      Much research clearly seems to proves the advice in this article and Sheryl Sandberg's family-oriented practise is wise. I suggest you stop if you also are requiring your staff to do it too! As a "recovering Type 'A' workaholic", I speak from experience because I couldn't work, at all, for over 5 years after the dis-stress on my body, mind, emotions, will, and spirit caused a life-threatening event in my life in 1995. gfp (2012-05-03)

      It also doesn't hurt to ask the manager to discount his/her regular "meat-in" price to be fair. But, don't be surprised if s(he) says no because there may be extra effort for the kitchen staff to meet your request. gfp

  • I can’t stress this enough: Pour on the “please” and “thank you”. As long as you have a good attitude, a restaurant will usually be happy to accommodate you.

  • In other words, are the Greens looking after the dolphins, or are the dolphins looking after the Greens?
  • Green is the natural world view of what sociologists call the ‘New Class’.
  • it is a disproportionately powerful class; it is also an ambitious class and frustrated class.’

  • Oliver (being left wing) decided to edit President Eisenhower’s original sentence, to remove an equally dire warning about the growing influence of the ‘scientific-administrative complex’.
  • the influence of the military-industrial complex has been exaggerated, compared to the scientific-administrative complex, which represents ‘an intermingling of government, science and the university, unprecedented in American history.’
  • ‘The growth of [public] research and development funds, particularly after 1956 has multiplied the claimants of funds for science.  Universities have become active political entities in the search for money. Scientists and engineers have started hundreds of profit and non-profit companies to do research and evaluation.

      And the biggest disgrace in this "big grab" by the "Scientific-Administrative Complex" is the so-called "War on Cancer" which has bilked billions from a public terrified by the "C Word". All the so-called "experts" knew the natural cure for cancer over 40 years ago when the Scientific-Administartive Complex launched, with the help of bumbling government bureaucrats, "The War on Cancer". Billions of raised, charity dollars later, we have a bigger problem with cancer and more people dying horrible deaths than ever. Meanwhile "researchers", "all wellness societies' management", and three different "physician specialities" are making huge salaries . The Scientific-Administrative Complex will NEVER find a pill or a treatment cure for cancer ...never mind the fact that only God "cures"... because you can't cure a lifestyle or genetic problem with a pill or a treatment. And we all know that the majority of cancers result from lifestyle issues. gfp
  • a bureaucracy inevitably tends to develop and articulate its own vested interests. 
  • Galbraith says, ‘the educational and scientific estate is becoming a decisive instrument of political power.’   And he reminds us that this New Class, ‘owes its modern expansion and eminence to the requirements of the planning system.’
  • And if no problem can be found, then there must be the threat of a problem – they call it the precautionary principle. 
  • Just as nature abhors a vacuum, every unregulated activity taunts them. 
  • ‘Modern, liberal secular society is based on the revolutionary premise that there is no superior, authoritative information available about the good life or the true nature of human happiness, that this information is implicit only in individual preferences, and that therefore the individual has to be free to develop and express these preferences.
  • “new class” is not easily defined but may be vaguely described.  It consists of a goodly proportion of those college-educated people whose skills and vocations proliferate in a “post-industrial” societ

    The so called "Climate Crisis" is a green-washing application of "The Precautionary Principle" by the new "Scientific-Administrative Complex" in this author's opinion. And they're one scary group with more clout even than the Military-Industrial Complex". It matters not one jot if it's getting cooler or warmer. There must be a problem, the problem must be industrial capitalism (ie, freedom), and the solution must be more State control ...of course. gfp (2011-11-30)
