Hi All, my band (www.melsamba.com) is playing in a gig at the Czech Club, 497 Queensberry St North Melb, from 8pm tomorrow (Friday) night. Tix are only $10 and can be purchased at the door. If you want to shake your rump and enjoy drums and latin rhythms, then feel free to come on down, and enjoy Czech beer as well! ;) Some of the guys playing are regulars at the Night Cat on Sunday nights, so it's going to be awesome! :)

kim, you are one of those rare individuals who are perfectly "balanced" in both your hemispheric tendencies and your sensory learning preferences. However, there is both good news and bad news.

A problem with hemispheric balance is that you will tend to feel more conflict than someone who has a clearly established dominance. At times the conflict will be between what you feel and what you think but will also involve how you attack problems and how you perceive information. Details which will seem important to the right hemis- phere will be discounted by the left and vice versa, which can present a hindrance to learning efficiently.

In the same vein, you may have a problem with organization. You might organize your time and/or space only to feel the need to reorganize five to ten weeks later.

On the positive side, you bring resources to problem-solving that others may not have. You can perceive the "big picture" and the essential details simultaneously and maintain the cognitive perspective required. You possess sufficient verbal skills to translate your intuition into a form which can be understood by others while still being able to access ideas and concepts which do not lend themselves to language.

Your balanced nature might lead you to second-guess yourself in artistic endeavors, losing some of the fluidity, spontaneity and creativity that otherwise would be yours.

With your balanced sensory styles, you process data alternately, at times visually and other times auditorially. This usage of separate memories may cause you to require more time to integrate information or re-access it. When presented with situations which force purely visual or purely auditory learning, increased anxiety is likely and your learning efficiency will decrease.

Your greatest benefit is that you can succeed in multiple fields due to the great plasticity and flexibility you possess.

Hi All,

I just sent the following post to alternet.org, in a discussion headed:

"A Wake-Up Call for President Bush
By John Brown, Tomdispatch.com. Posted April 25, 2006.
In this open letter, a former American diplomat asks, "Mr. President: have you ever woken in the middle of the night, realizing what you've done to Iraq?"

Leader of the "free" world?

You know - everytime an American president sneezes the entire world ducks.

This is not true for any other person on the planet - he rules us all to a certain extent.

Therefore, in light of the fact it apparently takes somewhere between 5 and 50 years for US citizens to work out if their president is a moron or not, I propose that the Entire World be allowed to take part in US presidential elections.

That way you get the benefit of our opinions (especially since many of you don't even bother to vote or get much of an education), you get to be aware of reality 5-50 years earlier than normal AND you'll get a president that is not only aware of the fact that the Rest Of the World exists but he'll have to be nice to us instead of shitting on us. (And then we might even feel like being nice to YOU)

;)

I decided to do the test again, just to see some of the other diagrams, and just ticked the last choice of each question - and this is what I got!

Actually, we're more likely to spoon, but whatever... :}
