Coglobalism: The State of the Art
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Introducing Coglobalism.....
What does it mean.....????
Well I'm sort of caught in the concept and experience of it
therefore I am somewhat taxed to explain or define it for you
therefore I have assembled some reference
material for you to draw your own estimations and concept
as to what it may be.....
and perhaps you could share your take
mind you its some what of an expansive
concept so be sure to have some grounding
handy

A HEALTHY COGLOBALISM

CO = co-
pref.

1. Together; joint; jointly; mutually: coeducation.
2.
1. Partner or associate in an activity: coauthor; cofounder.
2. Subordinate or assistant: copilot.
3. To the same extent or degree: coextensive.
4. Complement of an angle: cotangent.


[Middle English, from Latin, variant of com-, com-.]


HEALTHY = health·y Audio pronunciation of "healthy" ( P ) Pronunciation Key (hlth)
adj. health·i·er, health·i·est

1. Possessing good health.
2. Conducive to good health; healthful: healthy air.
3. Indicative of sound, rational thinking or frame of mind: a healthy attitude.
4. Sizable; considerable: a healthy portion of potatoes; a healthy raise in salary.

healthi·ly adv.
healthi·ness n.

Synonyms: healthy, sound, 2wholesome, hale, 1robust, well, 2hardy, 1vigorous
These adjectives mean being in or indicative of good physical or mental health. Healthy stresses the absence of disease and often implies energy and strength: The healthy athlete biked twenty miles every day. Sound emphasizes freedom from injury, imperfection, or impairment: “The man with the toothache thinks everyone happy whose teeth are sound” (George Bernard Shaw). Wholesome suggests appealing healthiness and well-being: “Exercise develops wholesome appetites” (Louisa May Alcott). Hale stresses freedom from infirmity, especially in elderly persons, while robust emphasizes healthy strength and ruggedness: “He is pretty well advanced in years, but hale, robust, and florid” (Tobias Smollett). Well indicates absence of or recovery from sickness: You should stay home from work if you're not well. Hardy implies robust and sturdy good health: The hardy mountaineers camped in the Alps. Vigorous suggests healthy, active energy and strength: “a vigorous old man, who spent half of his day on horseback” (W.H. Hudson).

Usage Note: The distinction in meaning between healthy (“possessing good health”) and healthful (“conducive to good health”) was ascribed to the two terms only as late as the 1880s. This distinction, though tenaciously supported by some critics, is belied by citational evidencehealthy has been used to mean “healthful” since the 16th century. Use of healthy in this sense is to be found in the works of many distinguished writers, with this example from John Locke being typical: “Gardening... and working in wood, are fit and healthy recreations for a man of study or business.” Therefore, both healthy and healthful are correct in these contexts: a healthy climate, a healthful climate; a healthful diet, a healthy diet.


GLOBALISM = b-lzm)
n.

A national geopolitical policy in which the entire world is regarded as the appropriate sphere for a state's influence.

global·ist n.

GLOBALITY = globality noun. A worldwide, interconnected economy that ignores national boundaries.


Example Citation:
"For several years now, 'globalization' has been the mantra for the expansion of international trade and foreign investment and the integration of markets. But we are now beginning to see a reality beyond globalization—the world of 'globality.' This is not so much a process as a condition, a world economy in which traditional and familiar boundaries are being surmounted or made irrelevant."
—Daniel Yergin, "The Age of 'Globality'", Newsweek

Well where is your spirit of inquiry....
*sighs*
Well get out Mr. Dictionary then.....

Now before you go to far out or whatever....
I will attempt a qualification of sorts.
Consider Coglobalization as a condition of
Global Antinomies......
The specific antinomies in this instance
are the masculine and feminine.
Antinomies as you may know are opposite or contrary
aspects that are both legally valid and true though opposite.
Whether masculine or feminine are opposites is not
entirely clear but science most notably has distinquished
some very clear and basic differences between the
masculine and the feminine.
Therefore in the sense of Coglobalism....
the antinomies of masculine and feminine exist
with equality, truth and validity in the global realm
or sphere of this Earth hence coglobalism.

[MacDawg]

Oh... NOW I get where you are coming from...
Don't I feel stupid! :o

They might also investigate the
antinomies of nation or state vs globalism
I came across a good article from New Zealand

just go to google.com and enter "global antinomy"....

Concise - Expressing much in few words; clear and succinct.

floccinaucinihilipilification - which means "the action of judging something to be worthless"

Wasteland - A place, era, or aspect of life considered as lacking in spiritual, aesthetic, or other humanizing qualities; a vacuum: a cultural wasteland.

OK, I'll take the bait and bite Swanny...

Lets assume that you really are trying to engage in a truly meaningful conversation, which apparently most of us doubt, but lets assume you are.

Here are my sincere suggestions,

1) Don't talk down to the forum, that is, don't try to come off as an elitist, intelligensia, that is trying to educate the uniformed masses

2) Don't talk in definitions, comparisons, etc. and don't appear to be trying to simplify your superior thought process to our redneck level. There are some pretty smart folk around here.

3) Use plain language and say what you mean. That doesn't mean you have to simplify, just don't try to talk in riddles. If you want to engage a conversation on the merits and synergy of globalism over nationalism, that's fine. If you want to discuss the "ying and yang" of it, we can go that route too. We can talk intelligently pro and con about all of it, however, it probably belongs in the Political Forum more than the community forum.

4) State your propositions clearly and concisely and make your case. Back it up with clear, coherent arguments or facts. Throw in just a little humor or controversy here and there and sit back and let the thread take on a life of its own.

5) Have a thicker skin and don't get your feelings hurt. You asked for everything you have gotten here so far. You were fortunate that wdlove stopped in... honestly, if edesignuk or Sun Baked ever drop by, you will get a proper welcome ;)

There, that's my advice, if you truly want to discuss things in a meaningful way.

I have to say though, I have my doubts about the sincerity of the posts. I agree with kettle the whole thread probably belongs in the Wasteland.

Well thankyou for your candor Macdawg
actually to be honest I have no idea what
I'm doing but as Einstein said....

It wouldn't be research then would it?"

I could offer other excuses for my strange methods
I suppose but they would be somewhat
selfincriminating.....
but thanks again for your candor and honesty
I see such as having "valueable consideration"

OK swanny, after checking your other posts at Lover's Lament (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=98267) and Jupiter and Venus sketch (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=98274) I have to confess that you are an "interesting" character.

However, without some further clarifications and explanations, your threads are going to go unanswered and unrecognized.

If you want meaningful dialogue, you have to give us a little more to work with here and in the other threads.

Do you have any friends?

[swanny]

Do you have any friends?

Friends ..... interesting concept......
yes fire is my friend....
and tobbaco as well....
as you see I do not keep particularly
good company...
honest I'm not trying to be cryptic
at least not consciously....
well hmmmm not sure what it is I am deficient in
perhaps I have not smoked enough pot or drunk
enough beer....
well poverty does not actually make a good calling card
but enough about me......
well coglobalism like I say its a tough nut to crack
I am just trying to wrap my head around it myself....
I guess my "approach" is too intimidating or forward
or uncouth perhaps....
some other leads I have on the topic are
1. New Earth Cycle
2. Global Masculine
3. Global Feminine
4. Planetary Vibrational shift
5. Anthroposphere

Unless you ask me a general or specific question
I am unsure of how to proceed....
Perhaps I shouldn't have brought it up
I have some song in the Music thread up
top perhaps more fitting although the one is somewhat
out of key Link = http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=98260

No chance you could cut some slack aye?
This technical stuff isn't really my forte
Lousy in math you know

[swanny]

Heres a Link to the "New Earth Cycle"
Link = http://www.texfiles.com/features/prophecies.htm

There doesn't appear to be much info available
on it but it does to appear to have origins in
Native American and Chinese Lore.....
It is somewhat difficult to seperate it at other
levels from the abudance of "new age" stuff
that has prolificated on the net so it will be difficult to
"substantiate" but I suspect it is tied
in somewhat to this "stigmergy" of coglobalism.

[MacDawg]

Dadgummit Swanny I've tried to help you here, but you aren't listening!

If you want people to respond, then don't just post information about something nobody knows about or cares about, you have to state your view, your opinion, your passion, etc. Then people will either agree with you or disagree with you.

Right now all they are doing is "yawning".... ho, hum... another newbie

Try these sure fire opening lines, guaranteed to stimulate conversation...

I think coglobalism rocks! The new twist of Native American and Chinese lore just proves how superior Longhorn will be to OSX!

I think if John Kerry had emphasized his stand on coglobalism more, he would have kicked Bush's a**

Anybody know how I can make the new coglobalism ying/yang graphic my avatar???

Hee hee ha.... you guys....
You are somewhat okay and interesting yourselfs....

Statistics and studies have indicated though that
using coglobalism after flossing can greatly
improve ones sex life.....
as well as battling plague and gingivitis.....
but please consult your physician before
utilizing this method....

OK, you are getting closer now...

If you can substantiate that it increases penis size, then you might have something going for you.

There was much coglobalism on Saturday morning in the Regent St opening queue.

Apple spoke to Starbucks. Starbucks opened early, provided free use of their powerpoints, toilets and gave us free filter coffee... in return for us clutching their cups in the front of the Apple Store when everyone walked by.

Molton Brown also picked up on it being a good idea (and the fact that many of us had been there overnight) and came by with freebie shower gel!

Hmmm Yes very diabolical and interesting as well
but its just a guess but do you suppose we're perhaps
straying somewhat off the topic
not that coglobalism isn't flexible
It slices and dices and juilians as well
and comes with a free oven mitt....

hmmm
What was the question?

Sir ?????

[rueyeet]

hmmm
What was the question?I think that was precisely our problem with your initial post. There's a bunch of disorganized exposition and definitions and such, but in the end, you're not actually saying anything. The post can basically be reduced to "Coglobalism, how 'bout it." Well, WHAT about it? (or as my tenth grade English teacher so often and heartlessly said after reading our essays, So what?)

Let me give you an honest answer: Before this I'd never heard of the concept, and looking at your posts it sounds like something someone came up with while on LSD, smoking waaaay too much pot, or deep in the throes of making up cool-sounding New-Agey words. It sounds like the entire thing, being reductionist again, can be summed up by the proverb "It takes all kinds to make up the world." Which, being a gigantic Duh of an obvious thing, doesn't merit much in the way of discussion, in my mind.

Of course the world is a dynamic system in which alternate and opposing ideas, nations, and attributes balance against each other. Again, Duh. Putting all that fancy wordiness around that is gilding the lily; and what, did they only just notice this, anyway?

Give us a point of view, or meaningful insight, or a theory or hypothesis on your topic, and there would be something to respond to. Otherwise, you've just posted a set of links and definitions on something you're evidently very excited about, but have given us no reason to be interested in. That's what MacDawg meant.

[swanny]

ahhh I see .....
so what your saying is the combo of
co + globalism is not self evident
and you're saying that meanings and definitions
in and of themselves ....
are not logical and self evident as well
and that I have to dumb up or down
the literal defintions.....
hmmmmm
I see ..... well
I suppose experience comes into the equation
as well and ones understanding of the meaning
and definitions of words but you see that is perhaps
the problem as I collect and read dictionaries
for fun......
I have a love of words then I suppose
could be a deduction here....
so what you're saying is hmmmm
this isn't normal....
ahh so you're saying I'm not normal
or this behavior is not normal

well thankyou
I would agree....
Is that not permitted in this forum
or does one have to be normal to participate
well I suppose it would be normal to be normal
and participate normally
hmmm but what is normal.....
what thats a redundant and retorial
question.....

so what am I saying

I swanny am in love with words .....
sort of .....
so there

[rueyeet]

Reciting the dictionary isn't a good start for a discussion. Simply posting long definitions doesn't give anyone else anything to build on. Definitions are indeed logical and self-evident, but if it's self-evident, what more can anyone else say? So, okay, co + globalism and So What? Was there a question, a position, an opinion, anything anyone could respond to there?

It's not unusual to have a love of words, but most people like to put the words together and have them mean something to someone else. Otherwise, you aren't communicating. If no one can understand what you're saying or why it matters, all the words in the world are useless, and that has nothing to do with normalcy.

Frankly, to me it sounds mostly like you're posting to hear yourself think, not to engage in any true exchange of ideas. We comprehend your responses, but they don't make sense.

[swanny]

Well perhaps you are correct
but true exchange of knowledge
is not simply about agreeing or disagreeing
with others it is about communicating
and exchanging so as to facilitate
"understanding" not merely agreement
or disagreement so what?
Well to me understanding is much more
relevant or mutual understanding than
mere agreement or disagreement
it doesnt matter if one agrees or disagree
unless there is some relevant understanding
going on..... true I suppose we are at different
places in our heads.....
It seems some are content to play a game of
agreement and disagreement but its understood
that any real insights or knowledge aren't the point
it is simply a banter back and forth which is
perhaps not a bad thing..... social grooming
I think its called but it is not true communication
anyway I have enjoyed sort of this expose
you have helped me to assess my inappropriate behaviour
I guess.... I will depart if you wish .....
it happens

[Mr. Anderson]

I think that in the future you might benefit from full complete sentences instead of a list of phrases parsed out as a post.

This is going no where and attempts as help have not led to any constructive discussion....

Try a different approach and topic next time, or just reply to other posts/threads till you get the hang of how discussions flow here....
