Judaism is like a Mac

a: Judaism ~
b: a Mac

What: "I went this morning for my One-on-One session, to learn more cool new features of my new laptop and MobileMe. At the end of my (awesome, fun, insert-positive-adjective-here) session, I got it: Judaism is like a Mac. Or an ipod, ipad, or whatever cool new device Apple comes out with." The linked article tries to connect the two.

Some German Stuff

a: Diffraction ~
b: reflection

What: "Diffraction is like reflection an optical metaphor. Yet, in contrast to reflection, diffraction neither refers to the metaphor of the mirror nor does it go along with the model of original and copy. Diffraction is about a heterogeneous history and about the resentfulness and binding chraracter of events, which have always already happened elsewhere." What does mean?

a: Molecular orbitals ~
b: atomic orbitals

What:

"The atomic orbitals also have characteristic shapes. For example a s orbital is spherically symmetrical, and a p orbital has two areas with a nodal plane between them. Molecular orbitals are like atomic orbitals, but spread throughout the entire molecule. Molecular orbitals are formed through a process of combining atomic orbitals. A molecular orbital with cylindrical symmetry around the internuclear axis is called a sigma orbital (because it looks like a s orbital when viewed along the axis and it has zero angular momentum around the internuclear axis)."
