User:Easter Monkey

Hello. Easter Monkey you may wonder? Well, the Cartoon Network in Asia had advertisements during the Chinese New Year that began January 22, 2004. It was the year of the Monkey, so the folks at cartoon network put some rabbit ears on a monkey and called him the easter monkey. My 3 year old latched on to that and it's been a family joke since...

Translated things that keep me up at night
From Shmuel Eisenstadt:

"Eisenstadt's research contributed considerably to the understanding that the modern trend of a eurocentric interpretation of the cultural program developed in the west is a natural development model seen in all societies [...] the European model is only one: it was merely the earliest. It started the trend. But social reactions, whether in the USA, Canada, Japan or in Southeast Asia took place with completely different cultural reagents."

''Eisenstadts Forschungen haben maßgeblich dazu beigetragen, das Verständnis der Moderne aus jener eurozentrischen Deutung heraus zu lösen, die das im Westen entwickelte kulturelle Programm als natürliches Entwicklungsmodell aller Gesellschaften sah. [...] Das europäische Modell ist nur eines: das zeitlich früheste. Es vermittelt den Impuls. Aber die gesellschaftlichen Reaktionen - sei es in den USA, Kanada, Japan oder im südostasiatischen Raum - erfolgten mit ganz unterschiedlichen kulturellen Reagenzien''
