🔗 VanMoof S3

-

A €2000 e-bike that offers 'next-generation' technology. Apart from the e-bike technology with a 60-150km battery range and the sleek design where the battery is embedded inside the frame, it offers hydraulic disc brakes, GPS, smartphone app, anti-theft technology and an electronic gear shifter.

All of the above is incredibly impressive but stands against the '[[Just Ride|https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0074QGFES/]]' philosophy and the spirit of bikes that they are essentially simple machines that are accessible and easy to fix. Close up photos show proprietary screws, you can't service these bikes at your local bike shop. These bikes are more of descendant of the motorbike or a Segway.

It is ironic that the brand gained some marketing after their ad was banned in France. The [[ad …

🔗 Lebanese Psychological Association LPA's statement (2013)

-

🔗 Position Statement on Therapies Focused on Attempts to Change Sexual Orientation (Reparative or Conversion Therapies) (2000)

-

The validity, efficacy and ethics of clinical attempts to change an individual's sexual orientation have been challenged. To date, there are no scientifically rigorous outcome studies to determine either the actual efficacy or harm of "reparative" treatments. There is sparse scientific data about selection criteria, risks versus benefits of the treatment, and long-term outcomes of "reparative" therapies. The literature consists of anecdotal reports of individuals who have claimed to change, people who claim that attempts to change were harmful to them, and others who claimed to have changed and then later recanted those claims.

  • Theories at odds with APA position that homosexuality is a mental illness
  • Theories integrate old psychoanalytic theories with religious beliefs.
