Regarding: "...American Catholics helped to elect an administration that has been the most stubbornly unfriendly to religious believers, institutions, concerns and liberty in generations,” he said."
- Now Archbishop Charles relates the core of his perspective, the lens through which he interprets the secular world in which he lives.
- He is so angry at American Catholics helping to elect an administration who he accuses as being the most stubbornly unfriendly to religious believers, religious institutions, and religious liberty that he is completely unable to read emails referencing anything catholic without gall.
- No doubt the hard hard hard stone in the center of this anger is that no one in this country, because of religious liberty, thinks that a bishop or the bishops are the best sources of information about what it means to be catholic in a secular society, and how a catholic balances religion, faith, and belief within that society. | 0 | en |

Were the Washington political fatcat prostitutes elected by Americans or by Israelis? If our bribed and treasonous neo con floozies and flunkies want to send taxpayers dollars over to Israel they should resign and move over to Israel. I used to feel sorry for them for their 6 million murdered in their holocaust. But as a Native who knows 100 million Natives were slaughtered here so the illegal aliens could steal Native resources and lands, I see the same ilk of illegal leeches and parasites from colonial run countries could send the Palestinian Natives to concentration camps while the invaders and occupiers could steal their natural gas fields.
I remember when the USS Liberty was deliberately bombed and torpedoed by the Israeli's while it was sailing in international waters. While steaming to the rescue, the 6th fleet was deliberately called back from going to the rescue of the surviving United States Navy sailors as they were being machine gunned in the water | 0 | en |
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a target substance detecting element, a target substance detection apparatus and a target substance detection method adapted to cause a target substance, e.g. proteins and DNAs, in a specimen to react highly efficiently with captors fixed to a piece of metal to improve the sensitivity of detection of the target substance.
2. Related Background Art
A number of markers (marker genes) of specific diseases such as cancer, hepatitis, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis and so on exist in blood. The concentration of a specific protein increases in a subject when the subject contracts any of such diseases from the level observed in the healthy body of the subject. Therefore, it is possible to detect any of such serious diseases in earlier stages of contraction by monitoring the related proteins. Thus, techniques for monitoring proteins are expected to be used effectively in the next generation. One of the known techniques for analyzing unprocessed and unrefined proteins is based on a sensor for identifying a specific chemical compound by utilizing the biological ligand-analyte interaction.
Several types of sensors are known to date. Known sensors include those that utilize fluorescent immunoassay, those that utilize magnetic immunoassay and those that utilize plasmon resonance. However, all of them have a common step of fixing a ligand to the surface of the sensor and causing it to be selectively bonded to the analyte in an object of detection in a highly selective and sensitive manner in order to eliminate impurities and highly efficiently fix the desired proteins to the surface of a substrate. In the case of fluorescent immunoassay, a second ligand that is marked by a fluorescent dye is bonded to a ligand-analyte complex and the fluorescent dye is energized to observe the quantity of fluorescence and hence the concentration of analyte. In the case of magnetic immunoassay, a second ligand that is marked by a magnetic bead is bonded to a ligand-analyte complex to observe the change in the magnetic field and hence the concentration of analyte. In the case of plasmon resonance, the concentration of analyte is observed on a ligand-analyte complex formed on a metal thin film or a metal fine particle by utilizing the fact that a metal plasmon highly sensitively reacts to the change in the refractive index of the surface substance.
Japanese Patent No. 3452837 discloses a plasmon resonance sensor adapted to fix Au fine particles to the surface of a glass substrate and detect the change in the refractive index of a solvent or the extent of antigen adsorption in an antigen-antibody reaction. A sensor according to the cited invention can be arranged in a narrow place and advantageously be used for a specimen of any form.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-93558 discloses an apparatus for highly efficiently detecting the process where an object of measurement and a specific substance are bonded to and dissociated from each other by combining diffraction grating type SPR (surface plasmon resonance) with a micro channel chip to minimize the quantity of introduction of a specimen and washing liquid.
There is a document disclosing a method of preparing core-shell type fine particles by coating ferrite with gold and observing optical characteristics (absorption spectrum) thereof (NANO LETTERS, 2004, vol. 4, No. 4, p 719-723).
With the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-93558, diffusion-controlling due to the appearance of concentration gradient of the target substance is suppressed by injecting a specimen into a very small flow path and transferring it by liquid in order to cause the target substance to highly efficiently react with captors. Then, the concentration of the target substance captured by the fixed captors is detected by detecting the change in the plasmon resonance. In other words, the cited invention requires a special structure for suppressing diffusion-controlling due to the appearance of concentration gradient of the target substance when the specimen is brought to contact with the surface where plasmon resonance is generated. In other words, the conventional art needs improvements. | 0 | en |

The author suggests that lack of CO2 emissions is an important reason to keep nuclear alive, but then opposes any policies that place any value on it (i.e., the IL and NY state subsidy policies - very small subsidies, much smaller than those given to all renewable projects). Sorry, there is no justification for assigning no value to emissions reduction in power markets. Sounds like a classic diversion, i.e., saying you care about something, but opposing all policies to address it for the foreseeable future, and talking about some future technology saving the day at some point.

I have nothing against folks making money. I do think they should pay taxes, since they live in a country, not a kingdom.
Our disagreements stem from a profound difference of values and consequently, what we think a collection of citizens is all about; indeed, what life is all about.
If it is just to see who can accumulate the most money, or for each person to maximize their self worth in money--- it's a pretty empty place, morally, emotionally, and philosophically.
Men (or women) that do all they can to pay little taxes and then make a PUBLIC spectacle of "doing good" are contemptuous. In the end, it's all about them, their largesse. I believe somewhere in the bible it admonishes givers not to let the left hand know what the right is doing. That's quite a contrast from having it splashed all across the country in every available media.
But we disagree, profoundly, MC. Recent studies show we indeed may trace our differences to genetic predispositions. | 0 | en |

Updated: 2/3/16
This past weekend was the Secular Social Justice Conference, an event focused on analyzing and seeking secular solutions for real-world social ills through a secular lens. What’s more, the discussions had little to do with god beliefs or religious ideation but were nevertheless informative and engrossing to the diverse group of atheist attendees.
There was no need to bash Abrahamic religions or their adherents.
There was no need to cite reason #2131085 why there is no god entity.
There was no need to feign intellectual superiority over the religious.
There was no need to assemble around facile mantras like “religion poisons everything.”
We—organizers, panelists, and participants—came into the space with the implied virtue of atheism and knowledge of the adverse effects of certain religious ideologies. Rather than reaffirm or hover over these conclusions, SSJCon displayed a refreshing evolution beyond the mainstream agenda and complacency I’ve encountered many times previously.
I’m not denigrating the content of previous conferences and meetings. I truly appreciate them for what they were. However, when it comes to substance, I found SSJCon to be the most informative and probing atheist-oriented event I’ve attended in that it addressed widespread social disparities deeply rooted in the fabric of this country.
SSJCon organizer Sikivu Hutchinson began the event by fleshing out the reasons for intersectional social justice activism. Her opening remarks focused on this progressive counterculture juxtaposing the established #atheismsowhite institution. Afterward, we were treated to panel discussions that featured a mix of brown and black academics, atheist group organizers, and direct action social activists.
Live tweeting also captured some notable points throughout the two-day meeting addressing relevant matters both within and beyond atheist circles.
Here’s an very brief summary of each panel:
“Feminism(s) of Color and the Secular Movement”
• Feminists of color from all different backgrounds relay their shared struggle and lived experiences when it comes to the ubiquity of being “othered“ as well as the dearth of reason when it comes to encountering mistreatment within secular spaces.
“Humanism and Hip Hop”
• Teased out philosophical aspects and cultural relevance of hip hop, the ways hip hop and humanism are connected, and the value the hip hop tradition holds for humanists.
“Finding Justice in an Economic System that Proclaims Financial Opportunity for All”
• Highlighting the necessity of economic justice and ferreting out discrepancies within the imagined American Dream while scrutinizing problems related to homelessness, universal healthcare, college access, and distribution of wealth.
“LGBTQ Queer Atheists of Color and Social Justice”
• Queer activists on the frontline of LGBTQ, Black Lives Matter, and atheist social movements relay their experiences of having their queer, Black, and atheist identities marginalized and erased in various settings within these movements. Also highlighted: combating the issue of HIV-criminalization.
“What’s Race Got to Do With It? Racial Politics and Intersectionality in the Atheist Movement”
• Activists from all corners of the atheist subculture appraise the impact race, racism and white supremacy has on present-day social institutions, including politics and the secular community. They examine and share keys to increase diversity and social progress.
The final day mainly consisted of viewing a film produced by Daniel Myatt (Black Skeptics Los Angeles) titled “Walter Walk with God.” Myatt’s film tells the story of recent Christian convert Walter Walk who believes he’s been divinely ordained to evangelize Los Angeles’ Skid Row. This was followed up with an in-depth Q&A and analysis.
This weekend was about self-examination, listening, developing effective allyship, and personal and community growth.
Of course, not all atheists are open to introspection. Many don’t want to challenge beliefs and values they hold that comply with or reinforce various systems of inequality.
It will be these individuals who believe the social, economic, and political deprivations of marginalized groups aren’t important. Some say this outright. Others convey this calloused position by labeling certain forms of privilege a myth (while maintaining religious privilege is absolutely a thing).
Others resort to defensive moves and lash out against those who bring up disparities they prefer to not think about. Others resort to denial or willful ignorance and favor mocking those who voice their anxiety and frustration over mistreatment. Others criticize without even grasping the ideas they’re criticizing. Others remain incurious and prefer silence and overlooking these matters since these inequalities don’t directly affect them.
In more recent years, I’ve become acquainted with an ever-increasing number of atheists who come from disenfranchised identities (women, queer, people of color, etc.) who have grown disillusioned with the status quo. They’re tired of the stagnant nature of secular (both atheist and humanist) groups or organizations that choose to downplay or disregard the significance of issues that were openly and readily confronted at Secular Social Justice.
Sunday, Alex Gabriel wrote about The Other Movement. This is something Greta Christina described in more detail early last year, contrasting the differences between what’s commonly referred to as New Atheism and this “other,” more progressive and socially responsible atheist movement.
And yes, I dare say “more progressive.” A progressive is one who is actively engaged in social reform. A progressive isn’t one who rests on their laurels. Progressives desire to be catalysts for substantive change. This divergence of ideas between mainstream-oriented and social justice-oriented atheists has been detected for years by Sikivu Hutchinson and also sensed by Roy Speckhardt (American Humanist Association, Executive Director), among others.
Commenting on this second movement, Greta remarked this movement is about “just getting on with the business of creating atheist communities and an atheist movement that welcomes and supports a wide variety of atheists, and that works to make the world better in ways other than just talking about why God doesn’t exist.”
I’m not saying most atheists are horrible. That would be unfair. I’m also not saying all those associated with mainstream atheist activity don’t also care about certain social justice issues to some extent.
As Greta’s article teases out, there’s certainly overlap. What we’re discussing here is an unstated ethos that far too many atheists embrace that manifests as apathy or antagonism. It’s this element that shouts down calls for progressive improvements and disrespects the humanity of others. It’s this element that makes certain atheist and even secular humanist spaces hostile, especially when whiteness or maleness is critiqued or decentered. As a result, those who would prefer to stay eventually leave these kinds of environments due to being alienated.
Meanwhile, there are other atheists who do care and don’t want to contribute to secular spaces that tacitly or explicitly promote exclusionary values. No, they aren’t perfect, but they refuse to diminish the importance of social change. These are the kinds of nonbelievers who took part in Secular Social Justice this past weekend in hopes of creating a more charitable culture. I co-sign Alex Gabriel’s sentiments: This is my kind of movement.

The citizens of our nation has alway risen to defend our principals. The Revolution, and the Civil War comes to mind. The founders were well aware of what the over reach of government could do, and yes they provided a mechanism to remedy that over reach. It is my deepest hope to not live long enough to see another. But the riots in Milwaukee where the BLM rioters targeted whites is more than troubling. It will be more troubling if those terrorists are not prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. | 0 | en |
If passenger trains had absolute priority over freight and respected timetables, I would consider the current train speed to be "high speed".

` == YOUR CONCEPT OR RACE IS LUDRICOUS == To ip 64.131, you are trying to impose `` one-drop rule myth``, hyperdecent and other racist thrash from the legacy of Jim Crow into a country like DR. Ernesto Sagas is a Dominican professor at CUNY,and not even him accepts that thrash. You showed yourself. You showed a picture of Collin Powell? hahaha. That's not what I meant by `` white-skin`` Dominicans. Collin Powell( a Mulatto, btw) is FAR from being `` white-skinned``. I placed the suffix `` -skinned`` on purpose. I meant by that, is that even when there is a mixture, the amount of European blood is much larger, thus giving the person `` White skin`` and more European-like characteristics. Not somebody looking like Simbad. Ex:link title, [http://www.hoy.com.do/article.aspx?&id;=18092# link title. These people passed as White during the colonial period. If they have a grandfather looking like Collin Powells, then they cannot they are `` white`` like some Viking let's say. But i'm wondering how come nobody is calling Bill Clinton a `` mestizo`` since he had a Cherokee grandmother?? hmm. Nice North American double-standards, one-drop only applies when it comes to African decent only. Anyways, I'm not here to discuss the `` screwed up concept of race`` in other countries, but the reality of DR. The concensus here among Dominicans, is that the `` 90% African decent`` is a vague statement, people that claim other heritages mixed, want to be classified as mixed, in the case of DR, as Mulattoes, because they DO VIEW themselves racially different from the Sammy Sosa-type Dominicans. platanogenius.` | 0 | en |

Here I see a disconnect with reality. Observance of the law is based on penalties. Life and history has taught that there has to be a penalty for breaking the law. Be it financial incarceration or that final, the death penalty. Yet the courts with the connivance of senators etc are attempting to remove the penalty phase Note the killer of Jeff Dusenbury is practically walking free. Drunk and drugged, under 21 is a crime with a penalty. Killing with a motor vehicle is a crime. Rehab was not offered as a penalty! There remains a price to be paid. Now where is Pete Kelly and his tale of crucifixion? He's supporting lowing the penalty phase! | 0 | en |

Robin is a DJ in New York and went to Hawaii to escape the urban hecticness. While in the jungle he decides to cut loose and loses his clothes to show off in his first amateur jerk off video for Island Studs. It doesn’t look like Robin spends much time in the sun up in New York. His skin is smooth and white unlike most of the other amateur island men. Robin had little trouble getting naked but needed a little help getting hard. A magazine and a porn video in the corner solved that problem real quick like. Robin jerks his cock and shoots his cum while watching the porn video. But the show isn’t over. He takes a very long piss out side. Every second of which is captured on film. For all of you out there that love watching guys pee, you’re going to love Robin. After relieving his bladder, Robin moves to the out door shower where he generously soaps up and continues to impress with every inch of his naked wet body. His hairless chest and stomach look so tempting all wet and covered in soap. | 1 | en |

This has been a lousy season in the respect that player discipline on the Broncos is what I would call lacking. The Bronco players, especially on defense, are all talk these days. I don't even know if there are any players still kneeling, but that alone has been a major distraction especially when you are playing losing football. Add all the penalties, misses, drops, missed tackles, lousy special team play, bonehead coaching, etc. spells lack of discipline to me and they lost it when Manning retired. Kubiak was losing it with the team and got out at the right time. I am sure Elway and Joseph have had and will continue to have long talks about it. They need a leader or 3 to step up.

== What is the flooding risk now that the Howard Hanson Dam has been deemed safe? ==
I heard from a government worker that the Army Corps of Engineers discovered the plans to the Howard Hanson Dam and it showed that tunnels were drilled underneath but a change in plans made the tunnels unneeded so they were filled with timber. The Dam was never damaged (or the damage was already fixed) and the only thing wrong with the project was that the useless tunnels, filled with rotten timber, collapsed. So does that mean that the flooding risk has been eliminated and there will be no ""Lake Kent""? That government worker commented that it was a total waste of billions of taxpayers' money.

Well, you make an excellent point. https://www.portlandgeneral.com/our-company/energy-strategy/how-we-generate-electricity The Portland electric utility claims that 47% of their power comes from fossil fuel and 26% is from "purchased" power with source unspecified. I erred in grossly underestimating the power currently provided by fossil fuels. Given the low cost of Columbia River power compared to fossil fuel power, it is a bit hard for me to understand why the utility generates so much of its own power from fossil fuel. In any event, the utility does use quite a bit of fossil power. Thanks for pointing out the error. My skepticism of this type of announcement remains, however, because the deadline is so far in the future that no one will remember the pledge when it comes due, and without fossil fuel and hydro maxed out, the source of continuous dependable power remains to be identified. | 0 | en |
I am constantly amused by people promoting the best English word for "consubstantialis".
A more important question (which is about the relationship between theological meaning and language) is whether "consubstantialis" is the best possible Latin translation of the original Greek of the Creed. | 0 | en |

"We don’t answer to him. We answer to the American people." Senator McCain, you and your fellow members of the Senate and Congress are neither answering, nor listening to the American people. If you were, you would be doing what we sent you to do, and what voters gave you a Republican president to do, which is fix the serious issues facing the country today. A screwed up health insurance system, an antiquated immigration system, a complex tax system, corruption, waste and fraud in the various departments, a crumbling infrastructure. No one sent you to Washington to snipe at the president, whoever he is, and opine about every media "gotcha", we sent you to improve things, pass legislation, work together and LISTEN to what we want. You don't have a clue what your constituents want in these bills or you would be using your seniority and influence to get them written, discussed in committee, amended, passed and signed. Quit whining about a president you despise and do your darn job! | 1 | en |

If this article had been written on the first of April I might have had more respect for it. Instead I find a mismash of the usual and tired refrain that "all things indigenous good" "all things non-indigenous bad". The author needs to get out more. Has he never heard of Galileo, Werner Heisenberg, Isaac Newton, Claude Monet, Leonhard Euler, or Molière? (and that only includes a few of the geniuses from my own European heritage.) Aboriginal "leaders" in this country have a small window now to figure out how they will join modern Canada and benefit from the opportunities it offers to all its citizens, irrespective of race and cultural background. As immigration changes the ethnic make-up of this country at an accelerating pace, how does the author with this naive narrative think his future will cope with hundreds of thousands of mandarin-speaking immigrants from mainland China? To quote just one example of the forces molding Canada going forward. | 0 | en |

“I know my own truth. I'm in a great relationship with a woman. Maybe before it used to bother me. Then I was like, ‘This is so stupid that this bothers me. Some of my best friends in the world are gay, and if this is bothering me, then that means I have an issue with that.’ Once I figured that out for myself, I thought, ‘I don't care what anyone thinks about me.’ That's why I think I've become an ally for the gay and lesbian community. I just got [an Ally for Equality Award] the other day in Atlanta. I've very proud of my role in the community. So say what you will.”
10 comments to “Glee's Matthew Morrison Says Being Mistaken For A Gay Man Is NOT An Insult! Quote Of The Day!!”
This is a very important point that needs to be made. A lot of people still "accuse" someone of being gay as an insult and then they either have to deny, because they may in fact not be and are offended, or they are and they truly may feel that they cannot be their true self. Well why be offended? Being called gay or lesbian should not be an insult. I'm glad Matthew Morrison is taking a stand for the GLBT community, especially as a straight man.
Matthew would be a wonderful addition to the LGBT community, but, it is just as wonderful that he is an evolved metrosexual who may help other straight men become more comfortable with their own sexuality. If you know you're not, the issue lies with the wreckless accuser(s).
Re: DSummerfan – You're an idiot. People do care and if you don't why bother commenting? How do you even know he's denying he's not gay because if you read his interviews and all, he's clearly not gay. He wouldn't get married to her if he was gay so he is not gay. | 1 | en |
The Wolf in the Southwest: The Making of an Endangered Species
The premier predatory animal in the Southwest, and certainly the most controversial, the wolf came to grips with European settlement, particularly the livestock industry, and lost. First in Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico, and finally in Old Mexico, the southwestern wolf was driven to extirpation; ironically, the last wolves were hunted down not long before the advent of laws—and a conservation ethic—that could have saved them. Drawing on reports of the U.S. government’s former Office of Predatory Animal and Rodent Control (PARC), and from accounts of wolf hunters themselves, David E. Brown has compiled the history of the wolf’s elimination. Included is a complete documentation of the eradication program, fascinating stories of the last few wolves that eluded hunters, and information on wolf biology from those who best knew its habits.
Since its first publication in 1983, The Wolf in the Southwest has proven itself as the single most valuable and informative reference to Canis lupus of the Mexican borderlands. Now, the descendents of the last wolves captured in Mexico once again roam portions of wilderness in New Mexico and Arizona. With reintroduction, this second edition contains a new Preface and Epilogue by David E. Brown, and a new Foreword by author and biologist Harley Shaw. Once again there are wolves in the woods, and just as in the days of the pioneers, people are taking sides. Love him or hate him, the wolf is again making history, and The Wolf in the Southwest is back in print. | 0 | en |

. . . the reason given was that the moderator may have been trying to have us avoid a contentious argument. Well, . . . . Isn't that why most of us come here, for reasonably civil, but contentious argument? I come, frankly, to correct and be corrected, to test and be tested. Isn't that how we arrive at truth? I assume that most of those who come here have the same reasonable reason for coming. Even when the libs here disagree with me, I learn something. What do I care whether the person teaching me is a lib or a conservative? I'd rather hear the truth from a lib falsehood from a conservative, even though I'm as conservative as the law allows. So it's for good contentious argument that we come. And yes, I know . . . sometimes I come to lecture. (You should see how bad I am in the flesh. Ugh! I'm working on that, trust me.)
Anyway, that's what happened. But put that aside. It's almost Christmas. Have a very Merry, light-hearted Christmas. Cheers. | 0 | en |

Mentioning Darwin gave up natural selection and became a Lamarckian
The article currently makes no mention of the historically important fact that Darwin himself converted from the natural selection theory of evolution to a Lamarckian environmentalist position in later editions of The Origin of Species, which went into 6 different editions by 1872. Hence I propose the following insert at the first Darwin quotation in the current section ‘Publication of the theory of natural selection’, which I also propose should be retitled ‘Publication of the Darwin’s theory of evolution’.
Proposed insert:
'However, even in the first edition of his book Darwin only claimed natural selection was the main means of selection, but not the only one. In the last sentence of its Introduction he said “Furthermore, I am convinced that natural selection has been the main but not exclusive means of modification.”
But by 1872 he had published six editions of the book with corrections and revisions, and in later editions in response to criticism of his theory of inheritance Darwin even gave up the theory of natural selection as the main selector of evolution, with its strong principle of inheritance, in favour of Lamarckian environmentalism, with a changing environment as the main selector. As C.D. Darlington wrote in 1950 in his Foreword to a new and first reprint of the otherwise unavailable first edition of The Origin:
""Let no one imagine, however, that, in the world of science, Darwin's theory has enjoyed an unchequered prosperity. On the contrary the dust of battle is only now beginning to settle on the hotly disputed ground....The most abiding source of trouble was that discovered by the Professor of Engineering at Edinburgh. Professor Fleming[sic] Jenkin pointed out in 1867, that any new variation appearing in one individual would be lost or swamped in later generations when that individual was compelled to cross with others of the old and established type, and its differences, as Darwin believed, blended in inheritance. Nature would never be able to keep any differences to select.
Darwin's defence against this objection was already prepared. He had hinted it in the first edition of The Origin of Species: at the end of the Introduction he had said that ""Natural Selection has been the main but not exclusive means of modification."" In later editions he hedged further. He fell back on the other means. These depended chiefly on the action of a changing environment: its direct effect in altering living things so as to suit it must be inherited. In adopting this view Darwin was giving up his own, and Wallace's, peculiar claim to originality: he was giving up the argument implied in the title of the book: and he was falling back on the discarded and disreputable theory of Lamarck.""
[p. xvii On the Origin of Species by means of Natural Selection first edition reprint in The Thinker's Library by Watts & Co, 1950.] '
But Darlington failed to establish Lamarck's theory was discarded or disreputable. In fact the theory of natural selection only became accepted in the mid-20th century with the ‘Mendelian-Darwinian synthesis’ in population genetics. But even by 1950 Darwinism was still not accepted in academia according to Darlington:
""In view of the triumph of his ideas it might be thought that Darwinism, in all civilised countries, would be taught as one of the foundations of thought, that in the universities everywhere it would be critically expounded and experimentally developed. That is true of its remote and general applications to such sciences as astronomy and geology. But where, as in its applications to ourselves, in the study of the genetics of men, and to the histories of nations, as exact knowledge of the principles of variation, hybridization and selection is required, we hear on every side nothing but confused and ignorant speculations. At the same time the foundation of Darwinism in the experimental study of evolution has largely been smothered in Darwin's own country. The Universities, with their museums and botanic gardens, are happy to forget what, in 1859, they were unable to resist. They contain no memorial of his work, and all the means of developing his doctrine they frustrate by an arrangement of teaching which the theory of evolution is not allowed to disturb. The old pedantic learning of botany and zoology, which Darwin treated as one subject, they continue to cleave asunder, burying the halves under their ancient schedules of instruction."" [‘’ibid’’ pxviii-xix]. '
I also propose the following edit of the article's introduction:
His 1859 book ‘’On the Origin of Species’’ posited natural selection was the main selector in the evolution and origin of species, but by its 1872 sixth edition Darwin had abandon | 0 | en |
Ross Coen I know several people who I had very civil discussions with about politics using facts to back up conclusions. Unfortunately many of those same civil people when on line became very uncivil. Some became downright disgustingly vulgar. It might be not having to look another human in the eye when you "discuss" issues. In any event it seems easier for people to become jerks when they post. | 1 | en |
I'm sick and tired of our outer-island-run senate using rail and any other excuse to rip off the residents of Oahu. The proposals they've been making over the past two years would have gouged us even more. Leaving the 10% skim in place is a scam.
As we learn more details about this TAT funding, I expect we'll see the same ugly pattern. That said, this bill appears preferable to the Kouchi/Inouye proposal to increase the skim to 20%.
Thanks Luke and Tokuda, hang tough. And PLEASE reorganize senate leadership. Enough already! | 0 | en |
