I have a real issue with the overvaccination of people and especially babies, but I may be forced to have 'up to date' immunizations for a job. That doesn't even seem legal to me, to force a vaccination that has potential side effects, but I think it is.
I'm not sure yet exactly which ones I'll need, but I would love any relevant info on them. Side effects, if there are any choices (I believe you can request a mercury-free flu shot), etc
Please don't say get a different job, that is something I've considered but that discussion is beyond the scope of this website ;)

This report offers an updated review of the various facets and the latest trends and differentials in sex selection in Asia. It includes a set of recommendations to combat gender discrimination and prenatal sex selection at the national and regional level. full review
This report is intended to be a tool for donor and developing country Governments, multilateral organizations and agencies, private foundations and NGOs to monitor progress in achieving the financial resource targets agreed to at the ICPD. full review
This report provides key messages on the relationship between population dynamics and sustainable development. It was prepared in the lead-up to Rio+20, the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, following extensive consultations and collaborations with thirteen sister agencies, civil society organizations, acedemics and the private sector. It served as the basis for over a dozen briefings and consultations prior to Rio +20. In addition to informing the conference, the report includes important lessons for discussions of the international development goals post-2015. It argues that: Population dynamics have a significant influence on sustainable development. Efforts to promote sustainable development that do not address population dynamics will continue to, fail. Population dynamics are not destiny. Change is possible through a set of policies which respect human rights and freedoms and contribute to a reduction in fertility, notably access to sexual and reproductive health care, education beyond the primary level, and the empowerment of women. full review
This brochure tracks resource flows for financing the ICPD Programme of Action, including the revised estimates that take into account current needs and costs. It provides facts and figures (based on data from 2006 and estimates from 2007 and 2008) to answer these questions: Why fund population activities? How much will it take to achieve the ICPD objectives? Where are we now? Who is funding what? Where is the money going? What countries are benefitting? How much are countries mobilizing themselves? How much do we need? full review
After more than a decade and a half, the Programme of Action of the International Conference on Population and Development remains a visionary, holistic and pragmatic blueprint for countries seeking to address many of the challenges they face. This was just one of the conclusions of the ICPD at 15 review, which is described in this publication. The review found that progress in implementing this blueprint has been multilayered, varied and uneven. full review
This publication answers these key questions: What is universal access to reproductive health? Why is it important? How far have we progressed? And where do we go from here? The report recognizes the complexity of the task, which deals not only with the most personal of decisions and cultural norms, but also with the daunting realities of bringing any form of health care to all, even in some of the world's poorest countries. full review
This publication looks at current data, trends and differentials in universal access to reproductive health, the second target of Millennium Development Goal 5 (MDG5.b). Focusing on the three indicators within that target (adolescent fertility, contraceptive prevalence and the unmet need for family planning), the report clearly demonstrates that intensified efforts are needed to extend reproductive health to all, and that quality data are essential to monitor progress and identify priorities for action. full review
Its title, 'Accelerating Efforts to Advance the Rights of Adolescent Girls,' describes the joint pledge by UNFPA, UNICEF, ILO, UNESCO, UNIFEM, and WHO to intensify support to advance key policies and programmes that empower the hardest-to-reach adolescent girlsin developing countries, particularly those aged 10 to 14 years old. full review
These briefing cards outline why decision-makers should prioritise saving mothers' and newborns' lives and key investments they should make in order to achieve that goal. Designed for use by policymakers, civil society groups, and advocates, the cards explain why the world needs to invest now in maternal, newborn, and reproductive health and the strategic actions needed to improve vital health services for mothers and their newborns in the developing world. full review
This booklet is issued in commemoration of the first 15 years of the 20-year Programme of Action adopted at the International Conference on Population and Development in Cairo. Using charts and graphs, it maps out progress, highlights disparities and calls attention to areas where accelerated action is needed to meet the commitments made in 1994. It also examines the links between the many areas of action outlined in Programme of Action and some of the associated costs. full review

Real acreage is apparently one of the best investments you can accomplish for abundance conception over time.

All markets are mainly afflicted by accumulation and demand. Appropriate now that abridgement of assurance is still axiomatic as the bulk of shares alter on the banal market. In my assessment the banal bazaar has become a bazaar disqualified by affect and manipulated by those who accomplish their money demography advantage of those emotions. Not a abode for the aside of affection or baby investors who can't allow to lose the bound arch (money) they accept to plan with.
Although absolute acreage is abhorrent for the contempo banking crisis it was absolutely the banking abetment of the mortgages by those aforementioned architect types I accredit to in the banal bazaar that acquired the crisis. In my assessment the absolute fundamentals of absolute acreage as an investment are still as solid as they anytime were and it will abide to be a abundant investment and abundance architect for years to come.

India's first truly global film is releasing coming weekend - unlike most bollywood nonsense, this is expected to be much better quality on a bigger canvas
Films like 'apocalypse now', 'platoon' etc were direct critical of war culture as well as indirectly critical of american foreign policy - neither the american govt nor any political party opposed them; 'passion of the christ' under the baton of fundamentalist crackpot Mel Gibson was anti-semitic to the core - no Jewish group protested against it; 'history of the world' parodied several historical figures including Moses et al - again noone protested; 'the guru' made fun of the Hindu 'guru' concept - noone protested.
but when a danish cartoon comes out depicting one certain religious head, the person who drew the cartoon and 10s of others bearing the same name as the cartoon creator, are under threat in Europe! and when a badly made movie on a certain religion comes out last year, the entire middle-east erupts in violence! when a certain Govind Nihalini (Indian film-maker) made a realistic 'Tamas' in the 1980s about the violence centred around India-Pakistan partition, the then ruling party in India hastily took it off the small screen for fear of losing the minority vote!
and now a mainstream Indian film allegedly hurting the sentiments of some people is receiving flak !
]]>according to Willam Dalrymple: 'I don't believe Muslims are a problem and Islam a threat'
would appreciate a rebuttal from Mr.Sam Harris on this!
the above interview comes right after the mutilation of Indian soldiers by the Pakistani army .
I'm now nearing the end of the book and have a few thoughts. And I must say, while somewhat satisfied that it's led me to think through my own concept of free will, I'm fairly disappointed, perhaps feeling a little taken for what I spent on the e-edition. The book, which I consider to be more appropriately called an essay, would have seemed okay as what Amazon calls a "Kindle Single" which would have been well-priced at $.99 to $1.99.
I can appreciate that Sam Harris has his background in neuroscience and all, and can bring a certain perspective to the concept of free will, but to treat his own search for a working definition as definitive in a wider environment, is a bit of a stretch.
I wish the internet, and Amazon, and this approach to marketing would have been available when I first graduated college back in the mid seventies and I might have taken a path to riches by publishing some reasonably well though out musings. Oh well. As I recollect, even Mark Twain died in debt, or so the story came to me, true or false.
In a different vein, I'm entertaining two thoughts about "Free Will": 1) that our range of options may be obviously limited, almost like being on an elastic leash, held in the hand or our circumstances, moving forward through time with us, and 2) an incomplete idea that what's really going on is some crucial fulcrum of time, where an unknown number of possibilities lie in the future become suddenly a fixed certainty of our past, although dependent even then on the verities of our memory and outer world record. The future possibilities increase in number with a further projection, and decrease with nearness to the present.
There's also the sense with certain words that a thesaurus comes into play, rather than the authentic utilization of a versatile vocabulary employed to most clearly share some worthy content with the widest audience. To make something sound more substantive or authoritative than it really is borders on a boastful ego at play. It can even be disrespectful.
And finally, the metaphor of the puppet necessitates the hand of a puppet master, which to me, opens a door to ironically inviting the presence of a higher power, however dressed in neuroscience. This would turn the essay from an exploration of free will to a definition of one person's higher power. It may even draw a sketch of the face of God. Funny.
I'm looking forward to sneaking a read of my daughter's copy of "The End of Faith." Maybe it'll shake me out of my obvious misunderstanding and lack of appreciation, or the as yet unread conclusion will do it for me.
Then another tragedy steps in. Children and their teachers, along with their killer, dead at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
I spent over 20 years as a secondary public school teacher trying my damnedest to do a good and qualitatively sound job. Sometimes to better and others to painfully lesser effect. I believed in the opportunity to educate our children in ways that would lead them, at least it appears to me today, to their becoming the sorts of adults who would be readers of books like those written and suggested by Mr. Harris and those whose work may be referred to or featured on the site. It was not an easy thing to do in the eastern Washington state high schools where I worked. It may even have led directly to the conflict with an administrator that ended my career painfully and disturbingly just over 10 years ago. I don't believe the present climate in education and reform would have made my job any easier, my intentions any more promising.
Another thing I tried to do was involve and value the presence and person of every student in the classroom. If it was time for discussion, I purposely would ask each and every student if he or she wished to say anything. Sometimes I think it may be the simplest of acts that can make the difference. I'm reaching, wondering if there is anything that can be done other than to simply brace for the next tragedy.
I've bled inwardly and outwardly ever since I left teaching, at times better and others less able to move beyond it. And here today, in the background, news from an elementary school in Connecticut continues.
I'm reading Free Will in these circumstances. And it starts out with an example of another, horrifically violent crime.
I'm hoping for others on this site, perhaps even Sam and those closest to him and this work, as they come to grips with such an overwhelming, and what seems to me to be pertinent, current event, to join in with some thoughts.
I've not watched a Meet the Press in ages until today. I think they did pretty well, considering. Yet I fear there will not be substantial progress.
I'm not confident I would have the ability to come to terms, to healthy resolution, in my somewhat isolated home, family, and community without the help of others I think might be the sorts of folks who are members of this forum.
I would hope, if this goes anywhere, that those who respond would do so with some restraint and at the same time depth. I hope I can practice what I preach, and would enjoy coming back to share my progress with the book, which I haven't but begun, and my progress toward a coalescing sense that our world can grow safer and healthier.
I can't bring any of them back, nor give any comfort to so many grieving family and friends. I can only hope to contribute toward a sort of meaningfulness that would come from anything helpful in preventing a repeat.
Robert E Giberson
Rural Winlock, Washington
I believe Sam Harris new book on "Free Will" has the potential to bring Agnostics like myself closer to an understanding of "How it works".
Being a long time member of a 12 step program (AA), I have been invoved with 1,000s of discussions about the AA 3rd and 11th steps ....
"Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him." and… "Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out."
I have participated in thousands of meetings,listening to people describe, the admittedly self contradictary process, of how they regain control of their lives through the practice of these steps. Although I don't know how it works or the exact nature (or even approximate nature) of the higher power that is involved, I have absolutely no doubt that doing so, can somehow work more transformative miracles than are described in any "Holy Book" from any religion.
Somehow, Sams' theory of "Self Will" fits into this process. I have to think and "pray" about it more, but I believe it may hold the key to many answers concerning the nature of reality and "How it works".
I would love to have Sam put his creative prowess to work on this area and would be glad to assist from the AA side in any small way that might be helpful.

I also think Owaku is more of a contributor than Yamaoka. Sound simply doesn't make a good game.
I could not disagree stronger.
Sound is an extremely important element to Silent Hill. It is one of those things that the series relies on in order to frighten and disturb the player. You can say what you want about his music, but Yamaoka was perfect at using sound in Silent Hill to scare the player. He knew when to use it and how to use it effectively in order to create a foreboding feeling of dread while exploring areas in the dark. It is an important trick in that bag of tricks I was talking about. As for him being more important than Owaku or Ito for that matter. Well, creating games is a collaborative effort. It's hard to say who is more important than the other, since each individual game designer brings his or her own unique style to the mix which contributes to the whole.
Yamaoka did stick around longer than the others, so of course he can't carry the weight of the series on his shoulders alone. But to say that his sound design is unimportant, imagine Silent Hill 1-4 without it. Hell, Silent Hill 1 wouldn't have been half as frightening as it was without Yamaoka's dissonant industrial score.
Yamaoka cut a lot of corners sampling from copyright free music. While sound is important there would be no STORY with out Owaku and therefore Owaku is more valuable than Yamaoka. (And Toyama.) As Homecoming proved, having a good music composer doesn't equal a GOOD Silent Hill game.
So do 99% of contemporary film, TV, and video game composers. People may think that "sampling" is cutting corners, but in the contemporary age of audio production most people are creating music via VST plug ins and sampling anyway.
I have done enough of my own sampling to understand that there is nothing wrong with it. Creating a collage of sounds still takes the know-how to understand what is effective and what works and does not work. And the problem with Homecoming was the least of all its music, but rather how it was implemented into the game. I never said that having a good composer equals a good game, just that sound is an important element to making a good Silent Hill game.
There is a major difference there.

Are you a 30-year-old virgin who has never been canoodled, never been kissed, never been asked out or, let's cut to the chase, never been in the thick of real action? Beyond an iota of doubt, you belong firmly to the past. So move on and get a life. It is never too late.
The 2012 TSI-ICMR sex survey reveals that an overwhelming majority of India's sexually-active urban teenagers – 90 per cent – lost their virginity well before they stepped into their 20s. Clearly, teenagers in India, a country that is experiencing a major 'youth bulge' in its population, are today discovering the pleasures of the flesh at a much earlier age than their parents did. Free mixing with members of the opposite sex, a general loosening of parental pressures, access to adult entertainment on the internet and elsewhere, and a gradual easing of age-old social taboos have set them free in a way that would have been nearly unthinkable just a couple of decades ago.
But have we not been aware of the changing sexual behaviour and practices of youngsters in this vast country for quite a while now? The TSI-ICMR survey only reinforces what we already know: Indians in the age band of 15 years to 24 years, the range that the United Nations recognises as "youth", are making the most of the new climate of freedom that exists in the country.
As many as 65 per cent of the respondents believe that the minimum age for having consensual sex should be either 18 years or more, underscoring the latent fact that while Indian youngsters are not averse to going the whole hog with their boyfriends or girlfriends whenever and wherever the opportunity presents itself, a conservative inner core probably prevents them from confessing that one's age is only a number while sex is a basic need that can wait for absolutely nothing. Coitus interruptus is out of the question when the urge bubbles to the surface.
This survey also establishes that high school and college students in India's metropolitan areas, despite their raging desires, are probably not as sexually active as they would want to be. A total of 60 per cent of those surveyed said that they have sex only once a month or after intervals that last even longer.
But no matter what the frequency of the act is, it would seem that urban Indian teens are overwhelmingly in favour of playing fair and square with their sex partners. Only 27 per cent of the respondents admitted that they have had more than one sexual partner simultaneously, while 83 per cent of them asserted that love was either "very important" or "somewhat important" in sustaining a long-term sexual relationship.
One crucial question: how aware are these teens of the consequences of their acts? Here, too, they do not seem to score all that badly. Just 27 per cent say they do not use any contraception while having sex. The fact that the remaining 73 per cent use either condoms or contraceptive pills as a precautionary measure points to a level of responsibility and awareness that is commendable.
Moreover, nearly half of these young sexual partners get condoms across the counter at a chemist's shop, suggesting a level of confidence that belies their tender age.
As the sexual revolution takes roots and spreads out in a diverse land where many social and economic fissures are a part of everyday reality, are we as a society prepared to handle the fallout?
As one of the reports on the following pages points out, the phenomenon of teen pregnancies is acquiring worrying proportions in India, putting girls in particular under severe physical and psychological strain.
As gynaecologists and counsellors grapple with the problem, India's sex education module has been coming increasingly under the scanner. How well informed and prepared are teenagers to handle an untimely pregnancy when neither their parents nor their teachers are equipped enough to keep pace with the delirious, if troubled, sexual awakenings of the wards in their charge?
More often than not, young lovers in this country are left to fend for themselves when problems erupt. It might come as a relief that 77 per cent of India's sexually active urban teens have said that they have never had to face an unwanted pregnancy. But the fate of the 23 per cent that have had to contend with the ramifications of going too far cannot be wished away.
What is worrying is that only 4 per cent of such couples have actually gone on to get married, while 12 per cent went in for an abortion and 7 per cent broke up.
Asked what they would do if the girl ever got pregnant in the course of a torrid affair, only 6 per cent of the respondents said that they would enter into wedlock. As many as 85 per cent would take recourse to the easy way out – an abortion. Only 1 per cent said they would dare to bring a love child into the world.
But this really is not about defiance and rebellion. In a country in which well over 30 per cent of the population is aged between 15 and 24 years, parents and guardians have a huge role to play in rectifying any distortions that might occur
as teenagers grope around for the right way forward in fulfilling their sexual needs. Unfortunately, 71 per cent teenagers in the Indian metros do not discuss sex-related issues with their parents or other members of the family. Only 9 per cent "regularly discuss" such issues at home. Alarming!
Is that the reason why cases of teen pregnancy, crimes of passion involving teenagers, date rapes and a panoply of misconceptions about the sexual act and its place in our lives are on the rise? While there can be no easy answers to such complex questions, read on as we attempt to get as close to the heart of the matter as possible…

text: I tried the ergo baby carrier for 4 days about 10 months ago and loved it!! We found out we are expecting another baby (no.3) and decided to invest in this carrier. I can use it COMFORTABLY with my 3 year old little girl and my 18 month old. I was using a Maya Wrap ring sling and a Moby Wrap before this purchase but this carrier allows me the use of my arms!! Which is greatly needed being a busy stay at home mom of soon to be 3. This carrier is very comfortable! It places the weight so well on the right places that you don't even feel it! So if you are thinking of trying the ERGO, I STRONGLY recommend it!! this will be worth its weight in gold (which is only 3 pounds if you count the box and booklet it comes with and the box it is shipped it!!)

Scholasticism is a method of critical thought which dominated teaching by the academics ("scholastics," or "schoolmen") of medieval universities in Europe from about 1100–1500, and a program of employing that method in articulating and defending dogma in an increasingly pluralistic context. It originated as an outgrowth of, and a departure from, Christian monastic schools at the earliest European universities.1 The first institutions in the West to be considered universities were established in Italy, France, Spain and England in the late 11th and the 12th centuries for the study of arts, law, medicine, and theology,2 such as the University of Salerno, the University of Bologna, and the University of Paris. It is difficult to define the date at which they became true universities, although the lists of studia generalia for higher education in Europe held by the Catholic Church and its various religious orders are a useful guide.
Not so much a philosophy or a theology as a method of learning, scholasticism places a strong emphasis on dialectical reasoning to extend knowledge by inference, and to resolve contradictions. Scholastic thought is also known for rigorous conceptual analysis and the careful drawing of distinctions. In the classroom and in writing, it often takes the form of explicit disputation: a topic drawn from the tradition is broached in the form of a question, opponents' responses are given, a counterproposal is argued and opponent's arguments rebutted. Because of its emphasis on rigorous dialectical method, scholasticism was eventually applied to many other fields of study.
As a program, scholasticism began as an attempt at harmonization on the part of medieval Christian thinkers: to harmonize the various authorities of their own tradition, and to reconcile Christian theology with classical and late antiquity philosophy, especially that of Aristotle but also of Neoplatonism.3 (See also Christian apologetics.)
Some of the main figures of scholasticism include Anselm of Canterbury, Peter Abelard, Alexander of Hales, Albertus Magnus, Duns Scotus, William of Ockham, Bonaventure and Thomas Aquinas. Aquinas's masterwork Summa Theologica, considered to be the pinnacle of scholastic, medieval, and Christian philosophy,4 began while Aquinas was regent master at the studium provinciale of Santa Sabina in Rome, the forerunner of the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Angelicum. Important work in the scholastic tradition has been carried on well past Aquinas's time, for instance by Francisco Suárez and Luis de Molina, and also among Lutheran and Reformed thinkers.

The terms "scholastic" and "scholasticism" derive from the Latin word scholasticus (Greek: σχολαστικός),5 which means "that [which] belongs to the school." The "scholastics" were, roughly, "schoolmen."
Early Scholasticism
The first significant renewal of learning in the West came with the Carolingian Renaissance of the Early Middle Ages. Charlemagne, advised by Peter of Pisa and Alcuin of York, attracted the scholars of England and Ireland. By decree in AD 787, he established schools in every abbey in his empire. These schools, from which the name scholasticism is derived, became centers of medieval learning.
During this period, knowledge of Ancient Greek had vanished in the west except in Ireland, where its teaching and use was widely dispersed in the monastic schools.6 Irish scholars had a considerable presence in the Frankish court, where they were renowned for their learning.7 Among them was Johannes Scotus Eriugena, (815–877) one of the founders of scholasticism.8 Eriugena was the most significant Irish intellectual of the early monastic period, and an outstanding philosopher in terms of originality.7 He had considerable familiarity with the Greek language, and translated many works into Latin, affording access to the Cappadocian Fathers and the Greek theological tradition.7
The other three founders of scholasticism were the 11th-century scholars Peter Abelard, Archbishop Lanfranc of Canterbury and Archbishop Anselm of Canterbury.8
In this period was the beginning of the 'discovery' of many Greek works which had been lost to the Latin West. As early as the 10th century, scholars in Spain had begun to gather translated texts and, in the latter half of that century, began transmitting them to the rest of Europe.9 After the Reconquista of the 12th century, Spain opened even further for Christian scholars, who were now able to work in 'friendly' religious territory.10full citation needed As these Europeans encountered Islamic philosophy, they opened a wealth of Arab knowledge of mathematics and astronomy.11full citation needed
At the same time Anselm of Laon systematised the production of the gloss on Scripture, followed by the rise to prominence of dialectic (the middle subject of the medieval trivium) in the work of Abelard. Peter Lombard produced a collection of Sentences, or opinions of the Church Fathers and other authorities.
High Scholasticism
The 13th and early 14th centuries are generally seen as the high period of scholasticism. The early 13th century witnessed the culmination of the recovery of Greek philosophy. Schools of translation grew up in Italy and Sicily, and eventually in the rest of Europe. Scholars such as Adelard of Bath travelled to Sicily and the Arab world, translating works on astronomy and mathematics, including the first complete translation of Euclid's Elements.12 Powerful Norman kings gathered men of knowledge from Italy and other areas into their courts as a sign of their prestige.13 William of Moerbeke's translations and editions of Greek philosophical texts in the middle half of the thirteenth century helped in forming a clearer picture of Greek philosophy, and particularly of Aristotle, than was given by the Arabic versions on which they had previously relied, and which had distorted or obscured the relation between Platonic and Aristotelian systems of philosophy.14full citation needed His work formed the basis of the major commentaries that followed.
The universities developed in the large cities of Europe during this period, and rival clerical orders within the church began to battle for political and intellectual control over these centers of educational life. The two main orders founded in this period were the Franciscans and the Dominicans. The Franciscans were founded by Francis of Assisi in 1209. Their leader in the middle of the century was Bonaventure, a traditionalist who defended the theology of Augustine and the philosophy of Plato, incorporating only a little of Aristotle in with the more neoplatonist elements. Following Anselm, Bonaventure supposed that reason can only discover truth when philosophy is illuminated by religious faith. Other important Franciscan scholastics were Duns Scotus, Peter Auriol and William of Ockham.
By contrast, the Dominican order, a teaching order founded by St Dominic in 1215, to propagate and defend Christian doctrine, placed more emphasis on the use of reason and made extensive use of the new Aristotelian sources derived from the East and Moorish Spain. The great representatives of Dominican thinking in this period were Albertus Magnus and (especially) Thomas Aquinas, whose artful synthesis of Greek rationalism and Christian doctrine eventually came to define Catholic philosophy. Aquinas placed more emphasis on reason and argumentation, and was one of the first to use the new translation of Aristotle's metaphysical and epistemological writing. This was a significant departure from the Neoplatonic and Augustinian thinking that had dominated much of early scholasticism. Aquinas showed how it was possible to incorporate much of the philosophy of Aristotle without falling into the "errors" of the Commentator, Averroes.
Late Scholasticism
Lutheran Scholasticism
Reformed Scholasticism
Following the Reformation, Calvinists largely adopted the scholastic method of theology, while differing regarding sources of authority and content of theology.
The revival and development from the second half of the 19th century of medieval scholastic philosophy, sometimes called neo-Thomism.
Post-Thomistic Scholasticism
Academic Scholasticism went into decline in the 1970s when the Thomistic revival that had been spearheaded by Jacques Maritain, Étienne Gilson, and others came to an end. Partly, this was because Thomism had ceased to be a living philosophy engaging the questions of the day, and had become a quest to understand the historical Aquinas, and also because after the Second Vatican Council, other theological schools came to the fore. Still, those who had learned Scholastic philosophy continued to have unresolved questions about how the insights of the medieval synthesis could be applied to contemporary problems. This conversation departed from the academic environment and entered internet discussion groups such as Aquinas,15 Christian Philosophy,16 and Thomism,17 and websites such as Open Philosophy,18 where it continues today.
Analytical Scholasticism
A renewed interest in the "scholastic" way of doing philosophy has recently awoken in the confines of the analytic philosophy. Attempts emerged to combine elements of scholastic and analytic methodology in pursuit of a contemporary philosophical synthesis. Proponents of various incarnations of this approach include Anthony Kenny, Józef Maria Bocheński, Peter Kingdisambiguation needed, Thomas Williamsdisambiguation needed or David Oderberg. As a pioneer part of this movement can be seen Analytical Thomism.
Scholastic method
The scholastics would choose a book by a renowned scholar, auctor (author), as a subject for investigation. By reading it thoroughly and critically, the disciples learned to appreciate the theories of the author. Other documents related to the book would be referenced, such as Church councils, papal letters and anything else written on the subject, be it ancient or contemporary. The points of disagreement and contention between multiple sources would be written down in individual sentences or snippets of text, known as sententiae.
Once the sources and points of disagreement had been laid out through a series of dialectics, the two sides of an argument would be made whole so that they would be found to be in agreement and not contradictory. (Of course, sometimes opinions would be totally rejected, or new positions proposed.) This was done in two ways.
The first was through philological analysis. Words were examined and argued to have multiple meanings. It was also considered that the auctor might have intended a certain word to mean something different. Ambiguity could be used to find common ground between two otherwise contradictory statements.
The second was through logical analysis, which relied on the rules of formal logic to show that contradictions did not exist but were subjective to the reader.
Scholastic instruction
Scholastic instruction consisted of several elements. The first was the lectio: a teacher would read an authoritative text followed by a commentary, but no questions were permitted. This was followed by the meditatio (mediation or reflection) in which students reflected on and appropriated the text. Finally, in the quaestio students could ask questions (quaestiones) that might have occurred to them during meditatio. Eventually the discussion of questiones became a method of inquiry apart from the lectio and independent of authoritative texts. In controversial cases, disputationes were arranged in order to resolve difficult quaestiones.19
There were two types of disputationes. In the "ordinary" type, questions (quaestiones) to be disputed were announced beforehand.citation needed The second type was the disputationes de quodlibet, in which the students proposed a question to the teacher without prior preparation and the teacher advanced a response.20 Students then rebutted the response, and the quodlibetal went back and forth. Someone took notes on what was said, allowing the teacher to summarise all arguments and present his final position the following day, riposting all rebuttals.citation needed
The quaestio method of reasoning was initially used especially when two authoritative texts seemed to contradict one another. Two contradictory propositions would be considered in the form of an either/or question, and each part of the question would have to be approved (sic) or denied (non). Arguments against the position taken would be presented in turn, followed by arguments against the position, and finally the arguments against would be refuted. This method forced scholars to consider opposing viewpoints and defend their own arguments against them.21

Pleeker Lawn Contest Last week the Lawn Contest com¬ mittee composed of Mrs. .1. r.,. Bradley, Mrs. K. S. JMitcliett, Miss E. Lufu Park, Mayor George .1. Price, Edvs-ard Hanc(«:k and Randolpli Smith, in¬ spected all the lawns competing for the prizes offered by the .Meeker Hardware Company. The following parties were contestants: Frank L. Medley, W. A. Karr, Clias C. Black- well. F. E. Goldsby, C. C. Ripley, E. 1). Hancock, E. F. Sheets and the B. &. O. Ry. We'might say without fear of successful contradiction that Mesdames Medley, Karr, Blackwell, Goldsby, Ripley, Hancock and Sheets are intltled to most of the credit for the beautiful lawns that the com¬ mittee had-tlie pleasure of seeing. The prizes offered by the Meeker Hardware Company were: »10 in gold for the best kept lawn and KMJ feet of hose for the second best. The lawns were all so well kept, the task of awarding the prizes was a difficult one forthe committee. When the bal¬ lots were counted it was learned that Chas. C. Blackwell received the tirst prize and was awarded the $10 gold piece and C. C. Ripley received the HiO feet of hose. The prizes offered for tlie best kept lawns this year has brought splendid results and we hope our business men and Individual citizens will follow the public spirit of those who were liber¬ al this year. The committee was con¬ tined to Inspecting the lawns In the contests, but every where they went many beautiful lawns were seen and admired.

Shriner Wins So far as Tuesday's eleation returns Indicate at this writing li. W. Shrln¬ er was elected about 800 over his Demtx-ratic opponent, Frank Farrell. Mr. Shrlner carried every precinct In thecounty and received about six votes for each one given Mr. Farrell. Mr. Farrell was not a candidate in reality, but permitted lils name to go on the ticket. Tlie results clearly show two facts, one Is that the peo¬ ple were favorable to the candidate who was by legal training qtialitled, and the other, tliat Republicans are eager to give a vote for their parly, while tlie Democrats are indifferent about doing so. It is a good omen and means Republican victory in l!)l(i. B. K. Club Entertained Miss Edith McEndree entertained the Louisville B. K. Club at her home In Flora Wednesday evening last week. The following meml>ei* of tlie club were pre.sent: The Misses Tedd and Nettie Speaks, Floy .lackson, Leiiora Crouglian, Isa Miirvin, Maud llonney, Mabel Erwin and Sadie McLane. The guests of the club were: Mrs. i'aul Murvln, and son I'aul and Mrs. Steven¬ son. Hon. Thos. S. Williams and S. M. Dailey brought the merry club to Klora in tlieir autos. A delightful evening was spent un¬ til a late hour when tlie guests took their departure, with good wishes for Ihe hostess. Good Crops Tlie week ending .Monday, August 8tii., was favorable for farming opera- tionsand many of our farmers tinlshed threshing. Apple shipping has be¬ gun, many cars of tine Maiden Blush having gone out. Many more are yet to lie picked. The apple crop will lie one of tlie largest and best ever raised. in some orchards a few of the trees show indications of bitter rot, but by picking off tiie infected fjult the dis¬ ease may "oe lieaded off. Among the sales of orchards this week was that of Hawkins, Smilh & .lones north of this city wliich was purchased by George Ileilz & Co., of Indianapolis, who al.so purchased the Ebner orchard two miles northwest of here. Both orchards are bearing heavy jrops this year.

I'ossibly In this case they intend tostretigtlien the Kaiser's Army by witlidrawiiig some of the Allies' forces.-Clay County Democrat. You are right. The members of the Kair A.'isoclatioii believe in pat¬ ronizing home people and in a broad sense believe in giving home people the hest of everything. Tills is the spirit which controlled the managemetit, in securing the great ¦'Kilties" Bandfor the Kair. No such band as this could be secured at home, nor from but few places away from home. The management be¬ lieved at the time, an(J now feel sure that in securing tliis band they would give to the patrons of the Kair the greatest musical treat ever heard In this part of the state. As a proof that they were right, other bands and noted musicians from many parts of Southern Illinois are sending congratulations to tlie management, and stating that they will attend the fair to hear the con¬ certs to he given twice dally by this noted l)and. Now, brother Woomer ijuit your knocking and Ije a booster for the Fair and everything else that Is of help to Clay County, be It at Flora or any place else.

Clay Plaster, Clay Paint and Clay Stone
Clay Plaster is a wall finish, called American Clay, that replaces paint. It is made right here in New Mexico, is non-toxic and has zero VOC's. It can be applied on drywall and on previously painted or plastered walls. There are 4 finishes of varying texture and appearance and hundreds of colors available. American Clay creates a wall that functions and looks like no other. While you're admiring the calming beauty of your walls, they are absorbing odors and controlling moisture. In addition, this wall treatment lasts a lifetime and is easy to repair. You can apply American Clay Plaster yourself or we'll send Kent, with Solamente Clay Walls, over for a complimentary application quote. Solamente Clay Walls has their showroom in our entry so you can see and feel American Clay on large walls.
Clay Paint by Green Planet Paints features ingredients like plant resins, clay and other natural minerals - material that has been in paints for thousands of years. While the color palette is limited, they are all naturally occurring mineral and clay based colors that appeal to all. Green Planet Paints contain zero VOC's and are non-toxic – this paint actually improves air quality. Available in eggshell and flat – light and mid-range colors.
Clay Stone is a fun one – both a super durable finish by Solamente Clay and the name of Kent's two man band. Solamente Clay Walls – American clay applicators – achieve their signature Clay Stone finish with a special lime wash. Great for bancos and high traffic walls.
On the other hand, Clay Stone the band- yes, named after the finish by Kent Gurley, Solamente Clay owner, is a super fun duo. I have enjoyed a couple very festive evenings with entertainment provided by these guys. So whether you need entertainment or an amazing finish – call Kent at 205-6010!

Forretress @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) 252 Def/ 252 HP/ 4 SDef - Volt Switch - Stealth Rock - Rapid Spin - Gyro Ball
Hazard Lead/Spinner. Lays down Rocks, then Volts outta there to come in later as a spinner if needed. also carries GB to allow it to have some offensive utility in times of dire need.
Alakazam @ Life Orb Trait: Magic Guard Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) 252 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 4 HP - Psyshock - Focus Blast - Thunderbolt - Grass Knot
pretty much a standard Life Orb abuser, Magic Guard, blah blah, you know how this works. Grass Knot was added mainly as an unconventional way to deal with Quagsire Swampert and Carracosta should they make an unexpected appearance.
Terrekion @ Choice Scarf Trait: Justified Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) 252 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 4 HP - Close Combat - Stone Edge - X-Scissor - Earthquake
F's schtuff up. Dual stabs, and great neutral coverage combined with massive power and Scarf Speed.... im done now.
Gliscor @ Toxic Orb Trait: Poison Heal Careful Nature (+SDef, -SAtk) 252 Def/ 180 SDef/ 36 HP - Earthquake - Ice Fang - Facade - Protect
Sableye @ Leftovers Trait: Prankster Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk) 252 SDef/ 180 HP/ 36 Def - Shadow Sneak - Substitute - Toxic - Taunt
i can honestly say this is one of the most annoying Sableye sets i have ever seen used in my life. Substitute makes the little b*stard hard to hit and Toxic + Taunt allows Stalling out even mixed walls with Healing like Umbreon. Prankster Taunt is so annoying against things that need to set up like Skarmory, Forretress, and Cloyster. Shadow Sneak may not have a ton of power, but adds to the theme of Prankster by always going before the opponent and screwing up the ir plans as much as possible.
Slowbro @ Leftovers Trait: Regenerator Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk) 252 SDef/ 252 Def/ 4 SAtk - Scald - Flamethrower - Calm Mind - Recover
Special Tank. B3N swears that this thing is like Chuck Norris on Steroids if he only had the intelligence of a lobatomized cow: pwns like a baws while staring stupidly off at a telephone pole, convinced that it sees the answer to where its Lunchables went. so im gonna try it out, but this is a different set that some I've seen. B3N, if you have any feedback on this poor, addle-brained creature, please feel free to share :D
Scizor @ Choice Band Trait: Technician Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) 22 Atk/ 252 Spd/ 4 SDef - Bullet Punch - U-Turn - Pursuit - Superpower
youve seen this before. you've either used it, or had your team smashed into bits by it. either way, you know what it is, and what it does. so you know that to be afraid is only natural. for what man doesn't feel sheer terror upon looking his demise in the face??
that's it. read, rate, randomly clean your fingernails arbitrarily, whatever makes you happy. just make sure you do the first 2 things on that list first.
Alright, I have used all of these Pokemon before (not always these sets, but I have still used them), and I see a few things that could be fixed, as well as what looks to be some typos.
Forretress - Alrighty, Forry is a great lead, but you have such beastliness there, why not go to town? Boot Gyro Ball and get some Spikes in there, as he has the defenses to set them up, and it is not hard to do either. Besides, you aren't out much Gyro Ball doesn't hit very hard with Forry, regardless of how slow he is. Other than that your looking good.
Alakazam - I just love Alakazam, he is one of my favorite sand sweepers. First thing I see is that you have 252 Atk EVs on him, and I'm geussing that is a typo, make it Spatk. As well as a mono-attacking set works, I have been going with a Calm Mind set recently and it allows him to punish quite a few enemies. Keep Focus Blast, but ditch Psyshock for Psychic, as Psyshock just doesn't have that oomph that Psychic gives. Replace Thunderbolt for Calm Mind, as a Neutral Psychic at +1 is gonna wreck just about anything. If you want a grass move I suggest you go with Energy Ball, but I use Shadow Ball to hit Ghosts and other Psychic types. Trust me, once you have a Calm Mind or two up, you will be nearly unsttopable, just watch out for revenge killers. Another perk to running Calm Mind over a mono-attacking set is that you can't get nailed by Suckerpunch if you predict correctly.
Terrakion - Looks dandy, only thing I have to add is that you might wanna put Rock Slide > Stone Edge due to increased accuracy and the flinch chance, since you will be most likely moving first, you might as well try and get a flinch. But if you want the extra power provided by Stone Edge then go with that instead.
Sableye or Gliscor? I have never had much success with Gliscor, but Sableye is just amazing. Definitely go with Sableye. Now geuss what, your Sableye set needs some tweaking. (See below)
Sableye - Ok, you have one of the most annoying Pokemon ever, and you haven't even used his greatest selling point. The set I have used with devastatingly trolly effects is the one you should use to:
Sableye @ Leftovers Trait: Prankster EVs: 252 HP, 120 Def, 134 Spdef Careful Nature - Taunt - Will-O-Wisp - Recover - Night Shade/Shadow Sneak
You already know the deadliness of priority Taunt, but priority w.o.w. is just insane, as you can cripple an opponent's deadliest physical sweeper before they can even attack you, which also helps with Sableye's defense. Priority Recover allows Sableye to heal his trolly self right up before the foe can hit him, and your choice of Night Shade (Hits harder) or Shadow Sneak (Yet more priority) will help chip down the opponent's HP even more. This set is amazing, so definitely give ot a go.
Slowmonster - I have never tried any other Slowbro than my faithful physical wall, but I have heard a Calm Mind set works pretty well, thing is, Slowbro is not a special wall, he is a physical wall. Last I checked, Slowbro can't learn Recover, so you will want to replace that with Slack Off. Then, change your 252 Spdef EVs into HP EVs. Calm Mind will raise your Special Defense, so put some HP in there and you should be considerably more bulky. Only other thing I have to add is that Slowbro doesn't need to be any smarter than it is, it possesses unstoppabability.
Scizor - Never used CB Scizor before but I have seen others use it to demolish unsuspecting foe's. Don't change nothin.

Number of manufacturing jobs that Houston has created since 2009. That was among the factors that led Forbes magazine to pick Houston as the top US metro area for manufacturing resurgence in the US, factoring in recent, mid-term, and long-term increases in manufacturing employment. The rest of the list in order is: Louisville, Seattle, Oklahoma City, Nashville, the Virginia Beach and Norkfolk area, surprisingly the Detroit metro area (no doubt driven by a revival of the US auto industry), Fort Worth, and Salt Lake City. Experts of course say each new manufacturing job creates 6 or 7 other jobs at suppliers and service providers to support the manufacturing operations and employees.

How can flexibility and process economics be combined in one LC system?
KNAUER introduces the flexible Contichrom® lab process equipment
Mining and enrichment in discovery, isolating product-related impurities, or developing efficient purification processes can be very laborious. The new lab-scale gradient-capable purification solution Contichrom® lab offers great flexibility for all process choices (batch LC, SMB, MCSGP, multi-column) using a single equipment and control software.
Fast development of an optimized purification process is being achieved by omitting large screening efforts and instead starting from a simple non-optimized batch process that is switched to a superior MCSGP process by the user-friendly Contichrom® lab control software.
The MCSGP process principle uses two columns instead of one and makes use of impure fractions, typically discarded in batch chromatography. These impure side fractions containing product are recycled internally by continuous column switching, maximizing extraction of the product.
• Both yield and purity can be improved by 50%.
• Throughput can be increased by a factor of ten and solvent consumption be reduced by 70%.
All standard resins and column formats (RP, HIC, IEX, SEC) can be applied, ranging from low to high pressure, offering full solvent compatibility.
Contichrom® lab has been designed to be very user-friendly, employing software that helps the user to navigate through the process setup, execution and reporting while being 21 CFR part 11 compliant.
Is your LC purification system equally adaptable?

In court records, lawyers representing the famous cyclist write, "USADA is above the law, above court review, free from supervision from any person or organization and even above its own rules."
USADA attorneys admitted to Judge Sparks they have no blood sample proof that Armstrong used drugs during international-sanctioned races.
However, they did say up to 10 people are willing to testify the famous athlete did use drugs to better his race performance.
Judge Sparks countered their arguments saying, "I could not find any specifics reading the charges, not one name, not one date, not one specific allegation, except conspiracy. You make no factual examples."
The anti-doping agency is hoping to examine Armstrong's performances, dating back to 1998. USADA accuses the Austin resident of using blood boosters as well as steroids during his Tour de France wins between 1999 to 2005.
Armstrong has been drug tested as many as 600 times, never testing positive for any illegal substances.
Austin Attorney Skip Davis represents athletes in doping cases. He says the judge has brought up legitimate legal concerns regarding USADA's case against the cycling champion.
"So that's another concern that the judge has, certainly Lance Armstrong has--they're relying on people who have an ax to grind, or of a great benefit that will be derived from helpful testimony that they will not be prosecuted that hard," Davis said.
Each side now has seven days to finalize their case before the judge will issue a ruling.
In found guilty by the anti-doping agency, Armstrong could be banned from cycling for life.

Ferndale senior citizen charged with brandishing a weapon for pulling a gun on another man
FERNDALE — A senior citizen is charged with brandishing a weapon after police said he came out of his motel room wearing only a towel and pulled a 44 Magnum on another man Monday.
The suspect, Arnold Parker, 69, has been living at the motel for several months, police said.
Parker was arraigned Tuesday in Ferndale 43rd District Court and released on personal bond.
The incident happened at the Motorama Motel, 100 W. Eight Mile Road about 4:30 a.m.
"The suspect later told us he came out of his room to confront the victim because he thought the victim had been stalking him for several days," said Ferndale Police Lt. William Wilson. "The suspect didn't realize the victim was also staying at the motel."
The other man, 47, told police he had just parked his car and was walking to his room when the suspect came out wearing a towel and pulled the gun on him.
"The suspect pointed the gun at the victim and told him to get away from the area and to leave his car alone," Wilson said.
Police said the younger man walked away and called police.
Police arrived and called the suspect on the phone to get him to come out of his room.
"He seemed surprised to learn the victim was a resident at the motel," Wilson said. Continued...
The suspect's gun is legally registered to him and he faces no charges for carrying it.
Parker has no criminal history, police said.
The charge against Park is a misdemeanor and he is scheduled for a pretrial hearing in Ferndale District Court at 11 a.m. Feb. 14.
