Ever Wanted to Observe and ID Weird Deep Sea Creatures? Here's Your Chance
If you're like me, you've pondered from time to time the goings-on of life in the deep. What's happening down there this very moment? What do the creatures look like when they're just hanging out? But most of us will never be able to take a trip in a submersible. Now, though fuzzy and in [...]Keep reading »

A Hangout IN Air–Off a Cliff Face–for Science
When I last did a Google Science Fair Hangout On Air with Jason Osborne and Aaron Alford, founders of Paleo Quest, they were diving in a swamp looking for fossils.

Science and the Public Parlay: Come a Little Bit Closer
February 16th, 2013 | 3
BOSTON—Rarer than hen's teeth is a bill in Congress that has bipartisan support. But such legislation exists, and if passed would open up a semi-secret world. The law—the Fair Access to Science and Technology Research (FASTR) Act—would ensure that research articles based on taxpayer-supported projects are freely available online for the public to read. FASTR [...]Keep reading »

One Man's Poo is Another Man's PhD
Scientists collect crazy things. I'm not talking thimble-crazy or frog-themed-crazy. That kind of tchotchke barely ranks on the crazy scale.

And to supersize the irony, [...]Keep reading »

Retired at the end of the
Spring 2008 semester
Dr. Jerome Miller
Teaching in a small department is wonderful because it allows me to
teach an
array of courses that are reflective of my wide-ranging intellectual
interests. (It's depressing to realize I will die before being able to read
all the books on my lists!) My approach to philosophy is "existential" which
means that I try to emphasize the relevance of philosophical questioning to
our personal lives and ask students to rigorously examine the meaning of
their experiences. I'm especially interested in the issues that arise in the
philosophy of religion (such as the existence of the God and the nature of
spirituality) and in theory of knowledge ("What is truth and is it possible
for us to access it?"). In addition to my courses in these areas, I teach a
seminar course entirely devoted to discussion of Plato's Republic, and a
course in African American Philosophy that begins with Jimi Hendrix's Star
Spangled Banner and goes on to explore texts by Frederick Douglass, Martin
Luther King and Ralph Ellison. I write on a regular basis both for
professional journals and for a wider "non-academic" audience. I've
published two books: The Way of Suffering: A Geography of Crisis and
In the Throe of Wonder: Intimations of the Sacred in a Post-modern World.
I am currently working on a book about what it means to be historical, the
provisional title of which is In the Throe of the Future: History,
Culture and Normative Order.

Norman Schwarzkopf (1934-2012) WASHINGTON | Truth is, retired Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf didn't care much for his popular "Stormin' Norman" nickname. The seemingly no-nonsense Desert Storm commander's reputed temper with aides and subordinates supposedly earned him that rough-and-ready moniker. But others around the general, who died Thursday, December 27th in Tampa, Fla., at age 78 from complications from pneumonia, knew him as a friendly, talkative and even jovial figure who preferred the somewhat milder sobriquet given by his troops: "The Bear."That one perhaps suited him better later in his life, when he supported various national causes and children's charities while eschewing the spotlight and resisting efforts to draft him to run for political office.[ READ MORE: Retired Gen.

Any room she entered she just lit the room up, whether she was on stage or just going out to eat.""Rescue Me" has been covered by many top artists, including Linda Ronstadt, Cher, Melissa Manchester and Pat Benatar.

He was 79.Dawson, also known to TV fans as the Cockney prisoner-of-war Cpl. Peter Newkirk on "Hogan's Heroes," died Saturday night from complications related to esophageal cancer at Ronald Reagan Memorial Hospital, his son Gary said.The game show, which initially ran from 1976 to 1985, pitted families who tried to guess the most popular answers to poll questions such as "What do people give up when they go on a diet?"Dawson won a daytime Emmy Award in 1978 as best TV game show host. Tom Shales of The Washington Post called him "the fastest, brightest and most beguilingly caustic interlocutor since the late great Groucho bantered and parried on `You Bet Your Life.'" The show was so popular it was released as both daytime and syndicated evening versions.He was known for kissing each woman contestant, and at the time the show bowed out in 1985, executive producer Howard Felsher estimated that Dawson had kissed "somewhere in the vicinity of 20,000.""I kissed them for luck and love, that's all," Dawson said at the time. He reprised his game show character in a much darker mood in the 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger film "The Running Man," playing the host of a deadly TV show set in a totalitarian future, where convicts try to escape as their executioners stalk them. "Saturday Night Live" mocked him in the 1970s, with Bill Murray portraying him as leering and nasty, even slapping one contestant (John Belushi) for getting too fresh.The British-born actor already had gained fame as the fast-talking Newkirk in "Hogan's Heroes," the CBS comedy about prisoners in a Nazi POW camp who hoodwink their captors and run the place themselves.Despite its unlikely premise, the show made the ratings top 10 in its first season, 1965-66, and ran until 1971.Both "Hogan's Heroes" and "Family Feud" have had a second life in recent years, the former on DVD reissues and the latter on cable television's GSN, formerly known as the Game Show Network.On Dawson's last "Family Feud" in 1985, the studio audience honored him with a standing ovation, and he responded: "Please sit down. I have to do at least 30 minutes of fun and laughter and you make me want to cry.""I've had the most incredible luck in my career," he told viewers."I never dreamed I would have a job in which so many people could touch me and I could touch them," he said. That triggered an unexpected laugh.Producers brought out "The New Family Feud," starring comedian Ray Combs, in 1988. Six years later, Dawson replaced Combs at the helm, but that lasted only one season.According to the Internet Movie Database, Dawson was born Colin Lionel Emm in 1932 in Gosport, England. His first wife was actress Diana Dors, the blond bombshell who was Britain's answer to Marilyn Monroe.(Copyright 2012 by CBS San Francisco. All Rights Reserved.

After Ho Hei and Man Dik had been dating for quite some time, Ho Hei found out Tai Bo's feelings for her and she found it difficult to choose between the two brothers. She was confused over her feelings for them. Another person in Temple Street named Yiu Chi Wai had a son named Chun Kit. He was very proud and happy about his son. But Kit caused many problems for Temple Street's people behind his dad's back. Tai Bo and Man Dik had to join up together to stop Kit because he had also captured Ho Hei. They decided to work as a team to help Temple Street before it was too late… The questions lie in our heads.. Is Tai Bo actually Fung Ying's real son? Who will Ho Hei choose to be with? Can the two brothers save Temple Street before it is much too late?
