Swimmers awaiting the reopening of the Powell Aquatic Center must wait a while longer.

Wyoming right to honor veterans with annual 'Welcome Home Day'
It seems unfathomable, but for thousands of American veterans, it was an unfortunate reality. Veterans returning home from battle zones — where they risked their lives, spent months apart from loved ones and faithfully served while their plans and dreams were interrupted by war — only to be scorned or completely ignored upon arriving home.

Surgeon, students serve in Saboba
Performing surgery in blistering heat at a rural African hospital, Dr. Nick Morris and Bryn Parker knew they weren't in Wyoming with its comforts or modern medicine.
That fact was made especially clear when a dead lizard fell from an air conditioner and plopped into the operating room.
Just another day in Saboba, Ghana.

Beating them, Brooke walks again after snowboarding accident
A month after her sweet 16th birthday, Brooke Nisley's life changed in an instant when she slammed into a tree while snowboarding.
In her six years snowboarding, it was only the second time Brooke wore a helmet on the slopes. She had received the pale-blue helmet for a Christmas present just weeks earlier — and it saved her life.

The Wyoming Legislature adjourned late last week, finishing a general session marked largely by education reform. Over the past couple of months, statewide media coverage zeroed in on education measures — from the failed teacher tenure bill to the state's investment in public schools — and socially conservative bills — namely those regarding same-sex marriage, abortion and concealed weapons.

After 40 years of nurturing local economic development through land sales, Target Powell Valley is coming to an end.

The good and the bad of media coverage of Palestine
"Progressive" newspaper gives a platform to Israel's racists.
Brother of two women murdered by Craig Hicks says he has no doubt that it was an anti-Muslim hate crime.
Zionists cheer Kayla Mueller's death while mainstream media whitewash and erase her Palestine solidarity work.
The Times has to keep telling itself and its readers that Palestinians are the "threat" and Israel is just playing defense.
Broadcaster pats itself on the back as it routinely ignores Israeli breaches of Gaza ceasefire.
Israeli story quickly falls apart. But why haven't media corrected their initial accounts?
For the second time in recent months, a post espousing extraordinarily racist views, this time comparing Black people and Palestinians, has been removed from the Israeli publication.
Times should have defended accuracy of reporter's article. Instead, it pandered to a notorious anti-Palestinian hate group.

what will they think of next?
Egg Cuber 3-5/8" tall, 1-1/2" square interior, Clear plastic. Chill cuber, place a warm hard boiled egg in it, and screw down top until egg becomes a cube. $3.49
You're a little behind the times. We discussed these, at length, several months ago.
There's also a thread at Harvest dealing with gadgets that touches on these as well, if you care to go look for it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Cubical Eggs
here i thought i was living right in the present time!
i hang out for the most part in the garden forums and just recently starting perusing these forums. now i see that i missed a discussion that took place that long ago. i'll have to read the at length discussions on something that i just discovered this morning when i was searching a kitchen supply store seb site.
thanks for the link.
I enjoyed seeing it also. I saw the previous thread but couldn't picture the actual gadget. Wow, everybody needs one of those--NOT.
Earthlydelights, as another gardener moving over to this forum for the bleak winter months, glad to see you. I needed a hobby to fill the time I usually spend outside in the garden. Decided to brush up on my cooking.
nina, it is available at a kitchen supply store that is located in the italian market section of philadelphia. it's called fantes and they do have a web site. i too had never heard of it or just couldn't believe it when i came across it.
as directed, i went and read the previous thread expecting a major discussion but it was pretty much a discusssion between the same few people and comical at some times.
bean, i was bored on night, nothing much happening in the garden forums and stumbled around here. it's so nice to see this side and get some get feedback, ideas and recipes. i'll soon start preparing to winter sow,so at least i'll be able to keep my hands in dirt.
be well,
This isn't a gadget but a cool thing to do to eggs if you like to serve them to guests.
Hard boil the eggs. Then roll them in your hand to crack the shells without removing any of the shell.
Then, soak/marinate them overnight (keep the shells on!) in a mix of soy sauce and strong brewed tea.
When you peel them they will look like marble eggs! Your guest will stare at them and poke them and ask "Are these to eat??" Everyone will get a giggle out of them.
Those egg cube things make the rounds every few years. I know I bought one for my sister over 25 years ago.
Another vote, though, for shopping at Fante's--great place to visit if you're at the Italian Market, and their website is fabulous--informative, and they have everything a cook could dream of ever needing or wanting. Reputable, old company that's safe and courteous to deal with.

This was our second visit to Sundara. We enjoyed a plush suite.The screen porch area was very comfortable and has a great view. Take time to walk the grounds, they are peaceful.
The spa services that I tried were the best. The two women were talented and I felt at ease for the entire process. It is a wonderful spa to enjoy.
We felt that the breakfast service had been improved from our first visit. The room service is good and adds to the get away from it all experience. Dinner by the fireplace was nice.
The pool area is one of the great places to unwind. The problem is that anyone can book a spa service and enjoy the pool all day. These guests yelled out at the pool and kept track of all the other hotels they were staying at. They used cellphones. It made a beautiful afternoon, loud and noisy. The guests staying at the inn were quiet, the others did not stay quiet for a minute. This needs to be improved. At night the sound from the open fire area will carry up to the suite. It is not the inn's fault that a group of women used foul language.
An escape with some needless noise.
- Official Description (provided by the hotel):
- Our 26-acre parcel is lush with sky-high pine trees and natural Wisconsin stone outcroppings. Respect for the natural resources is at the soul of Sundara's green practices. Our heated outdoor infinity edge pool, sculpted fireplace, waterfalls and curving deck connect seamlessly with the tranquil environment. The main building is representative of some of the most striking Organic-style architecture in the Midwest. Inside, the principles of Feng Shui contribute to a soothing environment. Our spa treatments incorporate the finest organic products from around the world. The Sundara Spa signature collection even draws ingredients indigenous to the area for an authentic experience. Our spa cuisine features the fruits of labor of fresh, local, seasonal ingredients. Sundara is drawn from the Sanskrit word for "beautiful." We interpret that as beauty flowing from wellness. Our carefully selected and highly trained service providers are healers at heart and passionate about their work, putting customer satisfaction at the center of all they do. Whether you choose to stay in one of our 26 elegant suites, or perhaps just linger for the day, we hope it will be a transforming experience. ... more less

It was a pleasure to have Cameron stay.
Cameron was an unbelievable guest. Not only did he and his colleagues keep the place very clean and treat it with great respect, but he and his colleagues were amazing and generous people. Cameron personally went out of his way to get me into an event he was hosting, His colleague left me a very valuable gift... Throughout, they were very communicative as well, making the entire experience a breeze...
If you are lucky enough to host Cameron in the future, I suggest you do so, and I hope a future host will treat him as well as he (and they) treated me. I cannot recommend Cameron enough.
Thank you Cameron and all the best of luck!

All her life, Pushpavathy Jayaraman had been living in a thatched house. Be it at Vengaivaasal, where she was born, or for a brief while at Ayanavaram in the city after her marriage, she had been living only in thatched houses.
In a couple of weeks, she would be moving into a 'pucca' house, thanks to a scheme of the Rural Development and Panchayati Raj Department of the State government. It is constructing the house, absolutely free of cost for Pushapavathy and 55 others in St.Thomas Mount Panchayat Union in the southern suburbs of Chennai.
The 56 families would be beneficiaries in the first phase of the Solar Powered Green Houses Project 'Pasumai Veedugal Thittam' launched last year. Unlettered, Pushpavathy could not recall her age and suggested that she might be 65. "Like my parents, I herded cattle in Vengaivaasal. After marriage, I shifted to Ayanavaram, where too like in Vengaivaasal, I lived in a hut. I returned to my mother's house in Vengaivaasal with my four daughters after my husband died, within 10 years after my marriage," Ms. Pushpavathy recalled.
Under the scheme, houses on a piece of land measuring 300 square feet are constructed for people living below the poverty line. A sum of Rs.1.8 lakh was sanctioned, including Rs.30,000 for provision of five Compact Fluorescent Lamps powered by solar panels. Tamil Nadu Energy Development Agency was the implementing agency for the solar powered lighting component, officials at the Panchayat Union (St. Thomas Mount Block) told The Hindu.
The houses would have a living room, a kitchen, a bedroom, toilet and a verandah and each of them would have a lamp. The house would also be complete with a rainwater harvesting system. Further, the construction materials used were pre-fabricated panels that would be strong enough to withstand natural disasters. Officials also added that if the beneficiaries wished to instal additional equipment they were free to do so and could also get power supply connections.
Following the merger of 10 village panchayats with the Chennai Corporation, there were only 15 village panchayats in St. Thomas Mount Block. A total of 56 houses would be constructed during the current financial year in the 15 village panchayats. Of 56 beneficiaries, 25 belonged to Scheduled Caste and 2 to Scheduled Tribe.
One important criterion for eligibility for this project is that the beneficiary should have a 'patta' (land ownership document) in his or her name. So far, they had not rejected any applications from the beneficiaries for want of pattas, but expected problems to crop when they would expand the project in the years to come. As now, a couple of houses are construction in Vengaivaasal Village Panchayat and work on the rest of the locations would commence soon, officials added.

Wedding Trivia:HONEYMOONAfter "kidnapping" his bride, the groom would take her and go into hiding. By the time the bride's family tracked them down them, the bride would probably already be pregnant! A "bride price" would then be negotiated. An earlier source is the early Jewish custom of the bride and groom spending a week together alone immediately after the marriage feast. The earliest reference to this practice is Jacob's marriages to Leah and Rachel.

Comments about this product:
I confess I was not a fan of the Sarah Silverman show; sexy baby voices in women annoy me, so I didn't expect this powerful performance. It's been months since I saw it and only came here to order DVDs for my siblings for Christmas. So I wish I could be more specific with scenes. What Sarah left me with was an awe for the human spirit and our raw beauty. This intimate setting in a small theatre, with her slipping out the back door to talk to the camera on the street, gave me the sense that she and I were chatting over coffee and laughing at ourselves, and at how wacked humans can be. I recommend you watch if your heart needs a reboot or if you're isolated by cynicism.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Dead Celebrities On Social Media
Elvis is in the building! Or at least on your smartphone. Despite being laid to rest nearly 35 years ago, the King of Rock n' Roll still posts on Facebook, and tweets several times a day…here's a sample: "love me tender, love me sweet, never let me go… hashtag Valentine's Day deals at Shop Elvis!" The BBC's Matt Danzico recently looked into the social media afterlives of departed celebrities – he lets us in on how they do it.

Get Your Hillary Clinton Action Figure Now!
You know you're going to need a Hillary Clinton Action Figure to get through the 2016 campaign. See this 30-second spot for full details! »
Of Bottled Water and Bobbled Heads
The Wall Street Journal's "Notable & Quotable" section this morning flags one of Don Boudreaux's typically insightful posts from his CafeHayek blog (very much worth reading for basic booster shots of economic literacy) about the emergence of bottled water a couple decades ago: I remember back in the late 1970s or early 1980s when I first noticed that still water began to be offered for sale in single-sized bottles. I »
Conversations on the Environment
Last month I trekked up to Syracuse, New York, where global warming had brought temperatures around minus 10 F for my visit (that's why I'm wearing a sweater in the thumbnail photo), for a conference on environmentalism broadly considered that was sponsored by SUNY's School of Environmental Science and Forestry. One of the things I did there was tape a broadcast of their "Conversations" series with Prof. Scott Turner, a »
The Week in Pictures: E-Mail Edition
So, this week we figured out who will be the Democratic Party ticket in 2016: Hillary Clinton and Lois Lerner. They're the perfect running mates, given their email proclivities. But Hillary may be jealous of Lerner, since Lerner appears to have even better email stonewalling skills than the Clintons. Prediction: if they ever get their hands on Hillary's personal email server, they'll find some old Rose Law Firm records and »
The Climate Beclowning Continues
Far be it from me to prevent a mediocre leftist Democratic congressman from beclowning himself like Rep. Grijalva, but today the whole story jumped more sharks than Sharknado I & II combined when the Malibu Times, a local sheet devoted chiefly to Kardashian sightings and Bruce Jenner accident reports, ran the headline, "Pepperdine Professor Investigated by Congressman." Do you think the Malibu Times follows these Capitol Hill stories that closely? »
A Simple Question About Iran
We keep hearing from Democratic critics of Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech that if we don't reach an agreement with Iran, then the path will be clear for Iran to have a bomb soon. Explicit is the idea that even a bad agreement is better than no agreement. Hold on a minute. Isn't there something missing here? I thought "all options were on the table." Obama has said this repeatedly. Now »

Old Americans for Freedom
The Wall Street Journal's "Notable and Quotable" section this morning reminds us that M. Stanton Evans was the author of the "Sharon Statement," the founding manifesto of Young Americans for Freedom. It is called the "Sharon Statement" because it was adopted at a meeting at William F. Buckley's home in Sharon, Connecticut. I was not even two years old at the time of its writing, so I took no notice »
Energy Sense from an Unlikely Source
In preparing for this week's session of my graduate course on energy policy, I happened to stumble across a very sound discussion of why the energy romanticism of the Climate Haters (I think I'm going to retire "climatistas" and go with the more accurate Climate Haters instead, because settled science!) makes no sense. It is in a series called "Getting to Zero" (as in zero carbon emissions), written by a »
Why Hillary Won't Make It
Time out briefly from the Obama Debacle to contemplate the Hillary 2016 debacle-in-waiting.

Ours is a »
M. Stanton Evans, RIP
Sad news this morning of the passing of M. Stanton Evans at the age of 80. He was, in addition to his long list of books and distinguished career in journalism, the author of the Sharon Statement, one of the founding documents of modern conservatism produced at the founding of Young Americans for Freedom in 1960. Stan was my first mentor in professional life. I came to Washington DC right »
Climate Haters Gotta Hate
I've had on my spindle for a month now this article by the WaPo's Chris Mooney (author of the egregious Republican War on Science) about how the climate change debate is . . . polarized!

On the surface the story »
A "Political Football"? He Would Know

When All You Have Is a Hammer. . .
You almost have to have some sympathy for Rep. Raul Grijalva, given that he's a slave to the crudely Marxist reductionist view that economic interest determines everything. It has been the fundamental driving principle of the left for a very long time. When all you have is a hammer. . . By coincidence, as Grijalva was rolling out his Climate Blacklist this week, I happened to be rereading portions of »

Milk For The Cat Poem by Harold Monro
When the tea is brought at five o'clock,
And all the neat curtains are drawn with care,
The little black cat with bright green eyes
Is suddenly purring there.
At first she pretends, having nothing to do,
She has come in merely to blink by the grate,
But, though tea may be late or the milk may be
She is never late.
And presently her agate eyes
Take a soft large milky haze,
And her independent casual glance
Becomes a stiff, hard gaze.
Then she stamps her claws or lifts her ears,
Or twists her tail and begins to stir,
Till suddenly all her lithe body becomes
One breathing, trembling purr.
The children eat and wriggle and laugh;
The two old ladies stroke their silk:
But the cat is grown small and thin with desire,
Transformed to a creeping lust for milk.
The white saucer like some full moon descends
At last from the clouds of the table above;
She sighs and dreams and thrills and glows,
Transfigured with love.
She nestles over the shining rim,
Buries her chin in the creamy sea;
Her tail hangs loose; each drowsy paw
Is doubled under each bending knee.
A long, dim ecstasy holds her life;
Her world is an infinite shapeless white,
Till her tongue has curled the last holy drop,
Then she sinks back into the night,
Draws and dips her body to heap
Her sleepy nerves in the great arm-chair,
Lies defeated and buried deep
Three or four hours unconscious there.

Originally written on Fox Soccer | Last updated 11/4/14
Kenny Cooper headed in two goals, scoring for the first time since May 23, to lead the New York Red Bulls to a 2-0 victory over the Philadelphia Union on Saturday. The Red Bulls (11-5-5) remain undefeated at home this season, improving to 7-0-3. New York is the lone MLS team without a loss at home. Cooper, who did not start Wednesday's game against Chicago, scored off a pass from rookie Connor Lade in the 43rd minute, then added another header off a fine feed from Thierry Henry in the 58th minute. Cooper has 13 goals this season, four behind San Jose's Chris Wondolowski for the MLS lead. Lade had two assists. It was the second straight shutout victory for Bill Gaudette, who made two saves in place of injured starter Ryan Meara. Gaudette has started three straight games with two wins and a tie. Philadelphia's best scoring chance in the first half came when Josue Martinez got behind Red Bulls rookie defender Jonathan Borrajo in the 40th minute. Martinez burst past Borrajo, who wa...

In this study, Acrylic acid (AA)/2-acrylamido-2-methlypropane sulfonic acid (AMPS) hydrogels were prepared by free radical polymerization in aqueous solutions of AA, AMPS, and N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (NMBA) as crosslinker. Potassium persulfate (PPS)/potassium bisulfide (PBS) were used as initiator and accelerator pair. The water absorption capacities and dye adsorption properties of the hydrogels were investigated. Adsorption properties of the hydrogels were evaluated by depending on different adsorption conditions such as different initial dye concentration and contact time. The concentrations of the dyes were determined using UV/Vis Spectrophotometer at wavelength 530 nm for safranine T (ST) and 622 nm for brilliant cresyl blue (BCB). Adsorption kinetic studies showed that pseudo-first order kinetic model is suitable to explain the adsorption kinetic data of the hydrogels. Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were used to describe adsorption data. The result revealed that the adsorption of basic dyes onto hydrogels fit very well both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2009

[IMAGE]TriMet-Portland-Milwaukie-light-rail-bridge-2.jpg[/IMAGE]Last week, after nearly a decade of planning and community outreach, TriMet and project partners celebrated the start of construction on the Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail Bridge. The bridge is the first to be built over the Willamette River in more than 40 years. It is also the first of its kind, with light rail, buses, a future Portland Streetcar and wide bike and pedestrian paths — and no private vehicles.The Portland-Milwaukie Light Rail Project (PMLR) is the agency's sixth MAX construction project and will expand the rail system to 60 miles."The bridge and the overall project will link east and west, improve and expand transit, and most importantly, create up to 14,000 jobs when we most need them," said TriMet GM Neil McFarlane.The PMLR project is the second MAX extension into Clackamas County after the MAX Green Line opened in 2009.The light rail bridge will be the first cable-stayed bridge for the region, extending 1,720 feet (.326 miles) over the Willamette River. It is the first of its kind, carrying light rail, buses, bikes, pedestrians and a future Portland Streetcar extension, but no private vehicles. The 7.3-mile project is the region's sixth MAX construction project to be built and extends from the terminus of the MAX Green and Yellow lines at Portland State University to South Waterfront, SE Portland, Milwaukie and Park Avenue in Clackamas County.The project includes 10 stations. It will create up to 14,000 direct and indirect jobs and generate up to $573 million in personal earnings. Federal funds will pay for half of the $1.49 billion project; state and local partners are funding the balance. TriMet's share is less than 5 percent of the project budget and will not be needed until FY2013. The line is set to open in September 2015.The overall project is still in the Final Design phase. The Federal Transit Administration has approved early construction work on the bridge, as construction in the Willamette River is limited due to migrating fish. The "fish window" allows in-river work from July 1 through October 31 each year.Project partners include Clackamas County, Oregon Metro, City of Milwaukie, Multnomah County, City of Oregon City, Oregon Department of Transportation, City of Portland, Portland Development Commission and TriMet.
The CTfastrak transit system provides direct service to and from Waterbury, Cheshire, Southington, Bristol, Plainville, New Britain, Newington, West Hartford, Hartford, East Hartford and Manchester with routes that take advantage of the bus-only CTfastrak roadway.
ABQ RIDE is looking to model its plan after the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority's HealthLine, which is sponsored through a hospital partnership. Construction on the so-called ART system could begin in May 2016 with an in-service date of September 2017.
The service, which costs $6 a ride, asks riders to download the Leap app, creating an account, uploading a photo and adding a credit card that enables them to pay via a QR code.
Agencies ordering the company's products, which are now in at least half of all new U.S. and Canadian transit buses, include L.A. Metro, Chicago Transit Authority and New York City Transit.
The contract includes a firm order for 35 XN40 and 20 XN60 Xcelsior buses, with an option for another 150 XN40 and 100 XN60 over the next five years. All buses are to be powered by CNG.

I got these on sale and with coupons at CVS and they are really great! They don't dry out my lips and it leaves a nice tint if you just want a natural lip look. The smell is good and these tinted lip balms are not minty, which I like because I feel like many lip balms are minty and its irritating to me. I got Petal Glow and Healthy Blush. I hope to collect all the shades, Yeah, these lip balms are pricier than others but if neutrogena products are on sale, then its worth buying these lip balms.

I had just bought the Petal Glow of Neutragena Revitalizing Lip Balm. The packaging was just as any make up product. The lip balm was creamy and too shimmery. Lots of product comes out when you apply it. I doubt it'd take little time for it to dry. I did 3 layers on each lip and the product was almost dried in about 30 minutes. I will be cheerleading soon for two hours outside. I wouldn't be very confident due to it's shimmer. Honestly, I would've gotten Sun Bum (Heard that it was good) but it wasn't there. This lip balm is pretty good beside the creamy texture and shimmer.

This is my absolute favorite lip balm! I got the tinted formula and the color is phenomenal on everyone. My lips honestly looked so much better after wearing it, proving that's truly a lip balm instead of the sticky products other brands sell. At $9, the price is a little steep but I repurchased anyway because it's truly worth it.

I LOVE IT!!!! I was turned off by the price at first but eventually bought it in "Sunny Berry". It was worth every penny!!! Then I stored up enough coupons to buy another and picked up "Healthy Blush". I'm not as obsessed about the color, but it is perfect for days I want a natural color. :) These lip balms are extremely moisturizing and are the perfect alternative for lipstick when your lips are too chapped for an even application.

I had this in the shade petal glow. The color was a pretty pink and did not make my lips feel dry. I just did not find myself reaching for this at all. it did not moisturize my lips very much. I much prefer the maybelline baby lips to this.

OMG! I have picked these up a dozen times but hated to spend that much on a lip balm. I was worried color would be too sheer. It is FABULOUS!!! Nice pigmentation. VERY moisturizing without being to thick/waxy. Has a mild fruity smell that is great - I am VERY picky with smells. I would prefer it was frangrance free but it's fine. I got the Pure Plum - it is a little browner than I imagined but I REALLY like the color.
The oval is great for top lip - getting into cupid's bow. It's slightly awkward for the bottom lip but totally doable!
My previous HG tinted balm was Burt's Bees Red Dhalia. I think this Neutrogena has replaced it becuase Neutrogena has SPF (Burts none), less waxy/thick feel but just as moisturizing (if not more so), and Burt's has minty ingredients which are irritating and drying.
Will definitely repurchase!!! Can't wait to try more colors.

I have this lip balm in Soft Caramel and it´s really great! Moisturizes and makes my lips super smooth without getting chapped. It contains spf and has just the right amount of subtle color. I use it in my regular makeup routine as I feel lika a lipstick is a bit heavy for everyday. This looks very natural and gives the prettiest sheen to the lips. It´s a bit expensive for a lip balm but I can live with that. I´ve repurchased several times and will continue to do so.

I have this in Healthy Blush, which is a really nice neutral pink color. It smells nice and moisturizes very well, but the shape of the tube is ridiculous. It can also settle in cracks if your lips happen to be dry and you don't exfoliate them first. I really like the soft color payoff though, and it feels nice on moderately dry to dry lips.

Interesting that others like the smell. I find it unpleasant. It makes me reluctant to use this. It is moisturizing, but the shape of the tube is odd and I find it hard to apply using the entire stick. I end up applying it using half the stick, which is kind of strange. Would not repurchase due to smell and shape.

This month, we are delighted to make our return to the topic of vagueness, this time in conversation with Stewart Shapiro, Professor of Philosophy at The Ohio State University. Click here to listen to our discussion.
You may remember from our previous episode on vagueness that most of the adjectives, common nouns, verbs, and prepositions we use are vague. To illustrate the idea, think of the adjective blue. In the philosophical setting, to say that the adjective blue is vague is to say a couple of things. First, although some things clearly are blue (like bluejays) and some things clearly aren't (like lemons), some things are right at the border (like this). Should we call that last borderline case blue or not? It's not particularly clear.

This month we sit down with Julia Annas, Regents Professor of Philosophy at the University of Arizona, to talk about virtue ethics. Click here to listen to our conversation.
Today we're used to thinking of ethics as the study of how to act in certain situations. Given any particular hypothetical scenario, what would be the right thing for you to do? If your friend wants you to stay up late to help him study for an exam, but you yourself need to go to bed early in order to get a good night's sleep for the exam, what do you do? This is the sort of thing we usually have in mind when it comes to ethics: ethicists devise sophisticated theories that tell us the most general laws of good behavior.

This month, we sit down with Philip Pettit to discuss some of his work on whether corporations have rights. Click here to listen to our conversation.
Much of what goes on in today's world is the work of corporations, which command far more money and power than any individual person can. And that already puts us in challenging philosophical territory. Can corporations *do* things? Can a corporation be held responsible for what it does? Not too long ago, there were strong legal barriers to holding corporations responsible for their actions. But these days, most of us seem to think that a company should be held to account when it commits acts of negligence. (Recall the BP spill from 2010, where it was generally agreed that the company should indeed be held responsible for the disaster.)

To see Branden Fitelson's notion of coherence spelled out in full detail, you can read the following two papers:
Branden Fitelson and Kenny Easwaran, "Accuracy, Coherence, and Evidence."
Branden Fitelson, Rachel Briggs, Fabrizio Cariani, and Kenny Easwaran, "Individual Coherence and Group Coherence."
For an interesting extension of that framework to cover cases where a person suspends judgment, you can take a look at:

This month we are delighted to have Branden Fitelson back for his second appearance on the program. The topic was some recent work he has been doing with Rachel Briggs, Fabrizio Cariani, and Kenny Easwaran on paradoxes of consistency. Click here to listen to our conversation.
Imagine you're a scientist, and you publish a huge book presenting the results of your research over the past decade. You are exact in your methods, and to the best of your knowledge, everything you claim in the book is true. Nonetheless, you write the following in the preface: 'Any mistakes in this book are mine and mine alone.' Why think that it contains mistakes? Well, it almost certainly does; human beings are fallible, and every scientific book ever written contains some mistake or other. These things are difficult to write! But this raises an interesting paradox. On the one hand, if I were to list all the claims in the book, one by one, for each one, you would say that it was true. On the other, you readily acknowledge that there must be a mistake in there somewhere. It's impossible for both of these things to be true: either every claim in the book is true, or at least one of the claims in the book is false. So what gives? Are you contradicting yourself?

This month, we sit down with Patricia Blanchette to discuss the work of Gottlob Frege, one of the most influential philosophers of the 20th century. Click here to listen to our conversation.
We saw in our episode on the philosophy of mathematics how difficult it was to say what numbers are. What is the number three, and how do I come to know things about it? (Like that it's odd, that it's prime, that it's the lowest number that's both odd and prime, that it's a factor of 135, and so on for all the things a mathematician might teach you about it.) Frege thought we could make some headway on these questions if we could show that arithmetic was really just complicated logic. And one way of demonstrating that arithmetic is just complicated logic is by showing that you can translate any statement about arithmetic into a statement about logic without changing its meaning.
