Social Responsibility and Filmmaking
The movie has an immediacy, a truth, an impact that comes out of the fact that it was shot while it was happening, by somebody who was actually living it.
-Roger Ebert
In 1994 when voters in California approved Proposition 187, the controversial bill that would deny public education and health care to undocumented immigrants, teacher Laura Angelica Simon made a film documenting how the issue divided her school. Armed with borrowed equipment and tapes donated by the Museum of Tolerance, Simon and friend Tracey Trench pooled their money, found a crew willing to work for free, and created the film Fear and Learning at Hoover Elementary (1997). This hour-long documentary was one of 34 films (out of 800 submissions) selected by this year's prestigious Sundance Film Festival, where it was the winner of the Freedom of Expression Award.
Located on a street dividing two rival gang territories, Hoover Elementary is in the Pico Union neighborhood, known as the Ellis Island of Los Angeles. According to Simon, 90 percent of the students at Hoover are economic and political refugees from Mexico, Guatemala, and El Salvador living in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Los Angeles. As a teacher at Hoover Elementary, Simon was able to access other teachers (both for and against the measure) and their young students-the overlooked victims of the debate and whose childhood has been sacrificed to this political agenda. The deep divide between racial groups at the school, and within the Latino community itself, could only have been discovered by a filmmaker who has lived within, and struggled deeply with, the heartbreaking realities of the new American immigrant experience in inner city schools.
In her film Simon presents both sides of the debate and has earned praise and criticism from people in both camps. Although she "passionately voted no" on Prop. 187, Simon has never seen her film as a political project. "I saw it as historic, about a place in L.A.... Some people get frustrated with me for not telling them what to think. This is not a black-and-white issue that can be resolved in a tidy way in an hour. Reality lives in the gray."
At six Simon legally immigrated from Mexico with her parents, experiencing alienation and discrimination as a Spanish-speaking child. By fourth grade she was fluent in English and in high school was valedictorian. She received a scholarship to Claremont McKenna College, where she majored in economics and philosophy, and was senior class president and commencement speaker.
In order to allow sufficient time to view the film as well as hear Laura Simon discuss her work, the buffet dinner will begin at 5:45 p.m. The film will start at 6:15 p.m., followed immediately by the lecture and discussion.
The Athenaeum is honored to host Laura Angelica Simon on her return visit to campus and hopes that many of you will take the opportunity to meet and learn about the work of this distinguished CMC alumna.
Writing Military History
The underlying social forces of any civilization, its values and traditions, are reflected in its military. Is the army comprised of status-seeking aristocrats or conscripted citizens? Is it exclusively male or sexually integrated? Does the country have a standing army or rely on militias? How do the leaders of armies motivate their soldiers to plunge into extremely deadly situations? In his responses to these and other questions, John Keegan's scholarship demonstrates that military history is much more than tales of battles and troop movements.
Born in London in 1934, Keegan grew up in Britain during the thick of World War II. Despite the fact that he has never been in combat, war has become a central focus of his scholarly work. Time magazine has hailed him as "One of the Century's most distinguished military historians." From 1980 to 1986 he was Senior Lecturer in Military History at the Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst. Since 1986, Keegan has been Defense Editor of The Daily Telegraph, a Lees-Knowles Lecturer in Military History at Cambridge, and this fall he is the Delmas Distinguished Professor of History at Vassar. He has recently been named Reith Lecturer for the BBC, an annual appointment for eminent intellectuals. Professor Keegan has published twenty books, which include The Face of Battle (1976), Six Armies is Normandy (1982), The Mask of Command (1987), The Price of Admiralty (1988), The Second World War (1989), and The History of Warfare (1993).
With support from the Gould Center and in cooperation with CMC's chapter of Phi Beta Kappa, the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum is pleased to announce the inauguration of the annual lecture series on Questions of Civilization. This specially designed series augments the newly established humanities course and will consist of three lectures in the fall semester and an additional three lectures in the spring. Professor John Keegan's lecture is the first in this distinguished series.
The Construction of Social Reality
John Searle, one of the best known philosophers in the world, is internationally recognized as a leading figure in the philosophy of mind and language. Though his early fame came out of the development of his speech-act theory of language, he has since branched out to many and varied disciplines.
The wide range of Searle's scholarship has spanned the fields of psychology, linguistics, philosophy, and literary theory. Searle has reinvigorated the mind-body discussion by merging traditional philosophical questions with the newer findings of neuroscience. His Chinese Room argument has been one of the most hotly debated examples in cognitive science and artificial intelligence discussions.
John Searle is the Mills Professor of the Philosophy of Mind and Language at the University of California, Berkeley, where he has taught since 1959. His many honors and awards include a Rhodes scholarship and a Guggenheim fellowship. In 1984 he became the first philosopher since Bertrand Russell to deliver the BBC's Reith Lecture.
Searle has authored many books including Speech Acts (1969), Expression and Meaning (1979), Mind, Brains, and Science (1984), and The Rediscovery of Mind (1992).
John Searle's appearance at the Athenaeum is second in the Phi Beta Kappa and Gould Center Lecture Series on Questions of Civilization.
Is the Death Penalty Just?
Perhaps no issue in American public policy is more controversial than whether the state should execute murderers, a punishment that is meted out to a small fraction of those convicted of homicide in the United States. Each year in this country there are about 20,000 murders, 10,000 persons convicted of homicide, 250-300 sentences to death, and about 50-60 executions. Nearly 3,300 murderers sit on death row in the thirty-eight states that authorize capital punishment.
The Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum is pleased to present the first of two lectures on the justice of the death penalty, one on each side of this emotional issue. In this first session one of the nation's most experienced and public defenders of capital punishment, William J. Kunkle, Jr., of the Chicago law firm Cahill, Christian & Kunkle, will argue the case for the justice of the death penalty.
After graduating from Northwestern University Law School in 1969, Kunkle spent three years as a public defender in Chicago, thirteen years in Chicago as a prosecutor in the Cook County State's Attorney's Office, and is now completing fourteen years in private practice. He has also served as Chairman of the Illinois Gaming Board, Chief Deputy Special Outside Counsel in the investigation of former Speaker of the House Jim Wright in 1988-89, and chief investigator into complaints filed against then Republican Whip Newt Gingrich in 1989. Although his current practice consists of primarily civil cases, he occasionally represents criminal defendants, particularly in federal court. Earlier this year Kunkle made national headlines when, serving as Special State's Attorney appointed by the chief judge of DuPage County (IL), he led an investigation that resulted in a 73-count indictment of four sheriffs police and three former prosecutors for perjury, conspiracy, and obstruction of justice in a controversial local death penalty case.
Most of Kunkle's experience with death penalty cases comes from his thirteen years as a full-time prosecutor. During his time in the State's Attorney's Office Kunkle served as secondin-command to the elected State's Attorney, Richard M. Daley. Kunkle was responsible for administering an office of 585 attorneys, and personally prosecuted nearly eighty felony jury trials, including over fifty murder cases.
Kunkle's most famous case was The People of Illinois vs. John Gacy (1980). One of the nation's most notorious serial killers, Gacy was convicted of killing thirty-three young men and boys. Kunkle led the prosecution team, focusing his efforts particularly on Gacy's insanity defense. In the letter that he wrote which accompanied Gacy to death row, he described Gacy as "a man capable of the cruelest sexual sadism imaginable ... a con-man, a malingerer, a manipulator, a skilled torturer and an equally skilled killer." He concluded: "Justice for thirty-three families and all of the people of Illinois will be finally achieved only when this evil man, John Gacy, is executed according to the laws of this state." The state of Illinois executed Gacy by lethal injection in 1994.
Please join us for a provocative discussion of justice and the death penalty by one of our nation's top litigators.
The Goldwyn Age of Hollywood
The best-selling Goldwyn: A Biography (1989) by A. Scott Berg is more than the life story of the legendary film mogul Samuel Goldwyn; it also chronicles the American motion picture industry from its origins to the present. Director Billy Wilder called it "the best book about Hollywood I've ever read." In his presentation Berg will use clips from films such as Wuthering Heights (1939), The Best Years of Our Lives (1946), The Little Foxes (1941), Dead End (1937), and performances by Gary Cooper, Laurence Olivier, Bette Davis, Barbara Stanwyk, Danny Kaye, Marlon Brando, Humphrey Bogart, and many others. Berg will survey American movies through the life and career of Samuel Goldwyn, examining how movies reflect the changing taste of the celebrated producer as well as his audience. It is a story of The American Dream and a man who believed in it, lived it, and manufactured it. And that dream embraces a large part of the history of cinema from early silent pictures to Technicolor musicals.
Berg's reputation as a biographer and cultural historian was established in his landmark book Max Perkins: Editor of Genius (1997), the story of the great editor who nurtured and developed the careers of F. Scott Fitzgerald, Ernest Hemingway, Thomas Wolfe, Marjorie Kinnan Rawlings, Alan Paton, James Jones, and dozens of other important writers. Published in 1978, it became a national bestseller and won the National Book Award.
With the cooperation of Anne Morrow Lindbergh, Berg is currently writing a biography of Charles A. Lindbergh which will examine all aspects of his multifaceted career in aviation, business, medicine, public affairs, the military, and literature.
A. Scott Berg was graduated from Princeton University in 1971 and has lectured extensively in the United States and Great Britain. He is a member of the Authors Guild, the Writers Guild of America, Pen Center USA West, and the Century Association. He lives in Los Angeles.
Race, Crime, and the Law
Though racism and the judicial system has been a hot topic for much of the last century, the particular problems of police discrimination based on race, race-specific jury selection practices, and racial inequality in capital punishment have become especially contested. Harvard Law Professor Randall Kennedy has attempted the daunting task of grappling with these tough dilemmas. Proposing solutions that have been described as progressive but not radical, Kennedy addresses problems by overtly trying to find the common ground between liberals and conservatives, blacks and whites. His self-proposed purpose is "to facilitate the emergence of a polity that is overwhelmingly indifferent to racial differences, a polity that looks beyond looks."
A Rhodes Scholar from Princeton, Kennedy went on to study law at Yale. After receiving his degree, he clerked for Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall and has been teaching law at Harvard since 1984. In addition to founding the magazine, Reconstruction, Kennedy's work has appeared in such publications as The Harvard Law Review, Yale Law Review, The New York Times, Newsweek, The Washington Post, The New Republic, and ABA Journal. He is on the editorial boards of the Nation, Dissent, and The American Prospect.
Named in 1994 as one of Time magazine's "50 Americans under 40 destined to shape the future of the U.S.," Kennedy is the first speaker in the Athenaeum series Justice and the Law.
Show and Tell in the 21st Century: The New Juror
Scientific "people watching" is how Jo-Ellan Dimitrius describes her work. As the lead jury consultant for the O.J. Simpson legal defense team, she applied the latest in social science techniques such as mock juries and focus groups to construct the perfect jury questionnaire. She then tabulated her responses and graded each candidate on a variety of categories including empathy, punitiveness, and leadership. With this data on hand and a bit of her trademark intuition, Dimitrius selected the jury that produced a not-guilty verdict in the so-called trial of the century.
Though her job is certainly at times glamorous, Dimitrius first examined the profession of jury consulting through the eyes of a dedicated academic. She is a graduate of Scripps College and Claremont Graduate University, where she earned a Ph.D. in criminal justice and politics. Dimitrius has long been interested in the relationship between the television and radio media and the ability of an individual or corporation to receive a fair jury trial. The 6th Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees the right to a fair trial, and it is Dimitrius's belief that media saturation and instant communication have increased the tendency of the public to prejudge high-profile cases. As a jury consultant, Dimitrius selects cases-ranging from the policeman accused of beating Rodney King to Heidi Fleiss to corporations facing toxic law violations-where she can assist the underdog who has been the brunt of significant public criticism before trial.
Dimitrius will elaborate on her perceptions about the role that the information age plays in the jury system. Dr. Dimitrius is the second speaker in the series justice and the Law, which will focus on potential pitfalls in the efforts of America's courts to decide cases justly.
Censorship, Politics, and the Culture of Transgression
With the public outcry over the Robert Mapplethorpe exhibit, NBC's resistance to the recently proposed television ratings system, and heated controversy over legislation that would restrict or filter the flow of information available to citizens, the classic debate over censorship in a liberal democratic society has again emerged at the forefront of current issues.
To illuminate the crucial topic of censorship in the contemporary political and cultural environment, the Gould Center for Humanistic Studies has engaged Martha Bayles, author of Hole in Our Soul: The Loss of Beauty and Meaning in American Popular Music (1996) and a nationally recognized authority on issues of censorship and government support of the arts, as its special program director. To complement and amplify the material covered in the Gould Center undergraduate seminar she will be leading this fall, Bayles has herself enlisted several experts who will discuss various aspects of issues taken up in the course. The first speaker in the series will be James Q. Wilson.
In a Reason magazine interview, Wilson remarked that underclass culture is "something which gets magnified and endorses certain kinds of behavior. The media are partly responsible, but not because there is violence on TV... I think television's main effect has to do with socialization. Viewers are absorbed in a world of self-expression, compulsiveness, immediate gratification-that's what TV gives you." In his Athenaeum presentation Wilson will address the limits of social science evidence in the debate over censoring or regulating violence in the media.
James Q. Wilson is the James Collins Professor of Management and Public Policy at UCLA and the author or editor of several books including The Moral Sense (1993) and The Politics of Regulation (1980). For decades Wilson has helped shape public policy not only by the force and eloquence of his writing and teaching, but also by his service on national commissions, which include the White House Task Force on Crime and The President's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board.
From the Director
The Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum has not been left behind in the surge of energy that has permeated the CMC campus this summer. Every square inch of the interior has been polished, painted, reupholstered, or papered. For those of you who have debated the merits of tall chair vs. small chair, the Security Pacific dining room boasts all-new chairs and table tops. You will also find state-of-the-art sound and lighting.
The program schedule will continue to offer an intellectual smorgasbord. Says founding trustee Donald McKenna, who thought up the Athenaeum concept for the college, "The Athenaeum is supposed to be an anti-department." The idea is to allow you to engage in informal intellectual pursuits not necessarily connected to your classes.
Some programs are organized into series and will include speakers focusing on such topics as censorship, justice and the law, baseball, the American dream, questions of civilization, film, contemporary issues in business, and the Holocaust. We will also host poets, writers, and musicians.
I urge you to take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy a gourmet meal, visit with friends and professors, and meet some of the distinguished guest speakers. To reserve a place for the dinner or lunch preceding a lecture, please fill out the reservation form on the last page of The Fortnightly and drop it by the Athenaeum office. Our staff works to create a refined dining experience and so we expect you to dress up a bit for dinner- no shorts, jeans, or T-shirts, please. Reservations are not needed to attend just the 6:45 p.m. presentation.
You are also invited to drop by Parents Library for the popular daily afternoon tea featuring Sid's homemade cookies and pastries. Teas are held from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Athenaeum fellows for this academic year are Jon Baarsch and L. John Nelson. You will be seeing and hearing from them soon.
Kick-off the Fall Semester with the Dean of Students Office and the Athenaeum!
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1997 7:00 p.m.
As a veteran musician, it's my job to make sure that what it is I do or know about is being passed along to a younger generation.
-Tai Mahal
Born Henry Saint Clair Fredericks, the man who would later become known to the world as Taj Mahal is a seasoned master and purveyor of the blues in all its forms, including R&B, soul, rock & roll, jazz, zydeco, West African, Caribbean-Taj has played it all. The oldest of nine children, Taj Mahal grew up in Springfield, Massachusetts, in a home filled with music. His mother was a gospel-singing school teacher, and his father a West Indian composer/arranger and avid jazz fan.
As an adolescent, Taj explored the roots of American blues and other forms of music filtered through the black experience in America. He idolized such pioneers as Jimmy Reed, Howlin' Wolf, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Sleepy John Estes, Sonny Terry, and other masters. After earning his degree in animal husbandry from the University of Massachesetts in 1964, he emerged professionally the following year as cofounder, with guitarist Ry Cooder, of The Rising Sons.
In a career spanning over three decades, Taj has toured, recorded, and/or performed with other great artists, including Eric Clapton, Bonnie Raitt, B.B. King, Miles Davis, Jim Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, the Neville Brothers, and the Rolling Stones. His new album, Senior Blues (1997), brings to 36 the number of albums Taj Mahal has recorded.
Taj has acted in films and composed motion picture scores; he wrote the Grammy nominated score for the Broadway production Mule Bone (1991), based on a play by Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston.
You are cordially invited to attend this admission-free concert, sponsored by the CMC Dean of Students Office and the Marian Miner Cook Athenaeum. The dinner at the Athenaeum preceding the concert is open to CMC persons only. The concert at Garrison Theater is open to members of the 5-College community.

- Shopping Bag ( 0 items )
From Barnes & Noble
Some runners get injured frequently; others, seemingly never. It was this question and the throbbing pain of his foot that inspired Christopher McDougall to track down Mexico's Tarahumara, a group of long distance runners who had earned an enviable reputation of excelling without injury. His trip to the Copper Canyons to learn from them and run with them reads like both an instruction process and a runner's pilgrimage. Indeed, the lessons that these sturdy Native Americans teach him possess almost a spiritual quality. A gentle guide for serious runners; now in trade paperback and NOOK Book. Editor's recommendation.

Keep repeating all of that to yourself and maybe someday you will become deranged enough to actually believe it yourself. Right now, you have a window of opportunity to jettison these ludicrous notions and go out and learn some science and try to figure out what's actually true, rather than trying stick legs underneath your magical fantasy land. It will probably not be open for long, and then you will be back to stuck in the darkness of your ignorance.

sad. Empty accusations and assertions won't convince anyone, that you hold a position that makes most sense…..

I am hosting a skins tournament on Saturday March 14. It looks like we have enough interested to play on that date. The instructions are below. Basically I'm stealing Lyle's tournament instructions he has posted in the Out of Town events (Thanks Lyle). Please support Lyle becuase he really supports us too.
I will be putting Nov/Rec/Int as AMs and Adv/Open as pros. Since you are grouped by ratings it won't matter if you are Advanced because you are playing against other advanced players. Also IQ is easy enough to were the difference between a high rated Advanced and Low rated Pro won't make much of a difference.
Please let everyone know that may not visit the board. Martin will be posting information at the courses.
Iroquois disc golf course, Louisville, KY
Foursomes playing for discs or cash on every hole

Each Am foursome will compete for 18 discs over 18 holes. (The discs will be DX, Champion or Star from the last few tournaments that we had in Louisville and some other discs collected by the club)
Each Pro foursome will compete for $10 per hole
Traditional Skins Game rules will be followed (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skins_game for more information). Ties will be broken on playoff holes (1, 2, 15, 18 - More if needed)
Am entry is $30 per person. Pro entry is $50 per person.

Comfy, Quiet House Just Outside the City
My husband and I spent 2 weeks here and enjoyed the house, neighborhood and sights of Tucson very much. It was a wonderful place to come home to after a day of exploring Tucson and southern Arizona. The house and yard were very clean when we arrived (unlike a previous VRBO in Vegas we stayed at). It was quite comfortable, with everything we needed. The kitchen was very well stocked, although we did not cook very much. King bed in the master bedroom was great to sleep on, and there was a very roomy walk-in closet and bath. We did not use the other 3 bedrooms at all, but they were all good size and could sleep several prople. We were glad to be able to bring our dog and cat along; they both had a great time in the backyard chasing lizards. The pool was too cool to swim in when we were there, but it was relaxing to sit by it in the sun. We did use the hot tub a few times, and ate on the patio every morning. The neighborhood is fairly new, well kept and very quiet. We took walks with the dog each morning and enjoyed seeing the desert vegetation. The nearest grocery stores and restaurants are 15-20 min. away, but we did a lot of driving anyway, to see the attractions of Tucson. The house is located not far off of I-10, southeast of Tucson, so you feel like you are in the country. It was nice to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but close enough to take advantage of what the city offered. Being on the southeast side, it was easy access and close to Tombstone, Bisbee and other towns south of Tucson. Karen, the property manager, was great to work with. The only small glitch was not being able to get a hold of her the day we arrived, but after waiting at the house about 15 min. she did call and gave us a code to get in. She quickly came over to fix the signal on the TV in the master bedroom, and gave us some ideas for restaurants nearby. It was a wonderful place to escape the deep snow at home!

Common forms of ginger include fresh root, dried root, tablets, capsules, liquid extract, tincture, and tea. Many publications note that the maximum recommended daily dose of ginger is 4 grams. It is believed that the mild stomach upset sometimes caused by ginger may be reduced by taking ginger capsules rather than powder.
Many experts and publications suggest that ginger powder, tablets, or capsules or freshly cut ginger can be used in doses of 1 to 5 grams daily, by mouth, divided into smaller doses.
Children (under 18 years old)
There is insufficient scientific evidence to recommend the use of ginger in children.

What's the difference? they both mean 'paying it attention' rather than forgetting it.
(Andrew): Forget it? On the contrary, you're supposed to observe it by refraining from work. "Forgetting it" is what Christians have done.
Re 'we have'nt mentioned the 10 commandments' - that's what i've been talking about, all along, as 'the Mosaic Law'
(Andrew): Well then, no wonder you're confused. The Mosaic Law is the total of the law as found in Exodus, Deuteronomy and Leviticus. The Ten Commandments are only part of it.
Re 'Jesus never existed' [You wish!] there's plenty of evidence for that…
(Andrew): Actually there's precious little—none solid. But the existence (or not) of Jesus is not the topic of this thread. It's about how Paul's "Christ" fulfilled the Law. And the answer, of course, is he didn't…if by "fulfill" it's meant that it's been somehow cancelled or declared null and void. The Law as outlined in scripture is still in effect and will be forever.
Re "suit yourself" You know very well that no-one - least of all the so-called 'moderate' christian - is going to get the chance to say what he/she wants, because it is your job to thwart it.
(Andrew): I have no idea where you're going with that, but "suit yourself" was my response to your saying that you wouldn't be "bothering" with me any longer. You seem to have changed your mind?

The people that comment on the posts of all video game and TV show FBs are some of the worst people you will ever have the displeasure of (not) knowing.

Anonymity and/or the fact you can't get your hands on them. FB is a general idea of how people think and act behind closed door and why you should never like, trust, help, or care if any of them die. All cannon fodder.

I just follow them on Twitter. Don't bother on Facebook due to what the TC pointed out. Can you imagine how irritating it must be for the person in charge of R*'s Facebook page?
Laws are a tedious business and counting coppers is worse
what about youtube that has some of the worst people on earth
I loathe facebook and twitter.. I don't know how anyone has the time to sit there and read, pry and investigate what their 300 other friends are doing on a minute to minute basis.. Its so disturbing to me.
I agree though, the majority of people commenting on facebook and youtube are halfwits, and most of them are likely under 13 yrs old.
Off topic; It cracks me up how much of a con facebook is.. Even Zuckerturd knows this, hence his sell out... He knew damn well the outcome, its almost comical that individuals foresaw financial gain in buying up facebook shares. Those shares are worthless now. More people are dumping facebook than joining these days, and because of that, facebook will inevitably out of desperateness try the myspace thing of charging fees for ridiculous reasons.. I've already read a few articles about how they're toying around with the idea of charging a fee for sending specific messages.... Good move facebook, that'll get'um to join.

I genuinely would've snapped by now and written a long rant at them. They've got over 3 million likes, and about half of them seem to just be obsessed with GTA V. I mean yeah, I'm anticipating it, but you'd think it was the only thing in some people's lives. I remember looking through some pics about the Max Payne 3 DLC, and someone had gone on every single photo (and there was about 26) and posted the exact same thing saying "NO ONE CARES, WHERE'S GTA?"
It's like dude, chill out. Get a hobby.
Best in the World!

Facebook and twitter are turning this younger generation into major narcissist IMO. Look at most any person 18 or younger and it's all self taken pics that scream "look at me, I'm soooo hot". When did we all become so f***ing important that we have to tell everyone every little step we take in our daily lives? And no I don't want to look at your god damn farm on FarmVille, no I don't care that Joe answered a question about me, oh Ashton has 20 million followers on twitter, good for him I don't care. Facebook to me is the ultimate stalker site and twitter is just dumb if you ask me.

Can there be Objective Moral Truths?
(Before we even speak about the word morality we need to have a good definition of good or bad what is usable objectively and unambiguous).
Meaning & Definition
When we use the words right or wrong what do we mean by these words and what is it about certain acts that make them wrong. So when we look at certain acts what do they involve to make us come to the conclusion they are wrong.
What do all morally right deeds have in common which set them apart from all morally wrong deeds?
Moral Act = Promoting well-being, happiness and health also demoting suffering, harm and pain.
Immoral Act = Demoting well-being, happiness and health but promoting suffering, harm and pain.
Objective Truths
Also understand that what i have stated is not subjective it is objective, it is not only my opinion that torture causes harm and affects well-being, because pain and suffering are real and measurable things. Just like how murdering promotes harm, so saving a life minimizes harm and also promotes the longevity of life.
We don't need to agree that you feel pain or un-happiness when tortured for you to actually feel pain, just like i don't need to agree that you're dying for you to actually be dying.
A brain experiences happiness, joy, pain, an suffering so we can subject people to experiences whilst connected to a EEG (Electroencephalography). The EEG records activity in the brain, the activity it's measuring is fluctuations of neurons. Now these experiences may be subjective to the individual but it is an objective occurrence.
But do we need certain technology to assert that rape or torture will cause suffering?
So we might give subjective accounts and descriptions through experience of events of joy, happiness, or pain and suffering but there still objective.
There is only Subjective!
Now we hit a problem because people might say it's only my subjective personal opinion that something morally wrong can be defined as something "demoting well-being, happiness and health but promoting suffering, harm and pain".
But it will be because there is no such thing as right or wrong definitions, the meanings we use for different sounds and letters will always be arbitrary and subjective. But what isn't arbitrary and subjective is the thing you're describing.
So if three people put there hand in fire, the pain they experience will be delivered in a subjective arbitrary description, but the pain is objective because it is inherent in all three.
Moral Facts Can't Exist
Many people state that in order for objective morality - or even morality - to even exist we need moral precepts that admit of NO exceptions. For instance if it is wrong to kill it should always be wrong to kill.
So should we of killed Stalin, did he deserve to die?
So lets look at how we state a fact from a non-fact, in order to state something as truth we need to exclude certain ideas in order to state something as fact. So whenever we talk about facts certain opinions need to be excluded. And this is how we build a domain of expertise, this is what it is for knowledge to even count.
How is it that morality can't subscribe to no exceptions, how can we state that every opinion has to count. How is it that every person or culture has a point of view what is valid and worth considering.
Did the Nazis have a considerable stand point on the longevity and welfare of Jews? NO! So how would of there point of view or values on morality and human welfare even be considerable.
So it seems in a sense we can state there's right and wrong paths for the journey of humanity, and morality is relative to this domain. We can't accept the difference in certain notions when it comes to human well-being anymore than on respecting different opinions on the safety standards of cars, houses or plains being built.

|September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month
The pediatric hematology-oncology program at All Children's Hospital Johns Hopkins Medicine is one of the largest in the southeast United States and a leading center for cutting-edge treatment and clinical research. We provide a multidisciplinary approach to care that includes integrated outpatient and inpatient service both on our main campus in St. Petersburg and All Children's Outpatient Care, Tampa (four days per week) – with support from a broad spectrum of expert and compassionate caregivers. In addition, we match your child with the best specialist for their situation and work collaboratively to provide individualized treatment for each case.
While 80 percent of pediatric cancer patients are cured – largely due to the success of pediatric cancer research – we must continue to aggressively pursue all options until no child dies from this disease.
Sadly, cancer remains the No. 1 killer of children under the age of 15. Some 10,500 kids are diagnosed with cancer each year in the United States (160,000 worldwide) and unfortunately more than 1,000 will die from their disease.
The good news is that we've made great strides in overcoming many of the types of cancers, especially when you consider that the cure rate in the 1960s was only 40 to 50 percent. Treatment has improved progressively due to what we've learned through clinical research trials.
That is why research is critically important in fighting this war, giving young patients and their families hope for a cancer-free future.

Economic Importance for Humans: Positive
Axolotls are an important research animal and have been used in studies of the regulation of gene expression, embryology, neurobiology, and regeneration. Occasionally taken as a food item (substituted for fish), axolotls are prepared by either roasting or boiling and the tail is eaten with vinegar or cayenne pepper. They have also been used for medicinal purposes. (Brunst, 1955a; Smith, Armstrong, and Malacinski, 1989)

Journal Articles
Marketing and Sales Strategy: Strategic Alignment and Functional Implementation
1996, Journal of Personal Selling & Sales Management
William M Strahle, Rosann L Spiro, Frank Acito
Many authors have argued that when a firm selects a particular marketing strategy, at the business-unit level, the organization should make functional level decisions which are aligned with the marketing strategy. This study examines the alignment between business-unit level marketing strategies and functional level sales objectives and activities for a specific products. In the study, marketing executives from 25 firms were asked to identify the marketing strategies and corresponding sales objectives for four of their current products. Three hundred and sixty-seven sales managers from the same firms were subsequently asked to identify the sales objectives for the products identified by their respective marketing managers and to rate the importance of various sales activities for these products. The results confirm, as many authors have speculated, that there are often discrepancies between marketing executives and their sales managers with regard to specific product strategies. Extensive post-survey interviews offer some interesting insights as to why discrepancies occur.

Multi-wavelength flare
June 28, 2012
The Sun unleashed a series of flares over several days, of which this one on September 6, 2011 was the largest, an X 2.1 flare (major). The still shows the flash of the flare in one wavelength of extreme ultraviolet (UV) light from SDO. The video clip presents a series of five stills taken at the same time in various wavelengths of UV light. The brightness of the flare causes very bright saturation and 'blooming' above and below the flare region on the CCD detector and caused extended diffraction patterns to spread out to some degree in all the images.

LC Early College students attend elite pharmacy event
Two juniors at Lenoir County Early College High School intent on becoming pharmacists got a boost along that career path on March 8 when they attended the prestigious LEAD program at UNC-Chapel Hill Eshelman School of Pharmacy.
Smikal Patel and Lindsey Turner, both of Kinston, qualified for Carolina Pharmacy LEAD (Leadership, Excellence and Development) by having demonstrated an interest in the field of pharmacy and posting a B average or better.
The girls heard about the program when they participated in a Pharmacy Friday earlier in the year at UNC's pharmacy school. Both students have a strong background in science and are simultaneously enrolled in high school and college-level chemistry classes.
LEAD is designed for students who are interested in a pharmacy career and want to be competitive in the pharmacy admissions process. At LEAD, students develop contacts with leading industry professionals, attend classes and seminars and explore career opportunities within the profession. They also participate in hands-on experiences with current student pharmacists, PhD students and faculty. The culminating event of Saturday's session was a panel discussion with pharmacy clinicians, researchers and other leaders in the pharmacy industry.
"I learned about the various career opportunities pharmacy has to offer at the LEAD program," Turner said. "There are so many things that people do not realize a pharmacist can do. Being able to participate in this program reassured my goal of becoming a pharmacist and hopefully I will be fortunate enough to attend UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy where I will earn a PharmD and possibly a PhD in pharmacy."
"We had an amazing time at UNC Eshelman School of Pharmacy," Patel said. "I went in wanting to be in the retail department of pharmacy and I knew there were other job opportunities, but I did not know that it was such a versatile career. I have learned that I have a lot of choices after my PharmD. It depends on what kind of approach you want to take in pharmacy and what kind of impact you want to make in the world! Now I just plan to shadow different types of pharmacist and then the rest is history."

LAURINBURG, N.C. - Paced by Reggie Hollinger's double-double with 27 points and 10 rebounds, Pfeiffer University notched a 79-69 victory at host St. Andrews in the 2011-2012 Conference Carolinas men's basketball league opener. The Falcons improve to 7-4 overall, 1-0 in league play while the Knights drop to 5-8, 0-1.
Pfeiffer got off to a slow start on Tuesday night as a pair of Antonio Moffitt free throws gave St. Andrews an early 10 point lead just 4:18 in. Down by as much as 13, the Falcons ripped off an 18-0 run that started with a Hollinger jumper in a span of less than five minutes.
Two free throws from Danny Smith knotted the contest at 24 while a three-ball by KC Anuna put the Falcons up eight, 32-24 with 2:46 before the half. Ryan Streater would help stop the bleeding for the Knights with a pair of late free throws as Pfeiffer held a 37-33 lead at the break.
Streater and Aaron Christian would slice the Falcon lead down to just two a couple of times early in the second before Hollinger again dropped crucial baskets to keep momentum on the visitor's side. Hollinger, along with a triple from Elijah Matthews, sent Pfeiffer up by as much as 14 late in the second while cashed-in opportunities from the charity stripe allowed the Falcons to grab the double-digit win.
Behind Hollinger's 27 and 10, Smith followed with 20 points on the night while Anuna chipped in with 11. The Knights picked up a game-high 26 from Streater as one of three in double-figures. Both teams struggled from the floor as Pfeiffer shot 39% in the win while maintaining a 44-40 advantage in rebounds.
Next for the Falcons will be their league home opener on Thursday night hosting Mount Olive. Tip time is set for 7:30 p.m. with live stats and video being available through http://www.gofalconsports.com.
