Your Views for July 2
Why we removed trees at Waiakea
This response is written to address Ms. JoAnn Frances Garrigan's comments printed in Your Views on June 28 about the recent tree removal fronting the Waiakea Office Plaza on Kekuanao'a Street in Hilo.
Planted about 40 years ago by the previous owners of the property, the trees presented a safety hazard to pedestrians, clientele and staff, as well as to surrounding traffic, parked cars and property. While Phase One of this landscape replacement project focuses on tree removal in order to mitigate these hazards, Phase Two will address replacement of the trees by establishing and installing a native landscape plan.
The department shares your sadness in the loss of the beauty and stature of the trees. However, to address safety as the main concern, the Water Board approved the project to move forward on March 20 to serve the best interest of the facility patrons, staff and surrounding property owners.

Big waste of money
In spite of their use-it-or lose-it warning to us last year, the County Council has dumped another $17,300 into its Ka'u videoconference site this year. That equals $360 per meeting, or $120 per minute, if they are lucky enough to get even one testifier.
The Ocean View Community Association owes their contract renewal to cronyism and log-rolling. Those cronies must be some heavy hitters, because nobody dared to pull the plug on that place. The county is subsidizing a private club out there.
Post offices and libraries must adjust their locations according to public use trends. The County Council is not capable of making those same decisions.

Not-so-alien invasion
I enjoy the Tribune-Herald (even more than I enjoyed the Star-Advertiser when I lived in Honolulu), but your over-hyped photos about the UFO "landing pad" in Puna on A1 in Sunday's edition went too far.
Hippies have been "landing" in Puna for decades! No news there!
What a waste of time and energy.

There is no royal road to professional success in medicine. Building a practice is proverbially slow work, but the man who, choosing his location with greater or less wisdom, burns his bridges behind him and doggedly waits, is he to whom success eventually comes.
One is struck, therefore, with the number of physicians who, having passed the "starvation period" of practice and commanding a certain degree at least of recognition, are unwilling to remain where they are, but seek what they believe to be fields with larger opportunities.
This thought is suggested by a terse little article1 by one who is alive to the best intersts of the profession, Dr. James F. Percy, president of the Illinois State Medical Society. As he well puts it: "I believe that in the majority of instances, this moving is a mistake. The time lost in obtaining a new foothold in a perhaps

SCOTTISH Opera's chorus members were told last night that they were to lose their jobs, barely ten minutes before the curtain was due to go up on a production of La Bohème.
The 35-strong chorus had been given the half-hour call as usual at Edinburgh's Festival Theatre, said Lorne Boswell, of the actors' union, Equity.
"Ten minutes before it was due to start, they were called in by the chorus manager and told face to face for the first time they were to be made redundant," he said. "They were then expected to turn around and perform."
The likelihood that the chorus would be the casualty of cut-backs has been reported in the press since January, Mr Boswell said. But he added: "It's one thing to read about it in the newspapers, it's another thing to be told by their line manager. We will be putting in a complaint to the company."
The audience was kept in the dark last night about the latest twist in the Scottish Opera saga, and chorus members are forbidden contractually from speaking to the press.
But the chorus staged a singing protest outside the theatre last night, both before and after the show, asking opera-goers to sign a petition supporting their case, as they have almost every night since cuts were announced.
One member of the chorus, who asked not to be identified, said: "We've learned that our biggest fears were accurate. People were stunned into silence.
"Somebody had to go and ask him to repeat the information later that evening because we didn't take it in. We were preparing to get changed and go on stage. It threw everybody. This is the first time that our management had said this."
At the end of the show, the conductor, Richard Farnes, joined the company on stage wearing the now-familiar black and white T-shirt reading, "No Chorus, No Opera, No Way". He and the principal singers led a sustained round of applause for the chorus members.
At La Bohme's last performance in Glasgow, the chorus was given a standing ovation and the audience stood to join them in singing Auld Lang Syne. The opera continues in Edinburgh for another week.
Mr Boswell has said that chorus members typically earn a modest salary of 22,000 after ten years' service.
But their contracts do allow them to take on outside work if they can find it, such as weddings, corporate events or concerts.
Earlier yesterday, the employees of Scottish Opera had taken their protest against job cuts to the Scottish Parliament, as it emerged that their cause had gained a prominent recruit.
The Opera's chief executive, Christopher Barron, has signed the union petition against the cuts that would see 88 jobs go in the company he runs.
More than 100 people from the company joined a protest outside the parliament's current home on the Mound.
Earlier this month, the Scottish Executive announced that it was spending up to 7 million on a package that would pay off the Opera's debts but entail it shedding nearly half its workforce and ceasing production for nearly a year.
In addition to the chorus, the Opera's technical staff were singled out as likely candidates for redundancy.
Yesterday, members of the Opera's 53-strong orchestra, who have been told their jobs will be retained, joined the protests.
The Conservatives' culture spokesman, Jamie McGrigor, said he hoped the protesters' singing pricked the consciences of ministers.
"One only had to listen to the superb demonstration of musical talent that attracted a large crowd on the Royal Mile to see the excellence that is being threatened," he said.
Mr Barron has kept mostly silent about the deal negotiated between the Opera's board and the Executive, unlike the Opera's music director, Sir Richard Armstrong.

Gena Gabrielle spent Saturday night Tweeting about Swift's Saturday Night Live cameo. The next day, she gleefully shared photos of her idol surprising her at her bridal shower in Columbus, Ohio.
"Apparently they told Taylor she didn't have time and she said no I'm going to ohio I can't make the wedding & I promised her," Gabrielle Tweeted on Sunday, later adding, "The driver told my dad she planned the trip at 1am & said 'I need to be there and I need to be on time' so blessed to have her in my life."
So what made Gabrielle stand out from legions of loyal Swifties?
The Today Show reports the two have met during multiple fan meet-and-greets. Gabrielle's Twitter background picture even includes photos of her posing with a much younger Swift.
Despite reports that Swift crashed the party – a throwback to rumors of her getting kicked out of a Kennedy wedding in 2012 – Gabrielle said the pop singer received an invitation. And she came bearing gifts, including Le Creuset kitchen supplies and a Barefoot Contessa cookbook.
Check out Gabrielle's pictures with Swift below.
Taylor left! But today was amazing! Thank you for making today even more special. pic.twitter.com/J7voNcHdtH— Gena Gabrielle (@GenaGabrielle) April 13, 2014

Wounded Veterans Denied Autism Treatment for Children (Video)Joslyn Gray
"When a servicemember commits to defending our country and our freedoms," says Rachel Kenyon, "there is no question that, as a nation, we are responsible for providing the very best care for them AND their families back home."
Ms. Kenyon knows what she's talking about. As a military wife and the mother of a daughter with autism, she's fighting to change how the military's insurance program covers autism treatments for children. Currently, active duty families receive limited treatment under ECHO (Extended Care Health Option), under TRICARE, the military's insurance program. Dependents of military retirees aren't eligible for ECHO, though. So that means that dependents of military retirees, including those forced to medically retire after being wounded, are denied autism treatment.
"HR2288 – Caring for Military Kids with Autism Act would make autism treatments available to all military families, whether active duty or retired," Ms. Kenyon said to me in an interview this morning. "It also removes the arbitrary dollar cap on care."
"The bill sits idle in the House Armed Services Committee with 69 bipartisan cosponsors," she noted. "Our families are still waiting for Congress to take action and bring HR2288 to a favorable vote for the 23,000 military children with autism."
Ms. Kenyon created this moving, but troubling, video to further the cause:
You can find out more about the Caring for Military Kids with Autism Act (HR 2288) at CMKAA's website, and follow the group on Facebook. Ms. Kenyon has also organized a petition on Change.org asking the United States government and the Department of Defense to do right by our military personnel.
As a U.S. Army veteran and a mother of two kids on the autism spectrum, I'm appalled at the situation. You bet I signed the petition. But you don't need to be a vet or a special needs mom to find it offensive that these families are being completely screwed. Surely our wounded warriors, and their families, deserve better.
Oh, by the way? If you think the government is on top of this, check out this video from the House Committee on Appropriations from March 8, in which Rep. Maurice Hinchey (NY) questions the Dr. Jonathan Woodson, Director of TRICARE Management Activity on its coverage of autism treatments. Rep. Hinchey's questions start at about 23:00. At about the 28:00 mark, after bragging about TRICARE's ECHO program, Dr. Woodson admits he doesn't know what ECHO stands for.
It stands for Extended Care Health Option, Dr. Woodson, and it's only available to active duty military.
Yeah…that petition again is at Change.org.

Rochdale travel to Southend tomorrow knowing they can climb into the top three for the first time this season, writes Ben Collins.
A run of five games unbeaten in League Two has pushed Dale up to sixth in the table.
They visit a side just one point behind them after hitting eight in two games over the last week.
But both those victories were on the road and like Dale, Southend's home record is worse than their away.
"The league's closing up now and we've got ourselves in the mix," said Dale's assistant manager Jimmy Bell. "But teams like Chesterfield and Southend are moving up behind us so we've not got to settle for the top six. We've got to push for the automatic promotion places – that's what we're aiming for."
Loanee Britt Assombalonga has already hit 11 goals for Southend this season while Gavin Tomlin scored four in the last two.
Rochdale A.F.C. finally call on home help
Rochdale FC 2 Bristol Rovers 1
But Bell and Dale boss John Coleman are also admirers of Southend's back four, so much so they almost signed one of them in the summer – ex-Bury centre-half Ryan Cresswell.
"We were on the verge of signing him from Rotherham," said Bell. "He chose Southend because of finances and he wanted a longer contract, but we weren't a million miles away."
Dale have no new injuries or suspensions so could name an unchanged line-up.
Score prediction: Southend United 1-2 Rochdale A.F.C
Do you agree with the prediction? Have your say.

The 2014 recruiting cycle officially came to a close Wednesday, and head coach Charlie Strong and his staff pulled in 23 new Longhorns for the coming years.
Strong and his crew had to work hard to hold together a group that had six decommitments after the coaching transition. But at the end of the day, most of the core was retained, although Texas did sustain a couple of key losses.
Nevertheless, the newcomers will serve to kickoff Strong's tenure in Austin as we will get to see the growth and development of this initial recruiting class over the next four years.
But in which positions did UT strike gold?

Penn State is doing everything it can to follow all rules and regulations in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal, Bill O'Brien said, and the coach hopes the NCAA will take that into consideration and ultimately reduce some of the severe sanctions levied against the football program.
O'Brien spoke on a teleconference with reporters Friday, one week after addressing the NCAA sanctions with the Penn State Board of Trustees. The coach believes that all the good things Penn State has done over the past year should count for something with the NCAA.
O'Brien's hope is that eventually the NCAA might meet Penn State "halfway" and reduce the sanctions, which include a four-year bowl ban and significant scholarship losses.
"I believe that this football program is being run the right way, and I believe that we have great kids here," O'Brien said. "I think we've worked very, very diligently to stay in compliance, just like every other program around the country.
"There are a lot of rules to follow, and again, we make our mistakes, but we admit them right away, whether it's a text message or something that we shouldn't have sent. I think we are in compliance, and hopefully at some point the NCAA, the governing body of college athletics, hopefully they look at that, and they can meet us halfway."
O'Brien's presentation to the Board of Trustees included a slide show that was supposed to be private, since it occurred during an executive session.
But a reporter from the Centre Daily Times was able to read some of the slides through a glass door and reported on what O'Brien addressed.
The coach was asked Friday if he's disappointed that information got released to the public.
"No," he said. "I was invited down to the Board of Trustees to present to them the sanctions and my thoughts on the sanctions. I have been asked many, many questions over the last 19 months about the sanctions, so I accepted the invitation, and I went down there.
"I don't have anything to hide."
One of O'Brien's slides included the words "potential proposal to modify sanctions." As of now, there are no specifics known about what that proposal entails or when it might be brought up with the NCAA.
"We are focused on dealing with the sanctions as they are right now," PSU Athletic Director Dave Joyner said. "So whatever may or may not happen down the line is always contingent.
"We are not planning on anything happening, so we are paying attention to doing what we have to do with what we have been given to do and doing it very well."
Joyner added that the school has received "good marks" from the NCAA about its compliance issues involving the sanctions.
"I think the university has done an outstanding job," Joyner said.
O'Brien agreed, saying, "I believe to this point that we've done as good a job as we thought we could do."
Whether any of that sways the NCAA to reduce the sanctions remains to be seen, and any such proposal could take a while to be brought forward since Penn State is still very early on in the sanction period.
The Nittany Lions went 8-4 last season, the first dealing with the sanctions, and the program has continued to recruit at a high level, which could bode well for the future.
"It won't be easy, but I believe that this is a place that can be successful, whether it's with sanctions or without sanctions," O'Brien said.

Re: WWE: A New Era Beckons
Wade Barrett comes out with the World Title to open the show. Barrett mocks The Undertaker saying that although his team won the Survivor Series match, Taker ended up losing his WWE Title unlike Barrett who is still the World Champion. Barrett continued to talk about Cena.
Barrett – "All around there is one name being discussed – John Cena. Cena cashed in, Cena this, Cena that. As much as I hated The Undertaker, I atleast respected him for being a credible WWE Champion. But John Cena, I don't consider you a champion. So, it would not be wrong to say that the biggest name in the WWE currently, the only real champion in the whole of WWE is me – Wade Barrett. This World Title is the real deal, and I am the one who holds it."
****MACMILITANT**** (Teddy Long comes out with a mic)
Teddy Long – "You know something, playa. Last night, no doubt you left the arena as the World Champion but you did no justice to your title. You did not eliminate even a single Team RAW member quite unlike you had promised to lead from the front as a leader. So, if you want to call yourself the only real champion in WWE, you need to defend that belt, playa. Tonight, in a No.1 contender's match we will have Randy Orton facing off against Chris Jericho and Batista in a triple threat match." (huge pop from the crowd)
Barrett looks angry and Long does his stupid dance.
1. Edge comes out dressed in jeans and tee. He takes the mic and announces his retirement from pro wrestling due to a bugging physical condition. Edge thanks all his fans and promises to cherish all the memories he had had in the ring. He mentions that he did some weird stuffs in his last reign as the World Champion and wishes luck to Wade Barrett mentioning that although he does not like him, he sees immense potential in the young man.
Edge – "What else? I guess I would have been remembered for providing the most shocking moment in the history of WWE, but damn you John Cena. Hell, I was the pioneer still (the audience give a huge pop). You had Cena, now you have Undertaker. But, I hope that one name that comes to everybody's mind when you hear Money in the Bank is – the audience shouts "Edge".
Edge finally does his formal greetings and bids farewell to the crowd.
2. Mark Henry comes out and cribs about losing out on his IC Title and that no one cares if Edge retires, he should be the champion. Suddenly the music hits and the audience is shocked. It's Bobby Lashley making his comeback to WWE. Lashley wins the match via spear resulting in an unintended tribute towards Edge.
Bobby Lashley def. Mark Henry via pinfall at 5:19
3. Khali backstage meets Ryder and Santino and expresses his desire to have the match with Ryder tonight. Santino replies that they will be taking part in the Tag Team Battleroyal to which Ranjin responds "See you there". Khali smiles and leaves and Santino looks worried.
4. Dolph Ziggler comes out with Maria holding the IC Title. He has a non-title match with JTG. Ziggler wins the squash match via Zig Zag.
Dolph Ziggler def. JTG via pinfall at 4:28
Ziggler then boasts about how he is undefeated in WWE till now and he has lady luck on his side.
Tag Team Invitational Battle Royal:
All the teams start coming out. RVD & MVP join the commentators ringside. The ring keeps getting filled with Haas/Benjamin, Carlito/Masters, London/Kendrick, Santino/Ryder, former champions Chavo/Rey. Suddenly, Kennedy and JBL come out. Then, Ted Dibiase comes out with Brett Dibiase. Khali comes out with Ranjin Singh. Kane comes out with Kofi Kingston. And, Yoshi Tatsu comes out with Viscera as the final team. Santino talks to Ryder plotting to eliminate their enemies first.
The match gets underway. Kennedy gets the first elimination by throwing out Kofi Kingston. Kane looks angry and gets out of the ring throwing Kofi into the barricades and continuing to hit him over the announcer's table.
Ryder eliminates Tatsu and both he and Santino celebrate. As they turn around, Khali is standing behind them. Khali eliminates both Santino & Ryder at once. Ranjin goes towards Khali but Rey puts him down. Khali himself leaves the ring to beat Santino who flees away and Khali/Ranjin get eliminated inadvertently.
Eliminations: Kane/Kofi, Tatsu/Viscera, Santino/Ryder, Khali/Ranjin.
JBL & Kennedy get the upper had. Carlito tries to throw down Kennedy but due to the momentum he himself falls over the top rope. Masters is shocked and Benjamin hits the superkick on him to put him out also (while it was not needed). London/Kendrick double team to throw out Benjamin who is shocked to be eliminated. Ted & Brett begin to fight London & Kendrick and finally Ted Dibiase eliminates Paul London.
Eliminations: Carlito/Masters, Haas/Benjamin, London/Kendrick
JBL goes for the clothesline from hell over Rey but Rey counters him and throws him out. Kennedy & JBL are eliminated. Now it is down to Chavo/Rey and Ted/Brett. Brett Dibiase scores the win for his team when he eliminates Chavo Guerrero. Ted looks happy and hugs his brother raising his hand.
Winners: Ted Dibiase & Brett Dibiase.
RVD & MVP stand up in the commentator's seat and begin clapping for their opponents.
6. The titantron shows a recap of last week's RAW where WWE Champion John Cena gave Undertaker a chance of a lifetime by providing him the MITB opportunity to cash in anytime he wants. As RAW ended, all the lights went off but the Wrestlemania sign at the top of the arena was ON with Undertaker sending a message to Cena.
Backstage, as Edge leaves, he meets Jericho who is going for the No.1 contender's match. Edge wishes him luck and Jericho says that it's high time the World Title came to someone who will do justice to it. Jericho also tells Edge that he will give him first row tickets as a gift when he defends the World Title at Wrestlemania as Edge will have a lot of free time to which Edge chuckles and leaves.
No.1 contender's match: (Orton vs Batista vs Jericho)
Wade Barrett joins the commentators ringside. The match goes on for long with Batista being in control in the initial moments of the match. Batista and Orton team up and keep Jericho at bay throwing him out of the ring and colliding in the ring.
In the final moments, Orton misses an RKO and Batista puts him down with a spinebuster. Jericho clotheslines Batista outside the ring. The referee is tending to Orton as Jericho takes Barrett's belt and hits it on Batista's head to knock him out. Barrett is shocked and goes behind Jericho as he takes the title to hit on Orton. The referee sees this and asks Jericho to leave the title and Barrett snatches it from him. Jericho comes into the ring and picks up Orton who hits the RKO out of nowhere for the pinfall.
Randy Orton def. Chris Jericho & Batista via pinfall at 11:18 to become the No.1 contender to World Title.
Randy Orton looks towards Wade Barrett with cold eyes while Barrett gives his usual arrogant look while leaving with the title towards the ramp.
The screen fades to black.
Matches confirmed for New Year's Revolution:
WWE Champion John Cena vs Drew McIntyre
World Champion Wade Barrett vs Randy Orton
The Big Show vs Ezekiel Jackson
Unified Tag Team Champions RVD & MVP vs Ted Dibiase & Brett Dibiase
P.S. - The Edge retirement was something which I took from WWE and thus did not give a full farewell emotional segment again. I only used Edge because he fitted the role of the World Champion needed at the start of my BTB which paved the way for the mysterious MITB storyline. Now that his work is over, I believe its better he retired here too rather than having a match at Wrestlemania.

Northshore 4th graders test above state averages
by Andrew Walgamott
NORTHSHORE--Test results for local fourth graders far exceeded state averages as well as school district expectations. Across Washington, less than half of the 68,000 fourth grade students tested via the new Criterion Reference Test last spring met or exceeded standards in the three Rs, reading, writing and arithmetic. State officials called the results "dismal."
But in Northshore, more than half of students met and exceeded standards in reading and writing, and beat state scores in math by 13.1 percentage points. Dr. Pamela Steele, Northshore School District communications director, said that the district traditionally scored above state averages on tests but was quick to point out last year's test wasn't similar to past tests.
The new test is different than the fill-in-the-bubble CTBS tests, a previous marker of student achievement. The new tests require students to explain steps they take to reach an answer. The tests ask students to apply their knowledge by writing descriptive essays, comparing information from different texts and using math skills to solve complex problems.
"They're asking for some pretty complex thinking, extrapolation and deductive reasoning," Steele said.
Northshore's numbers
Across the board, last year's fourth graders beat state averages in core subjects. Academic standards were set by fourth grade teachers and school administrators. According to numbers released by Northshore, 67.1 percent of area fourth graders met or exceeded standards in reading, topping the state average (47.6 percent) by 19.5 percentage points.
Local students also scored well above standards in writing, with 59.3 percent meeting or exceeding standards, compared to 42.2 percent state-wide. Northshore kids did comparatively well in math skills, compared to state numbers, but the mass fell far below standard. Locally, only 34.6 percent met or beat standards, as opposed to a lowly 21.5 percent state-wide.
Students across the board scored high in listening. Nearly 74 percent of Northshore 4th graders exceeded standards. Nearly 62 percent state-wide passed standards.
Fourth graders at Sunrise Elementary in English Hill paced Northshore with 58.1 percent besting math standards, and 79 percent topping reading and writing marks. Students at Moorlands in Kenmore scored lowest with only 19.5 percent meeting math standards and 56.3 passing reading standards.
Steele cited differences in school populations, and special programs such as gifted and English as a Second Language classes as cause of some variances in scores. She said test scores improved with length of stay in the district as well.
By comparison, several local private schools blew away even Northshore's high scores. All Woodinville Montessori fourth graders topped reading standards. Ninety percent of students at Bothell's Evergreen Academy met and exceeded reading, writing and listening standards.
But private schools tend to have fewer students and draw student from single socioeconomic groups, critics point out.
A test for the 21st century
Gov. Gary Locke and State Superintendent of Schools Terry Bergeson said the tests will prepare students for the next century. "We have a steep mountain to climb in the next few years to bring all of our students up to the skills and knowledge they'll need in the 21st Century, but there is no other option," Gov. Gary Locke said.
Superintendent of Public Education Terry Bergeson said headway had already been made in learning which was sparked by the 1993 Education Improvement Act.
"We moved from the agrarian society of Thomas Jefferson to the industrial nation of Edison, Carnegie and Ford. Now we are looking to the age of Gates, McCaw and Condit, where education and learning are the critical resources. They are the difference between barely making it and getting on the path to the American dream. We must make certain that all Washington children have a chance to get on that path. To do that, we must raise our expectations for all kids and hold ourselves accountable for the results," Bergeson said.
The 1993 reforms called for higher academic standards in core subjects, tests to measure student progress against standards at the fourth, seventh and tenth grades, and a system to hold school districts accountable for helping students meet standards.
Strategies to improve
Northshore School Superintendent Karen Forys said the scores weren't as high as the CTBS results.
"We weren't expecting them to be. Teachers need time to work with the new standards. They need time to determine appropriate and accurate methods to assess our students knowledge and their ability to apply that knowledge. Students need time to understand what's truly expected of them. And parents need time to understand the most effective ways to help their children reach these new standards," Forys said.
"We are proud of how well our students performed on these very difficult tests. We now have reliable data to use as a baseline. Knowing the location of the start line and the finish line makes the road to travel much easier to follow," Forys said.
Steele echoed the sentiment, saying "The schools will be working among themselves to share strategies that have been proven effective. There's no reason that can't happen between districts."
Northshore has begun an aggressive campaign to educate parents about the new tests. Mailings will go out from the PTA and school principals.
In the near future, 7th and 10th graders will begin taking similar tests, Steele said.

The sys admin's daily grind: login mail
Charly often gets suggestions and ideas for his column at community get-togethers. Last week, he picked up a tip for an early warning system that quickly secures login attempts.
Some servers I don't log in to for weeks on end. On machines like this, the danger of intruders being able to log in without my noticing is fairly high. And if attackers do manage to crack open a victim's computer, they will do everything they can to cover their tracks. This includes removing all traces of the login from the logs, which makes it more or less impossible to ascertain the exact time of the attack and – what's more important – the attacker's IP.

Marcela, Harrison, Lucas : MARX 2
1. What is the nature of the argument?
- Marx' rhetorical style differs from text to text. In 'The German Ideology' his audience is of a more academic nature, and he accordingly uses some of the relevant philosophical terms of the day in discussing German ideology. In 'Manifesto', Marx' and Engels' audience is broader and less intellectual, and he effectively tones down the level of sophistication in his rhetoric. In all his texts, marx makes extensive use of poetic literary devices such as metaphor- especially extended metaphors, sometimes spanning nearly a page - simile, and imagery
- is the argument inductive or deductive, does it generalize from the specific, or begin with an overarching theory and proceed to interpret specifics?
Both. Inductive most readily identifiable, as it accounts for the majority of his writing on historical materialism. Deductive can be seen in his writings on the french revolution, as well as some of his criticisms of German ideology in which he places philosophers into the model of academic cooperation and legitimization of bourgeois capitalism. (First few pages of 'German Ideology')
- to whom is the writing addressed? or for whom is it intended?
Marx' work differs in its intended audience. His texts that discuss the failings of political philosophy are intended for the academic sphere, whereas other work such as 'manifesto' is intended for a broader audience. "Workers of the world, Unite!"
Inductive - historical materialism. empirically observing socio-economic structure and making claims about the nature of historical progression
- Deductive reasoning?
Marx says social construction and place in division of labor dictates how you see the world
pg. 108
2. Who/What is the argument against?
German Idealists who have competed in maintaining a philosophical justification of status quo material relationships (105). The ruling class of society in terms of material is also the ruling intellectual class, and maintains, by presenting Hegelian philosophy as given, an unquestioned establishment of existing institutions
143 in ebook - "The industrialists of philosophy, having lived off the exploitation of absolute Spirit, then seized on the compounds. Each of them retailed his share with all possible zeal."
-Bourgeoisie - established new classes and systems of oppression
3. What is the argument?
Marx is attempting to introduce a new account of history that places focus on individuals' place in the means - between fellow countrymen and between different nations - as the salient force that has shaped most of human history.
"What the bourgeoisie, therefore, produces above all, is its own grave diggers. Its fall and the victory of the proletariat are equally inevitable." pg. 169
"overthrow of the bourgeois supremacy" pg. 169
do away with private property
i. human nature: what theory is developed, what assumptions are made?
what defines character is the way you produce and provide for your subsistence. the world as we see it is a reflection of our own place within the means of production. The normative shifts in human society are due to the utility of different moral structures for enforcing different means of production and class division. 169 in ebook : "In every epoch the ideas of the ruling class are the ruling ideas, that is, the class that is the ruling material power of society is at the same time its ruling intellectual power. The class having the means of material production also controls, generally speaking, the ideas of those who lack the means of intellectual production."
ii. ethics: how does ethics figure in the argument? is the author engaging in moral condemnation or moral prescription, if so, on the basis of what sort of ethical theory?
The bourgeousie made it so that the only relation between men was self-interest
- family relations became purely monetary relations.
iii. politics: what is politics according to the author? what should the purposes of politics be?
3a. What does the author regard as the distinctive problems and possibilities in the Modern Age
As society has progressed from feudal institutions to market-based production class antagonism has become magnified: two distinct classes, the bourgeoisie and the proletariat, have emerged with much hostility and competing interests. The need for a constantly expanding market drives the bourgeoisie all over the globe, consuming more land for production, and bringing more people under the umbrella of class conflict (159-162). Additionally, the commodification of the labor-power of the proletarian strips them of their ability to have meaningful social and familial relationships, conditioning them toward competition and isolation~an egoistic existence characterized by profit-maximization "training to act as a machine" (172).
3b. How does the author address liberty, equality, and fraternity?
-Liberty - Not chiefly concerned with the enforcement of negative rights, but the positive right to education, and the freedom from want. The means of production have evolved to such a point that the right to subsistence is a given.
how does the author define, conceptualize, and operationalize each concept?
- how does the author prioritize them.
Equality-Calls for Equal liablity of all to labor, free education for all children in public schools. abolition of children's factory labour in its present form. Equality of outcome, in the form of a heavy progressive or graduated income tax that levels income and thereby eliminates the social stratification of modern market-based production
"Wage Labour" The Bourgeoisie is unfit to be the ruling class in society - the modern labourer sinks deeper and deeper below the the conditions of existence.
equality/ fraternity- Wage labour rests on the concept of competition between other labourers. pg. 169.
Fraternity- 166 This organisation of the proletarians into a class, and consequently into a political party, is continually being upset again by the competition between the workers themselves.
160 - "Each new class is, ideally expressed. It has to give its ideas the form of universality and represent them as the only rational, universally valid ones. The class making revolution emerges at the outset simply because it is opposed to a class not as a class but as a representative of the whole of society."
The proletariat's struggle is first and foremost a national one
4 what are the strengths of the author's argument-
yes, he uses inductive reasoning to successfully challenge the "industrious" strain of german philosophical thought that he saw as perverting german idealism into a tool used for affirming the status quo
- any insights, valuable distinctions? good use of evidence?
- are you persuaded?
Examines social institutions without taking any philosophical pretenses for granted.
Bolsters claims about human nature and social institutions with analysis of historical property relationships
5. what are the weaknesses of the author's argument?
Marx's writing prompted the bourgeois to realize the unsustainability of capitalism and prompted the strategy of letting the proletariat blow off steam
Questin: if im marxist, what do i do? minimum wage laws simply keep people at subsistence.
what, if anything, has the author unduly neglected or missed?
-Certain passages seem to be inciting revolution, but Marx's belief that capitalism must take hold across the globe in order for the means of production to support communism are inconsistent with this cry to arms. "Workers of the world, Unite!" is inscribed upon Marx's gravestone, yet at the time that he and Engels coined this now famous phrase the majority of the world was not industrialized to the extent that Marx believed was necessary for communism to be viable.
-Marx never elaborates on the specifics of what a communist society would look like.

Noel's Easy Cranberry Relish
The rest of the family prefers canned, jellied cranberry sauce. And so did I, and I really didn't care for the canned whole-berry relish. That was until I tasted a version of the relish in this recipe. I have to keep myself from spooning it out and eating it up ahead of time.
1 c honey
1 whole orange (peel and all), cut into quarters, seeds removed
1 12-oz. bag fresh cranberries
Put it all in blender in the order listed and pulse till it's ground, but not pureed.
Refrigerate and don't eat it up before Thanksgiving dinner.
That's it!
2 Responses to "Noel's Easy Cranberry Relish"
That sounds so good, Noel. Thank you! And may Thanksgiving at the Pipers be overflowing with blessings in abundance and in gratitude for all Christ has done for us.
Maybe it was my blender…not sure, but this was NOT easy. Everything stuck to the bottom of the blender so I had to take it all out and just do about 1/4 at a time. Maybe it was the honey. I don't know for sure, but one thing I do know…I will never try this again.

Hello friends. How do you guys do coordinate geometry linear equations in two variables so easily? I just never seem to be able to solve a question without going wrong a few times. Please do not tell me to take extra classes . They are costly and I cannot afford them. Any other suggestion would be more than welcome.

You can find numerous links on the internet if you google the keyword coordinate geometry linear equations in two variables. Most of the information is however crafted for the people who already have some knowledge about this subject. If you are a complete beginner , you should use Algebrator. Is it easy to understand and very useful too.

I must agree that Algebrator is a cool thing and the best software of this kind you can get . I was astonished when after weeks of anger I simply typed in adding exponents and that was the end of my difficulties with math. It's also so good that you can use the program for any level: I have been using it for several years now, I used it in College Algebra and in Basic Math too ! Just try it and see it for yourself!

I remember having problems with x-intercept, perpendicular lines and adding functions. Algebrator is a really great piece of math software. I have used it through several algebra classes - Algebra 1, Basic Math and Intermediate algebra. I would simply type in the problem from a workbook and by clicking on Solve, step by step solution would appear. The program is highly recommended.

Teaching Citizens United v. FEC in the Introductory Business Associations Course
Michael D. Guttentag
Loyola Marymount University
May 8, 2013
8 J of Bus. & Tech. Law 163 (2013)
Loyola-LA Legal Studies Paper No. 2013-22
The influence of corporations in the political arena is a timely issue. Funding for political campaigns by corporate entities has increased dramatically in the past ten years, and lobbying continues to be a growth industry. A few firms have recently taken positions on controversial political issues, such as the President of Chick-fil-A sanctioning opposition to same-sex marriage. The 2010 Supreme Court decision in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, holding that many restraints on corporate involvement in contests for federal political office are an unconstitutional infringement on a corporation's constitutional right to free speech, has made it easier for corporations to get involved in the political arena. This Essay offers one perspective on how to bring issues related to the role of the firm in the political arena and, in particular, the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United into the introductory business associations course.

Joel - do you think HH is ending with as3x or just starting? I do understand the differences in the systems, but see a very good chance of some marketing going on. Like not offering all the bells and whistles right out of the box - then you are still holding some cards? The other part for me would be if I'm thinking about trying one, why not think about the rolls royce instead of the chevy? Not sure I want one or not, but as with a lot of things, the only way I will ever know is to get one and try it. No one else will ever be able to tell me if I like it or not, I have to figure that one out for myself. But I now have to figure out if I really want to start with the Chevy. I already have 3 of the chevy's little brothers. And there are for sure things that as3x in the Sbach steps in and makes me look better than I am on.

I think that we have only seen the beginning of what the technology can do. I see applications for scale aircraft that were not practical before, such as the V-22, F-35, and other VTOL designs - along with other inherently unstable scale subjects. The systems are also great for FPV, which is currently the fastest-growing segment of the hobby. A number of companies have been offering various flavors of 'on-board instructors' in their larger entry-level 4-channel planes, which can be turned off once the person has progressed to the point where they don't need the help. I see that expanding as the costs come down even further over the next few years. I think it's a good thing. It used to be that the only way to learn how to fly without crashing a lot was to find an instructor. Many people who tried to learn on their own back in the day got frustrated & quit before they ever made a successful flight, due to the steep learning curve of learning to fly being compounded by having to also learn how to repair. That is a very poor learning environment. The on-board instructor systems give people who don't have access to a human instructor a chance to learn the basics with less fear - and without having to wait for ideal weather. New pilots will still be anxious to turn off the on-board instructor & fly on their own - just like how those of us who learned to fly with a human instructor could hardly wait for our first solo.
Regarding the Rolls vs the Chevy - I will most likely be putting a system in my PA Extra 260 to improve its wind-handling capability. For that plane, I'd like adjustable master gain from the tx, automatic gain-induced oscillation detection with auto gain reduction, and the ability to bypass the system in flight without affecting control-throws. I think I'll be going with the Guardian in the Extra. I will most likely pick up an AR635 to have on-hand for experimentation in other airframes. The thing is - I'm not a rates guy. I prefer to use full throws and dial-in some expo to get the desired response around mid-stick. I was really disappointed to learn about the AR635's fixed rate reduction in general flight mode. I'll use it in something that doesn't have wild throws or a wide speed envelope, so that I can leave it in sport mode & just use one gain setting across the entire speed-range.

I agree that we are just scratching the surface of what technology can do for the hobby.
With RC helicopters it went in stages.
1. Gyro - Standard had to spool up and was rate only effecting just the tail rotor.
Allowed the user to no longer manually adjust the tail rotor when the throttle changed
2 Piezo Gyro- No moving parts rate only on tail rotor.
Same as above
3. Heading Hold Gyro- No moving parts only on tail rotor.
Allows the helicopter to be pointed in a direction by the pilot and that heading would hold no matter if the heli was flying backward or sideways. This type of flying was possible without heading hold but only pro's could do it.
4. 3 Axis Flybarless system- no moving parts, heading hold. Controls all axis.
Allows many more pilots to do 3D more easily then before counter acts wind in all directions.
Having started flying Heli's with out Gyro's and watching it progress to today's standards its amazing.
Yes many said it was like cheating yadda yadda... but it is now main stream and very few helicopters are developed without these systems, more and more competitions allow these systems (XFC) and I do not see them going away.
It still takes a lot of skill to fly a heli and even more to fly a 3D heli but some of the flying would be impossible for 90% of the pilots without these systems.
I feel you will soon see these systems for fixed wing more and more.

I don't know if this helps, Bobly, but there are 4 modes if you set it as per the manual: General at low and high rates and 3D at low and high rates. I still don't have the weather to maiden it but looking at the control throws it should be able to be pretty versatile. General low rate looks like not a lot, especially the elevator. There is plenty of movement in general high rate and I can imagine it is plenty for sport aerobatics. 3D low rate looks similar but the difference is that the Rx is tuned for lower speeds. 3D high rate has huge throws as you would expect. I am expecting to spend half my time in general high rates doing sport aeros and the other half in 3D high rates, desperately trying not to look as incompetent as I am. The only rate that concerns me is general low rate: the throws looks so little that I wonder if it is easy to get intoi a situation you cannot recover from without finding the correct switch!
I made some terribly gash cardboard and bubble wrap wing bags today along with some protectors for the tail end. So, I'm ready for the car trip to the field but the wind gusts are forecast high (30mph+) for many days yet
I prefer to fly balsa at this scale. My interest was in putting the AR635 in my 48" PA Extra, which is a 240W/pound unlimited aerobatic ship. I may not be a big '3D guy', but I still like to throw in a few 3D maneuvers to spice things up. As I mentioned - I want the ability to disable the system from the tx while maintaining 100% throws. I don't want built-in reduced rates in general flight that I can't adjust. I don't like using dual-rates on any of my planes. I prefer to use large throws & tame things down around center with expo - even on my sport planes. I learned a long time ago that I prefer to have full control-authority available at all times - even though I may not use it all that often.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Christian Leadership?
The uniqueness of Christian leadership is that, regardless of where that leadership is exercised – business, government, the church, family, etc. – it has as its foundation a distinctively biblical worldview, and, with that worldview comes an unparalleled role model, Jesus Christ. Christian leadership is characterized by a desire to honor Christ in the leadership process, to keep Him central in every aspect of leading and of the organization being led. It values people as God's image bearers, strives for excellence as a reflection that the organization is working for God, uses God's Word as its primary resource, models a life that integrates faith throughout, and is continually looking for appropriate opportunities to share Christ with those in his/her sphere of influence. (Colossians 3:23-24)
Why is CSU putting such emphasis on Christian leadership?
We live in a world being led by men and women whose preparation for leading and the worldview from which they lead are either devoid of any Christian influence or actually antagonistic to it. Charleston Southern is seeking to be at the leading edge of the movement to provide a steady flow of next generation leaders – whatever their vocational calling might be - who are equipped and committed to learning, leading and serving from a distinctively biblical worldview. At the same time, CSU is uniquely positioned to be a resource for both thought and marketplace/professional leaders whether they be in Charleston, the Southeast or anywhere in the world. We can impact the world today while we send out leaders for tomorrow.
Who is qualified to inform and educate people on this topic? What resources are available?
- CSU's faculty and staff are deeply committed to the university's vision of learning, leading and serving from a biblical worldview and to integrating our faith into all we do – in and out of the classroom. This provides CSU with a team of deeply committed leaders equipped to educate and inform students how to become effective Christian leaders whatever their discipline of study might be.
- The Executive Director of the Whitfield Center for Christian Leadership is a recognized leader and speaker in the global workplace and leadership movement, having effectively led three corporations and three nonprofit ministry organizations while speaking and teaching in more than 20 countries.
- The Whitfield Center provides space and resources for any number of uses and events.
- The Center has relationships with more than 20 Marketplace/Leadership organizations and several university centers.
What is the mission and vision of the Center?
Mission: To equip individuals for leadership and service through the development of a biblical worldview.
Vision: To become a recognized source of leaders for the next generation who live and lead based on a worldview that is thoroughly biblical in content, transformational in nature, universal in scope and applicable in the marketplace.
What impact does the Whitfield Center have on our target groups – faculty/staff, students, leaders outside the university?
- Faculty/staff are affirmed, equipped and confident in their role in developing CSU's students into effective, fruitful Christian leaders when they graduate.
- Students experience intentional Christian leadership development as part of the value of a CSU education. As our program grows and student leaders in the marketplace authenticate the effectiveness of our leadership focus, students will become increasingly valuable when they step into their career callings.
- As we expand our offerings and engage more leaders in Charleston and beyond, marketplace/professional leaders will be affirmed and equipped, and their leadership will begin to change the culture of companies and cities.
What is our strategy?
To equip and encourage our faculty and staff to equip and encourage our students, so that CSU becomes a dependable provider of leaders for the Kingdom of God who
1) KNOW what they believe
2) LIVE what they know
3) STRATEGICALLY APPLY what they know and how they live for the building of God's Kingdom wherever their calling might take them.

I love questions from curious people. I always learn something answering them. Today I got one from that increasingly endangered species, a letter writer. He even enclosed a stamped, self-addressed envelope for my reply!
The writer wanted to know what sort of fish a "jack salmon" is. When I was a kid, that's what we called a walleye. However, an Internet search revealed that this name also is applied to various members of the salmon and cod families. Cod, it turns out, also are called "whitefish." The name "whitefish" is variously applied to whiting, haddock, hake, pollock, sturgeon and ghost sharks, not to mention beluga whales. Don't get me started on all the fish that go by the name "whiting."
This sort of foolishness is why the 18th century scientist Carl von Linne established a formal system to assign one Latin name to each of the world's plants, animals and a surprising number of things that fall somewhere between those two artificially tidy categories. Von Linne, who went so far as to Latinize his own name to "Linnaeus," couldn't stop people from inventing new, creative, confusing names for everything in God's creation. But thanks to him, every plant, animal and plantimal now has an official name that allows us to know what we are talking about, at least within the constraints of our ability to tell them apart.
Humans may be creative in devising new monikers, but nature is endlessly resourceful in producing variations on the theme of protoplasm. That reminds me of a guy who recently told me he believes gray and fox squirrels are crossbreeding to produce a new species. I think I'll call the result the "Silver Fox Squirrel," Bushytailus silverus.

Syo Kurusu (来栖 翔, Kurusu Shou) is a student of Saotome Academy, sorted into S Class. He is a member of ST☆RISH and the twin brother of Kaoru Kurusu. He is voiced by Hiro Shimono (下野 紘, Shimono Hiro).
Syo is a short boy with blond hair that is parted to the right, shaded with pink, and he keeps the bangs out of his eyes with red bobby pins. His eyes are blue, but in the anime, his irises are black. His ears are pierced, and he paints his nails with black nail polish.
He is probably the most uniquely dressed character in the series. This is because he usually wears much different clothing than the normal uniform. He wears a hat most of the time to make himself look taller.
He is described as a "stylish" person, and is also recognized as being very "cute". However he hates it when people call him that.
PersonalityEditSyo has a lot of energy and has an up-beat personality. At times, he can be very hot-headed and a bit defensive, especially when it comes to him being teased about his height. When Syo was a child, he was hospitalized often due to his heart condition and cursed the body he was given. He was told that he would only live to the age of 12. Even though Syo was told this, he stayed lively, and even beat his odds by living longer than his life expectancy and is still living strong. Due to his heart problem, Syo had a great desire to make himself and his body stronger, so he eventually took up karate and is on-par with his idol, Ryuya Hyuga.
HistoryEditIn the game, he actually suffers from a heart condition, to the point that he will collapse if he overexerts himself or if he gets too excited. Because of this condition, his physique is rather weak. After seeing Ryuya Hyuga on TV, he is motivated to become an idol despite his heart condition and highly idolizes the man, who has become his teacher in the S Class. Also, it is revealed that Syo has a younger twin brother, Kaoru. His twin can be very overprotective of him, swearing that he will always be the one to protect and look after him despite being the younger twin. In the game, he stated that their mother is an orchestra conductor who works mostly overseas and their father is a stylist in Shining Agency.
In the anime, Syo is a childhood friend of Natsuki Shinomiya, who caused his phobia of heights by chasing him with a net to the top of a tower, nearly causing him to fall to his death had he not grabbed him. Syo often competed in violin competitions against Natsuki.
he used to live in france with Shinomiya Natsuki.

Haruka NanamiEditSyo first meets Haruka at the cafeteria, catching the lunch card she accidentally dropped. Later they meet up again when Syo falls out of a tree, and angrily tells her not to tell anyone of the incident. It turns out later on that he has acrophobia (Fear of Heights), and with it he cannot audition for the role in the movie with Hyuga-sensei. Haruka and the gang try to help him get over it, but they actually made it worse. It isn't until later that the headmaster interferes and hypnotizes him, that everyone finds out it was because of Natsuki chasing him at age five, up a tower and causing him to fall out of a window, with Natsuki catching him. Syo is the third person who requests Haruka as his partner for the graduation audition. It is shown in the anime he has some romantic feelings for Haruka. In the game, they show him developing feelings for her, as they both admire their role models a lot. In the second season, Syo is closer to Nanami, shown by him giving her one of his favorite DVDs, getting upset about Cecil's romantic advances towards her (along with the others), risked his life to save her from falling, and giving her one of his hats. Also, when Syo saves Nanami from falling, he pulls her into his arms and holds her as she cries due to being scared and tells her he is glad she's alright and wouldn't know what to do if anything had happened to her.
Kaoru KurusuEdit
Kaoru is Syo's younger twin brother who appears only in the games. Kaoru cares a lot about Syo and looks after him due to Syo's heart condition. Kaoru is shown to be very protective of Syo due to his condition and cares about his brother's happiness over his own and decides to stay at Saotome Academy to look after him. It should also be noted that Kaoru is studying to become a doctor, it's possible he's trying to become a doctor in order to find a way to cure Syo's heart condition. In the games, Kaoru is shown to be somewhat possessive of his older twin brother, saying he's the only one capable of making him happy. Syo loves his younger brother immensely, but doesn't like how protective he is of him. Kaoru affectionately calls him "Syo-chan," like how Natsuki does.
Natsuki ShinomiyaEdit
Natsuki is Syo's roommate, and in the anime, childhood friend. Natsuki claims Syo is as cute as Haruka, and though he loves him, Haruka is the one he needs. He enjoys dressing Syo up, petting him, and spending time with him, and for this Syo utterly loathes Natsuki. Natsuki is oblivious of Syo's uttermost hatred for him, but actually Syo genuinely cares for him. In the anime, Natsuki is the reason Syo is afraid of heights, after chasing him up a tower and Syo nearly falling out a window when he was 5.The two have pretty much the same relationship in the second season compared to the first, Natsuki is still fond of glomping Syo and still finds him as cute as ever, much to the latter's dismay, but Syo still cares for him greatly. Natsuki affectionately calls him "Syo-chan," "-chan" being an honorific used to express fondness, closeness, and affection and is more commonly used when addressing girls, but boys can be called it as well, possibly a more "cute" way to address a boy rather than using "-kun".
Ryuya HyugaEdit
Hyuga is Syo's idol. Syo was inspired by Hyuga while watching one of his movies. He is also the teacher of his class.
See here: Kurusu Syo/Gallery.
- In the game, he and Natsuki did not know each other in the past, unlike in the anime.
- Kaoru, his younger twin, is taller than him. Coincidentally, Syo and Kaoru's voice actors are best friends in real life.
- Syo and Natsuki's birthdays are on the same day, June 9.
- The Kurusu twins share the same birthday as the Hitachiin twins from Ouran Highschool Host Club.
- In the anime, he is the one with the acrophobia while in the game it is Ittoki Otoya.
- As a running gag, he is usually forced to crossdress both in the anime and game.
- Syo has been rated the best Otome character in B's Log.
- Syo's star sign is the Gemini, the sign of the twins, coincidentally, he himself is a twin, with the other being Kurusu Kaoru.
- As of the first episode of the second season, Syo is the only character to have his exact height stated in the anime, as stated by Ai, Syo is about 161 cm tall (which is 5 feet 3 inches; Ai also suspects that Syo is actually no more than 160 cm tall or less according to Ai's visual judgement.).
- The average height of males in Japan is 170–172 cm (roughly 5 feet 7 inches to 5 feet 8 inches) Syo is 9-11 centimeters or 4-5 inches under average height.
- He and Natsuki have the greatest difference in terms of height, being 25 cm or nearly an entire foot shorter than Natsuki.
- Syo is seen to be very acrobatic, along with Ittoki Otoya
- Along with being the shortest member of ST☆RISH, Syo is also the youngest member of the original group (Cecil is the youngest of the entire group as he is Otoya's younger half-brother through their mother).
- Due to his heart condition, Syo had been told he would only live until he's 12.
- According to Cecil in episode 2 of the second season, though Syo is small, he's very athletic and his cute looks yet masculine personality is his appeal, but his violent temper causes conflict with others.
- As of the second season, it's been confirmed that Syo has gotten over his fear of heights, as he jumped into a tree chasing after Cecil in episode 2 and willingly jumped a great distance numerous times during a filming session that was incredibly high up and once without a safety cable in episode 3.
- In the All Star Symphony Pack, Syo is stated to be from the Aichi prefecture. He is actually from Nagoya.
- He had good results on Athlete Paradise Sagusa.
- Athlete Paradise Sagusa is a sports-based variety show.
- Recording stresses him out, but it is easier with trusted friends [Ai and Natsuki].
- He has memorized all the lines to the movie, Space Superman Majindaa.
- He hates wasabi.
