North Queensland forward Tariq Sims has called for rugby league's wrestling techniques to be cleaned up, as he prepares to face a South Sydney team whose use of the tactic has generated plenty of controversy.
Seven Souths players have been involved in incidents identified by the NRL judiciary as involving unnecessary pressure in tackles this year.
Manly's Steve Matai and Brisbane's Sam Thaiday have suffered injuries attributed to the Rabbitohs' defensive techniques in successive weeks, with Ben Te'o hit with a four-week ban for his effort on the former Broncos' skipper.
Sims is returning to the Cowboys' starting lineup for Saturday's clash following a one-game suspension of his own for a crusher tackle - but he says wrestling tactics need to be better policed.
"I think I heard Sam Thaiday say a team that doesn't practice wrestling, are liars," said Sims.
"It (wrestling) is a major part of our game now, but it's a part that needs to be cleaned up.
"The NRL are doing their best to police it, but sometimes things happen on the football field that we can't control.
"A lot of people say they could have avoided that tackle if (you did something different) but when you are playing football, it's a fast and furious game.
"It's not where you can just pause it and then slow-mo frame-by-frame what everyone does.
"We've just got to become better at policing that and it's up to us for the duty of care for the players as well.
"They (Souths) have got a big forward pack, For me personally it's an exciting challenge to go up against big fellows like that, because that's where you find out a lot about yourself."
Cowboys forward Gavin Cooper said the Rabbitosh pushed the boundaries with their wrestling techniques.
"They do it well, they do it inside the law," Cooper told AAP.
"They really tinker on it there for a little bit, but that's the way they play.
"A couple of boys like to hold you up and then the third man in tries to get you on the ground and do what they can to push the boundaries and they obviously practice for it.
"But you don't really think about it too much when you're out there on the field, unless you get put in a different position that you're not really used to being in.
"But when you are out on the field, all you are worried about are completing your sets and getting up quick and playing the ball, so you're not too worried about someone flying in, and chopping you around the knees."

MONA was gratified that many of the elements and recommendations of the Institute of Medicine (IOM) Report on the Future of Nursing are reflected in our ongoing work to advance the nursing profession. Implementation of IOM Recommendation 1: Remove scope-of-practice barriers is a current focus for MONA. Advanced practice registered nurses should be able to practice to the full extent of their education and training. Changes to our health care system are needed that capture the full economic value of nurses and take into account the growing body of evidence that links nursing practice to improvements in the safety and quality of care.
Advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) should be called upon to fulfill and expand their potential as primary care providers across practice settings based on their education and competency. By virtue of their regular, close proximity to patients and their scientific understanding of care processes across the continuum of care, nurses have a considerable opportunity to act as full partners with other health professionals and to lead in the improvement and redesign of the health care system and its practice environment.
In some medically underserved areas in Missouri if it weren't for an Advanced Practice Registered Nurse (APRN), the citizens would have no access to healthcare.
The Institute of Medicine (IOM) recommends APRNs practice to the full extent of their education and that state legislatures remove barriers that prevent this. (More info.) The IOM also recommends that the Federal Trade Commission investigate states where regulations are "unduly restrictive."
Missouri currently ranks an "F+" for utilization and restriction of advanced practice nurses. Only six states rank lower. These include Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, and South Carolina. (2011 Pearson Report)
Multiple studies have been done comparing the quality of care given by an advanced practice registered nurse compared to a physician. NO studies have shown advanced practice nurses to be inferior to their physician counterparts. The studies have shown that advanced practice registered nurses are cost effective, deliver quality care, and increase access to healthcare. NO studies have shown that physician supervision of an APRN increases safety.
The Veteran's Administration is the number one employer of APRNs.
Malpractice insurance rates are based upon relative risk and history of claims as a profession. APRNs liability and malpractice insurance rates are significantly less than their physician counterparts. (Journal of Medical Licensure and Discipline - Hooker, Nicholson, & Le)

Birmingham-Southern College students establish
scholarship to honor president
BIRMINGHAM, Ala.-Students at Birmingham-Southern
College have created a new scholarship to provide financial support
to peers who participate in service-learning projects during the
college's January Interim term and to honor the silver anniversary
of the institution's president.
The Neal R. Berte Koinonia Scholarship,
funded by Birmingham-Southern's Student Government Association,
also will support students whose community service extends beyond
the month-long Interim period.
"The annual scholarship will be given
to any student or group of students who organize a project concentrating
on service issues in the global community," said Kim Polkowski,
Birmingham-Southern's SGA president.
The term "Koinonia" is a Greek
word used in the New Testament Bible to describe community. It was
selected in recognition of BSC President and Mrs. Neal Berte's role
on campus during their 25 years of service, fellowship, and community
"The Berte's continued service, excellence,
and concern demonstrate not only their commitment to Birmingham-Southern,
but also to the greater community as a whole," said Polkowski,
a senior English major from Huntsville.
Neal Berte completed his 25th year as president of Birmingham-Southern
in spring 2001.
The first Koinonia Scholarship will be awarded
in January 2002 by a BSC selection committee composed of SGA representatives,
President Berte, and several members of the campus administration.

This tie teeters in the balance, a contest that can still veer in either team's favour when hostilities are resumed in Wales in a fortnight, but it is Crystal Palace who will revel in a slim advantage. A club that had slipped into administration a little under two years ago, their very existence cast into serious doubt, can now dare to dream of Wembley.
This pocket of south London will bask even in a lead this slender. The chorus of delight from retiring home supporters was still echoing around the emptying arena when Dougie Freedman broke away from preaching caution to speak more of pride. "I've been there in the darkest days of administration, as have a few of my guys," he said. "They can't give any more. Their enthusiasm to keep playing for this club, and the tales they tell to the youngsters of the dark days ... it'll make them appreciate this all the more."
Theirs is the lead, chiselled from Cardiff's initial dominance by Anthony Gardner's point-blank header as half‑time approached. Thereafter, the hosts relied upon familiar resilience to see them through. Palace have been stingy to date this term and that, in itself, is cause for confidence. Not since David Hopkin curled a last-minute winner to sink Howard Kendall's Sheffield United and claim the 1997 First Division play-off final have Palace featured at the national stadium. They are unlikely to have a better chance of a return any time soon.
An onslaught awaits in Cardiff in the second leg, the Welsh side clinging to the comfort of their early dominance here and the fact that they have already prevailed 2-0 at home against these opponents in the Championship this term, a margin that would propel them into a meeting with Liverpool or Manchester City. Theirs was a smouldering sense of injustice at the end, Kenny Miller's second-half equaliser having been chalked off for a perceived foul by Joe Mason on Julian Speroni in the home goal.
Malky Mackay, the visitors' impressive manager, described Mike Dean's decision as "a howler" having considered it from various angles on television replays in the aftermath. "The referee made a howler because he's probably thought he made a mistake giving the corner, so he's made amends for that," said Mackay. "Nobody's touched the goalkeeper. Nobody's anywhere near him. It's quite unbelievable, but he's blown with the ball having hardly left the boy's foot for the corner."
Cardiff could also curse profligacy. Palace had heaved to contain them in the early stages, a period when the effects of the flu virus that had so disrupted the home side's preparations seemed most evident. Mackay was having none of that - "I had a cough last weekend, too" - and only Nathaniel Clyne had been ruled out, but a quintet of team-mates played through the paracetamol. The Londoners had initially appeared sapped of energy. City should have taken advantage but, to their cost, Ben Turner nodded over and Miller was first narrowly wide, then denied by Gardner's lunge.
The centre-half, capped by England as a 22-year-old in 2004 when he felt up-and-coming with Tottenham Hotspur, was just as imposing at the other end. Palace had restored some rhythm in the period up to half-time when Darren Ambrose finally found his range to deliver a free-kick with whip and menace. Mile Jedinak beat the Cardiff goalkeeper Tom Heaton to flick on the ball and Gardner eluded Aron Gunnarsson at the far post to head into a gaping net.
The defender ended blooded after an inadvertent clash of heads with his captain, Paddy McCarthy, and will need to be at his sharpest at the Cardiff City stadium to repel these opponents a second time. On another night the deflections to late shots from Joe Ralls and Peter Whittingham might have taken the spiralling ball inside rather than round a post, but this was to be Palace's night. "We'll be stronger in the second leg," insisted Freedman. By then, any lingering effects of the flu should have dissipated.
His own side carry a threat on the counter. In Wilfried Zaha, a player ever eager to bamboozle his marker although just as prone to baffle himself at times, and Sean Scannell they will seek to bite on the break. Freedman, a year into his managerial career with a victory at Manchester United already under his belt, will relish the next challenge ahead, but this tie remains tight. "It's game on," added Mackay. A tense return awaits.

Let the World Burlesque Games begin!
Producer Chaz Royal tells us about this year's edition of Europe's biggest pastie-fest
'We've had to be more strict this year because of the competition - during the review process, if we didn't think each person had a shot at the first-place title, we wouldn't put them through.' No, it's not an Olympic coach discussing selection procedures for London 2012. It's Chaz Royal, creator of London Burlesque Week (LBW), talking about the capital's sixth annual jamboree of tassels, tease and titillation - with the odd twist.
Running from May 7 to 13, this year's LBW event is rebranded as the World Burlesque Games - glancing suggestively at a certain other competitive event scheduled for summer 2012. 'At the end of last year we talked about how to kick things up a stage,' Royal says. 'With the Olympics coming to London, this was the year to do it.' Not that you'll see the O-word on any official WBG material - unsurprisingly, there's no official connection.
Those selection criteria are no joke, however. This year's festival saw a record 400 applicants in the running for 100 spots, equally divided between homegrown and global talent. And the competition isn't just for show, either. With nine events taking place over seven days at four venues, there are eight titles up for grabs: British and international female, male and newcomer awards plus gongs for alternative and variety-oriented performers.
The economic climate has prompted a little tweaking here and there. 'The audience is still there but spending habits are different,' Royal notes. 'A lot of regular cabaret and burlesque-goers are pretty skint these days but we can't just rely on tourists willing to pay high prices. And it's increasingly difficult to compete with the amount of dinner cabarets offering discount offers. That's the challenge, to see what'll work best every year.' Still, advance sales have been robust - at the time of writing, the closing event is already sold out - and you're unlikely to see much scaling back on stage. 'A lot of the international female crowd have extremely opulent, over-the-top showgirl costuming,' says Royal. 'Full-on two-meter headdresses, thousands of Swarovski crystals.'
It's not just about female glamour. Introduced only last year, the boylesque element of the competition looks to be a keeper, splitting into British and international strands. 'Last year's male show probably got the highest energy and the best reception of the week,' Royal says. 'The guys have to really try - it can't rely on being sexy and glamorous, it has to walk the line of comedy and push boundaries as well. It's not just about man-sexiness.' The 'twisted' section of alt and fetish work is also back and this year's WBG sees the introduction of the Triple Crown category for more variety-oriented burlesque, including performers inspired by tango and martial arts.
There's even what you might call an equivalent of the cultural Olympiad: the exhibition 'A Brush with Burlesque' runs on Brick Lane throughout the WBG, offering a selection of new work by artists who take burlesque performers as their subjects. The pieces range from evocative oil paintings and charcoal drawings to comic-book pastiche and expressionistic graphic design. Fans of the scene will recognise a few familiar faces on the walls.
As well as novelty and international acts, WBG offers the chance to see many of London's best performers at work. 'There's nothing else like it in Europe,' Royal insists, 'and the US competitions tend to focus on American performers. This is a showcase for an international audience, not just another gig.'

For Families Like Mine
I voted for Barack Obama in 2008 because I wanted to make sure the person who presided over our country was someone worthy and level-headed. I felt that I identified with his ideas about what life in America should be like, and I thought he would be a wise decision-maker, waiting for all the facts before making choices. I was right on all counts.
But this year, I have different reasons to add to my support for President Obama. As a mother and grandmother, I think not only about my future but the future of my entire family. I've seen the way President Obama's policies have affected the people I care about the most, and he's earned my vote a second time.
Last year, my 19-year-old granddaughter was able to remain on her father's insurance because of the Affordable Care Act – right before she had health issues. Without the provision allowing young Americans to stay on their parents' health insurance until they're 26, she wouldn't have been able to pay for her treatment and it would have put tremendous financial strain not only on her, but on our whole family. Thanks to Obamacare, my granddaughter got the care she needed at an affordable cost.
I also appreciate that President Obama is working to protect Social Security and Medicare, especially since I'm 64 and I'll be collecting social security benefits soon. But what concerns me more is seeing my children, who've been in the workforce for more than 20 years, worry about whether they'll be able to see the fruits of their labor when they retire.
As a middle class American, I think tax equity is important; I want millionaires to pay their share. I've seen President Obama fight for families like mine, so we can provide for future generations. While others have been trying to balance the national budget on the backs of the middle class, he's been working to make life better for all Americans, whether they voted for him or not.
President Obama is about the age of my children. When I see him, I see a young man who I'm very proud of, someone who's a fighter for American families. He never gives up – I won't give up on him.

Catchers to Watch
Catcher is often an after-thought when it comes to fantasy baseball. Here's a few fantasy baseball catchers who you'll want to target in your 2009 fantasy baseball draft.
- Ryan Doumit, Pittsburgh Pirates — Ryan Doumit played just 116 games last year, but managed to hit 15 homers with 69 RBI along with a .316 average. He'll likely be backed up by a rookie, Jason Jaramillo, so Doumit should get most of the playing time.
- Mike Napoli, Los Angeles Angels — Napoli has never got a lot of starts. He played in just 78 games last year, but blasted 20 homers. He hit 10 in 76 games in 2007 and 16 in 99 games in 2006. Napoli hit .453 in September last year. In the past two years, Napoli and Jeff Mathis have each caught 153 games. Napoli is the better hitter, but Mathis the stronger defensive catcher. This may be the year that Napoli's better bat wins the job on a more full-time basis.
- John Baker, Florida Marlins — Baker hit .299 with five homers in 61 games last year in his rookie season. He'll be backed up by Mike Rabelo who hit just .202 last year and has a .234 career batting average.
- Kelly Shoppach, Cleveland Indians — Shoppach replaced Victor Martinez last year and did a great job. The Indians are going to find more time for Shoppach this season while Martinez plays more at first base. Kelly Shoppach was profiled in a previous post by Fantasy Baseball Dugout.
- Matt Wieters, Baltimore Orioles — Gregg Zaun will be 38-years-old in April and has the job of getting Wieters ready as the future Orioles' starting catcher. Wieters was the fifth overall choice in the 2007 amateur draft so you know he can play.

NAIROBI, Kenya -- Sudanese Cardinal Gabriel Zubeir Wako told bishops from East Africa that the Catholic Church will remain united when Southern Sudan becomes independent July 9.
"Politically, the nation will be divided into two -- the old and the new Sudan -- but, religiously, the two Sudans will remain united," said the cardinal from Khartoum, the Sudanese capital.
During the meeting, Bishop Rudolf Deng Majak of Wau, Southern Sudan, told Catholic News Service that he and other bishops were looking forward to the birth of the new nation.
"I never thought that this would happen in our lifetime," he said.
He told CNS the country's liberation war of more than 20 years had resulted in massive killings, suffering and humiliation, but the fruit of the people's labor was about to be seen.
Bishop Deng appealed to the church within and outside Africa to come help the Sudanese.
"We are short of everything ... the church personnel, the clergy, religious men and women and professionally trained lay people. We are equally short of church structures such as churches, schools and hospitals," he said.
Asked what his message would be to his fellow Sudanese as they await for the birth of their new nation, Bishop Deng was quick to say: "Hard work and readiness to reconcile to each other. This would be very central in the building of the new nation."
The two bishops attended the June 27-July 6 plenary of the Association of Member Episcopal Conferences in Eastern Africa, or AMECEA. Members include bishops' conferences from Eritrea, Ethiopia, Malawi, Kenya, Tanzania, Sudan, Uganda and Zambia; Djibouti and Somalia are affiliate members.
In a statement at the end of the meeting, the bishops expressed solidarity with the new Republic of South Sudan, as it will be known, and said it should be a model of tolerance and unity in diversity.
"We pray that all categories of people and groups in the new Republic of South Sudan will lay down arms, embrace peace and work toward nation-building," the bishops said.
They also said they were "saddened by the unending war in Somalia" and prayed for its people and for a peaceful resolution.
They committed themselves to establishing more schools -- primary through university level -- and to providing more chaplains to schools and military institutions.
The bishops also thanked the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops for its "generous initiative and willingness to work with AMECEA in various fields with the view to enhance capacity-building in our institutions." The Africans pledged to make their institutions more transparent and said, "This spirit of brotherhood and solidarity will surely transform our regional, national and diocesan institutions for better."
Patrick Markey, head of the U.S. bishops' office that administers funds for Africa, said that, in addition to the money from the yearly U.S. collection for the continent, his office had received a private donation of $500,000 that would be used to support a pilot program focusing on pastoral educational initiatives in East Africa.

4 Series Coupe and Convertible Spied Testing and Drifting on Ice and Snow
tags:winter testing f32 news f32 forum f30post f30 news f30 forum bmw videos bmw testing bmw spy pictures bmw pictures bmw fourm bmw f32 bmw f30 bmw 4 series news bmw 4 series bmw 2014 4 series coupe 2014 4 series convertible 2014 3 series coupe
BMW is putting the finishing touches on the F32 4 series coupe and F32 convertible before the release in the fall and winter respectively. We spied what looks to be a 428i coupe and perhaps 420i convertible out on the ice testing and later on a 435i on the snow. As any automotive enthusiast would do, the drivers can't help but throw a few drifts and donuts into the mix.
We see both the coupe and convertible sporting traditional exhaust pipes and a front fascia that is toned down from the concept car. More detailed pictures of the production 4 series can also be seen side by side with an Audi A5 coupe here. Not unexpected but I had hoped we would see a different front and rear treatment for the 4 series coupe.
In motion the 4 series has great proportions, it won't be long until we get the complete production car revealed to us.

New York • WellPoint's second-quarter profit fell 8.6 percent as expenses tied to changes in the nation's health care laws climbed.
It still beat Wall Street expectations, and the nation's second-biggest health insurer raised its profit expectations for the year. Its shares fell in morning trading after initially rising.
For the three months ended June 30, WellPoint's net income declined to $731.1 million, or $2.56 per share, from $800.1 million, or $2.64 per share, in the same quarter a year earlier.
Earnings, adjusted for investment gains, came to $2.44 per share. That easily topped the $2.28 that analysts were projecting, according to a poll by Zacks Investment Research.

Pashtuns say they're being brutalized
By Steven Komarow, USA TODAY
CHESHMEH-YE SHIR, Afghanistan From the road, this
hamlet looks wrecked and deserted. Doors and windows have been ripped from the
dried-mud dwellings. There are no sheep or other signs of life.
But as Mohammed Azim, 46, leads the way, heads peer out
from around corners. Soon there's a crowd of men and a handful of women and
children watching from a distance as Azim explains their caution.
These people, many of them his relatives, are in hiding.
"No Pashtun can just journey out of his house," he says.
Human Rights Watch agrees. It says Pashtuns, the dominant
ethnic group in most of Afghanistan except in the north are being
beaten, raped and robbed here by armed gangs of ethnic Tajiks, Uzbeks and Hazaras.
The human rights group, based in New York City, says it has no figure on the
number of victims, but its investigators have collected anecdotal evidence that
indicates dozens of Pashtuns have been killed in the assaults.
The violence has emptied some Pashtun villages in the north,
raising the possibility of an ethnic-cleansing campaign to push them out of
the region.
Pashtuns, distinguished from other Afghans by their turbans,
represent 40% of the Afghan population. The Taliban regime, which imposed
a puritanical form of Islam on the country for five years, was dominated by
Pashtuns. When the Taliban controlled much of Afghanistan, the 1 million Pashtuns
living in the northern reaches of the country, where they are outnumbered by
other ethnic groups, had a measure of protection and privilege. With the Taliban
gone, the northern Pashtuns are isolated, vulnerable and suffering for their
former protected status.
Afghanistan's interim government has set up a commission
to investigate allegations of abuses against Pashtuns. At the same time, there
is evidence Pashtuns may have committed atrocities against other ethnic groups
during the Taliban years. A United Nations team is examining sites near Bamiyan,
an ethnic Hazara area in central Afghanistan where groups of men were buried.
Lakhdar Brahimi, the U.N. special envoy to Afghanistan,
met in March with northern warlords to discuss interethnic conflict. Asked about
human rights abuses, Afghan Foreign Minister Abdullah Abdullah told the United
Arab Emirates publication Gulf News Friday, "Whatever they are, wherever
they are, they must be probed."
Vengeance and politics
There is no evidence of mass, government-sponsored slaughters
like those in the former Yugoslavia in the 1990s. But the accounts of abuses
make efforts to contain the violence all the more critical at a pivotal time
for Afghanistan's reconstruction. The still-weak central government, which is
scheduled to hand power over to a transitional government next month, fears
the lawlessness will drive away international aid and investment.
The initial attacks on Pashtuns began in November, just
as the Taliban lost power, and seemed calculated to exact vengeance for the
past. Today, politics also appears to play a role in the continuing intimidation
part of an effort to curb Pashtun power in the future government. The
outlines of the new governing body will be determined at a national meeting
of elders, a loya jirga, held in Kabul next month.
Isolated in their hamlets, surrounded by hostile neighbors,
the northern Pashtuns say they are terrorized every day. The raiders usually
come in the morning, Azim says. Typically, about 50 men with assault rifles
and rocket-propelled grenades arrive in trucks. They take food, livestock and
anything else they want from the 50 families in this village.
The villagers flee to the fields and gullies nearby while
their homes are looted. Anyone who stays behind risks death. Ghausuddin, 27,
who goes by one name, pulls up a pant leg and a shirt sleeve to show gunshot
wounds he blames on the raiders. He says he was shot when he refused to give
the raiders information about other villagers. By now, almost nothing is left
in Cheshmeh-ye Shir. So there is a growing suspicion that what started as simple
revenge and greed has grown into a calculated campaign to deny the Pashtuns
a full voice when Afghanistan's new government is chosen.
Local meetings to choose regional representatives for the
national council meeting in Kabul are underway. Assaults against Pashtuns could
corrupt the process, says Peter Bouckaert, a Human Rights Watch researcher.
"If northern Pashtuns are unable to take part in district or regional meetings
to choose their representatives, then the validity of the entire loya jirga
process will be called into question," he says.
No security guarantees
There are some signs that the rash of interethnic violence
that followed the fall of the Taliban may be receding. Rashid Dostum, an ethnic
Uzbek, deputy defense minister and one of the best known of northern Afghanistan's
warlords, has promised to keep his troops in control and says he has dismissed
several abusive commanders. He also announced a truce with a rival Tajik commander
that would demilitarize Mazar-e-Sharif, a northern city where many Pashtuns
But others allied with the Northern Alliance, the coalition
that fought with the United States against the Taliban, say they fear Pashtuns
could dominate the new government the loya jirga is supposed to create.
It's an outcome unacceptable to many Uzbeks, Hazaras and Tajiks who fought to
drive out the Taliban.
Burhanuddin Rabbani, an ethnic Tajik who was part of the
Northern Alliance and president of Afghanistan before the Taliban took power,
accuses the international community of trying to deny his fighters the
legendary mujahedin who drove the Soviets out in 1989 the political power
they deserve. The national council meeting will be "a sham," he says, designed
to empower "outsiders" now ruling the country.
Hamid Karzai, the interim Afghan leader chosen in December
at a conference in Germany, is an ethnic Pashtun. The top ministers in his government
are ethnic Tajiks. But the government has fewer than 600 soldiers, fewer than
many regional warlords. So Karzai's power does not extend far beyond the capital's
Life for Pashtuns in areas where they are a minority and
don't have the protection of the federal government has been rough, says a 38-year-old
shopkeeper from a village in Chimtal district just outside Mazar-e-Sharif, a
city near Afghanistan's border with Uzbekistan. "There were no Taliban in our
village," says the man, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "But our houses
were looted and 15 to 20 villagers killed" by soldiers from the Northern Alliance.
At first, the village was abandoned. Fearful residents
stayed with relatives or at U.N. refugee camps. Some are moving back. But if
there's more intimidation, they may leave permanently, the shopkeeper says.
He says the only solution is to bring an international
military force to the region like the one patrolling in Kabul. But Western nations
don't want to pay for an expansion of the force. And there is concern that they,
like other international forces deployed here over the centuries, eventually
will be seen as invaders and attacked. Already, the Kabul patrols have been
subjected to sniper fire and rocket attacks.
Creation of a multiethnic Afghan army that could keep security
around the country has just started. It's expected to take several years to
develop a force able to challenge local thugs, not to mention powerful warlords.
"You can tell that the situation is not good," the shopkeeper
says. "There is going to be no peace if there are going to be no peacekeepers."

Students may complete a major or minor in Philosophy.
Robert J. Dostal, Professor (on leave semester II)
Christine M. Koggel, Professor, Chair and Major Adviser (on leave semester I)
Michael Krausz, Professor and Acting Chair, semester I
Adriel Trott, Instructor
Morgan Wallhagen, Lecturer
George E. Weaver Jr., Professor
The Department of Philosophy introduces students to some of the most compelling answers to questions of human existence and knowledge. It also grooms students for a variety of fields that require analysis, conceptual precision, argumentative skill and clarity of thought and expression. These include administration, the arts, business, computer science, health professions, law and social services. The major in philosophy also prepares students for graduate-level study leading to careers in teaching and research in the discipline.
The curriculum focuses on three major areas: the systematic areas of philosophy, such as logic, theory of knowledge, metaphysics, ethics and aesthetics; the history of philosophy through the study of key philosophers and philosophical periods; and the philosophical explication of methods in such domains as art, history, religion and science.
The department is a member of the Greater Philadelphia Philosophy Consortium comprising 13 member institutions in the Delaware Valley. It sponsors conferences on various topics in philosophy and an annual undergraduate student philosophy conference.
Major Requirements
Students majoring in philosophy must take a minimum of 10 semester courses and attend the monthly noncredit departmental colloquia. The following five courses are required for the major: the two-semester Historical Introduction (PHIL 101 and 201); Ethics (PHIL 221); Theory of Knowledge (PHIL 211), Metaphysics (PHIL 212) or Logic (PHIL 103); and Senior Conference (PHIL 399). At least three other courses at the 300 level are required. Majors must take one historical course that concentrates on the work of a single philosopher or a period in philosophy.
Philosophy majors are encouraged to supplement their philosophical interests by taking advantage of courses offered in related areas, such as anthropology, history, history of art, languages, literature, mathematics, political science, psychology and sociology.
Honors will be awarded by the department based on the senior thesis and other work completed in the department. The Milton C. Nahm Prize in Philosophy is a cash award presented to the graduating senior major whose senior thesis the department judges to be of outstanding caliber. This prize need not be granted every year.
Minor Requirements
Students may minor in philosophy by taking six courses in the discipline at any level. They must also attend the monthly noncredit departmental colloquia.
Students may take advantage of cross-registration arrangements with Haverford College, Swarthmore College and the University of Pennsylvania. Courses at these institutions may satisfy Bryn Mawr requirements, but students should check with the chair of the department to make sure specific courses meet requirements.
No introductory-level course carries a prerequisite. However, most courses at both the intermediate and advanced levels carry prerequisites. Unless stated otherwise in the course description, any introductory course satisfies the prerequisite for an intermediate-level course, and any intermediate course satisfies the prerequisite for an advanced-level course.
PHIL B101 Historical Introduction to Philosophy: Ancient Philosophy
What is the fundamental nature of the world? Can we have knowledge about the world and ourselves, and if so, how? What is the good life? In this course, we explore answers to these sorts of metaphysical, epistemological and ethical questions by examining the works of the Pre-Socratics and of the two central Greek philosophers, Plato and Aristotle. (Dostal, Trott, Division III)
PHIL B102 Introduction to Problems in Philosophy
Contemporary formulations of certain philosophical problems are examined, such as the nature of knowledge, persons, freedom and determinism, the grounds of rationality, cognitive and moral relativism, and creativity in both science and art. (Wallhagen, Division III)
PHIL B103 Introduction to Logic
Training in reading and writing proof discourses (i.e., those segments of writing or speech that express deductive reasoning) to gain insight into the nature of logic, the relationship between logic and linguistics, and the place of logic in theory of knowledge. (Weaver)
PHIL B201 Historical Introduction to Philosophy: Modern Philosophy
The development of philosophic thought from Descartes to Nietzsche. (Trott, Wallhagen, Division III)
PHIL B202 Culture and Interpretation
A study of methodological and philosophical issues associated with interpreting alternative cultures, including whether ethnocentrism is inevitable, whether alternative cultures are found or imputed, whether interpretation is invariably circular or relativistic, and what counts as a good reason for one cultural interpretation over another. (Krausz, Division III; cross-listed as COML B202) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B204 Readings in German Intellectual History
(Seyhan, Division III; cross-listed as GERM B212) Not offered in 2006-07.

PHIL B210 Philosophy of Social Science: Philosophy of Psychology
Prerequisite: ANTH 102 or another introductory course in the social sciences or philosophy, or permission of instructor. (staff, Division I or III; cross-listed as ANTH B201) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B211 Theory of Knowledge: Relativism and Realism
What sorts of things are there and what constraints are there in knowing them? Have we access to things as such or are they inevitably filtered through some conceptual scheme? This course will examine the debate between relativism and absolutism in relation to the debate between realism and antirealism. The course will seek to instill philosophical skills in the critical evaluation of pertinent theories. Readings will include works of Nelson Goodman, Chhanda Gupta, Karl Popper, Hilary Putnam, Israel Scheffler and others. (Krausz, Division III)
PHIL B212 Metaphysics
An examination of the issues that arise when we try to discern the fundamental nature of the world. What does it mean to say that something is real, objective, mind-independent or true? How do we go about deciding whether the world includes values, God, mind, numbers? Is there a reason to regard science's description of the world as depicting the world as it really is? (Wallhagen, Division III)
PHIL B213 Introduction to Mathematical Logic
Equational logics and the equational theories of algebra are used as an introduction to mathematical logic. While the basics of the grammar and deductive systems of these logics are covered, the primary focus is their semantics or model theory. Particular attention is given to those ideas and results that anticipate developments in classical first-order model theory. Prerequisites: PHIL 103 and MATH 231. (Weaver, Division II; cross-listed as GNST B213)
PHIL B214 Modal Logic
This course examines the Kripke "possible world" semantics for a family of logics whose logical vocabulary contains 'necessity' and 'possibility'. Primary emphasis is given to sentential logics and the modal extensions. Techniques are developed for establishing completeness, compactness and interpolation results. Time permitting, both quantified modal logics and temporal logics will also be considered. Prerequisite: PHIL B103 or equivalent. (Weaver, Division II) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B221 Ethics
How should we live our lives and interact with others? This course explores answers to this question in the context of the global community in which we now live. It introduces students to ethics by way of an examination of moral theories (such as theories of justice and human rights, utilitarianism, Kant's categorical imperative, relativism and care ethics) and of practical issues (such as abortion, euthanasia, pornography and censorship, animal rights and the environment, and equity). (Koggel, Division III)
PHIL B222 Aesthetics: Nature and Experience of Art
What sorts of things are works of art, music and literature? Can criticism in the arts be objective? Do such works answer to more than one admissible interpretation? If so, what is to prevent one from sliding into an interpretive anarchism? What is the role of a creator's intentions in fixing upon admissible interpretations? What is the nature of aesthetic experience? Readings will be drawn from contemporary sources from the analytic and continental traditions. (Krausz, Division III; cross-listed as COML B222)
PHIL B226 Introduction to Confucianism
(Kim, Division III; cross-listed as EAST B226 and POLS B226) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B228 Introduction to Political Philosophy: Ancient and Early Modern
(Salkever, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B228)
PHIL B229 Concepts of the Self
In this course, we will discuss several related philosophical questions about the nature of the self, introspection, self-knowledge and personal identity. What kind of thing is the self? Is the self identical with your body or something distinct from it? What is introspection? What are you conscious of when you are self-conscious? How does knowledge of your own thoughts, sensations and desires differ from other kinds of knowledge? What kinds of changes can you undergo and still remain the same person you were before? We will address these issues by reading work from both historical and contemporary sources. (Wallhagen, Division III)
PHIL B230 Discrete Mathematics
An introduction to discrete mathematics with strong applications to computer science. Topics include set theory, functions and relations, propositional logic, proof techniques, recursion, counting techniques, difference equations, graphs and trees. (Weaver, Division II and Quantitative Skills; cross-listed as CMSC B231 and MATH B231)
PHIL B231 Introduction to Political Philosophy: Modern
(Salkever, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B231)
PHIL B236 Plato: Early and Middle Dialogues
Plato is sometimes accused of being out of touch with the real world, of radically changing his mind in his later years, of keeping his "secret" philosophy hidden, and even of writing not philosophy so much as dramatic fiction. Carefully reading representative later and earlier work, we will try to see how far such claims might or might not be justified. (Dostal, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B238 Science, Technology and the Good Life
This course considers questions concerning what is science, what is technology and what is their relationship to each other and to the domains of ethics and politics. We will consider how modern science defined itself in its opposition to Aristotelian science. We will examine the Cartesian and Baconian scientific models and the self-understanding of these models with regard to ethics and politics. Developments in the philosophy of science will be considered, e.g., positivism, phenomenology, feminism, sociology of science. Biotechnology and information technology illustrate fundamental questions. The "science wars" of the 1990s provide debates concerning science, technology and the good life. (Dostal, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B238) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B243 Twentieth-Century Continental Philosophy
Surveys 20th-century continental philosophy: phenomenology, existentialism, hermeneutics, Marxism and the Frankfurt school, structuralism and post-structuralism and deconstruction. Themes include meaning and truth, the basis for ethics and politics, embodiment, language, the "other" and feminism. Philosophers discussed include Derrida, Foucault, Gadamer, Habermas, Heidegger, Husserl, Merleau-Ponty and Sartre. Prerequisites: PHIL B101 and PHIL B201. (Dostal, Division III)
PHIL B244 Philosophy and Cognitive Science
Cognitive science is a multi-disciplinary approach to the study of human cognition. It goes from the abstract study of concepts of cognition at one end to well-defined empirical research into language and cognition and the specifics of cognitive modeling on computers at the other. Philosophy, linguistics, psychology, computer science and neuroscience are the major contributors to cognitive science. (Wallhagen, Division III)
PHIL B246 Philosophical Skepticism
This course will examine philosophical arguments that purport to show that we cannot know the things we take ourselves to know. We will focus on the problem of induction, external world skepticism, the problem of other minds and self-knowledge. (staff, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B250 Topics in Chinese Cultural History: Introduction to Chinese Philosophy
(Kim, Division III; cross-listed as EAST B210 )
PHIL B252 Feminist Theory
(Barker, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B253) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B300 Nietzsche, Kant, Plato: Modes of Practical Philosophy
(Salkever; cross-listed as POLS B300) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B301 Hume
A close examination of Hume's philosophy, focusing on his psychology and its implications on his epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind and ethics. His views on causation, substance, personal identity, induction, practical reasoning, free will and the basis of moral judgements are considered in detail. How Hume is related to other British and continental philosophers, and the significance of his views for Kant as well as for a number of philosophical debates, are also examined. (staff, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07 .
PHIL B303 Advanced Mathematical Logic
This course develops various advanced topics in the branch of mathematical logic called model theory. Topics include homogeneous models, universal models, saturated and special models, back-and-forth constructions, ultraproducts, the compactness and Lowenheim-Skolem theorems, submodel complete theories, model complete theories, and omega-categorical theories. Prerequisite: PHIL 213 or Haverford's MATH 237. (Weaver; cross-listed as GNST B303) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B310 Philosophy of Science
An examination of positivistic science and its critics. Topics include the possibility and nature of scientific progress from relativistic perspectives. (Grobstein, Krausz, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B314 Existentialism
In this course we will examine the critique of the modern subject as presented by existentialism through the themes of freedom, anxiety, consciousness, selfhood and death. While the existentialists boldy embrace freedom, they do not deny the limitations to that freedom that the world presents. The course will be divided into four sections, each dedicated to one of the following thinkers: Heidegger, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche and Sartre. (Trott, Division III)
PHIL B316 History and Philosophy of Mathematics
Epistemological problems, particularly in reference to mathematical realism, are examined and various solutions are discussed, with emphasis on "structuralist" solutions arising out of modern abstract algebra. Prerequisite: PHIL 103 or 214. (Weaver)
PHIL B318 Philosophy of Language
Mathematically precise results in linguistics, computer science and logic presuppose the theory of strings. This theory has two formulations: (1) the theory of string systems; and (2) the theory of generalized arithmetics. These formulations are equivalent and within the theory of string systems three different models for linguistic description are developed: algebraic, automata theoretic and formal grammar. As an example we take distributional structure and define regular sets. We then show that these regular sets are the class of languages generated by left linear grammars and that this class is those languages accepted by finite state automata. Prerequisite: PHIL 103. (Weaver, Division III)
PHIL B319 Philosophy of Mind
In this course we will examine some of the core philosophical problems about the mind. Among the questions we will address are: What is the relationship between mind and body? What makes a particular state of a creature a mental state? Are minds a kind of computer? How do mental states manage to represent, or be about, other states of affairs? How can we account for various features of sensation and perception? What are thoughts, and do any non-human animals have them? What is consciousness, and does it show that there is something non-physical, or immaterial, about the mind? (Wallhagen, Division III)
PHIL B321 Greek Political Philosophy: Aristotle: Ethics and Politics
(Salkever, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B320)
PHIL B323 Culture and Interpretation
This course will pursue such questions as the following. For all objects of interpretation, must there be a single right interpretation? If not, what is to prevent one from sliding into an interpretive anarchism? Does interpretation affect the nature or the number of an object of interpretation? Does the singularity or multiplicity of interpretations mandate either realism or constructivism or any other ontology? Discussions will be based on contemporary readings. (Krausz, Division III; cross-listed as COML B323) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B325 Philosophy of Classical Music
This course will consider philosophical issues pertaining to the ontology of works of music, meaning and understanding of music, emotions and expressiveness of music, music and intentionality, scores in relation to performances, the idea of rightness of interpretation, music and morality, and music in relation to other arts and practices. Examples of works will be provided in class. Prerequisite: a 200-level philosophy course or a course in music, music theory or criticism, or permission of instructor. (Krausz, Division III)
PHIL B326 Relativism: Cognitive and Moral
Cognitive relativists believe that truth is relative to particular cultures or conceptual schemes. In an analogous way, moral relativists believe that moral rightness is relative to particular cultures or conceptual schemes. Relativistic theories of truth and morality are widely embraced in the current intellectual climate, and they are as perplexing as they are provocative. This course will examine varieties of relativism and their absolutistic counterparts. Readings will be drawn from contemporary sources. (Krausz, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B327 Political Philosophy in the 20th Century
(Salkever; cross-listed as POLS B327) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B329 Wittgenstein
Wittgenstein is notable for developing two philosophical systems. In the first, he attempted to show there is a single common structure underlying all language, thought and being, and that the job of philosophy was to make it clear. In the second, he denied the idea of such a structure was even coherent, and claimed that the job of philosophy was to free philosophers from bewitchments due to misunderstandings of ordinary concepts in language. The course begins by examining the first system in the Tractatus-Logico-Philosophicus and turns to his rejection of his earlier ideas in Philosophical Investigations and in On Certainty . (Koggel, Division III; cross-listed as GERM B329) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B330 Kant
The significance of Kant's transcendental philosophy for thought in the 19th and 20th centuries cannot be overstated. His work is profoundly important for both the analytical and the so-called "continental" schools of thought. This course will provide a close study of Kant's breakthrough work: The Critique of Pure Reason . We will read and discuss the text with reference to its historical context (Descartes, Hume, Leibniz, Locke, etc.) and with respect to its impact on developments in epistemology, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, philosophy of religion as well as developments in German Idealism and 20th century phenomenology (Heidegger and Husserl). (Dostal, Division III)
PHIL B336 Plato: Later Dialogues
An examination of several so-called "late" dialogues, primarily Philebus, Sophist, Statesman and Theaetetus. Special attention is given to the literary character of the dialogues, with thematic focus on dialectic and dialogic inquiry, Aristotelian modes of explanation and the Platonic images of the philosopher and the political leader. Fundamental ontological, epistemological and political questions are considered in these dialogues. (Dostal, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B336) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B338 Phenomenology
This upper-level seminar will consider the two main proponents of phenomenology - a movement in philosophy in the 20th century that attempted to restart philosophy in a radical way. Its concerns are philosophically comprehensive: ontology, epistemology, philosophy of science, ethics and so on. Phenomenology provides the important background for other later developments in 20th-century philosophy and beyond: existentialism, deconstruction, post-modernism. This seminar will focus primarily on Edmund Husserl's Crisis of the European Sciences and Martin Heidegger's Being and Time . Other writings to be considered include some of Heidegger's later work and Merleau-Ponty's preface to his Phenomenology of Perception . (Dostal, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B344 Development Ethics
This course explores the questions and moral issues raised by development in the context of globalization. Questions to be considered include: In what direction and by what means should a society develop? What are the obligations, if any, of rich countries to poor countries? What role, if any, should rich countries, international institutions and nongovernmental organizations have in the development or self-development of poor countries? To what extent, if any, do moral relativism, national sovereignty and universalism pose a challenge to cross-cultural ethical inquiry about theories of human flourishing, human rights and justice? (Koggel, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B344)
PHIL B347 Philosophy of Perception
A discussion of several issues in the philosophy of perception. What exactly do we perceive? What is the role of concepts in our experience? What is the relation between perceptual experience and empirical judgment? Does our capacity to think depend on our ability to perceive? (staff, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B361 Interpretation Theory: Gadamer
This upper-level seminar focuses on a major work of contempoary philosophy, Hans-Georg Gadamer's Truth and Method , which provides a comprehensive theory of interpretation. Gadamer argues that all experience and understanding is interpretive. The seminar will consider both the background for and the reception of this work through selections from, among others, Aristotle, Derrida, Dilthey, Habermas, Heidegger, Kant, Plato and Strauss. (Dostal, Division III) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B364 Political Philosophy: Irony and Inquiry
(Elkins, Salkever; cross-listed as COML B364 and POLS B364)
PHIL B367 Hegel's Philosophy of Right
Hegel's Philosophy of Right, his major work of legal and political philosophy, is an account of the ethical basis of the state and of the relationship of politics, law and morality. In this course, we will engage in a close reading of the full text of the Philosophy of Right and consider several supplementary texts, including Marx's Critique of the Philosophy of Right. (Elkins, Division III; cross-listed as POLS B367) Not offered in 2006-07.
PHIL B368 The Enlightenment and Its Critics

For those knowledgeable on the subject, the long since discontinued MN3007 IC's result in a much nicer sound than it's little brother, the MN3207. The MN3007 are coveted by pedal builders and the D.I.Y. community for their superior sound quality. Often counterfeited, these ICs are tricky to purchase. Early in the year 2009 Malekko acquired a giant lot of actual obsolete MN3007 BBD ICs and went to work. The result is a superior lush analog chorus pedal in an unprecedented tiny enclosure...all at an affordable price.
This transparent true bypass pedal does not add unwanted frequency, like some chorus pedals are known to do. Small and simple to use, our chorus has two control pots: speed and depth. From subtle warble to super lush seasickness, this chorus sounds fantastic! Although this chorus pedal will operate with a 9VDC regulated neg tip power supply (not included), it will sound fuller, richer, and have more headroom with a 12VDC regulated neg tip power supply (not included).

Go to Settings>Advanced Options. In the Standard Attributes section there is a line for Ticket Categories, with the type of enumeration.
In the Default Value field type the categories you want to use as comma separated values. So if I want categories for Software, Hardware, Network, Combination I would type ,Software,Hardware,Network,Combination in the Default Value field.
If you'd like to create sub-categories as another line item, you can do that in the Custom Attributes section.
Aug 27, 2013 at 12:41 UTC
Note that all plugins will not work on the new helpdesk page being released with Spiceworks 7.0.
There will be a new plugin API released in the future.

Small hint - if you look at the latest Citrix GoToAssist plugin, it's working with the new help desk (and the old one at the same time). We just don't have anything officially documented. My goal in the next month or so is to simplify it to just the essentials and comment the code. It will at least show you how to plug things in.

I know this was posted a while ago BUT whoever else looks here make sure you stop network scanning in Spiceworks, Settings, network scan or else the standard and custom attributes fields will not show up for editing. Stumped me for a bit until I learned how to read. :)

Professional Testimonial: Jenny Anderson - Infant/Toddler Teacher
Hi Mike,
By the list of the testimonials on the web site, I would say business is doing well. Let me offer another one:
I can tell you that the staff have been very satisfied with the blanket. In fact, I had a new teacher who wasn't around when I first got the blankets and the other teachers forgot where they came from and she was asking about them. She was so excited that an 8 month baby who had never been able to sleep in a crib before is now doing so with the blanket. Before she started at our program, she was sleeping in her car seat, which is not safe. A mother of another infant was also excited that her baby was able to sleep so soundly with all the noise that an infant room in a day care center can make. The vote is out and everyone is very satisfied.
I would also like to thank you for your generosity in providing us with these blankets. They are holding up well with multiple washings. I only put out a few in the classrooms at a time and I have yet to replace those first few blankets. I can tell you that I am looking at having a baby sometime soon in the future and I will definitely be looking you up for blankets when the time comes. And it makes the best baby shower gift!

Why Swaddle Your Baby?
- Every parent is taught to swaddle...
- Research shows the benefits of swaddling...
- Swaddled babies sleep better and longer...
- Trusted books extol the virtues of swaddling...
- Swaddling helps fussy babies sleep better...
- Swaddling helps your baby sleep on their back...
So why isn't everyone swaddling their babies?
Our survey shows that 98% of parents who want to swaddle don't for one of these 3 reasons:
- It's too difficult to keep the baby swaddled for more than a few minutes;
- Our baby grew too big for the receiving blankets - within a couple weeks!
- Our baby slept through the night from day one, and is happy all the time.
If you fall into category #3 ... CONGRATULATIONS!
For the rest of us, there is a wonderful new solution to an age-old problem:

St. Francis Brooklyn defeats Sacred Heart 92-80
NEW YORK -- Ben Mockford scored 22 points and St. Francis Brooklyn defeated Sacred Heart 92-80 Saturday in a showdown for the eighth and final Northeast Conference tournament berth.
Mockford made 6 of 11 from 3-point range as the Terriers (12-17, 8-10) made 12 of 27 (44.4 percent). The Pioneers (9-20, 7-11), who lost their seventh straight, were 4 of 18 (22.2 percent) on 3s.
St. Francis, which will play at Robert Morris in the tournament on Wednesday, used an 18-3 run midway through the first half for a 34-21 lead. It started the second half with an 8-2 run for a 53-38 advantage and led by double figures for all but 34 seconds after that.
Jalen Cannon and Akeem Johnson added 15 points each for the Terriers.
Shane Gibson scored 29 points and Louis Montes 20 for Sacred Heart (9-20, 7-11). Gibson is eighth on the Pioneers' career list with 2,079 points.
