"content": "And I have it easy. My tastes are established and the music I mostly like is now a very small niche in the overall music market today (though I try to stay somewhat current in a few other niches). Yet I still can’t keep up. If I we younger and trying to listen to all the new hip-hop and EDM coming out, it would be a full time job. And for a lot of young people today, facing the gig economy, not to mention all the aspiring DJs, it might just be."

I’ve settled on my musical tastes, and the few genres of music I like are now a relatively small niche in the overall music market (I follow a few other niche genres, but relatively speaking, not too many). And I still can’t keep up. I’d imagine that if I were younger and trying to listen to everything coming out in hip-hop and EDM, it would amount to a full time job. And for many younger people, facing the gig economy and wanting to be DJs, it may well be."

"content": "One way to accomplish this is what Silver and other synthetic biologists call “plug and play” — the creation of basic biological components for research and for developing treatments and preventatives like vaccines that have been synthesized in a lab, ready to be deployed, say, when the next virus arrives. “I’m thinking that as we learn how to manipulate viruses and create methods for booting up responses faster it becomes a kind of plug-and-play system that is nimble,” said Silver, “and this goes not just for vaccines. It goes for everything, anything. You have a new disease, or any kind of therapeutic, and you’re better prepared.”"

"content": "The biggest predicament with this proposal is the funding. America is a wealthy, capitalist country with a budget of trillions of dollars. Of course, even then every single corporation won’t receive the millions of dollars necessary to follow this plan. However, pressure would be applied for each corporation to receive some extent of funding while they are required to pay for the rest. It is certainly an investment, but these corporations are among the wealthiest in the entire world and can certainly afford it. Furthermore, it is certainly a price to pay for the billions of lives that are estimated to be saved if there is a decrease in the presence of greenhouse gases."

Dear, a word normally so fraught with emotion that in spoken language we wouldn’t use it to address anyone who isn’t our significant other, if at all, and rarely put it in front of any noun that isn’t life, God, or Watson (the holy trifecta)?

"content": "Thirty-five seconds from start to finish. That's how long it took disassembly line workers in an early pork slaughterhouse to take a pig to pieces. With a few well-practiced hacks of a cleaver, they divided a whole animal into a neat set of uniform cuts of meat, sending each bit where it would produce the most profit in an anonymous market. It took longer than 35 seconds, but early agribusinessmen and entrepreneurs in the 18th and 19th centuries systematicaflly dismembered the American landscape in a similar way, turning a continent of rich ecological diversity into a factory for uniform production of a few generic crops. In the quest for wealth in North America, uniform production was the means, efficiency was the outcome, and the resulting uniformity in methods remains embedded in the destructive agricultural practices we use today."

"content": "Thirty-five seconds from start to finish. That is how long it took to dismember a pig in an early pork slaughterhouse. In that time, a worker, an artist with a cleaver, reduced a whole animal to a neat set of uniform cuts of meat, each bound for the place it would bring the greatest profit in an anonymous market. Though it took mere seconds, this process parallels the minutes, hours, days, and years of systematic deconstruction agribusiness leaders and entrepreneurs undertook in the 18th and 19th centuries. They took the richly varied American landscape and reduced it to a factory system for the uniform, mass production of a few crops. In the quest for wealth in North America, uniformity of production was the means, efficiency was the end, and the resulting uniformity of methods in agriculture has led to the destructive practices we see today."

"content": "One landmark case that was pro same-sex marriage was Goodridge v Department of Public Health in Massachusetts. Goodridge, argued just months after the Lawrence decision, finally followed Kennedy's intent. The Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled that the federal government left the question of whether homosexual couples could marry or not up to the states. And Massachusetts, somewhat mocking the Supreme Court, says the Massachusetts Constitution is, if anything, more protective of individual liberty and equality than the Federal Constitution; it may demand broader protection for fundamental rights; and it is less tolerant of government intrusion into the protected spheres of private life. The Massachusetts Supreme Court interpreted Lawrence as an opinion which left the question of same-sex marriage open for the states to decide in favor of, as long as the states respected homosexual couples. Massachusetts granted the ability to marry to homosexual couples because it inferred that being in a homosexual relationship was a fundamental right which the state must protect."

Goodridge was argued a few months after Lawrence was decided. Goodridge followed Kennedy's intent, as Massachusetts Supreme Court ruled that the federal government left the question of same-sex marriage to the states to decide. Massachusetts was somewhat provocative, if not a little bit challenging to the Supreme Court when it wrote, the Massachusetts Constitution … is, if anything, more protective of individual liberty and equality than the Federal Constitution; it may demand broader protection for fundamental rights; and it is less tolerant of government intrusion into the protected spheres of private life. The Massachusetts Supreme Court considered Lawrence to have left the decision of same-sex marriage to the states as long as they also acknowledged the rights of homosexual couples. Massachusetts granted same-sex marriages and ultimately concluded that being in a homosexual relationship was a fundamental right that the state must protect."

"content": "Now, don’t feel sorry for my dad — my brother is an all-star everything, so he got pretty lucky. But he believed in me and wanted to participate in sports with me as a bonding activity. He gave me countless golfing lessons and we played in his club’s Father-Daughter tournament. This may sound pretty unremarkable, but here’s the really special part. I can remember zero times when my dad got frustrated with my lack of skills. Zero. I could never drive the ball farther than 120 yards and by the time we made it to the 8th green, I was often on the verge of tears. I tried to give up so many times out of frustration and shame. How could this man’s daughter (my dad won most of the tournaments he played in) be so terrible at this sport? His buddies had daughters who rivaled him off the tee…and then there was me."

"content": "For T.C. Cannon, being a Native American veteran came with its own set of contradictions. The patterns of colonialism, violence, and subjugation used by the U.S. in Southeast Asia were starkly similar to those used against his own community. Perhaps this became one more reason to make art about the war, to remind others what we ought not repeat. As he wrote in the final lines of his poem Hearts and Minds, “God forgive the fools of france and america./ never let them forget the folly/ of what was done and those that did it.”"

"content": "Moll, in Defoe's Moll Flanders, is a female character who, curiously, seems to lack maternal instinct, who abandons her children time and time again and shies away from ever creating or being a part of a traditional family unit. The traditional female roles of belonging to the private sphere, of maintaining the home and staying out of public affairs is still a standard in the early 18th century. But Moll entirely defies this convention; her wishes are externalized, her personal will made known from the first few pages of the novel. Her methods of obtaining money force her out into the world. She is constantly interacting with others, practicing a sort of employment that, though illegal, resembles a trade. Her thievery gives her a reliable income and puts her into the public sphere. Her externalization is, for the time, characteristically masculine; her livelihood does not consist of raising children, but of making business in the world. This recurring masculinity in the portrayal of Moll's character suggests a woman of a new era; the 1800s become an era in which the first cinders of feminism are kindled. But along with defiance of convention and female masculinity come the consequences: Moll remains, throughout the novel, an incredibly isolated figure. Each interaction she has with other human beings falls almost immediately, in most cases, to economic exchange. By her very external actions defining her character, the idea of family and companionship solely for human interaction and interpersonal connection is barely emphasized. The psychological, her inner life, is suppressed. The lack of any psychological probing by Defoe even isolates Moll, in certain cases, from us as readers. Defoe's Moll represents a changing age, one in which people are not entirely products of their circumstances and family, in which the individual becomes increasingly more valued over the ties of duty and kinship; her isolation is the product of not belonging to any particular group, but to herself."

"content": "Moll, in Defoe's Moll Flanders, is a female character who is curiously unmaternal. She abandons her children time and time again and shies away from ever creating or being part of a traditional family unit. In the early eighteenth century, women's roles were generally restricted to the private sphere; they were to maintain their homes and avoid public activities. But Moll entirely defies convention. From the very beginning of the novel, she is outwardly declarative of her wishes and intentions. Her methods of obtaining money force her into the public sphere where she practices a sort of employment, or at least a trade, despite its illicit nature. Her thievery provides her with a reliable income and puts her into the public sphere. In many ways, her external, rough life resembles the way in which men were expected to live; her livelihood is based on interacting with the world, not raising children. In a way, Moll suggests the advent of a new type of woman; there is the beginning of an anticipation of the nascent feminism of the nineteenth century. But with Moll's defiance of convention and adoption of characteristically male traits comes a penalty: she is, throughout the novel, an incredibly isolated character. Each of her interactions with other human beings falls almost immediately, in most cases, to economic exchange. Because what she does defines her, her actions don't leave much space for the concept of family or the type of companionship that is based on something other than economic exchange. The fact that Defoe does not attempt to depict Moll's psychological depth adds, in some ways, to her isolation, since at times, she can be isolated even from us. Moll's character suggests the advent of modernity, the idea that people are not entirely products of their circumstances, but individuals that are valued; the idea that family and class do not define a person, but that person defines himself. She is the manifestation of isolation that results from being part of no group but one's own."

"content": "Tecumseh’s father died in 1774, when Tecumseh was five, at the Battle of Point Pleasant, in what is now West Virginia. This was one of numerous skirmishes in Dunmore’s War, a brief but brutal war caused, predictably, by Virginians pushing west. The British then formally set the Ohio River as the boundary of the Indian lands. This boundary was a key fact of Tecumseh’s childhood, and its inevitable breaching by the white man the ground of his life’s work. His early years were spent near today’s Chillicothe; Cozzens does an excellent job of sketching the culture of the Shawnee, which we will discuss later."

"content": "The third reason the black-white binary is problematic is because it prevents coalition-building among people of color, which allows racial oppression to continue. Of all three reasons, this one is the most important: The hegemony of the black/white paradigm has stymied the development of an adequate account of the diverse racial realities in the US, and weakened the general theories of racism which attempt to be truly inclusive. This has had a negative effect on our ability to…create lasting coalitions…. Because the black-white binary focuses primarily on racial tensions between blacks and whites, other groups of color are neglected and may feel resentful toward blacks. The growing number of Latinos and Asian Americans has led to increased competition for employment, education, and political power. As a result, there is rising conflict between blacks and these new ethnic groups. In multi-ethnic cities (i. e. New York, Los Angeles, Houston) around the country, there have been reports of anti-Asian, anti-black, and anti-Latino sentiment among these people of color. Because many blacks, particularly African Americans, have bought into their essentialized minority position within the black-white binary, many feel a sense of entitlement and even nativism, which makes them feel superior to other people of color. Conflict among people of color over jobs and resources allows the system of white supremacy to continue and racial inequality to perpetuate. The inability of these groups to recognize their common struggle against racism prevents their ability to organize collectively and take a collaborative stand against racial oppression. As people of color quarrel among themselves instead of forming coalitions with one another, the status quo will continue to exist and racially oppress people of color. The black-white binary plays a very important role in this process because of its hegemonic existence. Late sociologist Antonio Gramsci proposes that hegemony operates through coercion and consent, where ruling groups elaborate and maintain a system of ideas and practices. This is exactly what the black-white binary does. Blacks, whites, and other people of color have either consented or been forced into reifying its existence. According to Espinoza, the politics of dichotomous categorical identity require individuals to be placed into or be forced to choose one particular defining identity. As long as people of color are unable to recognize and challenge the hegemonic power of the black-white binary, their ability to build enduring coalitions to oppose the racist status quo will be diminished."

"content": "At the outset of the novel, in Moll's youth, we see straight away what emphasis she places on independence and self-possession, very unfeminine characteristics for the time. She wants, as a gentlewoman, to be able to Work for myself, and get enough to keep me without that terrible Bug-bear going to Service, whereas they meant to live Great, Rich, and High. Her notion of being a gentlewoman centers entirely around what she can accomplish through her own actions. She values being able to Work for herself above all else; this is the foundation of her aspirations. The definition of gentry that she misses has to do with living Great and High, like how others in the society conceive of gentry. These, in contrast with the very physical nature of earning money and subsisting, are ideals and subjectivities. It is in the perception of others that one is great and high; the second part of belonging to the higher class has to do with social connections and establishment of a name in the higher society. Rather than wanting to belong to a class or to an insular group, Moll wants simply to be the master of herself. In the case of the first family of a gentlewoman who takes her in after the death of her Nurse, she is allowed to live a similar life to the daughters of the house: and as I was always with them, I learn'd as fast as they. . . yet I learn'd by Imitation and enquiry, all that they learn'd by Instruction and Direction…I learn'd to Dance and speak French as well as any of them. She outlines here the distinction she draws between formal learning, Instruction and Direction, which belongs to the realm of the gentry, and her own sort of learning, by Imitation and enquiry. Thus, she is not completely dependent on anyone for her learning; the mention of enquiry suggests an active curiosity that enables her to learn. Her learning alongside of the daughters of the family is acceptable, but we see later that it becomes problematic."

Her highest value is to be able to work for herself, and this is the foundation of her aspirations. The common definition of gentry that she misses is to live Great and High, as the common notion of gentry is. These ideals and notions are very different from the tangible reality of earning a living, as to be great and high is to be recognized as such by society, and to have connections. Unlike those who wish to belong to a certain class or group, Moll wishes only to have control over her own life. When taken in by a family of a gentlewoman after her Nurse dies, she lives much in the same manner as the daughters of the house: and as I was always with them, I learn'd as fast as they... yet I learn'd by Imitation and enquiry, all that they learn'd by Instruction and Direction…I learn'd to Dance and speak French as well as any of them. Here, Moll distinguishes between formal learning, Instruction and Direction, which is for those of the gentry, and her own method of learning, by Imitation and enquiry. She is not completely dependent on others for her learning; her mention of enquiry suggests an active curiosity that allows her to learn. Her learning alongside of the daughters of the family is acceptable at first, but later becomes problematic."

"content": "Ancestor worship, common mainly in Asia, Africa, and Oceania today, sees the ancestors sometimes even taking the place of traditional gods. We see this to an extent in ancient China, where solid pantheons of great gods were absent, but strong traditions of ancestor worship (these ancestors often being interchangeable with folk gods) were commonplace. With all of this, it’s certain that the ancestors and the gods were often intermixed, but an even more interesting possibility remains; that both ancestor veneration and polytheistic religion came from the exact same source. Now, to better understand something like that, we must take a trip to the Amazon. There, shamans are known for making a brew that the Quechua peoples call ayahuasca, which translates to “vine of the dead”, and it isn’t called that for nothing. The Quechua say drinking the brew allows one to meet the spirits of the ancestors. When Westerners make the trek into the rainforest to experience this for themselves, they may not see what they deem ancestors, but they certainly do see some sort of entities. It is this that is our mysterious missing origin of both the ancestors and the gods."

It is not the idea that you intend to carry the child to term that gives moral weight, but the fact the child is actually born. This allows for a suit on behalf of an individual that was harmed in utero, because, once it is born, the harm done to the fetus has moral implications. It would be a false action, however heart felt, to mourn or place blame if an early fetus dies. This is because the fetus has no moral weight, but the concept of the fetus as an infant has caused this mistaken belief.

The Supreme Court in Lawrence was not able to terminate discrimination against homosexuals, to allow them to marry in every state, or to create equal opportunities for them when applying for housing.

"content": "Factory farming, including the feedlot production of livestock, relies on and perpetuates the reduction of the ecosystem into a machine for capitalist production. Uniform production methods, like the systematic slaughter of hogs described above, create uniform products. They insist on taking the variation out of crops and preventing specialization of crop strains to ecological constraints. This exacts a toll on the fertility of the soil and the livelihood of the local fauna, and can lead to crop failure without massive inputs of synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. The goal of this artificially supported farming is no longer sustenance or variety, but production of the greatest quantity of the most consistent quality, of a few commodities. Sugar production in the Caribbean in the 1600s foreshadowed a trend that accelerated in corn growing near Chicago from the 1850s, and which continues in commodity farming today: when the land is inhabited with the express purpose of growing a cash crop, the land becomes a factory and the farmer a producer of widgets. And when producers impose uniformity on the land and its crops in an effort to make a profit, ecologically unsound principles reign. Using a battery of tools such as Cartesian mapping and place naming, urban planning, scientific and technology-based farming methods, a series of actors from early settlers to modern agribusinessmen reduced the land and its wildlife to their most profitable elements, thereby replacing a naturally ordered system with one patterned after an artificial blueprint for economic success."

"content": "The factory production of livestock followed this trajectory of uniformity, reduction, and systematization in two ways: dividing land into growing land and feedlots, and abandoning the natural life cycle of the animals. Livestock came to be seen as machines for producing valuable meat from inexpensive corn, as farmers realized it was more profitable to pen their animals and use former grazing lands to grow corn instead. This caused a dramatic compartmentalization of farmland for very specific purposes, and eliminated the symbiotic processes of feeding and fertilization that occur when animals graze in pastures. Now, land is for crops and feedlots are for cattle; separating the processes maximizes both economic efficiency and ecological malfunction. Most farmers abandoned breeding when they abandoned grazing, which further mechanized the animals. The point of a pig or cow's life was no longer to reproduce and pass on its genetic legacy, but to store corn energy. This changed cows from domestic animals into meat-producing machines, raw material to be fed into the hungry capitalist monster that Chicago became as its meatpackers revolutionized consumption patterns in America. As Michael Pollan describes, today's cattle are bred for large frames and well-marbled meat, and Michigan farmer Larry Gould explains that cattle are priced based on their adherence to a set of uniform standards. Uniformity has embedded itself in the meat production industry, leading eventually to the creation of concentrated animal feeding operations, wherein a crowd of physically indistinguishable animals exist as production units, fattening as quickly as possible before rapid disassembly-line slaughter."

"content": "Jessica has a negative relationship with her father, Shylock, which Shakespeare never fully explains. In her second line of the play she declares, Our house is hell. Before she even mentions Lorenzo, Jessica speaks of her father with distain. She goes on to say, Alack, what a heinous sin is it in me/ To be ashamed to be my father's child! But though I am a daughter to his blood, / I am not to his manners. Jessica openly states that she is ashamed to be Shylock's daughter, and though she admits that her feelings are sinful, she does not show any signs of guilt or remorse. She takes comfort that she is not like her father, but she never elaborates on what she finds distasteful in his character. A fair assumption may be that she is unhappy about being born a Jew and that she resents her father for passing on Judaism to her. Jessica loves a Christian man and plans to convert so she can marry him: I shall end this strife, / Become a Christian and thy loving wife. One definition of defy is to renounce faith [to], which Jessica does both in terms of faith as loyalty to her father, as well as faith in a religious sense. Hermia, on the other hand, does not insult her father Egeus's character or oppose him beyond his choice for her husband. His favor for Demetrius appears arbitrary and he lacks a valid argument against Lysander's character, family, or wealth. This portrays Hermia's defiance as less severe and more sympathetic than Jessica's."

She says very bluntly in Act 2 Scene 3 Our house is hell, before she even mentions Lorenzo. Jessica openly explains that she is ashamed to have Shylock as a father when she says, Alack, what a heinous sin is it in me/ To be ashamed to be my father's child! But though I am a daughter to his blood, / I am not to his manners. She recognizes that her feelings are sinful, but she does not display any feelings of guilt or remorse. Jessica finds comfort in the thought that she is different than her father. While Jessica does not explicitly say what she finds distasteful in her father's character, it is reasonable to assume that she is unhappy with being born Jewish and that she blames her father for passing Judaism on to her. Jessica's love with a Christian man and her decision to convert so she can marry him further support this assumption: I shall end this strife, / Become a Christian and thy loving wife. By going against her father and her religion, Jessica is renouncing her allegiance and faith. In contrast, Hermia does not insult or disagree with Egeus's character; she only disagrees with his choice of a husband. It is unclear why Egeus prefers Demetrius because he lacks a strong disapproval of Lysander's character, family or wealth. This makes Hermia's disobedience appear milder and more human in comparison with Jessica's."

"content": "Over the centuries of development of the industrial agriculture described above, Americans cultivated a tendency to regard all land as equally productive, regardless of its natural attributes, and see a fantastic potential in the land rather than its actual capability. They went to extremes of exploitation in order to fulfill this perceived potential, first by sowing endless single-crop fields in the East and Midwest, then by attempting to remake vast swaths of the Arid West in the model of the fertile Plains. Land in Arizona and California that was too dry for agriculture would have been perfectly suitable for grazing cattle, but settlers to the area still thought of farming as a more efficient use of acreage. This profit-driven insensitivity to the ecosystem spurred the massive irrigation efforts that turned the desert of southern California into one of the most productive agricultural areas in the world. Making the arid land as fertile as the land back east required incredible inputs of capital to create elaborate irrigation systems. These systems damaged natural watersheds and robbed rivers of their volume, but succeeded in painting the desert green. Western farmers, or at least the ones who held the water, made a profit on the remodeled land after giving it the same fecundity as the rest of the country. In this way, irrigation completed the transformation of an ecologically diverse continent into a monoculture of uniform, standard factory farms."

"content": "Throughout the development of industrial agriculture described above, Americans cultivated the habit of thinking of all land as equally productive regardless of its natural attributes. Instead of recognizing land's actual productive capabilities, they judged land by its potential and they went to extremes of exploitation to fulfill this perception of potential. Whether they planted endless single-crop fields in the East and Midwest, or attempted to remake vast swaths of Arid lands in the West into twin images of the fertile Plains, the idea was always the same. Even lands too dry to farm in Arizona and California that could have been put to good use as cattle pasture were ultimately deemed more valuable under the plow. Settlers in the West, like those in the rest of the country, saw farming as a more efficient use of land, and with enough capital for irrigation, they could turn a profit on land that would otherwise go to waste. With an eye to profit, and a disregard for the ecological balance of the land, they engaged in the massive irrigation endeavors that turned the desert of southern California into one of the most productive agricultural regions in the world. It took incredible amounts of capital to construct the elaborate irrigation systems needed to turn this arid land into a garden as fertile as those back East, but it was worth the investment to make the land as green as it was productive. Western farmers, particularly those with the power to command water, made profits in the remodeled landscape that rivaled those back East by attaining a level of agricultural fertility equal to the rest of the country. Thus, irrigation completed the transformation of an ecologically diverse continent into a monoculture of uniform factory farms."

"content": "When Europeans arrived in the Americas, they saw the New World ecosystem as the sum of its parts, rather than a whole, and from their first actions in the new land they strove to organize those parts in an unnatural way, into a system that ignored the ecological boundaries and resources around which the native life had structured itself. They began in colonial New England by mapping the continent and dividing it into private property, and they continued this behavior across the frontier. They labeled new world locations on their maps, replacing native names with meaningless abstractions of native place names, or with tributes to saints, colonial heroes, or European locales (St. Joseph, Evanston, and Holland are also Lake Michigan port towns). The local people had used names, such as chigagoa, the wild garlic place, to indicate sites where important resources might be found. Settlers abstracted these native names; they referred to the place as Chicago, but disregarded the name's meaning as they replaced the garlic fields with a grid of city streets. The replacement names signified the arrival of settlers, who became the focal point of an area, and this ignorance to the attributes of the land represented a small step toward uniformity."

The Chippewa used names like chigagoa, the wild garlic place, to refer to places where they knew they could find important resources. Settlers compromised on the native names; they settled in an area of garlic fields, calling it Chicago, but ignored the place's original meaning as they paved over the garlic with a grid of city streets. These new names symbolized the arrival of the new settlers, who became the focal point of the area, and this ignorance in regard to the land's features was a step in the direction of uniformity."

"content": "In addition to reporting research findings on the medicinal use of EC, academic writers contribute unique perspectives to the debate over EC availability and the struggle for federally approved OTC status. Current investigations center on the effectiveness of a one pill form of EC versus the conventional two pill prescription as well as on the effectiveness of anti-emetic drugs like meclizine for reducing the side-effects of EC. Much of the academic discussion following the May 2004 FDA decision to deny OTC status for Plan B centers on consequences for political dynamics between health care professionals, scientists who work to manufacture pharmaceuticals, pro-life and religious representatives, and government entities who introduce legislation relevant to reproductive health. While Fundamentalist Christian groups such as the Family Research Council and Concerned Women for America applauded the decision, feminist writers, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. and ACOG criticize the FDA decision: not only does this morally repugnant act hinder the availability of EC, but it also provides support for recent criticisms that political interference is hampering scientific review within federal agencies. For example, scholars consider the authority and autonomy of pharmacists and patients respectively and legislature mandating that all hospitals - even those supported by the Roman Catholic Church provide EC to rape victims. That scholars now dissect relationships between the church, science, and state provides evidence that the personal is increasingly political, with the female body and her reproductive choice the battleground through which cleats tear when the church and scientists tug-of-war with government entities."

Current studies include investigations into the effectiveness of a single-pill form of EC compared to the two-pill form, as well as the use of anti-emetic drugs such as meclizine to reduce the side effects of EC. Much of the academic discussion, however, has been generated in response to the May 2004 FDA decision to deny OTC status for Plan B and its implications for the political arena of health care professionals, pharmaceutical scientists, pro-life and religious advocates, and government entities that create reproductive health legislation. While groups such as the Family Research Council and Concerned Women for America applauded the FDA's decision, feminist authors, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc., and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) denounced the decision, arguing not only that it limits the availability of EC but also that it demonstrates the dangerous political interference that hinders scientific review within federal agencies. Scholars are also investigating the roles and autonomy of pharmacists and patients as well as legislation that requires all hospitals, including Roman Catholic Church-affiliated hospitals, to provide EC to rape survivors. This academic exploration of the intersections of religion, science, and government demonstrates the increasing politicization of the personal, with women's reproductive rights representing one of many contentious fields in which religious and scientific interests compete for power in opposition to government regulations."

In Shakespeare's King Lear we are presented with a tale of a man who is destroyed by making poor choices and loving the wrong people.

We can see a clear shift from this type of morality story, one in which a lone protagonist is stripped of everything he owns and must die and face the wrath of God, to the kind of attempted morality story that we see in The Vicar of Wakefield. In this new kind of story, we have a protagonist who is literally constantly surrounded by others, and rather than the judgment of God, we see the judgment of the narrator on all those around him."

While gerrymandering is very easy to orchestrate within SMD systems, it is much harder if not impossible in PR systems, for example. (This is because there are few, if any, district lines in PR systems and since these districts elect multiple officeholders in a proportional manner, the impact of manipulating the district lines tends to be muted.) Similarly, when it comes to voter suppression, the playbook is surprisingly easy to pull off in SMD: find districts that your opponent is likely to win, especially by a small margin, and then invent an excuse to make voting harder for your opponent’s supporters in those districts. For example, if your opponent wins support in urban areas, reduce the number of polling places so that it becomes much harder to vote in urban than rural areas. If your opponent is supported by particular economic or ethnic groups who live in concentrated geographic areas, find ways to target those groups and get them thrown off the voter rolls."

I could replace the word children with any tangible noun—shoes, for instance, or pillowcases—and the same basic meaning would remain. The children are being acted upon, taken; they have no agency and no human characteristics. In this sentence, the children serve the purpose of objects Moll chooses to leave behind.

Because of its impact on global health and its role in personal reproductive health, EC is relevant to a discussion on women's health and is an appropriate choice for a case study that can illuminate principles and operations of society."

Though the narrator continually criticizes a love of wealth, saying, the nakedness of the indigent world may be cloathed from the trimmings of the vain, when his wife and daughters attempt to dress up for church, we do not see this sentiment echoed in the action of the play. The wife and daughters never give up their love of finery, as a few weeks later they are at it again, asking to ride the horses to church, and are in the end rewarded by being married to rich men.

"content": "I suggest the theoretical framework Kim lays out in Bitter Fruits gives us reason to think racial prejudice might not be the most useful concept for understanding racial animus. Kim start with the assumption that racial categories and meanings are continuously being reproduced and challenged with profound social-structural implications. Race, for Kim, is a social construction that varies across time and place. Beyond this central concept of race as a social construction, Kim emphasizes two adjunct concepts: racial power and racial ordering. We might thing of racial power as the systemic tendency of the racial status quo to reproduce itself, writes Kim. Here, Kim follows Foucault, arguing that the expansion and solidification of power can be both intentional and non-intentional. She conceive of racial power not as something that an individual or group exercises directly and intentionally over another individual or group but rather as a systemic property, permeating, circulating throughout, and continuously constituting society. Writes Kim, … Whites, too, are constituted qua Whites by the operation of racial power. Racial power reproduces itself in a distinct racial order. In America, Kim writes, the racial order is a field structured by at least two axes: that of superior/ inferior and that of insider/ foreigner. Blacks and Whites constitute the major anchors (bottom and top, respectively) of this order, and incoming immigrants and other groups get positioned relative to these two loci. This field is a discursively constructed, shared cognitive map that serves as a normative blueprint for who should get what in American society."

We might be measuring racial prejudice, in the thin sense of pre-judgment, but, then – according to this extension of Kim's argument – we are really only measuring the existence of a race itself. So, I suggest, a more useful conceptualization of racial prejudice would examine whether or not racial animus is translated into actions against an individual or a group because of their race. We might understand and measure this alternative conceptualization as Sullivan and his colleagues' notion of tolerance. And if we are to use this alternative conceptualization, Sniderman and Piazza's work shows blacks, as I argued above, to be highly tolerant towards Jews."

"content": "In terms of intentional communication between organisms with common interests, there is little selection pressure for perfected truth and high selection pressure towards being gullible, reflecting the simple fact that reacting to even dozens of false alarms is more conducive for subsistence than not responding to one veracious alarm, with alarms under most conditions not being disruptive enough to jeopardize feeding, reproduction, or caring for the young. We see this in monkeys with smaller brains than ours: they contagiously howl and scamper up trees at the slightest predatorlike sign without much analysis, though not to a maladaptively frequent extent, while capable of being desensitized at least temporarily. These raw communicative acts allow the group to preserve individuals, promoting survival and ultimately the reproduction of all, resulting in persistence of this interpretive style of cognition."

"content": "When it comes to intentional communication between organisms with common interests, there is little evolutionary pressure to be perfect in truth, but strong pressure to be gullible. This is because in most cases it is better to react to many false alarms than to not react to one true alarm. And the cost of reacting to false alarms is usually not so high as to interfere with feeding, reproduction, and caring for the young. For example, monkeys with smaller brains than ours howl and go up trees at the slightest sign of danger without much analysis. But they do not do it so much that they are not able to function. And they can become desensitized for a while. These simple communicative acts increase the fitness of individuals in the group, which increases the fitness of the group as a whole, and so the cognitive approach is preserved by reproduction."

"content": "It is interesting that the narrator of this novel seems so convinced that he and his family are the perfect embodiment of Christian ideals. His wife seems more conniving that pious. London is the only place in the world for husbands. …as Ladies of quality are so taken with my daughters, what will not men of quality be! She is the very embodiment of Mrs. Bennett from Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice, and all of her meddling is rewarded in the end of the novel when her daughters are married to rich husbands. Charles, the narrator, is continually over-ridden and controlled by the whims of his family, rather than being the traditional stern and controlling father figure that is presented in most Christian tales. He is also given to moments of uncontrollable inaction. He finds himself unable to save his daughter as she is drowning in a river, and when he goes to rescue Olivia when she runs away he is waylaid for three weeks with illness. His inaction does not belie a kind of Christian fortitude to do what is right, and he is never punished for his inaction. Even, the unfortunate Moses was deceived (84). This is quite unlike the biblical Moses, who had the clairvoyance to be able to perceive the voice of God. He saw past the pharaoh's tricks in order to save his people. Moses Wakefield was not even able to see through the tricks of a common thief at market to help his family. The family is clearly lacking in Christian morals and strengths, and rather than atoning for this, they go through hardship only to be rewarded with wealth in the form of marriage to wealthy men. Rather than poverty being a blessing that allows them to live closer to God, as it is in when Everyman casts away his goods, it is an ordeal that they must live through and are rewarded for surviving by the acquiring of vast wealth. The business of wedding transactions is akin to winning the lottery plus a Get Out of Jail Free card to the Wakefield family. The moral lesson that we see here is, endure poverty, be good to those around you, and God will reward you with vast material riches. This is quite different from the reward of God's eternal love that Everyman and Lear receive after their deaths."

"content": "The narrator of this novel also strangely believes that he and his family live up to Christian ideals. However, his wife is more conniving than holy. London is a Capital Town for Husbands, he says, in which I could wish that all Ladies of quality were as taste of your Daughters, they'd have Husbands enow. She is very much like Mrs. Bennett from Jane Austin's Pride and Prejudice. Her meddling eventually leads to the marriages of her daughters to different Mecenaries, and thus she is rewarded. Charles, the narrator, is consistently over-ridden and directed by his family in a way that defies the commanding father figure that is common in Christian texts. Also, he is subject to periods of impotence, such as when he is unable to save his daughter from drowning or later when he comes down ill for three weeks and cannot go to rescue Olivia when she runs away. A lack of action is not consistent with the Christian endurance to do what is right, yet he receives no punishment for it. Even the great Moses was deceived, not at all like the biblical Moses, who was given the insight to recognize God's voice and was able to outwit the Pharaoh to save his people. Moses Wakefield was unable to see the shell game being played by a simple market thief to help his family. It is clear these people have none of the Christian ideals and strengths, yet instead of atoning, they are rewarded for suffering and eventually becoming married to rich men. Instead of the idea mentioned in Lecture that, Poverty is a blessing from God that brings you closer to him, as evidenced by Everyman being able to rid his body of his goods before passing on, this is a test of poverty that, once endured leads to a great wealth. Marriage for the Wakefield family is like winning the lottery and finding a Get Out of Jail Free card all in one. The moral of this story would seem to be: Endure poverty, be good to one another, and God will bless you with material wealth upon your passing. It is much different from the reward of God's eternal love that Everyman and Lear are given at their passing."

"content": "This is not to say, however, that The Vicar of Wakefield is completely devoid of morals. Rather, this story serves to show us how Christian morals are changing with society. Perhaps due to a rising middle class and exchange of goods an idea of reciprocity has entered Christianity. We can still see that an idea of giving to God without expecting in return is upheld in the vicar's exhortations, yet there is also a new idea that, Former benevolence will be repaid with unexpected interest (184). So, perhaps the morals haven't changed so much as the timeline seems to have changed—reciprocity can happen in this life or the next. We can see characters making larger strides to prove that they are doing good deeds, that they merit have wealth in their lives because of their good deeds. never was the family of Wakefield known to turn the traveler or poor dependent out of doors, (38) the narrator tells us, and indeed he spends the entire first chapter explaining his families goodness, benevolence, and charity. There is clearly a sentiment that one must justify ones wealth, or to say, one's wealth is a result of one's charity. In short, moral good is rewarded in this life as well as in the next."

"content": "I must qualify, however, that The Vicar of Wakefield is by no means amoral. Instead, the text shows us that Christian morals, too, are changing with the rest of society. Perhaps due to the rise of a middle class and the increased exchange of goods brought by this development, reciprocity has been incorporated into Christian morals. The vicar still holds to giving to God without expecting to receive in return, yet there is also a sense that, Former benevolence will be repaid with unexpected interest (184). So, there is a sense that morals themselves have changed very little, only the expected time of reciprocity has changed-- now it can be in this life as well as in the next. There is also a sense of the characters trying to prove their good deeds as they state that they are deserving of their wealth due to their good deeds. As the narrator states, The Wakefield family…never was…known to turn the traveler or poor dependent out of doors (38) and indeed the entire first chapter is devoted to showing the goodness, benevolence, and charity of the Wakefield family. There is a sense that one must justify his wealth, or to put it another way, one's wealth is a result of one's charity. There is indeed a sense that Moral good is rewarded in this life as well as in the next."

The first were the blue-backed spellers created by Noah Webster.

The second were the McGuffey Readers, written by the Reverend Williams Holmes McGuffey. These books were wildly popular, second in sales only to the Bible, and offered some semblance of a common curriculum in America's tens of thousands of ungraded schools includ[ing] excerpts from the Bible such as the Sermon on the Mount, speeches by Patrick Henry as well as Hamlet's soliloquy, and selections by American writers including Washington Irving and William Cullen Bryant. But the readers were designed for more than academic instruction; they explicitly taught moral and religious values, instilling the idea that hard work, discipline and ethical behavior would lead to self-respect, public honor and economic success. Therefore, the widespread use of these books provided a common curriculum for American students, and were the beginnings of an educational system that created common values integral to the nascent nation."

Education, Mann said, was the great equalizer, with the potential to demolish distinctions between groups of people, enabling society to escape from the trap of redistribution of wealth as the only mechanism for advancement – education would allow for the creation of more wealth, facilitating the advancement of the poor while allowing the affluent to retain their wealth. This idea, in turn, promoted the idea that education in a democratic society would provide for the possibility of advancement based on merit, not exclusively on the wealth or social standing of one's parents.

The theoretical implications of Locke's state of nature should not be equated with Hobbes's state of nature, or Rousseau's for that matter – Locke's state of nature is very much his own, dependent upon Locke's particular conception of legitimate government, civil society, and Protestant theology. Locke's describes the state of nature as that state all men are naturally in… that is, a state of perfect freedom to order their actions, and dispose of their possessions and persons, as they think fit, within the bounds of the law of nature, without asking leave, or depending upon the will of any other man (ST, 8)."

"content": "To conclude: racial stereotyping, racial prejudice, and racial tolerance are all valuable objects of social science research. However, it is important that we recognize that these concepts are distinct. Before applying one or more of these concepts, we must first consider what questions we are asking, and to what purpose. If we agree with Kim's theory of racial construction, measuring racial stereotyping does not help us answer questions of on-the-ground racism: in other words, stereotyping is not in itself an indicator of whether one would discriminate for or against a member of a racial group because they are a member of that racial group. Stereotyping, in Kim's schema, is merely an indicator of the existence of race (which is always a social construction). Furthermore, racial prejudice has shown itself to be a slippery concept. On the one hand, we might understand prejudice to be the equivalence of stereotyping, in which case we should be as wary of our application of prejudice as we are of stereotyping. On the other hand, if we understand racial prejudice to be something more robust – where prejudice incorporates actions against members of other groups based upon their race – then we should consider whether or not what we are really discussing is tolerance. And, if it is indeed tolerance, we need consider, as Sullivan, Piereson, and Marcus demonstrate, a two-step measurement schema."

In such a way, need and demand, absence and lack—perhaps subjects within desire—become signifiers that reflect on our current construction of desire. In such a way, desire in our contemporary moment is conflated with terms like lust and love (through other theorists than Lacan) as they are trace elements embedded within the subject/signifier of desire. Lacan, therefore, seems to support in theory the construction of desire with which we began our exploration—that desire is the intersection of trace theories of desire (das Begehren, Wunsch) (and is thus subject to psychoanalysis and deconstruction)."

This quirky device, which I’m sure Anderson thought would play as ironic humor, actually creates a linguistic distance between us and his characters. As a result, the Japanese come across as less than human. He adds to his woes by giving his people-dolls a plasticine look whereas the dog-dolls are all fur and gorgeous texture. These twin mistakes dehumanize the Japanese characters. The whole point of anti-Japanese propaganda during World War Two was to dehumanize the noble Japanese race into subhuman ‘yellow monkeys’ that our military forces could murder with a clear conscience. The entire premise of Isle of Dogs is that the Japanese are so evil they want to kill all dogs. Since the movie is told through the canine point of view, dogs are the ones we sympathize with and, more importantly, understand. After all, they speak English.

The income from each of these — rent, wages and interest — comprise our collective wealth and represent the tax base from which we fund our public institutions. This three-factor model and specifically rent (the locational value or fertility of land) has been lost by our policymakers. Had they included it, our current tax system would be simple and just. Yes, the word “rent” is confusing and another one of those big words the economists use to make sure us simple folk don’t feel comfortable challenging their ivory tower authority."

No scene in his career better exemplifies this opening, nor his talent for presenting tableaus of utter human misery. Sitting across from each other in quiet opposition, you might wonder why we humans put ourselves through these games. The scene suggests that our decision to do so might as well be a comedy. All one can do is laugh."

"content": "Ultimately, the politicized FDA decision determines that women cannot have federally approved access to EC without a prescription when personally regulating their fertility. Because the distribution of EC and female reproductive health are politically ingrained, it is unsurprising that access to EC occurs on multiple levels subject to different biases, each with the potential to preclude a female from acquiring the contraception. EC, after all, can only provide a way for women to execute reproductive agency by preventing pregnancy if women have access to the drug within at least 72 and up to 120 hours after unprotected sex."

"content": "Ultimately, the politically motivated decision of the FDA determines that women cannot have access to federally approved EC without a prescription in the private management of their fertility. Because the distribution of EC and the female reproductive health are politically intertwined, access to EC is vulnerable to multiple levels of bias, each of which may impede a woman's access to EC. In order for EC to be an effective means by which women can privately exercise reproductive control and prevent pregnancy, EC must be available to women within at least 72 hours and up to 120 hours after unprotected intercourse."

"content": "But as in this author’s previous analysis, illegitimacy is not sufficient to label a State action or violence terrorism. Instrumentality is a necessary condition. In this case, the Chinese’s government actions need to create fear beyond the immediate person or peoples receiving the action. China’s destruction of Muslim shrines and mosques likely meets this standard. Since 2017, the Chinese government has destroyed approximately 8,500 mosques, according to an analysis conducted by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI). Here, the destruction of the mosques is not itself terrorism. Rather when coupled with the forceful detentions and other actions, the messaging or the instrumentality of the mosque’s destructions implies to the rest of the unaffected Uyghurs and by extension other Muslim minorities in China — to assimilate to traditional Chinese culture or else."

"content": "As in the author’s previous analysis, an act of State action or violence cannot be called terrorism merely because it is illegitimate: it also needs to have an instrumental, purposive character. In the case of China, it is not enough that the Chinese government commits an act, the act also needs to inspire fear among those not directly affected by it. I would imagine that on its own, the destruction of Muslim shrines and mosques in China appear to meet the criteria. Since 2017, an estimated 8500 mosques have been destroyed according to the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI). On its own, the destruction is not an act of terrorism. But when it is set against the backdrop of mass, forced detentions and other measures, I imagine this destruction would be seen as a message sent to those Uyghurs and other Muslim minorities in China not yet detained. It is a message saying you have to assimilate to the traditional Chinese culture or suffer our wrath."

It is not untrue to suggest, in fact, that psychological research in broad terms, is the study of happiness and unhappiness. Motivation, satisfaction, personality, personal values, social interaction, health and wellness and so on, are at their base, examinations of human thought, feeling and behaviour. Within psychological research, there are considered three levels of happiness experience."

A part of this problem can be solved through our education system which tends to segregate subjects in an orthodox manner and allows us to take up only specific combinations of them together. We need to bring in more fluidity in our system which allows us to choose and even change subjects if and when we want to. This is achievable if we give every profession the same dignity and make people aware of the various career options in every field.”"

The only feathers suitable for writing are the birds’ stiff flight feathers, and each bird produces only about a dozen of such feathers per year, with the strongest feathers coming from living birds.

While this torment was an annual event, the geese had other feathers ripped from their bodies 3–5 times per year for down, with the agonizing experiences ending only after about a decade when they were finally slaughtered for food."

"content": "In A Special Type of Choice of Object, Freud positions desire in relation to an infantile fixation on the mother—a fixation that revolves around the libido and sexual gratification. Freud writes that the information a boy receives at the onset of puberty—that of sexual activity and sexual longing—awakens in him the memory-traces of his infantile Oedipal relation with his mother, that he begins to desire his mother herself in the same sense with which he has recently become acquainted (that of sexual longing) (171). Freud relates these desires to impulse—it is an impulse to know the mother sexually that the boy acquires at the onset of puberty (Ibid. ). Thus, for Freud, desire and sex are linked—desire becomes a manifestation of the sexual impulse and, as the mother becomes the boy’s choice of love-object, love, too, is linked to desire. One can further illuminate the connection between sexual impulse and desire if one reads A Special Type of Choice through Freud’s use of desire in Dora. Desire, in Dora, is that which is repressed—as the boy necessarily represses his sexual impulse for his mother, sexual impulse and desire become as a matter of consequence linked. Later in Object, Freud actually uses the term desire to describe the driving force of the boy’s lust for his mother—such that, again, drive and lust are moved into the modern constellation of desire, as is fixation as the boy fixates on his mother as the object of his lust."

"content": "In A Special Type of Choice of Object, Freud theorizes desire in relation to the infantile fixation on the mother, in terms of the libido and sexual gratification. Freud writes that With the arrival of puberty, the changes in the genitals bring about a revival of the infantile Oedipus attitude toward the mother, that the desire for the mother now receives, so to say, its second publication from the side of the sexual instinct, and the boy begins to desire his mother herself in the same sense with which he has recently become acquainted (that of sexual longing). Freud links these desires to impulse—that is, the impulse to know the mother sexually that arises at puberty (Ibid. ). So for Freud, desire and sex are linked, with desire an expression of the sexual impulse and as the mother becomes the boy’s choice of love-object—love, also, is linked to desire. The link between sexual impulse and desire can be illuminated by reading A Special Type of Choice through Freud’s theorization of desire in Dora. Desire, in Dora, is something repressed—as the boy must repress his sexual impulse for his mother, desire and sexual impulse are also linked. Later in Object, Freud actually uses the word desire to explain the driving or lustful nature of the boy toward his mother—so drive and lust are moved into the modern constellation of desire as well—fixation, likewise, manifests in the boy’s fixation on the mother as the object of his lust."
