Professors Hight, Janowski, P. Wilson
Chair: Patrick A. Wilson
The requirements for a Philosophy major are Philosophy 102, 201, 210, 302 or 303, 304 or 305, 412, 413, and an additional 9 hours in the discipline (30 total hours). Interdisciplinary majors involving philosophy may be developed and pursued with the approval of the departments concerned.
For more information about the department, see its web page.
INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY. Does God exist? What makes life meaningful? How to explain consciousness? Am I somehow (how?) one and the same being over time? Could a computer think? What makes a person a person? What is the source of morality? And what does morality require of me? If I want to be a good man and good citizen, how should I live my life? This course welcomes students to the practice of philosophy via a careful examination of questions such as these. Be ready to think hard about your basic beliefs—and to be unsettled. Prerequisite: none. Offered: each semester.
LOGIC. The ability to think critically and recognize unsound reasoning is fundamental to a liberal education and valuable in graduate and law school, as well as a wide variety of occupations. This course provides a traditional introduction to propositional logic and proof methods, accompanied periodically by an introduction to categorical and/or predicate logic. Prerequisite: none. Offered: each semester.
ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL PHILOSOPHY. Emphasizing the thought of Plato and Aristotle, this course seeks to develop intellectual virtues in students today by examining the views of early western philosophers from the pre-Socratics through the medieval era. The course is typically the second course students take in philosophy but is suitable for any student seeking to improve his critical thinking skills. Prerequisite: none. Offered: fall semester.
PHILOSOPHY OF RELIGION. The tenets of various religions and the phenomenon of religion itself raise deep philosophical questions: Can God's existence be proven? Why does God allow suffering? How central are humans to creation? What gives rise to religious experience? As an investigation of foundational questions in metaphysics, epistemology, and ethics, this course will appeal to believers and nonbelievers alike. Prerequisite: none. Offered: spring semester of odd-numbered years.
PHILOSOPHY OF ART. What makes art "art"? Indeed, can "art" be defined at all? What is the difference between various types of art—a piece of music versus a sculpture, say? What is beauty? Are judgments regarding artworks and beauty subjective or objective? Is art important and valuable? Should the state support art and artists? What is the relation between art and morality? Should art ever be censored? Can you imagine a case where you would respond in the affirmative and, say, picket in front of a museum? In this course we'll think about questions such as these—questions that will appeal to artist and non-artist alike. Prerequisite: none. Offered: most spring semesters.
MODERN PHILOSOPHY: RATIONALISTS. Our contemporary ways of thinking (in science, religion, and elsewhere) are built upon the foundations of early modern thinkers such as Descartes, Leibniz, Spinoza, and Malebranche. This course examines the philosophy of the early modern tradition known as rationalism, engaging questions about the nature of the mind, whether the material world has empty space, the nature of identity, monads, and more! Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: spring semester of even-numbered years.
MODERN PHILOSOPHY: EMPIRICISTS AND KANT. This course examines the philosophy of the early modern tradition known as empiricism, focusing on the work of Locke, Berkeley, Hume, and Reid. It concludes by engaging Kant's response to his predecessors. Topics include personal identity, arguments as to why material substance does not exist, and intriguing discussions about the limits of human knowledge. Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: spring semester of odd-numbered years.
NINETEENTH-CENTURY PHILOSOPHY. Is the world a fundamentally rational place? What is our role in such a world and how might we change it? Such questions are engaged in this course, which focuses on the thought of Hegel and Marx. The remainder of the course considers the views of philosophers such as Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, Mill. Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: fall semester of even-numbered years.
CONTEMPORARY PHILOSOPHY. Can there be two distinct material objects in the same place at the same time? How do words get their meanings and refer to the world? What are colors, and where are they located? What is consciousness, and what sorts of beings possess it? What does it mean to know anything, and how does that differ from being certain about things? What is the most just way to organize society? This course engages relatively recent work on these and similarly pressing questions. Typically the course content is shaped by student interest. Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: fall semester of odd-numbered years.
PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE. Modern science employs uniquely effective methods for obtaining knowledge of the natural world. This course explores the philosophical foundations of science: What does it mean for evidence to confirm a theory? For a theory to explain a phenomenon? What constitutes a scientific theory in the first place? Does the nature of science change through history? In this course students reflect on how science works and why it works so well. Prerequisite: none. Offered: fall semester of even-numbered years.
SCIENCE AND RELIGION. Does the Big Bang entail creation from nothing? Are rational beings central to the development of the universe or the evolution of life? Is any purpose evident in that development or evolution? Do explanations involving intelligent design conflict with those by natural selection? Questions like these motivate this course, which will appeal to students interested in religion, science, or any of the numerous philosophical questions to which these subjects give rise. Prerequisite: none. Offered: fall semester of odd-numbered years.
ETHICS. Are all actions self-interested? Is altruism possible? How to explain human nature? Is it fixed and constant? Or might human nature change across time? Just how and why do others matter? (Or do they?) Is morality founded in reason or emotion? What are the virtues? What is happiness? How should I live my life? This course addresses these and other basic questions—questions at once both fun and challenging—in philosophical ethics. Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: fall semester.
SOCIAL PHILOSOPHY. What is justice? What is freedom? Are persons one another's equals? Are justice and freedom and equality somehow compatible? Or are they essentially at odds? What are rights—where might they come from and which ones (if any) might we have? What is the state and what should it do? What kinds of social and economic institutions and practices are worth defending? If you were God, how would you organize society—and why? This course encourages students to think critically about society via a lively examination of questions such as these. Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: spring semester.
JUNIOR/SENIOR SEMINAR. A capstone sequence, required for junior and senior philosophy majors, which usually focuses on an individual philosopher or issue in some depth. The seminar format encourages especially close reading of seminal texts, prompts vigorous discussions of the same, and develops students' facility in the conventions of philosophical research. Students also have the special opportunity to work closely—discussing their ideas one on one and honing the arguments of their individual research essays—with two visiting scholars, both of whom are experts on the topic of the seminar. The capstone sequence is an exciting and fitting culmination of our majors' experience in the department. Prerequisite: major in philosophy or consent of the instructor. Offered: 412 in spring semester of even-numbered years; 413 in spring semester of odd-numbered years.

So we are suggesting that through the master programs, those who want to get "certified" are the only ones who teach, while the rest never do. Ok.
.A beekeeper needs a certification that he/she use brains.
PS. I really will never believe that you actually feel the way you are posting. I just see more trolling for an argument. You are much too smart to not see the program for what it is.
tillie, one should never be discouraged or criticized for bettering themselves or encouraging others to. Ignore the blowhards and be proud of what you have done. I may be new to beekeeping, but I'm certainly not new at life.
I'm here, but I see no reason to continue, unless you decide to take the blinders off and see what is really in the other posts.

It's THAT good.

I'm with you! Tycho was probably one of the most important Astronomers (I went with Kepler for mine). I'm kind of disappointed how little most of the top-voted designs actually have to do with the science of astronomy.

This is really darn cool
ochopika wrote:Thanks, wirdou and amreli. I had to leave the kid out because most of the feedback I got on the old design was that the rectangular shapes were "weird". I found that the composition wasn't working when I tried to have both figures in the new design. I went with the alien and earth because, as amreli said, the human kid is implied by the earth being there.
I'm happy with this design, though it would be nice to get up there in the fog. I enjoyed making this one either way.
The composition is definitely better on this one, I agree. Oooh, what would be really cool would be to have the human kid image on the back (with the alien on the front)...I know you can't submit that for the derby, if it doesn't print (though I sincerely hope it does!) maybe it can be a daily sub....

I like this idea too
Re: Cosmic Chicken
Not sure why this doesn't have more votes. It's great! The colors are awesome and its funny. I hope it at least gets an HM.
I love this concept. The rendering of the super nova is extraordinary and it goes well with your person-graphic. I'm just not fond of the way the chemical equations seem superimposed, not part of, the image.
If you had worked them in more, or used a different font, or something... this would certainly have my vote, and I'd be begging my friends to vote for it, too. I'd really want it.
Re: Racing to Make Worlds
Love, love love the way you illustrated the planets, hare, and turtle.
Not fond of the composition, though. Otherwise, you'd certainly have my vote. Can't wait to see what you do next.
I think if I knew who Thyco Brahe was, I'd fall for this. Beautiful illustration.
Pardon me while I go correct a (nother) bit of my ignorance.
Re: Totality Jerk
I think the colors could be more fun with this, but I'd still buy it.
Very cute concept.

PROGRAMS Ph.D. RANKS NO. 1
The University of Colorado at Boulder Graduate School of Business Administration was recently ranked No. 1 in doctoral entrepreneurship education at the 42nd World Conference of the International Council of Small Businesses in San Francisco.
The entrepreneurship doctoral program out-ranked competing schools such as Harvard, Purdue, Northwestern, University of Georgia, University of South Carolina, Wharton, Michigan, University of North Carolina and Texas A&M.
CU-Boulders entrepreneurship program has found a successful formula combining entrepreneurship and strategic management. Thats one aspect that distinguishes our program the Ph.D. students here receive their degree in strategic management with an emphasis in entrepreneurship, explained Professor Dale Meyer.
They have a mother discipline and have research and teaching experience in entrepreneurship. This makes them versatile and attractive when applying for teaching positions, Meyer said.
Meyer says the doctoral students who study entrepreneurship at CU are exposed to the nations leading scholars when participating in conferences, research projects and university activities. They also work with CU business faculty members who have been awarded an entrepreneurial research grant in finance, human resources management, organizational behavior, strategic management and marketing.
Former CU-Boulder students are now teaching entrepreneurship at schools such as Vanderbilt, Cornell, University of Tennessee-Knoxville, Wake Forest, California State-San Marcos, University of Connecticut, Bentley and the University of Oregon.
The ranking criteria for the International Council of Small Businesses award included:
Research and publication output of doctoral students in the 1990s;
Placement records;
Continued visibility of students as researchers and teachers;
Internal and external research grants for faculty;
and quality of doctoral entrepreneurship seminars.

Tall ships return to Cleveland
(Cleveland) - A dozen historic war ships have sailed into the port of Cleveland as the city revives its Tall Ships Festival.
During the festival from Wednesday to Sunday, the ships will provide a glimpse at the kind of wooden sailing vessels used to win the war of 1812. It's the first gathering of the replica ships in Cleveland since 2010.
100,000 people are expected to turn out for the festival, which offers ship tours, cruises on some of the vessels, dockside exhibits, food and entertainment.
Later this summer, the ships will help re-enact the battle of Lake Erie, which happened 200 years ago and ensured control of the lake for the U.S. for the remainder of the war.
The ships arrived Wednesday afternoon with a Parade of Sails.

Design: Clearvue Graphics Aircraft Series
Dimensions: 30x65 (SUV)
See-through window graphics are printed on mechanically perforated vinyl. This vinyl has a sticky adhesive on one side, protected by a peel away release layer. This perforated material, known as window perf, is made by many companies around the United States. All see-through window graphics are printed on basically the same material. The difference between graphic companies is what they print on this material!
The beauty of window perf is that it is incredibly low tech, comprised of 50% vinyl and 50% holes. Human eyes absorb light reflected from objects. When someone looks at the image on your window, their eyes absorb the light being reflected off of the printed image. The holes cannot be seen.Thegraphic looks like asolidimage!
The sticky side of the graphic which faces the glass, is black. Looking out from inside the vehicle, your eyes absorb light reflected off objects outside the vehicle, such as buildings, cars, trees, etc. Your eyes blend the black material on the inside with the images seen through the holes, creating the illusion that there is nothing on your window. The resulting effect will amaze you! These graphics apply to the outside of the window and will not effect, or be effected by window tints of factory window defrosters.
Another benefit of having this material on your window is UV protection. ClearVue Graphics block 50% of the sun's UV rays. These rays are responsible for fading vehicle interiors and heating the cab. ClearVue Graphics will keep your vehicle cooler and preserve the interior from fading. Because these graphics prevent outside viewing into your vehicle, you will enjoy a dramatic increase in privacy as you drive down the road, or while parked at a scenic location.
ClearVue Graphics use high-resolution photographic images for many of our graphics. Our images are crisp, clear photographs captured by photographers who are published in magazines and books including: Outdoor Life, The Harley Davidson Catalog, The Motorcycle Hall Of Fame, American Hunter, Audubon, Time, Life, Sports Afield, Skin Diver, National Wildlife, Field & Stream, National Geographic, Salt Water Fly Fishing, American Angler, American Hunter, Big Game Adventures, Bowhunter, Fly Fisherman, Fly Rod & Reel, Gray's Sporting Journal, Petersen's Hunting Shooting Sportsman, Sports Afield, Salt Water Sportsman, Surf, Surfing, Powder, Skiing, American Cowboy and more.
Amazing artists and illustrators are responsible for all non-photographic images in our catalog. These people range from teams of illustrators (as with our unequalled collection of flaming skulls and other gruesome beauties) to fine artists crafting paintings in oil, acrylic and watercolors.

KANSAS CITY, MO. – Three city public works agencies have been selected to receive the American Public Works Association (APWA) 2014 national Excellence in Snow and Ice Control Awards. Established to promote excellence in the management and administration of public works snow and ice operations, the Excellence in Snow and Ice Control award promotes the best practices in snow and ice removal, while minimizing environmental impacts. This year, the Excellence in Snow and Ice Control Awards will be presented at the 2014 APWA North American Snow Conference, May 4-7, 2014 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
The three recipients selected for this year's APWA Excellence in Snow and Ice Control Awards include:
*Bettendorf, IA. Public Works Department: For the past 20 years, Bettendorf has had a policy with the objective of snow removal operations to have bare pavement within 24 hours after the cessation of snow fall from an average snowstorm of four to six inches (4"-6") on all city streets. Bettendorf is the only city of its size (population 33,217) in Iowa to have a bare pavement standard. Its citizens have consistently given the city high ratings, according to surveys taken by the National Citizen Survey (NSC), which is a collaborative effort between the National Research Center and the International City/County Management Association (ICMA). Responses to the survey, given in 2006, 2008, 2010 and 2012 rated citizen satisfaction with the city's snow removal between 80-89%, which is significantly above the benchmark.
*City of Bloomington, MN. Department of Public Works: Bloomington hosts major industries, including retail and entertainment, as well as the Mall of America with 341 miles of road, 520 culde-sacs, and 251 miles of sidewalk. The City's snow and ice control season can start as early as October and last until May, bringing an average of 45-50 inches of snow. Municipal parking lots are also maintained to provide access to city buildings for the public and employees. The snow and ice control require many divisions in the City, including snowplow operators from Street Maintenance, Park Maintenance, Facilities Maintenance, Traffic Maintenance, Equipment Maintenance, Utilities, Engineering and the City-owned golf course. In recent surveys among cities in the U.S. that are similar in size and demographics, Bloomington ranked #1 in 2012 and #2 in 2013 for resident satisfaction in snow and ice control.
*City of Council Bluffs, IA. Public Works Operations Department: Council Bluffs' Public Works Department maintains a network of more than 301 center lane miles and 588 lane miles of major and local streets, and has the largest municipal street network in Western Iowa. The Streets Division is comprised of 28 employees and is responsible for the maintenance of the city streets, along with unimproved roads, alleys, ROW mowing, street sweeping, ADA ramps, signs, signals, lighting, city owned sidewalks and snow/ice maintenance. Throughout the winter, public works provides snow and ice control for all of the lane miles of road network. Snow removal is performed with the assistance of the Sewer and other divisions on a 24-hour schedule when snow events develop. When snow maintenance operations occur, snow removal is prioritized by designated emergency snow routes, hills, and then residential streets. Snow removal begins when any accumulation of snow/ice develops on city streets.
About APWA Excellence in Snow and Ice Control Awards Program: Any public works agency actively involved in snow and ice removal and operations are eligible, and APWA membership is not required to be selected for the award.

I have a 1928 Ford Model A Roadster and at the moment it is primered grey. For the majority of you readers, would it look better flat black? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8st_NPIj2ko&feature=plcp
Garryowen! The 7th 1st!
when the link is hit, the address in the opened page is http://https//....etc,need to remove first http:// then add : between s & //, then the link works and video plays...I tried to relink for OP but did not work...go figure...mag site...hard to use effectively
NICE ridepersonally I'd want the front spring perch fully welded, but it's your catapult ride, if you're comfortable with it go for itcolor, ANYTHING but red, but something that isn't on every other rod would be coolest, IMO, enjoying it is the most important part
I watched both of your videos. I read the captions. IMO, finish the car and everytime you look at it, think of it, and drive it, you think of all the good times you spent with your dad. My opinions come form a similar loss this summer, I've got my own project that will be a rememberance, and a continuation of joy that my son will participate in.
I do not have the resources to finish the car. The hot rod will be sold as is, in the case that someone wants to alter it. Your opinion has great insight as to what some want when they look at a Hot Rod for sale. If there is a financer out there, who would like to go in 1/2s, I think the car would bring 30K finished. Please people, tell me your opinion on my ideas.
Garryowen! The 7th 1st!
The welds were not fully welded because my father died before it was finished. My Father wanted to see the "Big picture".
Garryowen! The 7th 1st!
Did I mention his First name was Ford? and my Middle name?Do not hate me please.
Garryowen! The 7th 1st!
I didn't know how far along the car has come since the video was taken. I have heard stories of suicide front-ends falling off, that's what made me take notice of yours.I personally won't dislike you for something your parents did to you. I suppose it'd be alright to carry on the family tradition with your son.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8st_NPIj2ko&feature=plcp lets see if this link works for ya? cool project car!
Video worked for me there Joe..Thats one cool hot rod! I wouldn't care what color that would be but think of several that would look good, including flat black!
I know some people have more in life that surfing the mag's forum but I'd like to see a follow-up on this car.

Giving to SPC
Founders Opportunity Scholarship Endowment
The Founders Opportunity Scholarship Endowment is the single largest scholarship program held by the South Plains College Foundation. Established in 1998 as part of the SPC's 40th Anniversary, the Founders Endowment awards general academic scholarships to incoming freshmen who graduate from service area high schools and beyond.
The Founders Endowment honors the member of the 1956 Citizens Committee that garnered state and community support for the establishment of South Plains College in 1957. These founding fathers believed that the region's high school graduates and young adults needed greater opportunity to realize the dream of a college education.
The endowment currently totals in excess of $2.3 million. A long-term goal of $3 million has been set for the fund. Proceeds from the annual Scholarship Gala and the SPC Scholarship Golf Scramble, as well as contributions and grants from individual donors and private foundations, help the fund grow each year.
The CH Foundation, established by the late Christine DeVitt, has been a primary contributor to the Founders Opportunity Scholarship Endowment. Named a Pacesetter for 2004 by the Foundation Board of Directors, The CH Foundation has contributed $525,000 to the endowment since 2000.
The fund will award $80,000 in scholarships to incoming and returning South Plains College students for the 2013-14 academic year. The majority of these students will be first-generation college students.
Contributions of any amount to the Founders Opportunity Scholarship Endowment are always welcome.

I think the Michelin tire people really screwed up.
This is how I look at it, if Ridell or some other equipment maker had abad batch of helmets and some of them may split in 2, is that not the manufacturers fault? Seems to me that the 14 cars that pulled out were making a really bad decision, and the fans got screwed and tattoed royally as a result! They could have raced, but they think they are going to bully F1 governing body, yeah right. That is like going up against the NFL... Hey since the helmet crack in 1/2, no tackles above the waist should be allowed for the superbowl. Yeah right :pissed:
I am in the process of buying 6 tires for my 1 ton--guess what---Michellin ain't on the list no more. :mrgreen:

"The cards felt of quality in your hands. They were not only beautiful with a black and white photo, they looked elegant and felt elegant."
"As usual with Tinyprints, the quality of this card is exceptional. I was extremely happy with it and the turn around time was unbelievable. I ordered on a Sunday and it was on my doorstep on Tuesday. I ordered the blue version with the traditional rectangle shape and the solid blue back with three captioned pics. It looks fantastic! Almost too good to be true for the price, but that's why I love this company and order from them regularly. Also, I can't say enough about the customer service at Tinyprints. From my experience, It is one of the best companies for putting the customer first and making sure you are satisfied. I have been a customers for years and anytime I have had a problem with a finished product, the issue is resolved and a replacement immediately sent. And...they don't send my call out of the country and keep me on the phone for hours haggling over it. They are courteous, professional and efficient."
"I ordered this last minute for my Mom from a recent photograph that was taken at Christmas. My mom already received a call asking where she got the beautiful picture and card. Love tinyprints!"
"This card (in the gold color scheme) looked great with a photo that had been "antiqued" in iPhoto. Quality of paper and printing were excellent with no upgrades. The back is elegant- got lots of great comments on this card. Highly recommend."

So, recently I was sent the Flash and Go from Silk'n, which features the same technology at the Sens Epil machine, but with only 3 intensity settings instead of 5, and a much smaller and compact size. Yes, it is pretty much the size and set up of a phaser that Captain Kirk would use. It's also small enough that I've just left it in the corner of my makeup vanity area, quickly plug it in when I am going to use it, so it takes about 1-2 minutes at the most to do a treatment. Love that!
It does take a while to see results. I have treated myself about every 2 weeks since November, and I'm just now starting to see a decrease in hair. I think it did take longer to see results than with the Sens Epil, simply because I had that on setting 5 and this was setting 3. Also, I'm sure that my hair is all in very different phases of growth due to continual waxing/plucking, and things were just going in and out of phase. This is much more true on my face than on my legs (where I mostly used the Sens Epil, and which I typically just shave).
I'll definitely be continuing with the Flash and Go. I love how quick and easy it is to use, and I'm already seeing results. While not super cheap at $299, it is much less than the $500-750 that a friend was recently quoted for professional laser hair removal in the same area. (ote that neither pro or at home laser hair removal are completely permanent. You'll need touch ups no matter which way you go. My touch ups are just done at home with the same machine, no appointments needed!
If you're thinking about using an at home hair removal laser, you should definitely go and read my post about how at home laser hair removal works and figure out if you're a good candidate first!

Aqueduct's last live race on Thursday will go to post at 3:10 p.m., with the second-floor clubhouse remaining open for simulcasting until approximately 5:30 p.m. Telebet/internet wagering closes at approximately 6 p.m.
* * *
Monterey Jazz, who earned a Beyer Figure of 118 in his eight-length victory in the Grade 3 Texas Mile in April, was en route to Aqueduct today, where he will compete in Saturday's 20th running of the Grade 1, $300,000 Hill 'n' Dale Cigar Mile.
"He's on his way," said trainer Craig Dollase from California. "He'll be at Rick Violette's barn later today and we're looking forward to the race."
Dollase will not be in for the race, but has sent assistant Sergio Martin to accompany the 4-year-old Thunderello colt, who has won on turf, dirt and synthetic surfaces. An injury forced Monterey Jazz to miss the summer, but he has won two of three starts this year. His other victory was in the Grade 2 Strub at Santa Anita..
"He hasn't missed a beat since he's been back," Dollase said. "The Cigar Mile is a race we've wanted to run in, and he is ready to go. He'll just gallop into the race."
Jockey David Flores will fly in to ride Monterey Jazz in the Hill 'n' Dale Cigar Mile.
Also expected for the Hill 'n' Dale Cigar Mile are Arson Squad, Bribon (FR),
Harlem Rocker, Kodiak Kowboy, Storm Play, Tale of Ekati, Visionaire and Wanderin Boy.

Aqueduct Racetrack will play host to the New York State Lottery on Saturday and Sunday, November 29-20.
Operating in front of the NYRA Store on the second floor, clubhouse, the NYSL will have its Prize Wheel and Lottery PLINKO board set up for lucky patrons. Customers will get one spin for Lottery prizes each time they purchase $10 of Holiday instant tickets from the NYRA Store. Any customer who purchases $20 worth of Holiday instant tickets will receive one chip to drop into the PLINKO board..
A race named "New York Lottery's Holiday Cashword" will also be run during the weekend.
Gunnery Sergeant Alexander Mesa of the United States Marine Corps Reserves will be at Aqueduct on Saturday, December 6 from noon – 2 p.m. to represent USMCR's annual Toys for Tots drive. He will be on the first floor, clubhouse near the escalators, and will gladly accept new toys and cash donations.
For years, Major Chuck Kilbride represented the Marines at Aqueduct for the Toys for Tots drive. This year, he was deployed to Iraq.

Click for "Microbes After Hours" videos
When was the last time you washed your hands? Did you use soap? What have you done since you washed? Have you eaten, put your fingers in your mouth or touched someone else?
Observations in public restrooms have revealed that only about 68 percent of Americans wash up before leaving. Yet thorough hand washing is one of the best ways to prevent the spread of infections. There are millions of microbes on your hands. Most are naturally occurring and harmless. But some may be disease-causing germs. Hand washing with soap lifts off those microbes and rinses them away.
In this group activity, you and your friends or family members will test the effectiveness of different hand washing times, techniques and materials. Print out these pages and start scrubbing. Come back when you're done with the steps to test your newfound knowledge by answering the questions at the end of the experiment. (No fair peeking at the answers before you've done the activity!)
Note: You can do this whole experiment in one to two hours, depending on how many people take part.
1. Come up with scoring guide for hand cleanliness. Divide a piece of paper into four sections and trace an outline of a hand in each section. Use your pens or crayons to shade in your idea of completely dirty, very dirty, dirty and slightly dirty. Label the completely dirty hand as ++++, the very dirty hand as +++ and so on. Note that – stands for completely clean.
2. Cover your workspace with newspaper. Pick one person to be the hand washer and one person to be the timekeeper. The washer should put about one teaspoon of washable paint on the palm of one hand and spread it evenly over both hands, including the backs of the hands and the skin next to and under the fingernails. Allow hands to dry completely—about a minute or two. Close the paint.
3. Go to the sink where hand washer is blindfolded so the washer can't see his/her hands. Turn on warm water. Have the washer wash with just water for one second. After one second, have the timekeeper blot dry the washer's hands by very lightly touching the towel to the skin (don't rub!). Don't let the hand washer see his/her hands or give away any hints about how clean they are. Using the scoring guide you've created, record the cleanliness on a scoring chart. (See sample scoring chart below. This scoring chart should be labeled "Water Only")
4. Have the washer wash for four more seconds with just water. Again, lightly blot the washer's hands and record their cleanliness.
5. Have the washer wash for fifteen seconds more with water. Once again, blot and record the cleanliness.
6. Take the blindfold off and allow the washer to completely clean his/her hands. Put the blindfold back on and repeat steps 2 through 5, only this time have the washer use soap each time. Use a new scoring chart labeled "Water and Soap."
7. Change roles and repeat the activity until everyone taking part has had a turn being the handwasher. As much as possible, have the same person keep time and record cleanliness for each hand washer.
8. Display your results. Create two graphs showing the average cleanliness score at each time interval. One graph will show the results when handwashers used water only. The other graph will show results when they used water and soap. Put the time on horizontal line going across the page. Mark every number between 0 and 20 seconds. Put the average cleanliness scores on the vertical line.
This experiment is based on an activity developed by the National Association of Biology Teachers.

This article was first published on SailNet in April of 2000.
I suggest that you have several good pairs of dividers and plotters on board. Place the older ones in your emergency navigation kit, and use the newer ones for your daily plotting work. Several fine-tipped, soft-lead pencils are imperative. Use a No. 2 or a No. 3 pencil, since a No. 4 lead is too hard for use on a chart. A pencil sharpener is very handy to keep the pencil points sharp.
Using Dividers You should learn to manipulate the dividers with one hand while leaving the other hand free to work with the plotter, the pencil, or the chart. Most good navigation dividers have a tension screw that can be adjusted to prevent them from becoming either too loose or too stiff for easy use. Cheap dividers lack a tension screw and will soon become too loose for proper use. Adjust the points of the dividers to approximately equal length. A small screwdriver is required for these adjustments and should be a part of your navigation equipment. If you drop your dividers, the odds are good that the points will bend or break. Therefore, it is best to have replacement points on board.
Try to find a pair of dividers with long arms. The more distance you can cover with the dividers half open, the easier it will be to measure distances on the chart. For long distances between waypoints, you will need to pre-measure a convenient distance based on the scale of the chart (i.e. 1 nm, 2 nm, 5 nm, etc.) and step the dividers along the course line until you are close to the end waypoint. Count the number of times you step the dividers, and multiply the number of steps by the preset distance. Then add the remaining distance to the waypoint from the last measurement to obtain the total distance.
Another type of divider you should have is one with a pencil lead on one end in place of the normal steel point. This divider will allow you to draw arc distances from lights, plot danger circles around areas to avoid, and plot radar ranges. A fix formed by drawing in the arcs of multiple radar ranges provides a more accurate fix than a single range and bearing.
Plotting Tools You may wish to consider having several plotters on board that can be used together, since this will enable you to plot long legs on the chart. The plotter used by most navigators is a semicircular protractor with a long straight edge attached to it. A small hole at the base of these protractors indicates the center of the arc of the angular scale. Two complete scales, both graduated in degrees, cover the outer edge of the protractor. The angle is measured by placing the straight edge along the course line and reading the scale where the protractor crosses a meridian on the chart. The outer scale is used to read all angles between north through east to south, while the inner scale is used to read all angles between south through west to north. An abbreviated inner scale measures the angle from the vertical, and is usually used with the latitude lines to measure courses close to due south or due north when a longitude meridian is not readily available.
The US Power Squadron uses a square plastic plotter that is very easy to use. If you are a member of the USPS, or have taken any of its courses, you most likely have one of these plotters. Another plotter that I like has attached rollers that makes rolling the plotter to and from a nearby compass rose very easy. This plotter is much easier to use than the parallel rules on a smaller navigation table, but care must be taken that the angle doesn't slip while it is being rolled. The standard drafting triangles of 45 / 45 degrees, and of 30 / 60 degrees, are also very handy tools to have available at your navigation station.
Plotting Tips There are several tricks of the trade to use when drawing course lines. The most important one is to estimate the course direction before measuring it. By having a good idea of what the course should be before you place the plotter on the chart, you automatically avoid the "wrong way Corrigan" effect of reciprocal courses. With some practice you will soon be estimating your course lines to within 10 degrees. Do this by mentally dividing the chart into four quadrants with a north-south and an east-west line. Most charts are oriented with true north at the top, and the other cardinal directions at the bottom, the left, and the right. As an example of use, any course line proceeding toward the northeast quadrant will be between 0 and 90 degrees, and you can then divide this quadrant in half to estimate if the course line is between 0 and 45 degrees, or between 45 and 90 degrees. Dividing this area in half again will allow you to estimate the direction between 0 and 22 degrees, or 23 and 45 degrees. Do the same for courses in the other quadrants and if the course line is near a compass rose, use it to help mentally estimate the course.
There are a few tricks to drawing long course lines between waypoints when your plotter is too short and you lack a second one. You can fold the chart so that the crease falls between the waypoints and then draw the course line along the crease. If you object to such creases in the chart, you can roll an edge of the chart up to the waypoints and pencil a dashed course line along the temporary plot line. Then place the protractor or plotter along the dashed line in several steps to complete drawing the course line.
Once you have measured the course and distance between waypoints, record the true course on top of the course line near the departure waypoint, and place the distance directly below the course line underneath the course. Use a capital C for the course and a D for the distance as shown below. The course is always assumed to be a true direction unless otherwise annotated. Thus, the notation:
would indicate a course of 90 degrees true and a distance of 8.0 nm.
If you desire to use magnetic courses on your chart, apply the variation to the true course, and place a capital M after the course to indicate that it is a magnetic course, i.e. C 235M. If you also apply your deviation to the magnetic course, then you will have a compass course and should place a C after the course, i.e. C 237C.
The reason for this standardization is so that any navigator can take over your duties on a moment's notice and understand your work. The effort to standardize your navigation work is well worth your time and will mark you as a professional.

Ars Medica is a student organization under the guidance of faculty in the Department of Biology that organizes events to inform students of health-related career options and provides a venue for social interaction with other students with similar interests. Guest speakers are invited regularly to share their knowledge and experience of different medical careers.
In general medical schools do not have stringent undergraduate curriculum requirements for entry and they are looking for well rounded students with high GPAs in their four year undergraduate degree program. Premedical students frequently major in biology or chemistry but it is not essential to major in a science. However, to be successful in the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test) there are certain subjects that are advisable to take, including inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, biology, mathematics, physics, english composition and literature.
A major in biology at FMU provides a very sound foundation for meeting entrance requirements and we have many subjects that will interest future physicians such as anatomy, physiology, genetics, microbiology and cell biology.
Students planning a career in medicine must register with the premedical advisor, Dr. Vernon Bauer (843-661-1409), in the Department of Biology.
A major in biology at FMU prepares a student well for the entry requirements and to be successful if accepted into a graduate dental school.
The minimum requirements for dental school in South Carolina are:
Additional courses that are strongly recommended are:
Students planning a career in dentistry must register with predental advisors, Dr. Vernon Bauer (843-661-1409), in the Department of Biology.
The entry requirements for veterinary schools is variable and students need to be aware of their preferences in planning their undergraduate courses. There is no veterinary school in South Carolina however the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Georgia, under a cooperative agreement between the States, gives some preference for admission to residents of South Carolina.
Minimum required courses for the College of Veterinary Medicine at UG are:
All these course can be satisfied at FMU within the degree program of a major in biology. Some suggested areas of study, such as courses in animal nutrition, are not available at FMU but may be taken during summer at other universities.
Other veterinary schools may have specific requirements for additional courses and students should be aware of these differences and discuss them with their faculty advisor.
Students planning a career in veterinary medicine must register with preveterinary advisor, Dr. Tamatha Barbeau (843-661-4651), in the Department of Biology.
There are many health professions, such as anesthesia for nursing, cytotechnology, health profession education, occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech pathology to list a few, that require graduate degrees and are offered at Universities in South Carolina. A Bachelor of Science with a major in biology can satisfy the requirements for entry into these programs. Biology faculty advisors will assist students to arrange their curricula in order to meet individual graduate school requirements. Students can obtain information about different career opportunities from their faculty advisors, members of the Committee on Premedical Sciences, Office of Career Development at FMU and from involvement in Ars Medica.
For more information you can contact Dr. Vernon Bauer (843-661-1409), in the Department of Biology.

"We were looking for a sticker photo for my daughter's sorority recruitment cards. It needed to be small. The size was perfect, but I would've liked to have seen a few more designs. In particularly more "grown up" designs. The ones you currently offer have a baby/child theme."
"Excellent quality - make simple presents look more elegant and saves time as no card necessary for all of the nursery school party gifts."
"These are adorable! I stick them on everything my son takes to school. It is so easy to label all his belongings and feel confident that they will all return home:)"
"Ordered for my daughter's first birthday's pretty in pink party. It is very dainty and elegant. Loved it! Quality is great as always."
"These stickers are very beautiful for a little girl. I use them as envelope seals for my daughter's stationery. The design is so pretty and the soft colors are perfect. They are a bit smaller than I thought they'd be but still a good size."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Hmmm... I just have a hard time seeing what the rear is doing to cause a turn in that video. I see the dog plant the front for, bend its spine and head, bite the guy, and the rear end just follows along.
This is also a good example of why agility people have such a hard time finding a good agility dog from ring sport people.
Wildo -- in a minute I'll be taking the hounds to the back acres for an hour or so romp and I'll be looking and analysing .
Linda Shaw could give you the explanation in the form of levers and pulleys , bone and angles and muscle attachments.
I took your question to mean about turns and the changes in direction that a French ring or knpv dog would execute in an esquive as seen
I was thinking of natural quick changes in motion such as in trying to contain a sheep - dodging out of the way and into the sheep, turning those corners at the end of the border that the herding gsd is patrolling.
the moves you have with weave poles wouldn't have any natural place , so the question is a bit different .
Well, it's hard to know what pictures to post, because I'm still learning about the mechanics of a dog turning. To me, this picture looks like a fine example of a dog turning from the rear. However, I feel like it's maybe two frames passed where we might see what the front does:
I mean, when a four legged animal changes lead, isn't that initiated from the front legs? If so, in what way? Does the front just act as a post to push off of (in the new direction) while the rear takes care of powering through the turn? Or does the lead change actually come about from the rear?
Here's a photo of a nice tight jump wrap:
But I think that the angle might be a bit off to figure out what's happening mechanically speaking...
Here's another picture of a jump wrap:
I find this one pretty interesting. What's going on here? The dog is turning left, and yes we see the rear left foot lower then the rear right. So the dog actually pushed off of the rear left (likely). But check out the torsion in the body- I'm thinking this is influencing the turn- or at the very least preparing the body for landing from the turn.
Here's a photo where it sure seems like the front end is causing the turning, as Pimg's rear end is still on the other end of the weaves:
However, here's a photo where it seems like the rear end is causing the turning:
Then again, here's a photo where it seems like both the front and rear are making the turn:
And finally- here's a mashup from a series of three photos where Pimg catches and turns into the lure while coursing. I have no idea what leg is doing what here:
the ability to turn quickly depends more on broad muscular thighs and a strong hock joint.
had my dogs out goofing in a raging snow dump today just to watch them in motion making turns in their chasing each other.
they stop on the front, drop weight on the rear hand , bend at the stifle and change direction from the back end. The front has to have good angulation to extend and get itself out of the way to allow the rear to make that forward propulsion.
A chest should have good capacity for lung and heart . A GSD should not be stuffy or loaded in the front because that affects the length of muscle and cartilage bundles . Short bundles are for weight bearing not for flexibility. The shoulder and scapula placement affect the length of those muscle attachments.
The rear can't be straight stifled because that is for forward motion , not for turning because there is no bend .
The rear can't be too angulated because the longer the bones the longer the muscle , the longer the cartilage , like a worn spring , equally weakness and instability.
the chest can't be too narrow because the body comes to a rest on the front , and too narrow would not have the same stability in the stop , the turn wouldn't be as sharp .
the back and top line are not flat as some people like to ask for erroneously. the top line consists of 3 parts , withers , back and croup . The back should be straight . A saggy back is indicative of loose ligaments, a roach back will impede flexibility.
the hock has to be strong to push the body into a new direction
you have to look at the overall dog.
if you want to post some pictures so others can discuss ?
|Think of it this way. Tightened vs a linebacker. Both are conditioned. Tight ends run specific routes; linebackers are involved in every play. They are built very different but both are athletes.
Personally, I think turning in the air is a function of turning on the ground. If the setup is correct, if the dog is flexible and athletic, they should be able to perform a flying lead change. I know Pimg can do it nicely. Watch at 2:57 here:
Course of the week sequencing - YouTube
|In the air? On the ground...definitely the rear would be way more important I think.
|Yeah- by agile I meant having the ability to turn sharply.
What do you mean by "agile"? Collection and wrapping?
As far as the front end and agility, I'd say the shoulder angle and reach matter more than the chest measurements.
So where does the broad chest come from? Is this from the width of the sternum? Or perhaps from the angle that the ribs are attached?
Carmen- I thought for sure that YOU were the one who said "turning comes from the rear" and you've essentially confirmed that here. Is there any explanation for the fact that broad chested dogs don't tend to be as agile as narrow chested dogs? What function does the front end play in turning?

text: I am sorry but hearing everywhere how 'brave' Angelina Jolie is, is probably the most annoying piece of 'news' to have surfaced recently. Oh so brave to remove her breasts, given she can afford the best plastic surgeons who can then reconstruct them to probably look even better than before. Yes, it's still a pretty big thing psychologically because you are removing a part of your own body, and one associated with both your sexuality and motherhood. But I find that a lot of the praise, awe and adoration really is lacking perspective. It's like people praising 'philanthropists' who are spending 0.000001% of their huge incomes on charity.

There was a point in the past when poor people lacking any skills beyond the desire to work hard and become productive citizens was characteristic of those allowed to be accepted as immigrants, but that was then, and now we are at a different place in time. The British government will soon announce a new immigration system that is "points-based" and contains much tighter rules governing who can enter the country. A spokesperson for the Home Office said the objective is to manage migration "in the national interest" in order to strike the right balance between safeguarding the interests of the UK work force while enabling employers to draw upon talented people anywhere in the world.
Under the proposed points system, only those with skills that Britain can use will be allowed to enter. Border and IMmigration Minister Liam Byrne emphasized: "Our new points system means that British jobseekers get the first crack of the whip and that only the skilled immigrants we actualy need will be able to come." The system will not impact those entering from other European nations, but will effect how many area allowed to enter from the rest of the world.
Nations used to offer comfort to the afflicted and poor of the world, but now, one must have the right education in order to enter. One can only wonder if something will be lost even as something is gained by using points.

Ian Somerhalder Gossip
Ian Somerhalder gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Ian, Nina, Nikki
Bauer, Alberto E. Rodriguez/ Ethan Miller/ Rich Polk/ Getty
Duana's the name expert. And she's always on about how she prefers that siblings be named consistently. Like if you're going to call your son Brody, maybe a classic Esther for your daughter isn't a great fit. Something like that. I'm sure she has a better example. This post is not about naming siblings. Full Story
Nikki, Ian, and The Code
FameFlynet, AKM-GSI / Splash
Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder were out together this weekend at the Farmers Market looking very close. He had his face in her neck. He had his arms around her. At one point they hooked up with another woman and Ian appeared to be rather tactile with her too. It could be that they are tight, like friends tight, affectionate friends tight. Full Story

Is what fans of The Vampire Diaries might be angst-ing over today after watching Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder accept Best Chemistry or whatever they call it at the People's Choice Awards last night. She wouldn't admit it but Duana's probably given it a few minutes of her morning too. Full Story
Mr Timberlake thanks his wife in front of his ex
Christopher Polk/ Mark Davis/ Kevin Winter/ Getty
Mrs Timberlake did not join Justin Timberlake at the People's Choice Awards last night where he picked up three trophies. He did however take the time to thank her when he was on stage, calling her "beautiful" and then trying to make a joke about putting the dishes in the dishwasher. Full Story
Ian Somerhalder auditioning everywhere
There was a rumour circulating earlier this week that they'd be announcing who will play Christian Grey in the movie adaptation of Fifty Shades Of Grey at Comic-Con. What the f-ck in the sh-t? WHY would Fifty Shades Of Grey be at Comic-Con? For what it's worth, it's been denied. Here's Ian Somerhalder in Lake Como, Italy working his best Christian Grey in a fragrance shoot for Azzaro. Full Story
What Ian calls his ex?
Ian Somerhalder was in London last night. He was photographed outside the Groucho Club with an unidentified woman on his arm and a takeout bag in one hand. At least I think it's a takeout bag. And I am more curious about the contents of the takeout bag than I am about who she is. Or, specifically, about the takeout/doggy bag etiquette. Full Story
The love is over, the show goes on
Richie Buxo/ Splash, Ben Gabbe/ Kevin Mazur/ Getty
The CW upfronts happened in New York today. And the stars of one of the network's most important shows, The Vampire Diaries, turned up together, but not. It was confirmed last week that Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder have ended their relationship. Needless to say, there were no group shots. Full Story
Nina & Ian: it's over
Jamie McCarthy/ Getty
I suppose the signs were there -- Nina Dobrev and Julianne Hough seem to be inseparable lately, single girls enjoying their freedom, just in time for summer. Now US Weekly has confirmed exclusively that Nina, like Julianne before her, is indeed officially single -- after three years, it's over between her and Ian Somerhalder. Full Story

The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 21 recap Elena has her humanity back, and it took Matt, who had never hurt anyone, being hurt himself, for her to realize this was all a bit much and to stop with the temper tantrums. Sorry, but that's clearly what's up here – Damon was the first to call her a brat, but she's been cruising for it for a while. Full Story
Fun With No Extras

The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 18 recap Please shut up, Caroline. Please. Now that we've covered that entire storyline, this was kind of a super-fun episode.

The Vampire Diaries Season 4 Episode 16 recap Well, that was less than I expected. Am I wrong? After watching Elena's pain overwhelm her, then her badass walk out of the house she decided to torch, I thought the turning off of her feelings would mean she was unfeeling, but not necessarily numb to the point of …boredom.

I have a Savage Axis (22-250)
My first day out with it i fired 10 rounds and had 3 misfires. (primers were not touched)
I took it back to the dealer and they repaired it.
They said it was a loose firing pin or trigger pin? Not sure which i should have paid more attention!
I took it back into the field and fired 32 rounds. the 18th round was a misfire!
Other than that 1 misfire the gun was fine!
Should i make a big deal over that one misfire and take it back to the dealer again or should i simply use the gun and shut up?
how common is it to have one misfire in 32 rounds?
