JCE will retain the copyright for the full article, but the Pearls & Pitfalls themselves can be posted on ASBH website and used by others (with appropriate citation). Timing of the publication has not yet been established. Joe mentioned the statement in the current manuscript that readers can provide feedback about the paper on the ASBH website. Kayhan mentioned that ASBH’s website is currently undergoing revision, and will check with Chris Welber at AMC regarding the ability to have visitors post feedback on a specific location of the website. The manuscript will be modified accordingly before publication to match website capacity. Update from Board The Board is asking that CECA submit the Request for Proposals that was previously put on hold pending the Quality Attestation efforts underway. The Board has decided to pursue both activities in parallel. Anita will circulate the current RFP draft to CECA members to identify a process for completing this and submitting to the Board. The Board is developing operating standards for ASBH standing committees, which will impact CECA’s recent discussion about term limits and member rotation.

  • The Bakhtin Circle and Ancient Narrative, 297–319 298 CHRISTINE MITCHELL in Reading Both the Cyropaedia and 1–2 Chronicles
    Bakhtin and the Ideal Ruler in 1–2 Chronicles and the Cyropaedia CHRISTINE MITCHELL St. Andrew’s College Saskatoon, Canada Introduction When we turn to a study of ancient Hebrew narrative, most readers prefer the engaging and artful narratives of Samuel and Kings to the seemingly plod- ding and pedantic narrative of Chronicles. Recently, however, Chronicles has enjoyed a minor surge of interest. As plodding and pedantic as Chroni- cles may be, perhaps as boring as Chronicles may be, it is plodding, pedan- tic, and boring for interesting reasons. It may be instructive to compare the narrative of Chronicles to the narrative of Xenophon’s Cyropaedia, also known as ‘one of the most tedious books to have survived classical antiq- uity’ (Gera 1993, vii). In this essay, I propose to do exactly that. However, both Chronicles and the Cyropaedia are large, sprawling works, composed of a number of themes and topics. In this essay, therefore, I will limit myself to an examination of the intertextual construction of the figure of the ideal ruler in both books. I will do so, using a theory of intertex- tuality based on Bakhtin’s notion of the dialogic. I will also come to certain conclusions about the genre of both works, an understanding of ‘political philosophy’ as a genre, also based on Bakhtin’s ideas about genre. Further- more, in order to fully understand the text of Chronicles, especially, I will be using the work of Yuri Lotman on textuality. Bakhtin, dialogism and genre In this essay, it is not my intention to provide a roadmap of dialogism or genre in Bakhtin’s thought; in any case, there are plenty of others who have taken on that task.

    UNITED STATES BANKRUPTCY COURT NORTHERN DISTRICT OF GEORGIA ATLANTA DIVISION _______________________________________à IN RE: CASE NO. 04-92943 Edith Christine Mitchell, CHAPTER 7 Debtor. JUDGE MASSEY _______________________________________à IndyMac Bank, F.S.B., Plaintiff, v. ADVERSARY NO. 04-6555 Edith Christine Mitchell, Defendant. _______________________________________à ORDER DENYING MOTION FOR SUMMARY JUDGMENT Defendant Edith Mitchell, who is the Debtor in this Chapter 7 case, owes Plaintiff IndyMac Bank, F.S.B. a debt for a residential construction loan. Plaintiff seeks a determination that this debt is nondischargeable pursuant to three subsections of section 523 of the Bankruptcy Code: 523(a)(2)(A), 523(a)(2)(B), and 523(a)(6). Plaintiff moves for summary judgment on all claims. Pursuant to Fed. R. Civ. P. 56(c), made applicable by Fed. R. Bankr. P. 7056, a party moving for summary judgment prevails if "the pleadings, depositions, answers to interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any, show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law." Celotex Corp. v. Catrett, 477 U.S. 317, 322 (1986). The moving party carries the initial burden of proof and must establish that no genuine factual issue exists. Celotex, 477 U.S. at 323; Clark v. Coats & Clark, Inc., 929 F.2d 604, 608 (11th Cir. 1991). The moving party must point to the pleadings, discovery responses or supporting affidavits which tend to show the absence of a genuine issue of material fact. Celotex, 477 U.S. at 323. The court will construe the evidence in the light most favorable to the non-moving party.

  • 16 February 2021
    24 May 2021 Dear President Biden, Our congratulations on your inauguration as our forty‐sixth President of the United States. Our association includes the Directors of the major bioethics centers in the United States. We applaud your Memorandum on Restoring Trust in Government Through Scientific Integrity and Evidence‐Based Policymaking. In support of this commitment to restoring trust in science, we believe it is crucial that your administration reconstitute the Presidential Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues, or a similar body, to continue working on the thorny ethical challenges that confront our nation and its health care system. Our association collectively represents the vast majority of bioethics professionals who examine the ethical implications of questions such as rationing and fair allocation of resources, including during the COVID epidemic; guidelines for the use of advanced biotechnologies; clinician‐patient relationships; the beginning and end of life; social justice in health care; and so on. Past commissions, including the one organized by the Obama Administration, have created landmark resources for use not only by the bioethics profession but by medicine as a whole and by private industry working on medicine and biotechnology. The resources are kept on active websites that are commonly used by those needing guidance on difficult bioethical issues. We have appended a list of the most important federal bioethics commissions, and some of their contributions, to this letter. After 33 years of commissions serving various administrations and the nation, the commission was disbanded in January 2017. We strongly believe in the need to reconstitute such a commission to address some of the new and challenging issues that confront us today.

    NNEC 5th NATIONAL NURSING ETHICS CONFERENCE 25th Anniversary Reimagining Nursing from the Inside Out An Invitation to Reflect, Celebrate, Re-Imagine, and Transform March 7-9, 2018 UCLA Luskin Conference Center Los Angeles, CA www.ethicsofcaring.org 1 Welcome & Description Welcome to Los Angeles! Welcome to the 5th NNEC As we gather in Los Angeles for the 5th National Nursing Ethics Conference, we will also be celebrating Ethics of Caring’s® 25th anniversary and its many years of providing nursing ethics education. Your experience the next few days will stand on that foundation – a belief that clinical work requires developing an expertise in recognizing and responding to the moral questions that arise in healthcare. We are privileged to be able to do this together in com- munity, to collectively learn from each other and creatively develop practical approaches to the ethical challenges we face. The theme this year, “Reimagining Nursing from the Inside Out” speaks to the ethical practices of reflection and as- sessment, going within ourselves and our profession to understand our strengths and our needs. Then we can find ways to integrate our core values and innovatively evolve a personal and collective future for nursing that will stretch us to transform our practices, moral spaces, and work environments. We look forward to our time together with you. May the conference be restorative for each of you, so that you return to your practice with the gift of resiliency. Warm regards, Katherine Brown-Saltzman, MA, RN Heather Fitzgerald, MS, RN Co-director, UCLA Health Ethics Center Clinical Nurse Ethicist President, Ethics of Caring© Children’s Hospital Colorado Co-Chair, NNEC 2017 Planning Committee Co-Chair, NNEC 2017 Planning Committee Conference Description Reimagining Nursing from the Inside Out is the theme for the 5th Ethics of Caring® National Nursing Ethics Conference (NNEC).

The “14-day rule” prohibits in vitro experimentation on embryos beyond fourteen days post fertilization. This rule, which has been debated since its inception, has long-stood as a bright line limitation on embryonic research around the world. Practically, the scientific community did not challenge the rule because scientists had been unable to grow embryos in vitro up to fourteen days. In May 2016, however, a lab in the United States and another in the United Kingdom sustained the embryo until 13 days post-fertilization, at which point they terminated research because of the “14-day rule”.
