    Leszek Gorski 29642 Constitution Ave, Big Pine Key FL 33043 As one of Constitution Ave residents, shearing the same canal as Strike zone/Capt. Hooks. I would like to share my opinion of Capt. Hooks proposal to open a fuel dock. I bought my home because this is a very nice neighborhood. I spoke with my realtor about Strike zone. She checked and assured me that there was no way that they could ever sell fuel to the public. There is a court order signed by the state of Florida/Monroe County/Strike zone/Capt hooks that will never allow the sale of fuel to the public. The canal is to small has no turning basin and no current flow. Captain Hooks came in behind everyone's back. He never consulted/share his plans with the residents with the community. There are laws set in place for this very reason. They some how were able to get permits get a 5000 gallon tank installed and started selling fuel to the public. There is a court order that states this can not be done. There has been a 70' seawall installed with a court order stating they can not install a seawall. The seawall was installed with no permit. No approval from the Army Corp of engineer. We all experienced how this affected all of us with extremely increasing boat traffic, noise, pollution. Personally I was very disappointed and upset with the whole situation. To my knowledge none of the legal aspects has changed. We would like to keep our clean water.

Interpretations of the Chinese May Fourth era often reduce the period to one of wholesale westernization and cultural self- repudiation. Euro-American notions of the self often reify ideologies of individuality, individualism, rationalism, evolution, and a “self-versus-society” dichotomy, viewing such positions as universal and applicable for judging decolonizing others. To interrogate this assumption, I examine the writing of Lu Xun and Xiao Hong, two May Fourth writers whose fictional characters present innovative, integrated, heterogeneous selves that transcend Western ii critical models. This “full spectrum of selves” sustains contradicting pulls of identity—the mental (the rational, the individual), the bodily (the survivalist, the affective), the cerebral (the moral), the social (the relational, the organismic), as well as the spiritual and the cosmic.

  • Brief Historical Explanation of the Revelation of St. John, Acording To
    BRIEF HISTORICAL EXPLANATION REVELATION OF ST JOHN, ACCORDING TO THE "HOM: APOCALYPTICvE" of the KEY. E. B. ELLIOTT, M.A. By H. CARRE TUCKER, C.B., late Bengal Civil Service. LONDON: JAMES NISBET & CO., 21 BERNERS STREET. M.dCCC.LXIII. BRIEF HISTORICAL EXPLANATION KEVELATION OF ST JOHN. EDINBURGH : PRINTED BY BALLANTYNE AND COMPANY, PAUL'S WORK. PKEFACE. The following Abridgment of Mr Elliott's work was planned when I was Governor-General's Agent and Commissioner of Benares, as one of a series of books published in India for the use of schools and native Christians, both in English and the vernaculars. It appeared to me that it was impossible for natives to peruse with understanding this important portion of God's Word, upon the reading, hearing, and keeping of which so special a blessing is promised, (Kev. i. 3, xxii. 7,) without some such brief and cheap epitome of the corresponding history, according to the best expositors. Assisted by Archdeacon Pratt's Para phrase, I have endeavoured just to take the cream of Mr Elliott's interpretation, so as to shew the mar vellous agreement between the prophecy and a suc cession of historical events, from the time when the vision took place, (Rev. i 19,) down to the present era. The knowledge of these true historical events, , VI PREFACE. and the remarks founded thereupon, will remain use ful, even should they not be those which the inspired penman had specially in view, and the commentator be consequently mistaken in his application of them to the prophecy. The Abridgment, interrupted by the Mutiny, is now completed and printed in English, in the hope that it may prove useful to some who cannot afford a more expensive explanation ; and also with a view to the preparation of counterparts in Hindustanee, Bengalee, Tamil, and other Indian languages, as God may enable me.

  • Out of Sorts? Remedies for Theories of Object
    Out of Sorts? Some Remedies for Theories of Object Concepts: A Reply to Rhemtulla and Xu Sergey V. Blok University of Texas at Austin George E. Newman Yale University Lance J. Rips Northwestern University Psychological Review, in press. Out of Sorts? / 2 Abstract Concepts of individual objects (e.g., a favorite chair or pet) include knowledge that allows people to identify these objects, sometimes after long stretches of time. In an earlier article, we set out experimental findings and mathematical modeling to support the view that judgments of identity depend on people’s beliefs about the causal connections that unite an object’s earlier and later stages. In this article, we examine Rhemtulla and Xu’s (in press) critique of the causal theory. We argue that Rhemtulla and Xu’s alternative sortal proposal is not a necessary part of identity judgments, is internally inconsistent, leads to conflicts with current theories of categories, and encounters problems explaining empirical dissociations. Previous evidence also suggests that causal factors dominate spatiotemporal continuity and perceptual similarity in direct tests. We conclude that the causal theory provides the only existing account consistent with current evidence. Keywords: Concepts Causation Sortals Object concepts Out of Sorts? / 3 Out of Sorts? Some Remedies for Theories of Object Concepts: A Reply to Rhemtulla and Xu Many objects persist over stretches of time too long for us to track perceptually. If you attend your thirtieth high school reunion, you’re bound to run into classmates like Fred Lugbagg whom you haven’t encountered since graduation and whose perceptual appearance is no more similar to the 18-year- old Lugbagg than is the appearance of most of the other males at the reunion.

It explores existentialist tenets in feminist ethics and care ethics and reclaims existentialism as a resourceful theory in addressing global ethical issues. My dissertation moves beyond the once prevalent paradigm that feminist ethics should be devoid of any traditional ethical theories and it shows that an existential phenomenological ethics can complement feminist ethics in a productive way. The first chapter, introduces and discusses an existentialist notion of freedom based on Simone de Beauvoir and Jean Paul Sartre’s writings. In order to establish that human beings are metaphysically free, I explain notions of in-itself, for-itself, transcendence, immanence, facticity, and bad faith which are the basic notions of an existentialist notion of freedom.
