Nick Humphrey, Marcel Kinsbourne, and I formed with Ray a group of four disparate thinkers about consciousness back around 1986, and, usually meeting at Ray’s house, we did our best to understand each other and help each other clarify the various difficult ideas we were trying to pin down. Ray’s book was one of our first topics, and while it definitely advanced our thinking on various lines, I now have to admit that we didn’t see the importance of much that was expressed therein. -
200115 SFRA Course
Security-related procedures and requirements are a fact of life for today's pilots, especially those who operate in the Washington, DC metropolitan area Special Flight Rules Area (SFRA) and the DC Flight Restricted Zone (FRZ). Although the rules may sound intimidating, they are not difficult. This course is intended to provide the information you need to fly safely, correctly, and confidently in this airspace. 1 This slide provides a summary of the changes made since the last version of this course. The only changes for this edition are new procedures for filing flight plans for the Flight Restricted Zone, or FRZ. As stated in the regulatory review section, 14 CFR 91.161 requires this training for pilots flying under visual flight rules (VFR) within a 60 nm radius of the Washington DC VOR/DME. This training is a one-time-only requirement, but it is a good idea to periodically review the material for updates and to refresh your knowledge. You should print the certificate of training completion. You do not have to carry it with you, but you must provide it within a reasonable period of time if requested. Now, let’s get started. 2 After the September 11 terrorist attacks, security authorities established the Washington DC Air Defense Identification Zone – the ADIZ – and the Flight Restricted Zone – the FRZ – to protect the nation’s capital. The ADIZ and the FRZ were established and operated via temporary flight restriction, or TFR, until the FAA developed a final rule that took effect on February 17, 2009. That rule codified the ADIZ and the FRZ in 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 93 as the DC Special Flight Rules Area (SFRA). -

Talking Through the Wire Jennifer Fremlin, Huntingdon College
Talking Through the Wire Jennifer Fremlin, Huntingdon College I am at something of a critical loss when it comes to discussing The Wire. As a feminist media theorist especially interested in filmic representations of race and gender, I am pretty well trained at deconstructing hegemonic instantiations of the privileging of whiteness in movies and on t.v., especially those that seem to offer themselves as radical critiques but end up simply reinscribing familiar hierarchies. Popular culture—hit t.v. programs, award-winning movies, Hollywood stars—offers an endless supply of material on which to hone my knife. This is mostly shooting fish in a barrel, instead of any great testament to my mad skills. But The Wire, HBO’s critically acclaimed yet apparently largely unwatched series, leaves me a bit flummoxed. The problem is, first, that I loved watching it, reveling in its intricate, almost Shakespearian or Dickensian handling of interwoven plots and themes of power and corruption at all levels: economic, political, juridical, educational, racial, journalistic and sexual. Characters are complex and multidimensional, revealed in their working and personal lives to be neither good or bad, but some of both, often at the same moment, or neither, just like the rest of us. They sometimes try to do the right thing, even if by dubious means, or make more money, or get laid, or help others, but just as often they fuck up, and their motives are a nice messy stew of righteousness and self-serving. The show solicits me as a smart viewer, which on the one hand I critically distrust, but on the other hand flatters me to no end. -
