Smith ,*Biographies of Authors 201 4 Foreword kith the United States celebrating its 200th birthday and AAHPER preparing for its 100th anniversary in less than 10 years, it is a time for 1-)oking to the past. Knowledge of our historical development gives assurance and confidence for fulfilling our responsibilities in the present and inspiration and motivation for better performance in the future. Some years ago, farseeing officers in the Alliance began preparation for this time of interest in the past. In 1970, the AAHPER Board of Directors approved the proposal from Elwood C. Davis, as AAHPER archivist, to "tape the leaders," and Davis, together with Bruce Bennett, as AAHPER historian, began the task of making permanent records of ideas presented by the topmost leaders of the HPER profession. The intent was to preserve the spoken word of those persons who had been influential in shaping the profession of HPER over the years. In providing support for the project, the Board expressed its interest in providing the profession with "vocal-written records of the ideas, feelings, beliefs, and evaluations of contemporary distinguished leaders." They planned for a continuing project, with original tapes and transcriptions to be stored by AAHPER and duplicates to be made available to researchers, scholars, and all interested persons. The work that has already been done in the Tape the Leaders Project is thus available to make possible this special volume, offered during the Bicentennial year. The first group selected for taping and for publication are the recipients of the Luther Halsey Gulick Award, the highest honor accorded by AAHPER to its members. The Gulick Award, for distinguished service in health education, physical education, and recreation, preserves the memory of one of the profession's great early leaders. Gulick, who served as president of the American Physical Education Association from 1904 to 1908, was director of physical education 5 5 I s at Springfield College and director of physical education for the Greater New York City public schools; he was instrumental in the founding of the Camp Fire Girls, Boy Scouts of America, and the Playground Association of America (today's National Recreation and Park Association). His best known work, Philosophy of Play, is one of the foundations of the profession. The award given in his name was first bestowed in 1923, although responsibility for selecting the recipient was turr.ed over to AAHPER only in 1944. Qualifications state that the nominees, who must be AAHPER members, shall be "clearly outstanding," shall "examplify the best in service, research, teaching, or administration and be recognized by the membership for noteworthy leadership," and shall be persons "whose life arid cqntributions have inspired youth to live vigorously, courageously, and freely as 'Citizens in a free society." Awardees are most frequently chosen from nominees who are 40 years of age or over and Honor Fellows of AAHPER. The 38 people who have received the award to date thus represent the very top level of the HPER profession. All Gulick Award winners are not included in this book. Not all have been taped to date, and others will be included in future volumes of this series. The award recipients were asked to express their thoughts and beliefs regarding a self-selected topic of considerable importance as their message to contemporaries and to posterity. Some decided to read portions of speeches which they considered representative of their philosophy; some spoke extemporaneously about what seemed most important to them in reflecting on their careers. In the case of the deceased recipients, a representative speech or published article was selected for reading into the tape. The material published in this volume is presented as directly transcribed frrrn the audiotapes; each person's ideas appear as their own words and have not been edited, condensecl, or excerpted. The original audiotape and transcriptions are stored in the Archives and Reyords Center of the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, and(Recreation. Now housed in the National Education Center in Washington, D.C., the Archives will in the future be a significant part of the proposed HPER building to be built on the land owned by AAHPER in the Center for Educational Associations in Reston, Virginia. The Alliance is proud to make available these essays from outstanding leaders of the profession. Appreciation is acknowledged to Davis and Benn for instituting the Tape the Leader Project; to Patricia Patters-a:Tor. con- tinuing the protect; to j. Tillman Hall, who processed and 'refined the tapes; and to Kathleen Seacord, who made the transcriptions used in this volume. , George F. Anderson Executive Director 6 6 Social Values andfitness .111 JESSEFEIRING WILLIAMS . Gentlemen of the fraternity, it is a pleasure for me to be here tonight. I have taken as my subject this evening, the phrase ,"social values and fitness" because this is a time of much talk about fitness on the one hand and it is a great problem we face when we talk about social values. The point is often made that words are inadequate things failing to reveal clearly and actively any ideas except the most simple. I suppose that is what a.zen means when he says "words fail me" and yet words are my tools this evening because I am sure you do not expect me to give a demonstration of fitness. Many years ago I had great delight in teaching young men how to run and jump and throw and wrestle and even do rhythmic movements. Some of you gentlemen will doubt the latter under the impression that a mazurka was as mysterious to me then as the waltz is to you now. Of course the concept "social values" suggests broad or worthy goals, the set of goals that all teachers have hoped to realize.

The Way of All Flesh Chapter I When I was a small boy at the beginning of the century I remember an old man who wore knee-breeches and worsted stockings, and who used to hobble about the street of our village with the help of a stick. He must have been getting on for eighty in the year 1807, earlier than which date I suppose I can hardly remember him, for I was born in 1802. A few white locks hung about his ears, his shoulders were bent and his knees feeble, but he was still hale, and was much respected in our little world of Paleham. His name was Pontifex. His wife was said to be his master; I have been told she brought him a little money, but it cannot have been much. She was a tall, square-shouldered person (I have heard my father call her a Gothic woman) who had insisted on being married to Mr Pontifex when he was young and too good-natured to say nay to any woman who wooed him. The pair had lived not unhappily together, for Mr Pontifex’s temper was easy and he soon learned to bow before his wife’s more stormy moods. Mr Pontifex was a carpenter by trade; he was also at one time parish clerk; when I remember him, however, he had so far risen in life as to be no longer compelled to 2 of 736 The Way of All Flesh work with his own hands.

It's time to get going again. We're about to begin a journey that will take us from the infinitesimal to the infinite, from the dawn of time to the distant future. We'll explore galaxies and suns and worlds, surf the gravity waves of space-time, encounter beings that live in fire and ice, explore the planets of stars that never die, discover atoms as massive as suns and universes smaller than atoms.

  • Sophie's World
    Sophie’s World Jostien Gaarder Reviews: More praise for the international bestseller that has become “Europe’s oddball literary sensation of the decade” (New York Newsday) “A page-turner.” —Entertainment Weekly “First, think of a beginner’s guide to philosophy, written by a schoolteacher ... Next, imagine a fantasy novel— something like a modern-day version of Through the Looking Glass. Meld these disparate genres, and what do you get? Well, what you get is an improbable international bestseller ... a runaway hit... [a] tour deforce.” —Time “Compelling.” —Los Angeles Times “Its depth of learning, its intelligence and its totally original conception give it enormous magnetic appeal ... To be fully human, and to feel our continuity with 3,000 years of philosophical inquiry, we need to put ourselves in Sophie’s world.” —Boston Sunday Globe “Involving and often humorous.” —USA Today “In the adroit hands of Jostein Gaarder, the whole sweep of three millennia of Western philosophy is rendered as lively as a gossip column ... Literary sorcery of the first rank.” —Fort Worth Star-Telegram “A comprehensive history of Western philosophy as recounted to a 14-year-old Norwegian schoolgirl... The book will serve as a first-rate introduction to anyone who never took an introductory philosophy course, and as a pleasant refresher for those who have and have forgotten most of it... [Sophie’s mother] is a marvelous comic foil.” —Newsweek “Terrifically entertaining and imaginative ... I’ll read Sophie’s World again.” — Daily Mail “What is admirable in the novel is the utter unpretentious-ness of the philosophical lessons, the plain and workmanlike prose which manages to deliver Western philosophy in accounts that are crystal clear.

  • 1 'But by Blood No Wolf Am I': Language and Agency, Instinct And
    1 ‘But by blood no wolf am I’: Language and Agency, Instinct and Essence – Transcending Antinomies in Maggie Stiefvater’s Shiver series The sympathetic vampire is now a familiar creature. Stephenie Mayer’s Twilight (2005) has made us aware of the attraction of radical otherness, where the mysterious non-humanity of the love object becomes a powerful source of desire rather than terror alone.1 Other paranormal species have also become somewhat domesticated and are now lovers rather than monstrous Others, resulting in the new hybridised genre of paranormal romance, where Gothic horror couples with romantic fiction.2 Each species of monster (whether vampire, shapeshifter, faerie, angel, or zombie) lends itself to different domains of enquiry. The shapeshifter, especially the werewolf, is particularly useful as an instrument for exploring the boundaries of humanity and animality, culture and nature. Werewolves are far more tied to animality and the physiological than the present-day vampire, despite the latter’s often compulsive blood-lust.3 The werewolf, too, is bound to a hierarchical pack society; this group membership necessarily evokes a different perspective on the social than the usually solitary vampire. Of course, the blurring of the boundary between animal and human recurs throughout literature. Yet wolves in particular have long played a versatile role in exploring these demarcations. Wolves are ambiguously social animals yet savage outsiders, predators on the community, and disruptors of the pastoral (with all the additional allegorical weight that arrives with Christianity). They are also founders and nurturers of culture, raising Romulus and Remus, or fostering into sociality those abandoned feral children that so fascinated Enlightenment thinkers as they probed into the origins of society and language.4 However, one must be careful not to take the shapeshifter as some timeless archetype; perspectives on our relationship with nature and animality shift dramatically and readings of werewolf texts must be particularised and placed into context.

  • Our Gifts a Proof of World Brotherhood
    »») GENERAL CHURCH PAPER OF THE SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTISTS . (- CG Our Gifts a Proof of World Brotherhood A Message From the Treasurer of the General Conference By W. E. NELSON - . N ALL the teachings of Jesus there is one thread that runs throughout and that is the universal brotherhood of mankind. His was a world-wide I work. He came to seek and save the lost, not of Palestine only but of the whole human race. His commission, or assignment of work, to His followers was, Go into all the world and make Christians of all who will listen. When that task is completed, then the second coming of Christ will take place. The great motive power in the proclamation of the gospel, the good news of salvation, is the presence of Christ with His followers as represented by the Holy Spirit, but, since creation, in the work of God He has always used material things as well as His Spirit to accomplish His purposes. During His first advent, He fed the thousands by the sea and, ministered to the physical needs of the people in a very definite way. He healed the sick, the halt, the lame, and the blind, and when He went away He gaVe to every, man his work. There are no exceptions recorded. In the organization of the Great Advent Movement this principle must be kept in mind. All. are to share in the responsibility of spreading the glad tidings of Jesus' second coming. The giving and gathering of money is part of the gospel work, and where done according to God's plan is as truly a spiritual work as any other part of the Advent Movement, and all can share in this phase of the message.
