Violence and Diet

We have talked before about the link between nutrition and violence. The evidence has continued to mount and I was pleased to see that the Wellcome Trust is funding trials in three British prisons to investigate the link between nutrition and behavior. This is a placebo study that will examine which nutrients are most important and at what dosage. Volunteers from three young offenders institutions housing male prisoners aged 16 to 21 will take nutritional supplements in addition to thei

Why DC’s Gun Law Is Unconstitutional

Why DC’s Gun Law Is Unconstitutional Posted by Warner Todd Huston on Saturday, February 23, 2008 4:05:28 PM David E. Young has written a fantastic, historical treatment of why a recent amicus brief in favor of the D.C. gun ban is way off base as well as based on bad historical research. Filed by &quotfifteen professional academic historians,&quot the piece makes all sorts of missteps and excludes fact all too often. These so-called historians are just plain wrong so often that one gets the feeling

Who Gives Agencies Like The FBI, NSA, DHS And CIA The Covert Ability To Illegally Spy On Americans? Illuminati Run Groups Like The CFR

The following article was written during the Clinton Administration. It is ironic that the Democrats are in many cases seen as the saviors of the American people when the Republicans are seen as their demonic counterparts. The truth is that both the Democrats and the Republicans are essentially two different sides of the same snake. Or as Mike Ruppert once said, look at one group as if they were the Columbos and the other as if they were they were Genoveses, and you will have a better idea of ho

A Few Thoughts on Science and Politics

Last month, the Union of Concerned Scientists released a document detailing the steps Congress and the next President must take to ???establish conditions that would enable federal scientists to produce the scientific knowledge that is needed by a government dedicated to the public good.??? Amen. Though the outrages of the Bush Administration have been many, perhaps no wrong has been so egregious as the Administration??s active hostility to and suppression of science.

The Souls of Black Girls

Filmmaker Daphne Valerius takes a stark look at the relationship between media images and the self-esteem of African American women in her moving documentary The Souls of Black Girls. Here, she shares the purpose behind her passion, and thoughts on what it takes for us all to start loving what we see in the mirror. Q: What made you name your film, The Souls of Black Girls?

Has Georgetown Become DHIMMI U ?

Prince Alwaleed bin Talal is a one man Arab lobby who uses his power and money in attempt to dhimmify the United States. In November of 2005, Fox’s O’Reilly showed live footage of the French Intifada as it raged in Paris. According to WorldNetDaily, Saudi billionaire Prince al-Waleed bin Talal, aka Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal Bin AbdulAziz AlSaud, who owns 5-6% of the Fox News Channel, personally called Rupert Murdoch and asked him to change the offensive but accurate caption: &quotMuslim Riots&quot

Wikipedia and Robert Spencer

Jihad Watch reader James asked me this morning if I had seen my Wikipedia bio lately, so I went over there to take a look. Some time ago I called it &quotridiculous,&quot but it is worse than that: it is relentlessly biased, and the negative spin is thoroughgoing. Several people have strongly advised me to set the record straight, at least with the bio as it stands now, since people continue to use Wikipedia as a research tool. So here goes. Robert Bruce Spencer born 1962 is a Catholic American writ

Are you a locavore? Greg Laden’s Blog

I only heard this term recently, as one of my students is beginning a research project on the topic. The idea, of course, is that the more food you eat from local sources, the better your impact, or lack there of, on the environment. Well, I had heard of this concept before, but not that particular term. &quotBuying local is like a hippie movement of 2008, but is it really a good use of a college graduate’s time,&quot asked food science professor Joe Regenstein.

Best Practices Practice

Not going to get a perfect rez when this many people are on the island, not on my puter anyway, but good enough for government work. Went to an NGO &quotbest practices&quot panel held on the Anshe-supported NGO island — of course, I reach for my gun every time I hear that hackneyed development-speak phrase &quotbest practices,&quot but still hope beats eternal… About 90 avatars or so comfortably packed the sim, and the panel spoke, but not in Voice, they were audio from somewhere.

Teaching Philosophy and Research

I am in the process of drafting a new teaching statement, but same philosphy I figure to rework this a number of times. I have finished 1/3 of it, as noted below. I am adding this to my teaching and research page on my webpage. Thoughts? My teaching philosophy is shaped by the tenets of Marxism, Pragmatism, and Reconstruction-ism. It was my reading of Cornel West??s and W.E.B. Du Bois??s works as a high school, undergraduate, and graduate student that shaped my sense of intellectual and practi
