Definition of America Outro:

"This feeling of embarrassment This shyness, this bashfulness... If you take that out of the people Then these people will do whatever they want to do And that is the very definition of America A people who have no shame And therefore, they do whatever they want to do"

attributed to Imam Zaid Shakir, an Islamic scholar and co-founder of Zaytuna College. He made this statement during a lecture, emphasizing the importance of modesty and the consequences of its absence in society

eevole1: Why Prostitution Should Be Legal

Having engaged in an Economist debate a while back, I jotted down a bunch of notes and posted them on my Blogger/Blogspot (owned by Google) blog. It was then deleted for not following their rules, even though it did, as I am a trained sex ed peer counselor. I am reposting it here (the following images were embedded in the original tired & world): Recently, the Economist hosted a debate on the…

Stray cat breaks into Lynx’s enclosure at zoo

(Source)

[cathartidae]

while the stray cat story may have circulated in 2020 and 2022, this story is actually from the Leningrad Zoo in 2014. (here's the original russian article as well.)

these two felines were introduced at 6 weeks old in order to give more enrichment for the lynx and for education purposes, however they got along fantastically from the start and were eventually moved to permanently live with one another.

a much less exciting story, but a much cuter one as well.

"Our study shows that dialing up your protein intake in pursuit of better metabolic health is not a panacea. You could be doing real damage to your arteries," said senior and co-corresponding author Babak Razani, M.D., Ph.D., professor of cardiology at Pitt. "Our hope is that this research starts a conversation about ways of modifying diets in a precise manner that can influence body function at a molecular level and dampen disease risks." The study, which combined small human trials with experiments in mice and cells in a Petri dish, showed that consuming over 22% of dietary calories from protein can lead to increased activation of immune cells that play a role in atherosclerotic plaque formation, driving the disease risk. Furthermore, the scientists showed that one amino acid - leucine - seems to have a disproportionate role in driving the pathological pathways linked to atherosclerosis, or stiff, hardened arteries.

“Proponents of DEI instruction make the bold claim that ‘it works.’ That is, they claim that it’s effective in changing behaviour toward the positive. That claim is not supported by the empirical evidence. There’s clear empirical evidence that certain aspects of DEI instruction lead to greater prejudice and even harm. (..) DEI instruction is now aggressively entrenched at all levels of our educational system from kindergarten up to university. Core concepts of the instruction such as ‘white privilege’ and ‘implicit bias’ are promoted as verified truths. But the research shows that these concepts are not rooted in solid, empirical evidence. Ironically, the public organizations we have charged with providing factual knowledge are, on this front, doing the opposite.” In a report published by the Aristotle Foundation for Public Policy , Laurier Professor David Haskell reviewed seven studies from leading scientific journals, including some meta-analyses that looked at hundreds of experiments.

Anyone figure out how to get this running in Android Studio? Eclipse seems dead... · Issue #23 · jurihock/voicesmith
