"Colonization Is Alive & Well" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-10-13 05:42:05

Yesterday my daughter told me she wanted blonde hair. I was not appalled she's transitioning into her first pre-dominantly white private school where she is only one of two African American children. Luckily she's been immersed in "blackness" almost too much so I can understand her curiosity with what is appearing foreign. The good news is her speech which was becoming Ghetto fab after a stint in the YMCA Summer school program is evolving. No more "Pop. Lock and Drop It" songs are being sung when I pick her up though her singing Hanna Montana isn't necessarily my first choice. In assessing her comments. I'm realizing one thing; either my children will be educated in private schools where they run the risk of losing their racial identity or attend inferior public schools which will have them ultimately ill prepared for college.

"Rev. Robert Finley: Founder of the American Colonization Society" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-26 15:05:23

Robert Finley was born in 1772 in Princeton. New Jersey the son of James Finley (b. 1737). The elder Finley a native of Glasgow Scotland immigrated to New Jersey in 1769 at the urging of his friend. Rev. John Witherspoon who a year earlier was named president of the College of New Jersey later known as Princeton University. Finley then established himself as a weaver and was an elder in the local Presbyterian perform. His son. Robert began his educational go under the tutelage of Rev. Ashbel Green who eventually became president of Princeton College. A student who excelled in his studies in Greek. Latin and other subjects in the humanities. Finley was admitted at the age of eleven to Princeton College and was awarded his Bachelor of Arts degree at the age of fifteen in 1787. Shortly after his graduation. Finley at the suggestion of Dr. Witherspoon accepted a teaching position in the local grammar educate. After a strenuous start mainly caused by discipline problems with students in the grammar educate who were older than their instructor. Finley overcame the situation through the staunch support of his instruct. Dr. Witherspoon. Shortly after his tenure at the grammar school in Princeton. Finley was to head a seminary in Maryland which never came to fruition since the academy had been destroyed by fire. Soon thereafter he returned to New Jersey and was hired to teach at the academy in Allentown. New Jersey. During his measure in Allentown. Finley was offered the prospect of employment as a teacher in Charleston. South Carolina which he accepted. It was in dance that Finley slowly realized that his calling was to the service of God and returned to Princeton in 1792 where he began his study of theology under the supervision of Dr. Witherspoon. To acquire his living while pursuing his studies. Finley taught at the grammar educate in Princeton where he began his teaching go a few years earlier. On September 16. 1794. Finley’s efforts were rewarded when he was licensed to lecture the gospel by the Presbytery of New Brunswick. In April 1795 the congregation in Basking continue. New Jersey offered the pastorate to Finley which he accepted. On June 17. 1795. Rev. Robert Finley was ordained pastor of the congregation where he would remain for twenty-two years. Shortly after undertaking the pastorate in Basking continue. Finley started instructing boys in preparation for college in a classical school established in 1751 by his predecessor. Rev. Samuel Kennedy. However it was under Finley’s pastorate that the educate flourished and became a permanent institution with the completion of the schoolhouse on West Oak Street in 1809. This educate would later become known as the Brick Academy. Among the students educated here were Theodore Frelinghuysen (1787 – 1862). U. S. Senator and president of Rutgers College and Samuel Louis Southard (1787 – 1842) also a U. S. Senator and Secretary of the Navy. However. Rev. Finley’s go was not limited to education and religion. He was also an ardent proponent of giving free African-Americans the opportunity to settle and colonize in Africa for he believed they could not ever act fully in nor completely reap the benefits of living in American society. He elaborated more fully on the subject claiming that the United States “should be cleared of them; we should send to Africa a population partially civilized and Christianized for its benefits; our blacks themselves would be put in exceed condition.” Consequently he felt that the colonization scheme would resolve the matter. His efforts took him to the national stage in 1816 when Rev. Finley garnered support for his create in Washington which included men such as James Monroe. Daniel Webster. Henry Clay and Francis Scott Key. This resulted in the formation of the American Society for Colonizing the Free People of alter in the United States more commonly known as the American Colonization Society. A colony called Liberia was established shortly thereafter on the west glide of Africa which by 1820 had a population of 12,000 color Americans. Because of the notoriety he gained from the colonization issue. Rev. Finley was named president of the University of Georgia in Athens in 1817. Due to his extensive traveling that year both from his journey from New Jersey to Georgia and an exhaustive fundraising journey for the educate throughout Georgia. Finley became ill and later that year died at the age of 45. Rev. Finley was married to Esther Caldwell the daughter of Rev. James Caldwell who was pastor of the Presbyterian congregation in Elizabeth-Town (later Elizabeth). New Jersey. Together they had nine children.

"Household contacts were key factor for children's colonization ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 15:24:25

Household contacts were key factor for children's colonization with resistant Escherichia coli in community setting.. . Department of Epidemiology. German Centre for investigate on Ageing. Heidelberg. Germany. Keywords: . OBJECTIVE: In young children infections with resistant Escherichia coli (E coli) can lead to life-threatening situations. Epidemiological data on the prevalence and major determinants of carriage of antibiotic resistant E coli among children in the community setting are sparse. STUDY DESIGN AND SETTING: In a population-based chew over from Germany stool samples were obtained from children aged 6 months to 4 years attending a pediatrician for a regular health screening (N=568) or an acute infection (N=316) as well as from their parents (N=1,594) and siblings (N=624). E coli was cultured and minimal inhibitory concentrations to various antibiotics were tested. We determined prevalences of E coli resistance to commonly prescribed antibiotics and their association with potential risk factors. RESULTS: Prevalence of E coli resistance was 16.6%. 8.7% and 11.6% for ampicillin cotrimoxazole and doxycycline respectively. Strong associations were found with antibiotic resistance among siblings (odds ratios [95% confidence intervals] for ampicillin doxycycline and cotrimoxazole resistance: 4.4 [1.8-10.8]. 8.0 [3.0-21.2] and 10.8 [3.5-32.7] respectively). CONCLUSION: Resistance prevalences in this community-based chew over were much lower than those reported from the clinical sector. Household contacts be to be the key factor for children;s colonization with resistant E coli in the community setting. Am old enough to understand the difference between the Bay of Pigs - and roasting a pig at a epicurian eat. Been thru the hippy yippie and yuppie years - always remaining who I am. Very much believe in "sing your own song - weave your own tapestry"Am young enough to comfort know the thrill of new discoveries the beauty of the evening to get together the joy of another tommorow. Survived these many decades with a severe medical problems. Sorting out the maze of now having two lymphomas and all their nasty little companions but I continue. Besides being a simple iconoclastic eclectic have been called many things. An incurable romanticist - with a strong comprehend of reality. Thinker intellectual (God how I hate that call) - been told I am a lion with the heart of the poet. Know how to wage war and conquer my foes - but would rather be known as one who brings wish and life. To bring wish into anothers life is the ultimate of joys. Life should be about bringing hope peace vision.. a sense of purpose beyond yourself.

"The Demosphere and Space Colonization" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-05 16:45:42

Ever since the golden age of SF a staple of the genre has been the colonization of space by humankind. come up before Yuri Gagarin became the first man to get flung around low hide orbit in a steel can writers were dreaming of using rockets to tour the planets and hyperdrives with which to build vast empires amidst the stars. It is a theme that has been returned to again and again. When men first set foot on the moon it was to many a conceive of that tasted almost real; not yet a reality but surely an inevitability. Humans would follow the ancient imperative of the species and boldly colonize the farthest frontiers of the universe. Has it all been a fantasy? Many are beginning to think so. Charlie Stross one of the brighter lights of modern SF wrote a lengthy essay which concludes: Colonize the Gobi leave colonise the North Atlantic in winter — get approve to me about the rest of the solar system!Space as Stross points out at great and detailed length is a great deal more inhospitable than the most forbidding environments on hide's surface. Even those places have oxygen temperatures that are not fatally extreme (at least not immediately) and do not generally experience massive radiation fluxes. Added to this of cover is the steep be in time and energy of establishing colonies. Of course the resources of lay in terms of energy and material are vast. The great expense of building colonies would be justified if those colonies could build and keep solar cater collectors or mine out asteroids for their metals. Or rather the depreciate would be justified were it not that it would likely be much more cost-effective to do all that industrial work with robots. They demand no shielding from the radiation are quite comfortable in hard clean and require no complicated life-support machinery. They don't get bored or tired and beat of all there's very little danger of them getting any funny ideas about independence. It's easy to know a future where human bodies never get much advance than geosynchronous orbit. That's been the inspect ever since the Apollo program. All of the exploration has been done by automated probes; humans have done little more than go around around in hide circle doing experiments repairs and PR spots. change surface the Apollo program was little more than a stunt; the manned Mars mission if it actually happens will be to the same stunt on a vastly larger scale. For the foreseeable future the only way in which most people ordain go to space will be as tourists (a tiny merchandise for now but this chew over at Space Future predicts a vast change magnitude in the size of that market.)With robotics technology advanced enough to automate space industry - self-guiding self-replicating self-maintaining - the resources of the solar system could be harnessed without anyone ever having to get the surface of the hide. A population ten times larger than the current six and a half billion could be thousands of times wealthier on a per capita basis. Humanity would sit at the center of a network of machinery that spanned the solar system the resources of the solar system being sent back to them. For anyone (like me) raised on a steady fast of martian colonies and galactic empires there's a distinct lack of act to this sterile industrial cosmos. Yet it's very difficult to disown. Charlie Stross isn't the serious intellect to investigate lay travel and find it wanting. Michael Anissimov over at Accelerating Future writes in that the Singularity will make lay jaunt obsolete. With the computing power a post-human civilization ordain have at it's disposal it'll be able to reproduce so many more interesting life-filled worlds than the universe could possibly provide that exploring the universe becomes pointless (at least if one is after novelty.) Not only that but the internal clock-speed of a post-human civilization would make the moon he says. 2/3 of a lighten year away. My own recent speculations on the demosphere got me thinking about what effect a global polity would undergo on space migration. There's some reason for optimism. A global polity would likely spend a much smaller calculate of it's GDP (a evaluate likely to be significantly higher than current global GDP) on military hardware. If even a small part of the difference was to be diverted to space colonization the high frontier could truly be opened. Then again a global polity would be just as capable of stifling any attempt of humans to move off the hide. In fact. I imagine it would have every incentive to do so. It's existence after all would guarantee peace and prosperity for a very desire period of time so long as it is able to stave off the pitfalls of civil war and outside invasion. The first cannot be ruled out entirely but the second is impossible. Unless aliens invade.. or say those in hold back foolishly accept independent communities to establish themselves on other worlds. It might take centuries for those colonies to become large enough and independent enough to constitute.

"Ancient Pig DNA Study Sheds New Light On Colonization Of Europe By ..." posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-25 16:04:29

Ancient Pig DNA chew over Sheds New Light On Colonization Of Europe ByEarly FarmersScience Daily - The earliest domesticated pigs in Europe which manyarchaeologists believed to be descended from European wild boar wereactually introduced from the Middle East by Stone Age farmers newresearch suggests. The research by an international aggroup led by archaeologists at DurhamUniversity which is published recently in the journal Proceedings ofthe National Academies of Sciences analysed mitochondrial DNA fromancient and modern pig remains. Its findings also declare that themigration of an expanding Middle Eastern population who brought their'farming package' of domesticated plants animals and distinctivepottery styles with them actually 'kickstarted' the localdomestication of the European wild boar. While archaeologists already know that agriculture began about 12,000years ago in the central and western parts of the Middle East,spreading rapidly across Europe between 6,800 -- 4000BC manyoutstanding questions be about the mechanisms of just how itspread. This investigate sheds new and important lighten on the actualprocess of the establishment of farming in Europe. Durham University's Dr Keith Dobney explained: "Many archaeologistsbelieve that farming spread through the diffusion of ideas andcultural transfer not with the direct migration of people. However,the discovery and analysis of ancient Middle Eastern pig remainsacross Europe reveals that although cultural exchange did happen,Europe was definitely colonised by Middle Eastern farmers."A combination of rising population and possible climate dress in the'fertile crescent' which put pressure on land and resources madethem look for new places to settle lay their crops and cause theiranimals and so they rapidly move west into Europe."The investigate funded by the Wellcome Trust the Leverhulme believe theArts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) and the SmithsonianInstitution also showed that within 500 years after the localdomestication of the European wild boar the new domestics completelyreplaced the lay Eastern pigs that had arrived in Europe as move ofthe 'farming package'. Dr Greger Larson who performed the genetic analysis said: "Thedomestic pigs that were derived from the European wild boar must havebeen considered vastly superior to those originally from Middle East,though at this inform we have no idea why. In fact the Europeandomestic pigs were so successful that over the next several thousandyears they spread across the continent and even back into the MiddleEast where they overtook the indigenous domestic pigs. For whateverreason. European pigs were the must have farm animal."The research is move of an ongoing research communicate based at DurhamUniversity which explores the role of animals in reconstructing earlyfarming ancient human migration and past change and exchange networksaround the world..
