- This is the Web site of the British Philosophical Association. Founded in 2002, the Association aims to foster understanding among teachers of philosophy, as well as promote philosophy in the wider community. The committee is made up of many distinguished figures in analytic - but also Continental - British philosophy. The site contains much information about the Association, membership, benefits and meetings. But it also carries a number of very useful links to other sites of interest. |

- The Signatories of the Treaty of Waitangi web site is based on the book The Treaty of Waitangi by Claudia Orange, and is published by the New Zealand Ministry of Culture and Heritage as part of their online history project NZHistory.net.nz. The site is primarily concerned with the identification of the numerous signatories of the 1840 Waitangi Treaty between the British and the Maoris, and the different versions of the treaty that exist. Each copy of the treaty - the Waitangi copy, the Manukau-Kawhia copy, the Waikato-Manukau copy, the printed copy, the Tauranga copy, the Bay of Plenty (Fedarb) copy, the Herald-Bunbury copy, the Henry Williams copy, and the East Coast copy - is dealt with individually, with introductory notes, an image of the original, and a transcription of the original. |

- Here We Go Again Well people, I have to go over something again. Firstly, PETA is a horrible organization that should be disbanded. I can't believe so many people subscribe to their stupid ideas. I can believe stupid celebrities do, since half of them didn't even graduate high school, and working in the entertainment industry kills your brain cells anyway, I'm sure, but I can't believe "normal" people do. Hey, smarty-pants, if "factory farm" meat is so bad (and I agree it is), why don't you encourage people to buy organic/small-farm meat, so that those kinds of farms can stay in business, instead of just telling people to skip meat altogether, meaning the only people who are going to change their buying habits are just going to stop buying meat completely instead of buying the right kind of meat? |

- "Until this month, young Saudis were taught at school about the obligation to shun and despise Christians and Jews as infidels and enemies of Islam. But not any more. Starting from this academic year, Saudi Arabia has removed "intolerant and offensive" chapters from its text books, Saudi reformists, teachers and diplomats said." |

- Eleven years after silicone gel breast implants were banned because of safety concerns, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) called for the ban to be lifted, a statement strongly supported by teenage boys across the nation. The FDA panel in charge of investigating the implants voted 9-6 that it is unfair to restrict women from getting the silicone gel implants, a decision echoed by teens. (more...) |
