development requires the learner to actually experience success in an area of activity that is currently outside their competence – through what is termed ‘scaffolding’.

Sustainable transformations require shifts on the inside, because what’s inside us finds a way out.  For many personal changes, healing and growth are the only way forward

Ocasio-Cortez found a seat at the congressional table despite the fact that the median net worth of U.S. Congress members is over $1.1 million as of 2015, with a cumulative wealth of at least $2.43 billion. The self-described democratic socialist caught heat shortly after her election when the media learned she had less than $7,000 in her bank account. Instead of shying away from her account balance, Ocasio-Cortez doubled down to tweet that she was newly insured and had recently purchased her first couch.

Although the outcome of the protests is still up in the air, if they lead to snap elections, nationalists could win greater political power, Butkevich said, especially Svoboda, the far-right parliamentary party in the coalition of three opposition parties leading the protest. (Right Sector criticizes all three for “pacifism,” including Svoboda.)

He continued: “Why do I feel guilty, like I'm betraying my country for saying that, I'm not, I love America.

“But I think this is a beautiful city. I can say that. And I don't know if I'm allowed to say that.

Legal luminary Burt Neuborne argues that the structure of the First Amendment as well as of the entire Bill of Rights was more intentional than most people realize, beginning with the internal freedom of conscience and working outward to freedom of expression and finally freedom of public association. This design, Neuborne argues, was not to protect discrete individual rights—such as the rights of corporations to spend unlimited amounts of money to influence elections—but to guarantee that the process of democracy continues without disenfranchisement, oppression, or injustice.

non-selectionist approach to evolutionary epistemology, based on “Poincaréan dynamics,” has been proposed by Barham (1990).

Oct. 23, 1983, suicide bomber attacks mounted by Hezbollah against the U.S. Marine and French military barracks in Beirut. Those bombings killed 241 U.S. military personnel and 58 French troops. Iran has only recently admitted its responsibility, but the U.S. intelligence community had proof at the time of Iran’s involvement. Yet the United States never effectively retaliated. Instead, the Reagan administration traded arms for hostages with Tehran.

Within the film’s contextual setting however — where intricately interwoven circumstances might otherwise reflect nothing more than a temporarily disheveled family milieu, Nicholas nevertheless, finds himself in a disparate struggle to retain his sense of place, meaning, and functional connection with the world and others.

So my answer is not to give up on people, to write people off as racist. It's really to activate other stories

D S Wilson (1997) referred to these themes as “altruism” and “organism.”

It is unlikely that these coordination mechanisms evolve as a coincidental byproduct of organisms that are adapted exclusively to survive and reproduce better than other members of their same group

Mrs. Teasdale, you did a noble deed. I’d be unworthy of the high trust that’s been placed in me if I didn’t do everything within my power to keep our beloved Freedonia at peace with the world.I’d be only too happy to meet Ambassador Trentino, and offer him on behalf of my country the right hand of good fellowship. And I feel sure he will accept this gesture in the spirit in which it is offered.But suppose he doesn’t. A fine thing that’ll be. I hold out my hand and he refuses to accept it. That’ll add a lot to my prestige, won’t it? Me, the head of a country, snubbed by a foreign ambassador. Who does he think he is, that he can come here, and make a sap out of me in front of all my people?Think of it – I hold out my hand and that hyena refuses to accept it. Why, the cheap four flushing swine, he’ll never get away with it I tell you, he’ll never get away with it!”Trentino enters.So, you refuse to shake hands with me, eh?

whom Gorbachev had silenced

In the early 1980s I attended a conference in Boston at which the thought was clearly expressed that international capitalism was the glue that would hold nations together and prevent world war. Nobody (in the power structure anyway) would condone blowing up another country that housed the factories supplying the goods the capitalists needed for creating profit. Spreading factories abroad was viewed as stabilizing
