Roger's Rules ? Sex Week at Harvard

William Jacobson over at Legal Insurrection drew my attention yesterday to ?Sex Week at Harvard.? I tweeted about it then (@rogerkimball), but the true awfulness of the phenomenon cannot be captured in 140 characters.

According to its web site, the event was organized by ?Sexual Health Education & Advocacy throughout Harvard College (SHEATH), a recognized student-run organization at Harvard.? The organization is ?dedicated to empowering the Harvard community to explore their experiences with love and sex by providing comprehensive programming addressing a wide range of issues relating to sex, relationships, dating, sexual health, and sexuality.? All the important subjects a well-rounded college student would wish to master.

Are you feeling a little shiver of cognitive dissonance, a slight frisson of surrealistic displacement? ?There?s a lot more where that came from. Here?s the description of sex week:

Sex Week at Harvard intends to promote a week of programming that is interdisciplinary, thought-provoking, scholastic, innovative, and applicable to student experiences in order to promote a holistic understanding of sex and sexuality. Our goal is to connect diverse individuals and communities both within and beyond Harvard through common human experiences with love, sex, sexuality, and relationships.

?Interdisciplinary,? eh? ?Scholaistic?? ?Innovative?? ?Diverse individuals?? I also liked this little advisory: ?All of the events will be designed to be welcoming to anyone, regardless of their personal identities, practices, and preferences.?

They?re just joshing, of course. The program is designed to be welcoming only to a couple narrow slivers of the population. Curiously, they are slivers that overlap only slightly.? ?Sex Week at Harvard? is ?designed to be welcoming? ?to the feminist-inspired PC sexual police who are always advising you to ?take back the night? and natter on endlessly about protecting women even as they advocate ?empowering? them sexually. ?Sex Week? is also ?designed to be welcoming? to certain species of sexual adventurer, not your traditional Don Juan, of course ? he was a patriarchal sexist pig ? but other, more florid blossoms on the tree of sexual obsession

Are you in Cambridge, Massachusetts, today? You?re in luck!? Here are some of the ?innovative,? ?thought provoking,? ?scholastic? entertainments you can sample:

?Hooking Up on Campus
8PM, Science Center D

Hooking up is happening at Harvard?at least, so it appears from I Saw You Harvard.But what is the hook up culture all about, and what is it really like? Popular sociologist Dr. Lisa Wade shares her scholarly work on hook up culture on college campuses across this nation. College students are having sex, it?s true?but the details might surprise you! Lisa will use survey data and first-person stories to reveal the real hook up culture, arguing that we should be worried about the sexual culture on college campuses, but not for the reasons you might think.

Nota bene: this exploration of ?the real hook up culture? is sponsored by the ?Office of Sexual Assault Prevention and Response.?

The body's bacteria affect intestinal blood vessel formation

ScienceDaily (Mar. 25, 2012) ? Researchers at the Sahlgrenska Academy at the University of Gothenburg, Sweden, ?have discovered a previously unknown mechanism which helps intestinal bacteria to affect the formation of blood vessels. The results, which are presented in Nature, may provide future treatments of intestinal diseases and obesity.

There are ten times more bacteria in our intestines than cells in the human body. However, we know relatively little about how the normal gut microbiota functions and the resulting effects on our physiology.

Previously unknown mechanism

In a study of mice, researchers at the University of Gothenburg?s Sahlgrenska Academy have discovered a previously unknown mechanism by which gut microbiota influences intestinal physiology and blood vasculature remodelling. The results, which are published in the online version of the highly respected scientific journal Nature on 11 March, open up future opportunities to control the intestine?s absorption of nutrients, which in turn may be used to treat conditions such as intestinal diseases and obesity.

New blood vessels

The study focuses on villi, finger-like projections which are about one millimetre long, and which increase the surface area of the intestine and maximise its ability to absorb nutrients. In the presence of bacteria, these villi become shorter and wider, which means that new blood vessels must be formed. However, the process involved has previously been unclear.

"Zip code"?for protein signals

?Our study shows that signals from the normal gut microbiota that induces blood vessel formation in the small intestine? says researcher Fredrik B?ckhed, who led the study at the Sahlgrenska Academy. ?In simplified terms, the intestinal bacteria promote the mucosal cells in the intestine to attach a sugar molecule to a specific protein. The sugar molecule acts like a zip code moving it to the cell surface where it induces signaling.

?It will take time before the results can be applied in a clinical context and converted into new therapies. But our discovery is exciting, and is a result of fundamental basic research which teaches us a great deal about how we live in cooperation with the normal gut microobiota.?

HONOLULU (AP) ? Hollywood icon James Cameron has completed his journey to Earth's deepest point.

The director of "Titanic," ''Avatar" and other films used a specially designed submarine to dive nearly seven miles. He spent time exploring and filming the Mariana Trench, about 200 miles southwest of the Pacific island of Guam, according to members of the National Geographic expedition.

Cameron returned to the surface of the Pacific Ocean on Monday morning local time, Sunday evening on the U.S. East Coast, according to Stephanie Montgomery of the National Geographic Society.

He spent a little more than three hours under water after reaching a depth of 35,756 feet before he began his return to the surface, according to information provided by the expedition team. He had planned to spend up to six hours on the sea floor.

Cameron's return aboard his 12-ton, lime-green sub called Deepsea Challenger was a "faster-than-expected 70-minute ascent," according to National Geographic.

There were no immediate reports regarding Cameron's well-being. A medical team was present when Cameron, 57, emerged from the sub, according to the expedition.

Expedition physician Joe MacInnis told National Geographic News before the journey that recent test dives, including one that went more than five miles deep, had gone well and that he expected Cameron would be fine.

"Jim is going to be a little bit stiff and sore from the cramped position, but he's in really good shape for his age, so I don't expect any problems at all," said MacInnis, a long-time Cameron friend, according to National Geographic.

There was no immediate word on when photographic footage of the journey will be released.

The scale of the trench is hard to grasp ? it's 120 times larger than the Grand Canyon and more than a mile deeper than Mount Everest is tall.

"It's really the first time that human eyes have had an opportunity to gaze upon what is a very alien landscape," said Terry Garcia, the National Geographic Society's executive VP for mission programs, via phone from Scotland.

Swiss engineer Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh, a U.S. Navy captain, are the only others to reach the spot. They spent about 20 minutes there during their 1960 dive but couldn't see much after their sub kicked up sand from the sea floor.

One of the risks of a dive so deep was extreme water pressure. At 6.8 miles below the surface, the pressure is the equivalent of three SUVs sitting on your toe.

Cameron told The Associated Press in an interview after a 5.1 mile-deep practice run near Papua New Guinea earlier this month that the pressure "is in the back of your mind." The submarine would implode in an instant if it leaked, he said.

But while he was a little apprehensive beforehand, he wasn't scared or nervous while underwater.

"When you are actually on the dive you have to trust the engineering was done right," he said.

The film director has been an oceanography enthusiast since childhood and has made 72 deep-sea submersible dives. Thirty-three of those dives have been to the wreckage of the Titanic, the subject of his 1997 hit film, which is being released in a 3-D version next month.

I chose you because I had to choose someone. I am a cancer patient and my age is 58. I would require your bank information to begin this process.??.

To be precise, NO. That is most definitely not the ultimate Internet marketing technique. It may be one of the worst. There is more to marketing than just advertising or selling goods and services, even though most people think otherwise. It does more than just advertising and selling Those who are early in their IM careers can sometimes be hard to deal with if they are not willing to learn things on their own. An ebook or course pertaining to FreebieJeebies Review will necessarily have to skip a lot that is needed but not necessarily the subject of that book.

So you can easily see that it really can be dangerous to attempt some strategies until you are completely sure of what you are doing.

What we will talk about in this article assumes a certain level of previous learning. That is one aspect of internet business that we love; there is always something more that can be learned. With a very basic marketing campaign, even a beginner can fairly easily get a good sense if they are in good shape before jumping into the fire.. Marketing encompasses all activities, starting from those undertaken to identify the wants and needs of a targeted group of customers, up to and including the utilization of all possible effort to satisfy them One thing is certain, powerful strategies employing Wealthy Affiliate as well as others dictate you to know the finer aspects of such tools.

We will be very hard pressed to ever believe a business cannot take an additional technique and make it work for them.

Remember that the web is a highly dynamic environment, and lots of people have lost their main source of income overnight due to forces beyond their control. People in business, on or off the net, have been wiped out and lost all their hard work and income stream. Sure, you can take Carbon Copy Commissions Review and maybe get to the point where you do not have to work all day at it, but just think of all the money you are walking away from by not expanding your efforts. There are too many very real dangers in IM, and they all have to do with the fluid nature of it as well as all the other people vying for your business share.. In addition to conducting market research on customers, you will also be analyzing their needs.

The decisions about designing, pricing, promoting (including advertising), distributing and ways to sell your product can be made by applying what you have learnt. The internet makes it possible to identify and reach many potential customers. Even though your product or service may be highly specialized, a good Internet marketing technique makes it possible for you to reach the maximum number of potential customers.

There are numerous methods to achieve this on the internet; such as specialized internet forums, social networking sites, e-mail discussion groups and message boards.

The success of these three techniques can partly be attributed to their ability to form relationships between you and your potential customer. It??s not like you are terrorizing them into buying something, you are just trying to help. So, what is the secret that makes a technique the Ultimate in Internet Marketing?

The method is clear cut; there is nothing classified or magical about it. The ultimate internet marketing technique is whatever works. Nowadays, online marketing, blogging and article marketing seem to be successful.
