The Supreme Court was right to stop this dramatic overreach by the White House. If Democrats want to spend taxpayer dollars on student loan forgiveness, they'll need to retake both houses of Congress and maintain the White House in 2024 in order to do it with legislation. The post SCOTUS Blocks Biden's Student Loan Forgiveness appeared first on American Enterprise Institute - AEI.
Aughie and Nia discuss the recent leak of an opinion out of the U.S. Supreme Court. ; https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/civil_discourse/1130/thumbnail.jpg
In this episode, Aughie and Nia discuss the Georgia v Public Resource case decided before the Supreme Court, October term, 2019. The holding: Under the government edicts doctrine, the annotations beneath the statutory provisions in the Official Code of Georgia Annotated are ineligible for copyright protection (SCOTUSblog). ; https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/civil_discourse/1035/thumbnail.jpg
Nia and Aughie discuss the meaning of "sex" as written into Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, considering how it may pertain to being fired for being homosexual or transgender. They also talk at length about the concepts of Constitutional textualism, as interpreted by several justices. ; https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/civil_discourse/1037/thumbnail.jpg
In this paper I focus on the most problematic aspects of Aristotelian notion of happiness and ethics. Aristotelian ethics and the Greek wisdom on the whole strove for being, completeness and totality. Such thinking and its total attempt to achieve being, especialy rational being, that often became ideological violence, nowadays is receiving more and more incredulity and criticism. The schoolman of the 13th century Duns Scotus already stated such notions of happiness and ethics that required otherness with its radical transcendence. Also the phenomenologist of the 20th century Emmanuel Lévinas criticizes the Western view of humanity. The total(itarian) consciousness and any systematization in Lévinas' alternative thinking are ruptured by the ideas of infinity and the other that enable to think otherwise, and outside of being.

Šiame straipsnyje, atsispiriant nuo Aristotelio laimės sąvokos, siekiama kritiškai apmąstyti klasikinę graikiškąją etikos sampratą. Aristotelio etika, o ir graikiškojoje ontologijoje įsišaknijusi (iš)mintis visada siekė apimti, išbaigti ir imanentiškai suvokti būties visumą. Toks vyraujančia tradicija tapęs mąstymas, pagrįstas conatus essendi ir dažnai neišvengiantis tapti ideologine prievarta, šiandien sulaukia vis daugiau nepasitikėjimo ir kritikos. Ir ne tik šiandien. Jau XIII a. scholastas Dunsas Škotas mąstė apie minėtos laimės ir etikos sampratos alternatyvą, kuri reikalauja kitybės idėjos, nurodančios į tai, kas absoliučiai transcenduoja mąstantįjį subjektą. Taip pat ir XX a. fenomenologas Emmanuelis Lévinas savo kritiką nukreipia į vakarietiškąją ontocentrinę pasaulėvoką ir iš jos išplaukiančią žmogiškumo sampratą. Totalią, sisteminančią ir neišvengiamai totalitarinę sąmonę Lévino alternatyviojoje fenomenologijoje "praplėšia" begalybės ir kitybės idėjos, padedančios mąstyti kitaip ir anapus buvimo.
Aughie and Nia follow up an earlier podcast (Electoral College) with the rulings that were pending at that time. In a unanimous decision, the SCOTUS held that electors must follow the rules their states have set out for voting in the electoral college. The SCOTUS also held that states could punish electors that "go rogue". Discussion ensued on the long term effect this may have on the functioning of the Electoral College. ; https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/civil_discourse/1041/thumbnail.jpg
Based on three decades of field experience in southwest Asia, southern Africa, and the southwest United States, the author summarizes the major adaptations of plants to desert dunes. This integrative study of plant and diaspore morphology, reactive growth, life cycles, and environmental factors explains and predicts plant distribution. Many kinds of dune syndromes, plant case studies and vegetation transects are discussed and illustrated to clarify the significance of adaptations to specific habitat factors. Although the focus is on vascular plants, the development of microbiotic soil crust, its function, and its composition are discussed as well

Nia and Aughie explore themes from the summer of SCOTUS, from the effects of COVID-19 to who wrote the most opinions. Themes include up and downsides to oral arguments, John Roberts' voting record, rulings all over the ideological spectrum, voting and opinion writing, and the future docket of the Court. ; https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/civil_discourse/1045/thumbnail.jpg
In the rulings for these two cases, Aughie and Nia wrestle with the competing interests of the 1st Amendment's causes regarding religion, civil rights, and moral exceptions for employers. In the first case, the SCOTUS ruling upholds the moral or religious exemption from being required to cover their employees' contraception. In the second case, the question of the ministerial exception is explored. ; https://scholarscompass.vcu.edu/civil_discourse/1040/thumbnail.jpg

"This book in two Volumes and with a FOREWORD by the renowned Professor M.A.J. Williams draws on evidence from coastal and inland regions, including desert dunes, wind-blown dust, river and lake sediments, glacial moraines, plant and animal fossils, isotope geochemistry, soils and prehistoric archaeology to better understand the genesis and development of dunes systems in selected northern hemisphere sand dunes from Asia, Africa and the Middle East regions. The collection of research papers and case studies that are presented in this book provide the reader with a wealth of information about the distribution and types of sand dunes and an insight into the complexity of sand dune formation, migration and management. Research in many countries across the northern hemisphere on Dunes, whether coastal or inland are under pressure around the world. Much of the pressure comes from human activities, and the anthropogenic disturbance, when coupled with global warming and alterations to the amount, frequency and temporal distribution of precipitation could lead to more serious management challenges in the future. There is much that we still need to find out about the origin, genesis and development of sand dunes so that they can be managed better. The difficult and complex questions being repeatedly raised can be answered only by interdisciplinary endeavours. Geomorphologists, geologists, palaeontologists, climatologists, ecologists, and others, can work together on research projects that better define the origin, evolution and development of dunes, both inland and along the coasts"--

Gestionnaire de la majeure partie des dunes littorales de la côte atlantique française, l'Office national des Forêts a mis au point des techniques de contrôle souple de la mobilité des dunes bordières non boisées. Ces travaux sont modulés selon le contexte dynamique local et visent à répondre à une large gamme d'attentes sociales : protection de l'arrière-pays, conservation d'écosystèmes originaux, modération du recul des côtes.
