Somewhere Only We Know

it is legitimate to rebel against the king if he breaks the contract. In fact, it is not as revolutionary as it is sometimes described; for example, some of its articles only apply to “free men”, who were at the time a small minority of people! However, it lays the foundations for the appearance of democracy in England. Not only does it expose the king's abuse, but it also allows the barons to fight the royal power as a class and no longer as individuals, through the creation of a permanent commission

work. In a modern-day variant of Tuesdays with Morrie, Professor Lazarus and I would have an extended lunch every Tuesday, sharing braised Chinese fish—a dish he relished but to which his wife, Bernice, was allergic. During those unforgettable meetings, we would discuss intellectual issues, university politics, and, above all, our personal aspirations. Professor Lazarus was one of the giants of twentieth century psychology. He was a giant precisely because he did not fall victim to allegiance with preexisting

associate certain “poetic” qualities with metaphor – most especially, producing an open-ended, holistic perspective which is evocative, imagistic and affectively-laden. I argue that, on the one hand, non-cognitivists are wrong to claim that metaphors only produce such perspectives: like ordinary literal speech, they also serve to undertake claims and other speech acts with propositional content. On the other hand, contextualists are wrong to assimilate metaphor to literal loose talk: metaphors depend

My major change in outlook (which is responsible for its form) dates back to a day ten years ago at the University of Warwick, when I was comparing notes on teaching with the late David Fowler. He explained his own history of mathematics

The scene is set in outer space… In the foreground, a space shuttle/spacecraft is connected to five pods… On the left-hand side, we can see the Earth/planet Earth and the atmosphere surrounding it… I guess the space shuttle must be full of space tourists, ready to disembark/get off, enter the space hotel and experience weightlessness… The name of the space shuttle is “Galactic Suite”…

if and only if the following (2.1) Proof The condition (2.1) has an easy economic interpretation. It simply says that the return on the stock is not allowed to dominate the return on the bond and vice versa. To show that absence of arbitrage implies (2.1), we assume that (2.1) does in fact not hold, and then we show that this implies an arbitrage opportunity. Let us thus assume that one of the inequalities in (2.1) does not hold, so that ~ have, say, the inequality 8(1 + R) > su. Then we also have

also understand the science of light, optics, vision, the psychology of perception and lighting technology. Using these tools the lighting designer must learn to think, feel and create with his heart. When it's good lighting design - you alone will know. When it's bad lighting design - everyone will tell you! [pic] 1.02 - EVOLUTION OF LIGHTING DESIGN 1. Early Stage Lighting Stage lighting design is probably as old as formalized theatre. The early Greeks built their theatres as open air spaces

We have so far spoken as though the main function oflanguage were to communicate information. This is no doubt a most important function. For science it is its sale function. For this reason a science, in propor­ tion as it becomes what we call "scientific" finds it necessary to devise a termirwlogy, Le. a set of technical terms which aim at precision, Le. uniqueness of

assumes it must somehow be moving in a curved path, because its position in relation to the stationary sun or moon, has unexpectedly changed. The moth then adjusts its course until it sees the light as stationary again. With a light source so close, the only way this is possible is to fly around and around it in circles. Moths do not eat clothes. (It’s their caterpillars that do it.) Where is the driest place on earth? Antarctica. Parts of the continent have seen no rain for two million years. A desert
