I very much enjoyed this article. First, because "O Holy Night" is also my favorite religious Christmas carol. I also grew up watching MTV ( when the network only showed videos, not programs like "The Real World," etc. ) and was in college when "Do They Know It 's Christmas?" was a hit song for a worthwhile cause. Unlike the good author, although I was "cool" in terms of going to occasional popular rock concerts, I never gave to a worthwhile charity to feed the hungry in Ethiopia. However, in my small way (donating clothes to a Catholic homeless shelter for men, and dropping change into Salvation Army kettles each time I went to the mall) I believe I gave to people in need. I agree that it's wrong to assume that people in all African nations are beset by poverty and extreme hunger. I do know a number of immigrants from Africa who work at the nursing home/rehabilitation center where I live. However, I didn't realize that there's evidence from some studies that nearly half of the continent's people are Christians. Of course, one not need to be a follower of Christ to need or be "entitled" to the necessities of life. I also agree that "Do They Know It's Christmas?" probably is the only secular Christmas song that " speaks to the spirit of giving. " After all, although worshipping the Christ Child is the true purpose of the holyday, giving to others (either material gifts or listening and lending a hand) are important to living out the meaning of Christmas. After all, Jesus taught us, "Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me." ( Matthew 25: 35-40).
Thank you for this awesome article. I have the same feelings about a song Do they know it's Christmas, I was almost a teenager when I heard it and fell in love with it. Also I wrote a small article here about my vision of this song. This Christmas song is the most truethful and sincere. The song is number one for me, even thought I don't like Bono.
For those who come into teaching with anything less than a profound desire to have a positive impact on young people and passion to share their own knowledge because they truly believe in its ability to transform the lives of those they teach, schools are difficult places to be and I struggle to understand why they have chosen to become teachers. Perhaps the thought of long holidays is sufficient to lure them in but it is a false promise. If you are going to be a successful teacher, education has to be a calling, and when you respond to a calling, the holidays are your opportunity to further your own knowledge of your subject to further enrich the education of your pupils upon returning to the classroom.
Your meeting with the Head Teacher is crucial when you are deciding on a school for your son or daughter. If they say that a school is not about the buildings but about the teachers and the pupils, and if it is said with sincerity, then it is worth looking at what else is on offer because you can be confident that the foundations of that school are strong and the purpose of that school is to bring out the best in your son or daughter. It is a great starting point.
lyrics written & recorded by Samantha Leah:The guy in the mansion who doesn't tipThe food in the market that makes us sickThe girl who cut me in line just like I don't existThe man who fucked up my mind with his abusive tricksSociety for telling me who I can and cannot beThe people I've supported who never supported meThe ones who just have everything but never worked a dayEach time I feel this feeling, I know I have to sayForgive them for they know not what they doWe may not like it, so we fight it, but it's a necessary truthI'm frustrated and I hate it, can you please take it away?I don't claim this, I don't blame them, get me out of this stateEveryone is just doing the best they canAnd some of us just weren't dealt the greatest handYeah, I pray that by the end of this life, I can let go of this hellAnd by the end of this life, I'd have forgiven myselfAnxiety that follows me all into the nightThe neighbors right on top of me who constantly fightThe person that cut me off even though we're at the same red lightThe people on the internet spewing hurtful shitI'm a human with emotions, yeah, those things, they still existBut each time I pass a judgment, well, I have to bite my lipIf I'll never be perfect, how can I be mad at them?Forgive them for they know not what they doWe may not like it, so we fight it, but it's a necessary truthI'm frustrated and I hate it, can you please take it away?I don't claim this, I don't blame them, get me out of this stateEveryone is just doing the best they canAnd some of us just weren't dealt the greatest handYeah, I pray that by the end of this life, I can let go of this hellAnd by the end of this life, I'd have forgiven...Driving down the freeway, just my thoughts among the silenceKnow I'm made of love but in my head I'm choosing violenceReady to give up the fight, end the need to know I'm rightTriggers are a blessing cause they point to what's inside usForgive them for they know not what they doWe may not like it, so we fight it, but it's a necessary truthI'm frustrated and I hate it, can you please take it away?I don't claim this, I don't blame them, get me out of this stateEveryone is just doing the best they canAnd some of us just weren't dealt the greatest handSo, I pray that by the end of this life, I can let go of this hellAnd by the end of this life, I'd have forgiven myself
One of the most important things that I've learned in my time writing for Ars Technica is how little I know. Look at my back catalogue of stories and you will notice that most of my articles are combinations of quantum mechanics and optics. Every now and again I venture into the fraught territory of cosmology, materials sciences, and climatology. Even more rarely, I head off into the wild and write something about medicine or biology.
I only ever write these articles if the papers on which they are based are written clearly; I want to be reasonably certain that I haven't mangled the research entirely. Yet, if you let yourself be flushed down the intertubes, you will find physicists and engineers like myself expounding on topics that are far outside their field of expertise. These people are often so badly wrong that it is hard to know where to begin in any argument to counter them.
All of this has combined to put physics and engineering on a pedestal, at least in many people's minds. But many of us in these fields just don't recognize that the pedestal on which we stand is imaginary, and that we don't really know enough to contribute much at a high level outside of our own field.
I am focusing on physicists and engineers but, in fact, anyone can fall victim to this belief in their own expertise. Research shows that the less expert we are in some field, the more certain we are that our opinions and predictions are correct. The cynical view of this is that we are all stupid and don't hesitate to exhibit our stupidity in public, but it's more likely that we all know a little something about many different things. Unfortunately, what we don't know are all the caveats, exceptions, and oddities that always accompany the general rules of any field.
That doesn't stop us all from trying. The evidence from psychological experiments indicates that people will go to great lengths to make up a coherent story based around facts. And, if they happen to be invested in the story, they will twist themselves into knots to make the result fit their preconceived notions. This sort of reasoning knows no political boundaries: communists did not blame communism for the failure of their regimes, and free market ideologues never blame the market.
The result is some physicists and engineers who argue vehemently, and with little detailed knowledge, that Michael Mann is a moron and that global warming is bunk. We have physicists who don't know their eukaryotes from their prokaryotes arguing that Darwin was daft. We have physicists and engineers who argue that 9/11 was an inside job.
To be honest, I don't know if human nature is such that this will always be true. But I am more certain that one can train oneself to be open to changing a long-held opinion. For instance, just recently we ran a story about the plague, and one of the authors admitted that he had changed his mind entirely when faced with evidence that undermined his position.
This is notable because of its rarity, sadly. Our educational systems often do a good job teaching people to construct logical and consistent stories, and to develop arguments to support a position. Unfortunately, they haven't always taught us how to recognize that our opinion may have been ill-formed, that our logical tower may be founded on faulty premises, and that, in general, we are all vulnerable to falling victim to smart people who tell a good story--or to becoming those people ourselves.
During a discussion yesterday at the Reagan National Defense Forum in Simi Valley, California, Air Force Gen. CQ Brown, Jr. said there's great opportunity in military service. To get young people to consider it for themselves, they just need to hear more about it.
"I think about the opportunities and the things that young people will have the opportunity to do if they were to join our military," he said. "We've got to talk about that. And partly the reason I say that is because I believe young people only aspire to be what they see or know about. If you don't know about the opportunities of serving in the military, you may never pursue that career field."
"I became an F-16 pilot, and I still get to fly today. It's those kinds of opportunities, I think, that you just don't know until you have a chance to experience it," he said. "And whether you stay for just a handful of years or you stay in for a handful of decades, there are great opportunities serving in our military."
"I'm just so amazed by the young people that come into our military. And when I go out and talk to them, they are focused on warfighting. They are focused on getting the mission done, and they're just they're amazing young people, and I'm just proud to be able to work with them."
