Singer Island Florida: It may surprise many that their daydream of the picture postcard South Florida resort surrounded by spacious sandy beaches and warm turquoise waters will be found on Singer Island, and not in adjacent Palm Beach.
Singer Island's long sandy beaches are considered by many to be the best in Florida.
Singer Island was named for Paris Eugene Singer, the famous developer of Palm Beach and 23rd child of Isaac Singer, the sewing machine magnate (Paris also fathered a son with Isadora Duncan).

  Amazon.com: Children at War: Books: P.W. Singer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Singer looks at the variety of ways that child soldiers are recruited across cultural and political arenas, the perceived benefits of child soldiers to their political patrons, and the long-term repercussions of inundating the world's children in to an existence based upon violence and death.
Singer's work is based upon personal interviews with child soldiers, adults involved in the raging conflicts, as well as international aid agencies, the UN and others closely involved in the "new warfare." Such a work is an invaluable contribution to the emerging cannon on the changing face of warfare.
Singer uses simple dialogue and logical progression in his publication to provide information on the recruting of child soldiers, what they are subjected to in the field, the difficulty of soldiers facing children, the worst culprits, reintegration of soldiers and proposed methods of ending this aspect of modern warfare.

 A Rebuttal to the "Singer Solution"
Singer argues that most Americans, who choose to buy new TVs and clothes rather than donate all of their discretionary funds to foreign aid, are no less immoral than Bob, the individual previously mentioned.
However, Singer counters this argument by showing children as the primary benefactor of the reader's good will and noting that children cannot be held accountable for their poverty.
Singer would agree with this point, as he himself argues that a major difference between Bob and Dora was the seeming anonymity of the child at stake.

 Facing Saddam's Child Soldiers   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Given the large number of child soldiers in Iraq and their apparent importance to the regime's survival strategy, U.S. and allied forces should be prepared to face child soldiers in a potential invasion of Iraq.
Because Iraq's child soldiers have been rigorously indoctrinated by the regime, the flow of the war and even the disintegration of resistance by regular Iraqi military forces may have little impact on their actions.
When professional forces face child soldiers, their opponents are still children, a special category of individuals traditionally considered outside the scope of war.

 New Thinking
Singer is an activist as well as an academic, and therefore directs a great deal of his written material to the “average reader.” He tries his best to keep abstract philosophical theory out of his books, and in the debate on world hunger he claims not to rely on utilitarian premises for his argument.
Singer says you ought to save the child’s life no matter where in the world she may be dying so long as you have knowledge of it and the means with which to save her.
Singer has said that he believes the strong principle to be the correct one, but it seems to conflict with his modified version of impartiality discussed earlier.

 michael specter--title
Singer's philosophy is a contempo-rary version of utilitarianism, and its basic intellectual weaponry rests on a simple thought crafted by Jeremy Bentham, in the nineteenth century: all sentient creatures have an interest in avoiding pain.
Singer has been prevented from speaking at conferences in Germany, in Austria, and even in Switzerland, where he was once assaulted by people who saw in his philosophy an echo of the Nazi view that some lives are worth living and others are not.
Singer feels that this is unfair, and he may have a point: although he fails to live up to the rigid rules he has put down on paper, he probably comes as close to doing so as anyone could.

 AR.net >> Discussion Forum >> Re: Animals have no rights!
Singer, for example, says very plainly that we should give equal consideration to the interests of both humans and non-humans, which would make deciding between a child and a rabbit extremely problematic.
Singer and others can all it speciesist but I can merely point out that my sentiments toward my child also include killing non-human animals to extend and enhance my child's life.
Singer and Regan's problem is they have so many exceptions that they practically make the case for the intellectual appeal and power of speciesism.

Compulsory education laws mandate that the education of child actor not be disrupted while the child is working.
The activities of child actors are regulated by the governing labor union, if any, and state and federal laws.
In 1939, California weighed in on this controversy by enacting the original Coogan Law, amended at various times since, which requires a portion of the earnings of a child actor to be preserved in a special savings account called a blocked trust.
