	The Confusions of Pleasure (Timothy Brook) - review
		The founder of the Ming dynasty, the Hongwu emperor, came from a peasant background and idealised autonomous, self-sufficient agrarian communities; the dynasty he founded, however, was to oversee the economic transformation of China.
		Timothy Brook's study of this in The Confusions of Pleasure is more a cultural than an economic history, focusing on changing attitudes to trade and commerce and their effects on everyday life.
		The Confusions of Pleasure will be a gold-mine for those curious about the historical underpinnings of Chinese commercial traditions — and the gap between the ideology and the reality of economic life under the Ming is reminiscent of modern China — but is recommended to anyone curious about other ways of viewing the world.

	Histology Learning System - Common Confusions
		These two organs may be easily confused because the simple columnar epithelium and what appear to be villi lining the lumen of the gall bladder appear to be of the jejunum (given that there are no Brunner’s glands or Peyer’s patches).
		These two sections may be confused because the villi of the duodenum are numerous and tall, making the apparent full thickness of the duodenal mucosa thicker than the wall’s muscle layers.
		The scattered clumps of pale foamy cells seen in superficial sections through the scalp are sebaceous glands, and not to be confused with the foamy-looking discontinuous layer of theca interna cells encircling ovarian follicles.

	The Moral Confusions of Race
		The current state of confusion over racial matters is often attributed to the affirmative action mindset and the demise of the colorblind ideal.
		And yet, as the colorblind approach falls from favor, racial divisions in society appear to be deepening, with racial segregation intensifying and racial confusion spreading.
		But beyond all the confusions and suffocations, the steady stream of racism charges is wearing down society’s confidence in its moral capacity.

	CD Baby: THE CONFUSIONS: Trampoline
		Coming from the same neighbourhood in Sundsvall, The Confusions started in the early nineties more for the fun of it than some burning passion to become popstars.
		IIn September 1998 their hometown Sundsvall was giving the honour of being "Popstad 1999" by the national radio P3 and The Confusions definitively did have part in that nomination.
		But it was not until spring 2002 that he could squeeze in a recording with the Confusions in his tight schedule.

	The Confusions : United Global Artists : Sweden

	Confusions and Delusions by Paul Hein
		There seems to be a persistent confusion of a country with its government and its people.
		When a government adopts a policy of sending its best and brightest off to fight and die, if necessary, in some foreign battle, it always refers to itself as the "country," as though it were, reluctantly no doubt, acceding to the spontaneous wishes of the people to go kill some foreigners.
		The roles are confused: the servants become the masters; the sovereigns labor on behalf of their subjects!

	lifeissues.net \| Some Common Confusions and Clarifications
		The study of philosophy is supposed to help bring clarification to an otherwise confusing and confused world through a process of distinguishing.
		This is the necessary condition for freedom; for a confused person is not a free person, because the truth alone sets us free (Jn 8, 32).
		Another confusion very much akin to the confusion between bigotry and moral conviction is the confusion between approval and tolerance and tolerance and love.

	The Confusions of Pleasure: Commerce and Culture in Ming China
		Timothy Brook's The Confusions of Pleasure began as a chapter for the Cambridge History of China surveying communication and commerce in Ming China (1368-1644).
		As the author writes, this straight-forward task appears to have expanded to examine the influence of economic change on social and cultural life.
		Thus, at the same time most gentry were bemoaning the effects of the market economy, the bulk of them were eagerly accommodating themselves to the new situation, (hence the confusions of pleasure).

	New Confusions for Old: Rome and Justification
		This confusion of the metaphysical with the ethical has been characteristic of Rome's interpretation of both the fall of man and his redemption.
		The Romanist is still quite confused on this matter, and until he will allow himself to think God's thoughts after Him -- i.e., let the Bible itself shape his categories of understanding -- he will remain confused.
		Hahn's confusion of the metaphysical and the ethical leads him into dangerous error claiming that the believer is absorbed into deity by virtue of his adoption.

	How to Use History to Clarify Common COnfusions in Geometry
		Thus, even though the topic of this volume is the use of more recent history of mathematics in our courses, we will start (as we do with our students) with a quick look back to various historical strands that can help us understand the issues surrounding these questions.
		Nevertheless, many writers are confused, for example: Katz in the excellent history text [40, p 782] says that one of the “two possible negation of Euclid’s parallel postulate” leads to spherical geometry.
		Students are confused when reading in the literature that “straight line” is an undefined term, or that straight lines on the sphere are “defined to be arcs of great circles”.

	Automation Interface Confusions Straightened Out
		It is not particular to Delphi, in fact much of this is hidden when using Delphi to control an Automation server.
		Confusion arises because there are three different levels of Automation/IDispatch-related functionality that a server may or may not implement, and thus three ways that an automation controller can access the server's Automation interface.
		This is because the dispinterface section is not an interface declaration per se -- instead it's a special syntax used to indicate that, given that the server has an implementation of IDispatch, here are the functions that you can access through that IDispatch's Invoke method, and the DispIds for each one.

		There are three main points of confusion in the Social Security debate (confusion that is deliberately created, for the most part, but never mind that for now).
		How to think about implicit liabilities in the far future: privatizers brush aside the huge negative fiscal consequences of their plans in the short run, claiming that reductions in promised payments many decades in the future are an adequate offset

	CrimProf Blog: New Article Spotlight: Some Common Confusions About Consent in Rape Cases
		Consent is both a single concept in law and a multitude of opposing and cross-cutting conceptions of which courts and commentators tend to be only dimly aware.
		In so far as we are unaware of the ways in which this conceptual framework structures the way we think about consent, we risk confusing ourselves and others in undertaking to make the law of rape more just.
		Some examples are (1) confusion as to whether the defense of consent ought to be deemed to consist of a mental state on a woman's part or an expression; (2) confusion about the relationship between consent to sexual intercourse and resistance to it; and (3) confusion about the relationship between force and non-consent.

		I will explain where the confusion lies and perhaps someone can explain what I'm not getting.

	Plato [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Diogenes says that Plato was twenty-eight when Socrates was put to death (in 399), which would, again, put his year of birth at 427.
		In spite of the confusion, the dates of Plato's life we gave above, which are based upon Eratosthenes' calculations, have traditionally been accepted as accurate.
		Socrates is represented as extremely agile in question-and-answer, which has come to be known as "the Socratic method of teaching," or "the elenchus" (or elenchos-from the Greek term for refutation), with Socrates nearly always playing the role as questioner, for he claimed to have no wisdom of his own to share with others.

		Although these words are often confused, such confusion is a sure sign of an incomplete education.
		Affect is also a common verb that means “have an influence on [something].” Effect is a common noun that serves as a synonym for influence.
		Effect is also a rarely used verb that means “bring to reality” or “cause to become real.” The slightly confusing thing here is that when one “affects” someone or something, one causes an “effect” on that person or thing.

		They aren’t really saying that U.S. government bonds are worthless; their point is that the whole notion of a separate budget for social security is a fiction.
		Just to set the record straight, so their isn’t any more confusion than already exists: I do not believe in privatization of social security.

	Confusions and confessions \| csmonitor.com
		Without ever sacrificing Father Frank's humanity or our credulity, Keneally portrays "exactly the sort of unsullied, unworldly, yet not stupid young man the seminary sought." Indeed, he seems at first like the kind of person all of us should strive to be, or to be again.
		But there's a tragic theme running through this fable about the cost of confusing spiritual innocence with emotional immaturity.
		The novel follows Frank on a kind of pilgrim's progress, a virgin errand into the wilderness of real life that explores the author's uncanny insights into the nature of sin and redemption.
