Solipsism and the Problem of Other Minds [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] For on this view what I know immediately and with greatest certainty are the events which occur in my own mind - my thoughts, my emotions, my perceptions, my desires, etc. - and these are not known in this way by anyone else. Although this view utilises language and involves the employment of conceptual categories ('the individual', 'other minds', etc.) which are inimical to solipsism, it was nonetheless fundamentally conducive historically to the development of solipsistic patterns of thought. www.iep.utm.edu /s/solipsis.htm

Coronado National Forest - Home Page Views are spectacular from these mountains, and visitors may experience all four seasons during a single day's journey, wandering through the desert among giant saguaro cactus and colorful wildflowers in the morning, enjoying lunch beside a mountain stream, and playing in the snow later in the afternoon. As part of the Forest Service’s Rooms With A View program, a small cabin at Kentucky Camp is available for overnight stays, for up to 4 people. “…where conflicting interests must be reconciled, the question will always be decided from the standpoint of the greatest good of the greatest number in the long run.” Gifford Pinchot, Chief Forester, 1905 www.fs.fed.us /r3/coronado/index.shtml   (413 words)

Fodder - A blog from the heart of zaLand: Great South Africans It is my view that this position of having such unanimity on our greatest person must be good for the spirit of a country, we’re able to rally behind an individual with no debate about his status and that must promote patriotism and unity amongst the different groups in the country. Certainly Mandela is a world icon and in my (admittedly biased view) probably the greatest person of the previous century. The different presenters of the advert specifically request that we don’t vote for Nelson Mandela as everybody knows that he is the greatest South African, and by some miles. fodder.blogs.com /fodder/2004/06/great_south_afr.html   (413 words)

"Amateur Astronomy". Planets Apparent Motion Greatest western and eastern elongations occur when the inferior planet, on its orbit, is at its maximum angle, West or East, from the Sun, as seen from Earth. Contrarily to what might be thought, this greatest angle occurs before the planet reaches its western or eastern elongation The main effect is from an observational point of view as in the southern hemisphere planets are seen upside-down and often lying on their edge in the equatorial regions stars5.netfirms.com /planetee.htm   (413 words)

The View From Here : David Davies' Weblog I am not a particularly literary person but Shakespeare must surely deserve the title of greatest Briton for being the quintessential English literary genius and therefore possibly the person who most usually comes to mind when thinking of all things British. The BBC has compiled a list of the 100 greatest Britons as voted for by the great British public. Over the next 5 weeks we can all vote to place the top 10 greatest Britons (as nominated by the public) into an order of merit. david.davies.name /weblog/categories/theviewfromhere/2002/10/21.html   (413 words)

World view: Deism Their understanding of God is incompatible with their stand against Miracles, as creating the world is the greatest possible miracle. Deism holds with theism that God created the world but denies his supernatural intervention in it on the grounds that the world operates by natural and self-sustaining laws of the Creator. God is beyond the world, but not active in the world in a supernatural way. www.iwriteiam.nl /GEwv_d.html   (268 words)

Vodkapundit - The Five Greatest Concept Albums Ever, Period The concept is an extramarital affair told from the girlfriend's point of view leading to a confrontation with the wife when she decides she can't share anymore (side one) and the wife's acceptance that the marriage is over and that she has to get on with her life (side two). I think the definition of a concept album is this: Rather than use the vinyl to record 8 to 12 seperate concepts, the songs,(even if they have a common theme), the band uses the vinyl as the canvas for their single concept. Best line from this album is from the girlfriend on the advantages of being involved with a married man "you don't have to wash nobody's funky drawers but your own". vodkapundit.com /archives/007908.php   (7861 words)

Again, the glowing Sun, Moon and Earth have formed a conjunctive orbital configuration. www.filmsite.org /twot.html   (656 words)

Greatest Hits Request Of The Week Berlin, writes Rosen, 'had tried to kick-start the Tin Pan Alley Christmas song some years before.' In 1912, the year after his first big hit with 'Alexander's Ragtime Band', he'd published 'Christmas Time Seems Years and Years Away', which, from his point of view, it was. Some songs are standards - they endure decade after decade.And a few very rare songs reach way beyond either category, to embed themselves so deeply in the collective consciousness they become part of the soundtrack of society. Before radio, before a real record industry, the sheet music business couldn't see the point of working a song that would be dead on 26 December. www.steynonline.com /index2.cfm?edit_id=29   (2797 words)

Untitled Document Click here to view the general greatest integer function. For each of the spreadsheets and graphs of the greatest integer function I chose x to begin at a negative number and for the "step" between each x to be 0.1. Now let's look at a different function, the greatest integer function y = a[bx + c] +d, where the brackets [] denote the "floor function" or the "greatest integer function" which rounds the resulting sum, difference, product or quotient down to the nearest whole integer. www.auburn.edu /~altense/writeup1.htm   (280 words)

Math Forum - Ask Dr. Math I read the answer in the Dr. Math archives: Greatest Integer Functions http://mathforum.org/library/drmath/view/54251.html which provides insight into [[x]] = [[y]]. Date: 08/06/2003 at 16:09:10 From: Michael McQuilken Subject: Greatest Integer I am trying to correctly interpret [[x]]^2 + [[y]]^2 = 1, where f(x) = [[x]], is the Greatest Integer function. In general, when you graph an equation of the form f([[x]],[[y]]) = 0 the result is a collection of unit squares, each with its lower left corner at a lattice point (x,y) that satisfies f(x,y) = 0 If you have any further questions, feel free to write back. mathforum.org /library/drmath/view/63770.html   (280 words)

freethought.ca :: Forums :: View topic - Greatest Canadian In the end, there's just too much going against him to be greatest Canadian, and more than that, the feelings of animosity are still to high for him to even come close to making the top 10. He was a brash know-it-all, and his attempts - successful it seems - to enshrine himself in Canadian history are the single greatest factor for the strength of Quebec separatism in 95. That's enough reason not to consider him at all-and Canadians were not going to elect another Prime Minister during wartime, so his longevity should not really be a serious consideration. www.freethought.ca /forum/viewtopic.php?t=533   (2259 words)

History of the Panama Railroad Their only monument today is the Panama Railroad, the completion of which marked one of the greatest achievements of the age and will ever be a memorial to the dauntless courage of its brave builders and their story is one of the most gallant in the annals of commerce. The important work accomplished by the railroad and steamship line during the world war is a definite illustration of the high degree of organization attained by the road in efficiency, which enabled them to achieve remarkable results. The completion of the Panama Railroad marked a revolutionary period in the world's traffic, and the immediate effects on transportation of the rapidly increasing demands of commerce were such that they could not be met at the beginning. www.trainweb.org /panama/history1.html   (2259 words)

Amazon.ca: Music: 20 Greatest Hits Not too many "greatest hits" packages can make that claim and, solely from the point of view of a completist collector, that makes this a 5-star offering. Other major American hits included Let me be, You baby, You know what I mean and You showed me. Some of the others were only modest hits but 17 of the 20 songs here made the Billboard top 100 with another (Me about you) just failing to make it, bubbling under at 105.

D.W. Griffith:: A Bibliography of Materials in the UC Berkeley Libraries Most of Griffith's 30 or so Biograph short films with significant Indian content have plots and motifs designed to evoke feelings of outraged moral sentiment in audiences and thus seem to support the view that Griffith's Indian melodramas are sympathetic toward Native Americans. The first film focuses on the films Griffith directed while working for the Biograph Company from 1908 through 1913 and includes an interview with actress Blanche Sweet.

Who's Greatest Hits I defend this album a tiny bit because it gave me a little glimpse of Quadrophenia when I was being introduced to the Who's Music, but now I have a different point of view. This is one of the first who albums I ever bought and subsequently had a great influence on me. There are a few songs that I have no idea what in the hell they are about. I agree that the album is weak for it's lack of a true career retrospective. www.thewho.net /reviews/whosgreatest.htm   (1285 words)

A View from the Other Side - You’da thunk they’da figgered it out… It isn’t that I don’t actually care about the greatest 100 South Africans, it’s that I don’t think anyone is qualified to create such a list, and popular vote doesn’t ensure that those nominated are truly great. I recall seeing adverts on TV for voting for the 100 greatest South Africans. Well I thought the whole idea of what a great South African is was totally lost on a lot of people. www.blog.mweb.co.za /users/sweetviolet/24891.html   (6092 words)

DVD Breakdown The Movie Lover's DVD Site The Parallax View may be the greatest conspiracy thriller ever made. The montage sequence in the middle of the movie, designed as a psychological test by the Parallax corporation, is a further illustration of the technique Pakula uses in telling this story: no dialogue, just images and their juxtaposition creating meaning for the viewer. There is no dialogue or further explanation as Beatty comes into the frame and walks past the camera. www.dvdbreakdown.com /titles/parallax.html   (607 words)

The Parallax View Gordon Willis (The Landlord, Klute, The Godfather, The Parallax View, The Godfather Part II, All the President's Men, Annie Hall, Interiors, Manhattan, Stardust Memories) is cinema's all time greatest cinematographer, a light painter of unsurpassable talent and worth. View still feels so fresh because it doesn't pull punches (unflappable rule: unsentimental always ages better than sentimental), and like Klute, by relying as much, if not more, on the eerie, unshakable Willis visuals than dialogue and characterization. Plus The Parallax View features a brainwashing sequence that is among the best five minutes ever put on celluloid, mesmerizing, miraculous work, so powerful I imagine Kubrick wishes he had conceived of it himself to have placed into A Clockwork Orange. www.jaredsapolin.com /theparallaxview.html   (298 words)

Amazon.com: Decade: Greatest Hits [IMPORT]: Music Duran Duran would release six albums in the 1980s and there is representation from each of the albums, plus the title song from the James Bond movie "A View To A Kill" (which was their only U.S. #1 period). I just think it's weird when I post a bunch of Duran Duran comments (or edit them) in one day and like ten hours after their up (or maybe even less time) there is a non-helpful vote for each and every one of them, even the obscure Arcadia CD. Duran Duran's sixth album "Big Thing" would continue along the same trend started in "Notorious" and "Decade" includes two weak songs - "I Don't Want Your Love" and "All She Wants Is". www.amazon.com /exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B000002UVM?v=glance   (2284 words)
