"Fortunately, although we cannot argue directly from the unity of
apperception to the unity of time (which would make the former a
sufficient condition of the latter), we can make the reverse move from
the *representation* of the unity of time to the unity of
apperception, and by this means we can connect the transcendental
synthesis of imagination with apperception and the categories. In
order to do this, we need only combine the results of the first half
of the Deduction with the doctrine that the unification or
determination of time is produced by the transcendental synthesis of
the imagination." (Allison [1986], 162.)

I'm not so much interested in Allison's focus on the representation of
the unity of time at the moment, as I am on the doctrine that the
"unification or determination of time is produced by the
transcendental synthesis of the imagination." This is the formal
intuition (of time) mentioned by Kant in his famously obscure footnote
at B162 n.

In 1969, John Rendall & Ace Berg saw a lion cub for sale in Harrods.

Cramped & lonely in a small cage, they decided to bring it home.

A local vicar allowed them to exercise the cub, now named Christian,
in the church grounds but he very quickly became too big for their
flat.

The only thing they could do was to try and reintroduce him to Africa,
which they managed to do.

A year later they wanted to visit him but were told that he was now
the head of his own pride and as such was completely wild and would
not remember them.

Undaunted, they went anyway.

After many hours of looking for the pride, this is what happened when
they finally found the WILD LION . . .

The war against "terror" should never have been fought. According to
Microsoft's Encarta Dictionary, terror is defined as "intense fear".
It is bad enough that America has declared its political system as
being at odds with a human emotion. But, militarily, war is hell, and
in a battle there is always much intense fear on both sides of the
conflict. With the Bush administration's policy premise set as
America's "War on Terror", we have ignored history, and the common
sense that military science teaches us, by conducting a war in which
America tries to avoid engagement. Why? Because to fight any battles
that may be necessarily bloody, would cause "intense fear".

So, how does America make amends to the error of its ways? I think
the first step is to define the enemy. Declaring war against
"statelessly" based individuals is impractical. Every terrorist must
train somewhere. And, the nations that do not police these groups in
their own borders are responsible for causing terrorism.

Norman Scarth is a World War 2 veteran, with five medals. He was
always a British patriot until he discovered that all was not well in
Britain.

What emerged is the fact that there is a secret cabal of nihilists,
who destroy their own country and wreck the lives of their own people
before going out into the world to destroy other nations:

This has been going on since at least 1712. Eight Popes of Rome spoke
against this terrorism. The terrorists themselves pretend that the
dispute is a minor theological one. They pretend that they are the
"good guys". In reality, they do such "good work" as to collect money
for charity. They do not mention that they do the "bad work" of
spending that money on WAR.

A team of scientists led by researchers from Princeton University has
discovered a new way that electrons behave in materials. The discovery
could lead to new kinds of electronic devices.

In this election it is worth mentioning an area that does not feature
in the list of hot election issues, but which demonstrates to the
whole world what makes American great.
American is free; its citizens are free. America is the richest
country in the world and best at everything. It is because each and
every American is free to choose his or her own destiny, and spend
their cash exactly how they wish.
Thus American ranks a pitiful 42nd in terms of life expectancy, below
almost every other developed country on earth. But despite this SOME
Americans are longer lived than any on earth.
The disparity between Connecticut, a rich state, and Mississippi for
life expectancy is a staggering 30 years!
47 million Americans cannot afford health insurance.
The US has dropped from second place in 1990 to 12th place in terms of
human development, and has THE HIGHEST child poverty of any of the
richest countries on earth (it is good to see that the US is best at
some things).
Some 14%%, that is 40 million Americans lack basic literacy. This is
not because it has a higher standard - its standards are widely
regarded on the "lite" side. ...

Markets Don't Fail!, by Brian P. Simpson, is a condensed treatise that
integrates the philosophy of Objectivism with the field of economics.

The book covers such issues as: capitalism vs. socialism, monopoly,
antitrust laws, predatory pricing, externalities, regulation,
environmentalism, economic inequality, "public goods", and asymmetric
information.

The following are some excerpts from the book:

"The moral judgments in the previous section are based on an
acceptance of the validity of the ethical theory of egoism. This
ethical theory says that one's only moral concern should be to pursue
one's own rational self-interest. This means that each individual
should act to sustain and further his own life and happiness." (p. 13)

Things must be slow if people are responding to Amanda.
So here's one.
I was at the National Pistol Matches at Camp Perry, OH
earlier this month. There were at least couple of thousands of us
at the base with at least twice as many guns. Of the 700 of us
that competed we fired about 420,000 rounds. I estimated
total bullets shot weighed about 9,000 lbs. This was over
6 days. The following week were the rifle matches.

Well anyway we all had a great time and...
...no one got hurt or shot.
