Steve Case is the chairman of the board and will be so after the meeting. All other discussion is just rumor and speculation.

I want to see Republicans and sometimes Democrats stop using the immigrant community as a punching bag. It's a just a mean-spirited bill that does nothing to further the public's understanding, or legitimate discussion of these concerns.

There's been no discussion of Atlanta whatsoever, but that doesn't mean it can't come up in the future. In terms of knowing what to expect with the [bankruptcy] filing, we're at the starting gate. We just don't know what Delta's going to do. It's a question that has no answers right now.

It's outrageous. We've been pushing for these things for years, and they do it for supervisors rather than have a discussion with us on who is best suited for this. It's a total disregard for the real human capital that exists.

It's going to be an interactive performance and discussion. Charles is a master pianist and acclaimed educator. It seemed like a perfect fit to give the week an educational element. He is referred to as the grandfather of jazz in this area.

We decided it would just be fun for everyone who was interested to get together and share a meal from different cultures and spend time together talking about whatever came up but the focus being on some kind of multicultural food and discussion and education.

We welcome freedom of speech and schools are encouraged to provide a forum for discussion on campus. But the district does not condone students trying to enter other campuses and disrupting the educational process.

It is 17 years since he held this lecture, and he had a lot of time to think about it. And so, [this] is a first time to talk about this discussion in Austria, which had been 17 years ago.

Definitely, that means that 2,700 will be losers, [obviously]. Now, how and if they will accept the result of the ballot, that is something that is still under discussion, due also to the cultural [complexity] of the Afghan society.

I don't think the government can really sort out the many billions of SMS messages for passages that might have destabilizing political content, though it might be easier to catch discussion about, say, drug trafficking or other blatantly criminal activity. But registering people would have a chilling effect, in that people would know they could potentially be linked to illegal messages and activities.

Our jury was touched by FIBROM-L's activity in supporting a group of people facing a debilitating and often misdiagnosed condition. FIBROM-L has created an outstanding community through the sound use of email list technology, and I'm pleased to reward this work and dedication with the LISTSERV Choice Discussion Award.

It does a real disservice to this discussion to have an analysis that makes unfounded and inaccurate conclusions.

Today the tables have turned and Russia's moves against Ukraine could trigger a serious, merit-based discussion about energy security by the EU.

Many Americans wonder if we're willing to use force to defend the country even under the most compelling of circumstances,.. The majority of Democrats would answer that question that, yes, there is a right place and a right time. We don't get to have that discussion because many people don't think we have the backbone.

The three creative prototypes, the scientist, the artist, and the saint, know instinctively, without the help of any mere philosopher, that each must obey an absolute rule of conduct. Three words established and hallowed by usage express the divinities, the values, the supreme aims served respectively by these three kinds of men with an undivided loyalty: truth for the scientist; beauty for the artist; goodness for the saint. The discussion on what these words mean will never end. We must be content with taking note of their clarity as symbols, and of the singular force which animates them and makes of them powerful poles of attraction.

Some people flinch when you talk about art in the context of the needs of society thinking you are introducing something far too common for a discussion of art. Why should art have a purpose and a use? Art shouldn't be concerned with purpose and reason and need, they say. These are improper. But from the very beginning, it seems to me, stories have indeed been meant to be enjoyed, to appeal to that part of us which enjoys good form and good shape and good sound.

Something else emerges from this discussion about us as human individuals: we're not fixed, stable intellects riding along peering at the world through the lenses of our eyes like the pilots of people-shaped spacecraft. We are affected constantly by what's going on around us. Whether our flexibility is based in neuroplasticity or in less dramatic aspects of the brain, we have to start acknowledging that we are mutable, persuadable and vulnerable to clever distortions, and that very often what we want to be is a matter of constant effort rather than attaining a given state and then forgetting about it. Being human isn't like hanging your hat on a hook and leaving it there, it's like walking in a high wind: you have to keep paying attention. You have to be engaged with the world.

Oh, you mean he's dead,' said Grandmother. She started thinking about all the euphemisms for death, all the anxious taboos that had always fascinated her. It was too bad you could never have an intelligent discussion on the subject. People were either too young or too old, or else they didn't have time. [p. 131]

The conversation progressed, bumper-car style, to a very heated discussion about death and the survival of the soul. It amazes me that we, as a species, can argue so fervently over something that is, when all is said and done, unknowable and unprovable. Nonetheless, we all arrive at conclusions and cleave to our certainties: that there is nothing but the Void; or that we will find ourselves writing an admissions exam at the Pearly Gates.

Do you know, the only people I can have a conversation with are the Jews? At least when they quote scripture at you they are not merely repeating something some priest has babbled in their ear. They have the great merit of disagreeing with nearly everything I say. In fact, they disagree with almost everything they say themselves. And most importantly, they don't think that shouting strengthens their argument.

[Doubt] is not a new idea; this is the idea of the age of reason. This is the philosophy that guided the men who made the democracy that we live under. The idea that no one really knew how to run a government led to the idea that we should arrange a system by which new ideas could be developed, tried out, and tossed out if necessary, with more new ideas bought in - a trial-and-error system. This method was a result of the fact that science was already showing itself to be a successful venture at the end of the eighteenth century. Even then it was clear to socially minded people that the openness of possibilities was an opportunity, and that doubt and discussion were essential to progress into the unknown. If we want to solve a problem that we have never solved before, we must leave the door to the unknown ajar.. Doubt is not to be feared, but welcomed and discussed.
