| Wednesday Aug 18, 2004 | Accidie is the medieval European notion of "sinful lethargy." Amae is the japanese notion of "indulgent dependence." Such ideas make us wonder if culture can affect what is considered an emotional state. This in turn might argue for a genetic linkage to emotional state. But then, maybe that's not such a good idea.

| Saturday Jul 3, 2004 | A recent report released by the National Marriage Project at Rutgers University, based on a survey of 1,010 heterosexual men aged 25 to 34, found that 53% of the respondents indicated they are not interested in getting married any time soon. Even more surprisingly, a significant number of eligible bachelors -- 22% percent agreed with a statement that marriage just isn't for them. Why are so many eligible bachelors deferring (or rejecting) the religious and legal bonds of marriage? Some people believe that we have placed marriage lower on our list of priorities in the sequence of events associated with the transition to adulthood in today's society -- after education, employment, and being financially independent. Unfortunately, sacrifices are sometimes made for these educational and professional accomplishments. As we reach our 30s, many of us recognize there's something big missing from our lives and have sought new ways to find our soulmate.

| Monday Apr 19, 2004 | What's up with gay marriages? On February 12 Mayor Gavin Newsom directed San Francisco City Hall to issue gender-neutral marriage licenses, allowing same-sex marriages. 4,161 gay weddings were performed until the conservative Christian lobbying groups Alliance Defense Fund and Campaign for California Families successfully petitioned the California Supreme Court to block the marriages beginning March 11th. On February 24 President Bush declared support for an amendment to the Constitution that would ban gay marriage, though passing such an amendment would require a lengthy approval process: two-thirds of the House and Senate, then passage in at least three-fourths of all state legislatures. There's a lot of debate about how things will eventually fall, but in the meantime the Massachusetts Supreme Court has ruled that Massachusetts must recognize same-sex marriage beginning May 17. America has heard from the lobbyists, pundits, reporters, lawyers and politicians, but what about the people actually getting married? Recording artists Green and Root have released a gorgeous, touching music video for the song "Marrying You" with footage from their actual City Hall wedding on February 13th, 2004. to Society by cricket |

| Thursday Feb 28, 2002 | The Enron scandal has become the world's most famous cautionary tale of what can happen when well-meaning CEOs like Kenneth Lay (Bush's leading financial patron and, completely coincidentally, co-author of Bush's energy policy (which regulates Enron)) are "duped" into doing horribly evil things without realizing it by just about everyone they've ever hired, done business with or met for the past sixteen years. ("Aw... Lay issums a poor wittle bumblingly-innocent bunny!") Happily there's a silver lining: the sudden widespread approval of corporate whistle-blowing is blossoming into one of the healthiest political trends in twenty years (law offices are reportedly swamped). And even non the non-Internet-savvy are catching on that it's an imprudent and needless gamble to invest in, partner with or accept a position at a company without first peeking through their dirty laundry. to Society by cricket |
