The advent of internet has been rightly hailed as perhaps the best thing that happened to communication. But the government is warning that criminals have also discovered the internet as a rich avenue for crime, with Kenyans reportedly conned around 2 billion shillings this year alone in cyber crime that especially targets the financial sector. Michael Njenga has the details.

STEM activities / challenges with STEM tales! STEM tales are a series of STEM challenges that are accessible for your youngest budding engineers; they use a fairy tale that your students are likely already familiar with. By adding in a story element, those students that might typically shy away from STEM activities may find joy in transporting themselves into a story to solve a problem. Please see the individual files for previews of each activity. Included in this bundle are the following 3 STEM Tales:

**Please note**
Because this activity involves shooting an "arrow" (which can be an unsharpened pencil or a cotton swab), please be sure that you can section off a safe shooting range. Large appliance boxes are excellent for this, as they contain the testing portion. Another option is to use it at the end of your school year and test out the bows at field day! I have successfully used this activity in a small classroom of kids in grades 1-3, but we had an advance discussion about safety precautions, as well as a one-archer-at-a-time policy.

This is the long version of my argument with Dr. David Shormann, and it shows why he would be no good on a radio show. He was all over the place, constantly interrupting everything said, changing the subject to irrelevant topics, trying to gain superiority in whatever topic he could, and just being completely unreasonable and generally objectionable. He was so obnoxious in fact, that when I finally broke away from him, I turned to Eric Hovind and admitted that even he was neither as odious nor as dishonest as David Shormann.

Just to clarity:
(1a) A presuppositionalist is one who engages in or endorses Presuppositional apologetics. Opponants of presuppositionalism are NOT presuppositionalists.
(1b) According to Wikipedia, a 'presupposition' is an implicit assumption about the world or background belief relating to an utterance whose truth is taken for granted in discourse. Examples of presuppositions include:
Jane no longer writes fiction.
Presupposition: Jane once wrote fiction.
Have you stopped eating meat?
Presupposition: you had once eaten meat.
Have you talked to Hans?
Presupposition: Hans exists.

I have no such presuppositions.


One might argue how I must 'presuppose' that reality is real, but I do not. Reality is real by definition. Besides, the laws of reality would still apply to us even if our existence were an illusion, such as in a dream of Brahma, or a computer-enhanced hallucination like the Matrix. Thus reality must be accepted as real if we are to make sense out of anything.

Shormann uses presuppositions; I do not. That's why he would sooner question the reality of reality itself than doubt his deity.


(2a) Reason: The ability to reason, of being capable of reason, of being reasonable, and able to be reasoned with -are all juxtoposed against the blind closed-mindedness of faith-based assertions.
(2b) To be rational and to think rationally, to base one's postulations on sound logic and evidence rather than subjective impressions or emotional attachments.

Shormann has rejected reason as a necessary requirement of presuppositionalism; I do not deny reason; I am an advocate of reason. That's why I had VIP status at the Reason Rally.


(3) Magic: (a) the use of means (as charms or spells) believed to have supernatural power over natural forces. (b) magic rites [blessings] or incantations [speaking anything into existence] (c) an extraordinary power or influence seemingly from a supernatural source, such as witch, wizard, devil, or deity.

David Shormann obviously believes in magic where I clearly do not.


(4) The Nazis were mostly Christian and almost exclusively creationist. Absolutely all the arguments I have ever seen from any of theirs or their successor's propaganda stem from creationist assumptions and religious motivations rather than racial knowledge. Hitler even said so himself.

And finally, I started posting to Freethought Blogs because PZ invited me there, and I consider him a friend. I continue blogging there because a lot of people have strange opinions against that forum, and I find their woefully wrong generalizations personally amusing.

Country star describes shock of learning of massacre, sheltering in place.

The Rohingya, an ethnic group from Arakan, Myanmar (Burma), is one of most persecuted minorities in the world. The past military Junta delisted the Rohingyas from the Burmese Ethnic groups just few years after independence of Burma. Since then, the Burmese Military government has continued to exercise a systematic, discriminatory and extremely abusive policy against the Rohingyas. All renowned international human rights organizations and agencies have documented the sufferings of the Rohingyas.

At the beginning of 2012, a group of Rohingya youth from various media background gathered with a view to creating a media channel to create awareness of the Rohingya issues and address the problems related to the Rohingya.

Hence on 21st April 2012, RVision (Rohingya Vision) was born.

On 28th May 2012, when the extremist Rakhine in collaboration with government officials started burning Rohingya houses, killing innocent kids and raping helpless women, RVision was successful in bringing a comprehensive coverage of the events through its network and has being praised by the Rohingya people.

Today RVision broadcast its various programs in several languages such as Rohingya, Burmese, English and Arabic.

Its videos and programs on YouTube video hosting site are the most viewed videos amidst the Rohingya viewers.
