PEACS Subject

I m an adaptationist, possibly too much of an adaptationist, but if something happens in science over and over again and the net result is scientific progress, then just possibly this behaviour, as unpleasant as it may be to those involved, may be doing some good. Objectivity through subjectivity may sound as mistaken as bombs for peace, but possibly not. 

This event caused reactions abroad, the extent of which had so far not been realized by most of the German participants. The English and French naturally expressed themselves very pointedly on the subject. Nobody wants a war, and hopes for peace are still being cherished, but they felt certain that in case of any further arbitrary proceedings in Germany s foreign policy, war would be unavoidable. 

Think local, not global. Large societal or political issues are usually not personal. Subjects such as Middle East peace, September 11, and Columbine have been expounded upon by experts in the media, and you probably don t have a unique perspective (unless you were personally involved or personally impacted). Think specific and personal, rather than abstract and far away from your everyday life. 

Avoid cliches. The typical admissions officer reads hundreds of essays each winter. You won t stand out, and you ll run the risk of boring him or her, if you write about a subject also chosen by dozens of other students. What s been done too many times before Here are a few subjects virtually guaranteed to bore your audience how you ve been influenced by a famous person, the death of a grandparent, losing the big game, why you want peace in the Middle East, etc. 

The control subjects did not experience many phenomena of the mystical typology, and even then only to a low degree of completeness. The phenomena for which the scores of the controls were closest to (although still always less than) the experimentals were blessedness and peace, sense of sacredness, love, and persisting positive changes in attitude and behavior toward others and toward the experience. 

Far more disappointing than the theft, was the realisation that Trix had manipulated her, directing her enthusiasm to ensure Aphrodite s agreement to her proposed plan. Others who had reasoned out Aphrodite s nature had subjected her to similar manipulations and it was another hollow-tipped reminder that so many of her emotions were not her own. A reminder that freedom only ever came in the company of crowds or in the peace of utter solitude. 

The American verdict in Case VII (SouthEast Trial) demanded another prerequisite, namely a link between the place of the crime and that of the reprisal the victims of the reprisal, it said, should come from the same area where the unlawful attack took place.96 We have not found this prerequisite expressed anywhere else in the subject literature. Further, it is not justified. The required characteristic of military necessity for the reprisal action means that there must be an inquiry into whether the action and its scope was militarily necessary. In this way, even if there is no connection between the location of the crime and that of the reprisal, a retrospective observer may perceive the military necessity in, for example, the circumstance that a reprisal managed to restore peace to a previously unruly region. 

I told Mrs. Gill that he had ordered servants to be hired and rooms aired. She said, Extra staff will need paying. I hope he knows that, but I chose to ignore this uncomfortable subject and walked away. Reverend Shales called again, she added. He left you this. There was a book on the table, a brown, leather-bound volume with a slip of paper between the pages. I kept my distance. That book was a reminder of the years I had spent with my father, the life I had not chosen. Besides, the book was from Shales—a peace offering, maybe. Well, I wouldn t touch it. I couldn t. It had nothing to do with me. 

It is claimed that drugs provide mystical experience and that this has valid religious content. Mystical experience may be defined as a combination of feelings of unity (oneness with nature and/or God), ineffability (experience beyond the subject s power to express), joy (peace, sacredness), knowledge (insight into truths of life and values, illuminations), and transcendence (of space and time).
