    Exaggerating Risks
    Most Heterosexuals Face
    Scant Peril but Receive Large Portion of Funds
    Less Goes to Gays, Addicts By Amanda Bennett and Anita Sharpe
    The Wall Street Journal In the summer of 1987, federal health officials made the fateful decision to bombard the public with a terrifying message: Anyone could get AIDS. While the message was technically true, it was also highly misleading. Everyone certainly faced some danger, but for most heterosexuals, the risk from a single act of sex was smaller than the risk of ever getting hit by lightning. In the U.S., the disease was, and remains, largely the scourge of gay men, intravenous drug users, their sex partners and their newborn children. Nonetheless, a bold public-relations campaign promised to sound a general alarm about AIDS, lifting it from a homosexual concern to a national obsession and accelerating efforts to eradicate the disease. For people devoted to public health, it seemed the best course to take. But nine years after the America Responds to AIDS campaign first hit the airwaves, many scientists and doctors are raising new questions. Increasingly, they worry that the everyone-gets-AIDS message still trumpeted not only by government agencies but by celebrities and the media is more than just dishonest: It is also having a perverse, potentially deadly effect on funding for AIDS prevention.

    Why Are We Back in Vietnam?
    I guess NYT columnist Frank Rich didn't get the memo back in February that said he was no longer an op/ed columnist. (He's now associate editor and writes for the arts section). His "arts" column today is really an op/ed but with a media "hook" that qualifies as "arts". That's OK with me, because I think Rich is better as an op/ed columnist than some in the Times' stable. He's a fiery writer, with a wickedability to phrase things just so. His article today, Why Are We Back in Vietnam? , is a scathing denunciation of the Bush Administration's attempt to "manage the news."
    The administration officials who stiffed "Frontline" habitually do the same to ABC's "Nightline." Ted Koppel explains why in a round-table discussion published in a new book from the Brookings Institution Press, "The Media and the War on Terrorism": "They would much rather appear on a program on which they're likely not to get a tough cross-examination." On Oct. 15, the week after the "Frontline" expos©, the White House was true to form when asked to provide a guest for a "Nightline" exploring the president's new anti-media media campaign.

Some of the unit history books written at the end of the war are sanitized, meaning there are few references to US losses or casualties.

    Many of these books are printed prior to 1965. Except for the booklets, very few are paperbacks. The booklets and manuals of last two categories are paperbacks issued to troops during the war. I've color-coded the Titles to indicate which books were printed before the end of the war, as follows:
    Book Titles (in purple) = printed during or immediately after the War
    Book Titles (in green) = printed after the war. However, some are modern reprints of older books.

Introduction Biography , the written account of an individual life. (An autobiography is a biography written by the subject.) The term biography connotes an artful, conscious literary genre that employs a wide range of sources, strategies, and insights; that deals with the intimate, inconsistent textures of personality and experience; and that attempts to render the whole sense of its subject, not the life only but what it was like to have lived it at its several stages. Ideally, the writer molds complex biographical facts—birth and death, education, ambition, conflict, milieu, work, relationship, accident—into a book that has the independent vitality of any creative work but is, at the same time, “true to life.” II.

Students should consider what characters would appear in such a film, who would play them, who would direct it, and what the title would be. They should also consider what image of Reagan the film maker would present. Students should design their posters and a promotional "blurb." When posters are finished, display them around the class.

    NOTES ON THE WORK OF CHARLES SANDERS PEIRCE
    Charles Sanders Peirce was born in Cambridge, MA, in 1839, and died in Milford, PA, in 1914. His father, Benjamin Peirce, was head of the mathematics department at Harvard University, and was a well-known mathematician. He introduced Charles to philosophy, and urged Charles to study all the well-known philosophers, and show where they were wrong in their thinking. Charles received two college degrees from Harvard. His early career was scientific, working in precision measurements for the U. S. Coastal Survey. However he studied philosophy on the side. After being abused in several positions, he moved to Milford, PA, where he would spend the last third of his life largely in writing the results of his philosophical and logical investigations. From time to time, he would give lectures. A notable series was presented at Harvard in his last years. While he published many articles, he also left much work unpublished. Since he died in poverty, the bulk of the unpublished work was purchased by Harvard University for a small amount, which helped his widow survive. Most of that material remained unread until the early 1930's, when funds were provided during the depression to occupy scholars. At that time much of his unpublished material was organized and published. Following that, scholars began to take note of his work. Many scholars wrote books about Peirce or edited portions of his work, which were then published. The first thorough biography appeared in 1993, from Joseph Brent, a historian, who had done most of the work as early as 1960, but had not been able to get permission to publish it.
