Extractions: @import "style.css"; About me Links Photographs Résumé Name: Aaron Shaver Age: Location: Portland, Oregon Email: ashaver AT pdx DOT edu Physical: 6'1", blue/green mix eyes, slim build, strong legs School: Junior, psychology major, Portland State University Work: Part-time, computer technician Relationship status: Single and looking (for a female) Major non-career, non-school interests: Philosophy, meditation, walking, movies Other interests: My apartment is extremely minimalist. I love candy and anything sweet. I'm an introvert at heart, but I am comfortable in social situations and enjoy going out (especially to new restaurants, movie theaters, or walking and hiking). I don't smoke. I drink on social occasions. I'm somewhat of a news junkie, particularly for international politics. Plans: In the coming months, my goals are to save money in order to move to a new apartment, meet new people, and meditate more often. I will most likely graduate after completing the fall 2004 term, depending on whether I take summer classes (earlier) or classes are limited (later). Post-graduation is undecided. I will probably work full-time at a computer job. I might eventually move to California or a similarly sunny locale. Politics: Liberal/Democrat Religion: None

Alien Autopsy - "Tabloid" the future. . The activity is called Alien AutopsyA Case for SkepticalInquiry and you can copy it from this web site. The activity http://www.scire.com/pseudo/alinq.html
Extractions: A science teacher has developed an activity for use by other teachers and their students to help address the pseudoscience concepts that seem to be creeping their way into the classroom. The teacher believes that the increase in pseudoscience is related to an increase in pseudoscience types of television shows along with the ability of pseudo-scientific ideas to be easily "published" on the World Wide Web. "I like X-Files and Star Trek as much as anyone," the science teacher who lives in Sedona, Arizona said, "but I find many of my students believe in some of the shows, like Sightings and Unsolved Mysteries, that are presented as documentaries. We've got to face this issue now or it will continue to haunt us in the future." The activity is called: Alien AutopsyA Case for Skeptical Inquiry and you can copy it from this web site. The activity is free for any teacher to copy and use in class. Comments for improvements or discussion of its use should be sent to the author. The activity addresses one of the most popular pseudoscience ideas flying around, the UFO crash at Roswell, New Mexico and the film that supposedly was shot of autopsies of aliens recovered from the crash. He selected the Roswell Incident, as it's called, since there is a video available of the purported autopsies as well as a huge amount of information, both pro and con, on the Internet.

Extractions: In an effort to satirize Glenn Reynolds and his brand of "Weblogger Triumphalism," I have sometimes strayed from the strictly factual in this essay. In my opinion, it's pretty clear where I do this, but in case anyone has questions, I have compiled these notes. 1. Throughout most of the piece, I refer to Glenn Harlan Reynolds as Glenn Harlan Roberts. I do this as a tribute to John F. Burns, the wretched Big Media devil who made the mistake in the first place. 2. All quotes attributed to Reynolds/Roberts are genuine. 3. Joanne Jacobs did not invent the Internet, nor did she invent a content management application called Blog It! She is also not working on a new invention called "email." Finally, as far as I know she has never used her blog to agitate for an airstrike against Canada. 4. While Glenn Reynolds has appeared on Larry King Live , there's no real evidence (other than the remarkable prose similarities) that he ever sought Larry King's advice on web-logging. The photo that depicts their association is not actually a photo; it's an illustration. Also, Larry King is probably younger than 106. 5. The actual A.J. Liebling quote is "Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one."
