Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), alias liver protein, olulin, referred to as: SOD. SOD is an active substance derived from living organisms that can eliminate harmful substances produced by organisms during metabolism. The body's constant supplementation of SOD has the special effect of anti-aging. Superoxide Dismutase (EC220.127.116.11, SOD) was first discovered by Marn et al. in 1938 when superoxide dismutase was isolated from bovine red blood cells. People have studied SOD for more than 70 years. History. In 1969, McCord and others re-discovered this protein, and found that their biological activity and the catalyzed disproportionation reaction of peroxy anions were officially named superoxide dismutase.
Function and Application
1. Drugs Mainly concentrated in patients with inflammatory diseases, especially in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, chronic polyarthritis, myocardial infarction, cardiovascular disease, cancer patients and patients with radiation therapy inflammatory diseases.
2. Biochemical Pharmacy As a biochemical enzyme preparation, it is widely used in clinical and scientific research, anti-aging, anti-tumor, and regulation of human endocrine system.
3. Cosmetics It can be added to cosmetics and has excellent performance against oxidation and corrosion. Cosmetics with SOD as the main component have swept the world, triggering a revolution in the history of cosmetics, making humanity a youthful and beautiful dream come true.
4. Health food, beverage SOD sugar, SOD oral liquid, SOD dry beer, etc. are very popular. The addition of SOD to foods such as beverages, confectionery, and cakes can not only utilize its corrosion resistance to extend the shelf life, but also regulate the human endocrine system.
SOD is a naturally occurring superoxide radical scavenging factor in the body, which converts harmful superoxide radicals into hydrogen peroxide by the above reaction. Although hydrogen peroxide is still a harmful oxygen species to the body, the extremely strong catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) in the body immediately break it down into completely harmless water. In this way, the three enzymes form a complete antioxidant chain.

Anti-LRT protest planned for Green Line's opening day
|$957 million later, the first passenger-carrying Green Line trains will roll past the Weisman tomorrow.|
Steve Ellenwood, a Woodbury resident who describes himself as "very active" in Republican politics, is organizing an anti-LRT protest planned to take place during the Green Line's opening day tomorrow.
"We're just a group of people that are very, very concerned about the financial commitment we've subjected future generations to," Ellenwood tells us. "When you listen to proponents of this, you keep hearing them say [LRT] is going to cut congestion, which is a bunch of BS. That's already proven not to be true."
Green Line LRT will indeed get you home after bar close time [NEW TIME-LAPSE VIDEO]
"There's no density and there's no demand," Ellenwood continues. "There's a duplication of service. There's no business case and that's proven because of the subsidies that have to be put in."
Ellenwood says he hopes up to 200 people will turn out for his protest, which he's organizing via texting and Facebook. The plan is for protesters to walk around Green Line stops with anti-LRT signs.
Though the specific messaging is still in the works, Ellenwood says the theme will be that "there's no reason to be building this with the transit system we have."
"The money that we're spending is just phenomenal, and that's what concerning," Ellenwood continues. "If you choose to live on a bus line it's pretty functional to get where you need to go, so why are we having to put billions of dollars into something that's duplicating that service while our roads and bridges are collapsing?"
We brought Ellenwood's concerns to Metro Transit spokesman John Siqueland.
"Like public education or public safety, public transit does not exist to turn a profit," Siqueland tells us. "The operation of public transit is subsidized not only in Minnesota but around the world. Our metro Blue Line has a history of being at the top of its class when it comes to amount of [operational expenses] that are covered through fares, and that's about 35-40 percent annually."

By Cho Ki-weon, staff reporter
On Aug. 5, Japanese newspaper the Asahi Shimbun devoted a front-page column and articles spanning two pages of newspaper space to the comfort women. “Deprivation of human dignity is at the heart of the comfort women problem,” the paper said, firing a shot across the bow of Japanese right-wingers who have been seeking to evade responsibility for the comfort women.
Since the early 1990s, the newspaper has taken the lead in drawing attention inside Japan to the issue of the comfort women, a euphemistic term for women forced to work as sex slaves by the Japanese imperial army. In its Aug. 5 edition, the paper printed a one-page column titled, “Let’s Face the Reality of the Comfort Women Issue.”
“The tone adopted by some newspapers implying that the honor of Japan can be defended by disparaging the comfort women as prostitutes is only making the problem worse by inflaming nationalism in both Japan and South Korea. We cannot erase the fact that, during the war, women were forced to become sex partners for Japanese soldiers. The heart of the problem is that the comfort women were robbed of their freedom, and that their dignity as women was trampled upon,” the paper said.
After Prime Minister Shinzo Abe came to power, the Japanese government published the results of a review that undercut the 1993 Kono Statement, which had acknowledged the forcible nature of the mobilization of the comfort women by the Japanese imperial army, while far-right papers such as the Sankei Shimbun ran reports seeking to negate Japan’s responsibility.
Referring to the Abe administration’s publication of this review and claims by certain newspapers that the comfort women issue had been fabricated by the Asahi Shimbun, the newspaper announced that it was printing a series of feature articles to rebut this groundless criticism.
A two-pages of analytical pieces examined in detail the evidence unearthed so far about how women were forced to become sexual slaves and the controversy about the compulsory nature of their recruitment. “There were many cases in Korea and Taiwan - which were under Japanese colonial occupation at the time - of business operators hired by the military luring women to join them by telling them that they had a good job for them,” the newspaper said.
The newspaper acknowledged that no official documents have been discovered that directly demonstrated that the army had forced women into sexual slavery. However, it continued, there are records of the imperial Japanese army violently pressing local women into service in the Philippines and Indonesia, which were occupied by the Japanese at the time. “A 2002 report by the Philippine government even describes a case in which the Japanese army in the Philippines seized a local woman, detained her, and repeatedly gang-raped her,” the paper said.
“The common thread in all of these countries is how women were forced to become comfort women against their will,” the newspaper emphasized.
At the same time, the Asahi Shimbun said that it was retracting articles that it had run in the 1980s and 1990s based on the testimony of a Japanese writer named Seiji Yoshida, who claimed to have abducted a number of women on Jeju Island during World War II. In their attacks on Asahi Shimbun reports on the comfort women, the Sankei Shimbun and other papers have argued that Yoshida’s claims are false.
“We regret the fact that there were factual inaccuracies in some of our articles printed in the early 1990s, which was before much research had been done on the comfort women. However, we do not agree with the argument that this means the comfort women problem does not exist, or that there is no reason to apologize to the victims of the comfort women system,” the newspaper said.

Anita Brown made the claim that she was having a baby with Davido and was in a relationship with him. She gave assumed proof, incorporating screen captures of visits with Davido’s cousin, Clarks Adeleke, and Davido himself. Brown expressed that Davido had not recognized the pregnancy and shared discussions where he seemed to assert having unprotected sex with her and asked her to deal with the pregnancy. Clarks additionally guaranteed her that he would encourage Davido to get a sense of ownership with the kid.
Another alleged side chic, Ivanna Bay, revealed through her Instagram story that Davido had attempted to force her to sign a confidentiality agreement without her knowledge and legal representation.
These allegations have caused an uproar on social media, with some Nigerians condemning Davido’s actions.
In response to the accusations, Davido shared the fifth track titled “UNAVAILABLE” from his recently released 17-track project, “Timeless,” on his Instagram story.
Recall, Davido tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Chioma Rowland, in January 2023. Their marriage came barely months after the loss of their son, Ifeanyi, who drowned in the family pool in their Banana Island home.

Repsol Sinopec Resources UK Ltd v. Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy
Jurisdiction: First-Tier Tribunal General Regulatory Chamber
Side A: Repsol Sinopec Resources UK Ltd (Corporation)
Side B: Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (Government)
Core objectives: Operator challenged UK regulator's decision, under EU ETS, to seek recovery of over-allocated emissions allowances without netting off other allowances to which operator was entitled.
SummaryAn appellate regulatory body dismissed a claim that in seeking to recover over-allocated allowances under the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (EU ETS), a UK regulator needed to "net off" other allowances to which the operator was entitled.
Appellant Repsol holds a greenhouse gas emissions permit under the EU ETS for an offshore oil-production, storage and offloading unit called Bleo Holm. Pursuant to the EU ETS, Repsol received a free allocation of allowances for the period 2012-2017 based on a historic baseline assessment of CO2 emissions from Bleo Holm, and was required to surrender sufficient allowances to cover its total emissions each year, whether the free allowances or additional allowances that had been purchased. Following an investigation, the Offshore Production Regulator for Environment and Decommissioning (OPRED) found that there had been a significant decrease in capacity at Bleo Holm and, as a result, determined that Repsol was not entitled to all of the free allowances that it had received. OPRED sought to recover the over-allocated allowances under the Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme Regulations 2012 on behalf of the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS). OPRED is still investigating another significant capacity reduction issue which may have resulted in an over-allocation of allowances to Repsol.
While the issues related to Repsol's allowances for 2013-2017 were under review, in December 2018, the European Commission decided to suspend the allocation of free allowances to UK operators in light of the uncertainties surrounding the UK's exit from the European Union. As a result, Repsol did not receive free allowances in 2018 as expected, and so the company had to purchase sufficient allowances to offset its emissions for that year.
In March 2019 Repsol appealed BEIS's Notice of Recovery, bringing three claims before the Tribunal General Regulatory Chamber. First, Repsol contended that BEIS should not have sought to recover the total number of allowances that had been over-allocated for 2012-2017, but rather, should have netted off the allowances that Repsol did not receive in 2018 due to the European Commission's decision to suspend the allocation of free allowances to UK operators. Second, Repsol argued that the European Commission's decision to withhold allowances from UK operators was unlawful. Third, Repsol claimed that by seeking recovery of allowances without netting off the allowances to which Repsol was entitled, BEIS violated Repsol's property rights under Article 1 of the First Protocol to the European Convention on Human Rights. Repsol asked the Tribunal to quash the Notice of Recovery.
On November 18, 2019, the Tribunal dismissed the appeal. According to the Tribunal's order, the parties agree there was an over-allocation of allowances as a result of Repsol's failure to notify BEIS of the decreased capacity at Bleo Holm, and so BEIS had the power to issue a Notice of Recovery. The Tribunal further explained that although a Notice of Recovery must provide certain information to an operator, this does not include the details of any calculation to determine the sum of allowances to which the operator is entitled. Therefore, the Tribunal reasoned, the sum of allowances does not include any netting-off calculation. Moreover, the 2012 regulations are intended to implement a strict accounting system. Given this, the Tribunal determined that BEIS did not err in declining to net off any allowances from the Notice of Recovery. The Tribunal further concluded that it lacked jurisdiction to re-interpret the European Commission's decision to suspend allowance allocations to UK operators or to declare the decision unlawful. Finally, the Tribunal held that it lacked the power to resolve Repsol's property rights claim.

That said, the State Farm quotes we received were shockingly expensive when compared to the competition — typically around three times as much. While the extra cost may be worth the guarantee of good financial strength and customer service, we always recommend gathering quotes from multiple providers to see which strikes the best balance between cost and coverage.
I am glad to see USAA at the bottom; but it should not be on the list at all. I am currently going through a claim with them (total loss, I got rear ended, pushed into the car in front of me and they hit the car in front of them; not at fault). I have all correspondence recorded and proof of them lying to me, and using made up regulations to justify it. When asked for the reference for said regulations, I am ignored. I have been throwing WAC at them, quote after quote as to how they are being unruly. This was in December, it is now April and they have YET to give me a valuation report in compliance with WAC. I will be more than happy to provide a copy of our correspondence (with PII edited, obviously), proving how bad USAA is at customer service and how willing they are to break the rules if it benefits them. Email me if you want to see it. I finally had enough and contacted the Washington State Insurance Commissioner; USAA has until the middle of this month to respond to them… We will see what happens next.

If your employer does not offer an affordable health insurance option and you do not qualify for subsidized insurance or Medicare, you can shop the open market for medical insurance. The health insurance companies we reviewed will allow you to request a quote online rather easily. Premium rates vary significantly by multiple factors. You'll learn that the monthly rates increase quite a bit as you age. Smoking also increases the premium rate. In most cases you can select non-smoking if you have not smoked in over six months.
To calculate the added cost in purchasing comprehensive and/or collision coverage we looked at annual insurance quotes for a 30 year old male from New York across four different insurance companies, and the ten best-selling vehicles in the US. We look at the range of rates you could pay from basic liability to policy plans with comprehensive and collision coverage. Collision typically costs more than comprehensive, although some companies require you to carry both rather than just one. Comparing quotes across at least three companies can get you lower car insurance rates.
Services such as eHealthInsurance are simple to use and provide a variety of quotes but may not always show every option available. You may find more plan options by requesting plan information directly from the insurance company's website. Before purchasing new insurance it is always a good idea to ensure that your preferred doctor accepts the insurance you are looking to purchase. While your doctor may be listed on the insurance company's website, it is smart to call your doctor's office directly to verify.
USAA’s adjustor knew he messed up big time. He told me that & I said no I don’t agree & I’m not accepting that, so, I guess you need to finish this conversation with my lawyer. He promptly snarkily replied we can’t talk if you have a lawyer… I said I guess we can’t talk then here’s his number & hung up. I think he had enough time to Google my lawyer & he called me back to back 3x. The 3rd one I said you said we can’t talk so we’re not talking. You are finishing it with my lawyer… click. I’m done messing around @ this point. I hurt. I can’t get to my follow-up doctors appointments & they’re trying to screw me out of fair market value for my truck. Just no way.
While some may be asking themselves if it would it be cheaper to just pay the fine, statistics show that more Americans have health insurance now than before the ACA was enacted. There are several reasons why more people have insurance now, but one is certainly the increase in affordable health plan options, including subsidized, or tax credits, health insurance purchased through one of the state exchanges. Compliant insurance can also be purchased privately. The options available to you depend primarily on your income level.
The auto insurance rates displayed in our articles are based on the 2019 results of The Zebra’s comprehensive car insurance pricing analysis. In the analysis of all US zip codes — including Washington D.C. — our user profile consisted of a 30-year-old single male driving a 2013 Honda Accord. To generate pricing specific to particular rating factors, we adjusted the driving profile based on pricing factors commonly used by car insurance companies.
The best car insurance companies have a few things in common: They have straightforward shopping experiences, take good care of policyholders after a crash and treat their customers with respect and courtesy. That means only insurers with high customer satisfaction scores and relatively few complaints to insurance commissioners make it to the top of our list of the best auto insurance companies.

Bank fines slump to their lowest level since before the financial crisis
Fines imposed on the City have fallen to their lowest level since before the financial crisis, new research reveals.
Around £22.2million of penalties were levied by City regulator the Financial Conduct Authority in 2016 – a huge fall from £905.2million last year.
In 2007, the eve of the banking crisis, firms were fined just £5.3million. The record year was in 2014 when more than £1.5billion was levied on financial firms.
Gloomier times: Bank fines hit a record in 2014, but have fallen this year to £22.2million
The lower fines have coincided with the appointment of former Bank of England deputy Andrew Bailey as the head of the FCA in July.
He replaced Martin Wheatley, who had been brought in after the financial crisis as a reformer who sided with consumers.
However, while he was credited with dealing with a number of the toxic issues of the past that beset the industry, he was criticised for being too tough on the banks and preventing them from building their business for the future.
A spokesman for the FCA said: ‘The level of fines reflects the degree of misconduct in our market and so a reduction of fines should be viewed as a positive.’

Kathleen Kent is a 10th generation descendent of Martha Carrier. She is also a natural-born storyteller, and in her first novel, she paints a haunting portrait, not just of Puritan New England, but also of one family's deep and abiding love in the face of fear and persecution
©2008 Kathleen Kent; (P)2008 Hachette Audio
I really enjoyed this novel--highly recommend it. The narrator, 11-year old Sarah Carrier, lives in Andover, MA at the time of the witch hunts in nearby Salem. The novel is based on a true story: Sarah's mother Martha was hanged for witchcraft, and she and her three brothers were also charged. The novel not only presents the facts and a wonderful portrait of the struggles of everyday life at the time but also creates a moving portrait of a daughter coming to understand her parents and the true nature of their love for their children. I listened to the book on audio, read by Mare Winningham; very nicely done indeed.
Both the book & the narrator were near perfection. The book tells the story of Sarah Carrier, whose Mother, Martha, is executed as a witch during the Salem Witch trials. It examines the themes of mother/daughter relationships, family, community, survival & religion. Over & over again it examines its central question, what is love? Is love hard or soft, does love give freedom or restrain it? The questions & themes resonate long after the book is finished. The narrator does a beautiful job with the material, reading with subtlety & depth, covering a broad range of characters & accents. I highly recommend this book. If you are anything like me, be prepared; I cried through much of it.
It took me a long time to finish this book because I just didn't engage with it. The writing is fine, the historical research and the imagining of the story are excellent. The main character is likable, though many of the relationships and many of the characters seem too simple to be really convincing. As historical fiction, the story makes you feel as though you are in the place and time and mindset of the era of the Salem witch trials. Most importantly, it will make you feel the horror and the atrocity of what was done, and the futile frustration of the victims. It's worth the investment for that.
It's not much more complex. You don't understand why the bad guys did what they did, aside from the petty jealousies and fears on the surface. It's not quite an epic, either--you don't feel much of the world outside, though at times the writer tries.
And the story becomes mechanical at points, as the author seems determined to lay out the historical details whether they add to the story or not, or to include all of her research into living conditions and setting. Given that you know pretty much what the ending will be, there's not a lot to pull you through the story at times.
It's an informative and interesting historical novel, and if you are interested in the era, or just in the horrible atrocities of man, it's worth the listen, despite some of its weaknesses. Mare Winningham does a good job of capturing the resigned, earthy tones of the narrator, too.
A very good book. I loved the plot, the descriptive narrative. I felt as if I knew these people and even cried at some parts. I would recommend this book to anyone, especially who has an interest in Salem. it touched the horrors of the witch trials without being too graphic. Loved it!
Based so strongly on research from the court documents and writings of the time, this novel really brings the horror of the time and place to life. I found it far more compelling than The Crucible in the illustration of fear, ignorance and hate. Narrated from the point of view of a young girl, this portrait is likely to resonate more with women but in a day when peer pressure among teens runs amok, it should be required reading.
From the minuet I turned on my Zen to listen to; The Heretic's Daughter; I was captured. I enjoy reading Historical Fiction and this is to be one of the best. I went on the internet to find other book by Kathleen Kent only to find that this is her first book. I sure hope that she continues to write. I am looking forward to reading her next book. Mare Winningham was an excellent narrator and brought the story to life. I would highly recommend it to everyone.
Which came first... the books or the glasses?
I listened to about half of this book before I put myself out of my misery (the book is about 10 hrs and I listened to 5 1/2). The book is suppose to be about a girl's mother who was accused of being a witch in the 1600's when people were spooked about that sort of thing however 5 1/2 hrs into the book the author had not got around to what was suppose to be the main plot line. The plot was being narrated by the daughter, Sarah, and she was talking about mundane things like doing the washing, helping with the plowing, finding the neighbors cows in the yard and returning them, etc. Sometimes she would talk about something interesting like someone catching yellow fever and there was the suspense of whether that person lived but those type of moments were few and far between. As I said, over half way into the book and no mention of witches. I don't like it when an author saves their real story for the last maybe 50 or 25 pages of a book and uses filler for the rest just to make a bigger book or because they really don't have a full story to tell; that's wasting my time not to mention boring me senseless. I do not recommend this book.
On a good note, Mare Winningham is a good narrator. She is the reason I listened as long as I did.
This book was like going back in time; very vivid recalling of an era that is so interesting to me. Family love is found and lost, then found again...all in the middle of such injustice. Families are torn apart by fear and ignorance. Required reading? YES!
It is not a "light read" but excellent nonetheless.
Historical fictions is one of my new favorites. It was delightful to read about familiar places I have been and most importantly learning more about an historical event which happened in my home town and never really took the time to learn or investigate the truths of the debacle. The atrocities which happened to the lives and families of the people accused of witchery in Old Salem is truely astounding
I never really knew much about the Salem witch trials and found this very informative. It was interesting because it was told from the experience of a family that went through it. It was a very bizarre happening and when you realize how many lives were affected it's pretty sad, too.
It was good.

I’ve decided to use a non-kinematic rigidbody for the vehicles in my game. Just to note, they are secondary to the main game (which takes place on the rooftops of nearby buildings).
I have traffic nodes littered throughout the streets to direct the vehicles where to go. Some of these nodes represent stop signs (they’ll cause the vehicle to come to a stop for a few seconds before casting a ray and then proceeding to turn), while others are controlled by traffic lights.
I need the vehicles to be able to collide with each other, nearby buildings (drivers may be startled and simply veer off road into buildings, trees, etc), and other debris that may have inadvertently fallen into the road (aka imagine the player shooting down scaffolding on top of a building).
My question, plain and simple, is: having described my needs above, what is the best way to move my vehicles so they move smoothly, accurately (aka easy for me to have turn and follow roads without veering into other lanes), and react to physics objects and possibly explode?
I’m not entirely sure how I want to handle vehicles turning. I was thinking of maybe using a curve and just interpolating them along the curve until the end, at which point they continue their normal driving behavior, moving along to the next node down the street. Of course, deciding now to use rigidbodies throws a possible fork in that plan also, since I’m unsure how to move rigidbodies!
If anyone can share some educated opinions and suggestions, I’d greatly appreciate it! If there are any caveats, please share those also, I’m really trying to write a fairly clean but robust system but I have limited-to-no experience using physics!
edit - Also, I understand the FixedUpdate happens less frequently, which could result in jitter…but using rigidbodies, and possibly AddForce, is FixedUpdate a better spot to move the vehicles? Is AddForce a good option? I need to be able to tell if/when the vehicles should come to a stop so they don’t overshoot stop signs…and how on Earth would I simulate breaking so they don’t stop on a dime but end up at 0mph at the point they need to be??

Working with a Knightsbridge-based pearl jeweller pursued by the stars
Yoko London is a leading international luxury pearl jeweller recently favoured by stars such as Michelle Obama, Celine Dior, Beyonce, Zendaya, Lady Gaga, and Katy Perry.
Established in 1973, it is a family run business spanning three generations of pearl specialists. Recognised for using rare and exceptionally-sized pearls, Yoko London create stunning pearl jewellery collections as well as one of a kind masterpieces. As Yoko London handpick every pearl to ensure that it size, colour and lustre fits its jewellery, it can take years to complete a piece.
Helping to create a new Knightsbridge jewellery haven
In Feb 2017, Yoko London opened a brand-new 3-floor flagship boutique in London’s Knightsbridge, cementing their position as an international luxury jeweller.
Having invested both an enormous amount of financial and emotional effort to bring their brand to life in their new store, Yoko London came to us to ensure that their signage matched.
To give you a flavour of the standard of the quality of the store’s, it had been designed with the finest quality materials, combining Emperador marble, with high quality natural brass, Alcantara suede and natural leather.
Using illuminated build up signage for a slick modern look
In light of this, we worked closely with the Yoko London family team to design and fit a shop-front illuminated built-up letter sign and accompanying highlight projecting sign.
We’re proud to have been a repeat supplier to such an inspirational family run business.

P-D analyzes Federal anti-terrorism grants to beef up the security of the physical structures of non-profit organizations, and in 2009 and 2010, the overwhelming majority on a national basis went to Jewish-themed organizations, and locally, it went heavily to Orthodox Jewish organizations, in spite of the fact that most of St. Louis’s Jews are Reform.
Karen Aroesty, head of the local ADL, (and she’s kind of a looker, too), is worried that so much Federal money eventually means Federal control. Where have you heard that before? Glad I can count the chairwoman of the St. Louis ADL is one of my frequent readers. Actually, she rants about the “separation between church” (shouldn’t that be synagogue?) “and state,” but the Constitution doesn’t actually use those words — What she is worried about here, or should be worried about, is the non-establishment clause.
But I think for the time being, in light of contemporary conventional bipartisan politics, she’s worried about nothing. Jews generally vote majority Democrat, so no Democrat President will tell the Jews they can’t practice Judaism, and the Republicans wish they had the Jewish vote, and many Republican voters buy into the “God’s chosen people” theology, mainly southern fundagelical Christians, so Republican Presidents won’t use Federal power to restrict the Jewish faith and religion, either. Only Christians are subject to this whimsical power that comes from Federal funding.
And no, there should not be this level of Federal entanglement in any faith system and its Earthly presences.
One more interesting tidbit:
Rosenberg, of the St. Louis Jewish Federation, said while he understands the difference between the two, “the nature of terror is that it drives all kinds of people all over the world.”
“If you dig into the motivations of the attack at the Seattle federation, it was about anger at the people of Israel over the treatment of Arabs,” Rosenberg said. “That’s different than a hate crime. It’s different than a right-wing militia. It has a strong political tinge.”
“Different than a right-wing militia.” Like the ones around here that had disproportionately Jewish leadership and constantly preached about how Nazi Germany should be the example of what we shouldn’t do? (Not that Nazi Germany should be our model for good governance, BTW.) And the ones that believed in racial equality, claimed that the Rockefeller establishment “keeps blacks poor because blacks are onto the establishment?” Put a cork in it, Rosenberg. Incidentally, piggybacking on something I said yesterday, this racial equality bullshit is why I put some distance between myself and the Patriot movement and its appendages.

Question: I am really disappointed that Glee is returning to McKinley and that they are adding more characters to fill out their already shortened final season. The last few seasons of Glee have been less than stellar, but the last handful of episodes set in New York were awesome. Give me New York and throw McKinley away for good. Even with the cliché that was Rachel going from student to Broadway star to TV star almost overnight, I enjoyed watching the more adult struggles of these characters.

All of us are refugees,
All of us are migrants.
Who are we to treat others as fleas
When in this world we’re just vagrants?
A Painting at the Nemiranda Arthouse
Your own sadness betrays you
When the pain starts to take a new form–
Something that your memory sculpted long ago
And just decided to hide from you, away from you.
And so that form reveals itself like a messiah,
With palm fronds and white clothes waving in the air,
With you crying not because of salvation
But because the pain is here to crucify you.
Then you will ask why such a messiah would come
When all you need is just a day turning into another day–
And so you realize that remembering welcomes the past
Just as the past embraces the pain.
Really, the pain is without
That the new things you’ll learn
Are not part of your memory yet but are already allies of pain.
So the sculpting process starts again
Where you make this moment an artwork–
Something to be appreciated when you remember it,
A beauteous nadir that’s worthy to be resurrected.
The Sagada breeze,
As cold as my ex’s heart,
Stowed in Manila.

Joshua Tree National Park is one of the most fantastic in the American West, stacked with climbing trails, vegetation, and fauna. It is one of California’s two stunning desert recreational areas. Its remarkable scenes will wow you with their undeniable greatness.
The most unique things to do in Joshua tree are walking or moving among the trees, climbing the rising above rock dividers, camping out under the stars, getting the grandness in photographs, or simply retaining the peacefulness of the desert.
Without a doubt, even as interest out in the open stops has exploded and the area has transformed into a goal for subject matter experts and entertainers, somehow, Joshua Tree feels like a mystery escape.
Joshua Tree National Park offers an outdoorsy experience, yet leave your plan for the town. The desert scene of Joshua Tree, which spreads across very nearly 800,000 segments of land, attracts everyone.
Getting To and Around Joshua Tree
It’s attainable to collide with Joshua tree from Los Angeles (2 hours), Las Vegas (3 hours), and Phoenix (4.5 hours). You can fly into Palm Springs International Airport, but you’ll need to rent a vehicle, especially in the recreational area district, except assuming you’re a steadiness cyclist.
Where to Stay in Joshua Tree?
There are many extraordinarily cool, retro, and refined Airbnb stays in Joshua tree. I’ve conveyed two articles, and each has 13 commitments to check out:
Joshua tree holds up rentals with hotels, moderate living spaces, and, shockingly, a geodesic vault.
Expecting you slant toward full assistance, Booking.com has a ton of housing and hotel postings for Joshua tree and nearby 29 Palms and Yucca Valley, like the western-themed Joshua Tree Ranch House or Pioneer town Motel.
If you are flying rather than going to Joshua Tree, take a gander at our helper for the closest and most supportive air terminals to Joshua Tree.
Where to Eat in Joshua Tree?
Breakfast: Crossroads Cafe
It will be overpowering with twelve breakfast joints to peruse. Help yourself out and go straightforwardly to Crossroads Cafe. You can polish off it with ham, bacon, sausage, or veggies.
Lunch: Country Kitchen
Country Kitchen has been serving breakfast and lunch for north of 80 years now. You’ll find a Reuben or Patty Melt. Regardless, the SALAD sounds odd. The Peanut Salad, Stir Fry Noodles, Thin Rice Noodle Salad, and Crispy Salad with noodles, peanuts, and honey sesame dressing are the favorite.
Dinner: Pappy and Harriet’s
Pappy and Harriet’s in Pioneertown is a magnificent restaurant. It’s a neighborhood individualâ€™s headquarters. Get a spot outside and focus on unrecorded music, or pull up a table inside to avoid the hotness of early evening. There are moreover incredibly delicious creative blended drinks and an adolescent menu.
Rundown of The 12 Best Things to do in Joshua Tree
To help with your visit, see our summary of top fun things to do in Joshua tree National Park.
1. Walk the Hidden Valley Nature Trail
The Hidden Valley area of Joshua is one of the most beautiful and open districts of the amusement region.
It’s ideal for your short trip or wandering among the trees and rock game plans.
The Hidden Valley Nature Trail is a circular trail that enters through an opening into a bowl enveloped by rock dividers. It doesn’t have various Joshua trees.
The Hidden Valley trip locale, running against the norm side of the stopping region from the trailhead, is great, with an abundance of colossal Joshua trees spread around enormous stones and rock loads.
It is a splendid spot to participate in an outing and meander around.
2. Participate in The Scenes from Keys View
It is certainly worth the drive up to Keys View, a post point at an ascent of more than 5,000 feet, with clearing, sees loosening up over the Coachella Valley.
In case the air is clear, the view is awesome, and this is one of the fantastic things to do in Joshua tree for getting engaged with the enveloping
3. Go for a Ryan Mountain Hike
The move-up Ryan Mountain looks a piece overpowering and modestly unexceptional.
This climb is about the award from the top, where the points of view expand 360 degrees over the entertainment region. It is a three-mile all-over move, with 1,000 feet of rising gain.
The revealed way offers practically no shade and isn’t stimulating as it follows an unprofitable slant up to the top. From the summit, the view is advancing the useful.
4. Experience Horseback Riding
A larger piece of the entertainment region is pure wild and ideal for horseback riding which is among the great things to do in Joshua tree besides hike.
Most horseback riders will regularly incline in the direction of the ways in the Black Rock Canyon locale close by those near the western admittance to the amusement region.
Trails are across open desert, along with ravine floors and up and over little passes.
The amusement region has two camp regions with districts set for horses and stock animals.
5. Wander the Uncommon Cholla Cactus Garden
The shocking yellow desert plants are such a splendid bunch of concealing.
Most Cholla is in Mexico, so it’s a treat to see them here forewarned. In any case, you’ll see complete desk work for bumblebees, and they are not kidding.
The prickly plant was in bloom when we visited, and there were more bumblebees than desert flora.
6. Act for a photo by The Giant Rock
Heading further north along a comparable dirt road is Giant Rock. The name isn’t a lovely exaggeration; it is without a doubt a genuine beast rock.
It looms seven stories over the sandy bowl floor. The stone is a magnet for supernatural vortexes and UFOs.
The Giant Rock used to be an indispensable stop for vagrant Native Americans, and the Hopi included it for shamanic capacities.
The whole thing is an intriguing piece of topography, a peaceful fix of desert and a warbler. Fortunately, I didn’t get seized by outcasts.
7. Visit the Remaining Parts of Ryan Ranch Trail
Ryan Ranch Trail is another among the awesome things to do in Joshua tree. It is a clear 1-mile circle trail tracked down east of the Ryan Campgrounds.
The ascension takes visitors along an old homestead road to see makes due from outstanding adobe structures from the 1800s. Once a tremendous property, incorporated the main house, a bunkhouse, and another design, the compound was by J.D. Ryan, who worked a nearby mine.
8. Partake in The Grandness of Cottonwood Spring
Cottonwood Spring Oasis filled in as a critical spot both for Cahuilla Indian Tribe and gold diggers who depended on its water.
Today, visitors can see leftovers of an unrefined kind of gold processing plant, as well as significant remainders of two later gold plants. There are a couple of moves in and around the area.
A 3-mile circle trail to Mastodon Peak features exceptional points of view and prompts the Mastodon Mine and the Winona Mill Site.
9. Take A Guided Tour of Keys Ranch
Joshua Tree National Park is generally about nature, yet the district has a hypnotizing history.
It is one of the best things to do in Joshua tree if you like history is to join a coordinated visit through Keys Ranch.
The visit through Keys Ranch incorporates around a one-half mile of walking and takes you around the bundle of designs at the site, including the homestead, the school construction, the store, and the studio.
10. Check The Lost Horse Mine out
One of the ways was the Lost Horse Mine, where a couple of thousand ounces of gold and silver were mined.
The 4-mile out-and-back Lost Horse Mine Trail gets rolling Keys Road and is evaluated appropriately irksome. You can climb the more long circle trail, which is almost 7 miles.
The way features Joshua trees and yucca, and wildflowers in the spring. Climb uphill past the dig to the disregard for sees over the valley.
11. Do The Scenic Drive Through Joshua Tree National Park
Expecting you gain a few short experiences to spend at Joshua Tree National Park, you can live it up doing the pleasant drive through the diversion region.
If you start at the south admittance to the entertainment region, you can visit Cottonwood Spring Oasis, and drive along Pinto Basin Road.
Further up Pinto Basin Road, you can do the short walk around the Cholla Cactus Garden and head to Park Boulevard, which explores the northern piece of the diversion region in an east-west course.
12. Regard Wildflowers In Season
Spring is one of the absolute best times to visit the Southern California deserts since that is the place where they form a genuine perspective explode with concealing.
That is especially apparent at whatever point a super fledgling occurs, while the previous winter was wet.
The fledgling season at Joshua Tree National Park generally starts after February, and apexes sometime in March or early April, if you could see wildflowers at higher statures into May and even June.
If you plan a visit to Joshua Tree National Park around wildflower bloom, check out that it is one of the most amusing things to do in Joshua tree.

This module provides an introduction to Research Methods, Statistics and Experimental design and also includes sessions on note-taking, preparation, library and online resource usage and referencing. These lectures/classes acquaint students with different areas and methods of research and the practical use of computers in applying the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, as well as acquiring IT and research relevant study skills such as report writing.
It will provide students with the necessary basic statistics and research skills and information to apply and evaluate statistical, empirical and qualitative procedure at beginner’s level. It will introduce students to terminology and theory, lab report procedure and format, as well as general studies skills required for successful study at this level - this includes areas such as time management, note-taking, assimilation of information, how to read a journal article, and as such plays a vital role in PDP (Personal Development Planning).
Students are introduced to a cross section of areas of interest within Social Psychology, an essential component of any Psychology BSc Programme. This module covers selected social psychology issues and factors relevant to the individual within society, both theoretical and practical. Individual behaviour (and difference/variation) occurs in a social setting; the module examines aspects of social influence such as conformity, attitude formation, persuasion, and concepts relevant to the ‘self’. Further to this the module will focus on personality theories and the development and debate relating to IQ testing.
As such this module forms a basis on which other modules will build - across the full range of Psychology. In particular, the module forms the basis of Applying Social psychology in year two, and lays the ground-knowledge for social psychology related options and topics through the rest of the programme. It also makes use of real life examples so that students can directly appreciate the value of Psychology as a discipline to understanding human action and interaction.
The aim of the module is to develop students’ understanding of, and enthusiasm for, Psychology by introducing them to several different topics and approaches, as well as the gradual introduction of theory. At this level it is also fundamental to the student’s development to apply new skills in researching and preparing independent study and assessments/course work. In doing so the students will come to understand several fundamental principles underlying the behaviour of individuals and the behaviour of individuals in group or social settings.
This module aims to provide an account of the age-related changes across the human lifespan, namely the physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development of the person from conception, through adolescence and early adulthood to late adulthood and old age. In developing an understanding of the lifespan perspective, the intricate interaction between biology, environment and culture and related issues is emphasized. In addition, particular attention will be paid to optimal aging, to physical and psychological conditions often affecting individuals in adulthood, and theories on the person-environment interaction as well as issues relating to care facilities. Importantly, cognitive development will be explored alongside a consideration of issues pertaining to work and leisure, grand-parenthood, retirement and death.
This module builds on the content of Research Methods 1. As such the student’s progress, following a revision period, onto more detailed SPSS and EDS skills and put these into practice in further lab reports. Research methods are spread across the full year rather than being concentrated into one term so that students acquire familiarity and confidence in this area through continual exposure to the material.
The aims are that students should hone the skills they already have and build new ones through lectures, practical classes and group work. They should also continue to familiarise themselves with the variety that experimental design and research have to offer by introduction to observation techniques and further qualitative approaches as well as quantitative empirical ones.
Familiarisation with basic cognitive and biological and biopsychological processes and concepts is essential for any Psychology student. Consequently this module forms a very important core section of the module. The fundamentals of these two areas are presented in such a way as to make the material accessible and to support learning through specific tutorials.
The biological bases of psychological processes will be examined and students introduced to the relationships between brain mechanisms and behavioural and cognitive processes. Genetic and evolutionary themes will also be introduced. A conceptual overview of Cognitive Psychology will serve to present the issues that are central to human information processing. Examples and landmark research will serve to illustrate these issues and processes.
This module is an important component of a modern Psychology degree and its aim is to encourage students to engage with current, cultural and historic/philosophic topics relevant to Psychology today and in the context of its history.
The module begins with an overview of the history of Psychology and the emergence of Psychology as an independent discipline in the nineteenth century. The material will also include elements of Philosophy and students will be encouraged to think about the impact of various philosophical approaches on Psychology during its development and on modern Psychology today. Students will also be encouraged to familiarise themselves with the historic development of Psychology as an independent discipline.
The module will also consider the role of Psychology as a ‘science’ and introduce elements from Karl Popper (falsification), Lakatos and Feyerabend. The module introduces a range of conceptual areas of debate that will encourage the students to engage in discussions of these areas and real and unsupported dichotomies (e.g. determinism vs. free will; nature vs. nurture; what is consciousness; linguistic relativism).
Finally, students will engage with various cross-cultural aspects of Psychology, such as the different approaches to mental health.
This is a University-wide common module, which facilitates interpersonal, intercultural and cross-disciplinary learning for all first year students enrolled on Regent’s validated degree programmes. The module introduces a range of ideas and ways of thinking based around the University’s values, reflected in its learning outcomes. It encourages students to interact with the broader University community, both socially and academically, asking them to cross the physical and intellectual borders of their degree programmes. Global Perspectives aims to increase self-awareness and prepares students for their subsequent studies by familiarising them with the resources available to meet their lifelong learning needs.
The module aims to consolidate the learning from Research Methods 1 & 2, and to prepare students for the mini project in the next Research Methods module. This module will introduce more advanced statistical parametric techniques. In this module students are also encouraged to reflect on their own development and the progress made in this and other areas related to the empirical side of Psychology.
The module will at first review ANOVA and other final elements from Research Methods 2 in the previous semester. As such it will also provide students with the opportunity to practice experimental design and rehearse the necessary skills for completion of a short mini-project.
The module introduces students to the study of biological psychology and evolutionary psychology. A change to the module title is requested to better reflect this content.
The cognitive psychology module in Year 1 introduces the abstract mental processes involved in our daily functioning such as memory, language and perception. However, most of our everyday life activities are usually comprised of more complex skills. Building on the cognitive psychology taught at year 1, this module focuses on more advanced and specialized topics of cognitive psychology via their application in real life. This will give students a taste of problems faced by cognitive psychologists while also reinforcing the important theoretical aspects of the subject area.
The main emphasis is on translating theories into practice and the concept that real world problems also drive the development of theories in cognitive psychology. A wide spectrum of cognitive theories will be applied including memory, learning, perception, recognition, attention, language, judgement and decision-making. Students will benefit particularly from having seminar talks from a number of invited guest speakers who are practicing psychologists; each talk will be closely related to the lecture of the same week.
The module aims to demonstrate the importance of basic scientific research in cognitive psychology and to stimulate and develop ideas for possible final year projects.
The inclusion of a module devoted to this area is one of the unique factors of this programme; traditional scientific Psychology often ignores the counselling or therapeutic alternatives. In this module students will be introduced to fundamental concepts in relation to Counselling Psychology as well as having the opportunity to develop an understanding of issues pertinent to psychotherapeutic and counselling approaches. The aim is that students should – if they wish - have gathered enough information about the variety of ‘psychologies’ available to be able to formulate an informed argument with regard to these particular approaches
This module aims to familiarise students of Psychology with counselling and therapeutic principles so that they may have an awareness of the full range of what is commonly held together by the umbrella term ‘Psychology’ as used in common parlance. The inclusive and non-judgemental nature of the module is continued in this module where students can gain an introductory understanding of the counselling and therapy practices that are presently available in Britain today and the theoretical ideas underlying these different approaches, whilst at the same time being encouraged to evaluate these approaches from a scientific point of view.
The module aims to consolidate students’ learning in the areas of research methods, statistics and experimental design by requiring students to undertake a research project as a group. Students will use the experience of producing a short mini-project as a method for not only providing the necessary experience prior to producing their final year project but also to encourage an assessment of students’ own abilities as independent learners and researchers. The mini-project as such also forms an important milestone in the students’ reflection of their own personal development and potential as an active learner.
The aim of the module is to apply acquired theoretical and practical skills by designing and conducting research, and analysing data, as a group of researchers. Students write up the research independently and individually. The module is designed help students decide not only the topic of their final year project but also the type of investigation and method they wish to pursue.
The rationale here is to not only build on the topics introduced in the year 1 module, but to take an even more applied approach in doing so and also to demonstrate the extent of social psychological theory, practice and its uses. The first section of the module focuses on individual/group processes; the latter section on social relationships and the physical environment theory is backed up by examples of social psychological factors in action by way of examples and discussion focusing on individual, interpersonal and group processes. The aim is also to present a varied menu of topics to demonstrate the wide range of Social Psychology and its application in practical real world settings.
This module follows on from Life Span 1 but addresses human life span from other perspectives, thus broadening the students’ understanding of human development from cradle to grave. Development across Life Span is a key area for the understanding of human actions and motivations, and is relevant to all other areas of Psychology.
To familiarise students with psychologically relevant issues relevant to human life from conception to old age. Includes discussion of the methods for studying development and important theories and placing these in a modern 21st century context.
The rationale for the inclusion of this option is that it offers the possibility for students who are interested in the pathological side of psychology to follow this interest. It also prepares the way for those wishing to choose health psychology in the final year and who are particularly interested in the nature of disorder or individual difference in mental health.
The module aims to facilitate an understanding of some personality theories and the classification of the major psychological disorders. The module will focus particularly on schizophrenia, the anxiety disorder spectrum, but not only, as it will also consider the biological factors and models presumed to underlie psychopathology.
The module aims to introduce and familiarise students with some fundamental concepts and issues within the range of psychology of sport and performance. This is an applied form of Psychology and so forms part of the psychosocial emphasis of the degree as a whole on psychology that is directly linked to everyday experience.
The module also contains a strong performance related element in that dancers and musicians are considered, but also that actually ‘doing’ is performing under almost any circumstance. The aim is to demonstrate the relevance of this particular area of psychology to real life application.
The module begins by looking at the nature of talent and expertise in such varied fields as chess playing and wine tasting. It then goes on to examine the work of Ericson and other major theorists and examine the theory of deliberate practice. Thereafter the module turns its attention to motivation both extrinsic and intrinsic and thence sports. Team building, coach-athlete relationships are just two of the areas examined. The module also considers aspects of sport and performance psychology particularly relevant to stage performers such as dancers, for example stage fright or the effects on injury.
This module aims to introduce students to the scientific study of humour. The study of humour relates to aspects of social, cognitive, developmental, and evolutionary psychology. Humour is an integral part of human interaction and relates to such topics as friendship and social interaction, sex differences and status, verbal and non-verbal communication, mate choice and attractiveness, and health and wellbeing. In this elective, students will critically evaluate the theories which have been offered to explain the sense of humour, understand different types of humour and their hypothesised functions, and critically consider humour study methodology.
Introduction on various motivated behaviours studied in psychology.
This module aims to introduce students to psychological theories and research findings related to the understanding of phenomena associated with religious belief (both organised and traditional), superstition, spirituality and practice. It aims to encourage an understanding of the psychological processes, and behaviours involved; the terms ‘religion’ and ‘religiosity’ will be applied in the widest sense in relation to a full range of belief systems and how these relate to the individual and society, ranging from the shamanistic through to organised world religions, superstition, religious experience and how these impact on every day behaviour and interaction.
The research project is an intrinsic part of any BSc qualification in Psychology; as such, it forms a core module of this programme. It is the culmination of the students’ degree and enables students to put into practice the skills and knowledge acquired over the last years. Stu-dents either choose or are allocated to a project supervisor.
The project is the summation of the programme as a whole and as a summative achievement necessarily requires the student to reflect on their own learning, progress and achievement across the Degree.
This substantial piece of independent empirical work gives students the opportunity to engage with a particular area of interest in considerable depth. A project of this nature is important for several reasons. Successfully completing such a piece of independent work will help students develop the skills needed to become a competent individual researcher. In addition it will equip students with further insight into how psychological research is conducted and in doing so also prepares them for postgraduate study in psychology.
In producing a successful design, gaining ethical approval, gathering and analysing data and producing the final report of robust empirical research students will complete a critical review of relevant literature, have developed a specific and realistic original research question, demonstrate their analytical and SPSS skills (if applicable) and gain experience of presenting their own work to their peers and staff.
Psychology has long been concerned with concepts of pathology in the human psyche but Positive Psychology seeks to redress the balance and understand life satisfaction, happiness and contentment in contemporary living. This module will examine how rising affluence does not necessarily account for increased life satisfaction in developed countries and how we can come to understand how psychological elements can positively contribute to individual subjective well-being. However, the module also moves to the societal/group level and examines how societies are able flourish with active citizenship, positive social well-being and individuals who engage in their community. Barriers to achieving subjective well-being and the flourishing society are also presented as students are expected to critically assess elements of the Positive Psychology movement.
The overall aim of the module is to introduce students to the field of Positive Psychology and to allow students to develop a deep understanding of current issues that Positive Psychology is concerned with. The specific aims are therefore to develop an understanding of the historical and theoretical underpinnings of Positive Psychology as well as presenting major topic areas in positive Psychology. A further aim in this module is to aid students in developing a critical understanding of how Positive Psychology is applied at an individual, as well as at societal/group level.
This course aims to introduce not only the major areas in which cross cultural variations have been observed in behaviour and thinking but also to the methodologies employed in uncovering them, as well as encouraging an understanding of the issues related to universality and cultural variability in behaviour, perception and motivation.
The module introduces the importance of a cultural, social and communicative context for the understanding of human behaviour and experience and will allow students to appreciate the way in which psychological processes and perceptions may differ across cultures.
Issues pertaining to longevity and lifestyle present society with considerable challenges. Health psychology is one of the growing psycho-social areas that many professions and official bodies now engage with. As such it is a key issue for the 21st century and as an academic area of interest fits well with other options offered in the programme such as positive psychology. It also builds on issues prominent in social and developmental psychology as presented in the first two years, or for those who chose the psychopathology option at the previous level. Health is also a topic in the Foundation year as a key example of applied psychology and so this option builds a continuity and unity across the full breadth of the module.
Health Psychology is concerned with the study of psychological processes in health, illness and health care. This module aims to give an overview of the discipline and introduce students to general psychological processes, which have particular relevance in health settings and promotion. In addition, students will be able to examine a number of current topics of re-search in Health Psychology, since this is an area that is growing and developing. A thorough analysis of each main topic will be undertaken, and a considerable amount of directed reading will be required, as students are encouraged to engage with specific topics of interest.
London is a world centre for fashion, publishing, film and British culture has embraced these aspects along with the celebrity cult and the fascination with the famous and beautiful. The module builds on social topics addressed in the programme, and also issues relating to personality and well -being if we consider the down side or possible consequences of fashion, fame and beauty, and also cognitive processes. As such the module exemplifies the progressive nature of the type of the programme as a whole. Fashion, beauty and celebrity create a fascinating triumvirate of topics and consequently an examination of the psycho-social pro-cesses at work in these areas presents itself as innovative and exciting.
The module begins with facilitating a familiarity and understanding of how psychologists have sought to explain beauty and attractiveness, as well as body modification and adornment and how superficially what is consider attractive or ‘normal’ has changed. This requires the student understand face processing and the various theoretical approaches to beauty as well as up to date integrated theories for attractiveness. The aim is also to encourage students to engage with appearance in a wide sense including facial disfiguration and body issues, including cosmetic surgery addiction or the use of the body as “art”. Students will be expected to have an appreciation of the different types of explanations put forward for dress and adornment including tattooing and piercing and how these practices, including fetish wear, have moved from sub culture to main stream, as well as the role of music videos and pop divas.
To consider the different approaches to and explanations for the fashion cycle and process and how this has been accounted for in psycho-social terms both historically and currently and to gain a familiarity with the concept of fashion and dress as non-verbal communication and symbolic interaction. The marketing of fashion, and the motivations of the wearer: self-worth, role adoption, luxury and fake good purchase. Impression management and the study of effects of appearance on others as well as the wearer or buyer will be examined.
Finally the aims of the fame component are to examine the nature of fame and why humans appear to need idols, and how they can determine beauty standards and function as role models.
Forensic and Criminal Psychology involves the application of psychological knowledge to the legal and criminal justice system. The module describes and assesses the theories, models, empirical research generated by psychology to understand criminal behaviour and the pro-cesses involved in the criminal justice system.
Forensic elements of the module will examine how psychology can provide information to aid legal decision making as well as highlighting processes involved in criminal investigations, custodial procedures and subsequently, the treatment and rehabilitation of offenders. Criminological aspects of the module will examine the understanding of crime and criminal behaviour embedded in social contexts. Students will be expected to understand and appreciate the role professional psychologists play in contemporary legal and criminal justice systems.
The module will allow students to develop a deep understanding of current topics and issues in this branch of the discipline.
This module builds on the areas touched on in social, developmental and bio-psychological sessions hitherto in the degree. Matters relating to gender, sexual orientation, gender identity and the advent of “out” psychology where gay lesbian and transgender issues are no longer demonised or automatically pathologised, are becoming increasingly popular. As a module it fits well with Health psychology, Psychology of Film and Theatre and indeed Psychology of fashion, fame and identity.
To facilitate a familiarity and understanding of biological and psycho-social gender and identity, as well as to examine theories and different approaches to sexuality, intimate relation-ships and behaviours and motivations across social groups, age groups and cultures. To enable students to engage with issues such as gender transition, homophobia, sexism, sex workers and risk taking, safe sex and abstinence campaigns as well as sex education. Other focus areas are heterocentrism, paraphilias/fetish, erotomania and pornography. The module will also examine the use of sex in advertising and what has been called the ”pornification” of urban space through imagery and the media.
As a purely coursework based module students will examine and research in depth particular areas of their own interest.
This module will provide an introduction to the field of Counselling Psychology and is an ideal option for students who are considering taking postgraduate studies in this field. Students will be acquainted with the basic philosophical, theoretical and practical foundations of Counsel-ling Psychology and will have the opportunity to explore some of the key areas that comprise the postgraduate training of counselling psychologists.
