East vs. West: Malaysian vs. Kiwi Education (Part 2). February 8, 2012. 2 Strict vs. Lax Discipline. This is superfluously obvious. While in Malaysian schools you can face disciplinary action for eating a candy, in Piopio College I have had a classmate bring food (apple caramel cake, was it? Into the class after her cooking lesson to share with the class. That includes the teacher. Of course, it depends on the teacher, but you get my point. Created using Despair, Inc. Even when a student always comes to ...

East vs. West: Malaysian vs. Kiwi Education (Part 1). February 3, 2012. During July 2010, I went to New Zealand on an American Field Service (AFS). Student exchange program for 8 weeks.

Ruminations of a naturalist. This essay, presented in several parts, represents my views on morality. I have self-published it as a short e-book on Amazon entitled “Ethics From the Ground Up” (available here. This latter fact should explain the use of the words “chapter” and “book” throughout! 3 Happiness and suffering.

About | coming of age
https://kpharri.wordpress.com/about
Ruminations of a naturalist. This blog presents a view of life from a naturalist perspective. There are three messages I wish to convey here:. First, I hope to dispel misconceptions about atheism, which is a necessary consequence of naturalism. Because I was a Christian for many years, I understand some of these misconceptions, so perhaps I can dispel them more effectively. Third, I hope to convince believers that morality can have a logically sound, objective basis in a wholly natural universe. As you c...

How vanishing points work (Part 3) | coming of age
https://kpharri.wordpress.com/2013/05/31/how-vanishing-points-work-part-3
Ruminations of a naturalist. How vanishing points work (Part 3). In the second part. Of this series, we discovered that any set of parallel lines has a single vanishing point. Let’s see what happens when there are two non-parallel lines in our field of view. Imagine standing at the corner of a field where two boundary fences meet:. We simply have to draw lines through the center of the eye that lie parallel to each fence. Here’s the bird’s eye view for the first fence:. And indeed, there are two vanishin...

Ruminations of a naturalist. Got logically consistent ethics? May 24, 2013. There is a contingent of ethical thinkers who believe that our moral instincts are the best guide to deciding what’s moral. Our moral instincts, these folks argue, constitute a reliable epistemology for ethics in a similar way that the scientific method constitutes a reliable epistemology for physics (and all that silly, unimportant stuff that relies on physics, like biology and chemistry*). This, in essence, was the purpose behi...

https://kpharri.wordpress.com/2013/05/30/how-vanishing-points-work-part-2
Ruminations of a naturalist. How vanishing points work (Part 2). In the first part. Of this series, we came up with a rule for finding the location on the retina that corresponds to the vanishing point of a straight line in our field of view. What if we have more than one straight line – will we need more than one vanishing point? Let’s consider two special cases. First, we’ll look at two. First, fence 1:. In fact, if we put the light ray drawings for the two fences together, we get:. If the person were ...
