Comment on UCSD Associated Students Want to Control You on Campus by Josh

No one cares if you smoked at one time or another, no one cares if you “smoke a pack a day” right now. Make room in your own little mind for the possibility that when a person is smoking on the campus, on a walkway, it effects all those around that person who have to travel in that general direction. Smoking is not a personal experience it is a public one, when done in public space. The smoker has no control over where the smoke goes, it gets in the lungs of all the people who happen to be nearby. This is the major issue with smoking. There are other issues such as the health factor, the smell, the loitering, the trash from butts, the possibility of starting a fire. Face it people are health oriented these days, no one wants to breath dirty cigarette smoke on the way to class. Do you?
You have lost more rights in this country with less fuss. Its the fact that so many people will be affected on a day to day basis and cannot quit because they are weak minded as to why this is even an issue. Not to say that if a ban were to happen that people would follow the law anyways. People smoke wherever, whenever, with no regard to the public good, or the thoughts of others, or even of the legal implications for themselves. Its a self-destructive drug, now go smoke a cigarette and comment on this.

It is not from your benevolence with the butcher, the brewer, or even the baker that we expect our dinner, but off their regard to their personal interest.
In modern business it’s not at all the crook that is being feared most, oahu is the honest man who doesn’t know what he could be doing.

Comment on Lies, Damned Lies, and Higher Education by milan moravec

UC Berkeley (UCB) pulls back access and affordability to instate Californians. Chancellor Robert J Birgeneau displaces Californians qualified for public Cal. with a $50,600 payment from born abroad foreign and out of state affluent students. And, foreign and out of state tuition is subsidized in the guise of diversity while instate tuition/fees are doubled.

UCB is not increasing enrollment. Birgeneau accepts $50,600 foreign students and displaces qualified instate Californians (When depreciation of Calif. funded assets are included (as they should be), out of state and foreign tuition is more than $100,000 + and does NOT subsidize instate tuition). Like Coaches, Chancellors Who Do Not Measure-Up Must Go.

More recently, Chancellor Birgeneau’s campus police deployed violent baton jabs on Cal. students protesting Birgeneau’s tuition increases. The sky will not fall when Birgeneau and his $450,000 salary are ousted. Opinions make a difference; email UC Board of Regents marsha.kelman@ucop.edu

Comment on U.S. Invites War with World: Intellectual Privilege, Jurisdiction, and Property Rights by Matt

Matt — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 16:42:58 +0000

Dear Californiareview,
Maybe a little off topic, however, During the Second World War, when most men were busy fighting battles on the frontlines, women assumed important roles in the society. In fact, some women also contributed to World War II, but there is hardly any mention of their sacrifice and efforts in the record books. It was during this period that women left their homes and hearth to work in shipyards and other workplaces, which were earlier male bastions. Many women also fought bravely at the frontlines alongside their male compatriots.
