Many emerging human infectious diseases developing in our world are zoonotic in origin. These infections carry unique response requirements because public health authorities must respond to both the animal and human population requirements. Take a look at Bioterrorism with Zoonotic Disease: Public Health Preparedness Lessons from a Multiagency Exercise by Jackson & Buehler, et al. and Davies' Securitizing Infectious Disease. What lessons does this local exercise provide for a national security policy development? Given the limited resources to respond to an event how can local public health officials contribute to this national policy development? (prompt written by Denise Baken PhD)

Figure 2.11 shows bathymetric maps of parts of the Mid-Atlantic ridge and East Pacific Rise at the same scale. We have learned that the depth of the sea floor depends on the age of its lithosphere. The lithosphere near the ridge axis is thin, still hot, and therefore has a relatively low density. As a result, it floats relatively high on the underlying asthenosphere. As the plate moves away from the ridge, the lithosphere cools and thickens, becoming denser. It therefore sinks and the ocean is deeper over the older rocks than over the ridge crest and nearby rocks. EXERCISE 2.7 — A TALE OF TWO RIDGES a. Ocean ridges typically have a rift valley at their axes. Which of the two ridges in Figure 2.11 has the best developed rift valley? b. Keeping in mind the age vs. depth relationship, why is the belt of shallow sea wider over the East Pacific Rise than over the Mid-Atlantic Ridge? c. On the graph provided, plot depth (on the vertical axis) against distance from the ridge axis (on the horizontal axis), for both the East Pacific Rise, and the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Use 5-10 points for each ridge. Connect the dots for EPR with red pencil, and those for the MAR with green pencil to make cross sections of each ridge. d. Does the rate at which the depth with distance from the ridge stay the same over time, decrease over time, or increase over time?

1. Chinese religion is built upon four basic foundation blocks. Understanding these and how they relate is vital to properly understand Chinese religion! What are those four ideas, and how would you summarize each in your own words? How do these ideas fit into Daoism and Confucianism? What is your general reaction to these four ideas, and which one do you find most intriguing? 2. Confucius lived during a time of great social upheaval and disorder. Much of his teaching is a response to that situation. Please respond to the following: What were the two ideals held by Confucius and what did he see as the key to their fulfillment? How would you summarize the sources of human excellence according to Confucius? What is your response to these Confucian values? 3. As the text points out, in Confucian thinking to a great extent, human being are their relationships. Yet not all relationships are equal, so Confucianism has a hierarchy known as The Five Great Relationships. What is your response to how the relationships are ranked in importance? How do you react to the idea that following these leads to social harmony? What do you think about the Confucian idea of seeing each other strongly in terms of relationships and social roles rather than individuals? 4. Daoism has one book which is considered by most to be a central scripture for their religion, which is discussed in the text reading. What are the two names for the book? What concept is often referenced in this book, and how would you attempt to describe this concept? Do you like/dislike, agree/disagree with the kind of thinking found in this concept? 5. Reading your reactions to the kind of thinking found in the Daodejing has been enjoyable! Let's consider the main teachings of Daoism from the Daodejing and the Zhuangzi. Please respond to the following: What are the four main teachings, and how would you describe each of them in your own words? How do you respond to the teachings, and why? 6. A passage found in the Daodejing declares: "The softest things in this world May be harder than the hardest Soft water can wear away the hardest rock; Soft water can go through the strongest calm. Knowing this, I know the value of calm. Knowing this, I know the value of patience. Knowing this, I know the value of persistence." What might be examples of "soft" and "hard" things? Can you recall an example in your own life which illustrates this passage? Do you see American culture as more "hard" or "soft", and why?

Week 3 Discussion 1 Background: When the First World War ended, Americans welcomed what they hoped would be a "return to normalcy." The decades that followed, however, are ones which would rarely be described as normal in comparison to what came before or after. During these decades, a struggle ensued within the American nation regarding how best to define the nation's essential character, as groups like the revived Ku Klux Klan fought a rearguard action to define nationhood solely in terms of white skin and Protestant religion against secularists, Catholics, flappers, "New Negroes," and others who challenged the traditional order. Immediately thereafter, the New Deal implemented in response to the Great Depression revolutionized the role of the federal government in lives of the American people, in ways that many Americans believed violated the basic tenets of the Constitution—and others believed were not radical enough. Taken together, the decades from 1920 to 1940 may have transformed the American nation more than any other comparable time period.

Journal Reflection: Israel's religious stories, cult, temple, priesthood, laws, and kingship have extensive detailed parallels with non-Israelite religions in Canaan, Egypt, and elsewhere in the ancient Near East. How much influence did these early religious traditions have on the formation of Judaism and later on Christianity and Islam? How are religious laws (code) and rituals (cult) operative in the religious tradition you are most familiar with? Do they, too, partly serve to draw boundaries and foster group identity? Some have criticized Judaism's concept of Jews being God's chosen people. Why do you think some might criticize this idea? Do you think the criticisms are valid or not? How are the stories of the Hebrews understood by contemporary Jews? The content of the Hebrew Bible forms the foundation for three major Western religions—Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Stories of creation, the great flood, Abraham, Moses, and the prophets fill the pages along with prayers and poetry. So how do these texts remain relevant in the twenty-first century? In the Jewish tradition, how is scripture read and interpreted? How do rituals and worship reflect the creed and code of ethics of modern Jews?
