Behavioural biologist Frans de Waal to give Freedom Lecture - News - News & Events. Behavioural biologist Frans de Waal is to give this year's Freedom Lecture on 4 June in the Pieterskerk in Leiden. De Waal has many years of experience researching the behaviour of the species of anthropoid apes. Moral behaviour in animals The title of De Waal's lecture will be From Ape to to Angel:Bosch, Bonobos and Morality without God. He will demonstrate in his lecture that moral behaviour is older than mankind, an idea that has so far not gained general acceptance. Innate morality Based to some extent on his own research with anthropoids and elephants, De Waal demonstrates that empathy and a sense of fairness are not the prerogative of humans.
Great Mind of Science Frans de Waal has written a number of pioneering books about his research: iin 1982, Chimpanzee Politics appeared, and in 2009 The Age of Empathy.

Tarpley - Surviving the Cataclysm - Your Guide Through the Greatest Financial Crisis in Human History (1999) A Summary of the Book “Surviving the Cataclysm” — News of Interest.TV. A Summary of the Book ”Surviving the Cataclysm” The comprehensive book ”Surviving the Cataclysm - Your Guide Through the Greatest Financial Crisis in Human History” by Webster Griffin Tarpley offers an excellent view of the inner workings of the US and world economy that is often concealed by the establishment media, and in the process the book hilights the futility of Barack Obama's current economic strategies while outlining an effective plan for bringing the world out of it’s worsening depression and into economic growth and prosperity.
Major topics of the book include the huge economic problems being caused by the existence of toxic ”derivative” speculation, as well as policies of the Obama administration wastefully pouring massive amounts of money into failed financial institutions rather than dedicating resources such as low-interest credit to restarting the dying US industrial base for rebuilding the nation’s infrastructure.

Top 10 Ancient Religious Sites. Religion Whether you are religious or not, it must be accepted that religion has been with us for a very long time. Some of the most monumental structures ever made have had religious functions. Today it is still possible to be moved by the ruins of these sites, even though the people who made them, and sometimes the gods they were raised to, have disappeared. Here I present ten of the most important ancient religious sites. Pop in the comments any you think I should have included. The Karnak Temple Complex Egypt Begun in the 14th century BC, by the pharaoh Ramses II, the temples of Karnak are some of the most famous in the world.
The Callanish stones on the Isle of Lewis date from roughly 2900-2600BC, around the same time stones were being brought to Stonehenge. Editors Note: As a child in the seventies in England, Stonehenge was a fascinating place. The Ziggurat of Ur Iraq The epic of Gilgamesh is the oldest written story we possess. Pyramids of Teotihuacan Mexico. 10 Unique And Amazing Places on Earth. Our World After seeing “10 More Amazing Wonders of the Natural World”, which many contained places I had never even heard of, I was inspired to make my own list.
This list differs from the previous in that it contains things which may not be stunning to behold, but are unique for their size, location, or natural impact. The Door To Hell Turkmenistan The Door to Hell, as local residents at the nearby town of Darvaza have dubbed it, is a 70 meter wide crater in Turkmenistan that has been burning continuously for 35 years. You can see it on Google Earth at 40°15? Mount Roraima Venezuela, Brazil and Guyana Mount Roraima is a pretty remarkable place. Meteor Crater is a meteorite impact crater located approximately 43 miles (69 km) east of Flagstaff, near Winslow in the northern Arizona desert of the United States. The Great Dune of Pyla France Since Europe has no deserts, you’d think the title of “Europe’s largest sand dune” would go to something that wasn’t particularly impressive.
Socotra. Modern East Asia Research Centre. University strengthens ties with China - News - News & Events. Twelve Chinese PhD candidates in the Netherlands who are funded by the China Scholarship Council met with Leiden staff on 26 April 2012 to exchange experiences. Ten days earlier Leiden had welcomed a delegation from Peking University. Mutual interests Given the growing importance of China, Western universities are keen to collaborate with Chinese partners.
China's economic power has increased strongly in a short space of time, and the country now needs highly educated workers with international experience. A programme of extensive funding, managed by the China Scholarship Council (CSC), has been set aside to achieve this aim. This programme enables Chinese students to travel to all countries of the world, including the Netherlands, to follow study programmes and train for a PhD. The Netherlands in turn supports students who want to spend part of their study time in China.
