Teaching Philosophy as a Way of Life with Respect to Our Being
Get PDFWhat distinguishes philosophy is its attention to reality and sense as such, or what is traditionally called being and essence. As a result, philosophy as a way of life is, most fundamentally, not directly a matter of doing one kind of thing rather than another outside the classroom but instead of how we live with respect to our being. Enacting our being in one way rather than another inflects whatever it is we do, wherever we do it, even if none of the content of what we then do involves the content of philosophy. Consequently, if we do nothing in engaging philosophy but study it in the traditional, apparently unlived way in the classroom, we are in active relation to our being, and this is fully living philosophy as a way of life. We need, then, to reconceive conventional classroom philosophy as itself not primarily an intellectual exercise but an exercise of being. The essay elaborates on this point and its consequences for teaching philosophy
Discrete Complementary Exponential and Sine Integral Functions
Get PDFDiscrete analogues of the sine integral and complementary exponential integral functions are investigated. Hypergeometric representation, power series, and Laplace transforms are derived for each. The difficulties in extending these definitions to other common trigonometric integral functions are discussed

А review of \u3ci\u3eHeterometrus\u3c/i\u3e in Thailand (Scorpiones: Scorpionidae)
Get PDFFive species of the genus Heterometrus Ehrenberg, 1828 are currently confirmed from Thailand and revised, with their respective distribution range in this country updated. Heterometrus laevigatus (Thorell, 1876) is considered a nomen dubium, while its two previous junior synonyms, H. cimrmani Kovařík, 2004, stat. rev. and H. minotaurus Plíšková et al., 2016, stat. rev. are revalidated and redescribed based on the examination of topotypes. Females of H. minotaurus Plíšková et. al., 2016, stat. rev. were also collected and examined, and their characters are herein described with a special attention to sexual dimorphism. Furthermore, some populations previously regarded as H. laoticus Couzijn, 1981 found in Thailand turned out to belong to H. silenus (Simon, 1884). Additionally, ambiguous records of H. spinifer (Ehrenberg, 1828) in Thailand are now confirmed. Finally, we speculate that the difference in pedipalp length between males of H. cimrmani and H. minotaurus is evolved due to the armspan competitio
