CHAPTER 2 – ANIMAL MODELS 5. Animal models: 5.a. Neurotoxic Models: 5.a.1. 6- Hydroxydopamine model: One of the most frequently used toxin-based animal model is 6-OHDA. It was first isolated in 1950.

Marry Anne Warren’s infamous personhood argument lists 5 essential traits in order to be considered a person. These traits are: i. consciousness and capacity to feel pain, ii. reasoning, iii. self-motivated, iv. capacity to communicate, and v. presence of self-concept and self awareness.

not agree with are that I am somewhat conventional and that I tend to become anxious and nervous. Although I like feeling accepted by others, I do not believe that I am ordinary. I am always open to new experiences and meeting new people. However, I am not always open to crazy, over the top experiences. In spite of the fact that some situations do tend to make me feel anxious or nervous, I do not always feel that way. I am usually very calm and good at dealing with stressful or difficult…

On the other hand, with the results of the two assessments, I feel that I have added on a few more personalities that would assist me in the current position to be more knowledgeable and transition smooth. I am proud of the person that I am and trust that even greater things are ahead. Psalms 139:14 New Living Translations (NLT) states, “Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex…

Experience Machine The theory that pleasure is the only thing worth pursuing; the highest and most important goal in life is derived from Hedonism. The moral of Hedonism explains that pleasure brings happiness, it is good, and that of the opposite brings pain, which is bad.

Because of this theory Robert Nozick shared with us in his book, the experience machine; a machine…

The towns’ people felt her to be a tradition more then an actual person and they always thought they had the duty to be tolerant of her. Since she was separated from the town, she grew afraid of attachment, due to the fear of being…

so badly for themselves that they would cross an ocean and create a whole community out of nothing, they felt no need to create a peaceful place for non-Puritan settlers in their community: leading to many problematic relations of the future as more and more emigrants flowed into the lands like squirrels chasing…

Higher Consciousness, Christ Consciousness and Jesus I received an email from a reader questioning people 's ability to connect with higher consciousness and claiming that I have yet to be mentored by the true God--Jesus Christ. "You claim to teach the secrets of the soul, success, "finding oneself," ascension, etc. I believe you 've left out an important step and have yet to be mentored by the true God; you only promote the self-god of new age. How can I tell? Because if you had met Him, you…
