WINOL (20/03/2013)



This week, WINOL's News Bulletin was a #Budget2013 Special. As part of the Features/Production Team, I was volunteered to book the guests - this was crucial as it mean't the bulletin would be legally safe and balanced. 

My struggle with News last semester made this a very daunting task. I was, however, able to get the contact details of a Labour Party Member from one of the News Team.

You can see the result above ^ (9.38 approx)

HCJ Seminar Paper (14/03/2013)


The 1950's/60's was a time of prosperity within the USA and the developed world. The outlook was highly KEYNESIAN, as the failure of Communism lead to Capitalism being seen as a more efficient and effective way to progress. Branding and Advertising, described as the ‘drug of the nation’, was used to appeal to a person’s subconscious wants and desires, with the rise in Finance Capital paving the way for a more nihilistic outlook. People became self-indulgent, adopting smoking for example, and much more materialistic. Classic Economists such as ADAM SMITH and DAVID HUME were now obsolete as the increase in capital became the height of social worth and the purpose of existence. Bigger organisations were being set up to accommodate the necessary ‘means of production’ with America now being viewed as a “Free Market Capitalist Economy”.

L2: "Logic and Mathematics"

FREGE AND RUSSELL.

'Natural Numbers' - Words used to count. Created from Abstract Categories or Groups. "Plural" - Combination of Numbers/WordsSmall Numbers different function to Large Numbers (logically reach up to 6/7 before start to count).

-(8545)- Basic Symbols Organised According to Syntax (inferred system of rules). Can be Analysed Through Division, etc. Addition and Multiplication as "Plurals of Plurals". Technology as innate part of Neurological Syntax. [CHOMSKY] A Basic Logical Language containing Limited Human Intelligence (predictive text, etc). 

Three attitudes towards numbers:

1) They are natural and empirical/observed. [RUSSELL]
2) They are intuitive [PYTHAGORAS/PLATO] - Numbers are from a different world. "Supernatural".
3) They are abstract objects [FREGE] that modify meaning. Not something we learn so must be innate [CHOMSKY]

Apes able to distinguish Simple Plurality0 (the absence of a thing/"one thing"), 1 (one/enough/"more than one thing") and 2 (a lot/unlimited/more than one/"many things") - All are strong natural numbers.
