Memorize the Faith! (and Most Anything Else): Using the Methods of the Great Catholic Medieval Memory Masters List Price: $19.95 Sale Price: $10.00 |
|
Kevin Vost, PSY.D. Even saints can't live by truths they can't remember. That's why, over 700 years ago, St. Thomas Aquinas devised a method to help him recall the teachings of our Faith. It's so simple and easy that, over the years, countless Christians have relied on it... and so can you! Refining techniques taught by the ancient philosophers, St. Thomas created a mental "memory mansion" and a way to store information in its "rooms," where it remains, fresh and accessible, until you return to retrieve it. Because it's a system that can be used to remember anything, Aquinas's method is more powerful and more flexible than all the memory tricks we learned as school children. No wonder author Dr. Kevin Vost has used a "memory mansion" for years now to help him recall names, dates, birthdays, grocery lists, and a host of other things, including (just for fun, and in forward and backward order) random fifty-digit numbers called out to him by students in his college classes. Of course, St. Thomas created his memory system for tasks more serious than that. Specifically, he designed it so we could come to know God better and love Him more. In these pages, Dr. Vost remains faithful to St. Thomas's vision, showing how you can use this system to recall hundreds of key Church teachings, Bible verses, theological terms, and other elements of the Faith every Catholic needs to know by heart. Soon you'll be able to recite in an instant the 10 Commandments, the 12 Apostles, the 7 Cardinal Virtues, the 7 Capital Sins, the 9 Beatitudes, the 14 Stations of the Cross, and more, including (just for fun!) all 73 books of the Bible... in their proper order! Memorize the Faith! is a treasure for any Catholic overwhelmed by data today. Read it and watch your memory power grow, along with your love for God, who is the Author of memory and its final end. |

Dna Laboratory Errors That Sent Wrong Man to Prison
The introduction of genetic evidence into the courtroom is making justice more certain, for both the guilty and the innocent.
Thanks to advancements in science and technology, law enforcement officials and prosecutors are relying more and more on DNA evidence during criminal investigations and trials of criminal cases in order to prove with certainty that someone committed a crime.
But clerical errors in DNA handling and interpretation have caused the innocents to be convicted of crimes.
In 1999, a sample taken from a burglary scene had matched to six loci on the DNA molecule of one of 700,000 persons in national database. The suspect had alibis and incapable to commit the crime and yet, he was wrongfully took in for imprisonment. The reasoning was that his DNA pattern would occur only once in 37 million individuals.
Despite the statistical calculation of 1 in 37 million on six loci, however it does NOT mean that the six loci cannot match more than one person in 37 million. According to population geneticists, it is indeed possible to have the six loci match in perhaps many dozens of individuals whose DNA is contained in a databank of 700,000.
The police in Great Britain maintain a DNA database that has grown from 470,000 potential suspects in 1998 to over 700,000 during 1999. The Forensic Science Service manages the U.K. database. It is now reported that ten loci will henceforth be used routinely when comparing known samples against unknown DNA fragments.
The FBI is reported to test 13 different loci, which minimizes the chance of matching an innocent suspect by chance.
This misinterpretation of the statistical results in light of the case circumstances was revealed by British authorities only in January of 2000 when a law enforcement conference of DNA specialists worldwide meeting.
That was 6 months freedom of the innocently convicted that has been luckily cleared off from his 'conviction'.
This month, Illinois fired its DNA lab, Fairfax County-based Bode Technology, for failing to detect semen in 11 out of 51 rape cases. State police said the errors had not wrongly freed or convicted anyone, but they said they would have to reanalyze evidence in 1,200 rape cases.
At a July murder trial in Michigan, prosecutors acknowledged that a DNA test on evidence from 1969 matched someone who would have been 4 years old at the time of the slaying and couldn't possibly have been involved. Additional tests led to a second man, who was convicted.
DNA reliability has been lauded nationally as the most reliable evidence known. It is just miscalculation in a lot of factors, which should not happen.

analytic geometry question ,--another one??!!?
In a system of axes consider the point A(4,0) . A variable point M(x,y) varies in the plane such that y>0
a.Determine the locus of M when the area of triangle AOM remains equal to 6.
b.Give the equation of the locus of M.
Let the base of the triangle be line segment OA.
If point M is at (x,y), then the height of the triangle = y.
Area = (1/2) * base * height
= (1/2) * 4 * y
= 2y
a.
If the area is 6, then 2y = 6
y = 3, So the locus of M is:
A line located at:
b. y=3
