Drones: Past, Present, and Future Drones, unmanned flying robots, were first used by the military during WWI, WWII and the Vietnam War. But over 14 years ago, the CIA used the first unmanned drone in a targeted killing in the Middle East. That wartime incident put drones in the headlines and began to raise Americans’ interest, understanding and concern about the future use of drone technology. Since that time we have seen drone usage expand outside the military. Some types of drone technology have been driven by hobbyists such as the On Top of the World radio-controlled flyers club. Learn about the rise of drone technology and how they are moving us into a new chapter in aviation history.

Marsha Belcher Schaeffer and her husband, aboard their 80ft. sailboat, “Camelot”, visited the San Blas Islands. San Blas is the archipelago 50 miles off the South American coast east of Panama. They met the Cuna Indians and observed their unique culture. Their “molas”, a reverse applique blouse, had replaced the coconut as income. Their visit was prolonged when a 90’ Canadian sailboat went aground. They rescued and accommodated the crew for a week until the U.S.A. Calvary-Panama arrived to help. This was at the time of the Panama Canal giveaway. Come learn about Marsha’s story and view her collection of molas.

SCIENCE, HEALTH & WELLNESS JAY KREISMAN Greatest Science Stories Ever Told

“IN EVERY PERSON IS A KIND OF CIRCUIT WHICH RESONATES TO INTELLECTUAL DISCOVERY-AND THE IDEA IS TO MAKE THAT RESONANCE WORK.” - CARL SAGAN

SCIENCE, HEALTH & WELLNESS | Science

Gazing into the night time sky must have fascinated even earliest man. Questions no doubt were posed like “Where did all ‘this’ come from?” It wasn’t until the late 1920s that LaMaitre and Hubble observed the Universe was expanding which then led scientists to postulate the phenomenal event we call the Big Bang. But the basic question remained. To gain some insight into the answer we need to take a virtual trip back to that primordial moment and examine the early development of our Universe. We need to probe this epoch at the very beginning of time itself; at an extremely small fraction of one second! And from this study we discover the birth of Quantum Physics. We will observe that if just one small event did not occur in the early beginning, our Universe would be totally different since Quantum Physics as we know it would never have been born. But it was and from its birth we can begin to understand our night time sky. Our journey will begin by leaving Earth to travel back 13.8 billion years to the largest explosion that ever occurred in our Universe – and there was no sound!

What is Quantum Physics? Man has always been an explorer willing to push the boundaries of knowledge. We asked “Why” based on observations, designed experiments and built new theories to explain. We saw diversity everywhere we looked. All the stars observed have characteristic differences, galaxies and star clusters also widely different. Even petals from flowers on the same plant…all different. Can there be order in such diversity or is our universe really this chaotic? Around 1900 a concept was introduced that dramatically changed the world as we viewed it. It was called Quantum Physics and it has led to some of the most esoteric views of our universe which resembles science fiction. But what was the compelling evidence that led physicists to introduce such a

We will discuss this fascinating era of Physics, the struggles that world-renown physicists faced and the interpretations that will challenge our intuition. To see some of the esoteric personalities of the famous physicists, various amusing stories will be shared. Light from our sun and distant stars are from a quantum principle we call fusion.

Hawks, Owls and Other Raptors Birds that hunt for a living are some of the most interesting and fascinating members of the avian world. They employ many different techniques to gather food for themselves and their offspring. Some dive from high perches at speeds up to 200 MPH! Others stalk their prey and some just sit quietly and wait for dinner to come to them. Blessed with outstanding sight, hearing and, in some cases, sense of smell, nature’s hunters and gatherers perform invaluable services to mankind in keeping our environment in balance. From the smallest of the owls to the largest of hawks, all are especially equipped for the task at hand. Many of these birds look alike and some sound alike.

Eastern medicine focuses on mind, body and spirit. Some of the Eastern medicine practices are often referred to as “alternative medicine” or “complimentary” medicine. They can be used in concert with traditional Western medicine practices. Some of the more common practices are spiritual activities such as meditation, acupuncture, and tai chi. This form of medicine relies more on natural health treatments rather than pharmaceutical drugs, tests and operations. There is not as much scientific research or government rating systems to support Eastern medicine as with Western medicine. However, some individuals find these practices below very effective for them.

It was asked about issues involving quality, creativity, safety and the guest experience. The answer was always: Do the right thing. Speaker and author Mike Miller was the engineer who served the team during construction from 1968 to 1971.

Do you often wonder why you do the things you do and say the things you say? Learning more about the nine centers in your Human Design body graph chart may provide answers. The centers reveal the truth of who you really are, outline your strengths and weaknesses, and show your potential for growth. To receive the most benefit from this class, you will need to know your birth date, birth time and birth location. (Note: Prerequisite: Intro to Human Design)

In this class, we will journey further into the amazing world of Human Design, unraveling the mysteries of the gates and channels in the knowing circuit and the centering circuit.

Circuitry Within the channels of the Human Design body graph lie the secrets to human behavior and evolution. Much like the electrical wiring of a house, each channel in the body graph is part of a circuit, each having a unique function, purpose and experience. There are three major circuit groups: the individual, the collective and the tribal. Each of these circuits has a unique function in the evolution and spreading of information, values and survival strategies. After taking this class, you will have a better understanding of how you are “wired.” Course #: MET128 • Thursday, February 22, 2018 1:30 — 4:30PM

SOCIAL SCIENCES | Philosophy Vision Board Workshop New!

Man’s Search for Meaning New!

It's a new year -- and a great time to think about your goals and intentions for 2018. We will create a vision board to help you stay focused on your intentions. A vision board is an inspirational collage created from pictures and words.

Viktor Frankl, a psychotherapist and survivor of the German Holocaust, wrote the internationally acclaimed book, "Man’s Search for Meaning." Frankl simply framed a phrase of the quest that has pulsed through humanity from the beginning of history. This is an examination of the universal search from the beginning to the present, exploring how humans have consistently probed religion, philosophy and culture for meaning. This is a follow-up of the philosophy course, “s Life Worth Living?

Is Life Worth Living? This question has been probed from the ancients to moderns -- Job and Ecclesiastes, through Greek and Roman philosophers, epitomized by Shakespeare’s perhaps most famous line, “To be or not to be. That is the question.” Viktor Frankl's concentration camp experience led to “Man’s Search for Meaning.” The more humorous, less scholarly, Monty Python’s “The Meaning of Life” is no less serious. Ethicist Peter Singer asks: “Should we be the last generation?” Let's explore this thread of thought in Western culture. What do you think? Would you recommend life as worth living?

Socrates & More Fridays Socrates & More Mondays “Let him that would move the world first move himself.” Socrates helped others examine their lives and thinking by asking questions. Participants in Socrates & More examine their ideas, opinions and dogmas on a variety of topics. Dialogue is stimulated by TEDx talks, participants’ suggestions and current events. Differing ideas and opinions are expected and welcome. No topic is off-limits. Dialogue is dynamic and always respectful. By participating, we have the opportunity to become more thoughtful, tolerant and rational. In his essay, Creative Democracy, philosopher John Dewey wrote, “I am inclined to believe that the heart and final guarantee of democracy is in free gatherings of neighbors on the street corner to discuss back and forth what is read in uncensored news of the day, and in gatherings of friends …. to converse freely with one another. Intolerance, abuse, calling of names because of differences of opinion about religion or politics or business, as well as because of differences of race, color, wealth or degree of culture are treason to the democratic way of life.” Course #: PHI107 • Instructor: Allie Gore • Classroom: Cypress Hall • Member: Free, Non-Member: $5 • Fridays, January 19, February 2, 16, March 2, 16, 30, April 13, 27, May 11 and 25, 2018 1:30 — 3:00PM Course #: PHI102 • Mondays, January 8, 22, February 5, 19, March 6, 19, April 2, 16, 30 and May 14, 2018 2:30 — 4:00PM

SOCIAL SCIENCES | Psychology | Public Safety What Makes an American?

Psychoanalytic Studies New!

This has been debated since the founding of the country, with the 1790 naturalization act the first to weigh-in. The birth of a nation was but a step in a mature political understanding of a political, non-ethic identity. Social self-awareness is something dynamic, not static. How will the recent presidential election affect our group consciousness?

Learn what psychoanalysis can teach you about your personality and potential. Psychoanalysis is based on the idea that people are complex, and that what makes us unique is our intricately woven thoughts, feelings and beliefs. The basic workshop offers the opportunity to investigate personal issues in a unique way.

American’s motto, e pluribus Unum, can be interpreted variously. What should be our American identity: A melting pot or a salad bowl? Ought we be heterogeneous or homogeneous? Should there be a hyphenated American? Is the American dream more than economic? As the world becomes more globalized, how might it affect our American identity?

Religion | Volunteering 500th Anniversary of the Protestant Reformation The Protestant Reformation began 500 years ago when Martin Luther posted his now-famous 95 Theses on a church door in Wittenberg, Germany. With that small act, Luther set off a chain reaction that changed the course of history. The Protestant Reformation grew out of frustrations with the Catholic Church, the most powerful religious entity of the time. In the years after Martin Luther’s 95 Theses, Protestant churches began popping up across the German-speaking areas of the Holy Roman Empire and beyond.

Paul Kurtz the Secular Humanist Nonreligious people are sometimes accused of not believing in anything, but Secular Humanism proves that assumption wrong and prejudicial. In this presentation, we will take a closer look at Secular Humanism by examining the life and teaching of Paul Kurtz (1925-2012), who once said, "The beginning of wisdom is the awareness that there is insufficient evidence that a god or gods have created us and the recognition that we are responsible in part for our own destiny." Kurtz was a secular leader who devoted more time and energy to the life-stance of "Humanism without gods" than almost anyone else in the contemporary world.
