    In 1963, Stanley Milgram, an assistant professor of psychology at Yale, published his infamous experiment on obedience to authority. Its conclusion was that most ordinary people were willing to administer what they believed to be painful, even dangerous, electric shocks to innocent people if a man in a white lab coat told them to.
    For the first time in four decades, a researcher has repeated the Milgram experiment (…)

    20 January 2009 par (Open-Publishing)

    On Jan. 19, 2009, a huge, inflated doll figure, about 20 feet tall, of President George W. Bush, was set up in DuPont Circle, in Washington, D.C., by antiwar activists. It was dressed in the outfit that Dubya wore when he did his stupid “Mission Accomplished” stunt a few years back. The figure was used as shoe and boot target practice by the protesters. Like Pinocchio of the Italian fairy tale, the Bush character, “Bushoccio,” had a very, very long nose. A recent study indicated that the (…)

    “When a nation goes down...they forgot where they came from. They lost sight of what brought them along.” - Carl Sandburg
    On Monday, Jan. 19, 2009, hundreds of antiwar activists got a chance to shout “good riddance” to George W. Bush—one of the worst presidents in all of American history. They did it by blasting him for his eight warmongering, torture-approving and lawbreaking years in the Oval Office (2001-2009). The lively rally was held at DuPont Circle, in Washington, D.C.
