Kevin Rudd is, arguably, one of those voices; and has voiced a commitment to seek solutions. What I find disappointing is that Kevin Rudd’s solution entails the funding of detention centres [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mqphil.wordpress.com&amp;blog=899800&amp;post=194&amp;subd=mqphil&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There is an interesting post over at PEA Soup, discussing whether grad students should be encouraged not to publish. While the comments aren&#8217;t resembling any sort of agreement to the argument, the idea is that publishing while a grad student could hurt their job prospects. What do you all think?

		<description><![CDATA[This week two Macquarie academics, Dr. Cynthia Townley and Dr. Mitch Parsell from the department of Philosophy, were featured on the ABC program 'Good Game'.  The story was titled 'A Moral Choice' and explored the relationship between Ethics, Morality and the playing of video games.  It's only a short story, as you'd expect in a half hour program, but some interesting points are conveyed.  I do have to say, however, that Father Bob was a little disapointing.  The video can be found here -&#62; http://www.abc.net.au/tv/goodgame/stories/s2409028.htm<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=mqphil.wordpress.com&amp;blog=899800&amp;post=148&amp;subd=mqphil&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
