![]() ![]() Ed wears a dress as a disguise, and is referred to by Jet as his daughter - however, the person they’re trying to fool doesn’t seem entirely convinced Ed’s a girl, and she takes off the dress as soon as she possibly can while Jet stays in disguise. The episode where they leave the group ends with “See you cowgirl, someday, somewhere!” rather than the usual “See you space cowboy.” At one point, Spike says “the women are gone” in reference to Ed and Faye. The only things that would imply gender are circumstantial. It’s the same when she’s reunited with her estranged father, who apparently doesn’t know or care about Ed’s gender any more than Ed herself does - Ed doesn’t say one way or another. At one point Faye says “wait, you’re a girl?” and Ed doesn’t confirm or deny it, just laughs. She refers to herself in the third person, rather than using gendered first-person pronouns. In the show itself, her gender is presented in a much more ambiguous fashion. However, in the original Japanese, Ed is rarely gendered, and only genders herself in the movie. This is no doubt why translations go with she/her pronouns for Ed. She’s voiced by a female VA, the character designer has referred to her as a girl, she was apparently changed from a boy to a girl to even the gender ratio aboard the Bebop, and her character profile in the Hajime Yatate manga¹ lists her gender as female. So while I might personally choose to see Ed as agender, and there is quite a bit of evidence to support that reading, I’m not sure I’d go so far as to call it “overwhelming.” As far as this database is concerned, I must take the official stance that Ed is a girl.įor the sake of clarity and posterity - meaning I don’t want to throw out my writing - I’m including a lightly edited version of my agender reading of Ed, which covers most of the points for and against it.Įd’s official gender is female. If I’m willing to disregard direct statements in favor of my own readings, it would be too easy for the line between my personal headcanons and the media as it actually exists to blur. This is mostly an attempt at retaining something resembling objectivity. My policy is to be very literal-minded with this database - if a character explicitly states their gender, that’s what I go with, unless there’s some overwhelming evidence against it. The night before it was supposed to go up, I figured I should probably watch the movie, Cowboy Bebop: Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door, which I’d never previously seen. I’ll be honest: I had this post done, dusted, and queued well over a month ago, with a good 550 words about how Ed was agender.

Its operations and subsidiaries in Canada, the United Kingdom ( ASDA), Central America, South America, and China are successful, but its ventures failed in Germany, Japan, South Korea, Brazil and Argentina. A Walmart in York, Pennsylvania, opened in October 1990, the first main store in the Northeast. Sam's Club opened in New Jersey in November 1989, and the first California outlet opened in Lancaster, in July 1990. The company was originally geographically limited to the South and lower Midwest, but it had stores from coast to coast by the early 1990s. By 1988, it was the most profitable retailer in the U.S., and it had become the largest in terms of revenue by October 1989. Walmart was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1972. Walmart was the largest United States grocery retailer in 2019, and 65 percent of Walmart's US$510.329 billion sales came from U.S. Sam Walton's heirs own over 50 percent of Walmart through both their holding company Walton Enterprises and their individual holdings.

These philosophers disagreed with Kant’s talk of another kind of reflection-one about practical affairs. ![]() The entities of which the world is composed are not the sorts of things that could make choices. That is, it assumes that ultimately everything that happens can be explained by what has happened in the past. This can give us only a phenomenal world of appearances, and it is purely deterministic. Some followed Kant in assuming that “knowledge” is limited to what is empirically known. This conversation seemed relevant to much of the university community, but it had its home in philosophy.Īlready there were other philosophers who wanted to redefine their task. Whitehead directly addressed all of these issues in original ways. Immanuel Kant offered an epistemological dualism to replace Rene Descartes’, but many Americans were not satisfied. Cartesian dualism, which arose in the seventeenth century under the hallmark of separating mind from body-humans from the natural world-was disrupted by evolutionary theory of the nineteenth century, which emphasized the continuity of things. In different ways these developments raised questions about the relation of human beings to the rest of the world and the place of values and of religious ideas, including the reality of God. Among the most important such issues were those stimulated by developments in biology and physics. When Whitehead flourished, universities understood themselves to be places for intellectual reflection and conversation about the issues of concern in the wider culture. The change has been in the nature of philosophy and of the university as a whole. If that were the case, the small ghetto of which I wrote would not exist. I think I can say without fear of contradiction that the change did not result from the refutation of Whitehead or by improvement on his work. ![]() The Roles and Fortunes of Whitehead’s Thought Those of us who appraise Whitehead as one of the great philosophers of all time constitute a tiny ghetto with few participants in major academic centers. Today there is no interest in his thought at Harvard or, indeed, at the great majority of American universities. His role in the United States extended beyond the university to a segment of the general public. During that period and for some years thereafter he was regarded as one of the leading philosophers in the United States-a good many people would have listed him as the most important. But fewer may be familiar with Whitehead’s place in the history of ideas and the community that has developed in response.Īlfred North Whitehead was a revered teacher at Harvard University from 1924-37. ![]() Many who are familiar with Pando Populus know of its intellectual roots in the process thought of Alfred North Whitehead. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is how Stephen developed an interest in public speaking.

But the children each chose their own path, and the business was sold.Īs a teenager, Stephen Covey was diagnosed with a lack of bone tissue. The parents expected one of the children to start running a family business called Little America. His family owned a chain of hotels, guesthouses and truck stops in Wyoming, inherited from his grandfather. By the way, among numerous professional awards, he also received the American Paternity Prize.Ī good future was prepared for Stephen. Stephen took over his mother’s upbringing and eventually became a happy father of nine children and a grandfather to 52 grandchildren. His mother, an ordinary parishioner in a local church, busy only with raising children, went to his bed at night, carefully covered and repeated like a mantra: “Everything you dream of, you will definitely achieve”. In addition to him, five more children were brought up in the family. The future speaker and lecturer was born in Salt Lake City, the USA, in the family of a scientist and researcher. When Stephen was a child he had support in all his endeavors. Under his careful guidance, readers began to develop skills that changed their perception and helped to understand how the world around them works. Unlike manuals of this kind, Stephen Covey offered clear strategies for success without wasting a single printed page on verbal “water”. The book immediately became a desktop in the highest cabinets and offices – business owners and top managers received a manual on managing their own lives and a set of rules for achieving personal effectiveness. In his work, the author emphasized that values govern human behavior, but it is the principles that determine the result. Time magazine named it one of the 25 most influential business books. Today it has been translated into 40 languages and has sold over 30 million copies.
