7. BROWN BEAR • The brown bear, the most widely distributed bear species in the world, was named a species of "least concern"—meaning the bears are not threatened with extinction. • The grizzly, a subspecies of the brown bear, has successfully rebounded in parts of the United States, thanks to U.S. Endangered Species Act protection. • Human settlements near brown bear habitats are increasingly becoming "mortality sinks" where the animals are poached or inadvertently (tahtmatult) killed. 8. THE AMERICAN BLACK BEAR • Thriving in Canada, the United States, and Mexico, this is the only bear species considered secure throughout its range. • An enormous amount of effort and funding for conservation and management continue to be directed at bears in North America, where their status is relatively favorable. CONCLUSION • Six of the world's eight bear species—75 percent—are threatened with extinction.
know it, as he doesn't yet know that Romeo has married Juliet. Mercutio, who is also unaware of the marriage, is angered by Tybalt's insolence and Romeo's seeming indifference and takes up the challenges himself. Benvolio tries to make peace and reminds everyone of the Prince's decree. In the ensuing swordplay, Romeo attempts to allay Mercutio's anger, momentarily placing his arm around him. By doing so, however, Romeo inadvertently pulls Mercutio into Tybalt's rapier, fatally wounding him. Mercutio dies, wishing "a plague a'both your houses," before he passes. Romeo, in his anger, pursues and slays Tybalt. Although under the Prince of Verona's proclamation Romeo (and Montague and Capulet, as well) would be subject to the death penalty, the Prince instead fines the head of each house, and reduces Romeo's punishment to exile in recognition that Tybalt had killed Mercutio, who had
might have been in danger, but only that he would have been in danger had he been in the room. He tells Laertes the same thing as he attempts to soothe the young man's anger after his father's death. Claudius is ultimately too crafty for his own good. In Act V, scene ii, rather than allowing Laertes only two methods of killing Hamlet, the sharpened sword and the poison on the blade, Claudius insists on a third, the poisoned goblet. When Gertrude inadvertently drinks the poison and dies, Hamlet is at last able to bring himself to kill Claudius, and the king is felled by his own cowardly machination. Gertrude Few Shakespearean characters have caused as much uncertainty as Gertrude, the beautiful Queen of Denmark. The play seems to raise more questions about Gertrude than it answers, including: Was she involved with Claudius before the death of her husband? Did she love her husband? Did she know about Claudius's plan to commit the murder
supposed to speak.) · If possible, place your notes on top or on a shelf of the lectern in advance, rather than carrying them with you. Having your notes already in place on the lectern is a small touch that avoids having to carry them up, lay them on the stand, and play with or shuffle them. This technique, however, is not foolproof. Someone did that once and the speaker before me inadvertently carried his notes away with him. (One solution is to place your notes underneath, on the small shelf usually located within the lectern.) · The worst of all room settings is a small audience seated in a large room. Speaking to a small group in the ballroom of a hotel is intimidating to everyone: The speaker is distracted by all the empty space and the audience is reluctant to relax or become involved with the speaker

Suppose you were a TV producer given the delicate job of creating a series of public service programs designed to reduce teenage suicide. Knowing that research sug- gests that previous programming may have inadvertently increased teen suicides via the principle of social proof, what would you do to use the same principle to make it likely that your shows would reduce the problem among those who watched? Who would you interview on-camera? Would any of them be troubled teenagers? Which questions would you ask them? 4. Describe a situation in your past in which you were tricked into compliance by some- one who counterfeited the principle of social proof
9 Objection 2 Evans (1973) points out that names can change their reference unbeknownst, through mishap or error, but the CausalHistorical Theory as presented so far cannot allow for that. According to Evans,10 the name "Madagascar" originally named, not the great African island, but a portion of the mainland; the change was ultimately due to a misunderstanding of Marco Polo's. Or: Two babies are born, and their mothers bestow names upon them. A nurse inadvertently switches them and the error is never discovered. It will henceforth undeniably be the case that the man universally known as "Jack" is so called because a woman dubbed some other baby with the name. (Evans 1973: 196) Proper names: Direct Reference and the CausalHistorical Theory 57 We do not want to be forced to say that our use of "Madagascar" still des-

You come into the world as pure potential, with unlimited abilities in countless areas. As the result of de- structive criticism in childhood, you can inadvertently develop fears of failure, loss, rejection, and criticism. You can develop self-limiting beliefs that hold you back.

" He frowned down at my hands, releasing me from the force of his stare. "And then, as I tried to rearrange my schedule in a pointless attempt to avoid you, you were there -- in that close, warm little room, the scent was maddening. I so very nearly took you then. There was only one other frail human there -- so easily dealt with." I shivered in the warm sun, seeing my memories anew through his eyes, only now grasping the danger. Poor Ms. Cope; I shivered again at how close I'd come to being inadvertently responsible for her death. "But I resisted. I don't know how. I forced myself not to wait for you, not to follow you from the school. It was easier outside, when I couldn't smell you anymore, to think clearly, to make the right decision. I left the others near home -- I was too ashamed to tell them how weak I was, they only knew something was very wrong -- and then I went straight to Carlisle, at the hospital, to tell him I was leaving." I stared in surprise.
the American government, in effect handing the cryptanalysts the plaintext (or its translation) of an entire dispatch. (State reportedly did not pass the texts of confidential notes to the cryptanalysts, though this would have helped them considerably and was done by other foreign ministries.) Japan's Foreign Office often had to circulate the same text to several embassies, not all of which had a PURPLE machine, and a code clerk might have inadvertently encoded some cables in PURPLE, some in other systems— which the cryptanalysts could read. A comparison of times of dispatch and length, and voilá!—another crib to a cryptogram. Errors were, as always, a fruitful source of clues. As late as November, 1941, the Manila legation repeated a telegram "because of a mistake on the plugboard." How much more common must errors have been when the code clerks were just learning to handle the machine! The sending of

Studies have demonstrated that just 30 grams of soy per day (about two tablespoons) for 90 days can disrupt thyroid function, and that's in Japanese subjects. The Swiss Federal Health Service equated 100 milligrams of iso avones (phytoestrogens) to a single birth control pill in terms of estrogenic impact. How many birth control pills are you inadvertently eating each day?
