'Charting the Course'
is an education
proposal
that encourages
more whole brain
thinking,
the reliance
on
interhemispheric
thinking,
which brings
together
dominant
left-
and
right-brained
thinkers, in a
closed, holistic
learning network.

The author of this
website has written
in her book, Holistic
Living: Tips for
Youth, how
people along the
autism spectrum are
naturally more
right-brained,
while "neurotypical"
people, tend to, from a young age, become dominant
left-brained
thinkers, with the exception that both
character-types
access interhemispheric, and graduated, thought.

The 'Charting the Course' education proposal
shares a vision for a school system that will help all character-types, including people who are dominant left-brained thinkers, who think more linearly, and who are dominant right-brained thinkers, who think more by association, in part by bringing them together into one classroom.

The proposal is also for a single, closed, holistic system, which interweaves the modern education system with holistic, closed systems of the world.

The full education
proposal

Putting an End to the Violence
By Yasha Melanie Husain
December 2012

It's time to put an end to unnecessary violence and a way to do that is to pass restrictive legislation pertaining to gunholders' rights, and the sale and purchase of guns, that helps set new precedence for a nation that has become too gun happy, along its borders and in the interior.

Law enforcement officials whose sole desire is to fight crime on a daily basis and who logically wish to stop crimes that result from gun use need more restrictive legislation to do their job, as was made evident by the recent scandal involving Attorney General Eric Holder in which an exhaustive effort to track gun carriers was botched. Research into that event showed ATF officials trying to accomplish a lot with a little. They were trying to accomplish a lot of security with few legal tools at their hands to intervene where and when they see guns sold and purchased, they are led to believe, for illegal means.

Guns are meant to be used for hunting and it would seem necessary that they be used defensively by law enforcement and military. The use of semi-automatic weapons it's been agreed by politicians should be outlawed, but so too for recreational use of guns, if use of weapons precludes practical practice, like hunting or military defense.

If the nation did not have a problem with gun control issues there would be no reason to tackle them with legislation that prohibits the use of guns to only peaceful purposes. But the nation has a problem, as is clear from the repeated mass killings by lone gunmen over the last several years.

Setting a precedence sets a new bar for a culture that regrets its gun crime in the first place. Thereafter, when gun crime has been eradicated, perhaps it will be a time that the laws can revert back to the Second Amendment, plain and simple. But extreme measures call for balancing acts, and right now the government must act to help bring an end to the unnecessary violence plaguing an otherwise beautiful and peaceful nation.
