Army of Shadows Series: Part 1

by Adam Scherr on June 28, 2011

We are at war. You might even call it “the big one.” There have been many casualties. Many lives lost. We are at war. I might even call it WWIII. Who is the enemy? Who are the allies? So many lives have been lost. We are at war.

The enemy is addiction. The weapons of mass destruction are drugs. We are at war. Who are we fighting? Who is the enemy? We are fighting addiction. Addiction is truly a terrorist? Where are the troops? Where are the special forces? Where are our weapons? We are at war. Help.

More to be revealed…

The Authentic Learning Experience

June 22, 2011

“To be a successful stoner, you just take a bunch of adderall” was the mantra told to me during finals. Okay, so I’m not a stoner, and I don’t have ADHD but during the finals push the option to take adderall can be highly seductive. For those of you who might not be familiar with [...]

Graduation

June 3, 2011

I love graduations. They are a time when time is suspended. A time very much akin to the Roman God Janus, who is the god of beginnings and transitions, a god of doorways.  A god, a time, a place where there are two aspects, two faces. One face looking back at the past and the other [...]

June 1, 2011

Try to get your thought wrapped around this. You might need a Phd. I can’t fathom. I don’t want to fathom. It can’t be true. Don’t want it to be true… Alcoholism accounts for 500 million lost workdays each and every year. That is 500,000,000…9 zero’s. While we are at it, it is half a [...]

To Be, or not to be

May 4, 2011

Why does everyone say: “what would Jesus do?” The real question is: “What did Jesus do?” For that answer start with Matthew and don’t stop until you have a Revelation. Word

Bande a part

May 2, 2011

“It is dangerous to be right in matters on which the established authorities are wrong.” Voltaire I recently read an article (what else is new) in The Telegraph : French riot police threaten to strike over alcohol ban. “France’s riot police have complained about being “treated like children” following a new ban on drinking alcohol [...]

Raging Bull

April 27, 2011

The hits just keep coming. And as long as they do, I’ll have something to blog about. Last week the USA Today posted: Study: Alcohol-energy drink combo riskier than booze alone. This was a study done by scientists! REALLY!?! One scientist couldn’t handle this one? A team was needed? They tested 56 students between the [...]

Much ado about Nothing

April 26, 2011

Here is a new post from my friend, Dorry. She writes about the difference between being busy and effective. She also quotes 3 heavy-hitters along the way. Here’s Dorry! It’s finals time.

I’m Waiting For My Senator

April 20, 2011

Thank you Senator Charles E. Schumer. Thank you for fighting the good fight. The necessary fight. There was an article on April 11th in The Buffalo News by Susan Schulman: Schumer taking aim at painkiller abuse. And I say Ready Aim Fire!
