Ethics
- Distinctions between good and evil in the world, between right and wrong human actions, and between virtuous and nonvirtuous characteristics of people.
From Sheldon Mopes who has a fetish for them, to Jesse James Hollywood for whom they present no distraction, to everyone else on this luscious page muddling around in the middle, the Ethics continuum provides the shades of gray conversation. “Not black and white. Right. and. wrong!” Following are excellent illustrations of people deciding what their ethics are, and how (or if?) to apply them.

Libra, INTP, English Major, 
Back from a seriously scary health relapse in mid-October and returning to action. Kudos to my patient friends and colleagues, you're the best. New programs and more unrolling this year, here's to 2012!
