Washington, DC, USA. "In a time to come, people born HBS shall shake the conscience of our nation. During the Pride season, let us take joy in who we are and embrace the responsibilities imposed on us by that knowledge." [1] We said something like that in our first Pride editorial: the statement holds true. [2]
We are still here in the Washington, D.C. area, on the eve of another Capital Pride, and continue to consider Pride from an American perspective. After all, the search for ways to perfect our liberties, and dissatisfaction when we fail, animates much of our American history.
TS-Si has always been committed to equal rights for all before just laws enacted for all: our position applies without regard to the views or social station of others. We support the inherent rights and dignity of disenfranchised people without regard to race, class, gender, sex, ethnicity, sexual orientation, transgender presentation, and other distinctions [3].
There is much to be done to fully secure our rights. All of us, HBS or not, live within a society that routinely misplaces just priorities, only to find them again in glorious moments of resolve and triumph.
Whether it be the liberation of black citizens from the evil done by slavery and its consequences, battling Hitler and assorted Lords of War, sealing the compact of equality between the sexes, improving the lot of those less fortunate in an economically unbalanced society, or the many other great works in progress, Americans eventually come round to their core responsibilities.
What makes it work in the end is a culture that rests on a bedrock of fairness and a respect for facts. We go wrong when we allow personal self-indulgence to become the basis for public policy. The necessary

Washington, DC, USA. Holding true to the true meaning of Memorial Day is painfully easy for some and easily difficult for many others. Our nation most usually divides over our wars, slowly unifies in our respect for the dead, then far too often merely forgets until current events jar us away from our barbeques. It doesn’t matter whether you agree with any particular war or not. Every one of us should respect the sacrifice made by our military men and women who die in service.
Words often fail those who stood aside from the actual horrors of combat as they stop to ponder the sacrifices of individual combatants known and unknown.
By many accounts, liberated slaves and white abolitionists first observed what |

Springfield, VA, USA. We at TS-Si are pleased to congratulate a new publication, Cases Journal, for its entry into the family of serious scientific and medical publications.
Case study research represents an important opportunity for HBS inquiry, with benefits that extend to the entire population. Theoretical propositions that can be tested and confirmed, or found to be wrong based on the actual data instead of supposition.
However, there has been little meaningful investigation into HBS, with efforts largely confined to particularly undisciplined versions of social science research. The full array of scientific tools lay unappreciated and unused, with scant attention and funding for hard data collecti

Metro DC community and Mautner host memorials
Washington, DC, USA. Cheryl Ann Spector delivered far more than she ever promised. Ms. Spector worked ceaselessly to secure equal rights, to the great benefit of anyone who values a just and civil society.
While her work had immediate benefit to our neighbors who are gay, lesbian, bisexual, transsexual, and transgendered, she was loved for her personal qualities and over a generation of dedicated community service.
We at TS-Si were privileged to know and work with Cheryl, experiencing her special charm and resolve at first hand. The world lost a great friend when she died on the morning of 4 September 2007 after a protracted battle with Acute Myelogenous Le |

Do not sacrifice HBS/TS citizens to arbitrary formulas
Springfield, VA, USA. The American Labor Day is rooted in the value and dignity of work. It presents us with an opportunity to reflect on great advances and notable failures, while presenting challenges to ensure that all of our citizens have an equal opportunity to share in the cultivation and spread of prosperity.
The American political argument centers on how to ensure timely, full, and equal participation without inhibiting economic expansion.
Notable shortfalls remain: social conventions prevent portions of our citizenry from full participation. For instance, men and women born with HBS/TS must transition into society with a full awareness

Robot Violinist. A robot plays Pomp and Circumstance on the violin. The robot used its mechanical fingers to push the strings and bowed with its other arm.
The 152 cm (five foot) performer can perform a variety of tasks with its hands and arms, each of which has 17 joints.
Using precise control and coordination to achieve human-like agility, the robot could also be used to assist with domestic duties or nursing and medical care.
