This is part 3 of the the recording of my invited Saint Anselm Lecture, given in 2008 at Saint Anselm College. Here is the abstract of the paper: One important divine attribute Saint Anselm examines and treats is that of simplicity. His treatment brings out some surprising features of simplicity itself which escape the frameworks of the logic of created being, providing us a fuller, albeit still very partial, understanding of the true nature of that attribute. A deep problem can then arise for the created human being in the course of such speculations and investigations: How can a complex, complicated, composite created being more closely approach a perfectly simple divine being? In both our thought and in our practice, it seems that our attempts to approach God simply introduce even more complexity into things. My paper addresses that problem. The first section of the paper presents five short Anselmian lessons about the divine attribute of simplicity. The second section then frames and explores the problem. The third and final section provides an Anselmian resolution to the problem.

This lecture is a talk given at the 5th Saint Anselm conference, sponsored by the Institute for Saint Anselm Studies at Saint Anselm College in April 2014. I discuss Anselm's views on marriage, conjugal love, sexual desire, activity, and pleasure. Anselm lives and writes just before a flowering of monastic writing upon marriage and conjugal love, and has only fragmentary discussions of these topics, but his broader moral theory -- as we can find it not only in his treatises, but also in his Letters, Prayers, the De Similitudinibus, and the Dicta Anselmi -- actually has much to tell us about these subjects Get Anselm's Works - https://amzn.to/2ZnZRcu

Host Dr. Joel Berg is joined by American Dental Association (ADA) President Dr. Richard Rosato. In this conversation, Dr. Rosato shares his journey from shifting gears from pediatric medicine to pediatric dentistry as a student and how his relationships have affected his participation in organized dentistry. Dr. Rosato shares his experience as a private practitioner and business owner, and how that mentality and passion influence the impact he hopes to have during his time as ADA President. In particular, Dr. Rosato speaks about the importance of practitioner and patient mental wellbeing. Guest Bio: Dr. Rosato is a native New Englander. He was born in Revere, MA, and raised in Danvers, MA. He moved to NH in 1986 to attend Saint Anselm College. After college, he attended Tufts University School of Dental Medicine and graduated in 1994.

US President Donald Trump said Tuesday the White House will have to examine the possibility of deporting Elon Musk, after the billionaire entrepreneurblasted the president's tax and spending bill.美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周二表示，在这位亿万富翁企业家抨击总统的税收和支出法案后，白宫将不得不研究驱逐埃隆·马斯克的可能性。Musk, who originally hails from South Africa and is now a US citizen, posted several posts of criticism over the weekend on social media aimed at Trump's "big, beautiful bill."马斯克最初来自南非，现在是美国公民，周末在社交媒体上发布了几篇针对特朗普“大而漂亮的法案”的批评帖子The tech titan lambasted the bill for what he said was adding to the US debt.这位科技巨头抨击该法案，称其增加了美国债务。Trump jabbed back on Tuesday, posting on social media that Musk, who is the CEO of electric vehicle company Tesla, was upset that the legislation eliminated tax credits for electric vehicles.周二，特朗普在社交媒体上回击称，电动汽车公司特斯拉的首席执行官马斯克对该立法取消了电动汽车的税收抵免感到不满。This is the latest in a row between the two billionaires, with the two in a tit-for-tat war of words.周二，特朗普在社交媒体上回击称，电动汽车公司特斯拉的首席执行官马斯克对该立法取消了电动汽车的税收抵免感到不满。Trump's sweeping bill, which passed the Senate on Tuesday, includes increased spending for defense, energy production and border security.特朗普周二在参议院通过的全面法案包括增加国防、能源生产和边境安全支出。Trump has implied that the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), the organization that Musk helped create in a bid to cut government costs, could be weaponized against Musk's companies.特朗普暗示，马斯克为削减政府成本而帮助创建的政府效率部（DOGE）可能会被用来对付马斯克的公司。"Elon may get more subsidy than any human being in history, by far," Trump posted on social media. "Perhaps we should have DOGE take a good, hard, look at this?"特朗普在社交媒体上发帖称：“到目前为止，埃隆可能会获得比历史上任何人都多的补贴。”“也许我们应该让狗狗好好地、认真地看看这个？”Trump has also threatened to get rid of government subsidies that provide benefits to Musk's companies.特朗普还威胁要取消为马斯克的公司提供福利的政府补贴。Musk vowed to punish Republican lawmakers who supported Trump's bill.马斯克发誓要惩罚支持特朗普法案的共和党议员。"We won't know for some time if Musk follows through on his threats against Republicans. That could take the form of funding primary challengers, helping run independent candidates in red states as campaigns, or something else," Christopher Galdieri, a political science professor at Saint Anselm College in the northeastern state of New Hampshire, told Xinhua.新罕布什尔州东北部圣安瑟伦学院的政治学教授克里斯托弗·加迪埃里告诉新华社：“在一段时间内，我们还不知道马斯克是否会兑现他对共和党人的威胁。这可能会采取资助初选挑战者、帮助在红色州竞选独立候选人或其他方式。”。Clay Ramsay, a researcher at the Center for International and Security Studies at the University of Maryland, told Xinhua that Musk's relationship with Trump went in several stages.马里兰大学国际与安全研究中心的研究员克莱·拉姆齐告诉新华社，马斯克与特朗普的关系分为几个阶段。"In the first stage, Musk was willing to spend something like 250 million (US dollars) on Trump's campaign, and Trump liked that," Ramsay said.拉姆齐说：“在第一阶段，马斯克愿意在特朗普的竞选活动上花费大约2.5亿美元，特朗普对此表示欢迎。”。"In the second stage, Musk was Trump's partner in creating DOGE, which functioned something like a fourth branch of government, finding ways to stop spending on items that had been passed by Congress and were required by law. In the third stage, the popular dislike of DOGE resulted in a collapse of Tesla car sales, something which Musk had not expected," he added.他补充道：“在第二阶段，马斯克是特朗普创建DOGE的合作伙伴，DOGE的功能类似于政府的第四个部门，寻找方法停止在国会通过的、法律要求的项目上的支出。在第三阶段，公众对DOGE的厌恶导致了特斯拉汽车销售的崩溃，这是马斯克没有预料到的。”。"In the fourth stage, Musk moved away from direct execution of DOGE's tasks, and as a businessman, found that his companies were in danger of losing valuable support from clean energy subsidies. This, plus his aversion to government debt, explains why he hates the BBB (big beautiful bill)," the researcher concluded.研究人员总结道：“在第四阶段，马斯克不再直接执行DOGE的任务，作为一名商人，他发现他的公司有失去清洁能源补贴的宝贵支持的危险。再加上他对政府债务的厌恶，解释了他为什么讨厌BBB（大美法案）。”。tax creditsn.免税额度collapsen.崩溃、塌陷

CNN will never be the same again after former President Donald Trump appeared on the network for a Town Hall Wednesday night. The show lasted over an hour and ended with the live audience of Republicans and undeclared voters, at Saint Anselm College in New Hampshire, cheering for Trump. And they weren't cheering so much for CNN interviewer Kaitlin Collins. Immediately after, CNN itself was even attacked by several public figures and establishment news outlets for even giving Trump a platform. So what took place? Well, it may have made Trump look just a bit too human. And for the well-crafted and ongoing attacks to dehumanize the former president, this could be a threat to the narratives. Also, border expert and war correspondent Michael Yon joins us from El Paso, TX, to talk the end of Title 42 and what it means for the border crisis. We'll discuss this story in this episode of Crossroads. ⭕️ Stay up-to-date with Josh with the Crossroads NEWSLETTER

Chris Leazier refers to himself as a basketball nomad. He grew up glued to Indiana University games back when Bobby Knight was patrolling the sidelines and winning more championships than he threw chairs. Though a good player, Chris decided in high school that he'd have a greater impact with a whistle around his neck. One of his first stops was Thetford Academy, where he coached Basketball Strong co-host Tim DiFrancesco (TD). After spending seven years as an assistant coach at Dartmouth College, Chris was at the helm of Saint Anselm College's women's basketball for two years. Then Bakersfield Jam head coach Will Voigt came calling and Chris entered the D-League, soon reuniting with TD as well. After several other college and high school coaching jobs, Will called Chris again and they teamed up to lead the Nigerian men's national team at the Rio Olympics. Soon after, Chris was back coaching high school basketball, and also served as the head of scouting and video for University of North Carolina women's coach Courtney Banghart, who had been his fellow assistant coach at Dartmouth. In the past few years, Chris has applied all his coaching expertise at Hudl, where he currently serves as market lead for elite basketball & D1 colleges. In this episode, Chris riffs on:How he developed more compassion as a coach, while still maintaining a standard of excellenceWhy it's important to enjoy and learn from every experience What coaching and life lesson transferred from coaching in the Olympics, college, and high school basketballWhich coach was the best servant leader he has ever seenWhat makes Courtney Banghart such a successful coachKeep up with Chris on his Twitter feed.

Have you ever wondered how a college admissions counselor personally approaches each student's application? In this episode, my friend Matt Provost, an Admissions Counselor for Saint Anselm College in Manchester, New Hampshire, joins us to share his perspective on what he looks for when evaluating a potential student. From their admissions essay to their interactions at college fairs and on campus tours, he gives the full picture of everything that ultimately goes into the admissions decision.We are opening up a few spots for our Junior Monthly Retainer coaching on September 1st! This is our most hands-on service for high school juniors, and spots are limited, so visit http://ncewc.com/ to learn more and book a free consultation!Some key takeaways from my conversation with Matt are:College admissions counselors are looking at the whole student and all their strengths. They are ultimately wanting to answer the question “Will this student succeed and thrive at this school?” If yes, awesome! But if it's not a good fit, that's okay! There are more options out there.When it comes to your admissions essay, counselors are looking first and foremost at your writing skills. Next is how compelling and fun it is to read your essay. If you have a great story to share, it will really make your essay stand out.How much personal interest you show in a school means a lot to admissions counselors. If you connect 1:1 with a counselor at a college fair, and then make a point to say hello to them on a college visit, you start to make a strong impression of demonstrated interest in the school.The Admissions Club Podcast is your one-stop shop for all things college admissions, complete with a nostalgic 80s playlist and Gen X vibes.

While their experience is valuable, I thought it would be refreshing to hear from an ESL teacher who is in the beginning stages of her career.

She shares her own journey to finding ESL teaching and the reasons she is so passionate about this career. Kennedy is from Massachusetts and is currently a senior at Saint Anselm College in Manchester, NH. She will be graduating with a major in Spanish and a minor in ESOL education, with certification to teach ELL students in grades 9-12 in Massachusetts. She is passionate about the Spanish language, traveling, and writing music (she's also a singer!). Extroverted, compassionate and a keen listener, Kennedy will always try to understand and support another person, and I have seen that in action so many times! She is eager to get even more experience working with newcomers so she can better serve them and can't wait to continue her career working with English Learners and newcomers.Here is what you will hear about ESL Teaching:What teachers of English Learners teach, besides the languageWhy ESL teaching is such a rewarding careerA few things that may surprise you about teaching English Learners and new comers Advice for new ESL teachers and student teachersTips and strategies for all teachers with English Learners in their classEssential ideas for vocabulary instruction to support your ESL students and newcomersResourcesMentioned in the Episode:Follow Kennedy on InstagramFollow Kennedy on FacebookThe ESL Teaching Roadmap – membership community for middle and high school ESL/ELL teachers.

New Hampshire artist, Sylvia Nicolas, joins us today to bring her perspective on what it's like to grow up into a world heavily influenced by the arts. As a fourth generation artist, she has worked all around the world with her immigrant roots in Holland, then moving to Paris, New York and of course New Hampshire. Her works which edify the campus of Saint Anselm College and Saint Anselm Abbey include mosaics, stain glass and her well-known statues of Saint Anselm, Saint Benedict and the Grotto Madonna. These familiar manifestations of her creative genius are just a portion of Sylvia's life's work. Her artistic creations are preceded by an impressive amount of research and analysis which makes her finished work an honest and visionary representation of her subjects. Her dedication to the intellectual life and the way the humanities animate her art make for a lively and engaging conversation with this artist who has been named “a living treasure” of the state of New Hampshire.

As the impeachment trial ends, Lilly Goren and Susan Liebell explore the future of the GOP with two media-savvy political scientists. Dr. Jonathan Bernstein is familiar to many as the Bloomberg Opinion columnist covering politics and policy -- also doing Bloomberg television and radio. He taught political science at the University of Texas at San Antonio and DePauw University and his most recent book is The Making of the Presidential Candidates (Roman & Littlefield 2020 -- Lilly interviewed him and his co-editor, Casey Dominguez, for the New Books in Political Science).

The conversation dives into Trump's second impeachment and the role of the GOP in both the House and the Senate around this most recent impeachment and trial. Galdieri and Bernstein also discuss the presidential nominating process over the past few decades, focusing on more recent nomination cycles and how these processes, and the functioning of both the Democratic and Republican parties, shape the outcomes and the winners.
