defense system that has evolved to protect animals from invading pathogenic microorganisms and ancer. It is able to generate an enormous variety of cells and molecules capable of specifically recognizing and eliminat ing an apparently limitless variety of foreign invaders. These cells and molecules act together in a dynamic network whose omplexity rivals that of the nervous system. Functionally, an immune response can be divided into two related activities--recognition and response. Immune

October 22, 2001 Personal IdentityⅢ . Review soul criterion and body criterion Soul criterion: x is the same person as y iff and y have the same soul. Problems: i)There is no way to establish body-soul correlations; and no way to establish personality correlations. So soul criterion doesn't make sense of our practices of recognizing and identifying people ii)We have no special access to souls, so even in our own case we can't be sure it's the same soul \inside\ us whenever we are conscious. ii) The problem of identity is \pushed back\: what is it for person-stage x to have the same soul as person-stage y? What makes for sameness of souls? Body criterion: x is the same person as y iff x and y have the same living human body

Table manners and Customs Introductory Remarks In different parts of the world, there are different table manners and customs. People in the East eat in different ways from those in the West. Even among western countries there are differences between table manners. And what's more, in one country, table manners have not al ways been the same and changed with time

then there exists AE R\ such that (Kuhn-Tucker condition) G(s') =0 and 1. Lagrange Method for Constrained Optimization FOC: D.L(,\)=0. The following classical theorem is from Takayama(1993, p.114). Theorem A-4 (Sufficieney). Let f and, i= ,..m, be quasi-concave, where Theorem A-1. (Lagrange). For f: and G\\, consider the following G=(.8 ) Let r' satisfy the Kuhn-Tucker condition and the FOC for (A.2). Then, x' problem is a global maximum point if max f() (1)Df(x') =0, and f is locally twice continuously differentiable,or
