The Science and Politics of Pandemics
<p>Amid the present COVID-19 pandemic, it is useful and important to explore how pandemics provide an opportunity to address a variety of compelling scientific and political questions. This special two-week forum, led jointly by Ben Peterson Professor of Chemistry Maria Dean and Professor of Political Science Lynda Barrow, will examine pandemics past and present from the vantage points of a biochemist and a political scientist. From the 14th-century plague in Europe to the Ebola outbreaks of the early 21st century to the current COVID-19 moment, epidemics and pandemics offer a unique opportunity to consider a wide variety of significant scientific and political issues that leaders, countries and the international community face during moments of crisis. In the first week’s session, the presenters will define what constitutes a pandemic, which organisms and conditions make pandemics possible and why pandemics are a political as well as a scientific issue. The second session will discuss specific pandemics, examining in each case the science of the spread and containment as well as the political and public health responses.</p> 2021-08-04 11:30:00 -0500

Men Exploring Faith at Prairiewoods
<p>Behavioral scientists and spiritual guides have noted a major transformation in the life direction of many men as we mature. It may happen gradually or abruptly, as early as our 20s or in our 50s or 60s. Some men never make this shift, described as a change from goal drivenness to receptivity, from ego to wisdom. The transition can start from the inside (Why am I doing what I’m doing?) or the outside (from a loss or threat), and it may seem disruptive while on the way to being life-enhancing. Join with a small group of reflective men at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) in honest conversation about these changes. This group meets the second and fourth Thursdays of each month and is facilitated by Jeff Schumacher. A free-will offering is accepted, and registration is not necessary. For more information, contact Prairiewoods at www.Prairiewoods.org or 319-395-6700.</p> 2021-08-09 17:30:00 -0500

Stories from the Heart: Reimagining Home
<p dir="ltr"><strong>What does<em> home </em>mean to you?</strong> <a href="https://familypromiseoflinncounty.org/events/stories-from-the-heart/">Gather with us</a> for a special night of storytelling where featured local speakers will share different perspectives on the importance of home, their personal experiences, and what home means to them.</p><p dir="ltr">Significant life events prompt almost everyone to rethink and reimagine home. Living in the time of COVID-19 and the derecho, home has taken on a different meaning. For some, home is where one works, learns, or creates. For many, home has been a place of quarantine. And because of a natural disaster, home has even taken on a new shape, or become somewhere else for some. </p><p dir="ltr">From these experiences, how can we remember what is good about home? What makes home for each of us, and how can we find beauty and joy when home has been something so different? How can we think about home when many have lost theirs, or are in danger of being without one?</p><p>This fall, our storytellers will try to answer these questions in unique ways, while sharing their gifts to help families in need.</p><p>Tickets to the fundraiser benefit <strong>Family Promise of Linn County</strong> and includes entrance to the event, dinner, craft beer and wine, and can be purchased at <a href="http://www.familypromiseoflinncounty.org/events/stories-from-the-heart">www.familypromiseoflinncounty.org/events/stories-from-the-heart</a></p>
