Fear as a force shaping human conduct and survival
Shaftsbury essay argues fear is universal and dual in nature, acting as a survival mechanism and a potential curse. It classifies fears into six types, from physical dangers to fear of death and fear itself, and suggests strategies to minimize fear by understanding, facing, and expressing it. It cites Epictetus and Roosevelt to underscore the need to confront fear rather than surrender to it.

Nixon tapes editorial: a national moral test for Congress
The editorial argues Nixon’s edited White House conversations on Watergate reveal a self incriminating, almost indecent disclosure. It questions the motives behind release, the partisan risks, and the core loyalty of lawmakers to the Constitution versus party. It stresses that Congress must decide if impeachment hinges on a criminal act or undermining constitutional duties.
