(Eastwood) DESCRIPTION:The Lansing Comfort Bear Project was begun by a Lansng resident whose husband works in the Lansing Police Department. When officers encounter children in the course of investigations\, they give them comfort bears to help ease what is often a difficult situation. Join us for a knit-in and learn how to easily knit bears for donation. Rae's Yarn Boutique has donated bear kits -- including the pattern\, yarn and needles - for us to distribute to the first 50 knitters who arrive. Knitters should bring size 6 knitting needles and washable wool\, cotton or acrylic yarns for ease of washability. For more information on the Lansing Comfort Bear Project\, email lansingcomfortbear@gmail.com.

Unlike other popular books about human evil\, Evil Genes goes far beyond explaining psychopathic behavior using old-fashioned psychological theories or religious dogma. Instead\, the book centers on what neuroscience and genetics are revealing about not only psychopathy\, but also the more subtly devious and malevolent behavior of seemingly ordinary people.

Join us for a night of great women's fiction and our traditional grab-bag book drawing!

In Grand Illusion\, she gives us a witty\, thoughtful critique of the American electoral system\, as well as a powerful argument for opening up the contest as if people and their daily lives mattered.
Looking beyond the Nader story to campains waged by challengers John Anderson\, Ross Perot\, Pat Buchanan\, and others\, Amato shows how limiting ourselves to two candidates deprives our country of a robust political life\, strips would-be contenders of their free speech and association rights\, and cheats voters out of meaningful political choices.

Since May 2003\, she has shed 530 of them and has kempt it off for five years. She didn't diet\, take pills or have pre-made meals delivered to her. There was no fitness trainer nor did she land herself on a reality competition. She did it all with the click of a mouse.
Because of her weight\, Nancy had been homebound for over a dozen years. Imagine being imprisoned in your own home - not noticing changes in your neighborhood or even changes in the world. Everything she did\, from sleeping to using bathroom\, was a life-threatening challenge. One day\, her sister bought her a computer. A techno-phobe\, Nancy ignored it for months\, until finally boredom and curiosity got the best of her. And there\, in a chat room\, she found the friendliness and human interaction she had been missing for so long.
A moving tale of losing your sense of self and then rediscovering it in the most unlikely of places\, Nancy's story will bring you tears of grief\, laughter and joy. Don't miss this inspiring event!

Join LCC professors for an animated discussion of the important science issues of the day! This month\;s topic is Creatures of Crime\: The Role of Insects in Crime Scene Investigations\, presented by Forensic Entomologist and MSU Professor Richard Merritt. Medicolegal forensic entomology deals with insect involvement in events surrounding felonies -- usually violent crimes such as murder\, suicide and rape\, but also involving cases of extreme neglect and abuse. Because insects and other arthropods have predictable life histories\, habitats\, known distributions\, and developmental rates\, they can provide important information about when\, where and even how a particular crime occurred. Merritt will show some of the major insects involved in crime scene investigations\, explain how to determine the PMI (the time between death and corpse discovery\, which is referred to as the postmortem interval)\, and discuss some major criminal cases he has been involved with to assess the role of forensically important insects.
