This Is rota/ion symmetry For this example, I used the letter R , but any obIect could have been

used And In the rotation, the object, in this example, the lener R , Is turned around a center In this case,

violence Over time a spiril of solidarity aod an attachmenllO a local territory kiod of forms What's most interesting, besides the long history of gangs in the United States, the Interesting part ifs the fact that not much has changed over the years And, on yes, gang behavior seems pretty slmllar even across cultures

That Is Interesting

Or Jackson, may I go next? I have just a brief comment that seems to fit in here

Please,

gangs actually form In play groups where children of a very young age I usual games like hide-and-seek or klckbaIl, and progress as they get oldSf to playing craps or engaging In petty !hell on the street Now , back to Moore, Bill?

Right Well , , What about Moore's definition of a gang? That relates to ~~,", ,,!,,,,,,,-,,,,,,~

see 'MIat I have that ~~'!!o

",,"

as participating in a crime, either stealing something and bringing it back to the gang, or , , Of elf8n kJlllng someone in an Initiation

Dr Jackson, IloolIed up the definitions of gang members by police departments and law enforcement agencies

011, greal.lel's hear II

Okay Well, aCCOl"dlng to the California Youth Gang Task Force, lor example, a gang member will be recogrU:abIe because of gang-related tattoos clothing and paraphema· lia like SC8fV8S and hats thalldentily a particul8f 98ng and, sometimes these are called the colors, so that allows othef people 10 confirm that the people with the colors on that

they have a right 1 0 be on the gang's tun And , to 1~1ow up on Tracy's comments about the history 01 gangs, it looks like these criteria have been in place for a long, long ~me Good job So far, what I'm hearing though, what I'm hearing refers to gang membership

in general So now let's talk &bout the ages a/gang members Typically, who belongs

to a gang?

Well, this was an eya-opener There seem to be • or maybe not , but al C8tegor1es of gang I

they start writing ijral1it1 on or their notebooks, and they look up 10 the gang memb&~ who are about 14-20 So the little kids are 'Peewefl;" and the

teenagers are called "Gang Bangers.' But the members who are 20-25 years old They're the "Hardcofes," and most of the gangs that I read about didn~ have very many members over 25 years old So I would say that, In general, gang membership Is lor

young men

Dr Jackson: Thanks loryour assessment 01 membership by age And I would certainly agree with you

But what about females? Did anyone find any research on their role in gang activity?

imagined thai gang activity was always, , , always criminal activity, But, uh, according

to a sludy by • , • II was James Lasley , , • he looked at gangs In Los Angeles abouIlen years ago , , and anyway, he round that they &pent a lot of time hanging out, listening

to musiC, drinking beef, and /Ust partying with their glrtlriends And he made another good point Since they don~ have spending money, to go places ~ka tha movies or bali games , the neighborhood Is thalr, ,entertainment

not really lor financial gain?

~ , or course , there ara Instances 01 crimes for revenge or honor to maintain the reputation 0 1 the gang , bot a lot oi the time, crimes simply occur while gang membef5 are looking lor something to do ,

How does the prolessor organize the discussion?

By definlng gang activity, using inlormation from articles

What was surprising about Thrasher's study?

TI'Ie lact Ihat gang activity haS oeen prevalenl for $0 long

According to the study by Moore, what causes gang activity?

Normalleellngs 01 Insecurity in teen

Usten again to part oItha discussion and then answer tha following question

"And one other Ihing, Moore emphasized that the gang had to define Itsel1as a gang, you know, with some kind 01 criteria lor membership that would be recognl1:ed by all 01

"Such as?"

Why does the prolassor say this:

"Such as?"

To encourage the student to give an example

Professor Blake:

Wen, Jim, lhe choice isn' that clear, Um, not at all There are a lot of scienllsts in between, and by thai

I mean lhat they see the lheory 01 everything In a lTlOfe Nmited way, They Ihlnk that string theory, and understand thai Siring theory is inCorporated Into the theory 01 everything , , • um, that string theory can eKplaln all of the properties 01 the forces that cause the particles to interact and Influence each other Yes, Ellen, Did yoo have a commenl?

Ellen :

Well, a questlon, feally Wouldn' it be In.Ie that il you understand everything about the , , I think yoo called it the fundamental characteristics 01 the universe so II you understand that, don' yoo under-stand everything?

Jim:

Walt a minute So that would mean that we know ~ all flaoN and there Isn' anything else to discover, right? Because uh, everything Is physics _ _ everything Is Just a reaction between vibrating slrings

Ellen:

I see your polnt, but you could, you might look at it as a , as a , starting place 1, uh, to build our knowledge, Dr , Blake, you said that i1'd be a structura, didn' you? So we'd have to linin a lot of i nfor-mation but , , • we'd have e s\ruclure to start with In my math elliS! we wera talking alloul string theory because soma 01 the recant advances In mathemallcs have been possible because 01 string theory

Professor Blake:

True enough And, string theory isn' finished by any maans It's evolved from the beginning when we first started to think about it and, uh, the aally models that included both open slrings and the closed strings that I just described to you- the ones that look lika a thin rubber banet And !here's a lot 01 discussion allout vibration or rather variOus types 01 vibration, Then there's the possibility 01

branes-b-r-a-n-e-s-whlc:h are kind 01 like closed strings with a membrane over them,

Jim:

But all of this Is theoretical, right? Because we don' havelhe technology 10 obselYe strings-closed or open- and we certainly can' verily that thera are branes out !here

E l len :

Sure, But there are some very complex and , , and , , , persuasive, uh, mathematicallormulas, and they're presented In support 01 the theorieS It Isn' like someone's jusl dreaming this up without caJcula

-"""

Jim:

But I don' see why we should accept calculations when some of those calculations require us to think beyond what we can obselYe

Professor Blake:

And many physicists would agree with you, Jim Siring theory's unverified Richard Feynman wrote 8 very interesting book, The Character 01 Physical Law , and to Feynman, to him, the test ot any scienlific

theory has to be whether the coosequences agree with the measurements we take in e~periments , 01 course, that assumes that the experiment was performed correctly and, uh, that the calculetions were

done without error, but anyway, I think you see the point
