Macrophage activation syndrome (MAS) is an acute episode of overwhelming inflammation characterized by activation and expansion of T lymphocytes and hemophagocytic macrophages. In rheumatology, it occurs most frequently in patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) and systemic lupus erythematosus. The main clinical manifestations include cytopenias, liver dysfunction, coagulopathy resembling disseminated intravascular coagulation, and extreme hyperferritinemia. Clinically and pathologically, MAS bears strong similarity to hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), and some authors prefer the term secondary HLH to describe it. Central to its pathogenesis is a cytokine storm, with markedly increased levels of numerous proinflammatory cytokines including IL-1, IL-6, IL-18, TNFα, and IFNγ. Although there is evidence that IFNγ may play a central role in the pathogenesis of MAS, the role of other cytokines is still not clear. There are several reports of SJIA-associated MAS dramatically benefiting from anakinra, a recombinant IL-1 receptor antagonist, but the utility of other biologics in MAS is not clear. The mainstay of treatment remains corticosteroids; other medications, including cyclosporine, are used in patients who fail to respond.

"Cytokine storm" and the development of macrophage activation syndrome (MAS). MAS can develop in the setting of high systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) disease activity, which is associated with increased levels of cytokines including IL-1, IL-6, IL-18, and TNFα. MAS can also be triggered by viral infections, wherein pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) are recognized by toll-like receptors (TLRs) and trigger further secretion of inflammatory cytokines. The proinflammatory environment including elevated IL-6 can enhance signaling through TLRs. Infection also leads to activation and proliferation of CD8+ T cells and NK cells, including secretion of IFNγ. Defects in the cytolytic activity of these lymphocytes also contribute to hyperinflammation. Increased IL-18 levels further drive IFNγ production by these activated lymphocytes. This surge in IFNγ leads to activation of macrophages that acquire a proinflammatory phenotype and generate high levels of chemokines and cytokines. These activated macrophages, along with CD8+ T cells, traffic to tissue including bone marrow and liver and lead to the cytopenias, liver dysfunction, and coagulopathy associated with MAS.

I am an ecosystems ecologist/biogeochemist, whose principal research focus is on high latitude ecosystems and environmental change.
I graduated in 1984 with a BSc Combined Honours in Biology and Geography from the University of Exeter, and completed a PhD in 1988 at Lancaster University and the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology on the effects of air pollutants on forest soils. After a post-doctoral term at Lancaster University, continuing with air pollution research for the EU, my career path took me to the Arctic (in 1991), where I have continued to research ever since. My first academic position, however, was back at Exeter as Lecturer in Ecology, where I stood-in for Professor Jo Anderson while Jo was seconded to Rothamsted International. Since then I have held appointments at Royal Holloway, University of London (Lecturer in Environmental Geography; 1996 – 1997), the University of Uppsala, Sweden (Associate Professor, then Docent, and finally Professor in Physical Geography; 1997 – 2004), and then back to the UK as Reader, then Professor of Ecosystems Ecology (2004-2009) at the University of Stirling, and Professor in Physical Geography (2012-2013), University of Sheffield, and Chair in Ecosystem Science at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh (2013-2017). I am now back in Stirling, as Professor of Ecosystem Science.
The International Arctic Science Committee (IASC; https://iasc.info/) is a non-governmental, international scientific organization. The Founding Articles committed IASC to pursue a mission of encouraging and facilitating cooperation in all aspects of Arctic research, in all countries engaged in Arctic research and in all areas of the Arctic region. Overall, IASC promotes and supports leading-edge multi-disciplinary research in order to foster a greater scientific understanding of the Arctic region and its role in the Earth system. The scientific scope of the Terrestrial Working Group (https://iasc.info/working-groups/terrestrial) includes scientific research on arctic terrestrial and freshwater environments, landscapes and biota, and their responses to, and interactions with, other components of the Earth system. The remit encompasses the dynamics of the Arctic system; past, present and future.
Phil has worked in the Arctic/sub-Arctic since 1993. He is passionate about 'The North', and attributes his love of cold, snowy and windswept places to his maternal heritage (from Sutherland, in the north of Scotland), going on expedition to North Iceland as an undergrad (back in 1983), reading Jack London novels, and possibly also to the lyrics of a Led Zeppelin song!
At core, Phil is a process ecologist/biogeochemist, but is particularly keen to see process studies placed into Earth System context. Research highlights have been the publication of three International Tundra Experiment (ITEX) meta-analysis papers (in Ecological Monographs, PNAS and Ecology Letters), each of which is a citation classic. Phil and colleagues' more recent work on soil processes and global change has been published in Nature and Nature Climate Change. This research hints at some looming and unwelcome 'surprises' in the global greenhouse, and challenges the validity of some of the basic logic underpinning key models of the global carbon cycle and climate system.

Il Civitan International, con sede a Birmingham, in Alabama, è un'organizzazione internazionale di service club a favore della comunità fondata nel 1917.

L'organizzazione mira a "costruire buoni cittadini", fornendo una organizzazione di volontariato basata su club dedicati a servire le esigenze individuali e della comunità con particolare attenzione per l'assistenza di persone con "disabilità dello sviluppo".

Storia

Nel 1917, un gruppo di uomini d'affari di Birmingham, in Alabama, guidati da Courtney Shropshire, un medico locale, fondarono un club indipendente, al servizio della comunità, denominato Civitan, nome derivato dalla parola latina "cittadinanza".
Gli Stati Uniti entrarono in guerra appena un mese dopo che il club fu formato. Con tutta l'attenzione pubblica focalizzata sulla guerra, Civitan rimase un'organizzazione locale.
Shropshire aveva invece immaginato una organizzazione internazionale di club Civitan dedicata a servire l'intera umanità e sulla base di questa idea fondò nel 1920 l'Associazione Internazionale dei Club Civitan. Negli anni immediatamente successivi la prima guerra mondiale, l'organizzazione ha visto una rapida crescita. Dal giugno 1922 al secondo convegno internazionale, il Civitan raggiunse il numero di 115 club e di oltre 3.300 Civitans in tutti gli Stati Uniti.
In questo periodo i Club di servizio come il Civitan erano estremamente popolari, in quanto promuovevano lo spirito di ottimismo che ha caratterizzato gran parte dei ruggenti anni Venti.
I club di servizio subirono però un forte calo in termini di adesioni e raccolta fondi durante la Grande Depressione. I Civitan però perseverarono e riuscirono, anche grazie alla cooperazione con il Rotary ed i Lions Club a superare questo periodo.
Subito dopo la seconda guerra mondiale si assistette ad un'altra spinta alla crescita, triplicando di dimensioni tra 1946 e 1956, il Civitan divenne il sesto più grande club di servizio negli Stati Uniti.

Progetti di Service

Il Civitan International lascia ai club la facoltà di operare in modo indipendente, lasciando loro la libertà di partecipare a qualsiasi service che ritengono opportuno.

Focus sulla disabilità dello sviluppo

Mentre i singoli club sono liberi di perseguire i propri progetti, il Civitan International è focalizzato sul servizio ai disabili mentali. Questa enfasi è stata adottata nel 1956, quando il Civitan fu tra i primi a fornire una formazione specifica per gli insegnanti di bambini disabili mentali.
Civitan continua a privilegiare l'aiuto alle persone con disabilità dello sviluppo. Nel 1990, il Civitan Research Center è stato fondato nel campus della University of Alabama a Birmingham con una donazione di 20 milioni di dollari. Il Civitan Research Center è stata la prima istituzione del genere negli Stati Uniti ad essere focalizzata esclusivamente sulla ricerca di disabilità dello sviluppo. All'interno della struttura operano ricercatori provenienti da diverse parti del mondo ed in particolare, per quanto riguarda i paesi europei, da Germania, Belgio e Croazia.

Junior Civitan International

Junior Civitan International è uno dei programmi più rodati e di maggior successo di Civitan. Gli studenti di età compresa tra 13 e 18 anni possono iscriversi ad un club Junior Civitan nella loro scuola o nella loro comunità. Ogni Junior Civitan club è sponsorizzato da un club Senior Civitan e promuove la leadership degli studenti, sviluppo della leadership e servizio alla comunità.

Premio "Cittadinanza Mondiale"

Dwight Eisenhower riceve il Premio "Cittadinanza Mondiale" il 9 giugno 1966. Civitan ha assegnato il Premio Cittadinanza Mondiale a coloro "che hanno dato un contributo significativo al genere umano". I destinatari del premio sono stati: Winston Churchill; Dwight D. Eisenhower; Wernher von Braun; Thor Heyerdahl; Eunice Kennedy Shriver.

Progetto Candy Box
Il Progetto Civitan Candy Box, uno dei programmi Civitan di raccolta fondi più antichi e di maggior successo, ha raccolto 50 milioni di dollari dalla sua nascita nel 1976. I volontari raccolgono i soldi, mantenendoli per alcuni progetti di servizio del club, e inviando il resto a Civitan International per i suoi progetti di beneficenza.

Attività internazionali
L'organizzazione comprende 50.000 membri (denominati Civitans) in quasi 1.000 club di tutto il mondo.

Playboy Enterprises, Inc. v. Frena, 839 F.Supp. 1552 (1993) was a copyright infringement case decided by the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, holding that the unauthorized online distribution of copied photographs was copyright infringement; and that removing a magazine's trademark from copied images was trademark infringement.

Facts
Defendant George Frena operated an early subscription-based online bulletin board service, Techs Warehouse BBS. Photographs copyrighted by plaintiff Playboy Entertainment, Inc. ("PEI") were scanned from paper copies of Playboy magazine by Frena and uploaded onto Techs Warehouse BBS without permission. Subscribers to the BBS were allowed to view and download high-quality computerized versions of the images and store the files on their home computers. Frena provided 170 images in this fashion.

Frena claimed to never have uploaded any of PEI's photographs onto the BBS and that his subscribers uploaded the photographs themselves. Frena stated that as soon as he was served with a summons and made aware of the matter, he removed the photographs and had since that time monitored the BBS to prevent additional PEI-owned photographs from being uploaded.

Opinion of the court
PEI alleged that Frena was liable for copyright infringement when the subscribers to his BBS downloaded and distributed unauthorized copies of PEI's copyrighted photographs. PEI also alleged that Frena had removed logos including "Playboy" and "Playmate" from the photos that had been copied from Playboy magazine, which constituted trademark infringement.

The Court held that PEI owned the copyrights to the photographs in question, because they were originally published in Playboy magazine for which PEI was the undisputed copyright owner. PEI's possession of the necessary copyright certificate constituted prima facie evidence in favor of the company. Also, because the subscribers to the BBS made unauthorized copies of the images via downloading and distributed them elsewhere on the Internet, Frena was found liable for contributory infringement because he produced the original scanned copies himself.

In another copyright-related argument, PEI claimed that Frena had infringed on its display rights, which under copyright law allow the owner to authorize where and how copyrighted works are displayed, and PEI had not authorized display of the images at Frena's BBS service. This argument was also found convincing by the court.

Further, the court found that by removing the Playboy-oriented logos from the scanned images and replacing them with information about his BBS service, Frena had committed trademark infringement under the Lanham Act, because this act was likely to cause confusion among users as to the true origin of the images.

Impact
Playboy Enterprises, Inc. v. Frena has been frequently cited as an important early precedent in the emerging law of copyright on the Internet, particularly given the technological ease with which unauthorized copies of images can be reproduced and distributed online. The court ruling is also often cited as an influence on the passage of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act five years later, as that law attempted to enact penalties for web-based services that contribute to copyright infringement committed by their users. The ruling is also sometimes cited as an early precedent for online trademark infringement disputes.

At the first annual "Make A Wish" tournament on Lake Erie, Gregg Seal and I weighed these two smallies for 12.38 pounds. One of them was a fish I caught and weighed 6.66 pounds. It was the 4th largest fish caught that day, and they only paid 3 lunkers. Those other fish all weighed over 7 pounds.


Serious Business is not a funny album. More accurately, playing this album will not induce the brand of gut-busting, teary-eyed revelry that an episode of Chappelle�s Show or a YouTube clip of Anna Karkowska�s vibrato will. It is funny like the idea of a Rothko turning the stomachs of well-heeled gluttons at the Four Seasons is funny, or how anything Andy Kaufman ever suited up for is funny. It might be a little uncomfortable, rings clear in its truth, and sometimes reveals itself gradually.
Serious Business comprises four different perspectives on humor through the lens of classical music � a flavor of music that could use a little more funny, in general. You, dear listener, won�t be popping in this CD in the way you would a Louis C.K. special. This is an album about what makes something funny, and more importantly, a collection of music we think is brilliant, and clever, and unequivocally worth entering the cave for.
Since its inception, the Spektral Quartet has sought out the discourse between the great works of the traditional canon and those written this decade, this year, or this week. Creating connections across centuries, the group further invites its listeners in with charismatic deliveries, interactive concert formats, an up-close atmosphere, and bold, inquisitive programming.
The ensemble is regarded for its forward-thinking endeavors including the Mobile Miniatures project, which rallied more than forty composers from across the US including David Lang, Augusta Read Thomas, Nico Muhly and Shulamit Ran to write ringtone-length pieces for download to mobile devices. In addition to finding vehicles for bringing classical music into everyday life, the Spektral Quartet prioritizes immersion and inclusivity and delivers the majority of its Chicago concerts in vibrant, unconventional venues.
The Spektral Quartet proudly serves as ensemble-in-residence at the University of Chicago's Department of Music.

If "possibilities are endless," where and how will we find them? And when should we stop looking?
I wonder, because lately it feels as if too many of us stop looking for possibilities. We've settled for what is and handed over the search of what could be to the serious-minded. And we are now patiently waiting for our gifts of the future to arrive — conveniently prepackaged in normal, protectively wrapped with conventions, and time-date stamped for practicality.
Maybe we all need to put on our adventure suits back on. The ones we loved as kids.
Maybe it's time we stopped trying to fit in and focus more on testing limits and embracing ridiculous as we search for possibilities among the obscure, the unconventional and the impractical?
And maybe, just maybe, our adventure suits and our search for possibilities needs to be a significant part of our daily life — all our life. Embracing ridiculous could be a precious legacy we hand over to the next generation as they meet their life challenges.
And maybe, too, we would be much happier if our lives felt more like the glorious adventure full of possibilities that it is.
THE REINVENTION OF NORMAL from Liam Saint-Pierre on Vimeo. Is searching for possibilities and embracing ridiculous part of your daily life? Do you have moments when you "Go straight off the wall"? Or do you like the comforts of "normal"?

I've been on Face Book off and on for 10 years now and have copy and pasted something six times. Sean Cleary posted this today; it's something I wish I'd written. I believe every, single word of it.
We are all walking contradictions of what "normal" looks like.
Let humanity and love win.
So I'm back in the present, currently writing to the reader of these posts. I know I have more to say about life but this almost gets the bridge of talking to people who don't/can't open up built.


Beatrice, Achieng Nas is the Founder of The Pearl Community Foundation in Amor Village in Uganda. This is one of the most vulnerable communities in Tororo District, Uganda where every household is suffering from the aftermath of HIV and Aids.
This Community is supporting 220 students, many of whom are total orphans. Others have parents living with HIV and a few are just from extremely poor homes.
Beatrice and her committee have begun farming around the Foundation Centre, particularly pineapples and mangoes. Since starting in 2014 they have only harvested two pineapple crops and one of mangoes because the land is open and the fruit has been taken by other poor villagers.
This year Star Action has been able to fund the building of a tall fence around the land and the students are now confident of crops of fruit (value £500) and adding a chicken coop with up to 500 birds. Some of the students will operate the farm and both the experience and the yield will give them enthusiasm to expand further and copy the farm elsewhere around the villages.
The next step in equipping our centre has been held up for various reasons, including illness of our Star Action helpers in Asiakwa. We have also been trying to gain external funding for the computer equipment, without success yet. Please hold this whole project in your thoughts. Thanks to a generous gift from a UK supporter, we are hoping the internal electrical wiring will be completed soon and the generator up and running.
It was such a wonderful surprise to see the progress with our Community Centre building. I had not expected it would all look so good. It had been five years since my previous visit, when we had been shown an overgrown piece of land outside the little town of Asiakwa which the local Chief was willing to give us for the building of a Community Training Centre for young people in the area. The original plan had been to provide training for teenagers in various different skills, but it had become apparent that the great need was for training in computer and IT and so this is now the focus of the project.
During our visit we had a meeting with the Star Action project team and were very inspired with their dedication and commitment. So much work had been done voluntarily by this group. The building is beautifully designed and soundly constructed, and I was really thrilled to see it looking so much more complete than I had expected. Also exciting was the way in which the grounds around the building have been so carefully tended and are now growing crops. (When we had seen it originally the whole area was completely overgrown. This had been cleared and looks very loved and in good order.) It is currently overseen and looked after by a lovely caretaker family who live in one small area of the building. This means it is kept secure while we await the funding for the next stage which is the equipping with everything needed for it to be an IT Training Centre.
During our visit the water supply was connected and we will go ahead with the electricity connection as soon as we have the sponsorship for the computer and IT equipment. This is the next step in our project. We are approaching various companies who we hope will donate for this very worthwhile community project.
The Ghana Government Education Dept. are encouraging us to proceed because there has been much disruption in the area due to the re-discovery of gold in the streams and valleys in and around Asiakwa. They are keen to stabilise the youth population by training many in careers that will sustain incomes in the long term. They see ICT as being one of these careers that will be in increasing demand in existing institutions which will expand in rapidly developing Ghana.
As reported in our last Newsletter (May 2008) Star Action has been donated land for a community project at Asiakwa. So Jenny and Stuart's first visit was to the 'Cabinet of Chiefs' where we were graciously received. The Paramount Chief of Asiakwa welcomed the proposal for Star Action support and confirmed the gift (actually like a lease, as all land is 'owned' by the Chief for the village) of a large piece of common land. Next we went to view the land, then attended a meeting with our local group of Star Action supporters. They have formed a committee and the chair of this, Mr. Alexco, will be our 'hands on' local agent.
Asiakwa is a small town in the Eastern Region of Ghana. It is situated on a mountain slope. The vegetation is very rich, and many foodstuffs grow in Asiakwa. The town is rich in beauty of nature, such as the beautiful hillside covered in lush green vegetation, and the stream that runs at the foot of the hill.
Asiakwa is a serene town and the energy is peaceful. However, Asiakwa is very much poor in the material sense. Many inhabitants live in mud houses with leaking roofs. Most houses have no pipe-borne water supply, relying on water from the stream (where they often wash themselves and also do their laundry). Local children attend school up to the compulsory lower secondary school level (age 14 years). Beyond that, most parents cannot afford to continue educating their children. Consequently, teenagers join parents in farming, some 'roam about' looking for manual labour, some go on to apprenticeship in trades such as dress-making/tailoring, catering, hairdressing, tie & dye (dyeing of local cloths), to name a few. Needless to say, teenage pregnancy is rife, and the attendant issues of sexually transmitted diseases and concern about HIV/AIDS.
During our two week stay in the town, we had the opportunity of interaction and discussion with teenage children (14 years +) and with their parents. We discussed how best outside help can be utilised to alleviate the poverty in the community. Several options were considered, including scholarship for some young people to university level, sponsoring more young people in apprenticeship, to name a few. However, the issue of 'brain drain' from the community made these options unattractive to them.
Hamida and Fred have recently returned from Ghana and have reported that contact has now been made with government officials in the Education Department and the first stages are taking place to hand over the ongoing running of the community Centre.
The whole village community are most grateful for Star Action's work and initiative in building the Centre.

Barns & Sheds
Client Testimonial: Richard and Marsha Oliver
Inviting someone into your home is an intimate gesture that happens a lot less these days with everyone's busy schedules. Guests get to see how you live, what you like, and maybe even get a little glimpse of the mess you keep meaning to clean. Our home says a lot about who we are and what we value from the pictures on the walls to the furniture we use. It's an honor to be trusted enough to be welcomed into someone's home but to be asked to build someone's home is an even greater honor.
Richard and Marsha Oliver were met by Carol when they came to our Grandview, TX showroom. They wanted to be able to visualize what their home could look like, so Carol gave them a tour of all nine of our models. From our smaller homes the Rio Bravo at 216 square feet and the Chisholm Trail at 336 square feet to the 3-bedroom, 2-bath The Lodge at 1,526 square feet and The Ponderosa at 1,288 square feet, also with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, the Olivers were able to truly imagine what we could build. They decided to trust us to craft a perfect home for them.
The couple chose our best-selling Lone Star model and customized it. "We did so many changes. Carol was so accommodating."
The Olivers were impressed by our ability to customize their cabin. We moved walls to give them a bigger master bedroom, bathroom, and closet. We cut the size of the second bedroom down by half and turned the other bathroom into a half bathroom instead, giving more room where they needed it most and creating the perfect space for their home office.
Our new friends were concerned that downsizing to a 960-square-foot home would mean giving up their favorite furniture, but with their furniture's measurements, our team was able to put their minds at ease. Carol showed the Olivers' what their layout would look like including their furniture and all but two pieces fit perfectly.
During the build process, our production crew sent a photo update so Marsha and Richard could see their home coming alive with its beautiful all-natural wood and chestnut colors that fit in so well with their ranch theme.
Now nestled on a picturesque property in Liberty Hill, Texas and encircled by live oaks, we delivered the Olivers' new home that fits perfectly with its surroundings.
When the Olivers invited us to their home, taking us to see the view from the custom porches they declared, "What an outstanding craftmanship they did on the porches! We are so pleased."
Leland's Cabins has been entrusted to build homes for many people, but we work with our customers to design something unique to each of them. We know that a home is an expression of who they are as individuals. We never take for granted the honor it is when we are invited to build homes for people like Richard and Marsha Oliver.

What chef ever made a meal that he or she would not be happy to eat or was doubtful the paying customer would relish? It may happen but it is likely rare. People in the profession of cooking and creating excellent meals take pride in their work to satisfy their customers. They strive for the joy of those they serve.
[Top schools] can brag about their entrance examinations and I think all they are saying is 'We have the easiest task in the world [be]cause we only admit students who don't need us very much. They can learn on their own.' But the institutions that really have expertise are the ones that can help each individual, perhaps those that need a lot help.
Allen is, of course, one of the pioneers of the elearning industry and a current leader in the field of instructional design. His thinking fits with what we often see in Research I universities: an emphasis on research and publication rather than on teaching. At Research I universities, graduate students commonly do the teaching so that professors can further investigate problems, win funding, and publish results. However, even at institutions that have the mission to teach students, priorities beyond research and publications can be just as disruptive to good instructional design.
Allen has coined the phrase "meaningful, memorable and motivational" with respect to what makes instruction excellent (Allen, 2016). The attribute of motivation is the key to the formula of great instruction (Allen, 2016).
Allen (2016) also shared, among other things, seven strategies for successful instruction. I find all seven to be highly enlightening. His first strategy, however, is particularly refreshing. Allen offers a challenge for designers to always ask: "Would you like to learn from this?" (Allen, 2016). That is, would you enjoy learning the material with the design you created? Or, is your design motivational to you? What a great self-check! Yet, how often do we really examine our work in this way? If we ask this question of ourselves and answer honestly, we will help our learners significantly.
We are quick to call out subject matter experts or others we work with when they seek to drive course development with content rather than skills the learners are to master. We also chastise the thought of students just trying to get through a course to check it off their list of requirements rather than really learn. However, we must continuously call ourselves out if we let deadlines or factors other than good instruction drive our design. Certainly, we must respect deadlines and work within their parameters. In some cases, we must make concessions where we have to get a course out the door sooner than we might like. However, even in those cases, if we start out by putting ourselves in the position of the learner by asking whether we would like to take the course we are creating, we will do much to improve our work.
So, I pass along the challenge from Michael Allen: "Would you like to learn from [your design]?" Ask it from the outset of your work. Ask it often, answer honestly, and make adjustments as needed. Your offerings will likely be more palatable and your paying customers will be much more satisfied. You may even spark the desire for lifelong learning in some of them.

I loved this post. It really triggered a desire to think and look a little further. I initially interpreted Allen's challenge of "would you (the designer) want to learn from this?" as flawed in that it seemed to focus the design perspective from the designer's own point of view. However after reading the full text of Allen's 1st strategy, I see that he is consistently framing his case from the perspective of the intended learner. I might also add that the learner perspective includes environmental factors such as time budgeted vs time expended vs personal objectives met and what sorts of intrinsic motivation the learner is driven by.
This is a good point, Rick. The learning environment and the perspective that the learner brings has a profound impact on student learning. I have always considered that an instructional designer and a teacher or trainer's goal should be to create a learning environment that is most likely to help people learn. At some point, though, the learner must take personal responsibility for their own learning.
I agree, Rick. Looking back on my own education, my favorite professors were those who were passionate about the subject matter. However, that passion must be balanced with attention to the students' own perspectives and with good design specific to the learning environment. By taking Allen's advice and constantly placing ourselves in the students' shoes, we can strive toward achieving that balance.
Thanks for the post, Rick. And yes, this is just a snippet of Allen's work. His book entitled Michael Allen's Guide to eLearning is excellent and covers what you are talking about.
This is actually a very important though, Matt. Sometimes I will create instruction based on a set of prescribed principles that are research-based. I think this is a good approach, but I might miss out on some of the more engaging, motivating strategies that can be applied. I had the thought that perhaps I should create my own personal set of guidelines based on this principle. Is this something you've done? Thanks, Matt!
I really enjoyed this article and think that the question "would you like to learn from this" can also apply to so many other parts of our lives, both personally and professionally. For example, next time I give a presentation, I'm going to think "would I like to listen to this presentation?" Or when I design a graphic or try to plan a party even - would I personally like to view the graphic I designed or attend the party I planned? Matt, have you ever asked yourself this question when developing instruction and, as a result, changed your design mid-way through the process?
Thanks for your comments, Carolyn. I agree with you. And another good question. I know I have asked myself this question and changed some components but I don't think I have done it as deliberately as I would like. I enjoyed Michael Allen's book Leaving ADDIE for SAM wherein he encourages designers to scrap or shelf their initial design and start over. But it is definitely something I am going to do more of.
Something I have realized in my recent years, and more so since my time here at Franklin as a student and an emerging instructional designer, is that the best education one can get is where the pupil is not only achieving outcomes and understanding content, but where he/she is also growing into an independent learner. It is like the saying, "sage on the stage" vs. "guide on the side." The best instructors and course designs allow the learner to take responsibility for their own learning and create space for growth. If the course design and the instructor give the student all the pieces of the puzzle, what's left for them to solve? The skills I have developed as an autodidact have propelled me as a human being on my lifelong journey of learning. I will remember this in my future path of instructional design and ask myself, "Would I like to learn from this?" and "Will the student be able to grow from this?"

Online discussions for community building: the case of women in the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries
Early last year, from the 6th to the 27th of March, 2017, the Rede Mundial Das Margaridas, along with the Land Portal and the Rede da Sociedade Civil para a Segurança Alimentar e Nutricional na Comunidade dos Países de Língua Portuguesa (REDSAN-CPLP) came together in organizing an online debate entitled: "As lutas das mulheres rurais pelo acesso à terra e outros recursos naturais nos países de língua portuguesa", translating roughly to "rural women's fight for access to land and other natural resources in Portuguese speaking countries".
Facilitated by Ms. Joana Rocha Dias, the coordinator of REDSAN-CPLP, the discussion's main goal was to give visibility to and help push forward the women's rights agenda. "Capacity-building and collaborative discussion and formulation of proposals and demands through Land Portal virtual discussions, while not replacing face-to-face actions, is particularly useful as a tool in a region that brings together countries from four different continents, such as the Community of Portuguese Speaking Countries", says Ms. Dias about the influence of online discussions.
The online debate was an opportunity for growth and learning. In an interesting turn of events, it was also an important propeller and catalyst. The debate attracted attention from UN Women in Mozambique, which invited national representatives from the network to join them at a workshop in Maputo, Mozambique, to share their experiences. The objective was to stimulate the interaction organizations of Portuguese-speaking countries, and to strengthen advocacy around their land-related struggles. This specific meeting resulted in the solidification of a network of women fighting for land rights and related issues, the Rede das Margaridas of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP).
As its' Portuguese name would suggest, The Rede das Margaridas of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP), or network, is a means by which women from Portuguese speaking countries, and from around the world, can connect with other women working on similar issues worldwide. Their collective mission is to ensure food security and sovereignty, which is no easy task!
"It is well known that the agenda of rural women has been increasingly recognized by organizations which work for development in the international context. There are conventions for the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women (CEDAW), instruments for protection of women's rights and statutes in international treaties which are legally binding on women's rights. While these are great accomplishments, at the local level, there are still constraints because women's rights continue to be violated. " says Ms. Fanta Mane, who has helped to spearhead the network.
Victoria Medina, the Facilitator of the now established Rede das Margaridas of the Community of Portuguese Language Countries (CPLP) says the following: "To me it is such an honor to facilitate this network at the regional level, alongside these amazing and strong women, who struggle and fight for rural women rights. Our first challenge in creating an established network was to identify and gather together the women leaders who had been working on this issue in the Portuguese Language Countries context. These women became part of the network when it was born, then, right away we committed to articulate, strengthen and give visibility to the Margaridas Network of CPLP to make our voices heard in the governance spaces and, especially, in the decision-making process."
Ms. Medina elaborated on her how her experience collaborating with women working on land rights altered her perpsective. "Before I assumed the role of network facilitator, I already knew that rural women had always been underestimated, and that their rights were limited, the cause of which is gender-based discrimination, socially constructed over generations. When I interviewed these women, however, I realized I was talking to development agents, protagonists of their own history and stories. I was talking to those responsible for feeding the world. We are at a key moment right now and with the Margaridas' Network of CPLP, it doesn't matter what difficulties we are going to face on the way, we will not let anyone silence us or stop us. Together, we will strive for equality and we are going for it, even if we have still a lot work to do."
It is said that there is strength in numbers, that when we collectively come together and work towards a common goal or cause, our commons efforts can be leveraged to do bigger and better things. A supportive environment of like-minded individuals, be they in large or small numbers, is invaluable in all sectors: from reaching sales targets, to increasing profit margins, to achieving more utopian goals such as tenure security and ensuring sustainable development.
Indeed, there is strength in numbers. And in the end, it all comes down to the strength of a woman…or women.

Former FBI Lawyer Lisa Page Sues DOJ, FBI for Publicly Releasing E-Mails
Lisa Page, via social media.
Former FBI attorney Lisa Page filed a lawsuit Tuesday against the bureau and Justice Department for publicly disclosing text messages between her and another FBI employee with whom she was having an affair.
Page argues the release of the text messages violates the Privacy Act, which prohibits the disclosure of individuals' information without their consent, CBS News reports.
The messages between Page and Strzok, who were having an affair, were used by President Trump and Republicans to argue the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election was politically driven. The pair had worked on the investigation and exchanged disparaging messages about Trump during the election.
The messages were released to the media in December 2017.
In the lawsuit, Page says she was subjected to harassment by Trump and the White House "in more than 40 tweets and dozens of interviews, press conferences, and statements."
Page broke her silence in a wide-ranging interview published by the Daily Beast on Dec. 1.
"I sued the Department of Justice and FBI today," Page tweeted Tuesday. "I take little joy in having done so. But what they did in leaking my messages to the press was not only wrong, it was illegal."

Supreme Court Will Hear Data Privacy Issue Between DOJ and Microsoft
The Justice Department continues to do battle over privacy.
Kate Conger of GIZMODO writes:
The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to hear arguments in a critical case over data privacy, the outcome of which will likely determine how easily law enforcement can gain access to information stored in tech companies' overseas data centers. Microsoft will go head-to-head with the Justice Department, arguing that the agency cannot use a warrant to collect emails held in Microsoft's Ireland data center.
In 2016, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of Microsoft, asserting that a 1986 law, the Electronic Communications Privacy Act (ECPA), was not intended to grant law enforcement access to internationally-stored data. The Justice Department says that this ruling has hampered its investigative abilities in the digital age. In asking the Supreme Court to consider the case, the Justice Department argued that "hundreds if not thousands" of investigations into terrorism and child pornography "are being or will be hampered by the government's inability to obtain electronic evidence."

Congress Slams FBI's Use of Facial Recognition Technology Software
Rep. Elijah Cummings
Democrats and Republicans in Congress slammed the FBI's use of facial recognition software, saying it relies on racial biases, leads to the arrests of innocent people and violates privacy.
NBC reports that more than 400 million pictures of Americans' faces are archived in various facial recognition networks, representing about half of all U.S. adults.
"I have zero confidence in the FBI and the [Justice Department], frankly, to keep this in check," Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Massachusetts, said at a hearing of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Regulation.
"This is really Nazi Germany here, what we're talking about," Lynch said. "And I see little difference in the way people are being tracked under this, just getting one wide net and getting information on all American citizens."
Rep. John Duncan, R-Tennessee, added: "I think we're reaching a very sad point, a very dangerous point, when we're doing away with the reasonable expectation of privacy about anything."
Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Maryland, said facial recognition software is less accurate at identifying people with dark skin, women and younger people.
"If you're black, you're more likely to be subjected to this technology," said Cummings, who is black. "And the technology is more likely to be wrong. That's a hell of a combination, especially when you're talking about subjecting someone to the criminal justice system."

ACLU Urges Justice Department to Investigate Use of Facial Recognition Technology
The ACLU is urging the Justice Department to investigate the use of facial recognition technology to determine whether it violates the rights of millions of Americans and disproportionately affects people of color.
The ACLU cited a recently released report by Georgetown Law's Center on Privacy and Technology that concluded the controversial technology is used to identify and track people who are doing nothing wrong, like cross the street, WBALTV reports.
In Maryland, for example, police have the ability to use facial recognition technology to search for more than 7 million state driver's license and ID photos, more than 3 million arrest booking photos and 24.9 mugshots from the FBI's Next Generation Identification database.
"The database is populated, I think may people with be surprised to hear, by over 7 million driver's license photos, so every time you go to get a driver's license you are now submitting to being a participant in a virtual lineup," ACLU attorney David Rocah said.
The ACLU is concerned that the technology may unfairly target people of color.
"Not only do we not know how frequently it is helpful in finding an offender, how often they get a match and then identify the correct person who committed an offense, we also don't know the error rate. We don't know how many false matches, and how many people are falsely accused or wrongly investigated because of incorrect matches," Rocah said.

Classified Rules Allow FBI Agents to Spy on Journalists without Warrant
Without a warrant, the FBI is permitted to use secret surveillance to obtain journalists' phone records with the approval of two government officials.
The Intercept obtained classified rules that show agents only have to get the consent of the FBI's general counsel and executive assistant director of its national security branch.
Privacy and media advocates said the FBI has made it too easy to bypass courts to get subpoenas or search warrants to access journalists' information.
The classified rules mean that agents could try to identify leakers and sources of new.
"These supposed rules are incredibly weak and almost nonexistent — as long as they have that second sign-off they're basically good to go," said Trevor Timm, executive director of the Freedom of the Press Foundation, which has sued the Justice Department for the release of these rules. "The FBI is entirely able to go after journalists and with only one extra hoop they have to jump through."

Senator Delays Bill to Allow FBI to Obtain Internet Records without a Warrant
A bill that would expand the FBI's authority to use secret surveillance to obtain some Internet records was held up because of privacy concerns.
Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., placed a hold on the Intelligence Authorization Act, saying it would lead to a "dramatic erosion" of privacy rights, Reuters reports.
A provision in the legislation would allow the FBI to hand over certain Internet records using national security letter, which do not require a warrant.
"Convenience alone does not justify such a dramatic erosion of Americans' constitutional rights," Wyden said on the Senate floor.

Senate Rejects Legislation to Allow FBI to Search Internet Records without Warrant
The Senate rejected a measure Wednesday that would allow the FBI to search e-mail records and Internet browsing histories of Americans without a warrant.
The USA Today reports the Senate was two votes short of the 60 needed to pass the legislation. The final vote was 58-38.
Last week, the House rejected legislation to ban warrantless surveillance of Americans' electronic communications.
"In the wake of the tragic massacre in Orlando, it is important our law enforcement have the tools they need to conduct counterterrorism investigations and track 'lone wolves,' or (Islamic State)-inspired terrorists who do not have direct connections to foreign terrorist organizations but who seek to harm Americans," Sen. John McCain said.
But Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., said the bill "won't make our country safer, but it will take away crucial checks and balances that protect our freedom."
"FBI agents will be able to demand the records of what websites you look at online, who you email and chat with, and your text message logs, with no judicial oversight whatsoever," Wyden said. "The reality is the FBI already has the power to demand these electronic records with a court order under the Patriot Act. In emergencies, the FBI can even obtain the records right away and go to a judge after the fact. This isn't about giving law-enforcement new tools, it's about the FBI not wanting to do paperwork."

2 Senators Criticize Bill That Would Expand FBI's Warrantless Access to Online Records
A new bill would give the FBI more flexibility to gain warrantless access to online records of Americans.
Two U.S. senators have criticized the 2017 intelligence authorization bill as an overreach that could make it easier for federal investigators to use National Security Letters to access email records, messaging accounts, login records, browser history and social media activity, the Guardian reports.
Although the text of the bill hasn't be discloed yet, Sen. Ron Wyden said the change represents a sweeping expansion of warrantless surveillance.
"While this bill does not clearly define 'electronic communication transaction records', this term could easily be read to encompass records of whom individuals exchange emails with and when, as well as their login history, IP addresses, and internet browsing history," Wyden, a Democrat from Oregon who voted against the bill, told the Guardian.
Sen. Martin Heinrich of New Mexico said he hope to remove the NSL expansion on the bill.
"The FBI has not made a convincing case that it needs any process other than the one that already exists, especially one that freely allows the FBI access to law-abiding Americans' emails and web activity," Henrich said.

DEC news release
Forest Ranger Actions for 11/11/19 – 11/18/19
Town of Long Lake
Wilderness Rescue: On Nov. 14 at 8:10 p.m., Hamilton County 911 transferred a call to DEC's Ray Brook Dispatch requesting assistance with a search for an 82-year-old overdue hunter near Sagamore Lake. The hunter from Chittenango went out earlier in the day but had not been heard from since and his vehicle was still parked at Great Camp Sagamore. His son became concerned as night was settling in and called for assistance to locate his father. Forest Rangers Gary Miller and Jason Scott responded to the location to begin a ground search with other emergency responders. With fresh snow covering the wilderness area, the Rangers quickly found the hunter's trail. At 10:08 p.m., it was relayed that New York State Police were with the hunter back at his vehicle. The subject had walked out on his own, a bit later than planned.
Town of Middleburgh
Wilderness Rescue: On Nov. 14 at 10:40 p.m., Lt. Dave Pachan reported that he was contacted by a Captain with the New York State Police (NYSP) requesting Forest Ranger assistance with the search for a 28-year-old woman from Middleburgh. The subject was last seen on Nov. 13 at 6 p.m., near her cabin on her 300-acre farm. Forest Rangers Christine Nelson, Dylan McCartney, and Jason Seeley responded to assist Schoharie County Sheriff's Deputies, NYSP K-9 units, and NYSP Aviation with the search. On Nov. 15 at 2:10 a.m., the missing woman was located and found to be severely hypothermic. Rescuers carried the woman out of the woods to a waiting ambulance and transported her to a local hospital. All Rangers were cleared of the scene at 3:30 a.m. and back in service.
Town of Benson
Wilderness Rescue: On Nov. 16 at 9:38 p.m., DEC's Ray Brook Dispatch received a call from a man concerned he had not heard from his ex-wife who was late for an appointment. He last spoke to her at 2 p.m., as she was leaving to hike an approximately 12-mile section of the Northville-Placid Trail between Benson and Northville. The caller suspected that the 36-year-old woman from Gloversville was hiking alone. He located her vehicle at the Benson Trailhead. Forest Rangers Ian Kerr, Andrew Lewis, and Jason Scott responded. At 12:43 a.m., Forest Ranger Kerr advised DEC's Central Dispatch that they had located the woman who was experiencing pain in her right leg. The Rangers began walking her out of the woods. Once back at the trailhead, the hiker was transported to a local hospital by the Greater Amsterdam Volunteer Ambulance Corps for further medical treatment. All Rangers were cleared from the scene a short time later.
City of Beacon
Wilderness Rescue: On Nov. 17 at 4 p.m., DEC's Central Dispatch received a call from Dutchess County 911 requesting assistance with a female hiker with an unstable lower leg injury on Mount Beacon. She was reported to be on the Wilkinson Trail at Break Neck Ridge. Forest Rangers Matthew Hettenbaugh and Mark Brand responded to assist. Forest Ranger Brand contacted New York State Park Police and the original caller to get more information. The caller informed Forest Ranger Brand that he is part of a hiking club and that the injured 57-year-old hiker from New York City belonged to this group. The group was providing care to the injured hiker but requested assistance to move the woman back to the trailhead. Considering the distance from the trailhead to the group's location, Forest Ranger Hettenbaugh responded to the trailhead with a six-wheel UTV. Upon Ranger Brand's arrival, he spoke with Park Police and began hiking to the woman with Park staff. Ranger Hettenbaugh arrived at the trailhead and was informed by park staff that Mount Beacon Volunteer Ambulance Corps had taken a UTV up the blue trail and were assisting the hiker. The Ambulance Corps assessed the injury and gave the subject a ride back to the trailhead. The hiker and all rescuers were cleared of the scene by 8:45 p.m.

Is Your Employer Required to Give a Job Reference?
In the following educational legal video, one of our experienced employment lawyers near West Seneca, Andrew P. Fleming discusses your eob references from an employer.
A few times each year I get a call from someone who says, "My employer gave a negative reference about me to another employer. I was terminated by the XYZ company and, when I applied to the ABC company, XYZ gave me a negative job reference." The area of job references is one with which I'm very familiar. Interestingly, an employer does not have to give a job reference on a former employee at all. If an employer is contacted and asked, "What can you tell me about Mary Smith?" The employer is allowed to say, "I have nothing to say about Mary Smith." In and of itself, that can be a negative reference. It's not illegal or actionable to give a negative reference.
Most employers these days, however, do not do that. If it's a large company, a caller will be passed through to the Human Resources Department where the person who receives the call will read a script that says something like, "It is not our company's practice to speak on former employees. We will simply say that Ms. Smith worked for us for four years, and her employment came to an end in November of 2016." That's all they'll say and that's not illegal. Now, false references are a different story. False statements constitute defamation. In the workplace, the issue of defamation can come up because, if someone gives a false reference about someone else, they can be sued.

The 31st of March was the last day the Park Service could have USDA "Wildlife Services" shoot deer under the terms of the warning signs and public announcements they had posted. On that day, no shooters arrived, but protesters did, condemning the 4 days of slaughter in Rock Creek this winter, and opposing all plans to continue.
At the height of rush hour, a police cruiser parked in the area on Oregon Ave where they often park during the deer slaughter, only to leave 45 minutes later and not return. As darkness fell, roads that would close at 6:30Pm on a night of shooting remained open, police and park rangers were nowhere to be found-the Park Service had thrown in the towel.
On Jan 6 USDA "Wildlife Services" was claimed to have shot about 20, on Jan 9 they were claimed by someone to have shot only 16 before being effectively driven off by protesters. That night they did not want to move dead deer on open trucks past camera-wielding protesters. When the protesters stood their ground against the police, the deer apparently were moved to covered trucks, taken past the protesters, and within an hour the shooters had quit.
In February they returned, killing deer on Feb 24 and 25. That time no formal protest was organized, but activists harassed the "golf card" and barricade crews on Oregon Ave. Either this was less effective than the protests or USDA had gotten the hang out of slaughtering deer in Rock Creek, as they must have done most of their killing on these two nights. If they only killed 36 deer the two nights they were opposed by protesters in Jan, that means to get to 106 deer killed with only the two nights in February they must have averaged 40 a night on Feb 24 and 25, twice as many as when protesters were present!
One week later, a badly wounded deer was found by a dog walker and Park Police or rangers had to finish her off. From Feb 26th on activists hung "Bambi" posters condemning the hunt, one version showing the deer who had to be finished off a week later lying dead in Rock Creek.
The Wildlife Services sniper teams were not detected once after Feb 25, with nightly surveillance patrols in Rock Creek looking for them. On the last day of the Jan 6-March 31 season, protesters returned to ensure that the killers did not attempt to fill their quota, not knowing how many had been killed to date. The Park Service, by not saying they were finished, exposed themselves to a month of gory posters being posted in Rock Creek Park condemning the killing.

Pitcher Juan Martinez has spent nearly seven years in the minor leagues and his routine for practically every game day has remained the same: get up early, take a shower, drive to the team's stadium and eat a bit before warm-ups.
Throughout his career, the Dominican-born pitcher has struggled with low wages and difficulty mastering English.
But Martinez persists, with dreams of reaching the big leagues so he can buy his mother the home she has always wanted.
Martinez signed with the Cincinnati Reds as a free agent in 2011 and played for several teams in the minor leagues, including most recently, the Pensacola Blue Wahoos. Like many other Latin-American born minor league players, he has faced struggles that are unique to those born outside of the United States.
According to The Guardian, half of all minor leaguers are Latino.
Many of these players are unable to speak English as fluently as they can speak Spanish. As a result, some of them have a much more difficult time in the minor leagues than their English-speaking counterparts.
On top of language barriers, these players also have to deal with the hardships and financial struggles that come with playing in the minor leagues.
In this hierarchy of professional baseball teams known as Minor League Baseball, players try to work their way up the different minor league levels to get to the highly coveted major leagues.
Every franchise in the minor leagues has a network of different teams primarily used to develop talent. These leagues are also made up of players signed as free agents or players drafted straight from college in the minor league draft. This was the case for Eric Sim, a former pitcher from Canada.
Sim and his family moved from South Korea to Canada when he was 13. He later played for Colby Community College in Kansas for two years before transferring to the University of South Florida where he was drafted by the San Francisco Giants as a junior in 2010.
He played across the minor leagues for six seasons before being released by the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes in 2015. He's stopped playing professional baseball since then.
According to Statista, the average player salary in Major League Baseball was about $4.52 million in 2018. In comparison, players in the minors can only earn a maximum of $1,100 a month during their first season.
Mike Ashmore, a reporter who currently covers the Somerset Patriots and covered the Trenton Thunder in the minor leagues from 2008-2013, said players often have to take up other jobs during the offseason to make ends meet. He said there was even an instance where a player named Edwar Gonzalez, had a side job during the actual season.
While some teams allow their players to work other jobs during the season and training, others are much more hesitant in having their players do work other than baseball.
Sim said he's been through experiences where managers would call out players for working other jobs. They would actively discourage it in front of everyone, but Sim said most players still had offseason jobs anyway.
Many immigrant players are from Latin America.
Luis Arraez, a second baseman for the Chattanooga Lookouts in Tennessee, said being unable to speak English in the minors is challenging but that his teams in the past have helped accommodate him and his teammates.
Arraez was born Venezuela and played for Magallanes in his native country before signing to a minor league contract with the Minnesota Twins in 2013 as a free agent. He has played in the United States for four years and is currently in his first year of living in the country with his wife and daughter.
Despite the accomodations, life as a minor leaguer is still financially difficult for players like Arraez. The second basemen said there are few things the players don't have to pay out of pocket for.
Without much income, many Latino players struggle financially, especially those supporting their families back in their native countries.
Eric Sim, a former minor league pitcher, said he had a teammate from the Dominican Republic who would use his $400 paycheck to send $200 back home to his family. Although the money helped his family, he would have to survive in the United States with half a paycheck.
Many players go through these trials and tribulations of playing in the minor leagues in the hopes of reaching their dreams in the big leagues. Although many persevere despite the low wages, most players end up spending their entire careers in the minors with little to show for their work.


A lot of individuals with conservative values see the results of the midterm elections as a possible negative impact in their children's education while on public schools. It is no surprise that keywords like Affordable Homeschooling Programs are now trending on social media. If by any chance this sounds like you, and you're searching for homeschooling in Pittsburg, Texas, than Great Homeschool Convention has something for you. Our conferences provide you with a ton of information to those looking for homeschooling lesson plans and resources.
When you are contemplating which route to take in terms of your children's education, you may be questioning, how is homeschooling dissimilar from public schooling in Pittsburg?
Regular schooling has several benefits and drawbacks, as does home schooling your son or daughter. Traditional school is to aid your little one in grasping regulation and promptness while giving them the time to meet friends and grow socially. The downside? Public are getting to be progressively risky. As well as the best traditional school, you have the chance that the kid is going to be bullied or perhaps not receive the correct amount of attentiveness that they require to florish intellectually.
Home-Schooling is great in the sense that this allows your child to obtain the proper amount of devotion that they need in order to florish. Courses are set up to either help the parent to show their children or enable the children utilize a "satellite" teacher who gives tests, grades work and provides the feedback a public school teacher would. In any event, the kid gets a personal learning experience that might be unachievable in regular schools. Yet, it may be a tough time for a child who prefers to be among other kids or needs aid in structure. As a result, it is very important stick with a custom and enable the child to make time for friends and social events so that she / he is not be missing out.
Seeing the trend toward homeschooling, the majority of parents are wondering how to get started home-schooling. Truthfully, home schooling, will be the upsurge of the future with the world as the classroom.
From the time a young child is born he or she is learning. When seen from this point of view, it is easy to begin on learning. As children begin to show a desire for learning it's time to begin showing them numbers, the alphabet, shapes and colors. By the time a child reaches school age, those who are educated in this style will already know how to write, read and say their own address.
After the child is of school age, many states requires the home-schooling parents file an tutoring plan with the school district. Parents may go through various methods to teach their children. From online groups to groups within the school district near where the child would attend.
there are a number of great options for home-schooling. Programs will also be found as email courses. Students will be asked to prove to the state periodically they are on the same level as his or her peers or over that degree of education.

Breast cancer patients find support online
Forums, discussion boards, blogs help patients...
(iStock/Plus)
There was a time when a woman diagnosed with breast cancer depended on her circle of friends, family and work colleagues for emotional support. Or she could join a support group. Getting medical information may have been limited to the hospital where she was treated.
With the rise of social networks such as Facebook and Twitter and online discussion groups, women with breast cancer now have access to much wider networks to find support and get answers to their questions. Blogging can help a woman share her experiences on the Internet and interact with people from other states, other countries or other cultures.
When a woman is newly diagnosed with breast cancer, she often seeks out online forums and discussion boards at cancer sites, like the Breast Cancer Site or Young Survival Coalition.
The Breast Cancer Site page on Facebook has almost 250,000 fans. The page posts links about fund-raising events around the world and breaking news on cancer research. The site itself has a section called Share Your Story, where women can share their experiences directly with others. The forum is for both survivors and supporters.
"Tell us your story of courage and love," says the introduction to Share Your Story, "and inspire other survivors and supporters around the world."
"I come to the Web site every day ... to read the newest story of hope and bravery. I am so inspired by these women and know that should I need the support, I definitely have a safe haven with women who would have gone before me," wrote one reader.
Sites like these can help a woman with breast cancer realize that she is not alone, that many others share her experience and can help her feel supported during what is arguably the worst time of her life.
Dian, a radio journalist, uses her Facebook and Twitter pages to keep friends and family updated about the progress of her breast cancer treatment. She finds it too tiring to send emails to individual people or to phone them, but she can easily post regular updates on social networking sites. The messages she gets back from people support her emotionally, she says. People often have suggestions about books, foods and relaxation practices that she can try.
Marie was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004. She had no knowledge of social networking at the time and didn't access it during her diagnosis and treatment.
"It's only in the last year, when I decided to set up a blog on the aftermath of treatment, that I started down the path of social networking," she says, "There are many blogs, chat forums and Web sites available for those newly diagnosed or going through treatment, but not much out there on what it is like to have gone through the experience and how you integrate it with the rest of your life."
She set up a blog called Journeying Beyond Breast Cancer that she says has been very well received.
Five years after having cancer, she uses her blog, "to connect with those working in the field of advocacy. I see my role as providing support and information. I want to use my knowledge and experience to light the road ahead for women."
"For me, I find a great sense of community and connectedness in writing my blog," she says. "It helps me make sense of my own cancer experience. It allows me to keep up to date with the latest medical research and best practices."
Marie says she is careful to filter information about breast cancer to make sure it is substantiated.
The only downside, she says, to keeping up her blog, is that her husband worries that she is not moving on from the cancer by staying involved in the lives of women who have it.
She disagrees, saying, "I believe that as a cancer survivor, I owe it to others to help however I can."

The Los Angeles Police Commission is investigating how half of the recording antennas in the Southeast Division went missing, seemingly as a way to evade new self-monitoring procedures that the Los Angeles Police Department imposed last year.
Anon officer: "No one likes it. Who wants to be followed all over the place?" The antennas, which are mounted onto individual patrol cars, receive recorded audio captured from an officer's belt-worn transmitter. The transmitter is designed to capture an officer's voice and transmit the recording to the car itself for storage. The voice recorders are part of a video camera system that is mounted in a front-facing camera on the patrol car. Both elements are activated any time the car's emergency lights and sirens are turned on, but they can also be activated manually.
According to the Los Angeles Times, an LAPD investigation determined that around half of the 80 patrol cars in one South LA division were missing antennas as of last summer, and an additional 10 antennas were unaccounted for. Citing a police source, the newspaper said that removing the antennas can reduce the range of the voice transmitters by as much as a third of the normal operating distance.
The Police Commission, an independent body that oversees LAPD policy, was only notified of the situation two months ago.
Glad to know about the security for the vehicles.I like this idea which is usually best to trap the thieves.Its very helpful for the people and also for the government.Nice informative blog and very well work done on this blog.If you want to know more about the cars and their specs and to track the vehicle so have a look on BMW VIN Decoder.It help you a lot.
