Challenge coins became a significant part of military history in World War II. They have found an important role in the rigorous life of military men who fought for freedom in times of war and aimed to protect in times of peace. They have become prized possessions and symbols of special memories. These small medallions are symbols of unprecedented courage of men and women who faced near-death experiences in different battles to preserve the nation's independence. They are reminders of their sweat, blood and hard work. They are used to win numerous coin checks which entertained them while stationed in different parts of the country.
Challenge coins have evolved from their traditional uses, designs and purposes. From using currency coins in the past, military officials commissioned manufacturers to make especially-minted coins with specific designs for each military unit. From serving the simple purpose of boosting the morale of enlisted men, they are now awarded to show appreciation even to civilians who support military programs. From being a simple identification tool to avoid spies during covert meetings in the past, they've become collectibles worthy of being displayed in the most avid collector's living room.
Challenge coins have captured the essence of military mission and affiliation. These small, shiny coins are essentially improved versions of identification or business cards for men who unselfishly serve the country against enemies. They are specially-designed for each unit with the images, markings and motto members lived by. They've become trademarks of men in service. They represent the hard work to pass difficult trainings and missions. They serve as concrete reminders of achievements or outstanding performance of duties alongside with special plaques of citation and medals of valor.
The long tradition of carrying unit coins is a manifestation of pride, respect and loyalty to the country. These coins become symbols of brotherhood and fraternity. Oftentimes, they are traded, collected, challenged and presented between or among team members. During times of separation, unit members exchanged coins for posterity. They became an emblem of friendship, deep bond, and camaraderie among these men and women.
Throughout their service, military personnel have lots of opportunities to receive challenge coins as recognition for bravery and leadership. Most military branches have coin ceremonies for their cadets and present coins to welcome them in service. These coins are used to reward those who show courage against pressure during missions and for contributions during tactical operations. The presidents of every nation have traditions to welcome and honor heroes of war, with special coins containing the seal of the country.
The popularity of military coins has influenced the law enforcement and firefighter agencies to make their own coin traditions. They use them to award achievers on their ranks and inspire their men to be united and prepared to protect the communities against threats in all forms. Civil Air Patrol and Eagle Scouts also adopted coin presentation in honoring their graduates. Organizations and associations that want to make their events memorable have their own special coins for tokens or rewards. Some of them are National Football League (NFL), National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) and World Series Poker.
The Utah Symphony and Opera became the first musical group to present customized coins its musicians and staff in year 2007. Graduates of Franklin Public School received coins that feature their mascot "Frankie. Family Trasciatti has their own coin with Italian and American symbols to welcome new members by birth, marriage or adoption.
There is no denying the fact that military challenge coins have greatly inspired people to appreciate the historical and cultural value of even the littlest medallions.

Q: how to change which element parsley-error is added to I'm working with parsley.j and when an error happens it adds a parsley-error class to the input element. Is there a way to change this so it adds it to another element up the chain.

  <input class="string email optional input parsley-validated parsley-error" data- trigger="change" data-type="email" id="user_email" name="user[email]" placeholder="Enter your email" size="200" type="text" value="">

I want to add the parsley-error class to the first div  instead of the input class.

A: If you look here http://parsleyjs.org/documentation.html#parsleyclasses, you could via a callback function determine in Parsley config, on which dom element you whant Parsley to put the error/success classes
$('#form').parsley( {
    errors: {
        classHandler: function ( elem, isRadioOrCheckbox ) {
            return $( elem ).parent();
        }
    }
} );

If you do so, please not that you'll need to remove the data-validate="parsley" attribute.
You could also use the listeners, onFieldError and onFieldSuccess to add you proper class on the div you want.

Das Pariser Observatorium () wurde 1667 von Ludwig XIV. gegründet und gehört seit dem 17. Jahrhundert zu den renommiertesten Forschungsstätten der Astronomie. Es steht in Paris in der Avenue de l'Observatoire. Heute hat es zwei Außenstellen in Meudon und Nançay und beschäftigt insgesamt rund 1000 Mitarbeiter (davon ca. 400 freie Mitarbeiter).

Geschichte
Das Observatorium wurde auf dem Meridian von Paris errichtet, der am 21. Juni 1667, dem Tag der Sommersonnenwende, von Adrien Auzout, Jacques Buot, Bernard Frénicle de Bessy, Jean Picard und Jean Richer, Mathematikern und Astronomen der Académie Royale des Sciences, durch eine Markierung auf einem Stein festgelegt wurde. Die bahnbrechende Architektur des Hauptgebäudes wurde von Claude Perrault konzipiert und 1671 abgeschlossen. Das Pariser Observatorium ist die größte astronomische Forschungseinrichtung Frankreichs und eine der bedeutendsten der Welt. Sie ist in fünf Departments und verschiedene weitere Untereinheiten unterteilt und gehört zum Geschäftsbereich des französischen Ministeriums für Erziehung und Forschung. Unter dem Direktor Henri-Alexandre Deslandres fusionierte sie 1926 mit dem Observatorium Meudon.

Die ersten Direktoren waren Giovanni Domenico Cassini (Cassini I), Jacques Cassini (Cassini II), César François Cassini de Thury (Cassini III) und Jean Dominique Comte de Cassini (Cassini IV), die das Amt in ununterbrochener Reihenfolge von Vater zu Sohn bis zur Französischen Revolution bekleideten. Im Laufe der Zeit waren viele der Pariser Astronomen Mitglied der weltweit führenden Pariser Akademie.

Das große, um 1870 gebaute Spiegelteleskop war durch seine Bauweise und seine günstig zugängliche Montierung – an sie wurde eine maschinelle Wendeltreppe angebaut – eines der besten Instrumente seiner Zeit.

Unter anderem erzielte die Sternwarte eine bis dahin unerreichte Schärfe bei der neuen fotografischen Technik – insbesondere bei Aufnahmen des Erdmondes – und gab den berühmten Pariser Mondatlas heraus.

In der Erdmessung und Geophysik kooperierte das Observatorium mit anderen Instituten und nahm an fast allen wichtigen Gradmessungen teil.

Außenstellen

Das Observatorium Meudon wurde 1875 gegründet und 1926 dem Observatorium Paris angegliedert. Als Beobachtungsstelle diente das ehemalige Schloss Meudon, das mit einer großen Kuppel zur Aufnahme eines Teleskops versehen wurde. Es beherbergt eines der größten Linsenfernrohre, ein Doppelrefraktor mit Öffnungen von 82 cm und 63 cm, welches 1893 installiert wurde.
1965 wurde auf einem zur Sternwarte gehörenden Gelände in Meudon der Sonnenbeobachtungsturm Meudon errichtet.

Das Radioteleskop Nançay in der kleinen Gemeinde Nançay im Département Cher wurde 1953 errichtet.

No Clear View of Employment

Double-glazing salesman loses appeal to be classed as employee
In one of those unusual cases where a self-employed individual claims to be an employee, Malcolm Tomlinson failed to persuade the First Tier Tax Tribunal that he was an employed double-glazing salesman.
Mr Tomlinson worked as a glazing salesman for more than 35 years selling mainly conservatories and double glazing. He, and the companies he worked for, always understood him to be self-employed. It therefore came as a surprise to Tomlinson when his new adviser, who he had hired to deal with an enquiry into his tax affairs, which had started in early 2013, advised him that he may in fact be an employee.
After two years of discussions, Tomlinson's adviser was unable to persuade HMRC that his status should be re-categorised as employee, causing HMRC to issue an NIC decision that Tomlinson was self-employed for the period 6th April 2004 – 5th November 2015.
In the period in question Mr Tomlinson worked for Window Centre (Solihull) Ltd (WCSL) but there were no written contractual terms. He first started working for WCSL in around 1990 but left the following year. After about 12–18 months, Tomlinson returned to work for WCSL on the same verbal terms he had worked under previously.
Working arrangements
Mr Tomlinson's main job was to sell WCSL's products. He generated his own leads as well as receiving leads that the company received directly. Following an enquiry, Tomlinson would visit the customer at their home and take measurements. He would then provide a quote with some suggested designs. If the customer decided to go ahead, he would take a deposit and then pass the job over to WCSL's surveyors.
Quotes and initial contracts were produced on WCSL's headed paper and would be signed by Tomlinson on behalf of WCSL.
Training was provided by WCSL on new products to all of its salesmen. WCSL also had an arrangement with a finance company to provide interest free credit to its customers and the finance company also provided training to the salesmen as to how to fill in the credit application forms. Mr Tomlinson was not required to pay for any of this training.
Tomlinson provided and paid for his own car and mobile phone.
WCSL provided Tomlinson with stationery, business cards, samples, brochures, an e-mail address and the use of its premises including access to a computer and landline telephone. Again, the worker did not have to pay WCSL for any of this.
In 2014, WCSL provided Tomlinson with a laptop loaded with specialised software for providing quotes and producing contracts, completely free of charge.
Shirts bearing the WCSL logo were also given to Mr Tomlinson at no cost to him.
Basis of remuneration was strictly commission based, with the headline rate being 10%. WCSL produced a price list for its products but Tomlinson could give customers a discount of up to 25% on the listed price without affecting his commission. If he gave customers a higher discount of up to 30%, this would need to be approved by WCSL and his commission would be reduced. Commissions would also be reduced or clawed back in three other circumstances:
if there was a problem with the job which resulted from an error made by Tomlinson;
if the customer failed to pay; and
if the customer cancelled the job.
Each month, Tomlinson would submit a commission claim form for the previous month listing of all the orders which had been placed and in respect of which he believed he was entitled to commission. The claim form would be reviewed by WCSL and sometimes adjustments would be made to the commissions.
Payment was normally made after about four weeks after the claim form was submitted. On some occasions, when payment was delayed, a payment on account was made.
Until mid-2002, WCSL paid Mr Tomlinson a regular weekly advance payment against his commission entitlement of less than £250.
During the period in question, Tomlinson spent approximately two days per week in WCSL's showroom where he would deal with telephone enquiries and customers visiting the showroom. He would also perform administrative tasks such as receiving post and directing visitors to other parts of the business.
No limit was placed on Tomlinson's holiday entitlement but in 2009 he was required to complete holiday request forms which were countersigned by WCSL.
Half of Tomlinson's paperwork/administration was carried out at home and the remainder at WCSL's premises.
Tomlinson appeared in a number of adverts in local newspapers placed by WCSL alongside WCSL officials.
There was no possibility of Tomlinson providing a substitute as any replacement salesman would not have the requisite training in respect of WCSL's products and credit facility.
No holiday pay, sick pay or pension contributions was received from WCSL.
Painting the picture
HMRC argued that WCSL exercised very little control and that the element of control should be given different weight according to the scenario and that it was less important in this case.
Mr Tomlinson's participation in training was evidence of some control being exercised by WCSL over him but, by the same token, if he did not understand the product and how to fill in credit application forms, he would be less likely to generate sales.
Overall, the Tribunal felt that WCSL did exercise sufficient control over Mr Tomlinson in order for there to be the possibility of the existence of a contract of service although the level of control was modest and could equally be consistent with a contract for services.
The equipment provided by WCSL was considered to be relatively minor and even the provision of a laptop was not significant. As such, this test did not provide any real indication one way or another.
This was also true of other items provided by WCSL, such as brochures, samples, stationery and access to WCSL's premises and associated office equipment.
Providing his own car and mobile phone was more supportive of the self-employment argument but given the nature of Tomlinson's work, this was not strong enough to point either way.
Financial risk/payment terms
That Tomlinson was paid only on a commission basis was considered significant by the Tribunal. He could work as many hours as he liked but if he failed to achieve any sales, he would not earn anything. This was a very great risk compared to an employee who is normally paid for the work which they do.
Tomlinson was also subject to other risks. If the customer failed to pay, he received no commission and was therefore at risk of bad debts and unpaid invoices.
Although commissions earned were within the parameters laid down by WCSL, Tomlinson was able to influence the amount of commissions he could generate. If he was able to negotiate a sale without providing too big a discount, he would get more commission.
In agreeing to be paid on a commission only basis, Tomlinson took a significant financial risk. Whilst he had the opportunity to increase his profits by generating his own leads and negotiating better deals, he did incur expenses which would reduce his profits which could give rise to a theoretical loss. The Tribunal therefore considered this to a fairly strong indicator of self-employment rather than employment.
Whilst it was a fact that Mr Tomlinson's personal service was a feature of the working arrangements, HMRC sought to argue that this was not decisive.
Mutuality of obligation (MOO)
HMRC did not put forward any arguments on this point but the Tribunal were prepared to assume that the necessary MOO existed, although if MOO in fact required there to be an obligation on WCSL to provide work and an obligation on Tomlinson to do the work provided, the Tribunal doubted whether those obligations existed.
Employee type benefits
Hypocritically, HMRC sought to argue that the lack of employee type benefits was clear evidence that Tomlinson was not an employee but the Tribunal attached very little weight to this factor.
Whilst Mr Tomlinson had many of the hallmarks of being seen to be part and parcel of WCSL's organisation, HMRC argued that there was no reason to suppose that a customer would care whether he was an employee of the company or whether he was self-employed.
The Tribunal did not think it would be unusual for a self-employed salesman to be authorised to sign contracts on behalf of the company and this factor was no strong enough evidence of being an employee.
The whole picture
There were factors which supported both employment and self-employment.
In favour of employment were the following factors:
WCSL did exercise some control over Tomlinson's activities
WCSL provided equipment and support to enable Tomlinson to do his job
Tomlinson appeared to the outside world to be an employee
There was a negligible chance of Tomlinson making a loss
Personal service of Tomlinson
Factors pointing towards self-employment were:
Worker was paid on a commission only basis
Tomlinson incurred non-reimbursed expenses
Although WCSL exercised some control over Tomlinson, he was fairly free to work in the way he wanted and there was no limit on the time he could take off
No entitlement to holiday or sick pay
Ability to increase earnings by Tomlinson generating more of his own leads and negotiating the best possible deals.
Standing back from the detail and looking at the overall picture, the Tribunal tended to believe that this showed that Tomlinson was in business on his own account and was not an employee.
The picture was not a clear one and was one of those cases where either conclusion would be perfectly possible. That both parties believed Tomlinson was self-employed and operated on that basis for almost 25 years was decisive and it was concluded that the appellant was self-employed.
HMRC demonstrated just how contrary they can be in placing different emphasis on some of the employment status tests, when under normal circumstances they would argue very differently.

No New Tool and A Perfect Circle Albums in 2017?
The wait continues? According to a tweet send out by A Perfect Circle's official account, neither APC or Tool will release new albums in 2017.
Tool officially stated earlier this year that Maynard James Keenan has begun vocal work on the new Tool record. No official release plans have been revealed for Tool, but that's what makes the A Perfect Circle news so distressing.
A Perfect Circle have been playing two new songs, "Feathers" and "Hourglass" on their 2017 U.S. tour, so there is new material brewing within the rock collective. When will Tool and A Perfect Circle finally gift fans with new music? Like the last decade-plus, we'll just have to keep waiting patiently.

Q: SWTException on trying to async(Thread) to display Problem: I need 3 threads. Thread1 reads an int-value and starts an action (that involves a UI) if this value changes. Thread2 is the UI. Thread3 is the action that should be performed when Thread1 notices that the int changed. Now, when I start thread2 and then do
    display.async(new Thread1())
it won't show the UI since the open()-method is called later. When I do open() first and then display.async() it'll throw an SWTException immediately:

So if I was asked what happened here I'd say there's some problem with sychronizing the threads since as far as I know the display-thread needs to 'know' which threads will modify the surface. However I have no idea how to solve that problem...
Here're some code snippets: (thread1 = GUIListener; thread2 = SokobanGUIManager; thread3 = SwitchToRoboControl)

    public class StartSokobanSolver {

            manager.start();

            //Thread listener = new Thread(new GUIListener());
            //listener.start();

            this.display.asyncExec(new Thread(new GUIListener()));

            this.shell = new Shell(this.display);

            goToMainMenu();

            this.solution = solution;
        }

        @Override
        public void run() {
            ...action to be performed
        }
    }

A: Don't start GUIListener at all. Use menu listener for "Solve Riddle by Robot" which will schedule game solving and then perform some UI actions. This can be achieved in two ways:
1) Solving game directly in "Solve Riddle by Robot" listener
2) Starting a thread which computes the solution and then uses "Display.asyncExcec" (or syncExec) to present the solution in the UI
See here how to attach a listener to a MenuItem.
Hope that helps.

The President and Secretary- Treasurer were democratically elected by membership for a three year term, which runs January 2018 – December 2020. These Officers are the leaders of our union, who are responsible for the daily operation of the union and resolution of all union business. They oversee all union staff and maintain a close working relationship with committee and chapter chairs.
President Steve Catanese
Steve Catanese is the President of SEIU Local 668, a member-driven local representing 19,000 state, county, municipal, and private sector workers across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Elected to serve as President in October 2017, Steve immediately initiated a statewide member-to-member internal organizing campaign to educate and inform union members about strengthening their collective power as workers. As a direct result of that campaign, SEIU 668 has more members than it did before the Supreme Court's anti-worker ruling in the Janus v. AFSCME case. He continues to advocate on behalf of workers with employers and legislators across the Commonwealth, as well as to develop and refine new internal processes and operations to improve SEIU 668's capacity to empower workers.
Prior to his tenure as President, Steve worked as a Business Agent for SEIU 668 beginning in 2016, a role in which he represented state and county employees in Central Pennsylvania. He worked as a caseworker at a County Assistance Office in Pittsburgh from 2011 until 2016, during which he served as a Shop Steward and participated in numerous union activities. In 2014, he represented SEIU 668 as a fellow in SEIU's inaugural Freedom Summer millennial engagement and voter mobilization program, shortly before he was elected to serve SEIU 668 on its Statewide Executive Board.
Steve holds a Bachelors of Art in Journalism from Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Born and raised in Lower Burrell, PA, a suburb of Pittsburgh, he currently resides in Central PA with his dog Teagan.
Secretary-Treasurer JoAnne Sessa
JoAnne "Jo" Sessa is serving her second term as Secretary Treasurer for SEIU 668.
Jo began her Union leadership as a Chief Shop Steward and chair of the labor management committee in Delaware County, Crosby District. She educated and mobilized new and seasoned members of both Delaware County DPW offices where she has served as an Income Maintenance Caseworker for over 26 years.
Jo served as a Member Political Organizer in four "loss time" campaigns including the 2008 Presidential Campaign. She was a key member organizer, mobilizer and lobbyist for Chapter 10. She also served as Vice Chair of State Shops and Treasurer of Chapter 10 as well as a delegate for the Southeastern Pa AFL-CIO.
In 2011, Jo was elected to the CAO Rank & File Committee and became a voting member of the Statewide Executive Board of SEIU 668. She became the Chair of this committee in 2014 representing 4300 members statewide. Her position as Chair of the largest work committee of Local 668 opened her eyes to the lack of respect given to union workers by the state, counties and private employers statewide. This lack of respect and total disregard of what our union forefathers fought for convinced her to run for Secretary Treasurer and fueled her ambition to rebuild SEIU 668.
Jo is committed to educating ALL members and holding those elected to represent our members accountable for living up to their leadership roles. She will reconnect the broken lines of communication between shops and Interstate Drive. She believes that listening to the concerns and suggestions of members is a crucial part of internally organizing and the rebirth of our great Local. This must be a team effort to be successful as we can only be as strong as our weakest link. UNITED WE STAND….DIVIDED WE FAIL.

Az Itáliában és Szicíliában élt ókori görögök művészete. A legkorábbi emlékek a mükénéi kultúra görögségétől származnak a Kr. e. 15. századból. A mükénéi állam összeomlását követően a kapcsolatok megszakadtak. Mikor a Kr. e. 8. században megindult a gyarmatosítás, ismét élnék kereskedelmi és kulturális kapcsolat jött létre, nagy számú görög telepes érkezett a területre, legelőször Ischia szigetére majd a szomszédos Cumae-ba. A Kr. e. 7. században rengeteg görög város alapult Dél-Itáliában (görög nevén Magna Graecia) és Szicíliában: Nápoly - Neapolis, Paestum, Rhegium, Taranto - Tarentum, Agrigento - Agrigentum, Selinus, Gela, Metapontion, Megara Hyblea, Locri - Lokroi Epizephyroi. Ezek a városok voltak a művészet központjai.

Az anyavárosokból folyamatos ösztönzések érkeztek, de a helyi hagyományok (lásd: italikus művészet) is erősen hatottak, így alakult önállóvá az italióta művészet.

Építészet

Az építészetben a dór és az ión oszloprenden kívül mást nem alkalmaztak, a templom alaprajzát azonban a helyi kultúrák hatására módosították.

Szobrászat
A nagyszobrászatban jellemzőek a monumentalitásra törekvő domborművek, melyek közül a Selinosból előkerült a legjellemzőbb példa. A kisplasztika kedvelt anyaga a terrakotta, számos szobrocska került elő a sírokból. Ugyancsak sírokból kerültek elő a bronzszobrászat emlékei. Jelentős az éremművészet leletanyaga is, e műfaj volt az italióta művészet legsikeresebb műfaja. Az éremművészet virágkorát a Kr. e. 6-5. században élte, központja Syrakusai (Siracusa) volt (pl.: Arethusa-pénzek). Az a tény is ismert, hogy Hellász legnagyobb mesterei is jártak és alkottak ezen a területen, mint Mürón és Lüszipposz.

Festészet
Hellászhoz hasonlóan itt is a vázafestészet maradt csak az utókorra. A vázafestészet előzményei a Kr. e. 8. századig követhetők nyomon, az egyik első ismert ilyen váza az Arisztonothosz-váza. A Kr. e. 5. században megjelent a vörösalakos vázafestészet, mely ezt követően másfél évszázadon át virágkorát élte. Központjai Apulia, Lucania, Paestum, Campania és Szicília voltak.

A Római Köztársaság hódítását követően az élénk kapcsolat az anyavárosokkal megszakadt, az alkotások igénytelenebbek lettek. Bár görög jellegüket és mesterek technikai tudását megőrizték, önállót már nem tudtak alkotni. Így lett az italióta művészet az Augustus-korabeli klasszicizmus egyik közvetlen forrása.

         return context

A: The get_queryset is used to return customized queryset not the context. To get context you have to override get_context_data so rename get_queryset with get_context_data like this:
class BookNotLogged(generic.ListView):
    # rest of code

    def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
          context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs)
          context.update({
            'book1':Book.objects.get(id="2"),
            'book2':Book.objects.get(id="3"),
            'book3':Book.objects.get(id="4"),
            'book4':Book.objects.get(id="8"),
            'book5':Book.objects.get(id="9"),
            'book6':Book.objects.get(id="10"),

Alligator Bites Off Night Swimmer's Arm
Katie Herrel
Swimming at night can frighten just about anyone — something about the unknown blackness below your feet (and a certain shark movie that opens at night) can unsettle even the normally brave. 18-year-old Kasey Edwards isn't going to make anybody feel any safer: While swimming across a 25-foot-deep canal at 2 a.m. in Okeechobee County, Florida, an 11-and-a-half foot alligator attacked him and bit off his left arm.
He escaped by grabbing on to a buoy line as the gator went into a death roll. When the gator let go, he swam to escape and noticed his arm was gone. Friends pulled Edwards to safety, and now he's in the hospital listed in fair condition, other than missing a left arm 3-4 inches above the elbow. In an interview with the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Edwards ascribes his survival to intervention by a higher power:
"It's a very surreal feeling. You know, feeling like you're about to die here and you know, praying to God," Edwards said. "I have to give all the credit to God for keeping me out there."
"I don't care who you are or how strong you think you are. You aren't going to be able to hold on to a buoy line while an 11½-foot alligator is trying to pull you underwater," he said.
The official report indicates that Edwards had been drinking and "may have been impaired" at the time of the incident. The report also states that his friends urged him not to attempt the late-night channel crossing. Still, Edwards thinks some of the fault should go to the alligator:
"Edwards said his attack shows something needs to be done about the overpopulation of gators.
"They're not protected creatures. They're nuisance animals," he said.
Edwards mentioned he never paid "too much mind" to canal-swimming gators in the past, but it's probably a safe bet he'll pay them plenty of attention before attempting another late-night channel crossing.

Business & Economy Viewing pornography increases unethical behaviour at work
Viewing pornography increases unethical behaviour at work
New research discovers employees who view pornography aren't just costing companies millions of dollars in wasted time, they're causing harm to the company

Business & EconomyFeatured NewsInternationalOpinionThe Way We See ItWorld
New research has discovered that employees who view pornography aren't just costing companies millions of dollars in wasted time, they're causing harm to the company.
A study published in the Journal of Business Ethics finds that viewing pornography at work increases unethical behavior. Given unethical employee behaviour is linked to a number of negative organisational outcomes — like fraud and collusion — employee pornography consumption is putting organisations at risk.
"Pornography is often framed as an issue affecting only individuals and relationships outside of a business context," said study co-author Melissa Lewis-Western, a Brigham Young University professor of accountancy. "But businesses are made up of people, and people make decisions, and businesses function off the decisions people make. If you have a societal phenomenon that a lot of people are participating in and it negatively impacts individuals' decisions, that has the potential to impact organisational-level outcomes."
The study included an experiment with 200 participants and a nationally-representative survey of 1,000 other individuals. In the experiment, one group was tasked with recalling and recording their last experience viewing pornography. The researchers chose not to expose participants directly to pornography due to ethical concerns and concerns of selection and demand effects.
Meanwhile, members of the control group were asked to recall and record their most recent experience exercising. Both groups were then employed to watch the entirety of a boring 10-minute video consisting of a blue background with a monotone voice speaking with subtitles.
Researchers found 21 percent of those who had recalled their last experience viewing porn did not finish viewing the video, but lied about it. Only 8 percent of those in the control group did not finish the video and lied about it. This represented a statistically significant 163 percent increase in shirking work and lying for those who view pornography. Similar evidence was obtained from the survey.
The experiment also found that the rise in unethical behaviour is caused by an increased propensity to dehumanize others; pornography consumption increases the viewer's propensity to view others as objects or less than human.
Authors, which include BYU accounting professor David Wood and former BYU graduate student Nathan Mecham, say because porn consumption causes dehumanisation, the incidence of sexual harassment or hostile work environments is likely to increase with increases in employee pornography consumption. "Organizations should be mindful of those risks," said Mecham, now a Ph.D. student at the University of Pittsburgh.
"If you have a larger portion of your employees that are consuming pornography at work, it's likely changing their behaviours and those changes are likely negative," Lewis-Western said. "Regardless of your stance on pornography, most people want to be good employees, they want to be fair to men and women and they don't want to be unethical. That's where we need to start the conversation. We need to refrain from viewing pornography to create work environments that are inclusive to all."
The researchers suggest companies take steps to reduce pornography consumption at the office, including:
Preventative controls such as internet filters and blocking devices
Policies that prohibit porn consumption at work, with penalties
Hiring employees who are less likely to view pornography than others
"Almost everyone cares about the #MeToo movement and women, but if you care about that, then you have to care about this issue too," Lewis-Western said. "If your manager is regularly watching pornography at work, then our research suggests that the way you are treated is going to be different in negative ways." -/TISG

The Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) (NRC, 2013) have developed a framework for more effective pedagogical approaches in the science classroom that advance student engagement in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM). The framework is cited in developing student understanding of three major aspects of learning: "understanding of science concepts, their identities as learner of science, and their appreciation of scientific practices and crosscutting concepts" (NGSS, 2012).The framework explains that the most effective way of transmitting these aspects of learning is through "investigation, collection and analysis of evidence, logical reasoning, and communication of information" (NGSS, 2013). Project-Based Learning (PjBL) meets these criteria, and is argued by the scientific and educational communities to be a portal for aligning science teaching to the NGSS. This project cites the wealth of support for PjBL in the science classroom. Additionally, this project proposes a unit plan that introduces PjBL in the science classroom in an attempt to engage students in genuine science learning that references the NGSS. Specifically, students work in groups throughout the unit to collaborate on research, design, data analysis, and a presentation of their understanding of the different forms and effectiveness of four types of renewable energy: solar, wind, geothermal, and hydroelectric energy. The presentation is the culmination of students' ability to collaborate in understanding the overall objectives of the unit.
