Please note this article is our perception and our story as we guide and help our children through this wondrous life. There is no intent to disrespect our educational system nor the hard work and dedication of our children's educators. We deeply appreciate and respect the service and care that teachers provide on a day-to-day basis for our children.
During our son Elliot's grade school years, he had been identified as having a learning disability related to his reading skills. Because of challenges with his printing and fine motor abilities, he was given an Individualized Educational Plan (IEP) developed by his teachers. He was approved for working with the Core Resource support in his school and had an amazing experience working with the Intensive Support and Assessment Program (ISA) provided by our Canadian school system. Throughout it all, Elliot inspired us with his resilience, intelligence, and unique sense of humour.
When it came time for his annual parent-teacher interview, we booked the last appointment because we knew with Elliot's specific needs, we would need more time for review and discussion.
During our session with Elliot present, his teacher shared how she often encouraged him to come to her with any questions or needs. We reiterated to Elliot the importance of feeling comfortable when asking for help. Elliot said he understood and agreed that he would ask for support when needed.
Later in the interview, we discussed the issues around Elliot's organizational skills. The teacher had paired him with a classmate who was very organized. She felt this classmate could help model good organizational skills for Elliot. As I listened, an uncomfortable feeling welled up within me. How could observing a very organized peer help Elliot improve his skills? I wondered. Since he had not learned to keep a tidy, organized home from my example, how could he possibly learn from a peer? Thinking, Well, she is a trained school teacher, she probably knows better how to handle this situation at school, I tucked my feelings aside.
As the school year progressed, Elliot worked with an Occupational Therapist at home to improve his fine motor skills and executive skills, including organization. Though we saw some gains, there was little improvement in his organizational skills, and he still needed consistent cues and reminders.
I found that my initial whisper of intuition had been correct. This approach was not empowering my son. Sitting beside an organized classmate did not encourage Elliot to do better; it only highlighted the differences between the two of them and brought up feelings of shame for him.
Over the ensuing weeks, Elliot revealed during family dinners that his teacher would dump any desks that were disorganized over onto the floor. We told Elliot that the teacher probably thought this would help kids learn how to organize. He said he didn't feel it was a good thing because he felt embarrassed and didn't trust the teacher.
One day as I was parked outside waiting to pick the kids up from school, Elliot seemed to be taking a longer time than usual to come out. After five minutes had passed since the last child left the school, I started to get concerned that there was something wrong. It was not uncommon for Elliot to take longer than most, but this was much longer than usual. With the school doors locked, I started to walk around outside and looked in through a window to see if I could make sense of what was going on. A few minutes later I saw Elliot through the window, slowly coming down the stairs, crying, with his head down and without his coat. I knew something was up. I took a deep breath before he opened the door.
I asked him what was wrong. He spoke garbled words, without making much sense. The next thing I did was to give him a hug. He then pulled me back into the school. Once inside, I crouched down to his level, took some time and waited for him to calm down. I consciously wanted to show him I was paying attention by stopping, facing my body towards him, and looking him in the eye. I wanted him to know that I was not being distracted by anything else and that I was taking this very seriously.
As we slowly walked down the hallway to his classroom, Elliot shared a little more, and I began to understand the situation better. He said that he could not find the project on which he had been working. It was not in his desk where he'd left it. Explaining the situation to me, Elliot seemed to gain some composure.
I know that as my son grows up he will have to deal with situations that he finds difficult, and he will have to learn strategies to deal with those situations in his life. One of the hardest things about being a parent is in being able to step back and not fight our children's battles for them.
Take a step back. We know our focus is to support our child at home. Our focus is not to try to change the teacher`s perspective of our son. She is doing her best within a system that expects children to fit into a box. In our opinion, the system does not allow children to find their own way to the answer. It sets clear lines as to what is considered right and wrong. We have decided consciously to connect with our children by letting them know they are heard and supported while we guide them to the best of our abilities to manage the challenges they experience.
Emphasize the strengths and support the challenges. What is important to both of us is to support our son to work on the things that he needs to work on as well as focus on the things that he does well. From our perspective, the current school system seems to stress the deficiency. Our world needs our unique gifts and differences to create balance and harmony – we all can't be good at the same thing. We need the accountants and lawyers, just as much as we need the artists and teachers. It affects the self-esteem of our youth when we expect every child to sit quietly, be neat, and don't say a word while the teacher talks.
Take personal responsibility. Both of our kids don`t seem to appreciate school at this time in their lives and often emphasize it's negative aspects. We stress that learning how to read, write, and understand arithmetic is very important. Canada's open educational system is a blessing, and we encourage them to find gratitude for that. However, we also acknowledge our belief that the definition of success is not solely about academic success. When our children face a challenge at school, we always bring the conversation back to self-responsibility, i.e., What can you learn from this? How do you feel? How can you do better for yourself? We believe that teaching self-responsibility will empower our children to take action in situations when they can, as well as decrease the victim mentality on issues that they have no control over.
Trust our intuitive feelings and advocate for the good of our child. We trust we know what our child needs and we know when it is time to advocate or when to step back. Living consciously helps us to know when an issue concerning our children has "triggered" us emotionally, and when we are reacting to "our stuff" and not their situation. Reacting and pointing fingers won't help them. We do our best to look at the situation, and if "our stuff" comes up, we work through it. However, if it is in our children's best interest to bring up an issue with their teacher or school, we will follow through with that guidance.

Since my girls didn't have their Wish List organized by Black Friday I didn't feel like roaming the malls and knew I could find good deals another day. I've never been one to stand in line for the insane early bird deals, too stressful. My mom and I would head out around 7:00 or 8:00 am, like civilized crazy shoppers, and join the masses in the parking lots.
Every year we would do our best not to get angry at someone who made a poor choice like; taking a parking spot that we had been waiting for or, taking the whole stack of towels or board games and dumping them in their cart while we stood watching with our mouths open at the GALL of taking them all. Did they really need all of those games?

Hurricane Manuel hits Mexico; dozens missing after mudslide
Mariano Castillo and Catherine E. Shoichet, CNN
Updated 10:12 AM EDT, Thu September 19, 2013
NEW: Mexico's president describes the damage as "catastrophic"
NEW: At least 58 people are missing in a community hit by a mudslide
Interior ministry: Rains from storms have killed at least 80
Manuel has strengthened into a hurricane

Dozens of people are missing after a mudslide that buried homes as Manuel pounded the country's Pacific Coast, Mexico's president said Wednesday.
At least 58 people are unaccounted for in the municipality of Atoyac de Alvarez, Mexican Pesident Enrique Peña Nieto told reporters Wednesday, describing damage there as "catastrophic."
The mayor of Atoyac, which is about 50 miles west of Acapulco, told CNNMexico that 15 bodies had been recovered and at least 70 people remained trapped under mud that buried 20 homes.
Peña Nieto said hundreds of people have been rescued from La Pintada, the community in Atoyac hit by the mudslide. It's unclear how many people remain buried, he said.
Manuel, which strengthened into a hurricane Wednesday evening, was one of three storms bringing devastating deluges and flooding to Mexico. At least 80 people were killed in the storms, Mexico's interior ministry said.
In the Pacific resort city of Acapulco, thousands of tourists were stranded.

Storms slam Mexico
"Unfortunately, this took us by surprise," Veronica Garcia told CNN en Español. "It rained uncontrollably. The streets flooded, and we had to stay inside our beach house."
Garcia said her family was stuck on the home's second floor because of flooding. As if that wasn't enough, they had to face an agonizing decision: Who should be rescued?
The Garcias were among some 40,000 tourists left stranded or cut off by weather that has claimed dozens of lives during a holiday weekend.
As the water rose, Garcia and her four family members waited nervously on the upper floor for help, but no rescuers appeared to whisk them to safety.
When local volunteers finally arrived with a small kayak, their relief was short-lived. Rescuers said the boat would only fit two family members.
It was decided that Garcia would be rescued, along with one of her sons.
A second round of agony followed as Garcia spent two days in a shelter before the rest of her family was rescued and everyone was reunited.
The Garcias' story was only one of countless examples of tourists whose vacations were interrupted by severe weather. Mexico was being pummeled from nearly all sides Wednesday as Manuel, the remnants of Hurricane Ingrid and a new area of low pressure threatened most of the country with flooding or rain.
Mexico's interior ministry said Wednesday that the storms are responsible for at least 80 deaths nationwide.
And a state-by-state tally indicates the toll could be higher.
In Guerrero state, where Acapulco is located, officials said at least 72 people were killed.

Heavy rains and widespread flooding from Manuel there caused mudslides that cut off highways and buried homes, Acapulco Mayor Luis Walton told CNN en Español Tuesday night.
"Acapulco is practically incommunicado," he said.
On Wednesday, the rain eased and rescue operations and evacuations of tourists quickened.
Manuel strengthened into a hurricane Wednesday evening and, as of 8 p.m. (11 p.m. ET), was churning with maximum sustained winds of 75 mph about 5 miles (8 km) southwest of the Pacific coastal city of Altata, Mexico, the National Hurricane Center said.
Manuel is expected to produce 5 to 10 inches of rain over the state of Sinaloa, forecasters predicted.
While Manuel cast a shadow over the Pacific Coast, a low pressure area on the Gulf side – the remnants of Ingrid – continued to batter the coastal states of Tamaulipas and Veracruz.
Residents there sent photos to CNN showing streets that looked like rivers, with the tops of cars sticking out of the flood waters.
And to the south, over the Yucatan Peninsula, another area of low pressure had a 70% chance of becoming a tropical cyclone within 48 hours, the National Hurricane Center said.
More than 1 million residents across Mexico have been affected in some way by the storms, Interior Minister Miguel Angel Osorio Chong told reporters.
Acapulco airport operator Centro Norte Airport Group moved its ticketing process to a convention center because of flooding in the passenger terminals.
Several airlines were waiving fees and helping get passengers out as the airport began to operate again.
A break in the rain allowed some 2,000 people to be flown from Acapulco to Mexico City as of Tuesday night.
Mexico City resident Edgar Nava was one of them.
When he arrived in Acapulco Friday and asked about the rains, he said police told him everything was fine. But Nava told CNNMexico he spent four nights terrified and trapped by flooding in an apartment with three friends.
He flew out of Acapulco on a military airplane that evacuated tourists on Tuesday, leaving his car behind in the resort city.
"I never imagined it would be like this …. There is no way to take the highway," he said. "Later I will have to figure out how to come back to get it."
The Acapulco city government said some 40,000 tourists had been stranded in the resort destination. The government set up special hotlines to help tourists, and businesses were offering special discounts for those who found themselves stuck.
"The aid is flowing," Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto told reporters. "A large deployment (of resources) is being made specifically to the most affected areas."
The severe weather made it difficult for aid to be airlifted into the hardest-hit areas, but those efforts resumed Wednesday, he said.

Park rangers allegedly poison elephants to death as pay dispute 'protest'
Sam Fox
Poachers Killed Half Mozambique's Elephants in Five Years
Earlier this week, 22 elephants, including babies, at Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe were poisoned to death. The elephants were reportedly poisoned by the very rangers who were meant to protect them.
The staff at Hwange National Park reportedly receive extremely low salaries. In addition, they did not receive their already low wages when they were supposed to this month. It is feared and reported that the staff poisoned the elephants as a form of "protest" against the park's management.
Today, disturbing pictures have emerged online that show the elephant remains scattered along the ground after being mutilated for their tusks. You can see the graphic images here.
In the images, the elephants lay slaughtered and beheaded. According to inside sources, the park rangers did not receive due pay for the fuel used to pump the park's watering holes. In addition, they are notoriously underpaid despite risking their lives to fight off armed poachers. A source from Zimbabwe's National Parks and Wildlife Authority said:
"I am afraid there are serious management problems within parks. Some of the rangers are very dissatisfied with their remuneration and say that they are not getting some allowances they believe they should get. So many of us believe that some of the poaching at the moment is organized and executed by some rangers in parks, and we don't know how this will be sorted out."
The poachers in this incident apparently killed the elephants with cyanide. In addition to beheading the elephants, the poachers escaped the scene with three ivory tusks. The upsetting occurrence brings the number of elephants poisoned by poachers in Zimbabwe this month to 62. Washaya-Moyo said:
"We recovered 22 elephant carcasses in the Sinamatela area and so far we have also recovered 35 tusks. Initial investigations indicate that there was cyanide poisoning. We continue to lobby for deterrent penalties for people found with poisonous substances such as cyanide. We can't continue to lose wildlife at such a rate."
Last year, more than 300 elephants died in suspected cyanide poisonings. Washaya-Moyo said that the park's agency is hoping to bring in trained dogs and drones to help monitor the enormous wildlife park.

Christchurch mosque attacker changes plea
29-year-old Brenton Harrison Tarrant, accused of killing 51 worshipers at two mosques in New Zealand, changes plea to guilty.
Tags: New Zealand Christchurch
Arutz Sheva Staff , Mar 26 , 2020 5:32 AM
New Zealand police line
One year after killing 51 worshipers at two mosques in the city of Christchurch in New Zealand, the man accused of the slaughter on Thursday (local time) changed his plea to guilty, The Associated Press reports.
29-year-old Brenton Harrison Tarrant, an Australian national with suspected ties to far-right white nationalist groups, pleaded guilty to 51 counts of murder, 40 counts of attempted murder and one count of terrorism.
The killing spree was the deadliest in New Zealand's modern history and prompted the government to rush through new laws banning most semi-automatic weapons.
Tarrant was scheduled to go to trial on the charges in June. His change in plea came as a surprise and relief to survivors and relatives of the victims.
A sentencing date has yet to be set. Tarrant faces life imprisonment on the charges, according to AP.

More About More about Dulux
Flagship Human Cities project launched
AkzoNobel is helping to repaint one of Singapore's most historically significant buildings. The renovation of Burkill Hall – which will return the building to its original identity as an Anglo-Malayan plantation-style house – is the first flagship Human Cities project to be announced as part of the commitment the company made to the 100 Resilient Cities program.
Situated in the Singapore Botanic Gardens, Burkill Hall is believed to be South East Asia's last surviving example of an Anglo-Malayan plantation-style house. AkzoNobel will supply a full range of wall, wood and metal coatings for the project, which also includes the repainting of the nearby historic Bandstand.
"We are honored to be involved in a project which has such cultural and historical significance," said Jeremy Rowe, Managing Director of AkzoNobel Decorative Paints for South East and South Asia.
"Our Human Cities initiative is all about making meaningful contributions that re-energize urban areas, safeguard heritage and help cities become more inspiring and vibrant. The work we're doing in Singapore Botanic Gardens is a great example of what we're trying to achieve and is the first of several flagship projects linked to our 100 Resilient Cities commitment that we'll be launching around the world."
Meeting the challenge
Estimates suggest that by 2050, around 70 percent of people will live in cities. This will put big demands on urban areas and Human Cities is designed to help meet this challenge. It will enable AkzoNobel to use its key strengths and expertise to energize, inspire and sustain communities for generations to come.
Built in 1868 and thought to be the last building of its kind, Burkill Hall offers valuable insight into the development of residential architecture in Singapore. Given conservation status in 2008, it housed the superintendents and directors of the Botanic Gardens for nearly 100 years.

Can evolution be taught in Tennessee?
Does Tennessee teach creationism in public schools?
When did schools stop teaching creationism?
Is the Butler Act still around?
Why did Tennessee Pass the Butler Act?
Why is creationism unconstitutional?
Tennessee passed a law in 2012 stating that the teaching of some scientific subjects, including evolution, can cause controversy and that teachers can help students understand, analyze, and critique existing scientific theories.
Is teaching evolution banned in Tennessee?
The new Tennessee law does not ban the teaching of evolution as the old law had. Its supporters contend that it will allow the expansion of scientific views in the classroom. What it does do is allow doubt to be injected into areas of science in which scientists say there really isn't any.
Who passed the Butler Act?
The law was introduced by Tennessee House of Representatives member John Washington Butler, from whom the law got its name. It was enacted as Tennessee Code Annotated Title 49 (Education) Section 1922, having been signed into law by Tennessee governor Austin Peay.
public schools.
What was wrong with the Butler Act?
The act did not attempt to control the secular curriculum, and the need for breadth and balance was implied rather than stated. The grammar school curriculum was examination led whereas it was free and unfettered in primary and secondary modern schools.
Where is creationism taught in the US?
Meanwhile, in Florida, Indiana, Ohio, Arizona, Washington, D.C., and elsewhere, taxpayer money is funding creationist private schools through state tuition voucher or scholarship programs.
It followed that teaching the biblical creation story as a true account of human origins was out of the question. The Supreme Court put a categorical end to Tennessee-style "monkey laws" in its 1968 decision in Epperson v. Arkansas. In 1971's Lemon v.
When was the Butler law overturned?
The End of the Act The Butler Act remained the law in Tennessee until 1967, when it was repealed. Anti-evolution statutes were ruled unconstitutional in 1968 by the Supreme Court in Epperson v Arkansas.
Was the Butler Act unconstitutional?
On appeal, the state Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the 1925 law but acquitted Scopes on the technicality that he had been fined excessively. In the trial's aftermath, Tennessee prevented the teaching of evolution in the classroom until the Butler Act's repeal in 1967.
Half a century ago, on May 18, 1967, the governor of Tennessee signed the abolition of a law that had remained in force for 42 years.
When was creationism removed from public schools?
Under the law's terms, no school was required to teach either evolution or creation science, but if one were taught, the other had to be taught as well. The declared purpose of the law was protecting "academic freedom." On June 19, 1987, the Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in the case of Edwards v.
Is creationism still taught in American schools?
In the United States, the Supreme Court has ruled the teaching of creationism as science in public schools to be unconstitutional, irrespective of how it may be purveyed in theological or religious instruction.
context of the Scopes Trial Tennessee legislature had passed the Butler Act, which declared unlawful the teaching of any doctrine denying the divine creation of man as taught by the Bible.
How was the Butler Act repealed?
John Thomas Scopes. Thanks in part to a legal challenge filed by Scott to the constitutionality of the Butler Act, the Tennessee legislature decided to repeal the law, and the governor signed the repeal measure on May 18, 1967.
What was the monkey law?
July 1967. "Tennessee's 'monkey law' prohibiting the teaching of evolution in the state's public schools has been repealed. The law was adopted in 1925 and led later that year to the celebrated test case involving John T. Scopes, William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow.
Don Aguillard et al. Teaching creationism in public schools is unconstitutional because it attempts to advance a particular religion.
Are private schools required to teach evolution?
evolution in science classes. While most public schools are required by law to teach evolution only, private schools are free to teach either or both of these theories. Many private schools, particularly at the high school level, offer students the chance to participate in programs not found at most public schools.

Using the concept of Bregman divergence, we propose a new subgradient extragradient method for approximating a common solution of pseudo-monotone and Lipschitz continuous variational inequalities and fixed point problem in real Hilbert spaces. The algorithm uses a new self-adjustment rule for selecting the stepsize in each iteration and also, we prove a strong convergence result for the sequence generated by the algorithm without prior knowledge of the Lipschitz constant. Finally, we provide some numerical examples to illustrate the performance and accuracy of our algorithm in finite and infinite dimensional spaces.

.. _grab_response_body:

Processing the Response Body
============================

In this document, options related to processing the body of network response are discussed.

Partial Response Body Download
------------------------------

If you do not need the response body at all, use :ref:`option_nobody` option. When it is
enabled, Grab closes the network connection to the server right after it
receives all response headers from the server. This is not the same as sending a GET request. You can
submit a request of any type, e.g. POST, and not download the response body if you do not need it.

Another option to limit body processing is :ref:`option_body_maxsize`. It allows you to download
as many bytes of the response body as you need, and then closes the connection.

Note that neither of these options break the processing of the response into a Python object. In both cases you get a response object with a body attribute that contains only part of the response body data - whatever was received before connection interrupted.

Response Compression Method
---------------------------

You can control the compression of the server response body with :ref:`option_encoding`. The default value is "gzip". That means that Grab sends "Accept-Encoding: gzip" to the server, and if the server answers with a response body packed with gzip then Grab automatically unpacks the gzipped body, and you have unpacked data in the `response.body`. If you do not want the server to send you gziped data, use an empty string as the value of :ref:`option_encoding`.

You may be asking yourself why my illnesses and recovery would be something you need to know about. I am as certain as I can be that what I discovered accidentally during my journey of two and half years of illness does affect you, your loved ones, your family, your friends, and the entire population of modern humans on the planet. I still can't believe that I'm actually still here to be able to write about it. I hope you find my accidental discovery as profoundly significant as I do.
This is an actual true story about me as I became a patient in a nightmare of an illness, who got worse under medical care and who delved into her illness when doctors were unable to help her. It is based on my personal theory of why I got better when nothing the doctors did for me helped, but it is much more than that.
It is a warning that we are at great risk health wise for lack of an evolutionary hormone. It is simple to correct, but most of our preventive medicine from in utero until death does not address it or test for it.
I sincerely believe that 50-70% of all illnesses in modern life are due to one root cause. I hope my story will help you start to connect the threads and allow you to identify root causes of most illnesses you or your family and friends have. We have the science, but it is not yet in practice as my story will painfully illustrate over a period of 2 ½ years. This story has profound implications for health in modern times.

Finale Time! Louie 5.8 "The Road: Part 2 takes Louie (Louis CK) to Oklahoma City for a week in TV land (less than a 1/2 hour in our land).
Just the small moment of his girl driver texting while driving, and Louie's reaction was priceless. She never looked at the road. The header photo is how she was for 99% of that scene. He's rooming with just a disgusting perv in his comedy and out. Now Louie does have the capacity to be disgusting, but seems an angel after going on after this guy.
Created and written by Louis C.K.
After the scariest episode of Louie (or any show for that matter), ever, and one of the best episodes last week, what does Louie (Louis C.K.) have in store for us now that he's decided to go on the road? Awkward road experiences of course!

Victoria 3 Announced For PC After Years Of Requests
The grand strategy sequel has finally been announced
by Alexandria Digre
in Game News
Victoria 3 was finally announced to be in development by Paradox Interactive. Although no release date has been revealed yet, it has been confirmed to launch on PC via Steam, Xbox Game Pass, and the Paradox Store.
The game is set in the Victorian age. An era of railroads, telegraphs, steamships, and the campaign for women's rights. The world was being transformed by new technology, new philosophies, and new politics. Having been requested by the community for years, Victoria 3 might be one of the most highly anticipated games in Paradox's history.
Victoria 3 is a society simulator set in a time of great change. You'll need to track the needs and desires of populations, each having its own preferences. Though conservatives may resist any political reform as more people push for having a greater say in things. Also, satisfy the people's needs by trading goods on a global scale. Keeping a revolution at bay is in your best interest.
Victoria 3 Key Features
A deep societal simulation.
Tend to your national garden by educating and nurturing your nation.
Exploring the industrial age with scientific and social progress.
A sophisticated economic system allows you to import and export goods. You may also tax that wealth to further advance your plans.
Maintain a healthy diplomatic relationship with your neighbors, or provoke a crisis.
Make political deals and make voices heard.
A detailed and living world, with growing cities and expanding factories.
So if deep simulations are your thing, then Victoria 3 will definitely be a game you'll want to keep an eye on. Furthermore, if you wish to seek out other Paradox titles there is a sale on Steam right now. This might also be a great excuse to check out the previous Victoria games, which you can now get at 79% off if you get the bundle.
What do you think of Victoria 3? Does it look like it may live up to the previous titles? Let us know in the comments!

George Soros gives $500 million to tiny college
The billionaire's donation amounts to more than a quarter million dollars per undergraduate student currently enrolled at the school.

Billionaire philanthropist and left-wing megadonor George Soros is donating $500 million to Bard College a small liberal arts college in New York.
According to a Bard College press release, the grant — "which is among the largest ever made to higher education in the United States" — will facilitate "Bard's exemplary educational and social initiatives, establish the College's most substantial endowment ever, and set the stage for a $1 billion endowment drive." The college announced that it raised $250 million for its endowment and is seeking to raise another $250 million going forward.
Bard College President Leon Botstein stated that the gift marks the "most historic moment since the college's founding in 1860." Based on Bard's published number of 1,900 undergraduates, Soros' donation amounts to $263,157 per current undergraduate student.
[RELATED: 2+2=5? Bill Gates funnels $1 MILLION to push 'math is racist' narrative]
Botstein said, "Bard has played an innovative and progressive role in American education without any historical wealth; it will continue to do so with this new and highly competitive endowment, to ensure equity in financial aid, reform the relationship between higher education and secondary education, promote international education, and defend the arts, the humanities and basic science as the essence of the liberal arts."
The funding comes as part of Soros' Open Society University Network — a group that donates to universities around the world. Soros has donated a considerable share of his wealth to Democratic politicians and left-wing causes.
Affiliates of the school — including Bard history professor Gennady Shkliarevsky — have formerly criticized the school's leadership for its tight financial relationship with Soros.
[RELATED: Former Bard prof blasts school for 'selling out' to progressive bankroller George Soros]
Shkliarevsky argued that Botstein has led the school in constructing new amenities and expanding programs across the world — unsustainable efforts under the school's $300 million endowment. He suspects that donations from Soros will prevent Bard from being an "equal partner" with the Open Society Foundation.
Therefore, "If OSUN succeeds in using Bard as a vehicle to achieve the vision laid out in Soros' speech and currently implemented by OSF, the school's principal mission could become political rather than educational."
Campus Reform contacted Bard College and the Open Society Foundation for comment; this article will be updated accordingly.

What you stand for is what defines you
Conservative students on college campuses are marginalized, threatened, and silenced by threatening students who oppose their views, or radicalized liberal professors or administrators. Campus Reform—and readers like you—are pushing back. Progressives would rather threaten you with violence, silence your conservative views, or call for you to be "canceled" from our society if you oppose them. They say your views are dangerous, hateful, fearful, or racist.
They have it all wrong. What we stand for defines us—it always has.
We can no longer remain silent. It is time for conservatives young and old to unite as a single voice to boldly proclaim what we stand for and oppose the mob.
Will you join with us, select the principles you stand for, and sign your name below?
I stand for the preservation of free speech all across our country—where I'm allowed to express my beliefs without fear of condemnation if my opinion differs from yours.
I stand for protections for conservative students who are illegally being threatened or silenced on college campuses all across our country.
I stand for the federal funding to be pulled from colleges and universities when they silence conservative views or students.

Buy milk to get NFT reward of an NFL player
"Got Milk?" a promotion for one of the U.S. milk boards, has entered the non-fungible token (NFT) space. It has an existing partnership with multiple NFL players, three of whom are participating. Consumers will have a chance to win a signed NFT collectible of an American Footballer as an NFT by entering the receipt of a 32 oz purchase of milk on the website. The campaign is in association with collectibles firm Panini.
The "Got Milk?" campaign was launched in 1993 by marketing agency Goodby for the California Milk Processor Board. The project was an effort to encourage the purchase of dairy milk and, in its first year alone, increased dairy milk sales by 15 million gallons. The campaign is now operated by The National Fluid Milk Processor Promotion Board.
The NFT campaign seems to be an effort to showcase that the industry is modern and innovative and is trying to sustain milk consumption. In 2010, the U.S. per capita consumption of milk was 194.2 pounds per year. That number is expected to decline to 155.3 pounds by 2028. Got Milk? is not associated with any specific milk brand.
The future of NFTs as rewards?
Using NFTs as rewards is quite common, and some predict that it is how these digital assets will become integrated into our consumption habits. NFTs with multi-thousand dollar values might appeal to large niches but are not a viable way to become mainstream. Volatile prices make them more similar to investment assets versus digital collectibles with utility. However, NFTs used as rewards are much more appealing to the average consumer and have the potential of being a motivation for purchase.
Movie theater company AMC Entertainment and Sony Pictures launched NFTs as rewards for the advanced purchase of opening day tickets of their latest Spider-Man movie, and DC Comics awarded an NFT for every fan who registered for attendance at their online event. When it comes to sports, Mark Cuban's NBA team Dallas Mavericks is issuing NFTs for fans who attend games. And the NFL is managing a similar project with Ticketmaster where attendees of specific games are rewarded their ticket as an NFT.
