This project series documents the expansion of the Art Gallery of Ontario (AGO) in Toronto from 1969-1974. The office identified the project as number 69006.
This project consisted of the vast expansion of the AGO that began in 1969, which largely came about due to a multi-million dollar donation from English sculpture Henry Moore. Most prominent in this project was the design and construction of the Henry Moore Sculpture Centre, a new gallery to house the extensive artworks of Henry Moore in the AGO's collection. This included $15 million's worth of art that Moore donated at the start of the project. The project was made up of two phases. The first included construction of the Henry Moore Sculpture Centre, the Sam and Ayala Zacks Wing, a link to the pre-existing Grange mansion, and updates to the art gallery's finishes. The second phase proposed additional updates to existing finishes. By the end of this project, the architects had also added a public lounge, dining room and cafeteria, a members' lounge, lecture areas (including the Henry Moore Lecture Hall), classrooms, and spaces for the gallery's special services. The work was further divided into 4 physical areas of the art gallery (A, B, C and D) and the drawings for this project reflect this division.
Before this work had been completed, a "Stage II" to the expansion had already been approved by the owners (Stage II is also included in this fonds, see AP018.S1.1972.PR08). In the documentation, this project was originally called the Henry Moore Sculpture Centre, Art Gallery of Ontario, Expansion Phases 1 and 2. However, as multiple stages to the expansion developed later on, this project eventually became known as the Stage I Expansion. While the project contract was originally given to John B. Parkin Associates, John C. Parkin continued the project under his new firm, Parkin Architects Planners, after parting ways with partner John B. Parkin in 1971.
The project is recorded through drawings, textual records, and mounted photographs dating from 1968-1986. There are numerous original drawings showing the design development of the new galleries. Two presentation boards show photographs of the project model. The textual records consist of correspondence with contractors and clients, inspection and other site reports, specifications, contract data, consultancy records, schedules, change orders, financial documentation, conference reports, area calculations, research materials, detail planning records, and project notebooks. Box AP018.S1.1969.PR01.007 contains an index to the textual records, which was created by the office. This project series also contains one box of textual documentation that spans across multiple project series related to the AGO expansion within this fonds (see AP018.S1.1969.PR01.044). This includes press releases, newspaper articles, project proposals and studies, correspondence with Henry Moore, meeting minutes and reports.

The more fresh ingredients the better. The greener something is, the better. Go with fresh deli meat instead of packaged, processed cold cuts. Try to avoid all frozen food. Go organic with fruits if you can afford it. I like to make a two-week rotating snack or lunch schedule. This makes buying cheaper and prepping meals faster in case you're in a time crunch. To reward my kids for eating healthy all week, I like to give them one day of unhealthy food/junk food in their lunchbox. This keeps them on track and motivates them to keep eating healthy!
A fun option when making lunch: have your child participate with you when you make it! I like to take my children to the grocery store or farmers market with me so they can pick out what they want. If you have more than one child, give them each days to be in charge. Cooking together is fun and sometimes a way to make kids eat something that they never would have tried before. Having them involved in the process gets them more excited to eat what's in there, even if it's super healthy!
Leana Greene, founder and CEO of KidsInTheHouse.com, the world's largest parenting video library, is an entrepreneur and mother of three.
Thank you for emphasizing the necessity for "staying hydrated." Thanks to my mom always giving me water when I was younger, all I do I drink water and I HATE soda! Cooking together is also a cute and great opportunity for bonding. When I have kids, I'll definitely remember to do all of this. Thank you!
Great advice, its true if the child doesn't pick out what they want for lunch, how can they enjoy it? And staying hydrated is a great tip too I think it should be necessary before and after recess.
when my kids were in school they would not allow them to bring a water bottle unless they had a note from the doctor saying it was necessary. I think all kids should have water at their desk.
Those are some good suggestions for back-to-school preparations. Getting the child involved in packing his/her own lunch ensures that he/she will eat what's in the lunchbox!
Great article! You can't stress enough the importance of hydration in kids and good nutrition to encourage good learning and growth. Kids need to go to the grocery store to learn where their food comes from and learn early to make healthy choices.
As a teacher I do not see many parents making an effort to provide their children with healthy choices for lunch. Most students either buy fast food or snack from morning till afternoon. I like the idea of parents packing healthy lunches and I have moved forward a little in doing so with my nieces. I also carry at least 5 bottles of water and an extra healthy snack box to share with students.
I always take my nieces when I go to the store and I agree that they love feeling involved. I ask them about the choices and what they think of the prices and they are very enthusiastic yet reasonable and I think the is builds decision making skills.
I agree with everything in this article #1 our bodies are made up of something like 90% water and it needs to be replenished. Not just in children but in adults too. I have seen too many people pass out or become ill due to dehydration. There are too many sports drinks out there with chemicals and sugars in it that I definitely do not want my son consuming and they are not as hydrating anyways. If lack of hydration is he issue and electrolytes are needed, I believe the healthiest option would be coconut water. #2 Healthy food is essential for everyone but, there are so many easy snacks that are tailored to kids that are extremely unhealthy even if they claim that they are. Parents need to read labels on what they are buying for their children in order to give them proper nutrition because what they eat during their growing years and during development can affect the rest of their lives. I do agree that organic is expensive but, we do what we can because being a parent is expensive in general. I like that you reward your children with junk food because it teaches them that junk food isn't bad just needs to be in moderation. If we tell our kids no you can't have junk food because we are saying no they are more likely to do it.If we educate them on proper eating habits it will make them have healthier choices for their entire lives. #3 I believe that having child participation related to food is very important. If you let them pick out the healthy option at the grocery store they are more likely to eat it because they picked it out themselves rather then the parent telling them what to eat. Also, having them cook with you is very important because as adults they will know how to cook healthy meals in their own home. I know many adults who don't know how to cook and because of it they eat out a lot, eat food out of a can, or from a box. The more fresh the food is the better it is for you and I would not want my son going out for the "quick option" just because he doesn't know how to prepare something. I am a parent myself and I think that more parents should be doing things like this because unfortunately the food that is served in the public school system is not fit for the active growing bodies of our children. Great article and I hope more parents see it.
You are absolutely correct on having your child participate.
I have found that giving my child a choice of two healthy treats allows them to pick a favorite and reinforces healthy eating habits.
nice article. keep it simple, healthy and fun for kids i think.
nice article,keeping children hydrated was always an issue in our schools,i like your idea of having them participate in picking and making better lunches,a good way to get them conscious about what they are eating.
nice website, very welcoming and clean. I also like how it promotes a healthy lifestyle for people that have to go back to school.
Very helpful information. One day i will be a parent understanding what a healthy child will need as they prepare to go back to school is hard. I had no idea that packaged deli meat is processed Thank you i will not be buying that anymore. to reward a child for eating the right thing is also new to me. i hope i can train them when they're young to make smart choices when it comes to food. Child participation seems fun i cant wait to have kids so i can do the cooking and eating together.
Like this post. Its really help me to prepare my for back to school. I can learn too many things from this post. Appreciate it.
All of these tips are great! They apply to both children and adults. Children are more prone to health problems and illnesses if they do not take proper care of their bodies. Water / hydration, proper meals, and physical activity are something that most of us need more of. It leads to health habits later in lifestyle which can help fight off obesity and complications which may result in Diabetes. It is never too early to learn moderation and to practice good health with a sound routine during the school year!
This great advice for LA Dads too. I always try to give my kids lots of healthy and fun options for lunch and snacks. My kids love to cook. We often cook in large batches on the weekends so they have lots of their favorites on hand for mid week snacks.
This stuff seems pretty basic, which is why it's so easy to take for granted. It's easy to chuck a few sugary snacks into their lunch, but then they crash in the middle of the day, and I can tell the difference when they get home (I work from home a lot). They definitely come in with more energy with a better lunch.
Yeah, health is wealth.. Awesome quotes Leana Greene. Keep on posting more something like this.
I think it is very important too keep your child knowing what is healthy to eat . Many kids this day in age grow up not really knowing what they are consuming because the parents many of the times don't think it is important for a child to eat healthy but they are wrong because your setting the child up too live a healthier lifestlye without the health problems they might one day end up with .
Great article. Good advice concerning staying hydrated. Often overlooked.
This was great I am always looking for ways to involve the kids. Taking the time to slow down and let them help in the kitchen especially when making lunch and getting them involved with what they are putting in there bellies is a great idea and investment in their health.
I completely agree that your kids need to stay hydrated through out the day. My kindergartner gets to have bottled water with him all day. My second grader only relies on the water fountain, and often comes home with a head ache because hes to busy to stop and drink anything. Also my kids love to make home maid desserts. Frozen banana, coco baking powder and a little milk makes a great treat for them, and i know exactly whats in it. Great post.
I like to read articles like this because it reigns true for everyone. I believe that if you start you child eating healthy while they are young then they will be more likely to do the same when they are adults. Great article.
I absolutely agree with the advice here. I would also add that parents should consider adding vegetarian options to the lunchbox. There are numerous studies showing how plant-based diets without animal products can improve health, both physically and mentally.
I think hydration is more important anything as the kids are not lazy enough to drink plenty of water..
Anyway all your points are awesome and very much helpful for the kids to stay healthy life !!.. Thanks!
Thanks for the helpful tips! I try to do most of the things you said. That's a good rule of thumb for the urine.
These healthy choices for back to school are really smart! I will tell my kids about them for sure. Thanks for sharing this!
Great ideas and so simple! Learning and enjoying eating healthy early in life is such a plus.

Interview with the Author: Gabor Maté
by Jennifer Matesa
We caught up with Gabor Maté while he was on holiday on Hornby Island, British Columbia.
Renew:In light of the American Society for Addiction Medicine's new definition of addiction as a primary disease, what do you think: Is addiction a disease or a choice?
Gabor Maté:Nobody ever wakes up and says, "My ambition is to become a drug addict." And even the decision—if you can call it that—to try a drug doesn't make you an addict. Because most people who try most drugs, even repeatedly, never become addict- ed. … The choice to become addicted isn't one that anyone ever makes. The real question is: What makes some people susceptible? Why do some people repeatedly do a drug and don't become addicted and some people do it once and become hooked?
Renew:Don't you think there are any people who become addicted simply because of repeated exposure to substances? One reader said he'd like to challenge you to smoke crack cocaine for four days straight, then not smoke it the fifth day.
GM:But if I smoke it on the fifth day, that doesn't necessarily make me an addict. What makes me an addict is if I then clean up and keep going back to it. Or if I never clean up.
If you took 100 people and gave them each five days of cocaine, only a certain percentage would become addicted. It only happens if they're susceptible.
Renew:What would the ASAM definition include, if it were up to you?
GM:It would recognize the generational component, and it would not reduce it to just a physical disease of the brain. It would include the psychological qualities that are present or missing in the addict including the emotional pain. And also it would include a much broader view of addiction. It should include a whole range of other behaviors [besides sex and gambling]: eating, shopping, any number of behaviors. It's a real step forward, by the way, this new definition. It's just too narrow.
Renew:More about this "generational component" you talk about: A lot of people recovering from addiction are also recovering from growing up in a family affected by addiction. Take, for example, a woman who feels guilty that both her kids are addicts, and she feels as though her alcoholism caused their addiction—
GM:It would be true. Her alcoholism did cause their addiction—or potentiated it. That's just a fact. But that fact and her feeling of guilt are two separate issues. And precisely the reason people sometimes have a hard time hearing what I'm saying is because they feel so guilty—they'd rather believe addiction is a genetic disease. Because at least that way, they're off the hook.
So I would say to that woman: You know what, you told me right—your addiction really potentiated your children's. There's no way to get away from that. But you're just a link in a chain. What potentiated your addiction? In other words, you're not a separate person. You're part of a multigenerational family system. And you're part of a culture. And you're simply transmitting what was transmitted to you.
Renew:Do you think addicts can truly recover? You're a proponent of harm-reduction for a certain percentage of addicts.
GM:The answer is absolutely yes. Precisely because we're not isolated human beings. It very much depends on a supportive context.
And if you talk to people who have made it, what was the one quality that was always there for them? Community.
As human beings, we're biologically- neurologically wired to one another's brains. If I were to adopt an angry expression and say something aggressive to you right now, your physiology would change immediately. We're wired together—they call it interpersonal neurobiology. So recovery very much depends on the kind of support that's available.
Having said that, I think that Twelve Step groups—there's certain things they leave out, which I think is too bad. I mean, I think they're great, which you know I say in my book. I support their work, but I think they're missing precisely this piece of where it comes from. They're very much caught in the disease [model] or choice or a combination. And they could promote more self-compassion than they do. It tends to be a bit of a self-flagellation routine.
Renew:What do you have to say about the scientists who are investing money into finding the drug that will cure addiction?
GM:No drug is going to cure addiction because the source of addiction is the brain's interaction with the environment. The healing has to be much broader than changing the chemistry of the brain. You might come up with a better drug to help people manage their addictions—like they've come up with Suboxone, and that's a step forward over methadone for some people. But all we've done is replace one addiction with another. Now that's a good thing. I'm not against it; it's harm reduction. But if we're talking about curing addiction? They keep looking only at the physiology, and they don't realize that the physiology reflects lifelong—including current—psychosocial experience.
Renew:I'm always curious why they don't scan people who have recovered and see what's going right.
GM:That's also an interesting question. But that's totally typical.
I was just saying to Andrew Weil [the physician best known for establishing and popularizing the field of integrative medicine] the other day that we always study the people who get better with our help or who don't get better with our help. But we never study people who get better without us.

Regular readers might remember that last year I got the chance to try out some skin care products from Rocky Mountain Soap Company - and promptly fell so in love with one of them that I was literally raving about it to anyone who would listen and I picked up a couple to include with Christmas gifts over the holidays. Because of that, I was obviously really excited to get the chance to try out a couple more products from the company and pretty stoked to see that both of these are pretty unique, in my opinion.
It's time to get serious. Made with pure volcanic pumice, this hardworking scrub naturally exfoliates even the toughest of skin, revealing the soft and smooth skin hidden beneath. Blood orange and cardamom essential oils will stimulate your senses and leave you feeling... and smelling, seriously good.
Every time I go to the beach, I find myself picking a nice spot where the sand is a wet and basically slowly digging my feet down into it because I love the way the sand exfoliates my feet. I tell you this because that's really the feeling that I get when I use this scrub on my feet, which is where I tested it. Before we get into the (literal) nitty gritty, I have to tell you... I absolutely love the smell of this scrub. It has a brightness to it that makes using it feel like a really sensory experience for me. I also noticed that it did actually hang around, living up to the promise of leaving e smelling good.
Initially, I wondered if this was really going to be able to do what I needed to it on my ever-problematic feet because the texture appears like more of a paste than a serious scrub... but let me tell you, this is aptly named. The texture of it is really fine, so it doesn't feel overly abrasive or uncomfortable to use, but those little grits are tough as nails and really get in there to exfoliate the skin. Giving my feet a really good scrub with this left the parts that are a little bit less problematic feeling incredibly soft while it went hard at the really problematic parts and helped to really slough away a lot of what needed sloughing. I think that if you were to pair this with the Rocky Mountain Soap Dry Skin Butter (over which I obsess), the pairing would seriously knock out those really dry, problematic areas.
Initially, I wasn't really sure what to do with this product... and then when I did a little reading about it I was excited to try it out because there is nothing that helps me relax my mind enough to fall asleep the way the smell of lavender does. I actually really strongly rely on it when I'm going through periods of anxiety that make it difficult to turn my thoughts off enough to fall asleep. Following the instructions I used this by applying it to my temples right before I was going to go to sleep and I really enjoyed the scent of it. It's heavy on the lavender, but it also has the added complexity and depth of the other oils that they included in it. I personally found it really lovely, subtle enough that it was really more peripherally noticable than overwhelming, and I do think it helped to do exactly what I rely on lavender to do in helping me sleep. For stronger effect, they say to rub it between your hands and then cup them over your nose and mouth to breathe it in. Personally, I don't think I need to use it this way, but it's worth mentioning. Overall, I'm actually really into this product, moreso than I initially thought I would be, and I'll continue using it for nights when I need a little bit of a helping hand to fall asleep.
I really, really like Rocky Mountain Soap products, guys. Personally, I prefer the products from the brand that are unique, which I think both of these products fall into, along with the Dry Skin Butter that I'm so obsessed with. I love when brands are doing something different and bringing out products that you can't just find anywhere and those are the ones that really stick out for me from Rocky Mountain Soap Company.
The Rocky Mountain Soap Company Serious Scrub* and Deep Sleep Wellness Balm* are available online at their website as well as in their brick and mortar stores. I didn't know that there was a Rocky Mountain Soap store here in Winnipeg - so if you're unsure, definitely check online!


Explore the captivating life of George Patton.
General George S. Patton remains a household name to this day even though he died decades ago. Not only was he a brilliant military commander, he was also a forceful personality and a flamboyant human being whose strong character led him through many difficulties.
This biography aims to tell Patton's story in a captivating manner that will bring him to life for the education and enjoyment of young and old. It will explore his many adventures, but above all, it will investigate who Patton was as a person.
So listen to this audiobook now if you want to learn more about the remarkable life of George Patton!
A thoroughly researched and well-written biography of this extraordinarily complex man. This author is an accomplished military historian who shows Patton in all his greatness, as well as his many contradictions, and his deep personal flaws.
Book was a biography of every facet of Patton's life. What I was interested in was details about his European campaign that the book never went into detail about.
Best book I've ever encountered. Patton was a larger than life man but he had a human side to him as well. This author brings Gen. Patton to life.
It is a complete biography of the best field general of wwII. A great companion book To Ladislas Farago's book "Ordeal and Triumph".
Patton from his roots through his death with ALL the facts in between. This author's research is unparalleled. His skill with words makes the account highly readable.
In this well written Biography he comes across as a caring and extremely able General. His tactical brain must have been probably the best in WW2.
Fantastic account of the life of America's greatest general. Packed with historical information as well as some of Patton's greatest quotes. One of the best WWII military books you will ever encountered!
After listening to this excellent book that described the journey of Patton, I would love to see a movie production of the early years up to WWI. The man was the second coming of Theodore Roosevelt and more so.
Forget almost everything you thought you knew about Patton. This is a very good book although the family history in the beginning is hard to follow. What a loser general Omar Bradley was. The G. I's general-nope; just a weasel.
Excellent book about General Patton's life and times. A great biography which is always fair to both General Patton and his critics without pulling punches for either side. Terrific book by an excellent historian.
My second listening of this book, very fey insight to the man responsible for success but at a high cost both to himself and his soldiers. But freedom comes at a high cost. We baby boomers are the recipients of the benefits.
I've read many books on Patton and this is one of the best books I've read. It's a long boom 800 plus pages filled with all kinds of information. i highly recommend this book.
This book by captivating history is the best biography about an historical figure I have ever encountered. captivating history research is deep and extensive, and the book is interesting and as readable as an excellent novel. I literally was fascinated, and couldn't put it down. I highly recommend it.
Great book, well researched and easy to understand, it keeps you turning the pages. Of course you must have an interest.
Loved it. Well written and very different from your normal book of this type. It moves along at a great pace in spite of its length. Warning--don't start it until you have a good afternoon for listening to because you won't want to put it down.
This book was fantastic and a must have for WW II history buffs. The general was a colorful character - a true one of a kind. This book was very satisfying in its detail.
It is very well written and offers multiple perspectives on his time as a General while offering historical context to his decisions. I am very pleased with the quality and information in this book.

Commentary – Mark Gerzon: Freeing Our Minds From Partisan Prison
July 12, 2016 / KGNU / Commentaries, Morning Magazine, Politics
What did the Founding Fathers' say about corporate money in politics? What did George Washington say about Internet privacy? What were Alexander Hamilton's views on GMOs or international terrorism? And what position did John Quincy Adams have on climate change, or on outsourcing jobs to China?
Mark Gerzon, president of Mediators Foundation, is the author of The Reunited States of America: How We Can Bridge the Partisan Divide.
Well, of course they had no position on these issues. They lived more than two centuries ago. But fortunately the Founding Fathers were wise enough to know that citizens of a democracy would have to learn. That is why Thomas Jefferson and the other founders believed so deeply in public education: they believed deeply that education was the only way democracy could renew itself in every generation Or, as the reggae prophet Bob Marley sang: "None but ourselves can free our minds."
http://objects-us-east-1.dream.io/kgnu-news/2016/07/07-11-16_Mark%20Gerzon%20Freeing%20Our%20Minds.mp3
The problem is: the multi-billion dollar avalanche of attack ads that threatens to bury us during this election year is not designed to fulfill Jefferson's vision. They are not broadcast in order to educate or empower us. On the contrary, they are designed to manipulate us. Their purpose is to make us angry and afraid so that we will take the "side" the ad creators want us to take.
Fortunately, we are free. We don't have to barricade ourselves inside a prison of pre-fabricated liberal or conservative "positions." We aren't limited to TV channels and websites that confirm whatever we happen to believe. Fortunately, we are at liberty to read any magazine or newspaper, watch any channel, engage through any social media platform and talk with a wide variety of people. All it takes is a commitment to learn. And the place where that commitment is born is in our public schools.
The report of the Campaign for the Civic Mission of the Schools, co-chaired by Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and US Representative Lee Hamilton, titled Guardian of Democracy: The Civic Mission of Schools (www.civicmissionofschools.org), argues that public schools should produce civic learners. The report explains why our most precious energy resource in America is not the coal in West Virginia, the natural gas in the Midwest, or the oil off the Gulf Coast or in Alaska. It is the civic energy of the American people. If we do not nurture and develop that energy source, the lights may stay on in America, but there will be no one home.
"We hope to give young people a deeper understanding of their responsibility as citizens," says Mabel McKinney-Browning, one of the key leaders of the Campaign. "Civic education at its best gives young people a sense that they can have an impact on their leaders and also make them more satisfied with their lives."
In college, students have even more power to get out of the jail of political uniformity. Away from home and surrounded by campus full of possibilities, all that is required is a personal commitment to adopt a diverse media diet. Today being on a predominantly "liberal" or "conservative" campus is no excuse. Any student can go to a wide variety of websites, such as Jonathan Haidt's Heterodox Academy. This website is a well-designed antidote to many college campuses, which tilt heavily liberal or conservative. Anyone who visits this cyber-campus will be assured of a wide range of scholarly perspectives.
Today, with a click on our computer, we can receive the news every day free of charge from multiple perspectives. Smart media choices can help us to strengthen our civic muscles and form a learner's mind.
In the 1980s, a high-tech whiz kid named John Gable realized that instead of freeing us to think for ourselves, the Internet was trapping us in ghettos of groupthink. "In the last ten to fifteen years the Internet overwhelmed us with noise," Gable observes. "So we pushed back. We created a 'bias bubble' around ourselves: we do everything we can to filter out people and ideas that challenge us and only let in what we already agree with. We begin to believe that people who disagree with us are either ignorant—or evil."
That's why this former Republican political operative created a start-up company called Allsides.com , which he now serves as CEO. He designed Allsides.com to "burst the bias bubble," as he puts it. It presents the news from multiple perspectives—left, right, and center—so that looking through different lenses become a natural part of our daily lives. "We created the political divides," he argues, "and we can bridge them."
His dream: to nurture a generation of American citizens who understand multiple perspectives and are able to think for themselves.
What difference might a civically literate generation make? Just listen to McKinney-Browning, the African American director of the American Bar Association's Division of Public Education. In the wake of mounting outrage about the deaths of African Americans at the hands of law enforcement officers, she recalls how vibrant civic education programs a generation ago brought police officers into high school classrooms:
"It gave the police officers an opportunity to engage with students and recognize students as individuals. It also allowed the students to understand the decision-making process of the police officers as well as the law. Research showed that it improved communication and helped bridge the gap and build a more positive environment between police and young people.
If we want a vibrant democracy, it is time to listen to these pioneers of civic education. From the classroom to the newsroom, the message is clear. We, the people, are more than voters. We are also learners.
Ultimately, that is how we "make America great again" — not by pretending that we know it all, but by asking tough questions and discovering the answers together.

When I woke up this morning it was raining so, knowing that the babies' orphanage would not be bringing the kids outside, I called Lienna to see if we could go to the children's hospital instead. She spoke to the director and was told that we were welcome to come. We met at the hospital at 10:00 and had to wait two whole hours before the director finally had someone take us to where they keep the abandoned babies. It was so worth it though because for the next 2 hours (an unheard of amount of time) I got to hold this sweet angel.
Doesn't that precious little face just make your heart melt??? This is Dashsa, she is 6 weeks old and she has Down syndrome. As I held Dasha, I thought about how different these first weeks of her life have been compared to most babies. There would have been no celebration on the day that she was born. Instead, one good look at her would have brought nothing but sorrow. Next, doctors and nurses would have begun telling her parents that the only option was to place her in an institution. I don't know if the mother was quick to give her up or if it was the hardest decision she'd ever had to make but either way, the decision was made and their tiny baby girl was whisked away, probably never to be spoken of again. Since then Dasha has most likely spent the majority of her time alone in her crib. As I held her today I wondered, has anyone ever rocked her to sleep or sung her a lullaby? Has anyone ever kissed her sweet little forehead or marvelled at her tiny little fingers? Has she ever heard the words, "I love you" or been told how beautiful she is? Has anyone ever dreamed about her future or stood over her crib watching her sleep because they just couldn't drag themselves away? This precious little angel, the Father's princess, has become like a treasure hidden in the darkness.
After leaving the hospital Lienna and I went to meet with the director of the special needs orphanage. Out of the three directors, she is by far the most open and worked with us to find a time that would fit both of our schedules. It was decided that I would come in the evenings from 6:00-7:00 to work with a group of girls aged 11 and older who are highly functioning. If it were up to me, I would have chosen to work with the youngest kids (what can I say, I love the little ones) or the severely handicapped children who never leave their beds but Lienna told me that she had the opportunity to work with this group of girls in the summer and that she really felt like God wanted to do something in their lives. Don't you love the way God works, that out of all the groups the director could have asked us to work with, that's the one she chose? Unfortunately Lienna is not available to come with me in the evenings but I am meeting tomorrow with someone who is and then hopefully we will start going there on Monday.
So, it looks like things may actually get a little busier for me here. Thank you for your prayers thus far and please continue to remember Thursday, the day we try to get inside the babies' orphanage, in your prayers.
Praising God for today's victories and looking forward with anticipation to what He will continue to do.
oh what a beautiful baby!! I just found your blog today through a comment you left about the Parliament vote.
What an answer to prayer! It is so cool watching the hand of God at work. I look forward to following your journey and praying for you.

Normalized Google distance
The Normalized Google Distance (NGD) is a semantic similarity measure derived from the number of hits returned by the Google search engine for a given set of keywords.[1] Keywords with the same or similar meanings in a natural language sense tend to be "close" in units of Normalized Google Distance, while words with dissimilar meanings tend to be farther apart.
Specifically, the Normalized Google Distance (NGD) between two search terms x and y is
NGD  ( x , y ) = max { log  f ( x ) , log  f ( y ) } − log  f ( x , y ) log  N − min { log  f ( x ) , log  f ( y ) } {\displaystyle \operatorname {NGD} (x,y)={\frac {\max\{\log f(x),\log f(y)\}-\log f(x,y)}{\log N-\min\{\log f(x),\log f(y)\}}}}
where N is the total number of web pages searched by Google multiplied by the average number of singleton search terms occurring on pages; f(x) and f(y) are the number of hits for search terms x and y, respectively; and f(x, y) is the number of web pages on which both x and y occur.
If the N G D ( x , y ) = 0 {\displaystyle NGD(x,y)=0} then x and y are viewed as alike as possible, but if N G D ( x , y ) ≥ 1 {\displaystyle NGD(x,y)\geq 1} then x and y are very different. If the two search terms x and y never occur together on the same web page, but do occur separately, the NGD between them is infinite. If both terms always occur together, their NGD is zero.
Example: On 9 April 2013, googling for "Shakespeare" gave 130,000,000 hits; googling for "Macbeth" gave 26,000,000 hits; and googling for "Shakespeare Macbeth" gave 20,800,000 hits. The number of pages indexed by Google was estimated by the number of hits of the search term "the" which was 25,270,000,000 hits. Assuming there are about 1,000 search terms on the average page this gives N = 25 , 270 , 000 , 000 , 000 {\displaystyle N=25,270,000,000,000} . Hence
N G D ( S h a k e s p e a r e , M a c b e t h ) = ( 26.95 − 24.31 ) / ( 44.52 − 24.63 ) = 0.13 {\displaystyle NGD(Shakespeare,Macbeth)=(26.95-24.31)/(44.52-24.63)=0.13} .
"Shakespeare" and "Macbeth" are very much alike according to the relative semantics supplied by Google.
2 Google Distribution and Google Code
6 Related Literature
The Normalized Google Distance is derived from the earlier Normalized Compression Distance. .[2][3] Namely, objects can be given literally, like the literal four-letter genome of a mouse, or the literal text of Macbeth by Shakespeare. The similarity of these objects is given by the NCD. For simplicity we take it that all meaning of the object is represented by the literal object itself. Objects can also be given by name, like 'the four-letter genome of a mouse,' or 'the text of Macbeth by Shakespeare.' There are also objects that cannot be given literally, but only by name, and that acquire their meaning from their contexts in background common knowledge in humankind, like 'home" or "red." The similarity between names for objects is given by the NGD.
Google Distribution and Google Code[edit]
The probabilities of Google search terms, conceived as the frequencies of page counts returned by Google divided by the number of pages indexed by Google (multplied by the average number of search terms in those pages), approximate the actual relative frequencies of those search terms as actually used in society. Based on this premise, the relations represented by the normalized Google distance approximately capture the assumed true semantic relations governing the search terms. In the NGD the World Wide Web and Google is used. Other text corpora can be Wikipedia, the King James version of the Bible or the Oxford English Dictionary together with appropriate search engines.
Properties[edit]
The following properties are proved in:[1]
The NGD is roughly in between 0 and ∞ {\displaystyle \infty } . It can be slightly negative. For example, "red red" gives about 20% more hits of Google on the World Wide Web than "red." (Mid 2013 there were 4.260.000.000 hits for "red" and 5.500.000.000 hits for "red red". Presently, "red red" now returns far fewer results than "red".) If the N G D ( x , y ) ≥ 1 {\displaystyle NGD(x,y)\geq 1} then we view x and y as very dissimilar.
The NGD is not a metric. In the beginning we have seen that the NGD is zero for x and y that are not equal provided x and y do always occur together on the same web page. From the NGD formula we see that it is symmetric. The triangle property is not satisfied by the NGD. However, these results are theoretic. It is hard to come up with practical examples of the World Wide Web using Google that violate the triangle property.
Applications to colors versus numbers, primes versus non-primes and so are given in,[1] as well as a randomized massive experiment using WordNet categories. In the primes versus non-primes case and the WordNet experiment the NGD method is augmented with a Support Vector Machine classifier. The experiments consist of 25 positive examples and 25 negative ones. The WordNet experiment consisted of 100 random WordNet categories. The NGD method had a success rate of 87.25%. That is the mean is 0.8725 while the standard deviation was 0.1169. These rates are about agreement with the WordNet categories which represent the knowledge of researchers with PhD's which entered them. It is rare to see agreement less than 75%.
