Biografia
Sposato con la ricercatrice linguista Robin Tolmach Lakoff autrice di The Language War
Sebbene una parte della sua ricerca riguardi questioni tradizionalmente perseguite dai linguisti, quali le condizioni sotto cui una certa costruzione linguistica è accettabile da un punto di vista grammaticale, Lakoff è famoso soprattutto per le sue idee riguardanti la centralità della metafora nella società e nel pensiero umano, nonché per descrizioni originali del processo scientifico della posizione centrale che esso occupa nella cultura dei paesi sviluppati come un punto di vista neutrale. Particolare fama ha avuto il suo concetto di "mente incorporata".
George Lakoff è stato tra i cofondatori del Rockridge Institute di Berkeley, che è stato attivo dal 1997 al 2008 come associazione no-profit per la promozione delle idee democratiche e progressiste.
La sua attività divulgativa lo pone ai vertici dell'attuale scenario accademico, con un D-index di 63 e quasi 200mila citazioni.

Rivalutazione della metafora

La tesi originaria di Lakoff sulla metafora concettuale fu espressa in un libro, scritto in collaborazione con Mark Johnson, intitolato Metafora e vita quotidiana (1980).

La metafora è stata considerata nell'ambito della tradizione scientifica occidentale come una costruzione puramente linguistica. La motivazione essenziale della sua opera è stata l'argomentazione secondo cui le metafore sono da considerare, soprattutto, come una costruzione concettuale, e in effetti sono centrali per lo sviluppo del pensiero. Lakoff afferma che "il nostro ordinario sistema concettuale, nei cui termini pensiamo ed agiamo, ha una natura fondamentalmente metaforica." Il pensiero non metaforico per Lakoff è possibile solo quando si parla della realtà puramente fisica. Per Lakoff, maggiore è il livello di astrazione, più strati di metafora sono richiesti per esprimerlo. La gente non si accorge di queste metafore per vari motivi. Un motivo è che alcune metafore "muoiono" e noi non ne riconosciamo più l'origine.

Ad esempio, nel dibattito intellettuale, la metafora sottostante è, di solito, quella della disputa intesa come guerra:

 Ha vinto la discussione
 Le vostre pretese sono indifendibili
 Ha abbattuto tutti i miei argomenti
 Le sue critiche hanno colpito in pieno

Per Lakoff, lo sviluppo del pensiero è stato il processo di sviluppo di metafore migliori. L'applicazione di un dominio della conoscenza a un altro, che offre quindi nuove percezioni e conoscenze. La teoria di Lakoff ha conseguenze importanti, se esatta. Punta alla rivalutazione completa dell'intera tradizione filosofica e scientifica occidentale. Ha applicazioni in tutte le discipline accademiche, e, in effetti, in tutta la società. Lakoff ha tentato di esplorare le piene conseguenze della sua teoria nelle opere successive.

Sulla mente incorporata

Quando Lakoff parla di "cognizione incorporata" (embodied cognition), sostiene che quasi tutta la cognizione umana, fino al ragionamento più astratto, dipende e fa uso di strutture concrete e di "basso livello" quali il sistema sensorimotorio e le emozioni. Pertanto, l'embodiment è un rifiuto non solo del dualismo cartesiano "mente v. materia", ma anche della pretesa che la ragione umana possa essere essenzialmente compresa senza far riferimento ai "dettagli implementativi" di fondo (pertanto Lakoff respingerebbe con decisione diverse formulazioni della cosiddetta "Intelligenza artificiale forte").

Lakoff è, con Rafael Núñez, il principale sostenitore della tesi della mente incorporata. Lakoff offre tre tipi di argomentazioni, complementari ma distinte, a favore dell'embodiment. In primo luogo, sulla base della neuroscienza e dalle simulazioni di reti neurali, sostiene che certi concetti, quali quelli di colore e di relazione spaziale (per esempio "rosso" o "sopra"), possono essere capiti quasi interamente attraverso l'esame del funzionamento dei processi percettivi o di controllo motorio.

In secondo luogo, sulla base dell'analisi linguistica/cognitiva del linguaggio figurato, sostiene che il ragionamento che si usa per argomenti astratti (quali la guerra, l'economia o la morale) è radicato nel ragionamento che usiamo per argomenti prosaici quali le relazioni spaziali (vedi metafora concettuale).

Infine, sulla base di ricerche di psicologia cognitiva e di alcune indagini nella filosofia del linguaggio, sostiene che pochissime delle categorie usate dagli esseri umani siano di quel tipo "bianco o nero" accessibile all'analisi in termini di condizioni necessarie e sufficienti. Al contrario, la maggior parte delle categorie sarebbero molto più complicate e disordinate, proprio come i nostri corpi.

"Siamo esseri nervosi", sostiene Lakoff, "i nostri cervelli ricevono il loro input dal resto dei nostri corpi. I nostri corpi ed il modo in cui funzionano nel mondo strutturano i concetti che possiamo usare per pensare. Non possiamo pensare qualsiasi cosa - solo ciò che ci permettono i nostri cervelli incorporati."

Una critica di Lakoff potrebbe essere che scrive come se avesse scoperto qualcosa di unico nel concetto della mente incorporata. Tuttavia, diversi studiosi hanno considerato la mente "incorporata", e le argomentazioni di Lakoff sarebbero rafforzate se facesse riferimento alle loro idee. Il fisico David Bohm produsse un'argomentazione simile all'embodiment nel "Pensiero come sistema". John Grinder e Richard Bandler articolarono questo punto di vista nella programmazione neuro linguistica, sebbene far riferimento a loro non aumenterebbe le credenziali accademiche di Lakoff.

Estensioni controverse alla teoria della mente incorporata

Molti scienziati condividono la convinzione che vi sono problemi con i temi della falsificabilità e della ontologie fondamentali che si propongono di descrivere "ciò che esiste" con un grado di rigore sufficiente a stabilire un metodo ragionevole di validazione empirica, ma Lakoff sembra scartare del tutto entrambe le affermazioni.

In particolare, in un'affermazione peculiare che estende quelle pubblicate in "La mente incorporata", asserisce che la falsificabilità di per sé non può mai essere stabilita da un metodo ragionevole che non dipenda, in definitiva, da un'inclinazione condivisa dagli esseri umani - che la matematica a sua volta è soggettiva alla specie ed alle culture umane: pertanto "qualsiasi questione circa l'inerenza della matematica nella realtà fisica è irrilevante, dato che non c'è modo di sapere se lo sia oppure no."

Lakoff sulla matematica

Lakoff sostiene che il modo migliore per capire cosa c'è veramente sotto le idee matematiche e filosofiche è considerarle alla luce della struttura della mente incorporata. Insomma, la filosofia della matematica dovrebbe guardare al consenso scientifico attuale a proposito del corpo umano come ontologia fondamentale - abbandonando tentativi auto-referenziali di radicare le componenti operative della matematica in qualunque cosa all'infuori della "carne". Questo ha generato qualche controversia.

Un esempio di idea controversa Lakoviana di questo tipo è che, quando si considera il significato della matematica, dovremmo rimanere agnostici sul fatto che la matematica, in qualche modo, sia intrinseca alla natura dell'universo. All'inizio del 2001 Lakoff disse all'AAAS, "La matematica potrebbe esserci oppure no nel mondo, ma noi non potremo mai saperlo scientificamente." Questa affermazione non è accettata da diversi studiosi: alcuni pensano che in realtà esista un modo per saperlo scientificamente, altri, la rifiutano perché implica che la matematica sia molto meno certa di quanto ci si potrebbe attendere.

La falsificabilità di questa affermazione è a sua volta una questione centrale nella scienza cognitiva della matematica, un campo che tenta di stabilire un'ontologia fondamentale basata sul processo scientifico e cognitivo umano.

Importanza politica

I campi della filosofia del corpo e gli ambienti politici del movimento no-global sono stati molto influenzati dall'opera di Lakoff, un'influenza paragonabile a quella esercitata dal suo collega Noam Chomsky. L'"applicazione della linguistica cognitiva alla politica, alla letteratura, alla filosofia ed alla matematica" ha condotto Lakoff in un territorio di solito riservato alle scienze politiche.

Lakoff ha espresso pubblicamente sia le sue idee a proposito delle strutture concettuali che ritiene centrali per la comprensione del processo politico, sia alcune delle sue particolari opinioni politiche. Quasi sempre discute delle seconde in termini delle prime.

Moral Politics è un libro che prende in considerazione le metafore concettuali che Lakoff considera presenti nelle menti dei "conservatori" e dei "progressisti" della politica americana. Lakoff tenta di relegare le proprie opinioni personali a una sezione posta verso la fine del libro. Non è del tutto chiaro se quest'opera sia più rilevante per le scienze cognitive o per l'analisi politica.

Lakoff sostiene che i partiti socialisti, o la "sinistra" dello spettro politico, mostrano interesse a quelli che chiama i "valori di sostegno" associati con la prudenza, l'educazione dei figli, la custodia della casa - in generale, con il sesso femminile - ma sono generalmente all'oscuro di questo punto di riferimento mentre i partiti conservatori, o la "destra", sono molto più capaci di sfruttare "il logos" ovvero il fascino maschile per la bellezza, la violenza, e la certezza morale. Sebbene questa tesi non sia nuova, essendo stata avanzata da Jane Jacobs nella sua opera Sistemi di sopravvivenza, Lakoff le attribuisce una forte influenza sulla politica federale statunitense, al punto che politiche identiche venivano razionalizzate in modi diversi per il pubblico di diversi gruppi di interesse. In modo analogo, le attribuisce influenza su affermazioni, che ricordano George Orwell, secondo cui l'uso del linguaggio nella politica del tardo Novecento rifletteva un tentativo deliberato da parte della "destra" di imporre le sue prospettive ripetendo idiomi e alterando i termini di riferimento nel dibattito politico.

In seguito ha mostrato il rapporto paradigmatico tra famiglia e schieramenti politici riconducendolo a due diversi modelli: quello del padre severo (conservatore) e quello del genitore premuroso (progressista). In mezzo a questi due convinti estremi egli posiziona i biconcettuali, che sono la porzione di elettorato su cui si può incidere attraverso una efficace comunicazione realizzata attraverso frame strutturati.

Lakoff ha diffuso un'analisi politica molto più succinta attraverso Internet. Un articolo così diffuso è Metafora e guerra: Il sistema metaforico usato per giustificare la guerra nel Golfo, dove Lakoff sostiene che le particolari metafore concettuali usate dalla prima amministrazione Bush per giustificare il coinvolgimento americano nel Golfo finirono o per oscurare la realtà, o per imporre un'utilitaristica manipolazione conservatrice sui fatti.

Lakoff ha ripreso e spiegato estesamente le teorie di Thomas Piketty sulla crescita accelerata delle disuguaglianze economiche e sulle metafore che sostengono questo processo reificate poi attraverso sentenze di "tribunali [che] hanno il potere di trasformare le metafore in fatti veri  e propri"

Automakers think they have the outside of their cars looking good. Now they are competing to create better interior designs.
The trend is driven by two factors, auto designers say. One is that people spend more time in their cars. The second factor is that people want the same high quality of design and materials in their cars as they have in their homes.
"Creating a better interior ambience is important because people cannot drive fast on today's congested roads," said Murat Gunak, Volkswagen Group's design director.
"People spend a lot more time in their cars waiting in traffic, so they have time to look around and notice the inside of their cars."
On the 2006 Passat sedan, VW has integrated the color and style of the instrument panel and door panels so they appear as a single unit that envelops the car's occupants. VW also is using better-quality materials and fabrics in the Passat.
Peugeot is working on interior design innovations. Owners of the new 1007 small minivan can pull out and change interior trim pieces such as the instrument panel air vents or the seat inserts.
"You can modify the interior to taste by replacing smaller trim pieces with different colored pieces," said Aude Brille, project manager for the Peugeot 1007. "Young people like to personalize car interiors that way."
Designers agree that lighting is playing an increasing role in improving interior ambience.
"Special lighting effects can improve people's feeling of well-being inside a car," said Stefan Sielaff, director of DaimlerChrysler AG's interior competence center.
DaimlerChrysler offers indirect lighting incorporated into the headliner on its Mercedes-Benz CLS, E and S class. The feature allows certain front interior lights to be dimmed without affecting the amount of light in the rear of the car.
BMW's 2006 7 series features illuminated strips in the door panels that make it easier to find switches. At the same time, the subtle lighting gives the car a more relaxed feeling.
To make interiors more comfortable, carmakers are replacing plastics with traditional materials such as leather, wood and fabrics on seats, door panels and instrument panels.
"Quality and craftsmanship will rule interior design," said Moray Callum, Mazda's design director.
Gilles Vidal, Citroen's head of concept cars, spoke of "tactileness and coherence of materials" as being extremely important.
But beautiful interiors will never become more important than eye-catching exteriors.
Said DaimlerChrysler's Sielaff: "Before potential customers can appreciate a car's interior, they first have to fall in love with a car's exterior design."

Question 1.
Find the odd one out and give an explanation for your choice.
i) Evaporation ii) condensation iii) salination iv) precipitation
Salination
Salination is the term used to find the involvement of salt content in water. It is mainly used to determine the salt content in the sea water.
But the evaporation, condensation and precipitation are the stages involved in the water cycle.
Evaporation: Water gets transformed into liquid gaseous form and it gets mixed to the atmosphere. This process is known as evaporation.
Condensation: It is the process which involved in bringing back the water to the earth surface which has evaporated to the atmosphere. The water reaches the earth's surface in the form of tiny droplets.
Precipitation: it is the mechanism or transportation process in which the condensed water is reached the earth's surface. Main forms of precipitation are drizzling, rain, snow, sleet and hail.
i)Tectonics ii) centrifugal force iii) solar energy iv) precipitation
Centrifugal force, solar energy, precipitation and effects of wind are factors affecting ocean current. But tectonics is the plates which are on the earth's surface.
• Centrifugal force: Centrifugal force is the outward force on mass when the earth is rotating. It is the force away from the axis, opposite to the direction of the gravity in the equator. It is necessary to keep the masses in a straight line.
• Precipitation: It is the mechanism or transportation process in which the condensed water is reaches the earth's surface. The equatorial areas receive the greatest rainfall hence the sea level is higher. This contributes majorly towards the sea level in the earth.
• Solar Energy: solar energy is the conventional source of energy which increases energy by the way of heating. Heating by solar energy causes the water to expand. And also the evaporation takes place due to solar energy and increases the salt content in the soil.
• Tectonics: The lithosphere is broken into a number of plates which is known as tectonic plates. These plates move slowly because of the movement of molten magma inside the earth's surface.
Correct the false statements.
a. Oceans trenches can be located near the continents
b. Relief features of the oceans are like plains
c. Most salts in the seas are washed into it from the land over centuries
d. The temperature of ocean water remains the same across the globe
(a) TRUE
These areas are the deepest parts of the oceans. The trenches are relatively steep-sided, narrow basins. They occur at the bases of continental slopes and along island arcs and are associated with active volcanoes and strong earthquakes
(b) True
Ocean relief is largely due to the tectonics, volcanic, erosional and depositional processes and their interactions. The ocean relief is divided into minor and major relief features. Major ocean relief is divided into four parts. They are Continental Shelf, Continental slope, Deep Sea plain and Trenches. Minor ocean relief features are Ridges, hills, seamounts, trenches, island arcs, submerged volcanoes and sea craps.
(c) True
Most of the salt in the ocean water is because of the rainwater discharged from the land. The rainwater is not in the purest form. It contains small portions of salts, particles and nutrients that make it salty. The surface run-off also comprises small amounts of sodium chloride or salts from the minerals thus depositing it in the sea. Since the rate of evaporation is higher in the sea, large amounts of salts are left behind which is again reinforced by the salts from the surface run-off making the sea salty.
(d) False
Ocean water does not always have a unique temperature in the overall globe. But they do not have major changes such as earth surface has, even these minor changes will show a great impact. The temperature of the ocean water varies from 2°C to 29°C. El-Nino and Al-Nino are the effects caused by the changes in the temperature of the Pacific Ocean. Even the temperature varies inside the ocean water when we go deep inside the ocean temperature falls.
Ocean current is the large masses of surface water movement that takes place in a regular pattern around the ocean. Those flows from the equatorial regions poleward have higher surface temperature and are warm current. Those flow from polar region to equatorial have lower surface temperature and are cold currents.
El-Nino is the ocean current which takes place in the Pacific Ocean. Warming and cooling are the most important in terms of general atmospheric circulation. The warm water of the central Pacific Ocean gradually drifts towards the South American coast and replaces the cool Peruvian current. Such an appearance of warm current in Peru is known as El-Nino. El-Nino is closely related to the pressure that changes in the Central Pacific and Australia. The change in pressure in Pacific is known as southern oscillation. The combined condition of southern oscillation and El-Nino is known as ENSO. The ENSO cycle brings both changes in global temperature and rainfall. Developing countries mostly bordering the Pacific Ocean that is depending on agriculture and fishing are severely affected by this ocean current.
The changes of El-Nino phenomenon have a major impact on the Southwest monsoon across India. According to the Weather Risk Management Services (WRMS) 60 to 70 per cent of the Indian weather is affected by the El-Nino in the Southwest region. It brings the rainfall in the South West region of India by generating warm current in the Indian Ocean. It also affects the summer of the Indian climate. Over the Indian subcontinent, EL-Nino during the winter results in the development of the warm condition. During summer, it leads to dry condition and defiant monsoon. India experienced a deficient rainfall during El-Nino years 2002 and 2009 whereas the monsoon was normal during the El-Nino years of 1994 and 1997. In India, 50% of the years with El-Nino is occurred during summer, India experience droughts during monsoon.
Do you think the description of a blue planet is accurate? Describe any one way your activity impacts its oceans.
The description of the blue planet is accurate for the earth. It is said to be a blue planet because most of the surface is covered with water and hence it makes a blue colour. 71% of the earth's surface is covered with water and only 29% is land. Earth is the fifth largest planet in the solar system and third when compared to the distance from Sun. Earth is the unique planet which supports life for human sustenance. Water is the main reason for the availability of life on earth.
The ocean is the main water body which makes the planet earth blue. There are many human activities which have an adverse effect on the oceans, water bodies and ice glaciers. One such activity which has the most impact on the ocean is global warming. Global warming increases in the earth's temperature due to an increase in human activities. It occurs due to the climate changes that happen in the earth.
The average earth's temperature is increased due to global warming by the greenhouse gases. The greenhouse effect is the absorption and emission of infrared radiation and CFCs gases that are emitted by human beings on the planet. The atmosphere gets polluted and these gases get trapped in the ozone layer which will increase the temperature of the earth by depleting the ozone layer. The ozone layer is the layer which protects the earth from the harmful rays of the Sun. When the temperature of the earth raises the ice glaciers in the Arctic region and Antartic region starts melting and increases the sea level which is harmful to the earth.
In this way, human activity has an adverse impact on the oceans and earth.

King Leonardo and His Short Subjects
Culture > Television programs > Television series > Animated series > King Leonardo and His Short Subjects
King Leonardo and Odie Cologne
King Leonardo and his Short Subjects was an animated cartoon series released in 1960 by Total Television (which would later rename itself Leonardo Productions after the main character of this show).
The show focused on Leonardo, a lion, who was the inept yet well-meaning king of the fictional African nation of Bongo Congo, and his incompetent brother Itchy's attempts to overthrow Leonardo and rule the kingdom himself along with his friend (and leader) Biggie Rat, a gangster with an Edward G. Robinson-type accent. They were later both employed by Mr. Mad, a mad scientist with a domineering personality (easily cowing even the strong-willed Biggie) and his own nefarious plans for Bongo Congo, not to mention a creepy echoing voice.
Leonardo was assisted by Odie Cologne, a mild-mannered skunk (on the theme song he was referred to as "Odio Cologne").
Each half-hour episode of King Leonardo consisted of three segments, the King Leonardo segment, Tooter Turtle, about the adventures of a turtle who has a wizard lizard transport him to various settings only to realize he was better off at home, and Twinkles the Elephant. The main purpose of this segment was to advertise Twinkles Cereal, a product of the show's chief sponsor General Mills. This segment would be removed when the show was syndicated during the 1980s.
Leonardo cartoons were also sometimes paired up with The Hunter, a cartoon about a Southern-accented crime-fighting bloodhound who (while also behaving like Foghorn Leghorn including the Senator Claghorn jokes) often chased after an evil fox, on Total TV's more popular series Underdog. In addition,non-Total Television animated shorts were aired on the program which included The Fox and the Crow and Li'l Abner produced by Frank Tashlin for Columbia Pictures/Screen Gems.
King Leonardo and his Short Subjects was part of NBC's Saturday Morning lineup until 1963.
The animation for this show was produced by Gamma Productions, the same Mexican studio that did much of the work for Jay Ward.
The similar animation style and the fact that King Leonardo shorts have often been packaged with Jay Ward shows such as Rocky and Bullwinkle and George of the Jungle in syndication have led many viewers to believe that it is a Ward show.
King Leonardo never attained the popularity of Total Television's other series, Underdog and Tennessee Tuxedo, and is hardly ever aired on television today. As of July 30, 2006, the Black Family Channel is airing this show on it's "BFC Kids TV" block.
The characters of this show were also featured in an eight-issue comic book produced by Dell Comics and Gold Key.

Société Générale SA resolved U.S. trade sanction violations Monday by entering into two deferred prosecution agreements and paying $1.34 billion in penalties to federal and state authorities.
Paris-based SocGen -- the third biggest French bank -- admitted that it violated sanctions on Cuba, Iran, and Sudan.
The violations started in 2003 and continued until 2013.
SocGen paid a total of $1.34 billion in penalties to settle the offenses -- $717 million to the DOJ, $325 million to New York's Department of Financial Services (DFS), $163 million to the Manhattan District Attorney's office, $81 million to the U.S. Federal Reserve, and $54 million to the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC).
The bank also paid another $95 million to the DFS for anti-money-laundering offenses.
SocGen said in a statement it signed three-year deferred prosecution agreements with the U.S Attorney's Office of the Southern District of New York and the New York County District Attorney's Office.
The Federal Reserve cited SocGen's "unsafe and unsound practices" primarily related to violations of U.S. sanctions against Cuba.
The Fed order required SocGen "to implement an enhanced program to ensure global compliance with U.S. sanctions."
The order also barred the bank from "re-employing the individuals involved in the past actions or retaining them as consultants or contractors."
SocGen agreed to help the Fed and other agencies in ongoing investigations of individuals involved in the misconduct.
OFAC said SocGen voluntarily self-disclosed the sanction violations.
In June this year, the DOJ imposed a $565 million criminal penalty on Société Générale for FCPA offenses in Libya. Half of the penalty was payable to the French enforcement agency, Parquet National Financier.
Also in June, SocGen resolved U.S. charges that it rigged LIBOR rates. The bank paid criminal penalties to the DOJ of $275 million and disgorged $200 million to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
Frédéric Oudéa, SocGen's CEO, said, "We acknowledge and regret the shortcomings that were identified in [Monday's] settlements, and have cooperated with the U.S. authorities to resolve these matters."
"Looking to the future," Oudéa said, "we aim to be a trusted partner."

Home / Call to bring election campaign rules 'into the 21st century'
Call to bring election campaign rules 'into the 21st century'
The Electoral Reform Society (ERS) have said Facebook's move to make political advertising on the platform more transparent must be only the first step towards reining in the online 'wild west'.
The move comes just before a government consultation closes on whether to ensure online political advertisements – like printed ones – should have 'imprints' showing who is behind the material. The ERS are backing the recommendation in their submission this week.
Jess Garland, ERS Director of Research and Policy, said: "Facebook have made the right choice in opening up about who is paying for political ads online. But while this is a welcome move towards transparency, the internet remains an unregulated wild west of 'dark ads' with gaping legal loopholes. Government action is still absolutely vital and pressing.
"While printed political materials must say who is behind them, there is no such rule for online ads – meaning there's little to prevent foreign states or unscrupulous individuals and companies interfering in our political debate.
"The integrity of our elections cannot be left to the whim of individual companies. While Google and Twitter have made steps towards ad transparency in the US, for UK voters the internet remains a free-for-all where voters have no idea who is pushing an agenda or to whom. The UK's analogue-age election rules are a meddlers' charter that leave our elections vulnerable.
"The government's current consultation on online 'imprints' – which closes on Monday – means we have a chance to close some of the loopholes at last. Maintaining the integrity of our elections is fundamental to our democracy. Facebook's move to act before it is compelled to do so is a start – now let's rein in the wild west."
Facebook's changes mean voters will still have little information on why they are being targeted for a particular ad, and leaves it in company's hands to determine what is 'political' or what is 'fake news'.
The ERS and other democracy organisations are calling for:
An imprint for online advertisements stating who paid for them and published them
Checks by social media platforms to ensure those wanting to purchase political adverts during elections are based in the UK and registered to vote here
Greater transparency and monitoring of companies/trusts donating to UK parties and campaigns
A cap on the amount that can be given to a party or campaign to end the 'big-donor culture' and the 'arms race' in campaign spending
A comprehensive review of campaign rules to bring them into the 21st century

Manufacturers have significantly minimized their tablets to the least possible numbers yet LG has launched the new LG G Pad IV.
The specifications are decent and the pricing should make most buyers interested in going for it if they are interested in having a multimedia device for YouTube, internet browsing.
The LG G Pad III was the one that got launched last year and witnessed a decent outing among tablet lovers. At the moment, you can most probably go for an Apple iPad Mini or Air while Google's Nexus 7, Nexus 10 continues to be the most popular Android tablets in the offering. Samsung and LG continue to launch one or the other at regular intervals to keep the market consistent. The newest LG G Pad IV is powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 435 processor. The 1.4 GHz CPU is more than enough if you are simply going to play games, watch Youtube and browse the web on the tablet.
The 2GB of RAM used in the device seems like a bad choice as it will instantly bottleneck the overall performance. Even though, LG has made a conscious choice by using the latest processor, they should have at least gone with 3GB of RAM for the device to perform without slowing down easily. Reviews of the device is yet to be out but the specifications easily allow the average buyer to find whether it would suit power user expectations or is plainly designed for mid-ranged users who wouldn't open more than five apps at once. It comes with 32GB of storage space which is good combined with micro SD card slot to expand up to 2TB.
LG G Pad IV sports a 8-inch IPS display that offers great viewing angles and crisp color reproduction. The display has a resolution of 1920×1200 pixels. A 5 megapixel rear camera and a 5 megapixel front camera adorns the tablet which is purely for video calling. You are definitely not going to expect the best camera output because tablets were never originally designed to be as good as smartphones in the photography department. The overall weight of the device is pegged at 290 grams and thankfully it runs on the latest Android 7.0 Nougat operating system out of the box. It has 3,000 mAh battery.
In all their advertisements, LG has been marketing it as a lightweight device making it easy for students, kids and women to carry it around with ease. The device is priced at $305 approximately and has been launched in South Korea.

School nursing, a specialized practice of public health nursing, protects and promotes student health, facilitates normal development, and advances academic success. School nurses, grounded in ethical and evidence-based practice, bridge the gap between health care and education, provide care coordination, advocate for quality student-centered care, and collaborate to design systems that allow individuals and communities to develop their full potentials. A school nurse works with school-aged children in the educational setting. Students experiencing illness or injury during the school day often report to the school nurse for assessment. Administering routine medications, caring for a child with a virus, or stabilizing a child until emergency services arrive after a more serious injury may all be a part of the job requirements. School nurses are well positioned to take the lead for the school system in partnering with school physicians, community physicians, and community organizations. They facilitate access to Medicaid and the State Children's Health Insurance Program to help families and students enroll in state health insurance programs and may assist in finding a medical home for each student who needs one.

United States
According to the National Association of School Nurses, there are approximately 61,232–73,697 registered nurses (RNs) working in elementary and secondary schools (K-12) in the United States depending on the survey sample (- need these references: HRSA, 2010; ACS, 2013), which represents between 2.1 and 2.8% of registered nurses in the United States. According to the American Federation of Teachers, there are approximately 45,000 school nurses employed in the United States. About 63% of public school districts employ a full-time school nurse, while a further 19% have a part-time nurse and 18% have no nurse. School nurses are often the only health professional serving students in an educational setting. As such they have a great responsibility in promoting important health initiatives in schools across America such as making sure that there are AEDs on school campuses and that staff are taught on how to use them. Sudden cardiac arrest is common amongst school aged children and adolescents resulting in <1 to 10 deaths/100,000 population per year. This is thought to be in part due to the fact that inherited and acquired cardiomyopathies, arrhythmia syndromes, structural congenital heart defects, myocarditis, and coronary abnormalities that may be present in this age group may not be detected during routine sports physicals. "Since strenuous exercise can trigger deadly arrhythmias in these students, the first and potentially last symptom [of undiagnosed cardiac abnormalities] is sudden cardiac arrest".

School nurses must use evidence-based practice, implement prevention programs, and properly manage student medical issues in order to improve student health. For students with acute and chronic health problems, the school nurse will collaborate with the student's physicians and parents to create a health plan that accommodates the student while at school. The school nurse must be competent in management of pediatric health issues such as seizures, asthma, diabetes, and allergies. In addition to nursing skills, the school nurse must possess excellent organizational and communication skills in order to succeed. School nurses play a vital role in the reduction of absenteeism by promoting healthy practices among students and staff.

School nurses have the potential to have a positive effect on their young students. Previous studies have addressed their role as helping families address health needs, decrease the amount of absent days from school, and helping them advance academically (Yoder, 2019). Across the United States, the school nurse's role and workload varies, so that has an effect on whether or they are able to properly address their student's needs (National Association or School Nurses, 2016; Yoder 2019). The presence of a school nurse varies among regions in the United States. According to Willgerodt et al., most schools on the west coast work part-time and have a higher load of students to care for versus some regions that don't have a nurse in the school (2018).

Notable school nurses
Annie McKay, first school nurse in Massachusetts, 1905
Lina Rogers Struthers, first school nurse in the United States, in New York City, 1902

United Kingdom

In 1892 Amy Hughes was working in Bloomsbury Square as the Superintendent of Queen's Nurses. She was asked to visit a local elementary school to advise about nutrition. Hughes was surprised to find that the students were suffering with minor ailments that was contributing to school days lost to sickness. Hughes would in time arrange for Queen's nurses to visit schools. She is credited with being the first school nurse in the United Kingdom.

The statutory provision of school nursing in all schools in the United Kingdom arose out of the Boer War. A large proportion of army volunteers - between 40% and 60% - had been found to be medically unfit for service, so in 1903, the government set up the Interdepartmental Committee on Physical Deterioration to study the causes. In 1904 the committee reported back, saying that there was no general health problem, but treatable conditions had been left untreated, meaning that the conditions had worsened to the extent that they became debilitating. The committee recommended that:
children have medical inspections in schools
free school meals be provided to children from extremely poor families
mothers be trained in child upbringing

The government reacted first by passing the 1906 Provision of School Meals Act, which allowed (but did not compel) local authorities to provide school meals, at no cost to the poor, and to raise a tax to pay for this. Then the 1907 Education Act was passed, which established a team of school nurses at every local authority. This was accompanied by the 1907 Medical Inspections Act, which required local authorities to ensure that each child received a total of at least three medical inspections during their time at school. Although the act established clinics within schools to treat anything discovered, parents were expected to pay for the treatment themselves; after 1912 the government made small contributions towards the cost.

In modern times, school nurses are comparable to health visitors, but specialise in a school setting, rather than a domestic one. As such they normally take over public health responsibilities for children, from health visitors, once the children are over 5 and start attending school. Like health visitors, they monitor child development, and deliver certain vaccination programmes, as well as instigating the child safeguarding process when they suspect a child is being abused or neglected. Given their physical setting, they are also often called upon to provide first aid, and it is for this that they are most familiar to children.

In the mid to late 20th century, school nurses were often familiar to children as the nit nurse - a specialist nurse who inspects children's head hair for lice, and lice-eggs (colloquially known as nits). In 1947, 8% of school children had lice infections, but the use of nit nurses had managed to reduce that to 3% within a decade. Skin infections of any kind, which were once common, had become a rare phenomena by the end of the century, except those which affect the soles of the feet. Under the Blair ministry, nit nursing came to be seen as not being clinically cost-effective, and nit nursing was gradually withdrawn from schools.

Following the Cameron ministry's reorganisation of the National Health Service, school nurses fall under the general aegis of Public Health England, but are locally commissioned by local authorities, who now hold local responsibility for public health. To become qualified registered school nurses, ordinary nurses undertake additional training as specialist community public health practitioners. They are regulated by the Nursing and Midwifery Council.

Impact of school nursing on student achievement

Children who have chronic illnesses or live below the poverty line are more likely to end up dropping out of school. Two separate studies performed in 2017 looked at the way asthma medications were being managed in schools and found that nurses who assisted in daily corticosteroid usage resulted in less absences by children with asthma. Nurses in schools have the unique ability to create relationships with patients who they get to see frequently. Children spend nearly 40 hours a week in a school setting and need their health needs met just the same as if they are at home. If a child is able to receive their appropriate medications and services at school then they will be less likely to stay home and therefore achieve more academically then if their school lacks nursing services.

The future of school nursing

School nursing in the future is challenged to accept leaders responsibilities in shaping, developing, and implementing policies that affects schools and communities. Becoming part of school boards, public health departments, and community organizations, school nursing can affect change and highlight the impact of social determinants on health because, school nursing is where the effects of environments, school funding, and chronic health conditions on the health and education of children can be seen. According to the National Center for Education Statistics (2016), 98% of all school-aged children attend school each day. Therefore, health policies and health systems that affect these children, families, and communities must be changed on the school nursing and community nursing level. School nursing is an area of community health nursing where health initiatives can be implemented and policy change can happen on local, state, and national levels.

Understanding Opportunities and Barriers to Launching Social Care Initiatives in Medicare Advantage Plans
9am-10am PT/ 12pm-1pm ET
Recent federal policy changes have created new opportunities for Medicare Advantage plans to support social care in health care settings. Specifically, the Center for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS) final call letter and federal Bipartisan Budget Act's CHRONIC Care Act offer greater flexibility for Medicare Advantage plans to offer non-medical supports that may influence health outcomes. In this webinar, researchers from the University of California San Francisco and Brown University will present results from new research studies conducted with Medicare Advantage Plans that explore how plans have responded to the unprecedented federal policy flexibility around supplemental benefits. Speakers will present findings on new benefits as well as on facilitators and barriers to program implementation. The research presentations and interactive discussion about innovations in the Medicare Advantage program are designed to be of interest to practitioners, insurers, community-based organizations, policymakers, and researchers.

Japanese war planners had hoped to produce 40,000 new military aircraft in 1944, but the production rate was barely half that level in the fall of 1943. Aviation plants were straining under the pressure of material shortages, maladroit logistics, and a paucity of trained machinists and engineers. Shipping losses bit deeply into deliveries of Malaysian and Jakartan bauxite, the industry's chief source of aluminum alloys. The Mitsubishi complex in Nagoya had expanded steadily, employing 43,000 workers by the end of 1943, but it had turned out only 1,029 new Zeros in 1943, fewer than half the number demanded by the military services. The Japanese aircraft industry had relied to a disproportionate extent on a small, overworked coterie of talented craftsmen and technicians, and was never optimized for mass production. Belated efforts to introduce standard production-line techniques brought some improvement, but neither Mitsubishi nor the other major aircraft suppliers (Nakajima, Aichi, Kawasaki, Tachikawa, Yokosuka) managed to ramp up output fast enough to fill the military's ballooning wartime orders.
The image of the starving oxen pulling planes indeed captures so much of the tragic waste that was Japan's attack on the US.
Toll's book is really a narrative history of key military engagements, not primarily an economic or social history–but it's nuggets like this, along with digressions on topics like Hawaiian social history and shore leave in Australia, that help make the book continuously interesting and far from narrowly focused. It's vividly written and a marvel in clarity, no simple task given the mass of names and the obscure and complicated geography it covers.

Министе́рство торго́вли и промы́шленности — центральное государственное учреждение по управлению казённой промышленностью, надзору за частной промышленностью и торговлей.

Создание
Было образовано указом 27 октября 1905 года. В его состав перешли из министерства финансов учреждения по части торговли и промышленности и по горной части, совет по тарифным делам, тарифный комитет и департамент железнодорожных дел, за исключением отделений, ведавших финансовыми расчётами казны с железнодорожными обществами.

В состав нового министерства было включено также Главное управление торгового мореплавания и портов. Из министерства внутренних дел в новое министерство были переданы все дела, относящиеся к купеческим обществам, купеческим и ремесленным управам.

Министерству принадлежал ряд зданий в Санкт-Петербурге, в том числе по адресам: Мытнинская набережная, 7 и Адмиралтейская набережная, 8.

Министры

 В. И. Тимирязев: октябрь 1905 года -- февраль 1906 года.  В это время была упразднена должность главноуправляющего торговым мореплаванием; должность товарища главноуправляющего переименована в должность товарища министра торговли и промышленности, совет при главноуправляющем — в совет министра и т. д.; канцелярия главноуправляющего соединена с канцелярией при товарище министра финансов, заведовавшем делами торговли и промышленности, в одну общую канцелярию министра торговли и промышленности.
 М. М. Фёдоров: с 18 февраля по 4 мая 1906 года, временно управляющий министерством торговли и промышленности.
 А. А. Штоф:  с 5 мая по 26 июля 1906 года, также временно управляющий.
 Д. А. Философов: с 27 июля 1906 по 6 декабря 1907 года, министр. Менее чем через полтора года на должности скоропостижно скончался, до 30 января министерством временно управлял М. А. Остроградский.
 И. П. Шипов: с 31 января 1908 по 13 января 1909 года, министр.
 В. И. Тимирязев: с 14 января 1909 по 5 ноября 1909 года, вторично на должности министра.
 С. И. Тимашев: с 5 ноября 1909 по 17 февраля 1915 года, министр.
 В. Н. Шаховской: с 18 февраля 1915 по 28 февраля 1917 года.

Организация эвакуации промышленности в Первую  мировую войну

Ввиду приближения наступающих германских войск к промышленно развитым регионам империи (Варшава, Рига) в июне 1915 г. члены военно-технического комитета при Всероссийском городском союзе направили письмо министру торговли и промышленности В. Н. Шаховскому: «Совершенно недопустимым является дальнейшее сохранение в таких местностях, как Рига, Варшава и т. п., крупных предприятий обрабатывающей промышленности, которые готовят предметы военного снаряжения или так или иначе с этим делом связаны. Необходимо поэтому спешное принятие правительством решительных мер к переносу таких предприятий в более благоприятную обстановку глубокого тыла».

При угрозе захвата Варшавы в июле 1915 года из казны на эвакуацию оборонных предприятий было выделено 50 млн рублей, однако вывезти удалось только 85 предприятий.

25 июля (7 августа) 1915 г. был принят приказ по Двинскому военному округу о предоставлении заводам, изготавливающим предметы, необходимые для «государственных надобностей», права на вывоз из городов Двинска и Вильно во «внутреннюю Россию» заводского оборудования и материалов. За эвакуацию отвечал Штаб округа.

В Риге эвакуации подлежало около 500 заводов. Координацию работ поручили в июле 1915 г. начальнику Сестрорецкого оружейного завода генерал-майору А. П. Залюбовского. Командующий 5-й армией П. А. Плеве предоставил ему неограниченные полномочия. До 1 сентября 1915 г. из Риги было эвакуировано 172 предприятия: в Москву, Петроград, Нижний Новгород, а также в южные губернии — в Екатеринослав, Харьков, Донбасс, куда в основном переехали заводы металлообрабатывающего профиля.

Из прочих регионов из-за неудовлетворительной организации действий удалось эвакуировать лишь отдельные предприятия, а часть эвакуированных так и не возобновила производство.

Министерство торговли и промышленности Временного правительства России
С 3 марта 1917 по июнь 1917 года должность министра исправлял А. И. Коновалов. С июня 1917 по сентябрь 1917 года должность министра исправлял С. Н. Прокопович. С сентября 1917 по 26 октября 1917 года должность министра вновь исправлял А. И. Коновалов. Министерство ликвидировано 26 октября 1917 года.

Meet Red: a young lion who's filled with curiosity and loves exploring.
As Red started getting older, he began exploring more and more of his pride's territory. One day, the young lion ventured to the very edge of his territory. This ended up being a mistake.
Soon after Red arrived at the edge of the territory, a group of more than 20 hyenas approached him.
The hyenas surrounded Red, laughing in a way that almost sounded like they were mocking him. Red growled in anger, but he didn't move to attack the hyenas. He knew he was outnumbered and fighting them would never work.
For a moment, it appeared like Red wasn't going to survive this encounter with the hyenas.
Red continued growling, hoping he could scare the hyenas into moving away. But it didn't work—the hyenas weren't going to let him go that easily. With no other options available, Red tried attacking the hyenas, and he was able to bite one of them. But then the other hyenas attacked Red, and the hyena Red had bitten got away unscathed.
Red started getting tired, and he began fighting back less and less. The hyenas seemed to sense Red's tiredness, and their laughter got even louder. They were going to win this fight after all.
Then, in a movie-like twist, someone unexpectedly appeared to help Red: his best friend Tatu!
Tatu ran as fast as he could to his friend's side. Together, the two lions fought the hyenas. The hyenas quickly realized that even though there were more than 20 of them, they wouldn't be able to win a fight against two male lions.
The pack of hyenas retreated, leaving Tatu and Red alone to celebrate their victory.
Red and Tatu were so happy to see each other, and to show their affection, they rubbed heads together. Red flopped into the grass, relieved that he had made it through his terrifying fight with the hyenas.
Video of the lion's fight with the hyenas appeared on the BBC Earth show "Dynasties." The BBC also shared the video on their YouTube page. It quickly went viral, receiving more than eight million views in only one week.
YouTubers added tons of hilarious comments to the video, including this Youtuber's theory about who disliked the video.
Another commenter was amazed by the similarities between lions and domestic cats!
Red and Tatu did an incredible job fighting off a huge number of hyenas together. If you'd like to see the pair in action, check out the video below!


I'm living here with my uncle. It took me one year to go from Syria to Denmark. An agent helped me escape from Syria to Turkey where I had to walk 18 hours in the mountains. After that I took a bus to Istanbul where I stayed for 6 months. I tried to cross to Greece but kept on being caught by the Greek police. After 6 months I entered Greece where I tried to take a plane but the police caught me many times. I then walked to Macedonia and afterwards on foot across Serbia, Bosnia, Croatia, Slovenia, Italy, Switzerland, France, Germany and then finally Denmark.
I've been here a year now. I'm happy living here with my uncle's family. I would like to continue my studies here and study to become a lawyer.


A home race is always a special moment in an F1 driver's season, and Stoffel Vandoorne is no exception, with the McLaren driver guaranteed a warm reception from the Belgian crowd next weekend at Spa.
It's been a difficult season however for the 26-year-old whose performance has been subpar relative to team mate Fernando Alonso. For Vandoorne, the summer break was first and foremost an opportunity to enjoy a necessary reset.
"I've never felt more ready to come back after the summer break!", said the local hero.

Blu-Ray Review: Bong Joon Ho Collection
On the 19th of April 2021, Curzon Artificial Eye released the 7-disc Bong Joon Ho Collection on Blu Ray in the UK. The set contains six of the Oscar-winning South Korean director's films: Barking Dogs Never Bite (2000), Memories of Murder (2003), The Host (2006), Mother (2009), Snowpiercer (2013), and two versions of Parasite (2019), one being the theatrically released version and the other being a black & white edition. Each film takes up a disc each, with each version of Parasite having its own disc as well. The set comes in a sturdy cardboard box/sleeve, and a selection of art cards are included. Photos below:
Barking Dogs Never Bite (2000): A part-time college professor living in an apartment block is constantly bothered by the yapping of a neighbour's dog, and he decides to do something about it. Probably best described as darkly-comic, it's interesting to see Bong Joon Ho getting to grips with his visual style, with a scene of a janitor telling a spooky story about a boiler-technician being particularly effective. Definitely worth a watch.
Memories of Murder (2003): After a series of rapes and murders in a rural, small South Korean town, a task force is set up to catch the culprit, and the inexperienced local detectives must work with one of their big-city counterparts to crack the case. I don't really want to go into any detail about the twists and turns of the story, all I will say is that it is compelling, tense, and tinged with dark humour. For me, it is fighting with Parasite for the spot of Bong Joon Ho's best film.
The Host (2006): A man's daughter is taken by a monstrous creature which appears from a nearby river, and the film follows his attempt to rescue her against the backdrop of the monster's rampage and the government's attempts to subdue it. The monster effects look a little dated by now, but the film's style, comic undertones, pacing and visual flair more than make up for it.
Mother (2009): A mentally-handicapped young man who lives with his elderly mother is arrested for the murder of a local teenage school-girl. The film follows the titular mother as she goes about trying to prove her son's innocence. Again, I don't want to say too much about what happens and spoil any of the twists and turns, but like Memories of Murder this story of a small-town killing is compelling and satisfying. For me, it probably sits in the tier just below Parasite and Memories of Murder in terms of rankings.
Snowpiercer (2013): Bong Joon Ho's English-language debut, based on a French graphic novel, is set in a new ice age caused by climate catastrophe. In this new world, the survivors exist on the Snowpiercer, a train which is in constant motion, circling around the globe. On the train, the poorer passengers exist in squalor and labour at the tail of the locomotive, while the rich elite live in luxury further up the train. The film follows an uprising of the tail-enders, and their journey towards the front of the train. I don't think it's as good as any of the other films in the boxset, but it's still enjoyable enough.
Parasite (2019): I've written about Parasite briefly before in my 2019 list, so I'll just recap that here. In Parasite, four members of a poor family each become employees of a wealthy household by deceptive means, pretending to be unrelated and lying about their qualifications, in order to fraudulently receive substantial wages and pull themselves out of the underprivileged mire they find themselves in. Once well ingratiated with the wealthy family, events take an unexpected and dark turn. The ensuing carnage and surprises are best left untold, but suffice it to say, things get fairly wild. My favourite film released in 2019 (that I have seen thus far, anyway), Parasite is an interesting, energetic and nerve-jangling exploration of social class and structure. The black and white edition is worthwhile as well.
The Set Itself (Extras and Verdict)
In terms of the quality of the video and audio of each of the films, I have absolutely no complaints, it all looks and sounds great. Where it falls down for me though, is the relative lack of supplementary content and extras. First of all, there isn't any booklet along with the set, just the art cards which, while nice to look at, aren't anywhere near as interesting as a collection of essays and/or interviews would've been.
In terms of extras, there are some, but the distribution is a bit uneven. The Host has the most with more than ten, Snowpiercer is next with six, and Mother and Parasite have four each. That is being generous and including the trailer as an "extra" as well. The remaining three discs only have a trailer for each film by way of extras. While there is some nice content to be found among the extras that are included, it doesn't really feel like a great deal of effort has gone in to making this set a must-have, getting the kind of treatment you might see in a Criterion release or Arrow boxset.
Films: 8/10 (on average)
Extras and Overall Value: 6/10
All in all, this boxset would still be worthwhile for you if these are films that you want to see, and you don't already own some of them in their existing releases. I'd probably prefer it to be just a little bit cheaper, to be honest, but £45 or so is still not too bad for 7 discs. Not a "must-have", but definitely convenient if you have interest in Bong Joon Ho/South Korean cinema and don't own anything already.
Collection available to buy here (UK)
Note: The synopsis on the link above only lists the extras from the Parasite disc, there are extras also on other discs as well, as discussed in my review.
