MUSEUMS, COLLECTING, AGENCY: A SYMPOSIUM
Partner Institutions: Institute of Culture and Society,
University of Western Sydney; Australian Museum,
Museum and Heritage Program, University of Sydney
The Museums, Collecting, Agency symposium explores questions of agency as
they relate to museum and museum-like practices of collecting, particularly in
connection with histories of colonialism and their legacies. In this it contributes
to lively engagements within museum scholarship on the role of objects and
colonialism. Advancing these discussions the symposium focuses on the question
of agency and its implications for understanding ethnographic museum collections
and collecting practices. Recent scholarship exploring the agency of Indigenous
subjects in the processes of anthropological collecting has de-individuated the work
of anthropology in the formation of ethnographic collections and anthropological
knowledge, establishing them not as the exclusive output of the European scientistcollector, but rather as a product of collaboration and contestation made in exchange
between anthropologists and Indigenous subjects. This symposium continues this
trajectory by turning attention to the range of human and non-human actors involved
in ethnographic museum collections. In this it seeks to investigate the ways in which
the agency of such collections come to be distributed across human subjects
and non-human entities, such as objects, tools, technologies, texts, theories and
cosmologies. Investigating the friction as well as the flows of their agency, this
symposium aims to explore the heterogeneous agents through which ethnographic
collections come to be assembled.

Metal Barns and Pole Barns in Wyoming
Barn Central brings you the best steel tubing structures that will outlive a pole barn. In fact, the term pole barn is more of a misnomer and people have been using pole barn to refer to all sort of metal buildings that are step down barns, classic barns, hay units, riding arenas, and even metal barns. While a pole barn has wooden poles buried inside in the soil, a metal barn is constructed on a flat/level foundation preferably concrete. The legs of a pole barn building are made of wood while the roof and the canopies are all metal sheeting.
A metal barn on the other hand is a tubular steel buildings with metal tube based legs every 4 or 5 feet apart. The legs are connected with a base rail and the roof is supported through a truss system that offers rigidity and support. A barn central building is known as a Metal Pole Barn – something that is super economical and can be installed on your level land for the price of materials of a traditional pole barn structure.
Why Use a Barn Central Metal Barn In Wyoming in Place of a Pole Barn?
While there are numerous advantages of using a Barn Central building, the basics of using steel for your construction over wood is one primary difference that cannot be overlooked. Wood has been used for centuries, but the last five to ten decades have completely been overtaken and overshadowed by steel. That is why countries import and export steel rather than wood, right?
Our steel buildings have steel tubing and framing, you do not have to worry about rot, deterioration, termites, mold, and mildew. While wood offers terrific aesthetics, nothing can beat the class of steel. Moreover, do you know that we prefer the 12 ga thicker metal as compared to the 14 ga for tubing purposes? This material is thick and can withstand severe weather condition and can have longevity even in case of less maintenance. While we know, you will love your barn, in case of a metal barn central building, you do not have to be worried or be taking care of the building every month. Regular cleanup to make it look shiny is all you need.
Many of our customers who were in the market for pole barns were surprised to know that we can build buildings that are more than 300 feet long and up to 80 feet wide without needing interior load bearing columns or walls. Isn't that fabulous? All you farm owners or industrial users who need a huge clear span space can now erect pole barn like buildings with huge clear spans. Our customers are always amazed at the strength our Prefabricated steel buildings have. Look, these prefabricated metal barns are connected with high-strength bolts and screws that hold tight, keeping the building straight and strong for years. On the other side, a structure that has wooden beams, is connected with nails and staples that loosen and pull out over time as wood contracts and expands with its ever-changing moisture content. This causes the barn building to shift, warp, sag, and creep. This can also cause water leaks, damaging your precious belongings, machinery, equipment, or hay in the building.
Maintaining a Metal Barn In WY
Steel buildings are practically maintenance free; wood pole barns are maintenance intensive. The wooden poles are buried deep in the ground, which means they will shift and eventually decay. As the foundation poles shift, a pole barn may have to be straightened every five to seven years, a process which can cost several thousand dollars. Many of our farming customers who have seen and born the maintenance headaches of pole barn buildings immediately recognize the benefits of a metal barn vs. a pole barn. Very less maintenance in the longer run…and when we say longer run we are talking about 30-40 years. Yes, that is how long a steel barn in your area can last.
I care about surroundings and mother nature. Is a steel barn for me?
Absolutely. Steel is the most recycled material on the planet. It can be recycled over and over without losing any of its inherent properties. Our metal barns are all steel and they are far more superior than chemically-treated wood which often cannot be recycled and can leach dangerous chemicals into the ground when dumped into landfills. Moreover, remember those nasty fires than are ferocious to gulp down entire farmlands? Steel is noncombustible and cannot add fuel to a fire. Wood framing is easily ignited and certainly adds fuel to a structural fire.
We Install a Metal Barn for the Price of Pole Barn Packages in Wyoming
Our customers love the fact that for similar pricing, installation crew from Barn Central will be putting up your building. Yes, delivery and installation are included! Our customers tell us that they had days of confusion trying to put up a pole barn because the pieces were not sorted or marked, causing confusion and delays. However, in case of our sturdy barn buildings, our installation crew will do it all for you. Just provide them all the electrical points, and a lift (for buildings above 13 feet height). They will make sure your building sis standing erect and you will see quality workmanship. You will not regret the decision to buy a metal barn rather than a pole barn building.
I need Permits for My County? Can Barn Central Help?
While you will have to pull your own permit from local authorities, we offer engineered drawings of our buildings at very affordable costs. This makes obtaining building permits quick and easy. Pole barns may come without professional plans or documentation and permitting is often difficult, and impossible in some locales.
Longevity and Value for Money
A pole barn is not considered a permanent structure. At best, they may last 15-20 years with expensive maintenance. On the other hand, our metal buildings last for more than two decades more than a wooden pole barn building. Our steel framing is guaranteed to meet or exceed all local building codes for the lifetime of the structure. A steel building increases the value of your property, and retains its structural integrity and value for decades. A pole barn is not usually even considered a property asset.
Metal Building Colors
We offer 15 colors for you to choose from for your barn building. Please look at our color planner tool or visit our pricing estimator. You can choose your roof color, trim color, wall color, and the wainscot color if you go for a two-tone building.

Kurdish protest against state harrassment in Belgium, March 2010.
The Socialist Alliance strongly condemned the raids, describing them as "a cynical pre-election maneuver and yet another attempt to sow fear and suspicion into the broader community".
The following statement was released by the Socialist Alliance's Senate candidate for Victoria, Margarita Windisch on August 20.
There is no doubt that these raids were well orchestrated to coincide with the federal election and to justify the existence of unjust anti-terror laws that are aimed to curb our civil liberties.
The Kurdish Association of Victoria has been around for more than 25 years, doing the same thing it has always done — promoting Kurdish culture and providing social support for the Kurdish immigrant community.
Suddenly it is suspected of terrorist-related activity, even though police confirmed that the raids were not related to a terrorist threat. Muslim and Tamil community members have also been subject to this outrageous intimidation by the state.
The Kurdish people are one of the largest oppressed ethnic minority groups in the world, struggling for self-determination and to end brutal discrimination.
We need to ask ourselves, why are they being targeted now? Maybe the Turkish government is putting pressure on Australia — just like the Sri Lankan government did — to stop community members from raising human rights violations taking place in Turkey.
If we are so concerned about terrorist activity and the need to protect civilian lives, Australia should immediately withdraw its troops from Afghanistan and end military engagement in Iraq. Australia should also cut ties with Israel and Sri Lanka, two governments infamous for their state-sanctioned terrorist activities and assassinations of opposition activists.

A: Instead of using routes, you can use a onGenerateRoute argument
void main() {
  runApp(MaterialApp(
    title: 'Named Routes Demo',
      home: FirstScreen(),
      onGenerateRoute: (RouteSettings settings) {
        return MaterialPageRoute(builder: (context) {
          if(settings.name == '/second/third') return ThirdScreen();
          if(settings.name == '/second') return SecondScreen();
          else return FirstScreen();
        })
      },
    },
   )
  );
 }

You can change this logic to any way that you need to use settings.name
To add another button on the homepage, for this simple code, you can use a Column widget, here's the example

We reported recently on the Supreme Court of NSW case dealing with problems experienced by Owners Corporation's in pursuing claims against builders and developers in the area of negligence (as opposed to any statutory right under the Home Building Act 1989) - Strata Plan No 72535 against Brookfield (Builder) and Hiltan (Developer) - the "Star of the Sea case".
In this case you will remember it involved a building that was found to be a residential complex and as such had available to it the warranties under the Home Building Act (HBAct). Well the Court has again looked at the issue of negligent builders in a building that does not have the benefit of access to the HBAct and come to the same devastating conclusion for owners - the Builder does not owe any duty of care to the Owners Corporation.
The Owners Corporation Strata Plan 61288 (the Owners Corporation) commenced legal proceedings against Brookfield Multiplex (the Builder) alleging defective work in the common property. It claimed against the Builder that the Builder owed the Owners Corporation a duty of care and breached that duty of care (the Negligence Claim).
The Builder relied upon the Star of the Sea case and said the builder did not owe the Owners Corporation any duty of care obligations.
The building was part of a stratum development with the strata scheme being a serviced apartment arrangement and run by a major management group. As such the Owners Corporation did not have the benefit of any statutory warranties of home owners warranty insurance under the HBAct.
The Owners Corporation alleged that the Builder and Developer owed it a duty of care (in negligence). It submitted that it was vulnerable because the ownership of the common property was foisted on it without any opportunity for the Owners Corporation to consider whether it should accept the burden or not (being a similar argument in the Star of the Sea case but on a different set of facts and assumptions).
In this decision (the same Judge as Star of the Sea) held that the Builder did not owe the Owners Corporation a duty of care. His Honour found that his reasoning in Star of the Sea was correct and that regardless of whether the Owners Corporation had access to the HBAct the Builder did not owe the duty to a party that it effectively did not have any relationship with.
Again, his Honour mentioned that this issue needed to be given greater judicial or legislative consideration as the concept of extending the duty of care to successors in title (an Owners Corporation in this case) should be resolved (but he was not will to do so).
The decision now cements the shoes of an Owners Corporation and throws them in the river. It potentially leaves an owners corporation with no rights to enforce poor workmanship or defective work against anyone and may (in the writers view) be used by unscrupulous developers and builders to do whatever they like in the construction of their buildings without fear of retribution.
"Residential Building Work" under the Home Building Act does not extend to cover all building work. For example, defects in commercial parts of a residential building and defects affecting lifts are not covered by the Statutory Warranties. How does an owners corporation claim compensation for such defects?
Owners Corporations of larger residential strata schemes (above 3 storeys) are excluded from some of their rights (in relation to Home Owners Warranty Insurance) under the Home Building Act.
Owners Corporations of commercial, retail and industrial have no rights against the builder for defective work.
If the builder and developer does not owe an owners corporation a duty of care, it would seem inconceivable that a sub-contractor of the builder would owe an owners corporation a duty of care.
How far will the concept be pushed, will certifiers, Councils and others involved in the construction/development also be excluded from any liability no matter how negligent their actions are?
Owners (and potential owners) should seriously reconsider purchasing into any strata scheme that does not have the benefit of the Home Building Act.
What should Owners Corporation's do?
As with a lot of these issues an Owners Corporation should not panic. The Owners Corporation should review their current position and consider whether this decision has an impact on any current claim or any potential claim. If it does then certain legal and other strategies will need to be considered. What the case does highlight is that Owners Corporation's need to obtain proper advice on their rights early and consider the statutory time limits more closely.
There is some hope that this latest decision will be appealed.
Are there services set aside for paper writing only? In other words, I am looking for a paper writing service that I can use to help me get my term paper together. I still have a lot of time left but this topic seems a bit too complex for me to try doing it on my own.
This reminds me of the recent changes in worker's compensation.
Are the rights of the average Australian citizen being taken away, piece-by-piece?

All the Organization of Federal Law Enforcement
Federal law enforcement… More than forty percent of all federal crook provisions were enacted due to the fact in 1970. This method that dozens of offenses that had been as soon taken into consideration as nation crimes now fall below federal jurisdiction. It is now not unusual for Federal law enforcement regulation enforcement corporations to paint intently with nation and nearby regulation enforcement corporations to convey federal criminals to justice.
From the formation of the oldest Federal law enforcement regulation enforcement organization, the U.S. Marshals Service, in 1789, to the reorganization of our nation's regulation enforcement corporations and the introduction of the Department of Homeland Security in 2002, federal regulation enforcement has passed through substantial modifications to cope with today's maximum substantial risks.
Federal law enforcement
According to the Bureau of Justice Statistics, federal regulation enforcement corporations are organizational devices of the federal government, and their precept capabilities consist of the prevention, detection, and research of crime, in addition to the apprehension of alleged offenders.
To date, the most important federal regulation enforcement employers are:
S. Customs and Border Protection (27,705)
Federal Bureau of Prisons (15,214)
Federal Bureau of Investigation (12,242)
S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (10,399)
There also are as a minimum 10 different regulation enforcement corporations which have a minimum of 1,000 officers.
Except for some impartial Federal law enforcement corporations, together with the Central Intelligence Agency and the U.S. Postal Service, and some regulation enforcement corporations of the Department of the Interior, consisting of the National Park Service and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the bulk of Federal law enforcement regulation corporations are prepared below the Department of Justice and the Department of Homeland Security.
Federal Law Enforcement in the Department of Justice
The Department of Justice (DOJ), a part of the federal government's government branch, is liable for the enforcement of regulations and the management of justice. The DOJ's finances in FY2012 turned into $26.eight billion, with $thirteen billion being allotted to its regulation enforcement operations and some other 2 billion for federal prisons.
The DOJ's FY2012-2016 strategic desires and goals consist of:
Preventing terrorism and selling the safety of the nation
Preventing crime, defensive the rights of the American people, and implementing federal regulation
Ensuring the management of justice in any respect levels
The regulation enforcement corporations administered via way of means of the Department of Justice consist of:
United States Marshal Service
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives
Drug Enforcement Administration
Federal Law Enforcement with the Security Department
Just eleven days following the terrorist assaults of September eleven, 2001, Governor Tom Ridge turned into appointed the primary director of the Office of Homeland Security. The passage of the Homeland Security Act in November 2002 signified the formal introduction of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), a stand-alone, Cabinet-degree branch that turned into designed to coordinate and unify all countrywide places of origin protection efforts.
The DHS is now a mixture of twenty-two federal departments and corporations, consisting of the subsequent federal regulation enforcement corporations:
Customs and Border Protection
Transportation Security Administration
S. Coast Guard
S. Secret Service
Law enforcement careers with the DHS consist of defensive the President and the Vice President; securing the nation's borders; offering interagency regulation enforcement education; and implementing the nation's financial, transportation and infrastructure components. The DHS additionally protects the nation's transportation systems, oversees lawful immigration into the U.S., presents prevention and reaction offerings for countrywide financial and protection interests, and presents reaction, recuperation and mitigation due to herbal and artificial disasters
The middle missions of the DHS consist of:
Preventing terrorism and improving protection
Safeguarding and securing cyberspace
Enforcing and administering immigration laws
Securing and coping with the nation's borders
Ensuring resilience in the face of disasters
The DHS encourages data sharing and collaboration; guarantees good enough plans and education to all place of origin protection and regulation enforcement partners; and allows the rebuilding and recuperation alongside the Gulf Coast.
The Department of Justice of the United States, now and then abbreviated DOJ, is in fee of many exclusive regulation enforcement corporations that paintings collectively to research and save crime within the borders of the United States. In different words, if a person commits a criminal offense in America, the DOJ is in all likelihood to research.
Jasmine is aware that the counterfeiting that she witnessed passed off with the U.S., so she thinks that the DOJ is probably in the fee. But there are numerous corporations with the DOJ, all with unique suggestions for what they do. These corporations consist of:
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms, typically referred to as the ATF, investigates the unlawful exchange and transportation of alcohol, tobacco, and firearms, because the call suggests.
The Drug Enforcement Agency, additionally referred to as the DEA, specializes in the distribution and transportation of unlawful tablets.
Note that the DEA and the ATF each have comparable jobs, however, the ATF specializes in the unlawful use of prison tablets and firearms, even as the DEA specializes in tablets that are continually unlawful.
Jasmine is capable of ruling out the ATF and DEA in her look for an organization to file to. The crime she witnessed had not anything to do with tablets, alcohol, or firearms, so she figures it truly is now no longer the quality vicinity for her to go.
But, there are nonetheless a few different corporations that are overseen via way of means of the DOJ which is probably right.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons is in fee of federal prisons. Prison guards, for example, are a part of this organization. But the counterfeiting crime that Jasmine witnessed does not must do with prisons, so she acts on it.
The Office of the Inspector General investigates DOJ personnel so that you can keep away from waste, fraud, misconduct, and different on-the-activity crimes.
But no person that turned into printing faux cash labored for the DOJ, so Jasmine is aware that she should not file it to them

Daniel Radcliffe Doesn't Tire of Being Harry Potter
It may get tiring being known primarily for the role that made your career, but if it does, Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is being very gracious about it. In an interview with Efe, he says acting for Harry Potter was a gift, stating:
Honestly, it's lovely. I think people expect me to find it oppressive that people are still talking about it, but there is a generation of people who grew up with us and that's a real honor. When someone comes up to me and says like 'you were a huge part of my childhood'…The idea that I could occupy that space for someone is, just, you know…amazing

According to his actor biography on the media news portal 24SMI, the now wildly famous and successful actor made his start when he was only ten-years-old! The first film he acted in was the 1999's David Copperfield, based on Charles Dickens classic David Copperfield.
Hope you guys speak Dutch, because here's the one official trailer for the 1999 David Copperfield film.
Then came his big breakout role, Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone, based on the J. K. Rowling book of the same name.

Ever since then, Danielle Radcliffe has found huge success, not only as Harry Potter, but as so many other characters, check out the top ten below!
Currently Radcliffe stars in a comedy series with Steve Buscemi, Miracle Workers, which is soon getting a second season.
Regardless of how many roles he's taken on, it's nice to see that Harry Potter still holds a special place in his heart.

Is Daniel Radcliffe the New Wolverine?
Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is known far and wide for his sense of humour, which shone in a recent 'Autocomplete' interview with WIRED in which he responded to some of Google's most searched questions about him. One particular question asked 'is Daniel Radcliffe the new Wolverine?' to which the actor responded:
"There's going to be a new Wolverine movie, in which it starts off with Hugh Jackman being put into a hot wash, and then when he comes out, it's me. So yes, I'm very happy to announce that here."
Radcliffe is frequently 'dream-cast' in the role of Wolverine, however nothing official has been confirmed since it was announced that Hugh Jackman would be relinquishing the role.

Daniel Radcliffe Shocks Fans With His Favorite 'Harry Potter' Film
WIRED hosted Daniel Radcliffe for an eventful Q&A session in which the Harry Potter icon finally revealed his favorite film of the franchise: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
"I love the last one, but I also really love the fifth, which is not a lot of people's favorite, I kind of realize," Radcliffe explained. "I love it because of the relationship between Harry and Sirius, and you get a lot of Gary Oldman in that movie."
While Order of the Phoenix was not as epic as its predecessor, The Goblet of Fire, or as nerve-racking as The Half-Blood Prince (You remember why), it is hard to argue with the fact that extra screen time with the legendary Gary Oldman has to be an actor's dream come true. Also, the Harry and Sirius relationship really was the saving grace of the franchise's filler-like chapter.
"That was my favorite one," He added. "Probably to film as well. We had a really, really good time making that one."
Going back to The Half-Blood Prince, you can grab tickets to a limited New York City screening of the film here.

Daniel Radcliffe Reveals Children No Longer Recognize Him as Harry Potter
The Boy Who Lived is not a boy anymore, and Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe is now approaching his 30th birthday. Though the magic lives on through the movies, the star reveals that children no longer recognize him as the iconic boy wizard. The generation who were once wrapped in the magic, spells and potions are now adults and the new generation no longer connects the name to the face.
Image via Quora
In 2001, Daniel Radcliffe first graced our screens with an oversized sweater and big smile, ready to take on the wizarding world. The eight-part film series followed the fictional boy and the actor on their journey through adolescent, unraveling the mysteries of Hogwarts and combating the infamous Voldemort. However, despite the world success of J.K Rowling's Harry Potter franchise, children are having a hard time recognized the actor who played the boy who lived. Radcliffe said:
I do have a thing sometimes where I meet kids now and their parents will bring them up to me and they'll be like 'this is Harry Potter' and the kids will be like 'no it's not'.
However Daniel Radcliffe is still in good spirits and is grateful for the opportunity that he was given and will cherish his time as the boy wizard. Daniel Radcliffe has shed his wizarding cloak and is now playing more adult roles. Based in New York, he performs in a new Broadway play The Lifespan of a Fact, based on a 2012 book the same name.

Daniel Radcliffe's Reaction to Harry Potter Memes Is Epic
Daniel Radcliffe appeared on The Tonight Show this week to promote his upcoming play, The Lifespan of a Fact and, unsurprisingly, the conversation shifted to the actor's popular role as Harry Potter. To Radcliffe's surprise, and audiences delight, Jimmy Fallon educated the British actor on the hilarious Harry Potter-themed memes circulating social media and Radcliffe's reaction was magical.
While the Harry Potter star admitted that he doesn't seek out Harry Potter memes on the internet, he has encountered a few over the years that made him laugh. Though the actor admitted that he didn't initially feel "cool" playing the character, seeing the affection audiences had, and continue to have, for his character has shown him that he was indeed a cool character to play. He admitted:
As a kid you're just insecure at the age [and] I never felt cool at any point playing that character, [but] sort of these things go like no, people thought that was pretty cool and it's nice.

The Redlands2030 Facebook page today comments "The Bulletin says Walker Group will appeal the Information Commissioner's decision that Redland City Council should release most of the 589 page Toondah development agreement to Redlands2030. This could delay for some time the community gaining access to important information about the Council's deal allowing Walker Group to build 3,600 apartments on public land and Ramsar protected wetlands. It's quite likely that Walker Group will fail to get Federal Government approval for this environmentally harmful project but the process could take years to be resolved. The quick way for this foolishly conceived project to be stopped is for the State Labor Government to decisively pull the plug".

My first career started a few decades ago in the classroom as a high school history teacher. While much has changed since then – including the use of technology and smaller class sizes – the one constant is the need for "reform" to improve our education system.
Ten years ago, politicians from the Left and Right embraced "landmark" legislation that was supposed to fix everything wrong with American education. President George W. Bush, with the help of Sen. Ted Kennedy, passed the "No Child Left Behind Act" into law on January 8, 2002, setting the lofty goal of having all children reach proficiency in math and reading by the year 2014. It is clear we will fall far short of this goal.
Despite the best intentions of No Child Left Behind (NCLB), over 80,000 children in Pennsylvania attend violent and failing schools where fewer than 40 percent of the students are at grade level in these subjects. According to the National Assessment of Education Progress, four out of every five students in Philadelphia public schools are not proficient, and a significant racial achievement gap persists in Pennsylvania. NCLB was supposed to fix these problems. So why did it fail?
NCLB embodied two ideas for reforming education – changing the rules and increasing the resources. Standardized tests and academic proficiency standards were implemented. But these rule-based reforms have failed to deliver the promised improvements in education.
It's not for lack of resources either. Pennsylvania increased education spending by 56 percent in the No Child Left Behind era. But again, there has been little to show for our investment: SAT scores have stagnated, state PSSA test exams show only minor gains, and NAEP scores have changed little.
The state of education in Pennsylvania is a state of emergency because rules and resource-based reforms fail to answer a very basic question: Why do we see a relentless drive for continuous quality improvement in nearly every other sector of our economy except public education?
The answer is incentives. We don't see the kinds of improvement we expect because our public schools lack the necessary incentives. The late Al Shanker, former president of the American Federation of Teachers, summarized this best when he said: "It's time to admit that public education operates like a planned economy, a bureaucratic system in which everybody's role is spelled out in advance and there are few incentives for innovation and productivity." Shanker added, "It's no surprise that our school system doesn't improve: It more resembles the communist economy than our own market economy."
Shanker understood what Harrisburg has not. We need incentive-based reform to spur schools towards innovation and excellence. When schools compete, they must respond to parents making choices, or they risk going out of business.
In the marketplace, companies don't improve simply because investors pour in money or the executives aim for high standards. If companies don't improve, a competitor will come up with a better way to serve their customers and take their business. In this scenario, it is the customer who wins, not the underperforming company. The opposite holds true in Pennsylvania schools. Without the right incentives, the most important customers – our children – lose.
How do we know competition in education works? Here's one example: School vouchers allow students to take public tax dollars we already spend on them to the school of their choice. Not only do such programs improve the learning of students who may come from failing public schools, but 18 of 19 studies show that vouchers also improve public school performance.
It is clear that schools do respond to competition. In Pennsylvania, family demand for spots in cyber schools has skyrocketed, with enrollment exploding from zero students a decade ago to nearly 28,000 today. In response, several school districts now offer their own online learning programs. Cyber schools, charter schools and scholarships funded by businesses are restoring opportunity and a future for children once left behind.
Instead of a one-size-fits-all system of education, we need to fully embrace an education marketplace where choice and competition is the rule rather than the exception.
Ten years of good intentions – with more rules and greater resources – have failed to dramatically improve our public school system. Only when we empower parents to choose the best school for their children will we truly give them greater opportunities rather than just good intentions.
Matthew J. Brouillette is the president and CEO of the Commonwealth Foundation (www.commonwealthfoundation.org), Pennsylvania's free-market think tank.
First of all I want to say that yes there are some bad kids out there that get a lot of publicity. I am 45 and I set arnuod and gripe about these kids just like everyone else. But I truly believe that there are even more really good kids today than there were when I was a kid (long time ago).They are dedicated and motivated to doing good things for others. They work harder than we ever did. I am a sponsor for a school organization here and I am responsible for helping them do fundraising. And believe me, I agree with you, I hate the constant selling. And my kids hate it too. We are going to do something that involves their labor instead of just selling things. We will use a lot of this money to help with certain charatible causes. The kids are excited about doing this.I am not going to get into NCLB. It is like all government programs, sounds good but goes to hell in a handbasket as soon as the bureaucrats get a hold of it. And yes, the teachers unions are full of it too. But you would really be surprised how few teachers actually beleive in what the unions say.So now that I have gotten that off my chest I guess I can get to the original point that I wanted to state. Yes, schools have learned how to selectively target cuts to get peoples attention. Just like all other government agencies, they know exactly which programs they can threaten to keep the funding for their own pet projects. Amtrak, EPA, Parks, they all do this every year to save their budget.Well this has been long and not very focused but I really do want to emphasize once again that we need to remember just how many good kids there are out ther.

Sidensjö is a locality situated in Örnsköldsvik Municipality, Västernorrland County, Sweden with 399 inhabitants in 2010. It is also a parish in the Nätra Court District.

History

In 1915 the parish comprised 39,416 hectares. By that time Sidensjö was a church district in the Diocese of Härnösand and the northwest deanery of Ångermanland. The parish of Sidensjö today includes 33 smaller villages and covers an area of 389 square kilometres.

On January 1, 1952 a joint municipality was formed from the parishes of Sidensjö and Nätra. It was called Nätra municipality and was included into the Örnsköldsvik municipality in 1971.

Sidensjö is situated by Lake Bysjön, 23 kilometres west of Örnsköldsvik in Ångermanland. Sidensjö houses 1,191 inhabitants (2004). At the beginning of the 1900s the number of inhabitants was as high as 2500. In the centre of Sidensjö are Sidensjöskolan (grades 1-6 and preschool), Sidensjö Sparbank (a free-standing Swedbank bank), a grocery store, an outdoor ice hockey rink, the Sidensjö IK football pitches and the service house Fyrklövern with an old people's home and nursery school.

Among the things worth seeing is the Sidensjö church, which was built in the 14th century and with that is one of the oldest in the Örnsköldsvik municipality. The church foundation was renovated in the early 1900s and many skeletons were uncovered below the church floor. Among the people buried was an embalmed 19th century priest and in the sacristy a young woman was found.

Just southeast of the church along road 908 towards Bjästa is the Sidensjö Village Hall where a café is open during summer. Next to the church is a hydroelectric power station that extracts energy from the Nätraån, a river with countless bends and sandbanks that is a popular place for canoe paddling. A popular tourist attraction is the "Bywatch" beach on the eastern shore of lake Bysjön along road 935 towards Örnsköldsvik, where there is a bridge, volleyball net and during summer a swim school.

Sidensjö has many active organizations and the biggest ones are IOGT-NTO (Swedish temperance organisation) and Sidensjö IK. Sidensjö IK is divided into several sections where the biggest ones are orienteering, cross-country skiing and football. In 1994 Sidensjö IK was responsible for organizing the first leg of the great orienteering competition called 'O-ringen 5-dagars'. The club was also the organizer of 'Natt-SM in orienteering' in 2004. During the 1980s Sidensjö had a women's football team participating in the Damallsvenskan national football league. The men's team is, as of season 2007/2008, residing in Division 5. Youth activity has always been an important and major part in the club and this work has produced a number of players who now play in Division 2 Norrland.

In November 2003 Skanova installed ADSL in the Sidensjö telephone switch and is now available to most inhabitants through various ISPs.

Notable people
Niklas Edin, olympic gold medal winner, curling.

ST. CLOUD -- An Oscar and Emmy-winning Rabbi, writer and filmmaker stopped by St. Cloud State University to discuss anti-semitism Tuesday.
Michael Berenbaum stopped by to mark International Holocaust Remembrance Day, marking the genocide of Jews, Slavs, Poles and many others by Nazi Germany. The day is observed on January 27.
Berenbaum says people who hate others for things like religion, skin color, sexuality, and other aspects have been emboldened.
"The internet has given them a megaphone, and social networks have given them a community. We used to have a sense that if you're racist, you kept your mouth shut about it, if you were sexist, you didn't speak like that and if you are anti-semitic you kept quiet. We now have a segment of the population that feels empowered to hate."
He says to fight hatred, you need to remember people as individuals and the principles our country was founded on.
"When you see people in their individuality, and you recall the essence of the American creed, that everyone's created equally and endowed by the creator with certain unalienable rights, that means we have to have a certain sense of inclusiveness and speaking without bigotry and rancor."
According to the Anti-Defamation League, there were almost 2,000 reported anti-semitic attacks in 2017, 2018 numbers aren't out yet. Last year, Robert Bowers allegedly opened fire on a Pittsburgh synagogue, killing 11 and wounding seven others.
Bowers is accused of anti-semitic postings on social media leading up to the attack.
The Pittsburgh attack was just one incident Barenbaum focuses on in his talks on anti-semitism. He has written and edited 20 books, is a professor of Jewish Studies and director of the Sigi Ziering Institute at the American Jewish University in Los Angeles.
Barenbaum also helped oversee the creation of the Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington D.C.

"I'm happy with it as a prototype, but I think it would need additional refinement before I started making these things for other people," Gray says."Other than making it even less comfortable to lay on my side, it's not all that much worse than just wearing the CPAP mask on its own. I could probably sleep with this thing on, at least for a couple hours. If nothing else, it helps keep the light out of my eyes."
