Purchasing a brand new home for yourself and your family is a hard and time-consuming process. However, even if you find a perfect place that works for you in every single aspect, that doesn't mean it's going to be just as amazing in the future as well. If your family expands and starts welcoming new members, or you decide to repurpose a part of your home, you might realize it just isn't working for you anymore. That's when you have to make a decision – should you remodel your home or sell it and move to a new one? So, how should you make this decision and what are some of the things you have to take into consideration when you're in this process?
Why do people love moving?
The reasons why people change homes are numerous and often depend on the type of work they do, the size of their family, the location of their home and the proximity to their offices, their kids' school, local parks, supermarkets, etc. However, sometimes it's not just about where you live, but how you live as well as we all wish to provide ourselves and our families the life we feel we deserve.
That's why we wish to relocate to a home that's bigger, nicer, newer and more visually appealing, and this sort of change can have a major effect on our lives. Still, is this the only way to go, or should we consider staying as well?
Why do people avoid moving?
Getting familiar with a certain place and falling in love with it is one of the main reasons why lots of people stay at their current homes even though they're not the most ideal solution in the world. Putting your roots down and leading a certain way of life means you're not ready to move somewhere else and get acquainted with a new neighborhood, new surroundings and a new way of life.
Therefore, people who are sentimentally attached to their homes prefer renovating over selling, and they don't mind investing a significant amount of money into making their home work for them more than before.
Whether you're searching for a new home or renovating your old one, it's important to know what you're doing and what you're trying to achieve. Finding inspiration in unusual places is just what some people need, and they don't mind browsing the Internet or checking out home makeover shows on TV to get inspired.
However, seeing something with your own eyes is always better and an idea you should definitely consider, and that's something people in Australia know quite well. They might talk to their neighbors and friends who have gone through the same process in the past, or even check out those visually appealing project homes in Sydney that will give them a new perspective on living spaces. This way, they can learn new trends and imagine their new homes in a more detailed and better way.
How to deal with financial issues?
A huge part of all home-related decisions is the budget – are you going to have enough money to realize all your ideas and turn your dreams into reality without compromising your home budget too much? Of course, everyone would like to do as much as they can, but it's the financial issues that are sometimes making this decision for them.
Long story short, if you're not in a situation to spend a huge amount of money, maybe you should opt for remodeling your home instead of buying a new one. Or, you can hope to sell it immediately after listing it and use the money to buy a new property straight away, but these things can take some time, so make a plan and try not to get into debt.
In the end, it all comes down to you and your wishes. Deciding between loving your home and listing it depends on a number of things and is probably going to be the hardest decision you've ever made, so you need to think about the needs of your family – is your current home big enough for all of you, does it give you enough privacy, is the location working for you, and are you able to afford to live in it month after month? If not, think about moving to a new place or even downsizing, but keep in mind that, whichever option you choose, you should make a decision you'll be happy with in the decades to come as well.

A country park has issued a warning about a bacteria growing during the warm weather which can be toxic to dogs.
Whitlingham Country Park has said blue-green algae has been detected in the Great and Little Broads.
The group of bacteria, which gives the appearance of algae when clumped together, has been blooming after the recent heat.
A statement from Whitlingham Country Park says: "Avoid contact with the water, it may cause skin irritation and stomach upset. The algae is toxic to humans and may be fatal to pets."

Blooms of blue-green algae can produce harmful toxins which stop a dog's liver from functioning properly, and can be fatal.
Blue Cross for Pets state types of blue-green algae can kill a dog just 15 minutes to an hour after drinking contaminated water.
If you think you have spotted blue-green algae in water and cannot see any signage, report it to the Environment Agency which can investigate.

A Nation and Her Loan Conundrum
Share on WhatsAppShare Share
By Jantiku Ijanada
The huge debt the country is owing various international bodies was about the main focus of the media in the week gone past. The media, both conventional and new, as well as vocal groups in the country seemed concerned about President Muhammadu Buhari's new loan request of $4bn and Euro 710million.
Perhaps, calling out the President over the request is in order given the $87bn the country already owes.
However, the Presidency and the President's media handlers and groups like the Buhari Media Organisation insist:
1. That the bulk of the outstanding debt, $64bn was incurred by previous administrations, and
2. Buhari administration's leg of the loan- $24bn, are project specific and are being judiciously utilised.
The National Assembly seems to agree with the Presidency and the Buhari groups. The upper legislative chamber appeared to concur with President Buhari and the media handlers that the bulk of the loans were secured by previous military and civilian administrations.
Has the Senate's position on the $87bn debt vindicated President Muhammadu Buhari and the All Progressive People's Congress (APC) of the criticism and backlash that greeted the President's request for the approval of the fresh loan and a grant of $125million to finance critical projects in the 2021 budget?
Having blamed the country's economic predicament on the failure of past governments to prioritise the provision of critical infrastructure, the Senate noted that the situation has left the present administration with no other viable option than to seek external borrowing to fund capital expenditures in the national budget.
To further buttress this, the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Finance, Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, was quoted during plenary to have said that majority of the loans being repaid by the Buhari administration were loans that accumulated from the times of the military to those of the PDP administration under Ex-Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo, Umaru Musa Yar'Adua and Goodluck Jonathan, between 1999 and 2015.
However, Senator Ali Ndume had earlier expressed concern over the parliament's haste to approve the loans, while the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) lamented that with the "reckless borrowing" by President Buhari and the APC, Nigerians might eventually not have a nation and a patrimony that they can freely call their own after the APC, which has less than two years to vacate office.
Even after APC's explanatory statement in which it noted that: borrowings by the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government is for the good of the country as the money is used to develop critical infrastructure that is stimulating economic growth, generating jobs, reducing poverty and improving the general well-being of the citizenry; former President Olusegun Obasanjo still maintained that borrowing to accumulate debt for the next generation is criminal and if the existing debt is left unserviced or unpaid, it might become a problem for successive administrations.
Having laid the background, shall we journey back to 2015 in comparison of how things were before President Buhari came to power, and now. As of June 2015, our total debt stood at $63 billion. This was at a time when crude oil sold for as high as $110-120 per barrel.
According to the Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI's) 10-year (2010-2019) report, the aggregate financial flows from the oil and gas sector to government amounted to $418.54bn, out of which $300bn was earned under the administrations of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, while $100bn accrued over a five year period under the Buhari administration. Within the period under review, the highest revenue flow of $68.44bn was recorded in 2011 alone. This much money vanished without traceable impact on infrastructure development, and the citizenry in the period leading to, and up to 2015.
In 2010, Nigeria exported over one million barrels of crude oil per day to the United States of America, representing 9% of the U.S total crude oil and petroleum products imports and over 40% of Nigeria's exports.
Also, the country made in excess $300bn from the sector alone during the era of the former administrations. In spite of the windfall, the last People's Democratic Party (PDP's) administration still took loans from local and international lenders and left behind a debt stock of $63bn.
Our current debt stands at $87bn out of which the Buhari-led administration borrowed $24bn in six years. Although 18% of the loan went to state governments, the loans collected are tied to specific projects already approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC).
Under Buhari's borrowing plan, Nigerians have become proud owners of legacy projects like the Abuja-Kaduna rail line; Itakpe-Warri rail project which was started 33 years ago; Lagos-Ibadan rail line, to mention but a few; while the Second Niger Bridge, Kaduna-Kano highway, Lagos-Ibadan express way, Lagos-Calabar rail line amongst others are work in progress and will soon be delivered. The loans taken are all directed towards specific projects that drive human capital growth, this is not just on paper but visible for all to see.
With so much earnings during the period leading to 2015, monies owed local contractors where running to trillions of naira and the Joint Ventures(JV) cash call arrears in the oil sector up tiil December 2015, stood at about $6.8 billion.
As against this indebtedness, a review of documents presented by national oil companies to the Federation Account Allocation Committee (FAAC) between May 2020 and May 2021, revealed that President Buhari has reduced our JV cash call from the initial $6.8 billion to a balance of about $1.464 billion. Of course, under this administration, contractors are being paid. Amazing, these payments were made at a time when the Buhari-led administration was experiencing a reduction in revenue earnings as a result of several factors, chief among which was the drop in oil prices from a range of $110-$129 to $47-$64 , and later the COVID-19 Pandemic which resulted to inflation.
Before we criticize Buhari's borrowing plan, we should remember that he inherited more than two thirds of what is on ground today and while loans other previous administration have little or no projects to justify them, loans acquired under Buhari are judiciously used to reduce the gap in our infrastructural deficit with the view of developing the economy and improving the quality of life of the people.
Like every other loan collection under this administration, it is believed that the fresh $4.9b loan request sent to the National Assembly for approval will fully fund the 15 projects in the addendum designed to touch all the six geo-political zones.
And as the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, rightly said, "the Federal Government is borrowing to build world-class infrastructure and not for recurrent expenditure. This is the difference between this administration and its predecessors".

Nigeria: Between Rogue Debt and New Loans
Pantami Calls For Strengthening Guidance and Counseling, Emphasises Skills Development in Schools


Perhaps you've heard talk about the "Seven Mountains", or the "Seven Mountain Mandate, or "Seven Mountain Prophecy". You may be wondering what this is all about.
The idea is really quite simple: in our culture, there are Seven Mountains (think of them as "spheres" or simply "areas") of influence, and the modern church is being called to build influence on each of those mountains.
If you're looking for it in the Bible, you won't find the "Seven Mountains". So in that sense, it is not in the Bible.
This is a message of encouragement for those who don't feel they are called to "full-time ministry". Even that term-"full-time ministry"-is inaccurate, as it is clear from Scripture that every believer is a full-time minister, a royal priest in God's Kingdom.
I did not know what that looked like. Was I supposed to put the fish symbol on the door to my office? Conduct a men's group Bible study each week? Increase the amount of my ties from the business? Join a Christian business men's group?
It's clear to me: if my answer to making big decisions in business is to seek the wisdom of God first, I cannot advise my consulting clients to do anything different.
I should mention at this point, not all of my clients are Christians. Some of them, I'm sure, find my beliefs quite amusing. But they continue to seek my business counsel. And while I don't make a secret of what I believe, who I follow, or where I get wisdom, I don't require clients to believe the same things I do.
This approach to business has given me a unique position of influence with many people. I find the combination of loving people, not judging them, and sharing with them the good news that God is for them, attracts even nonbelievers to your side. We shouldn't be surprised; it worked that way for Jesus. He didn't hang out with churchy people. He hung out with the people the churchy people held in contempt. Jesus loved people into the Kingdom.
It's the kindness of God that leads to repentance.
Which brings me back, albeit somewhat circuitously, to the Seven Mountains. Whichever "mountain" you are called to, or find yourself on currently, that's a place where you can bring the Kingdom of God. You can be a light on a hill.
You don't have to become a pastor, or join a religious order, or be ordained. You have already been ordained by God himself as a royal priest, and you have been given the authority to administer the Kingdom wherever you go.

May the holidays be filled with happiness and peace!
Here are two polar bear cards I made for a colleague of mine for her twins to give their teachers.
When it comes to making wedding cards, the first thing I think of making is a Tracy Gough inspired Ampersand Card. I hate to admit that I am not nearly as creative as she is and never want to take credit for her unique idea so please head on over to her blog Scrap Happens and show her some love.
The size for the ampersand is the same at 6" as well as the lettering, cut out at 1". I used silver and white with a flower in a "bleu de France." Yes, I looked up that colour name. I also added some blue adhesive jewels to match. Pretty!
I have a wedding coming up next month.
Here are a couple of cards I threw together for the end of the school year. I made the star card for my vice principal who is being transferred to another school. When I first started at the school where I work now, he was a grade 7 teacher and I taught French to his students. It was the first time ever that I enjoyed teaching French to an intermediate class and I truly believe it was because of him that it was such an enjoyable class. He really proved to be an excellent role model to me as a teacher and he later became our VP. He was a wonderful administrator and had developed an excellent rapport with our students and school community. He will be greatly missed but will always be a 'star' in my books!
This is the card I made for our principal. I chose the electric guitar on the Cricut Indie Art cartridge since he plays the guitar among other things. I used some textured card stock for parts of the piano. I like how these cards both turned out.
One of my colleagues had a baby girl last year and she will be turning one next week. Since she asked me to put together a personalized card to commemorate her first birthday, I decided to use the Cricut Create a Critter cartridge and went with the hippo cut. I made a large card so I cut the hippo at 3" and used the shadow feature as well. I embossed the white layer using the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots folder and adhered the hippo onto the shadow using pop dots from the dollar store. The flowers are also from the Create a Critter cartridge and can be found on the hedgehog page. The sizes range from 2" to .5" in half inch increments. I inked the edges using Studio G ink and added some pink adhesive jewels I bought at the dollar store. The letters and number are from the Cricut Storybook cartridge cut at 1.5" using the Shorty/Holes feature. The ribbon was purchased at Michaels as were the flower brads. Pink and brown combos have become a favourite of mine lately and I like how the one kind of blends in with the flowers so as not to detract from the other focal points.
Here's a quick post to share a card I made for a co-worker. She has twins who just finished JK so I decided to add two worms to represent them. They are from the Cricut Create a Critter cartridge. The apple is from Cricut Plantin Schoolbook using the roly poly feature. The word 'merci' is from the Cricut Beyond Birthdays cartridge and was also appropriate since her children attend a French Immersion school. I chose a black background to sort of represent a blackboard. For a final touch, I added some black Stickles to the worms' eyes and antennae. I placed it on the console table to dry and told my husband it was still wet. Two minutes later, my husband put his cell phone right on top. (Picture me in utter disbelief.) I was just about to leave for work until I saw the disaster. At least he took the kids to daycare for me while I redid one of the worms.
Here's another birthday card I made last week for a different colleague who turned 60. She's actually my teaching partner who has a dog and teaches French, hence the beret. The terrier is cut at 2.5" and the sentiment is cut at 1.25" using the border function from the Cricut Paper Pups cartridge. The number 60 was cut at 2.5", I believe, from the Cricut Storybook cartridge. I kind of wish I had used the shadow feature for the number.
Here's a card I made for a colleague at work. He owns a dog and likes the outdoors so I chose a cut from the Cricut Paper Pups cartridge and some earth tones for the colour scheme. The pup is cut out at 2.5" and the sentiment, from the same cart, was cut out at 1.25" using the Border feature. I used a little chalk to add some colour to the pup's spots. The ribbon was recycled from a gift. It was too nice to throw away and in good shape. Plus, I loved the colour. This was definitely a fun card to make.
Okay, I lied. It's not just a black and white card. There's also a splash of lime. used this card as my inspiration for this one. It was just so perfect, I had to try a version of it. The sentiment is cut at 2" from the Cricut Wild Card cartridge and the keynote is from the Cricut Storybook cartridge. The design paper is from Die Cuts With a View and the card base is a pearlized white from Michael's. The flowers were given to me by old friend who got married last year. I really like how this one turned out.
This week, my nephew is turning 7. His party was last week and, knowing he really likes dinosaurs, I decided to use the cute dinosaur cut on the Cricut Create a Critter cartridge. There are four layers on the dinosaur alone. I also used the Cricut Pooh Font to cut out his name. I hear he really liked it. Yay!
Yes, another baby card! This is the second one I made yesterday in between the six loads of laundry. The layout for this card was inspired by CPS sketch 209. It's a basic sketch, simple and clean. Just how I like 'em! There is a key note cut in the sketch and since I don't really use them much in my designs, I really wanted to incorporate a key note in this card. There are so many to choose from on the Cricut Storybook cartridge, too. The size of this card is approximately 7.5" by 5" to fit inside a Hallmark greeting card envelope. The layers were all cut a 1/2" shorter than the previous ones. The pink key note (from the Thank You cut on the Storybook cart) was cut out at 3.5" and the white one at 3.25". The lettering is from the same cart and I cut it out at 1.25". The baby was from the Cricut New Arrival cartridge cut out at 2.5" and I used my Stampin' Up chalks to add colour to her face, which is hand drawn. The patterned paper is from a pack I found in the Staples craft aisle. I added some icicle Stickles to make the letters pop as well as some bling from the dollar store. For the inside, I had the stem laying around from a previous craft and thought I'd add some flowers I had bought last year from Walmart. I hope Sophia likes it as much as I do. I mean, she's only a week old. I'm pretty sure she won't have much to say.
Today I'm working on a couple of New Arrival cards, all of them for girls. This is the first one I hope to finish this afternoon. I used the baby carriage from the Cricut New Arrival cartridge and cut it out twice in brown at 5" using the shadow feature. I then cut out two more in pink using the standard cut and two more in a patterned paper using the standard cut in shift mode as well as in white. I inked the edges using a brown ink by Craft Smart, added some brown ribbon and used a pink flower brad to attach the flower (from the dollar store). The sentiment is from Stampin' Up. To make the card, I folded back the top 1/2" of the back of the card and attached it to the front using my Scotch ATG gun. When it stands it kind of looks a 3D baby carriage with four wheels. I think I'll be making more of these!
Today, I attended my husband's cousin's bridal shower. So of course, I had to make a card. It's been way too long since the last card I made and as always, I had to use my Cricut. The sketch is from this week's CPS Sketch challenge and I chose the colour scheme from the bridal shower invitation. A friend at work gave me a bunch of miss-matched envelopes from a card store where she works on weekends, so I decided to make a bigger, more standard greeting card. It measures about 7 1/4" by 5". I used the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder, ribbon from Michael's, a couple of Prima flowers and design paper from Die Cuts With a View.
And by the way, I am celebrating my 5-year blogoversary on my other blog Toronto Teacher Mom with a $50 Amazon gift certificate giveaway. It's open to Canada and the U.S. and I would love for you to be a part of it. Check it out!
Last Thursday, it was my 33rd birthday. It also happened to be the birthday of my teaching partner's daughter. And can I tell you what a day it was! I share my office with the vocal music teacher as well as ma partenaire. The music teacher was so sweet to buy me freshly baked zeppole di San Giuseppe. There were so delicious! They look like the ones I found on pictured in The Swan Cake with a recipe in Italian. I could translate it for you but to save time, I found a similar recipe for zeppole di San Giuseppe here. To continue, my French partenaire bought a cake to share with the staff who all sung Happy Birthday, as did my grade 7 class and my grade 4 class. To top it off, she also ordered a beautiful flower arrangements to be delivered to the school! What a doll! Anyway, she asked if I could make a card for her daughter's birthday and how could I say no? I wanted to make a couple from which she could choose her favourite but I didn't have much time. So I made this butterfly birthday card. The butterfly is from the Cricut Stamping cartridge cut at about 4" and the sentiment is from the same cart, cut at about 3" (sorry, my memory is failing me. I blame my age.) I used both the regular cut and the shadow feature. The design paper is from Super Slab by Rob and Bob Studio (Provocraft) and the adhesive gems are from the dollar store.
And I should add that my husband also bought me flowers and cooked dinner and was just plain awesome. I felt so special!

The campaign team of the winner of the 22 September governorship primary of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bayelsa State, which was cancelled on Monday by the party, the Timipre Sylva Campaign Organisation, has described the invalidation of the primary election as unfortunate.
The National Working Committee (NWC) of APC had on Monday cancelled the primary election for the December 5 governorship election in the state following a controversial report submitted by the party's Electoral Committee headed by Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole.
However, the Timipre Sylva Campaign Organisation said, "The cancellation of the 22 September primary, where Chief Timipre Sylva was overwhelmingly voted by the APC family in our state to fly the party's flag at the December 5 governorship election, is unfortunate.
"But as loyal and faithful party folks we have the serenity to accept the decision in the larger interest of our great party. We urge our teeming supporters to remain peaceful and unruffled, rest assured that all is well.
"Ultimately, our victory is sure. Our hope cannot be annulled. Our mission to rescue Bayelsa State from the grip of maladministration and underdevelopment is a task that must be accomplished.


Scorch is an uncomplicated guy. If you want him to do something, all you really have to do is whip up a sticker chart, tell him he has to get so many stickers for doing whatever you'd like him to do and then give him a present when he does. It really doesn't matter what you give him- a gumball, a bouncy ball or a football. All he cares about is that it's new and it's his. This technique worked when he was 18 months old and it still works now at almost 5 years old- the carrot of more stickers leading to a toy will almost always guarantee his cooperation.
I have yet to figure out what Bean's carrot is which is a giant pain in the rear when trying to potty train her.
She really doesn't get excited about things- stickers, toys- like Scorch does. While she loves chocolate as much as the next girl, she doesn't love it enough to do something she doesn't want to. Outings to an exciting place- bounce house, science museum, Applebees- are a lot of fun but still not enough.
I cannot for the life of me figure out what makes this child tick. While I don't do this while trying to potty training her, I have resorted to time-outs or threats of taking toys away to force her into helping me or picking up a mess she made. Nada. She really doesn't care. She just digs in her heels and will not budge until she's good and ready- there is simply no combination to her.
Her teenage years should be a blast!

Skaara
From The Stargate Omnipedia
Abydonian son of Kasuf and brother of Sha're, Skaara was the leader in the group of native boys who observed the first humans to visit the planet from Earth. Skaara led his friends in an effort to free the captured team and defeat the Goa'uld Ra once and for all, and formed a deep bond with Jack O'Neill -- who was reminded of his late son by the young Abydonian. One of Skaara's closest friends was the Abydonian Nabeh, who died during the fight against Ra's occupation forces.
Skaara grew up believing Ra to be an evil god, and assisted in the Abydonian's forced naquadah mining operation. When the Tau'ri arrived, he believed they were sent by the Supreme System Lord, and bowed before them. However, he was soon convinced otherwise by their hospitality and led the group back to the Abydonian capital city, with Kasuf. Skaara was fascinated by the humans, dazzled by the cigarette lighter O'Neill gave him, and the Tau'ri weaponry.
Klorel takes control. From "Children of the Gods"
A year after Ra's defeat, Skaara was unexpectedly reunited with O'Neill when the colonel returned to Abydos. But the Goa'uld Apophis arrived soon after, and Skaara was taken captive by Apophis's battalion and implanted with the Goa'uld Klorel -- Apophis "son." For a year his whereabouts where unknown, until SG-1 intercepted Klorel's Ha'tak mothership en route to attack Earth. O'Neill zatted Klorel to reach Skaara, who was buried under the Goa'uld's dominating consciousness. He was overwhelmed with guilt for the atrocities he had been forced to commit, and for the assault Klorel was about to unleash against Earth. When Klorel reasserted control and nearly killed Daniel Jackson with a Goa'uld hand device, O'Neill was forced to shoot and kill him. But Bra'tac, then serving as his First Prime, revived Klorel and Skaara in a sarcophagus. When SG-1 and Bra'tac foiled the plan to invade Earth, Apophis and Klorel fled through the Stargate -- with Klorel fighting to maintain control against his strong-willed host body.
An injured Skaara pleads for help. From "Pretense"
Nearly two years later Klorel, still within Skaara, was fleeing a battle group dispatched by Heru'ur. His defeat eminent, he fled to the planet Tollana, where he knew that the Tollan would use their advanced weaponry to stop his pursuers. The gamble paid off, and Heru'ur's motherships were destroyed in orbit. But Klorel's death glider crashed on the planet's surface, and with the Goa'uld injured, Skaara briefly regained control. He plead with the Tollan to help him escape the "demon" inside him.
The Tollan called a triad (three-sided trial), with Skaara asking for O'Neill and Jackson's assistance in the proceedings. They won, and Skaara was freed from Klorel, eventually returning home to Abydos. More than three years later, Skaara welcomed SG-1 back to Abydos to help defend the planet from Anubis. Skaara had recently been betrothed, and asked O'Neill to shau'lo'ki -- to stand beside him as his best man.
During the firefight against Anubis's army, Skaara was shot by Anubis's invading Jaffa and taken into the catacombs by SG-1. He succumbed to his wounds and died, but his spirit transcended into an ascended being, guided by the powerful being Oma Desala. After Anubis wiped out the entire population of Abydos, Skaara appeared to the team to tell them that Oma had helped the entire Abydonian population to ascend.

The Roots of ADHD Motivation Problems — and How to Get Students Engaged in Learning
Motivation in children with ADHD is tied to how the brain perceives challenges, among other factors. When we create learning environments and activities that help students feel safe and confident, we reduce their chances of experiencing failure and increase their chance at success — factors that increase motivation and make learning more fun.
By Jerome Schultz, Ph.D. Verified Updated on October 28, 2022

Lackluster or inconsistent motivation is one of the most common and challenging problems for students with ADHD, who often struggle to turn on and tune in to schoolwork they find less than captivating. Difficulties with motivation often result in poor academic performance, further decreasing motivation and contributing to a self-defeating cycle.
But motivation in children with ADHD is complex and often misunderstood. Motivation may seem attitudinal, but it is closely tied to the neurobiology of ADHD, and how the brain perceives challenges.
Though ADHD motivation problems are real, it is possible to engage children with ADHD. Read on to understand what's behind motivation problems in children with ADHD, and the strategies that can help break the cycle of low motivation in the classroom.
Understanding Motivation and ADHD: A Scientific Approach
Neuroscience and behavior science can help explain motivation, and why children with ADHD in particular find it difficult to initiate, sustain, or complete tasks. Understanding the science of motivation can inform our approaches toward improving it.
First, What is Motivation?
Motivation is the general desire or willingness of someone to do something. It often explains why a person acts or behaves in a particular way.

All of us do — and don't do — things based on how they correspond to our needs. According to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs theory, basic, primary needs must be met before we can attend to needs of a higher order. Among the most important needs for students with ADHD are safety and esteem, which includes security, confidence, feelings of achievement, and the respect of others.
Why else do we "do" things? The need to survive motivates us, as do rewards, which can be either tangible and extrinsic (like toys and money) or intangible and intrinsic (joy, the thrill of success, improving our status, avoiding the unpleasantness of failure).
We are generally not motivated to do things that we perceive to be uninteresting ("Why should I learn that? That's boring to me"), unproductive ("I don't need that"), and/or a "threat" to our safety, status, and wellbeing.

Motivation in Children with ADHD: Critical Needs Unmet
Children with ADHD often struggle to develop a positive sense of self in school. If a child does not feel positive about what they can do or achieve, that can be an impediment to learning.
Students with ADHD are more likely than their neurotypical classmates to encounter bumps in their learning. They may be less likely than their peer to experience success — which strengthens self-esteem and increases motivation. What's more, children with ADHD have difficulty storing and recalling past experiences of success when it is attained. Neurologically speaking, fear and failure leave a bigger footprint than success.
Over time, these negative experiences of repeated failure or limited success accumulate and lead to a lack of confidence and feelings of incompetence, even when rewards are offered and earned. The brain, as it latches on to these bad experiences, recalibrates and tries to protect itself. As a result, many students with ADHD eventually develop an "I can't" mindset, which has a negative impact on thinking and motivation.
Motivation in Children with ADHD: Increased Fear Factor
The brains of people with ADHD differ from neurotypical brains, specifically in how the prefrontal cortex (PFC) — the front part of the brain implicated in planning, decision-making, and, indeed, motivation — processes and connects information to other parts of the brain, including the primitive survival center (the fear zone). These differences in wiring ultimately impact the way students with ADHD make sense of and interpret new tasks and challenges.
The act of learning becomes all the more challenging when parts of the brain aren't effectively "talking" to one another. Without efficient integration of messages within the brain, the ability to perform these related tasks can be seriously compromised:
Assess the complexity or difficulty of a task
Make connections to prior learning (e.g. every task becomes "new" and stressful)
Organize a plan of action
Execute and evaluating a response
Store the experience for later retrieval
It's easy to see why students with ADHD may not experience success as often as other kids. Their history of failure primes them to assume that any new task is too difficult and therefore stressful. And stress gets in the way of effective learning. This reactive response, reinforced by an "I can't" attitude and low self-esteem, causes students with ADHD to perceive academic environments as unsafe and threatening. People (and animals as well) who do not feel safe and secure do not learn well.
When children feel threatened (e.g. afraid of looking dumb, weak, and incompetent), their "fear factor" increases. The brain's survival center, believing it is under threat when it encounters something it doesn't know (in this case, schoolwork), essentially says, "Well, if you can't do it, you better get away from it because it's dangerous." This process effectively shuts down the PFC in the interest of survival — and "powers down" the very cognitive abilities students need to stay motivated.
When the fear factor goes up and cognitive abilities suffer, children become even more inefficient as learners, and their desire to "escape" from the situation increases. It's a destructive, cyclical process. But at its core, it's protective. It's how our brain protects us from harm in our environment. But in this case, schoolwork has become the threat — the predator.
This is why we sometimes see students who are almost aggressively passive, opting not to engage in any schoolwork at all. These are the students who may sit in the back of the classroom with hoodies up and earphones on — a defensive move that helps them avoid ridicule and shame. "If I don't do it," they think, "nobody really knows whether I'm smart or stupid."
In sum, a lack of motivation is generally attributed to neurobiologically-imposed challenges related to a student's perception of the difficulty of the task and her ability to do it. These perceptions are shaped by a history of success or failure in a related task. The desire to avoid "dangerous" situations leads to a self-defeating cycle: "I can't do this, so I won't do this."
Unmotivated No More: How to Increase Interest in Learning
1. Talk About the ADHD Brain
Teaching students about the neuroscience of stress and fear, and how it impacts motivation in ADHD brains, will help them understand that it's something else inside them — i.e. not attitude or some personal default — that is behind their motivation problems. Armed with this explanation, students are less likely to use ADHD as an excuse and more likely to develop a better sense of control over the situation.
2. Use Success Rating Scales
How a student perceives the difficulty level of a task and their ability to take it on is more important than anything a parent or teacher says. (That's why comments like, "I know you can do this. It's easy. You've done it before," while well-intentioned, don't always work on a student who is trying, but finding it difficult, to experience success.) It's important to know how students perceive a task in order to determine how to support them. That's where success rating scales come in.
For a given task, students can indicate difficulty and ability perceptions on a scale of one to five, where one means low difficulty or high ability, and five means extreme difficulty or low skill/ability.
A 5:1 ratio (hard task: lots of ability) is a great combination that indicates high motivation
A 5:5 (hard task:low ability) is a no-go ratio, meaning that the brain is perceiving something to be too difficult
A 3:3 ratio (moderate task:moderate ability) is optimal for learning
For classwork and homework, students can rate their initial difficulty:ability rating at the top of the page, and their final rating at the bottom once they complete the assignment. Students might find that what they perceived to be a 4:4 task, for example, was actually a 3:3. This difference can be the basis for discussions between students and teachers about how to get into a go-go zone at the beginning of a learning activity. Teachers and parents should keep a work file to be used as an objective track record of the student's growth and success.
How worthwhile a student finds a task is another important component to motivation that can be gauged with a similar scale. To increase motivation for a task that a student finds "boring" or irrelevant, teachers can create a learning activity related to a student's life or interests. This way, it'll allow the student to achieve or demonstrate the intended target skill on a more personal level. For example, if a student isn't interested in writing an essay about a book, they might be interested in writing about a video game they enjoy playing.
3. Maximize Assets and Minimize Barriers
Teachers and parents should help students analyze their asset profile. In other words, what skills they have going for them that might make it possible to do a task well.
Many students might be quick to say that they have "nothing" going for them, which is untrue. In this moment of low motivation, teachers and parents can use a "competence anchor" — a reminder of an activity or time in which the student experienced success — to help them re-establish a positive mindset and reduce the fear factor. Pull a similar task from the student's work file (mentioned above), for example, to prove that they have persevered, checked their perceptions, and been successful before — and that they can do it again. Remind them of non-academic activities they stuck to as well, like the time they spent hours learning how to play an instrument, or trying to beat a difficult level in their video game. Demonstrating that a student has the stamina and drive to complete a task, can help to dispel the myth of the "lazy" kid.
A competence anchor works because success is a powerful motivator for the brain, which, as we have said, is unfortunately quite good at holding on to past experiences of fear and failure. (The thrill of success explains the popularity of video games, which are designed to give children early exposure to success at lower levels of performance, and only increase the difficulty level based on performance.)
Finally, it's also important to help a child analyze the barriers to success. Apart from lack of skill, impediments could include things in the child's immediate environment, like noise, or movements outside the window, that interfere with focus and motivation. A fix for this particular issue, for example, could be moving the student to a quieter area or eliminating the distraction. Parents and teachers may need to offer suggestions to students until they are able to independently troubleshoot.
Teaching kids about the neurobiological basis of stress and motivation can help to put them on the pathway to increased success. When we create learning environments and activities that help students feel safe and confident, we are reducing their chances of experiencing failure and increasing their chances at success — factors that increase motivation — and make learning more fun.

In November 2016, LIC project received a proposal from Bahi District Council to invest in improving an irrigation facilities and production technologies for five paddy schemes in Bahi Sokoni, Matajira, Uhelela, Nguvumali and Mtazamo – all in Bahi district in Dodoma Region. The LIC investment further included support to land use planning for titling through use of cost effective satellite technologies and support to the establishment of financial management structures to ensure proper operation and maintenance of the schemes and revenue collection for Local Government Authorities.
Before the rehabilitation of the irrigation infrastructure, the distribution of water in the five irrigation schemes was poor and uneven, resulting in poor yields. The rehabilitation has resulted in a yield increases of 25-100%, the span indicating a wide gap between the most effective farmers and the less effective ones. The wide span is however also is an indication of the potential scope for increasing the yield on poorer performing farms through education to farmers and introduction of improved technologies and farming practices.
The investment undertaken by LIC has not only revolutionized paddy production in the respective schemes in Bahi but has also acted as an eye opener to paddy farmers and other potential investors and business people involved in the paddy value chain.
Increased rice production resulting from improved irrigation infrastructures and expansion of the irrigated /farmed land. Employment opportunities created in nursery preparation, plot preparation, transplanting, weeding, winnowing, bag shifting, processing and shipping but also in commerce as the overall increase in rice production and farmer income generates benefits to the wider economy of the local communities.
The increased output of rice has driven new private investments in warehouses and processing facilities.
Increasing farm incomes and profit margins have made farmers to realize the value of investing further in paddy production and processing. More farmers are now shifting from selling raw paddy to processed rice.
The Bahi District Council through an agreement with the producer associations is now realizing increased revenue collection of 8,000 TZS per plot.
LIC project has invested TZS 239 million to improve Bahi paddy schemes in Dodoma.


This weeks Baking with Julia recipe is French Strawberry Cake. The base for this cake is Julia's recipe for the Perfect Génoise. Madeleines, also made with a basic Génoise batter, have long been a favorite of mine, and I make them quite often. So, I expected no trouble with this cake. Wrong!! I made this cake twice! I found that my first had a hard, heavy layer on the bottom and it did not rise at all. The second was better but, still not as good as it should have been. I put my cake together, with my beautiful just picked strawberries (it's strawberry season in NJ) and took my photos! Then I went back into the kitchen and made a third cake that came out close to perfect! There was no way I was going to quit until I mastered this recipe! Before I made my last cake; I did some online research and watched a video I found of Julia Child and Flo Braker making a Génoise Part 1 and Part 2 .
Warming your eggs (still in the shell) in a bowl of warm water before using them, was something I always do or, I use room temperature eggs. I also found that I needed to beat the egg and sugar mixture longer then the suggested 5 minutes. Ten minutes gave me a perfect ribbon. Lastly, the most important thing I learned was to sift the flour, in small amounts, over the batter and then fold it in. I don't think this recipe was clear about how to incorporate the flour.
Now I have a lovely Génoise waiting in my freezer, to be served the next time I have company coming over! This was a very lovely light dessert and my just picked strawberries made it even better. It was reminiscent of the strawberry shortcake my grandmother used to make except, she used to buy the sponge cake sold in the grocery store! Happy Tuesday everyone!
Our hosts this week for Baking with Julia are Sophia of Sophia's Sweets and Allison of Sleep Love Think Dine. The recipe will be posted on blogs.
I forgot to mention that I salvaged the top layer of the first cake which was fine and then added it to the two layers of the second cake! I would have never gotten 3 layers out of my first two cakes! My third cake came out much higher and would have given me 3 layers. I guess I should have said "Third Times a Charm"!!
The early strawberries around here seem to have disappeared for the season. (I'm in central PA) I thought it was just me missing them but I was talking to a few other and it seems the crop this year just wasn't up to par. Thankfully, my daughter is sending me some fresh Strawberry Jam to hold me over until the later varieties start producing.
Thank you so much for sharing, your cake looks heavenly!!!
Wow, Kathy-this awesome cake is almost identical to the one that Lora and I made for Lizzy's guest post, and even the filling. Great minds think alike...because, I made another different kind of strawberry cake, for Father's Day!
Gorgeous cake, and I love the pretty pink hurricane glass plates. I had a set of 12 of these plates with similar design, and donate it it to Goodwill when I move to my beach place...just had to downsize. (now, I'm sorry) I still have a similar pink platter like yours but mine is square!
Holy moly--you made this three times?? That takes dedication~ Nice job! It looks beautiful, and I'm glad that ever try got a little better.
A delicious cake:) I wish I could have a piece. I admire your perseverance in perfecting the cake. You did a fantastic job.
What a pretty way to frost and decorate your cake!
Your cake is gorgeous Kathy - I could use a huge slice right now.
Your just picked strawberries look so beautiful! I love the height of your cake.
Your cake is so pretty! You worked hard and it shows! Your piping is beautiful! That's another thing I need to work on. What recipe do you usually use for your madeleines?
My basic madeleine recipe is from Martha Stewart. It was in her book Entertaining. I also posted a chocolate madeleine recipe from Epicurious.com. here.
Thanks for all the hints. Mine also took a bit longer than 5 minutes to get the ribbons and I left my eggs on the counter for a while & my kitchen is about 85* right now, so definitely on the warmer side. Your cake looks gourmet!!
This is definitely a cake that I will be making. We went strawberry picking last weekend and this recipe is perfect!
Hi Kathy! I'm so excited to know you will be joining us for the Picnic Game!!! And to think you're bringing the letter L Limoncello Biscotti!
We are going to have a wonderful Picnic and guess what, we don't even need to worry about the weather!!!
Beautiful! Love the piped cream on top!
so sos beautiful... i came by earlier.. marvelled at the cake.. and then called my mom to have a look .. u've done a brilliant job!!!
Thanks Elaine, If you watch Flo while she's baking this cake, she sifts the flour, then sifts again, then measures out her one cup, leaving flour on the wax paper which she puts back into the canister. That means she was using less flour then we used. Then she put it into a sifter to sift over the egg mixture. I think this cake is all about technique and that would be a reason so many of us had problems.
The cake plate was my moms. I love it, too!
What determination! Your cake is lovely.
Just picked strawberries sound amazing!
If I didn't know better, this is a cake I could have purchased at "Layers", my current bakery of choice. Kathy, it is beautiful, love the piping. What effort. I think I'm most fortunate because I didn't participate this month and will catch up with the June recipes in July and August. Yourt second graph of suggestions will be good to follow and I also will pick up the videos at the library and watch Julia and Flo do their thing. Lovely. Just lovely.
This looks amazing, i'm glad you enjoyed it after all!!!
Kathy, I love the colors of the pink glass serving platter and matching plates - the pink color perfectly matches the amazing looking cake you made. I just love your post, so nicely done!
Your cake looks great and how fun to use "real" strawberries! ;) I only sliced my cake into two. It would have been a sad, crumbly mess if I'd have done 3.
Beautiful job! I wish I'd tried this recipe again. My cake had one sad little layer. Thanks for the tips - it will make a difference when I try again.
well you really did your homework and it looks like it really paid off! what an incredibly beautiful cake!
Kathy, I love your dedication! It would have been easy to give up after the second or third try. Congrats for not giving up!
I'm impressed that you tried so many times! It really looks lovely.
Wow, Kathy! You truly are a perfectionist. I'm sorry I had to drop out of the group, but I love the way this cake looks. Also - love your Depression Glass!
Kathy this cake is so elegant! It looks like it came straight from the hands of a pastry chef!
Thanks for all the great tips on baking this cake! I'm so impressed that you stuck with it for three attempts and you've inspired me to try again. Gorgeous results!
from one jersey girl to another-well done! strawberry season in tennessee is long gone but i went ahead with using them, they made up for the lousy cake layers. it is also nice to know that i wasn't the only one making this 3 times.


Can Getting Injections In The Spine Help With Back, Neck, and Sciatica Pain?
Anyone who has suffered from Back, Neck, and Sciatica pain knows just how severe and debilitating it can be, and many people would do just about anything to relieve the pain. Often times traditional treatments such as Physical Therapy or Chiropractic don't work or the patient is in too much pain to do them, and in these instances doctors will often suggest getting a shot of steroids in the injured area.
The intended use of cortisone injections is to reduce inflammation in the injured area for a period of time, usually between 6 weeks and 6 months. When the inflammation is reduced so is the amount of pain, and the patient can once again go about their day to day activities while also resuming therapy for their injury. This is the best case scenario, but there are also many dangers to getting cortisone injections. The biggest worry is that the shot can cause damage to the soft tissue at the area of injection. And multiple shots to that area can cause the soft tissue to break down even faster and potentially make the injury much worse.
Another issue is that the success rate of the cortisone shot can vary depending on what is causing the back pain and how severe it is. It has been estimated that these injections only work about half the time to relieve the patient's pain. Not only that, but they tend to only relieve the symptoms for a short amount of time, or maybe not at all. Because of this, there is a lot of skepticism about how effective these injections are and if they are even appropriate for some patients.

What to watch for in the Thunder home game against the Celtics
Cody Taylor
October 25, 2018 7:30 am CT
For the first time since moving to Oklahoma City, the Thunder are 0-3 to start a season.
After dropping the first two games of the season to the Warriors and Clippers, the Thunder squandered a great chance to pick up their first win against the Kings on Sunday.
Now, they will look for their first win of the season on Thursday night against the Celtics.
Here are three things to watch for.
Can the team break out of its offensive slump?
The team's offensive problems are well documented to this point.
Entering play on Thursday, the Thunder are dead-last in offensive efficiency after scoring just 95.5 points per 100 possessions so far this season and they are also 30th in field-goal percentage and three-point percentage.
The starting unit has not helped, either.
While Paul George leads the team in total scoring, he is shooting just 38.2 percent from the floor and 31.3 percent from 3, while Dennis Schroder is shooting only 28 percent from the floor and Patrick Patterson is at 26.3 percent from the floor and 25 percent from the perimeter.
Patterson said after the game against the Kings on Sunday night that he believes the looks that he is getting from three-point range are good ones, but he just has to find a way to start making those shots. While he has struggled, head coach Billy Donovan is confident he can break out of his slump.
The team has had quite a few days off since last playing on Sunday so they have had an extended period of time to continue to build the chemistry together as Russell Westbrook said his chemistry with Shroder is a work in progress.
With so much time in practice this week, we should see the Thunder put in perhaps their best offensive performance of the short season so far as they are surely aware of their recent struggles.
Can Paul George stay out of foul trouble?
For some reason, Paul George can't stay out of foul trouble.
George fouled out against the Clippers on Friday and then picked up his fifth foul against the Kings on Sunday with about 23 seconds left in the third quarter and was forced to sit until about the 7:31 mark of the fourth.
So far, George is averaging a career-worst 4.7 fouls per game. His 14 total fouls are among the highest in the league and his 4.7 fouls per game are sixth-worst in the NBA.
George didn't really have an explanation for it on Sunday.
"Some of the fouls I picked up tonight was beyond me," George said. "I don't know what it is. I've always had this issue against the stripes so maybe it's just me and [I need to] get better with it."
The NBA has informed teams this season that it will be placing emphasis on allowing players to move more freely on offense to cut down on arm wraps, grabbing and dislodging by both offensive and defensive players.
While George has been whistled for some tough calls thus far, including a questionable push-off on Sunday, it is obvious that he and other players in the league will have to adjust how the game is officiated now.
In order for the Thunder to have a chance against the Celtics, they'll need George to stay out of foul trouble and play his customary 38 to 40 minutes in the game.
Steven Adams could have a huge rebounding night
Steven Adams may grab all of the offensive rebounds on Thursday night.
The Celtics announced on Wednesday afternoon that center Aron Baynes will miss the contest due to a strained right hamstring, which will leave Daniel Theis and perhaps Robert Williams to fill in for Baynes.
Per @bball_ref the record for offensive rebounds in a game since 1983-84 is 18. It was done 3 times by Dennis Rodman, Charles Oakley and Zaza Pachulia (!).
If Aron Baynes is out Thursday & Saturday, Steven Adams and Andre Drummond may both break that record.
— Keith Smith (@KeithSmithNBA) October 23, 2018
Of course, the possibility of setting the offensive rebounding record during the game may be a bit exaggerated, but Adams could still have a big night, nonetheless.
Adams is averaging 14.7 points and 14.3 rebounds per game so far this season, with six of those rebounds coming on the offensive end of the floor.
His 18 total offensive rebounds are currently tied for the most in the league with Andre Drummond, LaMarcus Aldridge and Jusuf Nurkic through three games.
While many things haven't gone the Thunder's way so far this season, the team leads the league in offensive rebounds per game after leading the league last year with Adams a huge part of that.
Adams set his career-high for most offensive rebounds in a game earlier this calendar year against the Cavaliers on Feb. 13, after he corraled 12 offensive boards in that game.
Let's see if he can come close to that on Thursday.

February 10, 1948- Minneapolis Lakers and Harlem Globetrotters
GM – FBF – My fellow Wilmington, North Carolina native Meadowlark Lemon is a true national treasure. I watched him play for the Harlem Globetrotters when I was growing up and his skill with the basketball and dedication to the game were an inspiration not only to me, but to kids all around the world.
Michael Jordan NBA Hall of Fame Basketball Player
Remember – "You must understand as a kid of color in those days, the Harlem Globetrotters were like being movie stars."
Wilt Chamberlain NBA Hall of Fame Basketball Player
Today in our History – February 10, 1948 – THE DATE WAS SET FOR THE MINNEAPOLIS LAKERS AND THE HARLEM GLOBETROTTERS TO PLAY (February 19, 1948) IN WHICH THE GLOBETROTTERS WON! The Harlem Globetrotters originated on the south side of Chicago, Illinois, in the 1920s, where all the original players were raised. In spite of the team's name, the squad was born 800 miles west of Harlem in the south side of Chicago. In 1926, a group of former basketball players from Chicago's Wendell Phillips High School reunited to play for the Giles Post American Legion basketball team that barnstormed around the Midwest. The following year, the team became known as the Savoy Big Five while playing home games as pre-dance entertainment at Chicago's newly opened Savoy Ballroom The Globetrotters began as the Savoy Big Five, one of the premier attractions of the Savoy Ballroom opened in November 1927, a basketball team of African-American players that played exhibitions before dances. In 1928, several players left the team in a dispute. That autumn, several of the players, led by Tommy Brookins, formed a team called the "Globe Trotters" and toured Southern Illinois that spring. Abe Saperstein became involved with the team as its manager and promoter. By 1929, Saperstein was touring Illinois and Iowa with his basketball team called the "New York Harlem Globe Trotters". Saperstein selected Harlem, New York, New York, as their home city since Harlem was considered the center of African-American culture at the time and an out-of-town team name would give the team more of a mystique. In fact, the Globetrotters did not play in Harlem until 1968, four decades after the team's formation.
The Globetrotters were perennial participants in the World Professional Basketball Tournament, winning it in 1940. In a heavily attended matchup a few years later, the 1948 Globetrotters-Lakers game, the Globetrotters made headlines when they beat one of the best white basketball teams in the country, the Minneapolis Lakers (now the Los Angeles Lakers). The Globetrotters gradually worked comic routines into their act—a direction the team has credited to Reece "Goose" Tatum, who joined in 1941—and eventually became known more for entertainment than sports. Once one of the most famous teams in the country, the Globetrotters were eventually eclipsed by the rise of the National Basketball Association, particularly when NBA teams began fielding African-American players in the 1950s. In 1950, Harlem Globetrotter Chuck Cooper became the first black player to be drafted in the NBA by Boston and teammate Nat "Sweetwater" Clifton became the first African-American player to sign an NBA contract when the New York Knicks purchased his contract from the Globetrotters. The Globetrotters' acts often feature incredible coordination and skillful handling of one or more basketballs, such as passing or juggling balls between players, balancing or spinning balls on their fingertips, and making unusual difficult shots.
In 1952, the Globetrotters invited Louis "Red" Klotz to create a team to accompany them on their tours. This team, the Washington Generals (who also played under various other names), were the Globetrotters' primary opponents up until 2015. The Generals were effectively stooges for the Globetrotters, with the Globetrotters handily defeating them in thousands of games.
Many famous basketball players have played for the Globetrotters. Greats such as "Wee" Willie Gardner, Connie "The Hawk" Hawkins, Wilt "The Stilt" Chamberlain, and Nat "Sweetwater" Clifton later went on to join the NBA. The Globetrotters signed their first female player, Olympic gold medalist Lynette Woodard, in 1985. The Globetrotters have featured 13 female players in their illustrious history. Baseball Hall of Famers Ernie Banks, Bob Gibson, and Ferguson Jenkins also played for the team at one time or another. Because the majority of the team players have historically been African American, and as a result of the buffoonery involved in many of the Globetrotters' skits, they drew some criticism during the Civil Rights era. The players were accused by some civil-rights advocates of "Tomming for Abe", a reference to Uncle Tom and Jewish owner Abe Saperstein. However, prominent civil rights activist Jesse Jackson (who would later be named an Honorary Globetrotter) came to their defense by stating, "I think they've been a positive influence… They did not show blacks as stupid. On the contrary, they were shown as superior." In 1995, Orlando Antigua became the first Hispanic player on the team. He was the first non-black player on the Globetrotters' roster since Bob Karstens played with the squad in 1942–43. The Harlem Globetrotters have been featured in several of their own films and television series and still are a crowd favorite today.

Salary Survey to Investigate Year-On-Year Trends
Pro Bono Australia, is again conducting Australia's largest salary surveys aimed specifically at the Not for Profit sector.
Xavier Smerdon | 1 December 2014 at 9:02 am
"With the results of this annual survey we will provide an essential guide to salary levels and expectations, benchmarking, analysis and employment trends for the rapidly expanding range of Not for Profit and Community jobs," Pro Bono Australia Founder Karen Mahlab said.
"We are calling on all Senior Managers and Executives working in the sector to complete this short survey and be a part of this vital initiative.
"Armed with the extensive results from the last two years, this year's survey will allow for some strong year-on-year comparative analysis of the growth within the Not for Profit sector.
"Close to 2000 people and organisations have accessed last year's survey results, making this a major reference point for Not for Profit salaries in Australia. And more than 1500 people completed the online survey.
Last year's ground-breaking salary survey revealed the highlights and lowlights of annual remuneration, bonuses and professional development.
In particular the survey revealed that a large proportion of Not for Profit salaries and pay rates are not being reviewed on a regular basis.
The survey found the lack of remuneration reviews effects employment positions across the sector from CEOs, Human Resources Managers and through to Volunteering Managers, where more than half (58 per cent) reported not receiving a regular review of their pay.
The survey found that the greatest proportion of people not receiving regular pay reviews were those in Social Enterprise (53 per cent), Sport and Recreation (53 per cent), Volunteering (52 per cent) and Aboriginal / Indigenous (51 per cent).
The good news in last year's survey appears to be that CEO pay rates in the Not for Profit sector have risen, particularly in the healthcare sector.
In contrast to previous year's survey, Mental Health is now the sector with the highest average total remuneration, across executive jobs from the CEO ($201,992), General Manager and Financial officers, while Arts and Culture ($94,349) and Human Rights ($96,644) has the lowest pay rates.
The previous 2013 survey found that the highest average pay rates were in the Health Care/Medical Research sector ($155,951) followed by Foundations/ Philanthropic Organisations ($150,792).
The salary survey is one of the largest of its kind and includes responses covering more than 2000 cases across 13 employment positions.
"This is indeed a groundbreaking survey into the remuneration offered to those executives and managers who lead this very important sector," Pro Bono Australia Founder and CEO, Karen Mahlab said.
"With over 600,000 organisations operating nationally, more than 1 in 15 Australians work for either a Not for Profit or a charity.
"Board members and Executives of all sized Australian Not for Profits will now have access to an extensive and broad-based salary survey to help guide them in their decision making around remuneration," Mahlab said.

What the Fugue is a Requiem?
By Brandon Kinsey
A musical celebration and honoring of the dead based on religious texts is called a requiem. November 15 & 16, you'll hear one of the most famous of the genre at The Mozart Requiem.
Requiems have been around since the second century when they were composed using simple chants. Like a fine wine, music has aged into a mature bold sound. Composers started incorporating something called polyphony into vocal chant music during the 15th century. Polyphony combines independent musical lines that act as their own melodies while also creating harmony against each other.
Think of it like this… the chant is like a conga line; everybody moves in one line in the same direction. Polyphony is like ballet — groups of dancers perform their own routines in support of the entire production on stage. Each dancing group looks great individually and in combination.
Or imagine the chant music like trying to merge onto I-25 South from Highway 6, and polyphony is like what I imagine being a pilot with the Thunderbirds is like: conquering the sky in every direction… smooth, majestic, and totally awesome.
Composers then upped the ante by combining the now polyphonic chorus with a full-blown orchestra.
Mozart's Requiem
Now keep in mind, Mozart wasn't the first to write for this new souped-up sound. His requiem is however full of unique sounds and a history of its own.
Mystery surrounded the requiem from the very beginning. A count who wished to remain anonymous commissioned the composition to honor his deceased wife. It just so happens that Mozart was working on it near the end of his own life and didn't actually complete it himself. In fact in some movements, he only completed vocal parts and basso continuo lines (basically a blueprint for what the harmony should be). The debate continues today over who wrote which parts, and how much is authentically Mozart. Regardless of who wrote what, the requiem is both incredible and an important piece within the classical canon.
Don't miss The Mozart Requiem in our dramatic collaboration with Central City Opera and the Performing Arts Academy.

Kolkata – Metro attack youths start 'let there be hugging' campaign against moral policing
KOLKATA: The trashing of a young couple for "public display of affection and obscene behaviour" on a Metro train evoked sharp reaction from youths, with "Hok Alingan (Let There Be Hugging)" groups gathering on Metro stations on Wednesday. Neither the young couple could be tracked nor was any FIR lodged in the case till late on Wednesday.
A video of moral policing incident which went viral on social media prompted Metro Railway to convene a press conference to explain its stand on a social issue. Metro Railway general manager Ajay Vijayvargiya said, "We scrutinized the CCTV footage but couldn't find anything concrete. We couldn't determine what happened and who were involved."
He, however, admitted that CCTV surveillance at the Metro station was inadequate.
Metro officials passed the buck on police claiming the incident to be a law and order issue, while police said they could do little in the absence of any formal complaint.
"It (moral policing) will become acceptable behaviour if we don't protest. Couples tend to stand in close proximity in crowded Metro coaches. Ask any woman travelling in the Metro during office hours and they will narrate how they have been shoved, groped or pinched," college student Anuradha Jana, who was out there to voice her anger, said.
Witnesses to the Monday's episode recalled how the couple travelling by a Dum Dum-bound late-evening train were harassed by a section of commuters for standing too close to each other, then pushed out of the train at Dum Dum station and thrashed till some other commuters rescued them.
"The young man and woman were standing close to each other when an elderly man commented aloud that the way they were standing was inappropriate. The young man retorted, prompting others to join in. Soon, invectives were being hurled at the couple. Someone commented that they should go to a pub on Park Street. Another person made a reference to the bedroom. And, when the train stopped at Dum Dum, the couple were pushed out on to the platform and beaten up by middle-aged and elderly passengers," recalled a passenger.
"A young couple embraced in Kolkata Metro. It made a bunch of frustrated old losers angry. They beat them up. Scenes of hatred are allowed. Scenes of love are considered obscene," tweeted writer Tasleema Nasreen, who herself was ousted from the city a few years ago.

WV Turnpike traffic exceeds estimates early Thanksgiving week
November 29th, 2022 by WCBC Radio
Traffic on the West Virginia Turnpike was heavier than expected the first two days of the Thanksgiving travel week.
From Tuesday, Nov. 22, 2022, through Sunday, Nov. 27, 2022, 721,114 vehicles passed through Turnpike toll booths. Traffic was heaviest the two days before the Thanksgiving holiday and the weekend after.
On Tuesday, Nov. 22, 2022, 132,053 vehicles went through Turnpike toll booths. On Wednesday, Nov. 23, 2022, 156,757 vehicles passed through the toll booths. Traffic for the two days was nearly 2,000 vehicles higher than predicted.
Highest traffic day on the Turnpike was Sunday, Nov. 27, 2022, when 159,366 vehicles passed through the toll booths.
"The West Virginia Turnpike experienced just about the amount of traffic we were expecting for Thanksgiving week," said Jeff Miller, executive director of the West Virginia Parkways Authority. Aside from some weather-related accidents that slowed traffic on Sunday, Nov. 27, 2022, traffic flowed smoothly throughout the week.
"We were well staffed, and our crews worked very hard to ensure that traffic got through as quickly as possible," Miller said. He encouraged motorists to participate in the E-ZPass program to speed traveling time through toll plazas and suggested drivers try to plan their travel to avoid peak traffic times.
