In the build-up to the centenary of the outbreak of the First World War on 4 August, there have been many books, television and radio programmes and newspaper articles debating the inevitability of the conflict. Was a worldwide clash of the great European powers bound to happen, or was it a diplomatic cock-up resulting from slow communications and linguistic misunderstandings which set the world on a course to war which would cost millions of lives and determine the course of the rest of the twentieth century?
Because our books were mostly published before 1914, we have almost no books about the war itself. An exception is the touching War Record of the Cambridge University Press 1914–1919, published in 1920, which gives the military service details of the 252 Cambridge University Press employees who joined the armed forces during the First World War.
The records are of variable length, with the most comprehensive giving the employee's full name, the regiments in which he served, the areas where he was based, positions held, promotions received and injuries sustained. Out of the 41 employees who lost their lives, photographs of 40 are included: as so often, the fixed stares of the sitters (who were not supposed to smile, and had to hold their pose for a long time) are horribly poignant.
What we do of course have is a very large number of books which describe the political and diplomatic situation in Europe from the French revolutionary wars onwards. To what extent should hindsight be used to argue that Napoleon's incursion into the German states and his dismantling of the Holy Roman Empire (at first welcomed by progressive Germans) would make even greater the historic enmity and rivalry between France and Germany which resulted in the Franco-Prussian War and the creation of the expansionist German Empire?
Meanwhile, the decline of the Ottoman Empire meant the rise of new nationalist movements and power centres. The Greek struggle for independence became a cause for 'philhellenes' across Europe, most famously Lord Byron, and in spite of the internal squabblings of the London Greek Committee, the support of both individuals, and eventually governments, influenced the outcome. At the decisive sea battle of Navarino (now Pylos) in 1827, the French, British and Russians were allies against the Turks.
But by the time of the Crimean War, which began in a quarrel about the protection of Christians in the Ottoman Empire, Britain and France became involved in bolstering the Turks because neither wanted to see Russian power and influence extended in the Middle East. (An equal concern about Russian expansion in central Asia of course led to the Anglo-Afghan conflicts.) The Crimean War, arguably the first 'modern' war, lost lives on an appalling scale, and famously led to reforms such as the abolition of serfdom in Russia (serfs made less good soldiers than free men), the modernisation of the British army, and improvements in conditions of service and in medical care of the injured.
But increasingly the Balkans became the centre of potential strife. The Serbs had managed to break free of the Ottoman empire in two uprisings from 1804 to 1815 (though the last Turkish soldiers did not leave the country until 1867). Attempts to unite with Bosnia were frustrated by the Great Powers (Congress of Berlin, 1878, and all that), who effectively gave Bosnia to the Austro-Hungarian empire. Then there were the Bulgarian atrocities and the Balkan wars, feudalism versus modernisation, Orthodox Slavs with Russia as their protector versus Catholics (and the odd enclave of Protestants) who looked to the west.
One thing that the media coverage of the build-up to war has brought home is that it appears that even days before the mobilisation of the armies, nobody really believed that Germany and Britain would ever go to war. In spite of 'Prussian' expansionism, France – a traditional enemy and a volatile republic – was still seen as the greater menace by a large part of the British population, while the Germans, sober, hard-working, beer-drinking and ruled by Queen Victoria's grandson, seemed more like our natural allies.
In the background of course was an arms race, especially at sea, and influenced by the theories of naval historian Alfred Thayer Mahan. Frederick Jane (founder of the Jane's Fighting Ships series) and R.P. Hearne discussed both sea power and the new possibilities of aerial warfare, and from this point of view a conflict might be viewed as inevitable – how do you win an arms race without testing the products (that is, of course, in the days before Mutually Assured Destruction)?
But on the other hand, personalities must have played a part. One of the great what-ifs of history must be whether its course would have been different if the German Emperor Frederick, liberal, pacifist in outlook, and married to Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, had not died of throat cancer only 99 days into his reign, to be succeeded by his ambitious, militaristic and frankly rather odd son, 'Kaiser Bill'?
Queen Mary famously wrote to her (German) aunt on 28 July 1914: 'God grant that we may not have a European war thrust upon us, and for such a stupid reason too, no I don't mean stupid, but to have to go to war on account of tiresome Serbia beggars belief.' One suspects that a similar sense of disbelief was the predominant reaction around the world at the end of July 1914.

ISP arrest man who allegedly shot at trooper
COLLINSVILLE — The Illinois State Police arrested Gregory K. Nelson, 52, of East St. Louis, Saturday.
The arrest took place at approximately 5:45 p.m. Nelson was taken into custody by the U.S Marshals Service and the Illinois State Police at an apartment in St. Ann, Mo. The fugitive felony warrant was served without incident.
Nelson is being charged with attempted first degree murder, aggravated discharge of a firearm and unlawful use of weapons by a felon. The charges stem from a shooting that occurred on the I-255 northbound entrance ramp from State Street in East St. Louis.
On June 23, at approximately 11:30 p.m., a trooper conducted a traffic stop on the northbound entrance ramp to I-255 from State Street in East St. Louis. The trooper, a nine-year veteran, suspected that the driver, Nelson, was intoxicated and asked Nelson to exit the vehicle for field sobriety testing.
At some point, while Nelson was outside of the vehicle, Nelson pulled out a gun and fired at the trooper. The trooper returned fire and Nelson fled the scene on foot. Neither the trooper nor Nelson were injured during the incident.
Nelson currently is being held by authorities in Missouri pending extradition to Illinois.

The Amble Marshes was once a salt-marsh, but the valley was dammed and the river canalised in 1963/64 to protect the village of Chapel Amble from flooding. The area is now an area of arable and pasture fields dominated by the CBWPS reserve, Walmsley Sanctuary and a recently purchased reserve to it's north.
The CBWPS have had a presence in the valley since 1938 when it purchased the shooting rights to the Lower Amble Marshes, the following year it purchased the land making this it's first bird reserve.
The reserve was given statutory protection under the Wild Bird Protection (Cornwall) Order in 1948 with the Amble Marshes, (including Walmsley Sanctuary) , being notified a SSSI under the National Parks and Access to the Countryside Act of 1949. In 1961 the reserve was made a statutory Bird Reserve under the Protection of Birds Act 1954, replacing the earlier 1948 Act. The 1961 Act was repealed but the reserve retained legal protection with a status equivalent to an Area of Special Protection under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981. The SSSI was renotified in 1986 under the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981.
Unfortunately the damming of the River Amble meant that the reserve became pasture land and as such the number of species dropped with the area becoming unsuitable for numerous species that once used it. The CBWPS in both 1974 and 1986 attempted to hold water on the site with limited success. In 1991, work stated on creating the present bunged area with the help of the NRA. This area now holds water throughout the year, providing safe roosting and feeding areas.
The valley has recently been re-flooded by the Environment Agency and the River Amble has been put back to almost it's original course.
The area is an important wetland site with large numbers of wintering waterfowl and many breeding species.
Although there is no access to Walmsley Sanctuary a public hide is sited in the western corner (blue), and a members only hide (pink), along the western edge. The area can be viewed from the public footpaths that encircle the valley and Walmsley Sanctuary.

Mission Moment (June 4, 2012)
Save Pakistan's pastors ordained four young men to go into the mission field to win souls for the Lord. Pastor Ishtiaq prepared them to go to reach out into unreached areas of Pakistan. They were very passionate and have great zeal to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ.
"I would like to ask you to pray for them as they are ready to go in the field to proclaim the Gospel in different areas of Pakistan," evangelist Haseeb said. "Your prayers will be much fruitful for them to encourage and to keep moving in the harvest."

Regulatory Update: 15/2015Issued: 13th August 2015
On 6 August the Chemicals Regulation Directorate issued a letter setting out the UK's approach to the monitoring and enforcement of MRLs set for DDAC and BAC which come in to force from 12 August 2015.
The letter was initially sent to stakeholders who attended a meeting with CRD and FSA officials on 17 July. However, given the widespread use of DDAC and BAC as biocides in food processing and preparation, this regulatory update has been issued to draw wider attention to the content of the letter.
The letter sets out the background to the setting of MRLs , the UK's approach to monitoring and enforcement, how the MRLs apply with respect to processed foods, and the importance of food businesses reviewing their treatment practices to ensure compliance whilst maintaining food hygiene standards. Food businesses should take note of the full content of the letter, but important points are summarised below.
Revised statutory MRLs 0.1 mg/kg for DDAC and BAC residues will be enforced from 12 August 2015 and apply to all foods produced from that date. All parties involved in the processing, preparation, distribution or sale of food must comply with the levels set. However foods that were already in the distribution chain before 12 August will continue to be subject to non-statutory guideline MRLs of 0.5 mg/kg.
DDAC and BAC residue monitoring will be included in HSE's routine programme of monitoring, and results will be published by the Expert Committee on Pesticide Residues in Food (PRiF) in the normal way.
The MRLs set will apply to all foods irrespective of whether they have been processed. In most cases HSE will not apply processing factors in determining whether the MRL has been complied with.
Because MRLs are set below any level likely to cause harm to the consumer, if a residue is found above the MRL this will not automatically result in a rapid alert notification being issued.
Both HSE and the FSA recognise the importance of biocide use in maintaining food safety and encourage all food businesses to review their uses of DDAC and BAC to ensure compliance with MRLs.

Personal Musings: Letting Go of Things You Can't Control
The past few months I've been going through intense depression. I'm not able to focus on my work, sometimes I lash out on my family. A lot of thoughts are going in my head trying to find answers to questions like;
- Why is this happening to me?
- Why do they get these so and so opportunities and not me, when I deserve better
- When will this suffering end?
- How can I make-up for my wrong-doings?
- I wish I can turn back time
- What can I do to make you love me? (yes, the song from The Corrs)
I was losing sleep, and losing my mind. Repeating different scenarios over and over in my head. What if I do this? Will it make it better? What if I had done this? Would things be different? Are you missing someone? Call them 100 times in their phones and each time is unanswered. Leave hundreds of messages and all you get is seenzoned (I'm exagerating but you get my point). Eventually you'll get tired.
But this morning I realized. The only thing we have control of is ourselves. Not your boyfriend, not your friend, not anyone or anything. We cannot force ourselves to someone who doesn't even care. No matter what we do we cannot change their minds. What can we do? Let go and let it be. Sure there are days that we'll still feel sad and empty inside. We're only human. But at least make an effort to take care of yourself. While waiting for that opportunity, your soulmate, or anything you want. Try to focus on YOU.
Dress well, eat well, enrich your soul with knowledge. Learn something new, do something you haven't done before. This might sound cliche but learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all (yes I'm quoting another song this time from Whitney Houston).
I'm letting go not for anyone else, but for myself. I don't know how long I can keep up with this. Being bipolar is a constant struggle. I may sound sane today, but I don't know tomorrow.

We've reached the second Pro Tour — ahem, Mythic Championship — of the season, and together, Team Face to Face Games has really hit our stride.
I feel we've really started to get to know each other and have begun refining our testing process. I'm writing this article Wednesday night, just after decklists have been submitted. We spent the first few weeks after Ravnica Alligence's release almost purely on Limited. Most of the team attended Grand Prix New Jersey, with one poor soul forgetting a crucial step in the trip planning process.
Skipping my flight for #MTGNJ because I forgot to reg. No one to blame but myself, but I got other events coming up to look forward to. Rooting for @Fozefy and @Eli_Kassis to hit platinum, @tirentu to unwash himself, and @drood519 to prove to everyone he's still one of the greats
— Edgar Magalhaes (@EdgarMTG) January 25, 2019
Luckily the good luck offered from Mr. Magalhaes helped propel me to Platinum status after a 12-3 finish. I went over my process for quickly learning a new Limited format here, and it again proved fruitful. After spending the first few weeks focusing on Limited the team was ready to start testing Standard in earnest. Following a similar approach to what I'd explain in Limited the team started by playing as many decks as possible and collating all of our early results. Early on our team's most promising deck was Esper Control. Edgar Top 8'd an SCG Open event with it and that very quickly sold the Esper Professor himself, Shaheen Soorani. However, something much sweeter was on the horizon — but more on that later. Esper Control looked to be in quite a good spot with good matchups against most of the aggro decks and a slightly positive matchup against the most highly represented deck — Sultai Explore.
As the format has continued to evolve Mono-Blue has risen to prominence, and this spelled some trouble for Esper. Playing a reactive deck that needed to have answers to such a diverse field wasn't really something that seemed plausible at the highest level. It's just too hard to beat Mono-Blue, Mon-Red and then switch gears and go long with Sultai. Mono-Blue's rise was heavily influenced by the success of fellow Canadian Alexander Hayne's week long rise and status at #1 Mythic on Arena while publicly streaming all of his matches.
With most of the MPL players publicly streaming it has changed our testing process. Everyone gets a look into the set of decks the best players in the world are considering for the Mythic Championship. While some teams and players may be hiding information, players only have so many hours in the day to focus on Magic, so it should be a fair assumption that most aren't hiding much. This leads to a lot more open environment to what other teams may be considering.
In any case, with most of the team gathered at a house in Cleveland on Monday with fresh results from GP Memphis to go over we began jamming all of the top decks against each other. At the same time we'd begun exploring various rogue strategies revolving around the most powerful new addition to the Standard format Wilderness Reclamation. With Mono-blue causing Shaheen some trouble and Nexus negating the Teferi loop win-condition he'd abandoned his flagship shard and brewed up a new Sultai Reclamation control deck. Sultai got to add potent threats doubling as card advantage against Mono-blue in Hydroid Krasis and Ooze allowing the deck to put a clock on Mono-blue forcing them to play a more proactive game plan rather than sitting back trying to protect a single threat. Meanwhile Eli brewed up a Temur Reclamation deck adding to the stock Simic Nexus deck with Niv-Mizzet and Expansion // Explosion. This change of end game allowed the deck a more effective way of fighting through counterspells with Niv-Mizzet being the ultimate end game against both Mono-blue and Esper Control which we were looking at as the top two deck.
Sultai Control – Shaheen Soorani
Our next step was creating a quick overview of the format to give ourselves a general picture of each of the top deck's strengths and weaknesses. To create it we sat together and built a matchup matrix containing every deck's rough matchup percentages. Obviously these matchups should all be taken with a grain of salt as specific lists can vary greatly within a deck, but we tried considering mostly "stock lists" that had been doing well in the previous Grand Prix and other events. We also were much more sure of some matchups than others, but in any case it at least provides a very general understanding of the format.
We then attempted to roughly predict our expected meta, and compared that to the GP Memphis Day 2 metagame. From this data we were then able to generate approximate win rates for each deck in our matrix. One note about the data below is that this only considered the early tournament metagame rather than the expected 10 round win-rate, which would require much more sophisticated statistics with what we felt would be minimal strategic gain.
Team Face to Face Games Expected Metagame:
Grand Prix Memphis Day 2 Metagame
This metagame includes roughly 20 per cent of decks not included in our matrix, so for these purposes we just normalized the data ignoring those matchups. For one reason or another we hadn't tested much with the decks outside of this set and therefore just didn't have enough data to understand those matchups fully.
From this data the Temur Reclamation deck stood on top and got most of the team's attention as a deck to really start considering. While we realized it had very poor white and red aggro matchups we felt that it had positive matchups across the board outside of those decks and the percentages worked out such that we thought we'd create the best possible win-rate. From there we spent the next two days tuning the list to where it is now. While we were unable to really fix the aggressive matchups, we feel very strongly about our plans in all of the other matchups listed in both pre and post board games. Therefore if our predictions were correct we felt that as long as we could dodge those deck early we'd become less and less likely to face them as the tournament went on. In this regard we were looking especially at our worst matchup in Mono-Red and it's low expected win rate. Overall this format has shaped up to be fairly polarizing — every deck has strategic weak points.
The major stand out for us was the sheer power of Biogenic Ooze with Wilderness Reclamation in post-board games. We had initially been unsure about how our changes from the Simic Nexus deck would affect our Sultai matchup, but after trying the Ooze plan we were quickly sold. The post-board games are where midrange decks generally improve their matchups against combo style decks such like ours, when they get to cut all of their removal. However, the Ooze plan puts them in a major bind where they need to respect the threat with some amount of removal spells or quickly die in a slimy mess. While I'd originally missed the Wilderness Reclamation interaction I'm glad my original prediction about the card's power has proved correct.
While the Face to Face team and friends had some variation in our lists, we got over half of the group on the deck. This is the list myself, Edgar and Jacob Baugh registered for Mythic Championship Cleveland. Eli Kassis and Pascal Maynard also chose the archetype, but ended up being a few cards different. Pascal tested remotely and ended up the most divergent from the team with the most questionable change being him opting to only play two Opt.
Temur Reclamation – Morgan McLaughlin
Shaheen also stuck closely to his original reclamation Sultai Control list. He preferred a more controlling approach to the archetype than the more combo-oriented Reclamation plus Explosion or Niv-Mizzet end game. Gabriel Nassif and Pete Ingram decided to go with Sultai because they wanted a more balanced deck with reasonable matchups across the board. This allowed them to not have to worry as much about the polarizing matchups of reclamation. They'd also found a plan they liked against the reclamation decks we'd been testing and decided they could attempt to leverage play skill against the deck's worst matchup — Rakdos Midrange.
Sultai Explore – Pete Ingram
In any case, we've now got a day to go before we begin to find out the results of our team's hard work and I'm hoping for some good luck in the next few days. Hopefully when this article gets posted we'll have been validated with some solid team finishes!

Personal profile
Research interests
I am an award-winning film writer, director and producer, appointed in 2011 after six years as Lead Tutor at the Met Film School in London. After completing an Honours Degree in Film & English Studies at UEA under the tutelage of Charles Barr and Laura Mulvey, I made my feature film debut writing, producing and directing the pioneering micro-budget 'Inbetweeners'. Released by Universal Pictures, it became the first fully digital film ever to play the UK multiplexes.
My most recent feature, the alternate-reality romantic mystery 'Frequencies' (formerly 'OXV: The Manual') won a raft of awards on its festival run and was released in cinemas across the US to rave reviews: The New York Times called it "fiercely intelligent", Indiewire called it "a wildly original sci-fi treat", Ain't It Cool News "adored it", and The Hollywood Reporter commented that it had "the political heft of a 1984 or Brave New World".
Currently, I am in development across a range of film and television projects both in Australia and the US, as well as completing a PhD on the practice of narrative feature filmmaking.
I am a member of the ADG, a full voting member of BAFTA and regularly sit on industry and festival panels, as well as occasionally appearing on British television as a film pundit and summariser.

EAST ORANGE, NJ — As Mayor Ted Green approaches the first 100 days of his tenure, East Orange City Council members are carefully observing how he assembles his administration.
"The mayor is coming up on the end of his first 100 days and I know that one of his main priorities is assembling the team that he wants to assemble, so we're giving him the leeway we think he needs to do that," said East Orange City Council Chairman Romal Bullock on Tuesday, April 10. "We granted it mainly because, while he's trying to assemble his team, I'm not sure what his plans are. I know there are other department head positions that got extended, too. He's probably weighing his options and I think we're all giving him the opportunity to do that. We worked with him all these years, when he was on the council, so we know what kind of leader that he is, so we're trying to support him and give him as many options as we can."
1st Ward Councilwoman Amy Lewis, who chairs the Public Safety Committee, echoed Bullock's sentiments, and explained why council had decided to give acting Public Safety Department Director Sheilah Coley a 45-day extension to her temporary appointment at the regular meeting on Monday, March 26. According to state law and the Faulkner Act, all appointed department heads and city employees "serve at the pleasure of the mayor," with the consent of city council.
Normally, a mayor hires or appoints a department head, who the council approves, and that person serves in an "acting" capacity for as long as 90 days, before council decides whether to give final them final approval for regular full-time job. Usually, council approves the mayor's choice, but sometimes decides not to give final approval, and the mayor has to either appoint someone else or ask council for an extension. Green asked council for a 45-day extension for Coley, which was approved; she wasn't the only department head whose term was extended.
The difference between Coley and the others who received extensions is that Green promised to make public safety a priority in his new administration, even before his transition team's public safety meeting took place, at which residents related stories about shootings, burglaries, car thefts, carjackings and other concerns.
"Several directors' 90-day periods (were) extended; however, I am looking forward to Director Coley being confirmed," said Lewis on Tuesday, April 3. "In July 2017, crime in East Orange was up 29 percent. Director Coley was placed over in operations, in an effort to reduce that percentage. Her strategy and expertise, along with her staff assistance, brought crime down 20 percent in our city. That is progress!"
Coley thanked Lewis for her support and for recognizing the work her officers have been doing. She said the extension of her status as acting director is not an issue.
"That was done with all of the directors," said Coley on Tuesday, April 10. "With 23 directors, it would take an inordinate amount of time for the council to interview all of the appointees. So I wasn't concerned about the extension."
Coley said she's grateful for Green making public safety a priority in his new administration and added that she will make the most of it.
"My plan for driving down crime began in October last year," said Coley. "I had a plan I was ready to roll out on Jan. 1 and that's exactly what we did. We got through the first quarter with an 18 percent crime reduction. We're sitting at a 21 percent reduction right now. We won the first quarter, so now we're gearing up again and preparing for the second quarter, because it's my intention to win that as well and I think we're well on our way."

Easter is coming!!
Can you believe Easter is just around the corner!! You've undoubtedly seen the shelves in your local supermarkets filled with chocolate Easter Eggs (some since January!) but we thought we'd give you a bit of a trip down memory lane to where it all began…
…As we're sure you know Easter is a Christian festival celebrating death and then then resurrection of Jesus Christ – however how does this link to an egg and even chocolate! Well as Christianity rose in Western Europe the egg was adopted as a symbol new life and as such many people began decorating duck and hen eggs at Easter to celebrate. In the 17th and 18th century this moved on to egg shaped toys and eggs filled with gifts and chocolate…then we got to the 19th century where chocolate eggs were introduced by the French and Germans.
As time went on the chocolate egg grew in popularity with Cadbury's bringing their first Easter Egg to the market in 1875.
Today however their are numerous manufactures of chocolate Easter Eggs bringing them out in all sizes and styles ranging from shell eggs to sugar coated and even filled eggs! What's your favourite?
Why not have a look on our occasions section and see our Mini Egg Jar or Easter Sweet Gift Box for something different this year which you won't find in the shops!

I had no idea what to expect when Paige booked me for her wedding film, but I love surprises! Upon arriving at the house for prep that morning, I was greeted by Paige's gorgeous smile, and warm, welcoming nature, and I knew it was going to be a great day! The wedding party was full of energy and had great stories to share about Paige and Mike. Mike came to Lexington to finish his medical degree and met Paige out one evening after a day at Keeneland.
Our day began with prep at a beautiful mansion, where all the girls were having hair and makeup done by the marvelous Ana Crane of Applied Cosmetics Services. Across town, the men were getting ready and celebrating Mike's soon to be marriage to Paige, with a first sight quickly approaching. We had the great pleasure of working with photographer Sherri Barbour out of Cincinnati, fun, talented and provided a great lighting seminar throughout the day!
Paige and Mike had a beautiful ceremony held at Central Christian Church, and a gorgeous reception at the Lexington Country Club with entertainment provided by 64 West, a fabulous band!

Mom Was Not Searching for a Boca Raton Education Therapist – and she found 3D Learner
Cathy was searching for a dyslexia treatment in Boca Raton. She then read this article on "When Orton Gillingham is not enough?" She was not aware of the concept of an Education Therapist that the article describes. She asked Denise, who said, "There is a different way to look at it, "is it dyslexia, a visual learner or a visual learner with dyslexia?"" Her friend said that she too had gone through years of Orton-Gillingham before she googled the term Boca Raton Education Therapist and discovered 3D Learner – who recognized that many students with dyslexia are a visual learner with dyslexia.
Denise shared that there was a significant overlap between a child labeled with dyslexia and the visual learner – and that most students with dyslexia are actually a visual learner with dyslexia.
Here are the typical questions and answers we get:
- Who diagnosed your child with dyslexia? A psychologist was the answer
- What dyslexia treatment options did he give you? Two Orton-Gillingham tutors and the Lindmood-Bell Program (R)
- Does your child remember places visited – even from years ago? Yes — he remembers places visited from years ago — some of which I have forgotten
- Does your child learn best when he sees and experiences information? Definitely was the answer
"it appears your child is a visual learner with dyslexia — now there are three other questions to consider
- Does your child have difficulty paying attention to that which is boring?
- Does your child skip words and lines when reading? I am not sure was the response
- Is your child a lot smarter than present results would indicate? absolutely was the answer
"I am a Boca Raton Education Therapist", said Mira Halpert, the 3D Learner Program (R) Developer and we have helped thousands of students from 40 states and 12 foreign countries.
Is Your Child with Dyslexia a Visual Learner with Dyslexia and Other Processing Challenges?
Cathy asked, "this sounds like my child. and is there an online way to check to see if my child is a visual learner and if he has attention, eye issues or related challenges.
Denise gave Cathy the link to our Success Assessment
Cathy did just this and was delighted to discover that her child was a visual learner with attention and visual processing challenges, and that help was on the way.
At 3D Learner, we often see students with dyslexia who are either:
- Searching for a better answer after they have been through several years of dyslexia treatments without the desired results
- New to the process
We also have parents who are unsure of what is wrong with their child, and are delighted to discover an approach that capitalizes on their child's strengths
For more information:
- Take our Success Assessment with your child — his or her answers may surprise you. You will receive immediate feedback
- Then, call us for a no cost Stress to Success Strategy Session at 561-361-7495.

Product Description
The Good Deed Christmas Elf Kit provides children with a magical way to do nice things for others over the festive season and beyond.
The concept of the Good Deed Elf is simple. The adults leave Aggi the Elf and a 'Good Deed Quest Card' somewhere in the house while children are sleeping. Choose the daily quest for the child to complete from a pack of 10 pre-printed cards, each containing different things for them to do for others.
This kit also encourages children to be thoughtful all year round. It contains a 'Good Deeds I Did' card where children can make note of the nice things they did for others during the next year.
A Elf Mail postcard sent by Santa from the North Pole contains instructions on the The Good Deed Christmas Elf Kit.
The Good Deed Christmas Elf Kit contains:
- 1 rustic, handmade 'Aggi' the Good Deed Elf – ready to be given a home
- 1 Elf Mail Postcard and envelope – contains information and instructions on how to complete Aggi's quests
- 10 'Good Deed Quest Cards' – each one pre-printed with a thoughtful act for the child to complete
- 10 mini kraft envelopes – to seal the quest cards in, ready to be discovered each morning
- 1 linen pouch containing 10 wooden 'Love' hearts – to be given out to each person the child has helped
- 1 'Good Deeds I Did' card – to record even more thoughtful acts completed over the course of the next year
- 1 kraft presentation bag – complete with a personalised tag printed with the child's name, hand tied with festive gingham ribbon.
You can also choose from two elf designs:
- Aggi with a red hat
- Aggi with a cream, patterned hat
Above all, Aggi the Good Deed Elf is very flexible and has a wild imagination. Parents – get creative!
Ideas on where to leave your elf…
Baking cakes for a neighbour? Pop Aggi in a mixing bowl with a wooden spoon and a bit of flour on Aggi's hat!
Donating old clothes to charity? Hide Aggi in the wardrobe or poking out of an old shoe!
Sitting next to someone new at lunch time? Prop Aggi up on top of a lunchbox, with a bite taken out of an apple!

Kannan K.
Director, Global Program Leader, Oncology Therapeutic Area Unit (OTAU)
Boston, Massachusetts
Employee Since 2009
On A Personal Mission to Help Others
In 2009, Kannan joined Takeda's oncology discovery department. Fast-forward three role changes and years later, today, Kannan works as a Global Program Leader in the clinical development part of the organization. From strategy to operations to delivery, he is responsible for asset development specifically within the Oncology Therapeutic Area Unit (OTAU). As a Global Program Leader, he helps innovative medicines get to patients faster, so they can live healthier lives.
Though Takeda has a large global footprint, Kannan was drawn to the small company feeling he experienced during his initial interviews. After a decade, Kannan stays motivated and engaged by Takeda's commitment to people -- patients, employees, and the community. He feels grounded in the company's long history of patient-centricity, and appreciates the personal development and career growth opportunities available to him and other employees..
Inspired to find new ways to put patients first, Kannan, along with others, saw an opportunity within Takeda. Having many years of experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, they knew few organizations offer R&D teams the opportunity to connect with real patients. What if they could bring together employees and the patients who benefit from the treatments they develop?
In collaboration with colleagues from discovery, development and patient advocacy groups within the organization, Kannan created opportunities to bring patients into Takeda's laboratories. This allows scientists, technicians, and R&D teams working on various treatments to have the chance to meet with and hear directly from patients. The program helps R&D employees better understand the physical and emotional challenges patients face while overcoming their diseases. These vital interactions lead to greater empathy and understanding, inspire them to do even more to meet the needs of patients, and bring further meaning to their work.
When asked what keeps him motivated, he shares that it's Takeda's commitment to improving the health and well-being of all people. He says, "When we hear patients are benefitting from the treatment we're developing, it excites us and also reminds us that we're not done yet."
"When I hear patients are benefitting from the treatment we're developing, it excites us and reminds us that we're not done yet."
As he reflects on his career path at Takeda, Kannan appreciates the managers who have mentored him along the way. "Leadership's willingness to help employees find their passion is really important here, and something that sets Takeda apart from other companies." The company's size and environment empowers employees to learn about other parts of the business and helps them continue to grow.
Working at Takeda in the dynamic, biotech hub of Boston is exhilarating. "Takeda is not afraid of trying and exploring new things," he shares. "We're not afraid to make tough decisions and difficult choices. We haven't shied away. We've been bold." He believes the recent Shire acquisition is an example of being bold in becoming a global leader in the biopharmaceutical industry. It demonstrates how the company wants to continue to be innovative and to forge a new path on its already historic journey.
Kannan loves living and working in Boston. He believes it's a one-of-a-kind place, where you can find smart, data-driven, opinionated people from all types of fields and backgrounds. Kannan says, "Boston is the one place where you can stop a random person on the street, and the chance of having a highly intellectual conversation is 95%." He says being surrounded by so much brain power is energizing.
Kannan's passion for helping others extends beyond Takeda. He has co-founded multiple non-profits in the Boston area to support education and careers in science and pharmaceutics.
When asked what the future holds for Takeda, Kannan says he is most excited about the acquisition of Shire; the largest-ever for Takeda and a truly transformational move for the company. He is eager for Takeda to bring Shire's expertise in rare diseases into its portfolio. For Kannan, this holds the potential to impact millions of more people all around the world. He looks forward to seeing Takeda build upon its team, its expertise, and its R&D-driven approach to innovative medicines.

Our service was set up to provide the people of Rhondda Cynon Taff and Merthyr Tydfil with courses that are designed to teach ways of managing depression, anxiety and stress.
Antidepressants work. They're essential for some people but unfortunately, they're not the whole story. Those of us who struggle with anxiety or depression usually need to make changes ourselves to manage all the effects of these issues.
The courses teach people how to make changes to the way they think and what to do so as to feel better. So far we have lots of feedback from people who have completed the courses saying how much they have helped do just that.
At Valleys Steps we would like people to feel able to attend a course when they first start noticing stress building up rather than, as many of us tend to do, wait until they are really struggling before getting help. We hope that this option might be used alongside antidepressant medication so that we might combat all the effects of these common mental health problems. It also provides the tools for the longer term and effective skills to replace medication.
So here are our views of the recent discussions. One from Sue Nam, Chair of Valleys Steps and a retired consultant clinical psychologist and the other from Professor Jonathan Richards, retired local GP, and Valleys Steps Trustee and Volunteer.
Are antidepressants the answer?
Sue Nam, Chair of Valleys Steps and a retired consultant clinical psychologist
"Valleys Steps' aim has always been to reduce prescriptions for antidepressants and to promote a better approach to overcoming depression. Now suddenly there are reports in the media that antidepressants are beneficial – so what's the truth?
These messages may appear to contradict one another but in reality they don't.
Leaving aside illnesses such as Bipolar Disorder, both everyday anxieties and feelings of depression are rooted in thinking habits. It's our thoughts that cause our emotions.
You only have to imagine how you'd feel if you won the lottery tonight or you were told you were about to be made redundant. You can probably predict exactly how each of these events would make you feel. Those feelings would develop as a direct result of the way you'd be thinking about the event. What will you spend the winnings on? Or how will you survive without a job?
This was a message that I found people were very reluctant to accept in my lifetime's work as a clinical psychologist. Nearly everyone wanted a pill to take away the problems. But a pill can't change what's happening in your life and it can't change how you'll feel about it for good.
Anyone who's ever had a drink to "drown their sorrows" will know only too well that whilst under the influence you can forget your troubles… But then when it wears off, you feel even worse than you did before.
It's not what happens to us that causes the way we feel. It's how we THINK about what has happened. Two people can have exactly the same experience. One will be devastated whilst the other will just shrug it off. It's all down to the ways we have grown up viewing our world.
For many of us these ways are not always helpful. Although we don't intend to learn them, we do. Negative thinking habits are far more damaging to our mental health than the events that trigger them.
The only long term answer for a happier life is to learn different ways of viewing the world that are more helpful. That's where the techniques taught by Valleys Steps come in.
Sometimes someone is feeling too low to be able to focus on learning something new. That's where antidepressants can help. But they're not a long term cure.
Antidepressants are really beneficial in order to provide a temporary lift so that you are in a position to make more permanent changes.
Sometimes they might lift the person's mood enough for them to forget whatever it was that caused the low mood. That's all well and good but the unhelpful thinking habits will still bother ready to strike again the next time something goes wrong.
Antidepressants are a great short term solution but they are not the long term answer.
If you have headache that's preventing you from doing what you need to do, you take a pill to get rid of it. Once in a while that's ok. If, on the other hand, you are needing to take headache tablets every day in order to function that suggests something more serious is going on and bigger changes are needed.
So, there's no contradiction really. If mood is so low that there's no ability to focus or concentrate on other things then a short term antidepressant prescription can be useful – but the important words are "short term". Only a change of thinking habits and understanding of their power will provide a more permanent solution.
That is why often a GP will only prescribe antidepressants for a short while and will expect you to also participate in a course of some kind (such as mindfulness) that will teach you techniques that will help avoid such low mood episodes in the future as well as increasing your ability to enjoy every day"
What about medication for depression?
Professor Jonathan Richards, retired local GP, and Valleys Steps Trustee and Volunteer
"I worked for more than thirty years as a general practitioner serving a community in which depression, anxiety and other mental health problems were very common.
I have had three episodes of low mood and depression that would have "qualified" as being 'clinical depression' using a well-known depression rating questionnaire.
I used medication as a way of helping people and did not ask for medication for myself.
Another report has been published to much publicity with the headlines that
- antidepressants do work,
- their side effects are not as bad when balanced out against their potential benefits and
- people are missing out on their benefits because they are not taking them.
Social media has carried opinions about these conclusions; people are asking questions, especially those living with a mental health and well-being difficulty and their families, colleagues and friends. What is true? What should I do for myself? What should I do for someone I care about? I shall try to summarise what you would have heard if you had consulted with me and asked these questions.
There are a number of controversies and disagreements about the issues with strong and opposing opinions on each side; therefore you may not find one, clear answer to your questions.
I find it helpful to remember that most, if not all, questionnaires to "diagnose" a mental health problem were developed by people funded by drug companies to maximise their sales. Each person's experience is unique, in that moment and depends on all sorts of things like their social support, their resilience, their experience of how family members would deal with stress and worries and their knowledge of and ability to use coping strategies. In my case, I could vary my questionnaire score from 'mild depression' to 'severe depression' by changed answers to just a few questions asking how often I had experienced the feelings.
In my experience a depression questionnaire often did not match someone's lived experiences. Some people had a high score and were coping whilst others were poleaxed with a low score. I was very fortunate as I was able to immediately take time off work and drop commitments that I was juggling. I also have a strong history of depression running in my family and it helped to think: "I am not as ill as my mum was, or her dad was."
There are different theories about why people experience low mood or become depressed ranging from biological (changes in brain chemicals) to social (how you cope with bad things that happen to you). In my experience each theory helps me to understand what is happening in your life at the moment. Some people can cope well with all sorts of life experiences whilst others can be plunged to hopeless depths.
Some people do need medication to be healthy When I judged that someone did need medication in this way we would discuss side effects and duration of treatment, after all they are the experts in what is happening to them, what their responsibilities are in this moment and how they can manage their complex lives. Most people who I talked with did not fit into this category.
Everyone can benefit from Mindfulness and the wisdom of the lessons in the Valleys Steps courses. Applying them in my own life during a recent episode made a big difference. Everyone can benefit from taking more exercise, especially people with anger difficulties. (One interesting insight that helped me to understand people is that depression is often 'anger turned in on yourself'). Depression causes poor sleep patterns and impaired sleep causes depression so it is very important to pay attention to 'sleep hygiene'. This is covered with great practical advice in Session 6 of the Stress Control Course.
I do have a concern about the recent research findings for people in Wales. They confirm a study some ten years ago that reported on which medications were thought to be the most helpful with the lowest risk of side effects. I hope that someone who asks to try the medications highlighted in the recent reports will be able to make use of them".
