Yes, Christians realize that. Do you realize that Christians were largely responsible for ending slavery worldwide? Yes, it was Christians like William Wilberforce that helped end slavery.
The world is filled with injustices and suffering and Christians did not end all of them. Christians are a part of the social network and changes take time. However Christians are also responsible for instituting public education for the lower classes. Christians opened the first general hospitals, the first orphanages, and pushed for social justice for the marginalized.
When social norms believed in witches causing horrible things to happen, they targeted witches. Christians zeal to correct social problems have sometimes caused them to go awry. This is also true for the Crusades and the Spanish Inquisition. Yes, it would be nice if Christians never made any mistakes, but Christians are also humans, and often driven by perceptions common in society.

Yep, that happened. And as someone else has noted, the whole international campaign to make slavery illegal was also largely driven by Christians. (I can't claim much credit for my own denomination; it was mostly the Quakers and Methodists who did that.)
The overall lesson here, I think, is that finding a way to justify bad actions using the Bible (or any other source) doesn't make the actions good or just. In the same way, finding an excuse to claim someone else's actions are evil using our interpretation of the Bible (or any other source) doesn't necessarily make the actions evil.
Good and evil are still concepts we argue about. When, as illustrated in the Garden of Eden myth, humanity acquired the "knowledge" of good and evil, that just meant we acquired awareness of the labels, and the ability to argue about them--not any innate ability to be sure which is which.
The problem of deciding which is which is argued about in the rest of the Bible (everything after Genesis chapter 3) and throughout the rest of human history, including Christian history. So far, the best decision principle we've got appears to be the Golden Rule: treat others the way we (if we were in the same circumstances) would want to be treated.

Christians sin! What do you expect? Christians are human, and all humans sin. But they repent of their sins and do their best to remain close to God. Of course, there are those who call themselves Christian, but pay no attention to God's Law or the teachings of Jesus Christ. Therefore they are not truly Christian.
alot of christians dont repent.after all like i said they think they have the bible on their side. and its the old excuse again "they arent really christians"

Many children already find it difficult enough to memorize the 6, 7, 8 and 9 multiplication tables. You can only imagine how difficult it would be for them to consistently remember the 13 times table, especially when the number is multiplied by the numbers four to ten. There is, however, a quick and unique way to remember the 13 times table that can be very useful not only to your child but also to yourself.
A simple trick to memorize the 13 times table
The technique, as a matter of fact, is so ridiculously simple that you can't help but wonder why no one taught you this trick to memorize the 13 times table when you were a child. Then again, I'm speaking for myself here, because nobody actually taught me this neat trick to memorize the 13 times table as a kid.
Now let me present the trick to memorize the 13 times table. This trick to memorize the 13 times table involves writing down the 1 and 3 times tables side by side.
For the numbers 1, 2 and 3 of the 1 times table, all you need to do is combine them with the figures right beside them on the 3 times table. That means you combine 1 with 3, 2 with 6 and 3 with 9, and you'll come up with the first three parts of the 13 times table. As for the numbers 4 to 10, all you need to do is add each number to the first digit of the figure next to it in the 3 times table, and you'll take care of the 13 times table business rather easily.
To clearly illustrate this trick to memorize the 13 times table:
1 3 (13)
2 6 (26)
3 9 (39)
4 12 (52)
5 15 (65)
6 18 (78)
7 21 (91)
8 24 (104)
9 27 (117)
10 30 (130)
See how easy that is? This trick to memorize the 13 times table could have saved me a lot of time when I was in school, but that's okay. At least I can now teach this to my kids and make their lives easier. It makes a neat addition to all the other tips for memorizing times tables out there.

Things got very heated today on ABC's "The View" when Don Jr. and his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle showed up.
There were the usual hysterical over-emotional outbursts from the hosts, along with a lot of shouting, yelling, and a bunch of incorrect information being spewed out at record-speed.
But the best part of the appearance, was when Don Jr.actually called out Whoopi Goldberg for defending child rapist Roman Polanski when she dismissed his rape of a 15-year-old by saying it wasn't really "rape." She got vert "triggered." hahaha.
Here's the backstory on that incident from 2009:
Goldberg, star of The Color Purple and Sister Act, said: "I know it wasn't rape-rape. I think it was something else, but I don't believe it was rape-rape.
"He pled guilty to having sex with a minor and he went to jail, and when they let him out he said 'You know what, this guy's going to give me 100 years in jail. I'm not staying'. And that's why he left." Polanski was arrested in Zurich, Switzerland on Sunday and faces extradition to the United States. He fled the US in 1978 before being sentenced for the crime and has been pursued around the globe by prosecutors ever since.
His victim, Samantha Gailey, told a grand jury that the director had plied her with champagne and drugs and taken nude pictures of her in a hot tub during a fashion shoot. Polanski then had sexual intercourse with her despite her resistance and requests to be taken home, she said.
The director originally faced charges including rape and sodomy but they were dismissed following plea bargaining and he admitted unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor.[Telegraph.co]

Don Jr. also went after Joy Behar for wearing blackface – he called her on right there on live TV. She acted "shocked" and denied it.
So, Don Jr. made sure to tweet out the picture that very clearly shows Joy Behar dressed up as a black woman.
Here's the picture of @TheView's Joy Behar in blackface. #FactsFirst https://t.co/Qi884fWOox

The ladies of "The View" are just on a TV show spouting their "feelings" and emotions. They have no facts to back up anything they say. And when they're called on their hypocrisy, they recoil and shriek in agony.
The heated dustup comes around the 1-minute mark:
.@DonaldJTrumpJr just shut down "The View."

ch 20-Cardiovasc BV
Ch 20 Cardiovascular System-Blood Vessels-Posner class-BSC2086
|Blood is carried
|in a closed system of vessels that begins and ends at the heart
|The three major types of vessels are
|arteries, capillaries, and veins Arteries carry blood
|veins carry blood
|toward the heart
|Capillaries contact
|tissue cells
|Capillaries directly serve
|cellular needs
|The three tunics that arteries and veins are composed of
|tunica interna (intima), tunica media, and tunica externa
|central blood-containing space surrounded by tunics
|the tunica intima
|reduces friction between the blood and the
|the tunica media
|controls vasoconstriction and vasodilation
|the tunica externa ________, _______ & ______the blood vessel to surrounding structures
|protects, reinforces and anchors
|Elastic or conducting arteries contain what? & what does this allow?
|large amounts of elastin, which allows these vessels to withstand and smooth out the pressure fluctuation due to the pumping action of the heart.
|Muscular or distributing arteries deliver blood to
|specific body organs
|What type of arteries have the most tunica media of all the vessels?
|Muscular or distributing arteries.
|These vessels are active in vasoconstriction
|Muscular or distributing arteries
|the smallest arteries
|Arterioles regulate blood flow into capillary beds
|vasoconstriction or vasodilation.
|the smallest blood vessels
|Capillaries allow for exchange of substances between
|the blood and interstitial fluid
|There are three structural types of capillaries
|continuous, fenestrated, and sinusoids
|Continuous capillaries
|allow passage of fluids and small solutes
|Most common type of capillaries
|Continuous capilaries
|Fenestrated capillaries
|are more permeable to fluid and solutes than continuous capillaries
|Fenestrated capillaries are found
|wherever active capillary absorption or filtrate formation occurs (e.g., small intestines, endocrine glands, and kidneys)
|Sinusoidal capillaries are
|leaky capillaries with large lumens;
|Sinusoidal capillaries allow
|large molecules (proteins and blood cells) to pass between the blood and surrounding tissues
|Where are Sinusoidal capillaries found?
|in the liver, bone marrow, lymphoid tissue, and in some endocrine organs
|How does Blood flow within Sinusoidal capillaries?
|sluggishly, allowing for modification in various ways
|Capillary Beds are
|Microcirculatory networks
|Capillary Beds consist of
|1.Vascular shunts 2.True capillaries
|True capillaries
|function as the exchange vessels
|Vascular shunts
|metarteriole-thoroughfare channel connecting an arteriole directly with a postcapillary venule
|precapillary sphincter
|A cuff of smooth muscle that surround each capillary at the matearteriole and acts as to regulate blood flow into the capillary
|Venules and Veins are found in what system?
|Venous System
|Where are Venules formed?
|where capillaries converge
|Venules allow
|fluid and white blood cells to move easily between the blood and tissues
|When venules converge what are formed?
|Veins are formed
|Veins are formed
|when venules converge
|are relatively thin walled with large lumens
|Veins contain about ____% of the blood supply
|Veins have much _________blood pressure and _______walls than arteries
|lower, thinner
|To return blood to the heart, veins have special adaptations What are they and describe each
|1.Large-diameter lumens, which offer little resistance to flow 2.Valves (resembling semilunar heart valves), which prevent backflow of blood
|Vascular Anastomoses
|Merging blood vessels, more common in veins than arteries
|Arterial anastomoses provide
|alternate pathways (collateral channels) for blood to reach a given body region
|If one branch is blocked (regarding Arterial anastomoses)
|the collateral channel can supply the area with adequate blood supply
|Blood Flow
|Actual volume of blood flowing through a vessel, an organ, or the entire circulation in a given period:
|Blood Flow is measured in
|ml per min.
|Blood Flow is relatively
|constant when at rest
|Blood Pressure (BP)
|Force per unit area exerted on the wall of a blood vessel by its contained blood
|Blood Pressure (BP) is Expressed in
|millimeters of mercury (mm Hg)
|What is the "opposition to flow"?
|Measure of the friction between blood and the vessel walls
|Resistance comes from 3 sources
|blood viscosity, total blood vessel length, blood vessel diameter
|If Blood Pressure increases, blood flow _________
|if BP decreases
|blood flow_______
|If resistance increases, blood flow¬¬¬¬¬________
|Peripheral resistance is
|the most important factor influencing local blood flow
|vasoconstriction (or vasodilation) can dramatically
|alter local blood flow, while the BP remains unchanged
|Systemic Blood Pressure
|The pumping action of the heart generates blood flow (through the vessels along a pressure gradient, always moving from higher- to lower-pressure areas)
|Systemic Blood Pressure results when
|flow is opposed by resistance
|Three things about Systemic pressure
|Is highest in the aorta, Declines throughout the length of the pathway, Is 0 mm Hg in the right atrium
|Arterial BP reflects two factors of the arteries close to the heart
|1.Their elasticity (compliance or distensibility) 2.The amount of blood forced into them at any given time
|Arterial Blood Pressure occurs in
|elastic arteries near the heart
|Arterial BP is
|pulsatile (BP rises and falls)
|systolic pressure
|When the left ventricle contracts, blood is forced into the aorta producing a peak in pressure (120 mm Hg)
|Diastolic pressure
|pressure that occurs when the blood can not flow back into the heart and the aorta recoils (the diameter is smaller) (70-80 mm Hg)
|Pulse pressure
|the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure
|Mean arterial pressure (MAP)
|pressure that propels the blood to the tissues
|Is Capillary BP low or high?
|Low capillary pressure is desirable because
|high BP would rupture the fragile, thin-walled capillaries
|low capillary BP is sufficient to
|exchange between the blood and tissues
|Venous BP
|steady and changes little during the cardiac cycle
|The pressure gradient in the venous system is
|only about 20 mm Hg
|A cut vein has ¬¬¬¬¬______blood flow; a lacerated artery flows
|even; in spurts
|Blood pressure varies directly with changes in (2 things)
|blood volume and cardiac output
|blood volume and cardiac output are determined mainly by (3 things)
|venous return, neural and hormonal controls
|What two ways are Short-Term Mechanisms controlled?
|Neural Controls and chemical controls
|Neural controls of peripheral resistance do two things
|1. Alter blood distribution to respond to specific demands 2. Maintain MAP by altering blood vessel diameter
|The vasomotor center
|a cluster of sympathetic nerons in the medulla that controls changes in the diameter of the blood vessels
|detect stretch impulses to the vasomotor center, inhibits its activity and promotes vasodilation of arterioles and veins (Baroreceptor Reflexes)
|detect a rise in CO2 content of the blood and stimulate the cardioacceleratory and vasomotor centers increased cardiac output and vasoconstriction
|The cortex and hypothalamus modify arterial pressure?
|via the medullary centers
|Blood pressure is regulated by
|chemoreceptor reflexes sensitive to oxygen and carbon dioxide
|Chemoreceptors sensitive to oxygen and carbon dioxide are found in the
|carotid and aortic bodies
|Reflexes that regulate blood pressure are integrated in the
|Higher brain centers (cortex and hypothalamus) can modify BP via
|relays to medullary centers
|Chemicals that Increase Blood Pressure
|Adrenal medulla hormones, Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), Angiotensin II, Endothelium-derived factors
|Adrenal medulla hormones
|norepinephrine and epinephrine increase blood pressure
|Antidiuretic hormone (ADH)
|causes intense vasoconstriction in cases of extremely low BP
|Angiotensin II
|kidney release of renin generates angiotensin II, which causes intense vasoconstriction
|Endothelium-derived factors
|promote vasoconstriction and are released in response to low blood flow
|Chemicals that Decrease Blood Pressure
|Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), Nitric oxide (NO), Inflammatory chemicals, Alcohol
|Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)
|causes blood volume and pressure to decline
|Nitric oxide (NO)
|has brief but potent vasodilator effects
|Inflammatory chemicals
|histamine, prostacyclin, and kinins are potent vasodilators
|causes BP to drop by inhibiting ADH
|2 Long-Term Mechanisms (Renal Regulation)
|Direct Mechanism and Indirect renal mechanism
|Long-term mechanisms
|control BP by altering blood volume
|Increased BP (Direct Mechanism)
|stimulates the kidneys to eliminate water, thus reducing blood volume dec in BP
|Decreased BP (Direct Mechanism)
|stimulates the kidneys to increase blood volume and BP
|Indirect renal mechanism
|involves the renin-angiotensin mechanism, a dec in BP systemic vasoconstriction
|Efficiency of the circulation can be assessed by
|taking pulse and blood pressure measurements
|Vital signs
|pulse and blood pressure, along with respiratory rate and body temperature
|pressure wave caused by the expansion and recoil of elastic arteries
|Where is Radial pulse taken?
|on the radial artery at the wrist
|How often is radial impulse used?
|Pulse varies with (3 things)
|health, body position, and activity
|Systemic arterial BP is measured by what method?
|the auscultatory method
|3 steps of the auscultatory method
|1.A sphygmomanometer is placed on the arm superior to the elbow, 2. Pressure is increased in the cuff until it is greater than systolic pressure in the brachial artery, 3. Pressure is released slowly and the examiner listens with a stethoscope
|Systolic pressure
|The first sound heard and is recorded
|Diastolic pressure
|The pressure when sound disappears is recorded
|The 2 Alterations in Blood Pressure
|Hypotension and Hypertension
|low BP in which systolic pressure is below 100 mm Hg
|condition of sustained elevated arterial pressure of 140/90 or higher
|2 types of elevation in In Hypertension are
|Transient elevations and Chronic (persistent) elevation
|In Hypertension, Transient elevations are
|In Hypertension, Transient elevations can be caused by what 3 things
|fever, physical exertion, and emotional upset
|Chronic (persistent) elevation is a major cause of (4 things)
|heart failure, vascular disease, renal failure, and stroke
|3 types of Hypotension
|Orthostatic, Chronic, and Acute
|Orthostatic hypotension
|temporary low BP and dizziness when suddenly rising from a sitting or reclining position
|Chronic hypotension
|hint of poor nutrition and warning sign for Addison's disease
|Acute hypotension
|important sign of circulatory shock
|What type of hypotension causes a threat to patients undergoing surgery and those in intensive care units?
|Acute hypotension
|2 types of Hypertension
|Primary (essential) and Secondary
|Hypertension may be ________ or _________
|transient, persistent
|Risk factors in primary hypertension include
|diet, obesity, age, race, heredity, stress, and smoking
|Secondary hypertension is due to identifiable disorders, including
|excessive renin secretion, arteriosclerosis, and endocrine disorders
|Blood flow (has another name)
|tissue perfusion
|Blood flow, or tissue perfusion, is involved in (4 things)
|Delivery of oxygen and nutrients to, and removal of wastes from, tissue cells, Gas exchange in the lungs, Absorption of nutrients from the digestive tract, Urine formation by the kidneys
|Blood flow is precisely the right amount to provide
|proper tissue function
|2 things about Blood velocity
|1.Changes as it travels through the systemic circulation, 2. Is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area
|Slow capillary flow (regarding blood velocity) allows adequate time for
|exchange between blood and tissues
|Local Regulation of Blood Flow
|automatic adjustment of blood flow to each tissue in proportion to its needs
|Autoregulation is controlled
|intrinsically by modifying the diameter of local arterioles
|Stimuli for autoregulation
|declining tissue oxygen level
|2 things Hemoglobin delivers to tissues
|nitric oxide (NO) and oxygen
|Nitric oxide induces vasodilation at the capillaries to help
|get oxygen to tissue cells
|Myogenic control involves
|the localized response of vascular smooth muscle to passive stretch.
|Inadequate blood perfusion or excessively high arterial pressure are __________ and provoke ________ _________
|autoregulatory, myogenic responses
|myogenic responses
|stimulation of vascular smooth muscle
|Vascular muscle responds directly to (two things)
|1. Increased vascular pressure with increased tone which causes vasoconstriction 2. Reduced stretch with vasodilation which promotes increased blood flow to the tissue
|Increased vascular pressure with increased tone causes
|Reduced stretch with vasodilation promotes
|increased blood flow to the tissue
|Long-Term Autoregulation is evoked (is initiated) when
|short-term autoregulation cannot meet tissue nutrient requirements
|Long-Term Autoregulation May develop (time period)
|over weeks or months
|Involves an increase in what 2 things?
|1. the size of existing blood vessels 2.the number of vessels in a specific area
|an increase in the size of existing blood vessels and an increase in the number of vessels in a specific area
|Angiogenesis takes place
|As the number of vessels to a region increases, When existing vessels enlarge, When a heart vessel becomes partly occluded, Routinely in people in high altitudes, where oxygen content of the air is low
|Blood flow to skeletal muscles varies in what 2 ways?
|the level of activity and fiber type
|What happens when muscles become active?
|muscular autoregulation occurs almost entirely in response to decreased oxygen concentrations
|What happens during physical activity as vasodilation occurs
|Muscle blood flow can increase tenfold or more
|Blood flow to the brain is tightly regulated to meet_______ requirements, as neurons are _______
|neuronal; intolerant of ischemia (decreased blood flow)
|Why is Blood flow to the brain is tightly regulated
|It must meet neuronal requirements
|Why must blood flow meet neuronal requirements?
|because neurons are intolerant of ischemia
|decreased blood flow
|Metabolic controls, brain tissue is extremely sensitive to what 2 metabolic controls?
|declines in pH, and increased carbon dioxide (causes marked vasodilation)
|If brain tissue has an increase in carbon dioxide, what does it cause?
|causes marked vasodilation)
|3 functions of Blood flow through the skin
|1. Supplies nutrients to cells in response to oxygen need, 2. Helps maintain body temperature, 3. Provides a blood reservoir
|In the skin, autoregulatory events control
|oxygen and nutrient delivery to the cells
|In skin neural mechanisms control
|the body temperature regulation function
|Examples of what causes temperature to rises
|heat exposure, fever, vigorous exercise
|As tempuratures rises

Maths Assignment Help
Mathematics is the science that handles the reasoning of plan, amount and shape. Mathematics is all around us, in whatever we do. It is the foundation for whatever in our every day lives, consisting of mobile phones, architecture (modern-day and ancient), art, loan, engineering, as well as sports. The requirements of mathematics emerged based on the desires of society. Primitive people required bit more than the capability to count, however likewise relied on mathematics to compute the position of the sun and the physics of searching. A number of civilizations– in China, India, Egypt, Central America and Mesopotamia– contributed to mathematics as we understand it today. The Sumerians' system passed through the Akkadian Empire to the Babylonians around 300 B.C. 6 hundred years later on, in America, the Mayans established sophisticated calendar systems and were proficient astronomers.
For more than 2 thousand years, mathematics has actually been a part of the human search for understanding. These stay essential and worthwhile inspirations for mathematical thinking, however in the last century mathematics has actually been effectively used to numerous other elements of the human world: voting patterns in politics, the dating of ancient artifacts, the analysis of vehicle traffic patterns, and long-lasting techniques for the sustainable harvest of deciduous forests, to point out a couple of. A lot of mathematics relates to other topics like music, art, and science. Most significantly, mathematics relates to things we do in the genuine world every day. Links make mathematics simpler for kids to comprehend since they enable kids to use typical guidelines to lots of various things.
Ask kids to think of and fix issues that emerge in your daily activities. Ask kids to help you put the groceries away. They will practice sorting– the cereal boxes and the soup cans– and explore relative shapes and size and how the huge boxes use up more space than the smaller sized ones. Try to find mathematics in your daily life and do not stress about exactly what the element of mathematics may be. Something as easy as putting water into various sized cups and thinking of which cup will hold more is a subtle activity that really includes evaluation, measurement, and spatial sense.
Nearly every trainee requires mathematics Assignment help, since resolving mathematics issues needs broad analytical understanding. We are a popular mathematics Assignment website all set to use day-and-night mathematics help and mathematics projects done for you. You'll be pleased to observe that our mathematics Assignment solvers are constantly prepared to propose online mathematics help you. Every trainee going to mathematics classes is required to finish loads of mathematics Assignment in their instructional life. Mathematics tasks are hard and need a lot of time, which is why lots of trainees look for mathematics Assignment support for conclusion of hard mathematics projects.
I'm a mathematics teacher– I teach grade 4 mathematics, I have actually produced a mathematics Web website, and I compose about subjects in mathematics education. One might argue maths is much better since mathematics ends in s, and one might argue mathematics is much better due to the fact that mathematics is simply a mass noun that occurs to end in s. If you were raised in a part of the world where individuals state maths, then maths is appropriate for you, and the exact same is of course real of mathematics. We are a popular mathematics Assignment website prepared to use day-and-night mathematics help and mathematics projects done for you. Mathematics tasks are challenging and need a lot of time, which is why numerous trainees look for mathematics Assignment help for conclusion of tough mathematics tasks.
Mathematics and maths are similarly appropriate abbreviations of mathematics. The only distinction is that mathematics is chosen in the United States and Canada, and maths is chosen in the U.K., Australia, and a lot of other English-speaking locations of the world. You might hear arguments for one being exceptional to the other, and there are rational cases for both sides. One might argue maths is much better due to the fact that mathematics ends in s, and one might argue mathematics is much better due to the fact that mathematics is simply a mass noun that takes place to end in s. If you were raised in a part of the world where individuals state maths, then maths is appropriate for you, and the exact same is of course real of mathematics.
You might question exactly what links the maths you carry out in school to the real life. Will you ever need to resolve a formula or discover an angle outside your class?

Exactly what you discover in maths lessons will be crucial for your future.
Forming up with daily maths
Shapes and area, is the earliest branch of maths. Much more just recently, trigonometry assisted to put guys on the moon. The most apparent distinction is that math is all about mathematics and numbers is all about theory. In college, I have a vibrant memory of Linus Pauling ¹ providing a visitor lecture and after scrawling theoretical mathematics all over 3 chalkboards, a trainee raised his hand and pointed out that 7 times 8 had actually been increased incorrect in one of the earlier actions. Discover the theory in mathematics and the computer systems and calculators will keep you precise. Exactly what is mathematics? It may appear apparent: We hope we understand exactly what we're teaching– which our trainees understand exactly what they're finding out! Actions to that concern can be remarkably varied.
Prior to you keep reading, please take a couple of minutes to show and tape-record your very own ideas on "Exactly what is mathematics?"
I'm a mathematics teacher– I teach grade 4 mathematics, I have actually developed a mathematics Web website, and I compose about subjects in mathematics education. I can not quickly reveal exactly what mathematics is. I'm in excellent business.

Little provides perspective better than spending time with kids. As a principal, I know that my interactions with students tell me more about the health of my school than just about anything else; as a dad, a spring break road trip that had our family of four sharing hotel rooms and a crowded car was a great grounding experience; and some very precious time with my niece and her family, including a wide eyed three month old, his bouncing seven year old brother, and his clever three year old sister reminded me how important a calling it is to be an educator.
For each of the kids in my life, those in my immediate family and those in my school family as well, teachers and the other adults who help to form their education have the power to make such a difference on their changing lives. As adults we know that. As kids they feel it.
As I listened to my own kids talk in the back seat of the car, I heard the truth about the way students in our school system see things.
"I'd never want to be a teacher. Kids treat them terribly." Pause. "Not me, but kids. Particularly boys." Thoughtful pause. "Mrs. —- doesn't like kids, so I guess it's a little okay they treat her badly back." Pause. "Not me. Mr. —– respects us. They don't act up for him."
I heard about school rules and routines, sometimes unable to keep myself out of the conversation. "Before school we have to stay in the cafeteria, and if we're too loud a lady blows a whistle at us. Sometimes she gets really frustrated, like when one group of kids starts to yell and chant."
"Chant?" I asked. "Do they chant: 'Whistle! More! Please!'?"
"No, Dad."
More even than rules and misbehavior, from my niece I heard about the power of a teacher and administrator to make things better. At an IEP meeting, when the teacher and principal spoke about strategies and supports, their reassurance and commitment was both real and appreciated. Parents want to know that the school cares for their students, and it's a trust that is earned over time. When I heard "…and maybe with this new principal it will be better," my first thought was that I want to be that honest school leader my students, parents, and teachers can believe in.
Belief and hope are the building blocks of learning, a truth a marvelous three year old reminded me of as she presented a drawing of spring flowers and was able to tell me the name of the color of each one.
"Blue," she said, pointing. "Orange," she added with pride. "Red," she said with the confidence of a preschooler whose mom has been working with her around the kitchen table. Her eyes sparkled and I saw in them the potential so many parents (and grandparents, and uncles, and aunts, and caregivers) see in their own kids. I want the pride she feels now to always be a part of her education.
I don't want anyone blowing a whistle at her.
But the truth is that I don't have control over their education. I can love them and advocate for them. I can try to encourage in them resiliency and courage, and the confidence to make themselves heard, but I need others to take the time to listen.
At my own school I can do my best as a principal to nurture a culture that is caring and accepting, a safe place for everyone. (This is harder work than it sounds like in a sentence as short as that last one, but work worth doing.)
I might even hope that someone in education reading the little scribbles I post every week might take from my words the notion that being kind and caring, and even a little silly, can be a good thing.
Yet beyond anything I say or do, it seems to me that the understanding of how things are and how things should be will come to me, and to all of us who make schools our line of work, if we simply put down our whistles and listen.

Hi Marek,
We have some issues with the simpleblog module included with the Alysum theme:
1 - Module does not detect registered users. We set the simpleblog module to NOT allow comments for NON LOGGED USERS. but if you log in into the website, still does not permit to insert any comment (check screenshots simpleblog1.png and simpleblog2.png)
2 - Module does not redirect correctly once a comment has been inserted. We changed the module setting to ALLOW NON LOGGED USERS comment. Once we did that we were able to insert a comment. Once the comment is inserted, the website redirects us to a non existent (404) page. (Check screenshots simpleblog-allowanonymous.png, simpleblog-allowanonymous2.png and simpleblog-allowanonymous3.png)
3 - Recaptcha module always throws an error of non valid keys. We checked in google and keys/secret are correct....
Thanks in advance,
Hi, Asier.

Square Enix and Crystal Dynamics announced today in a press release that 2013's Tomb Raider reboot has officially become the highest selling game of the action-platforming franchise. Its 8.5 million units sold puts it above the other dozen-plus Tomb Raider games in the franchise, which is one of the best-selling video game franchises of all time.
Despite breaking sales records in its first month with 3.4 million units sold, Square Enix initially called the game's sales numbers disappointing as it failed to reach their lofty 6 million goal. Due to this "disappointment," Square Enix went on to say that they needed to move away from traditional cash outlets and find more ways to make money during development. Speaking to Games Industry International, Square Enix director Yosuka Matsuda had this to say in 2013:
There is a huge difference from the perspective of business risk between a model where no revenue opportunities take place for several years until the product is completed (upon which investments are recovered at one time), and a model where revenue opportunities exist in some form prior to product completion, even if the amount of money invested is the same.
This could be one of the reasons the next major Tomb Raider entry, Rise of the Tomb Raider will be an Xbox One exclusive – and published by Microsoft.
While the 2013 Tomb Raider was originally released on PC and Xbox 360 and PS3 consoles, it did find its way to current generation consoles in the form of Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition in early 2014.
The Tomb Raider franchise as a whole has sold more than 40 million copies worldwide. On top of countless toys and other offshoots, it also spawned the massive financially successful Tomb Raider film in 2001 that grossed more over $300 at the global box office.Buy Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition on Amazon Buy Tomb Raider (2013) on Amazon

Battery Charge for Android phones is always an issue and all thanks to developers who are here with a workaround for all the Samsung Galaxy Nexus users after applying which you will be able to increase the battery life of the device marginally and also not just that, the device will charge faster than ever. Please note that this trick is not officially recommended by Samsung or Google but it's just third party developers who have come up with this work around. There is no harm what so ever for performing this step. But wait for this to be possible, Developers first need to add the kernel which we will be providing in the due course of this article. All the batteries generally charges from 0 – 70% but unfortunately due to many reasons on related to the software or firmware files the battery charging time becomes very high.
Basically the kernel which we will be checking out allows you to toggle the fast charge. This also works for MHL, HOWEVER you will most likely still be limited by the MHL adapter itself. With modification to the MHL adapter (splice in an additional charger) plus this mod, bunklung was able to charge at ~600-700 mA while mirroring and streaming. Please note that there will be a force close error once when the charge is toggled. Please note that as of now there is no flashable zip file for the normal users or any direct patch installation file. Though there are many techniques for increasing the efficiency like custom ROM firmwares etc. which we will see more in the coming days to come.
Fast Charge Patch for Galaxy Nexus
If you do end up running a kernel with this patch applied, there is an application you still have to use to enable the Force AC charging called Incredicontrol. For more details on the development you can visit the Source link mentioned at the end of this article. So, if you are a developer, we hope that you will make use of this kernel for normal consumers and just in case if you are a consumer then we will surely keep an eye on this story and as in when it arrives we will surely come up with a detailed article. We just hope that this technique will also be extended to other Android smartphones as well. Do share with us in the comments section just in case if you face any issues as we will be more than happy to help you out. You can also alternatively refer to the battery saving tips which we have covered on AndroidAdvices so that you can make the most out of your batteries.

Alley Valkyrie and Kim Haffner had a fit of raging jealousy because I pay more attention to Belle, then them. The glass slipper, fits!
Sensing I was honoring her, the Beautiful Beggar Waif, plotted on how to extract some nickels from my writing so she can feed them into the Nickelodeon and view the wonderful French Dancing Girl who she emulated. Dancing her way up the path to the castle where live her prince, Belle projected herself in her place. She betrayed the old writer. She put a witch on him. She wanted him destroyed. This is how the best Fairytales go.
The old writer survived the curse and wrote a play about Beautiful Belle. Passing by the theatre, she read her name, and saw her likeness on the poster. If only she could afford to buy a red dress. Finding a open door in the alley, she snuck in and watched the drama from high in the rafters.
This secret door was the best thing that ever happened to her. She never missed a show. Then, one evening, she put her hand on the knob, turned it, but to her utter dismay, the door was latched.
Closing her eyes, she could barely hear the closing tune. She had a vision of La Belle dancing her way out of the labyrinth into the arms of her prince.
Belle du Labyrinthe
……….ran for a hundred years.
Seer Jon
I Will Draw and Paint Belle
Belle and I met at the Wandering Goat, I am going to go forward with my desire to render Belle in several works, one being a grouping of my muses like the one John did above. Being kin to Talitha Getty, via Elizabeth Rosemond Taylor, brings together a grouping of artists and muses that are kin to my later sister, Christine Rosamond Benton. Christine was her own model. With Belle, the Sleeping Beauty Court is awake! Above is Christine at the Getty mansion where she spent several nights.
Belle Burch made a verbal contract with me, being, in exchange for the Schwinn bicycle I gave her, she in turn would give me ten hours of modeling.
As I informed Belle, our meeting was a historic event, being, she is now associated with a family of artists and muses of great importance.
Christine is wearing one of Marilyn's dresses she bought, the same one my wife wore at our wedding.

Another to come under Pol's spell was the dancer Rudolf Nureyev, who first met her at a party in 1965. According to Nureyev's biographer, Julie Kavanagh, the two were in thrall to each other, to the extent that Nureyev "had never felt so erotically stirred by a woman" and told several friends that he wished to marry Pol.[4]
Talitha Dina Pol was born in Java, then part of the Dutch East Indies (now Indonesia). Her father was Willem Jilts Pol (1905–88), a painter who subsequently married Poppet John (1912–97), daughter of the painter Augustus John (1878–1961), a pivotal figure in the world of "Bohemian" culture and fashion. She was thus the step -granddaughter of both Augustus John and his muse and second wife, Dorothy "Dorelia" McNeil (1881–1969), who was a fashion icon in the early years of the 20th century. By Ian Fleming's widowed mother, Evelyn Ste Croix Fleming née Rose, Augustus John had a daughter and Talitha's aunt, Amaryllis Fleming (1925–1999), who became a noted cellist.
in Augustus John's art she at times served more exotic purposes, wearing scarves and long dresses,[10] but was also the subject of domestic scenes, including those which show her with Augustus' first wife and their children.[9][11] It is said that she "made a significant contribution to the 'bohemian utopianism' of the artist's most intensely creative period, c. 1903-1914."[9] Eventually she had two sons and two daughters with Augustus. She lived with him until his death in 1961.[3] Her step-granddaughter was the 1960s bohemian fashion icon Talitha Getty.

It looks like singer-actress Jessica Simpson's debut on QVC last night was such a disaster that she won't be back on the air until 7 p.m. Monday night, with one of her assistants filling in for her during shows scheduled for today.
Simpson appeared at midnight Monday to kick off QVC's Today's Special Value, a handbag from the singer's new accessories line for the home shopping channel.
But the blonde was inarticulate and awkward when she tried to describe her wares, so much so that QVC brought out Simpson's mother Tina to help out on-air. Simpson's poor performance was noted by poster's on QVC's online forums, as well as the media.
Simpson, often skewered in the tabloids for her weight and rocky love life, didn't seem to know much about her merchandise. We hate to say it, but she did seem to be the brightest bulb in the world.
Simpson was slated to appear on another show at 11 a.m., but host Mary Beth Roe announced that the singer would not be able to be back until 7 p.m. Sally Nobody from Simpson's line, we did not catch here real name, filled in for the singer.
Not a good sign.

While watching a car race, Nick O'Bannon (Bobby Campo) has a premonition of a deadly disaster and convinces his buddies to leave immediately; however, death can't be cheated. One was hoping (in vain) that the title of this film would be true – the fourth chapter aimed to be the definitive version (in 3D no less) of the now tiresome story about Death collecting the souls of those who got away. There is no imagination here whatsoever, just the exact same thing all over again, with ludicrous death scenes.
2009-U.S. 82 min. Color. Widescreen. Directed by David R. Ellis. Cast: Bobby Campo (Nick O'Bannon), Shantel VanSanten (Lori Milligan), Krista Allen (Samantha Lane), Nick Zano, Mykelti Williamson, Haley Webb.
Trivia: Followed by Final Destination 5 (2011).

Your home's foundation needs all the protection it can get. A strong foundation will carry the weight of your house and keep it steady. Sealing is an important aspect that can make or break the longevity of your foundation. Here's what you need to know about foundation sealing.
What is Foundation Sealing?
Foundation sealing is what will keep moisture out and away from doing damage to the foundation itself and the inside of your home. If the foundation is not properly sealed, moisture damage is likely to occur. This moisture damage can result in cracks in the foundation, mold inside your home, water damage to walls and ceilings, and house shifting. Mold can lead to health problems, some of which include asthma, allergies, and respiratory issues.
Because water can make its way to the foundation in many ways (from the gutters, pooling around the house, rain seeping in through already existing cracks), you'll want to make sure its sealed properly. With a seamless foundation seal, you can be confident that water won't make its way into the foundation and into your home. Protecting your home, belongings, and health is a great benefit of foundation sealing.
How is the Foundation Sealed?
Foundation sealing consists of multiple parts and can vary depending on where you live. If you live where it rains a lot, your foundation sealing needs will be different than an area that experiences very little rain. Temperature changes and soil composition also play a part in what type of foundation sealing will be best. A mastic coating and drain board applied to the exterior of the foundation will seal water out of the basement.
Drain tile can be installed at the footing of the foundation to drain water away from the house. Sealing of the foundation is done on the outside of the foundation. Damp-proofing is a simple treatment that consists of an asphaltic material sprayed on or rolled on if done on a smaller area. This is typically done on concrete foundations.
Can You Seal a Damaged Foundation?
If you suspect your foundation is damaged and needs repair and re-sealing, your best option is to contact a professional to access the situation. They will know the best course of action for your damaged foundation. A structural engineer will be able to tell you what your foundation requires.
Because they will not be the ones to repair the problem, they will be completely honest with you about what you're dealing with. With this information, you can go to a foundation specialist and discuss the best way to handle the foundation damage and how to get it properly repaired and sealed.
A sealed foundation is an important part of keeping the foundation strong and able to withstand the test of time. A foundation that keeps the moisture out will remain strong enough to support the weight of your home and keep it from shifting. To avoid your foundation becoming vulnerable, it's important to make sure it's sealed properly.

22 Common Habits You Don't Realize Are Slowly Killing You
You know what they say, old habits die hard. It's no surprise that it's difficult to lose a bad habit, but that shouldn't be the only reason why you can't shake it. What you need to know, however, is the truth. And the truth is, your common habits might be doing more harm than you think. There are many common habits you don't realize are slowly killing you that you do on a daily basis. Wow, talk about a nightmare — am I right?
I applaud you if you've already gotten rid of old bad habits. However, there may be even more still lurking and secretly wreaking havoc on your body. Those seemingly harmless habits are the ones that can really cause major damage to you and your overall health. In the worst-case scenarios, they can even cost you your life.
So, it's definitely time for you to think back on your day. What tiny habits do you often catch yourself doing? And, more importantly, can these quirks and ticks be detrimental to your life? Luckily, there's a lot of research that can show you what habits you should start easing up on over time, and what habits you should quit cold turkey.
1. You Snack When You're Not Hungry
We've all been there before, grabbing a bite to eat with friends even when you're not hungry. However, according to Reader's Digest, ignoring your body's natural hunger signals can lead to chronic overeating. It may be time to reschedule those dinner plans.
2. You Text While You Walk
Do you find yourself grabbing for your phone when you're out by yourself? You're not alone. In an interview with ABC News, Dr. Beth Ebel, director of the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center at the University of Washington, said crossing streets while texting raises your risk of being hit by a car. You should rethink going to reach for your phone when you should be paying attention.
3. You Frequently Crack Your Neck
In an interview with Health, Dr. Michael Gleiber, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon, said repeatedly cracking your neck makes you more susceptible to injury, perhaps a stroke. You should give up this habit now before it's too late.
4. You Spend A Lot Of Time Alone
According to a study in the journal Perspectives on Psychological Science, social isolation is associated with increased risk for early mortality. Call up your friends for a night out ASAP.
5. You Mix Products When Cleaning
You've been there, scouring the pantry closet looking for cleaning products. Bleach can always get the job done, right? Wrong. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, mixing bleach with ammonia or other cleaners can create toxic fumes. It's time to hit the stores for the right supplies.
6. You Eat At Your Desk
According to a study by the Annals of Internal Medicine, staying at your desk to eat lunch could slowly kill you. Eating lunch at your desk could cause major problems like heart disease.
7. You Skip Your Exercise Routine
Yes, you deserve a break from your workout routine every now and then. However, a fluctuating exercise regime can be harmful. According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, a lack of exercise could be more deadly than being obese. Your life can change for the better even if you take the stairs rather than the elevator, or go for a walk after dinner.
8. You're Staying In An Unhappy Marriage
According to The Week, a study done by sociologists at Michigan State University revealed that you are more likely to suffer from heart disease or a heart attack if you're in an argumentative marriage. It may be time to seek counseling or call off your marriage for good. Your overall health will thank you.
9. You Spend Money You Don't Have
According to Daily Mail, stressing about things like credit card bills can speed up your aging process and make you neglectful to other aspects of your life, which can harm your health. So say goodbye to your credit card and hello to a longer life.
10. You Skip Breakfast All The Time
According to Reader's Digest, skipping breakfast can harm your weight, energy, and blood sugar. Help yourself out by prepping food the night before, or waking up 15 minutes early to make breakfast.
11. You Ignore Your Snore
According to Health, snoring can be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea. Health further noted that sleep apnea also increases the risk of heart disease. It may be wise to put an end to ignoring the snoring.
12. You Overwork Yourself
According to Step to Health, stress from work can cause a weak immune system and a risk for infection. Putting in the extra time at work may pay off in your wallet, but it certainly doesn't help your health.
13. You Bite Your Nails
According to Mercola, biting your nails could cause major diseases. Mercola further noted that your nails are where bacteria like Salmonella and E. coli can be found. Think twice before putting your fingers near your mouth again.
14. You Load Up On The Caffeine
According to Healthline, caffeine overdoses can be deadly at times and can worsen anxiety. Looks like decaffeinated tea, not coffee, might be your saving grace after all.
15. You Skip Out On The Vitamin D
According to The Week, U.K. researchers found that low vitamin D levels are more likely to cause dementia than higher levels. Load up on vitamin D the next time you eat, or purchase some vitamin supplements ASAP.
16. Your Posture Goes Unchecked
In an interview with Livestrong, Dr. Rene Cailliet, former director of University of Southern California's Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, said, hunching forward too much can affect your lung capacity by up to 30 percent. You'll breath much easier in no time when you start standing up straight.
17. You Eat Too Much Red Meat
According to WebMD, eating too much red meat can increase your risk of heart disease and risk of other cancers. As delicious as a huge burger is, it can unfortunately destroy your health.
18. You Have A Severe Lack Of Sleep
According to Cleveland Clinic, a lack of sleep can increase your risk of developing diabetes. In an interview with Cleveland Clinic, endocrinologist Dr. Mary Vouyiouklis Kellis said that a lack of sleep causes you to exercise less.
19. You Spend Too Much Time In The Sun
According to WebMD, heat stroke is the most serious form of heat injury. WebMD further noted that heat stroke can kill or cause damage to the brain and other internal organs. It may be time to go inside and get some shade.
20. You Skip Out On Doctor Appointments
I don't blame you for not liking to go to the doctor's, but it's vital for your health. According to Health, not knowing your cholesterol and blood pressure numbers can harm your health. Health further noted that if these or your blood sugar levels are high, you're at risk for heart disease, stroke, and diabetes.
21. You Take Birth Control
Well, great. According to the American Cancer Society, studies have found that women who use birth control have a higher risk of breast cancer than women who don't. Consult with your doctor if you're concerned about the oral contraceptive that you use.
22. You Don't Floss Often
According to WebMD, not flossing can cause gum disease, which could lead to a heart attack. Failure to floss may seem like a harmless habit, but it can seriously put you and your heart at risk.
