Dreadful "elderly sannyasi" tattva confirmedHanuman das
I had a doubt all along. I had a doubt that as you progress in Krishna consciousness, as you become very renounced and very advanced. You become eligible to have a girlfriend, female assistant or whatever else you want to call her. That is a young unmarried woman, who travels around with "elderly sannyasi". She is doing "devotional service" by "assisting" a man who is so divinely powerful, that he is not affected by her presence.

If you want to experience a getaway like no other, you'll have to check out the Laamu Six Senses. This unique resort is the only resort in the almost uncharted Laamu atoll, which lies in the Indian Ocean.
The villas inside the Laamu Six Senses resort combine comfort while staying eco-friendly. The water surrounding the resort is crystal clear and the sand is one-of-a-kind. Guests are able to stay in miniature huts that reside across a dock along the shoreline. Each hut is arranged to include all modern comforts while retaining the look of a classic coastal home. The huts even feature Bose sound systems so you can party all night on the ocean shore. Laamu Six Senses is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime getaway.
The Laamu Six Senses Offers a Tranquil Stay on a Tiny Island

We live at a time when institutions and the people who represent them (i.e. the system) have lost credibility: this is true whether we are speaking of academia, business, the press or the Church. This explains, in great part, the populist explosion throughout the Western world. Populism on the left blames the "economic elites" while, on the right, populism rails against the cultural and intellectual elites.
A backlash against globalization and multiculturalism allowed Donald Trump, a real estate mogul and a reality TV star, to lead a populist insurgency against a political establishment that was perceived to be "out of touch" and too beholding to those elites.
In the Wall Street Journal, Peggy Noonan, in commenting on the shock waves — welcomed by some and distressing to others — that the Trump presidency has already brought to Washington observed: "Everyone's political views are now emotions and everyone now wears their emotions on their faces." (Wall Street Journal, 2/3/17).
This was certainly evident in the widespread protests that followed President Trump's executive orders on refugee issues and the related travel ban. The original order halts the entire refugee admissions program for 120 days, cuts the number of refugees admitted from 110,000 to 50,000, and suspends resettlement of refugees from Syria, Iraq, Iran and several failed states in the region.
The executive orders provoked strong reactions — and fears. In Miami-Dade County on Feb. 1, in the wake of the president's executive orders and the county mayor's attempt to escape the label of having endorsed a "sanctuary city," a near panic resulted as (unfounded) rumors of immigration round-ups on street corners spread like wildfire among the county's undocumented residents. Public schools reported increased absenteeism as parents are afraid of sending the kids to class.
The executive orders were challenged in the courts, protested on the streets and criticized strongly by faith leaders, including spokesmen for the U.S. Catholic bishops, Catholic Charities and other agencies. And, as Peggy Noonan observed, "There was no Republican in Washington — not one — on the Hill or within the party structure who did not privately call the order a disaster."
But ultimately, the blame lies in Congress' failure to legislatively fix an antiquated and inadequate — and thus broken — immigration system. Comprehensive immigration reform has been the unfinished business of Congress for more than 15 years.
The system is broken. It does not adequately address the need for reliable labor flows — which is why we have 11 million undocumented in the country (who are not sleeping under bridges but working, even if in the informal economy). At the same time, due process for asylum seekers is severely compromised by overloaded dockets and under-resourced advocates.
While some rail against rewarding "law breakers," the majority of those in the U.S. without proper documents harm no one but work hard to provide better opportunities for their families. A pathway to legal residency and possible U.S. citizenship for these people would allow ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) to devote resources to apprehending the "really bad apples" — violent criminals and terrorists — instead of chasing nannies and food service workers.
The administration claims it wants to implement "extreme vetting" to protect the American people. Let's encourage it to put in place whatever "extreme vetting" it deems necessary. But vetting should give no quarter to xenophobic intolerance or nativism. Nor should the vetting process drag on: too many lives are at risk.
Our refugee resettlement program, long an example of cooperation between the government and faith-based organizations, is a life-saving program for some of the world's most vulnerable people.
At the same time, Congress is accountable for our broken immigration system and only Congress can fix it. One place to start would be to revive the Dream Act, which would give a path to citizenship for those brought here as children. These "dreamers" are now protected by DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) — a temporary holding action by President Obama when Congress failed to pass the Dream Act.
President Trump has said that the "dreamers" do not have much to fear: but rather than rely on that, Congress should extend DACA with the BRIDGE Act immediately, while working across the aisle for a permanent and comprehensive solution to our broken immigration system.

One Response
Let's accept the Archbishop's premise that Congress is remiss in addressing immigration. Ah, the details. For instance just today on the KYW radio was a discussion of HB-1 work visas. Now these visas are awarded to foreigners (can we use this word anymore) who possess unique highly specialized skills that cannot be found among our domestic work force. Sounds good right? Well one of the "unique skills" or professions is motel manager. Now does anyone seriously believe there are no Americans capable of being a motel manager?

I've been to a lot of places across the country but I've never been to Sky Rock in California. In fact I've never even heard of it until I came across this photo, so thank you Rich as I have yet another destination to add to the Bucket List. What I enjoy most about this image is that it's not hard to imagine being the very humans that actually laid down these shapes and designs as they looked up at the same sky seen in the photo. Seeing the night sky is one thing but when you find yourself looking up in a dark sky site and the stars are so numerous that the long familiar constellations are even difficult to make out, it really opens your eyes as to how important it is to protect the night sky. Next is Rick's account of the taking of this photo, enjoy.
"I can finally cross off the mysterious Sky Rock in the Eastern Sierra mountains of California from my photography bucket list. This spot is highly sought after and not easily found since it is one of the rare occurrences where ancient writings face the sky. These ~6000 year old rock writings give us a glimpse into the past lives of the natives but they seem to bring more questions than answers. Why does it face the sky? And why are there no human/animal figures as commonly found on similar sites in the SW? Makes me wonder who these were written for and why. But I'm no Indiana Jones so I'll just photograph it and let you come to your own conclusions. Enjoy! Tech Details: 6 shot panoramic (3 for sky/foreground) and stitched to create a square crop. Foreground lit with diffused LED's." – Rick Parchen.

authors can use their own words as a means of resistance against publishers who technically own the author's words in today's 'property rights'–oriented
However, in the present era of publishing, those rights are consistently being called into question. Gennaro (2012) is particularly frank about how copyright law has come to privilege publishers at the expense of those who created the work in the first place: 'Once you have transferred copyright to a journal [in order to publish] you cannot ethically use the words that you have written in another journal article; you no longer own those words' (p. 109). Nevertheless, Bently (1994) remarks on Roland Barthes' contention that once text has been published, the words no longer belong to that author or anyone else for that matter.
What about publishing to your own site...or from your own site?
Despite, or perhaps as a result of, this wide variation of what is seen to constitute self-plagiarism, there is much debate about the concept. The very definition of plagiarism as theft causes many to argue that one cannot steal from one's self, and therefore, self-plagiarism is an oxymoron (Cronin, 2013) which purposefully 'invoke[s] the pejorative tone of the root-word' (Clarke, 2009: Section 2, paragraph 4). Some contend that self-plagiarism is academic fraud or misconduct (e.g. Bretag and Carapiet, 2007; Martin, 2013), while others have argued that scholars can, do, and even should reuse their written words and ideas, within reason and without citation
As a form of perceived transgression, self-plagiarism has instigated a change in guidelines of leading professional associations regarding ethical publishing behavior in organization and management studies. Honig et al. (2014) note that the Academy of Management's code of ethical conduct has changed from 'an implicit recognition that a certain amount of self-plagiarism is acceptable, as long as "different audiences and outlets" are employed' (p. 128) to a more stringent and explicit exhortation to cite any and all words and ideas published, unpublished, or electronic, even if they are one's own (Martin, 2013).

That process is one of the more rewarding aspects of our profession. It's an opportunity to take good ideas and make them better by a series of feedback-and-revision loops. That process, I'm certain, reminds us of some pretty basic truths about learning and the intellectual life: That good ideas must be articulated and tested in public forums, for example, or that every presentation must be tailored to fit its specific audience, or that even our best ideas should be considered provisional ones, always pending new information.

Since knowledge of other minds is typically considered to be open to sceptical doubt, and self-consciousness is not, such lines of reasoning are transcendental arguments and so potentially open to general criticisms of that form of argument
This is where the asymmetry of self and others comes in
is to argue that knowledge of other minds is a necessary condition of the possibility of self-consciousness
This is what I want to argue in my thesis
Only 1% of Americans rewrite their goals on a daily basis.Giving yourself even five minutes per day to orient your life in the direction of your goals is the difference between success and average.
It's easy to focus on the constraints of your circumstances rather than the power of your capabilities.
Other consequences of present bias include procrastination or eating unhealthily, even though we promised ourselves we wouldn't.

"Hitting the wall" is a term that is being increasingly used to describe women who have reached an age where men no longer find them sexually attractive.
"The wall" is a persistent meme in right wing male circles, but it seems to me like a paltry consolation for undesirable guys (MGTOW) to delude themselves. If the wall is real, who is maintaining it and for what purpose? Even grannies can find men to keep them company. They just don't want the kind of man who would want their wrinkly asses.

Another, related tradition has argued that an awareness of subjects other than oneself is a necessary condition of self-consciousness (see §4.4). Historical variations on such a view can be found in Fichte (1794–1795; Wood 2006), Hegel (1807; Pippin 2010), and, from a somewhat different perspective, Mead (1934; Aboulafia 1986).

Flora Hogman conducted a case study of Second and Third-Generation, and in her sample of the grandchildren of Holocaust survivors she noticed that they feel a sense of pride and awe of the survivors. This awareness of the suffering is part of the fabric of their lives, but is channeled into empathy, political activism, greater consciousness of others suffering, and a reluctance to intermarry.

Trauma victims cannot recover until they become familiar with and befriend the sensations in their bodies. Being frightened means that you live in a body that is always on guard. Angry people live in angry bodies. The bodies of child-abuse victims are tense and defensive until they find a way to relax and feel safe. In order to change, people need to become aware of their sensations and the way that their bodies interact with the world around them. Physical self-awareness is the first step in releasing the tyranny of the past.
www.brainpickings.org www.brainpickings.org
The challenge of recovery is to reestablish ownership of your body and your mind — of your self. This means feeling free to know what you know and to feel what you feel without becoming overwhelmed, enraged, ashamed, or collapsed. For most people this involves (1) finding a way to become calm and focused, (2) learning to maintain that calm in response to images, thoughts, sounds, or physical sensations that remind you of the past, (3) finding a way to be fully alive in the present and engaged with the people around you, (4) not having to keep secrets from yourself, including secrets about the ways that you have managed to survive

If in observing the present state of the world and life in general, from a Christian point of view one had to say (and from a Christian point of view with complete justification): It is a disease. And if I were a physician and someone asked me "What do you think should be done?" I would answer, "The first thing, the unconditional condition for anything to be done, consequently the very first thing that must be done is: create silence, bring about silence; God's Word cannot be heard, and if in order to be heard in the hullabaloo it must be shouted deafeningly with noisy instruments, then it is not God's Word; create silence! Ah, everything is noisy; and just as strong drink is said to stir the blood, so everything in our day, even the most insignificant project, even the most empty communication, is designed merely to jolt the senses and to stir up the masses, the crowd, the public, noise! And man, this clever fellow, seems to have become sleepless in order to invent ever new instruments to increase noise, to spread noise and insignificance with the greatest possible haste and on the greatest possible scale. Yes, everything is soon turned upside-down: communication is indeed soon brought to its lowest point in regard to meaning, and simultaneously the means of communication are indeed brought to their highest with regard to speedy and overall circulation; for what is publicized with such hot haste and, on the other hand, what has greater circulation than---rubbish! Oh, create silence!" Soren Kierkegaard, For Self-Examination 1851 p. 47-48 Hong 1990

A pertinent video which could be annotated in multiple ways by addressing the agency of accessories as a form of empowerment for drag people in a new subjectivity.
Some guiding questions raised by your topic and your in-class presentation:
How will you convey defamiliarization by using the psychoanalytic of Freud through the point of view of the objects?
Do you think about incorporating comparative analysis of drag's objects used in performances?
In your scholarly sources, will you allude to how posthuman drags can reassert their role in society in an "embodied" way?
As you mentioned in your presentation, I would say that the idea that accessories can become a state of becoming into a cyborg figure (machine aesthetic) could be explored in relation to a vitalist materialist approach to a certain extent.

Defining social role as the enactment of rights and duties attached to a given status, 'We can say that a social role will involve one or more parts and that each of these different parts may be presented by the performer on a series of occasions to the same kinds of audience or to an audience of the same persons
So there is not one performance of self; there are many performances of self, playing out in tandem with others.
I shall be concerned only with the participant's dramaturgical problems of presenting the activity before others.
Only concerned with the presentation of self and not with self itself as we may define it internally. Goffman's definition of self relies upon the reception of another interactant.
e may also note that an intense interest in these disruptions comes to play a signifi cant role in the social life of the group
Are we then more defined by what bends or breaks our barriers than the barriers themselves?
The individual's initial projection commits him to what he is proposing to be and requires him to drop all p re te n c e s of being other things
You must follow-through, it seems or else the whole charade falls through.
In Ichheiser's term s1, the indi vidual will have to act so that he intentionally or unintention ally expresses himself, and the others will in turn have to be impressed in some way by him
Self, then, lies not only in one individual; an interaction seems to be required an and impression made in order for a conception of self to exist. At least, according to Goffman.

Years of metrics-driven growth, lucrative manipulative systems, and unregulated platform marketplaces, have created an environment where it makes more sense to be fake online — to be disingenuous and cynical, to lie and cheat, to misrepresent and distort — than it does to be real.
I'm not sure I wholly agree with his statement but I do believe it is important to consider. To me, I believe different environments enhance aspects of ourselves already present. I don't believe these sites are fully responsible for our own actions. That said, I agree, in some ways, that we are being incredibly manipulated into being the worst versions of ourselves in online spaces. It's more profitable to bring out the worst in us than the best--at least, that's what Big Business seems to believe. I find it hard to believe, though, that we can be all that much more fake online than in-person--if you really think about it. We are always modulating ourselves and our reactions to accommodate those around us. We are constantly being told not to be ourselves through social, academic, professional, etc. conditioning. Does anybody really know who they are? Do you? I just don't think it's apt or fair to say that we are being anymore fake online when there's no proof we were ever being real before.

It is no longer enough to automate information flows about us; the goal now is to automate us. These processes are meticulously designed to produce ignorance by circumventing individual awareness and thus eliminate any possibility of self-determination.

Revisiting Self-Supervised Visual Representation Learning
- Jan 2019
The interplay between the present as actual and the presentas virtual spells the rhythms of subject formation.
Following their Foucault reference, this reminds me of his "Self Writing" piece. The self is formed through the physical, material act of writing -- "the present as actual" -- and the transmission of self across space and time through the letter -- "the present as virtual". The subject, then, emerges against the interplay of the material and the virtual.

This information was not explicitly stated in either article, but the sample and community description makes it clear that the participants of these studies are the same people, though the sample sizes differ slightly (ns = 85 and 86). However, this redundancy did not produce any analysis problems because the correlation matrix in the Grigorenko et al. (2001) article was not positive definite.
The duplication of data across articles and the non-positive definite dataset have never been fully explained. In light of Sternberg's history of self-plagiarism (see link below), this is troubling.
What if we rode harder onthe performative, as Barad urges, seeing it as"material enactments that contribute to, andare a part of, the phenomena we describe."19This ontological shift asks us to situate thehuman more complexly in the material world, and seek out fresh understandings ofhow it manifests in who we are and what we do.
This reminds me of Foucault's Self Writing.
foucault.info foucault.info
a relationship of oneself with oneself
Kierkegaard argues in The Sickness Unto Death that a human being is a synthesis of opposites; infinite and finite, freedom and necessity, etc. The "self," then, is the relation of these two opposites, and, in addition to that relation relating to each of the opposites, the relation also relates itself to itself.
I think all I'm really trying to say is that Kierkegaard wrote a ton, and some of it sounds very similar to what is being suggested by Foucault. Also, Kierkegaard may be a great place for us to turn to find help in understanding Foucault.
Throughout this section, Foucault characterizes correspondence as a way to reveal the self: "a certain way of manifesting oneself to oneself and to others," to "show oneself," "a decipherment of the self by the self as an opening one gives the other onto oneself."
This sort of 'opening' is to make oneself vulnerable, to be seen by others. (cf. Marback's "A Meditation on Vulnerability in Rhetoric")
This is characteristic particularly of writing that is intended for others (correspondence), but in what ways are other forms of writing equally--if not more--revealing of the self?
(That also makes me question whether any writing is truly for the self and not intended in some way for others. Even diaries/journals are written with the possible eventuality that someone other than the writer will read it.)

The quality of self-disclosure refers to the extent to which the software renders visible the ways in which it effects us as subjects. Self-disclosure calls users' awareness to what the software is trying to make of them, and it both intro-duces a critical distance between users and interactions, and also creates opportunities for users to define themselves for software.
Quality of self-disclosure -- how technology brackets user identity that is relevant to the software/product and renders the rest of us as invisible

Second, I have a not-very-well supported theory that's paired with the book Thinking, Fast and Slow. The behavior design implication of that book is that you need to speak to two systems of the brain. Speaking to the rational, Slow System is easy. Just lay out the facts.Speaking to the emotional Fast System is much harder, namely because it's so hard to see or introspect on what's going on in there. But if you accept that difficulty (and this is the part of my theory that feels like pop brain science), then you realize that you need to start looking for ways to rewire your emotional core.Then, having accepted that rewiring your emotions is part of most behavior design, I've started to notice things — like that most self-improvement advice is not very rational. That's by design. A self-improvement book is mostly emotional rewiring. That is exactly why you need to read the entire book rather than cheating with a summarized version.
This is an interesting sounding take. Worth thinking about further.

Why, though, do we not romanticize our preservation? The same matter of chance, of the fleeting nature of fate exists on the other side of the coin. What would have happened if we were better rested, if our energy was better preserved, if we managed our time and said what we really mean? Rarely do we approach whether we get eight hours of sleep with the same guilt as we do whether or not we attended a party, even when, according to sleep expert Matthew Walker, sleep deprivation prevents the brain from remembering information, creating new memories, and sustaining emotional well-being.

The Modern Stoicism movement traces its roots to Victor Frankl's (Sahakian 1979) logotherapy, as well as to early versions of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, for instance in the work of Albert Ellis (Robertson 2010). But Stoicism is a philosophy, not a therapy, and it is in the works of philosophers such as William Irvine (2008), John Sellars (2003), and Lawrence Becker (1997) that we find articulations of 21st century Stoicism, though the more self-help oriented contribution by CBT therapist Donald Robertson (2013) is also worthy of note. All of these authors attempt to distance the philosophical meaning of "Stoic"—even in a modern setting—from the common English word "stoic," indicating someone who goes through life with a stiff upper lip, so to speak. While there are commonalities between "Stoic" and "stoic," for instance the emphasis on endurance, the latter is a diminutive version of the former, and the two should accordingly be kept distinct.

Self-directed learning is independent—it provides the learner with the ability to make choices, to take responsibility for their own learning, and "the capacity to articulate the norms and limits of learned society, and personal values and beliefs" (Goddu, 2012).In self-directed learning, the instructor shifts from the leader of the learning experience to the "facilitator of learning," becoming"a source to be tapped, as required by the learner" (Robotham 1995, as cited in Goddu 2012). Self-directed learning provides students with the "opportunity and freedom to choose the means of acquiring knowledge that is best suited" to them based on their own self-knowledge (Alex et al., 2007). In online or blended environments, self-directed learning canbe offered through the creation of "dynamic learning environments where students may go beyond content presented by the instructor to explore, interact with, comment on, modify, and apply the set content and additional content they discover or create through the learning process" (LeNoue, 2011).
This article reviews effective teaching characteristics and effective teaching methods and strategies to engage adult learners. The piece goes further in exploring five specific teaching methods to support adult learning: self-directed, active, experiential, collaborative, and narrative.

Humans participate in social learning for a variety of adaptive reasons, such as reducing uncertainty (Kameda and Nakanishi, 2002), learning complex skills and knowledge that could not have been invented by a single individual alone (Richerson and Boyd, 2000; Tomasello, Kruger, and Ratner, 1993), and passing on beneficial cultural traits to offspring (Palmer, 2010). One proposed social-learning mechanism is prestige bias (Henrich and Gil-White, 2001), defined as the selective copying of certain "prestigious" individuals to whom others freely show deference or respect in orderto increase the amount and accuracy of information available to the learner.Prestige bias allows a learner in a novel environment to quickly and inexpensively choose from whom to learn, thus maximizing his or her chances of acquiring adaptive behavioral so lutions toa specific task or enterprisewit hout having to assess directly the adaptiveness of every potential model's behavior.Learners provide deference to teachers in order to ingratiate themselves with a chosen model, thus gaining extended exposure to that model(Henrich and Gil-White, 2001).New learners can then use that information—who is paying attention to whom—to increase their likelihood of choosing a good teacher.
Throughout this article are several highlighted passages that combine to form this annotation.
This research study presents the idea that the social environment is a self-selected learning environment for adults. The idea of social prestige-bias learning is intriguing because it is derived from the student, not an institution nor instructor. The further idea of selecting whom to learn from based on prestige-bias also creates further questions that warrant a deeper understanding of the learner and the environment which s/he creates to gain knowledge.
Using a previously conducted experiment on success-based learning and learning due to environmental change, this research further included the ideal of social prestige-biased learning.self-selected by the learner.
In a study of 167 participants, three hypotheses were tested to see if learners would select individual learning, social learning, prestige-biased learning (also a social setting), or success-based learning. The experiment tested both an initial learning environment and a learning environment which experienced a change in the environment.
Surprisingly, some participants selected social prestige-biased learning and some success learning and the percentages in each category did not change after the environmental change occurred.
Questions that arise from the study:
- Does social prestige, or someone who is deemed prestigious, equate to a knowledgeable teacher?
- Does the social prestige-biased environment reflect wise choices?
- If the student does not know what s/he does not know, will the social prestige-bias result in selecting the better teacher, or just in selecting a more highly recognized teacher?
- Why did the environmental change have little impact on the selected learning environment?

Snap asserting voter registration as a facet of that identity is significant
Social media is a platform of self identity. We spend quite a bit of time "perfecting" the look of our social media pages and representing ourselves in a certain way. For Snapchat to use this idea to affect how we want to be seen is a smart move, especially because of how much we rely on social media for our public image and the increase in voting popularity and discussion.

Another approach to confinement is to build rules into the mind of the created superhuman entity (for example, Asimovs Laws of Robotics). I think that any rules strict enough to be effective would also produce a device whose ability was clearly inferior to the unfettered versions (so human competition would favor the development of the more dangerous models).
The author points out that human competition, which thus far has driven the exponential development/advancement of technology, would drive developers towards the "unfettered versions." While I agree that it would likely be the case, I think it's possible that the author is underestimating how much of ourselves would likely end up in the superhuman. Aspects of humanity that were likely never intended to be in the superhuman, but will end up there inherently due to who is programming it.

The researchers anticipated that four aspects of mindfulness would predict higher self-esteem: Labeling internal experiences with words, which might prevent people from getting consumed by self-critical thoughts and emotions; Bringing a non-judgmental attitude toward thoughts and emotions, which could help individuals have a neutral, accepting attitude toward the self; Sustaining attention on the present moment, which could help people avoid becoming caught up in self-critical thoughts that relate to events from the past or future; Letting thoughts and emotions enter and leave awareness without reacting to them.

Think about it this way: How much better might it feel to take a breath after making a mistake, rather than berating ourselves?"All you have to do is think of going to a friend," Dr. Neff said. "If you said, 'I'm feeling fat and lazy and I'm not succeeding at my job,' and your friend said, 'Yeah, you're a loser. Just give up now. You're disgusting,' how motivating would that be?"This is the linchpin of being kinder to ourselves: Practice what it feels like to treat yourself as you might treat a friend. In order to trade in self-abuse for self-compassion, it has to be a regular habit.AdvertisementSo the next time you're on the verge of falling into a shame spiral, think of how you'd pull your friend back from falling in, and turn that effort inward. If it feels funny the first time, give it second, third and fourth tries.And if you forget on the fifth, remember: Four tries is a lot better than zero.
But it's step three, according to Dr. Brewer, that is most important if you want to make the shift sustainable in the long term: Make a deliberate, conscious effort to recognize the difference between how you feel when caught up in self-criticism, and how you feel when you can let go of it."That's where you start to hack the reward-based learning system," Dr. Brewer said.
The second step to self-compassion is to meet your criticism with kindness. If your inner critic says, "You're lazy and worthless," respond with a reminder: "You're doing your best" or "We all make mistakes."
3 steps to self-compassionFirst: Make the choice that you'll at least try a new approach to thinking about yourself. Commit to treating yourself more kindly — call it letting go of self-judgment, going easier on yourself, practicing self-compassion or whatever resonates most. To strengthen the muscle, Dr. Brewer suggests "any type of practice that helps us stay in the moment and notice what it feels like to get caught up. See how painful that is compared to being kind to ourselves."
core to self-compassion is to avoid getting caught up in our mistakes and obsessing about them until we degrade ourselves, and rather strive to let go of them so we can move onto the next productive action from a place of acceptance and clarity

But what makes the story in places like Toledo and the region around it hard for many politicians and even economists to understand is that the anxiety goes well beyond automation and the number of jobs. For many people, your job defines your life.
People have come to believe that they, their jobs, their communities, and the social contract that binds them to work and place and each other are under threat. And they're not wrong.

But it's the second part of that definition that has proven the most helpful for me: 'recognising that one's own experience is part of the common human experience'. It's the idea of taking a zoomed-out look at yourself, and realising that you are more similar to others than you are different, even (maybe especially) considering how ridiculous you often are. As Neff herself said in an interview with The Atlantic in 2016: '[W]hen we fail, it's not "poor me," it's "well, everyone fails." Everyone struggles. This is what it means to be human.'In fact, it's this part of the definition of self-compassion that makes me question whether it should be called self-compassion at all. Neff's concept isn't really about adoring yourself, or not entirely, anyway; this piece of it isn't actually about you. Rather, it's about the importance of recalling that you are but one small part of an interconnected whole.

Psychologists used to talk about perfectionism as though it were unidimensional — only directed from the self to the self. That's still the colloquial usage, what we usually mean when we say someone's a perfectionist. But in the last few decades, researchers have found it productive to broaden the concept. Curran and Hall rely on a multidimensional definition, encompassing three types of perfectionism: self-oriented, other-oriented, socially prescribed. Self-oriented perfectionism is the tendency to hold oneself to an unrealistically high standard, while other-oriented perfectionism means having unrealistic expectations of others. But "socially prescribed perfectionism is the most debilitating of the three dimensions of perfectionism," Curran and Hall contend.

Again, I find it important to note the emphasis placed by the founders on encouraging social intelligence as well as academic intelligence. The University was not meant solely as an institution of book-learnin', but also one of character development. Still, this sentiment is rather ironic in the face of UVA's history, but I prefer to look at it from the perspective of self-betterment. The social relations of the university are certainly included in "all the social situations under which [the student] shall be placed," so change can be made from the inside, especially with the advent of student self-governance.

They should be lodged in dormitories, making a part of the general system of buildings.
The emphasis in this document on lodging students in dorms is less about giving students housing and more about establishing a living and learning environment. This living/learning environment runs much deeper than a classroom education, but is associated with UVa's insistence on stressing student self governance. However, this idea of self governance cannot be achieved if the students do not live together in a society where the "government" can function. Living together is part of this education the university was so set on establishing; when people live in close quarters, they are able to learn from each other and really begin to establish an environment for themselves. This idea is still prevalent at UVa today where first years must live on grounds and essentially start their journey together.

Because it is so important to be seen as competent and productive members of society, people naturally attempt to present themselves to others in a positive light. We attempt to convince others that we are good and worthy people by appearing attractive, strong, intelligent, and likable and by saying positive things to others (Jones & Pittman, 1982; Schlenker, 2003). The tendency to present a positive self-image to others, with the goal of increasing our social status, is known as self-presentation, and it is a basic and natural part of everyday life.
A short film captures how social interactions influence our complex relationships between self-presentation, self-esteem and self concept in a unique way.

n this article, we outline the basic features of the strategy that Cracolice and Roth (1996) refer to: the Personalized System of Instruction (PSI), which is also known as the Keller Plan. PSI is a non-traditional method of teaching that thousands of instructors have used at colleges and universities since the 1960s. Although PSI is an effective and empirically validated method of instruction, many traditional and distance educators are unfamiliar with the system, mainly because dissemination of the method occurred during the 1970s, before an entire generation of instructors assumed their positions, and before distance learning came into prominence.
This paper provides a good overview of PSI, including it's initial development, rise to prominence, why it fell out of favor as a method and opportunities for use in online courses.
It used rich media and a mix of traditional and emerging asynchronous computer-mediated communication tools to determine what forms of interaction learners in a self-paced online course value most and what impact they perceive interaction to have on their overall learning experience. This study demonstrated that depending on the specific circumstance, not all forms of interaction may be either equally valued by learners or effective.
The results show that students most highly value interactions with the instructor and content.

The performance of students in a remedial college mathematics course was examined as a function of class format (self-paced or lecture), achievement goal orientation and mathematics anxiety.
This study looks at the performance of students in both self-paced and instructor led remedial mathematics courses and examined results as a function of goal orientation and math anxiety. Students with higher learning goal orientation rather than performance goal orientation earned higher grades. There was no substantial difference in overall performance between self-paced and instructor led, although students with learning orientation performed better in the instructor led course.
Although the classes were taught differently, the final course grades were not different. This is contrary to earlier research (Canelos & Ozbeki, 1983; Eniaiyeju, 1983) which found an advantage for self-paced instruction. Previous researchers did not look specifically at remedial mathematics classes and this may be one reason for the difference in results. Another possible reason may be that the self-paced class in this study lacked one aspect often found in self-paced instruction: a mastery-oriented method. While these self-paced students had the opportunity to take the test several times and count the highest grade, there was no requirement that they achieve a certain level of achievement before advancing to the next level as the mastery method requires. Buskist, Cush, & DeGrandpre (1991) found the mastery criterion to be an important variable in the success of self-paced instruction.
How important are mastery oriented methods to self-paced instruction? It would have been nice if they altered the design of the self-paced course to include mastery methods to see if there was any difference.
Teachers can continually remind students to narrow their focus to a step by step, systematic process, to persist and to acknowledge and reinforce persistence. When, for a variety of reasons, students do not use this mastery orientation, teachers can help students see how they lower their own achievement.
Could mastery focused course design help to encourage and promote mastery/growth behaviors in students?

This study compares performance in a face to face, online and strategically designed self-paced online course. The results showed small performance improvements for the self-paced students compared with the face to face students and larger improvements when compared to the instructor paced online course. The researchers speculate that the increased flexibility allows learners to achieve maximum performance, but this result could also be attributed to the design improvements. They discuss the design improvements made to the self-paced course, but do not share any information about the design of the face to face or instructor paced online courses. It would be interesting to see if design improvements in those formats that provided the same opportunities for interaction and feedback would change the results.

A course design question for self-paced courses includes whether or not technological measures should be used in course design to force students to follow the sequence intended by the course author. This study examined learner behavior to understand whether the sequence of student assignment submissions in a self-paced distance course is related to successful completion of the course.
This study found that students who accessed part of the course out of sequence had a higher completion rate than those students who followed the instructor's designed sequence more rigidly.

Clark's work with developmental math is part of a bigger transformation going on at Oregon State. A three-year, $515,000 initiative funded by an Association of Public and Land-grant Universities (APLU) grant is enabling educators to overhaul eight high-enrollment general education courses classrooms with adaptive and interactive learning systems.

If it can be established that student self motivation has a direct effect on remediation, it stands to reason that by finding a way to increase a student's self motivation, the remediation process can be improved to increase the likelihood of success for a student who requires the use of remedial courses in the specialized classroom setting. Attempting to understand the factors that create a learning environment of poor motivation is an arduous task, but attempting to improve those factors that increase motivation is imperative.
This study involves a self-paced developmental mathematics course (N=86). The results showed that the students' perceived intrinsic value of the learning was a significant predictor of success in the course. Motivation had a greater impact on students' ability to succeed than prior knowledge (based on ACT math scores).

Unlike Crowley from the first section, Walker emphasizes repetition as productive for learning; however, like deliberate practice or critical practice, reflection is once again practice's central mechanism
It seems like "self-aware feedback loops" are the key to repetition becoming practice, if I am reading this correctly. So the repetition is not necessarily the central feature, it is the self-awareness of the student that marks the difference in the value of repetition.

oil and gas exploration in and around the Beaufort Sea concerns the people who live there, because they depend on the fish, seals, whales and polar bears for which the Beaufort Sea is vital habitat.
As the ecological impact of the region is considered, it is worthy to note the group consciousness that the Alaskan natives experienced with regards to this risk. The heightened awareness of this ecological impact on the region became evident in the political activism and energy behind these local communities in the decade leading up to the project proposal. With the expanding presence of oil and gas extractive companies in the Northern Yukon and surrounding territories, a strong negative externality was exerted onto "fur-bearing creatures" and the resulting trapping lifestyle of the indigenous communities. Furthermore, the integrity of the region's permafrost became comprised with the widespread and often times ill-measured construction of roads and conduct of industrial activity. Finally, the studied biodiversity of the Arctic region indicated that the ecosystem proved to be particularly vulnerable to the impacts of manmade industrial activity. These elements of vulnerability and danger to the Arctic region contributed to the notion that its ecosystem had become decidedly "disturbed" by the impacts of industrial development. This collective experience of a disturbed ecosystem led to the emergence of political activist groups such as Inupiat Paitot (or the "peoples heritage"), a political organization with the mission to serve all Alaskan natives against the external pressures of the oil and gas industries. As the development of a group consciousness among Alaskan natives grew, and subsequent grassroots organizations began to take on the political cause in the Arctic, national and international efforts to confront environmental science were simultaneously becoming a formalized and mainstream effort within into policy-making and industrial project consideration. Upon the initial arrival of the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry in 1974, the stage was set for a grassroots movement against the project. In defense of an ecosystem at severe risk of damage, Alaskan natives now possessed the political and social capital necessary to bring about a concerted effort to preserve the region's resources as well as the self-determination of indigenous communities.

Uber's self-driving car program, suspended in San Francisco two months ago, had mapping problems that caused the cars to run at least six red lights in the city, the New York Times reports.
The biggest challenge in building an autonomous vehicle is giving the car the ability to see the world. It requires a thorough understanding of lidar, the radar-like system of lasers that creates the digital map each car needs to navigate the world safely and competently.

text: I have read a lot of posts on the OAL 300 RUM. There seems to be big difference from about 3.600 to 3.700. Is this because the bullet ogive for a specific grain changes from lot to lot and manufacturer? I would think that factory rifles 300 RUm Sendero SF would all have about the same length to the lands. Give or take .005 one would think. I know that some want the rounds to fit into the magazine and others single feed, but I would think to a group of rifles made by the same manufacturer would be closer in OAL than that. I guess what I really would like to know is everyone here seems to measure OAL but shouldn't we be measuring from the ogive to the base of the shell.

How clever is Thea's mum? She made all the props for the session herself and I think they were beautiful!
She supposed to have a cake smash session too but I think it's fair to say Thea was more interested in the camera than in her cake. haha.

Edward T. Babinski: The first billion years of the earth's formation there was no life so far as anyone knows. The earth was being bombarded with debris as it cooled. And the early pre-Cambrian contains no fossilized evidence of even the simplest life forms. Some say that perhaps life or reproducing chemicals formed more than once and were destroyed more than once as asteroids from the early star system continued colliding with earth and the other planets, i.e., before the orbiting ring of matter round the sun had assumed more regular and less dangerous orbits.

PDF (Acrobat) Document File
Be sure that you have an application to open this file type before downloading and/or purchasing.
Included in this package is a 9-page (8.5 X 5.5 inch pages) book about animals on the farm! This book is fun, informative and a great book for those early learners!
I created this book for my Pre-Kinders. I made it to be easily cut down the middle and then gathered and stapled to make a mini book. I have my little guys practice their cutting skills by cutting them along the dotted line and then they bring their pages to me to staple. After I staple them, they have to then write their name and trace over all the words. After tracing the words, they color the pictures, and we choral-read the book as a class and then they read it by themselves. After, they get to take them home and have a book they can read on their own!!! They are SO excited to go home and tell their parents they can read their own book! This would be great for Kindergarteners, First Graders and even ESOL students!
Hope you enjoy them! Please let me know if you have any troubles downloading or if anything is wrong with any pages.
If you need it in D'Nealian font, send me a message and I'll make one for you!

Thanks so much!

Boston College vs North Carolina Preview and Prediction
Boston College vs North Carolina Preview
For the first time in 2018, the North Carolina Tar Heels will take comfort at the Dean E. Smith Center and work towards a victory–something they haven't been able to do the last two times out.
"There's not much relief because Boston College is coming to town," North Carolina coach Roy Williams said Monday.
The Tar Heels (12-4, 1-2 ACC) have lost back-to-back games for the first time since February 2016. There hasn't been a three-game slide for North Carolina since January 2014, something it hopes to avoid at the Smith Center.
So this might not be the best time for Boston College to be showing up. Eagles coach Jim Christian said there's no reason to think the Tar Heels have taken a big drop.
"I see a very good basketball team. I see a team when shots go in, everybody looks good," Christian said. "… They've also played two (ACC) road games. It's not an easy game on the road. They've played two fantastic teams on the road. They're the defending national champion. Until somebody knocks them off the pedestal, that's how I view (them)."
North Carolina's losses last week came to two nationally ranked teams, with a setback at Florida State before the Virginia game.
Boston College (11-5, 2-2), which defeated then-No. 1 Duke last month, is coming off Saturday's 77-71 victory against visiting Wake Forest.
Junior guard Jerome Robinson of Boston College will be making a homecoming of sorts because he's from nearby Raleigh. In four ACC games, he's averaging a league-best 26.5 points per game (while he's fourth in the ACC at 18.4 for all games this season).
"Especially in ACC play, his numbers have been staggering," Christian said. "I just think he's a more mature player."
North Carolina has been consistent from half to half in some ways. The Tar Heels have scored 661 points in the first halves of games and 661 in the second halves.
North Carolina is 14-4 against Boston College since the Eagles joined the ACC. The Tar Heels have won the last 10 meetings.
I expect North Carolina to get back on track with a home victory over an improving Boston College team. With the line hovering around -15 for the Tar Heels, it may be scary to lay those points down, but the outcome will be well worth it.
North Carolina 92 Boston College 76
