Avalon School to move to new location at St. Catherine Laboure Parish in Wheaton
May 25, 2018
The latest local and global Catholic news delivered to your inbox.
This summer, when The Avalon School relocates from Gaithersburg to its new home on the campus of St. Catherine Laboure Parish, Wheaton, it will be the first time in the all-boys Catholic school's 15-year history that it will be adjacent to a Catholic church.
"Most notable will be having a permanent tabernacle with the Real Presence (of Our Lord)," said Kevin Davern, headmaster of The Avalon School. "It's the heart."
Richard McPherson, president of The Avalon and Brookewood Schools, said, "The move is extremely exciting for us. For the first time, since our second year as a school, we will be in a building that will allow us to grow our enrollment. We will have the Blessed Sacrament nearby at all times to help us grow spiritually."
McPherson also noted the close proximity of Wheaton's Claridge Park with its 20-plus acres and that Avalon will now be less than two miles from its sister school, Brookewood, an all-girls Catholic school for grades 1-12 in Kensington.
"After 15 years, in four different buildings, we feel like we now have a real home for Avalon," he said. Avalon's school motto, "Duc in Altum," (Luke 5:4) means "put out into the deep," an-oft repeated dictum of St. Pope John Paul II inviting the faithful to look to the future with hope and confidence.
With 220 boys in grades K-12, Avalon's move to the larger and refurbished building facilities of St. Catherine Laboure School, which closed its doors in 2013, is both welcome and joyous news in the school's tight-knit community.
"Avalon is such a great school, really like a family. We have treasured our experiences there over the years and can't wait for this new, exciting chapter," said Maria Calvetti, a longtime school parent of three Avalon boys – a 2017 graduate and two current students.
The former St. Catherine Laboure School building has 22 large classrooms, science and computer lab space, an auditorium, as well as a field and a gymnasium. St. Catherine Laboure Parish offers two daily Masses and has a Eucharistic Adoration chapel.
To help facilitate the transition in September, Avalon will offer free shuttle service next school year from its current site in Gaithersburg; from Milestone Center in Germantown; as well as from the Wheaton Metro, and plans to add additional shuttles from other areas as needed.
Under the direction of Father Francisco Aguirre, administrator of St. Catherine Laboure Church, the parish will continue to provide a weekly Catholic religious education program for more than 1,100 students and adults.

Russia: You shall not pass: Russia changes rules for foreign warships navigating through its Arctic
Russia is updating its navigation rules for a contingency involving another nation's warships attempting to sail along the Northern Sea Route. Such a passage would require prior notification from the Defense Ministry.
The route, situated in the Arctic along Russia's northern coast, is becoming more accessible to sea traffic as the climate warms. With longer navigation seasons and fewer ice hazards, Russia hopes the path will be increasingly in demand for international commercial transit. Such navigation however more often than not requires Russia's cooperation, since an icebreaker usually is needed to pass through.
There is however a potential source of problems with Russia's northern side becoming more accessible. Foreign military ships may travel it too, even those lacking ice protection, as was proven by the Loire-class offshore support and assistance ship of the French Navy Rhône in October. It took the ship 17 days to traverse the route and she didn't ask for Russian icebreaker assistance for it.
Hopefully,these issues can be resolved to everyone's mutual satisfaction, if logic and profits can be allowed to work here, together.

Storm Conor batters the North with 95mph winds… while the south enjoys the second warmest Christmas on record… but it's set to FREEZE everywhere this week
An amber "be prepared" weather warning is in place for the Highlands and Northern Isles
STORM Conor is set to batter the north of the country with 95mph winds, while the south continues to enjoy the second warmest Christmas on record - but it isn't set to last.
An amber "be prepared" weather warning is in place for the Highlands and Northern Isles with lesser yellow warnings issued for much of the rest of Scotland where winds are reaching 50-60mph.
The latest weather front is following a similar track to Storm Barbara, which left around 25,000 homes in the north of Scotland without power on Friday.
Conor has already bought winds of 95mph to Shetland and is expected to continue battering the north of Scotland throughout today.
Snow showers are also forecast with areas of the north already coated in a white blanket.
Meanwhile, after the second warmest Christmas Day on record the south of the country is continuing to enjoy mild temperatures - but it's not set to last.
Met office forecaster Sophie Yeomans said temperatures are already starting to tumble with the risk that persistent mist could stop the mercury rising above 0C later in the week.
Weather warnings in place for Storm Conor are valid into this evening with predictions of difficult travel conditions, bridge closures, ferry delays, downed power supplies and large waves affecting coastal areas.
It follows days of disruption as a result of Storm Barbara.
At its height Barbara saw gusts of 83mph recorded at Sella Ness, Shetland, 79mph at Islay, Argyll, and 75mph at Mona, Anglesey.
However, the strongest gust across exposed mountain sites was 117mph over Cairngorm in the Highlands.
Power had to be restored to more than 21,000 homes as the the north west of Scotland and the Western Isles bore the brunt of high winds and lightning strikes.
William Hill has reported that no snow fell over the 24hrs of Christmas day in any of the 16 cities where bets were offered.
Punters who backed Aberdeen had a very near miss with snow falling in the early hours of boxing day. Predictions for 2017 are already backing it tto be the hottest on record.
William Hill spokesman Rupert Adams said: "We have had another disappointing year for white Christmas fans and we are just 50/1 that London sees no White Christmases before 2050."
The weather wasn't enough to stop hundreds of swimmers plunging into the sea for a Christmas day dip yesterday.
People can call 105, a free new national phone line, if the weather damages their local power network and affects electricity supply.
The number is available to people in England, Scotland and Wales, regardless of who they buy electricity from.

I've come to realize that thus far I've primarily highlighted the positive aspects of my journey. I'm so young and found what I was passionate about in life. I found a way to start working towards it. I'm living on an island where it doesn't get colder than 70 degrees (F) while Chicago is competing with Antarctica for the most inhumane living conditions. I'm grateful and I'm blessed but above all, I am privileged.
During undergrad, I took several courses categorized as the social sciences. Cultural Anthropology, Sociology, and Gender Race and Class, to name a few. To me, it was not enough to be learning about the scientific basis of the human body and mind; our world is much more complex than that. We are creatures of habit, yet constantly evolving. We exist in communities, societies, populations, but fight to have individual voices heard. The year was 2014 and being "Woke," was the latest trend. #BlackLivesMatter had become a national movement. For the most part, the narrative of social justice conversations were The Colored Man v. The White Man. Understandably so, because the systemic basis of our country is the oppression of anyone who is not The White Man. Therefore, by extension the conversation also addressed The Colored Woman v. The White Woman. The Colored Woman v. The White Man. But also, The Colored Woman v. The Colored Man.
The general ranking is as follows in order of greatest amount of privilege to least:
1. The White Man
2. The White Man
3. The White Man
4. The White Man
5. The White Man
6.5 The White Woman
7. The Colored Man
8. The Colored Woman
9. The Colored LBGTQ Men
10. The Colored LBGTQ Women
***Note: I'm unsure of the ranking of the LBGTQ community with respect to Caucasian population, therefore I did not include it as it is not anything I have studied or come across in credible sources.
But there is another, interpersonal ranking in which White woman make more than Asian women who can make more than Black women who can make more than Latina women.
***Note: The only sure tier is White women obtaining significantly larger income than Colored women. The actual discrepancies within the different races that Colored women identify as can differ depending on demographics, familial support, and type of job.
I may be an American-Pakistani, Muslim woman. But I am ridiculously privileged compared to other American-Pakistani, Muslim women. I was born in America. My skin tone is tanned but my voice is without an accent. My English does not give anyone the ability to question whether I belong here. I never saw poverty, I never saw violent crimes. I hardly experienced extreme racism and I was well sheltered, protected and loved by my family. By no means was my life perfect. But it was and has been good.
My immigrant parents faced adversities. My immigrant parents faced extreme racism. My immigrant father worked three jobs at a time so him and my mother could move out of a poverty-stricken area. My parents did everything and survived everything they have for the potential child (ME!) they would have one day and their desperate ambition to want more for that child than they had for themselves. Before I even turned 6, we moved into a beautiful neighborhood with an incredible school district. My mom made me breakfast every single morning and drove my sister and I to school. The population in our small town was predominantly white. 98% white. I did not notice until middle school when that sort of cultural difference begins to reveal itself. Not being allowed to sleepover, having earlier curfews, our family dynamic being different than others- it developed into eventual teen angst as expected.
Cue the identity crisis, the divide between rebelling and sticking to your roots. The whole nine yards, I lived it. To get to this point, where I have the maturity to remember and be ashamed of how I behaved is a gift. I do not think I would have gotten to this point had I not gone through that. Because what I did in that period of time was constantly, consistently, compare myself to everyone around me.
I wanted to be the same. I wanted a name someone knew how to pronounce without glancing twice, I wanted to stay out as late as possible, I wanted to wear whatever I wanted and say whatever I wanted. I yearned for privacy from my parents because I assumed they could not possibly understand. My father had completed his undergraduate degree in the states but I dismissed his experiences as they were over a decade from where I was standing. I did not understand privilege, I could not empathize the way I have learned to today. All I could see was the blind comparison between where I was and where everyone around me seemed to be.
To an extent, I can see why I was like that and why so many people in that age group and period of time are still like that. We are limited in our understanding of the world. We are limited in our understanding of how there is a life beyond school, beyond the people you see on a daily basis because we are not taught to be ambitious or want more for ourselves than where we are at the moment. We are expected to succeed and pursue new opportunities but only within a safety net. Moving far, taking non-traditional routes, exploring new avenues is seen as provocative and adventurous. Beyond that, its deemed unneeded and problematic.
Yet, that is one of the only ways that encourages you to be different. Why are we so focused on people being as similar as possible? Constantly grouping people together based off similar interests, personalities, hobbies. Sure, there is an argument for compatibility and the ease of understanding but one needs to be equally challenged and introduced to ideas that are different than the ones they have been exposed to all their life.
When we compare ourselves to one another, we are not asking in what ways do we differ and how is that beneficial, instead we are salivating to be the other person, to have what they have, to want what they want. We want to be able to follow what someone else did, walk in their footsteps and obtain what they have. More often than not, what we consider inspiration is imitation in a hope to feel closer to what someone looks like or does. We compare ourselves to other people as a form of measurement. For some, that measurement is of success. I see so many posts and comments about tearing down someone's job or lifestyle in an attempt to justify someone else's. People saying I may not have become a lawyer but I am equally successful as a banker. I am working equally hard by being a stay-at-home mom. I have been as challenged in my role as a blogger as are doctors.
Instead of forming supportive unity, we are pitting ourselves against one another. You do not need to compare your job to one with high regard by society to emphasize it's importance. The reality is: NO TWO JOBS ARE ALIKE. Even if they are regarded similarly, like doctors and lawyers being considered to be high-status jobs- they differ hugely. You do not need to compare your successes to someone else's to validate that your successes are indeed successes. The more you compare, the unhappier you will be because the reality is there is no comparison. The more you attempt to draw comparisons, the more you will realize you have started down an endless road. There are doctors who are also mothers, there are bankers who are also musicians. People are unpredictable, their interests do not have to be limited to a single choice.
I am privileged in so many ways but as long as I was comparing myself to other people, I could not remember a single of my own individual blessings. Instead, I saw adversity everywhere because I was so focused on wanting something that I did not have. Something that I did not even need. I needed a scale to be able to understand where I was so I made one up sensing the differences between myself and others around me. Instead of grounding myself by comparing who I am as a person now versus a few years ago and what I have accomplished over time, I focused on how many barriers I had broken down in assimilating to those around me.
The worst part? I did not do it for myself or because I even wanted to. I did it because I thought it was what I was supposed to do and it did not make me happy. I found no substance, no meaning or sense of fulfillment in becoming more similar to the other people I had cherished for so long. It was a difficult and strenuous lesson learned but it is the reason I do not conform to anyone today. The reason I am not afraid to be completely honest about who I am no matter what situation I am put in. I determine my own morals, preferences and allow my actions to solely be dictated by myself. Not what anyone expects of me and not what I think is the norm or socially acceptable thing to do in that situation. I am no longer afraid to venture out on my own, to take a risk even if I am the only one doing so because I finally understand that it is so much more meaningful to be different and seek out people unlike you. There is no better way to learn about this world and how vast it really is.

iPad Mini with Retina Display Doesn't Quite Pop
One deciding factor that may lead you to chose one iPad over another, besides weight and size, maybe also lie with the color gamut of the screen. Anand Lal Shimpi goes over the entire color spectrum pointing out that the mini's display isn't as precise as compared to other similar sized tablets.
photo by AnandTech
The iPad mini with Retina Display has the same color gamut as the standard iPad mini, which is narrower than the iPad Air and less than the sRGB coverage we normally look for. The biggest issue here is that there are other smaller tablets in this price range that do offer sRGB coverage (e.g. Nexus 7, Kindle Fire HDX 8.9).
Within its gamut coverage, the mini's panel is fairly accurate. A look at our GMB checker test shows performance competitive with the Nexus 7 and not far off the 4th generation iPad. Grayscale reproduction is also quite good. The display looks really good otherwise, but you don't get the same visual punch you do on the iPad Air.
With this conclusion, are you still a fan? Which size are you going with? I'm leaning towards the Air right now but that's just my two cents.
The Wirecutter on the other hand has declared Apple's new iPad mini with Retina Display its winner for best overall tablet. Of course, if you read PDFs, sheet music or comics, the iPad Air is still the better choice.

Tim and Aubrey Dorsch
12852 Castleton Ct
St. Louis, MO 63141
Our Ministry
Aubrey graduated from Webster University, and I (Tim) graduated from Washington University in St. Louis in 2001. God transformed our lives while we were college students, and we became full-time campus ministers with Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ) after graduating. From 2011 to 2018, we gave leadership to the Cru campus ministry team and the twenty-five campuses where we launched ministries. During that time, in order to become a more effective minister of the Gospel, I also completed a Masters of Divinity at Covenant Seminary. Although we are still partnering with the campus ministry, in the summer of 2018, we began serving with Cru City, which takes Cru distinctives of Gospel ministry to meet the needs of major cities. Cru City is thriving in many major U.S. cities, and Aubrey and I are pioneering it here in St. Louis.
Cities have always been the center of civilization and life—the building blocks of humanity's knowledge, business, innovation, politics, and culture. 2,600 years ago, God called his people to "seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the Lord on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare." Similarly, the Apostle Paul made reaching cities a central part of his missionary strategy. And, now, we are in a critical time in the history of the U.S. and the world; as of a few years ago, more than half of the world resides in cities and that trend is growing quickly. Therefore, to reach the world for Christ, God's people must reach its cities. Broadly speaking, this will involve dependent prayer, the faithful ministry of churches, and the devoted witness of believers. In light of the pervasive brokenness and significant complexities of cities, how, specifically, will God's people grow in faithfully reaching our cities? Answering that question is central to my and Aubrey's calling.
Our points of emphasis are witnessing to the lost, multiplying disciple makers, reaching the many different cultures of the city, and equipping local churches and the universal church to grow in these crucial endeavors. The highest motivation for these efforts is seen in the life of Jesus for "when he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd." The crowds desperately need Jesus, the Good Shepherd!
Of course, we can't do this ministry alone! We also need people like you to pray, volunteer, and/or give financially to this vital work. As a team, we can reach the harassed and helpless by connecting them to Jesus!
We have five wonderful sons! Caleb Joshua was born in July 2005, Charles (Charlie) Nehemiah was born in February 2007, Eli Nazareth was born in December 2008, Ezra Matthias was born in May 2011, and Ezekiel (Zeke) Atticus was born in October 2012.
Partnering With Us
Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ) is now the largest evangelical organization in the United States (according to a USA Today report). Campus Crusade for Christ is active in 190 countries and employs over 27,000 full-time staff. Cru is a charter member of the Evangelical Council for Financial Accountability.
Since joining Cru (Campus Crusade for Christ), Aubrey and I have seen God provide for all of our needs through the consistent financial support of a team of ministry partners. Because there are no central funds for paying salaries, this team has provided the only income for our family and ministry.
Due to the expanding needs of our growing ministry and family we are looking for additional partners to join with us in reaching people with the gospel. Because we believe that God has called us to this we are confident that He will continue to provide for us. We are praying that God would raise up a number of families and individuals to support our ministry. We are dependent on these new partners in order to continue to serve effectively. One-time or special gifts are also very helpful and are appreciated.
Perhaps God is moving in your heart to invest in our work with spreading the gospel. If so, we would be grateful! If you have any questions, please call or email us.

Known for his powerful political statements via his decadent women's and men's clothing collections, Kerby Jean-Raymond (founder and designer of the brand, Pyer Moss), struck another resonating chord this fashion week.
Founded in 2013, Raymond's brand has become known for elegant draping and structured tailoring, yet the presentation in which his designs are delivered is what sets him apart from his contemporaries. This season, Raymond placed show attendees in the heart of Brooklyn- Brownsville to be exact… a location that's statistically been marked as 'the hood.' He transformed a Brownsville community center into a replica of an olden-time Black Baptist church and sent models down a transcending stretch- which started out as a dirt road and transitioned into a structured wooden runway flanked by multiple, flat screen TV's. Raymond's offerings for Spring/Summer 2019 included pastel-colored, silk oversized blazers with side-belting, sheer sheath dresses and quilted sashes -in blood red coloring- that resembled kneeling prayer pads. The men's offerings included mosaic-print 'Black family murals' painted onto shirts and pants and a white tuxedo look with a cummerbund that begged the phrase, 'See Us Now?'

In his second season of partnering with Reebok, Raymond showed men's patent-leather overalls, women's sweater dresses and delicate track pants. There was also a nod to the nostalgic Fubu brand with a few logo-emblazoned pieces including a sleeveless leather top and black tunic dress. Seated front-row, actress Ryan Destiny remarked that, "the show was amazing. A moment."
Supporting his setting of a Black church, Raymond was sure to include a necessary component- a Black choir, which hit all the notes of high heaven, moving the crowd to tears. In all of its glory, Raymond's show did more than just show clothing, he injected a dose of hope and joy into an open-air Brooklyn location, situated right across the street from project housing. The full choir and the atmospheric tone was what 'the hood' needed in a time like today, "A conduit for deep traumatically spiritual healing," said 'Pose' actor Ryan Jamaal Swain.

Heading East
I headed east out of Milan, I had a map and stopped on a regular basis to check my bearings. I came across what must have been the old quarter as all the buildings were dramatic and old. I arrived at what must have been an old town square, It had been turned into a roundabout, well squareabout with the city tram track circling the small building sat in the middle. I pushed my bike across the road and hidden in plain sight was an old fashion bakery which sold pizza by the meter. I couldn't resist, I locked my bike to a lamppost, which looked like it should still run on gas and went into the bakery. I ordered a small slice of pizza and coke and stood outside to eat it. The owners of this store were clever, just outside the door was a small electrical sub station box, if that's what you call them. They had glued a piece of wood to the top of it and put bar stools on either side creating an instant table, genius. I sat on the bar stool and watched Milan life, Milan is like old and new have merged creating spectacular, in front of me was an old rickety tram and off to my right was what looked like a brand new bombardier tram, the whole area was fascinating. I followed my compass east and picked up the signs for the airport which was were I needed to head to pick up the road to lake Garda.
I stopped behind the airport near Segrate, I was on a cycle path with a lake on one side and the field at the end of the runway on the other. The sun was blazing and it was hot, so I decided to take a break and hang all my gear up to dry out. I had bought a Russian salad earlier, so whilst every thing was drying I sat on the grass and ate it. A woman on her bike with two kids on roller skates stopped for a chat and told me there were no campsites nearby. The weather was good so I continued on the cycle path for about an hour before coming across the Concordia hotel, I called in to check the price. I had been freezing the night before sleeping on a trim trail so I decided to stay even though it was 60 Euros but it did include breakfast. I put my bike in garage number 2, which meant I only had to take my panniers upstairs with me. The room was basic with a tiled floor not neat square or rectangular tiles but pieces of smashed tiles heavily grouted so you didn't cut your feet. The bathroom was small, no cat swinging possible but it would do. The shower was broken, when turned on the water came out of the wrong end of the hose and you had to hold the shower head as the holder was broken. However it was clean head free WiFi and plug sockets next to the bed. Across the road was a penny market so I went and bought my provisions. A pear, banana, fizzy water and nestea.
It was the first hotel I had stayed in since leaving Saint Omer in France about 1200 miles between hotels can't be bad on a bike tour. I slept well and went down for breakfast at 08:00. The breakfast room was small had half a dozen tables and a buffet, I attempted to eat 60 Euros worth of buffet, I think I managed about 10 Euros worth. I hung around the hotel until 11:00 so I could upload video and charge everything. I took my time reloading the bike so I could balance all my gear a little better. I set off following the signs for Spizi then the SP14, I saw a garden centre and went in to look for a camping gas canister, what they had looked to big. so I didn't buy it. I visited a shop in Rodano and grabbed a focciatio with cheese for my lunch. The sp14 was a good road but I had saddle sores so stopped at a supermarket which didn't sell food but had 90% alcohol so I bought it as I planned on making a hobo stove. The cafe next door was called Perbacco and the coffee was cheap and delicious, the owners were very friendly and the weather was lovely so I sat outside wrote my journal and drank two coffees.

I'm not a gold bug, and do not own gold or gold shares of any kind (maybe I should). August 15 marked the fortieth anniversary of Richard Nixon's closing of the gold window in 1971; and I was reminded of this by an article in the August 13 issue of "The Economist." The last sentence was a shocker. It read: "In terms of the old gold measure, the dollar has devalued by 98% since the end of the Bretton Woods era." Wow!
I thought this couldn't be true; however, it is. Checking values, gold in 1971 was a few cents less than $41 per ounce, 40 years later this August 15, $1,766. Today's one US dollar will only buy 2.3% of the gold it could buy in 1971; so roughly 98% less.
With the collapse of the convertibility of money to gold, world reserve currencies became Fiat Currencies. This doesn't mean they became based upon the solvency of an Italian second-tier automobile manufacturer; rather currency is now backed by the full faith of the country issuing it.
I'm not arguing here that gold was the investment of a lifetime (its return against the dollar was just under ten percent per year); in fact the S&P 500 for the same period returned almost 12%.
Looking at the long term; however, the depressing fact is the erosive power of inflation. Trying to manage wealth for future generations is a demanding project; the "real return" for the S&P 500 for this period was only 7.2%, rises in real prices consumed 4.6%. If things held constant, and you placed $1,000,000 today in a safe deposit box and left it there for the next forty years, you would withdraw only $165,000 in purchasing power in 2050. It turns out the biggest investment "expense" is actually inflation, and the math is depressing. If one spends say 3% of retirement assets per year, one would need an 8% or 9% gross annual return on the portfolio to cover spending, taxes and the effects of inflation in order to keep wealth from declining in real terms. This is a very tough goal to achieve with, say, a lower risk, balanced portfolio.
"Fiat" is actually a Latin word, roughly translated as "to be done" or "let it be done." I guess the question becomes "let it be done" to whom?
George Bernard Shaw has a wonderful quote with which I will end: "If the governments devalue the currency in order to betray all creditors, you politely call this procedure "inflation.""

Some get help only when they reach a "crisis", which would not happen in other conditions like cancer, according to a new report.
Families caring for sufferers are also too often not told crucial information about their condition because of fears over confidentiality while doctors concerns over the risks of abuse have also gone too far, the Nuffield Council on Bioethics said.
Some families providing round the clock care for a sufferer are not even told the diagnosis, the group warned, while others are denied information about other medical conditions, such as blood pressure, which can require monitoring.
The report recommends that there should be a "presumption of trust" in unpaid carers looking after dementia sufferers, who number more than half a million in Britain.
Prof Tony Hope, from Oxford, the chairman of the working group which drew up the recommendations, said that trust in carers had eroded over the past 10 to 20 years, triggered by two factors.
He said: "One is that there is often an increasing individualism in health care, that you do not pass on patient's information to other people.
"Often this is the right thing to do but wrongly interpreted can leave out relatives who are doing most of the caring.
"The other thing is increasing concern about elder abuse.
"There is this fear that carers are potential abusers and the weight given to that fear compared to the fear that there are loving carers who need information in order to be able to care who are not getting it has perhaps become a bit unbalanced."
The report emphasises the need to respect a patient's wish for confidence over their diagnosis and treatment while they are "competent" to make these decisions.
However, in later stages doctors must work in the patients best interests and share information with their carer, the report says.
The report calls for a greater emphasis on sufferer's wellbeing and not just their medical condition.
However, the experts said that they were not calling for dementia drugs denied on the NHS to be reconsidered.
Alzheimer's groups have warned that patients face watching their condition worsen before they are given Aricept, which costs £2.50 a day and can slow the progression of the disease, because the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (Nice), the government's drugs rationing body, does not take factors such as wellbeing into account.
The council does recommend that a £120 fee to name a relative or friend as a "welfare attorney", with the power to make decisions over their treatment, should be scrapped.
The cost is a barrier to ensuring that sufferers wishes are respected, they said.
The report also calls for a marketing campaign to highlight to places like leisure centres and restaurants that they have a legal duty to make reasonable adjustments to make their premises more accessible to help people with dementia use their services.
These could include brighter lighting, the council said.
The report also called for more research into helping dementia patients' quality of life, not just into finding a medical cure for the condition, which affects around 700,000 people in Britain.
Ministers should also consider giving welfare attorneys power to decide if patients take part in research into the disease.
The report also calls for carers to be given more guidance on the use of restraint or monitoring equipment.
The group also welcomed Gordon Brown's announcement that dementia sufferers would receive free personal care in their own homes, but warned that more needed to be done to help patients in earlier stages of the disease.
Alzheimer's charities said that the report was a "call to arms" over funding.
Rebecca Wood, Chief Executive of the Alzheimer's Research Trust, said: "The fact that dementia research receives eight times less government investment than cancer research is unethical and unsustainable."
A Department of Health spokesman said that ministers would take careful account of the report in implementing care services for people with dementia.
Karen Harrison Dening, from the charity Admiral Nurse, welcomed the call for extra guidance for carers.
She said: "Day in day out carers are faced with having to make decisions on difficult and sensitive issues that affect the lives not only those with dementia, but also their own and their family's lives."
Neil Hunt, chief executive of the Alzheimer's Society, said of the report: "This report provides compelling evidence of the need for better public understanding of dementia, more support and greater investment in research.
"Families, carers and professionals face a range of complex and distressing ethical issues when caring for a person with dementia. Decisions can be hugely emotional and there are no right or wrong answers."

British battery charger manufacturers Traction Charger is proud to announce their sponsorship of Tommy Bridewell in the 2018 British Superbikes.
Tommy is from Devizes, UK which is where Traction Charger is based and as such the company has followed his rise through the biking world over the last 15 years.

Since then Traction Charger have developed many new charging related products, including the patented Sulphation Recovery Programme used by many of the world's leading battery and vehicle manufacturers.
As part of the sponsorship deal, Traction Charger will be supplying a MPL10 Battery Charger for Bridewell's Suzuki bike. The MPL is suitable for use on AGM, GEL, Calcium and Lead Acid battery types and is used by some of the world's leading vehicle and battery manufacturers. It features a patented Sulphation Recovery System, as well as reverse polarity protection, soft start current control, fast constant current bulk charge, 3-stage charging, constant voltage float/standby, independent overrun timer and accurate zero-crossing voltage sensing. It will allow Bridwell and his team constant support and output functionality during diagnostic support.
Of the new sponsorship deal, Tommy Bridewell comments "We're delighted to welcome Traction Charger on board as Sponsorship partners. Traction Charger have great battery support technology that will make a real impact in our race strategy, giving us the support and reliability during our crucial race diagnostic moments. We appreciate that Traction Charger sees the potential in us and is willing to support us as we focus on achieving our 2018 goals."
Chris Walker comments on the sponsorship. "We've been monitoring Tommy Bridewell's performance for some time and felt that his performance is excellent, he's consistent, and he has great energy - principles we feel represent the core pillars of the Traction Charger brand and products. We are proud to start this journey with him and his team, and to be part of his successes in the 2018 races. "
As part of the sponsorship deal, Traction Charger will be demonstrating the use of the MPL10 with the team in the workshop, to be published through various medias. The deal also includes logo placement on helmet and leathers, as well as social media exposure.
Traction Charger looks forward to the 2018 British Superbikes beginning of April and wishes every success to Bridewell and the team for the season.

This year, things are really changing in the middle school at Barack Obama School of Career and Technical Education! Not only is the school's climate changing, but so is the culture. The biggest change started when the middle school wing moved from the basement of the school to the main floor. Last year, students entered the school building and spent their days in classrooms with no windows, which as you can imagine, influenced students' mood and ability to learn. Now, each classroom has at least one window (usually more), and students are more focused than ever.
The school also supports City Year in our attendance goals. City Year posts a monthly update on attendance for each grade in the middle school, right outside of our City Year room, for everyone to see. Students can now see how their entire grade's attendance looks in comparison to other grade levels, which motivates them, and results in a friendly competition of what class will have the best attendance for the day.
The changes to school climate don't stop there. Each morning, students line the halls and are led in short mindfulness activities to get them ready for the day. Every Thursday, City Year leads mindfulness, and you can almost always find a Student Success Coach participating in the activity with their students! Having all of the middle school participate in an activity together at the start of every day has helped to build community. Everyone knows and has interacted with each other (even new students get to see everyone in the middle school on their first day), and overall, I think mindfulness has had a huge impact on the middle school. Students enter classrooms focused and calm, which has contributed to productive and positive classroom environments.
Lastly, the middle school has introduced differentiated reading blocks, which means that each middle school Student Success Coach gets to work with students in each grade. Students are split during reading time based on their reading scores, which gives them the ability to work with students on their reading level, who may not be in their same grade. That also means that the small tutoring groups City Year has for math and literacy, may consist of all three grade levels!
Overall, the changes in the middle school have had an amazing impact on our students' energy and their willingness to learn, and we are excited to continue seeing positive change in the year ahead!

Block-to-Block Direct Match
Below are activities that we have learned through occupational and visual therapy. Use blocks sets such as - Parquetry Block Super Set, Pattern Blocks and Boards, Pattern Blocks - to do these activities.
Block Talk
Object - For the child to build the exact same block formation with verbal cues only. In turn for the adult to be able to build the exact same block formation with verbal cues from the child only.
Set up - Have the child sit across from the adult with a partition of some kind in between making it impossible for the either side to see what is being built.
Activity - Using only 2-3 blocks, the adults forms a block creation. Using directional words (below, on top of, over, etc) describe to the child what the block formation looks like. The child then needs to build the exact same thing.
Increasing the Difficulty - To increase the difficult, add more blocks. Also add colors into the descriptions. Trade roles and have the child do the describing.
Blind Blocks
Object - For the child to be able to form a picture of an object in their mind by touch only. The child has to identify an object without seeing it.
Set up - Have the child sit across from the adult. Place shapes and various objects into a non-transparent bag.
Activity - Without looking at the shape, have the child tell you what shape it is.
To increasing the difficulty, use Touch and Match Color Recognition Toys blocks. These foam blocks have different textures as well as different amount of holes in them.
What's Missing
Place a few items on the table in front of the child. Have the child turn away while you take one object away. Have the child tell you what object is missing.
Block Patterns
Block patterns can be created from cards as well as block examples. Your Therapy Source offers a few free cards to print off.
Whether using wooden, foam, or Duplo Lego blocks, the learning from play is almost endless. Check out these ideas.
Sort the blocks by color, shape, or both color and shape.
Stacking or Building - See who can build the tallest tower or roll a dice to determine how tall to build a tower.
Numbers - Tell the child a number or show on a flashcard and then have the child lay out or stack that many blocks.
Addition or Subtraction - Use blocks as manipulative for basic math.
Patterns by Color
Patterns by Size
Match - Draw around the blocks on paper. Have the child match a block to the correct shape.
Measure with Blocks - The pencil is 9 blocks tall.
Build what I Build
CVC Words - Write letters on the side of plastic blocks with a dry erase marker. If the child is ready, have the child form CVC (Consonant/Vowel/Consonant) words.
Go Fish with Blocks - Lay a group of blocks in front of each of the players. First person asks for a certain color of block. If the next person has that block, he gives it to the player. Then the turn moves to the next person. For added difficulty, add a draw pile and match blocks as in the card game.
Recreate - Take a picture of your child's block or Lego creation. Later ask the child to recreate his creation using the image.
Fill in the Shape - With painter's tape, draw a shape. Instruct the child to fill in the shape with blocks. In reverse, have the child build a large shape, tape around it, and remove the blocks for the child to see the shape. (Thank you to Natalie for this image.)
