B. F. Skinner Quotes About EnvironmentQuotes about: Environment
Better contraceptives will control population only if people will use them. A nuclear holocaust can be prevented only if the conditions under which nations make war can be changed. The environment will continue to deteriorate until pollution practices are abandoned. We need to make vast changes in human behavior.
In the traditional view, a person is free. He is autonomous in the sense that his behavior is uncaused. He can therefore be held responsible for what he does and justly punished if he offends. That view, together with its associated practices, must be re-examined when a scientific analysis reveals unsuspected controlling relations between behavior and environment.

Innovative product design executive with proven ability to create highly profitable programs through superior design skill sets, trend execution and high level product execution regardless of distribution. My experience has enabled me to have a clear understanding of how great creative design is only successful when there's great business strategy behind it. Poor design leads to poor outcomes and poor business strategy leads to poor outcomes. I feel this is the key understanding in being successful at all distribution levels. I've designed and merchandised for my own company as well as in the mass market, collections and independent project areas. These experiences have developed me into a well rounded design executive with a multifaceted background.

RenoTracks Instructions
Upon launching the app, you'll find yourself on the "Record" screen.
Confirm the iPhone has a good fix on your location by checking the map before tapping Start. (GPS conditions sometimes prevent accurate location. If this is the case, cycle a short distance and check again.)
When you're ready to start recording your ride, tap "Start."
Recording a ride
RenoTracks will vibrate and ring like a bicycle bell periodically to remind you it is recording. If your battery goes below a 20% charge, the app will automatically stop recording and shut down.
When your ride is over, tap "Save." If you don't want to save the trip and upload the data - for whatever reason - simply choose "Cancel." If you have switched to another app while recording your ride, you can get back to RenoTracks by selecting it from your Home Screen or from the App Switcher.
Specifying the trip purpose
Select a purpose on the "Trip Purpose" screen and tap "Save." We're interested in the MAIN purpose for each trip you make. If you're unsure how to categorize a trip, select "Other" from the Trip Purpose chooser. You can always include a comment before transmitting.
Reno Tracks will prompt you to enter comments or notes on the ride, which you can skip if you have none. It will then upload your ride data, notifying you when done. If there's a problem connecting to the server, it will prompt you to retry at another time.
After your data is uploaded, Reno Tracks displays the map of your ride, showing the route, distance travelled, and average speed.
"My Trips" in the tab-bar at the bottom of the screen shows a list of all your rides, with dates, times, and mileage. Tap on a trip to display its map. Share the map with others by zooming in or out, taking a screenshot (press Sleep/wake and Home simultaneously), and sending it via email or downloading it to your computer. Tap "Edit" on the trip list to delete a trip.
Mark can be used at any time during recording or not. The purpose of 'Mark" is to mark a point of interest, any point that can help the cycling community or issues that can help improve the cycling experiance. Some examples would be marking a water fountain or bike parking location, or marking a pot-hole or other bike lane issues.
Entering personal info is completely optional and confidential, and, if you choose to participate, only has to be done once. It involves a few basic questions useful to our study. If you wish to give us your email address, someone may contact you directly about your experience using RenoTracks or bicycling in the city. Tap "Save" when finished.

When I saw the new and beautiful Keepsake Collection I thought it would be perfect for making a heavily embellished card. I decided to film a Process Video to match because I often get questions about how to begin a card that has lots of layers and embellishments, what colours and papers can be chosen to put together and what elements can be used. Today I will show you exactly how I made this one from start to finish.
To make the card I began with some folded craft card stock measuring 23 x 17cm. I cut some Photomontage (16.5 x 11cm) to fit the front of the card and a strip of Photomontage (reverse) measuring 5.5 x 16.5 cm. I inked everything with Bark ink. I layered the strip onto the card with mounting tape for extra dimension and this was the base of my card. I chose the Photomontage Paper because I liked the shade of green and I liked the small white floral clusters.
I stamped onto the Photo Frames Acetate 12x12 sheet for the sentiment of my card, because I love the novelty of this Acetate sheet and I wanted to play with it again. I used Stazon Ink to stamp onto the Acetate and it dried clearly without smudging. I backed this sentiment with Captured paper, I chose this because I felt it was a slightly different colour to the other papers on the card, but still coordinated. The thing with the Kaisercraft collections is that the colours are so well chosen you really can't go wrong with your paper choice. Everything matches really nicely so you can be confident with your paper choice. I added sticker strips for extra details and chose a lovely flower cluster sticker for my main embellishment. I wanted something large and floral. This sticker was perfect.
I used my one of my most favourite Kaisercraft Decorative Dies ever DD757 Large Flourishes . If you haven't purchased this Decorative Die yet you need to! It goes so well with Paper Blooms and most Kaisercraft Paper Collections. I find it adds a little dimension and another layer to a Multi-Layered card. I actually like to cut this die in half and pop it under some Paper Blooms. The colour of the flowers I chose was Dusty Pink, another favourite of mine. They co-ordinate nicely with lots of the Kaisercraft Paper Collections as well, so a very good colour to have in your craft supplies.
I chose some lovely Collectables to add to my card (leaves and butterflies are always good!) and layered everything together. You see how I repositioned all the elements on the card until I was happy with it in the Process Video.
I love adding the little wooden shapes from the Kaisercraft Flourish Packs. For this card I chose two photo frame corners from the Snapshot Pack. Thes add another dimension to the card that is different from paper. You can ink or colour these wooden flourishes, but for this card I chose to leave them in their original state.
Finally I embellished with some Chocolate Pearls. This finishes the card off and again gives another texture to the card. They can be added in groups of three or two, or whatever grouping you prefer.
Kaisercraft Products:
P2325 Captured | P2330 Montage | PS493 Photo Frames Acetate | SS340 Sticker Sheet | CS302 Clear Stamps | CT883 Collectables | FL602 Flourish Pack - Snapshot | DD757 Decorative Die - Large Flourishes | F641 Paper Blooms - Dusty Pink | CD651 Kraft Card Stock | SB792Pearls - Chocolate | Other: Cheese Cloth
I had a lovely time designing this card using the beautiful Keepsake Collection. I'm sure you will love this collection too. I hope you have found a little inspiration from my video. If you have any more questions feel free to leave me a comment and I can reply. Have a crafty weekend : )

Like other famous pairings throughout history—Antony and Cleopatra, Romeo and Juliet, Laverne and Shirley—salt and pepper just go together. Why not make it official? This slick gadget combines your kitchen's two must-have seasonings while taking up less space.
I already had a salt/pepper grinder that I'd bought elsewhere to use for outdoor meals. Once I found that it was being put to use almost daily (so handy to have the salt and pepper in one grinder) I plumped for this Birchbox one in white. I was surprised to find that it's much larger than my old s&p mill, but this will mean less re-filling. So, absolutely a great thing to have in the kitchen.5

Pronatal and Antinatal Policies

Transcript of Pronatal and Antinatal Policies
Pro-natal and Anti-natal Policies Pro-natal Policies Pronatalism is a belief that promotes human reproduction. It encourages child-bearing and honors parenthood. Pro-natal policies limit access to abortion and contraception. They also create financial and social incentives for the population to reproduce. When a population decline occurs, some countries take in pronatal policies in order to increase the population and cease the decline in population. Anti-natal Policies Antinatalism is a belief that discourages human reproduction. It asserts a negative moral value judgment towards bearing a child and parenthood. Anti-natal policies are government programs designed to reduce the total fertility rate. These policies are used when countries are concerned with limiting population growth. Some countries do not have enough resources in order to support a large population, so the country must ccept anti-natal policies so that their poulation does not exceed what the country can support. Mongolia Pro-Natal Policy The Mongolian government has been encouraging a larger population. The pro-natal policy was possible for Mongolia due to labor shortage and economic aid from the Soviet Union. This economic aid has enabled Mongolia to meet the costs of supporting a large and economically unproductive group of children. By reinforcing the pro-natal policy, the Mongolian ethnic group will live on and the land, key institutions, and key enterprises will be staffed and taken care of by Mongolians rather than by management imported at the order of the Soviet Union. The current population is 3,133,318 people. It has a population growth rate of 1.489%. This population pyramid of 2000 shows that Mongolia's population has recently increased greatly due to Mongolia's pro-natal policy. China Anti-Natal Policy The one-child policy refers to the one-child limitation applying to a minority of families in the population control policy of the People's Republic of China (PRC). After the introduction of the one-child policy, the fertility rate in China fell from over three births per woman in 1980 to approximately 1.8 births in 2008. This 2005 Popoluation Pyramid of China shows that the population has decreased some since the anti-mnatal policy was enforced. I think it is good that China's population has decreased so that economic problem will go away, but the increase in abortions is devistating. I think it is important that The Mongolian population increases. That way the ethnicity of the Mongolian peopl will live on. China has a current population of 1,336,718,015 people. It has a population growth rate of 0.493%. Russia Pro-Natal Policy I think it is good that a pro-natal policy was issued, because Russia is dramatically decreasing in population and labor force. This population pyramid shows that Russia's population is still and will continue to decrease regardless of Russia's pro-natal policy. There were no obsticles placed in the way of early marriages by the government and the ruling party of Mongolia. In 1985, there were 6.3 marriages and 0.3 divorces per 1,000 people. In 1989, it was reported that every twentieth marriage broke up, that more than 15,000 mothers were receiving alimony from former husbands. It was also reported that 45,000 of the 870,000 children aged 15 and younger were illegitimate. Resident Chinese laborers were expelled from Mongolia in the late 1960s as a result of the SinoSoviet conflict. Some of the Chinese laborers' alleged offenses included the possession and the distribution of contraceptives. Childbearing was promoted as every woman's patriotic obligation, and women were rewarded for reproducing. Working women were granted a maternity leave of 101 days, and the Labor Law prohibited dismissal of pregnant women and of those with children younger than one year. Parents also received family allowances in cash. Subsidies were also paid to families with more than four children younger than sixteen, and this could add up to as much as an average industrial wage. Women with five or more living children received the Order of Maternal Glory, Second Class, medal and an annual subsidy of 400 tugriks per child. Women with more than eight children received the Order of Maternal Glory, First Class, and 600 tugriks per child. The medals entitled the mothers to all-expenses paid annual vacations of two weeks at the hot springs spa of their choice, huge discounts in fees for child care, and other benefits. Marriage and childbearing were also were promoted by a special tax being put on unmarried and childless citizens between the ages of twenty and fifty. The Mongolian population rose to 2 million in 1987.The government's Central Statistical Board determined that one of the 260 babies born July 11 (Mongolia's National Day) was the 2 millionth citizen. Twenty-five of the babies were selected as "Two Million Babies." The state awarded each of their families two new residences , the Children's Foundation awarded each a 5,000-tugrik subsidy, and local governments and the parents' workplaces also gave gifts. This policy officially restricts married, urban couples to have only one child. It does allow exemptions for rural couples, ethnic minorities, and parents without any siblings themselves though. It was reported that approximately 35.9% of China's population is currently subject to the one-child restriction. The Special Administrative Regions of Hong Kong and Macau and foreigners living in China are exempted from this policy. This anti-natal policy was introduced in 1978 and initially applied to first-born children in the year of 1979. It was created by the Chinese government to ease social, economic, and environmental problems in China. Authorities claim that the policy has prevented between 250 and 300 million births from its implementation until 2000, and 400 million births from 1979 to 2011. The policy has been accused of increasing forced abortions,female infanticide, and underreported female births. It is also a possible cause behind China's gender imbalance. A son is needed to take care of the parents so the parents favor having a son rather than a daughter. This can result in abortions if the baby is a girl. It has been reported that 76% of the Chinese population supports the policy. The policy is enforced at the provincial level through fines that are imposed based on the income of the family and other factors. Population and Family Planning Commissions exist at every level of government to raise awareness about the issue and carry out registration and inspection work. There are still many citizens that continue to have more than one child regardless of the anti-natal policy. In 2008, China's National Population and Family Planning Commission said that the policy will remain in place for at least another decade. In 2010, it was announced that the majority of the citizens first subject to the policy are no longer of reproductive age and it has been speculated that many citizens simply disregard or violate the policy in more recent years. The deputy director of the Commission stated that the policy would remain unaltered until at least 2015. In March 2011, the Chinese government reviewed the policy and expressed considerations to allow for couples to have a second child. The Chinese government estimates that it had three to four hundred million fewer people in 2008 with the one-child policy, than it would have had otherwise. Chinese authorities consider that this anti-natal policyw as a great success in helping to implement China's current economic growth. The population reduction has reduced the severity of problems that come with overpopulation. With the one-child policy in place, China still has one million more births than deaths every five weeks. Pro-natalist policy measures enacted by the Soviet government in the 1980s led to an increase in fertility rates in the mid-1980s, owing largely to a rise in the number of second births. In 2007, the government instated a reward of 250,000 rubles for having a second child. President Vladmir Putin dismissed the environmental risk of overpopulation in May 2006 when he said that pro-natal policies are necessary to make Russia's population crisis better. He referred to Russia's population crisis as Russia's most serious problem. Russia boasts profits from natural resources, but it only has one-third of the per capita income of developed nations. The detrimental health status and low-life expectancy contributes to Russia's long-term economic risks: reductions in savings rates, fewer education investments, less productive workers, and the reluctance of foreign investment. Russia is in need of a population growth.The nation's economy has suffered through twenty years of decreasing human capital, and yielded a seven percent decline in 2009's first quarter. Demographic projections estimate that Russia's shrinking labor force will reduce innovative efforts and result in economic and social deterioration. Younger generations are already beginning to bare responsibilities for the multiplicity of unemployed, older generations. In May 2008, The Center for Strategic & International Studies (CSIS) reported that Russia suffers from "population implosion" due to low birthrates and deteriorating life expectancy and health. CSIS predicts that the elderly population may double by 2050, and the median age will rise from 37 to 49. Demographers project that Russia's population will resemble an upside down pyramid by 2050, with the majority of citizens at the top in the elderly bracket, and fewer, migrating younger generations toward the bottom. Russians are fearful about the additional child payment program. The total costs of child rearing, such as baby equipment, health services, social activities, and education, exceed the government's financial assistance. Conservationists are also skeptical about the benefits of paying families to have more children. Russia has recently tried alternative, less globally threatening means for increasing its labor force. On March 22, 2009, President Vladmir Putin began a repatriation program that gives cash, social benefits, passports, and employment opportunities to former natural born citizens, upon their return to Russia. The number of newborns in the Russian Federation in 2009 was projected to be 200,000 fewer than in 2008. It was reported in 2009 that women blaimed the pro-natal campaign in Russia for their abortions. When the women got pregnant in response to the government telling them that they needed to have babies, many of them found themselves or their partners out of work and, as a result, had to get an abortion. The current population is 138,739,892 people. It has a population growth rate of -0.47%. Thanks for watching!Full transcript

When did you stop thinking you were beautiful?
As part of its Real Beauty Sketches campaign, Dove releases its newest commercial titled Camera Shy. It portrays young women avoiding the camera like the plague, but rewind a decade or so back, we find the same girls confident and fearless in front of cameras. There is always a tremendous pressure to be beautiful all the time, especially as we grow older. This false belief about 'not being beautiful' needs to stop. A flat belly, smaller waist, bigger breasts, and long legs are really not worth the stress!
The video lasts only a minute, but already has over a 15 million views, watch here!
Maya is currently a fun-sized sophomore in high school, who loves martial arts, church, food, writing, music, and tons of other stuff. She is president of Youth Education Society at her high school, and hopes to publish a novel by her junior year.

We are headed into week four of the NFL Fantasy Football season. Bye weeks and injuries are leaving fantasy owners with rosters that have holes to be filled. Today we will take a look at some of the players that may be sitting there on your waiver wire that you may want to take a look at to either start this week or stash for the upcoming weeks.
Running Back:
BenJarvus Green-Ellis, Patriots: Normally we just stay away from the New England backfield as it it is just a jumbled mess of carries within a group of RBs. Now with the trade of Maroney and injuries stacking up in the Pats Running Back roster, Green-Ellis is making some separation from the pack.
Peyton Hillis, Browns: For now it looks like Hillis is the man moving forward and Jermome Harrison will have a reduced role. It's hard to ignore a back putting up 180 total yards on the Ravens.
Ryan Torain, Redskins: It looks like Keiland Williams has been bumped to the #3 RB spot in Washington by Ryan Torain. Torain is the backup to Portis and will see more time. If he cans stay healthy he may be a sweet pickup to have stashed if Portis goes down or has his role reduced.
Ken Darby, Rams: Steven Jackson is a warrior and will likely make it back on the field in week four despite his groin injury. A long shot wire pickup this week would be Ken Darby. If Jackson doesn't go, Darby will get a bulk of the carries. What's the long shot? Well…Steven Jackson makes more happen for the Rams running game than his supporting cast so it's not just a plug and play jackpot like the Broncos were back in the day.
Wide Receiver:
Lance Moore, Saints: Well Lance is back. It was no secret that he was a possible breakout Waiver Wire pick up last week as everyone knew that he was going to take some of those touches that belonged to Reggie Bush. What wasn't expected was Moore taking those touches and instantly blowing up, especially if your league rewards returns. If he is still on your wire you have to grab him if you have a spot as even if Bush comes back they will keep him involved as a hot hand if he continues.
Later int he week we will look at Fantasy Football Injuries That Matter. Follow us on Facebook or Twitter for instant updates.

- Democrats to sue Trump over conflicts of interest – "Dozens of House and Senate Democrats plan to sue President Donald Trump in the coming weeks, claiming he is breaking the law by refusing to relinquish ownership of his sprawling real-estate empire while it continues to profit from business with foreign governments." It was just reported that Saudi Arabia paid the Trump Hotel $270k. That's a heck of a hotel bill.
- House Of Representatives Unanimously Votes To Condemn Turkish Security Attack On D.C. Protesters – "Without a single dissenting vote, the House of Representatives voted last night to condemn Turkish security forces' attack on protesters in D.C. last month." Talk about bipartisan. Last month a group of protesters were attached by Turkish security forces outside of the Turkish embassy in D.C. and it was caught on video.
- Donald Trump's presidency is an American crisis – "At the center of all this, Trump is running a chaotic and understaffed government. He has named nominees for only 80 of the 558 key appointments he needs to fill, and only 40 of them have cleared Senate confirmation. Last night brought news that Attorney General Jeff Sessions was considering resigning, and last week brought news that Trump's communications director had been fired. Trump is tweeting out criticisms of his own Justice Department, investigators are digging into first son-in-law Jared Kushner's contacts with Russia, and chief eldest child Ivanka Trump has wrested the cover of US Weekly for a profile focusing on her disagreements with her father. Amid all this, Trump's approval rating is down to a miserable 38 percent."
- Comey Forces Trump Defenders Into Extreme and Absurd Spin – "[Republicans] reactions are revealing a profound dishonesty that far exceeds the norms of usual political spin, and are demonstrating that the Trumpified quarters of the GOP and the conservative movement are intellectually bankrupt and devoid of principle."
- Today's Russia hearing — without many answers — was still bad for Trump – "Top intelligence and law enforcement officials refused to confirm reports that President Donald Trump had tried to shut down an ongoing FBI probe into former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn's ties to Russia." But then again, they refused to answer anything.
- What Monkeys Can Teach Us About Fairness – "The data on inequality is, of course, staggering. The top 1 percent in America owns more than the bottom 90 percent. The annual Wall Street bonus pool alone is more than the annual year-round earnings of all Americans working full time at the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour, according to the Institute for Policy Studies. And what's becoming clearer is the fraying of the social fabric that results."

- Wedding: September 2014 - Lodge
I feel like my head is spinning right now. I feel like I have so much to do but really I don't, not until the few weeks before the wedding anyway. My mom and I will be starting putting centerpieces together on the weekends since she is 45 minutes from me. I do have to do invitations this weekend, get them printed off and put together to be sent out.
I just can't believe how quickly the months are flying by. It seems like yesterday we were still a year out from our wedding date. Now we're 100 days till the wedding…holy crap I might hyperventilate.

The Wendy's client & team must be convinced that everyone mutes at the Super Bowl commercials, as they spelled out their entire pitch in supers text on the screen. I guess that's a tactic.
All we have here is a hummable tune called "I like beer", sung by men in bars, people in marathons, men in gyms, groups of golfers.
Steven Tyler gets into a Kia Stinger on a racetrack and does something unexpected, and something we all want to do sometimes. He turns back time.
Diversity is the key word in this spot, not individuality even though that is what the voice over is trying to express.
I'm not sure what to say about this, but the Bud Light fans now have a Bud Knight. Who is he? He's the guy who goes on a beer run, of course. Straight through a battlefield.
Pepsi have given up being the choice for a new generation and now just wants to be the choice of every generation by recycling every Pepsi moment and previous Super bowl ads into one.
Meet Evelyn. She's a high tech very smart robot.
It´s not every day that a meme becomes a Super Bowl commercial.... Hahaha, who am I kidding, superbowl ads have been mining memes for years with different levels of success.
This is the first Super Bowl commercial for Amazon Prime, they're paying a pretty penny to compete with network ads and movie trailers.
Peyton Manning is the vacation quarterback, pep-talking a family through the hurdles of scary rides where "fear is not an option", has his churros stolen via "interception" and everyone freaking o

Why's that? It's a numbers game, says Polytron. The patch fixes multiple issues with the game (including framerating and loading problems, death loops, and more), and the save corruption issue affects less than one percent of players overall. Because sending out another patch to fix the first patch would cost Polytron "tens of thousands of dollars" to get the game re-certified by Microsoft, the patch is coming back, and any players thus affected by the save issue will just have to deal with it.
Polytron points to this as a major drawback with Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade service, in that the company charges exorbitant fees to developers to release even free updates and content. "Had Fez been released on Steam instead of XBLA," posts Polytron, "the game would have been fixed two weeks after release, at no cost to us." Does that mean a Steam version is in progress? "Only a few months left to our XBLA exclusivity!" says the company on Twitter.

This task was "Bent to shape boxes", or "Sveip" as we call it.
Both are Sallow, which is very easy to bend. However, unlike most other woods, it should not be heated to more than 60-70 degrees C when bending.
The second box is meant to become my lunchbox, so it has a snap-on lid.
I do not like the method with a bending form with a hole in the middle, meant to work with clamps, so I made my own bending form with screw-on clamps. This means one man can easily mount, adjust and bend the box quickly, unlike the clamp model that almost always requires two persons.
Funnily, it seems I reinvented the wheel on this one, since I saw a picture of a 18th century bending form with huge wooden screw clamps that worked exactly like mine.

text: Directed by Daisuke Kobayashi, this is the epic 3-country project shot by Spoon, Tokyo for Dentsu and Toyota. The identical sequence was shot in Tokyo, Sydney and finally with us in Cape Town, with the production team flying between the 3 cities over 5 – 6 months. Two identical hero cars (the classic Toyota Levin from the 1980's) were used between the 3 countries. Every camera angle, every shot was matched in each version. The Spoon and Dentsu teams were great to work with – we loved this project.

Graduation Day – June #2
June graduated to joining the main herd…hence the new brand on her rear and tag in her ear. She grew really well with the extra nutrition the grower and finisher provided. Without it, dogie calves stay little and runty looking since mom isn't around. She will run with the big girls now. Next up….a calf next summer (we hope).
