mamann615 –
This course was excellent! I had read excellent reviews before deciding to begin the course and I was not disappointed. The instructor was extremely supportive and I really enjoyed the time I spent learning. All course feedback was given promptly and in a way that promoted positive learning.
All course materials were well-organized and tailored to teachers. Assignments were scaffolded with plenty of information to feel confident completing assignments. There was also opportunity for reflection and action research within the classroom.
I LOVED the self-paced format of the course. I was able to work at my own pace without the pressure of specific due dates, which is a nice perk for anyone also balancing a teaching job! I definitely learned a lot of Spanish and feel better prepared to interact with students and their families in the future.
Allison Thomae –
I would highly recommend this class for teachers who would like to be more confident speaking Spanish with students and families. I was able to hold a parent teacher conference in Spanish after completing this course. The instructor is helpful and easy to access via phone or email if you have any questions or concerns. I think that the course is well worth the money and with continued practice, you will be able to use Spanish on a daily basis with students and families.
Viki Gardner –
It was very easy to access this course and all components are well organized. From a student's perspective, it is very easy to see where to start, how to navigate the course, how to submit assignments, and so on.
The activities are all well developed with lots of interactive ones for the students, which keeps them engaged throughout the course. Outside websites are included to further enhance the students' learning. The learning objectives are clear, and all the components are aligned well with the objectives and with each other in order to provide the best learning experience possible.
The teacher is readily available to help and answer any questions. She is helpful and always responds in a timely manner.
This is an exciting course for educators, and one that is definitely needed! As a teacher in Texas, I wish I would have had the opportunity to take such a course years ago, when I was teaching face-to-face; I always had several Spanish-speaking students in my class, and I had to depend on them or their siblings to interpret for parents in conferences. It made me feel bad because I wished I could have communicated with them on my own. This class gives teachers the tools needed to more effectively communicate with Spanish-speaking students and parents.
I highly recommend this class–it's a winner!
Terry Parisi –
I recommend this course for anyone interested in learning Spanish on an entry level to be able to communicate with Spanish speaking students. The course had fun activities all focused on teaching and communicating with students and parents. There were written as well as verbal assignments that you sent to the instructor through a voice activated application that comes with the course. The instructor was available both through email and phone and she was very helpful and prompt. I enjoyed this course and think it was well worth my time and money.

Breathing Roof
Ever since the very first train chugged alongside Platform One we've had to find ways of dealing with the heat and smoke they generate. The Victorians had a simple idea - a large high dome above the platforms that would collect all the pollution and disperse it high above the heads of passengers. The new Spencer Street station in Melbourne has taken that idea to create one of the world's most extraordinary spaces. Its huge domes are double skinned and offset, spanning the station's 10hectare site. There are no mechanical fans driving the ventilation of this building - it all relies on physics and engineering.
Narration: Ahh, the golden age of steam. A romantic image, but a poisonous one. Today's trains may not burn coal but they still generate heat and smoke...and it all arrives on Platform One.
Back in the Industrial Revolution they came up with a solution to separate the passengers from the pollution - grand stations with high rooves, arches and domes.
Now this old design is making a comeback. In the heart of Melbourne's CBD, a modern railway station is building on the traditions of the Victorian era.
What was once the completely unremarkable Spencer Street station is now being replaced by a much funkier version of the old railway shed.
The man who designed it went back to the future by transforming an old but effective idea....
Architect Keith Brewis is inspired by the simple physics built into Victorian design, like the Royal Exhibition Building in Carlton Gardens.
Keith Brewis: The Victorian age because of the industrial revolution was able to use very highly structural materials and span high vaults and long ways. So create a very tall space here, large numbers of people are gathering and you're able to ventilate the space but also introduce sufficient daylight and a large quality of daylight into the great enclosure. I think there is a clear parallel between this and Spencer Street Station.
Narration: But Spencer Street has its own challenges. Diesel trains are constant visitors, spewing clouds of poisonous particles and hot gases that have to be removed. The roof spans 10 hectares with two pedestrian concourses at each end. Too massive for a Victorian-style roof with a single arch...
Keith Brewis: All we'd end up doing with an arch would be really just taking the gases along the apex of the arch and then dumping down on top of the concourses. So we've created domes and at the head of the dome is a series of open louvres...
Mark Horstman, reporter: so each of these big waves here is those domes?
Keith Brewis: Each of these waves is a dome. You can see the gaps between the ceilings here and the ceiling panels allow the gases, the hot air to ventilate through them and then above here will be another skin of roof, a roof sheet that goes over the top of it. There's a cavity between the two and the hot air then tracks between this cavity and up to the very high point of the dome, up to the point here where there are louvres and that allows the whole station to ventilate itself.
Narration: The domes are offset - so that air leaving one dome won't be drawn into the next. The prevailing Melbourne wind does the rest. Lifting the roof off the drawing board and covering Melbourne's major railway hub needs a trainload of teamwork and creative energy.
Systems engineer Che Wall was brought in to make sure the building would work without relying on air conditioners. He was recognised as 2004's Environmentalist of the Year because of his passion to get architectural form doing the work that machines would otherwise do.
Ché Wall: We started with the process of looking at the roof form and what that meant to the behaviour of the wind effects , the movement of air and the storage of air and then sort of tuned that to bring some sort of reliability to the systems.
Keith Brewis: They reassured us in the early stages of the project that our thoughts were likely to be basically correct - we didn't actually have the luxury of time during those early stages to prove that the way that we thought the roof would work - would work.
Narration: The worst case scenario: a hot summer's day in Melbourne, no wind, it's peak hour. Suddenly, there's an accident, a train catches fire. Hot toxic smoke billows through the station.
Che Wall uses CFD, or computational flow dynamics, to reassure everybody that the design for natural ventilation will be able to cope...
Ché Wall: The exhaust gases rise to the roof, the same thing happens in a train fire.
One of the nice things about natural ventilation is that a mechanical system generally works at the same speed all the time so you get the same ventilation rate unless you oput in bigger fans..where a natural ventilation system because it's based on real simple physics of temperature difference and buoyancy, the hotter the air, the faster it moves so the system improves its performance and works harder the hotter the gases get .
Narration: It's the job of structural engineers like Rob DiBlasi to turn the computer models and thousands of drawings into cold hard steel.
For that he also needed Professor Bill Melbourne to set up a perfect scale model of Spencer Street station in the wind tunnels at Monash University.
And all its downtown neighbours are there too, in a miniature city blasted by fans. The tunnel's turbulence creates scaled-down versions of the real wind gusts that will blow on the actual roof. The load is measured by pressure sensors that stud the surface of the model.
Bill Melbourne: It's taken up to the design pressure which is the sort of 50 metres a second wind speeds in Melbourne... they're the sort of wind speeds that you only get once in a thousand years in this part of the world...
Rob DiBlasi: We take Bill's work essentially as a design input combine it with gravity and earthquake thermal effects etc. and I guess loads applied by man and produce a design and then we try to make it as efficient as possible.
From an engineering point of view we only get one shot at getting it right, so you know from our point of view it's great to see it go up and prove it all works.
Narration: But there's one more hurdle to overcome. Perhaps the biggest challenge of this project is to build it over a railway station that's still in daily use, and keep the trains running on time.
Every day, 50,000 commuters struggle through what's left of the old station while the new one takes shape around them.
Keith Brewis: If we were creating this in a field say you create the two way arches as a complete shell structure and then jack the whole roof up at once. It would be very straightforward. Because we're in a station we have to create very long lines of stiff structure which we call spine arches which run from the north to the south of the station and then we start to introduce the remainder of the roof after that.
Narration: So you can't pull them back to pop them into place?
Keith Brewis: No. The arches, the spine trusses have to come in in large sections. They're prefabricated as 20 metre by 8 metre sections. They've been floated up the river, up the Yarra and then they're craned in exactly into place. They nestle into the Y shaped columns and they're all locked together and then the roof gets assembled around them.
Narration: What if they don't work? What if they don't fit?
Keith Brewis: They need to fit. They need to fit.
Narration: Come the Commonwealth Games in 2006, the Victorian Government hopes the $700 million project will be ready to unveil to the world as our new Australian icon, the Southern Cross station.
Even the Transport Minister admits it might not be completely finished by then. But from what we can see already, it's clear that engineering masterpieces are worth the wait. And you won't need to hold your breath...

Needle-free injection system is an innovative way to introduce medication into a patient's body. Unlike the conventional needle injection system, needle-free injection do not penetrate through the skin. Needle-free injection system is steadily emerging as an efficient way to administer the medication with better patient compliance. There are various advantages offered by needle-free injection system. This system offers efficiency in administration of medication with better patient compliance especially for children (vaccination), geriatric patients (palliative and other care), and patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes, GI tract disease, and multiple sclerosis who need daily injection administration. Self-medication becomes convenient with needle-free injection due to increased confidence amongst user for self-medication and therefore it offers better treatment adherence and improved quality of life. Needle-free injection eliminates needle phobia, as medication is administered through system such as jet injection system to the skin. Moreover, needle-free injection system allows drug delivery of even viscous drug, which is difficult with conventional needle syringe system. Needle-free injection system also allows efficient delivery of biological drugs, which are unstable due to risk of protein denaturation. This is possible as needle-free injection system maintains biological integrity and it does not have silicon oil or tungsten material in its primary container. It is reusable and delivers drug faster, as compared to conventional needle syringe system due to hair size jet stream through which drug is administered.
Market Dynamics
Needle-free injection system is continuously expanding its market footprint on account of various factors. Increasing incidence of needle associated injuries and needle phobia amongst children and adults is expected to drive growth of needle-free injection system market. According to a study published in Behavioral Neurology, 2014, around 3-4 % of the world population faces needle phobia. This impacts their hospital or clinic visits, as they avoid visiting such facilities due to fear of exposure to needles. Needle phobia also impacts the vaccination amongst children, as most of them perceives injecting vaccine as a painful procedure. According to a study published in the Clinical Journal of Pain in 2015, there were 12 billion vaccination every year worldwide, most of which required injecting drug with a needle syringe system. Increasing demand for vaccines and other biologic products is another factor boosting growth of the needle-free injection system market. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) 2018, globally around 86% of infants are vaccinated against 26 diseases, however, 19.5 million children are unvaccinated leading to death of 2-3 million children every year. Chronic disease such as diabetes often needs daily dose of insulin, which has to be administered through pain needles. This may lead to lack of adherence to treatment due to lack of confidence to self-inject insulin. Increasing research on biologics and biosimilar is another factor expected to fuel growth of the market. Biologicals are increasingly launched and prescribed to treat disease such as GI tract disease (ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease), central nervous system associated disease (multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer's disease), and cancer. Other factors such as increasing incidence of communicable diseases caused due to conventional needle, increasing geriatric population worldwide who need palliative care, and growing awareness about safe injection practices are also expected to drive growth of needle-free injection system market.
However, per unit cost of needle-free injection may restrain the market growth. As this system is relatively new and do not have wider penetration yet, its use is still very limited. Moreover, developing economies where vaccine need is increasing with growing population would find it difficult to access this product.
Regional Insights
On the basis of geography, the global needle-free injection system market is segmented into North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, and Africa. North America is a dominant region in the global needle-free injection system market. This is due to high prevalence of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, 2018, cancer is the second leading cause of death after cardio vascular disease in the U.S. Furthermore, around 1.7 million new cancer cases were reported by 2017 in this region. Rising number of biologic drug approval in the U.S. is another factor driving growth of needle-free injection system market. For instance, according to the data published by the U.S. FDA (United States Food and Drug Administration) in the year 2017, more than 20 biologic formulation received FDA approval. Asia Pacific is witnessing high growth in the needle-free injection system market, as vaccine need is highest in this region. Moreover, this region has high prevalence of lifestyle disease such as diabetes. According to the 2017 Diabetes Atlas report, there were over 240 million diabetes patients in this region.
Competitive Landscape
Some of the key players operating in the market include Antares Pharma, Inc., Endo International plc, Portal Instruments, Inc., Zogenix, PharmaJet, Bioject Medical Technologies Inc., Medical International Technology, Inc., PenJet Corporation, INJEX Pharma AG, National Medical Products Inc., Valeritas, Inc., European Pharma Group, and Crossject SA.
Collaborations amongst companies to develop the needle-free injection system would also boost growth of needle-free injection system market. For instance, in November 2017, Takeda Pharmaceutical and Portal Instruments entered into collaboration agreement to develop the needle-free drug delivery device with the Takeda Pharmaceuticals biologic medicines for hepatitis, Crohn's disease etc.

I note, once again, another American President has declared a new war on drugs (opioids) promising once and for all elimination of the problem. I, for one, having spent all those years in the ER medical services shall retain my skepticism unless and until I am proven wrong. I am convinced we are not only starting with the wrong focus but are headed in an entirely incorrect direction.
Substance abuse is defined as the improper use of any substance to the extent that it causes physical, mental or emotional damage either temporary or permanent and sometimes from a single ingestion. Abused substances can be legal or illegal beginning with commonly available and socially acceptable alcohol and over the counter medications, household chemicals and prescription drugs. With children, there are two initiators. The first is the inherent curiosity and sense of adventure in combination with the "challenge" from a more socially advanced peer. In the primary stage of misuse there is an initial positive gain from the emotional excitement of the risk in combination with the altered mental status from the chemical itself. It starts with the BORED fifth grader trying inhalants with friends for the group high or the stressed teen borrowing mom's amphetamine for a pre exam all nighter cram session.
Your children do not walk in to the local pharmacy for scripts nor can they access the beer and liquor outlets so you have to ask what is their source? The holy grail for children is the in home bathroom medicine cabinet, possibly the unlocked liquor closet in the family room in almost 100 percent of scenarios although there is a new issue trending with more and more medications becoming available by on-line ordering.
While illicit substance use has decreased slightly over the last decade, prescription drug deaths in teens has doubled every five years since the millennium. Combining medications with alcohol for enhanced response is common practice in high school populations. For the medical community in the ER and the follow on psychological services several glaring facts are staring us down.
50 percent of teens believe prescription medications are safer
80 percent of illicit use is incorrectly identified by the user
50 percent of teens believe taking an over the counter (OTC) cough meds is not risky
This is NOT a back alley problem. It's in YOUR HOME
The 2017 teen is facing a drug landscape that did not exist for previous generations . I've painted a deliberately disturbing picture where we are. This is an obviously complex subject and cannot be addressed in a single column but there are clues to look for to determine if there may be a problem in your home. Is your child?…
- Withdrawn, moody, hostile, overreacting to criticism
- Grades and school attendance sliding
- Change in eating and sleeping patterns
- Lies, steals and needs money for vague reasons
- Persistent eye and nasal symptoms
Do you see any or all of the above in your child? The first step in any scenario is awareness that there is a problem. Solutions can then follow.

BMW gives 2-Series Active Tourer minor updates
BMW sells a frumpy, front-wheel-drive minivan known as the 2-Series Active Tourer in some markets. (There's also a 7-seat version known as the 2-Series Gran Tourer.)
The vehicle made its debut in 2014 and was pegged for sale in the United States, though BMW's local division eventually came to the realization it would probably have done more harm to the brand than good, thus it never ended up here.
The 2-Series Active Tourer is now at the midway point in its life cycle, and in BMW tradition the vehicle has been updated.
The visual tweaks are minor and consist of a new design for the daytime running lights plus revised bumpers at both ends. The most significant change on the outside is a slightly larger grille.
Inside, there's a new design for the gear lever and a wider selection of colors and materials. BMW is also offering a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission on some models as an alternative to the standard 8-speed automatic. The automaker says the seats have also been made comfier thanks to widened cushions and new upholstery.
The 2-Series Active Tourer has been a surprising success for BMW. The automaker has managed to sell more than 380,000 examples of both the 5-seat Active Tourer and 7-seat Gran Tourer since the model was launched. The biggest market has been Germany followed by China. Roughly 70 percent of buyers have been new to the brand.
The world debut for the updated 2-Series Active Tourer should take place in early March at the 2018 Geneva auto show. While we won't see the car here, there's a good chance a new 2-Series Gran Coupe makes it to the U.S. A more hardcore version of the M2 coupe is also expected here soon.

text: The train whistle in the distance is my word for loneliness, a whisper in the wilderness, a ghost that never rests. But here I am, in this bed alone, so who am I to judge? As if I could ever sound that sad. As if I could articulate that much. On the good days I remember the velocity of her smile. That's something of a disadvantage, this deep in denial. I pull back on the emotional brakes, but I'm broken-down and broke. I'm not so lonesome I could cry, but I suppose that I can hope. Continue reading

There is Britain before 1965 and Britain after 1965 - and they are not the same thing.
1965 was the year Britain democratised education, it was the year pop culture began to be taken as seriously as high art, the time when comedians and television shows imported the methods of modernism into their work.
It was when communications across the Atlantic became instantaneous, the year when, for the first time in a century, British artists took American gallery-goers by storm. In 1965 the Beatles proved that rock and roll could be art, it was when we went car crazy, and craziness was held to be the only sane reaction to an insane society.
It was the year feminism went mainstream, the year, did she but know it, that the Thatcher revolution began, the year taboos were talked up - and trashed. It was when racial discrimination was outlawed and the death penalty abolished; it marked the appointment of Roy Jenkins as Home Secretary, who became chief architect in legislating homosexuality, divorce, abortion and censorship.
It was the moment that our culture, reeling from what are still the most shocking killings of the century, realised it was a less innocent, less spiritual place than it had been kidding itself. It was the year of consumerist relativism that gave us the country we live in today and the year the idea of a home full of cultural artefacts - books, records, magazines - was born.
It was the year when everything changed - and the year that everyone knew it.

Summary: Mallory needs a place to sit, Ryan's got the room.
Date It Happened: May 28, 2007
Don't Be a Joiner
Common Grounds
It's just afternoon in Manhattan, and the lunch crowd is in full swing at Common Grounds. Businessmen and students alike are getting a coffee and café sandwich fix at the same time. And sitting by himself at a table, Ryan is working on his own sandwich and iced coffee as he reads a stack of forms stamped with the NYU logo.
A pretty young blonde stands with a coffee in one hand and two sandwiches balanced in the other, looking rather lost as she discovers, to her dismay, that there are no empty tables. After looking as though she might give up hope, she approaches Ryan's table. "Excuse me! Hi. I was, ah, wondering… Would you mind if I sat down here with you? There's no place else to sit, and…" A blush creeps into her cheeks.
Ryan smiles at the girl, "Yeah, sure. Kinda crowded, isn't it?" He scoots over to make room for her.
"A bit," the girl admits. After setting her things, and herself, down, she extends a hand to the boy. "I'm Mallory."
Ryan shakes the offered hand. "Ryan. Nice to meet you." He shuffles his papers to set them aside for later. "You work around here? I think it's a kind of local crowd here."
"Work? Naw." Mallory shakes her head. "I study here, most of the time. I like the atmosphere! And you must not be from around here, then." She plunks a finger down on Ryan's paperwork. "Transferring?"
Ryan chuckles. "Yeah. It's not formal, but it's as good as a done deal. So, I'm filling out the aplications and medical info and all that crap. What's your major?"
"Tch. High school?" Duh. Mallory grins and unwraps her first sandwich. "I'm not ready for college yet. M'only sixteen."
Ryan rubs his forehead and smiles sheepishly. "OH, man….sorry about that. I thought you were older…" He shakes his head in amusement. "I guess the paperwork's starting to get to me."
"I'll take it as a compliment." Mallory giggles cutely and takes a small bite of her lunch. "So, what are /you/ majoring in?"
Ryan cracks his neck a bit, feeling a little uncomfortable now that he knows the girl's real age. "Ummm…I'm transfering into pre-med. Hopefully I'll have a summer internship to go along with it."
"Ooh. Gross anatomy, ho!" If the mention of the class used to weed out med students bothers Mallory, she sure doesn't show it. She's still got a healthy appetite for her chicken salad.
Ryan chuckles. "Yup. Become a doctor and play with dead people and body parts…." He smiles a bit and takes a drink of his coffee. "ANyways, I'm more into the genetics side of medicine."
"Genetics, huh?" That causes the girl's brows to hike upward. "What's got you interested in /that/?"
Ryan coughs a bit at the question. "Hmm? Oh, it just sort of…grabbed my attention. It's kinda hard explaining it…" He pushes the question aside for the moment and focuses on eating his turkey sandwich.
"Try?" Mallory gives Ryan her best sweet smile. She's genuinely interested, it would seem.
Ryan thinks for a bit, chewing his sandwich. "Well….I was an okay high school student. I got by okay on my basic smarts, but I really didn't have an idea what i wanted to do for a living. I went to college pretty much becasue that's what my dad expected of me. So, I bummed around Stanford for a couple years, trying to find what I wanted to do. And what would be acceptable. And then this fall, out of the blue, genetics just clicked with me when I took the class."
"That's cool," Mallory utters around a mouthful of food, nodding appreciatively. "I'm really into evolutionary theory. But shh! Don't tell anyone. I'm too blonde to be smart."
Ryan chuckles. "Yeah, I know the feeling. I was too jock to be smart, and I ended up wasting a lot of time and money trying to figure out who I am. All the popularity stuff in high school: the cliques, the dances…none of it really matters in the long run, you know?"
Mallory rolls her eyes. "Says you. I can ignore all that stuff, sure, but my life will be miserable if I do. If you can't beat them, join them."
Ryan smiles a bit. "Yeah, but just make sure you don't lose who you are by just being a joiner. You shouldn't be afraid to just be who you are and not worry about what others think. If they've got a problem, well, that's their problem, not yours."
"I know," Mallory chimes cheerfully. "You don't need to worry about me!" She pops the last of her first sandwich in her mouth and gathers up the second. "I should get going. It was nice talking to you! Thanks for letting me share your table!" The enthusiastic blonde hops to her feet and starts for the exit, lunch in tow.
Ryan nods and smiles. "Sure…see you around."

I had to turn around for my debit card. I didn't think I would get lucky twice with being able to use Apple Pay.
The wind was annoying and chilly. Two days ago I was in bike shorts and t-shirt and sweating. Today I am in bike tights and long sleeved base and sweatshirt. My blood is Florida thin.
There are sidewalks Along SR56 but they are narrow and have barriers which make it impossible to pass anyone else. I crossed SR56 then crossed back to RaceTrac.
There are so many choices inside. There is a variety of iced teas, slushies, sodas, frozen yogurt and hotdogs. There was no hot foods nor hot drinks because they were upgrading. I got unsweetened ice tea. It was good. Twelve ounce iced tea was $1.17.
I went south to CLR and then had the wind against me the whole time. Part of CLR has no bike lane nor any shoulder but that portion was short.

Thursday Conversation - The A - Z Challenge Go from negative to positive, alphabetically. And Shift
P is for PESSIMIST. A pessimist's perception of life is negative - seeing the impossibilities and difficulties. The pessimist complains about the noise when opportunity knocks. Shift out being pessimistic to someone who is optimistic. Stay in touch with reality, but look at the situation from a different angle; see the glass as half full!
To make the shift, easy and fun, here's a collection of ideas to dip into! Come to any session and be inspired.

Last week, I revealed the structure behind our latest podcast: a 5-part audio series that takes listeners behind the scenes our first Artist Commissioning Program panel. If you missed it, check out that blog.
In short, this new podcast series alternate between excerpts from live panel sessions and interviews from our art producers, who were responsible for reviewing and selecting the ultimate artist awardees.
The latest podcast, How do you tell an untold story? reveals exclusive, behind-the-scenes excerpts of our ACP panels.
In the last blog, I promised to share my uncensored opinion about this approach, so here it goes:
I do like this format. I think it's interesting and digestible and it will help pull behind the curtain of what takes place in a grant panel. But, listening to the audio itself, so much of the content is specific to the individual applications. Is something lost by taking out the application-specific comments? It's more universal, sure, and it does a good job of documenting the program in an interesting way. But for the artists that applied, would it be better if:
We just took the audio, spliced it into individual segments (97 applicants, 97 .mp3 files), and sent all the artists their individual comments, recorded live from the panel? That way, you get immediate, unadulterated feedback specific to you and your application.
The problem with this is pretty obvious. When I was in art school, I watched many a classmate cry in critique, devastated from blunt feedback. It became such an issue that our weekly sessions became to resemble a reality TV show. Even when artists called me this year to listen to me relay the panelists' comments, I could hear some of their voices breaking, their frustration surging.
This is not to say that artists are fragile beings incapable of hearing feedback—quite the opposite. I think it takes an incredible amount of resilience and self-efficacy to make things without the any reasonable promise of security, safety, or recognition. But it's not hard to imagine how something like this could go wrong. Even if the artists are able to listen to strangers evaluate their work silently and seemingly objectively, would panelists—some of whom have never done this before—realistically be able to talk about the work with this type of audience?
Apparently, it's been done before. A few weeks ago, our Executive Director, Hoong Yee Krakauer, came back from one of her many arts trips all excited. She ushered me into her office:
Did you know that Indiana Arts Council conducts their panel live in front of anyone who wants to watch? The artists can come in and watch their applications be scored! People just come and go as they wish.
Really?, I asked, almost shocked. I pictured an indifferent cast of characters, lined up in folding chairs feet from the panel session, as bored and unaffected as if they were at the DMV.
Yes, and it works; it's fine. I think that's where we should go eventually.

However, out of the thousands of packages we send weekly, we average less than 1 tenth of 1 percent of it ever being returned.
We would be happy to help facilitate this for you. We can get prices down to $60/kg including shipping from our US warehouse if you get 50 kgs or more together. This includes our money back guarantee!
If you want us to facilitate a direct shipment from Indonesia we will guarantee delivery (but not how long it will take as we have no control over that portion) and no satisfaction guarantee since we will not have it lab tested prior to you receiving it. However, that price would be $40/kg with a 50kg minimum combined order.
If you want us to parse it out and distribute to each of you individually there would be a $10 surcharge per shipment for packing and labor. Avoid this by having it all shipped to one person who then distributes it themselves to the remaining club members.

It was when I entered college that I began to realize the effects the internet and technology had had on my life. I was still just as shy as I was at the age of 13. I couldn't connect easily with other people and felt safer at my computer chair. My heart became jealous all of the time of my friends and how they always seemed to talk to each other through texting and facebook but never to me. My friends would text about someone in the same room as them! Even when I was chatting with my friends, they would text while I was talking and they wouldn't hear me. They would text while we watched TV and then turn to me asking what just happened. When I confronted them, they became defensive. I also found that I couldn't even get through a chapter of a book because my phone was vibrating every second and I felt the need to answer every time because if I didn't, my friends would get mad that I had a life separate from them. It made me so frustrated all of the time. Typing about it now just brings bad memories that are just so so bad that it makes my heart ache. I hated who I was becoming. I was always...angry.
Another thing that seemed different about me was that I was never reading or writing. I mean, sure I still read and wrote but not as much as I seemed to in high school. In high school, I finished writing a novel that was 402 pages long. In college, I had barely written 50 pages. Reading was easier because it didn't require the same amount of effort as writing but I was still on my computer and the internet way more than I was reading. I found that I had a hard time writing if I wasn't using a computer. I found it hard to stay focused in my daily life. I found it hard to juggle my internet life, my social life, my literary life, my student life, and my spiritual life. I knew technology was an addiction but I continued to do it anyway and so did everyone else. When I entered my junior year, I finally realized that this needed to stop. I didn't want to buy an ipad and I didn't want a smart phone. I didn't want to keep depending on computers. I became aware how my brain was changing but didn't know how to explain this to my friends and family. I added this book to my Amazon Wishlist and was so excited to see that it was required for a class in Fall 2012.
The Shallows is a detailed look at how technology has altered our brains. While the book is specific to the technologies today such as the internet and computers and smart phones and e-readers, it greatly touches upon technology itself and talks about earlier technologies such as the clock and the printing press. Technology has been changing for years and our brains have changed along with it. For example, before the printing press people were used to oral storytelling. When the printing press arrived, books became the new medium for storytelling and while oral storytelling didn't stop, it wasn't as popular as it once was. Socrates, the believed founder of Western culture, claimed that writing would destroy the rich oral culture and Carr writes, "Socrates argues that a dependence on the technology of the alphabet will alter a person's mind, and not for the better. By substituting outer symbols for inner memories, writing threatens to make us shallower thinkers, he says, preventing us from achieving the intellectual depth that leads to wisdom and true happiness." I have to disagree with this statement because I believe writing and reading makes me think a lot more and helps exercise my mind. If Socrates were speaking of technology today then I would probably agree. While technology can bring a lot of benefits, we humans often use it to our demise. As J.K. Rowling says in The Tales of Beedle the Bard, "Humans have a knack of choosing precisely those things that are worst for them."
Carr also discusses the brain a lot in this book almost to the point where I wondered what it had to do with the book's topic. He talks about studies done on the brain and relates these studies to technology and today's culture. One thing I felt when I became annoyed with technology was that I was always being shouted at. The radio shouted loud and obnoxious music with no deeper meaning and the TV shouted at me to be a certain way and act a certain way and the internet shouted at me about politics and understanding every single culture on the planet and my brain felt like it would explode! Carr writes, "By combining many different kinds of information on a single screen, the multimedia Net further fragments content and disrupts our concentration. A single Web page may contain a few chunks of text, a video or audio stream, a set of navigational tools, various advertisements, and several small software applications, or "widgets," running in their own windows. We all know how distracting this cacophony of stimuli can be. We joke about it all the time. A new e-mail message announces its arrival as we're glancing over the latest headlines at a newspaper's site. A few seconds later, our RSS reader tells us that one of our favorite bloggers has uploaded a new post. A moment after that, our mobile phone plays the ringtone that signals an incoming text message. Simultaneously, a Facebook or Twitter alert blinks on-screen. In addition to everything flowing through the network, we also have immediate access to all the other software programs running on our computers – they, too, compete for a piece of our mind. Whenever we turn on our computer, we are plunged into an 'ecosystem of interruption technologies,' as the blogger and science fiction writer Cory Doctorow terms it." The goal of technology today seems to be to distract us human beings! How do they expect any of us to get work done? Technology demands of us our full attention and we, with our now shallows brains, commit to this as if this is the way the world works. The reason I first began questioning technology was for the fact that my friend once got mad at me for not texting her back in an ideal time. I asked her, how did we communicate before texting? How did people communicate before phones existed? We should be grateful that we have them, not abuse the privilege! Technology demands my attention so I can't give my attention to anything else. No wonder I'm juggling all of my separate lives!

America's Distaste for Mommy's Milk
By Harrison S. Himmel
Guest contributor, 4-month-old
I don't know a lot about a lot. I'm only four months old, after all. My understanding of the world revolves around one thing: milk. I love milk. I love my mommy's milk. Really, like there's no form of measurement grand enough to represent how much I absolutely love my mommy's milk. It is my breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack. I love it so much that I often drink too much of it, which makes me vomit. And when I do, I always vomit on myself so that none of that sweet, sweet goodness goes to waste. Because my mommy's milk is so good that it not only fills my tummy with vitamins and protein, but it also helps keep my skin healthy. Incredible, right?
Yeah, my mom's boobs are awesome.
And apparently, my mommy isn't the only mommy with boobs that churn out delicious, life-giving milk. And that's a problem for the United States.
During the World Health Assembly in Geneva this past May, delegates to the World Health Organization were all set to move forward on a resolution that would encourage breastfeeding and limit inaccurate or misleading marketing of baby formula. Everyone expected the resolution to pass with ease, and it should have, since there are decades of research showing the multitude of benefits of breastfeeding. And not just for babies like me, but for mommies, too. And there are even benefits that adults enjoy if they were chugging boobie milk as babies. Wow! Right?
But the delegation from the United States doesn't like boobie milk because boobie milk is free and corporations haven't found a way to monetize boobie milk yet, so the U.S. delegation began throwing its weight around in an effort to water down the resolution, seeking to remove language that called on policy makers to restrict the promotion of food products that many experts say can have "deleterious effects on young children."
I don't know what deleterious means — because I'm only four months old — but it doesn't sound good.
This move by the U.S., led by the Department of Health & Human Services, shocked the other delegates. Not only because protecting people from harmful foods and misleading marketing ploys seems like a no-brainer — even to me, and my brain is still like 40 percent mush (I'm guessing. I don't know math yet) — but because of the way it used threats of trade measures and removing military aid from smaller, poorer countries if they sponsored or supported the resolution as it was originally written.
Bullying is nothing new to America. My daddy has been reading me Howard Zinn's The People's History of the United States each night at bedtime, so I know that brute force, threats and bullish tactics are the American Way. Still, this crusade against boobie milk is exceptionally grotesque. It's pure greed in favor of the $70 billion baby food industry — the formula makers.
Formula, in theory isn't a terrible thing. Formula as a supplement is OK. Formula as the exclusive baby food is problematic. And the way that formula manufacturers push their expensive, less beneficial product on the poor is most certainly problematic. Before I was even born, my mommy started getting direct mail pieces from formula companies promoting the not-all-that-accurate claims of healthful benefits. They even offer coupons in these things. It's their way of making a living, sure, but there's something nefarious about any company trying to get new, tired, stressed mommies to spend money on a product when they get the superior product free. How did she get on the mailing list? The baby registry, probably. Maybe that's why Daddy thinks baby showers are so stupid. The thing is, the resolution wasn't looking to dismantle the baby food industry — most of which operates out of the U.S. like Chicago's Abbott Laboratories, which spent $790,000 lobbying in 2017 — it was merely looking to maintain truth in advertising, promote the benefits of breastfeeding and provide access to boobie milk throughout the world.
While all women can produce milk from their boobies, many women cannot produce enough boobie milk to keep their babies healthy. The resolution in action could even help get actual boobie milk from mommies like mine, who have it leaking out all over the floor, couch, and chairs, to mommies who don't have it leaking out at all. Getting boobie milk to these mommies and babies would be a really good thing for everybody. A 2016 study found that universal breastfeeding would prevent more than 800,000 child deaths a year and create $300 billion in savings from reduced healthcare costs and improved economic outcomes.
America's attempt to downplay the global health and financial benefits of boobie milk is further undeniable proof that America doesn't care about its children or its mothers. Its only interest is in making its rich corporations richer while snuffing out its own future. Because if babies grow up to be sick and poor adults, they won't be able to buy Abbott's baby formula.
The good thing is that America failed to dilute the importance of boobie milk and ensure more people remain unhealthy and poor because Russia — Russia — stepped up to sponsor the resolution. A Russian delegate said they introduced the resolution out of principle. "We're not trying to be a hero here, but we feel that it is wrong when a big country tries to push around some very small countries, especially on an issue that is really important for the rest of the world." America didn't threaten Russia. Because Russia is a big guy. And America only picks on the little guy. Little guys like Ecuador and other poor nations in Latin America and Africa.
And little guys like me. Babies.
I don't know what the U.S. government has against children and families. I tried asking my daddy about it but I can't speak yet, only coo and squeal, which only made Daddy want to kiss my cheeks — I think my daddy might be an idiot — but I do think this news upsets him, too.
After putting me putting me down for the night the other evening, I heard him say to Mommy, "Can you believe the balls on this country? Christ, I need a drink." And then Mommy said, "Please, David, don't drink so much." A few hours later, Daddy snuck into my room thinking I was asleep and whispered to me, "I'm sorry we made such a mess of this place for you, boychick. I hope you can make it better." Then he kissed me on my forehead and left, and my room reeked of alcohol.
And I wonder, with my little bitty mush baby brain, if Daddy would feel better if he drank more of Mommy's boobie milk. I know he likes her boobies because he's always staring at them. And mommy's milk is really, really good for you even if America wants us to think otherwise.

Achieve a More Balanced Smile with Gum Contouring
A beautiful, even smile features a pleasing ratio of teeth and gum tissue. An uneven gum line or too much gum tissue can disrupt this balance, creating a "gummy smile" that detracts from your overall appearance. Gum contouring is a simple cosmetic treatment designed to address these concerns. Tijuana Bariatrics coordinates with Dr. Julio Serecero to offer comprehensive dental services in Tijuana, Mexico. The team can help plan a gum contouring treatment, focusing on your needs to provide quality service at an affordable price.
Are You a Candidate for Gum Contouring?
Whether gum reshaping treatment is right for you will be determined during a private consultation with your dentist. You could be a candidate for gum contouring if:
- Your teeth appear disproportionately short or small due to excess gum tissue
- Your smile can be described as "gummy"
- You have an uneven or jagged gum line
In addition to these aesthetic concerns, patients should also be free of decay and periodontal disease to qualify for gum contouring. Dr. Serecero can provide treatment for any conditions which need to be addressed before you proceed with cosmetic dentistry procedures.
The Gum Reshaping Procedure
To begin treatment, your gums will be numbed with a local anesthetic. Once you are made comfortable, Dr. Serecero will work carefully to remove very minimal amounts of gum tissue. Depending on your goals, he will create a more even gum line or simply improve the proportions of your smile.
Gum contouring is a simple cosmetic treatment that removes excess gum tissue and sculpts the gum line to create an attractive smile.
After sculpting the gumline, your dentist will use sutures to close the incisions. Though the dentist will use a conservative approach during the contouring treatment, the results can have a significant impact and transform your smile. The procedure can achieve stunning effects on its own or easily be combined other cosmetic treatments, such as porcelain veneers, for a total smile makeover.
Recovery from Gum Contouring
After your gum contouring treatment, you may experience some sensitivity, swelling, or bleeding but these side effects should subside within a few days. Your doctor will provide detailed at-home care instructions to expedite the recovery process. As a precaution, patients should try to eat softer foods such as shakes, soups, and pudding in the days following the procedure. Spicy foods and foods which contain seeds, such as popcorn, should be avoided. Patients should continue brushing and flossing their teeth gently so as not to disturb the treatment area.
Why Choose Tijuana Bariatrics for Your Dental Care
Many patients choose to travel to Mexico for their health care needs as medical treatment in the United States can become prohibitively expensive. Tijuana Bariatrics not only coordinates care for bariatric and plastic surgery patients but all types of dental treatments as well. Located just south of San Diego, patients can receive care in a safe and affluent part of Tijuana. Patients can expect treatment that is held to the same health and safety standards as clinics in the U.S., all at a reasonable cost.
Schedule a Consultation
If you would like to learn more about gum contouring and how it can transform your smile, please contact Tijuana Bariatrics online or by phone at (877) 759-0739. A member of our team can schedule your consultation and discuss how we can meet your needs.
