11 Wild Statistics About Turning 30
written by Sam Greenspan
Today's my 30th birthday.
A photo from my 30th birthday party on Saturday.
When I was visiting my parents in Cleveland a few weeks ago, my mom gave me this book she found at a used book store. It's called
"Book of Ages: 30"
... and, basically, it simultaneously makes you feel great and terrible about turning 30.
The book is full of statistics and anecdotes, half of which make you say "That's great, I'm way ahead of the game" and half of which make you say "Are you kidding me? Bill Gates made $234 million at age 30?! I should just call it a life."
But, between my alternating thoughts of joy and self-loathing, the book provided some great bits of info about turning 30. Here are 11 statistics about entering your fourth decade that I found eye-opening, intriguing and/or ultra, ultra depressing.
The average person has had 7.5 jobs, and you'll have 2.4 more by age 35.
I've had more than 7.5 jobs... it's closer to 20. (
Dot-com era, man.
I made great money hopping from company to company during college.) Not counting temp work, I've only had three in adult life, though.
Of course, none of us compares to Homer Simpson, as quoted in the underrated modern-era episode "Papa's Got a Brand New Badge": "You know, I've had a lot of jobs -- boxer, mascot, astronaut, imitation Krusty, baby proofer, trucker, hippie, plow driver, food critic, conceptual artist, grease salesman, carny, mayor, drifter, bodyguard for the mayor, country-western manager, garbage commissioner, mountain climber, farmer, inventor, Smithers, Poochie, celebrity assistant, power plant worker, fortune cookie writer, beer baron, Kwik-E-Mart clerk, homophobe and missionary."
New Cleveland Indian Jason Knapp. I'm old enough to be... well, not his father, seeing as I was not knocking people up at age 11. But definitely old enough to be his funny uncle.
At age 30, you're older than 42 percent of Americans.
You never really think about how old you are until the Cleveland Indians trade away a Cy Young award-winning pitcher for four prospects... the most promising of whom is pitcher Jason Knapp, born August 31st, 1990.
dreams of an Indians World Series victory in my lifetime now officially hinge on someone born in the '90s
You're 26 percent less likely to make a New Year's resolution in your 30s... but if you do make one, you're 26 percent more likely to stick to it.
I totally believe this. I've definitely found my follow through (on all endeavors) has gotten better as I've gotten older.
Although I just looked back on the list I posted of
11 of My New Year's Resolutions for 2009
-- and I'm only doing so-so on getting these done. Still haven't signed up for a class.
That was a weird resolution for me to make.
Maybe I'll just watch a YouTube tutorial video on knitting or something.
I don't want a gun, but when we rented a cop car for filming at work, I did have a brief "Nooooooooo!" moment with a fake gun.
45 percent will own a firearm in their 30s.
The decade in your life when you're most likely to own a firearm is your 30s. I won't be joining them. Gun ownership has always held zero appeal to me.
I remember having a moment about six months ago where I realized,
"You know, I could own a gun if I wanted to."
Really, it had never even clicked in my head.
So I'm going to be part of that slight majority that doesn't own a gun during their 30s. Unless society plummeted deeper into shit in the next decade... or I move to Texas or Florida.
96 percent of gay people have realized they're gay by age 30.
So it's extremely unlikely that I'm going to wake up one day in the future and go,
"Ohhh! THAT'S why, despite the worst dialogue in film history, I've seen '300' seventeen times."
0.036 percent of people are in elementary school at age 30.
Billy likes to drink soda.
One out of 33 men and one out of 25 women are virgins at age 30.
I find this one confusing. I'm going to draw some generalizations here (which will, no doubt, be dissected and pounded in the comments).
Generalization one: People who are virgins at age 30 generally do so for religious reasons.
Two: Deeply religious people tend to get married to other deeply religious people relatively quickly in adult life.
Three: After those deeply religious people get married in their 20s, they have 14 seconds of awkward wedding night sex and lose their virginity.
Maybe monks, Catholic priests and Break.com fans can account for the 1/33 virgin men
... but where are all those women coming from?
I did not get married young.
81 percent of women and 71 percent of men have been married by age 30 (and 16 percent of each have been divorced).
When I was at my 10-year high school reunion, I noticed a huge trend amongst my classmates regarding marriage in your 20s. People who moved back to Cleveland after college (or never left Cleveland for college) were married by age 28. People who left Cleveland to live in a giant city (New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc.) were not married.
There were a few outliers in both directions but, in general, this rule proved true. And other friends of mine have confirmed the same pattern at their reunions.
I don't have much of a grandiose point here...
I could espouse on the tired city folk versus middle America debate
that seems to surface every election season, but I won't. Instead, I'll simply say this to my younger readers: Where you choose to live post-college is a monumental decision that doesn't just shape your professional life. So make the choice very carefully. And you need to take the option of moving back in with your parents "to save money" right off the table.
The most common way to die at age 30 is by accident.
29 percent of people who die at age 30 die in an accident. It's followed by suicide at 12 percent, homicide and cancer tied at 10 percent, then heart disease at seven percent.
according to the assholes who made the Wii Fit, 100 percent of people die because they have a bad center of balance.
30 is the average age of retirement for NFL players.
the modal age of death for people living in the domed city in Logan's Run
The odds you'll make it to your late 30s are 99,003 out of 100,000, or 99.003 percent.
In other words... come August 3rd, 2019, I'll be making a list called 11 Wild Statistics About Turning 40.
And the list will probably turn out better than this one did
, because I'm writing this still unbelievably hung over from my all-day 30th birthday party on Saturday.

DePauw's Chamber Music Program Spotlighted in Two Concerts, November 14 & 15
November 11, 2005
November 11, 2005, Greencastle, Ind. - The DePauw University School of Music will present two concerts in Thompson Recital Hall that showcase its chamber music program. A program on Monday, November 14 at 7:30 p.m., will focus on the school's brass department, as the event will include the DePauw Trumpet Ensemble, Horn Ensemble and Brass Quintet. Under the guidance of directors Lennie Foy and Robert Danforth, these ensembles will present a diverse program that ranges from the Renaissance pieces of Johann Schein and Thomas Bateson to transcriptions of works by Johannes Brahms and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
The following evening, Tuesday, November 15 at 7:30, the DePauw Percussion Ensemble will present a program that focuses on more contemporary fare, featuring pieces by John Cage, Rich O'Meara, Russell Peck and more. Led by the ensemble's director and dean of the School of Music, Amy Lynn Barber, the concert will incorporate a broad battery of percussion that is sure to expand one's sonic palette.
"Chamber music is one of the best ways to improve one's musicianship as well as one of the most enjoyable musical experiences," says Dr. Barber. "These concerts will showcase our instrumental students playing very diverse and exciting programs of very challenging music."
Both performances are free and open to the public.

Wealth makes people unhappy
Emily's Bianchi of Emory University in Atlanta and Katelin CSW at the University of Minnesota found that a large amount of money does not make people happier. On the contrary, rich people become more withdrawn and prefer loneliness as meetings with friends and, to an even greater extent, communication with relatives and neighbors.
After analyzing the results of an earlier survey, the researchers came to the conclusion that people with a high income annually devote evenings less communication than those who earn little. With friends wealthy people communicated several even more than poor, and relatives and neighbors — significantly less.
Experts came to the conclusion that high income causes a person to think more about the work and provokes him to rely mostly on himself. Because of this, one eventually ceases to receive pleasure from communication with others, which leads to his "isolation". The fact that, in General, rich people communicate less with family and more with friends, experts see another possible explanation: often people with low income are financially dependent on their own relatives, while for those who to a greater extent guaranteed, such is generally not covered. Decrease time to communicate with its neighbors can be explained by the fact that poor people can often ask a neighbor to help when you fix the faucet or mowing the lawn, while someone with a lot of money in this situation is likely to hire a specialist. Thus, wealth frees people from the "practical" need to maintain good relations with family and neighbors, and it changes his criteria when choosing a circle of friends.
Recently various specialists repeatedly addressed the question, can money make a person happier, and came to quite different conclusions. In particular, the British psychologists, representing the University of Stirling and University of Nottingham in March found that happiness does not depend on wages — in any case, a rise in income virtually never makes a person feel happier in the long run. Thus the pay cut to make a man unhappier in some cases, it may — according to the researchers, this is due not so much directly with the falling income, but with the fact that this deprives a person of a necessary sense of stability.
At the same time, researchers from the University of Cambridge recently stated that people, in a way, can buy happiness for money, if the funds will be spent, taking into account features of its psychology. But another group of scientists from Peking University, found that, does he feel he is a rich man, depends on how it is demanding to the beauty of his companion.Related posts:

If you want to work in Hollywood, it's important to speak the language. Here is a glossary of commonly-used terms and job descriptions to use as a reference. Above-the-Line Each of the key creatives in the filmmaking process, usually brought on before production begins (specifically, the writer, the director, the producers, and the actors).
Accounting The accounting department tracks all department expenses, pays the crew and the bills, and helps keep the film on budget.
Actor Also known as the Talent. It is the actors who bring the story, the script, and the director's vision to life.
Art Director The Production Designer's right hand. They speak with the construction coordinator about building the sets, stay on top of budgeting, and make the Production Designer's vision a reality.
Below-the-Line Everyone working on a film crew who is not Above-the-Line. For example, costume designers, grips, production assistants, sound designers, camera operators, etc.
Best Boy Electrical Best Boy is responsible for everything electrical, from selected equipment to generator hookups.
Blue Screen / Green Screen A process whereby actors work in front of an evenly lit blue or green background, which can then be replaced by digital images in post production.
Box-Office The total amount of money paid by movie-goers to see a movie, and a common way for industry professionals to rank "how well" a particular movie did during any given time period.
Call Sheet A list given out on set each night that states what scenes will be shot the next day, call times for each cast and crew member, and other pertinent information regarding the day's shoot and schedule.
Camera Operator The camera operator and camera assistants are the ones who actually hold the camera while shooting, and are responsible for maintaining the focus and camera movements desired by the DP.
Casting Director Selects the actors to play the various roles in the film through auditions and callbacks.
Catering Provides meals to the cast and crew during filming.
Clapboard Also known as a slate, this board holds all of the information pertinent to a particular shot. One of the camera assistants usually holds it up in front of the camera before the "action" begins so that the anyone in post production can identify the title, Director, DP, scene number, take number, the date, and the time. The stick at the top of the board is "clapped" so that the editor can synch up the sound recordings with the visual image.
Composer The composer writes the musical score to the film.
Continuity The degree to which a movie is temporally continuous. For example, if in scene one of a film an actor is wearing a green shirt in one shot, and a red shirt in another shot, the scene is NOT continuous (in this case, an error probably occurred on the part of the wardrobe department, and then the script supervisor failed to catch the mistake).
Costume Designer Works closely with the art department to conceptualize ideas for wardrobe.
Craft Services Provides food (mostly snacks, as well as "second meal" if the day goes into overtime) to the crew during filming.
Dailies Also known as Rushes, these are the first prints made from the negative film shot on the previous day. Often times the director, as well as some key cast and crew, view the dailies each night to make sure the film is progressing as planned.
Director Often considered the most important person on set, the director is also the principal creative artist on set. It the director's vision that drives the entire filmmaking process, and he or she who guides the actors, DP, wardrobe, art department, etc, into making it all become a reality.
Director of Photography (DP) Also called a Cinematographer, the DP is in charge of how each shot will look, by coordinating the lighting, film stock, and camera placement, all in accordance with the director's vision.
Editor Assembles the film together once it has been shot to create the "final cut" of the film (the finished product). In the early days of filmmaking, editing was done by literally cutting (splicing) and pasting the film back together, but now most editing is done digitally, with the industry standard programs being Avid and Final Cut Pro.
Extra/Background A non-speaking, non-specific person who appears in a movie.
First Assistant Director (1st AD) The eyes and ears of the director. The 1st AD often calls "action" and "cut" for the director, prepares call sheets, and tracks the progress of production.
Foley Artist One who creates sound effects using random objects and methods, and then synchs them up to the picture to make them seem like actual sounds from the scene (for example, a foley artist might make the sound of feet stepping in the snow by crunching a pile of corn flakes in his or her hands).
Gaffer Chief lighting technician, responsible for implementing the DP's wishes with lamps before and during a shoot.
Hairstylist The key hairstylist maps out the hairstyles for each character, making sure they fit into the time period of the film and keeping track of any continuity issues that may arise.
Key Grip The main person in charge of accessing what equipment is needed for each shot and getting it all on set. The grip's duties include laying dolly tracks, building platforms, and operating the camera cranes.
Location Manager Scouts out locations for the film's settings, sets up deals, and acquires the correct permits needed to film in a specific location.Make-Up Artist Makes the actors look good with make up, often times having to use prosthetics and molds to make actors look the part.
Martini Shot The last shot of the day. The martini shot got its name because the next shot will be in a Martini glass. The shot before the martini is called the Abby Singer.
Microphone The instruments used on set to record sound. The two most common types are Boom Mikes, which are a long pole with a microphone on the end, and Lav Mikes, which are usually attached somewhere (though hidden) on the actor or actress.
Option A contractual agreement between a producer and a writer that gives the producer the right to buy a particular work for a specified price within a given time period. During the allowed time (stated in the contract), the producer tries to "set up a deal" with the screenplay or book or written work that has been optioned, and if all goes well, the producer buys the rights to the work. If the option time runs out, and the project has not been set up, the writer has the right to extend the contract, as stated by the terms of the original option, or option it to a different producer. Option fees can range anywhere from one dollar to a few thousand dollars.
Post-Production Everything that happens on a movie after principal photography ends, including editing, special effects, and scoring.
Pre-Prodcution Everything that happens on a movie before principal photography, including script rewrites, set construction, location scouting, casting, and the hiring of the crew.
Producer The producer brings the material, talent, and money to the table, which essentially enables the film to get made.
Production Assistant (PA) The PAs are responsible for any and every odd job you can imagine. Some tasks include running errands, delivering packages, picking up lunch for actors, passing out walkie talkies, handing out call sheets, locking down the set, holding up traffic, and picking up trash. They are usually the first ones on set and the last ones to leave.
Production Designer (PD) Responsible for the overall visual design and feel of the film.
Production Office Coordinator (POC) Runs the production office and handles all the office paperwork, communications, and travel arrangements.
Production Supervisor Works towards becoming a UPM and does most of the same thing as the UPM does.
Script Supervisor Arguably one of the most important positions on set, the Script Supervisor breaks down the script and is responsible for matching each take so there is continuity from one frame to the next.
Second Assistant Director (2nd AD) Helps the 1st AD with call sheets and scheduling, and also often directs the extras/background.
Set Decorator Along with their crew, the set decorator "dresses" the sets with furnishings, paintings, and props each day to give it realistic feel.
Set Designer Draws and executes the plans as described by the art director.
Set Medic On set doctor that takes care of everyone's aches and pains during the long hours of shooting.
Sound Mixer The Sound Mixer fills in the sounds not captured during filming, and adjusts all of the different audio tracks (layers) so that everything is at the correct level.
Special Effects Editor Artificially creates sound effects (e.g. glass breaking etc.) or Visual effects (i.e. green screen replacement) to add into the film.
Still Photographer Takes production stills the unit publicist can use to promote the film.
Storyboard Artist Works closely with the director to draw a series of sketches that represent the visual progression of the film or a specific sequence of the film.
Unit Production Manager (UPM) Deals with all the details of making the film, from hiring the crew, to managing the budget.
Writer The person who tells the story, either through a novel, play, or script. The screenplay is the starting point for every motion picture.

Valkonen, Eija (2010) Egg production in furnished cages. PhD thesis, MTT Agrifood Research Finland . MTT Science, no. 12. MTT Agrifood Research Finland.
- Published Version
- English
Online at: http://www.mtt.fi/mtttiede/pdf/mtttiede12.pdf
In the European Union, conventional cages for laying hens will be faded out at the beginning of 2012. The rationale behind this is a public concern over animal welfare in egg production. As alternatives to conventional cages, the European Union Council Directive 1999/74/ EC allows non-cage systems and enriched (furnished) cages. Layer performance, behavior, and welfare in differently sized furnished cages have been investigated quite widely during recent decades, but nutrition of hens in this production system has received less attention.
This thesis aims to compare production and feed intake of laying hens in furnished and conventional cages and to study the effects of different dietary treatments in these production systems, thus contributing to the general knowledge of furnished cages as an egg production system. A furnished cage model for 8 hens was compared with a 3-hen conventional cage.
Three consecutive experiments each studied one aspect of layer diet: The first experiment investigated the effects of dietary protein/energy ratio, the second dietary energy levels, and the third the effects of extra limestone supplementation. In addition, a fourth experiment evaluated the effects of perches on feed consumption and behavior of hens in furnished cages.
The dietary treatments in experiments 1–3 generally had similar effects in the two cage types. Thus, there was no evidence supporting a change in nutrient requirements for laying hens when conventional cages are replaced with small-group furnished cages. Moreover, the results from nutritional experiments conducted in conventional cages can be applied to smallgroup furnished cage systems.
These results support the view that production performance comparable with conventional cages can be achieved in furnished cages. All of the advantages of cages for bird welfare are sustained in the smallgroup furnished cages used here. In addition, frequent use of perches and nests implies a wider behavioral repertoire in furnished cages than in conventional cages. The increase observed in bone ash content may improve bird welfare in furnished cages.
The presence of perches diminished feed consumption during the prelaying period and enhanced the feed conversion ratio during the early laying period in furnished cages. However, as the presence or absence of perches in furnished cages had no significant effect on feed consumption after the prelaying period, the lower feed consumption observed in furnished cages than in conventional cages could be attributed to other factors, such as the presence of wood shavings or a nest box. The wider feed trough space per hen in conventional than in furnished cages may partly explain the higher feed consumption observed in conventional cages.

Block Shooter is a physics action game.
Red blocks are evil, you must save blue blocks.
The purpose is to make the red blocks fall from the stage, while avoiding the blue blocks.
Shoot down the red blocks with ball to get points. Shoot down the blue blocks will lose points.
There are bomb, rubber, iron balls and so on. Different balls have different skills and power.
The stage could be different kinds, stone, ice, jelly and so on. Different platforms give you different experiments.
Sounds pretty easy?! Sure but, each time you choose a ball to throw, it will cost you the corresponding points.
And seriously, if you dont get enough points, you cant move to the next level. You have to replay the current level until you get that point.

Hollywood may be known for its svelte stars, but comedian Rebel Wilson says gaining weight has actually helped her land some major roles.
The 36-year-old Australian actress reveled to The Telegraph that early in her career she toyed with gaining more weight to get more laughs.
"I was like: 'Oh. That girl's getting a lot of laughs, a lot easier than me... I think it's because she's fatter,'" she confessed, referring to a former co-star. "And then, I don't know if it was mega-conscious, but I thought: 'How can I get more laughs? Maybe if I was a bit fatter…' And then suddenly I was fatter, and doing comedy."
The "Pitch Perfect" star, who has a hormonal imbalance which causes her to gain weight quickly, went on to say she prefers to look at her size as an advantage rather than the disadvantage as some would see.
This isn't the first time Wilson has opened up about weight issues in Hollywood. Last year she told Australia's Daily Life she believes "bigger girls do better in comedy" because people find it easier to laugh at them. "It's very hard to laugh at someone who's very attractive, I think," she said.
Its a theory that comedians like Zack Galifianakis, Seth Rogen and Jonah Hill might agree with. The funnymen who have received plenty of backlash since losing weight.
As for Wilson dropping a few pounds, the actress says she isn't opposed to it, despite those around her telling her not to do it.

I traveled to Romania for the first time in May 2007 in an attempt to explore the healing process of a country nearly twenty years after the fall of Nicolae Ceausescu and the end of the communist reign over the country. This body of work was born out of what I saw when I arrived: a people who love their country but battle its ghosts as they try to move past the oppression that riddled them for so long. New class separations accompany remnants of the divide between country and city living--the remains of the old world, efforts of the middle world, and progression of the new world. I strive within this project to marry art with documentary, storytelling through images. I work to capture the way a country and people recover and move forward, reclaiming the identity and tradition that was methodically stripped away by the former dictatorship.

New York City – Cushman & Wakefield announced today that Project Pie, a fast casual, custom pizza restaurant, signed a long-term lease at 212 Eighth Avenue, located between 20thand 21stStreets, for the franchise's first New York City location.
Project Pie will occupy a total of 2,640 square feet on the ground and basement in the building, the former location of Rawhide, the iconic New York City bar. The franchise also has locations in Las Vegas, Nev. and San Diego, Calif.
Cushman & Wakefield's Alan Schmerzler, Executive Director and Christopher Schwart, Senior Associate, represented Project Pie in the transaction. Peter Braus, Managing Principal, and JP Sutro, Associate, of Lee & Associates represented the landlord.
Project Pie intends to open within six months. The space will undergo major renovation.
"Project Pie wants to make a splash in the Manhattan marketplace and we all feel this is a perfect location for its first NYC outpost," said Christopher Schwart. "It will be a welcome addition to the neighborhood."
The owner, James Markham, originally from the East Coast, has been in the pizza industry since 2008, when he opened his first pizzeria in San Diego. He was looking for the right location back East for a long time and finally found it on Eighth Avenue. "It's a very prominent corner in the middle of Chelsea that is ideal for a new concept pizza restaurant such as Project Pie," said Peter Braus.
Cushman & Wakefield is the world's largest privately‐held commercial real estate services firm. The company advises and represents clients on all aspects of property occupancy and investment, and has established a preeminent position in the world's major markets, as evidenced by its frequent involvement in many of the most significant property leases, sales and assignments.

ATLANTA | The state entity with the largest number of buildings uses them an average of 25 percent of the workweek, leaving them empty the rest of the time, a new study shows.
The University System of Georgia studied the issue itself at all 31 of the state's public colleges and universities and found it could be more efficient.
"We think we need to do some improvement. We need to work with some institutions, quite frankly," said University Chancellor Hank Huckaby in an interview Friday.
Much of the reason is most classes are offered Monday through Thursday between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. As a result, changes in scheduling will be critical in optimizing space.
"I think folks will be taking more Friday classes, and early in the morning and late in the evening," said Tom Jackson, University of Georgia vice president for public affairs.
The University System is by far the state's largest holder of building space with 70 million square feet. That's more than the space used by the nine next-largest state agencies combined, including the prison system, technical colleges and the Georgia Building Authority that leases to most state agencies.
The county with the largest number of state buildings is Clarke, home of the University of Georgia, with 702. Fulton, site of the state capital, has only 400, according to the 2012 annual report of the State Properties Commission.
Statewide, the University System has 352 leases for $300 million in annual rent or 72 percent of all the rent paid by the state.
While the Properties Commission forced greater efficiencies on the building usage of most of state government starting in the Perdue administration, the largely autonomous Board of Regents that oversees the University System only began its space-use initiative with a study completed in May. System administrators say it is the most ambitious analysis by any state and that the groundbreaking techniques are already being copied around the country.
The rising cost of higher education and declining state appropriations for it squeeze college administrators into finding greater efficiencies. That's why the space study is being seen by many administrators as an added hurdle to their requests for new buildings.
"It's emphasized from the system to the campuses that we have to have a need and have the data to back that up. We're going to be much more attentive to data," said UGa's Jackson.
Huckaby said the systemwide study has already put the brakes on several proposed building projects and made school presidents more hesitant to submit new proposals.
But it could have the opposite effect on some campuses, according to Edward B. Jolley Jr., vice president for business and financial affairs at Savannah State University. That's because it exposes quality differences between classrooms at some schools and those of others.
Efforts at greater efficiency are likely to encounter resistance, Jolley notes, because professors like the flexibility of their current schedules and the convenience of having classes near their offices.
And Huckaby acknowledges that legislators, community leaders and college presidents take pride in "shiny new buildings."
Gregory F. Aloia, president of College of Coastal Georgia, describes his school's new buildings as critical in recruiting students and faculty following the recent transition to a four-year college.
"You look at a lot of surveys of students and 'What attracted you there?' They say the quality of the physical plant," he said.

The indispensable John Tierney has a great article up at the NYT asking an important question — are we making playgrounds too safe? Across the nation, swings, slides, merry-go-rounds and even teeter-totters are vanishing. But…
"Children need to encounter risks and overcome fears on the playground," said Ellen Sandseter, a professor of psychology at Queen Maud University in Norway. "I think monkey bars and tall slides are great. As playgrounds become more and more boring, these are some of the few features that still can give children thrilling experiences with heights and high speed."
We have a nice playground near my house. Sal 11000 Beta was terrified of the high slide at first; now loves it. She's regularly crossing the monkey bars and loves the swings. And I've watched her overall confidence grow along with her physical confidence. I've also noticed, however, that she's frequently the only kid there.
Sometimes, of course, their mastery fails, and falls are the common form of playground injury. But these rarely cause permanent damage, either physically or emotionally. While some psychologists — and many parents — have worried that a child who suffered a bad fall would develop a fear of heights, studies have shown the opposite pattern: A child who's hurt in a fall before the age of 9 is less likely as a teenager to have a fear of heights.
By gradually exposing themselves to more and more dangers on the playground, children are using the same habituation techniques developed by therapists to help adults conquer phobias, according to Dr. Sandseter and a fellow psychologist, Leif Kennair, of the Norwegian University for Science and Technology.
I talk a lot on this blog about how people can't succeed without the freedom to fail. The same applies to kids — in school, in life and on the playground. You can't learn to climb without the occasional fall; you can't run without the occasional stumble; you can't make friends without the occasional rejection. Dealing with failure, difficulty and even pain is one of the most important skills to learn. And, thanks to silly lawsuits and a paranoid culture, we're insulating our kids from that, raising a generation of fat terrified kids.
Seriously, check out this article, which describes parents fretting about their children riding buses, going into the woods without walking talkies and swimming without a lifeguard. They're responding by, among other things, forbidding kids from holding their breath under-water.
So no breath holding, no swimming without a lifeguard, no unsupervised play and don't even think about getting on a bus alone until you're old enough to drive. At which time you will no longer need the bus in the first place.
Or consider this story about the hyper-regulation of Colorado preschools, where a child's life is regulated down to the race of the dolls they play with. TV time is restricted, teachers are forbidden from eating fast food near kids and whole milk is banned. (Although whether this is more child paranoia than ridiculous job-justifying over-regulation is debatable).
This is insanity. We can not protect kids from life, either with our personal behavior or with our regulations. As Penn says, the world is not made of nerf. You're going to get cut; but not too deep if you're careful. Childhood is a time to enjoy life, to be free to explore and yes, to fall and get hurt. It's not a time to be put into a prison built of lawsuits, regulations and parental hysteria.
Back in the real world, I blogged earlier this week about Leiby Kletzky, the hassidic boy murdered the first time he tried to walk home on his own. You can read the statement from his parents here. Even after the unthinkable, they still have more perspective than 90% of the people out there.

Quality over quantity: We've all heard it before but it definitely applies to your wardrobe.
Basics are essential staples in your closet, consider them investments. Some of those pieces may cost more initially but they last longer, wear better and save you from replacing regularly.
Quality simply feels better. The tank is super soft and the jeans, well, it's difficult to replicate the fit and feel of designer denim (worth the splurge).
I paired the basic garments with simple but quirky accessories that I can mix and match with the rest of my wardrobe.

20 Pantry Staples You Can Easily Make Yourself!
WELCOME to "Save My Sanity Saturday" at One Good Thing By Jillee….where I attempt to avoid having a nervous breakdown by actually giving myself a day off from blogging once a week! Please pull up a chair, sit back, and enjoy an "oldie but goodie" from the One Good Thing By Jillee archives.
—-Originally posted on October 31, 2012—-
I have a theory and it goes something like this……
My grandparents' generation was definitely a much more "self-reliant" bunch than my parents' generation, and likewise, my parents' generation was a great deal more "self-reliant" compared to MY generation. But as I look back over the years…I feel like we are coming back around to full circle.
More and more OUR generations are looking at the way our parents and grandparents did things and trying to emulate that. I believe people really want to get back to a time where common household essentials were more natural, less costly (in more ways than just financially) and were something to take pride in.
So along that train of thought…I got to thinking about some of the things most of us purchase at the grocery store that I'm almost certain our grandparents (and parents) made from scratch. I decided to compile a list of kitchen staples that over the years I have started making from scratch (that I used to buy at the store) and a few I haven't tried before!
Well this is a little embarrassing to admit, but I did NOT know that brown sugar was simply granulated sugar and molasses. Maybe I did…in some dark recess of my mind. I'm not sure. Anyway, this recent revelation had me immediately searching through my pantry to find that bottle of molasses that was hiding somewhere!
How to Make Brown Sugar
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon molasses (add more for a darker brown sugar)
Add sugar and molasses to a bowl and mix together. I used a whisk because it helped to incorporate all the molasses. It takes a few minutes until it's completely mixed in…but that's it. You just made your own brown sugar. Umm…it doesn't get any easier than that people! For dark brown sugar, add another tablespoon of molasses. Store in an airtight container.
Once in a while I will run across a recipe that requires "self-rising flour". (Many southern cooks won't use anything else in their biscuits or shortcakes.) I never questioned this. I would just go to the store and buy a bag. Finally, one day I asked the question (to no one in particular), "What exactly IS self-rising flour anyway?" Here is the answer:
To make one cup of self-rising flour:
Sift together-
- 1 cup of all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
Once again, that's it. Which begs the question…..why would you buy a box or bag of this when you already have everything on hand to make it?? It's a mystery I tell ya!
more kitchen staples:
This is a "gray area" for me. I RARELY buy bottled dressing (ugh! Can't stand it after I started making my own!)…BUT, more often than not, I use Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing & Seasoning Mix (the dry stuff) and add my own mayonnaise and milk (or buttermilk.) So it's SORTA homemade.
I started making these more as a CONVENIENCE than anything else. I got sick of having to run to the store to get some if I wanted to make my Parmesan Chicken. Then one day it hit me, I ALWAYS (well, mostly) have BREAD in the house! Why not just MAKE some! duh.
Granola & granola bars have become SO popular during the last decade or so because they are SO handy to keep in your pantry, your purse, your lunch box, your car
…for a quick snack that's fairly healthy. Before this the go-to snacks were mostly candy bars! The thing is, they are expensive when you buy them in boxes all individually wrapped (not to mention wasteful!) and making your own is SO easy!
Somewhere along the way we decided throwing a few different ingredients in a bowl and mixing them up was just TOO much work
! Now we want to simply ADD WATER and have instant pancake batter. This is just plain silliness to me. We need to change this. 🙂
Sugar, water, maple flavoring, done. Aunt Jemima, isn't it time you retired? 🙂
Another silliness thing to me. Why would you buy this already made up in plastic tub, or worse, an aerosol can, when it's so SIMPLE to make at home?
I'll admit, the little packets are handy…but, again, expensive and wasteful. Making oatmeal the "old-fashioned" way HAS to make a comeback!
I know it's fun
So many recipes call for chicken stock or broth to add flavor, but since I rarely buy it, I would usually skip those recipes and move on to something that DIDN'T require it. That is until I realized that you can easily substitute chicken bouillon in your recipe. Each bouillon cube, added to 1 cup of water, makes 1 cup of broth. Done. No more lugging home all those cans or cartons.
I could keep going….but I will spare you! 😉 I think I've made my point. Hopefully, if nothing else, this post will help you see the "convenience" items you purchase in the grocery store in a different light and realize how EASY (not to mention cheaper and better-tasting!) they are to make yourself at home.

Napier Building
North Terrace
Biography/ Background
Paul Sendziuk is a graduate of the University of Western Australia and Monash University. He specialises in twentieth-century Australian History and comparative History, with particular interests in post-war immigration, public health and the history of disease. Paul's doctoral thesis, 'Learning to Trust: A History of Australian Responses to AIDS', was awarded the 2002 Mollie Holman Doctoral Medal. A revised version of this text, published by UNSW Press and University of Washington Press, was short-listed for the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission's 2004 Human Rights Award (non-fiction section).
Paul is currently finishing two research projects. The first is titled 'The Art of AIDS Prevention: Cultural Responses to HIV/AIDS in Australia, South Africa and the United States', which explores the nexus between art and health promotion and the way in which artists can save lives. (The findings will be published in a book under contract with Palgrave Macmillan.) The second, titled 'Volunteers in Crisis: Analysing Responses to HIV/AIDS in Australia', is a collaboration between Paul and A/Prof. Shirleene Robinson and A/Prof. Robert Reynolds. The team received an Australian Research Council Discovery grant (DP160103552) to conduct the project in 2016-18.
Paul recently completed A History of South Australia, co-authored by Robert Foster, which will be published by Cambridge University Press in 2018. He also finished a project titled 'A Forgotten Odyssey: A Study of Polish-Australian Displacement, Identity and Memory through Life Stories and Material Culture', which investigated the poorly understood experience of Polish displaced persons who migrated to Australia after World War Two. One of the outcomes of this project is a collection of oral histories held at the National Library of Australia.
At undergraduate level, Paul teaches 'Australia and the World in the Twentieth Century', 'Colonial Australia' and 'Migrants, Refugees and the Making of Modern Australia'. At Honours level, he teaches 'Themes and Debates in South Australian History' and the 'Common Course' (a course in historical method and theory). He also supervises a number of Honours and postgraduate students. In recognition of his work, he was awarded the Executive Dean's Excellence in Teaching Award in 2007, and the University's highest teaching honour, the Stephen Cole the Elder Award for Excellence in Teaching, in 2009. More recently he was the receipent of an Australian Learning and Teaching Council Citation for Outstanding Contribution to Student Learning. For his work as a supervisor in 2017 he won the Faculty of Arts Excellence in Postgraduate Supervision Prize, a Beacon Commendation for Implementing Effective HDR Supervison Practices, and his second Stephen Cole the Elder Award for Excellence in HDR Supervisory Practice. Paul was invited to participate in the 'History Passion Project' and a video of him speaking about his approach to teaching History can be viewed here.
Paul was is serving the second of two two-year terms as Treasurer of the Australian Historical Association and is a member of its Executive Committee. He is a Council Member of the Australian and New Zealand Society of the History of Medicine and serves on the Editorial Board of the journal Health and History.
Paul also co-hosts a regular Australian History program on ABC radio, Adelaide. Recent programs have included 'The Referendum to Ban the Communist Party' and 'Who Were the Convicts?'.
Recent articles by Paul Sendziuk have appeared in History Australia, Journal of Australian Colonial History, Australian Historical Studies, Australian Studies, Health and History, Journal of Australian Studies and the International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education.
