Is the heart overlooked when it comes to intelligence?
The center of the nervous system, the brain, has been popularly defined as the fundamental core of intellectual activity. Yet, in my Bioelectricity class with Professor Nina Tandon, we learned about recent research suggesting that information processing in the body may in fact be more distributed.
For example, there is increasing evidence suggesting that the cardioelectromagenetic field can actually affect human beings in close proximity.These signals are stronger in amplitude when in direct contact, but are still detectable up to several feet away from the source. Through these interactions, the heart transfers energies between human beings. The heart can therefore be characterized as the engine for distributing and controlling energy of the human body.
These extraordinary results illustrate that the heart is not only responsible for blood regulations, but is also a very powerful intelligence system.
This made me wonder, could intelligence be distributed through the body in ways we might not expect? Could this information sent to the brain perhaps even influence emotional states? Or provide insight into some of the unexplained links between "mental" and "bodily" diseases (eg Alzheimer's and cardiac disease etc)?
See: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3547419/
and http://books.google.com/books?id=pvkpdNHhI6cC for more details
Given that the heart and other organs are frequently excluded from the
intellectual discussion, I would like to ask the Ted community, how do
these new findings affect how we view intelligence? How will our
interactions with each other differ if we view more of our bodies as

Apr 16 2013: But you still haven't answered my question, which had to do with validating your assertion that "Energy is what animates our physical matter. The mind is a form of pure energy; the physical organs are matter, material. Thus, it is our mind which gives the life energy to the physical body". This has nothing to do with any kind of scientific definition of what energy is, nor what I was talking about, which is string theory.
"Science is wonderful ... because science is about knowing something. Not simply having an unchallenged hypothesis, but true KNOWLEDGE."
I agree, which is why I'm trying to challenge you on all these unchallenged hypothesis you expect me to believe.

Carroll lost her hair, but she never lost her knowing that she would survive.
She is doing extraordinarily well. Never has had any nausea or weakness. And certainly her attitude and sense of humor is bringing her along this way with much grace.
Her doctor tells her that after her last chemo session starting May 20th, he will do another scan to check the progress. But as far now, it is looking so good that she has already scheduled trips the end of May, in June and July. She is totally convinced that her healing will be complete.
She gave me a "raise" in salary today. And then she said that she was going to sell the business so that she could travel but that she wanted me to go with the business - that she didn't want to leave me high and dry. She made that stipulation with her sales broker. I thanked her for the raise and for her concern though I told her I would be just fine. She said, "I know you will always be fine but I want to know that I didn't leave you high and dry." I thanked her for her consideration.
And yes, she said, just because I have put my business up for sale doesn't mean that it will sell tomorrow.
Now this is the wonderful thing with all of that. This is my reaction in this year of 2013. My reaction is acceptance of what is. And now my responsibility is to be the best in whatever situation I find myself.
That is what I have learned throughout this experience with my son. And now I am being provided another situation in which to practice that with myself.
I so love practicing with myself. Certainly need practice to get it right for me.
I am so grateful for this experience. Like Sean said, "Mom, you were supposed to be with Carroll to help her through this situation." Yes, I agree. I suggested she bless the chemo and the radiation for the benefit of her body, mind and soul. And she has done so. And in the doing, now we are seeing the magnificent results of that blessing. Just lends more knowing that all is connected. ALL, even the chemo and the radiation are connected to our thoughts and vibrations and intentions.
I believe, No, I KNOW that is what it is all about - the connection of everything and our just honoring that knowing, respecting and drawing it forward for the good of all.
Love you all so very much,

Welcome to the Columbia Jewish Federation!
The Steve Terner Jewish Camp

JFNA Launches Oklahoma City Tornado Relief Fund
May 21, 2013
The Jewish Federations of North America is opening a mailbox to gather aid from across the Jewish Federation community for the victims of the devastating tornado that tore through the Oklahoma City area last night, killing and injuring many people and leaving a wide path of destruction. JFNA has opened a mailbox to support relief efforts of the Jewish Federation of Greater Oklahoma City, and is coordinating relief efforts with the Federation. One hundred percent of funds donated will go to the local Federation and its relief efforts on the ground. Speaking on behalf of the Jewish Federations community, JFNA extends its deepest sympathy and support to the people of the Oklahoma City area in the wake of the massive tornado that killed at least two dozen people, injured scores of others and devastated entire neighborhoods. The suburb of Moore bore the brunt of the killer storm. The twister flattened an elementary school, killing seven children. More than 100 people have been pulled from the rubble of residences and commercial buildings, according to news reports. "Our hearts go out to all those who were in the path of this disaster and who are grieving the loss of their loved ones," said Michael Siegal, chair of the JFNA Board of Trustees. "This was a terrible tragedy. The destruction of an elementary school filled with students and teachers was especially painful." JFNA remains in close contact with Edie Roodman, the executive director of the Jewish Federation of Greater Oklahoma, to determine the needs on the ground and next steps. Roodman this morning said the Federation is opening its own fund, The Oklahoma Disaster Relief Fund Through the Oklahoma Jewish Community, to coordinate local efforts. The JFNA national fund will send all donations to this local fund. The local Federation is coordinating efforts on the ground with longtime partners, including a local food bank, Habitat for Humanity, and the Red Cross, Roodman said. JFNA will continue to keep the system updated about this ongoing relief effort.

LANSING, Mich. (AP) — The Michigan Senate may vote this week to protect health providers who refuse to provide services on moral or religious grounds.
State law already shields hospitals and doctors from having to perform an abortion. Supporters say the law should be broadened so providers and insurers don't face legal repercussions for not providing contraception, taking someone off life support or performing another procedure.
Many in the medical community say the bill is overly broad and a solution in search of a problem.
Versions of the legislation date back a decade. Supporters including the Michigan Catholic Conference are hopeful a conscience-objection measure becomes law since Republicans control the Legislature.
GOP Gov. Rick Snyder has no official position on the measure and typically isn't enthusiastic about social issues.

Q&A: Spotting before my period. Should I call my doctor?
The first day of my last period was November 4. My next period is due December 2. I was at the doctor around November 11 and he said I was ovulating. This whole month I have had lower stomach cramps, my breasts have been really tender and on thanksgiving night I started to spot slightly, which is a week before my period is due.
My first question is how my doctor knew I was ovulating by doing a pelvic exam. He said something about the discharge, but I was wondering if he could just be seeing semen left from the night before with my husband.
My second question is should I be concerned about the spotting. We are trying to have a baby and was wondering how long I should go with the spotting before calling the doctor. I don't want to be a pest.
Your doctor probably used two pieces of information–a cystic follicle felt on one of your ovaries and the elasticity of your mucus, which isn't usually confused with semen. However, he could only diagnose that you were at or approaching ovulation, not specifically ovulating right then and there. The spotting is unrelated to the exam, since it happened too long after. It could possibly be a ruptured cyst or a lackluster second phase of your cycle, which all women have from time to time. It shouldn't impact your chances of pregancy, except for this particular cycle.

World Class Boot
Member since
In my opinion the Ceptor is the best lace-up for your money, especially on sale like I found it. I've moved to this boot from a worn out no name boot with no stiffness at all that has nearly caused broken ankles when landing toe side or free riding hard. The Alpha Liner is superb, gripping your Achilles Tendon and securing your ankle with the help of the ankle harness system. This results in a fit that is more solid yet far more comfortable than even a ski boot.
The only cons of the Ceptor I would say are the loss of edge awareness and feedback with this stiff of a boot, but you have to expect that. Read that as this is a terri le boot for a novice rider. The vent system works well, but it can make for cold feet with even the best socks on a cold January day in Tahoe or CO.
Highly recommend to any free riders who like to tear up the choppy stuff and would prefer not to break their ankles doing so.

Great boots, beware of sizing!

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
These boots are awesome. Stiff and responsive while remaining comfortable (not as comfortable as a soft boot but they're pretty comfy for stiff boots). The sole provides great traction and they boots keep my feet warm. I have used these boots from peak to base rides and in the park and they have proven to be very versatile. If I was riding park all day however I would prefer something with a little more flex (e.g. DC Super Park or a pair of Thirtytwo's).
One thing to note however is the sizing. I wear a size 11 in 32, Burton, and K2 boots but had to order a size 11.5 in these boots! They do run a little small.

i wear an 11.5 mens nike zoom right now. is there any sizing difference with dc boots?
Member since
I wear the black/green in a 10.5. If you've worn DC's shoes at all, these boots feel like they're a .5 size smaller in the toe area then their shoes, which I also wear the 10.5 in their shoes and they feel like slippers.
Very stiff outer shell for some serious ankle support and an inner liner that is very comfortable to keep your feet in for a full day of pushing hard on the mountain.
Would recommend these boots to anyone and I even payed full price in a local shop for 300$ and seeing them here on sale for 175$ I still don't feel ripped off. Love these boots

Last week was inspiring. On Thursday, I traveled to Norco, California to visit a middle school and take part in an excellent leadership discussion. We laughed, told stories and enjoyed our time together. Going back to a school setting reminded me of my childhood and a sense of nostalgia took hold of me.
The following list of quotes were found from various sites and spoke to me personally as I reminisce on my excellent yesterday. Enjoy these and feel free to share them with others….

The elephant is the largest living land animal, revered for its strength and intelligence. In the Far East, the elephant traditionally carried royalty and nobility, therefore equating it with much status. The elephant symbolizes wisdom, patience, and longevity and is the subject of much folklore. Though big and strong, elephants are really peaceful, gentle animals.

Guest post: A key to Awakened Leadership is learning to lead from a place of authenticity and love, and to permit that authenticity and love to rub off on those around you, so they can choose to lead from a similar place of strength. One place where we can learn about awakening is to look at lessons from the world's oldest and most potent medication – the placebo effect.
A big shout out to Chad Thompson and Monkey C Media for taking some fantastic photos the other day. The "three of us" thanks you :)
Beautiful stillness
via SmartBlog on Leadership
Sacred: devoted exclusively to one service or use (as of a person or purpose); entitled to reverence and respect (excerpted from Merriam-Webster dictionary).
As you get busy with the start of a new year, a new quarter, a promotion, or life and work in general, it's vital to consider honoring sacred space for yourself and those around you.
Although there might be the fading echoes of holiday joy in the air, there is also tension and a buildup of stress with everything that's beckoning to be done in 2013. When you get distracted with the urgency of all you need to get done, it can show in your ability to be the best leader you can possibly be.
What does happiness look like to you?

Herb Kelleher and "éminence grise" shouldn't really go together. But the Wild Turkey 101-drinking, chain-smoking founder and chairman emeritus of Southwest Airlines (LUV) is now 82 and knows more about the airline industry than practically anyone else on the planet.
A former lawyer who famously created the business model for Southwest on the back of a (cocktail) napkin, Kelleher is one of those rare birds: an entrepreneur who managed to create a successful startup, then stuck around to build it into a huge corporation and a perennial on this magazine's Most Admired Companies list. Fortune's Jennifer Reingold sat down with him in his office at Southwest's Dallas headquarters to get his take on airline consolidation, the book he's writing, treating employees right, and basically anything else he felt like discussing.

Congratulations Team Aqua in the RC44
2041 would like to congratulate Team Aqua (GBR) on placing 2nd for the Austria Cup at Lake Traunsee.
Two months ago, Team Aqua took 3rd in San Diego, California before purchasing their new boat. On the Traunsee event, Chris Bake stated, "I think getting out there and sailing a new boat and having the consistency that we had was great. There were a few missed opportunities and that probably cost us first place but ORACLE Racing sailed unbelievably and they deserve the position they got. We got a good second and so I'm really happy, the team has done a phenomenal job pulling the boat together, the boat felt good, so now it's just a matter of improving on that."
The Tour now heads to Cagliari in Sardinia (29 June – 3 July)

In hard times, businesses think outside the box
By Tara Nelson
While many businesses on Main Street are struggling economically, some of Blaine's own are finding creative ways to stay afloat during the current financial crisis.
One of those businesses is Blaine's Petal Attractions floral shop on Peace Portal Drive. Owner Adrianne Hanson recently expanded her floral business to include a gallery of works by nine local artists of the Sweet Road Artisan Alliance (SRAA). With sales down nearly 60 percent since last year, Hanson, a florist of 13 years and a single mother of two, had a choice: either diversify or close the doors completely.
"There has been very little business and instead of buying inventory, we thought it would make a good use of the space," she said. "We were thinking about closing after sales this summer were down 60 percent from last year. The economy's just been really bad for us."
Works currently on display include oil paintings and wood carvings by Robert Hogan and Jim Agnello; landscape and abstract photography by Andrew Ryser of Cheap Shots Photography; jewelry by Allie Ryser "Glass Allie" and Karla Eames of Classy Sassy Glass; exotic wood carved knives by Bud Meltsner of Toothed Whale Designs; paintings by Cathy Taggett; as well as knitted hats and scarves by various local residents.
Hanson said she opened the business after working for another local florist and as a freelancer for several years. In 2002, she and a former business partner in a 400-square-foot storefront on C Street with only $3,000 in starting capital funds. She had also worked as part owner of Mailboxes Plus with her mother, Bessie Barredo.
In 2007, Hanson moved the store closer to the center of town and added a coffee bar, tables and ice cream. She also said she plans on expanding the dining area to include soups, sandwiches and a salad bar beginning in January.
Hanson said neither she nor her mother, with whom she also works, have received a paycheck since 2007 and that times have been rough – not just for themselves, but many small businesses in downtown Blaine. Forming a partnership with SRAA could help Hanson's struggling business.
The deal may not only prove beneficial for Hanson but also for the SRAA, which spent nearly $2,000 to coordinate its annual WinterFest arts and crafts festival last year, although the city of Blaine and the Blaine Chamber of Commerce helped fund part of that.
"It wasn't all out-of-pocket," said local artist and member Cathy Taggett. "That included banners and advertisements as well."
Taggett added that many in the group had long hoped to create an artists co-op in a vacant storefront space in downtown Blaine.
Although revenues from such a business would likely not be enough to cover rent, the cooperative could help create a draw for residents and visitors into downtown, thereby having a multiplier effect that would benefit other businesses and restaurants.
"When you travel around to small artist towns such as La Conner, they weren't always full of tourists," she said. "It was the artists and writers who moved in first and brought a certain life to the town, a different element that people like and seek out.
"That diversity adds interest to the town, which also adds to the culture, which, in turn, adds property value. I've seen it happen in Seattle, too, where artists move into areas they can afford and then it becomes a more enhanced location.
"We also hope to get the message out that we're all in a community and we'd like people to try to buy local, we try when we can and we see what's out there that's made locally. It's a real grassroots kind of thing."
Barredo agreed. A native of the Philippines, said she remains optimistic that Blaine can still thrive if the community pulls together to support its local businesses.
However, she added she thinks the financial recession is nearing the end of its term, citing several recent news articles.
"In my country we have a saying, Bayanihan. It means the community coming together," she said. "You have to work together, even if those people are your competition because we live in a small community."

Caravel's Morgan - WDEL HS Athlete of the Week
By Sean Greene
VIDEO: Interview with Micah Morgan
Caravel Academy guard Micah Morgan is this week's M&T Bank / WDEL High School Athlete of the Week.
The junior scored 26 points with 9 rebounds in a victory over Polytech Monday.
Morgan says her 4 assists in the contest are a result of the teamwork the Bucs exude on the court.
"That's why I love this team because it's not just about yourself, it's about helping others. If you see someone else open make the extra pass, that's our philosophy on the team."
That philosophy she mentions is consistent with her favorite player, this year's WNBA's MVP.
"Maya Moore, I really love her as a player. She could pick herself up by picking her teammates up as well. It's not always about making the shot, it's always about making the extra pass."
Following Christmas, Micah and Caravel gets their annual test in the Diamond State Classic where they are paired with Franklin High School out of New Jersey.
"There's nothing like being in that atmosphere. I love going there (St. Elizabeth) every year and playing against very competitive teams."
Micah says she wants to focus on a major in the medical field when she reaches college in two years.
"In middle school I always watched E.R. shows, I don't know if I want to be an E.R. doctor but I want to get in the medical field and help people out. I'm a compassionate person."

text: ELKHART LAKE, WI (WHBL) - State Representative Steve Kestell of Elkhart Lake has introduced legislation to ease restrictions on collectors of old cars. The legislation received committee approval Tuesday. Kestell said the bill will reduce the requirements for vehicle collectors in the hopes of preserving the hobby for the future and eliminating wrongful denials for collector registration. Kestell said the current law is very restrictive. He said his bill will simplify the process for the DMV, as they will not need to be an expert on old-car authenticity.

2012 Winter Issue 2 (January 20, 2012)
On the virtues of maple syrup and the vices of gluten-free bread
It's been a bit of an up and down week; things got cold, and grocery shopping got much more daunting for those of us lacking a car. On the other hand, on my first time eating in the LDC I noticed a very welcome change, in the form of display platters of such things as eggplant, potatoes, and onions. Maple syrup goes with everything.
The Importance of Spending Time With Good People
Greetings Carleton! Let me begin by introducing myself: My name is Matthew Fitzgerald and I am a sophomore and tentative religion major. I hail from the great plains of Minnesota and ended up here by a twist of fate that has turned out to one of the sweetest surprises.
On the treadmill
I'm currently sitting at my desk in my room in Evans. As I write this, I still have a page-long assignment to finish before 8:15 tomorrow morning and four pages left to write of a five-page paper. Ten minutes ago I finished a 700-word op-ed for another campus publication; before that I sent in an internship application that I had worked on for a few hours.

Cannot depend on officials. You have to win the game so that the officials do not have opportunity to award the game to the opponent.
Was it a bad call? I think so. But it should not have mattered. If it comes down to a single call then you didn't win the game anyway. And from what I saw, Thunder played a better game than the Blazers.

Agreed with Ethan, NOYB's premise for this post doesn't really make sense.
BlazerManiac hit the nail on the head with the real problem... and especially when we have videocameras that are not only closer, but have better eyesight and perfect memory than the ref.
And Stacks, just for the record, I was in section 119 cheering "All-star Aldridge" with my brother whenever I got the chance.

Patients send in testimonials about their remarkable service and care at the Helen Palmer Image Recovery Center.
"I've never been to a place as great as the Image Recovery Center! I haven't had hair for eight years. All that was out there were wig places with uncaring personnel with no concern for privacy. That is until I came to the Helen Palmer Image Recovery Center. Trish gave me personal service as if I was one of your own family members. There needs to be more people and places like this. I finally feel comfortable and attractive again!"
November 2013
"I especially want to mention Maryann - she was attentive to my situation and made the experience fun. It felt like a "girl's night out" atmosphere. Jessica gave me water and both were there to make me feel comfortable. Even though I live in Howell, I will visit the Helen Palmer Image Recovery Center for my future needs. Thank you!"
"All the employees here were very friendly and made you feel very comfortable. They made me feel right at home. Going through this procedure was very tragic to me, and they made me so comfortable and at ease. They taught me things I had never even thought of yet. I left feeling very pleased."

The New Dimension of NoSQL Scalability: Complexity
There are many attempts to classify the NoSQL world. Right now probably the most referred articles are Jonathan Elliot's ☞ NoSQL ecosystem, Stefan Edlich's ☞ NoSQL databases and yours truly ☞ Quick Reference to Alternative data storages.
But thanks to Emil Eifrem's post ☞ NoSQL: scaling to size and scaling to complexity, I have realized that most of these classifications have missed a critical dimension: complexity. I don't think there is anyone able to argue against the importance of this criteria for every business or project.
Emil's post analysis the complexity level associated with different types of NoSQL solutions (i.e. key-value stores, column-based stores, document databases, graph databases). The presented graphs are fantastic (I allowed myself to include below one of them — it fits well with the design of MyNoSQL):
It is interesting to note that Emil's post is describing the complexity from a single angle though: the programming model or differently said: the real data to data store impedance mismatch. I would argue that at large scale (even if "we are not all Google") there is another factor contributing to complexity: operational complexity.
Just as a quick example, in a previous post about HBase, I was mentioning the fact that sometimes tweaking and tuning NoSQL systems may be easier than tuning RDBMS (in HBase case most of the tuning can be done at the VM level).
Anyway, going forward any new attempt to classify NoSQL systems should consider the complexity criteria from both its aspects: real data to data store impedance mismatch and operation complexity.

Is it too early for the Red Sox to give manager John Farrell a raise? Whatever the Sox are paying Farrell, they should double it considering the performances he's been able to coax out of once-wayward starters Jon Lester and Clay Buchholz this season.
Maybe Bill Belichick should see what Fix 'em Farrell knows about cornerbacks. Everyone knew that the redemptive duo of Lester and Buchholz would be the compass for the Red Sox season. Seven games into the season the Sox and their reinvigorated aces are pointing due north.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
The kindergarten teacher our child had was wonderful. HER instruction was excellent; however, the school facilities and support were horrible. We only stayed a year. There were many promises of improvement made that never came to pass. Had the physical conditions of the building and the attitudes of the staff been better, we would have considered staying. BUT I am not so certain since most of the good teachers left a while ago.
Constantly in the dark. Less than a month now until new school year, & still don't have building to attend. Communication is poor. Education great in my experience for lower grades, however weak in 4th, & have been advised by other parents 5th is worse. Undecided whether to return!
As a parent of 2 at UA the academics for my 2nd grader were great. It appears 4th grade was uncertain I'm not sure if she was taught everything she should have. The real disappointment is never knowing what's going on in the school until the last minute and most of what the admin. says ends up not coming true. The new principal is kind and the nurse is great.
We have heard wonderful things about the academic focus at Universal Academy. The feedback that we have received from parents of students that attend there has all been positive. The student to teacher ratio is small compared to a traditional public school and staff and administration make a point to become involved with each student.
Quality program with a lot of parent involvement. Teachers, parents and students work together to strengthen test scores.
Please talk to parents whose children have left this school. I put my children back in public school and was shocked to see the children of my child's teacher at Universal Academy attending the public school also. This school is lacking in so many areas. There is no way for a child to receive a balanced, complete education at this school.
I just drove by UA Flower Mound, and noticed their sign advertizes 'gifted and talented eduaction', yet when I withdrew my children on the state standardized transfer form there is a box for 'gifted and talented ed' and the box was marked 'No'. This school is not what it is cracked up to be.
The administration makes horrible educational decisions that affect children long range. Social development is not fostered, breaks are minimal. Please don't buy the line about their advanced curriculum. The curriculum depends completely on the individual teacher. Ask about their teacher and student turnover rate before enrolling.
It angers me when a few parents with sour grapes try to ruin the reputation of a quality school. Other than a few administrative issues, I have only good to say about UA. My daughter is black and has always been treated with respect, even on occasions when she may not have been respectful in return. She is getting a first rate education by very qualified and caring teachers. She is held accountable and appropriately disciplined, but only when she has earned it. I am proud to send my daughter to UA.
This school is horrible. it is made out of styrofoam. After a hail storm there were little holes in it. Half the teachers are not even qualified to be teaching the classes they teach. I will never send my kid there again.
The Flower Mound site was a very negative place. I actually heard the principle talk down to a parent, for asking a question, in front of (around 300) parents and children. The Flower Mound site was very unbalanced. I tried to get my daughter used to it from Aug-Dec...She cried EVERYDAY when I dropped her off. The kept telling me it was okay, she was just suffering from separation anxiety. The principle said she would get her to the counselor but the counselor s office never got setup while I was there. I feel so bad for having my daughter attend the school. Her Pre-K teachers were nice but seemed like they were lacking in experience.
Universal Academy is not a good environment for anyone (especially young children). The atmosphere in this school is negative. This attitude rubs off on the teachers and students. Even very young children are yelled at. These children need to be nurtured and loved. Social interaction and physical development are essential to young childrens growth. Young children need to do physical activities to develop their gross motor skills, and have opportunities for non-directed social interaction to grow emotionaly and socially. None of these things are offered at this school. Actually they are looked down on by administration. Your child deseves these opportunities. Most of the teachers are good teachers, but work under so much hostility that it is shown in there classroom. Notice how many teachers left last year. Do you want your child in an environment that promotes such hostility.
My son was in kindergarten at UA for 5 months last year. We transferred him to our local elementary mid year. The administration is atrocious. Very rude, condescending. Not organized at all. Very poor at communication. Parents please do not put your children in this school.
UAFM is off to a great start? The building was in foreclosure weeks before school started. (School officials vehemently denied this at parent meetings) More than 60% of the teachers did not return. Most returning teachers have pulled their own children from UA. (Ask your child's teacher where their children attend!) Secondary grades were cancelled at the last minute. Just remember if it waddles like a duck, quacks like a duck, smells like a duck, it's probably still a duck. The more things change the more they truly stay the same.
Do you really want your child to attend a school where they cannot even handle their money efficiently? They have not paid their teachers for the past month and instead of their full paycheck they were given a $500 check and were told that maybe once financial problems were worked out, they might see the rest of their payment. They also terminated the teachers health insurance without official notification. I feel the teachers are excellent within the school but the so called 'administration' is unprofessional. Teachers and staff are exploited; they are not given recognition for all the hard work and time that is put into the education of the students.
Some teachers are good. Some are unprofessional. Uncertified teachers. Very little break time for Kindergarteners. Nice principals were laid off by Administration. Administration is very unprofessional. I'm rating this school low because of unbalanced program, lack of facilities, poor & rude administration. 4th new location in 4 years. Please compare your local public school to this school before going to this school.
I am impressed with the school. Teachers do care about the students and students receive quality education. Students are given the opportunity to to reach for their potential.
I have been impressed with the school ever since my children enrolled. I have seen my kids blossom, happy and confident. I appreciate the teachers' hands on teaching the kids and I can tell that the teachers do care for their students. I have had no regrets about my decision for my kids to attend the school. I only wished I had known sooner. I definitely recommend the school for any one ready to work with the teachers and kids. They do work hard, and you will see your kids improve and reach their potential. Parents are very involved at this school.
This school is excelent, my children are above their grade levels. UA promotes a love for learing, while teaching at a higher level than the other schools in the area. Yes their has been a lot of moving and changing for this school, but the education of the children has not been affected.
Do your homework before sending your child to this school. It is a toxic environment. The teachers are stressed out and burned out. There is no true curriculum. Teachers are supposed to create 'learning experiences', but they lack the experience and training to do so. There are no computers, no science labs, very limited supplies. The school is moving to an undisclosed campus which will make four locations in four years. Teacher and student turn-over are very high. Children are constantly withdrawing, and are replaced by new students. This is very disruptive to the learning environment. The administration makes terrible educational decisions, and are very unapproachable.

Santa is getting quite busy this time of year, but he's still making time to dine with Atlantans one final weekend before the big day. We've found some Santa brunches for the kids, a fancy dinner for those mature tastebuds and even a drinking party for the "naughty." Read on for the big red suit's final feastings.
St. Regis Atlanta
88 West Paces Ferry Road, Atlanta
This is an intimate family setting with Santa and Mrs. Clause, who join your children for holiday tea and photos.

Village Tavern
11555 Rainwater Drive, Alpharetta
On Saturday Santa invites you to brunch from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. The wide array of new menu items gives even the pickiest kids an option from eggs benedict to Belgium waffles. Adults can enjoy refreshing cocktails. Make sure to bring a camera for a photo with Santa.
The Family Dog
1402 North Highland Avenue, Atlanta
For the big kids at heart, watch "A Charlie Brown Christmas" at The Family Dog this Saturday night from 7 to 10 p.m. The bar is pouring beers from Boulevard Brewing, Mother Earth Brewing and Lone Rider Brewing and scooping Frozen Pints ice cream for their Bad Santa party. Santa photos and live music from The Dave Ellington Trip featuring Kayla Taylor round out the evening.
Bantam and Biddy
1544 Piedmont Road, Suite 103, Atlanta
On Sunday morning from 9 to 10:30 a.m. Santa is enjoying Bantam + Biddy's Southern brunch. A $25 menu includes a photo with the big guy. There's sure to be a breakfast spin on their chicken. Now a decision must be made: the chicken or the eggs?
One Eared Stag
1029 Edgewood Avenue NE, Atlanta
Just before Santa's busiest day, One Eared Stag hosts a multi-course Christmas dinner on Monday night. Leave the kids at home for this feast where chef Phalen teams up with Joe Schafer of King + Duke, Drew van Leuvan of Seven Lamps, and Doug Rouen of Holy Taco. This is a meal to expand your palate with duck liver, truffles and pickled roots. The six-course meal is $125 per person and reservations must be made in advance.

Norfolk McDonald's shooting
UPDATE: Police have charged 18-year-old Jaquan Lawrence, 21-year-old Jaquai Ried and 20-year-old Julius Parker, all of Norfolk, in connection with the drive-by shooting.
All three have been charged with malicious wounding, conspiracy to commit malicious wounding, use of a firearm, shooting into occupied dwelling and possession of stolen property.
NORFOLK-A man was wounded in a drive-by shooting in Norfolk.
Police were called to McDonald's at 1046 Campostella Road around 11:30 p.m. Wednesday.
According to Officer Chris Amos, the man was outside the restaurant when shots were fired from a passing car. That car was found about four hours later - in the 3700 block of Buckingham Avenue - and three people were taken into custody, he stated.
The victim was taken to the hospital for treatment and should recover, Amos said.
The names of those involved and a motive for the shooting weren't immediately available. No charges had been filed by mid-morning.
