GWF blog
Traduction à suivre
We are using this blog to record what happens at GWF in Chicago. Stay tuned for updates!
Saturday 21 July 2012 |
After returning home, Annastasia from Girl Scouts of Northern California wrote this post on her hopes for the future following her transformative experience at GWF.
In the year 2015, world-wide extreme poverty will be eradictated, environmental sustainability will be ensured, gender equality will be achieved, along with five other goals. Sounds impossible, right?? Here are all of the world's problems rolled up into one carpet. The Millennium Development Goals, set by the United Nations in 2000, shall be achieved.
Although we may not speak the same language, I am confident that we are united because we share a vision for a better planet.Annastasia from Northern California, USA |
In the year 2012, The Year of the Girl, over 600 Girl Guides and Girl Scouts from over 38 US states and 89 countires convened in Chicago, Illinois to brainstorm ways to create sustainable solutions to solve these problems and make our world a better place. This proved that GIRLS can lead our world.
As a second generation Chinese-American from the Bay Area, this life-changing experience of ethnic diversity really proved to me that together, united, we all have potential to work together. Only at this forum was I able to realize that many people around the world are not aware of the different ethnic Americans.
This is unquestionably the most diverse population I've ever surrounded myself with. I've expanded my family with so many new sisters.Annastasia from Northern California, USA |
This observation led me to formulate my take-action project: building a billingual-based reading and writing program where students self-author books. This educational partnership between recent immigrants to the Bay Area, who generally face cultural barriers that thus result in poverty, and second or third generation Americans who may not know their heritage, but generally do not face cultural barriers that result in poverty. This partnership will build confidence, with lasting relationships and connections, that will help American communities pull out of poverty.
I have met an incredible amount of Girl Guides and Girl Scouts from around the globe. This is unquestionably the most diverse population I've ever surrounded myself with. I've expanded my family with so many new sisters.
Although we may not speak the same language, I am confident that we are united because we share a vision for a better planet. We will meet the 2015 deadline.

Growing confidence to change the world
In this post, Lorraine Wong from Girl Scouts of Northern California reflects on how GWF surpassed her expectations, changed her perspectives and made her see the world differently.
I stepped into the San Francisco airport feigning independence, walking towards the plane that would take me to the Girls' World Forum that I'd simultaneously dreaded and looked forward to for months.
A girl who lived close to poverty described it as 'suffering', a piercing perspective that I'm still contemplating and trying to truly understand.Lorraine Wong from Northern California, USA |
At the welcome dinner, I sat awkwardly with girls I'd never met but with whom I'd been put in a patrol. As I walked around each table, everyone smiled and introduced herself while trading SWAPs, and I felt just a little bit less lonely.
Uniform day continued with an official air. During our breakout sessions, we first covered the definition of a take action project. Throughout the presentation, I reflected on the project I'd had in mind before the forum and couldn't match up my short-term goal with the need for sustained change. The second half of the day was spent discussing poverty in our local communities.
I'd originally thought we were going to listen to a presentation about poverty in developing nations, the type of introduction we've heard many times but which never give us the means to make a real difference ourselves. Instead, we girls had conversations with each other about the poverty within our own communities and together brainstormed what we could do to help our local people.
Each night before I went to sleep I did a silent jig in my room about the new world perspectives I'd heard and the confidence I felt growing in myself.Lorraine Wong from Northern California, USA |
Hearing about the same problem of poverty in so many socially and governmentally different countries broadened my mind to its definition. I'd first thought of poverty as simply a 'lack' of necessary materials, but another girl who lived much closer to poverty described it as 'suffering', a piercing perspective that I'm still contemplating and trying to truly understand.
From that day on, despite the heavy topics we discussed every day, each night before I went to sleep I did a silent jig in my room about the new world perspectives I'd heard and taken into myself, the new friends I'd made, and the confidence I felt growing in myself to make a real difference both locally and globally.
On Monday, I walked out of the hotel looking over my shoulder for one last glimpse of my newfound sisters, then turned forward with my dredged up confidence to change the world. And every night still, I do a little jig before I go to bed, excited about what I can and will do tomorrow.

The qualities of a leader
Alice Lin from Girl Scouts of Taiwan shares an example of an activity used at GWF to help girls develop their leadership skills and understanding.
We learned a lot from the various Toolkit Sessions today, especially the Leadership Toolkit Session.
The activity helped us to understand that to be a leader one must have a clear plan of what your next move will be.Alice Lin from Taiwan |
The "Little Mirror" activity, in which we split into pairs and one person mimicked the other's movements as a mirror reflection would, helped us understand that to be a leader one must have a clear plan of what your next move will be, and also try to alert your followers of it.
At the same time the leader also needs to be mindful of her followers, and know when to adjust her pace so that they can keep up. On the other hand, the follower has to pay close attention to what the leader is doing, and try to be able to keep up.
We also split into groups and drew pictures of what we think our ideal leaders should be like. This activity helped us further comprehend what qualities a leader should have. Overall, today's sessions really gave us a lot to think about, and new ideas on how to lead and guide our girls in our Member Organization.

Teaching practical skills to make a difference
Today the girls and chaperones traveled off-site to visit various projects around Chicago that demonstrated the concepts they had been learning about at GWF.
The participants split into smaller groups and visited a number of different locations. One of the most unusual projects was Journey World, a facility where girls get the chance to act as a model community and try out different roles, managing their own money and collaborating with other teams. In this post chaperones Bree and Eloise, both from the USA, give us their perspectives on Journey World.
Bree Ponce, Girl Scouts of Northern California
As I walked through the doors on the sixth floor of regular looking building, I saw sights that have become quite familiar from these past few days - the Chicago Tribune and the Art Institute of Chicago alongside a bank, fire station, snack shop and more. What was missing? The citizens, the workforce and the government. That was going to be us.
Every business started with a loan that accrued interest and every business set their own pricing. This was a real life situation. Many girls wrote their first checks and deposit slips.Bree Ponce from Northern California, USA |
Journey World provided each of us, delegate and chaperone alike, to work for a day with a team and an entire city complete with 14 shops. Most shops had a fairly complete staff - an owner, an accountant and specialists like sales executives and associates. The money was real as checks were printed, cashed and spent. Every business started with a loan that accrued interest and every business set their own pricing.
This was a real life situation. Many girls wrote their first checks and deposit slips while chaperones found out how their work style was the same in the real world - most of us working through our breaks with barely enough time to get food. This experience intentionally showed us how teaching skills can be an effective way to impact poverty and hunger.
I saw a deeper connection to the experience. We saw how we need to approach our upcoming Take Action projects - building a team, sharing resources, finding income and working together. Chaperones were able to practice girl empowerment and if we didn't, it would be a $4 fine and I made $12.80 for the day.
Thank you Journey World for impacting each of us and thus, impacting our communities world-wide.
Eloise Golden, Girl Scouts of Central California South
What a simply fantastic day for girls and chaperones and volunteers! We began our day reinforcing the concept of a Take Action Project where we learned that a true "Take Action Project" is one that determines the root cause of a problem and how to create a sustainable solution to that problem.
We discussed the difference between a great community service project and a Take Action Project. We also received tools and tips on how to best help our girls – the delegates – to be successful at whatever project they end up deciding to work on.
A true "Take Action Project" is one that determines the root cause of a problem and how to create a sustainable solution to that problem.Eloise Golden from Central California South, USA |
Then all the participants divided into three groups for the day. Our group went to a place called Journey World. Girls learned about how a small town is run – and this included having a mayor and a judge!
Each girl was assigned a job somewhere in the town – some worked in small business, for the city government, for the local radio/tv station, for an advertising agency, for a real estate firm and more. The girls were given pay checks from which they learned to create a personal bank account, how to write checks and how to create a deposit slip. They were permitted to write checks to purchase items for their personal use.
It was a great exercise on politics, city government, commerce, advertising, financial planning and more! The girls and adults enjoyed the experience.
The day ended with International Night which was completely amazing! 30 countries/states/groups entertained with song, dance and poetry. Each country also had table displays showing various items from their respective countries.
It was wonderful to see young women and adults interacting with people from all nations. There was so much fun and entertainment and enjoyment. There is certainly no doubt that today was a highlight of the whole Girls World Forum!

Together we can save our planet
Friday was zoo day! Everybody visited a local zoo to hear from the experts there about environmental issues.
The participants learned about different environmental challenges before coming together to discuss solutions. At the end of the day, some of the girls were chosen to plant a tree in commemoration of Girls' World Forum. The delegates from Italy and Venezuelan delegate Aymé Urdaneta have both provided accounts of the day's events.
Italian delegates
"Today we have visited the Chicago Brookfield Zoo and we have attended three different sessions about environmental sustainability.
"One of them was focused on climate changes and the different ways to reduce the problems related to this issue.
We think that is really important to sensitise people about environmental issues and possible solutions to make this world, our world, a better place."Italian delegates |
"For example, we have spoken about the deforestation, extinction of animal species, melting of glaciers and we have thought about different solutions such as turn off the water while you brush your teeth or other simple actions that you can do in your daily life. On the other hand we thought about a worldwide scale solutions such as how to reduce the emissions and how to improve renewable energies.
"In the second session we understood through the vision of some slides the importance to check the labels before buying a product and see if it comes from an eco-sustainable production. We have spoken about deforestation and its consequences on some animal species at risk such as big cats and orangutans.
"The last session was concentrated on water. We had an interesting and amazing experiment and after that we were all astonished to find out that less the 1% of the whole world water is available to drink. Furthermore we have discovered that the main water resources are lakes and rivers and we have also learnt something about water footprint.
"In conclusion we think that is really important to sensitise people about environmental issues and possible solutions to make this world, our world, a better place."
Aymé Urdaneta
"Desde muy temprano en la mañana empezamos el día, muchas todavía queriendo regresar a la cama por el sueño que siguen teniendo pero a la vez con ganas de ir al zoológico. Cuando ya íbamos camino al zoológico el sueño no podía con muchas y caían rendidas en las sillas, mientras que otras se mantenían entretenidas hablando.
Aprendimos bastante, desde cuánta agua es accesible para nosotros, el hábitat de los orangutanes, cómo usar el aceite de palma sostenible, los grandes gatos y mucho más.Aymé Urdaneta from Venezuela |
"En mi bus por lo menos todo estaba muy callado, hasta que el himno del panamericanismo se vuelve la canción del día y un tema de conversación.
"Cuando llegamos, en el zoológico ya nos estaban esperando para ir al show de delfines, aunque por el poco tiempo que teníamos no pudimos ver todo, al menos aprendimos dónde y cómo viven éstos animales.
"Tras pasa el día aprendimos bastante, desde cuánta agua es accesible para nosotros, el hábitat de los orangutanes, cómo usar el aceite de palma sostenible, los grandes gatos y mucho más, todo esto con una enseñanza de cómo podemos contribuir para ayudar a éstos animales y cómo conservar nuestro medio ambiente ya que 'juntas podemos salvar a nuestro planeta'.
"Después pudimos recorrer el zoológico con unas actividades que nos entregaron. Pasan las horas y el dolor de pies aumenta, aunque un disfrute del día entero te deja satisfecha, ya nos regresamos al Discovery Center justo cuando empieza a llover, pero cuando estamos dentro no perdemos tiempo, y las latinas nos empezamos a reunir y hacemos algo parecido a una sesión fotográfica, después de muchas fotos más tarde salimos corriendo bajo la lluvia hasta el bus para regresar al hotel.
"Grandioso día después de todo."

So many flags, so many girls...
On Thursday, the participants' eyes were opened to the size and diversity of our Movement as they began getting to know each other.
The Girls' World Forum programme began with a lively Opening Ceremony that featured a flag parade and a speech by the opening keynote speaker, young social entrepreneur Sejal Hathi. Tatiana Paola Cuadra Bermudez from the Asociacion de Guias y Scouts de Costa Rica has written for us about her experience of the day.
Sentí un gran orgullo al ver tantas banderas, tantas chicas…fue algo genial y saber que soy parte de algo tan grande a nivel mundial es excelente.Tatiana from Costa Rica |
"El día jueves fue genial, en mi caso tenía que entrar con la bandera de mi país, y sentí un gran orgullo al ver lo magnifico que puede llegar a ser todo esto, ver tantas banderas, tantas chicas…fue algo genial y saber que soy parte de algo tan grande a nivel mundial, ¡WOW! es excelente.
"Durante el resto del día fue impactante ver como muchos países aun en un mismo continente pueden tener tantas diferencias. Todo esto me puso a pensar…"yo no quiero simplemente saber, yo quiero actuar" -
"Sé que de este foro puedo sacar mucho más provecho, puedo aprender más , hacer amigas, conocer culturas…pero lo más importante sé que puedo cambiar el mundo!"

The first meeting
The first official day of Girls' World Forum saw girls and chaperones arriving in Chicago from places both far-flung and nearby.
A day of registration activities and introductions was topped off with a large dinner and some words of welcome from Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA) chief executive officer (CEO) Ana Maria Chávez. Here, Danish delegates Margrethe and Katrine tell us how the day looked from their perspective.
"After 14 hours in a very cold air plane we arrived to the hotel in the middle of Chicago. What we saw was, not only a very fancy hotel but also, about 500 Girl Guides and Girl Scouts from all over the world. It was fantastic! After having checked in we went around the city and saw the beautiful architecture and enjoyed the good and sunny weather. We also enjoyed our packed lunch at the beach.
As it gets later, the hotel becomes more and more quiet – All of the girls want to be ready for a brand new day tomorrow.Margrethe and Katrine, delegates from Denmark |
"After a stroll in the city we went back to the hotel to meet up all the other participants again. The big moment was about to arrive – we got to meet our roommates! They were all super nice, so it is going to be fun and exciting to be around them the next couple of days.
"At dinner was another place to meet all the other delegates. We were all sitting in the patrols we were going to work in through the forum. People are so nice and positive. SWAPS were the big deal today. All people were swapping things and telling about their culture and country – it is good we have many more days to go. The CEO of the Girl Scouts of the USA stopped by and gave all the participants some inspiration along the way and of course she also had some SWAPS for all of us.
"Many people have travelled a long way from a variety of time zones. As it gets later, the hotel becomes more and more quiet – All of the girls want to be ready for a brand new day tomorrow. It is going to be fun to get to know a lot more about the Millennium Development Goals."

Welcoming the world to Chicago
Girls' World Forum starts here! Today is registration day, when our 600 Girl Guides and Girl Scouts and chaperones will arrive in Chicago from all over the USA and the world.
WAGGGS is here with Girl Scouts of the USA (GSUSA), who is hosting this event, following the previous two Young Women's World Forums which were hosted by Girlguiding UK (2010) and the four WAGGGS World Centres (2011).
Today we've been meeting together and discussing our session plans. It's really been coming together today and the energy has been really great –I'm excited about what's going to happen over the next week.Tirian, facilitator |
A hive of activity has already been buzzing for days. The Girl Planning Team and the facilitators have been busy undergoing training and final preparations at the GSUSA Gathering Place in downtown Chicago.
Meanwhile, volunteers and staff alike are putting all their efforts into preparing the event venue and making sure all the participants can arrive safely and get all the assistance and equipment they need.
This enormous task ranges from distributing headsets for language interpretation and preparing delegate welcome bags to ensuring volunteers are present at Chicago's airports, to meet girls who are flying in and show them where to go.
By this evening the majority of participants will be able to come together in one room for dinner, exemplifying the WAGGGS spirit of international friendship and co-operation. GSUSA chief executive officer Ana Maria Chávez will be here to extend a welcome and mark the official beginning of this exciting event.
Justine Nkurunziza - 31 Juillet 2012 - 1.10PM (GMT)
Félicitations aux Girl Scouts des Etats - Unis et WAGGGS qui ont pu organiser un tel grand événnement et permis nos jeunes filles venus du monde entier de participer au Forum et de se faire des amitiés !!!

STUDENT AFFAIRS: The goal of my work in Student Affairs is to provide the utmost support to Einstein Medical Students throughout their basic science and clinical studies.
FUNGAL PATHOGENESIS: Since the late 1970s, the rates of many important human fungal infections have significantly increased. This dramatic rise is associated with the growing numbers of immunocompromised individuals, particularly patients receiving chemo- or immuno-therapy, recovering from invasive surgery, or individuals with HIV/AIDS. Despite the increased prevalence of mycotic diseases, there remains an enormous gap in knowledge and our current therapeutic armamentarium all too often fails to eradicate these insidious pathogens. The major focus of my laboratory is on the pathogenesis of human pathogenic fungi, especially Histoplasma capsulatum, Candida parapsilosis, and Cryptococcus neoformans.
NANOPARTICLE THERAPEUTICS FOR WOUND HEALING: In collaboration with Dr. Adam Friedman (Medicine [Dermatology] and Physiology & Biophysics) and Dr. Joel Friedman (Medicine and Physiology & Biophysics) we are exploring diverse applications of a novel, simple and inexpesive nanoparticle platform for drug delivery. We are exploring the therapeutic potential of nitric oxide delivered in sustained release by the nanoparticles for the treatment of diverse infectious diseases, including bacterial and fungal diseases. In collaboration with Dr. David Sharp (Physiology & Biophysics), we are characterizing the response of siRNA delivered by nanoparticle in conditions such as wounds and burns.

quote:In an interview with Good Morning America's Robin Roberts aired this morning, First Lady Michelle Obama recalled the tragic death of 15-year-old Hadiya Pendleton who was shot and killed in Chicago after performing during the President's Inauguration celebration in Washington D.C. "She was caught in the line of fire because some kids had some automatic weapons they didn't need," the First Lady explained. "I just don't want to keep disappointing our kids in this country. I want them to know that we put them first." Chicago police reported, however, that Pendleton was shot by a man who "opened fire with a handgun before fleeing in a waiting car."
quote:Michelle a liar just like her husband
quote: Michelle a liar just like her husband Meh, she could just be stupid.
quote:Michelle does not know the difference between an automatic weapon and a handgun.
quote:I want them to know that we put them first."
quote:professional dietitian Michele Obama
quote:A glock is just as automatic as a bushmaster AR15
quote:Michelle does not know the difference between an automatic weapon and a handgun. I seriously believe this. This is part of the problem with the gun control debate, ignorance. But the gun control advocates don't care. This is the issue du jour simply to score political points.
quote:then why the frick is she speaking of guns? that's probably worse
quote:There is no way this was just her being dumb. If she is going to specifically state that it was an automatic weapon, she would have to have read that it was an automatic weapon. She wouldn't just guess. And since it wasn't an automatic weapon, she's just straight-up lying.
quote:Carolyn McCarthy is perhaps the most vociferous gun-control advocate in all of Congress, and a few years ago, she exposed her abject gun ignorance in a Tucker Carlson interview, so it's not surprising that a non-politician like Michelle doesn't know these things.

Monday, January 28, 2013
NEW WILMINGTON, Pa. - Dr. Charlene Klassen Endrizzi, Westminster College professor of education, recently wrote four blog posts for classroom teachers on the Worlds of Words (W.O.W): International Collection of Children's and Adolescent Literature website.
Klassen Endrizzi's W.O.W. blogs provide an overview of Israeli children's books she discovered during her summertime travels to Western Galilee College, Akko, Israel. This brief investigation of Israeli children's books is one minor component of a larger, on-going college-wide partnership between Westminster College and Western Galilee College.
Over 30 faculty from both institutions have been engaged in various research collaborations in different subject areas for the past three years. Additionally each institution has hosted the Bridges International Faculty Workshop, providing opportunities for faculty members to engage in formal and informal discussions to enrich their teaching and research.
"During a three week summer visit to Akko, Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, Israeli colleagues Dr. Vered Vaknin-Nusbaum and Dr. Hagit Turjeman helped me comb various bookstores, outdoor book fairs, and museums, enabling me to interact with parents and children's librarians eager to reveal a wealth of books they regularly share with children. Miriam Roth, a beloved Israeli author, aptly described the children's books I discovered in this way: 'Excellent literature educates. What makes it educational is its deep human content offered in an excellent artistic form.'"
All four of these blog posts offer an initial glimpse into the richness of the Jewish culture through children's books:
- "Israeli Children's Books: A Parent Perspective on the Classics" explores the works of two renowned Israeli children's authors.
- "Israeli Children's Books: A Parent Perspective on the PJ Library (Sifriyat Pijama)" outlines a North American and Israeli Jewish family program offering free Hebrew children's books to preschool parents.
- "Israeli Children's Books: A Parent Perspective Beyond the Holocaust" emphasizes texts focused on dealing with common childhood experiences, not focused on one single horrific historical event so frequently explored in American Jewish children's books.
- "Israeli Children's Books: Forming a Bridge Between Cultures?" centers on one children's book authored by an 11-year-old Israeli. Gilad Shalit's parable, How the Shark and the Fish First Met, published when he became a prisoner of war, offers his hope for peaceful coexistence between Palestinians and Israelis caught in a seemingly endless conflict.

Klassen Endrizzi, who serves as Westminster's faculty development officer, joined the faculty in 1993. She earned undergraduate and master's degrees from Fresno Pacific College and Ph.D. from the University of Arizona. She is the author of Becoming Teammates: Teachers and Families as Literacy Partners (NCTE, 2008).

Multiplication Quick Links
Have Fun with Multiplication
Help your child learn to love multiplication by integrating fun multiplication practice into your daily routines. Try these exercises to have fun with your child while practicing multiplication at the same time:
- Exercise skip counting using everyday objects to practice the multiplication tables. Start skipping two or three steps when you go upstairs with your child and count the number of stairs by twos and threes. Or, challenge your child to count the number of fingers on the people sitting at the dinner table. When she's done, see if she can count fingers by fives and tens! This is a great way to encourage math practice away from math worksheets for kids.
- Try daily multiplication riddles to get your child to think about math in a fun way even when he's not working on multiplication practice worksheets. Try this one to start, "If I give you one candy on Monday, and three times as many candies on Tuesday, and three times the number of Tuesday candies on Wednesday, and so on, how many candies will you have all together on Friday?"
- Have your child practice multiplication when you're looking at your family calendar. Try asking, "If there are three weeks until summer break, and seven days in each week, how many days are there until summer break?" Some kids may even enjoy counting down to a special event on the calendar after they've figured out the answer. There are some fun math worksheets with make-your-own-calendar templates that work perfectly for this.
- Don't forget to let your child work through math problems with fun math multiplication worksheets for kids. Using math multiplication worksheets lets your child practice the subject at his own pace.

This is something that we just can't seem to get to work, because of paypal's stupid rules (if anyone has a better means of payment, please let me and all the vendors and craftsmen know!..anyways...)
However, the Haslinger passaround knife is back in my hands, in relatively good shape. One "H" pin is chipped, and there's typical wear that can be associated with lots of use, over a year. All in all, though, it's in great shape!
Thomas was very, very grateful for the great comments some of you sent and posted. He figured out areas that need some tweaking and his newest work will show these changes (blade height/knuckle clearance, thinness behind the edge). As a little thank you, he wants the knife to be "sold", with every penny going to KKF, to keep it going strong! However, he also wants it to go to someone who could really use the knife. Either someone who can't afford to treat himself, or an apprentice/young chef, just starting out.
Originally, we wanted a raffle for the knife, and the winner got to choose who gets the prize. However, the winner must PIF it to a worthy recipient. This all seemed great, until we realized that paypal won't allow raffles, etc, etc.
Does anyone have a good idea of how we can raise the appropriate funds, and still PIF this to someone who deserves it? If so, I'm all ears!
Essentially, all we want is this knife to raise money for the forum we all love, as a community, and then get the knife to someone worthy of such a generous gift.
Thanks, everyone!

Home Education Coordinator Ohio Department of Education (P) 877-644-6338 firstname.lastname@example.com
In Ohio, parents interested in educating his or her child at home may do so by notifying their local school district superintendent and meeting the requirements of Ohio law to home school. If requirements are met, the district superintendent releases the student from required compulsory school attendance. This excuses the student and family from school attendance requirements in state law.
Parents or guardians who decide to home school their daughter or son are completely responsible for choosing the curriculum and course of study. They select the curriculum and educational materials and take responsibility for educating their child. There is no state financial assistance for families who choose this option. Visit our Frequently Asked Questions.
For a child who is not a student in a public school of the school district, the district superintendent determines the appropriate grade level for a child. Many parents think that on-line schools fall into the category of home schooling, this is NOT true. Most on-line schools are considered Community/Chartered schools, these are still public schools.
Home-schooling parents may decide to enroll their child back into a public school where the family lives. The superintendent of the district the family resides in will determine the appropriate grade level of the child. The superintendent also evaluates which credits MAY be applied toward the district's requirements for graduation.
Sports and Other Activities
Recent legislation allows home-school students the opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities in public schools. An "extracurricular activity" is a pupil activity program that is run by a school or school district and is not included in a graded course of study. Activities include any offered at the school that the student would attend if enrolled in the public school district the family resides. If the school district does not offer a particular activity, then the student may request to participate in another district's program. The superintendent of the other school district may choose to allow the student to participate as an out-of-district student.
Home-educated students must meet the same nonacademic and financial requirements as any other student participating in the activity. Fees and ability in sports, where there are cuts, apply.
EdChoice Scholarships
An EdChoice Scholarship allows students who are eligible to obtain a scholarship to attend a nonpublic school participating in the EdChoice program. Eligibility is based upon the performance of the public school building to which the student would be assigned or low income. EdChoice Scholarships are available to eligible home-schooled students who wish to enroll in a participating nonpublic school. More information here.
Ohio High School Diploma
Home-schooled students do not receive an Ohio high school diploma recognized by the State Board of Education. When pursuing employment or advanced education, home-schooled students may need to complete the GED to show equivalence to a state recognized high school diploma.

Hey everyone... I'm thinking of actually going to New Orleans for the superbowl this weekend, I'm sure I can land some tickets for about $2,000 a piece. If you are in and are interested in goin with me then I have mapped out the whole agenda… Here it is; it''s gonna be a great time!
Leave my place Saturday arrive at the airport around 2:00pm, wait in line for security for about 2 hours. Go through a full body molestation session (or a radiation scanner; your choice) . Hang around the airport for another 2 hours until the flight arrives on time. If the flight is late (most likely due to weather) sit around for another 2 hours. By some coffees from starbucks at a marked up price of $5 apiece and bottled water at $4 apiece. While we are waiting around have TSA agents perform litmus tests on our drinks since they may contain explosive material.
Finally, we will board the plane. After sitting on the tarmac for another 2 hours, hit a connecting flight in Atlanta which will prob take another 2 hours. Finally arrive in New Orleans airport, spent $55 on a 1 hour cab ride to our hotel. Arrive at the hotel at 1am. Take a nice hot shower to wash off the TSA agents hand contamination on our private parts and be settled by 2am.
Go to sleep and wake up after a nice 6 hours around 8am. Walk around the densely mobbed city and wait in lines for a marked up $20 per person New Orleans breakfast. Walk around the city until noon buying souvenirs of 25 cent voodoo dolls for $15. Eat lunch for $30. Walk around the mobbed city for another hour and then start to get ready for the game.
Leave the hotel around 4pm. Take a $35 cab ride to the superdome which will take about 30 minutes to get within 5 miles of the stadium. Spend another $50 on the cab ride attempting to get within 2 miles of the stadium. After another hour (and when within 3 miles of the stadium) realize attempts to get any closer is futile. Hand the $85 over to the cabby in frustration. Begin a 30 minute trek to the super dome.
Arrive at the superdome at 6pm. Lines will be pretty packed since security will be performing x-rays and using metal detectors on each person entering the stadium. After 30 minutes of waiting in line, finally get to the entrance. Once again; get molested by TSA agents who should be guarding against transportation threats… but somehow have ended up frisking patrons at a football game. Be asked to throw out multiple items from your bag, and from your pockets, or else be fined and asked to leave the stadium.
It is now 6:30 and we will finally be in the stadium but have missed the opening ceremonies and the kickoff. Even though we will be anxious to get to our seats we will be too hungry and will need to get some food. After waiting in a food line for 30 minutes, buy a hot dog, a soft pretzel and a beer for $45. Make a 10 minute trek to our seats without spilling our beer, dropping our food or being hassled by security. Finally arrive at our seats to witness the remaining 2 minutes of the 1st half.
Spend the next hour watching a Beyonce performance which is a thinly veiled satanic ritual.
The 2nd half will begin. After watching some good football for about an hour and a half; realize that if we don't leave early we will be caught in a whirlwind of traffic. Leave with 10 minutes left in the game; walk for a good mile in order to get past all security road blocks; hail a cab and make our way back to the hotel for another $50
Chill at the hotel bar for the next hour throwing back drinks and getting drunk for $100.
Go to bed; wake up hungover at 5am to assure getting to the airport by 9am and having a fun day of waiting in long lines, more molestations by the TSA, and being victims of more extortion by the aiport
Arrive home about 12am on Monday and reminisce about the awesome time we had at the superbowl

Political Science is a discipline that focuses on the nature of "power" – whether this power is held by an individual or a group, elected officials or monarchs, government agencies or protestors.
Political Science inquiry critically examines the structures and functions of governments, elections, political parties, interest groups, social movements and more. Political Scientists study both the process of politics and public policies enacted by governments; they compare across the world, and look at the same questions in the smallest hamlet. While modern Political Science is only about 100 years old, philosophers and academics have studied these questions for millennia. Plato, arguably, was the "first" Political Scientist when he pondered the nature of justice almost 5,000 years ago. Contemporary Political Science in the United States is divided into several subfields: Political Theory, Comparative Politics, International Relations, American Government and Politics, Public Policy and Public Administration, and Public Law. Political Science is grounded in the study of the traditional liberal arts. The traditional liberal arts are not focused on preparing individuals for a particular profession, but focus preparing students to think critically, to express themselves effectively orally and in writing, to examine their own lives in terms of their own ethical principles and contribute meaningfully to society as citizens. Undergraduate study of Political Science is excellent preparation for careers in education, government service, campaigns, lobbying, journalism, foreign service, military service, law, labor unions, business and industry. The Political Science degree is also excellent preparation for advanced study in law, international affairs, international relations, public administration, public policy, public affairs, urban affairs, and more.
The Political Science department is currently accepting applications for the Joe B. Lanford Scholarship, the William J. Blough Undergraduate Essay Contest, and the Mary Jeanne Byrd Award. If you have any questions, contact Elizabeth Oswald, the departmental program assistant, at firstname.lastname@example.com or 803/323-2209.

Endocervical culture is a laboratory test that helps identify infection in the female genital tract.
Vaginal culture; Female genital tract culture; Culture - cervix
During a vaginal examination, the health care provider uses a swab to take samples of mucus and cells from the endocervix. This is the area around the opening of the uterus. The samples are sent to a lab. There, they are placed in a special dish (culture). They are then watched to see if bacteria, virus, or fungus grow. Further tests may be done to identify the specific organism and determine the best treatment.
In the two days before the procedure:
You will feel some pressure from the speculum. This is an instrument inserted into the vagina to hold the area open so that the health care provider can view the cervix and collect the samples. There may be a slight cramping when the swab touches the cervix.
The test may be done to determine the cause of vaginitis , pelvic pain, an unusual vaginal discharge , or other signs of infection.
Organisms that are usually present in the vagina are there in the expected amounts.
Abnormal results indicate the presence of an infection in the genital tract or urinary tract in women, such as:

2010 Lexus HS 250h
Product Review
About GHRI Ratings
XGood Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.
Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.
Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.
The 2010 Lexus HS 250h is a comfortable luxury sedan with superb gas mileage, if you have the budget to indulge. While omitting many of the features can make the price more manageable, most options really add to the essence of the Lexus driving experience, especially the tech/navigation package, which we strongly recommend. The HS is positively the more comfortable of the two Lexus hybrids, but admittedly, a little less exhilarating.
The HS 250h felt more like a standard luxury car to us than our other Lexus Hybrid (the CT 200h), offering a softer, more comfortable suspension. This did detract however, from the fun-to-drive feeling significantly, as the HS 250H didn't boast the same nimble handling. Toyota's near-perfect hybrid system continued to wow us with its fluidity; the vehicle's practically silent transitions go unnoticed as the system elegantly balances the gas and electric power. Drivers can customize their driving experience by switching between power and eco modes. Despite its less-than-sporty feel, the HS 250h was quick, thanks to a larger motor than it's CT counterpart.
Our test Lexus came decked out with optional electronic features like a semi-transparent heads-up display that sits eye level suspended in the front windshield, and displays speed, as well as other steering-wheel mounted options so you don't need to look down. Optional (in the tech package) is front sonar collision warning, and adaptive cruise control. Similar to the Lexus CT 200h, the HS 250h tech package includes a fold-away LCD screen, which takes commands via a handy and intuitive haptic-feedback control joystick. Other notable features included a driver-position memory system, which remembers individual driver position settings,and automatically downward facing mirrors that reposition themselves when you're backing up. When it came to features, Lexus didn't leave out a single detail. We found ourselves comfortably tucked away no matter what seat we were in, but, like with the Toyota Corolla, there was somewhat less interior space than we expected given the larger exterior.

Electromyography (EMG) is a test that checks the health of the muscles and the nerves that control the muscles.
EMG; Myogram; Electromyogram
The health care provider will insert a very thin needle electrode through the skin into the muscle. The electrode on the needle picks up the electrical activity given off by your muscles. This activity appears on a nearby monitor, and may be heard through a speaker.
After placement of the electrodes, you may be asked to contract the muscle. For example, by bending your arm. The electrical activity seen on the monitor provides information about your muscle's ability to respond when the nerves to your muscles are stimulated.
A nerve conduction velocity test is almost always performed during the same visit as an EMG.
No special preparation is usually necessary. Avoid using any creams or lotions on the day of the test.
Body temperature can affect the results of this test. If it is extremely cold outside, wait in a warm room for a while before the test is performed.
If you are taking blood thinners or anticoagulants, inform the person performing the test before it is done.
You may feel some pain or discomfort when the needles are inserted. But most people are able to complete the test without problems.
Afterward, the muscle may feel tender or bruised for a few days.
EMG is most often used when a person has symptoms of weakness, pain, or abnormal sensation. It can help tell the difference between muscle weakness caused by the injury of a nerve attached to a muscle, and weakness due to nervous system disorders, such as muscle diseases.
There is normally very little electrical activity in a muscle while at rest. Inserting the needles can cause some electrical activity, but once the muscles quiet down, there should be little electrical activity detected.
When you flex a muscle, activity begins to appear. As you contract your muscle more, the electrical activity increases and a pattern can be seen. This pattern helps your doctor determine if the muscle is responding as it should.
An EMG can detect problems with your muscles during rest or activity. Disorders or conditions that cause abnormal results include the following:

The United States and the Soviet Union were deeply embroiled in a space race.

Cubs Fanfest
On a picture perfect day in Cooperstown, several hundred Cubs fans gathered for a Cubs Fanfest on the back lawn of the Fenimore Art Museum, overlooking Otsego Lake. Owner Tom Ricketts and the Cubs sponsored the event as a celebration of the life and career of Ron Santo, the team's newest representative in the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum.
The master of ceremonies was Cubs broadcaster Pat Hughes, who teamed with Santo to broadcast the Cubs for 15 seasons, 1996 to 2010. Hughes led several panel discussions, telling stories, interviewing panelists, and soliciting questions, recollections and Santo stories from the audience, which was clad in every imaginable item of Cub related clothing.
The first panel featured Hall of Famers Ernie Banks and Fergie Jenkins, whom Hughes introduced as 'The greatest pitcher in Cubs history." Ernie Banks told a poignant story of Ron Santo accepting Mrs. Banks' invitation to Ernie's birthday party. According to Banks, Santo was the first white teammate who journeyed to the south side of Chicago to join in such a celebration."
The second panel featured Ron Santo's three children, Ron Santo Jr., Linda Santo, and Jeff Santo. The third panel featured Santo teammates Glenn Beckert and Randy Hundley.
Throughout the event, Hughes repeatedly turned the microphone over to the audience for Santo stories. One young man told of the time he was 13 years old, and approached Santo in a hotel lobby in San Diego hoping for an autograph. Santo spent more than a half hour talking baseball with the boy and his family. The story was greeted by a murmur of recognition from the crowd, used to hearing about Santo's love for life and baseball and especially, for Cubs fans.
Proceeds from the party's ten-dollar admission charge were split between the Cubs charities and the Hall of Fame. Attendees received a copy of a book on Santo, and were treated to a fabulous buffet which covered all the bases. But the real treat was seeing so many Cubs stars reminisce about Santo, whose special relationship with Cubs fans pervaded the atmosphere.

Hey Tim… Great piece! Keep up the great work! ED SCHMER
Santo replaced my original all-time favorite Cubs 3rd sacker… Stan Hack. I was at Wrigley on Stan Hack Day in the late 40s. They gave him a new purple sedan! Each new generation produces fan favorite special players. Some are more well known then others.
My dad got to see the 1908 Cubs… he used to pick up empty soda and beer bottles to get in free. His favorite ball player was Harry Steinfeldt, the 3rd baseman in the Tinker,to Evers to Chance era. However, Santo was playing in the TV era. You got to see great players weekly, and in Chicago all week long. At least people all over got to see him play, and he ranked with the best who played 3rd base. I'm glad that the Santo family was able to be there, and only disapponted that Ron was not inducted sooner.

True Focus of Winter Olympics: Corruption or Medals?
Seven years ago, Russian President Vladimir Putin traveled to Guatemala City, Guatemala in an effort to win the bid of hosting the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia. His proposal of $12 billion dwarfed that of finalists, South Korea and Austria. It was his attempt to show the world a new Russia and that these games were to be the platform of the economic and geopolitical revival of his country.

Actress Lily James, who plays Ella in the new Disney movie, says it's her real waist in the iconic dress.
Tune in on March 3 at 9:15pmET/6:15pmPT for the #YahooLive show! When she was still in high school, singer/songwriter Meghan Trainor landed a deal with a Nashville music publishing company and started writing songs for artists from all corners of the music world. A multi-instrumentalist who put out three albums on her own by the age of 17, the 20-year-old Massachusetts native has penned tracks for everyone from Grammy-winning country superstars Rascal Flatts and Grammy-nominated country artist Hunter Hayes to reggae/rock/R&B group Common Kings and Hot Chelle Rae singer Ryan Follesé. A couple years into her publishing deal, Meghan came up with "All About That Bass," a super-playful but unapologetic self-empowerment anthem for ladies who don't fit the standard beauty ideal. The song is now her debut single as an artist for Epic Records. With songs addressing everything from drunk-texting and the walk of shame to dating anxiety and post-breakup heartache, there's no shortage of "All About That Bass"-style honesty on Meghan's debut album.

I bought this to complement a bridal ornament set I purchased. The personalization is perfect. I'm a bit disappointed that the ornament is not European-made. However, it is full if sparkle and the newlyweds will be reminded of their amazing wedding day.

Unfortunately, I feel a need to speak about this subject though because their is a race war and there always will be. Currently, there is a race that hates me for being white. In fact there are several. In addition, there are several whole countries of people that not only hate me for being white, they hate me for being American. So pardon us if we take a moment to be proud. There is currently more racism and hatred directed at white Americans than ever before in our history and I'll be damned if I don't stop once in a while and at least add my two cents. Whomever you are, and where ever you live, know that no matter how PC you think you are, you are a traitor for every argument you raise against white America. If you are black, then just stop. You of all people know the pangs of discrimination for an individual trying to make a point. Nice double standard! So does this abuse qualify me for a United White College Fund yet? How about an ACORN loan? No? And exactly why not? One last thing, whatever your rebuttal, just remember that you live very safely right now. When it falls, and it will...your attitude and what you THINK you know about the nature of people will change so dramatically.
