"Web 3.0 is knocking, and you will never guess who is opening the door: workflow software". Many are pushing for this thing called "The Semantic Web" where an app will be able to understand user interaction in such a way that it will not only return directly relevant results (for example, a search for "showtimes 84003" returning what time movies are playing at the Cinemark in American Fork, Utah) but also indirectly relevant results such as places for dinner that are nearby because you are probably going on a date, or gas stations en route because the app knows your car is out of gas. These concepts are exciting, innovative, and forward thinking, but there is a critical evolutionary step missing between the "The Social Web" and "The Semantic Web": being able to take one object, and pass it through multiple services to accomplish a task.

Journey begins to preserve Hampshire's historic World War I warship
Wednesday, 24 July 2013
The journey will begin later this month towards preserving one of only two British First World War warships to survive the war and ravages of time, when Hampshire County Council considers the necessary steps to secure the future of the HMS Monitor (also known as Minerva) M33.
The historic M33 coastal bombardment vessel is of huge national importance, having been launched in 1915 and features in the National Register of Historic Ships. She served in the Dardanelles Campaign between 1915 and 1918, including providing support for the Gallipoli Campaign during 1915. In 1919 she was refitted and returned to action in the Russian Civil War, where she covered the withdrawal of Allied and White Russian troops from North Russia during the Dvina River Campaign. Following her return from Russia, she spent the rest of her active life in Portsmouth Harbour.
The vessel was acquired by the County Council's museums service in 1990 in order to preserve her heritage for the county and the nation, and she is currently berthed near the new Mary Rose Museum and Nelson's flagship HMS Victory in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. While she can be viewed from the dockside, it is not possible for the vessel to be boarded by visitors and the County Council is now working in partnership with the National Museum of the Royal Navy to provide public access to the vessel at the Historic Dockyard and tell its internationally significant history in 2015, the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli Campaign.
Hampshire County Council Executive Member for Culture, Recreation and Countryside, Councillor Keith Chapman will be asked at his Decision Day (31 July 2013) to approve the next steps towards safeguarding the warship's future which will also provide visitors with greater access to climb aboard and enjoy an improved experience of the vessel.
To support the preservation work needed to bring the M33 back to life, the County Council has set aside £250,000 associated with the sale of the former Treadgolds buildings in Portsmouth, a property that is surplus to its needs. Separately, £1.799million is being sought from the Heritage Lottery Fund, and it is also being proposed that the National Museum of the Royal Navy's fundraising team target wider funding to source the remaining £200,000, which would be underwritten by the County Council. The partnership with the National Museum of the Royal Navy is also developing arrangements that would see them take over ownership of the M33 by 2015.
Councillor Chapman said: "HMS Monitor M33 is a rare piece of national World War I heritage which without the foresight of the County Council could have been lost forever. Most significantly, she served at Gallipoli in 1915 -16 supporting troop landings and evacuations during that military Campaign in which British and Commonwealth troops served. If the bid for Lottery funding is successful, then the vessel will become another highly popular public attraction at Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard. The national significance of the M33, combined with the proximity of the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli Campaign and the 1914 -18 Great War, gives us the opportunity to work in partnership with the National Museum of the Royal Navy towards preserving this hugely important piece of the nation's history here in Hampshire."
Professor Dominic Tweddle, from the National Museum of the Royal Navy, said "M33 is one of the rare jewels of World War I that serve to remind us of the sacrifice made at Gallipoli, particularly by the ANZACs. We are delighted to be involved with Hampshire County Council in working to save her."

There's even laptop lending program for students in need. It's awesome.
Bryn Mawr is probably one of the most diverse college around. International students made up of about 25% of the student population.
Greek Life:
We have no Greek Life and we are a perfect community the way we are
There's not enough night life around. But we study a lot anyway.
Campus Housing:
The buildings sure are mostly pretty old but that what makes living in these dorms so special. It also doesn't mean that the facility is bad. It looks old outside but totally modern inside. Residential life is great with the Honor Code and residential life assistants too.
The school did a great job processing financial aid. Only thing is that no one likes loan, otherwise I would have rated best!
There are certainly many athletes around but the school is so diverse and academia is such a big part in every student's life that athletic is just one of those things happen on campus.
Campus Strictness:
I feel very comfortable with the policy and strictness. I really think they are strict on things that are important to the community and lenient on area where students can take care of themselves.
Health & Safety:
It's really safe on campus and even in town. I feel safe even when walking alone on an empty street at night.
I would be much happier if the winter here is just one month shorter than it usually is. Snow in March is ridiculous! Other than that, autumn foliage and even the first snow in November/December is beautiful.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are only a few restaurants around but they offer a variety of food from Japanese to Mexican to Indian. It is pretty costly to dine out though because there's not a lot of competition between the restaurant they usually charge pretty high.
Local Atmosphere:
It is a very nice and beautiful town to live in but there isn't a whole lot of thing to do around the town accept for grocery shopping, a few restaurants and Starbucks. Good thing is Philly is only 25 minutes train away so there's always a getaway option.
Health & Safety:
The health center is a joke.. Campus crime is not too bad, maybe a stolen laptop here or there when left unwatched in the library.
Classes are hard! I am an English major and challenged every day. Workload is A LOT! Don't expect to always finish all of your homework.
The train will be your savior, and the blue bus will get you around between the three campuses.
Off-Campus Housing:
A lot of the apartment buildings around Bryn Mawr say that they don't allow college students, but there are a lot of apartments/houses to rent in Bryn Mawr/Haverford/Swarthmore/all around these areas, so don't worry.
Drug Safety:
Weed is very noticeable on campus, people will smoke in the dorms. Other than that, you won't hear too much about other drugs unless you are actively looking for it yourself (which if you are, it's mostly pretty easy to find, whatever it is you're looking for). Alcohol is a big thing at Bryn Mawr, especially during Traditions! If you don't drink, IT IS OKAY! We will still love you!
You have to hound the people in the financial aid office to make sure it's all done correctly.
Campus Strictness:
There is a lot of leniency with drugs/alcohol, you won't get in trouble unless you make it very obvious that you are doing something you should not be doing! Campus is very strict on parking, you will get so many parking tickets you will scream if you don't pay attention to where to park. Honor code is held very highly at Bryn Mawr, it may sound crazy, but one day you too will be strict about the honor code!
Campus Housing:
The rooms may be a little small when you're an underclassmen, but it gets better! The least strict of housing is Radnor and the most strict is Brecon.
If you want to be a part of a sport and make it a large part of your life, you can easily do that!
Greek Life:
We don't have Greek life and we tend to look at other Greek life (such as swarthmore/haverford) as non-progressive, sexist boys.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are some great choices along Lancaster, but you'll eventually get sick of the same things; you can take the train to venture even further though!
The school boasts a great amount of diversity in the student body, yet the faculty is not as diverse; this has been addressed recently though and the school is looking for more diverse professors to bring to Bryn Mawr.
{{review.SectionLabel}} at {{review.EntityName}}:
Sorry, there are no reviews.
Written by Kaitlin Menza
Like any highly-rated liberal arts college, Bryn Mawr provides a stellar education to a vibrant student body on a campus so beautiful that sometimes it looks surreal. During the school year, especially in the dead of winter, it is easy to overlook these tremendous offerings and instead focus on the massive amount of work, as it contrasts to what can seem like a dearth of social opportunities. These are the times where some freshmen consider transferring.
Traditions help lighten the mood on campus, and despite what seems to be stress oozing out of every pore, most students manage to do a lot more than just handle their school work-though everyone agrees that academics is a priority. In the end, students are most proud of their academic work, but also fond of the school and experiences that they had here. Mawrters come to Bryn Mawr to benefit from the faculty and coursework the school is known for. Some women find the lack of boys on campus difficult to adjust to, or they find the general smallness of the campus undesirable, but in the end, most stay for the same reason they came: academics. When it's over, few look back on the decision with regret.

Tale of the tape
Divisional Round: Baltimore Ravens At Denver Broncos
|Joe Flacco had an ordinary year, but he led the Ravens to a fairly convincing win over the Colts in the Wild-Card game. Flacco's numbers were not overwhelming – he was 12-of-23 for 282 yards with two TDs and no interceptions – but he ran the offense with confidence. He'll have to be at his best against a smart and aggressive Denver defense.
|The Broncos got far more than they ever could have hoped to get from Peyton Manning this season. He's in a neck-and-neck battle with Adrian Peterson for the MVP award this season. Manning completed 68.6 percent of his passes, threw for 4,659 yards and had a 37-11 TD-to-interception ratio. While it won't come easy against the Ravens defense, Manning should have an advantage in this game.
|The Ravens can't put it all on Flacco and that's the last thing head coach John Harbaugh wants to do. While he was not at his best against the Colts, the Ravens will give the ball to Ray Rice. He is a gritty and tough competitor who can explode once he gets into the open field. Anquan Boldin can make the tough catches on third downs and tight end Dennis Pitta (7 TDs) is a solid red zone target.
|The Broncos got a lift from running back Knowshon Moreno once Willis McGahee went down with a knee injury. Moreno can get through the small cracks provided by the offensive line and is tough to bring down. Demaryius Thomas is a fast downfield target who has improved dramatically while playing with Manning. Decker will catch everything that comes his way.
|The Ravens did not have the kind of consistency on defense that fans are used to seeing from them, but they were at their best in the Wild-Card win over the Colts, keeping Andrew Luck & Co. out of the endzone. The Ravens were 17th in total defense and they got a lift from the return of middle linebacker Ray Lewis. Strong safety Bernard Pollard is the best tackler on the team.
|The Broncos are a nasty, hard-hitting and aggressive defensive team. The Broncos were second overall on defense and it's hard to find a more effective defensive player than pass rushing linebacker Von Miller. He had 18.5 sacks during the regular season. Champ Bailey is still one of the best cover men in the league. He had 66 tackles and 11 passes defensed.
|The Ravens have perhaps the best special teams play in the league. Jacoby Jones is an outstanding return specialist who can return punts and kickoffs the distance. Placekicker Justin Tucker has had a remarkable year, making 30-of-33 FG attempts, including 4-of-4 from 50 yards and beyond.
|Special Teams
|The Broncos had an advantage on opponents on punt and kickoff returns. Matt Prater was solid but not spectacular as a placekicker, making 26-of-32 FG attempts. Britton Colquitt averaged 46.3 yards per punt and he dropped 27 of 67 punts inside the opponents' 20.

Rubens Peale's exuberant arrangement of cut flowers displays the botanical bounty he culled from his greenhouse and garden between January 7 and December 23, 1856. Observed from nature but infused with imagination and energy, this is one of his most accomplished works.
Peale made a career of managing his family's museums in Philadelphia, Baltimore, and New York, but during the last decade of his life he merged his love of gardening with his innate, although largely untutored, gift for bold artistic expression. Many of his pictures were gifts for family and friends and he dedicated this work to his son, Charles Willson Peale, the namesake of his famous grandfather.

Dan attended the 2013 Jameson Empire Awards, where he was presented with the Hero award, which was presented to him by The Woman in Black director James Watkins. The Woman in Black won the award for Best Horror.
Empire's online report of Dan accepting the Hero award is below.
James Watkins, who we saw just a while ago accepting his own award for The Woman In Black, is back onstage to present the Empire Hero award, which recognises someone who we just think is generally pretty ace. Watkins says, "He deserves it for being utterly fearless" for taking the most scrutinised piece of casting of our time in Harry Potter and buy xenical in the uk then delivering over a decade and ten films; tackling the usefull link West End stage, "balls out, literally" at 17 in Equus, and doing 345 straight performances on Broadway singing and dancing. "This desire to take risks is why I cast him in Woman In Black," explains Watkins.
Yes, this year's recipient is DANIEL RADCLIFFE, who left the Boy Who Lived behind and has already shown some serious range to cheapest viagra next day delivery uk his work, inbetween bouncing with that insane energy he has. "It's always embarrassing to see myself, and thanks for the awws at the beginning. Empire's always been unpatronising of buy chinese herbal cialis Potter and myself, so thanks for that." He thanks the directors who are willing to take a chance on him and see him as something other than Potter, and is get online viagra generally, as ever, charming and friendly. Some day he's going to kick a puppy, and we're going to be there to see it, dagnabbit.
A video of Dan accepting his award is available here.
After walking the red carpet, Dan spoke to Empire about his upcoming films and his casting in Frankenstein, discussing what drew him to the role.
Dan recently spoke to Jill Lawless of The Independent about his upcoming play, and his films The F Word and Horns.
Speaking about Cripple and the http://www.uap.edu.py/viagra-pfizer-online play's writer, Martin McDonagh, Dan said, "He walks that line between tragedy and comedy so brilliantly. I think one of the hilarious things about this play is, by our standards today, how politically incorrect it is."
Dan is currently writing a screenplay, and told Lawless that, "it's just so dark, and I think it's funny, but I'm not sure if anybody else ever would. I aspire to be a poor man's Martin McDonagh."
Dan says that his romantic comedy The F Word is "very funny, very sweet but also very smart," and that whilst he doesn't want to say he's playing himself, he does play a character that's a "fairly high-anxiety, slight hyperactive guy."
He describes Horns as "a love story, it's a revenge movie, it's a horror movie in parts — it's going to be crazy."
For more from the interview, please visit The Independent.
On the 5th of March, Dan attended the Get Connected Annual Charity Auction and dinner, held at the UnderGlobe, London. Dan is the Best Friend of the charity, which provides free and confidential support and advice to under 25′s by phone, text, email, and webchat. The event raised a fantastic £182,500, which will be used to fund the Get Connected helpline.

Then comes one of Rameau's masterpieces, La poule, with the obsessive clucking of the hen (Rameau writes 'co co co co co coco dai' under the opening notes). It is pure drama, and, as Cuthbert Girdlestone wrote in his 1957 biography of the composer, 'has the intensity and singlemindedness of a Racine tragedy, with alternations of hope and despair'. Rameau marks these contrasts with the words fort et doux. It is possible that the first sketches for this piece go back to his early days in Paris when the Jesuit Père Castel discussed with him the bird songs noted in the writings of Athanasius Kircher (1650) and aroused his feelings for depicting nature. The five repeated notes of the theme become hammered-out chords in the right hand towards the end, with the arpeggios transferred to the bass. Observing all of Rameau's ornamentation requires some quick fingerwork.
The next movement of the suite, Les triolets, calms us down with its poetic melancholy and tenderness. Rameau states in his preface to this collection that it should not be taken fast. It ends with a 'petite reprise'—a written-out echo of the last few bars. A triolet was a medieval verse form that became popular again in the seventeenth century.
On 10 September 1725 Rameau attended a performance by two Louisiana Indians at one of the theatres of the Fair. Their dancing must have made an impression on him, because he characterized them in the next piece, Les sauvages. As a Canadian I can't help imagining the colourful displays of our Canadian native people, especially when playing the descending repeated notes of the theme. It became one of Rameau's most popular works, and he later included it in his opera-ballet Les Indes galantes.
The last two pieces of the suite are also gems. Rameau talks at great length of L'enharmonique in the preface to this collection. An enharmonic change is when, for example, a C sharp becomes a D flat (on the keyboard the same note), which indeed happens in the twelfth bar of the second section. An expressive pause marks the point which, to listeners of Rameau's day, would have been something quite extraordinary. Rameau states:
The effect experienced in the twelfth bar of the Reprise of the Enharmonique may not perhaps be to everyone's taste right away; one can nonetheless grow accustomed to it after a little application, and even grow to awareness of all its beauty once the initial aversion, which in this case might result from lack of familiarity, has been overcome. The harmony which creates this effect has by no means been thrown in haphazardly; it is based on logic and has the sanction of Nature herself …
The mood is one of a lament, with poignant chromaticisms and a few contrasting bars where, to alternate with gracieusement ('gracefully') Rameau writes hardiment, sans altérer la mesure ('boldly, without altering the tempo').
The final movement, L'egiptienne, is inspired by the dance of a gypsy girl, and brings the suite to a brilliant conclusion. In his preface Rameau sensibly warns us not to take the fast pieces too fast, but rather to be more intent upon capturing their correct character. That seems especially apt in the case of this piece.

- Find out why we age.
- Explore viewpoints on aging from Koshland Science Museum Visitors.
- Learn about the development associated with different stages of life.
- Find out how changes to vision, risk perceptions, and experience affect driving.
Why Do We Age?
Explore the videos below to watch different Koshland Science Museum visitors describe their answers to the following six questions:
- What was the happiest moment of your life?
- What are the most important lessons you've learned in life?
- What is your earliest memory? How old were you?
- Are there any words of wisdom you'd like to pass along?
- How has your life been different from what you imagined?
- What does your future hold?
Developmental Stages
Learn about the following developmental stages, their definitions, and the physical; cognitive; and emotional, cultural, and social development associated with each.
Pre•na•tal \ ()prē-nā-təl\
Definition: occurring, existing, or performed before birth <prenatal care> (Merriam-Webster Online)
Conception to Birth
Physical Development
- Nature and nurture are both important in the development of all stages of human life. Nurture, that is, environmental factors, such as good nutritional intake by the mother and the avoidance of toxins, significantly affect prenatal health. Nature, or genes that may cause disorders, also influence prenatal development.
- We start as a single cell that contains all the genetic information that we will need for our entire life. From that single cell, 350 different cell types will be formed prior to birth.
- Prenatal development spans three stages. Gestation begins with conception and lasts until the fertilized egg is implanted in the uterus (around two weeks). The embryonic stage marks the development of the major organs and limbs (two weeks to ten weeks after conception). The fetal stage lasts from the eleventh week to birth. During this stage the development of all organs continues and the fetus grows in size and weight.
- Environmental factors pose risks at different stages of development. For example, the embryo is particularly vulnerable to the effects of German measles (rubella). The mother's infection by the virus during the first month of pregnancy leads to an almost 50% chance of infant blindness or brain damage. The percentage drops to 22% if contracted in the second month and decreases thereafter.
Cognitive Development
- Executive function refers to a variety of interdependent skills that are necessary to perform goal-directed activities such as making plans and purposefully integrating past knowledge and present information. It had been believed that such skills were not expressed until later in our development, such as during adolescence. However, evidence indicates that cognition begins to develop as early as in the womb.
- Our cognitive development is influenced by our prenatal environment. A healthy fetus requires oxygen, protein and micronutrients. Conversely, the absorption of toxins such as alcohol, lead and tobacco can have negative neurological effects that last a lifetime.
- The baby's physical environment has the strongest effect on its prenatal development. There is no evidence that non-physical stimuli such as exposing the baby to classical music in utero will raise a child's IQ.
In•fant \'in-fənt\
Definition: 1. A child in the first period of life, 2. A person who is not of full age: MINOR (Merriam-Webster Online)
Birth–18 months
Physical Development
- Immediately after birth an infant will normally lose some baby weight, but after 2 weeks the infant starts gaining weight quickly. By 4 to 6 months, the infant's weight should be about double its birth weight.
- The head and neck of a newborn account for about 30% of its total body volume. In an adult, the head and neck account for about 10% of our total body volume.
- An infant's physical characteristics change rapidly. Until about 2 months of age, a newborn cannot support its head or control its hands or feet. This changes by 4 months when an infant can begin to manipulate its hands and feet, and the neck muscles are strong enough to hold the head upright.
- By 9 months, the infant may have begun to crawl, can possibly walk with support from an adult, and can sit without support for a long period of time. At one year, the infant may be able to stand and begin to walk alone.
- Synaptic overproduction and loss, a process in which neurons are produced quickly and pared away, is a critical aspect of brain development. This process is most active during the first year of life, but can extend into adolescence. Different brain regions appear to develop at different rates. For example, neuronal development in the visual area of the brain peaks halfway through the first year and reaches adult levels around the end of preschool.
Cognitive Development
- Some heritable genetic disorders that cause cognitive impairment can be prevented. For example, damage due to phenylketonuria, a heritable disorder that leads to mental disability, can be completely prevented by following a strict diet avoiding the amino acid phenylalanine, which is found in many foods including eggs and milk.
- Infants have a surprisingly sophisticated understanding of the world. At less than a month of age an infant can imitate another's gestures and by nine months may learn new behaviors through simple observation. For instance, infants have remembered how to unlock a container up to 24 hours after watching a peer do it.
- Loving care-giving can enhance certain neurochemicals—such as serotonin and thyroid hormones—that help regulate distress and pain. This has been shown to affect a person's brain chemistry throughout his or her life.
- Infants raised in a healthy environment—with access to quality education, care giving and nutrition— score significantly higher on IQ tests. In contrast, infants raised around harmful toxins—such as cigarette smoke and polluted air—are more likely to experience cognitive impairment later in life.
Emotional, Cultural, and Social Development
- By 6 to 9 months, infants are interacting with their social environment. Babies will smile and babble at other babies, and sometimes initiate or return social bids. By 9 to 12 months, infants will imitate each other as a simple form of play.
- Children tend to say their first words at between 10 and 15 months. Following this, they learn that words can be broken into parts, such as how "shoes" can be broken into "shoe" + "s", eventually combining words into meaningful phrases.
Toddler & Preschool
Tod•dler \'täd-lər, 'tä-dəl-ər\
Definition: one that toddles; especially: a young child. (Merriam-Webster Online)
Pre•school \'prē-,skül, (,)prē-'\
Definition: of, relating to, or constituting the period in a child's life that ordinarily precedes attendance at elementary school. (Merriam-Webster Online)
19 months–5 years
Physical Development
- By two years old, both boys and girls stand about 2 ft. 10 in. tall and weigh between 27 and 28 pounds. Growth rate and weight gain remain relatively constant. The child will gain approximately 5 pounds a year until the age of 5.
- The child typically acquires large motor skills allowing him or her to stand and walk. During preschool children become more skilled at running, jumping and kicking, and will commonly be able to catch a ball, pedal a bike and hop on one foot.
- Fine motor skills develop during this stage. The child can stack objects and will learn to scribble, use a spoon and cup and copy a circle. By the end of preschool the child will have the motor skills for better self care, including dressing and neatly feeding him or herself during a meal.
Cognitive Development
- Toddlers notice others' states and activities. They are able learn from others, perceive goals and reproduce strategies to achieve those goals. Toddlers may recognize that others may have different tastes or preferences that influence how goals are achieved.
- Cognitive development in toddlers may suffer by being too parent-dependent. Intrusion from parents and teachers can discourage mastery of behavior, whereby toddlers propel their own personal growth.
- Academic performance during the preschool years is often predictive of success throughout life. Thus it is important that children struggling academically be helped as soon as possible. Programs that sustain and improve the quality of education for at-risk preschoolers are critical.
- The ability to self-regulate, sequence, plan, and organize to achieve goals becomes expected. Deficits in these abilities can result in long-term deficits in social and emotional development.
Emotional, Cultural, and Social Development
- The toddler who has learned that the people she depends on for comfort will help her when she is emotionally distressed is more likely to approach others with empathy and trust than the toddler whose worries and fears have been dismissed or belittled.
- Toddlers self-regulate their emotions. Children talk to themselves to give encouragement, change goals when frustrated, and employ other strategies to avoid distressing situations.
- Shyness is a trait that parents and caregivers may alter. Many preschoolers who are initially shy do not remain so. Unique patterns of brain activity in children who do not develop beyond their initial inhibitions suggest the presence of an underlying influence on social behavior.
- Almost all children will learn to talk without explicit instruction. Children born into bilingual homes appear to learn each language as if it is their only tongue. A problem bilingual children encounter is retaining both languages when one language is used in the home and the other is used in the broader society, such as by teachers and peers.
- While almost all children will learn to talk, not all children will read. Writing requires more self-conscious teaching than spoken language, and not every child will reach a fluent reading level in his or her lifetime.
School Age
Definition: old enough to go to school <school–age children> (Merriam-Webster Online)
6 years–12 years
Physical Development
- By this age, large motor skills are advanced, but coordination, endurance, balance and physical ability vary.
- The degree of fine motor skills varies widely among school-age children. This variance can affect the child's relative ability to write neatly, dress appropriately and perform other household chores.
- Weight, height, and body build differences between children at school age become more pronounced. While some children may be genetically predisposed to being taller, shorter, or having a certain body type, external influences—such as nutrition and physical exercise—can change these outcomes. Puberty may start at the age of 9, triggering a growth spurt.
Cognitive Development
- When a person reaches school age, cognitive growth accelerates. Many of the core functions of cognitive health—such as executive function and speed of information processing—expand very quickly. Six-year-olds have performed as well as adults on tasks involving visual searches and arranging simple sequences.
- Early learning capabilities can remain intact within adverse circumstances and environments. Children showing early delays in learning or cognitive performance can benefit from family-centered, community-based support that is individualized to the child's needs. One exception to this resiliency is attention. Due to the importance of attention to school achievement, problems in attention need to be identified and tended to early.
Emotional Development
- Early school years are often seen as a carefree time, but disappointments, frustrations and hurt feelings are also inevitable aspects being young. During school age, finding ways to regulate emotions is critical to managing these negative feelings.
- The ability to regulate emotions is linked to social development, allowing a child to more easily relate to others at home, at school, and on the playground. Emotional control prevents outbursts and withdrawals from stressful situations, which can make social development difficult.
Cultural and Social Development
- The ability to learn some aspects of language—such as how prefixes and suffixes can change a word's meaning—seems to decline after age seven. Because of this, late-learners of language may not achieve native-like competence in language.
- Serious behavior problems are seen in 5 to 10 percent of school-age children. These behavior problems are strongly associated with problems related to schoolwork, which can in turn aggravate behavioral problems. Early interventions that focus on multiple settings, such as home and school, can help to break this cycle.
- While many factors are associated with the early emergence of negative social behavior, not much is known about the factors that promote or prevent continued bad behavior, although peer groups seem to play a role in behavior among older children. Peers can expose others to negative social behaviors such as delinquency and drug use and change attitudes towards those behaviors.
Adolescent & Young Adult
ad•o•les•cence \,a-də-'le-sən(t)s\
Definition: 1. the state or process of growing up, 2. the period of life from puberty to maturity terminating legally at the age of majority, 3. a stage of development (as of a language or culture) prior to maturity. (Merriam-Webster Online)
Young Adult
Definition: 1. a teenager (used especially by publishers and librarians), 2. a person in the early years of adulthood. (dictionary.com, based on Random House Dictionary)
13 years–34 years
Physical Development
- Puberty brings about physical maturity and a final growth spurt. The child's nutritional needs increase to reflect a rapidly growing body.
- Girls may begin to develop breasts as early as 8, but typically develop fully between the ages of 12 and 18. Hair grows and reaches its adult pattern around the age of 13 or 14. The growth spurt for girls typically occurs between the ages of nine and 15.
- Boys begin to notice testicle and scrotum growth around the age of nine, reaching adult size and shape around 16 or 17. Pubic hair, armpit, leg, chest, and facial hair begin to grow at around age 12 and reach adult patterns around 15 or 16 years. Boy's voices change during puberty.
- After puberty, aging begins. Approximately 50% of men will show signs of baldness by the time they reach 30 years of age. Hearing loss begins, but it typically becomes noticeable only after the age of 50.
Cognitive Development
- Teens who do not complete high school are more likely to display destructive behaviors in adulthood., including substance abuse, criminality and delinquency, and to experience unemployment and low income.
- Self-regulation and impulse control steadily improves into adulthood, but risk taking increases during adolescence. Rates of injury in adolescents increase by nearly 200% from childhood.
- During adolescence, the ability to plan and carry out new and complex sequences of actions reaches maturity.
- People who receive higher levels of education are less likely to develop dementia later in life. Researchers speculate that those who pursue higher education tend to place themselves in more cognitively stimulating environments throughout life.
Emotional Development
- By adolescence, the ability to control emotions should be fully developed, but the magnitude of that control varies across individuals. Determining when help is needed is often difficult because some teens simply require more time to grow up than others, eventually reaching a healthy degree of maturity and self-control later in adulthood.
Cultural and Social Development
- Teenagers are often described as "risk takers." Research, indicates that though teenagers may not be more inclined to take risks, they are not good at identifying risky situations. Strategies to curb risky behavior may need to be revised to improve adolescents' skills at recognizing risk.
- Teenage willingness to take risks can be intensified by the teenager's social environment. The more times a teenager has been exposed to risky behaviors, whether through experience or the accounts of friends, the less risk that teenager associates with dangerous activity.
- During early adulthood, leisure time decreases as individuals take on more important responsibilities at work and at home. Young adulthood is customarily seen as the appropriate age to start full-time jobs, get married, and have children.
- Evidence indicates that parents can prepare their children for new social challenges—such as the dangers of binge drinking on college campuses—by discussing the topic with their children prior to college.
Adult \ə-'dəlt, 'a-,dəlt\
Adulthood = noun
Definition, Adult: fully developed and mature: grown-up. (Merriam-Webster Online)
35 years–55 or 65 years
Physical Development
- Aging begins as soon as one reaches adulthood and is as much a stage of human life as are infancy, childhood and adolescence.
- Each of us experiences aging differently, with various organs and systems aging at different rates among individuals.
- The sharpness of the senses starts to decline as a result of aging. Eyes become drier and the pupils decrease in size. By 60 years of age, the pupils will be 1/3 their size when the person was 20. The number of taste buds begins to decrease between the ages of 40 to 50 in women and 50 to 60 in men.
- Without exercise, muscle mass can decline 22% for women and 23% for men between the ages of 30 and 70. Exercise can slow this rate of loss.
Cognitive Development
- The adult brain has a much greater capacity for growth and change than previously believed. The adult brain can grow new dendrites, make new connections and pathways, and perhaps even create new neurons.
- On average, skills in verbal meaning, spatial reasoning, numbers, and word fluency increase until we are in our late 30s, remain stable until the early 60s, and decline thereafter. Base cognitive skills such as perceptual speed and verbal memory have a similar life course.
- Cognitive stimulation can help delay the onset of Alzheimer's disease in affected individuals and slow its progression after onset.
Emotional Development
- Adults report less distance between their ideal self and actual self, indicating that as people develop into adults they become more satisfied with who they are.
- Multiple studies have shown that older individuals tend to experience fewer negative emotions than their younger counterparts. Even after a traumatic event, adults and older adults cope better than do younger people.
Cultural and Social Development
- Social development can change suddenly through life-changing events such as becoming a parent or losing a loved one, as well as gradually through social environmental factors such as advancement through a career.
- Despite the significant social changes experienced during adulthood, an individual's underlying personality remains fundamentally unaltered. Adults adapt their preexisting personality to their changing circumstances.
- During late adulthood, adults tend to engage in a social pruning process. We keep emotionally close social relationships while allowing more peripheral relationships fade away.
Old Age
Old \'ōld\
Definition: advanced in years or age <an old person>. (Merriam-Webster Online).
Fifty-five or 65 years and older
Physical Development
- Old age can be broken into three stages: young old (55–65 years of age), middle old (66–85), and old old (85 and older).
- The bones become more brittle as they lose calcium and other minerals. Similarly, joints become less flexible as the joints lose fluid and cartilage begins to rub together.
- Though the degree of vision impairment varies among individuals, almost everyone over fifty-five will need glasses at least part of the time. The most common visual difficulty at this age is focusing on things very close.
- In old age, sense of touch starts to decline. This decreased ability to detect vibration and pressure may result in injury. In fact, many older people have a reduced sensitivity to pain.
- Older people are more susceptible to chronic diseases such as diabetes, lung disease, arthritis, and hypertension.
Cognitive Development
- Evidence indicates that older individuals can train specific, but not general, areas of cognition. Memory training, for instance, has been effective for adults in their 60s through 80s.
- Physical training can also improve cognition in old age. Research has shown that exercise can enhance brain function and delay brain atrophy.
- Despite general declines in cognitive performance in old age, reasoning as it applies to complex matters of daily life seems relatively unaffected by normal aging.
- Cognitive functions such as memory, spatial processing, and attention may decline at different rates among people and within individuals. The rate of decline of a particular function in one person is unlikely to match its rate of decline in another.
- Technology can help counter the effects of cognitive decline. For example, computer-aided sensors are being used in cars to detect rear obstructions that older people may have difficulty seeing.
Emotional Development
- Older more than younger adults are more likely to pursue emotionally meaningful goals. Younger adults tend to pursue goals that expand their horizons or generate new social contacts. As we age, our goals change to accommodate changes in our resources and in our physical selves.
- Views of the self during aging may influence the course of aging. In a study of people 50 to 94, people with strong, positive attitudes toward the aging self tended to live, on average, 7.5 years longer than those with negative attitudes.
Cultural and Social Development
- In the United States during the 20th century, the average retirement age fell from 74 to 63.
- As we age, our social networks tend to shrink and a larger proportion of one's social network becomes comprised of emotionally close partners. This change in social habits reflects emotional development in old age, where individuals begin prioritizing emotional goals.
Driving at Different Ages
The leading cause of death for Americans aged 5-34 is motor vehicle accidents. Driver behavior has been identified as the major factor in approximately 90 % of roadway accidents. Learn more about the factors that can affect driving in the following videos.
Teen Driving
Motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of death for U.S. teenagers, accounting for more than one in three deaths in this age group. What factors make driving so deadly for teens?
Older Drivers
In the United States, driving is the most common form of transportation for adults over 65. Unfortunately, per miles spent behind the wheel, they are disproportionately at risk for accidents. It is not clear at what age a person becomes an "older driver." However, a number of studies show significant differences between the driving skills of relatively older versus younger drivers.

Love Thy "Neighborhood" Small Cells
Whether you love Thy neighbor or not, you will definitely love "Neighborhood small cells!"

Whether you love Thy neighbor or not, you will definitely love "Neighborhood small cells!"
As the saying goes, "Challenges bring out the best in us." And now we're facing a formidable one: The 1000x challenge.
Would you believe that meeting data demand can be as easy as child's play? No? Check out this video (after reading my blog of course)!
During my recent talk about small cells and their evolution toward higher coverage, capacity and reach, a listener asked me, "Isn't that what today's picocells offer?" The answer is, "Exactly!" As we move toward femto networks, femtos will be used as traditional picocells, combining the plug and play benefit of femto architecture with larger coverage and capacity of picocells. Our recent announcement of femto chipsets supporting up to 32 users is a major step in that direction.
The explosive growth in social media that my friend Sachin discusses in his blog, is fast becoming a reality in many parts of the world, adding to the unprecedented demand for data services. If the constant flurry of new smartphones and tablets being announced is any indication, the onslaught will continue far into the future.

Here's the Dead Ending story: On tour in 2006, Bomb guitarist Jeff Dean met and befriended Vic Bondi, the frontman of legendary Chicago punk heroes Articles Of Faith. They bonded over hyper aggressive 80's bands and discussed the possibility of starting a band. When he got home, Jeff got busy and wrote some tunes, then recruited longtime friend, Alkaline Trio drummer Derek Grant to help him lay the tracks down in Million Yen Studios, where Jeff works as an engineer. Vic liked the songs and signed on. Joe Principe of Rise Against came aboard on bass soon after that, and BOOM! Dead Ending was born.
Dead Ending made their live debut at Punk Rock Bowling in Vegas this year and will do shows and potentially even small touring runs whenever their busy lives all align. They're also in the beginning stages of writing a full length. So get out your spiky belt and your safety pins and tell your dentist to go fuck himself because Dead Ending is gearing up to bring Āthe chaotic hardcore of the 80's to you today with a quickness that would make Doc Brown shit his pants. Consider yourselves warned!

name lips wrote:I think I finally spotted him in the back of Parson's entourage on Page 83. That's before Maggie showed up! On Page 90 you get a very good picture of Parson and the group he's stacked with, and Jack is nowhere to be seen.
Remember, like she told Parson, Thinkamancy can't make people do things they wouldn't have the potential to do anyway. She was able to make Stanley appoint Parson as chief warlord because in his heart, he actually does think that Parson is competent, even if the guy makes him uneasy; and because he could rationalize it to himself as getting his money's worth out of the Summon Perfect Warlord spell.Salem wrote:I wouldn't count Ace out of decryption. I want him to just live. I love him and I dislike red more now for simply doing her duty because it included hurting Ace.
But my strategy here would be, move the capital of GK to spacerock, to decrypt to shore up losses suffered from not having Wanda. Then if we wanted to much the capital back which would make sense, do a super protected dwagon relay back and forth. Granted this creates risk for Stanley. With an heir it would be the best choice for the side. We also know that Maggie has no qualms about telling her overlord which droids he is and is not looking for. Maybe she'll mind control him into making an heir.
That in hindsight sounds dirty.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "As is usually the case with this wine when it's young, the nose is restrained to the point of being almost mute though aggressive swirling liberates aromas of earth, spice, red currant and hints of the sauvage. And instead of the robust and well-muscled mid-palate there is an almost caressing..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Clos des Lambrays is striking. Dark cherries, plums, wild berries, spices and licorice are woven together beautifully in this highly expressive, singular wine. A cool vein of minerality is a common thread as the wine continues to take shape in the glass. There is a beguiling, mysterious..
Cellar/Tasting Notes A subtle but not invisible application of wood frames fresh, cool, pure and remarkably complex aromas of various red berries, underbrush, game and plenty of earth. There is excellent richness to the full-bodied and overtly powerful big-bodied flavors that brim with palate coating dry extract that..
Cellar/Tasting Notes An appealingly floral nose features notes of violets along with cool and pure earthy plum and red berry fruit aromas that are liberally laced with wet stone nuances. The taut and muscular broad-scaled and concentrated flavors are precise, intense and explosively long on the focused, dusty and..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "There is enough wood to notice though it doesn't fight with the mostly red berry fruit, spice and pungent earth aromas. There is ample size, weight, power, muscle and concentration to the big-bodied flavors that brim with dry extract that does a fine job of buffering the very firm but not hard..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "There is also enough oak influence to notice though not enough to materially detract from the high-toned and overtly spicy red currant, cherry and plum suffused nose. There is a lovely minerality to the supple, forward and refined middle weight plus flavors that possess a wonderfully refined mouth..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2010 Corton Clos du Roi graces the palate with exquisite depth and sheer purity. Layers of seamless fruit emerge from this sublime, totally refined wine. De Montille used two-thirds whole clusters and 50% new oak barrels, but none of that stands out. It is the superb depth and purity of the..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "An ultra-fresh, cool and equally pure nose features a plethora of red berry scents along with notes of earth, spice, underbrush and a floral element that adds aromatic lift. Not surprisingly, the ripe broad-shouldered flavors are bigger, richer and more powerful with plenty of punch before..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This is unusually elegant in 2010 with its refined nose of raspberry and earth though there are background notes of grilled meat and smoke. The supple, mouth coating and utterly delicious broad-shouldered flavors possess a silky texture yet there is plenty of power and punch to the very firmly..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Rich, yet always elegant, this has raspberry flavor and terrific acidity that creates tension, contrasting with the opulent fruit. While it's structured, it will soften and round out over the next five years."

Aspiring-Marathoner Rising Star Opens New Chapter for Laguna Phuket Fundraising
Media Release
Athletes asked to support Laguna Phuket Foundation
Athletes booking their slots in Laguna Phuket's 2013 marathon and triathlon series are being asked to raise funds through donations and sponsorships for the resort's long established "Laguna Phuket Foundation" aimed at collecting THB 1 million per year to operate its various charitable programmes.
A partnership with Ban Yaan Sabaa School in Phang Nga province, the latest initiative of the Foundation, was launched on Wednesday 15 May in Bangkok by actor, author, and aspiring marathoner, Krittapas "Krit" Sakdidtanon, newly-appointed Charity Ambassador of the 2013 Laguna Phuket International Marathon (LPIM), which will be held on Sunday 9 June.
It's the latest project in Laguna Phuket Foundation's on-going Developing Sustainable Schools Programme that has benefited hundreds of school children in Phuket and neighbouring provinces.
Established in 2009, Laguna Phuket Foundation supports educational and social development, marine and natural environmental conservation, and emergency relief.
The Foundation's initiatives include the Developing Sustainable Schools Programme which consists of Laguna Phuket's "Fully Booked!" Mobile Learning Centre, Survival Swim program, and School Partnership Project.
In previous years, athletes from Thailand and all over the world have raised millions of baht to fund several school rebuilding programmes through LPIM and the Laguna Phuket triathlon events.
Last year, over THB 1 million was raised by athletes for Laguna Phuket's "Fully Booked!" Mobile Learning Centre. Aiming to provide alternative learning resources for children from kindergarten to primary school ages and their teachers in rural areas of Phuket and Phang Nga province for a five-year period, the project is currently scheduled to commence early next year.
This year, the Foundation's latest school partnership initiative is aimed to support Ban Yaan Sabaa, a small school in Phang Nga's rural area of Amphur Takuatung comprising eight classrooms for 88 students from kindergarten to 6th grade in need of various developments, repairs and improvements.
Among them is the much needed renovation of the student canteen to ensure a safe and healthy environment for children to learn in.
As an aspiring-marathoner, Krittapas "krit" Sakdidtanon, is particularly pleased to be spearheading an initiative that will benefit children in nearby Phang Nga.
"I'm delighted to be Charity Ambassador of the 2013 Laguna Phuket International Marathon and thrilled to be involved in an initiative that gives athletes an opportunity to enjoy their run even more, knowing that besides running for our health, we'll also be running for our kids," he said.
Krit, aged 32, a rising actor who appeared in "Khun Chai Pawornruj" a popular primetime TV series, will be at LPIM – dubbed "Run Paradise" - on 9 June to lead a fundraising caravan on the half marathon.
Debbie Dionysius, Laguna Phuket's Assistant Vice President of Destination Marketing, said: "We're all very excited at having such a fantastic ambassador to launch and lead this worthy project.
"Raising money for Laguna Phuket Foundation which supports various developing sustainable school programmes is a great way for our thousands of athletes from all over the world to leave a positive impact on Phuket and the surrounding areas."
To learn more and donate online, please visit www.lagunaphuket.com/CSR-foundation
Runners can register for the event on the LPIM website www.phuketmarathon.com.
