Identifying Best Practices: What You See is What You Get
Montessori classrooms are different. They look different from other classrooms. The curriculum is different from other curricula. The teachers are different from other teachers. With all the ways in which Montessori programs differ from traditional schools, how can they still reflect contemporary understanding of "best practices" for education? If they did, wouldn't they look more the same?
Not necessarily. Our current understanding of best practice includes in it wide variations to serve the developmental needs of individual children, particularly in early childhood programs. The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) contends that quality care for young children must be age-appropriate, culturally appropriate, and individually appropriate. Further, NAEYC offers guidelines in five primary areas for assessing the activities that should be available for children in high quality educational settings: gross-motor, fine-motor, language, cognitive, and social development. Understanding how these standards are met and exceeded in Montessori classrooms can help parents to better understand their own children's experiences.
Best Practice Allows for Gross Motor Development
NAEYC asserts that, in order to assure the proper development of children's gross-motor skills, certain types of experiences must be available for each child. First, the child must be permitted physical activity throughout the day. In Montessori classrooms, that translates to free movement throughout the room. You may see children sitting at tables, lying on the floor, or climbing to a loft. You may see children carrying heavy trays, moving furniture, or handling cumbersome equipment. Consider the tiny 4-year-old who so diligently carries a basin of water to the sink. The gross-motor coordination that is required for daily activities is pervasive in Montessori classrooms, instead of being limited to the playground.
The Montessori Method values children's freedom of movement as a necessary precursor to their intellectual development. Children aren't limited to a few tables or chairs or asked to remain still for long periods of time. Children's natural impulse to move and explore is respected as an inherent indicator of their curiosity and their developing self-control.
Likewise, NAEYC standards recommend that children be free to move, explore and act upon objects in their environment. Montessori is clearly a hands-on curriculum! The Montessori materials invite children's exploration and experimentation Montessorians believe that children far beyond the preschool years must be able to experience concepts concretely before they understand those concepts abstractly. Think about the Binomial Cube: This seemingly difficult concept is offered as a puzzle to young children, then named as an equation for older children, and finally understood as an abstract algebraic concept. The gross-motor activities of the Montessori classroom are designed to develop the confidence and competence upon which children's further learning will be established. It's far more than just moving around the classroom.
Best Practice Allows for Fine Motor Development
NAEYC requires that activities with corresponding tools be provided for children to develop fine-motor skills. Montessori classrooms offer many of the same tools as do traditional schools: crayons, pencils, scissors, and paints. But Montessori classrooms bring that development further by increasing the range and variety of fine-motor activities, often using tools that surprise parents with their complexity. Consider Practical Life, in which children's fine-motor skills are systematically supported through the careful sequencing of activities. Pouring large beans, then smaller ones, then sand or salt requires an increasing aptitude and developing fine-motor skills. Using a screwdriver or peeling a carrot supports muscular development in practical, applicable skills. Sensorial materials provide small knobs, tiny pieces, and figures of various shapes and sizes. Further, NAEYC requires opportunities for practice. Montessori classrooms protect children's desire to repeat activities and to select materials that are appropriate to them. Children are encouraged to practice skills not only through repeated experiences with the same materials, but also through constant exposure to diverse and enticing materials that develop similar skills.
National standards require appropriate expectations of fine-motor development from teachers. The Montessori teacher, who has been well educated in the many ways in which a child can show mastery of skill, is attentive to each child's development. Montessori classrooms provide ample and various means by which children can develop the muscles in their hands, for example, long before the children are ever expected to hold a pencil or write their names. Again, the careful sequencing of activities which increase in difficulty and complexity as the child develops supports the emergence of children's skills at a pace appropriate for each child.
Best Practice Allows for the Development of Language and Communication Skills
Teachers in high quality programs universally value language development and communication skills. National standards call for opportunities for children to talk and interact with their peers and with adults. Montessorians list among the essential freedoms of the child "Freedom of Language." In high quality classrooms, children are encouraged to speak with adults and other children. Best practices include teachers who understand the development of language and use appropriate moments to help develop and correct children's language. Montessori classrooms are filled with practical language development, from the nomenclature cards to named objects within formal lessons, to the assurance that adults in the classroom will not speak down to children or use baby talk.
National standards also encourage verbal generation of ideas by children. Watch Montessori classrooms during community meetings and when children are problem-solving with each other. During these times, children's ideas are easy to notice. But watch more closely and you'll see them present throughout the day, as children master materials and explain how they did so to their friends or teachers, and as children share with each other lessons they've received or make plans for activities to do together. Because Montessori classrooms allow for the natural development of social networks among children, language in these classrooms is spontaneous, rich, and varied.
What About Dramatic Play?
National standards for early childhood education require that classrooms provide opportunities for dramatic play. Parents rarely see dramatic play in Montessori classrooms, though. Where are the dress-up boxes? Where is the play kitchen? If Montessori classrooms focus on the individual development of the children they serve, shouldn't dramatic play be more present there?
Montessorians haven't abandoned dramatic play. Indeed, Dr. Montessori's own writings describe children's inherent desire to practice the activities they observed in adults. But while traditional classrooms may select a theme for dramatic play, Montessori classrooms allow this "play" to be created by the children instead of the teacher. The materials of Practical Life allow for children to practice the skills they've seen their parents perform. Listen carefully, though, to the language children use when they're working with these materials, and you may be surprised by how much more is happening in the children's minds than the simple pouring of water. Montessori teachers describe watching children explore imaginary contents to the Opening and Closing Containers lesson, or pretend to be pouring tea for a guest, or imagine stitching a button on a beautiful gown when they're really working with empty jars, pitchers of water, or snips of muslin. Children imagine that the knobbed cylinders are families, or that the cubes of the pink tower are stories in a building. There is no less dramatic play in Montessori classrooms. Rather, the imagination of these children emerges from the children themselves rather than from a teacher telling them who they need to pretend to be each day. The spontaneous creativity of children in Montessori classrooms is quite profound, and far surpasses the stories or costumes adults could provide.
Best Practices Support Cognitive Development
Children's cognitive abilities should be supported in high quality classrooms through a variety of activities designed to meet an equally wide span of development. These activities should support symbolic thought, which Montessori provides through the deliberate sequence from concrete to abstract concepts and representations. Children understand first the name and purpose of the object they hold in their hands. From there, they transfer that name to its picture, then its outline. Finally, the child understands that a simple image can represent that original object. This sequence is present in every area of the Montessori classroom, from recipe cards in Practical Life to grammatical diagrams in Language.
Activities should also allow for the development of concentration, which is highly valued and protected in the Montessori classroom. Children's activities are not interrupted by adults and are protected from the interruption of other children.
Activities should also allow for concept acquisition and the development of reasoning. The self-correcting materials of Montessori classrooms support children's individual problem-solving skills while providing concrete concepts for the child to master.
Likewise, each of these activities, according to NAEYC, should provide opportunities for information processing through meaningful activities, without an expectation of rote memorization and within an organized structure. Montessori classrooms are filled with meaningful activities, with an expectation that children would prefer to do "the real thing" rather than pretend. The natural exposure to concepts without heavy memorizing and the consistent and predictable structure of Montessori allows children's cognitive development to unfold rapidly.
Best Practices Allow for Social and Emotional Development
Social-emotional experiences in early childhood help form a child's sense of self and his ability to interact and to be successful with unpredictable situations in the future. Among the ways that both NAEYC and Montessori classrooms value this social-emotional development is through open support for cooperative play (visible in small groups of children working together), alternatives to aggression (Montessori community meetings or peace tables), adult awareness of children's fragile self-concept (apparent in the deep respect and compassion shown children by their Montessori teachers), and appropriate discipline. NAEYC asserts that quality classrooms will help individual children develop a sense of self-reliance, independence, responsibility, success, and problem-solving. What accurate terms to describe a Montessori child!
Is Montessori Consistent with Best Practices?
There are a few complaints sometimes levied against Montessori programs. People suggest that Montessori is too structured, that creativity or social interactions are limited. Others complain that Montessori is too free, that children learn bad habits or that teachers allow children to do whatever they want. But healthy Montessori classrooms allow for enough structure to provide the predictability that benefits children's developing sense of their environments, and provide freedom within that structure for children to explore, make mistakes, develop new ideas, and test boundaries. Healthy Montessori programs provide abundant opportunities for children to socialize with each other and share their joys and challenges. The buzz of an active Montessori classroom is the sound of children enjoying their experiences and enthusiastically relating those successes to others.
Because Montessorians use the language of "work" instead of "play," people sometimes assume that Montessori classrooms aren't fun. This is far from the truth. Montessorians use the word "work" to describe everything the child does, because the child's "work" is to learn about the world and find his or her place within it. Healthy Montessori classrooms are visibly joyful. Children are peaceful not because they are being forced to be, but because their needs are met and their frustrations seem surmountable. Children take responsibility for each other not because it is "the rule," but because they are supported in developing inter-reliant relationships in which they are deeply invested. In short, Montessori may be the most ideal representation of best practice because, when educated teachers follow individual children's development in carefully prepared environments, Montessori proves, each day, that children are more creative, more compassionate, and more capable than any standard could define.

Apple keeping PA Semi chips around for military
Apple will be a chipmaker--of sorts--for a while after its acquisition of PA Semi as it satisfies demand for that company's current product.
The Register is reporting that Apple will support PA Semi's current Pwrficient processors after it finalizes the purchase of the company. Apple CEO Steve Jobs indicated after his company bought PA Semi that its primary interest in the chipmaker was for the company's talent and patents, not the actual chips themselves.
But PA Semi counts some pretty influential organizations among its user base, such as the U.S. Department of Defense, which uses military … Read more

The online shop for Zingerman's, now with our Spring Sale e-catalog.

Raw Milk Stichelton
England's classic blue cheese.
Raw milk Stilton hasn't been made since 1989. With the guidance and support of Randolph Hodgson of Neal's Yard Dairy, Joe Schneider has spent the past two years reviving this extinct cheese. Problem is, he can't call it Stilton. The laws governing the name of Stilton prescribe that it be made with pasteurized milk. Even though it was made with raw milk for hundreds of years. Hence the name Stichelton, the original village where Stilton was made—with raw milk, of course.
This is the only traditional raw milk Stilton in the world. Working in the cheese's home county of Nottinghamshire, Joe and a staff of two turn 2,440 liters of fresh milk from their herd into Stichelton every day. The curds are hand-ladled before being set into forms and drained. Later, they're pierced with needles, and the famous blueing begins. Four to six months later we have the result: an exquisite, legendary blue with broad, buttery flavors that linger on the tongue.
Randolph and crew select the best wheels for our customers. For hundreds of years the famous blue cheese has had its part at the British dinner table, often served alongside a glass of port and a handful of walnuts. The three do go well together, I admit.
The wheel we're cutting into now were made in July 2013.

Funding opportunities
Genetically Engineering Stem Cells to Target HIV Infection
Funding Type:
Disease Team Therapy Planning I
Grant Number:
Funds requested:
$60 725
Funding Recommendations:
Grant approved:
Public Abstract:
AIDS/HIV disease is a viral infection that destroys the immune response. The disease can be treated with drugs, however these drugs do not eliminate the virus from the body. Hence currently the patient must remain on these drugs for the remainder of their life. These drugs are expensive and often cause toxicities, thus an improved treatment strategy for this disease is needed. Our project proposes pre-clinical studies to advance towards clinical trial a stem cell-based method of enhancing the patient's own immune response against the virus. This approach involves identifying anti-HIV receptors that will be introduced into the patient's own blood-forming stem cells. These cells will then be transplanted back into the patient, and the new receptors in those cells will direct those cells to turn into mature white blood cells that kill other cells infected by the AIDS virus (HIV). Since stem cells are stable following transplant, this approach has the potential to provide long-term immune control of virus replication, and may require only one or a few administrations. In this project we will perform all of the necessary pre-clinical development and characterization of this approach, and complete all of the necessary regulatory steps to achieve regulatory approval to begin testing of this strategy in humans.
Statement of Benefit to California:
The state of California and its economy are greatly impacted by AIDS/HIV disease. In 2007, the most recent year for which data is available, over 1100 Californians died from HIV disease. In 2008 nearly 68,000 Californians were living with an AIDS diagnosis. HIV infected individuals can be treated with anti-viral drugs, but these do not completely eradicate HIV from the body. Consequently HIV infected patients must remain on these drugs for the remainder of their life. These drugs agents are expensive and associated with toxicities. For these reasons a stem cell-based therapy that offered long-term control or elimination of HIV without the toxicities associated with current drug therapies would be advantageous. A stem cell-based treatment may have an additional advantage over current drug treatment in that it may need to be administered only once, or a limited number of times. Our proposed approach would provide a means to genetically engineer stem cells to enhance the patient's own immune response against the virus. It is possible that this approach could be used alone, or in conjunction with other therapies to provide improved control of HIV and prolong the life of the HIV infected patient.
Review Summary:
Project Synopsis
The goal of this project is to file an IND and obtain appropriate regulatory approvals for a novel cell and gene therapy approach against human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease. The investigators propose to identify a combination of anti-HIV T cell receptors that will be introduced into the patient's own blood-forming (hematopoietic) stem cells. The manipulated cells, the proposed product, will then be transplanted back to the patient. These cells will contribute to the patient's immune system and lead to the generation of cytotoxic T cells that will target and kill cells infected with HIV. Proposed project activities include completion of preclinical studies including identification of anti-HIV receptors, cell process development, investigational new drug (IND)-enabling studies and obtaining appropriate regulatory approvals for a Phase 1 clinical trial.
Significance and Impact
- While current anti-retroviral therapy has been extremely effective in the vast majority of HIV positive patients, these medications can be costly, must be taken for life and can be associated with toxicity and other complications. The proposed strategy to genetically enhance the patient's own immune response to HIV, if successful, has the potential to have significant impact by providing benefit for an extended period of time since hematopoietic stem cells have the capacity to self renew.
- The intended patient population represents a minority of HIV patients but this population is sufficiently large to warrant development of this approach.
- The proposal is responsive to the RFA in that the proposed therapeutic meets the criteria for an eligible cell type. However, the proposed target product profile is not yet complete, and a development candidate has not yet been defined. For instance, a number of in vitro and in vivo studies to screen for additional anti-HIV T cell receptors and to identify their optimum combination and the gene delivery system have yet to be completed. Furthermore, the disease stage at which subjects would be treated is not yet specified.
Project Rationale and Feasibility
- Due to the fact that studies to inform the target product profile have yet to be performed before IND-enabling studies can be initiated, the proposed time lines are unrealistic and it is questionable whether an IND submission can be achieved within four years.
- The scientific rationale is based on preclinical data. However, reviewers did not find the preclinical data to be compelling.
- Reviewers noted that the type of hematopoietic stem cells used for preclinical studies are different from those that will be used in human clinical trials and thus preclinical studies will have to be repeated.
- Reviewers cautioned that in the absence of any conditioning regimen it is unclear if the quantity of gene-modified cytotoxic T cells likely to be produced from the transplanted stem cells would be sufficient to have an impact on viral clearance. This is not adequately addressed in the proposal.
- Since cytotoxic T cells require CD4 cells for help, it is not clear whether HIV patients will have sufficient CD4 cells available to facilitate the function of the engineered cytotoxic T effector cells.
- A theoretical concern is whether impaired thymic function in HIV infected individuals would limit T cell differentiation. There is also the possibility that expression of HIV antigens in the thymus of infected patients could result in negative selection of HIV-specific T cells, thus decreasing the frequency of the desired cells.
- Reviewers were concerned about insufficient attention to safety studies in the proposal.
Principal Investigator (PI) and Planning Leader
- The PI is highly experienced in research on HIV. He/She has previously participated in clinical trials of genetically modified hematopoietic stem cells in HIV positive subjects. He/She is well qualified to lead this translational project.
- The Planning Leader has outstanding experience in clinical trials in HIV including gene therapy trials of strong relevance to those proposed in the application. He/She is extremely well qualified to serve the proposed role.

"I have always believed that there are no shortcuts to understanding the biblical message. The Bethel Series was written to enhance the student's understanding of the Christian faith. The basic concept of a simple overview under disciplined training is timeless. It's proven that."
—Dr. Harley Swiggum
History of the Bethel Bible Series : A New Chapter for Bethel
Way back in the late 1950's, Pastor Harley Swiggum, then an Associate Pastor at Bethel (and still a member here), developed a study of the entire Bible, which became known as the Bethel Bible Series.
His idea was to train a carefully selected group of the congregation's members using a disciplined, high commitment arrangement, and then have these trainers teach the rest of the congregation.
This experiment, or should I say "dream", worked! After remarkable success here at Bethel, the Adult Christian Education Foundation was established and the Bethel Series was born. The Bethel Series was then offered to other congregations throughout the country, and later, around the world. Again the Bethel Series was greeted with great enthusiasm and participation.
Enter Yours Truly! In the summer of 1964, my congregation in Ohio sent me to Madison for two weeks of intensive Bethel Series training. Harley Swiggum was the teacher and I shall always remember that experience. In many ways, it was an awakening. I enthusiastically returned to Ohio and, for the next two years, had the privilege of training sixteen dedicated students. It was a wonderful experience for me, for those students, and then for our congregations.
The Bethel Series still lives on and, here at Bethel, each year a couple of classes are offered to members and taught by dedicated fellow members. Those will resume this fall.
The Bethel Series was born here at Bethel. It was and continues to be a blessing for many of our members and for others around the world. We are hoping for a re-birth experience here at Bethel Lutheran, and I am excited about this project.
In Christ,
Pastor Curt Everson

By the power of the internet, Savoir Adore's 2007 EP became a word-of-mouth sensation, and though their debut LP In The Wooded Forest was a US-only release last year, we were glad to discover this distinctly special Brooklyn duo. As previously reported, the album is getting a belated UK release this August through Cantora Records, the Big Apple-based label who helped to launch MGMT, Violens and Bear Hands.
Second single 'We Talk Like Machines' (out July 26) should go down a treat, and to help things along the band are kindly offering non-album track 'The Cave Of Good Secrets' as a freebie download. It's a pretty funky joint, with jazzy vocals overlaid across a psychedelic '60s beat to which you'll be twisting in no time. The single's two other B-sides are remixes of 'We Talk Like Machines' by Yes Giantess and Emil & Friends.

Everyone is saying the s4 is a superior phone, but I doubt they have played with both. I personally prefer stock android, but after playing with both, it is clear that the S4 has a descent amount of lag on wakeup as well so some of the menus. The aluminum and speakers are not the only reason to get the One. Sense runs much better than Touchwiz.
I got this case for my HTC One:
http://www.amazon.com/Cimo-Grip-B...c+one+case It fits very well, makes the phone quite a bit more grippy and easier to hold, and really lets the beautiful design of the phone show. I'm really enjoying my HTC One overall. The biggest advantages for me over the S4 are the front speakers which are really awesome, and the display which has more accurate colors and is sharper. But the S4 is a great phone also, and I like its larger screen and its lighter weight. I don't think you could really go wrong with either phone, they are both great and it just comes down to personal taste. |
The volume buttons of the On are also very low profile, but these guys opted to cover it with some nubs. Unfortunately, they're miscentered, and the only way to work the buttons is if you dig in with a nail rather forcefully. Not worth $1, let alone $4-5. I went with a Diztronic from Amazon, and the design is phenomenally better. Who new they could be such a difference in these cheaptastic TPU cases? |
Why cover a beauty with cheap TPU crap cases? I say just get full body protector and a leather sleeve. That way, you can at least admire the beauty and feel it too. Or get cheap looking S4 and buy nice feeling expensive case. HTC one is a beauty but the ratio of screen to size is one of the highest.

About Me Midrange Shopper
Comments about The Knot Personalized Unity Candle:
I was very dissapointed when I received my unity candle as everyone had lovely reviews and the pictures from other brides looks great. Unfortunately, my unity candle doesn't look like that. The ribbon is simply wrapped around the bottom (no indentation for it what so ever- from the photo, you would think there would be) and it has a thumb tack holding it to the back. The printing is very very faint and rubs off if you are not very careful. I nearly lost one of the letters to our names taking it out of the box.I am not a very picky person or anything - I simply write this review so that other brides are not as disappointed as I was. I wouldn't be mad if the ribbon was just ugly, but the fact that that printing is so lousy is very disappointing. I was really REALLY looking forward to my unity candle but now I will have to look elsewhere :(

Perfect Touch

I got the Encore design to use in a unity candle ceremony with me, my fiance and his 6-year old son and it is beautiful. The saying on it is perfect and I love that we now have a candle that describes our feelings about the wedding and our forming a "new" family. I used the silver font color on a white candle and it came out beautifully.

We loved our special unity candle. We were able to have our name and wedding date. When we got our pictures back for the wedding there is a wonderful close up of the unity candle and you can read everything. I would recommend!

The long awaited follow up to The Prodigy's 1997 Fat Of The Land album was showcased in London Thursday. Clips of six songs were played, 'Girlz', 'Get Up Get Off', 'Wake Up', 'Ice', '18.104.22.168' and 'Hotride'.
'Always Outnumbered, Never Outgunned' is now almost finished, and scheduled for a release in August this year.
Produced by Liam Howlett the new tracks have a full on sexy, dirty beat with any vocals way down in the mix and no immediately obvious contribution from Keith Flint as frontman.
The new material NME.COM heard was almost industrial in sound, and a marked difference to 'Baby's Got A Temper'.
Liam told to nekozine.co.uk: "This album is about reminding people what the Prodigy was always about - the beats and the music. The vocals on this record are mostly used as an extension of the sound rather than the main focal point. like 'Jilted' (1994's 'Music For The Jilted Generation') , Keith (Flint) and Maxim weren't involved musically and they are not on this album. ALL three of us will be together to do what we do and play this record live and rock it later in the year, we can't fuckin' wait!
"You will probably begin to hear stuff early summer and the new album will hit in August. "

Liam and Mamix were blown away by American Juliette's voice after hearing her burst into song while partying with pals in a Los Angeles bar.
It is also unclear if Keith Flint, who attempted to launch his own solo career last year, is still part of the set-up.

Gene Simmons from Kiss will release a new solo album 'Asshole' in April. The album will contain a cover version of Firestarter. Guitar parts are played by Dave Navarro from Jane's Addiction.
'Asshole' 'Carnival of Souls' 'If I Had A Gun' 'Weapons' 'Waiting For The Morning Light' 'Whatever Turns You On' 'Sweet & Dirty Love' 'Beautiful' 'Dog' 'Now That You're Gone' 'Black Tongue' 'I Dream A Thousand Dreams' 'Firestarter'

Tyylillisesti Flint liikkuu jossain Sex Pistolsin ja Ministryn välimaastossa. Asteroidsilla Keith Flint keuhkoaa lontoolaispainotuksilla kuin Johnny Rotten aikanaan, bändin taustajoukoista kitaristi Jim Davies muistetaan Pitchshifterin riveistä. Kokoonpanossa vaikuttaa ennakkotietojen mukaan lisäksi kaksi rumpalia, Kieron Pepper ja Tony Howlett.
Flintin levyn tuottaa Killing Joke -legenda Youth. Levyltä julkaistaan aluksi yksi video biisistä nimeltään Aim 4. Videosta vastaa ruotsalainen Jonas Åkerlund. Jonas Åkerlund on kansainvälisten markkinoiden kuumin video-ohjaaja viime vuosilta, Äkerlundin provokatiivista kädenjälkeä on nähty mm. Prodigyn, Madonnan ja U2:n videoilla.

Cashless cancer treatment in Punjab
Chandigarh, Dec 23 : Giving a major relief to cancer patients across Punjab, Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal Monday announced a new scheme that will provide cashless treatment to cancer patients.
"The chief minister gave his nod for starting the cashless scheme of providing treatment to cancer patients of the state in hospitals under the Mukh Mantri Punjab Cancer Raahat Kosh from January 2014," said an official spokesman.
Badal said that under the new scheme, there would be no need for getting prior sanction of officers for availing treatment for cancer.
"Cancer patients could avail the best treatment facilities in the empanelled hospitals at affordable cost," the spokesman said.
Badal said the scheme would prove to be a big help for cancer patients as under it the entire expenditure would be borne by the state government.
Punjab has seen an increase in the number of cancer patients in recent years, especially in the southwest Malwa region, due to excessive use of pesticides and insecticides in farming.

Great Moderation
In economics, the Great Moderation refers to a reduction in the volatility of business cycle fluctuations starting in the mid-1980s, believed to have been caused by institutional and structural changes in developed nations in the later part of the twentieth century.[1] Sometime during the mid-1980s major economic variables such as real gross domestic product growth, industrial production, monthly payroll employment and the unemployment rate began to decline in volatility.[2]
Origins of the term[edit]
Chang-Jin Kim and Charles Nelson (1999)[3] and Margaret McConnell and Gabriel Pérez-Quirós (2000)[4] calculated that U.S. output volatility had declined substantially in the early 1980s. This phenomenon was called a "great moderation" by James Stock and Mark Watson in their 2002 paper, "Has the Business Cycle Changed and Why?".[5] It was brought to the attention of the wider public by Ben Bernanke (then member and now chairman of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve) in a speech at the 2004 meetings of the Eastern Economic Association.[2][6]
The Great Moderation has been attributed to various causes:
- Improved government economic stabilization policy (particularly monetary policy)[7]
- Greater central bank independence, in which the US Federal Reserve balanced money supply more closely with demand[8][9]
- Reduced, or stabilized, government regulation and taxation[10]
- Improved inventory control and supply chain management[7]
- Economic good luck (partly from productivity and commodity price shocks)[11][12]
Researchers at the US Federal Reserve and at the European Central Bank have rejected the "good luck" explanation and attribute it mainly to improved monetary policies.[2][7][13] According to John B. Taylor, originator of the Taylor rule, the Great Moderation resulted from the abandonment of discretionary macroeconomic policy by the US Federal government, and the adoption of a rules-based macroeconomic policy instead (working mainly through monetary policy).[14] Research has indicated that US monetary policy contributed to the drop in the volatility of US output fluctuations and to the decoupling of household investment from the business cycle that characterized the Great Moderation.[15]
It has been argued that the greater predictability in economic and financial performance associated with the Great Moderation caused firms to hold less capital and to be less concerned about liquidity positions.[citation needed] This, in turn, is thought to have been a factor in encouraging increased debt levels and a reduction in risk premia required by investors.[citation needed]. According to Hyman Minsky the great moderation enabled a classic period of financial instability, with stable growth encouraging greater financial risk taking.
On the economics profession[edit]
An example of the over confidence of the economic profession in this period (prior to 2008) given by Robert Lucas, in his 2003 presidential address to the American Economic Association, where he declared that the "central problem of depression-prevention [has] been solved, for all practical purposes".[16]
Possible end[edit]
Economists speculate that the late-2000s economic and financial crisis may have brought the period of the Great Moderation to an end.[17] Richard Clarida at PIMCO considers the period of the Great Moderation to be roughly between 1987 and 2007, and it is characterised by "predictable policy, low inflation, and modest business cycles".[18]

When police mistakenly accused North Philly resident Fernando Ruiz of hiding a fugitive in his house one evening in May 2010, it seemed the situation couldn't get worse. A policeman had struck him in the head with a pistol; others arrived and began beating him on the street. One held a gun to his wife's head, right in front of their 4- and 6-year-old children. And Ruiz was arrested, taken to the hospital and then jail.
But it did get worse — much worse — his wife, Ana, says through a translator. "I told the police I wanted to go to the hospital with them and they told me, 'No. If you go to the hospital, then we'll arrest you also.' They said, 'Go home and wait for us to call you. ' The call never came."
Ruiz (not his real name, because Ana's status is still in jeopardy) was an undocumented Mexican immigrant. So instead of being released on bail, he was handed over to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), where deportation proceedings began before his criminal case was even heard. That's because Philadelphia has an unusual collaboration with ICE that allows the agency to access Philly's Preliminary Arraignment Reporting System database. Further, the city honors "ICE holds" by detaining people who might be in line for deportation. Or, as Nicole Kligerman, of the immigrant-rights group New Sanctuary Movement puts it, "it makes the Philly Police a wing of immigration."
Deputy Mayor Everett Gillison says he believes that the PARS access doesn't give ICE information that they wouldn''t already get through the FBI as part of the federal Secure Communities initiative. He says data-sharing between law-enforcement agencies is helpful and something the administration supports. However, he says that he is actively reviewing the issue of ICE holds and whether they are being deployed appropriately.
"We have always advocated that ICE should be staying consistent with their Secure Communities idea, that if they're going to hold anyone then it should be people who are serious, Level-1 threats. We believe from the information that we're getting from them that they are holding quite a lot of people who do not meet that criteria, by their own standards. How can the program be stated in one way and acted on in another? We're working to have them be a lot more selective about who a hold should be exercised on, and that dialog is continuing."
Gillison says that, when it comes to honoring ICE hold requests, Philly has to look at what other cities have done and what the fallout has been. "We're doing our due diligence to find out what our options are."
The bottom line, he says, is to detain those who are not dangerous "it is a waste of federal resources to go after them. We don't think it does anything but destabilize communities. … But that's federal policy. We want to be able to influence federal policy as much as possible."
Today, New Sanctuary supporters will wrap up a 40-day fast to demand an end to police-ICE collaboration in Philly. They estimate that the city has spent at least $500,000 since 2008 on ICE holds; the license pays only $5,600 a year. Says Kligerman, "It has resulted in a lot of tacit racial profiling... and created a lot of fear."
The DA, the mayor and Municipal Court President Judge together can decide whether to end the license to access PARS. When it came up for renewal in 2010, Mayor Nutter took a stand against using it to pick up witnesses or victims for deportation, but did not terminate the agreement. The DA did not respond to inquiries by press time.
For the Ruizes, though, the damage is done. Fernando was acquitted in June 2010. This year, he finally received a U-visa, given to victims of crime. His wife is seeking the same. But in the meantime, he lost his job and paid thousands in legal fees; the whole family needed therapy to deal with the trauma. Ana says she just wants the system to change — and for police and ICE to be run separately. Because, she says, "to be here is not a crime."
