the paradox of modern parenthood
Simple gifts
Concerted cultivation
Thousands of books have examined the effects of parents on their children. In asking, what are the effects of children on their parents, the author analyzes the many ways in which children reshape their parents' lives, whether it's their marriages, their jobs, their habits, their hobbies, their friendships, or their internal senses of self. She argues that changes in the last half century have radically altered the roles of today's mothers and fathers, making their mandates at once more complex and far less clear. Recruiting from a wide variety of sources, she dissects both the timeless strains of parenting and the ones that are brand new, and then brings her research to life in the homes of ordinary parents around the country. The result is an unforgettable series of family portraits, starting with parents of young children and progressing to parents of teens. She follows these mothers and fathers as they wrestle with some of parenthood's deepest vexations and luxuriate in some of its finest rewards. Here she makes us reconsider some of our culture's most basic beliefs about parenthood, all while illuminating the profound ways children deepen and add purpose to our lives. By focusing on parentHOOD, rather than parentING, the book is original and essential reading for mothers and fathers of today, and tomorrow. -- From publisher description.

I have always tended to use the words "Fun", "Joy," "Happiness[" rather loosely. Thus when I saw this title I was intrigued enough to check the dictionary meanings of Joy and Fun. It was enough to make me want to read the book; and I'm glad I did.
The book covers all aspects of parenting and the effects of children on parents as they progress through childhood and adolescence.
I learned of several important concepts such as "the experiencing self," vs. the "remembering self," and so on. But for me one comment says it all. One mother who was experiencing all kinds of problems with her son said she'd save a voice mail of his for like "forever."
This book's a must read for all parents and everyone contemplating parenthood..

Examines undefinable aspects of parenthood by using quanitative and qualitative reserach to measure happiness, the state of "flow" and what role housework really plays in today's family structures.
- Jenny Baum
A good book for a mystified grandmother of 70+ with very young grandchildren (4&6). Explains why a 4 year old is taking ballet, karate, gymnastics and soccer and why the grandchildren never "go out to play."
Helicopter Parents...Tiger Moms...Panda Dads...bookstore shelves groan under the weight of resources explaining the effects of parenting styles on children. But how does having children affect parents? In the fascinating "All Joy and No Fun," Jennifer Senior connects a barrage of scholarship to her own case studies of numerous middle class families in an attempt to answer this complex question.
Senior organizes her chapters loosely by stage of childhood, explaining how each stage impacts parents both physically and emotionally. Infancy leads to sleeplessness, toddlerhood to constant negotiation, middle childhood to overscheduled lives, and the teenage years to inevitable self-reflection. Senior does not offer a how-to manual for parents here; she writes about parent-HOOD not parent-ING and gracefully shows how each generation of children inevitably and irrevocably changes the generation of parents who bore them.
Senior proves her talent as a writer throughout the book, transporting the reader into a family's Brooklyn kitchen on one page then beautifully glossing a complicated academic text on the next. Additionally, Senior does not shy from offering a dissenting opinion on oft-cited studies, making her a wise and cautious guide on the subject. As the mother of a 3.5 year old, my head nodded the whole time I read as I found numerous passages that begged to be shared with friends.
Yes, Senior concludes, life as a parent might not be much "fun." But something else lies in the experience of sharing life with children: meaning, connectedness, legacy and, above all, joy.
TED alumnus Jennifer Senior asks some interesting questions and sites some new research, and since most parents love reading about other people's parenting experiences, this book is worth reading.
"And our kids have way more stuff than you and I had when we were kids. There's plenty for them to do ... and yet all of us feel like we have to be deeply, aggressively interactive and I'm not clear on whether or not kids benefit from that."
My favorite part of this book about parenting (not the same thing as a book that gives parenting advice) is that it put the concept of modern day parenting in historical context. Did you know that there were very few dedicated toys for children until about 100 years ago? Playgrounds weren't a thing until automobiles went mainstream and it became too dangerous to play in the street. Compulsory school went universal afer WWII, and childhood and youth culture as we now know it began. Women, many of whom were not in the workforce, spent LESS time with kids in the 1950s than they do now (by a factor of like 10 hours a week!). The term "parenting" iteself wasn't coined until the 1970s...All this is to say, we live in a confusing and ever changing time for what it means to be a good parent. There is much discussion here too about happiness, what it means to parent when our society puts so much priority on the happiness of the parents and children, even though it is a fleeting, evasive thing. Some interesting thoughts of parenting viewed through the lense of memory also. Much of the book discusses the challenges of parenting, but it covers the joys and satisfaction of parenting too. I really liked this book but I'm not sure it's for everyone. It feels like coursework for a sociology class. It isn't a particularly "fun" read and there's not any actual parenting advice in it. I found it validating though - parenting in general is hard. Parenting in a time when there is still much anxiety about mothers holding jobs outside the home, little extended family for support, or absolute uncertainty about what kind of upbringing best prepares kids for the "real world" - that's even harder.
Not a lot of surprises, if you've read some of the recent articles and books on modern parenting. Parents today are too hard on themselves; society has unrealistic expectations of children and parents; parents fight about who does the chores; not getting enough sleep is bad for your health; etc. I did appreciate the look at how, as a parent, it is not possible to be in "flow," because you are constantly interrupted, and that one parent usually ends up managing the time-dependent household tasks (getting the kids dressed, brushing their teeth, making appointments, etc), and that parent usually feels like the other one is not pulling their weight. Written with a friendly, engaging tone.

God is proved right by obeying and by not obeying and the principle of "Reap what you sow". I don't have to get heavy handed about anything. I need to love and help people who are hurting because of sin, sin, sin - including the sin of well-meaning Christians who know no better. Jesus actually has a better parenting style than you or most people.

Also I can do stacks more push up now than I could 2 weeks ago!! XD
This is awesome XD
Her youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=vOHXGNx-E7E
-Watch and share her story.
This girl, her name is Amanda Todd.
She posted a video on YouTube a few days ago.
She was bullied so bad it led to suicide…
She was in a webcam chat group to meet up with new and old people.
They started calling her Beautiful, Stunning, cute, Etc.
And then they asked her to flash…
So she did…..
Thinking it was nothing…A year went by and some guy she did not know, messaged her saying "Give me a 'show' or I will send your boobs."
She ignored it…..
Christmas Break came and a knock came on her door at 4 AM.
It was the police…
That person sent the picture to EVERYONE.
Everyone judged her.
Bullied her.
From ONE MISTAKE.
She ended up switching schools.
That person found out her school, friends, address once again and sent them there too.
She had no one.
Everyone hated her.
She ended up switching towns.
Then at this new school….She met this boy who she thought liked her.
He didn't….he had a girlfriend.
One day she got a note saying you better leave school.
She didn't.
A group of boys and girls including that boy, the girlfriend and more came up to her while the school surrounded her.
The girl said "Look around, No one likes you."
One kid from the group said "JUST PUNCH HER ALREADY!" So she did, and Amanda got beat really bad.
And got left.
And her dad ended up finding her in a ditch hours later.
She went home and drank bleach, to try to kill herself.
It didn't work.
The next day all over her Facebook page was written
"Drink some more bleach",
"No one cares",
"I hope she dies, "No one would cry", "Everyone hates you", "Amanda try it again we dare you"…and so much more.
She cried every night. Why did everyone hate her.
One mistake.
She started cutting so much and did drugs,and drank alcohal.
She ended up trying to kill herself again.
She failed.
She couldnt take it anymore.
At the end of the video it said "I am Amanda Todd. I just need someone." October 10th she hung herself.
She is dead. Rest in paradise, Amanda. You're beautiful. I will find a way to help stop bullying. I will share your story.
Heaven gained an angel. xo.Reblog so that everyone knows that words can hurt. No matter how much you tell people to stop bullying, the majority of them won't… until it's too late .
This is so sad. Honestly people disgust me

I never liked spinach until I made an adventurous decision to buy some at the grocery store anyways… and turn them into Oven Baked Spinach Chips.
Now, spinach is my new best veggie friend. It tastes sooo ridiculously good. Let's start baking!
• Bucket load of spinach leafs. I am talking about handfuls here!
• A bit of extra virgin olive oil, to coat the leaves. You don't need a lot - for 400 grams of spinach leaves, I used 1 tablespoon of oil.
• Herbs. I used pepper, curry powder, red pepper powder, garlic powder and thyme.
1. Preheat oven at 120°C / 250F,
2. Rinse and dry the spinach leafs,
3. Place spinach in a large bowl, pour in some olive oil to coat the leafs,
4. Add herbs, toss it all around,
5. Place some baking paper on a tray, and lay out the spinach nice and evenly,
6. Pop them in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Keep checking on them until they're crisp!
I could eat buckets of this stuff. Yum! Enjoy your crispy veggies. :)
this looks AWESOME

and man am I paying for it now. It's not like I didn't have any other options, there were plenty of other places to get food from. I made the decision to have it, this is no ones fault but mine.
By the time I was about half way through the meal I was feeling sick. I was disgusted at the saltiness of the chips, and the plastic blandness of the burger. It was revolting, and yet I continued to eat it. It seemed to simultaneously be an act of self pity, comforting myself with crappy food, and an act of self hate for my past 4 days of missed workouts. I want to blame my uni workload, as it is pretty intense at the moment, but if I was really dedicated, I would have just got up and done it, no excuses.
When I woke up this morning and went down for breakfast, the mere thought of putting anything else in my stomach made me almost vomit. I still feel ill even now.
I need a complete psychological overhaul, I've hit the wall as I always do, but this time I will combat this head on. Time for some self forgiveness.
The Ultimate Grocery Guides!
I made two versions of this guide, one for those of you with full regular kitchens and one for those of you in college dorms, offices or anywhere that has limited cooking possibilities. The produce sections are up to you, customize the list with whatever specific fruits and veggies you like but I included how many I'd recommend getting each week. For the full kitchen people that means plenty of variety to make your meals with and for the limited space people that means less risk of produce spoiling. I hope these come in handy when you think about your next trip! :)

Sen. Harkin's Plan to Boost Retirement Savings: Praised and Criticized
Posted By Carole Fleck On July 30, 2012 @ 10:54 am In Money Talk | Comments Disabled
Sen. Tom Harkin's proposa [2]l to help shore up America's retirement system [3], which would give future generations a better shot at retiring with adequate savings [4], has reignited the debate over America's retirement crisis.
The plan was outlined in a report that Harkin, a Democrat and chairman of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions, released on Friday. It would:
*Create a privately-run retirement plan that would provide lifetime income benefits similar to a pension.
*Allow funds to be pooled and professionally managed.
*Be portable so workers can take their benefits with them as they change jobs.
*Enable employers to offer a benefit without taking on the risk and administrative burden that some face in offering 401(k) plans.
*Boost Social Security payments [5] by about $60 a month
Harkin said workers would be able to access the savings plan and pool their assets through their employers' payroll withholding system. A board of trustees consisting of qualified employee, retiree and employer representatives would oversee the funds.
Though the trustees would be acting as fiduciaries, employers wouldn't be held to fiduciary responsibility in choosing, administering or managing the funds. Employers would be responsible only for enrolling workers automatically and making sure employees' contributions are processed.
"After a lifetime of hard work, people deserve the opportunity to live out their golden years with dignity and financial independence," Harkin said in his report. "But for most of the middle class, the dream of a secure retirement [6] is slipping out of reach."
Supporters say the proposal is sorely needed given the current state of Americans' paltry savings for retirement [7]. Critics charge that it doesn't go far enough to boost workers' ability to retire comfortably [8].
David Madland, director of the American Worker Project at the Center for American Progress Action Fund, praised Harkin's plan as a "big step" in the right direction.
But Jane White, author of "America, Welcome to the Poorhouse," mocked Harkin's assertion that his plan was "bold." In a blog for the Huffington Post, [9]she says the plan missed the boat by failing to include reforms to drastically underfunded 401(k) plans.
She has offered her own retirement reforms. They would mandate more generous employer contributions to workers' 401(k)s — equal to about 9 percent of pay for Fortune 500 companies and 6 percent for other companies — and require that vesting for workers be immediate rather than waiting three months to a year to own their plans.
"The reason why the U.S. is among the pension poorest in the world isn't that not enough people are covered by a 401(k) plan, but that those who are receive a measly matching contribution equal to 3 percent of pay," she wrote. "That compares to 9 percent for Australia, 11.8 percent for Denmark, 8 percent for Hungary, 6.5 percent for Mexico, 7.3 percent for Poland and 9 percent for Slovakia.
She cited a report on retirement savings for Australians, which projected that they'd have between $500,000 to $700,000 in assets when they retire, compared with a median balance of less than $100,000 for the typical American retiree.
"To simply require all U.S. employers to set up an inadequate plan is a disservice to the American population," White wrote.
Inadequate retirement savings contributed significantly to older people's ability to hang on to their homes. An AARP study on the foreclosure crisis [10] found that 1.5 million Americans over the age of 50 lost their homes between 2007 and 2011. Half of the households between the ages of 65 and 74 had no retirement savings; those who do saved an average of $65,000, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The report Harkin released last week had other sobering findings:
*The difference between the savings working-age Americans have accumulated for retirement and the amount they should have already saved is $6.6 trillion.
*Half of all Americans have less than $10,000 in savings.
*Just one in five working Americans will get pension income during retirement.
*In 2010, nearly 6 million Americans over the age of 65 were living in poverty.
"Retirement is supposed to be a time when you cherish your family," says one woman, who was quoted in Harkin's report. "For me, retirement will be the time to pick up a second, low-paying career."

Many of us have encountered this message at one point or another:
Most likely the gif you're trying to upload is under the size limit of 1000kb (when you upload gifs that are 1000kb+, your gif is still uploaded but it just doesn't move) yet you're still getting this frustrating message.
So why does this message pop up? It's all about the colours of the gif. Tumblr doesn't like gifs that are too saturated in cyan or magenta colours.
I've listed some fixes. Go through them in order and if that particular method does not work, move on to the next.
1. CMYK vs. RGB
Make sure your gif is in RGB mode and not CMYK mode. Here's a screenshot of where you should be looking:
Make sure that the "RGB Color" option is checked. If your gif was originally in CMYK and you've changed it to RGB, you can try uploading again and it should work now. Keep in mind that the colouring of your gif WILL be changed… It will look more dull, but you can always recolour your gif though there's no guarantee that your gif will upload after recolouring.
If your gif was originally in RGB yet the gif still doesn't upload, move on to the next method.
2. Colour Overlay
This is my go-to method and works about 80% of the time.
Open your gif file and create a new fill layer for solid colour.
If your gif is oversaturated in cyan, the solid colour you should be choosing is a light pink. If your gif is oversaturatedin magenta, the solid colour you should be choosing is a light blue. Here are two examples:
Now you can play around with the layer settings. What you're aiming to do is lessen the harshness of the problem colour without changing the original colouring of the gif too much. I usually set the layer to multiply and lower the opacity to my liking.
Try uploading. If it doesn't work, try the next method.
3. Vibrance/Saturation
Because the problem with the gif is that it is too saturated, it's an obvious fix to simply desaturate the gif a bit though this isn't a desirable method because the gif just isn't as pretty anymore after this. Playing with vibrance can also help.
Above the original layers of the gif, create a new adjustment layer for "Vibrance".
Next, play with the settings until you feel like the gif is desaturated enough.
You really don't need to decrease the settings by too much. Decrease them by a little, then try uploading… If it doesn't work, decrease the settings a little more. Keep doing this until the gif no longer looks appealing. Time to try another method if this is the case.
4. Changing the colouring/gradient maps
Now we're at the last resort stage. We've been trying to keep the gif as close to the original colouring as possible but if you've tried the above steps and are still not satisfied, it's time to change the colouring altogether.
You can try "Channel mixer" and giving your gif a different tint that isn't cyan or magenta.
Worst case scenario, you can apply a gradient map. Your gif will definitely upload now but the colouring will be very different from the original.
So there you have it! I hope this was at least somewhat helpful. If you need any clarifications, you can simply send me an ask.

This brief demystifies the technical meaning of going to the "back of the line"—a phrase adopted by lawmakers to convey the intent to grant legal status to unauthorized immigrants only after existing backlogs have been cleared—by explaining what "the line" refers to, who is in it, and what it means to be at the back of it.
This report examines Canada's striking openness and optimism towards immigration and multiculturalism. Juxtaposing the widespread support of immigration among Canadian citizens with growing anti-immigrant sentiment and opposition to multicultural policies across Europe and the United States, the author seeks to uncover the reasons behind this Canadian "exceptionalism."
This final report summarizes and reflects upon the key findings of the Improving EU and U.S. Immigration Systems: Learning from Experience comparative research project undertaken by MPI and the European University Institute through a grant from the European Commission.
While aspects of the U.S. immigration system facilitate newcomers' contributions to economic growth and competitiveness, others undermine them. Reforms are needed to enhance the job-creating power of U.S. employers and strengthen the system's ability to select effectively from the large pool of foreign workers.
Two competing models for selecting economic-stream immigrants are now prevalent in advanced industrialized economies: points-based and employer-led selection. Increasingly, however, hybrid selection systems are being created, implementing best practices from each selection process.
Drawing on experiences from Asia, Europe, North America, and the Pacific region, this report presents eight strategies that represent best practices developed by immigrant-receiving countries to increase the economic contributions of immigration.
Migrant-sending and migrant-receiving countries rarely collaborate on migration issues because the structure of global migration systems ensures they often disagree about core policy issues. This report shows that migration collaboration makes sense when states share common goals they cannot achieve on their own.
In a report by MPI's Labor Markets Initiative, noted economist and Georgetown University Public Policy Institute Professor Harry J. Holzer examines the economic reasoning and research on these questions and looks at the policy options that shape the impact of less-skilled immigration on the economy. The discussion is on what policy reform would best serve native-born American workers, consumers, and employers, as well as the overall U.S. economy.

Sunset Hill and Phnom Doh Kromom Pagoda
Stunning views
What we say:
Located before the air strip, 7 km down a side dirt road off the road to Bou Sra, this is a great place to ask your motodop to stop after returning from the waterfalls from a long day of trekking and swimming.
You can also stop at Phnom Doh Kromom Pagoda, which is a small temple off the next road to the right heading toward the traffic circle. For the sunset view, on the road back to town, turn right on the road before you get to the the local school.
Head there around 18:00, as the hilltop overlooks the setting sun, with a spectacular view of the rolling hills of Mondulkiri.
Brett spends his time relaxing on the beach while sipping on a mojito or exploring Cambodia and Laos looking for strange and unusual things.

ATM Surcharges
|April 1998Volume 4, Number 4
|JEL classification: G21, D43
Author: James J. McAndrews
The recent spread of ATM surcharges has sparked significant debate among consumers, policymakers, and ATM owners. Much of this debate has focused on the direct costs that surcharges impose on consumers. The use of ATM surcharges, however, also raises broader questions about ATM deployment, customer convenience, and the nature of banking competition.

How to Paint Nails Correctly
Are you ready to learn how to paint you and your friends' nails correctly? Well, follow these steps and you will be a pro in no time!
An editor has suggested that this article be merged with:
"How to Paint Your Own Nails"
Per the merge policy, if these topics are determined to be similar but distinct, then the articles will remain separate. Please comment on the discussion page. Notice added on 2011-12-17.
1Grab all of the items you will need: Towel, cotton balls, Q-Tips, toothpicks (optional), nail filer (emery board), nail polish remover, nail polish, decals (optional), aloe, scrub, lotion, hot rock, nail clipper, top coat polish, cuticle oil (optional) , marbles in a bowl of water with lemon zest, and cuticle pusher.Ad
2First, remove any other chipped nail polish if needed. Then clip your nails straight across. After they are super straight, file down the edges. After that, place the nails in a bowl of lemon zest and marbles. After about half a minute, take then out, dry them and do the same with the other hand.
3Dry off the hands and wrap the hot rock in a towel and microwave it for a minute. take it out and massage the hands with the towel and rock. Then, scrub the hands with the scrub and wash the hands. After that, massage the hands with lotion.
4Drip cuticle oil on the cuticles and massage the cuticles. Then lightly push down the cuticles.Then use the cuticle pusher to remove any dirt in the nails. Shake the nail polish and roll it in your hands for 25-30 seconds.
5For all the nails, do a long stripe across the middle of the nail, and then one on the left and one on the right. If any nail polish gets on the skin or if you mess up, put nail polish remover on a Q-Tip and remove it.
6And decals or decorations with toothpicks and nail pens if you want.Ad
We could really use your help!

- If you have a piece of cotton ball stuck in the nail polish brush, make sure you take it out because it will mess up your manicure.
- Don't pick up too much nail polish with the nail polish brush. It will take longer to dry and can turn out clumpy and messy.
- If you get nail polish on your skin, remove it with a Q-tip dipped in nail polish remover.
- If you've run out of nail polish remover, you can remove your nail polish with another thick coat of nail polish. Once you've applied the coat of nail polish, take a cotton ball immediately and wipe off all of the nail polish.
- Don't get nail polish remover on furniture or painted surfaces because you will ruin the furniture.

Youth for International Socialism: Global Warming: a Marxist perspective (via mohandasgandhi)
You think that man is still going to put resources in to figuring out how to keep the genie in the bottle?…OK.
You don't fight fire with fire. You fight fire with water…We're not gonna fight capitalism with Black capitalism. We're gonna fight capitalism with socialism. Socialism is the people. If you're afraid of socialism, you're afraid of yourself.
Fred Hampton (via atreegrowsinbrixton)
Until you explain to me why, after Soviet Union dissolved in 1991, socialism is still so great, do not piss on my leg and tell me it's raining or pretend to know what is going on between my ears.

If the Seahawks have a "secret superstar," it's middle linebacker Bobby Wagner. The kid had an amazing rookie season in 2012, and not nearly enough people are talking about it.
Despite playing only half-time for the first 4 games as the Seahawks eased him into the NFL, as well as losing considerable time to backups in the 3 blowout wins, Wagner still finished the year with 139 tackles, 7th most in the entire NFL. He also 58 stops (tackles made in the backfield or within 2 yards of the ling of scrimmage), which was 5th most in the NFL.
That's an amazing season for anyone, but to do that as a rookie is another thing entirely. That's the type of season that deserved Defensive Rookie of the Year honors, though sadly Wagner was overlooked by the voters.
So what should we expect from Wagner in 2013? I expect him to be better now that he has a year under his belt, but seriously, how much better can he be?
It is entirely possible that Wagner will play better in 2013, but actually have worse stats to show for it. That's the thing about defensive stats, so much is dependant on the score and the opposing offense's play calling, things that are out of the control of players like Wagner.
Besides, Seattle's D-line run stuffers will be healthy again. When Red Bryant and company are dominating up front, there's just no reason for teams to try and run the ball the ball. That will likely lead to less chances for tackles for linebackers like Wagner.
Ultimately, the area where we're likely to see the most improvement out of Wagner is in his pass coverage skills. While this wasn't a weakness for him, it's the one area where there is ample room for growth.

It was close!!!!
I almost cheated today:lol: but i got up and made eggs! went to work out and now to clean house! I am glad i did not cheat!! I had a new tv dinner and it was good. (only 7 carbs. still within my count) I am on day 4 and it was hard. I think it has passed!!!:jumpjoy: Hope everyone is having a great day, now off to clean!!!
It feels so much better to be strong the next day rather than to be in a carb funk and kick your self around... :clap:
What brand TV dinner? Did you try one of the Frozen Atkin ones?
I have yet to make it to Walmart where they sell them locally...
They are so much more expensive than I thought they would be at my Walmart. They were about $3.49 each. Other meals like Lean Cuisine are like $2.78 here. I looked at the price and thought I could make that and freeze my own portions so I passed on them.
Way to go! I don't seem to have your will power today, I tried the new atkins italian sausage premavera and it was good. Tiny portion but not bad flavor
Those frozen meals are always in my freezer. There are no excuses if I am bored with my cooking, want to avoid fast food, or too tired to fix myself supper. I thought about the cost of other DIET PLANS (that ship meals to your house) and decided that buying the Atkins' products would be more economical than going that route. I am amazed at the small portions and realize that I have been eating over-sized portions of meat and veggies. This week I am measuring and weighing everything I put in my mouth, even pork rinds that I have been eating straight out of the bag.
I have yet to try one of the frozen atkins meals. Walmart is the only place I believe around me that sells it. I keep checking my local market but nothing..
I love LOVE large portions, I have always loved to eat and eat till I was full. I know I stretched my tummy out in doing so and all the portions at restruants are to blaim too.
I have heard the atkins frozen meals are small but perhaps that is the amount all along you are to eat and then wait till your brain catches up and then your full?
Still i want to try at least one...

See also:Oxfordshire
See also:family . I-Ie is said to have been educated at Cambridge, but
See also:Dennis assures us that " to his certain knowledge he understood neither
See also:Greek nor Latin." He travelled abroad early, and seems to have resided in
See also:France . It is possible that he witnessed in
See also:Paris the performances of some of
See also:Moliere's earliest comedies; and he seems, from an allusion in one of his plays, to have been personally acquainted with Bussy Rabutin . On his return to
See also:London he studied the
See also:law at one of the Inns of
See also:Court . His tastes were those of a
See also:fine
See also:gentleman, and he indulged freely in pleasure . Sometime soon after the Restoration he composed his
See also:comedy of The Comical Revenge or Love in a Tub, which introduced him to
See also:Lord Buckhurst, afterwards the
See also:earl of Dorset . This was brought out at the Duke's theatre in 1664, and a few copies were printed in the same year . It is partly in rhymned heroic
See also:verse, like the
See also:stilted tragedies of the Howards and Killigrews, but it contains comic scenes that are exceedingly bright and fresh . The sparring between
See also:Sir
See also:Frederick and the Widow introduced a
See also:style of wit hitherto unknown upon the English stage . The success of this
See also:play was very
See also:great, but Etheredge waited four years before he repeated his experiment . Meanwhile he gained the highest reputation as a poetical beau, and moved in the circle of Sir
See also:Charles
See also:Sedley, Lord Rochester and the other
See also:noble wits of the
See also:day . In 1668 he brought out She would if she could, a comedy in many respects admirable, full of
See also:action, wit and spirit, although to the last degree frivolous and immoral .
But in this play Etheredge first shows himself a newpower in literature; he has nothing of the rudeness of his predecessors or the grossness of his contemporaries . We move in an
See also:airy and fantastic
See also:world, where flirtation is the only serious business of
See also:life . At this
See also:time Etheredge was living a life no less frivolous and unprincipled than those of his Courtals and Freemans . He formed an
See also:alliance with the famous actress Mrs
See also:Elizabeth
See also:Barry; she
See also:bore him a daughter, on whom he settled £6000, but who, unhappily, died in her youth . His
See also:wealth and wit, the distinction and charm of his
See also:manners, won Etheredge the general worship of society, and his temperament is best known by the names his contemporaries gave him, of " gentle
See also:George " and " easy Etheredge." Rochester up-braided him for inattention to literature; and at last, after a silence of eight years, he came forward with one more play, unfortunately his last . The
See also:Man of Mode or Sir Fopling Flutter, indisputably the best comedy of intrigue written in
See also:England before the days of Congreve, was acted and printed in 1676, and enjoyed an unbounded success . Besides the merit of its
See also:plot and wit, it. had the
See also:personal charm of being supposed to satirize, or at least to paint, persons well known in London . Sir Fopling Flutter was a portrait of Beau Hewit, the reigning exquisite of the
See also:hour; in Dorimant the poet
See also:drew the earl of Rochester, and in Medley a portrait of himself; while even the drunken shoemaker was a real character, who made his
See also:fortune from being thus brought into public
See also:notice . After this brilliant success Etheredge retired from literature; his gallantries and his gambling in a few years deprived him of his fortune, and he looked about for a
See also:rich match . He was knighted before 168o, and gained the
See also:hand and the
See also:money of a rich widow . He was sent by Charles II. on a
See also:mission to the
See also:Hague, and in
See also:March 1685 was appointed
See also:resident
See also:minister in the imperial
See also:German court at
See also:Regensburg . He was very uncomfortable in
See also:Germany, and after three and a
See also:half years' residence
See also:left for Paris .
He had collected a library at Regensburg, some volumes of which are in the theological
See also:college there . His MS. despatches are preserved in the
See also:British Museum, where they were discovered and described by Mr Gosse in 1881; they add very largely to our knowledge of Etheredge's career . He died in Paris, probably in 1691, for
See also:Narcissus
See also:Luttrell notes in
See also:February 1692 that " Sir George Etherege, the
See also:late
See also:King
See also:James'
See also:ambassador to Vienna, died lately in Paris." Etheredge deserves to hold a more distinguished place in English literature than has generally been allotted to him . In a dull and heavy age, he inaugurated a
See also:period of genuine wit and sprightliness . He invented the comedy of intrigue, and led the way for the masterpieces of Congreve and Sheridan . Before his time the manner of
See also:Ben
See also:Jonson had prevailed in comedy, and traditional " humours " and typical eccentricities, instead of real characters, had crowded the comic stage . Etheredge paints with a
See also:light, faint hand, but it is from nature, and his portraits of fops and
See also:beaux are simply unexcelled . No one knows better than he how to
See also:present a gay
See also:young gentleman, a Dorimant, " an unconfinable rover after amorous adventures." His
See also:genius is as light as
See also:thistle-down; he is frivolous, without force of conviction, without principle; but his wit is very sparkling, and his style pure and singularly picturesque . No one approaches Etheredge in delicate touches of
See also:dress, furniture and scene; he makes the fine airs of London gentlemen and ladies live before our eyes even more vividly than Congreve does; but he has less insight and less energy than Congreve . Had he been poor or ambitious, he might have been to England almost what Moliere was to France, but he was a rich man living at his ease, and he disdained to excel in literature . Etheredge was " a
See also:fair, slender, genteel man, but spoiled his countenance with drinking." His
See also:con-temporaries all agree in acknowledging that he was the soul of affability and sprightly
See also:good-nature . The life of Etheredge was first given in detail by Edmund Gosse in Seventeenth Century Studies (1883) .

Kids really like this guy!
In 1983, the population of the United States was about 234 million people. And on February 28th of that year 106 million Americans sat down to watch the last episode of M*A*S*H* on CBS. 106 million people!!! Almost half of all of the people in the country (ok 45% go away) all laughing* together at one program. Can you imagine what it must have been like? Cars left abandoned on the sides of highways… whole industries lying fallow for one sweet hour… civilization ground to a halt… mass hysteria, is what I'm saying.
Which is to say: Alan Alda is an accomplished man. At 78, you might imagine him resting content with his unprecedented cultural impact. Instead, he's founded what I think is just one of the coolest educational ideas I've heard of in a while.
It's called the Flame Contest: every year Alda's organizations challenges scientists to explain a tricky question to kids. There have been three questions so far: "What is a flame?" in 2012; "what is time?" last year; and "what is color?" currently accepting submissions.
Scientists are invited to send in written or video explanations. And then, the coolest part: the winning submission is chosen by kids! In fact, the questions are chosen by kids as well. It's a great example of kid-adult collaboration - and I love, specifically, that it doesn't just connect kids with adults; it connects kids with leading experts in their fields, and encourages those experts to take kids' ideas and opinions absolutely seriously.
Here is the winning video answering the question, "what is a flame?" It is so good, and it makes so much sense that kids selected it: it's funny, features a genuinely impressive pop-parody song at the end, and is juuuuuust edgy enough to be surprising. (That guy chained to a wall in a room of fire up there? He does not escape.) Also I know what a flame is now. I am not going to tell you.
I first learned about the Flame Contest in this great article by Dahlia Lithwick at Slate. Read it! Watch the videos! And pass on any other great examples of kid-adult collaboration you find out there.
- Spencer (email@example.com)
*Crying? MASH was a comedy, right?
I love Spencer's re-post below from "Math With Bad Drawings" about asking questions! It brings to mind a book I keep handy on my shelf, Asking Better Questions by Norah Morgan and Juliana Saxton. Great reference book for how to think about question-posing that will breed engagement and critical thinking!
Now, back to trying to remember a time in my youth when a really great question was asked and a great conversation followed…
"I got a tough one for ya"
When I was a first year teacher, I tried to anticipate questions my kids might ask, in my lesson plan. [Waits for the imaginary roomful of teachers to stop laughing.] I know, I know, but I was terrified that a student would ask me something I wasn't ready for! Which they did, obviously, and which did derail my meticulous planning, definitely, but which of course also led to some of the best teaching I ever managed to do. ("Why isn't Pluto a planet any more?" produced a class-long discussion about what it does and doesn't mean to classify things that I still think about for, like, fun. PLUTO4LIIIFE)
So from one of my favorite teaching blogs, Math with Bad Drawings, one of my favorite teaching blog posts:
in which Ben Orlin tells the story of the day a student in his math class refused to believe that the repeating decimal 0.9999… is, in fact, equal to 1. (Which apparently it… is?)
Orlin's response is a beautiful example of meeting a confused student on their own terms, approaching a problem from many angles, and using their existing intuitions to guide them to new understanding. Since there is a correct answer in this case, it's still a fairly guided discussion; but all in all it left me hoping I can answer my next head-thumper with this much grace and brains. Also, the math is super interesting if you're a nerd (MATH4LIIIFE)
So: when have you learned from, been stumped by, asked, answered, wished for, or wondered about a really great question?
As a follow up to an article on disability and language, I think that this piece highlights how language is shaped by and shapes the systems we work within, particularly education. It is wonderful that students who have felt marginalized now have a chance to feel safer within their communities. But I wonder: is it enough to blur the binary? Or should it be eliminated entirely?
What do you think?

2013 was the year of MOOCs. Whether you want to sit in on a course at MIT or brush up on some entrepreneurial skills in the form of a skillshare class, you can do it. It's not surprising then when you see that Coursera is one of the "Top 10 Ed-Tech Startups of 2013." However, one of the biggest things of note for me in the Top 10 article was the amount of investment funds that the companies were able to pull. This made me think about the education system as a whole and how we could possibly harness the entrepreneurial spirit WITHIN the system. How can we encourage venture capitalists to invest in the system we already have in place? Where can innovation come from and can we treat education like social entrepreneurship?
What do you all think!?
As technology continues to grow and shift, this brings up a large question about what role it will play in technology.
Interesting read about what google glass might bring to the table!
I wanted to take a moment to honor Nelson Mandela's contributions to promoting the importance of education, social justice and engaged citizenry. Below, a link to a short Huff Post piece that notes Mandela's work to increase educational access and quality of education in South Africa and beyond. A link to some important Mandela quotes follows. The Huff Post author explains how Mandela reached her…how has he reached you? And how can his life and work help us to reach our students?

Having worked in special education, language appears to be one of the most fluctuating elements of that field. Not because it doesn't matter, but because it does, greatly. The words we choose to describe each other and our students define how we view them.
Take a moment to read this incredible assessment of the power of language and memory when it comes to disability.


text: In a time of prolific online espionage, crackdowns on file-sharing, and a growing concern for the 3D printing of illegal items and copyright protected artefacts, Disarming Corruptor by Matthew Plummer-Fernandez is a free software application that helps people to circumvent these issues. Inspired by encryption rotor machines such as the infamous Enigma Machine, the application runs an algorithm that is used to both corrupt STL files into a visually-illegible state by glitching and rotating the 3D mesh, and to allow a recipient to reverse the effect to restore it back to its original form. The file recipient would need both the application and the unique seven digit settings used by the sender, entering the incorrect settings would only damage the file further.

I wore the ring for about 5 hours, sweated a little but it still shined perfectly and was true to being sterling silver! I love it, i let my husband see before i got to and he was suprised that it looked that awesome! This ring is for my 1 year anniversary and Im not big on fancy things so i don't need a 2 or 3 thousan dollar ring to be happy so thats why we got this! Its perfect and I am sure more compliments are to come! I cannot wait to go to work to show it off! Thanks overstock!
LOVE THIS! I've had it since March and I wear it everyday, shower, work, exercise with it on. I have only taken it off a few times. At first I felt the center stone was a bit large but it grows on you and I couldn't be happier. I get tons of compliments on it and it shines like my real diamond. I just ordered another set in a smaller size! Amazing ring set!
I ordered this ring on Dec 29 and recieved it on Jan 3. A previous ring I ordered from overstock arrived a lot quicker but I purchased this ring right before the new year so I wasn't too worried about how long it would take and I think it arrived pretty quick considering. Anyway, I love it! Before I ordered it I debated between this ring and another and I decided to go with this one because it has two bands and I thought it would look better on my fingers since they're a little on the big side. Well it is beautiful and it looks fantastic on my hand. The center stone is not too big, I think it's a great size and it doesn't stick out too much which I was afraid of. The stones have a great shine and sparkle. It's a fantastic ring for an equally fantastic price. I would definitely recommend this ring to anyone. It's beautiful and it's greatly priced.
I wanted to wait a while before In posted my review to really see if this ring was what I though it would be. When the ring arrived it was fabulous! the stone is a little big but doesnt look fake...I have washed my hands with the ring on and cooked dinner..no tarnish or cracks, no change in the stone clarity, this is my best purchase yet. I am very pleased.
Beautiful Rings. Everyone thinks they are the real thing. Just large enough to be believable and for such a low price. Recommend highly
This is a really nice ring. Looks really nice on your hand. It doesnt look fake at all. In fact one of my co-workers thought it was real. Its a dainty ring and the stone isnt too large. It fits just a hair too loose but not enough that it would fall off so I will be keeping it. Actually the bands fit well its the ring with the stone in it that is a bit bigger so it moves around a bit. The only negative thing I have to say is that the two bands that come with it have tiny stones all the way around the bands so you feel them somewhat against your other fingers. Its not enough that it would be an annoyance but thought it was worth mentioning in the review. I've only had it a few days so I cannot comment on how it will hold up or if it will turn. So far so good!!
Its a beautiful just not worth $$.. ive had it gor less then a week and 4 the diamonds have all ready fallen out.
Online the ring looks nice, but once it arrived I wasn't pleased at all. The ring is very thin and the center stone looks really fake.
A stone fell out of the main ring 2 days after I received it!! Other than that it is a pretty ring.
I purchased this ring set to give my fiance time to buy a real one. After two weeks one stone fell out of the band. The actual ring is pretty and looks real. It is the other two bands that I am loosing the stones on. I know you get what you paid for so it doesn't suprise me that the stones are falling out. While I won't buy this exact ring again, I will purchase another ring set in the near future.

Cancer Fighting Drugs From the Reef
This recent report from NBC Universal sheds light on what a lot of hobbyists already know in their heart, that the reef has untold riches to benefit the world if we would just take more time to study them. The sheer diversity of life on the reefs and the incredible number of compounds found in even the smallest life forms makes it statistically probable that there are many biological and chemical tools available that we just haven't figured out yet. Take cancer for instance. Corals seem to be impervious to cancers, even though they can live for hundreds if not thousands of years. Octopuses and sharks share this incredible trait. Also, how many reef animals can regenerate limbs, even with the stressors of an ultracompetitive reef world trying to eat any critter who is weak or wounded? The number of poisons and toxins alone should be a clue that there are a lot of cool compounds available, even in our lowly aquariums. This video special really dives into the latest developments in this field. Take a moment to follow this LINK to see the other videos.… More:

"Venezuelan driver and team complete more testing"
Article By: Race Tech Development
March 30, 2011 - In a few weeks time, the F2000 Championship Series opening round will take place and Robert La Rocca and his Autoerrante-HPTech Motorsport are primed and ready to go. Recently competing in a pair of events at both the Virginia International Raceway (VIR) and famed Road Atlanta, La Rocca added another pair of wins to his resume and completed his final phase of testing heading into his national campaign.
"We wanted to travel to a few circuits outside of Florida that would really push our Ralph Firman Race car, the team and myself to the limits," expressed Robert La Rocca. "The season is fast approaching and I now feel that we are extremely prepared as we head to the opening round April 8-10 at VIR."
Looking to get up to speed early on the first of two race weekends, the Autoerrante-HP Tech Motorsport crew travelled to VIR for the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) event. Using the race as a test for the opening round of the F2000 Championship Series, La Rocca was up to speed right out of the box. As the fastest driver all weekend long, La Rocca set very competitive times to last season's Pro Series event there and had high hopes when he left the facility.
"The team and car are really coming together and we are hitting our stride at the right time. It is a good feeling to look at last year's results and see that our times in testing would put us close to the front of the field."
Enjoying very little time off, the Autoerrante-HP Tech Motorsport squad trekked south to Road Atlanta for the SCCA National event. Just as he did the weekend prior, La Rocca was very fast on the first day of testing and maintained that throughout the race weekend. Setting quick times with each passing session, La Rocca claimed the top step of the podium in his final test before the F2000 Championship Series kicks off.
La Rocca added, "I can not thank the Autoerrante-HP Tech Motorsports team enough for all of their hard work and efforts in preparation for this season. The boys at the shop have done a great job preparing our new Ralph Firman Race car and have been flawless trackside. I have high expectations for 2011 and hope that we all have the chance to celebrate together in victory lane."

Flames' Baertschi is week-to-week
Calgary, AB (Sports Network) - The Calgary Flames announced Thursday that forward Sven Baertschi is week-to-week with a hip flexor injury.
"I was skating and my left skate seemed to have caught a rut in the ice and my legs kind of went into a splits position," Baertschi said of the injury, which was suffered during Tuesday's practice. "I felt pain immediately and left the ice to have it checked. It's very disappointing to learn that it's a hip flexor injury that will keep me out of the line-up."
The rookie Baertschi has appeared in four games for the Flames this season. He's tallied three goals during his two-year career over nine contests.

Once again the TinCaps couldn't win for losing Tuesday night.
Down three runs early to Kane County in Geneva, Ill., they rallied to tie it with a three-run fifth and then held the Cougars scoreless for six more innings before three errors in the 12th inning opened the door for a 4-3 Kane County victory.
Carlos Penalver opened the home 12th by reaching safely on a fielding error by third baseman Dustin Peterson, and then a throwing error by catcher Ryan Miller on Jacob Hannemann's sacrifice bunt attempt left Penalver on third and Hannemann on first.
Nick Mutz intentionally walked Danny Lockhart to load the bases, and then another throwing error, this time by shortstop Franchy Cordero, allowed Penalver to score the winning run for Kane County (3-2).
It was the third straight loss for the TinCaps (1-4), who moved infielder Rey Bruguera to Lake Elsinore in Advanced-A on Tuesday while picking up outfielder Ronnie Richardson from extended spring training.
