In Fake Classes Scandal, UNC Fails Its Athletesand Whistle-Blower: Beginning in the 1990s and continuing at least through 2011, UNCs Department of African, African American, and Diaspora Studies offered more than 200 lecture courses that never met. The department also sponsored hundreds of independent study classes of equally dubious value. Internal reviews have identified forged faculty signatures and more than 500 grades changed without authorization. The students affected were disproportionately football and basketball players.

From the article:
Blum's office did not respond to interview requests left with Blum's spokesman by The Dispatch. It's unclear how Johnson's family came to know him or why he was making a personal loan at a high interest rate.
One day after the home loan was signed, on March 10, 2011, the Johnsons borrowed $2 million at an interest rate of 12 percent from a software developer in Iowa named Rodney L. Blum, who this month won a seat in the U.S. House.
Blum's office did not respond to interview requests left with Blum's spokesman by The Dispatch. It's unclear how Johnson's family came to know him or why he was making a personal loan at a high interest rate.
What the eff? Why? I just don't get why you would get a high-interest loan from some shmoe on the street. And of course this shmoe is now a House Rep.

I remember some time at the beginning of the season, someone mentioned that if Kirk Cousins was really good and ready to lead a team as a starting QB, Kyle Shanahan probably would've had the Browns trade for him during this year's draft as they really didn't have a QB then. If anyone in the NFL knew how good Cousins really was, it would've been K. Shanahan.

Without the right kind of information, shopping for kids clothes can be a daunting task. Any shopper needs to be equipped with the right kind of information so as to shop effectively and efficiently for clothes. This is also the case for those who seek to buy clothes for their kids in Turkey. One of the main reasons for this state of affairs is the fact that the shops are fragmented in different places.
For instance, whereas some shops specialize in selling clothes for baby girls, others specialize in selling clothes for boys. Others sell clothes suitable for the winter whereas other sell clothes suitable for summer.
1. Alibo Trade Company
Alibo Trade Company is a leader when it comes to children clothing. The company is situated in Istanbul. Basically, the company specializes in the supply of dresses for baby girls as well as bodysuits for boys. The products are available both in retail and wholesale. If one buys 25 pieces of a certain product, the price will be much lower in comparison to just one piece. There are other additional benefits when one elects to purchase their clothes in the shop. For example, their products are made entirely of cotton. This is an advantage since cotton is suitable for children. Their prices are also competitive and affordable.
2. Aziz Bebe Tekstil Company
Aziz Bebe Tekstil Company is also a leader in the area of baby clothing. The company is situated in Umraniye, Istanbul. The company supplies in the supply of baby blankets. Furthermore, the company's products are made of 100% cotton. This is born out of the realization that cotton is the most suitable material for children clothes. According to them, their products are soft touch. Their products not only come in different colors, but also in various designs. The company also promises to provide quick and safe deliver of their products to their customers.
3. Hazal Tekstil Giyim Company
Hazal Tekstil Giyim Company has created a name for itself in the field of children clothes. The company is situated in Samanyolu, Istanbul. The company specializes in the provision of short sleeved t-shirts for babies. The company also supplies bamboo t-shirts to their wide clientele. According to them, their products are made of top materials with exquisite workmanship. The company also prides itself as having a stringent quality control system. This system ensures that the company manufactures some of the best products in the market. The company has totally embraced the internet. Thus, it is possible to purchase their products timely from the internet.
4. Alarga Tekstil Kumas Company
Alarga Tekstil Kumas Company has also created a name for itself in the field of baby clothes. The company operates in various parts of Turkey including Istanbul. One of the reasons why the company is unique is their ability to product clothes made of organic merino wool. Needless to say, the clothes are usually warm and hence suitable for the children during winter. The clothes are also available in different sizes and colours. For those who like plain clothes, there is plenty for them. Likewise, those who like checked clothes have a wide variety to choose from. These clothes can be purchased from the internet.
5. Cahide Erden Company
Cahide Erden Company is a dominant name in the field of baby clothing for good reasons. The company specializes in the supply of organic baby clothing. The company is situated in Istanbul. Their products are available in different colours and designs. The packaging of their clothes is also magnificent. The company also offers competitive pricing for their products. It is an array of the aforementioned factors that have made the company a leader in the market.
One can apply for an online Turkish visa to go and purchase the clothes. In summation, there are various places where one can buy children clothes. All that is needed is one to know where.

In Nick Boucher's defense, he did try to get the attention of linesmen Dean Pioch and Geoff Rutherford.
They didn't notice.
So Boucher, the Komets' goaltender, decided he was going to use the situation to his advantage during the second period of the Komets' 2-1 victory Monday night. The net had been knocked off its moorings, but the whistle wasn't blown, and the Komets took the puck down ice and into the offensive zone.
Boucher leisurely pushed the net back to its appropriate spot, and it looked good from afar. If the Generals got control of the puck, which they did twice, he would push it out of the crease and await a whistle. When the Komets stole the puck back in the neutral zone, twice, Boucher put the net back in its place. It was a game of cat-and-mouse that went on for about two minutes before the linesmen finally noticed what was afoot.
I think that's the only time I've done it since I've been in The Fort, said Boucher, whose Komets have a 2-0 lead in the best-of-seven Turner Cup finals, which continue tonight at Perani Arena.
The play was down at the other end and we were playing pretty well in their zone, so you don't want to just stop the play. Initially, it was Paul the Zamboni guy who was yelling at me that the net was off, because I didn't even know. But we had a great shift and a half down in their zone. Initially, I was yelling for them to call it, but I was watching what was going on. You never want to do something that takes away a chance at getting a goal.
Dodging defense
The Generals have been trying to get their top stay-at-home defenseman, Craig Cescon, on the ice against the Komets' top center, Colin Chaulk. That wasn't easy to do at Memorial Coliseum, because the Komets, as the home team, got the last line change before every face-off.
We've been keeping Chaulk away from Cescon for most of the series so far, Fort Wayne coach Al Sims said. But (Generals coach Jason Muzzatti) will be able to get that matchup in the next game. So Chaulk will have to play through that.
Chaulk has two goals, eight points and a plus-4 rating in nine playoff games. Cescon has one assist and a plus-4 rating in nine games.
Forward thinking
It was fitting that Komets forward David Hukalo wound up shutting off Flint's last attempt at a centering pass as the final seconds ticked off Monday. The forwards, as much as anyone, turned the game the Komets' way. And they did it by taking away the Generals' momentum in the neutral zone, much as Hukalo took away their last gasp.
We just had tremendous back pressure from our forwards, said Boucher, who had a front-row view of it all from between the pipes. We've been putting the heat on them to make a play.
Sims agreed.
We really try to slow them down through the neutral zone, get our D' back quickly to pucks and get it out before they can get in, he said. We did a really good job of it, especially our forwards. They really kept them in their end for long periods of time, and that's your best defense if you keep the puck out of your end.
Ageless wonder
Guy Dupuis may well be feeling every minute of his 39 years, as the long season winds toward its finish. But he's not playing like it. Dupuis got another assist Monday, his fourth point of the finals after his one-goal, two-assist night in a 3-2 win in Game 1.
You can tell he's feeling it, Sims said. As soon as he gets the puck he's gunning it at the net.
No more than usual, Dupuis insists.
Hey, I always do the same thing, he said. Sometimes you get the bounces, sometimes you don't. It depends on who's in front. I've been fortunate the first couple games that the shots I directed toward the net ended up as goals.

Three Arguments Against the Belgian Child Euthanasia Bill Criticised
By Luke J Davies. Follow Luke on Twitter.
Last week the upper house of the Belgian Federal Parliament voted (50 to 17) that euthanasia should be legal for children suffering from a terminal illness that is causing severe physical pain. [1] The bill legalizing the practice requires that the child understand what euthanasia is, and that parents provide their written consent. Unlike the Netherlands, which allows euthanasia for children over the age of 12, there will be no minimum age in Belgium. (Find the story here, here, here, and here.)
The passing of this bill, which has yet to be turned into a law [2], has been met with severe criticism in Belgium and abroad, mostly from religious and conservative groups. From what I have read, there are three main lines of argument against allowing euthanasia for children. The first maintains that allowing euthanasia for children is the first in a long series of steps that will lead to some Third Reich-like eugenics program. The second maintains that children do not have the capacity to make a decision to be euthanized. The third maintains that the legalization of euthanasia for children would lead to parents or health care professionals putting pressure on children to opt for that choice. I believe that each of these arguments fails to demonstrate that the bill should not pass, and will spend the remainder of this post explaining why.
Podcast: Genetic Parenthood, Assisted Reproduction, and the Values of Parental Love
On the evening of Thursday 28 December, Prof. Justin Oakley, Deputy Director of the Centre for Human Bioethics at Monash University, gave a fascinating and suggestive lecture on whether there is reason for the state to broaden access to IVF treatment for childless people as well as facilitating adoption.

Get your nasty Platonic hands off my kids, Mr. Gove
My book of the year, by a very wide margin, is Jay Griffiths' splendid 'Kith: The Riddle of the Childscape' (Hamish Hamilton, 2013). Amongst her many virtues is a loathing of Plato's Republic. Here she is, in typically swashbuckling style:
'Excessive laughter is banned and so is the liquid superfluity of metaphor. Plato would rid his ideal state of anything that could arouse emotion, mischief, wildness or fun….so ghastly is his Republic that it could be interpreted as satire. But, generally, its ambition has been taken with deadly seriousness as a founding text on the education of boys. The purpose of The Republic is to school its youth to be good soldiers engaged in unending war to take the resources of neighbouring lands. It is a handbook for the education of imperialists.
Brick by brick, Plato builds the walls of his citadel of control, hierarchy and obedience. His ideal republic is obsessed with rule – not only the rule of command, but the rule of measurement… the heart of his vision [is] that Apollo, god of measure, metre, civilisation and, surely, god of metronomes, should keep Dionysus, god of the Romantic movement, god of wildness and nature, firmly under his thumb.' 1
Familiar? It should be – at least to UK readers. It's the policy of Michael Gove and his rightly vilified Department. They want to produce a generation of nerdish measurers – people who wield rulers rather than wands, and who write in Excel rather than blank verse.
A Puzzle about Parenting
Consider the following case. Sikes, walking home late one evening, comes across an envelope containing a thousand pounds outside a neighbour's house. He's pretty sure it belongs to the neighbour, as she'd told him she would be withdrawing the money from the bank to buy a new wheelchair for her disabled mother. It is clear to Sikes that no one is looking, so he scoops up the envelope and enters his own house. To most of us, this seems appalling behaviour. Sykes has selfishly put his own interests before those of his neighbour and her mother. Continue reading
Caesarean Sections, Autonomy and Consent
In the past week in the UK, an Italian woman has claimed that a health trust had carried out a Caesarean section on her against her will. Whilst details of the case are still emerging, it appears that the woman had been detained under the Mental Health Act whilst pregnant after suffering a panic attack (which, it is reported, was possibly a result of a failure to take medication for a pre-existing mental health condition). Having been hospitalized for a number of weeks, the woman was given a Caesarean section whilst under sedation without consent. It appears that a health trust had been granted permission to carry out the procedure from the Court of Protection. Further to this, Essex social services also decreed that the mother was unfit to raise the child, and took the child into its care. Continue reading
Breaking the mould: genetics and education
Tonight I participated in BBC's "The Moral Maze", discussing the recent reactions to a report by Dominic Cummings, an advisor to the education secretary, that mentioned that genetic factors have a big impact on educational outcomes. This ties in with the recent book G is for Genes by Kathryn Asbury (also on the program) and Robert Plomin where they argue that children are not blank slates and that genetic information might enable personalized education. Ah, children, genetics, IQ, schools – the perfect mixture for debate!
Unfortunately for me the panel tore into my transhumanist views rather than ask me about the main topic for the evening, so I ended up debating something different. This is what I would have argued if there had been time:
Abortion 'on grounds of gender': Like it or not, the DPP was right
There has been a recent storm over the DPP's decision not to prosecute two doctors in relation to their referral of two women for abortion. The cases were widely represented as cases of abortion on grounds of gender. They came to light in the course of an undercover investigation by the Daily Telegraph of practice in English abortion clinics ( see also here and here).
The DPP has published detailed reasons for his decision. They are well worth reading.
An abortion is only lawful if two medical practitioners are of the opinion, held in good faith, that one of the lawful grounds for abortion is made out. One of the grounds (overwhelmingly the commonest, and the one said to be relevant in both of the cases considered by the DPP), is that 'the pregnancy has not exceeded its 24th week and that the continuance of the pregnancy would involve risk, greater than if the pregnancy were terminated, of injury to the physical or mental health of the pregnant woman or any existing children of her family.': Abortion Act 1967, s. 1(1)(a).
The Act does not say anywhere that the gender of the fetus is a relevant criterion. But it plainly could be. Take two examples: Continue reading
What's wrong with adopting out an adopted child?
'Re-homing' is a term coined to describe the adopting out of adopted children. Reuters today published a long story on the practice, describing several cases in which children adopted from overseas by American parents were then put up for adoption again within the States, in one case only a few days after the initial adoption.
The adoptions described in the Reuters piece are problematic for obvious reasons. It appears that lax oversight arrangements in the US, particularly for intra-state adoptions, have allowed couples to adopt out their children with little or no vetting of the new parents, in some cases into abusive families, and often without much consideration of the child's interests. But might there also be less obvious considerations in play here? Continue reading
Is unwanted pregnancy a medical disorder?
Follow Rebecca on Twitter
Abortion is often in the news. Yesterday, The Atlantic Wire reported a poll of Americans' moral views, which found just under half of Americans believe abortion is morally wrong. Today, The Sun is running an article on the devastating effects on women of having abortions. And, a couple of weeks ago, the law in Ireland was changed to allow abortion under certain circumstances.
Whether (and under what circumstances) abortion is ethical, and whether (and under what circumstances) it should be permitted by law, are two of the most well known and fiercely debated issues of our age. I do not wish to engage with them here. Instead, I will argue as follows:
- Abortions cause suffering, and neither permitting them nor banning them is likely to reduce this suffering to an acceptable level.
- The best way of reducing the suffering caused by abortion is to reduce unwanted pregnancies.
- Current attempts to reduce unwanted pregnancies in the UK do not work well enough.
- Viewing unwanted pregnancy as more like a medical disorder and less like a social problem is likely to enable more effective measures to address it.
I then propose such a measure, and defend it against some possible objections.
Does Madeleine McCann deserve never to be found?
Follow Rebecca on Twitter
Several news sources reported today that Scotland Yard has launched a formal investigation into the disappearance of Madeleine McCann, following the emergence of 'new evidence and new theories'. Madeleine disappeared from her family's holiday apartment in Portugal in 2007, a few days before her fourth birthday. Her parents had left her and her siblings alone in the apartment one evening while they dined with friends at a restaurant. The years since her disappearance have seen a botched Portuguese police investigation, the arrest and release of Madeleine's parents, various unconfirmed sightings and false leads, a private investigation commissioned by the McCanns, a Scotland Yard case review, and a massive media campaign driven by the McCanns. The case is controversial: among other things, various people have complained that attention to it eclipses other abducted children, and have suggested that media interest in it is partly due to the fact that Madeleine is from a respectable, educated, white, middle-class family.
Perhaps some of this criticism is warranted—I don't wish to engage with it here. Personally, I am happy that Madeleine's disappearance is to be investigated, and I hope that it sends a clear indication that this sort of crime will be taken seriously even when a child disappears outside his or her community, with all the difficulties this raises for any investigation. I wish, instead, to focus on a particular complaint about Madeleine's case that arises again and again each time the case reappears in the news: the view that the case is undeserving of serious attention because the fact that Madeleine's parents left her unsupervised means that they are partly to blame for her disappearance. This complaint appears many times in comments on a recent Daily Mail story about Madeleine. Continue reading

Cognitive ability, as measured by IQ and background factors such as socioeconomic status and demographics have historically been seen as the principal determinants of a students academic success. ... Vea más + However, a growing body of research from psychology, education, behavioral economics and neuroscience is showing that personality traits also predict academic and work performance. This change in paradigm suggests that education systems face a more complex challenge than traditionally recognized: to work not only with the different types of intelligence possessed by students but also with their different personality traits in order to produce academic success measured by cognitive and non-cognitive skills. This paper reviews the research findings from the different literatures (psychology, education, behavioral economics, and neuroscience) that relate to these questions. Several good reviews summarize the findings on aspects of these questions, but rarely address all of the questions above. In particular, those reviews do not shed light on how education can improve both cognitive and non-cognitive skills and how such skills promote creativity and labor market outcomes. The scientific literatures on human intelligence and personality are large, but our focus is on the subset of research findings that relate intelligence and personality to academic performance. Likewise, the literature on creativity, innovation, and productivity is extensive, but our focus will be on the research findings that relate academic performance to creativity and, ultimately, to productivity in the workplace.

As Dubai has grown over the last two decades, the demand for private education has grown with it, a reflection of the number of expatriates settling in the city. ... Vea más + Today, 88 percent of all students attend private schools. The surge in demand over this period had in fact been so significant that authorities, recognizing the need to establish a specific governmental entity to oversee the sectors expansion, moved to create the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) in 2007. Given the city-states unique context (in which a majority of the population are expatriates, not Emiratis), the immediate challenge for this new public institution was to identify an appropriate approach for regulating a private education sector. The main objective of the present review is to understand what has motivated KHDAs policy initiatives, what principles have guided design, how they were operationalized, and how they function in real life situations today. In what follows, we look first at the broader context of the issue by giving a brief overview of: (i) the growth of private sector education; and (ii) the rise of public governance reform initiatives in the global education policy agenda. The authors then turn to the case of Dubai: the authors present the argument in the road not traveled before reviewing how that policy framework was translated into its present institutional configuration in Dubai through the development of the institutions that came into being. The authors then reflect on the policy framework in operation, showing how the constituent components function together. The authors end by suggesting some options on potential ways forward that will further enhance the system. Ver menos -

This study examines the causes and effects of low enrollment and high dropout rates at the upper secondary level in Mexico, where upper secondary completion rates are well below those of other Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development countries and the regional average. ... Vea más + Through a disaggregated analysis of coverage, absorption, and dropout data in secondary education at the state level, the study categorizes states according to the stage in the educational cycle at which dropout primarily occurs. The study further examines the academic, social, and economic consequences of dropout through an analysis of employment and youth survey data. The analysis of factors associated with dropout uses self-reported factors as well as estimated probit models that use household data from national surveys and the national standardized test. The central conclusion reached is that in addition to the patterns of dropout found, multiple elements intersect with the patterns to form a complex panorama. Key findings include: i) personal, family, and household economic factors and the prevalence of social risks have a closer association with dropout earlier in the education cycle; ii) the association between dropout and the quality of education has greater intensity in states where dropout occurs primarily during upper secondary education and in those with the lowest upper secondary dropout rates; and iii) as the returns to education grow, dropout is lower; in the case of returns to higher education, the association with dropout is stronger for states that have the highest dropout during upper secondary education. This complexity merits differentiated responses, which are explored through a brief look at relevant international approaches. Ver menos -

Laboratories have historically been under supported in developing country health systems resulting in poor quality diagnosis and inadequate disease surveillance. ... Vea más + Laboratory professionals are predominantly male with relatively limited female labor participation, with potential gender based barriers to advancement. The focus on communicable diseases has meant that funding for broader public health laboratory services has been relatively neglected. In this paper the authors present a number of strategies to address these problems based on the outcomes from a literature review and case studies conducted in four African countries. Improved registration and human resource planning are required to establish the scale of the problem and to develop country specific strategies to address skills shortages. More high quality pre-service training is needed to supply the service with suitably skilled professional staff to address the current deficit. Innovative in-service training is essential to maintain competence and collaboration is required with the private sector to utilize their expertise. A clear career structure with transparent promotional opportunities is required to recruit and retain staff in the public sector. The establishment of suitable work environments and regulatory and representative bodies will also support recruitment and retention as well as enhance quality. It is also clear that this cadre has been underrepresented in human resources for health research and more activity in this area will lead to greater understanding of the problems and provide more potential solutions.

Ratings for the Second Education Development Policy Loan (DPL) Project for Morocco were as follows: outcomes were moderately satisfactory, risk to development outcome was substantial, Bank performance was moderately satisfactory, and Borrower performance was moderately satisfactory. ... Vea más + Some lessons learned included: the DPL, particularly when it is limited to one year, is not an efficient instrument to promote institutional reforms in the education sector. Reform processes in the education sector should go through long successive phases without interruption (development, consultation, feasibility study, and a pilot before a full scale implementation) to be successful. The decentralization to the regional academy of education and training (academie regionale deducation et de formation) (AREFs) is essential for assessing the needs, locating investments, targeting social programs, motivating teaching staff, assessing quality, and more broadly achieving better sector performance. To measure quality, national learning assessments should be frequent, procedures should be standard, and results should be disseminated widely at the school level and to all stakeholders. The establishment of internal audit units in the AREFs was a useful action. Teachers' pre- service training (university education programs (filieres universitaires de leducation) (FUE) and regional centers for education and training (centres regionaux metier education et formation) (CRMEF)) should be assessed urgently to determine the corrective measures necessary to improve its quality and efficiency.

The AF GPE Education for All Project Phase II of Haiti has an objective that was revised in a June 2014 combined restructuring and additional financing. ... Vea más + The objective of the Project is to support: (i) enrollment of students in select non-public primary schools in disadvantaged areas; (ii) student attendance in select public and non-public primary schools in disadvantaged areas; and (iii) strengthened management of the Recipients primary education sector. The proposed additional grant from the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) would help finance the implementation of the Haitian Ministry of Educations (Ministère de lEducation Nationale et de la Formation Professionnelle MENFP) transitional education sector plan (Programme dInterventions Prioritaires en Education PIPE).The project consists of four components. Component 1, to date, the Project has surpassed expectations with respect to enrollment: it has delivered timely tuition waivers to about 150,000 and 139,000 primary students in seven departments in the 2012-13 and 2013-14 school years, respectively, enabling these students to enroll in school. Component 2, the Accelerated Teacher Training Program (Formation Initiale Accélérée FIA) has certified 2,669 teachers to date. Component 3, project-based budget agreements between the MENFP and decentralized regional units (Direction Départementale de lEducation DDE) are under preparation, and would allow the Project to finance DDEs to supervise and provide support to schools. Component 4, an impact evaluation of a pilot program using ICT to strengthen the monitoring capacity of MENFPs inspectors has been completed. Ver menos -

As Dubai has grown over the last two decades, the demand for private education has grown with it, a reflection of the number of expatriates settling in the city and the various curricula on offer to cater to expatriates. ... Vea más + Given the city-state's unique context (in which a majority of the population are expatriates, not Emiratis), the immediate challenge for this new public institution was to identify an appropriate approach for regulating a private education sector. It was the central tenets of this approach, dependent essentially on oversight rather than intervention, which appealed to the knowledge and human development authority (KHDA) and so the policy framework from that report was adopted, adapted, and put into place in Dubai. The KHDA has returned to the World Bank requesting a review of the governance initiatives. A World Bank team, working in close collaboration with counterparts in the KHDA, and in consultation with the wider stakeholders in question (private school owners, heads, teachers, and parents), completed the review and the findings are presented in this report.

The goal of this study is to provide a better understanding of how a school system can operate efficiently under adversity. The results of this work will be useful in identifying relevant policies in the Middle East and North Africa region. ... Vea más + Palestine refugees are achieving higher-than-average learning outcomes in spite of the adverse circumstances they live under. Their education system the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) operates one of the largest non-governmental school systems in the Middle East. It manages nearly 700 schools, has hired 17,000 staff, educates more than 500,000 refugee students each year, and operates in five areas, including the West Bank, Gaza, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. This study examines three: West Bank, Gaza, and Jordan. Contrary to what might be expected from a resource-constrained administration serving refugee students who continually face a multitude of adversities, UNRWA students outperform public schools in the three regions the West Bank, Gaza, and Jordan by a year's worth of learning. This study was undertaken to better understand the reasons for success at UNRWA schools and their positive variation from comparable public schools. Econometric techniques were used to analyze international (TIMSS and Programme for International Student Assessment, or PISA) and national learning achievement data. Pedagogical practices and classroom time-on-task were observed using structured methods (Stallings model). Systems Approach for Better Education Results (SABER) tools were used to better understand the policies and implementation strategies for school and teacher management and for monitoring and evaluation. Additionally, qualitative data were collected and analyzed in line with an education resilience conceptual framework to better uncover factors that help students develop the skills to learn despite the adversities they face.

The Renovation of General Education Project for Vietnam plans to raise student learning outcomes and improve relevance by revising and implementing the curriculum following a competency-based approach and by improving the effectiveness of teaching by creating and disseminating textbooks aligned with it. ... Vea más + The project will have some potential environmental and social impacts associated with the construction and improvement of small to medium-scale buildings related to component 3 (Learning Assessment and Analysis for Continuous Improvement of Curriculum and Policy). When the buildings are newly constructed, land acquisition is likely to take place. This activity will cause some social impacts on local community such as loss of likelihood and shelter. Other potential social impacts on local communities will be those relating to transportation, road safety or public safety during site clearance, construction, and operation, which will be managed as suggested in this environmental social management framework. Unexploded ordnance is also a risk likely to occur as the locations for buildings constructed by the project have not yet been identified and Vietnam has a history of war in many years as well as is ranked as the tenth country on most number of mines deployed on the territory. The key potential impacts during construction/rehabilitation of the buildings are anticipated including generation of noise, dust, solid waste, wastewater, and traffic and labor safety at moderate level and in short-term period. Generation of domestic wastewater and solid waste are the main, long-term impacts during the buildings operation. The potential environmental and social impacts of the Project are expected to be localized, short-term, and moderate and can be managed through good design. As locations for construction/improvement of buildings are not known by now, the site-specific impacts for subprojects are not yet known until implementation phase. Nevertheless, during implementation, the mitigation measures for generic impacts relevant to, land acquisition are described in the resettlement action plans as well as unexploded ordnance risks, generation of dust, noise, waste water, solid waste, and traffic and labor safety in the environmental codes of practice prepared during preparation phase of subprojects.

Evaluación ambiental E4677 OCT 01, 2014
Bulgaria's performance on all three disciplines of the program for international student assessment (PISA) 2012 was slightly better than its PISA 2000 performance, after having dropped between 2000 and 2006. ... Vea más + The improvements in performance between 2006 and 2012 promoted shared prosperity, but equality of opportunities is still a major challenge. In fact, disaggregating students' PISA scores across a number of variables for example, location and ethnicity - shows that large inequalities exist in Bulgaria's education system. Peer characteristics and school segregation are the key drivers of the Bulgarian education system's performance. An in-depth analysis into math and reading skills shows imbalances in performance in Bulgaria. The main areas in which Bulgaria can further improve its educational system involve: delaying the tracking of students to reduce segregation in schools; continue improving the quality of educational resources to ensure that all students learn in an environment with books, lab equipment, and technological hardware and software; encouraging longer pre-primary education for all children; learning from successful schools to improve accountability mechanisms for schools countrywide, particularly in rural areas; reevaluating the curriculum and assessment framework to better align student learning to the envisaged country goals; and promoting effective classroom management and strengthening teaching practices.

Used as a a one-night stopover en-route back to New York City. Arrived after sunset so missed the views over the Hudson. Allocated room 3 above reception which had a great view out over the river which we enjoyed as we ate breakfast on our terrace the next morning.

Associated Press
Though the Mayans never really predicted that the world would end on Friday, some New Agers are convinced that humanity's demise is indeed imminent. Or at least that it's a good excuse for a party.
Believers are being drawn to spots where they think their chances of survival will be better, and accompanying them are the curious, the party-lovers and people wanting to make some money.
Here are some of the world's key doomsday destinations and other places marked by fear and fascination.
About 1,000 self-described shamans, seers, stargazers, crystal enthusiasts, yogis, sufis and swamis are gathering in a convention center in the city of Merida on the Yucatan peninsula about an hour and a half from the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza, convinced that it was a good start to the coming "New Era" supposed to begin around 5:00 a.m. local time Friday. These are not people who believe the world will end on Friday: the summit is scheduled to run through Dec. 23. Instead, participants say, they want to celebrate the birth of a new age.
Meanwhile, Mexico's self-styled "brujo mayor," or chief soothsayer, Antonio Vazquez Alba, who warned followers to stay away from all gatherings on Dec. 21. "We have to beware of mass psychosis" that could lead to stampedes or "mass suicides, of the kind we've seen before," he said.
Also, organizers of Yucatan's broader Mayan Culture Festival saw the need to answer some of the now-debunked idea that the Mayas, who invented an amazingly accurate calendar almost 2,000 years ago, had somehow predicted the end of the world. The Yucatan state government asked a scientist to talk about the work of Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland to debunk the idea it could produce world-ending rogue particles.
According to one rumor, a rocky mountain in the French Pyrenees will be the sole place on earth to escape destruction. A giant UFO and aliens are said to be waiting under the mountain, ready to burst through and spirit those nearby to safety. But here is bad news for those seeking salvation: French gendarmes, some on horseback, are blocking outsiders from reaching the Bugarach peak and its village of some 200 people.
One believer, Ludovic Broquet, a 30-year-old plumber, made his way to the mountain after a year of preparation, hoping to find a "gateway, the vortex that will open up here (at) the end of the world."
Local residents, instead, are skeptical — and angry at having their peace disturbed. "What is going on here is the creation of an urban legend," fumed resident Michele Pous, who blamed those who spread Internet rumors. "They created a media frenzy, they created a false event, they manipulated people."
For $1,500, a museum is offering salvation from the world's end in former Soviet dictator Josef Stalin's underground bunker in central Moscow — with a 50 percent refund if nothing happens.
The bunker, located 65 meters (210 feet) below ground, was designed to withstand a nuclear attack. Now home to a small museum, it has an independent electricity supply, water and food — but no more room, because the museum has already sold out all 1,000 tickets.
Hundreds of people have already converged on Stonehenge for an "End of the World" party that coincides with the Winter Solstice.
Arthur Uther Pendragon, Britain's best-known druid, said he was anticipating a much larger crowd than usual at Stonehenge this year. But he doesn't agree that the world is ending, noting that he and fellow druids believe that things happen in cycles.
"We're looking at it more as a new beginning than an end," he said. "We're looking at new hope."

EL PASO, Texas (AP) - John White took his final hand-off of the day, followed his lead blocker and set of a celebration.
MANHATTAN (AP) - Frank Martin didn't want to see Kansas State play down to the level of the opposition.
HOUSTON (AP) - Ryan Tannehill threw for 329 yards and a touchdown and Ben Malena ran for two more scores to lead Texas A&M to a 33-22 win over Northwestern on Saturday in the Meineke Car Care Bowl.
MADISON, Wis. (AP) - Freshman reserve Aaron White scored 16 of his 18 points in the second half and Iowa stunned No. 11 Wisconsin 72-65 on Saturday, snapping the Badgers' six-game winning streak.
LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) - Freshman Michael Kidd-Gilchrist had season-highs with 24 points and 19 rebounds to lead No. 3 Kentucky in a rough-and-tumble 69-62 victory over No. 4 Louisville on Saturday to extend the nation's longest home winning streak.
STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) - Dorenzo Hudson scored 18 points, including four clinching free throws in the final minute, to lead Virginia Tech to a 67-61 win against increasingly shorthanded Oklahoma State on Saturday.
Thank you, Drew Brees and the Saints.
DENVER (AP) - Kyle Orton won't come out and say it, calling his much-anticipated return to Denver on Sunday just another chance to take the field and play a football game.
Reduced to its simplest, the NFL playoff races come down to this: Cincinnati, Denver, Dallas and the New York Giants must win. Then it gets complicated, because the Giants host the Cowboys in prime time, and the loser is out.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - Chiefs kicker Ryan Succop can retire that "Mr. Irrelevant" nickname.
TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) -- Oklahoma was gaining yards in bits instead of its usual chunks. Its defense was solid before giving up a pair of touchdowns in the fourth quarter to lose nearly all of a 21-point lead.
DURHAM, N.C. (AP) - Mike Krzyzewski told his No. 7 Duke team to pick up the pace. That wound up making everyone in the Blue Devils' backcourt look pretty good.
NEW YORK - Chas Dodd hit Brandon Coleman for an 86-yard touchdown pass late in the fourth quarter and Jawan Jamison ran for two scores to lead Rutgers over Iowa State 27-13 in the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankees Stadium on Friday.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Vick Ballard ran for a career-high 180 yards and two touchdowns to lead Mississippi State over Wake Forest 23-17 in the Music City Bowl - the Bulldogs' fifth straight bowl victory and second consecutive under coach Dan Mullen.
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - Trevone Boykin did an acrobatic flip on the second of his three touchdown runs and threw for 219 yards and another score for No. 6 TCU in a 41-20 victory over No. 9 Kansas State on Saturday night that had huge Big 12 and playoff implications.
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) - Only three players drafted in 1998 are still in the NFL, and two of them - Peyton Manning and Charles Woodson - meet this weekend when the Denver Broncos visit the winless Oakland Raiders.
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) - TCU quarterback Trevone Boykin finished the last game by encouraging the kicker before the game-winning field goal and apologizing to teammates in the locker room for his subpar performance.
KANSAS CITY (AP) - Alex Smith took the snap from center, looked to his right and saw Dwayne Bowe open in the end zone.
LAWRENCE (AP) - Anybody watching Kansas last week could tell that something different was going on, though it had nothing to do with the personnel or anything else happening on the field.

Tale Of The Tape: New England Patriots At Houston Texans
The Patriots staged a memorable comeback in beating the Broncos 34-31 in overtime in Week 12. Tom Brady kept his cool despite three New England fumbles on the first three possessions.
Tale Of The Tape: Denver Broncos At New England Patriots
The Broncos are coming off an important home win over the Chiefs, but they have little time to enjoy it because they have to travel across the country to play a sharp Patriots team.
Tale Of The Tape: New England Patriots At Carolina Panthers
Tom Brady has endured a difficult season and touchdowns were hard to come by until the Patriots put 55 points on the board against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week Nine.
Tale Of The Tape: Pittsburgh Steelers At New England Patriots
The Steelers were ill-prepared to take on the Oakland Raiders in Week Eight and no matter what was said after the game, they were looking ahead to this game against the Patriots and it cost them in a big way.
Tale Of The Tape: New England Patriots At New York Jets
The Patriots don't have the kind of explosive offensive team that fans are used to seeing, but they are 5-1 and in first place in the AFC East.
Tale Of The Tape: New Orleans Saints At New England Patriots
While Drew Brees has not been winging the ball around the field like Peyton Manning, he has been dynamic in his own right and he may be the best quarterback in the NFC.

My grandmother was Ada La Mesurier. She was born on the island of Gurnsey off the coast of France and brought to Newfoundland to St. Johns when she was just a child. She married James Rideout of Harbor le Cou, Newfoundland July 5, 1889. They moved to the Codroy Valley with brother Job Rideout, lost everything they had, moved back to Rose Blanche and then to British Columbia. Someone told me in Newfoundland last summer, "That's just a Newfie looking for work!", and that is exactly what that move was all about. Is my Ada and yours one and the same?

Self Evident Truths Tour Headed to California
November 3, 2011 by Maureen McCarty, HRC Associate Director of Digital Media
Photographer iO Tillett Wright's Self Evident Truths project is on the road, shooting this November in San Francisco and Los Angeles, and they want you to participate.
The Self Evident Truths tour began as a photographic documentation of New York City's LGBTQ community in an effort to raise awareness about equality. After shooting 350 portraits on 35 mm film, Wright sought to take the project on the road.
To help raise funds for the tour, HRC released a Self Evident Truths T-shirt series early this year featuring five prominent members of the LGBT community – musicians Tegan Quin from Tegan and Sara, JD Samson from MEN and Bianca Casady from CocoRosie; artist Terence Koh; and designer Robert Tagliapietra from Costello Tagliapietra – who have courageously lent their faces and voices to the project.
The tour will begin November 4th to 7th in San Francisco before traveling on November 11th to Los Angeles. Visit the Self Evident Truths website for more details and a complete list of tour dates.
You can also visit HRC's store to purchase a Self Evident Truths' exclusive t-shirt to support the project.

Oh, Canada, what have you brought us this time around? Toronto native (and hip-hop up-and-comer) Saukrates makes his premiere in the Booth today, and as the modern-day father of philosophy, he's here to invent a way to make it Hot Like Summer year round. On his first solo track feature, Saukrates puts his talents to use over a hauntingly catchy production thrown together by Tone Mason. His deep vocals and steady rhyme pattern reflect his experience in the game, and the feature from Andreena Mill takes the track's energy to another level with her beautiful contribution on the hook. As a part of Big Black Lincoln (and Redman's Gilla House Group), the man clearly knows how to grab the listener's attention and shake it to the core, with intro bars like "I was drunk when I wrote this/So you know that I'm giving you truth." Damn. If you like what this track has to offer, stay tuned to the Booth for Sauk's album, Season One, dropping soon.
