How to Make Arguments, Not Just Argue (SR2) (November '14)
In this course, we will explore and use basic lessons from the ancient liberal arts of logic and rhetoric to see how arguments fail, may be improved upon, or even succeed to be both valid and sound. Moreover, we will look at the use of language, how it sways audiences, how it presents various traps and dangers, and how we can use it more effectively (and fairly) when arguing a point of view. Expect to be introduced to some basic laws of logic as well as to examine the use of rhetoric in both writing and speech. Lectures will include videos and forum discussions, and one or two live interactive online sessions.

Science and its Institutions (SR1) (May '14)
How did science develop? It is one of the most successful means of understanding nature, and yet it developed not according to some general plan or coordinated effort. Instead it evolved at the dawn of the modern age from a number of contemporaneous movements and practices. We will examine this evolution, look into the nature of its successes, and examine the necessary and sufficient conditions, values, and institutions that endure to provide us with knowledge about the universe in a way no other mode of investigation can. Class will consist of readings, forum discussions online, and at least one live discussion online through Google Hangouts. Everyone should create a Google account in anticipation of the course so we can conduct our online discussions.

Modern Humanism (NH2) (May '14)
Modern humanism is the result of a number of significant social and philosophical changes from the direction of humanistic philosophy after the Rennaisance. Its emergence in the Nineteenth Century coincides with the rise of the success of science and technology in the West as manners of knowing and changing the world, as well as new ways of thinking about the ways philosophy can impact the world. We will examine these dynamics, and look at seminal thinkers responsible for the creation of humanism as a "movement," which is the way it is now generally perceived by humanists and non-humanisrts alike. Discussion forums, assigned readings, and live online chats will be the means by which we explore the emergence of modern humanism.
Instructors: David Koepsell, JD, PhD
Class Dates: May 1, 2014 to May 31, 2014.

The Origins of Humanism (NH1) (March '14)
Humanism traces its roots, and that of related philosophical schools of thought, not only to ancient Greek philosophy, but also to philosophers in the East. Modern humanists can learn much about their worldviews through exploring these roots primarily in Greek thought but also some Eastern philosophy, and we will read not only some primary texts, but also discuss a bit the history of humanism through the Renaissance. Class will consist of readings, forum discussions online, and at least one live discussion online through Google Hangouts. Everyone should create a Google account in anticipation of the course so we can conduct our online discussions.

No Gods, No Masters: Anarchism and Atheism (SEC 210-1013) (October '13)
There is a historical correlation between anarchist philosophers and activists in the 19th century and bold expressions of anti-religious/atheist sentiment. In this seminar, we will look at this correlation, consider whether there is a necessary relation between rejecting divine authority and state authority, and examine what people like Godwin, Bakunin, Proudhon, and Emma Goldman had to say about their antipathy to all forms of authority, both secular and ecclesiastical. The readings will be supplied online, most are in the public domain and were written between the 18th and 19th centuries. In the course we will also take note of, and examine briefly "religious" anarchism and some of its proponents by way of comparison. Instruction will combine reading and group discussion, and we will consider the broader question of the relation of atheism to various political stances and ideologies.
Instructors: David Koepsell, JD, PhD
Class Dates: October 1, 2013 to October 31, 2013.

Pascal's Wager and Christian Agnosticism (SEC 204-0913) (September '13)
This one month short course offers an exploration of 'Pascal's Wager'. The mathematician and scientist Blaise Pascal (1623–1662) inspired Christian philosophy with his famous 'wager' that the religious life is the better 'bet' than the nonreligious life: "Let us weigh the gain and the loss in wagering that God is. Let us estimate these two chances. If you gain, you gain all; if you lose, you lose nothing. Wager, then, without hesitation that He is." Christians ever since have resorted to Pascal's existential combination of skeptical agnosticism about metaphysics with trusting faith in God. How can doubt and faith blend together? Mathematicians place Pascal among the highest rank for figuring out statistical formulas behind all games of chance, so he's no fool. Could he be right that unbelievers are fools for ignoring an easy opportunity to gain eternal bliss in heaven by joining the faithful in church? Ask Pascal yourself! Your instructor (John Shook) will also play the role of Pascal so you can debate the great thinker and take your chances against his mind. This online "Pascal" will quote from his famous Pensées when he needs to, so we will carefully study relevant sections of that work.
Instructors: John Shook, PhD
Class Dates: September 1, 2013 to September 30, 2013.

The Science of Free Will (SCI 224-0513) (May '13)
This four-module short course discusses the intersection between science and philosophy in defining and understanding free will, with the aim of learning the latest science on the nature and existence of free will and how to critically approach philosophical uses of it. Students will not only learn about the relevant elements of brain science, but also how to identify common philosophical fallacies in reasoning about free will.
Instructors: Richard Carrier, PhD; John Shook, PhD
Class Dates: May 1, 2013 to May 31, 2013.
Cost: $70 for general registration, $60 for CFI Friends of The Center, $30 for students (Valid educational institution email address required)
Science and Ethics: Crossroads and Conundrums (SEC 238-0413) (April '13)
In this course we will look at two facets of the fields broadly defined as "science" and "ethics." First, what relation does science have to ethics, if any? Is there a way to reconcile them, as some philosophers have tried, by attempting a scientific approach to ethical theory, or are they, like religion and science, "non-overlapping magesteria?" Second, we will also look at how ethics and science have intersected and interacted in modern "applied" ethics, specifically bioethics, but also in other fields broadly described by the term "research ethics." In preparation for the course, optionally, students are recommended to purchase and read Science and Ethics by Paul Kurtz and David Koepsell (Prometheus, 2007).
Instructors: David Koepsell, JD, PhD.
Class Dates: April 1, 2013 to April 30, 2013.

Secularism and Justice: Just Societies Past and Future (SEC 250-0213) (February '13)
In this course we will examine some theories of justice dating from Plato, through the middle ages, into the Enlightenment and beyond. Specifically, we will explore the notion that the state and its laws must be measured against some notion of "Justice," whatever that is. Plato began the discussion, and it has been debated ever since. Recently, the notion of Justice has seen a reemergence due to John Rawls' groundbreaking attempt to describe justice for the modern era in his book A Theory of Justice.. After some brief readings from Plato's Republic, we will trace briefly the evolution of Plato's notion of Justice, its adoption by Christianity up through the middle ages, and modern theorists' attempts to break away from divine notions of justice and establish boundaries for state action that are entirely secular. We will spend the second half of the course reading and discussing selections from Rawls and his major critic Robert Nozick. The course will give you a basic introduction to major theories of justice, and especially Rawls.
Instructors: David Koepsell, JD, PhD.
Class Dates: February 1, 2013 to February 23, 2012.

Critical Inquiry: The Appeal to Reason (SCI 201-1112) (November '12)
This four-module short course on Critical Inquiry will explore all of the various tools necessary not just to persuade, but to make logically valid and sound arguments. We will explore formal validity, which helps make arguments incontrovertible, and the tools of inductive reasoning that help to demonstrate the truth of premises. We will also delve a bit into the proper use of rhetoric, combined with logic, to make persuasive arguments. Finally, we will examine some common formal and informal fallacies which you should avoid making and should point out when others make.
Instructors: David Koepsell, JD, PhD.
Class Dates: November 1, 2012 to November 30, 2012.

Humanism, Atheism and Social Justice (SEC 235-1212) (December '12)
This one-month, four-module course will discuss how humanists, atheists and freethinkers have historically been at the forefront of social justice movements. What is it about freethought, humanism and atheism that leads people to take progressive stances on social justice issues? With gains in social justice being threatened and with the recent conflicts within our movement about whether to engage in social justice work and if so, how much, and more importantly, how we can be inclusive as a movement, it is important that we take the time to consider where we have been so that we can better understand what we might be able to accomplish if we embrace our social justice heritage.
Instructors: Jennifer Hancock, humanist activist, author, speaker, and journalist; John Shook, PhD, CFI Director of Education and Senior Research Fellow, AHA Education Coordinator
Class Dates: December 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012.

It's been well over a year since the first revelations from former National Security Agency contractor Edward Snowden became public. Though President Obama has called for reforms in his government's mass surveillance polices, the one significant attempt to reform U.S. laws and end "bulk collection" of data-- the USA Freedom Act -- failed in November. And many privacy advocates warned that even that bill was far too limited to do much good or excite the public. With the PATRIOT Act, the law passed in the immediately aftermath of 9/11, up for renewal in 2015, there may be a larger debate about the tactics embraced by the NSA over the last decade and a half coming. But for now, all that has changed is that we are slightly more informed about how governments may be spying on us. Will we just give in to an "aquarium" life and a perverse definition of "privacy"? Watch our Mikko Hypponen's latest talk "The Internet is On Fire" and see if you're ready to grab the microphone. [protected-iframe id="5ce619b9eead69a01a130cf64c867a33-10874323-9129869" info="//www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/QKe-aO44R7k?rel=0" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0"] How have the Snowden revelations changed your views about privacy?

"Sorry for the inconvenience, I'm in Limassol, Cyprus. I am here for a week and I just lost my bag containing all my important items, phone and money at the bus station. I need some help from you. Thanks" Many of you have seen these messages and some of you already know what the name of the game is. Yes, it's another type of Internet scam, an imposter scam variant. I got this message last week from a photo club acquaintance. Or to be precise, the message was in bad Swedish from Google translate. Here's what happened. First I got the mail. Needless to say, I never suspected that he was in trouble in Limassol. Instead I called him to check if he was aware of the scam. He was, I wasn't the first to react. Several others had contacted him before me and some were posting warnings to his friends on Facebook. These scams start by someone breaking in to the victim's web mail, which was Gmail in this case. This can happen because of a bad password, a phishing attack, malware in the computer or a breach in some other system. Then the scammer checks the settings and correspondence to find out what language the victim is using. The next step is to send a message like the above to all the victim's contacts. The victim had reacted correctly and changed the Gmail password ASAP. But I wanted to verify and replied to the scam mail anyway, asking what I can do to help. One hour later I got this: "Thanks, I need to borrow about 1000 euros, will pay you back as soon as I get home. Western Union Money Transfer is the fastest option to wire funds to me. All you need to do is find the nearest Western Union shop and the money will be sent in minutes. See details needed WU transfer below. Name: (Redacted) Address: Limassol, Cyprus you must email me the reference number provided on the payment slip as soon as you make the transfer so I can receive money here. Thank you," Now it should be obvious for everyone how this kind of scam works. Once the scammers get the reference number they just go to Western Union to cash in. Most recipients will not fall for this, but the scammers will get a nice profit if even one or two contacts send money. But wait. To pull this off, the scammers need to retain control over the mail account. They need to send the second mail and receive the reference number. How can this work if the victim had changed his password? This works by utilizing human's inability to notice tiny details. The scammers will register a new mail account with an address that is almost identical to the victim's. The first mail comes from the victim's account, but directs replies to the new account. So the conversation can continue with the new account that people believe belongs to the victim. The new address may have a misspelled name or use a different separator between the first and last names. Or be in a different domain that is almost the same as the real one. The two addresses are totally different for computers, but a human need to pay close attention to notice the difference. How many of you would notice if a mail address changes from say firstname.lastname@example.com to email@example.com? (How many differences do you notice, right answer at the end?) To be honest, I was sloppy too in this case and didn't at first see the tiny difference. In theory it is also possible that webmail servers may leave active sessions open and let the scammers keep using the hacked account for a while after the password has been changed. I just tested this on Gmail. They close old sessions automatically pretty quickly, but it is anyway a good idea to use the security settings and manually terminate any connection the scammers may have open. I exchanged a couple of mails with this person the day after. He told that the scammers had changed the webmail user interface to Arabic, which probably is a hint about where they are from. I was just about to press send when I remembered to check the mail address. Bummer, the scammer's address was still there so my reply would not have reached him unless I had typed the address manually. The account's reply-to was still set to the scammer's fake account. OK, let's collect a checklist that helps identifying these scams. If someone asks for urgent help by mail, assume it's a scam. These scams are a far more common than real requests for help. We are of course all ready to help friends, but are YOU really the one that the victim would contact in this situation? Are you close enough? How likely is it that you are close enough, but still had no clue he was travelling in Cyprus? Creating urgency is a very basic tool for scammers. Something must be done NOW so that people haven't got time to think or talk to others. The scammers may or may not be able to write correct English, but other languages are most likely hilarious Google-translations. Bad grammar is a strong warning sign. Requesting money using Western Union is another red flag. Wire transfer of money provides pretty much zero security for the sender, and scammers like that. Many scammers in this category try to fake an embarrassing situation and ask the recipient to not tell anyone else, to reduce the risk that someone else sees through it. These messages often state that the phone is lost to prevent the recipient from calling to check. But that is exactly what you should do anyway. Next checklist, how to deal with a situation where your account has been hijacked and used for scams. Act promptly. Change the mail account's passwords. Check the webmail settings and especially the reply-to address. Correct any changed settings. Check for a function in the web mail that terminates open sessions from other devices. Gmail has a "Secure your account" -wizard under the account's security settings. It's a good idea to go through it. Inform your friends. A fast Facebook update may reach them before they see the scammer's mail and prevent someone from falling for it. It also helps raising awareness. And finally, how to not be a victim in the first place. This is really about account security basics. Make sure you use a decent password. It's easier to maintain good password habits with a password manager. Activate two-factor authentication on your important accounts. I think anyone's main mail account is important enough for it. Learn to recognize phishing scams as they are a very common way to break into accounts. Maintain proper malware protection on all your devices. Spyware is a common way to steal account passwords. The last checklist is primarily about protecting your account. But that's not the full picture. Imagine one of your friends falls for the scam and loses 1000 € when your account is hacked. It is kind of nice that someone cares that much about you, but losing money for it is not nice. Yes, the criminal scammer is naturally the primarily responsible. And yes, people who fall for the scam can to some extent blame themselves. But the one with the hacked account carries a piece of responsibility too. He or she could have avoided the whole incident with the tools described above. Caring about your account security is caring about your friends too! And last but not least. Knowledge is as usual the strongest weapon against scams. They work only as long as there are people who don't recognize the scam pattern. Help fighting scam by spreading the word! Safe surfing, Micke PS. The two mail addresses above have 3 significant differences. 1. The name separator has changed from a dot to an underscore. 2. The domain name is mail.com instead of gmail.com. 3. The two lower case Ls in Bill has been replaced with capital I. Each of these changes is enough to make it a totally separate mail address.

Fresh off his latest talk at at TEDxBrussels, our Chief Research Officer Mikko Hypponen sat down for a little session of "ask me anything" on reddit. You can read all of the questions people had for him and answers here. WARNING: There is a lot to go through. With over 3,200 comment's, Mikko's AMA ranks among one of the more popular threads in the subreddit's history. For a quick taste of what Mikko had to say about artificial intelligence, Tor, and Edward Snowden, here are slightly edited versions of 5 of our favorite questions and answers. How safe are current smart phones and how secure are their connections? - Jadeyard The operating systems on our current phones (and tablets) are clearly more secure than the operating systems on our computers. That's mostly because they are much more restricted. Windows Phones and iOS devices don't have a real malware problem (they still have to worry about things like phishing though). Android is the only smartphone platform that has real-world malware for it (but most of that is found in China and is coming from 3rd party app stores). It is interesting the Android is the first Linux distribution to have a real-world malware problem. Lots of people are afraid of the viruses and malware only simply because they are all over the news and relatively easy to explain to. I am personally more afraid of the silently allowed data mining (i.e. the amount of info Google can get their hands on) and social engineering style of "hacking". How would you compare these two different threats and their threat levels on Average Joes point of view - which of them is more likely to cause some harm. Or is there something else to be more afraid of even more (govermental level hacks/attacks)? - BadTaster There are different problems: problems with security and problems with privacy. Companies like Google and Facebook make money by trying to gather as much information about you as they can. But Google and Facebook are not criminals and they are not breaking the law. Security problems come from criminals who do break the law and who directly try to steal from you with attacks like banking trojans or credit card keyloggers. Normal, everyday people do regularily run into both problems. I guess getting hit by a criminal attack is worse, but getting your privacy eroded is not a laughing matter either. Blanket surveillance of the internet also affects us all. But comparing these threats to each other is hard. Hi, Mikko! Do you subscribe to Elon Musk's statements and conceptions of AI being the single biggest threat to humans? - matti80 Elon is the man. I've always thought of Tony Stark as my role model and Elon is the closest thing we have in the real world. And he's right. Artificial Intelligence is scary. I believe introducing an entity with superior intelligence into your own biosphere is a basic evolutionary mistake. Europol's cybercrime taskforce recently took down over a hundred darknet servers. Did the news shake your faith in TOR? - brain4narchy People use Tor for surfing the normal web anonymized, and they use Tor Hidden Service for running websites that are only accessible for Tor users. Both Tor use cases can be targeted by various kinds of attacks. Just like anywhere else, there is no absolute security in Tor either. I guess the takedown showed more about capabilities of current law enforcement than anything else. I use Tor regularly to gain access to sites in the Tor Hidden Service, but for protecting my own privacy, I don't rely on Tor. I use VPNs instead. In addition to providing you an exit node from another location, VPNs also encrypt your traffic. However, Tor is free and it's open source. Most VPNs are closed source, and you have to pay for them. And you have to rely on the VPN provider, so choose carefully. We have a VPN product of our own, which is what I use. If you ever met Snowden what would be the first question you would ask him? - SaPro19 'What would you like to drink? It's on me.' Cheers, Sandra

Introduce children to the UK coin designs with this fun collector pack! This special folder contains a £1 coin and all you must do is find the remaining six coins –from the 50p to the 1p – in your change and when completed, like a jigsaw, they will reveal the shield of the Royal Arms just as it appears on the £1 coin.
As a powerful symbol of royal authority the Royal Arms have featured on the coinage of every monarch since the reign of Edward III (1327-77). Coins were, and still are, issued under the personal authority of the monarch and have come to be regarded as vehicles for royal imagery, whether in the form of a portrait or a monarch's personal coat of arms.
The decimal £1 coin of 1983 appropriately bore the Royal Arms on its reverse and the detailed depiction by Eric Sewell is now a famous symbol of British currency. In 1988 the reverse of the £1 coin featured a design by Derek Gorringe bearing a crowned shield of the Royal Arms, reminiscent of the early sovereigns of Queen Victoria. It is not surprising then that Matthew Dent chose the Royal Arms, and in particular a shield of the Royal Arms, as the theme for his innovative range of new designs. The central section of the Royal Arms is divided into 4 parts: England being represented by the 3 lions passant guardant in the first and fourth quarters, Scotland by the lion rampant in the second and Northern Ireland by the harp of Ireland in the third.

2009: The Year Of Philanthropic Journalism
Will 2009 be remembered as the year that new media companies, under less duress than traditional print organizations, stopped Scrooging around and started giving back — or at least encouraged their readers to?
Two months ago, The Huffington Post launched its first charity-oriented vertical site, HuffPost Impact, which celebrated Christmas with its socially-conscious 12 days of Giving. And Tina Brown's Daily Beast heralded its own vertical, Giving Beast, just one week later.

Two And A Half Men: Season 6 clip - starring Charlie Sheen, Jon Cryer, Angus T. Jones, Conchata Ferrell, Holland Taylor, Marin Hinkle. Directed by Lee Aronsohn.
Emmy Award nominated TWO AND A HALF MEN has been the Number One-rated sitcom on television for the past four seasons. It's a comedy about men, women, sex, dating, divorce, mothers, single parenthood, sibling relations, surrogate families, money and, most importantly, love. More specifically, it's about the lives of two brothers, one brother's son, and the many women who surround them. Charlie Harper is a well-to-do bachelor with a house at the beach, a Mercedes in the garage and an easy way with women. His casual Malibu lifestyle was interrupted when his tightly wound brother, Alan, and Alan's son, Jake, came to stay with him. Complicating matters further are Charlie and Alan's narcissistic, emotionally toxic mother, Evelyn; Alan's deeply neurotic ex-wife, Judith and Charlie's domineering, unapologetically blue-collar housekeeper, Berta. Despite the complexities of their lives and their own strained relationship, Charlie and Alan have one thing in common - they both love Jake and want what's best for him. As a result, they manage to create a little family unit that promises to make each of them a better man.
Charlie (Charlie Sheen) tops the charts as kiddie-song sensation Charlie Waffles. Alan (Jon Cryer) at last meets the perfect woman who just happens to be dating Charlie. Jake (Angus T. Jones) starts junior high, armed with reams of helpful advice from Alan and Charlie. Evelyn (Holland Taylor) ties the knot for the fifth time (lots of guests at the wedding, lots of cops at the reception). And as always, Berta (Conchata Ferrell) deals with it all by dealing out a royal flush of deadpan zingers. The guys are in and the welcome mat is out at everyones favorite Malibu beach house. Have a great time!

Let's play "Would you have sent your kid to daycare?"!
DS woke up in a good mood yesterday and ate breakfast fine. He was in the church nursery and they said he was very good. On the way home from church, he was fussy and crying, then he vomited in the car. After vomiting, he got REALLY tired and wanted to go to sleep at 11:30 (usual naptime is 12:30). We took his fever when we got home (no fever) and then sent him straight to bed without lunch.
We woke him up at 3:15. He would have kept sleeping for quite a while, as far as I could tell. When we woke him, his fever was 100.2. He wanted to eat and drink, so we gave him some pedialyte and crackers. We also gave him ibuprofen for his fever. After that, he acted 100% normal. He ate dinner and went to bed around 7:15, which is his normal bedtime. His temperature was slightly elevated (99.2). He slept through the night, and when he woke up this morning (earlier than normal, probably because of his long nap yesterday) his temperature was 98.8. He ate breakfast and was acting fine. No vomiting aside from the one time in the car on Sunday morning.
My husband took him to daycare. I would have kept him home. Technically, he was okay to go considering his temperature never reached the ?fever? threshold (100.4 according to our pedi) and he only vomited once. He has vomited in the car before without being sick, but only maybe 4x in his life. It?s not a common occurrence.
I?ve got my phone on me today in case daycare calls.
What would you have done?
SandAndsSea:Yes, I would have since he was acting totally normal and eating normally and was fever free. Sounds like he just had an upset stomach and was able to get rid of whatever was bothering him and sleep it off.
Yep, this. I have kept her home for just a runny nose/bad cough overall looking and acting miserable with no fever. So i just go with my gut. There have been 2 instances where she's puked in the evening, no fever though, and sent her the next day because she was acting normal.
I did not read the OP but I can tell you that unless he falls under their guidelines for needing to be kept home (unexplained rash, fever over 100.4, vomiting- which I'm somewhat liberal on since sometimes he just pukes for no reason) then he's going to daycare.
I don't have the luxury of taking a day off whenever he's not exactly right. There are times that he gets legit things like RSV or HFM and we are looking at 4+ days out of daycare.
So if he can go, he's going.
So in your case, yes, I would have sent him.
Hell, I sent him last week after a morning pedi appointment where he was diagnosed with an ear infection. I stopped at the pharmacy on the way to his daycare, gave him his first dose of antibiotics, and off we went.
AsOctoberFalls:I'm kind of upset that DH took him in. It's not the call I would have made. However, DS didn't technically meet the "sick" criteria. Daycare's fever threshold is 100.3, and they can vomit 3x before they are sent home. I even called the pediatrician, and they don't consider 100.2 a fever.
100.4 isn't considered a fever by most pediatricians. Per our pedi, some kids can run a temp of 100.4 and be absolutely fine. Teething in some kids makes them run a low temp.
NicoleWI:I would not have sent him b/c even if he's over the worst of the bug, he's probably still very contagious and that stuff spreads like wildfire.
I don't know your work/childcare situation, but this is kind of nuts.
Many many illnesses are the most contagious for the days leading up to the onset of symptoms. Once the kid is actually presenting symptoms, the germs have been widespread and the "contagious" damage is done. There is no way that most people can afford to be taking days and days off work to keep a kid quarantined during the "contagious period".
AsOctoberFalls:Time off is definitely a huge problem. I only have a week left for the rest of the year. We had strep go through the house, and I was out of work for over a week.
This is a major issue with us too. DS' daycare has a ton of holidays and in-service days. It's the best facility in town so I can't ever imagine sending him somewhere else, but he has more days off daycare than I have PTO. So DH and I already have to scramble to make it work as is.
There was a lady once on another board that posted that she kept her DD home from daycare if her poop smelled particularly bad because she knew it was a stomach virus. Seriously... if I kept DS home from daycare because his sh!t stunk, I'd just have to quit.
In that situation, most likely sent him.
We had something similar happen recently, LO puked 1x and he was running a low-grade fever (100.5) but it was at 1:30a. Lovely child woke me up to puke on me. Since it was so middle of the night we kept him home the next day, because we weren't sure if he was ok or not by 7a. If it had been at least 12hrs of no puke and no fever then yea, to daycare he goes.
lasposa425:Our daycare requires them to be fever free without meds for 24 hours so I probably would've kept him home. Hope he feels better soon!
Hopefully it's a good day for him!
Bella427:Honestly, it would depend on the day. If I had something super important and work and DH couldn't take off, I would have sent him. If missing work wasn't a big deal and I had sick time available, I would have kept him home.
This for me.
TTC #1 in Jan 2011, Annovulation suspected due to high glucose levels, started Metformin Sept 2011
BFP #1 01/27/2012, MC @ 5 wks
BFP #2 04/08/2012, EDD 12/19/2012, DD born 12/15/2012
TTC#2 after AF returned in Jan 2014
I would have sent them. We've had so many fleeting viruses like that - 1 vomit, a minor fever, then all better the next day. Also, I know they are getting it from daycare, so the kids have already been exposed. Plus, worst exposure risk is before symptoms start AND gastroenteritis is contagious for 2 weeks after. I'm not keeping them home for 2 weeks, so what's the point.

RELEASED: June 5, 2007
Virgelee LeDue
EAU CLAIRE — A University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire alumna, who loved fashion and spent more than 60 years collecting dresses, purses and shoes, made an estate gift to the UW-Eau Claire Foundation to increase her fully endowed scholarship for students in social work.
Virgelee LeDue, who died in April 2006, left $16,529 from her estate to the already endowed Elwood and Virgelee LeDue Scholarship at UW-Eau Claire. The gift will allow her fund to annually provide a $1,000 scholarship for a junior, senior or graduate student in social work who has a GPA of 3.0 or better and financial need.
"The social work department has a limited number of scholarships available for deserving students," said Carol Langer, chair of the UW-Eau Claire social work department. "We are particularly grateful for the gift of the Elwood and Virgelee LeDue Scholarship. The student who receives this award will be supported while pursuing academic excellence and a professional social work career. This gift also recognizes student leadership."
LeDue grew up in Neillsville and graduated from what was then the Eau Claire State Teachers College in 1947 with a degree in physical science education. In 1971, she earned a master's degree in communication and speech from UW-Eau Claire.
LeDue taught 30 years, including 19 years as a biology teacher at North High School. She was one of the founders of the Chippewa Valley Theatre Guild. LeDue was an animal lover. In her later years when she no longer had dogs, she spent many hours walking and caring for other people's dogs. LeDue married Elwood LeDue in 1948. Elwood LeDue died in 1987.
"Virgelee embodied the notion of living life to its fullest," said Kimera Way, executive director of the UW-Eau Claire Foundation. "She loved teaching and loved being around young people. It is very fitting that her life's passions have helped support this scholarship that will help young people in the future."
The LeDue gift to UW-Eau Claire is recognized as a contribution to Fulfilling the Promise of Excellence, the UW-Eau Claire Foundation's comprehensive campaign to benefit UW-Eau Claire's people and programs, which will conclude at the end of 2007.

I can handle the protein, the carbs, the fat, and the calories.. but it seems sodium is the hardest one to stay away from.. It adds up so quickly, and even with the whole foods too because vegetables have sodium.
So as a guy at 26 year old, 5'6, 155lbs - what would you say the target for my daily sodium intake should be? And what tips / recommendations would you give for cutting it down?
(I've heard 250 - 500mg for the day is fine and that less = more when it comes to sodium.. but is this figure too low?)

Sorensen: I'll be fit for Bolton
Stoke goalkeeper Thomas Sorensen is confident a hip injury which has forced him to return home early from international duty will not keep him out of Barclays Premier League action at the weekend.The 34-year-old pulled out of Denmark's Euro 2012 qualifier with Cyprus because of a muscle injury sustained in training last week.He opted to play in Friday's 2-1 defeat to Portugal but had to be replaced.However, Sorensen is optimistic of being ready for Saturday's trip to Bolton."It is a small tear in the hip area and an ultrasound scan showed there was some bleeding," he said. "I'm walking all right, but it's the explosive work, like kicking and sprinting, which is a problem."The doctor in Denmark told me this injury usually lasts a week so there shouldn't be a problem for the weekend. It was a difficult decision to come home, but you cannot gamble on this sort of thing. I know I have made the right decision."

welcome aboard!! thanks for posting . to improve the postings:FAQ's about Price Listings Q: Do I post the cash price, or the credit price?A: Most consumers use debit or credit cards when making purchases. We've had far too many complaints from people stating they've gone to a station only to find out they had to pay more than what was quoted on our site. That said, please post the price before the cash discount when possible.

Preexisting Condition…
Scott Coulter
September 26, 2013
I was diagnosed with diabetes when I was 15. Before that, I was just another healthy adolescent kid. After that, I was a 15-year-old kid with a "preexisting condition." At the time, that phrase didn't mean a whole lot to me. I wasn't in charge of my own finances yet. And of course, I was still covered under my parents' health plan. I hadn't yet had to outsmart an insurance system designed to keep me (and my condition) OUT of the system. That didn't start until graduation from college, around the age of 22.
When I graduated, I was still living in Boston. My insurance switched over to COBRA, and as always happens, the rates began steadily climbing. Within a few years I had moved to Philadelphia, and it was on me to find health insurance. Now, I have always made either part or all of my money from music in one way or another — either performing or teaching. All of the work is freelance, and it does not come with health insurance. And so I had to figure out how to get group insurance, since private insurance would deny me outright due to my preexisting condition, something perfectly allowable by law.
In Philadelphia, I managed to find a group plan, funded through an arts organization that offered an umbrella for people like me — artists who needed insurance and were cut out of the loop by that preexisting condition clause in the private insurance markets. It was only offered to residents within the city limits. It was a very unique program. And so I signed up. The coverage wasn't great — it was an HMO, with a lot of red tape, fairly high deductibles, and a limited network. However, it offered prescription coverage and kept me insured.
Remaining insured without a gap was very important. You see, group plans cannot deny you coverage because of your condition, AS LONG AS THERE HAS BEEN NO GAP IN COVERAGE. Once you have a gap, EVERY form of insurance can deny someone with a preexisting condition from coverage, and we're left completely out of the loop, on our own, and pretty much out of luck.
I remained on that plan for about four years, until the rates started climbing, the benefits plummeted, and I found myself in the position of paying $180 a month for just my share of insulin, plus a $300 a month premium. The cost was moving beyond what I could afford. Had I been single at the time, I would have had only one option: abandon music and find a full-time job with benefits. My only option would have been to abandon the work I had spent a lifetime building. Luckily for me, I was married, and I switched over to my wife's group plan, which has been pretty stellar.
Why I'm telling you this
Someone else might point to the rising costs in my HMO, suggest that it was only through a series of fortunate circumstances that I was ABLE to remain insured, and argue that the system should not make access this difficult. We are all shouting back and forth at one another, full of spiteful, fearful, and grandiose political rhetoric about the impending disaster that WILL happen if we (do or do not) overhaul our system.
But you know what's lost in all of this? WE are. We, the millions of people who have been fighting insurance companies our entire lives for access to the medical care we need to simply stay alive! Since I was 22, private insurance has firmly held up a stop sign to me and insisted that I go "somewhere else" for my medical care. And I have. I've had to be creative and very resourceful, always keeping my eyes open for the NEXT stopgap solution, knowing each one is probably temporary – from my college plan, to COBRA, to the artist's alliance, to God-only-knows-what had I not been fortunate enough to be married to someone with access to good coverage.
And I'm tired of it. I'm tired of our system. I'm tired of a medical system that is built on profit. In order for ANY company to increase profit, risk must be minimized. That's economic law. But when it comes to insurance, WE ARE THAT RISK! You and I, and all of the people in this country who most need insurance, all of the people with conditions that require that medical care, are the risk that private insurance turns away.
I don't know what the solution is — I have my opinions on the Affordable Care Act, you have yours. We may disagree on the solution. But there is no denying the problem. We need a better system. We need a system designed to SERVE the people who need medical help, not turn them away. We need a system centered around CARE, not profit. We need to find a better way.
Scott. I am a type 1 diabetic as well and although I am lucky to be covered by a good employer plan, I was very close to having my position done away with which would have left me in the position of having to seek insurance on my own. I did not have to do too much looking to become quite concerned. I agree that the current system must change. I look at the ACA as a step in the right direction but as with many new programs will require regular evaluation and adjustments. I work for a not for profit that happens to be in the insurance industry. I can tell you form my 25 years of experience that there is a difference in philosophy between the for profit and not for profit.
Posted by: Jim | Oct 02, 2013 02:29 PM
Scott, I too am a type 2, but have been w/o Ins. for 13 years. I will be looking forward to your report on how much ACA coverage costs you and for what coverages. As to the caregivers making a "profit", which is analogous to "paycheck", I won't agree with you as long as you take pay for your work.

We waited all yesterday for this to pop up on iTunes and it's finally arrived… No strangers to the tradition of benefit recordings — see the "David Christmas" 7″, "Year Of The Pig," etc. — Fucked Up gathered a bunch of friends to record a cover of Band Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" with all proceeds going to three Canadian organizations focused on ending the disturbing trend of missing and murdered Indigenous women. (The groups receiving 100% of the proceeds: Montreal's Justice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Vancouver's DTES Power of Women Group, and Ottawa's Sisters in Spirit.) Getting in the spirit of things, the Toronto band funded the entire recording with a portion of their $20,000 2009 Polaris Music Prize, which they nabbed for The Chemistry Of Common Life. As far as the friends? Even if it isn't as impressive as "Year Of The Pig"'s fake lineup, the list is weighty.
Joining Fucked Up proper you'll find vocal contributions from Yo La Tengo, GZA, past collaborator Ezra Koenig, Bob Mould, Tegan & Sara, Andrew W.K., Kyp Malone, David Cross, and Kevin Drew. As mentioned, yes, you can currently hear a snippet and purchase the track at iTunes. If you prefer physical things, the song will appear on a 7″ along with an unreleased Fucked Up B-Side in February 2010 (via Matador). And, if you want to see a still photo of Cross and watch Koenig sing the chorus in a cappella, here's that footage.
A side note: Fucked Up are releasing Couple Tracks, a compilation of singles recorded between 2002 – 2009 (along with a two-song limited-edition 7?) on 1/26.
