The youngster, named in reports as Ryan Hooley from Beeston in Nottingham, is in an induced coma in the paediatric intensive care unit at the city's Queen's Medical Centre.
A spokesman for the hospital said he is in a critical but stable condition with his parents at his bedside.
It is believed that Ryan suffered serious head injuries after being involved in the accident in the Primark store on Long Row, Nottingham, at around 2pm on Wednesday, but the exact circumstances are unclear.
A spokesman for Nottingham City Council said it is investigating the incident.
He said: "We responded to reports that a young boy fell from the first floor to the ground floor of Primark on Long Row, Nottingham, on 24 October 2012. We understand the boy is being treated for serious head injuries at the Queen's Medical Centre and our thoughts are with him and his family at this anxious time.
"Where a serious accident takes place on retail premises it is the responsibility of the local council to investigate. Our health and safety officers attended the site with the police and are leading the health and safety investigation into the circumstances of the accident.
"At this stage, it is not possible to comment on the details of the investigation other than to say officers will be visiting the store, contacting witnesses and gathering evidence to establish if there are any health and safety concerns that could be linked to the accident, but at this time this is not known. As this is an open investigation unfortunately only this limited information can be provided at this time."
It is not the first time a child has been involved in an accident of a similar kind in the chain of high street clothing stores. In 2008 a three-year-old old girl, Evie Parry, plunged 100ft from an escalator in a Primark store in Liverpool city centre. She broke her left leg, left arm and suffered internal injuries when she fell from the second floor to the ground floor.
Evie, from Liverpool, was with her family in the Church Street store when the accident happened. She has since recovered from her injuries.

Hi: 11° Lo:1°
A PRISONER was wrongly freed from HMP Hewell because he shared the same surname as another inmate who was due to be released.
The man, who has been named in media reports as Anthony Douglas, walked out of the Tardebigge jail last Wednesday (July 2) after being mistaken for another offender who had finished his sentence.
It is not know how much of his sentence he had left to serve or why he was in prison, but Douglas was eventually arrested the next day after the error came to light.
He is now back in prison and it is believed a member of staff has been suspended following the mix-up.
A Prison Service spokesman said they took public protection extremely seriously and the type of incident was a very rare but regrettable occurrence.
He added:"The police were notified immediately and he was recaptured on July 3.
"An investigation by a senior governor has been launched."
It is not the first time the prison has come under fire for its security.
A murderer serving two life sentences for kidnapping and killing a teenage boy absconded from the open part of the jail last October.
Alan Giles, 56, had been allowed out on day release but failed to return.
Following a nine day search by police he was eventually captured and returned to the site where he
was sentenced to a further six months.
Last month a man from Sandwell, who had been convicted for burglary, was also re-arrested after failing
to return to the prison while on day release.

'Arrow' EP Talks Oliver's Evolution to Hero and the 'Big Bombs' Ahead
Oliver and Malcolm finding out about one another, Moira's motives and just why she's working with the Dark Archer for the "Undertaking" are among the big mysteries to be revealed in the back half of the season, exec producer Marc Guggenheim tells THR.
The CW's Arrow returns with its winter premiere Wednesday to find Stephen Amell's central hero struggling with having endured a beat-down of epic proportions at the hands of Malcolm Merlyn's Dark Archer.
As was revealed in December's midseason finale, John Barrowman's Malcolm is working with none other than Oliver's (Amell) mother, Moira, and plotting a deadly Undertaking that would drastically transform Starling City. Meanwhile, Oliver begins to question whether the list he's been working off of actually originated with his father.
The Hollywood Reporter caught up with Arrow executive producer Marc Guggenheim to preview the second-half of the CW's freshman hit and answer some of the burning questions ahead -- including how Teen Wolf's Colton Haynes will factor into the series' mythology.
PHOTOS: From Comic to Screen: Behind the Scenes of CW's 'Arrow'
THR: After failing against Malcolm, how will we see Oliver struggle?
Marc Guggenheim: That's the question posed by our first episode back. We get under how Oliver is dealing with a crisis of confidence in the wake of a pretty severe beat down he got from the Dark Archer. It's an exploration about the nature of fear for Oliver. Oliver has never had to deal with the fear of death before. One of the things we're using this episode to explore is the way Oliver has changed, from the guy who came back in the pilot to the guy we've seen 10 episodes in. We use this as an opportunity to check in with him emotionally and dig into the fact that when he was on the island, he was making this grand plan to save the city. He never anticipated or expected to deal with his family and friends and all the relationships he's reignited since returning from the island. He wasn't focused on being Oliver Queen, he was on being the Arrow. It's a real challenge for him to deal with possibility of death now that he has all these people in his life. That's what Diggle is there for, to help him manage his fear and be the guy who as Diggle says, "jumps off of rooftops" while still being the Oliver Queen he's come to be since the pilot -- someone who is more engaged with his family and friends and less aloof. At same time, we're telling a season-long arc with Oliver. When we first met him, he was this guy who was damaged and aloof and this angry vigilante. Over course of the first season, we're slowly evolving him into someone who's a better Oliver Queen but also a better hero. It's the transition from vigilante to being a hero; from being the Arrow to being the Green Arrow, which is our shorthand way of saying he starts off being about this vigilante who is all about crossing names from his father's list to being a true hero, someone who's actually trying to be a force for positive change in the city.
THR: What lengths will Oliver go to in order to successfully take down Malcolm? After a beat down like that, he's got to make some fundamental changes to his approach and training.
Guggenheim: The first big change is an emotional one; it's recognizing that he has to change his mindset when he goes into the field -- this is even before he has the rematch with Malcolm. That's something we'll be teasing a little bit; we're going to make you wait a little bit for that epic rematch. Oliver's next major interaction with Malcolm is the last thing in the world you'd expect. Oliver doesn't know that he's the Dark Archer, nor does Malcolm know that Oliver is Arrow. There are two bombs underneath the table in the latter half of the season: When is Oliver going to discover that Malcolm is the Dark Archer and when is Malcolm going to discover that Oliver is the Arrow, and which one is going to come first? We will be revealing the Arrow's identity to another character in short order.
STORY: 'Arrow' EP Andrew Kreisberg on John Barrowman's Reveal, Adding 'Super-Villain Team-Ups'
THR: Any chance that'd be Thea, especially since you've got Roy Harper's potential Speedy character coming soon?
Guggenheim: I don't like to handicap these things!
THR: The other big "bomb" waiting to go off is Oliver learning that his mother is behind his kidnapping and torture. How will you be addressing that?
Guggenheim: That's been something we've been keeping on a low simmer since the pilot. As we started to construct latter half of the season, we discussed how much longer can Oliver go without knowing his mother is up to no good without him seeming stupid or avoiding the thing that's right under his nose. Starting in episode 11 and going through episode 14, is a multiepisode arc that will deal with this question.
THR: Malcolm and Moira are working together. What's their end game? Might they have penned Oliver's hit list?
Guggenheim: That's the big question for remainder of year. In episode nine, we learned of this event that they're planning, the Undertaking, and we're starting to lay the foundation for Oliver making the discovery of what the Undertaking is. It's our big end game for the season. The question of what Moira and Malcolm are up to will be explored as we go through episode 10 and on. It may not be quite what you expect but it sets up our big finale. The twists and turns of getting there is part of the fun of the second half of the season.
THR: Colton Haynes will play Roy Harper. What's the nature of his relationship like with Oliver? Might he be Speedy?
Guggenheim: We're going to start off with Roy being a love interest for Thea. The first iteration of his relationship with Oliver will be as the new boyfriend to his younger sister. We saw in episode 9 the way Oliver tends to react to guys who date his sister. We plan on having a bit of fun with that. We also plan on having fun with the fact that Roy is from The Glades, this area that's the worst of the worst in Starling City. That's a very far cry from the way the Queens live their lives and we'll have some fun with the worlds colliding, both in terms of Thea and Roy and Oliver and Roy.
THR: In other news, the CW is casting Diana for its Wonder Woman prequel, Amazon. Considering your background in the genre, whom do you like for the role?
Guggenheim: Angelina Jolie, but I don't think she'll be doing television anytime soon. She would be the entirety of the CW's budget. I'd like them to go with an unknown. I think much the same way we cast Stephen Amell, who had been on some shows but wasn't a household name, I'd like them to take the same approach with Diana.
Arrow airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on the CW. Hit the comments with what you're looking forward to seeing.

Gravitational waves discovery heralds a new frontier in astrophysics and cosmology, scientists say
The discovery of evidence of primordial gravitational waves will help us unlock the secrets to how the Universe was born, astrophysicists at the University of Sheffield say.
Echoes of the big bang have been identified in research published today (17 March 2014) by scientists at Harvard University.
Dr Ed Daw from the University of Sheffield's Department of Physics and Astronomy, said: "Gravitational waves emitted at the time of the big bang can tell us how the Universe came to exist. The BICEP experiment is announcing today the detection of evidence for these primordial waves. If these results prove correct, we will have new key information on the very early Universe, information that is hard to get from any other source."
As astrophysicists at the University gather to explore the findings, a situation which is being replicated at leading scientific research centres around the world, Dr Ed Daw and his colleagues are considering the impact this new insight into the birth of the Universe may have on research being conducted in Sheffield.
Dr Daw added: "Gravitational waves are a new frontier in astrophysics and cosmology. If these findings are accurate then it will further strengthen our understanding of how the Universe formed.
"Our group here in Sheffield is directly involved in the LIGO, Virgo and GEO experiments, which aim to detect gravitational waves directly using ground based laser interferometers. We will be greatly encouraged if this evidence of gravitational waves from the big bang proves correct."

LGBT Groups Slam 'Poison Pill' Amendments to Immigration Bill
A coalition of the nation's leading LGBT advocacy organizations called several amendments to the Senate immigration reform bill "poison pills that threaten the entire legislation." The Senate is considering amendments to the immigration reform bill this week that could negatively impact all immigrants and LGBT immigrant in particular, according to a statement released Wednesday by the National Center for Lesbian Rights, GLAAD, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, United We Dream and Queer Undocumented Immigrant Project, GetEQUAL, National Center for Transgender Equality, Equality Federation and National Queer Asian Pacific Islander Alliance.
Increased Enforcement: The Senate rejected two amendments requiring more enforcement at the border as a condition of implementing or completing a legalization program: Vitter 1228, which failed 36-58, and Thune 1197, which failed 39-54.
"Harsher enforcement mechanisms for immigrants will have a disproportionately very negative impact on LGBT immigrants, whom studies have shown receive harsher punishments than their non-LGBT peers — especially in the case of LGBT people of color," according to the statement released by LGBT advocacy groups.
Health Benefits: One amendment being considered would continue to deny health benefits to immigrants five years after they become legal residents. This means immigrants could be eligible for citizenship after 13 years, but wouldn't be able to get health care subsidies for at least 15 years or longer.
"Many LGBT people are unable to get health benefits for their partners and children because of a lack of family recognition. Morevoer, because LGBT people are more likely to live below the poverty line, access to affordable health care is especially important to the community," according to leading LGBT advocacy groups. "These factors make access to the benefits of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and Medicaid particularly crucial for the LGBT community. The 13-year roadmap to citizenship is too long as it is; these punitive provisions make that road even more difficult."
Social Security: The Senate is also considering amendments that would require undocumented immigrants to pay back taxes and limit their access to Social Security retirement benefits.
"These punitive amendments go against the moral imperative of compassionate immigration reform," according to LGBT advocacy organizations.

simon conway morrisThe facts of nature are what they are, but we can only view them through the spectacles of our mind. Our mind works largely by metaphor and comparison, not always (or often) by relentless logic. When we are caught in conceptual traps, the best exit is often a change in metaphor not because the new guideline will be truer to nature (for neither the old nor the new metaphor lies "out there" in the woods), but because we need a shift to more fruitful perspectives, and metaphor is often the best agent of conceptual transition.

Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich Options For Kids
It's National PB&J Day! 5 New Ways to Enjoy the Kiddie Classic
Peek into any 10 lunchboxes, and you'll find more than a few peanut butter and jelly sandwiches. When it comes to edible classics, the PB&J is a staple in most children's diets. Though the flavors vary, parents usually lather the nut paste on one slice of bread, spread a sweet fruit jam on another, and then slice the sandwich in half for their kiddos to take to school.
To mix things up a bit, we asked chef Catherine McCord, founder of Weelicious and mother of two, to reinvent the sandwich classic five different, kid-friendly ways. Check out her delicious options, which are bound to become household favorites!

My family likes to make PB & J wafflewiches. The grid pattern helps to keep everything from sliding to the bottom. We also put PB on waffles and pancakes with syup instead of butter.
My kids school won't let them take any nut products or things made in factories with nuts. Shame as a peanut butter sandwich or a few Brazil nuts are great in a lunchbox!

PoliticsDeadly fighting rages in Libya's Bani Walid Clashes around the besieged former Gaddafi stronghold continue to take their toll, a year after Libya was "liberated". 23 Oct 2012 08:54 GMT | Politics, Africa, Libya At least three people have been killed and seven more injured in fighting in the northern Libyan town of Bani Walid. The casualties come as clashes continue in the town of 85,000 residents, a former stronghold of ousted leader Muammar Gaddafi. Libyan soldiers have been fighting Gaddafi loyalists in the beseiged town for more than three weeks. But troops blame officials for not providing enough equipment or supplies to win the battle. "We have nothing," Field Commander Mohamed Hetwash told Al Jazeera. "We don't know why. The problem is all the people here are under the administration of the minister of defence - and we buy the weapons, we buy the water, we buy the food, by ourselves. Rich people in Tripoli buy the food for us - the minister is absent." The shortages are worse inside the city, say families fleeing the violence, which comes exactly a year after Libya was declared "liberated" by armed fighters and opposition politicians. Both food and water are scarce commodities, and the town's hospital has come under fire, residents told reporters. The isolated hilltop town, some 140km south of Tripoli, was one of the final bastions of Gaddafi support to surrender to the rebels after the former leader's overthrow last year. Pro-government forces moved up to Bani Walid early this month following the death of Omran Shaban, who died after two months in detention there. Shaban, from the city of Misurata, was the man who found Gaddafi hiding in a drain pipe outside Sirte on October 20, 2011. Libya's congress ordered the defence and interior ministries to find those suspected of abducting, torturing and killingShaban. It gave Bani Walid a deadline to hand them over. Ongoing unrest The siege of Bani Walid highlights the inability of new rulers of Libya to reconcile former rebel fighters and Gaddafi loyalists, and also its failure to bring many of the fighters that deposed the dictator fully under its control. In scenes reminiscent of the civil war, scores of cars filled with families, and pick-up trucks laden with mattresses, children and food lined up at a government-run check point outside Bani Walid. "We haven't slept in days from the fear of dying and the sounds of shelling," said Mohammed Abdel-Salam, as his car was searched. "My house was shelled with a rocket and destroyed. Medicine is becoming scarce in pharmacies, even food in shops." Two pro-government fighters were killed near Bani Walid on Monday, one of the fighters said. Libya state news agency LANA said on Sunday that 22 pro-government troops had been killed and some 200 wounded, but it did not say when. A number of fleeing families were reportedly forced back to the western part of Bani Walid, when troops opened fireat their convoy, a tribal elder inside the city told Reuters. "The families wanted to take their children away from the violence but militias under the guise of government forces shotat them to make them turn back," said Mohammed Shetawi. He said the central Bani Walid General Hospital had come under rocket attack and patients had to be evacuated on Sunday. "The injured have been sent to hiding places, private homes and mosques, he said. "We hope these armed gangs will respect the mosques, but we don't think so." 'Tribal' rivalry Wounded from Bani Walid, home to the Warfalla tribe, including women and children, were being treated in the nearby town of Tarhouna where hospital officials appealed for medicine. Shetawi blamed fighters from Misurata for attacking Bani Walid. The Misurata tribe and the Warfalla are both parts of the Berber Hawwara confederacy. "What you are seeing in Bani Walid is an age-old tribal feud between Misurata and Bani Walid, and the militias are usingthe government as protection," he said. About 500 protesters broke into the grounds of Libya's parliament building on Sunday to demand an end to the violence in Bani Walid. Some 400 protesters also stormed the offices of a private television station in the eastern city of Benghazi on Saturdayafter it announced the arrest of Gaddafi-era government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim and the capture and death of thedictator's son, Khamis Gaddafi. No evidence was provided for either claim, and officials later apologised for announcing the news without confirmation. "They are using this news to justify their violent actions against Bani Walid," said Shetawi. "If they can pretend they have captured Gaddafi supporters inside the city then they think Libyans will support their campaign of violence."Source: Al Jazeera And Agencies

Book Biz: Square Books touts Dean Faulkner Wells' book about Oxford's famous family
by Lynn Lofton
Published: April 3,2011
Tags: Book Biz, Dean Faulkner Wells, Every Day in the Sun, Square Books
Square Books owner Richard Howarth feels Dean Faulkner Wells has written the definitive memoir of her famous uncle and other family members. After all there have been numerous books that sought to bring her famous uncle to life; some of them also written by family members and some by family friends.
"There is no one in the family left to dispute or complain about or be embarrassed by what Dean Faulkner Wells might say; so praise the Lord, she says it all," Howarth said. "And she says it well. There have been other Faulkner family memoirs, but none of these gets the reader quite as close to what feels like the real thing as Dean Faulkner Wells, and it is due to this writer's combination of honesty and artful prose."
To the world William Faulkner was an award-winning literary giant. To Wells he was "Pappy," the only father she knew. Her father and William Faulkner's brother, Dean Swift Faulkner, died in a plane crash before his only child was born. William Faulkner raised her and educated her as his own. She is the sole surviving family member of the generation that followed that of William Faulkner.
"Given Dean Wells' candor about her own life in this book, her insight into the lives of others has great verity," Howarth said. "We get a credible glimpse of the lives of Jill, Vicki and Cho Cho; of Dean's mother and father and stepfather; of other family members, friends; and, indeed, Faulkner's lovers; and, of course, of 'Pappy.'
"Because what Dean Wells writes is so well crafted and fascinating, in one sense you don't really care who these people are, or whether they were famous or important. 'Every Day in the Sun' provides a beautiful rendition of a girl's coming of age among an unusual family, and is highly entertaining and interesting, a must for Faulknerphiles, for Oxonians and for readers everywhere who enjoy fine books."
Well-known Southern writers, including Mark Childress, Winston Groom, Ellen Gilchrist and Roy Blount Jr., have words of praise for "Every Day in the Sun," too.

April 4th, 2011 at 4:09 pmDear Lynn Lofton,
The book's title is "Every Day by the Sun." The owner of Square Books is Richard Howorth. You need to check your facts, Ms. Lofton. This is pretty lame for Mississippi Business Journal.

Assignment February 27 / March 2 – Peace?
How were those trenches? What did the AEF do "Over There"? Make sure you check out the impact of the AEF, as one test question will come from this reading!
Once the war ended, what happened? An easy peace treaty meeting in Paris – typical, right? Not so fast …
For your next class, preview the peace process that came after the war by reading from ABC-CLIO (usmstudent, historyrules) entitled "The Processes of Peace: Introduction: Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points" concerning the Paris Peace Conference and the Treaty of Versailles. The History Channel also has a decent overview video and reading. You can also watch Peace, Diplomacy, and Reparation. As you read and watch, you should be able to :
- … generally describe Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points.
- … discuss why the rest of the "Big Four" opposed Wilson's Fourteen Points.
- … give a broad outline of the actual peace provisions of the Treaty of Versailles.
- … discuss why the Treaty of Versailles was opposed by the Senate and some of the public in the US.
- … describe how the Versailles process was a failure in the goal of continuous world peace.
Please come to class with some questions about the peace process, as we will discuss it in detail.
You can also spend some time thinking about the legacy of the Great War – The War to End All Wars – World War I.
Check out War Without End, What Did We Learn? and WWI Casualty and Death Tables from PBS to THINK about the overall impact of the Great War, both globally and in the United States. Also, check out the website for the World War I Memorial and sign the petition to rededicate it – we may see it in DC. You may also want to check out the description of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery – four or you will lay a wreath there in six weeks.

Assignment February 25/26 – OVER THERE!
You should have a solid understanding of America's entry into the Great War, including the rationale outline by Woodrow Wilson in his war message to Congress. Now it's time to go "Over There" and become part of the AEF – The American Expeditionary Force. To prepare for your next class experience, please carefully read Welcome to the AEF, using this reading guide to direct you. Make sure you listen to "Over There" by George Cohen – it's a classic! We will find out the challenges that the men faced in the trenches on the Western Front (check out this animation to get a preview, as well as the video below).
In English, you will also get the material you need for the Home Front discussion we will have on Wednesday. Use Over Here – The American Home Front to complete the general information as well as the specific role sheet presented to you in class. You will share your story (and a primary source or two) with everyone in class. If you don't fill in all of the notes on your note sheet, you should be all right – but you have to be prepared for your role!
You should also take a look at how the Great War affected Wisconsin. I have a podcast you should listen to regarding Milwaukee (one test question will come from it, and there is a spot for notes on your Home Front handout), and you can also check out some of the following links below – mostly because you love history and Wisconsin …
- Through The World Wars at the Wisconsin Veteran Museum – you may have been here in 4th grade – and you can visit it for extra credit over the next couple of weeks!
- Roses of No Man's Land and Eyes of the Army – Two very cool sites from the Wisconsin Veterans Museum, chock full of primary sources!

IN CLASS February 25/26 – Should the US enter the Great War?

Like this WWI stuff? Want to watch for some EC?
Interested in checking out some WWI movies? How about …
All Quiet on the Western Front (1930) – An English language adaptation of the famous novel by German author Erich Maria Remarque. The film follows a group of German schoolboys as they enlist at the beginning of WWI and experience the highs and lows of war. While it is not from an American perspective, it is the most famous movie on World War I. It was also the 1930 Academy Award winner for best picture. There is a more recent television version of the movie from 1979.
Sergeant York (1941) – A hillbilly sharpshooter becomes one of the most celebrated American heroes of WWI when he single-handedly attacks and captures a German position using the same strategy as in turkey shoot. Gary Cooper won an Oscar for his performance in the title role.
Paths of Glory (1957) – "The futility and irony of the war in the trenches in WWI is shown as a unit commander in the French army must deal with the mutiny of his men and a glory-seeking general after part of his force falls back under fire in an impossible attack." (IMDB.com)
In Love and War (1996) – "Reporter Ernest Hemingway is an ambulance driver in Italy during World War I. While bravely risking his life in the line of duty, he is injured and ends up in the hospital, where he falls in love with his nurse, Agnes von Kurowsky." (IMDB.com). A love story with the war as a backdrop. Meh.
The Lost Battalion (2001) (TV) – The tagline for the movie tells the story – "Caught between two lines of fire, the Germans gave them two options: surrender or die. They chose a third." From A&E, this film chronicles an American battalion of over 500 men that is trapped behind enemy lines in the Argonne Forest in October 1918. The film also has a website with some great information about WWI. I have a copy of this available in my classroom!
Flyboys (2006) – This film chronicles the story of the Lafayette Escadrille, young Americans who volunteered for the French military before the U.S. entered World War I. the men became legendary heroes and country's first fighter pilots. The DVD site has some fun games – try out Flyboys n' the Hood!
Red Baron (2008) – I haven't seen ii, but it's a pretty simple plot explanation – the life of German piolt Manfred von Richthofen
War Horse (2011) – This movie about, well, a horse in World War I was up for an Oscar … I liked it!

Assignment February 23/24 – War in Europe begins – Should the US join?
Hopefully you have a decent idea about the origins of the Great War – The War to End All Wars – WORLD WAR I. Please review the material below to get a better understanding about the long term causes of the war in Europe – and maybe think of some questions! Want some more info? Check out …
- The videos for the four MAIN causes of the war in Europe -Militarism / Alliances / Imperialism / Nationalism
- A great animated map that gives an overview of the short term cause of the war – the assassination!
- An AWESOME three part video on the assassination of the Archduke from the BBC – Part 1 / Part 2 / Part 3
- A map that provides a simple timeline of the path to war in Europe
We now know that war broke out in Europe in 1914, with the entire continent being affected by the "war to end all wars." The United States did not get involved militarily until 1917, however. Did they need to join in the fray "over there"? In our next class, we will discuss American involvement in the war. To prepare, you should also complete "Should America Enter the Great War"?" using the handout from class and the Advice for Mr. Wilson website. Make sure you follow the directions carefully – you should come to class with advice for the President!

In class February 23/24 – Should the US have been an imperial nation?
Let's take a look at what you came up with as you examined the various instances of American involvement with other countries at the turn of the century. Post your thesis (and possibly your cartoon) in the proper spot on the board for your section!
Imperialism Section 1 / Imperialism Section 2 / Imperialism Section 3 / Imperialism Section 4 / Imperialism Section 5
After you have heard the various ideas from your classmates and had any additional questins answered, post your finished paragraphs in the proper section of google classroom.

DEFINITION of 'SEC Form S-6'
A filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which unit investment trusts use to register securities they issue.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'SEC Form S-6'
Form S-6, is also known as the Registration Statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 for unit investment trusts registered on Form N-8B-2. The Securities Exchange Act of 1933, often referred to as the "truth in securities" law, requires that these registration forms, providing essential facts, are filed to disclose important information upon registration of a company's securities. This helps the SEC achieve the objectives of this act - requiring investors to receive significant information regarding securities offered, and to prohibit fraud in the sale of the offered securities.

JRTs are so athletic and intelligent and they need a "job".
Fun Loving Puppies for Fun Loving People
I was �bitten by the Jack Russell bug� many years ago & this entire web site is a testament to my �addiction�. Yes, I call it an �addiction� because if you are like myself & many others, once you�ve had a Jack Russell you will never want a different small breed. Jack Russell Terriers (JRTs) are the epitome of the �BIG DOG� in a �small package�, which in itself can be both endearing & challenging. They are energetic and ultra intelligent so with the proper training to channel their energy in the correct direction, JRTs are a ton of fun:) Be sure to take the time to view the video at this link and enjoy, yet another, well trained JRT; http://www.flixxy.com/worlds-coolest-dog.htm.
BEFORE, you take the plunge on the acquisition of a JRT puppy, please take the time to click on this link http://www.terrier.com/breed/jrprofiler.php3 and take the JRT �INTERACTIVE PROFILER� to see how compatible a Jack Russell might be for your household. Please take into consideration that acquiring a puppy is a life long commitment. They will become an important family member, not a disposable chattel. I hope that this information will enlighten you in your quest for a puppy & help you make the decision as to whether or not a JRT is the right dog for you.
Breeding outgoing, healthy puppies is fun, yet full of challenges along the way. Thorough research is completed on each & every prospective litter's pedigree with an emphasis placed first and foremost on a stable temperament & health.
With the JRTCA/JRTCC�s unique breed registry, individual adult terriers are registered on their own merit no younger than one year of age. Each terrier must pass a comprehensive Vet examination for health before that terrier is allowed to enter into our exclusive breed Registry and used in my breeding program. All adults are BAER (hearing) tested & CERF (eyes) tested normal before proceeding with planned breedings.
I provide each puppy purchaser with a 2 year written health guarantee against any genetic disorder. I also offer each new owner a sample of the puppy food to get started, a four (4) generation pedigree, vaccination record, vet health certificate, information about raising and training your new puppy along with ongoing support after you take your puppy home.
Along this vein, Conquest Terriers are fed only the top quality brand of dog food interspersed with a raw diet to keep their health at its optimum level.
All litters of puppies are born and raised in the house. They are stimulated from 3 to 16 days of age using the �Early Neurological Stimulation Method� developed by Carmen L. Battaglia, PhD. Studies have shown that this mild form of stress is enough to stimulate hormonal, adrenal and pituitary systems. When tested later as adults, these same animals were better able to withstand stress than their littermates who were not exposed to the same early stress exercises. As adults, they responded to stress in �a graded fashion�, while their non-stressed littermates responded in an �all or nothing way�. Benefits of this stimulation as observed in canines that were exposed to the stimulation exercises are;
1 � Improved cardio vascular performance (heart rate) 2 � Stronger heart beats 3 � Stronger adrenal glands 4 � More tolerance to stress 5 � Greater resistance to disease.
In tests of learning, stimulated pups were found to be more active & exploratory than their non-stimulated littermates over which they were dominant in competitive situations.
Conquest pups are introduced to litter training as soon as the weaning process starts, which is around 4 weeks of age. By the time they are ready for their new homes, they are very clean and use their litter on a consistent basis. Due to their litter training they realize that there is a �good and a bad place to go�, they easily make the transition to �potty� training outside.
I sell the majority of my Jack Russell Terrier puppies as pets (they must be spayed or neutered). I require a non-refundable deposit of $100.00 to reserve a puppy. If you are buying a pet from a distance too far to drive, you must fly in to meet and decide if you'd like to purchase the puppy and then take that puppy home with you. I no longer fly pet puppies sight unseen due to new government regulations. I accept money orders or Pay Pal for your deposits & receipts are mailed but only if requested. The balance is due when you pick up your puppy.
