I know every child is different, but would you let your year 7 child collect their sibling from Prep (schools are opposite each other) and walk home 15 minutes and then be at home together for an hour until you or hubby got home from work???
Is it even legal? #2Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:24 PM
Yes I would do it.
Edited by LindsayMK, 13 November 2012 - 03:25 PM. #3Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:32 PM
Yep! As long as the 12 year old is a responsible sort. You could always get them to call you when they got safe home?
#4Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:35 PM
i wouldn't ..it just feels like too much responsibility at such a young age but that's just my opinion
#5Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:36 PM
I'm asking this same question now. My DSD is 12 and my DS is almost 6 (in prep)...DSD is asking for babysitting duties and DS is asking for DSD to walk him home from school!
#6Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:36 PM
With my two, Nope, because they fight like lunatics sometimes. The younger thinks the elder is "bossy" and it all goes downhill from there.
TBH, I know quite a few people who do do this because they have very compliant children and no other option. #7Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:38 PM
#8Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:40 PM
No, my five year old still gets excited and I think it would be quite easy to loose them at pick up, such as if the elder child stopped to chat to a friend.
I always think of these questions in the way of would you and the 12 year old be able to handle the fall out if anything did go wrong. I don't think I could put that onto a 12 year old. I would probably trust them at home but it is the walk home and crossing roads that would concern me. Karen #9Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:40 PM
My sister and myself and my twin brother used to walk home a pretty fair way after school(or ride bikes more often) and be home by ourselves for a few hours. Nothing bad happened.
We were 12 and 10. I'd do it. #10Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:42 PM QUOTE (PinkPaper @ 13/11/2012, 04:36 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm asking this same question now. My DSD is 12 and my DS is almost 6 (in prep)...DSD is asking for babysitting duties and DS is asking for DSD to walk him home from school! I think in this case I would feel comfortable as both children feel comfortable. If both children didn't feel comfortable I wouldn't. #11Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:43 PM
Would i let the first half of that happen? Yes. The bit that would worry me is staying at home for an hour on their own.
#12Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:48 PM
Yes I would. But I would have the older one call to say they had arrived home safely.
Edited by Funwith3, 13 November 2012 - 03:50 PM. #13Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:50 PM
No way. Not unless you have a very responsible 12 year old and a very compliant 5 year old.
QUOTE My sister and myself and my twin brother used to walk home a pretty fair way after school(or ride bikes more often) and be home by ourselves for a few hours. Nothing bad happened. We were 12 and 10. I'd do it. 10 is very different to 5. At 10, the 12 year old is not taking the bulk of the responsibility - they are more equals. Not so with a 5 year old. Edited by ~maryanne~, 13 November 2012 - 03:52 PM. #14Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:50 PM
Not my 13yr old & 8yr olds. DD8 would probably kill DD13 before we got home.
Thought I would add. My brothers and I used to walk home from school and just walk up the back stairs and let ourselves in, because mum would leave the back door unlocked if she went out. We would just make something to eat and then go downstairs and play on the pool table until mum or dad got home. There was the odd occasion where someone got injured by a flying pool ball, but a packet of frozen peas and we were fine.

#16Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:58 PM
I do this already with my 13yo and 5yo and it is fine. It is only once a week as it is quite a thrill for my 5yo to be picked up by her big sister but I don't think it is fair on my 13yo to have to babysit every school day.
It does depend on the children involved though. #17Posted 13 November 2012 - 03:58 PM
Sure. My brother and sister (who are 5 and 6 years older than me) walked home with me from prep (they were grade 5 and 6), until they left primary school, after that I walked home by myself! It was about a 1-2km and crossed about 6 roads, including 2 main roads (one was outside the school so had a crossing guard, the other we crossed at lights).
Can't remember if we arrived to no one home - but I suspect we did on more than one occasion. #18Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:02 PM
Totally depends on the individual kids. If Miss 12 is responsible and likes spending time with Miss 6 and Miss 6 is the sort of kid who will do as she is told then go for it. I wouldn't have but mine used to have WWIII if left in the same house together.
#19Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:02 PM
Yes I would.
Perhaps do a trial period and see if they actually cope with the demands of it and if they don't then maybe try it again at a later time e.g. next year etc. Set some ground rules for them and have them stick to it and really drive it home to them that safety is paramount. #20Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:04 PM
No. Not because I don't think a lot of 12 year olds are capable of doing it, just because I think it is a huge responsibility to place on a 12 year old. I have never been of the opinion that it is the resposibility of older siblings to care for younger ones.
#21Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:06 PM
No. Absolutely not.
#22Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:14 PM
I think that by the time she is 12 my 7 year would be able to look after her younger sister (who is now 2).
So for me it would be entirely dependant on how my two year old is in 5 years. If she carries on her current trajectory I think she might be too much of a handful for even the most responsible 12 year old. Totally child dependant. #23Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:14 PM
No but thats because I know my children and I can't have a shower without huge dramas. I think it depends on the children you have but even then I think I would be too nervous to do it.
#24Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:14 PM
I'd do it. There are a lot of kids at our school who get picked up by elder siblings from the local high school
#25Posted 13 November 2012 - 04:20 PM
No. I would probably let a 12 year old walk home and also spend up to an hour at home unsupervised. But, I would not be comfortable with them being responsible for a five year old.

Speculative investors have adopted a bearish stance on Nike, Inc. (NYSE:NKE - 97.72) lately, with put options enjoying a surge in popularity over their call counterparts. On Monday alone, options traders bought to open 3,211 puts on NKE, according to volume data from the International Securities Exchange (ISE), Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE), and NASDAQ OMX PHLX (PHLX). Meanwhile, only 414 calls were purchased, netting the stock a single-day put/call volume ratio of 7.76 across all three exchanges.
From a broader perspective, NKE has racked up a 10-day ISE/CBOE/PHLX put/call volume ratio of 3.31, as puts bought to open have more than tripled calls over the past couple of weeks. This ratio registers in the 92nd percentile of its annual range, suggesting that speculative players have rarely shown a greater preference for bearish bets over bullish.
The skeptical skew is also clearly evident among short-term traders, with NKE's Schaeffer's put/call open interest ratio (SOIR) checking in at 1.45. This ratio ranks above 71% of other such readings taken over the past 52 weeks, indicating that near-term options players are more put-heavy than usual.
NKE shares haven't exactly set the world on fire in 2012, with the stock up just about 1% since the start of the year. More recently, the security has been stifled by resistance in the $98-$100 area, which shows no signs of weakening just yet. Meanwhile, peak put open interest of 5,461 contracts can be found at the December 100 strike -- suggesting that quite a few bears expect NKE to remain pinned below the century level over the near term.

I've been searching YEARS for products to clear up my nasty cystic acne. I had one particularly huge lump on my jawline that wouldnt budge for months. I bought this brush and it was flattened within days. My skin is now, two weeks later, clear and I'm focused on clearing up scarring. It makes products work 100000x better!!
This + Alpha Hydrox 10% enhanced lotion= clear skin and a very ecstatic me...$40 dollars very, very well spent
8 out of 8 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Hm, well, I bought this shortly after I saw it advertised and read the few reviews that were on MUA at the time. Got the Walgreen's $30 deal with full size bonus cleanser. I used this for a couple weeks. Maybe less. The Olay cleanser was too harsh for my sensitive/cystic acne-prone/melasma skin. In fact, the melasma seemed to worsen after about a week of using the cleanser and brush. I then tried using the brush with Dr. Woods Shea butter/ black soap. Result: WAY too drying. Probably the soap.
Anyway, my experience is that using this for a minute or so twice per days did no better at cleansing or exfoliating than the microfiber cleansing cloths I bought at Bed, Bath and Beyond that were meant for household dusting and cleaning.
Seriously doesn't exfoliate any better and takes more time. It feels good, but time wasted and no better results than my cloths = not worth it.
4/16/11 - UPDATE! After reading all the glowing reviews on here, I decided to give it another shot. I DO like it. I use with Black Soap (but not Dr. Brown's liquid version b/c that was too harsh/drying), and I only use it once a day (at night) unless I have a cyst forming or something that needs to be cleared (ahem, like a popped zit). In those cases, I spot treat with the included Olay exfoliating cleanser it came with. That stuff is too harsh for regular use on my skin. The brush does seem to help make products penetrate the skin more effectively. The one thing is that it does not feel harsh when using- it feels quite nice and soft- but it will leave my skin raw and red if I use too long. I've had to learn this lesson a few times...:P
Now I would recommend!
If I could recommend one product, it would be this. I get all of my makeup off and I don't have to use a toner! I really like to wash with the Olay exfoliating cleanser FIRST then I use the cleanser and brush. It's clean and smooth like after I get a facial. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I have been using this for 3 weeks and I think my skin feels smoother. I have fairly good skin, but I hear this makes your moisturizer get into your skin better. I would love to stop the wrinkles from getting worse. We'll see. I don't think you need to use the $20 cleanser it came with. I have been using the olay dry skin cleanser since I ran out of the trial size one that comes with this. Now I have been using it around 3 months and my skin really looks better. I use it every single day. You have to commit yourself to do it and it will definately improve your skin.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I ordered one of these online the other day and found out it was going to be on backorder for a couple of weeks. No good. I found it at Target tonight and just used it for the first time. First I removed all my makeup with my normal foaming cleanser before using the cleansing tool, then I used a few drops of Dr. Bronner's Magic 18-in-1 Hemp Lavender Pure-Castile Soap (diluted) with the cleansing tool. I am in love! My skin has never felt so clean and soft. I am keeping the second one on backorder so my daughter can have one of her own. Amazing! Edit after two weeks: I have tried the exfoliating cleanser that came with this product. It is okay. I would recommend using your normal cleanser most of the time and use the exfoliating cleanser when you feel your skin needs an extra boost. I wash once first and rinse before using the tool so that I am not moving soiled makeup all over my face as I cleanse. I am still loving this tool and, unfortunately, still waiting for the one I ordered on line to arrive. Not sure what is going on with Target but this was on first online order with them and I am not impressed. The Up and Up brand moisturizer I ordered was on backorder and now they have cancelled it. Strange as it is their brand of moisturizer!

this product deserves all the awesome reviews it's been getting. i purchased this about a week ago after browsing reviews & i am beyond happy with it. i marked it as being a tad expensive, but when compared to the clarisonic, this is a steal! the brush head isn't too firm but isn't too soft...it's just right for daily exfoliating (which i do everyday) i like that it has two speeds as well, so you can really deep clean/buff certain areas. i don't use the cleanser provided, though, because i prefer a different one (yes to tomatoes facial gel) my skin has been looking awesome! it's balanced, toned, CLEAN & my dry skin is gently going away. this also helped clear up a couple blemishes i was getting that would have normally taken a week to get rid of. this is an absolute "must try" product! you can also catch this on sale at walgreens, where you purchase the brush & get a full sized olay cleanser for free. sweet!

After seeing and hearing all the hype regarding this product I had to give it a shot. I own a clarisonic mia and it works pretty well...or at least I thought it did until I used this bad boy! My face has never felt so clean!! I've had much fewer breakouts, my skin is smoother and is less oily. This is definitely an HG beauty tool for me!

I got my Pro X Advanced Cleaning System five days ago. I bought it because I had a similar product in high school that I loved (a long, long, time ago.) When I started having skin problems this winter, like flaking and mild breakouts, I decided to get the Pro X. In five days it has made a huge difference in my skin's appearance. I have not been using the Pro X cleanser that came with it. I like to use Olay bar soap and rinse with cool water. Once a week I use St. Ives apricot scrub. I always use a very lightweigh moisturizer after I use the Pro X in the evening. This was by far the best investment I have made for my skin in a long time. When I compare the cost to some of the (useless& expensive) lotions or cremes I have purchased, the price was excellent.

I will buy this again..and again and again! Bought this from Target last week at $29.99 and it was worth every penny. Ivee been wanting a Clarisonic for yearsss but could never bring myself to fork over the $200.00. I saw this on MUA and I am SO glad I went out and bought it! Being a RAM user, I get lots of flakes. This has gently buffed all the flakies away and I have baby smooth skin. My moisturizer just sinks in so nicely afterwards! Like others, I had two cystic pimples on my forehead and gently used the brush on them. Didnt hurt at all and they are slowly going away. The unit comes with one brush head and a sample size of their exfoliating wash. The sample was too harsh for my skin, I got a bit of a rash on my face after using it so now I am just using it with my Trader Joe's face wash and its perfect. Rocking the battery compartment was a little tricky but I got the hang of it-it's easier if you grip the top with your left hand and the bottom with your right hand and rock them in opposite directions to get it to pop off. I am really interested in buying the DDF refill. Another user said the two units are compatible and the DDF comes with two sponge tips, one brush tip and a bottle of their cystals. Found it online for between $35.00-$50.00. It's like your own microdermabrasion?! Anyway, BUY THIS. its so worth it. Also, if you look online, the OLAY & the DDF are exactlyyyy the same, except one costs $30.00 and the other costs $90.00! the only thing i wish this had is a carrying case. i've been taking it to my boyfriends house in a soft little bag but a hard carrying case would be better to protect it if it should fall...

This section provides information about important movements and styles in modern art.
34 art movements found
Abstract Expressionism
Abstract Expressionism
A tendency among mainly New York painters after World War II, all of whom were committed to an expressive art of profound emotion and universal themes, Abstract Expressionism embraces the spacial breakthroughs of Jackson Pollock, color field painting of Mark Rothko, as well as the gestural abstraction of Willem de Kooning. Most were inspired by Surrealism and abstract art to create a new style fitted to the post-war mood of anxiety and trauma. Their success set the stage for America's post-war dominance of the international art world.
Art Nouveau
Art Nouveau
Art Nouveau was a movement that swept through the decorative arts and architecture in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Artists drew inspiration from both organic and geometric forms, evolving elegant designs that united flowing, natural forms with more angular contours.
Arte Povera
Arte Povera
Arte Povera is a style of modern art. The term was introduced in Italy during a period of upheaval at the end of the 1960s. The term centered on a group of Italian artists who attacked established institutions with art made from unconventional materials. They often used found objects in their works.
Ashcan School
Ashcan School
Known for its gritty urban subject matter, dark palette, and gestural brushwork, the Ashcan School was a loosely knit group of artists based in New York City who were inspired by the painter Robert Henri. The group believed in the worthiness of immigrant and working-class life as artistic subject matter and in an art that depicted the real rather than an elitist ideal. While their subject matter was revolutionary, their manner of painting finds precedents in the Realism of seventeenth-century Spanish and Dutch art, and also with nineteenth-century French painting. In the United States, prior to the arrival of the Ashcan School, American Impressionism, with its pleasing and luscious displays of the feminine and peaceful idylls, held sway. After the Ashcan School, more artists focused on modernity and their own expressive reactions to what they encountered. Their main achievement was to reverse the formula of previous New York painters by focusing on the dynamic energy of the people. Yet, with the arrival of European modernism to New York via the Armory Show (1913), the Ashcan School, with its strong foundation in Realism, was retrograde in comparison.
Bauhaus is a style and movement associated with the Bauhaus school, an extremely influential art and design school in Weimar Germany that emphasized the functionality and efficiency of design alongside its material properties. Prominent teachers include Josef Albers, Walter Gropius, Wassily Kandinsky, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Paul Klee.
Color Field Painting
Color Field Painting
A tendency within Abstract Expressionism, distinct from gestural abstraction, color field painting was developed by Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still in the late 1940s, and developed further by Helen Frankenthaler and others. It is characterized by large fields of color and an absence of any figurative motifs, and often expresses a yearning for transcendence and the infinite.
Conceptual Art
Conceptual Art
The practice of Conceptual art became popular after the 1960s and presented people with an idea about art, which was more significant than the completion of a tangible and traditional work of 'art'. The aim was to create a concept that obliged people to consider the nature of art itself, and decide for themselves whether what was present was a work of art.
Contructivism was a movement that emerged in Revolutionary Russia among such artists as Vladimir Tatlin, Aleksander Rodchenko, Antoine Pevsner, and Naum Gabo. Celebrating 'art as machine,' it emphasized space, construction, and industrial materials.
Cubism was first developed by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque between 1907-1911. Its classic phase has two stages: 'Analytic', in which forms seem to be 'analyzed' and fragmented; and 'Synthetic', in which foreign materials such as newspaper and wood veneer are collaged to the surface of the canvas. The style attracted many adherents, both in Paris and abroad, and it would later influence the Abstract Expressionists, particularly Willem de Kooning.
Dada emerged in the early twentieth century as a literary and artistic movement that celebrated random chance, readymade artworks, and outragous performances. Its practitioners, including Hugo Ball, Tristan Tzara, and Marcel Duchamp, scorned bourgeois conventions of high culture, especially the appreciation for artistic intention and skill.
De Stijl
De Stijl
Founded in the Netherlands in 1917, De Stijl was an avant-garde dedicated to isolating a single visual style that would be appropriate to all aspects of modern life, from art to design to architecture. Taking its name from a periodical, its most famous practitioners were Theo van Doesburg and Piet Mondrian, whose mature art employed geometric blocks of primary colors and vertical and horizontal lines.
Expressionism is a broad term for a host of movements in early twentieth-century Germany, from Die Br�cke (1905) and Der Blaue Reiter (1911) to the early Neue Sachlichkeit painters in the 20s and 30s. Many German Expressionists used vivid colors and abstracted forms to create spiritually or psychologically intense works, while others focused on depictions of war, alienation, and the modern city.
Fauvism was an early twentieth-century art movement founded by Henri Matisse and Andr� Derain. Labeled "les fauves" or "wild beasts" by critic Louis Vauxcelles, the artists favored vibrant colors and winding gestural strokes across the canvas.
Feminist Art
Feminist Art
Feminist art emerged in the 1960s and '70s to explore questions of sex, power, the body, and the ways in which gender categories structure how we see and understand the world. Developing at the same time as many new media strategies, feminist art frequently involves text, installation, and performance elements.
Fluxus was an international network of "intermedia" artists of the 1960s who worked in fields ranging from music to performance to the visual arts. Taking their name from the Latin "to flow," Fluxus artists adopted an often anarchic and satirical approach to conventional forms of art, and their ideas paved the way for Conceptual art.
Futurism developed in interwar Italy as an ideology that celebrated the speed, movement, machinery, and violence of modern times. Blending realism with collage and Cubist abstraction, its visual components include lines of force and dynamism to indicate objects moving through space.
The term "happening" was coined by artist Allan Kaprow in 1957 to decribe a series of multi-media artworks on display in a single locale. In general, a happening is an art event, often staged or pre-scripted, that requires active participation from an audience to come to full fruition. This relatively new form of artistic media could be called participatory.
Hard-Edge Painting
Hard-Edge Painting
Hard-edge painting, emerging in the 1950s and 60s, departs from the gesture and scrawl of Abstract Expressionism to favor blocks of color with well-defined edges.
Impressionism emerged in the mid-nineteent century in opposition to the finished style of academic painting. It often depicted scenes of daily life, and used painterly strokes and shifting color areas to capture the effects of light and atmosphere.
Kinetic Art
Kinetic Art
Kinetic art is usually a sculptural construction comprised of moving components, powered by wind, a motor or the viewers themselves. Its kinesis is what gives the artwork its overall effect, hence the name. The first artwork generally credited as Kinetic Art was Marcel Duchamp's Bicycle Wheel (1913). Some of the medium's most famous practitioners include Alexander Calder, Naum Gabo and Jean Tingeuly.
Les Nabis
Les Nabis
Les Nabis were a group of Post-Impressionist artists in 1890s Paris including Maurice Denis, Pierre Bonnard, and Edouard Vuillard. They combined Impressionist brushstrokes with vivid colors, an at-times mystical or symbolic subject matter, and an interest in patterned and repeating backgrounds.
Minimalism emerged in the 1960s in response to the gestural and autographic excesses of Abstract Expressionism. Its early practitioners constructed huge geometric objects, serial structures, and simplified gridded planes.
Neo-Dada refers to works of art from the 1950s that employ popular imagery and modern materials, often resulting in a subtle commentary on the contemporary world. Neo-Dada is both a continuation of the earlier Dada movement and an important precursor to Pop art. Some important Neo-Dada artists include Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns, Robert Morris and Allan Kaprow.
Neo-Expressionism began as a movement in German art in the early 1960s with the emergence of Georg Baselitz. It gained momentum in the 1970s, with the addition of painters such as Anselm Kiefer, Markus L??tz and Eugen Sch??eck. Drawing inspiration from German Expressionism, many of its practitioners focussed on the country's troubled modern history. In the 1980s, it inspired many successful painters across the world, including Julian Schnabel.
Op Art
Op Art
Op art, short for Optical art, is a style of abstraction that relies on geometric shapes, lines, and color juxtapositions to create optical illusions for the viewer. Gaining popularity in the 1960s, such art often features patterns, grids, and effects like curving or diminishing objects.
Performance Art
Performance Art
Performance art is a modern form of art that emphasizes the experiential and the relationship between performer and audience. It developed in the 1960s with such artists as Yves Klein, Joseph Beuys, Marina Abramovic and Allan Kaprow. Not to be confused with the performing arts (dance, theater and music), Performance art is closely related to Conceptual art, in which any inherent meaning is in the eye of the beholder.
Photorealism is a post-AbEx style of painting that was developed by such artists as Chuck Close, Audrey Flack and Richard Estes. Photorealists apply painting techniques to literally mimic the effects of photography and thus blur the line that have typically divided the two mediums.
Pop Art
Pop Art
Pop art was a movement that developed in 1950s America in response to Abstract Expressionism's emphasis on formal qualities and inner expression. Artists like Jasper Johns, Robert Rauschenberg, Andy Warhol, and Roy Lichtenstein tried to subvert the artist's hand through techniques like serial printing, everyday materials, and pop culture imagery.
Post-Impressioism refers to a host of artists and styles that emerged after Impressionism in the late nineteenth century. Although diverse in style, they tend to share an emphasis on intense, sometimes arbitrary, colors, expressive forms, and painterly brushstrokes.
Post-minimalism in the visual arts refers to works created in the late-20th century that share the formalist or "pure" qualities of older Minimalist works. Unlike Minimalism, Post-minimalism does not always rely on formalist or linear aesthetics, and is often placed in public settings. Some of the movement's artists include Anish Kapoor, Damien Hirst and Eva Hesse.
Post-Painterly Abstraction
Post-Painterly Abstraction
Post-Painterly Abstraction was a term developed by critic Clement Greenberg in 1964 to describe a diverse range of abstract painters who rejected the gestural styles of the Abstract Expressionists and favored instead what he called "openness or clarity." Painters as different as Ellsworth Kelly and Helen Frankenthaler were described by the term. Some employed geometric form, others veils of stained color.
Suprematism was founded by Russian artist Kazimir Malevich in 1915. Using geometric shapes--as simple as a black square on a white ground or as complex as myriad bars, trapezoids, and circles arranged in space--Suprematism sought to convey the fundamental and transcendent properties of art.
Perhaps the most influential avant-garde movement of the century, Surrealism was founded in Paris in 1924 by a small group of writers and artists who sought to channel the unconscious as a means to unlock the power of the imagination. Much influenced by Freud, they believed that the conscious mind repressed the power of the imagination. Influenced also by Marx, they hoped that the psyche had the power to reveal the contradictions in the everyday world and spur on revolution.
Symbolism is an artistic and literary movement that first emerged in France in the 1880s. In the visual arts it is often considered part of Post-Impressionism. It is characterized by an emphasis on the mystical, romantic and expressive, and often by the use of symbolic figures.

Rio de Janeiro : Michelin's recommendations
Presided over by the Cristo Redentor, or Christ the Redeemer, Rio de Janeiro is a mix of crazy urbanism, long, fine sandy beaches and green hills; colonial architecture, ultra-modern buildings and wretched shacks; rich, bohemian and poor… This is a city of contrasts whose heart beats to the rhythm of the samba, football and wild nights, culminating in the famous carnival. Let the city's energy bewitch you, while bearing in mind that crime is a real affliction here.

Procedure: Meta-narrative review provides answers amenable to the biology and the psychology of this pervasive developmental disorder. Autistogenesis describes how genetic conformation orients the infant's neurological response to negative aspects of the epigenetic matrix, including abuse and social isolation, inappropriate or inadequate nutrition, hormonal influence, and the inflammatory response resulting from illness, insult, injury, or immunoexcitotoxicity.
Results: Chronic illness or insult up-regulates neurotoxic inflammation mediators. These processes result in an autotoxic cycle leading to further neurodegeneration and autistic changes are not restricted to olivary-cerebellar pathways. MRI studies indicate individuals on the autism spectrum with significantly reduced, disordered, and dysfunction Von Economo neurons within the frontoinsular cortex and anterior cingulate and extending through layer 6.The neuroinflammatory cascade may lead to diminishment of connections to and from the amygdala, septal nuclei, cingulate gyrus, hippocampus, and the neocortex as neurite formation and synapses per axon is reduced. These events extend to the mirror neuron system (MNS), which permeates the cerebral cortex, and is well-rooted in the ventral premotor cortex, the anterior, inferior fronto- and tempero-parietal regions, and the primary somatosensory cortex.
The MNS is intensely interconnected with limbic system, orbital frontal lobes, insula and each region experiences myelination at different rates during different periods of time. Deficits within the MNS represent a key neurological correlate to essentially abrogated social behaviors diagnostic of classical autism. MNS activates while witnessing another's actions, producing matching somatosensory experience, including proprioceptive feedback that is mapped onto the self. MNS is modulated by emotion and motivation, and provides the access to empathic experience of another's emotion and pain, while creating the means by which facial expressions and other communicative gestures are interpreted.
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) inhibits apoptosis induced by sphingosine, improves neuronal differentiation, stimulates neurite growth factors, and enhances phospholipid production required for neurite elongation. Counter to these positive effects, extreme oxidative stress produces reactive oxygen species capable of generating DHA peroxidation products that induce neuronal damage. This paper asserts that DHA supplementation, without added arachidonic acid (AA) during sensitive developmental stages, may also result in permanent aberrant neuronal hardwiring due to antiapoptotic neuroprotection. Thus, neuroprotection may inhibit apoptosis where neurite pruning is necessary for appropriate development.
The greater proportion of women in American and Canadian society consumes less DHA than the suggested 300 mg/day. Though fetal demand is high, evidenced by the preference for DHA over other LC-PUFAs in the basal membrane of the placenta, there is not concurrent increase in mothers' dietary selection for foods high in DHA concentration. Inadequate supply to the fetus may lead to irreversible neurological damage. Neurite outgrowth is suppressed by AA through the inhibition of ethanolamine glycerophospholipids, the induction of the inflammatory response cascade, and in concert with tumor necrosis factor.
Incorrect dietary ratios of DHA to AA may induce developmental abnormality characteristic of autism. Typical American diets result in reduced breast milk DHA compared with foreign equivalents, due to consumption of foods heavy in AA and its precursors, contributing to diminished DHA in the developing brain, hindering neurite outgrowth and reducing neuroprotection. Previous in vitro and in vivo studies suggest DHA/AA ratios in commercially prepared infant formulas are potentially toxic for normal brain development. At ratios of .56 or less, negative effects on health were detected in vivo, with critical levels for safety at a ratio of 1.8 in vitro. Since 2002, commercially prepared infant formula contains DHA to AA ratios of approximately .37 to .50, in attempt to replicate American women's breast milk, a DHA/AA ratio .74 lower than the top 10 countries for concentration of DHA/AA in breast milk worldwide.
Popular infant nutritional supplement drinks contain DHA without AA. Excess DHA without AA or adequate antioxidants induces apoptosis through a translocation of phosphatidylserine (PS), heightened bax and capase-3 activity subsequent to disruption of mitochondrial transmembrane potential, and activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) via the p38 signaling pathway. Chronic neuroinflammation leads to non-enzymatic oxidation of DHA which produces highly reactive neuroketals and results in generation of further toxic metabolites.
Pseudogenes, competitive endogenous RNA, and microRNA represent genomic and transcription level sources of dysfunction not examined in existing literature. Abnormal cytochrome P450 genes contribute to neuroinflammatory damage leading to behaviors of the autism spectrum. Postnatal gonadotropin and sex steroids surge by 3 months of age resulting in hormonal expression above pubertal levels. In males, the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis generates high serum androgens, though testosterone is a neurotoxin within the developing CNS. This author suggests P450arom on chromosome 15q21.2 aromatase represents a biomarker for autism as it converts testosterone to estradiol through similar mechanisms that convert excess DHA and AA by cytochromeP450 into feed-forward neurotoxic inflammatory metabolites.
Estradiol is a powerful neuroprotective agent, a modulator of oxytocin receptors known deficient in classical autism, and regulates conversion of precursors into neuroprotective DHA. A recent study indicates DHA administered to pre-term infants improves Bayley Mental Development (MDI) scores at 18 months corrected age in female infants only. The primary neuroprotective agent in males is estradiol as males do not produce DHA above dietary background. Estradiol is converted from neurologically cytotoxic testosterone by the P450arom enzyme, and establishes a developmental defense against inflammation mediated damage, a paramount function as neuronal DHA concentrations fall during the gonadotropin surge. Therefore, converging evidence indicates a system linking environment, gender, and both translation and transcription level genetic regulation.
Evolutionary biology must inform evolutionary psychology. A maturing infant brain susceptible to change due to stress provides a powerful selective advantage. Environmental stressors cannot induce gene-based adaptation in the same generation, so infant physiology provides adaptive processes targeted to sexually dimorphic males. A so-called bully assumes a dominance position in naturalistic settings, without genetic alteration, due to increased risking taking, less empathic connection to competitors, and the inclination to not play well with others. Diets heavy with meat diminishes DHA to AA ratios, promoting offspring more likely to take risks, hunt quarry capable of returning the fight, and less likely to empathize with closely related hominid prey. Much of the earliest Homo sapiens ancestry lived along the Tsitsikamma coast of South Africa, enjoying diets rich in DHA, while ostensibly antisocial Neanderthal roamed central Europe on diets heavy with red meat.
Conclusions: Different regions of the developing brain progress at different rates, resulting in differentially sensitive periods for each, and high stress may induce damage to those regions. Interconnectivity is nullified as cortisol and inflammatory metabolites degrade fledgling connections as plasticity myelinates aberrant connections. DHA inhibits apoptosis, enhances neuronal differentiation, stimulates neurite growth factors, and up-regulates phospholipids necessary for neurite elongation. Excess DHA is transformed into toxic metabolites through peroxidation during extreme stress, and may inhibit apoptosis where neurite pruning is necessary for appropriate development.
American breast milk is typically lower in DHA compared with foreign equivalents, due to consumption of foods heavy in AA and its precursors, contributing to diminished DHA in the developing brain. Previous studies suggest DHA/AA ratios in commercially prepared infant formulas are potentially toxic for normal brain development. Chronic neuroinflammation may lead to non-enzymatic oxidation of excess DHA which produces highly reactive neuroketals and results in generation of further toxic metabolites.
Pseudogenes, competitive endogenous RNA, and microRNA represent genomic and transcription level sources of dysfunction. Abnormal cytochrome P450 genes contribute to neuroinflammatory damage leading to behaviors of the autism spectrum. This author suggests that the P450arom gene on chromosome 15q21.2 represents a biomarker for autism as its enzyme converts testosterone to estradiol. Estradiol is a powerful neuroprotective agent, a modulator of oxytocin receptors known deficient in classical autism, and regulates conversion of precursors into neuroprotective DHA.
The systems theory of autistogenesis adequately describes and predicts many mechanisms capable of inducing autism, yet the course may paradoxically grant selectively advantage in an inhospitable environment, as playing well with others is undesirable in a high stakes environment. Environmental stressors cannot induce gene-based adaptation in the same generation, so evolution provides infant physiology with adaptive processes targeted primarily to sexually dimorphic males, yet damage to any aspect of this powerful system leads to catastrophic consequences. Therefore, this systems theory explains the ontogeny and phylogeny of classical autism.

Relational Database Sales Slide
Relational Database Sales Slide
Lisa Vaas
Posted 2003-05-21
As spending on relational databases slid nearly 7 percent, Oracle lost its grip on the market to IBM.
Spending on relational databases slid 6.9 percent, from a total of $7.1 billion in 2001 down to $6.6 billion in 2002, according to a report released Wednesday by Gartner Inc. At 36.2 percent, IBM had the biggest share of new-license revenue for the worldwide RDBMS (relational database management systems) market. Oracle Corp. pulled in second, with 33.8 percent of new-license revenue. According to Gartner, IBMs growth can be attributed to a surge in popularity for DB2 for the zSeries. That growth spurt helped counteract Big Blues bellyflop with DB2 for the iSeries, which experienced a double-digit decline.
This is the first time IBM has overtaken goliath Oracle in the category of relational databases. Oracles grip on the market loosened from a 2001 share of 39.7 percent down to 33.9 percent in 2002. IBM grabbed those 2 percentage points and then some, rising to 36.2 percent from 34 percent in that time.
But Oracle still holds the reins when it comes to the RDBMS market on the distributed platforms of Unix and Windows server. Oracle has 43 percent of that market, compared with IBMs 24 percent. Microsoft Corp. at No. 3 is the precocious child in the distributed database market, experiencing 17 percent growth from 2001 to 2002. Gartner attributed Microsofts gains to the fact that SQL Server appeals to cash-strapped enterprises and has benefited from improved scalability.

Nice thick heavy toughened glass. |
