Les 25 meilleures manières des #professeurs pour utiliser #Twitter en cours.
marissa goldberg's curator insight, November 24, 2014 1:11 PM
*Social media*
Some teachers might think that twitter is the last tool that they would use in their classroom, but dailygenius.com is looking to change the mind of educators everywhere and show that twitter can be a true educational resource. In "25 top ways teachers use Twitter in the classroom" author Jeff Dunn presents his infographic that teaches progressive learning from this microblogging site.
I am going to go over a few of his ideas and why I think they could be useful in day to day teaching. The very first item on the list is "monitor relevant hashtags" This can be extremely educational as modern news has been known to break on twitter. Even president Obama has used twitter's trending topics feature to tweet updates from the white house. Not only can the kids learn about what is going on in the world but they can see it happening in real time because twitter updates every second. Dunn also wants kids to use hashtags for project based learning which is relevant because these days kids get their research from social media, they can get quotes from industry professionals as well as ask questions to those who may have answers for their project. It makes communication seamless.
English teachers can use twitter by making a fake account for a literary figure for example: @EdgarAllanPoe can use twitter to talk about his life and his poetry which creates a relatable resource for children to learn.
Even on days off or snow days teachers can have remote conversations with their students through a class twitter account. This instant communication allows students to connect with their peers and with the teacher from anywhere in the world.
From a marketers perspective this generates traffic for twitter as well as brands who want to promote on twitter. Using social media as an education tool expands the use of your brand (twitter) and keeps you relevant in today's constantly updating and changing world.

People try to define everything by science. While I am not saying that everything can be defined by science, we must acknowledge that science has a large place in the world we know today. My future career plans involve a slightly untested field of science (Behavioral Science) combined with a well known a well practiced science (Psychology). We cannot define everything by science, but that doesn't mean we can't try.

#avancee e a revolucao em aprendizagem que é ignorada por aqui.
21 praticas que todo educador do seculo XXI deveria fazer para manter a sanidade mental :D
Fato é, que algumas praticas, como encorajar a democracia na sala de aula por meio da discussão moderada, são milenares e ainda muito dificil de serem adotadas com uma comunicacao nao violenta em diversos aspectos.
Quiçá as recomendações sobre video, posts, fotos, etc...
Sei que alguns educadores tem se empenhado para traduzir as angustias da geracao do seculo XXI, mas o movimento ainda é timido e mereceria ganhar um apoio publico.

|Troy Tulowitzki will miss 4-6 weeks with a broken rib.
For the better part of three months, Rockies fans have been thinking that something has to give. This was a team that struggled to beat the worst teams a year ago. They would routinely find new ways to lose in 2012, and they showed no signs of life.
It was baffling to Rockies fans when they made very few moves in the offseason, with the exception of having Walt Weiss fill the vacant managerial role that was left when Jim Tracy resigned, with very little persuasion from the front office to reconsider.
As good as it was early on for the Rockies, the feeling was always in the back of fans minds that the good start the team had enjoyed was a mirage. After struggling through the desert of despair for the majority of two seasons, it looked like there was a savory river to drink from, one that was oh so close. Instead, the reality that the river was a mirage set in on Thursday, and it came in the form of a swift kick to the gut.
Troy Tulowitzki, who has already gained a reputation for being fragile, came up gingerly after diving for an Ian Desmond ground ball up the middle in the 8th inning. Any time Tulo dives, stretches or exerts himself in any way, fans have become accustomed to cringing until they see that he is healthy.
The worst nightmare, that frankly has been so highly anticipated, became a reality on Thursday afternoon. The soreness Tulo felt after diving wasn't anything minor. The shortstop had broken a rib, which will land him on the disabled list, a spot he has become very familiar with.
Initial reports say that he will be out for 4-6 weeks, but that number can be adjusted depending on how his healing progresses. The injury de-rails a season that had Tulo as the early favorite in the National League to win the MVP award.
The dreams of an MVP are most likely over. However, more importantly to the Rockies, the dreams of sneaking back into the playoffs are even more likely over. The injury couldn't have come at a worse time. With three games left at Coors Field, the Rockies will then head on the road for 19 of their final 26 games before the All-Star break. The injury to Tulo, who drives the Rockies offense on the road, is one that could end the hopes of a postseason.
Even worse, normally the weight of the team would be transferred onto Carlos Gonzalez's back. Well, if things couldn't be worse, Gonzalez was removed from the game on Thursday before his first at-bat because a Jordan Pacheco foul ball caught him on the leg while he was standing in the on-deck circle in the 1st inning.
The fluke injury doesn't look to be something that is extremely serious, but the bruise on CarGo's lower leg should keep him out of the lineup for a day or two.
Ok, fine, no CarGo either. Well, the Rockies have been fortunate enough to see Dexter Fowler emerge into a very valuable member of the lineup. He could certainly take on more of the load, right? Think again. After getting hit by a pitch on the hand in the 4th inning, Fowler left the game with swelling in his fingers.
The reality is, this team is significantly different without Tulowitzki in the lineup. Take a look at June through September of 2012 and that is very evident. However, over the next few days, when CarGo and Fowler will either be unavailable or less than 100 percent, the Rockies are in trouble.
Instead of attack mode, the injury to Tulowitzki in particular changes the mindset of the team. Instead of going out and trying to gain ground in a National League West race that is up for grabs, the Rockies instantly shift into hold-on mode. For the next month, at least, the Rockies are going to have to figure out how to scratch and claw as many wins as they can. Instead of depending on Tulowitzki, who was hitting a robust .347 with 51 RBIs before the injury, the Rockies are going to have to lean heavily on Michael Cuddyer and Wilin Rosario. Both of those guys are capable, but they are a significant downgrade to who Tulowitzki has been over the course of his career, but specifically who he has been in 2013.
Is the dream over for the Rockies? That question remains to be seen. Crazy things happen in baseball. There easily could be someone who comes up from the minor leagues who is determined to prove that it is about time they got their chance and that they belong in the big leagues. Josh Rutledge, the likely call-up to replace Tulowitzki, certainly must feel like he has something to prove. If his bat is ready to go, the Rockies could stick around in the race.
The only problem is that the reason the Rockies have been in the race as long as they have been is because their starting pitching has so far outperformed expectations that it has to be wondered if they can sustain their pace. With the offense mostly pulling their weight, it gave the pitchers some flexibility. If the offense doesn't have the same firepower, the pressure goes back onto the starting pitchers, and the house of cards could quickly collapse.
The Rockies still have hope, but it is currently a flickering Christmas light at the end of a long, dark tunnel. Tulowitzki is one of the best five players in the game. Losing him for an extended period of time does not bode well for the team as a whole. Only three games over .500, the Rockies don't have any margin for error. They need to play better than they have been all season long, and without Tulo in the lineup, that is a scary proposition.
Crazier things have happened in baseball, but at this point, Rockies nation is in a state of mourning. This adversity is greater than any adversity the Rockies have faced all season long. If they can overcome this and still be within striking distance in the NL West, they are officially over the hump and can be considered a good team.
If the Rockies overcome the injury to Tulo and stick around in the race, Walt Weiss should be the unanimous winner of the Manager of the Year award.
Things don't look good for Rockies fans. It turns out that the great start to the 2013 season was indeed a mirage. The river of hope that they saw faded away when Tulowitzki gripped his right ribs. Without Tulo, the Rockies stand little chance to continue the run they have been on.

I'm living in old apartment and my roommate has fed electric cords through heating vent from living room into bathroom. I see this as a double hazard and illegal. The heating vent exits on wall behind toilet, about 3 inches off floor. He installed power bar on side of sink. He says it is safe because of power bar and the cords behind toilet will not cause fire because of the heat in vent will dry any condensation that might cause electric fire. But wouldn't using an active vent be dangerous, as well as being near water? I know very little about any of this but, doubt any amount of safety or grounding will make this safe. Would anyone know how to make this situation safer? Or give me some peace of mind so I can sleep. Thank you everyone very much for responses. This roommate is a contractor and is educated through college for home renovations. I cannot convince him to remove and will move out soon. I was told I was overreacting and do not understand how it works...so I appreciate the confirmation that it is dumb and dangerous.
Any electrical socket in a bathroom must have GFCI protection. You're damp, you touch something with a ground fault, feel a slight tickle and wake up wearing a halo and wings. Of all places to hack together power supplies, a bathroom is absolutely the worst place to do this. Mystical theories about the heater protecting the strip from dampness don't remove the shock hazard.
Fire hazard is not your problem here
I don't know your location, but in the USA, it is strictly forbidden to run any electrical wiring through heating vents or any air handling plenum. The reason for this is that you now have a combustible material in the plenum, that can spread a fire between rooms and into wall cavities. As previously mentioned, any AC electrical outlets in a bathroom MUST be GFIC protected. If you do not have electrical outlets with GFI protection in your bathroom, take it up with your landlord and ask that a safe source of electricity be installed. Meanwhile, get that extension cord/plug strip out of there.
Move out. You are not compatible and this will only be the first thing that gets between you. That guy is not going to change his behavior based on advice you got on the Internet. He probably drives with one hand, too.
It's not safe and not good practice to run anything through heat vents. Why can't he use the electricity in the bathroom?
You can reduce the risk of electric shock due to a ground fault (e.g. caused by moisture) using one of these GFCI plugs. Since it sounds like the extension cord starts in the living room, you would use it at the outlet there. It will protect anything downstream the same way a GFCI outlet would. However, this is not a fantastic solution and doesn't solve the issue of the HVAC vent.
Obviously the best solution is to remove the power strip and/or find another place to live.

John Wentworth and the Mammoth Lakes Trails and Public Access Foundation on Wednesday engaged the Town Council with a bit of political jawboning.
Wentworth, the president/CEO of the foundation, said if the council would commit $100,000 to the MLTPA right away, the foundation would in turn trim its request of the same amount in its application for Measure R funding.
"We don't want to lose our momentum," implored Wentworth. "This has been four years in the making. It's critical we find the resources and staffing. We're going to need all hands on deck."
In response, the council passed a resolution supporting the development and implementation of the Mammoth Lakes trail system and committing the resources necessary to coordinate and represent the interests of the town in regard to its component of the trail system. The council did not, however, commit the money.
There is a deadline of Oct. 8, however, Wentworth reminded the council. That's the date applications for Measure R funding cease for the current cycle.
Measure R was approved by Mammoth voters in the June 2009 election. It raised the local sales tax to provide money for recreation, parks, etc. in the town.
The foundation said the proposed annual cost to fully fund the trail system work will be $350,000 a year for two years. That money would be raised by Measure R or from the town's general fund, or a combination.
Wentworth, along with the director of public works, Ray Jarvis, said the foundation is eager for a council decision. "Now is not the time to be silly," he said.

In the Works: More Type 2 Insulin Pumps
It's no secret that type 2 diabetes is the biggest market for companies creating new D-devices.
But until recently, insulin pump manufacturers have focused almost solely on the type 1 population since we're the ones whose lives depend on taking insulin regularly, and many T2s who could benefit from insulin have nonetheless done their best to steer clear of it.
We actually know plenty of T2s who use traditional pumps or patch pumps already, but…

For the Birds
Birdwatching is one of the most popular hobbies in the United States. Whether it's observing who visits the birdfeeder outside the kitchen window, taking part in annual bird censuses, or traveling to see bird migrations and add a rare bird to a life list, millions of Americans are interested in the activity of these lively creatures.
The annual Christmas Bird Count, sponsored by the Audubon Society, is a census of birds in the Western Hemisphere, carried out by volunteers to collect population data for use in science, assessing the health of bird populations and designing conservation plans. The count has taken place for 109 years. Participation has grown from 27 in 1900 to more than 52,000 volunteer counters observing 65,000,000 birds in more than 2500 places today.
A group of volunteers in Tazewell, coordinated by Sarah Cromer, participates each year. The group covers a 15-mile area, with participants driving assigned routes counting and recording each species observed. The weather on the day of the count, January 3, was cloudy, which tends to limit bird activity but, in spite of that, the group saw a total of 55 species and counted 4,404 individuals. Lincolnshire Recreation Park has a nice walking trail along the lake, from which one group saw four great blue herons. An observer in Burke's Garden saw two American eagles.
The largest number of a single species was 1,835 for—guess what?—European starlings. Other numerous populations included 428 American crows, 361 Canada geese, and 359 house sparrows. Single birds counted included a killdeer, a loggerhead shrike, a northern harrier, a brown thrasher, a swamp sparrow, an eastern meadowlark, and a pine siskin.
The Great Backyard Bird Count, a joint project of Cornell Lab of Ornithology and Audubon for twelve years, takes place in mid-February. This year, 63,600 volunteers observed 619 species and a total of 11,550,200 individual birds.
This year, the count reflected a large invasion of pine siskins over much of the eastern United States. These feisty little birds moved southward because of seed crop failures in their usual wintering grounds in Canada and the boreal forests. GBBC participants reported 279,469 pine siskins on 18,528 checklists, compared to the previous high of 38,977 birds on 4,069 checklists in 2005.
Several people submitted checklists from Tazewell County, where the pine siskins were more numerous than in the January count. Watchers in Bandy, Burke's Garden, Cedar Bluff, North Tazewell, Richlands, and Tazewell reported seeing 3,221 birds, including 11 golden eagles in Burke's Garden, a bird watcher's paradise.
"I just love the way this event opens up a new world for so many people," says Cornell Lab of Ornithology Citizen Science Director Janis Dickinson. "We have grandparents counting with their grandchildren, elementary school classrooms doing the GBBC as a special project, nature centers taking visitors out on bird walks. And adults who never noticed birds before are suddenly smitten!"
For a more detailed summary of this year's results, visit the GBBC web site at www.birdcount.org. Explore 2009 data, compare with other years, and find the exact counts for each species in a particular state, province, or town.
Next year's count is scheduled for February 12-15, 2010. It would be an excellent learning opportunity for families and school classrooms to observe, report, and compare local results with others from the same community, county, region, and state, and to become aware of the impact of changing conditions on this vital part of the wild kingdom.
For a fascinating picture of the miracle of bird migration, read "Songbird Journeys: Four Seasons in the Lives of Migratory Birds" by Miyoko Chu. If you are not already a devoted watcher of these lovely creatures, you are bound to become one when you discover the lengths birds go to to fly nonstop across the Gulf of Mexico on the way to their spring and summer nesting grounds. Chu's very readable description of bird migration and the advances in technology that allow scientists to track flight lengths, patterns, and energy expended to accomplish migration brings Emily Dickinson's poem "Hope is the thing with feathers" into marvelous perspective!
Other books worth checking out include "Silence of the Songbirds" by Bridget Stutchbury, "Out of the Woods: a Bird Watcher's Year" by Ora E. Anderson, "Good Birders Don't Wear White: 50 Tips from North America's Top Birders", "Club George: The Diary of a Central Park Birdwatcher" by Bob Levy, "The Big Twitch: One Man, One Continent, A Race against Time: A True Story about Birdwatching: " by Sean Dooley, "To See Every Bird on Earth: A Father, A Son, and A Lifelong Obsession" by Dan Koeppel, and "Lost Woods: The Discovered Writing of Rachel Carson".
In 1934, Roger Tory Peterson inspired a growing popular interest in birdwatching with his field "Guide to the Birds". "All Things Reconsidered: My Birding Adventures", a collection of his columns from Bird Watcher's Digest, is bound to inspire interest in observing birds. This is the perfect time of year to be on the lookout for birds returning to their northern nesting grounds. For these and more books about birds, visit the Library in person, or online at www.tcplweb.org, or call 988.2541.

The wireless carrier and gaming retailer team up to double Cricket's brick-and-mortar presence.
A special Legend of Zelda edition of Monopoly will be landing 15 September, with retailer-exclusive collectibles.
Following report that retail chain plans to fund exclusive game content for customers, GameStop's chief says it's not going to meddle with developers' creative process.
You won't want to dawdle. The sale cuts the price of Xbox One accessories and games but is good only Friday and Saturday.
The company plans to open between 300 to 400 stores in the next year that will sell Apple products and mobile devices.
CEO J. Paul Raines says the main hurdle for the virtual reality headsets will be the price of the device.
Those looking to pick up a next-gen console before the holidays can try the game retailer starting Friday.
Paul Raines also believes there will be supply shortages of the new PlayStation 4 and Xbox One when the products are released next month.
Walmart will start accepting video game trade-ins from its customers on March 26 at 3,100 stores across the US.
After yesterday's price cut, Microsoft's Xbox One console has got even cheaper again, this time at retailer Gamestop.

McMinnville duplex fired upon
Multiple gunshots ring out
Dec 2, 2013
News-Register Staff
Multiple gunshots were fired at a McMinnville duplex early this morning, according to McMinnville police. No one was struck by any of the rounds.
Capt. Dennis Marks identified the primary target as 1612 S.W. Shirley Ann Drive. It was occupied when the incident was reported shortly after midnight.
Marks said more than 10 rounds were fired from a small caliber weapon. There were bullet entries into the west side of the residence and in the front door.
Some rounds penetrated both the exterior siding and interior drywall and traveled into the interior of the residence. Several items inside the residence were damaged.
Seven people were reportedly in the residence at the time of the shooting. It was a mix of adults and children. One adult and two children were sleeping in a room that two bullets penetrated.
Marks said police have very little suspect information, and it's not known if one or more individuals were involved. It's also not known if whoever is responsible was on foot or in a veicle when the shots were fired.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Detective Bill Christensen at 503-435-3495.

I think Card's biggest mistake was Children of the Mind. I found most of it to be unnecessary, and, despite his claims, I think he could have cut down about half of it and squeezed it into Xenocide to make that book equal in quality to the first two books. But that isn't to say that Xenocide isn't a good book. I think it's a great book, actually -- it's only lessened by the standards set by its elder brethren. A lot of people find it boring and philosophically heavy, or don't like the questionably scientific portions, but those are the aspects of SFF I enjoy most: the speculation, the ideas, the thematic considerations.
I greatly respect Card for not writing a series of Ender's Games. After writing what now remains one of SF's most widely read book, he realized he had to remake himself or just doom himself to quit. Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, and Xenocide are all completely different books, and in being so, make the series that much better.
As for the Shadow series, I don't intend to get into it. I read the first book, and, while it is interesting to any fan of Ender's Game, it is ultimately unnecessary. I realize the following books go in totally different directions, but, judging from many reviews and my own bad experiences with some of Card's other series, there are other authors out there worth reading.

I'd recommend the Speaker for the Dead trilogy higher than the Shadow series. Here's why:
I'm a traditionalist. It's a personal preference thing, but I'm much more interested in the social intricacies of post-war fiction - fiction that was born in the shadow of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that talk about the characteristics of being human and interacting personally with other humans, rather than the complicated plottings of global politics. I enjoy stories that take place in the future, but are set in the 1950's - mid 1980's; stories about the lunar landing, and the United Soviet States of Russia, and the Vietnam War, and the Holocaust. These are stories about the achievements of humans and civilization, driving along the road of industry. Ultimately, these stories are meant to shake the ideas of technology and its power to change humanity.
That is why I liked the Speaker for the Dead. I loved the characters, and cared more about the relationships between them I did about the "wow cool a new planet and extra-terrestrial colonies three thousand years in the future omg I love it so much because there's a new planet and extra-terrestrial colonies three thousand years in the future".
**stories that focus too much on technology and the feats of human kind include anything by Asimov and Starship Troopers, in case anyone is really interested**
Orson Scott Card is my very favourite writer because he does character so well. I'm a big person for character. A book isn't good if I can't understand the characters, or can't imagine them in front of me. Ender gets under your skin, and so does Bean. Ender's Shadow is a good read, but further than that, it becomes too much about global politics.
Personally, I think those books were based on evil dream Card had one night of taking over the world, and when he woke up he jotted it down on the closest piece of paper he could find with his wife's lipstick and eyeliner pencils.
Speaker For The Dead and Xenocide really capture Ender clearly, and you see him grow up. I never cared much for Bean - he was too hollow. I felt more sympathy and empathy than affection for him.
However, I wouldn't recommend Speaker For The Dead if you read on your breaks. It's not one of those books that easy to put down and remember the subplots four hours later.

Listener Supported Public Media from Fordham University
A world traveler, Corny O'Connell is always seeking new discoveries. As a WFUV DJ, he is constantly making them.
Though his dulcet tones rarely betray his excitement, Corny is as thrilled by hearing new, innovative artists for the first time as he is by visiting such far-flung locales as Machu Picchu and Macao. "I'm a sucker for female vocalists such as Patty Griffin, Lucinda Williams and Norah Jones," he confesses. "The best part of my job is sharing this music with an audience that I know is open to it." While he can't pack up every WFUV member in his luggage and take them along on his trips, he can take them on his musical journeys.
After years of hosting the evening music mix, in 2012 Corny took over the anchor chair hosting WFUV's morning show, weekdays from 6-10am.
"Hosting the morning show is a nice change of pace and it's fun to make friends with the morning listeners," he says.
Corny obviously relishes unconventionality and the freedom to explore. He says WFUV stands out on the dial because "it's adventurous, independent, intelligent, personable and fun."
If he sounds like a cheerleader for WFUV, that's only fitting: in addition to his hosting duties, Corny also produces the station's membership drives. And he can be persuasive. After all, he learned the art of the argument at Fordham Law School before being sidetracked by a career in radio, thanks to his days as a student engineer and DJ at the station. His fundraising motto is: "Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated."
Joking aside, Corny takes his job seriously, making sure to stay on top of the latest releases and to constantly educate himself and his listeners. "As a public station playing lesser-known artists, it's important to provide some perspective along with the music," he posits. "And I love working at a station that allows the hosts that freedom."
Corny grew up in Westchester, and now lives in Manhattan with his wife, Amy, and their son, Leo.
What are two or three things we might find you doing away from the station? I like naps, crossword puzzles, bike riding, chocolate chip cookies, and poker.
What would WFUV listeners be surprised to know about you? This is the one question that consumes the bulk of my waking hours. Would they be more shocked to learn the sordid things I've done for love or those I've done for money?
Name a song that defines you. That would have to be a mash-up of Theme from "Shaft" and "I Feel Pretty" from West Side Story.
What would you have become if you didn't have a career in radio? I would have become a writer for Saturday Night Live, then I would have developed a drug habit, gone through a series of shallow relationships, and wound up destitute in the Canary Islands.
What wacky thing would you do if you had the time (or guts)? I would develop a drug habit, go through a series of shallow relationships, and wind up destitute in the Canary Islands.

Phoronix: Linux 3.1 To Linux 3.8 Radeon DRM Benchmarks
After recently carrying out legacy Radeon benchmarks comparing Mesa/Gallium3D versions from an ATI Radeon X1800XT (R520) graphics card, up today is a vintage Linux kernel DRM comparison. For seeing if modern Linux kernels are still influencing the performance of this vintage ATI Radeon graphics card, here are benchmarks comparing the modern Linux 3.1 to 3.8 releases.
well that's discouraging...
If you still use a card this old then you do not play games where further driver improvements will help you.
Michael Larabel
I stop playing HON with the catalyst because the input lag if i try to drop a item was so high no one can play a advance bottle master support with that kind of shit driver.
But you are not a gamer you don't have any clue what gamers really need.
It just doesnt matter if your driver do 60fps or 400fps its more important do have a constant reaction time.
thats the problem of crossfire if you do have 4 cards your reaction lag time of mouse and key-port input is so high your 10000fps are just pointless.
But hey you are the "Professional" who cares about the truth's anyway the FPS is higher go catalyst go! LOL!
This is one thing that I really appreciate with the open source drivers vs the closed source drivers....closed source drivers are millions of lines code due to per-generation-optimizations. I cant even begin to image what its like to debug the thing...
open source drivers are more "general, over all optimzations" and more debuggable. The difference is... Radeon gives less total performance, but more consistent performance. (Input lag came to mind, or lack there-of, which the user above covered) Which you just don't get with Catalyst it seems.
I guess it's fine to confirm that's happening, and at least there haven't been any regressions. But these results are expected.

Desigualdades sociales: Una barrera para ejercer el derecho a la salud
Las Américas: Una Región de Extremos. Presentación de la Directora de la OPS en el Instituto Nacional de Salud (NIH), durante la Serie de Seminarios sobre Disparidades de Salud, donde presenta las desigualdades sociales más apremiantes en la Región como una barrera para ejercer el derecho a salud. [ En Inglés].
Y el rol de la OPS para enfrentar algunas de estas inequidades de salud haciéndolas más visibles, avanzando más allá de los promedios nacionales, fortalecimiendo los sistemas de información sanitaria y empoderando a los más desfavorecidos.
Paho Director Presentation- The Americas: A Region of Extremes. Social Inequalities: A Barrier to Exercising the Right to Health (13.65 MB)
Washington DC. 16 september 2010.
Poor and deteriorating health, along with premature death, are the result of inequality in a society.
In the Americas, the poorest and most vulnerable populations get sick or die because of their lack of access to health promotion and disease prevention, as well as health services and health care that meet their needs.
In every country in the Region, studies with a breakdown by socioeconomic level, ethnicity, sex, age, and geographic location show that discrimination and exclusion are practiced at different levels and that the exercise of rights, especially the right to health, must be expanded if better outcomes, as measured by universally accepted indicators, are to be obtained.
Dr. Roses discussed strategies to improve:
a) health status of the most vulnerable populations, and
b) health information, including the importance of data in monitoring progress and guiding decision-making on interventions that would result in better health.
During her presentation, PAHO Director also highlights the need for improved access to health promotion, disease prevention, health services and health care. PAHO works to develop basic health infrastructure, improve education, and promote gender equality.
As for social policy and intersectoral activities, it is imperative to emphasize those related to the development of basic infrastructure, such as sanitation and access to good-quality water; a good level of schooling for the entire population (especially women); strategies to guarantee a living wage for the poor population, especially women; and the promotion of gender equality, ethnic equity, and intercultural approaches.
Furthermore, in addition to the efforts to improve the health status of the population, specific emphasis and support are needed to improve health information. Without consistent, valid, and timely data and indicators, it is difficult to monitor regional, national, and local progress to guide decision-making on resource allocation and choose interventions that will result in better health.
One alternative is the good use of estimates, whose limitation is that they do not reflect the situation in every country. There is an urgent need in our Region to promote the critical validation of information, develop suitable methodologies, and upgrade the existing technical capacity and structures to generate information on births and deaths and also to strengthen administrative registries, which are key components of PAHO's Regional Plan of Action for Strengthening Vital and Health Statistics.

Interlaken's Intermingle
Another fantastic turn-out for our "Meet and Greet" - newly named "Intermingle" - this evening from 5pm to 6pm! So many Guests and local business owners came over to our Executive Lounge for some Frozen Strawberry Margaritas and an assortment of hdo's. The hot topic among most was the 100th anniversary of the Aston Martin and the many events at Lime Rock Track this week. I met a wonderful family from Vancouver British Columbia visiting us for the week while their sons are at camp at neighboring Hotchkiss School. Like me, they have fallen in love with this area and hope to frequent it more often, and are even considering purchasing a home on the lake. For their last full day with us I suggested that they and their 10 year old daughter do some zip lining at the Catamount Adventure Park and then head up for some ice cream in Great Barrington, MA, a great place to spend a few hours. Route 41 is such a beautiful ride and they sure would appreciate the area even more after that adventure. I am confident that we'll see them again at Interlaken!
I also had the pleasure of seeing Emily and Eric from Salisbury Garden Center. Emily is the Queen of our gardens here at Interlaken, so along with her crew they keep our grounds looking beautiful. I heard a few compliments about the gardens from our Guests so it was great to have Emily on hand to personally accept the accolades!
Please join us next week (hopefully at our pool if it isn't too humid) at 5pm for some intermingling - we all would love for the chance to meet you!
What's local
"Kale pretending to be Seaweed". How cute is that?
If you are a blog reader than you know I am a big fan of kale, so kale doesn't have to pretend to be anything but kale to be highly rated in my book! But in the appetizer dish of "Sashimi of King Salmon, White Soy, Lime Pickled Cucumber, Kale Pretending To Be Seaweed" kale can pretend to be seaweed at any time. This lovely Heirloom Red Russian variety comes straight to us from Chubby Bunny Farm in Falls Village, CT. This kale is also used in my most favorite appetizer in Morgan's and that is the Local Honeycrisp Apple and Heirloom Kale Salad, Pecorino Vinaigrette, Black Olive Crunch. If you need a reminder of how good kale is for you, please look back at my blog from June 1st!
What's new
Welcome into our Atrium building in a new way! Previous to this renovation there was one door that led into our Atrium building that is home to the Atrium wedding/conference room, ELLORA Spa and Sanctuary, fitness room, the gameroom and library. That is one small door for the entrance to alot of things! So, another door and foyer area was built on the right that leads you directly into the Atrium area. Wedding guests - this is your door! If you have services at ELLORA Spa or would like to just visit her gift shop then choose the door on the left. Here's our new look from start to finish!
National Flip Flop Day
Happy Flip Flop Day!
Happy summer and Happy longest day of the year! Although we've certainly had summer-like weather many days this year, summer is officially here and it is hot, so do come and stay with us so you can cool off by dipping your toes in our outdoor heated pool....
or flip your flops down to our private lakefront on Lake Wononscopomuc....
Bed, Bath and Beyond & Celebrity Chef, Fabio Viviani
Kristy Barto, Sales Manager at Interlaken, has some fun to share - take it away Kris!
Last Wednesday I had the pleasure of working with employees of one of my favorite stores to shop in, Bed, Bath and Beyond! We hosted the vendor showcase in our beautiful Garden Pavilion where products were featured from Dyson, Kitchen Aid, and Calphalon. The highlight of the vendor showcase was a demonstration presented by Chef Fabio Viviani using Bialetti Aeternum ceramic cookware. Not only was Chef Viviani engaging and humorous but this line of cookware which he endorses is incredible and it can only be found at Bed, Bath and Beyond! After the demonstration the group enjoyed our Backyard BBQ on the lawn and each received a sample of the Bialetti cookware.
After a morning of demonstrations, followed by lunch, the group divided up into teams and we facilitated Interlaken's Radical Race as their team building activity. All 80 people set off across our 30 acres for two hours of tasks such as a blind wine tasting, a culinary activity, the Helium Stick activity and of course the "Human Knot".
All in all it was another example of Interlaken's versatility and ability to suit many different corporate needs.
Meet 'n' Greet Lakeside!
I promise not to blog every week about our Meet 'n' Greet that happens every Wednesdsay from 5pm for our Guests as well as local businesses, but this week was super fun as we held it Lakeside! I mean, who doesn't want to stand next to sparkling water with a tasty cocktail and yummy hdo's in hand and meet other nice people? Another great turn-out, thank you!
Our peaceful stroll to the lakefront...
Our destination. So pretty!
Something else "so pretty" - fresh Watermelon Mojitos. And I mean fresh!
Thanks Wes!
Enjoy our manchego cheese or Rhode Island shrimp lettuce wraps.
Mingling inches from the water...
Remember, Guests, every Wednesday from 5pm to 6pm!
What's blooming
Blanketing the front of our main building is this beautiful perennial known as Astilbe. Available in many shades of pinks from very dark to very pale to lavender to a bright red as well as white, this fern-like foliage plant is a shade loving plant and is just thriving in our main building garden. Sit on your private balcony and enjoy the garden view!
Pet of the Week
Hi, my name is Basil, (Ch. Buonaire's Pesto.) I met my new Mom and Dad in December. They were happy to have me because they lost their beloved Airedale in August and I came to them because I heard they like to spoil their dogs. I love new things and I went with them to the Interlaken Inn in Lakeville, CT. The Interlaken was so happy to meet me. They welcomed me and my family with a sign in the lobby. Then Winston came out from behind the desk to meet me and everyone was gathering around me making a fuss. Hmm, I was a little overwhelmed, but every day everyone greeted me and I warmed up just fine.
My Mom showed me the ropes by walking around the beautiful grounds at the Interlaken and we looked at all of the beautiful flowers and wonderful sculptures by Denis Curtiss. She took lots of pictures. We went for so many long walks on the Harlem Valley Rail Trail where I saw a big hairy thing called an alpaca and I heard peacocks (whatever they are) but I did not see them. They took me for walks in Great Barrington and Salisbury and they kept coming out with bags and boxes. The even bought some things for me.
My Mom tried to get me to do something new. She put these funny shoes on and put a loooooong leash on me. She went into this big body of water called a lake and convinced me to follow her. I did not like it much so I "froze." Mom said I did great and said next time I would be more willing to do more, like maybe go up to my elbows. I got out and then we sat by the lake and watched a bunch of people from a school doing a team building exercise organized by the Interlaken Inn. That was a lot of fun. The humans did some funny things trying to make rafts that had to go into the lake and hold 2 people to row out to a canoe and then back. This looks like a great thing for team building. Maybe if my mom and I made a raft I would have liked the lake more!
My parents said something about how nice it was to see Brenda during the breakfast in the newly decorated breakfast room. Then every night they said how delicious the dinners were at Morgan's and how Eric and Brandon and Wes and everyone at Morgan's are wonderful. They loved these things called apple fritters and grilled asparagus and beets and Morgan burgers and strip steak and the chicken and the special little rolls..boy they made me hungry when they would come back from their meals and talk about their breakfast or dinner. They even made something special for my Mom and made her Birthday special.
This going on vacation with my parents was fun. And with all of the places to go to nearby and people to meet at the Inn it kept us busy. No naps during the day made me very tired and we had a very nice pet friendly room in Sunnyside. The Interlaken gave us really nice comfy beds and let me tell you...I slept like a puppy. I had my toys to play with and there was a fridge in the room and kept my food cold.
I can't wait for them to take me away to Interlaken again. I rate it 4 PAWS UP!
What's New!
Here's another series in the blog - "What's New"! This blog will be an easy one as there is always something new at Interlaken! This week it is invitation for our Manager's Cocktail party:
Dear Interlaken Guests,
You are cordially invited to attend our "Meet & Greet" every Wednesday from 5pm to 6pm at the Interlaken Inn. This week please join us in our restaurant, Morgan's, for some cocktails and hors d'oeuvres and meet the Interlaken staff as well as other Guests. Each week we'll choose a different location on property so by the end of the summer you'll have been around all of our 30 acres! See you then!
The Interlaken Staff
This week was a great turn-out! We were able to meet some local business members as well as some Interlaken Guests who loved talking about their Corvettes and racing at the Lime Rock Park. Wes served up some tasty Rhubarb Martinis and John passed around some hdo's, including duck terrine with cracked mustard and gherkins. Next week we plan to be Lakeside so be sure to save us an hour that afternoon. See you then!
What's Blooming
This is Cornus Florida - also known as Flowering Dogwood. It is a species of flowering plant in the family Cornaceae and is native to eastern North America. These deciduous trees can grow up to 33 feet high, and usually are wider than they are tall when they are mature. Our dogwood tree is certainly not 33 feet high, but one that cannot go unnoticed at our pool garden. It is gorgeous! If you were at the Inn last week you would have noticed an arrangement in our lobby that also had dogwood stems, and that sure made a statement as well. Before you take that refreshing dip in our outdoor heated pool take a moment to admire the flowering dogwood!

February is the month for chocolate. I can roll with that. I like chocolate as much as the next person. This year, however, I'm trying to think outside the heart-shaped box.
I'm lucky enough to work with some talented chefs and we put our heads together to come up with healthier ways to enjoy our beloved chocolate. Here's a recipe by Executive Chef Nick Weimer that uses cocoa, which delivers intense chocolate flavor without loads of fat and sugar.
Quinoa pudding with cocoa
1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa
1/4 cup assorted nuts
1/3 cup assorted dried fruit
1/2 cup assorted berries
2 tablespoons shredded, unsweetened coconut
1/3 cup plain or vanilla low-fat yogurt
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
Place ingredients in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
Now it's your turn. I'm challenging your creativity and culinary skills. Share your ideas and recipes for getting your chocolate fix in healthier ways.

The carbohydrate load on this one must be unbelievable!!! You'd need to eat a lot of protein and good fat to slow this one down!
Make it vegan with soy yoghurt!
My healthy cocoa food is as follows:
Heaping 1/2 cup good quality cocoa
32 ounce container low fat plain yogurt
1/4 tsp. Stevia powder
2 tsp. instant coffee granules
1 tsp. vanilla
Stir or whisk together.
I eat 1 cup of this over 1/2 cup mixed berries.
To purchase quinoa I would have to live somewhere other than the Northeast Georgia Mountains.
Dried fruits are higher in sugar.
My cardiologist tells me not to eat coconut.
Care to come up with a healthier way to eat chocolate?
If my problem was a Death Star, this atircle is a photon torpedo.
I have never thought that there could be a healthy way of preparing chocolate. As I know, chocolates are always not part of my diet solution. Hopefully, I may be able to try this while I am sticking to my dietary plan.
Chocolate is not only one of my favorite foods because of its delicious taste, but also because of its antioxidant properties. Natural Standard gives chocolate a C grade for providing good antioxidant supplementation. Although there are important benefits of chocolate, it's important to remember that this is only true when eaten in moderation. Natural Standard also gave chocolate a C grade in treating symptoms of hypertension and hyperlipidemia as well. Go to www.naturalstandard.com and see the unbiased evidence presented about this topic.
Could poor Mary Anne use white, perhaps lightly toasted bread crumbs for Quinoa, and having had a heart attack in the supermarket when I saw the price, could I perhaps use Couscous in lieu of Quinoa?
The recipe sounds delicious! What a great alternative to boring chocolates.
The recipe looks like it is delicious and I will try it. I usually make myself some hot chocolate when the craving strikes. I use 2 Tbsp cocoa (pure and dark), 1 Tbsp sugar, and 1 C Milk, I heat it in a pan (sometimes I heat the milk alone in the microwave). The ending is what makes this recipe work for me: I use a hand blender and blend it all so that its thick and bubbly. This way i get the chocolate craving fixed and the texture is good, too.
Sorry, but "YUCK". This is no substitute for a really good, rich chocolate dessert or just a piece of high cocoa bar. It doesn't satisfy the chocolate crave.
I too love chocolate but your recipes have few items I'm able to eat. A permanent partial bowel obstruction due to surgery & bleeding disorder requires low fiber & residue, forever. Tired of juices, yogurt, cheese, white bread, pudding, etc. Any recipes available for this problem?
Nice article, thanks.
Sue: Thanks for your question. This recipe makes four 1-cup servings. Each serving has 213 calories.
Are you able to provide the breakdown for this recipe as to the number of servings and calories per serving? Thank you.

The appearance of Virtuoso in 1974 transformed guitarist Joe Pass from a musician's musician to an international star. At a time when the unaccompanied format was almost exclusively the province of pianists, and many guitarists were leaning toward jazz/rock, this album set the standard for solo guitar while helping to renew interest in the instrument's pre-fusion tradition. It also left no doubts regarding the technique, imagination, and taste of Pass, whose deep harmonic knowledge, virtuosic speed, ability to sustain momentum while moving in and out of tempo, and elevated sense of form led many to compare his solo efforts to those of piano nonpareil Art Tatum. This music represents the foundation upon which the glory days of Pass's career were built.
