MSc in Sustainable Urban Development
The two-year MSc in Sustainable Urban Development will provide you with a rigorous and critical introduction to the policy and practice of sustainable urban development. The course exposes students to sustainable urbanism as both an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary subject at global and local scales.
Attention is paid to the intellectual history of sustainable urban development, its current and future applications and practice, and the contemporary relevance of research to sustainable urban policy and practice across cities of the Global North and South.
The programme attracts a lively and engaged group of students, who combine postgraduate study with their professional lives, and an active alumni network. Students on the course come from a wide international background and share a variety of work experiences in urban development and the built environment. The MSc is designed for those working in a range of urban contexts worldwide - public, private or third sector organisations - and fosters collaboration, creativity, perspective-sharing and effective networking skills. The programme runs in partnership with the Prince's Foundation for Building Community, and is an accredited course within the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors University Partnership.
The course is delivered by tutors from institutes and departments across the University of Oxford, and in collaboration with comprehensive range of commercial, governmental and non-government organisations specialising in sustainable urban development
Programme details
The course is delivered through a mix of tailored teaching and learning methods, including seminars, site visits, peer-review, research workshops and tutorials. Classes are seminar-based, encouraging active participation and enabling students to learn from each other. You will prepare for sessions by reading a selection of recommended books, book chapters and articles. Typically, there are six to eight weeks between each teaching week, during which time you should expect to spend an average of 15 hours per week of independent study.
You will be allocated a course supervisor who will support your academic development, and with whom you will meet during each teaching week for a tutorial. In the second year, you will be allocated a dissertation supervisor. Where dissertation supervision requires expertise that is not available among the core staff, an additional dissertation supervisor will be identified. You will also have a college advisor whom you may consult on issues concerning your personal wellbeing.
The course comprises four elements:
- core themes
- urban theory
- research methods
- the dissertation
You will attend eight intensive residential teaching weeks during the two years of study. Two of these eight teaching weeks are held at the offices of the Prince's Foundation for Building Community in London. The remaining six are held in Oxford at the Department for Continuing Education. Each module addresses a core theme of the course.
In the first year, you will study five interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary teaching weeks:
- Concepts of the City and Environmental Change
- Climate Change and the Built Environment
- Place-making and Urban Design
- Financing Sustainability
- Sustainable Transport
During teaching weeks, you will also follow foundation courses in urban theory and research methods tailored to sustainable urban development, comprising sessions on the intellectual history of sustainable urbanism, paradigm shifts and challenges in sustainable development, urban economics, research design, research ethics and preparation, bibliography and library resources.
In the second year, you will study three interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary teaching weeks:
- Urbanism, Community and City-Building
- Urbanisation in the Global South
- Leadership, Governance and Future Cities
You will spend the latter half of the second year working on a 15,000-word dissertation. You will choose the topic, with the guidance of your supervisor, and, in most cases, spend time doing fieldwork and gathering data during this period. More information can be found in the Course Handbook.

Course aims
The over-arching aim of the MSc in Sustainable Urban Development (MSUD) reflects that of the Framework for Higher Education Qualifications, namely to provide students with a systematic understanding of core areas and advanced topics in sustainable urban development, the ability to evaluate empirical or primary evidence critically, and the conceptual understanding to marshal and present arguments and solutions based on primary data, theory and/or the application of sound reasoning.
More specifically, the MSUD aims to provide students with:
- a rigorous and intellectually-demanding education in the field of sustainable urban development;
- a multidisciplinary structure that engages with world-leading research to the benefit of students' professional practice;
- an international understanding and knowledge of sustainable urban development;
- an engagement with the academic excellence of the University of Oxford and the practical and research experience of the PFBC.
Assessment methods
For each teaching week, you will complete an essay of up to 3,000 words on that theme. The first essay is formative and will provide you with valuable feedback at the start of your studies. The remaining seven essay assignments are summative.
You will also submit a research dissertation of up to 15,000 words. It is expected that you will define your own dissertation topic in consultation with your allocated supervisor. Training in research skills is built into the course delivery, in order to help you make the most of this opportunity.
IT requirements
This course uses the Department's online assignment submission system. In order to prepare and submit your course assignments you will need access to the Internet and a computer meeting our recommended minimum computer specification. Students of this course may use the student computing facilities provided in Departmental buildings.

Roxanne Ross says she was raised to believe every responsible citizen should own a gun.
When she picked out her own handgun last fall, Ross went old school and chose a .357 Magnum revolver, which she says is simply made and easy to clean. It also has just the right firepower to protect her in her Gresham home, says Ross, a 52-year-old empty-nester.
So when Multnomah County commissioners unanimously passed a gun-control ordinance April 25, Ross says she was dismayed to learn it was intended to apply within Gresham city limits, even though the Gresham City Council hadn't approved it.
"I think it's just terrible, the way they would all have us be sitting ducks," Ross says. "I want all the criminals to know that the county's ordinance does not apply to Gresham, Fairview, Troutdale or any of the cities."
Now, Ross is party to a tort claim filed by Portland lawyer Bruce McCain that contends county commissioners overstepped their bounds by including a clause stating that the gun-control law applies "countywide unless a city…enacts separate legislation on this same subject matter."
The legislation—co-sponsored by County Chairman Jeff Cogen and Commissioner Deborah Kafoury—was deliberately written to make Multnomah County's cities fall in line, Kafoury says.
"If they don't have anything on the books, I think they should," Kafoury says. "Most children who are killed by guns, the cause is a well-intentioned mom or dad who left their gun out, not shootings at Clackamas Town Center."
The county's gun-control ordinance mirrors one passed in Portland in 2010 after a spate of shootings. The ordinance makes it a crime to carry a loaded firearm in public, to fire a gun in Multnomah County, not to report a stolen firearm and not to keep guns locked near minors. It also establishes a tighter nighttime curfew for minors convicted of gun crimes.
The ordinance makes exceptions for law enforcement officers, those with concealed handgun licenses, hunting and a few other cases.
Kafoury says if a city has a law on the books about firing a gun within city limits, for example—as Gresham and Troutdale do—the city ordinance applies. But if a city has, say, no law about locking firearms and keeping them away from children—Gresham, Troutdale, Fairview, Wood Village and Maywood Park do not—the county's law takes effect.
That's creating some confusion for local jurisdictions. Gresham City Attorney David Ris says that since Gresham has laws pertaining to discharging firearms, the county has no authority over Gresham guns.
"We don't feel that the county ordinance applies within the city of Gresham," Ris says.
McCain, who filed the tort claim April 29, says he now plans to file an injunction and lawsuit to stop the county ordinance.
He says commissioners wrote the law to suggest their work is relevant to more than just the 24,000 residents of unincorporated Multnomah County.
"If the cities are included, about a quarter of a million people are affected," McCain says. "This was a political move by county commissioners to give the impression that their county law applies to all cities."
County spokesman David Austin says McCain is "flat-out wrong."
"There are many regulatory matters within incorporated cities where county rules apply," Austin says.
But Ross says she and other East Multnomah County residents are tired of having Portland-based politicians decide their fate.
"It doesn't apply in our city limits unless our city councilors choose to make it apply," Ross says. "To give the impression that it does, that's just unfair. The criminals, the rapists, they always know where the gun-free zones are.â

Historical Traveler Reviews Holiday Inn Express Philadelphia E - Penns Landing
Don't even think it!
Staying at this hotel for one night ruined what had been an enjoyable trip to PA. This hotel is exactly what you would expect from a one-star hotel.
This is your chance to experience the thrill of heavy freeway traffic buzzing by your window all night long - bring earplugs AND leave the fan on!
We checked into our room, left a few papers, closed the curtains but hadn't moved in our bags before we went out to dinner. When we returned, someone had been in our room, removed the papers, and opened the curtains. The hotel front desk didn't know anything about it.....
Great place to stay..
We stayed here last wkend and it was great! The hotel looks like four story house remade into a quaint hotel. When you first arrive you can either look for street parking or you can valet it for $18/day. We had a spotless corner room on the third floor overlooking Market Street. The room came with standard amenities. Complimentary breakfast was served in the downstairs restaurant btwn the hours of 7:30-10:30am. For those not familiar with Philly, the hotel is conveniently located in the heart of the Olde City district, close to all of the historical sites as well as trendy restaurants on the eastern part of the city. The staff was extremely polite and helpful in every way. We paid $148 (taxes included) which was well worth the price. We will most definitely stay here again.
Not very satisfied
I decided to say at the Comfort Inn 2/12/05. I booked my reservation under the Valentines day package. This package was to include parking a riverfront room, a bottle of champagne, and a box of chocolates. First of all check in took about 30 mins. I do not think this hotel is use to handling the number of guest they booked. Once we finally checked in I was a little dissapointed in the room. It was not very clean, and it smelled like mildew. We also did not have the bottle of Champagne or box of chocolates that were suppose to be included. We had to call the front desk to have someone bring it up. After getting settled in we went out for dinner, we returned around 8:30pm. At this time, all parking spots were taken ( they share the parking lot with Penn's Landing) We waited in the parking lot for 40 mins for a spot and finally we were told we could park anywhere (meaning make your own parking space) as long as we did not block any one in. Check out was a disater!!!! When we checked out of course the $17.25 they charge for parking was on the bill (the parking that was suppose to be included) When we asked about this we were told "Oh yeah you are right, you shouldn't be charged for this, give me a second to correct your bill" This second turned into 1 hour, during this time no one said anything to us, like please bare with us, please have a seat while we correct this, NOTHING. After about 50 mins we asked what was going on.. We were told "Oh we're having problems with our computer" The front desk clerks had nasty attitudes and move entirley too slow. After they finally fixed thier computer problems and removed the parking fee we had to walk all the way to the back to the parking lot with our luggage to our car, only to find out we had to go all the back to the front of the parking lot to give the attendant our pass before we could leave out the back of the parking lot....This place is badly in need of some type of direction..The only good thing about this hotel is the location.
Good choice
Rooms are fine and we slept very well. Our room was on the expressway-side but it was very quiet (though someone wrote that he/she was told that the noise was "excessive") and comfortable to sleep.
The walking distance to city centre is a little problem, but you can use the hotel shuttle van or take a cab.
We could stay again.
Comfort Inn has Bedbugs
Stayed in room 713 of the Phila Comfort Inn on Columbus Blvd on 10/30/04. Found bedbugs in my bed around 2am. Upon checkout, hotel GM stated that this room has been a repeat offender for bedbugs. However, when we called the following Monday for a full report of her examination of the room she stated that nothing was found. I can tell you ABSOLUTELY that what we found were indeed bedbugs. You don't want to mess around with them. I think the reason she found none on her review of the room was because they only appear at dark.
Comfort Inn Penn's Landing
Nothing fancy here, but this hotel is clean and reasonably priced. Staff seemed helpful. It's too bad the freeway separates the hotel from the historic district because "as the crow flies" its location would be ideal. However, if you are walking it turns out that circumventing the freeway adds a lot of stairs and distance to the trip. Still, on a pleasant day it wouldn't be a bad walk to Independence Square--pretty nasty in sun, heat & humidity though.
The free shuttle this hotel offers around the city is great, although expect to wait...and wait...and wait to be picked up sometimes. Also, it is unavailable in mid-afternoon. The continental breakfast is quite good here, although the breakfast room was mobbed at 8 AM on a weekday--very difficult to find a spot to sit. Pay the little bit extra for a riverview room so you don't just look at the freeway. We were treated to fireworks on the river on an August Wednesday night.
I think when we come back we may try to find a place closer to convention center, as that looked like a more ideal location. But when the price scares us away from that idea, we will probably come back to the Comfort Inn. If they could just pick it up and move it to the other side of the freeway, it would be the perfect hotel for a family visit to Philly.
We Enjoyed Our Stay Over the 4th of July
My husband and I wanted to go to Philly for the 4th of July; had never been there and thought it would be the ideal time to visit. We are not young folks any more and we really wanted to visit the city where our country's history is so alive. We chose the Comfort Inn-Downtown Historic District for two reasons: We did not want to rent a car (we flew in) and we wanted to be reasonably close to all the happenings and historic sites; and we wanted a riverview, especially for the fireworks! We had a great corner room on the 5th floor and the room had a beautiful view east across the Delaware River to Camden, NJ and the Ben Franklin Bridge. The SE window was towards Columbus Blvd and Penn's Landing. Although from the 5th floor, the buildings across the street prohibited an actual view of Penn's Landing, but it was fantastic for the fireworks! We sat in our room and enjoyed them tremendously. The room was clean and well kept and the king size bed was firm and very comfortable. We both have back problems and many times hotel beds are old and saggy -- this one was great! The housekeeping staff were all friendly and helpful. The front desk staff was helpful and courteous and we can not say enough nice things about the Courtesy Van provided and their DRIVERS! Even though it does not run from noon until 4:00 pm, we managed to arrange our visits to all the various places we wanted to go during the morning and late afternoon/evening schedules. All the courtesy van drivers were so friendly and helpful with any information we asked or needed. They also tell you to call them on their cell phones to be picked up when you are ready to return to the hotel -- what a plus! The van will take you within a 20 block area and this is a fabulous extra bonus for this hotel. We enjoyed our four days in Philadelphia greatly and would like to return again. Yes, we will stay at the Comfort Inn Dwntwn Historic District the next time also; we so seldom get to go on a vacation and having a place to "call your home" while you are away is great. The only down side was the morning breakfast and empty soda machines. Very few items on the breakfast bar and if you didn't get down there VERY early there wasn't much left. The soda machine never did work during our stay. Small problems compared to all the pluses of this hotel! Thanks for a Great 4th of July and our mini-vacation!
Good location, bad service
The best thing about this hotel is the location - it is walking distance to just about everything: waterfront, South St., Market St., liberty Bell, Historic District, Etc. Other than that, this property leaves alot to be desired. First, our remote control was completely broken and in trying to get it to work, we accidentally must have ordered some pay movies. The hotel actually tried to charge me for 3 movies that showed up on the bill as having been rented at the same time! How could i have watched 3 movies at once? Next, we tried to get a soda or a water from the vending machine on our floor(5th), but the machine kept eating our money. The staff told us that to access ice and or a beverage we would have to use the vending machines in the lobby. The worst thing about this hotel was the absolute incompetence of the staff. They charged both mine and my friend's credit cards multiple times, for different amounts, upon checking out. When i returned home after my stay and checked my bank statement, i immediately called teh hotel to rectify the problem. I got the run around from their accounting dept for almost a week before someone agreed to credit my account, yet she still argued with me that no mistake was made. Now, they've credited my card, but have re-charged my friend's. This makes three times that her card has been charged for a one night stay. And the hotel is arguing that they have only charged her once! We'll see how long it actually takes for this money situation to get cleaned up. For this reason alone, i would not stay at this comfort inn property even again.
Give Me A Break
Not so comfortable if you ask me. Rooms were clean and somewhat reasonable biut there are less expensive places with more to offer. If you want to walk to Penn's Landing - fine, but to get to anywhere else you need to get in your car. Columbus Blvd traffic is noisy for sleeping and dangerous for walking. Location is off the beaten path. I ended up stayinghere because I couldn't find another room on short notice.
Excellent Penns Landing Historic district location!
This hotel is located 5 minutes from the Historic District which is where the Liberty Bell,Betsy Ross house and the brand new Independence visitors center! South Street and penns landing are about a 10 minute walk down beautiful Christopher Columbus Blvd! The front desk was helpful, the courtsey van runs early morning to noon and then shuts down till 4, that is a very nice feature of this hotel! There is a $14.00 or so charge for parking but you would have to pay at any other Center City location to park anyway! You get unlimited in and out and you can park up to 4:00 the date of departure which is nice say if you want to eat lunch at Jim's steaks on South Street! The rooms are very clean and the views are excellent in most rooms, I had a riverfront view with a awesome view of the Ben Franklin Bridge and Camden, NJ waterfront, Camden is definitely worth the visit, nice riverfront park and the Battleship NJ of course! I only paid $69.00 on hotels.com that is the best way to get the best rate, simply said if you don't want the hustle and bustle and high prices in NYC but want to spend a few days in a Northeast city, Philly rules!

... day. It covers the construction of the Bill of Rights and even recognises the Patriot Act as a contentious issue in balancing the country's security and individual freedoms.
We saw the Liberty Bell then went shopping, arriving back to our hotel in time to head out to a Phillies baseball game at a huge stadium, an easy train ride from our hotel.
More shopping and museuming the next day but all totally motorsport oriented. First ...

... it to Betsy Ross' house and Ben Franklin's print shop and book bindery. Lunch was a Philly Cheesesteak of course from Sonny's. We ended the day back at Reading Terminal Market to choose our dinner from the many fresh meat, seafood and produce vendors. And even a chocolate pie from Beiler's to make Kent happy. It was definitely one of our best meals on the trip! Tomorrow we've got a long trek to Cape Cod. ...
Pre-honeymoon excitement!
... to this once in a lifetime indulgence. I also can't wait to see baby elephants. Seriously, I am counting down the hours until we are playing with the most cute, loveable creatures in the world. I also can't wait for all the exotic cuisine, floating markets, temples (known as wats), and scenery in general.
Anyways, please let us know if you have any movie recommendations for the planes or items that we should definitiely bring for us to bring.
Part One: The City
... try a different cheese in my cheesesteak (American, Provolone) as I feel like eating Wiz is a cop out… but you know what? I am in America after all. I'm just gonna own that I like my cheese steak "wit'out - wit wiz" (no onions, with cheese whiz) and enjoy the goopy hot cheezy goodness. Bliss.

In support of our Governor's 40-40-20 plan, local leaders in Bend will read books to children in recognition of the importance of early literacy and reading to kids. The State of Oregon has set an ambitious goal for educational attainment, known as the 40-40-20 goal. Approved in 2011 the goal is for 40% of adult Oregonians to hold a bachelor's or advanced degree, 40% to have an associate's degree or post secondary certificate and all adult Oregonians to hold a high school diploma by 2025. Preparing and encouraging children to read is the foundation for the Governor's plan and a high priority for the Library District. The Deschutes Public Library and Old Mill District are thrilled to help work towards this important goal.
In addition, the Deschutes Public Library District has funded the purchase of children's books for the SantaLand space offering kids the opportunity to read a new book while waiting for their family pictures with Santa.

Sun Places Java UI Toolkit Under Terms of the GPL
Three months after the announcement at the JavaOne exhibition, Sun Microsystems is putting the discussed plans into action and placed the Lightweight UI Toolkit (LWUIT) under the conditions of the GPLv2. The Toolkit is intended for Java ME applications.
The user interface toolkit has surprassed expectations in the three months waiting time since its open source release, according to Sun's Senior Technologist Terence Barr. Shai Almog and Chen Fishbein, the owners and architects of the LWUIT project, have contributed two code updates. Many developers and distributors of mobile device applications have decided to use features of LWUIT, reports Barr.
According to Barr, the developer framework is much more than a collection of tools used to build a user interface. In particular, developers should be able to adapt Java ME applications to fit a number of devices using the Lightweight UI Toolkit.
The download is available at LWUIT Project.

We're only a week removed from WrestleMania 27 and already the stage has been set for next year. It took just over 24 hours after the end of WrestleMania and the biggest match of the current generation was announced.
On April 1, the faces of two different WWE eras will face off for the first time in history. It's the match that the world has been waiting for, John Cena vs. The Rock.
There isn't much to say about this match-up that hasn't already been said. WWE fans were expecting this match to happen much sooner, as Cena and The Rock had begun their feud over a month ago.
Waiting a whole year for an announced match to take place has its risks. The last time WWE tried announcing plans for WrestleMania a year in advance, it didn't turn out as they had hoped.
Still, I think that if done right, this could turn out to be one of the biggest matches in WWE history.
While this match will undoubtedly be the main event that many have been waiting for years to see, what about the rest of the card? The announcement of John Cena and The Rock's match has us already thinking about WrestleMania 28, but it won't be the only draw of the night.
Since it is never too early to start predicting matches in WWE, here's a look at 10 other potential matches for next year's grandest stage of them all.

IT FEELS as if this has been Chris Brown month in Tattle, with his fight with Frank Ocean, his Grammy coziness with Rihanna and his run-in with Adele, who did or didn't yell at him.
Now he's again back in the nonnews.
TMZ.com reports that Brown and Drake are suing each other over their bottle-throwing fight last June at W.I.P. nightclub in the Big Apple.
French model Romain Julien filed suit first - against Brown, Drake and the club - over Julien's own injuries, and now Brown and Drake are finger-pointing the litigious way.

Spoiler alert: If you haven't seen the Mad Men Season 5 finale yet, don't read on until after you have.
Mad Men might be set in the 1960s, but happy relationships are based on our evolved attachment and caring system, and in that respect the ingredients for relationship success are the same in 1967 as in 2012.
Here are five ways Don and Megan Draper could rescue their relationship.
1. Turn towards each other
In Megan's opening scene in last night's finale she hides a letter from Don because she's feeling embarrassed. She has realized her naivete in paying for a demo reel from a company who promised to send it to agents but obviously haven't.
When Megan keeps her hurt and embarrassment a secret from Don she misses out on the opportunity to be emotionally responded to. Partners don't always "get it right" in how they respond but emotionally shutting Don out removes even the possibility of him being emotionally responsive.
Don and Megan need to take some emotional risks with each other by expressing their respective emotional vulnerabilities. Don is more emotionally responsive to Joan than he is in his relationship with Megan. For example, his response when Joan is talking about being haunted by questions about Lane's suicide is far from perfect but he seems more motivated to be emotionally responsive and less terrified to try it. In this case it was Joan who took the lead in expressing vulnerable emotions to Don, whereas Megan seems to have given up on that unless she's drunk.
2. Know each other better
2. Know each other better
Couples need to ask each other questions like "How has your upbringing influenced how you function as an adult?"
Without knowing this kind of information about each other, how our partners behave when under stress is without context.
Don and Megan both need to open up to each other about how their earlier life experiences have created their current emotional vulnerabilities, raw spots, and coping styles.
Raw spots are sensitivities that develop in earlier relationships that we carry forward into later relationships. One of Don's raw spots is his role in other people's deaths (his mother, his brother, and now Lane). If he'd been able to tell Megan about the hallucinations he was experiencing about his brother's suicide, it likely would have helped them feel close to each other.
One of Megan's raw spots is when she has a sense that people don't have confidence in her and aren't even really interested in her.
We see this theme repeat when Megan is feeling upset about not getting acting jobs. We first see Megan getting upset with her mother, and later get upset with Don.
Megan needs to to be able to explain the origin of her raw spot to Don (feeling lack of caring from her mother) and help him understand that her distress when she doesn't get caring interest from him is partly due to it rubbing her raw spot.
3. Supporting each other's exploration
3. Supporting each other's exploration
A core function of attachment relationships is that they help us have the sense of security we need to stretch ourselves, try new things, and risk failure.
Romantic partners frequently make bids for each other's attention and affection. Being responded to rather than ignored helps us feel secure in the relationship.
When Megan sang Zou Bisou Bisou in the first episode of Season 5, she misjudged that the surprise party and her performance would make Don happy. However, he could've recognized her song as her expressing herself and supported that she was being herself.
4. Find out what's happening in each other's day
Emotional responsiveness is as much about the little things as about the big things. Megan appears unaware of the ethical dilemmas Don is dealing with at work.
Don also needs to express an interest in what Megan is thinking about and doing on a day to day basis. If Don made an effort to find out one thing that was happening in Megan's day as part of their morning goodbye, it would help Megan feel like he is interested in who she is. Sometimes improving relationships is as easy as things like this.
They could also express more appreciation and admiration for each other, in little ways, everyday.
5. Better self care
Don goes through the entire episode with tooth pain. Things like pain, exerting willpower, and making lots of decisions wear down our coping capacity. While his tooth pain was wearing down his willpower, he was even more dismissive than usual to Megan. We need to take care of ourselves to be able to offer caring to others.

Controlling Parents Lead to Aggressive ChildrenDecember 14, 2012 • By A GoodTherapy.org News Summary
Child and adolescent aggression is a growing concern in society. Instances of bullying are on the rise, and interventions aimed at preventing aggressive behavior in young people have barely begun to make a dent in this problem. Research focused on childhood aggression has looked at factors that contribute to hostile behavior and found a direct link between parenting practices and child behavior. Some evidence suggests that insecure attachments may lead to aggressive behavior in children, while other theories point to exposure to violence as a pathway for learned aggression. But few studies have looked at how a particular behavior, that of psychological control, influences relational aggression in children. To explore this issue in depth, Sofie Kuppens of the Faculty of Psychology and Educational Sciences at the University of Leuven in Belgium recently led a study assessing how parental relational aggression affects adolescent aggressive behavior.
Kuppens analyzed data from 23 studies that involved nearly 9,000 young people and found that there was a direct connection between psychological control asserted by parents and relational aggression, behavior that is less subtle than verbal or physical aggression, including intimidation, rumor spreading, and eye rolling, in children. Specifically, Kuppens discovered that at a time when children are trying to find their own identities and working to assert independence, they are most vulnerable to the effects of their parents' psychological control. "The positive correlation indicates that the more parents attempt to excessively control their child's psychological world, the more youth act relationally aggressive toward peers," she said.
These results were not robust, however, and indicate that there are many other factors that shape how a child will interact with their peers. For instance, teens who are unable to accurately process and interpret the social cues of others may misinterpret them and act erroneously. This emotional processing deficit may be an indirect result of psychological control, or could be the result of other types of abuse and maltreatment. Although this study does provide a fresh look at how parental behavior affects a child's social interactions, more work needs to be done to uncover all of the factors that contribute to aggressive behavior in children and teens.
Kuppens, S., Laurent, L., Heyvaert, M., Onghena, P. (2012). Associations between parental psychological control and relational aggression in children and adolescents: A multilevel and sequential meta-analysis. Developmental Psychology. Advance online publication. doi: 10.1037/a0030740

oh kids and teens can easily be affected by things that we may not think a lot about.you never know what little thing you say or do can cause harm to them, that's a developing mind.while there is no strict guide or points to follow to be a good parent I think some things just need to be understood- and one of them is to not be aggressive to or even in the presence of youngsters.it can really affect them and their future actions,actions that may come in the way of their development.
GreenHeadDecember 15th, 2012 at 3:04 PM
Its much like the sand analogy.Holding it too tight will make it slip away.As parents, there are rules to have for yourself, too much control and authority has never gotten anyone anywhere and it will not as a parent either.If anything,you are only making your child more like yourself,aggressive and subjecting them to hardships that are easy to prevent just by a little action on your part as a parent.

The shooter of the devastation that happened in Connecticut supposedly had a ridgid mother.
richelleDecember 16th, 2012 at 8:16 AM
not only are you not channelizing their frustrations and anger the right way by giving them an outlet,you are also heaping your own frustrations on their own.and when there is no outlet it will build up inside and will one day explode like a volcano.be a proactive parent but not one that is a dictator.choose a moderate path and do not be rigid with your children.
ColemanDecember 16th, 2012 at 9:57 AM
@ amanda- I know that we are all looking for answers in that case, but there are so many other contributing issues that I think that it is wrong to only point the finger of blame in one direction. Aggression is something that can often come out of nowhere and there just are no easy answers, even when we feel like we need them. I find that in cases like this the most that we can do is accept what has happened and pray hard for the families who have been left behind to deal with the tragedy and the loss.

The Organizational Health and Wellness Summit will explore new frontiers of workplace health promotion and prevention. The Summit provides a unique opportunity for business leaders, union representatives, OH&S, frontline practitioners, HR professionals and researchers, to learn about the latest strategies for improving mental and physical health in Canadian workplaces.
Canadian employers are facing relentless pressures to reduce absenteeism, presenteeism, disability costs and to improve productivity and corporate bottom line. The speakers and their interactive sessions will focus on how these challenges are interconnected and that the best way forward is to "connect the dots". The speakers and participants will work together towards developing an integrated, comprehensive and cost-effective framework that can be implemented in their organizations to address top-of-mind concerns that include the following:
- Reducing absenteeism and presenteeism;
- Reducing risks to psychological health and safety in workplaces;
- Improving employee engagement in existing wellness initiatives;
- Enabling employer-union collaboration to achieve health and wellness goals;
- Implementing best practices for work disability prevention;
- Taking a collaborative approach to return-to-work;
- Aligning health, safety and wellness initiatives with corporate strategy;

The Confederate battle flag on the modest flagpole beside the Confederate soldier's monument on the northern grounds of the Capitol in Columbia is well-known to defenders and detractors alike. Often ignored is the presence of an impressive relief sculpture on the eastern grounds of the Capitol.
The 25-foot-long granite and bronze sculpture by Ed Dwight of Denver, dedicated in 2001, depicts the long history of black people in South Carolina, including the raising of the first two regiments of black troops formed from among freed slaves.

Technical Details
Teaching Tips
- It would be helpful for the educator to obtain a map of areas that will be impacted by sea level rise. See: http://library.globalchange.gov/a-human-health-perspective-on-climate-change or http://poleshift.ning.com/profiles/blogs/cities-at-risk-from-rising-sea.
- Photo story could be used in a variety of courses: design/technology/engineering, geography, marine science/oceanography, climate change.
- Students could be encouraged to consider these designs as a response to severe weather events.
- Students could be encouraged to design and explain their own resolution to coastal cities dealing with sea level rise.
- Highly recommend that educators connect the images to the content in the articles referenced in the slideshow.
About the Science
- In the last decade, floating architecture has come into the market as a realistic opportunity for planning for sea level rise in the next century.
- Passed initial science review - expert science review pending.
About the Pedagogy
- The photo essay is accompanied by a transcript of background information and a few links are given for students to go into more depth.
Next Generation Science Standards See how this Simulation/Interactive supports:
Middle School
Performance Expectations: 5
MS-ETS1-1: Define the criteria and constraints of a design problem with sufficient precision to ensure a successful solution, taking into account relevant scientific principles and potential impacts on people and the natural environment that may limit possible solutions.
MS-ETS1-2: Evaluate competing design solutions using a systematic process to determine how well they meet the criteria and constraints of the problem.
MS-ETS1-3: Analyze data from tests to determine similarities and differences among several design solutions to identify the best characteristics of each that can be combined into a new solution to better meet the criteria for success.
MS-ETS1-4: Develop a model to generate data for iterative testing and modification of a proposed object, tool, or process such that an optimal design can be achieved.
MS-ESS3-2: Analyze and interpret data on natural hazards to forecast future catastrophic events and inform the development of technologies to mitigate their effects.
Disciplinary Core Ideas: 7
MS-ETS1.A1:The more precisely a design task's criteria and constraints can be defined, the more likely it is that the designed solution will be successful. Specification of constraints includes consideration of scientific principles and other relevant knowledge that are likely to limit possible solutions.
MS-ETS1.B1:A solution needs to be tested, and then modified on the basis of the test results, in order to improve it.
MS-ETS1.B2:There are systematic processes for evaluating solutions with respect to how well they meet the criteria and constraints of a problem.
MS-ETS1.B3:Sometimes parts of different solutions can be combined to create a solution that is better than any of its predecessors.
MS-ETS1.B4:Models of all kinds are important for testing solutions.
MS-ETS1.C1:Although one design may not perform the best across all tests, identifying the characteristics of the design that performed the best in each test can provide useful information for the redesign process—that is, some of those characteristics may be incorporated into the new design.
MS-ETS1.C2:The iterative process of testing the most promising solutions and modifying what is proposed on the basis of the test results leads to greater refinement and ultimately to an optimal solution
Cross Cutting Concepts: 2
MS-C6.1:Complex and microscopic structures and systems can be visualized, modeled, and used to describe how their function depends on the shapes, composition, and relationships among its parts; therefore, complex natural and designed structures/systems can be analyzed to determine how they function.
MS-C6.2:Structures can be designed to serve particular functions by taking into account properties of different materials, and how materials can be shaped and used.
Science and Engineering Practices: 4
MS-P2.5:Develop and/or use a model to predict and/or describe phenomena.
MS-P2.6: Develop a model to describe unobservable mechanisms.
MS-P2.7:Develop and/or use a model to generate data to test ideas about phenomena in natural or designed systems, including those representing inputs and outputs, and those at unobservable scales.
MS-P1.8:Define a design problem that can be solved through the development of an object, tool, process or system and includes multiple criteria and constraints, including scientific knowledge that may limit possible solutions.
High School
Performance Expectations: 5
HS-ESS3-4: Evaluate or refine a technological solution that reduces impacts of human activities on natural systems.
HS-ETS1-1: Analyze a major global challenge to specify qualitative and quantitative criteria and constraints for solutions that account for societal needs and wants.
HS-ETS1-2: Design a solution to a complex real-world problem by breaking it down into smaller, more manageable problems that can be solved through engineering.
HS-ETS1-3: Evaluate a solution to a complex real-world problem based on prioritized criteria and trade-offs that account for a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics as well as possible social, cultural, and environmental impacts.
HS-ETS1-4: Use a computer simulation to model the impact of proposed solutions to a complex real-world problem with numerous criteria and constraints on interactions within and between systems relevant to the problem.
Disciplinary Core Ideas: 5
HS-ETS1.A1:Criteria and constraints also include satisfying any requirements set by society, such as taking issues of risk mitigation into account, and they should be quantified to the extent possible and stated in such a way that one can tell if a given design meets them.
HS-ETS1.A2:Humanity faces major global challenges today, such as the need for supplies of clean water and food or for energy sources that minimize pollution, which can be addressed through engineering. These global challenges also may have manifestations in local communities
HS-ETS1.B1:When evaluating solutions, it is important to take into account a range of constraints, including cost, safety, reliability, and aesthetics, and to consider social, cultural, and environmental impacts.
HS-ETS1.B2:Both physical models and computers can be used in various ways to aid in the engineering design process. Computers are useful for a variety of purposes, such as running simulations to test different ways of solving a problem or to see which one is most efficient or economical; and in making a persuasive presentation to a client about how a given design will meet his or her needs.
HS-ETS1.C1:Criteria may need to be broken down into simpler ones that can be approached systematically, and decisions about the priority of certain criteria over others (trade-offs) may be needed
Cross Cutting Concepts: 2
HS-C6.1:Investigating or designing new systems or structures requires a detailed examination of the properties of different materials, the structures of different components, and connections of components to reveal its function and/or solve a problem.
HS-C6.2:The functions and properties of natural and designed objects and systems can be inferred from their overall structure, the way their components are shaped and used, and the molecular substructures of its various materials.
Science and Engineering Practices: 2
HS-P1.8:Define a design problem that involves the development of a process or system with interacting components and criteria and constraints that may include social, technical, and/or environmental considerations.
HS-P2.6:Develop and/or use a model (including mathematical and computational) to generate data to support explanations, predict phenomena, analyze systems, and/or solve problems.

choosing a new board
my board was stolen last season and im looking for a new one
ive always ridden camber, but im very interested in banana or rocker tech.
any suggestions?
what type of riding do you do? how much do you weigh? 2 companys to consider would be NeverSummer or LibTech. nearly every company now has some sort of version of reverse camber though so there are plently of options.
1: Decide on what you wanna ride: park, all mountain, big mountain/powder
2: decide on level of desired performance: beginner(low response), intermediate(mid response), advanced(high response)
3: set a budget depending on how advanced of a board and the type of riding
4: find all the boards from all the companies that fit your criteria and pick the one with the coolest topsheet.
It's eerie how much sense this makes. :thumbsup:
you forgot the: ask a bunch of questions about the board on the internet part
im 5' 10'', 150 pounds
i ride all mountain. i used to ride a burton custom x which was pretty stiff and i would like to experiment with something a little softer so i can butter and press. im a strong rider. i do expert terrain and big park features and it just depends on the snow conditions to what i ride. ive only got enough money for one board so it needs to be versatile. hopefully under $600 dollars.
if you want something buttery/fun but still can handle the mtn the NeverSummer evo-r is a very good board. also the NS SL-r is a slightly stiffer version of the evo-r. from lib tech the TRS is a awesome board and is on the stiffer side but with the banana its fairly easy to press still.
can the banana handle pack?
2010 k2 turbo dream or believer, both boards your gonna get what you want,

- [Voiceover] Hi, and welcome to Microsoft Office for Mac 2008 New Feature training. I'm David Rivers. There are big changes in this latest release of Microsoft's Office Suite built for the Mac, with some of the biggest improvements showing up behind the scenes. For example, Office 2008 uses the same XML-based file format as the 2007 Microsoft Office system on Windows-based computers, so the files you create in Office 2008 on your Mac will always look the same on a Windows PC running Office 2007. Because Office runs on Intel-based and PowerPC-based Macs, you'll be able to share ideas easily with other Mac users, regardless of which Mac they use.
Office 2008 has been redesigned and reinvented to be more compatible with other applications, more powerful, and more intuitive, making it easier to use. In this title, we'll explore the fresh, new interface designed to make it easy for you to discover new ways to present your ideas and manage your day. We'll discuss new and improved tools shared across the suite like the Elements Gallery, SmartArt graphics and themes, to help you create professional looking documents with ease. We'll explore new and improved features found in each of the individual applications in the suite, Word, PowerPoint, Excel, and Entourage.
So, let's get start4ed.
