Huntington's Disease: more from Which School? for Special Needs… June 30, 2010Posted by Alex, Managing Director in Special Educational Needs.
add a comment
Many UK news outlets have been carrying stories over the last couple of days about new figures surrounding the devastating genetic disease, Huntington's.
As this link to a Sky News story reveals, this inherited neurological condition was once thought to affect fewer than 6,000 people in the UK.
But new figures show 6,702 adults and children are suffering symptoms, which include problems with brain function and muscle movement.
In our Which School? for Special Needs 2010/11 guide, published earlier this year, we carried some very interesting editorial about HD and how it affects young people.
We have reproduced part of the article, kindly contributed by Helen Santini, Roald Dahl Care Adviser for Juvenile Huntington's Disease, and Cath Stanley, Head of Care Services for the Huntington's Disease Association, below…
Juvenile-onset Huntington's disease (JHD)
Huntington's disease usually affects adults, although in a small number of cases it can affect children and teenagers (juvenile-onset HD, or JHD). However, only about 5-10% of those with HD will develop symptoms before the age of 20. JHD is therefore a rare condition and this can make dealing with it an isolating experience for those affected, their families and also professionals involved in their care. When young people develop JHD, it is likely that their school or college will become one of the key groups involved in their care, and in supporting any siblings who may be at school.
The HDA family weekend, which is specifically aimed at young people with HD and their familes, is held at a disabled activity centre and provides a unique opportunity for families to meet other people in the same situation and learn more about the condition from each other. It also gives the children and young adults with JHD an opportunity to take part in a whole range of exciting activities that they wouldn't otherwise be able to take part in, giving them a sense of achievement.
Young carers
It is important to remember that Huntington's disease doesn't just affect the person with the condition, particularly given the inherited nature of HD. When a parent has the condition, there is often a great impact on the children within the family and the school can have an important role in supporting them. Family roles may be affected and children may have to take on additional caring roles for their parent.
There may also be an increased burden on the unaffected spouse, impacting on a child's home life. Children may face changing symptoms within a parent that they don't always fully understand, as well as aspects of the hereditary nature of HD and their own risk. Some families may find it very difficult to know how and when to discuss these things with children.
Finally, there may be issues around repeated loss, as well as grief and bereavement, that schools may need to be aware of. It is particularly important for schools to be aware that HD is taught as part of the National Curriculum and that there may, at any time these lessons are being taught, be children within the class whose lives are affected by the condition.
In addition to providing support and advice, the HDA offers four annual summer camps throughout England and Wales for children from families affected by HD. For young adults aged from 18 years onwards, the HDA now also offers a conference, 'Decisions, Discussions and Dilemmas', which gives them an opportunity to explore areas such as testing, having children and caring, as well as a chance to meet other young people in the same situation. From this, a Huntington's Disease Youth Association has recently been established, with a Yahoo group and Facebook page. There is a range of literature aimed at young people available on the HDA website.

John Catt reaches booksales milestone: £750k and counting! June 18, 2010Posted by Alex, Managing Director in John Catt Educational news.
add a comment
The future of the publishing industry is the subject of much debate over recent months, thanks to the continued growth of the eBook and the explosion of interest in reading devices such as Apple Inc.'s iPad and the Kindle.
At John Catt Educational we really are excited about these new developments and are keen to keep pace with the technological changes that are seeing new platforms become available to read our publications.
But despite all the recent digital advancements of the last few years – and all those unknown ones yet to come – it is satisfying to know that sales of our physical books are still strong – indeed, they have been strong enough over recent months to help propel the company to a pleasing milestone.
Our booksales report for May shows that we have recently passed the milestone of £750,000-worth of sales – a fantastic landmark for the John Catt team and one we are proud to reach.
A combination of hard work, talent and continuing support from our friends at various educational associations in the UK and beyond means that 2010 is proving one of our most productive ever in terms of booksales. The John Catt team have now set their sights onbreaking the £1m barrier over the next few years – what a party that will be…
Former Olympic chief Simon Clegg: Sport, independent schools and young people June 14, 2010Posted by Alex, Managing Director in Independent Education, New releases.
add a comment
Simon Clegg CBE is the former chief executive of the British Olympic Association and was a key figure in the awarding of the 2012 Olympic Games to London.
Now chief executive of Ipswich Town Football Club, Simon recently gave us his thoughts on sport in independent schools in the UK for an editorial feature in Which London School? & the South-East 2010/11.
"I am passionate about the benefit that sport can bring to society. Not only through exercise but also in terms of the camaraderie and the building of esprit de corps, and the ability of young people to learn that it is important to play by the rules and the whole principles of fair play.
Sport also educates young people in experiencing failure and victory, and plays an important role in teaching young people about acting in an appropriate manner on a sports field. Our high-level sports people in this country do need to be seen as role models for society and it is quite important that young children aspire to be like these role models: sport is a very powerful vehicle for achieving that.
I went first of all to Haslemere Prep School in Surrey and then, after Common Entrance, I went on to Stowe. Sport is not the exclusive domain of the independent education sector, but I think that sport and extracurricular activities in general play a much more important part in independent schools than they do in state schools. I was very lucky in that both schools I went to took their sport very seriously and had great facilities.
The independent sector has increasingly been conscious of the need to provide quality sports facilities, particularly over recent decades as they find themselves in an increasingly competitive market. Sporting facilities are one of those additional areas that can influence people when they come to make a decision where to send their children.
I was recently invited back up to Stowe for the opening of the new athletics track with Sebastian Coe. They have now got the most fantastic facilities, state-of-the-art facilities which upgraded the track that they had there for many decades. This constant development of facilities in independent schools is striking.
There are some important factors in this disparity between the independent and state sectors. First of all, the financial independence that the independent sector enjoys is key: they are able to spend their own money on developing not only their own academic facilities, but also their extracurricular facilities as well. Of course in the public sector that is much more constrained; any funding that is available is spent mainly on academic facilities.
There is also a very clear understanding in the independent sector that the schools operate in a highly competitive environment and they need to attract custom. One of the ways of doing that is improving the facilities at the school from a holistic point of view.
The physical development of the individual is a major part of the holistic approach that I have to education. I take a very broad view about education, in which I see the development of the whole individual as more important than just academic qualifications. Education should be about preparing children for life after academia and therefore one needs to think about not only their academic development but also their physical and social development as well.
To me, sport is a factor when it comes to choosing an independent school. Considering the career path that I have enjoyed, where sport played an important part first of all when I was in the Army, then when I was on the national ski teams in the mid 1980s, through to my involvement with the British Olympic Association and now with my role at Ipswich Town Football Club, that perhaps is not surprising.
But I have always looked at education from a holistic approach, where one needs to balance not only the academic aspects but also the sporting aspects, social aspects, and the pastoral aspects. When all those areas come together, a child is sure to have an excellent education.
It is impossible to look at any one area in isolation, and of course different parents will have different priorities to myself, but from my point of view sport is an integral part of the holistic approach, and independent schools in this country should be applauded for the importance they place on the benefits associated with kids getting active."
Chris Woodhead: Academies plan "in principle, excellent" June 11, 2010Posted by Alex, Managing Director in Independent Education.
1 comment so far
As Tribune Magazine report today, teachers are voicing their concerns about the government's plans for more academy schools.
All three teaching unions – the National Union of Teachers, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers and the National Association of Schoolmasters Union of Women Teachers – have come together to oppose plans they believe are being "rushed through" Parliament.
The recently released issue of Which London School? & the South-East contains a forward written by Chris Woodhead, former HM Chief Inspector of Schools, and leading commentator on educational policy.
As you can read below, Chris generally approves of the academies plan – although he does have some reservations…
"More children are educated in independent schools in London and the south-east than in any other part of the country. Why? Because more parents in the south-east can afford to educate their children privately, but equally, because in London in particular, demand for a good education outstrips supply.
Your guess about the continuing affordability of private education is as good as mine. We may or may not be escaping the recession and those responsible for setting fees in independent schools may or may not have realised that the annual above-inflation hike is unsustainable. What I do know is that demand for private schooling will continue. In the south-east, as in every other region of England, there are some wonderful state schools, but there are not nearly enough of them. If you live within spitting distance of the front gates, you might stand a chance of securing a place in a successful and therefore over-subscribed school. Otherwise, forget it.
The previous Labour Government would, of course, like us all to believe that the number of failing schools has been reduced, that the Academy and Specialist Schools initiatives have resulted in many more highly effective schools, and that you only have to look at each year's record GCSE and A level statistics to realise that all is rosy in the world of state education.
In real terms we spend two thirds more on education than we did in 1997. As the Public Accounts Committee has pointed out, there has not been a commensurate improvement in educational standards. The truth is that billions of pounds of public money have been poured down the drain and many parents have and will continue to have no option other than to dig deep into their pockets and go private.
All may, perhaps, change following the election. In principle, the Conservatives' plan to enable parents to set up their own schools is excellent. The more schools we have competing with one another to meet the aspirations of parents as consumers the better. Any initiative which undermines state monopoly provision must be good.
But, in practice, how independent will these so called 'independent state schools' be? They will still have to teach the discredited National Curriculum. They will still be inspected by a discredited Ofsted. They will not, crucially, be allowed to set their own admissions policy. So, if you want your academically-able child to attend an academically-selective school, a change of Government will leave you no better off than you are now.
And how many parents have the time, energy and knowledge to set up their own school? The jury is, I am afraid, very much out on Mr Cameron's flagship education reforms…"
Web 2.0 and language learning June 10, 2010Posted by Alex, Managing Director in International education, New releases.
add a comment
The summer issue of is (International School) magazine is back from the printers and is on its way to subscribers around the world as I type. is magazine is the official magazine for ECIS members and serves to promote and highlight education in an international context.
One of the themes of the summer issue is the use of technology in the classroom: we featured an article on this blog recently about the use of mobile phones in the teaching of music, and here we follow it up with the beginning of an article written by Victor Gonzalez Guzman, the Spanish and ICT teacher at the International School of Bremen.
Web 2.0 and language learning
Victor Gonzales Guzman explores possibilities the internet may have for language teachers
Let's imagine that a surgeon of the 19th century travels through time to a 21st century operating theatre. Where would he start to work? Everything would be new, the methods, and the tools, and he would have to learn fast in order to catch up with the new developments.
If a teacher takes the same time machine, the final experience might be different. He or she would immediately recognize the board, the chalk box, the student books and the duster and would start to do the job in less time than the blink of an eye.
This example, posed by Sebastián Barajas, the Spanish expert in virtual learning, illustrates how little teaching has changed in the past 200 years, in spite of the rapid development of technology. In education, blended learning (a mix of online and face-to-face instruction) has become a necessary trend not only for language teachers but also for all school subjects.
Its authenticity stems from a multifaceted way of presenting content where students can take the role of explorers discovering the world around them through sound, image and text. Communication in ICT-enhanced lessons permits us to take the leap from static text books to the fluidity of web 2.0, boosting students' confidence through constant updating, self-development and participation in society.
Technology-enriched lessons are dynamic and demand networked-dynamic teachers. This means that every language teacher in class should strive to be a creator, facilitator and supervisor in order to let students construct their own learning styles and preferences with the aid of computer mediated tools. Twenty-first century learners learn by doing, not listening to a static centred classroom teacher. Their independence and self-reliance makes them take and active role in class, share their knowledge with their classmates and adapt fast to new forms of communicationa and mash-up culture. Faster than their teachers sometimes!
This shift from lecture to student-centred instruction is not only a matter of technology but also of being convinced about its intrinsic value. The enormous potential that digital technology has to offer is directly linked to the imagination of the educator…

Which London School? & the South-East is our guide to independent schooling in and surrounding the UK capital – and the 2010/11 edition is now back from the printers and being distributed nationwide and beyond.
The book is available to buy from all leading internet bookshops, including www.johncattbookshop.com, and is also distributed to major reference points in the UK and around the world – such as libraries, British Councils and the HR departments of Blue Chip companies.
In addition to a comprehensive directory of day, boarding and nursery schools, international schools as well as specialist sixth-form schools and colleges, the guidebook also contains a useful editorial section.
In this 21st edition, our editor Alex Sharratt has included articles from Simon Clegg CBE, former chief executive of the British Olympic Association; popular parenting website Mumsnet on Coping With The School Run; Edward Elliott, Head of the Perse school in Cambridge; David Boddy, Head of St James Independent School for Senior Boys; and Go4It and Northwood College.
We were also fortunate enough to feature a forward from Chris Woodhead, chairman of the Cognita group, and former HM Chief Inspector of Schools.
We would like to express our thanks to all those who contributed editorial and photographs to the book, and of course to all the schools who took the time to help us ensure that Which London School? remains the most comprehensive and accurate guide to independent education in the south-east.
The physical book is, of course, backed up by its sister website www.whichlondonschool.co.uk, which has also been fully updated and revised.

Have a [redacted] and [redacted] 2008 Olympic [redacted]
It's bad enough that China restricts its citizens' access to news and information. But now they're doing it to the rest of us, too. International journalists covering the XXIX Olympiad will not be able to access certain websites while inside China. Sites covering topics like Tibet and Falun Gong, aka all the morally dubious things the Chinese government doesn't want you to know about. And, reporters have been advised to write their emails and make phone calls with the knowledge that it will all be monitored. Weak.
Worse, the International Olympic Committee is helping them do it. Despite assurances during the bidding process that journalists would be given unrestricted freedom to report, details are emerging that senior IOC officials cut a deal with the Chinese government to allow certain websites to be blocked. Just to amp up the irony, the IOC is charged with perserving and promoting 'olympism', defined as:
"Olympism is a philosophy of life, exalting and combining in a balanced whole the qualities of body, will and mind. Blending sport with culture and education, Olympism seeks to create a way of life based on the joy found in effort, the educational value of good example and respect for universal fundamental ethical principles."
Funny. Not a lot in there about "helping autocratic regimes oppress and mire their citizens in ignorance". But maybe I'm misinterpreting it.
Nunc's prediction: Worst. Olympics. Ever. Toxic smog and huge algae blooms in a country were civil and human rights are a bad joke. I bet Toronto's starting to look pretty good now, huh? We may not have enough four-star hotels, but at least we're not totalitarian jerks.

Thrift Store Opens
The Bread of Life Rescue Mission has opened up a Thrift Store to better serve the public with reasonably priced lightly used clothing, household items, furniture, appliances, and many other items including sporting goods, electronics, outdoor equipment, etc.
The new Bread of Life Rescue Mission's Thrift Store is located at 356 West Ave., Crossville, TN (The old Marlow Motors building) and will be accepting donations of the above items at a designated, sign directed, drop off location at the store. The hours of operation are from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Monday thru Friday and Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.; closed Sunday. The phone number is 931-337-0555. Many volunteers are needed to help at the new Thrift Store, from sorting and displaying clothing, testing appliances, rearranging furniture, pricing items, cleaning items and store areas, help with pick-ups, helping and directing customers, accepting donations, etc. So, if you are looking to help at this important Christian mission, please call during business hours.
BOL Beacon of Hope | Fall/Winter 2016
"Donations of food items will continue to be accepted at The Bread of Life Rescue Mission located at 281 4th St. Food boxes, meals, assistance, and other services will continue at the Mission building." The programs and services at the Mission have increased dramatically at the Mission since the new building was built a little more than three years ago. Since the Mission does not accept government funds for any of their programs, the new Thrift Store is expected to contribute greatly to those much needed programs and services through the donations of various items that will be sold. For more information about the Bread of Life Thrift Store, or to volunteer, please visit their website at www.BreadOfLifeThriftStore.com. Also, our Facebook page is located on the "Home" page of the website.
Special Apology Message To All Bread of Life Rescue Mission Donors
As many of you already know, The Mission opened a new Thrift Store on May 1st 2016. As a result, we became shorthanded in the office of the Mission. During the transition of opening the Thrift Store, we were unable to find a Volunteer or staff person to complete the task of sending out our normal "Thank You" donation letters. Our Office Manager, Randall Reagan, was assigned as Thrift Store Manager in March, before the Thrift Store opened, to coordinate the selection of the site, organize setting up the various sections of clothing, household items, furniture, donation and sorting areas, etc., in the store and start the hiring process. Finally, in the middle of May we were able to find a qualified Administrative Assistant, Judy Steele, to learn the various programs necessary to get back on track to complete data entry, address changes and other administrative duties. Judy comes to us with a strong Christian background and a vast degree of organizational skills acquired from bookkeeping and

Appreciation Dinner
Ralph Reagan, Co-Executive Director, of the Bread of Life Rescue Mission, addressed the more than 300 guests attending the Annual Appreciation Dinner held at the Cumberland County Community Complex with a complete dinner served by Forte's Restaurant. Mr. Reagan began the program by informing the guests that in the almost 16 years of the Mission's existence, he baptized more than 11,000 people. Other important statistics included the Mission serving more than 82,000 people during 2015. Numbers of significance included the Medical Clinic served 478, Bed nights 13,807, Assistance with utilities, 840, Food boxes, 2,220, Meals served, 60,631 and sack lunches for resident workers, 3,526. Greg Williams, Chaplain at the Bledsoe Prison explained the Take 1 program that rehabilitates prisoners to return to society when their sentence is served. Moderator of the evening's program, Frank Massaro, Community Resource Manager for the Mission recognized all the Veterans, Board members and volunteers for their service and thanked Forte's Restaurant for serving a delicious dinner and Donnie Moody, Complex Director, for setting up the stage, tables & chairs for the event. Hilltopper's Inc. special needs members are also volunteering at the Mission and the new Thrift Store, a great partnership. The heart of the program was listening to the testimonies of former residents that stayed at the Mission and have become successful with the aid of the Mission. Terry Fine and Arturo Bustos Abonza were such residents that have succeeded. Arturo's life story was very inspiring as he was originally from Mexico, but raised in Georgia, got married to Maria, got in trouble through addiction and served time in prison. Four years ago, he was saved by God's grace and came to the Mission about 2 years ago with nothing. His family was still in Georgia. The Mission encouraged Arturo to keep his eyes on Jesus and helped him with transportation, shelter, food and

encouraged him to find a job. After 2 weeks, he found a full time job. After 2 months, he found a home and was able to bring his family to Crossville. Arturo said, "I would like to thank all the churches that are supporting the Mission and those who have a part in the Mission as they are the vessels of blessings from the Lord." Frank then introduced Randall Reagan, Thrift Store Manager, who described the newly opened Thrift Store at 356 West Ave. with hours of operation from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday thru Friday and 9 a.m. Saturday to 3 p.m. and closed on Sunday. The store phone number is 931-337-0555. Frank had some concluding remarks and reminded everyone to view the Bread of Life Rescue Mission website at www.breadofliferescue.org or call the Mission at 931-707-0503. Danny Smith, Pastor, Crab Orchard Christian Church closed the program out with prayer, but also reminded Ralph that when he was a Deputy Sheriff, he was the last person to arrest Ralph and sent him back to prison. And now they are both brothers in Christ!

The weather finally cooperated blessing the Mission with a beautiful, sunny and warm day for everyone to enjoy this year's festivities, which included gospel singing, guided tours of the Mission, plenty of food, and fun at the playground, inflatable's and a dunking booth for the kids. A special thank you goes out to Joyful Praise for setting up and use of the sound equipment for all singers including Joyful Praise, Steve Wilson, Jim Ricketts, True Believers and Tim Turner. The cooks included Bobby Trowbridge, Ben Sanders, Jason VanHorn, and John Teeple, who provided plenty of chicken, pork, bologna, and his specialty of Lo Country Boil (for those who aren't sure what that is, you can call John at 931-510-
6164 for more information). We also want to thank the City of Crossville for closing the section of 4th St in front of the Mission that provided a safe place for the kids and adults to cross the street for activities held on both sides of 4th St. Without the help of volunteers and staff, it would have been impossible to attend to the needs of the more than 400 people that attended and enjoyed a wonderful day of praise, games, food, and guided tours of the Mission. Volunteers prepared covered dishes including homemade ice cream!

Celebrates 16 Years
October 11th, 2000, the Bread of Life Rescue Mission began serving the homeless and less fortunate at 281 4th St. Crossville, TN. From meager beginnings in a very small house behind the Miracle on 4th St. Chapel, Connie and Ralph Reagan had a vision to begin helping the homeless by providing meals and housing. First Baptist Church of Crossville, started a side door ministry to help the hurting by providing the initial support for the Mission's beginning and have continued to support the Mission throughout the toughest of financial times. Connie and Ralph had just $14 together, but had faith that others would join in their mission. The house provided meals for the hurting, the less fortunate homeless on the streets, the residents, and anyone who needed something to eat. The Chapel had sleeping quarters underneath the sanctuary that housed the men and the small house provided shelter and comfort for women and children. To say that things were a bit crowded was an understatement, but they persevered. Ralph continued to go out into the community and speak about their Mission and began to make financial progress especially with local churches individuals, and businesses. Volunteers came to help by serving meals, cooking, cleaning, funding and untold other tasks that were necessary to provide the services needed to maintain structure for those in need. Two years later, they began the food box ministry, which continues today. The Mission truly provided a beacon of hope for the hurting and continues today. Once stable, Ralph began his education in Kentucky until he received his doctorate in divinity and has baptized more than 11,000 since. About four years ago, progress continued with the completion of the new Mission building across the street from the Chapel and small house (now the Medical Clinic), that is able to house both men, women and children
in separate dormitories, offices, a reception area, food pantry and cafeteria with a large kitchen. In addition to providing housing, residents have an opportunity to learn more about the Bible, themselves, and becoming useful citizens in the community by getting jobs (with the help of a sack lunch and drink), saving money while at the Mission, and ultimately getting their own place to live without having to be exposed to street life. The Mission also provides food boxes and assistance with utilities and rent for those in the community that qualify. Although the numbers helped at the beginning of this ministry were about 3,000 meals served, and 16 to 30 residents, records from 2015 are truly remarkable and are as follows: Medical patients seen, 478; Received Christ, 60; Baptisms, 30; Residents, 648; Bed nights, 13,807; Assistance, 840; Food boxes, 2,220; Meals served, 60,631; Sack lunches for workers, 3,526; People who received housing, 80; Clothing & furniture, 144, which adds up to a total number of people served to 82,464! We have been very fortunate to have churches, individuals, civic organizations and businesses to help provide the meals as well as serving them. Those groups are also pivotal with their financial aid, (especially since we do not take state or government funds), volunteers and other donations of food for our food pantry as well as other useable items by the Mission and new Thrift Store. In May of this year the Mission opened their Thrift Store, which provides low priced furniture, appliances, household items, clothing and arts and crafts for anyone in the community. It also provides job opportunities for Mission residents in stocking shelves, inventory, cashiering, receiving and customer service. The Thrift Store (931-337-0555) will schedule pick-ups for your donations and their hours are Monday – Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

A healing perspective on topics in the news
Family Unity: Working together for health and healing I raised my children in Christian Science, a religion and way of life based on Christ Jesus' healing works, as well as his other teachings. When they became adults, two daughters followed a different path for many years until challenges drew them back.
Can Gratitude Survive Black Friday? This is one of the best weeks of the year on my calendar, as Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. It's a time to gather family together and slow down, to step away from life's busyness and immerse myself in the love of family, country, and God. But wait a minute. Who put Black Friday there?
Only good can touch you: finding liberation from all that would be harmful Perhaps we can all recall times when we have been touched by something. We may be touched by seeing a child do something thoughtful to make a friend feel happy. Or, in another direction, someone might do something to hurt us emotionally or even physically.
National peacemaking and prayer in the aftermath of recent college campus shootings Fatal shootings at college campuses in Oregon, Arizona, and Texas have revived the discussion in the United States about guns, the laws regulating them, and the ongoing challenges to preserve individual safety... 'At the center of nonviolence stands the principle of love,' stated Martin Luther King Jr."
A spiritual response to commercial cybertheft is the creative Principle in all of us In a recent editorial, the Monitor wrote on an agreement between the United States and China "to work together to fight the theft of commercial secrets in cyberspace," noting that it "signals to countries, companies, and individuals that they must develop their own creativity – rather than steal ideas and technology from others."
Can the Goliath disease (Alzheimer's) be defeated? Despite the billions spent on medical research, some health conditions and diseases still appear insurmountable. Take Alzheimer's disease. When I first heard about this terrible, seemingly untreatable condition, I saw how David must have felt when he first saw the towering figure of Goliath.
During election time, prayer can uplift politics In the United States, the presidential campaign season is heating up. By describing their suitability for office and presenting their thoughts about government, those hoping to succeed President Obama help voters to make choices. In addition to listening to what competitors say, voters also judge their character...
What really links to living long and healthy? The pursuit of health and longevity is ongoing, with many searching for links between health and elements of lifestyle including greater income, higher education, and better health care access. But is there a direct link between these aspects of lifestyle and health? Not necessarily. Surprisingly, Latinos throughout the country don't show corresponding links between health and income, education level, and access to health care
Can the Goliath disease (Alzheimer's) be defeated? Despite the billions spent on medical research, some health conditions and diseases still appear insurmountable. Take Alzheimer's disease. When I first heard about this terrible, seemingly untreatable condition, I saw how David must have felt when he first saw the towering figure of Goliath.
How to take lessons learned in tennis into life's game Ask anyone what they think is the most important thing in life, and they'll usually give the same answer – health. I met Roy at a community meeting where we discussed spirituality and healthy life styles. As a tennis player and coach he talked about the the development of a healthy inner self.
Looking beyond the brain for health Is it important to focus entirely on the body in order to know how to maintain your health? Is health exclusively dependent on material things (blood, bones, etc.), as has been generally accepted over time? Or does the fact that the body is comprised of energy suggest that health is affected ...
How do spiritual conversations help in healing? When I think about it, there are actually many opportunities to discuss God and prayer in day-to-day encounters, but many times these opportunities are passed by. And any one of these missed opportunities could very well have been the life-changing moment in someone else's life.
Independence Day – Freedom from Tyranny Is July 4th just a day for barbecues, friends, and family? As we celebrate the 239th anniversary as an independent nation, we do have many things to celebrate and to be thankful for. One of the bedrocks of our country, which many other nations tragically lack, is the commitment to religious freedom...
A New View on Living Life in the Moment I was racing to be on time for an interview about the merging interests of physicians and chaplains, when I was sidetracked by several signs reading: "Mindful Conference this way." These signs caught my attention because I wondered if the spiritual mindfulness that I practiced was part of the conference's discussion.

Chapter 9 Lab
Assessment of Isometric Hand Grip Strength
View or print this lab as a PDF.
Isometric hand grip strength is an important component of physical fitness and provides a simple method for characterizing overall body strength.1,2 The performance of many manual labor activities, such as yard and garden work and lifting and carrying large objects, depends to a certain degree on hand grip strength.
This lab looks at the forces generated by a particular hand movement. It describes the procedures for measuring isometric hand grip strength with a hand grip dynamometer.
- Dynamometer
- Prior to beginning the test, adjust the length of the handle on the hand grip dynamometer so that it feels comfortable in the hand. For individuals with very small hands, the handle of the dynamometer should be shortened; for those with very large hands, the handle should be lengthened.1
- Have the subject hold the hand grip dynamometer in the right hand with the palm facing up and the elbow at approximately 90°. When ready, the subject should squeeze the dynamometer maximally for three seconds. Read the force value (kg) from the dynamometer and record it on the worksheet below. Perform the strength test two more times with the right hand, separating the trials by two minutes of rest.
- Repeat the procedures described in Step 2 for the left hand.
- Add the highest strength value (kg) for the right hand to that from the left hand and record the value on the worksheet below. Divide the sum by body weight in kg and record this value on the worksheet.
- Percentile rank norms by age and gender are provided in the table below. Compare the sum of right and left hand grip strength to the values in the table.
- Montoye, H. J., and Faulkner, J. A. Determination of the optimum setting of an adjustable grip dynamometer. Res. Q. Exerc. Sport 35: 29–36, 1964.
- Montoye, H. J., and Lamphiear, D. E. Grip and arm strength in males and females, age 10 to 69. Res. Q. Exerc. Sport 48: 109–120, 1977.

Masel Westerfield: We will miss her
Masel Westerfield, age 69, passed away peacefully March 29th at her home in Hillsboro.
Masel was born in Thompsonville, Illinois the daughter of Earl and Molly Davis. She is survived by her husband of 43 years David Westerfield, a daughter Karen DeBolt, and grandchildren Talla, Molly, and Sam Moyers of Hillsboro, also a son, Dean Westerfield, of Long Beach, Ca., two brothers, Lloyd Davis of Union Grove, WI and Robert Davis of Pekin, IL and, a sister, Gladys Herzog, a retired pastor, of Jacksonville IL. She was preceded in death by her parents and two brothers Oliver J. Davis and Elever (Dutch) Davis.
In 1973, she was diagnosed with Leukemia. After several rounds of chemo therapy, she went to Seattle for a bone marrow transplant at the Washington University Medical Clinic that was later to be known as the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. This procedure, created by Nobel Prize winner E. Donnell Thomas, was experimental at the time, and despite many challenges she was an early survivor. This story was featured in a Lifestyle article in the Hillsboro Argus August 17, 2000.
Following complete remission of her Leukemia, she worked as a special education teacher's aid for 15 years in Huntington Beach CA schools and later as a substitute in Hillsboro Schools. In her spare time, she taught English as a Second Language to adults for almost 20 years and served as director of that literacy program for several years.
Masel served as a deacon for six years at the First Presbyterian Church of Westminster. During her tenure, she founded and organized a program for housing the homeless which helped more than 100 people.
In 1996, she moved to Hillsboro, Oregon and joined the Hillsboro Presbyterian Church where she served as deacon for two years. She also taught Sunday school since she was 18 years old at various churches. Masel was also an active member of the Red Hat Society.
Masel's life will be celebrated in a memorial service at the Hillsboro Presbyterian Church April 26 at 4:00 pm. Donations may be made to the Hillsboro Presbyterian Church Member's Needs Fund.
Any comments left here will be deeply appreciated.

This is a guest blog post by Alyssa Studer, a Velocity program facilitator for Summer 2016. In the Velocity program, a group of 20 high school students form a consulting company, and work with an industry client to develop a solution to a real-world problem. The group of students Alyssa just worked with developed a web application to help WP Engine track the health of their servers.
Self-motivated, hardworking, enthusiastic, and collaborative. These are all adjectives that describe the incredible group of students I was fortunate to work with over the past four weeks at Hays High School. I have been teaching high school chemistry for the past two years. Although I am still very new to the field, I have yet to encounter a group of students like the group I just finished working with. Their ability to problem solve, work collaboratively, and teach themselves skills necessary for the greater good of their project, was something I have yet to witness in students their age. What amazed me the most about this particular group of students was their ability to get to know one another's strengths and weaknesses so quickly and then in knowing this information, integrate each student's strengths into the project where the group as a whole would benefit the most. I think the incredible amount of learning and great success each student achieved during this four-week internship is testimony to the benefits of a project-based learning environment for students.
Observing these students for four weeks (because really I did not have to do as much facilitating as I had anticipated) has been a true learning experience for me; a learning experience that will help me in improving my teaching abilities in the classroom next year as I continue teaching STEM courses at the high school level. Furthermore, having the opportunity to finally take part in a completely immersive project-based learning setting has inspired me to integrate project-based learning components into my own classroom more frequently.
If you're interested in getting involved with our Velocity program, email us at email@example.com. And stay tuned throughout the summer for more updates on Velocity projects!

If you're watching a video today on Facebook you will be part of Facebook's new plan to rule video. As video watchers spend more time on that than they do reading a regular post video will now get more 'credit' based on a new change to the Facecbook algorithm.
Facebook wants to beat YouTube in the attention stakes by declaring this week that it is becoming the "best place to share, discover, and watch videos". It needs a lot of high-quality, original content to do this.
Any video that is popular will be show it to more people in the news feed.
Messaging app Snapchat, a Facebook rival, is ramping up sales of video ads for its new Discover platform. Same goes for Twitter, which owns two hot video properties, Vine and Periscope. Spotify recently added video-streaming capabilities to its music-streaming app, partnering with just about every big name in digital-video content…By this time next year, any one of them might have conjured up a 4-billion-view-a-day video product themselves.
Posting a copy of your video directly on your Facebook Company Page, rather than posting to YouTube or Vimeo and then linking it is the most important tactic for business owners. Statistics have proven that native videos get much more engagement than linked ones.
Businesses should also remember that your Facebook videos by reminding viewers to call your office or visit you on the Web; include relevant contact information printed right there on the screen.
And finally, YouTube first strategy is still critical for brands. The reach and sharing capabilities and discoverability benefits stretch beyond just Facebook to the wider web leaving YouTube to be the dominant player in video.

News East-West
NEW DELHI: After the militaries of India and Pakistan agreed not to violate the 10-year-old ceasefire after the tragic events of the past 10 days, normalcy seems to have returned to the Line of Control (LoC) at least for the time being.
The Director General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of the two countries agreed to maintain the ceasefire after the killings and counter-killings of soldiers by the two sides over the past 10 days.
An Indian army statement said in Delhi, "The Director General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of India and Pakistan Wednesday had agreed not to violate the ceasefire and exercise maximum restraint.''
The tit-for-tat killings began after the January 6 killing of a Pakistani soldier by the Indian army. On Jan 8, Pakistanis killed and mutilated the bodies of two Indian soldiers, including the beheading of one of them.
India responded to the ghastly crime against the Geneva convention by ordering a tit-for-tat response along the Line of Control (LoC).
"I have given very categorical directions to the Northern Command. When we are provoked, we shall respond immediately. I expect my commanders to be aggressive in the face of firing. We will retaliate to Pakistan's attack at a place and time of our choosing," said Indian army chief Gen Bikram Singh.
On Wednesday, the army chief met the family of Lance Naik Hemraj – who was beheaded by the Pakistanis after his killing – at Shernagar village near Mathura in Uttar Pradesh.
Even as Pakistani foreign minister Hina Rabbani Khar offered India to hold talks between foreign ministers over LoC violations, India remained adamant on Wednesday, insisting that those who brutalized the bodies of the two Indian soldiers be brought to book.

Scott Stearns interviews Aung San Suu Kyi at VOA in Washington D.C.
"Most of them are not going to make it." That was the thought that ran through Animesh Ray's mind 15 years ago, as he watched excellent PhD students — including some at his own institution, the University of Rochester in New York — struggle to find faculty positions in academia, the only jobs they had ever been trained for. Some were destined for perpetual postdoctoral fellowships; others would leave science altogether.
Michael Gove is rightly impressed with Pacific Asia's education system. But he should remember they're learning from us too.
As part of a seismic shift in online learning that is reshaping higher education, Coursera, a year-old company founded by two Stanford University computer scientists, will announce on Tuesday that a dozen major research universities are joining the venture. In the fall, Coursera will offer 100 or more free massive open online courses, or MOOCs, that are expected to draw millions of students and adult learners globally.
Last fall the High-Level Plenary Meeting of the UN General Assembly brought together more than 170 heads of state—"the largest gathering of world leaders in history"—to review progress toward the Millennium Development Goals. It was, we were told, "a once-in-a-generation opportunity to take bold decisions," a "defining moment in history" when "we must be ambitious."
