Travel Considerations for Students and Parents
Over the past three years of Sternberg Science Camps, we've had many excellent middle and high school students join us from outside of Kansas. From California to Maine, Oklahoma to Michigan, we are proud to have become a destination for top science students from across the country.
We've had a lot of questions from students and their parents about traveling to Hays for our camps programs. We've put together a list of common questions and answers here to help you plan your student's travel. Of course, you are always welcome to directly contact our Education Director David Levering at email@example.com, or 785-639-5249 with questions about the camp programs and travel for attendance. We have also added some information regarding travel for international programs.
Q: My student is interested in attending one of your residential camp programs. We would like to fly in the day before the camp starts. Which airport should we use?
: The Sternberg Museum is in Hays, Kansas, which has a small airport with flights to and from Denver International Airport twice a day. This would be the easiest choice for getting yourself to Hays. Once here, there are cab services available to take you to a hotel. There are also two rental car agencies in Hays (Enterprise and Hertz), which are a good option if you are looking to do some additional exploring around Hays after you arrive.
We have also had parents fly in with their student to the Wichita airport, and use a rental car to drive in from Hays. Depending on where you are coming from, this may be a less expensive option to consider.
Q: My student needs to arrive before the start of camp to make the flights work. Will someone be able to pick them up at the Hays airport? Are there accommodations they can stay at overnight?
: We are happy to arrange for pickup of students traveling solo to Hays for one of our camps programs. The student will be picked up by their camp instructor or TA, or another member of the Sternberg Museum full time staff.
Students arriving early can use the Fort Hays State University dormitories prior to the start of their camp program. We do charge a $50 per-night fee for use of the dorms prior to the start of camp. They will be picked up early on the morning their camp program begins, and transported with their gear to the Sternberg Museum to meet the rest of the students and instructional staff for departure.
Any students under the age of 18 are required to fill out and return an unaccompanied minor form from the FHSU dormitories in advance of their arrival. If you make arrangements with the Education Director for your student to arrive early, they will provide a copy of this form to you.
Q: I am planning on having my student fly to Hays alone. Will this be a problem?
: It is absolutely not a problem for the Museum staff to have students fly in alone. Keep in mind that students under 18 flying without a parent may be subject to an unaccompanied minor fee by the airline. Be sure to check with the airline you are using prior to your student's departure, and plan accordingly.
Q: Is it alright for me to drive down with my student, drop them off the morning camp starts, and then check out the Museum after the students and staff depart?
: Yes, absolutely. There are plenty of hotels here in Hays to choose from if you arrive the day before the camp program starts. You are also more than welcome to explore the Museum after dropping your student off. The instructor or TA can get you cleared by the front desk staff.
Q: My student needs to depart the camp early to make a flight. Will this be a problem?
: No, this is not a problem. We can provide transport to the Hays airport for their flight, or make sure your student is at the Museum with their gear at the pre-arranged early pickup time. Early departures tend to be very case-by-case, depending on the travel requirements and the camp being participated in. Please communicate in advance with the Education Director regarding any early departure arrangements that need to be made.
Q: Whoa! You are doing international programs now? My student would love to attend, but we don't live in Kansas. Help!
: For travel logistics questions regarding our new
international expedition programs
for high school students, please directly contact our Education Director at email@example.com. They will be able to make recommendations specific to your travel situation. We have also included some travel details on the program page, which you can explore

Walking To The British Isles
St Mary's Island Looking at the global map you see quite clearly the shape of Great Britain, consisting of the majority of England, Scotland and Wales. That is the name of the big large recognisable island. However did you know that the British Isles consists of over 6000 Islands. Out of shore all around are land masses ranging from the larger likes of Anglesey and Isle of Wight to tiny rocky islands and yes, thousands of them. At the bottom of this post is a clever video that very quickly does explain the difference between United Kingdom, Britain, British...Read More

UP Lokayukta gives clean chit to Mayawati in Noida farmhouse scam
Uttar Pradesh lokayukta justice (retired) NK Mehrotra gave a clean chit to former UP chief minister Mayawati in the Noida farmhouse scam, saying the accusation of wrongdoing wasn't supported by credible evidence.lucknow Updated: Nov 12, 2013 20:00 IST
Uttar Pradesh lokayukta justice (retired) NK Mehrotra gave a clean chit to former UP chief minister Mayawati in the Noida farmhouse scam, saying the accusation of wrongdoing wasn't supported by credible evidence.
However, he urged the state government to access documents of people who were allotted farmhouses and check for misrepresentation of facts. The lokayukta found no role of the CM in the allotment process.
In 2009, authorities had invited applications for farmhouse allotment in Noida. Out of the 302 applications received, only 152 were successful; Mayawati's sister-in-law was among the beneficiaries.
The lokayukta report says the Noida authority didn't suffer any financial loss, and that the farmhouses weren't sold to earn a profit. A loss of R300 crores had been alleged previously.
"No rules or regulation has been allotted by Noida authority for allotment of land or farmhouses. Instead, since 1983, applicants are called for an interview and the discretion of the allotment committee is final. The committee can allot more than one farmhouse or plot of land to an applicant," Mehrotra told HT.
Officers who allotted the farmhouses have also been cleared. "Mere accusation was leveled against the officers" Mehrotra said "when I told them to give evidence they failed to respond".
The authority was free to use the land for any commercial activity, Mehrotra added.
The Samajwadi Party government directed then Noida development authority chairman Rakesh Bahadur to conduct an enquiry on May 16, 2012. After receiving Bahadur's report, the enquiry was referred to the lokayukta. Neither Rakesh Bahadur nor then CEO Noida, Sanjiv Saran produced any evidence to support the accusation of irregularity, Mehrotra said.
The lokayukta has recommended framing of new regulations for allotment of land or house in Noida and checking discretionary powers of allotment committees. "There is also hope for the 150 applicants who couldn't get farmhouses. I have urged the state government to permit them to make a fresh representation and the eligible ones can be considered," Mehrotra said.
A senior state government officer said action will be taken against officers if it was found that the allocation of farmhouses was done on the basis of false documents.

About Me
Sustianability, peace and tango
Have to figure that one out someday... I guess I try practice a philosophy of "integration", where whatever rests the shadows should be allowed to bee seen, recognized and felt - inside as well as outside (in relations and society)
And sometimes, well, you just need to freak out.
Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am new to the couchsurfing concept, but find it very appealing. As I am bored of travels with sparse or no contact with locals, this is what is needed to make real connections, new friends and intercultural understandning.
Tango in Berlin, coffe in Copenhagen, looking forward to...? The next experience!
Outdoor sports (hiking, mountains, mainly)
Sailing (give me sea, sunshine and wind in the sails)
Yoga and meditation (it's simply nescesarry for me to do)
Tango (pure passion - taking the steps into the world og polarity, passion and precense)
- tango
- yoga
- meditation
- clubbing
- politics
- outdoor activities
- hiking
- sailing
- sports
- archeology
- mountains
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: A lot of different stuff, from classical, jazz, rock to metal if the mood is right. So, it depends, always eager to listen to new music.
Movies: I would like to say "art-movies", you know the original and not very known ones, but really, I get hooked by a the story, sometimes even though it is bad... But I enjoy movies which surprises me or leaves me thoughtfull and emotionally touched, pictures an acting are a strong language and can really influece the mind
Books: Right now I am reading Salman Rushdie... Lot of different interests. Maybe I have a weakness for well researched historical fictions and magical realism.
Teach, Learn, Share
Danish politics anyone?
Sailing - I have to get a "licence" from the club, but I guess I would be able to take you out on the seaside of Copenhagen next spring.
And by that time, tango would also be at my list, but for now, all I can do is to take you to the right places.
Yoga - well, not me personally, but I can show you a great school. Like to discuss more philosophical aspects of yoga and meditation though.
Or maybe a tour at the arhcelogical collection of the national museum. Studied archaelogy some years ago - I am a bit rusty, but I guess I can give you the main points of danish prehistory
Countries I've Visited
France, Germany, Ghana, India, Israel, Jordan, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, United States
Countries I've Lived In

FS.net's Whirlwind Film Festival Tour Begins Today!
by Alex Billington
August 28, 2008
We're off on yet another incredible adventure! I'm currently on my way to Telluride, Colorado for the 35th Telluride Film Festival, which will kick off a 27 day worldwide film festival extravaganza. I'm traveling with Peter from SlashFilm to Telluride then the Toronto Film Festival in September and eventually the Fantastic Fest in Austin, Texas to wrap it all up. I'm excited but also a bit weary, considering I'm about to be on the road for a total of 27 days. Either way, we're getting ready to bring you some of the best coverage from these three fests you'll see anywhere and are putting together interviews, reviews and so much more. Don't worry, we'll be bringing you all of our regular news as well as extensive festival coverage. So if you're not excited for the Oscar season yet, you will be as we start to head into September!
I've already coordinated a few interviews with the likes of Guy Ritchie and Ed Harris and are working on Darren Aronofsky, Steven Soderbergh and even Ed Norton, so stay tuned. As for the movies I'm hoping to see, I can't give you a full list because it would be upwards of around 40 to 50 movies, but there are a lot of good ones that will be showing at all three of the fests – check their individual websites for full lists. Some of them I'm looking forward to the most are the Coen Brothers' Burn After Reading, Soderbergh's Che, The Good The Bad and The Weird, Darren Aronofsky's The Wrestler and Charlie Kaufman's Synecdoche, New York. It's been a long summer but now it's time to shift our focus from the big blockbusters to the independent films and Oscar contenders. See you around the world!

Document 2:
Document 1: Political cartoon satirizing slavery
Passage from, "Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass"
"only to my knees. I had no bed. I must have perished with cold, but that, the coldest nights, I used to steal a bag which was used for carrying corn to the mill. I would crawl into this bag, and there sleep on the cold, damp, clay floor, with my head in and feet out. My feet have been so cracked with the frost, that the pen with which I am writing might be laid in the gashes. We were not regularly allowanced. Our food was coarse corn meal boiled. This was called mush. It was put into a large wooden tray or trough, and set down upon the ground. The children were then called, like so many pigs, and like so many pigs they would come and devour the mush; some with oystershells, others with pieces of shingle, some with naked hands, and none with spoons. He that ate fastest got most; he that was strongest secured the best place; and few left the trough satisfied"
Document 3: Excerpt from Karl Marx's
"As soon as people, whose production still moves within the lower forms of slave-labor, courvee labor, etc., are drawn into the whirlpool of an international market dominated by the capitalistic mode of production, the sale of their products for export becoming their principal interest, the civilized horrors of over-work are grafted on the barbaric horrors of slavery, serfdom, etc. Hence the Negro labor in the Southern States of the American Union preserved something of a patriarchal character, so long as production was chiefly direced to immediate local consumption. But in proportion, as the export of cotton became of vital interest to these states, the over-working of the Negro and sometimes the using up of his life in 7 years' of labor became a factor in a calculated and calculating system. It was no longer a question of obtaining from him a certain quantity of useful products. It was now a questn of production of surplus-labor itself"
• Thomas Clarkson became an abolitionist after he was given this prompt for a Latin essay competition in 1785: "anne liceat invitos inservitutem dare"→ "Is it lawful to make slaves of others against their will?"
• Started researching slavery, and discovered horrors of transatlantic trade. Essay covering the slave trade and won first prize at University of Cambridge
• Co-founded Committtee for the Abolition of the Slave Trade, collected evidence and created visual charts like "The Middle Passage" to gain supporters for William Wilberforce's campaign against slavery (to present to parliament)
• Parliament passes Slave Trade Act in 1807, and passes the Slavery Abolition Act in 1833
• Clarkson's discovery of worsening conditions of slavery, such as those on the Middle Passage, prompted him to be an abolitionist (International)
• Once British Empire abolished slavery, Clarkson moved his focus towards America
from Karl Marx's book Captial, written in 1867. Although it is written after 1860, he is reflecting on the time period of slavery in America, including 1820-1860. He witnessed and was alive during that time period in Germany, providing a primary international perspective
relevant to the prompt because it not only shows an international perspective on slavery in America, but also how the change in the conditions of slavery in America fomented a negative view of slavery in America internationally
Marx writes how production boom Capitalism provided lead to the worsening of the conditions of slaves in America. He writes how slavery has gone from the necessary hierarchy that sustains the world to "surplus labor."
Fredrick Douglass was a ex-slave who became a free African Abolitionist in the North
In the passage, Douglass shows the cruel conditions that slaves endured under the rule of their masters
Douglass showed the true cruelties of slavery through out his narrative
Abolitionists who read the book would start using his writing and depictions to get people of the North to foment movements against slavery.
Document 4: Excerpt from Speech by Abolitionist Maria Stewart
"I have heard much respecting the horrors of slavery; but may Heaven forbid that the generality of my color throughout these United States should experience any more of its horrors than to be a servant of servants, or hewers of wood and drawers of water [Joshua 9:23]! Tell us no more of southern slavery; for with few exceptions, although I may be very erroneous in my opinion, yet I consider our position but little better than that. Yet, after all, methinks there are no chains so galling as those that bind the soul, and exclude it from the vast field of useful and scientific knowledge."
delivered from abolitionist Maria Stewart on September 21, 1832. Stewart was a free black woman who devoted her life to speaking out against slavery.
purpose was to share her abolitionist ideas with the public, hoping getting some new followers in the abolitionist movement
It is relevant to the prompt because she speaks of how horrible the conditions of slavery are, saying "I have heard much respecting the horrors of slavery but may Heaven forbid that the generality of my color throughout these United States should experience any more of its horrors than to be a servant of servants."
This demonstrates how the conditions of slavery are in part why she is an abolitionist. This covers the part of the prompt which asks about how the conditions of slavery fomented an abolitionist movement.
first slaves were imported to Jamestown, Virginia in 1619.
By the 1700s, most colonies had recognized slavery as a legal institution, allowing slavery in America to thrive. During most of the British colonial period, slavery existed in all the colonies.
People enslaved in the North typically worked as house servants, artisans, laborers and craftsmen, with the greater number in cities
The South depended on an agricultural economy, and it had a significantly higher number and proportion of slaves in the population, as its commodity crops were labor intensive. Early on, slaves in the South worked primarily in agriculture, on farms and plantations growing indigo, rice, and tobacco; cotton became a major crop after the 1790s
Hierarchy has always been a condition of slavery
chattel slavery originated in the Americas
• William Lloyd Garrison: one of the most influential anti-slavery activists of America's antebellum era (publisher of The Liberator)
• As debates around slavery heated up, abolitionists like Garrison begin to use every-day pop culture to get their anti-slavery points across to the public
• Wrote an abolitionist song to the tune of "Auld Lange Syne"
• Explicitly attacks religious justification for slavery in his lyrics

Slaves were constantly whipped, overworked, and underfed
Common punishments for slaves were shackling, hanging, beating, burning, mutilation, branding, and imprisonment. Punishment was most often meted in response to disobedience or perceived infractions, but sometimes abuse was carried out simply to re-assert the dominance of the master or overseer over the slave.
slaves had no education of any sorts, for their masters feared that by reading, slaves would have the opportunity to obtain rebellious ideas.
Slaves were often under supplied with food and clothing as well.
Throughout the 19th century, many anti-slavery societies were formed, the vast majority of the in the North. Some examples are the Pennsylvania Abolition Society, the New York Manumission Society and the American Colonization Society.
Many abolitionists from countries around the world heard about the terrible things
slaves in America were going through—the conditions of
slavery—and wanted to help.
The idea of abolition was present in the North since the very beginning of Slavery in America.
But, the abolitionist movement really stated to pick up when more people found out about the injustices and horrors slaves went through, and started to speak out against it.

Document 3: Nat Turner's Rebellion
Nat Turner's Rebellion: 1831. Northerners could finally see anger in the South
Dred Scott: 1857. Supreme Court ruling that slavery is legal everywhere, and that all African Americans, according to Declaration of Independence, are not citizens
Nat Turner's Rebellion in 1831
Nat Turner was a slave in Virginia who led the rebellion with a crew of 56 other African Americans in 1831
The cause of the rebellion was anger stirred up in the slaves towards their master
Resulted in around 50 white deaths and 200 black deaths
South turned this even around in favor for their argument, saying slaves are dangerous and should be kept in order with slavery
from the Anti-slavery Almanac for 1840 by the American Anti-Slavery Society
point of this cartoon was to satirize the justification of slavery that plantations were just like one big family, where the plantation owners love and care for their slaves like children
Similarly, the cartoon ridicules the Justification of slavery that slaves were innately childlike and needed to be taken care of
On the contrary, the slaves in the picture look like they are hard at work, bearing their responsibilities
shows the paternalism justification of slavery that slaves were innately childlike and needed to be watched over by the whites

Leivonmäki National Park in municipality of Joutsa.
One third of the total land area in Finland was originally covered by mires, but their use has been so intensive that less than one third of the original mire area is today in a natural state. In Finland the ecological and regional diversity of mires is higher than in any other region equal size in the world.
A rapidly expanding forest drainage in the 1960's was a reason to start the work to save at least part of the Finnish mires. First mire conservation plans were completed at that time, including Haapasuo Mire, which was taken in mire conservation in 1980. In 1991 was established a Haapasuo-Syysniemi nature reserve area and in 2003 Leivonmäki National Park.
In Leivonmäki National Park you can experience the diversity of natural features of Central Finland Region. Characteristic for the park are mires, lakes, shores and esker forests. In a relatively small area (30 sq.km), there are valuable natural features in a diverse landscape. Especially protected areas are the large Haapasuo Mire, which is in its' natural state, and the esker formation running through the area. The National Park is very important in conserving threatened animal and plant species and so being very useful for study and research.
In the wilderness-like landscape of Leivonmäki National Park, the hiking trails and duckboards are ideal for day trips, because of their suitable length (2-7 km) and because they are not too demanding. There are several campfire places in the area, some of which have shelters. The camping sites and lean-to shelters attract visitors to stay overnight in the National Park. The area is managed by Metsähallitus.

Ensure your privacy and safety on the Internet
Hiding your internet activity
When you visit a website, some information may be saved on your computer, by your browser or your search engine. If you want to make sure that the wrong people don't know that you have visited this website, or any other website related to domestic violence and abuse, here is some advice on how to cover your tracks.
The first thing you need to figure out is the type of browser that you are using to make your internet search. If you do not have this information, you can find out by clicking on "Help" or "?" in the toolbar on top of your screen. A list of options should appear, including one stating "About Firefox" or "About Google Chrome", "About Internet Explorer", or whatever your browser's name is. See the example below: the browser used is Mozilla Firefox.
Once you have this information, follow the instructions below.
With Mozilla Firefox
In the toolbar, click on History, then Clear Recent History.
Alternatively, press down keys Ctrl and H on your keyborad simultaneously.
The following window should appear:
Tick all the boxes, then select the relevant period of time you want to clear the history of, and click on the button titled "Clear Now".
With Google Chrome
Copy and paste the following address in your address bar: chrome://settings/clearBrowserData
(If you can't figure which one's the address bar, just press F6 ; that should take you right to it.)
Alternatively, you may press down on Ctrl and H keys on your keyborad. You can also click on the following button (top right of your screen) and then select History in the list:
Then click on Clear browsing data:
The following screen should appear:
Tick all boxes, select the relevant period of time that you would want to clear the history of, and click on the "Clear Browsing Data" button.
With Internet Explorer
Press down on Ctrl, shift and H keys on your keyboard simultaneously. A sidebar should appear, displaying all the addresses you have visited. Find any entries that say http://chayn.org/, right click on them and choose "Delete". Do the same for every other website related to domestic violence that you have been visiting.
With Netscape
In the toolbar, select Tools, and then click on Clear Private Data.
The following window should appear:
Tick all boxes and click on the "Clear Private Data Now" button.
With the method described above, it is not possible to choose the time period you want to erase the date from. If you do not wish to erase all of your browser history, you can choose this alternative method:
Press down the keys Ctrl and H on your keyboard simultaneously. The following sidebar should appear:
Find any entries that say http://chayn.org/, right click and choose "Delete:. Do the same for every other website related to domestic violence that you have been visiting.
With Opera
Press down on Ctrl, Shift and H keys on your keyboard simultaneously. A new window should appear, displaying all the web addresses you have visited. Find any entries that say http://chayn.org/, right click and then click on the "Delete" button on top of the page. Do the same for every other website related to domestic violence that you have been visiting.
Private Browsing
You can also cover your tracks beforehand by activating the "Private" mode before you start using the internet. This mode may be particularly useful if you have reason to believe you might be interrupted in your browsing or may not have time to go back and delete your history afterwards. Here is how to activate it:
Firefox: press down Ctrl, Shift and P keys on your keyboard simultaneously.
Google Chrome: press down Ctrl, Shift and N keys on your keyboard simultaneously.
Internet Explorer 8 and 9 (older versions do not have a "Private" mode): Press down Ctrl, Shift and P keys on your keyboard simultaneously.
Opera: press down Ctrl, Shift and N keys on your keyboard simultaneously.
Using both the "Private" mode and the history deleting techniques explained above might be a good idea to make sure your tracks are effectively covered.
Toolbars such as Google, AOL and Yahoo keep a record of the search words you have typed into the toolbar search box. In order to erase all the search words you have typed in, you will need to check the individual instructions for each type of toolbar. For example, for the Google toolbar all you need to do is click on the Google icon, and choose "Clear Search History".
Keeping your e-mails private
When you send and receive e-mails from other people, your correspondence is always saved either in your inbox, sent mail, draft folder, or even discarded mail folder. Sometimes, some e-mails are considered by your service provider as junk mail and sent automatically to a dedicated folder. This means several things for you. First of all, it means that if an abuser sends you threatening or harassing e-mail messages, you can come back to these messages later, even print them and use them as evidence of this abuse.
On the other hand, it also means that you need to be careful with your e-mail box. For instance, if you think your abuser or someone you know may gain access to your e-mail box without your consent, then you need to get rid of the messages you think may compromise you if they are to be found by the wrong people. This means not only deleting them from you Inbox or Sent messages box, but also from your Discarded box (which could also be called Deleted or Trash depending on which program you use).
Most service providers (Outlook, Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo etc…) have support pages that explain how to properly discard a message, and make sure it cannot be recovered in the future. If you have any reason to believe your abuser or someone else may be able to gain access to your e-mail without your consent, we strongly advise that you refer to those support pages in order to learn the proper procedure to ensure deletion.
Information above may not completely hide your tracks. The safest way to find information on the internet is to use a computer that your abuser is unlikely to use himself: at a local library, a friend's house, or at work.
Some people may use the Internet and its anonymity as a way to commit another kind of abuse, called cyber-stalking.
It is difficult to define cyber-stalking because it can occur in many forms. As technology evolves, so does the practice of cyber-stalking. A web-savvy stalker can wreak havoc on the online life of a victim. This can be incredibly damaging, increasingly more so as a growing number of people use the Internet to pay bills, make friends, date, work, share ideas and find jobs.
Some examples of tactics a cyber-stalker may employ include:
Sending manipulative, threatening, lewd or harassing emails from a variety of email accounts.
Hacking into a victim's online accounts (such as banking or email) and changing the victim's settings and passwords.
Creating false online accounts on social networking and dating sites, impersonating the victim or attempting to establish contact with the victim by using a false persona.
Posting messages to online bulletin boards and discussion groups with the victim's personal information, such as home address, phone number or Social Security number. Posts may also be lewd or controversial – and result in the victim receiving numerous emails, calls or visits from people who read such a post online.
Signing up for numerous online mailing lists and services using a victim's name and email address.
Cyber-stalking is difficult to combat because the stalker could be in another country, state/province or city; or sitting three cubicles away from the victim. In the anonymous world of the Internet, it is difficult to verify a stalker's identity, collect the necessary evidence for an arrest and then trace the cyber-stalker to a physical location.
For a list of state cyber-stalking laws, see the National Conference of State Legislature's State Electronic Harassment or "Cyber-stalking" Laws .(Shouldn't there be something on online crimes laws in Pakistan. Far as I know, there's cyber crimes laws in Pakistan which were passed in 2007)
If you are a victim of cyber-stalking, try to gather as much physical evidence as possible and document each contact. For more information and tips, visit the National Center for Victims of Crimes webpage: If You Are a Victim of Cyber-stalking. (Shouldn't there be a link to a similar page on Chayn? With tips, I mean.)
The fact that cyber-stalking doesn't involve physical contact doesn't mean it is any less dangerous than "real life" stalking. It's not difficult for an experienced Internet user to find enough of the victim's personal information, such as phone number or place of business, to establish his or her physical location.
Social networking, through websites such as Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Meetup and LinkedIn, present security issues for victims of stalking. A profile on a social network might include information such as your email address, phone number, general (or even specific) address information, birthday, legal name, names of family members, and even minute-to-minute updates on your location.
If a victim has a public profile, a stalker could easily access any information posted to the social networking account. Even with strong privacy settings or a private profile, a stalker might be able to access your account. A few of the ways this can be accomplished include:
Hacking your account.
Creating a false profile and sending a "friend request" or "follow request." The request may even appear to be from a known friend or family member. Verify with your friends and family members that they own the account before accepting the request.
Gaining access to the accounts of your already-established connections (such as Facebook friends or Twitter followers).
If you are a victim of stalking, consider suspending your social networking accounts until the stalking has been resolved. If you decide to continue to use social networking sites, here are a few tips to help keep you safe:
Take advantage of privacy settings. With some social networking sites, you may be able to make your profile completely private simply by checking a box. With others, such as Facebook, privacy settings can be complex to navigate.
Take advantage of added security settings. One of the best examples is two-factor authentication. When you enable this, your account will require you to provide something you know (like a password) with something you have (like a specific device). Therefore, if someone gets your password he or she will not be able to log in to the account without the specific code that the service sends to your device. Lifehacker has an article titled "Here's Everywhere You Should Enable Two-Factor Authentication Right Now" that lists specific sites offering two-factor authentication (note that the article is from August 2012 and that you should not consider the list complete).
Limit how much personal information you post to your account. For example, you may not want to include contact information, your birth date, the city you were born in or names of family members.
Do not accept "friend requests" (or "follow requests") from strangers. If you recognize the individual sending the request, contact him or her off-line to verify he or she sent the request.
Warn your friends and acquaintances not to post personal information about you, especially your contact information and location.
Avoid online polls or quizzes, particularly those that ask for personal information.
Don't post photographs of your home that might indicate its location. For example, don't post photographs showing a house number or an identifying landmark in the background.
Use caution when joining online organizations, groups or "fan pages." Never publicly RSVP to events shown online.
Use caution when connecting your cell phone to your social networking account. If you do decide to connect your cell phone to your online account, use extreme caution in providing live updates on your location or activities.
Avoid posting information about your current or future locations, or providing information a stalker may later use to zero in on your location, such as a review of a restaurant near your house.
Always use a strong, unique password for every social networking site. Read our 10 Rules for Creating a Hacker-Resistant Password.
Final tip: remember, you most likely will not know if your stalker has accessed your online social networking account. Only post information that would not expose you to harm if your stalker should read it.
The reality is that both cyber-stalking and physical stalking can lead to a physical attack. Always get help quickly, document all stalking incidents and take precautions to protect yourself.
To comply with the order of a man with dignity can use tracking tools, it will help him to identify fraud. catch a cheating spouse has always been a matter of strong vanym husband.

This post was sponsored by Great Homeschool Conventions.
Use the Children's Programming
First of all, I should mention that the younger children went into the children's program during the main portion of the day, joining us for meals. It is extremely helpful when a convention hosts children and Great Homeschool Convention does an excellent job of providing for the children so parents can enjoy all of the teaching and shopping. This was our *first* experience with a children's program and I was very impressed.
Divide and Conquer
My husband and I looked at all the sessions before we arrived, and for the most part we chose to split up to "divide and conquer." We would each attend different sessions and then during meals and open time we would get together and discuss all we had learned.
While we were in sessions ourselves, our teens were also in sessions specifically designed for them so during meals we would also discuss what they were learning. The teen track was a wonderful world-view conference and they had so much fun having this independence and getting relevant information.
Shop with Purpose
Before we arrived at the convention, my husband and I went through the exhibitor list and made our own list of "must-see" vendors to meet with. We also made a list of everything we would need for that year, so if something unexpected caught our eye we knew ahead of time if it was something we needed. And finally, we agreed on a baseline spending budget which would be flexible if we saw any amazing deals.
That doesn't mean we didn't browse the vendor hall. We both went through it all together once. I browsed and chatted with various vendors more than once – because – I love SHOPPING! In the evenings I would chat with my husband about some of the various things I saw and we would make decisions. And then at the end of the conference we made final purchase decisions and went in for a strategic shopping strike. If you plan to use this method, just be sure you get back to the exhibitor hall before vendors start to pack up.
Dress Comfortably and Wear Good Shoes
I'm not saying be sloppy or anything, but you are definitely going to be doing some walking and enjoying long days learning, shopping, fellowshipping, and being entertained. It's gonna be good to be comfortable.
Bring a Rolling Cart
This is one of those things that I often forget, but my husband actually bought our first rolling cart when we were at the Great Homeschool Convention in Long Beach. It's super handy to have in the exhibitor hall unless you do not plan to shop.
I'm super excited this year to attend the Great Homeschool Convention happening in Cincinnati, Ohio in April of 2017. My teens and I will be attending together again and I am looking forward to my youngest teen being able to enjoy the teen track for the first time! Also, we are super excited to be attending all of the special extra events this time!

Holocaust survivor Dr. Inge Auerbacher will give an account of her time spent in a concentration camp beginning as a 7-year-old child. She spent the worst years of her life surviving as best she could with her family in the cruelest of conditions. Her story helps us to "Never Forget."

Andrew Peterson
Coming to all four 2017 GHC events!
Christian homeschooling dad and musician Andrew Peterson will perform on Thursday evening and lead a very special workshop session on Friday morning! As a musician in Nashville, he has "been about the business of quietly changing lives in four-minute increments." Join us for an evening enjoying Andrew's music, as well as his special Friday morning session!
Nick Vujicic
Coming to Texas and California events!
We are very honored to also welcome Nick Vujicic! Born without arms or legs, Nick has chosen to be "better instead of bitter." He will deliver an inspirational and compelling testimony about his determination to enjoy the life and purpose God has given him.
Michael Franzese
Coming to all four 2017 events!
Michael Franzese, former mobster with the feared Colombo crime family, will give his testimony as a born-again Christian. This session is described by past listeners as "…open and honest…fresh and unique. Audiences are captivated by stories of his personal experiences in organized crime and genuinely affected by his powerful anti-crime messages and eye-opening revelations."
Mike Berenstain
Coming to the MidWest event!
Stan and Jan Berenstain introduced the first Berenstain Bear books in 1962. Mike Berenstain grew up watching his parents work together to write about and draw these lovable bears. Eventually he started drawing and writing about them too. Though Stan died in 2005, and Jan in 2012, Mike continues to create the delightful Bear adventures from his studio in Pennsylvania, in an area that looks much like the sunny dirt road deep in Bear Country.
Bob Smiley
Coming to the SouthEast, MidWest, and California events!
Many moons ago—before the invention of Ritalin or the Internet—a young, broke college student named Roberto Antonio Smiley (Bob) signed up for a stand-up competition at his Student Union Building. The prize money was $500, which was nearly 5 months rent for the "efficiency" closet Smiley was living in at the time. Though he had never stepped on a stage, and the only prior laughs he had gotten were due to his colossal leprechaun ears, he went for the gold. When he arrived, his only competition was a grown man wearing an oversized sombrero with no act…so…he won the money and the tender hearts of his fellow students. The rest is history.
John Crist
Coming to the MidWest event!
John Crist continues to gain momentum as one of America's young rising stars of comedy. Crist's style of edgy but clean comedy keeps him on the road for a whirlwind schedule of over 250 live shows per year.
When asked how he finds the inspiration to write jokes, Crist says, "Shoot, I grew up in the south. My dad is a pastor, and I was the third of eight homeschooled children. Coming from a background like that, how do you not write jokes?!"
FREE Gifts to all that register at Great Homeschool Conventions in 2017
As an additional benefit, those who register for the convention receive the following:
- A free Andrew Peterson album download (8 songs, a $7.99 value!)
- Free streaming access ($59 value) to all twelve episodes of "Ancient History" as well as "The Gospels" (episode 1) from our friends at DriveThru History. (Don't wait though—the free access to these awesome history episodes is available only until October 1, 2017.)
- A free download of The Berenstain Bears Say Their Prayers e-book by Mike Berenstain (a $1.99 value) E-book offer is from the publisher, Zondervan.
- A free download of Focus on the Family audio recording: Bonhoeffer: The Cost of Freedom ($9.99 value)
- A free download of Adventures in Odyssey episode of Amazing Grace ($1.99 value)
I was so overwhelmed as this is my first year homeschooling. I walked away with a greater sense of confidence and direction.
My husband got the encouragement he needed to be a part of our homeschool experience.
The quality and variety of speakers is what sets this convention apart from others.
Definitely the place to go to get answers to any questions you may have about curriculum.

Go! It's worth every minute and every penny!

Mining trip: Necessary or junket?
Some Haines Borough officials are questioning whether the borough is spending its time and money wisely by sending three public officials to a Canadian mineral exploration conference.
Borough Manager Mark Earnest, executive assistant to the manager Darsie Culbeck and assembly member Steve Vick are scheduled to travel to Vancouver, B.C., Jan. 28-31 for the Mineral Exploration Roundup conference.
Assembly member Debra Schnabel and Mayor Stephanie Scott have expressed reservations about the usefulness of sending borough officials – especially three – to the conference this year.
Last year, Schnabel and Culbeck attended Roundup, an annual trade show attended by government officials, organizations, and mining companies. Attendees gather information about the mineral development and mining industries, observe technical demonstrations, and make business contacts.
During their 2012 trip, Schnabel and Culbeck gave a PowerPoint presentation describing the attributes of the Lutak Dock, such as its location and potential as a deep-water port.
They also gathered information on prospective mineral developments in the Yukon, what transportation systems potential developers would use, and what kind of ports mining industries normally go for. Using information gathered from the trip, the borough decided to contract with Northern Economics, which conducted a comprehensive study of the Lutak Dock, including potential customers, and released its report last fall.
"If you read (the report) carefully it says, 'Yes, do whatever you need to do to the Lutak Dock to make it stable and make sure that it's good for the users. But don't start talking to AIDEA (Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority) about building an ore terminal, because there's no point in it,'" Scott said.
Earnest said he interpreted the report's recommendations differently. In the short-term, the borough should focus on improving the existing infrastructure, but that is not exclusive of planning for any future of mid-term developments, he said.
Schnabel said she was surprised the administration chose 2013 as a strategic year to send three borough officials to Roundup, especially after the Northern Economics report was released.
"All the players are currently known. Anybody who reads that report doesn't read it and say, 'I need to get on a plane and go to Roundup'... It seemed to me in a reading of the report that we don't have to be very aggressive about marketing because the mining industry will identify us with plenty of time to do the development work," Schnabel said.
Schnabel said the administration's move to send three people "looked like a junket," although she acknowledged something productive could possibly come of it.
Chief fiscal officer Jila Stuart estimated the trip will cost the borough $4,680. It will be paid for by the borough's Lutak Port Development Plan grant, she said.
"I am not convinced that going to Roundup is the best use of our grant money," Scott said.
Earnest said he thinks the trip is a wise use of resources because it keeps Haines in the loop on potential mines in the Yukon. "I would say of all of our potential opportunities for economic diversification, this is probably the one that has the greatest potential to do the most good in the short term," he said.
"We're faced with state and federal budget cuts. They're happening now. And I can't see the situation reversing any time in the short or long term... people like the Chilkat Center, they like the pool, they like the library, they like the museum, they like education funding. That money has to come from somewhere," Earnest said.
When asked why the borough had to send three officials instead of just one, Earnest responded, "Because it's that important."
Vick said the three would probably split up frequently to attend events scheduled at conflicting times. Vick said he is looking forward to gathering information and asking questions, and that attending Roundup is key to Haines "keeping its hat in the game."
"I think it's important for Haines to at least be in the conversation so we know what the potentials are and the direction things seem to be going. Especially in the Yukon, because there's so much resource development going on there," Vick said.
Culbeck was out of town and could not be reached for comment.
Instead of sending three public officials to Roundup, Scott said the borough should be posing the question to itself, "Under what conditions or circumstances, if any, should the Haines Borough promote the development of an ore terminal?"
Scott speculated answers could include if the terminal is built on public property, if the mining company finances it, or if the ore is only going to be shipped in closed containers. "But there isn't a mine. So we're putting all this energy into an economic sector that doesn't exist," Scott said.

Perspectives through infrastructure
Infrastructural development:
A bridge to education, health and prosperity
The primary objective of our infrastructure investments is to create lasting value, both for our investors and for the people living locally. As such, we also assume responsibility for conduct which offers a benefit of systemic importance when social, ethical and environmental aspects are considered and which goes above and beyond fulfilling our investor's investment targets.
Taking renewable energies as an example, our projects provide urgently needed sustainably generated electricity not only in regional conurbations, but also in rural areas that were previously undersupplied. They allow the emergence of industrial and commercial centres, run machines in the factories and workshops, and thus make a vital contribution to societal development in general. They lay the foundations for economic development and follow-up investments, trigger growth processes and put people in employment right from the construction stage. They offer local farmers additional income in that their crop residue is put to use in our biomass power plants.
The newly acquired purchasing power is increased by additional consumption and generates even more jobs in a region's economy, skilled trades, retail sector and service industry. Our power plants also generate light for schools and hospitals, make it possible to refrigerate and store food, and provide access to modern communication, thus additionally affording access to knowledge and education.
Furthermore, they play a part in protecting the environment, thereby sustainably improving people's living conditions. As such, our power plants set benchmarks in terms of energy policy and social sustainability within a region and are therefore a prime example of the vertical integration of infrastructure projects.
In our view Impact Investing is a methodology for driving change through investments.
Let there be Light
Poorly lit villages. In the handful of buildings where there is light, loud diesel generators can be heard, generating a small amount of electricity at great expense, be it to run the neon lights in a cookshop, the fridge in a food retail store or a solitary light bulb in a residential building. The impact of a latent shortage of electricity is a typical scenario in many parts of Asia, in particular in the more rural regions.
Change and prospects thanks to energy
Our power plants induce fundamental change in this respect, allowing thousands of households to benefit from progress, creating prospects and prosperity, and protecting the air, water and natural resources. Light is thus, proverbially speaking, brought to a region that had previously not enjoyed the benefits of a reliable and affordable electricity supply.
Environment Social Governance (ESG)
In recent years there has been growing recognition of the importance of managing environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors effectively among companies that operate in the financial services sector. As an investment and advisory firm, ThomasLloyd is directly or indirectly responsible for the savings of millions of beneficiaries worldwide and is therefore fully committed to invest our clients' capital in a responsible manner and integrate ESG factors, alongside commercial and financial factors, into our investment process.
Thomaslloyd is a Signatory to the Principles for Responsible Investment (PRI)
and other Key Responsible Investment Initiatives
ThomasLloyd is committed to investing responsibly. We believe that the integration of material environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors into our investment process is a core part of our fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of our clients and their beneficiaries. To formally incorporate and systematically integrate ESG factors therefore in this process, we have developed a Socially Responsible Investment Policy, Methodology and Framework.
"Energy for learning" –
The ThomasLloyd Foundation
Founded in 2016, the ThomasLloyd Foundation has set itself the goal of promoting in particular school and playgroup projects at its investment locations in South East Asia, as an expression of its full responsibility and social commitment and of its ties with the local people. ThomasLloyd believes that access to a reliable electricity supply plays a fundamental part in a region's societal and economic development. A functioning energy infrastructure is therefore also the key to education and the basis for personal and societal prospects.
As a company that acts holistically, we firmly believe that we have a responsibility towards the people in whose regions we generate added value for our investors. Because our success is founded on these people serving as our employees, suppliers for our biomass power plants, and partners. We therefore provide assistance wherever a helping hand is needed. We are especially delighted that ThomasLloyd employees also launch and oversee social projects independently or with the assistance of ThomasLloyd.
Our target investment regions are often characterised by structural weaknesses and are predominantly agricultural. Jobs in industry and the skilled trades are rare and major industrial locations are non-existent. The infrastructure is often outdated. And in many cases, these regions are not connected to the major electricity grids – this would put too much of a strain on the national electricity providers.
This is precisely where decentralised renewable energy power plants come in – electricity is generated where it's needed, using natural resources and without the need for large-scale cross-country grids. Workers find a wage and bread at the construction sites, while farmers find additional income thanks to their crop residue being put to use in our biomass power plants.
Energy security also offers security of investment. When our power plants are started up, this triggers a process in which new industrial parks, small-business centres and commercial hubs are established, thousands of permanent jobs are created, income is generated and consumption is facilitated.
Sustainably generated electricity opens up education opportunities. Schools are electrified and modern teaching methods make their way into the education system. Teachers make the most of the teaching benefits of computers, and the schoolchildren still have light in the evenings, allowing them to learn. The Internet offers access to global knowledge. Our projects create far-reaching benefits – for the entire region and for many generations.

Playing a Man's Game: Inspirational Women Series at Quixey Tel Aviv
It's no secret that the tech industry could benefit from a little diversity. Which is why tech companies have been taking initiatives to help encourage women and minorities to pursue engineering careers. Here at Quixey, we believe in closing the gender gap, which is why we've been working with She Codes, an Israeli organization dedicated to creating and fostering a community of women developers.
She Codes' goal is for half of all software developers to be women within a decade. In support of this mission, Quixey hosted She Codes' Inspirational Women Series at our Tel Aviv office last week, where Mor Schlesinger, Quixey's VP of Engineering, spoke about how to find success as a woman in a man's world. "It's a man's game," she said, "but women can play this game, too."
Drawing on her 25 years of experience in the tech industry, Mor, who recently joined the advisory board at She Codes, shared valuable insight on the male-dominated workforce and how women must play the game differently. In order to achieve success, she said, women need to fully understand the way the industry works, and approach their careers in tech differently than men.
It all begins with building confidence, according to Mor, and confidence comes with practice and acceptance that perfection isn't what we should be striving for. "I know we say 'practice makes perfect,' but I want to change that," explained Mor. "I want to tell you that practice builds confidence, and that's one thing we really need."
Women shouldn't strive for perfection. There's a common misconception that in order for women to be successful, they have to be superwoman. Mor explained that confidence comes from accepting that not everything needs to be perfect. Women should create a balance in their lives, where rather than trying to excel at everything, we should prioritize the most important tasks, and let everything else go. "I have a 90-10 rule for perfectionism," said Mor. "I make sure to do 10 percent of my tasks perfectly."
Mor also discussed the importance of stepping out of the comfort zone in the workplace. Women often need to challenge themselves to act in ways which men see as completely natural. "Speak up, market yourself, be a team player, but don't lose your competitive edge," said Mor, "and go out for after-work drinks."
Throughout her speech, Mor frequently returned to the theme of confidence and recommended The Confidence Code: The Science and Art of Self-Assurance—What Women Should Know, written by Katty Kay and Claire Shipman. The gender gap in the tech industry starts at an early age, growing over the years. Math and science are generally regarded as male disciplines in grade school; the amount of women pursuing computer science degrees is at an all time low; and only one in ten venture-backed tech companies are founded by women. Despite the low quantity of women in tech, the quality is there. The women presently working and succeeding in the tech industry, like Mor, are an inspiration.
"Mor was truly inspiring," said one of the event's attendees, "one of the most beneficial lectures I've ever heard."

Moving on from Kobe Bryant is both difficult and exciting. For the first time in 20 years the Lakers will not have him in the lineup and that changes the calculus of how you build a roster, deploy lineups, and even talk about what to expect out of the season.
I, for one, will miss Kobe but will also look forward to the next chapter in Lakers' basketball. We have already gotten a glimpse of what that will look like this past summer, but the real journey begins in earnest this fall.
Until then, though, I will happily take in some flashes of glory from Kobe's final season. And thanks to @DawkinsMTA we get a taste of some Kobe's best plays from his 20th and final campaign:

The pieces aligned for potential disaster Wednesday night. But Colorado State shook off their most heartbreaking loss of the season, as well as news that three of their players would be academically ineligible for the spring semester in a 76-71 road victory over San Jose State.
The Rams (10-6, 2-1) sprinted out to a blistering start, scoring the game's first 13 points. CSU grabbed eight out of a possible nine rebounds to open things up. They also benefitted from the Spartans missing their first sevens shots from the field.
SJSU would get right back into it though as they went on a 20-2 run, with most of the damage coming after Emmanuel Omogbo picked up his second foul. The Spartans led by as many as five points at the 8:29 mark in the first half.
CSU got back on track toward the end of the half, in part thanks to Prentiss Nixon, who led all Rams with 10 points in the opening 20 minutes. Larry Eustachy and company took a 34-31 lead into the locker room at halftime. The Rams shot 43 percent while holding the Spartans to 33 percent.
The second half featured a pair of early CSU runs. In the first eight minutes, the Rams enjoyed an 8-0 run followed by a 7-0 run. SJSU kept it close though, never allowing the green and gold to pull away.
With just under four minutes to play, a quartet of Rams got into double figures. Brandon Clarke did a good chunk of the work for the Spartans, finishing with 24 points on 10-of-12 shooting.
The game's final minutes saw SJSU creep closer and closer to tying the game and even regaining the lead. The Spartans had a chance to tie it up with a 3-pointer, but missed badly on their possession.
CSU notched their second road win of the season and first since the end of November.
Omogbo – The senior forward recorded his seventh double-double of the season, a league-high. Omogbo finished with 13 points and 11 rebounds.
Nixon – Along with J.D. Paige, Nixon had a team-high 18 points. He was 5-of-10 from the floor and a perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line.
Paige – The lefty missed just two shots and finished with 18 points on 7-of-9 shooting.
499 – Career wins for Eustachy
14 – All-time wins against the Spartans for CSU. The Rams have never lost to SJSU.
4 – Combined points for Kimani Jackson, Che Bob and Devocio Butler nearly 24 hours after it was announced that the trio was declared ineligible for the spring semester
After failing to close out several previous games, Eustachy and the Rams absolutely had to have this game.
Eustachy will try to earn his 500th career win Saturday afternoon when Air Force visits Moby Arena. It will be a noon tipoff.

Liu, X., Chen, W., Chen, Y., and Zhao, J., "Simulation Modeling on Dynamic Stiffness of Leaf Spring Based on Three-link Model," SAE Int. J. Commer. Veh. 10(2):519-523, 2017, https://doi.org/10.4271/2017-01-0421.
The leaf spring has significant hysteresis characteristics due to the interleaf friction. The traditional three-link model could not simulate the hysteresis characteristics at all. According to the dynamic load test results one can find that the dynamic stiffness of leaf spring has a nonlinear relationship with the travel distance and the load frequency has a tiny influence on it. Based on the traditional three-link model, this paper proposed a simulation modeling method by introducing torsional friction on the revolute joints. The key parameters including torsional spring stiffness, friction torque preload, stiction transition velocity and max stiction deformation are optimized by combining the ADAMS and OPTIMUS. The comparison analysis between the simulation and test results of front and rear leaf springs have revealed that the maximum average errors are 4.84% and 6.41%, respectively. The proposed simulation modeling method of leaf spring lays a foundation for the high efficiency and precision modeling of vehicles on ride comfort.
