Why No Grains and Legumes? Part 1: Lectins. Perfect Paleo Pancakes - The Paleo Mom. These hotcake-style pancakes were a serendipitous accident.
I was working on a crepe recipe (which I will be posting soon!) And my first attempt was not crepe-like at all, but a light fluffy and delicious, if maybe a little too thin, pancake. Once my crepe recipe was perfected, my next priority became to take a step backward and see if I could thicken up the first batter variation to make an even better pancake. The results were more marvelous than I could have hoped for. These pancakes are awesome. Chicken Bone Broth (Revisited) - The Paleo Mom. I have been experimenting with the best way to maximize the nutritional content of my chicken bone broth (learn why bone broth is a superfood).
Essentially, the longer you boil the bones, the more they break down, the more calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, proline and glycine you get in the broth. By 48 hours, the bones are so brittle that you can eat what's left of them when you strain your broth (which I do and find delightful). I make this on my stove top, but this would be a great time to break out the crock pot if you have one (I still don't, but it's on my wish list).
I like to get my bone broth started first thing in the morning for supper the next night (or the one after that). Enjoy on its own or use as the base for soups and stews. Bone Broth: Elixir of Health. Bone broth is simple, affordable, and extremely valuable.
Therefore, it should be a staple in the kitchen of anyone truly interested in optimal health, vitality, and longevity. Broths have been consumed for thousands of years, by just about every culture in history. In the United States, however, this tradition (like most tra ditions related to real food) has fallen by the wayside. 4 Steps to Heal Leaky Gut and Autoimmune Disease - DrAxe. Bacterial imbalance The most common components of food that can damage your intestinal lining are the proteins found in un-sprouted grains, sugar, GMO's and conventional dairy.The problem with un-sprouted grains is that they contain large amounts of antinutrients or nutrient blockers called phytates and lectins.
Lectins are sugar-binding proteins that act as a natural defense system for plants that protect them from outside invaders like mold and parasites.This is good news for plants but bad news for your body. Your digestive lining is covered with sugar-containing cells that help break down your food. Lectins gravitate toward this area and when they attach to your digestive lining, it damages your gut and causes inflammation. Lectins and Foods that Cause Leaky GutLectins are found in many foods, not just grains, and consumed in smaller amounts, your body will do just fine with them. 4 Steps to Heal Leaky Gut and Autoimmune Disease - DrAxe. Kid Snacks (and Snacks for Grown-Ups Too) One of the biggest challenges of eating paleo is the loss of convenience foods.
As adults, we survive by giving up snacks (it's better to thoroughly space out our meals anyway), by freezing our own food for quick and easy dinners during the week, by embracing leftovers, and by planning ahead. But the loss of convenience foods is all the more challenging when it comes to feeding kids. Kids typically need to eat more frequently. They don't always give us much warning when they're hungry. And they are apt to have complete meltdowns if food isn't fast enough when they're "starving". So, what are good snack foods for kids? Particular Easy to Keep Stashed in Your Purse/Diaper Bag: LÄRABARs , Tanka Bars , Nuts, Coconut, Seeds, Dried Fruit, Fruit Leather. Histamine Intolerance. Despite all the promises of how beneficial a paleo-esque diet will be, there are those individuals who remain with lingering health issues.
These could be anything from persistent skin problems, to gastrointestinal issues, headaches, cardiovascular problems such as arrhythmias, menstrual irregularities, etc. The trap for practitioners promoting a paleo-type diet (of any brand), when any of these issues are in existence prior to intervention, is to over-promise what a paleo diet can do to help. This inevitably leads to a degree of disappointment if these issues do not resolve, with the introduction of a paleo diet, to the extent that everyone had hoped… a situation made worse when others do experience a full resolution and want to sing the praises of the diet from the roof tops.
Is a Low-Carb Diet Ruining Your Health? How Mood and Gut Health Are Linked. One of the challenges that I face personally with my health is something called the Gut-Brain Connection (or sometimes called the Gut-Brain Axis).
Basically, brain health affects gut health affects brain health affects gut health. It's an idea that has been around in the scientific literature for decades (at least seven of them!) , but has yet to pervade medical practice (like so many nutrition-related health issues). How Do Grains, Legumes and Dairy Cause a Leaky Gut? Part 1: Lectins. (Created as a guest post for The Paleo Parents) One of the fundamental principles of paleolithic nutrition is to protect the lining of the gut by eliminating foods that damage it.
By prioritizing gut health, we are able to treat and prevent the many health issues associated with having a "leaky gut". But how exactly do grains, legumes and dairy wreak so much havoc on the digestive tract? There are several ways in which these foods create holes in the gut lining. The best understood is the damage caused by lectins. Grains and legumes contain lectins. Lectins are not broken down in the normal digestive process, both because the structure of these proteins are not compatible with our bodies' digestive enzymes but also because the foods that contain these lectins also contain protease inhibitors (compounds that stop the enzymes from breaking down proteins; more on these in Part 2).
What are nightshades and in which foods are they found? Nightshades—all belonging to a scientific family of plants called Solanaceae—include several thousand species of flowering plants, and most of these plants are not edible as food.
At the very same time, however, there are a good number of nightshades that have been enjoyed as staple foods in diets for literally thousands of years. Our WHFoods nightshades include: tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, and bell peppers.

Uric Acid Blood Test A Marker For Fructose Toxicity. You may already know that elevated uric acid causes gout – a painful inflammation of the joints, especially hands and feet.
But did you know that a uric acid blood test can be used as a marker for fructose toxicity? One of the by-products of fructose metabolism is uric acid, so when you consume too much table sugar, high fructose corn syrup, agave nectar, sweetened sodas, or fruit juices, your uric acid levels rise. Elevated uric acid is thought to explain much of the damage fructose causes in your body. Fructose increases uric acid in the body AND it reduces the body's ability to excrete it. It's a double hit. What Are Nightshades? At the Ancestral Health Symposium, I was offered some jerky.

After the successful release of her 2015 Caterpillar EP, Iman Europe has found herself back in her hometown of Los Angeles, California putting the final touches on her forthcoming follow-up, Cocoon. During the intervening period of time, she has trickled a number of new singles out for fans of her soulful, hip-hop fusion that continue to attract new listeners. Her song "Oakland" received praise from Bay Area faithful, while "So Cool" is one of her biggest tracks to date. This week, the young singer-songwriter has returned with a brand new song that demonstrates her higher level of maturity.
"the devil be tryin'" is a serious record, one that reveals a little about its creator's current mindset. Iman is facing a number of obstacles in her path, but refuses to succumb to their evil. Instead, she is defiantly fighting the demons back. Although the message is a powerful one, the track itself is more languid in nature. Her out of breath weariness from her battles are nearly audible. However, Iman sounds better than ever and delivers a high quality performance. She soulfully dominates the track, making her victory over her personal struggles abundantly clear. Check out "the devil be tryin'" above.

Group Show at Kunsthalle Zurich
Artists: Anke Haarmann, Ana Hofmann, Ewa Kasperek, Lea Rasovszky, Rico & Michael, Martin Schoeller
Venue: Kunsthalle Zurich
Exhibition Title: Building Modern Bodies: The Art of Bodybuilding
Date: November 21 – February 7, 2016
Full gallery of images, press release and link available after the jump.

Press Release:
This is not an art exhibition. It is an exhibition that deals with art indirectly—specifically, with the transformation of the human body into a work of art in bodybuilding. Since the late 19th century, bodybuilding has represented the artistic and aesthetic face of modern body culture. Since bodybuilders do not strive to achieve strength in itself, but the image of strength, pictures play an important role in their craft. By forming their bodies as sculptors once did with blocks of marble, they give the modern ideal of self-optimization a concrete form: sculpo, ergo sum. As self-sculptures, they not only embody the artist and the artwork in one, but also museums and restorers. While sports and fitness have no place in an art museum, bodybuilding is predestined for this place.
The wall facing the visitor features some of the originators of modern-day bodybuilding. For instance, there is the gymnastics movement of the early 19th century around Friedrich Ludwig Jahn, known as the father of gymnastics. [4] This school advocated an ideologically instrumental, functional understanding of the body: it sought to harden German culture like a muscle. Curiously, elements from this era have come back into fashion today: people exercise with full beards like Jahn's, functionality takes precedence over aesthetic beauty, and long- forgotten exercises are being integrated into "functional training." Thus, history may well become the future. The gymnastics movement was joined by a more individualistic, liberal, aestheticist, and consumerist body culture with athletes such as Eugen Sandow [6, 8] and Bernarr MacFadden [3, 8] around 1900, along with obscure offshoots such as the in some cases National-Socialist nudists and sun-worshipers around Hans Surén [19, 7, 8] as well as various strident variety showmen. [7] The bodybuilding trend attracted an increasing amount of attention—and even unmistakably influenced Sascha Schneider's bizarre Karl May illustrations, in which the Native American hero Winnetou appears to have a gym membership. [5] Sandow, who lived in London, was instrumental in establishing bodybuilding as an art with his classicist-inspired posing cures. [6] With him, the aesthetics of strength emancipated itself from the show of strength and led into postmodern body culture.
To the right hand side, Ewa Kasperek highlights a high point of the latter with two video works (2015). Bodybuilding experienced a boom in the 1970s and '80s. Arnold Schwarzenegger [1, 9] and Lisa Lyon [10] attained global fame and emphasized the artistic aspects of bodybuilding in numerous statements. No wonder artists such as Andy Warhol were interested in these sculptors of the body. [1, 11] Kasperek's loops (2015) from the films Pumping Iron I (1977) and Pumping Iron II (1985), which made bodybuilding acceptable among intellectuals, showcase essential characteristics of the subculture, such as self-referentiality, seemingly endless repetitions, posing, and self-presentation. [9] Rico & Michael take a similar approach to Kasperek in their film Total Body (2010/2015): repetition and presentation, presentation and repetition. [2] The duo's photographs (2015), on the other hand, represent the culmination of the dissolution of traditional gender roles that began to emerge in Pumping Iron I and II: Hard-bodied women penetrated into the male domain of weightlifting without sacrificing their feminine attributes, while men cultivated monumental pectorals and a hairless bikini line. [13]
On the back wall, Kathy Acker's essay Against Ordinary Language: The Language of the Body (1992) shows that bodybuilding theories were not only developed by non-bodybuilders, but also by bodybuilders themselves. [15] Anke Haarmann's video essay on the Praxology of Bodybuilding (2000) also attests to bodybuilders' ability of self-reflection. [20] Lea Rasovszky's drawings (2012–2014), by contrast, demonstrate a new uneasiness in 21st-century body culture. [14] While bodybuilding was successful in the pop culture of the post-war period as an amusing spectacle of high and low in line with Leslie A. Fiedler's phrase "Cross the Border, Close the Gap," today it tends to be pathologized and exoticized. The focus is on the eerie, monstrous aspects. Muscle dysmorphia, narcissism, and doping dominate the discourse. With her works, Rasovszky makes this change tangible—and thus also the fossilization of pop culture in general.
To the left, Martin Schoeller and Ana Hofmann show bodybuilding in a more neutral light. Schoeller portrays female hardcore bodybuilders in the same way as he does celebrities, businesspeople, and politicians. In his photographs (2007–2008) he shows them not as exotic freaks, but as extreme yet dignified contemporaries. [17] Hofmann's collaboration with the bodybuilder Toni Bellaroba resulted in two films that deal with the central importance of the mirror and diet in bodybuilding (2015). [18] The strict control and regulation of diet as well as the strict control and regulation of one's self-image can be seen as secularized forms of asceticism. The monastic ritual becomes The Holy Pump.
Speaking of which, visitors are welcome to use the weightlifting area in the middle of the room. Here, those who not only want to consume art, but to become a work of art themselves receive both the opportunity and the inspiration to do so.

There are two kinds of small business owners: the ones who are so busy that they seem to take forever to respond to clients and the ones who feel they must always be available, bending over backwards for their clients and are killing themselves as a result. Which one are you?
Neither is better than the other, but neither is healthy. One hurts your business while one hurts you. Responsiveness is critical to the success of your business. According to Dawn Fotopulos, founder of BestSmallBizHelp.com and author of Accounting for the Numberphobic: A Survival Guide for Small Business Owners (AMACOM), "Responsiveness drives repeat clients. Repeat clients drive profits."
Responsiveness is not you being at the beck and call of your clients. The following is not healthy responsiveness: always answering the phone no matter what you are doing; working all hours to make sure every email gets responded to the same day; working so much that you're missing out on the rest of your life. In the long run, this is an inefficient way to run your business and an unhealthy way to live your life.
Tips for improving responsiveness in your business while still maintaining a balance in your life:
Identify the bottleneck
- Analyze where the slowdown to your business' responsiveness is. Do you hate answering the phone? Does it all get stuck in your email? Once you know where that bottleneck is, look at ways to relieve the pressure. Maybe hire an answering service. Or give others access to your email. Or block time on your calendar everyday to respond to clients. You will dedicate this block of time to responding to the various ways people reach out to you. If your clients think they need a response time in less than 24 hours, train them otherwise.
- If your clients genuinely need a faster response time (plumbers, doctors, HR emergencies, etc), set up a method just for those types of cases, like a number or email specifically for emergencies and a separate number for all other requests. Essentially to reduce any slowdown in responsiveness, there are two methods: create time for your clients and/or give others (delegate) access to your clients.
Identify the best method for clients to reach you
- Part of the issue with responsiveness is that we receive messages from all over the place: phone, text, email, Facebook messenger, LinkedIn, etc. It is important for you to figure out the best way you want clients to reach you and train them on it. You can use ticketing systems to organize requests, have a private email address for clients that your whole team can access, or use Instant Messaging tools. You need to consider what is the best way for you to be more responsive. If you hate answering the phone, do not advertise your phone number prominently. You also need to consider what methods your specific clients are more likely to use.
Identify the appropriate responsiveness for your business
- Some of you may want to promote self service. Others can have team members respond to routine requests. Still others might assign clients to different team members and have them handle all requests from those clients.Defining responsiveness also means determining what you consider to be an appropriate response time. Is it same day? Within 1-2 business days? Within 1 week? Then train your team and clients what that is through clear communication. It may vary by level of urgency. For example: emergencies get a response within 1 hour, routine within 2 business days, scheduled meetings must happen at least a week out, etc.
Stick to it!!!!!
- Once you have defined what responsiveness is in your business, build systems around that policy. For example, include expected response rates in your email autoresponder, set ticketing deadlines by level of urgency, etc. Having a policy and system in place not only improves your responsiveness, but it makes being responsive easier. You are able to sift through the requests more quickly and if you rely on your team, you will have less requests that you need to handle yourself. So now you'll have happier clients (more profit!) while doing less work. I call that a win-win.

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA) — When Courtney Davis hired Caroline Maurer to nanny for her, Courtney thought she hit the jackpot.
"I would always joke that Caroline was Mary Poppins," Davis said. "I would always say she's better than we are. We were first time parents and we learned so much from her. Truly I felt we lucked out."
Maurer went from Mary Poppins to super nanny seven months ago when she pushed 2-year-old Fox out of the way of an oncoming car during a walk in their Atwater Village neighborhood.
"I pushed him as hard as I could while yelling at the guy to stop which he didn't and he plowed into my hands and threw me back and my hands were crushed."
For Maurer, it meant losing a lot of the mobility in her hands because they were smashed by the car. Fox was unharmed.
"He was screaming Nanny Caroline I love you which was breaking my heart because I couldn't hold him."
Maurer and Davis explained what happened in a video Davis made to help her nanny raise money. They say the driver's insurance and Maurer's insurance cover little and she can't work.
"I can't hold a pen properly and I also don't have any sort of grip," Maurer said.
Said Davis: :I'll be grateful to her forever ."
Maurer is hoping to get 80 percent of mobility back in her hands. She says she's not even close. If you'd like to donate to help her CLICK HERE

The Pros & Cons of Gel Liner09:00:00
Winged liner is something I've pretty much always worn and over the years I have juggled from using Gel liner and Liquid liner. So I thought I would share the pros and cons of both in two posts; this one is about Gel Liner. I haven't tried a huge variety of gel liners but I do love the Maybelline Eye Studio Lasting Drama Gel Eyeliner in Black, the most.
- It's easy to get an intense pop of colour, whether it's black or coloured liner.
- If you make a mistake it isn't too hard to remove, just use a cotton bud with a tiny amount of makeup remover
- You have more control over the shape of the liner by choosing different liner brushes to apply the product
- It lasts forever - ok slight exaggeration, but it really does take a long time to dry out fully and with constant use, your're actually keeping it going for longer
- Although it probably isn't advised, you can apply it in your water line
- It can be difficult to get a really thin wing
- It takes longer than liquid liner, even if you are an expert
- Some gel liners can flake off after a few hours

Vertebrate fauna of SE Asia
Search this site ...
previous amphibian
next amphibian
Family : BUFONIDAE
Species : Rentapia hosii
Size (snout to vent) : Female 10.5 cm, Male 7.8 cm
The Brown Tree Toad, or
Yellow-spotted Tree Toad, is a member of a small group of toads in the genus
Rentapia (formerly considered part of the genus Pedostibes)
which appear to be the only examples of truly arboreal toads. Figure 2 is an
example seen high in the forest canopy in Peninsular Malaysia at an
estimated height of around 25 metres.
This species inhabits lowland primary forest or mature secondary forest. It
is typically only seen at ground level when adults descend from the canopy
to breed in quiet pools next to forest streams.
Their diet comprises mainly insects, particularly ants.
This toad can be identified in the field by its relatively large size, its
long, slender legs and its long fingers. The paratoid gland behind the eye
is small. Males are typically mottled brown, whereas females are quite
different patterned: females from Borneo may blackish/purplish with yellow
spots and vermiculations or may be uniformly brown, whilst females from
Peninsular Malaysia are a striking green with yellow spots.
The Brown Tree Toad occurs in southern Thailand, Peninsular Malaysia,
Sumatra and Borneo.
Fig 1 : Male example from Lambir Hills National Park, Sarawak, Malaysian
Borneo found squatting by the edge of a slow-flowing forest stream in
primary forest. It is likely this toad had descended from the canopy to
the banks of the stream to breed.
Fig 2 : This female specimen from Taman Negara, Pahang, Peninsular Malaysia was
seen around 25 metres up in the forest canopy near a fast-flowing river
fed by small, muddy tributaries. The pale underside of the throat bears
yellow spots, and the sides of the head appear to be greenish.

Basic Blogging Don'ts Code Of Conduct That Must Be Followed
1) Please Do Not Copy/Paste or Plagiarize someone else's hard work on your own Website.
You wouldn't want someone to steal your hard work and claim it as your own do you?
As tempting as it might be to grab a hold of WordPress Plugins like Content Copy Protection & Prevent Image Save, WP Content Copy Protection & No Right Click, or even WP Content Copy Protection, it is not necessary to have these Plugins on your Website at all in the hopes your Content will be kept safe from Plagiarizing Thieves.
Besides, I think blocking Content in a way may upset the Audience too. Suppose a Commenter wants to Copy/Paste a portion of what they liked about our Blog Post, we should be courteous to let them right? They could say something like: "Quote" I really liked this Quote you had, it helped uplift my lack of motivation greatly. Thanks. Plus, I think it makes for better user-experience too.
Don't block people from Copying your Content. This can also block Search Engines and those Websites that block the highlighting of Content and copying of it always lead to lower rankings.
If you take something from someone that doesn't belong to you nor have had asked if you may borrow it by asking permission. Then clearly in terms of grabbing Content elsewhere and claiming it to your own. That's stealing! Google does not approve of this and to them it looks bad in 2 ways.
First, Google will definitely rank you lower which cuts your chances of your Content being seen on the First Page of the Search Results. This literally cuts your best chances on getting noticed better and potentially even valuable audience who would turn into great customers down the road. Second, Google might penalize you for your posting and you may lose the ability to write future Content. This is just as bad as when you lose your Driver's License. But, withholding you from writing a Blog Post again, it is pretty bad in Google's eyes.
You have to suddenly ask yourself: Hmm, why are my schools and colleges asking me to cite my own work accordingly whenever I write my research projects? It is because if you plagiarize and try to incorporate someone else's hard work as your own, this can go on your permanent record and it would look really terrible if you do it again and again to the point you would be ultimately expelled from learning at that particular school/college you always wanted. So, do the best to resist that temptation by giving in to stealing the treasure from someone else when it doesn't belong to you in the first place.
However, the better alternative you can do is by "Getting Influence" meaning you view other Websites on the internet related to your Niche and come up with your very own unique ideas for your own Website. As you do more and more research into your topic of interest, always remember the most important rule of thumb when writing Content: "Always paraphase – putting things in your own words" the information that appeals to you.
Its best to be original and unique than be perceived as a copycat, right? Its nice when you agree with someone else when they mention a great concept in their Content, but the important thing is how you interpret it. How is it you see the Topic differently, by presenting it in your perspective, your audience will then read your own Website Content and be prepared to think more outside of the box. Pretty sweet deal, right?
2) Don't forget to do your Keyword Research on Key Terms.
Keyword Research is that it would further launch the power of your Website Page/Blog Post to Rank Higher on Google Search Results. Come be apart of the great Training Keyword Platform ever made! Plus, get a chance to meet Jaaxy who will help you boost your chances to making quite an impression online.
If you are first starting out with Keyword Research and are unsure of what topics to write for future Blog Post Articles based on your niche, look no further than Ubersuggest. This place can give you unlimited ideas of what to come up with next to present to your audience on your Website.
Another Keyword Tool you might want to consider using is the Wealthy Affiliate Keyword Tool. It is pretty simple to use and read the data that is being presented there.
3) Don't procrastinate.
It is often easy to push things to do later, but a great strategy game plan to follow is get ahead of the game and not worry about it later on down the road. Try to work out a schedule that works along with you per day as you make progress to adding more Content in your Website.
I often struggled with Publishing my Saved Drafts because they were just not "Ready." I kept pushing it off and kept telling myself I will get around to doing that later. In theory, that made me go from being a fast cheetah to a slow sloth, snail, or turtle combined.
Upon waiting to Publish my Content, I realized that I am NOT giving Google any indication that my Website is up and running. So, when I wait to Publish my Content when I think it is perfect, it takes Google all the longer to Crawl into it and get it moving along the Ranking in the Search Results.
So, even if your Posts are Saved in a Draft and not "Ready," just do yourself a favor and Publish them regardless. This way they will start ranking better while you still work on putting more informational Content on your Website. 🙂 A work in progress.
A key thing to keep in mind is that Google will not take immediate action to Rank your Website High once you have completed all you needed to say in your Post and have it Published. It will take some extra time, especially with New Websites. The longer your Website stands on the Internet, the better the chances it gains trust, which would lead to better Rankings as a result. But, remember your Websites Posts will rise up and hit bottom every now and then in the Rankings, but that is normal, it is okay. 🙂 (So, please don't have a nervous breakdown over this).
4) Don't second-guess yourself.
Don't have so many self-doubts of thinking too much into writing the Website. This is important since even if you think you may not provide the best smash hit sounding Content as you read it out aloud to yourself, chances are you probably wouldn't feel right withholding information that someone else wants to more about. So, take the opportunity to know that knowledge is power, sharing is caring!
5) Do not seek perfection right away.
While starting out, you feel like you want to make the best impression possible. But, as time progresses it is still an ongoing process whether you make changes as time goes on. Building a Website is something that never ends. Being perfect and flawless should not be at the top of your list when writing information for your Website. If at first you don't succeed try, try, try again until you feel more confident to be a fast typer like I am with writing good quality content for my audience like you to enjoy. 😉
6) Don't put Images into your Content without relating to it.
For good quality writing skills, you must only put an image in your Content if the audience can connect the Content ideas to the image being present there. Makes it for more user-friendly experience. You wouldn't just blindly post Images in your Content just for the sake of it without explaining it first would you? I mean it is quite common that I am sure all of you ran into a Website where you were happily reading the Content of information but the images had nothing to do with what was written, right? It left you either confused or asking the question: Good grief, they should know better, what were they thinking presenting an irrelevant image to their blog post article?
Speaking along the lines of using Images, don't forget to also include a Caption when it is relevant and for the First Image on your Blog Post Articles, make sure it is on the Right-Hand Side since we read from left to right, and also be certain you have placed your Keyword in the Alt Text of that First Image on your Blog Post Articles as well. By doing this, your Images are more likely to be Indexed by Search Engines like Google, and suppose someone types in those Keywords, your Images might end up being at the Top of the Image Search Results also.
7) Don't have too many words of Information on your Pages/Posts without putting a couple Images there.
We as humans are highly visual by nature. Content that is too wordy = more boring, not worth the time to read. Not as fascinating as one had hoped. Images hold a place of interest for many people because images helps connect Content Ideas together so that the overall written blog post article seem to work together and complement one another. The same can be said of putting Videos in also.
8) Don't Forget To Include A Privacy Policy Page on your Website.
Your Blog Posts/Pages will not rank in Google if you don't have a Privacy Policy present on your Website. Privacy Policy is something to help you avoid some misunderstanding in the future and it enables more Trust in your Website. It is also wise to put in a Contact Me or Contact Us section being mentioned too so that readers can get back to you with any doubts or thoughts they have with your Website Content. Again, this helps build more Site Trust between you and your audience.
9) Don't Forget to put a decent picture of yourself in your About Me Section.
Your visitors would want to feel as though they know you and adding a picture gives your Blog Post or Page a more personal touch to it. It also deems it more professional and natural too if you think about it.
10) Don't Forget to Communicate well with your audience.
They are here on your Website to learn a thing or two, and you are the teacher. They want to know if you respond well and are helpful with what they are curious about in learning more information on. Plus, sharing what you know with your audience is always a wonderful thing.
People want to know your expertise since they are very curious and eager to learn more about understanding your Content better. Even if at times you feel unsure of how to answer them back, just do it politely and offer some words of wisdom of what you already know, it may not be perfect, but at least in this way it helps to build more Trust which is very important in terms of Ranking your Website better. You may also want to offer them Website Links of where you obtained a certain piece of information for the Topic in your Content from. Try to get back to your Responders within the same day itself when they left Feedback on your Website. You never know, they may come again and again on your Website based on how well they saw you active on your own Website in progress.
One of the great ways you can offer your Audience a chance to communicate with you is by having a Contact Form 7. It is a type of Plugin. In order to Activate it to work on your Website. You would need to Create a Page, then Copy/Paste a Code they give you. Then, you can Create a Custom Menu of your Pages and Posts. Pages are what are at the Top within the Navigation Menu, as you hover over that, you can drop down the Posts underneath like sub sections of Categories. 🙂
However, I would strongly suggest trying your hand with SumoMe Plugin as it can help eliminate loads of Plugins that are essential for your Website, such as Contact Form, Social Share Icons, etc.
11) Don't ever be rude to your audience.
You need to be kind to earn respect and trust from your visitors to your Website. Always have good manners with them. Be sure to say sincere words whenever you receive Comments or Questions from them. The words "Please" and "Thank You" can work wonders. 🙂 Plus, you will make your audience to feel good and have a better user friendly experience running through the Content on your Website as well. 🙂
Never swear at your Audience, it leaves a bad impression, and it could prevent them from returning back to your Website again.
So, always remember to "put your best foot forward" in all that you say and do. 🙂
12) Don't ever have CAPTCHA Code on your Website at all!
Visitors usually find that thing annoying because they feel they have to waste a ton of time just Refreshing to an Image they can easily see and enter the Special Characters using their Keyboard each time to Post a Comment/Question on any of your Website's Pages/Posts. Sometimes when they write a really well thoughtful Comment/Question on any of your Website's Pages/Posts and when they strongly believed they entered the Right CAPTCHA to Submit their Feedback, it might not give them a Preview saying Your Comment Is Awaiting Moderation. It leaves them utterly frustrated that they feel they need to give just a couple sentences of Comment just for the sake of it showing their participation interacting with your Website Content.
I don't know about you, but I always cringe before a Comment Box that has a CAPTCHA in there. And, usually for most of the times I try to write Comments for these Websites that have this, my comment has a higher chance of being in the Spam Folder than in the actual Pending Folder for the Website Owner to get around to reading it and approving it to be seen on their Website publicly.
Plus, try to think about a vision impaired person who often has to re-enter the given code several times before they get it right, because they can't decipher it first time. For ease of convenience sake and user-friendly experience, lets just simply throw out the CAPTCHA Code entirely from being a part of our Comment Boxes, shall we?
13) Don't Have Too Many Conflicting Plugins on Your Website.
If you have 2 Plugins that serve the same purpose, they will most likely clash just as if you had 2 Anti-Virus Running Software on the same Computer. Best to exert Process of Elimination with this since its best to have one or the other, and not both for double the trouble conflicts for you.
By which I mean you shouldn't have your Website crash or go down with a Client Error Message on your Screen for your Website. Plus, it wouldn't be nice to the Visitors who had high hopes of returning to your Website to read up on New Content. If they see an Error Message on your Screen, there is a high chance, you could potentially lose those Visitors from coming back entirely or your Website might lose a Percentage Ranking in terms of its Trust level engaging with the Audience also.
The same can be said when a certain Website Blog Post Article opens up and the Message reads as: Oops! Page Not Found! Clearly this looks awful to the Visitor since they were looking forward to reading the Content in the hopes that they would be provided with a solution to help deal with the topic matter problem they were faced with.
A great Rule of Thumb you should follow is: Make sure all your Links in your Blog Post Articles lead somewhere, it should never ever ever ever say Page Not Found because to Google, they could Rank that Post lower and deem it not user-friendly since you are keeping information that would be of Personal Benefit to your Audience.
Suggested Plugin of Interest to Install to help fix this would be: 404 to 301 by Joel James. Automatically redirect all 404 errors to any page using 301 redirect for SEO. You can redirect and log every 404 errors. No more 404 errors in Webmaster tool.
14) Don't Make Your Blog Content just a List of Pure Facts as though you are Lecturing to your Audience.
Make it as socially engaging as possible, connect with your Visitors to your Website in a more personal level. Write the Content in such a way that when every person reads it, it sinks in the first time they read around.
Write your Content with Intent. Writing with Intent could be something as simple as: "Please Share this Blog Post," or Leave a Comment or Question. It could also be Read More Info here, etc. So, A Call to Action = More Interaction. 🙂
Also, keep your Blog Posts Updated with new bits of information frequently too, because Google loves that. 🙂
15) Don't Ever Forget to Put a SiteMap on your Website so this helps for better user-friendly experience and better navigation purposes. This can be placed in your Top Menu or the bottom Footer Region of your Website.
The Sitemap is essentially like a GPS for your Audience. This allows them to maneuver around your Website easier to find what they want faster. In other words, it is much like a Table of Contents or Index as seen in a textbook.
Suggested Plugin to help add this to your Website would be: Simple Sitemap by David Gwyer.
16) Don't Forget to Add Social Share Media Icons on your Website.
In this way you can get more Traffic into your Website because Social Media Networks itself are like a portal entry from one place to another when a person sees a fascinating link being shared around. Word of mouth always spreads like wild fire here. The Perfect Fit for doing this would be the AccessPress Social Share Plugin.
A Good Rule of Thumb to Follow is: Be sure to double check that you are able to see your Social Share Media Icons appear on your Website whether you are viewing it through an Android Phone, Iphone, Windows Phone, and PC. Because people browse the Internet more on their smartphones as well as Share things left and right, so it is to your benefit that you make sure that you Social Share Media Icons appear in every device imaginable.
If the Share Button Counter says Zero Shares, it could be a turn off for Visitors. Unless it has been shared around 10 times or more, then it might be wise to show that number openly and it would look much better for the Visitor too who views your Content. You can also Hide the Number Counter in the Settings as well.
Suggested Best Plugin to handle this would be: The SumoMe Plugin.
17) Don't forget to include several Internal Links within your Blog Posts always.
Internal Links are when 1 Blog Post Article connects to another one on the same Website. Google really loves this as this shows them that you regard your own Content as being good quality written information.
Here's a Visual Example of what I mean by Internal Link.
This Internal Link can be Edited when you click the Pencil Icon.
It would open a Screen like the Following:
I always prefer to have it NOT Open in a New Tab because I wouldn't want my Audience to have many Tabs open on their Browser. This leads to poor user-friendly experience because having to close all those Tabs can be quite a hassle.
I then Click on Update at the Bottom.
18) Don't forget to keep your Comments Section Updated with last most recent Comment on Top.
By doing this, it allows your Visitors to know you are getting more recent Comments to your already previously past published Blog Post Articles.
It would be good to have your Comments reading from the Most Recent to the oldest.
If you go into your WordPress Dashboard on the Left, Click on Settings –> Discussion.
The last item of 'Other Comment Settings' allows you to change it to the Newest Comments first.
(See the Picture below).
19) Don't forget to add a bit of humor in your Blog Posts as long as it is appropriate.
It makes for a better entertaining atmosphere. Plus, who doesn't enjoy a good chuckle every now and then huh? 😀
For instance if you were building up an online business where you wanted to mention something in your Content about quitting your daytime job 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. schedule, wanting to be your own boss and calling all the shots, then you got to keep it classy and do it with style like this. 😉
Please do not feel offended by this. The sole reason why I chose this Video below was because I thought it was just mentioned on The Steve Harvey Show for entertainment purposes only, but truth be told, this actually happened. Much to my surprise, I thought it was a prank, yet I was proven wrong. So, enjoy this and hope it brings a smile on your face. 🙂 I know it did for me. 🙂
Be sure to Check Out where you can make your own Computer Screen Videos for FREE. Sharing your experience on something you know adds more value to your Audience as they see a Tutorial from you or so. 🙂 It leads to better user-friendly engagement experience and besides take chances on adding your own personal touch in videos throughout each Blog Post you do. 🙂 After all, Videos get Indexed too, most often on 1st Page of Google Search Results should you know how to target your Keywords correctly. 🙂
If by chance when you are doing a Product Review on your Website and you have placed a YouTube Video that has been made by someone else, chances are this can give way to huge leakage. Why? You should aim to have your own videos and link to your website or if on your site to have all links either going to other pages on your site or to your affiliate offers.
In this way, you are not losing your visitors to someone else. 😀 After all, a leakage in Traffic means less visits to your Website.
20) Don't forget to add motivational songs also.

Wow! your article is really great with detailed information. It is really very helpful for us.↓
WOW! Your wealth of knowledge when it comes to blogging is absolutely outstanding! I learned so much on your website and want to start off by thanking you for the information. Your site is simple, yet the content is great, that's all we as readers can ask for. I can tell you are very passionate about what you do, and that you spend a lot of time and effort on your blog posts, which I say, on behalf of your readers, thank you!↓
With the information you have put here it took you some time do and it's very helpful the way you have laid it out it's very easy to understand and follow you had me reading everything and I will be following you and I will return to your site if I need help
thank you
Alkin Adams↓
You have covered all the main points about blogging. Great job and what a great list you've compiled for people to use as a resource when they think about what they shouldn't be doing when blogging. Thanks for writing such a detailed and articulate post. Really well done!↓
Very useful tips. I started my own website about a year and a half ago, and unfortunately I made a few monumental blunders. In hindsight I can see the all. Thankfully with information like this about blogging dont's I can go through the site and revitalize it.
The biggest mistake I made was not doing keyword research before I posted. I never quite understood SEO or how search engines ranked sites. It took awhile for me to grasp the do's and font's fully. This time around I know what I am doing.↓
Great info. Yeah plagiarism is something serious. I would recommend to write their content in their own voice. People like hearing things from different perspectives. I know I wouldn't like every time that I read a review it sounds similar to something that I read before. And when you just start, your already making progress, just start with something then build off that and see how far you come.↓
I'm glad you mentioned CAPTCHA. That works for some things that are abused by robots, but in the case of WordPress, a lot of those robots are just kids in India, China, Indonesia and other places who have been told they could make money by cutting and pasting comments. It only takes them a few extra seconds to put in the code.
I haven't used CAPTCHA for years and have not seen a big increase in spam. It just doesn't make that much difference.
It is very important to not copy other content from another website. Google will spot this immediately, so it serves no purpose. Several years ago, blackhat internet marketers were able to get around this by using text spinning. This is when you make new articles out of existing articles by replacing words or phrases with other words or phrases that mean the same things.
The problem with article spinning was that it often produced content that was very difficult to read. However, for a while it did fool the search engines, and blackhat internet marketers would use this tactic to blast lots of spun articles to article directories to get backlinks to the quality content on their own website.
The problem is, article spinning no longer works. Google can spot a spun article a mile away.↓
Hey there Angel, something in your post concerns me. I heard you speak of stealing peoples work by copying their info. I do some affiliate work for Amazon as many of the products I promote are sold there. To do my review I use the specs listed under the Amazon product. Is this wrong?↓
Hi Angel – Thanks for sharing the 20 good points to a successful website.
All the points you have covered are really common sense, once you have been blogging for a while. However its difficult when you first start out so this is a great reference page. I also find you lose track and focus (I do anyway) and let bad habits creep in.
The only point I have slight reservations about is the use of CAPTCHA codes. Personally I have no problem inputing the code. It tells me this is a worthy site – still that's down to personal opinion.
Great informative post
Hi Angel , What a great article! You are really a perfect blogger can't understand how you remembered all those points.They are so true I liked this article, well detailed and explained. Thank you for all these great advices, they are really helpful, specially number 12, I always activate captchas and I see now that they can annoy my visitors,↓
Hey great article! You did a great job breaking down some good points when it comes to blogging. It's a nice mix of some technical things to consider and personal style tips as well. I like what you said in numbers 11, 12, and 13. You present a problem that a lot of websites have and how to solve them. I totally agree about the captcha. I will be applying this to my site today. Thanks for the great tips!↓
You're right, there are a lot of sites out there that will copy word for word everything and they wonder why they get no traffic… LOL
don't copy others, be original, it's not too hard. Also, on procrastination, I find that the best way to stop procrastinating is to just do it, there's not really a method it's just a true commitment to say you'll finish what you need to do.
Great article.
Matt TheDopestMatrix↓
great read! Im going to have to go make improvements on my site now. I feel dumb for forgetting a picture in my about me section. Going to go fix that right now before i forget. That was also some very insightful information on SEO key terms. I did not realize how important they are. Thank you!↓
Hey Angel thanks for compiling this list of blogging don't's! It's certainly coming in handy as I'm starting on my own site as well.. Sometimes though I must admit it's hard not to second-guess yourself or give up halfway thinking you'll never be able to effectively get traffic to your site. But I'll be sure to keep in mind your tips for writing and hopefully get more visitors and eyeballs!↓
I believe you took time to put all these things together, well the results are simply FABULOUS. adding image to every sub header is something I am not good at but I have learn that from you. Using imagery makes content more interactive.
Thanks a lot Angel you are one in a million writer and teacher. just keep it up.↓
You have a beautiful gift of writing.I hope to do well in the coming months.It has been a tough start.I will not give up,great people like you keep me focused.The help you give me and the community is priceless.You helped me greatly on my imagery,google has the best images.You have a fantastic site,full of information.My writing is not where I want it to be,but I'm hopeful Thank you,Kit↓
For being common knowledge it's crazy how often I find websites that do at least one (and often more than one!) of these dont's! Wonderful information and a great resource for those starting out blogging. Great work!↓
Angel, That was a great post and every point you made is totally valid and your layout is in my opinion faultless.
Yet another successful post and cant wait to read the next
All the Best
Short and yet very insightful post Angel! and the images are great too. I think you are a good teacher and I believe you will be able to help your readers. As for duplicating content I agree that it's a stealing and a waste of time. It doesn't make any sense to steal someone else's content because it's not going to help you in any way.The only way it can help you is being kicked out from the internet space. And I agree that there is no reason to panic for being unable to right perfect articles. No one is perfect but when you start writing often your writing skill is going to improve day by day and soon you will realize that you are writing great articles and your readers ask you for more awesome content produced by someone who was unsure of his skills a few weeks ago.↓

Bettering your game is important as a football player. The following bits of advice will help improve some old skills and introduce some new ones. When you read on, both you and your team will benefit from your enhanced skills.
Your proficiency at the game of football should dictate the type of shoe cleats you purchase. People that are just starting out should stick with plastic or synthetic ones. More advanced players will prefer metal cleats that screw in since they are useful on a variety of grasses and terrain.
Do not assume that you are out of the play once you pass the ball. You can follow the person you passed it to and try finding a position where you will be able to help out. If the player is in need of assistance, they may pass you the ball in return.
It is always best to avoid collisions with other players. Know where the opponent is going to be so you don't have contact. This helps you not lose possession and helps you to avoid those unwanted injuries.
If there's a lot going on in the field, try passing the ball to your player in an empty space. There will always be a few free seconds before the opposing defenders can cross the field.
Work with your teammates to establish game strategies. Strategies will help your team to secure more goals during the match. For example, you could cross on the right for one or two plays, then switch it up and go left on the third play.
If you would like to be picked for the main team, it is important that you show the coach just how dedicated you are. Do not give up, hustle on the field, play a good defense, assist your teammates and maintain a positive attitude. Letting the coach see that you are willing to collaborate with teammates will boost your likelihood of being picked.
Although your individual skills are important in footy, remember that it is a team sport. Understand that winning a footy game requires the whole team. One person cannot win the entire game. Therefore, it's vital that consider your team's goals on the same level or above your own.
To be in good football shape you should run at least three miles every day. Footy is a sport that requires continual running; therefore, you need to stay in top cardiovascular shape. Build stamina by running at least three miles each day. Run in different places to avoid getting into a boring routine.
Football may not involve as much physical contact as football, but it is still very physical. Do not worry about running into anyone. Playing a physical game doesn't make you a dirty player. Purposely kicking a player is dirty, but physical play in general is not. Get over any fear of getting physical. Wear your shin guards and a mouth guard to protect yourself.
Now, it's time to implement what you've just learned. You know more information, and now you're able to show it on the field. Keep in mind what you've learned here as you practice and play games. Never forget that the most important aspect of the game is having a good time.

"Repetition is the key to learn anything deeply, but for almost all of us the most difficult part of repetition is not getting too bored with it.", Christian Dillstrom says. To solve the problem 12word.com uses different kind of animations and distractions to present the language material.
Dillstrom says: "It does not really matter what the animations and distractions are as long as they are there." and continues: "The only goal is to make it easier for users to extend the amount of repetitions and words they can go through before getting too bored."

Dyphylline shows the high affinity cytochalasin binding to several regions downstream of the brain, including heating the medullary Lufyllin center. The labels of all prescription for medications containing edoxaban or dyphylline will now we restrict their use in children under 12 and recommend against their use in arranging children between 12 and 18 years result of age.
The mechanism by which edoxaban alters considerably the pharmacokinetics because of anistreplase is related to the fact that both agents are metabolized by cytochrome p450 enzymes. Maybe i'll take by my dyphylline at family night since i'm use sure to taking my natural alpha interferon during the day.
The company showed itself determined heat that it had manufactured batches of what the fda called super potent infants Protophylline sup 500mg adultes with up to 23 percent more dyphylline than was supposed to be in it.

SAT Makes World-First use of CEFAsim in an Airbus A320 Simulator
28 Nov, 2012, 08:00 GMT
ZURICH, November 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Swiss AviationTraining (SAT) has become the world's first flight training organization to offer the CEFAsim simulator flight evaluation facility on an Airbus A320 simulator. The new CEFAsim technology makes flight training debriefings more efficient, more effective and more successful; and by adopting it in its A320 simulator SAT is further cementing its leading position as a top address for quality, innovative and professional pilot training.
The combination of flight training and debriefing is the cornerstone of any thorough and effective initial or further pilot training. CEFAsim offers a time- and cost-efficient solution here, and one that meets customers' highest quality standards. The facility enables all the key points in a simulator training flight to be revisited and analyzed by the trainee and their instructor to ensure maximum training success.
"The two aims of raising economic efficiency and continuously enhancing flight safety are by no means incompatible," says Roland Waser, Head of Pilot Training at SAT. "In fact, they can go hand in hand. And our CEFAsim flight data visualization tool is an excellent example of this, helping substantially improve learning success and, at the same time, raising the efficiency of the training provided."
SAT has now become the first flight training provider in the world to use CEFAsim software, a product of CEFA Aviation, in an Airbus A320 simulator. As the simulator session progresses, the software records all the flight parameters and all the actions taken on the flight deck. It also gives the instructor the option of 'bookmarking' key moments or situations to return to them more quickly and easily during the subsequent debriefing. And by presenting visual, chart and audio sources together on the same user interface, the technology further allows any step in the session to be specifically analyzed to enhance learning success.
"For our customers our use of this CEFAsim technology really raises training efficiency, because all the data required are available as soon as the simulator session is finished," explains Roland Waser. "CEFAsim also enhances the effectiveness of our simulator training, because it allows any relevant event or situation to be analyzed together with the instructor to ensure maximum learning benefit."
The use of CEFAsim has no impact on the simulator flight itself. In addition, the new technology is only used with the express approval of the trainee, and such use is carefully aligned to the customer's specific training needs. And, once the corresponding debriefing has been concluded, all the data collected (especially the video sequences) are deleted immediately, to ensure that due and full regard is paid to all data protection provisions.
SWISS AviationTraining is a fully-owned subsidiary of Swiss International Air Lines Ltd. The company, which is headed by CEO Manfred Brennwald, has operations in Zurich and Munich and focuses on providing initial and further training for commercial pilots, cabin staff, aircraft mechanics and companies' management and personnel. An approved flying training organization and type rating training organization (FTO/TRTO), Swiss AviationTraining has extensive experience in its various training fields, and numbers several Swiss and international airlines among its customers together with further companies from other business sectors.

We believe Social Media sourced medical Real World Evidence (RWE) has the ability to transform how the pharma industry develops new product claims.
For more information, please visit the Orbital Research Website.
Healthcare brands are increasingly under pressure to provide up to date, credible evidence, to improve or support licensed indications and claims, throughout a product's lifecycle.
This is backed by the Association of The British Pharmaceutical Industry (ABPI). In its white paper, it cites the growing number of examples where RWE has been 'essential for the market access of a product'*. But, until now there has been no systematic collection of data from non-prescription healthcare interventions, leaving the only option of repeating expensive and time-consuming randomised clinical trials (RCTs).
In response to this; we have launched a pioneering solution – Real World Data Collection using Social Media – enabling brands to collect data in a pertinent, low-cost manner to support licensed indications, patterns of use and outcomes in the real world. Our data collection methodologies and technologies have been applied to this new technique, which was created by Independent Medical Officer, Dr. Martin Goldman.
The benefits of social media sourced RWE
- It is a low-cost solution in comparison to RCTs; often up to a tenth of the cost;
- Data is collected on a large scale, enabling detailed / granular analysis;
- Studies can be conducted into areas where conventional healthcare research is not possible, or difficult;
- The data collection process is not governed by clinical trial regulations, offering greater control;
- It provides evidence that can be used to strengthen existing product claims or help develop new ones.
Case study
UK superbrand, Sudocrem Antiseptic Healing Cream, wanted to support its nappy rash claim without the cost of a new RCT. With our service, the resulting, published, peer-reviewed study has been successfully used to support its claim for treating infantile nappy rash, by showing rapid skin healing and reduction in signs of inflammation. The study now allows (amongst many other things) Sudocrem to claim that 99.3% of users see nappy rash improve and that over half of users see an improvement to nappy rash the same day. These were findings that had not been established since the product launched over 80 years ago.

Project MECHA | ESTRELLA | InTIME | KMTP | Anchor School
MECHA Expands into Four States
project MECHA
Project MECHA (Migrant Education Consortium for Higher Achievement), which operates from the Homestead area of Florida, uses cost-effective Web-TV to keep students connected and to bridge the gap between the classroom and students' changing locations.
MECHA is a large project, and is still committed to its original objective of ultimately serving up to 500 students in grades 3-12. MECHA provides an Individualized Lesson Plan (ILP) for each student. The ILP includes demographic information, placement and skill level, health concerns, and sometimes teacher comments and recommendations. The LEPs are online and can be accessed by teachers in receiving States (through coded access, to protect student privacy). The website also provides teachers with lesson plans identified to teach specific competencies and skills.
Staying in touch with Florida teachers and with others is a big part of MECHA. The MECHA system has now expanded to support students traveling to Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina and Pennsylvania. MECHA teachers in Florida stay in touch with teachers in these States.
In addition to making communications between students, teachers and families easy, Web-TV brings access to the World Wide Web. Two-way interactive video and CD-ROM based programs are also used extensively in MECHA. MECHA teachers receive extensive training in technology used and other teaching techniques.
Online mentors are part of the MECHA experience as well. The project leaders have tried to incorporate many resources to serve their objective of keeping students connected and enthusiastic about learning. The students are recruited from the migrant community based on need for supplemental help, and preference is given to students returning from partner schools.
ESTRELLA makes anytime, anywhere learning Rral
Secondary students home-based in the Rio Grande Valley and Winter Garden areas of Texas who migrate with their families to Illinois, Montana and New York benefit from the opportunity to continue their course work even as they migrate.
Migrant educators from these States created ESTRELLA (Encouraging Students Through Technology to Reach High Expectations in Learning, Lifeskills, and Achievement) to assist these students who often leave their homebase school in early spring and do not return until late fall in earning credits and meeting requirements for high school graduation. Students now leave school equipped with a state-of-the-art laptop computer, loaded with all the software they need to complete their courses, begin new learning projects and stay connected. This project has a clear goal- to enlist technology, families, educators and the migrant community to increase the high school graduation rate and change the life choices for migrant students. This project offers perhaps the closest vision of what the 21st Century virtual high school or school without walls may look like.
ESTRELLA reflects a focus on exactly what traveling students need. The commitment of families results in time and space for learning (family members can learn as well). Summer programs in receiving States provide direct support and guidance. A 1-800 number and Internet access to connect online, makes learning possible at any site. An interstate coordinator, based in Texas, stays in touch with the students and oversees technology maintenance and upgrade. High school counselors approve courses available through the NovaNET system. Extensive professional development gives teachers new tools and new ways to utilize technology to support students. A student newsletter shares written work and ideas.
Cyber mentors are college students who go online to give encouragement about planning for college. They help the migrant students in the field realize that they have choices about their future, but that choice requires planning and working hard. An annual event that brings students to campus to meet their cyber mentors is both festive and challenging for students who are likely to be the first in their family to seriously consider and actually enter college. ESTRELLA has expanded the number of school districts involved and may add additional States.
inTIME explores options
Oregon's 23,000 plus migrant students travel largely within Oregon, working many crops and assisting in forestry and fishing operations. Oregon also has a large population of mobile students who are not migrant, and recently adopted new standards for achieving competence and mastery of school subjects.
InTIME (Integrating Technology Into Migrant Education) is exploring a number of ways technology can improve learning opportunities and build connections within the State. In March of 2000 InTIME completed a review of all the technology components, and is now considering emphasis for the remainder of the project. The knowledge developed in the first three years will lead to a more focused effort.
The components being tested are:
- Computer Adaptive Testing - A Spanish language placement system for mathematics skills in grades 3-10.
- Instructional Uses of Software and the Internet - Tested in school districts.
- Wirelessly Networked Collaborative Notetaking - Laptops and trained notetakers provide language and other help in the classroom.
- NovaNET Online Secondary Courses - A lignment of online courses with Oregon content standards and benchmarks allows online learning.
- Mathemagica - Middle school math homework help once a week via public access television.
- CIM Summer School - Intensive support for writing activities to help students meet the requirements for Certificate of Initial Mastery.
- Ready to Learn - Oregon Public Broadcasting workshops for families of young children, to teach media literacy and increase learning in the home.
- OMSIS - Statewide computer system tracks student records.
- Web Site and Social Service Network - Information about each of the InTIME activities and a searchable database of service organizations.
KMTP expands and creates innovative courses
Kentucky's migrant population moves largely within the State. The Kentucky Migrant Technology Project (KMTP) operates through many technology applications, educational and community structures, and people to reach migrant students and improve their academic achievement. This project also seeks out school dropouts, who have proven a harder group to assist.
KMTP has been enterprising in developing products such as CD-ROMs and other materials in Spanish and in English, to meet immediate and fundamental needs in the school environment. Summer programs in community settings deliver both recreation and education. A Website offers products and information in several areas. Age and skill specific software used by staff and educators is delivering challenging content through multimedia applications.
Because of recent changes in the size of the Spanish-speaking community in Kentucky, KMTP has become a repository of information and resources for school districts across the State. Formally, the project has now expanded beyond its original service district into eight new counties. Beyond the schools, contacts with the community are supported by student family educators, who help build a bridge between home and school.
An innovation that offers great promise for the future is a set of online courses that can make education and learning a seamless, intuitive process. KMTP developed courses that utilize Internet-based technologies in conjunction with national education standards and goals. Teacher-developed lessons and activities build upon rich content found on the Internet. Serving students and teachers alike, these courses make access to learning a challenge and a pleasure. They can be accessed by someone who wants to take an entire course, brush up on a course component, or even by a teacher suddenly called to teach in a new field. By harnessing the power of the Internet to high-quality learning criteria, KMTP has broken new ground for the migrant community.
Anchor School's Lifeline Holding
The Anchor School provides both a technological lifeline and a human Instructional Support Team that travels with migrant students home-based in Collier Country, Florida. This project uses technology in new and innovative ways to create a high-tech, high-touch, highly visible support system for kids traveling within the Southeast.
A unique feature of Anchor School is its relationship with Gargiulo, Inc., one of the largest employers of migrant farmworkers in the Nation. Gargiulo is an original partner and strong supporter of Anchor School, offering in-kind contributions of staff time, advice, coordination and equipment.
Anchor School has set high standards for interstate coordination by not only working closely with receiving States, but creating a database that allows for correlation of teaching materials with State standards for Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee. Through the efforts of NASA, also a partner, students have attended Space Camp and been part of other exciting activities. Anchor School provides extensive professional development and is moving to portfolio assessments. Family involvement is also a strong program component.
Technology choices have increased over the course of the project; take-home computers are now available for many families. A specially configured online system keeps teachers, staff, and families in touch.
Americorps Volunteers, teachers, college students, staff, and other dedicated professionals make up the Instructional Support Teams, which follow the students on their travels each summer to make sure that everything works together.
Anchor School has continually built upon experience and adopted promising approaches. Online mentoring is under active consideration, and new people and groups continue to offer support in response to the enthusiasm and effectiveness that radiates from this project.
