two large-scale programs: “About PISA,” OECD; NAEP: “National Assessment of Education Progress,” National Center for Education Statistics.
“high-stakes testing”: NCLB mandated that each state measure every child’s progress in reading and math in grades three through eight and at least once during grades ten through twelve. See “Introduction: No Child Left Behind,” US Department of Education.
Congressionally mandated program: The first NAEP data were collected on a trial basis in 1969. The assessments went through several major revisions before reaching the modern format in 1992. The data from the early assessments are rarely cited because they are not directly comparable to the post-1992 results. See “Grading the Nation’s Report Card: Evaluating NAEP and Transforming the Assessment of Educational Progress,” National Academies Press, http://www.nap.edu/catalog/6296.html.
Participating schools and children: Sampling methods: “About the 2015 Reading Assessment,” Nation’s Report Card, http://goo.gl/ubd5f6.
Really? reflex: Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler, “Weekend Update: Really!?! Congress’ Birth Control Hearing,” NBC.com, February 18, 2012.
Claims that depend: Trust, but verify, as they said in the Reagan era.
I mainly focus: For the blog, see http://www.dianeravitch.net. The blog is also a forum for like-minded critics. The book is Reign of Error (Ravitch 2013). For the talk, see “Conversation: Diane Ravitch,” uploaded to YouTube by The Nation, July 19, 2010, https://goo.gl/UXAaq0.
“The educational foundations”: National Commission on Excellence in Education (1983).
two reports: National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), 2004, 2007.
resulted from a toxic combination: Ravitch: “Venture capitalists and for-profit firms are salivating over the exploding $788.7 billion market in K–12 education” (Lee Fang, “Venture Capitalists Are Poised to ‘Disrupt’ Everything About the Education Market,” Nation, September 25, 2014, https://goo.gl/xCg5yP).
The reports on the state of reading: The NEA analyses of trends in reading were not competently conducted. The authors did not understand basic data handling and analysis (see, e.g., here). The data were from surveys about reading habits; the declines were in “leisure” and “literary” reading, ignoring reading on digital platforms, amount of reading for school or employment, and other reading. Whereas the first two reports reported alarming decreases in reading, the third one, “Reading on the Rise”, documented a sudden turnaround, “a significant turning point in recent American cultural history,” some slight upticks in the amount of literary reading in the survey data. These conclusions cannot be taken at face value.
independent operations: NAEP is federally mandated and funded but operates independently. NCLB mandated that schools receiving Title I funding participate in the NAEP assessments if selected under its sampling procedure. The purpose was to be able to use the NAEP to benchmark the states’ own tests. See Hombo (2003).
Hence the many attempts to explain: Examples: Martin Carnoy and Richard Rothstein, “What Do International Tests Really Show About U.S. Student Performance?,” Economic Policy Institute, January 28, 2013, http://www.epi.org/publication/us-student-performance-testing; Nick Pearce, “Pisa Panic: Being Honest About What PISA Really Shows,” Left Foot Forward, December 3, 2013, http://goo.gl/Ivpr0a; Diane Ravitch, “David Berliner on PISA and Poverty,” Diane Ravitch’s Blog, April 12, 2014, http://goo.gl/fPa4eo.
“Don’t believe anyone”: Ravitch (2013), 50.
general equivalency diploma (GED) holders: Heckman & LaFontaine (2008) note that GEDs account for 15 to 20 percent of high school diplomas each year and that those with GEDs perform at the level of dropouts in the US labor market. By inflating graduation rates, “The GED program conceals major problems in American society.” See also Heckman & LaFontaine (2010).
The US graduation rate: See Murnane (2013). The author also documents a true (non-GED-dependent) but unexplained uptick in high school graduation rates between 2000 and 2010.
“In my recent book”: Diane Ravitch, “Four Lessons on New PISA Scores—Ravitch,” Washington Post, December 3, 2013. See also Ravitch (2013), 70–72.
Hanushek and Woessmann: Hanushek & Woessmann (2012).
FISS, FIRS, SIMS, SISS, SIRS, TIMSS, and PIRLS: Mmmmm, you could Google them (try “_________ cross national assessment”). They are identified in the Hanushek & Woessmann article, p. 304, and on seidenbergreading.net.
analyses indicated “a close relationship”: Hanushek & Woessmann (2012), 267.
Hanushek and others have pursued: See, e.g., Murnane et al. (2000) and Hanushek & Woessmann (2008); for a different view, see Ramirez et al. (2006).
A five- or eight-point change: Sean Cavanagh & Kathleen Kennedy Manzo, “NAEP Gains: Experts Mull Significance,” Education Week, October 3, 2007.
They matter enough: Buckley (2001).
A smaller percentage of US students: OECD (2013b). For the lowest level, 1, scores are further divided into three sublevels. The < 2 refers to all level 1 data.
A comparison of the results: Amazingly, a large representative cohort of students took both the NAEP (in 2007 when they were thirteen) and the PISA (in 2009 when they were fifteen). This allowed Peterson et al. (2011) to make closer comparisons between the tests. They concluded that the NAEP’s proficiency standard was higher for reading, but the PISA standard was higher for math.
“It is fair to say”: Diane Ravitch, “Every State Left Behind,” New York Times, November 7, 2005.
“That 27 percent”: Garrison Keillor, “Where’s St. Michael When You Really Need Him?,” Prairie Home Companion, January 29, 2008, http://goo.gl/s2dSC8.
only a rough index: The National School Lunch Program, established by President Harry S. Truman in 1946, is a federally assisted meal program operated in public and private nonprofit schools and residential child-care centers. Students from households with an income at or below 130 percent of the federal poverty guideline are eligible for free lunch; they qualify for subsidized lunch if the household income is between 130 and 185 percent of the guideline. Peterson et al. (2011). For 2013–2014, children from families of four with incomes less than $30,515 qualified for free lunch; the cutoff for subsidized lunch was $43,568. Children above this cutoff are in the highest SES group, which includes many of modest means.
Low achievement in reading: See “Closing the Opportunity Gap: What America Must Do to Give Every Student a Chance,” Stanford Center for Opportunity Policy in Education. The press release provides a good summary.
Gaps in educational opportunity: For a grim reminder of poverty’s impact on education, see Jaclyn Zubrzycki, “Detroit Studies Illuminate Problem of Lead Exposure,” Education Week, September 26, 2012.
Every PISA assessment includes: To get a fuller picture of how factors such as parental education, educational spending, and percentage of low-income participants influence country scores, I recommend looking at pp. 34–36 in a 2010 PISA in-depth report, also posted on seidenbergreading.net).
“U.S. students lag”: For Duncan’s remarks about the 2009 results, see “Secretary Arne Duncan’s Remarks at OECD’s Release of the Program for International Student Assessment (PISA) 2009 Results,” US Department of Education, December 7, 2010, http://goo.gl/PAKnO. Many educators took issue with them and with his comments on the 2012 results. See Cameron Brenchley, “Duncan Calls for Higher Standards and Expectations Following PISA Results,” Homeroom, December 3, 2013, http://goo.gl/JUS5n8; Christopher H. Tienken, “Problems with PISA,” Chris Tienken, February 11,, 2014, http://christienken.com/2014/02/11/pisa-problems; and Diane Ravich, “David Berliner on PISA and Poverty,” Diane Ravitch’s blog, April 12, 2014, http://goo.gl/fPa4eo.
2013 report from the Economic Policy Institute: Carnoy & Rothstein (2013).
“damaging world-wide effects”: On the letter from educators, see “OECD and Pisa tests Are Damaging Education Worldwide—Academics,” Guardian, May 6, 2014, http://goo.gl/nl4epU. For a response from OECD, see Peter DeWitt, “What is PISA?”, Education Week, September 25, 2015, http://goo.gl/gGXCA0.
A much easier way to improve: Kay McSpadden, “Public Schools Aren’t Failing,” Charlotte Observer, January 30, 2015. http://goo.gl/8aeAWF.
“Less than 25 percent”: Kena et al. (2015).
“resilient” children: OECD (2011), 37.
“One of the basic principles”: “Educational Policy in Finland,” Finnish Ministry of Education and Culture, http://goo.gl/EUw3I.
particularly disturbing: On eligibility for free/reduced-price lunch, see “Percent Low Income Students: 2013–2014,” ED.gov, http://goo.gl/oP5FC0.
educational redlining: “Redlining is the practice of arbitrarily denying or limiting financial services to specific neighborhoods, generally because its residents are people of color or are poor”: D. Bradford Hunt, “Redlining,” Encyclopedia of Chicago. I am familiar with the concept from growing up on the South Side of Chicago, at a time when the practice was rampant. Educator Linda Darling-Hammond has also described ESSA’s retention of high-stakes testing for the lowest-performing schools, which are in low-income communities, as a form of educational redlining: “Why Is Washington Redlining Our Schools?,” Nation, January 30, 2012.
Many factors contribute: Several perspectives on the achievement gap: Hoff (2013); Richardson (2008); Magnuson & Duncan (2006); Barton & Coley (2009); Washington, Terry, & Seidenberg (2013); Seidenberg (2013).
“East Versus West”: Sharon Begley, “East Versus West: One Sees Big Picture, Other Is Focused,” Wall Street Journal, March 28, 2003.
A good place to look is the reading data: Motoko Rich, Amanda Cox, and Matthew Bloch, “Money, Race and Success: How Your School District Compares,” New York Times, April 29, 2016, http://goo.gl/yVrTRF.
Studies of African American youth: Gosa & Alexander (2007).
These kinds of data: In analyses using a large longitudinal survey, Fryer & Levitt (2006) observed that the achievement gap present in kindergarten can be accounted for by a small number of factors related to SES. However, the gap also increased through the first several years of school for reasons they could not identify. It may be that standard SES measures are less valid for African Americans than whites (Rothstein & Wozny 2013) or that effects of SES multiply as school demands increase. It may also be that other factors such as language background start to assume more importance in school.
Children from lower-income families: Hart & Risley (1995). They used the labels “professional,” “working-class,” and “welfare,” which I’ve renamed as SES levels. The follow-up study on reading achievement: Walker et al. (1994).
Variability in spoken-language acquisition: Fernald, Marchman, & Weisleder (2013).
Recognition of the importance: Duncan & Sojourner (2013).
a study of fifty-three low-income mothers: Weizman & Snow (2001).
Similar variation: Kena et al. (2015); Horton-Ikard & Miller (2004); Gosa & Alexander (2007).
“Parents’ verbal engagement”: Fernald & Weisleder (2015). The study of the impact of teachers’ speech to children is Dickinson & Sprague (2003).
Most African American children: Woolfram (2004).
The question is not: AAE is linguistically unremarkable, an example of dialect variation as it occurs in all languages. The breakthrough research establishing this fact was conducted by sociolinguist William Labov (1972) and extended by many others.
Part of the “achievement gap”: These conditions were first pointed out to me by Julie Washington.
This occurs for several reasons: In fact the conditions governing the deletions of final phonemes are complex, and deletions are always optional. Basic facts about how often phonemes are omitted for a given word or by individual speakers are not known because the questions have not been adequately studied.
For an AAE speaker: Some of these phenomena also occur in the Southern White English dialect, and the impact on reading would be expected to extend to those speakers. See Wolfram (1974); Oetting & Kent (2004).
The impact of such pronunciation: Brown et al. (2015).
Acquiring this additional linguistic expertise: Bialystok et al. (2009).
A speaker of a minority dialect: It is also more difficult to identify AAE speakers with developmental spoken-language impairments because features that are indicative of an impairment in MAE can be grammatical in AAE: Oetting & McDonald (2001).
For verbally proficient children: Terry et al. (2010).
The impact of dialect differences: The issue was examined in the 1970s and 1980s, but the findings were inconclusive and the methods used do not hold up by modern standards. In recent years researchers have started to investigate the issue again, building on advances in research methods and findings about reading and language.
The evidence that speaking: Some representative studies: Terry et al. (2010); Charity, Scarborough, & Griffin (2004); Terry et al. (2012).
The findings are particularly sensitive: History of racist characterizations of black speech: Baratz & Baratz (1970).
I have used computational models: See Brown et al. (2015).
Both Australia and Canada have: Siegel (2010). For similar issues in Arabic, see Levin et al. (2008), and in Finland, see Latomaa & Nuolijärvi (2002).
Preservice teacher education rarely includes: Moats (1999, 2009).
negative perceptions of AAE: Blake & Cutler (2003).
Having to learn two dialects: From a biography of Condoleezza Rice (Mabry 2008, 13): “Then as now, many African American parents told their children, ‘You have to be twice as good.’ Meaning, they had to be twice as good as white people to receive the same level of respect, opportunity or status. ‘You were taught that you were good enough, but you might have to be twice as good given you’re black,’ Condoleezza Rice often recalled.” New data from the National Bureau of Economic Research (http://www.nber.org/papers/w21612) shows this to be essentially true with respect to getting and keeping jobs: Gillian B. White, “Black Workers Really Do Need to Be Twice as Good,” Atlantic, October 7, 2015.
Compelling children to learn MAE: Dudley-Marling & Lucas (2009).
“Often powerful”: Steiner & Rozen (2004).
with particular attention: For an example of casual bias, see Jennifer Holladay, “The Character of Our Content: A Parent Confronts Bias in Early Elementary Literature,” Rethinking Schools 27, no. 2 (winter 2012–2013), http://goo.gl/aFuCH. On tenacity, perseverence, and grit, see Duckworth et al. (2007). On the impact of poverty and racial bias: Wilson (2011).
As agents of social justice: Sleeter (1996, 152), for example, sees multicultural education as “a collaborative process involving dialog and bonding across racial and ethnic boundaries for the purpose of forging greater equality and social justice.” See also Stinson et al. (2012), who discuss pedagogical practices that link the teaching of mathematics to social justice issues.
“Using a theoretical approach”: Hassett (2006).
For lower-SES individuals: Heritability of reading depends on SES: Hart et al. (2013). Similar effects have been found for parental education (Friend, DeFries, & Olson 2008) and educational quality (Taylor et al. 2010). Note that although heritability is a measure of genetic influence on behavior, these heritability differences do not arise from the genome but rather from the impact of the environment on gene expression, brain, and behavior.

with particular attention: for an example of casual bias, see jennifer holladay, “the character of our content: a parent confronts bias in early elementary literature,” rethinking schools 27, no. 2 (winter 2012–2013), http://goo.gl/afuch. on tenacity, perseverence, and grit, see duckworth et al. (2007). on the impact of poverty and racial bias: wilson (2011).
as agents of social justice: sleeter (1996, 152), for example, sees multicultural education as “a collaborative process involving dialog and bonding across racial and ethnic boundaries for the purpose of forging greater equality and social justice.” see also stinson et al. (2012), who discuss pedagogical practices that link the teaching of mathematics to social justice issues.
“using a theoretical approach”: hassett (2006).
for lower-ses individuals: heritability of reading depends on ses: hart et al. (2013). similar effects have been found for parental education (friend, defries, & olson 2008) and educational quality (taylor et al. 2010). note that although heritability is a measure of genetic influence on behavior, these heritability differences do not arise from the genome but rather from the impact of the environment on gene expression, brain, and behavior.

Spain seen as a role model for the Euro zone.
The European Union has just raised it forecast for Spanish growth and is hailing Spain as a role model for other European countries. The forecast is now been raised to 2.3% from a lower 1.7% just three months ago. This is the biggest upward forecast throughout the Euro zone.
Spain was in recession for three years to 2014. Now with more consolidation in the Spanish economy growth and a rise in employment is forecast for the next two years. The lowering of oil prices recently and the exchange rate being favourable for non Euro zone countries and their nationals are all adding to the positive vibe that Spain is experiencing.
These figures along with the BBVA´s research published earlier this week that says that consumer confidence is also growing gives Spain a good opportunity in the next couple of years.
Also expected to rise is the number of people employed in Spain in the next two years.
The Spanish Government had openly criticised the lower forecasts published by the European Union in the latter part of 2014.
The new EU figures are more in line with the IMF forecast of 2% growth for Spain during 2015.
All of these figures are a boost to the real estate market, with agents such as Algorfa Real Estate finding more inquiries from potential clients outside of the Euro zone looking for properties slightly away from the coast in towns such as Algorfa and the surrounding areas.

People derive a sense of identity or value from living near the ocean, visiting coastal or marine locations or just knowing that such places and their characteristic species exist.
This goal tries to capture the aspects of the coastal and marine system that people value as part of their cultural identity by measuring two subgoals: the condition of iconic species and the condition of lasting special places.
Iconic species and protected places symbolize the cultural, spiritual, aesthetic and other intangible benefits that people value for a region.
64 The goal score for Goal: Sense of Place is 64 out of 100. The global average score is 70 out of 100.
It is estimated that in the near future the score for Goal: Sense of Place will improve roughly +9%.
WHat encompasses sense of place?
This goal contains two subgoals. Iconic Species measures the condition of culturally important species; and Lasting Special Places measures the percentage of area that is protected within a band from 3 nautical miles offshore to 1 km inland.

text: The 8 x 4 Lotus by Globel Pent Metal Shed in anthracite grey provides you with plenty of additional storage space for your garden at fantastic value for money, particularly when compared to similar quality metal sheds. Manufactured from ribbed steel sheeting and with a solid, heavy gauge galvanised steel frame, this makes the shed sturdy and robust. This high tensile, 0.3mm hot-dipped galvanised steel is also low maintenance, requiring minimal upkeep after construction. Simply wiping it down occasionally should be more than enough to maintain your shed’s appearance. It also comes with a 15 year manufacturer’s warranty, so you can be sure you are receiving a high quality shed that will last. The galvanised steel walls are finished with five coats of paint and are made to withstand challenging environments. For example, you can rest assured your shed will be protected from rusting in coastal areas where the high salt content of the atmosphere would take its toll on inferior quality metal buildings. These features also make the exterior highly resistant to scratch damage as well as rusting, meaning it will maintain its attractive appearance through its lifetime.

Clint Eastwood remains one of the giants of cinema because every performance just oozes integrity. Even as Eastwood aged, we, as an audience, got the sense that here was a man that refuses to compromise on the things that mattered. Rather like John Wayne you imagined that Eastwood spent his career playing a heightened version of himself.
Over the space of 50 years we got the sense that Clint Eastwood, both on and off screen, was a man of few words but those that he did utter were very important.
In the political thriller, In The Line of Fire, directed by Das Boot film-maker Wolfgang Petersen, Clint Eastwood plays Frank Horrigan, a Secret Service agent who is haunted by his past. He is a member of an elite squad of agents charged with protecting the President of the United States. He was on duty the day that JFK visited Dallas and he still cannot forgive his shortcomings which allowed Kennedy to be assassinated.
The first thing that grabs your attention – and the most refreshing to be honest – is the fact that this is the first movie where Clint Eastwood plays his age. Although, this is a tense psychological thriller, Eastwood and Petersen allow themselves the time to poke fun at Eastwood’s advancing years.
He’s shown to be out-of-breath while running alongside the President’s motorcade and for a while he is made to look as if his time has passed. He is seen as a bit of dinosaur by some of his younger associates and when a female Secret Service agent Lily Raines, played with sharp-timing by Rene Russo, joins the Presidential protection squad, a few misjudged sexist quips seem to have him on his way to his retirement party.
But, experience does count for something and Frank Horrigan is not the misogynist pig that he appears. The President is running for re-election, he’s touring the country, glad-handing the party faithful, meeting the public and seducing the people with deep pockets so they will fund his campaign.
While he is so visible, a mysterious figure wants to make a name for himself by killing the President and he wants to exploit Horrigan and his nightmares to do it. He plays mind-games with Horrigan during late night phone calls and gets the aging secret service agent jumpy, prompting him to sound false alarms, so further reducing his credibility in the eyes of his colleagues.
However, the one person who stands by him and appreciates his instincts is Lily Raines. Unlike many films of this type, she is not interested in him romantically, but she enjoys being his partner protecting the President.
It seems that Mitch Leary, as the mysterious assassin calls himself, is a clever, master of disguise and enjoys playing a complicated game of cat and mouse with Horrigan and Lily.
After Horrigan sounds a couple of false alarms, he’s taken off the White House detail, and has to rely on Lily to keep him up to date on the President’s movements and security arrangement while he tries to unmask the real Mitch Leary.
Wolfgang Petersen keeps the plot moving at a cracking pace, while still maintaining a wonderful degree of tension. As an audience you fed with tiny crumbs of evidence at the same time as Horrigan which means you are kept guessing right up until the last minute.
His real achievement as a film-maker is to create time for character-development during what is already atmospheric, incident-packed film. We see Frank and Lily slowly bond over this complex and twisted case.
It’s not a traditional romance but it is a superior-kind of buddy movie. This is a movie primarily-focussed on solving a case and laying to rest ghosts of the past.
The performances of all three leads are superb and no-one relies on cliché or caricature to keep the plot moving. These are three-dimensional characters and it is because you care about them is why the film is as effective as it is.
Eastwood and Russo unsurprisingly have the bulk of the screentime but Malkovich is never far from our thoughts. Mysterious Mitch is a huge, inescapable presence in the film. Malkovich relishes the opportunity to make him as creepy as possible and yet we still do understand what drives him. Wolfgang Petersen proved with Das Boot that he is a film-maker of real skill and this proves that he is equally talented in the thriller sphere.
He adds depth to the situation by allowing character to drive the plot and his flashbacks to the 1963 Kennedy years are brilliant. Dropping young Eastwood into the Dallas footage is a wonderfully convincing.
The film has a tough but satisfying conclusion but by the end we are ready for it. Like all good films In The Line of Fire works on many levels. It’s a first class thriller but it’s also a compelling examination of aging and the value of experience in the work place.

I made an Impossible Lemon Pie last week but I didn't care for it. It was gluten free and the texture was wrong. I'll have to try a couple more variations before I post that one. Fortunately my dad will anything that is put in front of him so nothing goes to waste.
This one is called Impossible Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes. It isn't nearly as good as my Pumpkin Pie in a crust, but it is so easy to make. It isn't bad and would be worth the effort. I put all the ingredients in my Vitamix and mixed it on low speed until combined. This recipe could easily be made by stirring all the ingredients together.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 12 cup muffin tin with silicone liners, foil liners sprayed with cooking spray or just spray the cups with cooking spray. Either of these three methods will make it easy to take the cupcake out after it’s cooked. Don't use paper liners because they make it difficult to remove the cupcakes from the tin.
I didn't use liners, just sprayed the muffin tins.
Mix the pumpkin, sugar, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract and milk. Add the flour, pumpkin spice, salt, baking powder and baking soda to the mixture. Fill each muffin cup with 1/3 cup of the mixture. Bake for twenty minutes and let cool for twenty minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle more pumpkin pie spice on top and serve. Makes 12 cupcakes.
It makes 12 pumpkin pie cupcakes. Store in the refrigerator out of the tins.

Thank you so much for coming to church this weekend. It was a thrill to see you and your entire family worshipping with the rest of your church family. I know that you had to get up earlier than you might have preferred, fought to get kids ready in their “church clothes”, swigged down some coffee quickly, and rushed to be with us on Sunday. For that I am greatly appreciative!
However, I noticed something interesting this week. You didn’t arrive until 30 minutes after church started, and our services are only 60 minutes long. This can be problematic, which I’m sure you understand. Let me say that being late isn’t the issue, it’s the consistently being late that is a greater concern. We all have “those Sundays” when everything that could go wrong does, and you get to church much later than anticipated. I’m speaking more towards being late every…single…weekend. Please know that you are communicating the wrong message to your child, those that work with your child, and all the other children attending each weekend.
I can hear it now, “What are you talking about? This isn’t really any of your business!” And I agree, but please let me ask you to consider what message you might be sending by being late every weekend.
First, you’re asking your kid to play major catch-up. // If the service is 60 minutes long, and you arrive to drop off the kid after the first 30 minutes, then they have probably already missed the following: Praise and Worship, Introduction of Bottom Line elements, Bible Story, and many times your arrival corresponds with the most intense and most serious time of the entire morning. That’s right, by being late your kid has missed everything the kids consider “the good stuff”. In Kid’s ministry things move fast, and we put a premium on quickly moving from one thing to the next. We’re always teaching our bottom line; but by missing the first 30 minutes your child will have difficulty grasping and internalizing the message.
Second, it’s a distraction. // This is the one that I feel the worst about bothering you about. Apologies as I step on your well-intentioned toes, but here I go… When you arrive 30 minutes late to a 4 year old class, it means the teacher has to stop what they’re doing to check-in your kid. That might mean stopping the lesson right in the middle of a teaching time, when they’ve already worked hard to capture the gnat-like attention of a class of 4 year olds. It’s quite simply a major distraction to everyone already in the classroom. It’s also a major distraction to your own child. There are some major embarrassment and separation issues related to dropping off a child into an environment that isn’t prepped for drop-off and check-in time. It’s hard on your own child in a way that I know you would never intend.
Third, it’s less than the best. // Everyone wants what’s best for your child. Everyone on my team at the church wants your child to have the most positive experience possible on a Sunday morning, and I have no doubt that you want the best as well. When your child arrives late to church, it’s quite simply giving them less than what is best. My team at the church has planned every minute of our time with your child to help illustrate God’s redemptive plan and His love for your children. Let us have as much of this time as possible!
So you may be asking, “What can I do to help this not be a problem?” That’s a great question, and here are some solutions.
If you’re running late, then wait until the next service starts and give your kid the 100% experience at the upcoming later service. Of course, this only applies if your church has more than one service, and if you were trying to get to the early service.
If you’re running late, apologize to the people trying to get your child situated into the environment quickly. A kind word does wonders for a teacher that has to deal with distraction you’ve created. The fact is that being late happens to all of us, but recognize the burden it is on those leading the classrooms. Just apologize, and act like it matters.
If you’re running late, then promise yourself and your family that this will be the last time. Work hard to be on-time, if for no other reason that because it’s best for your kids. That’s reason enough isn’t it?
Thanks for bringing your kids to us each weekend, and know that we love, love, love having them with us. It’s a thrill to minister to all the different parts of your family, and you are to be commended for the intentional effort you make every week to worship as a family.
haha – funny but so true. i like to tell our kids we’re respecting people’s time when we show up on time/early (which is really hard with four under 5 yrs old…reason why we don’t try to commit to things often…haha).

Will hi-tech monitoring of drivers reduce accidents? | Norton & Norton, P.C.
Moreover, this technology allows insurance companies to reward good drivers with lower prices while giving careless drivers appropriate and timely consequences in the form of more expensive car insurance. The whole process is called Usage-Based Insurance, or UBI. Basically, through a phone application, the insurance company can check to see how often a driver is on the road late at night, and, thus, possibly fatigued. The application can also check a driver's speed and determine how often a driver has to hit the brakes hard to avoid an accident. Frequent hard-braking is a sign of many poor driving habits, such as inattentiveness or distracted driving.
Some studies suggest these apps do actually prevent auto accidents. Specifically, one study found that drivers who sign up for UBI technology reduced their number of hard-braking incidents by over one-fifth. This suggests that the technology really does make drivers more mindful of their driving. The technology appeared to particularly help both young and female drivers.
With or without this technology, however, drivers in the Kansas City area should always operate their vehicles safely. In fact, they are constantly under an obligation to be on the lookout for other motorists and keep them safe. When they fail to do so, their victims may ask for compensation via a legal filing.

Ask an Expert: Can the flu lead to such a disease?
Can the flu lead to such a disease?
I have two friends that have recently been diagnosed with autoimmune diseases; one has been diagnosed with myasthenia gravis, and the other has not had a name put to her diagnosis as yet. Both friends, not in physical contact with each other at that period, had flu symptoms just before they contracted the disease(s). Are flu symptoms a precursor to autoimmune diseases and/or can the flu lead to such a disease?
With Myasthenia Gravis, there is an autoimmune trigger within the body (thymus pathology) that is often the driving factor in the autoimmune attack of myasthenia gravis.
I say this because in the large majority of cases of Myasthenia Gravis, thymus hyperplasia or a thymoma is found. This is not to say that it is impossible for a viral infection in rare circumstances to trigger the disease. It has not been identified as a strong factor.
As mentioned, viral infections can often worsen myasthenia gravis in patients who already have the disease. Hope this information helps.

To the editor:Saddam Hussein personified the old dictum, "Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely."
Since Saddam was responsible for the deaths of more Muslims than any other modern person, I was surprised and perplexed by the outrage expressed by many other Middle Eastern Muslims at how he died. I could not care less about the respect, or lack thereof, shown this mass murderer.
To me this is analogous to an improbable and fictitious scenario in which the Jewish people would protest the way we killed Hitler.
My wife's uncle, a World War II pilot, who was shot down behind enemy lines on D-Day and is still living, had a sign on his desk that said, "Don't be so open-minded that your brains fall out."
