Sea-level rise – an unavoidable threat
> Since the end of the last ice age to the present day, sea level has risen by around 125 metres. This has natural as well as man-made causes. However, the human-induced greenhouse effect is intensifying this process. Its main effects are thermal expansion of water and melting of glaciers. This could result in the sea level rising by a further 5 metres within just 300 years. Loss of habitats and cultural treasures
Sea-level rise is one of the most serious consequences of global warming. No one can really imagine how the coasts will look if the waters rise by several metres over the course of a few centuries. Coastal areas are among the most densely populated regions of the world

Sea-level rise – an unavoidable threat

Content: Since then, sea level has remained largely unchanged, apart from minor fluctuations amounting to a few centimetres per century. 3.2 > Every time there is a storm, the North Sea continues its relentless erosion of the coast near the small English town of Happisburgh. The old coastal defences are largely ineffective. Here, a Second World War bunker has fallen from the eroded cliffs, while elsewhere along the coast, homes have already been lost to the sea. Sea-level rise Sea-level rise has various causes. Eustatic rise results from the melting of glaciers and the discharge of these water masses into the sea. Isostatic rise, on the other hand, is caused by tectonic shifts such as the rise and fall of the Earth’s crustal plates. Thermal expansion, in turn, is caused by the expansion of seawater due to global warming. Measured against the minor changes occurring over the last 6000 years, the global sea-level rise of 18 cm over the course of the last century is considerable. Over the past decade alone, sea level rose by 3.2 cm, according to measurements taken along the coast in the last century and, since 1993, satellite monitoring of the elevation of land and water surfaces worldwide (satellite altimetry).

Admittedly, these are only short periods of time, but the measurements nonetheless point to a substantial increase in the rate of sea-level rise. Experts differ in their opinions about the extent to which specific factors play a role here: Between 15 and 50 per cent of sea-level rise is attributed to the temperature-related expansion of seawater; Between 25 and 45 per cent is thought to be caused by the melting of mountain glaciers outside the polar regions; Between 15 and 40 per cent is ascribed to the melting of the Greenland and Antarctic ice caps.

World War II Technology
Technology during World War II played a crucial role in determining the outcome of the greatest war of all. Much of it had begun development during the interwar years of the 1920s and 1930s, some was developed in response to lessons learned during the war, and yet more was only beginning to be developed as the war ended. The massive research and development demands of the war had a great impact on the scientific community. Given the scope of the war and the rapid technological escalation which happened during the war, a vast array of technology was employed, as different nations and different units found themselves equipped with different levels of technology. Military technology developments spanned across all areas of industry. Effects on Warfare
Almost all types of technology were utilized, although main areas of technology which saw major developments were: Weaponry; including ships, vehicles, aircraft, artillery, rocketry, small arms, and biological, chemical and atomic weapons. Logistical support; including vehicles necessary for transporting soldiers and supplies, such as trains, trucks, and aircraft.

Content: How Many People Died In World War 2 | World War 2 Casualties
How Many People Died in World War 2? No one is 100 percent certain of the number of people who died in World War 2 but it experts believe the figure is around the 50-70 million people killed in as a result of World War 2. It can vary as to were you look, as for example Wikipedia has a great article on how many people died in world war 2 World War2 which leans towards the scary figure of 72 million people. It is important to note that these figures are even more scary when you break them down. World War 2 was split into two sides, the Allies (UK, USA) and Axis (Germany Italy and Japan) Of those killed, 61 million were on the Allied side and 11 million were on the Axis side, so the losses where massive. It is important to note that not all the deaths were soldiers, lots of civilians, Jews, Women and Children were also killed. A brief summary of the number of dead can be found below: Germany the overall total is given as just under 7.4 million. Soviet soldiers roughly around 8.7 million Soviet soldiers died in World War 2. British 700,000 military casualitits and 60,000 civilian deaths
Estimated USSR losses now stand at 26.6 million.

It is bordered by Venezuela, Colombia and Panama to the south, Central American countries (Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Honduras and Belize) on the west; with the Greater Antilles (Cuba, Jamaica, the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico) on the north and the Lesser Antilles on the east. This sea covers an area of approximately 2,754,000 km 2 (1,063,000 square miles). The deepest site in this sea is the Cayman Trench between Cuba and Jamaica at 7500 m below the surface, although average depth is 2200 m (Spalding et al. 2001). The complete area of the Caribbean Sea, including its numerous islands, is known as the Wider Caribbean. The Wider Caribbean Region includes 35 states and territories that border two interconnected watersheds: the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. It includes continental countries, insular nations and dependent territories.

Cabinet departments, independent agencies, government corporations, and independent regulatory commissions are four different types of the operating parts of the bureaucratic whole. Departments are organized hierarchically, with a cabinet secretary at the top, several top administrators and undersecretaries beneath him or her, a specialized bureau level, and oftentimes many divisions, offices, and units within bureaus as well. “Clientele agencies” are those executive departments and agencies like, for example, the Department of Agriculture, that serve and represent particular interests in society; other examples include the Departments of Interior, Labor, and Commerce. “Agencies for the maintenance of the union” are those that, in performing essential functions like securing governmental revenue and maintaining internal and external security, keep the government going;

Content: Personal transportation. Most of us drive to work in our own cars. The social engineers have almost totally failed to get us to use public transportation. The failure of car pooling in spite of reserving car pool lanes for them is especially telling about the preference for privacy. My late second wife, a Sierra Club member inclined to environmentalism, tried car pooling to work (a 45 minute drive) but gave it up after a short time. She said it felt like going to work 45 minutes early and leaving work 45 minutes late. It seems to me that sociologists haven't studied this human desire, and failure to understand it has led to delusions among planners. Foolish slogans about "sprawl" won't help the social engineers herd us. Past Technological Advances
The progress described above is due to technological advance and the social advances that have permitted the technological advances to be used. Technology is available worldwide, but its effectiveness in raising the standard of living has depended on social achievements - a market economy, peace and the rule of law, education and not letting economic parasitism get too much out of hand.

Basic Assumptions
Basic assumptions are our long-learnt, automatic responses and established opinions. We are, ourselves, almost always unaware of the nature of our own basic assumptions, but they are enacted through our behavior - what we say and do. Basic assumptions are usually rooted in our infancy, early family life and social context. More widely, assumptions shaping our behavior relate to cultural context (See East vs. West: Philosophy and Cultural Values)
Attitudes
Attitudes are the established ways of responding to people and situations that we have learned, based on the beliefs, values and assumptions we hold. Attitude become manifest through our behavior.

The Art of Effective Questioning
How you ask questions is very important in establishing a basis for effective communication. Effective questions open the door to knowledge and understanding. The art of questioning lies in knowing which questions to ask and when. Address your first question to yourself: what would you search for if you had a magic e-book that had the right answers to any question? The answer will help you compose the right questions. Choosing Questions
"A prudent question is one half of wisdom ." ~ Francis Bacon
Ask a specific question if you want to hear a specific answer. Open – as opposed to leading – questions are those that cannot be answered with a straight "yes" or "no".

Holistic Thinking
Focusing on the whole, not the parts
If you look at something from one point of view only,
you can see very little of it. Holistic Thinking Defined
Holistic thinking is the ability to see things as a whole (or holistically), to understand and predict the many different types of relationships between the many elements in a complex system, and also perceive the whole picture through sensing its large-scale patterns . Holistic Thinking vs. Analytic Thinking
Holistic thinking is characterized by dialectical reasoning and involves understanding a system by sensing its large-scale patterns and reacting to them. Holistic thinkers believe that events are the products of both internal and external forces and situations. They tend to give broad attention to the big picture, context, relationships, perceptions , conflicts, and background elements in visual scenes... More

"I shall proceed from the simple to the complex. But in war more than in any other subject we must begin by looking at the nature of the whole; for here more than elsewhere the part and the whole must always be thought of together." ~ Carl Von Clausewitz
The concept of "wholeness" is very important in general system analysis. The system must be viewed as a whole and modified only through changes in its parts.

This is, definitely, a valuable perspective to assist organisations improve performance.

Title: HOLISTIC Thinking - definition, applications of holistic approach, systems thinking, big picture, great thinker
Headings: Holistic Thinking
Content: Systems thinking is your ability to see things as a whole (or holistically) including the many different types of relationships between the many elements in a complex system. Yet, 'holistic thinking' is a wider concept that involves perceiving a system through sensing its large-scale patterns . Systems thinking is often focussed on problem solving through understanding elements of the system and their interconnections. >>>
This is, definitely, a valuable perspective to assist organisations improve performance. However, adopting other conceptions of holism, such as The Tree of a successful business (see example), 6Ws of corporate growth (see example), 5 Basic Elements of a winning organisation (see example), or working both smart and hard, may open up new perspectives which may also be very valuable. Example
5 Basic Elements of Innompic Games
For instance, when applied in social situations, holistic thinking involves sensitivity, intuition and tact. Before modifications of the parts can be made for the overall benefit of the system, a thorough knowledge of how each part functions and the interrelationships among the parts must be present.

World War 1 casualties
Content: Casualties | WW 1
World War 1 casualties
The historical literature on World War I is still arguing about the number of WWI casualties, with a range between 6 and 13 million. The main reason for the different estimates lies in the term 'loss', which in the military terminology of the time included all those soldiers who were no longer able to fight, and who may have been dead, wounded or captured. Nevertheless, some figures relating to military losses are more accurate, specifically those concerning soldiers who died on the battlefield or as prisoners of war. Of the 60 million soldiers who fought in the First World War, over 9 million were killed — 14% of the combat troops or 6,000 dead soldiers per day. The armies of the Central Powers mobilised 25 million soldiers and 3.5 million of them died. The Entente Powers deployed 40 million soldiers and lost more than 5 million. The mortality rate ranged between 6% and 30%, with the highest in the armies of Serbia, Montenegro and the Turkish Empire, mainly due to large epidemics of cholera, typhoid and smallpox, against which the armies of other countries vaccinated their troops. Infectious diseases did also spread in other armies, but with a lower mortality rate. In absolute numbers, major battles on all fronts claimed the highest number of casualties, primarily because of the technology of warfare based on explosive artillery shells. The death toll among prisoners of war amounted to between 5 and 10 % of prisoners.

World War 1 casualties
Content: After the war, the number of those disabled from the war in the Slovenian part of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes amounted to 11,467, and about 30,000 war widows had to take care of around 49,000 war orphans. Data on civilian casualties from WWI are very limited and uncertain, suggesting an estimated 6 million casualties among the civilian population. The highest death rate was caused by hunger, deprivation and disease, while we should not neglect the civilian casualties suffered during military occupation and retaliation (Belgium, Serbia, Galicia, Isonzo Front), among which the Armenian genocide in Turkey, which claimed between 1 and 2 million dead Armenians, stands out.

Jefferson defended his role in the creation of the defining document of the United States very proudly but this would not be his last great achievement. One of Thomas Jefferson's finest accomplishments while he was president was the Louisiana Purchase in 1803. This acquisition of land doubled the nation's size and helped fulfil the demands for western expansion, also making the US closer to completing their Manifest Destiny. Jefferson then financed the Lewis and Clark expedition which in turn gave Americans first knowledge of this vast land of rich resources. Jefferson's influence in shaping the country did not stop there for he made several other admirable deeds in his lifetime. Read More

Civil War During the American Civil War, which lasted from 1861-1865, over 620,000 accounted soldiers were killed. Known as the "the first modern war", historians generally agree that the reason for this was because this was a time of transition for the military. Armies and Navies were still using tactics where they would gather large forces of firepower to bear on the enemy. At the same time, weapons were being developed which were accurate and lethal well beyond any arms of the earlier conflicts

In 1861, the American Civil War commenced after many years of tension building between the Northern and Southern states. The main reason of the tension was said to be the debate of slavery between the North and South, and although some documents support this claim, it is false. The war had been brewing since 1607, before slavery was even introduced to the colonies that would become the United States of America.

"I do not think much of a man who is not wiser today than he was yesterday." -Abraham Lincoln The Civil War was a historical conflict between the North and the South involving the issues of slavery and political and economic differences. Soon sectionalism reached it maximum, and, in 1861, the war had begun. In 1863—the midpoint of the war—the Battle of Gettysburg turned the tide in the Union’s favor.

A Visit of Charity In the short story of "A Visit of Charity" by Eudora Welty, a fourteen-year-old girl visits two women in a home for the elderly to bring them a plant and to earn points for Campfire Girls. Welty implies through this story that neither the society that supports the home nor the girl, Marian, knows the meaning of the word "charity." Webster’s New World College Dictionary defines "charity" as "the love of man for his fellow men: an act of good will or affection." But instead of

The Marshall Plan
The Marshall Plan First and foremost, a great deal of Europe’s success would not have happened without its initial aid from the United States. After helping destroy so much of the continent, the U.S. pumped billions and billions of dollars back into the European economy through The Marshall Plan. It was named after Secretary of State George C. Marshall, who said “The world of suffering people looks to us for leadership. Their thoughts, however, are not concentrated alone on this problem. They

Significance Of The Marshall Plan On Europe
What was the significance of the Marshall Plan on Post-war Europe? * FOURTH DRAFT* September 2, 1945, marked the end of the Second World War, a day in which soldiers could finally leave foreign shores for home, but they would soon discover that home was not how they left it. For World War II had taken its toll on Europe. On both sides all that had been built before now lay in ruin and desolation, with economic disaster and extreme poverty now left to govern its inhabitants. Industrial production was

Throughout history America has always been known as being one of the first countries to step in to help or fix a problem. This was the same case when it came to the Marshall Plan. Although many may say the Marshal Plan is another example of imperialism in the guise of help, this is not the case because was it fulfilling its moral responsibility to help those in need. World War II was a devastating war that lasted from about 1939 to 1945. When many think of World War II, they think of the devastation

Investigating the Factors that Affect the Rate of Photosynthesis
Content: · Light energy from the sun
· Chlorophyll to absorb light energy
· Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and from respiration in plant
cells
· Water which is absorbed by the roots and transported to the leaves
by the xylem tubes. Photosynthesis can be summarised by the equation: [IMAGE] 6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2
The reactants are Carbon dioxide and Water; the products are Glucose
and Oxygen. The factors that affect the rate of photosynthesis are: · Light intensity- if the light is brighter, then the rate of
photosynthesis increases and visa versa. · Water supply- if a plant cannot absorb enough water, then the rate
of photosynthesis decreases. · Carbon dioxide concentration- if the percentage of carbon dioxide in
the atmosphere increases, so does the rate of photosynthesis. · Temperature- if the temperature increases, then the rate of
photosynthesis also increases, (however, temperatures above 40OC can
damage a plant and photosynthesis stops because the chlorophyll gets
too hot). The factor I will be investigating is light intensity;

the carbon dioxide level, such as Hydrogen carbonate.

Does raising the light intensity increase the rate of photosynthesis? Does raising the light intensity increase the rate of photosynthesis? Aim: To see if raising the light intensity increases the rate of
photosynthesis. Prediction: I predict that raising the light intensity will increase
the rate of photosynthesis. I think this because light is the most
important thing needed for photosynthesis. I then think that the rate
of photosynthesis will stay the same when it reaches a certain point. I think this because the plant may use up all of the carbon dioxide
(Sodium hydro carbonate) and the plant can have as much light as it
needs but if it does not have any carbon dioxide it will not be able
to photosynthesise. The temperature also has to be right.

How can I display my PowerPoint presentation to an audience on one screen whilst viewing my notes and controling the slide show on another monitor? PowerPoint can display your presentation on one screen, or projector, to an audience, whilst allowing you to read notes, and control your presentation from another screen without your audience seeing what you are reading. In order to achieve this your system hardware must support dual monitors. Open the presentation you wish to show on one of the monitors, screens, or projectors, connected to your computer
Select "Set Up Show..." from the Slide Show main menu option. The Set Up Show dialog box appears.

Content: Frequently these persons buy a few acres along the road and build a new house. Sometimes they buy a farm, occupy the farmhouse, and rent the land to a neighboring farmer. In neither instance could the movement of this city family into the country be considered as in any way restoring 'farm' population." There is another group, however, that does not share Secretary Jardine's fear of a future food shortage and an era of high prices because of the trek to town of a portion of the farm population. Under the circumstances, they affirm, this is the best thing that, could happen for the farmers remaining on the soil. The transfer not only reduces competition in producing farm crops, but increases the number of purchasers of farm products. This is the attitude of the Syracuse Post-Standard, and to the Council Bluffs Nonpareil "it is entirely probable that our immediate farm problem may be worked out eventually by this very decrease in farm population." Says this Iowa paper: "If the number of persons on the farms continues to decrease, and the total population of the country continues to increase, there soon will be so many demanding products of the farm and so few furnishing them that the prices for farm products will rise. Good prices on the farm will bring the householders back there."

The 56th quadrennial United States presidential election was held on November 4, 2008. Outgoing Republican President George W. Bush's policies and actions and the American public's desire for change were key issues throughout the campaign. During the presidential election campaign, the major-party candidates ran on a platform of change and reform in Washington. Domestic policy and the economy eventually emerged as the main themes in the last few months of the election campaign after the onset of the 2008 economic crisis. Democrat Barack Obama, then junior United States Senator from Illinois, defeated Republican John McCain. Nine states changed allegiance from the 2004 election. Each had voted for the Republican nominee in 2004 and contributed to Obama's sizable Electoral College victory. The selected electors from each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia voted for President and Vice President of the United States on December 15, 2008. Those votes were tallied before a joint session of Congress on January 8, 2009.

Those votes were tallied before a joint session of Congress on January 8, 2009. Obama received 365 electoral votes, and McCain 173. There were several unique aspects of the 2008 election. The election was the first in which an African American was elected President. It was also the first time two sitting senators ran against each other.

Minnesota
Minnesota, cobbled together from land that was part of the original United States, land acquired in the Louisiana Purchase and land acquired from Great Britain in 1818, joined the Union in May, 1858. Minnesota voted exclusively Republican from 1860 through the onset of the Great Depression, except for 1912 when it sided with Progressive candidate (and former Republican) Theodore Roosevelt. From 1932 onward, the state has primarily voted Democratic, last voting Republican during Nixon’s landslide victory in 1972. Outside of Washington, D.C., it is the longest Democratic streak in the country. In 1984, Minnesotans gave homegrown Senator Mondale his only state in the lopsided loss to Ronald Reagan. While the Democratic winning streak grew to 11 straight elections in 2016, Hillary Clinton won by a surprisingly narrow 1.5% over Donald Trump. Joe Biden won by 7% in 2020. Minnesota has had 10 electoral votes since the 1964. It was projected to lose one after the 2020 Census, but edged out New York for the 435th congressional district. ELECTORAL VOTES

Content: When this happens, a lot of people resort to ice packs or ibuprofen to help them get relief. But recently, multiple studies have shown that some vitamins can help you reduce these pains and can even help you prevent them. The following are the three vitamins that are most effective for alleviating muscle pain. 1. Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a water-soluble essential vitamin that is abundantly found in all fruits and vegetables. This vitamin participates in several important biochemical reactions in your body, including collagen generation, fatty-acid metabolism and neurotransmitter creation. This vitamin is also a well known antioxidant. Vitamin C can help you reduce muscle soreness in two ways. Lactic acid removal: During or immediately after your exercise, your muscles have excessive amounts of lactic acid and metabolic wastes built up from the exertion.

Long lines of people waiting to buy the latest iPhone are not as long anymore. That means we need something else to drive the hype and innovation and most importantly sales. The catch is there are few conveniences that till need to be addressed and those that remain might not be mass market appeal items. This is not about the decline of our electronic era, but rather a shift to new products that will get more attention. Two are wearables and smart clothing. They are already a thing, but they are still in their early days. Smart watches and mixed reality glasses are less like the Samsung Note 9 and more like the Nokia 2110. Smart clothing is still just a novelty, and both will not only look to take over some of the functions of your phone, but they will also work more like medical devices than communication tools. Despite so many products having reached not their peak, but ours, there are still many others that are not there yet and possibly others we have yet even to discover.

Pan-Africanism: Our Objective
Content: There is only one final solution to these problems, Pan-Africanism: the total liberation and unification of Africa under scientific socialism. Pan-Africanism is rooted in generational struggle and history to build tribal and territorial states, empires and civilizations, and to politically unify our people and continent. It is an evolutionary and revolutionary developmental historical process of African People, in Africa and abroad, moving from smaller to ever larger and qualitative modes of production with corresponding socio-political structures. The building and construction of Egypt, Nubia, Axiom, Ghana, Mali, Songhai, Monopotapa, Zimbabwe, Ethiopia, Congo, Angola, and tens of thousands of other political and socio-economic entities, attests to the fact that through our own creative genius following the laws of development African People created civilization to improve the quality of our life and demonstrated movement towards continental nation building. This indigenous process was interrupted through countless wars against European and Asiatic invasions, colonization’s and dispersions. The feudal slave traders and owners of Europe and the Americas, and their capitalist successors, sought to deny Africans from World humanity, stating we were divorced from history and devoid of culture. Africa, they blatantly lied, had created no civilization and thus we were outside of the process of World history and culture. Yet, as classes were indigenous to Africa and this process, so was the class struggle. “Socialist revolutionaries seek a complete and fundamental transformation of society and the abolition of privileged classes.”

Reactionary African intellectuals, and their patrons worldwide, attempted to promote these ideas to our People and thus diminish their enthusiasm for their history of struggle, culture, and land. Unfortunately, many progressive and revolutionary forces in the World have attempted to do the same. This ideological view attempted to divide the African Masses, between those North and South of the Sahara, and from those in the African Diaspora, and divorce Pan-Africanism from the international struggle to destroy capitalism, imperialism, and zionism and the fight for socialism. These reactionary African intellectuals drank from the same racist bourgeois well of the capitalist ideologues.

These reactionary African intellectuals drank from the same racist bourgeois well of the capitalist ideologues. A fierce ideological struggle was waged and Sekou Toure weighed in with his revolutionary experience, insight and wisdom. Sekou Toure, in a message sent to Tanzania, at the so-called 6th Pan-Africanist Congress, destroyed the intellectual myths of these reactionaries by making it clear that, “Pan-Africanism is henceforth the class struggle in Africa at the level of Africa and of her external branches. Being not conscious about it would be exposing ourselves to a confusion that imperialism would not miss exploiting. . . Is our friend, the great revolutionary of Cuba, Fidel Castro, not more hated by segregationists, fascists, than Black leaders who have become the accomplishes, the devoted and servile agents of those who exploit their brothers [and sisters] and ridicules cynically the rights of African Peoples?” ( Ahmed Sekou Toure, Revolution, Pan-Africanism, and Culture, page 176-177).

Bullying is a form of child abuse and 4 out of 10 children will drop out of high school this year because they are being bullied at school or abused at home. School Bullying Statistics: 30% of U.S. students in grades six through ten are involved in moderate or frequent bullying - as bullies, as victims, or as both - according to the results of the first national school bullying statistics and cyberbullying statistics survey on this subject. School bullying and cyberbullying are increasingly viewed as an important contributor to youth violence, including homicide and suicide. (Case studies of the shooting at Columbine High School and other U.S. schools have suggested that bullying was a factor in many of the incidents.) Recent School Bullying and Cyberbullying Statistics Show That: 1 out of 4 kids are Bullied. 77% of students are bullied mentally, verbally, & physically. Cyberbullying statistics are rapidly approaching similar numbers, with 43% experiencing cyberbullying. Of the 77% of students that said they had been bullied, 14% of those who were bullied said they experienced severe (bad) reactions to the abuse.

Find an area where the mole has created a long, straight tunnel through the sod. Using a garden tool cut the sod away and secure the trap inside of the tunnel. Replace the sod and flag the area so you remember where the trap was set. The trick to trapping moles is to place the device in an active tunnel. This type of knowledge is gained through experience, which is why hiring a professional for mole removal may be the best idea. How to Get Rid of Moles in the Lawn

Trapping a mole requires experience and knowledge of mole behavior and is often a situation that is best left to a professional. You can attempt to remove the moles yourself, but you will need to learn how to determine if a mole tunnel is active or if it was a one-time feeder tunnel. Placing a trap in an active tunnel is the only way to catch a mole. There are a variety of mole traps. Body gripping traps are the most common, though spear traps and scissor traps are used as well.

If you need immediate assistance, please dial 911.
Content: Gangs can include people of every gender, race, culture and socioeconomic group. Some children and adolescents are motivated to join a gang for a sense of connection or to define a new sense of who they are. Others are motivated by peer pressure, a need to protect themselves and their family, because a family member also is in a gang, or to make money. One of the worst effects of gang membership is the exposure to violence. Gang members may be pressured to commit a crime to become part of the gang. Consequences of gang membership may include exposure to drugs and alcohol, age-inappropriate sexual behavior, difficulty finding a job because of lack of education and work skills, removal from ones family, imprisonment and even death. Risk factors that can contribute to the risk that children and adolescents join a gang include: Growing up in an area with heavy gang activity. A history of gang involvement in the family (family members who are current or former gang members). A history of violence in the home.

If you need immediate assistance, please dial 911.
Content: The long-term emotional and physical damage after sexual abuse can be devastating to the child. Children who experience sexual abuse and other “adverse childhood experiences” (ACEs) such as physical abuse or neglect, have a higher chance of developing depression, posttraumatic stress disorder, drug addiction, and suicidal behaviors later in life. They also have a higher chance of developing physical conditions such as heart disease later in life. This is why it is so important to identify it as soon as possible, seek help for these children, and focus on preventing it in the future. Child sexual abuse often takes place within the family, by a parent, stepparent, sibling or other relative; or outside the home, for example, by a friend, neighbor, childcare person, teacher, or stranger. When sexual abuse has occurred, a child develops many distressing feelings, thoughts and behaviors. Children may be threatened by the abuser and be fearful to tell anyone else, especially if the abuser is someone they know well. No child is prepared to cope with repeated pain and fear of sexual abuse. Even a two or three-year-old, who cannot understand the sexual activity, will suffer physically and emotionally.

Even a young child who knows and cares for the abuser becomes trapped between affection or loyalty for the person, and the fear, pain and betrayal that goes along with the sexual abuse. If the child tries to break away from the sexual relationship, the abuser may threaten the child with violence or loss of love. When sexual abuse occurs within the family, the child may fear the anger, jealousy or shame of other family members, or be afraid the family will break up if the secret is told. The longer the sexual abuse, the more negatively it impacts a child’s emotional and physical growth and development. Child victims of long periods of sexual abuse often develop low self-esteem, a feeling of worthlessness and an abnormal view of sex.

Some children who have been sexually abused display sexualized behaviors which are not appropriate for their age and may try to pressure siblings or peers into sexual behavior. Some sexually abused children become child abusers themselves as adults, and others may turn to prostitution as teens. Often there are no obvious external signs of child sexual abuse. Some signs can only be detected on physical exam by a physician. Sexually abused children may also develop the following: Unusual interest in or avoidance of all things of a sexual nature
Sleep problems or nightmares
Depression or withdrawal from friends or family
Seductiveness
Statements that their bodies are dirty or damaged, or fear that there is something wrong with them in the genital area
Refusal to go to school
Poor focus and concentration at school
Delinquency/conduct problems
Secretiveness
Aspects of sexual molestation in drawings, games, fantasies
Unusual aggressiveness, or
Self harm and/or suicidal behavior
Child sexual abusers often threaten to harm children if they tell anyone about it, so it is difficult for an abused child to speak freely about it. If a child tells a teacher, peer, parent orcaregiver that he or she has been abused, these individuals should try to remain calm and reassure the child that what happened was not his or her fault. Parents should seek a medical examination and psychiatric consultation. Parents can prevent or lessen the chance of sexual abuse by:

Parents should seek a medical examination and psychiatric consultation. Parents can prevent or lessen the chance of sexual abuse by: Teaching children that if someone tries to touch your body and do things that make you feel funny, say NO to that person and tell me right away
Teaching children that respect does not mean blind obedience to adults and to authority. For example, don't tell children to 'always do everything the teacher or baby-sitter tells you to do'
Sexually abused children and their families need immediate professional evaluation and treatment. Child and adolescent psychiatrists can help abused children regain a sense of self-esteem, cope with feelings of guilt about the abuse, and begin the process of overcoming the trauma. Cognitive-behavioral therapies for children and parents can help them to deal with the consequences of sexual abuse. Such treatment can help reduce the immediate emotional aftermath of abuse on children and families, and reduce the severity of future problems.

Content: As the number of issues brought before Congress grows, lawmakers increasingly rely on the committee system to sift through the facts and determine how issues should be resolved. Congress is made up of both standing committees and select committees. Generally, standing committees have the power to generate legislation in their particular areas of jurisdiction, such as tax writing or appropriations. Select committees, such as the Senate Special Committee on Aging, are primarily advisory in nature. Most committees have delegated specific issues under their jurisdiction to subcommittees, whose job is to analyze each issue and eventually make a recommendation to their parent committee (or full committee, as it is sometimes called). Here again, it is vitally important that constituent contacts be made with the subcommittees as early in the process as possible. In their earliest stages of review, subcommittees welcome input from interested organizations and individuals. At this point, letters and personal visits with members of the subcommittee and their staff can have a tremendous effect on the panel’s recommendations. In many instances, a subcommittee will hold public hearings, either in Washington, DC or elsewhere, where constituents may ask to present their positions. If your senator or representative is not on the relevant subcommittee, does that mean you have no influence over the outcome?

Binghamton University Counseling Center
Content: Crisis intervention offers the immediate help that an individual in crisis needs in order to reestablish equilibrium. SECONDARY TRAUMA
People at risk for secondary traumatization are those other than the actual victims who are affected by the traumatic event. This may include friends, family and acquaintances of the victim, or people who have simply heard about the trauma or crisis. People who help trauma and crisis victims are sometimes at risk for secondary trauma as well. This may be because of consistent exposure to human suffering and possibly feeling responsible for the safety of the victim. SYMPTOMS AND REACTIONS
People whose normal lives are disturbed by a traumatic event find that their sense of security and safety is shattered. They also find that their responses to life and other people are either greatly exaggerated or no longer exist. The following are some of the symptoms one may encounter: EMOTIONAL REACTIONS
Intense emotion and reactivity: People may feel intense anxiety, pain, fear, shame, grief, horror, anger and shock.

Content: He will benefit from increasing the level of activity and incorporating resistance training into his exercise routine. The patient began cross training with non–weight-bearing activities of swimming and biking three times per week. He was encouraged to wear good athletic shoes and may benefit from bracing, orthotics, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication, or viscosupplementation. A twice-weekly, resistance training program was initiated focusing initially on lower extremity strength using light weights on a multipurpose machine. CASE 2
An 85-year-old woman who lives alone has a previous history of a minor stroke and has hypertension controlled with a beta blocker. She does not have known osteoporosis or a history of fracture and is currently sedentary. On examination, this patient had some difficulty with eyes-closed balance and was unable to stand from a chair without using both armrests, indicating fairly significant leg weakness. She began her exercise program by focusing on balance and strength with a simple home routine based on chair exercises, 12 oz soup cans, and balancing on one leg while holding the kitchen counter. Because she is asymptomatic for coronary artery disease, she can begin a low-intensity aerobic program without further testing. Because of the cold weather, the patient chose to begin walking the ground floor of her large apartment building, adding time and distance as she gains endurance.

Although the positive benefits of aerobic exercise are widely accepted, the importance of resistance training in the older population has also become increasingly apparent. Muscle strength declines by 15 percent per decade after age 50 and 30 percent per decade after age 70. 1 This is principally the result of sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass) and occurs to a greater degree in older women than men. Results from the Framingham disability study 13 demonstrate that 45 percent of women older than 65 years and 65 percent older than 75 years cannot lift 10 lb. Resistance training can result in 25 to 100 percent, or more, strength gains in older adults through muscle hypertrophy and, presumably, increased motor unit recruitment.

Although the positive benefits of aerobic exercise are widely accepted, the importance of resistance training in the older population has also become increasingly apparent. Muscle strength declines by 15 percent per decade after age 50 and 30 percent per decade after age 70. 1 This is principally the result of sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass) and occurs to a greater degree in older women than men.

Resistance training can result in 25 to 100 percent, or more, strength gains in older adults through muscle hypertrophy and, presumably, increased motor unit recruitment. 1, 14
Strength is intrinsic to daily function, especially in the very elderly. Most of the variance in walking speed in the elderly is related to leg strength, and increased strength has been shown to improve walking endurance and stair-climbing power. Strength training also improves nitrogen balance and can, combined with adequate nutrition, prevent muscle wasting in institutionalized elderly persons. 14, 15
The rise in heart rate and blood pressure with resistance work is largely proportional to the percent of maximal voluntary contraction (MVC). Consequently, minimal lifting (e.g., routine housework) can produce a dramatic rise in the rate-pressure product in weak, elderly patients.

Escherichia coli is the most common cause of uncomplicated UTI and accounts for approximately 75 to 95 percent of all infections. 2 - 5 A longitudinal study 6 of 235 women with 1,018 UTIs found that E. coli was the only causative agent in 69.3 percent of cases and was a contributing agent in an additional 2.4 percent of cases. Staphylococcus saprophyticus is a distant second, accounting for only 5 to 20 percent of infections.

Other Enterobacteriaceae, such as Klebsiella and Proteus, occasionally cause UTI. 2, 3, 5 Although S. saprophyticus is less common than E. coli, it is more aggressive. Approximately one half of patients infected with S. saprophyticus present with upper urinary tract involvement, and these patients are more likely to have recurrent infection. 3

Content: She may recommend over-the-counter or prescription arch supports to provide relief. If those treatments don't work, you may need surgery. Newer procedures have cut recovery time from three months to six weeks. One uses screws to align and stabilize the bone, and another, called a "tightrope bunionectomy," uses a surgical suture threaded between tiny holes drilled in two adjacent bones to hold the bones in place. 2. Morton's Neuroma
If you feel as if you have a pebble in your shoe or that your sock is bunched up under your toes each time you take a step, you may have a Morton's neuroma, a pinched nerve in the foot named for Philadelphia surgeon T.G. Morton, who wrote about it in 1876. Symptoms
Tingling, burning or numbness on the ball of your foot between the third and fourth toe. Discomfort or pain that starts out only occasionally, but eventually persists for days or weeks at a time. Causes
The nerve between the third and fourth toe becomes irritated and then painful, but the exact cause of the irritation is unknown. Common offenders seem to be tight shoes and high heels that compress and irritate the nerve.

The nerve between the third and fourth toe becomes irritated and then painful, but the exact cause of the irritation is unknown. Common offenders seem to be tight shoes and high heels that compress and irritate the nerve. Certain foot problems such as bunions, flat feet, hammer toes or high arches may also play a role. What you can do
Wear wider shoes with lower heels and a soft sole, which allow the bones to spread out, relieving pressure on the nerve. Use an ice pack on the affected area for 20 minutes several times a day to reduce swelling. Stay away from activities that put repetitive pressure on the neuroma, such as tennis or jogging, until the condition improves. Now is a good time to try yoga or Pilates instead.

Forced Out, Older Workers Are Fighting Back
Here's how some are coping with what they see as age bias at this stage in their career

Click infographic to view larger image. En español | The signs at first are disguised, then painfully apparent, they say. Solid performance reviews suddenly turn negative. Invitations to weekly and monthly meetings are no longer forthcoming. New demands and quotas seem harsh and unreasonable. In what some see as age bias, older workers are being forced out of their jobs. Read the five profiles on these pages to see how some workers are coping at this stage of their careers. What's the law? Age discrimination claims have been on the rise since 1997, when 15,785 reports were filed, according to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.

Abortion ultrasound law violates First Amendment, 4th Circuit says

Image from Shutterstock. A federal appeals court has ruled that North Carolina’s abortion ultrasound law violates the First Amendment. The law requires physicians to perform an ultrasound, display the sonogram, and describe the fetus to women seeking abortions, even if the woman averts her eyes or refuses to listen. The measure does allow an exception in cases of emergency. In a ruling (PDF) on Monday, the Richmond, Virginia-based 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the law is “quintessential compelled speech” that is by its very nature content-based. “The clear import of displaying the sonogram in this context—while the woman who has requested an abortion is partially disrobed on an examination table—is to use the visual imagery of the fetus to dissuade the patient from continuing with the planned procedure,” the appeals court said. The state had argued the law does not require doctors to follow a particular script and they are free to insert their own opinions about abortion. The appeals court said, however, that supplemental speech by the physician does not cure the coercion. The state also argued that the law is a reasonable regulation of the medical profession, but the appeals court said the ultrasound regulations “look nothing like traditional implied consent.” Hat tip to @MikeScarcella.

Content: The Union Jack also appears in the canton of the flags of several nations and territories that were former British colonies. The origins of the flag date back to 1603, when James VI of Scotland inherited the English and Irish thrones, thereby uniting the crowns of England, Scotland and Ireland in a personal union. On 12 April 1606, a new flag to represent this regal union between England and Scotland was specified in a royal decree, according to which the flag of England, and the flag of Scotland, would be joined together, forming the flag of Great Britain and first union flag. The current design dates from a Royal Proclamation following the Union of Great Britain and Ireland in 1801. The flag combines aspects of three older national flags: the red cross of St George for England and Wales, the white saltire of St Andrew for Scotland, and the red saltire of Saint Patrick's Flag to represent Ireland. see more »

Page Summary: In the United States, black children are aborted at more than three times the rate of white children; Hispanic children are aborted at one and a half times the rate. Whatever the intentions of Planned Parenthood, abortion is eliminating an incommensurate number of minority children. In America today, the average black woman is almost five times more likely to have an abortion than the average white woman. 1 Part of this disparity owes to the fact that, statistically, black women get pregnant more frequently than white women, 2 but even if we control for pregnancy, black babies are still more than three-and-a-half times more likely to be aborted than their white counterparts. 3 No matter what your opinion of abortion, the fact that it disproportionality eliminates members of the minority community is a significant sociological problem. Here’s what it looks like by the numbers. According to the latest census estimates, just over 13% of the U.S. population is black, 4 and yet somewhere between 28-38% of all U.S. abortions are performed on black babies.

According to the latest census estimates, just over 13% of the U.S. population is black, 4 and yet somewhere between 28-38% of all U.S. abortions are performed on black babies. The Guttmacher Institute puts that number at 28%, based on voluntary 2014 survey data from 8,380 respondents. 5 The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) places the number at 38%, based on actual counts of every 2016 abortion performed in the 30 states/districts that collect and report abortion data by race. 6 By comparison, non-Hispanic white women make up 60% of the population but account for only 35-39% of all abortions. 7
Among black women, the current abortion ratio is 401. 8 That means there are 401 abortions for every 1,000 live births.
