Colorado universities can hold regional or national accreditation. Regional accreditation is much more popular and prestigious than national accreditation. Students who attend regionally accredited colleges find it easier to transfer credit to another institution, qualify for federal financial aid, get into graduate school, and obtain professional certifications. When choosing an online school in Colorado, look for those accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, the regional accrediting agency that evaluates postsecondary institutions in the state. Prospective students should also look for education programs accredited by the Council for the Accreditation of Educator Preparation, a specialized agency that sets standards for educator preparation accreditation.

The Process of Reflection Self-Reflective Journal Video Recording Student Observation Peer Observation Questions to Ask Yourself Lesson Objectives Materials Students Classroom Management Teacher Analyze and Implement Effective Techniques Content: Teaching Strategies: The Value of Self-Reflection - TeachHUB Teaching Strategies: The Value of Self-Reflection Janelle Cox M.S. in Education October 24, 2014 Teaching Strategies Home Teacher Resources Teaching Strategies Have you ever taken a moment to step back and think, “Why did I just do that?” Self-reflection is a simple way to dig deeper into your feelings and find out why you were doing something or feeling a certain way. With a profession as challenging as teaching, self-reflection offers teachers an opportunity to think about what works and what doesn’t in their classroom. We teachers can use reflective teaching as a way to analyze and evaluate our own practices so we can focus on what works. Why is Self-Reflection So Important? Effective teachers are first to admit that no matter how good a lesson is, our teaching strategies can always be improved—oftentimes it’s why we seek out our colleagues’ opinions. However, we run the risk of our audience making snap judgments about our instruction without truly having the context to support it. Self-reflection is important because it’s a process that makes you collect, record, and analyze everything that happened in the lesson so you can make improvements in your teaching strategies where necessary.

The Process of Reflection Connecting self-reflection to effective teaching is a process. The first step is to figure out what you want to reflect upon—are you looking at a particular feature of your teaching or is this reflection in response to a specific problem in your classroom? Whatever the case may be, you should start by collecting information. Here are a few ways that you can do this: Self-Reflective Journal A journal is an easy way to reflect upon what just happened during your instruction.

After each lesson, simply jot down a few notes describing your reactions and feelings, and then follow up with any observations you have about your students. If it helps, you can break up your journal into concrete sections, such lesson objectives, materials, classroom management, students, teacher, etc. In this way, you can be consistent with how you measure your assessments time after time. You can find specific questions to ask yourself below. Video Recording A video recording of your teaching is valuable because it provides an unaltered and unbiased vantage point for how effective your lesson may be from both a teacher and student perspective.

Additionally, a video may act as an additional set of eyes to catch errant behavior that you hadn’t spotted at the time. Many colleges actually use this method to teach up-and-coming teachers the value of self-reflection. Student Observation Students are very observant and love to give feedback. You can hand out a simple survey or questionnaire after your lesson to get students’ perspectives about how the lesson went. Think critically about what questions you’d like to ask, and encourage your children to express their thoughts thoroughly.

Howard Gardner (1943-) – Multiple Intelligences Theory Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences has redefined educators’ views of how students learn and should be assessed. Historically, intelligence has been measured through the ability to problem solve and to demonstrate cognitive ability through various controlled verbal and performance-type tasks. Gardner’s theory broadens the field of how individuals display their intelligence by including linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodily-kinesthetic, special, interpersonal, and intrapersonal intelligences. Through his influence there has been a greater emphasis placed on performance testing, and educators have become more conscious of the need for diversification of instructional strategies to match the different learning styles and strengths of students. #Education, #PioneersofEducation

Narwhals are toothed whales, and the horn of the male can grow to be as long as eight-and-a-half feet long. The unusual feature is the left canine tooth of the males, which breaks through the upper lip of the male. It is sometimes used in contests between males to win mates, but it does not primarily serve a defensive purpose. Although biologists knew this much about the horn of narwhals, theories of how the animals used the body part differed greatly. Some biologists believed the horns are used for ice picks, while others said the horns picked up noises deep under water. Researchers discovered the horn is, in fact, used as a sensory organ. Unlike most mammal teeth, the horn of a narwhal is not protected by enamel. Sea water enters the horn through cementum channels, which are also present in human teeth. The liquid then travels through a network of tubules to the center of the tooth, heading base of the tusk.

Researchers discovered the horn is, in fact, used as a sensory organ. Unlike most mammal teeth, the horn of a narwhal is not protected by enamel. Sea water enters the horn through cementum channels, which are also present in human teeth. The liquid then travels through a network of tubules to the center of the tooth, heading base of the tusk. There, the water excites nerve endings in the pulp of the tooth, sending signals to the brain of the animal. This makes the horn sensitive to temperatures and the animal can "taste" the concentrations of different chemicals in the water. Biologists believe the males may use the horn to find food, as well as females who may be ready to mate. "The combined evidence suggests multiple tusk functions may have driven the tooth organ system's evolutionary development and persistence," researchers wrote in the study. Martin Nweeia from the Harvard School of Dental Medicine led the study.

Crew Kohl’s Starbucks Content: After all, they offer stock that’s affordable for everyone, no matter their financial situation. However, it seems it might be hard to make a profit when people are only ever spending $1 per item. Family Dollar is struggling so much that they’re being forced to close up to 390 stores this year to try and stop themselves from hemorrhaging money. For the 200 shops that remain open, they’ll be rebranded with another name. Shopko In the wake of financial troubles, Shopko did everything they could to stay afloat. Unfortunately, there was no silver lining for this Wisconsin-based retailer come 2019 as they were forced to shut down for good. They’d already resigned themselves to closing around 70% of their stores by May, but even that wasn’t enough to help them out. After filing for bankruptcy in January, they tried and failed to find themselves a buyer. That means by the end of summer, Shopko will be no more. Gap Not every retailer is closing its doors forever this year, but some are seeing a severe drop in their available stores.

Title: Does Society Shape Who We Are? | Teen Ink Headings: Does Society Shape Who We Are? Does Society Shape Who We Are? Content: When we are toddlers, most girls end up in dance class while the little boys play T-ball or soccer. Again, because these activities and hobbies are displayed as “proper” for each gender on social media, movies and advertisements, we hypnotically follow which ever way society directs us in. Ever since I was three years old, I took dance class and to this day, all I do is ballet. Despite my never ending passion and desire for the art of dance, I oftentimes wonder what sport I would be doing today if I hadn’t been initially put in ballet class at the age of three. I always wished I had time for soccer or basketball however once I was introduced to dance I couldn’t step away from it. Now a days, my life is surrounded by social media and technology, so are most people of this generation. There is not one day when I don’t have my phone by my side and when that does happen, which is very rare, I feel very anxious as if a part of me were missing. Social media is a black hole that I unfortunately got sucked into. Instagram, snapchat and galore, all of these apps are neatly organized on the homescreen on my phone. How instagram and society shaping my life is unequivocally related.

How instagram and society shaping my life is unequivocally related. I may spend ten minutes thinking of what to write as a caption for a picture I am about to post, whether it is a selfie, or sushi, I tend to care about how I word things in fear of being judged. Society has created a funny way of handling social media. I almost feel as if there are rules for how to own an account that is accepted by society. There is definitely pressure to say the right thing, or post certain pictures for certain occasions. What I worry about is the fact that if one doesn’t obey these “rules”, they will be judged and viewed negatively.

What I worry about is the fact that if one doesn’t obey these “rules”, they will be judged and viewed negatively. Therefore, they are forced to change themselves in order to fit in with the way society thinks and acts. In addition to hobbies and social media, what we look like on the outside is one of the most common ways people are judged. My younger brother, ten years old, has a pink T-shirt and he refuses to wear it because “it is pink” and pink is a girly color. He is afraid of being teased at school for wearing a color that only girls wear. Social media promotes this idea which makes us constantly ask, “What will people think if…” Furthermore, while there was a big sale going on at Nordstroms, my mom was shopping online for winter boots for me and I noticed a pattern.

Title: Does Society Shape Who We Are? | Teen Ink Headings: Does Society Shape Who We Are? Does Society Shape Who We Are? Content: Unless we completely isolate ourselves and have no contact with the rest of the world, it is then that we live each day as the original us. We would live with our own opinions and our own perspectives. However, that is not how life works and each day our opinions and views on certain topics are constantly being changed because we let society shape it for us. Social construct is crucial to understand, for it is what makes each of us who we are today. For example, if you see a male and female, who are not related to each, hug or hold hands, you might immediately conclude that they are dating when in reality they are actually best friends. But just because they do what society expects couples to do, they are immediately judged. This is how society changes us to believe that certain actions draw certain conclusions. Overall, I have come to understand that the person I am today is different that who I would be if society didn’t influence my opinions and views on ideas and concepts. Society shapes us through our gender, it dictates what jobs would be suitable for us, what we should wear, how we should look, who we are to socialise with and what is acceptable or not. Society shapes us into how they want their citizens to be and how they want gender roles to be played out.

Similar Articles An Essay on Magic The Pen is Mightier Scientific and Technological Advancements in the 1970s and Their Impact on American Culture The Odyssey Essay Massive Beasts Like Us Leadership: A True American Quality Content: Although the initial Crusade was successful, later Crusades not only seemed to lose sight of their original purpose but also appeared to be an excuse for violence and thievery that damaged the reputation of the Catholic Church worldwide. The Crusades afterwards were only successful to the Third Crusade because the original crusades had a clear, organized, religious-based purpose, and later crusades outright failed due to ineptitude and greed. In 1095 Pope Urban II gave a sermon to the Council of Clermont in France urging nobles and peasants alike to join him on a holy war against the Muslims. Their mission: to reclaim the sacred land of Jerusalem from the “Saracens”. He tempted people to come together by promising them salvation from God and fame when the Crusaders (the word crusade derives from the French word “crois” which means “cross”) returned. Also, Pope Urban II assured his Crusaders gain wealth by pillage. Because of these assurances, thousands of people, both rich and poor, followed the Pope. “God wills it!” cried out the crusaders during the First Crusade (1095-1099).

Yet the Crusaders defended their acts by saying that the massacre was not sinful because the people weren’t Christians. In 1144, the Turks were able to capture Edessa, an important English outpost north of Antioch, Tripoli, Acre, and Jerusalem. Angered by the strike, Bernard of Clairvaux assembled another group of crusaders, thereby organizing the Second Crusade. This struggle was unsuccessful; their enemies were more prepared and Bernard of Clairvaux and his crusaders were incapable of reclaiming Edessa.

Most of the crusades afterwards lost view of their original principle; while many crusaders were riled up by religious faith and truly wanted to “save” their holy land, most people just wanted a reason to raid and loot cities. Also, they had no leader because the Peace of Ramla forbade it. People went as far as to send children into battle. This historic crusade is known as the Children’s Crusade, where as many as 20,000 European children (hardly any over the age of twelve) came together to march to Jerusalem under the command of a fourteen year old named Stephan. Most of the children died of starvation and exhaustion, while others were killed in shipwrecks. Those who made it to Jerusalem were sold into slavery. Unsurprisingly, this mission failed. In short, the First Crusade proved to be (while incredibly vicious) a success for the Christians.

Title: Political, Social, and Economic Change after the American Revolution | Teen Ink Headings: Political, Social, and Economic Change after the American Revolution Political, Social, and Economic Change after the American Revolution Content: Both of the ideas he supports in his paper indicate that he was a great supporter of the ratification of the constitution. Also, this spurred the first American party system, being the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists, along with the concepts of lose and strict constructionism. These ideas are still fought over today where republicans take the side of strict constructionists, believing that the Constitution should be followed word-for-word, and democrats take the side of loose constructionists, believing that there must be room for interpretation. Overall, the American Revolution incited these great political revelations, and gave the founders concepts included in the Constitution that they would not have become aware of otherwise. Economically, Americans did not experience great amounts of change. The Philadelphia society for the promotion of agriculture, handed out a medal which said, “Venerate the Plough” [Document F]. This is a large example of how the rich were still “rewarding” the common-people who weren't necessarily better off after the revolution. This medal acted as a form of encouragement in the sense that it promoted the idea that the United States was filled with abundance, fertility, and freedom. Also, it supports Jeffersonian ideal of agrarian republicanism based on virtuous yeoman farmers where the common-people and the planters would have priority, and would experience equality, and political opportunity. Similarly to this, Shay's rebellion farmers, lead by the ex-military officer who “... [stopped] the courts of justice in several counties...crying out for a paper currency, [or] for an equal distribution of power” [Document G].

Title: Shakespeare's Impact: Lasting Forever | Teen Ink Headings: Shakespeare's Impact: Lasting Forever Shakespeare's Impact: Lasting Forever Content: He left his properties or bequeathed them to his daughter Susanna. He left 300 Euros to his other daughter Judith and to his wife he left her “his second best bed”. Shakespeare allegedly died on his birthday, April 23, 1616, [J.M. Pressley]. His work companions, John Heminges and Henry Condell, from the “Lord Chamberlain’s Men”, printed the first “Folio” edition of his collected plays which weren’t yet published, [J.M.] Pressley]. William Shakespeare died on April 23, 1616 and was buried at the church he was baptized in. After his death though his works and plays became timeless. They are still being performed and played all over the World and will continue to do so. William Shakespeare’s legacy is a body of work that will never again be equaled in the Western civilization, [J.M. Pressley]. Shakespeare will live on forever as long as actors or school students are trying to better understand him and his way with making up words and his wild, vivid, imagination. This wild and vivid imagination from one man created an impact that started out as language that today we wouldn’t fully understand but it developed into our English language.

Vonnegut creates a world in which all living people are equal in all ways. He focuses on creating equality by altering beauty, strength, and intelligence as opposed to dealing with race, religion, and sex, the true issues of equality in society. He writes this story to teach the lesson that all people are not equal, but rather, they all have strengths and weaknesses making each uniquely individual. Vonnegut forces equality on America in the areas of beauty, strength, and intelligence. He creates a world in which beautiful people wear masks to cover their faces and strong individuals carry weights to make them equal to the weaker population. For the intelligent men and women, headsets that blast random noises are worn to interfere with intellectual thoughts. These handicaps are to be worn at all times and are enforced by law to equalize all human beings. Vonnegut makes Harrison very handsome, strong, and intelligent. He has to wear an abnormally large headset, huge weights, large glasses, and a red rubber nose just to offset his features.

Particularly because the United States was established on the basis of the emphasis on freedom, this amendment holds important value to both our government and nation. First and foremost, the First Amendment to Constitution strengthens the moral of our governments, providing a free environment for all kinds of people and cultures. The Pilgrims left England to seek religious freedom, and they discovered a haven in North America; however, other minorities, such as the Jews, were not so lucky. For instance, the Holocaust of World War II alone nearly eliminated the whole population of European Jews. A few centuries ago, certain people would be prosecuted for their religion;

A good amount of the girls that see it, then look for the outfit in the store because they think it’s cute. Situations Recently there was an incident about some pictures the girls from the cast of Glee took for the magazine called GQ. This was a controversial problem about the look it brings on the characters in the show; the show Glee takes place in a high school setting and young girls like to watch that show. So when the main characters took pictures for that magazine, and they wear appealing to the men that read those magazines.

Content: They also might believe that joining a gang will not involve them in violence and criminal activities. Gang activities appear exciting to children, especially teens. They like to take risks and gangs provide many opportunities to take risks and find excitement. Youths would think it’s fun because they enjoy living on the edge and participating in reckless activities. But often what at first appears to be fun has serious consequences. Young people join gangs for the feeling of having power and being powerful. Even though in actuality, those having power is false. They would feel like they have power for many different reasons. One reason is that they think they would appear very intimidating to some people, such as bullies or other children they don’t get along with or have had problems with them in the past. In their minds, if they join the gang they would appear tough and more acceptable to scare bullies away.

Lincoln is the most remember president of the United States of America. As the 16th president, he is also known as the most influential to have ever been elected into the United States office. He lived a short life of 56 years, after being born on February 12, 1809, he was then elected into office, becoming the first Republican president at the age of 51 on March 4, 1861, and winning with over 40% of the popular vote. He upheld the office position until he was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth on April 15, 1865, at the Petersen House in Washington, D.C. Abraham Lincoln was the greatest and most significant president because during his presidency he carried America through their Civil War, and while doing so he preserved the Union, modernized the economy, gave strength to the federal government, and issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which was the beginning to freeing the slaves. The Civil War was one of America’s lowest points in history, but winning this war was a major key in Lincoln’s success as president. Although by deciding to fight this war Lincoln separated the nation, he also did everything in his power to win and bring the everybody in nation back together as one. When nobody else had the faith needed to win the war, Lincoln was there to tell everyone it was possible. By doing this he showed a true sign of leadership and integrity.

Not only did Lincoln show his love for America by winning the Civil War, he showed it by presenting his foreign policy. His foreign policy was so successful that it convinced the other nations that the North’s cause for fighting was solely based off the idea of emancipation, and although emancipation seemed to be known as “the impossible” of the time, they worked together to win the war against the South, and take back the freedom for African Americans. This shows what was best for the nation because Lincoln knew that if they won this war, it wouldn’t only effect America it would also effect people from around the world, and give them hope for the better. Lincoln also had a huge part in maintaining the name “America, land of the free and home of the brave.” One way he contributed to this was passing the Emancipation Proclamation, and being a huge supporter in the 13th Amendment.

Title: Why Abraham Lincoln Is the Best President | Teen Ink Headings: Why Abraham Lincoln Is the Best President Why Abraham Lincoln Is the Best President Content: For example, The Gettysburg Address, not everyone may know this speech by its name, but if someone were to state the words “four score and seven years ago…” most people would recognize it. In this speech Lincoln stated, in summary, that he was grateful for all the people that fought in the Battle of Gettysburg during the Civil War, and that him, along with the rest of America were in mourning of all the lives lost in this battle. Throughout this speech Lincoln reminded everyone what these soldiers were fighting for, freedom, national unity, and for everyone to be treated equally. These three topics were what Lincoln’s presidency was based off of; his main focus was freedom, and equality for everyone residing in the United States of America, not just white men. Abraham Lincoln also modernized the economy during the war by passing a bill that chartered the first transcontinental railroad. This railroad created the opportunity to advance trade throughout the United States, and the world. Along with trade brought more federal income, which also contributed to giving power to the federal government. He also was the first to issue a required income tax to pay for the war. Although it was only 3% tax on incomes greater than $800, this was the basis of the tax system that America still uses today.

In 1862, he signed The Legal Tender Act, and by doing so he issued an authorized currency, also to help pay for the war, which the people called “greenbacks.” This system is still used in the United States today, although it has been modernized the concept stays the same for trade throughout the U.S, income tax, and legal currencies. Lincoln was and still is a memorable role model that not only kids, and adults look up to, but also a role model that other presidents try to emulate. Known as honest Abe, Lincoln is a trust worthy, and significant president that still lives on in everyone’s memories, and daily lives.

Title: The Disposition Toward Critical Thinking Headings: The Disposition Toward Critical Thinking The Disposition Toward Critical Thinking Content: Critical thinking came before schooling was ever invented, it lies at the very roots of civilization. It is a corner stone in the journey human kind is taking from beastly savagery to global sensitivity. Consider what life would be like without the things on this list and we think you will understand. The approaches to life and living which characterize critical thinking include: inquisitiveness with regard to a wide range of issues, concern to become and remain well-informed, alertness to opportunities to use critical thinking, trust in the processes of reasoned inquiry, self-confidence in one*s own abilities to reason, open-mindedness regarding divergent world views, flexibility in considering alternatives and opinions understanding of the opinions of other people, fair-mindedness in appraising reasoning, honesty in facing one*s own biases, prejudices, stereotypes, or egocentric tendencies, prudence in suspending, making or altering judgments, willingness to reconsider and revise views where honest reflection suggests that change is warranted. What would someone be like who lacked those dispositions? It might be someone who does not care about much of anything, is not interested in the facts, prefers not to think, mistrusts reasoning as a way of finding things out or solving problems, holds his or her own reasoning abilities in low esteem, is close-minded, inflexible, insensitive, can*t understand what others think, is unfair when it comes to judging the quality of arguments, denies his or her own biases, jumps to conclusions or delays too long in making judgments, and never is willing to reconsider an opinion. Not someone prudent people would want to elect to public office or to ask to manage their investments! The experts went beyond approaches to life and living in general to emphasize that good critical thinkers can also be described in terms of how they approach specific issues, questions, or problems. The experts said you would find these sorts of characteristics:

All Night Long (All Night) (1983) 1. Easy (1977) Content: Deep River Woman (1986) Richie was at his most heartfelt and soulful on yet another stand-out from the four million-selling Dancing On The Ceiling. A collaboration with country group Alabama, Deep River Woman saw the artist reconnect with his southern United States origins (he was raised in Tuskegee, Alabama) and was released as a double a-side with Ballerina Girl. The song foreshadowed his 2012 album Tuskegee, in which he returned to his country roots, dueting with such giants of the genre as Shania Twain and Willie Nelson. 17. Stuck On You (1984) An early foray into country music, Stuck On You pairs the singer's husky warble with twanging guitars and minimalist arrangements. Thankfully it is more low-key than the sleeve shot of Richie in a blinding checkered shirt and stetson hat straight out of Roy Rogers. Though it challenged perceptions of Richie as strictly a soul artist, the song was nonetheless favourably received by fans and reached number three in the United States and number 12 in the UK. 16. Truly (1982) His first solo single proper is a string-soaked weepy in the vein of Commodores hits such as Easy and Three Times A Lady. Truly spent a week at number one in the United States, confirming the singer had a future as a stand-alone artist.

The Bloomberg Commodity index, which tracks the prices of 22 different commodity prices such as gold, natural gas and oil, fell 0.3pc to 99.84 in early trading, the lowest point since August 2002. The recent bout of weakness in commodity prices came as the US Federal Reserve issued an upbeat view on the state of US economy. Bloomberg Commodity index reaches lowest level since August 2002 Minutes from the Federal Open Market Committee's December meeting said the US economy is expanding at a solid rate with strong job gains, a signal that the central bank remains on track with plans to raise interest rates. Commodities, like all asset classes, have benefited from America's loose monetary policy. The upbeat view from the US economy came after another sign of a slowdown in China, with official figures showing profits from the industrial sector fell 8pc in December from a year earlier. Last year, China’s annual economic growth slowed to 7.4pc—its slowest pace in nearly a quarter of a century —as the property crisis in the country holds back the economy, and there is rising debt and slower demand for its products at home and abroad. Most economists expect Beijing to set an annual-growth target for 2015 of 7pc.

By N Quentin Woolf 09 April 2014 • 8:29am The body of businessman Andy Bush was found at his villa in the Costa del Sol Credit: Photo: SWNS Men commit more violent crime than women, by a mile. Around 85-90% of convicted murderers are men, a majority of the reported domestic abusers and pretty much all of those committing sexual attacks. However – and this is the part that gets overlooked – almost twice as many men than women are the victims of violence. While as a society we rightly give lots of attention to protecting women against violence, from warnings about predatory cab drivers to reports on women’s refuges, from the understanding that it’s wrong to hit a woman to walking women home, very little seems to be being done to protect men, or to dissuade anyone from the idea that it’s also wrong to hit a man. Is male life cheaper? In discussions of domestic violence, it is often noted with alarm that women are killed at a rate of two per week, by usually male partners or ex-partners. But domestic violence is not exclusively male on female:

As to why Flora's reputation should be so eagerly tossed aside, one must consider the rancour that existed between the Queen and her mother, the Duchess. Victoria's early court was a febrile, factionalised place, and Flora was caught in the middle of it. An accomplished linguist and poet, she also possessed a sharp wit, with Baroness Lehzen at times the target. Her portraits show an attractive, slender girl, with large eyes, a wide forehead, long neck and dark hair, yet Melbourne called her the ugliest woman he had ever seen, and to Victoria, she was "that nasty woman". In addition, Queen and court ardently supported the Whig government, to the extent, wrote a contemporary observer, "that a Conservative cat was not permitted to mew in the precincts of the Palace". The Hastings family were Tories. Two weeks after first attending Flora, Clark went to see her to inform her that, because of her appearance, the Queen's ladies were convinced that she must be "privately married, or at least ought to be so". He exhorted her to confess. On Flora's emphatic denial, Clark told her that the only way to satisfy the ladies of her innocence was to submit to a medical examination, a suggestion that Flora's horrified mother called "this most revolting proposal".

The mean year for first marriages for women in 1991 was 25.5 and just 23.1 back in 1981, the year of the last major Royal wedding. Lady Diana Spencer, as she was then, had just turned 20 when she married Prince of Wales. Catherine Middleton, in contrast is 29 years old, suggesting that the forthcoming Royal Wedding is – despite its pomp – more reflective of British social trends than some admit. The average age of men has climbed from 25.4 in 1981, to 32.1 years in 2009. The figures also confirmed the long-running decline in the institution of marriage, with the number of marriages hitting a fresh all-time low, with fewer people being married in 2009 than in any year since figures started to be recorded in 1895. There were 231,490 marriages in 2009, more than 4,000 fewer than the year before and a lower number than the 228,204 marriages recorded in 1895. Just 1.92 per cent of unmarried women and 2.13 per cent of unmarried men wed during the year, compared with peak of 8 per cent of men and 6.3 per cent of women during World War II, when many rushed to marry before they were sent off to fight. Experts said the poor state of the economy was a leading factor in the deterioration of marriage rates. Jenny North, head of public policy at Relate, the counselling charity, said: “

The research shows that 40 per cent of NHS resources are spent dealing with ills caused by potentially preventable lifestyle factors such as unhealthy eating habits, obesity, alcohol and smoking. Diet is now the number one factor driving poor health, even ahead of smoking, the study by Public Health England (PHE) found – causing 10.8 per cent of illness in the UK compared with 10.7 per cent caused by smoking. The number of deaths from alcohol-related disease has soared. The figures for England, which track the impact of disease since 1990, show a 57 per cent rise in liver cancer deaths and a 42 per cent increase in deaths from cirrhosis. "Cutting down on junk food diets, couch potato lifestyles, cigarettes and booze could make Britain one of the healthiest places to live in the world" Simon Stevens, the head of the NHS Overall, researchers found that life expectancy rose by 6.4 years between 1990 and 2013, increasing from 75.9 to 81.3 years. But, over the same period, the burden of disability – the total amount of time spent living in ill-health – barely changed, as chronic diseases have taken grip. While death rates from diabetes fell by 56 per cent, the number of years lost to disability and illness linked to the condition rose by 75 per cent over the same period, the analysis shows.

Prof Kevin Fenton, the PHE director of Health and Wellbeing, said: “ As a nation we are eating far too many fats and far too much sugar.

Title: Premature babies more likely to suffer mental disorders as adults Headings: Premature babies more likely to suffer mental disorders as adults Premature babies more likely to suffer mental disorders as adults Content: The new research, reported in the Archives of General Psychiatry, is based on a study of almost 1.5 million Swedish birth and medical records from 1973 and 1985. Every child admitted to hospital with a first episode of a psychiatric disorder by 2002 was identified. Dr Chiara Nosarti, from the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College London, said: " We found a very strong link between premature birth and a range of psychiatric disorders. "Since we considered only the most severe cases that resulted in hospitalisation, it may be that in real terms this link is even stronger. "However, it is important to remember that even with the increased risk, these disorders still only affect 1 per cent to 6 per cent of the population." An estimated one in 13 children are born prematurely in the UK each year. As a group, they are more likely than other children to require extra school support and to suffer a range of physical problems." Dr Nosarti added: " We believe that the increased risk of mental disorders in those born very prematurely can be explained by subtle changes in brain development.

Title: Boris Yeltsin Headings: Boris Yeltsin Boris Yeltsin Content: Boris Yeltsin Boris Yeltsin Boris Yeltsin, the former President of Russia who died today aged 76, led Russians away from the bondage of Communism, but was never to see the promised land of a thriving market economy and a state ruled by law. 23 April 2007 • 12:01am He took control of a Russia in chaos and left it in a different kind of chaos when he suddenly resigned on the last day of 1999. During his time in office two very different Yeltsins etched themselves on the world’s consciousness. There was Yeltsin the fighter, who climbed on top of a tank in August 1991 to raise the standard of liberty against the Soviet putschists who wanted to restore Communism. And there was the later version, another broken-down Brezhnev, puffy-cheeked, stiff gaited, who disappeared from view when most needed, paralysed by heart disease, a fondness for the bottle and bouts of depressive indecision. Yeltsin thrived in opposition, but aged visibly in power. His finest hour was his campaign in 1991 to unseat the last Soviet president, Mikhail Gorbachev, in the course of which he killed off the Soviet superpower and ushered in the modern Russian state. Once in power, Yeltsin seemed less comfortable. As the challenger he enjoyed popularity: the more he upset the West, then in the grip of its love affair with Gorbachev, the more old women begged to kiss his feet.

In opposition, Yeltsin was caricatured in the West as an axe-wielding Russian peasant and rarely appeared in cartoons without a vodka bottle. Yet for a time it seemed that he had done more to make possible movement by Russia towards a modern economy than anybody else. Where Gorbachev dithered about economic reform, Yeltsin grasped the nettle, freeing state-controlled prices in 1992, and engaging in a massive privatisation of Russian industry the next year.

Crises punctuated Yeltsin’s career. In August 1991, when he was the elected President of the Russian Federation, then still part of the Soviet Union, hardliners from the KGB and the army incarcerated the then Soviet leader, Mikhail Gorbachev, in his Crimean holiday home, and declared a coup. It was typical of the bone-headed (and often drunk) coup leaders that they did not arrest Yeltsin at dawn. He drove into the heart of Moscow, and the flag of resistance was raised at the Russian parliament, based in the Moscow White House.

Title: Boris Yeltsin Headings: Boris Yeltsin Boris Yeltsin Content: Television cameras showed Yeltsin clambering on to a tank. “We appeal to the citizens of Russia to give a worthy answer to the putschists,” he roared. “ Dictatorship will not pass.” From that moment, the putsch was doomed — and the fate of Gorbachev and the Soviet superpower with it. Using his new prestige to humiliate Gorbachev, Yeltsin became undisputed leader of Russia. On August 23 he signed a decree which suspended the Communist Party. The next day Gorbachev, unable to deny the complicity of Communist leaders in the plot, resigned as general secretary of the Party, and called on the central committee to dissolve itself. By the end of the year the Soviet Union had collapsed and its 15 constituent republics found themselves as nation states. As befitted someone who served the Communist Party for most of his working life, Yeltsin set to work introducing change in 1992 in a rough, Bolshevik fashion. The aim was (as Lenin would have said) to “smash” the Communist system and ensure it never returned.

Privatisation was manipulated by old party bosses and the criminal mafia; it became a synonym for theft. But there was no turning back to Communism. It was not long before Yeltsin’s reforms spawned another opposition coalition, based this time inside the White House.

Title: Boris Yeltsin Headings: Boris Yeltsin Boris Yeltsin Content: Many of his old enemies from the White House turned up in the new parliament, while almost one quarter of the votes went to Vladimir Zhirinovsky’s ultra-nationalist Liberal Democratic Party. Western-style reformers were now out of fashion, though the West was kept sweet by the government’s continued policy of fighting inflation. Power was once again in the hands of the old Soviet nomenklatura. Yeltsin gathered around him associates from his days as Communist Party boss in the Ural city of Yekaterinburg. Membership of the inner circle depended principally on loyalty in the 1993 uprising. The Kremlin became a court, filled with intrigue where real power was wielded by the most unlikely people. Alexander Korzhakov, who rose from being bodyguard to become chief of presidential security, was seen as the second most influential man in the land. A tougher stance was adopted in foreign affairs, with Russia making every effort to appear a superpower, even if it was not. This was particularly clear in dealings with the former Soviet republics, in which the Kremlin arrogated itself the right to use all means, including force, to defend Russian interests. The apogee of General Korzhakov and like-minded men suspicious of the West came in December 1994, when the might of the Russian armed forces was turned against the rebellious republic of Chechnya, a small territory on Russia’s southern border which declared itself independent in 1991.

The bungled planning, inept execution and sheer brutality of this campaign shocked the world. Yeltsin, who had been told it would be over in days, absented himself to hospital for a nose operation at the start of the campaign in the hope of avoiding the fuss. It dragged on for 21 months, causing some 40,000 casualties, mostly among civilians. Yeltsin himself suffered three heart attacks during the months of war with Chechnya, but he never lost the support of the West. He knew that the deaths of thousands of Chechens counted for little in international relations, provided Russia steered a generally pro-Western economic course and ensured that its nuclear arsenal was in reliable hands.

Title: Boris Yeltsin Headings: Boris Yeltsin Boris Yeltsin Content: Yeltsin had in the meantime been obliged to make an urgent decision about what to do when his presidential mandate ran out in July 1996. His belief in his own popular appeal, coupled with a desire to humiliate the Communist opposition, swayed him. The Korzhakov clan was sidelined, and Yeltsin’s daughter, Tatyana, stepped in to the vacuum, ensuring that modern-minded advisers took over the campaign. Yeltsin himself, sustained by a $10 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund, scattered bribes like confetti, and thanks to ruthless manipulation of the media, was re-elected with a handsome majority on the second round of voting in July 1996. But the effort of campaigning, which had the old man jigging on the stage at a rock concert, had caused a heart attack — his third — in June, after the first round of voting. He was out of action for most of the rest of the year. For the first time, a Russian ruler had staked his position on the will of the people. Yet Russia seemed stuck and few people really believed that they could change anything. When in March 1998 Yeltsin dismissed his Prime Minister, Victor Chernomyrdin, and the entire government, it caused a great stir. But such moves became habitual.

Title: The Tory party has lost sight of its true values Headings: The Tory party has lost sight of its true values The Tory party has lost sight of its true values Content: Under Disraeli and Shaftesbury, it introduced social reforms before Labour even existed. But “detoxification” saw us ignore issues where we were clearly in tune with the voters, such as immigration and Europe. Even just talking about them was seen as reinforcing the supposed “nasty party” image and alienating voters. In fact, this approach weakened our appeal among large sections of the electorate. Even against a discredited Gordon Brown, in the midst of an economic crisis, modernisation failed to produce the election victory it was meant to secure. The Tories not only failed to win over new voters but failed to win back more than three million who supported us in 1992. This was due to a lack of clarity about our values, and a lack of understanding of the electorate’s aspirations. What can we do about it? First, the party needs to have the courage to stand up for its traditional values. If we stop, voters – at best – forget what we stand for.

We should be unashamed about promoting our ideals and principles. Most voters want controlled immigration. Most oppose further European integration. Most share our support for freedom under the law and free markets, and recognise the importance of opportunity and social mobility. These are all inherently Conservative values. So, in the Budget, we should have had the courage to say that cutting tax for the low-paid and cutting the top rate were not alternatives, but two sides of the same coin. We should have stated plainly that axing the 50p rate will increase revenue, create jobs and drive growth. Second, we need to re-establish the Conservatives as the party of aspiration: the kind that in the Eighties led to more home and share ownership, more new businesses, and the re-emergence of pride in our country.

Frank Field, a former welfare minister, suggested that increasing numbers of MPs will reject their own parties’ policies on immigration and run for election making their own independent pledges of much tougher action. Mr Field, an MP since 1979 and one of the most widely-respected members of the Commons, said neither Ed Miliband, his own leader, nor David Cameron, has done enough to answer public anger about mass immigration. Speaking to the Daily Telegraph, he also praised the UK Independence Party for “breaking the power of political correctness” over the issue of immigration. Rejecting Labour’s liberal approach to immigration under the last government, Mr Field has been a longstanding campaigner for much more restrictive entry rules. Mr Field also has close ties with some Conservatives, running an immigration campaign with Sir Nicholas Soames, a senior Conservative MP.

Criticising the leaderships of both parties for ignoring voters’ concerns over immigration, Mr Field suggested that both the main parties could now effectively be destroyed by splits over how to respond. He likened the situation to the one that faced the Tories in the mid 19th Century when Sir Robert Peel scrapped the Corn Laws protecting British farmers from imported grain. The subsequent backlash split the Tories into two factions, one of which later merged with the Whigs to form the Liberals. “Immigration has the power that the Corn Laws did, to break up parties,” Mr Field said.

Title: Frank Field: Labour and Tories will be 'broken up' by immigration Headings: Frank Field: Labour and Tories will be 'broken up' by immigration Frank Field: Labour and Tories will be 'broken up' by immigration Content: Next year’s general election will see “the beginning of the break up” as many MPs effectively offer voters their own personal manifesto on immigration, promising much tougher action than their official party manifestos. “Many MPs will be making personal commitments on this. I shall be one of them. Others will too. They will want to survive.” Mr Field suggested that the main parties’ real moment of reckoning will come in the 2020 general election, when voters will be able to judge them on how much they did to recast Britain’s EU membership and restrict the right to free movement. “The temporary restriction of immigration must be the cornerstone of our renegotiation,” Mr Field said. “ This election will be the beginning of the break up, but it is the election after next where the electorate will have a clear view of which parties supported it and which did not.” Mr Field said that the failure of the main parties to discuss immigration had fuelled the rise of Ukip. “The denial of the issue has helped Ukip grow.

Labour grew increasingly reliant on Unite's multi-million pound donations under Ed Miliband, as private donors deserted the party. Michael Ellis, a Tory MP, said: " The same old Labour faces, rejected by the public, are throwing their hats in the ring to take over from Ed Miliband. But there's one thing they cannot change. Labour are still reliant on their union paymasters. Last night a spokesman for Labour said: " We are proud to have a wide range of MPs with varying backgrounds.

Mr Corbyn will spend Sunday appointing his shadow cabinet, with most decisions expected by Monday.

Content: and co-ordinated demonstrations of “Continental cooking” at Scottish gas and electricity board showrooms. Three hundred anti-EEC demonstrators gathered outside the Royal Opera House, booing and chanting “Sieg Heil” as the Queen, Prince Philip and Heath arrived for a gala performance to celebrate the new dawn. Yet despite all the opposition – and it was serious – what also strikes one now is the strength of support. Every single national newspaper, including the Daily Mail, the Daily and Sunday Telegraphs and Rupert Murdoch’s Sun, was enthusiastic (the Express papers had been opposed, but came round). Most of the business community was fervently pro-EEC. Despite widespread doubts over whether Britain would ever actually join, and despite the opposition of the Labour Party to membership on the terms proposed, the key Commons vote had been won comfortably, 356 to 244. Sixty-nine Labour rebels voted for entry; only 39 Tory rebels voted to stay out. And within two years, 67 per cent of the British people endorsed the UK’s membership in a referendum. The Labour leadership reversed its position – and one Margaret Thatcher, leader of the opposition, also took a prominent role in the Yes campaign.

So now we were entering a club whose rules were set long before we joined, without our involvement, and not necessarily in our favour. The terms of British membership were particularly poor. At the beginning, Britain – though one of the less prosperous members – was the second-biggest net contributor to the EEC, behind only the far richer Germans, pouring large sums into subsidising French farmers, butter mountains and wine lakes through the Common Agricultural Policy. Not until 1984, 11 years after joining, did Margaret Thatcher secure a permanent two-thirds rebate. “ They say it’s their money, and I say it’s mine,” she remarked at the Brussels summit in March of that year.

Title: The EU: so where did it all go wrong? Headings: The EU: so where did it all go wrong? The EU: so where did it all go wrong? Content: European law did and does override British law, and more and more of it was coming down the tracks from Brussels. In the late 1980s came three pivotal developments that changed the debate dramatically. Until then, the main hostility to Europe had been on the Left, and the main support for it on the Right. On the tenth anniversary of Britain’s accession, in 1983, Thatcher wrote that “the unity of Europe is a goal for which I pledge my government to work”. Labour, meanwhile, fought the election that year on a platform of withdrawal from the EEC. The arrival of Jacques Delors, a French socialist, as president of the European Commission turned that upside down. Delors was deeply ambitious for a more federal Europe, including a single currency. At a famous speech to the TUC in 1988, Delors won over large parts of the British Left with the argument that they could use Europe as a back-door way of achieving the kind of social-democratic state that they had not managed to win via the British electorate. The Tories, the Right-wing press and the business world were horrified at Delors’ vision of a Europe where common social policies would be followed. As Thatcher put it in her famous Bruges speech, “We have not successfully rolled back the frontiers of the state in Britain only to see them reimposed at a European level, with a European superstate exercising a new dominance from Brussels.”

This interactive defines a mass-shooting as four or more people shot dead in a single incident. More detail below By Ashley Pace Joel Gunter Mark Oliver Dan Palmer Dave Lawler ; Joel Gunter ; Mark Oliver and Dan Palmer 14 December 2013 • 8:00am Twenty-three mass shootings have occurred in the US in the year since the Sandy Hook school massacre in Newtown, Connecticut, leaving more than 100 dead across 17 states. Today marks the anniversary of the Newtown shooting, in which Adam Lanza killed 20 children and six teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Lanza, who also killed his mother before leaving home for the school, reportedly had an obsession with mass murders, especially the 1999 Columbine High School massacre in Colorado, in which 13 people died excluding the two perpetrators. While there is no official definition for a mass shooting in US law, the FBI defines a mass murder as the killing of four or more people without an extended period of “cooling-off” by the perpetrator.
