Today, many Americans believe their current society to be ‘post-racial,’ or one that no longer discriminates based on race or ethnicity. This ideal is not only preferable but propagated by public and political discourse, from mainstream media to school curricula fatally omitting the intricacies of race politics critical for reckoning with the circumstances of today. Although the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s undeniably made tremendous gains toward equality in both policy and public opinion, it is all too evident that the social significance of race in America has been all but repudiated. The model minority myth, perhaps the most recently constructed and subconsciously accepted racial script, reveals the surreptitious evolution of racialization beneath the gaze of public scrutiny.
Liberalism on the Rise (c. 1930-1950)
In the 1940s, U.S. leaders’ and policymakers’ postwar discourse avowing American democracy in the name of anticommunism heralded the nationwide movement of racial liberalism, a continuation of 1930s New Deal economic liberalism which saw African Americans and labor activists gain growing acceptance into the Democratic coalition (Schickler, 2010). Racial liberalism further grew as a political refutation of Soviet Union and other international accusations of the American hypocrisy of racism under the “American Creed” of equality. Open practices of racism became increasingly incompatible with and vilified under the tenets of American democracy. Community leaders and policymakers publicly reconstructed racism as an ultimate personal evil, rather than a largely systemic issue allegedly absent from a post-racial, “color-blind” society. On Independence Day in 1955, Los Angeles mayor Fletcher Bowron (pictured far right) declared a “battle” against “those in our midst who have been nurtured on the myths of the superior and inferior races” (Hosang, 2010). In so doing, the U.S. government avouched its altruism and racial innocence, problematizing only the disastrous effects of racism rather than its sources.
Japanese Internment and Reintegration
Without accountability, the rise of racial liberalism and white Americans’ proclamations of loathing for racial discrimination left unanswered people of color’s continued contention with racial segregation in education, housing discrimination, physical violence, disenfranchisement, underemployment, systemic poverty and Eugenicist publications all too prevalent throughout the 1940s. Among the worst human rights violations during this period was the detainment of over 110,000 Japanese Americans (two thirds of whom were citizens) forcefully held in internment camps by the War Relocation Authority (WRA). Prior to Mayor Bowron’s declaration of the “battle” against racism, he publicly stated in 1943 his hope that “some legal method may be worked out to deprive the native-born Japanese of citizenship,” pronouncing them “a race apart” (Hosang, 2010).
The government’s post-internment relocation plans for Japanese Americans were designed to quietly integrate Japanese Americans into mainstream, middle-class society. However, rather than eliminate ethnic difference, the process of resettlement further illuminated racial lines. Deviant behavior conflated with “blackness,” such as the “zoot suits” that local law enforcement associated with drug use and gang activity of Black and Latin Americans, comprised the opposition against which the newly emerging status of Japanese Americans was elucidated. In order to enact its vision of full assimilation, the WRA forced on Japanese Americans orthodoxy such as overt patriotism, prescriptive gender roles and heteronormativity through persistent evaluations of their livelihoods, national loyalties, and co-ethnic ties. Officials regularly reminded Japanese Americans that any “delinquency” would reflect poorly on the resettlement of all Japanese Americans, each burdened with a “responsibility to serve as an ‘ambassador’” of their ethnic group (Wu, 2013). Denied individual agency and other guaranteed protections of citizenship, Japanese Americans’ acquiescence to assimilate set the stage for the non-delinquency and model minority tropes that emerged in the following decades.
Discrimination, disenfranchisement, and pressures to assimilate also affected other ethnic Asian groups navigating the divisive Black-white binary. Higher levels of postwar juvenile delinquency prompted Chinese Americans to petition their right to federal funding due them as newly naturalized American citizens. Unfortunately, these unmet communal needs revealed the stark disparity between legal status and inclusion in the United States, necessitating the Chinese American community to prove its own “fitness” for citizenship. Despite their citizenship status, white community leaders and U.S. policymakers continued to propagate the racialized “otherness” of Chinese ancestry. Conferences held by thought leaders and social workers openly debated the link between Chinese delinquency and a loss of “old Chinese culture” and church influence. Some missionaries and teachers tried to neutralize the anti-immigrant sentiment by insisting that their Chinese students were especially intelligent, even preferable to white students.
Chinese Americans soon realized the need to “rewrite their dissimilarity from stigma to virtue” in order to prove themselves deserving of full civic membership (Wu, 2013). This early conflation between good behavior and citizenship shaped the non-delinquency trope that proved central to Chinese Americans’ negotiations for equal social standing throughout the 1950s. Elite and conservative Chinatown leaders also propagated the non-delinquency trope as well, insisting on Chinese assimilability through traditional culture grounded in filial piety, virtue, and normative family values that aligned perfectly with the anticommunist U.S. ideal of the “nuclear family” as the center of morality and democracy. During the racial liberalism movement, playing into the evolving non-delinquency trope offered Chinese Americans a chance to improve their standing in U.S. society by assimilating into constructed American ideals while relieving the U.S. government of the stigma of accountability for perpetual racial division.
Non-delinquency rhetoric was substantiated by theories and misleading evidence; for example, some publications praised the exceptionally low divorce rates in Chinese communities, despite the prevalence of arranged marriages. Others proclaimed the low use of federal welfare by the Chinese, despite their racial ineligibility as non-citizen aliens before the 1950s, as well as a median income higher than that of whites despite more working family members and underrepresentation in certain fields of work. Community leaders and media outlets continued to circulate high-profile appraisal on the success and assimilability of Chinese Americans based on cultural and family tradition grounded in virtue and discipline. The resultant “pigeonholing” of an entire ethnic group into a predictable pattern of culture and behavior would soon substantiate the “model minority myth”—the positing of Asian Americans as a problem-free, racial “other” as proof of America’s racial progress.
The Cold War Period and the Civil Rights Movement (c. 1950-1970)
During the Cold War period of the 1950s, the U.S. government relied on its racially democratic ideals to maintain legitimacy as a global force tasked with containing communism. The emerging “model minority” stereotypes of docile, assimilating Asian ethnic groups legitimized the U.S. government’s reliance on personal responsibility as the sole metric of success in a “color-blind” society, simultaneously delegitimizing people of color’s contentions against withstanding inequality. Additionally, an idealistic image of complete “melting pot” assimilation into American society successfully disguised continued abuse under the guise of “national security,” such as the threat of authorized deportation of Chinese American “communist subversives” following the 1949 Communist Revolution in China. Like Japanese Americans during World War II, Chinese Americans were also forced into submission in ways their white counterparts were not: under threat of unconstitutional detainment and deportation. Ultimately, despite the pervasive narrative of assimilation, full political participation in society under a shared American identity cannot be fully realized so long as the disparity remains “between the continuing reproduction of racial difference and the process of ethnic assimilation (Lee, 2010).”
As the 1960s gave rise to the Freedom Rides and the myriad other forms of civilian demonstrations that constituted the Civil Rights Movement, government officials continued to mold the model minority myth to fit the necessary emphasis on ethnic assimilation and the absence of institutional inequality based on race. Particularly, the 1960s saw a drastic increase in culture-based theories and empirical evidence used to substantiate allegedly more objective, and seemingly subtler, racial scripts. While perpetuating an exaggerated representation of Asian American success, this rhetoric delegitimized the struggles of other ethnic minorities, specifically those of African Americans, by denying the ever-present issues of systematic inequality and disenfranchisement. Perhaps the most emblematic example of this refutation of persisting inequality in Black communities written by institutional figureheads is The Negro Family: The Case for National Action, more commonly known as the Moynihan Report.
During the peak of the Civil Rights Movement in 1965, Assistant Secretary of Labor Daniel Patrick Moynihan (pictured right), a liberal democrat, published his Moynihan Report in response to African Americans’ demands for political, social, and economic equality as American citizens. Moynihan stated his belief in the individual equality of Black people, but identified cultural depravity as their primary barrier to collective success. According to Moynihan, Blacks were disadvantaged due to previous racial prejudice, and so “collectively, Negroes are among the weakest” in American society. However, he places accountability not onto government institutions and prevailing structural inequalities, but rather onto a cultural deficiency centered on single motherhood, insisting that “Negro family structure in the urban ghettos is crumbling.” By proclaiming his belief in the equality of individuals while supporting theories of cultural inferiority, Moynihan appealed to the democratic idealism of the times while holding African Americans themselves accountable for their own subordinate status within the American polity.
Asian Americans, on the other hand, were held to unrealistic standards and stereotypes, praised for innate cultural characteristics including discipline, hard work, filial piety and Confucian virtue. The 1966 New York Times article “Success Story, Japanese-American Style” written by William Peterson was among the first of many that circulated the narrative of the model minority during the Civil Rights Movement to elucidate and justify the United States’ evolving racial order. Supported by both conservative and liberal political agendas at the time, this rhetoric intended to portray postwar America as a democratic and free meritocracy, where success and achievement was determined by individual effort rather than by the consequences of systemic racial disadvantage.
Based on Japanese Americans’ forced relocation following internment, Peterson asserts that “Japanese Americans are better than any other group in our society, including native-born whites.” Despite the cruelly unconstitutional treatment they faced in detention, Japanese Americans allegedly not only maintained the utmost loyalty to the United States but continued to work hard to secure their livelihoods as a result of ostensibly ingrained cultural and familial values that reward discipline and hard work. Gender ratios and anti-miscegenation laws contributed heavily to Japanese Americans’ late marriages, despite which “they developed a family life both strong and flexible enough to help their children.” This public and unbridled praise directly contradicts the depraved perception of single-parent Black families to whom Moynihan attributed a pathological “culture of poverty” only a year prior.
This model-minority narrative, like countless others, relied heavily on misleading data and crude cultural stereotypes. The New York Times’ “Success Story” used numerical evidence to convey Japanese Americans’ allegedly longer education, higher median income and lower use of welfare, but again failed to acknowledge the higher number of working family members, the underrepresentation of Asian Americans in executive positions and the legal bar from citizenship that rendered welfare unattainable for so many.
What’s Wrong With the Model Minority Myth?
The model minority myth served to mold all Asian ethnic groups into a new racial category of “non-white” that at the same time was definitively non-black, constituting positive but erroneous stereotypes of Asian assimilability. An opportunistic political position rather than a sustained effort at cultural understanding, the model minority myth completely reduces the systemic repression of people of color, who are expected to uphold the full burden of personal responsibility for not only themselves but for their entire ethnic group. Politicians held up the lofty standards of Asian Americans over other racial groups, particularly African Americans, effectively pitting people of color against one another and away from their political qualms in the plight to prove personal responsibility as the ultimate, democratic arbiter of success. Asian Americans, on the other hand, in having to prove their eligibility for civic membership in a racial grey-area, heralded a new age of pan-Asian American identity and solidarity.
The model minority myth has resulted in a devastating failure to acknowledge both the historic and contemporary inequalities, struggles, and disenfranchisement of communities of color. In addition to perpetuating criminalized notions of blackness, the model minority myth has also deprived ethnically diverse Asian American communities of much-needed federal funding and resources. Disaggregated statistics are one way to repudiate the erroneous yet widely accepted data upon which political leaders and media outlets perpetuated the idealistic stereotype. Many statistics used to measure Asian American economic and academic success are highly misleading in that they erase not only ethnic differences but disparities in socioeconomic status, acculturation, and access to resources and opportunities. For example, despite the figure of 50.5% representing those who identify as Asian and have obtained a bachelor’s degree or higher, as compared with a national average of 29.8%, a closer analysis of the Demographic Data & Policy Research on Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders (AAPI Data) paints a very different picture. While some Asian ethnic groups have a high percentage of academic attainment and returns on education, the corresponding figure for Southeast Asian populations such as Cambodian, Hmong, Laotian and Bhutanese Americans remains roughly between 14-17% (Shih et. al., 2019). Asian Americans, while varied in livelihoods and professions, are also considerably underrepresented in executive, corporate roles in the fields of law, government, and academia.
Additionally, model minority stereotypes are substantiated with skewed data regarding financial success claiming that “Asian Americans have the highest average household incomes as compared to other racial groups” (Shih et. al., 2019). According to American Community Surveys, Asian Americans earned a median household income of $71,709 between 2008 and 2012, compared with a national average of $53,046. However, individual Asian ethnic groups vary significantly in their financial status. While some groups earned considerably higher than this average, such as Asian Indians ($95,000) and Filipinos ($80,000), the incomes of Southeast Asian populations including Cambodian, Hmong and Laotian Americans were considerably lower than the cited national average. Also, despite the assertion that Asian Americans have the lowest poverty rate of all racial groups in the U.S., AAPI Data from 2007-2011 reported a 60% increase in poverty since the Great Recession of 2008 as compared with the national average of 27%, making Asian Americans the fastest-growing population in poverty since.
The model minority myth, by portraying Asian Americans as a successful and assimilating “other,” completely disregards intra- and inter-ethnic variance in experiences with institutionalized disadvantage and current social and economic needs, especially those of the more vulnerable, South Asian refugee populations. Despite the increasing poverty rate of Asian Americans, these communities only received 1.4% of New York City’s social service funding between 2002 and 2014 (Shih et. al., 2019). The propagation of the model minority myth, which posits Asian Americans as a completely self-sufficient and problem-free racial other, is extremely detrimental to Asian ethnic populations in denying them sufficient access to much-needed federal services, funding, resources and opportunities.
While the Civil Rights, Black Power and Asian American movements of the 1960s produced significant milestones of racially inclusive policies and institutions, including the establishment of Ethnic Studies curricula and the Voting Rights Act, the evolution of race and the construction of the model minority myth reinforced narratives of immutable racial difference rather than problematizing them, the whole purported goal of racial liberalism. As a result, the propagation of the model minority myth throughout the public consciousness during the 20th century enabled policymakers and political leaders to applaud their alleged achievements of curing the chronic disease of racism in American democracy while merely rewriting the prescription for perpetualized racial difference. Unmitigated racial disadvantage is devastating both for people of color and for U.S. society in its entirety, systematically barring countless millions of citizens from contributing to the progressive and economic growth of American society by means of equal access to resources, opportunities, education, employment, protection against violence, and otherwise all-around acceptance into both the American polity as well as an American identity. Fostering a society of truly equal opportunity for the power and potential of all its citizens cannot occur before properly acknowledging, dissecting and mitigating the causes and effects of an ancient and deleterious legacy.

Maybe sad and at times a little tearful, but this book was a medley of teen angst covered in some pretty wicked humour. First and foremost I should probably stress that I do love teen angst, all kinds of it! I love going through the awkwardness, unnecessary self loathing and torturous/5(K). The honest truth is she barely sleeps because she’s caught somewhere between love and heartbreak. Racking her brain wondering about you and if it’s all in her head but wanting what she feels to be true. All her best friends know you. From the moment you came into her .
There will be times in your relationship when you can’t be with your girl, and you’ll miss her. So here are some cute things to text your girlfriend. You can’t always be around your girlfriend. In fact, there will be times where you can’t see her. Christian: Love is a many splendored thing, love, lifts us up where we belong, all you need is love. Satine: Please, don't start that again. C: All you need is love. S: A girl has got to eat. C.
I've sent her an email for Christmas just wishing her the best but I doubt she'll respond. I understand through therapy and friends that I can't control her actions and that she's an ex, etc.. I've also been told that since she won't talk back to me that's a sign she still feels something too, but I'm trying not to read into her emotions. You telling this girl you just met that you miss her in a serious tone is like you trying to chase a cat and making it love you. It's going to run away! The cat comes up to you; the cat chooses you, when you've got a bit of mystery and challenge and intrigue about you, then curiosity will get the cat.

I’m running a marathon in my dream, which is odd because i haven’t actually run once since the mid-1960s. It’s going OK as far as marathons go.
It’s around the 18 mile point, which strikes me as odd. Everything is sailing along in a marathony way, until orange cones across the street direct the race through a library.
On the library door, a sign says we must find two books in the library using the Dewey Decimal System. The names of the books are on the back of our bibs. We must then write a short book review on a legal pad next to the Dewey index cabinets, and get two other runners to sign it.
This strikes me as highly unusual in a race. I know in the Barkley Marathons you’re required to find books and tear out the pages, but not actually read them. But rules is rules.
I HATE the Dewey Decimal System. When I die, I picture hell as nothing but Hannity and Ingraham while eating those creepy white popsicles. Why would you go to the trouble of making a popsicle and then coloring it all white? Why would you go the trouble of making a news channel and then coloring it all white? None of which has anything to do with the Dewey Decimal System, but still.
I dutifully (Dewey-tifully?) find my homework. One is a recipe book for tofu (seriously). I am relieved because it’s fairly easy to fake a review quickly. The other is “The Talented Ribkins,” a novel I had just started in real life, which I seem to be aware of in the dream. I skim through enough to make a valiant effort at faking it. Done and done.
I look around the library. The only other runner in the room is Tom Whitehurst Jr., a fine editorial page editor and a quality runner. Why is he in this dream? I ask him to sign my paper, but he won’t because I once screwed up his editorial page. This is entirely plausible, because I’ve screwed up a LOT of pages.
In the end, I just forge two signatures, scribbling them Mo Sheppo style. How would they ever catch me? I put my sheet of legal paper in the box, waddle along on legs that have long since locked up because they thought we were done, and get back on the course.
A mile later, I realize the awful truth. There was a timing mat on the way in to the library, and another on the way out. They will know who was in the library a t the same time as me. They will know the signatures are fake.
I freeze in the road. Do I keep going, with a DQ an eventual certainty? Do I go back and try to get legitimate signatures, even though it will add two miles to the course?
I am transfixed in the roadway as runners pass by. I look at my watch.
And then I wake up.
Some dreams are weirder than others.
No dream librarian named Jenny?!

Old Man and His Soul"?
The Old Man and his Soul is an inspirational saga
that reframes death and dying as a spiritual
adventure. It offers a universal story of profound
value to seekers of truth who explore the mystery of
life and death on their personal journey toward union

elderly man who leaves his ancestral home after the
death of his wife and walks through the deserts and
forests of Northern India during his seasons of
seeking as a sadhu. When he finds his spiritual
teacher in a Holy City, he progresses in his internal
journey and experiences forgiveness, understanding
and release with his spiritual practice during his
seasons of service.
Farida Sharan journeyed to India over sixty times to sit at the feet of her spiritual teacher. This story of the old man was gifted as a dream during a visit to her spiritual colony near the foothills of the Himalayas.

The Books We Have Researched

The Book of Jasher
The Book of Jasher (also, Jashar) or the Book of the Upright or the Book of the Just Man (Hebrew: סֵפֶר הַיׇּשׇׁר; transliteration: sēfer hayyāšār) is an unknown book mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. ” Jasher is referenced in Joshua chapter 10:13 and 2 Samuel 1:18 To us it is a mirror image of Genesis which has 50 chapters and Jasher has 92 Chapters. More Detail”
Apocrypha are works, usually written works, that are of unknown authorship, or of doubtful origin. In the context of the Jewish and Christian Bibles, where some texts are of unknown authorship, Apocrypha usually is used by Protestants to refer to a set of texts included in the Septuagint and therefore included in the Catholic canon, but not in the Hebrew Bible. The word’s origin is the Medieval Latin adjective apocryphus, “secret, or non-canonical”, from the Greek adjective ἀπόκρυφος (apokryphos), “obscure”, from the verb ἀποκρύπτειν (apokryptein), “to hide away”. “We have found this information to be very important to us. It deals with Prophecy that pertains to the seed of Jacob’s People. You will know what will become of Jacob’s Children dealing with Esau’s Descendants.” 2 Esdras chapter 6:8.9
The books of the King James in 1611
The King James Version (KJV), also known as Authorized Version (AV) or simply King James Bible (KJB), is an English translation of the Christian Bible for the Church of England begun in 1604 and completed in 1611.The books of the King James Version include the 39 books of the Old Testament, an intertestamental section containing 14 books of the Apocrypha, and the 27 books of the New Testament. “This would give you the complete Bible”

Join us to learn more about his pioneering work and celebrate his legacy.


Here’s a list of some of the cool books I’ve read lately, to inspire those who are looking for something to read this year.
Photos from my Instagram. To see what I’m reading, follow #livrosdacintia.
Wonder (R. J. Palacio)
Being different is hard. Auggie, a boy with a facial abnormality that seems to be the only thing people can see in him. The book is about his first year at regular school after being homeschooled. The more we know Auggie, the more he seems like everyone else. And that gets us thinking about how cruel we can be with people who are different from us.
The Book Thief (Markus Zusak)
This is one of those we read for a good cry. Death itself is the narrator of this book about a little girl with a though past and a strong mind caught in the middle of the war at a nazi occupied German city.
Budapest (Chico Buarque)
Chico Buarque is a Brazilian artist best know for his music, with brilliant lyrics. That was enough reason to get me curious to check his ability as a book writer. I started with this one after watching the movie (Budapest, 2009). It’s the story of a ghost writer that falls in love with the Hungarian capital and, trying to walk away from his personal and relationship issues, decides to move there and try to learn the local language. Full of complex characters and complicated relations, Chico’s books always get me thinking about the great mess we all are inside and how nothing is as simple and binary as black and white, good or bad in this life.
The Fault in our Stars (John Green)
Such a cute book, this one. It’s about the friendship of a girl who lives with cancer and some guys (also living with the disease) she meets in a support group. There’s romance, family drama and feet-sweeping moments in it. At some point, it makes you wanna hop on the first plane and go make that trip you’ve always wanted to. It’s an easy to read, feel-good book, and I loved it.
The Animal Farm (George Orwell)
Orwell, this genius, uses a very interest metaphor to talk about politics: once upon a time, a group of farm animals decided to stand up against the way humans were enslaving them, kicked them out and took power to themselves. This community oriented administration starts getting weird after some of the animals preach that “all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others”. Great read to think about utopia, oppressive systems and so on.
Murder in the Orient Express (Agatha Christie)
In this classic book, a murder takes place in a train that’s stuck in a snow storm. Detective Hercule Poirot (a famous character of Christie’s) has to solve the mystery and find out who did it by interviewing all passengers and putting the pieces together. I use to love the author’s style when younger: her books used to leave me wondering “who’s the murderer?” even when taking a shower. Nowadays, I don’t get as much obsessed about her books, but still find them a good read.
The Little Prince (Antoine de Saint-Exupéry)
When I was leaving Switzerland, a friend presented me with The Little Prince, to encourage me to keep practicing my French and to never forget her, whom I have befriended. It’s a kids book, and yet, gets you thinking all sort os philosophical stuff, like the meaning of friendship, happiness, hurry, life and death. Plus, it has beautiful illustrations.

If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. George Orwell. He recognizes the right-fighter for what Javert is and does not require anything from him; nothing at all. No apology, no setting the record straight, no need to show the other his wrongs; just gives him freedom. That’s humility! Learning from Valjean. No matter how many times I watch that movie, or read the book, I can not get enough of the.

If liberalism is to mean anything at all it should mean the right to pursue one’s own course within the bounds of the law without interference from others. This allows us to maximise our own happiness without causing unacceptable harm to other people. As free speech is nominally protected by the law, that society is able to restrict it as it.

Talking from 9 to 5: Women and Men at Work
Written in 1994, this is an eye-opening discussion of some common differences between how men and women are raised to communicate, and how this impacts work life. Full of both first- and second-hand examples, each chapter discusses issues like the glass ceiling, sense of authority, negotiation tactics, and other issues in the career world from the perspective of typical communicative differences between men and women, without further perpetuating broad stereotypes about what either gender 'should' do. A progressive read, the book nonetheless steers away from a political agenda to present a genuinely objective account of differences between how men and women are taught to talk, and how both men and women can benefit in the workplace from learning more about these typical differences.
Agile Project Management for speedy results!
From one of my favorite series for diving into any topic comes an easy-to-read introduction to Agile Project Management from a variety of perspectives, including Scrum, Extreme Programming, Lean Development, and more. Probably not the best book for those of us with agile experience, but a great read for anyone who's heard the term and wants to better understand what's involved in going agile.
Lean UX: Applying Lean Principles to Improve User Experience
Perhaps really more about project management than UX, this book was easy to digest, and presented UX Design in the context of agile project management using Scrum. Agile principles such as outcomes over output, freedom to fail, and releasing early and often were integrated into developing a streamlined and low-waste process for user experience design.
Just Enough Research
The promotional site sums it up pretty well: "A brief cookbook of research methods. Learn how to discover your competitive advantages, spot your own blind spots and biases, understand and harness your findings, and why you should never, ever hold a focus group." It's a really nice handbook for maximizing UX research efforts, regardless of the size of your operation, although the examples in the book tend to lean towards an agency working for a fairly sizable organization.


Are you in (the Media)? [Είσαι (στα) Μέσα;]
The interactive educational tool “Are you in (the Media)?” consists of an online quiz and an educational study guide, addressed to high school students. The online quiz covers a wide range of topics – from aesthetics and ideology to technology, language codes, production, distribution, reception and internet security. While the quiz provides a starting point for assessing media knowledge, the study guide provides a more comprehensive and analytical approach on MIL. With explanatory comments on the answers of the quiz, informative texts, suggested learning activities and online links to relevant content and to digital tools, it aims not only to disseminate basic knowledge, but also to develop competent digital and media skills.
Cine-inclusion in the classroom [Cin(e)περίληψη στην τάξη]
The educational guide “Cine-inclusion in the classroom”, the new digital publication of iDea, marks the expansion of the efforts of the National Centre of Audiovisual Media and Communication (EKOME) for a universally accessible film and audiovisual literacy.
As part of its actions to promote Media and Information Literacy, EKOME took the initiative to make universally accessible two films related to inclusion issues that have been produced through the educational programs of the Chania Film Festival. A continuation of this action is the creation of the study guide “Cine-inclusion in the classroom” for the film “One school, two worlds”, addressed to teachers of General and Special Needs an Inclusive Education and concerns both visually impaired or hearing impaired children and children without sensory difficulties, aiming to promote digital and film literacy of all students, enhancing empathy, acceptance, educational and social inclusion.
Films: A language without borders
EKOME launched a collaboration with the British Film Institute by offering new resources on film education. In this context, we translated three Study Guides into Greek as part of the project “Film – A Language Without Borders”, co-funded by the Creative Europe MEDIA programme, in cooperation with Vision Kino and the Danish Film Institute. The guides, classified by age, provide teachers with the opportunity to approach crucial contemporary social and political issues, such as migration, industrialisation and globalisation, as well as the eternal challenges of emotions, identity and growing up through the fascinating exploration of European film.
Two modern-time multi-awarded films, Paddington (2014), My Life as a Courgette (2016) – Academy Awards and BAFTA nominated, Annecy winner – and a series of short films dating back to the silent era: The Red Balloon (1956) – Academy Award winner for best script, Jemima and Johnny (1966), Palle Alone in the World (1949) are selected to be watched and worked upon in the classroom.
EKOME participated as a national partner in the European project “EduMediatest: An interactive tool for evaluation and training”, approved by the European Commission in 2019, with the aim of educating secondary school students in the proper management of information through the assessment of students’ knowledge and skills in media and information in the digital environment.
EKOME was a national partner and member of the European consortium of the project with stakeholders from seven EU countries. Project leader of the project was the Regulatory Authority for Audiovisual of Catalonia, CAC – Conseil Audiovisual de Catalunya and partners from Spain (Universitat Pompeu Fabra), Portugal (Portuguese Regulatory Authority for the Media), Croatia (Agency for Electronic Media), Slovakia (RVR), Ireland (Dublin West Education Centre) and France (Conseil supérieur del’ audiovisuel – CSA).
EKOME carries out a series of special actions and targeted interventions aimed at strengthening young people’s critical thinking, regarding the use of digital media and visual culture.


In Philosophy | By aaron
I’ve spent time building my own approach to creativity and the innovation process.

My book on consumer products and the innovation process is available on Amazon.com. It makes a great anniversary present. Here’s a brief description:
In consumer product development, many leading companies seem to have an innate understanding of how to innovate from within, and therefore keep the innovation efforts inside their walls. Other companies succeed by involving outsiders – in the form of innovation-for-hire specialty firms.

This book explores the popular methods for achieving product innovation by examining the leading literature on the subject, as well as providing insight from some of the top innovators working today. The author also presents his own challenging notions about why internal innovation persists, and when innovation is better left to outside specialists. The implications help to widen our understanding of how innovation works, how to foster creativity, and how to successfully bring a product to market. This book is a must-read for management, marketing professionals, and anyone who has ever wondered why some teams create exceptional products and others miss the mark.

Parental alienation is when one parent needlessly programs a child to reject the other parent, and often other members of the family. Alienation can happen in any family, very quickly and without warning, severely disrupting children's development and their lifelong mental health. Children subjected to these specific forms of pathological parenting and psychological control can become brainwashed, induced with delusions and so enmeshed with an alienator that only protective separation will enable them to quickly regain a normal mental health profile.
Effective interventions are, however, denied by professionals and courts. Instead, parents, grandparents and wider family members can be legitimately ostracised from children overnight by alienators, often with the active collaboration of several agencies of state, not least social workers and family judges.
Stuart Hontree (a pseudonym) details the risks involved with private family courts and how they often ruin or sever biological and family connections. He collates the principles of psychology and medical experts with how family courts deal with, and contribute to, the growing problem of parental alienation. The literature of leading clinical, forensic and psychotherapeutic experts who form the foundations for best practice is then compared to the normal practices of the UK family courts that 'deal' with parental alienation. The results are shocking.
The neurology of the human attachment system that drives us to form intimate bonds is explained, and how its disruption and manipulation by alienators destroys childhoods and wider families. The book is full of advice on how to spot the warning signs, typical alienation strategies, and how to try to insulate children against the risky effects. There are survival tips for targeted parents and a crash-course in the relevant law.
Attachment science is, however, ignored by the court's child professionals, enabling their construction of an alternative reality where anything and everything goes, producing inconsistent perspectives and decisions regardless of the law, case facts, science or the likely outcome for a child. Any professionals' ill-informed or morally disengaged opinion, mistake, abuse or obscenity can be retrospectively smoothed over in a secret court, simply by manipulating language and 'judging' it was done 'in a child's best interests.'
Dozens of real cases and judgments are analysed through a clinical and forensic lens. The conduct and reasoning of family court professionals in secret courts is scrutinised. The institutions and behaviours of the family court, judiciary, social and legal professions, and the civil service, are evaluated within the models of organisational and corruption research. The conclusion drawn from the consistent evidence from the cases monitored is that, instead of using or developing informed processes and reasoning, these institutions abuse the secrecy of the courts to engage in covert political and corporate activism, failing in their duty to protect children, often misusing their authority and veil from public view to inflict and cover up the damage of inadequate, inimical and sometimes wholly corrupt processes on families.
The book also shows how sincere attempts by Parliament to reform family courts are persistently scuppered by the civil service, court agencies and the judiciary, so no positive changes designed to help vulnerable or alienated children are ever implemented.
Parental Alienation, Attachment and Corrupt Law


Buying or selling real estate is a major enterprise that entails a lengthy procedure with numerous moving pieces. So, whether you’re a buyer or a seller, you need to be well-informed and comprehend as much as possible. The problem is that what you get online is frequently incomplete at best and completely incorrect at worst. So, before taking that big step, it’s a good idea to go old school and read the best literature on the subject. The following are our top five real estate books for buyers and sellers in Boise.
1. Home Buying for Dummies
The “for Dummies” franchise offers a handbook on practically every essential topic, with roughly 2,500 separate guides in its simplification series. That includes real estate books for the novice or overwhelmed who don’t want to get bogged down in details.
“The most recent edition of Home Buying For Dummies, published in 2016, incorporates recent market updates and offers well-researched information on every step of the home-buying process, including how to select a team of professionals to assist you in your search, how to avoid obscene closing costs, how to get the best mortgage possible, and more.”
2. Nolo’s Essential Guide to Buying Your First Home, Ilona Bray, J.D.
One of the best real estate books for first-time home buyers is Nolo’s Essential Guide to Buying Your First Home. It “contains all the answers to topics you might not have considered yet, such as researching local markets and listings, developing a budget, qualifying for financing, successfully negotiating and closing agreements, and much more.”
The book includes contributions from 15 industry experts, including “[b]rokers, attorneys, mortgage specialists, a home inspector, a neighborhood researcher, and others.” The result is a thorough examination of the first-time buyer’s process, as well as “real-life anecdotes from over 20 first-time homebuyers.”
3. The 106 Common Mistakes Homebuyers Make (And How to Avoid Them), Gary W. Eldred
This one of our greatest real estate books takes a different approach by laying out all of the common blunders made by homebuyers and how to prevent them. It’s especially useful for first-time buyers because it highlights the most typical blunders, from “negotiating with sellers to looking for the best mortgage and handling closing,” among others.
The106 Common Mistakes Homebuyers Make (And How to Avoid Them) is a collection of “hundreds of homebuyers, real estate agents, home builders, and mortgage lenders’ experiences.” The notion is that by looking at mistakes from all sides, you’ll be able to prevent making them.
4. Selling Your House: Nolo’s Essential Guide, Ilona Bray, J.D.
This real estate book provides a thorough explanation of the entire selling process. Even so, it adheres to the essentials so you don’t get mired down in irrelevant minutiae. The selling advice in Selling Your House: Nolo’s EssentialGuide is usually straightforward and to-the-point.
The emphasis on preliminary work, particularly decluttering, is very valuable. But the book doesn’t just advise you to declutter; it also provides you with a number of practical recommendations to help you do so successfully.
Another standout aspect of selling Your House: Nolo’s Essential Guide is the chapter on identifying and then maximizing your home’s best characteristics. This is a crucial component of effective marketing and a component of modern, innovative sales strategies.
5. Next Generation Real Estate: New Rules for Smarter Home Buying & Faster Selling, Brendon DeSimone
This is one of our top five real estate books since it contains useful information for both buyers and sellers and is one of the most useful resources accessible. Next Generation Real Estate: New Rules for SmarterHome Buying & Faster Selling features interviews with prominent executives from major real estate firms like as Apartment Therapy, Zillow, and Trulia, as well as advice from them.
This book includes insights on utilizing current, modern trends, as well as advice from leading industry professionals. You’ll learn how to leverage cutting-edge technologies and implement cutting-edge best practices. You’ll learn unique, creative tactics as a seller, as well as how to get an advantage by getting inside consumers’ thoughts.
Are Real Estate Books Enough?
Are these books, as rich and full of actionable knowledge as they are, sufficient? In the vast majority of cases, they aren’t. Nothing compares to the competence, experience, and knowledge of a knowledgeable local Boise agent. Then there’s the personal touch and assistance that comes with working with an agent.
So, certainly, do your research and learn everything you can. Then go out and pick a decent agent who is well-versed in the local markets. You’ll then have the knowledge you need, as well as expert help to supplement what you’ve learned. Contact us immediately at (208)314-1350 if you’ve read the real estate books and are ready to work with a professional agent.

My books Games in the Philosophy of Biology and Modeling Scientific Communities were published with the Cambridge University Press Elements Series.
Modeling Scientific Communities surveys models used to study the workings of science, including those that look at credit incentives, selective processes in science, social network structures, epistemic landscapes, and statistical practice. This book is helpful to those interested in metascience and the structure of scientific communities who would like to know more about formal models of these topics.
Games in the Philosophy of Biology surveys the use of game theory in biology and the philosophy of biology. The book considers work on signaling games, information theory, the prisoner’s dilemma, the stag hunt, and the bargaining game. It looks at questions like: what is meaning in the biological realm? How should we account for prosociality? What is the relationship between social modeling in the human and biological realms?


The management of infertility using acupuncture is an expanding area of practice and one which is frequently rewarding for Tcm acupuncture practitioners. Acupuncture for Ivf and Assisted Reproduction has been specially prepared to meet the growing demand for information in this area and draws upon 20 years combined experience of the authors together with the latest evidence from both orthodox medicine and Tcm.
Richly illustrated and clearly written throughout, the book takes the reader through the anatomy and physiology of reproductive medicine (from both an orthodox and Tcm perspective) and explains the underlying basis of orthodox medical fertility tests and investigations. The volume then explores the pathology and aetiology of Tcm syndromes and shows how common fertility-related conditions, such as endometriosis and male factor infertility, affect Assisted Reproductive Technology (art) success rates.
It explains in great detail how to take a reproductive medical history and successfully diagnose Tcm syndromes. Acupuncture for Ivf and Assisted Reproduction also provides guidelines on how to regulate the menstrual cycle in preparation for Ivf treatment and shows how lifestyle can affect fertility and Art success rates. Placing a strong emphasis on the practical aspects of patient care, Acupuncture for Ivf and Assisted Reproduction contains an abundance of case history templates, algorithmic acupuncture treatment pathways and patient fact sheets and will be ideal for all acupuncture practitioners working in this field

Once in Golconda: A True Drama of Wall Street 1920-1938 by John Brooks
Great Quote: “But it was not only money power that Morgan & Co. exercised over Wall Street in the 1920’s. In addition it was the style setter, the court of last appeal, and to a certain extent, the conscious of the place.”

Modernization of the original ballad text is the first step in making facsimile transcriptions. Deciding just how much to "modernize" the original text was difficult and time-consuming. The EBBA team consulted other modern editions of early broadside ballads, such as William Chappell and Joseph Woodfall Ebsworth's Roxburghe Ballads edition, and concluded that they were often too free in altering the punctuation and spelling of the original, or in not indicating when words were being guessed at or reconstructed from another edition of the ballad. In the end, we decided that it was important to preserve most of the original spelling of the ballad, so as to capture a "feel" of the original text, while at the same time converting to modern print the features of black-letter and of other early modern typefaces that impede readability for the non expert. After extensive discussion by members of the EBBA team, extending over more than a year, a set of rules were adopted for transcribing early modern print to modern roman font detailed below.
Rules for Transcription
- Capitalization and punctuation are left unchanged.
- Spellings are retained, with the following exceptions:
- Letters that appear inverted, misplaced, or dropped (below the line of type) are corrected
- "long s" becomes "s"
- "u" becomes "v" when it is meant to stand in place of a "v"
- "i" becomes "j" and "I" is rendered as "J" when they are meant to stand in place of a "j" or "J"
- "vv" is changed to "w" and "uu " to w
- diphthongs are modernized to "ae" and "oe"
- "ée" (with an accent over the first e) is typed simply "ee"
- "=" is rendered as a hyphen when it is being used as such
- abbreviations are typed out in full: e.g. "&c" is written as "etc."; "y" followed by a raised "e ” is typed as "the" or "thee" as appropriate; "y" followed by a raised "t" is typed as "that"; "cōmand" (with a horizontal line above the "o"), is typed as "command," "qd." is spelled out "quod," etc.
- But “viz “ is typed out as "viz", "&" remains "&" (not "and"), and "Esq." is not spelled out as "Esquire" as these abbreviations are still in regular use today
- Spacing is retained when it indicates indentations for new stanzas, for certain lines of the stanzas, and for refrains, but
- cramped or large spaces between words are not imitated; these are typed normally unless, in the latter case, the spacing is exceptionally large
- when a last word of a line is printed above or below the line with a "( " or "[ " placed in front of it, the whole line is placed on the same line of print.
Hard to decipher words and phrases:
- If a section of the print is blurred, blotched, or faded, but is still somewhat discernible, and if the obscured letters can be logically deduced based on the context of the text (or by consulting an available printed transcription of the ballad or a printed edition of another version of the ballad or by consulting other online facsimiles in EEBO or ECCO), the transcriber simply makes the transcription without drawing attention to the problematic area.
- But if the original text is so faded or blotched as to be undiscernable (that is, there is no trace of letters for this part of the text), even if the transcriber can make a good guess as to the missing text based on the methods listed above, the words should be placed within square brackets, [like this].
- And if some word or phrase clearly existed in the text but is entirely missing from the text (i.e., the page is torn or the ink not visible), and the transcriber cannot make out what that text might be (based on the methods listed above), that fact is rendered simply by [?].
- Handwriting is transcribed only when it completes torn or damaged text, and is placed in square brackets. See below for font rules.
In transcribing from black-letter to roman font:
- If the title or imprint is not in black letter (they are often in early modern "white letter" or roman font), we type the words in roman italics; any italics within the typing are then rendered in bold italics.
- If a word or phrase appears in the ballad in the original in roman font, it is also rendered in italics. Place names, personal names, and the imprint in the original ballad are usually in roman font.
- Handwriting is transcribed in Monotype Corsiva and placed in square brackets, except in the Pepys collection, where handwriting was rendered in Lucida Calligraphy.
