Flowers never fail to take my breathe away.

Sadly on too many days, school has the same effect on me

I contacted school to let them know that son was still struggling but as it was the last week of school, he would give the online lessons a go. School said that they would let all his teachers know and would appropriately restrict his work demands. This week had to be a phased return. That was 8.30am on Monday morning. His first lesson went ok then it was time for the second to start. He was told to complete a one hour test (starting in 5 minutes) which the rest of the class has had a week to revise for. In fact some of the questions related to course material which was only introduced during the week he was absent. Apparently even if a child is sick, that child should still log into the school system and check all class lesson notes.

So much for a phased return to schooling.

This called for the inspirational powers of hot milk, digestive biscuits and toast. The test was completed with much common sense and quite a bit of creative guesswork. Looking at some of the questions – his Dad would have been as much use as air conditioning is in Yorkshire.

That was the first morning of the school week. This could be a long one. Good job we have many packets of biscuits and chocolate ready to go…

  1. Weeeeell that’s shitty. I know I’m jumping into the middle of things–is he feeling better? Was it just flu/cold type junk? I know I have to check in on my own students no matter how I’m feeling, but that’s as a teacher, not a student.

    Speaking of, I’ve been neck-deep in finals, so that’s why I’ve been offline for a bit. You sound tired, but not down and out. The flowers are gorgeous, and I’m sure biscuits and furry cuddles with your four-legged friends will help. Just make sure you take a moment to breathe for yourself. I’m hoping for that breath in a week or so. Sigh…

  2. Los Angeles and San Diego counties have officially declared no on-site classes when the new school year starts in 3 or 4 weeks. Whereas somewhere else has declared no need for kids to wear masks at school as it might “harm them”. Gaaahhh!!

    Good luck with studies this week… to me as well… I’m already back to blowing off my class.

  3. I wonder if that would make a good ad campaign…

    “Hey, you exhausted? Sick of the half-wits running your son’s school? Have some of Gordon’s Handmade Biscuits™! You will feel better than before after trying our pastry delights, so come on down, try one today! Now in Pecan.”

    I think I’ve got a million dollar idea on our hands. Also, good luck! 😁

  4. Beautiful flowers and stunning view!

    Yeah here too, they do expect you to be responsible for your own education… my daughter is also middle school…

    I believe they do that to get them prepared for high school… which is a little bit more on you… and then college is all you.

    So I think they are just trying to train to be in the habit of handling their own selves ? Preparing them kinda so not an intense shock later. That’s what I figure anyway.

    Your schools sound more ??? Strict and controlled – no movement for special circumstances

    He will do ok, he has a good teacher ✌

      1. Hahaha… one thing no one tells you when you have kids… you get to go back to school seemingly forever lol … I have 3 … I can’t escape school!!! I didn’t like it the first time around lol

        But you will do good…

        What I find… is at first I do amazing – know what I’m talking about … then high school comes and they need help in math … yeah not my forte … you lost me at algebra – and we have common core – I hope you don’t have that… they don’t let you just teach them your ways … you have to do it exactly as they say or is wrong even if you have the right answer. I hate that!!! Nothing annoys me more lol

        It will be ok… you actually do really good with him and you know where his strengths and weaknesses are. That can only help you ✌

  5. I wonder if anyone present, will ever forget the day my son left school for the last time (years before it was due). He was a tall boy for his age, well above some of the teachers. A gently giant and still is. Thing is, he had been ill and on the returning day, a teacher decided stupidly not to listen to the quiet sore throat voice of reason, that tried to whisper “I’ve been ill… “. Demanding fervently some homework my son had not been given and going on and on at my son (who like I mentioned had been ill). Unfortunately, the teacher then said something even more stupid along the lines of “When you’re in this school in that uniform…” and this then prompted my son to silently take the clothes off, fold them onto the desk and walk out so proud of what his mother gave him to wear on his VERY first day. Homeschool it was from then on. Having looked up online the free support group Education Otherwise and muckling through, some things not working, other things brilliantly.

      1. When the teacher was a jerk, he stayed respectful to the instructions given him and came away head held high. I couldn’t be more proud, but who knows what might have happened if it was another child and the parents had instructed the child to react aggressively to defend his rights?

      1. I just completed an online allergy course and test. So yes, there’s so many names for things e.g. milk is also casein, lactyc yeast, whey solids,… Reading the ingredients is so complicated, but also so important if someone has allergies or preferences e.g. vegan.

      2. Most likely, the problem there is, either pasteurization or the growth hormone or the antibiotics…or all of that, combined. When you heat milk, you destroy all the nutrients (the vitamins, the lactose, any minerals…all twisted out of shape). That, alone, can make it toxic to many. Plus, you have growth hormones injected into the cows and all the antibiotics to keep them well. Don’t even get me started on the GMO grain most are fed. That contributes, too. I don’t drink milk. Haven’t for years. And, the only cheese I eat is organic, grass-fed raw milk cheese. Anything else is poison.

      3. I was out yesterday doing some watercolour painting of hedgerow flowers. In the distance I could hear a cow bellowing for it’s calf and I guess it will have been taken, so the cows milk can be made available to humans. The calf will have been killed or less rare here, put in one of those tiny field shelters and fed rehydrated dry milk powder. This is just saying the reality of dairy, no opinions expressed here, but you can guess I have some.

Ravi Cannonier-Watson In ‘The Nutcracker’

December 12, 2017

BUEI Films and the Royal Opera House will be hosting a production of “The Nutcracker” on Sunday, December 17th, with the production set to feature Bermuda’s Ravi Cannonier-Watson.

The event poster says, “In Peter Wright’s classic production for The Royal Ballet, the stage sparkles with theatrical magic — a Christmas tree grows before our eyes, toy soldiers come to life to fight the villainous Mouse King and Clara and the Nutcracker are whisked off to the Kingdom of Sweets on a golden sleigh.

“Tchaikovsky’s score contains some of ballet’s best-known melodies, from the flurrying Waltz of the Snowflakes to the dream-like Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy — all brilliantly set in Wright’s choreography. Running time 135 minutes [one interval].

“This production features Bermuda’s own Ravi Cannonier-Watson! Come and meet Ravi at this special event!”

BUEI members cost $20, while the cost for non-members is $25; the cost for students is $10.

Tickets can be purchased at BUEI’s Oceans Gift Shop or by calling 294-0204. Part proceeds to help with Ravi’s school expenses.

Feyenoord vs Borussia Dortmund 11/01/20

11 January 2020

Feyenoord and Borussia Dortmund will face off in a friendly meeting at the Estadio Municipal Antonio Lorenzo Cuevas this weekend.

Feyenoord have won all four of their previous matches, including friendlies, with each of those games producing over 2.5 goals and seeing both teams score. An early goal is on the cards here, as five of Feyenoord’s previous seven matches have featured at least one goal inside the opening half an hour. Their defensive frailties have seen Dick Advocaat’s men fail to shut their opponents out in nine of their last 11 outings, allowing over 1.5 match goals on four of those occasions. Still, ‘De club aan de Maas’ boast a solid overall record against Dortmund (W1, D2, L1), with each of those four H2Hs seeing both teams hit the net.

Meanwhile, the BVB have struggled to pick up a win in their last three outings (D2, L1), with two of those games featuring three or more goals and seeing both teams score. In fact, virtually all of Dortmund’s matches over the past few months have overseen a lot of action. Twelve of their last 13 fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals, with a goalless draw with Standard Liege in a friendly last time out being a lone exception. Dortmund’s dip in form has coincided with a recent lack of goals, as they’ve scored just one goal in their previous two games. That’s a sharp contrast to their free-scoring form from the first half of December that saw Lucien Favre’s men net 2+ match goals in five successive fixtures.

Bíblia UPDV

1 Samuel 1

1 Now there was a certain man from Ramathaim of the Zuphites, of the hill-country of Ephraim, and his name was Elkanah, the son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite:

2 and he had two wives; the name of the one was Hannah, and the name of other Peninnah: and Peninnah had children, but Hannah had no children.

3 And this man went up out of his city from year to year to worship and to sacrifice to Yahweh of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, priests to Yahweh, were there.

4 And when the day came that Elkanah sacrificed, he gave to Peninnah his wife, and to all her sons and her daughters, portions:

5 but to Hannah he gave a special portion; for he loved Hannah, but Yahweh had shut up her womb.

6 And her rival provoked her intensely, to make her fret, because Yahweh had shut up her womb.

7 And [as] he did so year by year, when she went up to the house of Yahweh, so she provoked her; therefore she wept, and did not eat.

8 And Elkanah her husband said to her, Hannah, why do you weep? And why don't you eat? And why is your heart grieved? Am I not better to you than ten sons?

9 So Hannah rose up after they had eaten in Shiloh, and after they had drank. Now Eli the priest was sitting on his seat by the door-post of the temple of Yahweh.

10 And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed to Yahweh, and wept intensely.

11 And she vowed a vow, and said, O Yahweh of hosts, if you will indeed look at the affliction of your slave, and remember me, and not forget your slave, but will give to your slave a man-child, then I will give him to Yahweh all the days of his life, and no razor will come upon his head.

12 And it came to pass, as she continued praying before Yahweh, that Eli was watching her mouth.

13 Now Hannah, she spoke in her heart; only her lips moved, but her voice wasn't heard: therefore Eli thought she had been drunk.

14 And Eli said to her, How long will you be drunk? Put your wine away from you.

15 And Hannah answered and said, No, my lord, I am a woman of a sorrowful spirit: I have drank neither wine nor strong drink, but I poured out my soul before Yahweh.

16 Don't count your slave for a wicked woman; for out of the abundance of my complaint and my provocation I have spoken until now.

17 Then Eli answered and said, Go in peace; and the God of Israel grant your petition that you have asked of him.

18 And she said, Let your slave find favor in your sight. So the woman went her way, and ate; and her countenance was no more [sad].

19 And they rose up early in the morning, and worshiped before Yahweh, and returned, and came to their house to Ramah: and Elkanah had sex with Hannah his wife; and Yahweh remembered her.

20 And it came to pass, when the time came about, that Hannah became pregnant, and gave birth to a son; and she named him Samuel, [saying], Because I have asked him of Yahweh.

21 And the man Elkanah, and all his house, went up to offer to Yahweh the yearly sacrifice, and his vow.

22 But Hannah didn't go up; for she said to her husband, [I will not go up] until the lad is weaned; and then I will bring him, that he may appear before Yahweh, and remain there forever.

23 And Elkanah her husband said to her, Do what seems good to you; tarry until you have weaned him; only Yahweh establish his word. So the woman tarried and nursed her son, until she weaned him.

24 And when she had weaned him, she took him up with her, with a three-year-old bull, and one ephah of meal, and a bottle of wine, and brought him to the house of Yahweh in Shiloh: and the lad was young.

25 And they slew the bull, and brought the lad to Eli.

26 And she said, Oh, my lord, as your soul lives, my lord, I am the woman who stood here by you, praying to Yahweh.

27 I prayed for this lad; and Yahweh has given me my petition which I asked of him:

28 therefore I also have granted him to Yahweh; as long as he lives he is granted to Yahweh. And he worshiped Yahweh there.

How did a 100-year-old vision of global politics shape our future?

In 1919, Woodrow Wilson attempted to rally the U.S. behind the League of Nations. His failure suggested the way forward.

  • America in 1919 was as divided as America in 2019. When President Woodrow Wilson introduced his vision for the League of Nations following World War I, he was met with criticism.
  • With his reluctance to negotiate the functions of the League, Wilson failed to rally enough support.
  • Whatever Wilson and the League's flaws, he revealed a path to new possibilities in global cooperation.

One hundred years ago, at the end of a 10,000-mile speaking tour to promote the League of Nations, President Woodrow Wilson delivered an emotional appeal that left his audience weeping. Wilson's address in Pueblo, Colorado, would be the last speech of his voluble political career.

Wilson envisioned the tour as an extended graduate seminar. He would explain, in his professorial way, the logic and intricacies of the Paris Peace Treaty ending World War I. Frustrated by weeks of fruitless talks in Washington, where the Republican Senate majority was uniting to defeat the treaty, Wilson hoped his rhetorical marathon would create a new national consensus—and force reluctant senators to support Wilson's vision of the League of Nations.

"What of our pledges to the men that lie dead in France?" Wilson asked, quivering as he addressed the Pueblo throng. "We said that they went over there, not to prove the prowess of America or her readiness for another war, but to see to it that there never was such a war again."

Speaking of the mothers of the war dead, Wilson said: "They believe, and they rightly believe, that their sons saved the liberty of the world. They believe that wrapped up with the liberty of the world is the continuous protection of that liberty by the concerted powers of all civilized people."

Moving on from World War I

The grueling September tour took Wilson from the Midwest (Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, Minnesota), then to the Upper West (the Dakotas, Montana, Idaho), the Pacific (Washington, Oregon, California), and inland again (Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Colorado).

Wilson failed. Even as he aroused great crowds, including 50,000 people at a San Diego stadium, the treaty opposition got stronger along the way. Majority Leader Henry Cabot Lodge and his Republican allies raised serious questions about American sovereignty, Japan's takeover of a Chinese province, the prospect of a new arms race, and the failure to address the Irish question and human rights.

Americans supported the treaty, but not enthusiastically. Surveys of newspaper editors, party leaders, and civic organizations showed a willingness to try Wilson's experiment, as long as American interests were protected. Mostly, Americans wanted to get on with their lives.

"I can predict with absolute certainty that within another generation there will be another world war if the nations of the world do not concert the method by which to prevent it." - Woodrow Wilson

The end of the Western Tour

America in 1919 was as divided as America in 2019. In that fateful year, workers staged more than 2,000 strikes. Race riots and lynchings ripped apart cities and towns across the country. Nativism soared, with politicians attacking "hyphenated Americans" and vowing to restrict future immigration. Civil liberties were under attack. Hundreds of war opponents, including Socialist presidential candidate Eugene Debs and major labor leaders, were jailed under the Espionage Act for speaking against the war. Wilson's postmaster general shut down even mildly critical newspapers and magazines by denying them access to the mail. Some 2,000 German-Americans were held in internment camps while German newspapers, schools, churches, and fraternal organizations were shut down. Ordinary Americans struggled to make ends meet with flat wages and spiraling prices.

The Western Tour ended early when Wilson suffered a physical breakdown after giving his speech in Pueblo. That would be the last time Wilson ever spoke in public. Days after returning to the White House, he suffered a major stroke that left him incapacitated for the last year and a half of his presidency. As his wife Edith managed the flow of visitors and information in the White House, Wilson was invisible. But he told Democrats to vote against alterations that would have soothed the concerns of many critics—and could have won the two-thirds Senate majority needed to ratify the Paris Peace Treaty.

Ever since then, historians have wondered: Could the League of Nations have prevented the rise of the Nazis and the Second World War?

In promoting the League, Wilson claimed that the new global body would prevent "98 percent" of future wars. Had it existed back in 1914, Wilson argued, the League would have prevented the spiral to global war after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The League, he promised, would prevent an even more destructive second world war.

But even if the League had created a new vehicle for promoting peace, it lacked sophisticated incentive structures that are necessary to shape behavior on the global stage.

The League was seen as a unitary world body. Like national governments, the League would include both executive (the executive council) and legislative (the general assembly) actors. Like a judicial body, the League would settle disputes between member states. Wilson usually rejected the idea that the League would be a "supergovernment," but that's just how most people envisioned it.

In reality, the League of Nations could have been anything. In supporting the League, Senator J.C.W. Beckham of Kentucky noted that the U.S. Constitution offered just a guide to the leaders of the new American republic. Only when people of good faith acted—starting with the Bill of Rights, Hamilton's determination to pay the war debt, and landmark cases like Marbury v. Madison and McCullough v. Maryland—did that document gain real authority.

"I have loved but one flag and I can not share that devotion and give affection to the mongrel banner invented for a league." - Henry Cabot Lodge

Even the greatest skeptics—at the Paris Peace Conference and in the U.S. Senate—supported creating some kind of global authority to set basic rules for behavior and then enforce those rules. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge and Theodore Roosevelt, the treaty's biggest foes, had long argued for such an arrangement. Once begun, that version of the league could have evolved.

At the very least, the U.S. and other nations might have continued the work of Presidents McKinley, Roosevelt, and Taft and expanded the network of arbitration treaties. Those treaties obviously did not prevent the Great War, but they helped prevent war from breaking out in previous conflicts. The challenge was coordinating those treaties, making sure they did not create perverse commitments. The Great War had started, after all, when Austria-Hungary and Serbia called on their allies to back them in the conflict over the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Because of a series of mutual-protection pacts, Germany, Russia, France, and Great Britain; later, Italy, Japan, and the Ottoman Empire joined the conflagration.

Even a weakened League of Nations could have led to something like the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Beyond that core group of Western nations, it could have spun off a larger body to represent all of the world's nations, like the United Nations, to address issues like colonialism, the environment, trade, and natural resources. Perhaps another body could set international standards for trade and finance, like the World Trade Organization.

Wilson's fatal flaw was his unwillingness to see his vision as an experiment. Prideful and reluctant to negotiate, he considered the League a complete solution to global problems. But what if Wilson had been willing to accept a flawed League? What if he had been willing to bargain and compromise? What if he saw the League as an opportunity to experiment with different tools to prevent war and promote global cooperation?

Wilson's stubbornness not only doomed his vision for a League of Nations. It also short-circuited the public debate about the most effective ways to foster global peace and cooperation.

But Wilson held fast to his singular vision of the League, which was originally drawn up by Jan Smuts, the soon-to-be prime minister of South Africa. The Smuts plan fit with Wilson's Progressive mindset, in which technocrats manage conflict by asserting top-down control over public affairs. As the Smuts plan gained the assent of the Paris conferees, Wilson refused to consider alterations or alternatives.

However, there could have been a more nuanced approach to conflict resolution.

Lord Robert Cecil, for example, proposed an annual meeting of the heads of state of great powers. Every four years, the world's nations would meet to adopt plans for preventing war and maintaining peace. This alliance could evolve, test which practices worked and which ones didn't. Maybe, Cecil suggested, the League of Nations did not have to emerge whole, like Athena from the head of Zeus. Maybe the League could have tried different arrangements and incentives to see what worked best.

On the Western Tour, Wilson acknowledged that the League would evolve—usually to parry criticism about the League. Whatever the problem, Wilson promised that the League would rise to the occasion and address it. But in the thick of battle, Wilson stood firm by the covenant he brought home from Paris.

Overcoming the free rider problem

The challenge to any collaboration, of course, is the "free rider." In any group, members seek to reap collective benefits while allowing others to make the sacrifices and pay the bills. The bigger the group, the easier it is for one or more free riders to evade their responsibilities.

Whether or not the U.S. joined, the free-rider problem would undermine the League of Nations. The League was organized along the familiar, old-fashioned ideas about sovereignty and power. Stated simply, both proponents and opponents of the League believed that authority is exercised from the top down, with sanctions to punish whoever defies the rules. Like most institutions in that day, discipline and punishment were the primary means of enforcing standards.

Consider the primary mission of the League: To prevent war. Under Article X, potential belligerents must agree to a 90-day "cooling off" period to hash out their differences. If one nation should invade another, the League would impose an economic boycott and then, as a last resort, take military action against that nation. Under Article XI, member nations were told to bring issues of aggression to the League of Nations—a version of "if you see something, say something."

Over time, the League could have added other tools to its repertoire—not just sanctions (sticks) but also benefits (carrots)—to counter military aggression. With this broader repertoire, the League could develop more effective approaches to promoting public goals like peace, financial stability, free trade and oceans, fair labor standards, environmental protection, health, colonial development, and infrastructure.

Meeting certain basic standards for key priorities could have been the "price of admission" for engaging League of Nations members.

To combat the arms race, for example, the League could have taxed military spending that exceeded 1 or 1.5 percent of the nation's Gross Domestic Product. Excessive levels of military spending could be taxed and the funds returned for investment in public goods. (In 2014, NATO members agreed to spend 2 percent of GDP on defense spending by 2025. The U.S. now spends 3.6 percent, the United Kingdom 2.1 percent, France 1.8 percent, and Germany 1.2 percent.)

That "club" approach, later championed by Yale Nobel laureate William Nordhaus, could have provided a strategy for engaging nations on war and peace—and, decades later, a strategy for addressing the existential threat of global warming. Nations that joined the "club" of reducing carbon emissions would enjoy free trade and other benefits, while countries that did not would face tariffs and other barriers. Would-be free riders would have both positive and negative incentives to contribute to a solution.

If the League had developed a critical mass—with such incentives that even rogue states would desire to enter into its orbit—it might have gained the capacity to entice and coordinate global action on important issues.

As it was, the League's champions and foes understood the power of sanctions like boycotts and military action—but not subtler enticements and incentives. Their vision, alas, lacked the insights of today's "behavioral economics," developed by Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman of Princeton, the late Herbert Simon, and others. Policy wonks in Wilson's day also did not understand the "evolution of cooperation" and complexity theory championed by the University of Michigan's Robert Axelrod.

The League's top-down, sanction-oriented approach doomed it, no matter who joined and who stayed out. The League began operations in 1920, without the U.S., and had some minor successes. It collapsed after the 1935 Abyssinian crisis, when the League failed to get Italy to arbitrate its conflict with Ethiopia (then known as Abyssinia). The next year, Italian dictator Benito Mussolini created the Italian East Africa by merging Eritrea, Somalia and Ethiopia. His alliance with Hitler was not far off.

Why did Wilson fail?

Wilson's Western Tour failed to rally enough support to force the Senate's hand. Early in the tour, North Carolina's Democratic senators, Furnifold Simmons and Lee Overman, announced they would not support the treaty without changes. Other senators followed suit. Throughout the tour, skeptics and supporters alike grew more dubious of Wilson's master plan, especially when the president dismissed criticism as ignorant or unpatriotic.

"The future is what President Wilson must look to for his vindication," Senator Henry Ashurst of Arizona said in the tour's early days. "It may that 25 years from now, we will be saying, 'Would to God we could have one moment of Woodrow Wilson.' … But that is not true now and it will not be true by 1920, I'm afraid."

The League failed, mostly because of Wilson's inability to see that a more flexible approach could win supporters and also expand the League's vision and authority. But whatever his and the League's flaws, Woodrow Wilson pointed the way to new possibilities of global cooperation on matters of life and death.

How meditation can change your life and mind

Reaching beyond the stereotypes of meditation and embracing the science of mindfulness.

  • There are a lot of misconceptions when it comes to what mindfulness is and what meditation can do for those who practice it. In this video, professors, neuroscientists, psychologists, composers, authors, and a former Buddhist monk share their experiences, explain the science behind meditation, and discuss the benefits of learning to be in the moment.
  • "Mindfulness allows us to shift our relationship to our experience," explains psychologist Daniel Goleman. The science shows that long-term meditators have higher levels of gamma waves in their brains even when they are not meditating. The effect of this altered response is yet unknown, though it shows that there are lasting cognitive effects.
  • "I think we're looking at meditation as the next big public health revolution," says ABC News anchor Dan Harris. "Meditation is going to join the pantheon of no-brainers like exercise, brushing your teeth and taking the meds that your doctor prescribes to you." Closing out the video is a guided meditation experience led by author Damien Echols that can be practiced anywhere and repeated as many times as you'd like.
