City ordinance aims to curb abortion protesters

West Virginia News

Jun 4, 2019

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — West Virginia’s capital city has passed an ordinance aimed at curbing protests at abortion clinics.
News outlets report the Charleston City Council voted 21-5 on Monday to approve restrictions on approaching people as they enter health care facilities. The law forbids people from blocking an entrance or exit and says protesters can’t come within 8 feet of someone who is within 100 feet of a front entrance to advocate a message or provide pamphlets without the person’s consent.
The law was drafted after police received reports of protesters yelling at people entering the Women’s Health Center of West Virginia and blocking entries.
Anti-abortion protesters threatened legal action, saying the ordinance impeded their Constitutional right to free speech.
The American Civil Liberties Union raised concerns in a statement about the ordinance being too broad.

Sotomayor: ‘Surprisingly Enough To You, I’m Not A Democrat’

After a few niceties, Stephen Colbert entered attack mode, saying he’s “no fan of liberal, judicial activism.” In reference to her new book, he wanted to know why she thought we need to know this much about Supreme Court justices. “It used to be just nine, faceless white guys up there and America ran great.”

Sotomayor responded that what she wanted to convey with her memoir is that “we’re not nine, faceless people. We’re nine human beings.”

Noting her history of “self-reliance,” Colbert asked Sotomayor why she’s not a conservative. “How do you know I’m not?” she shot back. “Surprisingly enough to you, I’m not a Democrat. I’m an independent.”

Asked “what’s the most conservative belief you have?” Sotomayor answered, “I believe in the Constitution.” To which Colbert responded, “Then I believe you’re not a Democrat.”

Lesson: Introduction to Political Beliefs

**Objective:** Understand the different political beliefs and their implications on society.

**Introduction:** In this lesson, we will learn about different political beliefs and how they shape our understanding of the world around us. We will explore the concept of ideology, its impact on policy making, and how it affects the lives of individuals.

**Section 1: What is Ideology?**
Ideology refers to a set of beliefs or ideas that shape an individual's understanding of the world. These beliefs can be based on values, assumptions, and ideals that guide our actions and decisions.

**Section 2: Types of Ideologies**
There are several types of ideologies, including but not limited to:

1. Conservatism - a political philosophy that emphasizes tradition, stability, and gradual change.
2. Liberalism - a political philosophy that emphasizes individual rights, equality, and justice.
3. Socialism - a political philosophy that emphasizes the equal distribution of wealth, power, and resources.
4. Communism - a political philosophy that emphasizes the abolition of private property and the establishment of a classless society.

**Section 3: Impact of Ideology on Society**
Ideology plays a significant role in shaping public policy and the lives of individuals. For example, conservative policies may focus on reducing taxes and government spending, while liberal policies may focus on increasing social welfare programs and protecting individual rights.

**Section 4: Examples of Ideology in Action**
Let's consider two examples to illustrate the impact of ideology on society.

1. Abortion - Conservatives tend to oppose abortion, arguing that it is immoral and that the unborn child has a right to life. Liberals tend to support a woman's right to choose, arguing that it is essential for individual autonomy and reproductive freedom.
2. Healthcare - Conservatives tend to support a free market approach to healthcare, arguing that competition and choice will lead to better outcomes. Liberals tend to support a single-payer system, arguing that universal access to healthcare is a fundamental right.

**Section 5: Conclusion**
In conclusion, ideology plays a crucial role in shaping our understanding of the world and guiding our actions and decisions. By examining different types of ideologies and their impact on society, we can better understand the complexities of politics and public policy.

**Glossary:**
- Ideology: a set of beliefs or ideas that shape an individual's understanding of the world.
- Conservatism: a political philosophy that emphasizes tradition, stability, and gradual change.
- Liberalism: a political philosophy that emphasizes individual rights, equality, and justice.
- Socialism: a political philosophy that emphasizes the equal distribution of wealth, power, and resources.
- Communism: a political philosophy that emphasizes the abolition of private property and the establishment of a classless society.

The executive added that the company would release people from existing nondisclosure agreements related to those matters on a case-by-case basis.

The use of nondisclosure agreements for workers who make complaints of sexual harassment or discrimination has become a point of contention in the wake of the #MeToo movement, and The New Yorker has been at the forefront of the discussion. The magazine won a Pulitzer Prize in 2018 for Ronan Farrow’s investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct by the film producer Harvey Weinstein, which involved the use of nondisclosure agreements to silence his accusers. (The Times reporters Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey were also awarded the Pulitzer that year for their investigation into Mr. Weinstein.)

Mr. Weinstein is currently on trial, accused of rape, in Manhattan.

During the Democratic presidential primary debate in Las Vegas on Wednesday, Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized Michael R. Bloomberg for the use of nondisclosure agreements at his company, Bloomberg L.P. He had refused to release some female former employees from agreements they signed after accusing him of harassment and discrimination. (Mr. Bloomberg announced on Friday that he would release three women from nondisclosure agreements if they contacted the company.)

Condé Nast’s decision to limit the use of nondisclosure agreements was reported earlier by The Daily Beast.

The union that represents employees at The New Yorker and the Condé Nast publications Pitchfork and Ars Technica had proposed that the company drop nondisclosure agreements at the bargaining table for The New Yorker in November, said Susan DeCarava, the president of the union, the NewsGuild of New York.

Lesson: Nondisclosure Agreements

Introduction:
Nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) are legal contracts between two or more parties that prevent them from disclosing information covered by the agreement. In recent years, NDAs have become a topic of controversy, particularly in cases of sexual harassment and discrimination in the workplace. This lesson will explore the use of NDAs in such cases, their pros and cons, and their impact on society.

Section 1: Understanding Nondisclosure Agreements

Topic 1: What are Nondisclosure Agreements?
NDAs are legal contracts that prevent parties from disclosing confidential information covered by the agreement. They are commonly used in business settings to protect trade secrets, proprietary information, and other sensitive data.

Topic 2: Types of Nondisclosure Agreements
There are two types of NDAs: unilateral and bilateral. A unilateral NDA is when one party promises not to disclose the other party's confidential information. A bilateral NDA is when both parties promise not to disclose each other's confidential information.

Topic 3: Purpose of Nondisclosure Agreements
The purpose of NDAs is to protect confidential information from being disclosed to unauthorized individuals or entities. They help businesses maintain a competitive advantage, protect trade secrets, and maintain customer trust.

Section 2: Pros and Cons of Nondisclosure Agreements

Topic 1: Pros of Nondisclosure Agreements
- Protects confidential information from being disclosed to unauthorized individuals or entities.
- Helps businesses maintain a competitive advantage.
- Protects trade secrets and proprietary information.
- Maintains customer trust.

Topic 2: Cons of Nondisclosure Agreements
- Can be used to silence victims of sexual harassment or discrimination.
- Can prevent whistleblowers from reporting wrongdoing.
- Can limit freedom of speech and press.
- Can be abused by powerful individuals or companies to suppress negative information.

Section 3: Nondisclosure Agreements and Sexual Harassment/Discrimination

Topic 1: Use of NDAs in Cases of Sexual Harassment/Discrimination
NDAs have been used by companies to silence victims of sexual harassment or discrimination. This practice has come under scrutiny in recent years, with many arguing that it prevents victims from speaking out and holding perpetrators accountable.

Topic 2: Pros and Cons of Using NDAs in Cases of Sexual Harassment/Discrimination
Pros:
- Protects the privacy of the victim.
- Prevents the perpetrator from being publicly shamed before guilt is proven.
- Protects the company from negative publicity.

Cons:
- Silences victims and prevents them from seeking justice.
- Perpetuates a culture of silence and complicity.
- Allows perpetrators to continue harming others.

Section 4: Impact on Society

Topic 1: Public Opinion
Public opinion on NDAs has shifted in recent years, with many viewing them as a tool to silence victims of sexual harassment and discrimination. There has been a call for greater transparency and accountability in cases of workplace misconduct.

Topic 2: Legislation
Some states have passed laws restricting the use of NDAs in cases of sexual harassment and discrimination. These laws aim to ensure that victims can speak out without fear of retaliation or further harm.

Conclusion:
NDAs have their pros and cons, and their use in cases of sexual harassment and discrimination has become a contentious issue. It is essential to strike a balance between protecting confidential information and ensuring that victims can seek justice and hold perpetrators accountable. By understanding the purpose and impact of NDAs, we can make informed decisions about their use and advocate for change where necessary.

Glossary:
- Nondisclosure Agreement (NDA): A legal contract that prevents parties from disclosing confidential information covered by the agreement.
- Trade Secret: Confidential information that derives economic value from not being generally known or readily ascertainable.
- Proprietary Information: Confidential information that is unique to a business and provides it with a competitive advantage.

Q:

NavigationBar missing on View

I have a storyboard with a lot of Views and TableViews, all embedded in Navigation controllers, and all embedded in the same root TabBarController. Then I have button in a cell where I want to present a view as page sheet. That ViewController is embedded in a separate NavigationController and not part of the TabBarController.
My problem is then when presenting that ViewController, the navigationBar is missing.
So, I'm in tab1, navigation controller, 2 levels down:
        if let stockVC = storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Stock") as? StockTableViewController {
        stockVC.stockToDisplay = commonData.stock.filter { $0.productID.contains(product) }
        // No NavigationBar with this one
        navigationController?.present(stockVC, animated: true)
        // No NavigationBar with this one
        self.present(stockVC, animated: true)
    }

I know the navigationBar works, because if I set the ViewController as initial in the storyboard, it shows.
What am I doing wrong here?

A:

When you present a view controller, it is not part of the current navigation stack. You need to create a new navigation controller with your stockVC contained in it, and present the new navigation controller:
if let stockVC = storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Stock") as? StockTableViewController {
    stockVC.stockToDisplay = commonData.stock.filter { $0.productID.contains(product) }
    let stockNavigationController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: stockVC)
    self.present(stockNavigationController, animated: true)
}

Lesson: Introduction to Navigation Controllers

## Section 1: What are Navigation Controllers?
Navigation controllers are essential components in iOS app development. They are used to manage the navigation flow between different views or screen. A navigation controller provides a standard way to move between views, making it easier for developers to create complex apps with multiple screens. Navigation controllers are typically used in conjunction with UINavigationController, which is a custom class that provides a navigation bar and navigation stack.

## Section 2: How do Navigation Controllers work?
Navigation controllers work by managing the navigation stack. The navigation stack is a list of view controllers that the user can move back and forth between. When the user taps a button or link that takes them to a new view, the navigation controller adds that view to the top of the stack. The user can then tap the back button to return to the previous view.

## Section 3: Why do we need Navigation Controllers?
Navigation controllers are essential for creating apps with multiple screens. They provide a standard way to navigate between views, making it easier for developers to create complex apps. Navigation controllers also allow developers to add features such as navigation bars, back buttons, and other navigation-related functionality.

## Section 4: Examples of Navigation Controllers
Some examples of navigation controllers include UINavigationController, UITabBarController, and UISplitViewController. These classes provide different ways to navigate between views, depending on the needs of the app. For example, a UINavigationController is used to manage a single view controller, while a UITabBarController is used to manage multiple view controllers in a tab bar interface.

## Section 5: Conclusion
Navigation controllers are an essential component of iOS app development. They provide a standard way to navigate between views, making it easier for developers to create complex apps. By understanding how navigation controllers work and why they are necessary, developers can create apps that are intuitive and easy to use.

Q:

Monitoring Progress/Debugging Parallel R Scripts

Among the choices I have for quickly parallelizing simple code (snowfall, foreach, and so on), what are my options for showing the progress of all the slave processes?  Do any of the offerings excel in this regard?
I've seen that snowfall 1.70 has sfCat(), but it doesn't seem to cat output to the master R session.

A:

That's where it can turn into black art...   I notice that you did not list MPI or PVM -- those old workhorses of parallel computing do have monitors.  You may find solutions by going outside of R and relying on job schedulers (slurm, torque, ...)
If you can't do that (and hey, there are reasons why we like the simplicity of snow, foreach, ...) then maybe you can alter your jobs to log a 'heartbeat' or progress message every N steps.  You can log to text files (if you have a NFS or SMB/CIFS share), log to a database, or heck, send a tweet with R. It will most likely be specific to your app, and yes, it will have some cost.

Lesson: Monitoring Progress/Debugging Parallel R Scripts

Introduction:
Parallel computing is an essential tool for data scientists and researchers who need to process large datasets or perform complex calculations quickly. R is a popular programming language for data analysis and visualization, and it offers several packages for parallel computing, including snowfall, foreach, and others. Monitoring the progress of parallel scripts and debugging errors can be challenging, especially when working with multiple processes running simultaneously. In this lesson, we will explore the options for monitoring progress and debugging parallel R scripts and compare the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches.

Section 1: Monitoring Progress

Monitoring the progress of parallel scripts is crucial for understanding how each process is performing and identifying potential bottlenecks or issues. There are several ways to monitor progress in R:

1. Logging: Many parallel packages allow you to log information about the progress of each process. For example, snowfall has an sfCat() function that can be used to print messages to the console or a file. You can use this function to track the progress of each process and identify any issues that arise.

2. Job Schedulers: If you are running your parallel scripts on a cluster or server with a job scheduler (such as Slurm or Torque), you can use the scheduler's built-in monitoring tools to track the progress of your scripts. These tools typically provide information about the status of each job, how much time has been spent, and how much time remains.

3. Visualization: Some packages, such as doParallel, include built-in visualization tools that allow you to see the progress of each process as it runs. These tools can be helpful for identifying potential bottlenecks or issues and adjusting your code accordingly.

Section 2: Debugging Errors

Debugging errors in parallel scripts can be challenging, especially when multiple processes are running simultaneously. However, there are several strategies you can use to identify and fix errors:

1. Checkpointing: Many parallel packages allow you to set checkpoints, which are points in the code where the script stops and waits for user input. You can use checkpoints to pause the script and investigate any errors that arise.

2. Logging: As mentioned earlier, logging is an essential tool for monitoring progress. You can also use logging to identify errors and debug your code. For example, if you encounter an error while running a parallel script, you can use the sfCat() function to print information about the error to a file or the console.

3. Profiling: Profiling tools can help you identify performance issues in your code, such as memory leaks or slow loops. By profiling your code, you can identify potential bottlenecks and optimize your code for better performance.

Section 3: Conclusion

In this lesson, we explored the options for monitoring progress and debugging errors in parallel R scripts. We discussed the strengths and weaknesses of different approaches and provided practical examples of how to use these techniques to improve the performance and reliability of your code. By monitoring progress and debugging errors, you can ensure that your scripts run efficiently and accurately, even when dealing with large datasets or complex calculations.

Glossary:
- Parallel computing: A form of computation in which several tasks are performed simultaneously by multiple processors.
- Job scheduler: A software application that manages the allocation and execution of computing resources, such as CPU time, memory, and storage, to various users and applications.
- Checkpointing: A technique for pausing a program at specified points and resuming execution from that point after further processing has occurred.
- Profiling: The process of analyzing the performance characteristics of a program, such as its speed, memory usage, and CPU usage.

1. Technical Field
The present invention relates to an illumination device and a projector.
2. Related Art
A projector has been hitherto known as one of display devices (for example, see JP-A-2009-216843). For example, the projector modulates light from an illumination device using a light modulation device to form an image and projects the image onto a screen using a projection lens or the like.
As a light source of the illumination device, various light sources are used, and a coherent light source which emits light (coherent light) having coherence may be used. The coherent light source includes a solid-state light source using a laser diode (LD) or a super luminescence diode (SLD), a short-arc lamp light source, and the like. For example, in a projector using a laser light source, it is possible to sufficiently expand a color reproduction range since the wavelength band of the laser light source is narrow, and to achieve reduction in size or to reduce the number of constituent components.
On the other hand, if display is performed by a projector using a coherent light source, an observer who observes an image may recognize so-called speckle. Speckle is a pattern in which bright points and dark points are distributed in a striped pattern or a spotted pattern due to interference of light, gives a sense of glare to the observer, and gives a sense of discomfort during image viewing. For this reason, a technique which makes speckle be less recognizable (hereinafter, “reduces” speckle) is expected to be devised.
As one of techniques for reducing speckle, JP-A-2009-216843 suggests a technique which rotates a spot formed on a pupil plane of a projection lens around an optical axis on the pupil plane. According to the technique of JP-A-2009-216843, the angular distribution of light rays entering respective points on a screen temporally changes, and the pattern of speckle temporally changes. As a result, the observer observes speckle in a superimposed (integrated) manner, and speckle is reduced.
In the above-described technique, in the course of effectively reducing speckle, there is room for improvement. For example, according to a method which moves a pupil image on a pupil plane, since there is no change in the pattern of the pupil image itself, it is not possible to sufficiently reduce speckle. Since it is necessary to increase the effective pupil (effective diameter) of the projection lens, an increase in the size of the projection lens and an increase in cost occur.

text: Big night. Posted on: Mon, 12/27/2010 - 7:29pm. I don't know about 2 seasons,. I don't know about 2 seasons, but IMO they have a very bright future ahead of them. They should probably draft a young center to develop and it will be interesting to see if Rubio comes over.... They have good money management, too Beasley is the highest payed player at just 4.9 million a year.. For the T-wolves. Beasly had a huge game vs Chris Paul and the Hornets. He had 30pts 9rbs and 7 helpers. And at last the T-wolves finished off a game! All 5 starters had at least 10 pts. And they played pretty good team D. And they beat a team above .500!. So i have to ask. Can Beasley turn into this type of player every game? will the Wolves win more then 30 games? And in 2 seasons could they be a low playoff seed? I know it is alot to hope for. But hey would i be a good fan if i didn't dream?

Lesson: Analyzing and Evaluating Basketball Performance

Introduction:
Basketball is a popular sport that requires skill, strategy, and teamwork to succeed. In this lesson, we will learn how to analyze and evaluate basketball performance by looking at individual and team statistics, game outcomes, and overall team strategy.

Section 1: Individual Statistics

Topic 1: Points per Game (PPG)

Definition: Points per game is a statistic that measures the average number of points a player scores in a game.

Example: In a game, Player A scored 20 points. To calculate their PPG, we divide 20 by the number of minutes they played in the game.

Topic 2: Rebounds per Game (RPG)

Definition: Rebounds per game is a statistic that measures the average number of rebounds a player gets in a game.

Example: In a game, Player B grabbed 10 rebounds. To calculate their RPG, we divide 10 by the number of minutes they played in the game.

Topic 3: Assists per Game (APG)

Definition: Assists per game is a statistic that measures the average number of assists a player gets in a game.

Example: In a game, Player C had 7 assists. To calculate their APG, we divide 7 by the number of minutes they played in the game.

Section 2: Team Statistics

Topic 1: Field Goal Percentage (FG%)

Definition: Field goal percentage is a statistic that measures the percentage of shots made by a team from the field.

Example: In a game, Team X shot 40% from the field. To calculate their FG%, we divide the number of successful field goals by the total number of field goal attempts.

Topic 2: Three-Point Field Goal Percentage (3PT%)

Definition: Three-point field goal percentage is a statistic that measures the percentage of shots made by a team from beyond the three-point line.

Example: In a game, Team Y shot 35% from beyond the three-point line. To calculate their 3PT%, we divide the number of successful three-point field goals by the total number of three-point field goal attempts.

Topic 3: Free Throw Percentage (FT%)

Definition: Free throw percentage is a statistic that measures the percentage of free throws made by a team.

Example: In a game, Team Z shot 75% from the free throw line. To calculate their FT%, we divide the number of successful free throws by the total number of free throw attempts.

Section 3: Game Outcomes and Overall Strategy

Topic 1: Win-Loss Record

Definition: The win-loss record is a statistic that measures the number of games a team has won compared to the number of games they have lost.

Example: In the regular season, Team A had a record of 45-37, meaning they won 45 games and lost 37 games.

Topic 2: Playoff Appearances

Definition: Playoff appearances refer to the number of times a team has made it to the playoffs in a given season.

Example: In the past 10 years, Team B has made it to the playoffs 8 times.

Topic 3: Championship Runs

Definition: Championship runs refer to the number of times a team has made it to the championship game or series in a given season.

Example: In the past 5 years, Team C has made it to the championship game 3 times, winning the title twice.

Conclusion: By analyzing and evaluating individual and team statistics, as well as overall game outcomes and strategy, we can gain a deeper understanding of basketball performance. This knowledge can help us appreciate the sport more and even predict future outcomes based on past performances.

Lesson Title: The Formation of Volcanic Islands

Introduction:
Volcanic islands are formed by the eruption of molten rock called magma from the Earth's mantle to the surface. In this lesson, we will learn about the process of island formation, the types of volcanoes, and the different stages involved in the formation of volcanic islands.

Section 1: The Process of Island Formation

The process of island formation begins with the upwelling of hot material from the Earth's mantle to the asthenosphere. This hot material rises due to convection currents in the mantle, creating a plume or hotspot. As the plume reaches the Earth's crust, it causes the overlying tectonic plate to subside, allowing the magma to rise and form volcanic islands.

Questions:
- What is the first stage in the formation of volcanic islands?
- What is a plume, and what does it do?
- How does the upwelling of hot material from the Earth's mantle occur?

Answer:
- The first stage in the formation of volcanic islands is the upwelling of hot material from the Earth's mantle to the asthenosphere.
- A plume is a hot, buoyant area of mantle material that rises due to convection currents in the mantle. It creates a hotspot when it reaches the Earth's crust.
- The upwelling of hot material from the Earth's mantle occurs due to convection currents in the mantle.

Section 2: Types of Volcanoes

There are two main types of volcanoes: shield volcanoes and stratovolcanoes. Shield volcanoes are formed by lava flows that create a gently sloping cone shape, while stratovolcanoes are formed by alternating layers of ash, lava, and rock debris that create steep-sided cones.

Questions:
- What are the two main types of volcanoes?
- How are shield volcanoes formed?
- How are stratovolcanoes formed?

Answer:
- The two main types of volcanoes are shield volcanoes and stratovolcanoes.
- Shield volcanoes are formed by lava flows that create a gently sloping cone shape.
- Stratovolcanoes are formed by alternating layers of ash, lava, and rock debris that create steep-sided cones.

Section 3: Stages of Island Formation

The formation of volcanic islands goes through several stages, including the following:

1. Volcanic Eruption: The first stage in island formation is the eruption of magma from the Earth's mantle to the surface.

2. Subsidence: As the volcano erupts, the overlying tectonic plate subsides, allowing the magma to rise and form the volcanic island.

3. Accretion: Over time, the accumulation of volcanic material builds up the island, and it may eventually become a separate entity from the tectonic plate.

4. Weathering and Erosion: The volcanic island continues to change over time as weathering and erosion processes break down the rock and soil.

Questions:
- What are the four stages of island formation?
- What happens during the subsidence stage?
- What is the final stage of island formation?

Answer:
- The four stages of island formation are volcanic eruption, subsidence, accretion, and weathering and erosion.
- During the subsidence stage, the overlying tectonic plate subsides, allowing the magma to rise and form the volcanic island.
- The final stage of island formation is weathering and erosion, where the volcanic island continues to change over time as these processes break down the rock and soil.

Conclusion:
Understanding the process of island formation and the types of volcanoes involved can help us appreciate the beauty and power of these natural phenomena. By studying the stages of island formation, we can gain insights into the Earth's geological processes and the forces that shape our planet.

Glossary:
- Plume: A hot, buoyant area of mantle material that rises due to convection currents in the mantle.
- Hotspot: A plume that creates a volcanic hotspot when it reaches the Earth's crust.
- Tectonic plate: A large, rigid section of the Earth's lithosphere that moves slowly over the asthenosphere.
- Magma: Molten rock that is generated in the Earth's mantle and rises to the surface.
- Volcanic eruption: The release of magma and other volcanic materials onto the Earth's surface.
- Subsidence: The sinking or downward movement of the Earth's crust.
- Accretion: The process of building up or accumulating volcanic material to form an island.
- Weathering: The breaking down of rocks and soils by physical, chemical, or biological processes.
- Erosion: The removal of the weathered material from the Earth's surface by water, wind, or ice.

I loved the stage version, and the preview showed a brilliant filmic opening – the cleansing of the Paris Opera House by the wind, thrusting us into the past and the story of the opera ghost.. I was all kinds of disappointed when I actually saw the film, and realized that the opening scene was the last cinematic gem we would get.. So, not being an idiot, I wasn’t all kinds of excited to hear that a musical dearer to my heart, Les Miserables, was being turned into a film.. But then again, my memory isn’t all that great, and I am an idiot (previous sentence not withstanding), so I forgot past disappointments when viewing this trailer, and am all kinds of excited again.. Perfect trailer – focus on one song to give us a picture of what the filmmakers intend.. All kinds of excited.

- Each row is divided into two columns: one for the direction of the bus (e.g., "To" or "From"), and one for the time of day (e.g., "Morning" or "Afternoon").
- The time is usually given in 24-hour format (e.g., 07:30 AM).
- Some timetables may also include information about the frequency of service (e.g., every 30 minutes) or special notes about the route.

Topic 2: Understanding the Layout
- Timetables can be confusing, especially if you are not familiar with them.
- To make sense of it all, start by finding the column that corresponds to the day you want to travel (e.g., "Monday") and the row that corresponds to the stop you need to go to (e.g., "Main Street").
- Look for the time that matches your intended departure time (e.g., 07:30 AM) and find the corresponding bus number.
- Once you have identified the bus number and time, you can use this information to plan your journey.

Section 2: Practical Examples

Example 1: Finding the Next Departure Time
- Let's say you want to take the bus from Main Street to Uppinakote at 08:00 AM.

Lesson: Introduction to Music

### Section 1: Theory
In this lesson, we will learn about music and its different elements. Music is an art form that combines sounds and silences to create harmony, melody, and rhythm. It can be played on various instruments such as guitar, piano, violin, and drums.

**Theoretical Concept:**
Music is composed of notes, which are represented by symbols called staff notation. These symbols represent the pitch and duration of a sound. The staff is divided into measures, which contain beats that indicate the tempo of the piece.

**Practical Example:**
Let's take a look at the following excerpt from Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata:

```
      G    A     G     A     G     A     G     A     G
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |
    x  x   x   x   |
    x  x   x   x   |
    x  x   x   x   |
```

This is the first measure of the piece, and it is written in 4/4 time signature. The notes are represented by the letters G, A, and G, which correspond to the pitches of the notes played. The duration of each note is indicated by the number of beats it takes to play it.

### Section 2: Practice
Now that we understand the basic theory behind music, let's try to identify the different elements in the following excerpt from Mozart's Eine kleine Nachtmusik:

```
   G   A   G   A   G   A   G   A   G
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |
    x  x   x   x   |
    x  x   x   x   |
    x  x   x   x   |
```

Listen carefully to the melody and identify the following:

1. What is the time signature of this piece?
2. How many beats are in each measure?
3. What are the notes being played?
4. What is the tempo of the piece?
5. Can you identify any patterns or motifs in the melody?

### Section 3: Application
Now that we have learned the basics of music theory and practiced identifying different elements in a piece, let's apply our knowledge to a real-world scenario. Imagine you are a composer writing a piece for a movie soundtrack. You want to create a tense and dramatic atmosphere, but you also want to convey a sense of hope and determination. How would you use music to achieve this?

**Application:**
To create a tense and dramatic atmosphere, you could use dissonant chords and fast tempos. To convey a sense of hope and determination, you could use major chords and slower tempos. You could also use dynamics to build up to a climax and then slowly fade away to a soft ending.

**Glossary:**
- Staff notation: symbols that represent the pitch and duration of a sound
- Measure: a unit of time in music, usually consisting of beats
- Tempo: the speed at which a piece of music is played
- Note: a sound with a specific pitch and duration
- Motif: a short musical idea that is repeated throughout a piece

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the basic elements of music, practiced identifying different elements in a piece, and applied our knowledge to a real-world scenario. By understanding the principles of music, we can appreciate and create beautiful compositions that move us emotionally.

Contextualizing salutogenesis and Antonovsky in public health development.
More than 20 years have passed since the American-Israeli medical sociologist Aaron Antonovsky introduced his salutogenic theory 'sense of coherence' as a global orientation to view the world, claiming that the way people view their life has a positive influence on their health. Sense of coherence explains why people in stressful situations stay well and even are able to improve their health. The origin of salutogenesis derives from the interviews of Israeli women with experiences from the concentration camps of the Second World War who in spite of this stayed healthy. Sixty years after the Holocaust this paper aim to shed light on the salutogenic theory in the context of public health and health promotion. In addition, other approaches with salutogenic elements for the explanation of health are considered. A potential direction for public health of the early 21st century is proposed. The historical paradox is to honour the victims of the Holocaust and see the birth of post-modern public health and the salutogenic framework through the experience of its survivors in the ashes of Modernity.

textbook:
Lesson Title: Introduction to Salutogenesis and Antonovsky in Public Health Development

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about the salutogenic theory of Antonovsky and its application in public health development. We will explore the concept of sense of coherence and how it can contribute to better health outcomes. We will also discuss other approaches with salutogenic elements for explaining health.

Section 1: Understanding Salutogenesis and Antonovsky

Topic 1: What is Salutogenesis?
- Salutogenesis is a theory that focuses on understanding how people maintain their health in the face of stressors.
- It was developed by Aaron Antonovsky, an American-Israeli medical sociologist.
- The theory suggests that people's perception of their environment and their ability to make sense of it can influence their health.

Topic 2: What is Sense of Coherence?
- Sense of coherence is a central concept in salutogenesis.
- It refers to an individual's perception of the relationships among different life events and experiences.
- People with a strong sense of coherence are better equipped to handle stressors and maintain good health.

Section 2: Applying Salutogenesis in Public Health Development

Topic 1: How can Salutogenesis contribute to Public Health Development?
- Salutogenesis can help public health professionals understand how people maintain their health in difficult circumstances.
- By focusing on the factors that contribute to good health, public health initiatives can be designed to promote these factors.
- This can lead to more effective and sustainable public health interventions.

Topic 2: Examples of Salutogenic Interventions
- One example of a salutogenic intervention is the use of mindfulness meditation to reduce stress and improve mental health.
- Another example is the promotion of social support networks, which can help individuals better cope with stressors.
- These interventions can be particularly effective in populations facing significant health challenges, such as those living in poverty or with chronic illnesses.

Section 3: Other Approaches with Salutogenic Elements

Topic 1: The Biopsychosocial Model
- The biopsychosocial model suggests that health is influenced by biological, psychological, and social factors.
- This model emphasizes the importance of addressing all three of these factors in order to promote health.
- It is consistent with the salutogenic approach, which recognizes the interconnectedness of these factors.

Topic 2: The Ecological Model
- The ecological model suggests that health is influenced by factors at multiple levels of analysis, including individual, interpersonal, community, and societal.
- This model emphasizes the importance of addressing the social determinants of health, which are often overlooked in traditional public health approaches.
- It is consistent with the salutogenic approach, which recognizes the importance of addressing social and environmental factors that impact health.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the salutogenic approach of Antonovsky offers valuable insights into how individuals maintain their health in the face of stressors. By focusing on the factors that contribute to good health, public health initiatives can be designed to promote these factors. Other approaches with salutogenic elements, such as the biopsychosocial and ecological models, also provide useful frameworks for understanding and promoting health. By applying these approaches, we can work towards a more holistic and effective approach to public health development.

**Objective:** In this lesson, we will learn about the importance of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) and how it can be improved through the Global Fund.

**Section 1: Introduction**

Reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) is an essential part of overall health and well-being. It includes the health of women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postnatal period, as well as the health of newborns and young children. RMNCH is also closely linked to other aspects of health, such as family planning and sexually transmitted infections.

**Section 2: Importance of RMNCH**

RMNCH is crucial for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Improving RMNCH is one of the targets under SDG 3, which aims to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. Good RMNCH is also essential for achieving other SDGs, such as ending poverty (SDG 1), promoting economic growth and decent work for all (SDG 8), and achieving gender equality (SDG 5).

**Section 3: RMNCH and the Global Fund**

The Global Fund is an international organization that fights against AIDS, tuberculosis, and malaria. It provides financial assistance to countries that are affected by these diseases. The Global Fund also supports RMNCH programs, as they are often linked to these diseases. For example, people living with HIV may have a higher risk of complications during pregnancy and childbirth.

**Section 4: WHO Technical Guidance Note**

The World Health Organization (WHO) has developed a Technical Guidance Note on RMNCH to help countries improve their health outcomes. This note provides technical information and normative guidance on RMNCH interventions, including family planning, antenatal care, skilled attendance at birth, and newborn care.
