CONCLUSIONS

Fluoxetine in combination with CBT is more effective than fluoxetine alone or CBT alone for improving symptoms of depression in adolescents with major depressive disorder.

NOTES

Fluoxetine alone and placebo alone were given double blind, whereas CBT plus fluoxetine and CBT alone were given unblinded.

Commentary

The Treatment for Adolescents with Depression Study (TADS) is notable for its rigorous design and timely clinical findings. Although acutely suicidal adolescents were necessarily excluded from the study, self harm, suicide attempts, and suicidal ideation were carefully monitored as they should be in clinical and research settings alike. Furthermore, the controversial use of placebo in depressed adolescents, coupled with careful monitoring, did not contribute to problems with safety or attrition and in fact resulted in some symptomatic benefit. Moreover, including a placebo group increased hypothesised group differences, therefore reducing required sample size, and consequently, the (potential) number of non-responders.1

Consider the timely nature of these results. In 2003 the UK’s Drug Licensing Authority Committee on Safety of Medicines warned, “There is no, or insufficient, evidence from clinical trials that benefits outweigh the risks of side effects for sertraline (Lustral), citalopram (Cipramil), escitalopram (Cipralex) and fluvoxamine (Faverin). Fluoxetine, or Prozac, appears to have a positive balance of risks and benefits…”2 The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) subsequently conducted an extensive review of all recent paediatric antidepressant RCTs involving over 4000 children.3 4 There were no fatalities in these trials. Most striking, however, only three of 15 RCTs for MDD showed efficacy on the primary outcome.3 In fact, fluoxetine, which has a paediatric indication for depression, was the only antidepressant with more than one positive paediatric RCT supporting its use.5 6 Although suicidality (ideation or attempts) was uncommon in these trials, the risk:benefit ratio was disturbing. The FDA concluded that, although suicidality was rare, the risk was significantly higher in children receiving antidepressants relative to placebo.4 As a result, a black box warning regarding clinical worsening and suicide risk is now required on all antidepressants sold in the US,7 and the FDA has issued proposed guidance about using antidepressants in children and teenagers.

This study is further evidence of the efficacy of fluoxetine for adolescents with depression, particularly when used in combination with CBT. It provides an important empirical basis for clinical decision making and is exemplary for the design of paediatric psychopharmacology RCTs.

Lesson: The Use of Fluoxetine in Combination with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for Adolescents with Major Depressive Disorder

Introduction:
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common mental health disorder that affects adolescents. Fluoxetine is an antidepressant medication that is often used to treat MDD. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is a type of talk therapy that helps individuals change negative thought patterns and behaviors. This lesson will discuss the use of fluoxetine in combination with CBT for treating adolescents with MDD.

Section 1: Understanding Major Depressive Disorder in Adolescents

MDD is a serious medical condition that affects adolescents. It is characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and worthlessness. Adolescents with MDD may also experience physical symptoms such as fatigue, changes in appetite, and difficulty sleeping. MDD can interfere with daily activities such as school, relationships, and social interactions.

Section 2: The Use of Fluoxetine in Treating MDD

Fluoxetine is an antidepressant medication that is commonly used to treat MDD. It works by increasing the levels of serotonin, a neurotransmitter in the brain that helps regulate mood. Fluoxetine is available in various forms such as tablets, capsules, and liquid. It is usually taken once a day, either in the morning or evening.

Section 3: The Use of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in Treating MDD

CBT is a type of talk therapy that helps individuals identify and change negative thought patterns and behaviors. CBT for MDD focuses on identifying and challenging negative thoughts and beliefs that contribute to depression. It also helps individuals develop coping skills to manage symptoms and improve their overall functioning.

Section 4: The Use of Fluoxetine in Combination with CBT for Adolescents with MDD

The TADS study is a randomized controlled trial that compared the effectiveness of fluoxetine alone, CBT alone, and fluoxetine in combination with CBT for treating adolescents with MDD. The study found that fluoxetine in combination with CBT was more effective than fluoxetine alone or CBT alone for improving symptoms of depression in adolescents with MDD.

Section 5: Conclusion

In conclusion, the use of fluoxetine in combination with CBT is an effective treatment option for adolescents with MDD. It is essential to consult with a mental health professional before starting any treatment for depression. This lesson has provided an overview of MDD, the use of fluoxetine in treating MDD, and the benefits of combining fluoxetine with CBT for adolescents with MDD. By understanding the importance of early intervention and appropriate treatment, individuals can manage their symptoms and lead healthy, fulfilling lives.

Lesson: Understanding Political Lyrics

Introduction:
Political lyrics are an important aspect of music that often reflects the social, economic, and political climate of a society. In this lesson, we will explore the meaning behind some of the most popular political songs and analyze their impact on society.

Section 1: What are Political Lyrics?
Political lyrics are the words or lyrics in a song that expresses the writer's or performer's political views or opinions. These lyrics can be about specific political events, leaders, or issues, or they can be more general in nature, expressing a broader political philosophy.

Section 2: Analyzing Political Lyrics
To analyze political lyrics, we need to break them down into their individual components and examine them closely. This includes looking at the language used, the tone of the song, and the overall message being conveyed. We can also compare and contrast different versions of the same song to see how interpretations may vary.

Section 3: Examples of Political Lyrics
One example of political lyrics is Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind," which was written during the Civil Rights Movement in the United States. The song asks several rhetorical questions about the state of society, including "How many times can a man turn his head and deny the writing on the wall?" and "Yes, and how many times can a man turn his back on the burning of the wind?" These lyrics reflect the frustration and anger that many people were feeling towards the government and society at large during this time.

Another example is John Lennon's "Imagine," which envisions a world without borders, religion, or war. The lyrics encourage listeners to imagine a world where "nothing to kill or die for" and "no religion too" exist. While some may argue that the song promotes a utopian view of the world, others see it as a call to action for peace and unity.

Section 4: The Impact of Political Lyrics
Political lyrics can have a powerful impact on society, as they often reflect the collective consciousness of a group of people. They can inspire change, start conversations, and bring awareness to important issues. For example, the song "We Shall Overcome" became an anthem for the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, and its lyrics "We shall overcome, we shall overcome, we shall overcome someday" became a rallying cry for those fighting for equality and justice.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, political lyrics are an important part of music that can reflect the social, economic, and political climate of a society. By analyzing these lyrics, we can gain a deeper understanding of the issues facing our world today and work towards creating positive change.

The Challenges Philly Faces in the Year Ahead

The city may be driving growth in a slow-growth region, but in order for the entire city to benefit, there are some issues that need tending to.

Sign up for our weekly home and property newsletter, featuring homes for sale, neighborhood happenings, and more.

Center City and its surrounding neighborhoods may have turned a corner, and the job and population growth in those areas may have propelled Philadephia into the ranks of the fastest-growing counties in our metropolitan region. But that doesn’t mean that the city as a whole is out of the woods yet. And if the city isn’t out of the woods, neither is the region.

The region as a whole remains a slow-growth one. That has some advantages when the economy sours, but when things are going relatively well as they are now, the downsides come to the fore. Among other things, those downsides have produced this paradox: One of the most affordable big-city housing markets in the country has an affordable-housing problem.

The clouds in the silver lining

At the Central Philadelphia Development Corporation’s quarterly meeting at the Union League Dec. 18, Executive Director Paul Levy outlined what some of those downsides are in the city:

Not enough wealth to adequately fund public education. The amount of assessed property value per pupil in the city is $275,000, according to Levy. This may not sound all that bad until you consider that this figure is well below the statewide per-pupil average of $487,000. Pittsburgh’s real property has an assessed value of $738,000 per pupil, and in Lower Merion Township just over the city line, the figure is $1.5 million. Put simply, this means that the city really can’t afford to fund public schools to the point where they can offer the same quality of education the best suburban districts offer.

Net intraregional out-migration. And, of course, everyone knows that the quality of the schools is one of the major factors driving young city families to relocate to the suburbs. But it may not be the principal issue driving that decision. Since 2000, the population has fallen in 38 percent of the city’s 47 zip codes, and 62,000 more people within the region have moved out of the city than into it during that same period. Moreover, 81 percent of the households that have left the city since 2010 have no children, and many of the departed have household income of $125,000 a year or more.

A mismatch between residents and jobs. Jobs may be chasing talent to the places where it prefers to live, but for many in this region, talent still travels to where the jobs are, and many of those are in the suburbs. According to Levy, more than 40 percent of those living in outlying city neighborhoods reverse-commute to jobs in the suburbs. While some of these people are newcomers who want to live in a dynamic city neighborhood, many more are current residents who might prefer to work in the city if they could find suitable employment there.

Growing jobs should be Job 1

The easiest cure for all these ills, Levy said, is simply for the city to grow faster. The city’s famously high poverty rate has actually fallen from its 2011 peak of 28 percent, and if the city had added jobs merely at the pace everywhere else in the country added them over the last three years (1.7 percent), it would have fallen further. But the city’s growth rate of 1.4 percent not only trails the national average, it’s well behind the 2.3 percent average for the nation’s 26 largest cities. Among that group, Philadelphia’s growth rate is lower than every city but Chicago and Memphis.

Had the city added jobs at the same pace as the 26 largest cities overall, it would have added not 68,000 jobs but 115,000. That’s a difference of 47,000 jobs, or almost as many as Amazon’s HQ2 promised to produce.

The principal answer to that, the participants in the panel discussion that followed generally agreed, is to stimulate the growth of new local businesses across the city. Partnerships between large and small businesses, businesses and government, and programs like those sponsored by West Philadelphia’s Enterprise Center all have a role to play in moving this ball forward.

“The North Star we should all have in terms of what development can solve is growing jobs,” said Brandywine Realty Trust CEO Jerry Sweeney. “Nothing changes a person’s perspective or attitude on what they value in life like having a job.

“I would work with public policy leaders to say that what the number one priority we as a city should have at the end of the 10-year period is that we’re one of the top five job-growing cities in the country.”

But it’s not the only job

But job growth alone won’t fix everything. Shari Reams, senior vice president at PNC Bank’s real estate division, argued that the city needs to adjust its housing production incentives to make workforce housing and other more affordable options more viable, for instance.

And Union Packaging CEO Michael Pearson urged attendees to brush up on history in order to understand how we got the housing markets we have now. In particular, he recommended three books for everyone to read: “The Color of Law,” “The New Jim Crow” and “Evicted.” These three books show how public policy baked segregation and extremes of wealth and poverty into our housing markets.

Gentrification, perhaps ironically, could go a long way towards reducing if not eliminating these baked-in inequalities, but first, he said, we need to understand everything that’s wrapped up in that term. “There are mornings when I wake up and say, ‘I love gentrification!'” he told the audience. “But I also have relatives who live in the ‘hood, and gentrification is a threat to them.” The circle no one has yet been able to square effectively is this: Is it possible to have neighborhood revitalization that produces much-needed new businesses and jobs without driving those who need both the most away from them?

That may be the hardest of the conversations we should have in this city in the year ahead. But there’s no question that we should have it, for it will make preparing the ground for the seeds of new jobs to be planted that much easier.

Lesson: Understanding Economic Growth and Its Impact on Cities

Introduction:
Economic growth is the increase in the overall value of goods and services produced in an economy over time. It is an essential indicator of a city's health and prosperity. In this lesson, we will explore the concept of economic growth, its impact on cities, and the challenges that come with it.

Section 1: Understanding Economic Growth

Topic 1: What is Economic Growth?
Economic growth refers to the increase in the total output of goods and services produced within an economy over time. It is typically measured as the change in real gross domestic product (GDP) over a specific period, usually a year.

Topic 2: Why is Economic Growth Important?
Economic growth is crucial because it leads to higher living standards, increased employment opportunities, and improved infrastructure. When an economy grows, it generates more wealth, which allows individuals to enjoy a better quality of life, including access to education, healthcare, and other essential services.

Section 2: The Impact of Economic Growth on Cities

Topic 1: Attracting People and Businesses
Economic growth often attracts people and businesses to a city. As the economy expands, more jobs become available, drawing people to move there in search of employment. Additionally, businesses may choose to locate in a city with a growing economy to take advantage of the increased demand for their products or services.

Topic 2: Increased Demand for Resources
As a city's economy grows, so does the demand for resources such as water, electricity, and transportation. This can lead to strain on existing infrastructure and potentially result in higher costs for these resources.

Section 3: Challenges Associated with Economic Growth

Topic 1: Income Inequality
One significant challenge associated with economic growth is income inequality. When an economy grows rapidly, the wealthy tend to benefit more than those with lower incomes. This can widen the gap between the rich and the poor, leading to social unrest and other issues.

Topic 2: Environmental Concerns
Economic growth also comes with environmental concerns, such as pollution and resource depletion. As a city's economy expands, there may be increased pressure on natural resources, leading to deforestation, water pollution, and other negative impacts on the environment.

Glossary:
- Gross Domestic Product (GDP): The total monetary value of all final goods and services produced within a country's geographic borders in a given time period.
- Inflation: The rate at which the general level of prices for goods and services is rising, and, consequently, the purchasing power of currency is falling.
- Unemployment: The state of being without work, and actively seeking work.

Conclusion:
Understanding economic growth and its impact on cities is essential for policymakers, urban planners, and citizens alike. While economic growth brings many benefits, it also presents challenges that must be addressed to ensure that everyone benefits from the city's prosperity. By learning about the concepts covered in this lesson, you will be better equipped to analyze and understand the complex relationship between economic growth and urban development.

Self-Debate:
- How can cities balance economic growth with environmental sustainability?
- What policies can be implemented to reduce income inequality during periods of rapid economic growth?

Lesson: The Importance of Creating Social Hubs in the Workplace

Introduction:
In today's fast-paced world, people spend a significant amount of time at work. It is essential to create a work environment that fosters a sense of connection and belonging among employees. One way to achieve this is by creating social hubs throughout the workplace. These social hubs are areas where employees can gather, socialize, and interact with each other, promoting a sense of community and collaboration.

Core Value:
The core value of creating social hubs in the workplace is to encourage socialization, interaction, and a sense of belonging among employees. This helps to create a positive work environment, which in turn boosts productivity and job satisfaction.

Section 1: The Importance of Socialization in the Workplace

Topic 1: Socialization Promotes a Sense of Community
Socialization is an essential aspect of human life. It helps us to form connections, build relationships, and feel a sense of belonging. In the workplace, socialization plays a crucial role in creating a sense of community and collaboration among employees. When employees feel connected to their colleagues, they are more likely to work together effectively and enjoy their jobs.

Topic 2: Socialization Boosts Productivity
When employees socialize, they form bonds and connections that help them work better together. Socialization helps to break down barriers between employees, leading to better communication and collaboration. This, in turn, leads to increased productivity and job satisfaction.

Topic 3: Socialization Reduces Stress and Improves Mental Health
Socialization is essential for our mental health and well-being. When we socialize with others, we release endorphins, which are natural mood elevators. Socialization also provides a support system that helps us cope with stress and other challenges that we may face in our personal and professional lives.

Section 2: Creating Social Hubs in the Workplace

Topic 1: Choosing the Right Furniture
To create social hubs in the workplace, it is essential to choose furniture that encourages socialization. Sofas, armchairs, and coffee tables are ideal for creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. It is also essential to choose furniture that is durable and built to last, such as the Safco Lounge Sofa, which has a BIFMA 5.4 rating.

Topic 2: Creating a Welcoming Atmosphere
To create a welcoming atmosphere in the workplace, it is essential to choose furniture that complements the existing decor. For example, the Safco Lounge Sofa is available in black, gray, and cognac vinyl, which complements the Resi and Mirella collections. This creates a cohesive look that makes employees feel at home.

Topic 3: Creating Different Types of Social Hubs
Social hubs can take many forms, from casual seating areas to formal meeting rooms. To cater to different types of socialization, it is essential to create different types of social hubs. For example, you can create a quiet area for employees who want to work alone or a more lively area for employees who want to socialize and collaborate.

Section 3: Conclusion

In conclusion, creating social hubs in the workplace is essential for promoting a sense of community and collaboration among employees. By choosing the right furniture and creating different types of social hubs, you can create a work environment that fosters socialization, interaction, and a sense of belonging. This, in turn, boosts productivity and job satisfaction, leading to a more positive and enjoyable work experience for all employees.

EUS features of annular pancreas (with video).
An annular pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly that results in a band of pancreatic tissue, either partially or completely encircling the duodenum. In patients referred for an upper-GI (UGI) EUS (1) to determine the prevalence of an annular pancreas identified by EUS versus CT and (2) to describe the EUS features of an annular pancreas. After review of UGI EUS procedures from January 1, 2000, through June 1, 2006, we conducted a retrospective review of EUS annular pancreas images to identify characteristic EUS features. This is the largest report describing the EUS findings in 5 patients. Of 9776 patients undergoing UGI EUS, 5 patients (0.05%) (2 men; median age, 64 years; range, 44-69 years) were found to have an annular pancreas. EUS detected a band of pancreatic tissue that encircled the duodenum by 360 degrees (n = 3), 270 degrees (n = 1), or 180 degrees (n = 1). Within this band of tissue, the pancreatic duct was identified in 4 of 5 patients. The ductal and parenchymal features within the annular band were identical to those within the remaining pancreas in all patients. None of the patients had hypoechoic ventral anlage. Whereas, firm EUS criteria of an annular pancreas cannot be established based on 5 patients, certain features may prove useful for diagnosis. Although a diagnosis of an annular pancreas is rare, it should be considered in situations when a patient with possible associated symptoms has a normal CT.

Lesson: Introduction to EUS Features of Annular Pancreas

### Section 1: What is an Annular Pancreas?
An annular pancreas is a rare congenital anomaly that occurs when a band of pancreatic tissue surrounds the duodenum, which is the first part of the small intestine. This condition can cause a variety of symptoms such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and weight loss.

### Section 2: How does EUS help in diagnosing Annular Pancreas?
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that uses sound waves to create images of the digestive tract and surrounding organs. EUS can help in diagnosing annular pancreas by identifying the characteristic EUS features of this condition. These features include a band of pancreatic tissue that encircles the duodenum, and the presence of the pancreatic duct within this band of tissue.

### Section 3: What are the EUS Features of Annular Pancreas?
The EUS features of annular pancreas include:

1. A band of pancreatic tissue that encircles the duodenum by 360 degrees (n = 3), 270 degrees (n = 1), or 180 degrees (n = 1).
2. The presence of the pancreatic duct within this band of tissue in 4 out of 5 patients.

### Section 4: Conclusion
In conclusion, EUS is a valuable diagnostic tool in identifying the characteristic features of annular pancreas. By understanding the EUS features of annular pancreas, physicians can accurately diagnose this condition and provide appropriate treatment options for patients.

### Glossary
- EUS: Endoscopic ultrasound
- Annular Pancreas: A rare congenital anomaly where a band of pancreatic tissue encircles the duodenum
- Duodenum: The first part of the small intestine

In this lesson, we will learn about the effect of acid decontamination on beef steaks. We will explore the microbiological and sensory characteristics of steaks treated with various food-grade acids. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to understand the importance of acid decontamination in food processing and its impact on the quality of beef steaks.

Section 1: Microbiological Characteristics

Topic 1: Acid Decontamination
Acid decontamination is a process used in food processing to reduce microbial contamination on surfaces. In this study, beef strip loins were decontaminated by spraying with solutions of various food-grade acids, including lactic acid, acetic acid, and an acid mixture containing lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid, and ascorbic acid.

Topic 2: Aerobic Plate Counts (APCs)
Aerobic plate counts are a measure of the number of microorganisms present on a surface. In this study, the APCs of steaks fabricated from the acid-treated loins were not significantly different (P > 0.05) from the APCs of steaks fabricated from control loins.

Topic 3: Storage Time
The storage time of the acid-treated beef steaks ranged from 0 to 84 days. The APCs of the steaks were measured initially and at days 3 and 6 of display in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film.

Section 2: Sensory Characteristics

Topic 1: Sensory Evaluation
The sensory evaluation of the acid-treated beef steaks was conducted to determine their overall acceptability. The steaks were evaluated for color, texture, flavor, and overall acceptability.

Topic 2: Results
The results of the sensory evaluation showed that the acid-treated beef steaks were not significantly different (P > 0.05) from the control steaks.

Section 3: Conclusion

In conclusion, the effect of acid decontamination on beef steaks was studied. The microbiological and sensory characteristics of the steaks were not significantly different (P > 0.05) from the control steaks. This suggests that acid decontamination can be an effective method for reducing microbial contamination on beef steaks without compromising their sensory quality.

Glossary:
- Aerobic plate counts (APCs): A measure of the number of microorganisms present on a surface.

Lesson: Introduction to Virtual Machines

## Section 1: What are Virtual Machines?

A virtual machine (VM) is a simulated computer environment in which an operating system and other software can run as if they were running on a "real" computer. It is a powerful tool that allows you to run multiple operating systems on a single physical computer without interfering with each other. This means that you can have Windows running alongside Linux or macOS without any issues.

## Section 2: How do Virtual Machines work?

Virtual machines work by creating a virtualized hardware layer that emulates physical hardware such as CPUs, hard drives, network adapters, and more. This virtualized hardware is then presented to the guest operating system as if it were real hardware. The guest operating system thinks it is running directly on the physical hardware, when in fact it is running within the virtual machine.

Lesson: Understanding Poetry

Introduction:
Poetry is a form of literature that uses language and structure to create meaning and evoke emotions. It is often considered as one of the highest forms of human expression, as it allows individuals to convey their thoughts, feelings, and ideas in a creative and artistic manner. In this lesson, we will explore the basic elements of poetry, such as rhythm, meter, imagery, and symbolism, and learn how to analyze and interpret poems.

Section 1: Rhythm and Meter
Rhythm refers to the pattern of beats or stresses in a line of poetry, while meter refers to the number of syllables in each line. These two elements work together to create a musical quality that adds to the overall effect of the poem. To understand rhythm and meter, let's take a look at the following example:

```
The CAT in the HAT
Sat on a MAT
```

In this example, the first line has four stressed syllables (The CAT in the HAT), while the second line has three stresses (Sat on a MAT). The pattern repeats itself throughout the poem, creating a consistent rhythm and meter.

Questions and Answers:
- What is rhythm in poetry?
- Rhythm refers to the pattern of beats or stresses in a line of poetry.
- What is meter in poetry?
- Meter refers to the number of syllables in each line.

Section 2: Imagery
Imagery refers to the use of descriptive language to create mental images or pictures in the reader's mind. This is an essential element of poetry, as it helps to convey the mood, tone, and theme of the poem. Let's take a look at the following example:

```
The sun had long since set,
And the moon, in its first quarter,
Had but just risen over the woods,
When I came to the edge of the clearing,
And saw the light of the fire.
```

In this example, the author uses vivid descriptions to create a sense of place and time, allowing the reader to visualize the scene.

Questions and Answers:
- What is imagery in poetry?
- Imagery refers to the use of descriptive language to create mental images or pictures in the reader's mind.
- How does imagery help to convey the mood, tone, and theme of a poem?
- Imagery helps to create a vivid and immersive experience for the reader, allowing them to better understand and connect with the emotions and ideas presented in the poem.

Section 3: Symbolism
Symbolism refers to the use of objects, characters, or events to represent abstract ideas or concepts. This is a powerful tool in poetry, as it allows the author to convey complex ideas in a concise and memorable way. Let's take a look at the following example:

```
I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills,
When I saw a crowd, a host, of golden daffodils;
Amidst the unmown meadow, weedy, rank, and gay,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.
```

In this example, the daffodils represent joy, hope, and renewal, adding depth and meaning to the simple act of seeing a field of flowers.

Questions and Answers:
- What is symbolism in poetry?
- Symbolism refers to the use of objects, characters, or events to represent abstract ideas or concepts.
- How does symbolism add depth and meaning to a poem?
- By using symbols, poets can convey complex ideas and emotions in a concise and memorable way, allowing readers to engage with the deeper themes and ideas presented in the poem.

Conclusion:
Understanding poetry requires a willingness to engage with the language and structure of the text, as well as an openness to exploring the emotional and intellectual ideas presented. By studying the basic elements of rhythm, meter, imagery, and symbolism, we can begin to appreciate the artistry and power of poetry, and apply these skills to our own writing and interpretation of poetry.

Lesson: Introduction to Lighthouses

Introduction
A lighthouse is a tower with a light and a horn that helps ships navigate safely through the water. They are usually built on the coast or on islands where there are dangerous rocks or shallow waters. Lighthouses have been around for thousands of years, but they became more important during the 18th and 19th centuries when ships started traveling faster and farther.

Core Value
The core value of this lesson is to introduce students to the history, purpose, and importance of lighthouses. Students will learn about the different types of lighthouses, their locations, and how they help sailors navigate the waters safely.

Section 1: History of Lighthouses

The first lighthouses were built over 2,000 years ago by the ancient Greeks and Egyptians. They used fires or torches to warn sailors of danger. In the 17th century, coal gas was used to create a brighter light. Later, oil lamps were used, and finally, electricity was used to power the lights.

Section 2: Purpose of Lighthouses

The purpose of a lighthouse is to help ships navigate safely through the water. They do this by using a light that flashes on and off or a horn that sounds a warning. Lighthouses are usually located in areas where there are dangerous rocks or shallow waters that could cause ships to run aground.

Section 3: Types of Lighthouses

There are several types of lighthouses, including:

1. Tower Lighthouses - These are tall towers with a light at the top. They can be made of stone, brick, or metal.
2. Lightship Lighthouses - These are ships that have a light on them to warn sailors of danger. They are usually anchored in a specific location.
3. Beacon Lighthouses - These are tall structures with a light at the top. They can be made of wood, concrete, or metal.
4. Buoy Lighthouses - These are floating objects with a light on them. They are usually placed in areas where there are dangerous rocks or shallow waters.

Section 4: Locations of Lighthouses

Lighthouses are usually built in areas where there are dangerous rocks or shallow waters. They are also built near harbors or other places where ships need to navigate carefully. Some famous lighthouses are located in places like Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and the Strait of Gibraltar.

Section 5: How Lighthouses Help Sailors

Lighthouses help sailors navigate the waters safely by using a light that flashes on and off or a horn that sounds a warning. The light or horn lets sailors know where the lighthouse is located so they can stay away from danger. Lighthouses also have different colors and patterns of lights that let sailors know what type of danger they are facing. For example, a red light means there is a danger to the right of the ship, while a green light means there is no danger.

Section 6: Conclusion

In conclusion, lighthouses have been around for thousands of years and have played an important role in helping sailors navigate the waters safely. By learning about the history, purpose, and importance of lighthouses, we can appreciate their significance and understand why they are still important today.

Now Enrolling Toddlers 18 months to 3 years. Read Below Why Early Education is so Beneficial!

Current research and various studies support Maria Montessori's approach to Early Education. She discovered that children 0-6 years old were in an absorbent mind, where children absorb information from their environment with little to no effort. Montessori wrote and spoke about "Sensitive Periods", which are periods in a person’s development when they are more responsive to certain stimuli and quicker to learn particular skills. She also taught us that when these crucial stages are missed (which she referred to as "dropped stitches", learning becomes a more difficult process. For example, children who are exposed to a second language in their first six years have an advantage over people who learn a second language later in life, when the sensistive period for language development has passed.

Simply put, a child’s early years lay the foundation for all that is to come. In recent years, researchers have learned that the human brain develops the vast majority of its neurons, and is at its most receptive to learning, between birth and three years of age. In fact, the intake of new information is critical to the formation of active neural pathways (Shonkoff & Phillips, 2000).

MCS Toddlers do scrubbing work.

The Toddler Montessori environment is carefully designed to meet the children's needs in this critical stage of development. Exploration of their environment through the five senses coupled with a rich socially prepared environment with children of different ages and abilities allows Toddlers the opportunity to develop the following:

self expression through arts, music, dance, building and exploration of materials

ability to process emotions and life events in a safe and loving environment

cooperation

development of language

independence

control of body

sense of order

Lesson: The Importance of Early Education

Introduction:
Early education is a crucial stage in a child's life that lays the foundation for all future learning. Research shows that the human brain develops the majority of its neurons and is most receptive to learning during the first three years of life. This lesson will explore the importance of early education and why it is beneficial for children.

Section 1: The Montessori Approach to Early Education

Maria Montessori, an Italian physician and educator, developed the Montessori method of education in the early 20th century. She believed that children aged 0-6 years old were in an absorbent mind, meaning they absorbed information from their environment with little to no effort. Montessori also talked about "Sensitive Periods," which are periods in a person's development when they are more responsive to certain stimuli and quicker to learn particular skills.

Questions and Answers:
1. What is the Montessori approach to early education?
Answer: The Montessori approach to early education emphasizes hands-on learning and encourages children to explore their environment.

2. What is the absorbent mind?
Answer: The absorbent mind is a period in a child's life where they absorb information from their environment with little to no effort.

Section 2: The Importance of Early Education

Research supports the Montessori approach to early education, showing that children who are exposed to a second language in their first six years have an advantage over people who learn a second language later in life, when the sensitive period for language development has passed. Simply put, a child's early years lay the foundation for all that is to come.

Questions and Answers:
1. Why is early education important?
Answer: Early education is important because it lays the foundation for all future learning.

2. What is the sensitive period for language development?
Answer: The sensitive period for language development is the period in a person's life when they are more responsive to learning a second language.

Section 3: Practical Examples and Real-World Scenarios

One practical example of the importance of early education is the impact of music education on a child's brain development. Studies have shown that exposure to music education in the early years can lead to improved language skills, increased cognitive abilities, and better fine motor skills.

Real-world scenarios include the impact of early education on a child's social and emotional development. Children who attend high-quality early education programs are more likely to exhibit positive social behaviors, such as sharing and cooperation, and have better relationships with peers.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, early education is a crucial stage in a child's life that lays the foundation for all future learning. By providing children with opportunities to explore their environment and learn through hands-on activities, we can help them develop the skills they need to succeed in life. The importance of early education cannot be overstated, and parents and educators must work together to ensure that every child has access to quality early education programs.

With the withdrawal of American combat troops from Iraq in December and an exit from Afghanistan planned for 2013, many Americans are hoping that President Obama’s State of the Union promise of a large “peace dividend” will help lift the country out of the Great Recession. U.S. military spending rose dramatically after 2001, beginning even before September 11. After controlling for inflation, military spending rose at an average rate of 5.3% per year from 2001 to 2010, while the U.S. economy grew at an average annual rate of only 1.6%. The U.S. spent $689 billion on the military in 2010, almost six times more than the next biggest spender, China ($119 billion), and more than eleven times more than Russia ($59 billion). In fact, the U.S. spent more on the military than the next seventeen nations combined

A recent study by two economists at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst explains why a peace dividend would benefit the economy. The study compares the impact on job creation of military spending versus spending on green economy incentives, health care, education, and tax cuts. The economists, Robert Pollin and Heidi Garrett-Peltier, concluded that spending on the military is a relatively poor way to create jobs. In fact, the study estimates that $1 billion in spending on the military generates about 11,200 jobs, while the same amount in tax cuts creates 15,100 jobs; green economy spending yields 16,800 jobs; health care 17,200; and education creates 26,700 jobs.

The average annual compensation (wages plus benefits) for a military job is $90,776, while that of a job in education is $72,246 and in health care $68,978.

Lesson: Understanding Military Spending and its Impact on the Economy

Introduction:
Military spending is a significant portion of the government's budget. It is essential to understand the impact of military spending on the economy and how it can affect job creation. In this lesson, we will explore the concepts of military spending, economic growth, and job creation. We will also analyze the impact of military spending on the economy and discuss the potential benefits of a peace dividend.

Section 1: Understanding Military Spending

Topic 1: What is Military Spending?
Military spending refers to the amount of money a government allocates to its armed forces and related activities. It includes expenditures on salaries, equipment, training, research, and development.

Topic 2: Why do Countries Spend on their Military?
Countries spend on their military to ensure national security, protect their borders, and maintain peace within their territory. Military spending also helps create jobs and stimulate economic growth.

Section 2: Economic Growth and Job Creation

Topic 1: How does Military Spending Affect Economic Growth?
Military spending can have both positive and negative effects on economic growth. When a country spends more on its military, it can lead to increased production of goods and services, which can boost the economy. However, if the spending is not managed effectively, it can lead to inflation, debt, and other economic problems.

Topic 2: How does Military Spending Create Jobs?
Military spending creates jobs indirectly through the production of goods and services needed by the military. For example, when the government buys weapons or other military equipment, it creates jobs in the manufacturing industry. Additionally, military personnel receive salaries, which contribute to personal income and, therefore, economic growth.

Section 3: The Impact of Military Spending on the Economy

Topic 1: The Effect of Military Spending on Economic Growth
Military spending can have a significant impact on economic growth. According to a study by two economists at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, military spending can lead to job creation and economic growth. However, if the spending is not managed effectively, it can lead to inflation, debt, and other economic problems.

Topic 2: The Impact of Military Spending on Job Creation
Military spending creates jobs indirectly through the production of goods and services needed by the military. For example, when the government buys weapons or other military equipment, it creates jobs in the manufacturing industry. Additionally, military personnel receive salaries, which contribute to personal income and, therefore, economic growth.

Section 4: The Potential Benefits of a Peace Dividend

Topic 1: What is a Peace Dividend?
A peace dividend refers to the economic benefits that result from a reduction in military spending. It is the idea that, after a period of high military spending, a country can enjoy the fruits of its investment in the form of lower taxes, increased consumer spending, and economic growth.

Topic 2: Why is a Peace Dividend Important?
A peace dividend is important because it can lead to economic growth and job creation. When military spending decreases, the government can allocate more resources to other areas such as education, infrastructure, and social programs, which can stimulate economic growth and create jobs.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, understanding military spending and its impact on the economy is crucial. While military spending can lead to economic growth and job creation, it must be managed effectively to avoid negative consequences such as inflation and debt. A peace dividend, resulting from a reduction in military spending, can lead to economic growth and job creation, providing benefits to society. By analyzing the impact of military spending on the economy, we can better understand the potential benefits of a peace dividend and make informed decisions about government spending.

Topic 1: Attention Grabbing
Expensive opening scenes are designed to grab the viewer's attention and make them want to keep watching. They are often visually stunning and feature high-budget effects that leave a lasting impression on the audience.

Topic 2: Establishing the Show's Identity
Expensive opening scenes can also help establish the show's identity. For example, a show about cars might feature a high-speed chase or a car crash in its opening scene to convey the excitement and danger of the subject matter.

An expensive opening scene can set the tone for the rest of the show. It can convey the mood, style, and tone of the program, which helps viewers understand what kind of show they are watching.

Section 2: What Makes an Expensive Opening Scene Effective?

Topic 1: Visual Appeal
An effective expensive opening scene is visually appealing. It should be well-lit, well-choreographed, and feature interesting camera angles that draw the viewer in.

An effective opening scene should evoke emotions in the viewer. It could be excitement, fear, joy, or even sadness. The goal is to make the viewer feel something and want to keep watching.

Lesson: Introduction to Vaping

## Section 1: What is Vaping?
Vaping is the process of inhaling and exhaling aerosol or vapor produced by an electronic device called a vape pen or e-cigarette. This device heats a liquid solution, called e-liquid, which usually contains nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals. The heated liquid turns into vapor, which is then inhaled into the lungs and exhaled as smoke.

## Section 2: Types of Vapes
There are many types of vapes available on the market today. They can be broadly classified into two categories: open-system and closed-system devices. Open-system devices allow users to refill their own e-liquids while closed-system devices come pre-filled with e-liquids.

Closed-system devices are also known as disposable vapes, and they are designed to be used once and then thrown away. These devices are very convenient for people who do not want the hassle of refilling their own e-liquids.

Open-system devices, on the other hand, are designed to be refilled with e-liquids. These devices are generally more expensive than closed-system devices but offer more customization options.

## Section 3: Safety Precautions
Although vaping is considered safer than smoking cigarettes, it is essential to take safety precautions when using these devices. Here are some safety tips:

1. Always read the instructions manual before using your vape device.
2. Never leave your vape device unattended while it is charging.
3. Keep your vape device and e-liquids out of reach of children and pets.
4. Do not modify your vape device or use unauthorized e-liquids.
5. Always use the correct charger for your vape device and avoid overcharging.

## Section 4: The Science Behind Vaping
When you vape, you inhale aerosol or vapor produced by an electronic device called a vape pen or e-cigarette. This device heats a liquid solution called e-liquid, which usually contains nicotine, flavorings, and other chemicals. The heated liquid turns into vapor, which is then inhaled into the lungs and exhaled as smoke.

The vapor produced by vaping contains fewer toxins than cigarette smoke because it does not contain tar, carbon monoxide, or other chemicals found in cigarettes. However, the long-term effects of vaping are still unknown, and more research is needed to understand the full impact of these devices on human health.

## Section 5: Conclusion
In conclusion, vaping is a popular alternative to smoking cigarettes. It is essential to take safety precautions when using these devices and understand the science behind them. By following these guidelines, you can enjoy vaping safely and responsibly.

Co-creator Steven Moffat has now confirmed the special will take place in Victorian London, validating fan assumptions about the episode. Last month the show’s stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Martin Freeman were spotted filming Sherlock in 19th century clothes, causing fans to wonder if perhaps the crime-fighting duo attended a costume ball, or ir perhaps it was just some kind of dream sequence within the special. But no: The 90-minute episode literally takes place more than 100 years ago.

“The special is its own thing,” Moffat told EW before attending a panel at the South by Southwest conference on Monday. “We wouldn’t have done the story we’re doing, and the way we’re doing it, if we didn’t have this special. It’s not part of the run of three episodes. So we had this to do it — as we could hardly conceal — it’s Victorian. [Co-creator Mark Gatiss] and me, we wanted to do this, but it had to be a special, it had to be separate entity on its own. It’s kind of in its own little bubble.”

Lesson: Introduction to Victorian London

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Victorian London refers to the period in history when Queen Victoria reigned over England from 1837 to 1901. During this time, London experienced rapid growth and became the largest city in the world. This era was marked by significant social, political, and technological changes that shaped the modern world.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
One of the most notable changes during this period was the expansion of the railway system, which made travel faster and easier. This allowed people to move around the country more easily and facilitated trade and commerce. Another significant change was the growth of the middle class, which led to an increase in consumerism and the rise of department stores like Harrods.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
Victorian London was also a time of great inequality, with many people living in poverty and suffering from overcrowded and unsanitary living conditions. This led to the spread of diseases like cholera and tuberculosis. However, it was also a time of great innovation and creativity, with writers like Charles Dickens and Oscar Wilde producing works that are still celebrated today.

## Glossary
- Victorian: Pertaining to the reign of Queen Victoria (1837-1901)
- Consumerism: The practice of buying and using goods and services in increasing amounts
- Department store: A retail establishment that sells a wide range of products, especially luxury goods
- Inequality: The state of being unequal, especially in terms of opportunities and resources
- Cholera: An infectious disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae
- Tuberculosis: A contagious disease caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that mainly affects the lungs

## Conclusion
Victorian London was a time of great change and innovation. By studying this era, we can gain insights into how societies evolve and adapt to new technologies and ideas. We can also learn about the challenges faced by different groups of people and how they responded to them. Understanding the past can help us make better decisions in the present and future.

Lesson: How to Write a Concert Review

Introduction:
A concert review is a written evaluation of a live music performance. In this lesson, we will learn how to write a concert review by analyzing a sample review.

Section 1: Understanding the Structure of a Concert Review

The structure of a concert review typically includes the following elements:

- Introduction: The first paragraph should introduce the concert, including the artist or band, the name of the venue, and the date of the performance.
- Body: The body of the review should include a description of the performance, including the music, stage presence, and overall atmosphere. This section should also include the reviewer's opinion of the concert.
- Conclusion: The final paragraph should summarize the reviewer's thoughts on the concert and provide a final evaluation.

Section 2: Analyzing the Sample Review

Let's analyze the following sample review:

"Played at the Chapel last night at 777 Valencia St. in the Mission. What an amazing new venue to have in San Francisco. We look forward to playing there again soon.. We've been hard at work recording our new album. Its sounding incredible so far! We should be done mixing and mastering in late March. So expect a late 2013 release. Hear ya See ya Feel Ya Soon."

Introduction:
The introduction provides basic information about the concert, including the name of the venue and the date of the performance.

Body:
The body of the review is brief and lacks any specific details about the performance. Instead, it focuses on future plans for the band, such as recording a new album and playing at the venue again.

Conclusion:
The conclusion provides no evaluation of the concert and simply states that the band looks forward to playing at the venue again.

Discussion:
While this review provides some basic information about the concert, it lacks the necessary details to provide a thorough evaluation. As a reviewer, it is important to include specific details about the music, stage presence, and overall atmosphere to provide a complete picture of the performance. Additionally, the conclusion should provide a final evaluation of the concert.

Section 3: Writing Your Own Concert Review

Now that we have analyzed a sample review, let's try writing our own concert review. Imagine you just attended a concert by your favorite band and want to share your experience with others. Use the structure of a concert review to guide your writing.

Introduction:
Begin by introducing the concert, including the artist or band, the name of the venue, and the date of the performance.

Body:
Provide a detailed description of the performance, including the music, stage presence, and overall atmosphere. Use specific details to paint a vivid picture of the concert for your readers. Share your opinion of the concert and what made it stand out from other performances.

Conclusion:
Summarize your thoughts on the concert and provide a final evaluation. Did the concert meet your expectations? Would you recommend it to others?

Glossary:
- Concert: A live music performance by one or more musicians
- Venue: The location where the concert is held
- Atmosphere: The overall mood or feeling of the concert

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned the structure of a concert review and analyzed a sample review. We then used this structure to write our own concert review. By following these steps, we can effectively evaluate and share our experiences at live music performances.
