///////////////Jobs vanish around the globe as people worry more and countries struggle to enact policies to stabilize local economies. A UN agency estimates that job losses could total 50 million by the end of 2009, reports Nelson Schwartz for the New York Times. Many jobseekers could be bitter and prepared to protest and seek new political leaders. Economic instability has replaced terrorism as the biggest security threat, notes Dennis C. Blair, US director of national intelligence. “In emerging economies like those in Eastern Europe, there are fears that growing joblessness might encourage a move away from free-market, pro-Western policies, while in developed countries unemployment could bolster efforts to protect local industries at the expense of global,” Schwartz writes. Solutions could rest in collaborative rather than competitive economic policies on population control, immigration, innovation and education. Still, rich and poor in the world must adjust to a new employment and economic landscape. – YaleGlobal



/////////////////////DYSCALCULIA-MATHS ANXIETY
struggles with a learning disability called
Dyscalculia. She has trouble telling time, counting change, and doing
basic level math. Dyscalculia affects a small number of students,
teachers say. However, math anxiety affects a very large number.
Teaching these students math has become a challenge for educators.




//////////////////Irlen Syndrome is a possible explanation for the average to gifted
student who avoids reading or cannot read and for the
learning-disabled student who struggles with reading. Helen Irlen, a
school psychologist, worked with college students with reading
difficulties. The students had average to above-average intelligence.
They reported symptoms that occurred when reading that no one had
identified before such as: migraines and headaches, falling asleep,
words switching around, print moving or vibrating, the text becoming
3D, the brightness of the page hurting their eyes, print becoming
blurry, and words blending into each other. Irlen found that placing
colored overlays over the reading material improved the student's
comprehension, fluency, comfort, and attention.

“Hippies were the fireworks of freedom,” an Istanbul journalist declares at the beginning of “Magic Bus,” Rory MacLean’s retracing of the eastward path traveled by enlightenment-hungry pilgrims in the 1960s and ’70s. With a spiritual craving kindled by a pantheon of idiosyncratic gurus that included Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, Timothy Leary, Bob Dylan and Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, these so-called Intrepids had little money but plenty of time — and a yen to sip tea and smoke dope with the locals. Their goal wasn’t to observe other cultures but to absorb them and be transformed.



////////////////////CURIOSITY IS MY PRIMARY MOIVATION


////////////////////......As acquisitions accumulate, and ideas about classification evolve, don't your bookshelves exhibit the thermodynamic property of 'entropy' and disintegrate into chaos? Mine do, and so I find solace in the belief that this is a good thing. It allows one -- or one's friends -- to tangentially discover books one was NOT looking for.



///////////////////.......I love books, the way they smell, feel and talk to me. They go with me
> wherever the family's stationed. I have faced similar problems with
books.



/////////////////////.........man bashing plays so well in literature, don't it?



////////////////OTT MOMENTS



////////////////////.........BLLU =The narration is very entertaining, the 3 songs of SRK with Deepika
Padukone, Priyanka Chopra and Kareena Kapoor are visually brilliant and
placed perfectly. The music is good. Love Mera Hit Hit and Mar Jaani are the
pick of the lot. Billu Bhayankar is funny and stays with you long after the
credits roll.

Bilu Barber belongs to Irrfan Khan. The highly talented actor is splendid as
Billu displaying a huge array of expressions and emotions on screen. Lara
Dutta compliments Irrfan pretty well, it has to be her best role to date.
Character actors like Om Puri, Ansari, Rajpal Yadav and the others,
entertain."

////////////////PART OF PROBLEM OR PART OF SOLUTION


///////////////........Evolutionary Theory of Sleep:

Evolutionary theory, also known as the adaptive theory of sleep, suggests that periods of activity and inactivity evolved as a means of conserving energy. According to this theory, all species have adapted to sleep during periods of time when wakefulness would be the most hazardous.

Support for this theory comes from comparative research of different animal species. Animals that have few natural predators, such as bears and lions, often sleep between 12 to 15 hours each day. On the other hand, animals that have many natural predators have only short periods of sleep, usually getting no more than 4 or 5 hours of sleep each day.
