Hathor… I am the Egyptian Goddess of love, beauty, music, fertility, dance and joy. This is a time to be free and explore. Let your curiosity and creativity lead you to the most unexpected places. Much will be gained through focused play and the appreciation of new things. The energy of this time is fertile for allowing your heart energy to lead you – to make sense of what is nonsensical and misunderstood through the means of feelings instead of logic. Hold space for your inner child and rediscover your essence, your soul-being. Much will be revealed through innocent play as space opens up and new layers unfold.
Ostara… I am the Germanic Goddess of Spring and the dawn. Be gentle with yourself; transformation has a delicacy to it that must be minded or else it is all too easy to hide and avoid it. Be gentle with who you are becoming; tender and new like the first buds of Spring. There is much expectation but there is no hurry; everything happens in perfect timing. Release the old and the past with compassion, they brought you here but there is no need to carry them further. Be content in the now, in this precious moment and the beauty that is unfolding within you. Respect and honor your process for it is uniquely your own. Allow yourself the time and space you need; rebirth and renewal is at hand.
Persephone… I am the Greek Goddess of the Spring and Queen of the Underworld. I am of the light and of the dark; the innocence and of the shadow. The fear and the courage. I am here to light your way back to who you truly are, through delicious duality. I can help you balance these seeming opposites so that you can emerge from your process with strength, confidence and knowing. We will integrate the wisdom gathered during the deep, dark stillness of Winter so that we can use it to build anew in the Spring and beyond. I will help you honor all of your parts so that you may own the authenticity of your being. I did not choose to go down the dark path willingly; not many of us do. It is how we emerge from the depths that builds who we are.
Hathor…Interacting with this divine energy can involve loving yourself up in a variety of ways; taking yourself out to your favorite place to eat, visiting a beautiful garden, going to a great art show or dance party…She's all about engaging your senses!
Ostara…Her divine energy is quietly introspective, with lots of journaling and taking your time to really observe your process. Playing soothing, uplifting music in your home space to raise the vibration or doing gentle stretches before you go to bed…she can help you ease the discomforts that come with transformation through nurturing and patience.
Persephone…She embraces the duality of nature, so by playing with opposites she can help bring you into balance. Moving from masculine energy with yang activities to feminine energy with stillness and reflection…or following up a healthy activity with something sweet and a bit naughty…see where the experimentation takes you!

Businessman with hands over mouth, eyes, ears.
If you're unsure about the language and processes of music royalties in the United States, a new informational graphic should help, which you can see below (for higher-res, go here). The Music Business Association, also known as Music Biz and formerly known as NARM, has put together a cheat sheet with the help of ASCAP, Harry Fox, The Recording Academy, SESAC and SoundExchange.
Every recording artist, songwriter, record label and publisher needs to understand how money flows throughout the music business -- especially in an era of access models where royalties aren't derived just from music sales. (That goes for employees of music companies, too. It never hurts to understand the nuts and bolts of your chosen profession.) The graphic makes clear that creators need to register with various organizations to ensure their creative works are protected and the creator will receive the appropriate royalties.
The business side of music can be downright complicated. The government and courts determine some royalties. Other royalties are paid out according to an artist's recording contract or, in the case of an independent artist, the distributor's licensing deal with a digital service. And other royalties are established by negotiations between individual buyers and sellers. Some royalties go through a collection society. Other royalties are routed through a record label or distributor. An accurate map of royalty pathways would be a tangled mess.
And a note: When the graphic says there are "two basic rights for music," it means there are two copyrights related to music. One copyright relates to songwriting and the other copyright relates to recording. In fact, music has six rights: performance (in public places, on radio and television), distribution (physical and digital distribution, synchronization), reproduction (of compositions for CDs, downloads, etc.), display (usually of song lyrics), derivative works (modifications of the original work) and digital transmission (via streaming service, satellite radio and cable radio).


How wonderful! Your best friend has just announced that she is pregnant! While her head is full of thoughts about the future, her gynecological visits, diapers and the more immediate morning sickness; yours might be full of the baby shower planning and how you need to throw one. If you are thinking you do not have enough know-how or resources for planning the ultimate baby shower; worry no more! You have before you, a quick and easy guide packed with tons of ideas to help you throw the ultimate baby shower. And if these aren't enough, be sure to check out my friend Jesse over at Baby Ideas, she has thousands of baby shower ideas on her site.
Who, Where, When– Find a person closest to the mum-to-be (her mother, sister, husband etc) and let them know what you are planning. Get them to help you out with the basic guest list and also the theme for the shower. Choose the date so that the mother-to-be is available and create a guest list to determine who should be invited. Choose a venue which could be a park, a restaurant, or even your home. I always recommend a clubhouse or dining hall because the cleanup is taken care of. This will of course depend on your budget.
Select a theme– Be it any party, a theme helps set a definite course so you can choose your invitations, décor, games etc based on it. Baby shower themes also help you make your shower extra special. You can keep things ultra simple by selecting a theme based on the to-be-mom's favorite color or hobby. I have discussed some of the most popular baby shower themes and ideas below.
The Guest list-Now, I always recommend that you consult the to-be-mom before finalizing the guest list. (This will depend on whether or not you are planning a surprise shower). You can then purchase or make your baby shower invitations. These days, many online portals help you create amazingly creative baby shower invites. The invites must contain the date, time, place, and any additional information like whether the shower is a surprise one etc. You can also include baby shower registry information where relevant.
Baby shower games-Kick off the shower with some wonderful ice-breaker games and Baby shower activities. I have discussed some popular baby shower games later in this guide.
The Food– Your baby shower menu largely depends on the time of the day of the event. It is always expected that you will serve cake and finger foods, no matter what time of the day. I always provide a light snack but splurge on desserts at baby showers. In majority of the showers I have thrown (and believe me when I say that I have thrown many) I like to order cake from the local bakery and decorate it myself using the theme I have selected for the shower. Some of my favorite finger food ideas for baby showers include: Deviled Eggs, Cucumber Sandwiches, Smoked-salmon rolls, No-bake cookies and Sweet punch.
Favors-Baby shower favors help you show your appreciation to the guests. I love giving out scented candles, potted plants, small bags with coffee beans, baby bib shaped soaps, tiny jars filled with little trinkets and so on. These are always a huge hit and make for wonderful keepsakes for your guests.
Color– If you know the to-be-mother's favorite color, you can decorate the venue in that color and also hand out invitations, food, cake and favors of that color.
Rubber Ducky theme– This is a popular baby shower theme and you can place tiny yellow colored rubber ducks all around the venue. Favors in this theme are also readily available. I like to display fish bowls all over the place with tiny rubber duckies floating around.
Nautical or beach theme– Blue is the prominent color in this theme and additionally, you could place tiny seas shells, starfish, tumbled rocks etc for the décor. Napkins and plates can also have nautical elements.
Garden party– Go in for all things floral- flower shaped cake, colorful floral favors, and display baskets filled with flowers all around.
Name game– Have guests write as many names they can think of ending in certain combinations: 'a, as, ie, en' etc.
Guessing games– Fill baby bottles with diaper pins, pacifiers or even small candy and ask guests to guess how many are present.
Baby shower nursery game-Make list of partially filled nursery rhyme titles and have guests fill in the rest. The first one to fill in all correctly is the winner.
Now that you have this guide, putting together an excellent baby shower for your favorite to-be-mum might be the easiest thing you do all year (and you need not even admit to people that it was this easy!) Good luck!

Hilton Magic brings energy to Cyclones' win over Texas
Hailey Dohnal, Assistant Sports Editor|January 17, 2023
Jacob Rice
Fans celebrate a two-pointer at the ISU vs. Texas men's basketball game, Jan. 17.
AMES — The spring semester began Tuesday but students seemed a little more focused on something else other than their academics: the Iowa State men's basketball game.
With students camping out outside Hilton Coliseum nearly all day, former Cyclone Tyrese Hunter and the Texas Longhorns did not know what awaited them in what would end up being a 78-67 Cyclone win.
As the doors to Hilton opened about 90 minutes before tip-off, students sprinted to their seats, put on their white t-shirts to prepare for the white-out theme and began booing Hunter any time he stepped onto the floor.
When Hunter missed his first basket of the game, the crowd cheered like there was no tomorrow. Anything Hunter did "wrong," the Hilton Magic loved it.
Nonetheless, that didn't stop Hunter from scoring ten points in the first half.
"That was unreal," Jaren Holmes said about the Hilton crowd. "It almost felt like an NBA playoff game."
While the fans had a lot to say about Hunter's return to Ames, the Cyclones were focused on getting a comeback win after their loss to the Kansas Jayhawks Saturday afternoon.
From the beginning, it was a physical game against the Longhorns with both teams doing whatever they could to get the ball in their possession.
The Cyclones won the tip-off and Gabe Kalscheur immediately drove to the basket to get the first points on the board. Texas then fired back, also putting two points on the board.
However, Iowa State struggled to get things rolling consistently. Baskets were going in but not as quickly as the Longhorns were. With eight minutes left in the first half, the Cyclones trailed by nine.
"The first 10 minutes, they were the aggressor," head coach T.J. Otzelberger said.
Nonetheless, Iowa State began to find its groove after back-to-back threes by Kalscheur and Caleb Grill. Additionally, a jumper and a layup by Holmes got the Cyclones that much closer to a lead.
"As we started to turn them over and pressure them more, obviously the game and the offense came around our way," Otzelberger said.
Otzelberger said that the way in which they turned the game around for that last 30 minutes was the team that Iowa State needs to continue to be.
Shortly after, Kalscheur hit another three to tie the game at 31. At the half, the Cyclones led by one, 36-35 and had three turnovers compared to the Longhorns' eight. Furthermore, four Cyclones had at least one steal with freshman Tamin Lipsey at three.
"There's not a player that works harder than Gabe Kalscheur," Otzelberger said. "Gabe is playing to the level of what he's earning."
Iowa State came out hot in the second half forcing a turnover on Texas the second they grabbed the ball.
Holmes and Osun Osunniyi then shot back-to-back baskets to bring the Hilton Magic back to life. Quickly after came a "fire up the Grill" moment after Grill hit a three-pointer at the shot clock buzzer.
At the first media timeout in the second half, the Cyclones led 47-41. Once again, however, the fast-paced Longhorns came back to tie after going on a 6-0 run.
"We did a great job of staying together," Kalscheur said.

After that run came to a three-minute scoring drought as Iowa State took the lead and ran with it.
With six minutes remaining, the Cyclones were on a 7-0 run and led Texas by nine and continued to grow.
Four Cyclones were in double digits and all worked together to grab the win. Holmes at 21 with Grill at 17 and Kalscheur at 16. Osunniyi had 11 and also led the team in rebounds with seven.
Not to forget about Lipsey however who had six assists.
"I don't look at the numbers as much when it comes to Tamin," Otzelberger said. "He's a winner, he finds a way to do what his team needs to do to make them win."
The final score in Ames was 78-67 and Iowa State grabbed the Big 12 win they were looking for.
"Gotta keep pushing," Holmes said.
So, maybe it was worth it to skip class for the Cyclones.

With about a minute to go in Wednesday night's nailbiter against Virginia Tech, Boston College men's basketball's Jerome Robinson picked Chris Clarke's pocket, pushed the ball up the court, planted his feet at the top of the arc and lined up a 3-pointer. He didn't get the shot to fall, but the junior did get the call—well, calls. Justin Bibbs got a piece of Robinson's hand on the 3-point attempt, gifting the 6-foot-5 combo guard three free throws. Seconds later, out of apparent frustration, Clarke—who turned the ball over at the start of this wild sequence—got T'd up.
The boneheaded mistake tacked on two more shots at the charity stripe for the Eagles. But unlike a shooting foul, head coach Jim Christian could have picked anyone to step up and take the pair of technical free throws. Robinson didn't give him, nor Jordan Chatman—at the time, the third-best free throw shooter in the ACC—a chance to make a change. There was no doubt in his mind that he was shooting all five of those shots.
"I just knew the first two would get me in a rhythm for the three in a row," Robinson told reporters following the game.
That they did: The junior netted all five of the successive free throws, turning a seven-point game into a one-possession thriller. It was only a matter of time before Robinson drew another personal, this time driving to the basket. Two more free throws, and the game was tied. After missing the game-winning shot at the buzzer, the Raleigh, N.C. native took a few more trips to the line in overtime. When all was said and done, Robinson finished 12-of-13 from the stripe on the night, setting a career high in free throw conversions.
His performance was anything but a fluke. This season, Robinson has knocked down 83.5 percent of his free throw attempts, good for 11th in the conference—a stat that has been clouded by his much-improved 3-point marksmanship.
Prior to this year, Robinson was a below average free throw shooter. As a freshman, he hovered around the 64-percent mark. Although his numbers jumped in 2016-17, a 72.2-percent clip wasn't anything to brag about either.
The problem has never been getting to the line.
Robinson has always had a knack for absorbing contact. In fact, last season he averaged 5.1 free throw attempts per game—0.4 more than he's recorded during this year's campaign. Yet, as an underclassmen, he struggled to actually capitalize on those scoring opportunities, ultimately throwing away quite a few points at the stripe.
This year has been a different story. Robinson's percentage has skyrocketed, all while the junior has maintained a high volume of free throw attempts. Only one of the ACC's top-10 free throw shooters has racked up more shots at the stripe than Robinson this season. While many point to Chatman—who's on the edge of the 88-percent mark—as the Eagles' best free throw shooter, it's important to note that the former BYU transfer has only taken slightly more than half the attempts that Robinson has.
What's even more impressive is that the combo guard thrives the most under pressure. He's shooting 85.7 percent from the line during ACC play, better than all but seven players in the conference, including Chatman. And, in the second half of contests, he's been close to flawless since late November. Over the course of the past 15 games, Robinson has drained 88.2 percent of his free throw attempts in the back half of play.
Along with Ky Bowman and Chatman, the junior shoulders his team's scoring burden on a nightly basis, but, just like anyone else, Robinson has his off days. Instead of shooting his way out of a slump like Bowman has tried to do in the past, Robinson takes the ball to the rack, because—as evidenced by Wednesday's game—all it takes is a few shots to get him going.

The top 10 best-read stories on Prolific North in 2014
We've published thousands of stories this year, but which have proven the most popular with our readers?
Here we count down the top 10:
10. Judge Rinder films at MediaCityUK for ITV Daytime
Another week, and another series confirmed for MediaCityUK. This one stars real-life British barrister, Judge Rob Rinder, and is a fairly blatant attempt to mimic the Judge Judy format that has worked so well Stateside.
9. Trailer for Phenomenal TV's This Is Liverpool panned as "horrible"
"Horrible. Meaningless, cultureless, vacuous, aggressive, tasteless" was the less-than flattering review given by one punter to online reality show This Is Liverpool.
Phenomenal Pictures went on to make a 22-minute pilot episode - but demand for a full series in the nine months appears to have been on the low side.
8. Beccy Meehan to co-present BBC North West Tonight
This story actually went live on the site in our very first week back in January 2013 - but owing to the vagaries of the Google search algorithm and Meehan's own popularity, it continues to be found and read.
Meehan will be returning next year to once again co-host the Prolific North Awards.
7. Filming starts in Salford on CBeebies' Muppet show The Furchester Hotel
The combination of Cookie Monster, Elmo and a studio in Salford proved irresistible back in February.
There were some impressive numbers involved - 70 cast and crew, a 700 sq m space at dock 10 and 170 puppets - and it finally began broadcasting on CBBC in September.
6. Online Ventures Limited in voluntary arrangement with creditors
The winding down of Online Ventures Limited proved a well-read story back in February. But fear not, chief executive Paul Yates assured us, this was a separate issue to OVG Ltd, which continues to go "from strength to strength".
5. Morrisons to introduce loyalty card and "more focussed comms" after £176m loss
It's been something of a stinker of a year for the Bradford-based retailer, with poor trading figures following fresh marketing drives with the inevitability of Dec following Ant. Next year can only get better (or worse).
4. Manchester United launches 'world first' in pitch advertising
Football-related stories are - would you believe it - generally very well-read, and there was certainly a big interest in United's "biggest ever" advertising boards. The club clearly thought a lot about them - even Sir Bobby was drafted in to talk about the pitch-side digital platform...
3. MoneySuperMarket employs epic elephant for new ad campaign
The site of Graeme riding through New York on an elephant was billed as Chester-based MoneySuperMarket's most "epic" ad yet - and readers seemed to agree.
As the creative director neatly put it, "We took the badass swagger of Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction, the strut of John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever, a sprinkle of Michael Jackson in Billie Jean, served with the Single Ladies attitude of Beyoncé – and channelled them all into a 15ft African Bull Elephant and a slightly fat bloke from Coventry."
2. BBC's Susanna Reid confirmed as host of new ITV breakfast show Good Morning Britain
The lure of a juicier salary and a commute that didn't involve the M6 or a Virgin Pendolino inevitably proved too much for Reid, who left the BBC's MediaCityUK-based Breakfast sofa in March for the unenviable task of reviving ITV's perennially underperforming early-morning slot.
Nine months since the launch of Good Morning Britain, and the BBC stubbornly retains at least twice the audience, and there are rumours in TV land that it might not even see out the winter.
1. Exclusive: Williams & Glyn bank to relaunch with initial £30m comms budget
Our exclusive, in-depth report about the re-emergence of 250-year-old banking brand Williams & Glyn in Manchester takes the prize for our most-read story of the year. 2015 should finally be the year it divests from RBS and launches as a standalone bank.
Chief executive John Maltby was the keynote speaker at the Northern Marketing Awards in October.

Donald Trump Gets Trolled After he Mistakes Rape Accuser E Jean Carroll With Former Wife in Old Photo
By Parwinder Sandhu

Former US President Donald Trump was trolled after he mistook E Jean Carroll, the writer who has accused him of rape, for his ex-wife Marla Maples during a deposition in the case. The revelations were part of excerpts released in US district court on Wednesday.
Trump's Former Wife Was Also Present in the Picture
According to CNBC, the incident took place during a deposition at Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida in October, last year. The picture in question was taken during an NBC event around 1987, reported the outlet.
The picture shows Trump's back as he faced Carroll and her then husband, John Johnson. Ivana Trump, Trump's former wife, is also seen standing in the picture.
Upon showing the picture, Trump mistook Carroll for Marla, his ex-wife. "It's Marla." When lawyer Roberta Kaplan enquired, "You're saying Marla is in this photo?" Trump repointed, "That's Marla, yeah. That's my wife."
It may be recalled that Trump had initially said Carroll was not his type. "She's not my type. She is not a woman I would ever be attracted to," he had said.
Social Media Reacts
The incident triggered a variety of reactions from the social media users. Trump has said E. Jean Carroll wasn't his "type." When shown a photo of Carroll from the 90s, Trump thought it was his ex-wife from that time, Marla Maples.
So much for the not-my-type defense. Trump is in DEEP trouble in this case now," tweeted a user.
"OMG! "That's Marla, yeah," Trump said, when shown a photograph. "That's my wife. The mistake was corrected by a lawyer for the 76-year-old former president. But observers said it could undermine Trump's claim he could not have attacked Carroll because she is not his "type", read another tweet.
"It's interesting that Trump is accused of raping E. Jean Carroll, whom he confused with his second wife, seeing as he was also accused of raping his first wife," expressed a user.
"After claiming that a woman accusing Trump of rape was not his "type," former President Donald Trump confused a photo of E. Jean Carroll for his former spouse. Alzheimer's?" read a tweet.
For years Trump said E. Jean Carroll was not his type. When shown a photograph during his deposition, he said "That's Marla, yeah. That's my wife." It was a photograph of Caroll. Looking at the two women, it's easy to see why Trump was confused.
I believe E. Jean Caroll. pic.twitter.com/EZxaF8ONO6

If you raped someone, I pretty sure you'd remember their face. Trump confusing the Wacko with Marla Maples isn't unbelievable. Also he says Carroll isn't his type, which he proved by divorcing Maples.

"Marla Maples" seems to be a dead ringer for #EJeanCarroll "per" #Trump.
Yet Trump states E. Jean Carroll isn't his type.

Q: Displaying different tables by clicking different buttons I have 3 different table that i want to display using 3 different buttons but i don't know if it's possible using php and sql? I'd been struggling so far but i can't seem to think of the logic.
'tamp_mall', 'tamp1', and 'century_square' are my tables.
My PHP and sql are basic at best, any help will be appreciated.
<form name="type" id="myForm" action="index.php" method="post">
<input type="submit" name="tamp_mall" value="tamp_mall"> ;
<input type="submit" name="tamp1" value="tamp1"> ;
<input type="submit" name="century_square" value="century_square"> ;
</form>

/* Attempt MySQL server connection. Assuming you are running MySQL
server with default setting (user 'root' with no password) */
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "csv_db");
$tmall = "tamp_mall";
$tamp1 = "tamp1";
$square = "century_square";

// Check connection
if ($link === false) {
die("ERROR: Could not connect. " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

// Attempt select query execution
$sql = "SELECT  KEYWORD, COUNT(*) Count_Duplicate
    FROM $square
    GROUP BY KEYWORD
    HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
    ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC
    LIMIT 5";

if ($result = mysqli_query($link, $sql)) {
if (mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
    echo "
";
    echo "
";
    echo "
";

    while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)){
        echo "
";
        echo "" . $row['KEYWORD'] .  "	";
        echo "
";
    }

    echo "
";
    // Close result set
    mysqli_free_result($result);
  } else {
    echo "No records matching your query were found.";
  }
} else {
echo "ERROR: Could not able to execute $sql. " . mysqli_error($link);
}

// Close connection
mysqli_close($link);

A: Create onclick event , inside which you send an AJAX Request to fetch the data of required table on that button and then display the result in table format .
<button class = 'btn1'>B1</button>
<button class = 'btn2'>B1</button>
<button class = 'btn3'>B1</button>

PHP :foo/foo/xyz.php
<?php
$tab= $_POST['data'];
switch($tab){
case 'tab1':
//fetch content of table 1 into an array say $arr
echo json.encode($arr);
break;
case 'tab2':
//fetch content of table 2 into an array say $arr
echo json.encode($arr);
break;
case 'tab3':
//fetch content of table 4 into an array say $arr
echo json.encode($arr);
break;
}
?>

Hope this helps you !

A: Please check below my logic.
PHP:
<?php
/* Attempt MySQL server connection. Assuming you are running MySQL
server with default setting (user 'root' with no password) */
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "csv_db");

$tamp_mallData = getData('tamp_mall', $link);
$tamp1Data = getData('tamp1', $link);
$century_squareData = getData('century_square', $link);

// Check connection
if ($link === false) {
    die("ERROR: Could not connect. " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

//This function return data from db...
function getData($tblName, $link){
    $returnData = array();
    // Attempt select query execution
    $sql = "SELECT  KEYWORD, COUNT(*) Count_Duplicate
        FROM $tblName
        GROUP BY KEYWORD
        HAVING COUNT(*) > 1
        ORDER BY COUNT(*) DESC
        LIMIT 5";

    if ($result = mysqli_query($link, $sql)) {
        if(mysqli_num_rows($result) > 0) {
        while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)){
           $returnData = $row;
        }

        // Close result set
        mysqli_free_result($result);
      } else {
        echo "No records matching your query were found.";
      }
    } else {
        echo "ERROR: Could not able to execute $sql. " . mysqli_error($link);
    }

    return $returnData;
}

// Close connection
mysqli_close($link);

?>

Data from '$tamp_mallData' table comes here

Data from '$tamp1Data' table comes here

Data from '$century_squareData' table comes here

<input type="button"  name="tamp_mall" value="tamp_mall" id="btn_mall" />
<input type="button" name="tamp1" value="tamp1" id="btn_tmp1" />
<input type="button" name="century_square" value="century_square" id="btn_square" />

JS:

I don't want to use AJAX because there is nothing requirement to fire query on button click.

A: Its very simple. In your php file, try something like;
//write connection code here like
/* Attempt MySQL server connection. Assuming you are running MySQL
server with default setting (user 'root' with no password) */
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "root", "", "csv_db");
$tmall = "tamp_mall";
$tamp1 = "tamp1";
$square = "century_square";

// Check connection
if ($link === false) {
die("ERROR: Could not connect. " . mysqli_connect_error());
}

if($_POST["tamp_mall"]){
  //write you code to display from 'tamp_mall' table here
}elseif($_POST["tamp1"]){
  //write you code to display from 'tamp1' table here
}else{
  //write you code to display from 'century_square' table here
}

hope this helps..

Junior Boarding Works for Tween Brains
We all want what's best for our middle schoolers. And that just may be boarding school. Here's why it works for their rapidly developing brains.
Home > Blog > Parents > Why Middle Schoolers' Brains Need Junior Boarding School
Why Middle Schoolers' Brains Need Junior Boarding School
As mysterious as other galaxies and as beautiful as an original Monet, the brains of our tweens often make us scratch our own heads. These quickly maturing creatures are starting to decide what kind of academic life may suit them best. So, what do we know about middle schoolers that may help us set them in the right direction? And is that right direction by way of junior boarding school? It just might be!
Risks and Rewards
Hormonal fluctuations and the burgeoning limbic system are wreaking havoc on the reward centers of tweens' brains. They're more likely to act impulsively and less likely to think critically. Junior boarding environments provide the right amount of structure while also fostering the independence necessary to create responsible young adults.
Indian Mountain School (Lakeville, Connecticut)
Positive Peer Pressure
An obsession with the "in group" is never quite as strong as it is in those early adolescent years. We can't avoid the concept of peer pressure, but we can work to ensure that the influential community is one of acceptable encouragement and support. Highly specialized staff and like-minded students create a safe space for students to celebrate their diversity while sharing their commonalities.
Fay School (Southborough, Massachusetts)
Enriched Extracurriculars
There are a number of reasons you may be considering junior boarding school, and if the incredible access to sports, arts and activities isn't one of them, it should be! It's too early for our young children to devote their hearts and energy to one activity, and junior boarding schools allow them to explore all of their options. Additionally, boarding schools often boast top-caliber extracurricular programs, so if your young teen has identified a talent, they can truly dive into an exceptional learning environment.
Cardigan Mountain School (Canaan, New Hampshire)
A Sense of Citizenship
It's never too early to impart the importance of stewardship to our children. Teenagers are often accused of being lazy or ambivalent, and perhaps we have some evidence to support that perception, but we believe that they'll rise to meet the standards which are set for them. We also believe it may be easier for adults who aren't mom or dad to encourage that kind of citizenship. (It's not your fault, parents! It's their brain's aversion to doing what they're told.) Boarding schools are known for an emphasis on building community, and each student is an integral component of a successful school campus.
Bement School (Deerfield, Massachusetts)
Academics, Obviously
We can all agree that the only thing changing faster than our teenagers' minds are, well, their brains. Entering a rigorous academic curriculum at an early age will set them up for success not just in high school or college, but in all of their future endeavors. At junior boarding school, they'll be surrounded by motivated, bright students and brilliant, supportive educators helping them reach their full potential—and then some.
Hillside School (Marlborough, Massachusetts)
If the age-old adage, "If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you?" is apropos for any group, it's young adults. Putting your tween in a place where you can trust that their futures will be fostered is one way to use that premise to your advantage. After all, learning is contagious.

Immerse yourself in a unique and challenging underground adventure.
Genre: TBC
Publisher: Ripstone
Developer: Nifflas, Green Hill
OVERVIEW Story Presentation Characters Gameplay GAME FEATURES
Run, jump, climb, swing and bounce your way through a compelling and surprising story.
Explore over 1,400 rooms and complete more than 100 missions.
Switch between human and ball form for an unparalleled sense of freedom.
Journey through the depths
Knytt Underground on PlayStation 3 and PlayStation Vita begins long after the human race has become extinct. The planet surface is scorched from a long forgotten disaster, leaving the surviving species of sprites and fairies to retreat underground to rebuild civilization.
Surrounded by the discarded remains of the human race, these tiny creatures have founded their beliefs on the artefacts they have discovered. One of their more infrequent rituals is that every 600 years, six bells must be rung by a sprite from the Sprocket family, or the world will end. And as the ritual comes round once again, it falls to a young girl named Mi to venture through the buried land to find the bells, and save the world.
What is beautiful about Knytt Underground's story is that it acts as a framework for dozens of other small tales that Mi experiences on her journey. Some of these stories require her to help fairies move an avocado up a cliff to feed their village, while others see her stand up to corrupt property developers. Mi doesn't have to undertake any of these quests, although what she sees stays with her and affects the emerging tale.
Going deeper underground
Moving through Knytt Underground's silhouetted and wonderfully designed world feels like walking through an art gallery. Behind each screen sits a different photo that sets the perfect mood for the action, with backgrounds that range from tranquil underwater areas to intimidating darkness. Viewed on the PlayStation Vita system's crisp touchscreen or in High Definition on PlayStation 3, the impactful visuals bring your exploration to incredible life.
The tiny lead character, Mi, adds scale and awe to this world. Flowers tower over her, while other areas see her exploring the remains of human society where massive cogs and gears hang menacingly in the background.
Knytt Underground's music beautifully complements the look and scale of the world. As each environment changes appearance, so do the melodies that accompany them. Moving through areas surrounded by water, you're met by drifting aquatic sounds that create a sense of wonder. Music is used sparingly, switching between intimidating screams to total silence, with only Mi's footfalls showing any sign of life...
Mi and you
Mi is the mute hero of Knytt Underground. Although she is an adventurous young sprite who is destined to save the world, her only real desire is to be able to speak. Heading to the Fairy Fountain, Mi wishes for a voice. The fairies have made a good career giving people the confidence they need to follow their dreams, while pretending it's magic. Mi needs more substantial help however, so fairies Dora and Cillia volunteer to accompany her as her voice.
It's a superb dynamic as either Cillia or Dora can be selected to talk on Mi's behalf. Their conflicting backgrounds reflect Knytt Underground's two primary belief systems: Cillia turns to faith for her answers, while Dora follows the philosophy of the internet, and relies on scientific evidence.
Their beliefs affect how they interact with Knytt Underground's many inhabitants. If Cillia speaks for Mi, the conversation is friendly without addressing the issue, while Dora is frequently rude and confronts the problem. As each develop with Mi on their adventure, the touching dialogue perfectly represents the flaws in both beliefs, creating a thoughtful way to engage this with fascinating world.
One small jump for Mi
Knytt Underground is a platform game in which you explore each screen to find new challenges and people to meet. Spanning more than 1,000 rooms spread across three chapters, the key to finding every secret and quest is to master the game's two main mechanics, climbing and bouncing.
Introduced in the first chapter, climbing is easy to grasp. Mi can shimmy up vertical surfaces and, by jumping from one wall to the next, she can navigate any troubling overhangs that block her path. It doesn't take long to get a firm grip on the climbing, and by the end of the chapter even the trickier high altitude puzzles start to fall into place.
Chapter two switches the action to a ball-like creature called Bob. Unlike Mi, all Bob can do is bounce. Learning to control the speed and distance of these bounces is tricky yet hilariously enjoyable, as uneven ground can result in the ball shooting off in all manner of unexpected directions.
In the final chapter these powers come together, with Mi able to turn into a ball at the touch of a button. This allows for some fascinating puzzles that can span several screens. There is a real tension to shimmying up a wall as Mi, before leaping off and turning into a ball to try and bounce off the top of a thin column to reach a platform three screens away. Can you master these techniques in this unique underground adventure?

The monument to Prince Albert in Kensington Gardens, London, is one of the finest and most elaborate to be found anywhere in the country, let alone London. It is a splendid piece of Victoriana that is as much a memorial to the spirit of that age as it is of the Prince himself. It complements the nearby Royal Albert Hall, built at around the same time, towards which the statue of Prince Albert faces. Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha was the husband of Queen Victoria. They married in 1840 but Albert died of typhoid in 1861 at the age of only 42. Perhaps unusually for an arranged royal marriage, the couple were very much in love with each other from the start and Victoria felt his loss very deeply indeed. When the time came to propose a permanent memorial to him, it was clear that no expense would be spared, with the actual cost of £120,000 being met by public subscription. Likewise, the recent restoration of the Albert Memorial to its original state, after more than a century of exposure to the elements, has been an expensive business. More than eleven million pounds were spent on an 8-year project that ended with the Memorial's unveiling in 1998. At the heart of the memorial is a seated statue of Prince Albert, three times life size. He is dressed as a Knight of the Garter and he holds a catalogue of the 1851 Great Exhibition of which he was a prime instigator and organiser. The whole memorial reflects the ethos of that Exhibition (which took place in Hyde Park, very close to the site of the Memorial) and illustrates Albert's wide-ranging interests. The statue was the work of John Foley, who was commissioned personally by Queen Victoria. Although the Memorial was, as mentioned above, funded by public subscription, Victoria paid for the actual statue herself. A model of the statue was first placed on its plinth in 1870, but the full gilt-bronze version only appeared in 1875, three years after the Memorial was opened. It was painted black at some time before the First World War, probably to mask the pitting of the gold by atmospheric pollution, but the recent restoration included a full coating of gold leaf. However, the Memorial is far more than the statue of Prince Albert. It was designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott and takes the form of a "ciborium" or canopy that acts as a roof to the statue – a very upmarket gazebo, one might say. Scott was a leading exponent of the Gothic Revival – he designed St Pancras Station for example – and it is no surprise that the Memorial has many Gothic features, including church-like composite pillars, pointed arches and an emphasis on height – the cross at the top is 176 feet above ground level. One can spend a long time taking in everything that the Memorial has to offer. For example, below the plinth on which the statue rests is a frieze, on all four sides, that depicts 169 practitioners in the arts. The south side features musicians and poets, on the east side are painters, to the north are architects and on the west side are sculptors. On the corners of the canopy base are sculptural groups representing Agriculture, Commerce, Engineering and Manufacture, and further out, on the corners of the wider platform, are groups to represent the continents of Asia, Africa, America and Europe – which is a bit tough on Australia! Further up the canopy are mosaics that feature Poetry, Painting, Architecture and Sculpture, and there are statues to represent the practical arts and sciences, and the cardinal and theological virtues. The friezes and sculptures were created by a number of different artists. Around the canopy are inscribed the words: "Queen Victoria And Her People To The Memory Of Albert Prince Consort As A Tribute Of Their Gratitude For A Life Devoted to the Public Good". All in all, one can spend a considerable time looking at everything that the Albert Memorial has to offer – it is a veritable museum of sculpture all on its own. However, in order to do so one should take a pair of binoculars, not only to see the features high up on the structure but because there is no public access closer than the outermost "continent" sculptures. Highly ornate railings keep people at bay, which is understandable given that some of them might be tempted to scrape the gold off Albert's statue!

AFEA is not a franchise. AFEA helps edupreneurs who want to create something of their own and need guidance on achieving it with minimized obstacles. Owning a franchise has its benefits, and with it comes certain restrictions and less independence than running your own business. AFEA's partnership offers you the best of both worlds. You have the flexibility of setting up a tuition centre of your own brand, and still rely on proven expertise that generates million-dollar revenue annually.
Create your very own brand name and build it into a chain of successful tuition centres by being a partner of AFEA.
What is AFEA's business model?
We view you as a partner, by not putting undue stress on your business capital and by walking with you step by step towards realizing your vision. AFEA provides you with all the necessary business expertise with an education perspective to build a unique and successful tuition business and charges a Partnership Fee, with a progressive instalment scheme.
Why is AFEA doing this?
AFEA is founded by Mr. Anthony Fok, a tutor renowned for his teaching efficacy and business acumen. Anthony runs JC Economics Education Centre, a successful tuition centre that achieves million-dollar revenue annually with his effective teaching and business acumen. Numerous well-established news media such as British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Consumer News and Business Channel (CNBC), The Straits Times and Mediacorp have interviewed Anthony on his methods for success. Parents have even offered him 5-digit monetary rewards to help their children achieve an "A" grade in Economics.
How does a partnership with AFEA help you?
You will quickly gain access to Anthony's business methods and proprietary materials which are the foundations of business building and effective teaching. You will not only be guided by AFEA, but you will also gain the expertise of Curriculum Planning and Development (Singapore), or CPD. CPD is an affiliate company of AFEA and is helmed by a team of education and business experts. With over 15 years of experience in the education sector, the team comprises of university professors, former National Institute of Education (NIE) lecturers and ex-Ministry of Education (MOE) officers who produce high-quality education materials.
Through the business guidance of AFEA and support of the high-quality teaching materials from CPD, this partnership steers you towards success in the education industry.
The partnership comprises all the elements necessary to build your dream tuition centre . We start all successful partnership correctly from the beginning with a crucial get-to-know-you session. This session ensures there will be mutual understanding, empathy and trust. Once this camaraderie is achieved, a structured lesson plan and consultation will ensue to aid you in the making of sound business decisions. AFEA will teach you the business know-how; assist you in the application of necessary government licenses; mentor you in the effective promotion of your centre and provide you with the teaching materials.
Concurrently, AFEA will also assist you with the physical set up of the centre. Once your physical centre is ready, AFEA will ease you into the business and provide you with the education materials from CPD. You will be ready for the challenge and excitement of operating your very own tuition centre.
How long is this partnership / Is this a partnership in perpetuity?
AFEA values its partners and enjoys a long and fulfilling journey with every partner. The initial 2 years of partnership are the most important where crucial expertise and content will be imparted. These first 2 years are essentially the set-up and stabilization phase. A viable business is one that constantly evolves and adapts to the changing environment and market conditions. AFEA will ensure that you plan ahead to ensure business viability. By the end of the contract, you may already be considering expansion in a variety of ways like teaching more subjects or opening more tuition centres. AFEA will be there to assist you in achieving your dream.
AFEA is confident that you will choose to renew the contract for various reasons such as business expansion, continued access to the high-quality customized materials and the impeccably rendered support.
What makes a successful partner?
The education business is similar to other businesses. Possession of qualities such as passion, perseverance and diligence are crucial. One difference that separates this industry from others is the immense impact your teaching will have on students and their future. The partner must love children and be aware that students are Singapore's future pillars of support and economic growth. He must want to nurture them and believe in making a difference. The partner must be ready to take on challenges and be committed to realizing his vision . AFEA will provide all the necessary support for this worthwhile enterprise.
A good location is one that is prominent and situated in a high traffic area. Depending on the partner's geographical preference, AFEA will assess the locale and recommend available venues with good accessibility and visibility. Like in the Art of War, to know and exploit the terrain requires finesse which AFEA will provide you with. There may be several considerations and some constraints may be beyond control. Venues and the rental market can be very dynamic due to demand and supply. AFEA will help you strategize the best ways to attract students and increase the visibility of your tuition centre.
Your clientele will be varied because students seek help for various reasons. Some want to ensure they achieve the very best through every means available. Some need extra coaching to bolster their confidence. AFEA will provide mentorship in building rapport with students and their parents.
From a business perspective, there are over 30,000 new Primary One students entering school each year. This means a constant influx of new students that will benefit from your tuition centre, on top of your existing students who will progress to the next academic level. AFEA will guide you in reaching out to new students effectively.

Giving The Qur'an with Translation to Non-Muslims?
5 Comments on Giving The Qur'an with Translation to Non-Muslims?
Al-Qur'an is the book of guidance for all Muslims regardless of time. According to the majority of the Islamic scholars, it is obligatory for a Muslim to be in a pure state and not in hadath (minor or major impure) before he can hold or carry the mushaf. Allah states (which means):
"None touch it except the purified." [Al-Qur'an, Surah al-Waqi'ah, verse 79]
This prohibition also applies to the non-Muslims through qiyas (analogy). To protect the honor of the Qur'an, the earlier fuqaha agreed to forbid the selling of the Qur'an mushaf to the non-Muslims. The restriction is in the form of prohibition, while scholars in mazhab Hanafi consider the restriction to be makruh (undesirable) [Refer al-Mausu`ah al-Fiqhiyyah al-Kuwaitiyyah, 9/230]. Furthermore, in mazhab al-Syafie, the strongest opinion is it is undesirable (makruh) to buy or sell the mushaf, even if the transaction is for the cost of rent and printing to non-Muslims [Refer al-Majmu' Syarh al-Muhazzab, 9/252].
The same applies to the issue of ownership. The scholars forbid a Muslim from buying the Qur'an mushaf for a non-Muslim. According to most of the scholars, the trade is invalid, while in mazhab Syafie, there are two opinions. The strongest opinion said that it is invalid, while the second opinion states that the trade is valid, but the ownership of the Qur'an is automatically absolved from the non-Muslim [Refer al-Tibyan fi Adab Hamalah al-Qur'an, 113]. Moreover, it is prohibited to gift non-Muslim with the Qur'an or leave the Qur'an to non-Muslim (through a will) [Refer al-Mughni, 104/6].
This shows how honored the Qur'an is, and the scholars put such effort in maintaining and protecting the Qur'an's honor, as has been agreed among them, fulfilling the obligation of dignifying al-Qur'an, sanctifying and protecting it [Refer al-Tibyan fi Adab Hamalah al-Qur'an, 164].
The Ruling for Gifting al-Qur'an with Translation to Non-Muslims
In this issue, there are two opinions from Islamic scholars:
The opinion that prohibits it;
The opinion that ruled it permissible with conditions
The Opinion that Prohibits It
They use qiyas to the prohibition of giving ownership of the mushaf to non-Muslims. They referred to a hadith in al-Sahihain (which means):
"From Abdullah bin Umar RA, The Messenger of Allah forbade that one should travel to the land of the enemy taking the Qur'an with him." [Narrated in Sahih al-Bukhari (2990) and Sahih Muslim (1896)]
Imam al-Nawawi said, there is a prohibition of traveling with the Qur'an to a country of disbelievers (non-Muslims), for the reason stated in the narration, which is in fear that the enemy would insult al-Qur'an, thus tarnishing the sanctity of the Qur'an. If such fear is absent, for example, the entry of Muslims soldiers inside a non-Muslim territory, where the Muslims are dominating the non-Muslims, then the makruh and prohibition ruling are no longer applicable. This is supported by Abu Hanifah, al-Bukhari and others. However, Imam Malik and some of our ashab (al-Syafi'iyyah scholars) hold the opinion that it is a total prohibition (even without reason) [Refer al-Minhaj Syarh Sahih Muslim, 13/13].
Syeikh Wahbah al-Zuhaili said in his book (which means):
"It is prohibited to sell the Qur'an to Muslims for non-Muslim or to non-Muslim, for honouring the Qur'an is obligatory. By selling the Qur'an, it would remove its honour or remove the dignity of the Qur'an. Due to this, the disbelievers (non-Muslims) should be prevented from having an ownership of the Qur'an, and it should be prevented early on." [Refer Fiqh al-Islami Wa Adillatuh, 3363/5]
This statement is supported by a remark in Mausu'ah al-Fiqh al-Islami (which means):
"It is prohibited to sell or gift the Qur'an to non-Muslim, in fear that the Qur'an would be degraded or insulted, or it would dishonour the Qur'an itself." [Refer Mausu'ah al-Fiqh al-Islami, 433/3]
The same is stated in fiqh books. Imam al-Nawawi said (which means):
"Our ashab said, the beginning of the ruling from fiqh books, where there is athar salaf (narration and composition from early scholars) taking the ruling (of trade) for mushaf, according to a strong opinion and Imam Mawardi from ashab that issued a syaz (isolated) opinion that said, the buying and selling of hadith and fiqh books to non-Muslims is permissible." [Refer al-Majmu` Syarh al-Muhazzab, 9/355]
Thus, Qur'anic tafsir (the Qur'an with translation or commentaries) is also one of the books with the same standing as Syari'ah books that are honored and protected from the dangers of degradation if they fall into the non-Muslim hands.
Islamic scholars are inclined towards this opinion, with the reason that the 'illah (ratio legis) for the prohibition may be out of fear that a degradation towards the Qur'an may happen at the hand of the non-Muslims. Hence, when the 'illah is absent, then the ruling becomes permissible. This is the opinion of the minority of the scholars especially contemporary scholars, such as Syeikh Muhammad al-Arifi, a member of Rabitah al-'Alam al-Islami. [Refers http://www.alittihad.ae/details.php?id=141054&y=2007 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsahVW3L6dw]
Meanwhile, some scholars do not consider a copy of a book containing the verses of the Qur'an as a Qur'anic mushaf, with several conditions, thus the prohibition is not applicable for tafsir books and translations. Their arguments are:
1. Al-Qur'an with translation is not a mushaf for it contains the meanings of the verses.
This is as what has been said by al-Imam al-Nawawi in his book al-Majmu' [See Al-Majmu' Syarh al-Muhazzab, 2/69) (which means):
"If the tafsir content exceeds the Qur'anic verses- and this is usually the case- then there are several opinions and the strongest opinion is that it is not prohibited (to touch or carry it) for it is not considered as a mushaf."
The same is mentioned by al-Imam al-Nawawi in Raudhah al-Tolibin wa 'Umdah al-Muftiin (1/80) and Syeikh al-Islam Zakaria al-Ansari in his book Asna al-Matolib fi Syarh Raudh al-Tolib (1/61).
From the words of Imam al-Nawawi above, we understand that Qur'anic tafsir (Qur'anic commentary) or Qur'anic translation is not considered as mushaf and mushaf rulings are not applicable to them.
2. People in hadath (minor or major impure) is permitted to touch al-Qur'an with translation or Qur'anic tafsir
The majority of scholars said that it is permissible to touch, carry or review Qur'anic tafsir, even when it contains the verses of the Qur'an, while one is in the junub state. This is due to the fact that tafsir is meant as to understand the meanings of al-Qur'an and not to recite the verses of the Qur'an. Thus, the ruling of the Qur'an does not apply to it.
This is the opinion of mazhab Maliki and Hanbali. It is mentioned in Syarh Mukhtasar Khalil by al-Imam al-Kharasyi al-Maliki (which means):
"It is permissible for them (in hadath) to touch tafsir."
The same is stated by al-Imam Ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi in al-Mughni (1/109) (which means):
"And it is permissible to touch books of tafsir or fiqh, brochures or others, if they contain the verses of Allah, referring to a prophetic evidence, where the Prophet wrote a letter to the king of Rome where the letter contains the verses of the Qur'an, for it is not considered as mushaf and the prohibition is not applicable."
However, in mazhab Syafie, it is prohibited to touch tafsir if the verses of the Qur'an are more than the tafsir. If the tafsir is more than the verses of the Qur'an, then it is permissible.
Which means: "As for the translation of the Qur'an to other languages (other than Arabic), it is considered as a type of tafsir, as stated by scholars of mazhab Maliki. Thus, it is permissible for a person in hadath to touch it, according to those that hold the opinion that does not prohibit the touching of tafsir books." [Refer al-Mausu'ah al-Fiqhiyyah al-Kuwaitiyyah, 10/38]
This indicates that if someone in hadath is permitted to touch and carry Qur'anic tafsir on the condition that the tafsir contents exceed the verses of the Qur'an, then non-Muslims are also permitted to touch and carry Qur'anic tafsir or its translation if the conditions are fulfilled.
3. The sanctioning of broadcasting the Qur'an to non-Muslims to get them interested in Islam
This is in accordance with a statement of Allah (which means):
"And if any one of the polytheists seeks your protection, then grant him protection so that he may hear the words of Allah. Then deliver him to his place of safety. That is because they are a people who do not know." [Al-Quran, Surah al-Taubah, verse 6]
Imam al-Syafie when commenting on this verse said, when a non-Muslim came and want to know about Islam, then it is the obligation of the leader to give him protection and let him hear the verses of Allah and inviting him to Islam in the hopes that Allah would guide him to embrace Islam [Refer Tafsir Imam al-Syafie, 903-904/2]
Based on the above discussion, we are inclined towards the second opinion that it is permissible for a Muslim to give the copy of Qur'an translation or tafsir, to non-Muslims, provided that he believes that the non-Muslim will not degrade or dishonor the Qur'an. This is due to the hadith that only prohibits the giving of mushaf to the enemy of Islam because they will insult and tarnish the purity and sanctity of the Qur'an. If it is believed they will not dishonor it, then according to some scholars it is permissible because the 'illah of the law of the danger of insult or dishonor has disappeared.
Whereas according to most scholars, it is permissible to provide a copy containing Qur'anic verses and other words such as interpretations and others which is more than Qur'anic verses, so that they are no longer considered mushaf al-Qur'an. Nevertheless, since the copy still needs to be glorified because it contains the knowledge of Syari'ah, then it should not be given to disbelievers or non-Muslims that is feared could damage and insult it. As for non-Muslims who are believed to respect and maintain its honor, such as community leaders, schools, libraries, and the like, it is permissible to give the Qur'an and its translation.

Q: Weird date in post request when sending a date before 1927 I've noticed a very strange behavior for POST requests - when I send, for example, 01-01-1928, everything is fine, however, when I send 01-01-1926, I get a weird date in the payload of the POST request:

Instead of 00:00:00 I get 22:23:26.
Here is a sandbox with a date before 1927 (demonstrates the issue):

Here is a sandbox with a date after 1927 (everything is as expected):

I can't find anything about this online. What in the world is this?
By the way - Axios is used in the sandbox.
