    Plain Talk About Childhood Immunization

    PLAIN TALK ABOUT CHILDHOOD IMMUNIZATION This 2018 edition was developed and edited by the following public and private organizations: Washington State Department of Health Immunization Action Coalition of Washington (WithinReach) Public Health – Seattle & King County Snohomish Health District Spokane Regional Health District This publication was made possible, in part, by cooperative agreement #IP000762 from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. For persons with disabilities, this document is available on request in other formats. To submit a request, please call 1-800-525-0127 (TDD/TTY call 711). A MESSAGE TO PARENTS Dear Parents: Thank you for your interest in learning more about immunizations. As parents, we make important decisions that affect our children. Immunizing your child is one of these decisions. We all want to make good choices and do what’s best for our children. As a community, we must protect our own health and work together to protect each other’s health. Choosing to immunize is one of the most important decisions you can make to protect yourself, your children, your family, and the community from diseases that vaccines prevent. These diseases still occur in our communities. In 2012, Washington State had an epidemic of whooping cough, with more cases than we’ve had since the 1940s. Washington also had a mumps outbreak in 2016-2017 and measles outbreaks in 2008, 2014, and 2015, including one death in 2015. We want parents to make informed health decisions based on accurate information. There is an overwhelming amount of vaccine-related material out there and we know that parents, healthcare professionals, school nurses, child care providers, and others want information that is accurate, trustworthy, and clear.

    Project # J0101 Category: Animal Biology - Jr Student: Amy Figueroa Grade: 8 G: F School: South Gate Middle School Title: Anemon-EATS My question is, "How can temperature change affect the eating habits of Actiniaria?" In my experiment, I feed Actiniaria in different seawater temperatures. The temperatures were 7,13, and 22 degrees Celsius. My hypothesis is: If the water temperature is lower than 13°C, the anemones will consume more to maintain their body temperatures. If my hypothesis is supported, this will emphasize the importance of protecting the planet. Global warming is not just warming the Earth but it is causing the Earth to experience extreme temperatures. There is a higher chance of consuming plastic with harmful chemicals that were not intended for digesting if they eat more. With higher water temperatures, body temperatures will also rise, meaning anemones will eat less. The independent variables of my experiment are the water temperatures. The dependent factors are my recorded data points which is how long it takes for them to react to food. All throughout my experiment, I kept the food and timer the same so I could get reliable data. I fed and timed them 50 different times in each water treatment. I saw the anemones react quicker in lower temperatures. This supports my hypothesis. A factor that could have affected my results was that some anemones might have not been hungry. I also observed the anemones had a delayed reaction in the warmest temperature. My experiment can be expanded in many ways but this will provide so much information on the effect of temperature change on the eating habits of Actiniaria.
  • Misperceptions As Political Conflict: Using Schattschneider’S Conflict Theory to Understand Rumor Dynamics

    Misperceptions As Political Conflict: Using Schattschneider’S Conflict Theory to Understand Rumor Dynamics

    International Journal of Communication 10(2016), 2596–2615 1932–8036/20160005 Misperceptions as Political Conflict: Using Schattschneider’s Conflict Theory to Understand Rumor Dynamics JILL A. EDY ERIN E. RISLEY-BAIRD University of Oklahoma, USA Publicly confronting political misperceptions enacts political conflict, generating communicative forms of public resistance as well as psychological resistance. Applying Schattschneider’s classic model of interest group political conflict to communication by those who publicly resisted messages debunking the misperception that vaccinations can cause autism offers insight into how misperceptions evolve and survive in public discourse. It also extends the model, establishing its relevance for contemporary forms of political conflict. Faced with debunking, believers socialize conflict, inviting audiences to join the struggle on their side, and alter the debate’s terms such that discussion escapes control by authorities. The resulting political debate is a moving target with changing standards of evidence. Consequently, confronting political misperceptions may generate activism that encourages misperceptions to evolve and spread. Keywords: political misperceptions, rumors, Schattschneider, public health, vaccines, Internet The language used to talk about false beliefs indicates the aspect of the phenomenon to which attention is drawn. The term misperception emphasizes the psychological characteristics of belief in the untruth, such as motivated reasoning. Political psychologists and political communication scholars alike ask what sorts of messages might correct false beliefs and how such messages are processed by receivers. Misperception believers are conceptualized much as voters or audiences are—as consumers of messages. Although the essential difference between a misperception and a rumor is that rumors are sometimes true while misperceptions are always false,1 the language of rumors is largely lost in Jill A.

Missing from the In­ novator was a typewriter, a camera which was the personal property of a student, a light meter, and a tape recorder. Taken from Paul Schranz's office was $1,400.00 worth of cameras and lighting systems. Strangely enough the robbers did not bother personal property of both professorBracken and professor Schranz. Various items were taken from the Dean of CCS office, including a clock. The robbery is not covered by insurance because according to Richard Strutters of the Business Office, "The state does not allow us to insure equipment." The items taken will have to be replaced from the budget somewhere and this willtake some time." Meanwhile the robberyhas hurt the students because they no longer have these items to learn from. A work-study job no longer exists becauseof damage to a dark room where a student worked.

  • WALDEN, and on the DUTY of CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE by Henry

    WALDEN, and on the DUTY of CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE by Henry

    WALDEN, and ON THE DUTY OF CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE By Henry David Thoreau Walden Economy When I wrote the following pages, or rather the bulk of them, I lived alone, in the woods, a mile from any neighbor, in a house which I had built myself, on the shore of Walden Pond, in Concord, Massachusetts, and earned my living by the labor of my hands only. I lived there two years and two months. At present I am a sojourner in civilized life again. I should not obtrude my affairs so much on the notice of my readers if very particular inquiries had not been made by my townsmen concerning my mode of life, which some would call impertinent, though they do not appear to me at all impertinent, but, considering the circumstances, very natural and pertinent. Some have asked what I got to eat; if I did not feel lonesome; if I was not afraid; and the like. Others have been curious to learn what portion of my income I devoted to charitable purposes; and some, who have large families, how many poor children I maintained. I will therefore ask those of my readers who feel no particular interest in me to pardon me if I undertake to answer some of these questions in this book. In most books, the I, or first person, is omitted; in this it will be retained; that, in respect to egotism, is the main difference. We commonly do not remember that it is, after all, always the first person that is speaking. I should not talk so much about myself if there were anybody else whom I knew as well.
