Year after dangerous year, the backslidden nation of Judah had turned a deaf ear to the warnings of God. His judgment finally fell. In 605 BC Nebuchadnezzar, the undisputed most powerful ruler of the ancient world conquered Judah. He crushed the nation, orphaned its young people, cut them off from their homes and families and put an entire generation of teenagers under the power of an alien culture. Everything they ever knew and loved was swept away. Devotion to the true God all but vanished as the young of Judah were introduced to a civilization filled with the most astonishing array of beauty, technology and spiritual options the world had ever seen. Few past commitments survived. Babylon, the greatest empire in human history, totally took over the hearts, minds, lives and worship of an entire generation. Nebuchadnezzar was the chief ruler in history to dominate the whole known world. He took the cream of every nation he conquered and assimilated them into the Babylonian civil service. He chose the very best of Judah’s youth to utilize in his service and to contribute their gifts, talents and powers to the empire of Babylon. They had to be “without defect.” Once selected, they were entered into a program of intensive re-education with thorough grounding in the language, literature and life-style of the ruling world power. Nothing was permitted to distract them from their studies. Their names were changed to include the name of a pagan deity. Their very purpose, identity and destiny was to be swallowed up by the power of Babylon. They were even to forget they were Jews; and especially that they were originally chosen to be God’s servants. Yet astonishingly a small number stood up for God. Almost alone in the days of the Babylonian exile this covenantal remnant was represented by just four teenagers. Wonders of the ancient world, they were Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah. Daniel was about 14 when he was taken away from his home and forcibly marched to a strange land. He was subjected to strong indoctrinations and surrounded by powerful and jealous enemies who plotted against his life. He was exposed to great temptation. Yet he not only survived three different governments, but was considered so significant and irreplaceable he continued to serve in each one in exactly the same position of power and responsibility. Daniel and his three friends had to face their “Red Dawn” without warning. The rest of their lives demonstrate the real truth about godliness; true spirituality never depends on things being easy. What happened to Daniel has happened again in your time. The pressures they faced and the program they were put on is here again. Babylon the ancient city is gone. (Isa. 13:19-22; Jer. 51:37-58) Babylon, the spiritual power of the world never left. (Rev. 17:1-5) Young people on the edge of the 21st century have to deal with Babylon today. You face the same choices Daniel and his three friends had to face. Babylon is alive, dangerous and dominant in the ruling civilizations of our century. Daniel’s decision to obey God in all things could only have one practical consequence; the utter highest and best he was capable of achieving. At the end of the days among them all were found “none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah” and in all matters of wisdom and understanding ... he found them ten times better “ (Daniel 1:18-20) If Daniel had no grace or courage to refuse the royal provision associated with idolatry, he never would have had the power to stand firm in the lions den, nor his three friends survived the threat of the fiery furnace. Daniel’s band put God first. They dared believe His ways were not only excellent, but extraordinary. They took the kings own goals and turned them into an adventure in showing their world the glory of God. He had in turn

I thought I understood it, or most of it, when I studied it in Montessori elementary-level training in Bergamo, Italy. Yet since then, hardly a year has gone by that I haven’t learned something new about Cosmic Education. I am happy to say that I am still learning. It wasn’t until the 1990s that I began to understand that the cosmic program was much greater than what I’d first seen at the elementary level. I began to try to view the early childhood (primary) program as well as the adolescent program through a cosmic lens, and I began to see the many features of the early childhood classroom that are, in fact, cosmic in nature.

  • Inside Life Story Narratives from Latina Mothers of Mexican Descent
    Cosas Llevadas: Inside Life Story Narratives from Latina Mothers of Mexican Descent with High Academic Accomplishment by Anne M. Mulligan A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved November 2018 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Kathryn Nakagawa, Chair Elsie Moore Angela Arzubiaga Elizabeth Blue Swadener ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY December 2018 ABSTRACT The field of developmental psychology often underrepresents Latinx individuals within their corpus of published scholarship. In the area of lifespan identity development this is particularly evident from the scarcity of Latinx life story narratives. In addition, Latinx family parenting styles is an underdeveloped area of scholarship. At the same time, a robust literature base demonstrates that for youth from non-dominant culture families, ethnic racial identity can increase measures of adaptive well-being and academic achievement. Because academic achievement for Latinx students does not proportionately reach levels of educational success as compared to white students, research investigating foundations of ethnic racial identity within Latinx families is warranted. This investigation extends parenting style literature within the field of developmental psychology by exploring inter-generational practices of Latinx families. Participants within this study include mothers of Mexican descent who have earned at least one Master's degree, a level of high academic achievement attained by only 10 percent of the adults within the U.S. Each Latina mother, ranging in age from 36 to 63 years, participated in two or more semi-structured interviews. Protocols were based on McAdams's life story interview; McAdams's life story narrative analysis, based upon Erikson's lifespan theory of identity development, provided a model of analysis.

  • “It Would Just Kill Me to Marry Mary Todd”: Courtship and Marriage
    Chapter Six “It Would Just Kill Me to Marry Mary Todd”: Courtship and Marriage (1840-1842) In 1842, Lincoln married Mary Todd, a woman who was to make his domestic life “a burning, scorching hell,” as “terrible as death and as gloomy as the grave,” according to one who knew him well.1 COURTING MARY OWENS Lincoln’s courtship of Mary Todd is poorly documented, but indirect light on it is shed by his earlier, well-documented romance with Mary S. Owens. Born in Kentucky a few months before Lincoln, Mary Owens received a good education at the home of her wealthy father, a planter in Green County.2 She “was very different from Anne Rutledge.” Not only was she older, bigger, better-educated, and raised “in the most refined society,” she also “dressed much finer than any of the ladies who lived about New 1 William H. Herndon, quoted in Michael Burlingame, The Inner World of Abraham Lincoln (Urbana: University of Illinois Press, 1994), 268. 2 Nathaniel Owens, out “of his deep concern for the education of his children . maintained a private school in his pretentious plantation home, to which came instructors from Transylvania University, Ky., to give instruction to his children and those of his neighbors.” On his 5000-acre plantation he grew cotton and tobacco, which he farmed with the help of two dozen slaves.

Allen, Owens “was a farmer of good education for the times, and of a high order of native intellect.

  • Storey: Factor X: Well-Being As a Key Component of Next Generation Green Buildings
    FACTOR X, WELL-BEING AS A KEY COMPONENT OF NEXT GENERATION GREEN BUILDINGS John B Storey and Maibritt Pedersen Zari, Centre for Building Performance Research, School of Architecture, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand Abstract Any paradigm for next generation of green buildings must include user well-being and satisfaction as primary tenets. This is not easy to achieve, but unless we do incorporate these parameters, built outcomes are unlikely to be sustainable, even if they are resource efficient. This paper defines well-being as a holistic physical, psychological and metaphysical phenomenon, describes the benefits of well-being design and discusses the elements that are considered to be most influential in enhancing user’s holistic physiological and psychological well-being. It presents an overview of scientific research currently being undertaken in this area. Such research while in its infancy tends to validate the current intuitive design stance taken by many successful architects relative to designing for well-being and suggests that we could beneficially incorporate many of these well-being connected ideas into paradigm for next generation green buildings. It is concluded that if integrated with sustainable technologies, well-being enhancement factors can work synergistically, in our building designs, to enhance user happiness and satisfaction, improve user productivity, health, morale and vitality and are likely to make resource efficient architecture much more appealing to a wide constituency of building users than is currently the case. A more tentative assertion is that architecture that enhances people’s feeling of well-being could be an agent for positive change in relation to work ethics and values, community spirit and interpersonal relationships.

    NINTH EUROSEAS CONFERENCE UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD 16-18 AUGUST 2017 1 DAY ONE: 16.08.2017 ~SESSION 1: 9:00 AM-10:30 AM~ Room No 6 A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE ON MALARIA AND SOUTHEAST ASIAN ARMED CONFLICTS Organizer: Atsuko Naono (University of Oxford) Panel abstract: Malaria has been one of the world’s most challenging health problems. Southeast Asia’s tropical climate predisposes the region to malaria and recent anti-malaria drug-resistant strains of Malaria reported from the Greater Mekong Sub-region have raised the importance of the region further. Historians have also identified Malaria as one of the major influences on the experience of wars in the region including WWII, Cold War, and the Vietnam War, and numerous civil wars. While the Malaria experience in these conflicts has been understood on a case by case basis, there has been no general examination of the relationship between war and Malaria across the region. This panel aims to analyze the various ways in which malaria has impacted wars in the region, including wartime anti-malarial operations, the vital strength of the military, and malaria drugs’ pharmaceutical interests, with a view toward developing a regional picture that will lend itself to comparative discussions with other regions. Searching for Alternative Malaria Strategies during the Cold War: Vietnamese Theater, 1965-1975 Annick Guénel (CNRS-EHESS) The US-Vietnam war not only triggered a regional resurgence of malaria because of massive population displacements. It was also an important step towards the failure, and the final withdrawal, of the Global Malaria Eradication Programme launched by the WHO in 1955, following promising technological advances in vector and parasite control.
