Well, one, I’m not for echo chambers most of my friends are liberals and centrists even though I’m neither, and as anti-religious as I am, one of my best friends is an orthodox Christian, and we’ve been friends for almost 25 years now, since we were 6. He does cut content, easter eggs, full playthroughs, mod reviews, in-depth character analysis, quest walkthroughs, and his discussions about the social and philosophical questions in video games are very entertaining, thought provoking, and just generally agreeable he just seems like a nice guy. His content is just good, his voice is really nice to listen to, and his explorations of the Fallout games and other games are extensive and excellent. With over 1.2 million subscribers, weekly Twitch streams, a Patreon, a Discord, online merchandise, and over a third of a billion total video views, Oxhorn is pretty popular for a reason. Fallout fanatic Oxhorn joined Youtube on October 26th, 2011, and in those nearly 8 years he’s built a solid, successful channel with great production value.

The family wants to be compensated for Henrietta’s impact on the medical community. The movie made it seem like the family had been so scarred by all the corruption and invasiveness surrounding their family and Henrietta’s cells that they were all just trying to move on, which really isn’t the case. The family is fighting for compensation, led by Lawrence That’s the first time we heard about it.” Image: HBO 8. ![]() In an interview with Rolling Stone in 1976, her son Lawrence explained the family knew nothing about Henrietta’s impact on the medical community until just a few months prior to the article when “a person called us on the phone and asked if we’d like to take a blood test.

Henrietta’s husband was not the greatestĭay cheated on Henrietta consistently throughout their marriage and was probably responsible for giving her the disease that led to her developing cervical cancer at such a young age. It’s unclear if Day pressured her into sex or if it was consensual, but the relationship continued and the two were married when Henrietta was just 20. She became pregnant with their first child, Elsie, at age 14. They were raised together and shared a room. Rather, Henrietta and her husband David “Day” Lacks had a strange and unsettling beginning. This was not really a “Southern” thing, nor was it just a product of the times. She was raised mostly by her grandfather after her mother died when she was just 4. For example, she was born Loretta Pleasant, but at some time in her life decided to change her name to Henrietta. But we know a lot now about Henrietta and her history. The movie only skimmed the surface of Henrietta’s life, focusing instead more on Deborah and the family. We know a lot about Henrietta’s backstory The book, on the other hand, takes them on and delves into every moment of the doctors’ journeys to creating HeLa cells. Of course, the movie could have spent hours getting bogged down in the details of the cell research that went into making Henrietta immortal, but then it would have been a nonfiction television show and not a compelling movie, so they left out a lot of those details. More: Why It’s So Important for Women to Share Their Stories About Not Having Kids 3. The secret was more in her life story than her death. Sure, Deborah was secretive about her mother’s affairs, mostly because the family was scared of being exploited by a journalist, but Henrietta’s medical history wasn’t exactly some big secret. The way the movie made such a big deal out of Henrietta’s medical records kind of felt of the mark. The medical records weren’t such a big secret In the book, readers get the sense that Henrietta coped with a lot of the treatment on her own. In fact, it was a long time before most people even knew Henrietta was ill. There wasn’t exactly a line of men waiting to donate blood to her cause like the movie portrayed. In the books, we learn that Henrietta didn’t want to cause her family undo stress - she probably also felt like she needed to cope too before breaking the news - so she hid her illness from her family for a long as she possibly could.

Cardboard: Also note that the tiles are cardboard, not plastic.This didn’t bother me or my kids, but it’s something to note before buying. Small Tiles: Note that the tiles are quite small (smaller than a scrabble tile).Great for Homework: Get your child to spell out their new ‘words of the week’ on the magnetic board. Good for Pre-Writing and Letter Recognition: If you’re working on letters and the alphabet right now but not writing, this is great for developing letter recognition.You’ll find that the tiles get really jumbled in the box, so your child will be scouring through looking for their letter, but that wasn’t a bother and actually is just part of the fun. This is great for spelling homework for children from Kindergarten all the way up to Grade 6. Set up three images (just like in the picture above) and talk your child through spelling out each image.Īlternatively, simply ask your child to use the magnetic board to spell out your ‘words of the week’. The main way this board is used is to spell out the words that correspond to the images. Most magnetic tiles only contain letters, but this one has letters and images. I’m a huge fan of this magnetic spelling board. I like that it comes with images, ample letters, and a grid on the magnet board. Quick Review: Probably the best magnetic letter board I’ve ever used. Finding Letters can be Frustrating: It can be a little frustrating for kids rotating the cubes around to try to find the letters.If your child is ready to start writing letters, consider a harder toy such as the SlideWriter (above). Pre-Writing Practice: This task will take place before writing begins.Children can start in the easy setting and step up to the harder settings. Guided Practice: A guided, simple method for practicing spelling.The natural wood focus would also fit well within a Steiner-Waldorf learning setting. This toy can complement an analytic phonics approach to teaching spelling, where children need to break down words into their constituent letters and sounds. Once they’ve thought about what the word starts with, they used the wooden cubes to find the letter and put it in place. What I love about this toy is that your child looks at the image and then has to think through the letters in the word. This would be a good start while a child is learning the alphabet. For this easier task, children need to simply copy the letters. ![]() You can also place the sheets into the slot so they show the image and the word. Once the child knows what they need to spell, they will need to find the letters that spell the word. In the image above, you can see that the inserted image is a tree.

Quick Review: I like the simplicity of this toy, where your child can use a hands-on approach to identifying letters that make up words.

Avoid other uses of bold in the first sentence, except for alternative titles of an article for example: The first time the article mentions the title, put it in bold using three apostrophes - '''article title''' produces article title. For example, write "King Frederick II was ] during and after the ]." If possible, make the title the subject of the first sentence of the article. It should be between one or two paragraphs long, and should be written in a clear and accessible style so that the reader is encouraged to read the rest of the article. The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, establishing context, and explaining why the subject is interesting or notable. The table of contents, if displayed, appears after the lead section and before the first subheading. The lead should not be explicitly entitled = Introduction = or any equivalent header. Unless an article is very short, it should start with an introductory lead section, before the first subheading. The following sections will offer some good advice on keeping your articles clean, consistent, and clear. Don't throw your reader a curve ball too often. Too many nested sections usually leads to a confusing or unreadable article.Ībove all, keep your layout consistent. Try using a shallow structure rather than a deep one. Just like the article as a whole, the section should start with an introduction and then have its subsections below it. Wherever possible, try to have an introduction for each section. Keep it logical, but feel free to forsake strict logic for readability. Organize sections in an article in a hierarchical structure like you would an outline. Keep a well structured article, and you're more likely to have a high quality one. Structure has the power to inform or confuse the same way good or bad writing does. It can influence what people contribute, where it goes, and how it might be written. The structure is a powerful thing: it dictates what information the reader reads and when he or she reads it. ![]() One of the most important parts of wiki editing is how to structure an article. 1.8 See also, references, external links, and navigational tables.1.5.2 Without row headings, with alt rows.1.5.1 With row headings, table caption, sortable.A sample article based off these guidelines can be found on Project:Manual of Style/Sample.

![]() We are officially ceasing development of iBiz. And so it is not with a light heart that I say, it is time to say goodbye. It’s been fun iBiz, you’ve helped many, including all of our internal team who keep track of their hours with it. However, it is clear now, we don’t have the resources to give it the attention it deserves. iBiz continued to receive fixes for a few bugs and to ensure it worked with the latest Mac OS. We kept updating iBiz and even released iBiz 4.0 in 2009. IBiz 2 (formerly known as iWork) circa 2008.ĭuring the next 7 or so years, iBank continued to grow, went through several very important re-writes and eventually became our flagship product. iBiz continued to be the bread and butter for the company, and I hired my first employee who is still with us today :-). I worked endlessly on iWork and iBank iWork eventually changed to iBiz. At this point I moved to Vermont to settle down and get serious about software. After one year as a post-doc, I took the leap of faith: I left academia to form and work on IGG full-time. ![]() But I was still a one-man shop trying to juggle a lot of work. Skip ahead a few years and by the time I was graduated and working on a post-doc, iWork and iBank were making a significant contribution to my monthly income. And although it was pretty simple at this point, especially compared to iBiz today, it still had some neat features for its time, such as 1-click emailing of invoices and an idle timer. iWork was a big success and continued to grow in popularity. I developed it to version 3.0 and then the next iteration was a complete re-write, called iWork. However, I still continued to chase my other little passion, to make AtWork better and better. I continued to make a few bucks a day, but certainly not enough to consider “going indie.” Besides, I was happy plugging away on my dissertation and chasing rare plants around southern California. I continually updated and improved upon AtWork and pushed new builds to my file server. I could hardly believe it! In a lot of ways, selling this first app marks the very beginning of IGG. The first day I posted it, I sold one copy. I found the app quite useful so I decided I would put it up on the internet and charge $6 for it. You probably get where this story is going and alas, AtWork was born. As an early OS X adopter (early as in, I installed the first beta) I was frustrated that there wasn’t an app to track the time I was spending writing reports - time I ultimately needed to bill back to the client. The fun part of the job was hiking around botanizing, the not so fun part was writing a report back at home. Occasionally on the weekends and between classes I would survey for rare plants as a side gig. Over a decade ago I was a graduate student studying biology and plant population modeling. The story of iBiz is really the story of how IGG started. |
