REEL HOPE is tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, December 7.

In addition, ECAP collects and describes the literature on elementary and early education, care, and child development. The Prekindergarten Research in Progress database provides descriptions of ongoing or recently completed studies of State-funded prekindergarten programs, or studies that use State-funded prekindergarten programs as one of several settings for research. Two examples are (1) The National Survey of Lead Teachers in State-Funded Prekindergarten Programs (also known as the National Prekindergarten Study), and (2) a study of parent involvement in rural Illinois state-funded prekindergarten programs conducted by Dr. Brent McBride at the University of Illinois. Project staff plan to add several records to the database each month.

Hurricane Dennis was a very dangerous storm packing maximum sustained winds of 120 mph. Dennis destructive forces were felt inland through southeastern Mississippi, the southern half of Alabama and the southern half of Georgia. As Dennis moved inland through southwestern Alabama, hurricane-force winds and heavy rain penetrated far inland. With such a large storm system, some communities impacted by the storm may need assistance in their recovery efforts. If you would be interested in helping out jurisdictions in the aftermath of this or any natural disaster, the International Code Council Disaster Response Committee (DRC) could use your help. As a building or fire safety professional, you know how important building safety is, especially in the face of such devastation. Your knowledge and experience in recovery could be of great use to communities who have been overwhelmed.

Strategies for discussing the contents of web pages with patients. Why is evaluation necessary? There is no government agency or other authority that screens and controls the information posted to the World Wide Web. The Web encourages the open exchange of ideas, which is why access to the Web has been banned in some countries. However, this means that users must evaluate the information they find on the Web because the quality of information is so variable. Luckily, the web can be "self-correcting" - because of the convenience of the Web it is just as easy to find correct information as it is to find incorrect information! If users compare the evidence from a number of Web sites, then they can make informed decisions.
