More Sex and Cloning Stories More Stories Enlarge image Teenage mothers LYNSEY TULLIN was 15 when she became pregnant. The only contraception she and her boyfriend had used was wishful thinking: "I didn't think it would happen to me," she says. Tullin, who lives in Oldham in northern England, decided to keep the baby, now aged 3, although as a consequence her father has disowned her. Tullin is not alone. In the UK nearly 3 per cent of females aged 15 to 19 became mothers in 2002, many of them unintentionally. And unplanned pregnancies are not the only consequence of teenage sex - rates of sexually transmitted diseases (STDs) are also rocketing in British adolescents, both male and female. The numerous and complex societal trends behind these statistics have been endlessly debated without any easy solutions emerging. Policy makers tend to focus on the direct approach, targeting young adolescents in the classroom. In many western schools teenagers get sex education classes giving explicit information about sex and contraception. But recently there has been a resurgence of some old-fashioned advice: just say no. The so-called abstinence movement urges teens to take virginity pledges and cites condoms only to stress their failure rate. It is sweeping the US, and is now being exported to countries such as the UK and Australia.

Search engines fascinate me. A user's choice of them is almost endless. New ones come into being. The more established ones are often up-dated in a never-ending attempt to be fresh and inviting. When I work with students (grades 6-12) who are trying to use the Internet, I want plain ones. Those that are free of advertising and the search box is very obvious. Two that meet these requirements are:
  • http://www.wisenut.com and
  • http://www.google.com
    A couple more search engines are almost meet my requirements:
  • http://www.altavista.com and
  • http://www.northernlight.com
    Both of these have an obvious search box; however there are lots of preexisting links on each page. Perhaps they might be helpful to some users; however, I find many students are distracted by the extras. For those who think one engine is as good as another, I issue this challenge. Pick a subject to research. Then try these four and some of the others you might use. I think you will find that different links are found in each.

    WHY SPECIAL SERVICES?
    TOP A child with learning difficulties or attention problems may need some modification to a standard curriculum. Sometimes these can be minor adaptations, such as presenting lessons orally. Sometimes a different book format may be required. An individualized curriculum which works with the student's strengths in order to develop the weaker areas is the best teaching approach for a student with learning difficulties. For the home schooling parent, designing such a curriculum can be a real challenge. While a parent may be knowledgeable about a child's learning style, the parent may not know where to find appropriate materials to satisfy the academic requirement as well as fit the child's learning needs. The Special Services department at Seton works to help children with a range of difficulties, such as Attention Deficit, Downs Syndrome, and dyslexia. THE STAFF TOP The customized curricula are designed by Stephen Costanzo who has been with Seton Home Study School since August, 2004.

    http://www.americanyogaassociation.org/EasyDoesIt.html
    The American Yoga Association's Easy Does It Yoga
    , provides a comprehensive routine of exercise, breathing, and meditation, many of which are designed for chair or bed. Our Easy Does It Yoga Trainer's Guide is a step-by-step guide for anyone who works with older adults or others with physical limitations.
    A Message from Alice Christensen When the body, breath, and mind are not regularly energized, the typical result is increased inactivity, depression, and increasing dependence upon others. Regular gentle exercise and relaxation training can have a remarkable effect on building a foundation of good health that results in independent living and a positive outlook on life. Easy Does It Yoga can help people help themselves to achieve these goals. The wisdom and experience of our older population can be a great contribution to our country in terms of family cohesiveness, business success, and personal fulfillment. Older adults who model happy, successful aging will inspire our younger citizens while maintaining a rewarding life for themselves. Our proposed self-help videotape will lead participants through a carefully designed program of adapted Yoga exercises, breathing techniques, and meditation. Most of the techniques are practiced sitting in a chair or standing holding on to the chair. Many techniques can also be done in bed. The Easy Does It Yoga program gradually improves strength, limberness, circulation, stamina, memory, and feelings of well-being. It can reduce depression, insomnia, and many of the aches and pains that often make daily life difficult. One of the program's innovations is step-by-step instruction in how to get down on the floor and back up again, a skill that most of us take for granted, but which is vitally important to reduce the fear of falling as we get older. The models in the videotape will be older people in a class setting, and the teacher will be a highly trained American Yoga Association instructor.

Results revealed that a society with a dominant religious ideology determines the expressed attitudes of its young people to a significant degree. [Source: EA]
