			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   In past generations, singing and playing instruments was an integral part of family life.  A great way to express and entertain yourself and others.  We did not realize it, but we were also exercising our brain while we played, causing us to be creative, more vibrant, smarter, etc.  In our current generation, we tend to be passive listeners and consumers as a society, and as a result, shorting our mental development and our children the opportunity to reach their mental potential.</p>
<p>Humans are “wired” for music.  Until recently, scientists did not know how music affected the brain.  The advancement in technology allows scientists to actually “see” brain activity via PET scans and MRI imaging scanning the blood flow in the brain.  Our brains are “wired” with neural pathways.  Most activities only cause a portion of the brain to “light up” with activity; thus, the saying, right brain/left brain, etc.  But there are actually four parts to the brain and music makes ALL of the areas “light up” and create new neural pathways as a person is learning and playing an instrument.  Those neural pathways remain in tact and can be used for other things besides music.  Norman Doidge, in his book, The Brain That Changes Itself, shares case after case of people forcing their brain to change and adapt either voluntarily with discipline, or involuntarily due to odd incidences.  Studies confirm that our brain has plasticity.  “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” is proven to be a case of “can’t want to,” rather than too old to change.</p>
<p>Daniel Levitin passionately explores the connection between  Music and the Brain in his book of the same name.  Google his name, watch video clips on YouTube, or go to his website.  It’s an exciting time of discovering how little we know and how much there is to learn.  There is definitely enough evidence to recognize it is not in a music teacher’s imagination.  Music has a huge impact on activity in the brain.  You can physically/visually see the growth and changes that happen inside the brain.  The possibilities are endless.  The implications for music therapy and music education are profound.  Just check out PBS video “The Music Instinct.” Neurologist and author, Oliver Sacks relays a true story from his book, Musicophilia, where a man was indirectly struck by lightning through a telephone and three weeks later composing and playing the piano for the first time.  Sacks believes the man was “re-wired” through that experience.  The list goes on and on.</p>
<p>But even if you are still skeptical about music making kids smarter, let’s look at the other benefits.  Socially, music is an ageless hobby creating interaction with great people.  Take a look at any school band or orchestra or top-ranking choir and you will find a huge percentage of the members are in the top 10% of their class and college bound.  Striving for excellence is a given in a musical group.  Everyone has to perfect their part for the group to perform at their best–NObody “sits on the bench.”  Everyone has to pull their weight or the whole group suffers.  Creativity, especially in jazz groups is developed, honed and embraced.  Who couldn’t use more creativity in their workforce? Creativity is what makes the difference and gives any company the cutting edge.</p>
<p>There are many benefits of being involved in making music, but the neural pathways drives home the point and gets our attention.  Scientists are reluctant to state that playing a musical instrument makes you smarter, but all the indicators are there, so let’s look at it from the opposite angle.  Instead of trying to prove that music makes you smarter or good for you and your child, try to prove that it is not. I can’t think of a single reason how learning a musical instrument is detrimental, can you?</p>
<p>Give your child every opportunity and advantage you can. Enroll them in music lessons and watch them grow and mentally develop as they play, create, express, and struggle through the rigors of the discipline mastering an instrument.  You will discover a more creative, brighter and mature person in the making.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   General Awareness has now become an important part of So many mainstream competitive exams Including Bank exams. It Comprises of finance and economy, Current national and international events, Geographical, social, cultural aspects of the country and world etc.</p>
<p>Candidates applying for a job are now expected to have a good knowledge of current events of national and international level.</p>
<p>General Awareness is quite beneficial for candidates if it is prepared properly especially in Bank recruitment exams. The reason for this is the it&#8217;s questions don&#8217;t take any time to solve, all you have to do is read and Mark the answer if you know it. This section could well be attempted in 10 minutes time without much effort and it&#8217;s highly scoring also. So General Awareness can help crack the exam comfortably if prepared properly.</p>
<p>Depending upon the nature of the job, emphasis will be given to a particular category of questions. General Awareness For Bank exams mostly consists of current Events, mainly including Finance, economical issues of national and international level. Questions on world politics, social &#038; cultural events can also be asked. This test also helps in testing candidate&#8217;s ability to gather latest information around them.</p>
<p>Preparing effectively for General awareness is not possible in a single day. It takes time as the candidate is required to be aware of events taking place at international level over a period of time and the range of questions is also quite large. So the preparation should be started well in advance.</p>
<p>Reading Newspapers regularly is an integral part of preparation as it keeps the candidate updated about current events. Going through previous papers, model papers, and magazines like Pratiyogita darpan is quite helpful.</p>
<p>Remember that general awareness requires regular and dedicated effort. But once prepared properly, it will gain the candidate and important edge and will eventually ensure his/her success in the desired Competitive exam.</p>
<p>All the best for your success!!!

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   While the government under the current administration is putting emphasis on helping working mothers return to college, many people may not know exactly what government grants are.    Many would like to think that such federal programs which aid mothers in being able to attend college is a fresh and innovative idea, in reality it is simply a reworking of existing government benefits.  As a mom the idea of going back to college maybe a dream you never thought could be fulfilled now it can through the Pell grants a huge asset to any potential student.</p>
<p> The Federal Pell grants has existed over many years making it one of the many familiar types of government financial aid for the furtherance of college.    Unlike a loan, a Pell grant does not have to be repaid, which makes them very attractive to students seeking aid.    Pell grants are generally awarded to students seeking an undergraduate degree who have not already earned a bachelor&#8217;s or professional degree.    The Scholarship for mom&#8217;s program with its two distinct advantages has caused a huge stir amongst single, working moms.    The current president as well as his administration is encouraging mothers to attend college through the funds which have been made available through the Pell grants although there is no specific program given.  </p>
<p> If you&#8217;re concerned that you won&#8217;t be able to support yourself on the Pell grant a monetary gift you will be pleased to know that it does not restrict you in seeking other sources of financial aid.    Aid from other federal programs as well as private, non-federal institutions can be applied to cover education costs.    The award year will take place from the 1st of July 2009 to the 30th June 2010 with the maximum amount to be given through the Pell grant of $5,350.00.    It&#8217;s unlikely that this amount will cover your full college expenses it does not restrict you from applying to other sources. Furthermore, if you are awarded money, its use is not limited to paying for tuition.    Other expenses which are acceptable in connection to your education are such things as books, laptops, travel and housing.  </p>
<p> With the current administration focusing its attention on education the Pell grant program and its benefits have been highlighted making the ¦scholarships for moms&#8217; all the more popular.    If you are a single mother who is working and wishes to become a student and earn a degree such a federal program fulfills all those specifics.    College can now be obtained regardless of your financial status or family needs.</p>
<p>government grants through the federal Pell grant program are highly beneficial to help get more students to go to college.    This is exactly true for all those working mothers.  If you.  The current administration is heartily cheering for single, full-time working mothers to apply for college and earn a degree.  Your future could be much brighter than you realize.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   Atlanta Schools&#8217; &#8220;Wellness&#8221; Workshops Promote Nutrition and Physical Education</p>
<p>When Atlanta Schools opened at the end of August, a new project was initiated. The &#8220;Wellness&#8221; Workshop Project kicked off the school year with a workshop that included Olympic gold medalist Gail Devers, author Yvonne Butler, 300 students from the Atlanta School District, faculty members, and community leaders. This was the first ever Atlanta Schools&#8217; &#8220;wellness&#8221; workshop. Atlanta Schools&#8217; Margaret Fain Elementary School&#8217;s Wings of Eagles dance troupe performed to illustrate how much physical energy is used in dance.</p>
<p>The first &#8220;Wellness&#8221; Workshop was co-chaired by Dr. Marilyn Hughes, the director of nutrition administration for Atlanta Schools, and Billette Owens-Ashford, Atlanta Schools&#8217; director of physical education and athletics. The goal of the &#8220;Wellness&#8221; Workshop Project is improve the health of the students by identifying health-related problems. It has been proven that health related issues can often have a direct affect on a student&#8217;s academic achievement.</p>
<p>The inaugural &#8220;Wellness&#8221; Workshop for the Atlanta Schools had a variety of speakers and displays that provided resources on nutritional based activities and physical education activities. The keynote speaker was Dr. Yvonne Butler. Dr. Butler is a noted author whose book, &#8220;Healthy Kids, Smart Kids,&#8221; discusses the impact of diet and exercise on learning and academic performance. Other speakers included Olympic track-and-field gold medalist Gail Severs who spoke about importance of exercise to health and how to stay physically fit.</p>
<p>Atlanta Schools&#8217; &#8220;Wellness&#8221; Workshop Project is part of a broad program that aims to provide both fitness and nutrition strategies for students and staff in all Atlanta Schools. Innovative strategies that will be used include yoga classes for teachers and students, vegetarian cafeteria lines, and walking trails. The overall plan was developed by the Atlanta Schools&#8217; Board of Education. The Board of Education will offer guidelines on how to implement the program and how the schools will be evaluated.</p>
<p>A major part of the plan is establishing wellness councils. These councils will be comprised of teachers, parents, administrators, students, and community and business partners. The council will assist Atlanta Schools in integrating nutrition and physical education into the current curriculum. The wellness council will also have a presence at events throughout the Atlanta Schools.</p>
<p>Recently, Atlanta Schools&#8217; wellness plan received a boost from the involvement of an Atlanta Schools&#8217; parent. Linton Hopkins has two children attending E. Rivers Elementary School. Hopkins is concerned about the nutritional value of cafeteria offerings at the E. Rivers Elementary School but unlike other parents, Hopkins is the executive chef of Atlanta&#8217;s Restaurant Eugene and winner of this year&#8217;s Atlanta &#8220;Iron Chef&#8221; competition. Hopkins has joined the Local School Wellness Council to help evaluate the school&#8217;s cafeteria. Hopkins isn&#8217;t the only trained chef to join the E. Rivers Elementary School&#8217;s wellness council. Elisa Gambino, owner of pasta emporium Via Elisa, has along with eleven other parents joined the wellness council. Parental involvement is an important element to the success of the wellness councils. Currently, approximately 90 percent of Atlanta Schools&#8217; elementary and 65 percent of high schools have parents actively involved with the wellness council of their school.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   Are you looking to buy toys for your children? One of the best toys you can get your child is educational toys. Educational toys are especially designed to help in the development of the child and are made so that children can develop new abilities. These include learning a language, visual comprehension and motor skills. Other educational toys include those that stimulate senses and exercise developing muscles.</p>
<p>Buying educational toys may seem challenging as it is quite difficult to purchase toys for infants.  Finding a balance between a toy that educates and one that entertains is obviously a big challenge. You need to find something that is fun so that your child stays interested, as well as stimulates your child to think and learn. Also, you need to consider safety, functionality, durability before purchasing toys for your children. If you are looking to buy educational toys for your children, here are a few tips that will help:</p>
<p><b>The age of your child</b><br />
Babies that are less than six months old have limited motor skills, and love bright colours and noisy sounds. Buying rattles, colourful pictures, teething rings and soft blocks will help stimulate your baby. For babies between six and nine months, larger toys such as building blocks and stacking rings are ideal. Children who are one year old, will enjoy push and pull toys, stacking blocks and nesting cups. After a few months, these children will then enjoy playing with stuffed toys. Once the children have started speaking and drawing, they will be able to use electronic learning toys and puzzles, which will help in the child’s mental development.</p>
<p><b>Your child’s preferences</b><br />
Always consider what your child enjoys and finds appealing. If they seem to enjoy music, then look for beginning level instruments. Or if they show an aptitude for artwork, then look for paint and crayons. For kids who are active, getting sports oriented items may be advisable.</p>
<p><b>The durability of the toy</b><br />
Make sure you buy a toy that will be able to withstand rough treatment. Although toys manufactured by reputable makers may cost more, they will be able to last longer and be used by other children in the family too.</p>
<p><b>The safety of the toy</b><br />
Toys that are made from small pieces may harm younger siblings of older children or even pets at home, so you may want to check labels for components and potential harmful materials, to ensure the safety of all members of the family.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   Single working mothers have probably the hardest job of all, in having to take care of their families on their own.  A wish or a goal for many moms that has to be put on hold in order to take care of other responsibilities, is higher education.  President Obama, along with his new administration, however, is encouraging moms to make their education a priority.  Obama scholarships will give working mothers a great chance to improve their futures.  </p>
<p> With his Scholarships for Moms program, Obama, while encouraging people of all ages to seek higher education, is targeting working moms in particular.  Building on The Scholarships for Moms program, is the long-standing offer of Pell grants by the federal government.  The most commonly applied for forms of aid for students going to college are Pell grants.  These are applied for through the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, or FAFSA.  Now the Obama administration is making some changes to encourage more mothers to return to school.  </p>
<p>For the Scholarships for Moms program, the biggest incentive is in the amount of money that is being offered.  $4000 per student is the maximum amount awarded through Pell grants, but that amount is increased to $5,000 for mothers who apply to the program.  The purpose of these grants is to allow working moms to return to school and earn a degree.  That in turn allows them to better provide for their families now and in the future.  The administration also envisages that by equipping mothers with skills to earn more money as working professionals will also be a stimulus to the economy.  Moms can receive an education without the worry of school costs or of repaying a loan.  </p>
<p>Another great incentive for moms in considering this program is that it applies to enrollment in almost any type of higher education institution.  Four-year universities as well as smaller community colleges, are covered.  You have the choice of going to a private school or a public one.  If staying on campus isn&#8217;t an option, busy moms can opt to study through online courses.  Basically the government&#8217;s Scholarships for Moms program is a comprehensive attempt to get mothers who are keen back into the classroom.  </p>
<p> The Obama scholarship really takes a lot of the worry out of returning to school.  Working moms can earn a degree in almost any area of interest.  This means that they can be fully equipped to provide for their families.  Higher education doesn&#8217;t have to be an unfulfilled wish or an unobtainable goal any longer.  Designed to help create a brighter future for mothers and their children, is the Scholarships for Moms program.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>   An accredited online college degree can be the key to opening doors for a more fulfilling life and career path. No matter where they are in life, many crave to explore their full potential. With an Associate&#8217;s, Bachelor&#8217;s or Master&#8217;s degree, it can be possible to not only explore boundaries but create new ones altogether.</p>
<p>The world of online learning has exploded in the last few years, from becoming distance learning programs for those in special circumstances to the now every day 9 to 5 professional who balances a life of work and home while trying to get ahead. The idea of an accredited online degree program fits perfectly with the world of convenience the Internet has created. From paying the electric bill to shopping for shoes, everyday activities are being done from the comfort of home- including getting an education.</p>
<p>For many careers, getting a college degree can mean advancement and making thousands more per year. Getting a degree online, however, means not having to disrupt a current adhering to rigid class schedules. This alone is the primary reason that online learning has rapidly grown not only in popularity but also in levels of respect with the professional world at large.</p>
<p>If the idea of learning anywhere at anytime is appealing, take a look at online learning. From the comfort of home or any other location, in the middle of the day or at the end of an evening when activities have quieted down, learning comes when it is convenient for the student. A student who is at ease in their learning environment, during periods when they are openly ready to learn is likely to retain material better than those who are twisting their lives around a schedule that doesn&#8217;t fit.</p>
<p>An Associate&#8217;s, Bachelor&#8217;s and Master&#8217;s degree can be earned online in Business, Criminal Justice, IT Technology, or Healthcare. Once the program for the degree is finished, online certificate programs can help to keep a professional&#8217;s credentials current. The ease of acquiring the education necessary for advancement and the high quality of the instruction earned with online learning continues to reach higher levels of respect with professionals and employers alike</p>
<p>One of the biggest benefits of choosing to get an accredited degree online is getting to skip the costs of relocation or commuting to and from a campus. Room and board costs are also non-existent. As with all accredited learning institutions, financial aid will be available to those who qualify.</p>
<p>The curriculum used for online learning is the same curriculum found at brick and mortar campuses; and just like a brick and mortar campus, accredited degrees are rewarded upon completion of a program. Depending on the student and their choice of program, this can take as long or as short of time as necessary. Students having this much control over their education can make the whole process of achieving a degree a much less daunting task than that of traditional methods.</p>
<p>More and more professionals are opting for online solutions to further their careers; and because of the quality of the curriculum, employers readily recognize online degrees as a legitimate source for earning the right credentials. Many companies realize there is tenacity required to balance getting an education while working and it is often a trait they want in an employee.</p>
<p>An accredited online college degree is a wonderful tool for breaking into a career or bringing one up to levels that a person can find challenging yet rewarding. Convenient with year round enrollment and classes that are ready to go whenever the student is, this type of learning has become an indispensable venue for the working world.
