As the Internet diffuses across the globe, many have come to believe that the technology poses an insurmountable threat to authoritarian rule. Grounded in the Internet's early libertarian culture and predicated on anecdotes pulled from diverse political climates, this conventional wisdom has informed the views of policymakers, business leaders, and media pundits alike. Yet few studies have sought to systematically analyze the exact ways in which Internet use may lay the basis for political change. In O \

BES - Bisogni Educativi Speciali - una integrazione possibile

BES - Bisogni Educativi Speciali - una integrazione possibile
By:"Giuseppe Valsecchi"
Published on 2015-03-05 by Giuseppe Valsecchi

Documentazione di laboratori trasversali e aperti al territorio proposti a tutti i ragazzi, gestiti e organizzati da docenti di sostegno, quella risorsa e ricchezza in più spesso sottovalutata e poco sfruttata. L’insegnante di sostegno, la cui presenza nella scuola assume rilevanza nei periodi di nomina con costante pressione per la scarsità dei posti di lavoro e conseguente disservizi nei rapporti con i ragazzi disabili, non vive mai nella considerazione delle potenzialità che il suo ruolo riveste. Innanzitutto insegnante di classe, e ciò ha rilevanza! Insegnante ancor più della scuola, se si pensa in maniera sistemica e di apertura di spazi e di ruoli. Se questi sono i parametri fondamentali, allora sostegno diventa ricchezza, diventa apertura, diventa elemento qualificante nei processi di apprendimento di tutti i ragazzi. In questo testo abbiamo documentato come il ruolo del sostegno possa essere centrale nella scuola, possa essere propositivo in un concetto di classi aperte e di esperienze laboratoriali, possa essere mediatore con l’ambiente e il territorio, possa essere quella risorsa in più che permetterebbe di operare oltre il curriculum, oltre il programma, oltre la consuetudine, oltre la mancanza di risorse, oltre le mille limitazioni dietro le quali la scuola spesso si nasconde. Non sarà più il ragazzo disabile costretto ad uscire dalla classe, ma sarà la classe stessa ad uscire per operare ed apprendere attraverso canali, strumenti, professionalità e occasioni differenti.

Building Internet Firewalls

Building Internet Firewalls
By:"Elizabeth D. Zwicky","Simon Cooper","D. Brent Chapman"
Published on 2000-06-26 by \

In the five years since the first edition of this classic book was published, Internet use has exploded. The commercial world has rushed headlong into doing business on the Web, often without integrating sound security technologies and policies into their products and methods. The security risks--and the need to protect both business and personal data--have never been greater. We've updated Building Internet Firewalls to address these newer risks. What kinds of security threats does the Internet pose? Some, like password attacks and the exploiting of known security holes, have been around since the early days of networking. And others, like the distributed denial of service attacks that crippled Yahoo, E-Bay, and other major e-commerce sites in early 2000, are in current headlines. Firewalls, critical components of today's computer networks, effectively protect a system from most Internet security threats. They keep damage on one part of the network--such as eavesdropping, a worm program, or file damage--from spreading to the rest of the network. Without firewalls, network security problems can rage out of control, dragging more and more systems down. Like the bestselling and highly respected first edition, Building Internet Firewalls, 2nd Edition, is a practical and detailed step-by-step guide to designing and installing firewalls and configuring Internet services to work with a firewall. Much expanded to include Linux and Windows coverage, the second edition describes: Firewall technologies: packet filtering, proxying, network address translation, virtual private networks Architectures such as screening routers, dual-homed hosts, screened hosts, screened subnets, perimeter networks, internal firewalls Issues involved in a variety of new Internet services and protocols through a firewall Email and News Web services and scripting languages (e.g., HTTP, Java, JavaScript, ActiveX, RealAudio, RealVideo) File transfer and sharing services such as NFS, Samba Remote access services such as Telnet, the BSD \

Fashion at the Edge

Fashion at the Edge
By:"Caroline Evans"
Published on 2003 by Yale University Press

Caroline Evans analyses the work of experimental designers, the images of fashion photographers, and the spectacular fashion shows that developed in the final decade of the twentieth century to arrive at a new understanding of fashion's dark side and what it signifies? Drawing on a variety of literary and theoretical perspectives - from Marx to Benjamin - Evans argues that fashion plays a leading role in constructing images and meanings during periods of rapid change. She shows persuasively that fashion stands at the very centre of the contemporary, where it voices some of Western culture's deepest concerns.

Planet Middle School

Planet Middle School
By:"Dr. Kevin Leman"
Published on 2015-09-29 by Revell

It happens to every parent. One day, you have a sweet son or daughter who loves to snuggle on the couch and who puts a smile on your face just by walking into the room. The next day, it's as if someone left the door open and let in an alien with a smart mouth and an attitude that, frankly, you could do without. Entering middle school is like stepping onto a different planet--for parent and child alike. It's a planet where peer pressure, social media, and hormones can wreak havoc in your child's life and in your relationship with him or her. But these years don't have to create chaos in your family. Parenting expert and New York Times bestselling author Dr. Kevin Leman's time-tested principles will aid parents in helping their middle schooler not only survive but thrive during these turbulent years on Planet Middle School. He shows parents how to - understand their child's rapidly expanding world - respond rather than react to emotional swings - tell their child about sex (before someone else tells them their version) - create opportunities for their child to practice selflessness and gratitude - ensure that their kid is one who loves home and family Middle schoolers can be a weird, unpredictable species. But with a little help from Dr. Leman, parents will be able to ride out the interstellar storm with humor and confidence.

Hydroglobe - definition of a global framework for hydrotherapy

Hydroglobe - definition of a global framework for hydrotherapy
By:"Vari"
Published on 2014-03-27 by Vari

Millions of people around the world use hydrotherapy (HT). Such widespread use, especially in South America, East Asia and Africa, has led to increased professional and public debate across the world on HT as a form of healthcare. In the main European Countries, HT training is incorporated into medical curricula and HT treatments are provided by national healthcare systems. However, commonly accepted definitions of HT therapies and products are yet to be established. FEMTEC (www.femteconline.org) is one of the most representative medical thermal HT associations, having been founded in 1937. It has official working relations with the World Health Organization (WHO). Together, they develop programmes using natural resorts for therapy and health. FEMTEC is a co-promoter of the WHO-GARD (Global Alliance against Chronic Respiratory Diseases) international programme (www.who.int/respiratory/gard/en/). The Federation maintains close contacts with international medical hydrology associations like ISMH (International Society of Medical Hydrology, www.ismh-direct.net), universities and ministries of health in different countries. FoRST (www.fondazioneforst.it ) is the Italian Foundation, established in 2003, for scientific research on HT. It provides funding for scientific research in hydrology and balneotherapy. FoRST is practically the sole provider of funding for research in this research area in Italy. FoRST recently redesigned its own system for evaluating scientific projects. As such, to ensure funding goes to the best projects, the decision was taken to follow standard, internationally-recognized project evaluation procedures using external experts as peer reviewers. Even if HT is growing and ever more widespread, there is still a significant lack of data in this field, no list of the different types of HT and the definitions have not yet been finalized. In addition, the legal status of these therapies and the training programmes vary drastically from country to country. There is still no international assessment of the use of this kind of therapy.

Home and Exile

Home and Exile
By:"Chinua Achebe"
Published on 2000-07-27 by Oxford University Press

Chinua Achebe is Africa's most prominent writer, the author of Things Fall Apart, the best known--and best selling--novel ever to come out of Africa. His fiction and poetry burn with a passionate commitment to political justice, bringing to life not only Africa's troubled encounters with Europe but also the dark side of contemporary African political life. Now, in Home and Exile, Achebe reveals the man behind his powerful work. Here is an extended exploration of the European impact on African culture, viewed through the most vivid experience available to the author--his own life. It is an extended snapshot of a major writer's childhood, illuminating his roots as an artist. Achebe discusses his English education and the relationship between colonial writers and the European literary tradition. He argues that if colonial writers try to imitate and, indeed, go one better than the Empire, they run the danger of undervaluing their homeland and their own people. Achebe contends that to redress the inequities of global oppression, writers must focus on where they come from, insisting that their value systems are as legitimate as any other. Stories are a real source of power in the world, he concludes, and to imitate the literature of another culture is to give that power away. Home and Exile is a moving account of an exceptional life. Achebe reveals the inner workings of the human conscience through the predicament of Africa and his own intellectual life. It is a story of the triumph of mind, told in the words of one of this century's most gifted writers.

The Country of Lost Children

The Country of Lost Children
By:"Peter Pierce"
Published on 1999-06-07 by Cambridge University Press

The figure of the lost child has haunted the Australian imagination. Peter Pierce's sometimes shocking study The Country of Lost Children, traces this ambivalent and disturbing history. In the nineteenth century the idea of losing one's child to a strange country reflected white settlers' distrust of their new land and its Aboriginal inhabitants. The book offers insights into the passing of an opportunity for reconciliation between European and indigenous Australians. In the twentieth century the lost child continues to torment the national consciousness, but no longer as the bewildered wanderer in the bush. Instead the emblematic lost child of modern Australia is a victim of abuse, abandonment or abduction. Drawing on a wide range of sources, from poetry, fiction and newspaper reports to paintings and films, this book analyses the cultural and moral implications of the lost child in our history.
