Studies more firmly tie sugary drinks to obesityHoward Lane
AP Chief Medical Writer New research powerfully strengthens the case against soda and other sugary drinks as culprits in the obesity epidemic.
A huge, decades-long study involving more than 33,000 Americans has yielded the first clear proof that drinking sugary beverages interacts with genes that affect weight, amplifying a person's risk of obesity beyond what it would be from heredity alone.
This document outlines strategies by the NSW Department of Education and Communities to increase Aboriginal employment in public schools. It discusses establishing recruitment initiatives, increasing the number of Aboriginal teachers and support staff, providing leadership programs and mentoring for Aboriginal teachers, and connecting Aboriginal staff through online networks. The department has increased Aboriginal representation among teachers from 1.4% in 2005 to 2.8% currently, exceeding its benchmark of 2.6%. Contact information is provided for the Aboriginal Human Resources Directorate staff.
Research on the Quality of Registers To Make Data Decisions in the Dutch Virt...Piet J.H. Daas
This document summarizes research on evaluating the quality of registers to inform data decisions for the Dutch Virtual Census of 2011. It presents a quality framework with three dimensions - source, metadata, and data - and applies this framework to analyze various administrative registers. Key findings include registers having low frequency of delivery updates, important missing variables, inconsistencies in time periods and definitions, and incomplete or inaccurate content. The conclusions note that the virtual census has been successful in the Netherlands but that further evaluating register quality using this framework is needed to determine how to derive all census variables.
The document provides an overview of what it means to be a member of the Church of the Brethren from the perspective of a member. It discusses some of the member's personal faith journey and maturation in their understanding of salvation, peace, and living according to biblical principles. Key aspects of Brethren theology are explained, including non-creedalism, the priesthood of all believers, simplicity, and ordinances. The effectiveness of the denomination in areas like ethical investing, outreach, and disaster relief is highlighted. The member expresses continued spiritual growth within the Brethren tradition.

This document provides an overview of employee performance appraisal systems. It discusses that performance appraisal is an ongoing process to assess an employee's performance throughout the year, not just during formal reviews. It aims to identify strengths and weaknesses to improve performance. While reviews provide an objective basis for decisions like pay increases, the overall goal is continuous communication between managers and employees to prevent and solve problems.
This document provides a summary of English verb tenses including:
1. The present simple tense and how it is used to describe habitual or repeated actions.

3. Various ways to express the future in English including the will-future, going-to future, present progressive, present simple (timetable future), future progressive, and future perfect tenses.
4. Exercises are provided to practice using these tenses in sentences, highlighting their proper usage.

Twitter as a data source for official statistics: first results.Piet J.H. Daas
Piet Daas, Mark van de Ven, and Marko Roos from Statistics Netherlands and Erasmus University Rotterdam presented research on using Twitter as a potential data source for official statistics. They collected over 12 million tweets from 380,000 Dutch Twitter users from 2009-2010. Analyzing hashtags, they found the most discussed topics were Twitter itself, sports, applications, politics, and TV. However, representativeness of Twitter data is an issue since not all Dutch residents use Twitter. More research is needed to refine analysis and address representativeness.

Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
