The Angelino & McNeil Family: A Tale of Two Families
The Angelino Family The Angelino family has five children and a sixth is on the way. The children’s ages are 14 (girl), 12 (boy), 10 (girl), 7 (boy), and 6 (girl). They all attend a nearby parochial school. Mr. Angelino owns a third-generation butcher shop that was begun by his grandfather, who emigrated from Italy in 1904. The butcher shop at one time had upstairs living quarters for the family, but about 10 years ago the family moved into a large, Victorian-style house about a block away. Mr. Angelino’s youngest brother once came back from college with ideas about expanding the business and marketing the family’s secret recipe for Italian sausage, but Mr. Angelino (the oldest son) decided against it because it would take too much time away from the family. He is fond of saying, “We are not rich, but we got a roof over our heads, food in our bellies, and each other. What more could we want?†This youngest brother is the only one in the family with a college education, and he is also the only one who scandalized the family by marrying a non-Catholic. Mr. Angelino uses his little brother as an example of the detrimental effects of “too much education.†Both Mr. and Mrs. Angelino come from large families; most of their brothers and sisters still live in the “Little Italy†section of this large eastern city. All grandparents are dead, with the exception of Mrs. Angelino’s mother (Mama). Mama lives in the home with them and is very frail. One of Mrs. Angelino’s brothers or sisters is sure to stop by nearly every day, bringing children, flowers, or food, for a visit with Mama. They often take Mama for rides or to their homes for short visits, depending on her health, and help with her basic care. Life with the Angelinos can be described as a kind of happy chaos. Kids are always running in and out of the butcher shop, where the older brothers and male cousins are often assigned small tasks in return for a piece of salami or some other treat. The old house is always full of children—siblings and cousins—from teenagers to toddlers. Children are indulged until they reach age 9 or 10, at which time they are expected to begin taking responsibility, which is divided strictly along traditional gender-role lines. Child care, cooking, and cleaning are accomplished by the women— older sisters or cousins, aunts, or mothers. Evening meals are a social event. There is nearly always at least one extended family member or friend at the table, and everyone talks about the events of the day, sometimes all at once, except when Mr. Angelino has something to say, at which point everyone stops to listen. Mr. Angelino is obviously a very affectionate father, but he expects his word to be obeyed. Bedtimes, rules about talking at the table, curfews, and other rules are strictly enforced.

This West
Indian
culture
tells the story of a dynamic cultural situation which extends to the family, which we will now refer to as the Squire’s. This family interviewed is my neighbor and is comprised of a mother (Anna), father (John) and a young son (Tyler). Anna was born and raised in Trinidad and migrated to the USA when she was 21. John is Jamaican and migrated when he was 18. They met when Anna was 24 and not long after, they were married and the union produced four children - Blake (28), Zoe (24), Micah (21) and Tyler (09). Their children were all born and raised in the USA. The Squire’s depended a lot on Anna’s parents for assistance when it came to raising their children and it appeared as if the children were reprimanded more by their grandparents than their own parents. They were also taught respect and principles by their elders. The proverb: “It takes a whole village to raise a child”, is symbolic of this communal tradition. So, whereas some children are growing up in a one-parent household, the notion of single parents is not an issue for them because neighbors and extended family alike help with parenting.
I have lived beside the Squire’s, for the past 3 years and over the years it has been evident that culture, respect for the elders and learning is paramount; the belief that the elders have knowledge and wisdom gained through experience of life, is also important. Parental responsibility is supported by the extended family and oftentimes neighbors. Their extended family is very visible in their lives and it was a very happy time for them when Anna’s parents were even visiting for six months from Trinidad.
The tradition of sharing, especially food with friends and strangers alike is a classic example which characterizes
West
Indian
homes. This is typical of the Squire household, where they are always doing cook-outs, barbecues’ and inviting the neighbors to visit. For me, this was also very heart-warming, because being from similar culture, it was a welcoming change to have them as my neighbors. I was able to share very freely with them, visit them and they would feel free to leave their son with me to babysit when they felt the need to go out and unwind. They also had no problem with our family bathing, feeding or clothing him, not to mention reprimanding him.
This family is a strong Christian Family whose firm belief is in the notion that if a family prays together, they will stay together. They are very spiritual and believe that everything they have become is because of God’s will. They believe that God has led them to each other so they are a match that was made in heaven. They feel very bles.

Singer or Arthur
CBC News- The Church service aid agency is warning that†Immediate massive intervention and assistance†are needed to prevent mass starvation in Kenya. A team from the humanitarian agency reported recently that many fields are barren and cracked, dried out by the drought that is threatening a third of the east African country’s population, or about 10 million people.
What was once among the most fertile land I  Africa can now only support a few struggling plants suitable only for grazing cattle. “ We don’t have any foodâ€. Farmer Lizy Bimba, a Kwale resident, said in Swahili. In one area, a local official reported that 85% of 5,600 people are facing starvation, the church world service team said. Other farmers have left the land to find what work they can.†We have been forced to do this so that we get money to buy food.†Musa Charo said in Swahili as he broke rocks to earn money to feed his 10 children. The government declared the food shortage a national disaster on Jan. 16, the UN is appealing for international help and aid agencies warn that the problem will only get worse.

ScenarioPeak View Sound Sources is a public company based in Denver- C.docxhenry34567896
Scenario
Peak View Sound Sources is a public company based in Denver, Colorado and is focused on providing digital media and Web sites to music companies and musicians through the Mountain and West Coast regions. The company has a solid reputation and is starting to get some national and worldwide attention, with new prospective companies wanting to take advantage of the quality services they have seen on other existing Web sites.
Your company has been hired to assist Peak View Sound Sources (PVSS) to ascertain the security posture of the company's Information Systems resources and services. You are heading the team of auditors tasked to perform the audit and assessment.
You enter the company offices of PVSS and begin your analysis of the environment and situation.
Initial analysis has allowed you to determine that the company is made up of the following divisions:
Corporate Management and Support Staff:
This organization contains the executive management, human resources, and accounting teams. All company decisions are directed from the management team.
Information Technology:
This team manages the networks, servers, Web sites, and desktop environments for the company. The team has a perception of being difficult to work with, as they are slow to adopt new technology and slow to implement new offerings. The reality is that the team has resources and wants to uptake the newest and greatest technology, but they spend most of their time putting out fires and reacting to issues.
Media Content and Design:
This team is in charge of working with the record companies and musicians to create the Web Sites and implement the product offerings that are sold.
Sales and Marketing:
This team works with the musicians and record companies to offer and sell the services of PVSS.
There is a concern about the security of the infrastructure with respect to the ability to protect the copyrighted material that PVSS is given to host, because a single incident several years ago took place in which an entire new CD was released prematurely via the Internet. Although PVSS was not directly linked to the leak, there are suspicions surrounding PVSS.
Assignment Deliverables
As you continue your analysis, you see that the Information Technology (IT) department has developed several guidelines and procedures about how various systems should be considered and set up, but this is internal only to the IT department. Every time a new machine is set up and deployed, within a month, the configuration is changed.
Explain why you think the use of these guidelines and procedures is not sufficient and may not solve the problem. Consider how a company-wide policy program could help the situation.
As you begin to prepare your game plan to conduct an Information Security Audit, talk about why you think this current situation makes it difficult to identify the controls that need to be examined.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Singer or Arthur
CBC News- The Church service aid agency is warning that†Immediate massive intervention and assistance†are needed to prevent mass starvation in Kenya. A team from the humanitarian agency reported recently that many fields are barren and cracked, dried out by the drought that is threatening a third of the east African country’s population, or about 10 million people.
What was once among the most fertile land I  Africa can now only support a few struggling plants suitable only for grazing cattle. “ We don’t have any foodâ€. Farmer Lizy Bimba, a Kwale resident, said in Swahili. In one area, a local official reported that 85% of 5,600 people are facing starvation, the church world service team said. Other farmers have left the land to find what work they can.†We have been forced to do this so that we get money to buy food.†Musa Charo said in Swahili as he broke rocks to earn money to feed his 10 children. The government declared the food shortage a national disaster on Jan. 16, the UN is appealing for international help and aid agencies warn that the problem will only get worse.

The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Angelino & McNeil Family- A Tale of Two Families The Angelino Fami.docx
1. The Angelino & McNeil Family: A Tale of Two Families
The Angelino Family The Angelino family has five children and a sixth is on the way. The
children’s ages are 14 (girl), 12 (boy), 10 (girl), 7 (boy), and 6 (girl). They all attend a nearby
parochial school. Mr. Angelino owns a third-generation butcher shop that was begun by his
grandfather, who emigrated from Italy in 1904. The butcher shop at one time had upstairs living
quarters for the family, but about 10 years ago the family moved into a large, Victorian-style
house about a block away. Mr. Angelino’s youngest brother once came back from college
with ideas about expanding the business and marketing the family’s secret recipe for Italian
sausage, but Mr. Angelino (the oldest son) decided against it because it would take too much
time away from the family. He is fond of saying, “We are not rich, but we got a roof over our
heads, food in our bellies, and each other. What more could we want?― This youngest brother
is the only one in the family with a college education, and he is also the only one who
scandalized the family by marrying a non-Catholic. Mr. Angelino uses his little brother as an
example of the detrimental effects of “too much education.― Both Mr. and Mrs. Angelino
come from large families; most of their brothers and sisters still live in the “Little Italy―
section of this large eastern city. All grandparents are dead, with the exception of Mrs.
Angelino’s mother (Mama). Mama lives in the home with them and is very frail. One of Mrs.
Angelino’s brothers or sisters is sure to stop by nearly every day, bringing children, flowers,
or food, for a visit with Mama. They often take Mama for rides or to their homes for short visits,
depending on her health, and help with her basic care. Life with the Angelinos can be described
as a kind of happy chaos. Kids are always running in and out of the butcher shop, where the
older brothers and male cousins are often assigned small tasks in return for a piece of salami or
some other treat. The old house is always full of children—siblings and cousins—from
teenagers to toddlers. Children are indulged until they reach age 9 or 10, at which time they are
expected to begin taking responsibility, which is divided strictly along traditional gender-role
lines. Child care, cooking, and cleaning are accomplished by the women— older sisters or
cousins, aunts, or mothers. Evening meals are a social event. There is nearly always at least one
extended family member or friend at the table, and everyone talks about the events of the day,
sometimes all at once, except when Mr. Angelino has something to say, at which point everyone
stops to listen. Mr. Angelino is obviously a very affectionate father, but he expects his word to be
obeyed. Bedtimes, rules about talking at the table, curfews, and other rules are strictly enforced.
This situation is beginning to cause conflict with the oldest daughter, who wants to date and
spend more time with her friends from school. Mrs. Angelino is often sympathetic to her
children’s requests, but her husband has the final say. All in all, life in the Angelino home is
warm, close, and harmonious. Mrs. Angelino, as she approaches her eighth month of pregnancy
with this last “surprise― child, shares her contentment with her priest: “I don’t know
what I have done to deserve so many blessings from the Good Lord.―
The McNeil Family Mr. and Mrs. McNeil have been married for 2 years, and she is expecting
their first child. Mr. McNeil is the youngest partner in a prestigious law firm in a midwestern
city. Everyone considers him upwardly mobile and thinks that it is phenomenal that he achieved
a partnership only 5 years out of law school. Mrs. McNeil has a degree in interior design. She
worked full time for a while for a decorating firm in another city. After she married, Mrs.
McNeil moved to this city, where she has a part-time, on-call job with an exclusive architectural
firm. She has ambitions of starting her own business. Mr. McNeil is an only child. His parents
2. live on the East Coast. They are both successful in business—his father is a banker and his
mother is a real estate broker. They have always demanded perfection from their son, and he
seems to have lived up to their expectations. Mrs. McNeil has one younger sister. Her parents
live on the West Coast. They are both professionals; her father is a college professor and her
mother is a social worker. Mrs. McNeil’s family has always been very close. She calls her
parents about once a week, and the family occasionally has conference calls with the parents and
the two siblings to decide some important issue or to relay some big news. Mrs. McNeil’s
parents place no demands on her except that she be true to herself. They often tell her how proud
they are of her accomplishments. Both sets of parents are experiencing grandparenthood for the
first time with Mrs. McNeil’s pregnancy. They are thrilled. It sometimes seems to the
McNeils that their parents vie with each other over the gifts that they give them. The McNeils
refuse the more extravagant gifts to make the point that they are indeed making it on their own,
and they have discussed some strategies for disengaging themselves from so much contact with
their parents. The McNeils’ avant-garde apartment is the scene of much entertaining with his
law firm colleagues and her artistic friends and decorating clients. Although their social spheres
overlap somewhat, each has separate groups of friends and pursues individual interests. They call
this “giving each other space,― and they consider it to be an important strength in their
marriage. The McNeils believe strongly in supporting each other’s careers and in sharing
family responsibilities; they divide cooking and cleaning in a flexible manner, according to
whoever has the time. They are also attending Lamaze classes together and are looking forward
to sharing childbirth.
Exercise – Based on what you learned in Chapter 2, answer the following questions: The
babies both Mrs. Angelino and Mrs. McNeil are expecting will have severe cognitive and
physical disabilities.
1. For both families, flash forward 5 years. 1. It is January, more than halfway through the
kindergarten school year, and the
Angelinos are concerned that their son, Nico, is not benefiting from his education. He has not
made progress toward his IEP goals and they have not seen much improvement in his academic
or functional skills at home. With which IDEA principle does this issue most closely link, and
what are the Angelinos’ rights and responsibilities? Explain.
2. It is the summer before kindergarten and the McNeils have found the perfect school for their
daughter, Elle; however, the school has expressed their hesitation for including Elle in general
education for most of the day. With which IDEA principle does this issue most closely link, and
what are the McNeils’ rights and responsibilities? Explain.
2. Explore information in your state/region regarding the availability of a Parent Training and
Information Center and/or Community Parent Resource Center. What services are offered that
you believe will be helpful to the Angelinos? What services will be helpful to the McNeils?
3. Use the family systems framework to predict the preferences, strengths, and needs of both
families in terms of characteristics, interaction, function, and life cycle.
3. 4. The Angelinos and the McNeils have different cultural values. How would you characterize
the cultural values of each family? How do you think these cultural values influence what they
consider to be appropriate self-determination for their children with and without a disability?
(Assume that the McNeils will have more children who do not have a disability.)
