Democracy for Some: Closing the Civic Opportunity Gap by Joseph Kahne, Ph.D.,...MichelleHerczog
This document summarizes research on civic learning opportunities in high schools and their impact on civic engagement. It finds that experience-based learning like simulations and service-learning positively impact civic outcomes like civic skills and political participation, while information-based discussions positively impact political interest but not action. However, not all students have equal access to these opportunities. Latino students, those in non-AP government classes, and those from lower SES backgrounds report fewer civic learning experiences. The document calls for schools to provide more equitable access to effective civic learning to promote engagement and democratic values for all students.
This document summarizes a presentation about aligning the Common Core State Standards with civic education. It discusses how the Common Core focuses on 21st century skills like critical thinking, problem solving, communication and collaboration. These skills can be taught across subjects to provide contexts for applying learning to real-world scenarios. Recent California legislation also aims to integrate civic learning, which benefits students by increasing civic participation and engagement. The presentation provides examples of how reading, writing, speaking and listening standards can be applied to literature and history texts to teach civic literacy at various grade levels.

Product Design Trends in 2024 | Teenage EngineeringsPixeldarts
The realm of product design is a constantly changing environment where technology and style intersect. Every year introduces fresh challenges and exciting trends that mold the future of this captivating art form. In this piece, we delve into the significant trends set to influence the look and functionality of product design in the year 2024.
How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.
PEPSICO Presentation to CAGNY Conference Feb 2024Neil Kimberley
PepsiCo provided a safe harbor statement noting that any forward-looking statements are based on currently available information and are subject to risks and uncertainties.

It operates through a divisional structure with a focus on local consumers.

How to Prepare For a Successful Job Search for 2024Albert Qian
The document provides guidance on preparing a job search for 2024. It discusses the state of the job market, focusing on growth in AI and healthcare but also continued layoffs. It recommends figuring out what you want to do by researching interests and skills, then conducting informational interviews. The job search should involve building a personal brand on LinkedIn, actively applying to jobs, tailoring resumes and interviews, maintaining job hunting as a habit, and continuing self-improvement.

For individuals, now is the time to pinpoint the skills the future professional will need to thrive in the AI age.
Check out this presentation to understand what ChatGPT is, how it will shape the future of work, and how you can prepare to take advantage.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.

The poker tournament takes place on Wednesday, March 24th at the Grand Sierra Resort Casino in Reno, NV
for a buyin of just $200 with $100 rebuys. Half the prize pool will benefit The V Foundation with the other half
going into a prizepool. There will also be sponsor prizes, pro poker lessons and the winner will have a cancer
grant created in their name. There are many pros scheduled to participate including Antonio Esfandiari, Alex
Outhred, Liv Boeree, Lacey Jones, Adam “Roothlus” Levy, Allie Prescott along with Full Tilt pro Jeff Madsen. The
tournament kicks off at 7pm following a cocktail party which will entertain and loosen up bankrolls.
The following day brings an interesting twist to the standard charity tournament.
Many of the pros will move from the poker table to the mountain for a “Celebrity
Heads Up Ski-off” which will pit competitors against each other as they race down
the mountain. It should be a great spectacle as many young guns of poker take to
the slopes in an attempt to raise more money and entertain the masses. They will be
paired up and begin racing at 11am on March, 25th with a BBQ to follow.

Jimmy V Foundation Charity Event in Reno/Tahoe - Adam “Roothlus” Levy
Last week Katie, Amit, Trishelle, & I went on a 3-day vacation to Reno, Nevada for a charity tournament. The organiza-
tion putting together the charity tournament was the Jimmy V Foundation and if you’ve never heard of them, you should
definitely google the name, Jimmy Valvano. He was a basketball coach who took a Cinderella team, NC State, to a na-
tional championship but unfortunately succumbed to cancer years later. ESPN endorses the foundation and it is cancer
research group....
The next day we took to the slopes. It was Amit & my first time ever. After having to buy $200 worth of ski clothes and fill-
ing out some waivers, we were good to go...Once we did, they told us to take the skis for a ride and somehow I didn’t fall
after going down a small hill. Amit however wasn’t so fortunate. Granted he didn’t hurt himself or anything but it still was
funny to watch. Speaking of watching it, you can check out my Youtube account, Roothlus1, and watch exactly what I just
described plus other cool videos. Amit and I were able to get lessons from a really cool guy who was a great teacher....
I fell a few times initially, not because it was hard, but because I had trouble stopping...Takes a long time to get going but
once I do, look out!...Our instructor was riding a little faster in front of us. He was swerving back and forth when I started
picking up steam and couldn’t get myself to slow down. I screamed “Watch out! I’m coming!”. He didn’t hear me and I
crashed into him. Luckily we weren’t going too fast so we were okay. Amit was behind us both and he was able to maneu-
ver around us. As we’re down on the ground laughing we hear him make some sort of a yelp while trying to dodge hitting
us...We’re down on the ground watching him and he can’t stop himself. There was a fork in the trail approaching and he
decided to go the uphill way but when he angled his skis that way, he turned to fast and went off the trail at a decent
speed. He hit a bump and got airborne and he smacked into a stone wall with his skis first. We had to see if he was okay
and once we saw that he was, we burst out in laughter...Once we finished the trail, the lesson was over and overall our first
day on the slopes was a success...
Later that night we played in the charity tournament. I ended up having both Amit and
Tara at my table and I knocked them out in back-to-back hands. Go figure. I was able
to play with Jan from the Brady Bunch, which I thought was pretty cool. She was really
nice and made our table a lot of fun. I ended up going pretty deep in the tournament
getting 17th. Jeff Madsen busted me and hopefully that footage will show up on ESPN
when they air this...Matt Graham ended up going on to finish 2nd and hopefully got
some tv time as well. A local Reno poker player scooped up first place so that was
cool that a local beat out all the poker pros there.
The charity event was a blast and I would happily go back again if they decided to have another one of these. I’ll also be
way more inclined to go skiing now that I learned a thing or two. Now I’m off to Fort Lauderdale to visit the fam and then
Mohegan Sun on the 6th. It’s always nice to visit home and see old friends. It puts things in perspective a bit and makes
me appreciate everything more. Until next time peace out!
Reno Charity Tournament - Matt Graham
Hey guys. Really short blog today because I broke my elbow and tore liga-
ments in my elbow in a ski wipeout. I am out in Reno for a V Foundation charity
tournament. The tournament was last night and I actually got 3rd despite being
zoned out on pain killers the whole time...I got 3 outed vs a local player for like
85% of the chips in play. I was giving it all back to the charity anyways in the
form of half straight to the charity and the other half to be used to buy items in
the charity auction. I was able to get two totally awesome items though...So all
in all it wasnt too bad of a day despite the injury...

Crazy good week! - Michael Binger
I went to Reno for a charity poker tournament benefiting the V Foundation. This was founded by the late great
basketball coach Jimmy Valvano and ESPN to benefit cancer research. After spending a couple days with the
V Foundation people I was totally impressed... this is one of the most worthy charities out there. So I was very
happy to go crazy during the rebuy period: I think I was in for 15-18 buy-ins (at $100 each). I didn’t make it very
far in the tourney but I had a lot of fun anyway. I also bid on and won several items from the silent auction...
The next day we went to Mount Rose ski resort. The conditions were pretty
good, with 6 inches of fresh powder. I also participated in the Poker Pro ski
race. Now this sounds dangerous: taking very competitive (and sometimes
reckless) poker players and having them race down a mountain! Somehow
nobody got injured during the race, probably because it was somewhat short
slalom course. I was the only snowboarder out of the 16 competitors. In
hindsight, I think being on a board was a serious detriment... it was hard to
compete with a competent skier. Anyway, not making excuses (ok I guess I
am), but I lost my first round race to Alex Outhred, a very good skier and great guy. Antonio went on to win the
whole thing.
The rest of the day was blissful boarding. That evening we were treated to an amazing wine dinner...
Seems like I couldn’t get any better...
best of luck,
Michael Binger
My March Madness – Tiffany Michelle
Shortly after that trip I headed to Reno for another cool charity event. I joined several of my poker pro and
celebrity pals for the V Foundation’s charity poker tournament. Of course, after making it deep in the tourney
I knew I had NO SHOT the moment I sat down at Brandon Cantu’s
table – aka THE LUCKIEST PLAYER ON EARTH. I got all in with 10s
verses his 7s and obviously he went four to a flush to knock me
out... which is what we call getting “CANTU-ED”! On this trip we
were all able to get out of the casino for the day and hit the ski
slopes! It was pretty funny to see so many poker players out of
their element, wrapped up in scarves, beanies, winter jackets and
boots, trudging through the snow. ESPN was covering our “poker
and powder” weekend which included a Celebrity Poker Pro ski
race. I was hopeful about my first heat, racing against Liv Boeree
but a last minute change paired me against Antonio Esfandiari. I
grew up skiing and thought I’d had a decent chance against that goofball, especially when the little Hustler
told me he MAYBE skis once a year. Needless to say, Antonio SCHOOLED ME! It wasn’t even close. I was kinda
just happy just to make it down the icy hill without a major wipeout, which the TV cameras would have been
delighted to catch. I also felt like less of a loser when Antonio went on to beat every other racer and win the
entire thing! Nice job Esfandiari.... WE SHALL MEET AGAIN!

Nevada High Points:
“It was a wild and exciting ride last night at the V Foundation’s Celebrity/Charity Poker Tournament held at the
Grand Sierra Resort in Reno, Nevada.”
Bluff Magazine:
When Derek Farrington’s wife wandered into the Grand Sierra Resort and
Casino poker room this week, the last thing she expected was to end up
seated next to Phil “The Unabomber” Laak playing $1/$2. The serendipitous
moment did in fact occur though and it resulted in her husband taking part
in the charity poker tournament benefitting The Jimmy V Foundation.
Farrington was one of 48 players who took part in the $200 rebuy event at
the Grand Sierra. He was surrounded by a long list of pros including Laak,
Antonio Esfandiari, Tiffany Michelle, Maria Ho, Adam “Roothlus” Levy, Jerry Yang, Jeff Madsen, Dani Stern and
Jennifer Tilly. Emceed by Alex Outhred and Trishelle Cannatella, the tournament and accompanying silent
auction raised in the realm of $50,000 for the organization, which raises money for cancer research.
The charity event raised both money and awareness for the cause and the representa-
tives from the Jimmy V Foundation were more than pleased with the results. Board mem-
ber Julie Constantin told Bluff she thought, “the event went incredibly. “You want to raise
money, but you also want to raise awareness,” she added. “It’s been an incredibly inspir-
ing evening for me.”
There is the potential for the event to inspire others as well, as it was filmed by ESPN2
and will air on the network later this year in tandem with a downhill ski race featuring
poker pros and celebrities held on Mt. Rose. The finals of the tournament style ski-race came down to Liv
Boeree and Esfandiari, with the Magician claiming the honor of poker’s best ski bunny.
Farrington collected the top prize of $4,877, some of which was spent on silent auction items benefitting the
charity. Graham pledged half his winnings to the charity and spent the other half on silent auction items and
several other players followed suit donating a portion of their winnings.
Poker News Daily:
At the tournament itself, the Tweets flew as fast as the cards themselves. WSOP double bracelet holder
Brandon Cantu started by Tweeting, “Jimmy V foundation charity tourney i have matt graham to my right any
time he enters a pot i’m moving in.” Others would follow with their Tweets, with Liv Boeree and Tiffany Michelle
chirping about their defeats at the hands of Cantu. “I swear @BrandonCantu is my poker nemesis,” Michelle
commented. “Got it all in with 10s v his 7s obv he goes four to a flush. That’s what we call getting Cantued!”
Boeree would prove to have no better luck when she went head-to-head with Cantu: “Playing the charity
tournament. just got Cantued for big pot, obv.”
Fellow WSOP double bracelet winner Jeff Madsen had much better luck in going up against Cantu, however.
“Wow beat Cantu in an all in,” Madsen Tweeted as he made his run to the final table of the event. “Final table.
I make every charity final table. All of my proceeds will be donated to the Jeff Madsen Fund,” Madsen jokingly
tweeted after he made it. The winner of the tournament will have a cancer research grant created in their
honor.
The mountains of Reno would prove to be a tempting diversion for several of the participants in the V
Foundation event. Hitting the slopes for some skiing and snowboarding were poker pros Amit “amak316”
Makhija, Adam “Roothlus” Levy, and Boeree, prompting Savage to Tweet, “please don’t break anything!”
Madsen, who was boarding with Trishelle Cannatella and Cantu, looked to get some action on the activity
by Tweeting, “I put the number of broken bones in the group at over 0.5.” Apparently, all made it though the
mountains without issue because Michelle Tweeted to fellow snow surfers Alex Outhred, Boeree, Cantu, and
Madsen this morning, “4-6 new inches of snow on the mountain today... we might not kill ourselves YEAY!”
