Group behavior: large number of people in a given area behave simultaneously in similar way and have a similar goal, that might be different from what they would do individually

May 11 2011. Malaria Day Awareness Program
REPORT OF SOCIAL
MOBILIZATION ACTIVITIES IN IBUSA, OSHIMILI NORTH LGA
1. Introduction
The Youth Ambassadors with
support from HMI implemented a project centered on mobilizing vulnerable
communities for malaria prevention through drama and inter-personal
communication. Malaria is a major public health
concern in our communities and in Nigeria as a whole. It is obvious that
malaria is a big issue in our great nation with the most vulnerable people
being children, youth and pregnant women and it is one of the leading causes of
illnesses and absenteeism in schools, offices, and in market places, yet it is
a treatable and completely preventable disease. This strategy has been found to
be quite successful in educating a large percentage of population on malaria
prevention. Our target and focus has extended from children under age of 5 and
pregnant women to general populace, children, women and men with the aim of
creating demand for available services, sensitizing community members and
promoting health-seeking behavior among others
2. Advocacy
The team paid
advocacy visit to the community elder of Achalla, Diokpa Okorji and his wife.
He welcomed and embraced the new development in the community after
introduction and our mission in Achalla. From his speech we were made to
understand that malaria is rampant and his people complain about the disease.
Our team members assured him of disseminating factual information on causes,
signs and symptoms, preventive measures and treatment to the community members.
With this information they are empowered to make decision and take action
against malaria.
The team also met
with Eke Market Association in Umujei with the same information. The team made them
to understand and corrected some misconceptions about malaria. Some people said
malaria is course by working under the sun, taking too much of red oil,
witchcraft, etc all these are addressed during the visit.
Actual
mobilization
Drama: The drama was designed to
sensitize and educate the community people on the causes, symptoms, prevention
and treatment of malaria. During the drama, there was demonstration of LLIN as
one of preventive measures with emphasis on sleeping under it. Also ACTs- ‘coartem’ - for effective treatment for the
disease.

Watch as Mona rubs and licks on the lid of a wooden bowl which contains salt. Anna was surprised that I didn't stop her from licking our salt bowl, but I had to explain that Mona holds all the cards in our family and is not subject to the normal rules governing pet cat behavior.

This is one of those perfect moments, where you take a picture at the exact moment that can turn something boring into something completely different.
I don't feel like a text describing the picture itself is necessary, just have a look and think about it.
Please let me know what you think through a comment or two. :)
What a valuable, purposeful and honorable position you are in! Whether you’re a parent, family member, teacher, therapist, or friend, you have the opportunity to change a teen’s life! Perhaps you’re raising a pre-teen that has a wild side. Maybe you’re a teacher who wants to impact the students that spend most of their time with you. You might be a caring relative or family friend who understands the influence of positive relationships. You can change a teen’s future!

through continuo is a constellation of events. some are random: gamma-ray detection and the presence and behaviors of visitors, and some are composed: the sonification of the gamma-rays (the quiet pops and clicks one hears around the work), the look of the installation, and the changing frequencies of the LEDs. "frequencies of the LEDs" refers not to the brightening and dimming, but to the changing rates of pulsation.
viewers experience gamma radiation as sound and light. the relationship between the gamma-ray detection and the pops and clicks of sound is linear, 1:1. the relationship between the soft pops and clicks to changes in the frequencies of the leds is statistical, non linear. each led has its own pattern of brightening, dimming, and pulsating, and those behaviors are influenced by a statistical analysis of gamma-ray detection in real time.
essentially, the work has linear and logarithmic relationships based on random events. for the viewer, this creates an experience that oscillates between one's impulse to understand events as sequential/temporal and a work that is inherently spectral, i.e., based on persistent, shifting frequencies.
in the context of the binary title of the show at the Brooklyn Zen Center, Silence and Noise, we're thinking about time and frequency, and how one's experience is persistently both, but how from an increasing number of perspectives time is an illusion unique to the human mind. the universe, it seems, is not sequence, it is waves - but we are wired so that to us its always both. in through continuo the linear relationship between the gamma-ray events and the audible clicks is a noise element in that it evokes the temporal mind, and the silence is the silence of the visible change in LED frequency. the Silence and Noise effect is that the work itself is an oscillation, a wavelet and an interval between the two.
The RBT accreditation will be in charge of executing, not planning, the behavior plans designed by their supervisors. Our training is designed around the RBT Task List and meets the BACB’s RBT requirement of 40 hours of training.
Held Thursday 09/14/2017, the Center on Finance, Law, and Policy hosted a symposium discussing behavioral finance. This event included keynote speakers, interdisciplinary panel discussions, and an interactive audience experiment, exploring topics of technological progress in our overall economy.

While he wasn't running around chewing up Styrofoam, this puppy dog was all right by me. I even got him to sit on command and look right up at me for a few shots. Definitely love the editing on this one as well as the look of love that only puppy's can really give you.
My dad might refer to Nano mostly as "Asshole" but he's not above bribing his affections with slivers of feta cheese. Or teaching him to JUMP for food. Thanks, dad.

Bailey is a 3 year old.She is great with our 5 and 6 year old children as well as her best friend Cooper, our Boston Terrier. She is crate trained and house broken. She is most comfortable indoors and out in a fenced backyard to play. Before Bailey made her way to our family we were told her owner tried to train her as a hunting dog which she had no interest in. She shows tendencies of anxious behavior when she is out and about. We have had a trainer come and help us with her leash walking and she is doing great!

In this panel, Colin Camerer, Andrew Caplin, and David Laibson—leading behavioral scholars whose work includes innovations in subdisciplines like behavioral finance and neuroeconomics—will join us to explore how their research has given valuable insight into economic models of human behavior. Discussion will focus on how new insights from behavioral research can be accommodated in more traditional models, and the areas in which behavioral economics can most helpfully challenge orthodox views on economic behavior. The panel should help inform audience members with backgrounds in economics and related fields on how to incorporate behavioral insights into their programs of study and research, and understand more broadly how this increasingly popular field has enriched the field of economics.
so it's late in the season, but I think these fish must have been spawning. the fish at left was partly breached and 'breathing' heavily. the fish at right was wriggling around blowing bubbles. i understand bubble nests are a thing. still, i'm a bit perplexed as to why in october, and why at the bank of a quickly-shrinking stream.
my revised hypothesis is that this is a strategy for dealing with poorly oxygenated water. the site was dry by the next time i visited; as of two weeks later we're finally getting rain, but the streambed is dry and the fish have almost all died.
