We hear it all the time--save the bees! Well, one Colorado woman has come up with an idea that could do just that.Danielle Bilot, an instructor at the University of Colorado Boulder, created the Forgotten Hive project. The initiative aims to transform parts of parking lot spaces into rest stops for bees.“These native bees, some of them can only fly about three blocks before they need more food,” explains Bilot. “And, so, if we don't have a frequent enough system, they're going to potentially die trying to get to the next big park space.”Bilot, with the help of students involved in the project, added nearly two dozen different plants at the edge of one parking lot in Boulder. The new plants, which replaced shrubs, will hopefully give bees a place to get food year-round.Bilot says there are more than 3,600 native bee species around the country, and they're not just cool to look at.“They are more efficient pollinators for crops than the honeybees we often think of,” says Bilot.Bilot visits the lot at least once a week to observe the bees and to take note of how they’re responding to the plants.“If some of them aren't attracting native bees, and we're not catching them on them, we won't plant them in the next lot,” Bilot says.The instructor hopes to spread the word and to spread hives to parking lots around her city, the country and the world.“We're looking at a large amount of urban land that can be converted into productive green space for a variety of benefits,” says Bilot. “What city wouldn't want to do that?” 1548

We know virtual learning is mentally hard on kids, but what about physically? If your child is having persistent neck or back pain, it might be related to poor posture and poor body positioning.At some point during the pandemic, most children across the country were doing some sort of computer-assisted learning. At Children's Hospital of Orange County in Southern California, pediatric physical therapist Ruchi Bagrodia covers posture and seating with kids who are of age.There are many things they should be doing.“I always encourage them, a child, to sit at a dining or office table, a chair with a seat back. Their back should be supported,” Bagrodia said.There are lots of things they shouldn't do.“Never sitting on the floor, never sitting in bed, never sitting on the couch,” Bagrodia said. “For therapy appointments or learning, it promotes poor posture if you’re in a squishy bean bag chair or couch. You’re never going to sit up well if you’re there for a couple hours. You’ll develop all sorts of kinks and achiness in the neck, the shoulder, the back.”Many Americans are at home, and these days, many are in chairs a lot. If you're using a device, it matters where you put it. “The level of the tablet, the height of it matters,” said Bagrodia. “We want it arm’s-lengths away and the top of the screen should be just below your eye level. If you’re on the floor and your tablet is on your lap, you’re going to be looking down at your lap and that can develop shoulder neck pain, achiness.”When asked about the long-term implications of persistent bad posture, Bagrodia said, “Poor posture is something is that is developed in a 6- or 7-year-old by the time they’re 20, maybe they do have serious back pain or issues.”While you're repositioning your children, doctors say, pay attention to their mental health too.“Across all different mental health issues, we’re seeing a marked increase, everything in kids. We’re not just talking one age range, we’re talking young childhood all the way through late teenagers,” says Dr. Christopher Min, a pediatric psychologist.Dr. Min says kids need the structure, stability and routine that school provides, and that is what's missing for a lot of kids.“Kids' bodies and brains do really well, “ Dr. Min said. “We’re creatures of habit, when they have that regularity, it’s really great for their brains.”Dr. Min says try to provide some sort of routine and make sure you incorporate enough physical activity, such as a daily family walk. And he says there are signs when things are not going well for children.“For kids, a sign of some mental health difficulties is irritability (which) is a symptom of anxiety and depression in kids,” Dr. Min said.He recommends to pay attention to sleeping and eating habits. While you can't do everything, you can definitely make sure children are consistently physically comfortable while learning at home. That doesn't mean you need a fancy or expensive desk.“If the chair is too high and their feet is hanging off, then put a box or laundry basket underneath their feet so they’re supported. If the laptop is really low, then put books or something under the laptop to lift it up, put a cushion if the chair is too big, put a pillow, or roll up a sweatshirt and tuck it under the low back for some support,” says Bagrodia.At the same time, if you are sitting for long periods of time, check your positioning as well, since it appears the work from home life won't be sitting anytime soon. 3488

We are pleased that @halleberry listened to the concerns of transgender people and learned from them. Other powerful people should do the same. A good place to start is by watching @Disclosure_Doc to learn about trans representation in media. https://t.co/SAxSvXxbk3— GLAAD (@glaad) July 7, 2020 303

WEST ORANGE, N.J. – Remote learning is no easy task for typical children, but for families with special needs students, having kids home from school not only makes learning tough, it takes a toll on their ability to get necessary therapies.The Senek family from New Jersey has lived this reality for the past five months. Their 12-year-old daughter, Josephine, struggles with mental and physical disabilities, and during the pandemic, these challenges have become more present than ever.“She’s got multiple disabilities, including a rare chromosome disorder, she’s missing connective tissue in her brain, and in addition, she’s got autism,” said the young girl’s mother, Krysta Senek.Like families across the country, Senek and her family were forced into remote learning because of COVID-19, but she found a totally different education experience between her typical son and her special needs daughter’s classwork and resources.“The at home learning was not good,” laughed Senek. “We did try it, we attempted,” she said of keeping up with her special needs daughter’s assignments and care.“It’s different because we’re mom and dad,” she said. “We’re not teacher were not therapist, we’re not aide, we’re mom and dad. Yet, Senek and her husband were thrust into all those roles without help or guidance in the beginning.“Emotionally, we were wrecked,” she said. “She would meltdown and hit us, she would scratch us and bite us, pull our hair, just throw a meltdown, strong hard screaming meltdowns.”Josephine’s aides were trained for and equipped to handle those meltdowns.In school, Josephine had those professionally trained aides with her throughout the day, but when the pandemic hit, that help stopped. She eventually got some help from a therapist who now comes to assist at certain times during the week. But Senek said the change in routine and change in those around her really upset her daughter’s learning.“It just blew her up, and she couldn’t focus she couldn’t learn, she couldn’t get therapy,” said Senek.For special needs students, the therapy they get every day in school is critical to developing life skills and social skills.“I just don’t want her to go backwards,” Senek said. “When a child with disabilities goes backwards, it takes us twice as long to get us back where we need to be.”Those therapies provide health care too, and now that Josephine isn’t in school, Senek said she’s had a hard time keeping her daughter’s back and leg braces on during the day.“They were getting her to wear it at school, and then because she’s so used to wearing it at school, it wasn’t a problem to put it on her at night, but that stopped,” said Senek. “She hasn’t worn her scoliosis brace since March, and her feet are starting to collapse, so those things are going to affect her.”Senek said the last few months have impacted her own health too.“Our school district and the school, they all thought about what’s best for the kids, what’s best for the staff, nobody thought about the parents,” she said.It’s been the toughest time in her life as a mother.“We suffer from things like PTSD, and I even suffer from that, and it’s because of my daughter. I don’t blame my daughter, but it’s as a result of caring for a child with special needs that I have PTSD,” said Senek.This emotional weight is a feeling Senek knows other families in her shoes feel too, especially when thinking about the future.“It makes me emotional, and it makes me scared because I have no idea what her future is going to hold for her. It’s going to set all of the kids back,” said Senek.It’s a fate this mother fears will alter her daughter’s life forever.“I’m nervous that maybe she would’ve been in a group home, independent, and now, she won’t qualify for independent group home. She might need a nursing home,” Senek said.Thankfully for the Seneks, their teenage son Sheldon is stepping in for the summer to be Josephine’s aide. But this help will end when Sheldon goes back to school himself.“It’s been really nice to physically see her more, but kind of see how she’s like as a person,” said the high school student. “Rather than, ‘Oh yeah that’s my sister, it’s like, that’s my sister.’”Senek is hopeful this fall her daughter can return to school safely or find another aide once her son goes back to school. She warned for all families with special needs students, the time to ask for help is now.“Moving forward, we need the proper assistance,” Senek said. “Regardless of where we are with this pandemic, the special needs population cannot be forgotten, they’ve already been forgotten, and they cannot be.” 4609

WASHINGTON (AP) — The top U.S. military officer is telling Congress that the U.S. armed forces will have no role in carrying out the election process or resolving a disputed vote. The comments from Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, underscore the extraordinary political environment in America, where the president has declared without evidence that the expected surge in mail-in ballots will make the vote “inaccurate and fraudulent,” and has suggested he might not accept the election results if he loses.Trump’s repeated complaints questioning the election’s validity have triggered unprecedented worries about the potential for chaos surrounding the election results. Some have speculated that the military might be called upon to get involved, either by Trump trying to use it to help his reelection prospects or as, Democratic challenger Joe Biden has suggested, to remove Trump from the White House if he refuses to accept defeat. “I believe deeply in the principle of an apolitical U.S. military,” Milley said in written responses to several questions posed by two Democratic members of the House Armed Services Committee.The military has adamantly sought to tamp down that speculation and is zealously protective of its historically nonpartisan nature. 1292
