ProPublica: Journalism in the public interest reports that the process of discharging disabled borrowers education debt isn’t working. “Education Department Bureaucracy Keeps Disabled Borrowers in Debt” “Under federal law, borrowers who develop severe and lasting disabilities after taking out federal student loans are entitled to have their debts forgiven. The system was meant to be compassionate: to spare former students who become disabled from a lifetime of ruined credit, garnished benefits, and spiraling debt. But an investigation by ProPublica and... Read more

Teen Voices the Realities of Living with ADD

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 11:51 am By Guest Contributor

At the Witches’ Voice there is an essay by Katryna who candidly writes about life as a teen with ADD/ADHD. “ADD/ADHD: How to Make it into a Positive Journey” www.witchvox.com/va/dt_va.html?a=usmd&c=words&id=14318 “I think my main problem with ADD/ADHD is how people try to “fix” it, and how they handle this “problem”. They try to make you concentrate by doing negative things, such as taking away your TV, or freedom, or whatever other privileges you might have if you can’t concentrate. They... Read more

Unless You Know The Mystery

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 11:51 am By Guest Contributor

For a very long time I moved through the world tied down to the most reviled person I knew. Myself. This other person rode along in my body, giving constant snarls and criticism on everything I did. The relationship was similar to the initially toxic symbiotic relationship of Melanie and Wanderer in The Host by Stephanie Meyer. I felt alien in my body, in the world yet not experiencing it. I feed off of and needed the attention of others.... Read more

BBC Two Video – How Subtitles Are Made

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 11:51 am By Guest Contributor

The BBC Two program See Hear has a video up about Red Bee Media, the BBC’s subtitling company. It shows how subtitles are created and what can be done to improve subtitle quality. If you’ve watched TV with subtitles, especially live, and wondered why captioning was off by almost a minute or the words made no sense, watch the video to find out. I’m sure Red Bee Media’s process is similar to captioning technology in other countries. The results can... Read more

Are you prepared for a medical emergency?

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 11:52 am By Guest Contributor

Image: Red emergency bag labeled with a white equilateral cross. It was almost midnight and my sister was holding my hair and shoulders to keep me from falling off the bed as I vomited again and again. My husband tried to calm me. We had tested my blood sugar and it was normal unlike just six months before when I ended up in the ER with a blood glucose of 400. I wasn’t keeping any stomach medication or water down....

When Big Women Go BAD: Body Awareness Divas Part 1

Last updated on: May 31, 2016 at 11:52 am By Guest Contributor

My Winter Solstice and Lunar Eclipse ritual included a promise to myself and a prayer to the Goddess and the Universal Divine asking for assistance in keeping that promise. That promise was to love myself. To love and accept myself for who I am and by doing so I would be empowered to live my life to the fullest. For me that includes caring for my health, making new friends, and getting beyond fear of failure to do what I... Read more
