The Hipparcos Star Globe depicts the celestial sphere that was astrometrically viewed as a whole for the first time by the Hipparcos satellite.

Gaia > Hipparcos Globe

It is a projection of the night sky onto an icosahedron (a polyhedron with 20 triangle faces), highlighting especially bright stars and the constellations. Printed onto two sheets of A4 paper, the globe can be assembled to form a 3D star map that fits in the palm of your hand. The globe draws on the Hipparcos map of the sky: a colour, all-sky map in Galactic coordinates synthesised from Hipparcos and Tycho data products.

The full-size map shows around 2.5 million of the brightest stars in the sky, as well as the luminous cloudy profile of the Milky Way itself. On the Hipparcos Star Globe, the Hipparcos map appears as the clouds of the Milky Way and the brighter point-like stars. BusyTeacher: Free Printable Worksheets For Busy Teachers Like YOU! Vocabulary.

She is also the author of "Passion Pursuit: What Kind of Love Are You Making? " and "Finding the Hero in Your Husband," among others. In 50 years, our society has gone from “father knows best” to “father knows nothing” to “who needs a father?” Children Are Better Off With a Father Than Without One - Room for Debate. It can be tempting — in a world where women are increasingly likely to be single mothers, “breadwinner moms” or supermoms seemingly able to do it all — to think of men as superfluous to the family.

Children Are Better Off With a Father Than Without One - Room for Debate

From Hollywood to academia, this view has tremendous currency. In “ Raising Boys Without Men ,” for instance, the Cornell psychologist Peggy Drexler put it this way: “women possess the innate mompower that in itself is more than sufficient to raise fine sons.” But the view that men are superfluous in today’s families is dead wrong. While it is certainly true that some children raised without fathers turn out just fine (I did), on average, girls and boys are much more likely to thrive when they have the benefit of a father’s time, attention, discipline and especially affection.

Young people's own tactics for public image management online

Some people call it online reputation management, but online is just a “place” where reputations are curated, and among the most skilled curators are thoughtful young social media users thinking about their futures. There are a lot of those skilled reputation curators at Net Literacy, a nonprofit, youth-led digital literacy organization in Indiana, because its whole mission is peer-mentoring and senior-mentoring in digital literacy by middle and high school students (50% of its board of directors are students). Maybe the reputation-management tactics of some of its members – Kyle, Will and Alec – would be useful to kids at your home or school. 10 Excellent Digital Citizenship Tips for Your Students and Kids.

When you argue, as I frequently do, that cooking has the potential to help us deal with many of our dietary problems, you often elicit a kind of “I don’t care, I hate cooking” response in addition to the expected “I don’t have time.”

And that’s fine; cooking isn’t the only route to eating better, and besides, those who hate cooking, or can’t make the time for it, may be lucky enough to have someone else cook for them. As long as they wash the dishes. But it pays to remember that it’s been 40 years or more since cooking went out of style for most Americans, and that a positive approach to it — one that encourages cooking and counters the ongoing marketing surge that helped make it seem so “unnecessary” — could help to change matters. Children are probably more likely to develop healthier eating habits if their parents cook, and there are countless reasons it pays to cook for your kids, though for the moment I’ll leave that argument to others.
