Google LatLong: Introducing Google Building Maker on 2009-10-14
- One of the best ways to get a big project done — and done well — is to open it up to the world. As such, today we're announcing the launch of Google Building Maker, a fun and simple (and crazy addictive, it turns out) tool for creating buildings for Google Earth.
  
  We like to think of Building Maker as a cross between Google Maps and a gigantic bin of building blocks. Basically, you pick a building and construct a model of it using aerial photos and simple 3D shapes – both of which we provide. When you're done, we take a look at your model. If it looks right, and if a better model doesn't already exist, we add it to the 3D Buildings layer in Google Earth. You can make a whole building in a few minutes.
Info 101: How TV affects infants and toddlers on 2009-10-12
- How does television affect the development of infants and toddlers?
  Physical Development: Children who watch too much television are more likely to become couch potatoes. Because they are not exercising, they are more likely to be obese.
  Language/Social Development: Language is developed through reading and social interaction. When infants or toddlers are watching television, they are not learning communication skills from those around them.
  Intellectual Development: When you are watching TV, the brain switches from the left side of the brain to the right side. The right side of the brain does not think through information that is coming from the TV. It is responsible for emotional response of people. It also reduces brain activity and provides an access to the subconscious. It exposes infants and toddlers to the influence of commercial advertising.
  Emotional Development: Infants and toddlers are watching sex and violence. Sometimes, even movies that are supposed to be for children contain sex and violence. Because children absorb what they see, it is advised that children under the age of two do not watch any television.
Tidewater School, A Waldorf Approach to Education: Babies and TV on 2009-10-12
- Watching television does not make babies smarter, according to a study released this week in the journal Pediatrics, adding to existing research that challenges the usefulness of baby educational videos and DVDs. A pediatrician recommends using blocks, puzzles and books to entertain the baby rather than TV.
- Babies who spent more time watching TV had lower language and visual motor skills at age 3.

- - "there's still more evidence of harm than benefit as far as TV viewing in infancy is concerned."
  - Rich, a pediatrician who directs the Center on Media and Child Health at Children's Hospital Boston, said TV watching during infancy instills habits that promote obesity. "You're teaching 4- or 5- or 6-month-olds how to watch TV," he said. "They're learning to watch TV. The more they watch as they get older, they're snacking in front of TV, they're exposed to snack-food commercials, which inspire them to eat even more and sit even more. It is a cumulative effect of many, many factors."
  - Rich, the study co-author, recommended relying on what has been proved to benefit children. "The best thing for our kids is to provide them with stimulus that we know is positive for their brain development," Rich said. He suggesting activities like reading, singing, interacting and stacking blocks to help children."

Kids Breathe Better on 2009-09-22
- HELP US HELP KIDS
  BREATHE BETTER
  
  Kids breathe better is an asthma awareness initiative by the Asthma Foundations of Australia, supported by partners Dyson and Harvey Norman.
  
  One in nine Australian children has asthma, and it’s a serious condition. Asthma is the most common reason for trips to the emergency department and for hospital stays. It’s also one of the most common reasons for a visit to the doctor, and the number one cause of school absenteeism.
  
  Helping parents, carers and children themselves understand how to manage asthma, is key to ensuring this condition does not stop kids leading a healthy, active and happy lifestyle.
