It's A Wrap in NYC: New Life Expo (Awesome) and Carolin Soldo Event (Pretty Cool)

on Wed, 10/23/2019 - 02:05

 The middle of Oak-tober 2019 found yours truly in the middle of Manhattan for two stellar events, both wanting to help people network and one in particular inspire and enlighten the world big time. Which event was that? Well, both really had a great turn out, with the New Life Expo being about 500 people a day (my guess, maybe it was a thousand) for both Saturday and Sunday and half that for Friday. There were about a hundred booths and a few dozen presenters.

Everyone sparkled and imparted meaningful information if not amazing sounds and insights.

Playground Politics, Laws and Practices. If you see a child in distress (even a little one) don't pick them up (if they are not in danger etc) but rather call out to see who's with the child...

Okay so here is a post that will likely go viral and may have made the nightly news. There need to be ongoing discussions, lists and ways for people to clarify appropriate child care at all ages (of the children and even of the caregivers...) in various settings.

Hot Topics on Northwest Corner Chatter (of CT)...How to Keep Small Public Schools (and Towns who need Volunteers on Boards and for Fire and Ambulance Squads)Up and Running

Marshall Miles and Others 'tells it like it is'. Enrollment in a six town region in the northwest corner of CT has gone down in a year by 66 students. The numbers were low and declining anyway...and the worry is that may continue. How can things be turned around? Some schools allow students to attend for only $2K even though the per pupil cost is $20-30K (adding in the cost of maintaining the schools and the set salaries of teachers in CT as well as special ed student costs which can be high...so this is only for those going into the classroom I'm guessing.)

I'd Like to Ask Ralph Nader and Sen. Whitehouse about AIER's philosophy and outreach..is it on track?

 AIER.org is American Institute of Economic Research that has a large outreach (200 events around the country and the world they reported in  their latest newsletter shared. I imagine that is annually but maybe over a longer period of time.) See more about them on their website, aier.org.

Meanwhile tune into what Ralph Nader and others share on American Museum of Tort Law on tortmuseum.org (or visit as you can when you are in bustling Winsted CT, perhaps taking in the latest progress of the AMP, American Mural Project about a mile from the Tort Law Museum.)
