Box Hill - Place - eMelbourne - The Encyclopedia of Melbourne Online (3128, 14 km E, Whitehorse City) Box Hill has for most of its history been a respectable middle-class eastern district and suburb of Melbourne. The name, from Dorking in Surrey, was adopted by an embryonic township on the road between Melbourne and Lilydale in 1861.

The Effects of Clothing on the Self-Esteem of Teen Girls For teen girls, self-esteem can be impacted not only by the way they look, but how they feel about the way they look. Self-esteem can also be tied up in how a teen girl feels about her abilities and talents, no matter how successful she is in school or other areas. Anita Gurian, Ph.D., with Education.com, points out that eating disorders, depression and low self-esteem are the most common mental-health problems in young girls. The clothing that teen girls wear can sometimes say more about her self-esteem than her personal style. For girls who have an unhealthy view of their bodies, the issue of modesty can play a role in their self-esteem. Girls are increasingly sexualized in the areas of clothing, with items like bras, thongs and even revealing swimsuits for very young girls.

The CRAP test for evaluating sources I frequently blog about evaluating sources— it was the subject of my very first post–so it should come as no surprise that I liked “Crap Detection, A 21st Century Literacy” from the Libraries and Transliteracy blog, which I found through the Librarian in Black. I wanted to point out two great items featured in the post: Howard Rheingold’s “Crap Detection 101,” and the librarian-created CRAP test for evaluating sources based on “Currency, Reliability, Authority and Purpose/Point of View”: CurrencyHow recent is the information?

1. general lack of time to share knowledge, and time to identify colleagues in need of specific knowledge; 2. apprehension of fear that sharing may reduce or jeopardise people's job security; 3. low awareness and realisation of the value and benefit of possessed knowledge to others; 4. dominance in sharing explicit over tacit knowledge such as know‐how and experience that requires hands‐on learning, observation, dialogue and interactive problem solving; 5. use of strong hierarchy, position‐based status, and formal power (“pull rank”); 6. insufficient capture, evaluation, feedback, communication, and tolerance of past mistakes that would enhance individual and organisational learning effects; 7. differences in experience levels; 8. lack of contact time and interaction between knowledge sources and recipients; 9. poor verbal/written communication and interpersonal skills; 10. age differences; 11. gender differences; 12. lack of social network; 13. differences in education levels; 14. taking ownership of intellectual property due to fear of not receiving just recognition and accreditation from managers and colleagues; 15. lack of trust in people because they may misuse knowledge or take unjust credit for it; 16. lack of trust in the accuracy and credibility of knowledge due to the source; and 17. differences in national culture or ethnic background; and values and beliefs associated with it (language is part of this). by gigisonnenstrahl Jul 9
