| Life Lock - Identity theft can happen anywhere to anyone. In line at the store, online at home or when you're buying
your morning coffee. If your identity is stolen, you can spend hundreds of hours cleaning up your credit and struggling
to get back your good name. That's because stolen identities are used up to 30 times, with most victims only discovering
the theft after they've been turned down for a loan or contacted by a collection agency. You may already be a victim,
many times over, and not even know it. But not with LifeLock. LifeLock, the industry leader in proactive identity
theft protection, offers a proven solution that prevents your identity from being stolen before it happens. We'll
protect your identity and personal information for only $10 a month - and we guarantee our service up to $1,000,000.
We also offer the only identity theft child protection program available in the market, so guarantee your good
name today and enroll now. |

| American Cowgirl - Women have been involved in rodeo, a sport originally designed to test the skills of the cowboy, since
the late 1800's. With roots in the travelling Wild West Shows of days gone by, women's rodeo has spawned some larger
than life heroines as well as every day competitiors who tough it out weekly on the pro-rodeo circuit. Today, women
compete in bareback and bull riding, barrel racing, breakaway roping and calf-roping. |

| Kidipede - History for Kids - began in 1995 as a community service learning project for sophomores at Portland State University in
Portland, Oregon. Since 2000, however, it has been entirely organized and run by Karen Carr. Dr. Carr holds a PhD
in Classical Art and Archaeology from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and is an associate professor of History
at Portland State University. Her interests lie especially in the Greek and Roman worlds, which is where this site
began; we have been gradually expanding into other periods in response to audience demand. If you would like to
help with this expansion by writing a page, or a whole section, we'd be delighted. We'd even pay you if we used
your page. Kidipede averages about 25,000 unique visitors/day, and we serve about 130,000 pages a day, or almost
four million page views every month. Most of our visitors are children and teenagers, but we also see college students,
parents, and teachers. |

National Institute of Mental Health - The mission of NIMH is to transform the understanding and treatment of mental illnesses through basic
and clinical research, paving the way for prevention, recovery and cure. For the Institute to continue fulfilling
this vital public health mission, it must foster innovative thinking and ensure that a full array of novel scientific
perspectives are used to further discovery in the evolving science of brain, behavior, and experience. In this
way, breakthroughs in science can become breakthroughs for all people with mental illnesses. In support of this
mission, NIMH will generate research and promote research training to fulfill the following four objectives:
* Promote discovery in the brain and behavioral sciences to fuel research on the causes of mental disorders
* Chart mental illness trajectories to determine when, where, and how to intervene
* Develop new and better interventions that incorporate the diverse needs and circumstances of people with
mental illnesses
* Strengthen the public health impact of NIMH-supported research |

| Six Steps
to ELL Lesson Design - Classroom teachers across the country are struggling to
find ways to meet the needs of non-English, limited English, and proficient English speakers within a single curriculum.
This often calls for adaptation of existing lessons or the creation of new materials, tasks that are often challenging
and time consuming. In Arizona, for instance, Proposition 203 demands that all instruction be performed in English
in an effort to ensure that non- and limited English students learn English efficiently. Issues similar to these
are topics of interest in Colorado, California, and Massachusetts, and more and more non-English speaking students
are being mainstreamed into the classroom. To cope with the challenges surrounding this issue, Six Steps to ELL
Lesson Design was created. |
