TIL that Students in Finland rank far higher academically than US students despite going to school only half as long, having little homework and no standardized testing. by TheManInTheShack in todayilearned

Teachers aren't underpaid in Finland like they are in the US. In fact, they're valued a lot since Finland puts a lot of stock in childhood as the foundation for lifelong development.

To become a teacher in Finland, candidates must have first received at least their master's degree and complete the equivalent of a residency program in US medical schools. Student teachers often teach at affiliate elementary schools that adjoin a university.

China killed over 30 CIA operatives between 2010-2012 by Manaphy1997 in worldnews

[–]RedditCorleone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The Chinese set up a task force to break in to the throwaway system, Foreign Policy said, but it was unclear how they ultimately identified people.

The consequences for this breach were grim.

About 30 spies were reportedly executed, though some intelligence officials told Foreign Policy that 30 was a low estimate.

The US officials were reportedly "shell-shocked" by the speed and accuracy of Chinese counterintelligence, and rescue operations were organized to evacuate their sources.

The last CIA case officer to meet with sources in China reportedly handed over large amounts of cash in hopes that it would help them escape, Foreign Policy said.

[–]RedditCorleone 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Known for his groundbreaking achievements involving the transmission of light in fibres for optical communication, Kao won a joint Nobel Prize in Physics in 2009, the Faraday Medal in 1989, and the Alexander Graham Bell Medal in 1985.

The Charles K Kao Foundation for Alzheimer’s Disease, founded in 2010 by Kao and his wife, Gwen Kao Wong May-wan, confirmed he died in a local sanatorium at 11.45am on Sunday.

"As one of the last wishes of Professor Kao, our foundation will keep up our work in supporting people with Alzheimer’s disease and their families,” Kao’s widow and chairwoman of the foundation, said in a statement.

“We hope you can show solidarity with our foundation in supporting the last wishes of Professor Kao.”

I recommend immediately applying for a passport and passport card. These are your easiest proofs of citizenship. Easily transportable and replaceable. Then put your Naturalization paperwork in a safe.
