A Curriculum Like No Other- http://www.ronpaulcurriculum.com/public/main.cfm

A student who goes through this curriculum, kindergarten through high school, will have a mastery of the foundations of liberty. There is no other curriculum on the Web to match it. Here, you and your children can get an education in liberty like no other.

Here, students learn the basics of Western Civilization and Western liberty -- how it was won, how it is being lost, and how it will be restored. (Not can . . . will.)

Students also learn the basics of American history, the United States Constitution, and American geography.

They get two courses on free market economics. They get two courses on government, including a how-to course on reclaiming America, one county at a time.

Students get mathematics, either through calculus or statistics or both.

They get the basics of science: earth science, biology, chemistry, and physics.

 

Grades K-5

The curriculum for grades K-5 is completely FREE. The curriculum will be made available on the website free of charge. I want to help home school families get started. Parents will not enroll their children. The courses will be available to everyone for free. The details are here.

It will be posted in stages, beginning on September 2.

You will not be asked to enroll your K-5 child. It will be available to anyone and everyone:  PDFs and YouTube.

Once families recognize the value of my program, K-5, I think 80% of them will sign up for the next six years.

Frequently Asked Questions- http://www.ronpaulcurriculum.com/public/department53.cfm

To understand the Ron Paul Curriculum, you need to understand the whole picture: benefits for students, benefits for parents, educational criteria, accreditation, state regulation, and much more. This department covers the basics. As more questions are submitted, more answers will be posted here.

Parents who want to employ our faculty to teach their children must decide to deal with whatever state regulations hang over them. Parents have to decide whether our program is better than any competing program. They have got to decide whether the content of our program meets their requirements. They must decide whether to compromise with the state.

Parents who are deeply concerned about their children are going to make the decision in terms of the needs of their children, and also in terms of their own religious and ideological preferences. If they decide that this curriculum is best for their children.

Here is a list of state regulations, state by state.

Dixie Maid was a ship made from dreams.

She sailed the seas and skies of wonder.

When first conceived

she was made of sheets, pillow cases and rulers.

My little brother and I sailed

from the Spanish Main to Glamouria.

From Lovecraft's Arkham to the Thames.

We robbed the Spanish and the British both.

We sailed the skies of Oz

and down the Amazon

Made friends with monsters galore

and heroes as well.

For he was a jolly good fellow

and I was a Lady Pirette.

When I had to go to work

Dixie Maid got mothballed

in my Sleaze City port

But never forgotten

and always beloved

As I got older, she became a ship of dreams

and now sails memory lane

Still beloved

is the Dreamer's vessel

She'll never be forgotten.

Just passing it along, folks, check it out and decide for yourselves....

Television news is shriveling. It's under attack from a new breed.  You can call them counter-programmers, video freaks, whatever. But (guess what?) they are winning. Why?

(Well, Just Say) You are a reporter for a TV news outlet.

You've become aware of a disturbing trend.  Thousands of private citizens are now analyzing video and photographs of crime scenes and posting their findings.

They're hounds, and they can't be stopped.  They are looking at news footage, casual video, photos, and what they are coming up with challenges the official story lines your network pushes.

Some of the their analysis is ridiculous, but some of it isn't.

There is an obvious way to destroy all this wildcat video evidence in one fell swoop and, at the same time, endear yourself to your bosses. This is how!  Read the rest HERE

Another creative and informative article by Cathy Margolin L.A.c.

Flowering plants are smart. They know how to grab our attention and the attention of passing insects. Flowers are intentionally flaunting sex. Makes perfect sense really, since it's the flowers job to manage the reproduction of the plant. Plants produce beautiful flower petals of varying colors and shapes to advertise the sexual organs ever so masterly hidden inside. Flowers release powerful aphrodisiac scents, an instinctive incentive for insects to come in and play. Nectar and pollen are the insects' rewards and the plant benefits from the insects who carry their pollen to other plants which insures rapid fertilization and reproduction. Flowers are smarter than you might think, but there's more to flowers than just sex.

Lonicerae Flower – (Jin Yin Hua) has been used in Asian cultures for colds, flu and sore throats. Recently, it was one of the four herbs in a formula to combat the swine flu and has proven its antibiotic properties successfully through years of research.

Viola Flower - (Zi Hua Di Ding) is known as the purple flower earth herb. This herb/flower has both anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic effects, meaning it can treat fevers and bacterial infections. It has been used for centuries as an herbal remedy to treat snake bites because it can reduce both swelling and toxicity.

Pagoda Flower – or Sophorae flower (Huai Hua) is used to stop various bleeding disorders. Chinese medicine often uses this herb/flower in the treatment of hemorrhoids and excessive menstrual bleeding.

Chrysanthemum Flower- (Ju Hua) This common Chinese medicine herb has over 30 different specie and is a wonderful natural eye treatment for dry, irritated eyes. It’s also commonly used for high blood pressure, headaches and other aliments in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Safflower also known as Carthamus – (Hong Hua) is a red flower used to treat menstrual disorders. It’s known to invigorate circulation and help dissolve clots. Safflower has been extensively studied and found beneficial for use in patients with heart disease and joint pain. This flower also has a high success rate in treating flat warts.

Magnolia Flower – (xin yin hua) How about a flower to treat nasal congestion? This flower is one of the most effective herbal remedies for stuffy noses and chronic sinusitis.

Lotus Flower – (Lian Zi Xin) I would be remiss not to mention one of the most famous flowers associated with Chinese medicine, the Lotus flower. Eight parts of the lotus plant are used for their botanical medicine qualities. The flower is known to treat bleeding disorders (i.e. bloody noses) and often used for irritability and fevers. The stamen of the lotus flower also has healing qualities. One use in Traditional Chinese Medicine is to reduce excessive dreaming.

Chinese Herbal Medicine is Popular For a Reason

Long, long before the big drug boom, herbal remedies were used to treat people’s complaints and to help them maintain wellness. In China, the recorded history of herbs goes back to 500 AD. The book, known as The Huang Di Nei Jing, The Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine, was the first to mention Chinese Herbal Medicine and it lists 28 herbal substances and 12 prescriptions.

When we talk about Chinese Herbal Medicine, we are talking about a sophisticated form of remedies that has been around much longer than Western Pharmaceuticals, both in China and in most other parts of the world. Herbal Medicine refers to the use of plants, flowers, minerals and animal sources for healing. When I did my internship in China, I studied at a Western hospital that included an herbal pharmacy as well as one for prescription drugs. This is not unusual in China, herbal shops and remedies are quite popular. The interest in using natural ingredients is reemerging in the United States and all over the world.  It makes sense, of course, to look to solutions that are closer to nature and usually have much fewer side effects than drugs. Sometimes, the herbal solutions are also less expensive. The increasing interest in herbs is only one element of a greater movement toward finding healthy alternative solutions to life’s problems.

What makes Chinese Herbal Medicine different from Western herbal medicine?

Chinese herbs are almost always prescribed as formulas of multiple herbs, not as individual herbs. There are many traditional Chinese herbal formulas. A careful balance of several different herbs is specifically tailored for each person. The formula is chosen for each person based on their symptoms and medical history. Unlike Western herbal medicine which tends to use one or two herbs to treat a specific symptom, a Chinese Herbal formula may have as many as 20 different herbs. This is why it is best to have a licensed Chinese Medicine practitioner select the best formula for you.
