In this paper, we study the patterns of women first union formation in Hungary. We use competing risk models (Cox regression) to analyze retrospective data (women sub sample, N=8931) from the Gender and Generations Survey for Hungary, wave 1. We found that cohabitation is increasing popular choice among the young cohorts in Hungary and it works as a marriage replacement for women who start their union career later in life. While there is a well defined tendency of the younger generations to choose cohabitation rather than marriage as a first union, the level of education, being in school, working status and ethnicity play an important role in taking this decision.
Most graduate students rated training in DD as "somewhat important" (55.6%) or "very important" (38.1%), and 85% of students agreed that training in DD would improve their ability to provide psychological services to other populations. At the same time, the majority of students indicated that they had not taken a mandatory or elective course in DD as part of their graduate training (70% indicated "No" to both). Four percent of the sample (n = 11) took both an elective and mandatory course. Of the 15.5% (n = 46) who took a mandatory course, 61% (n - 27) rated the course training as "adequate" or "extensive" (rather than inadequate). Of the 14.5% (n = 41) of individuals who took an elective course, 78% (n = 32) rated the course training as "adequate" or "extensive." Significantly fewer st...

Another fascinating section deals with "transhumanism." [Martin] foresees a world in which artificial organs function better than their natural counterparts, lifespans are measured in centuries, and drugs are used not just to treat mental or physical illness but to sculpt lifestyles. His discussion of an oncoming population crisis, in which births far outstrip the planet's ability to sustain humanity, takes for granted that this crisis looms. In fact, recent work shows that we have already passed the inflection point in population growth, and increasingly, economists are drawing attention to the ways in which a dearth of young adults will afflict societies and economies. Further, Martin's prescription for lowering fertility is based on unsupported assumptions. Pointing out that countri...

The Appraisal Institute of Canada has worked persistently over the past two decades to increase the professionalism of its members. As members of the profession, they all have profited from the sometimes difficult, but nevertheless beneficial process of increased educational and applied experience requirements necessary to obtain and maintain their designated member status. The CRA and AACI designations are well recognized nationally, and most, if not all, major national users of their services appreciate and understand that the members using these designations are well trained, and have achieved a high level of education and applied experience necessary to be granted the use of the designations. Other professions have also increased the educational requirements of their members.
We are not paid anywhere near what the nurses are and rightly so as we don't have the same level of education. However, even though the nurses have been handsomely rewarded when it comes to salary, pensions and benefits over the last decade, thousands of the province's home care workers have not. As an HCA with the home care program for over nine years, I'm frustrated that we're "lumped" together with teachers and nurses and are being forced into a wage freeze. I can assure you that there is much discontent amongst my co-workers. I just don't know what Ms. [Rosann Wowchuk] will gain by having several thousand home care workers on the picket line. In fact, she'll end up paying plenty of overtime to the overpaid nurses who will be responsible for our jobs while we go on strike.
Serious issues exist in our First Nations communities and in particular (for us) in Treaty 3 territory. Things like issues around education, health care, social services, First Nations treaty disputes and land claims disputes. And a lot of it has to do with the federal government which we are aware of, but we feel if we are working together we can accomplish great things and that is really what we are setting out to do," said [Duguid]. "As many of our Chiefs mentioned to Minister Duguid, our interests are not simply stakeholder interests, we never gave up or ceded our ownership of the territory of the Treaty 3 Anishinaabeg. Reconciliation needs to begin at the gap between our understanding of who has the right to regulate throughout the treaty territory. "We have young people on First...

The Winnipeg Free Press editorial Education shell game must stop (Jan. 28) characterizes the education funding process in support of public education in our province as "a shell game." Further, in a year in which property values have gone through a reassessment and where the average property value from the last assessment period has risen in Winnipeg by some 73 per cent, the editorial predicts that school trustees will use this reassessment as an opportunity to substantially increase school board taxes -- something that it refers to as "pickpocketing. The funding of public schooling will always be both a critically important and a controversial public policy issue, and the balancing of our desire for the best possible education for our children with a fair and acceptable level of taxat...
La persistance en vue de l'obtention d'un diplôme a été étudiée dans un groupe de 944 étudiants du premier cycle (272 hommes; 672 femmes) d'une grande université canadienne sans résidences. Durant une période de six ans, 57,9 % des étudiants ont obtenu leur diplôme, 9 % sont demeurés inscrits et 33,1 % n'étaient pas inscrits ou n'ont pas obtenu de diplôme. Les résultats indiquent que les prédicteurs directs de la persistance sont le sexe, le southen des parents, le stress, la dépression et la moyenne pondérée cumulative (MPC) de la première année d'études. Après l'ajout des échelles d'adaptation de [Baker] et [Siryk] (1985), l'adaptation sociale et l'engagement envers le but et l'établissement d'enseignement sont devenus des prédicteurs directs en plus du southen des parents et de la MP...

It sure can be fun to try. Wine education isn't the snooty, pretentious borefest it was in decades past. Wine's immense popularity has lead to a burgeoning demand for wine and wine-related courses and seminars from the general public, so it needs to be engaging, informative and fun. As a result, there is a variety of styles of wine education sessions that cater to every level of wine drinker. Food and wine pairing courses typically skip the technical side of wine education, leaning instead toward educating the attendee on creating perfect pairings. Whether it be "wine and food of Italy" or "wine and barbecue," these courses provide those who take them with a better understanding of how flavour profiles of wines pair with a variety of spices, sauces, meats and ethnic cuisine. Some restau...
This article reports upon the involvement of Ethiopian-Australian parents in the education of their children attending secondary schools in Melbourne, Australia. It investigates the parents' efforts in providing academic support to their children. The study utilized a qualitative methodology, using interviews as a major data collection tool, and employed secondary school students, their teachers and parents as informants for the study. After the transcription and coding of the interview data, thematic analysis was used. The findings indicated that the majority of the students did not receive academic support from their parents due to the parents' limited educational experience, low socio-economic status and lack of time. Most of the parents had no contact with their children's school. T...
