NEW YORK (PRWEB) FEBRUARY 19, 2019
As many as 10 to 15 percent of school-age children are dyslexic, and the International Dyslexia Association estimates that there are 1 billion people with dyslexia worldwide. In a new interview with C. M. Rubin, creator of The Global Search for Education and founder of CMRubinWorld, Fredrik Wetterhall, the co-founder of Lexplore, discusses the new technological advances in the AI sector that provide screening for evaluating students’ reading levels. Lexplore uses the latest artificial intelligence technology to better recognize dyslexia in children early on in their academic careers. According to Wetterhall, the educator can “visualize the cognitive process that is happening when a child reads.” Lexplore’s use of eye gaze data gives teachers “a clear view of reading,” as it allows them to see “how the child is reading and how the struggles of dyslexia impact the reading process.” He adds that scientists are at “the embryonic stages of what artificial intelligence is capable of doing.”

==========================
I want to bring your attention to an issue that is deeply troubling all of us in the pro-life movement.
As the current law stands today, doctors and medical practitioners are legally allowed to refuse medical care to a living, breathing, newborn baby after it has survived a gruesome abortion procedure. This means that the current law of the United States allows for these living, breathing babies to die after birth simply because they were born in an abortion clinic and not a delivery room.
My friend, this is more than an issue of abortion—it’s a matter of letting newborn babies die. Denying medical care to newborn babies and leaving them to die is more than disturbing—it is evil.
This practice of infanticide must end and that’s why Heritage Action is launching a large-scale grassroots campaign to support the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act. This legislation would require that appropriate medical care be given to any child who survived an attempted abortion and that the child be transported and admitted to a hospital. Health care practitioners who violate these requirements would be subject to criminal penalties.
We intend to fight furiously to move this bill through Congress and onto President Trump’s desk.
Our advocacy campaign will utilize every tool in Heritage Action’s tool belt. Heritage Action Sentinel activist leaders will be aggressively mobilizing our grassroots activist army to apply pressure on lawmakers to sign and support this bill. We will deploy thousands of digital ads to educate voters and pressure lawmakers to do the right thing. And finally, our government relations experts will be meeting with key congressmen and senators to build a strong foundation for the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act.
I’ve attached a link to Heritage Action’s press release announcing our campaign to fight for born-alive abortion survivors: https://heritageaction.com/press/heritage-action-launches-advocacy-campaign-for-born-alive-abortion-survivors-protection-act
And if you want to learn more about this legislation and what you can do to make sure your members of Congress support it, then check out our full “issue toolkit:” https://heritageaction.com/toolkit/born-alive-abortion-survivors-toolkit
I know that an issue like this is important to you, so thank you for your time. My team and I will be sure to keep you updated every step of the way of the fight.
Thank you for your time.

DEBUT EP OUT MARCH 22
New York, NY - February 21, 2019 - Alt-pop/rock band Missyou is exclusively premiering their new single and video "Anything" today on Substream Magazine! Give it a spin here: https://bit.ly/2T6FC3T.
"Anything" is the fifth single off of the band's forthcoming debut EP, due out next month, March 22. It follows the release of singles "Child 44," "Know It All," "YourBody," and "Timid & Timbuktu."
On the track, lead vocalist and brains behind Missyou, Blaise Beyhan shares, "This song is about the longing for a time and place when we all had more empathy, and wishing that everyone cared more for one another, and how understanding and love can truly change everything. I wish for a world where willing to die for another is valued above being 'cool,' where passion is rewarded, and not something to be ashamed of. I hope for a time where we don't have to hide who and what we love, and I hope for a culture where we celebrate differences amongst us all."
The four-piece's vision is to create music they can stand behind with an emphasis on storytelling, moving listeners through time. They believe every picture and sound they create is part of a larger story, and above all, in freedom of expression. The forthcoming EP brings Missyou's vision to life through visceral melodies and heavy hitting lyrics.
YourBody is set to release March 22, 2019. For more information, please visit https://www.missyoumusic.com/.

Together, the trio must defeat herhordes of enemies.

"Dwight in Shining Armor" Trailer
Born in Washington, DC and raised on a Rescue Farm in West Virginia, Sloane began his career dancing hip hop, but made the transition to acting at age eight after a chance casting call. At 10, he came to Hollywood to pursue his dreams and just 2 short years later, Sloane booked his best-known role as "Gortimer" in AMAZON's award-winning "Gortimer Gibbon's Life on Normal Street". He has been awarded the Best Actor Award as the Lead in a TV Series by the Young Artists Awards 3 years in a row, has earned the Best Teen Actor in TV Award from the Young Entertainer Awards, and has won 16 awards through the film festival circuit. Audiences may also recognize Sloane from dozens of appearances on other top shows including CBS' "Pure Genius," & "Partners," ABC's "Modern Family," and Nickelodeon's "Big Time Rush."
When he's not booking his next leading role, Sloane spends his free time hiking, going to escape rooms, and gaming, playing everything from classics like Dungeons and Dragon to contemporary video games. He also enjoys writing, having even helped write one of the episodes of "Dwight in Shining Armor," and is currently working on his first fiction novel. Immensely passionate about the environment, animals, children, and veterans in need, Sloane uses the remainder of his time helping in any way he can.
