8 Resources for Women Learning to Code

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter

In today's tech world, we are still seeing a lot of women shying away from STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) industries. I'm not really sure how or why this happened quite to the degree that it has, but it is slowly beginning to change. 

As a result of a lack of women in the field, we have seen many apps/websites that are geared toward men. Sure, there are a ton of apps out there for women, but how many of them were actually created by a women with all of their needs in mind.

 Graphic Designer Angela Cordon said it perfectly, "If there is only one kind of person creating 'programs/applications,' then they are only creating for that one kind of person." This is finally changing and we are starting to see more women who want to create things for themselves.

Women are ready to become empowered and begin coding things that matter to them. Meet-ups, dev bootcamps, and other programs have begun to spring up all around that focus entirely on women who want to learn to code.

Here is an amazing list of resources that have popped up that exclusively teach women how to code.

 

Mother Coders @MotherCoders

Mother Coders is a tech oriented program that provides on-site childcare for moms who want to learn the basics of programming, expand their understanding of the technology landscape, and network with peers, and industry professionals.

 

MotherCoders was founded by Tina Lee, who as a mom herself, understands the challenges moms face when wanting to gain new technical skills. Offering a on-site childcare is an innovative way of helping moms gain access to the technical skills necessary to thrive.

Feminists for Life of America

http://www.feministsforlife.org/                              5377  5406

We have educated the activists about our pro-life feminist history.

We have educated the students.

And we have worked with university administrators during FFL Pregnancy Resource Forum^SM.

  

But no one, not even FFL, has taken on the task of educating the educators about our rich, feminist history -- until now.

So this March, we will make women's history by sharing it with those who teach it.

Feminists for Life of America is pleased to announce our first of a kind effort to provide college professors documentation about the pro-life feminist writings of Susan B. Anthony, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Victoria Woodhull, Mattie Brinkerhoff, Drs. Elizabeth Blackwell and Charlotte Lozier and dozens more.

In celebration of Women's History Month, FFL is presenting copies of "First Wave Feminists: Remarkable Pro-Life Women^® and Other Suffragists You Should Know" to women's historians teaching at campuses across the country.

This is a major next step.

Along with the magazine, FFL has invited each women history professor to research, write and teach this long-hidden history in their curriculum.

The suffragists themselves will speak directly to professors.

Many of them will learn for the very first time that our feminist foremothers opposed abortion because of their belief in the worth of ALL human beings -- without exception.

And to help ensure saturation, FFL has offered to provide 10 copies of the magazine for Students for Life groups on campus and so that they can hand deliver "First Wave Feminists" to their women's history professors. We are pleased to partner with SFLA on this effort. 

 

Along with the magazines, we are also donating our tongue-in-cheek poster featuring Susan B. Anthony" as an "Anti-Choice Fanatic" and links to our color flyer should they want to paper the campus!

Wait until the students get up close to the large poster which reads, "Sweeter even than to have had the joy of caring for children of my own has it been to me to help bring about a better state of things for mothers generally, so that their unborn little ones could not be willed away from them."

The pro-life students will also be given generous quantities of our brochure "Voices of Our Feminist Foremothers" to hand out on campus.

In advance of this effort we made another strategic step to educate educators.  America magazine made my landmark speech, "The Feminist Case Against Abortion" the cover story during the week leading up to the Roe v. Wade anniversaries. Just think how many Jesuits -- the largest teaching order in the world -- now have this material in their hands? (And you can read it for yourself and hear my interview on the Catholic Channel via a link from FFL's home page, www.feministsforlife.org page!

) FFL is grateful to principled and visionary women, Pat Goltz and Cathy Callahan, who founded FFL a year before the Roe v. Wade decision was handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court. It was Goltz first met suffrage leader Alice Paul; Paul told Goltz that Feminists for Life (FFL) members were not the first pro-life feminists. She told Goltz that the first wave feminists like Alice Paul herself opposed abortion too. The Board of Feminists for Life commissioned the late Mary Krane Derr to research The Revolution published by Susan B. Anthony and co-edited with Elizabeth Cady Stanton and others-as well as Woodhull and Claflin Weekly published by the radical sisters Victoria Woodhull and Tennessee Claflin. Other FFL historians dove deeper bringing our rich pro-life feminist history "forward into light." While seeking solutions in homes, the workplace, in schools and in the community - especially for those at highest risk of abortion-we stay true to our core feminist beliefs of nonviolence, nondiscrimination and justice for all. While we walk our talk, it is important for us to ever remain heralds-heralds of good news, that women deserve better than abortion and every child deserves their chance at life. FFL has a history of efforts that go viral, like our College Outreach Program that focuses largely on pregnancy resources on campus. Our feminist history is the other key component. Wouldn't it be even better if it was just a well known fact taught in every curriculum, on every campus-that students learned that our first feminists were pro-life?   Let us envision a day when students know they have a richer legacy than abortion left over from the seventies women's movement. These three educational projects are strategic steps towards that goal. Your gift now will ensure the torch shines brightly for those who teach today, and tomorrow. March forth!

Secret Life Of Babies: promo

Statement Women of the World

Statement Women of the World

See babies as you've never seen them before. Beautifully shot, heart-warming and scientifically revealing, Secret Life of Babies offers a fresh perspective on baby development with stunning timelapse footage and amazing facts.

Babies have a natural reflex that stops them from breathing through their nose when submerged under water.

 

What can a baby see and hear? How does a baby explore the world? Why can they swim underwater? How do they communicate? And why do toddlers have temper tantrums?

The first two years are the most important of a human’s entire life. We grow more, learn more, move more and even fight more than at any other time in our life. It’s when we learn to walk, talk and socialize.
Featuring babies of all shapes and sizes, Secret Life of Babies discovers how a baby’s rapidly changing body affects its behaviour and also meets the miracle babies who have survived against all the odds.

New filming techniques offer a fresh perspective on baby development, starting with newborns and moving through their growth as they become toddlers. Babies have more bones in their body at birth than an adult does, yet they don’t have kneecaps. They laugh 300 times a day, but in the first few months can’t produce tears.

Most impressively, babies are able to breathe and drink at the same time, and recognize every sound produced in every language of the world. Babies' brains can even hear and learn while fast asleep.

It’s a truly remarkable period of change, and yet we remember none of it. We’re too busy developing our brains to form any long-term memories. And it’s only in the last few years that scientists have begun to truly unlock what’s going on.

Using this new research, Secret Life of Babies reveals what happens to us all and what it’s like to be a baby from their perspective.

The documentary also shows how impressive babies are through some truly powerful and inspiring personal stories.

The baby who survived being blown off a pier in his stroller, trapping him under freezing water for ten minutes; the twins who have learnt to talk in sign language at just two years old; and the baby whose brain is starting to rewire itself, despite the fact that half his brain was removed to stop seizures when he was just a few months old.

The Secret Life of Babies is produced and directed by Barny Revill. An Oxford Scientific Films production for ITV.

Canadian Women Near Total Enslavement (Servitude, Subjugation). Health Canada decision on abortion pill set for mid-January

Globe and Mail - December 23, 2014

 

Health Canada decision on abortion pill set for mid-January

 

Health Canada received the application in October, 2012 for approval of mifepristone, already available in 60 countries

 

KELLY GRANT

 

Health Canada has set an internal deadline of mid-January to finally make a decision on the abortion pill, a drug that is already available in 60 countries but has been stuck in Canada’s drug-approval pipeline for more than three years.

 

The pro-choice advocates and researchers who have been helping a small European drug company with its Canadian application say they have encountered an unusual amount of antipathy from the regulators who will decide if Canadian women get access mifepristone, a pill that can end an early pregnancy when combined with a drug that is already sold in this country.

 

More than 700 days have passed since the company resubmitted its application at the request of Health Canada in October, 2012 – that is more than twice as long as the regulator’s 300-day standard for a first decision on a new drug.

 

The lag occurred even though the department’s deputy minister told a House of Commons committee in November of last year that mifepristone “would go faster than normal applications,” because of its widespread use.

 

Despite the delay, the leader of the organization that represents abortion providers in the United States and Canada believes Health Canada is poised to approve the drug. The decision could significantly expand access for women who live far from the urban centres that have most of Canada’s abortion facilities.

 

“Canada is the only developed country in the world without the gold standard for medical abortion care. It makes no sense,” said Vicki Saporta, the Washington-based president of the National Abortion Federation (NAF.) “We have responded and the manufacturer has responded to every concern [the regulators] have raised ... we do expect that they will approve it in January.”

 

Health Canada would say virtually nothing about the mifepristone application, citing confidentiality policies. It refused to divulge internal deadlines, the date the application was filed or the name of the drug company.

 

But The Globe and Mail has learned the applicant is Linepharma International, a small manufacturer based in France and the United Kingdom that makes only two drugs: mifespristone and misoprostol, the second drug required for a medical abortion.

 

One of Linepharma’s advisers and board members is André Ulmann, a French doctor and one of the fathers of medical abortion. He was the international project leader for the development of RU-486 – as mifepristone was originally known – at the French pharmaceutical giant Roussel-Uclaf in the 1980s.

 

The company donated the U.S. rights to mifepristone to a U.S. non-profit organization called the Population Council, which got the drug approved there in 2000.

 

At the time, the director of the organization’s reproductive health program was Beverly Winikoff. She is now the president of Gynuity Health Projects, a U.S. not-for-profit research group that has been providing pro bono support to Linepharma for its Canadian application.

 

“There seemed to be a lot of negativity toward this drug in some of the meetings I attended,” Dr. Winikoff said. “I’ve been in a lot of regulatory meetings and the Canadian one was unusual in that people were attacking in a way I wouldn’t have expected in a regulatory meeting.”

 

A spokesman for Health Canada declined to address that characterization directly, but said in a statement that, “Health Canada undertakes a rigorous review of every drug submission, holding companies accountable for providing detailed and scientifically defensible information.”

 

In October, 2011, Linepharma International filed a new-drug submission for its Mifepristone Linepharma 200 milligram tablet, which it aims to sell in combination with misoprostol, according to Marion Ulmann, the company’s chief operating officer.

 

After Health Canada requested more “quality documentation,” Linepharma resubmitted its application in October, 2012, Ms. Ulmann said by e-mail.

 

In an earlier interview, she called the Health Canada process “very smooth,” and said she had no complaints.

 

Ms. Saporta, on the other hand, echoed Dr. Winikoff’s concerns.

 

Asked about complaints that the review has been slow and difficult, Health Minister Rona Ambrose said: “I think if you talk to any drug company on the drug approval process, they might say the same thing. I’m not involved in any drug approvals. What I hear from drug companies is the process is very rigorous. But I think it needs to be. Drug safety is very important.”

 

Safety concerns have been raised about mifepristone. A 27-year-old Quebec woman died during a Canadian clinical trial of it in 2001, which anti-abortion activists have raised in their campaign against the pill.

 

“It’s anything but perfectly safe ... it’s a deadly cocktail for the baby certainly, but also for the mother,” said Mary Ellen Douglas, a national organizer for the Campaign Life Coalition, which puts on the massive National March for Life at Parliament Hill every year. Last year’s theme was keeping RU-486 out of Canada.

 

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has identified at least 14 deaths after medical abortions in the United States.

 

In six of the most concerning cases, the women died of septic shock after they were infected with an unexpectedly lethal strain of a bacteria called Clostridium sordelli. But the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that strain also killed women during other reproductive events, including surgical abortions, spontaneous miscarriages and births.

 

Clostridium sordelli was responsible for the Quebec woman’s death, and brought an end to the Canadian trials of mifepristone.

 

“A lot of smart people worked so hard trying to figure this one out and decided that there had been a mutation in the bacteria,” said Ellen Wiebe, the Vancouver doctor who led the Canadian trials. “It was one in a million, but still, there’s a lot more than a million people around, and so we had those deaths. There haven’t been any recent ones.”

 

On the whole, mifepristone is considered extremely safe. A review of 45,000 medical abortions published last year in the journal Contraception found serious complications in just 0.4 per cent of cases.

 

“Every other developed country in the world has this drug,” Dr. Winikoff said. “Why not Canada?”
