In earlier days of aviation, flying around the world was the buying viagra ultimate test of www.nextstagecapital.com pilots and generic pack cialis new aircraft and now in the days of alternative-fueled aviation, it seems that test remains the http://www.peseta.org/levitra-price-in-canada ultimate challenge. Bertran Piccard, the pilot of the first nonstop, round-the-world balloon flight, hopes to http://www.absmag.fr/canada-viagra achieve that goal in a solar-powered airplane called the Solar Impulse.
The Solar Impulse design was first unveiled in late 2007, but now a working prototype has been developed. The plane will get a chance to take its first test flight at the end of the year. The test flight will consist of flight sequences over two days and one night. If successful, the team will start preparing for the round-the-world flight.
The Impulse is made of carbon fiber, has a wingspan of 63 meters and is covered in 12,000 solar PV cells. The power generated by the solar cells is stored in over 400 kg of batteries, which allow for flying at night. The plane is propelled by four ten-horsepower electric motors. It can't reach great speeds, meaning circling the globe will take a long time, but if it accomplishes such a feat, we'll know that solar-powered air travel (as well as other types of look there get cialis cheap transportation) could have a real future.

No airplane is large enough to carry enough solar cells to enable it to DO REAL WORK; to carry many passengers or cargo.
However, an airship IS large enough. (not a blimp)
Turtle Airships is working towards this goal, of creating true, viable solar powered flight.

That's not to put down airships of either rigid or non-rigid design. There is a lot they can do too, but like this aircraft, they have their limitations. We need a mix of capabilities, and shouldn't cherry-pick one over the other.

There are batteries that can produce enough storage to power light personal aircraft which exist now. Large business in conjunction with governments and the "controllers" will not allow us to upset their grasp on our pocket books.
When the viagra lowest price real break through methods for electrical flight, solar flight and many other things are finally brought out for use it will be found that the big players which now control the cost of things will have bought up the manufacturing and the costs will be very high to consumers as is cialis 40 mg europe fossil fuel now. In other words it will be sell out your new ideas to us or lose your life. A Current practice.
Take the company Ovionics (sp?)which has a process for making solar cells, cheaply. I believe the name of the inventor and founder of the company of the solar cells was Oshvinsky. Well, along comes Texaco and they buy him out. Guess what, this is the "establishment" procedure. The big players will own the cialis new "things" and continue to next day delivery cialis gouge us. The Ovionic solar cells, now owned by Texaco are not on the market setting new lower prices for solar cell production as Texaco is of he big player approved gene pool.
Take the Tesla electric car for example. The big players are buying into the company, though it recently went public with a stock offering. Foes this means that we will finally get something in our lives that will save us money? Not likely!!!
The Chevy Volt is coming out at a very high price. Battery cost is always claimed as a major cause. The battery advances which have been in use for many decades, but hidden from the public general knowledge, are purposely held back from us. So new inferior battery means are being developed such as lithium batteries, the cost of which is kept artificially high, when batteries that will take a car across the USA with two renewing charges of nexy day shipping usa tramadol 10 minutes or less in time used already exist and are kept from public use by evil designing men.
We will be caused to pay for the huge astronomical costs for infrastructure for charging stations and order cheap levitra different and varying competing methods for fueling new transportation when the technology needed is held back from the public. Why, people that have energy and very cheaply can turn their minds to cleaning out the government and the "controllers" The present set of controls is to always keep us in bondage to taxes for dictatorial government and it's money rich powerful "controllers". The concerns of those that control economies is candian pharmacies viagra to use us as the cash cows that they will constantly bleed.

Positive Discipline Focuses on a Culture of Learning
Kentucky's Jefferson County school district uses nonpunitive measures to encourage good behavior.
As they work to reshape school culture and equip students with strong social and emotional skills, educators in Jefferson County Public Schools have shifted to a constructive, nonpunitive approach to discipline. Classroom management, designed to be both positive and educational, is a key part of CARE for Kids, the social and emotional learning initiative in its second year throughout the Louisville, Kentucky district.
"This strategy changes teachers from being punitive to really helping kids -- and adults too -- examine why something happened, and then consider what we can do to make it right and to make sure it doesn't happen again," says Penny Deatrick, principal of Jefferson County's Chenoweth Elementary School.
The CARE for Kids approach, called "developmental discipline," is based on work by the Northeast Foundation for Children, Developmental Studies Center, and the Minnesota-based nonprofit Origins. It shares some ideas and practices with the positive discipline approach, essentially shifting classroom dynamics so that educators share power and control with students.
The district's training materials explain that this "teaches students necessary skills and gives them new responsibilities when they are ready to handle them." Specifically, CARE for Kids recommends that teachers employ proactive and reactive strategies for optimum results.
Proactive steps, applied before a problem occurs, require teachers to:
- build strong relationships with children, taking care to get to know them academically and personally;
- respect each child and empower him or her to be a significant member of the classroom community;
- work with students to collaboratively create classroom rules and expectations;
- use encouraging language to remind children of expectations and support their success. (Ideally, this language should reinforce, remind, and redirect students, rather than condemn them, and focus specifically on the deed, not the doer.)
Reactive steps, taken when a problem arises, ask teachers to:
- choose "logical consequences to help students fix mistakes and regain self-control;"
- practice mutual problem solving as a tool to learn from mistakes and develop skills.
"One of the common mistakes about this approach is to think it's permissive," says Paula Denton, director of program development and delivery at the Northeast Foundation for Children and co-author of The Power of Our Words: Teacher Language that Helps Children Learn, a text used in CARE for Kids training. "To be respectful of children is not the same as being permissive. We need to help them stay on track, but we need to help them in a way that's positive and supportive of their autonomy."
Problem Solving, Not Punishment
Jefferson County Superintendent Sheldon Berman explains that logical consequences for misbehavior should directly relate to the offense, and help the child learn how to do better next time. "For example, take an incident where a student pushes another student," he says. "You might say, 'Let's give that student a detention so they have to stay after school.' But that isn't a direct consequence. The student doesn't necessarily learn anything from that. The appropriate consequence may be to write a letter of apology."
Teachers and principals in Jefferson County are increasingly coaching children to solve their own problems, using constructive, rather than punitive language, and pushing them to think of better solutions. Pat Gausepohl, principal of Carrithers Middle School, says that when she handles student conflicts today, "I talk to them. I ask each student to tell me what happened, and ask each to listen to the other's answer. I ask, 'What sounds different? How could this have been prevented?'" She knew the approach was working when one kid who had been hit recently said, "I caused this."
At the middle school level, when students act out and need time to settle down, teachers put them in short Take a Break, or TAB sessions, like timeouts, in a quiet corner of the room. If a student needs more serious down time, teachers can send him to a colleague's classroom -- a TAB-out session, or "buddy room." (See the Edutopia.org video referenced above.)
Typically, the buddy teacher will quickly check in with the child, get him started writing his reflections on his behavior, and then carry on with class. For children with the most severe behavior problems, schools still use suspensions as a last resort.
Changing the language they use with students is what Jefferson County educators identify as the hardest part of CARE for Kids, because it's the most subtle and personal. The distinctions can be as fine as saying "Walk" to a running child instead of admonishing him with a more typical, "Don't run."
Return on Investment
Between all the class meetings and proactive measures involved in CARE for Kids, "You may look at the schedule and wonder how can you devote that much time to it," says Deatrick. "But the time you save in the long run, not having to stop and deal with behavior problems on a continual basis -- you get that time back."
Teachers in multiple Jefferson County schools agree. The improvement in students' behavior means they actually get more instruction time, not less, in the end. And the numbers show that discipline incidents have dropped by as much as 50 percent in some schools since CARE for Kids began.
There have been academic boosts, as well, which Jefferson County educators believe are a result of CARE for Kids, though they can't prove it for sure. A University of Virginia study in 2004 found that children in schools using Responsive Classroom, the Northeast Foundation for Children method on which CARE for Kids is partly based, showed bigger gains in reading and math test scores than at other schools. Teachers also felt more effective at their jobs and students felt more positive about school.
A small case in point: One afternoon at Chenoweth, a boy got upset with a classmate while his fourth-grade class was gathering in a circle. "He spit on me!" the boy exclaimed. Then he turned and sat down on the far side of the circle from the offender, to cool down, quietly ending the incident. Deatrick explained later how much that boy's self-control meant; three years ago, her staff had to physically restrain him two or three times a week.
One of the last frontiers of this discipline strategy is building up students' internal motivations for good behavior, rather than relying on external punishments and rewards. For instance, the idea is that a child would wait his turn to talk not because it will earn his class points toward a pizza party, but because he feels good about helping to keep an orderly, respectful classroom.
This is a hard change to make; it involves a shift in age-old traditions of how to negotiate and reward children. So Jefferson County educators are just beginning, and they predict it will take years to complete that change.
"Our whole hope is that we can create kids who have values," says Darren Atkinson, a sixth-grade science instructor and the CARE for Kids teacher leader at Carrithers. "So they're not acting out of fear of being caught. Instead, they are behaving a certain way because it's the right thing to do."

I agree with ALMOST all of
I agree with ALMOST all of this. I have been an educator for over 20 years and have seen elements of the above in many different programs throughout the years. However, I would like to add my 2 cents about the "letter of apology" for pushing or some other aggressive act. Sometimes that is too passive of a consequence. Students learn that if they say the right words, whether through a verbal or written apology, that just puts a band-aid on the action. I would go a step further and have the students involved actually spend some time together...maybe eat lunch with the teacher, work on a puzzle together or some computer time.
Developmental Discipline was created by the Developmental Studies Center and was originally adopted in two Louisville schools in 1992. It subsequently was disseminated to other schools. Its longevity is testament to its effectiveness. Happily, Superintendent Berman saw its value and incorporated it in the Care For Kids initiative.
Eric Schaps
Sometimes treating students like people serves everybody best!
Instant disclaimer: My students are older, so relating to them is a bit easier than, say, fourth grade students. I have found that relating to, or at least trying to, my crew makes life easier, more interesting and certainly more rewarding for everybody. Have an issue? Let's discuss it. Or before issues ever arise, discuss the relevance to why we do it. No arbitrary exercises in futility for the students and frustration for the instructor.
Perfect example? Bathroom passes. "Use less than 5 and get extra credit." Seriously? I have worked my entire adult years and have never had to present a pass, let alone make excuses as to why I should be allowed to go, nor have I ever received a pay raise for not going to the bathroom. Do ground guiding principles (lie those that would be found in an employee handbook)need to be explained at the onset? Absolutely. Do students need to be treated like an unruly lot? No. They will appreciate the trust and you will value the independence they exercise. Do some push the limits? Of course. Address it, move on; problem solving in an authentic environment.
I am an instructor in a technical high school, so we are preparing our students to meet the demands of various industries. Make it real, illustrate the value of everything (from keeping an appropriate appearance, to interpersonal communications) and the value is intrinsic. Why not the same for classroom management? In my class we call it professionalism.

I can help on the toilet! The 12" is from the finished wall to the center (bolt holes) of the toilet flange. The offset for the toilet water supply does have a standard, but is dependent on whether you have a standard toilet! FOr example, I've installed several Toto models (highly recommended) that require the water to be further from teh center line than "normal" because of the shape of the fully faired base.
As to the other stuff, the supply lines for say a sink should account for the fixture that you are going to use - say if the faucet has attached lines, you don't want to have to try to extend then, and you don't want them looping all around. Also, you still want to be able to get to them, so you don't want them too high up, either. SO, while "normal" has its place (and the toilet flange is one that is pretty much truely standard for the vast majority of items), it sometimes depends on the actual stuff selected.
For a shower valve, if the owner was 6'6" tall, you'd want the shower head higher than normal (or adjustable), and you may want the valve higher, too. For a tub/shower combo, if you wanted to adjust the thing while sitting in the tub, you wouldn't want it too high. The tub filler needs to be a specified height above the rim of the tub, but other than that, some like a waterfall, even ceiling mounted!
One of the pros can probably give you some "standard" values, but I've found there is a lot of lattitude, and standard may not work with the specific stuff you select to install.

D-G-F takes a mentoring program to the next levelDilworth, MN (WDAY TV) -- There are great benefits for children, who team up with a mentor. And while schools in our area have explored and implemented this idea, D-G-F schools has taken it to a new level.
By: Kevin Wallevand, WDAY
Dilworth, MN (WDAY TV) -- There are great benefits for children, who team up with a mentor. And while schools in our area have explored and implemented this idea, D-G-F schools has taken it to a new level.
When Mandy Marcil isn't making headlines with her athleticism, she is winning points with something she values even more. Changing the life of an elementary student, 8-year old and second grader Ren Decker.
Ren: "We do fun stuff together and we do awesome things."
Mandy Marcil: "When i open the door and see how happy Ren is, that makes me just as happy that makes me excited. Read or whatever we do."
Ren: "Because we are family. Family together."
In a new, but exploding program, DGF is teaming up stand out high school students with grade school kids just down the hall.
"Ready to go."
18-year old Kurtis Trautmann is a junior,
"How is your family doing?"
His 4th grade buddy is Jared Woods. They meet for breakfast in the lunchroom, talking before school and after school, going over homework. It has changed both of them in way no textbook or football game will.
Jared Woods: "Usually every morning we talk, if you have problems at home you can talk about that i think it is cool that the high schoolers would do this."
Kurtis Trautmann/Mentor: "I just think the biggest thing for me is when i tell Jared we need to go to talk just the smile on his face is brightens my dad."
And without even planning for it, teachers and administrators have witnessed better grades and improved attendance.
Shannon Dahlberg/DGF Principal: "It is phenomenal, the kids are so excited."
Tony Reno/DGF Teacher: "I have high school kids bringing to me handmade cards written by the elementary kids it is so impactful for both the hs and elem kids."
What's so unique, DGF started this on their own. Some children who needed that extra person in their life. Guidance, a smile and an ear from a teen-ager, who have become so attached to their grade school buddies, some promise to maintain connections, while they are to college.
D-G-F may work at getting the junior high students involved in the program next year.

Hansel and Gretel Boots
At long last, the Hansel and Gretel boots are here. This design was created late one night over a year ago after reading the children the classic bedtime story. I never intended for these to be my first manufactured product, but I had overwhelming interest from one international customer and ended up taking them into production.
They are made of white faux fur with tan suede straps. The boots are lined with organic fleece, have a tan outsole made out of recycled rubber, and have velcro closure. Each pair comes in an organic cotton labeled fabric bag.
The shoes are available in size 1-7. The Hansel boots have straps, while the Gretel boots feature adjustable laces.
Size........ Age(months).......Outer Sole of shoe, in Inches
..1................0-3................... 4"
..2................3-6................... 4.5"
Sizes relative to age serves as a guide only. Whenever possible, I recommend measuring to ensure proper fit.
Have your child stand on a piece of paper {wearing socks or tights, however he/she would wear the shoes} and mark the toe and heel. Measure the distance, then add 1/4" - 1/2" depending on how much growing room is desired.
Please keep in mind that these shoes have soft soles. This makes them light-weight and comfortable for your little one. The rubber soles are thin, flexible, and waterproof, not heavy and stiff. They are durable enough to handle all outdoor surfaces, but are not recommended for heavy playground use.
Mia Joie is an eco-friendly and boutique line of products with limited availability. The price is $32.50. All domestic boot orders will ship on or before December 18 and arrive in 2-3 days. International customers, please contact me for shipment details and pricing.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!

While we won't be purchasing these boots (Lola would do a number on the white) they are beautiful! I think I love the Hansel pair the most! Miss Mia's hair is so cute in the pictures and speaking of pictures, they are beautiful!!!
Congratulations on your success and hard work! Your shoes are beautiful! We can't wait for the Rae Lynn's to arrive in the future!

To confirm, the Gretel boots are the boots Mia is wearing and the Hansel boots are the ones the blonde little girl and boy have on...correct?

Oh my gosh I almost passed out thinking I missed this thing entirely, I was waiting for it all day and I guess this was after I settled in last night. I am so excited for you and all of your success. I will be keeping an eye out today.
- December 14, 2009 at 8:24 AM
- Jessica Haley said...
Anon, you are correct. The Gretel boots have the ties and the Hansel boots have the straps.
Meredith, nothing has sold out yet :)
However, I did make the post fairly late yesterday. I am trying to take all time zones into account, and didn't want sizes to sell out before customers on the east coast or in Europe may have even seen it. This is why I suspended the link. I wish I could just post everything by size, but Paypal doesn't give 14 options {which I would need} for a paypal link. *sigh* I'm sorry, I feel like it's confusing...

Thanks is not enough for all the amazing work you do and your awareness of every little detail. Please remember we all want you to take time for yourself and your family, not just now but WHENEVER you need it. I have no doubt it is a hard thing to do, but when you can you must!
I can only speak for myself, I don't find the PayPal link confusing and it is WAY less stressful than etsy (my blood pressure can't handle etsy or ebay right now haha!). What *is* confusing is there are two Merediths posting on your blog. I always have a HEY THAT'S MY NAME! moment when I cross paths with another Meredith.
I'm such a dork sometimes.
Really do hope all is as ok as it can be for you and your family right now!

So sorry for your loss.
I've been trying with a vengeance to purchase my first pair of coveted Mia Joies but keep missing out. Since this is the season to "believe", I'm going to believe really hard that I won't miss the next chance. Thank you for creating such beautiful things.

i absolutely LOVE your work but am SO sad to say that i ALWAYS seem to JUST miss out!!!! i was so sure i'd be able to partake of the Hansel/Gretel sale on the first round...i'm very saddened by this and am hoping to be able to make my purchase whenever the next link is posted, etc.

Woo Hoo!! So happy to see that those beautiful Hansel/Gretel shoes are here!! So sad, to see that I missed out the first go-around..and I'm on the west coast. What a slacker I am...LOL I'll be blog stalking for sure! Keeping my fingers crossed that I'll get the size/s I need :)
Thank You Jessica for all your hard work and talent! You are simply an inspiration!

Okay, I must be in Bizzaro World. I checked yesterday and nothing was listed. I checked this morning and so many have been sold that I have to purchase tomorrow. I literally stopped and looked at the calendar to make sure I didnt miss a day. But I wasnt in a coma...I'm just not checking back often enough!!! Shame on me. Will wait patiently for tomorrows listing.
P.S. I'm so sorry for your loss. May he be at peace in heaven.

Hey Jess, the link isn't working, it keeps giving a paypal error message!
- December 14, 2009 at 5:34 PM
- Jessica Haley said...
Rocio, you are right to be confused! The paypal link was only up for a very short time rather late last night, and I sold a lot of orders very quickly--in particular, many orders of the same style and size. A paypal button does not have enough optionsfor me to manage my inventory by style and size. So, I need to be able to monitor the sales, so I don't over-sell a certain size. I hope that makes sense! Anyway, it's up again now.
- December 14, 2009 at 5:36 PM
- Mrs.LifeAccounts said...
Ok Jess, after much freaking out and trying for 15 minutes on internet explorer I switched to another computer with firefox and it worked through there, so for any people having problems ordering through IE, try another browser! Every single time with IE it would give me a "sorry this transaction can't be completed message" immediately when I clinked the link.
- December 14, 2009 at 5:45 PM
- Jessica Haley said...
G'ah Jen, I'm sorry... what a mess about the browsers. This is interesting. I mean, I sold 50 pairs in that past 10 minutes....

Thank you so much for the chance to get in on these. I assume that we will get email notification if the sizes ordered are sold out, is that correct?
So excited to get my hands on these!!! Thank you!
- December 14, 2009 at 5:58 PM
- christy said...
I'm so excited that I was able to purchase a pair of the Gretel boots (I hope my size didn't sell out even though it let me purchase). I completed my order before I thought to change the shipping address that I have saved on PayPal. I sent you an e-mail requesting that they be shipped to another address. Thank you!
- December 14, 2009 at 6:02 PM
- Jessica Haley said...
Michelle, I will not sell you a size and then tell you it's not available :) If I sell out of one size, I will suspend the paypal link again, and figure something out.
- December 14, 2009 at 6:06 PM

50 pairs in 10 minutes!! Wow that is remarkable

Hi Jessica, It's been a while. I placed an order tonight (after midnight for me) and am excited to receive them as always. I know Maya will love them. She wore/played with her red shoes so much she split the back of one!

May the new year bring prosperity, peace and joy to you and all you hold dear.

I had the same problem, what I ended up doing was downloading and installing the Firefox browser (I was using Avant - thank you to Mrs.Life Accounts!). Then I didn't experience any problems using the paypal link with Firefox - hope this helps!

Jessica--you are such a rockstar! I was one of your 1st Etsy customers when you were selling those adorable felt flower clippies :) I have several pairs of your baby shoes that didn't sell in my store and I am SO happy to have them for my little girl coming this Spring! :) You are so talented and I am so excited to see you grow so much!!

Ok your shoes are super addicting and that PayPal link is staring me down. I so want to get more shoes because I can and that's a rarity with your shoes but crazy to think of my daughter being 2 years old when she is just now 4 months. I think I am going to dream about these cute boots tonight.

Kristy {Angel Warrior}, it's quite a unique experience: both exciting and nerve-racking. Robert was in the living room when I first reissued the paypal link today and my phone {I have a blackberry} was ringing incessantly. Robert looked at me with raised eyebrow and asked if they were all sales, to which I replied: "um..." *gulp* "yes." Did I expect this? No. Never.
I know it's been like this--selling in a frenzy--since July, but I still don't expect it. In fact, each new listing, I think, "This time some items will sit around for a while. I'll be okay with that." But they don't. I feel blessed. Stressed out, but blessed for sure.
At this point I have suspended further sales. I have not sold out; in fact, I have not sold many of the smallest sizes. However, I have sold much more than I anticipated and am close to selling out in size 4. Also, these are time-sensitive orders, and each order requires more than just putting items in a box.
I feel so bad that customers are installing browsers! Gosh, I'm so sorry! I hate that the sale is so inconvenient. Above all, I really want my customers to be happy, and I mean that in a very sincere and non-kitschy sort of way. Robert and I prayed that things go smoothly, that I survive now through the 18th, but most of all that people find joy in my products. That, to me, is paramount.

What an overwhelming last few days for you! For the loss of your grandfather I pray that your family may find peace and may enjoy the wonderful memories your Grandfather left as his legacy. "We go from loving them in the presence, to loving them in the absence."
On a more business minded note, my heart skipped a few beats when I saw that the Paypal link was down after the first nights listing...I mean these are the boots that I have been pining over for months and could I have really missed them? HEHE Well, I am relieved and excited to say that I was able to purchase yesterday afternoon and even on Internet Explorer!!! The first 3 times I tried to purchase it was telling me sold out...but I was patient and figured that the link maybe was not reset and finally that moment of exhileration when I received my purchase complete message:) teehee.
To everyone that is having trouble getting a pair of the amazing Jessica's shoes, I suggest becoming a follower of her Twitter account. I personally have it sent to my cell phone as a text message. For example I was in the grocery store yesterday when the twitter message came through that the paypal link was going back up...I stopped shopping and headed for home immediately to secure my pair of Gretel boots! I know, obsessed doesn't really begin to cover it! Hope that helps...and Good Luck to all of you still awaiting your purchase complete message.
Jessica, I wish that there was a way for more of us to help, but we are glad that you have Jennifer and that you are able to rely on someone for assistance. Take care of yourself, we all care more about YOU than the shoes!!!!

Oh, so sad I missed out, but I do hope you'll repost a link in the next day or so? I'm going to follow on Twitter as another commenter suggested (good idea!).
Hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas!

To Canadian American Family, Mn, Brianne, and others: I do hope to restore the link! However, we are a very small staff here at Mia Joie, so just relabeling, packaging, and shipping order volume in the hundreds is challenging.
I want to make sure I am able to manage the current orders and ship them out before I take any more. Yes, I will post updates via Twitter, and I apologize for the inconvenience of joining another form of social media!
After Dec 18, I will close Mia Joie through the Christmas. I have two small children, and I want to take some time off so I am able to do festive holiday things with them. In addition, I have worked hardest at the business of Mia Joie than any other job in my entire life. I'd like to take a short time to rest, and who knows... maybe even use a little creativity for my own daughter or myself! However, I'll be blogging through it all and probably offering an occassional extra here and there.

Gosh Jessica I wished I lived closer because I would totally come and help you pack orders and such. Just to be amongst all of those fabulous shoes would be payment enough for me.
I just wanted to ask if you have ever thought about having a gallery? So we could send and view pictures of all the well dressed babies wearing your fabulous shoes. You could even have a fan page on Facebook?

Sorry you haven't heard from me in awhile. It's been challenging getting all the orders ready for shipment. It's taking a lot of late nights, help from AMAZING friends, and a few impromptu college hires to get everything ready.
IF YOU PLACED AN ORDER: you should have received an email confirming shipment. If you did not or you have questions, please let me know right away. Domestic orders will arrive 2-3 days from today. I put a note for international customers to contact me b/c they will go out USPS first class {7-10 business days.} If you have ANY question about your order, please email me {firstname.lastname@example.com}
IF YOU DID NOT PLACE AN ORDER: I am undecided whether or not I will take additional orders today or just wait until after Christmas. I run my business in tandem with taking care of my children--not an easy dichotomy. I'll post an update this afternoon. Even if I don't open the link today, I have a few OOAK items I will be posting on my blog over the next week or two. Also, I will of course be taking boot orders after the holidays--hopefully on my website and not the paypal link.
Happiest of Holidays!

Mishna Berura with Rabbi Chaim Trainer DAILY
Local Audio Video Forensics Expert
David Notowitz Assists in High Profile Trial
David Notowitz, has lived in Pico Robertson neighborhood for the past 16 years and during that time he has worked as a very successful videographer for weddings and other simchas. If you have been to any simchas in the past ten years, you have no doubt seen David and his crew filming!
Prior to this, David worked for Financial News Network producing daily news segments. David has edited documentray films such as The Last Klezmer and several feature films for the Disney Channel.
David Notowitz of NCAVF
All of these experiences would prove to be very useful in preparing David for a slight departure from recording simchas to what he is now "focusing" on- audio/video forensics through his company, NCAVF National Center for Audio & Video Forensics.
When David is contacted by attorneys, they will give him video footage of an incident. The video may be from a police car dashboard cam, surveillance video from detectives, or from a security camera. David then will find out if any separate audio exists, and then compiles and syncs the audio and visual together. David will then explain to attorneys the significance in the evidence they have. Often times initially the attorney does not realize just how significant this evidence is. David shows them that by enhancing the video and synchronizing it with the audio, details will begin to emerge in the video that were previously not apparent.
David recently worked with Michael Schwartz on a very high profile case. The Ivory Webb case. In this case, after a 100 mph car chase, the suspect did not stay down and the cop shot him three times and he lived. A witness across the street started video tapeing it on a home camcorder just after accident occured. David enhanced this video and showed the suspect within a moment or two before being shot by the officer. It showed that the suspect had put his hand into his coat pocket. (see video still below)
In this enhanced video still, the suspect in the Ivory Webb case is seen reaching into his coat pocket.
Two and half years ago David was contacted by Michael Schwartz to assist on the Kelly Thomas case, which just ended last week. Two California police officers were charged with the beating death of a homeless man. Police car camera videos were presented by the prosecution and given to David by the defense, Michael Schwartz. David viewed the video. He saw what everyone else saw and what the media showed over and over again on televison, a suspect being beaten by cops. In this case the prosecution claimed several things. One claim was that Michael Schwartz's client, Office Jay Cicinelli had no concern or regard for the suspect (Kelly Thomas).
David, scoured the video and then obtained audio of Officer Cicinelli's conversation with
dispatch. In that audio one can hear Officer Cicinelli calling an ambulance for the suspect. (see the photo below) While struggling and trying to detain the suspect, Officer Cicinelli is seen manipulating the controls on his belt radio and calling for medical help for the suspect. Without the audio synchronization, this would have been totally overlooked.
Officer Cicinelli dropping his tazer so he can call the paramedics. One would only know
this if the audio and video were synronized by David.
Officer Cicinellie is seen strugeling to turn on his radio so he can
call for medical assistance for the suspect.
David also was able to point out that when paramedics arrived Officer Cicinelli was the first person pointing to the suspect, and you can hear the Officer directing paramedics to the injured man. Only after hearing and seeing the audio and video ync of Cicinell talking to the paramedics, does all this come to light. Those who saw this video on television without the audio synchronization totally missed the crucial facts. Luckily for Schwartz's client, the jury did see this evidence.
Through David's work the Defense headed by Michael Schwartz was able to demonstrate that Cicinelli did indeed show concern for the suspect thus helping get a NOT GUILTY verdict from the jury, and keeping his client out of prison.

trial to win the case. (AP photo)
In the Kelly Thomas case David was not called to the stand but in some cases David is called to testify as an expert witness of work he has done and what he hears and sees on the videos.
David, was in the courtroom everyday so that when Michaeal Schwartz needed to have the audio and video presented, David was ready. While David has worked on many criminal cases,the Kelly Thomas case to date has been the largest high profile case David has worked on.
David Notowitz in the courtroom
Without the video, "we would've heard some screaming and crying, but never have seen what happened," said Michael Schwartz, Cicinelli's attorney. "Which was a very measured reaction with police officers trying to control a suspect. The video, in my eyes, is what helped the most," Schwartz said.
Below is an exerpt from an AP news story about the Kelly Thomas case.
And the story encapsulates the work David did for Michael Schwartz and the defense team.
Experts: Video Likely Aided Acquittal Of Officers
by The Associated Press
January 14, 2014 5:27 PM
SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — The district attorney who charged two California police officers with the beating death of a homeless man said surveillance video of the struggle provided clear evidence of wrongdoing. But in the end, the footage wasn't enough and may have helped defense lawyers win the case, legal experts said.
A jury acquitted the two Fullerton officers of all charges on Monday after a trial in which the 33-minute video was the central piece of evidence.
During the trial, defense lawyers used the video to weave a different narrative of events, telling jurors it showed that Thomas didn't follow a lawful order, fled from the officers and struggled violently as they were trying to cuff him.
The video shows that Cicinelli shocked Thomas with his electric stun gun multiple times and struck him on the head and face with the butt of the gun, shattering bones and causing Thomas' eye to hemorrhage.
The officer's attorney, Michael Schwartz, slowed the video down frame-by-frame and told the jury Thomas was trying to grab the stun gun.
"The surveillance video began with Ramos stopping Thomas on July 5, 2011, after the officer answered a call about a disheveled man jiggling the handles of car doors in a busy transit center parking lot.
The footage was synced with audio from Ramos' body microphone to give a fuller picture of the incident.

I haven't been following this thread for a while so excuse me if this has been asked before or is already in the latest build.
I've been using build 3 with great succes.
I live in sweden but have some friends in norway, and their phone numbers with country code. Works nice when i'm in sweden, numbers are recognized. But if i go to norway the numbers aren't recognized anymore.
I didn't get surprised since i didn't have a template for norway, but my question is: Does the latest version handle this? If you have numbers for a country that has no template and they work in your country, but travelling to that country it dont work anymore.
Was thinking that maybe matching the last 7-8 digits in a number could be used as a fallback. But then again this is already solved in the latest build?
In that case i should upgrade.
