Running Time: 90 Min.
Director: Chuck Lords
Companies: Vivid Entertainment Group, Pulse
Cast: Holly Wellin, Jenaveve Jolie, Nick Manning, Lyndsey Love, Roxy DeVille, Diana Prince, Harley, Katarina Kat, Lacey Love, Derrick Pierce, Richard Kline
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Since twins Lyndsey and Lacey Love always work together, it was only logical to build a feature around threeways, which three out of the four scenes are, but it's that last one that's best.
It features Jenaveve Jolie and Roxy DeVille crashing a house where they find Derrick Pierce licking Diana Prince's pussy in the back yard. That inspires the arrivals to get it on orally on the kitchen counter, and before you know it, everyone's migrated to the living room, where Derrick joins Roxy and Jenaveve while Diana solos nearby. And the combinations grow exponentially from there. All the gals get plowed by Derrick at some point, plus Jenaveve and Diana take advantage of Roxy's massive strap-on.
Pre-nom the Roxy/Jenaveve/Diana/Derrick fourway for Best Group Scene.
Retailing: The twins on the cover will attract fans, but tell customers about the great fourway inside.

AbstractThis report describes novel perfluorocarbon (PFC) nanoemulsions designed to improve ex vivo cell labeling for 19F magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). 19F MRI is a powerful non-invasive technique for monitoring cells of the immune system in vivo, where cells are labeled ex vivo with PFC nanoemulsions in cell culture. The quality of 19F MRI is directly affected by the quality of ex vivo PFC cell labeling. When co-cultured with cells for longer periods of time, nanoemulsions tend to settle due to high specific weight of PFC oils (1.5–2.0 g/mL). This in turn can decrease efficacy of excess nanoemulsion removal and reliability of the cell labeling in vitro. To solve this problem, novel PFC nanoemulsions are reported which demonstrate lack of sedimentation and high stability under cell labeling conditions. They are monodisperse, have small droplet size (~130 nm) and low polydispersity (<0.15), show a single peak in the 19F nuclear magnetic resonance spectrum at −71.4 ppm and possess high fluorine content. The droplet size and polydispersity remained unchanged after 160 days of follow up at three temperatures (4, 25 and 37 °C). Further, stressors such as elevated temperature in the presence of cells, and centrifugation, did not affect the nanoemulsion droplet size and polydispersity. Detailed synthetic methodology and in vitro testing for these new PFC nanoemulsions is presented.

I'm trying to have no animation between some of my transitions. I have this bit bit of code:
TextView pulse = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.pulseText);
pulse.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent myIntent = new Intent(v.getContext(), Pulse.class);
startActivityForResult(myIntent, 0);
So to stop animation, I added this after starting the activity:
overridePendingTransition(0, 0);
But that caused an error saying, "The method overridePendingTransition(int, int) is undefined for the type new View.OnClickListener(){}". So then I tried adding
before starting the activity, but that didn't work either. Any ideas?

I'm using OCR Text Recognition integrated into Adobe Acrobat Pro 8 to produce an (invisible) searchable text overlay for text pages I have scanned. This is very neat for copying some phrases to the clipboard or for text searching.
In some cases, Adobe does a rather poor job and in some cases it just produces a few typos, making the corresponding words or sentences un-searchable. In the Adobe Forums, user strontium87 explains that you can manually show the text and then modify with the Touchup Text tool, before setting it to invisible again. Since this method is quite cumbersome - does anyone know of an easier way to do this? Maybe with an external tool?

great room, super clean, pretty decor, cold AC, ceiling fan, VERY comfy bed and luxury beddings! micro, coffeepot and small fridge. and super service!!!
mom and I were looking for lodging for first Monday trade days. I quickly realised I could stay in a b&b cheaper than a hotel. the trip was last minute and I wasn't sure what would be available. sent lots of emails, got lots of quotes from $80 to $120 - a lot of places charge per person per night. the villa 2 we rented was $60 per person per night. 2 queen beds and a day bed. despite less expensive quotes I decided to book with the palm due mainly to all the positive feedback, and boy were we glad! lucille was johnny on the spot to pick up up from our room or at the bottom of the "mountain" and cart us up or down it. she also came and picked us up in her own vehicle when we got stranded trying to take the trolley back. that was over and above service!!! the beds were so comfy that we didn't want to get out of bed and go shop! we REALLY enjoyed our stay and pampered service. when we go back, we won't book with anyone else!!! you get what you pay for!

Two kinds of contemporary developments in cryptography are examined. Widening applications of teleprocessing have given rise to a need for new types of cryptographic systems, which minimize the need for secure key distribution channels and supply the equivalent of a written signature. This paper suggests ways to solve these currently open problems. It also discusses how the theories of communication and computation are beginning to provide the tools to solve cryptographic problems of long standing.

I have a powerpoint slideshow with a series of bullet points. I'd like to change it so that each bullet point appears on the next slide. What is the best way to do this?
Instead of copying/pasting, I'd like to have something like where each slide is defined as the one before it, plus something else. That way, if I make a change to one slide, everything downstream is automatically updated.
Or maybe I can do something with transitions where each bullet appears on hitting the arrow key?
I'm using Office 2010.

SEOUL, Nov. 15 (Yonhap) -- A special United Nations panel on North Korea's human rights abuses has been seeking to determine whether the communist country's massive violation constitutes crimes against humanity, a U.N. special rapporteur on the issue said Friday.
"We have a clear picture of what is happening there. It is the almost-complete denial of the human rights in the country," said Marzuki Darusman in a press conference held in downtown Seoul.
"The commission has been documenting a wide range of rights violations and seeking to determine whether they will constitute crimes against humanity and who or which institution should be held accountable," he added.
He is a member of the Commission of Inquiry (COI), a three-man investigation body led by retired Australian Judge Michael Kirby.
Darusman arrived in Seoul on Wednesday for a three-day visit.
In August, the COI began its investigation in Seoul after the U.N. launched the agency in March under a U.N. Human Rights Council resolution, and it is scheduled to present a final written report on their findings to the human rights council in March next year.
It was the U.N.'s first attempt to launch an official investigative mission on the North's widely condemned human rights abuses.
In order to grasp the situation with regard to the decreasing number of North Koreans crossing the border into China to leave their homeland, he also said the COI "has been seeking an access to China" to see if it is due to the North's tightening up the border or the improved situation in the impoverished communist country.
As a way to improve the human rights situation in the North, he stressed the need to pursue the humanitarian outreach than putting pressure on it.
"Pressure is not going to change anything. In the long run, the humanitarian outreach holds more promise in resolving the (rights violation) problem," he said.
"What I mean here by the outreach is assistance without any condition targeted for promoting health, education, and needs of women and children, for example," Darusman said, adding it will enable "North Koreans themselves to improve the situation that would not require the government to deny rights of its own citizens."
Dismissing arguments that the assistance for the impoverished country has rather allowed the regime to build its nuclear capabilities, he stressed the need for aid without strings attached.
"It is a wrong argument, as the World Food Program, for example, has established that food has reached down to the people, and there has been no diversion of food to the military. Such an argument is not well-founded."
Stressing that every entity that bears interests in North Korea has "indirect responsibilities" in terms of its massive rights violations, he called for the reconsideration of the current way of dealing with the issue.
"North Korea has a primary obligation to ensure the rights of its people, but it is impossible to resolve the situation within the country if we don't address the external factors," he said.
"We cannot separate the two. We've always separated them over the last 10 years, and it turns out to be wrong. We cannot just leave the issue to North Korea."

General/Summary: This is a pleasent new way to approach basketball simulation, but unfortunately too many problems that just ruins the whole game. Nba Shootout 2003 has however improved a lot since 2001. with the right analog stick making it easy to perform crossovers. The problem is that this game still lacks compared to other basketball titles out (live and 2k). The graphics, gameplay and commutary have all improved but still are terrible compared to other b-ball games. Overall this game is a poor nba live knockoff and will never be the best b-ball game out there.Read More
This move may not do much on its own, but it can be very effective when used in combination with a crossover. Check out the video below to see how it's pulled off.Read More
Move Type: Game/Freestyle
Tip: Carry out the move slowly before attempting it at full speed or you may injure yourself.Read More
General/Summary: Overall this game is prettey cool. In the past, 989 has gotten a bad rep and deservedly so. Well, what a surprise to see it finally out doing the well favord EA sports company. In my mind, this game is the best college basketball game out. Now I know that isn't saying much but Final Four is the best option for college b-ball lovers like myself. After seeing EA's March Madness, I had to laugh because it dosen't even offer the option of playing in a season. So unless you want to play a six game tournament over and over, Final Four is the choice to make. However, this game is not without some flaws of its own. The game has prettey good graphics but it still doesn't come up to par with the capabilites of the PS2. The lack of player models is sort of a let down. I understand that you can't make every person in the game down to their exact physical characteristics but a little more than 8 diffent player faces would be nice. Also when playing the game, I was impressed by the movement of the crowed and the chears that performed at various times. However, This game promissed to have the crowds chant authentic school cheers and the band playing the fight songs. I have heard these on a very rare occasion. It would also be nice to have the crowed yell real loud when the visiting team has the ball. The commentary is prettey good. I do wish that they could say a little more though. Every time you turn the ball over like 8 or more times you will hear " They're just givin the ball away tonight." But other than that the sound is good. This game is fun and it allows you to get into it with option of playing a full season and keeping track of rankings, stats, and even 1st and 2nd team all conference and all american awards.Read More
Use this one to startle your defender, but make sure not to let go of the ball. If you do, it could hit them in the face, and they may decide to return the favour. Check out the video below to see the trick.Read More
Move Type: Game
Tip: Positioning of the ball is key. It must be placed close enough to the defender that they attempt to take it, but not so close that they can reach it before you do.
Notes: The original version of this move was invented by Rory "Disaster" Grace, who finished the trick by knocking the ball between the defender's legs with his fist. This is what gave rise to the name "The Punch".Read More
Move type: Freestyle
Tip: Be careful not to bring your legs together too quickly so as to avoid the risk of injury to your knees.Read More
Move Type:Crossover
Tip: This cross is most effective when you already have a little space between you and your defender.Read More

Black box testing
Tests are based on requirements and functionality. Not based on any knowledge of internal design or code.
White box testing
Tests are based on coverage of code statements, branches, paths, conditions. Based on knowledge of the internal logic of an application's code.
Explain the differences between White-box, Gray-box, and Black-box testing.
savitha shetty
- Dec 27th, 2006
White box testing: is done by taking inplementation detais in to consideration, usually done by the developers.
Black box testing: Is done by a seperate testing team to test for the funtionality of the application, by taking requirements in to consideration.
Grey box testing:It is the combination of bith white box and black box testing, done by both developers and testers.
*could u all clear my doubt which is stated below*
Unit testing can also be told as a kind of grey box testing as in black box testing the inputs are to be given in such a way that each and every line of codes are to be tested. so it is a combination of both black box and white box testing.
- Nov 29th, 2011
Hi savitha shetty .... I Agree for whatever you said about white box and black box testing, but I do not agree for gray box testing because gray box testing is not a combination of white, black box testing.
Gray box Testing: Gray box testing is testing the application with database knowledge (SQL Server,Oracle...),
Whatever the input data is entered in the frontend is correctly entered in the backend that is in our database.
Do you have any idea of visual Testing please explain me.
Waseem Ahmed Khan
- Jan 13th, 2012
Hello Ramakrishna,
I agree with savitha shetty, that grey box testing is the combination of of both white box and black box testing and database testing is the example of grey box testing.
How can this possible that you do database testing without any knowledge of application functionality? if you dont have any knowledge of inputs, functionality and coding of an application than it isnt possible to test database testing and i agree your this comment "Whatever the input data is entered in the frontend is correctly entered in the backend that is in our database." but how can you test the black box testing without any knowledge of the front end functionality.
Lets take the scenario;
there are two tables with same name;
a a
b b
c c
And in the web form there is a drop down, in which you select the data, tell me that how would you know that which data come from which table. so, in this case we will use queries to check that selected data came from which table. This is best example of database testing.

Q&A: Cutting Down On Toilet Trips In Late Pregnancy?
Lately I've been needing to pee all the time again (it got better for a little while during my second trimester). What's going on, and is there any way to cut down on bathroom breaks?
Between the masses of extra blood in your body (meaning more fluids running through your kidneys) and the pressure of your ever-expanding (shall we say giant?) uterus, it's no wonder you're spending so much time, er, powdering your nose. You won't find total relief until baby arrives, but here are three tips for spending a little less time on the toilet.
Get it all out
Make an effort to empty your bladder completely each time you pee. Lean forward to add a little pressure to your bladder and get _all _the urine out.Bonus: This also helps prevent UTIs.
Drink the right stuff
Stay away from coffee, tea, and alcohol, all of which can keep you running to the ladies room. (You should be steering clear of alcohol and caffeine anyway, of course.)
Ease up in the evening
Curbing your liquid intake in the hours before bedtime might make your nightly bathroom runs less frequent. If you go this route, just be sure to get plenty of fluids in the daytime — hydration is extra important as you move towards the big day.

But there are so many more ways to experience it than just by taking a dip in the sea. Here are a few ideas that will inspire you to take advantage of the ocean during your visit to the Canary Islands.

Unique Museums in Lanzarote
Lanzarote is celebrated for its uniqueness – a supernatural quality discovered among the lime-green water of El Golfo's lagoon, and the volcanic vastness of Timanfaya National Park. So would you expect anything less eccentric from other sights such as its museums? Indeed, Lanzarote is home to a host of them, and here a few of the most unique ones that it has to offer.

The Fishing Village of Arrieta
Tucked away on Lanzarote's northeastern coast is where you'll find the tiny fishing village of Arrieta. During off season, it's home to only some few hundred people, a number that swells come summertime. Even still, this coastal enclave remains fairly un-touristy, which means it might be just the spot that you'll want to visit in order to soak up some local culture – and some sunshine.

The Village of Teror
Leave Gran Canaria's beaches behind and head inland. That's where you'll find one of the Canary Islands' most dear little towns, Teror. Dear because it's adorable – more on that in a moment – but particularly dear because this village is essentially the religious capital of the island.

Playa Famara
Maybe you've gotten the memo: Lanzarote is a phenomenal destination for all manner of watersports. And while many of its beaches will do the trick, one in particular is especially ideal should you be looking to get your surfing or kitesurfing fix. If that's the case, point your compasses toward the western shore, where you'll want to head to the village of Caleta de Famara and its namesake Playa Famara.

By day, I write software. Not very exciting, except I get to see firsthand why software is so buggy. Most of the rest of my time is either spent on family or 3D modeling/animation. As far as the modeling goes, I do a lot of science fiction shoips/vehicles. I try to constantly improve my skills and techniques, so comments on how I can better do things is always appreciated.

A comfort with competition has never been high on the priority list for raising developmentally-challenged kids. Naturally behind due to motor-skills issues, our caregivers have packaged that with our misinterpreted disinterest, and let this slice of life go by.
Read Whole Story
We love intelligence, we respect intelligence and we laud it. We also have a bevy of assumptions around this intangible, ineffable but very powerful...
If your favorite team or player wins on a given day -- especially if it's a landslide win, then it's likely that "momentum" gets thrown around by people previewing the next event. For better or worse, momentum is one of those concepts that's sticky in our heads.
The fields of (STEM) have as much to do with athletics as the athletes themselves, and the Olympics show us just how much STEM goes into making our athletes, and the fields they compete on, ready for competition.
Today there are close to 500,000 student-athletes competing in the U.S., but only around 1 percent of them will ever go pro. Some would argue, though, that student-athletes are already professionals, and that the idea of amateurism is a misguided one.
Given the critical role sports can play in the lives of youth -- increasing healthfulness, graduation rates and employment success later in life -- we must ensure that everyone can take part, regardless of sex, gender identity or sexual orientation.
The fundamental lessons I learned on the basketball court have shaped the way I handle pressure, success and failure in the business world. Competitive sports equipped me with the tools I need to thrive in Corporate America and beyond.
We are not doing student athletes a favor by admitting them into academic programs that they are not qualified for.
While athletics support a residential learning experience, the number of student athletes contributing to a balanced admissions class, the win/loss record, and the ability to keep alumni interested and involved typically define its value to the institution.
It's a rare opportunity to get one-on-one time with a revered basketball player, let alone when said athlete is three-time NBA champ Dwayne Wade. But earlier this month in Miami, that's exactly where a group of journalists found themselves.
I have been thinking a great deal about what it takes for athletes to achieve what I consider to be an essential goal in all of their efforts. In doing so, I have come up with my Three Steps to Sports Success.
Fearing that one person would use locker room myths as a tactic to remove me from my coaching position scared me to death. One crazy parent could turn my life upside down and take me away from something I love. Rather than risk this, I stayed closeted and lived a secret life.
As an educator, nothing thrills me more than to see students expressing their knowledge in creative ways, performing or displaying their artistic craft or competing in an athletic contest for which they have spent hours in preparation.
Considering I just spent two hours on a soccer field sideline, soggy wool blanket draped over my shoulders while sleet pounded my face and successfully circumvented my winter coat and nestled against my bare skin, I'm perfectly OK with failure.
I think you don't have to be an athlete to get "in the zone." Students know it when something they have been struggling to learn all at once comes clear and the answers flood in. I had that experience when I was a little kid, flummoxed by mathematics.
Special Olympics does not exist to provide a service or to help a single subsection of the population. It is an organization that functions at full strength when communities are working together.
Being able to read body language is an essential skill for athletes who need to think quickly on the field or court. What are some of the body language cues in sports?
This International Day of the Girl, we must urge communities, governments and families here and around the globe to recognize that gender equality in sports is not only a gateway for girls to excel in youth, it is a key to personal, national and international prosperity.
Security guards and police officers at Oakland's O.co Coliseum tried to detain an Athletics fan sitting in the front row near home plate during an ALD...
Let's relax, and more importantly, let our kids relax. Research shows that nearly 80 percent of all children who play adult-organized youth sports drop out by the time they're 12. The reason most often cited is that it's no longer fun.
It's a clear sign Putin is doing everything within his power to prevent a massive social controversy from occurring. In the end, it will be a surprise if all the political maneuvering and rhetoric has any effect on the Olympics.
We have a new athletic superstar this Labor Day -- the amazing swimmer Diana Nyad. If you saw her wading haltingly onto the shore of Key West after this historic swim, you had to feel her sheer exhaustion along with the thrill of her incredible feat.
An intriguing, technological watershed is fast approaching for Athletics -- that defining moment when an athlete with artificial limbs shatters an "able-bodied" world record.
The viewpoint of Division III student-athletes is that they want first and foremost the opportunity to develop themselves in mind, body and soul.
Members of the MAVBBL, with over 20 teams from Providence, RI to Virginia, spend the entire summer and much of the fall traveling to scattered venues to perform in their vintage, heavy wool uniforms.

CECIL HURT: NFL Draft decision weighs heavy on some Alabama players
Published: Saturday, December 28, 2013 at 11:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, December 28, 2013 at 11:58 p.m.
The University of Alabama football team received some welcome, if not entirely unexpected, news Saturday when junior linebacker Trey DePriest announced he would come back for his senior season in 2014.
DePriest will have the huge shoes of C.J. Mosley to try and fill, but he has the physical ability to at least be a fair replica.
There are several decisions yet to be made, however, that will impact the coming Crimson Tide season.
The biggest bonus would be if AJ McCarron could come back for a sixth season at quarterback but NCAA eligibility rules can't be stretched that far.
Finding McCarron's replacement will trump all other considerations as far as Alabama making it to the first four-team BCS playoff next season, which will be the long-range goal.
The supporting cast is yet to be determined, though.
Alabama is at the point as a program where it loses juniors to the NFL Draft on a regular basis and it is hard to argue, financially, with many of those decisions, whether it is Julio Jones, Eddie Lacy, Andre Smith, Marcell Dareus or others.
On defense, safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, linebacker Adrian Hubbard and defensive end Jeoffrey Pagan will all take a look at an early exit. Clinton-Dix is generally considered a first-rounder and will surprise no one if he decides to test the NFL waters.
Hubbard, a fourth-year junior, actually gave strong consideration to leaving last year. He did not explode into first-round status this season, but will probably consider departure even more strongly than a season ago. Pagan said last week that he has made no decision yet.
Another year, especially if it helped him improve as a pass rusher, would probably raise his status but that doesn't automatically mean he will see things the same way.
On offense, Cyrus Kouandjio is an interesting case.
Tackles are always at a premium for NFL teams, nearly all of which were built on a blueprint of finding a passer, protecting the passer and defending the passer. That is why quarterbacks, tackles and cornerbacks are highly coveted.
That means Kouandjio is a desirable commodity. But there are some factors that he should at least consider. While his status will be high, another good season would improve that.
It is hard to see Jameis Winston not being the No. 1 overall pick next year, barring the unforeseen. But as the top tackle, Kouandjio would almost certainly be in the Top 5.
There are a few other considerations. Kouandjio is only 20 years old, and won't be 21 until next July. Unlike many offensive linemen, he never redshirted. He has an older brother on the team and the two could finish their careers together next season.
That might not outweigh an immediate NFL payday and while I don't presume to know the financial status of most Alabama players, I generally assume that millions of dollars are tough to turn down.
It is possible that the Sugar Bowl will be a farewell for many Alabama non-seniors. But it shouldn't necessarily be an automatic decision but the result of careful consideration, in nearly every case.

Lay the necktie flat, backside facing up. Place your folded glasses on top. The top of the glasses should line up with the inside of the tie. Fold the rest of the tie over the glasses, and cut it so it extends 1" beyond the top of the glasses.
Fold 1" of the cut edge toward the back of the tie and whipstitch it in place. If the tie's internal padding sticks out, turn that under as you stitch.
Most ties are made with a hand-sewn center seam — you'll need to remove some of this seam in order to fit things inside your case. Use a seam ripper to remove the stitching. You only need to remove enough stitching to accommodate your glasses. If your tie has a label, remove this too.
Set your glasses aside and fold the tie as shown. Pin the 2 layers together and hand-sew them along both sides with a hemstitch or a tiny whipstitch. Stitch only through the topmost layers of fabric — you don't want to sew the front and back of your case together!

I'm moving my blog over to WordPress.org at the moment. Is there any way of importing the WordPress 'Likes' my posts received in the .com blog?
I assumed this would be brought over with the rest of the content but it doesn't seem to have done.
Thanks - I'd hate to lose all the 'Likes' I've received in the past - is this something that Jetpack can do maybe?
Also has anyone got a good way of adding a WordPress 'Like' button to a .org blog?
thanks :)

Welcome to one of six of interconnected pages devoted to exploring the facets of reading and writing workshops in adolescent classrooms. This page is provides an overview of the materials needed to set up reading and writing workshop, including sample schedules for implementation and advice on libraries and books.
Follow these links to explore other components of reading and writing workshop:
According to Nancie Atwell, author of In the Middle, an essential part of running an effective reading and writing workshop is organization. This anecdote from In the Middle, speaks to the importance of organization, is a conversation that takes place after Atwell is observed by Donald Graves:
At the end of the day Graves came and stood in my doorway with his coat on, smiling. "What are you smiling about?" I asked.
"I'm smiling at you," he said. "You know what makes you such a good writing teacher?"
Oh God, I thought. Here it comes: validation from one of the world's most famous writing teachers. In a split second I flipped through the best possibilities. Was he going to remark on the piercing intelligence of my conferences? My commitment to the kids? My sensitivity to written language?
"What?" I asked.
He answered, "You're so damned organized."
By organization I mean discovering what writers and readers need and providing plenty of it in a predictable setting. (89-90)
In order to be effective a workshop classroom must be run efficiently and predictably. Students must be given time each week to do reading and writing. The following sections offer some suggestions for setting up the classroom in an organized and functional way so that the physical and material parts of reading and writing workshop are running smoothly.
|As a part of setting the tone in a reading and writing workshop, Nancie Atwell recommends posting quotes around the workshop room. These are printed Appendix N in her book In the Middle.
In order to run a successful workshop classroom, organization, preparedness, and clear expectations are key. In her book In the Middle, Atwell outlines how she prepares her folders, status of the class, and classroom order for the first days of school. She has well-ordered, clear, manageable systems that set both the teacher and student up for success.
In order to enable creativity and growth, readers and writers in a workshop classroom must be able to know what they need and where to find it. Teachers in reading and writing workshops will need to find systems that work for their classrooms.
Sample organizational ideas:
|Student files for keeping track of work for portfolios and other items of interest.
|This box stores student writing portfolios. These are over-sized envelopes in which students store their published works.
|Each table has a box in which to store their reading and writing notebooks and folders. These are kept in a central location in the classroom for ease of access for everyone.
Books & the classroom library
The classroom library is an important element in the reading and writing workshop. As Fountas & Pinnell write, "the collection is carefully structured and its importance must not be minimized, since for most students it represents their primary literacy resource for the year" (Fountas & Pinnell, 2001, 89).
Atwell minimizes the management of her middle school classroom library by eliminating a check out system. Instead, each time she adds a new book to her library, she write her name in red permanent marker on the top and puts a green dot sticker on the spine. She prioritizes other tasks in her classroom over "chasing after missing titles" (Atwell, 160).
In Guiding Readers and Writers, Fountas & Pinnell recommend that a classroom collection of texts include a variety. They offer the following twelve suggestions in their book (Fountas & Pinnell, 2001, 89):
- Books for literature study--either read by the teacher or read by the students.
- Poetry Anthologies of various types--theme, poet, etc.
- Picture books that offer students the opportunity to experience a piece of work with aesthetic unity--text, illustrations, layout.
- Books for reference and information, such as dictionaries, atlases, and thesauruses.
- Books organized by topic, author, and genre.
- Books that are a part of a series.
- Books introduced in book talks that are available for independent reading.
- Books recommended by the students in the class.
- Books that have received awards--Caldecott, Newbery, Coretta Scott King, and others.
- Leveled books for guided reading.*
- Collections of short stories.
- Journals, magazines, newspapers.
*This may not be appropriate or necessary after sixth grade, so take that into consideration.
Scheduling and Structures
As a middle school teacher, Atwell emphasizes that her Writing-Reading Workshop "isn't an add-on; it is the English course" (97). She offers several approaches to scheduling while emphasizing that she makes time each day for these components: "a poem, a writing-reading minilesson, independent writing and conferring, a brief read-aloud...and time for independent reading" (96). In addition, she assigns and extra half hour of reading at home for homework.
Options for scheduling the workshop approach, taken directly from In the Middle (97-98):
Option 1: When a workshop approach is the curriculum
- writing workshop on four regular, consecutive days (e.g., Monday-Thursday)
- reading workshop on one regularly scheduled fifth day (e.g., Friday) but with booktalks and minilessons throughout the week
- A half hour's worth of independent reading as homework every night
- An hour's worth of writing as homework, done at the student's discretion between Thursday night and Monday morning
Option 2: When a required curriculum must be covered
- Writing workshop four days a week (e.g., Monday-Thursday) for one semester, with an hour's worth of writing as homework between Thursday night and Monday morning
- The required curriculum four days a week the alternate semester
- reading workshop on one regularly scheduled fifth day (e.g., Friday) throughout the entire school year, and frequent booktalks and literary minilessons
- a half hour's worth of independent reading as homework every night
In either of these options, time for independent reading and writing are absolute necessities. Students become better readers and writers by reading and writing, so this time must be set aside weekly and daily (93, 95). When considering how to adapt these middle school structures for high school, option 2 may be the most helpful.
A typical workshop lesson structure includes a minilesson delivered by the teacher and independent work time followed by some type of sharing or coming together at the end of the workshop (Fountas & Pinnell, 2001, 17).

text: (This letter is shared here per family request. Written for the family reunion 7.15.12)Dear Grandpa and Grandma,It�s been so very long since we�ve seen each other. I miss you.As you know, Jo asked me to write about you and present it at the family reunion today. And, I�ve spent the past few weeks trying to do just that. Each time I tried, the words wouldn�t come out right and I�d find myself talking to youinstead. So today what I brought to read is not a composition written about you in the past tense, as much as a letter written to you acknowledging your presence both here with us today and forever.Grandma and Grandpa, it is your legacy of love that brings us here together. Seeing your reflection in everyone makes me want to see you again more than ever. Today's reunion reunites us not only with each other but brings back our memories of you.I remember the Saturday nights when we�d all pile into whatever Chrysler my Dad was driving at the time and come over to your house to play Yahtzee and Kings in the Corner. Grandma, you would make this wonderful rich dark chocolate cake topped with a thick layer of silky white 7-minute frosting. We�d wash it down with 7-Up you�d pour over ice into chunky olive green glasses. Straight from the green glass bottle the 7up was extraordinarily effervescent. I remember the super carbonated fizz tickling up my nose and splattering onto my glasses when I took the first sips.Riding back home in the dark, smooshed in the backseat between siblings, I felt wrapped in the sweetness of the night � heart and tummy filled by the conversations and laughter, the games, and all the deliciousness you had prepared for us.Grandpa, I can still see you winking at me and signaling �quiet� on your lips while sneakily taking the top off the royal blue pressed glass candy dish that sat atop the long buffet. You�d snag a pink peppermint for me because you knew I disliked the anise candy. It seemed like Grandma always caught us snitching. She could hear the sound of that candy dish lid from wherever she was in the house and scold, �Frank!� You�d call back, �Ma -- It was Bobby!� Your belly would jiggle with the laughter you were stifling. Such a great tease you were. Not only were YOU were a crazy poopaloola but YOU were the one who was full of prunes.Grandpa, I remember how you�d nap on the couch after lunch every day. You snored like a freight train, with your right forearm draped over your eyes and your left hand tucked into the waist band of your stretchy polyester Sansabelt slacks. They were really ugly.Thinking of the two of you reminds me of the peculiarities of the old farm house. All those little rooms and doors to pass through just to get to the basement. And the narrow � stepped staircase leading upstairs, awkwardly steep with a closet at the top landing.I remember when Mom, Dad and I moved into that house in 1976. It was thoughtful of you Grandma to leave the white enamel chamber pot in the upstairs closet just for me. I know you were worried that I�d fall down the steep stairs at night. I didn't have the heart to tell you I'd NEVER dream of using it. Memories of the chamber pot in the closet reminds me of the funny story about Uncle Francis when he was a little boy, sleep walking into the upstairs closet, apparently looking for the potty. I can still see your eyes twinkling and hear you giggling as you told the story.Grandma, there are a few things I wished I had asked you about before you died. I wish I�d asked you why there was a mirror hanging above the kitchen sink. It looked out of place. But as I�ve thought about it, I�m guessing it was put there so when you were busy at the sink and counter you could easily glance up and look through the south window behind you and see whenever someone was coming to the house.You were always so hospitable and gracious to everyone. I bet that mirror explains how treats were on the table and the coffee pot was magically started before the front door ever opened to guests. Everything about you and your kitchen said, �Come in. Sit down. I�ve been expecting you. I have good things for you. Enjoy.� Whether it was Grandpa coming in from the barn or other company you were always prepared for a reunion.Grandma and Grandpa, I think that today�s reunion is a good time to share what happened that night when you gave me the gift. Admittedly, at the time I didn�t understand that it was just that � a gift � one that I now treasure. I�ve decided that this is the fitting occasion for you and I to pass it on.I�m sure you remember that night a few years ago when you brought me the gift. The moment we had together was so profound that even today your voice and touch are stored in a vivid memory. We were together in that amazing dream, surrounded with indescribable love, peace and joy deeper than I�d ever experienced. Although I�d not seen you for years, I recognized your kind eyes and Grandma�s gentle voice speaking those few words,�We are very close and ready for him.�Those words, the dream, our dream, were so real that I thought I had died in my sleep and crossed over to join you without experiencing any earthly pain or illness. Lucky me.But then I woke up. I wasn�t dead. There I sat in bed completely dumbfounded and overwhelmed, filled with emotion that still defies description. We had been together in my dream. You had touched me and clearly spoken.�We are very close and ready for him.�Days went by. I told no one about our dream but spent time every day reliving the incredible experience we shared. When the words spoken went through my mind, I didn�t want to believe what my heart said it meant. It felt safer to tell myself that surely my interpretation of the words was wrong. Anyhow, it was just a dream.Right?Life went on. As it was our routine at the time, that next weekend the kids and I went to the farm to spend the day with Mom & Dad. I was in the kitchen when Dad came in from outside and sat down on the porch bench to take his boots off, something I�d seen him do a thousand times before.There was the familiar sound of the hard tips of his boot laces snapping as he whipped each of the laces out of the eyelets, one by one. His next stop was likely the living room recliner. Dad tired easily, although he didn�t admit it.I was drying dishes when, out of the blue, he said,�I miss my parents and I want to be with them.�Well. That got my full attention. Dish towel and plate still in hand, I walked over to the screen door between the kitchen and porch. He looked up at me and said,�I wonder what it will be like to die.�My heart started to beat hard as we stared at each other. I had never heard my Dad talk about dying or how he missed you. He was a loving man, but a private man, one who demonstrated his feelings. He didn�t talk about them.My mind raced, trying to chase the details of our dream far away. But it just came into clearer focus. In that moment I completely understood. There was no other interpretation for those words other than the literal.�We are very close and are ready for him.�Through the transparency of the moment, I looked into his blue eyes. I believe my Dad knew. There was nothing to disclose to him that he didn�t already know. With that realization, my heart beat quieted as the peace from our dream settled around me.Courage found my voice and helped me speak.�I can�t imagine what it will be like to die. You know, as a nurse I have been a guest of death many times. But I don�t think that has prepared me for your death. I can�t possibly know what it will be like for me until the moment comes.I think when a child of any age loses a parent, their only longing which remains is to return to the love from which they came. I�ll want to be with you, just as you want to be with your parents.�I can still see the nod of his head as he dropped his loosened boots onto the hard plastic mat under the bench. That was the end of the conversation. Forever.Many times in the days to follow I mulled our dream and that conversation with my Dad over and over in my mind. I kept these things tucked away, keeping them to myself.Three weeks later Dad died. Through my grief I embraced our dream and clung to my private comfort that you knew he was coming, and you were ready and waiting for that reunion. As his dying heart desired, Dad had returned to the love from which he came. He was back in your arms.Grandma and Grandpa, it has been an immeasurable comfort for me to know that you watch over us. When the time comes to pass, you will be our escort. Thank you for our dream, and the knowing that the love of family crosses dimensions both seen and unseen. If you could have come back to join us this afternoon, I believe that is the reassuring gift you would have brought to share.Thank you for the gift of reunion.

Bitwise AND Assignment Operator (&=) (JavaScript)
Performs a bitwise AND on the value of a variable and the value of an expression and assigns the result to the variable.
Using this operator is exactly the same as specifying:
result = result & expression
The &= operator looks at the binary representation of the values of result and expression and does a bitwise AND operation on them. The output of this operation behaves like this:
0101 (result) 1100 (expression) ---- 0100 (output)
Any time both of the expressions have a 1 in a digit, the result has a 1 in that digit. Otherwise, the result has a 0 in that digit.

Smart Selling: CMA, Seller's Appraisal or Both?
Published: Friday, May 7, 2010 at 11:40 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, May 7, 2010 at 11:40 a.m.
Many sellers question the need for a formal appraisal since the REALTOR® will prepare a CMA, or Comparative Market Analysis, to help establish the current market value of the house. After all, the buyer's lender will order an appraisal as part of the mortgage approval process. Why consider having both a CMA and an appraisal?
What is a CMA?
The CMA is the REALTOR®'s informal estimate of market value based on recent sales of comparable properties, properties currently on the market, pending sales and listings that have been withdrawn. The CMA is the REALTOR®'s opinion, and it can vary, depending on what each REALTOR® considers to be comparable properties. The CMA typically shows the number days the "comps" (comparable properties) were on the market, the initial listing price and the final selling price, if applicable. It also contemplates such factors as the age of the property, square footage, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, and more.
What is an Appraisal?
The Uniform Residential Appraisal Report is a formal document approved by the federal government and completed by a trained professional, licensed by the State of North Carolina. A seller's appraisal gives the appraiser's opinion of the market value of the house at a given time, based on more extensive criteria and documentation than the typical CMA. Appraisals, too, can vary. The major benefit is that an appraisal is done by a professional who must meet specific criteria when completing the report, be able to substantiate his conclusions and certify the results. With a seller's appraisal as a guide, you can more readily set a realistic initial listing price and use the report to market your house and support the price. Your appraisal also benefits the buyer because it creates confidence that the house will appraise near the selling price and facilitate mortgage approval. The cost of an appraisal starts at around $450.
Whether you choose to rely on your REALTOR®'s CMA or you decide to have a formal appraisal, be certain your property looks its best and is in top condition before anyone sees it. Keep in mind that market value can change, and both an appraisal and CMA should be updated periodically, especially if your house doesn't sell.
Smart Selling Tip:
In addition to a CMA, consider a formal appraisal to set an initial listing price that can be substantiated, and use the appraisal as a marketing and negotiating tool.

Express Dairies
|Dairy Products
|1864 (as Express County Milk Supply Company)
Key people
|George Barham (founder)
|Dairy Crest
Express Dairies is a former brand of Dairy Crest, that specialised almost entirely in home deliveries of milk and other dairy products.
The company was founded by George Barham in 1864 as the Express County Milk Supply Company,[1] named after the fact that they only used express trains to get their milk to London.
The major creamery and milk bottling plant was located just south of South Acton railway station on the North London Line. This gave easy and equal access for milk trains from both the Great Western Railway and the Southern Railway.[2]
The company was purchased by Grand Metropolitan in 1969,[3] and sold in 1991 to Northern Foods.[4] It was demerged from Northern Foods in 1998,[5] and purchased a 51% controlling stake in Claymore Dairies Ltd of Scotland, for £2.2 million.
Express Dairies acquired Star Dairies Food Service Ltd. and certain assets of Star Dairies International Ltd for £3.5 million in February 1999. In June the UK liquid milk operations of Glanbia plc were acquired for £100 million, and the share capital of Blakes Chilled Distribution Ltd. was purchased in August for £3 million.
Express Dairies announced a joint venture in Northern Ireland with Golden Vale plc in November 2000 that created Dale Farm Dairies Ltd, although that was sold in October 2001. Express Dairies disposed of its UHT business and Frome creamery in July 2002.
Following a period of poor profitability, the business was acquired in 2003 by Arla Foods,[6] who in turn sold it on to Dairy Crest in July 2006.[7] Dairy Crest sold its deliveries business to Creamline Dairies in 2013, and its milk processing business to Germany's Müller in December 2015.
Premier Supermarkets[edit]
Post war, Britain was changing. The chairman's new son-in-law, American citizen and ex-US Navy sailor Patrick Galvani had been studying retailing before coming to the UK, particularly supermarkets. Galvani made a pitch to the board, which resulted in Britain's first supermarket opening in Streatham, South London in 1951 under the Premier Supermarket brand.[8] While the average British retailer was taking £98/week, the average take at Premier was £1,000/week. The company developed an estate footprint of similar 2,500 square feet (230 m2)+ retail outlets, all under the Premier Supermarkets brand. In 1960, in an attempt to develop a national footprint, Galvani made a pitch to the board to buy northern based Irwin's 212 stores, but they refused to back him; Jack Cohen of Tesco subsequently bought the chain.[8] After Galvani resigned over a dispute to take Green Shield Stamps, in 1964 the chain was sold to Unilever's Mac Fisheries chain for £1million. The cash income allowed Express to develop and launch marketing for long-life milk.[9]

Being less passive about problems can't hurt ;-) It is normal that a webapp is redeployed after committing since it modifies the context file of the webapp (so everything will be redeployed). This is the only bad side effect of the improved deployer. As for the CL problems, well you can get that if the context CL is bad somewhere. This obviously works fine for me, though. Remy

A New Flower in Our Garden
by Hazel Emery M.Ed.
Spring Garden Waldorf School was fortunate to be gifted an original P.R. Miller sculpture for our grounds. Miller — a.k.a. "The Grizzled Wizard of Waste Not, Want Not" — is renowned for creating unique works of art using recycled and reclaimed materials. Miller is the artist-in-residence for Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens, and his installations can be seen throughout Akron.
P. R. Miller has had a long relationship with Spring Garden. His children Sarah and Alex, as well as his grandson Graye, are SGWS alumni, and he has continued to support our school in many ways since they graduated. Most notably, he visited the school in 2008 and enlisted the help of students and their parents to create bugs and butterflies from recycled plastic materials for his installation at Stan Hywet. We are grateful for his continuing involvement with Spring Garden Waldorf School and for this amazing, unique sculpture that will grace our grounds for years to come.
Roof Art Community Day
Join us at school on Saturday, May 30th, from 10am – 2pm for Roof Art Community Day. This fun and festive community painting party will let families create an art piece to be included inside our new roof. Plywood can be purchased at $100/sheet and the art will be used to line the inside walls and ceilings of our new roof. Healthy snacks will be provided for all!
We will also be placing a time capsule inside the new roof and each plywood purchase entitles you to place a small, meaningful item inside. So come, have fun and support the new roof project with your donation and your art!
Fill out the purchase form in your mailbox. Or, you can purchase the sheet online, here, at PayPal:
Calling All Dads for the Auction
While the moms are working on the Mother Love blanket, we would like to give the dads an opportunity to get involved in an art project for the auction as well.
"Reflections of a Waldorf Father" will be a 16″ x 20″ mirrored wall hanging consisting of various sizes of wooden blocks hand-stained by all fathers who are willing to participate. We have over 100 blocks to be stained. You can pick up as many as you are able to complete, free of charge, at the school store. Use any shade(s) of stain you have in your home (the more variety, the better), and return the dried pieces as soon as possible, but no later than Thursday, March 26th.
If you have any questions, please email Debi Huselton.
