How to remove Virus from USB Drives
One of the ways by which a virus can infect your PC is through USB/Pen drives. Common viruses such as 'Ravmon' , 'New Folder.exe', 'Orkut is banned' etc are spreading through USB drives. Most anti virus programs are unable to detect them and even if they do, in most cases they are unable to delete the file, only quarantine it. Here are the things which you can do if you want to remove such viruses from your USB Drive
Whenever you plug a USB drive in your system, a window will appear similar to the one shown below
Don't click on Ok , just choose 'Cancel'. Open the Command Prompt by typing 'cmd' in the run box. In the command prompt type the drive letter: and press enter . Now type dir /w/a and press enter.
This will display a list of the files in the pen drive. Check whether the following files are there or not
New Folder.exe
or any other exe file which may be suspicious.
If any of the above files are there, then probably the USB drive is infected. In command prompt type attrib -r -a -s -h *.* and press enter. This will remove the Read Only, Archive, System and hidden file attribute from all the files. Now just delete the files using the command del filename. example del Ravmon.exe. Delete all the files that are suspicious. To be on a safer side, just scan the USB drive with an anti virus program to check whether it is free of virus or not. Now remove the drive and plug it again. In most of the cases, the real culprit turns out to be the "Autorun.inf" file which mostly gets executed when someone clicks Ok in the dialog window which appears above. Thus the infections can spread

Folder option Missing..!!!
Open Run and then type "gpedit.msc".
Now goto User Configuration > Administrative templates > Windows Component > Windows Explorer.
Click on Windows Explorer you will find the 3rd option on the right side of screen "Removes the Folder Option menu item from the Tools menu"
Just check it, if it is not configured then change it to enable by double clicking on it and after applying again set it to not configured.
I hopes that you will find the option after restarting windows.

How to Access Blocked Websites?
Blocking access to undesirable Web sites through the use of Internet protocol filters has been a common government tactic since commercial Internet access first became available here in 1995. China and Saudi Arabia are believed to extend greater censorship over the net than any other country in the world under the pretext of information control.
Most of the blacklisted sites in Saudi Arabia are either sexually explicit or about religion, women, health, drugs and pop culture. They even block access to websites about bathing suits. So if you want to buy something to swim in, they seem to treat that as if it were pornographic in Saudi Arabia.
In China, webites containing sexually explicit content were among those blocked, but they also included sites on sensitive topics such as Tibet, Taiwan, and dissident activity. China also blocks access to Google News, Typepad and Blogger hosted blogs.
But what if an innocent website is accidentally blocked by your ISP or your government. There are always legitimate reasons to visit these blocked websites. We have listed a few methods to help you access blocked websites in school, college, office or at home.
Approach 1: There are websites Anonymizer who fetch the blocked site/ page from their servers and display it to you. As far as the service provider is concerned you are viewing a page from Anonymizer and not the blocked site.
Approach 2: To access the blocked Web site. type the IP number instead of the URL in the address bar. But if the ISP software maps the IP address to the web server (reverse DNS lookup), the website will remain blocked.
Approach 3: Use a URL redirection service like tinyurl.com or snipurl.com. These domain forward services sometimes work as the address in the the url box remain the redirect url and do not change to the banned site.
Approach 4: Use Google Mobile Search. Google display the normal HTML pages as if you are viewing them on a mobile phone. During the translation, Google removes the javascript content and CSS scripts and breaks a longer page into several smaller pages. [link] View this website in Google Mobile
Approach 5: Enter the URL in Google or Yahoo search and then visit the cached copy of the page. To retrieve the page more quickly from Google's cache, click "Cached Text Only" while the browser is loading the page from cache.
Approach 6: A recent Oreilly story on accessing blocked websites suggested an approach to access restricted web sites using Google language tools service as a proxy server. Basically, you have Google translate your page from English to English (or whatever language you like). Assuming that Google isn't blacklisted in your country or school, you should be able to access any site with this method. Visit this site via Google Proxy
Approach 7: Anonymous Surfing Surf the internet via a proxy server. A proxy server (or proxies) is a normal computer that hides the identity of computers on its network from the Internet. Which means that only the address of the proxy server is visible to the world and not of those computers that are using it to browse the Internet. Just visit the proxy server website with your Web browser and enter a URL (website address) in the form provided.

Microsoft Expands List of Formats Supported in Microsoft Office
Microsoft Corp. is offering customers greater choice and more flexibility among document formats, as well as creating additional opportunities for developer and competitors, by expanding the range of document formats supported in its flagship Office productivity suite.
The 2007 Microsoft Office system already provides support for 20 different document formats within Microsoft Office Word, Office Excel and Office PowerPoint. With the release of Microsoft Office 2007 Service Pack 2 (SP2) scheduled for the first half of 2009, the list will grow to include support for XML Paper Specification (XPS), Portable Document Format (PDF) 1.5, PDF/A and Open Document Format (ODF) v1.1.
When using SP2, customers will be able to open, edit and save documents using ODF and save documents into the XPS and PDF fixed formats from directly within the application without having to install any other code. It will also allow customers to set ODF as the default file format for Office 2007. To also provide ODF support for users of earlier versions of Microsoft Office (Office XP and Office 2003), Microsoft will continue to collaborate with the open source community in the ongoing development of the Open XML-ODF translator project on SourceForge.net.
In addition, Microsoft has defined a road map for its implementation of the newly ratified International Standard ISO/IEC 29500 (Office Open XML). IS29500, which was approved by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in March, is already substantially supported in Office 2007, and the company plans to update that support in the next major version release of the Microsoft Office system, code-named "Office 14."
Consistent with its interoperability principles, in which the company committed to work with others toward robust, consistent and interoperable implementations across a broad range of widely deployed products, the company has also announced it will be an active participant in the future evolution of ODF, Open XML, XPS and PDF standards.
Microsoft will join the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) technical committee working on the next version of ODF and will take part in the ISO/IEC working group being formed to work on ODF maintenance. Microsoft employees will also take part in the ISO/IEC working group that is being formed to maintain Open XML and the ISO/IEC working group that is being formed to improve interoperability between these and other ISO/IEC-recognized document formats. The company will also be an active participant in the ongoing standardization and maintenance activities for XPS and PDF. It will also continue to work with the IT community to promote interoperability between document file formats, including Open XML and ODF, as well as Digital Accessible Information System (DAISY XML), the foundation of the globally accepted DAISY standard for reading and publishing navigable multimedia content.
Microsoft is also committed to providing Office customers with the ability to open, edit and save documents in the Chinese national document file format standard, Uniform Office Format (UOF). The company does so today by supporting the continued development of the UOF-Open XML translator project on SourceForge.net, and will take additional steps to promote the distribution and ease of use of the translator. As UOF develops and achieves market adoption in China, Microsoft will distribute support for this format with Office to its customers in China.
"We are committed to providing Office users with greater choice among document formats and enhanced interoperability between those formats and the applications that implement them," said Chris Capossela, senior vice president for the Microsoft Business Division. "By increasing the openness of our products and participating actively in the development and maintenance of document format standards, we believe we can help create opportunities for developers and competitors, including members of the open source communities, to innovate and deliver new value for customers."
Microsoft recognizes that customers care most about real-world interoperability in the marketplace, so the company is committed to continuing to engage the IT community to achieve that goal when it comes to document format standards. It will work with the Interoperability Executive Customer Council and other customers to identify the areas where document format interoperability matters most, and then collaborate with other vendors to achieve interoperability between their implementations of the formats that customers are using today. This work will continue to be carried out in the Interop Vendor Alliance (http://www.interopvendoralliance.org), the Document Interoperability Initiative (http://www.microsoft.com/interop), and a range of other interoperability labs and collaborative venues.
"Microsoft's support for ODF in Office is a great step that enables customers to work with the document format that best meets their needs, and it enables interoperability in the marketplace," said Roger Levy, senior vice president and general manager of Open Platform Solutions for Novell Inc. "Novell is proud to be an industry leader in cross-platform document interoperability through our work in the Document Interoperability Initiative, the Interop Vendor Alliance and with our direct collaboration with Microsoft in our Interoperability Lab. We look forward to continuing this work for the benefit of customers across the IT spectrum."
"The demand for a document format that everyone can use is something I hear from our customers on a regular basis," said John D. Head, framework manager at PSC Group LLC, a Chicago headquartered information-technology and professional services consulting firm. "I am very pleased that Microsoft is enabling Microsoft Office to support ODF directly from the software. This will allow us to develop solutions that create documents that can be edited by any user, regardless of what software or operating system they use. In a world where software companies want people to select one software package for their entire user base, the reality is that different user groups and types need options. Microsoft is now enabling users to make that choice. This is a very smart move by Microsoft, and one that lets the most important person — the customer — be the winner."
This work on document formats is only one aspect of how Microsoft is delivering choice, interoperability and innovative solutions to the marketplace. Microsoft will continue to work with its customers and partners and the rest of the industry to continue advancing in the area. More information can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/interop.

Finally we are able to really enjoy Spring this weekend. We have had a rough start: bad weather, bad colds, more bad weather, so getting out and doing those early spring clean up chores didn't happen when it should have, so Mother's Day weekend was perfect on all accounts. We have plenty of projects on the list, and we got one major one accomplished. But before I begin, let me share little Lily with you. She had her last pre school program. She will turn five in June and be off to kindergarten in the fall. Yes, she has a paper plate on her head. It was part of her costume for their little play, "The Little Red Hen." She was the kitty with one line, "Not I," said the kitty. And she smiled so sweetly. I took her shopping Thursday and what a little shopper she is.
For some time I have wanted a drip system on a timer to water my hanging baskets on the pergola. So my Mother's Day gift from Heather was her help installing the system. It will be on a timer set to water the pots twice a day. We already had all of the materials: the water line and the hangers. (what she professionally refers to as spaghetti line)
She will be a grayish brownish color with beautiful green highlights. We now have too many hens: 17.

SSG Robert S. Johnson
21 December 2004
Robert Johnson could have easily chosen to stay home after high school.
He was surrounded by family and friends in his hometown of Seaside, Calif., and in line to take over his family's heating and air-conditioning business. In every way, he was set up to lead a comfortable life.
He chose a military life instead, enlisting in the Army at 18 and going first to Korea, then Iraq.
"He wanted to serve his country," said his father, Peter Johnson of Castro Valley, Calif. "It was his own decision and I supported it. I told him, 'Just come home to me.' "
Johnson, 23, was among 22 people killed Dec. 21 when a man, apparently dressed in an Iraqi military uniform, set off a suicide bomb in a mess tent near Mosul in the deadliest attack yet at a U.S. base in Iraq.
A staff sergeant and chemical operations specialist, Johnson was stationed at Ft. Lewis, Wash., and was one of six soldiers from that base killed in the attack. All six, members of the fort's elite Stryker Brigade, were honored last week in a tear-filled memorial service at the base.
At the service, friends and family remembered Johnson as a stickler for detail who loved basketball, football and all music, from classical to hip-hop. And they remembered him as a serious soldier, one proud of his mission in the Middle East.
"He felt he was making a difference in the lives of the people in Iraq," 1st Sgt. Carlon Addison said.
Peter Johnson said in an interview he will remember the basketball games he played with his boy, banging bodies under the backboard at their home.
Johnson said he'll remember the 30-minute showers his son used to take, the way he kept his room and clothes neat and orderly even before he joined the Army, and the way his face would light up when he drove his customized, fire-engine red pickup truck.
Johnson said he couldn't be prouder of his son and soldiers like him.
"I'm appreciative of all of their efforts and every breath they have given for our freedom," he said.
"Robert believed in what he was doing. And he was willing to sacrifice his life for people he knew and didn't know in this country," Johnson said.

You know how the mechanism leaps out at you and tries to drag your hand inside as you offer it a cassette. Well the cassette went in and partly down and I can't get it to budge either way. I removed the casing but it didn't improve access to the inside of the mechanism much. I need hand holding before I dare dismantle any further (memories of that clockwork watch I once dismantled out of curiosity and hair springs shot everywhere ! ).

Peterborough Panthers will prove to be a match for any team in the Premier League this year.
That's the message from Adam Roynon as he gears up for a first full season in Panthers colours.
The 26 year-old was drafted in during last term and did enough to earn a new deal from club chiefs Ged Rathbone and Trevor Swales after their successful mission to ensure the club survived.
"I think we have the potential to be a great team," said Roynon, who starts the campaign in a second-string berth.
"It looks like there are a lot of strong sides in the Premier League this year, but we are equally as strong as any of them.
"Glasgow look like they have put a good team together and Edinburgh will be tough again after doing the treble last season.
"But hopefully those two Scottish teams can beat each other up and we can sneak up on them!
"It is just a case of getting ourselves dialled into the Showground as soon as we can, while also looking to pick up a few points on the road."
And Roynon insists it was an easy decision to return to the Readypower Panthers' fold during the winter despite interest from elsewhere.
He admits the Showground track suits his riding style superbly and he has high hopes of improving a 4.78 starting average.
Roynon added: "There was a bit of interest from a couple of my previous clubs during the winter, but Peterborough was the place where I wanted to be.
"I'm feeling more ready for a new season than I've ever been in the past. My equipment is all sorted and I've been working hard in the gym to make sure I'm in the best shape I can be.
"Peterborough is an awesome track and I'm sure I can improve my average. I started 2012 on a similar figure at Workington and ended up being number one so I'd settle for that again!"

While on our three-week tour of the good ol' U.S. of A., I managed to sneak in a breakfast at Rick Bayless's Tortas Frontera. In the airport! I ate an egg and rajas torta with sides of smoky salsa verde and guacamole and a glass of lime juice. Crikey, it all tasted amazing!
So when I returned home, I felt very "F@*k yeah, Mexican food!" Ahem. So to speak. Then I invented this super super spicy dish, which I am sure Rick Bayless wouldn't even look at, he's so much cooler than I
May I take the liberty of suggesting three different approaches to my beans? First, you can use it as an extremely spicy, less fatty alternative to refried beans. Spread it on tortilla chips, top with sour cream. Or you can enjoy a simple bowl o' beans by heating it up with a cube or two cheese in the microwave. Finally, you may enjoy it as a spoonable snack. I find that two plain spoonfuls will kick my brain into gear, water all my ducts, and keep me going for at least an hour if not two.
Hot Beans by a Hot Mama (literally, I have all the fans and two air conditioners on)
2 cans pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 3 ounce can chilies in adobo sauce (find at your local Mexican grocer)
1 bell pepper, sliced up and sautéed in oil until tender.
Set aside 1 cup of the pinto beans. Put the rest of the beans, the can of chilies, and the cooked pepper together in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. You may have to add a little water. Mix the reserved beans in by hand.
Makes a lot of servings, depending on your heat tolerance

Max Espinoza Weighs In on the New Path to Earning A Degree
Online Learning Max Espinoza of Scholarship America shares his knowledge and advice for the next era of digital learners.
Students praise online education for its convenience and flexibility.
Studying virtually may not be the traditional way to earn a degree, but high tech learning is growing in popularity. According to the most recent data from the 2013 Survey of Online Learning Report, 7.1 million of higher education students are taking at least one online course.
Going the distance
Online education, also called distance education, typically involves taking a class via the internet, including webcasts, audio or videoconferencing, prerecorded instructional videos or studying materials on websites or DVD.
"Ensure that you're getting a quality program that's going to give you what it claims to give you."
One of the biggest misconceptions about online education is the quality of educational programs. "Not all programs are created equal," says Max Espinoza, Senior Vice President of Education Programs & Policy at Scholarship America, the largest national provider of private scholarships, who urges students to research online programs before enrolling.
"Ensure that you're getting a quality program that's going to give you what it claims to give you," he says.
Program benefits
Online classes are available in a variety of topics including history, architecture and health.
"Some well respected institutions are offering online education, for example Harvard and MIT and others," says Espinoza, suggesting students check out the school offering the coursework; find out who has given the program a "the stamp of approval," and inquire about the success rates of graduates.
Busy students are motivated by the convenience and flexibility of online classes, which allows them to study the materials on their own schedule.

It is mid afternoon and the characters are relaxing and taking a well deserved rest from
their latest successful venture.
A pirate ship docks in town, laden with treasure and coin. The sailors begin their
carousing; paying with gold coins from some country that no one has ever heard of. They
also sell off small, strange statuettes crafted from onyx, giving one to the characters as
payment or a gift.
However, over the course of a few days the sailors seem in a panic and attempt to get
back all of the statuettes from everyone they had given them to.

Next week is Lunch Week
We have something new coming up next week on AOA: Lunch Week.
It's pretty much what it sounds like -- a whole week with posts about... lunch. There will be other stuff, too, including all the usual items. But every day will have at least one post about lunch. Trust us, it'll be fun. We have some excellent contributors lined up to help out.
Here's where you come in
On the last day of Lunch Week (Friday, June 18) we want to do a post about what everyone had for lunch that week. Specifically, the Wednesday of that week (June 16).
So, next Wednesday we'd love for you to snap a pic of your lunch and send it to us at this email address: lunch |at| alloveralbany |dot| com. Please include what's in your lunch, where you got it and how you'd like to be identified.
Lunch can be whatever you're eating that day -- a PB&J from home, a sandwich at your desk from the deli, Chinese at the place down the street, whatever. If you ate it around noon that day, it's lunch.
Everyone who sends along a qualifying lunch photo will be entered in a drawing for, yep... A FREE LUNCH. We'll pick two winners at random. They'll get a $25 gift certificate to their favorite local lunch spot (yep, the winner gets to pick).
OK, to review
- Next Wednesday, snap a pic of your lunch and send it, along with a description, to lunch |at| alloveralbany |dot| com
- We'll post the photos and descriptions on Friday
- Two winners will get free lunch at the local spot of their choice
- We all have some fun
I can't wait! Lunch is the highlight of my work day.
This is a super cute idea. I always love new lunch ideas!
Does the lunch have to be bought from a restaurant? Or can you bring in something that you made from home?
@Danielle: Good question. It can totally be something from home -- a PB&J, leftovers, whatever.
I'll update the post to make that more clear. Thanks.
Fun! Now what to get for lunch next Wednesday...hmmm
Hmmm.. seared Foie Gras on a bagel with huckleberry reduction.
I'm going to do it.
Totally going to Gene's Fish Fry.
So, who wants to meet downtown for lunch on Wednesday? If I'm doing this, I'm not doing it alone.
B -- you're *not* going to snap a photo of your lunch by yourself? i'd meet up with you, if i got a lunch break at my job.
How fun. And I love how you say "OK, to review." Ha.
> Specifically, the Wednesday of that week (June 16).
It's gonna rain on Wednesday, and I have "fancy" lunch plans. What about Thursday :)
Totally put this on my Outlook calendar!
I just sent mine in from earlier today. Can't wait to see what everyone else ate for lunch.
Whatever it was, there is no way it was saltier than what I choked down. And I am a person who loves salt. Sometimes you eat the bear, and well sometimes... sometimes the bear eats you.
Say Something!
We'd really like you to take part in the conversation here at All Over Albany. But we do have a few rules here. Don't worry, they're easy. The first: be kind. The second: treat everyone else with the same respect you'd like to see in return. Cool? Great, post away. Comments are moderated so it might take a little while for your comment to show up. Thanks for being patient.

In Mexico, this is a very common dish. Usually, they use mayonnaise, so I lightened it up with Greek yogurt.
5 to 6 ears of corn, kernels removed
1 Tablespoon olive oil
1 red jalapeño/red chile/ or habanero, diced (seeds and ribs removed)
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
Juice from 1 lime
2 Tablespoons low-fat Greek yogurt
1/2 to 1 cup Mexican cheese (cotija or feta)
freshly cracked black pepper (to taste)
Stir together lime juice and Greek yogurt in your bowl. Heat oil large skillet (I use a cast-iron skillet) over medium heat. Sauté the corn in olive oil until it is browned; about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from heat, and allow to cool for about 10 minutes. Once the corn has cooled some, then add all of the other ingredients, stirring well to combine. This is such an easy salad to put together, especially with all of the summer corn. You can serve this at room temperature or cold.

PHOTO: is soy friend or foe? Like most things, it just depends on how you use it…
Soy and its Bad Reputation
Today's nutritional tip is all about soybeans. Soybeans have a really bad rap. Anywhere you go on the internet, everyone tells you that soy will make you fat, that it will give you man boobs if you're man, that it will give you testosterone problems if you're a woman, and all other sorts of negative effects.
The interesting thing about soy is that it's really high in protein, shockingly high compared to other things, which is why food manufacturers became very interested in it. It's also very cheap and very easy to grow and it's a resilient plant. It grows in lots of different climates and lots of different animals can eat it.
There are a couple of problems with soy. The biggest problem is that it's been genetically modified, and we don't really know what that's going to do. Personally, I think genetic modification is the future of food, for better or for worse. I don't like it and I'd rather just stay away from it. Organic soy is available. It's inexpensive, and it's readily available to the extent that most health food stores actually only sell organic soy products.
The real reason that people got into trouble with soy is particularly in the U.S. there's a brand of soy milk called Silk. Silk is delicious. It's amazing. It tastes like ice cream. You can drink it, you can put it on cereal, do whatever you want with it. It's an incredible amount of soy that you're taking in, and so it's not uncommon for Americans or Canadians, North Americans, to drink liters of this stuff a day.
So more than anything, the poison is in the dose, and the challenge is it can cause different problems. It has phytoestrogens in it, which can cause hormonal problems. It's pretty rare, but it happens when people are drinking soy milk all day long, and it can cause thyroid problems. Now, none of these things are really that common. It's really not that big a deal. It's for the people who are drinking soy milk all the time. Soy used in moderation is a really great food. And just to give you a comparison, something like flaxseeds, for example, also has phytoestrogens, but you don't hear a ton of people freaking out about the phytoestrogens in flaxseeds because nobody drinks flax milk three times a day. They just have it a little bit here and there, and it's very, very healthful.
The same is true for soy; it can be very healthful in small amounts. And for the most part, you want to have fermented soy. That would be in the form of Tempeh and Natto. Some people avoid tofu altogether. Personally, I don't think that's necessary. I've been a plant-based guy for 11 years, and so I know lots and lots of people who eat hugely soy-based diets. I don't think it's a great idea, but I've never seen huge health problems. Just people will get allergic reactions and they'll get indigestion, and anything that comes from eating excessively one food.
So we can't base a diet on soy, it can't be our main source of protein, it should just be a condiment, it should be something that's added in occasionally. I don't think there's any reason to be afraid of tofu. I don't think there's any reason to be afraid of soy products, unless you're eating soy processed products, like the frozen Tofurky chicken McNugget type things. Those are just junk foods, like any other junk food.
But if you're eating whole soybeans or fermented soybeans, there's some pretty interesting properties, and specifically things like Tempeh are really delicious and have some fantastic health benefits. So my take is that at any given time the health industry needs an enemy. For 15 years it was red meat. Then suddenly people dug deeper into the research and realized, hey red meat doesn't clog your arteries, saturated fat is actually fantastic for you. Certain types of beef can actually be quite healthy. And so they needed a new enemy. So the new enemy of the day is soy. I just think it's a little bit over-hyped. I think it's something that if you're eating every single day you probably need to take a look at, but if you're eating organic, non-GMO soy and you're eating a few hundred grams per week, it's probably going to be a great addition to your diet, and it might even help you.
As long as you're not abusing it and as long as you're eating natural and naturally prepared soy in small doses, it's an interesting food nutritionally, it's just not meant to be eaten every single day all the time.

Good morning. I'm off to DC, North Carolina and Baltimore for meetings, meetings and the AFTA 50th Anniversary Conference.
"And the beat goes on………………………………"
• Very insightful reports from Wolf Brown on Donor Motivation focusing on the highly successful and encouraging Fund For Artists Matching Commissions grant program.
• Here's an interesting site called: It's Saul Connected – The eclectic musings of an innovation junkie.
In talking about models, the author offers this analysis: "Adopting existing best practice makes sense if you want to improve the performance of your current business model. Going beyond the limits of your current business model requires a network-enabled capability to do R&D for new business models. The imperative is to build on best practices to explore and develop new practices. Best practices are necessary but not sufficient. Business models don't last as long as they used to. Leaders must identify and experiment with next practices. Next practices enable new ways to deliver customer value. Next practices are better ways to combine and network capabilities that change the value equation of your organization. Organizations should always be developing a portfolio of next practices that recombine capabilities to find new ways to deliver value. Leaders should design and test new business models unconstrained by the current business or industry model."
He goes on to say: "It is not best practices, but next practices that will sustain your organization on a strong growth trajectory. While you continue to pedal the bicycle of today's business model make sure that no less than 10% of your time and resources is dedicated to exploring new business models and developing next practices."
• Here's a blog by Marc van Bree posted on the Orchestra R/Evolution site talking about Google's famed 20% Time concept whereby employees are free to spend 20% of their time on whatever excites their passion. What if applied to the arts?
• This caught my eye: In an AP report on a gala honoring Stephen Hawking – the intersection of science and the arts. "Luminaries from the fields of physics, opera, poetry, theater, music and dance gathered to pay tribute to British physicist Stephen Hawking on Wednesday, with performances and speeches at a gala in his honor. The gala merging the arts and science was the kickoff event for this year's World Science Festival, a five-day gathering meant to bring some of the universe's most complex topics to the masses." Merging the arts and science. How refreshing to see that sentence in print.
• Finally here is another one of those lists to help you be a better manager. This one on Six Ways to Keep Employees from Jumping Ship
Have a great week.
Don't Quit

The name of the journal article for Writing In Science by Marlow Ediger in the journal 'education'. If you could help me cite it correctly, that would be great! I don't think I am doing it right.
Answered By: Kimberly Boyd Last Updated: Jan 30, 2017 Views: 58
Unfortunately, there is no doi number that I can find that is associated with the article that you are using. When using APA style, if there is no doi and you retrieved the article online, then you include the the URL for the journal in the reference instead of a doi number. You should use this format: Retrieved from http://www.projectinnovation.biz/education.html. This URL is listed in the citation that you sent but if you want to use an article with no doi and no URL listed in the citation, you can usually google the journal title to find the correct URL.
Also, there is a very helpful tutorial about DOIs and URLs in the Advanced Education LibGuide which you can reach here: http://libguides.brenau.edu/content.php?pid=194635&sid=1882548. It leads you through the methods for finding a doi before using a URL and how to find the URL if there is none listed in the citation information.
I hope that this helps.

I just made a new Voki. See it here: July 14, 2011
Last week of school – Free post May 22, 2011
This week a blog post is not required – HOWEVER :-), if you want to post, you may post on anything you would like! I am going to miss all you of very much – especially considering I won't be in a classroom, with my own homeroom next year. You all are my last class (for now) and I am going to miss you very much!
Best Part of 5th Grade – Last Blog :-( May 15, 2011
Well class, this is it! We are on our last blog of the year and I CAN'T believe it! This year has flown by and I am amazed that we are in the last two weeks of school! This is going to be our last blog post . This week I would like you to tell me the BEST thing about 5th grade. What is the one thing that you LOVE? Also, is there any advice that you would like to pass along to 4th graders right now?
This has been a great year and I hope you all come back to see me next year. I can't believe all of you will be in 6th grade next year. I know you are ready! You all will do great in 6th grade and I know you are ready for the freedom that comes with 6th grade and I also know you are ready for the responsibility! You all will be GREAT and I will MISS you!
Mrs. D
What would you change? May 8, 2011
Looking back on your fifth-grade year if you could change anything, what would you change? You may choose anything you would like to change, but remember to be kind and not make me cry! Also, support your reasons with evidence. Finally, don't just say, "I wouldn't give any homework." Remember it is my job to prepare you for 6th grade and I have to prepare you for homework. Truly, I want to hear what you have to say – so this is your time to state your opinion!!!!
Email May 1, 2011
This week I want you to spend some time thinking about how you use email and if you think it is wise for someone your age to have an email account. I want you to think about how you use words and how you communicate in your post. Do you think when you are speaking to someone verbally, you communicate well? Do you continue to communicate well when you are emailing friends, or do you just put whatever comes to mind? How do you think is positive about someone your age having email and what do you think is negative?
Remember your post should be at least 8 sentences and you should comment on a friends post.
Constructive Forces April 24, 2011
This week I would like you to explore this website and then come back and tell me how you think volcanoes could be a constructive force, that is a force that builds up the earth's surface! Be very detailed and try to use big science words in your response :-). I am sure you could use some of the words we learned about the earth's structure in your answer. Be sure to comment on a friends post!

There's going to be a lot of TV news happening in the next few weeks, but sifting through all the headlines and jibber-jabber can be a real pain in the buttocks! All you want to know is, "Has my favorite show been renewed or canceled or is it in some weird production limbo?" Well that's what we're here for!
Below you'll find a comprehensive, show-by-show status update as we head into the Upfronts, where final decisions will be made on almost every network program. We've placed each show in one of five different categories: 1. Renewed, 2. Likely Renewal, 3. On the Bubble (meaning their fate could go either way), 4. Likely Cancellation, 5. Canceled.
And if we might take a moment to toot our own horn, unlike other sites, we've desegregated cable and broadcast shows (fight! fight! for cable's rights!) and included a ton of programs from higher up on the dial, too. You can filter the list by network, name, and status to help you find what you're looking for even faster. We'll update this list as news happens, so be sure to bookmark it and keep checking back.
Note that you can also combine the filters, i.e. you can select a few networks and multiple letters in the event that you only want to know the statuses of programs that begin with "R" or "G" on History, Fox, and Showtime or whatever. And if you're looking for a show whose title starts with "The," you'll find under it under "T." To return to the master list, just hit the "Clear All" in the bottom right corner of the menu.
Finally, here's the boring disclaimer: As always, information is subject to change, and putting together a giant list like this isn't easy. If you think something is incorrect or missing, leave a note in the comments or send a tweet to @tvdotcom or @TimAtTVdotcom and we'll look into it as soon as we can.
Please allow a second or five for the hamsters to spin the wheels and load the list.
