If you're looking for awesome spelling apps for your beginning speller, you're in the right place!
(This post contains affiliate links.)
Are you looking for an app to help your beginning speller? You may not know where to begin. How are you to know which of the gazillion apps is the worth your money? And, more importantly, your child's time?
Meet This Reading Mama's Word Study Apps. Designed by a reading specialist, they were created using the principles of word study, a research-based approach to teaching spelling. So far, the series includes two awesome apps: the Short Vowel Word Study App and the Long Vowel Word Study App.
What is word study?
I've written a 5-part series on word study, but I'll assume you're here for the quick version. So I'll sum up!
Word study is a hands-on, thoughtful approach to spelling instruction based on the book Words Their Way. No writing words five times each. No endless workbook pages.
- Children learn to spell words in this sequence:
- one-syllable short vowel words (mop, hat, flip)
- one-syllable long vowel words (bike, say, field)
- multi-syllable words which may include prefixes and suffixes (funny, dresses, careful)
- words whose spellings are related to the words they're derived from (criticize, confident, and dependable).
- Children learn to spell words by sorting them and doing other hands-on activities.
- Rather than memorize rules which are often broken, children discover patterns in words.
- In a classroom, kids aren't all taught the same word study lessons. Instead, children learn according to their level of development.
Can my child use the apps if he's not learning to spell with word study?
Yes, yes! And here's how you know if the apps are right for your child.
- Is your child reading short vowel words (cat, map, jam) and starting to include vowels in her spellings? She needs the Short Vowel Word Study App. Often, this applies to children in kindergarten or first grade. (Want to know more about this app? Click here.)
- Is your child reading and spelling short vowel words consistently (even stand and thump), but confusing long vowel spellings (wate for wait, or cralled for crawled)? Then she's ready for the Long Vowel Word Study App. (For more about this app, visit this post.)
What's in the apps?
Short Vowel Word Study App has four levels of play. Long Vowel Word Study App has eight (wow!). For each level, you'll find four different spelling activities.
Sort it.
Children sort the words according to their pattern. The first level in the Short Vowel Word Study App uses pictures for extra support.
The higher level sorts look like this one.
Find it.
Which word is unlike the others? To find out, your child will need to read each word aloud. The oddball may be different because of how it sounds or because of how it's spelled. In the above example, "mind" is different because it makes the long i sound even though it has the same spelling patterns as the other words.
Talk about something to make your kid think!
Spell it.
In "spell it," move the tiles to make the word.
Write it.
Use your finger to trace or write the word. Compare your spelling to the correct spelling when you're done.
Bonus Games
My son, a beginning reader, loved finding the words as they were called in the BINGO game. My older son loves Slingshot.
In the Long Vowel Word Study App, you'll find an additional game called Word Crush, similar to the game Candy Crush.
How to purchase
These apps are PACKED with great learning activities. You'll love that the games are colorful, bright, and straightforward. (No annoying music, just fun sound effects!)
Click on the links below to get the apps for your speller. Have fun!
Guess what!
Another app is available – this one for teaching letter sounds. Don't miss it!
Free spelling resources for you!
- A better way to teach spelling
- Free Roll & Write spelling worksheets
- Free Stamp & Spell spelling worksheets
- Printable spelling games for any word list
(Disclosure: I received a free app in exchange for an honest review. I'd recommend these apps no matter what!)

Only about 15,000 acres of Arkansas forest have burned so far in 2014 in wildfires. The decrease in fire activity has actually made the Arkansas Forestry Commission delay their preparations for the summer wildfire season. The arrival of state-contracted single-engine air tankers has been pushed back.
"We've asked them to come in two weeks late," said Joe Fox, state forester. "The fire danger is very low right now - extraordinarily low for July 30th. We're standing here and it's not even 80 degrees."
August 1st is usually the start to the summer wildfire season. August is second behind March for the month with the highest amount of wildfires in Arkansas - but not expected to be as high as in years past due to the cool and rainy weather so far this summer.
But despite the low risk, the risk still remains - especially for those in certain areas.
"Terrain, vegetation types, proximity between homes and forested areas," said Adriane Barnes, Arkansas Forestry Commission information coordinator, listing off factors when it comes to wildfire risk.
Barnes said a new tool called the Southern Wildfire Risk Assessment Portal allows both the public and professionals to punch in even a street address and maps coordinate to show how high of a risk a home or neighborhood really is. It's a tool not only important for homeowners, but also for those who deal with city planning.
"When they go to build new substations for fire departments, when they go to decide where to plan mitigation projects - they can look at this data and make more informed decision about where the wildfire risk will be the highest," said Barnes.
The Forestry Commission warns residents who are in high risk areas to create a larger barrier between one's house and nearby forest, citing that to be the best wildfire prevention tool for homeowners. Also having necessary fire safety tools when in a higher risk area for wildfires is also reccommended.

1995 Ford Escort Wagon LX 4dr Wagon
This car is an excellent car to own! Gotta love it! It's very realiable little car. Has a nice smooth ride as well as an easy car to shift whereas many other cars are harder. She is the most wonderful car ever. The battery in mine lasted seven years! On that day that it died she got me all the way to my destination on absolutely no charge! This car will give it all it's got to do what it has to do. No joke.
Comfortable seating, short front ended. I gotta say I love the rack on top even though I've only used it once in the many years... used it when helping a friend move and put her futon frame on top. It has great Gas mileage.
I have no complaints for this car it's a wonderful car.
Bought it used with 240000 km for $900replaced inner tie rod because previos owner hit the curb.replaced exhaust pipe because I lent it to a friend and he went over a railroad track to hard.heater core leaked , so I cut a hole in the firewall and replaced it in an hour.Had trasmission filter changed without flushing just because its never been done.had to tighten up rocker box covers by puting inshorter bolts to stop oil leakage.I think the timing belt was replaced at 200000 km'sAlways starts on cold days -30 not plugged in.30+ mpg or 25 city.everything else is original including spark plugsregular oil changes every 5000 kmWe have 2 kids in boostersStill going at 300000km.
The escort was one of the best and most reliable cars I have ever owned. It is a great utility car and rides equally as well.
I own the basic LX model and am very happy with it.
We purchased this vehicle new in 1995 and we have kept up with the the oil changes every 3000 miles. Had only minor electrical problem in the beginning, but over all little maintenance was required. In 15 years only changed batteries, 2 set of tires and routine maintenance. Gas mileage is great in the city averages 24 on the open road averages 30.
Very roomey and lots of cargo space.
None. A great deal for the money!
I bought my Ford new in 1995.It was priced right got great gas mileage still does. I've never had any problems with it only regular maintenance. Hubby wants to buy me new car I said no.Love my car..
Comfortable to drive.

Skip to comments.John Kerry on presidential debate prep: I need exorcism to be rid of Mitt Romney
Posted on 10/17/2012 6:54:25 AM PDT by Sub-Driver
John Kerry on presidential debate prep: I need exorcism to be rid of Mitt Romney By: Kevin Robillard October 17, 2012 08:20 AM EDT
Sen. John Kerry joked Wednesday that hell need an exorcism after the final debate next week to purge Mitt Romney after playing the GOP presidential nominee for weeks in debate prep with President Barack Obama.
Its been an interesting exercise, Kerry said on MSNBCs Morning Joe. Ive decided next Tuesday Ive got to have an exorcism of Romney out of my being.
Meanwhile, Kerry, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, defended the administrations handling of the attack in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans, and called Romneys reaction not presidential.
You dont play games with national security, Kerry said. Before anybody knew the facts, Mitt Romney was politicizing this issue, and that is not presidential you dont do that if youre running for president. You get the facts. He criticized this administration, accused them of creating this event, before he even knew what this event was. Thats not presidential. Thats not the leadership we need.
(Excerpt) Read more at politico.com ...
Anybody know what horse face is talking about?
Oh John why the long face?
With a face that would scare a cat...
that must have been really hard for him to play the part of a wealthy Massachusets flip flopper.
Is it possible that Mitt was smarter than the President and knew it was the anniversay of 9-11?
You dont play games with national security
This coming from a man who mad military strategy in Iraq the centerpiece of his own campaign.
But didn't the Obama administration play games with national security by running with the false story about the video? It took them two weeks for them to "get the facts."
Poor John Kerry. He will never be President. He will never be Secretary of State. After January, he won't be Mr. Chairman anymore. And after speding decades in Ted Kennedy's large shadow, he is now outshined by the junior senator of his state. Poor John Kerry!
It was hard for him to play a man who made it on his own rather than going the gigolo route.
Lurch means he needs to get back to his day job
being a rich (5 times as rich as Romney) gigolo, masquerading as a foreign policy expert and man of the people (oh and experienced combat veteran, he served 4 months in Vietnam you know)
Stunning lack of civility. Welcome to the election of 1860 without the great oratory... we just need a few sparks to set all of this dry tinder ablaze...
What is left of free America needs an exocism to be rid of this America hating leftie Nancy Boy.
I swear we live in two different realities. When Romney is elected he will not have any peace. They will double down on destroying him. It will make the attacks on GWB look like a powder puff football game. No longer will either side just put aside their differences and find any common ground. There is no common ground left.
Did his wife give him permission to speak?
"..scare a cat"
Well, it is close to Holloween.
I may have mentioned this before, but I met that idiot John Kerry 3 times when I was a student in Boston. He came off to me as rude, condescending, unfriendly and a all around jerk. I was a liberal Democrat at the time as well. I was never so angry as when he did not even look at me in the eye during a political science reception and moved to talk to some bigwigs in suits.
I was amazed that he rose to be the nominee in 2004 because he came off as a phony...now smiling and waving and chatting with people he previously had contempt for.
I hate that man. I am glad the last time I ever saw him I said right to his face "you are a real jerk."
As far as Romney's treatment of National Security goes, Romney hasn't met with Al Queda, the Taliban, or the mullahs of Iran so he isn't a traitor like Kerry.
Do you really believe Teresa doesn't have a pre-nup? His wealth is conditioned on his behavior. If he gets kicked out of office, she might have to find herself another Senator.
Did you know JOhn Kerry served in Vietnam?
Shut your pie hole, you pretentions brahmin bull-squatter.
Shut your pie hole, you pretentions brahmin bull-squatter.
HA!!! See post #25. Great minds and all that...
John "Kicked out of the Navy" Kerry.
Remember Carter's discharge upgrade program?
Yowza! Did he say anything back?
That might be what comes back to bite your party into oblivion for years if the rumors running around Washington about what Libya was about are exposed and prosecuted.
If republicans win and go on a fact exposing and prosecution run instead of sweeping dem corruption under the rug run like they always have....
If I was a dem in power at the moment I would be terrified, because that really is the only option left for republicans and the American people to deal with how corrupt the dem party has become if they want to save America.
Let us face it...there is no law for dems and if it is allowed to continue then the next time they are in power they will never leave.
He nervously laughed, shook his head, and my friends, fearing I would get further in his face, pulled me away by my shoulders!
An "exorcism" is a good way to describe what's going to happen on Nov 7, 2012.
I seriously doubt Kerry could do an even halfway decent job of playing Mitt (or most any other person) in debate prep. He is a one trick elitist pony. He doesn't have the quickness of wit nor brain power to be able to emulate what Romney is able to do in these campaigns.
I am a begrudging Romney support now, but I do not in any way question his intellect, his communication skills, nor his ability to adapt in these debates. He's been great. Kerry is Kerry. I am sure his weak debate prep role contributed greatly to the first debate failure...and Obama last night just spit out the usual campaign rhetoric...he was able to do it a little better this time because he had experienced going head to head two weeks ago.
Kerry is a non-factor in this whole debate charade.
If he is still senator, then maybe he should keep that "exorsizable" spirit of Governor Romney and start voting smarter.
I don't know if it really makes a difference in how the public perceives the whole Libya issue, and the Democrats lie about everything all the time anyway...but maybe someone should be setting the record straight.
I think you're absolutely right in that they will try to destroy him both politically and personally. However, I believe we'll see a different response then we did during Bush's two terms. I don't see Romney staying above the fray and refusing to respond to the ad hominem attacks. That method may work for W in the (very)long run, but in the short term it destroyed his popularity. Romney knows how to give as good as he gets and manages to get under an opponents skin.
The whole country needs exorcism to get John Kerry out of our memories!!

Read that book; just don't open it | MIT News
Sunday, 11 September 2016
http://bit.ly/2bZiL0H "Terahertz frequency profiles distinguish between ink and blank paper."
Scanning an unopened book with a camera that emits ultra short bursts of radiation allows one to 'read' it's contents. This application is particularly useful for researchers like those who reference books at the Metropolitan Museum in NY who want to read books that are so rare or fragile that curators are hesitant to allow the books to be touched.
Soon the developers will have enhanced this technology to scan more than 9 pages and one day, whole books will be 'read' this way.
There is a nice vid in the article too.

Libraries 2016 |@PewResearch
Friday, 09 September 2016
Expectations are running high with the american public. We want more from our libraries and we use them for increasingly different reasons.
Since last year's Pew survey there has been a 13 point increase in the
Number of Americans who think libraries can help them find information that they can trust.
The findings in this report are encouraging, both for librarians who work daily in our communities and for the american public who are realising the relevance and essential nature of their library resource. The statistics for young adult readers are especially exciting for our new generation of Library and Information Professionals.

I want one.
I want to design one.
I want to help CASA.
Everyone wins!
"...'architects have a skill set that lends itself to charity.' More than just conceiving a fun playhouse, this project is about giving time to help children in need, with all funds raised from the raffle going to Dallas CASA. If you are interested in designing a playhouse for charity or want to learn more about Bob Borson's action within the Dallas community, check out his blog The Life of an Architect. The raffle ticket-winners have just been announced and playhouses should make it to their new homes soon, meaning more photos and interviews from this year's winners to come."
At Northpark Mall the 'Parade of Playhouses' sells $5 raffle tickets to support Dallas' CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates). https://www.dallascasa.org/
"This year's winning projects "Lookout" and "Continous Window" also combine elegant design and possible pragmatic use with playfulness – a criteria that designers surprisingly often forget."

Places for Ideas No One Has Thought Of &Things Yet to be Invented/Our Future Libraries @iftf /
Saturday, 27 August 2016
Librarians and their Libraries have shifted and morphed with us since we had papyri and charcoal, flint and bone. It is our contention that, as our world becomes ever more connected and the individual in contrast senses a growing seclusion and remove, libraries will provide a Commons, a safe Place to be together, and a repository of our past, present and future musings - be they on tape, in a book, in bytes in the Cloud or on a Holodeck.
Leave it to the brilliant and out-of-the-Box-Aussies to publish this piece "Libraries of the Future are going to change in some unexpected way", in a Business/Tech section.
Chris Weller in Business Insider Australia reports from an interview with David Pescovitz, (who has not Tweeted yet has 758 followers on Twitter!) , co-editor @BoingBoing and research director at the Institute for the Future , that the Libraries of your Future are going to be there with you.
They might not look like today's libraries but they will fulfill our deep societal need that will expand beyond our imaginings with information we haven't yet dreamed of and provide access to technologies not yet invented.
We change, Libraries change and, because we are libraries, they will keep pace and stay with us no matter where we go.

Leading the Creative Library, from the Library| @LibraryJournal @openIDEO
Thursday, 25 August 2016
"Creative leadership isn't about leaders simply becoming more creative. It's about individuals leading for creativity." (https://designthinking.ideo.com/?p=1474)
IDEO U has an online course "Leading for Creativity" to tempt you librarians out there on the creative edge. http://www.ideou.com/products/leading-for-creativity
Why does 'Work' = No One Has Fun?
The idea of a workplace that is actually fun to go to and in which I can be creative has long been my special interest. Working in 'the Cubical Culture' of late 80's Government Offices will have that effect.
I like Messrs Brown and Bell's take in their articles because they address tangentially another one of my special areas of curiosity: How can a library be designed to encourage creativity and a culture of acceptance and fun? While their articles gets to the core of how the Librarian leads the library and how that special leadership is crucial to expanding staff's feeling of freedom to be their true creative selves for the betterment of their library. I need to figure out how I will coach the librarians I work with to see how physical spaces affect our behaviours allowing their amazing creative juices to flow.
Once we truly grasp the principle that the buildings we go to each day can influence our interactions and moods, we understand how design decisions become reality: for the positive or the negative.
The Explorer
The Gardener
The Coach
How can I translate these roles of good 'leadership from out front' into touchstones that inspire exciting library design? I'll find my way.
I've signed up for my download of the Tool Kit: 'Design Thinking for Libraries'.

A little Bit of Sun; a whole lot of Community Envolvement; an Award Winning LIbrary
Tuesday, 23 August 2016
@WLIC2016 @amlibraries and @ IFLA have news for those of us who think we have insurmountable problems getting our new library building projects off the ground and running.
Landscape + Recycling + Childrens' Reading Needs + Community Engagement = The IFLA Green Library Award 2016. The Pequeño Sol Green Library
This is the 'formula' the people of Germinalia A.C., San Cristobal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico used for their sustainable new library project.
For their brilliant needs assessment; commitment to sustainability; community orgainisation and willingness to do the work - this community has received 1st Place: for "a project where sustainability was in the soul of the project from the first starting of the idea until to the new library"
The design is clear cut and simple in its inception and brilliant in its execution:
Foundation and concrete slab, mixed and hand poured by parents and young adults;
Wall construction: Recyclable containers carefully washed out and stockpiled by families fill cast-off wooden packing pallets, parged by hand;
and a roof of sturdy metal tops off this structure built with love and intelligent design.
But it is the manner in which this library was constructed, by hand and with total community commitment, that impresses anyone who watches this beautifully put together video: El Pequeño Sol ecological library (The Little Sun Ecological Library
Be prepared to never complain about your library again.

Somaliland Hopes Books Will Speak to its Diaspora|npr.org
Thursday, 18 August 2016
'A revolution has been happening (in Somaliland) in publishing books, reading, writing and literature,' says Musa...."
"Hamdi Ali Musa saw her first book when she was 10. Now 25, she's one of Hargeisa's only librarians." (shown in photo)
Somaliland is a self declared state (some sources say 'republic') and an autonomous region of Somalia.
It is also a region of Africa whose roots go back to the Neolithic Period. On the outskirts of the Capital, Hargeisa are the Laas Geel complex cave paintings "containing stratified archaeological infills capable of documenting the period when production economy appeared in this part of Somalia (circa 5th and 2nd millennium BCE)".(Wikipedia)
The capital of this republic is Hargeisa (Somali: Hargeysa, Arabic: هرجيسا is the second largest city in Somalia after Mogadishu. (source: Wikipedia).
And here's a fascinating fact ... for centuries until recent history (the end of the 1800's) when European Imperialist interests turned their attention to the region, splitting it up, negotiating treaties to alternately divide or reunite it and eventually leaving it to handle its own particular brand of civil war ... this country's people passed on their ancient legacy of stories in the Oral Tradition.
That's all changed now for a number of reasons, the need to join the community of nations being one of them. Books and their authors represent the renewed hope of these people who are widely spread across our globe as a diaspora - a country as an idea. Since 1972 the swelling initiative to support books written in Somali has been chiefly lead by the desire to gather together in a literary and a real way, the hundreds of thousands of Somalis that have fled this ancient land during its fight for independence and have not returned.
Somaliland has no passport agency and is not 'officially recognised' by the international community. It has no support from international aid agencies nor funds flowing to it from the World Bank. It does have a Book Fair, (site text not it English) and that's where librarian Hamdi Ali Musa enters this story. "The (Book Fair is the) biggest annual event in Somaliland, drawing 11,000 attendees this year, (is) an advertisement for a republic that showcases itself as a kind of "anti-Somalia."
I can not find any details about Hamdi Ali Musa other than what is reported by NPR (and republished by the online 'Samliland Informer'.) I am encouraged as should we all be, that a young woman is the stewart of this growing body of Somali literature, taking her country with her into her future.
Here is the link to the Hargeisa Library on Twitter. @HargeisaLibrary. Somliland skipped right over the 1900's and scooted right into the 21st with its communications and social media!

Hard men up to Israel challenge
Emunah's action men find themselves between a rock and a hard place
Twelve action men have returned to Britain after a gruelling physical ordeal in the Judean desert to raise over £50,000 for a children's care village and a phone counselling service for families in Sderot.
Emunah's Triple-E Challenge involved participants in five days of intense activity and teamwork in un-usually bad weather. They were galvanised by a visit to one of the beneficiaries — the Neve Landy Children's Village in the rural district of Even Shmuel — reported Hendon fitness trainer Neil Isaacson.
"Seeing the way the children are looked after by the home let us know that the hard work that was to come was all worthwhile. Some of them are from very difficult backgrounds where their parents can't look after them properly. So being in a warm, nurturing environment gives them a chance in life."
Mr Isaacson, 45, said the trip had been "inspirational. All of us were happy to co-operate in the name of a fantastic cause."
He also credited the training and guidance provided by Major Maxie Katzir and fellow desert expert Irad Fenichel. "They were invaluable to our being able to gel together and work so well as a team.
"On the first day we were divided into three groups and put through team-building exercises. This was vital as we ranged in ages from 19-61 and didn't all know each other."
A punishing schedule included trudging up the rocky climes of the Judean Hills, abseiling down cliffs, taking the most arduous route up Mount Masada and cycling down Mount Sodom.
But the most testing challenge was rebuilding a washed-away road following heavy rain to enable their vehicles to pass. "We spent three hours smoothing the road and filling it with rocks so we could get our Jeeps through," explained Alan Perrin, 50, from Golders Green, the husband of Triple E administrator Bayla Perrin.
The youngest particpant, 19-year-old Londoner Julian Gertner, took a week off from his medical studies after being asked "to fill-in for a late cancellation. I am so happy I did."
A follow-up to the charity's successful "Jewish princesses" events for women, the men's programme ended with a Bedouin feast.
Mrs Perrin congratulated participants on doing "brilliantly considering the severe weather, which included floods, avalanches and rock falls. It also proved a challenge for our ground crew who had to alter the logistics to meet the weather conditions."

The length of time for the expiration date or "best used before" date depends on the type of product, as well as the brand.
Perishable items (such as flax oils or certain probiotics) generally have shorter expiration dates. Although our warehouse is fully air-conditioned, these more fragile items are put in cold storage (freezer or refrigeration unit) for maximum freshness.
Our receiving department does its best to verify and then enter the correct expiration dates for all incoming products. However, discrepancies do occur from time to time. This being said, the exceptionally high turnover at iHerb ensures that our inventory is among the freshest in the industry.

It was long break since I last took bee pollen. The result was instant energy, no more sleepy heads. That helped me s geart deal in my work and family life. I am patiently waiting to see other effects of this product..
I'm beginning to implement bee pollen into my daily ritual of supplements, because I want to use only natural energy boosters from now on. This is organic pollen, which I really adore, and I'm happy how little you need to feel the difference. On top of great quality, this provides a great value. Absolutely love the speedy service at iHerb; Outstanding customer service is a strong competitive advantage for this company.

I have noticed that after taking this my energy levels have gone up. as a note of caution I would recommend you start out with small amounts because it can be a little overwhelming just how much energy this gives you. I have also noticed this increased libido I will update this if I notice anything else since I have only been taking this for 5 days

- Full Description
Traditional database management systems, widely used today, are not well-suited for a class of emerging applications, such as computer network management, homeland security, sensor computing, and environmental monitoring. These applications need to continuously process large amounts of data coming in the form of a stream, and meet stringent response time requirements. Support for handling QoS metrics, such as response time, memory usage, and throughput, is central to any system proposed for the above applications. Stream Data Processing: A Quality of Service Perspective (Modeling, Scheduling, Load Shedding, and Complex Event Processing), presents a new paradigm suitable for stream and complex event processing. This book covers a broad range of topics in stream data processing and includes detailed technical discussions of a number of proposed techniques. This volume is intended as a textbook for graduate courses and as a reference book for researchers, advanced-level students in CS, and IT practitioners.

A Colorado second-grader may be suspended from his elementary school after he disobeyed a key rule of no weapons, real or imaginary, when he tossed an imaginary grenade Friday during recess and went, 'pshhh,' to indicate that the imaginary device detonated, KDVR.com reported.
Alex Watkins,7, who attends Mary Blair Elementary in Loveland, said he was playing the game "Rescue the World." He plays the role of a heroic soldier out to rid the world of an evil threat.
His duties led him to throw the imaginary grenade into a box he pretended contained evil forces. He said he didn't make any threats and was playing by himself, KDVR.com reported.
"Honestly, I don't think the rule is very realistic for kids this age," Mandie Watkins, Alex's mom, told KDVR.com.
Alex, for his part, told the station that he can't believe he got "dispended."

The Burmese Government has, in effect, banned Aung San Suu Kyi from politics, setting the scene for another confrontation between the regime and its opponents.
Six months after the democracy leader was released from house arrest, her political party, the National League for Democracy (NLD), has been ordered to cease political and social activity. The order was made in a letter received by the party on Tuesday and reinforced by commentaries yesterday in three state-run newspapers that serve as government mouthpieces.
The decision to act against the NLD now may be motivated by Ms Suu Kyi's decision, revealed in The

Living in a small house often means that you need all your creativity to turn it into a great, multi-functional home. Sometimes it means that you're using your bedroom as an office space or that your kids are using the dining area as a study space. It might take a lot of time and energy to transform all of your rooms into fully functional spaces. So let's start with just one. Today we are going to talk about some simple steps on how to easily transform your children's room into your dream office space.
It can be pretty frustrating if the size of your house doesn't give you the opportunity to organize all of the space the way it all should be. Every member of the family should be able to get his own sleep and study or work space, kitchen should be big enough, you need your patio… We don't even need to mention the closets and storage spaces. But what happens when you're living in a small home? Sometimes it just doesn't seem like you're ready to give up on something just to get something else that you're not even sure that would work for you.
Let's stop there and think about what would it be like to have your own office space, right here, in your own home? We know you certainly sometimes dream about it, but you're convinced that you just don't have any spare rooms. Be sure that a little bit of imagination and creativity can improve your home interior in such way that you can make it happen. Where to start? How about redecorating and redesigning your children's room?
Why transform the children's room? First of all, think about your health. It is proven by many psychological studies that keeping your work stuff by your bed, diminishes your capability to rest well. In your children's room, however, there's already a study space they're using for their homework, etc. As they already have study desks and bookshelves, why not transform them so you could work there, too?
To make your office space, start by thinking about healthy and inviting color themes. What you need is a neutral, airy feel to it. White is always a good choice for walls, as it can be easily combined with different colors you can choose for all the other details in the room. One rule, though, keep it simple.
You can leave kids desks and add some more smart shelves for your documents and other office stuff you need. The best idea is to get some custom made shelves that will assure the best use of space. If it's possible, have shelves built into walls.
To make more space it the room, replace children's beds with double beds with storage space below. It's all about using all of the space available. And last, make sure you have a lot of natural light. Enjoy in your new work space.
Eco house – Building with natural materials
What are the basic characteristics of organic or natural construction?
Much is meant by the term natural construction, depending upon the one who used that term. The most important feature of this method of construction, as I see it, is that it consumes less energy – oil, natural energy and animals. It is often thought that the only materials that are available in nature (wood, stone, straw, clay …), but you can also use artificial materials such as vapor-permeable foil, if used sensibly. There are plenty of natural materials which are factory-processed (sawn timber, clay, plaster, stone work, etc.), but they have already spent part of the energy in the process of obtaining the final product.
Is this building together?
Firstly, the concept of the high cost varies from person to person, liable on the economic situation. Mostly people think that this type of construction very cheap because it is a material that can be found in nature. However, forgetting the fact that these materials before they are installed in the house (where again you have to hire a master) someone has to dig, demolish, process, prepare for installation… The construction is always expensive, if a man does not build one. So that's my answer – that such construction costs.
Where can I find material for this way of building a house?
This again depends on the taste of man, because we are not all equal. In principle, such material can be found all around us in nature, however, someone does not want to rough, gnarled tree and wants only straight lines. Same thing with the stone that some people do not like it rough. The walls of straw will be someone of high aesthetics as they are not straight. If you obtain your own material, you can buy in building centers, including clay plastering.
How long it takes expert knowledge to build?
Still need some professional knowledge, especially with regard to statics, the installation of the roof and chimney (stove). Others can be learned in the courses of construction, through specialized manuals, consultation, assisting on construction sites, etc.
Is it possible blend of traditional and modern building materials?
It is possible to connect tradition with modern materials which can be seen in a lot of companies in the world which are more or less successfully merged the two. There are a lot of materials that can be found in traditional construction. A nice example is water vapor permeable foil in the manufacture of the roof, which is safer than tar paper or when it is built without it. Further, plasterboard partition walls to accelerate construction at the same time making construction easier. Then there are OSB boards for floors and walls. Be sure to mention the various types of insulation (stone wool insulation factory processed sheep's wool insulation made from cellulose).
Straw is the most commonly used
Straw is a material used for thousands of years in the construction industry, and today seems to be gaining more and more popularity. Bales of straw are used not only as insulation, but they are real almost complete walls.
Many of us dream about changing the entire interior of our homes for at least once a year. If you're one of many who quickly get bored by the same old furniture, decorations and colors, there's a simple solution. You don't have to move to another house or apartment to feel the excitement and enjoy the new interior design. You just need to use some creativity and follow simple, small steps and make a big change. Let's talk about innovative interior updates that will make your home shine again.

What's the most impressive thing about a five star hotel room? It feels fresh, clean and modern. How do they do it, besides using a top interior designer from Pasadena CA? The number one is keeping it clean. It means that you have to remove all the things hanging off your chairs, all the unnecessary decoration of the shelves and organize everything. Keeping it clean also means that bedclothes must give the impression of freshness. It can easily be made by using clean, white sheets. When doing laundry, make sure you add some extra scented softeners. By the bed it should always be a little, romantic lamp that will add some warmness. Another interior tip for making your bedroom a five star hotel room is adding some artwork. Nice painting will add an unforgettable touch of luxury.
If there was one single thing that is always modern and has the greatest capability to make a house or an apartment a true home, it would certainly be natural materials. Replace all the metal details and all the decoration made of plastic with wooden parts, if possible. Use also perfectly natural fabrics as linen to cover chairs and beds. Hang wooden carved frames on the wall. It will bring freshness and warmness.
