State Highway 27 closed at Fairfield
Thu., Feb. 24, 2011, 1:42 p.m.
Rathdrum Prairie sees whiteout conditions on Idaho Hwy. 41
The Washington State Patrol this afternoon has closed state Highway 27 in both directions due to blowing snow and poor visibility between Fairfield and Tekoa.
The closure started about 1:30 p.m.
The National Weather Service this afternoon said that the near-whiteout conditions on the Palouse had the potential to be life threatening should motorists get stuck or go off the roads.
Earlier in the day, the Idaho State Police said visibility on the Rathdrum Prairie in Idaho was down to zero and the agency urged drivers to stay away from the area.
High winds are creating heavy snowdrifts on State Highway 41 as well as county roads, police say, and there have been numerous slide-offs and crashes.

On a hot Tel Aviv night, more than 60,000 people gathered together in Tel Aviv's Yarkon Park to watch music legends Guns N' Roses rock out for a whopping 3 hours.
Okay, that's enough "official concert review lingo." I am not a journalist, and my iTunes catalog may or may not include Debbie Gibson, *Milli Vanilli, and the Pointer Sisters. (*Zichrono l'vracha to Milli.) I did not attend this concert because anyone confused me with a precocious, teenage, music-loving Cameron Crowe. I came to Yarkon Park to sweat, to have fun, and to get in touch with my inner nice-Jewish-boy 15 year-old self, who unknowingly sang along to heroin-inspired lyrics. Not heroine, as in Hannah Senesh. Heroin, as in "Mr. Brownstone." And if you thought you'd ever read the name "Hannah Senesh" in a GnR concert review, please come to will call to collect your prize.
The band's current tour is called "Not in this lifetime" named for the answer Axl Rose gave in 2012 when asked if the original band would ever reunite, and also when the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv high-speed train is expected to be finished. But there they were: Axl, legendary guitar player Slash, bass player Duff McKagan, and some other people who did absolutely nothing wrong all night.
Earlier this week, it was reported that the show would start thirty-minutes earlier than planned, making it three hours long, instead of two and a half. Considering you can easily go on Youtube and watch other shows from the current tour which all clock in right around three hours, I find it hard to believe that the show length was unknown until this week. Was this some ploy to get Shabbat-observant fans to buy tickets, expecting to see most of the show before this week's announcement? I don't know, but it stunk

As if the people living in the Jungle have not had enough obstacles to deal with along the way…
As if the journey, the situation, the future isn't hard enough…
This week saw the explosion of a gas canister in the camp, resulting in the surrounding makeshift homes people have struggled to build with minimal resources, catching alight.
Calais 'Jungle' Fire 1 November 2015 from Shafiur Rahman on Vimeo.
The people of the camp tried as best they could to contain the blaze, tearing down nearby houses, using plastic bottles to throw water into the flames, and do anything else they could to control the situation. As it died down, they picked out what they could from the embers, bags of pasta, blankets, whilst kids were standing round in bare feet, watching.
Situations like this break my heart. How can it be fair, that people with so little, continue to get what they do have ripped away? A house fire in the UK is terrible enough, but in this camp, having to start all over again seems enough to truly break the human spirit. Although I am proved wrong time and time again. This isn't the first fire I have seen in the camp, another of my friends woke up to his tent on fire after a candle had fallen over, but as we looked at the remains of his 'home', he reminded me, 'these things can all be replaced, my health, my body, my mind, those can not.'
This video was filmed, and photos taken, by the amazing Shafiur Rahman at Z/Six Oranges

So - you are inside your LAN - attempting to connect to your own external IP address. I do not think that a router will let you do that... I'm not sure why, I just recall this coming up before. There may be a way to force it, but if all you need to do is test how things look/respond to others, surf back to yourself using a free proxy service.

The problem is solved now. I think my DNS server was not properly updated...I see that directly entering an IP address instead of a hostname still goes through the DNS servers, due to the fact that I couldn't access my server with just the ip address (my external IP). I can now however use both hostname and external IP to visit my server from within my LAN network...

Being Thankful in Grief by Sara Nelson
Being Thankful in Grief
My daughter and I were the best of friends. People who didn't know us often thought we were sisters, because of our cheerful camaraderie. She was an only child, and perhaps, growing up as an army family with my husband often away for extended periods, our bond as a mother and daughter grew uncommonly close. All the more reason why her passing cut so incredibly deep.
2013 was a rough year. Health problems emerged for which we never did find the cause, but she began having seizures. There were financial hardships. Then, she and her husband separated. As 2014 began, we looked forward to a more hope-filled and brighter year. We had just celebrated her 36th birthday. And then, suddenly, she was gone.
When tragedies happen, everyone wants to know why. Why did this happen? I don't have all the answers, but I do know this. In John 16:33, Jesus said, "In this world you will have tribulation, but be of good cheer. I have overcome the world." Life is not always sunny and happy and wonderful. Sometimes, there's pain. Jesus said himself troubles would come, BUT not to despair. He overcame, so we could be overcomers.
That's the kind of promise I cling to in my heartbreak. I am thankful for the overcoming grace of God which sustains us, even in this. I am thankful for God's loving arms which I cling to in my tears. I'm thankful for my relationship with God, and for knowing, before this ever happened, that God is good and kind and loving. He cares, and He carries our grief.
I am thankful for many things. I'm thankful she doesn't have seizures anymore, and she is completely whole and well. I'm thankful that the cares and heartaches of this world which were such a burden in the last year of her life, no longer plague her. I know she is joyful in the presence of God.
I'm thankful for all the wonderful years of her life we had together. Such good memories to cherish! I might have been childless, otherwise. She was our miracle. I'm thankful for God blessing us with her and for every year of her life.
I'm thankful for what a blessing she was to others. She was a gifted teacher and touched more lives than she even knew. People still come up to us and share anecdotes of ways she ministered to them or their child. I am thankful for her gifts and talents and the precious legacy she left to us.
I had sometimes thought about my daughter's eventual grief when she would face losing her father and me. I would rather bear this grief for her than that she should have to bear it for us. I'm thankful she won't have to grieve for us someday.
I'm thankful for this taste of grief, bitter as it is, because I've grown so much in ways I might not have otherwise. I never realized how many people are walking through a grief journey of their own. Before, I might have felt compassion, but now, I know what it's like. It's true that we are able to comfort others because of the comfort we have received. (2 Corinthians 1:3-4)
I'm thankful for the promise of heaven for those who trust and believe in Jesus. The movie, Heaven is For Real, came out a short time after her passing, and it blessed us so much. Other books and testimonies have also helped strengthen our vision and understanding of what heaven is like. These things have greatly encouraged and comforted us.
God does not keep every bad thing from happening, but He is very much with us in our sorrow. He comforts, and strengthens, and helps us go on, even when—especially when—we think we cannot. And, that is worthy of thanksgiving.
Sara Faith Nelson is a retired teacher and aspiring writer. She writes devotions and blogs about her grief journey on her website, Sunshine for the Journey. Many have said they've been comforted and encouraged by her sharing. On her Facebook page, she enjoys passing on positive and hope-filled messages. She and her husband live in Arizona. Sara enjoys bird-watching, rock collecting, and adding to her collection of coffee mugs and tea cups.

With graduation not too far away for our oldest, I was curious what Parenting for Launch would be about and if I'd be encouraged or feeling like I missed out as a parent. Turns out Parenting for Launch is a comprehensive look at preparing your child for success. There are principles that cover every aspect of the transition from teen to young adult. I love what chapter one covers—giving our children wings, not strings. That's just one area the book covers.
There are also "Take 5" activities for you to work through and the appendices include checklists, charts and other resources. I walked away feeling empowered. There's a lot of room for us to improve and now we have the tools to help us get there.
No matter whether your child is in kindergarten or ready to start their senior year, I recommend Parenting for Launch:Raising Teens to Succeed in the Real World.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

New Beginnings
by Sharron Cosby
Christmas. The mere mention of the word sends thoughts and memories skittering like a box of spilled ornaments. Some roll toward sweet remembrances of times shared with family. Others bounce to the let's-not-go-there corner of our minds.
I recall Christmas 2009. The one I wanted to cancel. My only son is an addict, and this was his worst year ever. I had convinced myself it would be his last, assuming he would be in prison or dead by the next Christmas. I told my daughters we would exchange gifts and have our usual holiday dinner, but no tree or decorations. I couldn't dredge up the emotional energy to plaster contrived cheer around the house.
I'm usually the decorator, gift purchaser, food preparer, and mess cleaner-upper. Executing the necessary holiday tasks takes time and effort. Worrying about my son had left me drained of the required get-up-and-go. I couldn't do it. Thank goodness for online shopping; at least there would be presents to hand out.
My pastor's message four days before Christmas cut straight through my Scrooge-like attitude. His sermon points were: The holidays are too much trouble, count your blessings, and forgive someone.
Considering Christmas too much trouble reflects a selfish attitude, according to my pastor. What if Jesus had thought that way? My icy heart began to thaw.
The second point, count your blessings, stopped me dead in my tracks. Count blessings with a broken heart? I considered my husband's love and my two daughters who have stood by their brother. I smiled as I pictured the faces of my four grandsons and the joy they brought our family. Yes, I had many blessings to number.
The third was the hardest: forgiveness. Forgive my son for the pain and suffering he had caused? "God, you can't be serious," I protested. "We've spent thousands of dollars on him, he's broken our hearts, and he's in worse shape than ever before."
"Forgive him," the Spirit whispered.
Tears slid down my face as I chose to forgive my son. No strings attached.
After church I headed home with a changed attitude. When my husband left for work, I retrieved the ornaments, dragged the Christmas tree from the garage, and set it up, my gift to the family. Decorating our tree with the children's handmade ornaments is always a joint project, but that day I worked alone. I held the clothespin reindeers, popsicle stick picture frames, and monogramed angels and remembered the good times.
With tear-filled eyes, I watched as amazement etched the faces of my daughters when they came to our home Christmas morning and saw the decorated tree. "Mom! You put up the tree after all," they said.
The biggest surprise of the day came when our daughter's boyfriend knelt in front of her and asked, "Will you marry me?"
The discouragement of addiction was replaced with the joy of new beginnings, which is, after all, the message of the Christ Child.

'Mass Effect: Andromeda': Animation Won't Be Fixed Today
As reported before, "Mass Effect: Andromeda" will get a patch on its first official day being out in the market. Unfortunately, it will not resolve the facial animation issues.
Since the early access for "Mass Effect: Andromeda" went live last week, the game made rounds for the wrong reason, unfortunately. Players immediately noticed the awkward facial animations that the characters showed in the gameplay.
@JohnCharling At day 1? No, that ship has sailed. We'll have more patches later on, but exactly what goes into them is still in discussion.— Ian Soon Frazier (@tibermoon) 16 March 2017
A player asked the game's lead designer from BioWare, Ian Frazier, on Twitter whether the first day patch will fix the issue, and this is what Frazier had to say: "At day 1? No, that ship has sailed. We'll have more patches later on, but exactly what goes into them is still in discussion." While the awkward facial animations were identified at an earlier time, more players complained and made fun of the issue in time for the opening of the game's early access release. More people shared their pieces of rants and laughs through graphics interchange format, aka GIF, images posted on several social networking sites.
i dont think ill ever get tired of trashing the new Mass Effect pic.twitter.com/jwXxdaRCtU— Nathan Ranney (@RatCasket) 16 March 2017
As reports pointed out, the facial animations are highly visible when characters are on the move. However, the flaw is also very noticeable even when the characters are just speaking their dialogues. One player even said through Twitter, "I don't think I'll ever get tired of trashing the new 'Mass Effect [Andromeda].'"
Disappointingly, some players decided to go overboard and harassed a female employee of the game's publisher, Electronic Arts.
Allie Rose-Marie Leost experienced a lot of uncalled for tweets and messages attacking her for being a woman working in the gaming industry. According to Kotaku, the cruel campaign against Leost was instigated by Ralph Retort, an identified "right-wing, GamerGate-tied website" blogger.
The same report noted that Retort told his followers that Leost worked as the lead facial animator for "Mass Effect: Andromeda."
However, the game's developer, BioWare, quickly addressed the issue, saying Leost was a former EA employee who has been "misidentified as a lead member" of the game's development team. BioWare directly clarified that these claims are false, and while they maintain they respect players' feedbacks, "attacking individuals ... is never acceptable."
"Mass Effect: Andromeda" will be launched on Tuesday, March 21.


text: (The following statement was released by the rating agency) HONG KONG, June 02 (Fitch) Fitch Ratings views Nan Fung International Holdings Limited's (BBB/Stable) acquisition of a commercial development site in Hong Kong's Kai Tak Development Area as neutral for its ratings. The agency does not expect Nan Fung's credit metrics to deteriorate significantly following the settlement of the land cost, thanks to its solid financial profile and strong contracted sales inflows. The potential annual rental EBITDA of HKD0.8 billion-0.9 billion from the project, which is due to be completed in or after 2022, will also support the ratings. Nan Fung acquired the site for about HKD24.6 billion on 31 May 2017 via a land sale tender by the Hong Kong government. The maximum lettable gross floor area will be about 1.9 million square feet (sq ft). The land premium works out to be HKD12,864 per sq ft of lettable area, which was slightly above the high-end of market expectations. The development will comprise primarily a Grade A office building, with potentially retail and hotel elements on the site. Fitch expects the site's close proximity to the new Kai Tak MTR Station, strong demand for Grade A office space in Hong Kong, and a resilient property market in Hong Kong to help to preserve the capital value of the project. Fitch expects Nan Fung to fund the acquisition mainly with cash on hand, operating cash inflows from property development, and additional bank loans. Fitch also expects Nan Fung to dispose of some non-core investment-property assets to maintain a stable total debt level of HKD25 billion at end-September 2016 (HKD 25bn). Nan Fung had a cash balance of HKD21 billion at end-September 2016, which can be used to fund most of the land acquisition cost. Given the sizeable investment in the Kai Tak project, Fitch does not expect Nan Fung to make any major acquisitions for property development in the near term. Fitch estimates Nan Fung's recurring EBITDA/gross interest-coverage ratio will remain stable at about 2x at the end of the financial year to March 2017 (FYE17) and FYE18 (1.9x in FYE16) as Nan Fung has a few refinancing plans in place to lower its average cost of financing. Fitch estimates Nan Fung's net debt/investment-property value will increase to about 20% at FYE18 (1% at FYE16) after the settlement of the land acquisition cost and completion of disposal of non-core assets, which Fitch considers manageable for its current ratings.

The Mahout patch of the algorithm is not handling all types of sparse input efficiently. BtJob doesn't handle SequentialSparseVector in a way to pick only non-zero elements from initial input and QJob doesn't iterate over RandomAccessSparseVector correctly. With extremely sparse inputs (0.05% non-zero elements) that leads to a terrible inefficiency in the aforementioned jobs (QJob, BtJob).

is that the best way to do row-wise outer product computation (rows A and Q)?
if ( (aRow instanceof SequentialAccessSparseVector) || (aRow instanceof RandomAccessSparseVector )) { for ( Vector.Element el:aRow ) { double mul=el.get(); for ( int j =0; j < kp; j++ ) btRow.setQuick(j, mul * qRow.getQuick(j)); btKey.set(el.index()); context.write(btKey, btValue); } } else { int n = aRow.size(); for (int i = 0; i < n; i++) { double mul = aRow.getQuick(i); for (int j = 0; j < kp; j++) btRow.setQuick(j, mul * qRow.getQuick(j)); btKey.set(i); context.write(btKey, btValue); } }
adding missing support for sparse vectors during projection and multiplication (partial outer product computation)
Vector has properties isDense() and isSequentialAccess() which should prevent us from ever needing instanceof. The patch doesn't quite match code style, but, that's minor enough. It'll get cleaned up eventually by me, though might have a glance at the rest of the code for spacing / brace conventions and such.
Otherwise I'm sure you're welcome to proceed.
Yeah. I looked the instanceof use somewhere in DRM code, it would seem either vector contract deficient, or it was not used properly. I'll patch it.
Strange. I committed that patch yesterday since a user was waiting to validate this code. Jenkins did not comment on it, although i am pretty sure it had the issue number in the commit comment.

Let me do one more round on this, please. Please don't close it yet. Thanks.

- reworked to use Vector#isDense().
- isolating code with valid warnings and marking them with @SuppressWarnings().
- adding test for sparse matrix.
Fixing checkstyle complaints.
I will let this patch sit for another day and commit it if no objections. This is a small change.

MAHOUT-638: fixing a row multiplication for sparse input
This of course is still wrong. I looked at the implementAtion of the full iterator in sparse vectors and it does sequential iteration, whereas I assumed it is equivAlent to iteratenonzero. So this fix is not the right one and sparse inputs are still handled deficiently.
I cannot reopen this one, so I will commit the quick fix for that in one of the other re lated issues.
but it doesn't show all zeros, right? otherwise, what's the best way to iterate thru non-zero elements of a sparse vector?
i just want not to iterate thru millions of zeros, but i am ok to iterate thru few of them.
Right. IterateNonZero is allowed to not returned zeros, but it is not guaranteed to never return a zero.
If you want to go faster, then it is the thing to use. There is no contract, however, that says that it will be faster and for a dense matrix, it may well not be. It would be good to have the dense iterator avoid showing zeros if only to avoid constructing the little Element structure unnecessarily.
Ok... my latest version to compute Y buffer (which also may be sparse, but i handled it separately looks like this :
public void computeYRow(Vector aRow, double[] yRow) { // assert yRow.length == kp; Arrays.fill(yRow, 0.0); if (aRow.isDense()) { int n = aRow.size(); for (int j = 0; j < n; j++) { accumDots(j, aRow.getQuick(j), yRow); } } else { for (Iterator<Element> iter = aRow.iterateNonZero(); iter.hasNext();) { Element el = iter.next(); accumDots(el.index(), el.get(), yRow); } } }
Does it look good to you? Do you think Y should be handled as RandomAcessSparseVector instead?
I don't know the context well enough here.
Why is simple multiplication not good enough here?
it's random projection multiplication Y_{i*}=A_{i*}
\Omega (part of the Omega class). Since that's the only operation we ever do with Omega, i did not feel like I needed to implement the whole Matrix api for Omega; and even if i did, it would've looked as something similar except here it is optimized to re-use the same holder object (yRow).
I went ahead and implemented a random matrix to make things like this easier.

Bruno Mars, Jessie J Top UK Charts
By Paul Sexton
Bruno Mars' "Doo-Wops & Hooligans" (Elektra/Warner Music) celebrated a year on the U.K. album chart yesterday (Jan. 15) by going back to where it started, at No. 1. Multiple BRIT Award nominee Jessie J is celebrating her second chart-topping single in the market after "Domino" (Lava/Universal Island), also currently her first top 20 success on the Billboard Hot 100, climbed 8-1.
Mars' album debuted at the album chart summit a year ago, falling to No. 2 in its second week, but has never dropped lower than No. 14 in its entire sales year. It now has total U.K. sales of 1.28 million copies, according to the Official Charts Company, but sold a mere 24,000 new units last week to go back to the top. Last week's No. 1, Adele's "21" (XL Recordings), fell to runner-up spot as another star of last week's BRIT Award nominations, Ed Sheeran, held at No. 3 with "+" (Asylum/Warner Music).
Londo rock band the Maccabees, whose third album "Given To The Wild" (Fiction/Polydor/Universal) had topped the midweek sales flashes, landed at No. 4 on the official week-end chart. That's still a career-best ranking, after "Colour It In" reached No. 24 in 2007 and "Wall of Arms" No. 13 in 2009.
In a further sign that rock music is staging a comeback after last year's chart domination by female artists, three more titles returned to the top ten, all by artists with new BRIT Award nominations. The Vaccines' "What Did You Expect From The Vaccines" (Columbia/Sony Music Entertainment) climbed 16-6, having debuted at No. 4 last March; "Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds" (Sour Mash) rebounded 14-8, three months after opening at No. 1; and another Columbia rock heavyweight, Kasabian, moved back 17-9 with "Velociraptor," which had a week at No. 1 at the end of September. There's still no moving "Now! That's What I Call Music 80" (EMI TV/Universal Music TV) on the compilation chart, which it tops for an eighth week.
Jessie J narrowly missed the No. 1 spot with her debut U.K. hit "Do It Like A Dude," which peaked at No. 2 in this week last year. But she then had two weeks at the summit last February with "Price Tag," featuring B.O.B., and now visits the rarified atmosphere again with "Domino," on sales of 57,000 units. It's the fifth U.K. top ten single from "Who You Are," which fell 8-12 on the new album chart.
Last week's No. 1 single, Flo Rida's "Good Feeling" (Atlantic/Warner Music), dipped to No. 2, as hip-hop duo Rizzle Kicks climbed again 5-3 with "Mama Do The Hump" (Universal Island). "Dedication To My Ex (Miss That)" (Interscope/Universal) by Lloyd featuring Andre 3000 and Lil Wayne also improved again, 10-5, while "Titanium" (Positiva/Virgin/EMI) by David Guetta featuring Sia raced 61-8, having spent two weeks in the top 40 last August, peaking at No. 16. Beyoncé's "Love On Top" (Parkwood Entertainment/Columbia/Sony Music Entertainment) jumped 20-13 and Pixie Lott's "Kiss The Stars" (Mercury/Universal) made its top 75 debut at No. 14.

VERY Helpful little audibook
I listened to this audiobook on my IPhone while taking the subway or walking to work. The tips are short and concise, so you can stop at any point and later pick right back up.
The tips are extremely helpful.
It made me realize that you can break the LSAT down into small little chunks, and that makes the whole process so much easier.
Wonderful and important companion to any study guide. Highly recommended.
- Mike
well written
I used this audiobook as a supplement (I used the Manhattan LSAT books) when I was studying for the LSAT I purposely waited to write this review after I get my LSAT score back. I got a 177! I used the study guides as the meat and potatoes of my studying, this book as an "easy" listen (and read) in my car, as well as the unorthodox LSAT reading comprehension course. All of that added up to my score, which I am obvioulsy happy about. Since this review is about this book, a little bit about what I specifically liked about it. For one, you hear a variety of different perspectives, with some of them clicking extremly well. Second, there are tips about how to study, and how to deal with test anxiety. Third, in a quick two hours you can review almost every aspect of the test (I cummuted to work an hour each way) and that was very helpful. Good luck to the next generation of test takers!

When I mention the greatest mystery in history of the world, what comes to your mind? Well, as I sat thinking in the early hours I realized there are many mysteries known…or unknown, to mankind, as the case may be. I decided to do a quick search, and if you want to fathom a few, have at it here.
But, like it or not, rejoice over it or not, there is a great mystery that all must eventually contend with for themselves, for there is no getting around it. I have been Re-enjoying (I know it's not a word, but I just made it one- and that is OK, right Kel?) God Is In The Manger by Dietrich Bonhoeffer anew this Advent season. I am faced with the reality of wrestling with the Great Mystery of God once more, and it never ceases to amaze me.

Well, here we are for DAY Four of our 12 Days of Christmas- Journaling Prompts for the Season. You probably have guessed our focus for today's journaling. There's nothing like a good old quote to get the creative juices flowing. Well, let's hope so. As a matter of fact, I do so love a good quote. I season my journal and planners with words I long to dine on repeatedly. A well turned out phrase can spark our imagination, offer great insight, and send us off running in a direction we had not anticipated!

Bellevue, WA (PressExposure) July 04, 2011 -- Boar hunting is basically the practice of hunting wild boars, but can also extend to feral pigs and peccaries. Whether or not one is a highly trained skilled hunter trying to find something new or simply enthralled by the concept of hunting hogs, boar hunting is attracting the hunters. Boar hunting is quickly turning into a form of most liked pass time these days. Unlike numerous other types of hunting which entail lying waiting around and stalking the prey boar hunting is where one can just tactic the hog head on resulting in an actually exhilarating hunt.

The one downside of boar hunting is that they are vulnerable to acquiring disease and for this very reason you ought to constantly inspect the glimpse with the animal before you hunt it. Indications of disorientation labored breathing or slowness implies-'look for another one'.
Boars are extremely noisy creatures. One can even hear a hog squeal from a quarter of a mile away. Grunts can be heard from close.Hogs are often so intent on their feeding that hunters can approach very close which is not possible with feeding deer without being detected. Hogs generally like thick areas to hide in and feed especially briar thickets and young pine plantations.
Of course one can find a lot more reasons to engage in hog hunting than just for his or her meat. Numerous hunters particularly those who accumulate trophies or taxidermies animals appreciate hunting them for his or her precious tusks. The wellness intelligence and age from the animal also play an important function in selecting which boar to hunt.
Some hunters who desire a much more long lasting satisfaction will in fact watch herds above lengthy periods of time monitoring various litters of piglets to meet desirable characteristics. It's not possible to describe what it would feel like when one would discover the thrill of encountering the beast one have been tracking so painstakingly, carefully.

This one has been a long time coming--you could say the only person I was ever really fanatical about, as I never have the time to have one subject on the brain 24/7. It's unhealthy, and unsavoury. I have always been
100% pro-Ricardian, and finding his remains and stating that they were Richard's--on my mother's birthday,
last year, was one of the happiest days of my life.
There has been renewed interest in Richard III since the discovery of his remains beneath a Leicester car park in the autumn of 2012. Part of the mystery was solved on 4 February 2013, when it was revealed that he was not the diminutive, hunchbacked monster of Tudor myth, but a tall (for his time), good-looking man who suffered from scoliosis of the spine, a condition which would not have been noticed as he went about everyday life. If the Tudor propagandists perpetrated this myth—their theory being that to sanitize Henry VII, it was necessary to blacken the name of his predecessor—what else was made up? Richard remains the most controversial monarch to have occupied the British throne. During his brief reign he was loved and respected by his subjects. His fighting skills were second to none: his loyalty towards his brother, Edward IV, cannot be disputed. From an early age he was compelled to find his own way in life in a violence-orientated world: the brooding archetypal loner who, even when he acquired power, still preferred the quiet Yorkshire countryside to the artificialities of the royal court, where no man was trusting of his fellow. Edward IV's sudden death plunged England into chaos. Richard, named by him as Protector of his young sons, Edward V and Richard of York, was faced with the dilemma that England would again succumb to the anarchy brought about by the last royal minority—that of Henry VI. He was also faced with the rapaciousness of the boys' family, the much-hated Woodvilles. The boys were placed within the Tower, but were never seen again, setting in motion a mystery which has never been solved. Did Richard kill his nephews, or were they dispatched by the Duke of Buckingham, or by Henry Tudor and his scheming mother, Margaret Beaufort? What was the true nature of the relationship between Richard and Buckingham? Was Buckingham hoping to use "bromance" as a means of ensnaring Richard to be used as a scapegoat for the heinous crime he was about to perpetrate? Or was Richard simply too trusting, caught out when he was at his weakest—mourning a brother he had adored? The fact that he still has many thousands of devoted supporters, more than 500 years after his death, only points to the fact that Richard III was more than just a king. He was a legend.

Databases are important. Databases pay my bills, and presumably those of many of you reading this blog. But there are more important things in life than databases. I'd like to tell you a short story of how faith and perseverance can move mountains. I'd like to tell you about Ryan FitzPatrick, his family, and some people who believed in all of them; people who perhaps came to believe in themselves a little more after watching what this family has been through over the last year.
Last August, Ryan and my son Kyle were among the boys playing for the Redmond West team in a 12-year-old Little League All-Star tournament in
Well, in the championship game of the Sumner tournament, Ryan was warming up to pitch the sixth inning. His father, Dave, and I were standing next to each other on the third base line as we had so many times, sharing our usual banter and good humor as we anticipated another victory from our sons' very good team, when we heard an awful snap from the pitcher's mound and saw Ryan fall to the ground in a heap. I can't remember when I've seen a human being move faster than Dave did to that pitcher's mound. Those of a vintage to remember the travails of Dave Dravecky will understand the fear we all felt.
Dave rushed Ryan to the hospital, where it was discovered that he had fractured his right arm while throwing a warm-up pitch. After some initial challenges finding a diagnosis through six long weeks, Ryan and his family finally found the right doctors at Children's
We heard from Dave periodically through the fall and winter, as he kept us up to date on the family's odyssey through the treatment and rehabilitation process. Ryan got clearance to play basketball in October, but even though the void in his bone was filling in, throwing a baseball was still out. Imagine my surprise, then, when I took Kyle and Zach (who by this point had relocated here and was playing baseball with Kyle) to their first Babe Ruth League practice this past March and found Ryan and Dave!
If Ryan's right arm had healed to the point that he was able to play baseball this spring in the manner to which he was accustomed, that would be one heck of story; a story worth telling. But that's not how Ryan's saga has played out, at least to this point, and to my mind the events that have unfolded make for an even more remarkable tale.
Ryan FitzPatrick showed up at that practice with a right-handed glove, throwing left-handed.
During his recuperation over the winter, when his grandmother heard he'd be unable to play baseball because of the damage to his right arm, she asked (with that wonderful innocence typical of those with great, world-challenging ideas), "why can't he throw left-handed?" Ryan rose to the challenge, as did Dave and his wife, Ryan's mom, Corinne, who spent hours with him over the winter in their backyard working with him on his new throwing motion.
In our pre-season practices, it was readily apparent how hard Ryan was working. His movements, previously so graceful and natural, were different – actions which had been instinctive when he threw with his right hand required conscious thought to execute with his left, and early on you could see those wheels turning. With each practice, though, his movements grew less halting and more fluid. It was a remarkable transformation to watch, but the best thing about it was that the smile never left Ryan's face.
Imagine for a moment you're a thirteen year old boy who perhaps takes for granted – as most gifted thirteen year olds might – his ability to perform at a certain level on a baseball field. Then consider having your arm fracture in the middle of doing the thing you love doing most in the world, and having your doctor tell you that you can't do that thing anymore. Then imagine working all winter with your mom to re-learn things that have been easy for you for your whole life. Then imagine showing up at spring practice, in front of people who remember you being a great player, doing everything "backwards."
Ryan FitzPatrick has more guts in the hangnail on his left-hand pinky than this old fart has in his whole body.
Bill Mobley, the coach of our team, the Redmond Red Sox of the 13-and-under division of the Redmond Baseball Association, is another inspirational figure in this tale. It was Bill who took a chance and gave Ryan an opportunity to play. The effect this would have on Ryan – indeed, on the whole team – is still in the process of unfolding, but the state of affairs to this point is remarkable indeed.
The Red Sox won the Redmond City Championship in their age group by going 11-2 through the season as well as winning three games in the city tournament, with Ryan making his usual noise with his bat, as well as contributing strong defense at first and second base. My strongest and fondest memory of this season, strangely enough, is of one of the two games the team lost.
The Red Sox were getting blown out by the North Bend Rainiers. None of the team's pitchers had performed particularly well, and the defense was flat. The Red Sox were down by at least ten runs, and the pitching staff was being battered with no signs of relief (pardon the pun) in sight. North Bend was looking as though it might be the Red Sox'
With one out in the fifth inning, three pitchers and eight runs into the inning already, Bill Mobley took another chance. He brought in Ryan FitzPatrick, newly minted left-handed reliever, to pitch to the
It didn't start out that well; Ryan walked the first batter, beaned the second, walked the third and gave up a triple to the fourth, allowing three runs to score. Once again, though, Bill Mobley didn't give up on Ryan and Ryan didn't give up on the game he loves. Not only did he settle down after that rocky start, he struck out the next two batters he faced to end the inning. The smile on Ryan's face after that first strikeout is something that I hope I never forget. It could have powered all of the data centers at Microsoft, with enough juice left over to light up Safeco Field.
Beyond that, though, in the middle of a blowout loss, the entire Red Sox team was cheering for Ryan. He was mobbed after that inning as though it was the seventh game of the World Series. Nobody cared anymore that the score of the game was something like 17-2. Everybody's emphasis was on Ryan's remarkable performance and the joy he took in it – not just that afternoon in
This is the brilliance of Bill Mobley, and the power of team sports, in a nutshell. A loss that could have crippled the team's psyche for the rest of the season instead turned into a rallying point for all of the boys on the team.
Ryan had faith in himself. Bill Mobley had faith in Ryan. Mountains were moved.
I don't think it's a coincidence that the boys haven't lost a game since that day. After sweeping through the rest of the season and the
Whatever happens in that game, though, I will always treasure knowing Ryan and his family, and the lessons my boys and I have learned through that happy acquaintance. Lessons about faith and perseverance. Lessons about trust and joy. Lessons about asking "what can I do to make this better?" instead of asking "why did this happen to me?"
Wherever I hear from Ryan FitzPatrick in the future – and I am confident that I will, be it on the ball field or in the board room – I'll always remember how much he taught his elders in his fourteenth year.
And we're not done yet. Ryan FitzPatrick, throwing left-handed for the first time in his young life, made the All-Star team for the
Truly a field of dreams.

JOHANNESBURG, April 12 (Reuters) - South Africa's new Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba said on Wednesday treasury is committed to fiscal consolidation plans outlined in the 2017 budget after S&P and Fitch downgraded the country to sub-investment grade.
Speaking to local investors at the Development Bank of South Africa, Gigaba said the Treasury aims to stabilise the government's net debt over the next three years at 50 percent of gross domestic production (GDP).
Last week Fitch downgraded South Africa's foreign and local currency debt to speculative grade, while S&P Global Ratings cut the hard currency borrowing to "junk". Both cited likely changes in economic policy after a cabinet reshuffle. (Reporting by Mfuneko Toyana; Writing by Nqobile Dludla; Editing by James Macharia)

What is modified testing?
Alternate assessment based on
academic achievement standards, or modified curriculum.
In Texas, this is STAAR-M.
Who can take a modified test?
How is a modified test different from a standard STAAR test?
TEA has created guidelines to ensure consistency when modifying STAAR test items. Modifications are made to test questions while maintaining alignment with grade-level or course content standards.
Change is coming.
U.S. Department of Education stated that with the development and implementation of more accessible general assessments, combined with appropriate supports and instruction, modified academic achievement standards and alternate assessments based on those standards will no longer be educationally appropriate.
No Change Necessary
TCAP: Transitional Colorado Assessment Program
Given to all students grades 3 through 10.
Reading, writing, and math assessments are given to all testing grade levels. Science is assessed in grades 5, 8, and 10.
Students in Colorado who qualify for special education take either the TCAP with accommodations, or the TCAP alternate assessment, as outlined in their respective IEPs.
No modified version is available.
IDEA & Testing: Modifying Tests for Special Needs Students
Combined with regulations from USDE
In April, 2007, the U.S. Department of Education authorized the use of modified achievement standards for up to 2 percent of special education students for federal accountability purposes.
The Individuals with Disabilities Act is a law ensuring services to children with disabilities throughout the nation. It governs how states and public agencies provide early intervention, special education and related services to eligible children.
What does modified curriculum look like?
Let one of the beautiful, special minds in my classroom demonstrate:
The IEP team (ARD committee) must consider the participation requirements outlined below.
Standards Based IEP:
Under IDEA, IEP teams (ARD commitees) are required to develop goals based on grade-level academic content standards to ensure that students who participate in alternate assessment based on modified academic achievement standards receive instruction in grade-level content. IEP goals are in place to monitor progress toward meeting grade-level proficiency.
As a result of the recent (2013) amendment to Title I, Part A of NCLB, states are no longer authorized to develop or administer alternate assessments based on
academic achievement standards.
After the 2013-14 school year, STAAR-M will no longer be an option.
Accommodations vs. Modifications
Changes made to instruction and/or assessment intended to help students fully access the general education grade-level curriculum without changing the instructional content.
Accommodations provide equitable instruction and assessment for students by reducing or eliminating the effects of a student's disability.
Alterations made to instruction and/or assessment that change, lower, or reduce learning or assessment expectations.
Modifications change or reduce the learning expectations in regard to the goal being addressed or assessed.
Under IDEA, a state must ensure that all children with disabilities are included in all general state and district-wide assessment programs, with appropriate accommodations and alternate assessments if necessary, as indicated in their respective individualized education programs.
Alternate assessments based on
academic achievement standards will still be allowable for the students who qualify. In Texas, this is STAAR-Alt, and meets requirements outlined in IDEA.
What are they thinking?
According to research funded by USDE, low-achieving students with disabilities made academic progress when provided with appropriate supports and instruction. Special education teachers reported that when IEPs were aligned with academic content standards, students with disabilities had improved exposure to subject matter and received focused instruction to meet challenging goals.
Some of you may be thinking...
So my kids who take STAAR-M will just take the STAAR-Alt now, right?
No. Participation requirements for STAAR-Alt have not changed. Students who take STAAR-M will not take STAAR-Alt simply because STAAR-M is no longer an option.
presented by: Jennifer Lee Worden
In 2013, 64,000 third grade students took the math test state wide. Only 7% did not meet the passing standard.

text: I'm looking at getting an Outcast PAC 900 but am now looking in my packed garage thinking, where the hell am I going to store this? With bikes hanging and garage door opener, there is not enough room to suspend it from the ceiling with a pulley system and pontoons off. Best case would be to take the pontoons off, roll them in a bag and suspend the frame from the ceiling........so question is: How and where do you store your boat? Do you disassemble the whole thing? Is it really bad for the pontoons if I were to deflate them and put them in a bag of some sort to put on shelves? Outcast says no but they also just want to sell a boat. Any input is greatly appreciated.

Her muted images broaden to the natural forests she describes as a "castle" which envelops the physical and psychological interiors that she, her ancestors and extended family have called home. This book is a gem."
