Missouri church to hold Ramadan fast-breaking meal for congregation of burned mosque
JOPLIN, Mo. (AP) - Joplin churches are holding a special ceremony for members of a mosque destroyed in a suspicious fire.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations said Joplin churches planned to gather Wednesday evening at St. Philip's Episcopal Church as a show of support for the Islamic Society of Joplin. They'll be taking part in an "iftar," which is a meal to break a fast during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
The Islamic Society of Joplin's mosque was destroyed in a fire early Monday. Federal officials have been working to determine whether the fire was arson, but said Wednesday it's unclear when they'll know if the fire was set.
CAIR says the groups participating Wednesday night include the South Joplin Christian Church, United Hebrew Congregation, First Community Church and Peace Lutheran Church.
Activist Mexican priest says church wants him to leave migrant shelter, assume parish duties
MEXICO CITY (AP) - A crusading Roman Catholic priest who has defied drug cartels and corrupt police to protect Central American migrants says church authorities are trying to smother his activist work with migrants by assigning him to parish duties.
The Rev. Alejandro Solalinde has become well known in Mexico after enduring death threats for publicly denouncing drug gangs and police who rob and kidnap Central American migrants crossing Mexico to reach the United States.
But Solalinde's diocese said he is simply being asked to start operating within the normal parish structure, and run his migrant shelter more like a church ministry and less like a lone activist's non-governmental organization.
It's the first major public clash between the conservative Mexican church hierarchy and activist priests since the diocese of San Cristobal was told to curtail "Indian" church practices begun by Bishop Samuel Ruiz and hew to accepted doctrine in 2002.
Mosque drive-by shooting follows deadly church attack in central Nigeria, 2 soldiers killed
LAGOS, Nigeria (AP) - A mosque attack that killed two soldiers followed a deadly church attack in central Nigeria, an army official said, adding to insecurity fears that have spread across the West African nation.
Lt. Col. Gabriel Olorunyomi said Wednesday that three gunmen on motorcycles shot dead soldiers on patrol in Okene in Kogi state outside Okene Central Mosque just after Muslim worshippers ended a prayer session.
The assault Tuesday came a day after a church attack in a quiet neighborhood on the outskirts of Okene left 19 Christian worshippers dead.
No group has claimed of responsibility for either attack, but the violence comes as Nigeria struggles with a growing Islamist insurgency known as Boko Haram.
Boko Haram has attacked places of worship in other parts of this nation evenly divided between Muslims and Christians.
The group, whose name means "Western education is sacrilege" in the local Hausa language, is held responsible for more than 660 killings this year alone in Nigeria, according to an Associated Press count. Its demands have included the strict implementation of Islamic Shariah law across Nigeria.
Ultra-Orthodox Jewish men offered blurry glasses look to keep Israeli women out of sight
JERUSALEM (AP) - It's the latest prescription for extreme ultra-Orthodox Jewish men who shun contact with the opposite sex: Glasses that blur their vision, so they don't have to see women they consider to be immodestly dressed.
In an effort to maintain their strictly devout lifestyle, the ultra-Orthodox have separated the sexes on buses, sidewalks and other public spaces in their neighborhoods. Their interpretation of Jewish law forbids contact between men and women who are not married.
Walls in their neighborhoods feature signs exhorting women to wear closed-necked, long-sleeved blouses and long skirts. Extremists have accosted women they consider to have flouted the code.
Now they're trying to keep them out of clear sight altogether.
The ultra-Orthodox community's unofficial "modesty patrols" are selling glasses with special blur-inducing stickers on their lenses. The glasses provide clear vision for up to a few meters so as not to impede movement, but anything beyond that gets blurry - including women. It's not known how many have been sold.
For men forced to venture outside their insular communities, hoods and shields that block peripheral vision are also being offered. The glasses are going for $6.
Vatican will decide next week on fate of pope's butler accused of stealing documents
VATICAN CITY (AP) - The Vatican said it planned to announce its decision Monday on whether to order the pope's butler to stand trial in the theft and leaking of secret documents that have embarrassed the church.
Paolo Gabriele was arrested May 23, so far the only person ensnared in a criminal investigation. He was released under house arrest July 21 pending a decision on whether to indict him.
Gabriele's lawyers have told reporters that Gabriele had fully cooperated with the investigation, and that they would be ready to face a trial in case of an indictment, which they say they expect. They deny that he was part of any conspiracy.
The documents point to corruption and power struggles in the church hierarchy.

Sarah Strohmeyer Answers Reader Questions
The author of this month's book club selection responds to queries on women and money.
Sarah Strohmeyer, author of The Penny Pinchers Club, September's selection for the Alpha Consumer Book Club, is back with answers to reader questions. (For a Q&A with Strohmeyer, see: "Fearing Divorce, Mom Finds Inner Frugalista.")
What are your writing habits? When you're writing about a character who spends a lot of money, do you go out shopping to help inspire you?
Hah! Very funny. Why...yes! (You don't happen to be that nice Mr. Anderson from the IRS perhaps.) Okay, let me put it this way. It's like when my sister-in-law stopped drinking. Her theory was she'd consumed enough alcohol for a lifetime already. For me it's shopping. (Though I've been falling off the wagon lately, I must admit.) I gotta enough bills for eternity. Don't really need the extra research.
What is your next book about?
Oh, I'm so superstitious about stuff like this that I make it a rule not to talk about what I'm working on. Not that I'm worried anyone would steal the idea. (Laugh at it would be more likely.) But once I put it out there it looks so stupid, I just don't try. But thanks for asking.
Do you think women are worse at managing money than men?
Au contraire! If anything, women are naturally better money managers because they often think long term and of others instead of ourselves. (Aren't we perfect.) The problem as Suze Orman might tell you is that women haven't been empowered to think of themselves as money managers. Once we have the skills—balancing a checkbook, understanding interest, penalties, the downsides of credit cards, investing and diversifying—we can rise to the challenge. Of course, there is no such thing as "all women" just like there is no "all men." At the end of the day, we're individuals and for every man who prudently socks away 15% of his paycheck in a tax-free IRA each month, there's another guy blowing a wad at the track.
Do you think it's ever okay to lie to your husband about money, like the character in the book does?
Define lie.
Actually, one of the fun facts I learned in researching the book is that lying about money is a warning sign of marital trouble because of "why" you're lying about money. For example, did you not tell your husband how much the new such and such cost because you two agreed to save a certain amount each month? Did you not feel that this certain amount was fair, that HE set the limits not YOU? Do you feel you do most of the housework while also holding a paying job and, therefore, you deserve an extra treat? If so, then maybe there's some resentment. Or do you fear his reaction because he can erupt in irrational violent angry outbursts? If so, then you've got a REAL problem. There's always a reason for lying and, aside from planning a birthday surprise, it's not a good idea. Then again...it's your money, right?

Assembly Deputy Speaker Earlene Hooper announced today that the 2009-2010 state budget continues her commitment to provide a solid education for local children despite tough economic times by securing $450,000 in additional aid for three local school districts.
Hooper, a passionate advocate for the children of Nassau County, said "In a time of fiscal crisis, it is crucial that we not lose sight of the critical role education plays in our children's future. These vital funds will ensure the Hempstead, Roosevelt and Freeport School Districts have the aid they need and guarantees that no school children fall behind. As promised, I am committed to fighting for our schools, our children and our community."
This vital funding will continue Deputy Speaker Hooper's staunch advocacy for public education and provide local schools with the resources they need to succeed. The Hempstead, Roosevelt and Freeport School Districts will use these funds to maintain a strong commitment to providing a solid education for local children during the worst economic downturn in decades.
Last year, Hooper won a hard-fought battle to provide the Roosevelt School District with more equitable funding. The Assembly bill A.9504, authored and initiated by Hooper, helped the Roosevelt School District gain a firm financial footing, wiped out the district's $8 million accumulated deficit and increased a $6 million grant for academic improvements to $12 million. This funding brought the district in line with other school districts in Nassau County and brought per-pupil spending in the district to county average.
Among the $450,000 in funds, each district will receive:
- Hempstead, $200,000
- Roosevelt, $150,000
- Freeport, $100,000
- Message to the People - Winter 2013
- Working to keep our families safe
- Message to the People - Fall 2013

"Finally a simple way to watch my videos on my HDTV"
on by Robt_LPros Simple to install. must use a video player software (vlc player is free) Plays anything that you can see on your computer screen... in so many words it turns your HDTV into a HD Computer monitor
Cons the signal doesn't go more than 25' It will go through the wall a short distance (15' or so depending on the wall material) It you have a Netbook you won't be able to use it for anything else while your watching your video.
Summary I download a LOT of movies. Unfortunately I had to convert some of them to a format that my Directv Media Share" or my WDTV would be able to stream or play to my 73" HDTV. Now, I don't have to convert/transpose my downloaded media. I play them with VLC Media player, which plays just about any format that you can thorough at it . I play them on my laptop an with the Veebeam HD I can stream what I see on my computer screen to my HDTV and It looks as good. Blue-ray avi's or vobs or any format look and sound great on the TV. and the sound comes through my audio sys.
"Forget about it"
on by krakeltxPros easy to set up
Cons There is a delay between what's on screen and laptop so not usable for surfing. Also, if you interrupt the line of site at all it disconnects
Summary The product is not really usable as advertised. The set up went flawlessly and was the best part of the experience. First, if you use this as a laptop extender there is a huge delay between what is up on the screen and what's on your laptop making it unusable for browsing. The other major issue is that if you interrupt the "line of site" at all it disconnects...you just can't walk between the laptop and the receiver and expect it to work. There are a number of these type devices on the market and i should have looked at reviews on other sites (which clearly point out these issues).
"Not a wireless solution"
on by howellgrPros Software is easy to install
Cons Distance is limited to one room and Veebeam recommends not more than 5 meters (roughly 15ft). I could not establish a connection in direct line of sight over 10 feet.
Is not stable drops in and outSummary For this short distance a cable works better.
"Easiest way to put computer content on the big screen!"
on by robbyheadPros Software installation and setup very easy ... Passed my "setup without looking at the manual" test! ... sends video, audio, pictures & slideshows, Google & Bing maps with various views, Power Point, anything ... one unit works with multiple comput
Cons The USB dongle seems a little flimsy. (but it is a 1st generation unit)
Summary I may want to update this when I've tried it on other TV's with different connections. I can't complain about anything so far. My laptop is way under the specs that VeeBeam set as minimums and it still works well. HD Video is sometimes not as smooth as I would like (1080 & 720) on my laptop but the same content plays perfectly on my wife's which is still a little short of the minimums. One of my friends came to my house over the holidays who has purchased several of the recently released set top boxes and said that he probably would have been satisfied with just the VeeBeam. I'd still like to compare the experience with using a media center PC which I don't have. For now, I'd call this the current "quick & dirty" way to put what's on the computer you already have on your TV. At the very least, your friends will think you're cool!
"Yes, it really does stream your Mac or PC, and well!"
on by notacapuletPros Works consistently well from anywhere in the room. 1080p video streams smoothly - no jerky movement, no audio sync issues, beautiful picture! Audio is clear - no breaks or artifacts. Sounds as if it were connected by wire.
Cons Product is clearly a first generation - updating firmware is very unpolished. Line of sight - generally, I have only broken line of sight by cupping the USB stick with my hand.
Summary This product streams HD video and 5.1 surround wirelessly from your PC or Mac to your home theater system - and it does so very well. The Veebeam company is small, but their passion and support has been incredible. I purchased both the Apple TV (2G, aka the black one) and the Veebeam, to compare my experience. I have returned the Apple TV as my Veebeam experience was far superior - I need my HULU streaming! Also, I use the product to play music from it iTunes collection on my Yamaha receiver without the TV sometimes - so much utility in this product.
You will not be disappointed - I consider myself a tough critic, and I'm pleased. Purchase and enjoy!

How Fermented Foods Can Help You Feel Fit
Fermentation: defined as the process of breaking a substance down into a simpler form, such as converting sugar into carbon dioxide with the help of yeast enzymes. It sounds strange, but fermented foods may not be such a gas. This process can help the body digest certain foods that an individual might have had troubles with before. If you're an athlete who commonly suffers from tummy troubles on race day, this could mean gut glory. Read more →

Wilson: Manchester derby beckons
ESPNSTAR.com columnist Jonathan Wilson previews the upcoming Manchester league derby while also detailing the changes that have taken place since the previous one in April.
By Jonathan Wilson
When Manchester City met Manchester United at the end of April last year, in a game that seemed - and turned out to be - effectively a play-off for the league title, the game was settled by a single goal, a header powered in by Vincent Kompany from a right-wing corner. 1-0, though, didn't really sum up how dominant City had been.
Physically, they had bullied United in midfield; that was where the game was won - and it was won convincingly. What is strange, though, is that having had such an obvious advantage in that regard, City have changed approach.
In part, that was down to the midfield United employed. Michael Carrick, Paul Scholes and Park Ji-Sung, who was making his return after several weeks out with injury and so lacked his usual energy, formed a trio of neat, technically adept but not particularly imposing thirtysomethings. Ryan Giggs and Nani, dropping back form wide positions, didn't really help. Wayne Rooney was used as a lone striker and so couldn't drop deep enough to add his ball-winning capabilities and muscle.
City, meanwhile, had Gareth Barry sitting implacably in front of the back four with Yaya Toure alongside him, charging up and down, imposing himself with his combination of power and finesse. Sir Alex Ferguson's hope, presumably, was that playing an extra man in central midfield would be sufficient to counter the added bulk of City's pair, but with Carlos Tevez dropping deep off Sergio Aguero - doing what Rooney could have done had he played off a front man - and Samir Nasri and David Silva playing quite narrow, City controlled the midfield. The introduction of Nigel De Jong for Tevez midway through the second half only confirmed City's superiority in that area.
De Jong, though, has gone, sold to AC Milan. Barry plods on, unspectacularly efficient as ever, but Toure has looked out of sorts this season. In form, he is a phenomenon, blessed with extraordinary stamina and strength, but also a fine technical player with both great drive and intelligence. He hasn't been awful this season, far from it, and at times he has dragged City forward, but like most of the side, he is not quite in top form.
City will, though, presumably employ the same 4-2-3-1 they did in April. They have often used that same front six this season - although there is the possibility Edin Dzeko could start - but the shape has been far more of a 4-4-2; given how well the shape worked then, there seems little reason to change.
Then again, there seemed little reason to change anything at City last year; with by far the best squad, they were by far the best side. Roberto Mancini, though, seems determined to shift to a game based more on possession than power, an experiment of which it's perhaps kindest to say that it's still in its transitional phase.
De Jong's departure is perhaps the most obvious manifestation of the change of approach, but Mancini has also broken up the centre-back pairing of Kompany and Joleon Lescott, seemingly because Matija Nastasic is better in possession. The dabbles with a back three, similarly, seem an attempt to hold the ball better.
To an extent it's working; City's possession has gone up from 58.2% per game to 59.3% and their pass completion rate from 85.9% to 86.4%. But there has been a cost - Kompany, a superb defender and an eloquent leader, has not been at his best.
From set plays in particular, City look vulnerable - which is of particular concern given that United have already scored 10 times from set pieces in the league this season, more than any other side.
City may still be unbeaten in the league, but much of that has been down to individuals suddenly producing moments of great quality rather than any great coherence of team play, something that, along with the defensive shortcomings, has been exposed in the Champions League.
And this is a different United that City will face, if only because the presence in the squad of Robin van Persie allows Rooney to play deeper so he can go back into midfield and forage for the ball if required. With Tom Cleverley suffering a calf injury, it may be that United are forced again to play Scholes and Carrick at the back of midfield but at least they have his aggression and energy unsettling Barry and preventing him setting City's tempo.
Yet United, of course, have been just as unconvincing as City. They've gone behind an astonishing 14 times this season and, while comebacks were a thrilling feature of the treble in 1998-99, the concession of early goals is hardly an advisable policy; even that side were eventually caught up by the habit in the 3-2 home defeat (after a goalless draw in the first leg) to Real Madrid in the Champions League quarter-final.
Ferguson has described United's defending this season as being a "cartoon cavalcade" (apparently a reference to Sunday afternoon Scottish television from many years ago) as they continue to miss the calming solidity of Nemanja Vidic and neither David De Gea nor Anders Lindegaard convinces enough to secure the goalkeeper's shirt on a permanent basis.
And that's what makes this derby so fascinating.
United are three points clear at the top of the table (although City are three points better off than United in comparison with equivalent fixtures from last season), and there is a seven-point gap from City to Chelsea in third, but neither team has really convinced this season. Either could suddenly click into a run that effectively has the title won by March, or both could falter and fall back into the back.
These are two teams fumbling around for form, not far from it, and still better than most of the sides around them, but neither are firing yet.

New York, NY - Screenvision has partnered with Universal Motown Records to present the national premiere of Stevie Wonder's concert, Live at Last, on March 4, 2009. Part of Motown's 50th Anniversary celebration, the concert, which was filmed in October 2008 at the London O2 Arena, marked Wonder's first performance in Europe in over a decade and was filmed during his "Wonder Summer Nights" tour.
Screenvision's alternative programming division will make the concert available through its exhibitor partners in 10 top DMAs across the country including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Dallas, Boston, Washington D.C., Detroit, Seattle and Denver.
"We are committed to creating additional revenue streams for our exhibitor partners and through the right and most compelling alternative content we are able to bring new audiences into theaters in creative and innovative ways," said Darryl Schaffer, executive vice president, exhibitor relations for Screenvision. "Live at Last provides the type of exciting and quality entertainment that will resonate with theater goers on a national basis and we look forward to working with Universal and our partners to promote it."
The alternative programming division was launched in 2007 to enable exhibitors to attract additional audiences during off-peak movie timeframes. Screenvision's presentation of the La Scala opera series, UltraMarathon Man: 50 Marathons • 50 States • 50 Days, Ballet Shoes, its partnership with the New York Mets for "Mets at the Movies," the Phillies' World Series film with Major League Baseball, the Boston Celtics championship season documentary, Return to the Rafters, and MSNBC's coverage of President Obama's Inauguration are examples of previous successes.
"We are thrilled to partner with Screenvision to bring Stevie Wonder's first filmed concert to cinemas across the U.S," said Sylvia Rhone, President of Universal Motown Records. "Stevie is a cultural icon who represents a brilliant musical legacy and the deepest roots of Motown. A Stevie Wonder show is not merely a concert, but a major event from a consummate performer. Screenvision, with its extensive theater network, is providing a fantastic opportunity for us to bring Stevie's timeless music to new audiences throughout the country."
The set list traces a lifetime of innovation and achievement and features iconic hits including "Signed, Sealed, Delivered," "My Cherie Amour," and "You Are the Sunshine of My Life." The concert also includes other classic hits that redefined pop and R&B music including "Superstition," "Higher Ground," and "Living in the City." Highlights of the concert include a 14 piece band as well as Wonder's daughter Aisha Wonder on backing vocals.
LOS ANGELES - Zack Snyder will receive the ShoWest 2009 Director of the Year Award, it was announced today by Mitch Neuhauser, co-managing director of the event, which will be held March 30-April 2, 2009, in Las Vegas. Snyder will be presented with the ShoWest Director of the Year Award at ShoWest's Final Night Banquet and Award Ceremony on Thursday, April 2nd, at Bally's and Paris Las Vegas.
"Since breaking onto the scene in 2004 with the box office hit Dawn of the Dead, Zack Snyder has developed a bold, distinctive moviemaking style that has received critical acclaim and has generated box office success around the world," said Neuhauser. "His continued dedication to providing audiences with groundbreaking films is unparalleled and we could not be more thrilled to honor Zack Snyder as the ShoWest 2009 Director of the Year."
Snyder's most recent project is set for release on March 6. Watchmen is the highly anticipated, multi-layered mystery adventure, based on the award-winning graphic novel. A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure, the film is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the Doomsday Clock - which charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union - is set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion - a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers - Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity...but who is watching the Watchmen?
Snyder made his feature film directorial debut with the 2004 horror thriller Dawn of the Dead, which topped the box office on its opening weekend. The film brought Snyder widespread acclaim from critics and audiences and was nominated for the Camera d'Or Prize at the 2004 Cannes Film Festival. Snyder followed up this success with the Warner Bros. 2007 worldwide blockbuster 300. Snyder is the co-president of Cruel and Unusual Films, formed with his wife and producing partner Deborah Snyder. In addition to Watchmen, Cruel and Unusual films projects include the drama The Last Photograph, the fantasy-adventure Sucker Punch, and the animated 3D film The Guardians of Ga'Hoole.Other films in development include a feature film adaptation of Ray Bradbury's classic The Illustrated Man, the zombie film Army of the Dead and the apocalyptic thriller Cobalt 60.

Let me try to articulate my point better. If Drew left at some point in time, whether of his own choosing or someone else's, obviously he'd be replaced as coach at Baylor. Certainly, they could have some success at Baylor as the program is in the best shape it's EVER been in. What bugs me about this topic is the sentiment that there are a number of high quality coaches that would a) want to come to Baylor and b) take the program to the "next level." I just honestly don't believe that to be the case.
We hit a HOME RUN with Scott Drew 10 years ago. I don't think there has been anyone in modern history of college basketball who's inherited a worse situation than he did when he got here. Murder, scandal, losing half a season, probation, etc. He held try-outs his first year just to field a complete team! Here we are 10 years later, 3 trips to the NCAA's, 2 Elite Eights and putting guys in the NBA every year.
I know all of us who love Baylor want us to succeed at the highest levels. We've had some success there, but we've also fallen short at times. The list is short and filled with Elite coaches who have taken teams to 2 Elite Eights in three years. It's much shorter when you look at the years since guys started going pro after 1 year. I'm not claiming that Drew is Coach K or Boeheim or Williams or Self even, but he's had an awful lot of success for someone who some on here claim is a terrible coach. I want us to be more consistent just like everyone else does, but 5 years ago we made the big dance for the second time in 50 years. I remember when I was in school we made the NIT and thought that was the best thing ever. Our program is continuing to improve every year. Hell, we've reached the point where when we miss the tourney we have people who want to get rid of the coach.
Baylor is a very unique school, as we all know, unlike almost any other major institution in the country. As a Baptist University, our pool of coaches is already smaller than everyone else's out. It's always possible that there is someone out there who could come in and take the program higher than it's currently at, but I'm of the opinion that that guy is already in Waco and I hope he's there for a long time.

I love that the men's bball staff proclaims Christ boldly. Nothing but a plus in my book. I appreciate the different personalities like Mulkey and Briles who are more private about their Christian convictions. But if a coach wants to be outspoken for Christ- Baylor is a good fit for them.

I joined the NRA a couple weeks ago. I was one of 100,000 to join.
Please urge anyone you know to join. They are our strongest advocates for our 2nd amendment right. http://www.politico.com/story/2013/0...ook-86001.html

WOW that is awesome to hear. I am a NRA life time member and am glad to see three or four more from Michigan join the fight.
I also encourage you to look at Gun Owners of America, they send you links to send emails to congress about your views of gun related issues. |

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I was a student at Lincoln for five years and am now in middle school i absolutely love this school, it gives you the option to have Montessori and traditional. i love all the teachers, but the principal im not fond, of neither are like 84 percent of parents (my closest guess) but overall this school is amazing. it has extra curricular activities and some many fun things to do. it has a field for sports swings and a playground plenty of room for all the kids. it might be intimedating for little kids to go into that school because of the older kids but i have NEVER seen out of the five years i have been there see a older kid bully a little kid. you only see a little name calling here and there no bullying. i HIGHLY recommend lincoln to anyone.
Our oldest child has been in the Montessorri program at Lincoln for five years and we are very satisfied with the program. Our younger child has started this year as well. We're not too fond of the current Principal , but we really liked the two previous ones. Overall, we love this school!
I wanted to also comment on the response about student/parents not being happy. I've seen Lincoln with two principles now and have been very happy with both. I was worried when we were getting a new principle when Janice Spearman went on however, I will tell you that she really brings light to that school. She's taken the time to have meetings with me spur of the moment about my son. She's shown a real interest in his education, it's amazing how far along he's come just this year alone! I can't even imagine how challenging it is to be a teacher or a principle this day in age, especially at a public school. I feel very lucky to have gotten my little man into this school. Thank you to the staff and a special thanks to Ms. Erin and Ms. Spearman!
I would like to respond to the comment about teachers and students being "unhappy" at Lincoln under the new leadership of Janice Spearman. Unfortunately, this parent is mis-informed. The staff members at Lincoln are very happy with our principal and appreciate her support in anything that we do here. Lincoln is a unique school in that we have both the Montessori program and a traditional program. Both programs work very well with each other. We are ONE staff with high expectations for all students, no matter what program the student is enrolled in. Janice supports both programs equally. What may turn some parents off is the fact that Ms. Spearman also has high expectations for parents. She holds them accountable along with her staff and our students. Lincoln is still a "Distinguised" school as we have been over the past four years. The teachers work very hard at Lincoln to ensure success for all students and we do this under the wonderful leadership of Ms. Spearman along with the other amazing principals we have been blessed to have over the past five years. Please do not ever get the impression that teachers and students are unhappay at Lincoln based on one opinion.
I would agree with other reviews in that the montessori program is favored in the school and supported by the parent population. But, I found that the traditional program has higher expectations for my child, provides them with technology, and has more diversity in the classroom. I have had my child in both the traditional and montessori programs and overall Lincoln is an excellent school.
My children have gone to Lincoln for 5 years now and I have watched it go through many changes over the years. At the time, it had a top rating of 10 through greatschools.com and truly was one of the best in the district. The school has been through 3 Principals in those 5 years and has suffered from a lack of leadership. I have decided to leave a comment based on many common parent complaints about Janice Spearman, the current Principal. The teachers aren't happy, the parent community is unhappy and the children are unhappy. There are high quality teachers there but is obvious they are not being supported and are getting burnt out! The Parent Community is the only reason why the school is surviving. Although we are deciding to move our children to a different school, I really hope for the school improves for all of the parents that decide to stick it out. It's sad to see what was once a wonderful school suffer.
my child has been in Lincoln for 3 years and has not improved on bit. They only help the montessori program and forget about the traditonal kids.
Lincoln is a great school. It's relatively small, has strong parent involvement, and caring teachers and staff. Both Montessori and traditional tracks have multi-age classrooms, and it has a small community feel.
Lincoln is an excellent school. My child is entering her 2nd year and I can't imagine a better school. They have many after school programs that are both fun and affordable. It is like a small community, the older kids know the younger kids and it's a very comfortably homey environment.
This school has small classes. The playground has recently been renovated. There recently has been a Love and Logic seminar at the school and a visit from Mayor Hickenlooper. Parent involvement is encouraged. The Kaleidascope program offers most of the extracurricular activities.

App-titude: What the heck is a Ruzzle?
This game of words is suddenly tearing it up after nine months on the market. Mag Interactive

- Kim Dotcom's Mega hosts controversial software for movie piracy site Popcorn Time
- In tech we trust? Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg step in for the government

It's time to get our Friday on! We bring you, App-titude, our weekly look at a highlight from the app ecosystem. Sometimes the trends reveal themselves to us slowly after we pore over piles of data, and then other times the anomaly is readily app-arent.
(Disclaimer: We don't ever actually cull through data for hours, unless you count Twitter-streams, and we love unnecessarily hyphenating words that include "app.")
This week we learned a new word. "Ruzzle," is a words game app which, by gaining over 800,000 users this week, became the No. 3 most downloaded app on iPhone, according to Appdata.
Over a stretch of three two-minute rounds Ruzzle lets two competitors anywhere mobile devices can function, duke it out over the same 16 letters placed in four rows of four. Like Scrabble, forming words wins points based on the value of the letters used.
The app formerly known as Rumble, that today reached 10 million downloads according to its Twitter account, was released in March of 2012 and was the first independent product by Mag Interactive, a development team based in Stockholm, Sweden that for eight years prior to the release had only worked for other companies.
Back in April when the game had a mere 1 million downloads the company's chief executive, Roger Skagerwall had a cup of coffee with Scandinavian computer and gaming blog, MCVNordic, and told them that even back then they were profitable, but that they wanted to expand to new markets other than Sweden, Norway, Denmark and Holland.
No problem there.
Based on numbers posted to the company's Twitter account, the app available for both iOS and Android products, has jumped by 3 million players since December 21. It's strange that a company should see such a huge jump in numbers so long after its launch. Usually successful apps explode out of the gate and then rather quickly begin their slow demise into obscurity.

Highland Campgrounds
[ 3/10 ]
Following directions in the Trailer Life Directory left us lost. A phone call advised us one of their campground signs was missing causing us to miss a turn. This is all on very narrow, hilly back roads and now we needed to turn around, to get on the correct dirt access road and find the campground. Registered (see below) and then down a narrow steep dirt/gravel road that was less then fun; although backing into our site was a snap. Most all sites are in heavy wooded areas with little to no natural light. Had to use our trailer lights during the day. All services are back up this steep dirt/gravel access road including the pool, rest rooms, showers, laundry (1 washer/dryer) and garbage site. The garbage site had stuff all around and not a clean or attractive area. Trailer Life says this is a Good Sam park, but no signs posted either on the road or in the office area that I saw. Did not receive an itemized copy of my registration. Will not stay here again.
