Basketball is a team sport. And so is homebuilding — usually. But when Pat Dixon, the strength and conditioning coach for the St. John's University men's and women's basketball teams, needed to rebuild his home after Hurricane Sandy ruined it, he worked alone. And where his one-story brick bungalow once stood, Dixon now has a two-story, four-bedroom, two-bath house.
Dixon registered with the city of Long Beach, New York, as a contractor, reports The New York Times, but decided the insurance cost of hiring help would break his budget ("What Hurricane Sandy Destroyed, a Man Rebuilds by Hand," by Corey Kilgannon). So on his own, Dixon started by tearing down the ruined bungalow. "I personally watched him," Scott Kemins, the building commissioner for the City of Long Beach, told the Times. "He took his old house down piece by piece with his bare hands; every time I drove by, another part was down."
"He relied on outside help only for tasks for which the city required a licensed contractor, primarily the foundation, electrical wiring and plumbing," the Times reports. "Other than that, he did the rest himself, he said — 'every board, every nail' — including putting up the frame of the house and erecting the roof, which is 35 feet off the ground. He put in wooden staircases, insulation, doors and windows, Sheetrock and a security system. He is finishing the plastering and painting."
Says Dixon: ""It was the defining moment of my life — getting punched hard in the face and choosing to get back up and fight. You're faced with a massive problem, and you can either stick your head in the sand or grab a hammer and get started."

Durbin removes FB post after White House miscue
CHICAGO (AP) - U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin has removed a Facebook post that erroneously claimed a GOP leader had told the president, "I can't even stand to look at you."
Durbin said Monday he's satisfied that that people now know he's not to blame for the mistake.
The decision resolves a point of tension between the White House and one of President Barack Obama's most loyal defenders. The White House acknowledges the error stemmed from a "miscommunication."
Durbin, an Illinois Democrat, was not at the meeting where the statement in question would have been made. He says his source was a White House staffer who briefed him.
The post drew rebukes from Republicans who said no such statement was made.
IL Senator Durbin wants energy drinks to stop marketing to kids
The Democratic senator from Illinois sent a letter Monday to the CEOs of Red Bull, Rockstar and Monster asking for an explanation for the companies' sponsorship of sporting events that target children.
Durbin says the companies have often claimed they do not market their drinks to youngsters. But he says he is aware of multiple situations that contradict their claims.
Durbin cites several examples in his letter, including a high school football tournament and a motorcycle race for children as young as thirteen endorsed by Red Bull.
Durbin says his letter stems out of growing concerns during the past year about the potential health risks posed by energy drinks.

As a teen in San Antonio, Texas, Miller volunteered with the Student Conservation Association, a nonprofit that "gives you a taste of the National Park Service and U.S. Forest Service," he says. Through the association, Miller spent six weeks as a volunteer on the Continental Divide National Scenic Trail in Colorado.
"In college, I worked for the Forest Service, first fighting fires, but there was too much sitting around waiting for fires, so I moved to the trail crew," he explains. After graduation, Miller interned as a trail-crew leader for the Appalachian Trail in Maine and briefly worked for Delta Airlines.
From there, he moved up to part-time, temporary Park Service work, first at Big Bend National Park in Texas, then at Rocky Mountain National Park in Colorado. To make extra money, he worked on historic-cabin preservation during the off-season. "There is a downside to this outdoor life," notes Miller. "It takes a long time to score a full-time, permanent position."
Eventually, however, he nabbed the Smokies job. Miller's parents were living in Atlanta by then, so the post was near perfect. "This is my first Eastern park and first permanent job," he reveals.
Trail maintenance is Miller's top priority, despite budget constraints. "Trails always seem the easiest place to cut money," he says. "Other maintenance tasks can't be ignored: You have to clean bathrooms."
But a new funding initiative -- Smokies Trails Forever -- has spurred trail-maintenance projects in the park (see "Outdoors: Trails Forever," April 8 Xpress). "Right now, we have a great volunteer crew on Forney Creek Trail," Miller reports, though they initially needed some educating about the realities of trail work. "When we first started this program, some people brought their small children with them."
Miller also deals with a variety of trail users, including bloggers who complain, "I don't walk at Cataloochee because of the horse s**t." But the chief ranger's response was: "These trails are in the backcountry. They're supposed to be primitive." As he also points out, while hikers may not be a particularly vocal group, horse enthusiasts seem to be outspoken, well-organized and well-connected when it comes to their favorite trails.
All told, the park now has almost 800 miles of maintained, public trails. Can Miller envision adding new ones? "No. We don't have the resources to maintain and patrol the trails we have."
Besides, his duties don't stop there.
For those who wish to visit cemeteries where their ancestors are buried, the Park Service provides free boat transportation across Fontana Lake and a ride as close as vehicles can get. The ones on North Shore Road and in Cataloochee are the most visited, says Miller, but his crew doesn't play favorites. "We maintain all cemeteries at the same level even if no one goes to them. If you miss cleaning up a cemetery, there's hell to pay," he notes.
But since Miller works where others play, what does he do for fun? In fact, he says, he gets to spend a mere 25 percent of his work time outdoors, due to shrinking budgets that put more administrative tasks on his plate.
Nonetheless, says Miller, "I want to pass on my love of the outdoors to my boys." Combining work and play, he adds, "We've adopted the Richland Balsam Trail off the Blue Ridge Parkway: We go out and talk about animals and plants as I clear the trail." He also finds time to mountain bike. And then there's a little project close to home in Sylva: the 1,100-acre Pinnacle Park, owned by the town but managed under a conservation easement by the Land Trust for the Little Tennessee.
"I'm helping them develop a trail system and campsites," says Miller, adding, "I never get bored."

(April 2014)
Against the backdrop of Arthur Schnitzlers drama "La Ronde", the creators of this ballet (choreographer Ashley Page and designer Antony McDonald) evoke the almost explosive creativity which characterised Vienna in the years between 1900 and 1914. Based on real personalities, this ballet brings both the light and the dark sides of this period to the stage, portraying individual characters and shedding light on the relationships between them. Compositions which arose from this extraordinarily ric h artistic period provide the musical basis for the ballet.
Der Wildschütz

"Der Wildschütz", first performed in 1842 and based on August von Kotzebue's comedy "The Roebuck" (Der Rehbock), is one of the most popular works

But there are no maidens who meet their requirements, and so the title is given to Albert Herring, the greengrocer's son. However, it only becomes apparent after his crowning as MayKing that his virtuousness is rather more due to a lack of opportunity.

Die Fledermaus
by Johann Strauß (September 2013)

Did Beethoven choose the ideal of faithful love between man and wife as a lifeline after the political utopias of his time had given rise to a terrible reality?
Ein Walzertraum
by Oscar Straus (October 2013)
In Vienna, Helena, Princess of the German principality of Flausenthurn, catches the dashing Lieutenant Niki and then marries him so quickly that the newly fledged Prince Consort takes fright. Even during the wedding celebrations, he slips away secretly and mixes with the people of Flausenthurn. He meets the attractive conductor of a Vienna ladies' choir, Franzi Steingruber, who seems to be the embodiment of all the dreams he thought were lost for ever.

Frau Luna
by Paul Lincke (September 2013)
In Paul Lincke's Berlin operetta, three young men from Berlin - Steppke, Lämmermeier and Pannecke - travel to the moon in a "moonship". Frau Luna, the Lady of the Moon, is delighted to see them. At last something is happening in her boring realm - the last visitor was the earth-émigré Theophil, years ago. Back in Berlin, Theophil is missed by Frau Pusebach, who happens to have come along on the present trip to the moon. Frau Luna is interested in Steppke, but that does not please her long-termadmirer Prince Sternschnuppe. Earth and Moon suddenly get dangerously close - in matters of feeling and in other ways too ...
With English surtitles
by Richard Strauss (September 2013)
The theatre censor forbade Gustav Mahler from including "Salome" in the Hofoper programme. The first Viennese production of the work therefore took place in 1910 at the Volksoper, where the opera now
returns 101 years later. At that time "Salome", which was based on Oscar Wilde's play, offended
ideas of "morality". Today, the third opera by the Bavarian master composer is regarded as an epochal masterpiece of music theatre.
Premiere by Richard Strauss (June 2014)
The mayor's daughter Diemut has rebuffed Kunrad's advances. In revenge, Kunrad puts out all the fires in the city; they can only be relit by a hot-blooded maiden. Diemut's night of passion with Kunrad (masterfully
described by the orchestra) brings light back to the city. Richard Strauss' second musical work for the theatre has already appeared twice at the Volksoper (in 1912 and 1964) and this third production is a concert performance.

Wagners RING an einem Abend
by Richard Wagner (October 2013)
The German magazine "Der Spiegel" paid tribute to the humourist Vicco von Bülow, a.k.a. Loriot, who died in summer 2011, as "the greatest German artist of the present time". The most important work by Germanys greatest opera composer, the "Ring" tetralogy by Richard Wagner, was provided with connecting texts by Loriot and condensed into an entertaining evening concert performance.
Blaubarts Geheimnis
by Stephan Thoss (November 2013)
The notorious figure of the wife-murdering knight Bluebeard stands at the centre of the ballet by Stephan Thoss. Using music by Henryk Górecki and Philip Glass, the choreographer explores different motifs in the fairy tale and discovers hidden secrets of Bluebeard the man. The story of Judith and Bluebeard is preceded in the first part of the evening by scenes depicting different aspects of the relationship between men and women.
Sweeney Todd
Premiere by Stephen Sondheim (September 2013)
After many years of exile, the barber Sweeney Todd returns to his home town of London, in order to take bloody revenge on his tormentor, Judge Turpin. When Turpin escapes him, Todd in his rage becomes a mass murderer, slitting his customers' throats. His accomplice, the pie maker Mrs. Lovett, makes meat pies out of his victims. The multi-award winning "musical thriller" by Stephen Sondheim, first performed in 1978, was made into a film starring Johnny Depp in 2007.

Die spinnen, die Römer!
by Stephen Sondheim (April 2014)
The first Broadway show for which Stephen Sondheim wrote music and lyrics in 1962 was a sensational success: "A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum". The main role was taken (as in the Hollywood film of 1966) by Zero Mostel. Sondheim's most frequently performed work is now being
produced for the first time at the Volksoper, with Robert Meyer and Sigrid Hauser as the slave
Pseudolus, who moves heaven and hell to gain his freedom.

Die Zauberflöte
by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (September 2013)
Mozart's penultimate opera, and a fairy-tale work that remains popular with young and old alike. The prince Tamino, with the aid of a magic flute and the bird catcher Papageno as his guide, finds the Temple of Isis where Pamina, the woman he loves but has never met, resides. Pamina, daughter of the Queen of the Night, together with Tamino, undergo tests to prove their virtue and constancy and good triumphs over evil through the power of love.
Die Hochzeit des Figaro
by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (September 2013)
In 1785, Mozart and his librettist Da Ponte turned to a revolutionary French play: Beaumarchais's comedy "The Mad Day". The manservant Figaro and his master, Count Almaviva, become opponents when Almaviva starts pursuing Figaro's intended bride. The explosive conflict between the nobility and the middle class is played out in the private sphere - as a struggle between the frivolous arrogance of the master and the honest feeling of the servant. "The Marriage of Figaro" has thus become a timelessmasterpiece.

I too think #3 is correct. All along the way, starting now, states need to pin this whole mess on the FEDS and Obama - both in practice and rhetorically every day, constantly. Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.
States have another incentive to refrain from setting up exchanges under the health-care law: It protects companies and individuals in the state from tax increases. The law introduces penalties of as much as $3,000 per employee for firms that don´t provide insurance -- but only if an employee is getting coverage with the help of a tax credit. No state exchanges means no tax credits and thus no employer penalties. The law also notoriously penalizes many people for not buying insurance. In some cases, being eligible for a tax credit and still not buying insurance subjects you to the penalty. So, again, no state exchange means no tax credit and thus fewer people hit by the penalty.The administration´s response to the impending failure of its signature legislation -- a failure resulting entirely from its flawed design -- has been to ignore the inconvenient portion of the law. In May, the Internal Revenue Service decided it would issue tax credits to people who get insurance from exchanges established by the federal government. It has thus exposed firms and individuals to taxes and penalties without any legal authorization. Obviously, that situation sets the stage for lawsuits.Bloomberg NewsOctober 1, 2012The Flaws That Will Bring Down Obama´sHealth-Care PlanRamesh Ponnuruhttp://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-10-01/the-flaws-that-will-bring-down-obama-s-health-care-plan.htmlAlso read Michael Cannon´s article:Obamacare Is Still Vulnerablehttp://www.nationalreview.com/articles/333040/obamacare-still-vulnerable-michael-f-cannon Click Here if you Like this Comment 1 person like this.

You are not making this any better.Brownie said:All I'm sayin is that the wife claims they taste better after Mangrates...The Cen-Tex Smoker said:Are those pork chop titties?????? That is disturbing. I need to wash my eyes out with bleach.Brownie said:Judging by the sear marks, I bet it's this guy....
Hokie, mind if I print off a few dozen copies of this? I think it would be fun to slip them under some wiper blades in the Wal-Mart parking lot. :D Sounds like something I'd say to Roblox Studios http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=54958747 Hokie_Smoker said:The following are simply some random thoughts that have been rattling about my head of late and that I'd like to let out -- a little house cleaning, if you will. One of the first facts we should face is that Mangrate is an opportunist. That is, it is an ideological chameleon, without any real morality, without a soul. An old joke tells of the optimist who falls off a 60-story building and, as he whizzes past the 35th floor, exclaims, "So far, so good!" But it is not such blind optimism that causes Mangrate's coadjutors to think that they can promote mediocrity over merit. Mangrate embraces conformism with open arms. And if that seems like a modest claim, I disagree. It's the most radical claim of all.
I use such language purposefully -- and somewhat sardonically -- to illustrate how Mangrate keeps trying to legitimize the fear and hatred of the privileged for the oppressed. And if we don't remain eternally vigilant, it will really succeed. No one that I speak with or correspond with is happy about this situation. Of course, I don't speak or correspond with quasi-devious, jaded rotters, Mangrate's deputies, or anyone else who fails to realize that Mangrate's prevarications are not an abstract problem. They have very concrete, immediate, and unpleasant consequences. For instance, solecism is not merely an attack on our moral fiber. It is also a politically motivated attack on knowledge. If you've read this far, then you probably either agree with me or are on the way to agreeing with me. Call me a cynic, but it is singularly apt that I haven't the foggiest idea why Mangrate wants to rally for a cause that is completely void of moral, ethical, or legal validity. The mere mention of that fact guarantees that this letter will never get published in any mass-circulation periodical that Mangrate has any control over. But that's inconsequential, because only the impartial and unimpassioned mind will even consider that the picture I am presenting need not be confined to Mangrate's manifestos. It applies to everything it says and does.
What a cunning coup on the part of Mangrate's slaves, who set out to overthrow democratic political systems and got as far as they did without anyone raising an eyebrow. Mangrate does, occasionally, make a valid point. But when it says that it is not only acceptable, but indeed desirable, to commit confrontational, in-your-face acts of violence, intimidation, and incivility, that's where the facts end and the ludicrousness begins. Mangrate loves getting up in front of people and telling them that it is the ultimate authority on what's right and what's wrong. It then boasts about how it'll impose ideology, control thought, and punish virtually any behavior it disapproves of one day. It's all part of the media spectacle that is Mangrate. Of course, it soaks it up and wallows in it like a pig in mud. Speaking of pigs and mud, Mangrate's worshippers claim to have no choice but to remove society's moral barriers and allow perversion to prosper. I wish there were some way to help these miserable, dim-witted dunderheads. They are outcasts, lost in a world they didn't make and don't understand. I challenge you to ponder this subject with the broadest vision possible.

Change Finder sizes between Base 10 and Base 2
I skimmed the source code, but ... well ... can someone with a better foundation in Foundation explain how it works? TiA.
Change Finder sizes between Base 10 and Base 2
Basically it reads the copy of the foundation framework on your disk and looks for certain patterns, and then replaces a couple of carefully selected bytes. As to what exactly those bytes do, I'm actually not sure, though I'd sure be interested to know. They don't seem to be anything obvious like a divisor.
Change Finder sizes between Base 10 and Base 2
thanks. i read it again and ... i am still all "eek!"
i'm not gonna run this program, but i'm curious: does it take forever to run? it loops over every byte of a 10+ MB file (on my MBP). (and for (i = 1; i < (fileLen - 160); i++) { while (i < (fileLen - 160) && ... ) i++; if (i >= (fileLen - 160)) break; ... }is a mess. just sayin'!)
Change Finder sizes between Base 10 and Base 2
On a modern computer, looping over that many bytes doesn't take very long, especially when all you do at each one is to check and see if it matches one of four pre-defined values. If you think about it, it's actually only reading from each offset once (although I admit, I kinda thought it was going to double over the first time I read the code). It takes about a half a second to run the patch on my MacBook (which is ~4yrs old). (I modified the code so that it edits a _copy_ of the foundation framework that I made elsewhere so that I don't need to have it run rooted. makes me feel a little safer somehow, even though I know the difference is probably negligible.)

I have reinstalled iTunes about four times.
I have tried pwnage tools pwned dfu, I have tried redsn0w's dfu
Tinyumbella log also shows DFU device connected/disconnected when I connect/disconnect it.
Now my iPhone is in DFU Mode and I can't even get it out, with the 'home button + power button' press for 15seconds.
When I look into System Profiler it shows up as an iPhone in DFU mode, but I can't leave the dfu mode.
When I start TinyUmbrella it doesn't show up in the device list (But shows up as a connected DFU Device in the log).
It's possible to start the phone if I do it through redsn0w's tethered boot feature.
I have the shsh for 5.1.1 sasved in Tinyumbrella, maybe this could help.
And yeah, I did not use an usb hub, I switched three different cables and I used all of the two usb ports on my mac.
Any help would be appreciated !!!
All the information I found through google did not help me, that's why I am posting it here. Maybe someone of you can help me.Last edited by shitake83; 10-15-2012 at 05:43 AM.

Don't use Tiny Umbrella to help verify your blob. What you need is Redsn0w 0.9.15b1, stock 5.1.1 fw and 5.1.1 blob.
Run redsn0w , extra, even more and select restore button. When ask whether to preserve bb says yes to preserve, as for blob verification, you can choose local or remote ( if saved in Cydia Server )
Redsn0w can downgrade / upgrade / restore to same fw without the need to run itunes.
You need to jailbreak after the restore, your iphone will be at 5.1.1 and preserved bb of 05.13.xx
The Following User Says Thank You to iYeow For This Useful Post:

Thank you so much iYeow, this resolved the problem. Thanks for pointing out this way of restoring, since I have never heard of it before.
This process should be on a list of possible restore possibilities. I tried almost everything to my knowledge and nothing worked but this.
Thanks a lot.

You are welcome
Hi, I can't restore my ipod from itunes too, so I tried with Redsn0w 0.9.15b1 like you said. The problem is that after connecting my ipod in dfu mode and selecting my fireware (5.1.1) with the redsnow, the restore proces starts, my ipod reboots but then the following message appears; "exploid failed"
PLEASE HELP: This seems so straight forward and even I understand it. But each time Redsn0w 0.9.15b2 completes building the Restore Image for my 3Gs 4.1. 05.16.05 it Comes back with Notice: 'Couldn't restore' !Found device in DFU mode instead of Recovery mode' . There is NO Notice during the process to put the device into Recovery mode. What am I doing wrong. I've spend days on this thing... Many thanks for any advice.

- Subjects:Reading, Classroom Management, Teacher Tips and Strategies
Covering Greek mythology can be very confusing. For one thing, the family tree for the Greek gods makes the family situations on Jerry Springer and The Maury Show look normal and tame. Mythology is not my strong suit, and the end of the year is not necessarily the time to cover topics that you are not completely confident with. So when I stumbled across a Greek mythology readers theater book, I was ecstatic. Read on to find out how to incorporate this activity into your classroom.
Photo: One student made a cake for the "God and Goddess Bake Off" play. This was a great way to celebrate the day!
To introduce the Greek gods, I show my students a BrainPop video. BrainPop is a great Web site that offers high-quality information in a fun, efficient way. Though the site is not free, a subscription is well worth it. We then, as a class, compose a family tree from a student-friendly Web site that describes the gods and goddesses.
The next step is to read the first play in Greek Myth Plays, which introduces all of the gods and goddesses, again, in a fun and easy-to-read way. We discuss brain-friendly ways that this play could be executed and techniques that would assist students in remembering the attribute of each god. The brain-friendly ideas include wearing name tags, dressing in a memorable way, carrying a memorable prop, or talking in a way that coincides with the god's attribute. For example, Poseidon (god of the sea) would wear blue, have wet hair, and carry a glass of water.
After we read the play, I choose half of the class to work on acting it out. The remaining half of the class will act out another play from the book.
The readers theater plays in my class run a five day course. In general, it goes something like this:
Monday Students are given the script. They read the script independently, look up a few vocabulary words, and write a brief summary of the play. A director is chosen to direct each play. They are given a list of students who are in the play and assign roles.
The director is a highly sought-after position, but it is not an easy one. Many disagreements can occur in the production process and the director must be able to keep the group moving forward. This position is great for students you would like to help develop leadership skills.
Tuesday The director tells the students their roles. They do a read-through and generate ideas for staging, props, costumes, music, and backdrops. The director will finalize the vision in his/her mind, assign extra tasks, and ask me for certain supplies, props, or music.
Wednesday Students begin to bring in their supplies or props from home. They rehearse a few times. At the end of the day, the director spends time going over "gems and ops," or what is going well in the play and opportunities for improvement.
Gems and ops are important in order to maintain focus; to practice reflective, critical thinking; and to keep all team members on the same page.
Friday Showtime. Each cast will present to the classmates that are not in their play. Each play takes about 20 minutes. During the play, the audience members critique the play by writing down gems and ops.
Sample Friday Play Schedule:
- 11:00 Play #1 setup.
- 11:05 Play #1 performed; audience members write down gems and ops.
- 11:15 Director of play critiques the performance of his/her team with some gems and ops.
- 11:17 Audience members are chosen to share three gems and three ops. Teacher adds his/her opinion.
- 11:30 Play #1 takedown; play #2 setup.
- 11:35 Play #2 performed; audience members write down gems and ops.
- 11:45 Director of the play critiques the performance of his/her team with some gems and ops.
- 11:47 Audience members are chosen to share three gems and three ops. Teacher adds his/her opinion.
- 11:50 Play #2 takedown.
Photos: On the left, Pandora's Box. On the right, you get to see the actors hiding in the box.
On the left, Zeus and wife judged the bake off. On the right, the cast and crew. Each god/goddess dressed in a memorable way. They loved doing these plays!
The details thought of by the students . . . ambrosia, the food of the gods on the left, and wings on the feet to match the Internet research they did on their characters.
- Students should simply say "thank you" when taking gems and ops from the audience, to keep things moving. They should not try to explain or justify what they were doing.
- The best play gets a reward. In my classroom it is one of two things: Either the director gets to keep a traveling trophy on his/her desk for the week, or the cast of the winning play gets to eat lunch in the classroom on Friday with the teacher.
- Each week new directors and a shuffling of the cast members occur.
- I love this activity at the end of the year. It allows for maximum engagement with minimal input from the teacher. Students really are in charge of their learning.
- The director has the power to grade the other students, granting up to ten of the 100 points available for this assignment. This allows the director to have some power to facilitate a well-run rehearsal.
- Students develop their fluency skills.
- Students develop their abilities to read with inflection and emotion.
- Students increase their vocabulary.
- Students learn about Greek mythology.
- Students learn how to lead or work as a team toward a common goal.
- Students practice being resourceful and creative.
- Students learn how to present to an audience.
- Students learn how to give and receive constructive criticism.
- Students learn how to be reflective, critical thinkers.
- Students expand their comfort zones.
Director Vasicek
2i2 is a trademark of Mr. Vasicek's classroom. It promotes a life of integrity and doing your best.
I need to print out the play for the gods and godesses bake-off without subscribing, and I can't find a site that allows me to do so. Would you kindly send me the play from email? My email is: firstname.lastname@example.com. Thank you. It would be much appreciated!
It's like you read my mind this week! I was just looking for a way to integrate mythology into readers' theater and I absolutely love your ideas! One question though- you mentioned that students get 100 points for the weeklong assignment... how do you grade them? Do you have a rubric or an outline of expectations? Thank you for a great blog!
Great question! I am always switching it up, but currently I am using a point system based on the following:
20 Points ... Written summary of play 20 Points ... Written lesson learned from play (with specific examples from the text) 10 Points ... Focus, Respect, Responsibility during rehearsal 10 Points ... Given by the director of the play (this allows the directors a little bit of leverage and authority) 15 points ... Performance and preparedness for the play 15 points... Pronunciation and fluency during the play 10 Points ... Good audience member while watching other plays
Thanks for asking! Brent
For years I have tried to integrate readers theater, but I always sturggle with the timeline and an effective structure. Thanks so much for sharing this great outline with us!
You are welcome. It has taken a few years to get the system down to a science, but the kids love it! ~Brent

Vegan Egg Nog
I've been meaning to come up with a great recipe for vegan egg nog for years now, and I finally got down to it this morning. I already knew the basic ingredients I wanted to use, and as I'd hoped, they came together beautifully. This is very sweet, not unlike traditional egg nog, which also made my recipe co-tester (my 8-year-old daughter) very happy! Enjoy.
1/4 cup raw cashews
1 large banana, very ripe (I use frozen banana)
2 cups almond milk (plain and unsweetened)
1/4 cup maple syrup
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg (plus more for garnish)
1/8 teaspoon EACH: sea salt and cinnamon
In a good blender, combine the cashews, banana, and just enough of the milk to blend. Process until creamy and then add the remaining ingredients. Blend until completely smooth and emulsified. Serve with a little extra nutmeg sprinkled on top. Happy holidays! : )
Makes 6-8 servings
GF/SF/Blue (according to the health guidelines in my books)

MIO is a medium-height, slender female with light skin. She has pink hair, which she keeps in long pigtails, and a hat that resembles a futuristic version of cat ears, with a mouthpiece. She wears a Galaxy Corporation uniform, distinguished by the blue color, while most of the other receptionists wear green.
MIO's personality is that of a stereotypical teenage girl. She is bubbly and upbeat, which adds to her popularity. However, she also seems to have a more serious side, as shown during a cutscene in which she smuggles data to Dr. Pocacchio. In this cutscene, it is also revealed that she was a childhood friend of Mark, the deceased son of Dr. Pocacchio.

Nokia Lumia 900 irks users by not connecting to the Web
A lot of hype and eager anticipation surrounded the release of Nokia's Lumia 900 smartphone yesterday. People debated whether to ditch their iPhones in lieu of this cheaper yet still high-end featured mobile device.
However, it seems this latest Windows Phone is off to a rocky start -- several owners of the 900s report that their new devices aren't connecting to AT&T's data networks.
"Got my new lumia 900 yesterday from at&t, everything's fine EXCEPT THE WEB," wrote one user on Nokia's Support Discussions. "Any 1 has the … Read more
