Broad-Minded Links Cell Cycle-Related Kinase to Cilia Assembly and Hedgehog Signal Transduction

SummaryRecent findings indicate that mammalian Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signal transduction occurs within primary cilia, although the cell biological mechanisms underlying both Shh signaling and ciliogenesis have not been fully elucidated. We show that an uncharacterized TBC domain-containing protein, Broad-minded (Bromi), is required for high-level Shh responses in the mouse neural tube. We find that Bromi controls ciliary morphology and proper Gli2 localization within the cilium. By use of a zebrafish model, we further show that Bromi is required for proper association between the ciliary membrane and axoneme. Bromi physically interacts with cell cycle-related kinase (CCRK), whose Chlamydomonas homolog regulates flagellar length. Biochemical and genetic interaction data indicate that Bromi promotes CCRK stability and function. We propose that Bromi and CCRK control the structure of the primary cilium by coordinating assembly of the axoneme and ciliary membrane, allowing Gli proteins to be properly activated in response to Shh signaling.

The Ciliary G-Protein-Coupled Receptor Gpr161 Negatively Regulates the Sonic Hedgehog Pathway via cAMP Signaling
Cell, Volume 152, Issue 1, 17 January 2013, Pages 210-223
Saikat Mukhopadhyay, Xiaohui Wen, Navneet Ratti, Alexander Loktev, Linda Rangell, Suzie J. Scales and Peter K. Jackson
SummaryThe primary cilium is required for Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling in vertebrates. In contrast to mutants affecting ciliary assembly, mutations in the intraflagellar transport complex A (IFT-A) paradoxically cause increased Shh signaling. We previously showed that the IFT-A complex, in addition to its canonical role in retrograde IFT, binds to the tubby-like protein, Tulp3, and recruits it to cilia. Here, we describe a conserved vertebrate G-protein-coupled receptor, Gpr161, which localizes to primary cilia in a Tulp3/IFT-A-dependent manner. Complete loss of Gpr161 in mouse causes midgestation lethality and increased Shh signaling in the neural tube, phenocopying Tulp3/IFT-A mutants. Constitutive Gpr161 activity increases cAMP levels and represses Shh signaling by determining the processing of Gli3 to its repressor form. Conversely, Shh signaling directs Gpr161 to be internalized from cilia, preventing its activity. Thus, Gpr161 defines a morphogenetic pathway coupling protein kinase A activation to Shh signaling during neural tube development.

Arl13b in Primary Cilia Regulates the Migration and Placement of Interneurons in the Developing Cerebral Cortex
Developmental Cell, Volume 23, Issue 5, 13 November 2012, Pages 925-938
Holden Higginbotham, Tae-Yeon Eom, Laura E. Mariani, Amelia Bachleda, Joshua Hirt, Vladimir Gukassyan, Corey L. Cusack, Cary Lai, Tamara Caspary and E.S. Anton
SummaryCoordinated migration and placement of interneurons and projection neurons lead to functional connectivity in the cerebral cortex; defective neuronal migration and the resultant connectivity changes underlie the cognitive defects in a spectrum of neurological disorders. Here we show that primary cilia play a guiding role in the migration and placement of postmitotic interneurons in the developing cerebral cortex and that this process requires the ciliary protein, Arl13b. Through live imaging of interneuronal cilia, we show that migrating interneurons display highly dynamic primary cilia and we correlate cilia dynamics with the interneuron's migratory state. We demonstrate that the guidance cue receptors essential for interneuronal migration localize to interneuronal primary cilia, but their concentration and dynamics are altered in the absence of Arl13b. Expression of Arl13b variants known to cause Joubert syndrome induce defective interneuronal migration, suggesting that defects in cilia-dependent interneuron migration may in part underlie the neurological defects in Joubert syndrome patients.

- Several studies have linked cilia and Hedgehog signaling, but the precise roles of ciliary proteins in signal transduction remain enigmatic. Here we describe a mouse mutation, hennin (hnn), that causes coupled defects in cilia structure and Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling. The hnn mutant cilia are short with a specific defect in the structure of the ciliary axoneme, and the hnn neural tube shows a Shh-independent expansion of the domain of motor neuron progenitors. The hnn mutation is a null allele of Arl13b, a small GTPase of the Arf/Arl family, and the Arl13b protein is localized to cilia. Double mutant analysis indicates that Gli3 repressor activity is normal in hnn embryos, but Gli activators are constitutively active at low levels. Thus, normal structure of the ciliary axoneme is required for the cell to translate different levels of Shh ligand into differential regulation of the Gli transcription factors that implement Hedgehog signals.

The Histone-Fold Protein Complex CHRAC-15/17 Enhances Nucleosome Sliding and Assembly Mediated by ACF
Molecular Cell, Volume 13, Issue 2, 30 January 2004, Pages 265-277
Iwao Kukimoto, Sarah Elderkin, Margaret Grimaldi, Thomas Oelgeschläger and Patrick D Varga-Weisz
SummaryThe histone fold is a structural motif with which two related proteins interact and is found in complexes involved in wrapping DNA, the nucleosome, and transcriptional regulation, as in NC2. We reveal a novel function for histone-fold proteins: facilitation of nucleosome remodeling. ACF1-ISWI complex (ATP-dependent chromatin assembly and remodeling factor [ACF]) associates with histone-fold proteins (CHRAC-15 and CHRAC-17 in the human chromatin accessibility complex [CHRAC]) whose functional relevance has been unclear. We show that these histone-fold proteins facilitate ATP-dependent nucleosome sliding by ACF. Direct interaction of the CHRAC-15/17 complex with the ACF1 subunit is essential for this process. CHRAC-17 interacts with another histone-fold protein, p12, in DNA polymerase ϵ, but CHRAC-15 is essential for interaction with ACF and enhancement of nucleosome sliding. Surprisingly, CHRAC-15/17, p12/CHRAC-17, and NC2 complexes facilitate ACF-mediated chromatin assembly by a mechanism different from nucleosome sliding enhancement, suggesting a general activity of H2A/H2B type histone-fold complexes in chromatin assembly.

ISWI Induces Nucleosome Sliding on Nicked DNA
Molecular Cell, Volume 8, Issue 5, 21 November 2001, Pages 1085-1092
Gernot Längst and Peter B. Becker
SummaryThe ATPase ISWI is the molecular motor of several remodeling factors that trigger nucleosome sliding in vitro. In search for the underlying mechanism, we found that unilateral binding of ISWI to a model nucleosome correlated with directional movement of the nucleosome toward the enzyme. It has been proposed that ISWI might loosen histone-DNA interactions through twisting DNA. However, nucleosome sliding assays on nicked DNA substrates suggest that propagation of altered twist is not involved. Surprisingly, nicks in the linker DNA in front of the nucleosome facilitate sliding. These data suggest that the rate of nucleosome sliding is limited by a conformational change other than twisting, such as the formation of a short loop, of DNA at the entry into the nucleosome.

ISWI Is an ATP-Dependent Nucleosome Remodeling Factor

Davide F.V Corona, Gernot Längst, Cedric R Clapier, Edgar J Bonte, Simona Ferrari, John W Tamkun and Peter B Becker
SummaryThe ATPase ISWI is a subunit of several distinct nucleosome remodeling complexes that increase the accessibility of DNA in chromatin. We found that the isolated ISWI protein itself was able to carry out nucleosome remodeling, nucleosome rearrangement, and chromatin assembly reactions. The ATPase activity of ISWI was stimulated by nucleosomes but not by free DNA or free histones, indicating that ISWI recognizes a specific structural feature of nucleosomes. Nucleosome remodeling, therefore, does not require a functional interaction between ISWI and the other subunits of ISWI complexes. The role of proteins associated with ISWI may be to regulate the activity of the remodeling engine or to define the physiological context within which a nucleosome remodeling reaction occurs.

Add/View Comments (0)Nucleosome Movement by CHRAC and ISWI without Disruption or trans-Displacement of the Histone Octamer
Gernot Längst1, †, ‡, Edgar J Bonte1, †, Davide F.V Corona1 and Peter B Becker1, *, ‡, *,
Correspondence: Peter B. Becker, 49-89-5996-427 (phone), 49-89-5996-425 (fax)Abstract
- The chromatin accessibility complex (CHRAC) belongs to the class of nucleosome remodeling factors that increase the accessibility of nucleosomal DNA in an ATP-dependent manner. We found that CHRAC induces movements of intact histone octamers to neighboring DNA segments without facilitating their displacement to competing DNA or histone chaperones in trans. CHRAC-induced energy-dependent nucleosome sliding may, in principle, explain nucleosome remodeling, nucleosome positioning, and nucleosome spacing reactions known to be catalyzed by CHRAC. The catalytic core of CHRAC, the ATPase ISWI, also mobilized nucleosomes at the expense of energy. However, the directionality of the CHRAC- and ISWI-induced nucleosome movements differed drastically, indicating that the geometry of the native complex modulates the activity of its catalytic core.

How do the side pouches attach to the costume? Is it through one of the belts? Is it attached directly to the side of the jumpsuit? Does anyone have pics of this?

How do the side pouches attach to the costume? Is it through one of the belts? Is it attached directly to the side of the jumpsuit? Does anyone have pics of this?
some wear them on the same belt as the eight leather pouches, and then they're back on your side.
I wear mine esb style, hanging below the leather pouches, in line with the thigh pouches. I use a separate belt for them.
I put the codpiece on.
Then the rope belt.
Then the belt with the cloth pouches
And lastly the leather pouch belt.
Hope this helps,
What hides the belt that the pouches are attached to (if anything?)

The last belt, with leather pouches, hides it pretty well. Overall I wouldn't even mind if it peeked here and there. More belts makes the suit look more complicated. And it is...
Thanks for the info.
I was thinking about maybe a rig something like this:
Where you glue another part of a smaller belt to the back of the ammo belt . . then you could loop the pouch and let it hang below . . . gives the same result . . . but, one less belt to put on . . . as you say . . . the suit is pretty complex! :) hehe
I believe one of the ROTJ belts had velcro on the outside of the pouch flap, and the opposite type velcro on the inside of the belt. Another method would be snaps
The side pouches were worn on the leather belt at the MoM display,
but the AoSW display had them attached to the girth belt.
MoM/AoSW is a HORRIBLE ref when it comes to how the suit was assembled... Don't believe me? Check out the pic below. Need I say more?
Attachment 45981
Humm, I wonder who would do a stupid thing like that? :lol
Ankle spats, wrist spats, aren't they all the same? :facepalm
The ESB pouches were definately not worn on the leather belt, but under it. Now whether or not they were attached to the girth belt or to the underside of the leather belt, I don't know. As far as RotJ, I'm still looking for a good, conclusive picture to post.
Agreed BF. I haven't been able to find a TRUE RotJ pic but I can verify that the RotJ:SE setup has the pouches attches the same way the ESb does. The large cargo pouches come out from under the leather pouches...
:lol Brak's, where do you find this stuff??
:: that pic makes me wanna start work on my F'dUpMOM Fett suit ::
My take on ESB pouch mounting is that they possibly mounted them to the jet pack harness waist belt, then covered it with the ammo belt. You can see that in several prepro pics the jet pack harneess was exposed. By putting the ammo belt over the hip bags (when the hip bags are attached to the harness it would keep the ammo belt mounted up high and wouldn't be able to slide down to expose the jet pack harness. Confused? -Mark
I need some dimension for my ROTJ flight suit. I need the
thigh pouch, belt pouch and utility pocket dimensions.
What do we know about color and material and patterns for the 2 ROTJ side pouches???
I believe they are the same color and material as the jumpsuit.
The side pouches are indeed a tan color. Mine's are made of a tan cotton material, similar to the one use for the jumpsuit...but tan. I'm gonna weather it a little once I finish with all the soft parts of my costume.
Robert :fettrotj
Has anyone confirmed that (4" wide x 5" tall x 1" deep) is the correct size for the thigh pouches? I converted these patterns to print out at actual size. You can download them here, but I just want to make sure this is the correct dimension.
See correct patterns below...
fpoato, I used 7 1/2" tall X 6" wide X 2" deep, and leaving a 1/2" extra fabric all around for sewing. I actually had to adapt and create a second one from the patterns you gave me a few months ago so it could fit on me, which I did and traced a newly custom pattern myself to work with it. Same size for my belt pouches which they were already made and bought from Ebay, due to the fact that I have a small/average frame, but they look pretty good once I have it on, and the belt pouches fits really good in my belt as well with my 34" waist...not bad!
Robert :fettrotj
okay all you Empire Fetts out there im in need of help, despite aaaaall the ref shot of fett out there im curious as to how all you ESBers out there have the 2 waist pouches (the big ones on the sides) connected to your suits. i cant see any way of stringing them on the ammo belt as there is no room, unless there some hidden loops somewhere. o the woes of being an ESBer.......
If I am not mistaken, the side bags velcro to the underside of the ammo belt.
I made a seperate belt that these go on. Then I put the ammo belt over the top of that. I used velcro on the front side of my Pouch belt, & on the inside of the ammo belt. That way the smaller pouch belt will stay hidden underneath the larger ammo belt. Theres just too much stuff on the leather ammo belt + ESB side arm. On my 1st belt I tried to fit everything on the big ammo belt, but found that the 2 seperate belts works better, (at least for me :lol)
velcro! genious tyler! i can deal with velcro!
Well, here's the work I did for the belt pouches dimensions. For the bottom, invert the diagonal line the other way to use as the left side. This is an example for the right side, and leave an extra 1/2 inch around of fabric when you cut this patterns. For the thigh pouches, just omit the middle square and of course leave an extra 1/2" of fabric for the seams instead. Join the 2" segments together to form the "box" before attaching to the thighs, and use the flap segment to sew straight to the jumpsuit after you sew the pocket box.
For the belt loop, that will be sewn in to the back of the pouch once is sewn together,
Hope this clarifies your doubt a little bit.
Robert :fettrotj
Although it's not movie-accurate, I sewed belt loops onto the back tops of my side bags. Velcro is probably the best way to go, but I usually carry my amplifier system in one of them, and didn't want to take a chance on having the pouch slip down during a gig.
Just my two credits...
Somethings bugging me for a while now ....the marmit figure is hyper accurate right ?........the hip pouches are different sizes......I'm just thinking they must have had a reason..hmmmmmmm
I had a stupid question about Boba's Utility Pouches. i'm doing a RTOJ scheme and Ive seen several photos of his thigh & cloth belt pouches stuffed differently. Some with tons o' stuff in them making them very pronounced, almost boxlike on the thighs, and very heavy sagging belt pouches. Ive also seen several photos which looks like nothings in them at all ????
I was curious to get some feedback on what y'allz put into your pouches ( foam, paper,nudie mags:love)and what would be the most comfortable. I know I could answer my own question im sure, but id like to hear other suggestions
In the belt pouches I just got I put old socks (clean socks) in them to make them look kinda full but still be light and not hard. The thigh ones I left empty but will probally but things like a wallet and glasses case in them.
I have foam blocks in my thigh pouches and folded up rags in my belt pouches.
I have foam blocks in mine as well, although one is cut around my Radio Shack amplifier system.
I don't have anything yet, cause there's gonna be a lot of stuff in both belt pouches, specially my Radio Shack amplifier, plus my wallet, my watch and my camera(s) most likely in the other side.
The thigh pouches with the foam blocks sounds like a plan. :):thumbsup
Robert :fettrotj
While looking over the side saddle pouches this morning I noticed something I haven't seen mentioned before. While most of the Fett suits have a distinctive left and right pouch, the ESB has two of the same kind! See the pics below. Interestingly enough this is present in all the ESB shots as well as the prepro 3 suit which is basically a pre-esb suit. Amazingly enough it is also present on the Marmit! Has anyone who is making an ESB suit noticed this or made their pouches this way?
Yippeee! Nice catch. :)
I made both mine the same after studying the reference CD.
What's with the arm of the jumpsuit looking quilted? Look at it ... NO, LOOK :p That looks weird :rolleyes That's one thing I never noticed, but I really haven't taken that long a look at the ESB suit, I have other interests :fettpre but still interesting all the same :D
nice catch.. I'm about to have my suit sewn up so this is very benneficial. thanks!
I never noticed it before! Hey, I have a theory. In ROTJ one of the pouches were simply inverted like a sock. I can do the same with my RA pouches and the bead (is that the right word?) and the seams ain't too conspicuous.
hey all, after a good night of research, two prototypes, I Was able to muster these up...ROTJ pouches :) I still have to dye them, I was thinking of simply throwing them in pot of tea to stain them the correct hue of tan.
Those look Great! I'd like to know how the tea works to color them. I made some from canvas and used RIT dye, they shrunk way too much from the hot water. Next time I'm going to try just soaking them in cold tea or coffee for a week to see what happens. Keep us posted.
I've dyed a few things in the past using tea, works a treat.
That is why your supposed to wash and preshrink any material, especially cotton material, before you make something so that shrinking dosn't happen!! ;)Quote:

yup, I have a feeling I will be preshrinking THEN dying at some point. I was kinda of hasty and wanted to see how this fabric would behave. Hopefully it won't shrink that much !
Thanks for the compliments guys ! I will hit the tea thing tonight !
Great job,and remember,you can do the tea soak more than once if the first time is too light a color.
They look really good,well done!
My other sister (they're so talented :) ) now makes the hip pouches. The pouches are made from 100% cotton (same thickness as khaki pants) and they come in several colors. I've included a photo below for reference and it would be up to you to weather them the way you'd like. Comes with a velcro closure. These also work for Biker Scouts and Snow Troopers. She sells the pouches for $39 shipped per pair. PM me for details.

WOW! Great pouches and great price!
What color do you recommend for a ROTJ or Magic of Myth/Special Edition Fett?
I'm getting the Khaki ones (the middle color) for my ROTJ SE outfit.
Chris, are these 100% cotton or a blend? The reason I ask is that if they are darker than expected, !00% can be lightened with bleach whereas blends (generally) can't. Also, 100% is much either to weather and age via the washing machine.
Here is a good reference shot of the RotJ pouches for color comparison. I'd say that either the khaki or lt. khaki are the closest match.
I have to say that those are about the closest I have seen them come to the original!
**** fine job man!

Droodby Dan Simmons
Review-A-Day"On June 9, 1865, Charles Dickens was returning from a trip to Paris, traveling by train from Folkestone to London. As the train approached the river Beult near Staplehurst, the rail viaduct spanning the river collapsed. Incredibly, the engine was able to jump the 45-foot gap between the rails, but six of seven private passenger cars fell to the swampy riverbed below. Dickens was seated in the one private car that was spared. Descending to the crash victims, the great English writer witnessed scenes of death and carnage that would haunt him for the remaining five years of his life. What happened to Dickens after Staplehurst is the subject of Dan Simmons's new novel, Drood, a work that is equal parts historical fiction, horror, and mystery." Bob Hussey, Rain Taxi (Read the entire Rain Taxi review) Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:On June 9, 1865, while traveling by train to London with his secret mistress, 53-year-old Charles Dickens — at the height of his powers and popularity, the most famous and successful novelist in the world and perhaps in the history of the world — hurtled into a disaster that changed his life forever.
Did Dickens begin living a dark double life after the accident? Were his nightly forays into the worst slums of London and his deepening obsession with corpses, crypts, murder, opium dens, the use of lime pits to dissolve bodies, and a hidden subterranean London mere research...or something more terrifying? Just as he did in The Terror, Dan Simmons draws impeccably from history to create a gloriously engaging and terrifying narrative. Based on the historical details of Charles Dickens's life and narrated by Wilkie Collins (Dickens's friend, frequent collaborator, and Salieri-style secret rival), Drood explores the still-unsolved mysteries of the famous author's last years and may provide the key to Dickens's final, unfinished work: The Mystery of Edwin Drood. Chilling, haunting, and utterly original, Drood is Dan Simmons at his powerful best. Review:"Bestseller Simmons (The Terror) brilliantly imagines a terrifying sequence of events as the inspiration for Dickens's last, uncompleted novel, The Mystery of Edwin Drood, in this unsettling and complex thriller. In the course of narrowly escaping death in an 1865 train wreck and trying to rescue fellow passengers, Dickens encounters a ghoulish figure named Drood, who had apparently been traveling in a coffin. Along with his real-life novelist friend Wilkie Collins, who narrates the tale, Dickens pursues the elusive Drood, an effort that leads the pair to a nightmarish world beneath London's streets. Collins begins to wonder whether the object of their quest, if indeed the man exists, is merely a cover for his colleague's own murderous inclinations. Despite the book's length, readers will race through the pages, drawn by the intricate plot and the proliferation of intriguing psychological puzzles, which will remind many of the work of Charles Palliser and Michael Cox. 4-city author tour. (Feb.)" Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Review:"My name is Wilkie Collins," announces the narrator of "Drood," "and my guess, since I plan to delay the publication of this document for at least a century and a quarter beyond the date of my demise, is that you do not recognise my name." Au contraire, Wilkie! We know and love you still. Has any thriller ever boasted a better opening sequence than your "Woman in White"? Has any detective... Washington Post Book Review (read the entire Washington Post review)
Synopsis:Based on the historical details of Charles Dickens' life, Drood explores the still-unsolved mysteries of the famous author's last years and may provide the key to his final, unfinished work: The Mystery of Edwin Drood.

No Sex, Please, We're Japanese
Then what, pray tell, was the whole imperial thing all about?
Japan has a problem, a lack of children, and it seems likely there will be even fewer in the future.
Japanese researchers have now warned of a doomsday scenario if it carries on this way with the last child to be born there in 3011 and the Japanese people potentially disappearing a few generations later.
Academics from the city of Sendai, which was hit hard by last year's tsunami, calculate there are now 16.6 million children under the age of 14 now in Japan.
And they say that number is shrinking at a disturbing rate of one every 100 seconds.So if you do the mathematics, as they did, then the country will have no children within a millennium.
Another study recently showed Japan's population is expected to fall a third from its current 127.7 million over the next century.
The question everybody asks is why is there a lack of children?
The answer seems to lie in several reasons.
One reason is the cost. Japan is an extremely expensive country and getting a child through college can wipe out a family's finances.
But research shows it goes much deeper than that as the Japanese state does throw a lot of money at people with children.
Another argument is that there are more effeminate men now called "Herbivores" there who are either not interested in sex or women don't find masculine enough.
Then some suggest many young Japanese people prefer "virtual" friends with a robot or on the internet, while others suggest their fascination with comics rather than relationships is the cause for a lack of babies.A study was released earlier this year in which it showed Japan's young people are shunning the idea of marriage and having children.
The National Institute of Population and Social Security Research study also showed one in four unmarried men and women in their 30s had never had sex, and most young women preferred being single.
It also showed over 60 percent of unmarried young men didn't have a girlfriend, and nearly 50 percent of women of the same age weren't dating.
If that wasn't bad enough, young Japanese people are also, it seems, increasingly not interested in sex.
A survey by the Japan Family Planning Association found that 36 percent of males between 16 and 19 had "no interest" in sex.
If I recall my teenage years correctly, that just can't be true. Unless the nuclear disaster fried more than a few fish and birds.
But there's something to the "Herbivore" idea. Except for the odd yakuza, Japanese men don't present as all that masculine, do they? The women (some of them) more than make up for it in presenting as feminine, but all their wiles aren't going to work on a nation of Ryan Seacrests.
Anyway, don't look for Japan to be a bulwark against China expansionism:
"Japan will be more likely to prioritize healthcare than international security," Brad Glosserman and Tomoko Tsunada wrote in Foreign Policy Magazine. "Older societies are typically more risk-averse, and Japanese — 'reluctant realists' at the best of times — will be increasingly unwilling to put their most precious resource, their young, in harm's way," they said.
What an irony that the 21st century may play out between these countries as the 20th did, with roles reversed.

CLAUSE: Legal State of Mind
"This Contract shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the state of __________. The parties agree that any legal proceedings arising out of this contract shall be litigated in any court of competent jurisdiction in the state in which the Hotel is located."
EFFECT: Toto, You're Not in Kansas Anymore
The choice of law and venue clause may become significant in the event of a serious dispute between the hotel and the group because it spells out two things: under what state's laws the contract language will be interpreted in the event of a dispute; and where a lawsuit can be filed and litigated.
Each state has statutes that address contracts and a body of case law that has developed from prior contract disputes resolved in that state (common law). This means that identical contract disputes litigated in two different states could have completely different outcomes, based on each state's laws and case precedents.
For example, say a group is being sued by a hotel. Where a lawsuit can be brought and defended is a legal question of jurisdiction. To oversimplify this issue, it is important to know that a group can always be sued in its own backyard (where the group is located and/or incorporated, for example) or where the contract is to be performed. One might say that the contract is to be performed in the state in which the hotel is located — where the meeting is to be held. Without "choice of venue" language in the contract, a dispute might be litigated either where the group is or where the hotel is.
This clause specifies that the dispute will be litigated where the hotel is located. The pros: The group might be subject to jurisdiction there anyway, if that is where the contract is to be performed. Also, any witnesses or documents required for resolution of the dispute may already be located at the hotel (if the dispute is over something that happened on site, for example). The cons: The laws and case precedents may be more favorable to the group in the group's home state or in another state that would have jurisdiction if this language were not in the contract. Also, travel expenses to and from the hotel's locale to bring or defend a lawsuit could be costly.

Homeschool curriculum for 13 year old
(15 Posts)Ps sorry meant to say hello musicposy, not post!
Hello music post, I was very interested in your post. After failing with home ed for 6weeks I put my daughter into private ed, but now we like to try and get back into it, mainly for financial and practical purposes. She's 12 so in first year of secondary, she passed 11plus so is academically bright. I like the idea of jumping straight into igcses rather than ks2. I would like to ask you about Maths and English, do you choose to do these later rather than sooner? Do you think these subjects need more attention than the others? Cheers

Oh, and I wouldn't bother with Key Stage 3. We did that for a year with my elder daughter when she came out at age 12 and soon realised it was a complete waste of time - just a holding pen between primary school and GCSE. Even maths you can go straight to GCSE. You can always start at foundation level and then work up to higher. With my younger daughter we finished the primary curriculum and then went straight to GCSE. It's worked fine.
Also, you don't have to cover every subject at once like school. You can do two or three and then later, another two or three. This means you can move very fast in your chosen subjects.
Here's one thing you could do if your brother came out of school, which might satisfy your mum and give him plenty of time to follow his own interests.
He could pick say, two subjects he is interested in and look at the IGCSE courses for those. (They're basically international GCSEs and all colleges and unis will accept them as GCSEs - maybe better). You don't need expensive courses for these. If you go on here you can download the syllabuses which tell you everything to cover and suggest books that will cover them for you. You can also use the board Edexcel but we like Cambridge better as the past papers are easy to get hold of.
He could then do a little work in each of his chosen subjects with the aim of taking those IGCSEs in either the autumn or next summer (this autumn would be perfectly feasible). The rest of the day he would have to do whatever he wanted. Once he's done them he could do a couple more. That way he could easily have a good handful by 16 - maybe better than school if he is not doing well there.
My daughter is 13 and we are doing 2 IGCSEs at a time. This summer she is taking Biology and Sociology and we're kind of working towards Geography. She already has Physics which she took at 11. She's not a genius (!) just motivated and we don't waste time on stuff she doesn't want or need.
My 17 year old did 11 GCSEs this way with very little hard work or pressure. She never worked for more than a couple of hours a day! She is now in college doing A levels and doing very well, but she does moan about how much time they waste! Home ed is very efficient and so you have lots of time for other interests (Skylanders and Pokemon for my 13 year old )
I can give you much more help and give you some good yahoo groups etc if you think this route is a possiblity. One thing we loved was that my elder daughter got all her GCSEs without any of the awful pressure you get in school nowadays.
You sound very caring, he's lucky to have you as a sister!
Congratulations for your independent thinking . You, yourself can home school your D Brother aged 13 in subjects that interest both of you. You can also discuss plans between the two of you. Young people are incredibly mature and have clear minds. I home schooled my son since he was v young.
Your Brother can start self reading GCSEs subjects..
I have for you here an online resource that your Brother - and you - might like to use. There are two sites udacity.com and coursera.org with hundreds of courses run by the top-est world universities free and for all levels. Browse with him the categories' in the second site. Is he interested in Maths? he can self read the GCSE text and after his he can do the intermediate algebra. There are great English and History courses. Good luck
That's fantastic! I am really pleased to hear that your mum is willing to give the idea of home ed serious consideration.
It might be very useful to involve your brother in discussions of resources too. Perhaps you and your mum could narrow it down to several programmes which you think would suit him and then let him have a browse, or he could spend a day working through sample materials from each provider. He may be able to say fairly quickly and accurately whether he feels that he'll understand and be enthused by a particular programme, or whether it is a big turn-off for him!
My friends whose children are doing formal learning say it is very common to need to try various things in the early months in order to settle on something that works well for the child. It's a process of exploring and getting familiar with his learning style. This may be new to all of you, if your brother has never had the opportunity to work on something chosen specially for him but has instead been lumbered with whatever approach is standard at his school.
That's great .
You might want to tell your mum that I was incredibly apprehensive about home educating my DS1 (ended up having no choice because his anxiety about school made him too ill to go), but the difference in him one year on is almost unbelievable. His confidence has grown, he is much cheerier and he is thinking about things that he wants to do in the future.
And if the home education doesn't work out, your brother can go back to school again. It is not a final choice. He could always go back to school to sit his GCSEs if that is what he wants to do later.
Good luck!
Thank you all for your kind words! I will have a look at the things you have suggested. My mother seems much more enthusiastic today and relalises that this could be the best thing for my brother. Now we need to decide what resources to use,
hi, i home ed my 11yo dd, and we use BBC education resources and TES.co.uk a fair bit.
hope this helps
Hello, spwills. What a lovely big sister you are. Your brother is lucky to have you looking out for him.
I home educate my 13-year-old son because he was miserable at school, like your brother. He is so much happier now (one year since he left school) and often tells me how much he enjoys being home educated. Maybe it will help you to know what we did.
When we started out, I considered using Interhigh or Briteschool. I decided against these because they were costly and I suspected they wouldn't suit my son, but they might be worth looking at for your brother. I realise that money may be an issue, though, and there is always the problem that, as you say, the home education may not work out and then it's money wasted.
What I did pay for, in the end, was a course from Little Arthur Independent School, who specialise in home-education courses. I paid £135 for their one-year Science course, which gave me a textbook and regular marked assignments to do to ensure DS is keeping on track with the National Curriculum. He does one module every day. Of course, a lot of home educators would say this is a lot of money to pay for a textbook and a few marked assignments, but it gives me confidence that we are on the right track, and it is also cheaper and more flexible than the online schools. Little Arthur also provides courses on English, History and Maths, right up to IGCSE level.
I spend a lot of one-to-one time helping my DS1 with his work, which I realise your mother may not want or have time to do with your brother (especially with six children!). We do not use a set curriculum for the other subjects. We use Galore Park textbooks, internet resources, the library, DVDs and a tutor for Maths (because I'm lousy at Maths ).
I hope this helps a bit.
I also wanted to say that although a trial period of homeschool would be lovely, it all depends on what curriculum we would be using. I don't want my mother to pay a lot of money for a curriculum or distance learning and then for it to not work out. That's why I'd love to know what other people use !
Thank you for your reply ! I love the idea of an autonomous education. However "school at home" would be a compromise between my brother and mother . She would be certain he is getting an education that will help towards later qualifications, and he would be able to explore his interests as well as do his school work . My brother leaves the house at 7 in the morning and doesn't get home until 6 in the evening . Homeschooling would allow him to do work in the morning and then use the rest of his day to explore his own interests and learn naturally.
I think my mother would be willing to come on here, as she has acknowledged the fact that homeschooling would make him a lot happier. I have hundreds or books on the subject, but she is so busy with 6 children to look after!
So I think an "academic" path would be right for my brother, and I think it's the best compromise that will also allow him to explore his own interests. School has changed him in a bad way and we hardly recognize him anymore .
Thanks again for your help, and if anyone uses or knows of a particular Key stage 3 and GCSE homeschool curriculum, I would love to hear from you!
I don't know the answer to your question, but I'm sure someone will be along soon with some suggestions.
Meanwhile, have you looked into the philosophy of autonomous education? By the sounds of it, this is what you yourself have been doing: choosing your own path and motivating yourself without your parents directing your education. However, by the sounds of it you chose a very academic direction, and besides that you were already 16.
If your brother were allowed to follow his own interests also, he might not make the same choices, at least initially. He's a different person who may not enjoy the same things as you, he has been demotivated by his school experiences, and his education is still your parents' legal responsibility. All of this might mean that if he were autonomously educated he would not choose to do anything which looks at all like "work" for a very long time, and that might worry them.
However, it still could be a very practical solution. He may need quite a long break from academics before he rediscovers his love of learning. In the meantime your mum would not have the challenge of trying to force him to do "work".
Given time, he will find his wings. He might then go on to do distance learning with enthusiasm, or he might go to college, or he might do something entirely different. Pushing too hard in the direction of formal study from the word go could backfire: it sounds like you and your mum have serious doubts that he would actually want to do the work.
If I were you, here's how I would put it to your parents: He isn't doing any work now. He isn't learning anything. He is miserable. In what way could a trial period of home education possibly be any worse than the current situation? Let him have a year off school with no pressure on, and see what happens. Many parents report that once all academic pressure is removed, their child's outlook is transformed. That could happen to your brother. And even if it doesn't he will be no worse off than he is now. At least he could have had some time to explore what makes him happy, and your whole family would have established that home ed isn't the way to go after all. What do you stand to lose by giving it a go?
Perhaps your mum might be easier to persuade if she heard it from people who've been there. Are there any home ed groups near you where she could go to talk to other parents who have taken teens out of school? If not, do you think she'd be willing to come here or on some other home ed forum to chat about her concerns and learn more?
Hello everyone,
So I'll start by saying that I am on mumsnet, but I am not a mother, or father .
I am 18 years old and currently homeschooling myself through A Levels. I decided I wanted to homeschool 2 years ago after reading "The Teenage Liberation Handbook."
I was not happy with school in general and this, along with other reasons, persuaded me that this is what I wanted to do. My parents supported me as I am an independent person, and I was old enough then to decide for myself how I wanted to be educated. However, they don't know much about home schooling, and think that school is just fine, so my brother and sisters go to school.
My 13 year old brother is extremely unhappy at school. He doesn't work, the teachers pick on him and has no good friends. He is desperate to homeschool like me. I currently use Oxford Home Schooling for my A-Levels, with brilliant tutors. But I am not sure if this would work for him, or be motivating enough.
As I have said before, my mother doesn't know anything about homeschooling, and is not keen on letting my brother quit school because she believes he won't work at home and will never get an education etc...
What I want to know is if anybody here knows of any good curriculum to use for homeschooling 13+. Something like distance learning would be good, as my brother would have the support from tutors. I'd really like to know what all you home schoolers use, in the hope of persuading my mother that this may be a serious option for my brother.
Thank you for reading!

Sen. Robert Menendez faces new questions on ties to big donor
A new report that Senator Menendez sponsored a bill that could have helped a major Florida donor's investment in natural gas vehicle conversion rekindles rumors of ethics violations.
New York
More trouble is looming for Sen. Robert Menendez (D) of New Jersey: According to an Associated Press investigation, the embattled New Jersey Democrat sponsored legislation that, if passed, would have aided one of his biggest donor's investment in a natural gas vehicle conversion company.
Skip to next paragraphThe report, published Monday, stated that Senator Menendez sponsored a bill to give tax credits and grants to truck and heavy vehicle fleets that converted to natural gas. The bill could have benefited Salomon Melgen, the Florida eye doctor whose close relationship with Menendez has spurred a Senate ethics investigation. Dr. Melgen is an investor and member of the board of directors of Gaseous Fuel Systems Corp., which designs, manufactures, and sells products to convert diesel- and gas-fuel vehicles to natural gas.
Menendez's backing of the natural-gas bill marks another convergence of interest between the politician and a major donor and is a thorn for the senator. But political watchers in New Jersey say the bill sponsorship is one part of a larger clean-energy agenda from the senator, who has a history of supporting environmental causes. As such, it is unlikely this latest allegation represents a conflict of interest, says Brigid Harrison, a political scientist at Montclair State University, who predicts that Menendez will survive the latest storm.
RECOMMENDED: So you think you know Congress? Take our quiz.
"I'm still not convinced ... that this kind of behavior reaches to the status where it becomes enormously problematic in voters' minds," says Professor Harrison. "I'm not seeing any illegality or conflict of interest here."
The bill-sponsorship revelation revives the larger issue of the senator's relationship with Melgen, with recent reports suggesting that Menendez was providing political favors for Melgen in exchange for campaign support.
Menendez used Melgen's private jet for two personal trips to the Dominican Republic in 2010, flights that were not reimbursed until three years later, when news reports called the senator's conduct into question.
Menendez also intervened in a Medicare billing dispute between Melgen and federal authorities, as well as a port security contract, allegedly in order to protect the interests of his friend and donor, according to news reports. The allegations are compounded by a $700,000 donation Melgen made to Majority PAC, a "super political-action committee" created to elect Senate Democrats that ultimately made a $582,500 contribution to Menendez's 2012 reelection campaign, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.
Menendez has vehemently denied all allegations of impropriety, including any allegations of conflict-of-interest stemming from this latest report. His office did not respond to calls regarding his sponsorship of the natural gas bill.
According to the AP report, Menendez joined Senate majority leader Harry Reid (D) and Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch (R) as a key backer of the natural gas bill. Soon after, Melgen joined the board of directors of Gaseous Fuel Systems Corp., which makes technology to perform such conversions. Though his investment in the company is confidential under US Securities and Exchange Commission rules, the company required a minimum investment of $51,500, according to the AP.

South Africa to host Bahrain's Champions event
GEORGE, South Africa — South Africa will host the European Tour's Volvo Golf Champions event next year after it was moved out of Bahrain because of security concerns.
The decision by organizers and sponsors gives South Africa three successive European Tour events in January with the Africa Open, the Joburg Open and the Golf Champions falling on consecutive weekends.
The European Tour announced in August the $2.8-million event would not return to Bahrain in 2012 because of recent instability in the Gulf state.
Instead, the Fancourt links course on South Africa's south coast — which staged the 2003 Presidents Cup — will now host from Jan. 19-22.
Englishman Paul Casey won the inaugural Volvo Golf Champions at Bahrain's Royal Golf Club. The 2012 field will be announced next month.

Junior All Americans Victorious in Canada |
National Teams - Age-Grade Men |
The JAAs will take on Canada again on Saturday May 26 in Langford, B.C. in the final warm up match before the Junior World Rugby Trophy kicks off on June 18 in Salt Lake City. Saturday's game will be webcast live at sportscanada.tv. Despite a fairly high penalty count, Kingsley McGowan scored a hat trick against Canada and played a huge role in the win. The JAAs dominated possession and the forwards gave plenty of go forward ball to help release the lethal backs. A slow start for the USA allowed Canada to jump out to an early lead, scoring a converted try and penalty before the JAAs got on the board. Despite the USA being deep in the Canadian half for much of the first 40, the All-Americans weren't able to convert territory into points. McGowan touched down in the corner in the 19th minute to put his team on the board. A few attacking opportunities went begging for the JAAs and Canada notched another score just before halftime to leave the scores at 8-15 Canada. Just before the half, the referee sent Tim O'Hara off for ten minutes for killing the ball, leaving the JAAs seven points behind and a man down. Cameron Falcon, the big front rower from Louisiana State, barreled over for a score to start the second half and got the JAAs off on the right foot. McGowan was lethal at inside center and scored another great try from short range and Madison Hughes converted to put the USA up 20-15. The home team wasn't going without a fight, however. Canada got another converted try, but a gritty performance from the All-Americans allowed McGowan to get another five pointer late to go ahead. McGowan turned a gap into a gaping hole before Canada had time to respond to get his hat trick. The speed merchant almost had a fourth score as well, but was dragged down five meters out from the try line. The Junior All-Americans closed the first game out, but the Canadians will get a second shot at the Americans on Saturday May 26 in Langford, B.C. "We got what we wanted out of the game – the guys as players were tested, and we as coaches now have a better idea of which positions will be up for grabs for Salt Lake City," said Canada coach Mike Shelley said. "This match was all about playing for places at the Junior World Rugby Trophy, and a number of players really put their hand up for a place in the starting fifteen." Among them he singled out Markham Irish's West, whose scintillating run opened the game's scoring. "Jon did exceptionally well for us at full-back, and there were other players who did a lot of really good things out there as some areas, such as the scrum, worked really well for us," he said. However, despite the performance by the forwards in the tight, Shelley identified areas of work at the set piece. "The line-out didn't function as we'd hoped, that was disappointing," he said. It wasn't the only thing which left both coaches and players frustrated. "It really wasn't the result we wanted or hoped for," Shelley said. "The lead changed hands a couple of times in the last 20 minutes and in the end we came out on the wrong end of a one-score game."

With Kenya's Elections Less than a Week Away, Concern Prepares for Potential Crisis
Posted on Tuesday, February 26th, 2013 at 8:43 amBy Ivy Ndiewo, Communication and Documentation Officer
With less than 10 days before the first election under Kenya's new constitution, fear and speculation are at an all-time high that what happened in 2008 could be repeated, even escalated. The results of the last general election in late 2007 were immediately disputed, and soon the nation exploded into weeks of political and ethnic violence, leaving with over 500,000 people displaced and more than 1,500 killed. I remember those grim days like they were yesterday.
The violence that erupted in 2008 caught the whole world off-guard, including the humanitarian community that then had to launch into an emergency response from scratch. Today, humanitarian organizations, including Concern Worldwide, are working with the UN's Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and Kenya's National Disaster Operations Center to set up contingency plans if civil unrest sweeps across the country as it did in 2008.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My child has been attending this school for several years now and just when I think Darnall will get it together, they go and add a middle school to the mix. The bullying that goes on is ridiculous! A middle school student broke another student's nose and he was suspended, not expelled! What a joke! To have K-5 on the same property with 6-8, it should be a no nonsense school! A lot staff members have children who attend this school and they abide by their own rules. Whether it showing up 10-20 min late for school everyday, and not being required to fill out a tardy slip. Or, the school nurse buying nachos for her niece in elementary when they are only allowed to be purchased by the middle school students. Thankfully, each year that we've attended this school, we have been fortunate enough to have a great teacher! It's the rest of the staff that needs to be cleansed. If I could do it all again, I would send my child to Hearst.
Both I and my child have had a great experience at Darnall. Their bilingual program (Spanish/English) is excellent. My child, as well as her classmates in 3rd grade, can read and write in both English and Spanish. The teachers are wonderful and very caring. The staff is friendly. She has learned a lot, including hands-on art, music and computer.
My son went there from k - 6 and I loved it...he is fluent in Spanish and English thanks to the great teachers he had....work at home is necessary but the teachers play a big role....I surtantlly recommend it..
The school needs to reform starting with administration. Too many family members of students as well as staff are employed at the school. Therefore, interest seems to focus on which ever adult has more family members employed at Darnall. Students tend to promote from 6th grade unprepared for the rigorous academics of middle school. One plus is the academic program called Prime Time. It really is something special
In the past few years Darnall has really changed. My kids went there and disappointed in leadership and accountability of the school and staff. Seems like there needs to be more training for staff and administrative support. No programs for enrichment of students. Needs improvement starting with the main director
My daughter started school there she is now in the 5th grade,my son is in 1st grade and I just I love this school the teachers are great never had a problem with my kids education!!!
I like this school alot , but i think that the school should enforce a school uniform policy for everyone.
I can only comment as a result of watching my son grow academically .He rates this school by voicing his opinion when he says'I love my school we have great teachers that make learning cool'.I have not heard about the availability of music;I am very interested and will check into this subject.In closing all I can say is thank you and keep up the great work.S.Cuadra
