PLAYERS: Claude Giroux, Milan Lucic, Ryan Miller, Lindy Ruff, Scott Hartnell, Jason Pominville, Tyler Ennis, Drew Stafford, Steve Ott, John Scott
TEAMS: Philadelphia Flyers, Buffalo Sabres, Boston Bruins, New York Rangers
TEAMS: Philadelphia Flyers, Buffalo Sabres, Boston Bruins, New York Rangers
Pat Kaleta (#36) puts a hit on Philadelphia captain Claude Giroux during Buffalo's 5-2 win over the Flyers. The message from the coaches and players in the Buffalo Sabres organization was the same throughout the offseason and during training camp: become a much tougher team to play against. Last season, much was made of the infamous Milan Lucic hit on Ryan Miller when no one on the Sabres truly came to the defense of their franchise goaltender. National and local pundits harshly criticized head coach Lindy Ruff and his players for them not doing anything about their star getting run over like that. A simple dropping of the gloves by an unlikely player on Sunday showed that the Sabres do, in fact, mean business when it comes to becoming more of a "sandpaper" team. After watching Flyers forward Scott Hartnell take a couple of, what the team viewed as, cheap shots on Jason Pominville and Tyler Ennis, Drew Stafford took a run at Hartnell which lead to a fight between the two. Stafford may not have gotten the absolute best of the Flyers grinder, who is much more experienced in fighting, but he sure enough held his own. Stafford coming to the aid of his teammates didn't go unnoticed by his head coach or teammates. "What Staff did was awesome," said Ruff. "Right away he addressed it; didn't wait for somebody else. He did a great job." New teammate Steve Ott, who the team acquired, along with John Scott, for this very reason back in July, said the he felt Stafford's decision helped change the momentum of the game in their favor. "The team stepped up from what Staff did," he said. Stafford said it's just him living up to the new mentality of the team. He wanted to prove that everyone on the roster, no matter what their role on the team is, has to stand up for one another. "If another player on the other team is going to take liberties, and run around — I mean it really shouldn't matter who it is — you got to stick in there for each other," Stafford said. Ruff said that although it's early in the season, what Stafford did is something that can bring the team closer together. Especially during a season as condensed as this. "Those are the types of things we talked about," said Ruff. "We finished our year on a better note with that last year, but to start the year like that…" The Sabres are sure to have their toughness challenged more and more as the season progresses, and they continue to play the likes of Boston, New York Rangers, and Philadelphia. Though, if Sunday was any indication, they will be up for it. *Photos courtesy Bill Wippert/NHLI via Getty Images* The post Stafford's Decision Proves Sabres Mean Business appeared first on Queen City Sports.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.(AP) — Don Zimmer, an icon in professional baseball for 66 years with strong ties to The Eagle-Tribune area died Wednesday. He was 83.
The former Red Sox manager, who was still working for the Tampa Bay Rays as a senior adviser, was the grandfather of Salem High softball legend Whitney (Mollica) Goldstein, now the head softball coach at WPI.
Zimmer also contributed a great deal to the Windham, N.H., baseball and softball community. He donated memorabilia, including signed photographs, baseballs and bats, to raise money for the town's baseball and softball program and Griffin Park. He also volunteered there.
Zimmer had been in a rehabilitation center in Florida since having seven hours of heart surgery in mid-April.
After starting as a minor league infielder in 1949, Zimmer went on to have one of the longest-lasting careers in baseball history.
Zimmer played for the only Brooklyn Dodgers team to win the World Series, played for the original New York Mets, nearly managed the Boston Red Sox to a championship in the 1970s and was Joe Torre's right-hand man with the New York Yankees' most recent dynasty.
Zimmer was easily recognizable for the big chaw that always seemed to be in his cheek, and his storytelling was a treat for anyone lucky enough to hear him.
Beloved by many, his No. 66 jersey had been worn recently by longtime Tampa Bay third base coach Tom Foley in tribute. The Rays hosted the Miami Marlins last night, and Foley was crying in the dugout.
Along the way, Zimmer played for Hall of Fame manager Casey Stengel and coached Derek Jeter — quite a span, by any major league measure.
It wasn't always easy, either. Early in his career, he was beaned by a fastball and doctors had to put metal screws in his head. Many years later, Boston pitcher Pedro Martinez tossed Zimmer to the ground during a fight between the Red Sox and Yankees at Fenway Park in the playoffs.
Zimmer spent time in a lot of uniforms. He played for the Dodgers, Mets, Chicago Cubs, Cincinnati and Washington. He managed San Diego, Boston, Texas and the Cubs.
"Probably the best baseball man I knew," Billy Connors, who coached under Zimmer on the Cubs, told The Associated Press on Wednesday night.
"We had a lot of great times. I loved listening to him every day," he said.

Carrie Underwood I Sold My Normal Person House for $372k – Carrie Underwood is ditching her last remaining tie to "American Idol" — the modest crib she bought in Tennessee to celebrate winning the crown in 2005. Now that Carrie's a bonafide country music multi-millionaire … she just sold off the 2,956-square-foot home in Franklin, TN (Google it … tons of celebs live there) for $372,500. The country superstar bought the 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath house for $384k … ya know BEFORE she sold over 15 million albums and married a pro hockey star. The house is pretty great — for a non-famous person — hardwood floors, spacious kitchen, garage, fireplace … all that normal house stuff. Carrie's far from homeless — she and husband Mike Fisher dropped $3.2 million on 400 acres of land in nearby Nashville back in 2011 to build their dream home. Read more at TMZ.com
Kelly Clarkson: Inside Her Special Bond With Fiance Brandon Blackstock's Kids – As Kelly Clarkson goes into 2013 planning her wedding to boyfriend of nine months Brandon Blackstock, the singer is also preparing for another life-changing milestone: she'll officially become the stepmother of her talent manager fiance's two children — Savannah, 11, and Seth, 7 — from a previous marriage. "Kelly pays special attention to them," an insider tells Us Weekly of Blackstock's kids with ex-wife Melissa. One way the "Stronger" songbird spoiled them? The trio went on a VIP tour of Disneyland last summer when Clarkson was on a break from filming ABC's Duets. Though she is intent on making a good impression on Savannah and Seth, Clarkson, 30, is "careful not to step on their mother's toes," says another insider, adding that American Idol's inaugural champ "definitely wants to have some of her own kids with Brandon." – Read more at US Magazine
Nicki Minaj Resolves: Resist Shoe Temptations in 2013 – Nicki Minaj welcomed 2013 at PURE Nightclub in Las Vegas on Monday. Just after 11:30 p.m. the "Starships" singer made her way through throngs of fans to the nightclub. Wearing a tight gold dress, gold sparkly platforms and a blonde wig, Minaj flaunted her physique down the red carpet. As for New Year's resolutions, the American Idol judge said she's not "buying anymore shoes," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. And that in 2013, she's looking forward to her "clothing line and working on her third album," the source adds. – Read more at People

Glee creator, Ryan Murphy, introduces his son Logan via twitter, "Thanks to everyone for the kind wishes. Logan is one week old and doing great. Happy new year!"
This Week's Cover: Inside the making (and remaking) of NBC's 'Smash' – New showrunner Joshua Safran (Gossip Girl) got the gig after selling NBC on his plan for the new Smash: More star power (Jennifer Hudson! Liza Minnelli!), more ambitious plotting, more original music (including tunes from a new Rent-esque project called Hit List), and absolutely no more scarves. Judging by the first three episodes, Safran has given Smash some much-needed mood stabilizers to eradicate its whiplash tone and character shifts, and the new players — like bad boy songwriter Jimmy (Jeremy Jordan), a love interest for Karen, and Broadway superstar Veronica Moore (guest star Hudson) — bring fresh energy to the storytelling. Basically, this season could be retitled Smash 2.0: Go Big or Go Home. "Some things you'll fail with because being audacious doesn't always fly," says NBC Entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt. "But I think we have to be audacious or we're dead." – Read more at Entertainment Weekly

A fan video of Adam arriving in Vietnam. There were reports that he was held inside the airport for a short time due to some visa issue but obviously got settled.
There were quiet numbers of fans welcoming him at Ho Chi Minh City:

SMASH season 2
ahh…They love him…So much love for him internationally…Thanks for posting the vid…After witnessing alot of hate filled comments to Adam and about him, this vid is very much appreciated…I hope ADam didn't read much of what was said about him, but I know he is used to crap on a daily basis…
Yes, it is always great to see all the love for Adam from his international fans. Looks like there was quite a mob there to greet him.
I wouldn't worry too much about Adam. Today the headline is "Russell Crowe agrees with Adam". News cycle #2 is well under way. :)
http://profile.yahoo.com/XDQP2Y46M5B3OHOKALDDGDHQCM Leandro
TMZ made a special episode with the greatest hits of 2012. Some of the folks "sang" Stronger and Home. The whole episode is worth watching because it's full of awesome VFTW singing!
I know but to see such venom being slung at him is really disheartening….Disagree with him sure but to see adults calling him filty names is disgusting..
Oh well…What's done is done. I'm coming out of my little bubble more and more everyday. I have people tell me all the time that I am too nice and the world is not like that..
There's no need to worry about Adam, he's a grown man who can handle any situation that comes up. The thing with Adam, it don't matter what he do, someone won't like it. He knows it and probably decided long ago to just do it his way.
I live about 30 minutes from Franklin, and TMZ is right. A TON of celebs live there! I once went to a Predators hockey game in Nashville and was in the same elevator as Carrie, Kellie Pickler, and Taylor Swift!
Really looking forward to seeing what they do with Smash this season. Hopefully they have fixed it. So much potential. Just hope that J-Hud doesn't take too much time away from Megan (sorry, I adore Megan and J-Hud.not so much)
I love all these pics of Adams arrival in Vietnam:
http://profile.yahoo.com/HWRPW434YQTROZ3J5E4BSLWEYM H.A.
I think you should not worry so much about the haters. There's a saying that goes "Haters make you more famous". If you step outside the Adam bubble and look at some of the superstar artists they get the same hate. Some of the biggest legends has had their share of controversy and with that comes haters. I would worry more if he was ignored all together.
Poor Russell. The media totally twisted his words.
Crowe agrees his Les Mis singing is poor: http://www.news.com.au/entertainment/movies/crowe-agrees-his-singing-not-the-bestthe/story-e6frfmvr-1226546695368?sv=1c6346141f16ff8e3700fddd2c493210#.UORQjdArxlp.twitter
Thanks for pictures…Those girls are stunning…wow
I love those pictures, Adam looked really happy and excited to be there.
The press amazes me something, because they are taking a part of Russell's statement and building this story around it. Although from the clips I have seen of Russell singing, I agree his singing is poor, that's not what he's saying in his statement.
ICU US Weekly and your angling for the Kelly/Brandon wedding exclusive pics if they decide to share.
For Chris Daughtry fans, the new People mag with the cover story on regular people who are now half the size they used to be, has a super cute spread on Chris and his family. Adorable pictures!
American Idol 12 Promo for StarWorld Asia
Vids from James' StageIt concert yesterday:
Cover of P!nk's Try:
We Would Have Loved You Anyway:
New song James wrote with James Michael and Blair Daly about suicide. I have no words, this is incredible, the lyrics, the message, the melody, everything. This song better make the new album!
http://twitter.com/Quu3 Q3
The American Idol Season 12 promo running in China, Indonesia and a couple other countries – stars Adam.
Here is the YT:
ETA: I was too slow! But def a fun promo.
James Durbin fans: this may be old news but he's written a song with Chris DeStefano called Touch Of Evil.
That's news me, thanks windmills!
That's cool and it makes sense to have Adam promote the new season since he's know there.
Loved it…He is so sweet and soooo handsome.
News to me too! Thanks, LOVE the name!
I feel the same way. If it's this good acoustically with just James on guitar, can you imagine this full band, electric guitars, full on hard rock track?!!
I don't see a numbers thread but supposedly HGTV is using Home to promo its new season. Home is now #7 and #54 on iTunes which combined push it to #3 on iTunes.
I'll be sad when this song runs its course. I don't think we'll see another smash like this for a LONG time. ;
Oh that is so cool that they have Adam to promote AI in Asia. And he was alone in that promo, no mentioned of the new judges:)
I have a feeling that Home will resurface, in it's original form, at some point, somewhere.
Heh. So Adam is the face of Idol for Asia? That's pretty cool. (Although, I'm guessing it could as easily be David Archuleta if he weren't otherwise occupied.)
I like how they made his winning moment the reaction when he found out he was in the final (over Danny).
Lest anyone think I'm being snarky, I'm not. I'm proud of Adam for making such an impact.
Great job on "Try" – James looks about twelve – see his littlest fan made a brief appearance. And good to see him writing – like the new song.
What have I missed? The new single is already released?

LOL I thought the same too. They seemed want to imply that he won season 8(over Gokey).
About Archie though, the kid is massively popular in the Philippines and Indonesia but if AI is being shown(and I'm not sure if it is) in Korea, Japan, Hongkong and vietnam, I understand why they chose Adam(even over Cook).
I love this cover of Try too. LOL if he did this sort of thing on AI he would've totally won S10, he kills at being a WGWG. I'm so glad that he didn't though, now he can be a WGWG only when he wants to.
WWLYA is the best song I've heard from him so far, he's turning into quite an amazing songwriter.
Great promo – his ease in front of the camera is a valuable asset. And happy to see he's achieving success in such an enormous market.
The perfect singer to promote this show in that market.
It doesn't mean much, since it is just people's opinion, but so far two reviewers have said that based on the first few episodes people are going to wish that more of the storyline is about Jennifer.
GGG def hasn't been released to radio in the US. Anyone can buy the album version of the song. I can't tell you what's going on Estonia, etc.
I know Home is doing well in Canada. How about the rest of the world?

Ha ha Scotty cracks me up!
I found this link most usefully.
Apparently South Africa us third after US and Canada in its appreciation for 'Home'.
It is #20 on i-tunes there.
(I would never have guessed).
AI is quite popular in SA. They finally launched the iTunes music store here just before Xmas.

About Archie though, the kid is massively popular in the Philippines and
Indonesia but if AI is being shown(and I'm not sure if it is) in Korea,
Japan, Hongkong and vietnam, I understand why they chose Adam(even over
They take advantage of any former Idol contestant who goes over there to help promote Idol. On Cook's last trip over — not the private one — he was billed partially as an "ambassador of Idol," and in every interview and appearance he was asked and talked about the new season. He even performed with Asian Idol winners to make that link between winners from both sides of the ocean.
But Adam is a bigger star in Asia overall than Archie or Cook. If they wanted Cook to do the promo, they would have gotten him to do it when he was over there. It don't take long to do a 30 second promo.
ICU US Weekly and your angling for the Kelly/Brandon wedding exclusive pics if they decide to share.
No joke! haha This is the 3rd or 4th time they've run the same story since the engagement just changing the order of quotes from "sources" and the headline.
According to Radar Online, there's going to be a little something with Kelly in the February issue of Cosmo.
If there's one person I don't ever want to know about their sex life, it would be Simon. Yuck.

He did media interviews and his performance was on television. Cook is popular enough over there to have some cache. It's not a competition.

I actually caught the TMZ people singing the 'hits' (it came on after a news report on Kris on Fox 11). It was kind of funny. The guy singing Home sounded like Phillip.
Thank you, I was afraid that missed something interesting.
No doubt Sassycatz. No doubt. Not sure why it has to be a competition. I'll give Adam China, mainly because none of the others have been there, AFAIK, but Archie is actually the most popular Idol in the Asian market. IMO. Cook is pretty popular in Singapore, Indonesia, Vietnam and the Phillipines too, and I hear Elliot is SERIOUSLY popular in Japan, which is a huge market. All three of those guys have done promo for Idol too on their trips over there. It's all good.
http://twitter.com/Miztig Miz
Nothing makes me feel ickier than the thought of hearing about Simon Cowell's sex life. Bleah
No…those are just downloads from the album version of those songs.
ETA – there may not actually be a separate single release for GGG. Sometimes there is and sometimes they just send the album version to radio. Depends on several factors, including whether the song needs a radio edit for length and/or content
Maybe he did one and they just haven't broadcast it yet (shrugs)

Okay, that's hilarious…I needed that smile after the day of after-Christmas clean up stress.:) Thanks Scotty and Miss Judy.:))
I am not a fan of Crowe but still..how terrible how they twisted his words..
Yeah, last year David Cook had a concert in Jakarta and had a duet with the 2012 winner of Indonesian idol !
and if I watch closely, just after that reaction when he found out he was in the finals… I can briefly see Terrence (Adam's future dancer in Glamnation and current tour) and Adam's ex in the audience.
cute American Idol promo… So who did the promo last year on Star World Asia ?
But they did the same with Adams tweets, took all the negative and ran with it, and ignored the positive, how he said it was visually impressive, great emotional acting, and praising at least 5 of the singers…..why should Russell be any different?
I have seen this Adam advert quite a few times, its usually shown in the evenings during Starworlds big evening show. They also used an Adam advert last year, and a David Archuleta one. They do show other Idol promos, usually with members of the public saying which Idol is their favourite, and saying starworld is their favourite channel, and they have Idol promos with the judges. But so far this year the only ex idol I've seen is Adam.
I don't remember ever seeing a David Cook advert for Idol on in HK, David archuleta yes, even if not an advert, he usually does a little advert for starworld whilst Idol is showing, and Adam each year since he was on. But never Cook or Eliot Yamin. Kris Allen did one a couple of years ago too..
Adam did some of it…..
Maybe it will come to me, but on first thought I can't come up with anything I want to know less than Simon Cowell Sex Secrets :O
I think they are understating it on Smash. It wasn't just big ugly scarves, it was Debra Messing's entire wardrobe early on that was a big brown / tan yawning downer mess, lol. Funny in that video clip, Kat's dress obviously was not meant to be jumped in.
So who did the promo last year on Star World Asia ?
Here's one of the promos that ran last on StarWorld last year with David Archuleta for AI S11: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=32McARJJm8Q
I believe this was taped either when he was in Hong Kong shooting his music video for Wait or perhaps in February of 2012 when he had a StarWorld Idol promo show in Singapore. Actually it was two shows but they were both on the same day, performed for two different audiences.

Watching a story about a stalker who terrorized one of the Idol contestants Jessica Sierra. The most terrifying story ever. These kids get in the public eye in front of millions of people, some of which are complete whack-jobs and then are left to their own devices without any bodyguards or gated communities that celebrities have. The show is on Investigation Discovery Channel.

BP Oil Spill Caused Sickness In Fish, Researchers Find
Published: Fri, Jul 11, 2014
ORLANDO, Fla., July 9 (Reuters) - Oil that matches the 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill in the Gulf of Mexico has been found in the bodies of sickened fish, according to a team of Florida scientists who studied the oil's chemical composition. "We matched up the oil in the livers and flesh with Deepwater Horizon like a fingerprint," lead researcher Steven Murawski, a professor at the University of South Florida's College of Marine Science in Tampa, told Reuters.
LeBron James' move could signify new NBA business model
Published: Fri, Jul 11, 2014
Franchises shedding payroll to free up money under the salary cap to sign free agents, players changing teams, short-term contracts, draft picks collected as assets, year-round coverage — this sounds a lot like the NFL. Except it isn't. It's the NBA. The past few weeks of craziness could be the new normal, at least until the next Collective Bargaining Agreement, USA Today reports. With LeBron James returning home to Cleveland, the Eastern Conference has been flipped on its proverbial head. The Cavaliers are now a contender and the Heat may be rebuilding with an aging Dwyane Wade and potentially no Chris Bosh.

Would You Pay $1,000 for a 'Proud Whopper' Wrapper?
Published: Wed, Jul 9, 2014
To mark San Francisco Pride, the city's annual gay pride celebration last month, one of the Burger King locations along the parade route released a "Proud Whopper," the fast food chain's same old signature sandwich, but with one new feature: It was served up in a rainbow-colored wrapper emblazoned on the front with the phrase "Introducing the Proud Whopper" and on the reverse side with the witty tag line "We are all the same inside," according to Yahoo Shine. A pretty cool idea, for sure. But cool enough for someone to dole out $1,000 to own one measly wrapper that came off a burger someone else ate? We'll find out soon enough. An eBay member, who uses the handle bigrockandrollstar, has put the wrapper up for sale on the auction site and started the bidding at an aggressive $1,000.

Restaurant Owner Sues Google for Sabotaging Weekend Sales
Published: Tue, Jul 8, 2014
The owner of the 'Serbian Crown' restaurant is taking Google to court. The eatery suffered a 75 percent drop in customers over weekends in early 2012, and for a long time, owner Rene Bertagna could not understand what was going on. Then, a regular diner mentioned Google Places had listed Serbian Crown as closed on weekends and Mondays, according to The Wire. Because of this incorrect listing, Bertagna's business suffered so much he had to lay off the staff and eventually close shop completely by April 2013, about a year after the incorrect Google Places listing went up. Serbian Crown, like most restaurants, was busiest on weekends. Located in a wealthy suburb and known for selling exotic meats (even lion) it had been successful for forty years. After the incorrect Google Places information was discovered, the owner hired an Internet consultant to adjust and take control of the listing, however the damage had already been done. Bertagna is claiming that he never used Google Maps, or even the Internet, so he did not make the initial change to the restaurant's hours. His lawsuit puts the blame solely on Google for allowing the listing to be "sabotaged" and not acting swiftly or strongly enough to undo the damage, The Wire reports.

Netflix is looking to pay someone to watch Netflix all day
Published: Mon, Jul 7, 2014
Ploughing through your new favourite series on Netflix is something you probably enjoy doing after a working day, but what if it was your working day? You see, Netflix has a fancy recommendation engine that suggests movies and shows you might like based on your prior viewing habits. To do that successfully, it needs information from a special group of humans that goes beyond the basics like genre and user rating, Engadget.com reports. "Taggers," as they're known, analyze Netflix content and feed the recommendation engine with more specific descriptors if, for example, a film is set in space or a cult classic. In short, these people get paid to watch TV all day, and Netflix is currently hiring a new tagger in the UK.
3 Female Justices Furious in New Contraceptive Ruling
Published: Thu, Jul 3, 2014
(Newser) – A divided Supreme Court today allowed, at least for now, an evangelical college in Illinois that objects to paying for contraceptives in its health plan to avoid filling out a government document that the college says would violate its religious beliefs. The justices said that Wheaton College does not have to fill out the contested form while its case is on appeal. Instead, it can write the Department of Health and Human Services declaring that it is a religious nonprofit organization and that it objects to emergency contraception. The college does provide coverage for other birth control.

A decade ago Troylyn "Troy" Ball; her husband, Charlie; and their three kids moved from Austin, Texas, to Asheville, North Carolina, to find a climate that would be help relieve her sons' constant allergies. There, they didn't just find new weather, they found a new life, according to Yahoo Shine.

Traveler Reviews
Reviewed by: Thomas F, August 2014
We had an overnight layover in Paris. This was the perfect tour for a quick taste of the city. The August night was dark enough to see a bright and different view of Paris. Our only problem was a lack of clear directions from the Underground to the tour office. Many of the area businesses had no clue where to send us even with a specific address. Add in a sudden downpour, and we were a bit soaked by the time we got their. Even so, the tour was an excellent choice for our travel plans.

Making the peacock cut
Date: June 3, 2010
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
The Longbeach Village Association recently culled its famous peacock flock from 60 birds to almost a dozen birds.
On Wednesday, June 2, one of the birds that made the cut and will live to see another year on Longboat Key stands peacefully in the shade just off Broadway. In the background, another peacock can be heard squawking in the distance.
The Town Commission voted to give Longbeach $2,400 for a second consecutive year to help manage its peacock population.
A peacock population that is too large is considered a nuisance for many Village residents, who complain of damaged yards, damaged porch screens and severe scratches to their cars.

Language and communication were seen by the researcher as fundamental to the child's 'right to participate' as 'agents of their own life' (General Comment No 7, 2005) as they engage in meaning-making with others, both at home and at school. The research was conducted as a Case Study within a Pre-Primary School over a three month period, with the lead-researcher involving the teachers as co-researchers. A Participatory Action Research methodology was used, within a praxeological conceptual framework. Parents and their young children (between the ages of 2 – 6 years) were participants in the research. Ways were explored to build 'bridges' to overcome perceived 'barriers' to the children's participation. Various data collection techniques were used, including the Persona Doll approach, the Mosaic Approach, Documentation of Learning and Learning Story Books. The results of the research were increased awareness of the value of inclusive practices that place a value on diversity and which actively support and promote the use of the mother tongue, as well as the learning of English as a second language. In the course of the research, it was seen as important for adults (parents or teachers) to support the learning of concepts in the mother tongue or in English by verbalizing for the child, while engaging in the process of meaning-making. The 'choice' to use English in preference over the mother tongue became apparent. Therefore the research methodology was seen as an important way to develop 'critical, reflective practice' amongst the teachers and to create partnerships with the parents. The aim was to strive towards 'phronesis' or wise practice, using as a 'lens' for critical reflection, the child's 'right to participation' (UNCRC General Comment No 12, 2009). 2014-02-01T00:00:00Z Adolescent self-regulated learning development in school : a psycho-educational perspective http://hdl.handle.net/10500/13865 Adolescent self-regulated learning development in school : a psycho-educational perspective Moseki, Monkie Muriel High school students need to be equipped with the competencies that may enable them to adapt to the increasing demands of learning in the school and beyond. To this end, the main research question of this study was, namely How can the self-regulated learning of adolescents be developed at high school? The aim of the study was to design, implement and evaluate a study skills programme for high school students. The social-cognitive theory, in particular the self-regulated Learning (SRL) theory, was used as the conceptual framework on which this study was based. An explanatory, sequential, mixed-methods research design was implemented. Purposeful sampling was used to select the participants in the three phases of the research project. Two classes of Grade 10-students (an experimental and a comparison group) from one school participated in the study, as follows: (i) in the first quantitative phase both classes wrote a pre-test, using the Learning and Strategies Inventory - High School Version (LASSI-HS); (ii) this was followed by a qualitative phase over 10 weeks. During this time a programme was implemented with the experimental group, once per week for 30 minutes (during school hours), and a 30 minute session in the afternoons. Individual work was also done with eight students, who were purposefully sampled. Between one and four sessions were held with each of the eight students. During the 10 weeks data were collected continuously by means of individual interviews with the eight students, as well as from their journals. In addition, the researcher collected data by means of field-notes. (iii) After the 10 weeks, the final quantitative phase involved both the experimental and the comparison groups in the writing of a post-test. The results indicated that the programme to enhance the students' goal-setting, self-monitoring and self-evaluation strategies was successful. The students also indicated an improvement in their attitudes, motivation, information-processing, and in selecting the main ideas in their study material. However, shortcomings were noted in certain areas. Based on the literature and the empirical findings of the study, an improved programme for the development of the adolescents' SRL in high school was designed. The programme recommended the early commencement of the programme, and that the two problem areas that were identified, namely time-management and motivational strategies be emphasised. 2013-11-01T00:00:00Z Riglyne vir 'n intervensieprogram vir leerders wat deur bendegeweld geteister word http://hdl.handle.net/10500/13842 Riglyne vir 'n intervensieprogram vir leerders wat deur bendegeweld geteister word Jeffries, Victor Vincent In hierdie studie is die aard en gevolge van bendegeweld onder kinders in die vroeë adolessente jare by bendegeteisterde skole in die Wes-Kaap ondersoek ten einde terapeutiese riglyne te bepaal vir leerders wat bendegeweld by die skool ervaar. Die verskynsel van bendegeweld is in die literatuur ondersoek. Die bio-ekologiese teorie van Urie Bronfenbrenner het as teoretiese grondslag vir die navorsing gedien, welke teorie die wedersydse invloed wat persone en hul omgewing op mekaar het, beskryf. Trauma by die vroeë adolessent en drie bestaande modelle vir traumaberading word bespreek, waarna 'n stel maatstawwe vir 'n traumaberadingsmodel uit die drie modelle sowel as die literatuur gekies word. Die empiriese navorsing is deur middel van sowel kwantitatiewe- as kwalitatiewe navorsingsmetodes gedoen. 'n Fokusgroepbespreking én onderhoude met onderwysers en skoolhoofde het plaasgevind om diepgaande inligting oor behoeftes ná voorvalle van bendegeweld te verkry. Twee in-diepte onderhoude is met persone wat kenners op die gebied van bendes en bendegeweld is, gevoer. Vervolgens is twee vraelyste, een vir leerders en een vir onderwysers en skoolhoofde, opgestel om vas te stel watter hulp hulle met betrekking tot 'n trauma-intervensieprogram benodig. Die studie het bevind dat bendegeweld leerders se akademiese prestasie sowel as hul emosionele en sosiale funksionering raak, terwyl dit gevoelens van magteloosheid en frustrasie by onderwysers en skoolhoofde veroorsaak. Die studie sluit af met 'n verskeidenheid aanbevelings oor die daarstel van terapeutiese riglyne vir opvoeders om die impak van bendegeweld op leerders by skole in bendegeteisterde gebiede te hanteer.; This study investigated the nature and effects of gang violence among children in the early adolescent stage of development at gang-infested schools in the Western Cape in order to identify therapeutic guidelines for learners who experience gang violence at school. The phenomenon of gang violence was explored in the literature study. The bioecosystems theory of Urie Bronfenbrenner was employed as the theoretical basis for the study, which describes the reciprocal influence between humans and their environment. Early adolescent trauma and three existing models for trauma counselling are discussed, followed by the selection of a set of criteria for a trauma counselling model based on the three models as well as the literature studied. The empirical research was carried out through both quantitative and qualitative research methodologies. A focus group discussion as well as interviews with educators and principals were conducted in order to obtain in-depth information on their needs after incidents of gang violence. Two in-depth interviews have been conducted with professionals who are experts in the domain of gangs and gang related violence. This led to the development of two questionnaires, one for learners and one for educators and principals, to determine what type of support they need in terms of a trauma intervention programme. The study found that gang violence severely affects learners' academic performance as well as their emotional and social functioning, while it creates feelings of frustration and powerlessness among teachers and principals. The study concludes by offering a range of recommendations for the formulation of therapeutic guidelines for educators to address the effects of gang violence on learners who attend schools in gang-infested areas.

Denkont-wikkeling is egter nie die enigste kognitiewe veranderlike wat prestasie in 'n taal kan beïnvloed nie. Verbale begrip en geheue is ook as vername kognitiewe verander-likes geïdentifiseer. Affektiewe veranderlikes soos motivering, selfkonsep en angs, kan ook met prestasie in Afrikaans as tweede taal in verband gebring word. 'n Empiriese ondersoek is uitgevoer waarby 174 hoërskoolleerders betrek is. Kognitiewe en affektiewe veranderlikes, asook leerstyl, is gemeet. Uit die empiriese ondersoek blyk dit dat selfkonsep, geheue, verbale begrip en motivering as die vernaamste veranderlikes beskou kan word wat met prestasie in Afrikaans as tweede taal verband hou. Denkontwikkeling is nie as 'n vername faktor geïdentifiseer nie. Die bevindinge in die literatuurstudie en die empiriese ondersoek is bespreek om ouers en onderwysers van riglyne te voorsien om prestasie in Afrikaans te verhoog.; The aim of the research focusses on the relationship between thought development (a cognitive variable) and achievement in Afrikaans as a second language. Besides thought development, verbal understanding and memory recollection are also identified as distinctive cognitive variables. Affective variables such as motivation, self-concept and anxiety could also relate to performance in Afrikaans as a second language. Empirical research was conducted amongst 174 High School learners. Cognitive variables, affective variables and learning styles were measured. Resulting from the empirical research, it appears that self-concept, memory recollection, verbal comprehension and motivation are the main variables that impact on the performance of Afrikaans as a second language. Thought process development was not identified as a main factor. Results from the literature study and the empirical research are discussed in order to assist parents and teachers with guidelines to increase achievement in Afrikaans as a second language.

In the early 1990s, Santa Clarita's city officials set out to establish a one-of-a-kind celebration of the area's cowboy roots in art, music, film, and beyond. The Cowboy Festival was unveiled in 1994 and every year since has showcased the city's rugged Old West heritage. These days, the annual weekend-long event draws more than 10,000 visitors through the doors at Melody Ranch Motion Picture Studio where Western fans young and old revel in the sights, sounds, and scenery of life decades ago, all without the risk of getting caught between two dueling horses.
Of course, for most of the year the City of Santa Clarita is as modern as any Los Angeles suburb. Civic leaders take advantage of the region's plentiful, free sunshine to stage a variety of outdoor gatherings for residents and visitors, including concerts and public art projects the whole community can get involved in.

I go to this place quite often, they always have something new and something old I've always wanted to try. Beware, you will leave there and spend more than you anticipated, but only because you end up loading up on more than what you came for. Enormous selection of locals, nationals and internationals. Great heavy beer section as well as lighter ones. They always seem to get limited releases and enough so as I get to try the last of them as I find out about them. Great glassware section too. The place is roomy, spacious and inviting; newer craftsmanship of the place doesnt make it feel dingy like other bottleshops. This place is something I drive up from Tacoma for on a regular basis.

So I need to apologize that I forgot to write this review earlier after I visited in June of this year (2010).
This place was amazing! Beers from all over the country although specializing in west coast beers. The selection is outstanding as well as the the employee that was working there, can't remember his name. He was showing me all around their small store giving me recommendations. When he heard me say my love for Older Viscosity he went into the cooler and came out with a dusty bottle of '08 Older Viscosity. AMAZING!
Wish we had a store dedicated to beer in Colorado that was like this one. This is a must stop beer store whenever you are in Washington.

Let me start off this review by saying that I used to live in Chicago, currently live in Cleveland, and have been to some of the best bottle shops the midwest has to offer. I grew up in Federal Way, and my parents still live there. I try to get back a few times a year, so needless to say, I was ecstatic when I found out that 99 bottles was opening.
And man oh man, this store does not dissappoint!!! Everytime I have visited, I have been blown away by the customer service and selection. Tons of singles of every style, including some very limited releases. Top that off with a knowledgable, friendly staff and youve got a true gem here folks. The store is clean, and well organized... something that i feel like a lot of stores miss the boat on. Not only that, but most of the beer is stored in beverage coolers to ensure freshness.
The owner, Craig, is a true BA, and will do whatever he can to make sure you get to experience some of the fine brews that the Pacific Northwest has to offer. If you are ever in the area, be sure to stop by... you will not be disappointed. Cheers!

99 Bottles is great. An attractive and clean store with knowledgeable and friendly staff and a great selection. If anything amazing and limited comes into the area, they WILL have it.
Prices are fair and they take great pride in selling you the best beer and keeping it in the best possible condition until it gets to you. Craig and Tiffany won't steer you wrong.
Be sure to follow them on Twitter (@99bottlesbeer) and on facebook to see in real time what they have going on and what may have just walked in the door and limited to only a few bottles available! If you say something like "sourpuss" at JUST the right time, you might just find yourself with some 08 Dissident!
If you are in the area and have never been here, stop by. It's only a few miles off of I-5.
Craig is AWESOME. Very outgoing, totally friendly. If you see him, be sure to flag him down and ask him some off the wall questions and I'm sure he'll be able to help you out just fine!
Love this place, so much in fact, that tonight I literally fought a blizzard that shut down the entire greater Seattle area to get up there and back. What takes 30 minutes, took nearly two hours. Seriously.
Thanks, 99 Bottles! Best bottle shop in Western Washington!

--I made the drive to 99 Bottles w/ a friend of mine while we both decided, somewhat spur of the moment, to sing 99 Bottles as we drove. Due to where we lived we got to -79 Bottles of Beer on the Walls after getting to Zero. This friend of mine had just decided to try to start drinking some different beers than the typical mass produced/marketed beers out there and we were both amazed by what this store had to offer.
Having just yesterday gone to Bottleworks I wasn't sure if 99 Bottles would live up to my expectations. All I can say is...WOW! The manager was very friendly and gladly answered any of our questions while making some great recommendations. The store it's self was very clean and well kept, door upon door of beer heaven. A very nice large variety and the store gets new types in weekly making it a place you can always check out to find new drinks.
Having gone here and being so thrilled w/ the place my friend and I decided to embark upon a mission. 1 Beer a day until we try all of the bottles. Only time will tell if we can keep true to this mission but just doing basic math it will take us over 3 years...so we may just try and sample our way as we go :) One thing is for sure....We will be making stops at least 2 a month to this great store
Edit: I'm updating my review after making another stop at 99 Bottles. This place is simply amazing. I can't stress this enough, if your in Washington OR just passing through....stop by 99 Bottles. They are always getting new stock in and just have great friendly staff who really care about what they do. There's no other place to buy beer for me...this is it. I've now taken a great long time friend and my fiancee here and they both are amazed at the place and will be repeat customers. Keep up the damn good work

Ah, how have I not yet left a review for the place that largely helped me become the beer enthusiast that I've become? better late than never!
Atmosphere - Walk in, and instantly find yourself surrounded by beer galore, as well as greeted by the staff. Has a very cool small store vibe to it, despite the massive array of brews available.
Quality - Nothing short of excellent. They always have a vast selection of A-class beers in stock at any given time. They're now even offering growler pours on select rotating brews! They also sell glassware and other cool beer-related items.
Service - Friendly, knowledgeable staff who are always able to answer questions and help you pick out a beer based on your tastes.
Selection - Where do I begin? Quite possibly the best in the entire state, and according to some other BA posters here, one of the best they've come across period. Tons of options from both the US and all over the world are available at any given time. So many seasonal/rotating/limited availability beers come in and go as well, that it's pretty much impossible to keep up on all of it. Luckily there are plenty of great beers they regularly keep in stock year round too.
Overall, any beer fanatic in the area who hasn't checked this place out yet isn't doing themselves a favor by holding out. It's quite nice living close to this place! :)

Even though I lived in the south sound area for about a year I was blessed to live so close to such an exceptional beer store.
Their selection is just absolutely awesome, they have almost everything you want and if you don't find it ask Craig or Tiffany and I'm sure they will find it for you. They also get a lot of the good rare stuff.
Price is reasonable if not fair, my only qualm is the fact I always overspend when I'm there!
Service/appearance is what really sets 99 apart from other beer stores and believe me, I've my share of beer stores. It is a very well upkept store with nice wood floors and lights dimmed enough that it isn't like walking into wal-mart but not so dark that you feel like you're in a cave. The beer itself is all stocked very nicely in a wall to wall cooler on one side and another wall of non-cooled beer in the far back (out of sunlight).
Another positive thing- they update their facebook feed religiously so if you follow them you will know exactly what they get in, especially with rare beers. This is how I got the bal aged yeti.
In all, Craig and Tiffany have created what I'd call quite possibility the best beer store and they are wonderful owners who will not hesitate to provide help if you ask.

Really an exceptional place -- we happened in there on a day when the master brewer from Rochefort was there, so we had a one dollar tasting that covered Rochefort 6, 8, and 10.
Everyone was friendly, and seemed very knowledgeable. Selection was quite genuinely exceptional. I saw several beers there that I have never seen anywhere else. Prices there are typically a little higher than other places, which is pretty typical for a specialty shop, but they can get away with it because they have such a difficult to beat selection.
It's a long way out of my way, so I won't be going back often, but I'll probably be back at some point.

This is hands down the best place in the South Sound to buy your beer. The selection is huge, always changing, and they are always quick to update their Facebook page to update customers on what's in stock. Beyond the great selection, the employees are always helpful and you can tell that these people love beer. The impression that they give is that they enjoy seeing people try great beer, and their Wednesday night beer tastings are a great example of that. Although I don't usually get growler fills, they have 10 drafts to choose from on a regular basis.
This place is worth a drive.

Was up in Washington over the weekend and made the stop by 99 Bottles on the way home, was a good decision. I was very happy with the selection and was able to pick up a few bottles that I can't get in Oregon, hell if I had some more cash could've scored quite a bit more. I thought the prices were reasonable and the lady behind the counter was able to answer any question I had and was very helpful. Additionally I found the selection of glasswear and apparel pretty cool. Overall I really liked this store, it is very clean and organized. They have a selection of probably around 1000 beers in all sizes. Wish I lived closer to this place or at least drove by it more, highly recomend it.

Author Joseph Ponterotto, Ph.D., professor of counseling, attempts to understand the mind of arguably the world's most famous chess player in his book A Psychobiography of Bobby Fischer (Charles C. Thomas Publisher Ltd, 2012).
This week, Fordham Conversations is about housing and how people from different generations go about buying a house. It turns out Baby Boomers have different attitudes towards home ownership than Millennials (the generation born between 1980 and 2000), and they're buying different types of houses. Jessica Lautz, director of member and consumer research at the National Association of Realtors, talks about a buyer and seller generational trends.
Fordham University was once a stomping ground for U.S. President's, war heroes and leaders in a number of prestigious fields.
On this week's show, Fordham Professor Maureen Tilley tells us all about Christmas traditions and the stories behind them, some you may know and some you may not. From the horrifying folkloric Krampus to the reason we celebrate on December 25, why we exchange presents, and why Santa lives in the North Pole. Dr. Tilley is a professor of theology and medieval studies.
This week's Fordham Conversations features Fordham's professor of Law Nestor Davidson. He's also Founder and Director of the Fordham Urban Law Center. We're discussing the legal questions that arise as cities begin to grow.
Arguably the Internet is one of the greatest tools for communication and it gives the user the ability to communicate and connect with others.

Leap Over a Wall: Earthy Spirituality for Everyday Christians (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 days
Of all the characters in the Bible, it is David who is most human. His life is lived on the "rough-edged actuality" of real life, and his relationship with God is an energetic one. Through the passions, the trials, and the lyrical poetry of this beloved figure, we gain powerful insights into the role of God in our own lives.
In this inspirational volume, Professor Eugene H. Peterson, translator of The Message, uses stories from David's epic life as vivid lessons in everyday faith and spirituality. Exploring David's experiences of friendship, grief, love, sin, and suffering, as well as sanctuary, beauty, and wilderness, he reawakens us to the enduring truths behind these beloved stories.
About the Author
Eugene H. Peterson, author of The Pastor and translator of The Message, is professor emeritus of spiritual theology at Regent College. He and his wife, Jan, live in Montana.
Praise for Leap Over a Wall: Earthy Spirituality for Everyday Christians…
"Eugene H. Peterson skillfully uses the David story to talk not about David, but about you and me. Leap Over A Wall is the human story in all its wonder and terror and pity."
-Richard J. Foster, author of Celebration of Discipline
"Leap Over A Wall brings King David's life so close to us, each event a devotional experience, each application an experience that walks us step by step to David's God and ours."
-Walter Wangerin Jr., author of Reliving the Passion
"The author brings the Old Testament world revealingly close to our own century, and he makes vivid the notion that God's purposes are worked out in the ordinariness of specific human lives."
-Publishers Weekly
"This retelling and reflection on the life of David, the most completely portrayed character in the Bible . . . depicts an epic figure with the foibles of modern men and women. . . . This everyman analysis brings new life to the stories."
-Washington Post
