I have IE 7 and Firefox 3 and religiously practice safe computing. What OS do you have? (XP or Vista.) How do you like IE 8? What configurations did you have to do to install it and make it run well?

Rob Ryan, New Orleans Saints Patch Up Porous Run Defense
The 2012 New Orleans Saints fielded one of the worst defenses in NFL history, especially against the run. New defensive coordinator Rob Ryan is charged with stitching together a much tougher unit.
Sieves: The Worst Run Defenses In NFL History
It's never been easier to run the ball in the NFL. Conversely, it's never been tougher to play run defense. The list of worst run defenses in NFL history is littered with recent teams, including the 2012 Saints and Colts.
The 5.0 Club: run defense in '11 lit up like hippies in '69
You already know that pass defenses in 2011 were lit up like hippies at Woodstock. Turns out things were not much better for run defenses: three teams in 2011 joined the exclusive and ignominious 5.0 club of worst run defenses ever: the Lions, Raiders and Bucs. So sad.

OK, I'll play along . . .
I am only 45, so I guess I'm the youngster in this alleged "Old Timers' Club." No AARP card yet. I have been a fan since the very early 1970s and I do think the original is something special. I'd like to point out one difference between Bond & Trek: Bond originated as literary fiction, Trek was born as a TV show. For Bond, even the Sean Connery portrayal was only "based on" the original, who was a character in a novel. James T. Kirk was never anything other than a TV character played by William Shatner. Therefore, the Trek actors are more closely connected to these parts than the actors who have played Bond.
Still, I don't have any problem with new, younger actors playing these parts. As has been mentioned here, they are playing younger versions of the characters. Also, as it turns out, they are probably "alternate timeline" versions. And besides, even Gene Roddenberry predicted and embraced the probability that this would happen. As long as JJ and company tell a good story that is true to the spirit of
Star Trek
, I'm totally OK with it.
. . . just an old-school Trekker getting by in a newfangled galaxy.

I just couldn't help myself when HSN debuted the Cricut Gypsy Sept 24th. I bought it thinking it would be great to be able to "design on the go". Unfortunately, I haven't even remembered to take it with me. It sits there with a smirk on it's face, knowing I may never get around to fully using it. What's up with that? I wanted it as much as a teenager wants his or her first kiss, and now I can't even remember to take it with me!
Another odd thing, I went back to playing with my Pazzles Inspiration cutter after I got the Gypsy. I had stopped for awhile, while I played with my new baby bug cutter (Cricut). Maybe I should send the Gypsy back or sell it on eBay. I think I may have just hit my crafting gadget overload.

Housekeeping Items
October 22 – Picture Retakes
October 24 – No School in afternoon
October 25 – No School
October 30 – Hot Lunch
October 31 – Halloween
The annual parade at Halloween with students moving around the school displaying their costumes will happen on Thursday, October 31at 12:30 p.m.
Students are asked not be dressed in their costumes for the morning (morning Early Education and kindergarten classes will be the exception) to allow for maximum use of instructional time. Students will be able to change into costumes during the lunch break from 12:00-12:25. Please simplify costumes to facilitate a quick change at lunch.
The following students are signed up to bring snacks for our Halloween celebration which will begin after recess (approximately 2:05PM):
Cheese and Crackers – Austin
Veggies and Dip – Amy
Fruit Platter – Shaye
Juice and Napkins – Sammy
Cookies or Cupcakes – Carter
Peek at the Week
Students showed what they knew on their Statistics and Probability test. This week we are diving into our next unit on whole numbers.
In this unit, your child will:
• Recognize and read numbers to 1 000 000.
• Read and write numbers in standard, expanded, and written forms.
• Use place value to represent numbers.
• Estimate sums and differences, and select and use estimation strategies to determine if his or her calculations are reasonable.
• Pose and solve problems using whole numbers.
Students are encouraged to use a variety of estimation strategies to add and subtract depending on situation and context. Calculating with number sense means that children look at the numbers and operations involved and choose the most efficient strategy. Ask your child to show you some of the different estimation strategies that he or she uses. Here's a suggestion for an activity you can do at home:
Newspaper Numbers
Take a page each from a newspaper and circle all the numbers in the articles and advertisements on that page. Then talk about the circled numbers. Which are estimates? Which are not? How can you tell?
Next, both of you choose one number and describe it to one another in terms of its number of millions, ten thousands, thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones only. Then challenge your child to find your secret number while you identify her or his number.
We will be starting with a quick review of 4-digit numbers before we take a look at numbers to 100 000 and numbers to 1 000 000.
Check out these websites for some extra practice with larger numbers:
Make the Largest Number You Can
Place Value to One Hundred Thousands
Language Arts
Thank-you parents for helping out your little historians by supplying them with information about their ancestory! We have had some wonderful conversations about our family's origins.
Over the next few weeks, I am very excited to introduce the Autobiography written project ( a three-paragraph written piece: past, present and future) which will lead to discussion of the wrap-up activities and final presentation. Students can look forward to signing up for their presentation date and time (presentations taking place in November). The rest of this month will be used to write the stories of our lives as well as complete various individual activities chosen by students in preparation for the final presentations. The final presentation must include the written portion but beyond that, students can choose the format and activity that will make up the 5- 10 minute (maximum) presentation. I will supply students with a handout of ideas: "100 Product Possibilities" and will be showing many sample projects from years past next week, but it's never too early to begin the brainstorming process. Over the years, students have made posters, brochures, movie commercials, dioramas, PowerPoints, demonstrations, puppet shows, SmileBox and Xtranormal movie makers, giant books, songs, plays and games. Students get to choose whichever way they feel they can best present themselves to the class. This project is a wonderful way to celebrate the unique and amazing individuals we all are!
Over the next few weeks will be busy with pre-writing activities for their Autobiography written piece. Please watch for activities that students will need your help to complete! Once we've webbed for each of the three paragraphs (past, present, future), we will begin drafting the written portion.
Social Studies
Following a quiz about Canada's provinces and territories and their capitals on Monday, a discussion will be held about what makes a region (what would you want to know about a place before picking up and moving there) and will be reviewed next week along with further exploration of Canada's regions and the creation of our passports as we get set to travel to our first destination: the Atlantic Region of Canada!

After first teasing that "Clerks 3" would be a movie, and then saying that it might be a book, the vacillating Kevin Smith has gone ahead an finished the damn thing as a screenplay. But wait, there's more....
"IT IS ACCOMPLISHED! First draft of CLERKS III is 137 pages," he tweeted today. "Plays like the EMPIRE STRIKES BACK of the Clerks trilogy."
We're not sure what that means, but Smith fans will doubtless be very excited for another outing with Dante and Randal (although it's worth noting that the entire enterprise rests on whether or not the latter decides to come back, we're inclined to think he will). Whether or not this actually gets made remains a whole other question of course.
Being a first draft, subsequent drafts will presumably jettison the fat to get it down to the lean 90-minutes that the previous instalments ran to....right? Because no one wants to see a two hour plus "Clerks" movie...do they? This is the same Smith whose hockey movie "Hit Somebody" went from being an already big, two movie project, into a six hour TV series so perhaps Brevity isn't a quality that's exercised in Smith's latter day pre-"retirement" era.
Will "Clerks 3" get made? We'd have to guess that it probably will. They're cheap, Harvey Weinstein and Kevin are contentious old pals, who will both be glad to make money together again, producing a "Clerks" movie is hardly a strain unless this suddenly has large-scale set-pieces. Plus the Weinsteins reacquired the "Clerks" rights a few years back so we suppose if they have a chance to exploit it again, they'll want to.
So... hooray? We didn't really need the second movie to be perfectly honest, so a third seems like it might lurch into overkill territory, but there are plenty of other folks who like these movies, so it's good news for them at least. [Deadline]
griffj17 | January 12, 2014 7:59 PM
just got done watching clerks 2 for the millionth time. I can't see how everyone didn't enjoy this movie. I still to this day laugh my ass off when they make fun of silence of the lambs. cannot wait for part 3. wish there is room for a Mallrats sequel.....
KS | May 28, 2013 11:51 AM
Wow, a lot of you are really butt-hurt over something. Regardless of you assholes who couldn't make a movie better than even Jersey Girl, I am excited for Clerks 3. I'm looking forward to seeing how Trevor Fehrman is used, I thought both him and Jeff Anderson have a unique connection not seen in many buddy comedies anymore, ala Now You Know. I've been a fan of Fehrman's since Cheats in 2002. I've been following Smith since Clerks was released and I'm glad his final directorial film will be Clerks 3.
On a final note, you assholes who have never made films, show some fucking respect for people who have. If you don't like his films, fuck off.
Michael | May 14, 2013 9:15 PM
Unfortunately Kevin Smith made a great first movie and has been living off that ever since. Chasing Amy was very good as was Red State but he has never really grown as a director creatively frozen in time to his first success. He was very good as an actor in "Catch and Release" maybe its time to change careers. If he makes Clerks 3 he might not have a choice.
Rob | May 14, 2013 9:30 AM
Clerks II was one of the worst movies I ever saw. It took everything that was cool about indie film in the 90s and reduced it to a steaming pile of goat shit. And "The Empire" comment shows how bad of a writer he has become with age. Empire is clearly a second act. This is the third Clerks. My fear is the comment suggests he's making more.
yer | May 13, 2013 9:21 PM
Does anyone really want to see Clerks 3? Does Kevin Smith have any fanboys left?
EB | May 13, 2013 9:04 PM
Clerks II was beyond abysmal. Perhaps he views it as his 'Phantom Menace'...
Ugh | May 13, 2013 6:51 PM
Sounds like classic Kevin Smith pandering. Using 'Star Wars' to get his geek fans hearts a flutter. Weird, since making an "Empire Strikes Back" analogy makes no sense UNLESS if he's willing to end 'Clerks III' on a dark, ambiguous note..... which he won't.

SYNNEX Corp. CEO Kevin Murai kicked off the general session at the distributor's 2013 National Conference in Greenville, S.C., with an update on the company and some statistics on what he calls "powerful drivers in today's market"-cloud, mobility, the software-defined data center, and Big Data and analytics.
"We've had a tremendous year so far," noted Murai, who specifically mentioned the acquisition of Supercom in Canada, a wholesale computer distributor that will provide SYNNEX with access to key parts of the market. That acquisition also added $400 million to the distributor's top line, making it one of the biggest IT distributors in Canada.
And with the pending acquisition of IBM's business process outsourcing business, the company will be further investing in its services business. Currently, SYNNEX has more than 10,000 people working in services around the world. When the acquisition is complete, it will have 45,000 services employees and revenues of more than $1.4 billion.
Murai's summary for partners? "We're on a roll and we're growing."
The CEO then talked about drivers in the market, offering a few statistics and advice for the audience:
Cloud computing
- One in seven dollars will spent in the public cloud by 2015.
- For 70 percent of start-up companies, cloud is a long-term strategy.
- 60 percent of information workers will interact with content apps via a mobile device by 2015.
Software-Defined Data Center
- $3.8 billion will be spent globally by 2016.
- The Immediate opportunity for partners is software-defined networks.
Big Data and Analytics
- 64 percent of organizations have or will invest in Big Data this year.
After talking about these opportunities, Murai took a page from SYNNEX's own playbook, cautioning resellers: "You can't be everything to everybody. Focus on specific markets or technologies you can be an expert in, which is what we do." The vertical markets in which SYNNEX has gone "narrow and deep" include government, healthcare, and retail, realizing double-digit growth across these business units.
On the subject of Windows XP, for which Microsoft ends support in April 2014, Murai noted that there are 100 million users still on the OS. "The natural progression would be to Windows 7," he said, "but you need to talk about the commercial benefits of Windows 8-it's faster, uses less resources [extended battery life], security is enhanced, and there's tight integration with cloud services like Office 365, SkyDrive, and Lync."
As with Windows 8, Murai advised partners to take today's new technologies-cloud, mobility, and enhanced data pipelines and Wi-Fi-and turn them into "useful, valuable solutions for customers. Help them be more successful by leveraging technology-taking advantage of technology."
Murai's takeaway message: "Take advantage of what's going on-there's lots of opportunity."

Tinefcon is an extract from a plant called Sphaeranthus Indicus, which can be used very successfully in psoriasis treatment. This remarkable plant has been used as a herbal supplement within alternative medicine for thousands of years; it has been used in the treatment of a whole host of health related issues, including, skin conditions, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes and much more.
Understanding the potential of this incredible plant as a psoriasis treatment was the reason for Tinefcon's initial creation. Extensive resources were put into research and development and after comprehensive testing we were able to develop a completely natural formula that is a fantastic remedy for successful psoriasis treatment. Not only this, but it is also great value and is very easy to use (as it comes in a convenient pill form).
Tinefcon cleverly works from the inside out and targets the particular immune cell, TNF-Alpha, that causes psoriasis. Successfully targeting this cell means Tinefcon helps to normalise the immune system, meaning the body will no longer suffer from psoriasis symptoms such as swelling, redness and much faster skin growth cycles.
In addition to this, unlike other psoriasis treatments and herbal supplements, Tinefcon has much lower risks of side effects and can be use used alongside other psoriasis remedies.
You can find all of them on our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/tinefcon
I love this product!! I've been using it for just over a year now with incredible results. However I do have two bottles left. I do plan to order more in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for your concern not wanting me to run out. I've even told people I know about this product also. Thanks again!! Jackie
I have been using Tinefcon for 3 weeks and I can't believe my psoriasis is nearly all gone. I have suffered for 5 years, been to skin specialist tried creams lotions nothing worked, and thought I was going to take it with me forever, I had it on my feet hands and nails so bad that at times I couldn't walk as my skin was peeling off in sheets. I was desperate for something to relieve the pain then I stumbled across Tinefcon I would recommend anyone with psoriasis to give it a try, not only does it work but it's natural so you're not harming yourself either. Thank you Tinefcon for giving me my health back. BarbaraLeave your comment
Eating healthily is an important aspect to psoriasis treatment and skincare in general, which is why it is so important to pick the right meals. Luckily, eating healthy doesn't need to be boring either. This simple Mexican inspired recipe is packed with nutrients and is very quick to make. The following recipe feeds 4:
Simply toss all the ingredients together and serve, it's as easy as that.
Avocado and oranges are both great for the skin which is why this recipe is ideal for those who are trying to manage and treat their psoriasis.Enjoy!!

The new leadership on the Vermilion County Board owe it to themselves and to the county's taxpayers to investigate the ongoing problems faced by a critical county agency.
County board members purchased a former retail site on Georgetown Road in 2005 to house the Vermilion County Emergency Management Agency.
Personnel in this department train hard to protect county residents from disasters, natural or manmade, and assist them if one should occur.
The Georgetown Road building was selected due to its storage capability, something missing in EMA's former offices in the basement of the Public Safety Building. But other problems cropped up almost right away.
Today, EMA officials say the structure lacks adequate electrical service, is prone to flooding and presents other problems for them to carry out their duties.
County officials can't just walk away, however, since they used federal grant money for the purchase. If they give up the site, they must repay the grant.
Why did county board members in 2005 think this building would fit the agency's needs?
How did this building become so inadequate so quickly? Were the original specifications different?
How much will it cost to remedy the issues on the site? Are there other, cheaper options available?
Those are the questions an inquiry by the new county board leadership — Republicans gained a majority on the board in November after roughly 20 years in the minority — need to answer. And those answers should be shared fully with the public.
EMA's role serves too important a purpose to ignore these problems. The sooner everyone knows the answers, the better iots personnel can do their duty safely and effectively.

During the AJ Derby twitter meltdown Vint shared this stat which left me curious. Patrick mentioned that he was going to expand on his tweet later this week, so I'll keep this general just to foster discussion.
Although Patrick's numbers date back only to 2004, Rivals offered commitment lists for the last decade, and I thought I'd use all of the lists that were available, resulting in five more 4-star recruits for a total of thirty-one since 2002. Six of the twenty-six players mentioned by Patrick are still on the roster and enrolled at Iowa. Of the additional five players, only Chris Felder -- an OL whose back couldn't hold up to the rigors of football any longer -- left the Iowa football team before graduating.
The list of recruits can be found here. I included the current group of verbal commitments at the bottom of the spreadsheet (not pictured) for no other reason than to give us something to smile about after seeing the departures listed. Feel free to correct anything that I got wrong in the comments below.
* - Five-star recruit
** - Not accepted

Council tax investigation reveals huge arrears
An investigation by ITV Tyne Tees has revealed how councils are racking up huge amounts of council tax arrears as more people struggle to pay the bills.
Freedom of information requests to almost every council in the region asking how much outstanding council tax they are chasing highlight the scale of the problem.The total amount outstanding from the councils who responded to our FOI requests is just over £116 million pounds.
The investigation covered councils in the North East, Cumbria and South of Scotland. A third of the total is from the last financial year. It comes as organisations who help people with debt have reported a huge rise in the number of people needing help.

My ginger beer travels have brought me to a lot of great places, but it's always nice returning to places where you used to live. One of those places for me is Providence, RI.
Providence is an interesting capital city in a state that has often been perceived as corrupt.
Once upon a time, Providence was down in the dumps before it was reborn with the forceful pushes of a former mayor who went to prison on RICO charges. The locals are a tight-knit community. And yes, there's the sense that every Rhodie knows they live in the smallest state, but makes up for it with an outsized personality. Newport is a fantastic summer spot that is well known amongst the well-heeled (often searching for the well-endowed),but the beaches along the Long Island Sound are the well-kept secret. Needless to say, I'm a fan of Rhode Island. Especially Providence.
One aspect of Providence seems to stand out above other New England cities: the food. Although the food has gotten much better in cities like Boston and Portland (two other former residences of this mildly annoying brand manager), the food in Providence is rooted in immigrants with Italian, Jewish and Portugese roots. All three ethnic groups know how to use a spice rack, and it's evident those skills have been passed on through generations. It also helps having Johnson & Wales in your backyard. If you're interested in Italian food while you're in Providence, be sure to visit Federal Hill. There are too many spots to count, and it's fun to simply walk up and down the main strip on a sunny weekend afternoon.
On the East Side (where Brown and RISD are located), it's worth stopping in the seafood restaurant Hemenway's. The chowder is incredible. There's bacon in there somewhere, and it makes it all worth while. The tuna sashimi is also fantabulous.
When you leave Hemenway's, a quick stroll down the street brings you to a great hangout, The Wild Colonial.
The Wild Colonial is a great spot to relax and have a few drinks with friends at any time of day or night. The beer list is solid all the way around. On top of a great beer list and chill atmosphere in a cavernous space, they make a proper Dark 'n Stormy with Barritt's and Gosling's rum. If memory serves correct (and a lot of time it doesn't), last winter one of the bartenders told me he likes to have a DnS after his shift. Whatever works.
Another spot worth while is the Renaissance Providence Hotel, which is owned by Marriott. I know. A Marriott. Sounds exciting, right? Well actually, when you check out the pictures you'll see why it's a destination. The hotel is a major reclamation project of a Masonic Temple that was left for dead when funds ran out during the Great Depression. It was only until 2007 when this hotel opened.
During all those decades in between, the Temple was vandalized and covered in spray paint. Instead of whitewashing this history, the hotel chose to keep pictures and portions of the graffiti alive in the hotel as well as in the stylish basement bar and restaurant, Temple Downtown. The food and the cocktails are creative and delicious, so it's worth the trek up the hill to this hotel, bar and restaurant.

He is not only #1 DT projected in the NFL draft, he is ranked the TOP prospect in college football by many.
As some of you might of read in other posts by Jazzy, some people calling him over hyped.
Like I said, the dominance he had over Khaled Holmes (C USC) who is regarded as one of the best inside offensive lineman in the country. His stock massively shot up to ESPN personnel.

DC Comics hires Homophobe to write Superman Comic
DC Comics just made a nasty mistake. They have hired anti-gay novelist Orson Scott Card to write two stories in Adventures of Superman. Now, maybe they are not aware about Mr. Card, but if not, here's a few things folks need to know.
- He used to and maybe still does sit as a board member of NOM begins with a two-part story written by popular.
- He has called advocated for the criminalization of homosexuality.
- And this fool said this about gay marriage:
"Regardless of law, marriage has only one definition, and any government that attempts to change it is my mortal enemy. I will act to destroy that government and bring it down, so it can be replaced with a government that will respect and support marriage…"This man is special and not in a good way. DC Comics should have been aware of this man and his views. Yes, you can different opinions, but when those views support discrimination that should be a blood red flag.
Not good, DC Comics.

Something old is new at The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe: It's Morada Restaurant
Photos and Report By Kelley Carlson
The space that was formerly a ballroom at The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe was recently converted into Morada, an elegant and sophisticated restaurant that still manages to be comfortably casual and welcoming. Vacationing families clad in jeans and T-shirts mingle with local residents gussied up for date night, dining on locally sourced California cuisine that's suitable for all tastes.
Guests who arrive through the main entrance walk across the polished hardwood floor of the bar and lounge, which is filled with glittering chandeliers, booths covered in Ikat fabric and its signature flower patterns, and picturesque landscape paintings.
On weekends, customers gather at the bar to devour burgers while watching sports on TV, which is hidden behind glass during the remainder of the week.
A wall with a built-in fireplace divides the bar from the equally grand main dining room. Photos of Rancho Santa Fe in its early days line the walls, a nostalgic tribute to the hotel's history.
Patrons are also welcome to indulge on Morada's fare in the adjacent living room. There, they can casually sip vintages from California wineries while lounging on large leather chairs in front of the crackling fireplace. It's quiet and intimate, enhanced by soft instrumental music and dim lighting.
But to really experience Morada, Executive Chef Todd Allison recommends terrace dining, where visitors can gaze across the sprawling, landscaped lawn toward the heart of "The Ranch." It's an idyllic spot to watch hot air balloons soar during sunset while sharing a bottle of wine, perhaps getting cozy by one of the fire pits.
"The patio has the best view in town," Allison said. "It's relaxing and very inviting."
Guests can augment their experience in a variety of ways – entrees, shared plates or a la carte. Allison takes a farm-to-table approach with his creations, using ingredients from his on-site garden, local farms and farmers markets throughout the region.
He recommends sharing a couple of starters, perhaps the pan-roasted baby octopus and the steamed black Carlsbad mussels, before moving on to main courses such as the grilled Colorado lamb loin chops and the local honey-glazed Chilean sea bass. Then top off the meal with a dark chocolate pot de crème.
Other menu items worth considering include the light Golden Beet Salad with slices of citrus, sprinkled with white balsamic vinegar and bits of creamy Humboldt Fog cheese; the flaky pan-roasted ocean trout over a slice of grilled green tomato, resting on a bed of toasted red quinoa with saffron glaze; seared Ahi tuna street tacos with avocado mousse and cilantro slaw inside crispy shells; and the coconut panna cotta with a top layer of tropical fruit salsa, served with shortbread cookies.
The children's menu is a bit more standard with items such as chicken Alfredo, pizzas, hamburgers, chicken fingers and mac 'n' cheese. While waiting for their food, kids can tap into their creative side by playing with complimentary neon-colored Wikki Stix, made of yarn and non toxic wax.
Morada is also open for breakfast and lunch, offering dishes that range from bananas foster French toast and Dungeness crab eggs benedict to the ginger BBQ Mary's free-range chicken sandwich and blackened Alaskan salmon.
Reservations are recommended at the restaurant, especially on weekends, Allison noted. Much of the "rush" occurs when there is live entertainment – usually flamenco-style background music – from 6 to 9 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.

A math fair can be created in various different ways - it can be very similar to a science fair or different depending on your style. The following will explain how I (in collaboration with many others) decided to organize the math fair at Wolfville Junior High School.
1. If you do not have a classroom of your own and you would like to organize a math fair, talk to various teachers in a school and see if one would be willing to work with you to create a math fair (as I did). If you are a teacher then of course your classroom would be the perfect opportunity to start.
2. Talk to the students to see what they think about a math fair. If they really don't seem into then it may be a struggle. There are various ways to go about finding projects for the fair. You could assign everyone to do a project and allow those who would like to go in the math fair put their project in it (as was the way we designed the math fair). Or it could be more similar to a science fair where it is an independent project (which they could get extra credit for if you so choose). We found that by giving everyone a project it allowed the teacher to assign class time for the students to work on their projects and students seemed really interested in putting their projects in the fair (about 1/3 - 1/2 of the project were in the fair). If you would like other classes involved in the fair I would suggest talking to other teachers and seeing if they would be willing to talk to their students about projects. I wouldn't suggest trying to organize too many projects on your own without the math teachers of the students being involved.
3. If you are a teacher and taking this on for your school make sure that you have other teachers who are willing to help organize with you, as it is a big job. Also try to see if you can find some volunteers (parents, other teachers, support staff) who can help the day of the fair (and the day before for set-up) as these will be the most hectic days.
5. Allow your students plenty of time to work on their projects (this doesn't necessarily have to be in the classroom - though giving them a little time in the classroom does help as they can have some guidance from a teacher).
6. Set a date for the math fair as soon as you can so that students can create a timeline for their project. As well, not only will you want to set a date but also a location. A gymnasium or library (depending on space and number of projects) usually will work out well. Book it for the day and also remember that you need your students to set up - so this can either be the afternoon before or the morning of. Make sure you have tables or desks for students to place their projects on (and wall-space if this is needed).
7. If this is something you would like judged try to set up the judging early to ensure that people will be available (maybe talk to former math teachers or administration throughout the school). For our math fair we asked the judges to find their top 10 projects by using the judging sheet. Then we discussed with them their choices to narrow it down to a top three.
8. Apply for any funding if available. The teacher who I was organizing the math fair will found out about an enrichment grant and applied for some funding for the math fair for resources (books, kits, etc.) and funding to help pay for honorariums and prizes. This funding not only helped out with the organizing of the fair (by giving us a lot more resources) but a lot of the resources could be used in the classroom after the math fair which would continue to help out the students in their learning.
9. Make sure you create posters for the math fair so that students and teachers throughout the school know about the fair. Invite other math teachers to bring their students to the fair. For our math fair since all math teachers were in agreeance to allow their students to attend we created a schedule of what classes were coming when and gave the schedule to all math teachers. This schedule was created especially so that we only had at most two classes at a time - allowing students the room to wander and interact with the projects (since some classes had doubles of math that day and didn't need to be there for both). As for our math fair you can have a student create posters for the math fair - which gives them the opportunity to be creative. Also make sure to write-up a brief note about the fair in a newsletter for your school so that other teachers and parents know about this project that you are working on with your students.
10. Have lots of resources for your students to come up with ideas for their project. A lot of students may have trouble coming up with an idea for a math fair project (especially more so than a science fair project) as most of them will not have heard of a math fair or know what types of projects they can do. For our math fair we made sure that students realized that they didn't have to be as in depth as a science fair project would normally be (with materials, procedures, etc. making it an experiment). We made sure students realized that the projects could be interactive so that when onlookers came by they could actually participate if they so chose. See the Resources, Project Ideas, and Photo Gallery sections for ideas of projects that students worked on for this math fair.
11. Find out the schedule of math classes in your school and invite them to attend the fair. We made sure we set up the timetable before hand so that no more than 2-3 classes were at the fair at a time, due to space. This of course would depend on your space and the number of projects as to how many classes you would want in there at a time. Since a lot of our projects were interactive the students had lots to see for an entire class period (of 40-45 minutes).
12. Set a deadline for the projects before the fair (I suggest a couple days) to ensure that you know of the number of projects that are definitely finished and ready to go in the fair.
13. Have students bring in their projects for the fair and set-up (I suggest the afternoon before the fair). Have the tables set-up exactly the way you want before students start setting up their projects, so that it will be a much smoother process.
14. We labeled each project with a number and then wrote down the project title and names to go with the number. Then we created comment forms (with a place for project number and comment) for students the day of the fair to fill out with viewing the projects. Each student entering the fair was asked to give positive comments on 5 of the projects that they saw and then these comments would be passed onto the presenters. I suggest having someone there all day sorting through the comments to ensure that they are ok and that they are grouped according to project number. Do not do this step if you do not have a lot of help as this can take up a lot of time
15. Throughout the fair take pictures of projects and the fair itself to post after the fair is over.
16. Leave time at the end of the day to take down the projects. Have students help to take down tables and put them back where they belong.
17. Give yourself a pat on the back on a job well done. It's a lot of work but worth every effort when you see the result.

Tea Party Express, the nation's largest Tea Party Political Action Committee, announces their endorsement of Congressman Steve Daines for U.S. Senate.
The announcement came at the Grant Creek Inn in Missoula this morning. Montana's winning candidate will help determine party control of the U.S. Senate, raising the profile of the race. Speakers at the event say they're hoping Daines will fill one of the six seats needed for Republicans to take control.
Tea Party Express Chairwoman, Amy Kremer, said of the race, "we need to send more conservatives to the U.S. Senate and we believe that he's the candidate to do that."Daines said, "I'm grateful for this support, this endorsement, as we're working to change the way Washington, D.C. operates because it's very, very broken right now."
Lieutenant Governor John Walsh, former Lieutenant Governor John Bohlinger, and Dirk Adams are running on the Democratic ticket.
Tea Party Express officials also announced the endorsement in Kalispell this afternoon.

Absence didn't affect Inkigayo Mutizen Triple Crown victoryFebruary 28, 2010
Yes..they were absent. I guess they're too busy preparing for the Encore concerts but nonetheless, their absence on this week's SBS Inkigayo has no effect on their Triple Crown win. The only thing we missed from the show is their "Oh!" performance. The Triple Crown win means that they will not be eligible for the next mutizen award. On today's Inki, T-ara made their comeback with their new songs, "내가 너무 아파(I'm so hurt)" and "너 때문에 미쳐 (Go Crazy Because of You)" while Kara are back with "Lupin". Here's the Take 7 and mutizen song result announcement for today's Inki. I know, there are faces you don't like in that video. Well, just ignore them. So, just look at Sulli…lol.
Some revelations on Black Soshis conceptFebruary 28, 2010
Girls' Generation have finally shed some light on their Black Soshis concept during an interview. Although nothing much was said in detail on the concept so far, the girls revealed that the new concept will highlight their hidden sexy side.
In the "Oh!" MV, which was released on January 27th, netizens were curious about the girls in black who appeared at the end of the MV. To clear things up, SM Entertainment confirmed hours later that it was a teaser for their upcoming concept. The girls in black were given the name Black Soshis by fans ever since.
On the concept, Girls' Generation further stated that the Black Soshis will be doing the exact opposite of what the 'bright' Soshis. In "Oh!", the girls were dongsaengs calling out to oppas but for the Black Soshis, they will be singing as unnies instead. They further revealed that the filming of the new MV has been completed.
When asked about the tough competition from other girl groups, the girls commented, "We are happy to see the return of many brilliant performances of girl groups. We are very excited at the thought of sharing the stage with the others".
Girls' Generation are currently having their encore concert (27th and 28th February) in Olympic Park Fencing Stadium in Seoul to thank their fans, Sones for the continuous love and support that they have received. They had their first Asia Concert Tour in Seoul on December 19th and 20th last year and they will be continuing their tour in Shanghai in April and Bangkok in May.

4th Music Bank K-Chart win for the golden girlsFebruary 26, 2010
So, who are the golden girls? It's none other than Girls' Generation and it's their 4th consecutive win on KBS Music Bank for "Oh!". Earlier this week, the album sales of Girls' Generation's 2nd Album "Oh!" on Hanteo Information System have exceeded 100,000 copies.
The golden top and white hot pants the girls put on for today is their 11th outfit for "Oh!" so far. It would be nice if there's a comedian who would do a parody of "Oh!" and the outfits they're wearing. I guess Kim Shin Young would be interested.
On today's Music Bank, Kara showcased their comeback performances of "Umbrella" and "Lupin", which is the title track of their new mini album, "Lupin". Among the artists who were featured on today's show were Girls' Generation, Kara, 2AM, Jo Hye Ryun, U-Kiss, CN Blue, T-ara, ZE:A, 4Men, AB Avenue, Park Hyun Bin, Trax and many more.
For the fourth consecutive weeks, Girls' Generation took the top spot with more than 20,000 points. Today, they managed to secure 20,549 points, followed by 2AM with 13,073 points and CN Blue with 7,443 points. Can they secure their 5th win next week? It will be a tough fight as we can expect Kara to be in the top 3 on next week's KBS Music Bank. So stay tune!
"Oh!" performance

The winner is……
Sunny has no kissing experienceFebruary 21, 2010
When it comes to kissing, Sunny is not the right person to ask for advice. On MBC's Quiz That Changes The World, Sunny revealed that she has no experience in kissing. During the show which was aired on February 20th, MC Lee Hwijae asked "When guys want to kiss, doesn't the girls usually notice?" In response, Sunny replied, "To tell the truth, I haven't actually experienced having a real proper relationship. I haven't kissed yet either." Don't get the wrong idea. When she mentioned kiss, she meant the romantic type, not the friendly type. I believe she kissed her members, parents and also, Kyungsan!..haha
I believe after this, fanboys will be lining up in front of SNSD's dorm to provide a free kissing course for Sunny…lol…just kidding..

One more to go for Inkigayo Triple CrownFebruary 21, 2010
After taking the no.1 spot for 3 weeks in a row on KBS Music Bank, Girls' Generation maintained their domination on SBS Inkigayo with their second Mutizen Award for Kenzie's masterpiece, "Oh!".
The second Mutizen Award means that the girls are only 1 win away from grabbing the triple crown on Inkigayo. On today's show, Girls' Generation performed "Show Show Show" and "Oh!". Can Girls' Generation grab their third Mutizen Award next week? I certainly hope they can! Here are the vids for their performances today. Enjoy!
'Show Show Show'
SNSD on Music Core 200th Episode SpecialFebruary 20, 2010
The title speaks for itself. Enjoy!
Third victory for 'Oh!' on Music BankFebruary 20, 2010
Girls' Generation mantained their impressive run on KBS Music Bank K-Chart with 3rd consecutive win. Not only did they hold on to the no.1 spot on the weekly music show, the girls scored more than 20,000 points for all the 3 victories they secured.
Besides the victory, the girls continued their trend of wearing different outfits for "Oh!" performance on KBS Music Bank, MBC Show!Music Core and SBS Inkigayo. For the record, the grey shirt with orange shorts that the 9 girls wore on Music Bank today was the 10th outfit they have put on for "Oh! so far. So, which of the outfits looks best on them? We are definitely having a hard time to decide as they look good whatever they are wearing.
On today's Music Bank, Girls' Generation took the first place with 20,284 points, 2AM in second place with 15,191 and CN Blue in third with 7,991. Girls' Generation's beautiful ballad, "Star Star Star" climbed 3 places up to 7th this week on the K-Chart. Here are their performances on today's Music Bank.
By the way, Maknae's on-stage accident topped the search list on Naver and Daum yesterday. Honestly, I could hear her scream. Thank God, she kept her balance. Maybe she's too nervous as 'hubby' was watching…lol. Well, wear flat shoes next time, girls.
SNSD won mutizen on SBS Inkigayo with "Oh!"February 14, 2010
As reported a few days ago, SNSD won their mutizen on SBS Inkigayo with "Oh!". It's now confirmed! The girls wished their fans/viewers a happy new year and they also revealed their new year resolutions. The tall girls hope they won't grow any taller anymore this year. Lol….. Here are the vids of their performance on Inkigayo today! Enjoy!

Well it is 2007 all over again and there will be a new starting QB come Sunday.
I have scrapped that part 2 thing but I will give my opinion on the release.
I have to agree with this release on a couple of reasons.
- Money- They were set to pay David 8 million big ones. Why pay for a QB that is average at best when you have a potential franchise QB and one that smoked the others during the offseason? They have the money but that is 8 Million that can go elsewhere. Upgrade the O-Line, sign another receiver like TO (yes I want to see this), extend a players contract.
- Excitement- Going into the last couple of seasons, it became predictable. It would be mostly running and maybe a few passing plays. Now we have two QB's that have the arm strength to make deep plays. David looked like he was going to give himself a hernia throwing that Hail Mary pass. Gabbert can make accurate passes for the most part, Luke has better arm strength and opens the book up.
- Moving on- David Garrard was not getting any better. The Jaguars moved up six spots to get Gabbert. Doesn't that pretty much tell you that it was either put up or shut up this offseason for Garrard? The future is now and I believe that Luke McCown gives us a better shot than Garrard because we can open up those pages that were previously bookmarked "No Can Use".
This is my opinion and I think this season just got better.

The family of Ireland Nugent will have a lot more help paying her bills now.
A $100,000 trust fund setup for her care will be turned over to her parents Tuesday, but not after a little drama.
Trinity Presbyterian Church, which initially set up the fund, decided to officially release the money. That decision came after Ireland's grandfather criticized the church pastor for holding onto the money too long.
The church plans to give Ireland's mother the money sometime Tuesday morning.
Ireland lost both her feet in a tragic lawnmower accident in Palm Harbor two months ago.
She's scheduled to receive new prosthetic legs in about a week.
The church said it was sorting through legal issues with the trusts, and that's why the money was delayed. The pastor issued the following statement:
"I am saddened that the Nugent family has chosen to attack myself and the church that has done so much to support them. In Mid-May, the Nugent's created, without any input from Trinity, two trusts. The first trust is a special needs trust to support Ireland. The second trust is a family trust that has been created to assist the needs of the Nugent family excluding Ireland.
I received a copy of these two trusts documents on Wednesday, June 5th. Because we were not included in the creation of these two trust, [sic] we had several legal questions. To help answer these questions, I participated in conference call with their attorney also on June 5th.
At the conclusion of that call, I called a special meeting of our session to vote on dispersing the funds per the families request for Sunday, June 9th. Our session, however, had additional questions and asked if they could read the trust documents before voting to fully fund the trusts. They did vote, however, to partially fund the family trust in order that any immediate needs of the Nugents could be addressed.
The Ireland Trust already had money in it from other fund raisers, insuring that Ireland's immediate needs were being taken care of while we did our homework. To suggest that this is about power or control of the Nugents or the money given is simply ludicrous. Like it or not, the church is legaly [sic] liable to fund these trust according to donor intent, not the Nugent's wishes. We need to be able to look people in the eye and tell them, if you gave to Ireland, then your money went to the Ireland Nugent Trust. If you gave to the family, then your money went to them.
Here is what I can tell you, every penny given has been sitting in a separate account and will be, at the appropriate time (if it has not already been done) given to the Nugents. Many members of Trinity Presbyterian Church have worked countless hours in support of the Nugent family. It is so sad that their family chose to slander us and tarnish so much good work that will go to help Ireland and the Nugent family in the future."

Discussion in 'Great Skate Debate' started by Maofan7, Jun 30, 2012.
New article by Monica Friedlander in The Examiner. Reads:-
Wow. This is really great.
I did? I wouldn't say everyone; I wish she explained to me why someone got a 5.7 vs. a 5.9 or a 6.0 for that matter. There were just as many people upset that skater A won over skater B. Talk about clear as mud.
This "article" is a joke.
wow. I'm no fan of Speedy, but this chick is a credulous hack.
MERLYN. Well, she does do magic out there. But uh. Do we really need another speeding pass down WUZROBBED highway?
No kidding!
Not an objective article. Blaming the IJS for the demise of shows is pretty simplistic when there are a number of other factors.
This "everyone understood 6.0" is just a crock.
There were scandals and I missed them? I feel deprived.
The rest of it wasn't any better, and at times it was downright offensive. Merlyn Davis, ha, and she got other things wrong, too.
Yes I thought that too. She is pretty dumb if she thinks that was the scandal ridden event of all time.
Hmmm... the article gave the impression:
1) She clearly HAATES Cinquanta.
2) The 6.0 system is better.
3) The judges are corrupt.
4) You can fall four times and win by 30 points.
5) Cinquanta killed figure skating.
IMO... shrugs.... I like figure skating and will continue watching.
ETA: Ah I see in the linked article she actually does have them. Does that mean I have to read it now?
Hm.... How do you think, if Chan will be out of the podium at next year WCh and D-W will win all competitions in next and Olympic season, will Monica Friedlander LOVE Speedy and new system?
Its look not like war against Speedy, but against Canadina skaters
Reading this is like reading
Yes, I was wondering too.
Scandal was what made figure skating so popular in the 90's (Tonya/Nancy). On the pro side there was Usova/Platov vs. Grischuk/Zhulin. I don't think the general public cared about the scoring system; the common perception was it was all done by bloc voting, I think that is still the perception.
Other than Morozov what is there to talk about nowadays? Coach firings and platinum medals? That can't compete with sex and naked ambition for the public's attention.
She is nuts; there was nothing scandalous about the wins by Chan and Virtue & Moir... While I do miss some things about 6.0, COP is a much better system to evaluate the skater's esp in terms of technical content, artistry will always be more subjective and thus prone to manipulation, as beauty is often in the eye and nationality of the beholder. There were blatant biases under 6.0, there are still some biases under cop, no system is perfect, but now at least skaters have a better idea of what they need to work on, and difficulty within a program now gets rewarded! I prefer COP, even if you see same elements over and over again, that is the choice of the skater's they can choose to train and skate for points to be competitive, or they can choose to simply entertain and be popular with fans, however the best skater's will manage to do both equally well, while being consistent during the entire competition, not just 1 part of it...
Now while I am not a fan of speedy, and his ole boys club remaining in control, it is up to the people in the sport to stand up against those who use corruption, bribery; to stop folks going along just to get along, and to opt for better training and accountability for officials, until that happens, it won't matter what scoring system is being used, and/or who is running the show, abuse of power sometimes runs both from the bottom and from the top, and can be found from the prenovice comp at the local rink, to senior international ranks, etc.. Humans are flawed and figure skating is not up to a clock, it is up to all those involved, both expert and casual observers and getting everyone, esp those invested in the outcome, to agree on what happened and why will never be easy...
Huh? One may not have fully agreed with some marks here and there, but I think this is the only person around who thought this worlds was in any way scandalous - and certainly not "one of the most scandal-ridden".
I mean, there wasn't a single tapping foot spotted anywhere, as far as I know.
I had to read the first line multiple times as I kept thinking I was misreading about 2012 Worlds being scandal ridden?? Not agreeing with the winner of an event is a given in this sport. It´s subjective.
I personally find IJS more helpful in seeing what the judges were thinking. 6.0 system gave us very little in way of understanding what they were thinking other then their overall placement and made it much easier for judges to ignore weaknesses in skaters. I find those that whine about the demise of that old system actually miss the fact that the skaters they prefer can no longer get away with showing up, they actually need to be a well balanced skater now.
I googled her name out and found she has a blog with the mission of saving skating. It's a joke. I glanced over her interview with Johnny Weir and at how she (and he, read his responses) think he´s the answer to restoring figure skating to its glory. It may have already been discussed elsewhere, I don't make a habit of entering Weir threads, so apologies if it's rehashing old news but it might give us a taste of what's to come (Lady Gaga version of Carmen )
I won´t give the link as I won't help this hack get hits. If anyone is interested there is enough info to google it.
Oh, please, give us the link. We are keen to find out how to save the skating!
Hughes got mostly 5.7s for presentation in sp at slc. Kwan got all 5.9. In Torino, Cohen got 31.4 for pcs, shiz got 30.09.
Now that cop has done us the tremendous favor of telling us at each comp that the judges are looking for exactly what we always knew they were looking for: skating skills, interpretation, choreo, transitions, You have no figgin clue in the world why Kwan got 5.9 to Hughes 5.7, but you understand perfectly exactly why cohen got 31.4 to shiz's 30.09. Ok,if you say so.
Yes,and the kookie author of this rant would agree with you... She did say that the cheating under 6.0, most notably the slc pairs event, caused an uproar forcing speedy to act. I missed the part where she said njs caused cheating, or that all judges cheated. She seemed to me to be saying, speedy and his little clique cheat, they cheated under 6.0 and they cheat under cop,but now they have the added benefit of additional cover. Don't agree with her that 12 worlds was the worst. I think the blatant cheating in slc is pretty hard to top. And let's be clear here, we know exactly who cheated in slc, and not only were they not punished, but one of them is actually the top pick for the next isu president, so.....
From the comments section underneath the article, posted by the father of a former U.S. National Team member:
To which Monica Friedlander replied:
His response:
The author may be nuts, but this has to be one of the most redundant statements I've seen you make yet.
I am fed up about arguing which judging system is better. I personally believe that IJS is better, but that's my opinion and if someone has different opinion, that's fine with me. After all, the judges has the chance to help someone up or kick someone down in both systems.
However, I do agree with the bits she wrote about Speedy staying in his chair longer. If there are some rules, why there should be suddenly exception for him?
He was probably advised by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Three years ago Bloomberg arbitrarily overturned a term limits law in order to allow himself to run for (and buy) a third term. Bullies often get their way.
The term extension did not come from Mr. Chinquanta. The term extension also included many council members. Russia strongly recommended and lobbyed for the extension. They did not want to deal with a whole new cast of characters while orgainizing the Olympics.
The extension had a strong majority, but the term limit extension was only passed by one vote due to the ISU constitution requiring a 2/3 vote for constitutional matters. There was nothing arbitray. Each ISU member federation had votes of equal weight. It was debated by the Congress and each Federation in attendance voted.
Gailhaguet leading the ISU during the Sochi Olympics would have been rich.
Me too! I spent a good 5 minutes trying to remember the scandals of Worlds. Then I just felt like I must have missed something big.
Then I realized that the writer lives in another universe.
Depends if the fans count at all.
With fewer fans it is easier for speedy (and people like you) to ignore great artisitc skating and just reward Chan's robotic "skating by numbers" style.
Even at Skate Canada the extremely small arena was empty when the "chosen one" came out to show his bland CoP skating style.
In France, Chan was soundly booed by the fans and so were the judges.
If he really deserved to win then it is obvious skating is no longer a sport people will follow.
Not a sport at all but a convoluted pageant totally unaccountable with the cheating rampant.
Meryl *is* magical, though, don't you think?
PS: I thought the ISU had been a dictatorship for quite some time already?
??? Ciquanta was to finish his term in (presumably) mid-2014. . . AFTER the Sochi Olympics. Russia's recommendation therefore makes no sense. Unless I am missing something?
If Ms. Friedlander thinks the audience can't understand IJS, instead of bitching about it, as a journalist maybe she should explain it so that they can be enlightened. The comments posted by the skater's dad are right on.
I also was surprised to learn that the ISU is now a dictatorship. I thought that happened long ago.
FREE ISU from dictatorship!
Vote Friedlander for President and Weir for Vice-President.
Well I have responded to the article (yes made my feelings known to Ms Friedlander). Will wait a response.
Would this happen to be you?
Oh, never mind
Is this a threat?
Holy f*ck how did you manage to find that? It is not even my Youtube account. A friend had videoed it and uploaded it.

Your own private YouTube
Review: Google Video adds easy video-sharing to Google's cloud-based business collaboration toolsFollow @infoworld
YouTube is part of the social fabric of the Internet now, with "watch this video" e-mails of the new millennium replacing the joke-list e-mails of the '90s as high-level corporate time-wasters. YouTube has made stars of some and fortunes for a few. In doing so, it has defined video as an easy, common way for regular folks to communicate with one another. Google is taking the easy video concept to business collaboration with Google Video, a video-sharing service designed for intra-business communications with team members, partners, and business colleagues.
As with most Google properties, simplicity is the primary characteristic of the user interface. The UI, presented in the simple shapes and colors common to Google Apps, makes it possible to push a video onto the site, complete with tags and descriptions, in a matter of a few moments.
[ See our review of Google Apps in "Cloud versus cloud: A guided tour of Amazon, Google, AppNexus, and GoGrid." See the review of Google Docs and Spreadsheets in "Office killers pack some heat." ]
Once on the Google Video server, the video is presented in a format that will look vaguely familiar to anyone who's been on YouTube. In fact, according to the company, Google Video is built on the same platform that hosts YouTube. If you simply place videos on Google's servers and define the list of those who can view them, you can get good use of the service while thinking of it as a private YouTube. If that's all you do, though, you'll be missing out on much of the power that lies beneath the basic video infrastructure.
Take viewing, for instance. Videos can be watched in either high quality or standard quality. You'll want to choose high quality unless you're reaching the service through dial-up or other low-bandwidth connections. In the Google Video viewer, a "Scenes" button provides a group of thumbnail images from various points throughout the video. Clicking a thumbnail takes you directly to that point in the video. This is a great feature for those who need to see, and comment on, specific parts of a video. Once you've seen the video, you may be able (at the discretion of the person who placed the video on the server) to download the file in MP4 format at either high or standard quality.
The uploader can also control who may post comments on the video. At upload time, they can designate individuals as collaborators (who can rate, tag, and comment on the video) or viewers (who can simply watch the video). It's also possible to avoid an explicit listing of viewers and collaborators and check a box allowing everyone with an address at the Google domain to view the file.
The video you place can be in any of a wide variety of formats, including AVI, Windows Media, QuickTime, and MPEG. Google has some recommendations on quality (640 x 480, 30 fps, de-interlaced, etc.), although the file cannot be larger than 300MB. Once uploaded, the file will be converted by Google in a process that will take as much as three times the length of the video. So don't expect a 10-minute video to show up in Google Video until 30 minutes later; you might want to upload and grab some lunch.

'Final Victory' tells story behind Grant memoir
- Written by Bobbi Booker
- Published in Lifestyles
The memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant have long been considered the best ever written by a former military leader or president. Completed mere days before his death in 1885, they were an instant bestseller when Mark Twain published them and are still in print today — more than 150 years after the Civil War began. However, while Grant's war experiences are well known, few know the story behind the book itself.
In "Grant's Final Victory: Ulysses S. Grant's Heroic Last Year" (Da Capo Press, $17.95), Charles Bracelen Flood explains how Grant's memoirs was the last effort of a dying man to support his family. Shortly after losing all of his wealth in a terrible 1884 scam, Grant learned he had terminal cancer and began to write his memoirs to save his family from permanent financial ruin. As Grant continued his work, suffering increasing pain, the American public became aware of this race between Grant's writing and his fatal illness.
"I was fascinated by how little had been written about the last year," said Flood. "In a 14-month period, he first lost all his money in a Wall Street swindle. As he began to write his memoirs in an effort to make some money, he was diagnosed as having cancer of the mouth and throat —the result of many years of smoking cigars. Twenty years after he set new standards of military honor by his magnanimous treatment of Robert E. Lee and his men during the surrender at Appomattox Court House, the entire nation, North and South, joined in wishing him well, and in hoping he could finish his book before he died."
After finishing his second term in office in 1877, Grant moved to New York City to go into business on Wall Street. The former president was largely disengaged from the company's business, often signing papers without reading them. This proved disastrous, as his partner, Ferdinand Ward, had used the firm as a Ponzi scheme, taking investors' money and spending it on personal items, including a mansion in Connecticut and a brownstone in New York City. Grant & Ward failed in May 1884, leaving Grant penniless. That fall, the former president was diagnosed with terminal throat cancer. Facing his mortality, Grant struck a publishing deal with his friend Mark Twain and began working on his memoirs, hoping they would provide for his family after his death.
"Grant's famous wartime determination — Lincoln said of him, 'When Grant gets possession of a place, he acts as if he had inherited it' — was fully on display during his final months," explained Flood. "He spent the last five weeks of his life in a cottage at Mt. McGregor, New York, in the hills above Saratoga Springs. Working hard to finish his book, he told all those around him that completing it was his overriding priority, and told his son Frederick, 'This is now my greatest interest in life, to see my work done.' Pushing himself to the end, he complete his book, and died three days later. Mark Twain learned of his death two hours after it occurred, and wrote in his notebook, 'I think his book kept him alive several months, He was a very great man and superlatively good.'"
A country divided by war had, in unison, come to know Grant as a brave and honest man. More than any other American before or since, Grant, in his last year, was able to heal this — the country's greatest wound.

Powerless yes we can see that we've been powerless and I see taking it as sugested without anger ect is exactly why we're where we are now. I can't fool myself that deep if at all
CARE2 already has a petition for this....they are REALLY in need of signatures!
I have already signed, but if someone with technical prowess can get a copy of
it to OV, that would be great!!
I agree with you 100% The world as it is, is our creation.
We must also keep in mind that in the world of illusion the rules of illusion governs. Collective agreement. So there really are victims and tyrants, but only in the illusion and for those who partake in that belief system. Psychology for example is an in depth study of the human psyche within the illusion. It helps to recognize every level of awareness and to advise something of a stepping stone to bring someone just a little higher than from where they are regardless.
To all I would like you to remember that getting angry at something is only acknowledging your powerlessness in changing it and also giving your own power away to the thing that angers you. It is an affirmation of your inability to change it. But if you feel anger then live it out (Don't suppress) have a row and get it over with, move on from there to higher vibration.
Best to observe this phenomenon of chemtrails without any preference and then to decide how you would like it to be again without any judgments, then reality will gradually change to fit your framework. Feel the happiness clear skies would bring you and let the universe feel your happiness.
In the illusion, some will rabble and protest while others will change it from within government and others will meditate on it and all that happens is good because it is all part of the process of how the reality is changing to become our framework of how we would like it to be.
If Iodine production is lost in the plant kingdom then we will have to supplement on kelp. Iodine is also used in the production of table salt.
Iodine is what the body uses to get rid of heavy metal poisoning.
I understand now why Ramtha warned us not to have any children for a while anymore. Keeping them healthy in the face of government forced immunity legislations and FDA 'permitted' poisons in our foodstuffs with lack of natural vitamins is going to take a lot of pro activity.
OH MY GOD I just had a terrible though ,we haven't heard from any aliens on here for awhile what if there behind this filling us full of alumimum then thay will take us on board there ships and use us to patch holes in there ships,OK sorry "now to get real"if you can't stop it find out how to protect us from alumimum and how to load up on vit-D,also sunflower sprouts are full of iodine.
For once, I was able to read the comments below this video on YouTube, as this is a subject that has a LOT of people ticked off in a big way. To me, that is a great sign that our next level of awakening has begun in earnest. While I was just as ticked off at this travesty, I was conversely excited to see that many people are taking notice...so you can bet that I passed this along to all that I knew. It is unreal how much we have allowed them to get away with!!! While we slept like drugged-up sheep!!! When/How/Where are we going to STOP this kind of genocide????? THAT is what this IS!!!! Aaarrggghhh....my reaction here is a testament to how well-made this video is...I just PRAY that we can somehow win this battle. It seems that we are limited in just passing this information along for now...and remaining awake for our next opportunity to kick some corporate a*&*.
How encouraging you are Harry
People my age could care less
,they don"t even care what happens to there kids,there all being posioned and thay don"t do anything to stop it "why " the programming is already in place there all normal,were crazy,convence the kids there the ones with less programming,The biggest problem here is you think your talking to thousands on OV there are probally 200 people here at the most,do you like to text ,then text this to someone ,get the youtube video out every where you can.make bumper stickers,some of you have money rent a bilboard.get this video in every church you can ,except catholic there probally behind it.
O.K Victoria, good news, keep us informed, and let me know what you need me to do. I'm tired of us being treated like dirt. I'm about mad as hell about it and sitting back taking it hasn't gotten us anywhere so far. If hell breaks loose any of us may die, but they're going to kill us anyway so I don't mind going down fighting for others. Love and luck
The stats are in...just saw on Disclose tv that more people than ever are waking
up, and a lot of that is due to spreading the information. That is something we
ALL can do. I put lots of things on my Face Book page. I will send see what can
be done with CARE2 to get a petition started.
