Kiasmos: "Bent"
Erased Tapes
By Patric Fallon; October 1, 2014
Ólafur Arnalds and Janus Rasmussen hail from two distinctive backgrounds, an Icelandic pianist/composer and a Faroese synth-pop producer, respectively. And while you couldn't necessarily call their collaboration, Kiasmos, a sum of those disparate parts, the duo's take on exploratory instrumental electronics does sound unafraid to wear the heritage on its sleeve.
"Bent", the third single from Kiasmos' self-titled debut for Erased Tapes, holds nothing back as it rushes into the stuttering thump and gnarled, fidgety bassline of its central groove. Balancing the mix, Arnalds' light orchestral touches and piano phrases radiate around the production's soft edges, adding an air of sophisticated musicality to an otherwise no-frills arrangement. Kiasmos isn't making classically minded synth-pop on "Bent", but they are journeying past the roads those sounds have paved and into deep, alien places.
Zennor: "Storms"
The Trilogy Tapes
By Philip Sherburne; October 1, 2014
If you're looking for the tail end of England, look to Zennor. Alphabetically, it's the last of the country's civil parishes. Located far down the Cornish peninsula, near the megalithic burial chamber Zennor Quoit—which might also make a fine name for an Aphex Twin track—it's one of the westernmost points in England. Despite all that, and despite the gloomy cover art, Zennor's "Storms" is a pretty sunny affair. Or a sprightly one, anyway, animated by wiry piano stabs and jumpy hi-hats and an almost insouciant sense of skip and glide.
While the alias is new, Zennor's players, Tom Ford (aka Peverelist) and Andy Mac, are comparatively old hands from Bristol's bass-loving club scene. This three-track EP for the Trilogy Tapes might be the housiest thing either has put his name to yet—particularly "Storms", which sounds like it's riffing on the way the French Touch riffed on Chicago and New York styles. After years in which "Bristol" was often synonymous with "UK bass music," perhaps Zennor is a jumping-off point for a more internationalist style.
G: "Outer Space" [ft. Genevieve]
By Marcus J. Moore; September 30, 2014
When musicians grow weary, they look to the cosmos. Stevie Wonder viewed Saturn as a place with clean air and abundant natural resources. Before he transformed into fictional rocker Ziggy Stardust, David Bowie wondered if life existed on Mars. Space travel in music isn't new, but it's always interesting to hear where artists will go next. For their new song, "Outer Space", vocalist Genevieve Schatz and producer Jimmy Giannopoulos (aka G) paint the universe as a vast mosaic of bright colors and rich sounds. Genevieve navigates the track with pitch-perfect vocal stabs and echoed wails, both escalating against marching drums and backing horns. Above all, it's an incredibly visual tune that takes listeners elsewhere, even if they're still on Earth. "Outer Space" is from Giannopoulos' forthcoming EP, out later this year.
GFOTY: "My Song"
Secret Songs
By Colin Joyce; September 30, 2014
The artists who recently contributed to the first compilation from Ryan Hemsworth's internet pseudo-label Secret Songs were asked to hold fast to an abstract compositional guide—to make songs that recall the specific, sickly shade of pink indicated by the HTML color code ffb6c1. Acts as diverse as the J-pop-indebted aesthetes Kero Kero Bonito and narcotized dream popper Cuushe offer alternately buoyant and placid interpretations, but quasi-anonymous UK producer GFOTY's take on the pretty pastel shade is uniquely unsettling.
On "My Song", the Hemsworth-dubbed "PC Music princess" distills her two years of warped pop music into a single-minute burst of chipmunked chants and flailing digital noise. Unlike the hyper-caffeinated cheerleader mantras of likeminded artists SOPHIE and QT, GFOTY's titular assertion that "it's [her] song (get off it)" comes off more like a kiss-off than a come-on. Couple that with the anxiety-inducing collisions of candy-coated synthesizers that fill the bite-sized song, and she's landed in a realm far from the uncanny pop producers she's often associated with. Lump her in with the PC Music crew all you want, but as the instrumental crush of this cut underscores on one of its squeaked bars: "without my friends I'm better."
Perc: "Grindr"
By Ian Cohen; September 30, 2014
Early this year, dark techno producer Perc released The Power and the Glory, an LP that incorporated hardcore, drum and bass, early dubstep and garage but struck me as "industrial" in the literal sense: metal-on-metal scraping, heavy exertion, and methodical, upward builds. So, at first, one might be inclined to think of new single "Grindr" as a portmanteau, as it does sound like the grinding of steel girders. Of course, it's more likely named after the iPhone app and that would be fitting as well, since its rudimentary, functional 4/4 beat and searing shouts embody all of the positive and negative things ascribed to Grindr: it's exciting, crude and very direct, but a useful tool all the same.

1349: "Postmortem"
Season of Mist
By Kim Kelly; September 29, 2014
For many years, the Norwegian black metal scene lay more or less dormant, its legends content to skate by on rote or experimental material while its young blood gravitated towards other genres. The past few years have seen a rebirth, though, led by the Nidrosian collective and bolstered by strong releases from veterans like Mayhem and Darkthrone. Since 1997, 1349 has straddled the divide between traditional and avant-garde, but their last two albums were poorly executed and faced a lukewarm reception. It seemed as though they'd lost the plot entirely.
However, four years have passed since Demonoir, and the band is aiming to redeem themselves with new album, Massive Cauldron of Chaos. What was lost has now been found. Songs like the furious, dynamic "Postmortem" point towards a new, unexpectedly high watermark for 1349. It opens with a purposeful midtempo chug punctuated by skittering atonal leads, before hurtling into a maelstrom of vicious, surprisingly groovy black thrash. It's miles ahead of anything they've done since 2005's Hellfire, and an excellent argument for the continuing relevance of Norwegian black metal's old guard.
1349: "Postmortem"
HNC: "Southern Fruitas"
White Lily
By Patrick St. Michel; September 29, 2014
Tokyo artist HNC started her career 14 years ago under the name Hazel Nuts Chocolate, and her music was as sweet as that moniker implied. She became a prominent voice in the then-blooming neo-Shibuya-kei scene, releasing two twee pop albums and guesting on tracks by some of the biggest names in the community. As the decade wore on, she shortened her name, but stuck to fluffier sounds (including a song that sampled cats at length). Then, near the start of 2011, something changed. The HNC project ventured into darker, more unsettling territory, the hyperactive meowing replaced by slow-burning existential dread, territory she's continued to explore since.
"Southern Fruitas" isn't as directly dark, but HNC still finds ways to warp even a warmer, sunnier track into something that retains a bit of wrongness. "Fruitas" features string swells, a shuffling beat, and an especially upbeat vocal sample at its center. But it also incorporates backmasked singing, and HNC's voice comes across as wispy, like she's haunting the tropical march playing out around her. "Fruitas" is the most inviting thing HNC has written in recent years, but she makes it more intriguing by leaving small details just slightly off.

Jason Urick: "Whoever You Are"
By Marc Masters; September 29, 2014
On 2012's I Love You, the dub influences behind Jason Urick's electronic soundscapes came to the fore, and the result was his best work to date. His newest full-length, a tape called The Day on Swedish label Oma333, was recorded right after he finished I Love You, and finds him still fully enamored of dub's hypnotic repetition. All kinds of sound pass through his burbling mix, but a mesmerizing sway sits at the core of every track.
On "Whoever You Are", Urick starts by burying a bass-drum cycle beneath digital shimmer. It's not long before that loop rises to the top, accompanied by a woozy, processed vocal. The song maintains a dreamy, underwater quality, as sounds reflect off each other into an ever-lengthening hall of mirrors. But nothing is ever too far under the surface. It's fun to get swept up in the foam of Urick's noises, but his undercurrent of dubby melody has the greatest pull.

Mitski: "Townie"
Double Double Whammy
By Jenn Pelly; September 26, 2014
As anyone who has left home for greener collegiate pastures can attest, there is nothing quite like a house party in your hometown to bring on a bitter post-adolescent existential crisis. Facing the past dead-on intensifies the present, and amid the red cups you're left wondering about love, death, and what you have become. Brooklyn resident Mitski Miyawaki, who records simply as Mitski, captures the feeling of this narrative on "Townie", off her upcoming record, Bury Me at Makeout Creek. Over thick, surfy noise-pop riffs, she describes the lead-up to a party that does not sound especially fun, and the dark humor of the record's title is strung through her twisted inner-monologue there: "I want a love that falls as fast as a body from the balcony/ And I want a kiss like my heart is hitting the ground," she sings, riding a wave of distortion, "I'm holding my breath with a baseball bat." But amid the extremities of Mitski's yearning, she hits all the high notes; you believe her when she says she'll change.

Diamond District: "Lost Cause"
Mello Music Group
By Marcus J. Moore; September 26, 2014
Released in 2009, Diamond District's In the Ruff helped establish a new wave for D.C. hip-hop: It was an evocative rap album that captured the resilient spirit of Washington's black natives. And while Wale—the region's most visible rapper—released his debut the same year, Diamond District spoke to those closer to the ground, those wading through 9-to-5 jobs and real-life issues. To my ears, In the Ruff is one of the best rap albums ever released from the D.C. area.
So their forthcoming album, March on Washington, comes with great anticipation. "Lost Cause" is the LP's bouncy second single, an uplifting head-nodder on which rappers Oddisee, Uptown XO and yU address cultural and personal breakthroughs. "Yeah, I came here on a ship, but I flew out on a plane," Oddisee—the group's jetsetting leader—says at the top. "Trade these shackles and a whip, for some status and a name." XO offers a melodic, shape-shifting flow, and yU aspires for greater wealth: "I'm tryna get it to the point where my kids' kids can live it up." That's a lofty goal, but the rappers have always looked ahead. Some things never change.

Kids (1979)
Kids! Kids! Kids!
I have vague memories about this series, which I think was set in some type of children's home, but certain things about it have stuck in my mind since I saw it in 1979; There was no music in the title sequence, just children shouting the name of the series. And also, a large group of children shot from above, came together to form the word "Kids". Each episode was named after the particular child that was featured in it. It was shown on Friday nights around 9pm, and featured some quite hard-hitting episodes; If I recall correctly, one youth who was in the "home" liked to start fires. I think James Hazeldine was the bearded boss of the establishment.
It was certainly something different, and its hard to imagine such a series being made these days. Personally, I preferred to watch the Professionals on a Friday evening, but that's just me.
Blondie: One Way or Another (2006)
This is an example of a well made documentary, and shows how they should be made. Its charts the rise and fall and rise again of the so-called "new wave" band Blondie, during the late '70s and early '80s - and early noughties too. For those of you that don't know the term "new wave", it applied to any band of the era which supposedly disowned their punk roots and sold out to become rich and famous, or any musicians who simply took the punk stylings but wrote and performed highly commercial songs. At one point, Debby Harry and another member are taken back to the apartment that they rented in a rundown tenement building years before, and recall how the place was rat infested in the days before they topped music charts around the world. They also realise with irony, that a new band starting out would not be able to afford to rent such a place, in the now gentrified area of New York city.
Although this programme was a means of promoting their new releases of the time, one can overlook this as it is very entertaining to watch.
Top of the Pops: The Story of 1978 (2013)
The BBC researchers strike again!!
This is yet another of the BBC's badly researched and revisionist "documentaries", which supposedly tells how punk rock saved us from all the bad pop music which was in the charts, during the latter years of the 1970s. But anyone like me who was alive back then, or even watches the repeats of editions of Top of the Pops that are currently being shown on BBC 4, may well see a much more accurate depiction of that era. Because actually, there was some great pop music, reggae music, soul music, disco music, and even rock music in the charts while quite a lot of the punk music was dire and amateurish to say the least.
Programs like this, often depict a very selective, and one-sided view of the past, with very little balance on show to even things up; Not everyone hated Boney M, or Shawaddy Waddy, or The Barron Knights. In fact a lot of people liked those novelty bands, that is why they sold so many records. It wasn't just down to good PR men. And by the same token, not everyone saw punk rock as the saviour of British music. Granted, it was something new and different. But it was also very short-lived and controversial (Try Googling the name Sid Vicious, if you don't know who he was). In fact, the soul and disco bands of the past, have left a much more influential legacy to today's music.
I think it was very remiss of the BBC to broadcast a program which (purposely?) left out the facts, and presented half-truths as being the gospel.
They've done it before, and they'll do it again. No doubt.
Violette & François (1977)
Pourquoi? Why? That's what I ask myself, whenever I see a film like this; Why do women stay with men who aren't good for them?
In this film, Violette, played by the still ultra-sexy Isobelle Adjani, is in a relationship with Francois played by Jaques Dutronc, who is a major wastrel that cannot hold down a job, and who likes to go shoplifting...among other things. The couple have a young son who is blonde, despite the fact that his parents are not...I couldn't quite understand this, but anyway the film is quite watchable, and the characters are all engaging thanks to the performances of the cast. I have a love for all things French, so, I quite like these types of films, which show how Paris looked in the past. Surtout, dans les années 70. Eventually, Violette participates in Francois'...hobby...as the couple fall on hard times, and surprisingly she enjoys their escapades, until one day when she suffers some dire consequences for her actions.
I quite liked it. See it, and judge for yourself.
Un éléphant ça trompe énormément (1976)
Bravo! Trés bien!
This has to be my favourite French film ever! I recall seeing it's very well dubbed English version on TV in the early '80s. It was remade into The Woman in Red, which was pretty banal in comparison. But thanks to TV5 Monde, I was able to see the original version en Francais.
The film centres around Jean Rochefort, his friends and family. At the start, we see him standing precariously on the ledge of a high building. The reason why is shown at the film's end. (I won't give it away here) This is followed by a flashback. He is a middle-aged some-what bored businessman, who has his head turned one day when he sees a mysterious woman standing under an air vent in a car park. She happens to be wearing a flimsy red dress (hence the US title of the remake) which flutters in the breeze. She seems to enjoy this, and returns to the vent for a second helping. After she walks away, Rochefort tries it out for himself, but the effect for him in his buttoned overcoat is not as sexy to the viewer. Or even him. This is the catalyst for his obsession with the girl, played by Anny Duperey, who eventually turns up at his place of work, much to his surprise.
Meanwhile, his loving and quite attractive wife, is being sexually harassed by a chubby friend of their teenage daughter, this is not to mention the personal problems that Rochefort's tennis buddies also encounter.
This is well worth a look, even for the dubbed version. There was also a sequel made sometime after, but the magic was not there.
Cause toujours... tu m'intéresses! (1979)
Mildly amusing
The title of my review suggests my opinion of the film. Although to be fair, my french is a bit rusty but I got the gist of it all. I think you have to understand the French social mores of the '70s a bit, as it's quite a dated movie. However, I did like the scenes where the salesman tells his potential customers his problems, in order to make them buy his wares.
It was also quite nice to see a very young, and very sexy Jane Birkin.
The married Jean Pierre-Marielle, always looks funny whenever he appears in his furry overcoat. And his girlfriend on-the-side, who habitually tries to commit suicide, finally succeeds in the end. If memory serves, she dies in a car accident, after three previous attempts to blow herself up with a gas cooker. All this after a saucy sex session in a hotel with the aforementioned salesman, played by Jean Carmet.
There is an appearance by Jean Rochefort, who seems to always have the same laconic expression on his face, in all his movies. He reminds me of a French Robert Mitchum.
The American Girls (1978)
Shown in the UK.
This series was also shown in England, circa 1981.
I have very vague memories of it being shown by the BBC late at night, with some girls driving around in a van. But, it was renamed as "Have Girls Will Travel" for some reason, that name seems to make more sense. If my memory serves, it was quite watchable nothing to shout about, but like many series of the era, it has been forgotten...
Except by die-hard TV fans.

Ron Howard: 50 Years in Film (2008)
Why no mention of Cocoon?
I've just seen this on the TNT channel, and although it was enjoyable I was a little surprised that there was no mention of the film that he made after Splash, Cocoon. I consider this to be one of his best, even though it was a little too Spielbergy in parts. I wonder why it was omitted.
It's hard to believe that Ron Howard has been in show business for so long, but then again, looking at him it's believable. Sorry Ron, but you are looking your age - and older, but considering that you started acting as a toddler, you've done well. It's easy to forget that he has produced quite an awesome (in size anyway) body of work over the years, not all of which were to my liking. I didn't really think much of Backdraft, or Far And Away, but I don't think I was alone in regard to the latter film.
Foxy Lady (1982)
Keen as a Fox!
As I recall from my deep and foggy memory, this series was about a young female reporter played by Diane Keen who in the 1960s, begins working at a northern newspaper. She comes across the usual sexism from her colleagues and boss, as you'd expect.

Supersonic (1975)
Top of the Pops for kids
This show 'hosted' by director/producer Mike Mansfield, became a staple of early evening Saturday TV in England. Mansfield, who also directed music videos, was shown behind a TV studio production desk, literally cueing the next music act on each time. Often, he would be joined by a celebrity such as Suzie Quatro on one occasion. There was no pretence made, that this wasn't a TV show, as even the cameramen were usually in view. Some of the most popular music acts of the era, appeared on it over it's run including, Sailor, The Three Degrees, and even a teenaged Midge Ure in his group Slick. It resurfaced on TV a few years, only because of showings on a satellite channel. In the 190s, Mansfield hosted a late night TV series featuring concert footage, called Cue The Music.
Though very dated, it would be still worth a look.

Wash. governor met with Airbus execBy MIKE BAKER
the associated press | December 24,2013SEATTLE Washington Gov. Jay Inslee personally met with an Airbus executive recently to discuss how the state and the Boeing rival can work together.
The private gathering occurred in October during an aerospace conference in Seattle, Inslee spokesman David Postman said on Monday after The Associated Press identified the meeting in records obtained under public records law. Postman said the governor talked with Barry Eccleston, the president and CEO of Airbus Americas, for about 20 minutes.
The bulk of the conversation was the governor touting our suppliers, Postman said. Eccleston oversees Airbus operations in North and South America.
Washington has been expanding its relationship with Airbus this year, with government officials traveling to the companys U.S. headquarters and signing a five-year confidentiality agreement to further explore business opportunities. Inslee has said the state is always looking for ways to increase aerospace employment in Washington state, either with Boeing Co. or other companies.
In 2011 and 2012, former Gov. Chris Gregoire met with Airbus officials in Europe as part of a variety of meetings surrounding air shows there. In the recent meeting, Inslee had been invited to speak at an event organized by the British American Business Council, and emails show that Inslee aides worked to arrange a private meeting with Eccleston after the governors remarks.
Boeing has a 100-year history in Washington state and is promoted around the world by Washington state politicians. But the company has increasingly been working with other locations, moving its headquarters to Chicago and opening a production line in South Carolina.
Now, as it looks for a cheaper place to build its 777X passenger plane, Boeing has been exploring bids from 22 states that could send thousands of jobs elsewhere.
Postman emphasized the Airbus talks have no connection to Boeings looming decision on where it will build the new 777X plane.
So far, the states relationship with Airbus has largely revolved around developing the companys relationship with suppliers in the state. Airbus has been looking to expand its U.S. procurement, so Washington state officials helped organize an event this year that brought state suppliers face-to-face with Airbus officials.MORE IN National / World BusinessLOS ANGELES Its back, and its back on a scale that is well matched to this car-centric city.

On March 21, 2010, a day that will live in infamy, our beloved Constitutional Republic came to an end. Its murder was committed by a small majority of socialist Democrats in the House of Representatives who have given us a new form of government: Federal Socialism. By that vote, the great legacy of freedom given us by our Founding Fathers was thrown on the trash heap. And the man most responsible for making this happen is the socialist would-be dictator in the White House, Barack Hussein Obama.
Obama's Health Reform DeceptionsWritten by Ralph R. Reiland
What became quickly obvious while watching President Obama's recent interview about healthcare reform with Bret Baier on FOX is that we're still not getting straight answers about the proposed reforms — and this after a year of healthcare being the No. 1 priority at the Obama White House.
"I'll be famous one day, but for now I'm stuck in middle school with a bunch of morons." Greg Heffley's perception of middle school was less than optimistic — in fact, he thought it was the dumbest idea ever invented. What middle schooler wouldn't agree? That's why Diary of a Wimpy Kid proved to be a popular book series and now a hit movie to boot!
The Warmers Strike BackWritten by Walter Williams
Stephen Dinan's Washington Times article "Climate Scientist to Fight Back at Skeptics," (March 5, 2010) tells of a forthcoming campaign that one global warmer said needs to be "an outlandishly aggressively partisan approach" to gut the credibility of skeptics. "Climate scientists at the National Academy of Sciences say they are tired of 'being treated like political pawns' and need to fight back…" Part of their strategy is to form a nonprofit organization and use donations to run newspaper ads to criticize critics. Stanford professor and environmentalist Paul Ehrlich, in one of the e-mails obtained by the Washington Times said, "Most of our colleagues don't seem to grasp that we're not in a gentlepersons' debate, we're in a street fight against well-funded, merciless enemies who play by entirely different rules."

The College of the Holy Cross has the fifth highest four-year graduation rate among all colleges and universities in the country according to U.S. News & World Report. At 89.9 percent, Holy Cross is part of an elite group of institutions that graduate an average of nine in 10 students in four years, saving families money in additional tuition costs. In comparison, the average graduation rate of all 1,207 schools that provided graduation rate data to U.S. News for the same period (2006-10) was just 41 percent.
Among the top 10 schools included in the U.S. News list, Holy Cross shared the spotlight with Carleton College (No. 1), Williams College (No. 2), Bowdoin College (No. 3), Columbia University (No. 4), Haverford College (No. 6), Davidson College (No. 7), Georgetown University (No. 8), Lafayette College (No. 9), and Yale University (No. 10).
With a 98 percent graduation success rate for student-athletes, Holy Cross also ties for the No. 5 rank among the most successful in NCAA Division I athletics. In its 2012 Graduation Success Rate Report, which is based on data from 2002 – 05, the NCAA noted that 20 of Holy Cross' athletic teams achieved a perfect 100 percent graduation rate.
For additional information, please contact Bridget Cass at 508-793-2419.
There is a direct link between the three stories about "best value", "graduation rates" and alumni giving. They are woven together with purple thread.

There were a couple of bugs related to the new version of Jomsocial, but the support was great and a fix was made available in a timely manner.
Now, I can offer my members blogs that they can completely design to look independent of the site, while still having their articles posted to the main site blog. Plus, all blogs and comments post straight to the activity stream on the main jomsocial page, and show in the users profile as well.
Thank you, core php for this powerful component that helped me take my site to the next level. The feedback from my members has been overwhelmingly positive as well.

Israel will not be a stop on US Secretary of State John Kerry's first
international trip, in which he will travel to Europe and the Middle East from
February 24 to March 6.Kerry had been expected to arrive in Israel at
the end of this month, as part of that trip, but will instead arrive with US
President Barack Obama during his visit in March.It is assumed that the
absence of a new Israeli government caused Kerry to postpone the trip.No
exact date has been set for the US president's visit. But with each
passing day Obama fever in Israel is rising.On Tuesday, the Prime
Minister's Office released an official logo that will be on all documents and
signs relating to the trip.The blue, red and white logo looks like a
flag that is half American and half Israeli, with red strips on one side and
blue strips and a Jewish star on the other. Underneath it are the words
"Unbreakable Alliance."

MEDFORD, Ore.-Monica Parente and her 20-month-old son--left homeless this weekend as a result of toxic black mold in their new rental.
They were ready to move in last Saturday, but Parente says the home on Perrydale Avenue was filled with toxic black mold.
She says Valley Properties promised to clean it, when she first viewed the home, but it never did.
Parente hired an inspector who confirmed the mold is highly toxic and the rental is not safe for her, her baby or anyone to live in.
Parente says the management company gave her a couple options--take her money and look elsewhere, or live in the rental, but sign a waiver first while waiting an unknown amount of time for Valley Properties to fix the problem.
Parente claims to not have the time or money to deal with the problems.
She is not willing to put the health of her baby and her own health at risk.
Parente insists others in the community stand up for themselves in these situations. "This is not a joke and the rest of this community should know that they should never have to live in those kinds of circumstances and management should never ever endanger someone's life by putting them in that scenario and then knowingly still proposing that I live there knowing how dangerous it is."
Parente is now living with friends.
News Ten tried to contact Valley Properties, but we have not heard back.

Mrs. James' multiple nominations included the following student comments: "Mrs. James is supportive and focused on grades of students, she is always willing to help others, she is very dedicated to her students' learning, and she shows she cares about every one of us." One student wrote, "I've had Mrs. James for three years now, and I am never disappointed in her class. She makes the classroom a great learning environment with activities and discussions. When I enter her class, I know I will leave learning something new. Mrs. James is also a friend, not just a teacher; she can relate to you and cares very much about her students. She wants every student to succeed, even at her cost. Personally, she has inspired me greatly to become a better writer."
Mrs. James has been involved with public education for the last seven years, all in the Simpson County School System. In the past she has taught Pre-AP English 9 and 10 and English 9 and 10. Currently she teaches AP United States History and US History to her high school students.
Mrs. James' hometown is Marie Stein, Ohio. She has attended Western Kentucky University where she received her degree in Middle Grades English and History. She also attended the University of Cumberlands where she earned a degree in Reading and Writing K-12.
"Watching my students generate connections with the content and seeing them be proud of themselves" are two of her favorite parts of her current occupation! She has been married to Ted James for 20 years. They have one daughter, Jodie James, a Vol State grad in PTA. They also have one son, Ben James, a 7th grader at FSMS. In her free time, Mrs. James enjoys reading, running, and cooking.
Thank you, Mrs. James, for your dedication to Simpson County students!!
Jennifer Emberton Named FSEEF Excellent Educator 5.14.14
The Franklin-Simpson Excellence in Education Foundation is proud to name Ms. Jennifer Emberton as an Excellent Educator in the Simpson County School System. She received numerous nominations from her students. Below are some of the comments made by her students:
She is always happy.
She is nice, smart, and overall, an awesome teacher.
She is always nice and she gets work done.
She is always optimistic and a good teacher.
She is funny, sweet, and has an awesome smile.
I like the way she uses other things, like games, in teaching social studies.
In Ms. Emberton's own words:
"After graduating Western Kentucky University in 2012, I was offered a position in the school where I completed my student
teaching (under Mr. R. McDougal and Mrs. C. Phillips; two great educators!). At this time, I am a student at Western Kentucky University, seeking a master degree (rank II) in Library Media Education, with an endorsement in Educational Technology.
I have been teaching in Simpson County since 2012. Currently, I am teaching sixth grade social studies on team Hope at Franklin Simpson Middle School. I have previously taught seventh grade language arts (I enjoy teaching both subjects) and have sponsored several clubs at FSMS: FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes), STLP (Student Technology Leadership Program), Battle of the Books (student initiated reading incentive program), and I will be sponsoring the Wildcat News Program for the next school year. Last year, I worked with an ASL (American Sign Language) group of students, a GT (gifted and talented) news letter team and a robotics class.
Growing up in the small city of Scottsville, my parents, Jerry and Sheila Whitney, taught me the value of hard work, a good education, and giving back to the community. I attended church regularly as a child and that had a great impact on my life! My husband, Gabe Emberton, is a minister, works at Franklin-Simpson EMS, Monroe Co. EMS, Allen Co. EMS, and is a volunteer firefighter for Cedar Springs in Allen County. Gabe's support, and leadership of our family, influences my life daily. I am thankful to have him as my partner in life. We hope that our sons have the same desire to help others and to give back to their community.
My favorite part of my job? That is easy to answer… my students! I can tell you about each of them. What they want to do when they get older, what they are good at, what skills they do best, what they look like when they know something… or when they don't. As I type this, a smile comes over my face… because of them. They are the best! Each of them has their own talents, opinions, skill set, and experience. I value that. I value the people they will become and who they are now. Also, knowing that each of these students will grow up to be part of a community… and challenging them now to consider what part they will be in that community.
My passion in education is evident in the work I do with technology. There are many types of technology out there and students need exposure to these twenty first century skills. I spend most of my time, outside of the classroom, staying up-to-date on these new skill sets. This has become my hobby (my husband would be the first to confirm this!). I constantly research new ways to teach digital citizenship, financial literacy, computer coding, and job skills (like interviewing, creating resumes, and even writing college admission letters). I am very passionate about my students going into the world being college/career ready, but also being global minded.
One last thing, I love working for Simpson county schools! The support and guidance I receive from my principal (Mr. C. Delk), assistant principals (Mr. M. Barnum and Mrs. L. Fisher), team teachers (Ms. M. Harris, Ms. E. Duvall, & Mr. J. Staggs), and parents daily, is enough to make my job easy. All of the people I work with in the Simpson County district provide the foundation for success. These individuals work hard to make sure the school environment, and student, needs are met every day. They have given me the opportunity to grow and continually develop my skills. I am blessed beyond measure. Thank you again for this recognition!"
We thank Ms. Jennifer Emberton for her dedication and love of the Franklin-Simpson School System and community. We are a better community because of teachers like Ms. Emberton!!
