Man hurt at Exeter filling station while putting air in his tires
The accident occurred around 3:30 p.m. when a 16-year-old female driver finished pumping gas, pulled away from the pumps in her car, and struck the rear of another car where a man was filling his tire with air, Police Sgt. Jake Dewire said.
The force of the collision caused the man to be thrown about 8 feet away from his car, Dewire said.
The teenager told police that she didn't see the car because the sun was in her eyes, Dewire said.
The man, whose name wasn't available, was transported to Exeter Hospital but his injuries were not believed to be serious.

When it comes to cooking, New Zealand Lamb is extremely versatile, the flavour combines beautifully with a variety of ingredient's to create some mouth-watering dishes. This is a quick & easy recipe to cook with kids. The key is to have a wok large enough to cook for 4 at once. If you have a smaller wok it is best to cook in two batches. If the kids are eating this recipe you might want to cut back on the aromatics (garlic, ginger and chilli). For more tasty and imaginative recipe ideas go to loveourlamb.co.uk.

St. Leonard Cottage Rental Photos and Description
Cottage, 3 Bedrooms, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6)
Just steps from the Chesapeake Bay, this charming pet-friendly home features fabulous water views. Relax in the hot tub; lounge on the deck or unwind in the screened-in porch. For the adventurer, it's a great spot for kayaking, fishing and canoeing.
The shaded back yard is perfect for a gathering of family and friends (and keeps Fido happy!).
Nestled in the wooded area of the Calvert Cliffs, the home's close proximity to Flag Ponds Nature Park allows you to try your hand at fossil hunting. Sharks' teeth and other Miocene fossils can be found along the park's shoreline. Picnic tables are provided, so consider packing a lunch and spend the day hiking the trails, exploring the beaches, fishing or bird watching. Pets are welcome at the park.
Also close by is Jefferson Patterson Park, which features 500+ scenic acres along the Patuxent River, more than 70 identified archeological sites and is home to Maryland's Archaeological Conservation Laboratory. Other features include a Native American village, farm exhibits and an interactive visitor center. For history buffs, the area was the site of several key battles during the War of 1812.
A few miles south is the popular Maryland destination of Solomons Island, home to the Calvert Marine Museum, AnnMarie Sculpture Garden, a boardwalk, popular seafood restaurants and charter fishing and sightseeing boats.
A town of just over 500 people, St. Leonard features quaint shops and retains a "small-town feel."
Fun fact: The opening scene in Clint Eastwood's "In the Line of Fire" was filmed just a few blocks away from the home at the Flag Harbor Yacht Haven.

Thomas Sowell: The fake economics of the fiscal cliff
Amid all the political and media hoopla about the "fiscal cliff" crisis, there are a few facts that are worth noting.
First of all, despite all the melodrama about raising taxes on "the rich," even if that is done it will scarcely make a dent in the government's financial problems. Raising the tax rates on everybody in the top two percent will not get enough additional tax revenue to run the government for ten days.
And what will the government do to pay for the other 355 days in the year?
All the political angst and moral melodrama about getting "the rich" to pay "their fair share" is part of a big charade. This is not about economics, it is about politics. Taxing "the rich" will produce a drop in the bucket when compared to the staggering and unprecedented deficits of the Obama administration.
No previous administration in the entire history of the nation ever finished the year with a trillion dollar deficit. The Obama administration has done so every single year. Yet political and media discussions of the financial crisis have been focussed overwhelmingly on how to get more tax revenue to pay for past and future spending.
The very catchwords and phrases used by the Obama administration betray how phony this all is. For example, "We are just asking the rich to pay a little more."
This is an insult to our intelligence. The government doesn't "ask" anybody to pay anything. It orders you to pay the taxes they impose and you can go to prison if you don't.
Then there are all the fancy substitute words for plain old spending - words like "stimulus" or "investing in the industries of the future."
The theory about "stimulus" is that government spending will stimulate private businesses and financial institutions to put more of their money into the economy, speeding up the recovery. But the fact that you call something a "stimulus" does not make it a stimulus.
Stimulus spending began during the Bush administration and has continued full blast during the Obama administration. But the end result is that both businesses and financial institutions have had record amounts of their own money sitting idle. The rate of circulation of money slowed down. All this is the opposite of stimulus.
What about "investing in the industries of the future"? Does the White House come equipped with a crystal ball? Calling government spending "investment" does not make it investment any more than calling spending "stimulus" makes it stimulate anything.
What in the world would lead anyone to think that politicians have some magic way of knowing what the industries of the future are? Thus far the Obama administration has repeatedly "invested" in the bankruptcies of the present, such as Solyndra.
Using lofty words to obscure tawdry realities extends beyond the White House. Referring to the Federal Reserve System's creation of hundreds of billions of new dollars out of thin air as "quantitative easing" makes it seem as if this is some soothing and esoteric process, rather than amounting essentially to nothing more than printing more money.
Debasing the value of money by creating more of it is nothing new or esoteric. Irresponsible governments have done this, not just for centuries, but for thousands of years.
It is a way to take people's wealth from them without having to openly raise taxes. Inflation is the most universal tax of all.
All the pretty talk about how tax rates will be raised only on "the rich" hides the ugly fact that the poorest people in the country will see the value of their money decline, just like everybody else, and at the same rate as everybody else, when the government creates more money and spends it.
If you have $100 and, after inflation follows from "quantitative easing," that $100 dollars will only buy what $80 bought before, then that is the same economically as if the government had taxed away one-fifth of your money and spent it.
But it is not the same politically, so long as gullible people don't look beyond words to the reality that inflation taxes everybody, the poorest as well as the richest.

The Real Jesus: Myth #3 (5 of 10)
After taking a little break to do some pro-life videos and a series on my cousin Keith the sculptor, I am trying to finish the Real Jesus video this month. Below is the script.
Myth #3: There was no virgin birth and Jesus was not born in Bethlehem
Jennings: "We cannot tell you whether or not Jesus is the Son of God, that is a matter of faith. But if you have difficulty with the idea that the Virgin Mary could get pregnant without a man involved, there are a number of ways to explain why in Luke it is written that way."
Jennings: "Some scholars think that Jesus was illegitimate and that the story was a cover-up."
That Jesus was born of a virgin is confirmed by both Matthew and Luke. In his Gospel, Matthew writes that this miracle was a fulfillment of Isaiah 7:14:
"Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and shall call His name Immanuel."
The name Immanuel in Hebrew means literally "God-With-Us." In other words, God himself was to be incarnate in human form. And the miraculous sign would be that He would be born of a virgin.
Now some have said that the word "virgin" in Hebrew can simply mean a maiden or an unmarried woman. The problem with this speculation is the context of Isaiah's prophecy. A "sign" in the Hebrew language is simply another way of translating the word "miracle." And the exclamation "Behold!" means to look with wonder. Both Isaiah and the Gospel writers meant to say that the Messiah would be born of a virgin and the witnesses would look in wonder at the event.
Peter Jennings is right about one thing. There is no physical evidence other than the scripture left to us today to determine the miracle of the Incarnation. But not only is the virgin birth called into question, but also the place and circumstances of Jesus' birth also prophesied in scripture.
Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, "Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him."
When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. So they said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for thus it is written by the prophet:
'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,
Are not the least among the rulers of Judah;
For out of you shall come a Ruler
Who will shepherd My people Israel.'"
— Matthew 2:1-6
According to prophecy given hundreds of years before Jesus was born, not only would He be born of a virgin, but He would also be born in the city of David, his forefather, in Bethlehem. Of course, Peter Jennings disagrees.
Jennings: "Luke writes that Joseph and Mary came here to Bethlehem from Nazareth because the Roman Emperor Caesar Augustus had ordered a world wide taxation. Now there is no record outside the Gospels that the Emperor Caesar Augustus ordered such a tax. Roman tax records do show that a man is to be taxed where he lives and where he works and Joseph lived and worked in Nazareth. Tax records also show they didn't count women. And so why would Joseph have brought Mary on this very difficult journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem through the desert especially when she was very pregnant?"[10:33-11:06]
But let's look at what the Gospel of Luke actually says:
And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered (Luke 2:1-6).
Some translations have the word "taxed" for the Greek word apographÈ, a word that comes from the Greek verb meaning to enroll or to register. What Luke actually wrote is not that Joseph came to Bethlehem "to be taxed," but that he came "to register" in a census. In the ancient world, a census was often used to assess the amount of able-bodied males eligible for military service.
According to ancient historians, this census was for a renewal of loyalty in the form of an oath of allegiance to Caesar Augustus. In order for the oath to be taken, all adult men had to be registered and actually sign their names to the oath of allegiance.
Josephus states, "The whole Jewish nation took an oath to be faithful to Caesar and to the interests of the king [Herod] …" He adds that "above 6000 Pharisees refused to swear." Based on Josephus' writings, this oath was sworn in the year 3 B.C. This was the census for the taking of the oath to which Luke refers. The actual census may have been conducted the year before in 4 B.C. which is in accord with most reliable dates for the time of Christ's birth and stay in Bethlehem.
Furthermore, the fact that Josephus knew the number of Pharisees who did not take the oath indicates that some sort of record was made of who did and did not take the oath. This too, seems to prove that a registration or census took place.
Other ancient historians note that the census took place in other parts of the known Roman world as well. An inscription was found in Paphlagonia (a region in North Central Asia Minor) dated to 3 B.C. stating that an oath of obedience was "taken by the inhabitants of Paphlagonia and the Roman businessmen dwelling among them."
The Armenian historian, Moses of Khorene, stated that the native sources he had available showed that in the year of Abgar, king of Armenia in 3 B.C., a census brought Roman agents "to Armenia, bringing the image of Augustus Caesar, which they set up in every temple." (Martin, Ernest L., The Star That Astonished the World, ©1996, ASK Publications; Portland, OR, p.185.)
For a fascinating look at the historical reliability of the Gospels' nativity accounts, we recommend the Ernest L. Martin's book, The Star That Astonished the World, (1996, ASK Publications, Portland, OR).
So it is even more amazing that Peter Jennings would sweep aside this evidence only to tell his viewers:
"Now there is no record outside the Gospel that the Emperor Caesar Augustus ordered such a tax."
In order for Jesus to claim to be the Messiah, the Son of God, He would have to be born of a virgin in Bethlehem according to Old Testament prophecies.

Amazing Grace: The History and Theology of Calvinism (DVD)
Download the Free Study Guide!
Just what is Calvinism?
Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won't evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God's sovereignty and man's responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists embrace the teaching of predestination and election and deny free will theology?
This is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. Hosted by Eric Holmberg, this fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten "Sunday-school-sized" sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer.

Go Stand Speak (DVD)
With "preaching to the lost" being such a basic foundation of Christianity, why do many in the church seem to be apathetic on this issue of preaching in highways and byways of towns and cities?
Is it biblical to stand in the public places of the world and proclaim the gospel, regardless if people want to hear it or not?
Does the Bible really call church pastors, leaders and evangelists to proclaim the gospel in the public square as part of obedience to the Great Commission, or is public preaching something that is outdated and not applicable for our day and age?
These any many other questions are answered in this documentary.

The Beast of Revelation: Identified (DVD)
Who is the dreaded beast of Revelation?
Now at last, a plausible candidate for this personification of evil incarnate has been identified (or re-identified).

Historical footage and other graphics are used to illustrate the lecture Dr. Gentry presented at the 1999 Ligonier Conference in Orlando, Florida. It is followed by a one-hour question and answer session addressing the key concerns and objections typically raised in response to his position. This presentation also features an introduction that touches on not only the confusion and controversy surrounding this issue — but just why it may well be one of the most significant issues facing the Church today.
Ideal for group meetings, personal Bible study — for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of John's famous letter "… to the seven churches which are in Asia." (Revelation 1:4)

The Real Jesus: A Defense of the Historicity and Divinity of Christ (DVD)
Who is the Real Jesus?
Ever since the dawn of modern rationalism, skeptics have sought to use textual criticism, archeology and historical reconstructions to uncover the "historical Jesus" — a wise teacher who said many wonderful things, but fulfilled no prophecies, performed no miracles and certainly did not rise from the dead in triumph over sin.
Over the past 100 years, however, startling discoveries in biblical archeology and scholarship have all but vanquished the faulty assumptions of these doubting modernists. Regrettably, these discoveries have often been ignored by the skeptics as well as by the popular media. As a result, the liberal view still holds sway in universities and impacts the culture and even much of the church.
The Real Jesus explodes the myths of these critics and the movies, books and television programs that have popularized their views. Presented in ten parts — perfect for individual, family and classroom study — viewers will be challenged to go deeper in their knowledge of Christ in order to be able to defend their faith and present the truth to a skeptical modern world – that the Jesus of the Gospels is the Jesus of history — "the same yesterday, today and forever" (Hebrews 13:8). He is the real Jesus.
Speakers include: George Grant, Ted Baehr, Stephen Mansfield, Raymond Ortlund, Phil Kayser, David Lutzweiler, Jay Grimstead, J.P. Holding, and Eric Holmberg.
Ten parts, over two hours of instruction!

Report: Two-thirds of Millionaires left Britain to avoid 50p tax rate resulting in billions in lost revenue for UK government
**Written by Doug Powers
As many clamor to jack up taxes on "the rich" in the US, here's the latest episode of "Cautionary Tales from Across the Pond":
In the 2009-10 tax year, more than 16,000 people declared an annual income of more than £1 million to HM Revenue and Customs.
This number fell to just 6,000 after Gordon Brown introduced the new 50p top rate of income tax shortly before the last general election.
The figures have been seized upon by the Conservatives to claim that increasing the highest rate of tax actually led to a loss in revenues for the Government.
It is believed that rich Britons moved abroad or took steps to avoid paying the new levy by reducing their taxable incomes.
George Osborne, the Chancellor, announced in the Budget earlier this year that the 50p top rate will be reduced to 45p from next April.
Since the announcement, the number of people declaring annual incomes of more than £1 million has risen to 10,000.
However, the number of million-pound earners is still far below the level recorded even at the height of the recession and financial crisis.
Far from raising funds, it actually cost the UK £7 billion in lost tax revenue.
In U.S. currency that's over $11 billion in lost revenue because of a shortsighted attempt to bring in more revenue. France has seen a similar reaction to their tax policies.
In the U.S., the money shifting is underway in anticipation of increased taxes starting at the beginning of 2013.
It's argued that even if the "Bush cuts" expire and taxes go up in the U.S., America's rates will still be well below those of most European countries. However, U.S. policy should be to find ways to encourage those leaving countries with high tax rates to bring their cash to America. Instead the recommendations from the White House and congressional Democrats revolve around how the U.S. can more quickly resemble the places from which that money is fleeing. Bad idea.

To me, the changes are one big blur now, I barely got used to Hyperion and read in awe about the new space that is to come.
For our part, the changes have been good. Hyperion brought us this Rokh, we had watched the pilot move around in his hole. When he jumped his capsule to into High Security space, we knew he will be returning and I positioned a bubble-spewing Flycatcher on the inside. Fights on high-sec holes used to be pointless (no pun intended) since the victim could easily slow-boat the 2km or so back into the 5km jump distance. Battleships are now spat out 15km away from the hole and with any luck (ok, and 4 webs + 2 bubbles) they don't make it. It also helps to turn the tank on and shoot back – neither of which this harmless resident did.
Talking about harmless, Wormholes have always attracted the adventurous, the reckless but also the dangerous and intelligent. When you see a Venture on D-scan in a hole that had recently seen significant activity you assume its a trap, right? And of course we bite and duly whack a 4 day old character by accident.
With new players, I tend to convo them and explain what happens. Most of the time they turn out to be quite cool and relaxed about it all. It tends to go like this:
Taiguen Digrenalt > Sup
Epigene > just wondering – are you a new guy?
Epigene > or an alt of someone?
Taiguen Digrenalt > Yup
Taiguen Digrenalt > New guy
Epigene > really, no BS?
Taiguen Digrenalt > I imagine you were one of the guys that killed me back there
Taiguen Digrenalt > Yah, no BS
Epigene > possibly, not sure
Epigene > ok, my guys feel sorry about that :)
Epigene > this was pretty gutsy of you to run wormhole as a new guy
Epigene > who taught you?
Taiguen Digrenalt > Figured going though the wormholes was a better way of getting ores.
Epigene > they are – but its very dangerous
Taiguen Digrenalt > I just followed the tutorials, found a wormhole…and YOLO!
Taiguen Digrenalt > :P
Epigene > well, you experienced EVE
Epigene > check your wallet
Taiguen Digrenalt > Yep.
Taiguen Digrenalt > Hoshi.
Epigene > do you know about D-scan?
Taiguen Digrenalt > Not to my knowledge
Epigene > ok, I think we need to work a little bit
Epigene > well, I suggest you continue with the tutorials – next time when you want to come to a WH, call me
Epigene > we'll talk you through it
Taiguen Digrenalt > Oh, well thanks. :)
Epigene > no worries. thanks for being a good sport
Epigene > take care and fly dangerously
I wired him 10 million ISK, a tad (ok, a LOT) more than what his venture was worth. The 10mil ISK correspond to 10 minutes of PI for me but I remember the miner who fleeted my newb self one night long ago and wired me ISK just to get me started. It was his kindness that kept me in the game. Could Taiguen have lied? Sure, maybe he was an alt of a bitter vet but I choose not to believe it.
The recent updates to scanning sites seemed to have nearly doubled the number of signatures in our C3 neighbors. These nullsec-Data and Relic sites are sort of interesting as a solo pilot but of course they are even more dangerous than in nullsec. No local means, you really need to have a good idea what is going on around you.
Which this gentleman did not. I found him inside a C3 hacking site zooming around at pretty high speed. Locking / killing an agile Covert Operations ship is not that easy but our combination of fast locking ships and bubbles from my Flycatcher put a sudden end to his adventure. This time, we hit a more experienced character but I still wanted to make sure that he understood what happened. The email exchange went as followed:
From: Epigene
To: J'Anik Cora,
Hi there,
we just killed you – we scanned around you with core probes, watched you for a while. Just wanting to tell you – watch D-scan, maybe get a friend to help you scout. Wormholes are dangerous.
Fly safe, let me know if you are looking for hints about flying in Wormholes
PS. and no, I am not an asshole looking for tears.
To which he replied
Re: Just checking in
From: J'Anik Cora
To: Epigene
I was looking at d-scan, not often enough apparently. Was a fair kill, so no tears here.
So, my conscience is clean, the reward that the wormhole changes promise come with additional risk of getting whacked.
So, what else is new? We are under wardec with some 5 man corp who gets neutral logi support from the Marmite Collective – that could be interesting. We had our drunken roam last night and desperately tried to get a fight and get killed since we were all tired – and finally got our wish. The killmail is a bit goofy, we circled the plex and were a bit bored, started shooting at each other. When finally the Succubus landed and ended us, it was a relief, we could shut down and go to sleep.
My skill queue is now 50+ days, not because I am organized, have grand goals or something but because I travel a lot for work and the last thing I want is a message that I ran out of training half way across the country with no means to log in and fix it. I threw in some random Level V skills, that worked well for me. All I need to worry about is that I exceed my clone limit. Oh wait….
We are recruiting by the way – our Fearless Leader has his recruitment post up again. We are who we are – reasonably small and insignificant but with fun in the game and very tolerant of pilots wanting to paint the killboard in any color. We are looking for team players, pilots who want to have a good time and who see EVE what it is, a game, a hobby, a fun place to hang out with spacenerds. Come on in, Wormhole Space has never been more exciting.
Join "IOS Recruitment" for more info.
See you next week!
The title of this post refers to a weapon widely used in World War I to roll up an enemy in his entrenched position. Basically, its a hand grenade (the old fashion model, also called "potato masher") with 6 additional grenade heads wrapped around it. Pull the fuse, throw it into a trench and 4 seconds later something will have drastically changed one way or the other. Not always the way you wanted it but thus is the way of explosives.
October is tradeshow-month in my industry and hence I spend more days in hotels than at home. I discovered a neat trick: When waking up disoriented at night, check the notepaper stack next to the phone. It has the name of the hotel on it. Its a good start, it tells you where you are but not why you are there.
In my last post, I threatened to take the brakes off and suggest wild ideas that bring life back (?) to wormhole life. I even started a long, rambling post that quoted scientific papers. Just in case this blog ever gets popular, I shall post it and basements all over the world will resound with the thumps of neckbeards hitting the floor, asleep.
Instead, let me give you the tl/dr (that means, "too long, don't read" in internet parlance) right away.
Well, here we are – CCP announced changes to long distance travel in low and nullsec space. The overall intent was to create more activity in nullsec and whether that cunning plan will work or not shall be seen. A few years ago I would have found the threadnaughts amusing and might have idly followed the blogosphere for entertainment. But I just don't care. Nullsec is too far away from my wormhole and their woes shall not concern me. Sure, sure, some will unsubscribe a few of their dozen accounts but I doubt EVE will be worse off.
Its Sunday night and I just spent my 1 1/2 hour game time to scan down the chain from our hole to K-space. Not sure why I bothered, I didn't have anything to do there and virtually all holes that I encounter these days are devoid of people to trade shots with. Except of course that C6 into which I stuck my CovOps nose (I now scout with a CovOps, there are so many signatures these days I am really tired of the unbonused T3 or bombers I normally use). Anyway, the C6 was occupied – mining operation in full swing. Of course. If they were doing anything else (sleepers), they would have crushed the hole to our C4 neighbor. I warped to the POS at range but some clever positioning of a bubble with lots of combat drones scattered decloaked me. If I had been in my T3, it could have gotten ugly. But my little Helios backed up nicely and I got away without issues. The damage however was done, Legion, Legion, Proteus… spawned all around me. I banked that they didnt know where I came from and warped to zero km onto the hole home, jumped on contact and went into slow, cloaky orbit. And yes, there comes the scout, some Buzzard to check out where I went. Cloaked, mate, I am a bad pilot but not that bad.

Is Mariah Carey too much of a diva to change her children's diapers?
During an interview on Anderson Live Tuesday, Nick Cannon described what a typical day is like at home with wife Carey and their 18-month-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan.
PHOTOS: Nick and Mariah's love story
"The kids run the house. We just running and chasing after them," Cannon, 32, told Anderson Cooper. "My wife is being the diva that she is. I'm trying to keep up with them."
And when it comes time to change the twin's diapers, Cannon says the job falls on him.
"We all do it but for some reason, I get that duty a little bit more," the America's Got Talent host said. "I'm not scared of it. I go in, I put the gloves on."
PHOTOS: Quirkiest celeb baby names
Cooper also asked Cannon to share his thoughts on his wife's feud with her fellow American Idol judge Nicki Minaj in early October.
"I was a little disappointed with the producers, because that's not what American Idol is about," Cannon said about how the feud "magically" appeared on TMZ. "I felt like they fed off it a little bit."

"My wife is the classiest and strongest woman I've ever met, so she's handling it the way she's supposed to handle it."

D97 hires curriculum directors
CPS principal, nonprofit administrator tapped for posts
By Terry Dean
Oak Park elementary school District 97 has hired a Chicago Public Schools principal and an administrator with a Chicago educational nonprofit as its new curriculum directors.
The District 97 Board of Education is set, Aug. 12, to officially approve Helen Wei and Carrie Kamm as the district's newest administrators. Both will serve as curriculum and instruction directors, replacing the lone curriculum director post.
The new administrators will each oversee one middle school and its feeder elementary schools.
Kamm will oversee Brooks, Lincoln, Holmes, Whittier and Hatch. Wei (pronounced WAY) will oversee Julian, Mann, Beye, Longfellow and Irving. Kamm formerly served as mentor and resident coach at the Academy for Urban School Leadership, a teacher training organization.
Founded in 2001, the Chicago-based nonprofit provides professional development for CPS faculty. According to its website, AUSL has graduated more than 750 teachers from 35 CPS schools through its residency program.
Wei served for five years as principal of Chicago Academy Elementary School in Chicago's Portage Park neighborhood, and prior to that was an assistant principal there. The North Side school has roughly 600 students, the majority of whom, 64 percent, are Hispanic. The academy is also in AUSL's network of schools.
In an interview Friday, Wei said she applied for the D97 post wanting to move to Oak Park because of the school district and its diverse community. Wei is an Oak Park native but moved with her family to Skokie, where she grew up and attended school, when she was two years old.
"I was instantly attracted to Oak Park as a district and fascinated by the position," she said.
The new curriculum director posts are part of a revamping of the district's curriculum department. A deputy superintendent for curriculum and instruction is also expected to be hired this fall. Wei and Kamm have already met with the district's principals and start their new jobs next week. Both discussed and agreed that splitting up the schools would work best.
"We'll have an opportunity to development the department as we grow into our roles," said Wei, the mother of two young children. "It'll be a collaborative effort on how we will be working in our schools."
The district has not yet released each administrator's salary or term of service, but most administrators are on annual contracts.
Wei, 41, began her teaching career in 1996 and has worked mostly in CPS. She said she knew since high school that she wanted to be a teacher. Both of her parents were educators — her mother a schoolteacher and her father a professor in his native Taiwan. The couple immigrated to America in 1970.
Wei did her administrative studies at National-Louis University, and earned her Ph.D. from University of Wisconsin-Madison. As for other interests, Wei said she's an avid reader and spends time with her children and husband, who works in Chicago's nonprofit sector.

I hope the keep The Arts in the curriculum because, if they are threatened, we'll have to pass a referendum to save them!

Though this new model will cost more. These new directors were making more in CPS than these positions used to pay in D97. I doubt they took a big pay cut to have the honor of coming to Oak Park. And you do need to add back in the Deputy Supt. that was cut out a few years ago. I see from the job posting that SPED will be back under this position again, too. Just like 7 or 8 years ago. Everything old is new again.

This is actually a return to the model used before the current supt. downsized the dept. a few years ago. Must not have worked.
sadly taxed out from Oak Park

Don't forget about the new Deputy Super to be hired this fall which makes 3 for 1.

Only in the public sector can we figure out a way to replace one administrative $120K position with two.

Wisconsin Wedding Film | Jess + Brandon
Family and friends joined Jess and Brandon at Munson Bridge Winery for a beautiful wedding celebration. As if it were meant to be, the rain held off just long enough for Jess and Brandon to exchange vows during their outdoor ceremony and walk down the aisle as husband and wife. After dinner, the rain stopped and these two enjoyed their first dance under the stars.

Jess and her bridesmaids were pampered at the Bella Zen salon in Medford, WI before her wedding day. Though they didn't see each other before the ceremony, Jess and Brandon exchanged cards as a sweet way to share their excitement. After Jess met her father before the ceremony, they walked through the doors he built just for his daughter's special day.

Krista and Andy's Milwaukee wedding day was heartfelt and absolutely beautiful. The ceremony was held at Christ King Parish and was followed by a bridal party toast aboard the trolly on the way to the Historic Third Ward.

Now that you have yourself some pesto, you're going to mash it up with a little butter and a little blue cheese. A potato masher works wonderfully for this – so does a plain old fork. Now cook yourself up some pasta – any kind will do, but my favorite is campanelle, which has lots of nooks and crannies for the sauce to nestle into.
When the pasta is almost done, drop some chopped asparagus into the water so that is can cook just until it is crisp-tender. Scoop out a little of the pasta water and save it to make the sauce with.
Now drain the pasta and asparagus, return it to the pot and add the pesto/blue cheese/butter mixture. Stir stir stir until everything is melted. Now drizzle in just enough pasta water to make the sauce just the right amount of loose.
If you are in the mood you can scatter some chopped walnuts or toasted breadcrumbs on top – I am always in the mood for both of those things.
Or you can serve it up as is. Also delicious. And just blue cheese and buttery enough for folks to be wondering what that fabulous taste is that they just…can't…place.
(It's pesto!!)

Transform a Public Space Project: The Top 5 Ideas
Education on the GO as submitted by Rumi Samadhan
This content is brought to you by GOOD, with the support of the BMW Guggenheim Lab
In June, GOOD and the BMW Guggenheim Lab teamed up to announce the project Transform a Public Place, a call for ideas on how to make a public space in your city more comfortable.
The project closed on July 17 and we received more than 120 submissions with fascinating, groundbreaking and quirky ideas from 21 countries. We highlighted some of the innovative ideas we've received so far here, here and here. And now, we're excited to share the most inspiring ideas as selected by Maria Nicanor, curator of the BMW Guggenheim Lab, a mobile laboratory bringing together new ideas for improving urban life.
"The goal of the BMW Guggenheim Lab is to explore and inspire forward-thinking ideas for urban life," said Nicanor. "We are thrilled by the response we received to the City Forward initiative from citizens around the world. The selected ideas were chosen for their originality, resourcefulness, and potential, and we are excited to see how they develop." The BMW Guggenheim Lab will work with each of the selected designers to create and implement a plan to take their idea even further.
Idea: Ingrain Reclaimed Street Furniture Project
Submitted by: Rodrigo Caula
To recapture that lost feeling of connectedness with our environment, we set out to build a symbol of our city's metamorphosis. Through the reclamation of a 205-year-old Coastal Douglas-fir that had fallen late in 2011, our intention was to give it new life and to use its story as the foundation of a movement that seeks to better respect our precious resources. The symbolic representation of a fallen tree took the form of a public bench, which is currently on display on Granville Island in Vancouver, BC.
Idea: The Pavilion Harp
Submitted by: Wayne Switzer
The Pavilion Harp explores how a neglected pavilion located at the center of Monsignor McGolrick Park in Brooklyn, New York might be transformed into a unique musical instrument for local artists and the enjoyment of the public.
Similar to the bridge construction of most stringed instruments, A-shaped frames are held firmly against the ceiling of the existing pavilion by tensioned wires.
The resonance generated when these wires are 'played' travels into the ceiling cavity-transforming the entire pavilion body into an enormous acoustical instrument which can be heard throughout the park.
Artists from within the community can be invited to compose/perform works for this site-specific instrument- creating a new public venue for gathering in an outdoor surrounding.
Through this gentle intercession, new life is breathed into this existing unoccupied structure and the inherent music of this place is awakened.

When I look back on my short stop at Ross Errilly Friary in the countryside of County Galway near Roscommon, it feels very magical. There was something hauntingly beautiful alone about the landscape there. These church ruins sat in the midst of a farmer's fields, occupied sparsely by sheep grazing. And there was such a silence there, just the occasional bleating of a sheep or fluttering birds. It felt so removed from the world of today. One could almost imagine the roof back on that old monastery, almost imagine it as a center of life in the dark ages once more... Ross Errilly Friary (or Mainistir Ros Oirialaigh in Irish Gaelic) is designated a National Monument of the Republic of Ireland. It's recognized as a valuable piece of Irish...

County wants residents more mangrove-minded
Date: October 18, 2012
by: Alex Mahadevan | News Editor
The lagoon in Turtle Beach Park offers a unique view of a thriving mangrove habitat.
"It's really special," says Sarasota County project scientist Rachel Herman during an interview in the nearby pavilion.
But, there's one problem — the protected plants, and other species have grown so prolifically that it's possible to drive around the park and onto Blind Pass Road without knowing it exists. County Natural Resources and Parks and Recreation staff are coordinating a plan to educate the public about the coast's natural resources.
County Natural Resources project manager Matt Osterhoudt spent two recent meetings of the Sarasota Tree Advisory Council presenting historical and current statistics of mangrove trimming, which can kill the plant life if done improperly, or in excess, he said. The state has regulations in place, and the county acts as a coastal watchdog, but educating property owners about the benefits mangroves provide, and how to manage their growth, is a never-ending challenge, Herman said.
Sarasota County is in the planning stages of an innovative way to teach about trimming and other facts about mangroves, with an outdoor classroom in Turtle Beach Park. County staff or contractors would legally trim a section of the plants around the lagoon for an audience of arborists, and film it for public view.
Parks and Recreation staff clips away invasive species around the lagoon at Turtle Beach Park as part of ongoing plant management. But, right now, the plants are too dense for county staff and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection to determine how much, if any, of the mangroves can be clipped.
"I couldn't even name all the fish that rely on mangroves," Herman said. Many of the fish that anglers pull out of Sarasota Bay cut their fins among mangrove roots, and kayak tours rely on the lush green pathways and their eco-system to attract customers. .
"It's your backyard," Osterdhoudt said. "But, it's a backyard we all share."
