What To Expect From the College Process - Wrap Up
Thank you to everyone who was able to attend the "What To Expect From the College Process" Q&A last night. I loved having the chance to answer questions and clarify how the college journey works. Many questions seemed to surround the issue of testing. If you want to read more about this topic, there are multiple blog posts about it, so feel free to peruse that at your leisure.

Indianapolis NACAC Day 3
Because I didn't attend the College Board session about the redesigned SAT earlier in the conference, for today's first morning session I decided to go to "Strategic Sophomore/Junior Recruitment--Understanding the Impact of the Redesigned PSAT and SAT." Though designed for colleges, I find that attending post-secondary sessions can sometimes actually be more informative than sessions designed for high school counselors. As with the previously announced information about the new exam, some key changes on the new test include: a new focus on relevant words in context, command of evidence in reading, an essay that requires analyzing a source, math focused on 3 key areas, problems grounded in real world contexts, and some analysis of science and social sciences. There PSAT will also now be scored on the same scale as the SAT. The first redesigned exam will be offered in March of 2016 and the College Board warns there will most likely be delays in score delivery and concordance publication as the exam is carefully normed. In advance of the changes, colleges are encouraged to take an inventory of all places where SAT scores are used (beyond admission - places like course placement, financial aid, etc) and emphasize to all staff across these departments what the official stance of the college is going to be. Because decisions about what scores will be accepted are going to happen on a college by college basis, it will be essential for students and families to keep organized notes about each school's policies and procedures. This issue is of particular importance for current 10th grade students, who will be straddling the shift, having taken the current PSAT, the new PSAT (next fall) and the new SAT (Spring 2016). As a high school counselor, I am curious how student behavior will be impacted. Will 10th grade students opt to take the ACT because it has less of an 'unknown' factor. Will they instead take both versions, in the hopes of doing better on one exam compared to the other? As the panel pointed out, we can hypothesize that most colleges will continue to take whatever data makes the student look most favorable, but I'm sure plenty of people who are vulnerable to the pressure cooker machine will be fearful of picking the wrong test (old vs new).
My second session was possibly the best session I've attended this conference, mainly because the presentation was well organized and it made me ponder some philosophical questions about the industry, application process, and enrollment data. I like thinking big and this session was the type that makes your brain overflow. The session was called "Matching the Under Matched Student: Big Data and Small Colleges Offer Strategies for Success." The panel included representation from Franklin & Marshall, Carleton, and Third Coast Analytics. Anyone interested in seeing the powerpoint can download it from the Third Coast website. The session looked into how small colleges can use data to identify and recruit high achieving low income students (the ones that Hoxby and Avery identified in their study -- students who have the profile of what highly selective schools are looking for but who are not applying to highly selective colleges). Research shows that the most significant factor that prevent students in this group from going to college is family issues. Certainly this is something that colleges can't control, but if the recruitment process focuses on recruiting the family and not just the student the yield usually improves. I'm not going to regurgitate the entire session here - but the discussion got me thinking: if these small selective colleges do, in fact, find a way to yield a higher number of these low income high achieving students that were previously not applying to selective colleges, what will the trickle down effect be on the colleges they used to go to? Are we, as an industry, placing our own values (that highly selective colleges are better colleges) on these students and families when for some students the less selective school they were going to go to (where they were the most high achieving student in the pool) would have maybe been a better fit? Will we be creating a system that guarantees that the 'top' schools get better and the lower tier schools don't have a fighting chance of improving their academic profile. This isn't to say that I don't think low income students should not be actively recruited. Or that I don't encourage ElRo's own low income students to add highly selective schools to their lists. But, I fear that the study dismisses the possibility that for some students (of all ability and SES levels) a less selective school might be the right fit for them.
The final session of the conference this year was tough for me to pick. I was being very indesivie and honestly ended up just going in to the session that an admission counselor friend was also going into. The topic was similar, about the same low income high achieving students and their enrollment patterns. Though the topic was similar to the earlier session, the presentation and information was, in fact, different. The key takeaway was that even though we aim to have higher education act as a bridge to help level the playing field for low income students, trends indicate that barriers remain and there is still much work to be done.
As always, I thank the PTA for their generous support in sponsoring my trip to NACAC. As someone that works in an 'office of one' it is deeply meaningful for me to get to spend a few days per year in a large group of colleagues, peers, and friends. I think Indianapolis was a wonderful host city and I am already looking forward to next year in San Diego.

Indianapolis NACAC Day 2
Day two got off to an early start with a public colleges of Virginia breakfast this morning. You might remember my experience visiting VCU two summers ago, and that helped push me over the edge to arrive early today to hear about the other public options in Virginia. As with most states, I think the attention gets placed on one or two (usually land grant) universities and it can be easy to forget just how diverse the public options are across the country. The breakfast was a good reminder that there are options beyond just the things you've heard of. Thanks to the public colleges of Virginia for hosting!
My first session this morning was the Common Application session - one that in year's past has been packed and fully of passionate debate. This year's session was surprisingly empty, perhaps a sign that the issues and apologies from last year are in the past. Admittedly, I would have preferred the presentation focus a bit more on showing us the inside of the application, particularly new updates, but there was an opportunity to share ideas with the CEO and other key CA players.
Second, I attended the "Closer Look at Early Action Admissions: Inside the College Admissions Office," an inside look at the Early programs at Boston College, University of Michigan, MIT, and Notre Dame. One theme seemed to be that highly selective schools are erring more and more on the side of caution, being cautious about filling too much of the class through Early Action. At two of the three schools that provided data, the yield was significantly higher (about 10 points) for EA applicants. But it was also stressed that while statistically odds of admission in early can be higher, the profile of admitted EA students is consistent with that of students admitted in the regular round. The issue of deferring EA students was defended as a necessary evil, as EA applicants are 'tightly bunched' making it near impossible to predict who will be admissible in the general pool. For all schools that provided data, there were students deferred and then later admitted, confirming that defer really does not automatically mean deny.
My last session of the day was actually a departure for me, instead of attending an educational session I attended a featured speaker presentation by Madeline Levine. Levine is an author and psychologist who specializes in issues facing students of affluent families. She wrote a book called "The Price of Privilege" and spoke about the increased chance of students from wealthy communities facing mental health issues. She is particularly interested in looking at the pressures that parents place on their children and a recent trend of pressures student place on themselves. The golden ticket is seen to be an Ivy League education, but 17% of Ivy League students are going back to their rooms and self injuring. How can we teach kids to have successful failures? How can we use the opportunities life provides to have kids cope with developmentally appropriate responses to stress? Only 7% of parents think that their children use drugs or alcohol to cope with stress - when asked 73% of kids reported using drugs and alcohol to cope with stress (with the largest stressor being academics). Instead of wanting kids who are perfect at everything, parents should embrace the natural strengths in their kids. A recent study suggests that to reach top executive corporate levels, individuals only need be experts in 3 out of 16 competencies. No one is perfect and no one needs to be. Levine says that affluent communities want to live in a world where average doesn't exist. But that isn't real life and, with thought, people will see that they are actually average at most things. And that is ok. Her final slide summarized it well in saying "While we all hope that our children will do well in school, we hope with even greater fervor that they will do well in life." Levine was a lovely speaker and I plan to read her book after hearing her speak.
I look forward to the final day tomorrow (and my final volunteer shift at the conference social).

Wu Tang Clan - Life Changes
Artist: Wu Tang Clan
Producer: RZA
Album: 8 Diagrams
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 14 votes )
The first of several ODB-remembrance songs off the December-bound 8 Diagrams has surfaced. Life Changes, which details the individual thoughts of six Clan members, both opens and closes with a quote from the legendary Ol' Dirty Bastard. While Wu-Tang's new album will be the first without their deceased companion, it is clear that through their lyrics and emotion the spirit of Dirt McGirt will always live on. RZA of course heads up the production for Life Changes and is able to create a memorable mood with a piano-percussion mixture. RIP Russell Tyrone Jones (November 15, 1968 - November 13, 2004).

Former New York Governor George Pataki, mulling a run for the Republican presidential nomination, will attend a GOP picnic in Iowa this weekend to make a "major announcement."
George Pataki, the former New York governor, is considering a run for the Republican presidential nomination, and there are reports he is heading to Iowa this weekend to make a "major announcement."
Pataki flirted with the idea of running for the White House four years ago, and is again thinking about jumping into the GOP race
More US news from GlobalPost: Jon Huntsman says he is open to a deal with "unelectable" Bachmann
Opinion from GlobalPost: America needs a jobs program — now
Pataki heads to Iowa on Saturday where he will speak at the Polk County GOP picnic at the Iowa State fairgrounds in Des Moines, CNN reports. Iowa is where the caucus and primary calendar kicks off.
"Governor Pataki is seriously considering getting into the 2012 race," his former communications director, David Catalfamo, told Bloomberg. "He is deeply disappointed by President Obama's utter failure of leadership on the debt issue and in the lack of real solutions being offered by the current Republican field of candidates."
Pataki, 65, was elected governor of New York in 1994 and re-elected in 1998 and 2002. He is known as a moderate, pro-choice Republican.
Earlier this year he ruled out a run in 2012, but then reversed his position and has since been reaching out to potential supporters in New Hampshire, the Boston Globe says.

US factory orders up 0.8 percent in OctoberBy MARTIN CRUTSINGER
The Associated Press | December 06,2012AP PHOTO
Employees work at a shipping area of Generac Power Systems, Inc., in Whitewater, Wis., Friday. Orders to U.S. factories rose modestly in October, helped by a big gain in demand for equipment that reflects business investment plans. Factory orders edged up 0.8 percent in October, the Commerce Department said Wednesday.WASHINGTON Orders to U.S. factories rose modestly in October, helped by a big gain in demand for equipment that reflects business investment plans.
Factory orders edged up 0.8 percent in October, the Commerce Department said Wednesday. The increase slowed from a 4.5 percent jump in September.
Orders for core capital goods, a category viewed as a good proxy for business investment plans, increased 2.9 percent in October, the biggest increase in eight months. That represented an upward revision from an initial estimate of 1.7 percent. The increase came after big declines in the investment category this summer.
Orders for durable goods rose 0.5 percent in October, up from a preliminary estimate of no gain, while orders for nondurable goods, items such as chemicals and paper, were up 1.1 percent.
Businesses have been holding back on investment plans because they are worried about the fiscal cliff. Thats the name for sharp tax increases and federal spending cuts that will take effect in January if Congress and the Obama administration do not reach a budget deal by then to avert them.
There is also more caution because of slower growth overseas and Europes debt crisis. Those developments have cut into U.S. exports and corporate profits.
The 2.9 percent rise in orders for core capital goods in October was the biggest one-month gain since a similar increase last February. It followed a 0.5 percent drop in September and marked only the second advance in the past five months.
U.S. manufacturing shrank in November to the weakest level since July 2009, according to a survey released Monday by the Institute for Supply Management. Worries about automatic tax increases in the New Year cut demand for factory orders and manufacturing jobs.
Consumers may also be getting nervous about higher taxes. Economists cited the fiscal cliff as a key reason consumer spending fell in October by the most since May.
When consumers cut back on spending, businesses typically reduce their pace of restocking. Both trends are expected to slow economic growth at the end of the year.
The economy grew from July through September at an annual rate of 2.7 percent, largely because of strong growth in inventories. Most economists predict growth is slowing in the current October-December quarter to a rate below 2 percent.
However, many economists believe growth will pick up in 2013 if Washington is able to resolve its budget dispute without inflicting serious harm on the economy.
Many economists also say that the economy will receive a boost from continued gains in housing construction and from stronger consumer spending that will reflect increases in employment.MORE IN National / World BusinessDr. Timothy Houchin became the medical director for Rutland Mental Health Services on Oct. 31.

Photographic glass plates Indian hunting trip
Just some nice old photographic plates described a few blog posts ago "old photographic glass plates" I now have the permission to show you what was in those boxes!
The hunting trip: If you had the money, you booked your transport and gathered a few mates and, off hunting you will go. These were times of men, showing they were real men and what they could do and what "trophies" they could shoot.
It was probably safer to shoot wild animals from up high in a tree, hence the need to build yourself a suitable hunting platform around a sturdy trunk.
Once you bagged your Tiger you could pose for your photo and then have the jungle Sherpa's carry it home for you.
Jungle Sherpa's carrying home the trophies. Of course hunting was not limited to tigers, anything that moved, there was plentiful supply back then. Including the Asian bear.
Above is a Boar and the magnificent Leopard
After the animals were shot and carried home they were the prepared for display or sale.
The above images were kindly donated for display by one of my clients. I do not condone hunting of any kind these are simply a record of what used to happen and a photos of historic interest.
To see where these plates came from and what they were boxed in, see my post on "old photographic glass plates"
Rare Daguerreotype discovered of young Abraham Lincoln
Could this be a new discovery of an original Daguerreotype of the young Abraham Lincoln?
A newly discovered Daguerreotype was found by Justin Whiting of, Norwich Norfolk United Kingdom, could be a new photographic piece in Abraham Lincoln's historic life story.
Purchased on Ebay from a power seller of Daguerreotypes Justin was sure it reminded him of someone. He'd been searching for an image like this for sometime. In his mind it could be no one else other than a young Abraham Lincoln!
Was it? Could it be? At a casual glance there is a good resemblance.
He set about the process verifying the image by asking American museums if they were willing to help identify the man in the image.
Images get flipped and faces point in different directions and then get flipped. Why? Because sometimes you see the mirror image of Abe as he was captured on the Daguerreotypes and sometimes these images have been flipped to show the image as it would be if you were looking straight at him. In this case its possible that the mole is on the right side of the left face.
The Find: Justin has always had a great interest in finding photographs of famous historic figures from America. He was taking his daily browse through "carte de visite" or visiting cards on eBay but got distracted by some daguerreotypes. He saw an interesting picture titled "1/6 daguerreotype tinted blue 1840's". Justin purchased the item from the e-seller 'salvatorparadise', on 29/06/2011 for about $140.
The Daguerreotype showed an extremely tall man in a fine suit. He did a some research and found matching physical details to Abraham Lincoln, like the height and body build, the way his eyes sat differently. In the reference photographs Justin noticed Abraham Lincoln has some defining features like the large bump on his right cheek, his left eye socket was higher than the right. These all matched, even his nose and lips. Abraham Lincoln had a thin top lip and a fat bottom lip, the same seemed to be the case in the Daguerreotype.
He went on to discover other matching features such as Lincolns very different ears, the left side was slightly higher then the right. He also had other features such as his jaw buckled in, on the low right side and his right eye drifted towards his nose, the condition was called 'strabismus'. It was these matching features that made him believe he was looking at a Young Abraham Lincoln. The final clue was the suit he was wearing, which was completely in keeping with Lincolns occupation as a Lawyer..
The stormy faced scholar. At the same time there was an auction going for another daguerreotype by the same seller which he missed but managed to contact the buyer. This second image appears to be a younger Reverend Owen Lovejoy 1840. "'stormy faced scholar". He contacted the buyer who was a bit reluctant to sell it as it had been cleaned at a considerable cost. After haggling on the phone Justin managed to obtain the photograph as well. He already knew Owen Lovejoy was a dear friend to Lincoln and that he used to read the bible to Lincoln regularly at his home. The photograph was not in the best of shape even after it was cleaned as the seals are missing. This meant it had oxidised and darkened slowly over time. The facial features are still visible as is the hairline which seems to be a very accurate match to Reverend Owen Lovejoy. The open book in the photo which symbolises the bible as it an open book. Justin believes he is making a statement that this is his passion, he is a reverend and a preacher of the bible.
American's uninterested. After buying both daguerreotypes Justin contacted some museums in America to present his findings. He was excepting some very positive responses. Instead he was shunned by one museum saying it was not Lincoln and looked nothing like him. They offered no further explanation other than "his hair looks ridiculous". He soon realised It was not going to be easy, the American museums was very dismissive. with attitude of, here we go another picture claiming to be Lincoln, "we get loads" they said.
Undeterred Justin decided to hunt for someone who can offer a more scientific investigation to match the facial features. The scientific road now appears to be the only answer. He has started proceedings with the facial recognition process. He asked me to help put this blog together to the message out there if anyone can help.
A personal opinion – Why i featured this on my blog?
I feel this is him based on what i can see and line up in my software. The most interesting for me is the ear print match. Ears are unique or so The National Training Centre for Scientific Support to Crime Investigation NTCSSCI says "no two ears are exactly the same". The ear print for me is the clincher.

1902 Toledo Steam Carriage on 871 Mile journey
Here are two restored photos from a batch, telling the amazing story of a Toledo Steam Carriage on 871 Mile journey!
1902 Newspaper Article reads
Feb: "C.E. De Long, of Hot Springs, Ark., and J.E. Saules, of Toledo, Ohio, who started from Toledo in a "Toledo" steam carriage the day before Christmas, are reported to have reached Little Rock, Ark., on the 6th (February) , having been compelled to take the train from Memphis to Hot Springs in consequence of the heavy rains which had flooded the Mississippi bottoms and made the roads impassable. They remained in Little Rock until February 10, when they proceeded on their way by automobile."
Lets look at this article in more detail. It was Christmas eve 1902. Weather for that year was cold, you can see ice on the mud puddles in the above image. It must have been below freezing! Now take a look at the distance from Toledo, Ohio to Hot Springs, Arkansas on Google and you get 871 miles. That is by modern roads! Back then the distance would have been much more. These impressive machines probably averaged around 4.1 Miles and hour on the flat without terrain and puddles and mud, hills, weather, break downs, maintenance etc. It took them the best part of 6 weeks to make this journey! Now that is an adventure!
The journey was no doubt made even longer by setting up a tripod and composing and taking photos along the way!
A very kind thank you to Nick Howell for providing the images from his restoration order. You can read more about these machines on toledosattic.org

You need to fit the Sony FA-CS1M adapter to the shoe, and then connect that to the flash with the FA-EC1AM cable.

BRANDfog, a social media leadership branding firm that makes C-suite executives more visible, powerful and influential across the Web, today announced the release of the 2013 CEO, Social Media and Leadership Survey. The objective of the survey was to better understand C-suite social media strategy and to measure its effect on leadership, brand image, and brand trust.
Survey results demonstrated the growing importance of social media C-suite engagement and validated the assumption that social media provides an opportunity for brand leaders to build better connections with customers, employees and shareholders.
Specifically, survey results show:
- 80.6% of respondents believe that social media is an important communications channel for CEOs to engage with customers and investors
- 68.7% of respondents believe that C-suite social media engagement enhances the perception that a brand is honest and trustworthy
- 83.9% believe that CEO social media engagement is an effective tool to increase brand loyalty
Survey results also indicate that when C-suite social media engagement is properly managed, nearly 70% of employees believe that it makes CEOs more effective leaders. Employees of companies that have developed a strategy and assigned accountability for executive social media engagement were far more likely to recognize the benefits of that engagement.
"We are witnessing a fundamental shift in the culture of modern leadership, brought upon by social media but sustained by the strategic inventiveness of smart CEOs," said BRANDfog CEO Ann Charles. "The role of the CEO has been transformed by social media and CEOs have no choice but to become more visible, social, and accessible than ever before."
Survey results also demonstrate that senior business leaders are in the early stages of social media adoption; but ramp-up in the C-suite remains slow. Risk aversion, time constraints, fear of negative feedback, and a lack of a social media strategy are the primary barriers to social media engagement for CEOs.
"While social media is new, the nexus between communication and leadership is not", Charles continued. "Many of the world's greatest leaders – from Winston Churchill to Martin Luther King Jr. to Steve Jobs – have been highly skilled communicators. What's different is the competitive landscape – customers, investors and stakeholders now expect to have access to the insights and vision of CEOs. C-suite executives who ignore this trend miss an enormous opportunity to shape ongoing conversations about their individual and corporate brands, and do so at their peril."
The full results of the survey can be found here.

For a choice of sports watch British Eurosport
Advantages: Covers popular and the more obscure sports and its free
Disadvantages: too much advertising
...an assortment of channels.
I sacrifice watching my football team and make do with whatever is available on the normal TV channels.
British Eurosport is a bit low budget, it has some very annoying advertising and the advert breaks seem to last ages. But in its defence I watch it quite a bit, it covers all the sports I like which hardly get an airing on BBC and ITV.
Some examples are:-

Answer:OUTSIDE cleaning tips:
Waxing external painted metal surfaces helps provide
rust protection. Do not wax plastic parts. Wax painted
metal surfaces at least twice a year using appliance wax
(or auto paste wax). Apply wax with a clean, soft cloth.
Do not use wax on stainless steel exteriors. Use a product
specially designed for polishing stainless steel appliances,
or clean with a soft cloth or clean sponge and a mild
detergent dissolved in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a
soft cloth.
NOTE: Avoid door surface contact with chemical
products that contain Phosphate or Chlorine,
such as degraders, detergents (containing TSP)
and bleaches.

If the unit was purchased from Best Buy, you can either contact your Sales Associate and ask him that question or you can call Best Buy's Geek Squad and ask them what the installers can or cannot do since they are providing you the installation services and they have their own guidelines and regulations on how they do the installation.

How do you level the refrigerator?
You receive instructions on how to raise or lower the individual doors, however the refrigerator leans toward the back and doesn't show you how to level the entire refrigerator. I do not see any legs on the back, just castors.

Answer:That is correct; there are no leveling legs on the back of a refrigerator cabinet. The only leveling adjustments available on this refrigerator are either for the door, on the hinges, or the leveling feet on the front of the unit. If you have additional questions about this matter, please contact our Customer Interactive Center at 800-243-0000.

Answer:It is recommended that, when the unit is first installed, the freezer temperature should be set to 0 degrees Fahrenheit, while the refrigerator should be set to 37 degrees. Once the unit reaches these temperatures, you may change the setting to however you would prefer.

Luckily the lines signing up were long and I was still hungry, so I did not sign on the dotted line.
