At last night's 12-12-12 concert for Sandy Relief at The Madison Square Garden, Paul McCartney performed a "new song" with members of Nirvana. The performance marked a reunion for the late Kurt Cobain's band featuring surviving members Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic. The duo has not performed together in 20 years. Check out the performance below!
The "12-12-12" concert was distributed worldwide to nearly two billion people through television feeds, radio and online streaming, and is presented by Chase and all proceeds will benefit the Robin Hood Relief Fund. The concert was available to 114 million television households on 37 channels in the US and to more than 400 million television households outside the country via networks and feeds in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia.
The concert is being produced by James Dolan, Executive Chairman of The Madison Square Garden Company; John Sykes, President of Clear Channel Entertainment Enterprises; and Harvey Weinstein, Co-Founder and Chairman of The Weinstein Company.
Thanks to the generosity of concert organizers, sponsors, and Robin Hood's board of directors, every single penny from ticket purchases and donations will go to organizations serving the victims of Hurricane Sandy through the Robin Hood Relief Fund. The Robin Hood Relief Fund provides money, material and know-how to local organizations that are serving families and individuals in the regions hardest hit by the storm.

Obama is out with his public eating ribs and being an all around great guy. Just look at him – loving it, and we love him.
I can't believe this – it's just further proof of how uncaring our president really is. He is out eating ribs and probably not even paying for them, while the rest of us struggle to get by and most of the country is either unemployed, going hungry or both.
Heck Yeah!
Remember Flip Wilson and his skit where he said "The Devil Made Me Do It?" Well, I can't help but think of that whenever I hear someone reacting to a pop-up on their screen.
First, I thought pop-ups were all but gone. You used to go to a particular site and suddenly like 50 windows would pop open – mostly pictures or ads. Once browsers became more intelligent, they caught all of that in the background and we really didn't notice them anymore. The new pop-ups are more insidious than those. The are in the form of message boxes or just off the screen chat looking windows or nasty skull and crossbones warning messages telling you you are infected or something awful has happened to your computer. Personally, whenever I do see one of these messages I usually investigate it a little trying to see where the message is coming from, or instead I just open up task manager and kill all of my Chrome or Internet Explorer tasks and start over.
What I am actually surprised about, however, are the number of people who follow-up with whatever the message told them to do. I was involved in two similar stories lately and heard about a third. The first two were almost identical. The user sees a popup telling them something is wrong or that their banking password is goofed up or that they have some similar issue, but instead of closing out the browser or just turning off their machines, both people actually called the number on the screen! The first case ended with "someone moving my mouse all around and then my machine wouldn't boot up anymore" and the second ended with "the guy was in my machine working and said I needed to pay him $300 to finish up". While I know you might be thinking this really can't happen, let me assure you – both of these really happened. I couldn't believe what I was hearing.
Here are a two 30,000 foot tips for most users:
#1 – NEVER call numbers that randomly pop-up on your screen. Who does that? Microsoft isn't going to ask you to call them for anything. It's probably not them.
#2 – DON'T let people into your computer if you don't know who they are. I really wasn't even up on the idea that random strangers could get into your system in the first place. Certainly, I've used remote access software before, but I didn't really expect people to randomly connect. If you ever get a notice like this and you don't know the person – DON'T let them connect to your computer. You can always hit the power switch in a pinch if you can't otherwise disconnect them.

Here is a great write up on making your vb.net windows service easy to install.
This worked the first time I tried it, which I can't say for every instruction list I find on the "Internets".
This article describes how to create a setup project for a Windows Service application (formerly named an "NT service"). To do this, you must first create a solution that contains a simple Windows Service project that writes an entry to its application log. You then add a setup project to the solution to install the Window Service. Finally, you start the service. You can start the service by using the Services item in the Administrative Tools folder in the Start menu.
The following list outlines the recommended hardware, software, network infrastructure, and service packs that you must have:
This article also assumes that the user account that you use to install and to run this service has the permissions that you must have to install and to start services, and also has the permissions that you must have to access the event log.
This section describes how to create a Windows Service project, and how to use a compiled setup project to install the Windows Service.
EventLog.WriteEntry("My simple service started.");
After you complete the steps in the previous section to configure the Windows Service project, follow these steps to add a deployment project that packages the service application so that the service application can be installed:

The MF 2012 Hall of Shame
From big one-time blunders to all-out train wrecks, here are the pop culture characters that had us shaking our heads this year.
Follow 2 / 12
1. Rex Ryan
The week-to-week train wreck that was the 2012 New York Jets season is finally over. (Their feeble attempt to steal a playoff spot late in the year brings to mind a dying piece of roadkill begging to be run over again. Thank you, Tennessee Titans, for slamming the pedal.) There's plenty of blame fingers to point throughout the entire organization, but "Skinny" Rex Ryan really takes the cake. His stubborn refusal to bench Mark Sanchez after every soul-crushing performance was only worsened by his contrived, sound-byte desperate, postgame pressers. "I was going to say we got our butt kicked, but really, we got our ass kicked," said coach after a 34-0 loss to the 49ers. Thanks for clearing that up, Rexy.

Restoring Life's
Beautiful Music
Hope and Restoration Pathways is a nonprofit Christian Counseling agency offering a faith-based approach to emotional healing and personal growth. Our distinctive approach draws from traditional Christian values and beliefs in order to facilitate healing and restoration. While this approach will be familiar and comforting to the Christian who values faith, it is also often welcomed by the individual seeking a greater understanding of God but who has yet to define their understanding of His role in their life. Christian counseling differs from a strictly secular approach to counseling in that the Christian therapist does not only rely upon sound therapeutic techniques and principles to facilitate change in the individual or couple, but also relies upon Biblical principles and the leading of the Holy Spirit for direction and discernment when addressing areas of concern.
All of us need help at times in our lives, and we believe that no problem is too complex for God's love to overcome. The goal of our licensed counselors is to provide professional Christian counseling services that draw upon sound Biblical principles and rely upon the work of the Holy Spirit to accomplish complete personal and spiritual transformation. We understand that the challenges of life can become too much for you to handle on you own, and we desire to partner with you to seek restoration and healing during difficult times.
Christian Counselors at HARP are qualified to provide services to all age groups, including children and teens. HARP counselors provide individual, marital, and family counseling services for a wide range of issues including depression, anxiety, traumatic life events, domestic violence, divorce, parenting, grief, substance abuse, among other issues.
HARP therapists utilize numerous therapeutic techniques in order to assist the client toward the ultimate goal of healing and restoration: play therapy, art therapy, traditional talk therapy, intercessory prayer, and application of scripture, among other approaches. With younger clients in particular, HARP clinicians will utilize play therapy and structured activities to allow children to naturally open up and talk about their feelings. Preteens and adolescents often also respond well to play therapy. For adults who find verbal expression of their emotional struggles too painful, HARP clinicians may utilize art therapy modalities. The majority of adult clients will benefit from a traditional talk therapy approach to counseling.
At HARP we believe that each person is like a hand-crafted stringed instrument uniquely created by God to make beautiful music with their individual song. Sometimes our instrument ends up with some broken strings. Our hope is that HARP can help repair those broken strings to enable peoples' lives to make beautiful music again.
HARP's office is centrally located in Clayton, North Carolina and serves individuals from Johnston, Wake, and Harnett counties. Our office can be reached within twenty to thirty minutes from many locations within the cities of Selma, Smithfield, Garner, Benson, Princeton, Knightdale, and Raleigh.

I felt that he wasn't walking well and I thought that was due to some injuries that caused that. I also noticed that when he came to speak, that he seemed, I don't want to say out of breath, but he was sweating and all that. I didn't think too much of it on the night and thought maybe he was nervous or whatever, but I just didn't feel like there was something wrong with him and I had no idea whatsoever as to what was to follow, that was quite a shock." - Bruno Sammartino discusses Ultimate Warrior condition before death

April 29, 2014
In a very touching display, Chris Masters did a tribute to the Ultimate Warrior, whose death rocked the world of professional wrestling earlier this month. While working an independent wrestling show in England, Masters dressed up as Ultimate Warrior, use his theme song, performed his trademark running entrance and even wrestled the same style.
April 28, 2014
Back in 2000, the world of professional wrestling was saddened by the death of Masakazu Fukuda. While working a tournament match, Fukuda was hit by a flying elbow drop from Katsuyori Shibata. The blow proved to be fatal, as Fukuda had to be taken to the hospital, where he died a couple of days later. New Japan finished the tournament and dedicated the event in his honor.
April 28, 2014
Earlier tonight, Jim Ross posted on Twitter about the death of Lee Marshall, his former colleague in WCW. While his work in professional wrestling will forever be remembered by many, it is his work as the voice of Tony the Tiger, the iconic cereal character, that the world knows him for.
April 27, 2014
Upon finding out about the death of his father, Daniel Bryan was given time off by WWE to mourn with his family. He skipped out on Smackdown and the live events this past week, and rumors had it that WWE was willing to let him stay off the road until Extreme Rules 2014. Reports are surfacing, though, that Bryan is now scheduled for Monday Night Raw and Smackdown this week.

April 26, 2014
Since they are now one of the more entertaining acts in the industry, Miz and Damien Sandow are the favorites to win the WWE tag team championship at Survivor Series 2014. Cody Rhodes and Goldust have lost a good amount of momentum, mainly due to the creative department not putting much focus on them. The feeling is that Miz and Sandow can help bring some energy back into the tag team division.
November 23, 2014
If you watched WWE NXT Takeover last night, you know that Tyler Breeze failed to win the heavyweight championship. However, management might have something better for him. Reports have surfaced that Breeze is on the verge of being given a promotion to the main roster, where the cocky character will be joining the entourage of the Miz, which already features Damien Sandow.
September 12, 2014
On Monday Night Raw this week, fans witnessed Mark Henry making his return and attacking Damien Sandow. The belief is that he will be given a slight push from WWE, so that he can be utilized in an upcoming feud with Alexander Rusev, who desperately needs people to work against after he is done with Jack Swagger. Beating a performer as big as Henry should help further establish Rusev as a top level heel.
August 5, 2014
Since he has shown a willingness to not only do what is asked of him but to actually put in great effort in doing so, Damien Sandow has been earning a good amount of praise backstage by his peers in WWE. They are impressed by the fact that he has not grown frustrated with the new gimmick. Unfortunately for Sandow, though, management does not feel that he deserves a real push at the moment.
July 28, 2014
In a rather interesting move, management has removed Adam Rose and Damien Sandow from the Intercontinental Championship battle royal at WWE Battleground 2014. No word yet on why they were pulled from the match, but rumors are floating around that the two of them could be given a singles match on the pay per view. As of right now, there are twenty remaining contestants competing for the belt.
July 16, 2014
Rumors are floating around right now that Adam Rose is expected to replace Santino Marella as the comedy routine on Monday Night Raw and Smackdown. However, those reporting on the speculation are failing to remember that Damien Sandow actually owns that role in WWE at the moment. Management is still not sold on Rose, so the chances of him being moved above Sandow isn't very high at the moment.
July 11, 2014
Rumors going around right now is that the impersonation gimmick that Damien Sandow has been doing is basically a way for the creative department to appease Vince McMahon, who has been known to find humor in stuff like this. To his credit, Sandow has embraced the role, in hopes that it will convince WWE to finally give him the push that he deserves.
July 7, 2014
According to backstage rumors, Adam Rose is clinging on by a thread since key members of WWE management, including Vince McMahon and producer Kevin Dunn, are not big fans of his character. Things might have gotten worse since his match at Money in the Bank 2014 against Damien Sandow was basically ignored by the live audience. Rose could be demoted from television very soon.
July 5, 2014
Some more names have been added to the upcoming WWE Intercontinental Championship battle royal. Big E, Curtis Axel, Dolph Ziggler, Rob Van Dam and Ryback are now in the match at WWE Battleground 2014. They join Kofi Kingston, Damien Sandow, Great Khali and Antonio Cesaro. As of right now, the company is favoring the idea of giving the title to Cesaro.
July 2, 2014

July 1, 2014
Since Wade Barrett is injured and will require several months on the shelf, WWE decided to strip him of the Intercontinental Championship and put it on the line in a battle royal at Battleground 2014. Four names have been confirmed so far for the match. Kofi Kingston, Damien Sandow, Great Khali and Antonio Cesaro will be involved in that match. More is expected to be added through the next few weeks.
July 1, 2014
Since WWE needed a filler segment at Money in the Bank 2014 and wanted to showcase Adam Rose a little bit, he was given a quick match against Damien Sandow, who was dressed as Paul Revere. Match was not really all that noteworthy, and Rose got the win after hitting the Party Foul finishing move. This was a segment that belongs more on Monday Night Raw than a pay per view.
June 29, 2014
Those that watch Monday Night Raw and Smackdown are already aware that Damien Sandow is being buried by WWE. The company also decided to humiliate him a bit over the weekend at a live event in Hamilton. He was booked in three quick losses to Titus ONeil, Bo Dallas and Adam Rose within a span of a couple of minutes.
June 15, 2014
While a lot of wrestling fans weren't exactly sure who Lance Stephenson was, the move by WWE to have Damien Sandow mocking an NBA player has paid off. Several sports media outlets have picked up on the story, which gives WWE free publicity. Since Stephenson has been known to retaliate in the public, there's a chance that WWE could receive further publicity if he responds to this segment.
June 3, 2014
Since Monday Night Raw is in Indiana, WWE decided to have Damien Sandow doing a segment to taunt the fans by having him mock Lance Stephenson, who happens to play for the hometown Pacers. For those that do not follow the NBA, Stephenson recently generated a lot of headlines because he attempted to trash talk LeBron James during the playoffs and failed miserably.
June 2, 2014
As a sign of how much the company values his overseas appeal, Sami Zayn was brought on the tour of Europe with the main roster. The developmental wrestler worked matches with Damien Sandow and was actually given the win. Zayn is starting to become a regular on these overseas tour, so it would not be a stretch to see WWE promoting him to Monday Night Raw soon.
May 25, 2014
Fans who watched Monday Night Raw saw Alicia Fox throwing quite a fit at ringside after losing her match to WWE Divas Champion Paige. The company also released a video on the app, where Alicia approached Stephanie McMahon and quit the company. Early rumors floating around are that Alicia, Damien Sandow and several other WWE stars are working a story line about lower level performers being frustrated.
May 12, 2014
A video from Monday Night Raw of the segment where Hugh Jackman, who portrays Wolverine in the movies, and Dolph Ziggler attacking Damien Sandow, who was dressed as Magneto. WWE did this segment to draw in mainstream media attention.
April 30, 2014
In a hilarious segment, Damien Sandow came out on Monday Night Raw, dressed as comic character Magneto of the X-Men. He came out to interrupt Hugh Jackman, who portrays Wolverine, and Dolph Ziggler. The segment came off especially well since Sandow wore a purposely bad costume and really committed to the routine. Jackman and Ziggler ended up attacking Sandow to end the segment.
April 28, 2014
After weeks of being relegated to the developmental program, it appears that Brodus Clay is on the verge of making his return to WWE. The big man worked a live event in Kentucky for the company over the weekend, where he teamed with Damien Sandow to face Big E Langston and Mark Henry. Clay could be brought back to Monday Night Raw soon.

Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas: The Pumpkin King Game Boy Advance
- Publisher: Buena Vista Interactive
- Release Date: Oct 10, 2005
- Summary: Much to the dismay of Jack Skellington and the citizens of Halloween Town, unusual bugs have started to infest their township. At the root of this ever-increasing bug invasion is Oogie Boogie, a former holiday king who is determined to take over Halloween. With help from his friends Sally, the mayor, and Dr. Finklestein, Jack and his trusted pal Zero embark on a quest to rid the town of bugs and stop Oogie Boogie from carrying out his evil plot. As Jack, you must battle Oogie's creepy henchmen using an arsenal of different weapons and navigate through booby traps, mazes, and puzzles. … Expand

Score distribution:
Positive: 3 out of 5

TOSE has done a topnotch job of proving it's possible to create a licensed game perfectly playable by children and adults alike without insulting the intelligence of either, one of the highest compliments that can be laid on games with such a shameful expectation attached.
A beefy and satisfying adventure on a system that probably doesn't have many big games left in the pipeline.
It's dramatic and overdone in typical Burton style. You can continue where you last saved or simply quit, but I'd recommend letting Jack die at least once just so that you can witness how cool it looks.
Strip away The Pumpkin King's look and feel and you're left with a "Castlevania"-influenced platformer with only a handful of weapons and run-of-the-mill boss battles. [Dec 2005, p.116]

JohnF.Oct 13, 2005Instead of going for a Mario-esque platform experience, the developers of 'Nightmare Before Christmas: Pumpkin King' have turned a promising idea into a dreary 'Castleroid' rip off with no compelling reason to keep going. The map is expansive, sure, but there's not a whole lot to see. Backgrounds are impressive but sprites and levels themselves look like something from the days of GameBoy Color. Sound effects sound like they were pulled directly from "Super Mario Land". You'll see loads of characters and set pieces from the film but in the end, if that's what you want to see, just watch the movie. You'll have a much better time. And this coming from a hard-core 'Nightmare Before Christmas' fan.… Expand

GREENSBORO, N.C. -- There were 16 NCAA tournament games Thursday.
Eleven were decided by double-digits.
I hope what's on tap is more interesting.
Otherwise, I'm turning my full attention to the NIT.
Here's a recap of Thursday's NCAA tournament action ...
Story of the day: Jim Calhoun missed Connecticut's 103-47 victory over Chattanooga and spent Thursday night in a Philadelphia-area hospital for precautionary reasons. It remains unclear whether the Hall of Famer will return to the sideline in time for Saturday's game against Texas A&M, although Calhoun is expected to be released from the hospital at some point Friday morning.
Game of the day: Eric Maynor had the ball in the final seconds against one of college basketball's storied programs, and stop me if you've heard this one before. Two years ago in a similar situation, Maynor hit a late jumper to help VCU beat Duke in the first round of the NCAA tournament. This time, it was UCLA on defense, and because UCLA played better defense, Maynor never got a clean look. Instead, he forced a shot at the buzzer that missed badly, allowing UCLA to escape with a 65-64 win .
Upset of the day: I'm not even sure it was an upset, because pretty much everybody I know predicted it to happen. Still, a No. 12 seed (Western Kentucky) beat a No. 5 seed (Illinois) by a 76-72 margin, and now first-year WKU coach Ken McDonald is just one win away from becoming the hottest young coach in America, which would translate into a nice pay raise, at the very least.
Predictable star: Marcus Thornton took 15 shots, made 10 and finished with 30 points in LSU's 75-71 win over Butler . The SEC Player of the Year took over, but only in spurts, getting most of his points in succession, either late in the first half or towards the middle of the second. Next up is a showdown with North Carolina in North Carolina. It'll match the SEC champions against the ACC champions, the SEC Player of the Year against the ACC Player of the Year (assuming Roy Williams allows Ty Lawson to play).
Unpredictable star: Roburt Sallie entered the NCAA tournament with 39 made 3-pointers, meaning he basically sank one every game. And then came this game against Cal State-Northridge, a game in which Sallie shot 15 3-pointers, made 10, and finished with 35 points to help Memphis advance with an 81-70 victory that wasn't safe until the final minutes.
-- Three random notes --
1. Oliver Purnell fell to 0-5 all-time in the NCAA tournament thanks to Clemson's 62-59 loss to Michigan . He's now lost once with Old Dominion, twice with Dayton and twice with Clemson. He lost despite having the higher-seeded team last season and this season.
2. Washington barely had to deal with Mississippi State's Jarvis Varnado in a 71-58 win over the SEC tournament champions . The nation's leading shot blocker played just six minutes in the first half because of foul trouble. He finished with five blocks in 23 minutes.
3. One of the stories coming out of Selection Sunday was that only four non-BCS schools received at-large bids. After one day of the NCAA tournament, two of those teams are already gone because Texas A&M eliminated BYU and LSU eliminated Butler. Dayton and Xavier (at-larges from the Atlantic 10) play Friday.
Closing statement: Tyler Hansbrough became the ACC's all-time leading scorer in North Carolina's 101-58 win over Radford. It was another monumental accomplishment for the four-time All-American, but that doesn't mean his teammates couldn't clown him, just a little.
"I'm just glad he broke the record on a free throw," said UNC's Bobby Frasor. "I think that's pretty fitting."

Sometimes it's difficult to tell if an artist is enjoying their profession rather than just being blessed with a gift that doesn't fulfill them. Luckily for us it's easy to decipher how much fun Legit is having on the mic with his recently release project and its standout track Yachtzee. The unsigned emcee slams this record out of the park with some light, carefree lyrics including "I'm in the sun soaking, relaxing, just laying/ or maybe underwater congregatin' with crustaceans/ snapping shots of the view from my suites location/ if my tweets piss you off I'm understanding your frustration". And when you can' think it can get any better, Third Productions throws down an incredibly enjoyable beat to keep the momentum flowing. If you like the way the dice are rolling on here, be sure to check out Legit's latest work, Coloring Outside the Lines, out now for your listening pleasure now.

Publisher: Ishi Press Author: Ghenrikh M. Kasparyan Year of Publication: 2007 (2nd)
Pages: 546 Notation Type: Algebraic (AN)
Ghenrikh M. Kasparyan (1910-1995) is considered to have been without doubt the greatest composer and analyst of chess endgame studies ever. He was so great that when a great new chess star named Kasparyan appeared on the scene, the Soviet authorities decided to change the name of the second Kasparyan to Kasparov to avoid confusion.
In this book, his master work, Kasparyan first classifies endgame studies into the analytic as opposed to artistic. Analytic studies are those likely to arise in an actual game. Artistic are composed positions where some spectacular or unusual event occurs.
Kasparyan then divides endgames into those where the win is achieved by promoting a pawn or checkmating the enemy king as opposed where white wins by trapping or dominating the enemy pieces. There are an amazing number or these dominating themes, including those by Kling, Horwitz, Berger, Troitzky, Rinck, the Platov brothers (Mikhail and Vladimir), Kubbel and so on.
This book is devoted to those endgame studies where the win is achieved by trapping or "Dominating" the opponent's pieces, especially those where a weaker piece is able to trap a piece that is normally stronger.

Waldorf Educator Speaks on TedX
This latest TedX video circulating around on education is a must see. The talk is by Jack Petrash, founder and director of the Nova Institute, which, according to his TedX bio, "seeks to build a bridge between Waldorf Education and contemporary educators to encourage dialogue and a sense of common purpose." Petrash is also the author of Understanding Waldorf Education: Teaching from the Inside Out.
According to Waldorf Today, Petrash believes education should "develop three essential capacities: a capacity for vibrant and vigorous activity, a capacity for a sensitive and yet resilient emotional life, and a capacity for clear, focused, original, thinking. . . . In order to develop these three capacities, we must educate our children in a multidimensional way in school.
Watch his innovative Ted Talk:
The Case for a Summer Slowdown
If you Google, "Summer break with children," you get two types of search results — a variety of activity lists or articles about the evils of summer's off. Turns out they call it "summer fade," which is a one month backslide in learning coupled with an increase in Body Mass Index (BMI) for kids.
Many parents counter these issues with a rigorous schedule of summer camps, sport practice and tutoring. While watching television all day with a box of pop tarts is obviously not good, there are some other options beyond a highly structured and scheduled summer.
When planning, or not planning your child's summer, consider the scientifically proven benefits of boredom, free play and time in nature. These research studies about children and learning support the idea of a summer slowdown.
In a recent BBC news article, Children should be allowed to get bored, Dr Teresa Belton said, "Cultural expectations that children should be constantly active could hamper the development of their imagination."
Now couple that reality with studies connecting time in nature with increased learning and emotional capabilities. The positive results of being outdoors for children are vast as seen in this PDF of a decade of Scientific Studies on this topic. Some highlights include:
- "When children engage in authentic play in nature-based outdoor spaces, they develop skills in a variety of domains simultaneously." – Miller, D.L., Tichota, K,.White, J. (2009).
- "Sullivan has revealed that the symptoms of children with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) are relieved after contact with nature. The greener the setting, the more the relief." – Taylor, A., Kuo, F. & Sullivan, W. (2001).
- "Children who regularly have positive personal experiences with the natural world show more advanced motor fitness, including coordination, balance and agility." – Fjortoft, Ingunn (2001).
In addition to the learning benefits to boredom and time in nature, there is also the issue of free play. This article from Parenting Science explores over a decade of studies about the benefits of unstructured play time. The author is careful to note that free play does not mean physcial education classes or sports. Free play is just that. Unstructured play time, which is proven to help math skills, language development, and creative problem solving.
- "Play and exploration trigger the secretion of BDNF, a substance essential for the growth of brain cells."
- "Psychologist Edward Fisher analyzed 46 published studies of the cognitive benefits of play (Fisher 1999). He found that "sociodramatic play"—what happens when kids pretend together—'results in improved performances in both cognitive-linguistic and social affective domains.'"
And finally, before you schedule a summer of busy stimulation, consider this article and advice from Simplicity Parenting writer Kim John Payne. He says:
"[When Google is hiring they say] 'we're less concerned about grades and transcripts and more interested in how you think.'"
If we rewind to a childhood that makes an adult like that, what do we see? Is it racing around from one prep course to another? From soccer to piano to Mandarin? A childhood on the clock and filling up the gaps with zoning on the iPad and obsessing about making more friends on Facebook?
I don't think so.
When we really look at what happens for a kid when they slow down, tune in to themselves, take space and get busy in serious play, we can see that what they are learning is how to be create a kind of inner structure that will serve them (and us) well in the world ahead. … Play provides a deep and wide-reaching domain for kids to experiment with the real work of the real world."
The Pentathlon – Class 5
The mind and the body are not separate; they function as one. Waldorf Educators believe that, for children, learning without movement can be difficult. Waldorf educators also deeply know and study the mind body connection in regards to learning. Nothing represents this Waldorf culmination of physical and intellectual togetherness quite like the Fifth grade Pentathlon.
Fifth grade students are transitioning in development. After having come to realize the isolated self in third grade, they have grown into this reality and are now ready to look at the world around them in an ordered sense (space and time) to better understand their place within that world.
When it comes to physical education, the students are ready to emerge gently from the world of cooperative-only games and into the world of individual competition – a necessary transition before the sixth grade introduction of team-based sports.
These mind and body elements of readiness combine with Main lesson teachings of history and culture. Class 5 studies ancient history stretching from 3000 BC to 300 BC beginning with ancient India, moving to Persian culture the Chaldeans, Hebrews, Assyrians, Babylonians, Egyptians and ending with Greeks.
So as the end of the Class five Main Lesson school year wraps up Greek History, the end of the Class 5 Physical Education school years ends with a five event Greek Pentathlon: discus, javelin, wrestling, long jump and running. In gym class throughout the year, students will have prepared for their individual events and then will compete in an all day Pentathlon festival with other regional Waldorf schools.
Here are all six of the Fifth Grade classes in the 2013, Ann Arbor Pentathlon, singing Glorious Apollo together for the first time.

Screen Free Week Starts Monday
As Waldorf parents, you know the value of screen-limited living. Now, help spread the word and encourage the people you know and love to take part in Screen Free Week this upcoming Monday, 4/29 through Sunday 5/5.
Screen Free Week is organized by The Campaign for a Commercial Free Childhood.
Here are some great resources for screen free week, including articles, books, links, reports and fact sheets about the influence of screen time on children.
And screen free week is not just for the kids. Stop checking that smart phone first thing in the morning and leave Facebook and Twitter alone in the evening and at lunchtime. You can do it. Turn Off media and turn On Life!
My Child Will Learn to Knit?
Knitting and handwork is a subject in Waldorf of equal importance to Music and Spanish and the other special subjects. Wonder why? Learn to knit! It requires counting, fine motor skills, spatial awareness and multilateral thinking. Best of all, unlike a math worksheet, this math lesson, a pattern of weaving and intertwining multiple rows, layers, and numbers according to formula, results in a beautiful and functional piece of art. Something each child is truly proud of having made.
Waldorf Educator / Guru Eugene Swartz discusses this topic in full here at Millenial Child.com.
Here is an excerpt from after the click:
"Needles are held in both hands, with each hand assigned it's respective activity; laterality is immediately established, as well as the eye's control over the hand. The right needle must enter a fairly tightly wound loop of yarn On the left needle, weave through it and pull it away, in the process of tying a knot. Only a steady and controlled hand can perform such a feat, so the power of concentration is aroused . . ."
Playing Music Increases Intelligence
Music is beautiful and enriching to our lives. Children who learn music gain confidence in their ability to master a complex skill. But research also shows music does so much more for our brains. Below, we have posted some music and intelligence research to go with this lovely video of our 7th and 8th grade orchestra performance.
From The M.U.S.I.C Foundation: "Music training is far superior to computer instruction in dramatically enhancing children's abstract reasoning skills, the skills necessary to learn math and science."
From Parenting Science:
"Moreover, brain scans of 9- to 11-year old children have revealed that those kids who play musical instruments have significantly more grey matter volume in both the sensorimotor cortex and the occipital lobes (Schlaug et al 2005)."
"People with music training often outperform their non-musical peers on cognitive tasks (Schellenberg 2006)."
"A new study of older adults–aged 65-80–found a correlation between childhood music training and cognitive performance. The more years a person had spent playing an instrument, the better he performed on tests of word recall, visual (nonverbal) memory, and cognitive flexibility (Hanna-Pladdy and Mackay 2011)."
From Science Daily: "Researchers have found the first evidence that young children who take music lessons show different brain development and improved memory over the course of a year compared to children who do not receive musical training."
From the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health: "Short-term music training enhances verbal intelligence and executive function. After only 20 days of training, only children in the music group exhibited enhanced performance on a measure of verbal intelligence, with 90% of the sample showing this improvement. These improvements in verbal intelligence were positively correlated with changes in functional brain plasticity during an executive-function task. Our findings demonstrate that transfer of a high-level cognitive skill is possible in early childhood."

Report: Hacked Pages Remain In Search Engines' Caches
Search Engine Journal reports that online security firm Aladdin Knowledge Systems identified a potential "flaw, which allows the search engines to deliver malicious pages that have already been removed from the web." What that means as a practical matter is that hacked pages, which have already been taken down or otherwise cleaned up, may still be visible to end users through Web search via caching, which generally speeds up delivery of search results.
The following statement was provided by Yahoo:
"Yahoo! is committed to protecting its users from malicious sites on the Web and we follow up aggressively on reports about potentially malicious pages. This is an ongoing battle for all search engines and Yahoo! has processes in place to quickly remove cached pages."

I thought it was a mismatch before and I still do. No point in seeing it now. I would have loved to see it a few years ago when both fighters were in their primes, but they arent even close anymore. That fight could have meant so much to the sport.

Floyd would get no credit for schooling Pac now , why not fight the new super Juan and Bradley and then people will truly see the difference in class between Floyd and the WW hype job Manny , because Floyd will own both Bradley and JMM again , the only challenge Floyd has is when handicapped against bigger fighters at their healthy weight , Floyd is a class about the WW division .

I would rather see the fight then not see it even though its stale and way past its sell by date. If Mayweather wins it's never going to mean as much as it could have meant during it's peak, but sign me up, i'll still tune in.

Its funny to see that After that epic KO no one wants to see the floyd vs pacman fight. i sure would pay to see the fight. i feel that arum wants a 5th fight with Marquez be cause he know that he and Manny just lost all of their bargaining points against Mayweather it will be hard for them to as for a 30/70 slit of the money due to his 2 resent losses. second the same kind of punch that KO pacman is the same kind that mayweather is able to hit all night long.
I feel that pacman will not recover from that kind of KO. ( he must be asking why did GOD allow this KO to happen)

I would like to see it!
For Floyd it would mean he finally put the nail in the coffin and resume wise he would gain a lot although Pac is not in prime he is still the younger among them.
For Pac it would be the only opportunity to completely redeem himself and get the status he had 3-4 years ago.

Dustin David Nippert (born May 6, 1981, in Wheeling, West Virginia) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Doosan Bears of the Korea Baseball Organization. He previously played for the Arizona Diamondbacks and Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball.
Early career[edit]
Nippert grew up in the small Ohio town of Beallsville, where he played baseball for Beallsville High School. He attended West Virginia University, where he played college baseball for the Mountaineers in 2002. [1]
Professional career[edit]
Major League Baseball[edit]
Nippert was drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 2002 Major League Baseball Draft in the 15th round and made his major league debut on September 8, 2005. On March 28, 2008, he was traded to the Texas Rangers for Jose Marte.
On June 29, 2008, Nippert threw a seven-inning no-hitter for Triple-A Oklahoma City RedHawks against the Omaha Royals.
Dustin Nippert was able to shake off a scary incident on July 19, 2010 when he was hit on the side of the head by a line drive hit by Austin Jackson against the Detroit Tigers. The ball was hit so hard that it ricocheted off of his head and past third base into left field. Nippert walked off the field smiling to a standing ovation in Detroit but was placed on the 15-day DL after the game.
Korea Baseball Organization[edit]
On March 3, 2011, Nippert signed with the Doosan Bears in the Korea Baseball Organization.[2] Due to his solid performances in a Doosan uniform, Doosan fans have christened him "the Jesus of Seoul"
