Canvas Release Notes
"Change is good" is the motto for this new learning management system. Enhancements or changes to the system can take place every 3 weeks, without the system being down. This allows Canvas to improve regularly and not wait for upgrades to add new features. Usually, these changes would be minor, but it's important to be aware of this. The changes may be back-end updates, unnoticeable by the user, or visible changes such as button or option modifications. Release notes are posted to the Canvas website three-four weeks in advance.

About Scarlet Page
Scarlet, the daughter of Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin, grew up surrounded by music and musicians. She began her career in photography, establishing herself as a successful and in-demand music photographer. She had been taking pictures of bands for more than 15 years before she managed to shoot Jimmy "officially" for a Sunday newspaper. The resulting shot gave her the idea of portraits of other guitar legends.
"I really wanted to do a charity project and Teenage Cancer Trust, with its incredible musical pedigree, and the amazing work it does, seemed ideal," she said. "I've been shooting now for over a year, and I'm not going to stop just yet."
The Resonators exhibition can be viewed when attending performances or from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. March 29, March 30, April 6 and April 19. These days are free/public open days. For more about Scarlet, visit scarletpage.com and shootgroup.com.

First Exposure: Kubota Borders and Textures
Movie theaters are full of comic book action heroes these days. But
Kubota Image Tools can make an action hero out of anyone—or at least a
Photoshop action hero. Most professional photographers are familiar
with the Kubota Artistic Tools, Production Tools and Dashboard tool for
organizing and accessing installed Kubota Actions or any other action
in their Photoshop library. These actions can save many hours of
computer time by automating common imaging tasks.

First a disclaimer: I have used Portrait Professional for years and I love it.

By Mike Winerip
New York Times, August 8, 2010
Meet the Massachusetts Teaching Policy Fellows 2014-2015 Cohort:
Daniel Adler – UP Academy Leonard, Lawrence Public Schools
"As I tell my students nearly every day, science is not just facts!

Brianne earned her BA from Bryn Mawr College, and her MEd from the University of Massachusetts through the Boston Teacher Residency.

Hayden Frederick-Clarke – Charlestown High School, Boston Public Schools
"The face of the American public-school student has changed dramatically over the past four decades.

The unsatisfactory outcomes of too many African-Americans, Latinos and the poor in our public schools is the evidence of this phenomenon."
Hayden Frederick-Clarke is a seventh-year math teacher at Charlestown High School in the Diploma Plus program, which targets over-age, under-credited students. Hayden is a founding member of the program and has authored its mission to make anti-racist, anti-misogynist and social justice teaching the program's hallmarks. His zealous belief in student empowerment and community building is reflected in his classroom structure which places students at the center, thrives on peer tutoring, and necessitates that students often work independent of him to prepare for the rigors of higher education. In addition to instructing students, Hayden leads professional development series on Competency-Based Grading and Educating Boys of the African Diaspora for staff at his school. He is also a member of the inaugural cohort of Boston Public Schools' Male Educators of Color (M.E.O.C.) action group.

He holds a BA from Bowdoin College and an EdM from the Harvard Graduate School of Education.

She received her BA from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, and her Master's in Teaching from the University of Washington in Seattle.
Lindsey Hugo – Brooke Roslindale Charter School
"As a nation, we are aware of the reasons for high teacher turn-over in urban schools, but it is imperative that we start finding better solutions to deal with this issue. I believe great teaching year after year can, and will, close the achievement gap; thus, it is critical that we find a better way to retain highly effective teachers in order to give all children access to the quality education they deserve."
Lindsey Hugo is an 8th grade English Language Arts and social studies teacher at Brooke Roslindale Charter School. Prior to teaching 8th grade, she taught 6th grade for two years at Brooke.

NEWTON, N.C. (AP) - A jury has found a Florida man guilty of killing a North Carolina state trooper.
Multiple media outlets reported Thursday that the jury found Edwardo Wong Jr. of Ormond Beach, Fla., guilty of first-degree murder after 30 days of testimony.
The jury began its deliberation Thursday morning. Wong was charged with shooting Highway Patrol Trooper David Shawn Blanton Jr. during a traffic stop on Interstate 40 in Canton.
Defense attorney Mark Melrose acknowledged that Wong shot Blanton three times. But Melrose said Wong lacked the premeditation and deliberation necessary for a first-degree murder conviction.
But Prosecutor Jim Moore said Wong made several decisions in the four-minute stop that ended with Blanton being shot three times as he begged his killer to stop.

Thanksgiving forces me to face my two kitchen nemeses: pie dough and gravy.
I can make pie dough fine anyone can when they use a food processor. But rolling it out without it sticking to my rolling pin, let alone trying to move it from the pastry cloth to the pie plate has reduced me to tears more times than I care to admit. Thats why I have always kept a stash of store-bought pie crusts in my freezer.
While I have made sausage gravy in the past, and even chocolate gravy on occasion, the thought of trying to make turkey gravy terrifies me. In 2005, I left my friends waiting almost an hour as I struggled to make gravy for a turkey dinner. The gravy kept veering from lumpy to brothy and back again. In the end, I reached for my backup: a jar of the store-bought stuff. That has been my go-to ever since.
Last week, I went into the kitchens of experienced home cooks to learn how to overcome these culinary hang-ups at long last.
What did I learn that Ive been missing? Patience.
When I got to see these cooks in action, it was clear that I was trying to make things happen too fast. I was rushing instead of paying attention to what was happening in the skillet or under my rolling pin. Pie dough and gravy are persnickety. They dont adapt to your schedule. You adapt to theirs or risk failure.
In response to a column about my culinary shortcomings, Glenda Gosztyla of Raleigh sent me an email as if she were my personal pie dough cheerleader. Her words of advice: Practice. Dont give up. Get by yourself in the kitchen. Be in a good mood. If you do not feel good, do not start the pastry.
And so I spent a morning last week watching this pie dough guru work her magic. She took her time, cutting the shortening into the flour, fluffing it with a fork as she added ice-cold water, a few drops at a time. She knew from years of experience what the dough should look like at each step and waited patiently for it to happen.
We sat and drank coffee for 35 minutes while the dough chilled in the fridge and then chatted for 20 more as the dough sat on a pastry cloth on the table, shedding its chill. Gosztyla knew better than to rush that dough.
She rolled it out one stroke at a time, watching to make sure it didnt stick, quick with a dusting of flour if it did. By the end of our almost two-hour lesson, she had created the ideal fluted pie crust ready for whatever filling she might decide to make for her husband that night.
Last week, I also accepted an invitation from Raleigh cooking instructor Sharon Morf to learn how to make gravy. I roasted a chicken the night before to produce drippings and fat for my lesson. Again, I found myself in the kitchen with a teacher who understood that you have to slow down to succeed.
Morf and I stood side-by-side each making gravy. I got to see how she stirred the flour into fat, creating a silky brown sauce, while mine quickly clumped. She eased my pan off the heat until my continued stirring made it look more like hers. With each addition the drippings, wine, cream, sherry Morf danced her skillet on and off the heat while constantly stirring, making sure her gravy didnt clump, didnt thicken too much. It was an exercise in being in the moment.
And then we tasted the gravy. I realized I had never had good gravy before. My mother had also always reached for the jarred kind. As a result, I never understood why people liked gravy or that most of the Thanksgiving meal (turkey, stuffing and mashed potatoes) was just an excuse to consume gravy.
Late last week, when I got in the kitchen to try to replicate my lessons, I was rewarded with gravy I want to eat with a spoon and pie crust I want to eat all by itself.

Those attending just the dinner will need to arrive at 6:45 p.m.
A fan pack, which includes four tickets to the dinner and four season passes is $200, while a fan pack that includes four dinner admissions is $65.
Lastly, Notre Dame faculty and staff can attend the dinner for $20 by showing their Notre Dame ID.
Fans are encouraged to purchase tickets early to ensure their spot at the special night.

The two organizations have partnered several times with the program over the years in addition to the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation, which pairs children battling pediatric brain tumors with college or high school sports teams.

I bought these for insulation from drafts and noise and to keep out the mirning sun and light from street lamps. These drapes are so soft and pliable I wish they were a blanket. I bought two panels to cover a double oversized window. Due to the size of these drapes you will need a sturdy rod (1.5
these curtains are very true to color, and luxurious. They did not come with tabs, we are having a tailor put some on. They also did not have hooks, as I believe they are advertised to have.
These panels are lovely - made well and really seem heavy enough to provide full black-out coverage. I ordered the silver-grey color in hopes that they would look like the image (a very blue-ish grey) but the turned out quite silver. I returned them for that reason alone, as they would'nt match my decor. However, they are so great that i plan to order the ivory!
I am keeping these, find them to be a good value. They are helping to keep out the draft on big wide front windows. Getting compliments as well. More like ultra suede than velvet but still lush but still informal enough for family room and will probably wear nicely. Keep in mind you have to get rings/clips or use drapery hooks and not easy to open and close depending on rod you use. I have clips now and am switching to hooks when I figure out how to do it properly.
These curtains are very high quality for the price. Look and feel better than the PB velvet drapes. Heavy weight, blocks all light.
These are exactly what I was looking for: thick, heavy, luxurious velvet curtains with a black out liner.
Very heavy, very nice curtains. I've used them throughout the house in different colors. I love how they look and feel.
I am very pleased with these curtains. They are just as beautiful as picured. No fading in over a year despite 6-8 hours of daily full sun exposure! Plus, they are truly blackout curtains!
I was genuinely delighted when these curtains arrived. Luxury soft feel, really thick and heavy, and they 100% block out light. The photo is a decent representation of what to expect, but they look even better!
I had been looking for curtains for our master bedroom for years! Our window is 118 inches long and 100 inches tall- When I saw the measurements of these I was so excited- After reading the reviews I was worried I wouldn't like the color, but decided for the price and dim. I wasn't going to beat it. Well turns out I LOVE THEM!!! They look custom! The back is lined with a white-cream lining and looks very upscale- They block out ALL the light, and the color is perfect- they are a dark grey. They don't look blue or silver at all to me.

NC Triangle - non-chain Mexican in Cary?
Are there any good Mexican restaurants in Cary? To my knowledge, all of the Mexican restaurants here are chains - Los Treys Mageuyes, El Dorado, Toreros, etc. I usually go to Raleigh (Las Margaritas), Durham, or Chapel Hill when I'm craving Mexican, but I'd love to find a go-to place closer to home. Any ideas?
Is there something specific that you're looking for? The restos you mention are primarily local chains, so it's not like the PF Chang-type of chain with mass produced food.
Make the trek over near WalMart off New Hope Church in N Raleigh. Off Ronalda across the parking lot from the entrance in a small strip mall. Inexpensive, authentic and delicious!
What I'm looking for is a place that is locally owned and worth supporting. I.e. ideally a restaurant run by a local family with their own recipes and interpretation of Mexican cooking. The problem I have with even the "local chains" is they all start to blend together and taste the same...presumably to cater to as many people as possible?
It seems like Cary and the surrounding area has several good, local places for Indian (Kandas, Saffron), Asian (An, Lemongrass), Italian (Bella Monica), Cuban (Carmen's), etc, but I've been hard pressed to find a Mexican restuarant equivalent.
I'll have to try the taqueria off Maynard - thanks for the tip on this one!
re: mgreig
As km4874 has said, try the one by the New Hope Walmart, it is called Fonda Birrieria Jalisco and the address is 1600-107 Ronald Dr. It is the real deal, authentic and tasty. For good Mexican you need to go to the places catering to the Mexicans, all the places catering to non Mexicans are the same regardless of the name.
re: jcfitz
Second the vote for Tacos Mexico!
re: shrixer78
Why wouldn't Los Tres Maguyes be consdiered a non-chain? It's a local establishment that has just recently added two locations. While it doesn't match La Fiesta west of Chapel Hill or any of the taquerias, I do believe Los Tres is superior to all of the El Rodeos, El Dorados, et al.
La Cocina is average...nothing different than El Rodeo.
re: jsb23nc
Eh, maybe I haven't tried the right one, but the new-ish Los Tres Magueyes on 54 and Cark Pkwy did not impress me at all. Huge portions, yes, but very bland and ordinary. This did not strike me as home-made food...I could be wrong, but it tasted like most of their ingrendents were re-hydrated, dumped from a can, or otherwise reconstituted. Their tortillas definitely weren't fresh either.
re: jsb23nc
That's why I asked the question about the local chains. I like La Cocina, but I didn't think it was any different than most of the other places the OP mentioned.
I did try the new El Rodeo last week (in the old Jibarra location) and thought it was pretty good. Everything seemed very fresh.
re: Suzy Q
Taqueria Rancho Grande is authentic and completely non-chain. Its at 1400 SE Maynard Road, near the Maynard-Chatham intersection. They have a great salsa bar with lots of fresh cilantro, pickled cabbage, verde, etc.
