I have a small bundle of photos, which include some of my great-uncle Henry Tyler, his father Charles Napolean Tyler (1871 – 1925), some that are probably his brothers and sisters, and many that I can't identify. The complete set is in my gallery; if anyone can identify any of the photos, I'd love to have any comments. Here are a few highlights:
This gallery contains 5 photos.
Henry Dreke was born in 1837 in Germany, and married his wife Caroline there. Their three children, Lena, Minnie, and William Charles were born in Germany, before the family moved to America. How and why they ended up in Winona, … Continue reading

Matthew and I got up early this morning, drove as far as we could up the Latrigg road, and walked up to the summit for some sunrise photos.
Imagine you live in an apartment complex. Every apartment has a front door and a back door. The back door opens onto a service area, where the garbage cans are. One day you realize that the back door doesn't really lock — you've got a key, and there's a lock on the door, but you can open it without putting the key in the lock. You check the back doors of your neighbors, opening them just enough to shout in and see if they're home, and if they are you explain to them that there's really no security at all on their back doors. You inform the apartment complex management.
The next morning, you're woken by the police, arrested for breaking and entering and trespassing. The apartment complex management are pressing criminal charges against you. You're facing up a maximum of ten years in federal prison and $500,000.00 in fines, not to mention massive legal fees.
Ludicrous? This is what happened to Andrew Auernheimer. Read more about it at cfaadefensefund.com.

Patch and I went up Castlehead this morning, after noticing a bit of mist over the lake.
Need to share files between your home PC and your laptop? There are plenty of ways to do it, but two of the easiest are Dropbox and Cubby (Google Drive is very similar). Both sync files between your PCs and their cloud storage (up to 5GB is free, more if you're willing to pay). Cubby is new, and still invitation only (you can sign up on their site to get an invitation someday, or ask me for one today); Cubby does have an additional feature that Dropbox doesn't have: while you can sync 5GB of data by going through their cloud storage, you can also sync unlimited data directly between your own PCs.
(Full disclosure: that Dropbox link is a referral link, if you click it we both get more free space; and if you ask me for a Cubby invitation that will get me more free space too.)
I can't find mention of them in our db, but Cassons from Cumbria, there is a good chance they are related

Hacker behind P2P botnet gets no jail time
A hacker who confessed he created one of the world's first botnets to use peer-to-peer technology won't spend any time in prison because of the assistance he's provided to prosecutors. Jason Michael Milmont, 20, of Cheyenne, Wyoming, was sentenced on Tuesday to five years of supervised probation and a year of home confinement. …
Way to go!
Way to go, gov! That'll most definitely be a deterrent to this individual and to others who may be thinking of doing the same thing. Remember, kiddies: Don't create a botnet, DDOS websites, use what were most likely stolen credit card (numbers) to purchase stuff and have that stuff shipped to vacant addresses. In short, don't do bad things. If you do, you'll be told to not do it again. You don't want that to happen, do you? If you do something really bad, we might even give you a stern look. And you know there's no recovering from that.
And since when does creating a botnet, even using P2P and AIM as the control channel, constitute "talent"? Sure, it's a level above script kiddie, but hardly difficult. All it takes is a bit of planning. Why is it that the people (specifically kids) who do illegal things with computers are rewarded while those with real talent who stay on the right side of the law are ignored? I know that ti's the squeaky wheel that gets the grease, but that still doesn't make it right.
how did he HELP the authoritys???
So what was it actually did to HELP then?????
Helping the authorities
I'm pretty sure that means naming names and selling out some bigger fish.
@Chris C
I was going to rant about how those of us who stay on the right side of the law get shit on by shitty managers etc. whilst those who break the law get rewarded, but you got there first.

The New Mexico Department of Transportation's District Five maintenance and construction crews are preparing safe walking areas along various New Mexico highways for the annual Good Friday Pilgrimage to the El Santuario de Chimayó.
To further enhance the safety for this event, the department has asked law enforcement agencies to assist in the enforcement of a state law that prohibits encroachments, including concession or roadside stands, along state highway right of way.
"This event has been a tradition for many generations and the New Mexico Department of Transportation is working together with local, state, federal and tribal entities to provide a safe walking area for this year's event," said District Five Engineer Miguel Gabaldon. "The department is requesting that walkers and motorists exercise extreme caution so that everyone is able to safely participate in the annual pilgrimage."
The NMDOT Cuyamungue and Alcalde maintenance crews have swept the typical routes to the Santuario, conducted shoulder erosion repairs and cleared debris and litter from the roadways to create safe walking areas.
Beginning today through Good Friday, crews will continue to work around the clock to provide the various accommodations as they have in previous pilgrimages:
Susan Reass, the woman who escaped from custody during a medical checkup Feb 16, received a year of unsupervised probation for her attempt, according to magistrate court documents. She must also pay $73 in court costs.
Conditions of her probation include staying away from establishments that sell or serve liquor. She must also not be in possession of firearms, explosive or any other type of explosive device.
Bill Snowden, Reass' attorney from the Santa Fe public defender's office, said the probation was achieved through a plea agreement.
"Essentially, it was part of a plea that the DA (Kent Wahlquist) and I worked on," Snowden said. "Part of the agreement was that she returns to where she was living out of state. If she didn't leave, she was looking at more trouble."
Another reason for the probation was that Reass had already spent time in jail for her previous, driver-related offenses.
On that night of Feb 16, Reass was arrested on a probation violation for a previous offense. Her blood alcohol level was too high for her to be admitted into the jail, so she was taken to the Los Alamos Medical Center for evaluation.
While at the hospital, Reass apparently asked the officers if she could use the bathroom. She used the bathroom on at least two occasions.
ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Authorities say a 12-year-old boy who fell off a cliff while hiking in the Jemez Mountains has been rescued.
Sandoval County Sheriff's officials say the boy was hiking with his father and friends about 20 miles north of San Ysidro on Tuesday morning.
KOB-TV reports that the young hikers got separated from the adult and the boy fell off a 30-foot cliff.
Paramedics located the boy and moved him slowly to safety due to the serious nature of his injuries.
A medical helicopter transported the boy to UNM Hospital.
Sheriff's officials say the boy is listed in stable condition.
His name hasn't been released.

Former Los Alamos County Police Commander Randy Foster is one of 48 applicants for the Santa Fe Police Department chief job, according to a report in the Albuquerque Journal.
According to the Albuquerque Journal, other candidates include Española chief Eric Garcia, former Los Lunas chief Roy Melnick, former state police chief Carlos Maldonado. Melnick and Garcia applied for the Los Alamos job after Wayne Torpy retired. The Los Alamos job was filled by present chief Dino Sgambellone, who came to town from Mansfield, Ohio.
Foster, meanwhile, lost his job following former Los Alamos Police Department Detective Brian Schamber's involuntary confinement at the New Mexico Behavioral Health Institute for 10 days in late December 2012.
Foster, former commander Scott Mills and detective Paige Early then filed suit against the county, alleging wrongful discharge, retaliation and gender discrimination.
A scheduling conference has been scheduled for district court in Santa Fe on April 23.
Foster, meanwhile, lives in White Rock and is now a deputy with the Santa Fe County Sheriff's Department.
According to the Albuquerque Journal, Santa Fe mayor Javier Gonzales has formed a citizen committee to screen the 48 applicants.
A Piñon Elementary School student's father, who other parents complained about to the Los Alamos County Sheriff's office for "suspicious" behavior while at a school function, recently met with Marco Lucero — with an attorney in tow.
Soon after the complaint, Lucero's office sent out press release detailing the allegations in an effort to get more witnesses to come forward.
"We were looking for additional information to help in our investigation," Lucero said.
Lucero asked the man if they could meet so he could question him about pictures he was allegedly taking of other parents' kids at the event. Parents were concerned because the man involved is a convicted sex offender
According to the sheriff, no charges were filed against the man.
"There wasn't anything in the interview," Lucero said. "When I asked for his motivation behind the photographs of the other kids, he said it was to keep a chronological album for his son about who he grew up with."
Lucero said he and the district attorney Kent Wahlquist examined the state statutes and according to those statutes, the accused did nothing wrong.
A Santa Fe man has pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $42,000 from a New Mexico tribe over an eight-month period.
Prosecutors say 60-year-old Ramiro R. Flores entered into a plea agreement Thursday.
They say Flores will be required to pay restitution to the San Ildefonso Pueblo in an amount to be determined by the court and also be sentenced to probation.
Flores was indicted last October on six counts of embezzlement from a tribal organization.
According to the indictment, Flores embezzled $42,856 from San Ildefonso Pueblo between June 2011 and February 2012.
At the time, Flores was employed as the program director for the Pueblo's Parks and Wildlife Program.
The case was investigated by the Santa Fe office of the FBI and is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jon K. Stanford.

They would have gotten away with it, if it were not for the dead flowers.
Police arrested two local suspects, John Michael Romero, 19, and Sam Newell, 18, on three counts of aggravated burglary of a vehicle, two counts of larceny (fourth degree felony), one count of misdemeanor larceny, one count of conspiracy and receiving/transferring of stolen property Wednesday.
According to court documents, the suspects are accused of burglarizing four vehicles in the White Rock area. The crime spree started in the late hours of Feb. 13 and continued into the morning of Feb. 14.
They probably would have gotten away with it if it were not for the fact that they trampled someone's flower bed in the process of their crime spree.
When the victim of the alleged umbrage checked the footage on a surveillance camera to see who the culprit(s) were, the identities of the alleged car thieves were revealed as they were caught in the act.
According to court documents, the two apparently took many things of value from the vehicles, including a handgun, an expensive pair of prescription sunglasses, earphones and loose change.
On Wednesday, the two suspects were taken into custody after they both confessed to the Valentine's Day spree.
Police arrested an Española man around 3 p.m. March 22 at a construction site located next to the Los Alamos Middle School. The suspect, Richard J. Martinez, 51 of Española, was caught allegedly pulling up wire with some cable attached to his pickup truck.
Martinez was charged with larceny. A witness at the scene also told police that Martinez allegedly made off with a "large amount" of galvanized pipe, even after the same witness told Martinez he'd be arrested if he was caught.
The witness showed a picture of the pipe theft in progress and police apparently made a positive identification of Martinez's pickup truck through a sticker he had on his back window.
Police also impounded his vehicle at the scene.

He does distinguish the two terms clearly in his books. I see. My reason for asking was to spend less time on something that was obviously wrong, and concentrate more on wondering exactly what he said and how he arrived at his point. I guess I was trying to give him the benefit of the doubt. Would I be close if I were to translate the above into English as "meat supreme or Andalusian hamburger"? I think that in this case, "supreme" is a noun frequently used in French, and to a lesser extent, in American culinary terminology (and apparently misused here), and not simply an adjective meaning "most superior". Since supremes tend to be without skin, bone, or any tough fibers or portions (with certain notable exceptions, such as chicken), I'm assuming he's referring to that aspect of finely chopped or ground meat, although I can think of no other examples of a supreme being ground, chopped, or even heavily pounded. However, if he does actually use the word "hamburger", or in this case a clear reference, it does place on him some responsibility for actually knowing what a hamburger is, and this is why I asked about albondigas (I'm sure there are other words for hand-formed packets, balls, or patties of ground meat), but to 99% of members of cultures that eat hamburgers, either as a steak dish off a plate or as a sandwich on a bun, a hamburger tends to contain the simplest of seasonings (often nothing but salt, and possibly black pepper), and is almost invariably beef. Various substitutions are sometimes used, but using something like ground turkey is more of a health consideration for those on special diets, and not an admission of non- beef meats as part of the hamburger tradition. It is the exception to a rule that still stands. It sounds as if Sr. Benavides-Barajas is playing fast and loose with his terms here. Which, if everyone understands and agrees that assumptions cannot be made as to what they mean to him, is fine. It just wouldn't be regarded by most people as good scholarship: poetic license is great for poetry, but poetry is not the best way to communicate when you absolutely need to be understood. > L. Benavides-Barajas is a Spanish specialist in historical gastronomy. > He has contributed to several European magazines, gastronomy guide > books > and cookery books such as the second edition of "Dinner Party Book" > and > "Let's Lunch in London" by Corrine Streich.

Florida man accused of fatally stabbing mother over money
Updated On: Mar 10 2014 09:03:38 AM EDT
A Winter Haven man told police he stabbed his mother to death because she had been "controlling his money for too long."
Officers found 36-year-old Micah Lee Hobbs sitting on the ground laughing several block from his house early Sunday morning. His grandmother called 911 minutes earlier after hearing the attack.
The Ledger of Lakeland reports 83-year-old Janie Hampton pushed Hobbs out of the house before finding her 57-year-old daughter Eva Hobbs in a pool of blood.
Police say an 11-inch kitchen knife was on the woman's body.
Police Chief Gary Hester said Hobbs has been "treated for some mental issues" in the past.
Hobbs was booked into the Polk County Jail on first-degree murder charges.

Guestbook comments from the manager
This was our honeymoon and retirement trip, really our first trip together since being married. We had been planning and dreaming of going away for a month or two (we stayed 6 weeks). We have both been to Oahu and Maui in the past and have traveled the world. This place so far is the best place we have ever stayed at. The home is immaculate, everything we wanted and more and of course the views are spectacular. One of my favorite memories is of these two sweet birds that came every morning with a song and I would feed them. We loved the local food at the Mediterranean Gourmet, especially that we could walk there (we went almost every day). We also loved the atmosphere at Barracudas ( we went there almost every other day) and on Sundays we look forward to Brunch at the St. Regis it was so wonderful. We are already scheduled to come back in June 2015, we will be counting the days~ we could live here~ we can say we highly recommend coming here to spoil yourself!

Just like "The Chelsea Handler Show", each episode of "Chelsea Lately" is an half-hour long. The show airs every weeknight on the "E!" network.… Expand

The show discusses sexual topics, bashes celebrities, and is just fun all-around.

A Cloud Of Rain
A dark cloud of rain
drifted into my life
And for some time,
I felt good, happy...
I no longer felt lonely.
I thought life would go on happily
In one long, long stretch of time...
But when the cold, harsh
winds of change started blowing,
The cloud of rain
had to drift away...
Life is still going on
In one long, long stretch of time...
I am not lonely.
I can't say I am sad or unhappy.
But you have left a void
That would take me
a long, long time to fill.

Not necessarily palpable, but it eats away from within......................

The London Evening Standard reports that 7 British traders (among them, BGC Partners' head of FX options in London and a Citibank EM options guy) found themselves locked in a lift this week, following an evening of "eating sushi and drinking" with clients. Despite "shouting for help" and "pressing the emergency button," the group was stuck for over three hours. In that time, they took a nap (captured by one of their cameras in the photo at left) and maybe did some other stuff not suitable for visuals? Read more »

For London Bankers, It's Once Again Socially Acceptable To Buy Expensive Stuff, Shove A Bunch Of Hundos In A Stripper's G-StringBy Bess Levin
I know I don't need to tell you that there have been terrible consequences to the financial crisis. People have lost their homes. They've lost their jobs. Some have lost their wills to live. Many of those whose jobs remained intact saw their bonuses take a painful hit. One of the lesser known stories is that of the financial services employees who lost neither their jobs nor their sizable compensation package. They too have suffered, possibly even more so than the victims the media chose to focus on. Because they had the money to spend but couldn't, for fear of coming off as insensitive, in these trying times. Oh, no, wouldn't want to upset anyone, the thinking was. Today, however, some heartening news comes from across the pond. You don't have to be afraid anymore.
A boom in hedonistic "greed is good" spending is sweeping through London after two years of recessionary restraint…West End stores, clubs and restaurants say they have been astounded by the sudden spike in guilt-free spending in recent weeks on a scale that would have been unthinkable even six months ago. Andrew Hawes, managing director of Bollinger UK, said it was currently impossible to get enough of its £120 a bottle Special Cuvée into Britain because demand is so strong. He said: "There was a time when people certainly didn't want to be seen with an expensive bottle of champagne — but we're past that phase now."
It gets better. Read more »
This coming Sunday, a bunch of financial services employees will participate in a charity decathlon to "determine Wall Street's best athlete." The competition features ten events which include pull-ups, a 400 meter dash, a vertical jump and bench pressing and is only open to those who work in the industry. The money raised will benefit Lance Armstrong's LiveStrong Foundation and go toward funding cancer research. Speaking of which: who wants to finding a cure for the disease and who could take it or leave it? The events organizers have helpfully broken things down on their site. Read more »
Animal Welfare Society Not Buying RBS Employee's Story About Why She Threw A Cat In The TrashBy Bess Levin
"I cannot explain why I did this, it is completely out of character and I certainly did not intend to cause any distress to Lola or her owners," Mary Bale, the woman who threw a Tabby cat in the trash last week, said. "It was a split second of misjudgment that has got completely out of control." Miss Bale said she was just walking home on Saturday when she saw the cat and decided to play with it. But she told the Sun that she "suddenly thought it would be funny" to put it in the bin. "I did it as a joke because I thought it would be funny. I never thought it would be trapped, I expected it to wriggle out," she said. A spokesman for the RSPCA said: "This is now an RSPCA case. Mary Bale has been interviewed by an RSPCA inspector and a full file is being compiled and will be sent for review by the prosecutions department." While Miss Bale admitted she should not have done it, she said she did not deserve to be 'hated' by everyone and assumed the cat would find its own way out of the bin. Her mother also insisted the unmarried bank clerk "loved cats"- and had even kept them as pets as a child. [DM via BI]

The new branch of the Union Market organic grocery store in Fulham – a company that is run by Odey's pal Tony Bromovsky, and which the fund manager has invested in – has added an "Odey Sausage" to its range, made from prime Middle White rare breed pork.

'bad for ears' : the role of poetry by RG Gregory
A poem may be sparked by a moment's event, but the spark comes because there is something deeper that needs illuminating, something within the reality of the moment that puts pressure on the popular paradigm of cause and effect and suddenly glimpses a more paradoxical sense of occasion yearning to break into being. In "bad for ears" there is great celebration within the room; outside though, a bleaker vision is straining to have its say. Poetry feeds upon this voice within the voice, this other spiritual viewpoint (for pleasure or pain) that changes the whole experience of the language being exploited.

"They would like someone to 'wow' them -- sweep them off their feet so to speak. But sadly, they have never thought about what would happen after they get married." Chen said. "They forget that a person is not a piece of real estate where you look at how nice it is, and how much it is worth. A person can change, can argue and can have upsets."

Navy Curator Says Every Day Promises New Discovery
WASHINGTON - When it comes to working in a controlled environment, it's not unusual to have special badges and keypad entries. For Julie Kowalsky, safe-cracking skills come in handy. Kowalsky, a curator with the Collections Management Division (CMD) at the Naval History and Heritage Command (NHHC), has hundreds of antique and historical weapons locked in a temperature-controlled room behind a vault door with a combination-spin lock. And sometimes the lock on that 1915 vault door manufactured at York, Penn., can be a bit temperamental.

U.S. Navy Historic Weapons Collection Dates to 17th Century
NHHC has a long history of preserving, analyzing, and disseminating the history and heritage of the U.S. Navy. The organization traces its roots back to 1800 when President John Adams instructed the first Secretary of the Navy, Benjamin Stoddert, to prepare a catalog of professional books for use in the Secretary's office. Over the next two centuries, the Navy's history was collected through various offices and departments. Finally, in the early 1970s, the organization, ultimately entitled the Naval History and Heritage Command, became a single entity responsible for all aspects of Navy historical preservation and dissemination.

Avoiding Dementia and Promoting Better Brain Health
Neuroplasticity refers to the brain's lifelong ability to rewire itself in response to the stimulation of learning and experience. Neuroplasticity allows the neurons in the brain to compensate for injury and disease and adjust its response to new situations and changes in its environment. This dispels the myth that the adult brain is a relatively stagnant and fragile organ. It's a muscle, just like any other muscle in the body. Like other muscles, you have to work it.

Navy's Underwater Archaeologists Dive Headfirst into Naval History
So what did it take to get this Texas boy out of Texas? Mixing his love for diving with archaeology. He's traveled the world, diving some of the world's oldest shipwrecks. His scientific expertise and experience in management led him on assignment from Texas A&M to the Naval Historical Center in 1994 to assist the Navy in the development of policies and a program in underwater archaeology. The work was so intriguing he left Texas A&M to work at the branch as a federal government employee in 1996.

Navy's History Collections, A Surprising Trip through Time
From Naval History and Heritage Command Communication and Outreach Division. The Navy is big on tradition, and with that tradition comes a collection of items that range from a $4.4 million dollar sterling silver trophy to a simple Thanksgiving menu from a destroyer during World War II. But concern about the loss of precious items in that collection while in storage has created an urgency that has been directed by Capt.

Chen has written 22 books on the subject of career success, personal success, plus marriage and family success.

Islam: a Din (a religion) and a Dawla (a state)
Nation Building in Islamic Societies is a provocative and long overdue analysis of the reasons why nation building in Islamic societies has failed and why, in the author's view, it will continue to do so for a considerable time yet. The raison d'etre of all Arab states that came into existence after the First World War was to promote the ambitions of the individual rulers and their families, be they kings, emirs or soldiers of fortune who usurped power through coups d'etat.

Enabling our kids out of their future
As I was handing out the exam many of my students asked when there would be a make-up exam. I have to admit I was surprised by their question. I asked if they studied for their test and they told me this was unnecessary because they knew they would be allowed to re-take the test. I found out later that in many of their classes they were allowed to re-test as many times as necessary to pass the test and thus give the illusion of being proficient.

A Commonsense Approach to Helping Your Child Succeed
If parents haven't done so already -- teach study and organization skills. If they have -- reinforce them. Many kids start off the school year with the best of intentions and then, by the time October or November come around, they fall back into poor work habits. Schools rarely, if ever, teach practical study and organization skills and keep kids accountable so parents should always be vigilant. The holiday break can be a great opportunity to teach these essential skills since, typically, families are together and parents can devote more time to working with their children.

Guardians of Rescue Saves Dogs Suffering from Freezing Temperatures
The perils of hot weather for your pets are well known, but cold weather is equally dangerous for animals. According to the American Veterinary Association, dogs should be kept inside during cold weather; like people, dogs are susceptible to frostbite and hypothermia and no pet should be left outside for long periods of time in below-freezing weather. Sadly, not every pet owner takes his or her dog inside during the freezing winter months. Guardians of Rescue, a nationwide animal rescue group, steps up to shelter these cold pets with insulated doghouses and will be traveling this winter from Camden, NJ to Maine providing assistance to those in animals in need.

Defining Success for Your Child
Think back to how you first defined success for your child when you began to read this article. Typically, in that model, we accept our children conditionally: only when they satisfy our idea of how they should act, or what's best for them, by following the path that we feel is best. We set things up so that, in order to gain our acceptance and approval, our child must stay on the success track that we have defined, constantly achieving our conditional benchmarks. We cannot meet our children's fundamental need for acceptance this way. The hamster wheel model reminds us of the futility of this approach.

6 Steps for Defending Yourself Against Social Spam
Social media sites are appealing to spammers for various reasons. First of all, it is harder to detect spam because only 15% of all social spam has a link that can be detected as spam, according to the report. Secondly, by using social media, spammers can potentially reach millions of people with a single ad or post. Spammers have also developed a variety of ways to spread spam on social networks making it is easier to trick users with appealing visuals beyond the typical spam email.

The President of the national bullying
prevention foundation
Anna Mendez says that bullying related suicide has become the 3rd leading cause of death among kids. Anna Mendez' tragic story has been highlighted in the media in recent years. She lost her own son to suicide as a result of long-term bullying. When she campaigns against bullying, she knows what she is talking about. Now she is about to open up her heart in a new way on the subject. She has written a book called "If These Halls Could Talk," the theme of which is the harsh reality of bullying in America; the type of bullying that led to her own son's tragic suicide.

You don't pay for tutoring
unless you find a good fit!
Julie F. has not yet had a background check. After sending a message to Julie, you will be able to order a background check for $7.99. The check will be processed by First Advantage. For more information, please review the background check information page.
As part of your tutor selection process, we encourage you to run updated background checks. Please also review the safety tips for hiring tutors.
My name is Julie, and I am a recent magna cum laude graduate of the University of Washington. I have a B.A. with Distinction in English/Creative Writing, as well as a minor in Classical Studies. I've been tutoring, both professionally and through nonprofits, for many years now. I've worked with K-12 students in the Seattle Public Schools, as well as Seattle-area independent schools. I've also worked with college students using holistic tutoring strategies.
These are my areas of expertise:
-Any English subject, particularly: writing development, literature, English as Second Language/English as a Foreign Language (I have an official TESOL/TEFL Certification), poetry, narrative structure, grammar, essays, research papers, personal narratives, rhetoric, composition.
-History. Particularly Classical History/Classics, but I am also well versed in American, European, and World Histories.
-Mandarin Chinese, Spanish, or Latin (all up to level 4).
-Test prep: SAT Verbal, SAT Writing, ACT English, ACT Reading, SSAT, ISEE, TOEFL, A.P. exams, Gifted Program exams.
-Applications for college, prep schools, scholarships, etc. I can coach a student through the entire process.
-Study skills, executive functioning skills, organizational skills, notetaking skills.
I have tutored students with ADD/ADHD, in combination with other Learning Differences, through a private tutoring company that is officially licensed to work with children with LDs. I've worked one-on-one with them to give them extra academic and test prep support, as well as provide their families with ongoing consultations. My strategies for these students revolve around practiced focus of energy, strategic timing, and turning lessons into fun events to maintain attention (i.e. games.).
Through working for various organizations such as the UW Women's Center's Making Connections Program and the Center for Experiential Learning and Diversity's Higher Education Tutoring and Mentorship Program, I have guided students through career development plans. I've worked on the concrete details of supporting a career, such as helping students craft resumes, CVs, and cover letters--but I've also talked many students through their future plans holistically, in a way that takes into account their education, interests, experience, skills, and understanding.
I am a native, fluent, and bilingual speaker of Mandarin Chinese. I attended Seattle Chinese School for ten years, from elementary school to high school, in order to learn how to read and write Chinese as well as speak it. I have tutored a couple of students in beginner-level Chinese, as well as taught it informally to various acquaintances.
I have a minor in Classical Studies, which required 25 credits of classics courses at the University of Washington. I am well-read and well-practiced in classical mythology, classical novels, epics, plays (comedic, tragic, and satyr), poetry (particularly lyric poetry), and history. I won the Meg Greenfield Essay Award for my poetic project on female agency in the classical novel. I also can tutor Latin.
I've counseled many high school students on their college plans, as well as guided them through college applications. With the UW Women's Center's Making Connections Program and the Pipeline Project, I focused on under-resourced but college-bound students. I'm extremely familiar with the higher education system, so coaching students through this process is always great.
I have tutored students with dyslexia through a private tutoring company that is officially licensed to work with children with LDs. Specifically, I've worked with dyslexic students on their writing development and reading comprehension issues. I use a strategic method of combining a multisensory structured language approach with self-awareness and self-confidence. With my dyslexic students, I am also more rigorous about organizational skills.
I've tutored elementary school students for many years through the UW Pipeline Project. I've been a classroom helper, homework help center tutor, and an official teacher's assistant at various schools including Bryant Elementary, Sacajawea Elementary, Ridgewood Elementary, and Leschi Elementary. I also tutor a few elementary students through a private tutoring company. I mainly work with them on curriculum enrichment, but also SSAT/ISEE test prep and foreign languages.
I have been an ESL/ESOL tutor for about five years now. Recently, I received an Official Certification in TEFL/TESOL through Language Link courses and exams. I've worked with organizations such as the University of Washington Women's Center, the Higher Education and Mentorship Program, the Seattle Tyee Chinese School, the International Rescue Committee, the Refugee Women's Alliance, and in various other non-official capacities. Furthermore, I am a Nominated Peace Corps Volunteer, and I am preparing to teach English in Africa starting next year.
I have tutored students taking the ISEE (along with the SSAT) to get into Seattle private/independent schools such as Lakeside, the Bush School, UPrep, and Holy Names. I target the prep based on the students' greatest strengths and weaknesses after giving them a diagnostic test. When it comes to test prep, I believe that there are two vital components: learning key strategies that will show up on the exam, and then practicing them over and over again.
I've often used linguistic theory to tutor my students in English, especially the very young ones and the ELLs. I believe that phonemic awareness is an important part of learning the English language. It highlights both repeating patterns and the strange diversity of the language. I combine both the Blended and the Analytical methods of phonics. Although phonics are only a small fraction of how someone can learn a language, I think that it is a good building block of knowledge.
I have tutored students taking the SSAT and the ISEE private school entrance exams for a few years. Specifically, I have helped numerous students get into Seattle private/independent schools such as Lakeside, the Bush School, SAAS, Seattle Prep, UPrep, and Holy Names/Forest Ridge. I target the prep based on the students' greatest strengths and weaknesses after giving them a diagnostic test. I have developed a great curriculum. When it comes to test prep, I believe that there are two vital components: learning key strategies that will show up on the exam, and then practicing them over and over again.
As an independent contractor for a private tutoring company, as well as a seasoned volunteer tutor, I have years of experience guiding students through study skills. No matter what subject I teach, I think that study skills (which include executive functioning skills and organizational skills) are vital. Content knowledge means very little without the foundational basis necessary for success.

Marie Francoise Marie-Nelly moved to Kinshasa in May 2008, just 14 months after the World Bank's Country Manager in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) had to be evacuated in an armored UN vehicle under a barrage of bullets. By becoming the first resident Country Director there, she gained the respect of her governmental counterparts and a chance to watch the Bank's portfolio more closely. To the street children who recognize her car, she became simply "Madame Banque Mondiale".
Marie-Nelly, who was born in Martinique and educated in France, is happy to put a human face on the institution even if it means living with guards around the clock and having a chauffeur who doubles as a bodyguard. Showing leadership is an important part of the battle to promote change in the way World Bank business is done in the DRC. The DRC is one of 17 countries receiving support for country-wide governance and anti-corruption work from the Governance Partnership Facility (see list of "Window 1" projects).
Marie-Nelly now has a good understanding of the history and culture of the country and takes a longer view on systemic corruption, entrenched under President Mobutu. "It's an old problem, therefore it will not be solved overnight. We need to establish principles first. The challenge is to avoid both complacency, and being perceived as minding other people's business. It's a constant balancing act".
She holds monthly meetings with the heads of Project Implementation Units so that they feel compelled to perform at a higher standard, and has invited INT to talk to them in the past to stress the importance of ethical values. She has witnessed nepotism even at ministerial levels, and suspects widespread cheating on expense accounts in certain circles.
Lack of capacity, transparency and organization defeats the best efforts
But more than corruption, it's the lack of governance that worries her in the DRC. "I see how ineffectively investment choices are made and how poorly decisions are carried out by the administration. It's connected to a lack of capacity, transparency and organization that defeats the best efforts." The size of the country – the third largest in Africa – compounds the difficulty of achieving results on a meaningful scale in a state weakened by invasions and civil wars.
The first batch of emergency multi-sectoral projects, which were approved after a peace deal in 2001, will close in a few years, giving the Bank an opportunity to refocus its efforts on a smaller number of sectors. "We're currently in 12 sectors. That's too many," says Marie-Nelly. "We're not here to deliver projects for projects' sake. We have to move toward a more strategic, sectoral approach and think about making our contributions more sustainable".
Drawing on political economy assessments for more effective projects
Understanding the political economy of selected sectors is crucial to improving the Bank's impact in a more limited number of sectors. Analysis of key players can help explain why certain projects have been stalled, and inform project preparation beyond basic procurement and financial arrangements. For example, mapping different stakeholder interests will help design and position more effectively a small mining project in the Katanga province.. An analysis of conflicting interests in the road sector will help tackle the question of road maintenance in a more durable and systematic way. Forestry is another area where political economy assessments are already helping shape operations.
"Traditionally this kind of work was not part of project preparation," says Tony Verheijen, the governance specialist who leads the DRC's countrywide governance and anti-corruption efforts financed by a $3 million GPF grant. "But Task Team Leaders are now convinced of the usefulness of taking a detailed look at who's who in their sector. In a country like the DRC it's very difficult to carry through a project without in-depth understanding of the competing interests and the local, provincial and central levels of power. I hope that once the GPF project is over, political analysis will be so instilled, it will become automatic. Luckily, we have a Country Director who is not afraid of pushing her team to accept this logic".

Columnist Bryony Gordon sparked an online debate after saying she's fat and happy, and revealing she is trolled every day by people commenting on her size. Here, writer LUCY VINE agrees… and says it's other people who have a problem with her size 14 figure – not her.
Lucy Vine says she doesn't have a problem with her size so why do you?
Let's start this by saying that the friend I'm going to tell you about – Danielle – is really lovely. She'd bought my bridesmaid's dress for a wedding we're both going to next month, and our conversation went like this.
[Her] 'I bought you a size 14. Is that OK? I'm so sorry.'
[Me] 'Of course it's OK – that's the size I am.'
[Her] 'It's only because of your boobs. I was just worried about them fitting in the dress… I'm sorry.'
I get it. She's trying to be nice. I understand, but really I want to tell her there is no need to be sorry. I don't need her to justify my size or apologise for it. And yet this happens to me constantly. 'It's just your boobs'; 'It's just your womanly hips'; 'It's just because you're curvy.' Yes, all true. But the underlying assumption being made here is that I am in some way unhappy with being a size 14. And I am not.
It's a leap everyone makes, because thin = beautiful, right? By (well-meaningly) justifying my size you are telling me that my body is not good enough. That my shape is not what you would like it to be. I'm wary of using the term fat-shaming, because I know all too well about the darker, nastier, more insidious fat-shaming used out there to police women's bodies every day. But offering excuses for my body – without my eliciting them – is a shaming of sorts, unintentional though it may be. And it's ingrained in all of us – I even did it myself just a few weeks ago to my friend Amy, when we went shopping and she asked me to pass her a size 16. 'You're not a size 16? Well, it's only because you're so tall.'
I'm treading a fine line here because I do not consider myself fat. The point is, I suppose, that a lot of other people do. I am overweight – another fun word! – I know that, but 'fat' assumes a sense of unhappiness, and I am very far from being unhappy with my size. I do yoga once or twice a week and I play netball and squash now and again. It's not enough to make me lose weight, but it is enough to make me feel good and be able to run up the occasional escalator without collapsing in a sweaty heap at the top. I know I
could be thinner with less eating and more exercise – I've always been aware it's that simple (although I'm also aware it's not 'that simple' for many women), but I choose not to because my weight, believe it or not, is something I think about very little. When other people point it out, however well-intentioned, I'll be honest: it sets me back.
I've never wanted my weight to define me. Growing up, I was always bigger than my sisters, but I was surprisingly unfazed by it, even when I was at school. I realise I'm lucky but I think it's definitely not the big deal people think it is. Over the years, I've watched people I love, of all shapes and sizes, become obsessed and hateful about their bodies, and I feel sad and lucky that I didn't think that way about myself – and still don't. It's never been an issue with boyfriends. Some men like slimmer girls, some men like girls like me, and that's fine.
US writer Lindy West often writes about the pain of being defined as an overweight person, saying, 'I spent half my life eating apology-salad as publicly as possible so that I might be able to pass as one of the "good ones" at least trying to lose weight.' And that's something I totally get. As happy I am about how I look, it's other people's perceptions of me as fat that make me nervous.
If I ever eat a chocolate bar in public, I can almost see the people around me are nodding to themselves and thinking, 'That's obviously all she eats.'
I remember reading an interview with Kelly Brook two years ago where she said, 'I reckon I've got the opposite of body dysmorphia. I think I'm a size 0 until I see pictures of myself and realise I'm not.' And I remember thinking, 'Is that me? Is that why people are uncomfortable with my shape – because I'm not seeing it right? Maybe I'm enormous and I just can't see it when I look in the mirror.' So in those moments when a friend says 'Oh, well you don't look like a 14,' that's when I start to worry. If it's such a dreadful size and has such stigma, if my closest friends and family feel like they have to lie or reassure me, when I wasn't asking for reassurance, maybe it is bad. Maybe my size does define me, maybe I should lose weight. After all, my BMI is 27.6 and the 'healthy' range stops at 25.
Curvy girls get put into categories of being either desperately unhappy with their size or aggressively proud, but of course we're all of us somewhere in the middle. I'm a rounded human being (no jokes, please) who has bad days and I'm definitely not immune to what society says I should look like. I'm also aware that being thinner would be easier in a lot of respects. Clothes would probably be more fun and I wouldn't feel personally attacked by those 'Use this one weird trick to lose 700lbs a day' spam adverts plastered everywhere I go on the internet.
And what's sad is that the only way I know people will stop whispering my size, or excusing it for me, is for me to lose weight. Lily Allen – for all her defiance saying, 'I may have gained a few pounds. I'm one of many that find comfort in food,' and 'My children felt more important than being thin,' last month when she was accused by rentagob Katie Hopkins of 'gaining two stone' – only really 'won' the argument when she posted a picture of herself having lost the weight. That's when Katie shut up: when Lily was slim again and it was therefore no longer something to be laughed at. In fact, that was the only tweet Lily left up. Down came all her I-don't-care-about-putting-on-weight tweets and up stayed the slim picture of her.
So yes, I know I could stop people commenting on my shape by losing weight. But that feels unlikely to happen. I like chocolate and pasta too much. And really, why should I? I know people are doing this size-apologising with love, to make me feel better about my failure to look the way I should do by their standards. But maybe it's those standards that need to change. I'm a size 14. It's not my boobs, it's not my hips, it's all of it – it's my shape. Stop explaining it away for me. Because it's only when you do that that I start to feel unhappy about how I look.
