Freida Bailey Greene
Freida Bailey Greene, age 95, died on Oct., 13, in Redford, Michigan.
Her memorial service will be held at Westminster Church of Detroit, 17567 Hubbell Street at West Outer Drive, Detroit, Michigan 48235, on Oct. 26 at 11:00 a.m., preceded by a family hour at 10 a.m. Reverends Mary Austin and Jim Rizer will officiate.
She was born in Oklahoma City, Okla., on Feb. 22, 1918 (though her official birth certificate said Feb. 25). She was the daughter of the late Joseph Thomas Bailey and Clara Netta Caldwell Bailey. She was the third of their four children and was predeceased by her sisters Theresa Bailey Breaux (Martin) and Elizabeth Bailey Snelling, and her younger brother, Joseph Thomas Bailey, Jr. (Marjorie Shannon).
When Freida was eleven years old, her family moved from Oklahoma City to Detroit. She attended Detroit Public Schools from seventh through twelfth grades and graduated from Northwestern High School in 1934. She began college at Michigan State Normal College (now Eastern Michigan University) and continued at Wayne University (now Wayne State University), graduating in 1939 with a Bachelor's of Science in education. In 1960, she received a Master's of Education, also from WU. Freida was a proud member of Delta Sigma Theta sorority and served as treasurer of her alumni chapter. She was also a member of the international honor society for women educators, Delta Kappa Gamma, and a was life member of the NAACP.
Freida eloped and married Walter R. Greene, Jr., on Nov. 2, 1940, but that event was kept a secret from their families until after his death in 1992. They had a traditional wedding in her family home on Aug. 10, 1941, and every year for 50 years they celebrated the August date with their family and friends.
Freida worked for the Detroit Public Schools from 1939 as a grade school teacher, reading specialist, assistant principal and principal, retiring in 1977 as the head of Sherrill School. However, in 1952 and 1953 she taught for the U.S. Army in Frankfurt and Hoechst, Germany, while her husband was stationed there with the U.S. Army. Freida was also the assistant director of the Detroit Regional Center for Grand Valley State Colleges from 1980 through 1982.
Freida had a beautiful voice and relished singing in her church choirs at St Andrew's United Presbyterian Church, Outer Drive United Presbyterian Church and Westminster Church of Detroit. She also served her churches as a faithful committee member and club officer, board of trustees member and officer, and she was ordained an elder and member of session at Westminster. In the 1960s, she was on the steering committee for Black Presbyterians United and a member of the Presbyterian Interracial Council. During the 1970s, she served the Detroit Presbytery as chair of the Urban Ministries Cabinet and also served on the Urban Strategies Task force for the Synod of the Covenant of the United Presbyterian Church. She was an observer at the World Council of Churches in Upsala, Sweden in 1969, and a board member of the Presbyterian Villages of Michigan from 1968 through 1976.
Freida's community service activities included being on the board of trustees at Mercy College of Detroit, the University of Detroit Mercy, the Detroit Music School, and Brighton Hospital. She was also very active with the Women's Association for the Detroit Symphony Orchestra serving on its board of directors and as treasurer. She served on the Corporate Leadership Board for the Boys' and Girls' Club of Metropolitan Detroit and chaired the unit management council for Bloomer Building. She was also active with the Founders Society of the Detroit Institute of Arts, the Women's Committee of the March of Dimes, and the Cystic Fibrosis Research Fund co-chair.
Freida is survived by two sons, Walter R. Greene III (Colleen Dolan-Greene) of Detroit, and Gregory C. Greene (Debi) of Canton; three grandsons, Walter R. Greene IV (Karen) and his mother Deborah Meyers Greene, Dustin C. Greene and his mother Cheryl Maliniemi Greene, and Nicholas J. D. Greene; a great-grandson, Montgomery Walter Greene and a step-great-granddaughter Brittany Moore; and a step-great-great-granddaughter Ava Moore. She is also survived by her niece Iris Bailey and nephew Michael Bailey of Cleveland; first cousins Charles Hughes and Rudolph Caldwell, and many other family and friends.
In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to one of the organizations that was important to her: Camp Westminster, the Karmanos Cancer Institute, Village of Redford — Presbyterian Village of Michigan or the University of Detroit Mercy.
Her arrangements were handled by the Cremation Society of Michigan. Please take a moment to share your memory of Freida with her family by signing her guestbook at: www.cremationmichigan.com/obituary.

I can't think of a bad time or place for listening to any of Ian Fleming's James Bond novels… Any of them will have you driving in circles rather than arrive at your destination.
- The Times
In 2012 Ian Fleming's Bond novels were released as brand new audiobooks. Read by a spectacular cast of British acting talent including Bill Nighy, Damian Lewis, Hugh Bonneville, David Tennant and Sir Kenneth Branagh. Over three years in the making, the project was the brainchild of Lucy Fleming, Ian Fleming's niece, and was headed by distinguished director Enyd Williams. They worked closely with the readers to create an exciting, modern take on the new, unabridged recordings of these classic books. To hear Lucy Fleming talking about the audiobooks on Steve Wright's Radio 2 show, click here. In 2013 Ian Fleming's two collections of short stories, For Your Eyes Only and Octopussy and The Living Daylights were released, read by the very talented Samuel West and Tom Hiddleston.

La Habra agrees to pay monetary damages to the parents of a 25-year-old man shot by two officers, attorney says.
LA HABRA – A settlement has been reached in a lawsuit against the city of La Habra by the parents of a 25-year-old man who was shot and killed by two police officers.
La Habra police officers Pete DiPasqua and John Jaime shot Michael Cho, 25, 11 times on Dec. 31, 2007, outside a liquor store near Whittier Boulevard and Walnut Avenue after witnesses said Cho approached the officers with a tire iron.
The $250,000 settlement will be paid to Honglan and Sungman Cho, according Jennifer Cervantez, assistant city manager.
A mistrial was declared in February in the first civil trial when an eight-member jury couldn't reach a unanimous verdict. The vote was 5-3 in favor of the officers.
The second civil trial had been scheduled for Sept. 21
"Everybody felt this was a case they did not want to go to trial again," La Habra's attorney Bruce Praet said. "We feel that we prevailed in the first trial and my officers got satisfaction from that verdict ... they felt vindicated by the jury."
The Chos' attorney said they decided against another trial because of the emotional ordeal it would present.
"Listening to testimony about the unjustified and reckless shooting of their son certainly took a major toll on Michael's parents," said attorney Shelley Kaufman through an e-mail.
"No amount of money can replace their son," Kaufman wrote. "The settlement at least provides money to set up a memorial to the honor the memory of this artistic young man, as well as a sense of closure that they fought for their son's rights."
Cho was an artist and UCLA graduate.
On the day of the shooting, police went to a strip mall after receiving two calls about a man vandalizing cars. When police arrived, the caller pointed out Cho, of La Habra, as the man responsible.
Witnesses in the first trial testified to seeing Cho approach the officers with a tire iron and ignore several commands to drop the object before the officers fired.
Plaintiffs' attorneys argued that Cho was 12 to 14 feet away from the officers, giving them ample time to use pepper spray, a Taser or a police dog, which was in Jaime's patrol car, to help apprehend Cho.
Praet contended that Cho was closer to the officers and that legally they could use lethal force if they felt their lives were in danger.
Toxicology reports revealed that Cho had marijuana in his system.
Soon after it took place, the shooting generated criticism and demonstrations from the Korean American community.
In June 2008, the District Attorney's Office cleared DiPasqua and Jaime, saying their actions were legal.
The District Attorney's Office investigates only whether officers commit a crime, not whether their actions followed protocol or whether excessive force was used.
DiPasqua retired before the first trial and Jaime is still on the force, Praet said.

Just a note about the recipe. It should be 1/2 tsp. arrow root powder! Clarice
Snowball Cookies
I have several family members and friends who cannot eat gluten and I like to have a few recipes tucked away for them. Honestly, even though my family is not gluten sensitive I make these cookies for us because they are so insanely good. Enjoy!
Snowball Cookies, Grain Free and Vegan
Makes a baker's dozen
1 ¼ cup almond or cashew flour
¼ cup coconut flour
½ tsp. arrow root powder
½ tsp. salt
⅟₈ tsp. vanilla paste, or ½ tsp vanilla extract
½ cup sugar
½ cup melted virgin coconut oil
1-2 TBL. mild tasting olive oil
Powdered sugar
Pre-heat oven 325◦F
Melt coconut oil and set aside. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper or silicone pad.
In a mixer bowl add all ingredients except the oils and powdered sugar. Mix together, then with the paddle on slow setting, slowly add coconut oil. Next slowly add olive oil. You should be able to gently squeeze dough into a ball. If not, slow add a bit more oil until you can. You really cannot roll this dough but gently squeeze it into a ball. It does not have to be a perfect ball!
Bake 20 minutes. Let cookies cool on baking sheet 5 minutes and then shift some powdered sugar over them. Do not move cookies but then them completely cool on cookie sheet.
If you want to use a healthier sugar than white powdered sugar, than you can use evaporated cain. Just run the sugar in a processor until it is powdered. But do not the cookies will not be white colored.
Gluten free baked items tend to be crumbly, so leave them on the cookie sheet (this is why you want the parchment paper) until they have fully cooled.
When you serve them if they are not powdery enough, you can sift some more sugar over the cookies.
You can make them smaller for more of a bite size but I would not make them bigger.
These cookies store well for a few days, if you put them in a container with a tight lid.

Sets up a committee to study feasibility
Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (Irda) is planning a to shift the insurance companies to a risk -based solvency model from a factor based solvency model, as practiced now. The insurance regulator has set up a committee headed by an actuary for this purpose and it will present a report on the same to the Irda chairman by January.
Speaking on the sidelines of a BOAO Forum for Asia-FICCI Summit, Radhakrishnan Nair, Member (Finance & Investment), Irda said, "As we have Basel III norms for the banking sector, there are Solvency II norms internationally for insurance companies. Since, we now have factor-based solvency being followed in India, Irda wants to move gradually towards a risk-based solvency." Nair added that though this would not be an exact replica of the Solvency II norms, but will follow the broader parameters of the norms in US, UK, Canada and other such countries.
|Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority (Irda) not keen to increase equity investment cap for private insurance companies. The present cap stands at 10% for private insurers. Radhakrishnan Nair, Member (Finance & Investment), Irda said that revision in limit can only be facilitated if there is a change in the Insurance Act
|"Insurance Act is the mother act of Irda. Only if there is a modification in the act, can the investment cap of 10 per cent be hiked," he said, on the sidelines of a FICCI-BOAO Forum for Asia Summit
|Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) has been allowed to invest upto 30 per cent, as per a notification by the Finance Ministry
Solvency II refers to a common set of rules to be applicable to European Union's (EU) insurance industry. These norms are made up of provisions related to capital requirements for the companies, regulatory assessment of a specific firm's risk, as well as the regulator's broader supervision of the entire marketplace. Solvency II has not yet come into force in EU.
The committee is composed of experts from the insurance sector and would prepare a report on both life and non-life insurance industry. However, Nair said that there would be an effort to ensure that there would be no dilution in the regulatory capital requirement. The present solvency margin stands at 150 per cent for insurers.
Nair further said that the model would involve some risk management by the company and help maintain a standardised model and appropriate risk-based pricing. Post the presentation of the report, the committee will have a procedure to run it (new model) through the present model of major insurance companies.

An Illustrated Dictionary of Cyborg Anthropology by Amber Case
Amber Case, Cyborg Anthropologist (who we've interviewed here) has produced this excellent dictionary of terms for her field.
For those who came in late…
Cyborg Anthropology is a way of understanding how we live as technosocially connected citizens in the modern era. Our cell phones, cars and laptops have turned us into cyborgs. What does it mean to extend the body into hyperspace? What are the implications to privacy, information and the formation of identity? Now that we have a second self, how do we protect it?
This text covers various subjects such as time and space compression, hyperlinked memories, panic architecture, mobile technology, interface evaporation and how technology is changing the way we live.
But wait, there's also cute illustrations by Maggie Nichols, like this one for Hyperlinked Memories:
I just bought mine, perhaps this is why you should cash that cheque from the Chemical Bank your nan put in your holiday card?

Public Health News Roundup: October 17
Electronic Laboratory Reporting Increasing
Federal agencies are reopening today after a 16 day shutdown and public health updates such as FluView from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention are expected to come back online within the new few days. CDC's last news release before the shutdown was on the increasing capability of laboratories to report findings to local and state health agencies electronically. The report was published in the most recent issue of Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR).
According to CDC, the number of state and local health departments receiving electronic reports from laboratories has more than doubled since 2005, however, progress is still needed. The MMWR report shows that only about a quarter of the nation's labs are reporting electronically and that electronic reporting lags for some diseases behind others. For example, 76 percent of reportable lab results for general communicable diseases were sent electronically, compared to 53 percent of HIV results and 63 percent of results for sexually transmitted diseases. Read more on infectious disease.
District Laws and Policies Reduce Sugary Foods and Drinks at School Parties
Schools with a district policy or state law discouraging sugary foods and beverages were 2.5 times more likely to restrict those foods at school parties than were schools with no such policy or law, according to a new study published online in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior.
Researchers at the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health examined the linkages between state laws, district, and school-level policies for classroom birthday and holiday parties through surveys of more than 1,999 schools in 47 states.
About half the schools had either no restrictions or left the decision to teachers; one-third had school-wide policies discouraging sugary items; and fewer than 10 percent actually banned sweets during holiday parties or did not allow parties.
The study was supported by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Read more on nutrition.
Children of Same Sex Marriages Less Likely to be Covered by Health Insurance
Children with same sex parents are less likely to have private health insurance than children with married opposite-sex parents, according to a recent study in Pediatrics. Using data from the 2008-2010 American Community Survey on children aged 0-17 years, the researchers found that 78 percent of children with married opposite-sex parents had private health insurance coverage, compared to 63 percent of children with same-sex fathers and 68 percent of those with same-sex mothers.
However, in states with legal same-sex marriage or civil unions, or in states that allowed second-parent adoptions, the disparities in private health insurance was lower for children of same-sex parents, suggesting that children of gay and lesbian households benefited from these policies. The American Academy of Pediatrics endorsed same-sex marriage in March. Read more on access to health care.

You Give Love a Bad Name
Description: By Stephen McKnight
Performed by Miyuki Kunitake
You promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passion's a prison, you can't break free
Ohhh... You're a loaded gun, yeah
Ohhh... there's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done
Shot through the heart, and you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name (bad name)
You give love....

Counselors help students cope with friends' deaths
BY KAREN CAFFARINI Post-Tribune correspondent October 18, 2013 2:54PM
A stuffed bear and a note were left on the front porch of the Merrillville house where two adults and two children were found dead Wednesday of apparent carbon monoxide poisoning. | Karen Caffarini/For the Post-Tribune

Additional counselors and social workers were available Thursday to help students and staff at Merrillville Community Schools as they grieve the loss of two long-time students, Matthew and Morgan Nichols.
The brother and sister were found dead in their Merrillville home Wednesday of apparent carbon monoxide poisoning. Their parents, Kennetha Purnell and Michael Nichols, were also found dead.
They had just moved into the house Saturday.
Mark Sperling, superintendent of Merrillville Community Schools, said the counselors and social workers were available throughout the school buildings on Thursday, after news of the students' death spread, and some staff members and students definitely need the emotional support.
He said Matthew, 13, was a student at Pierce Middle School and Morgan, 11, was a student at Merrillville Intermediate School. He said both students had been attending schools in the district for quite awhile.
"They were very well-liked children and very good students. They were nice young people," Sperling said. "Their friends and staff were very broken up by the tragedy," Sperling said.

My neighbors say that my dog starts barking as soon as I leave and doesn't stop until I get home. Why does he do that?
Frequently, dogs who bark while their owners aren't home have learned that barking gets them what they want. Note your reaction when you're home and your dog barks at you. Do you produce a treat, toss him a toy, or run to the door so he can go outside? Housebreaking issues are exempt from that last example. Teaching your dog that barking doesn't cause you to spring into action will help extinguish the behavior.
For the times when you do leave, make sure that your dog is suitably exercised and has cool toys to play with while you're away, and make the good-bye brief and unemotional. Avoid cue words that trip off the behavior you don't want. If your last words are always "I'm going to miss you!" simply stop saying it. Fifteen minutes before leaving, turn on the radio or TV for white noise, give your dog a pacifier, like a stuffed hard rubber toy, and skip the long good-byes. Eventually, he'll look forward to his reward. If the barking continues, and your dog isn't elderly or ill, then consider a citronella collar, a tried-and-true painless remedy. A microphone on the battery-operated collar picks up the bark and discharges a citronella spritz, a harmless, plant-based fragrance that's unpleasant to dogs. Almost 90 percent of owners who used the collars in a Cornell University study reported a decrease in barking. Your dog will have to figure out what's triggering the collar to spray, but he'll soon have the epiphany that his barking is the culprit, restoring peace to the neighborhood.
CITRONELLA COLLAR TIPS* The collar microphone can be activated by other dogs in close proximity, so homes with multiple barking dogs should try another solution. * Sound-sensitive/fearful dogs may be frightened by the spray sound. * Occasionally a "genius" dog learns to turn his head to the side and bark madly until the collar empties and then barks, penalty free, until it's refilled! * I like the Premier Gentle Spray Collar (about $80; available at carealotpets.com and pet stores).

Kate Spade New York Continues Robust International Expansion
NEW YORK, June 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of a steady international push, Kate Spade New York (ksny) announces today that it intends to buy its Japanese joint venture partner, Sanei International, out of their 51 percent share in the jointly owned company, Kate Spade Japan. This is part of a robust international expansion , which includes recent store openings in the UK, Dubai, and Kuwait as well as further expansion into Brazil with additional store openings in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo planned for this summer.
Craig Leavitt, CEO of Kate Spade New York says "Kate Spade New York has a long and successful history in the Asian market. We believe the brand has a unique ability to continue to grow internationally and be relevant to consumers around the world. In order to realize our international potential, we believe partially or wholly owned business models better enable us to connect more directly to our consumers, understanding and investing in their preferences and tastes more keenly. It is our strategy to build a global company to support what is already quickly becoming a global brand."
The move to acquire the Japanese business aligns with Kate Spade New York's strategy to fully or partially own the majority of its Asia based businesses. In May 2011, Kate Spade New York announced a joint venture in the People's Republic of China with the E.land group to create a significant brand presence with plans to grow to nearly 300 points of distribution by 2020. At that time, Kate Spade New York also announced its plans to buy back the Hong Kong South East Asia business from its long term distribution partner in January 2014.
The purchase of the Japanese business is expected to be completed in fall 2012. The Japanese business represents the company's second largest market outside of the US. The brand has been in Japan for the past 15 years and has experienced robust growth and increased brand awareness since operations in the joint venture in 2009. The brand currently operates 52 points of sale and expects to expand point of sale growth over the next several years. For the fiscal year ended August 31, 2011, Kate Spade Japan's net sales were approximately $71 million with operating margin in the high single digits and EBITDA margin (operating margin excluding depreciation and amortization) in the low double digits. Kate Spade Japan's direct to consumer business is greater than 90% of the total portfolio with strong year over year comp sales. Over the last twelve months ending April 2012, net sales have grown approximately 20%. The expected purchase price range for the buyout including debt repayment and related transaction fees is estimated to be between $45 to $50 million.ABOUT KATE SPADE NEW YORK In 1993, Kate Spade designed the utilitarian bag she'd been craving for years but couldn't find anywhere and so began a revolution in the accessories market. Simple silhouettes with clever details and crisp palettes soon established a visual shorthand for the brand that's recognizable the world over. In 2006, Kate Spade turned the reins over to design powerhouse Liz Claiborne Inc.- now Fifth & Pacific Companies Inc. (NYSE:FNP) and Deborah Lloyd, formerly of Banana Republic and Burberry, took the helm as creative director with an aim to broadening the line while honoring Kate's rich history. Today you'll find the brand on the arms of women everywhere – with 41 specialty shops in the United States, a thriving e-commerce business, 94 shops internationally, new flagships in Brazil and London and distribution in more than 400 doors worldwide.

1 pound fresh spinach fettuccine
4 links Italian sausage, sliced into bite size pieces2 Tbs olive oil
1 cup thinly sliced sweet onion1 large clove garlic, minced
one 16-ounce jar roasted red pepper, well drained, deseeded and sliced
1/2 cup chicken broth1 cup heavy cream1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese (plus more for garnish)
Get a large pot of water going for the fettuccine.
Add a splash of olive oil to another large heavy bottomed pot and saute 4 sliced links of Italian sausage to brown up.
Once the sausage is cooked through, take it out of the pot and put it on a clean plate.
Pour off about half of the rendered fat and add about 1 cup of thinly sliced sweet onion and cook that to soften.
At that point, add 1 large minced clove of garlic and add one well drained, deseeded and sliced 16-ounce jar of roasted red peppers and add 1/2 cup chicken broth and 1 cup of heavy cream and bring it up to a simmer.
Let that simmer along for 4 - 5 minutes and then use a hand blender to puree everything until it's nice and smooth.
Add about 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese and add the sausage back and turn the heat to low.
At this point, carefully add the fettuccine to the pot of boiling water, stir it around so it doesn't stick and let it cook along for 4 minutes or so.
And then drain it really well when it's done and serve it up in bowls with the roasted red pepper and Italian sausage cream sauce over the top.Finish with more grated parmesan cheese if you like.
Substitute any pasta you like for the fresh spinach fettuccine and cook according to directions.

The MVNO and roaming deal between French incumbent Orange, and the country's disruptive new entrant Free Mobile, has been highly controversial since Free launched its low cost 3G services and sparked a price war. The other cellcos, SFR and Bouygues, have hit out at Orange for enabling the unwelcome new competition. And now the antitrust agency, the Autorite de la Concurrence, has joined their criticism.
Free has its own 3G spectrum, but while it builds out its network, it relies on Orange's systems to fill in the gaps. This has provided welcome revenue for the leading operator, as prices have fallen in the mobile sector, but has aroused anger at the other two players. The government has also questioned whether Free is meeting the build-out targets in its licence.
Now the competition authority reiterates that Free should see its national roaming agreement with Orange brought to an end within the time limits already agreed, with no extensions. It insists that the roaming deal should be merely a stopgap to enable the new entrant to offer services even before its own network is complete. The current arrangement last until 2018, with a break clause at 2016. Free is said to be paying Orange over €1bn a year, a cost similar to that of rolling out its own network.
The statement from the Autorite came after an investigation into broader issues in the mobile market, including a review of policies on telco M&A or investment/network sharing. The probe also looked into whether roaming deals give new entrants an unfair advantage that could break competition laws and unbalance the market. The three cellcos would argue that Free has done this, with its cut-price, flat rate plans, its free Wi-Fi and its bundling of mobile services with its existing broadband and IPTV offerings.
However, the French regulator has already said that Free's entry has been "an effective instrument for the creation of jobs, growth and improving the country's competitiveness" in the long term, and said it would oppose any merger with a larger player. Free was rumored last year to be considering a merger with SFR.
The roaming issue will also rear its ugly head in 4G. In the French LTE spectrum auction, Free won 2.6GHz spectrum but none of the 800MHz licences considered essential for national coverage. The Autorite said the smallest player as the right to sign a roaming deal with SFR, but it is "not desirable that it is used to compensate for an inadequate frequency allocation strategy". It also conceded that, with regard to 2G roaming, there would be no "economic logic" to Free building a GSM network but a roaming agreement could allow the newcomer to support users with 2G-only devices. Any deal for GSM roaming in place after 2016 should be limited to that dwindling band of consumers, it suggested.

The CD turns thirty, notices bald spot
When Sony and Phillips ushered in the birth of the compact disc thirty years ago, the world was a very different place. The country where the first CD was pressed was called West Germany, and the world somehow entertained itself without Super Mario Brothers or Reddit.
Perhaps most terrifyingly, consumers still had to pay for music. Indeed, it was on October 1st, 1982 that Japan played host to the first commercially available CD-ROM — Billy Joel's 52nd Street was launched alongside the faux wood-paneled Sony CDP-101. The format began its march to worldwide domination the following year.
That dominance would last until last year, when sales of compact discs finally gave up the music industry's top revenue spot to digital sales. Considering that the CD ceded the gee-whiz spotlight to the Apple iPod in 2001, the resilience of the discs is laudable. Indeed, the CD will continue to play a significant role in music sales for the foreseeable future, but with streaming services on the upswing, it's arguable that the venerable format is two generations behind the curve.
For the day at least, the CD can again enjoy the spotlight. So go ahead and break out that dusty old portable CD player and spin up a few hot tracks of (hopefully skip-free) nostalgia.

Too Close For Comfort? Penton's Air Transport World Questions Government's Proximity To Boeing Before Grounding 787 Fleet
WASHINGTON, Jan. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Did heads of the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and Department of Transportation (DOT) put their credibility at risk, and perhaps air safety, too, when they reiterated their support of Boeing's 787 Dreamliner program prior to FAA's grounding of the US fleet?
In an editorial analysis entitled, "Too Close for Comfort?" to be published in the February issue of Air Transport World, Editor-in-Chief Karen Walker observes as reports of onboard lithium-ion battery fires flared this week, US Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood and FAA Administrator Michael Huerta seemed unnaturally quick to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Boeing Commercial Airplanes CEO Ray Conner and defend the aircraft, even as they were announcing a review of its design and production.
"It was not without personal risk that LaHood and Huerta made public statements of their confidence in the aircraft's safety before the reviews are concluded," writes Walker.
Regardless of the cause of the fires or outcome of any investigation, she says, "the value of FAA's safety review would be all the more credible had it begun from the position of clear and unequivocal independence."Click here to request an advance copy of Walker's editorial analysis.

Da`wah with Swag
Imam Suhaib Webb spoke at the Qurtuba Institute's event hosted by the ADAMS Center. He spoke about da`wah and how Muslim Americans can be more effective on outreaching to others.
6 Comments
Da'wah with swag! Had always enjoyed Imam Suhaib Webb's speeches. Especially the speeches he gave when he visited Malaysia.
Speaking of Da'wah, below is my style of Da'wah. A Ramadan spot about a regular Muslim's guy's struggle during Ramadan. Would really appreciate if you brothers & sisters could give feedback. I hope that Allah SWT accepts my ibadah and may Allah rewards us all.
I really love the subject and delivery of this topic. Sheikh Suhaib never disappoints, of course. But I'm often disappointed by the audio quality of Islamic lectures. The reverb on the audio makes it difficult for me to understand many points. So inshaAllah we're better than this and deserve better, try to improve that component of the experience. JAK for your efforts, they really are appreciated despite my little criticism.
Please improve the sound it echos, tried very hard to listen to the Khutba.
This is what INSHALLAH CLOTHING Co. is all about!!
This is REAL SON!
Pray long, stay strong!

The Comedy Arena is one of the biggest draws of the weekend at Latitude; always bursting at the seams as everyone sits back and enjoys the stellar stand up performances from the cream of the comedy circuit. This year a programme of the biggest names and the newest rising talent will ensure continuous laughter throughout the weekend.
Britains best female comic Jo Brand is the latest addition to the all-star Comedy line-up at Latitude Festival. Brand rose to fame in the 80s pioneering the burgeoning alternative comedy movement. Her stand-up routines, delivered in her distinctive monotone drawl, poked fun at her weight and men, a self-deprecating style with radical feminist tendencies. Although her humour has slightly softened her explicit over-sharing honesty is still her trademark and has helped earn her the inclusion in the Observers 50 funniest acts in Britain and a must-see contestant in everything Comic Relief throws at her.
Film-maker, presenter, writer and of course stand-up comic, Dave Gorman joins the comedy line-up. Famed for his award-winning previous shows, Are You Dave Gorman?, Googlewhack Adventures and America Unchained, he has just finished a stint on TV with his brilliant Genius show which was transferred from BBC Radio earlier this year. But its a return to the more traditional stand-up routine that will keep Gorman busy this summer and through to next year. After showcasing his new routine at Latitude he will then begin the first part of his tour travelling to and from each gig around the country on his bike taking in 32 venues.
Once the world record holder for most jokes told in an hour (499) Tim Vine is a master at word-play, puns and quick-fire one-liners. He has performed many times at the Edinburgh Festival as well as his own shows such as Tim Vine Live In Concrete at Shepherds Bush Empire and appeared regularly on TV including BAFTA winning The Sketch Show, Mastermind, Countdown, Spelling Bee and Comic Relief Does Fame Academy.
Hollywood film and TV star, political activist, writer and stand-up comic Janeane Garofalo is bringing her observational wit, fire and passion to the Comedy line-up. Her strong, left-wing, atheist beliefs have led her to take part in many marches, debate shows and co-host The Majority Report on Air America Radio Network. Famed not only for her film and screen roles in Reality Bites, The Truth About Cats and Dogs, 24, The Larry Sanders Show (for which she won two Emmys) to name but a few Garofalo first started out as a stand-up comic emerging in the late 80s - early 90s alternative comedy scene in L.A. A rare and wonderful outing for this phenomenal comic before her London show in September.
British stand-up comic and comedy circuit favourite, Stephen K. Amos has performed at Edinburgh Festival every year since 2003 and has also appeared on Live At The Apollo and the 2007 Royal Variety Performance as well as TV shows Mock The Week, The Wright Stuff and Have I Got News For You. His amiable style has earned him a Time Out Award for Comedy in 2004 and a Chortle Award for Best Compere three times, in 2004, 2007, 2008.
Canadian comic, singer-songwriter and actor Phil Nicol was first known as the guitar playing member of top musical comedy trio 'Corky and The Juice Pigs'. Phil's solo performances have earned him huge critical acclaim and many awards. He is a Tasmanian devil with a guitar, wickedly funny songs and superb improvisational skills that will be showcased in a string of dates in Edinburgh and at the London Comedy Store before he joins the Comedy Arena at Latitude.
Having been in the entertainment industry since a young age, Charlie Baker's experience shines through with his energetic and irrepressible show. This versatile star, with enthusiastic audience banter and interaction, plus a hidden wealth of musical talent as an accomplished, highly acclaimed Jazz singer and musician (solo, and with The Charlie Baker Band) is set to rise fast.
Kids may know him as Archie the Inventor in Balamory but Miles Jupp is also an award winning funnyman with live performances and appearances on Paramount Comedy TVs The World Stands Up. He won two new act competitions in 2001 Channel 4s So You Think Youre Funny and the Leicester Festival of The Year Award and in 2003 he was nominated for the Perrier Best Newcomer for his show Gentlemen Prefer Brogues.
Youthful and witty, Matt Kirshen is best known for his appearance as one of the top 10 finalists on the NBC talent show Last Comic Standing and for his hilarious breakthrough Channel 4 show RudeTube - a six-part guide to the wonderful world of the web. But its the perfectly timed gags and sarcastic sense of humour that is his winning formula.
Brighton-based newcomer Seann Walsh is already building up a strong profile after being proclaimed Winner of the Leicester Comedy Festival in 2009 and runner-up in the So You Think You're Funny? New Act Competition in 2008. Walsh has the special talent of delivering punchy fresh humour with a natural and appealing charm prompting Time Out to declare: Walsh is this generation's Dylan Moran, with the looks, gags and charm to become something quite special.
These additions join an incredible comedy line-up that includes Ed Byrne, Mark Thomas, Adam Hills, Sean Lock, The Early Edition hosted by Marcus Brigstocke, Sean Hughes, Andrew Lawrence, Rufus Hound, Jon Richardson, Russell Kane, Shappi Khorsandi and Jessica Delfino.
Literary Arena
Latitude celebrates the art of the written word and all its many splendid facets at Suffolks now legendary library by the sea. Like all good books, the Literary Arena will transport you to the far reaches of your imagination guided by the storytelling talents of the very best authors and special guests scheduled for the weekend. Discussions, Q&As, stories and comic genius are the order of the day for these book readings with a difference. Immerse yourself in Latitudes literary world and learn, explore, laugh and discover at the literary event of the summer.
Comic, writer and political activist Jeremy Hardy is one of Britains most well-established alternative stand-ups, unafraid to mix his socialist politics into his act. Although best known as a regular on Radio 4 panel games such as The News Quiz, Im Sorry I Havent A Clue and Just A Minute, Hardy was also a regular columnist for Guardian and has written two books, Jeremy Hardy Speaks To The Nation based on his Radio 4 series of the same name and When Did You Last See Your Father. He was nominated for the Perrier Award in 1987, and won it the following year, and has appeared at Montreals Just For Laughs festival as well as numerous tours of the UK and Ireland.
British novelist and writer Jonathan Coe brings his acclaimed satirical work to Latitude. His award-winning novels include: What a Carve Up! which reworks the plot of an old 1960s spoof horror film of the same name and is a caustic satire of British life in the 1980s, and won the Mail on Sunday/John Llewellyn Rhys Prize and the French Prix du Meilleur Livre Étranger (France). The Dwarves of Death (1990), a cult murder story filmed as Five Seconds to Spare in 1999 and The House of Sleep (1997), which won the Writers' Guild Award (Best Fiction) and the Prix Médicis Etranger (France) and recounts the adventures of a group of former university students. His work usually has an underlying preoccupation with political issues, although his serious side is always served with a clever wit and comedy. Coe has also written the narrative piece Say Hi To The Rivers And The Mountains with rock innovators, The High Llamas, which will be shown in the Theatre Arena.
Kate Williams has brought the past to life with her fantastic historical novels Becoming Queen (2007), about the passionate youth of Queen Victoria and Princess Charlotte, the Queen who never was, and England's Mistress: the Infamous Life of Emma Hamilton (2006). Her first book was 'Book of the Week' on Radio 4, shortlisted for the Marsh/ English Speaking Union Biography Prize, and a Book of the Year in the Times and Independent. But it was the BBC2 Timewatch special programme based on Becoming Queen called Young Victoria that had 2.2million captivated.
Comedian, musician, artist, author and actor Keith Allen will be performing his forthcoming spoken-word album, the vividly cinematic and thought-provoking 2 Pikeys On A Mini Cruise that he worked on together with musician and producer Pablo Cook. A powerful, passionate journey through reggae, funk, folk, disco, rock n roll and so much more.
Described as a twisted British fabulist by the San Francisco Chronicle, Rupert Thomson published his first, critically acclaimed novel Dreams of Leaving in the late 80s and has since published seven more novels including the award nominated Air and Fire, The Insult and Death of a Murderer. Thomsons style is hard to define as his novels subjects range from the gap between reality and perception to the male masochism.
Currently living in South London but originally from Zimbabwe, Brian Chikwava is part of a new generation of African writers and activists. The eclecticism of his work ranges from poetry, public discussions and music performances. His short story, Seventh Street Alchemy, was awarded the Caine Prize for African Writing in 2004 but it is his first novel, Harare North - a witty and suggestive but yet effortlessly dark comedy set in Brixton.
Sudanese former child soldier Emmanuel Jal has received worldwide acclaim for his African-style of hip hop spreading half-spoken, half-chanted messages of peace and reconciliation. His political lyrics have lead him to perform at the United Nations in New York as well as Nelson Mandela's 90th Birthday concert last year. But its his autobiography: War Child: A Boy Soldiers Story that will hold the Literary Arena captivated and move the crowd to tears.
The son of a gangster who was shot dead in front of his eyes when he was young, Bernie Katz has a very different story from most novelists. Katz considers himself a night owl who made the glitz, glamour, dirt and sleaze of Soho his life. After a job as front-of-house for the medias favourite Groucho Club for over 15 years, Katz put pen to paper in a gripping tell-all, dish-the-dirt, book called Soho Society about rent boys, film executives, drug addicts and other debauched Soho misbehaviour.
The Literary Arena already boasts a fantastic line-up including: The School Of Life, Robin Inces Book Club, Blake Morrison, Geoff Dyer and Tibor Fischer.
Cabaret Arena
If you want to experience something entirely different then seek out Latitudes quirky den of mischief and mayhem; the Cabaret Arena. Inside you will witness comedy sketch shows, burlesque, freak shows, drag queens, sing-a-longs, illusionists and much more. With Vaudeville fun, sharp, incisive wit, camp entertainment and a good ol fashioned knees up, the Cabaret Arena positively encourages you to leave your inhibitions at the door and be game for anything and everything. This surreal bordello of surprises and spectacular stage shows is visually rich, beautiful and bizarre and will tempt and titillate in equal measure.
King of cabaret Lenny Beige, infamous for his London West End club The Regency Rooms which started life in 1995 and sold out every one of its 10 seasons, has became a cult hit with regular appearances on TV chat shows and Channel 5s Night Fever. His energetic all-singing, all-dancing comedy extravaganza has won him a legion of fans including Matt Lucas and David Walliams, Sacha Baron Cohen, Armstrong and Miller, Terry Wogan and Chas & Dave!
TV Presenter Kirsten OBrien brings her bubbly, fun personality to the Cabaret Stage at Latitude this year. Her show Kirstens Topless Ambition debated whether she should change her innocent image from BBC childrens Smart! presenter to a more sexy, lads mags one in order to become a primetime starlet. She will certainly have a lot to tell about this experience! One not to miss.
Bourgeois & Maurice will share their healing and easy listening powerpop neo-cabaret with us. They will take you on a musical journey through the 21st century pop culture with original songs and dazzling films and frocks you'll just die for! They have rapidly developed a cult following after shows at venues as diverse as Sadler's Wells, the Astoria 2, Vauxhall's legendary Duckie and 93 Feet East and at a Bethnal Green Working Mens Club performance which was unashamedly littered with in-the-know A-listers including Keira Knightley, Orlando Bloom and Rupert Friend.
Regulars on the London Sketch scene and appearances on BBC 3's comedy shuffle, Tommy and the Weeks are Tom Bell and Ed Weeks, papery indie waif and 80s power-suited lothario. Together they produce comedy so good your mind will think it's won a prize. "Few since Spike Milligan have had Weeks and Bell's ability to flip us into unexpected comic universes." The Guardian
In Wanderlust, an interactive, theatrical show, the ten foot tall, faux-Bavarian powerhouse, Hilda, administers your dose of beauty and pain. The show bursts with circus, kabaret, projections, masks, a massive skirt, a video marionette, a parachute and two drinkable vodka puppets. In this fairytale story, Hilda (a.k.a. Jessica Weinstein) attains her extraordinary height by obtaining a brew from a witch in the Black Forest. Also featuring the mute Gretel on violin, piano and ukulele,, Hilda delightfully whips you, the audience, along from a storybook Bavaria through an outlandish Eastern Europe to an apocalyptic, booty shaking Jerusalem.
Isobel Cohen founded Helix Dance, a dance-theatre company based in Cambridge in 2005. Since then she has toured her originally choreographed productions both regionally and nationally and for Latitude she will be bringing her understated twist dance sensation 'The Great Escape' to the Cabaret Arena. She has also been selected for an Escalator for the Performing Arts, a pioneering initiative by Arts Council Englan:d East to support young artists in the region. As a dance-maker, Isobel believes in multi-discipline theatre, where dance, music and text play equal roles.
The Cabaret Arena also welcomes Zimbani, Deborah Frances-White, Holly Walsh & Sophie Black, Jessica Delfino, Cardinal Burns and Watson and Oliver.
Theatre Arena
With the involvement of the countrys leading theatre companies, Latitude has established itself as one of the best theatre festivals in Europe. An auditorium has been specially designed to perfectly present a full schedule of contemporary, physical, classical, performance and local productions bespoke to the festival. Not to be contained within the confines of the stage, theatre can be found around every corner at Latitude, emerging from the woods, performed on the banks of the lake as well as in the Theatre Arena, drawing inspiration from the surroundings. Theres something for everyone so take a chance on an unknown play or watch a critics choice at Latitude 2009.
Say Hi To The Rivers And The Mountains is a new show written by best-selling novelist Jonathan Coe and indie-pop innovators The High Llamas. Set on a brutalist 1960s housing estate, the story touches upon themes of community, adolescent love, growing old and above all, the inexorable rise of consumerism. The High Llamas will play live on stage, providing a continuous soundtrack as the story unfolds. Combining Brian Wilson-inspired pop symphonics, Tropicalia, German electronica and Italian soundtrack music, they are responsible for a series of acclaimed albums from their debut Gideon Gaye through to the now-classic Hawaii, Snowbug and most recently Can Cladders. Led by Sean OHagan, he is one of the most significant Irish musicians to emerge from the post-punk period and has since gone on to develop a major career with The High Llamas (with Marcus Holdaway, Jon Fell, Rob Allum, Dominic Murcott, Pete Aves) and has collaborated with some of the leading artists spanning the progressive music scene.
Elsewhere, the very best in film, theatre, comedy, literature, poetry, dance, art and cabaret will be pitching up at the fourth edition of Latitude Festival. Pet Shop Boys, Grace Jones and Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds will be headlining the Obelisk Arena plus Doves, Editors, Magazine, Gossip, Pretenders, Spiritualized, Ladyhawke, Little Boots and Bat For Lashes are also confirmed to play the music stages.
Top theatre productions presented by The Bush, Royal Shakespeare Company, nabokov, and National Theatre to name but a few will be running all weekend in the Theatre Arena. The stunning Waterfront Stage will host fantastic dance performances from Sadlers Wells and Royal Opera House as well as the dynamic orchestral brilliance that is Britten Sinfonia and The Irrepressibles.
The Literary Arena plays host to some incredible authors including Mark Steel, Tibor Fischer, Afternoon Tea with Stuart Maconie with special guests and of course Robin Inces Book Club; and the Poetry Arena will house yet more breathtaking performances from some of the top poets around: Jackie Kay, Simon Armitage, Andrew Motion, Luke Wright and Jeffrey Lewis. Jeffery Lewis is also in the Film & Music Arena along with Mark Lamarrs Gods Jukebox and LateNightTales who will be presenting some fabulous live performances from an eclectic set of bands.
The Cabaret Arena welcomes Zimbani, Deborah Frances-White, Holly Walsh & Sophie Black, Jessica Delfino, Cardinal Burns and Watson and Oliver plus plenty more exciting performances to announce.
Latitude Festival happens at Henham Park Estate in Suffolk from Friday 17th to Sunday 19th July 2009.

October 23, 1999. The day my life changed forever.
I was spending my Saturday the way I usually spent them: getting up early to play a sport (it was soccer that day), then warming up the Super Nintendo attempting to beat Super Mario World until either I got frustrated with the game, the console overheated, or, the usual culprit, my 8:00 bedtime rolled around (sadly, my mom sold my Nintendo before I could beat the game). On this particular Saturday night, my parents approached me with the news that we were going to Nashville for the night for a church outing.
Outside, I nodded in understanding. Inside, I was fuming.
The hour long ride to Nashville seemed to take two. Whining to my parents was not an option, since they saw that as backtalk, and you didn't backtalk my parents. Eventually my attitude turned from furious to curious when I walked into the then-named Gaylord Entertainment Center. When I saw the arena floor, it dawned on me what was about to happen: I was about to see my first hockey game.
Outside of watching D2: The Mighty Ducks a few dozen times, my knowledge of hockey at the time was very limited. Even then, I remember how enamored I was over the next two and a half hours. It was much faster than traditional American sports, and it was action-packed, just the way I liked it. Nashville ended up beating Edmonton that night 4-3, and the Preds gained a fan that night. I was hooked.
As I'm sure you've gathered by now, I grew up in a very strict household, so with that came no cable television, internet, newspapers, or any source of the like that allowed to me keep up with the team. However, at the game I got my hands on the one of the wallet sized schedules by the ticket window, and there I discovered the games were aired on the radio. Up until I was sixteen, I was able to make it to only one game per season, so for the other 81, Pete Weber and Terry Crisp pretty much became my best friends. Most game nights I was able to listen to the first period without incident, but when bedtime rolled around, off went the stereo, out went the lights, and out came my walkman radio that I hid underneath my bed (I eventually had two backups, as my mom caught me on more than one occasion). Even at sixteen and licensed to drive, my mom dreaded the idea of me going to Nashville by myself, so it wasn't until I turned eighteen and moved on to college that I was able to attend more games.
I was a casual fan over the first eight years of being a hockey fan. I kept up with the team and listened to all of the games, but that was pretty much it. The turning point for me becoming a passionate hockey fan took place in 2008. However, the Preds nothing to do with it.
I took ROTC in high school for three years. During my senior year, myself and the rest of the seniors decided to take the corp of some sort of trip to celebrate our graduation. After much debate, we selected a spring break visit to our nation's capital. During the planning process, I randomly threw out the idea of attending a Caps game. The suggestion was well-received to my surprise, so I was left in charge of choosing which game to go to. I chose Washington-Carolina on April 1st, 2008.
Fast forward to that day. We walk into the Verizon Center... into a sea of red. Somehow I had failed to realize that the game we were about to witness had major playoff implications. Carolina was two points up on Washington in the division race, and Caps fans had packed the place and were deafening the entire game. Since we weren't wearing red, it was obvious we weren't from the area. Some fans were complete jerks since they assumed we were Carolina fans, but some fans actually inquired as to why we were at the game. Once some of those fans figured out I was a Preds fan, conversations started flying around on different topics, mostly concerning the Preds themselves, as most of the fans I talked to knew little to nothing about them. It was then I realized that I wasn't as knowledgeable a hockey fan as I knew I could be. I was having a hard time staying in the conversations, since I didn't know what they were talking about half the time. That, as well as the combination of the passion I saw from the crowd last night, made me bound and determined to become a better hockey fan. The Caps won convincingly that night (along with easily the greatest goal I've ever seen in person), and ended up sending Carolina in a tailspin that eventually had them on the outside looking in when the playoffs arrived the next week.
I was fortunate to be able to attend Game 4 of the Preds-Red Wings playoff series two weeks later. It was my second playoff game (I was at Game 1 of the previous year's series against San Jose when we lost in double OT). Ever since then, I've been trying to learn and understand everything about the best sport on the face of the planet. I am by no means an expert, but if I were to go back to Washington and try to have some of those same conversations that I had back then, I believe I would be able to hold my own.
- I don't expect to blow anyone away with my writing on this blog for two reasons: I have zero journalism/writing experience of which to speak of, and even though I've been a hockey fan since I was nine, there are still many aspects of the game of which I do not fully understand just yet. If I'm not 100% comfortable with bringing up a subject while holding a decent conversation about it afterwards, then I'll more than likely just keep my mouth shut.
- For now, posts will be few and far between, and probably probably be spur of the moment, much like the decision to create this blog was. My current job doesn't allow me to watch every single game as I would like to. I don't want my writing to sound even the least bit generic.
- I don't think of myself as a funny individual, and I'm rarely sarcastic. I like to try and get my point across as quickly as possible.I don't have snappy sounding features (yet), but I won't rule out the possibility of having something of the sort in the future. It all depends on how the whole blogging experience works out for me.
So there you have it. I'll be honest, I'm pretty nervous as to how this is going to work out. This type of thing is very new to me, so please bear with me while I figure things out. I welcome your comments/suggestions/criticism with open arms; I'm going to make mistakes, and I'm going to make stupid remarks. Hopefully some of you guys out there can keep me in line.
Go Preds!

Symmetry Lesson
Required products:
Tool Factory Painter
Tool Factory Painter
White Board/Chalk Board
One sticky note for each student
Pencil for each student
Students will be able to use Tool Factory Painter to create a picture that is symmetrical.
1. Write the word symmetry on the board.
2. Ask students what does symmetry mean? They should arrive at an idea such as, "same on both sides".
3. Explain to students that symmetry is the same as a mirror image or a reflection in water.
4. Give each student a piece of sticky note.
5. Tell students to fold the piece of paper in half.
6. Open the paper up and draw a quick picture on one side of the paper. I recommend drawing a half of a picture that meets the crease in the paper. (For example, half of a heart)
7. Refold the paper.
8. On the outside of folded paper, on the side that you drew the picture, have students use their pencils to color or shade in on top of the picture they drew on the inside of the folded paper. They should color pretty dark to make this work.
9. Have students open up the folded paper. Ask, "What do you notice about the paper?"
10. Students should respond with they see the picture on the other side of the paper, it is like the picture is looking in a mirror.
11. Explain that this is symmetry.
12. Now that they have done this using paper and pencil they are going to try and create a symmetrical picture using the computer.
13. Have students log on to a computer and click on Tool Factory Painter.
14. Tell students to right click on the button in the top tool bar that looks like a person on a paper.
15. Click on "Left/Right" then click "OK"
16. Draw various shapes and pictures on one side of the page.
17. Watch as those shapes and pictures show up on both sides of the paper.
18. Allow students to play with the program for a bit, discovering symmetry for themselves.
19. After about 10 minutes of exploring, have students log off the computer. Write a question on the board for students to answer in their math journals.
20. The question they are to answer in their journals is "What is symmetry?"
21. Collect journals to be graded.
Follow-up Activities
Have the students use Tool Factory Word processor to create a report on symmetry. Do an EDIT>COPY in Tool Factory Painter, then open up Tool Factory Word Processor and do an EDIT>PASTE. Then write the report about the image they drew.
Cross-Curriculum Ideas
Art - Create a bulletin board of symmetrical artwork.

The best CG artists I know are great traditional sculptors, painters, etc. More art fundamentals can make your transition very easy sometimes. The mantra is "curiosity and hard work...".
