Nice quality I like the dress and it is a thicker fabric which isn't see through. My only complaint is the length is a little short. I don't think I'd feel comfortable at the office without tights underneath. I'm not a tall person either. For reference, 5"4 and 110 lbs. I bought an XS and don't think the top would fit snugly if I sized up. February 22, 2014
Perfect year-round dress I'd seen this dress in my local TL store a couple of times but never looked twice. Recently, it made the clearance rack for a great price and I decided to try it on. This dress hugs the curves nicely and is a perfect length; not too short, not too long. The material is comfortable and breathable. I wore it with tights and knee high black boots, but will definitely wear it in the spring with open toed shoes. Received many compliments on this. This is a great buy!! February 13, 2014
Great Dress I love this dress. I am 5'4" and weigh 118 lbs. and the small fit me perfectly. It is well made, very comfortable to wear, and the color is great. The only slightly odd thing about the dress is that the flap in the front opens a little when I walk, showing the red underside of the fabric. This does not diminish how good the dress is though. I would buy more in other patterns and colors. January 30, 2014
Perfect Dress I purchased this dress in the red/black and the black/white. I am 5'10" 175 and curvy. I ordered a L, and it is perfect. The material is a bit of a heavier weight than I expected, and I feel this would be a great 3-season dress. Tights and boots with a sweater or cardigan in the winter, and heels in the spring and fall. It fits like a glove and is very flattering. I LOVE this dress. January 30, 2014
Instant polish Throw this over your head and go! Drapes beautifully and the pattern is very pretty (and forgiving!). I love it so much I am coming back to order the black and white grid pattern. Very sharp with heels and a blazer or cardigan for the office, or with boots and tights on the weekend. I am 5"3" and 120 pounds and the small fits nicely. Cute, cute, cute! January 6, 2014
This is a great dress! I buy alot of dresses from the Limited. This dress as not a disappointment at all... In fact I purchased one for my daughter as a gift for Christmas. Good thing because when she saw mine she loved it. Great colors, nicely made and looks wonderful on your body. January 6, 2014
Excellent buy! Substantial weight knit, fully lined. LOVE the orange & black print - will be great w/black tights. I'm a 36C and the medium fits perfectly. The neckline does not plunge too deeply - a problem sometimes with a wrap - so no need for a cami or pins at the neckline. Nice length - I'm 5'4" and this hits just slightly above the knee - perfect work dress. Also bought in black geometric print - so glad I did. December 16, 2013

Ponzi may have been a charlatan, but he was also a wonderfully likable man. His intentions were noble, his manners impeccable, his sales pitch enchanting. Born to a genteel Italian family, he immigrated to the United States with big dreams but no money. Only after he became hopelessly enamored of a stenographer named Rose Gnecco and persuaded her to marry him did Ponzi light on the means to make his dreams come true. His true motive was not greed but love.
With rich narrative skill, Mitchell Zuckoff conjures up the feverish atmosphere of Boston during the weeks when Ponzi's bubble grew bigger and bigger. At the peak of his success, Ponzi was taking in more than $2 million a week. And then his house of cards came crashing down, thanks in large part to the relentless investigative reporting of Richard Grozier's Boston Post.
In Zuckoff's hands, Ponzi is no mere swindler; instead he is appealing and magnetic, a colorful and poignant figure, someone who struggled his whole life to attain great wealth and who sincerely believed, to the very end, that he could have made good on his investment promises if only he'd had enough time. Ponzi is a classic American tale of immigrant life and the dream of success, and the unexpectedly moving story of a man who, for a fleeting, illusory moment, attained it all.
©2005 Mitchell Zuckoff; (P)2005 Books on Tape, Inc.
"Zuckoff...tells Ponzi's story amicably and briskly, and keeps the complicated financial intricacies understandable." (The New York Times Book Review)
"Zuckoff's biography of Ponzi is meticulously accurate, based on memoirs and newspaper accounts of the day, weaving the story of the rise of this small-time Italian immigrant with that of Richard Grozier, second-generation editor of the Boston Post." (Booklist)
"Very enlightening"
Having heard of a Ponzi Scheme nearly all my life, it was very, very interesting to find out where and how it all started (and ended). This certainly falls into the "...it seemed like a good idea at the time..." category. I enjoyed this book very much.
"A great book"
I have seldom enjoyed a book more, and Grover Gardner's reading as always is the best! An inciteful look at the 20's and at the shambles that was (and still is?) Boston politics.
history buff
"An odd book"
What does this book have going for it? It has a great narrator & a brisk style of writing. What does this book have going against it? Alot of extraneous material shoved in to make it thicker, a fairly despicable main character who is painted somewhat sympathetically by the author, a relatively simple-minded fraud (unlike two other books on tape I have recently listened to off of Audible -- on Enron & on LTCM) that does not have enough finance intricacy to be of significant interest. Oh, I should say that the book is probably worth reading just so you know where the term Ponzi scheme came from. I am sorry that I am not more enthusiastic about it.
"Surprise yourself! Sympathize with a crook!"
About the second or thrid best book I've listened to.
It is hard not to sympathize with Charles Ponzi, who had a brilliant idea put forgot to put the paperwork in the mail. And forgot to do the real work too. But by selling his efforts as "Helping the little man", became everyone's hero.
His reading speed is brilliant, and the subtle way in which he emphasizes important quotes makes listening very easy and entertaining.
"Good read"
A truly fascinating story that is set up very well by the author in order to have the reader understand the context of how Ponzi could coordinate such a scheme(scam). There is a bit more information than is necessary, like the entire college history of who turns out to be the main antagonist, but it was worth it in the end. This is moxie beyond imagination........
Everyone has heard of the term Ponzi Scheme, and this book details his life. Very entertaining, great reader. Ponzi was a nut.
I love this kind of historical books! Easy and pleasureable to listen to while learning.
"Informative and entertaining"
This is the type of publication that is perfect as an audiobook. The author tells the facts about Ponzi, in a way that makes it as entertaining and dramatic as good fiction. There?s a lot of material on the subject of Ponzi and Boston in the 20?s, and I?m sure some of it could have been left out without compromising the book. But it is an entertaining insight in the man, Ponzi, and in the mechanisms that lead to the dramatic end of the story.
"A great listen!"
I found this book to be VERY interesting and like Ponzi thru out the book. I only wish the story was longer. It was a good way to learn about the man, and frankly I liked him very much.
"Crazy rise & fall of ambitious, oddly unaware, man"
Story of Ponzi's life is well told, if maybe too briefly, before and after the main days of his Scheme. In the midst of the craziness of the Scheme, when hundreds of thousands of dollars are flowing into Ponzi's company, the author does a very good job of reconstructing. He carries us along as each of the players involved converged on Ponzi's ultimate downfall. As for Ponzi, he was oddly unaware of the harm he was causing. From this author's telling, he could see moral problems in some areas of his and other's lives, but not as much with his Scheme.

The Graduate Teacher Certification Program encourages graduate students to examine their interest and fitness for teaching, to improve communication and teamwork skills, to understand various teaching and learning methods, and to develop as professionals in their fields. Participation in teaching enhancement activities offered through the Graduate Teacher Program and through academic departments is required. To qualify for Graduate Teacher Certification, graduate teachers must complete the requirements detailed below. For your records, we recommend that you keep track of your attendance at workshops toward certification using the Personal Attendance Tracking Form.
A. Classroom Teaching
To qualify for and participate in Graduate Teacher Certification, graduate students must teach for two full semesters; this includes courses, recitations, and laboratories.
B. GTP Workshops
Certification requires the completion of 20 Graduate Teacher Program workshops. Workshops address the needs of beginning and experienced graduate teaching assistants and instructors. Graduate teachers should choose activities that are appropriate for their personal level of experience. Workshops cover topics from the following areas:
- general pedagogy (beginning and advanced)
- personal and professional development
- multicultural and gender issues in teaching and course design
- academic policies (sexual harassment, academic ethics)
- assessment and evaluation (self, course, and student)
- preparation of teaching portfolios
- technology and teaching
A variety of experiences are available: the Fall Intensive, Friday Forums, Monday Workshops, Spring Conference, Summer Series, PFF sessions, and occasional special workshops. Make sure you sign in at each workshop you attend, otherwise you will not get credit for attendance.
C. Discipline-Specific Workshops
All graduate teachers wishing to be certified will complete credits on teaching in their discipline. Departmental activities, courses on teaching, workshops or regular meetings with the faculty supervisor, faculty mentor, or lead graduate teacher may fulfill the discipline-specific requirement. A minimum of 20 hours of discipline-specific work is required; however, the department may require more. If the department does not provide enough discipline-specific training, potential certificants can substitute additional Graduate Teacher Program Workshops.
D. Videotape Consultation
Two videotape consultations (based on recitation sections, laboratory sections, or courses the graduate teacher is teaching for a full semester) are required for certification. The graduate teacher, in consultation with a Graduate Teacher Program staff consultant or lead graduate teacher, develops a plan for improvement based on video self-assessment. The first videotape consultation should be completed early in the program; the second at least three months later. Consultations are confidential and non-evaluative. Public speaking engagements, talks in colloquia, or single lectures given in the place of a faculty member may not be used to complete the videotape consultation portion of Graduate Teacher Certification.
E. Observation and Evaluation
A faculty member from the home department observes and evaluates each candidate for certification during a regular class, recitation, or lab session. To qualify for certificates, candidates must meet departmental standards for proficiency in teaching. Faculty may consider evidence of content knowledge, general pedagogical proficiency, and pedagogical content knowledge as well as evidence of biased teaching, use of technology, and academic ethics. The faculty member may decide to recommend the graduate teacher for certification or may request that the graduate teacher attain a higher level of proficiency and undergo a follow-up evaluation prior to certification. A written observation and evaluation report by a faculty member must be sent to the Graduate Teacher Program office: 362 UCB. A copy should also be kept in the graduate teacher's department file.
F. Teaching Portfolio
Certificants are required to prepare a personal teaching portfolio. The portfolio includes a narrative describing their philosophy of teaching, a teaching biography, their experiences with assessment and evaluation, pedagogical training and professional development, and future teaching goals. The narrative should be supported by such relevant data as syllabi, reading lists, handouts, quizzes and examinations, and consolidated scores on the Faculty Course Questionnaire. Letters of recommendation on teaching effectiveness and selected student materials or comments may also provide useful supportive information. Certificants may consult with their home departments and/or with Graduate Teacher Program staff regarding the development of their portfolio. Portfolios must be approved by the Graduate Teacher Program.
G. Final Assessment
Upon recommendation from the department, the Graduate Teacher Program director reviews each candidate's file and portfolio and approves the candidate's certification. Before the candidate receives certification, he or she must complete a GTP exit survey at Zoomerang.com.
It is important that the candidate notify the GTP upon completion of the exit survey to receive a Graduate Teacher Certificate. To do this, send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com once you have completed the survey.
International Graduate Teachers
To be certified, graduate teaching assistants (TAs) and graduate part-time instructors (GPTIs) from other countries have two additional requirements. First, they are required to attend one International Graduate Teacher Cultural Intensive which is held prior to the fall semester. Second, if their first language is not English, they must take a screening examination administered by Dr. Antonia Johnson, department of Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences and the Talk Mastery Center. Upon completion of the examination, Dr. Johnson will make a recommendation to the student and to the Graduate Teacher Program. For more information, please email Dr. Johnson at email@example.com or call (303) 499-5117.
Time Commitment
As learning to teach effectively is a developmental process, we suggest that graduate teachers complete the requirements over a minimum of two or more years. It is possible to complete requirements comfortably over a period or two years. Both the Fall Intensive and the Spring Conference take place before regular classes begin. Other workshops are held throughout the academic year and during summer school.
Graduate teachers (graduate part-time instructors and graduate teaching assistants) who teach recitations, labs, or classes in any department, school, or college on the Boulder campus may register for Graduate Teacher Certification. Graduate students who only grade or hold office hours do not qualify for Graduate Teacher Certification, but may request written acknowledgment of their participation in Graduate Teacher Program activities. However, these graduate students are invited to participate in the Professional Development Certificate.
Graduate students are automatically registered for certification when they attend their first GTP workshop. The requirements to complete the certification are as follows
A. Classroom Teaching (courses, recitations, or labs) 2 semesters B. Core Graduate Teacher Program Workshops 20 workshops required C. Discipline-Specific Workshops (can substitute GTP workshops if department does not have program) 20 hours required D. Classroom Videotape Consultation (can be done by GTP or by home department) 2 required E. Classroom Observation (by home department/faculty supervisor) 1 required Written Departmental Evaluation (by home department) 1 required F. Teaching Portfolio required G. Final Assessment by GTP Director (a letter of acceptance will be sent to you) required

In Bash, when defining an alias, one usually loses the completion related to the function used in that alias (that completion is usually defined in /etc/bash_completion using the complete builtin).
It's easy to reuse the work done for that completion in order to have smart completion for our alias.
That's what is done by this command line (that's only an example but it may be very easy to reuse).
Note 1 : You can use given command line in a loop "for old in apt-get apt-cache" if you want to define aliases like that for many commands.
Note 2 : You can put the output of the command directly in your .bashrc file (after the ". /etc/bash_completion") to always have the alias and its completion
Uses the last argument of the last executed command, and gets the directory name from it.
Use $!:t for the filename alone, without the dirname.
I wanted all the 'hidden' .flv files from the http link in the command line; wget seemed appropriate, fed with output from lynx, grep the flv files and the normalised via sed (to remove the numeric bullet). Similar to the 'Grab mp3 files' fu. Replace link with your own, grep arg with something more interesting ;) See here for something along the same lines...
Hope you find it useful! Improvements welcome, naturally.
Create a bunch of random files with random binary content. Basically dd dumps randomly from your hard disk to files random-file*.
Add this to your $HOME/.bashrc file. It will only set this prompt if it is running inside screen ($WINDOW var is set)
Looks like this...
a shorter version
This command finds the 5 (-n5) most frequently updated logs in /var/log, and then does a multifile tail follow of those log files.
Alternately, you can do this to follow a specific list of log files:
sudo tail -n0 -f /var/log/{messages,secure,cron,cups/error_log}
Create a single tar.gz archive
I know it's a very basic one, but it's one I keep forgetting.
To ensure that it will never come back, you can edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
Add "blacklist pcspkr" sans quotes
Save the script as: sort_file
Usage: sort_file < sort_me.csv > out_file.csv
This script was originally posted by Admiral Beotch in LinuxQuestions.org on the Linux-Software forum.
I modified this script to make it more portable.
Files containing ascii art (e.g. with .nfo extension) are typically not correctly reproduced at the command line when using cat. With iconv one can easily write a wrapper to solve this:
if [ -z "$@" ]; then echo "Usage: $(basename $0) file [file] ..."
else iconv -f437 -tutf8 "$@"; fi
exit 0
print multiple increasing years using cal - calendar -. You can also try
seq Start Increment End
for i in $@; do
if [ "$1" != "$i" ]
echo /newInstall/gem install $1 -v=\"$i\"
/newInstall/gem install $1 -v="$i"
if [ "$?" != "0" ]
echo -e "\n\nGEM INSTALL ERROR: $1\n\n"
echo "$1" > gemInst.err
When you use a "for" construct, it cycles on every word. If you want to cycle on a line-by-line basis (and, well, you can't use xargs -n1 :D), you can set the IFS variable to .
Generates a frequency sweep from $x to $y, with $d numbers inbetween each step, and with each tone lasting $l milliseconds.
defines a handy function for quick calculations from cli.
once defined:
? 10*2+3
Useful if non-ascii characters in filenames have been improperly encoded. Replace "PROBLEM" with the incorrect characters (e.g. 'é'), and "FIX" with the correct ones (e.g. '?').
If you should happen to find yourself needing some binary numbers, this is a quickie way of doing it. If you need more digits, just add more "{0..1}" sequences for each digit you need. You can assign them to an array, too, and access them by their decimal equivalent for a quickie binary to decimal conversion (for larger values it's probably better to use another method). Note: this works in bash, ksh and zsh. For zsh, though, you'll need to issue a setopt KSH_ARRAYS to make the array zero-based.
echo ${binary[9]}
curl doesn't provide url-encoding for 'GET' data, it have an option '--data-urlencode', but its only for 'POST' data. Thats why I need to write down this commandline. With 'perl', 'php' and 'python', this is one liner, but just I wrote it for fun. Works in Ubuntu, will work in all linux varients(I hope it will work in unix varients also).
Yes, it's useless.

Though I appreciated and enjoyed "Wall-E," I took issue with the baffling insistence of the filmmakers to gender the robots. A love story between machines is an interesting prospect with very queer implications, but clearly signaling gender seems like a counterintuitive safeguarding against an overly-sensitive and ultimately homophobic population.

Link returns to the GBA for an all-new gigantic adventure on a miniature scale! The Minish people may be very small, but they hold the key to restoring an ancient sword and stopping the evil mage Vaati from destroying Hyrule. Link will, of course, battle evil, swordfight against bad guys, and solve plenty of dungeon puzzles as usual. Then, put on the mystical Minish Cap and shrink Link down to microscopic size. Explore the land of the Minish people, a tiny race in need of a larger-than-life hero. Find the fragments of the magical Kinstones which have been scattered across the world, and fuse them together to unlock the secrets of Minish.

At Johnson & Wales University's College of Culinary Arts, we know that how you cook is as important as what you cook.
We developed our Gold Standard for Food Safety to seamlessly integrate safety procedures into our culinary curriculum and throughout our food service facilities. Now, thanks to a grant from the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC), we're sharing our expertise with you.
Recipe for a Food-Safe Kitchen or Classroom Whether you're a food service professional, an educator or a home cook, a little practice is all it takes for proper food safety to become second nature. We've developed these supplementary materials to help make food safety both accessible and intuitive.
1) Understand the Major Food Safety Risk Factors Knowledge is key to making food-safe choices. First step: learning and understanding the major food risk factors.
2) Develop Good Habits to Prevent Foodborne Illness Hand-washing and cleanliness are essential to food safety. Our "Gold Standard for Food Safety Guide" (2MB PDF) covers the prevention of foodborne illnesses, including
The guide also includes procedure-specific flyers that you can print, duplicate and post in your kitchen, classroom or workspace, including
Normas de Excelencia para la Seguridad de los Alimentos (Spanish version, 3MB PDF)
3) Organize Your SpaceOrganizing your space is equally crucial, whether you're a home cook with a small kitchen or a food service professional overseeing a large kitchen with multiple stations. While the economies of scale may be different, the principles are the same.
The "Gold Standard Guide" (2MB PDF) explains how to best organize your workspace, food storage areas and refrigerator(s) to minimize the potential for bacterial growth and/or cross-contamination.
Food Safety for the Whole Family"Families Cook: Nutritious Recipes with a Side of Food Safety" (2MB PDF) and "Las Familias Cocinan: Recetas Nutritivas" (Spanish version, 3MB PDF) focus on fun, healthy food that you can make with the whole family. Each recipe includes food safety tips to start the habit early.

Making the Case for Ad Portals
Driving automation is key, but for some, portals have been slow to take off.
The basic definition of an ad portal is a technology that allows advertisers and agencies to submit files electronically. In reality, though, ad portal technology varies widely from Web-based to application and software-based systems; from portals that simply handle the submission process to ones that are fully integrated with trafficking and billing systems. Here, Folio: takes a look at some different examples, as well as how ad portal technology in general is evolving.
Varying Forms of Ad Portals
Some publishers use an ad portal provided by their printer or third party pre-press vendor, which is especially helpful for companies that don't manage their own ad production, according to Peter Meirs, vice president of production technologies at Time Inc. His company, which does manage its own ad production, uses a standalone portal provider called VIO. Currently, the portal is application-based, which means advertisers need to download and continually update software. However, he says the company plans to switch to a Web-based portal once the technology becomes available through VIO.
"If [publishers] have a large number of ads coming from a relatively small number of sources, an application may be a better choice than a Web service," Meirs says. "If their suppliers are far ranging and include international advertisers, it's wise to consider a Web-based solution."
Cathy Merolle, director of production operations at Hearst magazines, says more and more publishers are adopting Web-based portals. Her company launched its Web-based portal with its pre-press provider HudsonYards this February. After six months, she says some titles have almost 70 percent of their ads coming in through the portal with the goal to make that 100 percent for all magazines by the end of the year.
"Driving automation is the mission," she says. "We consider the portal as a major first step in the pursuit of our ultimate goal of proofless printing."
According to Merolle, it's important to keep it simple. "We wanted the ad submitter to go through a minimal amount of clicks before actual uploading, and not have to navigate through multiple screens." Since launch, Hearst has added enhancements such as links to the SWOP site, a downloadable G7 color bar, alerts on proofing requirements and a Pay-Pal-type offering in case advertisers want to purchase proofs.
Niche Media recently signed on to the SendMyAd service, which allows advertisers to see and fix problems with their preflighted ads right away, instead of receiving a rejection e-mail later. "Day-to-day productivity has increased, and as the ad volume has increased, the portal has absorbed a great deal of the workload," says Niche's director of manufacturing Shawn Lowe. "Only the good ads come in, the bad ones are the advertisers' problem."
Since launching a portal, Lowe says the company has saved 25 percent in cost and time. Since signing up for the SendMyAd platform, he says savings have increased to 40 percent.
Paula Gordon, director of manufacturing at Reed Business Information, says her company has also seen significant savings with its portal, developed with printer Fry Communications. She says RBI has eliminated five to 10 positions related to preflight specifically.
Who Is Using It?
Ad portals allow publishers to reduce cycle time, minimize expense and gain control of—while taking a step back from—the ad submission process. Yet, 76 percent of publishers are still not using them, according to Folio:'s 2008 Manufacturing and Production Trends survey [see page 44]. Why the hesitation?
"Basically, cultural and control issues," says Scott Pellicone, vice president of business development at Quebecor World Premedia. "Publishers are still very protective of their advertising clients and are extremely cautious when deploying any customer facing technologies."
At Fry Communications, less than 1 percent of its total number of clients are working with ad portals, but that number jumps to 30 to 35 percent among larger clients with 7 to 10 publications, according to senior pre-press manager Mark Stoner.
Where It's Heading
At Hearst, the next step is developing a system to automate the process through the supply chain using JDF. "Also, we will want to develop a system that will capture and embed additional metadata to help publishers manage their files for digital asset management and digital rights managements," says Merolle. According to her, more and more publishers will be looking to connect their portals to other internal systems.
Meirs says this is a big area of opportunity for portal companies, which could someday help facilitate the digital exchange of both production and insertion order information along with the ad files themselves between ad suppliers and publishers.
TechInsights Launches Online Portal for Ad Buyers
Up next: Preflight checks.
United Business Media's TechInsights group, which includes brands such as EE Times and TechOnline, has launched an online portal that allows customers to independently search and buy ad packages among its more than 80 products.
The portal, called TechInsights Direct, was developed in partnership with Balihoo, a company that sells advertising productivity tools. It is designed to be a "one-stop shop;" a site where marketers can search and browse inventory, purchase advertising and upload their creative directly. Though TechInsights CEO Paul Miller says he is "loathe to say it is the Expedia of the media space," he says it is similar in that it puts research and transaction capabilities into the buyer's hands.
"This will help us with the long tail of customers we can't reach," Miller told Folio:. "It's a way for these customers to come in and begin that process of interacting. It's good for small customers and great for incremental spends from existing customers."
The portal is also designed to free up salespeople's time. "Our sales people don't need to be used on a smaller $3,000 sale," Miller says. "That can clog up a whole week if you're not careful."
TechInsights pays Balihoo an annual renewable licensee for the software itself and offers some revenue share. The group has also created two positions dedicated to TechInsights Direct.
"Our expectations are that revenues are going to grow," says Miller. "By how much? I don't know quite yet, but this will expose our product lines to more clients and make it easier for them to do business."
According to Shane Vaughan, vice president of marketing at Balihoo, the technology isn't quite an ad portal just yet, as it isn't able to preflight check files, but those capabilities are on Balihoo's roadmap. For companies that already have ad portals, he says, "the two systems are integrated and work in conjunction."

tutoring pros and cons?
Find a Conversation
|Thu, 03-18-2010 - 10:11pm
So, next year I won't have a job and I still need to make some money. One of the easiest and most logical things I can think of is to tutor. I have found lots of tutoring opportunities online (mostly ESL, which I have some experience with) and there are tutoring opportunities in the community (face to face).
So, I'm trying to figure out which I should pursue, and was wondering what the pros and cons of each one would be. Anyone have any thoughts?
|Sat, 03-20-2010 - 6:58pm
Thanks for your advice Sherry. I do think that face to face would be more rewarding, and I'd have more control over who, when, where, etc. I have a link to several online tutoring sites, but I haven't applied to any or decided on any specific one. As far as face to face, I was just considering going into business for myself. I have a strong background in Math and Science, but and weak in Reading instruction (I'm stronger than I used to be, but still not sure of myself). A teacher here in town told me that parents are searching for people in town who can teach using Barton Reading system. http://www.bartonreading.com/
I even have my first client for the summer if I choose to use it! I don't want to purchase it unless I know I can get a few clients. I think I can make things work if I can get about 6 hours of tutoring per week (that doesn't seem like much, but maybe I'm wrong and 6 hours will feel like forever). If I invest in this Barton program, I might need to take on another hour or two to pay for it, or simply increase my price for those who would be using it.
Since I'm staying at home with the baby, and my husband travels about 5 weeks a year, I'd like something that's a bit flexible.
I still haven't figured out where I'd tutor. That is going to be interesting to figure out. My house is probably not the greatest idea. Their house may be the same way. I think the library said no more to all tutors for pay in their building recently, but I'm going to have to find out.
Thanks again!

I've tutored face to face and with our course platform I reply to a lot of online questions from my regular students. I'm sure that isn't quite the same as on the web but it does require a specific form of communication to be clear and concise. I've also taught online courses and that requires a different approach and structure.
Face to face is rewarding if it is a reasonable assignment. I've worked with students who needed help with a specific subject due to a learning disability, students that were generally behind their classmates and needed both catch-up work and things like organization and study skills help, and students with real issues, physical and emotional,

IPG losses reach $71m despite revenue rise in Q1
Interpublic Group's (IPG) pre-tax losses for the first quarter of 2013 were $71m (£46.6m), up 8.7% year on year from the $65.3m (£43m) it posted in the same period of 2012.
Michael Roth: chairman and chief executive of IPG
First quarter revenue for 2013, however, was up 2.4% year on year to $1.54bn (£1.01bn), at IPG. Revenues in the US rose only slightly, from $879.7m (£577.6m) to £894.4m (£587.2m), while international income increased from $627.1m (£411.8m) to $648.6m (£425.9m).
On an organic basis revenue increased by 2.3% compared to the prior-year period, led by an organic revenue increase of 4.9% in IPG's international business, which includes the UK. Organic revenue growth in the US was 0.5%.
Net losses at IPG, which owns McCann Erickson and DrafFCB, were $59.2m (£38.8m) resulting in a $0.14 loss per share for investors.
The overall loss came down partly to increases in the group's operating costs.
In the first three months of 2013, salaries and related expenses were up 2.5% year on year to $1.13bn (£742m), although this increase falls to 2.2% when adjusted for exchange rates and the impact of net acquisitions.
Overall, staff costs accounted for 73.4% of IPG's revenue in the first quarter of 2013. Office and general expenses also rose 2.7% year on year to $453.3m (£2977m).
In March, IPG's board agreed to increase its share repurchase programme from $300m (£197m) to $500m (£328m).
Michael Roth, the chairman and chief executive of IPG, said: "We started the year well and are pleased with solid performance in the quarter. The combination of the results we are sharing today, significant assignments coming on stream in the coming months and our proven ability to closely manage costs positions us to achieve our financial targets for 2013."
IPG has posted first-quarter losses for at least the past 10 years. The first quarter is usually the weakest for the group – the strongest quarter is normally the fourth – because trading is slow while costs remain the same.

Catching up with Keepon and its fancy new Wiimote controls
We met up with Marek Michalowski of BeatBots to find out what's next for Keepon, his world famous dancing robot. Michalowski can control Keepon with a Wiimote to make it bob and dance in response to button presses or a flick of the wrist. Similarly, Keepon can be hooked up to a Wii Fit board, where it can dance in sync with whoever is on the board.
Michalowski is also taking a look at other versatile controllers such as the iPhone. He hasn't dug into it too much just yet, but he did comment that it'd be awesome to see an interactive Keepon app - which would let us all get our hands on it for less than the $30,000 price tag the hand-made 'bot currently sports. BeatBots is in the market for investors and distributors with interests in education and therapy, and a cheaper, consumer-level Keepon is in the works.
Keepon was joined by a clone of itself plugged into another laptop. The second unit was showing off its face-tracking abilities, watching visitors to the booth and streaming video to the laptop screen.

Drawing on ideas and themes from Ian's best-selling book of this title along with his experience of working with young people and educators around the world, this interactive session will explore why world-class is the only standard for education, why the democratisation of knowledge has to be matched with the democratisation of learning and why lunging at the first question that comes into our heads will make us better learners.
Ian Gilbert
Since leaving languages teaching in 1993 – a job he was doing as a stepping stone to his work on motivation with young people and because his then mother-in-law told him he needed a trade and what good was a French degree from Durham if you couldn't mend a leaking tap - Ian has built Independent Thinking into one of the most inspirational and effective educational organisations in the UK and beyond. He has also established himself as a leading educational speaker, practitioner, innovator and an award-winning writer, helping teachers teach so that children can think and learn. From motivation, neuroscience and enterprise skills to creativity, learning and thinking, he has developed tools and ideas that genuinely make a difference to what goes on in the classroom, at the same time directly influencing the approach that many school leaders take to bring out the best in young people and staff alike. The creator of widely used tools such as Thunks ™ and 8Way Thinking, author of several best-selling books including the 'classic' Essential Motivation in the Classroom, The Book of Thunks – winner of the first ever educational writing award from the Society of Authors - and his latest Why Do I Need a Teacher When I've Got Google? and the editor of the hugely popular Independent Thinking Series, Ian has worked tirelessly for nearly two decades to make a difference to the lives of young people in and beyond school.
Diane Brewster
Diane currently works as a staff tutor in computing and technology for the Open University, based in East Grinstead. Prior to this she ran the Creativity Zone at the University of Sussex for four years (part of InQbate; the CETL in Creativity). As part of her work there she took the lead in working with school groups -in conjunction with the AimHigher programme. She has been a member of the JISC teaching and learning practice eperts group for the past seven years. Diane started her teaching career in the late 70's teaching humanities at secondary level, followed by four years cross curriculum teaching in a unit for children not in school and then eight years teaching adults for Birkbeck College (London). She was an early adopter of new technologies, which culminated in being asked to help 'kit out' and support the technology for a start up company in the City. During the six years working for this company she did a career change BSc with the OU. This was followed by an MSc in Human Centred Computer Systems at Sussex and then a DPhil. Her doctoral research looked at the issues of disruption and failure in technology enhanced learning in the light of Diana Laurillard's conversational framework.
