Ol' Black & Blue Eyes
Kate Moss has led a colorful life, to be sure, even by supermodel standards. Once she even took time out from all the drinking and drugging to get treatment for sex addiction. But out of all the men in her life, the one snog that still gives her goosebumps just to think about came courtesy of Frank Sinatra—who was an octogenarian at the time.
The encounter took place at the Chairman of the Board's 80th birthday in fact, in Hollywood in 1995, where 21-year-old Kate was escorted by her then-beau Johnny Depp. Sinatra waited until Kate went off by herself to have a cigarette, then moved in for the kill, instructing his security detail to form a protective cordon so Depp couldn't get near.
"'So we were encircled and he's like, 'How are you doing, little lady?'," Moss recalls in a new interview with the London *Daily Mail*. "And I said, 'Happy birthday, Frank,' and he just lunged for me. He kissed me on the lips, then gave me an unfiltered cigarette. I came off all lightheaded. He was fabulous. There was still a twinkle in his blue eyes. Yeah, major."
And an inspiration to us all.
- — Jared Paul Stern

According to the ITRS roadmap, the number and complexity of application accelerators (video codec, wireless modem) will continue to increase along with the demand for better, faster, cheaper products. To remain competitive, dramatic productivity gains are required. The only way to achieve these gains is by elevating the level of abstraction for design significantly above RTL yet maintaining the Quality of Results (QoR) comparable to manual design. The higher the abstraction level and better the QoR provided by high-level synthesis tools, the bigger the productivity gains will be.
Synphony C Compiler creates application accelerators from untimed C for complex processing hardware that is often required in video, imaging, wireless, security and other domains. Its high level synthesis methodology offers the highest possible level of abstraction for large designs and has been proven to provide huge productivity gains on the largest production designs, not just on small blocks. Synphony delivers QoR competitive to manual design using a unique parallelizing compiler and multi-level hierarchical abstraction. Synphony has several additional unique technologies to drive optimal QoR. Examples include multi-level power optimization, advanced hardware sharing among blocks and intuitive performance feedback. Synphony enables high-level verification at the C level delivering 100x speed-up.
Synphony C Compiler has been adopted and deployed by leading customers in production designs for multiple tapeouts.
Only Synphony C Compiler delivers the best productivity through abstraction and QoR.

Juju The Barrio Funk EP
- Words: Chris Muniz
- Label: Phuturo
Taking it up a notch for the label's tenth release, Juju drops a monstrous double-pack that captures his vision perfectly. From the steady-pumping "Vampiros" to the Fabio-inspired "Far Away," Juju touches on all corners of his sound. "Silencio" takes it down that dark, growling road before the thugged-out remix of Red Army's "Salty Dub" proves to be the perfect knockout punch.

Hi Brad,
We're almost up and running. Don't think we'll make Valentine's Day, but should have a good Easter.

Museum Technicians
Employment for technicians who work at museums, historical sites, and similar institutions will grow about as fast as the average for all occupations through 2022, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Competition for jobs will be keen as there are usually far more candidates than available positions. Freelance technicians may have better odds of securing work. As museums continue to address budget difficulties, many may choose not to retain a large staff of technicians throughout the year, but instead contract with independent exhibition and design companies on a short-term basis when there is the need to install a new exhibit. Private industry and for-profit companies have continued to grow while federally funded nonprofit museums may experience either a reduction of staff or limited hiring of new employees.

(http://www.psychologicalscience.org/journals/pspi/PSPI_9_3.pdf). It's as damming as Coffield.

Unfortunately the nail is from being in the coffin of learning styles. In a webinar yesterday the idea came up several times. The idea is still very much a part of the way people think about learning and that position has been protected - as Coffield pointed out - by the vested interests that make their money selling their useless learning style assessment tools.

I get tired of hearing people talking about foolishness like this during their (and so many "researchers") hunt for a silver bullet. Our culture has been diverted into a stream of thinking that promotes waiting for someone to come up with a one-pill solution. I have been teaching ELLs for almost 12 years now. I have done graduate studies in applied linguistics, vary TESOL programs and am now working on completing my M. Ed. I find it excruciatingly painful to sit in rooms with people who do not understand that there is not one way to do anything. This is not because the various incarnations of education "specialists" have not come up with some wonderful observations.

I think that it is true that all beings learn things in different ways, and that there may be a predominant focus that some people develop when learning. I may be able to digest certain things more proficiently through a particular faculty, but these measurements that are referred to here spit out a relative guide to how much of each type you are (51-Visual; 42-Auditory..etc.) . This is meant to point out to people that we use all of the senses during the education process, but there may be one that is more highly developed due to personal preferences, history and experience.

Anyone who thinks that these tests are telling people to focus on one way to learn is, well, kind of dumb.Gregory J. Demmonshttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2670791335818552606.post-79425725526358700772014-04-25T16:53:56.793+01:002014-04-25T16:53:56.793+01:00A thought provoking article, Steve. You do a reall...A thought provoking article, Steve. You do a really good job of pointing out the arguments against VAK an similar ilk - dare I mention Multiple Intelligences? On the whole, I agree with you. I would, however, like to add a little twist.

VAK is often, at least in my experience, introduced to beginner teachers so they can think about the way in which a stimulus is presented or the way in which they ask children to demonstrate their learning. From here, of course, the intention is for them to evaluate and reflect on the learning that occurred so they can begin to think about context, content, etc. that outline above. In other words, it can be used as a launch pad to reflective practice (if the dangers are avoided).

Can you find a place for it in your heart in that context?

Others have eluded me, there was a conflict going on that I did not understand and the outcome a belief I could never learn these things. Coming across learning styles back in 2000 gave me the language and tools to explore this as a teacher. That is the key to me, I went exploring. As the article says accepting something as true because it is convenient is not the way to develop our understanding of teaching and learning. Neither is dismissing things because there appears to be no evidence. As with me, I wanted to find out what lays behind the art of teaching, I want to get better at it and I want my students to get better at learning too. My journey through learning styles has led me to learning needs, a journey that may have never started has learning styles not given me the tools to explore with. I now use a healthy balance of Barbara's LSA and my own research and experience to promote the concept of meeting Learning Needs and it works wonderfully well. teaching and learning is not a one style fits all and we need to explore this with an open mind. As Fifth Business points out, they allow you to star ta conversation with the learner, one that helps them to understand why as learners they feel the way they do and gives them the tools to help them meet their learning needs.

I was running a workshop to introduce research students to the practical side of blogging (it was advertised as a hands-on workshop). I started with a short talky bit with a few graphical slides as an introduction, then got the participants to have a go at setting up their own blog.

All went very well, apart from one student who informed me very seriously that he was an auditory learner and therefore he wouldn't be able to learn anything from the practical part of the session — could I perhaps carry on talking instead.

In the end there wasn't much I felt I could do for him. Since the practical aspect was central to the workshop, and that required me to be moving round the room answering questions I chose not to restructure on the fly, but it did still make me feel guilty, as though I was intentionally leaving someone out.

It disturbs me greatly that learners may be told about learning styles in a way that encourages them to pigeonhole themselves and use this as an excuse for not learning in particular contexts.Jezhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2670791335818552606.post-62238741890707793842011-11-28T02:03:06.079Z2011-11-28T02:03:06.079ZAh now, you're giving away secrets.

Even when I take them, I find on any given day, my responses would be different than on another day. Hum, then, how valid are these tools. Also, the point about self-fulfilling prophecy has some meat to it. Still, as others stated, teachers should vary their methodologies, for no other reasons than we all like some variety amid some consistency and predictability. The same old can get mundane quickly. Those teachers who incorporate a variety of strategies are more likely to be attuned to the variety of learners in their classrooms and the students' needs at the moment.Judyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2670791335818552606.post-26039388538879012012011-11-27T15:18:48.893Z2011-11-27T15:18:48.893ZThis comment has been removed by the author.Lisa Cooleyhttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2670791335818552606.post-70450920749766626892011-11-25T20:43:37.341Z2011-11-25T20:43:37.341ZI am a newbie teacher, and on my first placement I...I am a newbie teacher, and on my first placement I was told that I needed to cater for different learning styles more in my planning.

1. Professors are rarely trained in how to teach...or how students learn through different learning styles and so universities and colleges need to stress these differences.

2. Businesses rarely know what learning styles their people prefer, so training is sometimes a complete waste. Understanding the student is important, however, understanding the employee is equally as important. Education is farther along the road than Business when it pertains to this topic, so I believe it is necessary for businesses to stress these differences. Education understands the differences and therefore should continue along the continuum to analyze the variations and blending of learning styles as they teach content.

"Never mind, me hearty! The smell reminds me of the sea!"
- — Thomas and Salty

|Next episode
Fish is the nineteenth episode of the eighth season.
The Fat Controller sends Thomas to help Arthur at the Fishing Village as the fishermen have caught a huge catch of fish. When Thomas arrives, he sees a very long line of trucks waiting for him. Arthur tells him that, due to the rough track-work on the route to Brendam, he must take five trucks at a time and go slowly and carefully. So Arthur buffers up and takes five trucks, but Thomas prefers to get the smelly job over and done with and buffers up to all of the trucks in front of him.
However, the trucks take full advantage of the rough track-work and make fish fly into Thomas' face. When climbing up Gordon's Hill, the trucks are very heavy and on the way down, they pull Thomas, making him go way too fast. Unfortunately, Salty is at the bottom of the hill waiting for a signal. The trucks crash into Salty, sending fish everywhere. Thomas apologises to Salty, but Salty does not mind; the smell of fish reminds him of the sea.
Soon Harvey arrives to clear up the mess and the Fat Controller scolds Thomas for neglecting Arthur's advice. Once the mess is cleared up, Thomas takes five trucks and finds it easier. After the first batch of five fish trucks, Thomas collects another five, and then the final three, arriving at Brendam just in time. The Fat Controller praises Thomas for a good job well done, especially as he knows that Thomas does not like fish.
Thomas goes to the washdown where Arthur and Salty are being cleaned and they all agree that being cleaned is the best part of the day.
- Thomas
- Arthur
- Salty
- Troublesome Trucks
- Sir Topham Hatt
- Gordon (does not speak)
- Harvey (does not speak)
- Henry (cameo)
- Cranky (cameo)
- Slow motion is used when some of the fish first splatter onto Thomas.
- When the front truck sees Salty in the distance, he is wearing Bulstrode's shocked face mask, but just before it crashes into Salty, he is wearing Toad's eyes-closed face mask.
- When the fish fly into Thomas, he is in his large scale form.
- Going by production order, this is the third episode of the eighth season.
- A wire is visible under Thomas when is he pushing trucks at the fishing village.
- When Thomas races through the countryside, his trucks gain faces.
- Michael Brandon refers to the freight cars as "troublesome trucks" in one scene.
- When the trucks crashed, only two fish flew onto Salty, but in the next scene there are more than two fish on him.
- The fish are transported in an extremely unhygienic way. They should have been in vans.
- Brakevans should have been added to Thomas and Arthur's trains. Thomas' accident would probably not have happened if his train had one.
- In some close-ups of Thomas, he does not appear to be pushing any trucks.
- Arthur has Murdoch's whistle sound.
- Arthur is not coupled to his train.
- Sir Topham Hatt tells Thomas he has to be "more safe", but "safer" is the proper term.
- Thomas is already messy before the fish fly onto him.
- Due to Toad's and Bulstrode's faces being used on the same truck, it's face changes size and the nose changes. When they return to the docks, it's face has disappeared completely.
- Thomas is not seen being coupled to his first train.
- Thomas' trucks lose their faces when they reach Brendam Docks.

Nov 14, 2012If you're a Halo fan, you've probably already pre-ordered and purchased this game and thankfully the game more than lived up to its hype. Even if you have never played a Halo game before, it's still one of the best first person shooters on any console.
Nov 27, 2012This is THE best Halo game yet, and although the campaign in short, there's an abundance of content to keep Halo 4 in your disc tray.
Nov 1, 2012The narrative that is put forth is simply amazing as it provides a new beginning with the Reclaimer Saga and the addition of the new Spartan Ops mode is simply brilliant as it adds even more story to an already great tale. Sure, some may complain the familiarity of the gameplay is a bad thing, but in the end, even though you do get a recognizable feeling when playing, the overall experience that Halo 4 provides is very enjoyable and one that you should not miss.
Nov 1, 2012It's a formidable return to form for Master Chief. This gorgeous game offers thrills and challenges from start to finish, and provides a much more personal story for our hero than what we've seen before.
Nov 1, 2012343's attempts at endowing this carefully constructed husk of a protagonist with psychological depth are predictably timid.
Nov 1, 2012Instead of innovating, 343 has played it safe in just about every aspect. Halo 4 competes favorably with Halo: Reach, but it doesn't exceed Bungie's final installment.
Nov 4, 2012A shiny old dog without any new tricks. I got more out of the Halo 1 remake, which at least had the appeal of nostalgia. Playing through an updated version of the original Halo was at times tired or tedious. But it was also a reminder of the raw genius that launched the series. There is none of that in Halo 4, which is a drawn-out retread without any fresh perspective or energy, and furthermore missing a lot of what I need to pull me through a Halo game. Halo 4 demonstrates that if there's one thing worse than more of the same, it's less of the same.

Now, onto the game, when 343i took over the HaloLet me start by saying ignore the user score, it is mostly from butthurt CoD/PS3 fanboys. Now, onto the game, when 343i took over the Halo franchise I expected more of the same but what I got was something much better, see unlike Bungie before them 343 actually developed the Master Chief and Cortana something that was missing from the original trilogy and delivered one hell of a story with an awesome villain who kind of reminded me of Darth Vader unmasked. Now for the visuals, the character and gun models may not look as great as something like Crysis 2 but the backgrounds are truly unmatched by any game out there and will have you staring in wonderment with each new outdoor level. The sound is much improved from Reach making guns specifically from the UNSC sound more powerful and Forerunner/Covenant sound very unusual as alien weaponry should. Fortunately, Firefight was replaced for something more meaningful which is Spartan Ops that actually give more to the story and you even get a great CGI episode which each entry. Lastly, the multiplayer, there are a few unbalances specifically with the DMR but overall it's a fair game and the maps are fantastic unlike Reach where it looks like a Hobo got a hold of forge and sold maps to Bungie, now with Halo 4 the maps actually feel like time went into them, like something you would of expected from Halo 2 or 3. Overall best shooter I've played in a long time and I think you would love it.… Expand
Nov 7, 2012Halo 4 is a game changer, and every games developer in the world should fear it for having raised the bar so very, very high.
The campaignHalo 4 is a game changer, and every games developer in the world should fear it for having raised the bar so very, very high.
The campaign was a little short with just 8 missions, but they're all hard to fault. My only gripe otherwise is that the objectives did get a bit samey, but this didn't matter because the fights certainly didn't. The AI is fantastic and the art direction is immersive, Halo 4 has ridiculous replay value. To add to that of course there's Spartan Ops, which taken on its own from what 343i have promised makes the game easily worth the price tag. In fact overall the storyline will be incredibly long.
The graphics as everyone (credible) has said are in a league of their own for console gaming; especially compared to other 360 titles. This is great simply because you can appreciate the backdrops and environments of Requiem in even more glory - and some other probably-even-more-cool places too. The other technical aspect to the game, the sound, is equally brilliant. The sound effects are second to none and the music score as you might expect is great.
Being a Halo game you can't ignore the multiplayer. As a serious Halo player since CE, and XBL user since H2 days, I know the games well and can give a reasonably informed comparison. In short, I love it. One could gripe that a couple of things feel taken from CoD, such as loadouts and instant respawn, and of course the death cam, but this still feels like Halo. It's pretty much the multiplayer Bungie would have tried to go for as a sequel to H3 if they'd been bothered, but of course by that point they weren't and us fans were left with the festering heap of garbage that was Reach multiplayer - until it was slightly redeemed by a title update done by 343i, no less. Anyway the multiplayer is great and accounts for every type of player - those who like to have fun and those who like to compete. The matchmaking system itself is crazily intuitive and beautifully polished, it just feels...finished.
I don't really have a bad thing to say about this game yet. It well and truly deserves to go down as the best FPS on the Xbox 360, if not 'new generation' consoles. What I don't like to see is a bunch of people bashing it cos they don't like sci-fi, or bought a PS3 instead of an Xbox. That's not right and it's putting the review system off. Ignore the user score, as you can see everyone who actually owns this game has said how amazing it is and rated highly. Somehow there's almost 400 negative reviews, but every single one of them appears to be from someone who doesn't own Halo 4 - boy will they eat their words when they play it.… Expand

Feb 26, 2014343 Industries were given the privilege to continue Bungie's hit series Halo right from where they left off of. The hype and expectations for343 Industries were given the privilege to continue Bungie's hit series Halo right from where they left off of. The hype and expectations for the next edition to the saga were extremely high so there was little room for error.
And little error there was...
The game opens with an extremely well crafted cut scene. It felt like I was watching a film and at some scenes it was hard to tell whether the characters were programed or living actors. Unlike games like Sonic 06 the rest of the game looks great too. We are not just greeted by something beautiful, the visuals last and last in true cinematic fashion.
Along with the graphics the environment and world design is artistic.There is a sense of atmosphere you get while playing Halo 4. There is just the right balance between futuristic areas and natural which makes you remember that Halo takes place in the future of this universe and not in some completely new and unrecognizable universe, since there is so much relatable to Earth and our knowledge on other planets.
The visuals and world design are complemented by the audio. From the Dramatic theme to the weapon sound effects this game sounds great. Great isn't one of my best words to describe something either. While Halo 4's audio is up there with some of my other top sounding games, it certainly can match with some of the Masterpieces like Half-Life 2, Legend of Zelda: Majora's mask and even Halo Combat Evolved for the original Xbox and PC. This is only a small fraction of the reason why I didn't give it a 10 out of 10.
Most people complain that the gameplay in the Halo series is very repetitive and get generic as the series progresses. Having played through almost all of the Halo series I haven't really felt that there is any major repetivity. The concept has been the same throughout the series and there haven't been any minor evolutions in Gameplay but the game still feel fresh. 343 managed to keep the game new without ruining any game mechanics. It is mainly to do with the Level Design and World Design which I have already praised. There is a distinct feel to each halo game and in Halo 4 the levels are generally spread out and full of places to explore once you get past the open stage. While most area's are new and done in 343's unique styles in environment there are still one or two areas that I can relate to previous Halo titles.
Halo 4's story is also a big role in creating this almost perfect masterpiece. It is a shame that most games these days, particularly FPS's, don't have stories you can get into. Most are multiplayer based and the focus on the actual game appears minimal. Halo 4 is one of the very few games that I can get into story wise. I didn't play the campaign just to get the achievements, I played it because it is good!
The true reason for me to drop a mark is because of a certain enemy. That being the Knights. While I am a person who likes difficult games like CastleVania, Megaman that the more recent Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures but while playing in Heroic or Legendary the Knights are very cheap. In the games I just mentioned you are only to blame when messing up. The other enemies are like that in Halo as well and clearing a room of elites in legendary is very rewarding.
The Knights are very over powered and they will only stress the player out. to my knowledge they have the same health and strength as the Elites yet they come with the assistance of bots that'll heal them besides they can heal themselves just like you and Elites can. Instead of running away from you they can teleport and by the time you find them they have or are beginning to recharge. This really becomes when there are more than one Knight around. I remember being stuck for a long time on this certain part of the third mission of the game. I have to say that part and other Knight encounters are rated high up in some of the hardest parts across the whole series and unfortunately the difficult was cheap and you never felt that it was your fault and you resort to blaming the game.
The Knight is the concept to make me frown while playing this game. There are some other minor floors including some glitches but most of them have patched the only other flaw worth mentioning is the OP Mantis' but they don't bother me much at all. This leaves me to only drop one mark from perfection. 343 did an great job continuing the series. Though it may not be as good as Combat Evolved and Halo 2 I highly recommend this and I am eager to play Halo 5 when it is released.… Expand

Mar 14, 2014This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. (Minimal spoilers)
I honestly can't give this game more than a 6 for the simple reason that throughout the entire playthrough, I couldn't help but feel bored and disinterested in the characters, the plot, the chief and Cortana, or the action. Please note, this is a review of the single-player campaign only.
I've always loved the Halo series, in its prime the game was an incredible showing of what shooters could be. A combination of fun, semi-open field exploration with vehicles of all sizes, battling against untold odds. Halo Reach was a decent addition to a great series, adding important backstory to the Chief's grand adventure. Halo 4, on the other hand, adds little to the mythos of the chief, trying instead to forge a 2-dimensional relationship between the him and the AI Cortana.
The gameplay felt tedius at times, where I'd often think to myself 'oh great, yet another section of the game that I don't want to complete', and I'd force myself through it because I'm that kind of gamer. That is, hopeful, wishing for this game to pick up the pace and throw some interesting combat at me. Instead, it was rehash after rehash, with repetitive enemy battles throughout. They basically introduce the principle enemies at you near the beginning of the game, and they recycle the same ones over and over and over again.
As for the story, I still don't know what the hell happened. I'm no slouch when it comes to picking up on complex philosophical implications, but this story was way over my head. Who was the principle enemy? Why do I care? What's his motive for destroying humanity if humanity poses little to no threat to the galaxy? Why does human technology integrate so easily into theirs? This is basically how it goes: Chief wakes up from slumber, **** going down, somehow through the expanse of space he meets up with a human ship, they run into a giant mechanical planet thing, chief **** **** up, casualties of war happen, the chief blows a nuke and doesn't die, humanity wins and the chief loses.
The one part of the game that kept me engaged was the visuals. I have to hand it to 343, they made a handsome looking game. The fidelity was sharp and the colors bright and vibrant. The enemies were well designed and the worlds felt real. While running through space stations you felt like you were there. The sound design was also top notch, with an excellent musical track to carry through the otherwise sleepy and predictable storyline.
I bought it used for $15 on amazon. Personally the game didn't resonate with me, but it was worth what I'd paid for it. I don't think I would recommend this game to my friends, so I wouldn't recommend it to you. If you don't mind the lack of a story and gameplay that has regressed from its prior glory in order to play as the chief again, go for it. If you care about progress in gaming, leave this one on the rack.… Expand
Dec 3, 2014It would go faster to just write the positive aspects of this game because that list is very short. Generally good visuals, a lot of weaponsIt would go faster to just write the positive aspects of this game because that list is very short. Generally good visuals, a lot of weapons to choose from, some new and fresh enemies. That's pretty much all that i can think of as positive.
This game feels so cheap and just poorly made especially if you have in mind the budget they've had for making this game, they had the chance to make a splendid sequel which in my opinion is something they failed very very bad at. There are so many aspects which are full of flaws. Items and weapons disappear out of nowhere, once you drop a weapon or if a enemy drop a weapon it disappear if you turn your back away, it even happens while it's on screen. There is no depth in the story and it kind of doesn't feel like halo at all. The game is very repetitive and also very short, sometimes it feels like they've used the same maps but just rearranged some things. In Spartan Ops is the same maps but just playing them in reverse.
The respawn system in Spartan Ops is also crap, you literally respawn where you die which puts you in a spawn kill loop where you are surrounded with knights that simply kill you once you respawn and i just laughed at how poorly made this game is. You can't hijack banshees which i tried on several missions which also adds up on the negatives.
When you buy the game, the only thing that is available is the campaign. Spartan Ops and all other things in Halo 4 requires Gold membership which is **** So technically when you buy the game you only get to play the short campaign and if you wanna play more you have to pay monthly to do so. I looked forward to Halo 4 and looked upon 343 industries as a new chapter who had the possibility to fix all the bad stuff with the previous games like the bad AI for instance, but instead they kept all the bad stuff and added some more just for the fun of it.
I feel awkward on behalf of 343 industries who, with all the resources, people and finances to release such a disaster. I have been a fan of halo series and was really hoping for improvement but this is the end of the line for me. I'm not buying any other Halo games in the future, there are SO many better games to spend your money on which won't make you feel robbed.… Expand

Birds by name
Conservation status: Red
The turtle dove is a dainty dove, smaller and darker than the collared dove and slightly larger than a blackbird. Its upperparts are distinctively mottled with chestnut and black and its black tail has a white edge.The gentle purr of the turtle dove is an evocative sound of summer, but has become increasingly rare following rapid and sustained population declines. One cause of the decline is thought to be lack of seed and grain as food during the breeding season, resulting in a much shorter breeder season with fewer nesting attempts. The species is now included on the Red List of conservation concern.
Streptopelia turtur
Pigeons and doves (Columbidae)
It is mainly a bird of southern and eastern England, although it does reach as far as Wales. Best looked for in woodland edges, hedgerows and open land with scattered bushes.
Arrives in late April and May, leaving again between July and September.
* UK breeding is the number of pairs breeding annually. UK wintering is the number of individuals present from October to March. UK passage is the number of individuals passing through on migration in spring and/or autumn.

The Journal Sentinel sports staff brings Milwaukee Bucks fans the latest news, notes and analysis
Monroe helps Pistons hand Bucks first loss under Boylan
Greg Monroe dominated the paint in the second half, leading the Detroit Pistons to a 103-87 victory over the Bucks on Friday night at the BMO Harris Bradley Center.
Bucks coach Jim Boylan lost for the first time since taking over for Scott Skiles on Tuesday, falling to a 2-1 record. And the Bucks lost for the second time in as many meetings against the division-rival Pistons.
Monroe finished with 26 points and 11 rebounds, and he led the charge as Detroit (14-23) outscored the Bucks in the third quarter, 33-11.
Point guard Brandon Knight added 20 points and five assists for the Pistons.
Brandon Jennings and Beno Udrih had 15 points apiece for the Bucks (18-17) and Monta Ellis had 13 points while playing just 27 minutes.
Boylan gave some playing time to Drew Gooden and Samuel Dalembert in the second half after the Bucks fell behind.
Gooden finished with eight points and Dalembert had six points and seven rebounds.
The Bucks were 1 for 16 from three-point range and shot just 39.6% overall (36 of 91).
Detroit shot 43.3% overall (39 of 90) and outrebounded Milwaukee, 51-48.

Let's get a good start. No more fighting from behind.
Here's a chance to scratch your head ...
A Marques Daniels appearance at the 2 guard (something new)
Jennings and Ellis both on the bench a the same time (something new)
Bench scoring in 1st quarter, 1 free throw (something new)Hide replies
I've had it with this new coach and his crazy lineups!
Two questions we have to ask before the start if the third quarter ...
1) Is Boylan going to continue with that 11 man rotation?
2) How many $1 hot days has Wingy Jr consumed during that first half?Hide replies
no dawgs for wingy jR................Down with the flu.........had to promise a better game with better seats.
I think he's faking the illness. It doesn't take a sophisticated fan to turn down bad tickets and a couple of wieners for an upgrade in teams and seats.
Oh sure I tune in at the start of the 3rd quarter and this. This is where Boylan can earn his check.Hide replies
Boylan will earn it allright! Maybe he can get Jennings 15 shots in the 4th QTR!
Skiles has damaged these guys so badly, they still can't play right.
The Bucks play maybe their worst 3rd quarter (among many) and [BNK]
still blames the departed Scott Skiles.
Nobody to blame but themselves. It defies all logic. Of course when you have limited offensive option you end up paying..
Krakkens still blaming Skiles! LOL Classic.
i think you guys missed Krakkens subtle satire/irony there?
Ya, Walter. sarcasm 101 I believe. Not much to do except joke about this outing.
Cancer patient for the three!Hide replies
I believe he hit more than the entire Bucks team, @ least it seemed that way?
Bring back Skiles! This team needs discipline.
Boylan's input getting Bucks hammered by one of the worst teams in the NBA! Maybe Jennings will find his shot if he can just keep shooting and play no defense.Hide replies
Where is the beef?
This is totally understandable losing 2 games in a row to the Pistons. They ARE one of the top 5 teams in the central divison!
Shoot first undersized point guard is the basic failed starting point.
Getting rid of Skiles was part 1 accomplished and although Boylan seems like a nice fella I do not see him as the man. I would like someone in here who can develop a low post game with this team. Another thing we need a trade or two. MONTE/BJ as I have stated have no chance at success. I have advocated trading Ellis and I also would not be adverse to getting rid of BJ. Yes he can be flashy and streaky, but in the end he is like AI and is simply more interested in scoring than passing. Also Harris cannot develop on the pine and having Gooden and a glutton at other positions is only serving us to compete for a 7 or 8 seed. We need to make some changes and MR.HAMMOND needs to get on the phone ASAP....Hide replies
We need to trade them all, cuz Skiles has ruined everyone! Boylan can't win if they all hate basketball
