U.Va.-affiliated ventures HemoSonics LLC, PocketSonics Inc. and Tau Therapeutics LLC and engineering professor Eric Loth were awarded a total of more than $500,000 from the Commonwealth Research Commercialization Fund, administered by the state's Center for Innovative Technology, in its second round of funding.
Under the fund's Commercialization Program, Tau Therapeutics will receive $200,000 to advance its novel cancer therapy, mibefradil; HemoSonics will receive $100,000 to support the development of its in vitro diagnostic device for assessing abnormal bleeding and clotting; and PocketSonics will receive approximately $54,000 to improve the interconnect design of the SonicWindow, a pocket-sized medical ultrasound device that images vascular structures beneath the skin.
Loth, associate chair of aerospace engineering and professor of mechanical and aerospace engineering in the School of Engineering and Applied Science, will receive $150,000 under the fund's general Matching Funds Program. Providing a match to National Science Foundation funding, the award will fund the development and commercialization of an innovative coating that can be used to protect structural building materials from the elements.
The fund awarded a total of $3.1 million to 20 organizations throughout the commonwealth in its 2012 cycle, following its initial distribution of $3.6 million in fall 2011.

Dynamic websites certainly have their place on the internet, but you may find the enhanced security, performance and ease of hosting a static site to be just what you need. So here's the big list of static site generators (the sequel to Timo's original "32 static website generators for your site, blog or wiki") to get you started, sorted by language/platform.
Note: Writing a comprehensive list of static site generators would be nearly impossible (the quantity is astounding), and not all that useful, so the following list only contains generators that are actively being maintained and/or have a decent website. If you have anything to add to the list, just let us know via Twitter @iwantmyname.

In his remarks, Muir said it was rare to have someone so busy "give as much to the news division as Anne does," recalling her reaction to a dangerous situation he and his crew were in while covering the 2011 Arab Spring protests in Egypt. Read more

While some scientists search desperately for a new fuel to use in cars and power plants that will free us from dependence on Middle Eastern oil while producing fewer emissions, other researchers are trying to find ways to use a fuel we have PLENTY of right here at home: coal.
More than half of the electricity produced in the United States comes from coal, but it bring pollution with it. Our demand for electricity expected to double by 2050?can "dirty" coal be used cleanly?
It may be possible if gasification is used. Researcher George Muntean says, "Coal gasification offers one of the most versatile and clean ways to convert coal into electricity, hydrogen and other valuable energy products." Rather than burning coal directly, gasification breaks down coal into its basic chemical constituents using high temperature and pressure. Because of this, carbon dioxide can be captured from a gas stream far more easily than from the smokestacks of a conventional coal plant.
"If we plan to use our domestic supply of coal to produce energy, and do so in a way that does not intensify atmospheric CO2 concentrations, gasification is critical," Muntean says.
We could also export coal for gassification to heavy-polluters like China, which would help our economy. Researcher S.K. Sundaram says, "Advances in gasification will help us meet demand for clean energy worldwide. Science and technology are paving the way for cleaner coal for future generations."

An emperor (1556-1605) of Hindustan, the third of the Mogul Dynasty. Akbar was born in Umarkot, Sind (now in Pakistan) in 1542. At the age of 14, he succeeded his father to the throne. His name was Jalul-ud-Din Muhammed, but he became known as "Akbar" (The Great) due to his able administration and strong leadership. Under his rule, Punjab, Rajput, Gujarat, Bengal, Kashmir, and Sind were conquered, annexed or admitted to his empire. He died at Agra in 1605.
(SP-599: dp. 125; 1. 72'6"; b. 11'6"; dr. 3'4"; s. 22 k.; cpl. 11; a. 2 mg.)
Akbar (SP-599)—a wooden motor patrol boat built in 1915 at Camden, N.J., by the Mathis Yacht Building Co.—was purchased by the state of Maine from her owner, George W. C. Drexel, Philadelphia, Pa.; transferred under a loan by the state of Maine to the section commander at Bath, Maine; purchased by the Navy on 17 May 1917; and placed in commission on 31 May 1917, Quartermaster 1st Class Robert A. Webster in charge.
Following her commissioning, the vessel was assigned to the 1st Naval District. Akbar carried out harbor patrol duty in the Rockland, Maine, section until May 1918 when she was shifted to the Portland, Maine, section. The former yacht served on patrol duty in that area through the end of World War I in November 1918.
Akbar was decommissioned on 17 January 1919. Her name was struck from the Navy list on 2 October 1919, and she was sold on 2 January 1920 to F. Chester Everett, Maiden, Mass

Yet they found that abnormalities in dopaminergic function in the prefrontal cortex persisted well into adulthood—long after the transgene had been turned off. This study—and others soon to be published regarding cocaine distribution to the fetus from maternal use—raises the possibility of lifelong structural and functional effects on brain neurocircuitry as a result of fetal exposure to drugs of abuse.

As the Desperate Housewives finale looms just a couple of days away, speculation about the cast's personal relationships continues to spread. Despite rumors that Teri Hatcher was on the outs with the rest of the original stars, Eva Longoria sets the record straight with David Letterman.
"We all get along," the Longoria, 37, said on Wednesday night's episode of The Late Show with David Letterman. "I know. Everybody says that [we don't]."
One reason Hatcher, 47, has been publicly pitted against the rest of the ensemble is that Longoria, Marcia Cross, 50, Felicity Huffman, 49, and Vanessa Williams, 49, all chipped in to present every member of the ABC show's crew with a farewell gift, and Hatcher's name was conspicuously absent from the card.
"We gave the crew carry-on luggage that said, 'Take us with you in all of your journeys,'" Longoria explained.
And when Letterman asked, "Didn't one of you get fired?" Longoria just laughed.
"Yes! I forgot about... Nicollette Sheridan. She didn't get fired. She just passed away. I got along with her. Nicollette was fun. She was a fun chick."
Apparently still hopeful he could get Longoria to share about some behind-the-scenes cattiness, Letterman suggested the cast must have been very competitive about camera time.
"Not really," Longoria said. "It's acting! It's not football."
The two-hour series finale of Desperate Housewives airs Sunday at 8 p.m. EST on ABC.


text: Last week, Eurogroup finance ministers in their wisdom decided that there would be no debt relief or restructuring for Greece until the end of the summer. Evidently they wish to avoid exciting voters in the European Parliament elections in May. This is regrettable, since it only puts off the inevitable and forces the Troika to use smoke and mirrors to fill the government's funding gap.

PUSH-CR Finds Home for First Family
CEDAR RAPIDS, IA (CBS2/FOX28) At the beginning of the week, RJ Rampot, Alisha Hinkel and their daughter were without a home. To get by they needed a helping hand.
"Mainly my parents, said Rampot. Worked some stuff out."
But even that help came after bouncing around from one place to another. This week, Alisha got a call from her Department of Human Services worker saying her family would soon have a place to call their own.
"I couldn't believe it at first. He told me over the phone and it was kind of hard telling him because it's like, "No, it can't be us, said Hinkel.
Except it was. Her family was eligible for PUSH-CR, a program that helps at risk families with young children find housing they can afford. Four Oaks President Anne Gruenewald says signing on the dotted line is just the beginning.
"If you can start families not only in housing but make sure that they've got all of the supports necessary, they're able to stabilize faster, said Gruenewald.
The idea is if families with young children have a place to consistently call home, those children are more likely to stay safe.
"Kids need stability and structure and they need the constancy of the people, in other words, their parents, living with them, said Gruenewald.
Gruenewald says that gives the kids a good chance to be successful in the future. But RJ and Alisha are just the first to benefit from the program. Gruenewald says over the next three years, 124 other families will also have places to call home.
"These are families that if this kind of program wasn't available, would continue to probably be homeless and their children might not be in a position to grow up with their parents, said Gruenewald.
For this couple, it didnt seem real.
"So now that we actually have keys to the house, it's nice. It's a for sure thing, said Hinkel.

Parent who don't want to medicate their children might just be able to give them more sun exposure to make them drowsy; more sleep reduces the symptoms of ADHD.
by Linda Mintle -
ADHD is a legitimate diagnosis based on underlying neurological conditions. It is a brain-based biological disorder that can be detected by brain scans and imaging. Chemical differences are found in the ADHD brain when compared to non ADHD children. Furthermore, current evidence suggest that ADHD is genetic.
In terms of the rising numbers of ADHD children, positives explanations include better awareness of the condition and better access to care. Decades ago, we did not do a good job of identifying children with this disorder. Now, more children are benefiting from early detection and treatment.
With the growing concern about overmedicating children on the minds of so many, preschoolers, who are correctly diagnosed do need intervention.
So what is being done to provide medication alternatives?
Perhaps a promising area to explore is solar intensity as it relates to ADHD. Sleep specialists tell us that children with ADHD often have sleep-onset insomnia and a delayed circadian phase. So a group of researchers looked at the relationship between environmental light exposure and ADHD prevalence. What they found was that higher solar intensity was correlated with lower ADHD prevalence. Exposing children to intense sunlight during the day and reduced light exposure at night may reduce some ADHD symptoms and act as a protective factor.[1]

I stared at the Assignments page, and it stared back at me.
"Has your writing changed this year?"
"Has your attitude toward writing changed?"
"Do you use different strategies now than you did in September?"
To just end this post right now is tempting. But of course, the last few questions can't be answered with a "No". Then again, "No" isn't exactly all there is to say, so—ahem—allow me to start again.
I stared at the Assignments page, scrolled down the page, clicked Shimmona (40), Older Entries and read. And read. And read. And hallelujah, it was there. Minuscule but existent, there are actually differences between my first post (Who Will I Be?) and—excluding the last minute half-assed journal entries I wrote—my latest post (Names and Faces Personal Response).
What are these differences? That's one right there. I used that question to help make things flow better. Whether or not it was successful being another matter, I cringe at how I used to just suddenly jump to a new topic in a new paragraph without making smooth transitions between the finished paragraph and the next.
Another difference is probably my use of dashes. I started using them, after seeing them in the novels I liked. But of course, I foolishly stuck them where commas were supposed to be. Looks pretty stupid, thinking back. Now? Though I don't know if I'm using them right, they're there for interrupting my own thoughts or to replace the brackets that I prefer not to use.
And while the informal-ish feel of my writing will always be there, like the decrease in population of wild pandas, the length of my posts are growing shorter. But hey, they say it's quality over quantity, right? It's not just an excuse to slack off, it's the content that counts…
I guess those little differences aren't so minuscule after all, huh?
Yeah well, writing on a blog was a first for me. Heck, before September I didn't even know what a blog was. At first writing on here was just a nuisance. It was either, "ARGH, I have to do this, I need to do that" or "'Cause MR. MACKNIGHT said so". Nowadays writing on here is for the sole purpose—the main one, anyway—of writing something worth reading, something fun, helpful or interesting. Even if it isn't, I can at least say, "I tried."
As for my strengths and weaknesses?
I dunno, you tell me.

They say blondes have more fun, but judging by a recent poll conducted by SuicideGirls the old adage doesn't ring true anymore.
When asked to state their hair color preference, our Facebook friends and Twitter followers voted fairly evenly between brunettes (27%), redheads (27%) and whatever's clever (26%). However blondes attracted a mere 6% of votes, with the remaining 14% of those who participated showing favor to crazy bright colors. You may want to think twice before reaching for the bleach!

Factors Contributing to Obesity: Let's Eat Out
Over the past several decades, Americans have come to love eating out. One U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) food survey found that our share of total calories consumed away from home in the U.S. rose from 18 percent in the late 1970s to 32 percent by the mid-1990s. Similarly, the share of our total food budgets spent on food eaten away from home rose from 34 percent in 1974 to about 50 percent in 2004.
You are more likely to eat high-calorie, energy-dense and nutritionally poor foods at restaurants.
The two largest segments of the away-from-home food market are full-service restaurants and fast-food outlets.42 Rapid growth in both categories has prompted Americans to take advantage of the affordability and convenience they offer. As one study puts it, Americans are experiencing "unprecedented exposure to energy-dense, heavily advertised, inexpensive and highly accessible foods."43
Dining out affects food consumption. You are more likely to eat high-calorie, energy-dense and nutritionally poor foods at restaurants. Consumption of sodium, sugar, total fat and saturated fat all increase when eating away from home, while intake of fiber, calcium, magnesium and other important nutrients falls.
A recent study found that dinner patrons eat 56 percent more when served larger portions of high-energy-density foods than when served foods lower in energy density. This research also showed that individuals who are served large portions and intend to compensate by reducing their food consumption at other meals have a difficult time doing so. Consequently, the eating-out trend has contributed to the obesity crisis. Dining out can be directly associated with increased BMI.44

Mayor Bloomberg on Monday announced new legislation banning the display of tobacco products in nearly all retailers, new minimum packaging requirements and stiffen cigarette tax-enforcement measures. Collectively, the bills are aimed at reducing the city's youth smoking figures and curbing the sale of smuggled cigarettes.
"The laws would protect New Yorkers, especially younger New Yorkers," Bloomberg said at a press conference in Jamaica's Queens Hospital Center.
The administration has been keen to play up the health benefits of Bloomberg's tenure in office as part of larger efforts to burnish his legacy. Recent studies have found the life expectancy of the average New Yorker has increased by two years since he took office, which the mayor repeatedly referenced during the press conference. He also said smoking among adults has dropped 31 percent since 2002.
Bloomberg said the push to take cigarettes out of sight came after the city experienced a leveling off of earlier reductions in youth smoking. The youth smoking rate has remained at a level 8.5 percent since 2007, according to city Health Commissioner Dr. Thomas Farley.
"Young people are targets of marketing and the availability of cigarettes and this legislation will help prevent another generation from the ill health and shorter life expectancy that comes with smoking," Bloomberg said, adding "Such displays suggest that smoking is a normal activity. It is not a normal activity."
The ban on displaying cigarettes, called the "Tobacco Product Display Restriction," exempts specialty tobacco stores from the no-display requirement. It does not put curbs on cigarette advertising in stores. The law comes a week after a judge struck down the mayor's attempt to ban the sale of sodas in containers over 16 ounces at certain food retailers.
Retailers did not meet the proposed law with open arms though, lambasting the regulation as another swipe at their bottom line.
"We need to make a living, and Bloomberg's trying to stop us from doing that by saying how we can and can't sell our tobacco," said Michael Aziz of the Three Star Deli in Jamaica. "If he's going to eliminate things, he should help people out first."
Councilman Dan Halloran (R-Whitestone) was among the mayor's more vocal critics during that "soda ban" fight, and sees the tobacco product display restriction in much the same light.
"I don't understand. The product is legal," he said. "This is my worry about all of these things he's doing. Slowly but steadily we're eroding liberty."
The city's regulations on tobacco displays and sales have already been modified several times, Halloran added, including height and placement restrictions.
Councilman Jim Gennaro (D-Fresh Meadows) welcomed the bills, saying all the city's recent gains in eco-friendly legislation were rendered moot by anyone who smokes.
"If you pick up smoking, you won't get that benefit," he said, adding cigarettes could leave you "dead as Julius Caesar."
Bloomberg has faced pillorying in the press and in City Hall for flagrant nanny state-ism, at the expense of taxpayers.
"People say, 'You're doing these things to collect money.' No, we're doing this to save lives," Bloomberg said.
The second law targets smuggled and untaxed cigarettes by increasing the fines levied by the city's Department of Finance. Should the bill pass, repeat offenders would face the prospect of being shuttered.
"Forty-six percent of more than 1,900 inspected cigarette retailers were found to be selling unstamped or untaxed product over the past 18 months by the Office of the Sheriff — a staggering number that puts law-abiding businesses at an incredible disadvantage," said DOF Commissioner David Frankel.
The bill would also: prohibit retailers from redeeming manufacturer's coupons; set a $10.50 price minimum for a pack of little cigars and require cheap cigars and cigarillos be sold in packages of at least four.
Anti-smoking activists hailed the legislation as further proof the city is headed in the right direction.
"This is a great first step," said Yvette Buckner-Jackson, borough manager for Queens Smoke Free Partnership. "It's bold and it's exciting."
Council Speaker Christine Quinn (D-Manhattan) supports the aim of the bills, published reports said, but gave no indication of the bills' chances of reaching the floor.

The death of one of our greatest actors today was avoidable. Hoffman's untimely death can be attributed as much to U.S. punitive practices as to his failed battle with addiction. Found on the bathroom floor with a needle in his arm and surrounded by dozens of heroin bags, the actor's death is the latest of a growing number of fatalities of drug users from overdoses of heroin.
According to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), heroin seizures in New York state are up 67 percent over the last four years. And the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) reports that 17,000 deaths a year are attributed to heroin use. Sometimes death comes from the tainting of heroin with a more dangerous substance, such as the painkiller, Fentanyl, an opiate that is 10 to 100 times stronger than morphine. Sometimes the death comes later from disease related to the use of dirty needles. But the biggest risk stems from the fact that there is no way for the user to regulate the dosage due to differences in levels of purity. Also following a lengthy period of abstinence, the user's tolerance level breaks down, and his or body is unable to handle a heavy dosage of the drug.

Nishmat, Shabbat morning prayer
Ellen Bernstein is widely recognized as the pioneer thinker and activist who helped define modern "Jewish environmentalism." An inspired speaker, her ability to merge scholarship with personal passion coupled with her activism and vision makes for particularly compelling presentations and classes.
Alon Tal, Ph.d, Professor, Ben Gurion University
It is writers like Ellen Bernstein who make it possible to find answers in the Bible to questions no previous generation has had to ask. A book rich in valuable insights.
Rabbi Harold Kushner, Why Bad Things Happen to Good People
[Ellen's] new book, The Splendor of Creation: A Biblical Ecology is a gem, beautifully written... A deep poetic work about living fully, being alive to life's wonders, feeling connected to creation and to the Creator. Here Bernstein joins the ranks of naturalists like Annie Dillard.

New Yorkers say what little faith they have left in congress may go by the wayside if both sides cannot come to an agreement to avoid a massive furlough that would affect 800,000 federal workers. NY1's Kristen Shaughnessy filed the following report.
Even before this latest fiscal cliffhanger, polls showed the public had little respect for Congress. And people who spoke with NY1 Monday were not happy to learn that even if there is a partial government shutdown, our representatives there will still get paid.
"I have a problem with that. They are making more money than we are," said one New Yorker.
Many people are also fed up with the finger pointing: Democrats blaming Republicans for holding a spending bill hostage over the Affordable Care Act, Republicans blaming Democrats for being unwilling to revisit and make changes to the act which they say need fixing before the rollout which is scheduled for Tuesday.
NY1, though, did find some New Yorkers taking sides.
"I think it is going to wind up hurting a lot of Republicans It is going to make them look bad so, got not much to say. I'm not really interested in watching it. I care about the health plan and a lot of people need help and we pay them, we pay our taxes for them to do a job I just don't think they should shut things down," said one New Yorker.
"The president doesn't want to negotiate, why doesn't he want to negotiate? He is not doing anything for the people. Nothing at all," said another New Yorker. "The shutdown is a great idea."
But the majority of people who spoke with NY1 have just had it with congress in general. They say it is time for both sides to stop with the name calling and the blame game and actually get something done.
"I have no faith in them. It's ridiculous. Grown people who should be working for the country and not. They are playing games basically," said one New Yorker.
"Between the two parties if they can't come to make a decision on this every six months, it's getting more and more ridiculous," said another New Yorker.
"I just think it's sad grown men can't get together and make some sort of compromise," said a third New Yorker.
The standstill has happened before. The longest government shutdown was in December 1995 and January 1996. It lasted 21 days.

Officials OK 10th and 14th street roundabouts
Date: May 2, 2013
by: Roger Drouin | City Editor
The first two of 10 multi-lane roundabouts on U.S. 41 along the bayfront got the go-ahead from the Federal Highway Administration last week.
The federal agency approved the location and design concept for the pair of roundabouts to be installed at U.S. 41 and 10th Street and U.S. 41 and 14th Street.
The approval now means the state's Department of Transportation can begin designing the final construction plans for the two roundabouts, and it clears the way for federal funding.
The $7.9 million project would be the first of a $100 million network of roundabouts that calls for eight additional circular intersections, in addition to the two at 10th and 14th streets. The roundabouts will replace traffic lights along the bayfront.
"They will be the first ones to be constructed and open," said Rod Warner, a roundabout proponent and member of Sarasota-Manatee Metropolitan Planning Organization's citizens advisory committee.
The total cost for the initial pair of roundabouts includes $800,000 for engineering design and $4 million for actual construction. The cost also includes
$3.1 million for right of way acquisition. The city is contributing an additional estimated $6.3 million of city-owned land as right of way.
The cost of construction and engineering work will be funded, in part, with $2.5 million in state funding and
$1.5 million in federal funding, said Robin Stublen, public information officer for the Florida Department of Transportation.
Warner said he hopes the first pair of roundabouts will get people acquainted to the circular traffic devices on the bayfront — before the other eight are constructed.
But, those who may not be on board with the new traffic-control devices have a few more years to enjoy the traffic lights along the bay because construction of the first two roundabouts is at least four or five years away.
"Design work will take at least two years," Stublen said. "Right of way acquisition is another two years. In the perfect scenario it is four or five years before construction of this project would begin."
Warner said the project to install 10 roundabouts would be the first of its kind in Florida.
"It will make Sarasota an even nicer, more welcoming place than it already is," Warner said.
Roundabouts would also add an economic benefit to the North Trail, proponents argue. A well-planned corridor of roundabouts would clear the way for redevelopment along the North Trail and create a more inviting welcome — complete with upgrading landscaping and trees — to downtown from the airport.
Jeff Oldenburg said he thinks the first two roundabouts will set the stage for other roundabouts on U.S. 41 — including one at Martin Luther King Way and U.S. 41, near the strip mall he owns across the street from Ringling College of Art and Design.
"I asked Alex DavisShaw (city engineer) if I will live to see the roundabout at Martin Luther King in my lifetime, and she said I would," Oldenburg said. "'So, it's not a mirage?' I asked."
"It will give the city's gateway an aesthetically pleasing look," Oldenburg said.
Oldenburg thinks it will keep traffic flowing, because there will be no red lights, but slow down the rate of speed motorists travel, making it a safer and more pleasant place for pedestrians and bicyclists on the North Trail.
Oldenburg said when he is downtown, he goes out of his way to drive through the roundabout at Five Points because it's a more-pleasing drive.
Early discussions are under way for some element of public art to be installed in the middle of the roundabouts on U.S. 41, Warner said.

- US highway planners have tragically missed countless opportunities for safer and more economical traffic regulation, by building stop lights at any intersection, to allocate priorities. They have: caused drivers to waste billions of gallons of fuel; induced dangerous levels of stress in drivers trying to calculate the risks of continuing as the lights are turning yellow; made taxpayers pay billions in infrastructure construction and light maintenance; allowed drivers to feel a legitimate entitlement to fill the time wasted at lights (using cell phones, applying make-up, reading maps) so that they fail to move timely on green; and added significantly to drivers' frustration by making them gaze for lengthy periods at empty intersections.
The European experience has been positive. While roundabouts don't replace every stop light, they can be used very effectively in countless locations - sometimes supplemented by lights at peak periods.
A major factor, in my opinion, against roundabouts' adoption in the US is access to cheap fuel. I understand the horrified cries every time prices oscillate by 15 or 20 cents; however, if US consumers were paying - for example, UK prices - at $ 8.10 per gallon, the enthusisam for economising would be greatly enhanced; enforced idling might get more attention and spur consumers to look for ways to make real savings . (The only countries I have visited which dont have comparable prices, incidentally, are the oil producers in the Middle East.)
Finally, we need to look at mini roundabouts to replace 3/4/and more way stop signs, to reduce the idling time wasted at these intersections.. I am looking for a suitable forum to advance this concept, and welcome any suggestions. My email is firstname.lastname@example.com

- Can't hardly wait for the first of many traffic snags, driver confusion, pedestrian confusion. I'm overwhelmed by the huge number of pedestrians walking along US 41 just waiting for the opportunity to cross the road. This over reaction to bay front connectivity is just that. There are never large numbers of pedestrians waiting to cross because there is nothing for them to cross over for.

- The FHWA has a video about modern roundabouts that is mostly accurate (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhHzly_6lWM ).
Modern roundabouts are the safest form of intersection in the world. Visit http://tinyurl.com/iihsRAB for FAQs and safety facts.

Fathers are Valued Volunteers at Wilder Elementary School
Posted Date: 12/7/2012
Parent volunteers are greatly appreciated at Wilder Elementary School. Among the most dedicated are two fathers who have made volunteering at Wilder a priority in their schedules.
Raymond Armentrout has been helping in his daughter Tori's classroom since she was in first grade. Tori's third grade teacher, Beth O'Reilly, was happy to share her appreciation of Armentrout's support. She said, "As a third grade teacher, I am always looking to give my students the opportunity to make real world applications. To accomplish this, we have a bank and store that the students can use when we have a parent helper available. Mr. Armentrout graciously volunteers to help with this two days a week. On the days that he is here, he meets with students one-on-one to discuss their 'financial situation.' They talk about budgeting money, saving money and, of course, making good choices spending money. Mr. Armentrout encourages each student to save some money if the student is unsure what to purchase because it will benefit them later in the school year. When Mr. Armentrout volunteers in my classroom, he assumes the voice of a banker, calling each student by first and last name. He asks, 'Mr. Smith, would you like to come to the bank, sir?' His serious demeanor makes each student feel important. Mr. Armentrout is easy to work with. He is open to ideas and suggestions, always willing to do more if I ask him. He keeps track of my students' spending habits and advises me on what items I need to purchase for our store. The kids love having him in the classroom and truly enjoy meeting with him individually."
Father volunteer Kevin Bartholomew also has a third grade daughter, Emily, at Wilder. He has served as parent representative on the Elementary Programming Administrative Committee since it was formed last school year. His participation in meetings and feedback to the district committee has been very helpful. Wilder staff and students are most appreciative of his gardening and landscaping talents. Bartholomew coordinated the efforts of a small team of parents in cleaning out the flower beds and planting new foliage to beautify the front of the school. He also serves as a committee chair for the Wilder Parent Teacher Association, and is in regular attendance at the meetings. When asked about her father, Emily shared, "My dad worked really hard to make our school flower beds pretty and that makes me feel proud." Wilder Elementary staff truly values all their parent volunteers. The fathers highlighted here are representative of many parents who give their time and talents to make the school community special.

The Game Effect News
Saint's Row: The Third Features Ultra-Classy "Whored Mode"
Saint's Row's spin on the Horde Mode mechanics of its contemporaries is a classical parody of the highest caliber.
By Dylan Coffey on 10/19/2011
Ever wake up in the morning and think, "Gee, I'd love to clobber some men in BDSM gear with a giant, floppy, purple dildo?" Neither have I, but apparently that demographic is significant enough to warrant the inclusion of "Whored Mode" in Saint's Row: The Third. Worry not; if dildonic combat isn't your thing, you'll also have the opportunity to face down machine-gun-toting question marks, zombies, and soda mascots. Saint's Row has always been a very tongue-in-cheek franchise, but the third iteration of the sandbox crime shooter is really raising the bar on positively absurd game options. Like other onslaught game types, "Whored Mode" can be played alone or with a friend, though it is more merciful than its contemporaries in that failure requires only restarting the wave, not the entire gauntlet. Saint's Row: The Third - and the opportunity to gun down dozens of hos in an organized fashion in "Whored Mode" - release on November 15th in the United States.

Definitely, but in a good way.

true i suppose it is nice to see a game willing to step outside the box, even if its not necessarily in ways that interest me.

When we were in Australia, while at Uluru we heard the story of a woman convicted of murder when she told authorities, "A dingo ate my baby." According to Lindsay, the mother, she heard her baby cry out and when she went to check, saw a dingo. The baby was gone. She was later found guilty of murder - no one believed her. The incident was dramatized in a Meryl Streep movie, "Cry in the Dark." Authorities had held three coroner's inquests and, we reported in February, that one more was scheduled.
The last inquest was finally concluded. The inquest found that a dingo not only could be responsible for baby Azaria's death, but no other conclusion could be reached. It has been more than 30 years since the incident happened. You can read/watch videos of several portions of the case and there is a link to Lindsay's (the mother) lawyer's tie. His tie was embroidered with dingos!
Signs are now posted at Uluru warning of potential dingo attacks, with instructions to rum to the cement block laundry room if the siren sounds. Nervous night!I would have much rather been in an RV than a tent.
It certainly seems possible that a hungry dingo could grab a few week old baby and drag it off. I'm glad that after 30 years, Azaria's parents have some peace and their names cleared. Jaimie Hall Bruzenak

But, against my better judgement, I did.
Big mistake!
My friend (who recently got married) had paid $5,000 to the people who run McFinn's and judging by what I saw, they owe him about $4,000 back.
I came in with a clear head and was able to see the criminality going on. Yet, I was denied service on three seperate occasions.
Finally, I spoke to Finbar who runs the place. He quickly realised I wasn't drunk and allowed the barman to serve me. I was charged seven bucks after having been put through a pathetic charade. These people OWE me.
Absolutely DISGRACEFUL.

Reader: The world ended the day The Real World started
The world didn't end last May 21, as Harold Camping had predicted. Nor did it end on October 21, which was his revised prediction.
Finally earlier this month, the 90-year-old Camping, who was born in Boulder, admitted he was wrong, and said he was getting out of the predictions business.
As Camping said on his Family Radio website:
We have learned the very painful lesson that all of creation is in God's hands and He will end time in His time, not ours! We humbly recognize that God may not tell His people the date when Christ will return, any more than He tells anyone the date they will die physically.
But Transient thinks he can pinpoint the exact date of Armageddon:
The world ended when the first Real World came out. We're just living in reality TV hell right now.
And that's a world with no end in sight....

Everyone loves chocolate, but come Valentine's Day, the tried-and-true box of candy can seem a bit mundane. This year, spice up your love life and surprise your loved one with one of these out-of-the-box chocolaty gifts.
If you think your sweetie would appreciate a more traditional approach to the holiday, check out this collection of some of our best chocolate recipes.

Chocolate Perfume
Want to give your love the luscious scent of pure chocolate without the calories? Zaja Naturals, owned by the Beer Soap Company, makes an array of all-natural bath and beauty products. Love Chocolate Perfume Oil has become one of the company's most popular scents, likely because, in co-owner Zaidat's words, it is "feminine and mature, without being a 'candy' type of aroma. Its mixture of citrus and cocoa awakes the senses." Sounds almost good enough to eat!
