by Carol Fry Bohlin (News Bulletin, December 2003)
On January 8, 2002, President Bush signed the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB), which states that by 2013-14, all students—including students with disabilities and those lacking English proficiency—must be proficient in reading/language arts and mathematics. In compliance with NCLB, state education officials hastened to develop detailed state accountability plans to address guidelines that were being concurrently finalized by the U.S. Department of Education.
The final accountability designs, which were due May 1, 2003, had to address 10 principles outlined by Education Secretary Rod Paige (www.ed.gov/policy/elsec/guid/secletter/020724.html) and had to include the following performance indicators on which a determination of "adequate yearly progress" (AYP) would be based: proficiency in reading/language arts and in mathematics, participation rates on reading/language arts and on mathematics assessments, high school graduation rates, and at least one additional indicator at the K-8 level. Although all states were required to follow these basic guidelines, each state's accountability system could reflect that state's education goals, standards, and assessments—thus, each state plan is distinctive.
The latitude given to states to determine their assessment instruments, baseline scores for 2001-02, and definitions of "proficiency" has contributed to a wide variation in the states' AYP "success rates" this year (e.g., nearly 90 percent of Florida's schools failed to show AYP, while almost 80 percent of Connecticut's schools met AYP targets).
Some school officials have expressed frustration about the expectation of NCLB that students in all subgroups (racial/ethnic, language proficiency, etc.) must demonstrate significant academic growth in order for a school to meet AYP goals. An additional challenge is that federal funding for NCLB is well below levels originally designated for its implementation, a situation that is fueling frustration in many schools and school systems that are struggling to avoid eventual sanctions for failing to show AYP.
Still, there are states where officials were buoyed by recent statewide results. California's Superintendent of Public Instruction Jack O'Connell recently released 2002-03 Academic Performance Index Growth reports showing that 90 percent of California's public schools improved their scores, and that 78 percent of schools met their academic performance targets—a 26-point gain from 2002.
"This is terrific news," said O'Connell. "I am very proud of our entire education community and am encouraged by the outstanding academic progress our schools are making. These scores show that when given clear standards, even if they are rigorous, our students can and will learn the curriculum."

Without a pulse
I only discovered my love for tactics-heavy games recently; Sniper Elite V2 looked then appeared to be the perfect game to satisfy my niche obsession.
It looks surprisingly pretty — most likely due to the mix of texture-detail and lighting. My first impressions were further strengthened by the tutorial missions. Right off the gate, I was taught to booby-trap an enemy soldier's body with a land mine — killing any curious Nazi. The game was going well until I realized how linear it really is. I was set to ambush a convoy by planting explosive charges on some parked vehicles. I then was instructed to head to a vantage point where I could remotely detonate the charges with a sniper shot. Sure enough, it was very effective at disrupting and dealing with some of the convoy; however, it didn't feel rewarding at all because I didn't think of it. Rather the game itself told me to explicitly carry out these actions. More so, the convoy is not a moving and breathing entity within the world; it was set to come exactly after a timer expired upon completing an objective.
The game if anything goes stale from that point on where each mission is so constrained in both the path and choices you have available. Sometimes as the player, it is simply not possible to avoid taking out guards without alerting the whole German battalion while you're at it; up begins the battle music and you know there are Nazis heading your way. The enemy soldiers usually don't make it easy to snipe them, so you are forced to switch to a side arm to take them out. One way to deal with the swarm is to scatter a few traps, but either way you will run into a close encounter sometime.
Speaking of side arms, they feel extremely deliberately underpowered and generally boring compared to the sniper rifles. The developers would much rather have the player use a sniper rifle, but in the end it should be possible to switch to something reliable for close quarters if need be. The ammo for non-snipers is scarce — making it even less of a reason to ever use them unless it is completely necessary.
I really wanted the game to be something more than this. It feels like many parts are intentional throwbacks to games of a decade ago: enemies spawn out from their door, levels are closed in by some conveniently parked vehicles, and sometimes there are simply walls to stop the player from wandering too far away.
If you like planning out battles and don't currently have anything to fill this gap for now, it is still a worthwhile experience.

Five Things Weird Al Critiques in Mandatory Fun

By Ashley Zimmerman
Just because a star was bred in Hollywood doesn't necessarily mean he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Just take Mickey Avalon, the unlikely king of L.A.'s swanky clubs. He came from beginnings far beyond dubious and instead well into deranged, a fact he's celebrated in his music. His unique glam-punk take on hip-hop features lyrics forged of the most brutal honesty you've ever been bludgeoned with.
"The easiest way for me to deal with my own shyness has always been just to jump into it," explains Avalon, born Yeshe Perl. "So it's always been easier to show the warts and all."
And show the warts he does, speaking with utter candor about his upbringing. Song subjects have included his deceased father's heroin addiction (he actually died in an automobile accident), his mother's occupation as a pot dealer, Avalon's own inevitable trip down that path. He too sold drugs and became a junkie, he openly admits.
That's all fair game in his music. So is his former homelessness and his foray into gay prostitution (used to fund his addiction). "I used to work nights at hotcock.com," he raps in "Waiting to Die," from his 2006 self-titled debut album. "But then I got fired when my mom logged on."
But it's not shock value that fueled Avalon's approach. "When you try to hide stuff, it seems like that's when people can kind of come after you," he says. "The more you put stuff out there, people can't really do anything, 'cause you take the power away from them."
Avalon's upcoming sophomore release (the title of which remains undecided) bears newfound focus, with a high-priced producer (Doctor Luke, who has worked with the likes of Britney Spears and Katy Perry) and the point of view of a distinctly more normal life. Still, he promises all the edge fans have come to expect from him.
"I don't talk about stuff that isn't relevant anymore," he explains. "Like 50 Cent talking about selling crack and you know he hasn't sold crack in ten years 'cause now he's a multimillionaire. I don't talk about living on the streets or anything like that. But it's still like a movie, and all the characters are still sordid people, like hookers and drug addicts and pimps and thieves and whatever. So it's still my shit, but just more sonic, I guess."
Mickey Avalon has come a long way from selling himself for his next fix, but grime and grit remain his stock in trade. And his live shows continue to be the notorious displays of debauchery that made him famous (or infamous) in the first place. And to think, he seemed like such a nice, wholesome guy when we spoke...

Nissan Celebrates Two Years Of LEAF Sales With Announcement Of U.S. Battery Plant
The recent growth of Nissan's U.S. manufacturing plants is part of a strategy to localize core-model production. By 2015, Nissan aims to have 85 percent of all Nissan and Infiniti products that are sold in the United States produced in North America. Nissan, which is in the middle of a product blitz launching five key models in 15 months, will report record sales for 2013 following a year of significant new vehicle introductions, such as the all-new 2013 Altima, Sentra and Pathfinder.
Combined, the construction of the battery plant and modification of the Smyrna manufacturing facility represent an investment of up to $1.7 billion when built to full capacity. The project is supported by a U.S. Department of Energy loan for up to $1.4 billion.
The loan was issued as part of the Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Loan Program, program authorized by Congress as part of the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. The program is designed to accelerate the development of vehicles and technologies that increase U.S. energy independence, create cleaner means of transportation and stimulate the American economy.

873 Glendale, MO Appliance Manufacturers and Showrooms
As anyone who's ever tried to fix a broken garbage disposal or install a new microwave oven can tell you, sometimes hiring an appliance professional is worth every bit of the cost. Appliance problems can be time consuming for many homeowners to diagnose and repair, and a botched attempt can lead to bigger hassles and more money out of pocket. And with some appliances, such as ranges, grills and other pieces powered by gas, hiring a pro is a smart safety precaution. You can find more appliances in St Louis, Saint Louis, Saint Charles, Saint Peters and Florissant. More

"An awesome recipe. I create a vegan version with soy or rice milk and vegannaise. I also use fructose in place of the sugar for friends with sensitivities. Oh, and the nuts are either on the side (at home we have a nut allergy) or sunflower seeds are offered when we take it elsewhere and don't know what allergies are there. Always a hit!"
"Awesome! We doubled the recipe and, with the help of a couple of sets of extra chopping hands, had it and the individual Irish soda breads on the table in under an hour after a busy day! So good, we did it two days in a row! Thanks!!!"
"These were delightful. I used a vegan egg replacer because I can't eat eggs and they turned out so well I baked them two nights in a row!"

Ultherapy WORTH IT RATING DETAILS
Reviews from the Community
Already See Improvement -NJ
I had my upper neck done 2 days ago. My skin feels and looks tighter already. But be cautioned: the procedure DOES NOT TICKLE. It is quite painful, even on a pre-procedure mega-dose of ibuprofen. (And I'm pretty tough!) I am still experiencing pain, but it's now more of a dull ache (which is... READ MORE
Ulthera and Botox Injections - Bristol, United Kingdom, GB

More Sessions Required - Vancouver, BC
I had Ultherapy done on the area below the chin and upper neck. The doctor told me before-hand that 4 sessions would be required for full benefit to be seen and that one would make very little difference. One follow-up session per year is then required. I am 48 years old and there is a... READ MORE
Horrible Experience! -Las Vegas, NV
This treatment was highly recommended by Jamie, Dr. Hankin's office manager and assistant in Las Vegas. It was extremely painful!

Not Worth It -Philadelphia, PA
I had two Ulthera treatments last year- one on the upper portion of my face and one on the lower portion of my face. There was no noticeable results.

Not Worth the Time or Money - Boca Raton, FL
I was ready to start looking into neck lift surgery when I saw advertisement for Ultherapy.

I'm a pretty young-looking 48 (cripes, doesn't everyone say that? I really have taken care of myself though, honestly), but I was feeling pretty bad about my "new" jowling and under-chin laxity.

Last week saw the official announcement of some of the new 'Star Wars: Episode 7' characters' names. There was Kylo Ren, Finn, Rey, BB-8, and who could forget Poe Dameron. But, there's one more new 'Star Wars' character whose name has been revealed and if you thought "Kylo Ren" sounded silly, wait until you hear this: Captain Phasma.
If the Elf on the Shelf doesn't get your kids to behave, then maybe it's best to summon the pre-eminent authority on being naughty and nice, like this woman did.
Leon and Romy were in Sydney, Australia for a little rest and relaxation during the holiday season. The relaxation turned to unrest when a gunman took several hostage at a local cafe. Luckily, they flew out minutes before it happened.

As soon as the American bases pulled out from Clark, Pampanga back in the 90's, this buzzing town of foreigners and locals were mostly replaced by sounds of crickets at night. Much of the PX stores closed down, the casino closed down, many establishments ceased operation as the American soldiers bade goodbye.
It seems like a sad story (or not, depending on your political view) but I was fonrtunate enough to discover a gem within this semi-deserted town. In a trip with my colleagues when I used to teach in school, we had our annual retreat and vacation at this place: Clearwater Resort. I know, it's not a beach, it's not fancy hotel in the city- it's a place close to nature where I could actually write a book or paint a portrait.
Imitating a lakeshore vacation spot somewhere in the US, Clearwater Resort is like a summer camp place with log cabins, dirt paths, and giant trees. When I went there, I thought it was a perfect place to reflect and take a step back in life. I was so inspired by my surroundings that I just immersed myself in taking photographs of the place and my colleagues enjoying it. And that time, we just had it all by ourselves.
This beautiful respite offers some peace of mind and some great activities as well. You can do enjoy all of the following: fishing, kayaking, boating, swimming by the lakeside, playing beach volleyball, biking, playing basketball, swinging under a tree, exploring the dirt paths, and sleeping in their comfortable beds.
- Clearwater Resort is just an hour or two from Quezon City via NLEX.
- Pleace is perfect for office retreats and team-building activities.
- Food is not offered in the place. You can bring food, take-out from nearby restos in Clark, or have it delivered.
- Activities mentioned above have separate charges and fees (like boat rental, rental of fishing equipment, etc…)
- Bring a torchlight. It can get quite dark at night.

The IBM PC, IBM's first personal computer, was introduced today in 1981. If you were to purchase this revolutionary computer on August 12, 1981 you would have paid $1,565 USD (equal to $3,000 USD today) for a basic configuration with 16K RAM (that's kilobytes . . . not gigabytes!) and no disk drives.
Not only did the IBM PC change the landscape of the business world, it also impacted the home life of millions of Americans as well as people around the globe. The IBM PC also impacted genealogy and the way in which we not only tracked our research, but years later how we found records and information via the Internet.
My First Encounter with the IBM PC: It Changed My Life
In 1984 I was working at the US Department of Agriculture in Washington, DC and one day someone placed this unusual machine on my desk. They said, "Here. You have the first IBM PC in the department. I want you to learn how to use it and then start teaching everyone else in the department how to use it." That's how I got started in the emerging Information Technology field – as an "accidental trainer."
Within a year, I was proficient in not only all the basics of the IBM PC, its DOS operating system, but also programs such as Lotus 1,2,3 and WordPerfect. Here I was with a liberal arts degree from a private university working with computers. It's funny how life takes a different direction than you had planned!
Primitive Personal Computing – 1980s Style
In recent discussions with colleagues in the genealogy field, I've been taking a walk down memory lane thinking about how we used the IBM PC. I'm sure to the Millennials and the younger generation how we worked seemed downright primitive.
- Most IBM PCs had one disk drive, but eventually I worked with version that had two disk drives, allowing you to copy disks.
- Speaking of disks, they were 5 1/4" floppy disks that came 10 to a box and had to be "formatted" in order to be used. Remember the labels you would use to designate what was on the floppy disk?
- We kept floppy disks in large plastic filing containers, some of which had a lock and key.
- Monitors displayed neon green text and in future years, many migrated to the "amber" monitors that were easier on the eyes.
- Speaking of monitors, you tried not to leave the monitor on too long since you could "burn" an image into the screen. Thus we had "screen saver" programs . . . Flying Toasters anyone?
- You had to be proficient in DOS and using the c:/ command prompt in order to run a directory listing and to copy and delete files.
- The first spreadsheet program I used was Lotus 1,2,3 and then I used a program called Symphony which had a separate word processing program. Still, my favorite program was WordPress with its "reveal codes" and simple way of composing documents.
- Software manuals were hundreds of pages, came in boxes with small two or three ring binders and no one seemed to ever use them.
- We printed quite a bit with those early PCs didn't we? The printers were dot matrix, with paper that came in a box and had holes one each side. And those printers were LOUD . . . so loud that you bought a separate noise cover so you could work in the same room!
What I realize most comparing today's move towards "virtual" documents and apps is how much "work" it was just to use a computer. There were so many peripherals and things you had to buy. It all seems so wasteful now but that was the generally accepted practice of being on the cutting edge of computing.
And genealogy? My first genealogy software program was Family Tree Maker sold by Banner Blue software! I also remember later using Prodigy, CompuServe, and eventually the Internet to connect with others in genealogy.
What Do You Remember?
So when did you get your first personal computer? Was it an IBM PC? An Apple? Perhaps a Commodore 64 or an Osborne? What programs did you run? And what about genealogy . . . what was the first program you used for tracing your family history and keeping track of information?

WrongWoods Chest of DrawersPrice: $4,424.00
Design by Richard Woods and Sebastian Wrong, 2007.
By Established & Sons.
Designers Richard Woods and Sebastian Wrong collaborated to create pieces for the WrongWoods Collection, and the resulting pieces couldn't be more unique. Pieces in the collection are reminiscent of 1950s furniture, invoking nostalgia for mid-century domestic interiors.

The Portuguese in the United Kingdom (also known as Portuguese Britons or the British Portuguese Community) is a term that refers to British citizens and residents of the UK who are connected to the country of Portugal by birth, descent or citizenship.

History and settlement[edit]
The first Portuguese community in Britain was actually made up of people of secret Jewish descent (known as New Christians) who escaped persecution in Portugal from the year 1496 onwards. This led to the founding of a small secret Portuguese Jewish community in London. By 1550, there were around a hundred members of the Portuguese Jewish community in London. This centred on the Anes family who provided a physician to Queen Elizabeth. The Portuguese Jewish community of London suffered a setback in 1609 when they were officially expelled. However, there is evidence that at least some of them continued to live in London.
The greatest number of Portuguese, however, came to the UK in the 1960s and 1970s during the rule of Portuguese dictator António de Oliveira Salazar. Prior to membership of the European Union in 1986, Portugal was one of the poorest countries in Western Europe. The pressure on the land and limited opportunities in the manufacturing sector meant that there was often no alternative but looking for work abroad. During this period, many young men also emigrated to avoid military service, as Portugal waged a series of wars in an attempt to keep its African colonies of Angola, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique, and São Tomé and Príncipe. Many Portuguese people originated from their former overseas territories in Africa and Macau (see Macanese people) and former British territories in Guyana and Hong Kong.
International relations[edit]
The list below is of British and Portuguese town twinnings.
- Bristol, South West and Porto
- Barton-upon-Humber, North Lincolnshire and Gondomar
- Halton, Cheshire and Leiria
- Sherborne, Dorset and Sesimbra, Setúbal
According to the 2011 UK Census, some 88,161 (an increase of 36,555 in 2001) were residing in the UK, including British born people of Portuguese descent; the total number of Britons of Portuguese origin is estimated at over 500,000.[1][2]
Population distribution[edit]
Mainland United Kingdom
There is an estimated 27,000 strong community in Lambeth alone and large numbers of first and second generations in Vauxhall, Harlesden and Camden Town. The countless cafés, restaurants and bars in Stockwell, otherwise known as Little Portugal, will be the focal point for most of the action. The largest static group is found in the Vauxhall area south of the Thames, a long-standing hub for the Portuguese community. There is also a minor Portuguese population and business establishments in the area of North Kensington. Outside London there is a wide spread of Portugal-born people; many arrive for the agricultural picking season and then return home. During the late 1990s, a slow trickle of Portuguese immigrants started to arrive in the town of Thetford, East Anglia. By 2004, the media were suggesting that there may be as many as 6,000 Portuguese-speakers in the Thetford area, where there are many Portuguese cafés, restaurants, delicatessens, etc. This figure would represent around 30% of the local population.[3]
Crown dependencies and overseas territories
The Channel Islands of Jersey and Guernsey also have sizeable Portuguese populations, including many from Madeira. At the time of the 2001 census, around 7% of the population of Jersey - some 6,000 people - had been born in Portugal. It has been estimated that between 15% and 20% of Jersey's population are of Portuguese origin. In 2000, the Portuguese community in Guernsey was estimated to be around 3.3% of the population. Also worth noting is the fact that 9% (over 5,000 people) of the population of the British overseas territory Bermuda reported being of Portuguese descent (particularly from the Azores) on the 2000 census.
Out of the 36,402 Portuguese born people in the UK in 2001, 60% were in London – the most popular single area being Vauxhall. Three mostly agricultural areas predominate outside of the capital: the South West, South East and East of England. The census also showed that 50% of the increase in Portugal-born people between 1991 and 2001, was in the capital.
Portuguese is spoken as a mother tongue by large numbers of people who have settled in the UK, in a 2000 study of school children in London, Portuguese prevailed as the 14th most common language amongst them. Kensington and Chelsea, Lambeth and Westminster are all noted for their large Portuguese-speaking communities, the majority of these speakers are Portuguese immigrants who work in the catering and hotels industry. There is also a sizeable community of Kriolu speakers in Greenwich, which is a Portuguese-African creole originating in Cape Verde. It is unknown how many first or second generation Portuguese Britons speak English as a first or second language, as no census of the entire community has ever been performed.[4] An estimates 50,000 Portuguese-speakers reside in East Anglia with tens of thousands of Portuguese speakers living in Norfolk and Thetford, although many of these are actually of Brazilian origin.[5] The 2011 Census showed that Portuguese is the 10th most widely spoken language within England and Wales, with 133,000 people claiming it as their first language.[6]
70.68% of recent Portuguese immigrants to the UK of working age are employed (compared to 73.49% for British born people regardless of race or ethnic background). 13.39% of recent immigrants are low earners, which is pay less than £149.20 a week (compared to 21.08% for British-born people), and 2.68% are high earners, which is more than £750 per week (compared to 6.98% for British-born people). The percentages for settled immigrants are slightly different, 68.57% are employed, with 14.00% being low earners and 6.00% high earners.[7]

Graduate Tori Murden McClure Publishes MemoirPosted April 2nd, 2009 by Virginia Mattingly
University of Louisville Brandeis School of Law alumna and Louisville public figure Tori Murden McClure, '95, the first woman to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean, will publish her memoir, A Pearl in the Storm, on April 7. Detailing her first and second attempts to row across the Atlantic, A Pearl in the Storm, focuses on Tori's personal reflections on the achievements, along with the lessons she learned along the way. The memoir includes tales of Tori's time in Louisville, and has been hailed by actress Candace Bergen as one of "courage, adventure and personal discovery that will appeal to women - and men of all ages."
Tori Murden McClure will give a booktalk at the Public Library's downtown branch at 7 PM on April 7. Tickets are free and may be ordered online or by calling 574-1644. She's also the featured guest at Aprily's Kentucky Author Forum on April 14 at the Bomhard Theater in the Kentucky Center for the Arts. This event includes a book sale in the Main Lobby from 6-7 PM followed by a lecture and Q&A session from 7-8 PM and then a post reception and book signing in the Main Lobby 8-9 PM. Tickets are $15 and may be ordered online or by calling 584-7777.
"Unlike Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea, Tori Murden McClure's true story of a woman and the sea and a boat named American Pearl is one of victory. But her triumph is not merely over the elements. Tori finds the courage to cross the inner seas and discover not monsters but a land of promise and an expanded opportunity to love. If you want to be inspired, read this book. You won't stop till you've finished." -- Sena Jeter Naslund, author of Ahab's Wife

There are few things that are as satisfying to eat as a good burger. It may sound simple, a good patty with cheese on a bun. Oh. Yeah. The best thing is that you can dress it up fancy with any cheese you like, any number of cheeses you want, and the toppings can be simple (just ketchup please) or over the top (avocado, sriracha and garlic aoli hmmmm ok!).
To help celebrate National Cheeseburger Day, September 18th (put it on your calendar for next year why don't ya), I have an awesome STUFFED cheeseburger recipe. No need to worry about the cheese on top of your burger making the other toppings sliding off, the cheese is INSIDE of the burger. YES! Not only that, but the ground meat includes Cluck 'n Moo™ ground. This is a blend of chicken and beef mixed together for flavor. It is also made from antibiotic and hormone free, humanely raised chickens and grass-fed cows and contains 52% less fat, 34% fewer calories and 57% less saturated fat than a typical grass-fed beef burger. All I needed to convince me to have a second, or third, helping of these Gorgonzola stuffed burgers, come on THEY'RE HEALTHY!
Ok enough chatter, let's get down to business of making this burger.

"Fresh from the garden taste. I combined Roma tomatoes with heirloom ones and it worked great. I also add fresh herbs (sage, rosemary, basil, and tarragon), green chilies, jalapenos, and red/yellow bell peepers. I freeze this and give to my friends and use it when I need spaghetti sauce. Love this sauce!!!"
"I got this same recipe off of www.lemonrecipes.net. Either way it was a huge hit I made it twice in two weeks. My husband who doesn't like lemon meringue pie loves this one."
"This was as good as the lava cake you get at domino's....Chocolaty. It was a big hit. Thank you!"
"We used lemon peels instead, they turned out great, Thanks for the recipe."
"We loved this recipe. I uselimeade instead of lemonade, it was what was on hand. Also I have a lemon tree so we cut up two lemons and added it to the pot. I used leftover broth with some cornstarch and made a sauce to drizzle over the chicken and rice. Better than lemon chicken at the Chinese restaurant."
"I made key lime pie and this was great with it...great recipe."
"I have made this recipe twice and I love it. I served for my husband and guests, it was a hit. Easy to make and it really does make enough for two dinners!"
"This was good. I would make it again."
"My husband liked this alot. Thanks!"
"I don't like asparagus, or I thought I didn't until this recipe. It is a wonderful way to make asparagus!!!"
