|This year my earliest beans are:
My Empress and Antea bush beans are lagging behind. This has been the rainiest summer on record to this point, which might have had some influence. The Cherokee, Roma II, and Blue Coco have been the standouts to this point.
How are everyone else's beans doing?

|After a very slow start, all of mine are doing fine. The three rice beans I'm growing will be ready for the green bean taste test in a couple of days.
The Chinese Red Noodles in the greenhouse, (not a hope in hades growing these outside especially this year) are starting to flower and the Pretzel planted at the same time have just been sitting there sulking, this morning I noticed one of them has decided it might try climbing a pole, we'll see.
My Italians, Uncle Steve's, Tennessee Cutshorts, Insuk Wang Kong, Bosnian Pole, Zelma Zesta, Signora della Campagna, Garafal Oro, Oregon Giant and Barksdale are all starting to flower some have beans forming. Blue Jays were planted late but are looking good.
We'll only get a taste of most of these beans, I want to leave most of them for seed. I'll still bag some of the flowers but don't think there would be much crossing if I didn't. This is the first year in all the years I've grown tomatoes I've had to go out and shake flowers to set fruit. No bees, just a few paper wasps that I can see.
I see we are growing many of the same beans.
How are going to use the rice beans you mentioned?
"The three rice beans I'm growing will be ready for the green bean taste test in a couple of days."

|Dean, I'm just going to steam them, slather them in butter and chow down, I grew all three in containers which spent a lot of time in the greenhouse, that's why they're ahead of the rest. I have Little White Rice, Ritz Escoffier and Comtesse de Chambord. I think rice beans are usually used in the dried stage but thought I would try them at the green bean stage. CdeC is said to be quite sweet at this stage I don't know about the others.
|I never heard of rice beans. These forums are an education.
Dean, how do you rate your beans on flavor?
I'm growing four kinds of bush beans in containers: Black Valentine, Provider, Royal Burgundy, and Tenderpod. Provider was the earliest (didn't count days) and the most prolific. Black Valentine was the second earliest. Royal Burgundy and Tenderpod have been lagging behind, and I picked the first of them today.
This is my first time growing any of these particular varieties. I had been thinking Tenderpod sounded a tad gimmicky, and since it hasn't impressed me with earliness or yield, I wasn't feeling all that positive about it . . . until I tasted it. Not beany, which is what I usually like, but definitely delicious.
I was prepared to love Royal Burgundy, which people have raved about. I liked it, but I liked Tenderpod better. I'll have to compare Tenderpod to Black Valentine, which I also liked a lot. As for Provider, the flavor is decent I award them a lot of points for "early and prolific."
I have Kentucky Wonder and Fortex growing on an 8' arch. Some of the KWs have reached the top, but none of the plants have blossoms yet.
|alisande asked, "Dean, how do you rate your beans on flavor?"
I guess I read that question in two different ways. :)
First, if you are asking my methods, then I like to taste a couple beans raw in the garden, steam a couple and then cook some either in cheese oor with bacon and compare all of the taste. The taste like most things in the world is totally subjective to me.
Second, if you are asking how I rate the individual beans I listed above, then I would say the Empress, Cherokee wax and Roma II are the winners, in no particular order, each with their own tastes.
I really like Rattlesnake pole beans as well.
|Thanks, Dean. I can see that I worded that a little ambiguously. I was looking for the second answer, but the first one was interesting, too--although I can't imagine eating green beans with cheese or bacon. (No criticism implied......it's a regional thing, plus my diet tends to be healthy in the extreme.) :-)
Someone else said good things about Roma II. I'll have to look into them next year.

|Mmmmm, fresh steamed beans, crispy bacon bits with just a tad of bacon drippings and lots of fresh ground pepper, don't do it very often but oh so good.
I also like steamed beans with a pat of butter and parmesan cheese sprinkled on them. Haven't cooked any of the rice beans yet but have sampled one or two raw and they were quite sweet. I think I will be growing a couple of rows of these next year.
Dean how do you cook your beans in cheese, do you make a cheese sauce or?

text: Well, John Clayton is trying to keep up with the stat happy fandoom that is out there, but he is just too stupid to do a halfway decent job of it. Take this article on teams that he feels the schedule will aid in a turnaround. I will focus on this paragraph: Admittedly, Clayton is correct that SD's 2005 opponents were more difficult that their 2006 foes: 2005 - NFCE, AFCE, Pitt/Indy 2006 - NFCW, AFCN, Buff/TN but I hardly think that the difference is worth 5 games. Really, the divisions largely cancel each other out (2006 AFCN > 2005 AFCE / 2005 NFCE > 2006 NFCW) leaving the primary difference coming from the other two foes. All that said, here is where the gap in Clayton's mental process is: He is using same season results in his earlier comparisons but he is using prior year results in his projections. If he instead kept the criteria the same, the 2006 SD team would have been expected to face a terribly difficult schedule that included a very strong AFCN division with two 11 win teams, a 13 win team twice and another 10 win team twice. Leave the quantitative thinking to the big boys John.

The Prospects for the BRICs
The New Academic Superpowers?
BibtexEndnoteRISGoogle ScholarPrintEmail
Brazil, Russia, India and China - the BRIC countries - show impressive growth in their higher education systems and promise to expand and improve them in the coming decades. Yet, it is by no means assured that they will achieve the academic prominence that is more likely in the economic or political spheres. Each faces significant challenges. This essay analyses some of the systemic factors that affect higher education in the BRICs and also the central prerequisite for academic development and excellence - the academic profession.

SUPERMODEL MOMENT: Those who have seen paparazzi photos of Stephanie Seymour recently frolicking on the beach in St. Barth's know she still hasn't lost that supermodel magic. Those who didn't, however, can now turn to Jason Wu's spring ads for proof. Wu cast Seymour for his spring campaign, which, for the first time, was shot by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. The striking images, taken at legendary eatery La Grenouille, capture the spirit of the designer's spring clothes.
"I wanted to cast a strong woman with definite sex appeal for my spring collection which was partly inspired by Helmut Newton's provocative photographs," Wu said. "Stephanie came to mind as the perfect muse for this collection and the fact that she has worked with Newton just made perfect sense."
Seymour admires the designer equally much. "He looks like a 20-year-old FIT student, but has the skill of a great couturier of the past," she said.
The campaign will run in spring editions of Love Magazine, Tank Magazine and Self Service, as well as outdoors in lower Manhattan during fashion week.

Vision Vancouver prospects reveal views on whales in captivity at aquarium
Five of the nine candidates vying for Vision Vancouver nominations for park board want to see the Vancouver Aquarium phase out its whale and dolphin exhibits.
In separate phone interviews, Katherine Day, Catherine Evans, Brent Granby, Trish Kelly, and Coree Tull told the Georgia Straight they would prefer the aquarium and the park board work together to end the practice of cetacean captivity at the Stanley Park facility. Both Kelly and Tull asserted it's important to support the aquarium in finding a business model that works without whales.
"There are aquariums throughout the world that are not keeping whales and dolphins in captivity and still have viable business models," Kelly said.
Day and Evans noted they are against cetacean births in captivity but don't have a problem with the aquarium rescuing injured marine mammals. As a father who's taken his kids to the aquarium, Granby said he's "torn" about the issue.
"There's a growing awareness that it's unethical to keep animals in captivity, particularly the belugas and the dolphins," Granby said. "But I think, at the same time, we need to recognize the good work that's being done at the aquarium in terms of some of those sustainability issues."
The other four candidates—Graham Anderson, Naveen Girn, Mark Mitchell, and Sammie Jo Rumbaua—told the Straight they are undecided on the issue. Rumbaua said she wants to hear more from "both sides" before taking a stand.
"The aquarium clearly needs to show the benefit," Mitchell said. "I'm not sure at the moment that they are doing a good enough job of explaining and showing what the benefit is."
On Friday (June 13), the aquarium will hold the grand opening of the first phase of a three-part expansion.
In April, the park board voted to ask its staff to prepare a report on the aquarium's cetacean operations by July. The park board's agreement with the aquarium is up for review in 2015.
Vision park commissioner Trevor Loke, who has already been nominated for reelection, told the Straight he wants to meet with aquarium staff before "announcing" his opinion.
At a June 22 nomination meeting, Vision will add four candidates to its park-board slate.

Inquirer Editorial: PACs' loophole
April 13, 2011
City officials need to get rid of a loophole in Philadelphia's campaign-finance law that lets deep-pocketed donors skirt contribution limits. This legal end run nullifies the city's rules that prohibit a political-action committee from giving more than $10,600 to any individual candidate each year. The campaign-giving limits, which Mayor Nutter supported as a City Council member, are designed to minimize the potential impact on city policy by any one donor or political committee.
Rent Loophole Cut In Haddon
June 5, 1986
By Tony Frasca, Special to The Inquirer
The Haddon Township Board of Commissioners introduced an amendment Tuesday night to strengthen the township's rent-control ordinance. Officials said the amendment, if approved, would close a loophole used successfully last month by a landlord in an appeal for a hardship rent increase. Commissioner Gerald DeFelicis said the amendment would require certification by the rent-control officer that the building was inspected and found to be in compliance with township building codes no more than 90 days before the application for the hardship increase.
On deck at the FCC: Comcast sports loophole
December 16, 2009
By Bob Fernandez INQUIRER STAFF WRITER
The Federal Communications Commission will seek to close a loophole that has kept Phillies, Sixers, and Flyers games off satellite TV in Philadelphia and given a huge competitive advantage to Comcast Corp. An FCC official said the agency would circulate an order today that will close the "terrestrial loophole" that allows Comcast to withhold Comcast SportsNet Philadelphia from DirecTV and Dish Network. The five-member regulatory board could vote on the order in January. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski says the loophole should be closed to level the competitive playing field among pay-TV companies, a commission official said.
Lobbying Bill Leaves Loophole Open
March 14, 1991
By Daniel LeDuc, Inquirer Trenton Bureau
When lobbyists spend thousands of dollars on legislators, buying them football tickets, expensive dinners and trips to Florida golf resorts, nobody has to report that money as long as the lawmakers and lobbyists don't "expressly" discuss pending legislation. That loophole in New Jersey's lobbying law is supposed to be closed when the legislature follows a blue-ribbon ethics panel's recommendation that all the money spent earning the goodwill of legislators be publicly reported - whether or not legislation is discussed.
Loophole Lets Drivers Regain Licenses
November 24, 1988
By Mack Reed, Special to The Inquirer
Delaware motorists who refuse breath tests or blood-alcohol samples automatically lose their driver's licenses for a year. It's the law. Yet about 30 percent of Delawareans arrested for drunken driving now drive straight through a legal loophole and back onto the road, months before they should be allowed, according to Frank Carver, chairman of a state task force that is revising the law. The loophole exists in part of the 1982 drunken-driving law...
One Reader's View The lawyer loophole
September 2, 2008
Your editorial "Flawed law" (Aug. 27) highlighted several problems with Pennsylvania's gaming law. In particular, it hit one of our most serious flaws in state government as a whole: the loophole that allows lawyers to sidestep the revolving-door ban from state employment to private industry and back again. This issue has plagued us since the Supreme Court decision in Gmerek v. State Ethics Commission, which held that the court has the "exclusive authority to regulate the practice of law. " Attacking the Lobbyist Registration Law, the plaintiff challenged the authority of the State Ethics Commission to regulate the conduct of lobbyists who happened to be lawyers.
Bill eliminating stalking, harassment loophole dies
October 19, 2014
BY JULIE SHAW, Daily News Staff Writer email@example.com, 215-854-2592
A BILL to eliminate a little-known carve-out in state law that allows a person in a labor dispute to stalk, harass or threaten another person in the dispute is expected to die Monday when the House concludes voting this session. The House is not planning to vote on a Senate-amended version of House Bill 1154 during its final voting day. State Rep. Ron Miller, R-York, who sponsored the bill, and others have had concerns about the Senate-amended bill. Yesterday, he said it's "unfortunate" that the bill will die. "There should not be a loophole in the law. There should not be an exemption.
Maple Shade Eliminates Loophole In Drinking Law
October 2, 1986
By John McDonough, Special to The Inquirer
The Maple Shade Township Council last night unanimously adopted an ordinance to strengthen a law prohibiting the drinking of alcoholic beverages in public. Mayor Joseph P. Dugan said the ordinance, an amendment to the township code, would deter drinking in parking lots, which he said was a problem. "Young people have been drinking beer into the wee hours of the morning and leaving (the beer cans) there for someone else to pick up," Dugan said. The new ordinance eliminated a loophole in the township code.
Labor Gets Low-wage Loophole Closed
June 16, 1999
by Mark McDonald , Daily News Staff Writer
Organized labor flexed its considerable muscle yesterday and showed why it's still formidable at hardball lobbying when City Council gave initial approval to a bill that would close a loophole used by building contractors to evade prevailing wage laws. The bill, sponsored by Councilmen James Kenney and Richard Mariano, targeted agencies like the Office of Housing and Community Development and the Philadelphia Industrial Development Corporation that use a mixture of public funds but often work with private companies.
A Council Bill Aimed At Closing Condo Loophole
January 26, 1990
By Idris M. Diaz, Inquirer Staff Writer
City Councilman John F. Street yesterday introduced legislation aimed at closing a loophole in a 1988 law that could permit buyers of certain upscale condominium developments to escape millions in real estate tax payments. Intended exclusively for owners of units at the Rittenhouse condominium- hotel, the legislation, which granted a five-year tax break to condo buyers at the development, has been found by local tax assessors to apply to three other new luxury developments in the city.

Pa. legislature closes drunken-driving loopholes
October 18, 2014
By Dylan Purcell and Mark Fazlollah, Inquirer Staff Writers
The Pennsylvania Senate unanimously passed legislation Thursday to close a loophole that for years has let repeat drunken drivers legally stay behind the wheel. The Pennsylvania District Attorneys Association applauded the passage. "It is always gratifying when the legislature comes together on a bipartisan basis and takes steps to protect the public, and that is exactly what happened here," said Greg Rowe, the association's legislative liaison. Gov. Corbett's office said he would sign the bill.
Pop-up gardens take advantage of LCB loophole
July 18, 2014
WANT TO open a bar in Pennsylvania and avoid the standard six-figure price tag for a liquor license? The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board, through its extraordinarily lenient interpretation of the state liquor code, lets you do it for as little as $500. All it takes is a one-page application with none of the lengthy red tape and criminal background checks applicants normally face. The discount license is an unforeseen product of a 2012 liquor code amendment crafted by the Legislature to make it easier for licensees to cater one-day private events.
Look for loopholes in insurance policies before bad luck strikes
June 16, 2014
By Jeff Gelles, Inquirer Columnist
Hurricane season is starting slowly, and weather forecasters predict that El Niño may help spare us this year. But as Hurricane Sandy reminded our region, you never can predict when you'll be in bad luck's bull's-eye. So it's a good time to consider how to avoid another kind of harm: from a Swiss-cheese insurance policy. Some Sandy victims found, for instance, that if losses were caused by both wind and water, a term with a whale of a name - an "anti-concurrent-causation clause" - could help an insurer sidestep or lowball a claim.
License loophole: Auto-body owners wants more government oversight
March 18, 2014
IT'S LIKE A KID asking the teacher for more homework. When I heard that South Philly auto-body repairman Domenico Nigro wants more oversight and regulation by the city or state, that's what I thought. What business owner wants more government involvement in his or her affairs? The answer: One who cares about the safety of customers and other citizens. People who do heavy repair work on your car are not required to be certified to guarantee their competence. That just floors him. Nigro's wife, Victoria, is a hair stylist and is tested and certified by the state.
Critics see loopholes in PGW-sale deal
March 6, 2014
By Andrew Maykuth, Inquirer Staff Writer
The ink is barely dry on the city's agreement to sell Philadelphia Gas Works for $1.86 billion to a Connecticut energy company, and critics are already seeing loopholes in promised customer protections. Under the purchase agreement announced Monday, UIL Holdings Corp. is required to maintain a three-year rate freeze and continue PGW's low-income subsidies. But advocates who have read the 87-page agreement say it appears to contain provisions that would allow the new owners to hedge those commitments.
Bill would close loophole in N.J. pay-to-play law
August 5, 2013
By Claudia Vargas, Inquirer Staff Writer
Despite having one of the toughest pay-to-play laws in the nation to regulate the awarding of contracts in connection with campaign contributions, New Jersey also has one of the largest loopholes. Essentially, if local government agencies publicly bid a contract, pay-to-play rules, including strict donation limits, don't apply. But there's a loophole in that, too - if a local town has its own pay-to-play law - and that might be causing potential problems for Camden. Camden officials have said they did nothing wrong in appointing a politically connected auditing firm to audit the city's books this year after the firm earlier donated thousands of dollars to Mayor Dana L. Redd's reelection campaign and a related political action committee.
Tax code has too many loopholes
July 28, 2013
By Ed Rendell and Tom Ridge
We may have our differences, but we heartily agree that our tax code is overly complicated and inefficient, and that we need to start controlling our skyrocketing national debt. Structural tax reform can address both problems. To that end, Sen. Max Baucus (D., Mont.) and Rep. Dave Camp (R., Mich.) are coming to Philadelphia on Monday. They head the Senate and House committees responsible for tax policy, and both are committed to reforming the tax code. They are visiting cities across the country seeking support and input for the overhaul from taxpayers and business owners.
Conn. mother seeks to close Pa. gun loophole
July 19, 2013
By Angela Couloumbis, Inquirer Harrisburg Bureau
HARRISBURG - On a scorching summer morning in a state known for its staunch defense of the Second Amendment, the mother of one of the victims in last year's shooting at a Connecticut school came to the Capitol to talk about gun laws. Francine Lobis Wheeler, whose 6-year-old son was among 20 first graders killed at Sandy Hook Elementary in Newtown in December, said she came not as an expert on policy or law, but as a mother with a credential no parent wants: "I have lost a child to gun violence.
Background checks can save lives
June 5, 2013
By Pamela Lampitt Most New Jerseyans agree: It is absolutely critical to keep individuals suffering from serious mental illness from purchasing firearms. Stopping individuals with potentially dangerous mental illness from obtaining weapons is not just common sense; it is indispensable to protecting our communities from gun violence. But a glaring loophole in state law permits people with serious mental illnesses to easily pass through the background-check system and purchase firearms.

Hashim Yonis had plenty of friends on his way up, but most were missing in action on Friday when the onetime park and school employee was charged with felony theft by Hennepin County.
Mayor R.T. Rybak, who brought Yonis to a White House session on youth summer jobs and supported his Park Board candidacy? He was unavailable for comment, an aide said.
Superintendent Bernadeia Johnson, who awarded Yonis one of her commemorative coins after the White House visit, then cut him loose as a school employee last Tuesday? The district didn't make her available for comment.
Mohamud Noor, who served as treasurer for the campaign committee for the Yonis park campaign? He said that his position as a school board member who will review the firing of Yonis inihbits his ability to comment. "I'm trying to run away from it," said Noor, who is seeking DFL endorsement for the House seat now held by Phyllis Kahn. "I wish this was untrue."
Friday probably wasn't the most auspicious day then for a laudatory article about Noor penned by Yonis to be posted in the Mogadishu Times. There was no mention that Noor was treasurer for Yonis.
Yonis was charged for allegedly keeping from the Park Board payments he collected for soccer field rentals at Currie Park from an adult soccer team.

Tuesday Supper Plans?
Find a Conversation
|Tue, 10-23-2012 - 8:15am
What's on the menu tonight?
Sunday, on the way back from our weekend getaway, I planned my menu and made the grocery list. When I got home, my hubby unpacked his truck and I drove to the grocery store. I was afraid if I went in to sit down I would put off getting them. I knew I was going to have to go to the funeral home one night early this week so I planned to cook some Koegel's Vienna's on my grill pan. We will have those with a packaged macaroni deal (Cheesy Bacon Macaroni) I bought made by Knorr.
Danny's grandmother passed away Saturday. I know the funeral home is going to be packed! She turned 100 back in July... she was a wonderful lady and the matriarch of the church I grew up in. Her and her husband came here from Ohio back in the 40's and started 4 or 5 churches in our area.
She was a very wise woman and gave wonderful counsel to whoever was lucky enough to receive it. All we had to do was ask and she would take us under her wing, literally, and prayed right there and then with us. She lived on her own until about 8 years ago when she moved in with her son & DIL (her son had a stroke about the same time so her DIL had to care for both of them). Whenever I spoke with her, all she talked about was wanting to go to Heaven. Now she has her wish...
Sorry to get all sentimental in the Supper Thread...

No idea. Jeff is taking me out. I have been all over him for never wanting to go anywhere but one of two places. I told him we had to go to some place we have never been, or haven't been in a while. He's not happy about that. Talk about not liking change...

GET tuition program may not be such a bargainon October 31, 2013 @ 11:19 am (Updated: 11:19 am - 11/1/13 )
Parents might be wondering if Washington's prepaid college tuition program is still a bargain.
The long term value of the Guaranteed Education Tuition [GET] program is not such an easy calculation ever since the cost of in-state tuition soared a few years ago. It depends on the age of your children right now and unknown factors, such as inflation and the cost of tuition down the road.
Washington's prepaid tuition program opens to new investors Friday, Nov. 1.
Experts say if you invest now, it would take six years, possibly longer, for your investment to essentially break even.
That means it's a much better deal for parents of younger children, and less so for parents of children who are 13 or older, said Rachele Cawaring Bouchand, director of financial planning at Clark Nuber P.S. in Bellevue.
That's because young children will see many more years of tuition increases before they enroll in college.
Of course, investment returns are not the only or even the primary reason for putting money into the GET program.
Investors are guaranteed that no matter what happens to the stock market or state tuition, they will be able to pay for an academic year of tuition and mandatory fees at the state's most expensive college or university with 100 GET units. Tuition and fees at less expensive schools cost fewer units and housing is extra.
At today's price of $172 per tuition unit, tuition at the University of Washington or Washington State University would have to reach $17,200 for investors to break even. The current tuition and mandatory fees is about $12,000.
If your child is a preschooler, it's hard to beat the return on investment from putting their college money into a GET account, Bouchand said. Her analysis is based on expectations that tuition increases will average 8 percent a year over the next decade or so.
Parents of a baby would need to invest about $7,500 a year for the next 18 years and earn a 5.9 percent annual rate of return on that investment to beat the results of buying 400 GET units at the current price, which would add up to $68,800, Bouchand said.
If your kids are already in elementary school, parents may be able to beat the GET return with some luck and a 3 percent a year return on their investments. The "break even" point for the GET program, in Bouchand's opinion, is age 13. Investments at that age are no longer a good investment.
Bouchand's analysis jibes with that of GET program director Betty Lochner, who said parents whose children are six years away from college can still put their money in the GET program and come out ahead.
"The best time to invest is age 6 or under," she emphasized.
Parents of high school students should find another way to save, Lochner added.
Other financial advisers draw the line earlier. Some don't recommend GET investment past kindergarten because they believe other investments, such as other 529 college savings plans that are invested in the stock market, are likely to have bigger payoffs.
Troy Sapp, financial planner with Commence Financial Planning in Tacoma, said he wouldn't recommend GET investments for anyone but families with preschoolers.
"The GET program certainly isn't as attractive as it once was," Sapp said in an email. "But that said, I still think it's quite attractive for very young children."

Mohd Rasdi, Roslina (2009) Vocabulary Learning and Teaching through Student Teacher Negotiations in the Malaysian ESL Classroom. Masters thesis, Universiti Putra Malaysia.
This study was conducted with the aim of investigating how vocabulary was taught and learned in three selected Malaysian schools. Specifically, it sought to explore the extent to which negotiation between students and teachers occurs in vocabulary learning and teaching. The study is delineated into by three research questions that are concerned with the strategies used by the upper secondary teachers and students in vocabulary learning and teaching respectively; the perception of upper secondary teachers' and students' on the use and importance of student-teacher negotiation in learning and teaching vocabulary; and how negotiation between upper secondary students and teachers takes place in vocabulary learning and teaching in the Malaysian second language classroom. A basic or generic qualitative research methodology was employed to answer these three research questions. For the purpose of triangulation, data was collected through classroom observations, one-to-one semi-structured interview with the teachers, and focus group discussion (FGD) with the students. Specifically, six classroom observations were conducted to elicit the natural negotiation process between students and teachers during vocabulary learning and teaching. The English teachers from the observed classes were then interviewed to corroborate the findings of the classroom observations. Lastly, students from each observed class were selected to participate in the focused-group discussion. All collected data were either video or audio-taped, transcribed verbatim and triangulated. Reliability and validity were further ascertained through member checks, peer examination and maintenance of audit trail. The findings showed that incidental vocabulary learning and teaching (VLT) was the primary approach used by students and teachers in learning and teaching vocabulary. The classroom observations revealed that six strategies were employed in incidental VLT, one of which is student-teacher negotiation. The semi-structured interview and FGD showed that, generally, teachers and students have positive and negative perceptions towards student-teacher negotiation in VLT. The findings also showed that negotiation between upper secondary students and teachers took place under four conditions: creating an enjoyable and safe learning environment, preparing activities which were able to gain or capture the students' interest to communicate, integrating negotiation with other vocabulary learning strategies, and placing the students with the same level of English in one class. An additional finding of the study was factors that promote or inhibit negotiation in the classroom. A conclusion of the study is that student-teacher negotiation seemed to be beneficial, but is not fully implemented by teachers and students. Theoretical and pedagogical implications are noted, and recommendations for further research are also suggested.
