with stakeholders. Detailed information about conducting a needs analysis can be found at http://www.needsassessment.org [August 2011].
Knapp emphasized that it is important to have a clear articulation of the construct to be assessed: that is, the knowledge, skill, and/or behavior the stakeholders would like to have measured. The construct definition helps the test developer to determine how to measure it. She cautioned that for the skills covered in this workshop, developing a definition and operationalizing these definitions in order to produce test items can be challenging. For example, consider the variability in the definitions of critical thinking that Nathan Kuncel presented or the definitions of self-regulations that Rick Hoyle discussed. In order to develop an assessment that meets appropriate technical standards, the definition needs to be detailed and sufficiently precise to support the development of test items. Test development is less challenging when the construct is more concrete and discrete, such as specific subject-matter or job knowledge.
One of the more important issues to consider during the initial development stage, Knapp said, is whether the assessment needs to measure the skill itself or simply illustrate the skill. For instance, if the goal is to measure teamwork skills, is it necessary to observe the test takers actually performing their teamwork skills? Or is it sufficient that they simply answer questions that show they know how to collaborate with others and effectively work as a team? This is one of the issues that should be covered as part of the needs analysis.
Knapp highlighted the importance of considering which aspects of the construct can be measured by a standardized assessment and which aspects cannot. If the construct being assessed is particularly broad and the assessment cannot get at all components of it, what aspects of the construct are the most important to capture? There are always tradeoffs in assessment development, and careful prioritization of the most critical features can help with decision making about the construct. Knapp advised that once these decisions are made and the assessment is designed, the developer should be absolutely clear on which aspects of the construct are captured and which aspects are not.
Along with defining the construct, it is important to identify the context or situation in which the knowledge, skills, or behaviors are to be demonstrated. Identification of the specific way in which the construct is to be demonstrated helps to determine the type of assessment items to be used.
Determining the Item Types
As demonstrated by the examples discussed in Chapters 2, 3, and 4, there are many item types and assessment methods, ranging from

My Strawberry Girl
Okay, when I say Strawberry Girl, I immediately think of Siouxie and the Banshees and get all nostalgic for my teen years during the 80's. This cute little strawberry girl is nothing like the punk goth one in my head. I just love this totebag. It's the cutest!

Sembrado en Nueva York Restaurant Review: It's all about the taco at this Mexico City-style East Village restaurant. Chef Danny Mena, who also mans the stove at Hecho en Dumbo, takes inspiration from his days living in the Mexican capital to create some addictive delights. There are bursting-with-flavor chorizo and juicy al pastor tacos. But do yourself a favor and get a "costra": caramelized cheese acts as a tortilla, and the toppings are the same as those on the taco menu; the cheese creates added flavor and it's so good you'll wonder why this idea hasn't taken off at other taquerias in the city. Wash it all down with a mezcal margarita or three. |

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
A tank car (International Union of Railways (UIC): tank wagon) is a type of railroad car (UIC: railway car) or rolling stock designed to transport liquid and gaseous commodities.
The following major events occurred in the years noted:
Many variants exist due to the wide variety of liquids and gases transported. Tank cars can be pressurized or non-pressurized, insulated or non-insulated, and designed for single or multiple commodities. Non-pressurized cars have various fittings on the top and may have fittings on the bottom. Some of the top fittings are covered by a protective housing. Pressurized cars have a pressure plate, with all fittings, and a cylindrical protective housing at the top. Loading and unloading are done through the protective housing.
Tank cars are specialized pieces of equipment. As an example, the interior of the car may be lined with a material, such as glass, or other specialized coatings to isolate the tank contents from the tank shell. Care is taken to ensure that tank contents are compatible with tank construction.
As a result of this specialization, tank cars have generally been "one-way" cars. Other cars, like boxcars, can easily be reloaded with other goods for the return trip. Combinations of the two types were attempted, such as boxcars with fluid tanks slung beneath the floors. While the car could certainly carry a load in both directions, the limited tank size made this unsuccessful.
A large percentage of tank cars are owned by companies serviced by railroads instead of the railroads themselves. This can be verified by examining the reporting marks on the cars. These marks invariably end in X, meaning that the owner is not a common carrier.
Within the rail industry, tank cars are grouped by their type and not by the cargo carried. Food-service tank cars may be lined with stainless steel, glass, or plastic. Tank cars carrying dangerous goods are generally made of different types of steel, depending on the intended cargo and operating pressure. They may also be lined with rubber or coated with specialized coatings for tank protection or product purity purpose. The tank heads are also stronger to prevent ruptures during accidents. The whale-belly type is giving way to higher-capacity (longer), yet standard-width, AAR Plate "C", cars.
All tank cars undergo periodic inspection for damage and corrosion. Pressure relief valves are inspected at every loading. Pressurized cars are pressure-tested regularly to insure the integrity of the tank.
All tank cars operating throughout North America today feature "double shelf" AAR type "F" couplers that prevent disengaging in event of an accident or derailment. This all but eliminates the chance of couplers puncturing adjacent tank cars.
Insulated cars (which may also incorporate heating or refrigeration systems) are used when the contents must be kept at a certain temperature. For example, the Linde tank car depicted below[which?] carries liquefied argon. Cars designed for multiple commodities are constructed of two or more tanks (compartments). Each compartment must have separate fittings. The lower capacity and added complexity of multicompartment cars means that they make up a small percentage of the tank car inventory.
Outside of North America, tank cars are also known as tank wagons or tanker wagons. In the United Kingdom tank wagons were traditionally four-wheel vehicles. Some long-wheelbase four-wheelers are still in use but bogie vehicles are now used as well.

The DOT-111 tank car, which are designed to carry liquids, such as denatured fuel ethanol, is built to a US standard. The design has been criticized on safety grounds.[1] The train in the Lac-Mégantic derailment of 2013 was made up of 72 of these cars.[2]
DOT-112 tank cars are used in North America to carry pressurized gases.
DOT-114 tank cars are used in North America to carry pressurized gases.
A milk car is a specialized type of tank car designed to carry raw milk between farms, creameries, and processing plants.
Milk is now commonly chilled, before loading, and transported in a glass-lined tank car. Such tank cars are often placarded as "Food service use only".
Tank cars of this type are designed to carry cryogenic liquid Hydrogen (LH2). North American cars are classified as DOT113, AAR204W, and AAR204XT[3]
A pickle car was a specialized type of tank car designed to carry pickles. This car consisted of several wooden or metal vats (typically three or four) and was often roofed. Pickles which are preserved in salt brine were loaded through hatches in the roof.
A tank container, also known as ISO tank, is a specialized type of container designed to carry bulk liquids, such as chemicals, liquid hydrogen, gases and foodgrade products. Both hazardous and non hazardous products can be shipped in tank containers. A standard tank container is 20 feet (6.10 m) long, 8 feet (2.44 m) high and 8 feet (2.44 m) wide. The tank, which is made from stainless steel, is held within a box-shaped frame with the same shape as an intermodal container. This allows it to be carried on multiple modes of transport, such as truck, rail and ship.
A torpedo car or bottle car is a type of railroad car used in steel mills to haul molten pig iron from the blast furnace to begin the process of primary steelmaking.
The thermally-insulated vessel is mounted on trunnions, and designed to endure extremely high temperatures, as well as keeping the metal in a molten state over extended periods of time. The vessel can be pivoted along its longitudinal axis to empty the pig iron into a furnace (such as a basic oxygen furnace) or crucible. The name is derived from the vessel's resemblance to a torpedo.
A vinegar car is a specialized type of tank car designed to transport vinegar. The largest such car built was built by Morrison Railway Supply Corporation in 1968. The car's underframe included all of modern facets of freight car design including roller bearing trucks and cushioning devices built by FreightMaster, while the tank that rode on it, made of Douglas Fir, had a capacity of 17,100 US gallons (65 m3; 14,200 imp gal). The car, in what has been called 'the largest wooden tank car ever built', took 18 months to build.
Vinegar is now moved in ordinary tank cars lined with glass, plastic, or alloy steel.[4]
In the early 1960s, the Union Tank Car Company) introduced a series of "whale belly" tank cars which offered increased capacity. These cars carried from 33,000 US gallons (120 m3; 27,000 imp gal) in CSOX #31084[5] to as much as 63,000 US gallons (240 m3; 52,000 imp gal) in GATX #96500, which had been conceived as a 'rolling experiment' of sorts. The largest tank car ever placed into regular service, UTLX #83699, was rated at 50,000 US gallons (190 m3; 42,000 imp gal). It first hit the rails in 1963, remained in service for over twenty years, and is now on display at the Museum of Transportation in Saint Louis, Missouri. This behemoth is 89 feet (27.1 m) in length, weighs 175,000 lb (79,400 kg) empty, and rides on four two-axle trucks to distribute the additional weight. It was used to transport such diverse substances as liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and anhydrous ammonia.
Where AAR couplers are fitted, the type "F" coupler is preferred as these are less likely to become separated in a derailment and become a puncture hazard for other tank cars. The type "F" coupler has shelves over and under the coupler that prevent the coupler sliding out of position after a derailment.[citation needed]
In addition, some types of tank cars have a second end plate visible from the exterior, to further avoid end punctures.
It is also preferable if each tap (valve) is recessed within the body of the tank so as to present a reduced knock-off hazard during a derailment.[citation needed]
Tank cars have been involved in many rail disasters, including the Lac-Mégantic derailment in Quebec in 2013, the Nishapur train disaster in Iran in 2004, and the Viareggio train derailment in Italy in 2009.

Whenever I hear the phrase "financial crisis" used in the past tense, as in, "Boy, that sure was some financial crisis," I try and remind the speaker, in as gentle a manner as possible, that the financial crisis is far from over: that it is, in fact, alive and well. Case in point: allegations that Deutsche Bank (NYSE: DB ) may have hidden up to $12 billion dollars in paper losses from 2007 to 2009 suddenly exploding into the news on Wednesday.
Mark to whatsit?
Financial Times is reporting that three former Deutsche employees, all from the bank's U.S. operations, filed complaints with the Securities and Exchange Commission at different times and independent of each other, in 2010 and 2011.
These alleged hidden losses would have been the result of traders intentionally misreporting a massive derivatives position the bank had built up. Had the position been recorded in the proper mark-to-market fashion, so the thinking goes, the losses (as little as $4 billion or as much as $12 billion) might have resulted in the bank being bailed out by the government, as so many other banks were in the worst days of the crisis.
Tis the season for suing banks
Deutsche is claiming that the complaints are old, that they were made public in 2011, and that they are "wholly unfounded." Deutsche is the world's biggest bank by assets, is Germany's flagship bank, and -- not having been bailed out by the state -- has retained a certain coolness and cachet through bad times that it doesn't want to lose to what it considers slanderous old news.
One of the three whistleblowers is currently suing Deutsche for wrongful dismissal, and these allegations have resurface as a result of that. But nothing's come out that U.S. regulators are about to file suit against Deutsche. It's not out of the question, however. Tis the season, for certain. JPMorgan Chase (NYSE: JPM ) and Bank of America (NYSE: BAC ) have both found themselves in regulators' gun sights this fall alone. With $1.93 trillion in cash on its balance sheet, Deutsche would survive all but the most outrageous fine levied in the event of a lawsuit, but could certainly do without it.

MoreGenerally speaking, finding banks and ATMs isn't difficult, especially in towns. Most main bank branches close at 4 pm, with many smaller branches, often located in shopping malls and department stores, remaining open into the evening. Remember that the farther out from civilization you get, the fewer ATMs you'll find. Don't expect to withdraw money outside a national park or in a tribal village. It's probably best if you exchange the money you want before leaving Bangkok.

Motivate me Monday #147
Hello everyone! How was your week? Mine has been crazy (like usual). Sickness came right after Halloween and still hasn't left yet, so we really haven't gotten much done. Hopefully we will get better because I have a lot to do this week!
I hope that everyone had a great Halloween! I can't believe that November is already here, wow.
Here are a few links that really caught my eye from last week. Thanks to everyone who linked up!

Analysis of a mode-locked ring laser: chirped-solitary-pulse solutions
JOSA B, Vol. 2, Issue 4, pp. 680-686 (1985)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (934 KB)
We present measurements on mode-locked ring dye lasers that demonstrate the role of self-phase modulation in the saturable absorber dye. The resulting bandwidth increase plays an essential role in ultrashort pulse generation, because it leads to intracavity pulse compression in the presence of normally dispersive components. The role of various intracavity components (glass, coatings) in intracavity compression is analyzed. As opposed to extracavity compression, measurements of pulse amplitude and phase show that the nonlinear phase modulation can be completely compensated. The interaction of the light pulse with the absorber is analyzed using Maxwell–Bloch equations. Next, we find the steady-state solution for the problem of pulse propagation through an infinite periodic medium containing all the essential intracavity elements (bandwidth-limiting filter, amplifier, absorber, dispersive component). The condition that the solitary pulses be unchirped enables us to determine the optimum intracavity dispersion, which, in agreement with the experimental data, leads to the shortest pulses.

Enhanced angular tolerance of resonant waveguide grating reflectors |
Optics Letters, Vol. 36, Issue 4, pp. 537-539 (2011)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (460 KB)
We introduce an approach to enhance the angular tolerance of resonant waveguide gratings by stacking two resonant structures on top of each other. It is shown that reflectivities close to unity can be retrieved over the entire angular spectrum by a double T-shaped grating configuration. Although a combination of silicon as the high-index and diamond as the low-index material is considered, the principles of our new approach can also be used to realize monolithic silicon structures with similar properties. We illustrate that the functionality of the device can be understood by a decomposition into separated elements. Our approach might have compelling applications as new diffractive-reflective optical components with low-coating thermal noise in the field of high-precision metrology.

While the mobile broadband market has seen plenty of improvement in its pricing, the actual dongles offered by the telcos have remained largely uninspiring - until now...
Causing some relief for those still gutted that the Sony Ericsson GPS & microSD dongle never saw the light of day on a major network is Vodafone which is launching the 'USB Stick Pro'.
Taking a couple of cues from SE's anonymous model, the USB Stick Pro is HSDPA (up to 7.2Mbit) and HSUPA (uploading up to 2Mbit) compatible and comes with a space saving retractable USB connector and integrated 4GB microSD card meaning it can act as your memory key as well. Happy?
Yep, so is Vodafone which is celebrating the USB Stick Pro's arrival with a limited time deal which will see it offer a mobile broadband 3GB per month plan for just £10pm for the first three months of a two year deal - a £5pm saving over its standard price. Likewise the £20pm 5GB per month package will be cut to £15pm under the same terms. You'll get the USB Stick Pro free on all 24 and 18 month 5GB per month plans while it will cost just £29pm on all 12 month plans and £49 on rolling 30 day deals.
Beginning of the end of standalone memory keys? Maybe not, but this certainly hasn't extended their life expectancy...

I actually think I remember reading an Entertainment Weekly article about Tarantino where he said he would like to make Kill Bill 3 cept it would star Vernita Greens daughter when she was older. I also believe I remember reading that it would be like 10 - 15 years before it would even be made.

Interesting! Did it mention any specifics on whether or not Quentin had ideas for Beatrix's daughter...maybe her being an assassin??? Because if not, that's an idea I've been slowly formulating!Originally Posted by Meiwaku
Haha, I oughta email that one to Quentin >___x;;
...Off topic, but I noticed that Quentin was somewhat gesticulative and flamboyant on the DVD interview ~
A coworker at the retail store I work at had the same question ~ if anyone knows could they let me know?
VERY generally (as to not offend anyone):
"Is Quentin Tarantino attracted to women?"

All Right!! Kill Bill Vol. 3!! Whoot! ^_^ Those movies were soo frickn' awesome!! But... if they're waiting for that little girl to grow up.......then we're gonna have to wait a good amount of time *sigh*...dammit...just have someone else who's already grown up play the part!! ah well......ooo O.O....that cool half french/half japanese lady is gonna be a main character??! Awesomeness!! lol
I think anything involving Tarantino at the moment is just speculation. I think he has some ideas but hasnt committed to anything yet. I mean a few months back I heard something about a war movie with Adam Sandler called Inglorious Bastards, what up with that?
yeah that is a long time,I have the soundtrack.
"I let all that kind of blood away" Thanks Viper
