News: Amazon Kindle Tablet: Android Tablet or eReader on Steroids?
Amazon is expected to unveil its Kindle Tablet at a press event in New York on Wednesday. From what we know so far about the device, it seems like it might be the first tablet rival capable of really competing with the Apple iPad. Based on the size and use of the Kindle brand, though, it is reasonable to wonder whether the Kindle Tablet is a true tablet PC, or just a Kindle with some tablet features.

Patterns of Organization:
As you organize your main points, keep your "big picture" goal in mind. Are you trying to inform your listeners about an issue? Or trying to persuade them to share your opinion? Perhaps you are commemorating an event?
Different goals call for different narrative structures and you may need to try a few models before you find one that suits. To aid your trial-and-error process, refer to the list of structural models in the previous chapter for ideas. If you haven't looked at these recently, it may be helpful to review "Ordering Main Points" before reading on. The following provides examples of some of these in action.
An informative speech should educate the audience about its topic. These speeches are not argumentative—they describe, announce, or explain their subject without making a case or taking sides.
Catering to the audience's needs is important in any speech, but it is crucial in an informative speech. This type of speech relies on the value of the information itself, without the added appeal of a conversion experience or an emotional catharsis. Make sure your information will be useful and interesting to your audience!
Here are some sample topic statements that illustrate different approaches to framing an informative speech:
Cause and Effect
- Consumers listed rising gas prices and falling prices for electric vehicles as the main reasons behind their new interest in electric cars.
Compare and Contrast
- Studies have found major demographic differences between consumers who would consider buying electric cars and those who would not, but both groups still share the same concerns.
- Market research shows that consumers weigh three main issues when they consider buying an electric car: purchase price, convenience, and long-term cost savings.
- The market for electric cars has evolved significantly in the years between its invention in the late nineteenth century and the mass-production of electric cars today.
- Belgian inventor, Camille Jenatzy, combined solid engineering skills with a flair for publicity stunts to build a successful electric vehicle company in the 1890s.
A persuasive speech should make a convincing case for its position. While some are intended to win passive agreement from the audience, others encourage immediate action. For example, a speech arguing that drug-resistant bacteria strains are a serious problem seeks only passive agreement. However, if the speech went one step further and urged listeners to reduce their own consumption of antibiotics, it would belong to the second category.
If you want your audience to do something, end your speech with a call to action and explain how your listeners could help the cause.
These thesis statements about antibiotic-resistant bacteria illustrate different structural models for persuasive speaking:
Cause and Effect
- The U.S. industry standard of giving daily antibiotics to healthy livestock promotes the creation of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- Dangerous bacteria are adapting to resist antibiotics on under-regulated U.S. farms. The FDA should scrap its useless "voluntary guidelines" for agribusiness and impose legally-binding restrictions on the practice of feeding antibiotics to healthy animals.
Compare and Contrast
- The European Union banned the routine feeding of antibiotics to livestock as part of its quest to fight antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Compared to the strict regulations in other industrialized nations, the U.S. policy of trusting agri-businesses to regulate themselves seems outdated and irresponsible.
- The case for legally-binding restrictions on agricultural consumption of antibiotics should be evaluated in terms of its costs, benefits, and practical feasibility.
- The European Union banned the practice of routinely feeding antibiotics to healthy livestock in 2004. Since then, calls for similar legislation in the U.S. have become increasingly urgent as new studies warn of public health risks from antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
- Dr. Marc Sprenger of the European Centre for Disease Control and Prevention draws on his experience as a doctor and epidemiologist to combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
A commemorative speech should honor, celebrate, or remember its subject. These sample statements of purpose memorialize different aspects of the Titanic:
Cause and Effect
- The sinking of the Titanic inspired a new wave of maritime safety laws. My panel will discuss the life-saving provisions we owe to that tragedy.
Compare and Contrast
- The passenger carrier Lusitania sank only three years after the Titanic and claimed nearly as many lives. However, the legend of the Titanic overshadows the Lusitania's story. When I compare these two tragedies, I find myself asking—how different are they, really?
- Are we justified in our nostalgia for a bygone era of chivalry? Behavioral economists have taken one step toward answering this question, using data from the Titanic and the Lusitania to study social norms in disaster responses. How many men actually gave up lifeboat seats to women and children? I will address these questions by analyzing the effects of age, gender, ticket class, and family structure on an individual's chance of surviving one of these disasters.
- After the Titanic sank in 1912, the White Star Line spent four years in arbitration before reaching a deal to cover 16 million in legal claims with a settlement of 664,000. Let's give that controversial legal battle a retrial from beginning to end to see if the settlement is actually a fair outcome.
- Tonight, we are gathered to celebrate Eva Hart, who was only seven years old when she sat on a lifeboat watching the Titanic sink into the sea with her father on board. The experience left her with terrible nightmares, but she overcame her fears and lived a full life as a singer, politician, and magistrate.
While informative speeches explain, educate and describe; persuasive speeches raise the stakes by using information to influence the audience; commemorative speeches assume a shared emotional connection to the subject.

I'd like to get off the grid by installing a windmill to produce electricity. Do you have any recommendations? -Andrea
Hi Andrea,
There have been a lot of exciting innovations in recent years in both solar and wind power to generate electricity for your home. Unfortunately, most of the solar options are still too expensive at present to justify going totally off the grid, so I think you're choice for wind power is a good one, though wind turbines are pretty costly, too.
Windmills have the advantage of being active both night and day, as long as the wind blows, so make sure you live in an area that has consistent winds before considering installing one. For a personal take on what it's like to live off the power grid using a wind turbine and solar panels, check out our article on Living Off the Grid.
The wind generator I've seen that I like the best is the WindTronics wind turbine from Honeywell. I've seen this one in action, and it's truly impressive. What really sets the WindTronics wind turbine apart is that it has a start up speed as low as 1/2-mile-per-hour. The WindTronics wind turbine costs close to $6,500 and will generate up to 1,500 kWh per year.
Also, make sure you take advantage of the energy efficiency tax credits for homeowners, which can provide a 30% federal income tax credit if you install an approved wind or solar power system before 2017.
Good luck with your project,

Think Outside: Royal Building Products' Exterior Portfolio® Brand Launches Its Expanded Dream Designer® Visualization Tool
COLUMBUS, Ohio,
May 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Royal Building Products, a category leader in high-quality exterior products, has launched a new website for its Exterior Portfolio® brand (
www.ExteriorPortfolio.com) that features the updated and expanded custom exterior design tool, Dream Designer®. Dream Designer helps homeowners dream, create and see what multiple new exterior elements look like on their home, and then connect with a contractor to help bring to life their exterior design vision.
(Photo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120516/CL08642 )
"At Exterior Portfolio, we know that trim, siding, color, doors and windows can all work together to create beautiful exterior designs," said Doug Kissick, director of marketing – exteriors for Royal Building Products. "Dream Designer helps homeowners mix exterior colors, styles and textures in engaging ways that complement the feel of their home and the style of their neighborhood."
Unlike other design tools that only allow the addition of one color in a single feature, Dream Designer allows consumers to change and to design several exterior design features at once, creating a more vibrant design environment and an opportunity to "try it before you buy it," Kissick said.
The new website also offers practical advice for consumers about exterior design, color palettes and selection, as well as a YouTube tutorial on how to use Dream Designer. Other elements include:- Smart Styles Color Palettes: Each of the pre-formatted Dream Designer homes comes with specially selected products and colors from the Smart Styles Color Selector. Consumers can access established color palettes as a starting point and then explore more personalized design preferences.
- Exterior Portfolio Design Blog and Newsletter: The new website expands the exterior design conversation and features consumer design articles, content and blog posts.
- Dream Designer Board and Personalized Design Kit: Once visitors have finished designing their perfect home exterior, they can order quality designer samples. For just $20, users will receive a 2-by-2-foot board with high-resolution images of the products selected, features and benefits of each, and before-and-after images of the home. Users also will receive actual cut samples of the products they chose, and everything ships within two business days, creating a high-design and low-anxiety selection process.

Product Details
Member of: Organized Konfusion Featuring: C.J.; Presto (GBG) Producers: Madlib; Prince Po (of Organized Konfusion) SummaryPrince Po, the wirey, aggressive more gruff half of the beloved Hip Hop duo Organized Konfusion returns with the first offering off his sophomore solo opus entitled "Pretty Black". Prince, who grew up in the notorious Southside Jamaica projects in Queens, New York, and long-time friend Troy Jamerson, aka Pharoahe Monch, partnered up to form an earlier incarnation of Organized, Simply 2 Positive, eventually signing to Hollywood Records in 1990. Prince and Monch only saw three albums as a team, closing out their final effort together, "The Equinox", for Priority Records in 1997. Each went on to have successful solo careers and Prince Po found he had a loyal following abroad. He continues to tour in Japan and Europe extensively. "Holla" produced by Po himself and the Madlib neck snapper "Mecheti Lightspeed" serve as the perfect intro to what "Pretty Black" will offer, boasting the talents of Madlib, Large Professor, 2Mex, Rockwilder and others. |

Seoul of the city: Korean capital offers mix of old and new
- Details
- Published Date
- Written by Ramya Krishna - Town Crier Editorial Intern
Seoul, South Korea, is a study in contrasts. Having grown quickly, the city is a mix of old and new.
Using public transportation, visitors can travel from the 531-year-old Changgyeonggung Palace to the 10-year-old Cheonggyecheon public recreation space and stream in 20 minutes. The palace, a large pavilion surrounded by columns, is famous for its early Joseon architecture. Visitors can watch the changing of the guard. The stream, carved from a former highway, is in the center of town and boasts a busy pedestrian bridge above.
The Maine course: Uncovering a Los Altos connection

We recently returned from a trip to Maine, where we heard a compelling human-interest story with a Los Altos connection.
Our trip included a wonderful stopover at the distinctive and picturesque Pineland Farms in New Gloucester, which prompted us to research the following article.

United Western Front
The West's political leaders show a common purpose.
For newspaper editors who believe that governments can wave a wand and stop a global financial panic, the weekend effort by the G-7 finance ministers will be a disappointment. For everyone else, it should be considered progress.
The causes of the Great Depression are a source of historical dispute, but most economists agree that its depth and persistence were amplified by the lack of international cooperation. Nations acted in what they thought was their own self-interest but often in ways that harmed others. This was the era that gave rise to the phrase "beggar-thy-neighbor," with competitive currency devaluations and other protectionism.
So it was welcome to see the ministers lined up behind President Bush on Saturday in what amounted to a united front. "As our nations carry out this plan, we must make sure the actions of one do not contradict or undermine the actions of another," Mr. Bush said. "In an interconnected world, no nation will gain by driving down the fortunes of another."
The ministers laid out five principles that the governments can implement individually, albeit in coordinated fashion. Europe got started on the effort Sunday by agreeing to specific steps, such as injecting public capital into banks under siege to prevent domino-like failures. The skill with which this is carried out will matter a lot, but investors should be pleased that the West's political leaders are showing a common purpose.

Arc Developments created a 3D game world called Reality3 for this simulation, licensed around one of Britain's top players. There are two courses, plus a hidden 9-hole course on Mars with reduced gravity, with match play and stroke play options against one of 8 varied-difficulty computer players.The control system is quite unusual, as the strength of the shot is chosen before you start the swing, but you have to click within a range to activate the shot, and this range is narrower if your shot is intended to be more powerful. An extra click can be made to add wrist snap, which increases the shot's power. The wind calculation is more complicated than most games of the era, and the rough is harder to play out of than usual, as you can't make slight stance adjustments easily.

How Times Have Changed How times have changed, as I remember As a boy I would be fascinated for hours Playing records on the old wind up gramophone And twiddling the knobs of my Grandfather's Radio receiver, with it's large valves glowing And giving out hums and squeals as I turned The dial backwards and forwards. As a teenager, I grew up watching television And listening to my stereogram, playing all the Latest songs of the time. In my adult years, I would watch images from The new colour television and quadraphonics Stereo, which was the latest thing around. I am now middle age, with all this behind me As technology has changed, with computers, Video machines and compact disk players; How I preferred the earlier times, where life Was a lot more simpler place to be.

The City Commission has asked the Downtown Improvement District (DID) board to take a position on the installation of parking meters downtown. But before board members decide whether to support installation, they want to hear from the district's property owners.
The DID is inviting those property owners to its Aug. 11 meeting to provide input.
The city is planning to install parking meters along Main Street and several of its side streets as early as this fall. The project had been considered a done deal for the past year, but last month two commissioners, Kelly Kirschner and Terry Turner, suggested that the installation be put on hold because of the current economic conditions.
The commission is scheduled to make a final decision on parking meters Aug. 17 is seeking the DID's opinion before that date.

As American forces blasted mountain hideouts in the Tora Bora region of eastern Afghanistan in December 2001, hundreds of Al Qaeda soldiers hastily fled, crossing over unguarded mountain trails and seemingly disappearing into thin air. FRONTLINE asked longtime producer Martin Smith to see what he could find out about these Al Qaeda fighters: where they were hiding, who offered them sanctuary, and whether they were regrouping to plan more attacks.
On Aug. 12, Smith, his co-producer Marcela Gaviria, and cameraman Scott Anger set out on a two-month journey that took them from London to the Gulf of Oman, into the border regions and teeming cities of Pakistan and finally to Saudi Arabia -- bin Laden's homeland -- and Yemen. The documentary "In Search of Al Qaeda" is the story of this journey.
Follow the reporters' progress by clicking on an area name on the map -- starting with London -- to explore more detailed maps of the regions they visited, read their e-mail dispatches from the field, see slideshows of photographs they took along the way, and watch video excerpts from the documentary.
(You'll need a browser that supports frames in order to view this map.)
+ Martin Smith
A longtime, award-winning FRONTLINE producer, Martin Smith produced "Hunting bin Laden" -- first broadcast in 1999, then updated and rebroadcast immediately after Sept. 11. His other recent FRONTLINE reports have included "Saudi Time Bomb?," "Looking for Answers," and "Dot Con."
+ Marcela Gaviria
For over a decade Gaviria has field produced documentaries for PBS, BBC, National Geographic, and CBS News. Currently working with Martin Smith on FRONTLINE programs, they co-produced "Medicating Kids" and she field produced two post-9/11 reports: "Looking for Answers" and "Saudi Time Bomb?"
+ Scott Anger
A freelance journalist and independent documentary producer with more than 15 years experience, Scott Anger photographed, field produced and was an additional editor on "In Search of Al Qaeda." He previously teamed up with FRONTLINE producer Martin Smith on "Saudi Time Bomb?" -- a film about the growing tensions between the U.S. and its Arabian ally after Sept. 11. Anger's work has been broadcast on PBS, NPR, BBC, Australian Broadcasting and VOA.

Australia central bank cuts interest rate to record low 3%
SYDNEY (AFP) - Australia's central bank on Tuesday cut the official interest rate to a record low of 3.0 per cent, a level not seen since the financial crisis as China's slowdown squeezes the mining industry.
Reserve Bank of Australia governor Glenn Stevens said ongoing troubles in Europe and the United States were overshadowing global growth prospects, with risks seen to the downside and local spending "relatively subdued" as a result.
"The board judged at today's meeting that a further easing in the stance of monetary policy was appropriate now," said Mr Stevens following the bank's monthly rates meeting. "This will help to foster sustainable growth in demand and inflation outcomes consistent with the target over time."
Mr Stevens said Chinese growth looked to have stabilised but Asia was lagging as a result of its slowdown, with prices for Australia's key commodities "significantly lower", reducing the value of its exports by about 15 percent.

Corsair Vengeance 2000 wireless headset review -
Here we have the dongle (wireless USB adapter), 1.5m USB extension cable and 1.5m USB charging cable. You charge the headphones by connecting them with the small USB B connector. We got roughly 9 hours on one battery charge, that is super long.
You can place the wireless USB adapter into the extension cable or just in your PC. The wireless range is really good, we got roughly 9-10 meters out of it. Even at the floor below (through concrete) in most spots we still had good reception. Of course USB wireless also has a downside, you can't connect these headphones to your HIFI equipment at all -- so the headset is purely for usage with your PC.
So let's get into the nitty gritty, the V2000 kit is the real deal alright, very beefy headphones, I mean check out all that metal! Well, OK, it's a metal foil over the plastic, but it's an interesting design nonetheless.
The Vengeance 2000 is almost your typical big headset, circumaural ear coupling, nicely padded headband, sealed back earcups, but these have the exception of (proclaimed 7.1) surround sound courtesy of Xear from C-Media. We'll get into it later as really... this is a stereo headset with a virtualized surround layer on top of it to create the illusion of 7.1 surround.
So yes, the Vengeance 2000 is a standard stereo headset with two 50mm drivers, but the headset uses Xear from C-Media software to emulate surround sound -- that's a big difference. The big thing here is that software surround is a lot less complicated than stuffing a pair of headphones with 8 speakers, and yet still doesn't quite work as well.

A massive thanks to Keith on the desk for getting us into a room early after we had been left stranded in JFK by American Airlines after 19 hours. Also a massive thank you to Kirk who served us in the bar area. A credit to the Hilton and raised the bar for how to treat customers. If ever Hilton needed a benchmark for service then Kirk should be it.
REFER TO LETTER OF COMPLAINT; poor handling of hotel's own mistake
Bed including pillows were more then comfortable, free wifi, treatment for Hilton hhonors members, bellhop service was great and frontdesk was very polite and knowledgeable
Room service was terrible, we had to go down 9 floors just to get a bottle of wine opened
Location Good, safe place to stay.
Hallway light at hallway light was out. The bedroom light fixture had two bulbs so I placed it in the hallway light fixture.
Here room is a bit ild needed to be renovated.
The staff was very polite and helpful.
The bathroom sink-stopper was jammed and the weather would not drain properly.
helpful staff. Nice, clean, comfortable room. Decent buffet breakfast. Airport Shuttle
lobby area was very cold for our visit in february, was every uncomfortable for staff and guests.
Restaurant was open late
Out dated rooms Loud noise in room, despite calling to fix
Staff not supportive and Wifi difficult to access. 7.4 rating is too much for this hotel
Location. Hotel courtesy shuttle drops you at the JFK terminal directly.
No free wifi in rooms.
The hotel is good but only if you need to stay near by teh JFK airport, otherwise i do not recommend because of the lack of resources in the neighborhood.
Friendly and helpful staff all around; bed very comfy
room could've been cleaner, mould on shower curtain, drinking glasses with greasy smudges; expected better for the price
Easy and quick check in / check out. Location. Courtesy bus to JFK. Clean rooms.
Bright lighting in restaurant area.
Very close to the JFK international airport. There are shuttles waiting for you right outside the hotel every 30 minutes. Big room, comfort beds, nice view. Take few minutes to check in and check out.
The hotel staffs who are waiting outside the hotel at the main entrance. Upon our arrival, they never give us a hand or help you to move lugguages. I and my mom have several big and heavy luggages and we have to move them down from the taxi and bring them inside the hotel one by one while the staff are just standing there and looking at us.
The staff was friendly , the food was good , easy access to taxi . Clean well kept hotel
Lack of vegetarian options in the bar / restaurant was disappointing and they forgot my requested wake up call
The bus shuttle took 45 minutes to come to pick us and it was 4am with freezing weather conditions
Waited 40 minutes in sub zero temperatures for shuttle bus on saturday evening. Took three irate phone calls to get bus to come to arranged pick up point. will not be doing this again

Digging deeper into U.S. Open field
Come Thursday's first round of the U.S. Open at the Olympic Club, much of the attention will be focused on the threesome of Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson and Bubba Watson off the ninth tee at 7:33 a.m. PT. It will be interesting to see how Watson handles the pressure of playing with Woods and Mickelson. I wonder how much small talk there will be between Watson and Woods.
Last year at the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, Watson said that the 14-time major champion had gotten carried away with his swing tinkering and should "go out there and play golf."
U.S. Open GolfCast
Join ESPN.com's Michael Collins during Rounds 3 and 4 of the 112th U.S. Open for his unique brand of analysis and insight.
Tiger rarely forgives or forgets.
In the afternoon wave, the top three ranked players in the world -- Luke Donald, Rory McIlroy and Lee Westwood -- will complete the day's bill as the other marquee group in the first two rounds. Within the threesome of European Ryder Cup teammates, there is no love lost between Westwood and McIlroy, who split last fall with agent Chubby Chandler, who also guides Westwood's career. Both Westwood and Donald are seeking their first major titles and getting off to fast starts will be key for them as they try to position themselves for the weekend.
There is a very good chance that one of these six players will win the U.S. Open Trophy on Father's Day.
While these two groups have some great storylines, they aren't the only interesting threesomes that the USGA has orchestrated for the first two rounds. Here are five other groups to watch over the first two days.
Casey Martin, Cameron Wilson (a), Dennis Miller
Martin, the 40-year-old Oregon golf coach and former PGA Tour player, will use a golf cart at Olympic, 14 years after he made history at the same venue as the first golfer to use a cart in the U.S. Open. Martin, who has a congenital circulatory disorder in his right leg, is very familiar with Wilson, a Stanford junior, whom he knows well from Pac-12 events. Wilson won a very tough sectional at Canoe Brook in New Jersey, a site that always attracts the best players in the talent-rich Met section around New York City.
The third player in the group is Dennis Miller, a 42-year-old Ohio club pro who is making his first trip to the U.S. Open after 11 failed attempts in qualifiers. Miller got in by making a curling 20-footer on the fourth playoff hole at the Scioto Country Club in Columbus, Ohio. The putt hung on the lip for a full five seconds before falling into the hole.
Martin will be the main attraction in this group. Hopefully the attention surrounding him won't be too much of a distraction to the two other players, who are certain to play in front of galleries like they have never seen in their lives.
Adam Scott, Keegan Bradley, Webb Simpson
Bradley, the 2011 PGA Championship winner, is playing in only his third career major. He has had a solid year in 2012 with three top-10s, including a playoff loss in L.A. This is his first U.S. Open.
Playing in his 11th U.S. Open, the 31-year-old Scott is struggling to stay on the short list of the best players to never have won a major. His name comes up every year around golf's biggest events.
Since starting the year with a new philosophy of playing fewer tournaments to stay fresher throughout the season, the Australian has struggled to find a rhythm in his game. Yet he did have a tie for eighth at the Masters off the strength of a final-round 66.
After a life-changing year in 2011, when he had two wins and 12 top-10s, Simpson came into this season ready to test his game seriously at the majors. At the Masters, he had a tie for 44th and since a fourth at the Wells Fargo Championship, he has missed his past two cuts.
Without much recent success coming into Olympic, these three players are under the radar enough to play pressure-free golf and move steadily through the week.
Rickie Fowler, Ryo Ishikawa, Dustin Johnson
Shortly before the Masters, Dustin Johnson injured his back in a jet ski accident that kept him out of the first major. The 27-year-old PGA Tour winner didn't return until the Memorial. He might have had some rust on his game, but he has to be a threat at Olympic.
But with a 1-shot win on Sunday in Memphis, Johnson quickly dusted off the rust from the layoff. His brief record at the majors always make him a stronger contender at Olympic. In just 13 career majors, he has four top-10s, including a T-8 at the 2010 U.S. Open.
Fowler comes into Olympic off a final round 84 at the Memorial. The Murrieta, Calif. native is always a fan favorite and should draw enthusiasm from the crowds. His lone top 10 in a major came last year with a tie for fifth at the British Open.
Ishikawa, who was once thought to be a future No. 1 in the world will attract a strong Asian contingent in the Bay area, had his first top 10 in three months with a tie for ninth at the Memorial.
Martin Kaymer, Hunter Mahan, Justin Rose
This might be one of the most talented threesomes at Olympic in the first two rounds. They have all had big wins and own great golf swings, but only Kaymer has a major, the 2010 PGA. It's a shame because both Mahan and Rose have the games to win many majors. Mahan, who has two wins this year, is perhaps the best driver of the golf ball in the world. Now that his chipping around the green is serviceable, his nerves should hold up on the weekend.
And Rose is quietly becoming one of the most consistent players on tour. The 31-year-old Englishman, who won earlier this year at Doral, has had top-10s in three of his past four events. There is no reason why he shouldn't contend at Olympic.
Jason Day, Louis Oosthuizen, Jason Dufner
From the end of April through May, Dufner was the best player in the world. Over that stretch, he had two wins, a second-place finish and a tie for 68th at The Players Championship. The 35-year-old Auburn grad contended early at the Masters, but he fell off the pace with two 75s on the weekend. He's coming into Olympic off a two-week break, and the rest should reenergize a game already trending toward greatness.
Louis Oosthuizen was great for three weeks in the spring. The 29-year-old South African had a second in Houston. Then a week later he lost in a playoff at the Masters and a week after that he won in Malaysia. But since then he has missed three of his past four cuts.
It's easy to forget now, but Jason Day had second-place finishes in last year's Masters and U.S. Open. No one in 2011 had more top-10s without a win than Day, who had 10 on the year. This year injuries have kept him from consistently playing that caliber of golf.
These players all have the potential to get on the leaderboard early at Olympic. They all know major championship pressure. But if I had to pick a player out of this group to win, it would be Dufner, who is playing as well as anyone in the world.

What is Pebble and Why are we doing it? The title for this post, refers to the students first two weeks of our project based learning course, where students analyse: What is learning?
What helps us learn? What skills and dispositions do we need to be effective learners? How does a project based approach learning help us? To begin with, we asked students, what skills are needed for; The Creative Timeline. Ok, so we have just finished the third major project for Pebble, 'The Creative Timeline' asks students to delve into their own memories of their lives so far and use this as a stimulus for creating some brilliant conceptual artwork.
As ever, the week before the project starts proper, the students unpick, explore and understand the PLTS we are focusing in for the next project. Funnily enough, it was 'Creative Thinker'. We used Ben Keeling's book as way in for students to look at some of the skills needed to be an effective creative thinker. (Link for the resources for this skills week project here.) Here are my classes results. Top Ten Group Work Strategies. If I am continually vexed by any one question in education it is 'how can we enhance student motivation?
' Of course, I do not have the answer, and if there is one it is multi-faceted, complex and, frankly, not going to be solved in this blog post! From my position as a classroom teacher, I am always on the look out for those strategies that create a state when students are motivated and in their element, where they work furiously without even realising they are doing so, without realising the clock is ticking down to the end of the lesson. There is no better compliment than when students question how long there is left and express genuine surprise at how fast time has passed, and that they have actually enjoyed that lesson!
Project-Based Learning for Digital Citizens. It's award season, so I'm giving my students an award.
A major award! I'm honoring them for stepping outside the comfort zone of the school system that they have been subject to for most of their lives, authoring their own learning, and in the process, enjoying it. However, this transition did not come easily, and it took them some time to adjust to this format. Project_Design_Rubric1. KONY 2012. FreeBIEs.

I like the concept of a wishlist but need to change the wording for my target market. So I need all instances of "Wishlist" to be "Invitations"… whats the best way to do this????

Re: I, Mudd; I, Smokey Bear
I wish Carmel had been able to do his TNG episode.
Yes, he was going to do one. Mudd would be revived from cryogenic suspension and meet the Ent-D crew. IIRC, he would have sacrificed himself to save them - his final line would have been something like "This is for MY Enterprise!"
I think it was only Carmel's death that stopped the episode.
