MEDNAX Announces Acquisition Of Anesthesiology Practice In Knoxville, Tenn.
MEDNAX, Inc., (NYSE:MD) today announced the acquisition of Anesthesia Medical Alliance of East Tennessee (AMAET) a physician group practice based in Knoxville, Tenn. that provides anesthesia services at 16 practice locations throughout the East Tennessee region.
AMAET will become part of MEDNAX's American Anesthesiology division, and is the first Tennessee-based practice to join the division.
AMAET was founded in 2001 and consists of 45 anesthesiologists and 158 anesthetists, providing anesthesia services across a wide spectrum of subspecialty areas including cardiovascular, obstetric, neuroanesthesia, regional anesthesia and pain management.
AMAET serves five hospitals including Parkwest Medical Center, Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center and Physicians Regional Medical Center; eight Ambulatory Surgery Centers; and three hospital-based pain practices.
"Our longstanding relationships with the area's hospitals and surgeons, combined with American Anesthesiology's commitment to delivering the highest quality patient care, will be an asset to the communities we serve," said Tucker Gentry, M.D., partner at AMAET. "We look forward to collaborating with a national medical group of anesthesiologists where we can have an even greater impact on improving anesthesia care and outcomes," adds Mitch Dickson, M.D., partner at AMAET. The physicians joining as a result of this transaction will now be part of MEDNAX's American Anesthesiology division, which consists of more than 1,200 anesthesia providers, including more than 475 physicians and 735 anesthetists practicing in North Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Florida, Texas, New Jersey, and Tennessee with administrative offices in Sunrise, Fla. and Raleigh, N.C. This practice was acquired for cash and the transaction is expected to be immediately accretive to earnings. No additional terms of the transactions were disclosed. With this acquisition, eight physician group practices have become part of MEDNAX in 2012, four as part of American Anesthesiology and four as part of Pediatrix Medical Group. ABOUT MEDNAX MEDNAX, Inc. is a national medical group that comprises the nation's leading provider of neonatal, maternal-fetal and pediatric physician subspecialty services as well as anesthesia services. Physicians and advanced practitioners practicing as part of MEDNAX are reshaping the delivery of care within their specialties and subspecialties, using evidence-based tools, continuous quality initiatives and clinical research to enhance patient outcomes and provide high-quality, cost-effective care. Pediatrix Medical Group, a unit of MEDNAX, was founded in 1979 and now includes neonatal physicians who provide services at more than 300 neonatal intensive care units, who collaborate with affiliated maternal-fetal medicine, pediatric cardiology and pediatric critical care physician subspecialists to provide a clinical care continuum. Pediatrix is also the nation's largest provider of newborn hearing screens. In 2007, MEDNAX expanded into anesthesia services. Today, American Anesthesiology includes more than 1,200 anesthesiologists and advanced practitioners who provide anesthesia care to patients in connection with surgical and other procedures as well as pain management. MEDNAX, through its affiliated professional corporations, employs more than 1,900 physicians in 34 states and Puerto Rico. Additional information is available at www.mednax.com.

That means we're just three short months from finding out what new methods of uncivil engineering the developer's thrown in this time around -- we've got our fingers crossed for some sort of double sledgehammer, which is, of course, a sledgehammer with another sledgehammer stuck on the bottom. Oh, man. Could you imagine?
AGOURA HILLS, Calif. – Feb 22, 2011 – Above ground or beneath the surface, nowhere on Mars is safe as Red Faction®: Armageddon explodes onto the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and Windows PC with a planned release date of May 31 in North America and June 3 internationally, THQ Inc. (NASDAQ: THQI) and its internal studio, Volition, Inc. announced today.
Red Faction: Armageddon expands on the critically acclaimed science-fiction franchise, building on the events of Red Faction: Guerrilla as well as the upcoming Syfy live-action movie, Red Faction: OriginsTM. As destruction expert Darius Mason, your journey will take you from the frozen poles to the molten core of Mars as you wage war against the Red Faction's greatest enemy yet. Built on the groundbreaking Geo-Mod 2.0 destruction engine, players can take advantage of total environmental destruction, collapsing huge Martian structures on their enemies. Rebuild all that you destroy with the Nano-Forge's incredible repair ability, creating new gameplay scenarios never before possible.
"Red Faction: Armageddon is an incredible new entry in this vaunted franchise, and Volition once again pushes the envelope of technology and science fiction," said Danny Bilson, Executive Vice President, Core Games, THQ. "Come May 31, players can look forward to collapsing entire buildings on their enemies, using the world as their weapon."

1801 Collins Ave. (305) 531-1271 shelborne.comStudio ticks all the boxes of a truly awesome karaoke joint—an exhaustive menu of songs, attentive emcee, a closing time of 5 a.m.—but its true achievement is this: even though it's on Collins Ave, the most glitterbombed strip in America, it still has a grungy-cool underground feel (of course, it helps that it's actually underground, in the basement of the Shelborne). Its raised stage, piled high with instruments and bordered by a chant-slurry crowd, is also the closest you'll likely come to feeling like a rock god.

The other day I was talking to a fellow gun nut and he mentioned that he wanted a .22 suppressor but that he couldn't afford it.
I told him that I have been known to trade gun,knives and ammo for them and that I was open to suggestions.
So, he offered me a 7.7 Jap Arisaka in pristine condition, a WW 2 bring back, with the Imperial Chrysanthemum on it, complete with aircraft sights and mono pod. As a milsurp collector and knowing that a good example of such would be worth around 600 bucks, I was about to agree to the trade when he offered to throw in a Sig 225 in 9 mm, with 4 magazines.
I was in shock, I couldn't believe it. Here was a suppressor worth 200 bucks, and he offered me a killer deal. Naturally I accepted.
He now has a suppressor on the way.
Today at the range, another gun guru mentioned that he was in the hunt for a Sig 225 and that he had looked everywhere. I told him that I had two and that I could be persuaded to part with one if the trade was right.
Knowing that I was wanting some sort of 30-06 for a project gun, in which to put a bull barrel on and turn into a target rifle, he offered up a Remington 700, complete with scope and mounts. I must have acted a bit hesitant or something because he walked back to the truck and got me 7 boxes of Remington Core Lokt Ammo. That right there was worth at least 150 bucks. Not to mention that it had a sling on it, and it came a plastic hard-case. As I was about to give him the OK, he throws in a Colt Frontier,22 that looked to be in good shape. He told me that it was just taking up space in his safe, that he never shot it anymore and that he'd "throw it in".
So here I ended up with an '06 worth at least 400 bucks in its present configuration,at least a 150 bucks worth of ammo, along with a Colt Frontier .22 made in 1959, for a Sig that I had about 100 bucks in. All in all, it wasn't a bad day out.
I know that some of us have got some killer deals in on guns in the past, so lets hear about the ones that were almost too good to believe. Come on, don't be shy. It's part of the wheelin and dealin that makes things so interesting.

The city of Ishimbay is called second Baku. In 1930 they started development of the second largest oil field with the first one being developed in Baku. In 1960 Baku occupied the first position in the list of places known for oil extraction in the USSR. And only after a new oil field discovery in Siberia Ishimbay city started losing its former importance. Today we'll visit the place where one of the Russian great legends that contributed to development of oil and exploration of the North was born.
This is the transport machine building factory located in Ishimbay. After the fall of the USSR the enterprise was about to get closed. Fortunately, we were able to preserve the production.
The video shows what is meant by a unique off-road vehicle.
Construction of the vehicles started in 1981 when a special constructor bureau was created.
The vehicles were used in defense industry and the enterprise was considered as secret. They were transported to the northern regions soon after they were produced.
The plant has a museum with photos, recommendations and awards.

Sure, we could tell you that Lighting is essential because without it, we are all sitting around in the dark. And we acknowledge that even poorly designed lighting lets you see. But lighting is really a "quality-of-life" issue. Do you want to feel proud of your home and do you appreciate how a well conceived space can make you feel better about today? At its core, effective lighting CAN make your life dramatically more enjoyable. Lighting impacts your mood. Poorly conceived lighting will create an instant negative vibe. And great lighting can lift you up without you even knowing why.

Pendant Lighting Basics

LampsUSA Experts
| 0 comments
Pendant lights are usually 9 inches or more in diameter. Some might call them chandeliers, but pendants are usually more contained and less "sprawling" than a chandelier. If you are looking for a smaller pendant, check out our mini-pendants. Pendant lights are commonly available in single or multiple pieces that ensure a distinctive appeal and alluring effect. The intensity of light required to illuminate any area can be decided by the choice of bulb used in the lighting fixture. Pendant fixtures are used with dim and natural lights to give the best possible effect to any room.

DOWNLOAD: Video from Radiohead's L.A. Benefit
Chances are the rock gods didn't hit eBay or Craigslist to buy you one of the $1,500-plus tickets to Radiohead's Haiti benefit show last January at Los Angeles' 863-person capacity Music Box Theatre -- surely one of the Oxford band's most intimate gigs this decade. But, now you can have the next best thing: fan footage of the two-hour, 24-song set, edited into a DVD-length film and sanctioned by the band. Watch below!
The show, one of SPIN's best concerts of 2010, was full of an "ebullience that made the floorboards seem miles beneath the whole production," wrote SPIN's Chris Martins. An A-list crowd that included Justin Timberlake, Jessica Biel, and comedian Aziz Ansari all gathered for the gig, the proceeds from which were donated to Oxfam. The grand total?As Yorke announced with an astonished, "Fuck me!" a cool $572,754.
You can watch the concert right here, or download it for keeps at Inez4Bears -- you can grab both the video and audio from the concert. If you decide to download, Radiohead is encouraging fans to get into the holiday spirit and donate to Oxfam to help with the continuing relief effort in Haiti.

An Iowa teenager is dead and another was hospitalized after a rollover crash in southwest Iowa.
Atlantic radio station KJAN-AM reports that an unidentified 16-year-old was killed Friday in a crash northeast of Prescott. The teenager was a passenger in a van driven by a 17-year-old. Both teens are from Creston.
The Iowa State Patrol said neither teen was wearing a seatbelt. They were traveling west on a gravel road in a 2002 Honda van. Authorities said the driver lost control after cresting a hill and over-corrected. The van went partially into a north ditch, and a second over-correction sent the van into a south ditch, where it rolled.
The 16-year-old was ejected, and died at the scene. The driver was taken to Adams County Hospital in Corning.
1 teen killed, another injured in accident

They are right!! If you don't exercise your rights, you loose them. If open carry is legal and no one carries in the open then folks get used to seeing regular folks without firearms. I can remember attending a training session in Arizona. I had been living in California for twenty years and drove my rental car from the hotel to a quick stop down the street to get a 6-pack. A guy in line to check out had a Semi-automatic pistol on his hip and caught me staring at it. He looked at me and said "You're from California, aren't you!" "Yes!" I said back, "We aren't used to seeing that where I live."
People get the government they deserve.
Nice AR in the photo. BUT.............this does NOT do the conservative cause any good. The leftists will parade this photo about as an example of how "crazy" the anti-Obama crowd is. MOST people in this country will probably react negatively to the photo and be willing to accept the Left's spin on this. It does not matter if the act was legal, or if the rifle in the photo is a "Sport Utility Rifle". Even the photo caption on the front page of Foxnews.com called it an "assault rifle". I fail to see what positive message this person has contributed with his actions here.
"People live too long, dogs don't live long enough" - FTF Member-
I'm of mixed minds on this subject. No one was arrested, no laws were broken. A right not exercised is not a right. His timing may be questioned, unless he carries on a regular basis. My bet is that this was the first time he open carried the AR in public and accomplished what he wanted to. His 15 minutes of fame.
I too am of mixed thoughts. I agree, if you don't use your rights you'll loose them but I question if this was the best way to exercise them.
If the pain is lacking so is the discipline... "the only 911 call I need is chambering a round" - Mr. Muller, MO car dealer
I think it's great that some guys have the balls to go out there and exercise their rights. They're probably on some federal watch list now having their tax records and rectal exam history pored over. I could care less how the MSM spins it. Gun legislation is a dead issue for liberals because it would fuel the fire and piss off their constituents. I don't think it'll help them dismiss the "right wing" opposition when it comes to health care and other socialist issues. Sane people understand that we're a nation of laws and no laws were broken that day.

Microsoft's new operating system launches on Thursday and you may be asking: How did we get to Windows 7? Did I miss 5 and 6?
No, you didn't. But Microsoft Corp.'s names for the successive versions of Windows have been more than a little confusing. It's easy to get the impression that with every new version of Windows, Microsoft wants us to forget that there was a previous one.
Long ago, we had Windows 1, 2 and 3. So far, so good. Then Microsoft started naming its consumer software after the year of release, like a car, and we got Windows 95. That was followed by 98, while professional users got 4.0. But Windows 2000 wasn't for consumers at all - the professional version was now named for its vintage as well.
The new millennium threw a spanner in the year-numbering works. Microsoft balked at naming its new system "01." Naming it "2001" wouldn't have worked either: imagine all the jokes about the homicidal computer in the movie "2001: A Space Odyssey." So the new Windows became "XP," a not entirely self-evident contraction of "experience."
There didn't seem to be any other two-letter combination handy to capture Microsoft's goals for the next Windows, so it became "Vista." A vista is what you might see out of a window, so that makes sense, right? Someone thought so.
Vista bombed, prompting Microsoft to make another clean break - the third one - and give us Windows 7.
Microsoft's official rationale is that "7" is the seventh version of Windows. It gets there by counting up from Windows NT 4.0, skipping Windows 98 and counting both XP and 2000 as No. 5. Vista was No. 6.
Adding to the confusion, Steven Sinofsky, Microsoft's president of Windows, has a variant explanation, saying that Windows 95 was the fourth version of Windows. But Windows 7 is descended from NT 4.0, not Windows 95.
And to further complicate matters, Windows 7 is really Windows 6.1. That's what the operating system will tell software applications that are trying to check which version of Windows they are running on. Windows 7 will say it's 6.1 because it's really a small upgrade from Vista, and programs designed to run on Vista should run with no problems on 7.
"The decision to use the name Windows 7 is about simplicity," according to Mike Nash at the official Windows blog. He then lays it out in terms as clear as the vista from a newly polished window.
Coming up with a new "aspirational name" like XP or Vista, he writes, would "not do justice to what we are trying to achieve, which is to stay firmly rooted in our aspirations for Windows Vista, while evolving and refining the substantial investments in platform technology in Windows Vista into the next generation of Windows."
John Long, a retail strategist at consulting firm Kurt Salmon Associates, points out that it's difficult to come up with words like "Vista" that work well in all languages - an important consideration for a world-spanning product like Windows.
"Going back to numbers is logical," Long said. He also pointed out that even if Microsoft has been indecisive about what to stick after the "Windows," it has at least been faithful to the "Windows" brand.
If you're going to jump on the number train, seven is a good place to do it. The number has mostly positive connotations, if you exclude the "Seven Deadly Sins," Long said. In Japan in particular, seven is an auspicious number. Images and statues of the seven gods of happiness and luck are commonplace.
Contrast that with Apple Inc.'s approach. It used a consistent numbering scheme for versions 1 through 9 of its operating system. When it got to 10, the current version, it started adding the names of big cats to the sub-releases: Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard.

"I think Apple to some degree likes to play the underdog and likes to imbue their products with a lot more personality," Long said. "Animals do that quite effectively."
The Windows franchise faces a lot of challenges - among them, Internet search leader Google Inc.'s plans for its own operating system. So Windows may find itself the underdog one day.
By then, Apple will have already had a lock on cats, but Microsoft could turn to dogs: Windows Greyhound (it's fast), Windows Dachshund (it's compact, good for small computers) or Windows Cocker Spaniel (pretty interface).

Things to do in London: Take a tour of Chislehurst Caves
Published: Monday 19th of November 2012
There are various wonders in London prime for exploration but few come with such a chilling mystery as the Chislehurst Caves.
In total, the caves measure around 20 miles in length and have wowed visitors for decades with their 8,000-year history which offers, quite literally, a deep insight into the roots of London.
The caves have played a crucial role within the capital's life for centuries, originally being used for flint and lime production, with the mines proving more than useful for Londoners in a variety of guises.
On top of this, they are used as a tourist attraction, with visitors from around the world opting to take a wander around the caves, while they were formerly employed as an ammunitions depot during the First World War.
Indeed, the divisions that used to be seen within Britain in centuries gone are depicted in the caves as you can see where they used to be split up during the Saxon, Druid and Roman eras.
Get free entry to over 55 top London attractions with a London Pass.

Congratulations on your election as AKA President.First of all, thanks much to Ben for posting this question and thanks to all of you for replying.As of Thursday, I will be the next president of the AKA.
Welcome to the Revolution Forum. I am one of the forum administrators with almost 20 years experience flying the Revolution kite.
For the 14 years proceeding this year I was a member of the AKA counterpart STACK, which is primarily in Europe.
I am now back in the USA, the majority of the time.
For a short period I was a member of both AKA and STACK, however I gave up the AKA membership while in Europe due to the higher membership fees for Europe.
The higher fee was to cover the postage costs for Europe. I asked for a PDF version to reduce the yearly fee, however this was not considered acceptable at the time.
In my signature you can see a few of my accomplishments within STACK.

You're paying big bucks to be in a nice spot. It's likely summer and you're wearing light-weight clothes. If you're a family person, you're with your kids/grand-kids and doing spontaneous activities.
I struggle with it. I don't always carry for every event on vacation. This week, we're doing a week at Kiawah Island (SC), and I have a G19 with spare mags secured in a safe in the condo, and an LCP as a light-weight carry option as well.
I carried the G19 IWB during the drive down here (gas stops), but secured it when we arrived. I don't carry at the beach (not saying right or wrong, I just don't), and generally carry the LCP in my front shorts pocket when wondering around shops or walking the dog in the evening.
Last night, we were meeting extended family at 'California Dreaming' for dinner in Charleston, and knowing that there was a bar in the restaurant (presently not legal for carry in SC), I seriously considered not carrying that evening. Instead I opted to pocket-holster the LCP and leave it in a secured/cabled safe in the car while eating. Of course, not all extended family members showed up on time, and I volunteered to keep the kids entertained and walk them through the marina there while we waited. I was able to swing by the car to grab the pocket-holstered LCP without anyone wondering what was going on...
We hadn't walked 15 feet towards the dock leading to the boats when a freak on a bicycle rode into the parking lot, screaming for all he was worth. It was clear that he was out of his mind, and the kids got scared and lined up behind me. He rode straight for us, and appeared to be in some sort of rage. He was young (probably in his twenties), but he looked like just some ragged hippy in a bad mood. I really never planned on drawing on him, but was reassured that I had that option. My plan was to clothes-line the idiot off as he approached us.
He apparently picked up on my intent and slammed on the brakes, but caught traction and high-sided off onto the pavement. It was a lovely self-body-slam into the asphalt. It quickly got creepy again, as he didn't react to the fall, but continued movement, scrambling like a cock-roach towards a van a few spaces away. He climbed in and drove off. The kids were totally freaked out.
My point is, you're never safe. Nice towns, nice vacation spots, the ghouls are everywhere. I'm not saying stuff a Glock in a sandwich bag in your swim shorts, but don't think for a moment that a vacation spot is a time to let your guard down. We're still having a wonderful time here, and I'll sleep well tonight. I'll also have the G19 with three spare mags within arms-reach as well.

AstraZeneca Begins A New Global Study Of FASLODEX® (fulvestrant) Injection In Patients With Hormone Receptor-Positive Advanced Breast Cancer
AstraZeneca (NYSE:AZN) today announced the start of a Phase III study (FALCON), a global clinical trial which will involve 450 postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have not previously been treated with any hormonal therapy. The Phase III study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of fulvestrant 500 mg compared to anastrozole 1 mg in this patient population.
Fulvestrant 500 mg is currently indicated for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer in postmenopausal women with disease progression following antiestrogen therapy. FASLODEX is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to the drug or to any of its components. Hypersensitivity reactions, including urticaria and angioedema have been reported in association with FASLODEX.
"The FALCON study is the first Phase III study designed to investigate the potential role of the 500 mg dose of fulvestrant in the treatment of hormone receptor positive advanced breast cancer in patients who have not been previously treated with any hormonal therapy," said John Robertson, MD, Professor of Medicine, Graduate Entry Medicine and Health School, University of Nottingham Royal Derby Hospital.
"The FALCON study has the potential to impact clinical practice concerning endocrine treatment options for women with hormone receptor positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer," said Matthew Ellis, MB BChir PhD, Professor of Medicine, Washington University School of Medicine and Siteman Cancer Center Breast Cancer Program.
Dr. Ellis and Dr. Robertson are the International Co-ordinating investigators for the FALCON Study. The FALCON design is based on safety and efficacy results from the phase II FIRST (Fulvestrant First-Line Study Comparing Endocrine Treatments) study. 1 FALCON is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, multicenter, Phase III study evaluating the efficacy and tolerability of fulvestrant 500 mg (monotherapy) compared to anastrozole 1 mg (monotherapy) as hormonal treatment for postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who have not previously been treated with any hormonal therapy. In the FALCON study, eligible patients will be randomized 1:1 to receive either fulvestrant (500 mg/day intramuscular injection) on Days 0, 14 (±3), 28 (±3), and every 28 (±3) days thereafter plus a placebo to match the anastrozole administration schedule, or anastrozole (1 mg/day orally) plus a placebo to match the fulvestrant administration. 2 The FALCON study is still opening US clinical trial sites and patient recruitment and enrollment has begun. Additional information about the FALCON clinical trial is available by visiting www.clinicaltrials.gov and searching under the term FALCON. "Despite advances in treatment and detection, breast cancer remains the leading cause of cancer death in women around the world," said Yuri Rukazenkov, MD, Medical Science Director, AstraZeneca. 3 "The FALCON trial is part of AstraZeneca's commitment to the continued study and evaluation of treatment options for metastatic breast cancer, and developing and optimizing breast cancer therapies for all patient groups." Approved Use for FASLODEX ® (fulvestrant) Injection The pivotal study supporting fulvestrant 500 mg is the CONFIRM ( COmpariso N of FASLODEX In Recurrent or Metastatic breast cancer) Trial. FASLODEX is indicated for the treatment of hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer in postmenopausal women with disease progression following antiestrogen therapy.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Home → Center for Best Practice → Case Studies → The Power of Principals → Overview & Summary
Overview & Summary
On a map, RSU 20 has the look of a hub and spoke, with Belfast and Belfast Bay at the center. Its towns Belfast, Searsmont, Belmont, Northport, Frankfort, Morrill, Swanville, Searsport and Stockton Springs thrived as part of the once-booming commercial region defined by the bay and the Penobscot River. Those towns now struggle as the region has taken hit after economic hit over the past two decades. In this way, the towns of RSU 20 and their schools are not dissimilar to many others in Maine.
Over the past decade, the schools that now make up RSU 20 faced individual crises of student achievement. Given the culture of their district and the culture of education at the time, Troy Howard Middle School and Searsport District High School each faced their crises largely in isolation. Even without effective district support, however, these schools, their principals and faculties, were able to craft systems that place them in a good position to face the current district's shift to proficiency-based/learner-centered education. Three key points emerge from the case studies:
- A Sense of Urgency: The enemy of change is not opposition, but indifference. Presented with evidence that their schools were not performing to expectations e.g., not making AYP the leadership chose to use that evidence as leverage for wholesale school improvement.
- Strong Building Leadership: The title of this case study is a reference to the Michael Fullan article, "The Awesome Power of the Principal" (2010). As much as the faculties and communities of Troy Howard Middle School and Searsport District High School came together to support and drive the change, all participants in this study acknowledged the transformational leadership of the building principals. It was the principals of the elementary schools of MSAD 34 who came together for their early standards-based work. At times this transformational leadership may have bordered, according to some participants, on authoritarian leadership, but the line between top-down and bottom-up leadership is one that must be explored by each district. In this case study, the locus of transformational leadership was and still is the building principal.
- Moral Courage: Building leaders, district leaders, school board, faculty and supporters in the community were able to focus on and articulate the moral imperative behind this change. Gregg Palmer's four essays, for example, made the ethical case for why this change was necessary, but all faculty were expected to speak to parents and kids on the issue. At Troy Howard Middle School, the conversation was consistently about "the way school ought to be." Belfast Area High School, beginning this year, is determining its own plan for change.
The experience of RSU 20 has been one of individual schools addressing their individual educational needs. The quality of the leadership and faculties involved allowed these schools to make huge strides early in the process. They suffered, though, from a lack of district support and a lack of a coherent district vision. Now, with the consolidation of RSU 20, the hope is that the schools of the district may come together, sharing expertise and capacity, becoming even more than the sum of their considerable parts.
This Center for Best Practice is a collaboration between the Maine Department of Education and the Nellie Mae Education Foundation, made possible by the contributions of the Maine schools that share their stories.

No-sew Leather Pencil Case. I have been feeling slightly under the weather this week.
A lack of energy, a cold, sleepy, headachy... and I got slightly frustrated about it. So many things I wanted to do. Embellish {a blog by Laura Wadsworth} Hi friends!
Today I wanted to share a fun project with you! A couple of years ago I went through a scrap-booking craze! I know lots of people still scrapbook, but I just found that I would spend to much time agonizing over every page (I was kind of a perfectionist!) Ugly bunny pincushion and bag charm (with patterns) Making a pincushion is a delicate task.
Ofcourse, you don't want to make it so cute that you don't want to jab your collection of pointy things in it. On the other hand, you'll also want to make it look cool enough, otherwise you're reminded of your failed project every time you go crafting! My last pincushion suffered from the latter problem, so it was time to make a new one. Crochet - Collar Pattern. Crochet Collar Pattern This pattern is for an adult version *If you would prefer to print/save this pattern there is now a downloadable PDF file at the end of the pattern.
Pattern written in UK terms Hook: 4mm. Söta filtdjur – Cute animal felties. Paper crafts / easy! Paper crafts.. / cool quilled flower. Beaded Collar Necklace DIY : Trinkets in Bloom. One of the hottest trends right now are collar necklaces.
You see them everywhere. The June issue of Lucky magazine has them listed in the top 5 trends for Spring. Rabbit (Jun Maekawa): Instructions. Woodworking Toy Plans. Presentrosetter av tygband – Fabric gift bows. Paper Flower Garland Backdrop. I was inspired to make this paper flower backdrop by one of our favorite wedding websites.
So simple and lovely, I can see a few other uses for this garland backdrop that goes beyond wedding. For now, it will remain a beautiful wall sculpture against our charcoal wall. Supplies I used: Prints of Flower Garland Template PDF onto following paper: PAGE 1 of template: 20 sheets of Star Dream Opal text weight paper (Paper Source)PAGE 2 of template: 5 sheets of Shimmer Gold text weight paper (Paper Source) PAGE 3 of template: 5 sheets of Sage text weight paper (Paper Source) plus: 1 roll of Honeydew Bakers Twine (The Twinery) 84 inch (7 foot) long branch + scissors, hot glue & embroidery needle Lia. Soft craft / Pretty smocking. How to Seam Granny Squares.
April 19th, 2012 by Jess I love granny squares because they make it so easy to play with exciting colors.
Often, my squares end up with different colored borders, so how do I choose a shade to seam them? The answer's easy: I can use any color because I use an invisible seam! This super easy technique creates a durable seam that disappears into your crocheting. Sewing and Crafts / Handmade paper roses. Paper Rose Wedding Bouquet. This project, using paper roses to create a bouquet, has been on my mind since I posted the first paper rose tutorial.
It is timeless and elegant and though I show it here in the white, it could easily be made in any color or even multiple colors by printing the template on a colored letter weight paper. Here are my instructions: PAPER ROSE BOUQUET You will need: 24 prints of the paper rose template, scissors and hot glue, florist wire and florist tape, ribbons for handle and bow. 1a) Print 24 rose templates onto a letter weight paper. Circle Zip Earbud Pouch Tutorial - Dog Under My Desk. UPDATE: I have completely re-written this tutorial with all new photos and better instructions and it is available as a licensed pattern in my pattern shop.
The free tutorial for personal use is still available below! I use a little zippered pouch to carry around my earbuds since they are the fancy microphone ones and I don't want them to break or get tangled. Origami Mini Star. These cute little nickel sized stars are great projects for a number of themes -- Japan, Christmas, Fourth of July, geometry (pentagon), etc.
They are quite easy (for origami) but I don't think I'd try them with children under age 10 (unless they have experience with origami). Materials: Strip of paper 1/2 inch by 11 inches plain white paper or construction paper work this is a good chance to practice recycling by using junk mailings -- they have nice colors that make nifty stars when they're all done. From Cardboard to Fun Mod Wall Storage! I like to reuse and recycle. I'm hardly the greenest gal you're going to meet, but I do like to at least try to do my part. So, when Russell brought home a stack approximately 3 foot tall of cardboard "trash" from work I started to think out things I could make.
I'm always in need of places to put things so I put my mind toward a storage kind of thing for my first cardboard project. Since I have no idea what these things are, or what I should call them, I'm just calling them mods since they're modular. :)

Adding to the complexity of astrology and how it influences your personality and time is the Moon – that bright, luminous orb we see in the night sky that rules the unconscious realms of our minds, the stuff dreams are made of. Our instinctual reactions can be affected by the Moon's monthly phases, or to be more specific, 29.5 Earth days, as the Moon grows from a small crescent to a large glowing globe, and then decreases in size back to nothing.
The Moon, of course, doesn't really shrink or grow, but from our vantage point, changes due to the relative positions of the Sun, Earth and Moon. This is why we see lunar phases. There are eight noticeable phases of the Moon: New Moon, Crescent Moon, First Quarter Moon, Gibbous Moon, Full Moon, Disseminating Moon, Third Quarter Moon and Balsamic Moon.
Over time, astrologers have correlated these eight phases of the Moon with certain activities that seem to be in harmony with that particular phase. For example, it seems natural to begin something new when the Moon is first visible, as a small crescent seen just after the setting sun. As the Moon grows over the next two weeks, so grows your new project. Culmination occurs when the Moon is full, in all her round glory. As she shrinks again, it's a time for introspection, releasing and letting go, in preparation for the next cycle.
Here's a look at the each phase of the Moon.
The New Moon
The New Moon is an opportune time for fresh beginnings. Practically imperceptible to the human eye, the New Moon seems almost nonexistent from our vantage point. However, like our subconscious minds, we know it's there, progressing slowly toward illumination.
There may be a feeling or desire brewing within for change. This is a time for planting seeds, birthing new ideas and starting afresh. Creatively speaking, inspiration can be residing somewhere just beneath the surface, barely breaking into conscious thought. Carve out some quiet time to nurture cerebral stirrings. Nourish your mind with books and listen to inspiring dreams. You may want to take a project that you've been working on in a different direction.
Listen to the little voice inside you. Evaluate the various areas in your life that you'd like to make changes in or put energy into. Want to quit smoking or stop biting your nails? Maybe it's time to take that business idea with your best friend selling vintage vinyl more seriously or bust that bulge around your waist. Any successful endeavor requires an initial burst of inspiration. Ideas can generate movement, so embark on something different. Open yourself up to possibilities. Plant that first seedling and see what arises.
The Crescent Moon
The Crescent Moon is a progression of the New Moon after just a few days, and can be seen as a right-sided wide sliver in the night sky. Expanding slowly toward its full illumination, this crescent slice is beneficial for the actual legwork of manifesting ideas into reality.
After you've resolutely decided on a new course, articulate your thoughts to others. Meet people, do some research. Stretch out your hand and see what lands there. Check out the feasibility of what you have in mind. Look for necessary procedures or tools that it takes to make an idea into a real outcome. You can see how a new project is starting to shape up. Consult someone with more experience. Ask them for advice about the course you're taking. It's better to start off right than to begin on shaky ground.
At this stage, it's important to have the proper nourishment for sprouting ideas. Just as an infant needs the right combination of vitamins and minerals to grow healthy, you, too, need to have the right items, talent or orientation to ensure success. Lay out some definite strategies. You can't have a successful business without a smart plan, or a great band without skilled musicians. A little foresight can reap rich rewards.
The First Quarter Moon
The First Quarter Moon label may lead you to think you should see only 25% of the nighttime luminary, but in actuality, the name is just a reference to the phase it's in. It's one-quarter of the way through its cycle. It doesn't refer to the percentage of Moon visible in the sky. In fact, what you'll see is the right-side half of the Moon as viewed from Earth. The energy is still in the expansive waxing phase.
Now is time for evaluations on how things are progressing. Questions may arise as to the course you're taking. You may have received some initial results and must determine if they're what you want. Perhaps some unforeseen obstacles or difficulties have presented themselves. Maybe things weren't quite what you expected, so now there are decisions to be made: continue forward or scrap the project altogether?
You can overcome obstacles with enough help or a new strategy. Adjustments may need to be made for you to get things back on course. Focus your energy on what you can change. Get help with what you can't. Aid may come from professional advice or your own research. If things are progressing as expected, then you may see the first signs of growth. Proceed with confidence, knowing that the path you've laid out will lead you to the desired outcome.
The Gibbous Moon
The Gibbous Moon refers to the waxing nighttime luminary plumping up, filling out, yet not quite full. Almost two weeks have elapsed since the New Moon. Momentum is building. Wherever you are in your endeavors, you may again want to evaluate how things are progressing.
Expansion is still a big part of the process, so if all the variables and results are just what you want, then you can safely branch out, going further in your intentions. Invest more of your resources on the path down which you've started. In practical terms, it can mean expending more money or more of your time, or hiring others; in short, go ahead and expand, knowing that the lunar energy is there to help you pursue your goal.
Stay the course, even if more challenges arise. Do what it takes to eliminate those barriers. This is no time to quit. Since the rewards are almost within reach, it would be a waste not to fully go for it. Let no one stand in your way, including yourself and your doubts, fears or just plain anxiety. You've done way too much work to throw your hands up at the critical moment, when success is just around the corner.
The Full Moon
The Full Moon is hard to miss in the sky. The big round luminary shines bright, adding a blue-tinged light upon the Earth's nighttime landscape. You may feel a slightly unusual vibe in the air, maybe even excitement. Myths abound about the effects of the Full Moon. Think werewolves. The ocean tides rise higher during a Full Moon due to the gravitational pull, which may explain why some folks behave oddly, since our bodies also are comprised of 83% water.
The bright light can cause restless slumbers, keeping you tossing and turning through the night. Don't be surprised if you find your dreams are more vivid and action-filled. The Moon can trigger your intuition too; realizations may hit you during quiet moments. The full Moon is especially romantic for couples who want to bask in her glorious light during a nighttime stroll.
It also can represent a time when you see the potential benefits of work that was initiated during the New Moon. It can be a glorious period, full of self-awareness and fulfillment. Impasses can be broken. The Moon's powerful beams shine a light on those darker spaces that are difficult to see. From this point on for the next two weeks, the Moon wanes, so let go. If you're interested in losing weight, embark on a diet now.
The Disseminating Moon
The Disseminating Moon looks like the Gibbous Moon, except that the fuller side of the Moon has switched from right to left. During this time, you see the fruits of your hard work and effort. If your project has been going well, then expect to reap the rewards. If you've had many obstacles and difficulties, then you may suffer the consequences.
Take what you've learned in the process and spread it around. Reach out to others with your knowledge now. Give back to society by teaching friends and acquaintances how to avoid the mistakes you've made. If you've been successful, show others how to follow your path. This is an auspicious time for general dissemination of information. Wise counsel can be given and received. If you have tangible products to show, distribute them as examples. Reward those who have been instrumental in helping you.
The Moon's light is noticeably diminishing. Consider the areas in your life that need trimming or slowing down. If a relationship is moving too fast, pull the reins while you get your bearings. Or continue curbing your eating habits as you notice your waistline shrinking. This waning Moon also inspires a desire for simplification or reduction.
The Third Quarter Moon
The Third Quarter Moon reveals the left half of the Moon in the nighttime sky as the Moon continues its waning cycle. Psychologically speaking, you may feel a strong desire to clear out extraneous matter from your life. The cluttered areas in your closets, in your home, at your office or in your garage may suddenly feel like annoying obstructions to your precious space.
It would behoove you mentally to start cleaning and clearing out stuff you no longer want or need. Have a big garbage can nearby and start tossing stuff out from your drawers. Donate boxes of clothes to charity. Don't hold on to possessions from the past that no longer represent the person you are today.
This is a great time for letting go, not only of material goods, but also in other ways. Consider a dietary program where you can rid your body of toxins and possible heavy metals. Drink lots of fluids to eliminate waste from your bloodstream. Eat fibrous foods for good digestion. See a psychotherapist to talk through the excess baggage that you've been carrying around all this time. Break out of a relationship that's keeping you from fulfilling your potential. This process of clearing out will help free you up emotionally and mentally, so you can see your life more clearly. The physical space you inhabit is a reflection of your soul, so if you've got old clutter to contend with, it doesn't leave much room for new things.
The Balsamic Moon
The Balsamic Moon shows a thin sliver of light in the eastern sky before sunrise, as it continues waning to eventual darkness in the next few days. This Moon instills a quiet reflective mood that's conducive for meditation and self-reflection. The process of letting go continues until you've reached a point where you can feel the results more overtly.
The initial clearing-out process may have led you to simplify your life even further than you originally intended. Items that you considered keeping a few days ago may now land in the donation box. The process of purification is more extreme. Therapy may have helped access memories, feelings and thoughts that were deeply hidden beneath the surface. This is the time for introversion. The energy you've been expending for almost a month needs replenishing on a psychic and physical level.
Schedule quality time alone at home. Reflect on things that happened this month in a journal. Evaluate things that you've learned. Consider what you'd do differently in the future. Quiet time is imperative for the maturation process. Wisdom cannot be gained if you're distracted by chatter and TV. It needs to be nurtured carefully. Recuperate fully before you can be of any great use for future endeavors. There are those who take charge of their lives and those who accidentally experience life. Decide which one you would rather be.

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Hello experts,
I would love to know the name of this beautiful typeface.
Thanks to this sample, I'd say it should be Alternate Gothic No 1 with a custom /G (may be started from /O)
Thanks for your time Ryuk, your sample is great !
I think Grotseque MT extra condensed is closer, still not perfect though.
Right. MT Grotesque Extra Condensed (MTGEC) is close but, even if /G could appear to come closer, that's doubtlessly Alternate Gothic No 1 (AGNO1) with a custom /G: /R bowler connection with vertical stem is oblique for AGNO1 and horizontal for MTGEC, MTGEC weight not enough bold, MTGEC /E middle bar too short while AGNO1 one is matching...
