Craig Schaefer, most recently the associate executive director of the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame, will take over as executive director of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Greater Fort Worth Affiliate beginning June 17, the organization announced May 9.
Ann Greenhill, who served as Komen Greater Fort Worth's executive director for the past nine years, and has been with the organization for almost 11 years, will retire in mid-June.
"We are excited about Craig continuing in Ann's footsteps," said Joan Katz and Rosanne Rosenthal, co-founders of Susan G. Komen for the Cure Greater Fort Worth Affiliate. "He has a long history of working with the local breast cancer community and his leadership skills will be invaluable to the organization."
Schaefer previously served for 15 years as executive director of Cancer Care Services. He will represent the Fort Worth Affiliate to the public, policy makers and community organizations; lead organizational development and strategic planning; provide guidance to volunteers and committees; optimize financial performance; build donor relationships; oversee personnel; and impact public policy.
Komen Greater Fort Worth grants funds each year to organizations in the Affiliate's service area of Tarrant, Parker, Johnson and Hood counties to support breast cancer education, detection, treatment and research.
Schaefer earned a master's degree in education administration from Central Michigan University and a bachelor's degree in secondary education from the University of Nebraska.

Updated: December 28, 2006, 8:20 PM ETAssociated Press
DALLAS -- Nebraska running back Brandon Jackson, who broke his right hand in the Big 12 championship game, said he will play in the Cotton Bowl.
"There's no doubt in my mind that I'm going to play," said Jackson, who will wear a splint protecting the top part of his injured hand. "I'm going to play in this game. I feel like I'll be 100 percent by the time the game comes."
That's good news for the 22nd-ranked Cornhuskers (9-4) entering Monday's game against No. 10 Auburn (10-2).

10 Ways to Honor Thyself
Take the self-love challenge and discover the beauty within.
By Rev. Laurie Sue Brockway
"To fall in love with yourself is the first secret to happiness." - Robert Morely
Love is one of the most powerful energies on the planet. We are born with love in our hearts, and it lives within us all. But some of us put so much focus on finding love and approval "out there" that we never get a chance to truly develop it within ourselves. We look for it in the external world--from parents, partners, friends, bosses, new people we meet, people we admire. If any one of them disappoints, devastation follows.
How many times have you been hurt because of someone else's opinion of you? When we experience self-esteem only through the eyes of others, one unkind word or a bad mood in another can shatter our sense of self.
Are you feeling the love? If not, it is time to take our self-love challenge--10 tips and techniques to help you enhance your life by cultivating love from within.
Learn to give yourself the love you deserve.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good data, opinionated narrative
Loved the science and the compelling science based arguments for the causal connection between sugar and metabolic syndrome and obesity in this book. Lustig lays out the facts clearly and in an understandable way for the non-scientist. He also has great ideas on food labeling and the need for legislative change. I was far less keen on the author's mostly cynical and...

5.0 out of 5 stars Read this Book!,
This book is one of the most important I've ever read, and I've been a GP for 34 years. I wish I'd known the stuff in here years ago, as all thru my career the official mantra has been "eat less fat, do more exercise" and, sadly I've repeated this message to many many patients. And yet the population is fatter, diabetes & metabolic syndrome have become epidemic and orthodox advice has clearly failed. This book tells you why - not all calories are equal, fructose (the villain) is a type of carbohydrate but is not metabolised as glucose and so causes damage, processed food is a disaster (sugar added to almost everything, the good stuff, eg. fibre, taken out). Yes, there's an American slant in the stories and background, but the issues raised are worldwide - wherever sugar intake has increased, obesity, diabetes, etc have rapidly followed, whatever the previous traditional diet was (high fat, low fat or whatever). I can't recommend the book highly enough and only hope the politicians, supermarkets, and food producers listen and act on its message. Assuming they won't, change your own life and those you influence by following its advice!

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally an explanation to fat.,
As an ex-NHS professional I recommend this book to anyone. Not just anyone with an interest in health, nutrition, obesity but anyone and everyone should read this book, it is a life changer.
I have gone through life thinking "a calorie is a calorie" and that energy intake can be burned off by excercising. Why not? Isn't it logical? So why doesn't it work? And now when it is explained in such a concise manner by Dr Lustig with all the evidence laid out to back it up I could feel the pieces finally falling into place as I was reading.
I did find it a bit hard going in places and I also found some of the Americanisms a bit confusing but it is quite readable. I suggest watching the YouTube video lecture of Robert Lustig too where he explains this topic but read the book too, the video isn't enough.
And it isn't all about sugar being the bad guy, and above all it isn't a diet book.
But it might save your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why your body doesn't know where your fat is!,
I've just sat in a cafe and pretty much binged on Robert Lustig's wonderful book "Fat Chance" about what's gone wrong with our diet, why we overeat, why we don't stop no matter how many government initiatives tell us to. It answers so many questions - why do diets make people with at least three months' energy storage around their gut (me!) feel sick and faint and depressed and as if they're starving to death? Why doesn't exercise always work the way it's supposed to? Why does eating one chocolate lead inevitably to finishing the box? (me again!) I've read an awful lot of books on diet and nutrition (guess why?) This is by far the best of the lot - clear and scientifically rigorous and even funny in places.
The answer to the questions? Basically the villain of the piece, the Voldemort of nutrition, the heroin of foodstuffs is... Sugar. Not fat as everyone has wrongly said for the last fifty years, but sugar, in particular fructose which acts like both sugar and fat in the liver and stuffs it up something dreadful. Hence metabolic syndrome, of which obesity is just one symptom, along with high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer, possibly dementia - oh, and death.
As it's blatantly obvious what I should do, I have come off the sugar again. Wish me luck, chaps.

5.0 out of 5 stars A seminal book that will change the course of dieting,
Unlike 'Pure, White & Deadly' by John Yudkin, which spoke out but few at the time were listening, 'Fat Chance' has come at a time when many believe that existing diets are solely for the enrichment of a niche industry that wants to sell products for profit only and cares little about the individual. Therefore, a wider audience awaits this book and I believe it will have a long, successful publishing life.
Lustig's book will go down in history as a seminal book that opened people's eyes to the obvious, even though the obvious is often painful to believe, especially when one is a food manufacturer, which I am. Although at times Robert Lustig can get one bogged down in minute detail, the message is clear and proof is always at hand - critically important for the sceptics who will look to trash his theories.
This book has come at an opportune time and it must have felt something similar to this when it was discovered that the world was round and not flat. Disbelievers await in the wings to repudiate the arguments so clearly and lucidly explained from page one onwards but I was convinced long before I had reached page 100 and I think most readers will agree with me. This is a book that you have to read and it should become a number one best seller, just for its educational benefits.
The book has fascinated me so much that not only have I tried out a reduction in sugar intake personally and seen a subsequent loss in weight but I have manufactured a natural, sugar free ice cream to launch onto the market to test the theories of this book. Since my business is a large user of sucrose, glucose and fructose, I feel that education is the only way to combat obesity and telling everyone to take more exercise just doesn't work. Most importantly, the use of aspartame, sorbitol and other chemical replacements are well documented in the book and it is clear that they don't work either.
The Holy Grail of weight loss and better health is here in this book and the bitter truth is that the enemy is only sugar. Lustig's explanations of the various diets on the market is illuminating and the common theme to all of them is a reduction of sugar, guaranteeing them all a chance of success without offering a panacea of continuing it after the diet has finished. Why? Because all of us go back to consuming sugar again without understanding that it is the one item we need to avoid.
In my mind this book will change the way many food manufacturers look at their products and I expect others will follow my example of allowing greater consumer choice with new products containing little or no sugar, not just for the diabetics but for everyone else who wishes to control their sugar intake and yet enjoy wholesome food. The sugar industry will hate it but then the tobacco industry fought a rearguard action for decades and look at it now. Just buy this book and decide for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Read - Compelling Blend of Science & Narrative,
This review is from: Fat Chance: The bitter truth about sugar (Kindle Edition)
If you've read Gary Taubes, Michael Pollan or similar, you'll be already familiar with some of the key points in Lustig's book. If not, this book is a great way to get up-to-speed on the science, politics and economics behind the obesity epidemic. I am personally biased towards a more paleo-informed way of living so Lustig's work was preaching to the converted in my case. What Lustig's book does best is calmly and coherently dig deeply into the factors that led to the emergence of obesity/diabetes/metabolic syndrome as a pandemic but does so in a highly-readable yet informative manner.

4.0 out of 5 stars A well-researched polemic,
Alan Moss. History by the Yard (Orpington) - See all my reviews
This book sets out, in American style, the basis for the author's belief in the causes of the obesity epidemic, and the role that ingredients added to food, especially sweetening agents, have on the world's population in terms of insulin resistance and other conditions.
It is an important book for anybody interested in the causes of obesity (and other related health issues), describes the complicated medical functions in simple language, and is an indictment of the US food industry and the way that US politicians and public have allowed unhealthy, but tasty, food ingredients to develop into a major public health issue.
It is expressed in trenchant terms at times, and is a polemic, in my opinion, but the medical research papers to back up the author's position are comprehensively quoted.
This book demands a response from the authorities concerned about food health and safety, and might well, in years to come, be regarded in a similar way as we now regard the development of arguments against tobacco.
I read it for reasons other than for the causes of obesity, and therefore did not read it as thoroughly as I might have done otherwise. I wish the book were not true; but I suspect that the author is quite correct, and we have to ensure that food ingredients change accordingly.

J. Buss (San Francisco USA) - See all my reviews
In this book Dr. Lustig shares crucial, science-backed knowledge about our bodies, our food environment, and threats to our health from processed foods and added sugar. Everyone, especially our policymakers, should read this book. It takes a big picture look at various factors affecting the human body in our modern industrialized world, from governmental regulation to the biochemistry of metabolism.
Thank you, Dr. Lustig, for giving the world this book.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sometimes difficult, but well worth it,
Baby Boot Camp (Oxfordshire, UK) - See all my reviews
I have read a lot of books about nutrition over the years, and I must admit I kind of expected this to be an updated version of Gary Taube's "Diet Dilemma". But I decided to give it a go, firstly because I heard Dr Lustig interviewed on the radio, and liked his passion and commitment, which he managed to display despite being hurried along by an interviewer who was keen to get onto the next news item. I also admired his credentials - not just a "food journalist" or an alternative health practitioner with an axe to grind (don't get me wrong, some of my best friends are alternative health practitioners!), but a bona fide professor with a solid scientific background and a specialism in paediatric obesity.
The real strength of this book is that it doesn't shy away from the complexity of the obesity problem - it's so easy for a book to sell itself by posing simplistic solutions, but although fructose is clearly the villain of the piece, Dr Lustig also gives air-time to processed food, exercise, environmental chemicals linked to weight gain, effects on the developing foetus, government nutrition guidelines......and much else that I'm having trouble remembering. But the key messages for me are (1) the obese are not gluttonous, weak, despicable people, but victims of the their genes and their environment, constantly driven to eat despite their weight, and (2) a calorie is NOT a calorie, and the calories found in sugar are much more dangerous and harmful than any others (oh, and you can't eat whatever you want as long as you exercise regularly, unless you are an elite, world-class athlete).
I really liked Dr Lustig's writing style, and can forgive him the American focus - although one day it would be nice to have a version of this book which is adapted for the UK market. Why only 4 stars? Although he tried hard, sometimes the science is a bit mind-boggling. As I said, I've read lots of nutrition books and the subject really interested me, but sometimes I just had to put the book down for a while, because the technical descriptions of bio-chemical reactions in the body were complex and overlapping. Which pretty much explains why there is never going to be a single "cure" for obesity - the range of bodily processes and checks and balances, hormones, nutrients etc. which make up our wonderful body-machine are so amazing, diverse, and interactive with our environment, that there is no simple solution. But if this book can contribute to the wider understanding of what is going on with our health, then it's certainly worth taking the extra time to read, and understand.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just desserts for the food industry?,
100% evidence base
A dozen raw 'home truths'
A kernal of humour
0 stuffing
pour onto an icy food industry and leave to defrost before beating well.
A great review of the debilitating effects of sugar and the industries that buttress its production. This book does not over-egg the evidence (or falsify it) and the book is not larded with pointless recipes ("3000 recipes for you not to try at home!")or other types of filler material that you are likely to flick past to get to the main sections.
Lustig is a paediatric endocrinologist so there is a bit of a paediatric slant - but what applies here for kids does for adults too. The sections on public health are as others have pointed out a bit Americanised, but then a British audience is probably looking at a description of the 'shape of things to come.'
At times a little technical (leptins, and insulin), but really, you can't get to the meat of the topic without doing this, and the evidence for the 'final common pathway' which explains why different types of 'diets' work well despite being so different is handled well.
The book works well as a primer to the topic, and while there are lots of hints and tips, if you are looking to effect a personal change (beyond cutting out soft drinks) then you will probably want to read a bit more widely but this would be a great, great start.
Oh, and I loved the ( "wtf?") style of writing.

Cory Chisel performs on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon, releases new album
• Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons team up with Grammy-winning producer and members of The Raconteurs on new album.
By Jim Hagerty
Staff Writer
Just a few years ago, Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons were known to many in Rockford as a band composed of some friends of singer/songwriter and Rockford native Miles Nielsen. Today, the Wandering Sons are cranking out new music and performing nationally at a variety of venues, including a slot on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon this Friday, Oct. 9.
Chisel, an Appleton, Wis., product, has a six-song EP (Cabin Ghosts) and a newly-released, full-length (Death Won't Send a Letter) to his credit.
The new album, produced by Grammy-winning producer Joe Chiccarelli (The Shins, The White Stripes) and released Sept. 29 on iTunes, boasts 12 new songs and is the band's debut on its RCA Label, Black Seal. The Raconteurs' Brendan Benson co-wrote the first single, "Born Again," and his Raconteurs bandmates Jack Lawrence and Patrick Keeler guest on the album, along with My Morning Jacket's Carl Broemel.
The band continues to get airplay and is a sizable concert and club draw. Aside from touring to support his successful solo album, Miles, Miles Nielsen plays bass for the Wandering Sons.
Following their Late Night appearance, Cory Chisel and the Wandering Sons will perform at Carnegie Hall in New York City Saturday, Oct. 10, before embarking on a European tour consisting of shows in Amsterdam, London, Paris, Stockholm, Glasgow and Berlin.
Late Night with Jimmy Fallon airs weeknights at 11:35 p.m. local time on NBC.

I flew from Zurich to Amsterdam about a month ago. Granted, it was a connecting flight to get me to Ireland, but there are plenty of reasons to take a flight without crossing an ocean. Take the size of the US, as well. Having done a check, Google says that going from Los Angeles to New York would take you about 40 hours in the car, compared to flying where it will only take you five hours.
Why would I take a flight if I am not going over an ocean?
You've really lost me here

I think by now I can deal with most annoyances on plains, the idiots who binge drink that smelly wine, the loud children, the seat kickers or people who stink. The one thing I still can't deal with is plane food. OMG, its all microwaved and tastes like garbage.
Posted 29 December 2013 - 16:43
loud kids, loud people in general, seat kicking if it happens but lately I've not had that issue, storing carry on baggage (and there is a lot of it now cause of checked baggage fees) over another persons seat rather your own, those that are in the back of the plane or a seat behind you rushing up to get out first just because they either didn't carry something on or they feel they are special to pass everyone else. I always like to fly and get front seats to get on last and off first to avoid running into other people or whatever and its very annoying to have people do this out of turn of seating numbers.

VIDEO: DTE Smart Meters Making Some metro Detroiters Ill
By Kim Russell
Posted: 02/04/2013
Last Updated: 17 hours and 39 minutes ago
(WXYZ) - There are new electric meters being installed on homes in metro Detroit and they're causing controversy. They are called smart meters and they use electromagnetic frequency to send DTE information about power use.
This gets rid of the need for meter readers and notifies the power company about outages. It also cuts down on costs to the power company, and allows for quicker response should you lose power. Some customers have also used it to monitor their power use online and save money.
However, some say the EMF from the meters is making them sick.
"I suffered headaches, body aches… flu-like symptoms," said Lillian Cusumano.
She says she didn't know about smart meters when she started feeling sick only at one of her two homes. It was a neighbor that pointed out that DTE had just installed a smart meter on the Addison Township home. She says it isn't a coincidence.

Nice egg cups
Patrick from Ottawa, ON– Verified Buyer
Beautiful, durable porcelain. Easy to clean and does not retain stains. Slightly irregular (they are not perfectly upright), though this does not affect function and is perhaps evidence that they are handmade.
Really like them
Debbie from CA– Verified Buyer
The product is great. The bottom isn't entirely glazed. so you do have to be careful when you stack them. Otherwise, I really like this brand and line.

text: .:Bickel:. Autumn RomanceOnce there was a hill.It was a very quaint hill, with little trees and rocks dotting the gentle slopes. Little rabbits could be found on this hill, nibbling on berry bushes, or burrowing holes. Radiant bluejays and robins would sing their hearts out, charming anyone who heard their song. The bright blue sky melted into the sleepy golden hill, an autumn sun reflecting on the willows and plains.At the top of the hill was a tree. It was a very large tree, perhaps a pine or maple tree, but it was a tree all the same. Leaves of many hues, reds and oranges, floated leisurely to the ground, resting on the dewy grass. Gigantic piles were formed from the crisp leaves, as they shriveled from the soft chill of the seasonal breeze, and to the two boys who traveled up the hill, it looked ripe for the taking."I'm gonna beat 'ya there!" A toothy teen boasted as he sprinted towards the pile. His silver hair flapped gracefully as he gained speed."In your dreams, Nickel!" The boy's companion chased

Anyone Selling Tomatos?
I am soon to have a large harvest beginning of some very healthy tomatoes of all sizes and varieties. They all seem to be blemish free, healthy looking tomatoes. I don't use any chemical herbicides in my soil or chemical pesticides on my plants. I did use a little Miracle Gro this year and a little Epsom Salts to jump start them.
I'm wondering if some of you who sell from home, and are not market gardeners can give me an idea of what price to set on nice large size tomatoes and also on cherries? I am not trying to compete with market gardeners, but I can't join a Farmers Market to due health and other reasons, but I do need to sell for some extra "pin money" this year. This seemed like one of the only ways I could earn some extra money from the house. I have worked very hard on this project and hope I'm not supposed to "give away my extras" just because I sell from my home.
Check with your local town or county to make sure you don't need a license.
Is there a "tailgate market" near you that's more for amateurs than the farmer's market is? Or a flea market where some vendors sell produce?
Perhaps an option might be to have someone who already participates in one of the existing markets who would be willing to sell your produce for a percentage.
$3 a pound?!? No way around here. Every farmer would be driving their harvest in a Bentley if that was the case. When I buy at the supermarket I see .59 to .79 for Roma's and .89 - .99 for clusters on the vine. Even the organic heirlooms only fetch 2.79 - 2.99 at the most over-priced yuppie store in the rich suburbs. I can't imagine the grocery stores pay more than 50% of that to farmers.
At the stands on the side of the road between Boone, NC and Johnson City, TN, $1.25 is average for good home grown tomatoes.
The grocery store tomatoes around here aren't much different from season to season. They aren't remotely close to fresh home grown and sell them cheap because they are inferior shipped in from who knows where and no telling when they were picked. It isn't about quality for them, it is about price. I won't give $.59 for them. Sounds like your local stores do a better job than the ones here. I grow my own so the price isn't an issue just responding to the original post.
As other have indicated prices vary greatly from location to location. There is no nationwide pricing. It is whatever the local market will bear so other local growers will be your best source of info. Make some calls around to local farmer's markets etc.
Here it ranges from 50 cents pound to $3-4 per pound depending on quality, variety, color, and type of packaging. We have clients who buy only for canning and aren't as quality conscious - they want bulk pricing. While others want only a few for fresh eating and want specific types, perfect appearance, and colors. They have to pay more for that.
And as missing said above, check the local county codes first. Many will require you have a license, some counties don't care, others require both a license and an inspection of the premisis, then there are those county's that even require specific access for traffic and parking rules be met.
I agree - the .59 per lb tomatoes are nothing you would really want to eat but neither are the $2.79 heirlooms. Only way to get a good tomato seems to be road-side or grow it yourself. I would imagine anyone who has ever eaten a grocery store tomato would probably pay a premium to a home seller.
In my area, I would start at $2. If I was close to selling out I would raise prices until demand slowed down. If they started to rot, I would lower prices until they started to move. Just be flexible and you will find the sweet spot where supply and demand meet.

text: This is an eruption and lava flow information update for Thursday February 12th at 7:45 AM. This morning's assessment continues to show no advancement of any of the down slope flow areas. Multiple surface breakouts and breakouts along both margins upslope of the flow front continue and provide indication that the tube system continues to be supplied and lava from the source is making its way to the down slope areas. All current activity does not pose an immediate threat to area communities. The Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency and Hawaiian Volcano Observatory are maintaining close observations of the flow. Residents and businesses down slope will be informed of any changes in flow activity and advancement. Smoke conditions were light to moderate with a light northwest wind blowing the smoke in a southeast direction. Smoke conditions may increase in some areas and individuals who may be sensitive or have respiratory problems are advised to take necessary precautions and to remain indoors. The Pahoa Community Informational meetings planned for Thursday evenings will be suspended until further notice. The suspension of these meetings is due to the decrease in advancement and limited change in flow activity as well as to allow for community members and our partner agencies to return to normal life and business activities. The eruption and flow will be monitored closely and daily assessments and updates will continue. The community will be kept informed of any changes in the eruption and flow. Anyone seeking information on the status of the flow can visit the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency and Hawaiian Volcano Observatory websites or contact the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency at 935-0031. On behalf of the Hawaii County Civil Defense Agency and our partners we would like to thank everyone for your assistance and cooperation.

Haynes named new CSUSM president
SAN MARCOS -- Karen S. Haynes, who has served as president of the University of Houston-Victoria since 1995, was named president of Cal State San Marcos on Thursday.
Haynes, whose academic specialty is social work, is expected to be installed on Feb. 1 as the third full-time president in the 14-year history of North County's only public university. Her selection is seen as dovetailing with the plans at Cal State San Marcos for a fourth college specializing in health and human services that would offer advanced degrees in nursing and social work.
In a cell phone call from a hotel in Laguna Beach, where she and her husband are staying, Haynes said she was delighted when CSU Chancellor Charles B. Reed called her late Wednesday afternoon to tell her the news.
"I continue to be very excited about what I think the opportunities and challenges are," she said, "and I'm still taking it in that it's going to happen and going to happen quickly."
In a statement, Haynes said she has been presented with a "wonderful opportunity" to work on a diverse, growing campus that enjoys robust support from the community. "I am extremely honored to be coming to Cal State San Marcos," she said, "and especially identify with its mission of quality and access."
CSU spokeswoman Colleen Bentley-Adler said Haynes, 57, was the unanimous choice of the trustees of the 23-campus Cal State system who interviewed three finalists for the San Marcos post at a hotel in Long Beach on Tuesday. The others were Dennis L. Hefner, 57, the president of the State University of New York at Fredonia, and Ephraim P. Smith, 61, the vice president for academic affairs at Cal State Fullerton. All three finalists visited the North County campus during the first week of November.
Sources on campus said Thursday that internal e-mails appeared to be evenly split in support of Haynes and Hefner. "They both had different strengths," said Lourdes Shahamiri, a member of the CSUSM panel that helped select the finalists. "Hefner as an economist was strong on budget matters and Haynes as a social worker was thought to be able to bring people together. We need both."
In a development unrelated to CSUSM, the trustees announced Thursday that they could endorse none of the three finalists for the top post at San Jose State and said they would "extend" that search.
On the San Marcos campus, the reaction to Haynes' selection was positive, though one student, Eric Roper, an officer in the student government, said he "really, really, really" liked Hefner.
Student government President Honey Folk said she was satisfied the trustees made the right choice, adding: "She described herself as a listener, and to me that is one of the most important qualities a new person coming into any organization can have. That says she's interested in learning how the campus works."
Another member of the campus search panel, librarian Bonnie Biggs, called Haynes "very sharp."
Biggs added: "I think that Karen is a seasoned and a successful president (at Victoria), and I think she is very collegial. I sat with her through the thick and the thin of it (the process) and I think she is going to work well with all groups on campus. … I think she was genuinely excited about this campus, but how can you not be?"

Kentucky at risk of missing tourney
We can no longer ignore the elephant in the room: The Kentucky Wildcats, defending NCAA champions and the model of new-age success in college basketball, could miss the 2013 tournament. Really.
Those still reading need to at least face the possibility of sweating out Selection Sunday. The Wildcats are simply good, not great, and enter the heart of the season a long way from their accustomed "lock" status as an NCAA tournament team and Final Four regular.
In fact, the Wildcats are closer to missing the tournament entirely than to playing in April.
Here are several reasons why Kentucky is in danger of missing the 2013 NCAA tournament:

I always tip. Even if the service is bad, I'll leave an incredibly low tip, like $0.25. It's more insulting and lets the waiter know better that you didn't appreciate the service rather than leaving nothing at all.
"There are two kinds of spurs, my friend. Those that come in by the door; and those that come in by the window."
who gives a fuck about societies "norms". I just don't understand the concept of giving a fucking asshole waiting tables my money for doing the job he/she was hired to do. WAIT on me.
wow just tip. it's just a tradition that's been practiced since forever. this is like asking if you should get gifts for christmas or not since you give a shit about the meaning of it.

I never tip. that video actually hits it right on the head. You don't tip the guy making your food, he doesn't see that money. I know a lot of waiters and they get pissed as hell if they don't get a tip, well to fucking bad get a better job if you "have to rely on tips"
And fuck those people who say you are cheap if you don't tip, the fuck you care what someone does with their own money. I NEVER tip, i actually went to hooters and told the chick soon as she brought my check out, she aint getting a tip, and i left the tip part on the check blank, and dared her ass to write herself a tip, cause i'd march right back the next day and get her fine ass fired.

is gifting one dollar harder than gifting someone a tv? gifting on christmas is surely not required. if you were to truly celebrate xmas you would be in church doing something. but you missed the point. why is it so hard to follow a simpler and cheaper tradition, but easily follow another tradition that's expensive and complex? cause these two traditions have the very basic concepts that are similar. gifting.

VISAKHAPATNAM: The nine-day annual chariot festival of Lord Jagannath will begin here on Friday.
The Utkal Sanskrutika Samaj will celebrate the car festival (rath yatra) by pulling the chariot of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra and Subhadra from its temple near All India Radio to Gundicha ghar in Lawson's Bay Colony (near Shanti Ashram) for annual sojourn.
It will conduct bahuda yatra , known as return yatra, on July 12.
The Jagannath temple on the Main Road has also made grand arrangements for the chariot festival.
Like in the past, the car festival will be celebrated in the Lord Jagannath temple complex in Ukkunagaram by the employees and their families of Visakhapatnam Steel Plant.
The festival will commence on Friday with Gundicha yatra and will culminate on July 12 with the return journey. The festival will end with a community dinner on July 13.
As part of cultural programme, Odissi and folk dances will be performed by artists from Orissa.
An exhibition-cum-sale of handloom and handicrafts will be an added attraction near the venue.

According to a study led by Lee Rainie of the Pew Research Center, about 23% of 1005 participants (randomly called via landline and cell phone) had not read a book in the past year, including ebooks, printed books, or audiobooks. With the massive influx of information that students receive on a daily basis thanks to the Internet, it is not a surprising statistic. Not surprising, but quite alarming.

Learn about the power of question formulation in this post. The information comes from the Right Question Institute, and provides a great overview of how to teach your students to ask good questions. The post is split into the following sections:
* The Power of Question Formulation
* Question Formulation in Practice (which includes)
- Step 1: The teacher designs a question focus
- Step 2: Students produce questions
- Step 3: Students work with open-ended and close-ended questions
- Step 4: Students prioritize questions
- Step 5: Teacher and students discuss next steps for using the questions
- Step 6: Students reflect
* A Catalyst for Deeper Learning
* A Small but Significant Shift
There are also some examples of the question formulation technique from classroom teachers.

David Coleman, the current president of the College Board, has a particular take on academic vocabulary; and, if you want to better prepare your students for the new wave of standardized testing under the Common Core and the new SAT, you better get hip to it. As he told the New York Times, Coleman believes academic vocabulary is all around us, and he is out to rid the SAT of "words you will never use again" and plans to instead focus standardized testing on "more common words like synthesis, distill and transform, used in context as they will be in college and in life."

Growing up in downtown Manhattan as the son of a psychiatrist and a college president, David Coleman never wanted for stimulation. At the dinner table, his parents repeatedly told him that it wasn't his exam scores that mattered, but rather the quality of his ideas and inquiry.
Now, Coleman is in charge of the most important test score a student can receive. As president of the College Board, a national education company, he is redesigning the SAT, the standardized test taken by many high school seniors as a part of the college application process. He is also expanding the Advanced Placement program, which offers college-level classes and tests for high school students.

In my [Dave Stuart's] last post, I introduced the concept of keystone habits and invited you, dear Teaching the Core family, to weigh in on what you suspect are the answers to these questions:What are the keystone habits for success in school? How about for specific areas of literacy skill, like reading, writing, speaking, and listening?Which habits are most likely to create a "waterfall" of further behavior shifts, thereby solidifying our students' chances of long-term success?
There were so many great replies to those questions — please check out the comments from last post. So what are my answers to these questions? Let's get into it.
