Gallery: Recyclable Double Helix Tower Allows Swedish Residents to Spy ...
Design firm Tham & Videgård recently won first place in a design competition hosted by the town of Järfälla, Sweden for this intriguing spiraling tower. The Double Helix tower will be used as an observation deck in the Järfälla. From it, residents of the town will be able to view progress on the Barkarbystaden urban development project as it unfolds just west of Stockholm.
The tower features double stairs that allow different groups of visitors to move up and down without interruption. Painted in two shades of red paint, the double helix tower is easily visible from afar, creating a new landmark destination for a growing city.
Designed to be constructed out of wood, the tower will be dismantled at the summit of Barkabystaden's projected 25 year development program. Then, the materials will be recycled in an urban recreational park for both children and adults. It isn't certain when construction will begin, but watch this space for news!

There was no eye contact; in fact I could hardly see his eyes under the hoodie he was wearing. "My life doesn't count for much." He looked despondently at the Christmas gift that I had secured for my wife. I interviewed him for another 15 minutes. Do you have family, where do you live, where have you worked? Every answer had a short dead end. At the end of 35 minutes he said, "I got to go." I gave him some benevolence cash and he said thanks without a smile.

Last April, I received an phone call from my brother in Washington State. He said, "If there is any way you can get away for a while and come down and visit Mom, that would be good." Mom is 83 and hasn't been doing so well since Dad passed away a year last August. Some of you have been there, so you know where I am going with this.
When I was new to Alaska, I would spend a lot of time gazing up at the heavens looking for the Northern Lights. I would drive out to the darkest places outside Anchorage to peer up into the sky hoping to catch a glimpse of them. But they eluded me.
It was that first Christmas in Alaska I recall reading the scripture on Christmas Eve. This time the words took on new meaning.
"The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. (Isaiah 9:2)"

Project Hope fundraisers planned
As a pastor, I've come to loathe the sound of my phone ringing early on a Sunday morning--it's never a good call. I don't think ever in the history of the church has anyone ever called a pastor or ministry leader on a Sunday morning to let them know that they woke up early, their kids are all healthy, they feel great, will be there on time, or any combination thereof.

It's only one day after Thanksgiving and we still want more. Corporations are excited about moving out of the red and into the black in the pursuit of making profits. Consumers love the rush of a bargain and getting more. Isn't it odd that our bellies are still stuffed from the day before and there is still the desire for filling our lives with more?

CeBIT Open Source Project Lounge -- CAcert
CAcert -- community based certificate authorityBy
CAcert is among the 15 projects that will present their work at CeBIT, offering community based security certificates.
In a nutshell - describe your project in a few words:
CAcert is a community based certificate authority with the objective of providing a free, open and transparent public key (PK) infrastructure for all its community members. It seeks to provide an enhanced experience in the virtual world by connecting the virtual identities of the Internet with real world entities.
When did the project begin?
In 2002 with CAcert.org and in 2003 with CAcert, Inc.
How many active members does the project have?
3,257 active assurers (those passing our Assurance Challenge) and 19,067 participants, as of January 18, 2010.
How did the project come about?
Duane Groth wanted to secure the WLAN network of his hometown, which was too expensive, so started the community.
What would make a CeBIT visitor interested in your booth?
Three reasons:
1. Anyone can become a community member to use free certificates as long as they get assurance of identity as part of our Organization Assurance program.
2. Small companies, organizations and schools with smaller budgets can get information about how they can add value for their customers or members with the help of client certificate logins to their Internet portals.
3. Linux distributions and software developers can learn how to extend their software with features so that Internet portal or application users are assured secure access.
Who do you make your software for?
Community members have the choice to create client certificates, e-mail certificates (signing and encryption) or server certificates (SSL and TLS) and sign documents or code. They can also sign PGP/PGP keys (engage in keysigning parties).
Where do you see your biggest current challenge?
Browser integration of root certificates into the operating systems require audits handled by the community. These audits are time consuming.
If you were to hire a full-time project developer now, what problem should he or she be ready to solve?
The requirement for audits spawned a new software development project called "Birdshack" during the spring of 2009. We need developers to implement this project.
Under which license is the software currently offered?
GNU General Public License v2, June 1991.

Project implementation under phase I with funds from JICA
Residents of 96 slums in Bangalore will soon have access to regular drinking water and a systematic underground drainage system.
Scaling up its AusAID Master Plan Project that was implemented between 2000 and 2002, the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) has now roped in four non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to mobilise community support for connecting the city's 362 slums with drinking water and sanitary lines.
The AusAID project had covered three slums of Cement Huts, Sudhamanagar and Chandranagar.
Being taken up as a slum development component under the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA)-funded Cauvery II Stage IV Phase Project, this effort is to ensure that slum dwellers are not deprived of piped water and sanitation.
BWSSB Engineer-in-Chief T. Venkataraju told The Hindu here on Sunday that inadequate services to the urban poor were posing a major challenge to the board in terms of unauthorised connections and related problems.
The NGOs were entrusted with the task of convincing the slum dwellers and mobilising their support for metered connections. The NGOs have completed conducting socio-economic and technical surveys in 96 slums under the first phase, he said.
"They are likely to submit a preliminary report in a day or two after which we will finalise and start the process of implementing the project in these 96 slums. While the house connections, including pipelines, accessories and water meters, will be provided free, the slum dwellers will have to pay for the quantity of water they use after the supply starts," Mr. Venkataraju said.
He said that based on the NGOs report, the water board could even consider further subsidising water tariff for these communities. The supply will start soon after the completion of the Cauvery II Stage IV Phase Project, he said.
The four NGOs, Mythri Sarva Seva Samithi, Indian Community Development Service Society, New Entity for Social Action and Mahatma Gandhi Trust, were chosen from among 120 organisations through a tendering process, he said.
Chief Engineer (Cauvery) Narayan said that the job of the NGOs was to conduct a door-to-door survey to find out the socio-economic status of the family. "The survey is also to find out whether the family had access to safe drinking water, how much money they spent on water and whether they were ready to get metered connections installed at their doorstep," he explained.
Quoting a recent study by CIVIC in 23 city slums, S. Harish Babu of Mythri Sarva Seva Samithi said that the study had revealed that collecting water was a major problem for slum dwellers. "Hence, individual connections will help," he said.
Clarifying that the NGOs were not working for enhancing the water board's revenue by propagating metered connections, Mr. Babu said: "Our job is to explain to the residents the ground reality. We are even trying to persuade the board to fix a highly subsidised tariff slab for slum connections," he added.

When I came across the Nomiku at Engadget Expand last November, I was intrigued. I had heard of sous vide cooking, but had never seen it for myself. As someone who almost never cooks, it was interesting to watch the food cooking before my eyes, and I knew I had to try it out.
When the LEGO Friends line was introduced, it was met with mixed reviews. Many little girls loved it and LEGO builders liked the colors that were introduced with the line, but it was often derided for its more doll-like minifigures and its conformation to female stereotypes. It was such discussions, and the desire to utilize the same figures in order to the break the stereotypes that they had been assigned, that led me to start the LEGO Super Friends Project.
For the better part of the last year, I have been building, wiring, coding and writing projects for my first book. After all the months put in to the creation of the book, I am proud to say that my first book, Arduino and LEGO Projects is now available from Apress Books!
Earlier this summer, I was trying to think of some new ideas to build for the upcoming BrickFair. At the same time, I was watching the new series of Doctor Who and the two ideas came together. An amalgam of the Doctor's time travel device and the Lego bricks with a technological twist was the goal.

No cross walk at New Bern and N King Charles ► Open102 North King Charles Road Raleigh, NC 27610, USA
At the intersection of New Bern Rd and N King Charles Rd there are stoplights and a bus stop, but no way to safely access that stop, not to mention cross New Bern safely as there are no cross walks marked on the pavement nor are there crosswalk signals in place.
People cross this intersection all day long at their own risk. There are no sidewalks on New Bern so there is no safe way to get to the nearest crosswalk. My kids are old enough to go by themselves to patronize the shopping center across New Bern from Longview Gardens but no safe way to get there.· Reported by Jessica Bowen · Share · Flag Flagged

The midtown news is a hassle, and a nuisance, however, I found that the quickest (quicker than posting on here) and most effective (more effective than a verbal tirade to the city that can't solve the problem, by law) was to call the N & O and request they not deliver to my home. The papers stopped arriving immediately. Imagine that.

Pretty sad that Raleigh PD can't enforce a simple littering ordinance. I'll be throwing my trash on the steps of city hall with "media stories" enclosed (my dog should be able to write similar quality editorials).
I am also quite frustrated that there are probably hundreds of rotting sacks of paper pulp on each run I do through my neighborhood. Want to know who is out of town? Just look for the house that hasn't been able to clean up the mess.

Acknowledged City of Raleigh 4 (Verified Official)
This has been referred to the correct department. Please note that Poole Road is a NCDOT maintained highway and they maintain, it in some instances. With that being said we do not have unlimited resources that would allow us to pick-up trash all over the City. Our hope is that citizens would be mindful of throwing trash away in places it does not belong. We will report back on this.
StillSurprised (Guest)
It is truly upsetting to so often hear that potholes, trash and other problems are bypassed because the state has jurisdiction for roads inside the Raleigh city limits. This "It's not my problem" needs to be worked out with the state.
I do not think anyone expects the city to constantly pick up after the bad elements who throw trash. We do expect at least the retail property owners to be required to place sufficient trash cans on the borders of their lots and for all property owners to be held responsible for the trash on their property and be fined if they do not keep their lots clean. Those throwing trash need to be fined and, yes, there are ways they can be caught.

As a type/design exercise, it's nice. Couldn't really judge it as a logo without knowing a lot more about the project, though.
it was just made for fun, noone is going to use it
Not the type ID section Riccardo :)
Ooops! I'm very sorry!
Well, I think the logo is strong. It reminds me of some geometric style of arabic script. Maybe not so easily readable for non-english speakers.
Very cool.

I'm 65 and just started swimming again. These are the best earplugs I have ever used. However, they are expensive as you throw them away after use.
Block sound better than any foam earplug and don't irritate the ear canal like foam ear plugs do.
I have been using these wax plugs for years and I just cannot sleep without them now. They offer maximum noise protection for me. They are a little bit difficult to get used to but, I think, much better than foam. I cut them in half and roll them in my fingers before I put them in my ears. The trick is to push them in and build up a little vacuum in the ear canal.

I wonder if it's possible to send multiple variables at once to the server? For example:
$client->AddTheseValues($a, $b, $c);
The server/MySQL would then add those values into the database:
public function AddTheseValues($a, $b, $c) {
$this->sql = "INSERT INTO `records` (`a`,`b`,`c`) VALUES
$result = mysql_query($this->sql);
The above procedure doesn't seem to work with me; I'm only able to send ONE variable at time. When I send more than one, the database won't get updated and weirdly I get no error messages.

My Kitchen Remodal
skipper1960October 25, 2013
I remodeled my kitchen this past summer. I sanded and re-stained all the cabinets from a dark mahogany to a cherry red. Added black knobs. We then replaced the countertop and put in a awesome Blanco granite sink in a biscuit color and toped it of with a oil rubbed bronze Moen faucet.
Finished up the backsplash with some new tile.
I hope the before and after pictures come up.

Plant garlic in bed where carrots had worms?
mlynneo(5)August 24, 2012
I have several 4x8 raised beds and I try to "rotate" my crops carefully. This year I got 33 gorgeous garlic bulbs in a bed and had planned to plant this Fall in the next bed over. However, my carrots in that bed had really bad worm holes in them. Black, gross. I didn't see any actual worms in them, but they had obviously been there. They could be wireworms. They could be carrot fly maggots. My question is "should I still plant my garlic in that bed or try to find another place and leave that one empty for a year?

Winemaker Challenge VI
March 21 & 22, 2015
Sixth Annual Winemaker ChallengeInternational Wine Competition to 'Score' Medal-Winning Wines with Numerical Rating
The sixth annual Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition took place March 21 and 22 with another impressive lineup of renowned winemakers coming together at this unique event to evaluate and rate newly released wines.
Winemaker Challenge is one of only two wine competitions in the United States that utilizes winemakers exclusively to judge each entry.
This event was moved from its traditional January dates on the U.S. wine competition calendar to better position itself to address young wines coming to market for the first time in early spring.
And this year there's a twist, with each medal-winning wine receiving a numerical rating as well as a platinum, gold or silver award.
The Winemaker Challenge is organized by nationally syndicated wine columnist Robert Whitley, a veteran of more than 20 years at running wine competitions. Robert's 'Wine Talk' column is distributed weekly by the Creators Syndicate. Robert also is publisher of Wine Review Online, which will post detailed reviews and scores of all platinum winners shortly after completion of the Winemaker Challenge.
Winemaker Challenge is the first in the series of wine "Challenge" competitions created by Robert, beginning with the Critics Challenge in 2004. The Critics Challenge, in which all of the judges are notable wine journalists, was followed in 2009 by the Sommelier Challenge, with a team of judges drawn exclusively from the ranks of certified sommeliers.

Ballotpedia's 2013 ballot measure coverage plan
Welcome to Ballotpedia! On this page you'll find everything you need to know about Ballotpedia's ballot measure election coverage for 2013. This includes state and local ballot measures as well as recall efforts. Additionally, below you'll find a preliminary list of unique election reports to expect for the year.
If you have any questions about election coverage or any of the projects please contact the Ballot Measures team.click here. For Local Ballot Measures, click here.
Our coverage
For the fifth consecutive year, Ballotpedia will cover all statewide ballot measures across the country, and local measures for 11 states.
If you are interested in volunteering to expand our local ballot measure coverage, we'd love to have you! Click here for more information.
In addition to election coverage, we are always working to build our database of historical statewide measures, as well as recall efforts. To read more about those projects click here for state measures and here to read about recall efforts.
Statewide ballot measures
Historically, elections on odd-numbered years see about forty-five measures on average; there were thirty-four in 2011.
This page features election results for all 31 ballot questions that were on the November 5, 2013 general election ballot in 6 states. Additionally, results are listed below for some of the most notable local measures and local recall measures on the November 5 ballot.
Thirty-one ballot questions were certified for a spot on six statewide ballots in 2013. This was the final count for all statewide ballots. In total, 24 were approved and seven were defeated.
Of the 31 ballot measures voters faced in 2013, only 3 were petitioned onto the ballot.
Though the official number of ballot measures was 31, five of the seven measures that were on the ballot in Washington were non-binding advisory questions. A provision of a 2007 ballot measure, Initiative 960, directly led to the placement of these advisory votes on the ballot. Under that approved measure, a statewide advisory vote is required on all tax increases passed by the state legislature. Initiative 960 was sponsored by Tim Eyman and originally required a two-thirds supermajority in the legislature or a legally binding vote of the people to approve any tax increases or eliminations of tax credits. Though the supermajority requirement was struck down by the Washington State Supreme Court in 2013, the advisory vote clause was left intact.
Colorado had the latest signature petition deadline in 2013, which fell on Monday, August 5. However, finalizing the ballot was delayed by several weeks due to an extended signature confirmation effort for Colorado's Amendment 66. Supporters turned in 165,706 signatures by the deadline, nearly double the number required. However, after taking a random sample of 8,286 signatures, 3,641 were determined to be invalid. Supporters needed to attain a verification rate of at least 110 percent per any random sample; the sample rate from the signatures selected yielded only 107.88 percent. This triggered the tedious process of reviewing the signatures "line-by-line," delaying the official certification of the measure. Secretary of State Scott Gessler ultimately determined that 89,820 signatures were valid, thus allowing voters to decide whether or not to raise taxes in order to collect approximately $950 million for public education funding.
Seven states were identified as having the potential to see measures on the ballot in 2013: Colorado, Maine, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Texas, and Washington. Louisiana is another state which often features ballot measures during odd-numbered election years. Some ballot measures were slated for the 2013 ballot, but the legislature was unable to create a special election for this year. Therefore, those ballot measures were moved to the 2014 ballot.
To read week-by-week reports detailing how the 2013 ballot came together, see the archive of Tuesday Count reports.
Throughout the year, Ballotpedia staff tracks all proposals including legislative referrals and those made via the initiative & referendum process. This includes tracking filed initiatives, providing updates following petition drive deadlines, maintaining an up-to-date list of potential measures in each state and keeping track of measures that did not qualify for the ballot.
Every Tuesday at 4 pm CT, Ballotpedia publishes a report called The Tuesday Count that provides the latest in ballot measure (state and local), recall, lawsuit and ballot measure legislation news. That report highlights the current certification number for the year. On Ballotpedia's Tuesday Count for 2012 you can find a weekly breakdown of when statewide certifications occurred.
To view a more detailed picture of currently certified state ballot measures, take a look at the Ballot Measure Scorecard. This page highlights when certified measures will appear on the ballot as well as the type of measure.
Throughout the year, we'll be covering efforts to support and oppose ballot measure campaigns, including campaign ads, campaign finance totals, controversies and much more.
- For questions about statewide coverage contact the Ballot Measures Team.
Ballot measure law
In addition to covering campaign details for all certified measures, Ballotpedia staff tracks lawsuits filed against certified measures and proposals. You can find a list of such lawsuits for 2013 here.
Just as in 2012, we will continue monthly tracking of proposed changes to ballot measure law (the Ballot Law Update). These proposals can, for example, amend the constitution to permit initiatives or raise the number of signatures required to get a measure on the ballot.
- For questions about ballot law contact Eric Veram.
Local ballot measures
Ballotpedia currently tracks a total of 11 states at the local level, based on the availability of comprehensive online election information. Those 11 states include: Arizona, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Missouri, Michigan, Ohio, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin. When additional information in other states is made available, it is added to the growing local database.
Every year, Ballotpedia keeps track of all locally held ballot measure elections. You can find the list for 2013 here. That page provides a big picture overview of all of the local elections covered by Ballotpedia and summarizes election results.
In addition to the big picture overview, elections are categorized by date and county. For example: March 6, 2012 ballot measures in Ohio and Brown County, Ohio ballot measures. County pages provide readers a historical look at past measures that appeared on ballots in that particular county.
For a look at all past election dates, news, county lists and links to local laws, visit the local state pages. Example: Local ballot measures, Ohio or Local ballot measures, California.
- For questions about local coverage contact email@example.com.
For 2013, much like our state and local ballot measure coverage, we are covering scheduled recalls as well as proposed efforts. You can find a list of upcoming recalls here.
For a historical look by state and year, take a look here and here, respectively.
For up-to-date recall news either regularly visit the Recall portal or sign up to receive the weekly Tuesday Count.
General election
Leading up to the November 5, 2013 general election, Ballotpedia ballot measure coverage will include a series of reports and analyses providing readers with a preview of what's to appear on ballots across the United States. (See below for more details).
On the night of November 5, coverage for state and local ballot measures as well as recalls will include:
- real-time results for all statewide measures scheduled to appear on November 5 ballots
- real-time results for statewide recall efforts (this includes state representatives and state executives)
- real-time results for 15 local ballot measures that featured noteworthy local campaigns[1]
For an example of election coverage, take a look at 2011. 2011 ballot measure election results features election results for state and local measures only. November 8, 2011 election results features results for all elections covered by Ballotpedia. In 2011, that included state and local ballot measures, state legislatures, state executive officials and recalls.
2013 General election coverage will include:
- state and local ballot measures
- statewide recalls
- Congress
- state legislatures
- state executive officials
Original analysis
A variety of election-related reports are produced throughout the year for state and local ballot measures, ballot law and recall. Some of those reports include:
- "The Breakdown" series - published prior to the general election. It provides a regional breakdown and summary of certified ballot measures.
- A series of about 5 reports that analyze various features about statewide measures including a look at lawsuits and political topics.
- A two-part look at local school bond and tax measures.
- An annual look at approval rates for all proposed local measures.
- The Ballot Law Update: Year in review - a look at ballot legislation and lawsuits.
- For all your 2013 election information (including state resources such as voter guides and state blue books) check the Election portal.

- ↑ Due to the large number of local measures generally scheduled to appear on ballots on the night of the General election, only 15 will be selected. ALL local measure results will be available in the days following the General election.
- ↑ Veto referendums, in most states, require a deadline of a certain amount of days after a targeted law is passed. Therefore, the deadlines in this chart do not apply to veto referendums. Deadlines can be found in a proposed veto referendum's article on Ballotpedia.

- ↑ Ohio uses both direct and indirect initiated statues. For the Legislature to consider an indirect statute, 115,574 signatures is needed, which equals to three percent of the total number of ballots casted in the 2010 Governor's election. If the Legislature fails to qualify the statute, a sponsor must collect an additional 115,574 signatures.

Room Modes and Deep Tone Reproduction in Control Rooms for Music Monitoring
Control rooms for music monitoring sometimes suffer from irregularities in reproduction of deep tones under 100 Hz. These originate from Eigentons or room modes with their standing waves and landscape of modes. Measurements in control rooms have been made and have shown that these modes can be influenced by the shape of the room, reflectors in corners or on the wall or tuned resonators with high absorption. It is of advantage to use variable absorbers with a set resonance frequency which can be mounted in an optimal position. Measurements and provisions will be discussed.

Softball: Tigers take consolation at Mankato
The Farmington softball team finally started its season Friday, and it did so right where last season ended -- at Caswell Park in North Mankato.
After 13 cancellations and postponements over the last month, the Tigers finally got to dig in their spikes against New Ulm in the opening round of the Mankato East tournament. The last time the team took the field it was at the same complex against Bloomington Jefferson in the consolation round of the Class 3A state tournament last June.

Perfect One-Dish Dinners: All You Need for Easy Get-Togethersby Pam Anderson
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In Perfect One-Dish Dinners, the New York Times best-selling author Pam Anderson shares her secret for having people over without breaking stride: Make just one dish. Instead of a parade of offerings, she focuses attention on a single main course—a rustic tart, paella, grilled platter, or homey stew. Perfect One-Dish Dinners showcases about forty such meals, perfect for every season and occasion, all designed to wow guests, calm the cook, and relieve the dishwasher at the end of the night.
Stews for All Seasons
Worldly Casseroles
Roasting Pan Complete
Big Summer Salads and Grilled Platters
But thats not all. If the cook wants to make something extra, Pam provides a compatible appetizer, salad, and dessert for every one dish. And as a special bonus, she throws in "nearly instant" alternatives for each—more than 200 mixable, matchable recipes. Whether for a book group, church get together, birthday party, or family supper, Perfect One-Dish Dinners makes easy, shareable meals perfectly doable.
"Bestselling author and USA Weekend food columnist Pam Anderson (The Perfect Recipe) continues her quest for perfection in this accessible, engaging collection of meals based around a singular dish. Grouped into four sections — summer salads and grilled platters; casseroles; the roasting pan; and stews — Anderson smartly mixes classics like Osso Bucco, Paella, and Lasagna with riffs on standards like Coq Au Vin (here with white wine and spring vegetables) and a Spanish beef stew (with bell peppers, chickpeas, saffron, paprika, and orange). Complementary appetizers, sides, desserts, and wine pairings are thoughtfully included for every dish, enabling cooks to expand their menus and palates even further; virtually all sides and accompaniments are within the capabilities of most home cooks, but those pressed for time or patience will appreciate Anderson's suggestions for easy off-the-shelf substitutes. Whether readers are new to cooking or simply looking for new ideas for meals, Anderson's winning collection is sure to encourage and inspire. (Sept.) In this dense text, Guthrie, an editor at the magazine Christianity Today, draws conclusions about Jesus from 300 questions that Christ asked in the scriptural Gospels and the Book of Acts (e.g., 'Who do you say that I am?'). Jesus used questions to start relationships with strangers and to force humanity to face its own corruption. He is described not as an easygoing man but as the frustrated God who requires 'discernment and a rational discipleship.' Guthrie demonstrates that Jesus answered in black-and-white terms and would have rejected postmodernist interpretations. In the last seven chapters, Guthrie shows how some of Jesus' questions place him in opposition to gay marriage, premarital sex, etc. While the book's angle is unique, the questions are lost amid its overarching themes and present-day implications; readers may need to use the index to locate the questions in each chapter. Better organization or design could also have provided clarity. Yet those who stick with this challenging read will find that Jesus' questions are relevant today, and his answers more practical than ever. (Nov.)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright PWyxz LLC)
A "New York Times"-bestselling author shares her secret for having people over without breaking stride: make just one dish. From paella to homey stew, this volume showcases about 40 such meals, perfect for every season and occasion. Full color.

Tops & Bottoms (1995)
by Janet Stevens
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book is about a lazy bear and a clever hare who make a deal to grow crops together, and the hair tricks the lazy bear. He plants crops and ends up tricking the bear to take all bad stuff while he gets the good stuff. I thought the book was fun and I think kids would really enjoy it. For an extension of this book you could discuss with the students what they would do different if they were the bear so they wouldn't get tricked.
This is a worthwhile read in my opinion. It is about a Brown Bear, and a Hare, and all the plating and crop work they do. Brow Bear is very lazy, and Hare is sort of a trickster. However all in all this pushes readers to think of the subject of hard work, and how perseverance and never giving up will get you your end goal.
The writing this book repeats a lot, yet I don't think that is a disadvantage at all. I also liked how it teaches kids about taking turns, and getting rewarded for the work YOU particularly do. The illustrations matched the text, and the plot was clearly established. All in all, good read!
The cover of the book shows a brown bear sleeping on a chair upside down with his head on the foot rest. We learn early in the book that the bear is very lazy. He has inherited most of his fortune and has not done anything to further himself.
The Hare family develops a plan that unfolds over three business transactions between the lazy bear and the clever hares. In each transaction, the hare tricks the bear by allowing him to pick the tops or bottoms. Once the bear picks, the hare plants the crop that benefits the hare. Top and Bottoms will help teach young children how different vegetables grow.
This book was fun to read and the con work by the hare was funny. It shows children the importance of attention to detail, hard work, and using your wits to overcome obstacles.
I liked this book because it was funny and had amazing illustrations. The story is about a hare and a bear working as business partners, except the hare always tricks the bare into getting the worse end of the deal. The bear finally has enough and decides not to be business partners anymore. This book has a lot of repetitive language which is beneficial for emerging readers. It allows them to say the lines with the book from memory, which boosts their confidence when learning how to read.
I really liked this book. I loved the story line, the illustrations and the creativity used to design the layout of the book, so basically everything in this book, I loved. The book starts off going vertically (up and down) instead of side to side. I really loved this aspect of the book. This gets the readers engaged in the book I believe. They have to turn the pages of the book and turn the direction that the book is read in. This really helps the child learn how to first read a book and which direction to read it in.
The illustrations in the book are very colorful and bright which really grabs the readers attention when reading the book. It also paints a very vivid picture about the events of the story. This made it easier to understand what was happening in the book. Personally I believe that the pictures in the book make the story and that the words aren't really needed. That is how good I think the illustrations are.
I also really liked the message in this story which is to not be lazy because then you miss out on different opportunities. The bear in the book was lazy and because of that he didn't get what he wanted. This book is good to teach young readers to not be lazy and to go after what they want in life. Overall, I would recommend this book to everyone. It is that terrific.

Hare solves his family's problems by tricking rich and lazy Bear in this funny, energetic version of an old slave story. With roots in American slave tales, Tops & Bottoms celebrates the trickster tradition of using one's wits to overcome hardship. "As usual, Stevens' animal characters, bold and colorful, are delightful. . . . It's all wonderful fun, and the book opens, fittingly, from top to bottom instead of from side to side, making it perfect for story-time sharing."--Booklist

I formatted my hard drive but now I try to get the screen resolution 1680 x 1050 I can only get 1280 x 1024 . I drag to the right it becomes 1600 x 1200 but when I click apply it returns to 1280 x 1024. Can anyone please help me over this problem. I had the 1680 x 1850 before I did the format, the Monitor is a 22 in. Thanks Mac

Did you reinstall the graphics drivers?

Agree with Woolwell , you need to reinstall the correct graphics drivers .
Open device manager , select Hardware , scroll down to graphics and double click on it , click on the Drivers tab , select Update Driver and let Windows search for the correct one .

Thanks for the replies, I have just started my PC & windows message that was some updates to download. So I clicked yes & after they were installed there was a message from NVIDEA Control Panel telling me that the resolution had changed. So I did not have to do what you told me. I had a good St Patricks Day & I am feeling very sorry for myself today, so thakfully I did not have to do any fiddling about with my PC. Thanks again Mac

In this way of thinking, the universe we see is merely a bubble in a much larger cosmos. This cosmos is filled with other bubbles, all of which are other universes where the laws of physics may be dramatically different to ours.

Was It Fair That Jack Used His Shorts as a Pattern on Project Runway Last Night?
It's only episode three, but things on Project Runway are starting to heat up both on and off the runway. This week's challenge? Menswear for Today Show correspondent and former NY Giants running back Tiki Barber. Needless to say, the designers freaked! But menswear means male models — and I'm never one to argue with that. Elisa continued in the eccentric vein, refusing to touch her model even though he told her he wants to do ethno botany, a subject you'd think she'd be into. Christian's self-assurance continues to amuse, and Heidi Klum speaks of David Beckham with more than a little disdain.
For a full run-down of the "Fashion Giant" episode, be sure to check out what Buzz has to say. And don't forget to ask Nina Garcia your burning questions!
