Wallabies look to extend flawless record
ESPNscrum Staff
November 20, 2012
Australia celebrate a score against Italy in 2011 © Getty Images
Italy will hope to record their first ever win over the Wallabies when the two teams come face to face on Saturday in Florence.
The two sides have met 14 times in total and the Wallabies have won all 14 encounters. Their first clash came all the way back in 1983, with the Aussies triumphing 29-7 in Rovigo. David Campese kicked three conversions and a penalty that day and the legendary Australian wing always seemed to enjoy facing the Azzurri. Indeed, he scored six tries in six games against the Italians, the highlight of which was his hat-trick in a 55-6 win in Rome in 1988, which remains the Wallabies' biggest ever margin of victory over the Italians.
The Aussies have, for most part, had things all their own way in their games against Italy but they did suffer an almighty scare in Brisbane in 1994 when the Azzurri, inspired by fly-half Luigi Troiani, who kicked five penalties, came desperately close to pulling off a sensational victory. However, the home side, for whom George Gregan was making his Test debut, eventually ran out 23-20 winners.
And the two teams faced off against each other during the 2011 World Cup with the Wallabies emerging 32-6 victors.
Australia v Italy All-time record: Played: 14 Italy won 0, Australia won 14
Biggest winning margin: Ita: N/A, Aus: 49, 55-6 at Stadio Flaminio, 1988;

My Flowers!!!! Also need ID
Hi guys, Ive had many seedums, tropical plants, bonsai, vegetables and aquatic plants flower but Ive never had anything that had big flowers....until now!!! Im so happy, Ive been waiting for my echinopsis to flower. Now someone can finally ID it. I just love how big the flowers are. I also love the zebra flower as its the most interesting looking flower yet. The aloe is on its way as well. This aloe lost a few of its bottom leaves during this past winter. They just dried out, I dont know if I didnt water it enough or I shouldve misted it.
ID please
First plant is most definitely Huernia zebrina 'Life Saver Plant'. Would love to own one some day and see those crazy flowers in action!
Thanks everyone, I know the id of all the plants except for the pink flower one, I think its most likely the ox but wanted to confirm with someone.
I really didnt think my aloe wouldve made it throught winter but it did and it gave me such a surprise with its flower. It is growing at its slow pace but flowers are the best thing Ive seen.

Do you have some kind of "charging station" for your I-stuff?
DH and I each have an iPhone and an iPad. Every day, we have up to 4 devices sitting on a section of our kitchen counter (fortunately not in the main part of the kitchen -- it's in a pass-thru area between kitchen and dining room) charging away, and it's starting to annoy me. I've seen the devices sold online that have different methods of standing the phones/pads up while being plugged into the bottom, or whatever. There are quite a few out there with different looks. Do you have one? Any recommendations? We seem to be taking up far too much counter space with our iPads and phones laying around the counter top. There must be a better way!
Putting them elsewhere really isn't an option -- this is the most convenient location we have near outlets (older house, not a lot of outlets available in other rooms).
We had a cute white wooden charging station from Pottery barn with a little drawer, and a place for the charging cords to come out and a shelf for them to sit on. It took up a lot of space and became another catchall for junk. Plus, it was really too big for a counter. And a bit too small for iPads, even minis. Another problem we experienced was that whenever anyone needed a charging cord in another room, he or she would remove it from the charging station and forget to put it back, so half the time it there weren't enough cords available,
So my solution was to change out at least one electrical outlet in each room to one that has a single ac dc plug thingie and two USB receptors. Then I made sure every room had a couple of USB cords plugged into those receptors. Here's what happened with that: first, if you don't use "real" apple cords there is no way to know if they'll work, even the guaranteed amazon ones. Second, the cords are not long enough to continue to use the devices while they are plugged in, so that is another problem. Then the worst problem of all--- USB charge cords plugged directly into a USB receptacle charge at the speed of an octogenarian turtle, and I mean SLOW. When the USBs are plugged into an adapter which is then plugged into an outlet they charge about 3x as fast. I have experimented with every outlet we have and this holds for all of them. PLUS, when you have TWO USBs plugged into a single outlet, one of them may not charge at all. And the other will still charge slowly.
Additionally, when all our kids are home visiting at the same time and go back to their various schools,apartments and jobs, the charging cords disappear!
So my recommendation for daytime is to not change your outlets to USB receptors or even half USB, but get a USB acdc adapter for at least one outlet in every room and leave it in (or the Beltone thing described below), an extra long APPLE brand only charging cord for that adapter, and mark it in some way so that it can be identified as a house cord, like tying a red twist tie on it. We finally abandoned the charging station now just plug our devices into whatever room we happen to be in at the time.
The Beltone thing actually plugs into the outlets (therefore making the USBs work like those in adapters) that has gives you USB receptors and acdc plug ins. We have these in the outlets in our respective bathroom vanities. That's where my phone goes at night, it's ready the next morning. Dh's phone has to be plugged in next to the bed for night calls, but it's in an adapter to charge faster. No docking stations as they don't work with many phone cases.
Sorry this has turned I to such a long post, but we have been trying to find the "perfect" solution in a multi iPhone, multi ipad family. Not sure we have found it yet!
It's kind of hard to explain, but we keep all our devices in a drawer in a sideboard/buffet type thing. The drawer sits above a cabinet door and that side of the buffet happened to be in front of a wall outlet. So we took the plywood back off that section of the sideboard and plugged in a big outlet strip into the wall and placed it on the shelf in that cabinet. We then plugged the charging cords for all our devices into the outlet strip and ran them up behind the drawer and pulled them into the drawer. Dh labeled each cord with the name of the corresponding device. So now we can put our devices in the drawer and plug them into the cords, which are connected to the outlet strip in the cabinet below. And this one smallish drawers holds a ton of stuff - ipad, a couple kindles and several phones. As an added bonus, we also put the wireless printer in the cabinet below the drawer so now I can print from anywhere in the house and never have to look at the printer. The whole setup is really handy and I'm pleased that we were able to do it -- it has hidden the whole mess completely from view.
We use the small charger shown above. We keep one in the kitchen (I usually use that one) and my husband has one on his bedside table. Our iphones don't need to be charged daily, but he charges his every night as he uses his phone as his alarm. I also have one of those chargers at work that I occasionally use. For the ipad and nook, those aren't used that often (we use our laptop more), and we have a charger for those in our bedroom. We have a chest in there that we just lay the device on top of it while charging. It's convenient for us, but out-of-sight for others.
I have one of those charging stations similar to the Pottery Barn one and it was great when just dh and I had phones. However, the spots for the phones are not the same width and only one is wide enough to hold an iPhone and now we both have iPhones.
We have three iPhones (dd has one), five iPads, two iTouches and one regular phone, so yes, lots of electronics. I could do without all the iPads but our kids' school actually requires them next year for all middle/high school students so we just got them and they received them for their birthdays.
Dh and I usually charge our iPads upstairs in our bedroom. The other three get charged in a variety of places. Phones in the Pottery Barn like thing, except for dd who charges hers in her room.
When we redo our kitchen, I'm adding a desk/work area outside the working part of the kitchen and will design something to charge everything sight unseen, like in a drawer.
We have several after-market chargers so we have them all over - the car, bedroom, kitchen and family room. It will be nice to have a central location, esp for my kids' iPads. They are not allowed to have them upstairs in their rooms at this point b/c I need to supervise them (not playing games when supposed to be working on school stuff). Don't even get me started on how annoyed I am at the school for requiring them. They are a total distraction.
We had one of those Pottery Barn gizmos (black) and I actually liked it on our kitchen desk, but agree it was large and it did become a place to put other junk. Stamps, ipod, extra keys, Wii charging stand, and other things crammed in the little drawer. That was before we had ipads and iphones. Now that we have those, we just use the regular outlets near the desk and one of the Belkin multi-plugs on occasion (with the USB ports on the top). Unless I have to charge a camera battery or something else, it is sufficient for day-to-day use. I keep a car charger in my car too. I can't bring my electronics to my desk at work so I put everything on 'airplane mode' and that saves battery life until I need it.

Won Tons- Heat oil in a wok* or a large skillet. Chop onions finely in a cuisinart. (Everything is cut in a cuisinart finely-if you don't have one, you can use a knife, and have everything cut before cooking) and add to hot oil. It should sizzle. Stir and lower heat slightly. Add minced garlic. Stir. Chop carrots and add them. Chop celery and add that to the wok. Stir. Do not let vegetable turn brown. Keep stirring. Add chopped cabbage, mushrooms and tofu. Stir. Add soy sauce. Taste. Add a bit of chili sauce if you like it spicy. Heat until the mixture has no residual moisture. Add cilantro and then place in a large bowl to cool.
Make broth- in a large saucepan heat 6-8 cups of water. Add all your vegetables and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and add a tablespoon or so of soy sauce. Let this simmer for at least 30 minutes. Strain and then return back to pan. Season with more soy sauce and salt to taste.
Wrap won tons – First put a cookie sheet covered in wax paper or foil next to you. Also put out a small bowl of water.
Put a dab of water on two touching sides of the wrapper. Place a teaspoon of filing in the middle. Press together in the shape of a triangle. Sealing the edges. Place a dab of water in the corner and bring the other corner over and press together. Place on the sheet and keep going till all are done. (Place leftovers on sheet in freezer. After 4 hours transfer to freezer container)
Bring broth to a slow boil and add won tons one by one. Make only about 12 at a time. They are done in about 3-5 minutes. Make sure there are no holes in the won tons. Place in a bowl with the broth and top with a few cilantro leaves.

"Where have immigrants to the U.S. come from? Natalia Bronshtein, a professor and consultant who runs the blog Insightful Interaction, created this fascinating visualization of the number of immigrants to the U.S. since 1829 by country of origin. The graph hints at tragic events in world history. The first influx of Irish occurred during the potato famine in 1845, while the massive influx of Russians in the first decade of the 20th Century was driven by anti-Semitic violence of the Russian pogroms (riots). Meanwhile in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, army conscription and the forced assimilation of minority groups drove people to the U.S. in the early 1900s. Since WWII, Central and South America and Asia have replaced Europe as the largest source of immigrants to the U.S. Immigration shrunk to almost nothing as restrictions tightened during WWII, and then gradually expanded to reach its largest extent ever in the first decade of the 21st Century."

As a treat for the readers of this blog here is a longer and more complete interview with Sir Ken Robinson that was recorded as part of the Learning {Re}imagined book where he discusses educational technology, creativity, assessment and the future of learning (15 minutes). There are more exclusive videos contained within the book…
I have a great admiration for the thinking of Sir Ken Robinson... He speaks so eloquently and argues for creative learning...and so much more...
A stand out quote for me from this interview;
"What tends to dull the appetite [for learning] is being force fed things that people can't see an immediately relevance in or don't have an immediate interest in it...or where they are forced to learn in situations where they are inimitable... you know, 8 hours a day, sit still, do as you're told."
Bring on different ways of engaging with people around learning so that they not only 'get it' but they really enjoy it and become life long learners.
I recommend this 15 minute video to you!

|Rescooped by Jenn Alevy from 21st Century Information Fluency
Teaching Information Fluency describes the skills and dispositions of information fluency adept searchers. Readers will receive in-depth information on what it takes to locate, evaluate, and ethically use digital information. The book realistically examines the abilities of Internet searchers today in terms of their efficiency and effectiveness in finding online information, evaluating it and using it ethically. Since the majority of people develop these skills on their own, rather than being taught, the strategies they invent may suffice for simple searches, but for more complex tasks, such as those required by academic and professional work, the average person's performance is adequate only about 50% of the time. The book is laid out in five parts: an introduction to the problem and how search engine improvements are not sufficient to be of real help, speculative searching, investigative searching, ethical use and applications of information fluency. The intent of the book is to provide readers ways to improve their performance as consumers of digital information and to help teachers devise useful ways to integrate information fluency instruction into their teaching, since deliberate instruction is needed to develop fluency. Since it is unlikely that dedicated class time will be available for such instruction, the approach taken embeds information fluency activities into classroom instruction in language arts, history and science. Numerous model lessons and resources are woven into the fabric of the text, including think-alouds, individual and group search challenges, discussions, assessments and curation, all targeted to Common Core State Standards as well as information fluency competencies.

Ten Disciplines of a Learner
We decided to continue the conversation on this topic at a faculty meeting. Several meetings later we had a new report card. We decided to give two grades and average them—one for "Learning," the other for "Mastery."
Sara might get an "F" in mastery and an "A" in learning, culminating in a "C" for the course. To be rigorous we picked ten observable behaviors and named them "Disciplines of a Learner:"
1. Asks questions
2. Builds on other people's ideas
3. Uses mistakes as learning opportunities
4. Takes criticism constructively
5. Speaks up
6. Welcomes a challenge
7. Takes risks
8. Listens with an openness to change
9. Perseveres in tasks
10. Decides when to lead and when to follow.

Love this examination of 'Disciplines of a Learner" that clearly distinguishes between master and learning. I think we should demonstrate greater value to the lifelong skill of learning .
Whether in school or the work place, we talk about measurable goals and objectives but most of us struggle to define how those goals or objectives might be measured. Now that's often because the goals and objectives aren't actually measurable, but it's mostly because we don't think through what we're actually asking students or employees to accomplish. For students, success and progress can be measured when they see "that [their] learning, not [their] intelligence" matters. For employees, success and progress can be measured in much the same way.
For years, Finland has been the by-word for a successful education system, perched at the top of international league tables for literacy and numeracy.
Pasi Silander, the city's development manager, explained: "What we need now is a different kind of education to prepare people for working life.
"Young people use quite advanced computers. In the past the banks had lots of bank clerks totting up figures but now that has totally changed.
"We therefore have to make the changes in education that are necessary for industry and modern society."
Subject-specific lessons – an hour of history in the morning, an hour of geography in the afternoon – are already being phased out for 16-year-olds in the city's upper schools. They are being replaced by what the Finns call "phenomenon" teaching – or teaching by topic. For instance, a teenager studying a vocational course might take "cafeteria services" lessons, which would include elements of maths, languages (to help serve foreign customers), writing skills and communication skills.
More academic pupils would be taught cross-subject topics such as the European Union - which would merge elements of economics, history (of the countries involved), languages and geography.
This article shares how Finland is changing how they teach children and adults. This is similar to the comments I recently shared from Stanford's president. Thoughts?
This is what school librarians have been doing forever!

When was the last time you said "I don't know" in a business or organizational context, with the idea that your honesty would actually get you somewhere?
Not knowing opens up space for exploring and questioning. It seems to fit with Dewey's theory of learning.
Memories can be considered dormant or stored expressions of energy. Thoughts can lead us in previously unimagined directions. So perhaps 'knowledge' is actually the power in not knowing, as well as realising that what we don't know matters more than what we think we know. It is the practice of constantly becoming 'knowledgeable', or, developing the ability to send and receive knowledge, rather than having to own it or store it.

Curriculum-as-lived and currere are not new ideas. They have been forming for the last 40 years plus. We did not need digital technologies to come with this idea. It should have been firmly entrenched and it is not.

Watch John Stossel
John Stossel, the newest member of the Fox family, debuts his show on Fox Business Network tonight at 8pm Eastern.
Be sure to tune in. He write at Townhall.com:
People keep forwarding me emails and blog posts saying ABC fired me. Internet forums claim I was fired because I aired a story about the downside of government-controlled health care. This is silly. It's not even logical. No one can broadcast anything on "20/20″ without ABC's approval.
The truth is that my departure from ABC was by mutual consent.
I left to go to the Fox News Channel and Fox Business Network because I want more time to report on free markets and economic liberty, the kind of reporting I do in this column. With two 24-hour news channels, Fox has more room for that.
Tomorrow, finally, my new Fox Business show begins! It will air every Thursday at 8 p.m. (and will repeat Fridays at 10 p.m. — opposite "20/20″ — heh, heh, heh).
My first show will be on the "climate crisis." Or it might be on Ayn Rand's novel "Atlas Shrugged." I've prepared both shows because I can't decide which I should do.

Op-ed: 800 years ago, Magna Carta was the start of rule by lawadmin : March 21, 2015 10:55 pm : In the News, Utah Bar President
By James D. Gilson
Eight hundred years ago on June 15, 1215, King John and a group of rebellious barons met on a grassy meadow at Runnymede, England, to forge an accord to avert civil war. Although the agreement failed to prevent conflict, clauses in the document, eventually known as Magna Carta (the Great Charter), became the first significant step in a process of guaranteeing constitutional freedoms that continues today:
39. No free man will be arrested, or imprisoned, or disseised, or outlawed, or exiled, or in any other way ruined, nor will we go against him or send against him, except by the lawful judgment of his peers or by the law of the land.

Utah high school students are selected to participate in the program based on an essay, civic involvement resume or teacher nomination letter. For students who choose to write an essay the Law Day theme is "Magna Carta: Symbol of Freedom Under Law."
