Armstrong School District plans to make good use of state rankings
Armstrong School District officials are pleased with rankings provided by the Pennsylvania School Performance Profile, and plan to use them as a tool to improve its educational programming, according to district officials.
The state released the last batch of school performance profiles last week, giving parents and students a complete look at scores from more than 620 schools after a botched rollout two months ago.
In the Armstrong School District, Shannock Valley Elementary School scored the highest, securing a rank of 81.9, while the lowest performing school, West Hills Intermediate School, earned a rank of 65.2. The scores are based on a scale of 100.
Freeport Junior High School scored a 95.5, making it the highest-ranked school in Armstrong County, while West Hills Intermediate was the lowest.
School Performance Profiles, the model approved to replace Adequate Yearly Progress goals mandated by No Child Left Behind, were delayed twice as state officials struggled to make corrections and verify basic information such as enrollment tallies and square footage in school buildings.
Scores incorporate the results of statewide assessments, student academic growth from year to year, graduation rates, attendance and performance rates, and the academic progress of historically underperforming students such as English language learners and those from low-income households.
"The Armstrong School District performance profile will serve as an analysis tool to inform goal setting, planning, and allocating resources to meet the new measures established by the state," wrote Shauna Braun-Zukowski, the district's coordinator of curriculum, instruction, assessment and accountability. in a statement.
"The district will now work with the data to plan for the future to meet new targets set by the state in relation to our baseline scores."
Acting Education Secretary Carolyn Dumaresq initially delayed the debut of the state's reporting website — paschoolperformance.org — because 20 percent of the state's 3,000 schools complained that data were incorrect or incomplete and could reflect poorly on students and the schools they attend.
School leaders, including officials at Armstrong School District, asked the department to suppress some inaccurate data in the first version of the performance profiles released in October.
Educators and state officials blamed the newly adopted Keystone Exam taken in early 2013 for the incorrect information.
Thousands of students, proctors and administrators statewide failed to check the correct box indicating whether a student took the test for course credit or to meet federal requirements. Dumaresq said at the time that the state shared the blame for those errors by failing to explain clearly how to fill out test forms.
"(The) update completes the School Performance Profile for the 2012-13 school year," Dumaresq said in a statement. "Students, parents, educators and the general public can now view academic performance of all Pennsylvania public schools as well as compare results to neighboring schools and schools across the state."
The results show 2,181, or nearly 73 percent, of public schools received a 70 or higher on a 100-point scale.
Braun-Zukowski pointed out that none of the district's schools fall into the categories of priority or focus schools, which are the lowest 5 percent and lowest 10 percent of schools, respectively, in Pennsylvania.
District administrators plan to focus on professional development for all teachers and administrators, goal setting, after-school tutoring focusing on PSSA and Keystone test remediation, curriculum mapping and focused lesson planning in an effort to improve scores, Braun-Zukowski said in the statement.
"This is the first year of the Keystone testing at the secondary level, so we will work collectively to move the district forward to a higher level," Braun-Zukowski wrote. "We are excited about the progress we are making within the district, and will structure planning toward these new measures."
Lenape Technical School received a ranking of 67.4, according to the School Performance Profile website.
The highest performing school in the state, the Downingtown STEM Academy, in the Downingtown Area School District in Chester County, scored a 101.4, while the lowest scoring school, the Philadelphia Learning Academy South, in the Philadelphia City School District, scored 11.4.

sysutils/bsdadminscripts: fix distviper Adds a -H to all uses of find(1) in distviper so symlinks are handled correctly By default find(1) will not follow symlinks given on the command-line. There are several places in distviper where find is used without allowing for this. In particular in the default mode, if PORTSDIR is a link and DISTDIR isn't, then no distinfo files are found and all the distfiles are deleted. This can be fixed by either making sure that find is given directory names that end in a "/" or with the -H option.

Allow pkg_libchk to work from non-CSH shells /bin/sh does not set OSTYPE, so this variable is inherited from the shell from which pkg_libchk is invoked. From all standard shells in the base system, only csh and tcsh do set this variable, so when pkg_libchk is invoked from sh (that is not invoked from csh-like shell), this variable will be empty. Moreover, bash sets OSTYPE to freebsdX.Y, so grepping on output of 'readelf -e' wont work either. 'uname -s' provides much more reliable way to get the name of the operating system and all *BSD ELF ABI types inside readelf correspond to the 'uname -s': {{{ case ELFOSABI_NETBSD: return "UNIX - NetBSD"; case ELFOSABI_FREEBSD: return "UNIX - FreeBSD"; case ELFOSABI_OPENBSD: return "UNIX - OpenBSD"; }}} PR: ports/158967 Approved-by: Dominic Fandrey <email@example.com> (maintainer), erwin (mentor) Feature-safe: yes

I Dreamed Of An Old Love Affair Lyrics
Artist: Ernest Tubb
Album: The Daddy Of 'Em All
Just like old time you were here last night and gone was my worry and care
When I awoke I knew then that I had dreamed of an old love affair
I was alone in the darkness my dear many dreams ago you left me there
Sunlight told me you were gone and I had dreamed of an old love affair
[ guitar ]
I've been so lonely since you have gone I loved you with all of my heart
Heaven was mine when you smiled last night and said that we'd take a new start
Life seems so useless and empty today if it's sun or rain I just don't care
Sunlight told me you were gone and I had dreamed of an old love affair

We had a reservation but after getting in the hotel and looking around I asked to see the room first before checking in. We had reserved a accessible room with a roll-in shower. This bathroom room did not meet ADA requirements by ant means and there was no way I could have successfully stayed there. Things have changed with Microtel, when they first opened it was all about meeting the handicap community's needs and going way above and beyond what was expected. They have since been bought out and seem to be putting the Microtel name on any old property. So be advised it isn't the good old Microtel of the past.

jasonhawaiiusa Rating:5.0I was looking for an affordable robe for my wife and everywhere I looked the price was, on average, around $50. I meant I didn't want to spend a $50 on a robe so I gave this one a shot and she loved it. Its very soft and light. She's happy and I m happy. Great value for the money. I don't think you can find a better robe at such a low price.

buycoffee Rating:5.0Some robes are so thick that they are heavy on your shoulders .... these soft cuddly lightweight beauties are comfy ... great to put on as you step out of the shower ... or when you give yourself a personal gift ... a day of reading and drinking hot chocolate when it is snowing ...you cannot even imagine how you will want to stay cuddled up all day ... they are difficult to get out of ..easy to put on ... enjoy !!! I bought one for my sister ... one for a friend ... and of course ... one for me ... and Christmas is coming ... if you are shipping these ... you will love that they don't weigh much ... so great for sending Santa to loved ones you won't see for the holidays ... I wash only on gentle cycle ... dry with a dryer sheet to make it softer, fluffier, and to smell wonderful ... on gentle heat .. for a short time ... take out of dryer and then hang it up quickly so it is like brand new ... and ready for giving more hugs !!

josephw297 Rating:5.0I was looking for a last minute item for my wife who was going to be in the hospital for a time. Well, I looked around the house for some ideas. I couldn,t find anything. Then one morning, she came into my office in this ratty old robe that I believe she had when we got married....fifty years ago!! I knew what that gift would be. Well, when the package from you arrived, I thouroughly surprised at the quality of the robe as well as the appearance. When I gave to her on Christmas Day, she was totally delighted. I couldn't get her out of it all day.Thank you for making this Christmas one of the best!!

Investigate whether higher levels of urate, an antioxidant linked to a lower likelihood of developing Parkinson disease (PD), is also a predictor of having a dopamine transporter brain scan without evidence of dopaminergic deficit (SWEDD).
In a cross-sectional study of 797 mildly affected, untreated parkinsonian subjects diagnosed with early PD in the Parkinson Research Examination of CEP-1347 Trial (PRECEPT), we investigated the relationship at baseline between serum urate and striatal dopamine transporter density, determined by single-photon emission computed-tomography of iodine-123-labeled 2-β-carboxymethoxy-3-β-(4-iodophenyl)tropane ([123I]β-CIT) uptake. A SWEDD was defined as lowest putamen [123I]β-CIT > 80% age-expected putamen DAT density.
Odds of having a SWEDD rose across increasing quintiles of urate level, with an age- and gender-adjusted odds ratio of 3.2 comparing the highest to the lowest urate quintile; 95% CI: 1.5 to 7.2; p for trend = 0.0003) and remained significant after adjusting for potential confounding factors. The association was significant in men but not women, regardless of whether common or sex-specific quintiles of urate were used.
Higher levels of urate were associated with a greater likelihood of a SWEDD amongst subjects with early untreated parkinsonism in the PRECEPT study. The findings support the diagnostic utility of urate in combination with other determinants.
Urate is a potent antioxidant1 and may reduce the oxidative damage suspected to contribute to the neurodegenerative process in Parkinson disease (PD).2, 3 Consistent with this hypothetical benefit, individuals with higher levels of serum urate have been consistently found to have a decreased risk of PD in several longitudinal studies.4–7 Similarly, dietary8 and genetic9 determinants of higher serum urate recently have been linked to a reduced risk of PD or a later age at onset. These studies, however, relied on clinical diagnoses of PD, and some level of diagnostic misclassification is likely. Randomized clinical trials targeting early PD and conducting dopaminergic imaging may provide an attractive complementary opportunity to investigate potential effects of serum urate on PD risk. Approximately 10% of the participants in these trials have a scan without evidence of dopaminergic deficit (SWEDD),10–13 and may not have PD, as suggested by the lack of disease progression and often by a revision of the clinical diagnosis at the end of the trial.10, 14 These subjects therefore constitute a useful control group for case-control studies of risk factors for PD in which the cases are those subjects with evidence of dopaminergic deficit recruited in the same trial -- if individuals with higher urate levels have a decreased risk of PD, the probability of a SWEDD would be expected to be higher in patients with higher urate.
We therefore examined cross-sectionally the relation between baseline serum urate concentrations and baseline imaging results among participants enrolled in the Parkinson Research Examination of CEP-1347 Trial (PRECEPT), a large randomized clinical trial that was originally designed to investigate a candidate neuroprotectant in PD using clinical and imaging assessments of disease progression due to continued neurodegeneration.13
The PRECEPT study was carried out by the Parkinson Study Group, and sponsored by Cephalon, Inc. and H. Lundbeck A/S. The participants (n=806) were enrolled between April 2002 and April 2004 at 65 sites across the United States and Canada. All participating sites obtained approval of the protocol by their institutional review boards, and all subjects gave written consent for study participation. The present study was conducted on the data for all PRECEPT subjects with serum urate values and functional neuroimaging results at baseline. As previously described, subjects to be enrolled in the study had to have a diagnosis of early PD (modified Hoehn and Yahr stage of ≤2.5 with two of the cardinal signs: resting tremor, bradykinesia or rigidity) and no current or imminent (in the next 3 months) disability requiring dopaminergic therapy.13 Exclusion criteria included atypical parkinsonism, a diagnosis of PD ≥ 5 years duration, a tremor score ≥3, a Mini-Mental Status Exam score ≤ 26, a Beck Depression Inventory score ≥15 or the use of symptomatic therapy within six months prior to randomization. Subjects were randomly assigned to receive placebo or CEP-1347 10 mg, 25 mg, or 50 mg twice daily.
Serum urate was measured at screening as well as the subsequent baseline visit (on average 4 weeks apart) as one component of the routine safety monitoring performed. The correlation between the screening and baseline serum urate was high (r=0.88; p<0.0001), and only baseline values, which were available for 99.8% of patients enrolled in the trial, have been used in the present analyses. Serum urate levels in blood samples drawn under non-fasting conditions were determined using an enzymatic assay performed at a central commercial clinical laboratory (Covance, Indianapolis, IN). Information on past medical history and regular use of medications was collected at the screening visit.
Single-photon emission computed-tomography (SPECT) of iodine-123-labeled 2-β-carboxymethoxy-3-β-(4-iodophenyl)tropane ([123I]β-CIT) uptake was used at baseline to measure striatal dopamine transporter density among all subjects in the trial; imaging was carried out at the Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders in New Haven, Connecticut with methods as described previously.15 Based on a previously acquired database of 100 healthy subjects, baseline scans were categorized as DAT deficient (≤ 80% age-expected lowest putamen [123I]β-CIT), or not DAT deficient (> 80% age-expected lowest putamen [123I]β-CIT).16
The relation between serum urate at baseline and SWEDDs was assessed by logistic regression, adjusting for age and gender. Initial analyses were conducted using quintiles based on the combined urate distribution in men and women ("common quintiles"). An important advantage of using common quintiles is that the odds ratios in men and women estimate the effects of similar levels of serum urate. However, because of the expected higher level of urate in men, this categorization resulted in a markedly skewed distribution within gender, with mostly men in the top quintiles and mostly women in the bottom quintiles of serum urate, and thus in a loss of power of analyses within gender. These analyses were therefore complemented by estimating odds ratios for gender-specific quintiles. Tests for trend were conducted by including serum urate as a continuous variable in the logistic regression models (Wald test). Potential confounding was assessed by adjusting the regression analyses for body mass index (continuous), smoking (current smoking vs past or never), history of hypertension, history of high cholesterol, use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and use of thiazides. Possible interaction between serum urate and gender was explored by including in the logistic regression model the cross-product of serum urate as a continuous variable with gender.
All the p values presented are for 2-tailed tests with levels < 0.05 defined as significant.
Serum urate values and SPECT β-CIT imaging at baseline were available for 797 patients, including 90 classified as having SWEDDs (Table 1). Selected characteristics of these subjects according to imaging results are shown in Table 1.
In analyses using quintiles of serum urate in men and women combined, the odds of a patient having a SWEDD increased with increasing urate levels (age- and gender-adjusted OR comparing the highest to the lowest urate quintile = 3.2; 95% CI: 1.5 to 7.2; p for trend = 0.0003) (Table 2). The trend of increasing odds of a SWEDD with increasing urate remained strong and significant after simultaneous adjustment for body mass index, smoking, history of hypertension, history of high cholesterol, use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and use of thiazides (p for trend = 0.01). The association was stronger in men than in women, although a test of interaction between serum urate (as a continuous variable) and gender was not significant (p=0.3). Because of the marked difference in serum urate levels between men and women, we also conducted analyses based on gender-specific quintiles of serum urate. Results were similar to those using common quintiles – among men, high serum urate was strongly associated with the odds of being a SWEDD, whereas a weaker and non-significant association was found in women (Table 3).
Urate, a major antioxidant as well as the end product of purine metabolism in humans, has emerged as a biomarker of PD at multiple stages of the disease process.17 Specifically, prior to diagnosis lower serum urate indicates an increased risk of the disease becoming clinically manifest years later.4–7 Shortly after symptoms have developed, urate can serve as a prognostic biomarker with lower serum or CSF levels foretelling a greater likelihood of faster disability progression,18, 19 or of faster loss of dopamine transporter binding sites in striatum15. The current findings demonstrate the potential diagnostic relevance of serum urate early in clinically manifest disease. They do so by identifying amongst those with mild parkinsonism a significant correlation between lower serum urate and reduced striatal uptake of a dopamine transporter ligand in a pattern indicative of idiopathic PD because of its characteristic deficit of nigrostriatal dopaminergic innervation. Conversely, higher -- but still normal – levels of urate were linked to SWEDDs and thus to a lesser likelihood of having true PD.
The correlation between urate and SWEDD status was robust in men but unclear in women. This apparent gender difference parallels similarly strong links between urate and PD risk or its progression18, 19 in men more than women. The gender difference in urate correlations may represent a true biological difference between men and women. Alternatively, the lack of significance for women might simply reflect the much smaller (here 6-fold compared to men) contribution of women to the highest two urate quintiles because of naturally lower levels of urate in women as well as the smaller number of women enrolling in PRECEPT.
Although higher serum urate amongst subjects recently diagnosed with 'PD' may be indicative of an alternative diagnosis, urate as biomarker of PD is not sufficiently specific on its own to distinguish PD and non-PD diagnoses. Nevertheless it may be combined with other diagnostic biomarkers to form a more useful composite indicator of non-PD diagnoses in early parkinsonism. In addition to SWEDD status, preserved olfaction has recently been substantiated as a potentially practical indicator of a non-PD diagnosis amongst newly diagnosed parkinsonian patients. It has been proposed that olfactory test performance, which has also been associated with SWEDDs in early parkinsonisim,20 in combination with distinctive PD motor features (e.g., asymmetric rest tremor21) may serve as a more accessible and less expensive diagnostic biomarker compared to this functional neuroimaging technique. Thus it will be conceptually informative and possibly clinically useful to combine multiple readily available, simple tests – e.g., of serum urate and olfactory function – to determine how the diagnostic value (i.e., of higher urate and preserved olfaction) compares to that with either test result alone. Similarly, a crude composite index of suspicion for a non-PD diagnosis may aid in triaging subjects for more incisive diagnostic assessment with DAT neuroimaging.22
Amongst subjects diagnosed with early PD in the PRECEPT18 and DATATOP19 trials, those with higher levels of serum urate were found to decline clinically and radiographically at a slower rate than those with lower urate levels. The current findings suggest that at least some of urate's capacity as a prognostic biomarker amongst those newly diagnosed with PD can be explained by the higher proportion of SWEDDs amongst 'early PD' subjects with higher urate levels. Because SWEDD subjects show little evidence of clinical and radiographic progression for at least 2–4 years from baseline,10, 11, 20, 23, 24 their greater representation amongst those with higher urate likely contributed to the relatively favorable prognosis observed amongst those with a PD diagnosis and higher urate levels.18, 19 However, the urate-SWEDD link could only partially account for the predictive association between higher urate at baseline and slower clinical progression because the association remains strong even after excluding all 90 subjects with a baseline SWEDD from a secondary analysis of the PRECEPT cohort18 (unpublished observations, AA, KM, A. Watts, SE, IS, MAS). Specifically, the HR for reaching the endpoint still declined with increasing serum urate in analyses including men and women combined (p= 0.002 for trend) with the an HR of 0.61 for those in the highest versus the lowest serum urate quintile (95% CI: 0.43 to 0.86; p=0.005). As before,18 the HR reduction was even greater and more significant in men and was absent in women. Similarly, the reported18 predictive association between higher baseline urate and slower decline in striatal β -CIT uptake persisted after excluding those with a baseline SWEDD from analysis, and though diminished it remained statistically significant amongst men.
Accuracy in the diagnosis of PD early in the course of parkinsonian conditions is of considerable importance for clinical research as well as for prognostic counseling.25 Although experience and specialization in movement disorders neurology appears to improve the positive predictive value of an idiopathic PD diagnosis to nearly 99% based on definitive pathological assessment,26 this high level of probability was achieved only after following patients who presented with parkinsonism for five years on average before diagnostic revision. Diagnostic accuracy is naturally lower early in the course of parkinsonian conditions when symptoms are fewer and subtler and when responsiveness to dopaminergic drug therapy – an important diagnostic indicator in PD – has not yet been assessed. However, this early so-called de novo clinical phase of the disease has traditionally been the focus of therapeutic trials investigating potentially neuroprotective agents. Thus, it is not surprising that such clinical trials enroll a significant percentage of parkinsonian subjects who ultimately receive a diagnosis other than PD, for example, with 7% of the 800 subjects in the DATATOP trial who were initially thought to have PD upon enrollment being later deemed no longer likely to have the disease.14 In several more recent trials also investigating potentially disease-modifying agents in de novo PD a similar proportion (~10%) of subjects have been identified as possibly not having PD, though in these studies the evidence was available at baseline when functional brain scans unexpectedly showed normal labeling of dopaminergic innervation in the striatum, i.e., SWEDDs. The demonstration that higher urate is a predictor of SWEDD status suggests that urate may be useful as a component of a composite diagnostic indicator early in the course of parkinsonian conditions. The findings broaden the diagnostic biomarker potential of urate in PD, and lend further support to the possibility of a role for urate in the pathophysiology of the disease and its future treatment.

To constantly grow and serve and change, Sharon Salzberg says, we must be resilient with ourselves and the effort that it takes to care for oneself and the others in our lives.
Who you're going to be and what you're going to become takes time. But, nowadays, getting educated has an extraordinary set of expectations for students. Omid Safi reminds us that students need to be gentle with themselves as they discover what it means to be a human being and not just a human doing.
Regret and humility are two ways we relate to the past, but they can spawn very different approaches to life. Embracing adversity can open up hope for the future depending on how we embrace it.
Sometimes it takes a fire hydrant turning into a geyser to remind us that there is somebody there to fix it. In seeing all of the people around us who make systems and services work, we begin to understand what it takes to make a community thrive.
When yes is overused it takes what should be a whole-hearted gift and turns it into an anxiety-producing check box. Courtney Martin's argument for saying "no" gracefully and learning to measure life in acts of unhurried love.
Researchers are showing that doing it all at the same time is a "diabolical illusion." If we know this, why does it continue to be so seductive, so alluring? In this technological, overambitious age, a commentary on striving to be focused and whole again.
No matter what decade of your life you're in, your journey to find a fulfilling work life is one often clouded with worry and self-doubt. Parker Palmer writes this helpful story about finding the way — not by what opens in front of you but by what closes behind you.
Making connections can be "life-giving" but they can also reinforce "damaging divides." Courtney Martin is reminded of the vitality of human bonds — and the chasms that remain in this hypernetworked world.
For Thanksgiving, Parker Palmer asks us to find new ways to be filled with gratitude and praise. It's in the gratitude for the ground we stand on, the blessing of togetherness, and the kindness of strangers, that we remember our work is loving the world.
We often desire a sense of adventure and travel. But when a "life of wandering" overtakes a "life of rootedness," we take time away from home and community — and "the ground at our own feet."
In the face of so much pain and suffering, some words of advice on how to persevere and the importance of being faithful to your gifts.
More than 50 years ago, Thomas Merton warned that the pressure of modern life might distract us from the wisdom that makes work fruitful.
Highlights of some of the most heartening work our executive editor has read this past week, including Tara Mohr's advice to women on taking in criticism, seeing the sacred in the mundane, engaging our prophets, and a behind-the-scenes glimpse into photos we chose.
Our executive editor's weekly missive, including a smart testimony on the value of work, a Mary Oliver poem on suffering and joy, a call for headlines that reflect the fullness of the world, and a stunning body of paintings from Rabindranath Tagore.
Our weekly columnist sends up a white flag to the insurance company, but in the end draws something more precious than money: her time and attention.
A letter from beloved children's author on living out your joy, in whatever form it takes.
This week inspired a lesson from Ralph Waldo Emerson, a poetic reflection on being more than doing from Parker Palmer, a precious moment that will make you smile, and a peculiar story about a lockpicker that will make you think.
In our busy lives, a reminder from Parker Palmer that what matters most is not our ability to produce but our ability to love, and to just be. With a poem by Lynn Ungar.
Neil Gaiman's commencement speech is exactly what you need. Make mistakes, enjoy the journey, break the rules, make good art.
A bartender who was born and raised in Jamaica sent us this lovely essay in response to our latest show. A testament to the power of poetry and pursuit.
As we rush forward into the work week, a poem to slow us down, turn us about, and maybe just maybe, laugh at ourselves. Marie Howe reads her poem "Hurry."
Feelings of guilt, normally shunned or discouraged, can actually signal a capacity for leadership. What does this say about people who never feel guilt?
For the marketer, the freelancer and the entrepreneur, the challenge is to level set, to be comfortable with the undone, with the cycle of never-ending. We were trained to finish our homework, our peas and our chores. Today, we're never finished, and that's okay.
It's a dance, not an endless grind.
—Seth Godin, from his blog entry "Dancing on the edge of finished"

DIY Chandelier
By: Not Just a Housewife
Make your own chandelier or pendant lights with this DIY chandelier project! It's easy and thrifty to upcycle an old chandelier into a beautiful new light fixture.
- Old chandelier
- Krylon Spray Paint
- Assorted beads, pearls, and crystals
- Wire
- In the classifieds online I found an old brass light fixture. I was not in love with the brass but the shape was perfect!
- I took it outside and hung it from a tree so I could paint it. I sprayed several thin coats. If you try to do thick coats of paint it will run and you will have drips everywhere.
- Since it was pretty cold I brought it in and hung it inside to dry. I then started on the beads/jewels. I bought a ton of options knowing I probably wouldn't use them all. But since I didn't have a certain design in mind I wanted to make sure I had plenty to choose from. I ended up only using the mardi gras necklaces and one pack of the tear drop shaped beads.
- Here is how I wired the beads that hang from the center of the chandelier.
- I made a round part for the last pearl on the string to fit through. Then the twisted part got wrapped around the string just above the last pearl. I cut off any extra wire.
- Then I cut a wire that was long enough to go around the center of light. I attached these jewels to that wire and wrapped it around the center of the light.
- Some of the necklaces were cut into 6 equal strips. I used wire the attach the first pearl to the bottom of the "arm" and then I wired the last pearl to the top of the "arm".
- I wired 2 necklaces together so it would be long enough to drape . They got draped across the skinny part of the arms. Each time the arm and the necklace touched I used wire to hold it in place.
- Once everything was wired into place I took it outside again to spray paint. I wanted it to be all white. I forgot to take a picture of it before I painted the jewels. It looked alright except you could see the wire. Now it blends right in!

I love this idea! And I have an old chandelier hanging above my dining room table that would work perfect! I've been embarrassed by it for years, and now's my chance to actually be stylish! lol If I knew how to unhook the wiring, I'd do it right now! But I'll have to get my husband to do that this weekend. Thanks so much for the tutorial!

Mostly what we will be talking about is the report from the Supreme Court about Ferguson's police tactics, Starbucks' "race together" pseudo-marketing campaign, as well as some crazy shiz from Raven Simone, Eva Mendes, and our good friend, Shia the Beef.

Patti LaBelle
For famed singer Patti LaBelle, diabetes hit close to home before her own diagnosis. Her mother had her leg amputated and her uncle went blind because of the disease. So when LaBelle found out that she had diabetes in 1994 after passing out while performing, she instantly incorporated a healthier lifestyle. Over the years she has published three cookbooks for diabetics. (Photo: Ilya Savenok/BET/Getty Images for BET)
