This compass is great for backcountry routefinding. Doesn't have the bulk and weight of one with a sighting mirror, while still having the elements needed for technical navigation. Easy to adjust for declination as well. Great compass.

Comments about Suunto M-3G Global Compass:
I always used the basic Silva compasses in Boy Scouts, however the M-3 global is clearly easier to use. It is easier to figure out and correct for your declination than other models on the market. It has a glow in the dark feature, map scale/mileage converter and lanyard included...Priceless.

Thomas Adès
Opera in three acts
Libretto by Meredith Oakes after the play of the same name, The Tempest (1610/1611) by William Shakespeare
World premiere February 10th 2004 Royal Opera House Covent Garden, London
Sung in english with german surtitles
Duration: c. 2 1/2 hours incl. one interval after c. 75 minutes
About the Piece
The work begins in a storm. English composer Thomas Adès' music is stormy too, appropriating ideas from all of England's greats. Meredith Oakes deals with Shakespeare's play in a similarly fresh and fearless way: »the skeleton remains, the skin is regenerated and something completely original is born.« (Keith Warner) This »skeleton« is the story of the sorcerer Prospero: he and his daughter Miranda have been living stranded on an island since his brother Antonio's betrayal almost cost them their lives. His magic has enabled him to gain power over Ariel, a spirit of the air, and Caliban, the wild son of a witch. Against her will, but loyal to her master, Ariel ensures that Antonio, the King of Naples and his son Ferdinand are ship-wrecked on the island. Prospero's magic powers were intended to bring about repentence but he had not reckoned with the love between the Prince and Miranda, which destroys his magic and brings about peace between the enemies. Caliban, the barbarian, regains control over his kingdom and, in this version of the Elizabethan play, has the last word.
Prospero and his daughter Miranda have been living on an island since his brother Antonio stole his title, the Duke of Milan. The other inhabitants are Caliban, son of the witch Sycorax, and Ariel, a spirit of the air. Prospero summons a storm to sink a passing ship. Ariel is ordered to ensure that the survivors, Antonio, the King of Naples and his son Ferdinand among them, reach the shore. The King fears that his son is lost but they set out to look for him. Meanwhile, Prospero had ordered Ariel to lure Ferdinand to him, but he had not reckoned with his daughter falling in love with him. King Alonso and the others are so tired they can hardly walk. They believe Ferdinand must have perished and that they will soon meet the same fate. King Alonso names Gonzalo as his heir, thereby disinheriting his brother Sebastian. Ariel's music makes everyone fall asleep except Antonio and Sebastian, who decide to murder the King and Gonzalo and crown Sebastian king. Ariel conjures up a banquet: Gonzalo takes this as a sign of goodwill from heaven. The feast vanishes. Ariel appears as a harpy, accusing them of their crimes. Filled with fear, they await a terrible death. Prospero realises that he has brought hell to the island. Miranda and Ferdinand tell him of their love. He calls for Ariel to bless them. He has had his revenge. Caliban appears, demanding Miranda and the island. Miranda tells him how hateful he is to her. Ariel's emotional description of King Alonso and Antonio's fear moves Prospero so much that he decides to release them all, Ariel included. Prospero reveals his identity. The King asks for forgiveness and offers Prospero his dukedom back. Ferdinand and Miranda announce that they are a couple, to the astonishment of the King and courtiers. Prospero renounces his powers and asks the spirit to stay with him. But Ariel chooses freedom. She and Caliban are left alone on the island.

Students complete career readiness program
MONTPELIER — At just 15, Shaylee Martin knows she wants to become a preschool teacher. Taylor Beaudet, 16, is interested in graphic design. And Dylan Martin, 17, a senior, plans to be a truck driver after high school.
They are among 11 Williamstown High School students who have completed a 15-week pilot program run by their school and the Community College of Vermont to get them ready for work or college after high school. The school was among six in Vermont that were awarded grants in the fall of 2011 to engage in innovative learning.
During the fall and winter, the Williamstown students learned how to put together resumes and an online portfolio of themselves and worked on computer, speaking and collaboration skills. They took tests to assess their achievements in reading and math. And they did some of that outside of school, at Community College on Vermont.
"We weren't just stuck in the classroom five days a week," Martin said. "We actually got to go to CCV and try different things."
On Thursday, Gov. Peter Shumlin presented them with the Governor's Career Ready Certificates at the Statehouse. Later they met with legislators to talk about what they've learned.
Beadet said she and some other students impressed perspective employers at a technology job fair in Winooski when they handed out their resumes for possible summer internships.
"They were impressed with the resumes because they hadn't seen many kids actually had resumes with them," she said. She doesn't have job experience to list but can tell potential employers what she's interested in and good at.
The program is part of a move to find different ways to engage kids in their learning, said Williamstown High School Principal Scott Lang.
"We're a rural, pretty poor community with not a lot of families who are educated. So for many of our kids it's a first experience," he said.
The Legislature is considering a bill that would combine and expand secondary school programs including dual enrollment and early college to increase the number of students completing school and help prepare them for life after high school.
"It offers a lot of different choices for kids. It keeps them engaged," said Johannah Donovan, chairwoman of the House Education Committee. "Oftentimes it gets these kids working toward a future and they actually have concrete plans."MORE IN This Just InWAITSFIELD An armed robber held up the Northfield Savings Bank on Tuesday afternoon, the second...

In dioceses of the fourth century and later, the archpriest was the head of a college of presbyters as special representative of the bishop. In larger rural localities or in extensive dioceses in the West, the term also refers to the head of the central mother-church or a diocesan subdivision or deanery. Union of several of either constituted an archidiaconate whose individual deans or archpriests were subject to the archdeacon. Over time this office has undergone a number of local changes and variations. Since the Council of Trent the duties of archpriest have been largely assumed by deans.

Concannon State Fishing Lake
Garden City, KS 67846
Phone: 620-276-8886
Concannon consists of 800 acres, which were purchased by the state in 1989.
Concannon State Fishing Lake and Wildlife Area is located on the north side of Highway 156, approximately 17 miles northeast of Garden City Kansas. Approximately 410 acres of grassland, 300 acres of cropland, a 50 acre lake, and a 40 acre marsh make up the property. The area offers a large variety of recreational opportunities to the visitors. Primitive camping is allowed in an area that has ADA restrooms, an ADA courtesy dock, and a boat ramp. The proximity of Concannon to Garden City lends the area well to day use activities such as bird watching, photography, hiking, fishing, hunting and picnicking.
Recently (in 2013) 2 water holes and a small food plot were constructed in the west half of the property. This will provide an added resource for wildlife when weather is exceptionally dry and should be excellent for migratory birds.
The murky water conditions and extreme water-level fluctuations restrict the fishery of the lake to the stocking of channel catfish. Management plans include the revitalization of the fishery as water levels and other conditions permit. It is possible that the lake fishery will eventually include channel catfish, sunfish, and black bass.
The area offers a wide variety of opportunities to enjoy wildlife. Hunting, bird watching, and outdoor photography are just a few of the permitted activities. The large marshy area, in conjunction with the lake, provides a wonderful place to observe ducks, geese, herons and shore-birds. Other species include ring-necked pheasant, bobwhite quail, white-tailed deer, numerous species of waterfowl, furbearers, and non-game animals.
- All regulations pertaining to state fishing lakes are in effect.
- Vehicles are restricted to maintained roads only.
- A No Trash policy is in effect. Please take home the trash you create.

After 30 years of trying I finally have my electric tone dialed in. I'm playing through my Deville 4x10, turned up to about 8 with a power soak in the effects loop. For effects I'm using nothin' but a Fulltone Plimsoul (Best distortion pedal ever, IMO). I have another gain booster and some effects downstream that are turned off 90% of the time (you know how that goes).
My main guitar uses Lace Sensors, so I just crank the plimsoul and roll off volume for my clean sounds. It works really well and sounds pretty darned good.
However lately I've been experiencing a weird artifact that sounds and feels a lot like a wolf tone, which is weird for an electric instrument. Playing in low (or open) position I get a ton of sympathetic ringing and resonance around open Gb (I tune down 1/2 step). It's been really bugging me. I thought re-tubing would help so I did that. No help. New batteries in all my pedals? No help. When it rings it rings LOUD and it distracts the hell out of me.
Weirdest of all, I'm listening to a rehearsal from last night and I can't find the sound ANYWHERE.
1. Am I crazy?
2. Has this happened to you?
3. If "no" to 1 and "yes" to two, is the problem that I drank too much or did not drink enough before rehearsal?
Thanks all.
1. Yes.
If it is genuine sympathetic ringing, then the only two places it could be coming from are the guitar or the amp, as those are the only two parts of your signal chain generating waveforms in the air. Do you get the ringing if you relocate the guitar relative to the amp?
I haven't but I have tried muting my g string and that does not seem to help. which means #1 is probably accurate.
Yeah, then that's just weird. Try getting your vote in for drunk, and see if that helps.
Found it in the recording! It sounds like an artifact of my reverb coil.....?
Is it a spring reverb? I can see that having it's own sympathetic harmonics, too.
I'd still test drunk, just to be sure.
thanks for joining us xvircanes, welcome to chordie.
what a shame you only joined to put spam on later. that's why you've been banned...bang, the spamhammer falls
Whole discussion about Weird Sonic Stuff is good to know about opinions of other observers.
I'm learning both guitars bar chords are much easer on the electric and then I try them on my acoustic I like both guitars

Pauline's Key Lime Pie – Pre-op Pastry with my first Guest Star Chef
I've gotten many emails about how to make a nice pie or tart crust and I've always answered them with "sorry, that not really my thing." Well, you are all in luck. My Mother, and Aunt Angela, are known around these parts for their great pies, and make an incredibly flaky, and easy, pie dough. Many Chefs will tell you to let the dough rest in the fridge so that the flour can hydrate, and the crust will be even flakier. When I asked my mother if she was going to let hers rest, she said "No, I learned this dough recipe a long time ago and I'm not going to change it." So that was that.
If you don't want to add food coloring to give yours that lovely lime color, then don't. But, these days food colorings are made from vegetable dyes and are completely harmless. You decide, but I don't want a yellow Key Lime Pie. And while we're faking things, regular limes are fine if you can't get Key limes. Enjoy!
Crust: (enough for 2 pies, or one with bottom and top crust)
1 tsp salt
2 cups flour
3/4 cup shortening
5-6 tbl ice water
3 large eggs
3 large juicy limes (1/2 cup of juice)
1 can (14oz) Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 drop green food coloring
lime zest for garnish
whipped cream to top

It reminds me of the baking I use to do when I was a kid. Thanks for bringing back memories! - July 17, 2007 at 8:18 PM
- Jairus said...
That was awesome!! thank you chef mom!!
- July 17, 2007 at 8:46 PM
Wonderful recipe. Key limes are readily available here in TX, so I think I'll try the recipe w/those. Pie crust making is the bane of my existence - I can never do it right. So I'll probably buy one...lol Thanks for posting, and I hope everything turns out well for your Mom!
- July 17, 2007 at 9:43 PM
I think you mean docking? I have a question before this post why where you reposting? Awww...how nice you let your mom in your videos. :)When are you going to back in California? Hope you have the garbage plate soon ,I am soo excited to find out what it tastes like. XD
- July 17, 2007 at 10:01 PM
The pie looks really nice - would love to enjoy some together. Great job on the video and the nails look great, too! (What, no age spots?) Best of luck with your surgery, Pauline. We'll be waiting to learn that "all went well!"

WOW, My dad LOVES key lime pie! I really want to make this for him for his birthday. By the way, I think when you prick the pastry, it's called docking ... not really sure.
- July 18, 2007 at 12:13 AM
Looks like I finally have to figure out where to get such alumninium pie tins here in Germany. I can not remember having seen such here yet...
But it looks really delicious. - July 18, 2007 at 4:59 AM
now, THAT is a key lime pie...
for some reason most of the people do like a 20% lime mixture and a 80% baked whipped cream on top...
that is more 50% 50%....
and the velvety looking, cream thing *haven't seen the video just yet... looks like yogurt*
is a diferrent twist to the baked one whipped cream which I just hate because they over do it...
props pauline :D - July 18, 2007 at 8:52 AM

looks wonderful!
many thanks, and best wishes of a speedy recovery - July 18, 2007 at 1:54 PM
- Leona said...
I just know that pastry flour is the true secret to the best crust, but I can't find it. Can you give me an idea of where to look?
Leona - July 18, 2007 at 7:04 PM
- Chef John said...
well, its in the regular grocery stores in SF, but I would try the higher end stores like whole foods. Or call a local bakery and ask them where they get theirs!
- July 18, 2007 at 9:06 PM
- Johnny Chef said...
That looks absolutely delicious.
The only thing I would do differently is skip out on the green food coloring. Whenever my mother used to make key lime pie she wouldnt use any, so I'm accustomed to that pale color. However, if I was serving the pie to guests, I might consider using food coloring as that would make it more 'limey'. Not a word? Well I'm pretty sure you know all about making up words, don't you Chef John?
Great video and site, also, thanks for the comment on my blog.
In my eyes you are the George Clooneyer version of Alton Brown.
(Which is a compliment) - July 18, 2007 at 9:29 PM
- Connie said...
I call it poking the pie dough.
Looks good. I am going to look for Key limes, I saw them in the grocery store, but they are very small. Probably take 20 of them. - July 18, 2007 at 11:59 PM
- Galib said...
So what happened to the other half of the dough?
- July 19, 2007 at 4:17 PM
- Chef John said...
great question...stay tuned!
- July 19, 2007 at 5:01 PM
I've made this twice now and it's been a big hit. I used normal limes as I got a deal on them in Boston, 10 for $1, yoo hoo. One change I made was to finely grate the lime zest and add it into the egg mix, you get a very mild green color that way with tiny specks of lime, looks nice!!
- July 24, 2007 at 1:11 PM
- Chef John said...
shhhhhh...don't tell my mom, but that's what I do too.
- July 24, 2007 at 1:36 PM
- dandelion said...
I made your Mom's pie today. Yummmm! Thank her for doing it for us. My crust was great. Although I probably should wait until a less humid day to make it. It's very tender. I did find the pastry flour at Whole foods. It was whole wheat. It looked like your Mom's was white, this one was tan. Delicious though. :)

- The Paul Family said...
Can you also use ghee instead of shortening? Would you use the same quantity? Looks delish! I'm going to try this with gluten free flour, which won't quite have the same consistency but happy to experiment - I want to eat that pie!
- November 13, 2007 at 6:40 AM
- Chef John said...
not sure about the ghee, i dont know if it would have the same texture. If your going to use a butter product, use solid cold butter, that will work.
- November 13, 2007 at 10:56 AM
Can we use all purpose flour/plain flour instead? Awesome video! Yr mom has beautiful fingers!
- November 14, 2007 at 10:12 AM
- Chef John said...
yes you can. Thanks.
- November 14, 2007 at 10:44 AM
Ummm can u use lime juice in a bottle?????? i really want to try the recipe ive never made pie before......... i dont have any limes but this bottle of lime juice... will it work??????? P.S Could i skip out on the lime zest or use lemon? ill justr have to call it lemon lime pie but its alrite with me. THNKS SO MUCH FOR THE RECIPE I DONT LIKE SWEET PIE AT ALL!
- July 23, 2008 at 5:32 PM
Oh and by the way can i use a normal baking dish? should i cover it in aluminum foil first???? thnks!
- July 23, 2008 at 5:42 PM
- Chef John said...
yes you can use lime juice
- July 23, 2008 at 7:07 PM
- Chef John said...
depends on the size and shape, but i would highly recommend a foil pie tin
- July 23, 2008 at 7:09 PM
the size is 9 by 9 square glass baking dish.
- July 24, 2008 at 2:56 PM
- Chef John said...
try it and let me know!
- July 24, 2008 at 4:02 PM
any subsitutes for sweetened condensed milk??
- July 26, 2008 at 2:59 PM
- Chef John said...
- July 26, 2008 at 10:49 PM
- iPivo said...
I just had a piece of the key lime pie, I used butter rather than shortening and it tasted amazing.
I could not make it as beautiful as Pauline's pie but it is not about being beautiful, it's about eating pie.
Thanks chef John! - August 20, 2009 at 12:05 AM
Am tempted to try this for a craft show in Florida. Mom could be a hand model!
- November 4, 2010 at 12:42 PM
- Joanna said...
It looks so super delicious! Of course I've tried to make one, but it was a kitchen nightmare. I think it's because I'm living in Norway and the ingredients just don't match! sweetened condensed milk which here is called VIKING MELK was probably not sweet enough or something and the filling wasn't creamy at all ;(. I add 6 (!!!) drops of food colouring and it was still yellow. and the result was super sour ;(

Can this be used with the pumpkin pie recipe that you showed us
- November 18, 2013 at 6:59 PM
- no whoa said...
Even tho this is old post it is "My first" pie, (cheated and used my Juanita's mom's pastry which is basivally identical including the pricking) so easy, so tasty, so limey ... served to the sailing crew at early spring poker party and rave reviews (I am no longer just the skip) that were drowned out by the moans from the bacon jam contingent .... oh, what a night
thanks to you and family

Just an observation for you :) Real Key Lime Pie is yellow, not green. I'm sure it tastes delicious, but I live in Miami and every Key Lime Pie I have ever eaten is yellow. Matter of fact, they will tell you that if it is green, it's fake. How funny! BTW I love your videos. Going to bake an apple pie from scratch for Thanksgiving thanks to your videos!

I chased all over the internet to find this video. Wanted to see your Mom's fluting technique. Very pretty indeed. I never add food coloring...just a teaspoon or two of lime zest. I learned something new...to use pastry flour instead of AP flour. I use your food processor pie crust recipe with the tablespoonful of vinegar. Makes a dynamite crust.

Truly wonderful objets
Reflections in a car window
I'm enthralled with decorative door mantles/cartouches in the 8th enroute to the Metro to Versailles
I didn't get to Versailles till 3 PM when the crowds are supposed to be considerable less
My mother-in-law came back from visiting our beach house in Northern Florida, where there is a french bakery/cafe'. She was supposed to bring me espresso macarons (my favorite!), but instead brought back what amounts to chocolate sugar cookies. Amateur. Je pourrais juste pleurer!
I am deeply traumatized and will be moping for the rest of the week, thank you!
Have some for me love :p)

Oh, you are lucky to have found your glasses...buy a lottery ticket!
Isn't that just the best place, Camondo? We lived quite near and my son went to school at Ecole Bilingue, just on the edge of Parc Monceau (another heavenly spot to people watch and read..check out the fountain & statuary in the corner near Blvd. Malsherbes entrance) so I was there often. If you haven't been you should also see the Musee Guimet --you are making me quite homesick! And aaah, that gray weather, those Fall days when you rush into a cafe to warm up and it is all steamy and cozy inside...profitez bien...(by the way, Obama gave a fantastic 30 minute speech last night, just fyi).
ReplyDeleteDear Carol:
Your blog is a daily jewel that I look forward to opening to remind me of Mon Paris. I am so glad you went to Nissim de Camondo. I went there 2 years ago and was struck by the beauty and the sadness. Nissim was killed in WW1 and his sister and her family were wiped out in a Nazi concentration camp. There is a tiny plaque that says this in the museum.
I love your paintings and when I get a job, I hope to start collecting them.
Have you been to Angelina's on rue du Rivoli? Great chocolat chaud.
Thanks again for your blog
when we were in Paris, my friend maryann johanson (www.flickfilosopher.com) stopped on the Champs Elysees to check something on her computer. she laid her favorite sunglasses down, and they promptly slid off into the traffic below. allors! we must go immediately to the Monoprix and buy a new pair of the sunglasses, which we did. several months later, she loses them in Target. necessitating another pair of sunglasses -- not nearly so elegant or memory-filled, but still. she'll always have paris.
ReplyDeleteHello..................I loved your photos today (and EVERYday) and wish I was in Paris too. After reading your blog I must tell you our story. Last year in Brussels, my husband laid down his camera lens cover on a ledge in the train station while we were waiting for the train to Brugges. On the train , we realize the lens was gone. Late, late that night, we return to Brussels, walk to where we were and VOILA !!!! the camera lens !!
I was thrilled to read that you too found your lost item, your glasses.
I love Paris Breakfasts and hope you have many more wonderful adventures !!
I will be reading.
Blessings, Abbey
Hi Carol--My name is Karen and I live in Tallahassee, Florida but am an ardent francophile. Just wanted to share with you that on my last trip to France we were in Haute Provence near the Sisteron autoroute entrance when I got out to take some photos of these wonderful larger than life concrete sheep sculptures that were "frolicking" in the rond point just off the autoroute caisse. Well I was wearing one of my favorite scarves--this gauzy kiwi green lacy embroidered thing and it was windy so without my knowing it, it blew off and I didn't catch it being missing until many kilometers down the route. I was heartbroken but my husband was sure we'd never see it again so we went on about our day. Next day, I sneakily planned to drive past that rondpoint again on the way back from Vaison La Romaine and miracle of miracles it was laying in the gutter soaking wet like green kleenex and full of asphalt pebbles but I found it! Back at the Auberge Charembeau in Forcalquier I washed it by hand with Linen Wash (truly a miracle cleaner) and it came out good as new. I never travel now without a mini bottle of it. So glad you were able to find your glasses on your return and I hope they were no worse for wear.
Happy Halloween!
I enjoy your photos and watercolors so much, keep up the good work.
Really nice shots of the Tour Eiffel by night and the Versailles entrance !
Thanks for helping me discover bits of Paris I never see... I don't
mean the afore-mentionned landmarks that you have a hard time missing,
I mean the small shops and galleries commerçantes (maybe it's best I
don't try all the patisseries!).
Happy Halloween, I guess, hope you enjoy your visit in Paris. Oh, and
I hope to go to the Salon du Chocolat too !
And that's enough exclamation points, so I'll stop now.
oh you're so lucky! I've never lost glasses til this summer, and I've been wearing them for 40 years. I lost a pair of very expensive subscription BIfocal sunglasses. Asked at the lost and found of a couple of places I had been, but they are just gone.
Love your site, by the way!

I just managed to get php to build on my musl system:
Next up should be to try to get the phoronix test suite running.
An issue that I still have is chainloading from my syslinux on my Arch root partition (/dev/sda1) to my "sabotage linux" partition (/dev/sda4). Somehow it does not get it and the syslinux info is not that informative unfortunately. The system does however run nicely in a chroot so some preliminary tests of musl libc with pts could probably be done already but ideally I should run a clean system without overhead from a host system.

Preschool Activity Trays
56 comments:
Wow, thanks everyone for all of your notes. I am so excited to hear that many of you are excited to incorporate these ideas in your own homes. I have found that through my own experience, you can learn fairly quickly what is too simple or too challenging for your child. All of these activities can be modified to fit the needs of your preschooler. If you have any questions how to do that, please feel free to send me a note! :)
ReplyDeleteYou have no idea how excited I am over this post! What amazing ideas! I part time homeschool my oldest child and follow their curriculum they send home for her home school days (school is set up this way for all the families...long story and sorry if I have confused you) but my youngest is ready for all of these even though she just turned 3 and I have wanted to start something this year. You have inspired me so, so, so much! Thank you! Hugs!
JessicaThese are great ideas! I'm a secondary level teacher, so I've been struggling a little for ideas to use with my toddler this upcoming school year. Although she's old enough to be placed in a "nursery school," I didn't feel any of the local schools fit our needs. I plan to work with her myself until she can enter pre-kindergarten next year and these activities will be a great help. Thank you so much!
ReplyDeleteTotally love these ideas! So simple to create but children will learn so easily with these tools. I am now following you on Google and look forward to making these awesome teaching tools this week for our grandbabies 2 & 3 yrs old.
And also I will be looking at all your posts to see what I missed!
Sue *firstname.lastname@example.com*Visiting from Homemaker on a Dime, I'm so excited to try these ideas! Thank you so much for this post, I have a 4 year old son and these would be great activities to do while my toddler naps!
www.modernwivelyhood.blogspot.comSuper activity!
I'd love for you to link up to our Crafts for Under Twenty Somethings party going on now. It's a blog hop specifically for kids and teens related "stuff", so your post would be perfect!
http://bearrabbitbear.blogspot.com/2011/08/crafts-for-under-twenty-somethings_24.htmlI teach pre-k and these are great ideas! I love to see how parents are preparing their children for school in fun ways! I also liked reading how the activity worked with you and your child. Doing patterns with more than two colors or shapes in the beginning is very hard. You were correct in selecting two to begin with.
I look forward to seeing what else you and your child do!

ReplyDeleteSome parents really prefer homeschooling especially for their preschoolers but others are just into it because of certain circumstances. No matter what the situation is, it is always important to make the learning process a fun activity not only for the kids but also for the parents (with the help
speech therapy Orange County for others). These methods you have shared are very creative and useful. Thank you for imparting this post. by the way, those seating dolls are beautiful!Love these ideas. I've already tried some during the Christmas holidays to help with "boredom." We begin homeschooling again this coming week and I want to continue with my preschoolers, and I know my 1st grader will want to try some too. Do you have any ideas or posts on how to use this idea for older children?

Dempster Solid, But Cubs Fall Short of Sweep
Another low scoring game between the Cubs and Pirates ended with the Pirates hanging on for a 3-2 victory to avoid a sweep at the hands of the Cubs. Ryan Dempster started for the Cubs, and I can't disagree with that anymore given everything swirling around Dempster right now. The good news I guess is that Dempster was really good despite being tagged with his 5th loss of the season. Dempster allowed three runs over six innings of work on five hits, he didn't walk anyone and struck out six. Leading 2-1 in the fifth thanks to a Anthony Rizzo solo home run, and an RBI single, Dempster couldn't hold the lead. He allowed a solo home run in the fifth inning to Michael Mckenry to tie the game, and gave up the lead in the 6th inning on a two out RBI double by Garrett Jones. Dempster was visibly upset in the dugout after the inning, and took his frustration out on a Gatorade cooler. It was nothing really, he just pushed it and threw a cup against the wall, he was later seen apologizing to the Gatorade cooler and asking it if Atlanta was a nice place, wait that's not right, moving on. The Cubs couldn't get anything going the rest of the way as the Pirates pen shut the offense down. Still a solid series for the Cubs as they take two out of three from the Bucco's, full box score and highlights after the jump.
