Evidence Points to Benefits of Active Teaching in STEM Education
An exciting new report was released today by the National Research Council, an arm of the National Academies. The report, "Discipline-Based Education Research; Understanding and Improving Learning in Undergraduate Science and Engineering," provides some clear direction, backed by extensive evidence, on how to improve science and engineering education in this country. Improvement in this domain has long been a national goal. But despite good intentions and the launch of numerous programs over the past few decades, progress has been too slow.
The new study summarizes a large body of research and concludes that, across the science and engineering disciplines, scholarly studies clearly indicate that "student-centered instructional strategies can positively influence students' learning, achievement, and knowledge retention, as compared with traditional instructional methods." It specifically cites such approaches as making lectures more interactive, having students work in groups, and incorporating authentic problems and activities into coursework as being superior to traditional lectures, which remain the mainstay approach to teaching in too many classrooms.
That these superior instructional strategies are not in widespread use today would come as no surprise to anyone who has strolled across the campus of a major university and observed what was happening in the science and engineering classrooms. Nor would it surprise anyone who has talked to university administrators or others about the barriers that interfere with adoption of superior instructional strategies, including the problems posed by current institutional priorities and reward systems.
The implications of this report are profound. It says that there is compelling research showing that there are instructional strategies that, when widely used, will give clear improvement in all aspects of undergraduate science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. And unlike many past efforts to improve STEM education that have been largely based on hunches and unsupported opinions, this report uses research to identify how STEM education can be improved and what must be done to achieve that improvement.
Importantly, the benefits of better STEM teaching can reach well beyond the narrow goal of giving STEM majors a better education. For one, use of superior teaching strategies can lower the attrition rate among STEM majors—an important goal articulated in a recent report by the President's Council of Advisors on Science and Technology. That report found that close to 60 percent of students who enter college as STEM majors change their major by the time they graduate, in no small part because poor teaching practices leave them uninspired and confused. Another benefit is that improved undergraduate STEM teaching can provide future K-12 teachers with a much greater mastery of the science they will teach, while demonstrating a better model for how science is best taught and learned.
Congratulations to the National Research Council for a job well done. If its recommendations are implemented, the repercussions of this report will go far beyond undergraduate STEM education.

The market has performed well in the last nine months. There is clear mandate for the government too. So, what is your view on insurance sector industry performance for this year?
Yes, sentiments have improved a lot and investors are full of optimism. We think the future is bright. Improvement is evident on ground also. Our first quarter performance has been good, and the second quarter has got off a decent start.
How much growth do you see in the insurance sector and the investment scenario unfolding this year?
We have a challenging target of 10% for first premium collection in life insurance business. We are hopeful of exceeding this target. And investments will depend on our core business. Investment surplus will rise if our core business takes off on pace.
Which are the best sector where LIC is investing?
The government is focusing more on infrastructure and power. So, we also think these two sectors will perform in future. Traditional sectors such as banking, IT, pharma and capital goods will also give return in coming years. So, we are continuing investment in these sectors and as well in infra and power.
What is investment surplus expectation, and in which segment your money will go?
Yes market have performed well in last three years So, we are expecting Rs 3 lakh crore of investment surplus. If you ask me category then we will invest 15% in the equity segment. Other investment options are also open for us.
Do you have any plan of launching unit linked insurance products?
Currently, we don't have any Ulip product in the market. However, we are thinking that we should have a product in the category. At the right time we will enter this market.
The market was expecting disinvestment in LIC? What is your view on this as chairman of LIC?
This decision has been taken by government. I don't have individual view on this issue. I believe that government's decision will be in everybody's favour.
Recently, the union cabinet hiked FDI limit in insurance to 49%? Do you think this move will help in increasing penetration?
Capital increases the productivity of insurance. Productivity will increase the impact on coverage of insurance, so automatically penetration will also rise.
In recent times, many cases relating to corporate governance have come out. Starting from Maruti Suzuki, JSW and now Cairn-Vedanta. But every time the institutional investors remain silent till proxy firms react...
Listed companies are well regulated. Listed companies' compliance with Companies Act & regulated by the Securities and Exchange Board of India. If such instances happen then it doesn't mean there is a systematic fault. And we always protect our rights and interests. We have an open talk whenever we sense any issues related to our rights and interests. We will seek clarification from Cairn and Vedanta (on Cairn's India's loan to group company) if required.

RECOGNITION that genetic tests were open to abuse in the 1990s led to a frank public debate about the ethics of testing and who should have access to the results. And while not all the problems have been resolved, at least we now know what the dangers are. Another area that is crying out for a similar debate is brain scanning.
Researchers have gone beyond looking at how a generic human brain works and are eagerly trying to identify variations in the workings of different people's brains. This week,

Thanks for posting those numbers Dirtgrain. Sounds about like what I would have expected. The owners over on Thumpertalk are complaining about ridiculously optimistic speedometer readings, so I'm encouraged that the X would actually do a measured 88 mph.
If I bought a WRR I think my first engine mod would be the Power Commander to remap the fuel injection.
$300, easily removeable, eliminates the worry about running EPA lean, no change in noise, and you'd have something in place to get the most out of any changes to intake or exhaust.
This engine is so far oversquare that I doubt anybody will try to bore it. I do expect stroker kits, because a longer stroke would do exactly what some people seem to want, which is move the whole powerband down about 2000 rpm lower in the rev band. On the other hand, tearing a brand new engine down all the way to the bottom and replacing a perfectly good crank and connecting rod assembly only makes sense if you don't believe Yamaha or one of the other manufacturers will do it for you in the next year or two.

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") has issued final rules ("Final Rules") setting minimum block trade sizes for different types of CFTC regulated swaps that are permitted to be executed off-facility and with a time delay in public reporting. These rules are an exception to CFTC regulations requiring real-time reporting of swap transaction and pricing data. This DechertOnPoint describes how investment advisers ("Advisers") may engage in these types of excepted trades, including when client consent is necessary, when aggregating orders across multiple clients to reach the minimum blocktrade sizes is permitted and the steps Advisers may need to take to obtain client consent to aggregate orders.
Background -
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act ("Dodd-Frank") directs the CFTC to promulgate regulations that require the real-time reporting of swap transaction and pricing data. However, Dodd-Frank also provides an exception to the real-time reporting requirement by requiring the CFTC to establish "the criteria for determining what constitutes a large notional swap transaction (block trade) for particular markets and contracts" and "the appropriate time delay for reporting [such large trades] to the public." In making this determination, the CFTC must consider whether real time disclosure "will materially reduce market liquidity." In addressing market liquidity, the CFTC acknowledged that real-time reporting of large trades could reduce market liquidity by alerting swap dealers and other market participants that a counterparty to a large trade would likely also need to enter into a large offsetting trade, giving swap dealers and other market participants the ability to charge a premium for such an offsetting trade.

The Vote Verifier Paper Audit Trail (VVPAT) system which enables EVM to record each vote cast is introduced in only eight of 543 parliamentary constituencies in India this election.
Lucknow, Gandhinagar, Bangalore south, Chennai central, Jadavpur, Raipur, Patna Sahib and Mizoram are among them, of which only Lucknow and Gandhinagar are yet to go to poll. Few polling stations in these constituencies would be coupled with the VVPAT system also known as EVM-paper trail.
The VVPAT system is a printer with a drop box, which is kept next to EVM. When a voter cast its vote on EVM, the VVPAT unit flashes the serial number, name of the candidate and the party symbol to confirm the voter's choice. A paper slip out of the drop box for a few seconds, so that the voter can view it. But the voter does not get to keep the slip due to 'security reason'. In case of some dispute, the candidates can apply for counting of the paper slips.
In October 8, 2013 order, the apex court had directed the EC to introduce the VVPAT system this election in phased manner. The EC had not announced the name of the constituencies till recently. Dna had raised this issue in April 2 edition.
The commission cities compatibility issues and other constraints for the dismal implementation of the SC order. "The VVPAT system is compatible only with post-2006 machines, which are 10% of the EVM count. Besides, EC couldn't train poll personnel in time," said an official.
Apart from these operational issues, the commission also failed to get enough number of VVPAT units in time from the state-owned Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) and Electronics Corporation of India (ECIL) – the two manufacturers available in India.
There are financial constraints too. "Approximately 13 lakh EVM machines are being used. If VVPAT is to be implemented in all the machines, it would require Rs1,500 crore to implement it," said an official.
The SC in its October 8, 2013 order, had stated that the VVPAT system with the EVMs would ensure "free and fair" polls and would help in "sorting out disputes". The court had also directed the Union government to provide financial assistance for the system.
The VVPAT was used in some polling booths in Nagaland and Delhi assembly elections 2013, and EC had expressed satisfaction over the outcome.
Dr Tushar Jagtap, the president of Maha-Mumbai Sabha, who had written a letter to EC in March, seeking details of the constituencies where VVPAT would be used said, "With this move, the EC wouldn't be liable for contempt of court. However, it would have been better if EC had ordered the VVPAT in time to follow the SC verdict in letter and spirit."

Comments [138]
CITIzens Stadium
1) Shea Stadium
2) Fans' Field
How about "you take your life in your hands crossing a major highway with your family from parking field"
I like City Field. Not too expensive to change one letter--they can keep their logo's font if they must but wouldn't it be cooler in New Yorker?
Willits Greed (hey, it evokes a NY sports legend, Citibank's hoggishness, and geography)
How about 'W.C. Fields', as in Without Citibank
I like Citizen's Field the best, but I like City Field too. People's Park is already taken folks.
Graveyard of Capitalism Field
What about "Shady Stadium"? As in Shady Financing practices and Shea Stadium combined- From Noticing New York-
(We just posted a four part series relating to this focusing on the adjacent Willets Point.)http://noticingnewyork.blogspot.com/
EVEN Playing Field
Can't be Citizen's Park, since the Mets' biggest rival plays in Citizens Bank Park. Go Phils! And I hope the Royal Bank of Scotland (Citizens Bank owner) doesn't fail too!
When I lost my job the week before Thanksgiving, I called my mom and asked her if it would be ok if I excuse myself from Christmas gift-giving this year.
How about Bad Timing Park?
I have two suggestions. One, Shea Stadium, or two, Jackie Robinson Field.
Of course, neither the Shea, or the Robinson families have $400 million over 20 years to pay the Mets.
Maybe we should sell the naming rights to a more solvent company so we can help pay for this!
Save money by just adding "MELESS" to the existing signs="SHEAMELESS STADIUM".
People's Park would be great!
Sorry Peter I didn't see yours above!
It's a BASEBALL field. Name it after some important BASEBALL figure. How about an important NEW YORK baseball figure? How about an important New York AND national baseball figure, who, criminally, still has no major league park named after him?
Jackie Robinson Field.
SEETHY Field
I know that Brian has a family program, and this is a family blog.
But the obvious name is derived from the same that many of us have used for years to refer to the sponsoring bank ...
S***ty Field
Not Shea Statdium, but Che Stadium
STEM Feild METS!!
TARP Park
Eminent domain park
potter's field
Seriously, Jackie Robinson Stadium is the only appropriate name.
The People's Stadium
Team That Never Spends Money On Pitching and Then Always Chokes In Post Season But Spends Money On Meaningless Structures As A Folly Of Their Top Executives Who Don't Know Squat or Care About Baseball But Do Know How To Overcharge For Seats and Food Park
I call it the TRI LETTER BRIDGE
The House that NINA bought. "No Interest, No Accountability!"
No Prospects Park
CHE Stadium
Shea & Gould. A big huge law firm that failed. Only in New York could a ball field be named after a Park Avenue Lawyer!
(Milton Gould was Bill Shea's partner.)
INflated Salaries Baby Players Who Make No Effort Feild
Shame Stadium
Subprime Stadium?
Taxpayers Fileld
Bankruptcy Park
Debtors' Prison
or Jackie Robinson Stadium.
SITY Field with the H
Casey Stengel Stadium
field of schemes
Debts Field...at least it rhymes with Mets Field
Brian can you also bring to attention that AIG is sponsoring the biggest sport team in the world - Manchester United.
The AIG logo is the Manchester United Jerseys.
I think it is a 9 million pounds a year deal.
Client #9 Stadium
Atlantic Yards Memorial Park
Bailout Ballpark
Field of Schemes?
I think the Field That Ruthless Built is reserved for the Yankees new stadium...
Blank Field
Here's a dedication to post beneath the new name: "Formerly called Citifield, As Taxpayers and Fans, We had to change the name, 'Cause we got a real citi-deal"
We Suck Field
Howzabout changing "Blue Smoke" to "Smoke and Mirrors" ?
rename the team: The NY DEBTS
Debits Field
Why don't they just change the 'i' to 'y,' which is the way i imagine it my head anyway. City Field.
23 dollar Hot Dog Pologrounds
The Toilet Bowl (in Flushing)
Same name, just spell it differently: City Field.
But I like Debits Field too!
Overpriced Beer Field
CITY field - take the corporation out of the name without changing the name.
#7 Park
Shea II
How about something subtle, like City field. If we are paying for it with our taxes, I suppose it belongs to us. The City of NY.
"Meet the Debts"
Flushing Pitching Stadium
How about "OUR" park?
"Don't Panic Park"?
"Field Of Broken Dreams"
More topical hilarity here:
Why.. leave it just to the Mets.. why not the Yankees too.. based on the questions around the finacing of th enew Yankee's Stadium.. I would like to suggest City Hall 2
What is going to happen to the arena at Madison Square Garden that's named for Washington Mutual?
What about Citi-zen (citizen) Field
City Council member James Oddo of Staten Island advocates naming it "Taxpayers Field".
I would support such a name change.
I like The Ballpark @ Credit Default Swamp
I love the Bob Murphy idea.
In fact, it was marvelous when the Mets would visit San Diego and Bob's partners followed his lead and refused to say the new name.
One problem with ALL of these corporate names is how often play by play announcers DO tend to say them ... clearly in an effort to kiss the behinds of the moneyed and influential corporate sponsors.
Of course the other obvious suggestion is Jackie Robinson Stadium.
How about Cit_y_ Field?
If you build it, they will fold..........
SINO field - after the bank of china buys what's left of our economy.
Mistake by the Van Wyck
Stupidity Field. Greedy Field. Type A Personality Field. Pride Field.
But seriously, how about simply Mets Stadium?
Queens field
How about CITY FIELD, with the "Y"
Financial Follies Field
citi field @ to big to let fail stadium
brian, why all the focus on the Mets?
why haven't we heard anyone clamoring to name the new Yankee Staidum TAX EXEMPT BONDS STADIUM?!
Potter's Field.
Lack of Security Stadium
Shea Stadium has a nice ring to it.
Paulsen's Park
I think we should call it "The smartest guys in the room Park" ala, the Enron movie. It seems we have not learned any lessons from the past.
-Yankee Fan
Waste of Money Park
i get confused. isn't this a loan (bailout.) if a loan is to be paid back why would we own the asset (the naming rights)
10 -- hilarious!!!!!
Shame (Shea-m) Stadium
Sucky Team Field
It should be called the Polo Grounds, following a generous contribution by Ralph Lauren's Polo brand. Of course, the Mets first played in the Polo Grounds, former home of the Giants.
How about Americas Park
RICH ....uh...PERSON...(had another word in mind) FIELD. Hey, the cost of a baseball seat (A CORPORATE LUXURY BOX for the ENTREPRENURS of our great society). How much again for a so called cheap seat in the SMALLER BALL-PARK for the few??? To watch overpaid b-ball players lose in September? Que???
The Free Market
Field of Nightmares
New Socialism Park
Stop Terrorism Field
Genocide is Wrong Field
Gay Marriage is Pure and Proper Ball Park
Potter's Field
Chez Mets
Team That Never Spends Money On Pitching and Then Always Chokes In Post Season But Spends Money On Meaningless Structures As A Folly Of Their Top Executives Who Don't Know Squat or Care About Baseball But Do Know How To Overcharge For Seats and Food Park
Bailout Park has a very nice ring to it :)
"Global Financial Gambling Field"...gets my vote!!
Shea Stadium
I second the comment about renaming it Shea Stadium.
If not that, how about the Polo Grounds?
How about The People's Republic of Citi Field?
how about PAUPERS' FIELD
How about "Shea Stadium"?
Rather than Citi - call it National field - the whole country's bailing them out.
Rubin's Folly
I'm a Mets fan, but maybe Choker Field would be appropo.
how about:
"we, the schmuck taxpayers, have another useless field" Field?
How about Citizen's Field?
How about : "Rubin-Bloomberg-Geithner Park" or "Global Financial Gambling Field"
"People's Park" sounds about right, since we shoulder all those tax incentives to attract stadium development to cities. We invested and our name should be on it!
Oh, and before I forget, rich people and companies living, working, and making profits in NYC must pay their FAIR SHARE of local taxes. You know, because we have to pay for roads, water, trains, and all those goodies that make business possible.
or just back to Shea??
How about: "New White Collar Mafia Field"
Or a Nice Name/Jingle combo:
"SeethI Field:" "Not Just your City or your Tax Dollars, but your Investment, Savings and 401K dollars at work! Are you seething now?"
Citizen's Field.
The $5,000 voucher idea is a great one! Why didn't someone i.e. the bright lights in government, think of that!
Great idea!
Bailout Ballpark...anyone?
How about METS SUCK stadium.
That sounds good. :)
Proletariat Field
People's Park has a wonderful ring
along the lines of 'the house that ruth built' (yes, i know it is the other NY team)...
perhaps 'the house that YOU built'
How about The Ballpark at Credit Default Swamp?
Bob Murphy Stadium
for two important reasons...
1) He was a beloved Mets announcer for most of their existence.
2) Jack Murphy stadium was named for his brother and the name was eventually changed to some corporate name and this deeply saddened Bob Murphy who even expressed these feelings on the air during a game once. This woould be a nice tribute a man loved and listened to by countless Mets fans for over 30 years.
I would like to rename Citi Field to Paulson's Folly
Credit Default Swap Meet?
Collateralized Met's Obligation?
The Mets: Too Big to Fail! Stadium!
Peoples Park
how about 'people's park?'

- Shopping Bag ( 0 items )
From Barnes & NobleFBI agents Dillon Savich and his wife, Lacey Sherlock, are in the middle of a frightening case involving two psychopathic killers and a series of ghoulish kidnappings, when trouble hits on the home front. Dillon's younger sister, Lily, has been injured after crashing her sports utility vehicle into a giant redwood tree and, if Dillon is to believe Lily's father-in-law, the crash was no accident. But was it another suicide attempt, the second since Lily's daughter was killed by a hit-and-run driver just seven months ago? Convinced that fast answers could save Lily's life, Dillon and Lacey race to California's Hemlock Bay, and what they find proves shocking even to them.
Unbeknownst to Lily, her latest "accident" is part of a twisted plot to steal from her eight valuable paintings bequeathed to Lily by her famous grandmother, artist Sarah Elliott. When Lily leaves Hemlock Bay, taking the paintings with her, it doesn't take long for art broker Simon Russo to spot four of the paintings as forgeries. So where are the originals?
That's what Lily and Simon are determined to find out, following clues that will take them from prestigious Washington, D.C. galleries to New York, back to Hemlock Bay, and across the globe to Switzerland, where a notorious collector holds the secret to the missing paintings -- and Lily and Simon's fates -- in his hands. And this time, they're on their own, as Dillon and Lacey are called back into action to catch a killer whose terrifying powers exceed anything the FBI agents have ever encountered anywhere in this world.

UWRF Faculty and Staff Honored at Reception
By Kate Smith
OCT. 20, 2008--Several University of Wisconsin-River Falls employees were awarded the top recognition awards at a reception in the University Center Oct. 15.
Chancellor Connie Foster opened the ceremony, thanking the recipients for their service and commitment to UWRF. "The leadership recognized here today is an important part of a tradition of excellence and the culture of this campus," she said.
Mary Halada, vice chancellor for administration and finance, presented the Chancellor's Recognition Award for Classified Staff to Ron Lundgren, a carpenter in the facilities management department, and Doreen Cegielski, program assistant in the animal and food science department.
Halada also presented the Chancellor's Award for Excellence for Academic Staff to Mark Kinders, director of the University Communications office. Provost Terry Brown recognized Travis Tubre, a professor in the psychology department, as the Distinguished Teacher of the Year.
Ron Lundgren
Ron Lundgren has been a part of the UWRF campus community since 1991. He works as a general services carpenter for the facilities management department.
Lundgren began his career at UWRF as a LTE carpenter. From there, he moved into an facilities repair position before transferring to work at UW-Stout as a full-time carpenter. Lundgren later returned to UWRF full-time to take his current position of general services carpenter.
When he is not working, Lundgren enjoys spending time with his grandkids and pursuing his hobbies, which include cooking, gardening and yard work.
Doreen Cegielski
Doreen Cegielski has served the UWRF community in a variety of capacities for more than 15 years. She began her career at UWRF in 1992 working in the University Bookstore. Since then, she has worked in the health and human performance department, the animal and food science department, continuing education/extension and career/counseling services. Cegielski's current position is an academic department associate in the animal and food science department, where she oversees student workers, manages the UWRF equine herd inventory and manages aspects of the department budget.
In addition, Cegielski has also served on several UWRF committees over the years, including co-chair for the 2007-08 Employee Development Committee. She was also a member of the Chancellor's Recognition Award for Classified Staff voting committee and the Sally Margis Award voting committee in 2007. Other committees she has served include the Campus Safety Committee, the Chancellor's Student Recognition Committee and the Commission on Status of Women.

Mark Kinders
Mark Kinders has served as director of University Communications for UWRF since 1985. He is responsible for media, community, legislative and congressional relations, as well as overseeing the photography services and sports information departments. In December 2008, Kinders will assume the Vice President for University Relations position at Northeaster State University in Oklahoma.
During his time in this position, Kinders has contributed significantly to endeavors at UWRF. He initiated several legislative advocacy programs, including Falcon Action Network, which helped secure funding for UWRF's health and human performance building.
Kinders is also currently the chair of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities Advisory Council of Communications and University Communications, which advises the AASCU on its communications with Congress, the administration and the public.

VIDEO/PHOTOS: Baseball: Former Estero standout Tolisano settling into new position at hot corner

■ Zach See (Estero HS, 2008); RP, Minnesota Twins org.; in extended spring training
■ Tyler Bighames (Estero HS, 2009); SS, St. Louis Cardinals org.; on restricted list
Ever since he was drafted in the second round of the 2007 Major League Baseball draft, John Tolisano's life has been all about adjustments. First, the former Estero High star had to adjust to the difference between high school baseball and life in the minor leagues, then he had to deal with the first major injuries of his baseball career. Now he's adjusting to a new defensive position.
For the first time in his baseball career, Tolisano — who is playing for the Dunedin Blue Jays, the Advanced Single-A affiliate of the Toronto Blue Jays — is playing third base.
"It's been a challenge," said Tolisano, who started for Dunedin as they kicked off a four-game series at the Fort Myers Miracle on Tuesday night. "It's a difficult position to learn but I've been out there every day taking extra ground balls and I'm definitely getting more comfortable out there."
While Tolisano said he's improving, his statistics show that the transition hasn't been easy. In his first 21 games at third base this season, he's committed eight errors, including one that led to a run in the first inning of Tuesday's game.
Tolisano's high school coach at Estero, Frank Turco, said that while things have gotten off to a rocky start at third base for his former player, he believes it's the position that best suits Tolisano.
"Playing third will give him less time to think and he can just react to the play," Turco said. "I think he'll be good anywhere he plays but I think he'll end up growing to really like third base."
No matter where Tolisano ends up in the field, it's his prowess at the plate that will most likely earn him a promotion to the next level. Entering Tuesday's game, Tolisano was hitting .263 with one home run and nine RBIs in 27 games this season. The batting average is the highest of his minor league career.
"It's all about the bat," Dunedin manager Clayton McCullough said. "If he continues to work on his hitting and just get more consistent then he's got all the talent in the world and he'll get to where he wants to be."
Like any minor leaguer, the ultimate goal for Tolisano is to work his way to the majors. Currently, he's ranked as the No. 7 prospect in the Blue Jays organization by Baseball America. Earlier this year he got a taste of the big league life while playing for the Blue Jays during spring training.
"The Blue Jays are great about that," Tolisano said. "They bring their young guys up in spring training and give them a chance to get some work in. It's great to spent time around the big leaguers and sort of pick their brains."
McCullough, who managed Tolisano in the Gulf Coast League during the 2007 season as well as in Midwest League in 2008, said playing in spring training is extremely valuable in terms of a player's development.
"The more spring trainings they go to they pick things up from the older guys," McCullough said. "They also feel more comfortable in the surroundings which makes things a lot easier."
Tolisano certainly looked comfortable in his first at-bat on Tuesday night, when he ripped a double to deep right-center field. The Sanibel native said returning home to Southwest Florida and getting a chance to play in front of friends and family is one of the best parts of life in the Florida State League.
"It's just nice to be home sometimes," Tolisano said. "I get a chance to see everyone and spend some time eating some of mom's home cooking, it's great."

nice sketches but you've got to try and avoid using the blur tool so much. It's nice to see brush strokes rather than something that looks like a giant smudge and you don't do your linework any favours that way. Try to get a strong painting style for your colourings.

Love your sketches. The overbuilt / muscular look is great. Only suggestion is to resize your images to about 50-75% before posting... the bigger ones you have to scroll to see.

Hey there. Thanks for visiting my book; I've been dying for some feedback since a lot of my buddies have been inactive for a while.
You have some really nice stuff here. I'm a little in awe of your imagination on some of those monstrous profile heads--but can you turn them and show them from other angles? If not, work on that. It'd also be nice to see some more stuff without such wildly exaggerated proportions--you do those very well but they could become a crutch.
September 9th, 2007 #16
Lotta nice stuff goin on up in here yo. I like the vast majority of your techy designs, theyve got a fair bit going on with em and your monsters are cool to boot.
With your colours i really think they could benefit from a highlight as it would really bring them out, as is theyre ok but still not popping out as strongly as they could.
So if you dont mind ill slap a coupla links that are worth the read and illustrate the point im tryin to make.
^ He uses highlights really well imo.
Keep it up :3

dude, that shit is fucking awesome! everything you draw seems to have such a dark vibe, which I naturally like, and most of the armoured guys remind me of some sort of fallout universe.
The bunch of random... heads looks wicked also.

by Beatrice Hollyer
Work details
Wake Up, World!: A Day in the Life of Children Around the World by Beatrice Hollyer
No current Talk conversations about this book.
A great book for children to learn the history and how children live in different countries.The book focuses on eight children from different places of the world. It shows how they wake up in the morning, their routes to school, and their role in their households. Children would probably like to see how young children live thats around their age in different places.
A day in the life of children around the world
"Describes how children in eight countries spend their mornings."
Colour photographs on every page illustrate the daily lives of children in the UK, USA, Brazil, Ghana, Russia, Vietnam, Australia and India. The children protrayed are well fed and happy, though some live in relative poverty. Rather than presenting each family separately, their stories are grouped into activities that all the children share: waking up and starting the day, school, playtime, helping others, family meals, and bedtime. Royalties for the sale of the book go to Oxfam.
Follows the daily life of eight children -- in Ghana, India, Russia, Australia, the USA, Brazil, Vietnam, and the UK -- as they wake up, start the day, go off to school, learn at school, play, help others, eat, go off to bed, and dream.

Wake Up, World! follows eight children from eight different countries as each one goes through his or her day. Young readers can see how their own lives compare with other children's in such diverse places as Ghana and Russia, Australia and Vietnam, Brazil and England, India and the United States.

Nurse had little luck finding her half-brother — until she learned they were both members of the Navy family
When Facebook emerged, Murray tried to harness the power of social media to find her brother. But there were too many Bob, Bobby and Robert Williamsons.
Little did she know that while she served at the naval hospital in Bethesda, Md., her brother at one point in his career was nearby at Naval Air Station Patuxent River.
On Friday, Williamson and his wife got in the car at 4 a.m. to make the trek from the Central Valley to San Diego.
This weekend, there will be many stories to share. In the future, there will be Thanksgivings, Christmases, summer vacations.
"I hope so, I hope so," Murray said. "I would love to have that."
Her brother added: "Everything from here on out is just a blessing."

New York's West Village Food Tour
Read what other Viator.com travelers think about the New York's West Village Food Tour. What they loved, what they liked and what they think could be improved, it's all here to help you make the most of your next trip.

It was a excellent trip, learn some new west village culture and taste famous foods. And a lots fun to talk with our tour guide.
Highly recommended.
This tour was amazing!
This is a great tour. Dante was amazing!
Loved this tour. We had a great tour guide who interspersed the history of the area with the food stops. Each stop had delicious food.
Rick M
This tour was great! Dante the tour guide couldn't have been better! Fun times, great food what more could you ask for !!
Dante was great. This tour gives you a great overview of the West Village area as well as the various foods in that part of town. Dante also gives a lot of historical perspectives throughout the tour. Highly recommend!
Rachel W
This was a great experience! We only had one other couple on the tour with us so it was just 4 of us plus the guide which meant we had extra time to wander a little and get to know each other. Ian was our guide and he was fantastic: funny, knowledgeable, and easy going. The food stops were delicious and several were stops I wouldn't have found on my own or maybe even ventured into: obviously the lesson is that sometimes a hole in the wall serves delicious food! I'd been to NYC on over a dozen other occasions but had somehow missed exploring this area; this tour gave my friend and I the impetus to do so and I can see it rapidly becoming one of our favorites! So many restaurants: so little time! Great experience overall: I would definitely recommend this tour! Thank you!
Excellent tour! Dante was so friendly, accommodating and knowledgeable that we felt like he was a friend showing us around his home neighborhood. His knowledge was vast and style entertaining. Would definitely recommend the tour to visitors and natives alike. Loved it!
Reviewed on prior ticket purchased for same day
Although we are native New Yorkers, we weren't very familiar with Greenwich Village and its history. The tour was very informative and allowed us to visit parts of New York we'd never seen before. We felt like tourists! The food was good and the tour guide very entertaining. I would definitely do another food tour after this experience.
We have taken a variety of food tours in different cities through Viator and have never been disappointed. Our group was a nice size (9 people - of which we were 5), our guide was extremely personable and knowledgeable and my husband instantly bonded with him since he was also a UT (Tennessee) grad. We loved all the food - falafels, salami and Italian rice ball, Molly's cupcakes (we liked them so much we went back on our own another day), bagels and cream cheese, artichoke pizza and a cannoli. Greenwich Village is a beautiful area to walk around in. I would highly recommend this tour.

The tour was wonderful. Dante did an excellent job pointing out the pertinent and interesting facts in the area. the good was very good and the stops were well-timed! We had an excellent experience.
I cannot recommend this tour highly enough. Dante was superb as a tour guide and showed us an entirely different side of New York. The food was great, we learnt a lot and met some great people.
Great experience!
It was awesome. Dante was GREAT!! I tried foods I've never had before they were delicious!!! There was so much food. We had a great time.
What a fun and delicious tour!! We were entertained by our tour guide and educated. The food was exceptional!
We had great fun and the tour was very smooth and enjoyable. I would recommend this and I would take another tour
Dante was amazing... my daughter and I wanted to capture the flavor of the West Village and we were not disappointed!!! Yes it was a food tour, however Dante provided us with so much history and wonderful tidbits of trivia. We sampled delectable foods from six eateries which constituted a very large lunch.
Kudos to this tour...I would recommend it to anyone looking to see this part of NYC.
My stipulation would be...you have to have Dante!!!!!
We had a really great time on this tour. We enjoyed the samples and our tour guide Dante was great. He answered all our questions and made the experience extra special for us. We got to try foods that we normally would not have tried in places that we would not have found.
Great tour on an outstanding day. Dante was a very informative guide with lots of great information.
Interesting facts while walking around the West Village. Good intro to some places and would go back on my own another time. Thanks to Ian, our guide, who did the tour in the rain.
Great way to see a beautiful and unique part of the city.
Interesting/engaging/tour guide. Wish we could have a handout of the highlights of info shared as it is too much to remember but so very interesting. I have taken MANY food tours over the years. Comparatively, this was the LEAST amount of sampling but priced like others. Disappointed in this.
Our tour was great all round!! No complaints at all... Terrific guide too. Thank you.

I have just started working on a legacy ASP classic project and been given a sample that makes a remote call in ASP.net.
Is it possible to call the ASP.net page from ASP?
Are you they compatible.
My impression so far is that they aren't compatible, but perhaps. I'm wrong.
I mean the .net project could be called with parameters and kept seperate I guess?
Does anyone have any experience with similar problems or have any tips they can share?

Protect Your Employees
Don't wait for a dangerous, tragic event to happen before giving your employees the tools they need to protect themselves. Everyone needs to be in control of their safety and security at work. ePanic Button is a computer based panic button and incident notification system that rapidly sends alerts and messages to PCs and mobile devices so employees get the help they need – fast.
Situations for ePanic Button
- Front desk receptionist with angry customer or visitor
- Faculty member with upset student

Incident Notification System That Is Broad and Fast
- One click rapidly sends desktop alerts to PCs, SMS text and email messages to mobile devices and PCs
- Designed for early stage, low level incidents that do not require complex mass notification or emergency notification systems
Ideal for Low Level, Early Stage Incidents
Unlike complex mass notification systems that alert groups of people after a major security incident is identified, ePanic Button enables employees to be pro-active:
- Identify incidents when they first begin to prevent them from escalating
- Take control of the situation early on
- Request support or security for low level to high level incidents
- Receive the appropriate level of response from the right people
More Flexible Than Hard-Wired Panic Buttons
- Completely customizable
- Rapidly distributes alerts that say what you want them to say and identify the sender's name, phone number and location
- Distributes SMS text and email messages to mobile devices
- Desktop alert receivers confirm receipt to let the sender know the alert was read
