Before you do anything drastic like deleting everything for good, answer this question for me. Do you enjoy blogging? No, seriously. Don't think about things like who cares if I blog, nobody reads it anyway. My content must be terrible, nobody wants to share it.

Graduate education at the University of Minnesota is among the most comprehensive in the nation, with many highly ranked programs. But the U is looking to the future in a rapidly changing world. Last year, the University began a historic restructuring effort designed to enhance the student experience, streamline processes, improve overall quality, and remain competitive. One new group created through the process is the Graduate and Professional Education Assembly, designed to create a climate for University-wide collaboration and networking across diverse disciplines and to advance a broad conversation about the development of graduate and professional education across the institution. The inaugural assembly will be addressed by Princeton graduate dean William Russel, chair of the national Commission on the Future of Graduate Education—a group of 18 university and industry leaders and scholars. In April, the commission published "The Path Forward" ( http://www.fgereport.org ) to urge universities, employers, and policymakers to address areas of vulnerability. Priorities for universities include attention to recruitment, identifying and eliminating barriers to completion, opening nonacademic career pathways, preparing future faculty, and providing a professional development component at the doctoral level. Russel will bring the commission's national perspective to engage faculty, students, and staff and open a broader dialogue on Minnesota's path forward for graduate education.

This flaky and tender golden shell of a crust surrounds rich mozzarella and parmesan cheeses. It's filled over an inch high with whatever you can imagine and topped with a hearty and flavorful tomato sauce of your choice; it's one of my most favorite things to both make and eat, honestly. I make it rarely as a treat and the troops swiftly come calling. I use a standard pizza crust spattered with garlic and herb infused olive oil with a bit of butter to add some flavor. I brush that over my cake pan and dough and let the dough rest for a few minutes. Once the dough keeps shape, without springing back too much, I gently place it into the pan and sprinkle the bottom with a generous amount of parmesan. I bake this for about ten minutes in a moderately hot oven, which creates the shell crust, not too thick on the bottom and even thinner on the sides. You could potentially make this as healthy or unhealthy as you wish. You could go easy on the cheese and add a variety of grilled or roasted vegetables (don't add the vegetables raw or they'll release water into the pizza – yuck) or you could go heavy on the meats and cheeses. It's a blank slate for you to dream up any concoction.
Today, though, I'm keeping it simple with this tomato and cheese pan pizza. It's classic, delicious, comforting and one of my favorite all American treats.
Cake Pan Cheese and Tomato Pizza
Serves 2-3
Notes on Roasting Tomatoes: Lightly drizzle tomato slices with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Roast in a 400 degree oven for thirty to forty minutes. I do this the night before I make the pizza for a fast and easy preparation time easy enough for a weeknight.
cook time: 25 minutes
- 12-14 ounces homemade, pizzeria, or store bought pizza dough
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon butter
- cornmeal or semolina flour, for dusting cake pan
- 1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1 cup roasted ripe tomatoes
- 1 cup mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup marinara or pizza sauce (your favorite)
- Bring pizza dough to room temperature, preheat oven to 425°F and knead the dough lightly on floured surface. Cover dough with a clean floured kitchen towel.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, combine olive oil, garlic, red pepper flakes, basil, oregano and butter. Heat until warmed, the butter will be melted and the garlic and herbs will be fragrant when ready.
- Using a pastry brush, gently coat an eight inch cake pan with herbed oil and sprinkle bottom of pan with two teaspoons of cornmeal or semolina flour.
- Roll pizza dough out two inches larger in diameter than the pan you prepared. Brush all sides of dough with herbed oil. Pull on the edge of the dough, if it springs back like elastic, allow it to rest for three to five minutes.
- Place dough into prepared pan, pushing into corners, gently
- Sprinkle dough with parmesan and bake in preheated oven for eight minutes.
- Remove from oven, add roasted tomatoes and mozzarella. Return to oven to bake until cheese is golden and bubbling, about ten minutes.
- Remove pan from oven (one last time) and top with sauce. Return to oven for another five minutes, or until sauce is hot.
- Top with additional parmesan if desired. Allow to set for ten minutes before slicing.

Amazing place , beautiful view, food is great ! People are so nice. There is even a dog and two cats, i liked that.
Stopped here as part of Cosmic's Mountain Sunset tour, amazing views,complementary glass of wine while we chose our meal. Meal was more rustic than refined dining compared to some of Kassiopi taverna's and restaurants.A plate of free watermelon to finish.
Wonderful place to watch the sun set, but only an average place to eat.
Just back from 10 nights in Kassiopi, booked the Mountain sunset trip through cosmic tours in the resort, views from the top of pantokrator absolutely fantastic and when you think it can't get any better they take you to sunset taverna where the view is stunning the food was great, the service was great, company was great, would highly recommend...
After great day at the beach, we seat in this fantastic taverna. Meal was fabulous and the view FANTASTIC!!! I eat pork and my girlfriend lamb. Fantastic meal, great price and view with sunset breathtaking
As part of evening trip with Cosmic Kassiopi thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this friendly taverna. The Stifado was best ever and have tasted a few over the years and host very attentive and reasonably priced. Enjoyed the complimentary watermelon and liquour as we watched the spectacular sunset even though there were a few low clouds ....we were lucky as...
On searching Cosmic travel pamphlet Bill and I decided one our trips must be the sunset mountain trip. Mike and Vera told us about it and so we were booked. Bus trip, visit to the monastery at the top then down a wee bit to the Sunset Taverna... Great... really looking forward to it. Yannis our driver was superb, informative...
We had dinner here after the mountain trip.
The setting is stunning. The host is very friendly and service was good. The food was lovely and portions generous. The cheese pies and spinach pies as starters were excellent.
Good value and I would recommend to others.
We went on the Sunset excursion with Cosmic Tours from Main Street Kassiopi in August 2013. Although unfortunately it was very misty we still had a fantastic view of a wonderful sunset and the hospitality and food at the restaurant 2nd to none. Highly recommend this trip and will certainly be going back this year. Thank You Sunset Taverna, p.s....
I believe this is the restaurant in the mountains that people visit as part of a trip to watch sunset?The views were amazing and the host a very nice man, however the food was very average, I found the restaurants in the kassiopi much better in terms of quality, taste etc. You are paying for the view so if your...
We did a 'Mountain Sunset' coach tour with Cosmic tours on the main street in Kassiopi, €15 for the tour not including dinner. They bring you to the top of Mount Pantokrator and then on to Sunset Taverna for dinner. We thoroughly enjoyed this trip and the dinner was fabulous. The views from the restaurant are spectacular, especially in the...

Owen Sound Things to Do
Hiking the Bruce Trails
The Bruce Trails is an 800 km hike that follows the Niagara escarpment from Niagara to the Bruce Peninsula. I've only hiked a fraction of it but what I saw in a few miles convinced me to do the whole trail bit by bit. I felt like I was in a rain forest and all of a sudden, I'm on top of a cliff looking down at what looked like the Carribean!...more

Owen Sound Nightlife
Nightlife? Not so much.
Owen Sound isn't really a place to come to for nightlife... but if you must, there are a couple of rather dismal bars (as someone else mentioned above). In the winter around Christmastime, there's a rather impressive display of lights and decorations all along the river (which runs through the center of town - you can't miss it). To the best of my...more
Bar Scene Sucks
When 'going out on the town' in Owen Sound, there's not much selection. Basically, you have two places to choose from, Beach Brothers, which has a very small clique following, and The Harb, which has, over the years, become the better of the two bars. Right above The Harb there's Smugglers, a strip club, but its not for the faint of heart or anyone...more

Owen Sound What to Pack
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: If you're doing any sort of hiking along the trails, make sure you have good hiking boots. It can get quite slippery and trainers just won't cut it - lots of moss covered rocks and watch out for the tree roots!
Photo Equipment: YES!
Miscellaneous: We took a portable burner to make coffee when we found a pretty spot during the hike. No open fires allowed!

Owen Sound Favorites
Favorite thing: St. George's is a very striking and attractive Anglican Church on the eastern side of the town center. It dates from the early 1880s, and was built with the local "Niagara Escarpment limestone." It's in a historic style that reminds me of some of the classic churches of rural East Anglia: John Constable could have painted it!
It's at "Salvation Corner" - the intersection of 10th Street and 4th Avenue east.Related to:

If that happens there are two strategies we've used: 1) let your rode out quite a bit more and then maneuver your boat to get "unstuck" - sometimes easier said then done (you just have to try it out) or 2) tie your rode to a life-ring and come back for it (this one kind of freaks me out, I have nightmares about losing our beloved Bruce). I'm sure there are other strategies.
Good luck to you! Have fun!
Use a kellet as I have described above. Since we used one we have not had to experience anchor rode wrap around the boat, keel or prop again.
If you don't the rode may decide to saw through the soft lead keel when you wrap. I have seen it leave quite an indention in a Tartan 34 once when it wrapped the beavertail part of the keel and gashed it pretty well.

Past TENT present TENT and future TENT
from M.I.A. – ATENTion Lyrics on Genius
Both on songs — see the Untitled bonus track off Arular — http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=N1-2Y6A-8rQ#t=123s — "educated but a refugee still"
and interviews — see M.I.A. on Q TV — http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=uaK0YBA8Lss#t=2184s — she still feels a refugee. So on this line she's making a pun with Past/Present/Future Tense and Past/Present/Future Tent; that means "Refugee State Of Mind".
For extention, the above mentioned line can be referred to all those who do not adapt to that society they live in or do not mirror themselves to it, as Jiddu Krishnamurti said and M.I.A. has quoted early this year:
"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society"

The open-fronted kitchen is an exciting feature, enabling diners to enjoy the frenetic activity as the Head Chef and his team prepare and cook the wide variety of food on offer.

A "collection agency" means any person engaging in business for the purpose of collecting or attempting to collect, directly or indirectly, debts owed or due or asserted to be owed or due another, where such person is so engaged by two or more creditors. The term also includes any creditor who, in the process of collecting his own debts, uses any name other than his own which would indicate that a third person is collecting or attempting to collect such debts.
A "Collection Agency Manager" means a natural person who qualifies under the Collection Agency Regulatory Act to be in full-time charge of a licensed collection agency, and to whom a manager's license has been issued by the director.
A "repossessor" means a person engaged solely in the business of repossessing personal property for others for a fee. The term does not include a duly licensed collection agency.

Gear Review
Andre Shoumatoff
Good, but does collect moisture
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This is only after a couple nights use. I removed it from its stuff sack and I put the bivy portion in a small stuff sac that is smaller than a nalgene, and then the poles seperately. It only needs two (correct -- TWO) stakes to stay up including in the wind. You don't need the other stakes and the guy wires unless you really want them.
The big thing is that like all bivyies is that it collects moisture. I'm tall (6'5) and it had plenty of room for me and my gear. It was the least clustraphobic bivy I've every used and about as good as they get. The issue is the bivy itself versus a 1 man tent and how you want to proceed. When raining, you have to close the door and you get in trouble with breath-caused moisture.
Andre Shoumatoff
Replying 1 year later, review still holds true. Great bivy for the money, one small step away from a Gore-TEx, blocks rain, packs light, use the poles if you want (which I do, and like). Great room . super light...

Ryan Hanigan was never a prospect to get excited about, but by replicating his numbers in the minors at the major league level, he has shown that he has a lot of value. The same is likely for Cozart. Cozart will probably never be an all-star (although I wouldn't rule it out completely), but he will at least be valuable to a major league team somewhere. That doesn't sound exciting to some, but personally, I'm thrilled.
As bad as the SS position has been the last few years, I can't blame you.
Since Larkin retired, it's been Aurillia, Lopez, Gonzalez, Hariston, Keppinger, Janish and now Cabrera. Not to much to be excited over. 5 of the 7 couldn't or can't play neutral D at the position and the two that can or did have had trouble at the plate. Cozart could possibly do both.
If you can't be a good example... then you'll just have to be a horrible warning...
Nothing tastes as good as being fit feels...
"You can't let praise or criticism get to you. It's a weakness to get caught up in either one."
--Woody Hayes
Another big game for Zack Cozart today: 3-for-5 with two doubles and his 15th HR. He's now hitting .313/.402/.575 - .977 OPS in July and .266/.333/.457 - .790 OPS overall. Pretty solid numbers overall.
I miss Adam Dunn.
You know every once in a while some players play better at the major leagues? I have a feeling Cozart will be one of them. Seeing better pitching will probably give him a bump.
Total guess work on me.

"No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference." ~Tommy Lasorda
What is O cab's contract like next year? Thought they were reporting $3 millions option with $1 million buyout. Anyone know if it is player or team option?
Worried if Ocab is here next year, there is no chance Cozart gets a chance.
1 year/$3.02M (2010), plus 2011 mutual option
$1.5M signing bonus
2011:$4M mutual option ($1M buyout if player exercises and club declines; $0.5M buyout if player declines)
I can't make sense of the math, but to answer your question, it's a mutual option, but if Cabrera picks up the option, it doubles the cost of the buyout.
Cozart has done a great job on the basepaths this year. He's 23-for-26 in stolen base attempts. He's only three stolen bases behind the league leader (Desmond Jennings).
Whats interesting is that his BB% has doubled this season, but his power has dropped.
Imagine if the BB% stays where it is and his power numbers come back up a little. Could be looking at one heck of a good player.
A mid .700 OPS would put him around Stephen Drew type of bat. I could live with that, especially if he picks up a little in the slugging.
Actually nvm I was looking at his stats from 2009.
FAIL. Still my previous points still kinda stand since the stats arent all that much off. His BB rate is around 8% and the ISO is up over .180.

I had a Himalaya upgraded from 2003SE to WM5 (use TomTom etc) and noticed no speed difference - so I don't beleive wm5 is any slower per-se
The Playlists fuction seems v.poor in WMP 10 - no save, etc. But I have read this is common to all - not just this device.
Some sites state that the cradles for Jam / MDA Compact won't fit this - that is NOT the case - I got a v.nice audio cradle for the MDA Compact from mobile fun and it works very nicely - much more oem than the rubbish off ebay.
I personally have found mine a little flakey - but acceptably so - I do run A LOT of software - you notice the screen size more if you go back to a bigger screen - although it is difficult to use your thumb on this screen.
All in all I'm very happy (now I've removed skype --- see my 'not happy' post) because it does everything I expect from a Pocket PC In a pocketable form.. It is a shame it didn't get a 'proper' processor then I feel it would probably have been perfect
Again if it helps I have got the following to work (Puts my 'performance problems' into perspective :roll: ):
SOTI Pocket Controller
SGB Full Screen Keyboard
Merlin Tracert
Applian Quicklaunch (no widescreen support)
Applian Virtual Wallet (no widescreen support)

Sunnysoft Backup Manager
SPB Finance (syncing with Money on PC)
V-Mobile Software Network Browser (????)

1.Tomb Raider (amazing..runs so well!)
2.Age of Empires gold (equally brilliant and identical to real game)
3.Quake (runs a little slowly)
Of course i purchased these games but an unscrupulous person might find them available through other means ahem.
There are freeware games about, in particular there is a Gameboy emulator called Pocket GB that is free/shareware (small 'unregistered' on game screen) This will run Game Boy, Game Boy colour and Gameboy Advance games wich gives you a huge range of cool games. (tony hawks is unplayably slow so GBA games might not work so well without Overclocking processor.
There a few ideas

The Compact II delivers what many Magician owners have most been craving, the latest version of the Windows Mobile operating system version 5.0. Added to which was an upgrade to Quad Band and the inclusion of EDGE. While the extra band can prove most useful to the modern world traveller, given the rollout of EDGE in the UK is far from certain the inclusion of this in the device could be seen as incidental.
I did some searches and it seems that HTC Chatmer lacks of EDGE support. At least no any mentions of EDGE support in Charmer were found on german T-mobile site. Is there any reliable way to determine whether EDGE supported?

my cell operator stated that he support EDGE and it does not require to set on the device. Also he states that if option "CELL INFO" is activated - it should show message that GPRS/EDGE is available. After turning the device on I get two SMS: one with information of the district where I am currently and second one with "GPRS". But no any infor on EDGE. The abcense of any mentions on EDGE support on T-mobile site and GPRS only message made me to think that EDGE is not supported by Charmer.
,could you please give me a link for official spec sheets and is it possible to see that information on device itself?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure what more I can tell you Gekkon (did you try looking in your manual because it says it has EDGE in mine, clear as day!). To me it sounds like either your operator doesn't support EDGE at all, or that the particular area in which you're connecting hasn't been EDGE enabled (currently in the UK Orange have an EDGE network BUT that network is patchy with only certain areas actually having the coverage).

Thanks Zoky. Given T-Mobile in the UK doesn't support EDGE I wasn't able to say I'd used it myself...

The point was that I had no manual with my Charmer. Now I have and I found that spec on EDGE.

I was wondering if the TMobile MDA Compact II comes with .Net Compact Framework v2.0 preinstalled. In fact it would be nice to know what TMobile has and has not included.
I'm rather interested in using SudoPocket 1.4 (available at below link) but it says I have wrong version of .NET installed when I try running it.

The International Labour Organisation (ILO) considers people of working age to be in one (and one only) of three situations in the labour market: employed, unemployed, or inactive. The employed and unemployed together are known as the labour force.Read more
A closely watched indicator is the unemployment rate (the number of unemployed as a percentage of the labour force). The unemployment rate tracks what economists call "labour slack" – the match between the jobs on offer in an economy and the number of people seeking to work – and is a key indicator of a society's economic and social well-being.Read more
Labour force data are typically analysed by gender, age group (youth, prime age, older). They are also frequently broken down in many other ways for specific policy purposes: by economic sector, by occupation, by level of education, full- and part-time workers, the short- and long-term unemployed.Read more
OECD unemployment rate nudges down to 6.9% in March 2015
Harmonised unemployment rates, s.a.
13/05/2015 - The OECD unemployment rate fell by 0.1 percentage point to 6.9% in March 2015, with a cumulative decline of 1.2 percentage points since the peak reached in January 2013. Across the OECD area, 42.4 million people were unemployed, 6.6 million less than in January 2013.

Good Programmers
The article on Good Programmers is from Aussie contractor site www.Brainbox.com.au
Programmer Productivity
There's an interesting take on programmer productivity at Joel on Software at the moment.
Joel looks at the perennial question of whether it's better to hire good programmers or cheap programmers.
Many of us think the answer is obviously the former, but management almost constantly opts for the latter, which means they must disagree. Joel certainly does.
Best Programmers
He founded his company on the idea that hiring the best programmers is the best recipe for profit in software.
"So, why isn't there room in the software industry for a low cost provider, someone who uses the cheapest programmers available?" Joel asks. "(Remind me to ask Quark how that whole fire-everybody-and-hire-low-cost-replacements plan is working).
Here's why: duplication of software is free. That means that the cost of programmers is spread out over all the copies of the software you sell.
With software, you can improve quality without adding to the incremental cost of each unit sold. Essentially, design adds value faster than it adds cost.
Or, roughly speaking, if you try to skimp on programmers, you'll make crappy software, and you won't even save that much money."
Computer Science Students
He looks at some data collected about computer science students' programming assignments to see what kind of variation he can discover in productivity.
He found that out of the top 25% of students in assessment, the fastest programmers achieved the task in an average of only 6 hours; compared to 20.49 hours for the average and a whopping 77 hours for the slowest.
That's a hell of a difference in productivity.
But Joel sees an even bigger advantage to using good programmers than mere saved hours.
Mediocre Programmers
"The real trouble with using a lot of mediocre programmers instead of a couple of good programmers is that no matter how long they work, they never produce something as good as what the great programmers can produce," he says.
"Five Antonio Salieris won't produce Mozart's Requiem.
Not if they work for 100 years."
Internal Software
On one point he makes, I disagree with him, however.
He says his theory only holds true for software companies or "internal, in-house software is rarely important enough to justify hiring rock stars".
Take the example of internal software at a large bank with a few million customers.
This bank is dealing with millions of small tasks every day – administration, processing transactions, verifying cheques, paying staff etc.
The main aim of internal software is to make these transactions more efficient.
That says to me that better software – meaning more productive software for the end user – could save a lot of money.
Better Software
If you implement better software for verifying cheques that saves you one minute per cheque, this could add up to millions of dollars in increased productivity.
If internal software is used to increase productivity, it makes sense to do it well. The pay off could be huge.
The same holds true for external software such as a company website used by customers.
If your website brings in thousands more customers than your competitors, that small extra up-front cost makes it worthwhile.
Of course, most bosses don't understand this concept.
They see programmers as relatively interchangeable.
They couldn't be more wrong.
Good programmers are much more productive than average programmers.

Votes From FPL's Hurricane Sandy Crews Arrive Home First
Among the thousands of Floridians who voted by absentee ballot are work crews sent up north to help get the power back on after Hurricane Sandy.
Days before Hurricane Sandy hammered the northeast, hundreds of Florida Power & Light workers got in their trucks and drove north.
The crews were deployed as part of mutual assistance partnership between FPL and utilities along the east coast.
But even as they reset poles and hung new power lines from Virginia to New Jersey -- many were still able to vote from afar, thanks to a concerted effort by FPL, the largest utility in Florida.
"What we did was we had one person coordinate this effort out of a central location," says FPL spokesperson Sarah Gatewood. "So we had all the absentee ballots delivered to this one person. And they got it to the appropriate people to the field wherever they were in the northeast."
The utility didn't track the effort, so there's no way of knowing how many staffers voted from out-of-state.
FPL says the work crews have been making steady progress in the northeast, where the storm left eight million homes and businesses without power. Within the next few days, many of the FPL workers are expected to return to Florida.

ROSE Blog Interviews: Juliet Kemp, author and admin extraordinaire
ROSE Blog: Rikki's Open Source Exchange
In this interview, we hear from Juliet Kemp, sys admin extraordinaire and a frequent contributor to Linux Magazine/Linux Pro Magazine. Her articles in our issues include:
Serving up ASP.NET from Apache with Mod_Mono
Get Started with strace and Debug Faster
Techniques for Extending Your Website with CSS
Tuning in with Hobbit, Nagios, and monit
Remote Access Security with Single-Packet Port Knocking
Manipulating Your Machines with Puppet
Q: Who are you?
A: I'm Juliet Kemp; I'm a sysadmin and freelance writer on Linux. I've been using FOSS for getting on for a decade now, and working as a sysadmin for nearly as long. I recently wrote a book of Linux systems administration tips – Linux System Administration Recipes: A Problem-Solution Approach – and write regularly for http://serverwatch.com, http://www.linuxplanet.com, and Linux Format.
Q: What do you currently do in open source? What do you love about it?
A: Currently I spend most of my technical time writing articles – I really enjoy sharing information with other people, and doing my best to describe and explain things as clearly as possible. I've gained an enormous amount from reading the experiences of others, so it's great to be able to put something back. It's also a nice excuse to play around with things!
In hands-on terms, I volunteer as part of the Systems team at the Organisation for Transformative Works, helping to keep their servers running; and I've contributed a few patches to Dreamwidth. They're both really interesting projects, and I'm particularly enthusiastic about the high number of women involved in both of them. Coding isn't my main skill, but it's fun to have the opportunity to keep my knowledge up.
Q: You're speaking to a group of women from other fields who are considering switching careers. Why should they consider moving into an open source-related career? What should they know about the open source environment to prepare them for the transition from a different field?
A: For me, the really big pull of open source is that anyone can get under the hood and prod around at it – and then contribute. I think that's an incredibly powerful concept, and in practical terms it makes for strong communities and a lot of available help. (I always dread having to fix a problem with a non-OS program, because I know there'll be so much less information out there for me to access!)
Open source is very dynamic, too – the ease of contribution means that there's a lot going on. Also, the ideals of free-as-in-speech software and copyleft are really appealing to me.
All of that impacts on your experience in the field, but I think in a very positive way.
Q: You're speaking to a group of high school students (male and female). Why should they consider exploring career options in open source?
A: All of the above, really; plus I think that open source is only going to grow in importance over time. So it's a good direction to go in if you're young and starting out on your working life.
Having said that: I firmly believe that it's never too late to change job or career, and that you should never see yourself as locked into any particular direction. It's always OK to step back and do something else if you're not having fun any more. Open source does, I think, give you a lot of transferable skills, and it's a growing field with a huge variety of possibilities in job/career terms.
Q: What question do you wish I'd asked? And how would you answer it?
A: A piece of advice for women (and indeed anyone else) going into open source: Remember that you are competent, and be prepared to stand up for yourself. Believe in your own abilities enough to allow yourself to go for things that you think are just beyond you. Rising to the challenge is the best way to improve.comments powered by Disqus

Enviably situated in one of Cornwall's most picturesque valleys, this peaceful park awarded the David Bellamy Gold Award for Conservation sits just a few miles from the glorious sandy beaches of both the north and south Cornish coast. Situated in a quiet valley where the river Hayle flows down to the north coast, making it perfect for a tranquil holiday.Wi-Fi access is available in designated areas.A haven of rural tranquillity and relaxation, yet ideally situated for exploring, River Valley nestles in 18 partly wooded acres alongside its own clear, shallow stream. Shop available (Mar 28–Sep 26) and launderette* available for all dates. *Charges apply.
This park has:
Real reviews, from customers like you.
Wonderful location. Close to all we wanted to do and yet quiet and peaceful. Our only real complaint was the patchy wifi and phone signal.
Lovely peaceful setting.
Lovely area so near to everything. Site is lovely except the crows nests over the lodges. The site itself is massive but was very surprised that there wasn't even a swing park or similar. Hot tub was lovely and clean and serviced every day. I loved that it had a level access but not the distance to walk to it. Double doors were in the wrong place.
The cabin was clean but lack of shelves/hooks to put toiletries on.
NEGATIVE. I was dissapointed that towels were not included..no washing machine or tumble dryer...washing lines were not allowed. This is the only reason I will not be returning. Great holiday. Thank you.
Disappointed the shop and reception closed so early as given the location, and lack of any local facilities later opening would be appropriate.
Van was clean, lovely location.
Lots of adults shouting at each other between 10-12pm on a couple of the nights, not great with 2 children, equally not the fault of the staff either.
Insect mesh to skylights requires attention, quite a few flies were getting in. Swatting skills were tested!
Would probably stay again, but in a newer van. Hot tub sounds appealing.
Beautiful lodge in lovely surroundings, very much as described and in immaculate condition. The staff couldn't be more helpful. A car is absolutely essential but I wouldn't hesitate to go back.
Extreamly clean and tidy. No complaints. whatsoever
A really good site ideal to get to local beaches and suchlike. The site was ideal for a quiet retreat. Will definitely be returning to this site again.
Lovely well maintained site in picturesque valley.Quiet and secluded.
The weather was very cold and wet during my stay but the central heating and double-glazing ensured I was kept warm in the caravan.
Great location close to both North and South coasts. Wi-fi doesn't work though so be aware of this. Site was clean and quiet.
Would stay again definitely
Nice location near Penzance an St Ives. Plenty to do in the surrounding area. The only thing missing from the park is a clubhouse....the nearest pub is unfortunately too far to walk to.
However great park, fab location and plenty of things to do with the family in the local area....so you don't have to drive to far!
Only one thing missing, large slotted spoon or similar
Lodge quite good and would stay again. But quality of interior fittings not particularly impressive. IKEA like rather than hotel like.One or two of our Matresses lumpy and uneven, but maybe we were just unlucky!
It was so peaceful and relaxing no noise and all the staff were so helpful, the caravan was clean and tidy, we went out and about each day and knew that when we got back to the park that we could just relax.

Sessions Students are evaluated and have their progress assessed in several different manners.
We use the Elementary Student Progress Report from San Diego Unified School District. We employ the IB Learner Profile over the course of a school year to illustrate how well our students display the habits of an International Baccalaureate student. Students also self-evaluate and present their conclusions in our Student-led Conferences.
Elementary Student Progress Report
A new Elementary Student Progress Report will replace the Standards Based Report Cards in the 2014-15 school year for elementary grades TK through 6. This change aligns the elementary student progress report with the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and will indicate the extent to which students in grade TK through 6 are achieving grade-level standards. Students are evaluated on their achievement of grade level skills, strategies and concepts identified in the California Content Standards. The marks for each grading period indicate the student's progress toward expectations on a scale of 4 to 1:
4 - Exceeding grade level expectations
2 - Approaching grade level expectations
1 - Beginning progress toward grade level expectations
The progress reports will also provide information about the student's Social, Citizenship, and Learning Skills. It will be used for the November Student Progress Reports.
IB Learner Profile
In addition to the regular report card covering grade level standards, we report out on how well our students our students are doing with the Learner Profile. Teachers grade students based upon how often students are displaying the habits of an International Baccalaureate student. The report card is shown to parents at our first conference session and then sent home at the second and third conferences.
Student-led Conferences
In the spring we hold Student-led Conferences. This is an opportunity for students to share their perception on what they have learned, what their next steps should be and reflect on parts of the year that we particularly powerful for them. Listed below is the Table of Contents we use for our student portfolios.
Kate Sessions Elementary School
International Baccalaureate Student-led Conferences
Table of Contents*
Reading Work
Book bag review for level discussions
Reading a passage showcasing reading achievement
Writing Work
Showcase a piece of writing where growth has occurred
Showcase various genres that have been taught during the school year
Math Work
Showcase a summative assessment
Showcase a constructivist question on the benchmark assessment
Action and Reflection
Showcase an IB project that the student is proud of where growth has occurred
Showcase an IB project where the student has taken action
Showcase an IB project that shows growth in the IB Learner Profile
Reflections to include:
Why I chose this project
What I learned
What I am most proud of in my accomplishments
What I am still working on
* The above items are guidelines for students and teachers in selecting items for the portfolio that will be used for student-led conferences. However, it is not expected that all items under each category be included. Students will complete a reflection in each area discussing his/her thoughts about his/her growth in each area.

Tuna: A San Diego fish story
Exhibition captures the spirit, if not the smells, of an industry that once dominated the waterfront
"We think it is evolving in a very positive light," said Chris Lischewski, president and CEO of Bumble Bee Foods. "Health and wellness are huge buzzwords."
Many old-time San Diego families have connections to the industry. Some were honored recently at the history center's history makers gala.
Cannery voices
"We started very early in the morning, but it depended on how many fish were there. We used to work until 10 at night, if there were a lot of boats. WE ate lunch but we didn't have a break for dinner. We were paid by the hour; the more trays we packed, the more money we made. We were paid 33 cents per hour and an extra 30 cents per tray. It was hard work, but we did it. It hurt. My arms hurt, especially at the beginning., and we would be standing the whole time."
-- Katie Asaro, 1990
Brock Wery, 64, of Pacific Beach, wandered into the history museum while his family was at the San Diego and was startled to see an image of his father, Emil, flash by in a movie capturing his time as skipper aboard the Sea Hawk after World War II.
"Those were great times," Wery said. "San Diego was so much different back then. My dad was really happy. He loved the sea."
But Wery, like many sons and daughters of fishing families, didn't follow his father into the business after helping out at the docks: "I was pretty well fished out."
Starting in the 1950s, American fishermen competed with their lower-paid Asian and Latin American counterparts by building purse seiner boats and deploying nets (the "seine") around a school of tuna. The net was snapped shut, like a purse, closed at the bottom and brought alongside the boat where the fish were brought aboard.
Environmentalists began lobbying for tighter rules in the 1960s when dolphins and porpoises were inadvertently caught in the nets. The 1972 Marine Mammal Protection Act required American boats to take countersteps.
Then came the "tuna war" with Mexico in 1980, when American ships were fined and some seized for violating Mexico's 200-mile coastal limits.
The San Diego fleet, which peaked at 160 vessels, sought calmer waters in the western Pacific around American Samoa, where, fortunately, dolphins did not swim with the tuna.
The last San Diego cannery, Van Camp Seafood, closed in 1984 and 12,000 jobs were lost.
By then, San Diego was in the early days of a downtown renaissance. Seaport Village had opened, Horton Plaza shopping center was under construction and a waterfront convention center and hotels were in the works.
Today, all that's left of San Diego's tuna times is Tuna Harbor, a marina at the foot of G Street, where the American Tunaboat Association headquarters are located and a bronze sculpture stands in tribute to the city's tuna men.
"Fishing is a risky business, and the people who are involved in it are risk takers," said Brian Hallman, executive director of the 40-member association. "It was Americans that pioneered the industry, the purse seiner was developed in San Diego, and now it's all over the world. Here in San Diego, the fishermen developed that kind of industry, and we're rightly proud of them and proud to celebrate that history."

Lindsay Lohan has been spotted outside the safe confines of the Betty Ford Center and RadarOnline.com has exclusive details on why.
EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS: Lindsay Lohan's Family Album
As we revealed first, the Hollywood wild child has been photographed shopping at Forever 21 and on a movie date at a Rancho Mirage, California, mall near her treatment center.
But Lindsay is not getting any special treatment, a source close to the situation has insisted to RadarOnline.com.
PHOTOS: Sexy Stars Who Have Been To Rehab
"Lindsay is being allowed to leave Betty Ford as part of their renowned behavior modification program," the insider revealed.
"Once a patient has been at Betty Ford for 45 days and the person is progressing, their treatment team begins to explore letting the patient leave the facility for short outings.
PHOTOS: Sexy Stars Who Have Been Arrested
"The behavior modification program entails that if a patient is actively participating in group therapy session- and in individual sessions- and is generally progressing, they are given passes to leave for a short time.
"Lindsay is doing extremely well at Betty Ford, and her treatment team has been giving her passes to leave, and she is in turn participating even more and working very well with other patients."
PHOTOS: Lindsay Relaxes Poolside In Her White Bikini
Lindsay is allowed to leave Betty Ford with an approved patient, or a staffer, but also has the opportunity to leave alone, the source explained.
The source said: "Betty Ford empowers their patients with tools so that when they are discharged, the patient doesn't feel overwhelmed with anxiety about being out in the real world again.
EXCLUSIVE VIDEO INTERVIEW: Pat O'Brien Tells Lindsay Lohan, 'Get Clean Or You Will Die'
"Lindsay's counselors give her passes and if she has any issues while she is out, she can talk about it with her treatment team.
"It's one of the elements that sets Betty Ford apart from other treatment centers."
Lindsay "is very motivated by being given the passes" because when she was at UCLA Medical Center "she felt like she was being held hostage," the source added.
"That was one of the reasons that she relapsed so quickly," the source said.
"Now that she has been given these passes and experiencing a little taste of freedom, the odds of her relapsing are lower."

POINT PLEASANT — County officials and staff of the Mason County Sheriff's Department toured what will be the department's new home on Wednesday, checking out any last minute details that need wrapped up before moving in.
The final completion date was to be March 1, but as it stands right now, items left to complete are mostly minor, like tinting the outside glass, the installation of phones (including one for the elevator) and computers. There's also paving to do around part of the building which will wait until the weather improves. By the time these items are completed and the furniture is delivered, it appears the sheriff's department should be able to move in sometime in April.
Sheriff Greg Powers said the facility provided much more space and the modern amenities and features would allow day-to-day operations to run more smoothly. There are offices for the sheriff, chief deputy and lieutenant in charge of the evidence room. In addition, two deputies will each share one office and, in most cases, one of those deputies will be on the night shift, one on day shift which means it will be as if they have their own office during the time they are on duty.
For dispatchers and personnel, they have a new state-of-the-art high-resolution video surveillance package that allows them to view all angles outside and inside the building. This equipment, which is wired to a DVR that records upon movement being detected, has a low-light lighting system.
There is a handicapped-accessible entrance at the back of the building in an entry where the new elevator rests. The elevator operates on special keys that determines the floor to which you have access. For example, there's a third-floor apartment the commission is considering renting, and if that happens, that tenant will have an elevator key that only allows them access to the third floor. The remainder of the third floor will also be used for storage.
A portion of the second floor has space utilized by the sheriff's department as well. Powers said he hopes to use some of that second floor space to offer service training to officers from Mason County. Powers also hopes the department can offer classes, for a fee, to officers serving outside Mason County who require certain training and to maintain their certifications. This will make the space a site for continuing education and to bring in revenue. Another portion of the second floor will be used for courthouse storage. There are also two stairwell exits out of the building, one on the backside of the building, the other facing Main Street.
Mason County Day Report will be moving into the space currently occupied by the sheriff's department and will be paying $700 a month in rent to the county, utilities included.
The cost of the remodel is around $1.4 million.
