Pukka Cleanse
Cleanse Tea is a mellow yet refreshing tea. I would like it based on taste alone however the added benefits for my skin make it a 5 star product! I struggle with adult acne and feel as though I have tried everything to help clear it up. If I drink at least a cup of this a day my skin is radiant. Blemishes stay to a minimum and even seem to clear up more quickly. The effects can be seen all over my skin not just my face. I highly recommend Cleanse Tea.

Re: Colorado Springs Burgers
I can't help you with Burgers, but I thought perhaps you could help me. We are visiting Colorado Springs for the first time this summer for 3 nights...flying into Denver. We then want to visit another destination within 3 hours for an additional 2-3 nights before finishing up in Denver for the last night. Do you have any suggestions? Gunnison versus Rocky Mountain National Park vs. Breckenridge. I should note that we are traveling w/ our 2 boys ages 6 &8. Thanks!

Re: Colorado Springs Burgers
First of all, I would try to take the drive down to see Royal Gorge, just west of Canon City. I am sure your kids would love it. Our family really enjoys going to Brekenridge. Beautiful ski town at about 9100'. Good shopping and good restaurants. If you like Mexican food, make sure to stop in at Mi Casa. Service can be a little slow because of the crowd, but the food has been outstanding each time we have been. Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park will certainly provide you with some spectacular views. There are so many things to see and do in Rocky Mountain Natl Park, there is not enough space to write about it here. Your boys would probably enjoy Rocky Mountain Nat'l Park the best. Have a great trip.

Hidden Camera Detector Finds Wireless Cameras
Hidden Camera Detector: Love It or Leave It?
by Tech
Like us on Facebook
The Hidden Camera Detector from ThinkGeek appeals to the worst part of me — the paranoid, it could-happen-to-me part. I have seen way too many Dateline NBC exposing those with hidden cameras in ladies' bathrooms, workplaces, and even inside your own apartment! See, there it is!
In many ways I think this tool could be useful — at the very least, it would put you at ease. Not to mention, it's only $25 and tiny enough to fit in your palm, so no one is aware of your craziness until the thing starts working and emits an audible alarm, telling you that yes, you are on candid camera.
What do you think? Paranoia indulger or safety guarantee?

Being small I don' think it's going to detect wireless security cameras unless you are right under them.. That being said my bigger concern is wireless networks triggering it every time it passes through the 2.4ghz spectrum.. That being said you could probably deduct if it was a router by placement in hotel etc.. I kind of want this and the more powerful one (UHF\VHF) which has better customizable options..

I thought it was a good idea until I noticed that it worked only by detecting wireless signals. While it probably will work rather well for a wireless camera it wont work at all with a wired or battery powered camera with film. Thats kinda pointless.

I love the idea of it, but I'd like to know more about how it works. It seems it would create a faux confidence because it's unlikely that it would detect ALL types of hidden cameras, but I don't know how it works. I used to use the 'finger trick' to see if the mirror was double-sided, but I found out years later that it didn't even work and was just a myth, ha.

Talk about going green! Transform sturdy bags made from recycled materials into storage bags for fruit and vegetables in this tutorial from Jenya of MyEvaForeva. Easy to make and washable, these bags make going green simple.
- Heavy-duty recycled plastic bag, such as a bird seed bag
- Sewing machine
- Thread
- Scissors
- Ruler
- Wash your bag.
- Cut your rectangular. I cut out two. (Mine were about 8" x 14" and 13" x 24".)
- Turn the very edge of the upper line out facing the right side. (Note: The inside of the bird seed bag will be the oustide of the finished bag.) Fold two sides together and sew them together (wrong sides facing inside).
- Fold your tube so the seam is in the middle.
- Then push the side middle parts to the inside (like in the photo) so they are right near the seam.
- Sew along that edge.
- Turn the bag right side out and shape it to take a form of a cylinder.
Tip: These bags are machine washable.

That technology has been available for a few decades.
Yes it has. But there has been a fundamental shift in the accessability of the technology. A majority of this technology has historically been radio transmitters that cost hundreds (sometimes thousands) of dollars, recievers that cost similar, and models that actually require a solid understanding of aerodynamics to build, trim and fly. Dozens if not hundreds of hours of work to build it. An big investment of time, money, and a dash of pride meant that flyers protected their craft like a their first born. Flying near an airfield would be unspeakable; No way in hell do I want my toy wrecked by errant prop or jet wash! (..I guess it would suck if I brought an actual plane down as well.. I guess).
The only thing different about drones is that they are slow and hence easier seen.
I disagree. Any spanner with a credit card and a desire to see their neighbours tits can go buy a ready to fly FPV drone cheap on eBay, hook it up to their smartphone, and get in the air in a second. No expensive equipment investment, no time invested in the build, no incentive to protect their flyer. THIS is the difference, and it has seen people who would never consider an RC aircraft suddenly snapping them up like the "toys" they are often marketed to be. So now you have a bunch of people who have no knowledge about aerodynamics or aviation generally who suddenly think "wouldn't it be sick to go fly this around an airport for lulz and photos", and suddenly we have the problems we are now seeing. Most fixed and rotary wing hobbyists I know have an inherent respect for their fellow flyers, be they scale or full size pilots. We all share the sky, and we'd rather not kill each other.
HISTORICALLY there has been close to zero risk (no such thing as zero risk, where there are humans involved, there is always room for something to fuck up) but now the technology is more accessable to the "pleb public", the risks of serious incident is and will continue to increase. As you have said, there have been next to no incidents historically, but as many have pointed out to you, the fact this story even exists to publish is a demonstration that the danger is indeed increasing. To ignore these factors is about as ignorant as using an absolute term like "zero actual risk" when there is no way for you to know what is and has happened globally in the past.. however many years of RC flying as a hobby.

If a drone gets UNDER the rotor disk, sweet, it gets blown into oblivion. But thats only one of three possible scenarios.
If it gets ABOVE or LATERALLY CLOSE to the disk, it could either be sucked downwards into the rotor disk, or, as Splab correctly said, be pulled into the tip vortex ring, which would see the drone be lifted over and into the disk. See this diagram for a quick look at the aerodynamics at play.

What different kinds of books are in the New Testament? When, how, and why were they written? And why did some books, and not others, come to be collected into what Christians came to consider the canon of scripture that would define their belief for all time? With these 12 lectures, get a fast-moving yet thorough introduction to these and other key issues in the development of Christianity. Designed to deepen the understanding of both Christians and non-Christians alike, this lecture series takes as its perspective the historical, rather than the theological, issues behind the development of the Bible. And it's an illuminating perspective, indeed, ranging across issues of language, oral history, the physical limitations of spreading the written word at a time when the printing press lay far in the future, and, of course, the theological forces that were shaping Christianity, molding a commonly accepted canon from the various expressions of the faith spreading across the ancient world. Professor Ehrman recreates the context of the times in which the canon was being assembled so that you can understand what the message of each written work would have meant to ancient Christians. You'll come to see how the diverse books of the New Testament were gathered together into the form we now know, whether it's the four canonical Gospels (whose authorship was only attributed by later Christians), the book of Acts, the 21 Epistles, or the book of Revelation (sometimes called the Apocalypse of John).
These lectures are a compelling introduction not only to the development of the Christian canon, but to all of the forces that would play a role in early Christian history.

"Very informative"
I disagree a bit with the previous reviewer in that although there are iTunes U courses that are excellent, Prof. Ehrman is the top of his field. I very much enjoyed the lecture series, Prof. Ehrman is an excellent lecturer and presents information in a clear and interesting way. I enjoyed this course more than the books, but I prefer to hear history and science in lecture form.
I highly recommend this lecture series if you are interested in the subject. I feel prof. Ehrman presents the subject in a fair and objective light, he is only presenting his academic studies and is not teaching a sermon or ranting against religion.
Thank you
"Objective Historical lecture on the New Testament"
A scholarly and historical (not devotional) perspective on how the New testament came to exist in its present form. The course is a lecture series given by premier Bible Scholar Bartrand Ehrman. If you're looking for an objective view into the history of the Bible and Christianity, I highly recommend this series.
"Overlap beware"
This book has too much overlap with other courses by this same lecturer. If you've already heard the others, it's not as good as his lectures on the early Christian church and the ones on the controversies of the Bible. I was hoping for new or more information than what I got in the other lectures.That being said, as a whole, good information. Ehrman is a good lecturer.
"Interesting, but not conclusive"
I liked the historical context of the lectures and how they detailed the writing of the books in the New Testament.
What I didn't like was that there seemed to be an undertone of doubt about the validity of any of the books. Prof. Ehrman began the lectures by stating that any two texts that were virtually identical in subject, writing style, or account could almost certainly be considered copies of eachother. (he went into a very convincing example in his lecture) He references several corresponding accounts in the gospels that he supposes had to be copied from other resources. Later, though, Ehrman references discrepancies in accounts of the same events in different gospels and uses this as reason to doubt the validity of scripture. I think a reasonable doubt is healthy when digesting any information, but you can't have it both ways. Ehrman is suggesting that similarities in scripture are reason to doubt their validity, and again later suggesting that discrepancies are reason to discredit.
These lectures are written from a historical perspective, not a theologic one. That said, it still seems that the goal of the lectures isn't only to educate about the writing, assembly, and preservation of the New Testament.
Knowledgable, Informative, Biased
I would like to see a point by point rebuttal from a biblical historical perspective. After independently researching many points made in the lectures and finding that they weren't entirely based in fact, I would love to listen to lectures that are based on biblical explanations.
"Good primer to biblical history."
This was a great listen, and Beat Ehrman is respected as a leading expert on biblical history. Be aware, though, that this is much more if an introduction to the topic. I'd prefer a course that was twice as long and twice as in-depth.
"Again Wow"
I I found this to be and easy listen, and just a great book overall
"Great NT overview"
Bart D. Ehrman is an interesting author and speaker. He talks from another perspective (agnostic) than others which makes it interesting.
The audiobook about Paul the apostle is also great and is in the same series.
It's just as good as his other performances.
"Good but no better than FREE iTunes U courses!"
Prof. Ehrman is a respected scholar, and the lectures are very interesting. Only thing is, iTunes U has very similar material for free. Right now I'm listening to a course on the NT from Yale University. Audible / Amazon should give these away or at least dramatically reduce the prices.
Go to iTunes U and get lots of great courses for nothing!
I have avoided more of these courses, not because of the wonderful information contained within, but that accursed APPLAUSE at the end of each lecture. Occasionally, I cruise through the titles, almost give in and buy another one...then I remember how painful it was to dread the end of a lecture and have to listen to the clapping.
Some of the anthers I enjoy are Billy Graham, John Grisham, James Herriot.
"Beware, the author IS NOT A BELIVER IN JESUS"
Atheists would probably enjoy the author's sarcasm. Example, as a proposed joke the author puts a spin on to a saying of The Lord' s. "I am Divine and you are the branches" whereas the true reading is "I am The vine and you are the branches". Total unneeded sarcasm !!! This type of sarcasm is not flattering and runs somewhat rampart throughout. The author has potential to make the new Christian listener start to doubt. It should be noted that the author/narrator attended Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, as well as simular places of academia. From my understanding he was once a "believer" but now calls himself an agnostic, but for all practical purposes he is probably closer to being an atheist. My understanding is that he us married to a true BELIVER in Christ. Please pray for her as well as the author Mr. Bart Ehrman.
I would not consider listening to an other titles by Bart Erhman, not unless he becomes a true follower of Christ.
For the most part the narration was ok, it was the content that had the issues.
While initially, Bart Erhman's narration enlightened my mind as to how old history such as the Bible (in a physical sense) came about. It leaves a very deep void, the faith component.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

Learn more about the new state-of-the-art home for Lesley's College of Art and Design
Friday, May 10, 2013
Today, Lesley is building the Lesley University Arts Center—the new home of the College of Art and Design—to advance engagement with the arts across the university, throughout the surrounding community, and everywhere our graduates pursue their professions.
The Arts Center, to be located on Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge's Porter Square, will double the College of Art and Design's current space, and is designed to be a nexus of creative thought and energy by providing state-of-the-art facilities for use by the arts programs in all of Lesley's schools. This major investment in the arts will not only benefit students and faculty, but also students and faculty across the university in programs like expressive therapies and creative arts.
Activity is already under way at the site. With construction expected to be completed by the end of 2014, we will embark on the spring 2015 semester, which begins in January 2015, in the new building—less than two years from now. The completion of the Arts Center will realize the College of Art and Design's long-awaited move from Boston's Kenmore Square to Lesley's Porter Campus.
The unique design of the new Arts Center marries history with contemporary design through construction of the new four-story building connected by a dramatic, glass-walled commons to the historic, former North Prospect Church.
The new Arts Center will contain classrooms, studios, digital and other laboratories, faculty offices, and flexible spaces for collaborative work. The ground floor will feature art exhibition spaces that invite the public in while enlivening the streetscape.
The Arts Commons Connector is a three-story glass arts commons space that will connect the new building with the historic church. The commons, opening onto a plaza on Massachusetts Avenue, serves as the entrance to the Arts Center, welcoming students, faculty and visitors into the complex.
The historic, former North Prospect Church is being relocated and restored to house the arts library and art-making studios.
The first phase of the Arts Center complex, housed in Lesley's University Hall on Massachusetts Avenue, is already completed and features drawing classrooms, critique rooms, space for the MFA in Photography Program, and professional-rate studios for seniors in all majors.
The Arts Center will expand the long tradition of offering robust events and activities to the Lesley community, including exhibitions, visiting artist lectures, conferences and symposia.
Please continue to follow project updates on the construction website: www.lesley.edu/artsconstruction.

Reflections on the Toronto AIDS Conference.
At the African Union summit on Aids, TB and Malaria held in Abuja in May 2006, African leaders committed themselves to reaching the HIV and Aids treatment and prevention needs of all Africans by 2010. Yet, both African governments and the international community have not taken the necessary steps towards fulfilling these commitments.
Can Africa reach its targets?
"Nothing will be delivered until the global community supports the realisation of these ambitious but realistic targets by Africa," said Sisonke Msimang, a representative of the African Civil Society Coalition on HIV and Aids, and head of HIV/Aids programmes at the Open Society Initiative for Southern Africa. These targets include:
* Reducing HIV prevalence in young people between 15 and 24 years, by at least 25% in ALL African countries;
* Protecting and supporting in 2010, 5 million children orphaned by Aids and ensuring that 80% of orphans and vulnerable children have access to basic services;
* Providing access for at least 80% of pregnant women to Prevention of Mother-To-Child Transmission (PMTCT), and treatment for HIV-positive women and children;
* Providing treatment, care and support for at least 80% of those in need, particularly children.
Reporting back to Namibia
Kanjoo Mbaindjikua of Lironga Eparu, Namibia's organisation of people living with HIV and Aids, was one of the civil society representatives in Toronto. Reporting back on the conference at one of the monthly meetings on HIV and Aids organised by IBIS, she said there was a notable absence of high profile political leadership, indicating a lack of political will from governments to seriously address the pandemic.
Kanjoo noted that the women's movement was prominent--with passionate speeches about women's rights, and a women's march organised by the International Community of Women Living with Aids together with the World Young Women's Christian Association. However, many of these activities took place in the Global Village, where non-governmental organisations held lively events with representatives from all over the world. "We made a lot of noise about African women's issues in the Global Village, but African women were not strongly visible in the conference itself," said Kanjoo.
As one of her main aims in travelling to Toronto had been networking, Kanjoo spent most of her time in the Women's Networking Zone. "This was very productive," she reported. "For example, we made a connection with male activists from Lesotho who informed us that women living with HIV and Aids were still reluctant to disclose their status publicly in their country because of the stigma. We were able to exchange information and ideas with activists and collect materials from many other countries."
Kanjoo also used the space to launch her publication on young women's leadership that she developed while working in Geneva in 2005 as an intern with the World YWCA on its HIV/Aids and Young Women's Project. She plans to launch this in Namibia soon.
She said that while Namibia was acknowledged as meeting its set target for making anti-retroviral treatment available in hospitals across the county, the Namibian delegation was not well-prepared to showcase its work, unlike other African countries that presented informative displays.
Jennifer Gatsi of Parliamentarians for Women's Health also participated in the report back session held by IBIS. She expressed concern that there was no monitoring of Namibia's treatment roll out "to see what we area actually achieving," and said that her organisation has embarked on a community assessment programme. But her main concern was the large amount of money spent on the Toronto conference itself. "Will it make an impact?" she asked. "Would these funds not have been better spent in supporting people living with HIV and Aids in their daily struggle for survival?"

Video of TMZ Mistaking Greg Oden for Lebron James…CLASSIC
by Robert Littal | Posted on Tuesday, June 21st, 2011
I definitely can see how this could happen, can't you?
It is quite possible that Oden is Lebron's biological father. They both have that accelerated growth gene that makes them look 20 years older than they actually are.
I think Oden has already has live two or three lifetimes in that body.Powered by Sidelines

Pros: Doesn't kink or hold its curl once out of the box. Strands are all well colored and easy to identify.
Pros: This is great cable, the jacket cracks nicely with a soft scoring, the conductor colors are nice and bold making it easy to see and terminate in a darker location... And the conductors flatten out nice for RJ plugs... And finally, the box is STURDY! And it pulls perfect!
Cons: No Cons at all! At roughly $60 per 1000ft... And quality to boot! C'mon!!!
Pros: Great price, works great! Used it for a balun, internet connection, IR leads... fantastic!
Pros: Good quality cable. I was worried because of the price with what I would end up with but after running a few 100 feet of it I was very impressed.
Cons: it doesn't terminate itself :-) No real cons, good product!
Pros: Great product quality. Pulls straight from the box, no dealing with reels of cable. Foot markings make it easy to know what to charge clients and/or make sure they get the actual length they need. Jacket is high quality, unlike some of the stuff they carried at Menards (don't laugh, I needed cable quickly).
Cons: I don't like the string in the cable.
The white + color wires seem to be colored with a straight line, rather than the color twisting around the wire. You have to move the wire around to see if it is a colored wire or a color + white wire.
Other Comments: Great quality, fast shipping, and the shipping is not over priced like with some dealers.

Cats love it
posted 7 years ago
My cats love this. They ocassionally get wet food when it has been a rough day for them (after going to the vet or being chased by a dog). I hate messing with cans so this is great for me. There is not much mess and the cats eat it quickly so it must taste good.
Pros: Easy to open pouches
Cons: odor can be intense

The price is good at about $3.99 for a 12 pack.
My kitties love this stuff. I bought another brand (meow mix pouches) and they hated it. The consistency was nothing compared to the wiskas. These are beefy chunks with gravy.
Pros: My Cats LOVE it
Cons: None!

Vignette・photo effects・ad-free
100,000 - 500,000 downloads
- Soft focus
- Weird UI
+ By Weavr Studios
"The photo editor that artists use"
Reviewed by Peter Warrior / Jun 07, 2011
High quality filters and frames.
It's increasingly difficult to pick just one photo editing application. Of course, we have three or four favorites and Vignette may indeed be one of them. It has not only a lot of frames, but also a lot of effects. Its star option is called 'soft focus': it focuses the vanishing point while blurring the rest, obtaining rather acceptable artistic results.
There are also the tilt-shift and lomo filters; the polaroid frames and the vintage styles. Well, as you can see, it does everything it should. Don't forget that Vignette is one of the most downloaded photo editing tools so it must have something special to deserve such honor.
This is the complete Vignette version so there isn't a picture size limit. If you want to try it out before buying it, check the demo out. The user interface is somewhat clumsy: when you select an option there isn't any confirmation and you have to get back to check the changes you have just made.
Use more than 70 customisable filters and 50 frames in any combination to create many photo effects. Vignette is also a full-featured camera application, featuring digital zoom, time-lapse, self-timer and more.
Examples: http://vignette.neilandtheresa.co.uk/filter-examples
Please note we can provide support in English only.
• Retro/vintage styles
• LOMO/Diana/Holga toy camera styles

• NEW Shuffle random effects
• NEW Move to crop
• Take pictures at your camera's full resolution, even with effect
• Use the flash and front-facing cameras on most devices
• Self-timer, time-lapse and steady-shot modes
• Digital 10× zoom
• 21× optical zoom on Samsung Galaxy Camera EK-GC100
• Store location data in pictures (geotag)

• Time- and date-stamp pictures with adjustable size, colour and format
• Rule-of-thirds and golden ratio composition guides
• Optimised for taking pictures underwater
• Share pictures via third-party apps
Vignette does not require an internet connection to process pictures like some apps, and does not upload your pictures to a central server like Instagram. Your pictures do not leave your device until you choose to share them.

Best app on my first HTC hero running android 1.2 then they looked like the towel was tossed however glad you guys are back. I paid for it back in the free days so you know it's good.
LG Volt - no option in save settings to out photos on sd card. Loved this app on other phones, hope this is fixed eventually. Until then I won't use and can't recommend.
Was happy that for a long time that it wasn't available to iPhone users. Been using it for a few years now but in the last week it crashes CONSTANTLY. Was fine, now it's not. :(
Not too many options, precisely right for my old galaxy tab 7.0
Keep up the best devs
I've used this app since 2010. Wonderful settings and options. Always produces beautiful, artistic pictures. LOVE the macro setting; the best I've seen!
Unfortunately vignette has stopped is the sign that keeps flashing across my screen even when I close the app, it is also not processing pictures. I have tried reinstalling the app several times and also tried reporting the problem but still nothing. LG G3

What does Vow Muse do?
Vow Muse helps with all types of writing, mainly for weddings and events. Wedding vows, best man speeches and website text are some examples of what Vow Muse specializes in.
How much does a Vow Muse consultation cost?
The prices for our consultations vary based on a variety of factors. We price each project individually to account for this uncertainty. Generally, a vow or speech consultation where you receive approximately 400 words of text and two revisions is approximately $240. Package deals can be arranged for more than one service for the same event.
Why would I ask someone else write my wedding vows for me? Isn't that cheating?
No way! When you plan a wedding or event, you seek assistance from a variety of consultants: florists, seamstresses, caterers, planners. Why? Because these people are experts who know how to make each piece of your wedding the very best it can be. That's what Vow Muse does. Not everyone has the time, ability or desire to write their own wedding vows, ceremony or website. Vow Muse can work with each person to make the writing for their event as perfect as it should be.
How can you write something that sounds like I wrote it?
Understanding your intentions, voice and feelings is what we do best. We start out each consultation with a meeting to find out exactly what you're trying to say and why. We like to meet in person or over the phone, if possible, to get a first hand feel for your individual views, speech patterns and ideals in addition to just learning about the nuts and bolts of your project.
What if you don't get it right and what you write just isn't me?
That's what revisions are for! While we make every effort to get it right the first time around, sometimes it just isn't possible. We offer two revisions on every project so that we can work with your feedback to make everything just right.
Maybe you weren't sure exactly what you wanted or perhaps once you read what you asked for you realize that you'd really like a different spin on what's being said. Writing is an iterative process and we encourage full involvement from our clients to make sure that the product you receive is absolutely perfect.
Wait a minute, do I have to do a lot of work? I thought that's why I hired you guys?
That is why you hired us. While it's true that the more you give us, the bigger window we have into your needs, we don't require any writing or even any articulated feedback to do our jobs. We can revise your project with responses like, "this should sound more formal" or "can we add something about my cat?". We ask the questions, you answer honestly; we give you a draft, you tell us what you think. We give you the perfect words.
I'm already spending so much on my wedding. Can I really afford a Muse?
Your budget is always up to you, of course, but this is why we think that spending an extra few hundred dollars on the words of your wedding is even more important than the catering:
- Have you ever seen a bad best man speech? How about cheesy wedding vows? One bad part of your wedding can be the most memorable part. Make sure you and your guests remember your wedding just the way you want them to.
- Most people employ a videographer for their wedding nowadays. Vow Muse will make sure that every time you watch the DVD of your special day you enjoy the inspirational words of your loved ones all over again.
- In the scheme of a wedding budget, which can often be over $10,000 even for a smaller wedding, the cost of a Vow Muse consultation is a small price to pay to ensure that everyone sounds as good as they look on your special day.
Will you guys come to me for the consultation?
That depends where you are. We are based in the East San Francisco Bay Area and are happy to meet you almost anywhere in the area.
Do you service clients outside the San Francisco area?
Absolutely! While we prefer to meet in person, we can do our work just as well with a phone meeting, Skype chat or email consultation. We service clients nationally.
How do I contact you guys?
Visit our website (www.vowmuse.com) or email us anytime at muse {at} vowmuse.com

Tennis may lose slot in SEA Games
LAPU LAPU CITY—Philippine tennis is hoping for the best but is prepared for the worst regarding the fate of the sport in the Myanmar Southeast Asian Games this December.
Philippine Tennis Association secretary general Romeo Magat yesterday said the Philippine Olympic Committee has already confirmed that tennis is among the Olympic sports that will be scrapped from the SEA Games calendar in favor of sports that are unheard of and largely not played in the region.
"This is bad news for us," said Magat quoting POC secretary general Steve Hontiveros who arrived Wednesday from the SEA Games Federation in Myanmar.
Hontiveros confirmed the news but refused to say the other sports that won't be played. POC vice president Joey Romasanta can't be reached for comment.
"That's all we were talking about the whole morning," said Treat Huey, who won the country's lone gold medal in the 2011 edition along with Denise Dy in the mixed doubles.
Huey said if that happens, they will just concentrate on the Davis Cup, where the country is working on going back to Group 1 competitions. The PH Cuppers are to start their tie here against Syria today.

Whiskey or wine... Your place or mine
My greatest passion is to travel and experience different cultures domestic and international. I have great joy in experiencing new ways of life. It reminds me of how lucky we really have it here and humbles me as a man. My greatest experience was touring Egypt. The only word to describe is surreal. A close second would have been my 4 day hike on the Inca Trail through the Andes mountains to Machu Picchu. I would love to find a partner that enjoys traveling and experiencing different cultures and lifestyles the way I do. I am down to get up and go anywhere at the drop of a dime. A goal of mine is to bring in the New Year in another country or exotic destination. There is something about counting down the seconds to the next year that gives me a sense of accomplishment in my life and would love to have a partner by my side that means the world to me and I to hers to share that feeling. I recently moved here from Miami, but I am originally from Chicago. This place is change I needed mentally, physically and spiritually at this stage in my life. I love nature and the outdoors. Camping and hiking are two of my favorite things to do. I do like to pamper myself at a resort every once in awhile, but crave the sense of adventure. I would prefer camping or road tripping on the weekend any day over going to a bar or club. I would love a partner that feels the same in that aspect of life as well. I hope you enjoyed my profile. I am truly looking forward to meeting my match. Take care

Pearl Jam, RHCP and Metallica are my three favorite bands, but I love all music it just depends on the mood or environment. I can live on seafood everyday, but tend to crave a good steak every once in awhile. I love a great Pinot Noir and Cabernet
During the week, my fun is exerting energy at the gym after work. On the weekends, I am either travelling or having get togethers at my house. I just moved here in Dec and just completed my sanctuary which I love to relax or have company over

The car was stolen from the victim of a shooting at about 3 a.m. Saturday in the 2200 block of Liberty Heights Ave., near the Mondawmin shopping center, according to Detective Jeremy Silbert, a city police spokesman.
The officer made a U-turn, but the vehicle sped away, he said. A few minutes later, police received a report of a crash near the intersection of Belle and Ferndale avenues involving the same car.
The car had hit a van and a parked vehicle, the detective said. The driver of the van was thrown from the vehicle and taken to a local hospital in serious condition, where he later died.
Police have taken a man into custody and he is considered a person of interest, Silbert said, but no formal charges have been filed.

Originally written on Fox Soccer | Last updated 11/20/14
Fulham midfielder Alexander Kacaniklic insists there is no problem between Dimitar Berbatov and his team-mates in the wake of his T-shirt controversy. Berbatov risked the wrath of his colleagues when he revealed a 'Keep Calm And Pass Me The Ball' message after scoring against Southampton on Boxing Day. Reports suggested several players were unhappy with Berbatov's attitude, but Kacaniklic claims there is no dressing room unrest surrounding the Bulgarian. "It wasn't a problem," Kacaniklic said of the T-shirt incident. "He has been at top clubs in England and played at international level too. You always learn from him in training and look at him in games. "He is a great player - he should play every week at any team he is with. "When he plays like that, he is one of the best players in the league, definitely. Not many players are better than him."

Elementary Teaching
The curriculum of the Elementary Teaching concentration is designed to equip future teachers with skills and knowledge they will need to become effective teachers and leaders in the field of education.
Elementary Teaching Curriculum
MS_ED 402 Social Contexts of Education
This course focuses on the social and contextual influences of education, from a learning, teaching, research and policy perspective. We will examine the role or race, ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality and identity in the ways individuals and groups influence and are influenced by our education system. In this class you will be asked to deeply evaluate your own beliefs, thoughts and assumptions about the influence of these socio-cultural factors and consider their implications for your own professional and personal development.
MS_ED 403 Childhood and Early Adolescent Development
This course focuses on the very center of the teacher's work – the child – and provides students with a variety of lenses through which they can look at the children they are currently working with and those they will encounter in their future lives as teachers. We will introduce approaches to observing children for different purposes; the prominent (and sometimes contradictory) theories of learning and child development; what we know about motivation and engagement and its implications for the classroom; and the socio-cultural contexts which influence both student performance and the way we look at children.
MS_ED 406 Research and Analysis in Teaching and Learning I: Discussion and Question Development
This course aims to help students meet three goals that will advance the progress of the Master's Project and develop skills of questioning and discussion that are useful in many teaching-learning contexts. The three goals include the formation of a question that the Master's Project will address, a description of the rationale for the question and the start of a literature review on the topic.
MS_ED 407 Research and Analysis in Teaching and Learning II: Literature Review and Methodology
This course is a forum in which to investigate the paradigms and approaches to educational research that participants can utilize in their Master's Projects. Participants discuss and refine their research questions and examine methods of data collection within the framework of research plans they design for their projects. Teacher research and action research are particularly emphasized for practitioner researchers. Participants investigate criteria used to evaluate research relevant to education and experience peer review of their own research.
MS_ED 408 Research and Analysis in Teaching and Learning III: Analysis, Interpretation and Dissemination
This course helps course participants refine the reflective skills required of educators in complex social institutions such as schools, businesses and nonprofit organizations and develop effective problem-identification and -solving approaches. Intensive analysis and discussion of questions encountered in elementary and secondary schools, administrative, higher education and corporate settings. Students present their Master's Projects in this course.
MS_ED 423 Foundations of Reading and Language Acquisition: Elementary Teaching
This course is organized to provide preservice and inservice teachers with the professional background to provide literacy instruction to diverse learners in K-8 school settings. It moves from knowledge and belief about reading and language to the applications of organizing and managing creative and effective literacy classroom practices. In the process, students shall examine, evaluate and reflect upon their beliefs about reading and the belief system of others about reading. We focus upon balanced literacy instruction and multiple methods to meet the literacy needs of students in a variety of learning settings. We utilize metacognitive strategies related to readings, projects and all interactions. We believe reading and learning are lifelong processes.
MS_ED 425 Foundations of Writing Processes: Elementary Teaching
This course presents current theory and practice related to writing processes, with emphasis on personal writing experiences, including topic selection, drafting, conferencing, revising, editing and publishing. Other topics include evaluation, writing in various genres, motivating students to write and management of writing workshops.
MS_ED 426 Mathematics in Elementary School from an Advanced Perspective
This course provides an overview of mathematics topics taught in elementary and middle school. This course will model and examine an investigative approach to elementary mathematics instruction, which is purposeful, inquiry-based and meaningful, and which is integrated across math topics and with other content areas. The primary goal of this course is to develop the ability to design and implement mathematics instruction that is conceptually based, reflective and mathematically significant. We will spend time reading about, discussing and reflecting on mathematics content and mathematics teaching in this course.
MS_ED 427 Educating Exceptional Children
Exceptional children have unique characteristics – physiological, intellectual and social-emotional. This course examines the unique characteristics of exceptional children – physiological, intellectual and social-emotional, along with etiological factors. The course also examines trends in legislation and educational programming and approaches to instruction for students with disabilities.
MS_ED 453 Methods and Techniques of Teaching: Elementary
This course strives to introduce candidates to a variety of teaching and learning strategies that can be utilized in elementary and middle school settings for instruction in Science and Social Studies. Emphasis is placed on application of these strategies in an interdisciplinary format.
MS_ED 477 Practicum Seminar: Elementary Teaching
The teaching practicum encompasses a 10-week period of part-time experience under the direction of two classroom mentors. It is performed two different sites – urban and suburban, is organized in conjunction with a subject-specific methods tutorial, and is accompanied by a weekly practicum seminar. The seminar portion of the course is designed to enrich the practicum/observation experience for elementary teaching candidates. Through whole class and small group discussion, course participants will have opportunities to share their observations, questions and reflections. Each week various topics of teaching and learning will be addressed which will help prepare course participants for student teaching.
MS_ED 487 Student Teaching Seminar: Elementary (2 credits)
Student teaching helps teacher candidates develop skills essential for successful professional educators, including the use of theoretical knowledge to inform professional practice and the cultivation of questions rooted in practice to illuminate the meaning of theory. The seminar portion of the course is designed to enrich the student teaching experience for elementary candidates through whole class and small group discussions. Readings, assignments and guest speakers will enrich the course and provide participants with opportunities for reflection, sharing and problem solving of issues encountered in the classroom. The course is consistent with the Illinois Professional Teaching Standards and Northwestern University's Conceptual Framework.
Graduate-Level Elective
All candidates take two graduate-level electives. MS_ED 413 is recommended, unless the candidate is pursuing a middle school endorsement, in which case MS_ED 422 and MS_ED 428 are required. Other options include MS_ED 435 New Approaches to Science Teaching, MS_ED 436 Design of Learning Environments for Teachers, and MS_ED 438 Teaching with Technology.
MS_ED 413 Problems in the Philosophy of Education (recommended elective)
This course explores classical and modern philosophies of education using text interpretation, analysis of ideas and argument construction. Philosophies are applied to educational issues. Students develop their own philosophy of education in the course. Course participants prepare for and lead discussion about philosophical works.
MS_ED 422 Teaching Reading in the Content Area (For Middle School Endorsement only)
This course is designed to help middle school and high school teachers develop an understanding of specific strategies that readers must use to achieve deep comprehension of content material. We will explore cognitive foundations of reading comprehension and their influence on methods of instruction and assessment, as well as the interrelationships among reading processes and language learning. Theory and practice relationships will be explored as students experience and learn about: text structure, use of background knowledge, comprehension connections, inferencing, strategies for active engagement, socio-cultural influences on reading, reading/writing relationships, text sets and assessment of content reading. As a methods course, we will also discuss the elements of good teaching, the theory and history of teaching, curriculum design, instructional methods and the developmental needs of adolescents.
MS_ED 428 Dynamics of Middle School Curriculum (For Middle School Endorsement only)
The objective of this course is for students to understand and explore the dynamic environment of middle schools and young adolescents, and to consider the impact of middle school principles, structures and practices on classroom learning and instruction. Students will examine the unique characteristics of middle school learning and the educational needs of young adolescent learners, and they will compare and contrast a variety of middle school models, including policy statements, visions and reform proposals.
Students are required to complete 15 graduate courses to complete the master's degree. Some students may also need to take some additional undergraduate classes to fulfill Illinois State Board of Education requirements for licensure (also called deficiency courses – for more information see the
certification page
). The master's degree program can be completed in as little as one year full-time or two to three years part-time. Most classes meet in the evenings.

NEW YORK — Kansas State and Oregon are now on course to play for the BCS national championship.
After Alabama was upset by Texas A&M, the new BCS standings have the Wildcats (.9674) first and the Ducks (.9497) second.
Notre Dame (.9396) is third, not too far behind, but most likely in need of a loss by Oregon or Kansas State to reach the title game on Jan. 7 in Miami.
These teams are in their order and the only way that order changes is if somebody gets beat, said Jerry Palm, of CBS Sports and collegebcs.com.
As for Alabama's run at three championships in four seasons, and the Southeastern Conference's string of six straight BCS titles, both are in peril.
Five SEC teams follow Alabama in the standings: Georgia, Florida, LSU, Texas A&M and South Carolina. But it will take a couple of upsets to give the SEC champion a shot to reach the BCS title game.
Kansas State is second in both BCS polls — the coaches' and Harris — and in the computer rankings. The Wildcats have two games left, at Baylor on Saturday and home against Texas on Dec. 1, the day of most of the conference championship games.
Oregon is first in the both polls and fourth in the computer ratings. The Ducks have two more regular-season games left, against Stanford on Saturday and the next week at Oregon State. They can clinch the Pac-12 North and a spot in the conference title game with a win against Stanford. If they get there, the Ducks would play either UCLA or Southern California in the league title game.
The Fighting Irish are third in the polls and first in the computer ratings.
Notre Dame is not going to jump (Oregon and Kansas State) without their help, Palm said. They're way too far behind in the polls. The voters are not on board with Notre Dame.

Maybank ATR meets bourse's public float rule
popular .
Financial services group Maybank ATR Kim Eng Financial Corp. (MATRKE) has increased its public ownership to 10.25 percent from 0.89 percent to comply with the 10-percent minimum public float requirement of the Philippine Stock Exchange.
MATRKE disclosed on Thursday that key shareholders had placed out 100 million shares at P4.38 per share to foreign firms. The equity deal was priced at the same level at which the controlling shareholder, Maybank Kim Eng Holdings Ltd., paid the minority shareholders in a tender offer in November 2011.
Maybank Kim Eng sold 50 million of its common shares in the local company to Hong Kong firm Wah Hong Investment Ltd. Another 50 million of issued and outstanding common shares in MATRKE were sold to Lotus Asset Management (BVI) Ltd., a British Virgin Island registered firm.
The PSE requires a public float of at least 10 percent for companies to remain listed to ensure sufficient liquidity in the stock market.
