I wake up, brush my teeth, check e-mail, check my Oakland City Teacher Corps status viewer, check EdJoin, then check the OUSD page.
I have been guaranteed a job through Oakland City Teacher Corps (OCTC), but I have little idea where that job will be. The search is an anxious one. I am eager to start writing lesson plans, meeting students' parents/guardians, memorizing the relevant standards, and working with my principal to cram as many of my beloved technical toys in my classroom as possible.
So far, I've had a few moments when I've eagerly called my fiancee into the room — invitations to apply for one post or another. I've been told that teachers in my content area, social studies, are often hired early in the process as to allow the administration to take its time in finding the "important teachers" (i.e. math). Just a few days ago I had a phone interview. It was awkward as I could not gauge my reception with the interviewers. I wish I could afford to move to Oakland earlier so I wouldn't have to conduct my search from Cleveland, Ohio.
While I wait for lady luck, I'm reading the posts and the fascinating debates on The Education Report (what a community here!). The recent discussion of salary cuts and the possibility of an impasse with the union negotiations has me reeling a bit. It's such a heavy issue. The financial restraints that have caused a community to shortchange its students is wretched. The system cries out for innovation on a fundamental level. But to be honest, I'm mostly thinking about whether or not I'll be able to make my student loan payments.

The 10 Most Agonizing Steelers Losses of the Decade
10. The Kris Brown Game (2001)
When watching Kris Brown shank two potential game-tying field goals this season with the Texans, all I can do is wrap myself in a warm Snuggie of schadenfreude. Brown was a disaster with the Steelers and the 2001 home game against Baltimore typified the whole mess. He missed FOUR FIELD GOALS in what wound up being a 13-10 Ravens victory. The Steelers could have had two three-game sweeps of Baltimore this decade were it not for this slapdick.
9. The Tommy Maddox Gets His Home Vandalized Game (2005)
Tommy Maddox's window of competence for the Steelers was a very, very narrow one. He had a pretty good year in 2002, then proceeded to nosedive right back into the shittiness that got him out of the league his first go-round. The 2005 overtime loss to the Jaguars was the absolute worst - he finished 11 for 28 with three interceptions and a lost fumble and that doesn't even begin to describe how utterly horrible he was. Considering how poorly Maddox played, the fact that Pittsburgh even forced OT against a team that ended up finishing 12-4 that year is a testament to how good that '05 Steelers team was. In overtime, Pittsburgh was even in position to win, with the ball well into Jags territory when Maddox dropped a snap that Jacksonville recovered. Pittsburgh forced another punt, so Tommy decided to speed up the process by throwing a pick-six to end the game. I can't endorse how some Steelers fans reacted to the loss, but I certainly understood their frustration.
8. The Running into the Kicker Game (2002)
What's so funny about the haters who swear that the NFL tries to make the Steelers win or that the referees are always on their side is that the fact that Pittsburgh has suffered two playoff losses this decade in which questionable calls (or non-calls) went against them at critical moments, and almost a third with the overturned Polamalu interception against the Colts in 2005. Joe Nedney missed a 31-yard gimme kick in overtime but the refs gave him a second chance after flagging Dewayne Washington for a ticky-tack running into the kicker penalty. Still, the Steelers had a three-point lead late in the 4th and they couldn't hold it. This time a break went against us. We're not crying conspiracy about it.
7. The Losing to a Goddamn Expansion Team Game (2002)
One reason that Titans playoff loss doesn't sting so much is because that 2002 Steelers was a bit of a maddening conundrum. Exhibit A: THEY LOST TO A TEXANS TEAM IN THEIR FIRST SEASON IN THE LEAGUE! WITH DAVID CARR STARTING! THE GAME WASN'T EVEN CLOSE - THEY LOST 24-6! GGGGAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!
6. The Perils of Starting After a Concussion Game (2006)
And this, besides the NFL's efforts to bolster awareness of the effects of head injuries, is why Ben Roethlisberger did not start against the Ravens in Baltimore. A week removed from a concussion suffered against the Falcons, Big Ben threw for 300 yards. He also threw two pick-sixes, including one in the redzone that went back 100 yards for a score the other way. Yes, the Steelers lost despite the fact that Oakland had 98 yards of total offense. Ninety eight. On a personal note, this game was an extra slap to me because I ran the Marine Corps Marathon that morning and still went out to the bar even though my legs were killing me. And this was my reward. Just a further reminder that running is for suckers.
5. The Game Ravens Fans Think About While Masturbating (2006)
How many Ravens fan sites use this picture or some other shot of Ben getting hit in '06 in every other post? You got it - ALL OF THEM! Admittedly, this is one of the very few times the Ravens lived up to their extensive trash talk. They did for once punish the Steelers completely. In winning 27-0, they sacked Roethlisberger nine times and knocked him out of the game. The Ravens handed the Steelers another big loss later in the season in Pittsburgh, but this was the one that extinguished any lingering hopes that the Steelers would turn around what was a disappointing '06 campaign.
4. The Last Game (2009)
Hey, remember that game from last Thursday? I wish I didn't. You might argue that this one is rated a little high, but then I can't recall a game where the Steelers looked more complacent. Bruce Arians gameplan of throwing out of four and five receiver sets despite 30 mph winds was textbook retardery. Dick LeBeau gets some blame too. Everyone in the stadium knew what Josh Cribbs would be doing in this game. And the Steelers just laid down for it. Disgusting.
3. Not The Actual Choke Game (2004)
Very cute, Masshole. At least the Steelers didn't blow a perfect season.
The 2004 AFC Championship wasn't a choke by the Steelers. They did host the game and had a superior regular season record to the Patriots, though only 15-1 to 14-2. At the same time, the Patriots were the defending champs with a decorated veteran QB under center, while the Steelers had a rookie QB, albeit one who was having the best rookie season by a QB ever. Still, Big Ben showed his age like all rookies do in the postseason. The Steelers were extremely fortunate to have gotten by the Jets the previous week. It stands to reason that you can't hide your quarterback in the postseason, and the Steelers couldn't in this game. Big Ben didn't play well, though the team deserves credit for rallying to make it interesting in the second half, even if Cowher played it far too conservative by kicking an extra point late rather than going for two.
2. The Game That Should Have Gotten Bruce Arians Fired (2007)
Mike Pereira, the NFL's head of officiating, kindly informed the Steelers after this game that the refs neglected to call a holding penalty on James Harrison on a deciding 4th and 2 run by David Garrard. But Steelers fans aren't Ravens fans. The refs didn't screw us. The Steelers had every opportunity to put away this game after coming back from an 18-point 4th quarter deficit to regain the lead. Facing a 3rd and 6, when a first down ices the game for Pittsburgh, Bruce Arians dials up a designed quarterback rollout run by Ben Roethlisberger. Now, Big Ben is fairly nifty in the pocket. He can break free from some pass rushers. But he's not Vince Young. Suffice it to say, the moronic playcall didn't work. Even more tragically, Arians kept his job.
1. The Actual Choke Game (2001)
The special teams struggles of this season harken back to what was a staple of the Bill Cowher era. In two-thirds of the game, the 2001 Steelers were a better team than the eventual champion Patriots. Ah, but they they found that Achilles heel and exploited it for two special teams touchdowns, one a long punt return by Troy Brown, another a blocked field goal by previously mentioned failure Kris Brown that was returned for a score. The Steelers knocked Tom Brady out of the game and useless robot Drew Bledose came in to finish the job. That's how bad it was. And it wouldn't be a Kordell Stewart AFC Championship Game if he didn't throw two backbreaking interceptions in the 4th quarter when the team had a chance to tie the game.
Dishonorable mentions:
-- Pretty much the entire '03 Season
-- The Chiefs and Raiders games this year
-- 2006 Bengals and Broncos games
-- Losing to the Pats in 2002 season opener
-- Losing to Kellen Clemens and the Jets in 2007

I have to expound a bit on the Texans game here...
I was at this game (actually I was at several of the ones on this list, and I haven't been to that many...), and the score doesn't reflect AT ALL the maddening quality of this game. The Steelers had over 300 yards of offense (and I think it was actually more than 400). The Texans, on the other hand, had under 30. That's not a typo...under 30. The least number of offensive yards EVER generated by a winning team. EVER.

It is around 1am. I just got home from work where I gave yuppiedouchebagjerkoffs expensive food and more expensive cocktails with shochu. I am tired. I am a sad panda. And then this post.
Why do you hate me? What did I do to you? I didn't murder your family in a blind rage. I didn't take your last Bud Lite with Lime.
You are a bad person.
At least the Pens won.
But you are bad.
Ahhh the 2006 Oakland game. My buddy and I were at the Sports Pub watching Max Starks struggle to even get out of his stance before the DE was around him and abusing Ben. Wasn't Ben sacked like 30 times that game. We watched over and over again as Starks earned the nickname of turnstyle.

I was at the 06 Raider game. I wish I wasn't though... not very pleasant memories. And I don't even want to talk about what the Raiders fans were like!

Straight Shooter (Bad Company album)
|Straight Shooter
|Studio album by Bad Company
|April 1975[1]
|September 1974 at Clearwell Castle, Gloucestershire, England[2]
|Hard rock
|Island (UK)

|Bad Company[2]
|Bad Company chronology
|Singles from Straight Shooter
Straight Shooter is the second studio album by British supergroup Bad Company. The album was released in April 1975, a month after the release of the single "Good Lovin' Gone Bad" and four months before the album's second single "Feel Like Makin' Love" (see 1975 in music).[1]
The album reached number 3 in the UK Albums Chart and the US Billboard 200.[3][4] It was certified gold (500,000 units sold) by the Recording Industry Association of America a month after its release.[5]
Mick Ralphs and Simon Kirke revealed on In the Studio (which devoted an episode to Straight Shooter) that the track "Shooting Star" (which told the story of a rock star who died early) was lyrically inspired by the drug and alcohol-related deaths of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Jim Morrison.
In June 1974, Bad Company released their self-titled debut album.[1] Three months later, the band and recording engineer Ron Nevison recorded at least eight songs at Clearwell Castle in Gloucestershire, England. Sometime later Nevison mixed the songs for Straight Shooter at Air Studios in London. The sleeve for the album was designed by Hipgnosis, who also designed their debut album.[2]
The first single from the album, "Good Lovin' Gone Bad", was released in March 1975[1] and reached No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100.[6] The album was released in April.[1] The album's final single "Feel Like Makin' Love" was released in August[1] and reached No. 10 on the Hot 100.[6]
Critical reception[edit]
|Professional ratings
|Review scores
|Robert Christgau
|Rolling Stone
Straight Shooter received different reviews from different music critics. Gautam Baksi's review of the album for Allmusic said that the album's popularity was attributed to the acoustic ballads "Shooting Star" and "Feel Like Makin' Love", while the two songs written by Simon Kirke—"Anna" and "Weep No More"—as well as the album not having enough supporting songs and follow-up singles, were what made the album less successful than its predecessor.[7] Robert Christgau felt that although Straight Shooter was better than its predecessor, it should not be labelled hard rock because Paul Rodgers did not have either a strong voice, which is needed to be a rock singer and because the album is not played at the right speed.[8] Ed Naha's feeling of the album, as stated in Rolling Stone magazine, was much more favourable than Christgau's. Naha thought that, with their second album, Bad Company was proving that they would not end up like Mott the Hoople, Free, or King Crimson—bands who Bad Company's members used to be part of. Naha also thought that Simon Kirke's "Anna" was as bad as it was when it was first recorded, but that "Weep No More" showed that he was progressing as a writer, while Boz Burrell was also making progress on the bass.[9]

Here, we will give you advice on dieting and Lunchbox information we find interesting.
This advice includes tips, do's and don'ts.
It's the perfect place to get information on what to do in a healthy lifestyle, and the things to include in an unhealthy lifestyle. Take advantage of our lunchbox!
1.Make it a lifestyle. If you say you're gonna do something, you only do it until you accomplish it, right? Well if you say you're on a diet, you will only diet until you feel comfortable with your body. If you make it a lifestyle, you will be comfortable forever!
2.Weight loss secret. Ok before you spend money or all of your time on books, magazines, or mentors, the secret to weight loss is simple. If you want to lose weight, you have to watch what you eat and make exercising a daily habit. It's that simple!
Munch on whole foods like fruit and unsalted nuts. You'll fill up on fewer calories!
3.Soft drinks. Worse thing you can consume. Just think of them as sugar, artificial flavoring, and coloring. Where are the benefits? Got Milk? ...Or a better one: Yogurt. It's rich in protein, containing probiotics, and delicious too!
4.FAST food. Think of fast food as not eating it at all. It only leads to heart disease and a bad colon. Why not take your own lunchbox to work. If you want to wake up in the morning with a smile, the smile will come from the home cooked meal you had from the night before. Eating right should always be delicious, especially from your own lunchbox!
5.Sugar and Bread. Hhmmm...Have you ever saw those commercials that tell you how much sugar is in those energy drinks? Should I say more? And bread, white bread is not good for you. Think about it, when you go to the grocery store, there are many different types of bread to choose from. They did that to give you a better option!
6.Water. Personal story. More and more people are beginning to run these days. Mornings or evenings, you are guaranteed to see a couple of people on the sidewalks getting into shape. I know that no one likes to drink tap water, so get a Sam's Club membership and go get a 30pk of bottled water for $4. Why not save money instead of buying from the neighborhood store.
7.Vitamins. Lets be real. For those vitamin takers out there, we all feel good when we take one and actually see a difference, right? Just knowing that we are doing something that will benefit our bodies is the greatest feeling ever!
8.Make it known. Let anybody and everybody know what you are doing to help yourself out. Wouldn't it feel good to hear people saying, "how did you do it?"
9.Keep a scale. Don't use the analog scales as they are inaccurate. Use digital scales so you will know exactly what you weigh. And when you do weigh yourself, make sure you are on a hard surface.
10.Friendly helper. How about bringing your best friend into the picture. You will most likely need support and motivation.
11.Antioxidants. Antioxidants are truly nature's little miracles! They truly do fight aging and disease like nothing else. Glutathione is the most Powerful Anti-aging Antioxidant! Often referred to as the master antioxidant! Glutathione is over 5,000 times STRONGER than any other antioxidant! You can learn more about the process here.

Michael Matheson, D
Shoots: L
Height: 6-2
Weight: 189
Born: 1994-02-27
Hometown: Pointe-Claire, QC, CAN
Drafted: 23rd overall by Florida in 2012
December 2014 - Matheson has continued to become a more impactful player this season with Boston College as the talented defender has tallied 12 points in his first 17 games. His 12 points puts him in a tie for the team scoring lead. Matheson has already generated 47 shots in those 17 games which leaves him just one shot away from the team lead in that category also. He is still aways from being a valuable fantasy relevant NHL player but is certainly worthy of keeping an eye on in the coming years. - Lee Rayson
November 2014- Matheson has been named captain of the storied Boston College Eagles for his junior campaign. He has recorded four points through six games as he attempts to ecclipse his collegiate high of 25 points in his freshman year. Zach Hopkins
March 2014 - Matheson has 17 points in 35 games this season for the Boston College Eagles. From a fantasy standpoint more was expected from the sophomore who had 25 in his rookie year. BC is stacked but seems to get the majority of their offense from their forwards, including Hobey Baker candidate John Gaudreau (69 points). Nathan Kanter
January 2014 - Matheson continues to fare well in his sophomore College season for the BC as he has 13 points in 24 games, first of all Eagles defesemen. Matheson is a plus-17 on the season. The powerful BC team has a record of 17-4-3. At this point he may be worth picking up only in very deep keeper leagues as he is still at least 2 years away from the NHL and doesn't like to take many offensive risks. Nathan Kanter
November 2013 - Matheson has posted seven points in the first 11 games of the season for BC. It's still early but those are solid totals for a defenseman who is likely to play a big role on a very good team. Nathan Kanter
June 2013 - The smooth-skating rearguard had an impressive freshman season at Boston College, posting eight goals and 17 assists in 36 games. These first-year totals were good enough for a nod to the All-Hockey East Rookie team. The Panthers are in no rush with their 2012 1st rounder as he will return for the Eagles in the fall. He's still at least another couple years away but certainly has potential as a point producing defenseman on a team with relatively no young point producers from the blueline other than Kulikov (Gudbranson and Petrovic will be mainstays but not on the scoresheet). Nathan Kanter
June, 2012 - The Panthers select offensive defenseman Michael Matheson with the 23rd pick in the 2012 NHL Entry Draft in Pittsburgh, PA. Brendan Ross
June, 2012 – Coming off an all-star worthy rookie season in the USHL, Matheson displayed his fantastic skating ability unmatched by most other draft-eligible defensemen. The Boston College commit (for now) is a cerebral rearguard that plays a solid positional game projecting him as a solid two-way defenseman. He could see his name called as early as the first round as teams gravitate towards his strong passing game and his ability to play safely.
Fantasy Outlook: B-
Matheson's upside is limited as a defenseman but his responsible mistake-free approach could see him develop into a solid 40+ reliable defender.

The Kardashians
Which Kardashian Sister Is Oldest?
The Kardashian sisters seem so close, they're almost like triplets! They're definitely not, however. In fact, their ages span five years from youngest to oldest. So who is the eldest Kardashian sister?
Some may think it's Khloe Kardashian. At 5'10", Khloe is definitely the tallest of the three sisters, but she's also the youngest at 28.
Others may think it's Kim Kardashian, but she's just the most famous. At 32, Kim is the middle sister among the three Kardashian ladies and the second eldest of the entire Kardashian/Jenner brood.
That makes Kourtney Kardashian the eldest! Kourtney is also the first Kardashian to have kids. She'll be 34 years old this April.

Gibson ES-335 Block Inlay Electric Guitar, Antique Tea Burst
Gibson ES-335 Block Inlay Electric Guitar, Antique Tea Burst
- Plain maple top rated, back, and rims 3-ply maple/poplar/maple body construction Lightweight maple center block
The ES-335 electrified the guitar globe in the late '50s and speedily became a beloved axe for all designs of music. The reissue faithfully recreates the original physique style of the ES-335, combining it with a slim-taper 1960-style neck. The ES-335 characteristics a maple physique and a mahogany neck with pearloid block inlays. Add vintage-toned Burstbucker Pro humbuckers, and you have a guitar that is each a spectacular instrument and a piece of music history. There are couple of other guitars that match the ES-335 for sheer star energy.Chuck Berry, B.B. King, and other formative players in the evolving early days of rock and electric blues had already immortalized the Gibson ES-335 when the company's engineers fine-tuned the guitar in 1963. Today's Custom Shop ES-335 Block Inlay Reissue model reflects those original refinements, which improve the guitar's playability and beauty.
A great number of music legends have immortalized Gibson's ES-335.
Two '57 Traditional humbucking pickups and stopbar tailpiece.
Headstock with rich holly veneer and vintage tulip style tuners.
The acceptance of the ES-335 was already secure and continued to develop, but in1963 when the 1st generation of the revamped ES-335s left Gibson's Kalamazoo factory sales peaked. That year the dots on the fingerboard of the common ES-335 inaugurated in 1958 were replaced with the block inlays that give this Custom Shop model its name. They offered less complicated visibility in live playing circumstances, where lighting is typically much less than perfect, and an further touch of eye-catching class. The other refinement to the '63 was the use of the tapered, thinner-profile neck prevalent to Gibson's built in the '60s.
Near-best Recreation
The ES-335 Block Inlay guitars created by Gibson's Custom Shop in Memphis nowadays benefit from the exacting standards of contemporary guitar creating engineering, resulting in a a lot more constant instrument than these that originally rolled off the assembly line. And just before every completed guitar leaves the Custom Shop floor it is examined and adjusted by one of the company's state-of-the-art Pleck machines, so it leaves set up for maximum playability.
To recreate a vintage appear, the plain maple top rated, back, and rims of the ES-335 Block Inlay come finished in antique red or antique teaburst. Like the Fat Neck model, it has a lightweight maple centerblock to offer its traditional semi-hollowbody resonant and tonal characteristics. In contrast to the all-maple 1963 ES-335 Block reissue model, the ES-335 Block Inlay has a 3-ply maple/poplar/maple physique construction. There is single-ply cream binding on the best and back and a five-ply '63 style lengthy pickguard. The hardware is nickel, with an ABR bridge and stop tailpiece.
The ES-355 Block Inlay models' neck is a single-piece mahogany shaped to a 1963 slim taper profile that is 24-inch scale length and 1 11/16th-inches wide at the nut. The guitar has a 22-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearloid modest block inlays and single-ply cream binding. The tuners are vintage tulip shaped, handsomely complimenting the headstock.
As opposed to the Custom Shop 1963 ES-335 Block reissue, which has a pair of Gibson '57 Traditional humbuckers, the ES-335 Block Inlay comes with Burstbucker Pro 1 and two pickups. They are controlled by two volume pots, two tone pots, and a 3-way selector switch. And these guitars leave the factory strung with Gibson Brite Wire .010 strings inside a black levant situation, to improve their historic feel and presence.
Nitrocellulose Finish
Applying a nitrocellulose finish to any Gibson guitar is a single of the most labor-intensive components of the guitar-making approach. A properly applied nitro finish demands comprehensive man hours, a number of evenly applied coats, and an exorbitant amount of drying time. But this reality has never ever swayed Gibson into changing this time-tested strategy, employed ever since the very first Gibson guitar was swathed with lacquer back in 1894. Why? For starters, a nitro finish dries to a significantly thinner coat than a polyurethane finish, which signifies there is much less interference with the natural vibration of the instrument, allowing for a purer tone. A nitro finish is also a softer finish, which makes it easily repairable. You can touch up a scratch or ding on a nitro finish, but you can not do the identical on a poly finish. In addition, a nitro finish is quite porous in nature, and truly gets thinner over time. It does not "seal" wood in an airtight shell–as a poly finish does–and enables the wood to breathe and age appropriately.
All VOS (Vintage Original Spec) series guitars will use a proprietary approach that consists of special steps for staining, wet-sanding, and hand-rubbing subsequently the guitars reflect what a well-cared for 40-year-old guitar looks like. The outcome is a impressive patina that will delight even the most discriminating enthusiast.

Bristol Shantymen give boredom the "heave-ho" with library performance
Posted: February 11, 2013|
The Bristol Shantymen will set sail for a free performance at Bath & North East Somerset Council's Midsomer Norton Library on Tuesday 19 February, from 7pm to 8pm.
The popular group will present a fantastic hour of sea songs and shanties, and intriguing stories of how they were used in the past, as part of the Council's "After Hours" programme of events designed to promote the wider use of libraries.
Sea shanties were songs used on sailing ships to help sailors work in co-ordinated rhythm. Although they are no longer used for working purposes they have become popular folk songs; with their rhythms making them especially appealing and hard to resist.
Councillor David Dixon (Lib-Dem, Oldfield), Cabinet Member for Neighbourhoods, said: "The Bristol Shantymen are all set to offer some lively entertainment at Midsomer Norton Library on 19 February – which is sure to warm the cockles of your heart on a cold evening!
"Our 'After Hours' events give people the chance to get even more benefit from Bath & North East Somerset Council's libraries outside of their normal opening times. We encourage anyone who has not yet got a free ticket to hurry before they're all gone."
The event is free but spaces are limited so tickets must be booked by calling Council Connect on 01225 394041or popping into Midsomer Norton Library on the High Street, next to the Holly Court Arcade.

Before/Afterschool /Saturday Tutoring – As a supplemental program, PA-MEP's main priority is to connect students with afterschool programs provided by the school or community. PA-MEP staff ensures that students who have a reading and/or math need and who meet the eligibility criteria, enroll in those programs first. Follow-up is provided to ensure attendance and progress of migrant students. If students are not eligible for other programs or no other programs are available, PA-MEP provides tutoring beyond school hours. Tutoring may also be provided to those students who, despite attending another program, are not making progress. Some tutoring may be done in-home on a one-on-one basis.
Summer School – PA-MEP has award-winning supplemental summer programs. The National Summer Learning Association recognized PA-MEP with the Summer Excellence Award in 2011. Since the 1960's, the PA-MEP has been providing exemplary summer programs for the children of migrant farmworkers. PA-MEP's summer programs are essential in preventing the "summer backslide," wherein English Language Learners and children from low income households can lose up to three months growth in reading during the summer months. The PA-MEP summer program utilizes a thematic unit focus with resources developed to support primary content areas of math, language arts/reading, science, history or geography. Arts and music play an important role at each site, as well as technology. In many sites ecology, green living and service learning are incorporated. We view our comprehensive programming as a model for schools rather than the reverse. Our students are confident in their environment where culture, language and diversity is expected and respected. Programs operate typically for four or five weeks, for four to five days, with six instructional hours per day. All campus programs require a minimum of 110 hours of instruction each summer. The content, i.e. curriculum changes each summer so eligible MEP students can attend for 3 years and not repeat content. Our program does include transition grades: 5 year olds attending Kindergarten the following school year; students going from elementary into middle school and from middle school into high school. We also have credit accrual programs so that students that have had school year interruption complete high school in time. Physical activity (PE) is typically between 30 minutes to an hour each day and includes swimming, soccer and PE. Partnerships with many school districts and agencies provide students with a richer experience. Parent involvement and culmination activities are part of every program.
Regular Term – During the regular school term, PA-MEP staff checks on student progress and facilitates enrollment in in-school/out-of-school educational opportunities that will assist migrant student progress. PA-MEP staff also assists with registration and act as liaisons with the school to ensure participation in parent involvement and other activities (e.g. parent-teacher conferences). See also, before/afterschool/Saturday tutoring.
Life Skills and Reconnection – PA-MEP serves out-of-school youth (OSY), which are youth younger than 22 who have not graduated from high school or completed their GED. Throughout the year, OSY are provided with English as a Second Language (ESL) and life-skill lessons that will enable them to get acquainted with life in America and prepare them for high school reconnection or GED. For many youth, work is their first priority. OSY service providers have to be creative to engage this population. Services can be provided at places of employment, schools or in-home.
Preschool Services – The main goal of preschool services is to prepare students for Kindergarten. First, we try to enroll students in developmentally-appropriate and Keystone-certified programs. If students are not admitted or placed in a waiting list, PA-MEP staff provides center-based or in-home learning. Each migrant student ages 3-5 are assessed using the Migrant School Readiness Checklist. Students receive an initial, school year and summer assessment to indicate their level of preparedness for Kindergarten. Parents are part of this assessment. They are encouraged to participate in in-home activities with their children, as their child's first teacher.

Monday, October 6
The American player Michael Fakuade (18/02/89, Chicago) is responsible for completing the game within the Force this season 2014-2015 Lleida LEB Oro. The newest member of the group Lleida is a wingman 2.01 meters tall and comes from ETB WOHNBAU Pro League in Germany, where it has 8.3 points and 7.3 rebounds per game has taken. "We will power and physical presence under the basket," said coach set Lleida, Joaquin Prado. In this sense, the technician has highlighted the versatility of the player, "because you can play the 4 or 5 position." Thus, "with his physical, the team is full" and, therefore, is the player who had the final Lleida Force after the club decided not to have Fran Urli. 's new booster Lleida and all born in the United States also has a Nigerian national, was educated at the University of Illinois, where he played in the NCAA until the 2011-2012 season, where he went to Germany to play in the Pro B League UBC Hannover Tiger in 2012-2013 and later in the Pro A with WOHNBAU last year. worth mentioning that Fakuade has planned his arrival in Lleida on Tuesday to join quickly to training with the rest of colleagues. "We would have liked to have the player we were missing before, but it is with us earlier in the week is fantastic. Now have the corresponding period of adaptation and will double their efforts, since it takes six weeks disadvantage relative to their new colleagues. But all that work is adapting quickly. " Best feeling in the first league game Regarding the first round of LEB Oro, the Force Lerida fell away to Leyma Coruña Basketball 71-64. "The willingness of the players was very positive, as the team was put in the game for 40 minutes of games, but we lost the clash in the last four minutes," admitted coach set Lleida. In fact, we should mention that the partial were 20-20, 40-39, 56-54 and 71-64. However, the coach said "the room for improvement is wide." However, the Force Lleida lies on the second day, a factor which will force the coaching staff's training in a different way. "We would have liked to play Northern Districts than rest, but the season is well organized. Therefore, make appropriate adjustments to correct various issues and continue the process of adaptation of the players," he added trainer.

When someone saluted Lewis Thorpe this summer with, "Hey coach, congrats on 6-9," the North Lawndale coach had no idea what he was being congratulated for.
"At first I walked away, saying thanks," says Thorpe of being polite in response to the goodwill gesture. "But then I stopped and said, 'Wait, what are you talking about?'"
The response: "The Perkins kid."
Thorpe had no idea who "the Perkins kid" was or that he had enrolled at North Lawndale. After all, this was an unknown player in the city who spent his junior year playing at a low-profile Chicago Public League school and had sprouted four to five inches in the past year.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Wait a minute! Is this another …
Stop right there. No, it's not.
While there will never be another Anthony Davis-type story to sweep through Chicago –– and I mean never –– the Kenneth Perkins story is still pretty intriguing.
When Chicago Public Schools decided to close Dyett High School in 2015, the numbers in the Bronzeville neighborhood school on Chicago's South Side continued to plummet. Perkins was part of that exodus. After this past school year, Perkins, who scored 34 points in leading Dyett to a regional quarterfinal win over Chicago Tech Academy this past season, moved to the West Side and landed at North Lawndale this summer.
And now that Thorpe has gotten a taste of Perkins?
"We are blessed to have him," says Thorpe, almost sheepishly as if he can't believe this bundle of talent landed on his doorstep out of nowhere.
Though very few people are even aware of Perkins, his talents or his story, a forecasted buzz is being delivered. Perkins is downright intriguing. He's grown to a legitimate 6-9 while still playing with the perimeter skills and movement he possessed when he was a 6-4 or 6-5 wing.
"He's shot up at least four inches in the last year, so he's now a 6-9 kid who can play out on the wing and attack the basket off the dribble," says Thorpe. "He's very skilled. He can shoot it and put it on the floor. He can score it, push it on the break, go coast to coast. I love his versatility."
Thorpe's praise doesn't stop there.
"I really think he can be a first-team all-city player," says Thorpe, who has coached his share of talented Public League players over the years. "That's the type of talent and potential I think he has."
Perkins' first taste of truly competitive basketball came this past summer while playing on the AAU circuit for the very first time. Von Steuben coach Vince Carter, the director of the Chicago Demons team Perkins ran with, saw significant strides made in July alone.
"He went from being nervous and timid to being more comfortable and playing with more confidence," says Carter of the three-week progression he saw Perkins make in July. "He just hadn't played at that level before. But he has tremendous upside, and he's what you call a super late-bloomer."
With a comfort level handling and shooting the basketball at his size, Perkins is a bonafide Division I talent with great potential. The unknown prospect is poised to skyrocket up the Class of 2015 player rankings in Illinois.
Perkins is far from a finished product or even close to reaching his potential. Although long and rangy, he's rail thin with very little strength. There will undoubtedly be concerns about whether he can handle the physical nature of the game, both now and in the near future. He will also be going from facing a schedule that saw the likes of Alcott, South Shore and Ace Tech to seeing Farragut, Marshall and Whitney Young on the West Side.
After checking into Perkins once he received the news of his arrival, Thorpe gathered enough intel to know he had a player who did have a few breakout games last year but without any consistency –– or competition.
"He's still finding his way," says Thorpe, who has watched several college coaches at all levels trickle in during open gyms the past two weeks to check out his new basketball toy. "He's going to have to find his way, find his place, and that will happen in time."
Perkins is as anonymous of a 6-9 basketball player as you will find in the city of Chicago. But in a short time Thorpe sees the ingredients, beyond his obvious talents, that can turn an unknown into an appealing and productive player.
"He doesn't realize how good he can be," Thorpe adds. "He's hungry. He's a gym rat. But this is all new to him –– the conditioning, the weight room, the level of competition. But that's what makes him such an interesting and exciting player."
And it also shows that, yes, you can still find hidden, late-blooming talent in a closely-watched and scrutinized basketball hub like Chicago.
Sixteen-year NBA veteran and former Chicago Bull Nazr Mohammed put the spotlight on diabetes research Aug. 1, as he welcomed 300 guests to the third annual Nazr Mohammed Foundation Fundraiser. Athletes and friends, including Joakim Noah, Dee Brown, James "Big Cat" Williams, Jerry Azumah and Israel Idonije filled Galleria Marchetti (825 W. Erie) for an evening of cocktails, hors d'oeuvres, custom cigars and music by The Mo Fitz Project. Silent auction and raffle items such as Bulls tickets, a Gucci duffel bag, a Comcast SportsNet behind-the-scenes tour and autographed jerseys helped net more than $35,000 for the University of Chicago Kovler Diabetes Center, which works to develop innovative treatments and cures for individuals with diabetes.

The Chicago Demons have always been a talented and winning travel program. They are considered one of the state's "classic" programs—a group that includes Full Package, Illinois Hawks, Illinois Warriors, Old Gold, RBS All-Stars, Rising Stars, Team Illinois, and others that dominated in the early 2000s. The Demons produced some of the state's top talent including Tony Allen (Oklahoma State/Memphis Grizzlies), Ryne Hamblet (Bowling Green), Michael Horton (St. Joseph's-Indiana), Billy Rush (Robert Morris/Milwaukee Bucks), Angel Santiago, Jeremie Simmons (Ohio State), and Florentino Valencia (Toledo)—all players who, at one time, ranked among the top 10 players in their respective classes.
With the rise of the shoe company sponsors in travel basketball the Demons, like many other programs, have taken a hit in exposure but program coach George Baker will tell you that the talent is still there…and he's got the proof to back it up.

"Burnett is a pure shooter," stated Coach Baker of the 6'1" guard. "He's at Providence-St. Mel and hit some big three's this year. He was in the games when it mattered. Right now he's probably averaging anywhere from 26-28 points for us. He reminds you of Roosevelt Smart."
This past weekend at the Spiece Run 'N Slam Classic Eddie scored 30+ points in 3 of the games for the Demons who lost in the 15U Silver Championship after Burnett sprained his ankle in the semi-final.
Jason Towers is a floor general that has been the catalyst for the Demons. The 6'0" point guard attends St. Joseph where he is able to learn from one of the best.
"He's at St. Joe's where he's going up against Glynn Watson every day in practice so he's got to be tough. He's a bit of streaky shooter but when he's on, there's nothing you can do."
Both Towers and Burnett rank among the top in-state players in the 2017 class. Coach Baker, who is active in seeking exposure and bringing attention to the players in the program, expects them to be a foundation to help rebuild the reputation of the Demons program.
"I want to show guys that they can win and get exposure playing with us."
When you have a coach as hungry as George Baker and talent like Towers and Burnett, that is sure to be the case.

|Jamal Dantzler
EDINBURG –When you ask University of Texas-Pan American Broncs men's basketball player and senior Jamal Dantzler how he would characterize himself, he replies with self-driven and humble, which is a big reason why he plays basketball today.
Dantzler, a Chicago-native, started playing basketball when he was in the eighth grade. No one from his family introduced him to the game, he picked up as he saw it everyday walking to the park.
"I actually introduced my self to game myself," Dantlzler said. "I used to walk to the park down my street and one day I tried it out. Now, here I am today."
At first, it was just a game to Dantzler, just like any game for a kid but he realized that he found something in basketball and didn't want to let it slip through his fingers.
"I really didn't take it seriously at first," Dantzler said. "I started to notice some good results. I was actually pretty good. I started to take it more seriously and it turned out good for me."
Intrigued by his success on the court, Dantzler joined his eighth grade basketball team where, with the help of his coach Marvin Williams, he learned to see the game in a different way.
"It was my first time playing organized basketball," Dantzler said. "He taught me how to be disciplined, how to see certain things on the court and how to act off the court. He had a big impact on my basketball life."
Dantzler continued playing basketball as he entered Von Steuben High School. His time in AAU basketball is something that he cherishes.
"I think the AAU summer circuit with the Chicago Demons was one of the best times of my life," Dantzler said. "I got to spend time with my friends as we traveled all around the world. We had fun just playing basketball. It was one of the best times for me."
Danztler continued to see the results on the court throughout high school but he remained humble even when those around him started to see his hard work and his potential.
"I was the fan favorite," Dantzler said. "Everyone loved me because I gave it my all every night. I remained humble though. I would have a big game but the next day at school I was even keeled. Being humble in certain situations helped me out so much."
At this point in Dantzler's basketball career, he realized that basketball was important to him and that he couldn't take it for granted.
"It's very important now," Dantzler said. "When I first started I really didn't care but as I saw the results and got advice from all the coaches I learned how to cherish it and now I really value it. It is going well today."
Dantzler went on to play basketball at Kennedy King Community College in Chicago. There he saw some of his best days on the court. Not only was he playing well but he also got to play basketball with his best friend Anthony Kirkland.
"Kennedy King College was the best," Dantzler said. "As far as basketball, I was playing at a high level and I was playing with my best friend. We brought some hardware to the school after finishing runner up at the regional championship."
Kirkland is currently the head boy's basketball coach at Dyett High School. Kirkland acted like a coach long before he had the title as he helped Dantzler take another step step forward in his basketball career.
"We both are big on basketball," Dantzler said. "We balance each other out and keep each other motivated. He was always in my ear telling me the things I should and shouldn't be doing. He was like another set of eyes and ears for me. Almost like a coach."
From Kennedy King Community College, Dantzler had options to play at the Division I level but as fate would have it he ended up choosing UTPA.
"I was getting interest from Central Michigan, Wisconsin-Green Bay and UIC," Dantzler said. "I was on the verge of setting up a visit with Central Michigan before all their staff got fired and that's when UTPA stepped in. After the visit, I knew this was the place for me."
In his first season with the Broncs, Dantzler played in 32 games while averaging 12 minutes per game. He helped the Broncs to a 16-16 record last season but he felt like he could have done more.
"Individually, I felt like I could have brought more to the team," Dantzler said. "Overall, we ended with a .500 record so overall I felt it was a good season."
Going into his second season, Dantzler got a whole new coaching staff, which meant that he was going to have to adjust not only to new coaches but also a new team system but it was something he had been doing ever since he started playing basketball.
"I am getting the hang of it," Dantzler said. "So far I have been doing alright. I have been transferring from school to school during high school and junior college so I am kind of used to it. It is not that hard to make the adjustment going from coach to coach."
This season, Dantzler has seen action in 22 games while getting the starting nod in two of those games. With his final season winding down, he can look back to some good memories. One in particular that stays on his mind is the win over Portland on December 29, 2012.
"We went on the road to play Portland University," Dantzler said. "That was a huge win for us. I remember down the stretch Aaron Urbanus drove the base line and then kicked it out to me with two seconds left on the shot clock. I knocked down the three to kind of seal the game. That was a good memory for me."
After it is all said and done, Dantzler would like to be a coach. With what he has experienced and has learned along the way he feels like he could give back to the game.
"I want to be a coach," Dantzler said. "I feel like I have seen enough on and off the court to help kids grow up to be better basketball players. I should be able to give back now. Since I didn't have anything like that when I was growing up as a kid I have to pick up the ball myself. I want to give back to the community."
Looking back, if Dantzler could do it all over again, he wouldn't change a thing.
"I think everything has happened for a reason," Dantzler said. "I am good at adjusting with everything around me. I wouldn't change a thing. I had a good time here at UTPA."
ST. CHARLES – The St. Charles East boys basketball team didn't work hard enough on the boards in Tuesday's game, so Saints coach Pat Woods promised East will make amends in practice.
Naperville North dominated East in the rebounding department as the Huskies survived a turnover-riddled night by both teams to win the nonconference game, 61-58.
Woods made his remedy for East's rebounding ills clear.
"It's called practice," Woods said. "We're going to fix that problem really quick or we're going to be the best-conditioned team in the Kane County area."
Naperville North (14-8) won its fifth straight game, while slumping East (12-11) dropped its third in a row.
East senior forward AJ Washington had 11 rebounds to go with 13 points and seven blocked shots but none of his teammates gathered more than three rebounds as the Huskies won the rebounding battle by 20, by the Saints' count.
"We have one guy rebounding right now, and that's AJ," Woods said. "We've got to get five guys rebounding, and until that happens, we're going to continue to struggle."
The Saints' full-court defensive pressure rattled the Huskies consistently, presenting a multitude of extra opportunities. But East had its own uncharacteristic ball-handling woes, committing a season-high 23 turnovers, only three fewer than Naperville North.
"If we're turning them over, great, but when we turn over the turnover that we get, it doesn't matter," Woods said.
On those sporadic occasions when Naperville North beat East's press, the Huskies hit paydirt.
"When we didn't turn it over, we scored, because they were pressing so much, so I think that was the key to the thing," Naperville North coach Jeff Powers said. "I know coach Woods is such a great coach and he just put that pressure on us to see how we'd handle it, and we didn't handle it very well at times, but then when we did, we got baskets."
In addition to their turnover binge, the Huskies nearly gave the game away late at the free-throw line. Naperville North missed four straight free throws in the final 30 seconds, and East drew within 59-58 on a Cole Gentry 3-pointer before calling timeout with 4.9 seconds to play.
Washington then committed his fifth foul on Naperville North's Michael Laurenzo with 2.8 seconds, and Laurenzo made both for the game's final points. East called a timeout and forward Mick Vyzral's long inbound pass found Dom Adduci, whose twisting, 25-footer to tie it rimmed off.
Adduci scored 20 points to lead East while Washington and Gentry (12) also were in double figures. The last of Washington's points came on an off-balanced basket while being fouled with 43 seconds to play to make it 56-55 Naperville North.
Washington's attempt to tie it at the foul line was no good, and the rebound was batted out of bounds to the Huskies. Naperville North's Anthony Rehayem then fired a baseball-style, deep inbound pass to Jelani McClain, Jr., who snared the pass in stride and scored while drawing a foul from Zach Manibog. McClain (team-high 17 points) completed the crucial three-point play for a 59-55 lead with 37 seconds to play.

THE SKINNY- Kenwood hung on to earn the 43-41 victory at the Downers North Winter Classic. Downers South scored the final four points of the game, but Javon Turner's layup attempt rimmed out in the final seconds to prevent the extra session. THE STAR- Junior guard Jelani Sankey led the Broncos with 11 points. He had nine in the first half, including a bucket as the first quarter buzzer sounded. QUOTABLE- "We just had to stay with our composure; just keep playing hard and get stops on defense. They came back, but we just did a good job of staying under control. " — Jelani Sankey .

St. Ignatius 2016 wing Will Fleming is a candidate to have a breakout season. After a quality summer running on the circuit with the Chicago Demons 15U he will be looked at to provide scoring for his high school team.
Fleming is a lights out shooter that plays with a high basketball IQ and rebounds well. We spoke with the 2016 wing about how his summer went with the Chicago Demons.
"This summer my Demons team did very well. I was really counted on to bring my game every time we played and we were able to do well in the tournaments. We played a lot of tough close games that just made us better and that helped us in the long run. This summer was really the first time I had to play on the perimeter and I feel like that helped me a lot with my game."
The sophomore talked about his strengths as a player.
"This summer I really became a solid three point shooter. I've developed my game off of that by being able to get around people after a shot fake. My ball handling has improved a lot over the summer also."
He is ready for a big season with his team at St. Ignatius.
"I really look forward to making an impact on varsity. Our goal as a team is to win the Catholic League and then make it down state. I feel we have a pretty good chance to do so."

Nigerian Olympic basketball player,
Richard Oruche is an alumni of the Chicago Demons basketball program.
He played from 2003-2005.
Richard's journey to London is the epitome of hard work paying off.
Despite the fact that Richard possessed an above average skill set and
credentials as the MVP at Fenton, he was not highly touted as a high
school basketball player.
Richard joined our organization adding the combination of solid
ballhandling, consistent midrange jumpshot with strong leadership
skills and passion to succeed.
After high school, Richard enrolled at Northern Illinois as a
preferred walk-on. He played for two years. Richard eventually
transferred to the University of Illinois at Springfield where he was
an all-conference performer.
Richard currently plays professionally in Africa.
The Chicago Demons are proud and support your efforts. Good luck in
London, Rich.
