Governor's tenure reform bill for teachers passes House
The bill making tenure harder for teachers in Tennessee to both get and keep sailed to approval in the House on Thursday.
Its companion bill passed in the Senate earlier this month.
The proposal says teachers must be on the job five years instead of three to earn the job security tenure provides. It also says teachers can be returned to probationary status if they perform below expectations for two consecutive years.
Gov. Bill Haslam introduced the bill to build into law the education reforms the state is attempting through the $500 million it received last year in Race to the Top funds.
The measure passed 65-32 in the House and 21-12 in the Senate.
Teachers say the changes in tenure will subject them to standards that have not been tested. For instance, the bill requires probationary teachers to perform at the top of a five-point scale two years before receiving tenure. What is required at each level has not been determined, said Keith Williams, head of the teachers union in Memphis.
"It is causing a lot of trepidation," he said.
Williams says it is unfair to base high-stakes decisions on test scores because so much is beyond a teacher's control: "How can I be classified on issues that have not been addressed, like a student's exposure and attendance? So much goes into these scores."
The other issue, he said, is that only 60 percent of teachers teach subjects that are covered by state tests, asking, "How will the others be evaluated?"
New, stricter teacher evaluation rules go into effect July 1. Under them, tenured teachers now evaluated once every five years will be evaluated annually.
The expectation is that new teachers will be observed six times a year and will be expected to pass high standards, including student achievement benchmarks, before tenure will be awarded.
"Tennessee's new teacher evaluation system will be much more rigorous than the current system," said Jim Mitchell, school leader in residence at the University of Memphis College of Education.
"That new system begins next August, therefore it's reasonable to provide new teachers a five-year opportunity to earn tenure under the new, more rigorous evaluation system," Mitchell said.
Haslam pushed for the five-year tenure process in part so that new teachers could be evaluated on three years of test data.
Based on student test scores alone, only about 20 percent of Memphis teachers score high enough to earn tenure under the proposed tenure standards.
Memphis City Schools Supt. Kriner Cash has told teachers he is for tenure reform, saying it allows teachers more time in the field to perfect their skills.
Business leaders early in the session lobbied for tenure reform.
"One thing that troubles me is there has been a lot of talk about money and teachers," John Moore, president of the Greater Memphis Chamber said this month. "We really have to look at what we are producing and what we are offering our children in terms of a quality education."

Product description
For Sherry Turkle, "We think with the objects we love; we love the objects we think with." In Evocative Objects, Turkle collects writings by scientists, humanists, artists, and designers that trace the power of everyday things. These essays reveal objects as emotional and intellectual companions that anchor memory, sustain relationships, and provoke new ideas.These days, scholars show new interest in the importance of the concrete. This volume's special contribution is its focus on everyday riches: the simplest of objects--an apple, a datebook, a laptop computer--are shown to bring philosophy down to earth. The poet contends, "No ideas but in things." The notion of evocative objects goes further: objects carry both ideas and passions. In our relations to things, thought and feeling are inseparable.Whether it's a student's beloved 1964 Ford Falcon (left behind for a station wagon and motherhood), or a cello that inspires a meditation on fatherhood, the intimate objects in this collection are used to reflect on larger themes--the role of objects in design and play, discipline and desire, history and exchange, mourning and memory, transition and passage, meditation and new vision.In the interest of enriching these connections, Turkle pairs each autobiographical essay with a text from philosophy, history, literature, or theory, creating juxtapositions at once playful and profound. So we have Howard Gardner's keyboards and Lev Vygotsky's hobbyhorses; William Mitchell's Melbourne train and Roland Barthes' pleasures of text; Joseph Cevetello's glucometer and Donna Haraway's cyborgs. Each essay is framed by images that are themselves evocative. Essays by Turkle begin and end the collection, inviting us to look more closely at the everyday objects of our lives, the familiar objects that drive our routines, hold our affections, and open out our world in unexpected ways.

Ford Motor Co. will save some architectural features from its former 1920s-era assembly building, which is slated to be torn down soon as part of the ongoing demolition of the old auto factory in St. Paul's Highland Park neighborhood.
Donna Inch, head of Ford Motor's real estate subsidiary, told St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman this week that the company had decided to preserve parts of the historic facade on the building's northwest corner. The pieces include seven bays with fluted columns, medallions and light fixtures, red clay roof tiles and the frieze on the west side.
It wasn't immediately clear that the decision was new. A year ago, Ford site manager Mike Hogan was saying that the company planned to salvage part of the facade as well as some interior fixtures.
Architectural historian Brian McMahon, who lobbied hard to save part of the assembly building itself as well as the adjacent training center, said he was disappointed.
"I'm pleased to be able to save the pieces. It's a gesture. It has some value," said McMahon, who has written about the plant. "But it's not going to mean much in a setting removed from the history of the activity that happened there."
Coleman, however, said he was pleased with Ford's decision to save the facade, which he said would be incorporated into future site redevelopment.
"I look forward to working with Ford and the developer to create a fitting memorial on the site," he said in a statement.
And Council Member Chris Tolbert, who represents the area, said he was satisfied. "This recognizes the special place these buildings hold in our community, while balancing the need to prepare the site for redevelopment," he said.
In her letter to Coleman, Inch wrote that officials had analyzed the options before choosing to preserve the elements listed, and had lined up a restoration company to remove and store the features until they can be reused.
She said the decision will best memorialize Ford's heritage while fitting in with the city's redevelopment plans.
Henry Ford himself chose the plant site because it could accommodate thousands of workers and take advantage of the hydroelectric potential of the nearby Mississippi River. The plant produced Model T's, Galaxie LTDs and Ranger trucks before Ford closed it in 2011.
The company wants to make the 122-acre site as shovel-ready as possible, eventually turning it into a tract of grassy riverfront in hopes of drawing developers for a potential mix of housing, businesses and perhaps even light industry.

We first learned about Roccat's Kave XTD 5.1 Digital Gaming Headset back in August of last year. At the time, Roccat said it hoped to ship the peripheral in November for $170 MSRP.
We were bummed when Klipsch stopped making new speaker lines for PCs. To this day, we're fans of the ProMedia 2.1 and 5.1 Ultra speaker sets, both of which deliver crisp audio and hard hitting bass. Maybe one day Klipsch will re-enter the PC speaker market, but in the meantime, the company will try its hand at gaming headsets starting with the launch of the KG-200 and KG-300 Wireless.
NZXT's latest computer case, the H440, is a forward looking enclosure that encourages you to retire your optical media. That's because it doesn't come with any 5.25-inch drive bays, so if you want to save data to discs or install games and applications the old school way, you'll need an external optical drive to get the task done. NZXT made the sacrifice in order to facilitate a cleaner design.
We all love fast hardware -- burly graphics cards, oodles of RAM, multi-core processors -- but one of the unsung heros is cooling. Crucial as it may be to a stable running machine, cooling isn't always glamorous or sexy. That being the case, it was refreshing to see a few vendors showing off new fan designs, including Zalman, which brought to CES a crop of cooling (and case) products.
Case and PC peripheral maker Cooler Master has been kicking out some nifty gear the past few months, including the HAF Stacker. Cooler Master made sure to bring its modular case design to CES where Maximum PC Online Managing Editor Jimmy Thang had a chance to check it out up close and on camera.
Just when you thought virtual reality might be dead, here came the Oculus Rift, a VR headset that raised nearly $2.5 million on Kickstarter. The Oculus Rift has sparked excitement among gamers and developers alike, prompting other device makers to jump on board the little bandwagon that could (virtual reality).
Sennheiser is a name most audio enthusiasts are already familiar with, though it's not all that often that the German maker of audio gear specifically targets gamers. Now with the help of Io-Interactive (part of the Square Enix group and creator of games like Hitman and Kane & Lynch), Sennheiser has gamers directly in its sights with its new G4ME ZERO and G4ME ONE headsets.
One thing we simply won't argue is that typing on a mechanical keyboard is a superior experience than pecking away on a membrane-based plank -- there's just no contest. One of the most popular makers of mechanical key switches is Cherry MX, and together with Corsair, the two companies announced the "MX RGB Project" gaming keyboard at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES).
PC gaming is not only alive and well as we kickstart a brand new year, it's also the primary focus of some peripheral makers. That includes Roccat, a company based out of Germany that's been increasing its focus on the U.S. market with a variety of hardware aimed at gamers.
EVGA has designed a handy DisplayPort hub that allows for multi-monitor connectivity from a single DisplayPort source, negating the need to invest in another graphics card. The hub supports up to three DisplayPort compatible monitors without any special software or drivers other than your graphics card driver.
If you're looking for gaming peripherals to match the white computer case you just bought, Genius may be your ticket to color coordination.
It's hard to tell if flight sims will ever be as popular as they were back in the 1990s, but rest assured, if you're a fan of the genre, not all PC peripheral makers have forgotten about you. That's especially true of Mad Catz, which today announced that the Saitek X-55 Rhino H.O.T.A.S. (Hands On Throttle and Stick) will ship to consumers in early 2014 at an affordable price point.
BitFenix has an extensive line of computer cases and related accessories, and now the company can add audio products to its portfolio. Headlining the new audio lineup is the BitFenix Flo headset available in a variety of color options, including Midnight Black, Arctic White, Fire Red, and Cobalt Blue.
Mionix isn't a name you hear that all that often in the States, though I tend to perk up when they make an announcement. That's because I played with the company's Naos 8200 mouse a year ago and it quickly became my go-to rodent, at least until my puppy decided it would make a great chew toy.
Statistics are crap when it comes to plugging in a USB peripheral. What we mean by that is, statistically speaking, you have a 50 percent chance of choosing the correct orientation as you fumble around the back of your desktop or try to plug in a USB flash drive into your notebook in the dark. Why then, does it always seem like it takes two tries to get it right?

MOCAD and Media City Film Festival present Malcolm Le Grice +
Matana Roberts: Coin Coin Chapter Three (river run thee)
Tuesday, July 28, 8pm
Admission: $5 (Free for MOCAD members and Media City attendees)
MOCAD is honored to continue to host the opening night of Media City Film Festival, an international event held annually in Detroit and Windsor and now in its 21st year.
Malcolm Le Grice (b.1940) is one of the most influential filmmakers in the history of artists' cinema. He studied at the Slade School of Fine Art, London, founded the London Filmmakers' Co-op Workshop in the late 1960s, and was a founding member of the legendary Filmaktion group, endorsing a more active, improvisational and participatory experience of cinema that re-envisioned the possibilities for film as a live event. LeGrice also carried out the first experiments with computer-based filmmaking in Britain. His works have screened at The Museum of Modern Art in New York and Vienna; the Louvre, Paris; Tate Modern and Tate Britain; Documenta, Kassel; the Paris Biennale, and the Fondacion Joan Miró in Barcelona. His works are included in the permanent collections of the Centre Georges Pompidou; the Royal Belgian Film Archive; the National Film Library of Australia; the German Cinematheque, and L' Archives du Film Experimental D'Avignon. He has written extensive critical and theoretical publications, including a history of experimental cinema 'Abstract Film and Beyond' (Studio Vista and MIT, 1977), and 'Experimental Cinema in the Digital Age' (British Film Institute, 2001). Le Grice is Professor Emeritus of the University of the Arts London.
Matana Roberts is an internationally renowned composer, band leader, saxophonist, sound experimentalist, and mixed-media practitioner. Roberts works in many contexts and mediums, including improvisation, dance, poetry, and theater. Roberts has been called "a major talent" (The Wire) and "the spokeswoman for a new, politically conscious and refractory Jazz scene" (Jazzthetik). She presents the Detroit premiere of 'Coin Coin Chapter Three (river run thee)'. The ongoing Coin Coin project, a multi-chapter work of "panoramic sound quilting," aims to expose the mystical roots and channel the intuitive spirit-raising traditions of American creative expression while maintaining a deep and substantive engagement with history, community, and political expression within improvisational music.
With DJ sets from Ephraim Asili, an artist, filmmaker, DJ, radio host, and traveler, who won the Tom Berman Award for Most Promising Filmmaker at this year's Ann Arbor Film Festival.

Yoga for health
Various traditions of yoga are found in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.[5][6][7][6] In Hinduism, yoga is one of the six āstika schools(accepts authority of Vedas)[8] of Hindu philosophy.[9] Yoga is also an important part of Vajrayana and Tibetan Buddhist philosophy.[10][11][12]
Pre–philosophical speculations and diverse ascetic practices of first millennium BCE were systematized into a formal philosophy in early centuries CE by the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.[13] By the turn of the first millennium, hatha yoga emerged from tantra.[14][15] It along with its many modern variations, is the style that many people associate with the word yoga today. Vajrayana Buddhism, founded by the Indian Mahasiddhas,[16] has a parallel series of asanas and pranayamas, such as caṇḍālī[12] and yantra yoga.
India gurus brought yoga to the west,[17] following the succes of Swami Vivekananda in the late 19th and early 20th century.[17] In the 1980s, yoga became popular as a system of physical exercise across the Western world. This form of yoga is often called Hatha yoga. Many studies have tried to determine the effectiveness of yoga as a complementary intervention for cancer, schizophrenia, asthma and heart disease.[18][19][20][21] In a national survey, long-term yoga practitioners in the United States reported musculo–skeletal and mental health improvements.[22]

DEFINITION of 'Variable Interest Entity - VIE'
An entity (investee) in which the investor has obtained less than a majority-owned interest, according to the United States Financial Accounting Standards Board. A variable interest entity (VIE) is subject to consolidation if certain conditions exist.
If a firm is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the holdings must be disclosed on the balance sheet. The primary beneficiary is defined as the person or company with the majority of variable interests.
Also known as a conduit.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Variable Interest Entity - VIE'
VIEs are commonly used within financial firms for their subprime mortgage-backed securities. They can be a special-purpose vehicle (SPV) that allows firms to keep assets off of their balance sheets. A VIE refers to the way a firm's exposure to the SPV can change. This is the key to whether or not it can be excluded from the balance sheet.
A corporation can use such a vehicle to finance an investment without putting the entire firm at risk. The problem, as with SPVs in the past, is that they have become a method of hiding things (such as subprime exposure).

Résumé :
Each of the books that Hannah Arendt published in her lifetime was unique, and to this day each continues to provoke fresh thought and interpretations. This was never more true than for Eichmann in Jerusalem, her account of the trial of Adolf Eichmann, where she first used the phrase "the banality of evil." Her consternation over how a man who was neither a monster nor a demon could nevertheless be an agent of the most extreme evil evoked derision, outrage, and misunderstanding. The firestorm of controversy prompted Arendt to readdress fundamental questions and concerns about the nature of evil and the making of moral choices. Responsibility and Judgment gathers together unpublished writings from the last decade of Arendt's life, as she struggled to explicate the meaning of Eichmann in Jerusalem. At the heart of this book is a profound ethical investigation, "Some Questions of Moral Philosophy"; in it Arendt confronts the inadequacy of traditional moral "truths" as standards to judge what we are capable of doing, and she examines anew our ability to distinguish good from evil and right from wrong. We see how Arendt comes to understand that alongside the radical evil she had addressed in earlier analyses of totalitarianism, there exists a more pernicious evil, independent of political ideology, whose execution is limitless when the perpetrator feels no remorse and can forget his acts as soon as they are committed. Responsibility and Judgment is an essential work for understanding Arendt's conception of morality; it is also an indispensable investigation into some of the most troubling and important issues of our time. From the Hardcover edition.

Increased Insulin Requirements During Exercise at Very High Altitude in Type 1 Diabetes
ABSTRACT Safe, very high altitude trekking in subjects with type 1 diabetes requires understanding of glucose regulation at high altitude. We investigated insulin requirements, energy expenditure, and glucose levels at very high altitude in relation to acute mountain sickness (AMS) symptoms in individuals with type 1 diabetes.
Eight individuals with complication-free type 1 diabetes took part in a 14-day expedition to Mount Meru (4,562 m) and Mount Kilimanjaro (5,895 m) in Tanzania. Daily insulin doses, glucose levels, energy expenditure, and AMS symptoms were determined. Also, energy expenditure and AMS symptoms were compared with a healthy control group.
We found a positive relation between AMS symptoms and insulin requirements (r = 0.78; P = 0.041) and AMS symptoms and glucose levels (r = 0.86; P = 0.014) for Mount Kilimanjaro. Compared with sea level, insulin doses tended to decrease by 14.2% (19.7) (median [interquartile range]) (P = 0.41), whereas glucose levels remained stable up to 5,000 m altitude. However, at altitudes >5,000 m, insulin dose was unchanged (36.8 ± 17 vs. 37.6 ± 19.1 international units [mean ± SD] P = 0.75), but glucose levels (7.5 ± 0.6 vs. 9.5 ± 0.8 mmol/L [mean ± SD] P = 0.067) and AMS scores (1.3 ± 1.6 vs. 4.4 ± 4 points [mean ± SD] P = 0.091) tended to increase. Energy expenditure and AMS symptoms were comparable in both groups (P = 0.84).
Our data indicate that in complication-free individuals with type 1 diabetes, insulin requirements tend to increase during altitudes above 5,000 m despite high energy expenditure. This change may be explained, at least partly, by AMS.

ABSTRACT: A growing number of subjects with diabetes take part in physical activities at altitude such as skiing, climbing, and trekking. Exercise under conditions of hypobaric hypoxia poses some unique challenges on subjects with diabetes, and the presence of diabetes can complicate safe and successful participation in mountain activities. Among others, altitude can alter glucoregulation. Furthermore, cold temperatures and altitude can complicate accurate reading of glucose monitoring equipment and storage of insulin. These factors potentially lead to dangerous hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. Over the last years, more information has become available on this subject.PURPOSE: To provide an up-to-date overview of the pathophysiological changes during physical activity at altitude and the potential problems related to diabetes, including the use of (continuous) blood glucose monitors and insulin pumps. To propose practical recommendations for preparations and travel to altitude for subjects with diabetes.DATA SOURCES AND SYNTHESIS: We researched PubMed, medical textbooks, and related Internet sites, and extracted human studies and data based on relevance for diabetes, exercise, and altitude.LIMITATIONS: Given the paucity of controlled trials regarding diabetes and altitude, we composed a narrative review and filled in areas lacking diabetes-specific studies with data obtained from nondiabetic subjects.CONCLUSIONS: Subjects with diabetes can take part in activities at high, and even extreme, altitude. However, careful assessment of diabetes-related complications, optimal preparation, and adequate knowledge of glycemic regulation at altitude and altitude-related complications is needed.Diabetes Care 08/2014; 37(8):2404-2413.

Article: Potential drug interactions in travelers with chronic illnesses: A large retrospective cohort study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Background: Data regarding the prevalence of potential interactions between travel-related medications (TRM) and chronic medications in use, or medical conditions of travelers to developing countries are limited. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of travelers to low income countries. We extracted data on demographics, travel destinations, use of chronic medications, drug allergies, and relevant medical conditions. The following TRM were evaluated: mefloquine, primaquine, doxycycline, atovaquone/proguanil, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, rifaximin, azithromycin, and acetazolamide. Results: A total of 16,263 travelers were included in the analysis, of whom 3299(20%) suffered from chronic illnesses and 2316(14%) reported chronic medication use. A potential drug-drug interaction with TRM was identified in 1047(45%) of travelers using chronic medication. Fluoroquinolones and azithromycin were the most commonly implicated TRMs. A potential medical condition interaction with TRM was identified in 717(22%) of travelers having chronic illnesses. acetazolamide, primaquine and mefloquine, were the most commonly TRMs implicated. Drug allergies, which can pose a relative contraindication for use of acetazolamide, were reported by 1323(8.1%) of all travelers. Conclusions: Potential drug-drug and drug-disease interactions involving TRM might occur in a significant proportion of travelers with chronic medical conditions. Education of health practitioners regarding such potential drug interactions and caution when in prescribing travel-related medications is warranted.Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease 05/2014; 12(5).
