Book study groups and professional learning communities, click here to save 15% when you order 15 copies of What''s the Big Idea? Save $50.63!
Many people have written about how theory (or research) relates to practice; Jim is one of those rare professionals who live the relationship. His book is rich with insights from other scholars and teachers, woven together in a convincing web of argument and insight. But the book is just as rich in classroom experience, using the wisdom of the expert practitioner to focus his arguments on the lives of his students-in all their richness and complexity.
-Arthur Applebee, NAEP advisor, Validation Committee member for Common Core, Author of Curriculum as Conversation
Why a book about questions? "Because when students'' instruction is organized around meaningful, clear questions," writes Jim Burke in What''s the Big Idea? "they understand better, remember longer, and engage much more deeply and for greater periods of time."
Jim shows how making essential questions the center of your teaching can ease the tension between good teaching and teaching to the test while giving students dependable, transferable tools for reading, writing, thinking, and participating in the real world. Going in depth on his own units for frequently taught books, Jim shows how to plan lessons, units, and even entire courses around big ideas to help students:
"Although no one thing can ever be the solution to all problems," Jim writes, "this book demonstrates the ways in which questions can address your concerns and develop in our students the mental acuity and fluency necessary to succeed in school and at work, as well as to achieve a sense of purpose in their personal lives." The only question now is, Are you ready to change your students'' learning and lives?

Female impersonation need say nothing about sexual identity, but it has for a long time been almost an institutionalized aspect of gay male culture.
Although sparse in images documenting the gay community, pre-Stonewall gay male photography blurs the boundaries between art, erotica, and social history.
Given the historic stigma around making, circulating, and possessing overtly homoerotic images, the visual arts have been especially important for providing a socially sanctioned arena for depicting the naked male body and suggesting homoerotic desire.
Independent films that aggressively assert homosexual identity and queer culture, the New Queer Cinema can be seen as the culmination of several developments in American cinema.
Renowned photographer, teacher, critic, editor, and curator, Minor White created some of the most interesting photographs of male nudes of the second half of the twentieth century, but did not exhibit them for fear of scandal.
The first international fashion superstar, Halston dressed and befriended some of America's most glamorous women.
An artistic movement that grew out of Dadaism and flourished in Europe shortly after World War I, Surrealism embraced the idea that art was an expression of the subconscious.
Film, stage, and television actor Paul Winfield was openly gay in his private life, but maintained public silence about his homosexuality.
Detail from a video filmed in St. Petersburg by allout.org.
On April 11-12, 2012, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton hosted the G8 Foreign Ministers Meeting at Blair House in Washington, D.C. Attending the meeting, in addition to Clinton, were the foreign ministers of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, and the United Kingdom. The G8 foreign ministers adopted a resolution in favor of glbtq rights, but the vote was 7-1, with Russia casting the sole negative vote.
As Alexander Kolyander explains in an article in the Wall Street Journal, Russia's rejection of the G-8 resolution is part of a growing pattern of homophobia exhibited by the Russian government and people.
The statement issued at the conclusion of the G8 Foreign Ministers meeting read as follows: "The ministers reaffirmed that human rights and fundamental freedoms are the birthright of all individuals, male and female, including lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender individuals. These individuals often face death, violence, harassment and discrimination because of their sexual orientation in many countries around the world."
Appended to this statement document was a footnote, which declared that "the Russian Federation disassociates itself from this language given the absence of any explicit definition or provision relating to such a group or such persons as separate rights holders under international human rights law."
Russia's deputy foreign minister Sergei Ryabkov made his country's position clear. He denounced the G8 statement, alleging that "under the pretext of protecting the so-called sexual minorities, in effect there's aggressive propaganda and the imposition of certain behavior and values that may insult the majority of the society."
Earlier this year, the parliament of St. Petersburg, Russia's second-largest city, approved a law banning "homosexual propaganda" directed at minors, with fines of up to $17,000 for offenders. Two people have already been prosecuted for displaying a sign reading "being gay is normal" near a youth club.
The law, which passed the legislature on a vote of 29 to 5, defines propaganda of homosexuality as "the targeted and uncontrolled dissemination of generally accessible information capable of harming the health and moral and spiritual development of minors," particularly that which could create "a distorted impression" of "marital relations."
Igor Kochetkov, the head of the Russian L.G.B.T. Network, a rights group based in St. Petersburg, called the premise of the law "absurd."
"You can also adopt a law against turning off the light of the sun, but no one has the ability to do this. Even if someone wanted to, no amount of propaganda is going to turn a heterosexual gay.""This is a law that can be used, and will be used, to conduct searches of organizations and prevent public actions," he said. "Most importantly, it will be used for official propaganda. Officially homosexuality will be considered illegal, something incorrect and something that cannot be discussed with children. It will create a negative atmosphere in society around gays and lesbians as well as our organizations."
Three Russian regions have followed St. Petersburg's suit. A draft of similar legislation has been submitted to the State Duma, the lower house of Russia's parliament, by the Novosibirsk city parliament.
Earlier this year an attempt by Russian activists to register as an NGO to establish a Pride House for the 2014 Olympics, slated for the Russian city of Sochi, was roundly rejected by the Russian Ministry of Justice. When activists appealed in court, their efforts met with defeat and disdain.
In a decision released in March, an appellate judge, Svetlana Mordovina, said that the aims of the Pride movement "contradict the basics of public morality and the policy of the state in the area of family motherhood and childhood protection."
She added, "The activities of the [Pride House] movement lead to propaganda of non-traditional sexual orientation which can undermine the security of the Russian society and the state, provoke social-religious hatred, which is the feature of the extremist character of the activity."
The Pride House established for the Vancouver Olympics in 2010 proved to be enormously popular among both gay and straight athletes. The same is likely to be true for the Pride House at the 2012 London Olympics.
I would hope that Russia's disdain for the human rights of glbtq people might prompt calls for a boycott of the Russian Olympics and that the United States Olympic Committee would support such a boycott.
The international gay rights organization AllOut.org earlier called for a boycott by tourists of St. Petersburg, Russia's largest tourist attraction, to protest the anti-gay legislation recently passed there. They have now issued another video calling for civil disobedience in response to the legislation.

Lying at an altitude of 1,340 meters above sea level, 619 km northwest of Tehran, the second largest city in Iran until the late 1960s and one of its former capitals (with a population of 1,400,000 according to 1992 census), Tabriz is located in a valley to the north of the long ridge of Mount Sahand. The valley opens out into a plain that slopes down gently to the northern end of Lake Orumieh, 60 km to the west.
With a very rich history, Tabriz used to house many historical monuments. Unfortunately, many of them were destroyed in repeated invasions and attacks of foreign forces, negligence of the ruling governments, as well natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods. What remains now mostly dates back to the Illkhanids, the Safavids, and the Qajars. Some of the monuments are unrivaled masterpieces of architecture.
The Shahrdari Square is the center of the town, on the south-west of which stands the imposing edifice of Municipality. The railway station (5km from the center of the town) is at the western edge of the town. The Quri Chai river runs through Tabriz, and most places of interest to the visitor are to the south of this river and along or north of Imam Khomeini Avenue.
Annual Temperature average:

The Tabrizn Bazaar. (Tabriz)
Strolling in the center of Tabriz, particularly Motahari Avenue, one is reminded very forcibly that it is a commercial city: one cannot miss its very large and 15th century covered bazaar occupying an area of one square kilometer. It is already much diminished in its variety of goods, but still a great place for getting hopelessly lost amid its dusty architectural splendors. Its architectural style, numerous caravansaries, mosques, and schools have added further beauty and glory to this complex. Exact information on the history and origin of the bazaar is not available; however, historical buildings such as the Jame Mosque, Talebieh School, and Sadeqieh School indicate that the complex is one of the oldest structures of the city. The present structure of bazaar dates back to the closing years of the Zand dynasty (1750-1779 AD). While seeing the real bazaar, the visitor will understand with the amusement of recognition the shocked tone of the Moor, that indefatigable traveler Ibn Battuta, who visited Tabriz in 1334:
"I passed through the jewelers bazaar, and my eyes were dazzled by the varieties of precious stones that I beheld. They were displayed by beautiful slaves wearing rich garments with a waist sash of silk, who stood in front of the merchants, exhibiting the jewels to the Turks wives, who bought them in large quantities to outdo each other. A riot broke out among them may Allah preserve us from such a din! We went on to the ambergris market, and witnessed the same rowdiness, if anything even worse."
The complex has high brick domes and arches. It includes several small bazaars, or bazaarches, each for a specific guild and craft. Carpet making is the main trade, but Tabriz is also renowned for its silverware and jewelry. The spice bazaar, one of the most pungent and impressive in Iran, is an excellent place for picking up henna. Look out also for the traditional Azari hats resembling those worn by the gypsies of Western Europe.

Blue Mosque . (Tabriz)
The Blue Mosque (or Masjid-eKabud) on the north side of Imam Khomeini Avenue, is a 15th century structure destroyed by one of Tabrizs recurrent earthquakes. Despite showing a sorry ruin, it was recently restored with the utmost skill. Because of the blue tiles used in the decoration of both interior and exterior of the mosque, it has become to be known as the Turquoise of Islam.
What remains of the mosque is a witness to its earlier grandeur and splendor. Completed in 1465 by Nimatullah ibn Mohammad Bavvab, architect of Prince Jahan Shah Torkman Salimi (of the Qara Qoyunlu rulers) even today its Timurid tilework (main entrance) with a blue-on-white inscription band of mosaic tile in Riqa calligraphy is of a magnificence rivaling that of the Sanctuary of Mashhad, as well as a remarkable aspect of the new techniques, designs and wider range of colors used here.
The entrance portal with its two minarets appears to have been connected with the main prayer hall (Shabestan) under the largest cupola of the mosque, by means of vaulted corridor. On both sides along the corridor, there stand the remains of the chambers with vaulted roofs. The walls of the mosque have been riveted with marble slabs and decorated with superb mosaic tiles. Some of the blue mosaics in the mosques portal are heavily damaged and half missing. The mosque is now almost permanently closed, but renovation work and eventual reopening seem inevitable.

Ilgoli tabriz .(Tabriz)
Before you leave Tabriz, do not miss El Goli or the National Park (former Shah Goli), a pleasant hillside garden and park around an artificial lake to the area of 54,675 square meters in the style of the much smaller Bagh-e Takht north of Shiraz or the Qasr-e Qajar north of Tehran. El Goli, only 4 km south of downstream Tabriz, is so lovely a place that it deserves an illustration. It is a popular weekend resort for the locals.
A hill in the eastern side of the park leads down to the pool with steps and a fountain from the top of the hill flows down to the pool. In the center of the pool there is a grand hexagonal building. The pool itself is said to have been built during the reign of Aq Qoyunlu kings. However, it was extended by the Safavids. During the rule of Qahraman Mirza, son of Abbas Mirza of Qajar dynasty, it was fundamentally repaired. Recently a big park has been built on the Airport Road, which attracts many visitors.

Aqmiyoon Fire Temple, Sarab
This structure is in the village of Aqmiyoon 8 km. north of Sarab; at present only the stone foundations of which have been remained. Originally, the structure was a fire-temple of the Sassanid era, and during the Islamic period has become similar to a shrine. There is a tomb on an elevation in the center, well known as 'Imamzadeh Hassan' relative to the year (708 A.H.).
Holy Churches( Tabriz)
From the earliest day of Christianity there has been a sizable Armenian community in Tabriz, and the city boasts a number of churches, including one mentioned by Marco Polo on his travels.
Nowaday Tabriz has six churches, the most important of which are: Saint Serkis Church, located in the Armenian quarter of Tabriz, Baron Avak, which was renovated in 1845; probably the most interesting and the oldest but substantially rebuilt Church of St Mary (Kelisa-ye Maryam-e Moghaddas) which was completed in 1785, on the corner of North Shariati Ave and Jomhuri Ave; Able Mary Church which was built in 1910 and is on Miar Miar quarter of Tabriz.

Yesterday we reported that while New England Patriots were gashing the Houston Texans left and right, Ravens linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo was at home basking in the glory of his teams defeat over the Broncos and sent out a reckless tweet, claiming that Patriots uptempo offense was a gimmick, and mocking spygate. Pro Football Talk is reporting that Ayanbadejo took to twitter to apologize to a juggernaut that needs no more motivation. Ayanbadejo caught himself, and I'm sure someone got in his ear and let him know lesser offense than that ******** offense have drubbed the Ravens this year.

From John Fay:
http://cincinnati.com/blogs/reds/201...-cards-series/The Reds project crowds of 37,000-plus for the Monday-Tuesday games and 35,000-plus for the Wednesday game vs. St. Louis next week at Great American Ball Park, Reds senior vice president of business operations Karen Forgus said.
The Monday and Tuesday games start at 7:10 p.m., the Wednesday game at 12:35 p.m.
We are expecting a playoff atmosphere and a lot of excitement, Forgus said.
Forgus said ticket sales for the games are running 30 to 50 percent above normal for a typical August weekday series. Typical crowds for August weekday series would be in the middle to upper 20,000s, Forgus said.
If the Reds fare well this weekend in Chicago, that should also boost crowds for the St. Louis series. Regardless, sellouts or near-sellouts seem certain.

Phoenix Suns forward Michael Beasley is under investigation for an allegation of sexual assault involving an incident on Jan. 13, 2013, Scottsdale Police confirmed Tuesday. A Scottsdale Police spokesman said the investigation is ongoing as police continue to interview those involved and process evidence to determine whether or not they will files criminal charges against Beasley, 24. Because the investigation remains open, no further details of the incident could be disclosed. Beasley signed a three-year deal with the Suns last July, and in his first season with the team he averaged 10.1 points and 3.8 rebounds per game. This is not Beasley's first run in with Scottsdale Police, as he was cited in late January for driving with a suspended license, driving with expired registration, speeding and failure to properly display a license plate on his vehicle.

The widest avenue in the world
You always hear about this very very wide avenue in Buenos Aires. This is it!
144 meters wide, it is one of the main thoroughfares in Buenos Aires. It is not very long however, just a bit over a kilometre long. It is named in honor of Argentina's Independence day..July 9, 1816.
Though it was in the planning stages for a long time, many buildings in the Constitucion area had to be demolished to make way for the avenue. Work started in 1937 and went on through the 1960's.
Do not ever think of trying to jaywalk on this avenue! If you think it is intimidating, it is! They do have volunteers that help people cross since the avenue is so busy and so wide. More often they just let you know when its safe to cross. They have bright shirts so you know who they are.
Things you will see on Avenida 9 de Julio:
-The French Embassy,- an architectural beauty for sure
- Obelisco and Plaza de la Republica.
- Teatro Colon
- Architecture
9 de Julio Avenue (or Avenida 9 de Julio, in the local tongue) in downtown Buenos Aires, Argentina, is not just any street. Nine lanes wide, with gardened medians between the opposing flow of traffic, this is the widest street in the world. Only those with a quick pace and long legs will be lucky to get to the other side before the traffic lights at the intersection changes. A pedestrian crossing this street usually requires a few extra minutes and two to three traffic light rotations. 9 de Julio Avenue is only 1 km long but 110 meters wide.
The avenue's unusual width is because it spans an entire city block, the distance between two streets in the checkerboard pattern used in Buenos Aires. The avenue runs to the west of the Río de la Plata waterfront, from the Retiro district in the north to Constitución station in the south. It has up to seven lanes in each direction and is flanked on either side by parallel streets of two lanes each.
The street runs far in both directions and connects the unique sections of the metropolis. Some of Buenos Aires' main landmarks can be seen along the way; most notably, the Obelisk, that sits in the middle of 9 de Julio, the original French Embassy, the statue of Don Quixote, the Teatro Colon and the former Ministry of Communications building - the only building that sits on the avenue itself at the intersection with Moreno street

Longest Avenue Ever!!!!
Generally when flying into a city the first thing I notice is the building and other notable landmarks but with Buenos Aries the first I noticed was a massive street cutting straight through the city. This massive avenue of course is a landmark of its own and one of the most famous in the world. Its almost ten lanes total and seemingly takes ten minutes to cross, which makes sense considering there are four different cross walks to manuever through. But 9th of July avenue serves as a great starting point for visiting all the highlights of the city, just make sure you don't get run over....seriously!
New York has 5th Ave, Paris has the Champs Elysees, well........Buenos Aires has the 9th of July avenue.....it's wonderful, large, and crowded. With some 6 lanes each way, it makes it the world's widest avenue. Take the time to walk it some, it's lined with restaurant, hotels, and some very interesting shops !!!!

Av 9 Juilio and Obelisk
Major and busy road running through the city. Walked along the pedestrianised area between the traffic heading towards the Obelisk, there are plenty of seats and at the time we visited the trees were in bloom, it was pretty pleasant!
The Widest Street in The World!
One of the world's largest avenues with up to eight lanes in total! This runs between the Constitucion and Monserrat barrios. The Obelisco meets at the intersection where the Avenida Corrientes and the Avenida de Julio meet. Another key street that runs through the busy avenue is Avenida de Mayo where you can turn either left or right for the Congreso Nacional and Plaza del Mayo. Further up north, you get to see the Teatro Colon (When I was there, in January 2010, it was closed for refurbishment).
Take care crossing the streets because the traffic lights don't stay green long!

Avenida 9 de Julio
I read that the Portenos boast that Avenida 9 de Julio is the "world's widest avenue, with a width of 460 ft. Whether it is the widest or not, this avenue provides the Portenos with a "Parisien style blvd." and is quite an impressive Avenue. The Avenue is located in the center of Buenos Aires and provides for a magnificient open space area.
At the center of the Avenue you will find the Obelisco, a needle shaped monument to mark important events in Argentinian history.

Fun Street Crossings
I have heard this is the worl'd largest street. I can believe it with its 12 lanes of traffic. Fortunately there is a large area in the cenetr to wait for the light to change and traffic to stop. While stopped in the middle take a look at the Oblisco.
The world's widest street
Locals like to tell you Avenida 9 de Julio is the world's widest street - they could be right. It's as wide as two full city blocks and has 12 traffic lanes - fortunaetly, there's a large central reserve, otherwise crossing it would be a nightmare, even so it's not an exercise for the faint-hearted
Standing 67 metres high at the junction of the 9 Julio and Avenida Corrientes, the white spear of El Obelisco is an unmistakable Buenos Aires landmark and an iconic symbol of the city. It was placed here in 1936 in celebration of some major events in the city's life - the founding of the city, raising the flag of Independence in 1812 and Buenos Aires becoming the nation's capital in 1880.
If you're walking to 9 Julio from the Congresso, take Bartolome Mitre and look out for the Pasaje la Piedad - perhaps the narrowest street in Buenos Aires. Lined with elegant houses, it has always ben a pedestrian-only precinct since it was built in the 19th century.
The exotic Moorish-inspired exterior of the Club Espanol (built in 1908) conceals an elegant restaurant that is pure Art Nouveau. Look out for it on the eastern side of the Avenida, just south of the Ave de Mayo. Despite its apparent grandness, the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the food is excellent.
The world´s widest avenue
Avenue 9 de Julio must be one of the world`s widest city streets. I certainly wouldn't like to try crossing anything bigger as crossing this was always a challenge. If you run when the lights are green you can just about make it from one side to the other before they go red. Most people stop for a break in the middle!
There are about 7 lanes in each direction on Avenue 9 Julio and it´s always full of vehicles. The avenue runs from Constituion up to Retiro and contains an obelisk at Corrientes, one of the cities best known sights. It's particularly spectacular at night and a good place to observe it all is from the walkways near Corrientes on either side of the obelisk.
a wide avenue with an obelisk!
This avenue supposed to be the widest avenue of the world with 16 lanes! In fact, it has 12 lanes but the people add the lanes of Pelligrino and Cerrito streets on the left and right of the avenue. July 9, 1816 is the independence day of Argentina. I walked through the avenue many times and it was kind of scary seeing so many cars come and go endlessly!
There are some interesting fountains, statues and shops along the avenue but the basic landmark is the Obelisk that is located at plaza de la Republica. It is known as El Obelisco and it was built in 1936 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the first founding of the city. It goes up to 67m and it was nice for me seeing it from distance, day and night! Football fans of River Plate or Boca Juniors come here to celebrate after big wins of their teams.
It takes a while to cross
? The widest avenue in the world.
Everything looks big here, the buildings, billboards and the Obelisk!
The name of this amazing avenue comes from July 9th of 1816, Independence Day of Argentina.
There are great fountains and places to sit and watch the chaos go by.

The widest avenue in the world
This is one of the most important avenues in Buenos Aires. The Obelisco, our most characteristic monument, is located there. If you walk to the east, you'll get to the French embassy, which is a beautiful building. Next to it, there's a famous mansion which was turned into a hotel. Many stars who visited the city have stayed there.
There are almost no shops here, most of the buildings are offices or embassies.
9 De Julio Avenue
This avenue is reputed to be the largest avenue in the world and is named after the date when Argentina was granted absolute independance from Spain in 1816. All I know is that it is a real pain to cross due to the amount of traffic. The avenue is about 5 km long and the actual avenue is about 12 lanes wide (I didn't count the lanes, I was too busy trying to negotiate my way across from one side to the other!). On top of that, there is a separate road running parallel on either side of the avenue that you have to get across before actually tackling the avenue itself. You should use the traffic lights to cross the street but use them with care as it seems that traffic can come from any direction and Argentinian drivers do not always allow pedestrians right of way.
However, if you walk along the avenue, you can find some quite interesting land marks, such as the Obelisk, a couple of fountains and several nice buildings (in amongst some quite run down blocks).
The Obelisk can be found on at the junction of Corrientes Avenue and was erected in 1936 to commemorate the 400-year anniversary of Pedro de Mendoza's original settlement on the banks of the Rio de la Plata. The monument is 67 metres high and marks the site where the Argentinian flag was first raised.
- Road Trip
- Architecture
Avenida 9 de Julio is reputed to be the widest avenue in the world. At one place, there are up to 9 lanes on each side, in other words, 18 lanes wide. Traffic is always busy here. You need to cross the avenue in a few stages.
The monument right smack in the middle is El Obelisco (The Obelisk) on Plaza de la Republica. This obelisk commemorates the 400th anniversary of the city's founding. This is the crux of Buenos Aires traffic as it can be viewed from various straight avenues radiating out from it, Avenida 9 de Julio, Avenida Corrientes and the Diagonal Roque Saenz Pena.
Staring up at the tip of the immense obelisk as you cross the avenue, you would somewhat Feel.The.Earth.Move.Under.Your.Feet. Or could it be from the 18 lanes of traffic on both sides that are causing the tremors?

2011 Ford Fiesta 1.4I Ambiente 5DrMileage: 24300 KMS
Body Type: Hatchback
Colour: White
Region: Gauteng
EST Price P/M: R2,395*
Ford has been selling mass-produced automobiles and light commercial vehicles worldwide for over 100 years attracting millions of loyal customers with a wide range of vehicles that offer considerable value.
Founded by Henry Ford in 1903 with 16.5 million Model Ts being sold between 1908 and 1927 during this 20-year period.
Ford was the first company to utilise the moving assembly line production process- now the standard in motor vehicle manufacturing.
In 1979, the company acquired a stake in Mazda, and the company also emerged with a new mind-set of global competitiveness.
In the mid '80s, Ford was showing new strength with its popular Escort and Taurus models while further expanding its empire with the purchase of the Aston Martin and Jaguar brands. Meanwhile, its full-size LTD sedan [later re-named the Crown Victoria] remained a staple of taxi companies and police forces throughout the USA.
The Explorer midsize SUV played a huge role in ushering in the era of the SUV. In 1999,
Ford expanded its family yet again with the purchase of Volvo's car division, and, in 2000, it acquired Land Rover.
But the new millennium initially saw a downturn for Ford.
To compensate, the company sold its other car brands [Volvo and Land Rover]and introduced a wave of successful new Ford cars for sale in South Africa: like the Figo, Fiesta, Focus, Ikon, Ecosport, Everest, Kuga, Ranger, Transit Custom and Tourneo Custom, have allowed Ford to regain its standing as a very competitive manufacturer.
A race-going version of the Ford GT will compete at Le Mans in 2016, 50 years after the original first won the classic endurance race.
Building upon the utilitarian Ranger ute we all know and love, the facelifted model in Wildtrak format adds some aggressive styling to the mix, joined by a plethora of offroading-focused technological brouhaha.
We`ve previewed the Sync 3 system, and it`s a significant improvement. Now we know where it will appear first: the 2016 Ford Fiesta and 2016 Ford Escape, starting this summer.

Panthers pass gut check
Reitz shoots 65 percent in victory
Maybe it's the way the stars align.
At least that's as good of a reason as any Michael Adams could come up with for the occasions - two or three times each year - teams at every level endure a rough stretch.
"Letdowns you can't figure out," Adams said.
That's why the Reitz coach called Friday night's 67-60 win over Memorial (5-5) a gut check. The Panthers (10-2) were at home, coming off of a Southern Indiana Athletic Conference Tournament championship. They have Westside rival Mater Dei on the schedule for today. So Adams feared the worst when his team allowed a nine-point halftime lead to morph into a one-point Tigers' lead three minutes into the third quarter.
Last season, Adams had seen his team's 6-4 start devolve into a seven-game losing streak after it lost the SIAC Tournament final. That was an inexplicable slide that included a loss to Memorial.
But if astronomy was involved Friday, it was on the Panthers' side. Reitz shot 65 percent from the field, offsetting any defensive lapses and then some.
Adams questioned his team's
fundamental defense at times, calling it a "tough game; they controlled the tempo."
Even as Adams said his team resisted faltering the way he's seen teams do before, forward Kevin King said Reitz wasn't entirely happy.
"Not pleased, but happy we got it," he said. "We could have played better defensively; we didn't communicate."
Specifically on screens, which the Tigers used to get open looks at 3-point shots, making seven of 12 in the second half.
There was no dramatic comeback for Memorial, though, even after Reitz's "horrible start to the third quarter," as Adams put it. Greg Moore finished the third frame with a 3-pointer, and added two more in the fourth as the Panthers went perfect from the field in the last quarter.
In a timeout with less than two minutes left, Tavaryus Gray was getting an earful from his coach on the Reitz sideline. He had failed to close out on defense, but more recently threw a wild alley-oop to Daimion Garrett, who was calling for the pass. The pass bounced off of the backboard, but Garrett was still able to bring it in, and lay it in.
That was 6-for-6 for the Panthers in the quarter - they only attempted free throws the rest of the way - and Garrett would finish with a game-high 27 points and 12 rebounds.
Kyle Kuric was fouled and made a 3-pointer with under a minute to go, but the shot was called no good, the foul on the floor.
Had it counted, Memorial would have been within one possession with a free throw. Kuric finished with 23 points.
Memorial was outscored 15-4 in the second quarter, but coach Rick Wilgus said he was pleased with how his team fought back in the second half, and stayed in it.
"I was concerned the last couple of games that we hadn't been giving Memorial effort," Wilgus said. "I felt they gave that tonight ... and either you're tough by February or you're never going to get tough. I thought, on the road here, the way we played, we were tough."
The victory was the 10th straight for the Panthers.

In Defence of Lars Hedegaard
The following is our response to an article on The Copenhagen Post website entitled Hedegaard lashes out following failed assassination attempt.
My organisation the International Civil Liberties Alliance (ICLA) awarded Mr Hedegaard our Defender of Freedom Award last year in the European Parliament.
Unlike many newspapers, he is willing to stand up and speak truth to power. Newspapers tend to no longer do their job of informing the public and challenging the powerful. Instead they provide a skewed ideologically driven picture of the world. Rather than report the facts they choose to demonise individuals like Mr Hedegaard and in doing so deliberately put them in danger.
Lars Hedegaard has shown willingness even to put his life on the line in the cause of freedom. How many newspaper editors can say the same thing?
ICLA supports Mr Hedegaard's call to remove the blasphemy clause. Indeed we call for the abolition of all blasphemy laws worldwide. This includes laws that are effectively blasphemy laws that are dressed in the clothes of secularism. For instance the United Kingdom abolished its blasphemy law but incorporated similar restrictions in other laws. It is the freedom to talk freely about all philosophies that needs to be protected by law. Blasphemy laws stifle freedom of speech and prevent the progressive development of our society.
Lars, we salute your bravery and your continuing commitment to freedom.

I just have to back this short and terse statement! Thank you Chris!
By Elsa on February 12th, 2013 at 10:51
Hi Chris, I second the brief comment from Hans. Thank you, Chris. Your words are so true. Every newspaper article or other media report that demonizes those who speak out for freedom of speech endangers the lives of those who risk by speaking out. If all the newspapers and other media spoke out for freedom of speech – first, there would be no need for Lars and others to speak out – and second, it would lessen the danger from those who are ready to do violence to those speaking for freedom of speech.
By Achintya Das on February 15th, 2013 at 13:49
I totally agree with Elsa whenever you raise a finger against the wrongdoing of extremist the Pseudo Secular media will not only castigate you as a racist but also they will intervene your personal life. Every country has the same scenario now. Actually free speech is now at get risk and extremist always wants to abolish free speech first when the free speech is gone its easier for them to dominate the mass, peace activist, and a country.

Nationwide, scams against seniors generate billions of dollars each year for criminals. Seniors are often targets of scam artists because they generally are more trusting of others and perceived to be easier to persuade.
According to a June 2010 survey by Investor Protection Trust, roughly 20% of seniors aged 65 and older already have been taken advantage of financially, whether through unreasonably high fees for financial services or outright fraud. Seniors often do not realize they have been the victim of a scam or may avoid telling someone for fear of losing their independence by appearing so vulnerable.
Knowledge is the best defense against these crimes. BBB Be Senior Savvy allows seniors to not only learn how to spot and avoid scams, but also offers resources that seniors can turn to if they do become a victim.
Be Aware - Be Informed - Be Proactive
BBB Be Senior Savvy offers resources to aid seniors in identifying and steering clear of scams, and makes presentations in Eastern and Southwestern Idaho, Eastern Oregon and Western Wyoming to groups of seniors and caregivers to help raise awareness of these dangers. To request someone from BBB speak with your group about marketplace issues, contact Robb Hicken at 208-342-4649 or email.

shield used by Ladder Zombies. It can be left on only defensive plants, which can be climbed over by the Ladder Zombie and other zombies, until the plant is removed. Some ways to remove it include the Magnet-shroom and explosive plants.
The ladder absorbs 25 normal damage shots and its appearance changes upon absorbing 9, 17, and 25 normal damage shots.
- For more strategies, see Ladder Zombie.
It can be destroyed with an explosive plant or it can be pulled away with a Magnet-shroom, even after it has been placed. It is imperative that it is destroyed quickly, so zombies do not take too much advantage of it. Even when the Cattail shoots a spike at the Ladder Zombie's back, the damage is dealt to the ladder. If a Tall-nut or Wall-nut in a Pumpkin has a ladder placed on it, removing the plant will remove the ladder. Sometimes, it can become an advantage when using Gloom-shrooms.
- The ladder is the only object that zombies can climb over.
- The price of the ladder according to the Ladder Zombie's Almanac Entry is a bit under-priced compared to a real ladder.
- When a zombie is slowed, it can still climb up the ladder at a normal speed.
- There is no animation when climbing the ladder.
- The ladder can only be damaged by instant kills after it is placed.
- The ladder will always appear undamaged when it is placed.
- If the player manages to spawn in a miniature Ladder Zombie, the ladder will be full-sized when placed.

OCD - Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is an anxiety based condition. The fact that Israel is a state beset with anxiety is both obvious and very sad. Decades of fighting enemies and trying to be brave, the anxiety has to come out in some way. It is unrealistic to compare Israel's need for secure statehood (as a Jewish state), to the United States or Norway - these countries do not have their existence threatened. It is also of no relevance that because other countries do not openly declare religious orientation as an identity that this does not exist. Please do not blind yourself. As the single Jewish nation in the world, Israel needs reassurance that it can have a homeland for Jewish people without being threatened. They need confidence building, empathy and support as they are pushed (quite rightly so) towards a two-state solution..

Burrowing Owl with the V3 & 70-300
Jul 2, 2014
The idea that I can hand hold a camera and lens with this much magnification and a reasonable expectation of success, just blows me away. I have a Sigma 300-800 and, while it is a great lens, it never gets too far away from the car. At 13 lbs it is too much for me to carry very far. The owls are close to home, but with a long beach weekend coming up I expect to have more targets over the weekend. Well done Nikon

Washington has placed goalie Michal Neuvirth on injured reserve with a lower-body ailment, according to the Washington Post.
Neuvirth, 25, was injured during warmup for Friday's 3-2 shootout win over Montreal. He was supposed to make the start but exited just prior to puck drop, forcing Braden Holtby into action.
Per the official roster, Michal Neuvirth (right leg) has been placed on injured reserve. #Caps

Straight, no chaser! Relocating to South Florida
I love smiling and laughing. I try to find humor and or a lesson in every experiences. I am in love with life, I accept and respect people as they are. My friends describe me as friendly, warm, business savvy, caring, honest and witty. I describe myself as a TRUE OPTIMIST! I am a traditional woman in many ways, I'm soft spoken and mild mannered but assertive when I need to be. I believe in giving back and paying it forward. Race does not matter to me. My ideal man is emotionally and financially unencumbered. I want to be #1 in your life. I am most turned on by a generous, monogamous and great providing man. This does not mean I am just looking for a sugar daddy, I want to settle down and marry this man. I am willing to relocate for HIM. I recognize that no one is perfect; we all have our faults and character flaws. Having a good relationship with the "Mother Figure" in your life is a must. Being happy with who you are and where you are in life is a plus.

Stepped-up police presence yields dozens of drug arrests
Published: Monday, July 9, 2007 at 9:15 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 9, 2007 at 9:15 p.m.
HOUMA An increased police presence by Terrebonne Narcotics Task Force agents in some of the parishs narcotics trouble spots has yielded more than 40 drug arrests in a month, police said Monday.
It was basically an operation targeting high drug areas and areas where have we have a lot of complaints of drug activity, said Maj. Mike Solet, the task force commander.
Officers arrested or issued summons to 42 suspects on a slew of drug charges including possession and distribution of marijuana, cocaine, crack cocaine and Ecstasy between June 8 and Sunday.
An additional 25 people were arrested or issued summons on other charges, including outstanding warrants, failure to pay child support, open container violations, resisting arrest, assaulting officers and motor vehicle violations, as a result of the stepped-up law enforcement effort.
Solet said the task force with the help of school resource and DARE officers reassigned to the unit for the summer targeted neighborhoods in Johnson Ridge, Smithridge, Grand Caillou and Upper Dularge, answering calls from residents for more policing.
Were just putting additional police presence in these communities, Solet said, adding that Sheriff Jerry Larpenter usually reassigns the school officers for drug duty when school lets out. He just wanted to add more manpower to address a little rise in activity for the summer And the additional manpower allowed us to address more areas than normal.

Recipe by Beef. It's What's For Dinner.
"Steak meet salad. Salad meet pizza. A tasty introduction has been made."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 pound
beef top sirloin center filets, cut 1 inch thick, tied
1 1/2 teaspoons
lemon pepper
2 cups
packed fresh baby spinach
1/4 pound
fresh mozzarella cheese, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
2 tablespoons
chopped fresh basil
1 1/2 teaspoons
balsamic vinegar
naan breads (Indian flatbread) or pita breads
I love the ingredients here but felt the balsamic needed jazzing up. Instead of using it alone, I mixed up a basic balsamic vinaigrette by adding some olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and a touch of sugar. The flavor was great. This is a wonderful healthy option for grilled steak.
I was pleasantly surprised by this recipe. I did add more seasoning to my steak (as I usually do) and I added a good sprinkle of salt & freshly ground pepper. It actually made for a tasty, light dinner with almost no effort.
6 Ratings
This was better than I thought it would be, but not as good as I had hoped. I followed to the letter, with the exception of using a balsamic glaze instead of a straight balsamic vinegar. Definitely needed that last bit of oomph to bring it over the top, but still, very, VERY good!
We really enjoyed this recipe. It took very little time together and grill, so it makes for a quick and easy weeknight meal when your short on time. I found the addition of the balsamic vinegar added a nice sweetness to the steak, off setting the lemon-pepper seasoning slightly. Like another reviewer mentioned, the addition of the balsamic does wilt the lettuce a bit and turns the mozz brown, but I waited until the steak was done before I dressed the baby spinach. The heat of the steak and naan also caused the spinach to wilt, but no-one in our house minded at all. Will definately make this again!
I didn't love this recipe. I was expecting it to be so much better. No matter how good of a brand of balsamic vinegar I have used I find it slightly tart and that the main problem is, it just turns vegetables and cheese brown in color. It appears with the topping on this it was no different. It also wilted my spinach and it sat for a very short time, while I carved the meat. The main pic for the recipe, I believe the ingredients were added in layers and not mixed together. Only change I made was using a little dry basil, as I did not have fresh. I found the basil flavor too dominant as I do fresh basil in many recipes. It just didn't come together for me and was rather time consuming for such a simple looking recipe.
