ccLearn—Features in Open Education
Lately, a virtual whirlwind of projects and people and organizations have blown our way, and we don't expect the dust to settle any time soon. To keep track of some of the progress and collaboration within open education, we've started to host bi-monthly features ranging from individual interviews to project spotlights. We hope to open your eyes and ears to what these voices in the movement have to say.
This month's feature is on "Attribution Only" as Default Policy—Otago Polytechnic on the How and Why of CC BY; this and all subsequent features will be on our home page. You can join our listserv for automatic updates on these and other ccLearn issues. And for those who like to compartmentalize, you can even sign up for a separate feed of our news blog.Comments Off on ccLearn—Features in Open Education
ccLearn Workshop at Stanford's Open Source Lab Tomorrow
ccLearn's Executive Director, Ahrash Bissell, will give a talk at Open Source Lab's fourth official workshop, a series that features various speakers promoting openness across a variety of fields. The Open Source Lab at Stanford was founded just last November, and already hosts video content from three past workshops on their site. The ccLearn workshop will be held tomorrow, April 23rd, at 3pm in the Learning Theater on campus. Ahrash will speak on:
"Open source, open content, open practices. What is "open", why is it compelling, and where is all of this heading? I will focus on recent developments in the open education movement, including the hopes, challenges, and promising advances in this international effort. We can discuss any number of things, including: the establishment of and current work at ccLearn (including a federated search project, best-practices in (CC) licensing, etc.), the Cape Town Open Education Declaration, key barriers to the implementation of open educational resources (OER) in both higher education and K-12, international efforts and coordination, technical platforms for enabling participation (OER creation, use, and adaptation), and more."
In homage to its content, the event is also open to the public—here are the details. But don't worry if you can't make it; according to co-founder Henrik Bennetsen, a video of the workshop will be available on their site later.Comments Off on ccLearn Workshop at Stanford's Open Source Lab Tomorrow
Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears–A New Online Magazine for Elementary School Teachers
Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears is the new online science magazine for K-5th grades focusing on polar issues wrought by global climate change. Developed by a host of contributors, including the Ohio State University with funding from the National Science Foundation (Research on Learning in Formal and Informal settings), the magazine will get much of its content from existing material in the National Science Digital Library. According to this article on NSDL's website, the magazine will contain a multitude of resources, including online activities, images, text, and multimedia (podcasts, videos, "even a browseable Virtual Bookshelf" with children's literature for classroom use).
The first issue is titled "A Sense of Place" and it's already up for you to browse. In addition to the resources mentioned above, this issue offers quirky animations, links to web sites, printable and foldable book versions of its articles, and to top it off—a poetry lesson plan featuring work from students in Anchorage, Alaska.
Beyond Penguins and Polar Bears will be a valuable contribution to science education for Elementary students, something that has been lacking in the past. It will cover content across five departments: In the Field: Scientists at Work, Professional Learning, Science and Literacy, Across the Curriculum, and Polar News and Notes. The magazine is headed by a great team of contributors from various organizations, signifying change towards openness in the climate of education (perhaps a positive to counteract the negative in global climate change?).

In a recent post entitled, The Digital Commons — Left Unregulated, Are We Destined for Tragedy? , they explore the potential of the open digital commons, concluding that open access is the key to avoiding, not creating, tragedy.
They also recognize ccLearn as a part of this movement. ccLearn's Executive Director, Ahrash Bissell, recently spoke with OpenEducation.net about ccLearn's and, in general, Creative Commons' relationship to net neutrality. Check out the interview here.

All contributed video material must be openly licensed (CC BY, CC BY-SA ), which means it can be copied, distributed, transmitted, and adapted by others.
There are other prizes too, which will be awarded by an international panel of judges. After you submit the prime material, the remixing stage will be announced. Remember, it's all about the best science archives. Happy gathering!Comments Off on 2008 Science Video Collection and Remix Challenge

Former corrections officer sentenced to three years for child pornography
Duane Chavez, 27, of Los Lunas, was sentenced to three years of imprisonment to be followed by 10 years of supervised release for his conviction for access with intent to view a visual depiction of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
Chavez will be required to register as a sex offender after he completes his prison sentence.
U.S. Attorney Kenneth J. Gonzales said Chavez pleaded guilty in July to knowingly accessing child pornography with the intention of viewing it between January 2011 and March 7, 2012, in Valencia County.
At the time of the offense, Chavez was employed as a prison transport officer by the New Mexico Corrections Department.
Chavez was charged as a result of an undercover investigation initiated by the New Mexico State Police in January 2012 that was aimed at identifying those who possess, receive and distribute child pornography.
The investigation revealed that an IP address subscribed to Chavez's residence was participating in the distribution of child pornography. The New Mexico Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force executed a search warrant at Chavez's residence on March 7, and seized a computer and computer-related media.
In entering his guilty plea, Chavez admitted that, while the search warrant was executed, he voluntarily participated in a recorded interview with ICAC Task Force officers during which he admitted that he used a file-sharing program to download child pornography.
Chavez also acknowledged that a forensic examination of his computer and computer-related media revealed 15 files containing child pornography, including an image of a child who has been identified as a child pornography victim and has been rescued.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Charlyn E. Rees, and was investigated by the Los Lunas Police Department, the NMSP, Homeland Security Investigations, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the New Mexico Corrections Department and the New Mexico Regional Computer Forensic Laboratory.
Chavez was charged as part of Operation Artemis, an investigative effort by federal, state and local law enforcement affiliates of the New Mexico ICAC Task Force aimed at identifying individuals throughout New Mexico involved in the distribution, receipt, and possession of child pornography through peer-to-peer file sharing programs.
In March 2012, federal, state and local law enforcement officers executed 13 unrelated federal and state search warrants at residences throughout New Mexico, and seized computers and computer-related evidence related to child pornography offenses. To date, six individuals have been charged with violating federal and state child pornography laws based on the search warrants executed as part of Operation Artemis.

This Block adds the possibility for Users to create their own URL bookmarks.
Simple but usefull, be it to set a shortcut to an administration function deep in the menu, or to have your favorite courses at your fingertip.
It's currently based on the admin_bookmarks block.
A new Version with it's own Database and Upgrade Function for previous Versions which is compatible with Moodle 2.6.x and 2.7.X is in development and expected to be available End of 2014.

- Sun, Jul 6, 2014, 1:04 AMI have it installed for test in 2.7 and I noticed that if you bookmark a page in English and change language, User Bookmarks don't change. Don't know if this is because of 2.7 or not but I figured I'd let you know.
- Wed, Sep 3, 2014, 9:54 PMHi,
Is it possible to set a default bookmark that all users get?
- Thu, Sep 4, 2014, 7:52 PMNo, Maybe in the next release.
Currently the bookmarks are stored user-specific.
- Thu, Oct 2, 2014, 2:39 AMI noticed today in both Moodle 2.6.1 and 2.7.2 that in some courses the "Bookmark this site" link does not work.
Suspecting a JavaScript issue I turned on Firebug and observed the following error:
SyntaxError: missing ) after argument list
...urse/view.php?id=2088', 'Course: Gerald's Test Course 789', 'DO7wJOuB9M', 'http:...
view.php?id=2088 (line 1, col 56)
So the problem looks to be an unescaped apostrophe in the course title that is prematurely closing a parameter, breaking the script.
I have fixed this on my beta site by replacing line 165 in block_user_bookmarks.php
$bookmarktitle = $PAGE->title;
$bookmarktitle = addslashes($PAGE->title);
This fixes the problem by escaping quotes and apostrophes in the course title.
- Thu, Oct 2, 2014, 2:24 PMThanks for the Feedback Gerald i will Test and implement it in the next Version,
The current Version here is not intended for 2.6. You can check out the Version at Github or wait untill the 19.10, when I will release a completely new Version with it's own databasetables.
(since the current solutation has not just a limitations on the amount of links one user can theoretically create but also a high probability for running into Problems with non ASCI characters on Multilingual environements, mainly ones with Asian Characters)
- Sat, Oct 11, 2014, 7:40 AMThis is a great module. Any chance you could add the option to re-arrange links and import/export.
- Mon, Oct 13, 2014, 2:08 PMIt's planed for the next Version (Release Date 19.10.2014)
I was also thinking about a bookmarkexport / Import with Firefox, but that's something for a November or december release
- Thu, Nov 13, 2014, 9:12 PMHello! Whenever I try to bookmark a course main page that uses a format such as the Grid format or the TabTopics format, I can't create the bookmark because there is a yui code embedded in the link.
Click me to create a bookmark
You can see it in the example above after "id=" in the link.
With other formats, I do not see that yui code and can create the bookmark with no problem. Do you have any advice here?
- Thu, Jan 22, 2015, 2:25 AMHi Jonas,
Thanks for the reply, hows development coming along? I've had to uninstall this plugin for now, it was causing a few errors in 2.8. I'm missing it quite a bit :p
- Tue, Feb 3, 2015, 8:30 PMSorry to all that have been waiting for a new release in December.
I didn't have the time to test it and the next release is supposed to fix all the Problems as automatic as possible.
- Tue, Feb 3, 2015, 8:31 PMAlso there was the release of 2.8, so I have to fix some things for this Version too.
- Fri, Mar 27, 2015, 3:06 AMHi, I tried to install you plugin:
(https://github.com/BBZ-ICT/moodle-user_bookmarks, moodle 2.7)
in a moodle 2.8 but i got this error "Fatal error: Call to undefined function xmldb_block_user_bookmarks_upgrade() in /home/develtel/public_html/training/lib/upgradelib.php on line 897"
Please, may you help me to fix this issue?
Thanks in advance
- Fri, Jun 26, 2015, 10:31 PMHi Jonas,
Hows the update coming along ;p
This plugin was so handy!
- Fri, Jun 26, 2015, 11:48 PM... about A Year late at best.
Sorry was too busy with other Projects and no one Sponsoring my work.
I have a working local build, but no time to test it on 2.8 and 2.9.
are you applying as Betatester?
If I find time I'll finish a refactored release which will really be usefull
- Sat, Jul 11, 2015, 8:43 AMHi Jonas, I would love to test the block on 2.9

Plan is nothing, planning is everything.
- Dwight D. Eisenhower
var zipCode = order.Customer.Address.ZipCode;
Hiding the List<T>.
Usually people look at this and say it's crazy, we cannot proxy everything! If we expose a generic list of monkeys there's no way we would put MonkeyCount property
instead of using monkeys.Count.
That's correct - List<T> will never give up its Count property. However, exposing List<T> means changing it to something else would be a job of work after it is accessed in 70 places all over the codebase and some methods grab your list and modify it directly, and then you'll have to rewrite 'em all to get their dirty paws off your data.
Next, if you'd need anything else in monkeys.Add(monkey) - validation, eh? - anyway you'd have to eventually hide the list and use AddMonkey and RemoveMonkey instead. By starting down that route from the very beginning, you just save time (and you'll probably have to expose just a few methods of the original list: add, remove, count and removeAll should be enough in most cases).
The Law of Demeter for functions.
The Law of Demeter for functions states that any method of an object should call only methods (and access only properties) belonging to:
class Demeter
private PrivateField _myField;
public void MyMethod() { ... }
public void Test(Parameter methodParameter)
MyMethod(); //(1) method from the same class
methodParameter.Foo(); //(2) method from a parameter passed in
var local = new Local();
local.Boo(); //(3) method from a local object we created
_myField.Bar(); //(4) method from a directly held instance
To nail down, here go a few snippets, inspired by a top notch book The Pragmatic Programmer. Tell if the code below is ok from The Law of Demeter point of view:
bool AddProduct(Product product)
var supplier = product.Supplier;
if (supplier.IsShipSupported(_myCity)) {
return true;
return false;
The answer (select with your mouse): product is passed as a parameter, so access to Supplier property is fine. Calling IsShipSupported, however, is not: we neither create supplier nor get it as a parameter, so we cannot access it's methods and properties. To fix that, we could have created an IsShippable method on Product type.
Another example, look if the code below is ok from The Law of Demeter point of view:
class Brain
private Analyzer _analyzer = new Analyzer();
public void Think(Idea idea)
Instead of digging
through the hierarchy, you can add a property ZipCode on Order type, which in turn would simply delegate the call to ZipCode property of Customer, which in turn would call ZipCode of Address.
It is easy to get into the trap and start adding all those wrappers - and if you do, your classes can become a mess with no cohesive API. And, well, okay, method chaining is a code smell, but the types bloated with forwarding methods is also a smell, correct?
The Law of Demeter is not about egalitarian wrapping of method calls, and that's why an automated refactoring tool would not help you. As mentioned above, if you shield a List<T> you'd probably be ok with exposing add, remove, clearall and count: no need to expose everything. However, I wouldn't recommend creating zip code proxies for the types in the original example.
It is all about deciding when to tell a method to do something vs. when to ask it for data and do the job yourself.
Where to go from here.
Usually, a peer review would help to identify if a violation is acceptable, or a proxy method is needed, or a completely different solution would work out (say, the VisitorPattern: if you have to do something to an object X at the end of a long chain, have a Visitor look for X with the collaboration of all involved items).
So let me put it this way: you can violate the Law of Demeter but there should be a reason for that. I still believe the Law of Demeter for functions
provides a powerful and easy way to spot design problems, something
you cannot just shrug off. When it comes down to properties, it gets
different, because of that "tell vs. ask" dilemma.

Backbone provider Global Crossing, which previously peered from Atrivo/Intercage, More on Atrivo-Intercage-Estdomains, has negated the decision by transit provider UnitedLayer to give Intercage upstream service.
"It has come to our attention that United Layer is now routing traffic for Intercage (AS 27595) over the Global Crossing network," Andrew Ramsey, Global Crossing's manager of information security operations, wrote in an email sent to UniterLayer on Wednesday morning. "Intercage was removed from our network for violating our acceptable use policy, and is not welcome to return under any circumstance."
The Register: Net pariah Intercage back among the dead
Robert McMillan, IDG News Service.
After being notified of more problems on the network this week, UnitedLayer pulled the plug on Intercage late Thursday afternoon, said UnitedLayer Chief Operating Officer Richard Donaldson. "We decided that, given the stuff that was going on and with a couple of infractions that we were made aware of, that they needed to purge themselves of any [malicious] stuff that remained," he said.

Hat Tip to Sandi at Spyware Sucks: Atrivo/Intercage have been knocked offline again?
The Report for AS27595 remains as it was before UnitedLayer became Intercage's provider.

"I for one was surprised." admitted Leo Laporte, a long time friend and host of the podcast This Week in Tech, on which Dvorak.org/blog is a frequent guest. "I'm usually pretty up on these things and I gotta tell you, it me sent for a bit of a loop. John…I mean Dvorak.org/blog is a really good friend, but I just didn't see it coming. It makes sense though, if you think about it. Dvorak.org/blog's internet presence is as big as his physical one, so I makes sense just to merge the two."
"This is the first time on record that a person has taken a URL as a name. As far as I can tell." Said City Clerk Nuttly. "I think it's a little kooky, but who am I to say what is crazy. Heck, I'm so out of touch I thought Cannon was going to keep making small cameras forever. Never can tell really..."
Dvorak.org/blog spoke to a throng of reporters this morning and explained why he made the change.
"I'm lazy." Said Dvorak.org/blog. " I just got tired of saying 'Hi gorgeous I'm John C. Dvorak and you can read my blog at Dvorak.org/blog.' Now all I have to say is 'Hi gorgeous name is Dvorak.org/blog' it really cuts down on a lot of wasteful verbiage. I can't tell you how much more I can get done with the time I've saved. I've even been able to fire half my staff, because of the time I now have to actually do some writing myself. I gotta tell you… it's liberating."
Experts have not been able to come to agreement on whether this will start a major trend. "It's kind of like the computer mouse. When the mouse first came out the people who knew anything about anything thought it wouldn't go anywhere." Says Patrick Norton, a friend of Dvorak.org/blog. " Dvorak.org/blog has always been out front, I guess only time will tell if anybody is following him."

Sen. Ben Nelson, D-Neb., raised $443,000 during the third quarter, his campaign announced on Friday. That's less than half of what he brought in last quarter.
His report also means that barring a surprisingly strong showing from Republican state Treasurer Don Stenberg or any of the lower tier candidates, Attorney General Jon Bruning, the GOP frontrunner, is the surprise winner of the third quarter money chase in Nebraska.
Bruning's numbers were not eye-popping -- he raised about $583,000 -- but marked an improvement from prior lackluster quarters.
Nelson still sports a seven-figure cash on hand advantage. He finished the period with $3.1 million in the bank while Bruning wrapped up with $1.59 million cash on hand. Last quarter, Nelson raised $910,000.

Photos of Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen at the UK Premiere of Bruno
Sacha Baron Cohen Leads Another Bruno Parade
by Celebrity
Like us on Facebook
Sacha Baron Cohen rocked another skimpy outfit to imitate the Queen's guard for the UK premiere of Bruno earlier today. As usual, Isla didn't pose with her man, but she still showed her support out on the personalized red carpet. The movie doesn't open in the states until July 10, which means we still have a few weeks of Sacha's shameless — often clothes-free — appearances and wacky antics to look forward to.

Isla is just very average actress. Being with Ali G or Borat or Bruno or whoever else he is at the moment is her meal ticket. Having a kid with him is her another meal ticket.She 's only on gossip sites when being photographed with her daughter. Herself she has not much to offer. And yes, #13 you said it exactly how it is. It's kind of sad for her but it is true indeed.

So Isla is used to putting up with his silly characters, she knew getting with him he would do this, but I think they're cute together. And she's super cute! so is little Olive :)

She'll probably never get another one. She's lucky to be able still stuff herself into a tight dress and walk the red carpet with him. Otherwise, who would still be interested in her? He, on the other hand,has years of career ahead of him--with or without her. No wonder she's stayed with him through a seven "engagement" despite his not committing.

They are such an unlikely couple to me. Anyway, I love Isla I think she's so cute.
Allyace 6 years
I like quirky humor and I'm definitely not a prude when it comes to jokes, but Borat was one of the worst movies I have ever seen in my entire life and wasn't remotely funny. I'll be sitting Bruno out entirely.
MartiniLush 6 years
Isla is darling. Not sure what she sees in Sasha, however....
CheapYetChic 6 years
I am sure she appreciates his humor, or she wouldn't be engaged to him. However, I would think she must sometimes shake her head and think, "here we go again!"

We've actually ordered these twice for the same client. The first time, InkHead got us out of a huge bind after ordering from a different company and the other company's completed product was less than satisfactory. InkHead did a FANTASTIC job, were less expensive, and customer service went above and beyond the call of duty to help us in what could have been a bad situation.

Letters to the Editor: 11.04.12
Cassidy Talley
Voters: Study your candidates
Last week I went with my mom to early voting. We went to one place and the line to vote was hours long so we went to another place. The line was still very long, but she waited.
It made me proud to see the long lines of people voting. As Americans it is our job to vote and as a 17-year-old who is unable to vote in this election I do not understand people who are of age, yet still do not vote.
Don't you want to do your part and make your voice heard? And for those people who are voting, I hope they are, as my government teacher always says, educated voters.
What if you vote for someone not knowing much about them and later realize that the other candidate shared more of your values? Then what will you do? Wait for the next election to vote for your "right candidate"?
Do not waste your vote this election.
If you are waiting for election day to vote, I encourage you to know who you are voting for, why you are voting for them and get out and vote!
Peter M. Davidson, Corpus Christi Marina superintendent

Aug. 12, 2009
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - University of New Mexico sophomore James Aho was one of 30 players named to the 2009 preseason watch list for the Lou Groza Award, which is presented annually to the top kicker in the FBS (Division I). Aho - the top returning field goal kicker in the Mountain West Conference - was one of two MWC players selected to the watch list along with TCU sophomore Ross Evans. The two are among eight sophomores on the list.
After walking on to the team in the spring of 2008 Aho went on to turn in the most productive freshman season ever by a Lobo kicker. The Roswell, N.M. product connected on a UNM freshman record 18 of 24 field goals, ranking 19th nationally with 1.5 field goals per game.
Aho had four multiple field goal games and provided the winning margin for two Lobo victories with an Mountain West record 18 points vs. Arizona (5-5 FGs) and 11 at New Mexico State (3-3 FGs). Both performances earned him MWC Special Teams Player of the Week accolades, while the five field goals in New Mexico's upset of Arizona tied a school and conference record. He became the first Lobo kicker ever to hit four field goals of 40 yards or more in the win over the Wildcats.
More than three hundred media representatives, coaches, past recipients, conference and university officials make up the voting panel which selects the recipient of the Lou Groza Collegiate Place Kicking Award. The Award will be presented on Dec. 10, 2009, as part of the ESPN Home Depot College Football Awards program. The three finalists will be honored at the 18th annual Lou Groza Award Banquet to be held at the Kravis Center in West Palm Beach, Florida on Tuesday Dec. 8.

SAC Tournament here to stay
Since 2009, McNair Field has played host to the South Atlantic Conference baseball tournament. What was originally a short-term, one-year relationship, has now been extended another three years as the Forest City Owls and the SAC reached an extension agreement.
"The success of this tournament is a win-win for us and the Owls," SAC Commissioner Patrick Britz said. "We both benefit from it. As a conference we benefit because our student athletes and our fans have all commented about what a great experience it is when they come to [Forest City]. [Fans] are made to feel welcome and fell like it's a special event"
The SAC is comprised of nine church-affiliated Division ll colleges in North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee.
Forest City offers a neutral site that's easily accessible for all nine schools and their fans. Before 2009, the tournament site rotated between the schools.
"Neutral sites seem to be more of a championship feel," Britz said. "And most schools are within 3-3.5 hours. Our initial agreement was a one or two-year deal and it's gone really well especially since Jeremy [Boler] has come in. It's really something that's grown on us."
"They wanted a neutral site where they could be proud to hold their tournament and fit the travel needs of their schools and McNair fit perfectly," said Boler, general manager of the Owls.
All six teams participating in this year's tournament are shacking up in area hotels and packing local restaurants.
"All three hotels, the Quality Inn, Baymont Inn and Holiday Inn are sold out," Boler said. "It's a great economic input on the long run."
Aside from being a plus for Rutherford County, the Owls benefit from the event.
"It allows us to test new food items but more importantly it gets the ballpark used," Boler said. "Having these events and bringing tournaments like this here makes our sponsors happy."
The tournament wraps up today at McNair Field.

They want to protect you from becoming a victim. The Secret Service says crooks are taking every opportunity to get rid of funny money and get real cash for change. There are ways to make sure the cash is real. One way is to touch it, as money has a distinct texture. Also, you can buy a special pen to mark the bill to determine whether it's fake.

Devil Bat Diary
Devil Bat Diary by Peter H Brothers
Inspired by the famous 1940 Bela Lugosi film, "Devil Bat Diary" tells the "true" story of what "really happened" to the unhappy citizens of Heathville, Illinois, during that terrible prewar summer as recorded in the long-suppressed journals of Chicago City Register's principal newspaper correspondent, "Johnny" Layton.The Devil Bats were furiously furry fiends created by a scientific genius who believes himself wrongfully relegated to concocting perfumes and colognes which he despises for wages not worth mentioning here. So, as a means to an embittered end, he manufactures an evil ointment with a scent that so infuriates his giant bats to such an extent they feel compelled to tear the throats out of their unsuspecting victims."Devil Bat Diary" is a an embellishment of the characters, plot and storyline taken from the public domain film that tells the full inside story of what took place in ways not possible to show to Production Code audiences back then.

Time Flies
Remember when you were a kid and counting down to Christmas or your birthday, time seemed to drag on and on, if not stop altogether. Your parents would try to console you and say "as you get older time passes faster". What nonsense?! We didn't believe them. But then, you got older (and wiser I hope) and all of a sudden days, weeks and years are flashing by. This is a truth we all face as the years pass by. And so it is with the passing of time that I reflect on my own recent history.
Twelve months ago I returned to writing. Rediscovering how much I enjoy the creative outlet. Six months later after receiving much cajoling, support and encouragement I released my debut title "Vampires Revealed." Slowly but surely it is acquiring readers and fans.
Four years ago I set out to establish a boutique style entertainment agency. Starting with only a few entertainers and nothing more than my own skills and desire. It has been a long journey, but it too has slowly grow into something wonderful.
So here I sit, looking back on my accomplishments (and failures), wondering how on Earth I am going to find the time to keep up with everything.
I have an incomplete draft of my second book and a business expansion plan sitting on the back burner. There just isn't enough hours in the day for me to get everything done. Is it any wonder high profile celebrities and the fabulously wealthy have an entourage of personal assistants. Sometimes there is just too much for one person to cope with.
"Time management and delegation" I hear you say. Yes these things are very important.
While I sit in my home office pondering how to prioritise the seemingly endless list of things to be done remember…Don't bite off more than you can chew and always take time out just for you.

Ironcompany® Single Leg Squat Stand - Have you ever used a typical gym bench to rest your foot while performing a single leg squat? The typical complaint is that the rear foot is not comfortable on the bench, or that the bench is not stable. Now you can perform single leg exercises comfortably and safely with the Single Leg Squat Stand.
The Single Leg Squat Station is a versatile and durable piece of equipment that can be used for a variety of single leg exercises such as Single Leg Bench Squats, Single Leg Shoulder Press, and Feet Elevated Hip Thrusters. Use this leg developer for all single-leg exercises when working out your hamstrings, glutes, quads and lower back. The base of the Single Leg Squat Platform is conveniently notched out to allow for placement of a foam pad (sold separately) - your knees with appreciate this feature! This effective quad blaster and glute trainer is a great addition to any home gym, garage gym, high school weight room, or commercial gym.
Workout Recommendation:
The most popular single-leg exercise is the Single Leg Bench Squat, also called the Single Leg Knee Tap Squat or Rear Foot Elevated Split Squat. It's a very effective exercise for developing quadriceps, hamstrings and glutes. Single Leg Bench Squats promote better balance, flexibility, coordination and speed for running and other athletic activities. They work most major muscle groups in the lower body and encourage greater core strength. The lower body exercise can be done without weights or with dumbbells, a weight bar, or even a weighted vest. Simply place one foot behind you on top of the elevated roller pad, and the other leg extended in front of you on the ground, or using an aerobic step platform for greater squat depth. Slowly squat down, keeping your weight-bearing foot flat. Tap your knee lightly on the ground, or floor pad if you are using one, before reversing the motion upward. It is best to perform all repetitions on the same side before switching legs.

Being a member of Freemasonry is a way of life, founded on a belief in God, honor, compassion, loyalty and trust. Freemasonry is an ancient order, having existed in some form for so long that many scholars differ as to the time and place of its origin. Masons were free men of that time and built the great cathedrals and temples and have ascended to become one of the largest fraternities in the world.
To better understand the nature of our organization, we use five words, all beginning with an "F" sound, to explain what it is all about.
Freemasonry is believed to be the oldest and largest fraternity in the World. A bond among men of good will and common interests.

Get Me To The Show On Time!
The lullaby of Broadway is turning into more of a mid-evening serenade. Performance times for theater and classical music are shifting, and getting earlier all the time. According to the Philadelphia Inquirer's David Patrick Stearns, it's not just a matter of time slots. It's a lot about us - and technology.

Calhoun Community College Theatre is an accredited two-year program offering an associate's degree in theatre. Courses may also be taken as electives by non-majors.
You'll find our graduates in four-year institutions, graduate schools, and even the professional ranks of stage and film. But we are just as proud of those who have pursued other fields, for we believe that theatrical training, with its emphasis on teamwork, preparation, and presentation, teaches and motivates students to excel in any career.
Each year Calhoun Theatre presents three plays, including one Shakespeare. Our goals have always been to produce the highest quality plays; to give each of our students the opportunity to participate; and to entertain and educate our audiences, especially students in middle school, high school, and college.
Our Shakespeare For Schools and Theatre Outreach programs offer special performances for schools, senior citizens, and other groups in the Calhoun service area. We also provide learning and teaching aids, lectures, and discussion groups.
All Calhoun plays are presented in our Black Box Theatre. Although this unique performing space permits a variety of staging configurations, it normally places audience members on opposite sides of the stage, thereby offering the intimacy of theatre-in-the-round while retaining full set-building capability. A play at Calhoun is an experience like no other.

This happened around October of 2009. I believed that my Macbook was gone for good...but that turned out not to be the case.
Because just today, I randomly tried to insert an extra hard drive to see if the original hard drive was causing the problem. But the extra was too big and didn't fit. So I put the battery back in, but before I did, I accidentally hit a small button on the battery, and one green light (out of five green lights) on the battery went on. So right away I put the battery back in, and turned on the computer right away to see what would happen. And it pretty much magically booted up, no issue whatsoever. It's alive!!!!!
But I'm afraid these issues are going to happen again. Questions I have:
1) Has anyone else had the problems I have had with their Macbook?
2) What is that little button on the battery for, and what does it mean when one out of five green lights on the battery is on?
3) Just what the heck did I do that happened to fix my Macbook, and how can I ensure these problems won't occur again?
Thank you very much,

What did you do to fix your MacBook? Hard to say.... you may have an intermittent problem that will rear its ugly head again. It does sound as if you may have had some problems with the hard drive or perhaps something more serious.
Just keep using the machine - and make frequent backups - If and when it goes out again, post back and we'll take another look at it.

VIP CLUB Chalet Chateau, Alpe D'Huez
- Mumsnet Reviews
- More Information
Your Reviews
"Fabulous family experience in the Alps…"
We actually stayed in the resort on a Summer break, my first experience of being in a 'ski' resort without there being snow.
The Chalet was beautiful, a huge roomy 7 bedroom chalet with a sauna and hot tub to relax in at the end of the day. It is catered for breakfast and 3 course evening meal with wine and we thoroughly enjoyed the company of the delightful staff and quality of the food supplied.
We have 2 young toddlers and they had supplied age appropriate toys and were very accommodating to any requests we had.
There is a wealth of things to do in the area, we swam in the Alpine lake, went tobogganing, took the lifts up over the mountains and visited another local town,. We also drove down to Vizille to see the 17th century Chateau, museum of the French revolution and the divine gardens. We really had a fabulous time.
I imagine that it would be the perfect holiday with older children or teenagers too. There are lots of activities like mountain biking and white water rafting that looked like a lot of fun.
We will definitely use VIP Ski for future holidays, we are already planning a ski trip next year!Read moreLess

Mining Product: MFIRE
Original creation date: September 1977
IMPORTANT: If you have downloaded version 3.0 of MFIRE, download version 3.0.20. Two unit conversion bugs were found and have been corrected in version 3.0.20.
MFIRE is a software program for modeling fire and contaminant spread.
This is an updated version of the DOS-based MFIRE program originally developed by the U.S. Bureau of Mines. It has been completely rewritten in C++ and packaged into a dynamic link library (DLL). The benefits of this restructuring include:
- Ease of future maintainability and improvement using object-oriented C++.
- Ventilation network data is obtained via common memory instead of the standard MFIRE data output files.
- The MFIRE DLL can be easily used by other programs.
In addition, MFIRE 3.0.20 has been restructured to run as a discrete event simulation and now allows user control of execution time. A simple graphical user interface is provided to demonstrate the functions available through the new MFIRE DLL. Extensive documentation on the use and structure of the MFIRE DLL is provided in the built-in help of the simple GUI.
Changes for version 3.0.20:
- Two units coversion errors were corrected in MFireConvert.h
NOTE: Thanks to Dewald Steyn for identifying and reporting this unit conversion error.
- About dialog for TestApp updated
- Disclaimer text in TestApp and install program updated.
Download the ZIP archive, unpack into a temporary folder and run setup.exe.
Source files for both the simple graphical user interface and the MFIRE library are also available upon request.
