The way banks and financial institutions loan money may appear simple to Carbon County residents.
In its basic form, the practice is. But there are numerous nuances thrown into the mix that complicate lending and finance.
In the last year, housing markets in many places in the country have crashed because of the types of loans consumers have taken out on property.
Before the crash, home ownership across the United States slightly exceeded 70 percent. Traditionally, the level has been 60 percent or less.
A significant portion of 10 percent increase was due to new lending vehicles devised by financial institutions and the fact that many consumers were buying houses on speculation or the belief they could make money on the dwellings.
The problem with the market arose when property values started to fall and many consumers owed more than the homes were worth because they had made the purchases without putting money down on houses.
Speculation in the real estate market is not a new concept.
At one time, homes were primarily purchased because people needed a place to live. During long periods like 10 or 20 years, people living in the houses gained equity in the residential property. Some consumers could see that buying homes and holding onto the private residents for a period of time was a profitable venture.
The problem in the last few years was the idea of flipping or selling homes shortly after the houses were purchased for a profit.
In some areas of the country, home inflation was growing so fast that new types of financial transactions were taking place.
"We have an employee here who recently came to us from the Phoenix area," said Errol Holt, manager of Zions Bank in Price. "He told me that while working in banking there, the companies had actually come up with paperless mortgages because some houses were sold within a month before paperwork could even be completed."
But when the inflation bubble started to collapse, people holding a number of homes were being stuck with the properties, unable to make the payments and sell the houses for what they owed.
Also caught in the downward spiral were the regular homeowners who had purchased houses with what was called sub-prime mortgages.
Sub-prime mortgages were given to people with questionable credit or an inability to make payments from the amount of money the individuals actually made.
Some of the loans were made so that the consumers' payments would be low for a while, then balloon at some point to make up for the years of low payments.
The financial practice focuse on the hopes that consumers with the loans would improve their earning power.
Other loans were based on flexible interest levels that change depending on the standing rate charged by the mortgage companies at any one time.
Thus, the consumers' loan payments went up and down based on rates.
One questionable method used to loan money to people was for underwriters to take stated earnings as the basis for consumers being able to manage mortgage payments.
Purchasers who did not have adequate incomes to get into the houses they wanted with traditional loans may have viewed the practice as a favor to them. But in the long run, it hurt many home buyers.
Using basic standards for debt to income ratios went out the door with many lenders. Therefore, people ended up with payments registering at 50 percent or more of what their household incomes actually were.
In a growth market, some of the consumers could handle the situation for awhile. But when the market declined and jobs were lost, the financial drain became a nightmare.
Falling real estate values in many major markets and high fuel costs which have led to increased prices on almost everything consumers buy have compounded the financial situation.
And for many people, the ability to borrow money to do what they have always done has fallen apart.
Many financial institutions have frozen credit card limits. Companies have even fixed or taken away home equity lines of credit which many people used to rely on if they fell into some kind of personal crunch.
Financial institutions lend money to make money. Loan revenues go into the economy. But once in the economy, the money has more power than the original amount of the loans.
At a savings institution, loaned money comes directly from consumer deposits depending upon established policies.
However, many banks currently in trouble borrowed money from other financial institutions to make loans to applicants.
When things went south, the banks were stuck with loans that weren't being paid. The banks also owed money to other financial entities.
"It's all about capital and the availability of capital," said Holt. "In our case, we concentrate on deposits rather than on borrowing money to loan."
Many financially sound banks do the same thing.
But not all banks and financial institutions follow the same practices or operate in the same sphere of influence.

In his fourth season on the Creighton coaching staff, David "Digger" Hawkins joined the Bluejay program prior to the 2010 season. Hawkins is primarily responsible for working with attackers. A 12-year coaching veteran, Hawkins also serves as the Director of Coaching at the Gretna Soccer Club and as a staff member for the Nebraska Olympic Development Program (ODP).
Hawkins' impact on the Jays was felt immediately as in his first season (2010) Creighton posted the second-best offensive output in school history with 50 goals.
A native of Portsmouth, England, Hawkins' coaching career began in 2002 as a volunteer for the Portsmouth youth teams. After coaching in England for three years, he relocated to Nebraska as a professional trainer at the Gretna Soccer Club in 2005. Hawkins spent the next four years working with the Gretna Soccer Club, both as a coach and a professional trainer. He also began working with the ODP, making history by becoming the first Nebraska coach to win the Region II ODP Championship in July 2008. Later the same year, he went on to win the 2008 Nebraska Girls Competitive Coach of the Year.
In May of 2009, Hawkins was promoted to the Director of Coaching and helped lead the program to the Nebraska Soccer League Premier Division championship. During his four years in that position, 15 Gretna teams won the NSL Premier Division and a Gretna team (Shockers) won the Nebraska State Cup Final for the first time in 2011.
Hawkins was instrumental in the development of several athletes who went on to earn Division I scholarships to schools such as: Creighton, Iowa State, Loyola, Missouri State, Nebraska, North Carolina, Northern Illinois, Notre Dame, Omaha, South Dakota, South Dakota State, Stanford and UMKC.
Hawkins owns several coaching licenses from the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA), the United States Soccer Federation (USSF) and the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA).
A well-established coach, Hawkins has established a branded set of soccer camps throughout the Omaha area including; Gretna Soccer Summer Camp, College Camp, Premier Footwork Academy, Striker Camp, Taste of Pre-Season Camp and Winter Academy.
In addition to his coaching accomplishments, Hawkins was an extraordinarily talented player growing up in England. Hawkins' professional career began at the age of nine, playing for Coventry City. Hawkins left Coventry City at the age of 11, moving to Portsmouth. At the age of 13, Hawkins signed a Youth Training Scheme and professional contract with Portsmouth FC. He progressed through the youth ranks to the reserve team and eventually the first team. Unfortunately, a stress fracture to his back brought an end to his playing career in 2001.He then went on to receive an undergraduate degree in sports studies at the University of Chichester in 2002 and a master's degree in information systems at the University of Portsmouth in 2003. A love of soccer runs throughout the Hawkins family, Digger's brother, Lee, owns an Asian Soccer Academy in Jakarta, Indonesia and his brother, Ben, is a coach at the Gretna Soccer Club. In addition, Hawkins' great uncle (Reg Flewin) was the last Portsmouth captain to hold the English Championship aloft in 1950. Erickson on Hawkins: "Digger is a true asset to our staff. I have watched him develop as a coach locally and now with our program," said Erickson. "He is constantly working to get better at his craft, has a great eye for talent and he teaches the game with great enthusiasm and passion."

yeah so obvious that its not working whether you agree with it or not, but still they persist with the no voting.
why isnt it working? because its boring playing the same 3 maps for a month, maybe make it for a fortnight or double the amount of maps per month.
ok ids/zenimax idea of advertising ingame didnt work for them, either did their advertising of quakelive or lack of it.
so they penalise the original player base who were used to voting any map they wanted hoping to up their subscriptions, it isnt working and people dont like things taken away from them which they originaly had.
btw i originaly had a subscription, but im not getting another (which is cheap) because its simply not worth it, and i'm pissed off basicly lol.

This fix is ridiculous. The problem is, that people how make decision regarding evolution of quake live are not players themselves.
I believe there are much more ways to earn moneys making game more competitive, ratings, tournaments etc
o killed nobody i just avoid to smile (FFA)

A Hogansburg man was sentenced Thursday to 6˝ years in federal prison for his role in an oxycodone trafficking ring.
Travis R. Adams, age not available, also was ordered in U.S. District Court, Plattsburgh, to undergo three additional years of supervision upon his release from prison after pleading guilty June 19 to conspiracy to possess with the intent to distribute and conspiracy to distribute a controlled substance.
According to a plea agreement filed with the court, Mr. Adams admitted that from at least April 2012 until July 2012, he was associated with a drug trafficking organization distributing large quantities of oxycodone to drug users in and around the St. Regis Mohawk Reservation.
In about April 2012, codefendant James Labarr provided Mr. Adams with the name and contact information of an oxycodone supplier in Cornwall, Ontario. Thereafter, Mr. Adams and an unnamed co-conspirator began coordinating with the source of the supply to purchase large quantities of the drug, with Mr. Adams typically obtaining at least 400 80 mg pills per month, according to the agreement. Mr. Adams then would redistribute those tablets to drug users on the reservation and in the surrounding area.
On July 12, 2012, codefendant Carrie Lazore ordered 30 pills from Mr. Adams, and as he attempted to deliver them at a Hogansburg gas station, law enforcement officers interceded. According to a plea agreement filed in Ms. Lazores case, an undercover Department of Homeland Security special agent was with her at the time of the transaction.
Ms. Lazore pleaded guilty to her role in the conspiracy in November 2012 and is due to be sentenced April 24. Mr. Labarr pleaded guilty March 20 and is scheduled to be sentenced July 14, while Teri Jo Lazore pleaded guilty in May 2012 and is awaiting sentence April 24. Todd Edwards pleaded guilty Oct. 13 and was sentenced Feb. 28 to just under five years in prison. Charges against Evan Adams remain pending.

WBIR - On Wednesday, President Barack Obama took his State of the Union message on the road.
He called for stronger bipartisan cooperation especially as congress works to cut a deal on taxes and spending to avoid drastic spending cuts.
He began a three city tour, touting his new initiatives that focus on the middle class, in Asheville, North Carolina.
He hammered that point home in Asheville, where he met with workers at Linamar Corporation, a successful auto plant.
He said America needs a smarter government, not a bigger one, and he's hoping investments in American businesses like Linamar will help the middle class and the U.S.
"Our middle class, when it's growing, when it's thriving, when there are ladders of opportunity for people to do a little bit better each year and make sure that their kids are doing even better than them. That is the American dream. That's what we gotta fight for," he said.
The president travels to Atlanta Thursday and then to Chicago on Friday to talk more about his proposals.

Comments about Aquarian Hi-Frequency Drumhead Black:
My toms were dead with the heads I had on before. I needed a thin bottom head to get the full resonance from my Ludwigs. Everything I was looking for and more! Although the ad reads black I was able to drop down and select clear, and that's what I received. I was a little concerned till I opened the box.

Since the late 1960s, there have been serious concerns among policymakers and the public about the overrepresentation of African-American students in special education. The National Research Council published a report in 2002 that shows more than 14% of African-American students are in special education compared with 13% American Indians, 12% whites, 11% Hispanics, and 5% Asian Americans. The disparities are greatest in categories with the greatest stigma: 2.6% of black students are identified as mentally retarded compared with 1.2% white students.
While the primary focus of public concern continues to be on minorities, disproportional representation in special education can also occur based on: income, native language and cultural or other demographic characteristics. More recently, attention has also focused on groups that are underrepresented in special education, such as females.
The 1997 reauthorization of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) attempted to address the disproportionate special education enrollment for students in specific racial or ethnic groups. In particular, IDEA mandated new state minority enrollment reporting requirements. If a significantly disproportionate number of minorities are enrolled in special education, then states are to review and revise their policies, procedures and practices for identifying and placing students.
To determine what constitutes a "significantly disproportionate number," states use a variety of methods, including statistical tests and percentage point discrepancy formulas. Statistical tests help determine if variations are due to chance. Percentage point discrepancy formulas help determine if the number of minority students placed in special education is out of proportion to the percentage of the total student population. For example, if African American students make up 12% of the total student population but account for 30% of special education students, this would likely indicate an overidentification problem. For more information on how states use discrepancy formulas, click here.
Where problems are found to exist, states are pursuing several policy options. These include teacher awareness training, examinations of how students are identified for special education, increased and improved monitoring and early identification of kids at risk for reading problems.
This site provides links to information and research on the problem of disproportionately assigning children from a particular demographic group to special education classes. It also examines the activities states are engaged in to improve their processes for identifying children in need of special education.

Surely no other trail is more deserving of the description "sensational" than the Gruyere Route. Right at the start in Charmey this diverse trail runs past the tempting wellness and fun thermal baths. It then meanders along Lac de Montsalvens with its fjord-like inlets before being swallowed up on the other side of the dam wall by the spectacular Jaunbach Gorge, where its real highlight lies. Wooden walkways, tunnels and rock galleries, little waterfalls and polished rocks make of this adventurous section a family-friendly excursion.

Exhibiting fragrances and flavours, it is a complete sensory experience.

A weekly feature this summer is the recorded writings of young Mainers (ages six through 18) through a collaboration with the Telling Room in Portland.
LAPTI by Mary McColley
My mother has told me
the story
of the three pairs of shoes, lapti,
that hang on our wall.
Little things, woven from tree bark
and deft hands,
brought to a cold market square
in Russia. Light, firm,
meant to protect a child's felt boots and numb toes,
yet made almost achingly delicate
by the years that lay between,
when the poor old man peddled his shoes
on the winter streets of Moscow.
Thin and amber, strips of bark.
My mother has told me
how he beamed, lined face happy,
when she
bought them,
life and streets and half a world away,
when she bought them then
and made an old man smile.
This is the final entry in that summer series. Special thanks to the Telling Room, and to all the young writers for sharing their work.

The Jefferson County Board of Legislators is set to discuss a policy at Tuesdays Health and Human Services Committee meeting that would arm sheriffs deputies with the overdose-reversal drug naloxone hydrochloride, marketed under the name Narcan.
Narcan already is carried by the 13 advanced life support emergency response agencies in the county, but overdoses are on the rise in 2012, EMS teams were dispatched to more than 300 overdose calls and giving deputies the ability to use the drug is seen as a way to save more lives in a predominantly rural county where they are often the first to respond.
Some people have criticized the idea. They claim it will only encourage drug addicts to take greater risks, according to Legislator Anthony J. Doldo, R-Watertown, who has been supporting the measure since attending a presentation about the drug a few weeks ago.
But the issue is more complex than that, Mr. Doldo said.
Whether theyre a drug dealer or not, theyre still somebodys kid, or somebodys nephew or somebodys uncle. It could be a little kid who gets into his parents pain medication. If theres a chance to save that life, how can you not take that chance? I think its a great thing and itd be wrong to look the other way, Mr. Doldo said.
In a letter to Mr. Doldo, Sheriff John P. Burns said he would support a decision from the Jefferson County Board of Legislators to allow his deputies to carry Narcan, provided they receive the proper training to administer it.
Im supportive of it as long as we get the training, Mr. Burns said.
Narcan blocks the receptors in the brain affected by opioid drugs such as prescription painkillers and heroin, reversing the respiratory distress that can cause death.
Narcan traditionally has been injected into the body but now is available in an intranasal form that can be sprayed into the nostrils via an atomizer, making it easier and safer to administer.
The effects of the drug last about 30 minutes. Overdose patients who receive the drug must be transported immediately to a medical facility. Depending on the dosage of opioids, respiratory arrest still may occur after the effects of Narcan wear off.
Narcan is not addictive and produces no pharmacological effects.
Legislators first heard about the initiative during a presentation given at the end of May by Charles F. Brenon III, director of Jefferson County Emergency Medical Services, and Anita K. Seefried-Brown, director of community prevention at the Alcohol and Substance Abuse Council of Jefferson County.
If the county decides to pursue the measure, it most likely will receive free kits from the New York City-based Harm Reduction Coalition, which is under contract with the state Department of Health to administer an opioid overdose prevention program, according to Ms. Seefried-Brown.
After that, kits can be purchased for $10 to $12, Ms. Seefried-Brown said.

PARISHVILLE - An 11-year-old duck that had wandered from his home was reunited his owners this week thanks to a 12-year-old girl and the Potsdam Humane Society.
Hailey E. Sochia, 12, of Potsdam was riding in a car with her mother, Crystal Anderson on the Potsdam-Parishville Road Monday afternoon as the pair were heading to Parishville to visit Haileys grandmother.
We drove up to her house and we saw the duck in the road near The Flow, Ms. Anderson said. When we came back it was in the exact same spot. We pulled over and my daughter said, Its probably hurt, so she tried to scootch it out of the road.
Hailey said the trip to her grandmothers lasted for roughly 15 minutes.
It looked very hurt. When we passed it for the first time, it wasnt moving, she said. We thought it would move, but when we came back it was in the same spot.
While Ms. Anderson wasnt open to bringing the duck to her home in Potsdam, she did agree to allow her daughter to rescue the animal.
We noticed he was waddling funny, she said. We did get him out of the road, but as soon as we got back in the car he was in the road again.
Ms. Anderson said her daughter, who loves animals knew what they had to do.
She said, I think its hurt. Can we take it? I said, We cant have it at home, but maybe we could take it somewhere, Ms. Anderson said.
She said the Humane Society in Potsdam was the first place that came into her mind.
I called them up and they asked a bunch of questions, Ms. Anderson said. Then they said, As long as its not a wild duck bring it on in.
Bonnie Peryer, who serves as a receptionist at the Humane Society laughed as she shared her version of the tale.
I dont think anyone has ever brought in a fowl that was a stray before, Ms. Peryer said. Ive been here for three years and this is the first duck I have seen.
Ms. Peryer said the ducks owners actually heard her daily segment on the radio, where she talked about animals that are up for adoption and strays that had been brought in the day before.
Tonilee A. Perkins, who together with her husband Richard are owners of the animal said she couldnt believe her ears when she heard Ms. Peryer talking about her duck on the radio Tuesday morning.
I couldnt believe it, she said. She said they had a white duck and then they said it was found on the Parishville-Potsdam Road and I was floored.
Ms. Perkins said the duck had been missing Sunday night when they let him out of the duck house, where he had been all winter.
He has free range of the area and everyone around knows who he is, Ms. Perkins said, adding water levels at The Flow are beginning to rise. I thought he had just wondered off and decided to spend the night on the other side of the island.
While he has free range of the area, Ms. Perkins said, the duck usually makes his way home for breakfast each morning and it was unusual when he was a no-show on both Monday and Tuesday.
Ms. Anderson said initially she didnt think bringing a duck into her car was a good idea, but she knew how much it meant to Hailey to try and save the animal.
I didnt think it was a good idea, but I know how much she loves animals and wanted to help it out. I was OK with it, she said.
Hailey said after scooping up the duck and bringing him into the car, she was a little bit afraid of holding onto him, but then he waddled onto her lap and they enjoyed their ride together to the Humane Society.
At first I was scared to hold it, but then he came up to me and sat on me, she said, adding she named the duck Sunny.
Hailey said so far she hasnt had the opportunity to speak with Mr. or Mrs. Perkins, whom Ms. Anderson identified as family friends, but she would like the chance to see Sunny again.
As for her thoughts on the experience, Ms. Anderson said she comes out it as a proud mother.
Im so proud of her. It was hard for her to give him up, but she knew what she had to do, she said.

If you like donuts, then you must try these. They are so good. I think the glaze is just perfect. I only make them once a year, because I cannot stop eating them. They are that good.
This year I decided to do a Boston Cream filling for some of them. I tried one recipe that I found online somewhere and it did NOT turn out. I didn't want to ruin my yummy donuts with a gross filling so I tried a recipe from my trusty Betty Crocker Cookbook. Sometimes the best recipes are right under your nose.
You can find the recipe for the donuts at Food.com
I've adjusted a couple things. I up the yeast to 2 T. and add 1 T. sugar to the yeast and water mixture.
After I cut out the donuts, I let them raise until double, instead of frying them right away.
It is also VERY important to DOUBLE the glaze. Even then I sometimes run out on the last couple donuts.
You can find the Boston Cream filling recipe at the Betty Crocker website.
I just used the cream filling part of the recipe, and piped them into the donuts with a cake decorating bag. You'll want to fill them until it starts squeezing out.
I refrigerated the filled donuts, but not the regular ones.
I'd love to hear what you think of these. If you try them let me know.
Linking up to these parties.

|Damian, Thanks For The Memories.......
|Written by Mike Kelly
|Wednesday, 09 March 2011 18:50
He has a boyish look. He speaks softly, and he has the mannerisms of a gentleman.But get him on a basketball court, and Watauga High senior Damian Edwards turns into a dynamo. Edwards, a three-year varsity starter and one of the greatest players ever to wear a WHS uniform, was rewarded for his efforts by being named the Northwestern 3A/4A Conference Player of the Year.
It's the first time a Pioneer has won this award since Eafton Hill did it in 2000. Jake Orr was the last men's player to be named Player of the Year way back in 1998.
"It was a honor, for sure," Edwards said. "When (assistant coach) Jerry Moretz told me and congratulated me, I was shocked. There's a lot of great players in this league."
But it was a bitter-sweet finish for Edwards, who averaged 19 points-a-game and set a new single-season record for steals with 94. He was suspended for what turned out to be the last three games at the end of the season for picking up three technical fouls in a loss at St. Stephens in the regular-season finale on February 11.
"I really wanted to play in that (playoff) game against (Charlotte) Vance," Edwards said. "Those guys are my brothers out there. I wanted so much to be out there and be a part of them. It was real hard sitting through that game."
And his disppointment was extremely painful. Afterall he and his teammates racked up 48 wins the last three years. They also led the Pioneers to three state playoff appearances and to their first sectional final in three decades.
"We were never cocky, but we were very confident in ourselves," he said. "Yes, we had a chip on our shoulder because the Charlotte schools looked at us like a bunch of mountain boys that weren't very athletic. But we had the ability and the talent to play with anybody."
The Pioneers showed off those talents on February 8 by knocking off Hickory, the regular-season champions, in Boone on Senior Night. The Pioneers simply outplayed the Red Tornadoes, who had dominated them in their three previous meetings. The win snapped Hickory's 21-game winning streak in league play, and it was also the first time the Pioneers had beaten Hickory since 1993.
"That game is the most memorable moment in my career," Edwards said. "We were so determined to win that game. They handled us pretty well the first time we played them. But we changed our offense, and moved the ball around. It really worked in our favor."
Edwards turned in two stellar performances against the Red Tornadoes, which included a 35-point effort at Kraft Gymnasium in January. But those two games only scratch the surface, when it comes to his brilliant career.
There was the 38-point effort last year at the old Lentz-Eggers Gym, his magical touch from the three-point line, his ability of finding ways to score from anywhere on the floor, the level of consistency he brought each time out, and his strong desire to play defense.
"I take it personal when someone scores on me," he said. "Defense is work, and I tried to do something on both ends of the floor to help my team. I've always wanted to play the perfect game. It's basically impossible to do, but I was just trying to find ways to help my team win."
And Edwards wears his emotions on his sleeve. He takes a lot of pride in his performance. And he hopes to carry that attitude to the next level. He has a strong desire to play college basketball. Montreat College, an NAIA school in Montreat, NC, and Central Connecticut State, a Division I school in New Britian, CT.and a member of the Northeast Conference, are his top choices right now.
"I would really like to play at Central Connecticut," said Edwards, who is originally from Manchester, CT. "I went to a camp up there last year, and I have gone to see them play a couple of times. I really feel I could fit into their system.
"Plus, I grew up in that area, and I still have family up there. I never dreamed I would be playing at Watauga. But my mom wanted to earn her masters degree, and she chose to do it at Appalachian (State University). That's what brought me to Boone."
And what a blessing that turned out to be for the Pioneers.

Which is worse, your partner being sexually or emotionally unfaithful? For most people either an emotional or sexual affair can inspire feelings of anger or jealousy. However, "Sugarbabe" author Holly Hill argues that, for men, cheating is normal and thus women should accept that their partner will probably cheat on them. She says, however, that women can regain control by allowing their partners to cheat but controlling the circumstances. According to her, by creating rules about your partner cheating you can structure their infidelity and dissuade them from keeping their affairs secret. In particular, Hill seems to suggest that it is emotional affairs which hurt, and by allowing sexual infidelity she keeps her partner from having an emotional relationship with someone else. For example she says that in her relationship, her boyfriend is allowed to have sex with other women but not sleep over or go on "romantic weekends".
Although her ideas may seem inconceivable for many couples, there is empirical evidence showing that women are more likely than men to say that emotional jealousy is more distressing than sexual jealousy. So, for some women (particularly if they accept the idea that men are "destined to cheat", which is really an entirely separate topic for debate and not particularly well supported in the psychology literature), it might seem like the lesser of two evils for a partner to cheat sexually if that discourages a possible emotional affair. Hill also says that in her relationship she too is allowed to be unfaithful, but both sexually and emotionally because her boyfriend is "okay with it". However, it isn't very clear how this arrangement reduces potential sexual jealousy for either her or her partner. Sexual jealousy, according to research, is equally distressing for men and women. This is despite the assumptions by many evolutionary theorists that men should be more jealous of sexual infidelity than women. What do you think of Hill's arrangement? Do evolutionary psychology theories about jealousy support her ideas or not?

Student Teaching Abroad
Ohio Northern University offers a small number of students the opportunity to complete the capstone student teaching experience at selected sites abroad. The Center for Teacher Education works closely with chosen international schools or through an agreement with the Department of Defense to facilitate these opportunities. The opportunity to student teach abroad is approved through an application process and is dependent upon suitable placements.

Friendships and Fútbol: Student Teaching in Spain
Kristen DeWees
Class of 2013
BS, Health Education and Physical Education
Seeing the world has always been a dream of mine. When I found out it was possible for me to study-abroad while completing my student teaching, I was thrilled! Not only would I be able to experience a new culture firsthand as a local, but I would also have the opportunity to work with a diverse population doing what I love—teaching.
Knowing that I would be working in an American school certainly helped ease any jitters that I had. In fact, The American School of Valencia (ASV) quickly became my family while I was abroad. My mentor teacher, Simone, was an excellent resource both in the classroom and out. He really gave me the opportunity to learn and grow in the classroom, allowing me to experiment with varying teaching methods and ideas. I was also able to get involved in the after-school programs and help coach the ASV Silverbacks fútbol team.
Outside of the classroom, interacting with locals was an amazing experience. More times than not, they were eager to talk with me and learn about where I came from. One of the things that I observed and appreciated was the patience the locals had with me when I would practice my Spanish.
My time Valencia, Spain, could not have been any better. I left with a greater appreciation for other cultures and a more humbled outlook on the world. The relationships that I formed will continue to grow, and the memories and experiences that I took away from my three months there will continue to shape who I am. And you can guarantee that it won't be my last time there either!
Educating in Estonia
Virginia Harrod
Class of 2010
BM, Music Education and Music Performance
Student teaching is considered the "culminating field experience" for education majors at Ohio Northern University. One ambitious student has chosen to add to the already-challenging experience of student teaching by doing it on the other side of the globe. Virginia Harrod, a senior music education major from Fairfax, Va., travelled to Northern Europe in the fall of 2010 to complete her teaching requirements in Tallinn, Estonia.
Harrod first visited Estonia in 2008, while on a spring break tour with the University Singers. While there, she developed a love for the culture, which is deeply rooted in music. In the early 1990s, a Singing Revolution helped to liberate the country from Soviet rule and the culture continues to enthusiastically celebrate folk and choral music. Harrod is excited by her choice of country. "Where better to go than a place that supports and loves music?" she said.
Estonia is a small country with a population of only 1.34 million, which is less than the population of people living in the metropolitan area of Columbus, Ohio. Despite its tiny size, the country is very independent and relies strongly on its heritage and traditions.
For three months, Harrod will live with an Estonian family and integrate herself within the International School System. She plans to teach general music, children's choir and a hand bell choir to children from first to twelfth grade. Most kids in the International School System are the children of diplomats, so she will communicate in English, much to her relief.
Harrod will be the first ONU student to teach in Estonia. Nils Riess, the chair of the Department of Communication Arts, was instrumental in developing a relationship between ONU and Estonia.
The experiences Harrod will gather in Estonia are sure to enrich her life, but she is going there to teach because she knows it will make her a better educator. "I'm just really excited for a different routine and to expand my musical boundaries to help me be a better teacher and person," she said.
The cold Baltic Sea climate might be a shock for many, but Harrod is ready to face it. "I've been told to pack a pair of fur-lined rain boots. And, of course, I already have a pair. Ada prepared me well for that!" she said.
Great Opportunity for Cultural Immersion
Brianna Bizarro, BM Music Education - Class of 2013
The teachers are the same. There were teachers from all over the world teaching under the same roof. It was amazing to see how each country has different learning techniques and how they incorporate them into the classroom. During your stay, the teachers will become your family. So much so that many of your out of school experiences will be with them. Some of mine included: rock climbing at a national park, attending futbol games, learning to make traditional paella (Valencia's rice dish they are famous for), and wine tasting from local vineyards. One thing to take advantage of is traveling! While in Spain I was able to travel to 4 beaches on the Mediterranean, Barcelona, and Rome.

Buying the first Iphone today
Hey guys. I plan to buy my first iphone this afternoon. The at&t iphone 5 16GB off contract to use on Straight talk.
Ive had many androids (Nexus 4, Galaxy Note 2, galaxy nexus on verizon, Droid x) etc. I love all those phones but i feel like every android phone I get, It looks IDENTICAL to the one before it. One home screen, weather/time widget, and 5 icons.
I just feel like i need something new. I previously owned an Ipad and LOVED it. Jailbroke it and literally used it everyday.
I just dont know how its gonna be going to a smaller screen. Thats my only worry.
I have a few questions.
1) When I open the box there will probably be an update. Should I update?
2) Can I jailbreak it?
3) Anything to look for out of the box?
Thanks so much! Hope im making the right choice.

LONDON (MarketWatch)—European stock markets moved higher on Wednesday, as China's new leaders implied they would continue their supportive policy stance, although concerns over stalled U.S. budget negotiations capped gains.
The Stoxx Europe 600 index SXXP, +0.33% rose 0.2% to close at 276.91, gaining ground for a third straight day.
Can China's top leaders be humble?
China's new party chief, Xi Jinping, seeking to improve the top leaders' public image, introduced a list of do's and don'ts for them. The WSJ's William Krazer discusses the likelihood that the leaders will pay attention.
"We have recently had good news out of China, starting this week with good manufacturing data. But equally you also have to say that there remains major concerns in the market, highlighted by weaker U.S. manufacturing data earlier in the week," said Richard Hunter, head of equities at Hargreaves Lansdown.
Shares of Nokia Corp. FI:NOK1V NOK, -0.85% put in the best performance in the index, up 9.7%, after the Finnish mobile-phone maker said it is launching a new Windows-based Lumia handset in partnership with China's biggest operator, China Mobile Ltd. See: Nokia launches smartphone with China Mobile
Shares of Tesco PLC TSCO, +1.51% TESO, -0.46% added 3.3%. The British supermarkets retailer said it would review its U.S. Fresh & Easy business and said it is clear it won't "deliver shareholder returns on an appropriate time frame in its current form."
Euro-zone data was also in focus, after the region's composite purchasing manager's index rebounded in November from a 40-month low the prior month, but continued to signal a deep contraction in private-sector output. See: Euro-zone composite PMI rebounds from 40-month low
China in focus
Elsewhere, markets took inspiration from Asia, where most bourses were in positive territory, after comments from a meeting of China's new leadership on Tuesday signaled that an accommodative economy policy would remain in place in coming quarters. Additionally, it stressed it would actively promote urbanization, expected to spur infrastructure investments and support Chine growth. See: China stocks rally to lead Asia gains
"It also said it would make economic policies more targeted and effective and fine-tune these policies in an appropriate and timely way, indicating economic reform measures in coming years," analysts at Danske Bank said in a note.
The optimism from Asia, however, wasn't enough to sustain a strong rally, as investors continued to worry about the budget wrangling between Democrats and Republicans in the U.S. The two parties need to reach a deal to avoid a raft of tax hikes and spending cuts slated to come into effect in the new year if no action is taken—commonly referred to as the fiscal cliff. See: Next 72 hours critical for cliff deal: Republican
"Even is the cliff is averted, the deficit still needs to be addressed. We have seen risk-on, risk-off on a daily basis with the underlying sentiment still nervous," said Hunter from Hargreaves Lansdown. "Tax hikes are likely to hit companies. That's a reason they don't want to invest all the cash that is sitting on the sidelines.
"Initially, any sort of resolution will give markets a boost and we can also move higher if we continue to get strong numbers from China. Technically there could be some buying later this month as people begin to think about closing their books for the year-end," he said.
Data from the U.S. showed 118,000 private-sector jobs were added to the economy in November, according to ADP, in line with the MarketWatch-compiled estimate. See: ADP: U.S. adds 118,000 private-sector jobs in Nov.
Separately, the increase in productivity in the U.S. in the third quarter was raised to 2.9% from an earlier estimate of 1.9%. See: U.S. third-quarter productivity raised to 2.9%

Before Bad Brains, the Sex Pistols or even the Ramones, there was a band called Death.
Punk before punk existed, three teenage brothers in the early '70s formed a band in their spare bedroom, began playing a few local gigs and even pressed a single in the hopes of getting signed. But this was the era of Motown and emerging disco. Record companies found Death's music— and band name—too intimidating, and the group were never given a fair shot, disbanding before they even completed one album.
Equal parts electrifying rockumentary and epic family love story, A BAND CALLED DEATH chronicles the incredible fairy-tale journey of what happened almost three decades later, when a dusty 1974 demo tape made its way out of the attic and found an audience several generations younger.
Playing music impossibly ahead of its time, Death is now being credited as the first black punk band (hell...the first punk band!), and are finally receiving their long overdue recognition as true rock pioneers.
