A colleague and I were chatting the other day and we were talking about STL implementations (in the context of a broader discussion about template meta-programming and how difficult it is).
During our discussion, I described the STL implementation as "read-only" and he instantly knew what I was talking about. As we dug in further, I realized that for many languages, you can characterize computer languages as read-only and write-only[1]
Of course there's a huge amount of variation here – it's always possible to write incomprehensible code, but there are languages that just lend themselves to being read-only or write-only.
A "read-only" language is a language that anyone can understand when reading it, but you wouldn't even begin to be able to know how to write (or modify) code in that language. Languages that are read-only tend to have very subtle syntax – it looks like something familiar, but there are magic special characters that change the meaning of the code. As I mentioned above, template meta-programming can be thought of as read-only, if you've ever worked with COBOL code, it also could be considered to be read-only.
A "write-only" language is a language where only the author of the code understands what it does. Languages can be write-only because of their obscure syntax, they can be write-only because of their flexibility. The canonical example of the first type of write-only language is Teco (which was once described to me as "the only computer language whose syntax is indistinguishable from line noise"[2]). But there are other languages that are also write-only. For instance JavaScript and Perl are often considered to be write-only – the code written is often indecipherable to a knowledgeable viewer (but is almost always totally understandable to the author of the code). It's possible to write legible JS and Perl, but all too often, the code is impenetrable to the casual observer.
Of course anyone for someone who's very familiar with a particular language, the code written in that language is often understandable – back when I was coding in Teco on a daily basis (and there was a time when I spent weeks working on Emacs (the original Emacs written by RMS, not the replacement written by Jim Gosling) extensions), I could easily read Teco code. But that's only when you spend all your time living and breathing the code.
[1] I can't take credit for the term "read-only", I first heard the term from Miguel de Icaza at the //Build/ conference a couple of weeks ago.
[2] "line noise" – that's the random characters that are inserted into the character stream received by an acoustic modem – these beasts no longer exists in todays broadband world, but back in the day, line noise was a real problem.
Hey Larry, this comment relates to one of your previous and locked post (blogs.msdn.com/.../545451.aspx).
I have an audio that claims to perform sample rate conversion with high fidelity, and the instructions are to set the sample rate in the card's audio center equal to or higher than my source file's. According to the diagram in your post however, it seems the audio driver is at the end of the audio chain, while the mix buffer lies before it.
In the following scenario (CD @ 44.1KHz, Control Panel > Sound..> @ 16bit 48KHz , Audio card's software setting @ 48KHz), does that mean the audio will be upsampled from 44.1KHz to 48KHz by windows, then simply passed onto the card which will output that signal without conversion? Or does the card's "high fidelity audio resampling" occur at the Audio Application level, so it will instead perform all the upsampling before passing the data to the windows buffer and remains unchanged all the way to the output device?
Sorry for the offtopic comment.
I have used "read-only" for programming languages for a long time, but not quite with this meaning. I don't remember how I came up with it, but I don't think I have got it from somewhere.
Typical use: "for me Java is a read-only language". Because between C++ and .NET I was able to understand a lot from a Java program, but I was unable write anything more advanced than a hello-world.
And when I used it, everybody "go it" without explanations.

In July of 2008, at the National Forum on Education Policy in Austin, Texas, the Education Commission of the States (ECS) released From Competing to Leading: An International Benchmarking Blueprint. This blueprint was created in response to growing concerns about the quality of education students in the United States are receiving and the lack of workforce competitiveness our students face, compared to students in other countries around the world. The Blueprint serves as an action guide, recommending essential policy components that would enable states, districts and schools to craft new and adjust existing policies proven to demonstrate world-class performance.
The first National Summit on the Role of Education in Economic Development in Rural America was convened by the Education Commission of the States (ECS) on May 4, 2011, in Washington, DC. This event was a collaborative effort by ECS with the U. S. Department of Education and U. S. Department of Agriculture and was sponsored by AT&T, Archer Daniels Midland, and the National Education Association.
This "Rural Summit" produced recommendations under the headings of "State and Local" and "Federal" in the following categories:

There are things that mystify and fascinate us beyond belief, and then there's Donald Trump's hair. Trump, who many political commentators now believe is planning a run for the presidency, tends to get highly defensive of his world-famous coiffure every time someone suggests it's a toupee. Because it's not. It's a tonsorial work of art.
And now, thanks to the good people at TIME, you can replicate Trump's art right on top of your head. As a part Michael Scherer's new profile about the billionaire would-be president, the magazine unveiled the four key steps to making your hair look like Trump's. It might take you a little while to get it down pat, but if you follow these steps, you'll be boardroom fabulous before you know it.

Early Ford V-8 Club celebrates its Golden Jubilee
1932 Ford Model 18, photos courtesy Jerry Windle, Early Ford V-8 Club of America.
Ford introduced its flathead V-8 in the 1932 Ford Model 18, bringing eight-cylinder power to the masses. Revolutionary for its day, the engine was produced with few significant changes until 1953. A favorite with hot-rodders, it also caught the attention of bank robber Clyde Barrow, who in April of 1934 allegedly penned a letter to Henry Ford, extolling the flathead's virtues:
For sustained speed and freedom from trouble, the Ford has got every other car skinned and even if my business hasn't been strictly legal it don't hurt anything to tell you what a fine car you got in the V8.
In 1963, a group of Ford flathead V-8 aficionados in San Leandro, California, banded together to form the Early Ford V-8 Club of America. Now, five decades later, the club is some 9,000 members strong, with both a national and an international presence. Not only are there active chapters across the United States and Canada, but in Argentina, Australia, Canada, Denmark. Norway, New Zealand Sweden and the United Kingdom as well.
1938 Ford woodie
Though the club recognized only 1932-1940 Ford V-8s in its early days, by 1982 it expanded to encompass all Ford, Lincoln and Mercury vehicles built through 1953, including commercial vehicles and tractors, too. Its name may center around the V-8 engine, but it currently represents all four-, six- or 12-cylinder Ford-powered vehicles built from 1932 through 1953.
Today, the club serves as both a social outlet for like-minded hobbyists and an important resource for those seeking parts or restoration advice for early Ford vehicles. The club publishes a bi-monthly newsletter called the V8 Times, which includes everything from technical articles to features on club members' cars.
1950 Mercury
To commemorate 50 years of camaraderie and busted knuckles, the Early Ford V-8 Club of America will host its Grand National Golden Jubilee celebration this year. Scheduled events include a swap meet, a judged car show, a memorabilia and history room, a golf tournament, and seminars.
One of the Golden Jubilee's highlight events will be a self-guided 100-mile tour through Virginia City, Gold Hill, Silver City, Carson City and Genoa. The tour includes stretches of the original Pony Express route, as well as a drive through towns that mark Nevada's rich mining history.
While the Grand National Golden Jubilee event is the only one marking the club's 50th anniversary, there are annual events for those in the Eastern, Central and Western regions, too, not to mention events scheduled for international chapters.
If you need proof of the global appeal of early Ford products, consider this: The Early Ford V-8 Club of Sweden marks its 40th anniversary in 2013, making it among the oldest chapters in the organization.
The Early Ford V-8 Club of America's Grand National Golden Jubilee will take place June 17-21 in South Lake Tahoe, Nevada. For more information, visit EarlyFordv8.org.

Clyde did write a letter to Ford. My aunt is married to one of Clyde's cousins. They talk about quite often
You might want to check the caption for that Mercury photo. I have a sneaking suspicion that it's not a 1953 Merc.
Yep, that would be a '49 or '50. I'm not that "up" on them to know which for sure. There is a grille difference or something.
It is a 1950.
I'm sure it's a '50. I think the Mercurys had the same door handles as the Fords and the '49s were a simple handle without the pushbutton.
I've always been a fan of the early V-8. I've got three of them and I'm still looking for more. The Early V-8 Club is a great organization. I hope one day to be able to attend one of the meets.
Nice to see old V8 Fords that haven't been chopped up into hotrods.
Noting the Oregon Plate, It might be Terry's Fifty !!
Hmmm . . . with a fine old name like that, you are obviously a man of perception, ability and integrity! 😀
Great to see a 1938 Ford Woodie. I have owned one for 26 years in UK and deliberately keep her in original condition.
I confess, I know how Clyde Barrow felt !
Wonderful patina on your '38 Woodie!
That Mercury is sweet. Those bathtub styled cars from the late 40s/early 50s are growing on me. Reminds me of Jack and Neal in "On the Road".
I don't know if the club knows it or not, but the Flathead was still used in early 1954 Fords made in Canada.
I'll take the 32'….There's just something about the 30's. The clothes, the architecture, the CARS !!!
Is it really a good idea to use a fire extinguisher has a wheel chock?
I have a question.
When was the last FlatHead Ford V8 built?
I always heard that they lived on beyond 1953 as industrial engines. I don't know if that's true or not.
A friend of mine re-engined his early Ford pickup with a repurposed flathead industrial V-8 that was being sold as scrap.
I say a guy in Tennessee a few years ago who was building custom motorcycles with Flathead V8's in them, but I assumed he was just harvesting them from junkyards.
I thought the guy was in Illinois but who's to say that there wasn't more than one building those bikes. They were equipped with V8-60 engines, little 136 CID 17 stud engines rated at 60 hp. A lot of restorers ended up with a stack of 60s because the majority of their customers wanted V8-85s. The 60s fit into a motorcycle frame quite nicely. Of course I think that the 60s were better suited to Midget racing.
I went out and Googled it. I think I know where my memory of Tennessee came from now.
According to what I could find, Honest Charlie's in Chattanooga sold them, but they were supplied to him by a guy named Dale Olsen in Maple Grove, Illinois.
All the posts I found were 6 or 7 years old, so I guess probably they're no longer available.
Sorry to drag this into a motorcycle discussion, but they do have Flathead V8s in them!
They were built into the 60s by an outfit in France. Renault, I believe, built them for military carriers.
Fords and V8 flatheads forever!! I've had over a dozen or so in the past plus Mercurys and Lincolns. Enjoyed them all, had a lot of fun tinkering and playing with them, too. My '41 and one of the '46s had a bad habit of vapor locking at the worst times, like in the middle of a turn in busy traffic and at a stop light. Was really aggravating, several times I just pushed them to the curb and went for coffee! Came back and drove away. My '40 coupe really locked a lot so I put an electric fuel pump on it, problem solved….
My Grandpa had a '46 Ford with the block bored and stroked to Mercury specs, with three Stromberg carbs on top of an Offy manifold with straight pipes going into glass packs right at the end of the pipes. It hauled ass, for what it was. He sold it and bought a new '68 GTO with all the go fast goodies from the factory. I still have the Goat, but he forgot to get the disc brake option. It stops like a '55 Buick that's low on brake fluid.
Always loved those flatheads. My favorites were the straight 8 flatheads by Pontiac and Packard.
Nice to see cars restored and not chopped up into junk
Re: "Revolutionary for its day, the engine was produced with few significant changes until 1953″…
Say rather, '1954'.

The anonymous feature was added by our engineering team to offer a way for members who wanted to just post with one screen name, but might occasionally want to ask a question on another community without embarrassment. For instance, you're a member of a parenting community and you want to ask a question about genital herpes but you don't want your fellow parenting members knowing that part of your business.
This note is to let you know that while other members on the Community may not know who you are when you post anonymously, your screen name is NOT hidden from our moderator team.
If you use the anonymous posting feature to stir trouble within any Community, you risk losing your WebMD Member account.
Yet, we do realize that some members prefer to post in an anonymous name, and that's fine as.
Also the question of the ignore feature has been brought up at times, and I believe it is being considered to be a feature again. When, I really don't know, but it's come up and management is aware that it's wanted back. I'll remind them again and I have seen requests here and other communities as well.
I hope that helps.

The above is done in an effort to get this exchange back on track.Please also keep in mind that when a post is removed, all of its responses are taken along with it. This means that when the problem post is the initial post in a discussion, the entire discussion will be removed. This also means that there may have been nothing wrong with your post, but rather with the post to which you responded.
We cannot discuss deletions on the board itself. If, after reading the above, you still have questions about your own deleted posts, please write to email@example.com be sure to include your board nickname, the name of the board involved, and any other pertinent details.

The Cheshire Cheese is a big pub at the top of the hill near the market place in Buxton.
It is long in shape, with a low beamed roof, several little sections, and a beer garden to the front.
There is also a pool room, and a live band area.
The pub offers food, cooked by award winning chef "Boff".
From Boff's Kitchen come several meals at just £2.99, including Fish & Chips.
We came on a sunday and had the Sunday Roast, with a pint of bitter, all served by a nice friendly tattooed barman.
The Sunday Roast consists of Beef or Pork, 2 Yorkshire Puddings, Stuffing, Roast Potatoes, Mashed Potatoes, Peas, Carrots, Cauliflour, Brocolli and Gravy, all for a very good £5.95.
It came very quick, served by a nice waitress, and tasted excellent, as did the beer!
The clientelle was a mix of locals and sports teams, all very friendly.
Afterwards, I located the gents... turn left down past the pool table.
On the right of the narrow gentleman's room is a long metal trough, set against cream tiles and a cream wall, with a large piece of wood behind it, see photo.
It had yellow p*ss soaps, nice metal cistern too!
Past the urinal is the sink worktop, housing two small metal round sinks. Both worked well, as did the soap and old hand drier.
There is also a condom machine.
To the left of the sink area is a small cubicle set in a corner.
This houses a nice loo with a good right-hand flush handle and white plastic seat.
There was a lock on the door, loo roll, and a bog brush. The only criticism was that the floor was quite wet.
Great Pub + Good Bogs! 8/10

Last month, we set out our third Celebrity Card challenge and asked "what would Christopher Columbus have? We were really excited to see the entries fly in and there were some absolutely fantastic designs sent through. From ships to compasses, pictures of Columbus himself and the occasional map, so much thought had gone into what Business Cards Christopher Columbus would hand over.
Monika was left with a tough job of picking a winner, however, we're glad to announce that Mal Webster has been chosen as the winner of the Christopher Columbus competition. Mal's design caught Monika's eye with a style appropriate for Christopher Columbus and well considered details (which made us giggle). Mal wins $300 …Continue reading this article…

Special Cradley service to remember outbreak of WW1
Posted: July 22, 2014|
I AM leading a special centenary commemoration service at Overend Methodist Mission Banner's Lane on the eve of the anniversary of the outbreak of the war, Sunday, August 3 at 6pm.
Any Bugle readers who would like to attend are most welcome.
The names of 133 Cradley men who lost their lives will be projected on to a screen. The names of those whom people would like to remember who lived elsewhere will also be read out in an Act of Remembrance, led by Harry Sturman of the British Legion with bugler Stephen Bradley.
If you would like a name included, or further information, please phone me on 01384 567274.
If you have a photo of someone who served, but did not necessarily die, please bring that with you to hold up.
A candle will be lit by a member of the St John's Ambulance Brigade in recognition of the part played by women.
Another will be lit by a Quaker in acknowledgement of those who had a conscientious objection to the war.
A Sikh, a South African and a man from Jamaica will light a candle to recognise the contribution played by other countries in the British Empire.
Extracts from letters of Cradley servicemen will be read out by members of their families.
The young descendants of Gunner Bert Homer RA, who died of wounds in 1917 aged 23, will light a flame for peace.
Baroness Alicia Kennedy of Cradley and James Morris MP will read the Bible passages.
On August Bank Holiday Monday 1914 Cradley people were enjoying a welcome break from work. In those days the holiday was at the beginning of the month rather than at the end as it is now. The following day, August 4, the British Empire declared war on the German Empire, which had invaded neutral Belgium.
Three days later Lord Kitchener, Minister of War, put out an appeal for volunteers to fight and there was a huge popular response. Young men surged to enlist, in the belief that they would be home for Christmas.
For those who stayed at home, one of the immediate consequences was a rise in food prices. On August 8 about 1,000 'excitable and indignant working-class residents' of Cradley gathered in an open space near the parish church to air their concern at the distress that was being caused with breadwinners being taken away.
Collections were taken for a War Relief Fund to provide assistance to those in need.
Women members of the Queen Mary needlework guild gathered at Colley Lane school to make garments and bandages for sick and wounded soldiers, which were handed on to the Red Cross or sent to the military hospital at Wordsley. Parcels were made up to be sent to military personnel as appeals were made for small items, such as hankies, boot laces, antiseptic powder, boracic ointment for sore feet, pocket knives, pencils, cigarettes and dried fruits.
In addition to the Red Cross and Wordsley military hospital other causes that benefited from Cradley's fundraising efforts were the Belgian refugees accommodated at Lye and Stourbridge, the children of servicemen, the Star and Garter Homes for disabled soldiers, Blinded Heroes, and prisoners of war in Germany.
Letters from Cradley men mention their gratitude for the parcels containing home-made cakes, plum puddings, copies of the local newspaper, the County Express, and church magazines. Albert Grove wrote: "The monthly parcel has become a thing to which I look forward, not alone for the good things, but for the magazine and the news which it brings from the old place."
Philip Heath wrote: "I see you have included cigarettes this time so you have got to know that I have started smoking. I was persuaded by those who have been here longer that it would be best to do so, owing to the bad smells in the trenches and many places where we have to stay."
By Christmas six young men from Cradley had lost their lives on the Belgian battlefields at Ypres and Flanders.
The name of Ernest Best is one of the names on the Cradley war memorial. He came through Ypres in 1914 only to be struck by shrapnel, gassed and blinded with chlorine in 1915. He eventually had to be discharged as physically unfit.
Joseph Plant of Park Lane, who served in the Royal Artillery, found it so hard to take that he committed suicide when he came home on leave. He threw himself under a train at Maypole Fields, 'while temporarily insane', rather than return to war. I'm so glad that his name is recorded on the war memorial as he was a just as much a victim of war as the others.
The numbers of casualties rose steadily and the mood of excitement when war was declared was soon replaced by a harsh realisation of the horror and tragedy and sheer awfulness of battle. Cradley men weren't just involved in fighting on the Western Front. They also sailed out to Turkey and the Middle East. A number of them served at the Dardanelles in the disastrous Gallipoli campaign. This was fought against the Ottoman Empire, which was an ally of Germany, and began on April 25, 1915, and lasted until January 9, 1916. Eighteen Cradley men died as a result, some in action and some from dysentery and pneumonia. The 4th Worcester Regiment was virtually annihilated as a fighting force.
The first Zeppelin raid over Cradley took place on Monday, January 31, 1916. Just before 8pm lights appeared to be falling from the sky in the direction of Tipton. Within minutes reports were received that a Zeppelin had been dropping bombs over Tipton and Walsall. After an hour everything went quiet and it was hoped that the airship had gone home, but at midnight the inhabitants of Cradley were woken up by a roar from the engines and the Zeppelin circled over Cradley and Netherton dropping bombs as it went. After this there was a general order to show no lights at night, apart from firms engaged in the manufacture of war material. There had been some discussion before this as to whether the street gas lamps should be put out for fear of Zeppelin raids, with the inhabitants saying that it was ridiculous because Cradley was off the map.
The following year Cradley Parish Council was able to balance its budget for the first time for years because of the amount of money that had been saved on lighting. An anti-aircraft gun was stationed in Beecher Road to afford protection.
No one had been prepared for the huge losses that were sustained and in May 1916 a Conscription Act had to be introduced to provide men to fight in the place of those who had been killed.
As the weeks and months went by the pubs in Cradley were closed early and food economies had to be made in the light of shortages. By 1917 obtaining enough food had become a very serious problem and some Cradley residents went to Hull to purchase Norwegian herrings. Food items could no longer be sent in the parcels to soldiers and postal orders were sent instead.
The letters home began to show a desperate longing for peace. Edward Richardson, grocer in Cradley Road, wrote in the summer of 1918: "I was thinking it is time I had done my bit overseas. I don't care how soon it is all over, so that we can come back to our old land." At the same time Joe Timmins wrote: "I often wonder how much we shall appreciate peace when it returns to its proper place again."
In total the Great War claimed the lives of at least 133 Cradley men.

WALLA WALLA -- It was, by any standard, a landslide, said Toby Swank with the Walla Walla Post Office.
The May 8 National Association of Letter Carriers' annual food drive was expected to push the 18-year national total collected poundage over the one billion mark.
Last year's giving set a record of nearly 74 million pounds from pantries across America, and preliminary data so far puts this year within reach of hitting or breaking 2009's record, according to the national organization.
The Walla Walla area was completely on board, as well, said Swank, who coordinates the local postal carriers drive. Between Walla Walla and College Place postal customers, 13,736 pounds of food was collected, cooking last year's record of 11,900 pounds.
All the groceries were delivered to Blue Mountain Action Council Food Bank.
"We still have a little food trickling in, as well as some money. Each dollar donated translates to a pound of food," he said. "I don't have a total on that yet, but we are extremely happy and excited that we broke our own local record in a 'down' year."
In addition, last Saturday's food drive facilitated by local Pathfinders from the Seventh-day Adventist Church brought in just under 8,000 pounds of food, noted Gail McGhee, manager of the BMAC food bank.
"So you can see from these two food drives being only a week apart, that there is a tremendous amount of support from our community for others."
His crew is thinking ahead to 2011, Swank said. "We hope to have similar success next year and we're planning to step it up even more."
For those still wishing to donate, call 529-3561 or go to the food bank at 921 W. Cherry St.

The combined inhibition of p300 and PCAF HATs resulted in an evident reduction of HBV replication which mirrored the decrease of pgRNA transcription. The hSirt1/2 activator MC2791 and the JMJD3 inhibitor MC3119, albeit with different efficiency, inhibited both HBV replication and cccDNA transcription. Results represent a proof of concept that activation of hSirt1 and Ezh2 (through the inhibition of its functional antagonist JMJD3) by small molecules can induce an active epigenetic suppression of HBV cccDNA minichromosome similar to that observed with IFNα, and lead to persistent cccDNA silencing.
Lymphtoxin beta receptor (LTbR) agonisation represents basis for novel alternative therapeutic approach to curing chronic HBV infection.
The final study demonstrated that stimulating the lymphtoxin beta receptor (LTbR) provides an effective, long lasting and non-cytopathic mechanism for achieving effective HBV-cccDNA depletion in infected hepatocytes. Cell culture models including HBV-infected HepaRG cells and primary human hepatocytes were used to test the effect of antibodies stimulating human LTbR (BS1 or CBE11). Results show that a strong and dose-dependent anti-HBV effect was achieved by activation of the LTbR. All HBV replication markers were decreased with this treatment, including cccDNA in cells where HBV infection was already established.
Hepatitis B is the most prevalent cause of chronic viral hepatitis and a major global health problem. Prof. Fabien Zoulim, EASL Educational Councillor commented on the

The 10 Commandments of Teaching Yoga. ~ Rebecca Lammersen
I take what I do seriously. I consider myself a professional. Teaching yoga is my career.
For the past couple of years, I've become increasingly concerned for yoga, the students who practice it, and the teachers who teach it. I think yoga in this country is spiraling out of control, because of the lack of supervision and accountability we hold as teachers.
No one's really keeping an eye on us. Where's the structure? The guidelines? The standards? The ethics?
We can't depend on Yoga Alliance or another umbrella association to provide us with the support and structure we need. Instead, we must build it ourselves.
So I ask, where is the union? We need one, desperately.
Every other recognized and established industry has one. Why don't we?
Can you imagine if there was an undivided organization of teachers, who pledge to adhere to a guideline of universal principles and ethics, for the purpose of ensuring our students always feel safe, nurtured, effectively guided and protected at all times, and so do we?
I hope this continues and adds momentum to a conversation that was started by many before me, to fuel the creation of a unified front amongst teachers in this country and abroad.
My 10 commandments are an outline I hope will be expanded upon…
1. Thou shalt not preach.
Leave your sermon at the door. When a person walks into a yoga class, they expect to do yoga. Be careful with your words. Your beliefs are your opinions. Your opinions are your judgments. Judgments do not belong in the yoga room.
When a person decides to step onto their yoga mat, they become the most vulnerable, exposed, impressionable and easily coerced version of themselves. It is an abuse of power to take advantage of their state, and if you are preaching, that's what you are doing.
(It took me a while to realize this. I used to say too much. It wasn't for my students' benefit, it was for my own. Once I recognized this, I found an outlet for my thoughts and opinions—writing. I've learned the less I say, the more my students focus on themselves, as they should.)
Your job is to help your students learn how to connect with their breath (which is tedious and difficult work). They do not need the extra task of making sense of your diatribe, while breathing and balancing simultaneously.
The less you say to your students, the more you observe them. The more you observe them, the more you learn about them. The more you learn about them, the more you can help them. That's why you're a teacher, to help.
2. Thou shalt teach breath before chaturanga and chaturanga before handstand.
No one runs a marathon before they've run a lap. The same principle applies to the progression of the asana (posture) practice. Without breath, the body will fight movement, causing tension, pain and injury. Breath is the airbag of the body, it protects the body from injury and promotes flexibility and strength—the purpose of the physical practice.
Once the body is secured by the breath, it can move safely. However, if a practitioner can not lower his or her body with integrity and control during chaturanga (the transition from plank pose to the bottom of a push up), he or she is in no position to handstand; just as running one mile does not qualify you to run 26 of them.
A stable foundation is mandatory for a solid, balanced structure to be sound and sustainable. It is a process to be savored, not rushed.
Which leads right into #3.
3. Thou shalt give your students what they need, not what they want.
I relate being a teacher to being a parent; I see it the same way. My children don't belong to me, and I do not live vicariously through them or their abilities and talents. My job is to listen to them, guide them and honor their needs.
A parent/teacher's responsibility is to create structure.
My children want structure. They want to know what comes next, while feeling secure in the moment.
If I allowed them to eat candy all day long and stay up as late as they wanted, I would be guilty of neglect. It would be my fault if they became sick or hurt. The same principle applies for the practice. There must be structure to safeguard your students' physical and emotional well being.
If I allow my students to do whatever they want (e.g., jumping into handstand with every vinyasa, or permitting them to talk with one another during class), I would be neglecting their needs. They may want to chit chat and flail their limbs in space, but they walked into my classroom (whether aware or not) wanting to learn from me.
It is my duty to harness the energy of the room, command their attention and give them what they need.
How do I control the class, ensuring everyone is practicing postures appropriate for their body's structure and level?
Class is structured. Inversions are allowed when cued, and modifications are given for each level of practitioner.
I teach so no one is ever left out. When students come to my class, they know they will always feel included.
4. Thou shalt cue to the beginner before the expert.
I cue first and foremost to one person in the room, and that is the one who is courageous enough to try yoga for the first time or maybe the fifth time. The student who has been practicing for five years knows their limits and their body's ability.
The veteran practitioners will take their practice to the edge regardless of my cues. For example, I never cue to jump forward or back, or bind, unless I am guiding the entire class into a particular posture or transition, because the students who don't know better will follow my directions and end up compromising their bodies, risking injury. For this reason, I cue to the beginner first.
The veterans will always bind and jump. I'm okay with that under one condition—they know I expect them to move in unison with the rest of the class (no deviating from sequencing unless instructed).
I use my power in class not as the tyrant, but as the mother. For the hour and a half we are in the room together, I maintain a cohesive practice for my students, where they always feel cared for, never excluded or judged.
5. Thou shalt set boundaries.
You are not a therapist, a nutritionist, a doctor, a chiropractor or an all knowing enlightened one (unless you actually are).
You are a yoga teacher.
I have to remind myself of this daily. My students trust me and often turn to me as a confidant. However, this is not my job. I have begun to set solid boundaries which can be uncomfortable to do, but I can't burden myself with everyone else's issues when I've got my own to worry about.
When students approach me with physical ailments, emotional trauma and nutrition questions, I refer them to professionals who can help them.
I am not a surgeon. It is not my responsibility to fix my students. It is my responsibility to help them discover the tools they need to fix themselves, through the method of yoga.
6. Thou shalt keep your penis or vagina in your pants.
Again, a teacher is a parent. Would you have sex with your children? Enough said.
7. Thou shalt remind your student they always have the right to say no.
Empower your students. Tell them they have the right to refuse your touch and your adjustments.
My teacher, Dave Oliver, has a discrete way of communicating this with his students. He asks everyone who does not want to be touched, to fold under the back corner of their mat.
Not only should you teach your students to say no to you, but teach them to say no to their ego.
I do this verbally, "In this room, the only right or wrong is what feels right or feels wrong for your body. If your body is saying stop, stop. Don't force it. You're the one who lives in your body, you are your own expert."
I tell my students to find their way to child's pose whenever they need a break. I think child's pose is the pose of the advanced mind, the mind who listens to the body and respects when it says,"I need to rest."
8. Thou shalt adjust to guide, not to fix.
One size does not fit all when it comes to adjustments. Every body is different. The same adjustment does not work for everyone. Learn the body, know the body, observe your students, know their injuries, and watch how they move. An adjustment is the same as a prescription, diagnose then treat.
Ask them to assertively say, "Stop!" if your adjustment is hurting them. The purpose of an adjustment is to align, not to push a person further than they naturally and comfortably have the ability to stretch.
The wise one knows, "not to make more struggle of struggle."
Be a support for your student, a warm hand, a gentle touch guiding them in the direction of the twist, the fold, or the bind. This will allow them to breath easier and stretch further, on their own.
9. Thou shalt teach only what you know and continue to learn what you don't know.
I only teach what I know. I practice and master what I know, so I can translate my knowledge to my students in an efficient, articulate and easily digestible way.
Remember, a student is an echo of your voice. Make sure your echo is true. Teach what you know to be correct. Research, check your sources, question the accuracy of what you learn until you believe it to be true. Otherwise, you will be misinforming the world.
In order to remain informed, always be a student.
200 hours is not the end of your training, it is the beginning. Keep going. Keep learning. You never know it all and you can never know enough.
My teacher, Cheryl Oliver, continuously studies with her teacher. Her humility is palpable; she sees herself as a student first. Her dedication to refining her expertise inspires and excites me to learn from her.
10. Thou shalt keep it simple and be yourself.
Simple always makes sense. Simple is teachable. Simple is learnable. Simple is peaceful. Peace is what we all crave.
My favorite yoga teacher is consistently simple, easy to understand and fun to be around. He loves being in the room with his students. He loves teaching yoga. He is comfortable in his skin. He has an authentic voice. He teaches what he knows, and won't teach or preach what he doesn't know or understand. For these reasons, he remains my favorite yoga teacher.
We can all learn from him. Be simple. Be you.
There is room for all of us when we are being ourselves. Teaching is not a competition, it is not a performance, and it is not a popularity contest—it is a mission of service.
To educate is to serve.
Whether we teach Ashtanga or Iyengar, Power or Restorative, we all share the same mission—to help others learn how to live well in their bodies, so they can live well in their lives.
Those of us who have chosen this path of service need the support of one another. We need to hold each other accountable for our actions, encourage professionalism and embrace an ethical standard throughout our industry for our well being and for the well being of our students.
What do you say? Let's unite. Who's with me?

Thank You Kelli. I'm honored you would share this. ~Rebecca
100% with you….this was really beautiful and rings true, compassionate and authentic with every word. THANK YOU xxx
Thank you
Well said! I agree with everything you said and will use it in my teachings. Thank you.
Thank You Nicole
Totally with you on a lot of this: need for a union etc.. however, your first commandment is "Thou shalt not preach.." and your whole manifesto of "10 commandments", complete with 'thou"s and "shalt"s does have the ring of preaching about it to my mind. Part from that lovely sentiments. All the best

The title a writer chooses for his or her article is done with the same intention as a woman choosing to wear red lipstick as an accessory to her outfit, to stand out and get attention.
I stood out. I grabbed your attention. You read the article. That's all. Some people are distracted by the lipstick, they don't see the whole outfit. Thank you for noticing all of it! ~Rebecca
Agree ….I feel as teachers if we live or Yamas and Niyamas .. That is our best guidance and May or individuality shine through not only in our self pratice but as we practice being the Best teacher we humanly know possible. …Om SHANTI
Please share your ten pieces of advice for a teacher.
thanks for keeping it real!
A teacher is a parent? C'mon.

Travis Haney, an award-winning journalist who has covered South Carolina football for 4½ seasons, is joining The Oklahoman sports staff as beat writer for the University of Oklahoma football.
The Oklahoman hires award-winning reporter Travis Haney to cover OU football
"I'm very aware of the culture, history and tradition that has defined Sooners football for longer - much longer - than I've been alive," Haney said. "This opportunity is one I embrace with excitement, to deliver a fervent fanbase the information and stories it desires about the team it loves."
Haney covered the University of South Carolina and Southeastern Conference athletics for The (Charleston, S.C.) Post and Courier. Part of that, of course, was building a relationship with Steve Spurrier, the coaching legend who is among Sooners coach Bob Stoops' best friends.
Additionally, Haney, 29, was the reporter of record for the Gamecocks' consecutive College World Series titles in 2010 and 2011, the first men's national championships ever won by the school. As a byproduct of that, he wrote his first book, "Gamecock Glory," about the team's 2010 run.
Before his stint in South Carolina, Haney covered the Atlanta Braves and Major League Baseball for two-plus seasons, in 2005 and 2006. He covered SEC sports in his first two jobs, with The (Anderson, S.C.) Independent-Mail and The Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle. The native East Tennessean, a 2003 graduate of the University of Tennessee, had a story selected for inclusion in the 2005 edition of the Best American Sports Writing series. He has also received a number of state and national awards for feature writing.

Man found dead in Ventura home after five-hour standoff
A reportedly suicidal man who barricaded himself in a Ventura home Wednesday was found dead after a five-hour standoff, police said.
Officialsinitially evacuated homes near the 6500 block of Bristol Road about 11:30 a.m. Wednesday after relatives called to report a possibly suicidal man in a residence and neighbors reported a strong odor of natural gas.
A 66-year-old man in the residence was making suicidal comments before others started smelling gas in the area, police said. At least 10 nearby homes were evacuated, said Ventura Police Sgt. Jack Richards.
Traffic was blocked off on Bristol Road, as well as Ralston Street between Johnson and Katherine drives, police said.
Police shut off the gas to the residence, but officers proceeded with caution due to a previous incident at the home and the unknown amount of gas inside, officials said. SWAT officers responded to the same home in 2009 after a man barricaded himself inside with a shotgun, police said.
Police did not release the dead man's name Wednesday, but in the December 2009 incident that ended after a 10-hour standoff, Jack Lee Caldwell, 66, allegedly threatened to kill a neighbor then returned to the home and barricaded himself inside. Caldwell pleaded guilty June 1 to making terrorist threats in the 2009 case, admitted that it was his second felony conviction and pleaded guilty to possession of a firearm by a felon, court records show.
Ventura County Superior Court Judge Bruce Young let him go free on $300,000 bail and set his sentencing for Wednesday. The judge issued a warrant for Caldwell's arrest when he didn't show up for his sentencing.
Caldwell's lawyer, Justin Tuttle of the Ventura County Public Defender's Office, said in an interview that Caldwell was expected to get about 6.5 years behind bars.
Tuttle said his client was making preparations to spend time in prison, but he seemed to be in reasonably good spirits. He said he spoke to his client Tuesday, and he expected him to be in court.
SWAT officers were called to the home Wednesday and a bomb squad robot was brought in to help authorities determine if the man was in the residence, police said. Ventura Fire Department officials, Ventura County Sheriff's Department officials and a police K9 also were on scene.
Police made announcements telling the man to come out and authorities broke out windows of the residence as crisis negotiators tried to contact him.
Shortly before 4:30 p.m., officials entered the home and found a man dead inside, Richards said. There were no immediate signs of how the man died, he said.

Detailed Description:
Since changes in FDA regulation direct-to-consumer advertising (DTCA), pharmaceutical companies have expended increasing resources to market their products to the public. This has led to increased awareness of diseases and potential treatments, but it has also created more public demand for medications that may not be appropriate for a patient's clinical presentation. This study aims to provide physicians with the knowledge and skills required to help them address inappropriate DTCA medication requests from patients.

Putting technology to work for school leaders
Mapping Out SolutionsLike just about every school system in the country, South Carolina's Horry County School District faces a daunting array of challenges to our ability to prepare students for future success. To help us accomplish our goals, we sought an effective, efficient assessment tool that provides objective data on which the board can base decisions. While the district was committed to the use of our state test, the consensus was that we needed something more.July 2004

This part of the Centennial State is famous for its thunderstorms and twisters; and it was here, less than three years ago, that a nearby district lost much of its computer equipment and nearly all its files to a devastating tornado.

Painting tilt kicks-off San Fernando cityhood celebration-A A +A
Saturday, January 25, 2014
CITY OF SAN FERNANDO -- An on-the-spot streamer painting contest at Hilaga (formerly Paskuhan Village) Saturday signaled the start of this city's "Kaganapan 2014" or the 13th Cityhood Charter Anniversary celebration.
Eight public and private schools participated in the traditional "soft launch" of Kaganapan 2014, which will culminate on February 4, the day the capital town was converted into a component city.
This year's theme is anchored on Mayor Edwin Santiago's "Fernandino First" battlecry "Fernandino ing Mumuna, Fernandino ing Manimuna."
"This is the traditional practice of kicking off the Kaganapan every year. The streamers painted by our Fernandino students will be displayed in the strategic areas around the city where the cycling caravan which will officially signal the start of the celebration will pass," said Ceferino "Par" Pamintuan, chairman of Kaganapan 2014.
For his part, Santiago told Sun.Star Pampanga that Kaganapan 2014 will have his administration's 12-point agenda as its framework.
"Kaganapan 2014 will have everything based on our 12-point agenda.
Activities for Fernandinos during the week-long celebration focus on health, education, social services and will be highlighted by our citywide environment clean-up day on February 1," he said.
Winners of the streamer painting contest in the high school division were ICT High School, which pocketed the P5,000 top prize; San Lorenzo Center for Schools and Studies; second place; Pampanga High School, third place; and University of the Assumption, fourth place.
In the elementary level, Dela Paz Norte Integrated School bagged the P5,000 for the first place, followed by Lorenzo Center for Schools and Studies, Sta. Lucia Integrated School, and San Jose Panlumacan Elementary School. (Kristine Venet Q. Andal)

CHINESE New Year is a time when many people buy festive foods and clothes to celebrate the occasion, but there are some who set their sights on bigger things — property.
Sensing the opportunity, enterprising developers have taken advantage of the festive atmosphere and influx of outstation visitors by increasing their advertising expenditure during the season.
Andaman Group sales and marketing head Datuk Dr Vincent Tiew said property developers in Perak generally choose to ramp up their advertising efforts during the Lunar New Year due to the large number of people travelling home from other states.
"At Andaman, we have launched four projects, which are the Taipan@Slim River, Taipan@Pantai Remis, Taipan City@Ipoh and Westlake View@Sungai Siput this Chinese New Year.
"The launches were timed to coincide with this period," he told The Star.
Tiew said in Perak alone, the Andaman Group had spent about RM500,000 in newspaper and billboard advertisements as well as leaflets and in organising events throughout February.
"This is five times more compared to our Chinese New Year advertising expenditure in previous years due to the number of project launches we have at the moment.
"It has, however, paid off handsomely as our sales figure stands at about RM100mil since the beginning of this month," he said.
Kinta Real Estate Sdn Bhd managing director Datuk Poo Tak Kiau, who has been in the property business for 25 years, said the good response generated during Chinese New Year was something unique to states like Perak.
"This situation is not possible in big cities such as Kuala Lumpur where it is deserted during festive seasons because workers leave town to be with their families back home.
"As these workers return en masse to states such as Perak, local property developers jump at the chance to heavily promote their projects in hopes of snagging potential purchasers shopping around for property.
"This seasonal boom can be clearly seen in our sales this year where 40% of the units in Phase One of our Tin City project in Falim was sold out just four days into Chinese New Year," he said.
Poo added that the company's other projects, The Majestic and Meru Desa Park, also did well during the period.
Kaizen Holdings Sdn Bhd chief executive officer Dr Tan Chin Yong said efforts to increase the number of advertisements through newspapers and billboards as well as putting up buntings during Chinese New Year had always paid off.
"The population of the city almost doubled when those working outstation returned to Ipoh to visit their parents and relatives.
"It makes perfect sense to increase our efforts in advertisements as we can reach more people during this period.
"The response this year is especially good due to Chinese New Year falling on a long weekend," he said, adding that the company had sold quite a number of units of The Dorset Place and Somerset projects on Jalan Raja Dr Nazrin Shah and Jalan Sultan Azlan Shah, respectively.
Meanwhile, Total Investment Sdn Bhd managing director Tan Fun Kwai said its advertisements this Chinese New Year were focused on its upcoming Bandar Meru Raya project, even though the project was only slated to be launched in June.
"Based on my experience, those who return from outstation to Ipoh in search for property usually aim to buy houses for their parents or themselves.
"We launched an awareness campaign for the Bandar Meru Raya project in newspapers, magazines and billboards, in the hope of capturing the attention of potential purchasers," he said.

text: Arkansas Gazette June 17, 1823 (July 1, 1823) $50 DOLLARS REWARD RAN away from Simeon True, where he was hired, in Scott county, Kentucky, on the 22d of this month, a Negro Man named JAMES; belonging to the heirs of J. Cooper, deceased. He is about 30 years of age, quite black, thick lips, shows his teeth very much when spoken to, his upper fore-teeth are quite open, about 5 feet 10 inches high, his weight about 180 pounds. He had on, when he went away, a green cloth coat, black pantaloons, and a wool hat, but will no doubt change them--his other clothing not known. It is supposed he was persuaded away by a worthless white man, 35 or 40 years of age, about five feet ten inches high--fond of drink, and a blacksmith by trade. Said man has been to Arkansas, and will probably return there. Two or three other Negroes are believed to be in company with them. The above reward, and all reasonable charges, if taken out of this state (Kentucky), and returned to the subscriber, or secured in any jail; or THIRTY DOLLARS, if taken in the state, and secured as above, so that I get hi. He will no doubt change his name. DANIEL COOPER, Guardian for the heirs of J. Cooper, dec'd March 23, 1823
