Teach Less, Learn More
A new graduate school semester is underway, and this semester I'm working with school library licensure candidates in the course, Curriculum and the School Library Teacher. (Note that I'll refer here to the individuals who are earning their state licensure as "candidates" and the K-12 students as "students.")
So we've spent time during the first two weeks talking and reading about the influences that shape curriculum (what determines curriculum and what perhaps should), school librarians' roles in curriculum-related processes (including instructional design, teaching, assessment, and curriculum development, among others), and what curriculum looks like in practice – beyond the "document" that is curriculum – in the library, classrooms, and in student learning.
In the class last evening, we considered the goals of education, asking "what is it for?" What are we trying to accomplish when we teach? What do we want students to know and do, and why? What learning and skills are considered valuable- and who or what sets the standards of "value"?
Standardized testing, the Common Core State Standards, global communities, 21st century skills, space and time to think, and the varied demands of school were a few of the many topics that raised robust dialog, and the candidates' insightful questions and reflections still have me thinking in lots of directions today.
One conversation stemmed from an exercise from the Bernie Trilling and Charles Fadel book, 21st Century Skills: Learning for Life in Our Times. A quick synopsis of the task is this: first, envision a kindergartner starting school "today," and the world, career, and requisite skills for this child when he or she enters the job market in about 20 years. Then consider what makes learning powerful and lasting. Finally, think about the kinds of learning experiences that will effectively prepare this child for the world in 20 years and how the ideal aligns with the realities of education today.
Now, I sometimes take problems like these and point out that it's not just "tomorrow" that we're worried about, but learning for today – but that disclaimer aside, I thought it was interesting that in order to think through this scenario, some of the candidates refocused the question on themselves. What skills did they learn as K-12 students that they still use now? Communication, problem solving, conflict resolution, and cultural and political understanding were a few that they mentioned. No matter the specifics of the contexts, this was the learning that they depended upon time and again. They explored the old "when am I ever going to use this" question and identified skills that indeed, they still use, and as it turns out, even teach as school librarians: information literacy, reading, and a disposition for lifelong learning.
They also talked about a child's perspective on the content we're trying to (or required to) teach, and how sometimes peppering students with questions might inhibit the questions that kids are constructing and pondering themselves.
I think that these questions, these genuine inquiry processes that are inspired by the curriculum but maybe not mandated verbatim, are the ones that open up space for meaningful learning. So the challenge becomes opening up space in the day, in the delivery and evolution of curriculum, in the interactions between students and teachers and students and one another, to acknowledge, encourage, and support this kind of inquiry and learning. Trilling and Fadel emphasize the idea that teachers should teach less, and learn more. How can school librarians teach less, and learn more? What does teaching look like and feel like if we "teach less"? What are the risks, and what might we learn? And what might our students learn?

CHAKOTAY: I know, but it's a problem we have to face now.
JANEWAY: What would that mean for the children? What kind of life would we be giving them aboard a starship, travelling through a potentially hostile part of space? And are we equipped to provide for their needs? Child care, educational facilities. We'd be building an entire community on board this ship. That's a massive commitment.
CHAKOTAY: Are you prepared to tell them they can't have children?
JANEWAY: I can't do that. And I've made it clear to Kes that it's her choice whether to have a child or not, but. There aren't any easy answers here. For any of us.
I think though that they've seen enough magic fixes, wormholes, the other Caretaker that they are still hoping for some kind of breakthrough. Once they established some communication with the Alpha quadrant that would have kept that hope alive as well. When did the E2 crew in ENT decide they needed to be a generational ship? Not in the first few years I'm sure.
Plan for the worst, hope for the best.
Just because they had seen some magic fixes as you put it doesn't mean that they'll continue to find them.
On the continent of wild endeavour in the mountains of solace and solitude there stood the citadel of the time lords, the oldest and most mighty race in the universe looking down on the galaxies below sworn never to interfere only to watch.

Contractions can feel like so many different things. I would suggest if you want to know if you are contracting, you should lay down. once in that position, you should feel the uterus and notice it is soft (except where the babies back and buttock is). you can then feel if the uterus titans up. It will feel hard, where you will not be able to indent the uterus.
You can always contact your healthcare provider and discuss this further. Good luck with the delivery.View Thread
I teach individuals about fetal kick counts. Twice a day you want to count movements. usually we do this when the baby is most active (after meals). you want to count 10 movements. once you count that many, you are done. many times it only takes a few minutes. What you are trying to learn is the normal fetal movements your baby has. If you have not felt 10 movements in an hour, extend it one more hour. if you still have not felt 10 movements in 2 hours, you need to contact your healthcare provider and go to labor and delivery to get monitored to make sure the baby is OK.
I would also suggest you contact your healthcare provider and let them know your concerns. They may want to check an ultrasound and make sure the baby is growing appropriately.View Thread
The question is what are you taking it for. Sinus infections, great medication. for urinary tract infections, not so much any more.View Thread
So, obviously, you should call!!! the worst thing is going and and coming home. It is not a big deal for us.
I get most disappointed when a patient has been taught about the signs and symptoms and does not call.
please contact your healthcare provdier and let them know.View Thread
Some easy ways to know is:
1. Can you walk up a flight of stairs without stopping
2. Can you walk a city block
If the answer is yes, I can do both, then probably you are OK. If not, you need an immediate evaluation.
Please don't hesitate to go to the hospital immediately to make sure you are OK> I take these symptoms very seriously.
Good luck.View Thread
I tell patients the procedure is like having blood drawn from the arm.
We know you are nervous and that is understandable. I just hope everything is OK with you and your pregnancy. Good luck to you. Let us know how things are.View Thread
The question is how much bleeding are you doing? Is the daily amount of the bleeding normal or increased.
This could be normal, but I would call and see them.
Congratulations, and I hope the bleeding stops.View Thread
You probably will feel better soon. I would suggest you meet and talk with your physician on your next visit.View Thread
It can be not a big deal or it can cause some significant risks of great harm to the growing fetus. You really need to be refered to a maternal fetal medicine subspecialist is is well trained in this area.
you may only need to have blood work done every month to having to have ultrasounds weekly ( to look at a blood vessel in the brain of the baby. it can help determine whether the fetus is anemic, low blood count).
If the fetus is thought to have anemia, then the maternal fetal medicine physician may need to put a needle in the umbilical cord of the fetus and see what the fetuses blood count is and possibly give a blood transfusion.
So, as you can see, it can be not much or it can be quite dangerous to the outcome of the fetus.
I wish you the best. please let me know if there is any other information I can provide to you.View Thread

Connect a duplicated Backup Exec NAS drive to Backup Exec
Let me outline what I do first.
All of my backups are backed up over the network to a NAS device, where they are stored on 16TB RAID drive system, called STORE1.
I have a second drive system that is the same size, and is a replicated copy of STORE1, called STORE2 located in a different building. It replicates all the changes that occurred on STORE1 to STORE2 each day, after the backups have finished. This is for disaster recovery, should a meteorite destroy the primary site. Or more likely, we have a fire in the server room.
My questions is... if STORE1 were to perish, Would I be able to hook up STORE2, by adding it as a backup destination, and would backup exec be smart enough to recognize this backup source? Would it just think that it is STORE1, because all the files are the same?
Alternatively, if I hooked up STORE1 and STORE2 at the same time Would BE freak out because I would have two drive locations with the same Id's?
Thanks for any clarification.
Comments 5 Comments • Jump to latest comment
Flat file copies (or replications) of Disk Storage locations are not recommended because you have only taken 1/3rd of a relational database.
If you take care to have ways to get the other 2/3 all time synched then probably no issues but if any one of the parts is out of synch you can get problems. (some of which are easy to work around, some not so easy.)
SO.... My primary building burns to the ground, everything is destroyed. All I have is the 1/3 backup tape you mentioned above. Are you saying that I'm not protected because I'm missing my inventory & catalog? Can I not rebuild my Inventory & Catalog, from my backup? I sure hope so!
If I were to send my backups to an external drive, then copy that drive to a different drive, then hook up that drive, Backup exec shouldn't be aware I've changed drives, since it just looks on the drive for it's Id. At least, that's the way I understood it from various things I've read.
This STORE2 that I have is for disaster recovery only. It's a replica of STORE1. It is there in case STORE1 dies. Should STORE1 die, then STORE2 can be connected to Backup Exec, and take over, without Backup Exec even noticing.
I think the line "A complete move of the data should not cause issues, because the media is marked as offline (so won't be re-used). An inventory job may still be needed once they (the data) are returned to a live B2D folder." in your linked document probably describes my process the best.
You can do an inventory and catalog to restore from whatever disk you want. However, there may be clashes when you just copy the .bkf and/or the .img files from one disk to another. See this document
Reasons why copying backup to disk data files is NOT recommended.
Of course, ifyou are to inventory and catalog a copied disk on a brand-new BE system, there would be no clashes.
That's the exact same document Collin posted above.
To me it is saying don't restore & backup INDIVIDUAL files or IMG folders, not entire B2D folders.
I'm replicating the entire B2D folder, to another location, that Backup exec doesn't see. Backup exec would only see this folder if STORE1 were to die.
Thanks for the feedback, because I now what my boundaries are.
In my experience with NAS devices, a true MPHA/MPIO configuration works that way.If they perform thier own replication and manage thier own failover systems then if one of these devices goes down the other picks up assuming its identity and open connections. In an instance like this Backup Exec wouldnt even know it happened.
What NAS devices are you using here? And how are you managing the replication between the devices?

I found deals all over my kmart was told to leave my cart with my name and number cuz computers were down and come back and my cart is gone :( I have 7 children I have to buy for and boy I am not happy with kmart
Our local Kmart closed this summer. In the 11 years we've lived in the area, I went there maybe 5 times- and it was way closer than Target. And each time I was reminded of why I never shop there. The only time it was good was when my daughter saw her "santa" gift in the back of the minivan. I bought a similar doll at Kmart because she had never been there. I'm sending you good vibes that the items that were in your cart are still on the shelves!
All K-Marts in Houston, TX closed. I believe it was because of bad customer service! So sorry this happened to you Jackie!
it might help to let corporate know…or it might just let you feel better!
I love Kmart clearance deals but like you everytime I go I'm reminded why I don't like shopping there. Even their Little Cesars store inside the store sucked. Mainly because Kmart workers run it. I waited almost an hour one time for a simple "hot and ready" pizza only to be told she forgot to make mine. I was livid and it was way past my kids lunch time so they were being fussy. Complained to the boss and got my money back. That was only one experience among a few others in Kmart. But I keep going back for their cheap prices on clearance.
That is awful, I hate Kmart with their horrible customer service!
I'd love this if I didn't have to go to Kmart! Kmart is a mile away from me and I absolutely detest it. Not worth it. Walmart shines in comparison. That should say something.
Our local kmarts are friendly…great CS. Guess I'm lucky…
You are lucky!
Our local Kmart is closing, however, I did go to one a few towns away and completely racked up! Totally unexpected too! Ive felt horrible for a few months because we found out my husbands job will be laying off in December so I knew Christmas would be scarce for my children this year. This trip made me feel better about that. I didnt need to spend the money but I knew the smile would be worth it. I got a larger Barbie set that included a big barbie, small barbie, trike, and bike, a butterfly barbie, a caterpillar game, a play-doh set, glitter moon doh, and a mini lego set for $35. Didnt find anything for my younger child, but those few items were a huge help!! Hopefully some of you guys can find these good deals too!
Wow! What an awesome haul you scored! Kudos on your great deal.
Saw this in my kmart today. This deal (local) has been going on since summer. The stuff is severely picked over. I can't tell what is new on the clearance but it's mostly junk. I did manage to find one of those counting jars my daughter may like..$10 to $3. Something under the tree ;) I'm honestly SHOCKED the place is still open. Mr. Kmart must have some daddy bucks behind him b/c the store hasn't had a soul in it for the nearly 15 years I've been working nextdoor. Horrible customer service is also the norm. Always has been in my experience.
i would cry tears of joy to find that knight bus for 15..i'm out on a hunt..one kmart locally going out of business, another is in scary part of town, but for 15 dollar knight bus, i'll risk it;)
Be safe and also check out barnes & noble .
I have gone to Kmart every time they have had this sale and just once it was bad, the rest of the times it was great as long as you are not just looking for one specific toy since not all of them are on clearance.
If you are a Shop your way rewards member (free to join) check your account since there are some Kmart coupons like $5 off $50. There are also Kmart coupons in the Kids Stuff coupon booklet. Thanks Collin and happy shopping! :)
PS: my local Kmart is also pretty scary, I make sure I just go there during the day…
Agree !
I will never shop at Kmart again. I live in Alabama and there is never anyone to help. And, when they offer help, they do not know where the product is located.
Check out Kmart online. I'm finding these deals or better online now.
Where? All I see is junk on clearance, LOL. Kmart is notorious for having an item on sale & then being out of stock when you try to buy it. Then, when they email that it's back in stock the price is higher. It's amazing that they are still around.
I bought a pair of Darth Vader slippers online and a Cannon fleece blanket. Online orders are in the back of the store with Lay a Way. Unfortunately for me, I went when there was a mother with a cart Full(and underneath) of toys she was putting on Lay a Way, a man picking up his Lay a Way purchase and another woman who paid off her Lay a Way off early to get her gaming system and needed to talk with some one about the 'early cancellation fee' she was charged. I waited 30 mins to be given my items and leave. If I had not purchased my items already, I would have walked.
Geeze ladies! Someone can't even make a simple sarcastic joke without you making rude little comebacks. "Pajamas are to sleep" lol lol lol
Sarcastic jokes ARE rude – she got what she asked for. By the way Angela, what else do you think pajamas are used for? Why is it funny to you that we're saying that pajamas are used for sleeping????
Wow, I never seen a cat fight on here before. This is a place to find out about good deals and save money. But here is my two cents. I take a shower everyday. There are days that I have put PJ's on after my shower. I've never went to the store in PJ's. Does it really matter what they wear. Isn't who they are that counts. People get so bent out of shape for no reason. Have a good day ladies:)
OMG I go into stores in sleep pants all the time. I dont see why eveyone is making a big deal out of it. Everyone can have their opion but my god there is no reason to bash people for waring some sleep pants.
I found great deals!!! Innotab games and mobigo games, Legos, barbies, chugginton and thomas trains, playdough, talking dinosaur train dinosaurs and much more! Thanks for encouraging me to spend more on toys lol!
Ooh i have a $5 gift card from black friday shopping. Hopefully some leap pad gmes will go clearance!
I went to kmart today and totally SCORED!!!! I had to ask if they had any more clearance toy areas. They were very kind and directed me to the- wait for- Garden section outside! LoL! But it looked like I was the first one to find it! I got $330 worth of toys for $118! 3 different Lego Harry Potter sets, Hot Wheels RC cars, Thomas the Train, Leapster Explorer games (they had leapster, leappad, and Tag games/books, too), Sing-a-ma-jigs, etc, etc!! Thank you!!!!!
When DH was deployed, my kids and I were feeling pretty down in the dumps one evening. So I decided to get silly and all four of us- from three months to thirty years- went to the grocery store in our pj's and bought ice cream, lol. You just never know!

NEWPORT–North Country's softball team held their annual Strike Out Cancer fundraiser to benefit the Relay for Life before and during their game against South Burlington.
While the pink-clad Falcons fell 4-2 to the Seahorses, both players and coaches were pleased with their fundraiser.
"This is something we plan all season and we try to make it bigger each year," said assistant coach Amanda Blaisdell.
"This year we had a great turnout, we had a lot more going on and I think we were more into it this year."
"This is our second year doing this, and the JV and varsity teams came together to do this for our community," said senior Sam Collins.
In the game's early innings the Falcons Kayla Desheneau and South Burlington's Kate Fitzgerald were locked in quite the pitchers duel.
Through the first three innings neither team could get anything going, but in the fourth, the Seahorses finally managed to get to Desheneau.
Allyssa Gamelin started things off with a single, and promptly stole second base. Brenna Deavitt singled, moving Gamelin to third.
Gamelin scored on a close play at the plate when the Falcons elected to go home with the ball hit by Sarah Bouvier.
Desheneau got some big help from a fellow Kayla when So. Burlington's Kayla Perrotte hit into a double play, leaving Deavitt on third with two outs.
Deavitt would score before the top of the fourth came to a close, and after four complete it was 2-0 in favor of the road team.
In the fifth Descheneau allowed a double, but thanks to some strong defense, the Falcons escaped the inning unfazed.
In the bottom of the fifth they went to work.
Anna Bingham walked to start the frame. Brandi Thornton laid down the sac bunt, but an error allowed Bingham to score all the way from first and landed Thornton at second. Kelsea Cutting got Brandi to third and in the next at bat Sam Collins drove her in with a single.
"I had two strikes and I knew I had to hit it. We had runners on base and I just hit the ball and we tied up the game," said Collins.
Said Blaisdell of the inning, "I think we just got fired up. Most of our focus in the beginning of the game was on our Strike Out Cancer, and it kind of took us out of game mode."
Knotted at two going into the sixth, Taylor Blake came in to pitch for the the Falcons, but things did not go according to plan.
After getting on base with a walk, Perrotte would eventually score on a past ball to give the Seahorses back the lead at 3-2.
Gamelin would double and score in the seventh to give South Burlington an insurance run, sealing the 4-2 win for the girls in blue.
Taylor Blake took the loss while Fitzgerald went the distance for the win, allowing just two hits.
The loss comes on the heels of North Country's 15-5 win over Milton on Thursday. Anna Bingham and Maddie Mosher each had three hits in the game while Desheneau had two doubles and picked up the win.
Now 2-5, the girls have a busy week, playing three games in four days starting on Tuesday when they host CVU.

Blue Angels Headline 2014 Chicago Air and Water Show
The 2014 Chicago Air & Water Show roars back to life this week. The 56th Chicago Air & Water Show will feature the return of military acts that missed last year's show due to sequestration. Crowd favorites the U.S. Navy Blue Angels will be the headline act, supported by the U.S. Army Golden Knights, U.S. Air Force F-22 Raptor and MV-22 Osprey. Although the military performances get much of the attention, the Chicago Air & Water Show has another stellar line-up of civilian performers and teams including Sean D. Tucker, Team Aeroshell, Chuck Aaron and the Red Bull Helicopter, Team Aerostars and the Warbird Heritage Museum foundation A-4 Skyhawk.
New to the Chicago Air & Water Show in 2014 is Team AeroDynamix, the largest aerobatic team in the world flying 12 RV-8, RV-7, and RV-8a kitplanes. We are scheduled to fly with them on Thursday and will share some photos and videos later in the week.
We have prepared our 2014 Chicago Air & Water Show guide which includes information on the performers and tips on the best places to watch the Chicago Air & Water Show. The city is expecting approximately two million people to come out this year, but if you are not a fan of big crowds we recommend checking out the Friday practice show. Teams will run their full performances in preparation for the weekend show. The practice show and the weekend shows will begin around 10am and run through 3pm with the finale being the performance by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels.
Whenever large crowds congregate it typically means you can expect slower than usual data connections for your smartphones. This year AT&T is planning to make sure the tweets, instagrams and Facebook posts of the millions enjoying the show can be shared with millions more. AT&T is testing a temporary antenna to boost signal in the area so your messages don't time out. Paul Biasco of DNAInfo reports that AT&T installed an 18-beam Luneburg Lens Antenna last week in preparation for the Chicago Air & Water Show. "It's the first time they have deployed the device anywhere in the country to combat what they call the 'look at me' or 'look where I am' effects."
Though, if you really want to capture the sights at the Chicago Air & Water Show we recommend this airshow photography guide to help you make the most of your photos from the event.

Norton Community Hospital plans to open $14 million surgical suite
NORTON, Va. - The Norton Community Hospital board of directors recently approved a $14 million construction project for a 17,000 square foot surgical suite that, upon completion, will be the largest and most modern in the Lenowisco health district of Southwest Virginia. "As chair of Norton Community Hospital's board of directors, I am pleased to announce to our community that a new surgical suite at Norton Community Hospital will soon be a reality," said Charles "Jibber" Ward, NCH board chair. "We were eager to renovate our operating rooms, but the opportunity to completely build a new surgical suite addition to NCH for relatively the same cost was a chance to change the project from good to great." Mark Leonard, MSHA vice president and CEO of NCH, said, "The new surgical suite will consist of four fully equipped operating rooms and three additional specialized rooms for endoscopy and urology. Other notable features include a new central sterile department, a spacious, six-bed recovery room, and a covered entrance for quick and easy patient access. This suite will provide our surgical patients with an environment that will rival any larger hospital and equip our surgeons with the best in surgical technology on the market today."
Dr. Luciano D'Amato, general surgeon with Southwest Surgical Clinic, added, "I've been doing surgeries at NCH for over 20 years, which equates to a lot of time in the operating room and to a lot of surgeries. I am very excited about the brand new surgical suite and being able to take care of my patients in such a state-of-the-art environment. The new suite will meet our surgical needs now and for many years to come."
Construction on the new NCH surgical suite will begin in November 2011 and be completed in November 2012.

US shuts 149 airport control towers
The US has announced that 149 airport control towers will be closed across the country beginning April 7 due to a budget saving implementation plan.
"We heard from communities across the country about the importance of their towers and these were very tough decisions," US Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said in a statement.
"Unfortunately we are faced with a series of difficult choices that we have to make to reach the required cuts under sequestration," Xinhua quoted LaHood as saying.
Roughly USD 85 billion of spending cuts started to hit various US governmental departments this year starting March 1. The spending cuts were included in the August 2011 debt reduction package.
Authorities will begin a four-week phased closure of the 149 air traffic control towers beginning April 7, part of its efforts to save USD 637 million spending this year, according to the statement.

I woke up this morning and looked out my front door to this "Cloudy Morning Sunrise". It looks like we will get some much needed rain today in Lane county. Of course the farmers in the area with cut hay in the fields are hoping other wise, me too because I can't go out and take pictures. I think the weatherman will have his way for once.

From Wikiquote
(Redirected from Traditions)
Tradition refers to belief or behavior within a group or society with symbolic meaning or special significance and origins in the past.
- Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about.
- G. K. Chesterton, in "The Ethics of Elfland," Orthodoxy (1908), p. 85
- Tradition is the living faith of the dead; traditionalism is the dead faith of the living. Tradition lives in conversation with the past, while remembering where we are and when we are and that it is we who have to decide. Traditionalism supposes that nothing should ever be done for the first time, so all that is needed to solve any problem is to arrive at the supposedly unanimous testimony of this homogenized tradition.
- Jaroslav Pelikan, The Vindication of Tradition (1984)
- Belief has its structures, and its symbols change. Its tradition changes. All the relationships within these forms are inter-dependent. We look at the symbols, we hope to read them, we hope for sharing and communication.
- Muriel Rukeyser, in The Life of Poetry (1949), p. 96
- You do not understand your own tradition if you do not see it in relation to others.
- John Searle, "The Storm Over the University", The New York Review of Books (6 December 1990)
- It is of the essence of traditions that they cover or conceal their humble foundations by erecting impressive edifices on them.
- Leo Strauss, Natural Right and History, p. 31
- The belief that the people of a democracy rule themselves through their elected representatives, though sanctified by tradition and made venerable by multiple repetitions, is actually mystical nonsense.
- Linda & Morris Tannehill, Ch. 4, "Government—An Unnecessary Evil", The Market for Liberty (1970), pp. 33.

Situated in the pedestrianised part of West Street, The Crown Inn was first recorded in 1841 as The Crown Brewery; it was then the nearest inn to the old market site. From around 1870 to the early 1900s, The Crown Brewery was run by the Cawte brothers. In the 1911 trade directory for Fareham, the premises were listed as the Crown Inn. The licensee was Mrs Clara Frost, who remained in charge for nearly twenty years.
The pedestrianised area of West Street also contains the Henry Cort Sculpture Park. Formally opened in April 2000, this permanent exhibition of sculptural ironwork celebrates the achievements of Henry Cort: 'Fareham's 18th-century Man of Iron'. Cort pioneered iron- refining processes which changed the course of industrial history and helped England to win the Napoleonic Wars in the early 19th century.

ordered these wheels for my scrambler 850. They fit perfect, just make sure to order the lugs with it. The description doesn't say that they're required over the stock ones but they are. for mine it was 10mm x 1.25 with the 14mm head. Threw a set of STI black diamond tires on and it makes the quad look and ride way better.Read All Reviews

I bought these rims mounted on Raz2s for a Polaris Outlaw 525s and have been very pleased so far. I have probably been on 5 rides and had two good wacks and these things have held up. Having the stronger sidewall tires may help a little but the pair rips! Only reason I deducted one star was because my front rims came with pits all the way around the inside lip (not visible from outside) but I still didn't like seeing it when I mounted them. Overall very pleased with my purchase.Read All Reviews

Divers spot tiger shark off Juno Beach
•By: James Wieland
Juno Beach -- Just north of the Juno pier, about 2.5 miles offshore, Cameron Nimmo and Mickey Smith were diving in about 80 feet of water with Emerald Charters. They were looking for sharks.
"Shark diving is my love and passion," Nimmo said.
While diving, they normally run into a lot of lemon sharks, hammerheads, and bull sharks. And have the video to prove it too! Check out their YouTube channel: SharkAddicts.
But this weekend, Nimmo saw something he had never seen before in our waters, a tiger shark.
"They are fairly rare around here, but encounters happen [they are] rarely filmed that close," said Nimmo.
Nimmo and Smith weren't scared though, they actually go out and hand feed the sharks.
"I get surrounded by seven bulls sharks and 15 to 20 lemons at a time, I don't have a fear in my bones toward sharks."
He was very excited to add a tiger shark to the list of underworld creatures he has run into.
"The tiger was my first encounter and it was a she, and she gave me a couple passes by. I loved every second! Just before I was filming a greater hammerhead on the surface during our interval."

Cool... so how does this perform compared with an Aopen Pandora with 512mb ram, Pentium M 1.73?
I'm interested in this for media use... can anyone comment? I assume the intel-mac-mini is already the one shipping, right?
Sorry for double-post, but in case you guys are interested:
In summary, Apply just released an official boot-loader for Intel-Macs, which will run Win XP natively. Great for Mac Mini's in cars.

Any ideas for putting a PC in this? :)
Wow that would be awesome for a car pc I wonder if the m2-atx will run a mac mini.
This makes a Macbook Pro a whole lot more attractive.....
mac forum
WTF... this really isnt mac-specific...all that segregation thing that scouse was talking about isnt really started by the Mac-users, but by NON-mac-users...
Jeez... fine... so close this thread since we cant have a thread with the word MAC in it outside the mac forum....

amazing, so glad he done it. can soo see msyelf now running a mac mini in the car, can run DashPC with a linux boot on it or other windows front ends on it. so awesome. All Hail JOBSS
When I read this story from BBC, I was like, "Wow... they have finally done it."
I have used Macs forever because the schools around here by them in bulk or something and they are crappier than crap (if that is possible). I have used G4's powerbooks everything. I completely hate OSX I don't really know why. Maybe a mac abused me as a child or something, but I like transparent windows, I like cool animations, but I absolutely hate OSX! The thing about macs are that they look stylish. Something you want to put in your living room, and not in a desk cubby. I built my own PC like everyone else here and I like it, but realistically, we are a small majority of computer buyers. Imagine a non geeky person walking into a store and seeing a shiny mac or a black box of a PC with seperate monitor and lots of cables and loud. Shiny wins everytime except for the OSX thing. People use Windows and mostly Microsoft apps. They need them! Also mac battery on laptop is much better than anything else. Also their screens are awesomely bright for cost. And finally noise. My Acer sounds like a jet when its hot. Macs don't even have fans!!!! So to put a hasty end on my rant, I hate OSX, but have recently turned into a pro-Mac running Windows kinda guy. I think many will follow, and many more will burn my house down...

HALLIBURTON CO. v. ERICA P. JOHN FUND, INC.
- 2010-2019
Former shareholders of Halliburton Company (Halliburton) filed a class action lawsuit against the company and argued that Halliburton falsified its financial statements and misrepresented projected earnings between 1999 and 2001. In their petition for class certification, the shareholders invoked the "fraud on the market" presumption to demonstrate their class-wide reliance on Halliburton's statements. The "fraud on the market" theory assumes that, in an efficient market, the price of a security reflects any material, public representation affecting that security. Therefore, under this theory, the law presumes that investors have relied on a material misstatement when they purchase a security at an artificially high or low price. The federal district court certified the shareholders as a class and prevented Halliburton from introducing evidence that the statements did not impact its stock prices at all. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit affirmed and held that Halliburton could not rebut the presumption that the plaintiffs relied on the statements until a trial on the merits of the plaintiffs' claims.
May Halliburton challenge the class certification of its former shareholders by introducing evidence that the alleged fraud did not impact the price of the stock?
Legal provision: Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Section 10-b
Yes. Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr. delivered the opinion for the 6-3 majority. The Court held that there was no reason to prevent defendants in a securities fraud case from presenting evidence regarding the impact of alleged misinformation on stock prices during the class certification stage. The Court also held that Halliburton was unable to provide adequate justification to overrule the established precedent that plaintiffs in securities fraud cases only need to prove a presumption of reliance on fraudulent information. The presumption standard is based on the generally agreed-upon principle that public information affects stock prices. Without any evidence that this principle was misunderstood or no longer reflects current economic realities, the presumption standard should remain. Additionally, because Congress had the opportunity to pass a law that created a new standard and chose not to do so, Congress clearly intended the presumption to stand.
In her concurring opinion, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote that, while allowing the defendants to present price-impact evidence at the class certification stage may broaden the scope of those proceedings, it should not present an undue burden to plaintiffs with legitimate claims. Justice Stephen G. Breyer and Justice Sonia Sotomayor joined in the concurrence.
Justice Clarence Thomas wrote an opinion concurring in the judgment in which he argued that the presumption of reliance standard should not be used because it is based on a flawed understanding of economics and effectively lowers the burden of proof for the plaintiffs. For these reasons, Justice Thomas argued that the decision in Basic v. Levinson—the decision that established the "fraud on the market" presumption standard—should be overruled. Justice Antonin Scalia and Justice Samuel A. Alito, Jr. joined in the concurrence.

Rosario Dawson's career has legs!
The actress has been in the biz since the age of 16, when she made her big screen debut in the movie "Kids"
And now, at the age of 33, she's starring in Danny Boyle's new film, "Trance" -- and is showing off her sexy physique in the new issue of Esquire.
Pause for a moment and take this in:
She looks great, doesn't she?
When asked to describe the moment she knew she could be a star, she tells the mag:
"[As a teen], I took a picture with my friend in a bikini. Around then, I didn't have it because I didn't want it. But I fit the clothes well, you know?"
Besides her hot bod, the photos also show off the actress' brand new 'do -- as she's seen sporting a half-shaved head, a la Rihanna, Skrillex and most recently Jenna Jameson.

With special sections on the older sibling; selecting the right physician; seasonal concerns and traveling with baby; managing childhood illnesses; and nurturing the adopted baby, the low-birthweight infant, and the baby with specific problems.

Mackey told police he fired shots into the ground, but was "not stupid enough to shoot it into the air."

Capitalize on the winter holidays to generate revenue and build your database toward the end of the year with Thanksgiving promotions
You should be taking advantage of every major holiday on the calendar to generate revenue and engagement with your audience by running themed contests, ballots, and deals stores.
Here are a few ideas for Thanksgiving promotions you can run throughout the month of November:
Keep reading to get tips for quickly and easily setting up all of these promotions, as well as to see a selection of sample branding for each.
Sweepstakes are a great way to build up your email database and social following. This year, grow your list in preparation for a Cyber Week deals store by running a sweepstakes at the beginning of October. The best theme for this time of year is something that connects to food and family, like a grocery store Thanksgiving dinner giveaway. You could also get creative and give away a dinnerware set or new appliances. How awesome would a new oven to cook the Thanksgiving Turkey to be? Here are a few more sponsor ideas:
- Local Grocery Store
- Farmer's Market
- Meat Market
- Specialty Food Stores
- Furniture Retailers
- Appliance Stores
- Movie Theaters
Remember that the bigger the prize, the more entries you'll receive. Try to keep the value above $100. If you are partnering with a grocery store, they could even use their co-op dollars from a seasonally relevant supplier like Butterball.
For more tips about how to set up and administer a successful sweepstakes contest, check out this article. One thing you always want to be sure to do is include an opt-in to grow your or your advertiser's email list. Craft it with an offer to encourage even more people to opt in! Examples for a Thanksgiving sweepstakes could include, "Yes, I would like to receive a Thanksgiving coupon book" or "Yes, I would like you to send me a collection of fantastic Thanksgiving Recipes from the sponsor."
Check out this gallery of branding from past Thanksgiving sweepstakes for even more inspiration:
Bring in additional revenue and generate audience engagement toward the end of the year by running a holiday ballot that includes categories relating to a variety of winter holidays, the first being Thanksgiving. Launch the ballot in early November and run it for a full month, ending in early December. A ballot like this is also a great way to crowdsource content for your winter holiday guide or programming. For a full list of categories and sub-categories to include, take a look at this article. You can see some branding from past Holiday Ballots below:
Thanksgiving is a great time of year to run a recipe contest since it's when people are thinking about cooking. You can call for entries of Thanksgiving recipes in general or you can get more specific, with a contest theme like Thanksgiving Desserts, Side Dishes, Turkey Preparation, Leftovers, and so on.
A recipe contest is a great one to run if you would like to engage a segment of your audience – such as cooks or moms – for a specific advertiser, like a grocery store. This niche opportunity is also a perfect way to crowdsource recipes to include in a special print section or on-air programming.
Since the barrier to entry is a little higher than it is for a sweepstakes, you want the prize to be worth more. Try to keep the prize value over $250 dollars. Other than that, look for the same sorts of prizes you would offer in a sweepstakes – new appliances, gift cards from the sponsor, and the like.
November is a time when many people are taking the time to review what they are thankful for. Create a feel-good essay contest to collect these stories and attract a sponsor who is interested in spreading the feelings of goodwill. You can also feature the stories from the contest in print or on air throughout the month to get even more out of the promotion.

What's really exciting these days are the new places popping up all over Bushwick Brooklyn! We recently went to this great small bar on Flushing Ave, called Narrows Bar. There's a wine store right around the corner from Roberta's, and next to that this new Sushi place.
Momo Sushi Shack
43 Bogart Street
(between Moore St & Grattan St)
Brooklyn, NY
Ryan found this new place on Yelp and the front was slightly worn down with no distinguishable signs, similar to Narrows. The place is owned by the same people that did Bozu in Williamsburge, which I have never been to, but Ryan has. However, I think this place is cheaper, with a communical bare eating space, and no alcohol. I think they let you bring your own bottle, and otherwise, they have soft drinks.
I wouldn't say this place is Japanese… just like I wouldn't say neo-rolls with cream cheese and lox isn't exactly traditional sushi. However, I like them. (And for the record, when my grandmother came over from Japan and she tried them, she liked them.) I'm not really purist like my father was (he was a Sushi Chef), but this place is like postmodern. They do "nigiri" (which is just another word for holding together – which connotes pressing the rice together with the fish) in "bomb" form with minced raw fish, rather than whole pieces. And everything is fresh, delicious, AND the kicker is they use pretty good rice. It's a good sushi place. I like how they are doing something completely different. Off the bat, they have all ready mixed soy sauce and wasabi for you. One pot is pure soy sauce, the other is 50/50, and the last pot is like 90% wasabi.
Now, let's get to the food. They have several fish, non fish meats, and vegetarian things here. It's great. Also, most appetizers on the menu are around $5-7 and extremely affordable. Most of the other places are under $10. First off, we ordered the ceviche with scallops (you can also get it with yellow tail). It's not your usual ceviche… and this must be my FAVORITE thing on the menu. I ordered this the first time and continued to order this (and the party platter) for all the other two times I've been here. The cevich comes with your choice of scallops or yellow tail, with salmon and avocado. It rests on a thin pool of grated yams (which I LOVE – grated thicker pieces than traditional Tororo) and topped with grated daikon. They have a dashi base favor where you don't need to add anything. They bring you small bowls if you have a guest and suggest that you mix and mash it up before eating.
We ordered some risotto rice croquettes. I LOVE Japanese cream croquettes (usually it's creamed corm or white sauce inside). I love anything fried, but these rice croquettes are yummy, savory and totally comforting. I would either order these or the stuffed mushrooms, which are super flavorful, hearty, and savory. I like a little savory variety.
The gyoza is pretty solid. We saw a couple of plates of these babies go out, so we had to grab one. They have a vegetarian variety, if that's the way you roll. This is a very tasty solid appetizer, along with the Japanese fried chicken. Japanese chicken is usually in wing form, tebasaki, or little boneless chunks of white and dark meat with a dark thick fried coating, which is slightly sweet. They do the latter very well here. (And their chicken is usually one of the specials).
Last but not least… Bombs – this is what is so distinguishing here. They make them similarly, I am guessing, to a nigiri (although I am sure they use a mold). the rice is good, not squished, and the toppings are ELEGANTLY molded and placed. We usually get the party platter with the spicy una bomb. From left to right, they gave us a salmon bomb, tuna bomb with avocado, unagi bomb, and a spicy tuna topped with daikon.
A meal for 2 here is typically anywhere from $30-40 with a variety of things. Get the bombs and ceviche, and experiment with other small dishes.

Tis' the season to be Fancy! It seems the word "fancy" is always rolling off our tongues when the holidays roll around. You may fancy a little bit of this or a little bit of that, but what you should really be fancying is a pair of "fancy pants." Now we aren't just talking about any kind of sparkly, leg hugging, tailored fabric. We have our eyes set on topliners that can transition flawlessly from day to night. Sport a sharp blazer and chiffon blouse with your pantaloons during the light of day, then ditch the jacket for a statement necklace and blazing stilettos to toast your evening festivities.
Lucky for us, these traffic stoppers come in all shapes, sizes and most importantly – textures. Perhaps you prefer to don pearl embroidered fancy pants or maybe you are more of a dutchess satin, wide-leg-fancy-pants-kind-of-girl. Either way, we have a slew of top picks that will keep you all shiny and new this season.
1. Christoper Kane Moire Pants 2. L'Agence Metallic Legging 3. 7 for All Mankind Brocade Pants 4. Balmain Pearl Pants

NFL officials met with U.S. Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan for five hours Wednesday in federal court, preparing for the beginning of formal mediation with the players the next day.
NFL general counsel Jeff Pash, senior vice presidents Dennis Curran (labor litigation) and Peter Ruocco (labor relations), outside counsel Bob Batterman, and local counsel Dan Connolly and Aaron Van Oort made up the league's six-man team. The group entered Boylan's chambers at 8:45 a.m. CT, and Connolly and Van Oort left approximately 30 minutes after arriving.
Pash, Batterman, Curran and Ruocco departed just before 3 p.m., with a one-hour lunch break taken in midday.
Unlock HQ Video HQ video delivered by Akamai "We appreciated the opportunity to speak with the chief magistrate judge today and review the issues with him in preparation of our session tomorrow," said Pash, the league's lead negotiator. "And we're looking forward to seeing the players and their representatives tomorrow morning."
Boylan will direct the mediation. And although he'll have an open line of communication with Judge Susan Nelson, who ordered the mediation Monday, these proceedings will be his. Boylan will not be required to report to Nelson.
Nelson ordered the mediation April 6 after hearing the players' request for an injunction to lift the NFL-imposed lockout. In the order, filed by the judge that same day, she said she will rule on the injunction "in due course" and that the mediation wouldn't serve as a de facto stay.
Both parties are expected to bring bigger contingents Thursday because of Nelson's directive that there be decision-making power in the room. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell will attend, along with some of the owners.
"I am also looking forward to resuming mediation talks tomorrow with players and their representatives," Goodell wrote Wednesday night on Twitter after participating in a conference call with Miami Dolphins season-ticket holders.
NFL Players Association executive DeMaurice Smith, officially added to the Brady class counsel Friday, is scheduled to attend, too, after withdrawing from a speaking event at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C., so he could be in Minnesota.
Boylan on Tuesday met with lawyers for the plaintiffs in the cases known as Brady et al v. National Football League et al and Eller et al v. National Football League et al, which were consolidated by Nelson earlier this week.
The separate meetings were intended to educate Boylan on the arguments of each side as he readies to preside over the mediation. Nelson on Monday also ordered the NFL and the players to file briefs to Boylan.
The players' contingent that met with Boylan for more than four hours Tuesday included a six-man team, including Hall of Famer Carl Eller himself from the Eller class. The Brady class was represented by NFLPA outside counsels Jeffrey Kessler and Jim Quinn and local counsel Barbara Berens.
The Brady class attorneys declined comment upon departure Tuesday, but the Eller group was positive while speaking in generalities about the meeting.
"The mediator was very open, it was a very constructive session, he heard from the Brady plaintiffs and the Eller plaintiffs as to what issues they considered that need to be addressed during mediation," said Michael Hausfeld, the lead attorney for the Eller class. "The mediator intends to have the same type of session tomorrow with the league and the owners, and then, hopefully, to bring everybody together on Thursday to see what areas of agreement can be achieved, and how quickly."
In light of Nelson granting the order to consolidate the cases, one issue for Boylan to understand is how the cases are aligned.
Said Hausfeld: "What happened today at mediation was, again, for the mediator to become knowledgeable about the positions of the Brady plaintiffs and the Eller plaintiffs, and understand their overlap and their positions on the respective issues."
This week's talks will be the first between the NFL and the players since 16 days of collective bargaining at the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service before mediator George Cohen ended March 11, the day the NFLPA decertified itself as a union and the NFL imposed the ongoing lockout.
Nelson has offered both sides protection in the court-ordered mediation, saying it cannot be used against either party in any other case.
