We know that business and education are firmly linked, but it seems to be most apparent when considering high school graduation rates and successful transition from high school to additional education and, eventually, work.
However, like most things in life, high school graduation and beyond is achieved in steps. By knowing those steps and the likely barriers to failure, we increase our chances for success.
For example, a study released last week at the American Educational Research Association convention in New Orleans issued this warning: A student who cant read on grade level by third grade is four times less likely to graduate by age 19 than a child who does read proficiently by that time. Add poverty to the mix, and a student is 13 times less likely to graduate on time than his or her proficient, wealthier peer.
This research, along with a host of other statistics, is the reason for Ohios Third Grade Reading Guarantee, part of a package of education policy backed by Governor John Kasich and approved by state lawmakers in spring 2012 as part of Senate Bill 316. Ohios Third Grade Reading Guarantee says that starting with students entering third grade in 2013-14, schools cannot promote to fourth grade those who score below a certain level on the state reading test.
The popular verbiage is that up until the end of third grade, children learn to read. After that, children read to learn. Its little wonder that children who struggle with reading also struggle with social studies, history, math and every other subject that uses a textbook.
So, knowing that this is a critical juncture, how do we intervene?
We entered a partnership with Marion City Schools in January to implement Project MORE (Mentoring in Ohio for Reading Excellence) as a pilot at McKinley Elementary School. Marion City Schools is providing materials, training and coordination for this evidence-based program to help children read, while United Way and the Retired Senior Volunteer Program provides volunteers. Currently, 15 third-graders are tutored four times each week by a group of 18 community volunteers with great results for both.
According to McKinley Elementary School Principal Rick Fogle, the children participating in Project MORE are changing more than their reading scores. They are developing a markedly different attitude toward school and learning. Again, its no big surprise that students feel better about school and learning when they equate it with the success theyre having.
Project MORE Coordinator Jan McCreary agrees that the children blossom in the program, both personally and educationally. Ongoing evaluation shows consistent gains in fluency and reading levels. Her goal, along with United Way, is that more than 80 percent of the children participating in the program will pass their Ohio Achievement Test for reading at the end of this school year.
And the mentors seem to like school again as much or more than the kids. They tell us that the scripted nature of the program makes it easy to work with their kids. The step-by-step instructions and lesson plans make it comfortable to participate, even if they have never taught a child before. Some of them have decided to volunteer more than once per week.
Marie McCreary teaches GED classes when shes not volunteering. She says the adults she teaches struggle more with everything because they do not read well. And many times those that can read do not easily comprehend what they read, making it much harder for them to decipher and understand technical materials and instructions in a job.
She has also noticed that children are able to pick up the subtleties and undercurrents of the English language much more easily than adults. Their brains are still forming and absorbing knowledge at an incredible rate. She believes its important to start earlier and tutoring third-graders will ultimately impact her other work.
Project MORE volunteer Georgie Murray believes every moment can be a teaching moment with kids.
She helps them to read, but also uses the stories to test their comprehension and teach other things.
Its important to her that Project MORE is based on evidence gathered from more than 300 schools across Ohio and that the time she invests in the program is yielding great results for the kids and for her. She says the volunteers are giving a whole lot to the kids, but getting back as much or more.
Both of these volunteers, like us, are keenly interested in seeing the results of their work. We will know in June.

This salad is a unique way to make a meal with fruit as the centerpiece. The combination of avocado and pumpkin seeds (also known as pepitas) give this dish substance and crunch. Grapefruit and lime juice add sparkle and balance the flavors. Perfect for a warm summer evening or a special lunch.
Serves 2 to 4
2 grapefruits, peeled and sliced into wedges
¼ cup pumpkin seeds
1 avocado, halved, peeled, and cut into wedges
½ red onion, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons raw honey
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Roast the pumpkin seeds in a dry skillet until they begin to pop and brown. On a bed of arugula, arrange grapefruit wedges, onions, and avocado. Whisk together honey and lime and drizzle on top of fruit. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds, and serve.
This salad is nutrient dense and Paleolithic in nature. To begin with, grapefruits are packed with the phytonutrient naringenin, which has been shown in animal studies to help make insulin more effective than it is on its own, and, in human studies, to help with weight loss. Next, avocados are a great source of glutathione, which helps our liver detoxification processes, and bita stitosterol, which helps lower our cholesterol levels. They are also more than 70 percent monounsaturated fat, helping reduce our risk for developing type-2 diabetes. Pumpkin seeds are a great source of minerals and trace minerals, most notably zinc and magnesium. Men can eat pumpkin seeds or pumpkin-seed butter regularly to reduce their risk of prostate cancer.

I'm listening to some lectures by Professor Thomas Williams of The University of South Florida, on medieval philosophy. In regards to the question in this posts' title, he notes:
1) No one has ever discovered this actual question in any medieval text; and
2) When angels were discussed in medieval philosophy, they were used in the same way as modern philosophers employ zombies and brains-in-vats. (That is not to say medieval philosophers did not believe in angels!)
"Let me be represented as one who trusts his senses, who thinks he knows the things he sees and feels, and entertains no doubts of their existence." -- Bishop Berkeley

How Many Angels Can Dance on the Head of a Pin?
2 comments:
Even supposing that people did discuss the question, I'm not sure why that would be such a bad thing. People today will spend countless hours arguing over whether Chewbacca or Spock would win in a fight, etc. Idle conversation can be entertaining, and is going to come in any civilization where people have more than a minimal amount of leisure. And the angels question is at least more elevated than many of the idle questions were argue about today.ReplyDelete

Some of us are homebodies, and some are jet setters. But a new study suggests that people, regardless of travel habits, follow the same general patterns of motion, spending the bulk of their time in a few favorite spots. The conclusions, obtained by tracking thousands of mobile phone users, could help researchers devise more accurate models of disease outbreaks.
Human travel routines affect how a virus will spread during an epidemic. But monitoring large numbers of people isn't easy. A 2006 study using hundreds of thousands of dollar bills as surrogates found that a typical bill circulated within a small area but could also travel long distances when its owner went on a trip or vacation (ScienceNOW, 25 January 2006). It wasn't clear whether this pattern reflected the movements of individuals, however, because a dollar bill can easily change hands.
So physicist Albert-László Barabási and colleagues at Northeastern University in Boston turned to the most ubiquitous of human accessories: the cell phone. They monitored 100,000 users for 6 months and recorded the location of the cell phone tower that transmitted each call or text message. The team found that most people stayed close to home, and a select few regularly took long trips. This mixed profile suggests that the typical journey seen in the dollar bill study had at least partially captured the movements of multiple people rather than individuals, the team reports today in Nature.
The researchers then ranked each user's favorite spots and found that regardless of how mobile they were, people returned over and over to a few top locations with similar probability. For example, two users would have roughly the same chance of being found in their third-favorite spots, whether it was the gym or the theater. These hangouts were often located near the path between their top two destinations--usually home and work. "It indicates that there's something fundamental in the way we move around," says Barabási.
Daniel ben-Avraham, a physicist at Clarkson University in Potsdam, New York, thinks the decision to track cell phones is "brilliant. If you really want to study mobility of people, that's the way to do it," he says. But Stephen Eubank, a physicist at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in Blacksburg, says scientists can't assume that the patterns found in the study will hold true under different conditions. Changes such as the collapse of a bridge or the rising price of gasoline, he says, could alter people's behavior in ways that would affect their overall movements.

Never Summer SL & K2 Auto Uprise
Board: Never Summer SL 161 Bindings: K2 Auto Uprise
I got this setup as a quiver killer. Ive always had a lot of boards and I usually bring 2 to the hill in case 1 breaks or I feel like doing different things on the hill. Conditions I've ridden with it are pretty much everything but bottomless pow and death cookies. I weigh about 200 lbs. I usually ride anything from a 155 to a 166. I ride 75% in the glades. The tighter the better.
My opinions:
First off the bindings: They are what I would call a light mid stiff binding. About a half notch softer than middle of the road. They are super comfy and I really like the added benefit of the canted footbeds. It really seems to keep me centered over the board better and reduces fatigue. Only drawback is I find the canted footbeds take away a little of my ability to do presses. I can however seem to get a little more pop out of the board with them. In case you were wondering yes I have ridden a SL with regular bindings (Rome 390) The auto setup is a little but weird and was much slower than a normal binding to get in and out of for my first couple runs. By the beginning of my 2nd day on them however I would say that I am about the same as a normal binding but as I get better with them I see them just getting easier and faster to deal with. Forward lean adjustment is a little weird but once its setup it has no real possibility of ever moving and it saves clutter on the highback. Overall I was very impressed with these. Never ridden K2 before but I like them.
This board does everything well. As long as there is snow in the trees that is where you will find me. In the woods you can find every snow surface imaginable other than manmade groomer crud and death cookies. The SL deals with all of them well. It is great having a board that I can ride with no real setback to give me the most control on hardpack and ice. The board rides loose edge to edge because of the rocker between the feet so it turns like a 155 but it still rides like the 161 that it is when you dig in your edge. The benefits of a short board and a long board. Really is great. The rocker also allows it to float incredibly well without having to move the bindings back. Ive only been in fresh that is about 20" at its best so I haven't tested in in the bottomless pow but I have pow boards for that. I wanted something that can handle searching for some freshies after the snow is showing some signs of use and this board excels at that. Tight trees mean low to mid speeds weather its steep or not. For high speeds look for a little stiffer of a board.
Rating for different conditions
Windblown ice & hardpack to get to the glades: B not amazing but it does it well.
Bumped up chop & crud beat up tracked up snow: A- turns fast enough to avoid the nastiest bits and damp enough to deal with what you do hit just not for missleing through it
Tracked trees: A+ great going from tracks to fresh just eats it all up regardless of whats under you
Freshies: A+ A foot and a half of fresh snow and this board just comes alive. Floats easy, turns fast and loves to slash the snow and pop off little rollers. Deeper and you would be better off on a pintail but this thing would have no real trouble unless you had sized down.
Park: A My park is rollers, rocks, cliffs & trees and this board will eat up anything. I avoid manmade parks because big air to icy landings is just a stupid idea. It deals with natural features very well. The rocker makes it very forgiving.
Groomer Cruising: A- If you like to go mach 12 then this isnt the board for you. If you like to just cruise around and maybe go a little slower and play around then its great. Real forgiving, loose, and playful.

Comments, questions and tips
I was pleasantly surprised by how tasty this pie was! As other people have said, the photo doesn't do it justice. The sauce is thick and delicious and the flavours are fantastic. I used less pastry than the recipe suggested and managed to get it under 500 calories per portion. Check it out on my blog http://www.curlyscooking.co.uk/?p=1791
Made this for dinner today, it was really tasty, but if I do it again, I would be careful not to boil the sauce for too long. It was a little on the sticky side rather than a thick gravy, so tasted a bit dry. That said, it was a lovely combination of flavours, especially with the sausages having leeks in too!

Valley Christian Academy Reviews
This school is for kids who want to work hard and have a successful future. They are strict academically, in behavior, spiritually, and dress code. Dress code since it is a Baptist school. The males are recquired to wear jeans and a collared shirt everyday. Females are recquired to wear knee-length skirts, blouses and closed shoes for elementary, and you may wear open toed for junior high to high school.Girls are NOT allowed to wear tank tops, blouses (t-shirts) need to be at least four fingers across the shoulder, and at least 3 fingers below the collar bone. Homework is a bit heavy, but it keeps kids responsible. The school has talented, and kind teachers, and they actually teach your children, they keep your mind spiritually involved, and helps ypu walk closer and closer to the Lord. Valley Christian Academy is an excellent school.

As I have been researching topics for my post this week I ran across a concept that specifically applied to a web site I am designing. The web site uses the colors of crayon green and crayon yellow. As I looked at the header I was designing, I wondered how well the colors would look to someone who was color blind. I wasn't sure if I had enough contrast.
According to Wikipedia: "Contrast is the difference in visual properties that makes an object … distinguishable from other objects and the background."
7 – 8% of the population is color blind. Another portion of the population has low-vision needs. According to the Web Designer Depot there is more to contrast than color. "Creating a structure of importance using size, shape and color is what gives a page impact and legibility to the reader."
According to A List Apart contrast "…it's the essential ingredient that makes content accessible to every viewer." Accessibility is an important component of design. If you want people to read your text and see your graphics you need contrast.
I guess I better get back to work and check the various components of contrast: size, shape, color, position, hierarchy of visual importance, etc. Contrast is "…about finding better and more efficient ways of communicating the message behind the design." Wish me well!

Salentein (Argentina) Selection 2006
A wine of the week once before for the 2004 vintage, when it was known as 'MCM', this now gets it's Sunday best full name of 'Malbec, Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot' on the label. I visited Salentein in Mendoza not so long ago and it is a most impressive winery, turning out a really good range of wines at modest prices. Argentina is the source of some really excellent, big-hearted reds made from Malbec of course, but the addition of Cabernet and Merlot in this French oak-aged bottling gives a rich, warming nose of blackcurrant and blueberry, with smoky, plummy notes and some cedary spice. It fills the mouth with sweet black fruit with touches of coffee, more spices and chocolate, delivering a plush but quite complex mouthful of wine. Big, but certainly beautiful at a most unpretentious price, this also lingers on the palate with a good balance of spicy tannins and acidity. Really lives up to the old cliché of 'over-delivering' this one. £7.99, Tesco.

›› Photos: Ex-state Sen. Eliot Shapleigh holds meeting on EPISD
Community members on Wednesday criticized a culture of cheating children and retaliating against employees who took a stand against the administration at the El Paso Independent School District.
Former state Sen. Eliot Shapleigh simply posed one question to most of the speakers: "What are you going to do about it?"
More than 200 people attended a town hall meeting at El Paso Community College's Valle Verde Campus hosted by Shapleigh to encourage the community to take action and find ways of fixing the scandal-plagued school district.
"These kids deserve better, and tonight is about making it better," Shapleigh said. "It's going to take community action to fix what is arguably our most important public institution. What I'm going to ask you to do is act."
After teachers and parents approached him with complaints, Shapleigh in 2010 first publicly alleged that district administrators rigged standardized test scores by having students "disappeared" from campuses.
Among the allegations were that the district kicked some students out of school, had some deported to Mexico, retained some students in ninth grade and promoted others to 11th grade to prevent them from taking 10th-grade standardized tests, which are used in federal accountability standards.
Last month, former EPISD Superintendent Lorenzo García pleaded guilty to two counts of conspiracy to commit mail fraud including conspiring with at least six others to artificially inflate standardized test scores to secure federal funding and earn bonuses.
Shapleigh's allegations were reflected in the federal charging document against García.
Former Bowie teacher Patricia Padilla said she is haunted by some of the faces of students who went to her pleading for help after they were told by administrators they could no longer attend school.
Tears filled Padilla's eyes as she spoke about a 19-year-old student classified as a ninth-grader who went to her crying after she was kicked out of Bowie. Padilla said all she could tell the student "It's not right. Stand up for yourself.
"You saw little girls or young men told they can't go back to school, and the board and superintendent aren't listening to them," Padilla said. "We have to look for them. What about their life? Their life has been wasted É I close my eyes sometimes and I see their faces. God, give them the courage to come back."
She said the district needs to find and reach out to students who were denied an education or whose transcripts were improperly changed.
After taking concerns to Shapleigh in 2009 of students with improper grade promotions and others who had taken four years of high-school English courses in one semester, Padilla said, administrators threatened to audit her for meeting with Shapleigh.
Padilla said school board President Isela Castañon-Williams approached her after Wednesday's meeting and said that no one would retaliate against her for speaking publicly about the issues she faced at Bowie High. Castañon-Williams walked away from El Paso Times reporters seeking interviews with her after the meeting.
Deborah Svedman, a former math teacher who worked in the El Paso school district for 28 years and retired from Bowie High in 2008, said she taught several students who were "disappeared" to prevent them from taking the Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills standardized tests.
Svedman said the school board needs to be purged, claiming that they were too loyal to García.
"The school board acquiesced to García's demand to give him full control over the hiring, firing and job assigning at central office and for placement of high-school principals," Svedman said. "Thus began the reassignment or replacement of qualified and ethical personnel."
She said the school board should not fill any central administration positions until García's alleged, and so far unnamed, co-conspirators face charges.
The district needs a school board that is not ignorant of its powers and rights as an elected body, said Frances Wever, a retired teacher and former president of the El Paso Federation of Teachers and Support Personnel.
Two trustees have said they were unaware until several months ago that it was part of their job to have the district's internal auditor report directly to the board.
"They need to quit taking policies from É (the Texas Association of School Boards) and make their own," said Wever, whose husband, Dan Wever, is a former EPISD trustee. "We need board members that will stand up and say, 'No. Our children are first and we're not doing this anymore.'"
The next town hall meeting will take place at the University of Texas at El Paso in about two weeks.
Shapleigh said it was "great" that current and former teachers had the courage to speak about problems they faced trying to help students.
"Ms. Padilla at Bowie was threatened and retaliated against," Shapleigh said. "Other teachers described a culture of fear, intimidation and retaliation. That fear has to go away."

Sammy's sausage pizza was a family favorite. My brother Randy and I would always pick one or two of the sausage meatballs off the pizza before we started eating and it was never a problem. I remember one time, however, I went a bit overboard and ate more than half the sausage off the pizza before the rest of the family got to the kitchen to sit down for dinner. When I realized how many pieces I'd consumed and how bare the pizza looked I set about reorganizing the remaining sausage to hide the crime and then placed the pizza back in the package and left the kitchen to disassociate myself with the event. When Mom called us to the table, no one said a word, but the next time we ordered the sausage pizza from Sammy's, Mom served the pizza as soon as Dad brought it home and then before anyone ate, Mom, without a word removed the pieces of sausage from the pizza on my plate and placed them on her pieces, my father's and my brother's while I sat staring at my bare pieces of Sammy's Pizza. It was still good!

Okay so the short of the long is I had a nasty fall in the summer where I landed on my hand. Went to the ER and everything xrayed fine and they didn't investigate any further. Wrapped my wrist and said it was sprained.
6 months later I was slowly losing use of my right hand. It felt tired and sore. I saw the surgeon who had done my carpal tunnel surgery thinking it might have been from that. He sent me for an anthrogram and it came back showing all the little ligaments in my carpal joint were torn. He referred me to an orthopedic and now i'm on a waiting list.
However since the anthrogram its gotten worse to the point I have a hard time holding a pen. I have a splint that has stabilizers on top and bottom and go to my knuckles. But its not helping. My hand is always cold, i'm losing range of motion and my ring and pinky finger down into my wrist are pins and needles. It feels like something is scratching my hand non stop and tingles and just freaking hurts like heck.
The waiting list for the orthopedic is long. I am on a cancellation list but I am still facing months before getting in. I really don't know what to do. I have a desk job where I am typing all day and writing but its getting harder and harder. Its my right hand and i'm right hand dominant. Should I call the orthopedic and tell them how bad its getting? Or should I go to the ER? I basically am losing circulation in my hand which can't be good. And a week of this pins and needles and tingle feeling is really not comfortable. I am scared that the long term damage is going to keep getting worse if it continues like this.

text: [[quoteright:350:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/12031_1226.jpg]]'''''Agatha Christie's Great Detectives Poirot and Marple''''' (アガサÀクリスティーの名探偵ポワロとマープル '''''Agasa Kurisutī no Meitantei Powaro to Māpuru?''''') is an anime television series that adapted several Creator/AgathaChristie stories about Literature/HerculePoirot and Literature/MissMarple. Run from 2004 to 2005, a total of 39 episodes.A new character named Mabel West, Miss Marple's great-niece, who becomes Poirot's junior assistant, is used to connect the two detectives. The series is a generally faithful adaptation of the original stories given the time constraints (typically one 25 minute episode for a short story, four episodes for a novel). Despite being a modern Japanese adaptation, the original (mainly English) locations and time period are retained. The most obvious story change is the addition of Mabel West and her pet duck, Oliver. However apart from her soliloquies, most of her lines are taken from the incidental dialogue of other characters in the original stories, so her presence does not materially alter the plot development.----!!''Agatha Christie's Great Detectives Poirot and Marple'' provides examples of the follwing tropes:* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Hastings looks much younger than usual.* BigFancyHouse: Several feature in the series.* CanonForeigner: Mabel West.* CatStereotype: In one of the episodes, a black cat crosses someone's path. In keeping with British and Asian tradition, it is associated with good luck.* CompositeCharacter: Most of Mabel's lines are taken from the incidental dialogue of other characters in the original stories.* GenteelInterbellumSetting: The setting of the stories.* GreatDetective: Both Poirot and Miss Marple are superb detectives.* InspectorLestrade: Inspector Sharpe is a UsefulNotes/ScotlandYard police detective that works with Poirot on most of his cases. While he is reasonably competent, it is always Poirot that is able to solve the mystery first.* LittleOldLadyInvestigates: Miss Marple is an elderly AmateurSleuth that investigates various mysteries.* TheMafia: Plays a role in "The Riddle of the Cheap Flat"* MysteryArc: Nearly all the episodes use some variation on this.* RidiculouslyCuteCritter: Oliver (Maybelle's pet duck)* SailorFuku: Maybelle sometimes wears a sailor suit style outfit.* SpotOfTea: Pretty much every episode will include characters having tea together, which is something common to both Japanese and British culture. * SpyFiction: "The Riddle of the Cheap Flat" involves stolen US Navy plans.* TravelMontage: The anime uses the method of having a moving line on a map to indicate traveling long distances.----

The Golden Globes incite a variety of reactions from the nominees. From the sleeping to the grateful, many TV stars shared their feelings about the honor.
Showtime cleaned up in the nominations with "Homeland" picking up three nominations in the acting categories and one for Best Drama Series. Matt LeBlanc and Don Cheadle were also nominated for their Showtime comedies.
In a somewhat unusual twist, NBC's "Smash" will go up against comedies "Modern Family," "Episodes," "The Big Bang Theory" and "Girls" in the Best Comedy or Musical Series category.
Take a gander at the reactions of some of TV's biggest names below.
"It's an incredible honor to be nominated again for a show that I am so proud to be a part of. And I am thrilled that the show has been recognized as well because everyone involved works so hard. Thank you Hollywood Foreign Press."
"Everyone who is involved with 'Smash,' whether on the outskirts or at the epicenter, is thrilled and dancing in the aisles this morning on this wonderful news," Steven Spielberg, executive producer of "Smash," said in a statement. "I'm absolutely thrilled to be in such wonderful company and to be honored by the HFPA," Katharine McPhee said. "Seeing our show in that company is thrilling and amazing," Megan Hilty said.
"I'm over the moon for the nom. This is a great show and a great cast and this is a recognition of all of us ... But mostly me."
"I can't wait to see Daniel Day Lewis. I'm wondering if he'll still be in character as Lincoln." [via AP]
"This is a good way to wake up." [via AP]
"I'm in a van on my way to Queens to do `30 Rock.' I heard the news this morning right before yoga. I was just about to shut off my phone. Unfortunately, I knew the nominations were being announced, so I was worried." [via AP]
"On behalf of the entire 'Homeland' team, we want to thank the Hollywood Foreign Press for recognizing us again this year. We also want to congratulate our fellow nominees; it's an honor to be in such good company.
"Just so happy to have a really good reason to stop Christmas shopping for a day. Opening a bottle immediately to celebrate my Golden Globe nomination for 'Homeland.' I'm thrilled that Claire and Mandy were also nominated for their performances, and look forward to celebrating with the whole cast in Los Angeles in January. Thank you HFPA!" [via ET]
"As an actor you look for roles that are rich, complicated, and that stretch you and this year I was blessed to find two. To have the chance to play them was a gift in itself and to then be acknowledged this way is icing on the cake. Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press!" [via ET]
"This is such an exciting week! I'm so grateful to the Hollywood Foreign Press for this nomination. There's no one more fun to play then Gloria and I feel lucky every day I get to be on set with m 'Modern Family.' I'm so happy for Eric and of course the rest of my cast for our nomination." [via ET]
"I'd like to say a big thank you to The Hollywood Foreign Press. I am really thrilled as this recognition is for a piece of work I'm very proud of and had such a good time on." [via ET]
"'Damages' was one of the greatest adventures of my career. I am deeply grateful to The Hollywood Foreign Press for their recognition of my work in our final season. I represent our entire 'Damages' team in thanking them for their support over the past five years. Patty Hewes was the inspiration of a brilliant team of writers, honed by her interactions with a remarkable roster of guest stars. I couldn't have had a better partner in the exquisite Rose Byrne. The relationship of Patty Hewes and Ellen Parsons is unique storytelling. Their journey resulted in what I think is a great modern American tragedy that will stand the test of time." [via ET]
"This is an incredible honor and the most wonderful ending to an amazing year. Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press. I'm thrilled to share this with our amazing cast and crew." [via ET]
"I'm so grateful to be able to play Nucky, it never gets old." [via ET]
"What a great day for all of us on Political Animals! My heartfelt thanks to all the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association for this significant recognition of everyone's work. I am especially delighted for Greg Berlanti and USA. I am blown away personally to be nominated for my work as the beguiling and indomitable Elaine Barish Hammond. Hooray and thank you so much!" [via ET]
"It is an honor to be nominated for 'American Horror Story: Asylum.' Ryan Murphy has again created a challenging character for me to play and it is a privilege to work with such a talented group of actors on this one-of-a kind show. Thank you to the Hollywood Foreign Press for this nomination." [via ET]
"I am thrilled to be a part of this company. Working on 'Homeland' has been one of the joys of my life. We have such gifted writers -- I have to pinch myself every day that I get to be a part of this company. Still -- the real big news we are all waiting for is Claire's baby. When I get that call, the fireworks will really start." [via ET]
"The cast, crew and staff of 'The Newsroom' are humbled to be in such elite company and we look forward to dramatizing this nomination a year and a half from now." [via ET]

|VisitKorea does not guarantee the quality of products or services introduced on its site and is not responsible for any direct or indirect losses resulting from use of said products or services.
Street, known as the street for young people, is the former location of Seoul National University. In the 1980s, many theater groups started moving to Daehangno, and it soon developed into a cultural center. In a short period of time, movie theaters, live-cafes, regular cafes and pubs sprung up, and it grew into an entertainment district. Its popularity is still maintained by famous small theaters such as Parangsae (Blue Bird) Theater and Hakjeong Theater, and some 30 additional theaters have concentrated here to contribute in keeping Daehangno as the root of performance art in Korea.
The center of Daehangno, Marronnier Park, has frequent live acts and dance performances by young people. This is why Daehangno is called the "Play Mecca" and "Young Street" as well. Another reason Daehangno became so popular with young people is the various interesting sights and food to be found here. Many restaurants, fast food joints, cafes, and bars are concentrated here, making it convenient for people to find something to do after plays and live-performances. Its unique atmosphere and space continues to be loved by many young people.

I bought 4 yards of denim recently to make jeans, and boy do I regret this purchase. The fabric is incredibly stiff. I washed it once, but it is still very stiff.
Does anyone have any suggestions for softening up this fabric?
------No matter what they tell you, you don't have to stay within the lines.
Washing with an enzyme might work - I don't know how easy it is to buy the ones that are used for commercial fabric production, but it may be worth a shot. Otherwise, you could scrub with pumice stones, but that would be a lot of work :)
Use a can or two of coke with your wash. Here's the link to a previous PR thread on this topic.
------I'm finally a blogger!
Thanks very much for your replies. I read the postings on the link, and I will use the same principle of the coke, by useing vinegar. I have that readily on hand. I dont generally have soda on hand at home. Thanks again.

Create a manual other goal that you will find something positive about yourself and/or your life every day. To get your point for tracking the goal you will need to consider yourself and your day to find the positives! Small or big, a positive is a positive.
I had already lost 2 pounds but I went on vacation and put them back on, although my clothes seem to be loser. I am back on track with positive thinking and the need to lose weight so I can feel better.9
I have stayed on track and positive when I help others. Getting on the Teams and commenting to the posts help me see how I am doing. I remember that when I am doing poorly, I don't treat others the way I treat myself and then I get going again.
If I need help staying positive, I always Google positive quotes and that gets me back on track :)

Elegant 3 story town home overlooking the Savannah River and Emmett Park, offering spectacular, panoramic views of the city from the wrap around terrace deck. This unique, one of a kind property, combines the sophisticated urban environment of Savannah's Landmark Historic District with waterfront living. This historic structure, circa 1892, previously the "Ships of the Sea Museum," was converted into a residential space using the only the finest craftsmanship, custom finishes, and exquisite appointments throughout. An elevator connects all levels. The main level features an open floor plan with a fully outfitted gourmet kitchen, 2 gas fireplaces, a library with custom built-ins, a powder room, and a grand living space with a dining room area. The soaring 17 foot tin ceilings and the beautiful wood flooring are original to the building. The ceilings have been faux painted and the custom Schumacher wallpaper is handmade and was chosen to compliment the colors of the river below. The distinguishing architectural feature of the main level is a spectacular custom glass spiral staircase, rising from the lower bedroom level to the roof terrace. Natural light cascades into the room from above, and the expansive views to the river, can be seen through the glass as you enter from the foyer. The curve of the staircase is repeated in the walls and doorways that surround it. A center door opens to a wrought iron balcony, where you may choose to watch the ships,or enjoy the spectacular view. The lower level has a separate entry and the floors are custom poured resin, with 20 layers for cushioned comfort. The master suite has an elegant bathroom and an adjoining room, which is currently used as an office. All windows look toward the river. 2 other guest bedrooms, each with its own bathroom surround the curve of the glass staircase. The original brick walls and exposed beams were left to reflect the character of the building. The 3rd floor terrace, is truly spectacular, with its dramatic circular 8 'glass dome. It has 2 levels of decking, a gas grill and a potting shed. Enjoy amazing views of the city skyline, watch the ships as they pass on the river below, or simply watch the sunset. The perfect spot for entertaining!
Savannah is a muse and a model. A muse for writers and artists who've fallen under the city's spell and a model for the modern historic preservation movement. The latter drives Savannah's tourism industry. In 1955, the Historic Savannah Foundation was created to save hundreds of significant but decaying buildings from the wrecking ball.进一步了解Savannah的豪宅

The Oswegatchie River Cliff House
The Rebirth of a Barn - The Creation of a Lodge
Green Lodging at its Best!
"Hello lucky guests to follow! We've been the first to inaugurate this magnificent Cliff House. To anyone seeking aesthetic perfection, peace, beauty, and kind and caring hosts, congratulations. You've found it all.We've had a wonderful week and are in awe of the way Dale and Sophie have created this very, very special place. It's so much more than a "vacation" stop. Everything about this place and setting has been memorable. Enjoy! And thanks Dale and Sophie!"
Richard Luby, Susan KlebanowChapel Hill, NC
Click here to read more thoughts from our guests!
The 2100 sq. ft. lodge has been fashioned from an antique timber frame barn that was dismantled in Canada and transported to our property for a barn raising in October of '07. Over the next two years it was rebuilt on the cliffs overlooking a remote section of the Oswegatchie River, one of the most pristine and clean rivers in the upstate NY and 1000 Islands region. Our firm, Antique Woods and Colonial Restorations, has been restoring historic barns and houses all over America for over 35 years now. We have tried to incorporate all the best design features and wonderful aged woods into our lodge that we have encountered in our past years doing this kind of work. If you are a historic barn lover, or fan of old timber frame construction, you will find our new lodge to be an absolute gem.
Our Barn home/Lodge exposes all the original timber frame and rafters and has cathedral ceilings in the kitchen, dining and great room and two upstairs bedrooms. All these antique woods have been gleaned from other historic structures. We designed our custom kitchen using reclaimed cabinet boxes and our craftsmen made new doors and drawer fronts using aged wormy chestnut which we finished with tongue oil. Our counter tops are all 2 inch reclaimed oak and elm barn planking and finished with mineral oil and beeswax for a soft food safe finish.
The kitchen, dining room and great room are all connected and there is a loft and open stairs that all face a large wall of glass that overlooks the Oswegatchie River through the pine trees. This wonderfully beautiful and private area where the lodge is located is back off a small country road about ¼ mile in the forest and sits in a grove of tall pine, oak and ash trees.
From the Great Room, three sliding glass doors lead to a large 30-foot deck which provides a wonderful place to eat and relax under the tall pine trees. From here you have a spectacular elevated view of the Oswegatchie River as it meanders down through this remote and practically inaccessible section of the river. You will not see any other houses from the Cliff House. You are surrounded by thick forest and rock cliff to your back. Your closest neighbor along the river will be us and we are several hundred feet down river, totally out of view in own private area. There is a series of stairs to multileveled decks that lead down to the river and the swimming, fishing and kayaking area that is only used by you. The waters here are very clear, the bottom is mostly sandy, and the river is loaded with small mouth bass, pike and other assorted fish. We provide 3 kayaks, a small row boat, tubes, life vests, and 2 fishing rods with basic gear. We have a large outside gas grill on the upper deck, patio furniture on both decks, and a picnic table, lawn chairs, and a floating dock to swim or fish from down at the river. There are two fire rings, one down at the river and one up top in the rock garden and unlimited firewood for evening campfires.
The master bedroom and master bath are downstairs and two other bedrooms are upstairs with a second bath in between them. The Great Room has a sofa sleeper for additional sleeping. The spacious master bath has Jacuzzi tub/shower, chestnut vanity and sink and washer and dryer. Other amenities include cable TV and wireless internet. We provide food for your first morning's breakfast. The lodge is furnished with all antiques and some hand crafted reproductions made from our reclaimed barn woods.
This area of the river provides just superb smooth water kayaking and boating. The river winds down through remote forested areas and farm lands and there are literally miles of secluded boating and/or fishing. The banks of the Oswegatchie are lined with wild flowers, ferns, rock cliffs and many pine stands along the way, and of course a lot of wildlife. If hiking is your forte, we have miles of easy to moderate groomed hiking trails through the 85-acre farm that is used only by you.
You will probably see an Amish buggy ride in the area from time to time, as we are located on the edge of a large Old order Amish community. We have made arrangements with several of our Amish friends to provide buggy rides through the Amish community for our guests.
NEW! ~ MILES OF NEW HIKING TRAILS ~ 6 FIRE RINGS ~ TREE SWINGS ~ ~ Rock Gardens and Walking Staffs ~
This past fall we have developed a more extensive network of hiking trails throughout the property that lead to 6 isolate picnic areas - in what we call "power points" of the property. Many have wonderful vistas or are situated underneath massive sugar maple trees and all have their own fire ring (with unlimited firewood), benches and tree swings somewhere nearby to rest and relax. Grab or create and carve your own walking stick - to help balance yourself as you hike the varied trails here.
St Lawrence County is famous for its rocks and mineral deposits, and collectors revere the country for the quality of its specimens. We have a number of trails through very interesting rock formations and have created "rock gardens" periodically where you can add your own balanced rock sculpture with some of the very interestingly shaped and colorful rocks found on the property here.
All our hiking trails are marked with blazes on the trees and round trip hikes range in length from just a short walk to 2 miles in length, and may pass along the river, through wet lands and meadows filled with wild flowers, up and down mountain ridges, around large rock cliffs, and through forested areas with several hundred year old trees. It is wonderful family hiking or just get out for a mornings walk with a destination in mind. More about hiking.
We rent weekly from Saturday to Saturday but if you are a last minute traveler check with us as we may have some flexibility if we are not filled.
Please feel free to call us anytime if you need more information or have questions.
We have tried to develop the Cliff House into an extraordinary place where you can just park your car and relax and once again enjoy some of the simple pleasures of life - a complete retreat. Along with the striking beauty, solitude and immersion in nature of the lodge - without going anywhere - we can provide you with wonderful opportunities for hiking, picnicking, sightseeing at vistas, swimming, biking, boating and kayaking, fishing, photography, and just sitting by a campfire at night, toasting marshmallows and gazing at the stars while perhaps the coyotes sing you a tune under the moon. It is all here for you.
Please read what some of our guests have said about the Cliff House, they perhaps can say it even better:
Thank you,
Dale and Sophie Lehmer - your hosts.
(315) 286-4847
"You have indeed created a place of wonder here! I know you are proud of your Cliff House, and I thank you for the opportunity to share in the unique experience of total peace that prevails here."

Dear Carolyn: My brother's wife is pregnant and very difficult. First, she took weeks to even tell me that I was going to be an aunt. Then, she asked me not to tell anyone, including my own sons, until she was further along. It took a few more weeks until she would "let" my sons know, and then she told them herself! When I wanted to take a picture of how she told them, "in a special way," she asked me not to put it on Facebook.
What do I say to her to let her know how rude and selfish she's being? My boys are excited to be big cousins and I want my friends and family to know about their being cousins. - Excluded Family

Štefan Kocán
Guest of the Opera
Born in Slovakia, Štefan Kocán, one of the international leading basses of the younger generation, celebrates successes on major stages all over the world. He studied voice at the University of Performing Arts in Bratislava and continued his studies at the Vienna Conservatory under the tutelage of the bass Yevgeny Nesterenko. He attained success at the International Tchaikovsky Competition in Moscow, Hommage à Lucia Popp in Bratislava and the Belvedere Competition in Vienna. After completing his studies, he became a member of the Opera ensemble of the Landestheater in Linz, Austria, where he portrayed Sarastro (Mozart: Die Zauberflöte), Raimondo (Donizetti: Lucia di Lammermoor), Verdi's Philip II (Don Carlos) and Banco (Macbeth), Kecal (Smetana: The Bartered Bride) and other parts.

JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Low-cost carrier Allegiant Air and Jackson airport officials are awaiting federal approval of two direct flights a week to and from Orlando, Florida.
The airline is seeking a subsidy from the U.S. Department of Transportation.
The Mississippi Business Journal reports flights offered by the Nevada-based commercial and charter airline would land at Orlando/Sanford International, a small airport in the Central Florida city of Sanford about 15 miles north of Orlando.
Access to Orlando and its theme parks is made easier through a toll expressway that rings the entire metro area, including Sanford.
Jackson Medgar Wiley Evers International lost direct service to Orlando with the June departure of Southwest Airlines.
The airline and the Jackson Municipal Airport Authority reached the agreement this week.
