We expose slave masters and people smugglers in suburban Britain.
Is there more to life than money?
Showkat Shafi | 13 Dec 2013 09:28 GMT | India
Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar played his last innings at the Wankhede stadium in Mumbai on November 17, 2013, the ground where he started his international cricketing journey 24 years ago. Tens of thousands of people inside the stadium and a population of a billion plus outside had mixed emotions as their "Cricket God" played his last match.
Showkat Shafi spoke to a cross-section of Indians to find out what Tendulkar's achievements and and retirement meant to them.
God sent a gift to the Indian cricket in form of Sachin Tendulkar. We will never have anybody like him.
There is nobody like Sachin and nobody can ever be like him. If the Indian team will be fortunate enough to even get two players half his caliber then we will never lose a match.
His retirement is a big blow to every Indian. We have had great players but nobody like him.
To me, cricket has always meant Sachin. He is a tremendous player and will always be that for me... his retirement is a nightmare for all his fans, but we cannot change this fact and we need to accept it as soon as possible.
The biggest grief is that I couldn't get a chance to see him live and will never get that chance again.
In the end, its his own decision we cannot change it but I wish him good luck for his future.
Sachin Tendulkar is not just a simple human like all of us. People call him "the God of Cricket" and it's very true - because of his infinite achievements and the amount of happiness and joy he has provided to a country which is divided on basis of color, caste, religion, status, and etc.
For 24 years he has carried the burden of our expectations but now it is the time when Master has decided to hang his boots and cricket will not be the same again, as some say "if cricket is religion, then Sachin is God" and God is retiring so it will surely leave some effect on its worshippers.
In India, Sachin doesn't mean cricket, but in fact cricket means Sachin.
I have played cricket as a child and my hero used to be Sachin Tendulkar. It has always been my dream to watch him play in a stadium but now I won't be able to.
I am his big fan and I am going to miss listening to his name when I hear cricket matches on the radio. He was God of the Indian cricket team.
Hope we will get someone as great as Sachin in our team.
I have seen cricket ever since International cricket started and I must say that his popularity is just hype. There have been so many players who were much better batsmen than Sachin. Last few years his form has not been that great but he still retained his position in the Indian cricket team whereas there were so many great players who were forced to leave the moment they would lose form.
I agree he is a good player but it's not as if the Indian cricket will die in his absence.
I can think of better players in the current Indian team.
I rarely watch cricket but when Sachin comes to the ground to bat I ensure that I watch the innings.
I love the way he plays and how the crowd gets excited when he comes to bat. There have been situations when we lose wickets early and we know that till the time Sachin in around there are chances that we will pull through and win the match.
For cricket lovers he is God!
Sachin Tendulkar has to be one of those milestones left by the greats defining the evolution of Cricket.
Hats off to this icon who gave us the best display of sport throughout his tenure facing the furry of Imran Khan, Glen McGrath, Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Muttiah Muralidharan, Alan Donald and Courtney Walsh among others.
He has taken the game to a new level by setting up the highest standards for the times to come.
Sachin has done a great service to the future of the game.
Without Sachin Tendulkar, cricket is going to be incomplete for me. It has always been wonderful watching him play.
Nevertheless, he has all credentials in his hand and has given new dimensions to this game. He is a legendary player and is undoubtedly the "God of Cricket".
But one of my wishes was to watch him play live. I am going to miss him badly...all the very best Sachin!

Nuno Magalhães Ribeiro's curator insight, January 20, 10:13 AM
Serão os Cursos Online Abetos e Massivos (MOOCs) alternativas fiáveis para quem quer tirar um curso superior sem ter que se matricular e frequentar as aulas de uma Licenciatura ou Mestrado numa universidade? Este artigo desmistifica esta questão e resume o que é e o que não é possível fazer no contexto de um MOOC.
5 lessons for all education learned from MOOCs.
Via Fiona Harvey, juandoming
Fiona Harvey's curator insight, August 10, 2014 11:22 AM
Lessons from MOOCs - the story so far. I think he has missed out that, at least for the UK, MOOCs are a trojan horse for showing the potential of learning online, So for hybrid or blended learning, they can benefit on campus students (which is what I thought the point of the moocs would be, for all the investment, both time and money)
This collection of essays comes from faculty who developed and taught MOOCs in 2012 and 2013, students who participated in those MOOCs, and academics and observers who have first hand experience with MOOCs and higher education. These twenty-one essays reflect the complexity of the very definition of what is (and what might in the near future be) a "MOOC," along with perspectives and opinions that move far beyond the polarizing debate about MOOCs that has occupied the media in previous accounts.
Toward that end, Invasion of the MOOCs reflects a wide variety of impressions about MOOCs from the most recent past and projects possibilities about MOOCs for the not so distant future. The collection is edited by Steven D. Krause and Charles Lowe.

A good summary of key words/topics relevant to MOOC development and delivery from a number fields.
2013 selection of recent research on massive open online courses (MOOCs).
Via Robert Schuwer, Mark Smithers, NLafferty
The most famous result of using the MOOC platforms instead of the traditional LMSs is that the online courses offered in MOOC platforms are far easier to audit and can be audited for free. (Most of the hype around MOOCs has focused on this free auditing difference.) But this realization highlights the fact that MOOC platforms are themselves LMSs with a single differentiating feature set (enabling free auditing). And actually these free auditing features are no longer differentiators. The fact that there was really only a delta of one feature between traditional LMSs and MOOC platforms explains why so many traditional LMS providers were able to begin playing in the MOOC space so quickly (c.f. Canvas Network and Blackboard CourseSites).

Brilliant analysis of MOOCs by David Wiley. Must read!
"When institutional brands like Stanford, MIT, and Harvard are willing to be subordinated to platform brands like Coursera and EdX, at least in course marketing, what does it portend? Where is the current trajectory of online courses, currently passing through MOOCs, ultimately leading us? Noble predicted a quality-eroding, profit-grabbing commercialization of higher education masquerading under the banner of "widening access and improving quality.""
There are a significant number of universities involved in virtual team research, development, and training. This stands to reason given that the field is still emerging. Typical is an academic paper from Harvard Business School: Virtual Team Learning: Reflecting and Acting, Alone or With Others (2009).
In another vein, MOOCs (Massive Open Online Courses) have proliferated in the past few years. Millions of students globally are now participating through the aegis of top universities like Stanford, MIT, and Harvard. However, recent research indicates the attrition rate is very high. "It has been observed that only 7% of the people signing up for the courses end up completing it" (http://yourstory.com/2013/08/going-beyond-mooc-novoed-brings-entrepreneurship-education-from-babson-university-online-for-the-global-audience/). NovoED is a new Stanford based initiative that hopes to redress this alarming drop out rate by helping online students collaborate more effectively through virtual team formation (https://novoed.com).
Estimates vary as to the number of K12 students enrolled in virtual schools. It may be as high as 1 million and as low as 250,000. While the actual number may be in question, it's evident that many virtual students work on projects virtually. (http://nepc.colorado.edu/publication/virtual-schools-annual-2013, http://virtualschoolmooc.wikispaces.com/history)
The following is a typical example: "Imagine students at four different high schools working collaboratively and in real time on a project to create a mechanically-fed birdhouse monitored via the Internet. The bird feeder automatically refills itself, based on a preset schedule. One school team acts as project manager, while another is responsible for aesthetic design. The third school handles computer programming for refilling the bird seed. The fourth school determines the type and amount of bird seed used" (http://www.hivelocitymedia.com/innovationnews/virtualcollaborativelearningenvironment051712.aspx)

The post Softball: Indians win thriller on Carbaugh's walk-off hit appeared first on Lewisboro Ledger.]]>
Lane Carbaugh drilled a two-out single in the bottom of the seventh to score Emily Downs with the winning run, as the John Jay softball notched a thrilling, walk-off 14-13 win over White Plains on Saturday at home.
The Indians improved to 4-7 with the win, which was a back-and-forth game that saw both teams rally from deficits several times.
John Jay fell into a 5-0 hole in the top of the first, but battled back with seven runs in the second to take a 7-5 lead. The Indians led 9-6 after five winnings, but the Tigers plated four runs in the top of the sixth, taking the lead, 10-9.
John Jay answered with four runs in the bottom of the sixth, powered by junior Olivia Martin's bases-clearing double, to take a 13-10 lead.
White Plains rallied in the seventh with three runs to tie the game 13-13.
In the bottom of the seventh, Downs led off the inning with a single and stole second, before scoring on Carbaugh's line-drive single to win the game.
Kayla Fisher got the win in relief, going the final two innings and allowing three runs (two earned) on five hits.
Brooke Altneu pitched the first five innings, allowing 10 runs on 11 hits.
Fisher was also 2-for-5 with two RBI and a run scored at the plate. Also with two hits for John Jay were Downs (2-for-4, two runs, RBI), Carbaugh (2-for-5, two runs, RBI), Nikki Hammond (2-for-4, two RBI, three runs) and Megan Herdrich (2-for-3, two RBI, run).
Getting one hit each were Susan McCauley (run), Ashley Berton (run), Altneu, Danielle Costaldo (walk, two runs) and Martin (double, two RBI, run).
The Indians host Pawling on Monday and Greeley on Tuesday, before traveling to Greeley on Thursday and Westlake on Friday.

The post Confessions of a longhair appeared first on Lewisboro Ledger.]]>
It's almost as troubling as getting my quarterly 401(k) report, only to learn it's headed in the wrong direction because I got too greedy or too cautious, all of which means I'll be working until I'm 80 in the lumberyard or car wash or wherever Baby Boomers are sent during their sunset years.
"Don't you think you need a haircut?" someone asked. "This is a professional work environment with high standards in grooming and integrity, and you're starting to look Bernie Sanders on a bad hair day or one of those retreads from the '60s who has no hair on top and ties what he has in a creepy ponytail."
My question is this: If women in Manhattan can wear flip-flops to the office, why can't bald Baby Boomers have ponytails? No need to answer that.
"It looks like you're going through a mid-life crisis."
"Been there. Done that. Twice, maybe three times, already."
The truth is I'd love to get a haircut but I can't. I can't because my wife, who also happens to be my personal groomer, isn't talking to me because I did something wrong although I'm not sure what it was. At any one time in a 24-hour period, most wives aren't talking to their husbands. This is known as the notorious "silent treatment," where you have to guess what you did wrong, and when you finally figure it out, your first response is "What's so wrong with that?"
This complicates things because my wife, Sandy, can't separate our business relations from our conjugal relations, so I asked her, "What would happen if, say, Bill and Hillary Clinton had a fight and he refused to make a campaign appearance for her?"
Whenever my wife refuses to cut my hair, I make an appointment at the salon. Believe me, there's nothing worse than a bald guy being surrounded by women who are obviously wondering, "What's this guy with no hair doing here?"
The truth is my wife has been cutting my hair for years, so I try to be extra special nice when I know I'm going to need a haircut, just in case. She does a great job (I'm trying to be extra special nice) even though she tends to get carried away and cut off too much. Nevertheless, her handiwork is better than any barber I've gone to. Plus, I don't have to tip her, although that may change soon.
When people hear this story, they think I grew up in a home where my mother put a bowl on my head and cut around it with a pair of clippers until I came out looking like a 9-year-old Homer Simpson.
Actually, I went to a barber named Andy, who cut every kid's hair the same way, back before razor cuts, blow-drying and $200 styling.
His so-called "style" was nouveau 1950s, all-American boy, with short sideburns, a zip on top and just enough in the front for a little wave if you were lucky. If you were unlucky, you came out looking like Ted Cruz at 8, or you got Andy's Parris Island special, which made you look like a Marine recruit the first day on the job.
In those days, you were either a Brylcreem guy or a Vitalis man. We used Brylcreem. "A little dab'll do ya. Use more only if you dare. But watch out, the gals will all pursue you. They love to run their fingers through your hair!" The only problem was their fingers came out greasy.
Vitalis tonic, on the other hand, froze your hair in place like paper mache, which let you fashion cool waves and duck tails, but if a girl tried to run her fingers through your hair, they stuck to your head.
My wife has a very unorthodox styling technique that she probably read about in Popular Mechanics or Vogue. She pulls out a chuck of hair, measures it and then cuts. She does this all around my head to ensure it's the same length, and she agonizes if one section is a millimeter longer than the other … and keeps cutting until she gets it right, by which time it's so perfect I look like a bald Anna Wintour.
I once foolishly said, "Andy never cut my hair like this." To which she promptly responded, "Then go see Andy or cut it yourself." End of discussion.

The post The Quiet Car conundrum appeared first on Lewisboro Ledger.]]>
Sixteen years ago, a group of regular commuters on Amtrak's early morning train to D.C. had a great idea: Why not designate one car on the train as a "Quiet Car," free from cell phone chatter and loud conversations. The railroad agreed and the experiment proved a great success.
But as early as 2006 when the same idea was suggested to Metro-North, it was rejected outright. Then serving on the Commuter Council, I persisted, and finally, in 2011, the railroad agreed to a trial with one car on each rush hour train dedicated to what it called a "Quiet CALMmute."
Almost immediately the plan ran into trouble. Not because it wasn't wanted, but because it wasn't enforced. There were no signs in the cars and only occasional PA announcements before departure, reminding folks who sat in the car of the quiet, library-like environment that was expected. Most of all, conductors wouldn't enforce the new rules. But why?
Conductors seem to have no trouble reminding passengers to keep their feet off the seats or put luggage in the overhead racks. But all that the railroad expected them to do to enforce the Quiet Car rules was to pass out bilingual "Shhh cards" to gabby violators.
It seemed left to passengers to remind fellow riders what a Quiet Car was for, and confrontations resulted.
Then this spring, the railroad surprised even me by announcing an expansion of the program: Every weekday train, peak and off-peak, would now have two Quiet Cars! Sounds great, but without signage or education, the battles continued.
One commuter from Fairfield recently emailed me with a typical tale. Riding in a Quiet Car he became annoyed when a fellow passenger was yakking on her cell phone. He tapped her on the shoulder and told her, "We're in a Quiet Car," and she freaked, telling him to "keep your @&%! hands off of me" and continuing her chatter by telling her caller that "some guy" just tried to tell her to get off her phone and what a fool he was to think this was some kind of quiet car.
Of course, there was no conductor around (all tickets having been collected), and lacking any signage in the car to point to, the offended passenger was made to feel like some sort of jerk.
On Amtrak trains, those violating Quiet Car rules have been thrown off the train and arrested. Even Chris Christie had to move his seat on an Acela once for yabbering with his staff in the wrong car.
Nobody wants these kinds of altercations on Metro-North. But why initiate and then expand such a passenger amenity as Quiet CALMmute without proper education and enforcement? A few signs and friendly reminders from conductors should make passengers aware that "train time may be your own time" (as the railroad's marketing slogan says), but it's also shared time. And I, for one, want a quiet commute.

As a winner of the program, the LLT was one of 55 nonprofit land trusts to earn state funding.
The LLT received funds for its 2016 Access Nature Program, a program designed to provide inclusive and educational access to local preserves and trails. The program was started last summer and has received wide approval and success.
"Land trusts continue to make a difference in local communities, maximizing public and private dollars to protect and preserve our state's natural resources for generations to come," Seggos said.

The faceoff at Darien High School is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. You can watch the game in the window below. (Note: Within 20 minutes of the game ending, you can watch it on-demand in the same player window):
At 11:30 a.m., HAN Network broadcast a live pregame show from Darien High School's stadium with player interviews. You can rewatch it here:
The two rivals not only feature perfect records, they've done their damage against some top-flight competition and national rankings. The USA Today Sports Super 25 Expert Rankings put the Rams at No. 3 and Darien at No. 13. While the latest Nike-Lacrosse Magazine national rankings have Darien at No. 6 and New Canaan at No. 21. The more local GameTimeCT-New Haven Register poll has Darien ranked No. 1 in the state and New Canaan at No. 2.
What's a better way to decide who's the better than actually playing the game?
Adding to the fun is the longtime rivalry between the two border towns in everything from football to education to scoreboard size to lacrosse.
The Rams (9-0) are coming off recent victories over two FCIAC contenders in Greenwich 8-6, and Staples 7-4 — both of which were carried live on HAN: Watch Greenwich game here and Staples game here.
New Canaan started the season with a trip to Maryland, where it defeated the Loyola-Blakefield Dons 9-8 in overtime. The Rams also have wins over Fairfield Prep 8-7 (click here to watch), Wilton 11-2, and the Brunswick Bruins 13-8.
Darien (8-0), the defending FCIAC and CIAC Class L champion, also opened the year with a huge regional win on the road, rolling over Yorktown, N.Y., 12-3. The Wave has also beaten Niskayuna, N.Y., 20-16, Manhasset, N.Y., 11-8, and Wilton 17-3. You can watch the Manhasset game, covered by HAN, here.
The longtime rivals have named the day "Unite for the Fight," as part of the Darien lacrosse team's drive to raise awareness of cystic fibrosis. A member of the Blue Wave roster has lived with cystic fibrosis his entire life.
You can read more about the game in Dave Stewart's preview here.

As you know Joy and I love to eat healthy but with so many holiday parties last winter and then Easter … I would have to say all we did was eat through the entire season. Ugh!
I (Judy) am very excited to share this new healthy recipe with you. I know you are going to love it! It is a pesto sauce that is creamy, velvety and truly luscious and tastes like it would be full of calories. It is not!
It is an avocado-spinach pesto with zucchini noodles which are called Zoodles. You will have to get a spiralizer for the noodles to come out perfect.
We serve it cold, so it is perfect for lunch or you can add cooked chicken and make it dinner! The avocado makes it rich and creamy and is a good-for-you fat, the spinach is full of nutrients and fiber, and I threw in walnuts for a boost of protein, but you can use almonds, pine nuts or any nut you like!
I think you will really love this recipe. There is no cooking involved and it is so easy to whip up. Please try it and let me know on our Twins JudyJoy Facebook page!
2 small zucchini, spiralized (one per serving)
Pesto Sauce
one ripe avocado
1 fresh clove of garlic
1/2 cup of fresh baby spinach leaves
juice of 1/2 lime
1/4 cup of avocado oil or olive oil
small handful of walnuts or nuts of your choice
6 cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes cut in half
Put all sauce ingredients (except tomatoes) into a blender, or NutriBullet and pulse till creamy and desired consistency. You can add a bit of water if you need to thin it. Toss with the Zoodles, add cherry tomatoes and serve! You can sprinkle with red pepper flakes if you wish!! Enjoy.

The post Baseball: Indians rally late to nip Brewster appeared first on Lewisboro Ledger.]]>
Jared Kersh's two-out, two-run single drove in the tying run, and Justin Drpich followed with an RBI single to bring home the winning run.
It was the ninth straight win for the Indians, who are now 10-2 on the season.
The Bears had scored four runs in the top of the fourth to take a 6-2 lead, but the Indians came back in the bottom of the fourth with four runs to cut the lead to 6-5. Brewster added another run in the sixth to go up 7-5.
In the bottom of the sixth, Eman Giumarra reached on an error with two outs and Alex Rajovic singled. Kersh then doubled to centerfield to drive in two runs, and scored the game-winner on Drpich's single.
Kersh went 3-for-4 with four RBI, while Drpich was 2-for-4 with one RBI and Ray D'Urso 2-for-3 with one RBI.
Rajovic went 1-for-3 and scored two runs, with other hits by Brett Paulsen (1-for-3, RBI) and Matt Hegarty (1-for-2, run).
Chase Borowitz got the win in relief, going the final three innings and allowing one run on two hits and two walks.
Rajovic started and went three and one-third innings, allowing four runs (three earned) on two hits and six walks.
John Jay took a 1-0 lead in the first when Rajovic led off with a walk, moved to third on a single by Drpich, and stole home.
In the fourth, C.J. McCarthy led off with a walk and Hegarty singled, with McCarthy scoring on Paulsen's RBI single and Hegarty coming home on D'Urso's RBI single. Jason Weinhaus walked to load the bases and Kersh capped off the rally with a two-run single.

The post Briefing Book: Why LES isn't more appeared first on Lewisboro Ledger.]]>
The Town Board has dusted off the Herzog administration's pre-Great Recession plan to borrow $3 million to build a new town government office building on Main Street. There are so many things wrong with this — politically, financially, architecturally — that it's difficult to know where to begin. But here at Briefing Book, we think about these things so you don't have to pay for them.
Let's take the fact that the voters wisely tossed the Herzog administration out on its blueprints for boneheaded schemes like this one. If Supervisor Parsons is considering retirement, this idea looks like one that will facilitate the presentation of his gold watch. For Republicans, borrowing an amount equal to almost one-third of the municipal budget puts the Lewisboro GOP firmly into the Donald Trump borrow-and-spend wing of the party.
The better approach — the only approach that benefits everyone — is for the town government to lease the vacant LES building from the school district and move every town office and department that it can over to Bouton Road. Currently, the town government shells out $110,000 annually for the privilege of renting space in the Orchard Square Shopping Plaza. Paying that rent instead to the school district — which should welcome the idea — would be a win-win-win for the town government, the school district, and the taxpayers.
The town government would get to consolidate its offices and solve its space issues without borrowing a cent. The school district would get to lease out a vacant building with minimal effort to a tenant that will pay on time and isn't likely to relocate. The taxpayers would get to generate some revenue out of a wasting asset, although it's unlikely that the school board would cut spending by the amount of the rent it would receive from the town government. But the rules of government spending being immutable (absent a President Ted Cruz wielding a veto pen), taxpayers will have to hope that the school board exercises at least some restraint.
So what's the sticking point? It's the hope in some parts of town that the school board will eventually reopen Lewisboro Elementary School. It's kind of touching actually, watching the LES diehards refuse to let reality intrude on their dreams of an LES reawakening. Indeed, no assertion is too whimsical, no claim too fanciful, no reasoning too specious for them to assert it as gospel.
First, they argued that closing LES caused Lewisboro's property values to drop, ignoring the fact that the housing crash occurred five years before the debate over closing LES even began. Then still ignoring the calendar, they argued that Lewisboro's property values weren't recovering, even though the market had begun to recover, albeit slowly, in 2011, three years before LES closed. Finally, desperate to keep the building as vacant as their assertions, they made two contradictory arguments — that "the LES closure halted a recovery" and that "houses are selling in Lewisboro." That both assertions can't be true doesn't faze them. But the facts tell a different story.
According to Realtor Houlihan Lawrence, for the last fifteen months, the real estate market in the Katonah-Lewisboro School District has largely mirrored the real estate market in northern Westchester County. From 2014 to 2015, home sales in northern Westchester County were up 8% on average, while in KLSD home sales rose by 12%. How about home prices? In northern Westchester, the median sales price was flat, while in KLSD the median sales price fell by 4%. Is the LES closure to blame for that price drop? Not unless you also blame the LES closure for lower home prices in Bedford (down 1%), Somers (down 2%), Byram Hills (down 5%), and North Salem (down 18%). And for the last 12 months? From March 2015 to March 2016, median home prices across northern Westchester County fell by an average of 21%.
It's laughable for anyone to argue that LES, either open or closed, is to blame for the vicissitudes of the Westchester real estate market. But that reasoning, or the lack of it, threatens to keep the dust undisturbed in LES for years to come.

Blue Jays' J.A. Happ begins rehab assignment in Dunedin
Left-hander suffered a sprained knee when he was struck on the side of the head by a sharp line drive in May.

J.A. Happ, the Blue Jays left-hander who has been out since May 7 when he was struck in the head with a sharp line drive, began his minor-league rehab assignment Thursday and could be ready to rejoin the Jays before the end of the month.
Pitching for the Class-A Dunedin Blue Jays against the Fort Myers Miracle, Happ threw five scoreless innings, giving up three singles while striking out seven.
The 30-year-old Illinois native suffered a sprained right knee when he was hit on the side of the head by a Desmond Jennings line drive in Tampa more than 10 weeks ago. He also suffered a minor skull fracture at the time, but the knee injury is what has kept him out.
Before the injury, Happ was 2-2 with a 4.91 ERA through seven starts.
He will likely make one or two more rehab starts before being activated off the disabled list.

Discipline and balance
Opinion: Editorials
By Editorial
Maintaining discipline in a high school is a balancing act. Keeping students in class even when they've begun to make some bad choices — tardies, disruptive behavior — is vital. Keeping classrooms focused and safe is also essential. Making sure all students understand that there are consequences to acting out is a fundamental life lesson.
Right now Oak Park and River Forest High School is recalibrating its approach to student discipline. And the effort is not without bumps and frustrations. Last week we reported that first-semester detentions, in-school suspensions and out-of-school suspensions had all dropped by more than half from the previous year. This is the direct result of a school administration's effort to keep students in class while they ratchet up the consequences for not serving out the detentions being handed out.
As we said, a tough balance.
Principal Nathaniel Rouse was admirably candid in acknowledging that the change in approach was not universally popular with some faculty members. Where in the past tossing a disruptive student from class was likely to result in an in-school suspension that would keep the child out of the class for multiple days, now the student is back in class quickly but with other consequences applied. Rouse says the administration did an inadequate job preparing teachers for the change. Possible. Likely teachers also need some time to adjust to the change.
A student at the start of a descent into disruption and disconnection needs the opportunity, as well as the expectation, that they can turn their behavior and the knowledge that adults in the building will lay that responsibility on them. Students need to know that bad behavior is not the path to avoiding school but results in consequences that are layered onto schooling.
Challenges abound at OPRF. The opinion page in last week's student newspaper, Trapeze, offered a point/counterpoint between student journalists over which was the greater problem at the school: violent fighting in the hallways or rampant theft of electronics among students. No sugarcoating there.
One can trace the evolution of our high school, as it has become more diverse and more complex in recent decades, through its evolving approach to discipline. We're supportive of the current efforts, which are a mix of tough love – the semi-closed campus, the focus on getting to class on time, more security – and an expectation that education remains paramount.

Parents use to be accountable for their child's actions back in the day. If the child was tardy or absent without good reason, the parent was fined. You could not believe how effective such policy was, but unfortunately political correctness got rid of that, and now all people can do is blame the schools and teachers for not "raising" kids properly, as if that's the school's job.
Kids need a safe place to learn!
Posted: April 4th, 2013 8:16 AM
@OP Guy's comment 'Maybe parents should be involved too, like every time a student gets a detention, both the student and the parent have to provide service to the school.' I love that! I imagine then the parent will suddenly find a way to turn their child's behavior around.

change dramatically. More than once I've seen kids be disruptive, disrespectful to teachers and violent in school, and they act like perfect angels, or victims of the system, when around their parents/parent. Something teachers can do is to discuss policy with the entire class before anything happens, and give students a clear choice that they can follow the rules or be disruptive and be accountable. This way the student has to acknowledge their own decision, and take responsibility.

This is merely a numbers game. Rather than handing out serious punishment, which makes the school look bad, disruptive students are allowed to stay in class. That's not improvement, that's sweeping the problem under the rug. There needs to be behavioral change within the student, and school can only do so much. Maybe parents should be involved too, like every time a student gets a detention, both the student and the parent have to provide service to the school. I'd bet you'd see behavior cont.

Is the author deliberately not noting the obvious negative effect of getting the disruptive student back into the classroom he or she is disrupting as soon as possible? Seems like it could have a bad impact on classroom environment.

Steve Jobs Invited By King To See... Maine
Steve Jobs Invited By King To See... Maine
by , 10:30 AM EDT, June 11th, 2002
The Portland Press-Herald is reporting that Steve Jobs has been touring Maine. Apple's CEO was invited to see some of the Maine schools that are part of the statewide purchase of Apple iBooks for 7th and 8th graders throughout the state. The invitation was extended by Maine governor Angus King, the man who has championed the state's iBook program from the beginning.
The Maine iBook program was first announced last year, and signed into law in March of this year. The program then came under fire from legislators looking to deal with a US$180 million budget deficit for the state, but according to the Portland Press-Herald, that crisis has been temporarily averted.
Mr. Jobs spoke at one of the schools in the program about technology and the classroom, and visited with students to see some of the things they have created on their iBooks. From the Portland Press-Herald:
The Apple chief executive, who was invited to visit Maine before the latest budget problems, said that by replacing computer labs with much-needed classroom space, schools that provide laptops can actually save money.
But his remarks focused on benefits that are harder to quantify, noting that the laptops, their video capabilities in particular, have empowered kids and gotten them excited about learning, Jobs said.
"Because this is their medium, they are putting 10 times more time into the creation of self-expression," he said.
Before Jobs' speech, seventh-graders from the Maine demonstration schools showed off work from their white iBooks, including video poems and parts of a video documentary about the changing face of Maine industry.
The article also says that Apple offered the state a significant discount to secure the deal:
King has previously said that Apple in effect provided a $15 million contribution to the program by providing the laptops, networking and support at a discount.
Jobs agreed that the contract to provide computers to Maine students "was one that we decided we just couldn't lose."
There is additional information in the full article at the Portland Press-Herald.
The Mac Observer Spin:Note to all Macheads: if you want to get some one-on-one face time with Steve Jobs, become governor of a state and buy about 30,000 or so iBooks. Or maybe TiBooks.
Seriously though, it's great to see Mr. Jobs take time to see his company's products at work in an environment that is not only critically important for Apple itself, but is also something that Steve Jobs holds to be personally important. It's also great to see that Maine's program is moving forward.

Bradley Beal is the Most Overrated Player in Basketball
This article was originally published on Pick and Popovich on April 19, 2016. I don't think Bradley Beal is all that good at basketball. Boom. I said it. Can we stop pretending this guy deserves a max contract over summer? I'm just not sure what the appeal is. His selling point is supposed to be his three-point shooting. And yes, 39.7 percent is solid on its face. But really...

Asian elephants in Khao Yai national park, Thailand. By Tontan Travel, http://www.tontantravel.com/tours/en/khao-yai-tours.html
Driving on the bridge over the Yamuna River I spotted 1 asian elephant with a group of people. My family that lives nearby said the people use the elephants to make money, for tourist rides or as work animals. It was not restrained in any way.

The Groucho Letters

by Groucho Marx
Tom's review
Jul 29, 12
Read in July, 2012
Letters to and from Groucho Marx with others in show business as well as fairly important writers of his time. It shouldn't come as much of a surprise that there's a keen mind behind his sarcastic tongue but it's still enlightening to see him casually quote poetry or reference obscure historical events. As he does this he generally undercuts himself at the same time staying true to his persona. I'm a great fan of the Marx Brothers generally, and Groucho in particular. I wish You Bet Your Life was more available.

GOP activist charged with rape claimed close ties with Mitt Romney, Utah politicians
Peterson billed this past May's conference as "the CPAC of the West," a reference to the national Conservative Political Action Committee that draws thousands of activists to Washington, D.C., each year. The agenda included GOP attorney general candidates John Swallow and Sean Reyes in a Lincoln/Douglas-style debate at Wasatch High School. A barbecue featuring wild elk and a golf-into-the-lake contest followed at the cabin.
Wimmer didn't attend this year because he said he did not want to associate with Peterson after hearing rumblings within the Republican Party regarding possible criminal charges against Peterson. Also, he said his wife told him she felt uncomfortable around Peterson.
Hatch didn't go to the barbecue this year, either. Hansen said it turned into an anti-Hatch event starting in 2011 with a straw poll pitting the senator against Chaffetz, who was considering a run at Hatch. Chaffetz won the straw poll. This year, the conference featured a leader from the national tea party organization FreedomWorks, which campaigned heavily against Hatch.
Utah officeholders Thursday were distancing themselves from Peterson. Some of them appear in photos with him that are posted on various websites.
Herbert campaign spokesman Marty Carpenter said the governor has his picture taken with thousands of people at hundreds of events every year.
"Mr. Peterson has no formal affiliation with the governor's campaign, nor has he ever. In fact, the governor declined Mr. Peterson's invitation (to the event) this past spring," he said.
Lee attended the 2011 conference because of other people who were there, not because of Peterson, said his spokesman Brian Phillips.
"The notion that he was a Mike Lee guy is inaccurate," he said. "My boss certainly didn't have a personal relationship with him at all."
Hansen said Hatch wouldn't know Peterson if he walked by him.
Love's campaign declined to comment.
Utah Democratic Party Chairman Jim Dabakis said he hopes Republicans would denounce the alleged sexual assaults and ban Peterson from future GOP activities.
In addition to Romney, Peterson posted on Facebook pictures of himself with Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Texas Rep. Ron Paul and South Carolina Sen. Jim DeMint.
Besides hosting his own events, Peterson showed up at other political gatherings but apparently didn't work on anyone's campaign, Kirkham said.
"He was here and he was there," he said. "He was kind of off in his own world."
