EDITOR'S NOTE: The following letters are from Tascosa High School students in response to the May 6 article, "Tascosa freshman prefers home schooling."
As a senior at Tascosa High School, I am writing in response to the comments made by Michael Humphreys. I am extremely disappointed that a person who goes to such a wonderful school would make such negative comments.
Tascosa is a great school, is a great learning environment, and it even has great students. The teachers really do make a difference in the students' lives.
Tascosa is a very safe school, thanks to the administration staff and our liaison officer. I feel safe, and so do all my friends.
I can only hope my children will go to a high school just like Tascosa.
I am writing concerning the May 6 article on violence in the schools. I feel this article put Tascosa down and was very inappropriate for the front page of the newspaper.
Michael Humphreys was stating his opinion - the article should have been placed in the Opinion section of the newspaper.
The article made it sound like there was violence only at Tascosa. There is some violence at Tascosa, but there is at other schools, too.
As a sophomore, I feel very safe at school. Tascosa is not an unsafe place, and I feel that this is what the article implied.
Mr. Humphreys' opinions do not represent those of everyone at Tascosa. Before placing the article on the front page, you should have gotten input from more students.
Your May 6 front-page article referred to one of my fellow students at Tascosa who felt threatened at school. I have to disagree with his opinions.
Tascosa is a very safe and happy school. It is filled with spirit and compassion toward education and the future.
This particular student spent two years in home school before coming to Tascosa, which means his social skills were somewhat out of use. I understand that fights do occur here, but the number of them is very small. We owe this to Officer Thomas, our liaison officer, and the school's administrators.
Also, in no way is Tascosa lacking with regard to education compared to home schooling.
We are proud of our school, and I personally feel very safe coming here.
Some people at Tascosa High School were offended by the May 6 front-page article dealing with violence in school. I personally think that the intentions of the article were probably good, and I was not offended.
The article told some of the truth - fights are more common in public schools than in private ones. But maybe some statements or facts were left out of the article, too.
I have been very disturbed by the inconsiderate approach you have taken in your newspaper articles. Time and again, you have bashed us Rebels while praising the Sandies. And time and again, you have hidden Rebel accomplishments in the back of the newspaper while sweetly and constructively criticizing the Sandies.
"Tascosa freshman prefers home school" is just one example of Rebel-bashing. This article should not have been front-page material. The next day, you published an article titled "Student arraigned on threat charge," which totally excluded the words "Amarillo High" from the headline. Also, this article was placed on page 12A rather than the front page like the Tascosa article, when the Amarillo High article was clearly front-page material.
A Tascosa student simply states his displeasure toward the school and makes the front page while an Amarillo High student does something as drastic as threatening a teacher and gets put on one of the back pages.
I am not asking you to bash the Sandies on the front page; I am just asking for equality - for you to stop playing favorites and treat all the AISD schools equally. Give credit where credit is due - it is all many of us Tascosa students ask.
I am a THS senior and very disturbed by the writing style of some Daily News staff members.
In general, I feel the newspaper emphasizes negativism. Anytime a school other than Amarillo High experiences a problem, it is reported right on the front page in giant bold print. April 26-30, Tascosa was the only school out of the four that did not have to dismiss students because of a bomb threat or violence, yet we were not positively recognized and reinforced with even a small article in the paper.
The positive needs to be proclaimed, not ignored. This year, the THS choir program has earned 17 trophies, all first place or grand champion. THS was the first to use the Positive Peer Leadership Program, which attributed to a considerable decrease in school violence and disciplinary occurrences.
Our U'N'I anti-drug program has branched off to form the STARS (students teaching about the risks of smoking) program. This program sends student leaders to Tascosa cluster elementary schools and presents a program that takes an innovative look against tobacco products.
Our wrestling program has three state wrestling championships this year. Anyone can tell you that this is phenomenal for any 20 programs combined, let a lone a single program.
Tascosa set a new county record for the highest weight of cans collected during the United Way Canned Food Drive.
If these actions are not worthy of praise, then I am concerned for the newspaper's ethical and moral standing.
Sonny Bohanan's "Tascosa freshman prefers home school" represents a prejudiced view of THS. Only one side of the issue was presented. Bohanan could have at least presented the view of one of the many people who have had a great experience at Tascosa.
In my opinion, Tascosa is the best school in town. We have teachers who call you at home if your assignment is wrong, and we have wonderful, positive programs that promote learning and teamwork. In my four years at THS, I have seen two fights - one on the football field, the other in the commons.
I feel strongly that the prejudice exhibited by the Globe-News is not only against Tascosa but any other school that is not Amarillo High School.
In "Tascosa freshman prefers home school," Michael Humphreys stated he did not feel safe. I have gone to Tascosa for four years, as did my brother and sister. I have never had to worry about gang violence or fights in the school. I do not appreciate how your paper chooses to demoralize my school over something that a small portion of students may do. I also do not understand why you took just one boy's opinion without finding out what the other students feel.
There is always a chance of violence in any school. However, I feel our administrators are prepared and have everything under control. If you want to inform the city of Amarillo about Tascosa, why not show all the good it does instead of the bad?
At Tascosa, we do many community services projects. We raised money for the United Way, recycled phone books and donated many quarts of blood. This is the entire student body, not just a club or organization.
Our clubs and organizations do plenty of things that never get any type of recognition. The Business Professionals of America helped put on a Halloween carnival for a retirement home and helped out with the Evelyn Rivers coat drive. The Key Club helped with a disabilities banquet for people with handicaps. The PALS organization helps elementary students with reading and problems, not to mention the Christmas in April project PALS members did for two weekends, helping rebuild rundown homes for the elderly.
Our sports programs have gotten better and better each year, but it seems that every time we win, it is considered a fluke. Our wrestling program is one of the best in the nation. The baseball team has made back-to-back playoff appearances, both boys and girls basketball made an appearance there, and the volleyball team went far into regionals. The track team has many runners and jumpers going to state as well.
The Tascosa band won both sweepstakes at area for marching and received a Division 1 for the area concert. The orchestra program has come a long way, and the drama department participated in the 1 Act Division.
I feel your paper makes Tascosa look like a terrible place to be, which it is not. The next time you feel the urge to place blame, come to our school and visit for a day. You will see how we truly are - then you can honestly write something about that.
It is my opinion that the publication of the May 6 front-page article was very irresponsible on the part of the editor.
I have attended THS for four years. It is an excellent high school with very little violence. The statement, "There are a lot of problems with violence and gangs at our school," is entirely false. I was witness to far more violence in middle school than at Tascosa.
Michael Humphreys was extremely irresponsible to inform the Globe-News rather than a teacher or administrator.
Violence at THS is extremely rare and is instantly stopped by the school's liaison officer, Officer Thomas, and several assistant principals.
The editor is responsible for everything printed in the Daily News. To put a story based on the opinion of one inexperienced freshman on the front page is very unprofessional, especially while the May 7 story about an AHS student arrested for threatening a teacher was only placed in the "Local Briefs" on page 12A. The difference in the placement and wording of the headlines seem to indicate a bias against the other three Amarillo high schools.
There are several positive aspects of these schools that have been virtually ignored. With the exception of an article referring to the "Every 15 Minutes" program, every recent school-related article has been negative.
With the exception of Amarillo High, every AISD high school has a JROTC unit. Some other examples are U'N'I, Tascosa Focus, student council, etc. The students participating in these programs are helping the community and their respective schools but go unrecognized.
I believe that it is wrong, irresponsible and unprofessional to present area high schools only in the negative. I hope the Globe-News editor and staff will take that into account before insulting area schools and students.
Your May 6 article was a little prejudiced toward our school. You put negative articles about Tascosa on the front page, while negative articles about Amarillo High are well hidden within the paper.
I understand if the boy in the article is afraid - that would be expected from a home-schooler and is also expected from a freshman. But when you plaster it on the front page when it should be in the Opinion section, it is nothing but prejudice against THS.
You need to run your articles without prejudice against one school or another.
I don't understand your paper and how critical it is toward my school, which I've attended for four years now. This school is in my blood; it was in my sister's blood in '94; and my mom's blood in '74. I'm not going to let some article change my mind.
Your paper needs to get its priorities straight and stop being so hypocritical.
You might want to understand how many people are in the Tascosa cluster and how many readers you might lose if you don't stop the prejudicial articles that your paper likes to publish.
I have experienced so many things in my past four years at Tascosa. I am a hard-of-hearing student with high expectations of myself, and I have to strive to make it in this world.
I have been going to public schools all my life and I have found no unpleasant moments due to violence. Discrimination because of my deafness is my biggest problem, but I never let it get me down.
Without Tascosa, I don't think I would be as happy as I am now, because the teachers have given me the opportunity to know what kind of future I want and how to make it in the real world.
Every school in Amarillo and across the nation will have small fights between students and big threats such as bombs and shootings. There is really no way to prepare for the day violence comes, but being alert helps. Public schools today do the best they can to ensure the safety of each and every student.
Tascosa will play a major role in my future success in whatever I plan to do.
The freshman interviewed for your May 6 article, Michael Humphreys, had gone to home school for years. This being his first year at Tascosa, he was unprepared.
I'm a senior at THS and have never witnessed anything like this freshman is talking about. I don't appreciate your putting this story on the front page.
Going to Tascosa has been a blessing in many different ways. I have not only received a wonderful education, but I have also grown from a boy when I was a freshman to a young man as a senior.
The May 6 article paints an ugly picture of what a scared boy thought he saw when that was not the case. My school is a wonderful place, and I am proud to graduate in May from Tascosa High School.
As a first-time public school student, Michael Humphreys probably experienced quite a culture shock. But as a THS student, I know that his opinions are far from the truth.
This was a very unnecessary article, and I hope next time your paper will get more information before publishing such a one-sided story.

Is pretty remote. I just saw the first general store I've seen since last semester in Meadville, PA.
Is pretty remote. I just saw the first general store I've seen since last semester in Meadville, PA.
Did they have the Sears & Roebuck catalog to order from in case you needed something they didn't stock?
Okay you are obviously on or near one of the forks right? Long Island... I HATE living here... dealing with "citidiots" who have million $$$ houses out here are obnoxious and not enough hills for climbing... I'm so moving to PA after college... I love it there and I dont care what anyone says about it!!!!
Amazing this kid pushed that shopping cart that far in 2 days.
Do you now have an address not under someones living room table?
You see, their morals, their code...it's a bad joke, dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. I'll show you. When the chips are down, these...These "civilized" people...they'll eat each other. See, I'm not a monster. I'm just ahead of the curve
make sure you stock up on Dapper Dan.
"harder" is not a very good safeword.
Where did you see the general store? Sagaponack?

Though Hopsicker managed 16 points and Vogl added 14 points, Cazenovia saw Seeley cool off on this night, managing just nine points as Ross Gerber got seven points.
In last last Monday's non-league game against Class D contender Faith Heritage, a strong defensive performance in the first half, plus big offensive numbers from Vogl, helped the Lakers ease past the Saints 53-45.
Cazenovia spent the first two periods applying all kinds of pressure, and Faith had a difficult time handling it. This, plus a sporadic attack, helped the Lakers build a 26-15 halftime edge.
The Saints tried to rally in the second half behind Luke Last, who caught fire and earned most of his game-high 25 points after the break.
But the Lakers kept answering, led by Vogl, who set a new season mark with 21 points and got lots of support from Seeley and Hopsicker, who managed 14 points apiece. Between them, Vogl, Seeley and Hopsicker earned all but two of the Lakers' field goals.
The pair of tough losses to Solvay and SAS left the Lakers at 6-4, not in the ideal position going into Tuesday night's game at state-ranked Westhill, their first encounter since the Warriors beat the Lakers in last year's opening round of the Section III Class B tournament.

15-Month CD Special at Velocity Credit Union - Easy Membership But Soon To Be ASI-Only
Update 2/10/2010: The CD special has been extended. It's now scheduled to last through 2/28/2010.
Update 2/10/2010: Velocity has changed its mind and decided NOT to switch to ASI (see news).
Velocity Credit Union is offering a special 15-month certificate with a 2.02% APY. Minimum deposit is $5,000. It's available as a regular or IRA certificate. The special is listed on the credit union's home page as of 2/1/10. According to the promo page, the special is scheduled to last through 2/07/2010.
There's an online application for membership and account opening via Andera, a common service used for account opening. In the application page that covers eligibility, the bottom of the page states "None of the above apply. I would like to join one of the following organizations." In the select box, Paramount Theater Assocation is the only one included. There's a $15 fee to join this association, and it appears to be open to all.
The only problem with this online application is that it doesn't include the 15-month CD special as an option. Last year I called about this regarding a similar CD special, and according to the CSR, a member can call and open the CD by phone. The CSR should be able to fund the CD by transferring the money from the member's Velocity savings or checking account. For someone new, that person should be able to apply for membership online and fund the savings account. Once the membership is complete and the savings account funded, the new member should be able to open the CD by phone.
In addition to Paramount Theater Association members, credit union membership is open to those who live or work in one of the following Texas counites: Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop or Caldwell. Please refer to their Eligibility Page for the full details. Membership requires a minimum $5 deposit into the savings account.
Branches are located in Austin and Round Rock, Texas.
May Soon Be Dropping NCUA Deposit Insurance
Velocity Credit Union is in the process of switching its deposit insurance from NCUA to private ASI. I reviewed this issue in my Velocity/ASI post last September. The credit union reported in early January that they received enough member votes to make this switch. The results must still be officially tabulated and approved by the NCUA, and I don't see any indication that this has been done yet. Nevertheless, it seems likely that Velocity will soon be depending entirely on the private ASI for its deposit insurance. I wonder how many deposits have been withdrawn because of this. Perhaps this is a reason for this CD special (although they did have a similar special last year).
The credit union's ratings for safety and soundness are above average: 4 stars (excellent) at BauerFinancial and 3 stars (performing) at Bankrate.com. Both ratings are based on 9/30/09 financial data. The credit union is currently federally insured by the NCUA (Charter # 68359).

Columbus firefighters were sent to a reported gas leak at 1:43 p.m. today at 730 23rd St.
When firefighters arrived, they found a gas line had been ruptured by a manually operated post hole digger. A loud hissing sound could be heard in the area of the home. The owner of the home, Ryan Fisher, said that he was using the digging tool to prepare the area for the installation of a patio deck. Fisher said that as soon as he heard the hissing of the gas he evacuated his family from the home.
Vectren arrived on the scene within five minutes of firefighters' arrival, said Capt. Mike Wilson, Columbus Fire Department spokesman. Donning protective clothing, Vectren employee Rob Jones had the leak under control at 2:05 p.m., Wilson said.
According to Jones, the largest concern for a leak of this nature is the migration of gas into the home or under the ground. He stated that since the leak was well vented, the danger was reduced.
Columbus firefighters used gas meters to ensure the safety of residents within the area. The gas meter reading showed that the home was clear. Vecten remained on the scene to repair the gas line.

Verizon Receives Public Safety Corporate Vital Link Award From Montgomery County, Maryland
LAUREL, Md., March 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Each year since 1974, the Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce recognizes the police and law enforcement officers, firefighters, rescue personnel and Department of Corrections employees who dedicate their lives to protecting the people and property of Maryland's most populated county. In addition to honoring individual members of the public safety community for their valor and service, the Chamber also recognizes a private-sector business for its role in helping a public safety agency transform and advance its mission to meet 21 st-century challenges. This year's recipient of the Public Safety Corporate Vital Link Award is Verizon. The company was nominated by Montgomery County Sheriff Darren Popkin for its contributions and partnerships with public safety and for its support of the Montgomery County Family Justice Center.Mike Maiorana, Verizon Wireless regional president noted, "As the son of a police officer, I have extreme respect and personal understanding of the sacrifices you who are charged with ensuring our safety and security make every day. We're proud to put our technologies and solutions to work for Montgomery County to help keep citizens safe." Since the Montgomery County Family Justice Center (MCFJC) first opened in 2009, Verizon has contributed innovative technologies to help enhance victim safety and improve communications. Among the technology solutions that Verizon has donated to the MCFJC is videoconferencing equipment that connects domestic violence victims who visit the Center with judges in the county courthouse. As a result of this technology, victims have been able to receive protective orders more quickly and from the safety, security and comfort of the center, thus reducing the number of places a victim has to travel to for services and eliminating the possibility of having to face her abuser in court. The MCFJC reports that this technology has saved lives and transformed the way the court system handles the issuing of initial Protective Orders.

May 1, 2016
Many folks across the eastern portion of the United States are wondering why this winter has turned so cold and ugly. It has to do with a couple of weather events. The most important is El Nino. El Nino, a warming of the Pacific Ocean equatorial region, has given us numerous storms this fall and winter. It certainly has encouraged a wet and chilly weather pattern. Also, significant warming has occurred in the Arctic region this winter. This warming typically forces colder air farther south than usual. The combination of those events and a few other variables has give most of the East one of the most brutal winters in about 30 years. We've seen some of the coldest temperatures in eastern North Carolina than we've seen in almost 30 years. The forecast over the next two weeks offers little encouragement. It may definitely go down as a winter to remember.

Frances Mayes--widely published poet, gourmet cook, and travel writer--opens the door to a wondrous new world when she buys and restores an abandoned villa in the spectacular Tuscan countryside. In evocative language, she brings the reader along as she discovers the beauty and simplicity of life in Italy. Mayes also creates dozens of delicious seasonal recipes from her traditional kitchen and simple garden, all of which she includes in the book. Doing for Tuscany what M.F.K. Fisher and Peter Mayle did for Provence, Mayes writes about the tastes and pleasures of a foreign country with gusto and passion.
About the Author
Frances Mayes is the author of the best-selling Under the Tucsan Sun and Bella Tuscany. She and her husband divide their time between their homes in San Rafael, California, and Cortona, Italy.
Praise For…
A New York Times Notable Book of 1997
"This beautifully written memoir about taking chances, living in Italy. loving a house and, always, the pleasures of food, would make a perfect gift for a loved one. But it's so delicious, read it first yourself."
--USA Today
"Irresistible...a sensous book for a sensous countryside."
--Minneapolis Star-Tribune
"An intense celebration of what [Mayes] calls 'the voluptuousness of Italian life' . . . appealing and very vivid . . . [The] book seems like the kind of thing you'd tuck into a picnic basket on an August day . . . or better yet, keep handy on the bedside table in the depths of January."
—New York Times Book Review
"Armchair travel at its most enticing."
"Mayes [has] perfect vision. . . . I do not doubt that centuries form now, whoever lives in Bramasole will one day uncover bits of pottery used at Mayes' table. She has, by the sweat of her brow and the strength of her vision, become a layer in the history of this place."
--Los Angeles Times

Our last two babies we were in Ontario when we delivered so I haven't been to the IWK yet (other than for ultrasounds). I'm wondering what everyone's experiences have been, any advice you can give or tips for a 'newbie'.
mrskrunchy, is there an LC at the IWK that comes to see you? I remember someone mentioning that but they did not live in NS.
Does anyone have any tips on what you should definitely bring or leave at home or if should get a private room, etc? This is my first too so any info is much appreciated!
This will be my 5th time at the IWK and I have nothing but positive comments when people ask. The nurses/doctors were all wonderful! I felt we had lots of help with breastfeeding and caring for a new baby.
My one and only complaint is, with our last birth, we had requested a private room (I am extremely shy and wasn't keen on having to have a room mate) but as it turned out, they were too full when we went into labour and I did have to share a room. This ended up being a good thing as I still keep in touch with my "room mate" Also, as it turned out, they were out of cots. My husband was offered a couch somewhere else on the same floor (if I remember correctly) which I wasn't happy about but what can you do? At least I knew he was there. This was 4 years ago. I'm hoping this time there will be lots of private rooms with cots available!!!! (every other birth we did have a private room with a cot) We also ended up being re-admitted back to the hospital as the baby needed to go to NICU. Here I was given a private room and a lot of support by the nurses there which I really needed at that time.

Hikers asked to stay off muddy trailsApril 19,2013
Hikers asked to
stay off trails
WATERBURY CENTER The Green Mountain Club has announced the start of mud season and has urged hikers to stay off muddy trails and trails at higher elevations that still have extensive snow or ice cover.
In a statement, the club said when hikers tramp on saturated soils, they cause irreversible erosion and damage to the trail and surrounding vegetation.
Every step not taken on a wet hiking trail today helps assure a stable treadway tomorrow and reduce future costly tread repairs, said Will Wiquist, executive director of the club in the statement. Please help prevent soil erosion by staying off the trails during mud season.
Hiking trails on land managed by the Vermont Department of Forests, Parks and Recreation and the Green Mountain Club are closed until Memorial Day. Hikers are also strongly discouraged by the club from using hiking trails in the Green Mountain National Forest.MORE IN Vermont NewsFAIR HAVEN Residents will go to the polls Tuesday to vote, for a second time this year, on the...

Soldier shares experiences with military camp kids
July 14, 2010
By Danielle Toste, ASC Public Affairs
Story Highlights
- A decorated veteran of deployed service visited and spoke with 54 military children July 7 at the Military Kids Camp in Blue Grass, Iowa.
ROCK ISLAND, Ill.- A decorated veteran of deployed service visited and spoke with 54 military children July 7 at the Military Kids Camp in Blue Grass, Iowa.
Capt. Scott Leifker, a Purple Heart and Bronze Star recipient, shared personal stories of his family coping with deployments and about the injuries he sustained in Iraq. Leifker, who commands Army Sustainment Command's Headquarters Company, discussed the concept of what a hero is and had a question & answer session at the end of a 30-minute presentation.
Camp Abe Lincoln hosted the camp for military children throughout Illinois and Iowa from July 4-9. Participants, ages 8-17, have family members in Army, Army National Guard, Air Force, Air Force Reserve and Navy. One-third of the kids have a family member currently deployed and all but one have been through a deployment.
This is the second year the camp has been offered free to Quad Cities children. The week's activities focused on the importance of communicating with deployed family members, how to cope with the absence of a parent and how to re-adjust once the parent returns.
For queries, contact the Army Sustainment Command Public Affairs Office at email@example.com or by phone at 309-782-5421.

A private pilot who crashed his float plane Sunday afternoon trying to take off from Willow Lake only suffered minor injuries, Alaska State Troopers said. The wrecked plane was leaking fuel in the lake after the crash, troopers said.
Stephen Long, 63, told authorities he had just taken off in his 1981 Taylorcraft F21 when the plane started to stall because of a lack of wing speed -- he wasn't going fast enough to gain altitude, troopers said.
Long, who lives in Anchorage, tried to turn around to avoid hitting trees and clipped his right wing on the water, partially sheering it near the frame, troopers said.
Numerous witnesses called 911 starting at 4:17 p.m.
Some people who heard the crash -- but didn't see it -- jumped in their pontoon boat and zipped across the lake to the damaged plane.
By then, Long was sitting on one of the floats. The rescuers took him in their pontoon boat to the Willow Community Center, where an ambulance was waiting. Troopers said he was suffering back pain and had a gash on his chin.
Someone driving another pontoon boat tried to tow the plane to shore until one of the floats caught on the lake bottom. The float had a leak and took on water, partially sinking the plane.
The plane remained upright and is now sitting about 20 feet to 30 feet off shore on the southwest side of the lake, troopers said. The state Department of Environmental Conservation was alerted about the fuel leak and began arrangements for a hazardous materials response, troopers said. The National Transportation Safety Board also was notified.

I hope you had a good weekend.
As you know, I've been heavily involved promoting architecture best practices for sustainability. Microsoft has established a new environmental site which has a lot of promise.
Some highlights from the site for me:
However, this good site is only as good as the those passionate about the subject continues to contribute best practices and insights. Right now, most of these are from a little town in Redmond, Washington (I know for a fact that there are many very bright insightful people there).
But it is my hope that many from around the world will begin contributing their experiences and perspectives to this site as this galvanizing theme continues to grow in this industry.
have fun,

I remember vividly reading Anne McCaffrey for the first time. I was twelve years old, sitting in the glassed-in patio in our New Orleans house, with the bright syrupy sunlight of summer lying like a blanket on the patio furniture beside me. In my lap, I had an enormous copy of the New American Dictionary, a tome that dwarfed my legs. I kept it open and set the novel on top of it, and read it with an uncapped red pen in my hand. To my right I had an open spiral notebook.
Every few words, I would stop, painstakingly underline an unfamiliar word, leaf through the dictionary, read the definition and then copy it into my notebook. And then… I would resume reading from the beginning of the sentence with new understanding of the phrase but a rather interrupted sense of the narrative.
And I did that… for the entire book. It was full of red ink. But it was the only way to get through it, because it was so full of big words that twelve-year-old me knew she wouldn't even grasp the story unless she did the work.
My kindle would have delighted young jaguar. Instead of having to go through all that trouble, she could have just highlighted the word with a pointer or finger and… pop! There's the definition. And she could have merrily gone on reading with a lot less interruption; no hunting in a giant book, no copying so she could find it again faster, no uncomfortable weight on her lap.
As an older reader, when I ran into a word I didn't know, most of the time I just skipped it and got what I could out of context before moving on. I didn't (and still don't) have Young Me's tolerance for interruption. But since getting my kindle, I use the dictionary look-up feature constantly. Why be confused or have to make do with context? I think. I use it even on words I vaguely know, or think I know but want a refresher on. It's fabulous. I love the look-up feature. I love it so much, apparently, that I take the habit with me off my e-book reader. I was reading a paper library book not long ago and ran into an unfamiliar word, and I touched it in full expectation of enlightenment.
Seriously. Not as a joke. It had become a reflex. "In response to confusion, touch for more information." When nothing happened, my reaction was to be startled: the expected response had not happend! And then I was chagrined, and I kept reading, and caught myself starting to do it a couple more times.
(I did not go look up those words later, I'm sorry to say.)
A few days ago, my kindle spontaneously loaded a software update. Imagine my reaction to discover that when I highlight a word now, I can look it up… on Wikipedia. Wikipedia's reliability is always an issue, of course. But now I think of all the historical personages referred to in the historical fantasies I've been reading, or the Sherlock Holmes mysteries that refer to traditions, current events, and locations I know nothing about, and have a moment of glee. At last! Context!
But still, that was not the coolest thing I got with that software update. That one I found when I ran into a foreign word I was fairly sure was Spanish but had such a weird verb ending that I thought it might be Italian. I highlighted it with a 'why not' feeling, checked 'more' and found a 'translation' function. When I chose it, it itself detected the language and then furnished the translation…!
This is Spanish. It is this verb case. It means 'differentiate.'
This was so cool I just started loading random books with foreign words in it and translating them.
I recently read the unabridged Les Miserables, and I feel like between the (then) contemporary cultural references and the untranslated French, I understood maybe 65% of it… if I'm being generous. To think of what a different experience it would be to read it now…!
When I first bought an e-book reader, I thought of it as a handy replacement for books. Lighter, easier to store, more convenient. Now I think of all the ways it makes my reading experience more fulfilling, and I know I could never go back.
Now if I could just get them to let me bundle an author-specific dictionary with an e-book, so that people could touch an alien word and get the right definition… *rubs hands together*

Michael Kitces: Don't Confuse an Asset Class With an Active Manager
What's the biggest mistake investors make when evaluating a fund?
Asset allocation and effective diversification have been long-standing tenets of portfolio construction. In fact, while long credited as a key outcome of modern portfolio theory, the truth is that the benefits of diversification extend back even further. In his seminal paper "Portfolio Selection" from 1952, Harry Markowitz stated "diversification is both observed and sensible; a rule of behavior which does not imply the superiority of diversification must be rejected both as a hypothesis and as a maxim." In other words, diversification wasn't actually an outcome of modern portfolio theory, it was a fundamental assumption used in creating it in the first place.
What modern portfolio theory did show, however, was that the benefits of diversification and their impact on reducing portfolio volatility and enhancing risk-adjusted return could be quantified, through the measure of correlation. The caveat, however, is that determining the benefits required an accurate estimate of what correlation would be in the first place. Though many assumed that correlation would be stable, it has been revealed otherwise, especially in the 2008-2009 financial crisis (and in fact, many other high volatility periods in history) when correlations rose together at the worst possible time.
In the search for new alternatives to low correlation, though, investors have begun to move down a dangerous path – one that fails to recognize the underlying factors that lead to a low correlation in the first place. After all, there are many different ways to generate a low or negative correlation, and still much debate about what constitutes an alternative asset class in the first place. Adding an investment with low correlation can be done by investing in a completely new, different asset class. It can be done by investing in something very illiquid (though in truth that is perceived as "low correlation" may actually be little more than a lack of price transparency). It can be done by buying a well diversified portfolio (as almost by definition, buying a well diversified basket of investments will show a reduced correlation to any one of them in particular). And it can be done by buying an active manager whose investments will continually be changing, such that the correlation to anything else will be low and/or won't sustain for long.
The reason why these distinctions matter, though, is because they are all present to varying degrees in mutual funds, and while the first represents true diversification, and arguably the second might as well, the last two do not. The third option actually is diversification, not an alternative to be added to create diversification. And the fourth is perhaps the most concerning option. Because the reality is that while an active manager may or may not deliver value, the outcome is not dependent upon what the low-correlation diversification benefits of the asset class(es) that the active manager invests in (especially if they change over time), but the effectiveness of that manager to make the trades at the right time. Which means, for better or for worse, the opportunity of an active manager is not about having more diversification, but simply about picking a good manager that makes good active decisions, and the manager should be scrutinized accordingly.
So the next time you're considering a mutual fund to add, be certain that you've really considered whether you're investing in an asset class or an active manager; one of those relies on being a low-correlation diversifier, while the other relies on the effectiveness of the manager to make good decisions, and it's crucial to evaluate the investment accordingly!

NBA Finals notebook: Defending OKC
Miami forward Shane Battier ranks as one of the league's top defenders.
Asked if there is an art to defending without fouling, Battier said: "Yes. It's a fine line, and every game is different because you have to understand how the refs are calling the game. You have to understand the players you're playing against. These guys (the Thunder) are foul-drawers, so you really have to stay disciplined and concentrate every possession, because if you have a mental lapse, they're going to shoot free throws. That's how this team really, really beats you. You have to have amazing discipline mentally.
"You let them shoot 30 free throws, it's a losing equation."
The Thunder actually has been hurt by its free-throw shooting.
During the regular season, OKC led the league in free-throw percentage (.806), free throws made (21.4 per game) and was second in attempts (26.4). So far in the Finals, however, the Thunder is shooting just 73.6 percent from the line (39 for 53).
The Thunder and Heat are two of the most athletic teams in the league, but OKC ranked dead last in assists and turnovers during the regular season, while Miami tied for 20th and 21st, respectively.
Rankings for both teams have improved considerably in the postseason, which helps explain their journeys to the NBA Finals.
Battier credits his teammates' passing for his 17.0-point scoring and 70.6-percent shooting.
"I'm getting good looks," Battier said. "We're not the best passing team in the history of basketball, and I've let people know that on my team, so I've gotten some good passes. I've told those guys, 'If you give me good passes, I'm going to make some shots.' We're getting some very good passes in this series."
The second and final part of MTV's original sports documentary "Nothing But Net," featuring Thunder star Kevin Durant with the Douglass boys basketball team, will air at noon Sunday on MTV2.
Durant spent some time with the Trojans during their season, including serving as a referee for a scrimmage and bowling with the team at RedPin Bowling Lounge in Bricktown.
Douglass players also received all-black Nike Kevin Durant shoes as well.
The Trojans won their third consecutive Class 4A state title.
Miami center Chris Bosh, who is 6-foot-11, 235 pounds, is hardly known as a banger. However, he has made his presence known in the first two games of the series, averaging 13.0 points and 10.0 rebounds.
"CB is so huge for us because he gives us the dimension we just don't have," Battier said. "We just don't have size down low, a guy who can just wreak havoc in the middle. We survived basically two series without him (out with an abdomen injury). There's no way we can beat this team (OKC) without CB."
With Miami's win in Game 2, ticket prices for the three games in Miami beginning Sunday are moving upward.
The average price for a ticket to Sunday's Game 3 is $616, an $11 increase from Thursday, according to numbers provided by StubHub.com.
A Game 4 ticket is averaging $566 and Game 5 is averaging $707.
The low price for a Game 3 ticket was $170, compared to $265 for Thursday's Game 5.
The Thunder didn't have a fast break point until well into the third quarter in Game 2.
The problems in getting out in transition started on the defensive side.
"The defense is not where it needs to be," Thabo Sefolosha said. "I feel like for a big part of the game, we're just trading baskets, and our brand of basketball is playing defense first and we've got to get back to that.
"If we've got to take the ball out of the net every time, we can't really run that way, so it starts with the defense."
The Heat defense played a part, but only to a point, James Harden said.
"They did a pretty good job, but that goes with us not making shots, and we couldn't get defensive stops," he said.
This is Battier's first Finals, but he has heard plenty from other players.
"Any road win in the playoffs is significant," Battier said. "I'm excited to get a win. Like (Phoenix point guard) Steve Nash said, 'When you lose a game in the playoffs, you just feel like you're never going to win another game, and when you win a game, you feel like you can do anything.' The truth lies somewhere in between."
Battier on why he is so confident shooting: "It's the Finals. I'm not saving any shots for summer league. I'm too old for that anymore."

Heritage-Crystal Clean LLC Stock Upgraded (HCCI)
TheStreet) -- Heritage-Crystal Clean (Nasdaq: HCCI) has been upgraded by TheStreet Ratings from hold to buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, revenue growth, compelling growth in net income, solid stock price performance and expanding profit margins. Although no company is perfect, currently we do not see any significant weaknesses which are likely to detract from the generally positive outlook. Highlights from the ratings report include:NEW YORK (
- The gross profit margin for HERITAGE-CRYSTAL CLEAN INC is currently very high, coming in at 75.50%. Regardless of HCCI's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 2.60% trails the industry average.
- Looking at where the stock is today compared to one year ago, we find that it is not only higher, but it has also clearly outperformed the rise in the S&P 500 over the same period. Although other factors naturally played a role, the company's strong earnings growth was key. Looking ahead, the stock's rise over the last year has already helped drive it to a level which is relatively expensive compared to the rest of its industry. We feel, however, that the other strengths this company displays justify these higher price levels.
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Commercial Services & Supplies industry. The net income increased by 81.8% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $0.52 million to $0.95 million.
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 0.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 20.3%. This growth in revenue appears to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, improving the earnings per share.
- Despite the fact that HCCI's debt-to-equity ratio is mixed in its results, the company's quick ratio of 2.46 is high and demonstrates strong liquidity.

And in Aussie and Diminishing tradition, I would like to mark this milestone in my usual sporting fashion.........
(For all my non-Aussie followers, sorry. I know you all glaze over and switch off and bounce away as soon as I mention cricket. But I love it..........)
Humble Aussie cricketer who was the silent achiever?
The steely nuggetty little left handed batsman who had a reputation for grinding away in order to open up for Australia? Some said a plodder, but did those same critics realise he holds a better strike rate than notably "sexier" batsman such as Mark Waugh and Damien Martyn?
In partnerships he was solid and motivating and unstoppable: so a more gracious and determined and more collaborative batsman you will struggle to find.
His top score of 250 runs against England at the MCG (in the 2002-03 Ashes series) was a record breaker.
He retired in 2007, and I still miss him. I give you Justin Langer.
And I also need to say a very heartfelt thank you.
Last week I felt like shite, and I very nearly didn't blog. But I have made a commitment to blog daily, so that meant blogging about feeling like crap.
The comments and emails and Tweets and Facebook messages of love and support that have I received are just amazing. I am truly touched. So thank you. To everyone who reached out, thank you.
I am gradually getting out of my fog. More on that soon.

The Kids At Duke Are Going To Love This
Over a period of 18 years, 3100 students at The University of North Carolina were afforded the opportunity to pad their GPA by taking classes that had no actual requirements, and never even met. Over 1/2 the students were athletes, who without the help presumably would not have stayed eligible to

Social Scientist Diederik Stapel Dismissed for Academic Misconduct
"It was a quest for aesthetics, for beauty — instead of the truth." The recent dismissal of Dutch social scientist Diederik Stapel for academic fraud [SLNYT] leads the article's author to wonder whether "the scientific misconduct that has come to light in recent years suggests at the very least that the number of bad actors in science isn't as insignificant as many would like to believe."
The flawed science surrounding Diederik Stapel
Press Release The Levelt, Noort and Drenth Committees have published their joint final report of the investigation into the massive academic fraud by Diederik Stapel, a social psychologist, who is known mainly for his work on social priming. English translation of the full report [pdf]. [more inside]

In 2010, Rep. D.J. Bettencourt became the youngest majority leader in the history of the New Hampshire House of Representatives, as well as the youngest House majority leader of any state legislature in the U.S. On May 25, 2012, Bettencourt announced his resignation from the House, citing his upcoming wedding and his new job as executive director of the New Hampshire Legal Rights Foundation. Three days after his resignation, Bettencourt resigned again – this time with an apology for "misrepresenting [his] work." [more inside]

HCS to extend school days to make up lost dayPublished 12:37pm Monday, January 13, 2014
Hartselle School Superintendent Dr. Vic Wilson said they will be extending several days of school to make up for the school day lost to extreme cold weather.
Wilson, who has been making appearances at school assemblies over the last week, informed students and teachers that they won't hold school on Saturday or use a holiday to make up for the lost day of class.
"The only thing that would make us consider that is too many days lost to weather," Wilson said.
Wilson said they haven't decided which days will be extended. He plans to discuss this with the principals in the near future.

Newport beat Mount Vernon's boys 66-55 for a trip to regionals, and Lake Stevens edged the Newport girls 48-43 to stay alive.
BELLEVUE — Everything seemed to click for the Newport Knights on their home floor Tuesday night as they rolled to a 66-55 boys basketball win over Mount Vernon.
The Knights (17-8) clinched a spot in the regionals and will face Eastmont at 6 p.m. Saturday at Wenatchee High School. That winner advances to the Class 4A quarterfinals Feb. 28 at the Tacoma Dome.
Everyone seemed to contribute for Newport Tuesday night.
It was senior forward Miles Fowler chasing down an errant Mount Vernon pass for an easy finger-roll basket to give the Knights a 13-9 lead early in the first quarter.

It was junior guard Jason Lock draining a three-pointer at the first-quarter buzzer, putting the Knights up 24-13.
It was Isaac Dotson slamming home a thunderous right-handed dunk — his first of the season — when the Bulldogs threatened in the third quarter.
And it was junior guard Will Ferris scoring to give the Knights an 11-point lead late in the fourth quarter after an amazing second effort from Lock kept a loose ball in bounds near the Knights' basket.
It all came as a welcome sight to Newport coach Steve Haizlip after his team suffered a slew of injuries after Christmas.
"These guys have just stuck together," Haizlip said. "Now, we're just getting at full strength, which is so great."
The Knights were without three players — Dotson, sophomore center Calivin Throckmorton, and senior center Riley Herring — at one stretch this season.
Dotson scored 17 points Tuesday night and has 997 for his Newport career.
"When we found out we had the opportunity to get another home game, we wanted it really bad," Dotson said. "When we found out we were going to be playing here, we knew it was going to end in a win."
Dotson was one of four Knights in double figures.
"These guys share the ball," Haizlip said. "They're not a selfish group of guys. They're team players, and we know if we play as a team, we're a good team."
The Bulldogs (16-9) came into the game winners of six of their past eight games.

Anna Crabtree and Chiara Victor each scored nine points for the Knights (16-9) in their final game.

Hazumi and Maho concept arts by shirotsukiWatch
©2011-2016 shirotsuki
More homework! Apart from Monster Soup, I get to do another animatic for storyboarding. I'm doing a piece about two of my "four seasons" characters, Hazumi (spring) and Maho (winter). We're having to come up with concept arts for when we present our ideas tomorrow. It was fun to draw them again, though I wish I could've actually spent a little quality time on these @_@ ;;;
Nice work with the color schemes and moods. I'm also doing an eastern like female series called Fountain Guard on my gallery. Please check them out.
I simply adore the colours and the costume design!
I LOVE Maho
love the colors
love the black white red one who i assume is winter
That design for winter IS. SO. COOL. SO VERY COOL.
i love them all but my favorite is the one in white,black and red~
This is amazing! Did u ever finish the other 2 seasons?
I totally love these characters! And the animation that goes with them!
Such graceful style and delicate linework, it's really inspiring!
I know oyu say you wish you had more quality time on them, but the shapes are already catchy and so elegant, I enjoy the flow of Hazumi's sleeves and the way you did Maho's hair.
Such graceful style and delicate linework, it's really inspiring!
I know oyu say you wish you had more quality time on them, but the shapes are already catchy and so elegant, I enjoy the flow of Hazumi's sleeves and the way you did Maho's hair.
love these desighns!
These are really gorgeous. I remember a while back finding an animation of them online, but now I can't find it. Is it still out there? If it is, I'd love a link so I can see them again and again.
I love MAho's design. so pretty!!
Love her feets, LOL (I don't even have a reason to justify favoring her feet among all the awesomeness of this picture...I just really like how they're drawn, lol!)
NICE! I like the color contrast for the character on the right, and the one on the far left looks so pretty/cute ^^!
i find tht maho rlly displays winter, good job ^^
Beautiful renders =u=
This is gorgeous! I love your line work and soft colors.
aaaaa so beautiful work...you r amazing
i love the dress of the girl who is in the midle!
I love both of them, but if I had to choose one.....It would have to be winter. Her clothes, eyes, and hair are just fantastic!
This is stunning!
My eyes just keep feasting on that red and pink. Gorgeous! Also I love, love, love Hazumi's scrawny little legs. They suit her wonderfully!
beautiful! awesome concept! now are you going to do the other two in details?... please!!!!!
I love the pose and the colors and especially Maho, so cool ! ^^
Oh my god. This is the first time I've ever seen your art and I just... I LOVE you. Your work is so wonderful.
wow nice
They're gorgeous! Beautiful poses to show off the fluidity of their attire.
i absolutely love the movement of the last two. stunning!
So pretty~~
Really lovely. It appears from the way you have the process setup that Spring becomes winter in a sense, which is really quite clever. If this were the case, perhaps incorporating some of the underlying red inner-kimono from winter into the inner-kimono of spring would establish a link. Though thats really just a thought Fantastic job!
Spring... becomes... winter?
huh >_< wut?
I be confuzzuld
huh >_< wut?
I be confuzzuld
The two look similar enough in concept that I think it would make an interesting twist. When Spring isn't being spring, she becomes winter. The polar opposite!
So pretty! I love winter's hair ; ;
Amazing O.O. Just stunning
simply gorgeous!
I love the design and movement of the one on the far right.
really beautiful colors I have a character very similar to Hazumi. Despite Hazumi is more beautiful (cause of the colors). Really good choice!!
Your style is so unique. You're amazing.
these look great. Love Maho's hair especially.
they are beautiful and cute *_* i hope you'll be posting what your class will be doing with them

last year i remember having a very intense dream about a nuclear apocalypse which i survived. Wheni came out from my hiding place in africa i remember most of the worlds population had been wiped out, but there were a few tribes of survivors. This is the odd bit; on visiting these tribes i was shocked to find that they had no heads - instead they just had a big DNA spiral coming off thier shoulders?!!?! The theme to this part of the dream was all about human evolution but i cannot remember the details.
There was lots more to this dream but i remember it stayed with me for a few days and gave me a really bad headache for a couple of days too - as some of my more intense dreams do.
Anyways, to the point: i read somwhere very briefly that some children are being born with a third strand (or was it a helix?) of DNA instead of the usual two. Aparently this is going on, but the scientific community is trying to keep it under wraps untill they know more
Does anyone know anything about this? and can anyone tell me a little about DNA as i know virtually nothing about it!
