The revolt of French Canada described in these pages, appeared to end, as did most nationalist movements before 1850, in tragedy and utter frustration. The Canadians were fortunate when compared to many Europeans, however, in that most of their leaders survived the armed risings of 1837-38 and could take up the threads of constitutional development where they had been dropped five years earlier. It was they who carried to completion the work begun by Pierre Bédard and Louis Bourdages in 1810. After 1840 these leaders owed much to the steadiness of principle and the lack of racial antagonism displayed by the liberals in Canada West who had for several years been working for the introduction of cabinet governement, and much also to a few of the Governor-Generals sent from England who recognized clearly that Canada could not be developed or governed successfully without the co-operation of the French-speaking population.
The chief contribution of the French Canadians to the evolution of the British Commonwealth is that they have demonstrated that a large and ever-increasing group can live peacefully and happily within the boundaries of the Empire without abandoning their own laws and language or their traditional way of living. The Dutch in South Africa, who in many ways had more in common with their British conquerors, and who enjoyed from the first greater participation in the somewhat autocratic form of government inherited from the Dutch East India Company, missed the opportunity to work out a similar solution because so large a proportion of the vigorous farming population emigrated north and passed out of the jurisdiction of the government at Capetown, at the very moment when the French Canadians were at last learning to co-operate politically with the liberal party leaders in Upper Canada.
A state or confederation in which people of different race and language participate while maintaining their own identity may seem to most Americans and to some Canadians less satisfactory than the solution achieved in the United States and Mexico where people of very different stock have, for the most part, lost the sense of being separate entities and become American or Mexican. Certainly it is true that the French Can-

Animation: How the Penumbral Lunar Eclipse Will Look
During this penumbral lunar eclipse, the Earth's main shadow does not cover the Moon. As the Earth's shadow (umbra) misses the Moon during a penumbral lunar eclipse, there are no other locations on Earth where the Moon appears partially or totally eclipsed during this event. A penumbral lunar eclipse can be a bit hard to see as the shadowed part is only a little bit fainter than the rest of the Moon.

"colima mexican hot or not" Estado de Colima by Marisa_caro
Estado de Colima Travel Guide: 49 reviews and 118 photos
Bordering on the Pacific Ocean, and nestled up against against Jalisco and Michoacan, the small state of Colima enjoys the best of both culinary worlds: the ocean's bounty of fresh seafood, and the typical ranch dishes of Western Mexico. In addition, it boasts a legacy of over 3,000 years of continuous civilization, and the attendant deeply-rooted food traditions that go with this heritage.
In addition to sugar plantations, much of largely rural Colima is covered with plantations of coffee, bananas, avocado, limes, tomatoes and tropical varieties of fruit such as mango, mamey, tamarind and coconut. Many of these are used to make the typical Colima beverages and candies.
Cocada, a coconut candy, dulce de tamarindo, dried candied bananas and alfajores de piña are some of the most well-known regional sweets. Tuba, a mildly alcoholic drink made from palm sap, and tejuino, a fermented corn drink, are popular beverages, along with bate, a thick drink made with chia-like seeds, and the ponches of fermented maguey that come in fruit flavors. Ponche de grenada, pomegranate punch, is the most well-known, but tamarind and guava are also used.
- In a nutshell:visit colima is more than just travel, is a nice experience...

"Some people think my review process is flawed," Edmonds' Hans Lienesch confesses on his blog, Ramen Rater, where the unemployed 36-year-old posts his quantified impressions of instant noodles.
Lienesch's methodology has come under increased online scrutiny since The Weekly Herald ran a front-page feature on his ramen project this month. Like many other amateur food bloggers, Lienesch has forged his own star system to make sense of the 400-plus noodles he's sampled. While he hasn't attempted to assign specific points to flavor, texture, or presentation--an approach popular with many self-appointed chicken-wing, burger, and pizza graders--he has a clear sense of the difference between zero-star ramen ("Tastes literally like crap," he writes) and five-star ramen ("Requires me to call someone up and tell them how amazingly wonderful these noodles are.")
Still, his categories strike some fellow ramen fans as inexact, or--worse still--unfair.
"A couple of people had a fit about it," Lienesch says, recalling when he tagged a popular Korean brand with 2.5 stars. "Hey, it's my opinion."
Bloggers aren't the only food writers who have to contend with star gripes: Restaurant critics at newspapers which employ star systems are frequently called upon to reconcile their reviews with star assignments. But for niche bloggers who offer "reviews you can use" in narrow categories, the hows and whys of assessment are especially important.
My friend Daniel Vaughn has compiled reviews of more than 400 Texas barbecue joints on his blog, Full Custom Gospel BBQ. Vaughn uses a strict six-star system (unlike Lienesch, he doesn't venture into decimal points). He awards one star to a joint that readers shouldn't bother visiting, and saves six stars for consistently spectacular joints that should make readers "reconsider their honeymoon destination." Fans of Texas barbecue won't be surprised to learn Austin's Franklin Barbecue is the sole recipient of a six-star rating.
"I primarily rate the brisket and ribs, so if both are in the great category, then it gets five stars," Vaughn explains by e-mail. "One of the meats must be exceptional to get a four-star rating no matter the quality of the sides. Meat is king. Sauce is not considered."
Sides and ambience aren't star-worthy on their own, but, Vaughn adds, "It can help push a rating up or down if I'm on the fence. Do you get buttered Texas toast, or stale white bread? Did those pintos come straight from the can, or are the beans a special recipe that's cooked in the smoker?"
Translating a subjective experience into stars is tricky, whether the critic is tackling film, music, or dried Asian noodles. Lienesch reports his star system has evolved as he's eaten more ramen. He was initially reluctant to wade into multiple-star territory, hoping he'd find even better noodles deserving of the extra stars. "My palate's getting smarter," Lienesch says. "These days, if I like it, I'm giving it higher marks."
Vaughn's adjusted his expectations instead of his star ratings. "Now that I've been at this for a while, I know that most places are going to be two or three stars, but I go into every situation hoping for the best," he writes.
Lienesch says he plans to continue rating noodles according to his current system. "This is for the long haul," he says. "Luckily, I like noodles."

"James River Plantations" Top 5 Page for this destination James River Plantations Tip by Hopkid
James River Plantations, Richmond: 1 reviews and 1 photos
There are five historic plantation houses and grounds along scenic Route 5 in Charles City County along the north side of the James River east of Richmond. Many date from the earliest years of European settlement in North America. The drive down Route 5 is very relaxing and scenic, especially on a nice spring or fall day. The plantations include:
Sherwood Forest (1730) was owned by 2 U.S. presidents, William Harrison and John Tyler
Westover (1730) was built by the founder of Richmond, William Byrd
Shirley (1723) was home to the mother of Robert E. Lee, who had some schooling in the house
Evelynton (1937), home to the Ruffin family since 1847, was owned by the person who fired the first shot at Fort Sumter at the start of the Civil War
Berkeley (1726) is reputed to be the site of the first Thanksgiving (1619) and is birthplace to a signer of the Declaration of Independence (Benjamin Harrison) and a U.S. president (William Henry Harrison).
All are open to the public and many have guided tours. I would highly recommend a day trip to check out these artifacts of our nation's history.

ACT's Dr. Robert Lanza Voted Top 4 "Most Influential People On Stem Cells"
OTCBB: ACTC), a leader in the field of regenerative medicine, announced today that chief scientific officer Robert Lanza, M.D., is featured on the "TOP 50 Global Stem Cell Influencers" list from Terrapinn's life sciences division, TotalBiopharma ("World Stem Cells & Regenerative Medicine Congress 2013"). The list features the most influential people in the global stem cell and cell therapy field, including world renowned academics, industry players, and governmental officials. Dr. Lanza was among the top four on the list, alongside the University of Wisconsin's Dr. James Thomson, known as the first scientist to derive human embryonic stem cells (in 1998) and for his work with induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells; and Kyoto University's Dr. Shinya Yamanaka, co-winner of the 2012 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for his work with iPS cells, and a winner of the inaugural $3 million Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences earlier this year.Terrapinn, the global firm sponsoring the inaugural list, refers to it as being similar to the "Forbes [Celebrity] 100, but for stem cells." It is the result of a global survey of the stem cell community, which yielded thousands of votes. The 50 personalities were picked based on their career achievements whether this was groundbreaking discovery and research, innovation, or lifetime dedication. More information is available here.

I am new to modifying my own MH dolls and I was wondering what paint would be more appropriate to have that very flat look so you dont see painting streaks ^_^' I need to redo a face i've been working on (the mediums i've been using are showing paint streaks and the gloss is too tacky)
Any paint can do that, its just the technique you use and brush that will cause streaks. I used to use paintbrushes without streaks, but now I use an airbrush. Acrylic paint is best with a matte finish. Avoid the cheaper brands.
ohhh, so you do airbrush. okay, i have one of those i'll give it a try. i've been using spray paints too and when it comes to the face, i noticed it was very good at killing that smooth detail the factory cast had
thank you very much for the response ^_^
thank you very much for the response ^_^
damn it! i literially just thought up an oc called grace reaper -.- well, back to the drawing board
You could always just change the name. Its not like the design is exactly the same.
very true. epic doll by the way did you use one of the packs for this or did you actually do the paint work yourself (i had to use the creation backs with my hand made clothes )
It's really cool! How do you made the bag????
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i have 1 question though... how do you make the box?
it should b in stores its sooooo kool i wish i had that
I want one DX
where can i buy it.
where do i buy this. i need it asap.
Is this an actual character from MH?
No. It's a commissioned OC.
Oh wow! I have seen other commissioned dolls and none of them look half as real as this one (as in an actual doll from Mattel).
Did you sew and make the clothes for her as well? They look great.
Did you sew and make the clothes for her as well? They look great.
I would so buy her if I had the Money
could you make me one???if you can how much would it be

Your Big 12 scheduling guide for the weekend
By Anthony Slater – email@example.com - @anthonyVslater
Should be a smooth weekend for the conference teams, filled with plenty of blowouts. Here's a scheduling guide for the interested viewer:
Marshall at #11 West Virginia – 11 a.m. – FX
Nice little Saturday morning wake-up call to prepare for the rest of the night's action. Dana and the Mountaineers' first game as a Big 12 opponent. And to make things a little more intriguing, Holgorsen heard Marshall may have been studying his hand signals and told the media, "I have one really good one they can memorize."
Tulsa at Iowa State – 2:30 p.m. – FSN
From a competitive standpoint, this is the best Big 12 game this weekend. In all likelihood, it's the only one where a conference team might stumble. Tulsa is slight road favorites over the Cyclones, but this is a toss-up.
South Dakota State at Kansas – 6 p.m.
You won't be able to watch this one on TV. That's probably a good thing.
Northwestern State at Texas Tech – 6 p.m. – FSSW+
Tech should win.
Savannah State at #19 Oklahoma State – 6 p.m. – FCS
We all know how bad this one is going to be. Wes Lunt should be in the locker room after halftime, resting and watching Arizona tape.
Missouri State at #22 Kansas State – 6 p.m.
Wyoming at #15 Texas – 7 p.m. – Longhorn Network
Everyone wants to see how the quarterbacks rotate and perform. David Ash will start. Case McCoy should get some run. But against Wyoming, we won't learn much.
#4 Oklahoma at UTEP – 9:30 p.m. – FSN
Late kickoff in El Paso, but shouldn't take long for the Sooners to take control. I'm pumped to get a look at Trey Metoyer.
SMU at Baylor – Sunday at 5:30 p.m. – FSN
Life after RGIII begins on a Sunday afternoon.
Two other games of state interest
Toledo at Arizona – 9:30 p.m. – ESPNU
This sets up nicely for the Pokes. Jump out to a 60-point halftime lead. Keep the starters in the locker room to rest and make popcorn. Then enjoy a postgame film session on ESPNU.
Florida A&M at Tennessee State – 6 p.m.
No TV for any interested Sooner fans. No reason for the Sooners to waste time watching tape.

Download Chaotica 0.5 beta 4 for Windows: chaoticafractals.com/chaotica_…
Indigo Renderer 3.4 release: www.indigorenderer.com/threepo…
Hi guys, sorry it's been aaaages since the last update I've been extremely busy working on the recent Indigo Renderer 3.4 release!
Although there hasn't been an "official" update to Chaotica since version 0.48, I've been quietly hacking away on it and offering beta versions in the #Aposhack chat channel, the latest version of which is linked above for downloading. Thanks very much to you guys for all the help and encouragement, it's really really appreciated!
Saving images with alpha channel is now supported, and alpha has its own response curve. Besides the performance and accuracy improvements, the other major additions are the licensing system and the diagnostics window, which I'd like to quickly talk about here:
Licensing system
Chaotica now uses the same licensing system used in Indigo Renderer, which means there are no separate commercial and noncommercial versions anymore. When you buy a Chaotica licence for commercial use, you get private page on the Glare Technologies Store where you can enter a hardware key identifying your computer, for which you get a licence key to unlock the commercial rendering features for that computer. Each Chaotica licence comes with 2 "render node" licences; these are intended to be used with network rendering, however this is not implemented yet, so these node licences will function as full master licences for the time being.
Here's the Indigo manual page about the licensing system: www.indigorenderer.com/documen…
If you want to purchase a commercial Chaotica licence, you can do so here: Buy in Euros or Buy in US Dollars
Finally, please note that all Indigo licences are valid for use with Chaotica! You can simply paste any valid Indigo licence key into Chaotica to unlock it.
Diagnostics window
The other major addition in this build is the diagnostics window, which fixes a long-standing problem with Chaotica: when you load up some parameters and they fail to work for some reason, it would do so silently and not give any hint as to why, either crashing or displaying a black rendered image. No more!
Now, when you load parameters with 3D camera settings, it will warn about this incompatibility, likewise if it encounters any variations it doesn't recognise. If there were no problems detected, it will tell you that it's 64bit compatible; this is a huge time saver, and should hopefully help a lot of new users get going.
Finally, some words about the future... I've been working on Chaotica really hard recently, making a lot of "behind the scenes" changes that will enable the really exciting features to come. Among these are a high-powered editor, which will finally show the true power and inner workings of Chaotica's IFS engine. I am very fortunate to have the consent and support of my parent company, Glare, to use many of the required technologies in Indigo I get to re-use a lot of code, and in general there is great cross-pollination going on! The future seems very bright for Chaotica, and I'm really excited to finally be doing what I've wanted to do since about 2003, when I first started coding fractal renderers.
Anyway, please let me know if you encounter any issues with this beta release, and hopefully we'll see the proper version 0.5 release soon! Thanks again for your time and support
* Commercial licences are now available at the Glare Store: store.glaretechnologies.com/ch…
* Added alpha channel support in PNG saving
* Added diagnostic window, to warn about unrecognised variations/paramerers, and to list plugins used (if not 64bit compatible)
* Added silent mode via -silent commandline option, launches Chaotica without user interface (console only),
use with -haltsl to set halting SL, -o to set output path, eg. chaotica.exe example.flame -silent -haltsl 5 -o out.png
* Made node licences act as master licences, until network rendering is implemented
* Various optimisations and bugfixes, code cleanups
* Fixed bug in flux spread param (thanks to FarDareisMai and piethein21)
* Using double precision iteration, resulting in much more accurate images (minor performance impact if any)
* Faster / lower latency realtime mode
* Resuming from state files now works correctly (was broken in 0.47 beta)
* Fixed crash when loading state files without params loaded
* Added reporting of state file dimensions during loading when mismatch detected
* Added realtime rotation (alt + left and right mouse button drag)
* Improved status text, now shows rendering time elapsed

w00t, cheers for featuring it mate
you know i'd love to somehow promote the deviantArt connection with chaotica, but i'm not sure how to do this and all my attempts to contact staff (also via friends) have failed... if you can suggest anything here i'd much appreciate it!

as always, pure awesomeness
verily, things are moving maybe when there's a proper editor, you can have some fun with that
Oh, yes. Just found out that on my workstation, intended for "world class technical support", I have Photoshop CS so I was slightly distracted. Testing `SuicideBySafetyPin's sample right now.
what you can do, then, is render out several highres layers, say 2 fractal variations and an alpha mask, and combine them in photoshop
like so: [link] (with credit to `FarDareisMai for the params!)

This is gorgeous! I love the clean linework and all of the details. o3o
I know the characters are the subjects, but I can't help but stair at the table and chair. The curve nature of the furniture fits incredibly well with Rarity's mane style, which causes the furniture to stand as well as the character. Well played.

Accent and Grouping Structures in the String Quartets of Béla Bartók
Date: May 2001
Creator: Bocanegra, Cheryl D.
Description: The music of Béla Bartók is defined in part by its unique blend of rhythmic vitality and inventiveness, and his string quartets offer a glimpse into a consistency of technique evident throughout his compositional career. Bartók's rhythmic environments are primarily metrical, but many of his rhythmic configurations are placed in such a way as to potentially override established meter. It is necessary, therefore, to institute an analytical means by which the delineation and comparison of rhythmic structures both within and without the metrical context may be accomplished. An analytical method using Timepoint Accent Structures (TAS) allows for the comparison of rhythms resulting from patterns of accent produced by pitch onset, dynamic stress, articulation or any other accentual factors. Timepoint Grouping Structures (TGS) delineate the number of timepoints present in alternating groups/blocks in a texture, thereby allowing for the recognition of patterning created by these larger groups. By applying TAS and TGS analysis, relationships of rhythmic equivalency, rotation, retrograde, complementation, augmentation, diminution, subset, superset, exchange, compression and expansion are clearly confirmed in the string quartets. In addition, symmetrical structures and arithmetic progressions are discovered. In many ways, Bartók's rhythmic organization mimics his procedures of pitch structuring.

An Analysis of Sales People's Perceptions of Performance Appraisal Criteria at a Telecommunications Corporation.
Date: December 2001
Creator: Harris, Ellen L.
Description: The purpose of this study was to identify and analyze sales people's perceptions of performance appraisal criteria in a telecommunications corporation. The study was prompted by the perceived disillusionment of the sales people with the current performance appraisal criteria. The perceptions of 67 sales people were assessed using a questionnaire developed by the researcher. One-way analysis of variance procedures (ANOVA) were used to determine if there were statistically significant differences in premise and telemarketing sales people's perceptions of performance appraisal criteria. Findings indicated that there were no statistically significant difference in premise and telemarketing sales people's perceptions of the 38 performance appraisal criteria statements. Findings did not indicate a statistically significant difference in premise and telemarketing sales people's perceptions of the performance criteria statements, the attitude or satisfaction statements, and the peripheral issue statements. Based on this study, the sales people appear to have clear perceptions of the performance appraisal criteria.

Burnout Among Student Affairs Professionals at Metropolitan Universities
Date: August 2001
Creator: Murphy, Lynda
Description: The purpose of this study was to determine the level of burnout among student affairs professionals at the 52 U.S. member institutions of the Coalition of Urban and Metropolitan Universities. Packets containing the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI), the Moos Work Environment Scale (WES), and a demographic survey were mailed to 371 senior student affairs administrators at the member institutions, with a completed response rate of 58.22%. The senior student affairs administrators surveyed included the chief student affairs officers and the professional staff who reported to them. The research design employed t-tests, analyses of variance, and Pearson's Product Moment correlations. The scores obtained from the MBI and WES subscales were compared overall and along 9 independent variablestitle of position, size of institution, appointment, salary, years in current position, years in profession, age, gender, and highest degree attained. Average levels of burnout were found on each of the MBI subscores. Contrary to earlier studies, women did not suffer from statistically significant higher levels of burnout than men, and burnout levels decreased with age and years in the profession for both sexes. Lower scores on the MBI depersonalization subscale were found in employees in mid-career and in professionals from smaller schools. Emotional exhaustion ...

Choice for All? Charter Schools and Students with Disabilities
Date: August 2001
Creator: Estes, Mary Bailey
Description: In order to assess the extent and quality of special education services in charter schools in north Texas, the researcher examined data submitted to Texa Public Education Information Management System (PEIMS), and conducted qualitative interviews with selected charter school administrators. Five cornerstones of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA): zero reject, individualized education program (IEP), appropriate assessment, free appropriate public education (FAPE), and least restrictive environment (LRE), were utilized in the assessment of quality. Levels of expertise in federal disability law and fiscal barriers were explored, as well.

A Comparative Analysis of the Effectiveness of Three Different GED Preparation Programs
Date: May 2001
Creator: Gardner, Marlene K.
Description: The purpose of this study was to identify effective instructional programs for GED tests preparation for students in a large suburban school district. Three different nonrandom, unequal naturally occurring instructional groups at three different locations were examined. One group participated in a traditional instruction program, a second group in a test/retest program, and a third group in a computer-assisted program. The demographics of the district population, the GED population, and the individual study groups were catalogued and analyzed. The demographics of the GED population were similar to the district population but different from the GED passers. Student characteristics did affect GED success. Both quantitative and qualitative data were gathered. Random students in each of the three groups were interviewed about their experiences in GED preparation using a questionnaire. Quantitative data were analyzed using frequencies, means, correlations, and a multiple regression analysis. Since the GED credential is an alternative to the high school diploma, its use as a dropout alternative is important to every school district. The study found that instructional methods had little impact on students' success in receiving the GED credential. The overall success rate of students was low in each group. The student's reading achievement score, GPA, and ...

A Comparative Analysis of Traditional Versus Block and Accelerated Block Scheduled High Schools Over an Eight-Year Period in a Large Urban School District
Date: August 2001
Creator: McCumber, Patricia Morrison
Description: This study compared traditional, A/B and accelerated block scheduling and its effects on student achievement and attendance by comparing the differences in student outcomes observed before and after the adoption of block/accelerated block schedules. The independent variable was the use of time in a block-scheduling model. The dependent variables were student outcomes measured by nine indicators based on the Academic Excellence Indicator System in Texas: student attendance, graduation rate, dropout rate, percentage of students taking advanced courses, percentage of students passing all Exit-level Texas Assessment of Academic Skills tests, percentage of students taking College Admissions Tests, mean SAT total score of those students who took the SAT, mean ACT total score of those students who took the ACT, and percentage of students who are at or above criterion on the SAT or ACT of those students taking the SAT or ACT. Data from archival files from the Texas Education Agency's Academic Excellence Indicator System for each respective year of the eight-year longitudinal study was collected. Scheduling models (traditional, alternating block and accelerated block) were investigated. The sample was drawn from the student population of a large urban school district in north central Texas, a district serving approximately 77,000 students. The ...

A Comparison of Five Robust Regression Methods with Ordinary Least Squares: Relative Efficiency, Bias and Test of the Null Hypothesis
Date: August 2001
Creator: Anderson, Cynthia, 1962-
Description: A Monte Carlo simulation was used to generate data for a comparison of five robust regression estimation methods with ordinary least squares (OLS) under 36 different outlier data configurations. Two of the robust estimators, Least Absolute Value (LAV) estimation and MM estimation, are commercially available. Three authormodified variations on MM were also included (MM1, MM2, and MM3). Design parameters that were varied include sample size (n=60 and n=180), number of independent predictor variables (2, 3 and 6), outlier density (0%, 5% and 15%) and outlier location (2x,2y s, 8x8y s, 4x,8y s and 8x,4y s). Criteria on which the regression methods were measured are relative efficiency, bias and a test of the null hypothesis. Results indicated that MM2 was the best performing robust estimator on relative efficiency. The best performing estimator on bias was MM1. The best performing regression method on the test of the null hypothesis was MM2. Overall, the MM-type robust regression methods outperformed OLS and LAV on relative efficiency, bias, and the test of the null hypothesis.

The Effect of Faculty Development on Active Learning in the College Classroom
Date: May 2001
Creator: Evans, Cindy
Description: This study examined the effect of active learning seminars and a mentoring program on the use of active learning teaching techniques by college faculty. A quasi-experimental study was conducted using convenience samples of faculty from two private Christian supported institutions. Data for the study were collected from surveys and faculty course evaluations. The study lasted one semester. Faculty volunteers from one institution served as the experimental group and faculty volunteers from the second institution were the comparison group. The experimental group attended approximately eight hours of active learning seminars and also participated in a one-semester mentoring program designed to assist faculty in application of active learning techniques. Several individuals conducted the active learning seminars. Dr. Charles Bonwell, a noted authority on active learning, conducted the first three-hour seminar. Seven faculty who had successfully used active learning in their classrooms were selected to conduct the remaining seminars. The faculty-mentoring program was supervised by the researcher and conducted by department chairs. Data were collected from three surveys and faculty course evaluations. The three surveys were the Faculty Active Learning Survey created by the researcher, the Teaching Goals Inventory created by Angelo and Cross, and the college edition of Learner-Centered Practices by Barbara ...

Factors that influence teacher turnover in Texas: Correlations with variables from the academic excellence indicator system for the year 1998-99
Date: May 2001
Creator: Burns, Bobby C.
Description: The teacher shortage problem is a national and state concern. In 1998, the Texas State Board of Education Certification reported that school districts in Texas had to hire teachers to fill over 63,000 vacancies. Teacher resignations, other than retirement, contributed to over 46,000 teachers who left the profession about 19 % of the state's total teacher workforce. A significant number of Texas teachers left the profession in the first five years. The National Commission on Teaching and America's Future (1996) called the attrition of new teachers a chronic problem for American schools. Reducing the teacher shortage in Texas must begin with reducing the teacher turnover rate. Most studies concerning teacher attrition or turnover either address salary, or working conditions. Many of the studies deal with affective and subjective data regarding teacher turnover. The studies on teacher turnover often do not address quantifiable data collected uniformly across districts. Few studies address a comprehensive set of quantitative data to determine the variables associated with teacher turnover. This study addressed teacher turnover through quantitative research of data from the Texas Academic Excellence Indicator System (AEIS) with multiple analysis to provide insights to teacher turnover conditions and trends. The population for the study included ...

The impact of poverty on comparable improvement ranking for elementary campuses in Texas.
Date: December 2001
Creator: Holland, Vicki Gay
Description: The problem was to determine how comparable is comparable improvement for campuses in Texas. An alternative strategy for determining comparable improvement was developed using 2000 comparable improvement data provided by the Texas Education Agency for 2,403 elementary campuses. Comparable improvement is a measure that shows how student performance has changed from one year to the next and then compares that growth to 40 schools that are demographically most similar to the target school. Instead of using the most dominant characteristic as in the current process, the percent of students in poverty was the initial sorting characteristic. The impact of sorting by poverty was reviewed in four areas: 1.) the impact on quartile placement, 2.) the TLI average growth for the comparison group, 3.) the award eligibility, and 4.) the changes in comparison group composition. No practical significant difference was found for research questions 1 and 3, however, a practical significant difference was found in group average TLI growth for math and in the comparison group composition. Overall, the alternative process had the greatest impact on campuses with 40-80% poverty. Three possible factors may have influenced the results. First, the middle poverty campuses had the most change in comparison group as ...

I have had the same problem and can't believe it's been weeks and I couldn't get an answer to this.
Finally figured it out!!!!
I message comes with a "subject line" as well as a "body" line. When you first start typing you start out in the "subject" line. If you touch one more line down (not the return button) you will be in the "body" then it should work.
You can just remove "subject" line in settings for iMessage'
- kicking himself for not figuring out sooner.

I also use Messages and when i got the grey box i found the problem. If the person you are sending a message to has not set up a message account on their ios device it will come up with a red exclamation mark next to their name. THerefore you are unable to send a message to them until they create a account.

Car dealerships are everywhere in Jacksonville in Onslow County, over forty of them to be exact. But a new law signed by Governor Easley on July 4th says anyone buying a new car in our state must now have a valid North Carolina drivers license or ID card. The reason the law went into effect is because the department of motor vehicles noticed people were buying cars in North Carolina, and registering them here but taking them out of state for good. Cliff Wrenchen general sales manager at Sanders Ford in Jacksonville says sixty five percent of his clientele are military, men and women that shouldn't have to hassle with this new law. Officials say one reason for the law is to keep out of state residents from cashing in on North Carolina's lower insurance rates. It turns out some people, many of them from northern states, come here to North Carolina to buy, register and insure a car. Then they take those vehicles back to their home states, where costs for repairs and accidents are more expensive. That puts a burden on North Carolina insurance, and could mean an additional expense down the line for all consumers. Previously anyone could purchase a car in our state with just a social security number and proof of insurance, and show any address.

JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska
-- Most of us, if we have not done so already, are gearing up making plans for a much-needed vacation.
We can pick up the phone and, for a nominal fee, contact our travel agents for some needed advice or we could do the planning ourselves which may take some creativity and work.
Some of us will decide to stay in the local area and savor the exquisite beauty this Alaska paradise has to offer, while others will journey to the Lower 48.
No matter where you intend to spend your break, we all know there is much more planning involved than merely figuring out where to go.
One of the most important considerations is how much time and money we can afford to spend on a vacation.
In fact, much of the vacation planning we do is, and must be, predicated upon our economic or financial situation.
But what if you and your children could go on a five-day local vacation for free? Yes, it's free. Would you take it?
Would you jump at the opportunity of a lifetime?
Here's the good news - this year our chapel team is once again offering a program called Vacation Bible School.
Well, I admit, it's not a vacation in the real sense of the word.
But I still consider it vacation since it gives you, the parent, an opportunity to take a break from your everyday routine and engage in a wholesome program for your children.
This year's "vacation" is from July 30 to Aug. 3, at Chapel One.
Just like in years past this program is offered to all school age children kindergarten through sixth grade while older kids and parents can volunteer as activities guides and monitors, mentors, musicians, facilitators, and teacher aides.
Daily activities begin at 9 a.m. and end at noon. A lunch for participants and volunteers will be served on Friday, 3 Aug., to conclude the program.
The theme for this year's program is "Sky Is the Limit: Everything Is Possible with God."
Through the words of Mark, the evangelist, our teacher-catechists - expert travel agents and tour guides - will enthusiastically guide our children to visit places like Galilee, Jerusalem, Judea, Capernaum, Tyre and Sidon.
Through lessons, music, songs, arts, crafts, interactions and activities with other children, your "vacationers" will learn the value of hope, trust, compassion, faith and love - and have a lot of fun.
Though Vacation Bible School is Christian-based, the program is open to everyone - even to those who do not subscribe to any faith tradition.
Your chapel team believes we can provide your children with an excellent atmosphere to learn other values as well, such as resiliency, strength, and how to cope with their ever-changing situation due to an extended absence of their deployed fathers or mothers.
And the value of interacting with other children where they can celebrate together their shared and common experience as military kids is, indeed, priceless.
Truly, your chapel team is invested in contributing to the molding of your children to be Arctic Tough, Family Strong, and Mission Ready.
If you are ready to embark on a vacation' of a lifetime, welcome aboard.
Register your children and volunteer as vacation guides.
For more information, call 552-6480 or 552-6493.

dataTable1 = new DataTable();
radGridView1.DataSource = dataTable1;
DataRow dataRow1 = dataTable1.NewRow();
dataRow1["Id"] = 1;
dataRow1["Name"] = "Bob";
DataRow dataRow2 = dataTable1.NewRow();
dataRow2["Id"] = 2;
dataRow2["Name"] = "Alice";
dataTable1.Rows.InsertAt(dataRow1, 0);
dataTable1.Rows.InsertAt(dataRow2, 0);
At this point, radGridView1 freezes, and if I try to click on it, the whole form crashes with an exception at this point:
Application.Run(new Form2());
There seems to be an inconsitency between radGridView1 and its data source, dataTable1: dataTable1 contains two rows correctly, however, radGridView1 shows only the last inserted row ( {2, "Alice"} ), and crashes when attempting any further interaction on the GUI.
I'd be glad to find out if there is a solution.

It was a somber day as the news of Coretta Scott King's death spread across the nation and here at home.
"It's a loss to us here not only in Tallahassee but an international loss because when we see her, we see him," said a civil rights activist.
Coretta Scott King visited Tallahassee in 1994 to speak at Bethel AME Church. That same year she also spoke before Florida lawmakers
Here and across the world King's widow dedicated her life helping to spread his dream.
Laura Mae Dixie says she was a perfect role model.
"None of us perfect, but you know when you look at somebody and say, oh, they're kinda perfect, she's one of those. I'd put her in that category."
Davis says she was always at King's side.
"Dr. King, her husband, said he was a drum major for justice, but she was the majorette, so it just says the kind of person she was. She was very supportive."
Just two weeks ago the couple's youngest daughter, Bernice king, visited FSU's campus. Mrs. King was absent though, following a serious stroke and heart attack in August.
Although gone now, those who knew her say she'll never be forgotten.
"It's a great loss because you know she got out there and went just like her husband," said Dixie.
Davis says Mrs. King will always remain in her heart.
"There's so many things that we will forget but we won't forget her."
Flags at all state buildings in Georgia remain at half-staff. Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue has offered to allow King's body to Lie in State.

Tiny Markers Animates Furious Frank's 'Lament'
Justin Witte of Tiny Markers created the animation for "Lament," a stand-out track from Furious Frank's most recent album, The Map & the Territory from Southern Love Records.
The video, like the song, tells the story of a regretful but short-tempered god who is continually creating and destroying the world.
"This was a great project because Furious Frank's song, 'Lament,' was so great and provided so much rich imagery to work with," Witte commented. "I think the part of this video that I enjoyed working on the most was imagining what god might look like or where she might live, but coming up with the newspaper headlines was also fun."
All the images in the "Lament "video where hand drawn and scanned into Adobe Photoshop, then animated using Adobe After Effects.
Most of Witte's animation work is simple with a retro hand-drawn style. In addition to the video for Furious Frank, Tiny Markers also recently created web animations for National Public Radio and Raygun Books.

Women's Pictures - Amy Heckerling's Look Who's Talking
For some as of yet unexplained reason, 1980s American movies experienced a baby boom. Movies about family are always popular, but from about 1983 to 1995, the box office went gaga for babies. Mr. Mom, 3 Men and a Baby, Raising Arizona, and even Junior showed that for a brief period of time, there was nothing funnier or more heartwarming in Hollywood than people who didn't want kids suddenly becoming parents. Amy Heckerling jumped onto this baby buggy bandwagon with her freshman screenwriting effort, Look Who's Talking.
Talking babies are now almost passe as a conceit, thanks to Real Baby Geniuses, Rugrats, and those creepy e*trade Superbowl ads. But in 1989, the idea was new enough for Roger Ebert to point it out in his 3 star review of the film. Still, minus the talking baby (voiced by Bruce Willis and only audible to the audience), the rest of Look Who's Talking is formulaic in the classic romcom way - there's a Meet Cute, then Opposites Attract, an Unlikely Romance starts, which ends in a Romantic Reveal and the requisite Happy Ending, all of which is predictable from the minute Kirstie Alley's water breaks in the back of John Travolta's taxi.
None of this is necessarily a bad thing. Amy Heckerling's talents as a director are of the kind that we don't usually reward with golden statues or the word "auteur." [More after the jump]

Salama Alaikum sisters, I am having a baby girl inshallah in November..DH and I still haven't decided on a name...I was thinking maybe Jaiyana!!! It means "strength" in arabic...Does anyone know how to pronounce it..Is it like JAY- ANA...help please!!! If it is sounds to american...But I was thinking u pronouce more that I in Jay...NO IDEA PLEASE HELP ARABIC SPEAKERS OR ANY ONE FAMILIAR WITH THIS NAME!!!!!!!!!!
How do I pronounce the name Jaiyana??? PLEASE!!
Comments (8)
Hey salamualikum! Congrats on your little princess...we're having one too! I think that's a beautiful name...it does sound a little "American" but me and Dh are looking for names that are easy to pronounce since so much of my family isn't Muslim. I would guess it's pronounced "Jay-anna" too. I think it's a very pretty name.

I asked my native Arabic speaker of a husband and he says he's never heard of it. We looked it up online and found two different sites that says it means 'strength' but he's trained in both classical and colloquial Arabic and he still doesn't know where it came from.
Maybe it's very old, very tribal? Sorry, we're no help. It does sound pretty as Jay-anna though.
We're also trying to find names that work in Arabic and English. Good luck, inshaAllah : )
It's not easy being a mother. If it were easy, fathers would do it. - From The Golden Girls
Maya - 3.25.09
I have never heard of this name either. Did you get it off of a baby name site? Sometimes those sites mix persian, urdu and other language names from the Muslim world in with Arabic names. When I get to work tomorrow, I'll try to look it up in Hans Wehr for you and see what I get.
I do know the names Layann (soft) Bayaan (clarity) and Rayanne (the door of Jennah for those who fast). Forwarning though, if your dh is from North Africa Layaan/Layann is out because it sounds very similar to the word that means tired in their dialect. Bayaan is out in Morocco too because its the name of a really famous newspaper. There is a sister who used to post here whose daughter's name was Kayaan/Kayon I forget what it meant but her dh was from KSA.
Salama Alaikum sisters, thanks for the replies. DH and I STILL haven't thought of a name...We are due in the 3rd week of November..All the names he likes I don't like, and the names I like he doesn'tlike..Yes I asked everybody about that name no one heard of it...Any suggestions or anything...What about Inara??
Don't worry...me and Dh are FAR from agreeing on a name and we are due not too far after you...Jan. 17th Inshallah. Inara is pretty...I think it means something to do with light. Here's my and Dh's list of names we like (I wrote Dh in parenthesis next to the ones that he likes but I'm not too crazy about...but you might like them so I included them!) (Oh and an asterisk means I really like the name):
-Amina (Pronounced a-MEE-na) (Dh) -Jenna*
-Amena (pronounced A-min-uh) -Hanna
-Reem/Rima* -Raihana
-Zainab -Sana
-Sumaia -Sirin (si-REEN)*
-Salma* -Hala
-Aisha (Dh) -Nur*
-Hadile (Dh) -Maha (Dh)

I mentioned Noor to my dh -- cause we're due end of Oct -- although we already have her name picked out -- I'm already thinking about #4. Anyway.. he said in Egypt that Nur is a boy's name. Who knew! Mounir (my ds #1) is also a christian name in Egypt and a girl's name in Iran -- so you can't totally win!
I've never heard of Inara -- but it sounds pretty!

Another way to paint is simply by zooming your lens, with or without a tripod. Peterson recommends framing the composition at the widest angle of any given zoom and then moving toward the longer end in a fluid smooth motion. At a St. Patrick's Day parade, as each group of police officers or firefighters walked by, he panned from right to left at 1/2 sec. while zooming his 70-200mm lens. This caused some cool shapes and color patterns to form.
For longer exposures of 4, 8 or 16 sec., try taking multiple exposures. While photographing Seattle's Space Needle at night, Peterson set his exposure to ƒ/16 for 8 sec., fired the shutter and slowly began turning the zoom from 120mm to 200mm over those 8 seconds. The effect is that the Needle and surrounding buildings look as though they have exploded. For a second attempt, he took three exposures at three different focal lengths over 8 seconds. He fired the shutter, waited two seconds while the exposure was recording the scene and quickly zoomed to the next focal length. The result looks cleaner than the first version.
Attach The Camera To Anything That MovesUsing a clamp to attach the camera to different objects opens up new points of view from which to shoot. To get a view of a street from the perspective of a broom, Peterson attached a Manfrotto Magic Arm to the broom handle with the camera and a fisheye lens. He pre-focused the lens and started firing the shutter at 1/4 sec. With the broom handle in his left hand, he made gentle sweeps across the street.
In another shot, Peterson attached the camera to a shopping cart handle and photographed his friend's daughter as she was being pushed through the grocery store, tripping the shutter with a cable release. The result makes you feel like you're whizzing through the store with her.
Low-Light PhotographyFor a simple city skyline, Peterson advises setting the aperture to ƒ/8, raising the camera to the sky and adjusting shutter speed until a correct exposure is indicated. If after you've set the exposure the meter says the scene is underexposed, ignore it and shoot. Although the meter perceives them as dark buildings, they're not as dark as the meter reading. If you're shooting a scene with motion, set the aperture to at least ƒ/11, maybe ƒ/16, which increases the exposure time to 8 to 16 sec. The longer the exposure, the more motion will be recorded in the image.
