Music Education and Curriculum
Music Matters has attempted to develop a philosophy that explains the nature and significance of music education. In the process, this book has also attempted to outline several basic principles of music teaching and learning.
The next main question is this: How can music educators organize music programs in ways that are congruent with the nature and values of MUSIC as a diverse human practice?
Implicit in this praxial philosophy is a distinctive concept of curriculum for music teaching and learning. Chapters 10 and 11 make this concept explicit. To anticipate, the central theme of these next two chapters is that all music education programs (general music programs and otherwise) ought to be organized and taught as reflective musical practicums. 1 Of course, the precise details of each music curriculum-as-practicum will differ according to local circumstances. Nevertheless, this philosophy holds that achieving the values and aims of music education depends on designing, maintaining, and operating music teaching-learning situations in relation to several connected principles encapsulated by the term reflective musical practicum.
The second half of this chapter explains why the practicum concept of curriculum is congruent with the nature and significance of MUSIC and, more broadly, with the thrust of contemporary research in curriculum development and developmental psychology. The discussion then proceeds to detail the nature of the reflective musical practicum.
To prepare the way for this discussion, in the first half of this chapter I scrutinize several common beliefs about the nature of curriculum and curriculum making. Since MUSIC is distinctly different from scholastic subjects, it would be imprudent to assume from the outset that the curriculum-making procedures commonly used in science, history, or mathematics education are automatically appropriate for music education. Indeed, as I argue, many conventional ideas about curriculum making are problematic for (if not inimical to) teaching and learning in general and music education in particular. Thus, and for the sake of MUSIC

AbstractThe Helios Remote Sensing Systems team will develop a miniature, low power, 360-degree field of view Moving Target Indicator (MTI) radar sensor that will alert the soldier to the whereabouts of targets out to at least 25 meters with a goal of 50 meters while operating in harsh environments. The sensor will be mounted, embedded, and integrated within the Advanced Combat Helmet and associated sensor suites. Special attention has been paid to system weight, power consumption, and health of the soldier for this application. The total weight of the system is projected to be less than 2 ½ pounds with less than one pound mounted on the helmet. Several options will be investigated as a means to cue the soldier to the whereabouts of the targets. Special waveforms are considered for tag interrogation to enable precise location of blue forces, as well as target discrimination. Detection of small arms fire is included as part of the trade study. The compact, low cost, low-power radar will employ a novel 360 degree field of view helmet mounted antenna, novel signal, clutter and motion compensation processing algorithms and state-of-the-art chip-based implementations to optimize performance and low power operation.

The registration process it not very good
Campus Housing:
Very expensive for a tiny room you have to share with disgusting bathrooms, I could probably find my own studio for much cheaper
Overall Experience:
Though I'm drowning in debt and probably will never resurface, NYU has given me the opportunity for a rebirth, of sorts. Just the last four months have been the happiest of my life, thanks in part to the faculty and students who have given me the courage to truly pursue what I love. If one is willing to be dedicated and hardworking, life is bliss.
NYU has an extremely diverse community, which almost magically unifies seamlessly. We may have our differences, but I believe it is what we appreciate most about one another.
Campus Housing:
I've been living in the London campus, where the prices are half that of New York and still have a great apartment quality. A kitchen with cooking utensils, and more than enough space.
There are many computer labs available, on campus and within the dorms. There has never been an instance where one did not have access to a computer. Printing can take some time, but as long as one plans their time efficiently, there isn't an issue. Never went over printing limit.
As long as you are respectful, there are no issues. Authorities are lax concerning alcohol, but it is hard to regulate in a large city.
Off-Campus Housing:
It's New York City. It's a struggle to survive, but in the end, it's worth it.
Campus Housing:
After freshman year there is no sense of community in the dorms.
Very good. If a teacher is having a problem with the technology in class, a tech person usually comes in fast.
Off-Campus Dining:
There are so many places to choose from and they are all over the place. Not hard to get to at all.
I feel like we have too many required courses limiting our ability to take classes that interest us. I also feel that the teachers I've had so far could have done a better job really teaching and immersing us into the industry. We are also required to do 600 hours of internship which is a lot when you are also taking all of their required classes at the same time.
There is a school where you can choose your own major, so if that doesn't add variety I don't know what does.
I go to the gym a lot and it's great.
Guys & Girls:
Guys and girls are both very intelligent and hard working students. However, there are some who know how to work hard and have fun, while there are some that simply know how to work hard. But I would say that there is a fair balance between the two. A majority of them dress quite nicely, whether it be preppy or simple. NYU has multiple schools and most close relationships occur within the school since that is where you are likely to spend a majority of your time. At times it can be hard to have much of a social life, but at least people do get together to hang out. It is on the weekends where most of the partying is bound to take place, except for finals week.
Health & Safety:
I have not had to deal with this much. But I did get a free flu shot.
There are people from all over the world, it's great. However, it is a very liberal school and I do not feel comfortable expressing more conservative ideas.
One thing that bothers me is that in some dorms the security guards monitoring who comes in and out aren't always paying attention.
Local Area:
It's located right near Soho, which is a major shopping area. There are plenty of places to dine at, from fancy sit-down restaurants, to casual fast food places. Furthermore, it is such a diverse neighborhood with people from many different places. That alone adds to the various events that take place on and off of campus. I haven't been around for the summer yet, but this year will be the first time and I'm so excited to be apart of it. The campus already surrounds a well known park which I know will come alive once the weather warms up. It's really difficult to get bored around here because there is just too much to do.
To be real, I didn't receive anything. I got some loans but nobody wants loans. Also from talking to other students who did get aid, it seems NYU acknowledged that they needed more aid but that they couldn't give it to them. It is a very expensive school.
Campus Food:
There are a lot of different options, but they are kind of all over the place so you end up not even trying everything because it's not worth it.
There is a shuttle bus but it doesn't go to all of the dorms that are far from campus.
Overall Experience:
I am in the hospitality major and I've noticed that many of my classmates with the same major are not very nice or friendly which doesn't make sense, hello, hospitality!
Campus Quality:
There are lots of activities that students can choose to participate in, and there are two athletic facilities with lots of equipment and space.
Campus Quality:
Most of the buildings have places to sit besides the classrooms and there are computers and printers in some buildings as well. The campus is situated around Washington Square Park which is a nice place to be during the not cold months.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
NYU offers students a taste of the hustle and bustle they will most likely encounter in the real world once they graduate. It is an overpopulated institution, so you have to be ready to fight to gain certain academic opportunities, but cultivating such a habit may serve as indirect training for new graduates when they have to go about securing jobs in their respective fields. Life at NYU demands a certain kind of disposition; thus, it is not for everyone. For students who love NYC and the challenge and experience it offers, it is an exciting and ever-changing community. For those who desire a community-rich college experience, NYU is lacking in that area. However, you can make an amazing experience out of what the school does offer. Whatever your choice, get ready for a mix of demanding academics and wild experiences in the city. Finding a balance between the two is key at this big-city school.
Many students claim that the best part about attending NYU is living in New York City, while other students complain about the school's large tuition. Most often, students are dissatisfied with the lack of a campus or school spirit, and many students believe that the institution is run too much like a business, with the school using millions of dollars to make NYU a global institution instead of supporting its current students. Otherwise, most students appreciate the various benefits of living in the city, such as diverse and exciting nightlife options, a broad range of cuisines, and prestigious and diverse internship opportunities.

After reading the May 27 story "Poised for pageant: Miss Washington USA prepared to compete for national title in Las Vegas," I found myself highly disappointed and, in fact, quite embarrassed for the state of Washington.
Not only are pageants an archaic and completely outdated form of competition, but our contestant, Angelina Kayyalaynen, seems to exemplify stereotypical ideas of pageant girls. When asked what she was most excited for, she replied with, "I'm ready to show how fit I am."
Washington's young women need a role model who not only has an accurate view of the world, but also realizes that physical beauty amounts to nothing when compared with intelligence.
Kayyalaynen has chosen Washington's abstinence-only program AWARE as her "platform" so to speak, and, laughably, wants to tackle the issue of "sexting."
However ineffective AWARE's efforts may be, maybe she should confront the real issue they try to prevent: teen pregnancy.
In comparison to "sexting" and pornography, teen pregnancy continues to permeate society and cause actual problems that not only affect families and teens, but taxpayers as well.

The Kingdom of Thailand, formerly known
as Siam and located in Southeast Asia, has a rich history
whose modern monarchy goes back to 1782, when Bangkok
was established as the kingdom's capital city. Thailand has been a constitutional monarchy since 1932,
when the nation's military forces first overthrew the
king's absolute power and established a parliamentary
government. Their king, King
Bhumibol Adulyadej, assumed the throne in June 1946. He is the longest-serving current head of state and
is the world's longest-reigning monarch in Thai history, making him an important figure in Thailand.
Even with the 20th-century changes to a more democratic government and a stable monarch, however, the country has suffered with military coups and clashing political parties.
Over the last five years, for example, two groups have taken turns swaying the political tide there: the "red-shirts" and the "yellow-shirts". During recent months, the red-shirts have been protesting the current government (supported by the "yellow-shirts"), saying it illegal and demanding new elections. The red-shirts have been gaining force and literally camping out in parts of Bangkok. Conflicts between the red-shirts and the government have grown more and more violent. On May 16, 2010, the red-shirts hoped for a ceasefire and peace talks with the government moderated by the United Nations. The Thai government rejected their proposal and called for the red-shirts to surrender, ordering women and children to leave the area before the army storms the camp on Monday. Some hope that the king will intervene and help resolve the conflict.

65 million people. Nearly all Thais practice Buddhism,
tying them to the ancient histories of India, China,
and other neighboring cultures. The combination of four major
monarchy, military, religion, and geography—has shaped
this nation into what it is today and what it becomes
in the future. This week's lesson will take you on a
journey to Thailand, to explore this unique place and
its people.
Aside from the political strife in Thailand, this land shines with beauty. With its lush with tropical forests, mountains, and plains, you
will soon discover why Thailand has been dubbed the Jewel
of the Orient.
At this PBS site, first read about The
History of the Jewel. Here, you will learn
about how this ancient culture included metallurgy,
organized agriculture, and the adoption of Buddhism.
You will also get an overview on how its government
moved from an absolute monarchy to the democratic,
constitutional monarchy it is today.
Next, discover the jewel's Bounty
of Life. What characteristics make Thailand
home to so many different species? Under the Basics
of Buddhism, find out about the Four Noble
Truths, karma, and how Buddhists believe in the cycle
of rebirth. How do these teachings compare with
those of other religions?

As a "Casual Visitor", your
first task is to check out the Food.
Beginning with A Taste of Thailand's Background Information,
you will learn about the unique qualities of Thai food, which
is becoming increasingly popular in the United States.
What kinds of ingredients does Thai food use to achieve
artful blends of the "five flavors"? To hear
what the Thai language sounds like, listen to a few
phrases of Restaurant
Talk (QuickTime player required).
(Note that unless you are able to
download the Thai language fonts, then you will see odd
combinations of numbers and letters where the characters
of their language would display.)
For more about Thai social customs and
language, review the Quick Thai for Tourists introduction. Scroll down to the text
and read about the differences in use of language between
women and men. You will also discover what some of their
other acceptable customs. Click a category of Common
Expressions, such as Greetings, to listen to some common phrases in the Thai
To see what some of their language characters
look like and to hear more of how these are spoken, check
out the Reading section.
Go to the Consonants, Vowels, and other pages, and you
will see examples of those listed. Plus, you can practice
drawing these yourself on the computer screen.
Also, listen to and learn about some Thai Music.
(Be aware that the audio clips in this section are provided in a
mix of Windows Media Player and RealPlayer to download for playing.) See the
Music section, where you can look at and read about some of the different traditional instruments, for example. Songs
for Life showcases an era of political
music, including Caravan
Lastly, take a photo journey into Thai
life by browsing through the site's Slideshows.
Some of captions are in Thai, but the photos alone will
give you a good glimpse into their culture. Here, you
can learn more about their Holidays,
Farming, Thai
Puppets, and Buddhist
Discuss with one or more classmates how modern Thai culture reflects ancient traditions in language, belief systems, art, and other aspects of every day life. In what ways has non-Thai cultures influenced modern life in Thailand? What aspects of Thai culture would you identify as universal views or ways of living?
Get a detailed map of Southeast Asia, and then browse issues of the e-edition for news about Thailand
or its nearest neighbors. If the news article includes a specific location,
then find it on the map. Select one article, or series of related articles,
that are particularly interesting to you. Write an analysis about how
the news topic either affects or reflects the Thai people and their culture. You may wish to focus on one specific aspect you learned about during this lesson.

Oklahoma State football: Kye Staley turns the mood, shows knee injuries aren't world ending
STILLWATER — Clouds hung heavy and gray above Boone Pickens Stadium.
It was fittingly gloomy.
Wes Lunt sat on the Oklahoma State sideline, his left knee wrapped and his season in question. On the very first possession Saturday, the Cowboy quarterback took a helmet to the leg, and the sickening way his knee bent made stomachs turn and hearts drop.
There was a pall over the stadium and the Cowboy Nation.
Then, Kye Staley caught a short pass, turned up the sideline and made everyone feel better.
On a day that OSU's 65-24 victory against Louisiana-Lafayette became a footnote to Lunt's injury, Staley provided an emotional jolt. He broke tackles. He eluded defenders. He rumbled 52 yards for a touchdown.
"He got the party started today," Cowboy tailback Joe Randle said. "We were so happy when he scored."
How could you not be?
The guy suffered a knee injury so severe that trainers who thought they'd seen everything swore they'd never seen anything as bad.
Cowboys everywhere know the story, how Staley rehabbed his knee, returned as a linebacker, thought he had lost too much of his speed, decided to quit, then realized he still had football in him. Now, he's a fullback who occasionally gets his hands on the ball.
Anytime he runs the ball much less scores, everyone who bleeds orange feels a little bit better.
But on the day that Lunt suffered an injury that looked as ugly as anything you'll see on a football field, Staley also provided a dose of reality.
Things don't always go as we think.
When the Cowboys announced last spring that Lunt had beat out J.W. Walsh, we all figured the next four years were laid out. Lunt would have some growing pains as an inexperienced true freshman. He'd grow into a seasoned veteran. He'd become a great Cowboy quarterback.
And Walsh, well, we wondered if he might eventually transfer. Surely, a guy who was never going to play wasn't going to sit and wait forever to take some meaningful snaps.
Now, Walsh is going to have to go out and beat Texas in two weeks.
Everything we thought we had figured out has changed before the end of September. A road that looked so certain took a turn with one ill-placed helmet.
"It changes," Cowboy offensive coordinator Todd Monken said. "It changed a few years ago for Landry Jones."
No doubt about that. Jones was a redshirt freshman expecting to spend the season learning and waiting and backing up Sam Bradford. Then, the Heisman Trophy winner busted his shoulder and Jones was the man at Oklahoma.
"You try to tell guys (to be ready), but you don't ever know," Monken said. "Every other position sees it that way. Every other position would say, 'I'm a backup, and I'm going to get to play, and I'm going to prepare.' But at quarterback, it's almost like, 'I'm never going to play.'"
"You just don't ever know."
Staley didn't.
"In a single play," he said, "your life can change."
During preseason camp as a redshirt freshman, Staley was impressing everyone. He was climbing the depth chart. He was pushing for playing time. He was going to be another great Cowboy running back.
Then during a scrimmage a few weeks before the start of the season, he shredded his knee so badly that doctors feared he might never walk again.
The massive scar left by the surgery is evidence that this wasn't a normal knee injury.
Staley hasn't had the career we once thought he would. He never became that feature tailback. He never had that glorious career.
Saturday was his second career touchdown.
He blocks for guys having the careers he hoped to have.
"When he scores, it's kind of like an offensive lineman scoring," Randle said. "He always says, 'I didn't come here to play fullback. I can run the ball.'"
Maybe it should come as no surprise that Staley made sure to point out the fact that Tracy Moore and Charlie Moore had blocks that helped him get into the end zone.
"It felt different because normally I'm the one leading them into the end zone," Staley said.
He raised an eyebrow.
"It was a good feeling."
Particularly a day the Cowboys needed some sunshine.

Jimmy continued to examine the stone. Rosalyn seemed really excited about having that stone. And Smokey was staring at Jimmy with his eyes wide open. What was he going to do? Was he gonna give the stone to Rosalyn just like that? Or was he gonna give it to her for a "small fee"? The Weezing looked confused, having known the rebellious-looking boy since he was just a little kid wandering the streets of Saffrom City. The Pokémon watched as Jimmy looked from the stone to Rosalyn, form Rosalyn to Kaida and Belle, and from them back to Rosalyn and then back at the stone. Then he closed his eyes.
'Humph. You can have it.' he said, 'I don't need it.'
As he watched Jimmy extending his right hand, which was holding the shiny stone to Rosalyn, Smokey got dizzy and passed out. Kaida and Jimmy were confused at that. But after some seconds, Jimmy realised why.
Oh, no...

Thursday, March 17, 2011;
The March 15 Economy & Business article "FDIC too slow to sue officers and directors at failed banks, critics say," by Ben Hallman of the Center for Public Integrity, criticized the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.'s pace of filing lawsuits arising from bank failures. The piece left out the broader context of the financial regulatory structure and the purpose of these lawsuits.
Mr. Hallman's "critics" seem to suggest that wasting time and money filing lawsuits to arbitrarily meet a quota is more important than a thorough examination of the likelihood of success. On this point, while the piece noted that the statute of limitations on these lawsuits is three years, it omitted the fact that there were only 25 bank failures in 2008. Indeed, failures peaked just last year, at 157. The FDIC completes most investigations within 18 months of a bank failure, and the products of many of those investigations are now coming to the fore. By the end of March 2011, the FDIC will have authorized lawsuits against 158 defendants, with potential recoveries of $3.57 billion. More to the point, these are based on actual investigation and threshold standards, as opposed to living up to an unrelated number for the S&L crisis.
The article's transition into criticism of the FDIC's supervisory approach was similarly cursory. The action of revoking a financial charter is performed by an institution's federal or state chartering authority, not the FDIC. The article confusingly intermingled the FDIC's role as receiver for all institutions and our supervisory responsibilities.

Can Discover Financial (DFS) Keep Earnings Streak Alive? - Analyst Blog
We expect the direct banking and payment services company
Discover Financial Services Inc.
) to beat expectations when it reports third quarter 2013 results
on Oct 21.
Why a Likely Positive Surprise?
Our proven model shows that Discover Financial is likely to beat earnings because it has the right combination of two key ingredients:
Positive Zacks ESP: Earnings Surprise Prediction or Earnings ESP, which represents the difference between the Most Accurate estimate and the Zacks Consensus Estimate, is at 1.68%. This is a meaningful and leading indicator of a likely positive earnings surprise for shares.
Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) : Note that stocks with Zacks Ranks of #1, #2 and #3 have a significantly higher chance of beating earnings. The sell rated stocks (#4 and #5) should never be considered going into an earnings announcement.
The combination of Discover Financial's Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) and 1.68% ESP makes us very confident in looking for a positive earnings beat on Oct 21.
What is Driving the Better Than Expected Earnings?
Curbing interest rates on student loans, closing the acquisition of Home Loan Center and business expansions through alliances with EMVCo and Paydiant are expected to aid Discover Financial's earnings in the upcoming quarter. Also the launch of Home Equity Loans to bridge the gap between its personal and home loans is expected to drive better earnings in the upcoming quarter.
Discover Financial posted earnings surprise in the last two quarter with an average beat of 11.1% aided by growth in card sales volume. A lower share count due to share repurchase activities also aided the upside.
Other Stocks to Consider
Discover Financial is not the only company looking up this earnings season. We also see likely earnings beats coming from these 3 stocks in the industry:
World Acceptance Corp . ( WRLD ), Earnings ESP of +2.19% and Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy)
Capital One Financial Corp. ( COF ), Earnings ESP of +5.71% and Zacks Rank #2 (Buy)
American Express Company ( AXP ), Earnings ESP of +0.82% and Zacks Rank #2 (Buy)

I recently read an article about Bert and Ernie from Sesame Street being gay and the huge uproar over it on whether or not they really were. In my opinion, Bert and Ernie were definitely not gay. They've been wearing the same outfits for 40 years and gay people would never do that. "Bert and Ernie are best friends," the Sesame Workshop, said in a Facebook message. "They were created to teach preschoolers that people can be good friends with those who are very different from themselves."
While researching this topic I did come across a few cartoons for all the people out there that must have a gay cartoon character. Here are my top 5.
5. Prince Albert from He-man…correction, I mean Prince Adam. He-man was gay too. How could you be so damn close to She-ra, Teela, and the Sorceress and not try to hit that? Actully She-ra is his twin sister so maybe not but at least he could have tried to put the moves on the other two, but instead always chasing after Skeletor instead. Maybe Skeletor has a 'big bone' down south? Also did you know He-man also has a friend named FISTO??? (See Photo In Gallery)
4. Homer J. Simpson. We know that Smithers is gay, Patty (Marge's Sister) and a number of other characters on The Simpsons are openly homosexual. Homer is just deep in the closet. If you watch the series carefully, you'll see that Homer kisses a variety of men. He's surprised and confused at first but as the show progresses he secretly enjoys it and eventually becomes the initiator of the man on man kisses. I think because he's married with children, he will just have to keep his homosexual tendencies within his fantasies. I think just as he is picky with his women, he would be picky with his men and maybe if the right one came along…
3. Peppermint Patty. Some might say this one is pretty obvious…but I think Peppermint Patty actually had a crush on Charlie Brown and as they grew up, Charlie actually ends up marrying the cute little blonde girl crushing Patty's heart. She then reached out to long time friend and now lesbian lover Marci. Marci has always loved her Peppermint Patty.
2. The Batman. Bruce Wayne may be a billionaire playboy, but when he puts on that cape and cowel, he is definitely gay. He takes in the boy wonder (no pun intended) to nurture him into his boy toy. Watch some of the old T.V. shows from the 60's with Adam West. Though Bruce plays the ladies man like a pro, as Batman, he pushes away any and all advancements from the ladies. Batman and Robin definitely 'love' each other in more ways than one. Holy Erections Batman!
1. G.I. HELLOOOOO~there… AKA Gung-Ho. He was really popular back in the 80's cartoon, yet did not make it into the recent movies. I hope it wasn't because he's gay. It's so obvious now as an adult that the writers snuck in a gay G.I. to represent the rainbow nation. Gung- Ho was pure awesomeness. I wonder who would play him in the movies if they decided to add him to the next sequel? Personally, I hope if they do add him or any other gay character, they don't turn it into an after-school special about tolerance. Let's just put him in the movies because he was badass, gay or not.

Q&A: Derek Fisher on Rejoining the Thunder
Here's what Derek Fisher had to say to reporters following his first practice today.
Q: What brought you back?
A: After leaving Dallas and having the opportunity to take a few weeks to get my knee healed up, and then spend some additional time with my family over the last couple of months, as I started to think about my career and talk to my wife, talk to my family, the consensus as a group for us is that I deserved this opportunity to come back and be a part of something special here in terms of this community, this team, this organization. I'm not planning on retiring at the end of the season, but if this is my last season I deserve this opportunity to be here with this group. That's really what brought me back.
Q: When you left Dallas, did you think this was a possibility or did you think it was over?
A: I was unsure. I knew that I still wanted to play the game. I knew I still had the love, the work ethic, the passion. The injury was a setback. The biggest struggle for me even after 16 years was playing in a different city, being away from my family. Those are things that I struggled with. But as I was leaving Dallas, I understood the risk, that that could possibly be my last game and my last opportunity. But as I stated earlier, as I healed up over the few weeks after I left and started training again, I was not necessarily planning on having the opportunity to play again but as I stated it was a group decision kind of as a family that this opportunity was worth coming back for and worth me having an opportunity to finish the way I would like to finish.
Q: Have you had a chance to talk to Scotty yet and talk in depth about your role on this team? Do you envision it to be similar to last year as the backup point guard? What do you have in mind?
A: No. I've come here without any sense of entitlement or expectation in terms of what Scotty or the team is supposed to do. This team, just like when I showed up last year, is obviously already been able to put together a great season, a great record. It's not for me to come in here and try to be something that I'm not. So whatever role or whatever opportunities Scotty and the team see for me in terms of being helpful, then that's what I'm willing to play. I think Reggie Jackson has played really solid basketball and deserves the opportunity to continue to play. And so Scotty will make those decisions. Like I said, I'm just thankful to have this opportunity to be on a team, to be back. Scotty's a great coach. He'll make the decisions that he feels is best for the team. I'll just make sure that I'm prepared no matter what happens.
Q: Why not stay here the whole time? Was that made available to you, just re-sign at the end of last year?
A: No. It was something that we talked about. But I think Sam Presti, being not just the great general manager that he is, but I think the great person that he is, felt a responsibility to be more focused on Eric (Maynor's) return and Reggie Jackson's development. And that was more of a priority. That was something we talked about in my final exit meeting last year. And so I think we both realized that it would probably be tough for me to come back in the right setting at the end of last season. But it for sure would have been something that I was willing to do. So it's obviously quite surreal still at this point to have this opportunity to come back now.
Q: What else do you notice about this team, maybe the way it's grown or changed?
A: Well, if you think about from the last game this team played in the NBA Finals to some of the uncertainty, I guess, as training camp began with whether James (Harden) is going to stay or not. And then to lose the caliber of player that James Harden was, is and will become, a lot of teams would not be able to withstand that, even with an addition like Kevin Martin, who's been great. But I think for such a young team, you just have to continue to marvel at and be amazed at the level of maturity and their ability to be mentally focused on being successful day in and day out. So I still see that in this team. But I also see a willingness and a desire to get better. And so for a team to make it to the NBA Finals and still see the desire to get better, knowing that there's still some unfinished business left on the table, that's refreshing and I'm humble to be a part of it.
Q: Where are you from a conditioning standpoint, and how ready are you to play?
A: I'm in great physical condition. My knee was healed up in a few weeks, and essentially since the first of the year I've been training hard and pushing hard. Obviously playing basketball, NBA basketball in particular, you can't practice that. There isn't anything that can prepare you for playing in the game. So even with being in great shape, whatever minutes that I do get, whether it's tomorrow, or this weekend or whenever they come, it'll still take time to get extremely comfortable out there on the floor, doing a lot of the things I'm capable of doing. But as I told Scotty and Sam and other people that I've spoken to, my tank is much more full showing up this year than it was last year. And so I plan on being more impactful and more effective than I was for the team last year.
Q: How long was this process? There were rumblings for a few days that you were thinking about it. Was there something said, or a way you felt, that said 'OK, I'm in."
A: Well no. I think that with the relationships that were developed during the season last year, I've stayed in touch with some of these guys and Sam and Troy Weaver. I think after Eric was traded, which I think was something that they felt like was best for Eric and best for the team long-term future wise, that's really when the opportunity presented itself. Without that trade, I don't think I'd be here and we'd be talking about this. But I think that was kind of the catalyst to then being able to have some conversations over the last several days to get us to this point. Like I said, I'm thankful. I'm appreciative. And so I'm showing up here as or more focused and committed to doing everything that I can possibly do to help this team, help this city win a championship. That's as simple as it gets.
Q: I'm assuming your jersey number has some significance?
A: I wore No. 2 for most of my career. And as I changed teams and No. 2 not being available, I had to find reasons why I should wear other numbers. Last year, obviously 37 was a reminder to myself and some other folks that at 37 you can still play. I didn't want to go to 38 this year even though I'm 38. So six, first and foremost, was a smaller, more of a guard number as opposed to some of the other numbers I probably would have had to choose from. But for sure it kind of symbolizes and serves as motivation for myself that winning at the end of the day as a team is what this is all about. It symbolizes something for me in terms of No. 6, but it also symbolizes for me the reason why I'm here to be a part of this team and that's to help get (championship) No. 1.
Q: What would winning your sixth championship mean to you?
A: Having the opportunity to win another championship would obviously mean a lot. But as I just stated, winning as a team is what brings me the most joy and the most satisfaction. And so when I think about this group of players, this organization, how fast things have grown and developed to be a championship contending team, to win another one for me personally would be extremely gratifying because of this, not because of me. The number means something to me and for me. But it still symbolizes the connection between what I hope to be able to do to help this team win a championship.
Q: Did the guys tread lightly around you last year, and was it different when you showed up this year? Were they joking with you? How did they respond in that regard?
A: I think I probably treaded more lightly than they did last year. I spoke to you guys a lot last year about not walking in here assuming these guys are supposed to respect me. I think respect is earned. And I wanted this group of guys to get a feel for who I am and what I do before I expected them to then be able to somewhat follow my example as a leader in some ways. So it was more so me treading lightly. They had jokes and things to laugh about right away. I mean, they were 22, 23 years old. Everything's a joke. So this year coming in, I don't feel as if I have to tread lightly. I think this group understands who I am, understands who they are. I think it's extremely clear what our goal is, what we're here to accomplish, and often times that's what sets the table. Once we all have a common purpose and a common goal, then it's just about us each doing our jobs and so that's what I'm here to do.

Although the incidence of cancer increases with age, older patients are under-represented in cancer treatment trials, resulting in limited data availability in this patient population. Here we present results from pre-defined subgroup analyses conducted by age group (<65 vs ≥65 years) from a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase III trial in patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer. Patients who had not received previous chemotherapy or biological therapy for HER2-positive locally recurrent, unresectable or metastatic breast cancer were randomly assigned to treatment with placebo, trastuzumab, and docetaxel or with pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and docetaxel. Primary endpoint was independently assessed progression-free survival. We performed pre-specified subgroup analyses of progression-free survival according to age. The study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT00567190. 808 patients were enrolled. Of those, 127 patients were 65 years of age or older (placebo arm: 67, pertuzumab arm: 60). Patients in both age groups experienced progression-free survival benefit with treatment in the pertuzumab arm (<65 years: HR: 0.65; 95 % CI 0.53–0.80; ≥65 years: HR: 0.52; 95 % CI 0.31–0.86). Diarrhoea, fatigue, asthenia, decreased appetite, vomiting, and dysgeusia were reported more frequently in patients 65 years of age or older compared with younger patients. Neutropenia and febrile neutropenia were reported less frequently in the older age group. The efficacy and safety data reported in CLEOPATRA suggest that the combined use of pertuzumab, trastuzumab, and docetaxel should not be limited by patient age.

Letter to the Editor: Refuting McFeely
The Democrats must be getting desperate if they are calling on a Moorhead attack jock to dump on Rep. Mary Franson (guest editorial published in the Oct. 18 Focus). Mike McFeely's attack is petty, vicious and untrue. McFeely misrepresents the GOP legislation as tax increases when...

Letter to the Editor: Ingebrigsten doesn't care about the people
Senator Bill Ingebrigtsen doesn't care about people! He favors Voter ID, yet there is no research in Minnesota to say that we have anywhere near a voter fraud issue. This amendment discriminates against the elderly and poor. Former Republican Governor Arne Carlson has indicated that...

Letter to the Editor: 'Do unto others'
The golden rule taught by Jesus in "the sermon on the mount," is a major tenet of the Christian faith: "Do unto others what you would like them to do to you." There's been a lot of debate recently concerning homosexual marriages. Both sides would contend that they're following the...

Letter to the Editor: Franson is a fearless leader
During a long career in the U.S. Marine Corps, I met many and varied individuals. Some were good team players, some were leaders, some were slackers, and some were people whose main form of entertainment was to carp and gripe about the achievers and doers while lolling in their own...

Letter to the Editor: Cunniff doesn't understand the Tea Party

Update on MwanaishaMwanaisha is grateful to both Yehu and Kiva for their support. She used a previous loan to greatly improve the living standards of her family, including better health care and higher quality education. Her goal is to open a wholesale food company, but for now she sells various food items from a kiosk. Her previous loan allowed her to increase her monthly income by over 40 percent. She is applying for a loan for KSH 55,000 to buy more food items to sell, including sugar, and wheat flour and maize flour.
Previous Loan DetailsMwanaisha is a married woman with six children, all of whom graduated from school. She owns a house that has electricity and piped water. Her greatest monthly expense is food for the family. Mwanaisha has operated a boda boda (motorcycle transport) business for the past two years. Her local ne... More from Mwanaisha's previous loan »
Additional Information
About Yehu Microfinance TrustThis loan is administered by Yehu Microfinance Trust, which was founded in 1998 as a project of CHOICE Humanitarian Kenya. In July 2007, Yehu became a separate entity from CHOICE and was registered as a trust. Since then, Yehu has expanded to cover over half of Kenya's 13 coastal districts.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

I don't quite understand what you're missing. It's not markup... its markup on markup...
It's a 700 dollar price tag on a 350 dollar retail product that wholesales much less than that.
A: you've got a money tree in your yard and don't give a single **** about how much you pay for things
B: you bought it before you realized you could drive 30 minutes outside the city and save yourself 250-300 bucks and you're trying to make yourself feel okay about it
Can we ask bike related questions now?
Let's talk about how much my bike weighs.
1. Will clips and straps mar up my new running shoes, or should I use an older pair.
2. Have you ever had to mess with a one bolt hold everything in place and hope it doesn't move as you tighten it Look seatpost?
3. If so, were you succussful?
How about this, lets give you both boxing gloves the last person standing is right..
I'm getting a weird noise from my bike when I'm riding it, I just noticed it in the past 2 months, but just said it was probably the chain and needed lubing, but it hasnt stopped yet. I've narrowed it down to the rear of the bike, closer to the hub, but it could be the chain. Im not sure how to explain the noise other than it sounds like if you were scratching those mesh pencil cups you can buy at staples.
Sorry for being really vague about it, I just have no idea how to explain it.

News Release: Associated Press News
HAPEVILLE, Ga. (AP) -- Police in suburban Atlanta say a man accused of burying his mother's body behind his house has been charged with concealing a death and abandoning a body.
Authorities say 62-year-old Dennis Dark, of Hapeville, buried his mother in a shallow grave behind his house south of Atlanta.
Hapeville Police Detective Justin McGinnis told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution the man's mother died between 18 and 24 months ago. Officials are investigating the woman's cause of death. McGinnis says Dark was initially contacted by the Social Security Administration and was being investigated for possible fraud.
The Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Fulton County Medical Examiner's office is helping to investigate the case.
It's unclear if Dark has an attorney and a number listed for him has been disconnected.
