Middle School
Our students not only literally move up (from the first to second floor of our Lower and Middle School campus) but also figuratively with a more challenging academic curriculum. Comprising grades 6-8, we want students to feel loved and empowered in a Christ-centered environment where they can become explorers, leaders and scholars. Middle schoolers at Minnehaha Academy thrive, not just survive, during this critical developmental period because our teachers embrace all the unique personalities and create an environment where there's virtually no bullying. That sense of connection, safety and community allows every student to reach for their very best.
Our Christian distinction is real, not a facade. We integrate faith into every relationship and demonstrate that faith by loving one another and showing each other grace and mercy. Learn more
The Middle School counselor and faculty plant the seeds in our eighth graders, guiding them through a process to explore potential careers with an assessment, inventory and parent-led seminar. The goal is to stir areas of interest and plumb possible careers, not commit to one. Learn more
We emphasize personal responsibility, as we help determine the right blend of student independence and parental and staff support. Our goal is to not only prepare the whole teen – intellectually, emotionally, physically, socially and spiritually – for high school but also to make sound decisions after graduation. Learn more
Looking for a great place to hang out or do homework? The Yellow Lounge, which was once painted yellow, is the after-school program for students in grades 6-8. The competitively priced program runs daily from 3:15 – 6 p.m. Learn more
Our Middle School curriculum is continuously adjusted to push students to their full potential and beyond. Wherever a student lands on the continuum, our teachers identify and support that individual's needs in their academic growth. Learn more
Offerings include Latin, Chinese, French and Spanish. But for students entering seventh and eight grade for the 2015-16 school year, an advanced level elective will be offered as an immersion-style course within the school day. Learn more
Choices abound for students with varied interests, from math to jazz, drama to skiing, and student council to yearbook. Learn more
In Middle School, 87% of students participate on an athletic team. Minnehaha welcomes athletes at every ability level, from novice to champion. All students who attend practices regularly and give their best efforts will participate in athletic contests. Learn more
Our teachers embrace all the unique personalities in our Middle School and delicately balance opportunities to show students grace or challenge them. Students regularly go to teachers with issues, based on respect and trust. Learn more
We believe it's important that our students serve and lead, and we ensure they get ample opportunities to do both. One notable event is Serve It! Day, in which students devote a day each fall to service learning projects. Learn more
In our Middle School science courses, we are committed to providing excellent curriculum and instruction to help students develop problem-solving skills through hands-on, inquiry investigations. Learn more

At what point does talent supersede attitude problems? That's the question some in the Jets front office might be asking themselves this morning after reports began to leak out that star cornerback Darrelle Revis, who has done this all before.
If this seems awfully familiar, that's because Revis held out of camp just two seasons ago in dispute of wanting a better contract. He was eventually rewarded with a four-year, $46 million deal that included $32.5 million in guaranteed money and made him among the highest-paid cornerbacks in the game. So what's the problem, you might ask?
The problem is that in just two short years, other players at his position have gotten pay increases. So, naturally, the entitled Revis feels that a contract he agreed to just two years ago, is an insult. The problem with Revis' deal is that it was seriously front-loaded, and his salary will drop to $7.5 million this year and $6 million in 2013. Well below the amounts for the market value of arguably the best cornerback in the NFL.
Now, this is all still hearsay, as Revis himself has said that all issues with his contract would be handled later and that he is focusing on the season. Add to it, he has appeared at all of the voluntary organized team activities so far. However, he did the same in 2010 before skipping all of training camp.
Revis did get a little testy with members of the pesky New York media asking if another holdout was on the horizon, saying "Here we go with the contract questions. I'm here, and I'll be playing." Rex Ryan wasn't biting on the media distractions either, adding "I'm not going to get into the contract stuff. You can talk to Mike Tannenbaum and Revis about that. My thing is, I'm excited about this upcoming season and having Revis there, there's no doubt."
To think that you can swat away the resilient New York media with some vanilla answers like that is amusing, however. This team is going to be hit by a media circus all season with the addition of Tim Tebow. Add to that the new contract Mark Sanchez just got, the fallout from the bad ending Santonio Holmes had with the team last year and he's still on the roster. If Revis decides to hold out again, things will go from bad to apocalyptic in camp.
It's hard to get down on a guy who is quite possibly the best in the league at his position for wanting to be paid like it. I'm just one of those guys who, and blame the accountant in me for being this way, that if you sign a contract that you're happy with; live up to it. If your performance drops, you're still going to want to get paid to the money you agreed to, right? So if you outperform your contract, why is it such a different story? Especially only two years in. Blame your agent for letting the team hit you with such a front-loaded deal, not the organization who paid you insane amounts of cash.
However, when the league has procedures in place that allow a team to cut you, regardless of your contract, at the first moment of a decline in play, I can understand why guys are looking to get while the getting is good. So it's easy to see both sides of the argument here.
Who knows, perhaps he'll be in training camp on day one and this will all have been for not. But if I was a betting man, I'd put my money on the holdout horse.

What I Learned From a Day Unplugged
I don't consider myself addicted to my phone, but recently I've noticed some bad habits — like going for it as soon as I wake up to check social media, checking my email while I'm in car at a stoplight (I know, I know!), or checking my phone for one particular reason and then going down a rabbit trail that keeps me on my phone for way too long. For the purpose of resetting bad habits, I decided to take a day offline and unplug. Here's what I learned:

Mike Caffey
Jan. 5, 2013
In a game highlighted by monster 49er dunks and points in the paint, the Long Beach State men's basketball team got back in the win column with a hard-fought victory over UC Santa Barbara, defeating the Gauchos 77-70 on Saturday evening.
LBSU (6-8, 2-1 Big West) notched their fourth straight victory over UCSB (3rd straight in Santa Barbara), while the Gauchos fell to 5-9 (1-2 Big West). It was an all-around team performance for the 49ers as they shot 54.2% from the field, their best field goal percentage since last season's game against Creighton (2/18/12, L, 81-79). In the first half, LBSU shot 53.3% and then followed that up by shooting 55.2% in the second.
"I think we showed a lot of character tonight and finally played as a team," said Head Coach Dan Monson. "Our focus and preparation were a lot better heading into tonight's game. We were focused defensively and played with more purpose when we were guarding their shooters. Even though they made nine threes, we were able to stay in the game and remain focused. We really wanted to focus on guarding their big man Alan Williams, and I think we did a great job frustrating him tonight.
"This team has a long way to go, but I'm really pleased with their effort tonight."
The 49ers absolutely dominated the paint, outscoring UCSB 52-16, including 10 dunks. For only the second time this season, LBSU was able to win the rebound battle as they grabbed 32 boards compared to UCSB's 31.
Four 49ers scored in double-digits as Mike Caffey led the way with 19. He also tallied nine defensive rebounds and five assists, while committing zero turnovers. James Ennis added 18 points, extending his double-digit scoring streak to 18 games. Tony Freeland added 15, equaling his career-best at LBSU, while Dan Jennings chipped in 13.
Up 41-31 as the second-half begun, an alley-oop dunk from Caffey to Ennis with 18:51 to play pushed the 49er lead to 45-31 early in the second half, but UCSB would go on a 14-0 run to tie the game at 45-45 with just under 15 remaining. A three by Ennis would break LBSU's scoring drought with 14:20 left (48-45).
Long Beach would continue to lead by single digits for over five minutes, a gap that UCSB would close to within one (55-54) with nine minutes to play.
Another alley-oop dunk, this time from King to Freeland, pushed LBSU's lead to 57-54 as Long Beach would go on an 8-3 run to extend their lead to 65-57 with five to play. The Gauchos would close to 65-61, but another dunk (Jennings) put LBSU up 67-61 with over three minutes left. UCSB made it a three point game with 1:30 remaining, but another Jennings dunk would put LBSU up 73-68. Jennings then fouled out of the game, putting UCSB's leading scorer Alan Williams at the charity strip where he could only make 1-of-2. A blocked shot by Ennis culminated in a dunk by Freeland, icing the win for the 49ers.
In the first half, the 49ers were up 8-5 early, but UCSB would go on a 13-2 run to lead 18-10 with 12:19 to play. The 49ers got back in the game with some strong defensive plays, while going on a 10-2 to tie the game at 20 all with 7:36 remaining. The Beach continued their scoring run to lead 25-20 after a monster one-handed dunk by Ennis with 6:05 to play. Then, a steal by Caffey pushed the lead to 27-20 with 4:43 left.
Back-to-back threes by UCSB would bring them within 27-26 at the final media timeout (3:48). LBSU would go on a 9-0 run punctuated by a three by Ennis to lead 36-26 with a minute to play. UCSB would score five more points in the half, but the Beach would go in to the break up by 10 after a hail mary three by Caffey at the buzzer was good (41-31).
Long Beach State shot 53% in the first half, while out-rebounding the Gauchos 18-14. They tallied three blocks and four steals in the first 20 minutes.
Up next, the 49er men return home to the Pyramid for two games as they host Cal State Northridge on Wednesday, Jan 9 at 7:05 pm and Hawai'i on Saturday, Jan. 12 at 4:05 pm.

Island hopping is the activity of choice in Mamanuca. With more islands and beaches than tourists, so it's so easy to find a beautiful and secluded spot where you can enjoy your tropical holiday. Snorkel or scuba in the beautiful reef around Beachcomber Island, and keep an eye out for the baby black tip reef sharks in the area - totally harmless, they are spectacular to watch underwater. On Mana Island you can explore the crystal clear waters in a kayak, or just lie and relax under the shade of the beautiful palm trees. Scuba divers will love one of the best dive sites in Fiji, which is known as 'The Supermarket'. Visit a traditional Fijian village on Yanuya, or get a taste for seclusion on Monuriki, which is an uninhabited island where the movie Cast Away was filmed. Malolo Island offers the best hiking in the region, where you can enjoy scenic walks to the island's summit and take in the magnificent views across the other Mamanuca Islands. South Sea Island even has a semi-submersible coral reef viewer, which is great for anyone wanting to gaze at the local marine life without getting their feet wet! Feasting on the fantastic local cuisine is a must. It's a mix of Fijian and Indian flavours thanks to the large number of immigrants who came to Fiji in the late 1800s. While you're here, you should definitely try Kokoda. It's a Fijian delicacy where fresh fish is marinated in lemon juice and coconut milk, and is simply delicious. The Mamanuca Islands really are amazing and you won't find a more perfect location for your next beach holiday. With so many different islands to visit, you'll find your only concern is that your holiday is too short! Grab a cheap flight to Fiji and find some great Mamanuca Islands accommodation. Your next trip to Fiji is really going to be special!Hide

Great key fob
This key fob exactly met my expectations because the website is so impressive. I appreciated being able to view the various leather and stitching options at the click of a button. And the width and length dimensions listed are exact. As if that weren't enough, when it arrived it was in a cloth bag inside of a box. Nice touch!

Technology vs. Fraud vs. Technology
Foster, Beverly, The RMA Journal
Although fraud has been around since humankind's first opportunity to commit it, many banks are just now getting their feet wet in employing technology to fight it. This, of course, is because developments from the laser printer to the Internet have created a tidal wave of opportunity to commit fraud and to commit it worldwide. Transactional fraud is the area in which most banks have made their earliest and strongest efforts. Fraud prevention specialists at Citizens Bank of Rhode Island, J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., and Wachovia Bank share with readers their efforts at stanching the flow of fraud.
There's little choice. Bankers must continue to charge ahead in their quest to engage customers in new products and services that will generate fees and help replace lost deposits. There's excitement in introducing them to something a little more sophisticated, a little friendlier, and a little quicker than their competitor has and that technology has made possible.
But each new tech-based sweetheart brings along a mean little sidekick. Accompanying each new service and product is a little powder keg of new risks from fraud. Technology, unfortunately, is an equal-opportunity tool; as the good guys get better at catching fraudsters, the fraudsters get better at their craft.
Meantime, a recent entrant on the risk hit list has captured the attention of banker and regulator alike--operational risk. And a growing component of operational risk is fraud. It's no surprise, then, that banks are beginning to devote more time and resources to fighting fraud.
Methods of dealing with fraud are, by necessity, increasingly high-tech. What are banks up to in their mouse-to-mouse battle with fraudsters?
No Shortcuts, Be Tough, Stay Connected
Rich Nelson is SVP and director of Risk for the Consumer Finance Division of Citizens Bank, a subsidiary of $30.2 billion Citizens Financial Group, Inc., headquartered in Providence, Rhode Island. Five risk managers report to him, from product lines that include the small business group, the merchant acquiring group, the VISA business group, the indirect auto lending group, and a direct lending group that handles business from branches. The risk managers' responsibilities include fraud management and upgrading technologies. The bank has a centralized fraud manager as well a centralized proprietry database of known frauds within its operational processing systems.
At this point, the bank relies primarily on the fraud detection tools employed by credit bureaus, which raise a red flag when an address or other information supplied by a credit applicant doesn't jibe with database information. In such an instance, the bank follows an established procedure:
1. Contact the customer. Even if everything appears to be all right, the bank may use a reverse directory and also check the customer's place of employment.
2. Additional verifications. "Under normal circumstances, we may waive 'employment' or 'income' verification," says Nelson. Upon an alert, these additional verifications kick in. They bottom line, says Nelson, is "don't take shortcuts"--attention to detail is very important. "Stay connected with local and international fraud organizations," he advises. "When we have a problem, we contact that group; in one instance, within a week we were able to stop and arrest someone who was doing fraudulent loans at our branches." He also encourages cooperation. Citizens Bank works with three or four other institutions.
Charles J. Bock Jr., SVP and director of the Fraud Prevention and Investigation Group at J.P. Morgan Chase & Co., knows that an extremely tough stance on punishing internal fraudsters is essential. The bank is also partnering with colleagues in law enforcement, and Bock meets regularly with all federal and state law enforcement agencies. J.P. Morgan Chase invites them to participate in fraud-prevention conferences. …

He's already teased secrets with us before, but that was before the return of The Flash. With us already knowing the true identity of Tom Cavanagh's Harrison Wells, you wouldn't think there'd be that many secrets left to tell, but based off Rick Cosnett's social media posts, it seems that the Thawnes might have a few more secrets together, as he continues to post images of himself and Tom Cavanagh together, claiming "Nothing but secrets". The question is, what could this mean for the show? Is he just teasing and messing with everyone, or is there more that we don't know between Eddie and Eobard?

Boy, 3, dies in auto-pedestrian accident in northwest Oklahoma City parking lot
A 3-year-old boy died Wednesday after he was struck by a vehicle in a northwest Oklahoma City parking lot.
Police responded to the accident about 1 p.m. A mother and her two sons were crossing the parking lot of a McDonald's, Northwest Expressway and Council Road, when the 3-year-old broke away from his family and was hit by a sport utility vehicle.
The mother and her 4-year-old boy also were struck, suffered non-life threatening injuries and were taken to an area hospital, police said.
The driver of the SUV, who has yet to be identified, was distracted by another vehicle at the time of the accident.
She was not arrested, police Capt. Dexter Nelson said.
The investigation into the crash is ongoing, police said.

text: THE course of the present administration in foreign affairs has now and then combined officiously offensive action toward foreign powers with tame submission to wrong-doing by foreign powers. As a nation we have refused to do our duty to others and yet we have at times tamely submitted to wrong at the hands of others. This has been notably true of our conduct in Mexico; and we have come perilously near such conduct in the case of Japan. It is also true of our activities as regards the European war. We failed to act in accordance with our obligations as a signatory power to the Hague treaties. In addition to the capital crime committed against Belgium we have seen outrage after outrage perpetrated in violation of the Hague conventions, and yet the administration has never ventured so much as a protest. It has even at times, and with wavering and vacillation, adopted policies unjust to one or the other of the two sets of combatants. But it has immediately abandoned these policies when the combatants in violent and

Sametime 8.5.1 System Requirements
Rob Ingram 1100009UH2 firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  8.5.1 sametime 1,592 Visits
The new IBM Lotus Sametime 8.5.1 release is GA today. Here are the system requirements.
Notabale additions are Mac and Linux desktop clients, Windows 7 client support, support for Notes and Domino 8.5.1 and 8.5.2 (when it is delivered) and a plan to add support for zLinux servers for IM and Meetings features within approx 60 days. We have also updated the mobile clients to support Blackberry 5.0 OS and Windows mobile 6.5.
Sametime Advanced for 8.5.1
Rob Ingram 1100009UH2 firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  advanced sametime 1,615 Visits
We have just released the latest Lotus Sametime Advanced client plug ins that work with the Smatime 8.5.1 client. This works with the Sametime Advanced 8.0.1 server including latest hotfixes (note there is no new Sametime Advanced 8.5.1 server release). Detailed info is available in this technote
The updated client plug ins are available on Fix Central at this location
Windows: LSADV-22.214.171.124-Windows-AMAN-87LTPW
Linux/Mac: LSADV-18.104.22.168-Linux-AMAN-87LTPW
Another good reason to upgrade to Sametime 8.5.1
Jacques Pavlenyi 1000002W2A email@example.com Tags:  maintenance 8.5.1 upgrade 7 7.5 sametime renewal 2 Comments 2,811 Visits
As if the greatly improved administrative experience, user experience and overall business value from IBM Lotus Sametime 8.5.1 weren't enough (hey, I had a lot of coffee this morning), you might want to also know that IBM has announced that as of September 30, 2011 (over a year from now), IBM will no longer be providing support for Sametime 7 and Sametime 7.5. This should give you, our esteemed clients, plenty of time to upgrade. And remember, if you're on Software Maintenance (and most of you already are), there is no charge to upgrade*: begin planning your upgrade now by starting with Upgrade Central or Planning for migration from an earlier release in the Sametime Information Center.
(*terms and conditions apply, see Announcement Letter for details. I had to say that or IBM Legal would get mad at me).

What's in a Name?
Marlon Machado 100000PEST email@example.com Tags:  sametime 1 Comment 1,868 Visits
This week has been all about UC product names. Should they be long? Should they be short? Do they mean anything to end users? Should UC products be named to appeal to IT, to end users, to CFOs, to grandmothers?
I think names matter and I think they should mean something to end users. UC is personal; it's what we use to interact with people we rarely get to see in person and it has become the preferred medium through which we stay in touch with other people. Given that no one is allowed to get on a plane anymore--not that many of us even want to--our textual, aural and visual impression of each other is what sustains our relationships with the people we work with every day and, for those who get to endure the road warrior lifestyle, it's the way we reaffirm our bonds with family and friends when we're away. So, names should matter because, increasingly, our UC interfaces are all we got to remind us that we're, after all, social animals.
That brings me to our name: Sametime.
I decided earlier this week to do quick analysis on our name and this is what I concluded:
So, what's in a name? A lot, as you can see.
Watchit: free monitoring tool for Sametime
Jacques Pavlenyi 1000002W2A firstname.lastname@example.com Tags:  administration management sametime tool it #ucoms uc 2 Comments 6,406 Visits
While we strive to create a unified user experience for our Sametime users, on the back-end there are a lot of moving parts required to make a unified communications deployment running smoothly. To make it easier for Sametime administrators and developers to monitor what's going on and take pro-active steps to keep everything running at its best, Jim Dewan, a Lotus Services Fulfillment Specialist, developed a great free tool called Watchit (you can download the tool and a full article describing it from IBM developerWorks Lotus library here).
This article describes (and provides) a simple lightweight proactive tool to assist administrators in better understanding the Lotus Sametime user experience to reduce outages, respond to issues more quickly, and improve the customer experience. In addition to monitoring capabilities, this tool can assist in debug collection and take the burden off users for problem recreates and data collection. By combining network validation with Lotus Sametime IM, user awareness, user login, and username look-up validation, never before has such a complete picture of the user experience been available. By reducing outages, calls to the Help Desk, and anticipating problems, you can save money and improve user satisfaction with your Sametime deployments.
Since the article was first published, we've made some new additions to it, the result of stress tests with some of our own clients' major deployments. Additional improvements include:

Hello Sametime Blog Community! My name is Lisa Harris. As of the 1st of this month, I am the Offering Manager for the core Sametime portfolio (Entry, Standard & Advanced). The rest of our team remains the same: SUT Offering Manager Kathleen Cooke, Product managers Rob Ingram and David Marshak, and Industry Solutions lead, Marlon Machado. John Del Pizzo, continues at the helm, as Director of the entire UCC portfolio and strategy.
I've been with IBM for eleven years, starting in our Services division.

My core role in our SW business was Pricing and Investment Specialist of our Lotus Social Software Business, Portal Solutions and Rational Enterprise and Modernization Tools.
I bring a very deep passion and fervor for Collaboration solutions, including a diversified background that touches on all the elements of a complete IBM solution.
It is with great excitement, passion and enthusiasm that I happily take over the reigns of Offering Manager and continue our Unified Communication & Collaboration vision with this great team.

There's plenty of room in this growing market, but I couldn't help myself; I just had to point out in a comment that what may be touted as new is already successfully in market with IBM and IBM Business Partners:

Good win! Didn't care much for Dwight in the first place. Like Magic said, the Lakers should never beg Dwight to stay in the first place...they are the God damn Lakers. IMHO, I think Dwight is a good player but I just don't see him as a franchise player with the likes of Kobe, Magic, Bird, etc. He just doesn't quite have the stomach or balls to be a true franchise player.
Honestly, I just don't know what the future holds for the Lakers but that was what I said after Magic and his crew was gone and we had nothing except the Sedale Threatt and Cedric Ceballos years. I just hope Jim Buss doesn't pull a John York move and 10 yrs of hell before fans see the light again.
