Opportunity for 7 year olds!
Opportunity for 7 year olds!
posted at 3/24/2010 10:01 PM EDTThe Harvard Graduate School of Education is working with Scholastic on improving some of their online educational games. We are currently looking for male children 7 years of age (plus or minus one week) to give important feedback on parts of Scholastic websites.
Children play a few educational games on the Internet and then answer questions about their opinions of the games. Feedback sessions take approximately 1 to 1.5 hours and can occur at the Harvard Graduate School of Education campus, your home, or a mutually agreed upon location with internet access. Participants' responses are kept strictly anonymous.
Feedback sessions can be scheduled anytime through this Sunday, March 28. Please consider assisting Harvard and Scholastic improve educational web offerings while providing your child the opportunity to play educational games!
If you have any questions or are interested in participating, please contact Christina Smiraglia at email@example.com for more detailed information. Thank you!
Re: Opportunity for 7 year olds!
posted at 3/25/2010 10:33 AM EDTWithin a week of their birthdays? Can a month at that age really skew your data on internet game skills? Seems a little too restrictive from a statistical point of view...you need a statistically significant number of participants, after all.
The fact that kids mature at very different rates would negate the need for such a small window around their 7th birthday. Someone 7.5 years old might be less scholastically mature than someone a week before their 7th birthday, for instance, so +/- a week just doesn't make sense to be statistically signficant for your study. Just trying to help you get participants. Consult a Harvard statistician if you don't get enough kids to participate.
Re: Opportunity for 7 year olds!
posted at 3/25/2010 10:44 AM EDTI read it the same way as you, but to give them the benefit of the doubt, they might mean that they are looking for boys between the ages of 6 yrs, 51 wks old through 8 yrs, 1 wk old.
Re: Opportunity for 7 year olds!
posted at 3/25/2010 11:36 AM EDTI hope so, but even so, it's good for them to know that their wording alone or the stats themselves might preclude them from getting enough participants. It wasn't meant as a slam; I have a math degree, and I like to use it once in awhile - it was expensive!

Maybe the purpose of the evaluation is to measure the variation in aptitude for a particular age. As you stated, there is a lot of variation in children's ability at that age but what is that variation? One way to measure this would have a collection of a population perform tasks and measure the success. Ideally, we want all the children to be of the same age but I agree with you, this would limit the data collected. Wouldn't statistics show us how accurate our answer is with the data collected?
Re: Opportunity for 7 year olds!
posted at 3/25/2010 12:56 PM EDTIf that's the purpose, yes, you'd need that strict 2 week window, but the way the study is described it doesn't seem to be that way to me.

According to T.S. Eliot, April is the cruelest month. With all this weird weather making it hard for me to get outside and work in my garden, I am tempted to agree with the esteemed poet.
April is also National Poetry Month, however, so that makes the month pretty special in my book. Maybe as long as I am stuck indoors anyway, I should look to poets to help me make it though this forced exile. Perhaps poetry can help me weather this weather.
The April rains have been especially intense this year.
Anne Sexton provides us with a dark, violent image of rain in "The Fury of Rainstorms" as she writes, "The rain drums down like red ants/each bouncing off my window/…and they cry out as they hit." While Longfellow's rain isn't quite as brutal, he shows it to be a depressing affair: "The day is cold and dark and dreary/It rains and the wind is never weary."
For a more humorous and upbeat take on rain, I turn to Shel Silverstein: "I open my eyes/And looked up at the rain/And it dripped in my head/And flowed into my brain/And all that I hear as I lie in my bed/Is the slishity-slosh of the rain in my head."
We have also had some very windy days this season. Many poets write about wind as an almost mysterious natural force that is extremely powerful and yet invisible. Christina Rossetti writes: "Who has seen the wind?/Neither you nor I/But when the trees bow down their heads/The wind is passing by." Robert Louis Stevenson says the same thing in this way: "I saw the different things you did/But always you yourself you hid/I felt you push I heard you call/I could not see yourself at all."
Another appropriate weather poem for this early spring season would be "Fog" by Carl Sandberg. You probably heard it in school: "The fog comes on little cat feet/It sits looking/over harbor and city/on silent haunches/and then moves on." One of the things I like about the poem is how it reminds me of the stillness, the muffled sound that happens during a fog.
Like a guest that lingers too long and won't put on his coat and walk out the door, winter seems to be hanging around way past its welcome. Those specifically winter characters Snow, Ice and Sleet are still elbowing their way into April. Alan Shapiro wrote a poem called "Sleet" which describes his father driving their old Buick in bad weather: "Our father held the wheel with just two fingers/even though the car skidded and fishtailed/and the chains clanged raggedly over ice and asphalt."
As I consider our recent weather, Katherine Mansfield captures in two short, direct lines my feelings and maybe yours, too: "Snow and sleet and sleet and snow/Will the winter never go?"
I know that this crazy April weather can't last forever (Can it?) and that the time will come when warmer temperatures and calmer weather will prevail. Emily Dickinson said hope is a thing with feathers and I see evidence of that as I catch a glimpse of bluebirds just back home or a yellow daffodil pushing through slowly returning green. Perhaps I should end with Ms. Dickinson's thoughts of spring:
"A little madness in the spring/Is wholesome even for the king/But God be with the clown/Who ponders this tremendous scene/—This whole Experiment of Green—/As if it were his own!"

I've had a web site at this URL since 1997, and until 2012 it was lame. I hope it has become not-lame. Some highlights are:

Q: What's INL.org? I'm looking for something else.
I get mail all the time from people looking for someone other than me. Usually it's one of the following:
- Idaho National Laboratory (INL.gov)
- International Iberian Nanotechnology Library (INL.INT)

Taking care of aging parents requires some know-how. Think about it…When you're expecting a child, there are countless classes, books, and resources to turn to that can help you prepare. But when the tables turn and we find ourselves caring instead for our parents, it can be much more difficult to learn the ropes. We want to help you learn how to effectively support your aging parents and this Aging Well Series is designed to do just that. It's free, the workshops rotate throughout the county, and they are all delivered by senior living experts.
Brain Health: Can Alzheimer's be Prevented? 2 p.m. Friday, September 11Standley Lake

While dementia cannot be prevented entirely, there are things you can do to reduce risk and possibly slow the progression of the disease.
Getting to the Right Place: An Overview of Senior Living Solutions6 p.m. Monday, September 14Golden
Aging is a time of adaptation and change; planning for the future can help ensure your needs, or the needs of a loved one, are met. Continuing to thrive as you age means learning how to maintain your independence for as long as possible. Thinking about your future can be a stressful topic for both you and your family. However, the earlier you assess your needs and think about how those needs may change over time, the more control you'll have over future living arrangements.
Avoiding Falls2 p.m. Friday, September 18Standley Lake
Each year in the United States, one in three people over the age of 65 has a fall. In the age group over 80, the number increases to one in two. For an older adult, the consequences of falling can range from minor injury to devastating trauma. The best way to minimize the impact of falls is to prevent them altogether. Learn how you can minimize your risk of falling.

Author Mary Stobie will visit with Wheat Ridge Library's Thursday Morning Book Group on Thursday, August 20, 9 a.m. She'll be discussing her book, You Fall Off, You Get Back On. The event is open to all.
Stobie is a Rocky Mountain writer and terms her book a "patchwork memoir." This fun-filled book is part Erma Bombeck and part Annie Oakley as Stobie recounts her experiences as a young rodeo champion and Hollywood ingénue.
As a starlet she had surprising encounters with Hollywood A-listers like Warren Beatty, George C. Scott, and Clint Eastwood before she returned to family life on the Colorado range and settled into the writing.
Join us for this entertaining discussion and you'll discover that Mary Stobie is anything but "settled." Even in suburbia, life continues to be an adventure (or misadventure) for Stobie who finds every escapade a great excuse for a joke or life lesson.
You Fall Off, You Get Back On is a reading treat for anyone who appreciates the Rocky Mountains, enjoys an honest and loving life story well-told, and loves a good laugh.

Time's up! The clock has stopped on Summer Reading 2015. Over the past three months nearly 30,000 people have been reading and logging their time to help us reach our original goal of one million minutes. We met that goal quickly and then watched the minutes grow throughout the summer to over 18 million minutes.
We hope the program helped keep your (or your kids' and grandkids') brain engaged and reading. We hope you had a chance to attend a library event or find a new favorite author. Maybe you even won a prize!
But most of all, we wanted you to have fun reading.
In the coming weeks we'll be posting a Summer Reading evaluation. Please spend a few minutes sharing your thoughts and opinions on the program and how we can improve upon it for 2016.

It is back to school to time for the Jefferson County students. Before long you'll find yourself knee-deep in questions and your kitchen table covered in homework projects.
I thought it might be helpful to share some of the resources we have to help your students succeed in school. Whether they are in elementary school or starting college, we have online homework help, access to free research sites and more.
Check it out and happy studying!
Yes, it's hard to believe that Summer Reading is coming to an end this Friday. We are so grateful to the 30,000 people who registered and logged their time to help us reach – and exceed – our goal!
When Summer Reading ends, logging minutes will shut down until next year, so be sure to log all of your minutes by Friday, August 14.

Unfortunately, it seems like not all people in this world share the same passion for dogs that I do. Hundreds upon thousands of dogs are abandoned each year and end up either dead or in shelters, and many more suffer at the hands of neglectful or abusive owners. Fortunately, we have organizations such as the SPCA around to speak out and help these animals. However, it's recently come to my attention that not all shelters treat certain breeds of dogs the same.
Leafing through the latest edition of The New Yorker I was greeted with the Dolce & Gabbana ad at the right, which features actor/professional narcissist Matthew McConaughey with his shirt unbuttoned down to his navel, waxed chest exposed for all to ogle. I have one question for the marketing peeps at D&G: Is this image supposed to entice me to buy your cologne, dubbed The One, which is described as a "fragrance for men"?
For the first time on CBS's reality show Undercover Boss, an elected official will
become publicly embarrassed after realizing no one recognizes him go incognito to see first-hand what kind of work his employees do on a day-to-day basis. Cincinnati's Mayor Mark Mallory will be donning some D.L. Hughley dreadlocks, face pelts and a fat suit to get down and dirty with some regular folks.
As their press release so eloquently puts it, "2008's 'Best New Bar in Cincinnati' slowly died three weeks ago, and no one seemed to notice. From being consistently full of thirsty bohemian patrons and hosting national up-and-coming bands (Vampire Weekend played a week before their debut on SNL) to a potted-plant-ridden empty mess—The Gypsy Hut's rise and fall was about as meteoric as MC Hammer's. … Luckily, two devoted Northsiders have been working feverishly to reopen and restore the bar to its former glory and more."
"Can't stop, won't stop." These words may seem meaningless to some, but for the past 72 days they have been the motivation for Brandon Scott Perry.
On April 3, 2011 Perry embarked on a journey that will affect himself and thousands of others for the rest of their lives. What started out as a dream turned into reality and sparked a movement - Trek for the Cause. Perry's 2,354 mile expedition for the American Cancer Society began on foot in Cincinnati and ended on bicycle in Los Angeles. At war with the weather, fatigue, his emotions, physical pain and, at times, boredom, he managed to overcome what seemed impossible.
Monday I had the chance to meet the man who has so greatly impacted myself and others alike somehow touched by cancer. Two Blue Moons, a near death experience with a sharp tortilla chip and a plateful of quesadillas later, we were no longer strangers.
CityBeat: How did you come up with the idea for the trek?
Brandon Perry: I've always wanted to go out on the open road and see how far I could go. On Nov. 4, a week after I found out my grandpa was terminal and I remember waking up and was like this is what I'm going to do: I am going to dress in all hot pink and ride a pink lawn mower across the country for breast cancer. Since that's not street legal and what not, I just decided I was going to walk across the country for the American Cancer Society to cover all types of cancers.
Olivia Doan is only eight years old and was diagnosed with a brain tumor on Oct. 24, 2010. She along with a grandfather and close friend, were the main inspirations for the trek. Olivia finished her last chemotherapy on June 19 and is now heading down the road of recovery.
CB: Were you always a runner?
BP: No, I've never been a runner. I go to the gym, but I've never did a marathon, never did a 5K or anything close to a marathon and have never been a biker. So for me, to pick up a bike 600 miles in was crazy. The last bike I had was when I was 15 and it had pegs on the back.
CB: What was the most difficult part about leaving?
BP: I knew it was going to be lonely, which it was. Unless I was staying in a firehouse, it was super lonely. If I wasn't in a firehouse, I was alone in a hotel or at someone's house. One night I just tented-it on the side of the road in Indiana. And having to leave my grandfather, knowing he might not be here when I get back.
Brandon's grandfather was diagnosed with bone cancer. He had the joy of seeing his grandson upon return on June 13. He's doing much better and continues to be Brandon's motivation.
CB: What was your lowest point during the trek?
BP: Day six, it was on a Friday and I was in Bloomington, Ind. on Indiana University's campus sitting at a bench in front of Chili's. I was waiting for my friend Andy to pick me to stay with him for the night. I'm looking at my Facebook, seeing all my friends post stuff like, "I'm going out tonight," or "Meeting up with everyone tonight." At that point I was thinking, "Am I really going to do this?" I had been doing 20-30 miles a day so it was rough and I just sat there, discouraged, thinking I couldn't do this. I left my friends the next day. It had been raining, but it finally cleared up and that was the only day I ever questioned it.
CB: Highest point during the trek?
BP: Finishing 103 miles in one day, through the desert. It was so hot, my face was caked with salt, my backpack - everything was caked in salt. It just really sucked, but I did it, I got finished. I knew at that point I was only five or six days from finishing.
CB: Most interesting person you came across?
BP: Gary Kearn, who was 68 years old, biking from LA to Chicago just to see if he could do it. He finished a couple days before I did. He ended up leaving from Chicago and biking to New York just because. A 68-year-old man, out living his dream.
CB: How much money has been raised at this point?
BP: Almost $11,000.
Trek for the Cause T-Shirts can be purchased here for $22, where a portion of the money will be donated to the American Cancer Society.
CB: Advice for anyone wanting to make a difference, small or big?
BP: Well, I don't suggest walking, but don't ever give up. I was just following what my heart told me to do. I don't feel like I'm a hero, I feel like I'm just a person who had an idea, a dream. I get a lot that I'm a hero, inspiration, crazy - I get all of that. If I made somebody feel they were big enough to take on the world and didn't raise a dollar, it would still all be worth it. Be inspired by small things and big things. If you ever get the chance, inspire yourself.
CB: Any future plans?
BP:� I want to do a fundraiser for Joplin, Mo. They are good people, just like any other community. But since I went through there and they helped me out a lot, I felt more responsible to do something for their community.
On June 13 after 72 long, lonely, life-changing days, Perry finally touched down to the place he calls home. He's been busy with news appearances, radio shows, other charity events and even an interview with a measly little intern from CityBeat.� I'm not going to lie, I was nervous at first because we were total strangers who would not even know each other if it weren't for my Facebook Creepin' Disorder. After the first five minutes though, I felt like I had known Brandon for ten years. I can only attempt to be half as determined, confident and inspiring as he is but for now I'll continue to help make Brandon's dream become a reality.
Come meet the man yourself June 23 for Brandon's Welcome Home Event from 6-9 p.m. at the Montgomery Inn Ft. Mitchell (400 Buttermilk Pike) and from 9 p.m.-2 a.m. at Mynt Martini on Fountain Square. There's going to be tons raffles, a silent auction, food, drinks and Brandon... duh. To make a donation, visit www.trekforthecause.com.
Check out Perry's run-in with the TMZ crew:
Get your glue guns ready, ya'll, because the Crafty Supermarket's about to take over the Northside Tavern. That's right. Your local watering hole (generally full of tight-pantsed drunks at night) will be hosting an indie craft show on Saturday afternoon (noon-6 p.m.) with handmade fine art, recycled goods, home decor, jewelry, children's items, stationery and more.
The masterminds behind this DIY dream are local writer/editor/crafter Grace Dobush and recent DAAP grad/sustainable shoemaker Alisha Budkie. The duo will be bringing together over 20 craft vendors from Cincinnati and the Midwest for a fair inspired by the likes of Renegade Chicago. Along with shopping opportunities there will be "swag bags" for the first 50 shoppers, music from PROJECTMILL, food from Dojo Gelato and others, and a Make It! table where attendees can get crafty with the BYOProjectors (read about them here).
CityBeat recently had a little e-mail exchange with Dobush, whose book, Crafty Superstar: Make Crafts on the Side, Earn Extra Cash and Basically Have It All, is about to be released, about the Crafty Supermarket.
CityBeat: What is the Crafty Supermarket?
Grace Dobush: Crafty Supermarket is an indie craft show, or a Rock & Roll craft show, which is more appropriate since it's in Northside. This is not your standard high-school auditorium, church-basement craft show: We're having music by PROJECTMILL, rad food from local vendors and 20 hip crafters who will be selling the stuff they make. No packaged stuff, no commercial stuff, no lame stuff—just arts and crafts!
CB: Why are you having a craft show? What's the goal?
GD: My goal is to solidify the craft scene in Cincinnati a bit. There are a ton of really talented crafters and artists here, but none of us seem to know each other! My co-organizer, Alisha, and I had never met until we were in Washington D.C. at the Summit of Awesome (a craft summit organized by the ladies who put on Crafty Bastards, a humongous indie craft show). We really wished there was an indie craft event in Cincinnati, and eventually we realized that we should step up and do it ourselves! It's either the DIY mentality kicking in or a pretty solid sense of masochism, I'm not sure which.
CB: You seem to be an indie craft guru. What is your crafting experience? What inspires you to craft? What crafts do you make/specialize in?
GD: That's the first time I've heard that one! I've just been crafting a long-ass time. I've been printmaking since I was a teenager and then took a course on bookbinding my freshman year of college. It just kind of snowballed after that, and I sought out like-minds on the internet. Right around 2000 was a turning point for indie craft... it got a name, the indie craft shows started coming out, and all the movers and shakers were on these craft message boards and got to know each other. Some of the folks I know from those boards back in the day I ended up interviewing for my book, Crafty Superstar.
I'm not a full-time crafter (I'm a magazine editor and writer by trade) but I love connecting with people and talking to people. There are plenty of crafters who are much more successful than me at being a business, but I saw a lot of word-of-mouth information that hadn't been collected anywhere else. And my book was born!
CB: What role does crafting play in our modern world, so to speak? Why is it important?
GD: I think the popularity of craft is a direct backlash to the super-industrialized big-box shopping culture. People are starting to see the value in knowing exactly where the things they buy come from, and there's nothing better than finding an object you absolutely love and getting to talk to the person who made it. Of course, big-box stores recognize that this aesthetic is totally hot, so you see crafty-ish knockoffs for sale that are probably handmade... but by child laborers who may or may not be working against their will.
There are also a pretty big number of crafters who focus on using sustainable, local and/or recycled materials. And of course, when you support an indie artist, you are directly supporting your local economy. I can almost guarantee the $10 you spend at Crafty Supermarket will turn around and get spent on bus fare for the Metro, dinner at Melt or drinks at the Tavern later.
CB: What vendors will be on hand at the market?
GD: We've got a really wide range of crafters—selected from almost 70 applications, which just blew us away. The crafters make jewelry, paper goods, housewares, kid's stuff, clothing, art, knit things—all sorts of stuff. We also tried to get a balance of crafters in terms of wanting this to represent Cincinnati crafters—about three-quarters of the vendors are from the Cincinnati region. And although we have a lot of vendors who are old hands at the indie craft sale thing, we also wanted to make sure to bring in some folks who are doing a show for the first time, because once upon a time, we were the newbies.
CB: What sort of crafts will attendees be able to make at the Make It! Table?
GD: We've got a really random assortment of supplies and guest curation by the crafty people from BYOProject, which is a crafty collective that meets at Happen Inc. in Northside once a month. It's an anything-goes kind of craft situation, but specifically we've got paper to make your own album cover (12-inch, of course), and little paperboard albums that you can decorate to make your own storybook or draw a demented family album. Whatev!
CB: Will this become an annual event? Do you have any other events planned for the future?
GD: From the very beginning Alisha and I have kept saying stuff like "Next year, we are so doing X and Y," or "Next year, we are never doing Z again." It's just felt kind of natural that this would roll into being an annual event. Plus, since the response has been so huge (our Facebook event has 130 guests at this point) that it would be a shame to never do it again!
We don't have any more events planned immediately—we need some recovery time!—but at this point we're totally planning to do something even bigger for next fall. The late fall is primo craft sale time because people are much more willing to spend money to buy gifts for other people. It's pretty safe to say you'll see Crafty Supermarket again next fall.

As someone who was born and raised in Cincinnati, I naturally spent my whole life wanting to get the hell out of here.
I hated that there was nothing to do on Friday nights except go to the movies, bake cookies or eat lettuce wraps at PF Changs. I hated the schizo weather (70 and sunny one day, 30 and snowing the next: just another week in Ohio). I hated the predominantly conservative mindset, the maddening monotonity of the suburbs, the city's aversion to all things new and different. I hated that you only had to drive 10 minutes in any direction to land in a sea of cornfields. And I hated Cincinnati's dangerous proximity to Kentucky, where odious mullets and high-waisted denim shorts continue their ruthless and tyrannical reign.
In short, I pretty much spent my entire life blaming my unfortunate geographic placement for all my problems. So when it came time for college applications, it was a no-brainer: I submitted my test scores, sappy personal essays and record of every nap I took in calculus to seven out-of-state schools — and just one in-state school.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I've been playing a lot of poker lately. That's not to say I'm not somewhat embarrassed each time I tell a fellow adult that I "play poker" — a statement which normally garners a response connecting the game to something along the lines of the lottery or Bingo. "Oh really? My father lost our first car betting on rat races. Hope your luck's better than his!"

I didn't watch this show on primetime but started when the reruns surfaced everywhere. That's the great thing about some sitcoms since I miss many good ones due to scheduling conflicts. They often return during daytime. I see in comments that many like David Spades character, but that's probably the main reason I didn't give the show chance before. A couple lines from a womanizer quickly turned me off from the entire show. Still not crazy about David Spades roll, but I love all the other characters especially Jeff & Audrey. Seeing the credits time after time I knew Oliver Hudson played Adam, but never made the connection to Kate Hudson until I recently saw a picture of brother and sister together. I felt sill, but Hudson isn't such a rare name.

EA Enthusiastic About the Possibilities of SmartGlass
Written Wednesday, June 20, 2012 By Lee BradleyView author's profile
The top brass at EA have outlined their enthusiasm for Microsoft's SmartGlass tech, saying that it ties in with a lot of what the publisher is trying to do with its upcoming titles and opens up the medium to a whole new audience.
"I think it's a killer initiative, I really like it a lot," said President of EA Labels Frank Gibeau. "It ties into what we're trying to do as a company."
"What we're trying to do as a developer of games is – we're looking at multi-screen environments as being really key in what's happening in gaming. You play games on your mobile. You play games on your PC. You play games on your console. So giving people more access points through multiple screens is a great thing."
EA Sports head Andrew Wilson echoed a similar statement, while nodding to the integration we can expect in future sports titles.
"I think it's very important for a couple of reasons. SmartGlass will bring in a whole new audience to gaming, but with respect to SmartGlass integration with a console experience it is changing the way people interact with consoles," he said.
"If you look at Madden or FIFA this year, they have a series of multi-screen applications that allow you to manage your connected career or manage your FIFA Ultimate team while you're in front of the screen or while you're away from the screen. What that's enabling is people to engage in a world that's very, very important to them that they're very passionate about even while they're away from their 60-inch television."
SmartGlass was unveiled at E3 this year. It's tech that allows players to control their Xbox 360 and consume peripheral content through their mobile and tablet devices. You can find more on SmartGlass here.

When you think of Louisiana do you think of New Orleans? Mardi Gras? Hurricane Katrina? Or do you think of your ancestors? Louisiana has a rich and colorful past. The Spanish, French and British fought over it for more than 300 years until the United States obtained most of the state as part of the Louisiana Purchase in 1803.
Louisiana is the only state in the nation that is made up of parishes and not counties. The entity parish is from the influence of the Roman Catholic Church, although counties and parishes function the same way in the modern day U.S. Another influence from the French and Spanish is that Louisiana state law is based more on the Napoleonic Code and Spanish code while all other states are based on English law.
But if your ancestors are from Louisiana, I bet you already knew that they danced to a different set of drums, didn't you?

Settlement Patterns,
Occupations, and Field Methods
Janet Rafferty
Settlement pattern analysis is dependent on well-thought-out delineation of occupations, following the understanding that occupations should be basic units, along with individual artifacts and features, for studying both variability and change in landscape use. In turn, occupation delineation is dependent on employing field methods that accurately record the three-dimensional location of artifact samples at all scales, from assemblages to mounds to microartifacts. In order to support use of methods that have the greatest potential to provide appropriate data, it is important to examine recent field practices in the Lower Mississippi Valley (LMV) and suggest ways they can be improved.
Much of our understanding of settlement patterning in the LMV, and especially in the Yazoo Basin, is based on data recovered by the Lower Mississippi Survey (LMS) in the 1940s and 1950s (Phillips 1970; Phillips et al. 2003 [1951]). The Survey recovered artifacts from 383 sites in 1940–1947 (Phillips et al. 2003 [1951]:219) and made a number of other collections, some from the same sites and some from newly recorded ones, in 1949–1955 (Phillips 1970:241– 242), for a total of 899 sites (Phillips 1970:961). The emphasis in collecting and analysis was on pottery. Aceramic assemblages, aside from those containing Poverty Point objects, were not prominent in the LMS collections. Projectile points were relatively rarely found (Phillips 1970:247–248; Phillips et al. 2003 [1951]:45) and neither Ford, in the 1951 volume, nor Phillips (1970) made an attempt to use them to order materials through time. Carr (this volume) comments on this issue.
Ford's settlement pattern analysis consisted largely of a study of different kinds of mound sites using seriation-based periods and five regions (Phillips et al. 2003 [1951]:309–344). Few villages without mounds, and no hamlet-sized or smaller habitation sites, were included in the study. This meant that the main distinctions Ford could make were between places with conical or flat-topped

As for her second showstopper, she opted for this floral number at the MOBO Awards on Friday, as she picked up her 'Best Newcomer' award. We can't think of a better way to turn heads than with this floral tutu from the McQueen Autumn/Winter 2012 collection. Her look was complete with gold Dsquared² strappy heels and her retro blonde curls.
Yes, she's definitely hot right now but which red carpet look do you prefer?

Sting: The Last Ship (JM's review)Posted on May 22, 2014 with 0 comments
Being a Sting fan hasn't always been easy. Haters love to tell you how pretentious and self-indulgent they think he is, and how his solo work lacks the fire and passion of The Police. But I disagree: I love the guy, and I love pretty much everything he's ever done. To me he's a Rock God: tall, handsome, supreme intellect, writes some of the best songs heard by human ears. (He's also one of rock's most under-appreciated bassists, by the way.)
But despite my man-crush, even my faith in Sting has been challenged over the last decade or so. His last two albums of original music - 1999's "Brand New Day" and 2003's "Sacred Love" - were heavy on production polish but lacked focus and cohesion. Arabic percussion here, muted trumpet over hip-hop beats there, gospel choir in 7/8, some guy rapping in French…I want Sting to show me his true feelings, not his passport stamps. (But I will say that the 5.1 mix of "Brand New Day" is a sonic treat.)

Lighted Sign, Star, Astroland
This lighted, turning, star-shaped sign was one of two such stars that adorned the top of the much larger entranceway sign on the Surf Avenue entrance to Astroland, a space-themed amusement park founded in Coney Island, Brooklyn in 1962. Dewey Albert and his business partners founded Astroland at the height of the space craze generated in the early 1960s by the successes of United States' human spaceflights, including John Glenn's orbital flight. The park's first amusement was a 71-foot long rocket ride initially called the Cape Canaversal Satellite Jet (although later continually renamed and refreshed during the 46-year life of the park). Mounted on hydraulic lifts, with fixed seats, a movie screen, and a sound system, the 12,000 pound ride took visitors on a simulated trip to the Moon. The Colonel Glenn Sky Ride, quickly renamed the Mercury Capsule Skyride, flew visitors above the park in plastic bubble cars. The star-topped entranceway sign, added in 1963, reflected the space theme of the park -- and evokes the lights and charm of Astroland in its heyday.
After Astroland closed in 2008, owners Carol and Jerome Albert donated the star to the Museum in 2009. The rocket ride was given to the City of New York.
Gift of Jerome and Carol Albert, owners of Astroland Park, in honor of Dewey Albert, founder.

I agree with Brian. The moderators seem to do a good job of stepping in to settle things down when necessary, and I don't feel like they've overstepped their bounds either.
No issues here. Pretty much just don't be a dumba$$ and you won't get moderated. Not sure how that is so hard to comprehend for some...

HURRELLCANE HITS THE COAST | The Gold Coast Titans have confirmed the signing of former Vodafone War...
79 mins ago
Nathan Cayless' slim chances of making the Kiwis team to play Australia in next Friday's rugby league international in Sydney have been extinguished after the Parramatta prop learned he faces at least another month on the injured roster.
The former Kiwis captain, who broke his arm in mid-April, was hoping to be back for the Eels' National Rugby League (NRL) clash against the Rabbitohs this weekend, but confirmed today he would be out for at least another four weeks.
"I thought I'd be back this week but it's not going too good. The doctor won't let me back until it's fully healed. I just have to be patient."
Cayless was not specifically targeting the second trans-Tasman clash at Auckland in October, saying: "I just want to play a game of footy for anyone."
He missed last year's Kangaroos' test in Wellington and the Kiwis tour of Great Britain and France with a knee injury and had hoped to represent New Zealand with his younger brother Jason, a starting prop with the Sydney Roosters, this year.
However, that goal is on ice as the 25-year-old contemplates the most frustrating three months of his career.
"It's been a tough time I can assure you. The (Parramatta) boys were struggling to win games early on and I felt really helpless not being able to do anything about it.
"I just got in there at training and encouraged the young blokes and it's been great to see them come on and do so well for the club. It's a great sign for the future."
Cayless suffered the injury when he tackled Wests Tigers wing Robbie Beckett during their round six encounter.
"I was looking forward to a big year but it all went wrong when my hand hit Robbie Beckett's head.
"The good thing is I'll coming back at the right end of the season and the team is starting to fire," said Cayless, who thought the Eels could still sneak into the play-offs.
He has been confined to gym work and road work during his lay-off to maintain fitness.
"I've been able to train for the past eight weeks so my fitness is reasonably good."
Meanwhile, Cayless was confident the Kiwis would produce a good showing against the world champions at Aussie Stadium.
"They've (Australia) had a good Origin series to prepare them, but there's always a good spirit within the Kiwis once they get together."
He expected Eels team-mate David Vaealiki to be named at fullback when coach Daniel Anderson announces his lineup on Sunday while "brotherly loyalty" dictated that he also put a word in for Jason ? who made his test debut against France last December.
"He's is good form at the Roosters, I'd like to think he's a chance."
Cayless said the second row combination would be difficult to select with so many worthy contenders.
"Maybe one of the second rowers will be pushed up to the front row. The two guys at Penrith (Tony Puletua and Joe Galuvao) are going really well, then there's Ruben (Wiki) and Steve (Kearney).
Ali Lauiti'iti's recent return from an elbow injury was another positive, Cayless said.

Garden type
Holly, the prickly beauty
Holly is one of the most significant evergreen shrubs, with prickly foliage that has been used in Christmas decorations for centuries. It makes a great hedge or an excellent evergreen specimen shrub whether or not cut into any particular shape. Standard Holly looks fantastic in pots on the patio or deccking, where they will provide some welcome green in winter.
Variegated or shiny green
The shiny Holly foliage can be variegated or deep green, and are stunning as a hedge or pruned into shape and when covered in their orange-red berries. The leaves are leathery and have a prickly, serrated edge. However, those at the tips of the branches are not as prickly and are sometimes completely smooth. They will remain on the shrub for several years before they drop to make way for new foliage. Holly flowers in May with tiny white flowers. Evergreen Holly shrubs can be very long-lived, perhaps reaching 300 years in age, and a height of 10 metres.
Holly will grow anywhere
Holly is a very undemanding plant and will grow anywhere as long as the ground is not too wet. A sandy or humus rich soil type is preferable. Common (green) Holly is extremely hardy, but the variegated varieties are a little bit more sensitive. Holly thrives in full sunlight as well as in deep shade. The variegated varieties need rather a lot of sunlight in order to maintain the colour of the foliage.
Ideal for hedging or topiary
The dark, evergreen foliage makes Holly exceptionally suitable for cutting into straight forms, but it is also a good foundation for topiary shapes such as standard cubes, spheres, pyramids, boxes or any other fantasy shape. Traditional English gardens often feature Holly shapes as they grow much taller than the well-known Box shrubs and the variegated shapes are even more prominent.
Pruning tips
Holly naturally forms a very dense, impenetrable hedge with some varieties exhibiting a conical growing habit. It grows rather slowly and hardly needs pruning. Only branches that disturb the shape of the shrub should be cut out. For this, use a sharp pair of secateurs and wear heavy-duty gloves for protection. Clipping a hedge or pruning Holly into a particular shape takes a little bit more effort. Prune these shrubs twice a year, once in June and again at the end of August.
Standard Holly
A variegated, standard Holly clipped into a spherical shape is a decorative feature all year round. The gold and green coloured Ilex aquifolium 'Golden King' has fewer spines on the leaves and is therefore easier to cut into shape. The standard, green Holly Ilex meserveae has lovely shiny foliage and is suitable even for small gardens, decking or the patio. Standard Holly is very decorative along garden paths or in tubs next to the front door.

The Box, adapted from a short story and Twilight Zone episode, is a science fiction period piece with a moral dilemma at its center. A financially strapped couple (Cameron Diaz and James Marsden) receives a mysterious box from a stranger. In it is a button. Push it and all their financial problems are solved, but someone they don't know dies.
A timely enough dilemma given the global financial crisis, but Richard Kelly has set his adaptation in the 70s in homage to the story's roots and modeled the couple on his own parents. So in a sense, the movie allows him to return to his childhood.
In the trailer we get an introduction to his vision of 1976 suburbia (scary wallpaper, regional accents) and some hints of how he has expanded the original story line. There appears to be some sort of corporate conspiracy centered around the strange disfigured man (Frank Langella) who sent them the box, and we get a brief glimpse of a few weird images that are definitely not 1976.

Symphonic Sewage: Waste-Treatment Plant Plays Mozart to Microbes
A sewage plant near Berlin is playing Mozart to its biomass-eating microbes, hoping the sweet sounds will make them work harder. The Austrian composer may save the facility as much as 1,000 euros a month.
A bit of Mozart, it seems, is useful for all kinds of things. There's "Mozart for the Morning Commute," "Mozart for Your Mind," -- and now Mozart for your manure. One German sewage plant is using the Austrian composer's music to motivate microbes in their treatment facility, in the hopes of driving down energy costs.
"The test will show whether it works for us," Detlef Dalichow, the plant's sewage manager, told the Märkische Allgemeine newspaper.
'Special Quality of Harmony'
The process was developed by Mundus, a small German firm headquartered in Wiesenburg in northeastern Germany. Anton Stucki, a founder and managing partner of the firm, came up with the approach himself over the past year.
"Mozart has a very good effect on people," Stucki told SPIEGEL ONLINE Tuesday. "His music has a special quality of harmony in correlation to its rhythm."
The process derives from the company's special stereo systems that are meant to accurately replicate the vibrations and sounds of a concert hall. The system used by the Treuenbrietzen wastewater plant costs 400 ($485) per month to rent from Mundus. Stucki estimates that a waste-treatment plant can save several thousand euros a year on energy costs, depending on the size of the plant.
Dalichow is hoping that Mozart will help his plant to cut costs. "If it means we can save 1,000 per month on sludge disposal, then it would definitely be worth it," he told the Märkische Allgemeine.

FEDERAL WAY, Wash. (AP) — Abby Johnston and Kelci Bryant own a slight lead over Kassidy Cook and Christina Loukas going into the 3-meter synchronized final at the U.S. Olympic diving trials.
Johnston and Bryant totaled 637.80 points through the preliminaries and semifinals Sunday on opening night of the eight-day trials at the Weyerhaeuser King County Aquatic Center south of Seattle.
Cook and Loukas finished at 631.29 after Cook's slight bobble in the fourth round of the prelims dropped them out of the lead.
The other six teams that advanced to Thursday's final were well behind. Deidre Freeman and Veronica Rydze were third at 531.90, followed by Carrie Dragland and Bianca Alvarez, Amanda Burke and Summer Allman, Gabriella Agostino and Logan Kline, Eszter Pryor and Rachel Rubadue, and Maren Taylor and Meghan Houston.

The funniest part of BB's HOF induction resume when they start reading down all his legendary accomplisments, he'll end up with so few coach of the year awards, people will think he wasn't that good. lol
It's kind of like when Ray Bourque was winning the Norris every year and they threw a bone to Chris Chelios one year just to change it up.
1 set of rules/barometers for 31 teams, one special one for BB and the Pats. I remember his personnel work in 2010 both in the draft, FA and with trades during the year going 14-2 and he sitll didn't win GM of the year. So pathetic. We'll never see a clinic like that again.
Not saying he should win this year at all, but it's almost like when he deserves it, people scramble to try to make arguments for less deserving coaches.
It has to go to Arians. Rookie QB, he's never been a head coach before, playoff team, etc. Slam dunk choice, without question.
Someone is too dumb to know that the reason BB has never won GM of the year is because he has never actually held that title. The Pat's dont list a GM and the closest thing to it is Vice President of player personnel and it would be them who would recieve the award..as Pioli did.
Although he and Caserio split duties and BB ultimately has the final say in player transactions, he is listed as head coach, not GM. The head coach is generally responible for players anyway, unless you have a de facto GM like Jerry Jones.
De facto GM is not the same as actually holding the title
It doesn't matter. So that means he and his partners should never win it as a group??!! That makes no sense and it proves what I said above.
1 set of rules for 31 teams, 1 special set for BB/Pats.
Now I've heard it all. The best GM of all time can't win a personnel award (shared with his staff).
What a joke and a completely PATHETIC premise.
Fact: Without question, the best front office work in 2010 was done by BB, Caserio and Floyd Reese.. Absolutely mastery with contracts, the draft, trades (IN SEASON) and the FA moves, while positioning themselves out of the lockout.
Your hatred and anti-BB bias as he leads this team is sickening. Absolutely disgusting. Get the help you need.
Like I said, Pioli recieved the AWARD AS VP/PP AS THAT IS THE CLOSTEST THING THEY HAVE TO A GM. BB doesn't care about titles unless it's SB champion.
Do you have a better explanation as to why Pioli was awarded the honors and not BB.
Think for once, dope of all dopes.
Then why wasn't Caserio given the award in 2010? Explain why the GM in 2010 who won the award, did a better job than Caserio here, under BB's leadership.
It shouldn't matter how businesses structure titles. We all know BB is the GM here, Caserio director of player personnel here and Reese handles the financials and contracts.
Your argument is pathetic. YOU explain why Caserio, working under Pioli's old title, didn't get the award in 2010.
This should be hilarious.
Don't have to explain any thing other than in the years the Pats won the award. they listed Pioli and not BB because the VPPP is the closest title to a GM. Period!
Have no idea why Caserio wasn't selected other than the Pats not advancing in the play-offs. Ya think? No you don't! dumb question.....
Stll waiting on those stats to support your ridiculous statement yesterday. What's the hold up, queen of fabrication?
Gotta go now because I actually do work for a living, unlike you. Just dropped in to see those fantactic stats you threatened to go get.
Oh, congats on your most recent lunacy stating that all the quiet (not responding posters) all agree with you. LMAO@U Oh, my what a loon!
Actually, I am on vacation all this week and through Tuesday, because you know, I have a real job and get actual vacation days, etc, etc.
You "having to go" is really code for "I better backpedal out of this because he's got me, so I'll tell everyone I need to get back to my standing desk at the movire theater with Phat Rex."
I am pretty sure the season awards are voted on BEFORE the postseason, stupid. So, your attempt at a deflection of the Pats not advancing far in the 2010 is a swing and a miss AGAIN.
Yet again, I have challenged you with a simple question for you to make sense of your psychobabble, but you just lost. Again.
Ya rusty, first you say you work out of your home office and then you say you travel 90% of the time and now you are on vacation all the while maintaining 500 post a week on BDC.
You don't work, you have no friends (male or female, perhaps plastic) and you have no life except for BDC where everyone hates you and the silent posters agree with you. BWAHAAAA
I told you the answer. BB is not the Listed GM and he can't get an award for a title he doesn't own. AS for 2010, the D sucked and you'd probably have to ask the voters why they gave it to someone more deserving. The D's sucked since PIOLI last got the award.
Perhaps they were looking for a more complete team where the O doesn't have to score 40 points a game to win. That's what most educated people look for.

W(h)ither Ecology? The Triple Bottom Line, the Global Reporting Initiative, and Corporate Sustainability Reporting

This paper offers a critique of sustainability reporting and, in particular, a critique of the modern disconnect between the practice of sustainability reporting and what we consider to be the urgent issue of our era: sustaining the life-supporting ecological systems on which humanity and other species depend. Tracing the history of such reporting developments, we identify and isolate the concept of the 'triple bottom line' (TBL) as a core and dominant idea that continues to pervade business reporting, and business engagement with sustainability. Incorporating an entity's economic, environmental and social performance indicators into its management and reporting processes, we argue, has become synonymous with corporate sustainability; in the process, concern for ecology has become sidelined. Moreover, this process has become reinforced and institutionalised through SustainAbility's biennial benchmarking reports, KPMG's triennial surveys of practice, initiatives by the accountancy profession and, particularly, the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI)'s sustainability reporting guidelines. We argue that the TBL and the GRI are insufficient conditions for organizations contributing to the sustaining of the Earth's ecology. Paradoxically, they may reinforce business-as-usual and greater levels of un-sustainability.

How can we get our toddler to let us brush his teeth?
My toddler refuses to let me or my husband brush his teeth. He simply clenches his mouth closed. We've tried using gauze on our fingertips and a child-sized toothbrush. We've even tried brushing our teeth together, as a family, and letting him hold his own toothbrush. Nothing has worked. I'd appreciate any suggestions or tips.

I got a great tip from my dentist that is working a treat. Lay your toddler on his back on the floor with his head in between your knees. Squeeze your knees gently so that his head is stable. Then brush away. My toddler thinks it is very funny to look at mummy upside down so he laughs and opens his mouth. However my dentist advised that even if they don't think it is funny a short term crying fit also means an open mouth and open access! I saw some terrible pics of kids with cavities and so am now prepared to fight the battle of daily brushing even if it means a few tears.posted 05/16/2005 by LouiseNoble01
At my house, we all brush our teeth together, then I let my son (2-1/2) "check" my teeth with my tooth brush to "make sure I got all of them" then I check his. Now his little sister, (14 months)is eager to join the game. Also, we have a little "hourglass" type egg timer. We all get our tooth brushes ready and then "ready, set, go" we brush until the timer runs out. Each of us has a coffee cup with our names on it to hold our own "special" toothpaste and an assortment of toothbrushes, so all of us get to pick which brush we want to use. True it's all a bit of a production, but after dinner, my son jumps down from his booster chair and says "brusha ma teeth Daddy, brusha ma teeth".posted 05/16/2005 by ephriamtutt
My 23 month old ds wants to brush his own teeth, but won't let me do it. I guess that's better than nothing, but I'm sure he's not getting a good brushing. Any suggestions on how to get him to let me do it?posted 05/15/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
My daughter is 22 months old and we still struggle with brushing her teeth sometimes. From about 12mo old to 19 mo old I would have to hold her down (which is not an easy task) but she would scream and her mouth would be wide open, so it worked. I hated doing it but I knew it was for her own good. Sometimes it helped if I would sit her on the sink and let her watch in the mirror as I brushed. I also bought some baby toothpaste (with no floride) and now I can get at least a couple good brushes in every night (with no screaming). After I'm done I give the brush to her and she chews/brushes for awhile. My point is nothing works 100% of the time just don't give up even the most stuborn child (like mine) eventually realizes that there not winning the battle and will give in eventually. In the mean time just stay consistant, and don't give in. It also helps if they aren't overly tired. I hope this helps.posted 05/13/2005 by chermom1
I have the same problem with my 15 mo. old. I let her hold the toothpaste and it distracts her while I brush. Other techniques I've used (and have worked) is to brush her teeth while she's in the tub and also brushing her teeth lying down.posted 05/13/2005 by yduran1
Briauna(19 months)also close's her mouth when I try to brush her teeth, so I give her the toothbrush w/ toothpaste on it and let her do it herself and when she's all done I open my mouth real big so she will open her mouth real big then I get to brush her teeth in that short time frame. I think @ this age you just need to be consistent w/ it so the get use to it. Just don't give up and make it apart of their routine even if they we'll only do it themselves, like my dd. At least they know they have to do it. HTHposted 05/12/2005 by Boobersmom03
I have to brush my sons teeth while he is in the tub. Then it only works if I let him do it after I get finished. Good Luck.posted 05/12/2005 by ~*Crystal_W*~
I was told by several people that children love to watch themselves. Try letting your little one stand in front of the mirror and ask him to show you how to brush his teeth. You may also want to try and brush your teeth at the same time while he shows you how to do it. Again, they like that feeling of empowerment. Brushing teeth while in the bathtub worked great for my little girl, she would watch herself in the little over-flow plate of the tub, using it as a little mirror.posted 05/11/2005 by Mommy_in_2002
Krista is 22 months old and will only let me brush her teeth while she's bathing. I just let her chew on the brush in the mornings but she has to let me brush them in the evenings if she wants to play in the bath. Of course, she likes to eat as much of the toothpaste as I will let her but at least I get one scrubbing in each day.posted 05/11/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
My daughter didn't like doing this either until we bought her an electric one. You know the kind that vibrate. We don't use and toothpaste yet, mostly because we're more interested in getting her to brush right now. Sarah Peyton Olivia 11-30-03posted 05/11/2005 by a BabyCenter Member
