Milan Township One Room School House
The Milan Township District #83 Schoolhouse served as a center for learning from the turn of the century until 1942. In 1942, it was closed and left to deteriorate. However, the schoolhouse was given a new lease on life when it was donated to the Blackwell History of Education Museum in 1996 and then rebuilt on the campus of Northern Illinois University in DeKalb, IL. Since 1999, the Milan Schoolhouse has been available to teachers at elementary and middle schools for re-enactment of a typical day in a one-room schoolhouse, professors at NIU and other institutions, and teachers at high schools for classes, other events, and families and organizations for various activities. We wish to thank Dr. Eui-Kyung Shin, assistant professor in the Department of Teaching and Learning, for her guidance of Rebecca Edwards in the development of this curriculum.A Blackwell Museum staff member has created lesson plans for students in 1st through 8th grade that allow them to experience a school day in the early 1900s, depending on the teacher's preference. The one room school is currently unavailable for visits, but we hope to have it open again in the Spring of 2014. If you have any questions or comments, please contact us at email@example.com.

Business Service Management (BSM) Whitepapers
The rapid pace of mobile apps demands new approaches to functional testing. To bring high-quality software to market quickly, your organisation needs a strategy that moves you beyond the limitations of testing on devices you manage in an internal lab. In this whitepaper, we look at how to test an application in a realistic environment and how to simplify and accelerate the testing process. Click to download.
In the context of traditional practices, mobile applications are disruptive and difficult to monitor. Mobile applications, whether they support employees or customers, further complicate the performance monitoring in several ways. In this whitepaper, we look at five mobile issues that arise in mobile application testing and ways to resolve the issue. Click to download.
Increase flexibility, lower costs, and more effectively meet the needs of the business with BSM for Cloud Computing. By any measure, the hype around Cloud computing has reached nearly deafening levels. However, behind the wall of hype lies a fundamentally straightforward concept — one that's been percolating for many years in the IT world. Cloud computing is an architecture that enables IT organizations to parcel out portions of a shared pool of hardware and so ware resources to users through an automated, self-service request system.
Cloud computing is a major departure from the traditional IT service delivery model. Services are no longer tied to dedicated hardware silos. Instead, virtualized resources — servers, network devices, and storage — are abstracted from the hardware. They move freely about the infrastructure, delivering services when and where they are needed. But this doesn't mean that you have to completely reinvent IT to implement cloud computing.
Many IT organizations are struggling to cope with the ever-growing complexity of the IT infrastructure in today's data centers. To compound this challenge, they must also balance the need to respond to pressure for delivering IT services faster and more cost effectively than ever before. As a result of these economic and staffing pressures, many organizations are seeking alternate service delivery and enterprise management approaches. These approaches can balance the need for control while reducing risk and increasing agility in providing cost-effective service delivery.

Associated Press
WASHINGTON — New Secretary of State John Kerry reached out to Israeli and Palestinian leaders in phone calls this weekend, assuring them the Obama administration will continue to pursue a Mideast peace agreement while recognizing the individual concerns on both sides.
Kerry told Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of his and President Barack Obama's commitment to support Israel's security and to pursue a lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians. Netanyahu updated Kerry on his work to form a new government. They also discussed Iran and Syria, and pledged to work together closely.
Kerry commended the Israeli decision to release frozen tax revenues to the Palestinian Authority as an important step. Israel's monthly tax transfers to the Palestinians — the result of taxes and customs duties that Israel collects on behalf of the Palestinians — are a key element in the Palestinian government budget.
In his conversation Sunday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Kerry said Obama "is very interested in the peace process and aware of the economic hardships of the Palestinian people," Abbas spokesman Nabel Abu Rdeneh said. Rdeneh also noted that Kerry said he would visit the region for further talks with Abbas "to preserve the political path." No time was set for the visit.
The State Department said Kerry spoke of his personal commitment to peace between Israelis and the Palestinians. Kerry pledged to continue efforts with the Congress to release budget support funds for the Palestinian Authority and noted the positive step the Israelis had taken by releasing the tax revenues.
The department also said Kerry spoke with Israeli President Shimon Peres on Saturday about the formation of the country's new government, and said the two "exchanged views" on the peace process and regional matters.
On a busy first weekend as America's top diplomat, Kerry also:
Talked with Japanese Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida and agreed to work closely together to prepare for the visit of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe to Washington later this month. He thanked Kishida for the role Japan plays in Afghanistan, Burma and in support of the Syrian opposition.
Talked with South Korean Foreign Minister Kim Sung-hwan and agreed on the need to ensure that North Korea understands that it will face significant consequences from the international community if it continues its provocative behavior.
Got an update from Turkey's foreign minister, Ahmet Davutoglu, about the investigation into Friday's suicide bombing at the U.S. Embassy in Ankara.
Spoke with Canadian Foreign Minister John Baird about Iran, Mali and the proposed Keystone XL pipeline that would run from Canada to Texas.
Spoke with Mexico's foreign minister, Jose Antonio Meade, about the deadly blast at the headquarters of Mexico's state-owned oil company.
Had lunch with George Shultz, secretary of state under President Ronald Reagan.
Kerry was sworn in Friday afternoon, succeeding Hillary Rodham Clinton in Obama's Cabinet.

You are fully prepared with proper gear and you're physically fit to do this hike with the group.
COMMENTS & QUESTIONS: Please message Event Host directly for a speedier reply. Thanks for reading.
Slow & steady, always ready...a hike up Ha Ling became a luge run down Sulphur. Learn to live in anticipation of the moment, and you'll expect the unexpected and ferret out the fun. This was a good day...worth remembering! Starting with a great coffee at Mercato's in Canmore (Shellie's favorite) followed by the Bear Aware to learn how bears are identified, captured. transported, tagged and relocated. We became seasoned pros with Bear Spray... Peter's form was flawless realizing afterwards the bear wasn't real but he shot it anyways cuz he said it looked board.
Bad weather turned worse and we headed to Sulphur Mtn. where Master Woo lead the charge to the top in record time literally running the last 30 meters - ya should have seen it. Going down can be boring so to stave off the whiners (you know who you are) we created luge runs to enjoy off-trail slope maneuvers. The Hot Springs and Banff Ave. Brewery (thanks Daniel) completed the day. Remember to achieve the summit is only halfway.
1 · April 14, 2013
I plan on attending the bear info session anyway, as I live in Canmore, but I have an appointment back in Calgary Sat evening, so heading up Ha Ling with you (it would be my 25th ascent of it) may leave that timeline a bit tight for me. I won't put myself on the list, but I'll watch for those of you who have posted your photos and say hello if I recognize you at the bear aware segment.

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Talking Hockey On The Last Saturday In July
by Paul on 07/30/16 at 01:41 PM ET
Comments (0)
from Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe,
- Veteran NHL linesman Don Henderson, brutalized by Dennis Wideman's blindside assault during a game on Jan. 27, three weeks ago required neck surgery to repair damage from the hit and friends of his worry that his officiating career may be finished.
Henderson, 47, was near the boards, with his back to Wideman, when the Flames defenseman skated into him, inexplicably lifting his arms and knocking Henderson to the ice. Typically not one to engage in rough stuff, particularly during his four-year stint with the Bruins, Wideman appeared to leave his feet when making contact — a move that usually would bring a charging call and/or game misconduct if it were perpetrated against another player....
- ... If Holland is convinced Mrazek is his No. 1, the most obvious salary "fix'' would be to move Howard, the 32-year-old ex-UMaine Black Bear. Howard is on the books for three more years at $5.3 million per, a fairly comfortable number for a No. 1, especially with his solid résumé. One possible move would have the Wings retaining, say, a third of his salary. The acquiring team would have a proven No. 1 for roughly $3.6 million (cheaper than Mrazek) and the Wings would have to carry only $1.7 million of his cap hit.
- Once the Oilers moved Taylor Hall to New Jersey to acquire puck-moving defenseman Adam Larsson, it meant all of the top six picks in the 2010 draft were no longer with the clubs that drafted them.
No. 7 that year, Jeff Skinner, remains in Carolina, where GM Ron Francis has opted instead to move out virtually everyone else — notwithstanding the somewhat curious move to bring back struggling goaltender Cam Ward on a new two-year deal.
To recap the 2010 top six:....

Afternoon Line- Michael Arace On Gary Bettman And The Concussion Lawsuit
by Paul on 07/30/16 at 01:33 PM ET
Comments (1)
Bettman is doing the bidding of the NHL's 31 owners and fighting the suit with everything he can muster. It might save money in the short term, but the long term is a different story. The NFL's case is instructive. Litigation, discovery and the power of the federal government eventually directed king football to dedicate $1 billion to the health and welfare of its former players. Bettman has this case history with which to contend. What is more, he has a peeved U.S. senator after him. It cannot end well for the NHL.
Bettman is waiting for a scientific consensus for legal reasons. Meanwhile, he is telling 4,300 former players that the league does not care about them — and, by ignoring what is known, and by making only token efforts to improve player safety, he is telling 700 current players that odds are the vast lot of them probably won't commit suicide. It is a craven message to the sport, its athletes and its fans.

First off, thanks to all for the kind words, thoughts and prayers will I was away with a few health issues.
I am feeling somewhat better but do need to take it easy the next few days in order to recover from a few medical procedures I had recently.
I will go into more detail early next week and I would also like to thank George Malik for pulling double duty the lasr few days.
Hopefully George can do some relaxing while on vacation because it is well deserved, meanwhile let me get my feet on the ground again which will allow me to continue to do what I do.

Matt Cullen energized by Cup win, wants to play one more year
by George Malik on 07/30/16 at 09:50 AM ET
Comments (0)
From NHL.com:
Matt Cullen spent his first day with the Stanley Cup this summer reiterating that he wants to play a final season in the NHL, even if it's not a return to the champion Pittsburgh Penguins.
"I want to play one more season. It's just a matter of figuring out that destination," Cullen told 970 WDAY radio in Fargo, N.D. "We'll see. It's a work in progress."
Cullen had the Cup in Detroit Lakes, Minn., on Friday and will take it to Moorhead, Minn., on Saturday. He also won the Cup in 2006 with the Carolina Hurricanes.
"It's fun to see how excited everybody gets around it," Cullen said. "There's just something special about it. We win it, we work really hard to win it ... It's really rewarding and it makes it a lot more special for all of us players, but especially me being able to bring it home and seeing how much people respect it and how much it means to everybody.
"You see that trophy, and it just kind of takes your breath away when you see it, so it's cool. It's fun to bring it home and it's really fun to see people's reactions and how much it means to everybody."

by George Malik on 07/30/16 at 09:42 AM ET

Today's legal news comes from Reuters...
The NHL's players union on Friday urged a U.S. court not to grant Commissioner Gary Bettman broad power to override arbitrators when deciding how severely to discipline players for improper on-ice conduct.
Citing a recent appeals court ruling against New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, the NHL Players' Association said Bettman should not be allowed to restore a 20-game suspension of Calgary Flames defenceman Dennis Wideman for hitting a linesman, after an arbitrator cut the ban to 10 games.
The NHL had sued to revive the longer suspension on June 8, contending that the arbitrator reviewing the matter under the league's collective agreement was not "neutral," and ignored substantial evidence justifying the original ban.
But in a filing with the U.S. District Court in Manhattan, the NHLPA said Wideman's 10-game ban should stand.
Citing the April 25 court ruling restoring Brady's four-game suspension from the NFL for deflating footballs, the union said federal courts have only "narrowly circumscribed" authority to review labor arbitration decisions.
"A federal court may not require perfection in arbitration awards," the union said. "The court must simply ensure that the arbitrator was even arguably construing or applying the contract and acting within the scope of his authority and did not ignore the plain language of the contract. There can be no credible dispute that this was the case here."

All about Arizona Coyotes GM John Chayka
by George Malik on 07/29/16 at 10:10 PM ET
Comments (2)
From the Associated Press:
His time on the ice done, John Chayka would turn to the tape, spending up to 25 hours to break down the game just played.
He tracked every player on the ice, every possession, touch of the puck, calculating the impact of every decision or movement on the ice.
The attention to detail, to making himself and his teammates better, led Chayka to co-found his own hockey analytics company. Now it's helped him become the youngest general manager in NHL history, a meteoric rise even he didn't see coming.
''It would be silly to suggest it wasn't a little surprising,'' said Chayka, named GM of the Arizona Coyotes on May 5. ''It's like anything in life; good fortune, good timing, a lot of that plays into it. I always just try to better myself every day, learn every day.''

Meet the Las Vegas NHL team's Mr. Everything
by George Malik on 07/29/16 at 06:59 PM ET
Comments (2)
Yahoo Sport's Josh Cooper profiled Murray Craven, whose role with the Las Vegas NHL franchise is...Well, complicated:
Murray Craven doesn't have an official title with the Las Vegas NHL team but that's because he doesn't have one specific role in one specific area.
He's helping the team design their locker room. He's working on the Summerlin-area construction of the practice facility, which also includes the team's office space. He guided billionaire owner Bill Foley to hire George McPhee as the team's general manager.
"At this point I just do the work," said Craven who played 1,071 games in his NHL career between the Detroit Red Wings, Philadelphia Flyers, Hartford Whalers, Vancouver Canucks, Chicago Blackhawks and San Jose Sharks. "I know what's out there. I know what needs to be done and that's what I do."
The 52-year-old Craven is a living, walking embodiment that timing can help in the successes of life. If he hadn't met Foley while playing golf in Whitefish, Montana in the early part of last decade, he may not have had this opportunity – to help mold and create the first major pro sports team in Las Vegas.
But his ability to successfully do his job is more than just luck. Through those trips to the golf course and personal time with Foley the two have built up a level of trust and understanding where Craven has quickly become one of the few people who can help build this team in Foley's image.

On Tyson Barrie's arbitration case
by George Malik on 07/29/16 at 05:08 PM ET
Comments (0)
The Colorado Avalanche and Tyson Barrie went through the arbitration process on Friday, and the Hockey News's Ken Campbell discusses the ramifications thereof:
Barrie had his case heard by arbitrator Elizabeth Neumeier Friday morning and has until 48 hours after the completion of the hearing to render her decision. The two sides have until that time to come to a contract resolution, however. If they do prior to the decision, the arbitrator's decision will not be made public. It's expected that if Barrie goes the distance he'll receive somewhere between $4 million and $6 million a season on a two-year deal. Barrie asked for $6 million on a one-year deal, while the Avalanche requested salaries of $4 million and $4.25 million on a two-year deal. Since the Avalanche were the party taken to arbitration, they had the option of selecting a one- or two-year deal. That forced Barrie to come up with a salary figure for the second year of the deal in arbitration, a figure that is not available.
The Avalanche have the option of walking away from the ruling, which would immediately make Barrie an unrestricted free agent, but it would be shocking to see them take that course of action. What is more likely if the Avalanche are not happy with the ruling is they could trade him. There are no limitations on trading a player who has been taken to arbitration and since Barrie does not have a no-trade clause in his contract, the Avalanche would be free to trade him anywhere in the league.
There has been a lot of talk of a potential trade to the Edmonton Oilers, where Barrie would be a very good fit as a puck-moving defenseman who can produce points. The Oilers have talented forwards, but what they're missing right now is a defenseman who can get the puck to them.

Ben Bishop healthy, ready for the World Cup
by George Malik on 07/29/16 at 02:05 PM ET
Comments (0)
Tampa Bay Lightning goaltender Ben Bishop engaged in a Q and A with ESPN's Joe McDonald:
ESPN.com: How is your leg injury and where are you with your offseason workouts?
Ben Bishop: It's going good. The leg is feeling better and it's getting stronger every day. I'm getting ready to start skating soon ... and get back on the ice and doing that side of things. We have about a month until we go, so I'll start off slow and pick it up in the next month and be ready for training camp for the World Cup.
ESPN.com: Now that you're focused on your preparation for the World Cup, what does this opportunity mean to you?
Ben Bishop: It's a great opportunity. Obviously, it's not new but it's a little bit newer with the World Cup coming back and I think everybody is excited that it's going to be on ESPN. It's a whole different feel to it; it's not another NHL season, or the Olympics, it's a brand new thing coming out again and I think everybody is excited. Everybody's going to be fresh, it's going to be good hockey and it's in a great market in Toronto. There are so many good things coming out of it and I'm excited to be a part of it.

competition, copyright, darrell issa, innovation
The list of Congressional Representatives who seem to actually understand copyright issues is a pretty short one (which can be counted with the fingers of one hand), so it's always nice to see at least hints of another one beginning to wake up to the problems of today's copyright laws. While much of the recent House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts and Competition Policy focused on a frightfully silly attack on Google, not all of the discussion was apparently about Google. At one point, it appears that Rep. Darrell Issa asked the panelists if "strict intellectual property laws could be stifling competition and innovation." Thankfully, Ed Black from CCIA was one of the panelists, and was quick to point out that this was absolutely true, even pointing out how copyright, at times, appears to "interfere with free speech." I have no idea if this actually means much in the grand scheme of things, but it's so rare to see an elected official even admit that there might possibly be some downsides to copyright law, that it seemed worth highlighting.

Re: Re: One Can Only HopeIt's funny to see that US citizens complain about the same idiocy displayed by their government as we do. We of the former communist countries hope to have governments as efficient, benevolent and incorruptible as yours in about 100 years given current evolution. It seems however they are not all that different "up there".
Re: Re: Re: One Can Only HopeWe are rapidly moving to a "planned economy" similar to the old USSR. The difference; instead of a bureaucrat idly establishing production goals, we have tax "incentives" to encourage production. So, maybe the old communists will have the last laugh after all.
Vic, Sep 17th, 2010 @ 10:56amit seemed worth highlighting.

I feel so bad that I didn't warn you guys in time. I know that we spoke after you signed the contracts and I wish I would have caught on to his scam before then. I myself didn't get paid the thousands of dollars he owed me for working for him. I hope that he goes away for a long long time. I have been contacted by the DA's office and I plan to help them anyway that I can.I agree with cPj. He is way better than the average con man. He got us too. He gets you by giving you an awesome deal so you get suckered into paying up front. He sells low quality products. Makes promises he never delivers on. Uses fabricators that can't speak English and don't know what they're doing. We had a month and a half of nightmares in our kitchen for a simple job that was supposed to take a week. Yeah, looking back we should've been suspicious. But at the time, it's easy to get suckered in with him unless you're experienced in having kitchens done !

Yes I got scammed. And if he robbed Peter to pay Paul,someone tell Paul I want the rest of my cabinets and granite tops or my money. And as far as Dave is concerned he must like stoney lonesome. Three square meals,a cot a place to bathe and clean cloths, and we will pay that bill also. What's an honest person to do? Now we are all involved. I think he does have a mental illness that is being over looked. That combined with O.C.D. Maybe he has Criminal O.C.D. Lock him up. I will pray for his parents. I'm sure they are upset with him also. I could go on and on but I must stop.
#24 May 18, 2010
I do not understand . I have to produce what I say I will provide. We are dragging through this recession and he is stealing from honest hard working people.
Why can he keep on doing this?
#25 May 18, 2010
We are required to pay our vendors deposits now. We can not return any cabinets or Granite once we order the material.Uncle Sam has made it almost impossible to produce kitchens without a deposit. Plus ,on construction loans the banks may hold a check until the house is complete. Try going 90 days with no pay and still pay employees, insurance and buy food.

I feel really sorry for the people who were taken for their hard earned money. I'm not making excuses for his criminal acts, but something must have happened in his life to make him act the way he does. Back in high school, he was a good friend of mine; honest, kind and friendly. I'll be praying for those that got taken, but will also pray for David and his family. It was a real shocker to see his face on TV last night.

That is the saddest thing a person can say about another human being. Have you ever made mistakes? Do you believe in god? After a relative hung themself because of stress thru my own experience it makes me sick that someone ...a human being would comment in such fashion. How sad that someone could say, post or wish that. I hope you can sleep at night. I wil pray for you. That is a quite disturbing comment.
#32 May 23, 2010
You say this, but this man is scum. He would rip you off in a heart beat. I have no pity for him. If he doesn't get put away for a long time for this, I will find him. and I'll be bringing the rope!

David Freeman quoted our job over $45,000 for a custom kitchen, hardwood flooring, finished basement and 3 bathrooms remodeled.
He never finished anything. I have no cabinets, he wrote two checks for flooring from closed accounts, never paid subs leaving me having to pay for things twice to avoid leins. This man paints a beautiful picture of what he will do and gives you a great price to do it. Calls you almost every day until he gets the draws for work to be done and then he does not call you anymore and does not pay anyone for materials or labor that you paid him for in the draws. He is the worst kind of criminal. He never intended to do the work. He steals from everyone he can. Be careful of people like him. I checked his references and they all said he was great just slow. People from his church, and neighbors that is how he works. Does a few good jobs for people close to him and uses them as references. Use local people and established contractors for your next project.
Home Owners hold tight to your money.
#34 May 29, 2010
I feel terrible for everyone who was scammed by this man. He even scammed the owner of a cabinet importing company I work with out of over $15,000.00 for displays that did not get paid for. I am already helping a lady in Advance who was devastated when Freeman ran off with her money. I will say that Honest Cabinet Lady above is correct by having to receive deposits for material. Retailers need to receive 1/2 up front to pay manufacturers deposit requirements and wholesalers such as myself must receive 100% up front. The economy has forced many manufacturers to do away with material on credit to dealers because there are so many builders/kitchen cabinet companies who have gone out of business due to the tough economy.

You're an idiot. I bet you're related to him. He's gonna get his!

This is my most favorite flash ever!! Keep up the good work!
You are a very talented animator.
Like people have said in the past, it's Ren and Stimpy with stick figures and more violence, which definitely isn't a bad thing.
But, your animations are just so nice and smooth in their movements, unlike other flashes I've seen here. Keep it up.
I remember this.
This was one of the very first things I watched on newgrounds.
I was surprised to see it on the front page, when I saw it so long ago. =)
lmao i was laughing the whole time reminded me of superman?? lol good movie
great movie!
ure movie waz hilarious! loved the part where the guy who got hit comes on top of the building! very creative too. how did u come up with the ballon thing idea anyway? my favourite part waz the end though when he dies. hope u make a second one!
