Historical Traveler Reviews Sheraton Hanoi
We recommanded this beautifull hotel the room was fantastic big and beautifull, the bathroom was very modern and very clean. The staff very nice, the pool and garden fantastic afetr all day visiting the town . If i go back to Hanoi I will stay there again even if it is out of town beacuse it is so quiet compare with the city.
Nice hotel and staff
The Hanoi Sheraton is a great hotel that is located a few kilometers from the city center on scenic West Lake. I found the hotel's location a benefit in that it was very quiet and away from the noise and hustle of the city center.
The rooms are large, clean, and much nicer than any I have seen at a Sheraton in SE Asia. Also, the restaurants, bar and service are all top notch.
But be warned, you will need a taxi to go anywhere. Otherwise, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this hotel, and would definitely stay at it again.
The second time my wife and I have stayed at this hotel and we felt it was not as good as the first visit last year.
Due apparently to an APEC summit we had to pay 50% more than last time for a "higher" catergory room which was exactly identical to the room we had the previous time apart from being on a higher floor.
We are not quite sure what happened to Sheraton's "sweet sleeper" bed but sleeping sweetly was certainly something we didn't achieve in one of the most uncomfortable hotel beds I've slept in a very long time.
Service veered between excellent to non-existant. Some days the room was not cleaned till late afternoon. We honestly don't care if the hotel provides turndown service or not - but doing so one night and not the next seems just designed to annoy. And we were billed $35 for items from the minibar which we hadn't had and were still in the room.
To be fair the front desk staff were very helpful as were the doormen.
Overall inconsistent - really should have been better for the price.
Need a taxi to get around, but great hotel
The rooms were great and the service excellent. The hotel has a decent concierge that helped us out with day trips and flights. You could definitely find cheaper day trips if you went into the Old Quarter, but it was very convenient and the trips were nice. There's really not much to do by the hotel so you have to take a taxi into the center, but there are always taxis at the hotel.
Great hotel if location in Old Quarter is not key factor
Great hotel near scenic West Lake. Beautiful, large and clean rooms that are more upscale than most Sheratons (in fact, this is the best Sheraton I've stayed at), friendly helpful service, nice gym and pool (although not heated pool), good value buffets at the main restaurant downstairs.
Only drawback is the hotel location - but location is either a benefit or drawback depending on what you're looking for, I preferred staying away from the hustle and bustle of the Old Quarter but you do have to be willing to take cabs back and forth (only 10-15 minutes away from most tourist attractions and equivalent to US $3-$5 rides depending on how much you tip).
Great, Though Non Central, Hotel to Escape the Hustle and Bustle of Hanoi
Having stayed at way too many Sheratons around the world, this rates by far as one of the better.
This sparkling, new hotel is very well proportioned with a warm and vibrant atmopshere. It is located on a beautiful lake and a few kilometers from the main tourist destination of the Old Quarter or Ho Chi Minh's tomb.
The hotel is very relaxing with a large pool area along with a great gym. Food is very good and the service excellent. We stayed on the club floors, which for a relatively small incremental charge includes a great breakfast and a three hour happy hour with canapes. Well recommended.
Rooms were very clean, modern and comfortable with great views of the lake and the city.
The only downside of the hotel is the location. Unlike the Hilton Hanoi Opera or the Sofitel Metropole which are located in the Old Quarter, the Sheraton requires a 15 minute journey via the free thrice daily shuttle or a USD$4 cab.
However, if you are looking for serenity in the chaotic city of Hanoi this is a great hotel to relax in.
Nice Hotel but location could be better
The hotel itself is very nice. Rooms are great, very good gym and a decent pool. However, it is near West Lake and most of the food and entertainment is in the Old Quarter. It is easy to get a taxi into town, but you might find it more convenient to stay at a hotel closer to the Old Quarter.
Hot and stuffy
The hotel had major air con problems when i was there. Had to have engineers in my room at 3:00 am. Improved but not icey cold. Buffet lunch ok for expats but nothing special on an international level. Some minor service probs like room bar manager knocking on my door at 9:00 am on a sunday and being left standing at the breakfast station for over 5 mins waiting for the chef to come, eventhough I has been spotted several times by wait staff. Overall, not impressed at all.
Very Happy
The hotel was fantastic, I loved the location on the lake and away from the traffic noise. The business centre is one of the best equiped I have seen. The view from the rooms are amazing Thanks
Bring a written confirmation or don't go
Very nice hotel but we were plagued by lost reservations on 3 separate occasions..finally gave up. They PROMISE that they have you in the computer when you call to confirm....but when you get there, your room miraculously dissappears. It may miraculously re-appear if you wait and complain long enough.....but hope you're not tired! Go to the Daewoo Hotel instead...it actually has nicer accomodations, is less expensive and is more reliable.

Math is Everywhere for Everyone!
Welcome to our inclusion strategies math page. Within you will find a vast array of resources to help guide and inform you on how to differentiate instruction to best serve the needs of all your students. We are Linda, Lorie, Cathy, Abby and Adele; and we wish to find ways to help all students, special needs or not, to learn critical math skills. Enjoy!
Chapter 14: Mathematics
Inclusionary mathematics pp
View more presentations from zenda55.
Abby Kaylor's Contributions:
Week 1-
http://www.as.wvu.edu/~acad/sitemapm.html~ This site provides a wealth of strategies in mathematics for students who have disabilities. This includes everything from ADD to Learning Disorders to Behavioral Disorders and more. This is a very broad site that includes strategies, organizations, resources, books and videos.
www.mcie.org/docs/publications/Journey%20to%20**Inclusion**.ppt~ This PowerPoint provides a large overview of inclusion. It provides a great description of what inclusion is and what it should and shouldn't look like in the classroom. It explains the basics of instructional planning, differentiation, and how to apply these things in the classroom. Accommodations and modifications are presented in a way that allows teachers and soon-to-be-teachers an easy and applicable way of approaching inclusion in the classroom.
~ This video is AMAZING!!! A inclusive school from the US has paired with an inclusive school in Africa. This video documents the teachers from America going to Africa to visit the classroom. It shows all the different ways that the school in Africa is inclusive, including manipulatives, different types of therapies, lots of visuals on the walls, etc. Great great video!!
Week 2-
~This article is a great resource for teachers looking for specific strategies to use with students in math. It offers ideas specifically for students who struggle with reading and have difficulties comprehending math because of this. It offers suggestions of creating math dictionaries, reciprocal teaching and more! *Abby 6/29*
~This video may be a little unrelated, however I found it to be VERY important and inclusive for ALL students. It somewhat scolds our current educational system for not reaching our students through the use of technology (computer, internet, ipods, and cell phones). It explains, somewhat dramatically, how technically involved our students are, and gives many useful ideas for incorporating these technologies into every classroom, lesson, etc. in order to reach every child. It also give some great, and somewhat astounding facts on just how much our students are 'plugged in'. The best part, however, is the ideas the video gives for using technology to reach all students! *Abby 6/29*
~This video gives practical, applicable ideas for math in the inclusive classroom. It gives visual representations of the math "rules" that kids need to learn in order to do math. It shows a "function machine" that allows students to have a great visual for these rules. Great tool to use in the classroom! *Abby 6/29*
Week 3-
~This is a website that is really for teachers, districts, and educators. It gives great ideas on building an inclusive classroom community, but is mostly a website designed to sell inclusive math curriculum. The reason I liked it, however, is that it gives a ton of sample lessons, and ideas of how to implement them in the classroom. They also have teacher trainings on inclusionary math strategies that teachers could attend, if they wanted to! *Abby 7/4*
~This article was written about ten years ago about English Language Learners in the Northwest (guess what, thats where we live!) It gives great ideas about teaching math and science to ELLs, how to go about it, when to use English and when to allow students to learn in their native language. This article is long, but a great read, especially because it is so applicable to us all!!! *Abby 7/4*
This site is the National Library of Virtual Manipulatives. It has everything from being able to build graphs and charts, to games related to algebra and geometry and more. It is a great site for all kiddos, but is especially great for those who need visual relationships and manipulatives in order to support their math. Plus, what child today doesn't love to get on a computer!!! *Abby 7/4*
Week 4-
~This is a great fractions song that could be used in any upper elementary or middle school class where fractions are being taught. I have found that helping students memorize the rules for fractions can be a tedious process, however with a catchy little tune like this, they may never get these rules out of their heads again! I love little tricks like this, because they offer a visual and an auditory solution for all students, and it is repetitious. Plus, teachers could use it over and over throughout the unit on fractions, which would really embed it into the students' heads. *Abby 7/13*
~This video shows the new applications being made for the iphones in regards to math education. This video specifically shows math for first grade, but I have included a link to the website that gives descriptions for the applications available for the iphones and ipod touches for kinder through fifth grade, plus money and time math. These are great resources for kiddos who have autism, who are visual learners, or who are simply technologically driven. I know that most schools at this point do not have this technology; however some kids have access to this technology at home, so I still think these are great resources! *Abby 7/13* http://www.apps-school.com/NSC-Partners.php
Motivating Students from Gary Stager on Vimeo.
~This video is just a small blurb from a conference done by Alfie Kohn on motivating students. He gives some great ideas on how to arrange the classroom and things to do in order to motivate kids. *Abby 7/13*
Adele Mestas' Contributions:
Week 1-
~This PBS based program is great, kids eat it up. The corresponding PBS teachers guide found at http://www.pbs.org/teachers/connect/resources/7431/preview/ includes many inclusive lesson plans & guides which are hands on with differing levels of participation so all students no matter what math level or physical ability level can participate fully in the project. All input is crucial to the outcome so every student feels important and participates and learns from the activity. Also there is a parent guide with corresponding activities that students can do at home. (Adele)
~This site actually covers a chapter in the "Collaborative Teaching" text, Special Education for inclusive classrooms. It is a bit tedious in the beginning but has great ideas that are broken down step by step. I found the 'Assistive Devises' and the 'Teacher controlled Variable' sections very helpful. (Adele)
~This site provided by the Schultz Center for Teaching and leadership has video clips that show teachers differing math concept strategies to help students who struggle with the general math steps taught in the majority of classrooms today. For a quick example of a varied math concept take a quick look at the "left to Right Addition Strategy". This concept leaves out the often confusing step of carrying numbers to another column. Once the students have mastered this form of addition they may then be introduced to carrying. This is just one of the many concepts demonstrated to help struggling math students. Not all of our brains work the same. =0) (Adele)
Week 2-
~I found this CNN "House Calls" excerpt after completing my community based learning project. I wanted to know more about Hippotherapy and its effects. It is proving especially helpful with Autistic children. This video is one man's personal experience, the treatment was so beneficial to his son that a movie and a book have been written in favor of using this form of therapy. The very end of the video is especially interesting as it details the explicit functions that have been scientifically proven to help children through the use of equine therapy. (Adele)
~This is actually more for high school students but is a great interactive/techno based web site that basically is a pool for "how-to" web sites for kids to help them "do" math problems, just read about them, and watch demonstrations, they actually do the math with step by step prompts. Where was all of this when I was taking math!!???? (Adele)
~I found this article interesting because it is not in favor of Inclusion for Deaf students; it is very opposed and is written by parents and teachers of deaf students, and deaf students themselves. It is very enlightening to see another side of the issue and why possibly, in some situations, inclusion is not always the best situation for a student with special needs. (Adele)
Week 3-
~This is a great brief 11 step guide to help teachers incorporate diversity into their elementary classroom. Quick to read with great ideas to open and expand children's minds. Enjoy. (Adele M. 7/05/11)
~Ok, I haven't added a "feel good" video yet and this one was GREAT! So please take a few moments to watch this video read the message that is actually from the U.K. in regards to their "Red Kite" learning program based on helping students succeed with job skills and placement training. Gotta love an English accent. Enjoy
(Adele M. 7-05-11)
~This is a great video that covers the basics of special education inclusion in not only the classroom but the whole school as well. It is narrated by the school principle who believes that inclusion benefits all students. Enjoy (Adele Mestas 7-5-11)
Week 4-
This is a segment from one of the greatest motivational movies of all time!! A movie that would be great to show to your entire class, in upper elementary, middle and high school. I am actually adding this blip as a motivational piece for my next piece on motivating students. We can't forget that teachers need motivation just as much as our students do!
Some students seem naturally enthusiastic about learning, but many need-or expect-their instructors to inspire, challenge, and stimulate them: "Effective learning in the classroom depends on the teacher's ability ... to maintain the interest that brought students to the course in the first place" (Ericksen, 1978, p. 3). Whatever level of motivation your students bring to the classroom will be transformed, for better or worse, by what happens in that classroom. So read this, absorb this, and help stimulate and motivate your students!
This project was created to inspire teachers to use technology in engaging ways to help students develop higher level thinking skills. Equally important, it serves to motivate district level leaders to provide teachers with the tools and training to do so. I think this video ties both motivation and technology together and brings our current clash with technology and the classroom into perspective. This is an issue that we as educators cannot ignore.
Catherine Russell's Contributions:
Week 1-
~This video uses a Billy Joel song to demonstrate the traits of inclusion for the classroom.
~Subtracting with pirates, a fun song to use as a math tool that demonstrates subtraction and its terms. Students will learn how to subtract by learning a catchy song.
~This is a video that models a book that uses poetry and numbers to demonstrate addition. It is a great early elementary resource to integrate literacy with mathematics through visual and audio learning.
Week 2-
~This math song explains how I felt about math. Well maybe I should reword that, it explains how I still feel about math. What I liked about this song is that it included students that have other talents instead of math. Working in a math classroom last year there were students who struggled in math, but they had other talents such as music and writing. For them to be able to share these talents in a creative way about a math subject would boost their morale and demonstrate their strengths. I could see where this would be a great tool where students could create a song or poem that would help them to become familiar with a concept and in turn help them to feel more comfortable with math. (Catherine Russell, June 23, 2011)
Five actions for the Inclusive Classroom
~Teachers identified five actions that are critical to teaching meaningful mathematics to students with disabilities in inclusive settings. These actions are:
- Build an inclusive mathematics community based on learning standards-based mathematics
- Make the mathematics explicit
- Expect and support students to work independently and take responsibility
- Link assessment and teaching
- Promote collaboration between special education and classroom teachers ~Catherine (June 28, 2011)
Motivation for Mathematics Students
~While searching and trying to find information about inclusion in the math class I found this site, "Methods to motivate mathematics students." One of the biggest challenges that I have seen in inclusive math classes was the ability to keep the students engaged in learning. This site has great ideas and also links to reference sites that continue the information process. This site contains a vast amount of subject strategies for the educator and parent.~ Catherine (June 28, 2011)
Week 3-
Math inclusion
~Council for Exceptional Children the Voice and Vision of Special Education:
This article explains the changes that education is making for inclusion. The future teachers may need to rethink their entire approach to teaching mathematics placing more emphasis on understanding the basic principles of mathematics, and making the subject accessible and meaningful to students.

Difficulties with Mathematics
~Math disabilities can arise at nearly any stage of a child's development. While very little is known about their causes many experts attribute them to deficits in one or more of five different skill types.
Deficits in…..output, organizational, language, visual spatial or ordering, multiple tasks. These deficits alone or together can impact the student's progress in mathematics. This site has videos that help you to understand what it feels like to have a deficit.(Catherine. June, 29, 2011)
~While looking through youtube to find something that a class could do to memorize and learn math I found a great video done by a math class. Having students learn the terms for math a producing a song would be a great benefit to all. (Catherine, June 29, 2011)
Week 4-
~Disabilities, Teaching Strategies and Resources. This site includes accommodations and inclusion strategies for students with disabilities. It contains eight types of disabilities and over 600 teaching strategies.~ Catherine Russell
~Special Education students use fantasy sports to learn math strategies. I feel that you use what works and what interests the students.~ Catherine Russell
~Everybody needs to have a chance to smile. This is one cute video. I have noticed throughout my research that there is a lot of extra credit work that is being done in the form of music videos. ~ Catherine Russell
Linda Weatherford's Contributions:
Week 1-
~This is a great video that models effective team teaching and some Math and English inclusion strategies. The teachers incorporate math into daily activities, and integrate a lot of movement, dance and song into their routines. This video is practical and can be generalized into all educational environments.
http://www.mathplayground.com/index.html~FUN, FUN, FUN! Every student in the 21st century likes to use technology and games in their learning. It allows teachers to supplement routines with interactive activities and practice. This website has a tone of math games, visual problems, manipulatives, games, real life applications, worksheets, and tons of printables!
http://www.suite101.com/content/how-to-teach-students-with-a-math-disability-a78621~ If one is looking for a clear jumping off point or summary of math disabilities, this website was a quick read but quite relevant. It identifies a specific math disability (dyscalculia) and also provides a brief overview of some inclusion strategies that can be implemented with or without an IEP.
Week 2-
~This video demonstrates the line method for multiplication. This looks like a great strategy for visual learners, or children who like to doodle while they work. This method is unlike anything traditionally taught in schools, but for those who have failed at these traditional methods I think this is great!!! (L.A.W. 6/25/2011)
~As I was reading about Visual Impairments, I was curious what accommodations in mathematics would look like. How can you teach a person who is blind critical math concepts? This video focuses on a program implemented in the Philippines to educate the blind, and it includes a few student reviews. Throughout the video, you can see several methods and tools used to teach number and geometry concepts to those who have visual impairments. (L.A.W. 6/25/2011)
http://realworldmath.org/Real_World_Math/RealWorldMath.org.html~This is a cool site I came across as I was looking for resources to use project based learning (PBL) in mathematics. The content on this website is more aimed at high school, and it has some great ideas using Google Earth and real-world connections. PBL is a great strategy for all learners as it is a collaboration of skills to complete a common goal. This will allow support for those who need it, and the freedom to delve deeper for those who are able to. Any time we make things relevant, life-long learning has a chance to occur. (L.A.W. 6/25/2011)
Week 3-
~This is a cool site I found that offers some limited resources, but plenty of information, about using geographic information systems (i.e. weather, GPS) to bring mathematics to a higher level of relevancy while incorporating geography and science skills. Students use maps to record data, work word problems, and make predictions. (L.A.W. 7/05/11)
~This is a neat site from Edutopia that explains and provides insight as to how one can use project-based learning to learn mathematics skills in a highly relevant way. They provide a few sample examples, and they have some really great links to other PBL based information. (L.A.W. 7/05/11)
~WOW! This is a site dedicated to teacher Mathematics for English Language Learners. It has many useful resources, but I especially love the printout of 90 common math terms with Spanish translation (including pronunciation!). The site has videos, and it is designed and hosted by Texas State University. (L.A.W. 7/05/11)
Week 4-
~I found this page with links to several various disability action and advocacy groups in Southern Oregon. Great resource to refer to when we need to find help!
A Peek into What Paraprofessionals Do in Inclusive Classrooms
View more presentations from National Resource Center for Paraprofessionals
~I liked this slideshow because it actually clarifies the roles and responsibilities of the paraprofessional in the classroom. It serves to inform future teachers of what to expect, and how to work with them in their own classrooms.
~This is a wonderful idea to encourage family involvement in the mathematics subject. This is such an anxiety ridden area that any little thing we can do to help parents support their kids throughout all areas of academics can only serve to strengthen their efficacy.
Lorie Rainey's Contributions:
Week 1-
~This is a great site. It has many articles that give tips and strategies for teaching students with special needs. It goes through some of the different learning issues that you may encounter as a teacher and gives strategies for working with each student's needs. ~Lorie
~Explore their library of fun online activities that help to make math come alive in the classroom.
~Here is a link to a short article about the video posted below. This school has integrated mathematics into every area of the curriculum. They make math relevant and fun. ~Lorie
Week 2-
http://www.mathwire.com/strategies/is.html~This is a great site with mathematics instructional strategies. It also has classroom management strategies, cooperative learning, and differentiation. ~Lorie
http://www.k8accesscenter.org/training_resources/math.asp~This is a wonderful site from The Access Center , which is funded by the US Department of Education. It is filled with articles, links, presentations, and webinars all designed for teachers to obtain helpful math resources relating to students with disabilities. The title of the webinar is "Making Mathematics Meaningful for Students with Learning Problems: Powerful Teaching Strategies that Work". That is just one of the many great resources on this link. Another information brief is titled "Learner Accommodations and Instructional Modifications for Students with Learning Disabilities". Great site!!! ~Lorie
http://www.unl.edu/csi/math.shtml~There are several articles that discuss the cognitive strategy instruction used to teach students with special needs on this site from the University of Nebraska . Each article discusses a different method and strategy for teaching mathematics. ~Lorie
Week 3-
~This is the website for the National Council for Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). There are lots of resources, lessons, tips, etc for teaching mathematics. this link will go to tips for differentiating learning. there is a lot of great information for teaching mathematics here. ~Lorie 7/4

A robber who threatens to detonate a bomb can be convicted of a first-degree crime even if no explosives are actually found, the New Jersey Supreme Court ruled Monday.
Ruling in two separate cases, the high court made bomb threats a more serious level of criminal offense and found that a menacing remark mentioning the devices during a robbery constitutes sufficient evidence of an immediate threat.
"A robber does not have to pat his chest or shoe to reinforce the impression that he is carrying a bomb. Such a gesture is simply superfluous," the court said in unanimous rulings.

Million Hearts Launches Annual Blood Pressure Control Challenge »
"The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services today launched an annual challenge designed to identify and honor clinicians and health care teams that have helped their patients control high blood pressure and prevent heart attacks and strokes."...
Read the Million Hearts Launches Annual Blood Pressure Control Challenge article »
Only a few cases of human overdose with amlodipine have been reported. One patient was asymptomatic after a 250 mg ingestion; another, who combined 70 mg of amlodipine with an unknown large quantity of a benzodiazepine, developed refractory shock and died.
Human overdoses with any combination of amlodipine and benazepril have not been reported. In scattered reports of human overdoses with benazepril and other ACE inhibitors, there are no reports of death.
Patients should be admitted to hospital and, generally, should be managed in an intensive care setting, with continuous monitoring of cardiac function, blood gases, and blood biochemistry. Emergency supportive measures such as artificial ventilation or cardiac pacing should be instituted if appropriate.
In the event of a potentially life-threatening oral overdose, use induction of vomiting or gastric lavage and/or activated charcoal to remove the drug from the gastrointestinal tract (only if presented within 1 hour after ingestion of Lotrel).
Other clinical manifestations of overdose should be managed symptomatically based on modern methods of intensive care.
To obtain up-to-date information about the treatment of overdose, a good resource is your certified Regional Poison-Control Center. Telephone numbers of certified poison-control centers are listed in the Physicians' Desk Reference (PDR). In managing overdose, consider the possibilities of multiple-drug overdoses, drug-drug interactions, and unusual drug kinetics in your patient.
The most likely effect of overdose with Lotrel is vasodilation, with consequent hypotension and tachycardia. Simple repletion of central fluid volume (Trendelenburg positioning, infusion of crystalloids) may be sufficient therapy, but pressor agents (norepinephrine or high-dose dopamine) may be required. With abrupt return of peripheral vascular tone, overdoses of other dihydropyridine calcium channel blockers have sometimes progressed to pulmonary edema, and patients must be monitored for this complication.
Analyses of bodily fluids for concentrations of amlodipine, benazepril, or their metabolites are not widely available. Such analyses are, in any event, not known to be of value in therapy or prognosis.
No data are available to suggest physiologic maneuvers (e.g., maneuvers to change the pH of the urine) that might accelerate elimination of amlodipine, benazepril, or their metabolites. Benazeprilat is only slightly dialyzable; attempted clearance of amlodipine by hemodialysis or hemo-perfusion has not been reported, but amlodipine's high protein binding makes it unlikely that these interventions will be of value.
Angiotensin II could presumably serve as a specific antagonist-antidote to benazepril, but angiotensin II is essentially unavailable outside of scattered research laboratories.
- Do not coadminister aliskiren with angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), ACE inhibitors, including Lotrel in patients with diabetes.
- Lotrel is contraindicated in patients with a history of angioedema, with or without previous ACE inhibitor treatment, or patients who are hypersensitive to benazepril, to any other ACE inhibitor, to amlodipine, or to any of the excipients of Lotrel.

The value of an education: Spiraling college costs and student debt spark doubts over payoffs
The value spectrum
Lost in the din over the new gainful-employment regulations, wrote Doug Lederman at Inside Higher Ed, was that the Department of Education "has written into federal policy for the first time a direct (if crude) attempt to measure the value of an academic program, by linking a measure of student expenditure (student loan debt burden) with an outcome measure (graduates' average income)."
This approach to evaluating post-secondary education should bring into relief a broad spectrum of educational needs and economic gains, experts say. For privileged students, social skills and family connections may help absorb even high student debt acquired at an elite university, said Fabio Rojas, a sociologist at Indiana University, "but once you go down the spectrum, the risk-benefit calculation gets out of whack."
According to Rojas, a working-class kid who wants to be an electrical engineer should not justify a high debt load at a private university since an electrical engineer's pay is not extraordinary and a cheaper state school would likely produce the same results.
Rojas believes the value of for-profit schools varies, but he sees some as mainly in the game of processing student aid for profit without providing results. He is speaking of students who actually do complete their programs, but the non-completion challenge is equally controversial. Of those who entered a four-year bachelor's program in 2002, 57 percent completed their program, according to the Department of Education. Broken down into the three key sectors, 55 percent of students at public universities complete their degrees, as do 65 percent of students at private nonprofit colleges, but the figure is only 22 percent at for-profit colleges.
Defenders of for-profit colleges argue that their statistics are poor because they are serving low-income and at-risk students, many of whom are not well prepared. Critics respond that preparation needs to improve at the high school level but that mainstream public and nonprofit universities also need to do more to recruit and support promising at-risk students.
The 78 percent who begin four-year programs at for-profit colleges but do not finish are saddled with debt. This is also true of students who complete programs but do not find work in their chosen field, and those who do find work that doesn't pay well enough to justify the debt.
"You want a certificate, so you take out loans and go to school," Rojas said. "But are you going to start making enough extra to compensate? The answer is often no, even if they were giving good training. And many aren't."
Finding the right ratio
Darrell Sheperd could be Exhibit A for Rojas. After spending 20 years in Arizona and Utah doing construction, Sheperd built a successful construction business with respectable earnings before the 2008 crash. When construction ground to a halt and his income evaporated, Sheperd turned to Stevens Heneger, a local for-profit college, hoping to become a registered nurse to adequately support his family.
Instead, he found that after $23,000 of debt and two years of schooling, he could not complete his nursing degree because the school did not offer a nearby program, and he could not transfer his credits to a local state university because Stevens Heneger was not regionally accredited. He is now working as a lab technician, earning $12 an hour.
"If I had known (about the accreditation issue), and if I had known that other schools were offering the same program for half the price, I would have arranged my schedule to go to the local state school," Sheperd said.
He is now in survival mode trying to support a large family of adopted children, and he has not been keeping current on his loan payments.

|Some requests... ApacheCon and OpenOffice
|Fri, 27 Jul 2012 16:44:31 GMT
The ApacheCon CFP closes on Aug 3rd. I'd like to float some ideas for sessions that I would love to see there. I'm not equipped to deliver sessions on AOO so I'm pitching them here in case someone wants to submit them. If I am interested then maybe others are too. First off, here's some info about the OpenOffice conference-within-a-conference: https://blogs.apache.org/OOo/entry/apache_openoffice_conference_within_a The CFP is at http://www.apachecon.eu/cfp/ Note that there is travel assistance available to those who would be otherwise unable to attend. There is no guarantee of getting assistance as it is evaluated on a needs basis, but if your employer can't pay for your expenses you might want to consider applying for TAC, see http://www.apache.org/travel/ When I go to conferences I personally prefer sessions that are less about presentation and more about engaging with one another. So I'd love to see some sessions aimed at cross-project collaboration. One of the great things about Apache is the breadth of projects we have here. Cross-pollination is often valuable. Sessions designed to do this tend to be small, probably 2-5 people per project. The goal would be to explore the potential for collaboration between projects. Unfortunately, as I write we are not sure of how flexible the venue is in terms of space use (there is a site visit tomorrow) but we might be able to accomodate some intimate sessions like these. I'm hoping that we can create some smaller spaces to allow this kind of session to work. What we need is someone to own them. That means touch base with the projects in question and check someone will be there and then propose the session in the CFP. That someone will also need coordinate preparations and chair the sessions on the day. An example session (which is completely made up as an example I don't know if there is genuine value in this, but I'd like to explore it...) "OpenSocial implementations, such as Apache Shindig, open opportunities to share mini-applications across various platforms. If Apache OpenOffice were to embed Shindig services then it could provide social integration features such as messaging, collaborative research and expertise discovery. Such social applications could be integrated with document content and meta-data to provide automated cross-pollination opportunities (e.g. an activity stream that indicates Jane is working on a document that has some similar content to Joe's). Furthermore, by enabling such features using OpenSocial it becomes possible to extend AOO UI features into other applications that act as a host, such as dashboards built using Apache Rave or document management systems. Similar results can be achieved by adopting the W3C Widget packaging standards as implemented by Apache Wookie, also used in Rave. In this session we'll start with demonstrating the potential of some of these core technologies. The second half of the session will explore, in an interactive style, use-cases and opportunities for collaboration between projects represented by members of the audience. This session is therefore intended for developers familiar with social technologies and users who wished their office tools could integrate better with more recently developerd collaboration tools," This would be a session for around 6-15 people. It might well lead to a subsequent hackathon session in which some proof-of-concepts are built (as it happens this is exactly what happened at OSCON when we got an Alfresco guy together with a Rave guy) I could imagine there being potential for a number of such sessions (CMIS, Semantic data and content searching all jump to mind for example). Pick your favourite topic, touch base with the appropriate project communities and send in a CFP. Sessions like these take much less time to prepare than full blown presentation and, personally, I find them more rewarding. I'd also love to see something on the A11Y opportunities with AOO4, thanks to the IA2 work in Symphony. As I understand it this is a non-trivial integration effort. This might be a great opportunity to build some momentum in something that typically attracts only a few developers. Such a session might spend as much time on *why* this is important in the general sense since most developers don't understand it beyond the moral justification of doing the right thing. For example, how many people here know that "Around 10 per cent of the world's population, or 650 million people, live with a disability. They are the world's largest minority." - http://www.un.org/disabilities/convention/facts.shtml) It would also be great if someone could look back at the community history of OOo -> AOO (Juergen a little bird told me you are well placed for this...) I'm not talking about looking at what went wrong in late Sun and Oracle days. That's old news, combatative and boring. I'm interested in hearing (from an old hand) what made OOo a success in the early days. How it managed to become so popular. I'd then like to hear what is good about the ASF, does it bring any of the good times aspects back? Are there good aspects you'd like to bring back? I'd like to think that such a presentation would have just one slide covering the "bad stuff" - something that just said "some things weren't so good - this led to a forking of the community" - AOO is one of the outcomes from that forking and we're doing great thank you - partly because the ASF has brought us... My last request (for today at least) is for someone to run a session on setting up a dev environment for AOO. Ideally this will go from a fresh Windows install in a VM to building AOO in its entirety. Furthermore it would be best for someone else to record this session using a screen recorder and later turn it into a online resource. I hope others can take the time to post their requests here and just as importantly, some nice developers submit the sessions for us ;-) -- Ross Gardler (@rgardler) Programme Leader (Open Development) OpenDirective http://opendirective.com

62 reviews | 4 out of 5
I have been waiting for a repair visit to be scheduled since I bought the machine 2 weeks ago. The customer service reps at Schwiin/Nautilus are nice, but the company's followup is poor. It's possible the machine will work great once it's fixed, so I can't speak to the mechanics. However, I can say the display on the console is not what's pictured on most websites. The readout is dim and hard to read. There is no backlight like you think from the pictures. As a result, you will likely need to provide your own timer for workouts and you can forget following the various programs in machine. I must say I expected more from Schwinn.
I have had my elliptical for about a month now and so far no real issues. You need to be at least 6 ft. tall to feel the Fan, but I know other reviewers have already addressed this issue, just wanted to confirm that it is true. It's also true that the screen does not have a back light or LCD screen so it can be hard to read at night even with a light on. I have no problems seeing the screen when it's daylight and I've purchased a cheap book light that clips onto the book shelf/holder and shines down perfectly onto the screen. But with all that said, this machine does work properly and is quiet and I love it! You need 2 ppl 2 put it together and it does take a few hrs., but it's not that bad. The weight limit is 300lbs. Very good buy for the money spent!
I purchased my Schwinn 420 Eliptical in Jan. 2011
I had it delivered site to store and Wal-Mart put it together.
At first I thought there was a problem , But it turned out just to be one
loose nut.
Once I got that tight it worked fine.
I have had it now for one year -- 195 workouts --- 36 Hours --- 361 miles
38,957 calories burned.
It is quiet, and it has worked just fine for me.
Thought the product was okay when I first purchased. Mostly good reviews. I haven't even owned this a year and wish I hadn't purchased. Let me preface this review by saying that the customer service @ Nautalis is great. That's good because I have had to call 5 times in less than a year. Elliptical constantly has a squeak in the wheel. I have had two parts replaced. When the technician leaves all is well. Within two weeks it is back. I understand this is not a high end piece of equipment, but @ $500 it was cheap either. Customer service would like me to try and fix myself or have a neighbor or family come over to do it. Again I have owned this LESS than one year. Every time I call I get a different solution. My brother purchased the same elliptical and has the same problems so I know it is not just me. My advise would be to take the $500 and join one of the gyms that offer the $10 a month membership and use their elliptical. Save yourself the headache (the squeak is really loud).
first the good. Well made steel construction, smooth and quiet glide. Large size, looks and feels like something in a gym. Two hours to assemble is not bad considering the amount of parts.
They have added a fan and an MP3 connection with ipad holder and water bottle holder that was not on the previous version.
Price is good on first look...but.
Now the bad. No way to adjust machine for size of user. If you are under 5' 9" this machine will be a stretch for you to feel comfortable on.
The info panel, fan and ipod holder face upward, about 45 degrees, unless you are 6' 4" you will not feel the fan or see the info screen and seeing your ipad or magazine is out of the question.
The info screen is not lit or LED so it is useless and way too small, they made it smaller than previous models to incorporate the other features. Unless you have super perfect eyesite there is no way to see or read this thing. Fan is small and weak even on full speed.
I called Swinn and asked about updates and maybe recalls and they said they have no complaints or plans for changes at the moment. If they made the machine slightly adjustable and put the info console on a goose neck that could move up or down this would be an excellent buy.
The info readout must be changed to LED or something brighter before it will be usable to less than perfect eyesite users.It is virtually useless to us and we now just use the machine without any of the built in features such as heart rate and exercise programs because we can't see them.
The screen is tiny and has tons of info(I think) but not viewable. Swinn. MAKE THE SCREEN LARGER, keep the fan but put it some place else.
I guess I should have bought a more expensive unit, this is all I could afford to spend.
Sorry for the long review but it needs to be told.
This is a good elliptical. Everyone in my family is using it (including 2 teenagers). One problem is that only one users information can be stored so everyone else has to use the guest user profile. Assembling was long(4 hr) and somewhat difficult.
The fan us useless, you can't even feel it on your face -
The digitial display can be difficult to read -
The heart rate monitor doesn't seem to work - Other than that, this this is excellent - was easy to assemble, is solid, and provides an excellent workout for me and my wife
Great machine! Smooth and quiet. The console is horrible!... 1. Very hard to see display (no back light, small fonts, have to look on an angle to see) 2. The fan is 100% worthless! 3. The speakers for the iPod/mp3 are not amplified, extremely quiet. We knew from other reviews that the console was not the greatest so we purchased it anyway because the reviews said the machine itself was awesome, which it is.
We purchased this unit while it was on sale. It is VERY heavy duty. I've used it 5 days a week for 3 weeks now and not had any problems with it at all. It moves smoothly and it is very quiet. I read the reviews from others about the display being small and hard to read but I don't have a problem with it. I do however agree that the fan is quite worthless and you can't even tell it's on. The heart rate monitor works, but you have to give it about 30 seconds to pick up your heart rate. The machine itself is quite tall and takes up a pretty good chunk of space. It is very heavy and took my husband about 2 hours to put together. I feel it was definitely a good purchase and I'm very happy with it.
The trainer was delivered to the Walmart store selected sooner than promised. The staff was helpful and efficient when I picked it up. Assembly took almost three hours for one person, but I recommend it be done by two people, as everything is heavy. Be sure not to over-tighten bolts on moving parts. It is quite sturdy and quiet. However, the display output is extremely small and weak, making it very difficult to read. I have asked Schwinn about an upgrade to a better display but have not yet received a reply.
After much research my husband and I settled on this model as it was rated highest by Consumer Reports. They did sell it at our local Dunham's store but it was over $100 more there.
After ordering online and having it sent to our local WalMart it came relatively quickly. Assembly is time-consuming - be very careful to read the directions thoroughly as you assemble. It definately helps to have 2 people to put it together. It is very heavy to move and you have to pick up the back high before you call roll it on the wheels to where you want to have it situated.
The easiest setting was strenous excercise but with practice it will become easier to use. The fan does not give alot of air - needs improvement. Hard to read screen in low light as well.
I got this ellitptical (plus a gym mat) for $476 including tax at Walmart online. A great deal. As I had bad experiences with shipping products from Walmart online to my home, I shipped it to the nearest store for free. It arrived fast and without damage. You do need help to carry the whole package once at home, it is too heavy otherwise (169 pounds). Either that or open the box and carry one component at a time. I am a medium built woman and was able to assemble it on my own. It took a good 3 hours but the instructions were very clear. One of the best instructions I have followed in years. The pieces are sturdy and solid. Screws aligned perfectly. Nothing went wrong. I did follow the advice I read in some reviews to use any grease left out in bags with pre-greased pieces to lubricate the inside of the female components of the mobile junctions. This makes sure there is no noise at the joints. My machine was very quiet during operation, so I imagine it helped. The elliptical itself had great reviews and although I have been using it for only 2 days, it is a great workout and a smooth ride. Only complaint is that the console is quite cheap. The fan is useless (too high on the console to reach my face, although I am 5' 7"), the book holder is even higher to be able to read anything, and the LED screen is small and dark, making it difficult to see what is displayed unless you stop working out and get really close to the display. The Schwinn 450 gets a better console plus more pre-programmed workouts, but you pay $700-800 for a machine that is otherwise identical. I compromised on the console quality to save $300, but some customers may prefer to invest more to get a better console. Other than that you cannot beat the quality of the machine for the price.
This machine is a great value for the money. It operates smoothly, has an mp3/iPod plug in. I don't find the lowest level too difficult as some people have stated and I have not worked out in some time prior to buying this. The things I don't like about is the display is way too small. I use it in an area that is not brightly lit and I had to use my reading glasses and a flashlight to see it. Also the book holder is too high, as is the fan. I am 5' 4". I will just set up a fan on the floor if I feel I need one. Overall I like this elliptical and would buy it again
This is a well made strudy elliptical, I gave it four stars. As stated in other reviews, the fan is little and will not cool you off. You might want to purchase other fans and put it beside you when you work out. Otherwise it was easy to put together. It took about two hours. It starts at a resistance 3, if you move it up to 8 and run for 20 minutes you will really feel it. Once you build up your strength, a resistance level of 12 will really wear you out. I haven't made it to level 16 yet. I would recomend this to a friend. I am very happy with this.
The machine has a great strong feel, quiet. It took two hours to put together( the instructions are great)
The display is hard to see, unless you have light coming from the back of you. The fan is useless.
I am really happy with my choice, easy to use programs. Great buy for your money.
Purchased at Walmart.com. Took 3 weeks to be advised unit was available at store for pick up. Was able to fit 3/4. In Camry trunk. Tied down door and drove away Assembly wasn't hard. I assembly unit by my self. I enlargen the assembly instructions and layed pieces out on floor. Solid unit. Took. Approx. 4 hrs to assembly......again by my self. One of the base units was detectives. And held up assembly. Call customer service and they were extremely helpful........and felt bad because of this issue. Replacement parts arrived in 5 days. Over all was extremely pleased with Walmart customer service I took out the 3yr warranty. Plus the Walmart one = 4 yrs in total Only issue is the monitor unit. Very small window. Very hard to see without a flashlight and or unit is in a very well lite room. Solved problem by getting a battery light with goose arm and attached with earth quick clay. I turn light on when I'm using the unit I've been using the unit 4 days a week. For, 3 weeks. No problems. I feel with the all inclusive warranty I set for 4. Years on any repairs needed. Most made of metals. Very little plastics The unit is approx. 63inches long. And doesn't take up that much room
Looked at a lot of reviews on this product and it met all my expectations! Great value! Walmart had the best price for this product!
This is a fantastic machine. It is super quiet, sturdy and high quality. It is a great value for the money. The only drawback is the display. You can read very little because the numbers are soooo small. This could be an improvement, but otherwise great machine. I would rather have a machine that works well. Bought the Gold's Gym 410 or 420 the first time and that was a complete piece of junk, so this is a tremendous upgrade from that.
Bought my machine at Wally World 3/28/13. Set it up the next day, between house work and fone calls it took me an EASY 4 hours to set up, I am mechanically I did not need any help . Directions were ok, the pics could have been a little larger. Been using it now for a couple of days and it is QUIET and smooth. First impressions are good we will see how it is in six months. I even got a cup holder with mine.
Overall, the machine works smoothly and has good resistance levels. The only improvements I would make is to make the handlebars closer in, as it is hard to use them when going backwards, and make the screen bigger and clearer. Also, the fan is pretty useless, so it should either be taken out, or vastly improved. But for the money we spent, it's a great deal.

Click on the competition images to go straight to the competition page, or click here for a more detailed overview at HWBOT.
HWBOT Articles
Revision 7 is designed in response to community feedback with the intent of awarding points more accurately as a reflection of overclocking result quality. The new revision re-balances the weight of benchmark applications and awards points based on result quality relative to the top result.
At the core of the HWBoints concept, invented by Mtzki from Finland, lie two distinct parameters: the weight of a ranking as determined by the amount of participants, and the quality of the result as determined by its position within the ranking. This concept is now being stretched to the end of its scaling capabilities due to two primary reasons: 1) the increase of global and hardware rankings, and 2) the direct submission capability of benchmark applications via our Open API. [...] This conflicts with the overclocking community's desire to have the Overclockers League and submission points reflect the skill and effort required to achieve the position. Revision 7 addresses these concerns.

Although I don't want to make a habit of reporting on the business side of HWBOT, it's good once in a while to share more details on the business side of HWBOT with the community. In last year's HWBOT year overview I summarized some information shared in the XOC Focus Group private sub-forum on how we spend the income. In this article I want to share a bit more detail on how we spent our budget in the first half of this year.
First of all, let's have a look at how we organize our activities. HWBOT's activities center around 4 pillars: Community, Education, Competition and Technology. For each of the four pillars we have one or more activities that we put more or less focus on.

Hello SkatterBenchers. Today we will show you how to overclock this notebook in a minimum amount of steps and time. This is the ASUS ROG GX700 V0 notebook which comes with watercooling as well as a Core i7 6820HK processor, a desktop grade GTX 980 graphics card and 64GB of memory. To do the overclocking we will be using the ROG Gaming Center application and in there we will switch up the Turbo Gear settings. We will be using four different benchmarks in the operating system to measure the performance; Intel XTU, ROG Realbench, F1 2014 and 3DMark Fire Strike Extreme. Note: Today will be a little bit different than our other SkatterBencher videos because we can't really change that much manually.
As a final step of our overclocking adventure, we will switch to manual mode. We increased the CPU frequency to 4.0 GHz, we increased the CPU cache frequency to 4GHz. We enabled XMP and then we also increased the GPU core frequency by 200MHz as well as the GPU memory frequency by 300MHz as well. In a final round of benchmarking we find that the XTU performance has gone up to 1,271 points which is 18% over stock performance. In Fire Strike Extreme we see that our performance went up to 6,665 points which almost 40% over stock performance - this is thanks to the 1,427MHz GPU frequency and 3.8GHz memory frequency. In F1 2014 our minimum FPS has gone up to 71, which is 20% over stock performance and in ROG Realbench we now have a score 103,741 points, 23% over stock. The CPU temperature under load is 83C and the GPU temperature under load is only 41C.

GIGABYTE have long been involved with the world of Overclocking. The company was an early pioneer when it came to hosting overclocking contests; the inaugural Gigabyte Open Overclocking Championship, or GO OC, took place in September 2008 and involved worldwide qualifying rounds to make it one of the first truly international OC contests. GIGABYTE also developed the first motherboard designed by an overclocker for overclockers with the launch of the X58A-OC board. Designed by OC legend and in-house overclocker HiCookie, the board was a huge hit with extreme overclockers and set the standard for OC specific motherboard design.
Fast forward to Computex 2016 and find GIGABYTE taking a very considered approach to Overclocking that demonstrates that the company still has what it takes to win in the race for ultimate performance. The creation of the GIGABYTE OC Lab at the company's HQ in Taipei provided the ideal space for overclockers to get together and and get down to some seriously extreme overclocking. GIGABYTE is also pioneering the concept of an overclocking invitational event where leading overclockers get the chance to bench alongside in-house overclockers HiCookie and Sofos1990. Dubbed the 'Secret OC', it has provided GIGABYTE with several reasons to be happy.

Today we want to take a look at last week's Computex 2016 event from the context of overclocking, putting memory vendor G.SKILL under the microscope in terms of how the company integrated with overclockers and overclocking during the week-long event here in Taipei, Taiwan.
There is little doubt that G.SKILL has established themselves as the overclockers brand of choice for the last few years, a monumental feat that G.SKILL are keen to maintain in the coming years ahead. How have they arrived in such a lofty position? We had a chance to sit down with Product Marketing Manager Frank Hung, who told us it's all about delivering the best product possible so that enthusiasts and overclockers get the message loud and clear - G.SKILL is No1. for performance in both DDR3 and DDR4 memory.
The connection with overclocking is one that validates these claims. G.SKILL know that there is no better way to demonstrate leadership than by getting overclockers to push their memory kits as hard as possible. World record memory frequencies might get headlines in the media, mainly because simple frequencies are easy to equate and digest - this company's DDR4 can operate stably at higher frequencies than another's - but it's actually a much broader strategy where overclockers know they have G.SKILL in their corner.
