Scarlet-breasted fruiteater
The scarlet-breasted fruiteater (Pipreola frontalis) is a species of bird in the Cotingidae family. It is found in Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forests.
Taxonomy and systematics[edit]
First described by British ornithologist Philip Sclater in 1858,[2] the scarlet-breasted fruiteater is one of eleven species in the genus Pipreola.[3] Its type specimen is held at the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, in Philadelphia.[4] The species is closely related to the fiery-throated fruiteater, but is found at higher elevations.[2] There are two subspecies, which some taxonomists think represent two distinct species.[5]
- P. f. frontalis occurs from central Peru into western Bolivia.
- P. f. squamipectus occurs from northern Ecuador into northwestern Peru. First described by Frank Chapman in 1925,[6] it is smaller and less colorful than the nominate subspecies.
The genus name given to the fruiteaters, Pipreola, is a diminutive of Pipra, which is the genus name Carl Linnaeus gave to the similarly shaped manakins.[7] The specific name frontalis is a Modern Latin word meaning "fronted" or "browed".[8]
Like all Pipreola fruiteaters, the scarlet-breasted fruiteater is a plump, short-tailed cotinga.[9] It is relatively small for a fruiteater, measuring 15.5–16.5 cm (6.0–6.5 in) in length;[5] its mass ranges from 39.5 to 45.3 g (1.4 to 1.6 oz), with an average of 42.4 g (1.5 oz).[10] The species is sexually dimorphic; the male is considerably more colorful than the female.[9] Both sexes have bright green upperparts, with narrow yellow tips to the tertial feathers.[11] The male's throat and upper breast are bright red (less extensively colored in P. f. squamipectus than in P. f. frontalis), while the female's underparts are yellow with green scaling or spots. Its legs and feet are pink or orange.[12]
Distribution and habitat[edit]
The scarlet-breasted fruiteater is restricted to the eastern slope of the Andes from northeastern Ecuador through eastern Peru to central Bolivia.[2] It is found in montane forests at elevations ranging from 900–2,000 m (3,000–6,600 ft) above sea level.[12]
The scarlet-breasted fruiteater is more arboreal than many other members of its genus.[5] Like other fruiteaters, it tends to be rather lethargic.[13]
As its name suggests, the scarlet-breasted fruiteater eats primarily fruit, which it picks while hover-gleaning or, less frequently, while perched.[13]
The scarlet-breasted fruiteater's vocalizations are generally short, high-pitched and infrequent. The song of the P. f. squamipectus male is sharp and ascending, variously transcribed as "psii"[11] or "tsweeet", while the song of the P. f. frontalis male is longer and more complex—a thin, rising trill that becomes a descending whistle, transcribed as "ti'ti'ti'ti'ti'ti'tseeeeeeeeer". Its call is a very high-pitched pseet.[12]
Conservation and threats[edit]
The International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) categorizes the Scarlet-breasted Fruiteater as a species of Least Concern, based on its very large range and its status as a fairly common species within its range. However, its population size has never been quantified, and is thought to be decreasing.[14]

The exact error message is this:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/bobbo123/notesfromtheholler.com/wp-content/themes/mistylook/functions.php on line 295
Unfortunately, I can't print the code because I am unable to do anything on my site without getting that error message.
I've seen other threads with a similar problem, and they all seem to indicate that the site was hacked. While I can't summarily dismiss that possibility, it's important to mention that I was in my functions.php file trying to add custom taxonomies just before this problem began. Just before that, I added a couple plugins, though these were plugins that I use successfully on another site, so I'm thinking it's nothing malicious that came from them.
I've got a call into the person who hosts my site, and I'm hoping he'll have some suggestions on what to do. I'm also hoping someone here might provide some guidance.
I'm a self-hosted site, using the MistyLook theme.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Just saw in another thread a suggestion to use an FTP site to send my site a new functions.php file. I already have Filezilla on my site and am relatively familiar with it via another site I participate on. Is this the direction I need to take?

Parents and students take the time to travel, take tours, read brochures and ask questions to ensure that when their children leave home they will find a place that is safe. Once the college is selected, then off they go trying to find this perfect place to stay. Their first home away from home where they can feel comfortable, safe, happy. A place where they do not have to worry about their daily safety. When the parents choose an apt, the last thing anyone wants to worry about is their child's safety.
Unfortunately, it is not always this simple. Sadly, these so called housing for students are often painted and portrayed as these glorious buildings designed for today's students. Modern structures where your son or daughter will have a home away from home. When you take the tours, ask the questions and enter into contract with them, they portray these apartments as a home away from home. A safe heaven where your child can learn and live without worries. You make your selection and then, the lease is signed, they take your money and assure you that your children will be safe and in good hands. That these apartments have security patrolling the area and your child's safety is their number one concern. They are sure to let you know that you have made the right decision. Well, think again because this is not always true.
If you really believe that, then as a parent, I will tell you that you might find yourself in a bad situation. As a matter of fact, once you enter into a lease, the last thing they care about is your child, their safety or any other concerns you might have that might affect them losing money.
By going to the website, they try to sell you on the "picture perfect location for your child. They are described at "the modern upscale apts"..."a place where in big letters they tell you what their mission statement is.. "To do right - by our residents...". Interesting enough though, when one of these residents has had problems with safety threats...and when one of these residents has had to call the police on several occasions and when one of these residents lets main office know..hey, there is a problem..., then you find out that what they said and what they are willing to do are very different.
When you feel your life has been threatened and you call the courtesy officer and the officer assigned does not show up..you then have to call the Greensboro PD who has had to come in and handle the situation. Not once, not twice but over 4 times. When other students then harass you because you dared to call the PD, when this harassment continues and nothing is done then you take the next step and call home office.
Well, their answer is "the security police is there as a courtesy, they are not required to respond to your calls"...really? So when you "sell me your business, and tell me my child will be safe..then, was that a lie? Home office's response is that even if the student feels a threat..even if the student's property has been broken into, destroyed, their lives threatened, what they can do is move your child to another place..the tell you that the safety of the student "WAS NEVER GUARANTEED". Do you really wish to have your child placed in that situation?
By letting them move into Sterling Cottage at West End, that is exactly what you will get. These people are interested in the money they will lose if you wish to get out of that environment. Their idea of "doing right by residents" should have a few extra words attached.."as long as we do not lose any money in the process".
I know your child's safety and well being is important. I implore you to think about it twice before you send your children to stay at Sterling Cottage at West End. Call home office and ask them "if my child has a problem where they feel their life is at risk..and if they wish to leave because they are harassed in one way or another, and if several calls have been made to the police to make them aware of this ongoing situation, will you help? What will you do? Do you have a problem if we request our lease to be terminated? Go ahead, call them. Ask them..and then, make a decision. To do right by your residents means "to protect them, to ensure that rules are followed, that people are not harassed or bullied". I would love to hear what they have to say.
As for me, I will make sure that every parent that is trying to find a good place for their children knows what Sterling Cottage at West End is all about and hope they stay as far away from Sterling Cottage at West End as possible.

"I didn't know I was injured until I began to feel the pain, and looked down at my leg and it was twisted at a crazy angle and my knee looked like it was stacked with a lot of knee caps, ... The pain was unbelievable."
"I learned to give, not because I have much. But because I know exactly how it feels to have nothing."
"I finally understand a little bit more of why Gods allows pain in this life. Maybe He tries to get us to understand that our home is not in this life, but that our TRUE life begins with Him, in Heaven."
"The main motive for ''nonattachment'' is a desire to escape from the pain of living, and above all from love, which, sexual or non-sexual, is hard work."
"I believe that pain keeps us pure, and sadness keeps us human. Sometimes the pain that you feel feels like agony, but another part of you tells you to keep goin' on, and you know you don't want to give up, and you just keep on to the end. Besides, those who put you down are actually the ones who are lower than you are."
"I realized that when you want to be with someone, never have expectations. It almost always cause a lot of misunderstandings and complicated pain. Perhaps it may just turn to be an unrequited love. And that's what sets you up for no good. Unless, you lead a life you ought to live."

The hope for Iowa was that a deep and talented defensive line would help mask its inexperience at linebacker and in the secondary.
A line can only do so much.
The back end of the Hawkeyes defense was exposed in last weekend's 31-23 win over FCS rival Northern Iowa.
Quarterback Sawyer Kollmorgen threw for 380 yards, and nearly half of that total came on three short throws to running back David Johnson over the middle.
Iowa (1-0) knows it'll have to get those glaring mistakes corrected this week as it prepares to host Ball State (1-0) on Saturday.

A TELEMARKETER intrudes into your home via the telephone
AUTHOR: Chris - (U.S.A.)
SUBMITTED: Friday, November 07, 2003POSTED: Friday, November 07, 2003
Prattville, Alabama
In your post, you gave a"quick" summary to the exact abuse that ALOT of folks have been dealt at the hand of Qi-Tel, AON, & the Phone Company/Service Providers.
You said to contact you through the 'Rebuttal Box' in order for us to possibly be able to do something about these fraudulant Co.'s - So I am attempting to do that, though reading the "rules" for using the Rebuttal Box did not seem to 'cover' this kind of response.
I, too, am very interested in trying to get a "strength in numbers" campaign going, and make known the illegalities of these Companies, and finally making someone -- whether it be Qi-tel, AON, or the Phone Company/Service Providers, or all of them to be held accountable for this "fake service" that is #1 Not INITIATED by any of it's "victims. A TELEMARKETER intrudes into your home via the telephone and "offers a free pager and voice mail service for 30 days, stating that you will recieve with your pager a letter for you to sign and return within the 30 days IF YOU WISH TO CONTINUE THE SERVICE"...Then if you do send back in the confirmation letter for the voice mail service, it will be charged to your local phone service provider and appear as a charge of 19.95 + tax ($20.55)each month...#2- after EXPLAINING the above, they ask you to "verify" with their 'supervisor' that "you understand what was just explained to you"(above) and "AGREE to have the pager sent to you and the voice mail service started" & that your call "may be recorded to assure 'quality service'"---#3 - So when the 'superisor' comes on the line the 'Supervisor' asks "did you understand the terms that were just explained to you?" & I answered, "Yes", then he asks, "So, you understand the agreement, and want the Free pager and voicemail service?" & again I answered "yes". THIS IS THE ONLY PART OF THE PHONE CALL THAT IS "RECORDED". #4--NO PAGER or ANY other corespondence is EVER recieved from Qi-Tel or AON -EXCEPT for a CHARGE of $56.55 & $20.55 on the next Phone Bill you recieve after that PHONE CALL, then every month thereafter a CHARGE of $20.55 is charged to your phone bill. #5-When you try to contact Qi-Tel through the # listed on your Phone Bill, it is a recording, stating their 'Business Hours' & to call back during Regular Business Hours---I called back every single hour and 1/2 hour during 3 24 hour periods, and still got the same recording. So my next step was to try and go through AON, #6 - Dealing with AON...From June til August, I tried "working with" AON, I was told that the recording they had "verified" that I had 'agreed' to the terms & the service - therefore I WAS responsible for the charges & HAD to pay them.This went on DAILY from the middle of JUNE til Mid August, when I finally called BELLSOUTH, they 1st reversed the charges for me, & I promptly recieved a letter back from Bellsouth, stating that when they had reversed the charges, they had recieved the information & recording of me "verifying" the afore mentioned 'agreement' and placed the charges BACK on my phone bill. Through various phone calls to AON (which resulted on being hung up on after very RUDE "so-called 'customer-service') & Bellsouth, who basically said there was nothing they could do since AON had a recording of me agreeing to the service. Finally by the Grace of God, I got a Bellsouth Representive that finally informed me of having a "No Third Party Billing" placed on my account(it's free) - so even though she could not do anything about the previous charges, I would not recieve any more charges from them through Bellsouth. So, On & On went the "dealings" (hang-ups) with AON, til today---I called AON-again at this number: 800-892-8424, and my 1st phone call was answered by "Steve" - After explaining EVERYTHING ABOVE -- AGAIN! - He says they have a recording of me agreeing to the service, therefore I am liable for the charges & have to pay them...at which point I BOILED!--I asked him--Could he not Hear--or was he just choosing not to listen to what I said, I asked him did he NOT hear me explain HOW the very 1st phone call was handled, with the part that was"explained to me"(above) by the Telemarketer That CALLED ME was NOT RECORDED--the only part recorded, me answering 2 questions with "yes", that was asked by a second person, the 'supervisor' was the only part recorded, he again stated that I was liable for the charges, when I tried once again to find out if he was deaf or just stupid, he hung up on me. Yes, I was angry (who wouldn't be) and had passed the point of trying to be nice, when I was hung up on then, but it wouldn't have mattered, I had made 200+ other CIVIL phone calls & had been hung up on also. So after he hung up on me--I called the number (800-892-8424) right back - and got "Lucy' operator #528, FINALLY A HUMAN BEING!!! - She did not get ugly, she listened, asked for information in regards to the exact date that I was billed the 1st month and the exact date each month thereafter, I did not have that information, so she said for me to call my Service Provider(Bellsouth) and get the information, so I asked her to hold, & I did the 3-way calling & got Bellsouth on the line, after going through all the "Menus" I got a recrding that my "estimated wait time" was going to be 8 minutes, Lucy said she could not hold that long, but for me to call her back as soon as I got Bellsouth on the line, to tell whichever operator that answered to transfer me to her, so I did -- yes the Phone call between the 3 of us wound up being kind of tedious, with Lucy having to go through each month, asking KATIE(EXCELLANT SERVICE!) at bellsouth to go through each month to find the Exact date that AON charged the accout, then she would have to find it in her records---but FINALLY after getting each date, each charge verified between the two of them, Lucy says, "OK a CREDIT of $179.60 should be on your bill within 30-60 days - this account is closed & no other charges will be billed" PRAISE THE LORD!!! Katie (Bellsouth) asked could she record her verifying that information (turn-about-is-fair play), she agreed, restated the above, Katie posted it on my account, put a hold of some sort on the late charges on my phone bill that I had refused to pay since August (81.78) and said it would not hurt my credit with the phone company...Everybody said "thank you & have a nice day" --- "And we lived happily ever-after" :-) (we'll see)
Even though I have finally possibly gotten some results & resolution to my ATTACK from Qi-Tel & AON (on Qi-Tel's behalf) - It doesn't make it OK that these THIEVES are STILL pulling this SCAM EVERYDAY! On Countless Numbers of Victims & they have got to be stopped!
William, Though your post was quite short, and did not state any specifics, you asks for anybody that wanted to do something to stop these guy's to respond - thus, I have done so--& hope I have provided some info for folks to be able to get some immediate help for themselves. And if they do use the info provided above, and get help I hope that they will all consider getting involved in some way to help shut these scumbuckets down- for good!--We owe it to each other, innocent folks, that just happened to answer the phone in our own homes & basically got robbed, just cause we are decent Humen Beings to not let anybody else have to suffer at the hands of these criminals.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

I KNOW, there's been tons of PT posts but I've run into two "issues" or what have you since starting Friday that I searched and didn't find addressed:
-If you're using diapers for naps and bedtime, how did you explain using for just those times? We made this big production of saying bye bye diapers but he wakes up soaked in the morning. I thought we'd wait on nite time, if not I'd just be setting him up for failure.
-(sorry toddler TMI:) Tho he went poo Friday evening *told me while in the bath and hopped out to use the toilet!!* he hasn't gone since tho passing some serious ghastly gas. BUT it's reallyreallyreally close to becoming a power struggle as in Dad said "sit on the toilet, try to poo" before bath and he adamantly said NONONONONO and I tried gently after bath, saying "all those toots is your tummy and bum telling you you have poo, let's try" but again NONONONO. Peeing is fun for him ~ he loves standing on the stool and making pee bubbles but I think he's holding his poo...ewwww. And owwww! Anybody experience this? Whaddja do? Should I just make him OD on fiber cereal and prune juice tomorrow making it "unholdable"?? Pretty sure he's not constipated- tho not a veggie kid he eats tons of fruits like apples with peel, grapes, strawberries, etc.

ANALYSIS-Spending on cars, homes threatens apparel sales as holidays approach
7:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time Aug 26, 2013
By Jessica Wohl and Phil Wahba
Aug 26 (Reuters) - Even with consumer confidence at a six-year high, retailers ranging from Target Corp toMacy's Inc are competing not only with each other but are also having to adapt to shifting spending patterns. "The problem now is that there is no fashion, and if there is no newness, clothing becomes a commodity," said Patty
Edwards, chief investment officer of Trutina Financial, which sold Nordstrom earlier this year, but owns Michael Kors Holdings Ltd , PVH Corp and Nike Inc . "Beyond a select few, I'd think twice about getting into apparel and retail stocks."
Some of the biggest hedge funds are shifting out of the sector. An analysis of holdings in the most recent quarter of
Many consumers are taking advantage of still-low interest rates, purchasing cars and houses, but at the same time they are holding back on shirts, dresses and shoes, which doesn't bode well for many retailers in the runup to theyear-end holiday season.
"People are putting their money into things that will last," said Jill Puleri, IBM's global industry leader for retail. "If you look at appliances, if you look at jewelry, these are not necessarily small purchases. They're rewarding each other ...
They're putting money where things are more stable." IBM expects U.S. appliance sales to rise 6 percent in the current third quarter, with sales of other home goods up 1.67 percent. For the holiday season, it expects appliance sales to rise 2.13 percent and sales of home goods to rise 1.98 percent, while anticipating the steepest decline, 3.62 percent, in men's apparel.
Sentiment: Strong Sell
There's a huge note coming more specific on JWN. Trouble, watch how quickly things go south for this retailer. Sad but true and the Rack growth story is killing the core business but doing slighty more volume. Margins non rack are getting hammered. Bad timing. This stock has tons of room to the downside. Tons. Enjoy and profit from it.

I am not a Real Estate Broker from your area of interest, but when I see a question like yours, then I always wonder why a Buyer anywhere is not working with an experienced local Realtor, a Buyers Agent, one who will work on behalf and in the very BEST interest of the Buyer, not only finding the properties, showing them, but also getting the Buyers pre-approved by a lender, so that they will buy within their limits and comfort zone, but there are so many details to pay attention to like the various terms of the offer, negotiations with the Seller, earnest moneys, inspection, appraisal issues, walk thru, estimates for repairs, market analysis for a property so that it will be a competitive offer and sooooo much more.
Buyers Agents are usually if the property is listed on the multiple listing services i.e. listed by a real estate company/brokerage paid by the Seller's side at the closing out of the Seller's proceeds, i.e.
the Buyers Agents services are free to you the Buyer, but your commitment and loyalty to one Buyers Agent will be required....
Give this some thought, as the questions you asked are concerned, your Buyers Agent will be able to get you all the answers, and more than that also what the assessments cover, as this is different for each condo, pets allowed or not etc. etc.
DO NOT DO THIS ON YOUR OWN …. FOR YOUR OWN PROTECTION…….

Favourites Mexico, fifth in the six-nation final CONCACAF group with a paltry three points from three matches, have named a 23-man squad for qualifiers against Jamaica, Panama and Costa Rica between June 4 and 11 and the Confederations Cup.
Only the top three in the World Cup qualifying group go through with the fourth-placed team playing off against Oceania winners New Zealand for another berth.
Despite their critical position, the Mexican Football Federation (FMF) made a point of confirming de la Torre in his post last week until the World Cup finals.
FMF president Justino Compean said: "Obviously we're not at ease with three points out of nine but we're with Chepo to the death."
Panama lead the group on five points with Costa Rica, United States and Honduras a point behind. Mexico have been held to 0-0 draws at home by Jamaica and the U.S. and 2-2 away to Honduras.
De la Torre said an extra group of players would prepare for the CONCACAF Gold Cup and he would merge them with some of the players from the present squad for the tournament in the United States in July.
Mexico travel to Brazil for the June 15-30 Confederations Cup in Brazil as Gold Cup holders and will play in Group A with the host nation, Japan and Italy. Group B is made up of world champions Spain, Uruguay, Tahiti and Nigeria.
The squad, which includes six European-based players, play a friendly against Nigeria in Houston on May 31.
Goalkeepers - Jesus Corona (Cruz Azul), Alfredo Talavera (Toluca), Guillermo Ochoa (Ajaccio)
Defenders: Francisco Rodriguez, Diego Reyes (both America), Hiram Mier, Severo Meza (both Monterrey), Jorge Torres Nilo (Tigres UANL), Hector Moreno (Espanyol)
Midfielders: Gerardo Torrado, Pablo Barrera (both Cruz Azul), Jesus Molina (America), Jesus Zavala (Monterrey), Hector Herrera, Angel Reyna (both Pachuca), Carlos Salcido (Tigres UANL), Andres Guardado (Valencia), Javier Aquino (Villarreal)
Forwards: Giovani Dos Santos (Real Mallorca), Raul Jimenez (America), Aldo de Nigris (Monterrey), Oribe Peralta (Santos Laguna), Javier Hernandez (Manchester United)

What do professional forecasters' stock market expectations tell us about herding, information extraction and beauty contests?
We study how professional forecasters form equity market expectations based on a new micro-level dataset which includes rich cross-sectional information about individual characteristics. We focus on testing whether agents rely on the beliefs of others, i.e., consensus expectations, when forming their own forecast. We find strong evidence that the average of all forecasters' beliefs influences an individual's own forecast. This effect is stronger for young and less experienced forecasters as well as forecasters whose pay depends more on performance relative to a benchmark. Further tests indicate that neither information extraction to incorporate dispersed private information, nor herding for reputational reasons can fully explain these results, leaving Keynes' beauty contest argument as a potential candidate for explaining forecaster behavior.

I dont think you can say theyt have the best team in the AL. If they did they wouldnt have lost the division. This isn't last years team. They let all their pitching go, remember? And the one guy they do still have is hurting. I'm not sure any part of Bostons gameis better then Chicagos. Chicagos hit more HRs, (With a less homer friendly ball park). They can also play small ball much better, have more speed, play better defense. And then you get to the pitching side of things and Chicago definately has a better pen and better starters. I can't look at Boston and think of any reason they should be winning. No offense to him, but when your best pitcher is a guy who throws the ball and has no idea where it's going to go, well that's not inspiring.

Add to that the White Sox ain't that bad. They have more HRs then Boston. They have good hitters. Perzynskis good. Konerkos good. Rowands good. Posednik hits well and is very fast. They're just a very good team with a bunch of guys people dont give enough credit to. They had a bad last month, but even as such you dont accidently finish with the best record in the American League. I'm sorry to Red Sox fans, all the guys I work with love Boston, but there simply out matched. And I dont think they have a chance in hell.

It means you actually have to be good to make the playoffs. Sports where they invite half the league are stupid. You won 4 out of 10 games? Ok, you're in....
Redsox are in their pen now. I'd say this is over.

Outside of my window, the third, fourth, and fifth graders are learning a Hebrew folk dance as they prepare for the Michaelmas festival that will be held next Tuesday. There has been a dragon practicing its ability to be menacing, dance music being learned by an orchestra, and shooting stars learning how to run in and out of a spiral.
These moments are special in any community; these places where time is absolutely present, and yet can spill so easily into the past and the future. During the Rose Ceremony, for instance, a senior presents a rose to a first grader; this is a unique moment for both students, and for those who are watching in the audience. But, simultaneously, there is a parallel world of prediction and memory, as the first grader wonders perhaps to whom he will give his rose in twelfth grade? And the twelfth grader remembers who gave a rose to her years before. The entire school community is woven in these threads of past and future, with the strong, bright thread of the present running through.
One day, the shooting stars will be the dragon, and the dragon looks back with nostalgia at the flight of the shooting stars.
The story of Michael and the dragon is one that has lived very strongly in the Waldorf schools since their foundation. The feast day is not one that is widely celebrated – Michaelmas is something that I only came across in Victorian novels – but the symbolism of the story is what draws the interest of the teachers of the school.
In the story that the school is working with in their play, a dragon has come into a community and is causing havoc: eating sheep and burning crops. The people don't know what to do, and ask for help. Michael answers with inspiration, sending heavenly iron down to the people to form weapons to fight the dragon. The nobles confront the dragon and subdue it. It will begin a new employment of helping to grind corn and be useful in the community.
It is easy to imagine the story on a personal level, or even on a community level. What are our dragons? How does this dragon destroy or make difficult what we wish to accomplish in our lives? And what does it mean to not destroy the dragon, but to defeat it, to transform its energy into positive good in our lives?
And there is something about inspiration. Michael does not defeat the dragon, but sends the inspiration and courage to the people to join together and subdue it through their own initiative. Sometimes, when faced with a problem, if we take a moment to ask for help from a friend or colleague, if we step out of the problem for a moment to see it from a different angle, inspiration comes that helps to solve the problem.
The Michaelmas celebration will be at 2:10 this coming Tuesday on the Whitetop. I hope to see you there!

Sheep to Slippers: children make their own beautiful wool slippers
9:00am to 2:00pm
Support your child's creativity through this two-week summer offering! Children will explore the magical nature of wool, our gift from the sheep, as they design and felt their very own wool slippers. Days will be spent washing and carding wool, collecting flowers and cutting vegetables to create dye baths, and observing the transformation of the fibers into a beautiful rainbow of natural hues. Each child will design and fashion an individual pair of felted wool slippers, and by the end of the two weeks everyone will have their own pair, hand-made to fit their own feet.
In addition, there will be ample time for circle, story, and puppet plays, as well as walks along our many acres of beautiful wooded trails and romps through the sprinkler in the play yard.
Children will enjoy healthy organic snacks made at Green Meadow and bring a picnic lunch from home each day.
This offering is led by Early Childhood Educator Nell Rowland and takes place at the Green Meadow Waldorf School Kindergarten Building. For more information or to register, please email Mrs. Rowland at firstname.lastname@example.com. $750 for two-week program, includes snacks and all materials.
Take a look at this video conversation with Stefan Schaefer '89, who made "Even Though the Whole World is Burning", which screens at GMWS on July 15.

This New York Times article, published on May 16, 2015, details how the increasing push towards early academics is well-intentioned, but misguided. Children's potential might actually be hampered in the long run by academic instruction that doesn't match the child's development.
Per the experts, play based learning is the best approach for children under the age of 7 or 8. "Play is often perceived as immature behavior that doesn't achieve anything," says David Whitebread, a psychologist at Cambridge University who has studied the topic for decades. "But it's essential to their development. They need to learn to persevere, to control attention, to control emotions. Kids learn these things through playing."

27 preschoolers and one adult ended up in Dothan emergency rooms Tuesday afternoon.
Their symptoms including nausea, vomiting, and lethargic behavior; have some speculating the possibility of food poisoning.
It happened at Calvary Baptist Church's daycare Tuesday.
The Houston County EMA and the health department are investigating if the kid's lunch, chicken and rice, green beans and a brownie could have caused the sickness.
Calvary Baptist's daycare and pre-school are closed today as a pre-caution.
Officials say the daycare will be re-opened on Thursday.

As the clock was ticking down in KC after an discouraging loss, i said to myself ...its sad that Singletary has to answer all these questions,and is taking so much of the brunt of it. I know it comes with the territory of being the head coach. but it was clear to me that jimmy ray had to go... and he did,
The head coach isnt the one coughing up the football time after time at the most inopportune times...its the players, we hold onto the football and sustain drives/score on a few possessions here and there, were 3-1 and your all kissing mike singletarys ass. Ultimately alex smith holds the biggest keys to our success or failure ( I feel he has been efficient enough, can he just be mistake free when it matters!)
I, as well as mike know that the light is gonna go on soon , and when it does tonight against that portly andy reid and the philadelphia eagles, we are gonna ride the momentum to an nfc west title and all of u snot nosed, peach fuzz on the balls havin teenagers who want to pin it all on the head coach because u dont have a clue can just excuse yourself from the rest of the season because you dont deserve it......period!
I always have and continue to believe in this man and the job he is doing, despite all of the kneejerk naysayers.

The Queen dons 3D glasses for the first Christmas broadcast in 3D
The London 2012 Games were the highlight of a remarkable sporting year, with the nation gripped by the achievements of their athletes in their home Games.
The address, which will be broadcast for the first time in 3D, will focus on sport.
"As London hosted a splendid summer of sport," the Queen will say, "all those who saw the achievement and courage at the Olympic and Paralympic Games were further inspired by the skill, dedication, training and teamwork of our athletes.
"In pursuing their own sporting goals, they gave the rest of us the opportunity to share something of the excitement and drama."
The eventful year for the Royal Family has seen the Queen's Diamond Jubilee celebrations and the announcement of the Duchess of Cambridge's pregnancy.
The broadcast will be shown on television and radio at 15:00 GMT on Christmas Day, and be available online on the Royal Channel on YouTube.

Christy McCann advertised this on both Craigslist and Facebook, and testified that she owned the monitor for at least 3 months. In her usual "nothing is my fault" attitude, she blamed the inaccuracy on her ex boyfriend, claming she never measured it before advertising it and her ex said it was 27 inches.
She dropped the monitor off at the buyer's home, took her money and left within minutes. When the buyer measured the monitor the next day and complained, and asked for his money back, she REFUSED, saying it was not her problem now.
Of course, this went to court. Typically, a judge will not announce the results in court in order to spare the loser embarrassment & huminiation. [continued below]....

Collectable Minifigures Trading List
Posted 04 January 2010 - 12:54 AM
(sorry if I spell the names wrong since it's been a while since I read any of the books.)
4736 Dobbys Release
Harry potter, Lucious Malfoy, and Dobby (well of course ). Probably very much like the original set.
4737 Quidditch Lesson
Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, Madame hooch (whatever it is.), and Nevile Longbottom.
4738 Hagrids Hut
Harry, Ron, Hermione, Hagrid, and probably either buckbeak or Norbert.
4840 The Burrows
Harry, Ron, Hermione, possibly any or all the weasleys. Maybe even one of the order members like Lupin.
4841 Hogwarts Express
Harry, Ron, Hermione, Draco, and Hagrid.
4842 Hogwarts Castle
Dumbledore, Professor Mcgonagal, Knight, Snape, one of the ghosts, Harry, Ron, Hermione, and the rest would really depend on what book it's based off of.
I'm really looking forward to these sets since they've always had the best pieces of any one individual theme.

There's actually already a Lego Ginny, from the Chamber of Secrets set.
The sets sound like remakes to me. I'm honestly let down. Dobby's Release sounds exactly the same as the old one.
Unless there are some spectacular remakes, the only one I'll get for sure based off of the names and general prices is The Burrow.
Thanks for the news though!

Posted 04 January 2010 - 03:14 AM
Considering the line sort of failed at the end of 2005, it makes sense for LEGO to go back to basics with the most recognisable scenes than just doing one movie. (The 2007 one off set was an exception in the history of the theme.)
I won't mind if the sets are sufficiently improved over the old ones.
Posted 04 January 2010 - 04:25 AM
Svelte, on Jan 3 2010, 10:14 PM, said:
And I'm sure they will be. LEGO has shown us recently that it redoes things in full force. Just look at Star Wars, with each redo the models get bigger and more detailed. LEGO usually doesn't put out sets that have the bare, kind of empty quality of the HP sets based on the first two movies. By the third and fourth movie lines, the sets were certainly getting better, but I'm sure since the sets on this list are from the first two movies, we will see a huge improvement.
My one worry about these though is that LEGO might not pay attention to detail again on the minifigures. I know it's based on a game and not movies this time, but the way the kept the kids' hair the same every single time bugged me. But I'm not too worried about it, LEGO doesn't disappoint too often (but now with crappy Chinese TS figures…).
And one more thing I notice about the set names. Though the games are years 1-4, most of the sets just form there names take place in 1 and 2. Those two are certainly more kid-oriented, and maybe there will be a second wave, but it just seems a tad odd. If LEGO was worried about 3 and 4 being too dark for what they want, then they wouldn't be making the game, so why are none of these sets from those two? (We don't know about the Castle or the Burrow of course, but you know what I mean)

I noticed this too, I would have thought they would release more sets and from different movies. Hopefully more set names will pop up soon.
Posted 04 January 2010 - 10:44 AM
Mr. Potter is back now is he, oh poop there goes my money again.
My son loves watching HP movies and has a few of the minifigs, so when I tell him this - it will be smiles from ear to ear.
I wonder if the Hogwarts Express will have PF or at least the same wheels etc., as the Emerald Night. Might be worth adding it to my collection.
Looks like 2010 could be Lego's finest ever !!!!

Thats almost a whole year, i dont know if i can wait that long.

Clone O'Patra, on Jan 4 2010, 06:25 AM, said:
What are you talking about? Most of the set names don't relate to any specific book (Hagrid's Hut, the Burrows, Hogwarts Express, the Castle), and only one refers to the first book (Quidditch Lesson) while one is related to the third book (Dobby's Release). So I really can't see how you came up with that theory...
Anyway, I'm super-excited to see the return of Harry Potter (I've managed to gather most of the old sets, even though they all came out during my "dark ages"). Sure, there are some repeats, but with those prices I expect the sets to be much bigger and better than before.
As for minifigs, they're bound to be fleshies, but I don't mind, since I'll probably find use for them anyway. I just hope there's more female minifigs, especially Luna Lovegood (even though she doesn't appear until the Guild of the Phoenix).

I'm guessing that the Hogwarts express will be PF-adaptable, with instructions to do so like with the Emerald Night.
The only thing I'm worried about is how LEGO's mentality has changed since the first Harry Potter sets; I've always loved HP sets especially for the large number of rare and/or printed parts. Given what LEGO's like these days, I'm guessing there won't be so many of these. But I hope the standard of set design is high to keep the sets appealing.
Posted 04 January 2010 - 08:25 PM
Posted 04 January 2010 - 08:34 PM
I got most of the old sets and now I really want to get back into it.
Hopefully we will see some new minifigures and not a Harry Potter in every set.

The Green Brick Giant, on Jan 4 2010, 09:57 PM, said:
But two of them are licensed themes, while Kingdoms is an original theme. Would you rather have LEGO make only license-based toys, and nothing of their own?
There's a great difference in all three themes, in my eyes. Prince of Persia has middle-eastern buildings and animals, Harry Potter has magical creatures and unrealistic buildings, and Kingdoms is the closest to the historical middle ages with its knights and fortresses.
I think the target audience of all three varies greatly as well, with PoP appealing more to older kids, Harry Potter more to girls, and Kingdoms to younger boys.
I believe I am a rare example of a person who wants all three of them.

Oi!, Do you find me girly?
I think lots of Afols want all three of them, Especially if they have nice pieces, Figs or constructions.

Uh hum- Im not a girl and I still really really want to get all those sets.
Anyway, Im really hoping that they make sure this theme still includes all those surprising and cool elements we were given the first time round. For me that was one of the things that really made the sets so special. We need more figures, and I will be expecting a fair few new ones from Lego.
I hope lego make the sets special by adding in new features and I would really like that castle to be nice with a lot of cool features and elements.

Champions League Semi.
As a Chelsea supporter, I see Liverpool winning over the two legs. 2-1 at Anfield and a 1-1 draw at the bridge are my predictions. Liverpool are awesome when the chips are down in Europe. I don't think however you will get your sixth star.
I think Man.Utd will be too strong over two legs against an off form Barca, and will beat Liverpool comfortably in the final. 3-1Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies

Actually, lifelong fan who worked on Chelseas community coaching staff for 4 years. Just giving an opinion, I might be wrong, your just too ******** stupid to realise that. Your the type of Chelsea fan that gives the rest of us a bad name, the mindless moron who doesn't give credit where its due.....to be honest mate you should grow up a little. My opinion comes from being a qualified coach and playing semi pro football and having been coached by some of the best around. You have a think about that.....keep up the singing!
We are taking Chelsea out again. It's unfortunate we won't meet Man U after a humiliating defeat by Barca. Barca will be stronger on this semi but won't match our form on the final.

yes well done., most people change sides every year to suit the best team at the time, Man U vs Liverpool final, go to penalties!

Manchester fans what you saw is a preview of what is going to happen on your own ground. 72% possession for Barca, that's embarrassing. you were even given a penalty to start with. Barca will beat you second leg. They are not intimidated by your shoots, they will take booes for encouragement and beat you. Yaya Toure, Henri and Messi. Who said Ronaldo was the best? where was he? Looser. That is where we want to see players, not against Derby.

I just set up a new blog via download from wordpress.org, no plugins installed, imported posts from another vanilla (no plugins) blog, and the add/edit post page is being weird. Going to 'add new post', all of a sudden the left nav pulldown menus don't work, and none of the # anchor reference links work (e.g.#edit_timestamp, #status, etc.)
Tested with FF3, FF5, Safari and latest chrome.
Tried it with visual editor disabled as well.
Anyone duplicate this issue?
