My latest projects-NOT!!!
My hands are numb! I have been trying to knit so many gifts for Chrsitmas....I looked around my house and decided....$15 gift cards might work for some of these folks! I only have these two little hands and no helpers....so I am shutting down Santa's shop until further notice! I have got to get my house in ORDER! Does anyone else feel that way?
You've got time. Don't get rattled, enjoy your holiday. We've enjoyed seeing all the things you've made.
My latest projects have come up in KNOTS and NOTS!
Knitting should be fun--not stressful, painful, or hand-numbing. When it begins to get unfun, it's definitely time to throw it down and do something else (although getting my house in order certainly wouldn't be my preferred pastime--maybe kayak fishing).
And gift cards are a great idea--especially if there are lots of people on your list.
Maybe next year consider trimming that list down quite a bit??!!!
After all, this fact applies to most people in America: What could we possibly need or want that we haven't already bought ourselves?
I should have prefaced this with a life story!!!! I quit my job in September due to a back issue...was way behind in getting my house in order as I had had extended family living here for a long time...I have one of those personalities that I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING myself...which you would think at a certain age you would figure differently!
Anyway...I figure once I have house under control, I will pick up the needles and it doesn't really take that long to whip up a sports hat!!! That is what the BOYS are expecting....my best friend's sons....I don't want to disappoint them...they treat me like a mom! And one is the godfather to my grandkids!
and yes I STILL have time!!
There's no shame in giving a handknit still on the needles, then taking it back to finish up. If that's what it takes.
My biggest thing is pressure. I don't do well under pressure so if I tend to overdo, I basically become the b word because I get so stressed out. I always have to plan way ahead so I don't get stressed. Gift cards are never a bad idea. You made some lovely things this year. You should be proud of yourself.
Making something because I feel I have to isn't as fun as just taking things easy and knitting for pure enjoyment. If I am crunched I don't like it.
I like the promissory note idea, too! And remember, the 12 days of Christmas extend until Jan 6th. It's a handmade gift and this kind of love takes a little more time. Relax and enjoy the season.

Help us Keep Bankswood Festival Free
As Bankswood Festival gets bigger, we have a dilemma! We want to be able to continue to grow without being fully reliant on grant support. We are keen that the festival sticks true to its roots as first and foremost a community event. As a result like last year, we will be selling tickets in advance, BUT (and here is the creative bit) TICKET PURCHASE IS VOLUNTARY. If you rate the festival, and value what we do and can afford to do so, then PLEASE, show your support and buy a ticket. You will find full details of our ticket offer here.
As well as winning our undying gratitude, anyone buying an advanced ticket will be entered into a draw (exclusive to advanced ticket holders) to
win one of our Festival T-shirts.
Tickets are available through Eventbright
27/28 August 2016
We have now confirmed the dates for Bankswood 2016 as 27th and 28th August (Saturday & Sunday of the August Bank holiday weekend).
Once again in 2016 thanks to support from Big Lottery
We are really excited to announce that for the 2016 festival, we are again supported by the Big Lottery Fund, allowing us to continue developing the festival. This all means that as well as delivering an even better weekend for you the festival goers, we are also fulfilling our other objectives of supporting up and coming bands and engineers by giving them the opportunity to work in a top class festival environment.
Bankswood Music Festival – Keeping Music Live In The Community
Run for the first time in 2010 Bankswood Festival aims to deliver the newest & best local music combined with a celebration of all that's great in the local community to create a 2 day outdoor festival. Started by a group of enthusiasts, and now organised by The Glossopdale Trust, it has two simple aims, Firstly to create a great , family festival in the heart of Glossopdale, that will become the No 1 event in the area.
And Secondly, our long term aim is to to use any surplus funds from the running of the festival to support community organisations within the area.
Bankswood Music Festival relies on donations and sponsorship, so if you would like to help click here for more info. Also, if you are interested in having a trade stand at Bankswood 2016, we would love to hear form you.

1) Tax Payer Identification Number or other documentation demonstrating proof of tax payer ID, copy of drivers license, and copy of SS-9 form.
I mailed all of the requested documents to Sharebuilder with a Cashiers Check for more than $2859.00, but never heard from anyone. I attempted to access my account online and got an error message indicating that I had to contact customer service.
I called customer service and the representative told me that they couldn't find my name or tax payer ID in the credit bureaus data files. He then indicated that I should resend the originally requested information. When I pointed out it was already sent, the customer service representative said that they were still processing it after three weeks. I called again and they put me on hold for over 15 minutes without answering the phone.
Sharebuilder has accessed a credit bureau without my authority or blessing. In addition, they have violated security laws with respect to tardy processing of payments.
I never requested to open a margin account (a loan) and therefore they have no legitimate reason to pull anyones credit report.
My conclusion is that Sharebuilder is slipshod company that violates federal laws and converts peoples money. My complaint would be resolved if they opened the account and processed it in accordance with rules governing receipts of cash.
Also, there are problems with their website. If you don't type the syntax perfectly correct when logging in, their server locks you out and causes you to reassign your password. This is silly and incompetant and would be more appropriately be handled by a technique known as "virtual numbers", a process successfully inmplemented by AOL and Citibank.

Meridian elementary schools kicked off Red Ribbon Week with a big rally Monday at Crestwood Elementary School.
Students began the week with a pledge to stay drug-free. Other activities will also follow at Parkview, Oakland Heights, Poplar Springs, and Harris campuses.
The theme for Red Ribbon Week is "Freedom is drug free".
"We want them to understand the importance of being committed to living a drug-free life," said Young. "We have to catch them at this age so they will realize that it's important for them to start good habits earlier. And then those habits will continue throughout their lives."
Red Ribbon Week is the oldest and largest drug prevention campaign in the country.
It also commemorates the death of DEA agent Enrique Camarena, who died at the hands of drug traffickers in Mexico while fighting the battle against illegal drugs.

i'm using a custom function to control excerpt lenghts in multiple places site-wide. on my archive pages there's a word limit of 55 ex:
<?php echo content(55); ?>
this is great except for that it also includes video embeds and/or images within the body text if the embedded content is within the first 55 words and it throws off the whole structure of the archive pages. is there an easy way to restrict the inclusion of any <object> tag or image in the body <p> tag? here is the function
function content($limit) {
$content = explode(' ', get_the_content(), $limit);
if (count($content)>=$limit) {
$content = implode(" ",$content).'...';
} else {
$content = implode(" ",$content);
$content = preg_replace('/\[.+\]/','', $content);
$content = apply_filters('the_content', $content);

great function, btw. i didn't write it but it works like a charm and allows for a TON of flexibility.

Kim Gets the Waist of a 10-Year OldTue, 1 May 2012
By Huda Heidi Kattan
We all know Kim Kardashian hast an insanely tiny waist–that's one thing she loves to show off (well, one of maaanny things). I kept seeing articles about her getting photo shopped, but really what's new? She loves photo shop as much as I love makeup, so I didn't really pay any mind to it. After I finally saw the photos, I was pretty shocked with how tiny they made her waist. I don't think there's anything wrong with a little photo shop here and there, I admire celebrities who try not to use it, but when I see unrealistic images, it kind of gets to me! What do you guys think? Does this look natural or digitally 'enhanced'?

Right now if you are watching keeping up with the Kardashians, that is not her waist at all! This picture a little old I believe and I just watched an episode where she was dating Kris (ex-husband) and her waist did look this tiny! It may be photoshopped a little of course. But it is not far from reality.
Maybe ribs removing + photo shop. ….. I think we should like what we have enhancing them and be ourselves .. not trying to be that girl look like .. we will exhaust ourself by that.. thx huda for that voting xxx
Wow.. Thats just doesnt look realistic any more.
Hey I love Kim's style and fashion sense but i hate when she die to look perfect in any cost, please Kim be realistic as people love real things in long run still i admire you just try to be normal…..dont photoshop, keep that for your old age

Visitors in central London will next week be able to queue up and pay their respects to the "dead" body of Prince Harry, fictitiously killed when serving his tour of duty in Iraq.
In what initially seems an unlikely memorial to those willing but unable to serve in Iraq, a statue of the dead Prince will go on display next week in a hotel in Trafalgar Square.
The piece, created by artist Daniel Edwards, has Prince Harry clutching a cameo locket of his late mother, Princess Diana, and a bloodied flag of Wales.
Pennies cover the eyes of the 23-year-old Prince, whose head rests on a bible and whose lifeless body is laid out before a Union Jack flag. A desert vulture perches on his boot while his unfired gun is still in its holster.
The artistic "memorial" will go on show at the five-star Trafalgar Hotel as part of the Bridge Art Fair.
In May this year, Prince Harry's expected deployment in Iraq was refused by General Sir Richard Dannatt, the head of the British Army, because of "unacceptable risks" and a "number of specific threats" against him directly.
Explaining his statue, the New York-based Mr Edwards said: "Prince Harry's spirit must have died the day they told him he couldn't serve. That's what this memorial is about."
In a gruesome addition to the statue, the Prince's head is earless, in reference to reports that terrorist militia leaders said they planned to send him back to his grandmother "without his ears".
A bronze casting of his "severed ears" will also be on display at the hotel and will go on sale on the popular auction website eBay at a later date.
David Kesting, a spokesman for the art fair, said: "This war memorial is dedicated to the brave at heart.
"But the brave men and women Prince Harry inspired to enlist for combat following his announcement to serve six months in Iraq are not forgotten."
He said visitors may place cards and flowers for the prince at the memorial or send their condolences through the website at http://www.PrinceHarryMemorial.com.
The timing of such a piece of art may be seen by many as rather sensitive, with the inquest into the death of his mother, Princess Diana, under way on the tenth anniversary of her own, all too real, death.

Cute little piano. Wasn't expecting the real deal. Also wasn't expecting the piano to sound like popping rubberbands. Worse sound ever!
I bought this for my 18 month old and she loved it! But of course she does not know what a piano should sound like. The moment she started playing it you can hear that it needs a serious tuning and the keys need to be tightened, you can hear them clicking against each other as she is playing. So you hear the clicking and the sound of the piano. It could be better, but at least my child loves it.
bought this for my 5 and 3 year old they love it and its helping them learn the piano. they play with it everyday. they have so much fun making music. recommend it for 2 years up and older very easy to put together to. its so easy instruction on how to put together don't come with it well worth the money.
When putting the legs on, I had to cut and smooth 2 of them so they were even. Inspector,missed this. I noticed right away. There is runs and smears from where varnish ran.

Labour's Marty McFly policyOctober 21st, 2011 at 12:29 pm by David Farrar
I devote my Herald column to Labour's work and wages policy. Many of my Herald columns are reasonably reflective. In this one, I call a spade a spade.
I devote my Herald column to Labour's work and wages policy. Many of my Herald columns are reasonably reflective. In this one, I call a spade a spade.
David you make a great point in there: the ability under Labour's policy of industry big players to raise rivals' costs and put them out of business.
Bryce Edwards made a good point yesterday that this policy is Labour conceding the middle and shoring up its core left support ahead of defeat.
The problem with Liabore's industrial policies and those of the Greens and those of Mana, is they all operate from false premises. The world of work doesn't in fact operate the way any of these parties think it does.
It's quite frustrating because these parties simply and always merely generate needless friction, skewing the debate hopelessly and adding no value whatsoever. If only we had two sides who both knew how the world worked, then just maybe the voters could choose between two workable sets, but no, this is not what we have.
This is simply the latest example of the left's profoundly flawed fundamental thinking on this critical topic with respect to our national well being.
I don't support the Labour policy except the bit on stat holidays, :-). My first thought was that Labour was just playing to the base to ensure they get the union vote out (such as it may be) at the election. But I wonder if it could get traction in circumstances where many wage and salary earners are finding that their income is not keeping pace with inflation. Sooner or later that is going to bite, particularly if interest rates start to climb, and it might push some voters towards the idea of a more interventionist state.
I'm not sure you understand the plot of Back to the Future.
Marty McFly had a De Lorean, these two bobs are stuck in something like Fred Flintstone"s car.
Love the comments you have generated on Herald. You bought out the real old fashioned unionists.
Farq I hated them (and I belonged because it was compulsory!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

First of all let me start of with a huge thank you for this plugin. It's really one of the best out there. So thanks for this.
The issue I'm experiencing is kind of special, and I'm not sure if it fully relates to "Add link to Facebook". When I post something on WP and this post goes to Facebook, all is fine. However when I want to share the FB post, or when I like the WP entry it shows the hyphen in code: "& # 8217;" (added spaces to be sure it doesn't translate it.
Is this an issue related to the plugin, or is this an FB issue?
Thanks for the support and feedback

Having criticised the 18 year-old's representatives recently and urged Pogba to "look round about him to realise" the rewards that could lie ahead of him at Manchester United, Ferguson is understood to be ready to step up the midfielder's development by involving him against the Dutch champions, who trail 2-0 from last week's Europa League round of 32 first-leg in Amsterdam.
Pogba, who arrived at United in controversial circumstances in October 2010 following attempts by former club Le Havre to lodge a complaint to Fifa over alleged poaching, is a target of AC Milan, Inter Milan, Arsenal and Manchester City, despite making just four substitute appearances so far for United.
But with contract talks ongoing, Ferguson admits that the influence of Ferdinand could be a key factor in Pogba's decision on his future.
"Rio has become an important figure at the club, he is good with the players," Ferguson said. "He is good with the young players.
"At the moment, he is working hard on the boy Pogba and talking to him. The young boy is unsure, but Rio is well regarded [by him]."
Meanwhile, Greater Manchester Police are to increase patrols in the city ahead of the Ajax game with 1,000 Dutch supporters expected to travel without tickets for the game. Ajax have been given an allocation of 3,900 tickets.
United are bracing themselves for a massive dip in media revenues following their exit from the Champions League. While United were able to confirm growth in all areas when they announced second-quarter results on Tuesday, they also know the effect of being dumped into the Europa League is still to be felt.
It is estimated they will lose approximately £3 million per round in prize-money alone by being in Uefa's secondary competition.
However, while they acknowledge revenues will dip, United insist that will have no impact on manager Sir Alex Ferguson's ability to compete in the transfer market.
Ferguson has consistently argued he will not pay over the odds for players and refused to splash out the huge amount of money it would have cost to take Wesley Sneijder to Old Trafford from Inter Milan in the summer after previously missing out on alternative targets Luka Modric and Samir Nasri.
This stance cuts little ice with critics of the Glazer ownership at United though. They have noted a further buyback of the £500million bond issue, meaning the debt has now been reduced by £92.8 million.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Ok when I first heard about WFG (World Financial Group) It sounded way to good to be true, but my friend invited me so I decided to give it a try (since I do want to make money now). I am currently in a part time job so I get paid every week. my friend said that I will be getting paid as soon as I work for them, until I met the agent. (you must talk to an agent to join in). I went to the meeting to talk to an agent but the was no sign of WFG. It wasnt even their own office at all, it was just rented. I even told my friend," how do you get paid here." He was just completely blank.
First the agent makes you or forces you to join a world finacial dream map. THe dream map shows you how you can save money by putting in the amount every month.the dream map requires you to pay monthly. I had to pay 90.00$ a month, just to have life insurance and a bank at the same time. the advantage about saving in this company is you follow the rule of 72, which means that eight or nine years from now you money doubles. But you are not allowed to touch your money in two years from now so your money can start building up. But the funny cacth is you dont know where your money goes. They are also very negative with banks. my agent says that the money I save in the bank goes invested. dont get me wrong is a good idea but having a bank is way more secured.
This Is the next funny thing. I was trying to conversate him (agent) about the job or money making business you guys make. He never even bothered about talking about that. He completely ignored me and kept talking about the dream map. I was not interest in being the world dream map (they will call you client if you join) But I joined anyways because he seemed desperate. I said to myself, "I mean I will be making money anyways, so why not". In addition, when I sign up and already paid for the 100$ fee (background check) he never mentioned about the money making or any meeting, until I have mentioned to him that my friend was going to a meeting.I guess he only cared about me paying him and getting on with his life.
The other thing that really dissapointed me is that you have to pay for a backgound check. I went WTF you have to pay for your own background check thats dumb. through all the jobs and companies I have been through, this is actually the first one that required me to pay for a background check. So ok I paid 100.00 $ more just for a background check. Note: they only require 60.00$ for a background check in the U.S. Since I said to myself I am gonna be getting paid alot.
Another thing is the invite. when I went to the first metting everyone there was so nice. they actually cared about your own opinion but still no money making or any info about it. there was a presentation about the same thing, the dream map. they were taliking about how they have been i a though situation and when they found this company WFG, everything got better. I was trying to tell him how can i get started but changed the subject also she told me that there is only 10 % chance of going in. 10 % thats it ok its worth it since I will bemaking money. I invited my friend who did not have a job but he was looking for an opportunity. my agent acyually said that he was not qualified for it. I thought but why if you can make money here. A week later he got angry at me for not even getting as notice or a call from me but i did not know until he told me.
Also this is funny too. The way they mention that they are making money with all the company combined, (like coca cola, microsoft, and ect...). put it this way if you have to pay for your background check or pay for any manual, shouldn't they have to do that. i mean they are making money right. also they way they give you a cd to listen to it was a burned cd. thats right a burned cd.not even an actual cd that says WFG. in the cd they only talk about how to make people to convince them how to join.
There was another metting but I agent like always never mentions anything so I got out of the company and decided to leave. He seemed very dissapointed and he was refusing to me to leave. he kept talking about how you can make money but it never happens.
Im not saying this is a scam but, this is my first time that I actually had to pay to work for myself. its dumb that they say they make money, but under my opinion I believe that is a way to drag you in. I mean a business is a business, they will do anything for money to roll in, no matter what even liying to yor clients, if it comes up. But what people dont understand is there is Karma in this world so everything you do will affect you the same way.

Sorry, my fault. I've just updated documentation. After you've installed plugin just go to main page of your blog, or any other page of your blog and in the top you will find small arrow. Just click on it and plugin will show you where people wear clicking.
This bar is visible only for admin and it will not count admin clicks.
Thx a lot, I figured it out in the end, but updating the description was a good move ;-)
I'm not able to see the toolbar at the top
CSS loads ok
Logger records OK (for non admin users)
But view.js somehow does not create the toolbar div.
I'm using Firefox 3 and WP 2.7.1.
Any help is appreciated
whats your url?
I can not open the map in my homepage, I click on the arrow but nothing happens.
Must spend a certain time to start seeing results? Still not a day that i install the plugin.
Im using, wp2.7.1 and firefox 3
I have Lightbox usong prototype.js
The order of loading the scripts makes all the difference
1. <script type="text/javascript" src="js/scriptaculous.js?load=effects"></script>
2. <script type='text/javascript' src='/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js?ver=1.2.6'></script>
3. <script type="text/javascript" src="js/prototype.js"></script>[/code]
And it works perfectly.
Upgrade to version 1.3 just broke it. No dots on the heatmap. :(
I was wondering whether it was me or the plugin..
Dimitry has made a few adjustments I mailed him about (404's on a PHP file trying to include within the JS class, tablename in one of the files which was static - if you didn't have the wp_ prefix you'd get errors). With 1.2 I had a memory_overflow error (still don't know why) and with 1.3 the error is gone, but also no output (as ajfpp said: no dots on the heatmap).
Even I can't see any output. I have mailed the author with the problem. Will check what response I get from him.
any news regarding this issue?
Got the same JS error. Any help ?
I mailed the author about a week ago, but never heard back from him. So I have no idea what's going wrong and how to fix it :(
I have not much experience with cashing.
"Set permission to 777 or 666 for /wp-content/plugins/heatmap/cache folder."
Any idea where i can do that?
Just found out how to do this, but don't need it for the moment... I was testing locally :)
I just installed this plugin but can't seem to get it to work. I see the arrow to make the heatmap go down over the screen but I don't see any dots. The calendar works, too. I don't see any cache folder to set permissions in my plugin folder. What am I missing?
I'm not seeing the arrow at all. I don't use wp_header in my header script (don't ask). Is there a way I can install the script in my header manually?
Can anyone tell me what script to place in my site header so I can see the arrow and collect stats?

The OECD's Annual Meeting at Ministerial Level reinforced member governments' support across a broad range of key OECD work.
OECD Ministers have endorsed updated guidelines to help national governments and regional groups create the right conditions to attract domestic and foreign investment.
The greatest puzzle today is that since the global crisis financial markets see so little risk, with asset prices rising everywhere in response to zero interest rates and quantitative easing, while companies that invest in the real economy appear see so much more risk. What can be happening?
In October 2014 China launched the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), drawing wide international attention. Nearly 60 countries have joined the new international financial institution, including several OECD member and partner countries, though others have remained cautiously outside. What is the purpose of the new bank and what impact will it have? We asked Yide Qiao for his views.
The world economy desperately needs more productive investment: to create jobs, to increase productivity and to meet critical global goals like combating climate change. But instead of more productive investment, we are getting rising stock markets. Sadly too many policymakers and journalists don't know the difference.
Singapore, 28 May 2015: This roundtable will focus on key themes related to G20 work, including how policy makers and investors can facilitate private sector infrastructure financing, the development of infrastructure as an asset class, and issues relating to the regulation of long-term investment.
The OECD hosted a workshop on green investment banks on 20 May 2015. It built upon discussions of green banks at the OECD Green Investment Financing Fora (May 2015 and June 2014) and continued international dialogue on the experiences of green banks. The workshop welcomed 9 different green banks, public financial institutions, NGOs, the private sector and over 20 countries interested in the green bank model.
Building on the success of the inaugural Green Investment Financing Forum, the OECD held its 2nd Green Investment Financing Forum on 19-20 May 2015. In this defining year for climate change policy and low-carbon investment, OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurría welcomed senior government officials and key actors in financing green infrastructure investment for a targeted discussion.

In this issue of "Pension Funds in Figures", preliminary data and early estimates for 2014 show that pension funds' assets exceeded USD 25 trillion in OECD countries. The largest increases are found in Estonia, Korea, Luxembourg and Turkey, where pension funds' assets rose by more than 20% compared to...

I signed up in 10/03 with the expectation that I would be provided access to first-quality, below-wholesale merchandise, Import/Export training, and pre-screened leads sufficient for connecting with 50 serious buyers.
Needless to say, it became clear to me during the training sessions that IMG was more interested in selling useless memberships than in actually running a business. My trainer Lino Castanon (now curiously going by the name Lino Carlton) obviously knew very little about the Import/Export business and was clearly instructing me in nothing more than cold-calling techniques. Very little inventory was available on IMG's listing service, substantially all of which was much less attractive than originally promised. It would be a complete waste of time, not to mention positively embarrassing, to present such dimal offerings to an actual client.
When I voiced these concerns to IMG, they responded with nothing but BS and empty assurances. My trainer would argue this was a proven system, that inventory fluctuates daily, that Import/Export training would be forthcoming, that it typically takes about four months for affiliates to begin generating an income, etc, etc. As my efforts were better spent on true income-generating activities than on continuing to play along with this scam, I was quickly forced to accept that Id been duped.
I choose not to pursue a refund my $7,450 payment in the courts since the cost and time required to do so is prohibitive. However, if a class action suit is filed, I will gladly cooperate.

A design committee, consisting of school officials and community and student representatives, met early this month and settled on two possible designs for the new middle school that will be built in the Liberty zone.
Students at Moneta Elementary School joined millions of students from around the world last week in an Hour of Code, a part of Computer Science Education Week.
Staunton River High School is looking to replace its school sign with a modern digital sign. And, the new sign won't cost the taxpayers a thing. The school's PTSA is spearheading the effort to raise the money to pay for the project.
The effort is getting close to its goal.
According to Alvin Gable, chairman of the PTSA committee that's handling the effort, the PTSA has now raised $16,000 and has $7,000 left to raise to pay for the sign.
It's getting to be an annual event.
A Liberty High School (LHS) art project is drawing attention to the new Army Reserve Center on U. S. 460. The students spent last Thursday afternoon painting some stacked hay bales.
Melissa Friedwald, who teaches the Art 1, Adaptive Art and Digital Art classes oversaw the project, which was done by her third period Art 1 class. Friedwald commented that she "usually doesn't get to do the fun projects."
The Liberty High School Theatre Department wants to scare some folks this Saturday.
And raise some funds in the process.
For the second year in a row, theatre students from LHS will present an interactive haunted house involving more than 30 actors, dancers, technical designers, and makeup artists – all coming together for an evening of "theatre and terror."
A motion made by District 3 school board member Dr. John Hicks to give Dr. Douglas Schuch a new contract, effective until June 30, 2018, passed by a 4-3 margin last Thursday.
Dr. Douglas Schuch, superintendent of schools, briefed the school board about personalized learning at the school board's Thursday night meeting.
According to Dr. Schuch, the goal of personalized learning is to empower students to "take ownership of their own education."
It also encourages teachers and students to take risks. This is what "fail forward" a term Dr. Schuch uses frequently, means.
The Bedford Education Foundation held its annual Back-to-School breakfast, Thursday morning, honoring contributors who have provided the Foundation money for grants.
Students, faculty and staff at Jefferson Forest High School wore camo, boots and hats to school last Thursday in memory of one of their own who passed away suddenly last week.
Junior Tyler Blake Arnett, who suffered from cystic fibrosis, died unexpectedly.
Arnett, 17, loved the outdoors. "He was a very well-liked student," stated Ryan Edwards, public relations coordinator for Bedford County Public Schools. "Our thoughts are with Tyler's family during this very sad time."

In this video I'm going to show you how to create the base for the rotary dials, and also the buttons. So let's go to chapter 03, and we're going to open up file 03 03 F1 button base. Let's select one of those bases, we're going to hide unselected objects, let's go to our top view. Press w to move, and let's move that closer to 0, 0, 0. Now in polygons, let's create a cylinder. If I double click, these are the parameters for this polygon, and we'll just say create.
I'm going to go into one of my end views down here, and then let's just set the correct height, select vertex press v, hover over a target vertex and release. Same again for the bottom. Now we're just going to go to object mode, select the component, and now we're ready to put some splits into this part. So back to our F1 shelve. And let's use the cyclone here for the interactive split tool. Let's go round the center portion like so. Y to accept, Y to accept. Im going to Q out of this command. Right mask button, select faces and then just delete those.
So we basically created a manifold part right now. So now I want to go back to the interactive split tool which is this icon. Put one split like this. Track over the top, and at this point I'm just going to return. So now I'm going to move some vertex points. This one to here, and this one to here. And then q to quit the command. So this is the overall shape that we're aiming for; now we just simply have to put a few more edge loops in there, and we're completed. So let's go here to this icon, let's double click. Now we have to sometimes double click on the left hand side down here to open up view options. And reset the tool, exit out of that and put one in here, one in here, put one over the top like so.
And one down here like this. Q to quit the command, so this should tie up those radiuses quite nicely for us. So, if I say object mode, press number three. That looks quite nice. That's exactly what we're looking for. Press one. Now I want to show all objects again. So, let's go to this icon. Let's just delete this one. So, we've created this out of Global 000 and we want to reposition it back into the correct location. So let's go to w, top view. The triad is right in the middle which is correct. So all we have to do now is press v, and then just move this button over like so.
At this point, let's go to our prospective view, you can see the button is sitting a little bit lower. So what I have to do now is press the v again to move this triad up to here. You'll notice because the triad is not at the top of the part this is still incorrect. So we need to move that triad to the very top vertex first. Just press insert. Press the v, hold on the blue axis, snap, and let's press insert again.
Now we can move the whole button down, but before we do that, let's press v, and I'm going to put my cursor right on this vertex point here as the target, release, and if we go to one of our end views, like so, We can see that is the correct height. These buttons here are very simple. They're just simply a case of putting in another polygon cylinder like this. Then in the top view, let's move it to the right location. Press R to scale. W to move. In this case, we don't need eight segments, so we can go to poly cylinder, and change this down to six segments.
And the reason for that is it is always better to use the minimum number of segments that you really need. then it would be a case of simply scaling this way, or we could go to the vertex mode. This, W, press v, blue axis, place my cursor right on the top, and that's at the correct height We could also do the same for the bottom. Press the V, let's set the correct height.
So that's the base for the rotary dials and the buttons completed.
