White Man Runs Him (Mahr-Itah-Thee-Dah-Ka-Roosh; c. 1858 – June 2, 1929) was a Crow scout serving with George Armstrong Custer's 1876 expedition against the Sioux and Northern Cheyenne that culminated in the Battle of the Little Bighorn.
Early life[edit]
Also known as White Buffalo That Turns Around, he was born into the Big Lodge Clan of the Crow Nation, the son of Bull Chief and Offers Her Red Cloth. At the age of about 18, he volunteered to serve as a scout with the United States Army on April 10, 1876, in its campaign against the Sioux and Northern Cheyenne, traditional enemies of the Crow.
Service as a scout[edit]
White Man Runs Him "enlisted on April 10, 1876 at the Crow Agency, Montana Territory, for six months in the 7th United States Infantry."[1] On June 21, 1876, he was transferred to Custer's Seventh U.S. Cavalry as part of a contingent of six Crow warrior/scouts, including Goes Ahead, Curly, Hairy Moccasin, White Swan, and Half Yellow Face, the leader of the scouts. He scouted for Lt. Charles Varnum's column in the days preceding the battle. In the early morning hours of June 25, 1876, he and other Crow scouts accompanied Varnum and Custer to the Crow's Nest, a high point on the Little Bighorn/Rosebud Creek divide, from which the Little Bighorn valley could be viewed at a distance of about seventeen air miles. The scouts could see indications of a large horse herd and the smoke of many morning fires, though the encampment itself was hidden from view on the valley floor. The Crow scouts advised Custer that the encampment was very large. Custer prepared to attack, however. Custer was concerned that during the morning of June 25, Sioux/Cheyenne warriors had detected the presence of his 650-man force, and if he did not promptly attack, the villagers would scatter, thus denying the army the confrontation it sought with the Sioux/Cheyenne forces.
Convinced they were about to die in battle, the scouts took off their uniforms and donned Crow war clothing. When Custer demanded to know why, they responded that they wished to die as warriors rather than soldiers. Custer was angered by what he perceived as fatalism and relieved them from further service about an hour before engaging in the final battle. White Man Runs Him retired to a ridge along with Goes Ahead, Hairy Moccasin, and Strikes That Bear (an Arikara scout) to join Major Marcus Reno. They were engaged briefly in battle, but would survive the engagement. He then joined Colonel John Gibbon's column.
Later life[edit]
After the battle, he lived on the Crow reservation near Lodge Grass, Montana. He was the stepgrandfather of Joe Medicine Crow, a Crow tribal historian who used his grandfather's stories as a basis for his later histories of the battle, and grandfather to Pauline Small, the first woman elected to office in the Crow Tribe of Indians. His status as a Little Big Horn survivor made him a minor celebrity late in life, and he even made a cameo appearance in the 1927 Hollywood movie Red Raiders.
White Man Runs Him lived the remainder of his life on the Crow Reservation in the Big Horn Valley region of Montana, just a few miles from the site of the famous battle. He died there in 1929.
White Man Runs Him was buried in the cemetery at the Little Big Horn Battlefield. His account of the battle is told in the work "The Custer Myth" by C. Graham, on pages 20 to 24,"[1] and also in It Is a Good Day to Die: Indian Eyewitnesses Tell the Story of the Battle of the Little Bighorn.[2]
A slough near Lodge Grass, Montana, is known as Baaishtashíilinkuluush Alaaxúa ("Where Whiteman Runs Him Hid"). A coulee, Baaishtashíilinkuluush Isalasáh te, which is named after him, is also known as "Whiteman's Creek."[3]

Almonds help lose up to 62% more weight and 56% more B.F!
Your Health: Almonds Boost Weight Loss, Health Gains Rallie McAllister, M.D., M.P.H.
If you're searching for a snack food that can help you lose weight and gain health, almonds are an excellent choice. For years, many dieters have shied away from nuts, largely because of their high fat and calorie content.
The results of a study published in the International Journal of Obesity may help put almonds back on the menu for many dieters. The study, conducted at the City of Hope National Medical Center in Duarte, Calif., demonstrated that the tasty morsels can be an important part of a successful weight-loss program.
Lead investigator Michelle Wien, Dr.P.H., R.D., found that when she asked volunteers to include raw or roasted almonds in their calorie-restricted diets, their weight-loss efforts were dramatically accelerated.
The study included 65 overweight and obese adults who were placed on one of two diets designed to promote weight loss. The caloric value and protein content of the two diets were equivalent, but only one included a 3-ounce serving of almonds daily.
After 24 weeks, the two groups showed a striking difference in their weight-loss patterns. The almond-eating group lost 62 percent more weight and 56 percent more body fat than the nut-free group. The almond-eaters also experienced significantly greater reductions in waist circumference and blood pressure.
According to Wien, "The weight-loss benefits of eating almonds came as something of a surprise, since the study was originally designed to evaluate the cholesterol-lowering effects of almonds. As it turned out, the dieters who ate almonds lost more weight than would be expected if they were taking prescription diet pills."
Wien offered several explanations as to why eating almonds helps dieters peel off unwanted pounds.
"Because of their unique texture and savory taste, almonds are very satisfying," she said. "A 3-ounce serving contains about 70 to 75 nuts, and this amount really fills people up, so that they're less likely to snack later on."
Wien noted that almonds provide a healthy source of "crunch" that many dieters miss, especially when they're cutting back on carbohydrates.
"Some of the study participants found that they couldn't eat the entire three-ounce serving in one sitting," she said. "All that chewing made their jaws tired."
For folks trying to cut back on high-cholesterol animal foods, the crunchy nuts are a protein-rich alternative to eggs and meat. Ounce for ounce, almonds contain nearly as much protein as lean meat.
Unlike animal sources of protein, nuts are high in fiber. Wien's research indicates that the fiber in almonds prevents some of the calories and fat from being absorbed by the human body.
"The fiber binds with a portion of the fat, so that it doesn't come into contact with the intestinal wall," she explained. "It just gets flushed out of the body."
The almond fat that is absorbed by the body offers a number of health benefits. "Of the nine tree nuts that are commonly eaten, almonds are the richest in oleic acid," Wien said. "This mono-unsaturated fat is the same type that is found in olive oil, and it's known to play an important role in lowering cholesterol levels."
In an earlier study conducted at the University of Toronto, researchers found that when subjects ate just 1 ounce of almonds daily, their levels of low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol fell significantly. Lower levels of LDL cholesterol reduce the risk for cardiovascular disease.
Almonds contribute to heart health in another important way. The nuts are one of the best natural sources of vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant known to play a role in the prevention of heart disease. A 1-ounce serving of almonds provides nearly 40 percent of the recommended daily value of the vitamin.
In addition to lowering the risk for heart disease, almonds appear to offer protection against some types of cancer. Like other varieties of nuts, almonds are rich in phytochemicals, biologically active compounds capable of blocking tumor formation.
In light of all their proven benefits, almonds are a smart, convenient addition to any diet, whether the goal is to lose weight or gain health. These nuts stay fresh without refrigeration or special handling, so you can keep them stashed in your car, your desk or your briefcase.
Whether they're eaten as an on-the-go snack or as an occasional meal replacement, almonds are a savory, satisfying treat that can be an important part of a healthy diet.

I wonder if this will lead people to finally stop complaining about how many calories and fat grams are in them????!!
Thanks for the article!
This is a great article, do you happen to have the link to the article?
"Because of their unique texture and savory taste, almonds are very satisfying," she said. "A 3-ounce serving contains about 70 to 75 nuts, and this amount really fills people up, so that they're less likely to snack later on."
A 1-ounce serving is 163 calories, so if I eat 3 ounces of almonds, I've consumed 489 calories, almost 1/3 of my daily allowance. I might be full for a little while, but I'll definitely snacking later on and go over my daily allowance.
Now if the article suggested a 1-ounce serving for mid-morning or mid-afternoon to keep me from snacking on junk, I'd agree. As is the above statement is foolish.

I eat 1oz at a time as well. It stops all snacking though. Obese people would have higher calorie limits so a 3 oz serving might not be that large in their diet.

This is great news - I think it works with less too... I eat 1 oz of almonds any time I need something quick and filling, not quite every day but often. And - I lost 25 pounds last month - really!

I do a mini serving at 12 nuts - .5 oz.
It gives me instant satisfaction with the crunch and nuttieness, plus keeps the calories lower so I can easily pair with a carb or with a bit of Greek yogurt - yumm!
I love the Blue Diamond oven roasted cinnamon brown sugar almonds - no appreciable added amount of sugar - just a hint of sweet that satisfies nmy sweet tooth too! And no added fats for the roasting.

Julio Cesar's late blunder enabled Bayern to snatch a 1-0 away win. Despite an overall disappointing exhibition from the homeside, the Germans needed to wait until the very last minute to score with Mario Gomez's tap in. Unlucky Inter? Maybe we can say 'unlucky Julio Cesar', who had been consistent and spotless as usual for 89 minutes, but not Inter.
"A draw would have been a fairer result. Both teams had their chances in a very entertaining game. We have been lucky" said the former Bayern and Inter legend Karl Heinze Rummenigge after the match. Gentleman's words. Inter-Bayern was the kind of the game where any result could have been acceptable. Even a draw or an Inter win. But Bayern deserved to win – they hit the posts twice with Ribery and Robben and controlled most of the game.
The European champions' timid approach allowed 'Boring' Munich to take the initiative and to look for large spells like a spectacular side, solid in all departments. Simply, they are not. Fielding two centrebacks like Tymoshchuk and Badstuber [and Breno from the 38th minute] is a luxury that normally you can afford in reserves games not against great opponents like Inter are supposed to be.
However, Louis Van Gaal was right as Inter didn't play as a great side. Too timid, too worried, too afraid of seeing exposed their recent slump in form. Nerazzurri were so scared by their poor physical condition [16 games in 49 days left the team with no energy] that they failed to test Bayern's limits, which were evident every time an Inter player ventured in the German penalty box.
The Italian champions managed to do it only occasionally – Ranocchia nearly scored at the first minute; Cambiasso missed a sitter twice at the minutes 25 and 57; the always outstanding Samuel Eto'o saw his three chances denied by a truly inspired Kraft, who pulled off two more decisive saves on Kharja and Thiago Motta. Many chances but no consequence of Inter' superiority. Despite the goalkeeper being Bayern's best player on the day – Lahm, Luiz Gustavo and Schwainsteiger were also brilliant but it's no surprise – the German didn't play a defensive game. On the contrary Van Gaal's wall in midfield allowed Bayern to dictate the game's script.
The German pressing was helped by Inter's lack of movement.
The team outclassed at White Hart Lane some months ago suddenly reappeared in San Siro. Same lack of proposition, same lack of runs without the ball. Most of all, the same sensation of a team on its knees. Pride, commitment and skills can't go very far without fresh legs. This disappointing display does not come out of the blue. In the last four games Inter lost twice (Juventus and Bayern) and won against Fiorentina and Cagliari. Four games that could have brought four wins, four defeats or four draws and no one could have argued - the constant was that Leonardo's team struggled in all of them.
Inter players looked drained. Last season Jose Mourinho surrendered top spot to Roma [only for few days] wasting a 14 points advantage to rest his players for the UEFA Champions League fixtures. This time Leonardo had to face just the opposite situation, as he had to reduce a 16 points gap from the Serie A leaders AC Milan – he managed to cut the deficit to only five points but now the team looks exhausted. He had no alternative and Inter are paying the price.
Leonardo is adamant his guys can win 2-0 in Munich. Ranocchia's injury doesn't help whereas Milito's return could be a big boost. Anyway, the sad truth is that Inter losing against Bayern meant third home defeat out of three Champions League games for the Italian sides. Serie A used to be the top league in the world in the 80s and in the 90s, one of the best ten years ago. But it's getting worse and worse. It's going to be the Mediterranean version of the Scottish Premier League – with the Old firm [AC Milan and Inter] ruling domestically but very often battered abroad.
Man of the match. Lucio. A gladiator. Monumental. He didn't deserve to be on the losing side. He stopped every opponent and tried to break Bayern's wall with his runs. Brave, generous, never beaten. The epitome of the winning mentality.

Did you even watch the game? Or you just are too stupid to understand?
You sound like a stupid biased knuckle dragger.
KD, Please mind your language.
The bavarian cnterbacks are indeed not 'world class' players. Nevertheless saying that Inter made Bayern look spectacular is a fairly ingnorant observation. Robben, Ribery, SchwEinsteiger and Mueller arguably form one of the more entertaining midfields in Europe, obviously more "spectacular" than any Serie A club these days. I recommend watching the German Bundesliga more often.
Oh, oh Adrian. I watch Bundesliga every Saturday and watched Mainz-Bayern on Sky. Bayern defended so badly that Mainz could have scored easily 4-5 goals. Second, Robben and Ribery are the only creative players at Bayern, where's entertainment in the others? IMO entertaining midfield can be applied to Barcelona, Arsenal, Tottenham, Valencia. Best view in Bundesliga are stadiums not football. BTW, great win 4 Bayern.
Interesting perspective Gianni, one however I cannot agree with 100%. Although behind in possession we did manage 45%, not a walk over by any stretch. Inter faced a team with arguably one of the best midfields in the world and def. the best wingers. It was a game of ebb and flow with both teams taking the initiative for ten minutes period, etching out chances before surrendering the initiative to the other. Both teams had excellent chances but could not take them until the sucker punch at the end. As for the post hits, they should not be overrated. The first was good but the second was covered by Cesar and was not a real concern.
I believe the second leg is open and that Inter can easily score twice, particularly if they play a 4-3-1-2 with Eto'o and Milito on top, this will allow defensive solidarity plus maximum attacking threat. It should be a great match. We just need to figure out how to stop Robban who for me is by far their most dangerous player! Keep the faith Inter fans!
It will be hard but not impossible to qualify. I couldn't watch the 2nd half but listened to the 1st half on the radio. This seems to happen a lot in football, if you don't score when you have the chance the other team will score. BTW, how long is Ranocchia going to be out?.
I think Leonardo using a xmas tree formation with guys who cannot do such a thing was the main problem. Unless you have the skill of a Seedorf/Kaka in the Kaka period of Milan now to have Stankovic and Sneijdar playing behing Eto'o was a tactical mistake. These players are good but they're not tactical in playing those type of roles. I think Inter can pull off a win at Bayren but it will be very tough.
In a few weeks we'll know what Inter- Milan AC Milan and Roma did and the statement Vanishing Italy will be either valid or exaggerated.
After all Inter Milan are still THE CHAMPIONS of Europe and by the way also THE WORLD.
Inter must score at least twice in the return leg. Bayern can sit back and wait for wide counterattacking opportunities, which will come, and will result in at least one goal. You can't play a Christmas tree against 4-5-1 and not give up good scoring chances from the wings. Maicon is still the key for Inter, whether he contributes or gets caught too far upfield. Go Bayern!
It won't be easy but both Inter and AC MILAN are only one goal down. The ball is round and both teams have the fire power to score more than one goal. If Milito plays for Inter and Pato plays from the start for AC Milan things will get interesting.
No matter what happens neither Tottenham or Bayern
will win the Champions.
Why Leonardo doesn't use Coutinho? He played only 1 hlaftime under Leonardo... Why no more?
Kraft was excellent, and Inter really should have converted at least one of their chances. Of course, the same thing could be said of the Bavarians who not only hit the post twice, but were far more adventurous in nicking an away goal, which they eventually did.
Fortune favors the brave, and Inter were clearly on their backfoot for most of the game. Timid is a good way to describe the Italian champions, as at times one wondered if the tie was in fact being played in Munich.
With Sneijder, Eto'o, Lucio, and Julio Cesar, Inter still have world-class players in these positions, so I wouldn't count them out.
Looking forward to the 2nd leg.
It doesn't matter what is fair? scoreline is the only thing that counts.. I hate when the other team that loses says its not a fair result you have to play the whole game boys.. Bayern will see off Inter, Roma is all but gone and AC milan -well Tottenham will score at least one goal so AC needs 3 -- good luck with that... Adidos Seria A teams... see ya next year...
Actually Miguel, even if Tottenham score one goal, AC Milan only need two goals to advance, not three. If AC Milan wins 2-1 (which means they will be tied 2-2 on aggregate) they are through because of that extra away goal.
Valid points. I don't think Inter played badly at all and, surprisingly, Robben didn't seem as dangerous this time around as last year. That's not to say he had a bad game, he actually played well and was easily their most dangerous player, but it you think about it he only put in 2 dangerous crosses and 3 dangerous shots (one that went over the crossbar, one that hit the post from an angle, and the last shot that Julio Cesar spilled)-- and, ALL 3 of those shots were covered by the goalkeeper/defenders. So, basically, it came down to an individual error, so you can't make too much out of that. Inter can definitely bounce back in the return leg, they have the talent to do it. The problem is they don't seem to have that same belief and motivation they had last year. That's the difference between Mou and most/all other coaches, he's the best motivator out there. Even now Ibrahimovic says that he'd kill for the guy, two years after he was coached by him, so that tells you something.
a loss is a loss, a draw would have been better obviously but what does a draw say for those who love Serie A. even though i support Juventus, and see Inter as "the ones from the other side", so to speak, this result frustrates me. i guess this is why UEFA has placed the Bundesliga ahead of Serie A in the top 5.
To : Serie Fan + those who think that milan , inter and roma can turn the tie, dream on ( & WAKE UP ) ... cos it will never happen, All this years italian league is truly a very boring and lousy league,, itlian teams claim they are very tactical but truth is their tactics is nothing but a whole load of bulllshit! ! !
( man united 7-1 roma )
milan 0-1 spurs ( 4th place in EPL )
inter 0-1 bayern ( germany )
roma 2-3 Shakhtar Donetsk ( ukraine )
napoli 0-0 villareal ( spain )
italian teams doesn't have any fighting spirit at all .. look at how Sevilla from spain salvage their pride by fighting till the end to beat Porto FC in portugal ( not many team can can win at Porto FC )
many folks are VERY glad to hear that germany has over-take italy allowing 4 team to take part in the 2012-2013 champion league.. Hooray ! Hooray !( by the way i'm not a supporter of german league)
last but not least , wataching italian league is a REALLY painful to our eyes ! ! !
Well, i think that teams from italy will be fine. To say that they are the next scottish premier league is a little harsh. Juve are def struggling but at the same time they are trying to rebuild. AC and inter do have chances to advance, it all depends on how much milan wants it (ibra,robinho and pato)can really hurt other teams when theyre felling it. I have alot of faith in the italians and im sure they will resurface at some point. Remember the juve team before the scandal broke out, they were swag so hard but now they just seem like they dont want it, slow and with no passion. Well good point about the sevilla win over porto dude who hates the Serie A. Also im not an italian supporter, Im an arsenal fan and i pull for england in international tourny's. Im american but dont even get me started on our national team or the teams in our joke of a league (real salt lake, common). Anywho keep up the blogs and common arsenal beat david villa and those catalans
Bayern 1 Borussia D. 3 Inter made Bayern look great. We can win in Germany

Me ne vengono in mente alcune a Roma in zona Via del Governo vecchio, a Genova nel centro storico, a Tokyo, Praga Aggiungo che adoro anche tantissimo le lrbierie Taschen.E' bello incontrarsi con amiche in inverno, fare un salto in una libreria, sedersi al cafe8 a chiacchierare, magari su dei divani o poltrone.. mi fa pensare ai bellissimi pomeriggi passati con un' amica argentina quando vivevo a Manchester. Che bei ricordi mi avete riportato alla mente con questo tema.Sono dell'idea che il libro cartaceo non passere0 mai.. ci vorranno anni e anni prima che si perda. Come si puf2 perdere l'emozione che si prova sfogliando un libro? Devo dire che sto pensando di modernizzarmi con qulche e book, ma solo per questioni pratiche, soprattutto in viaggio.Mi farf2 tentare?

quote: However, spending an extra 15k (or more) on a car to save a few k on gas over several years is idiotic (meaning if the decision was purely economic, it's a bad decision to buy a Volt). The only reason someone would buy it would be to wear it as a "green" badge of honor. If you desire to wear that badge, by all means, buy a Volt. But please stop asking me to pitch in to pay for your car.
quote: So let me get this straight, you don't think there should be an incentive, but you outright admit that nobody is going to buy the car (outside of those wanting to wear the green badge) if it costs 40K.
quote: Many of the technological improvements you use everyday, could have been years away if not for government subsidy, just remember that...

COPELAND OAKS has recently implemented a different style of food service for residents in assisted living, and these changes are expected to take effect at Crandall Medical Center next year. It is known as decentralized feeding.
It is a move away from using trays in institutionalized feeding and allows for higher quality food and varied food choices, as well as providing an outlet in which residents can socialize as they eat instead of sitting in their apartments or rooms and eating alone. Residents go to the kitchen for all three meals, and receive their food immediately after it is prepared, ensuring that their meal is hot and fresh.
Decentralized feeding also allows residents to have more control over their food choices and when they would like to eat their meals.
The hope is to see this program fully implemented by the end of 2011.

Evidence clearly shows that family engagement in education promotes student success. And the vast majority of parents (and other family members and guardians) understands that fact and takes educational responsibilities very seriously. So when they are faced with reforms that require changes to their children's school experiences, families rightly raise questions and concerns about how those reforms will impact the learning and life of students.
Recently, one education reform in particular has come under significant scrutiny from a number of different education stakeholders, including families: the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) initiative. Parents have expressed concern about how the standards will impact student testing, classroom rigor, student privacy, what children will read and more. But even in the face of such concerns, one group that has never wavered in its support of the Common Core is the National PTA.
National PTA President Otha Thornton recently took the time to tell us why the organization continues to support the standards and what parents should know about them. He also dispelled some of the myths surrounding the Common Core and shared resources to help parents learn more and support successful implementation of the CCSS in their communities.
Public School Insights (PSI): Why does the National PTA support the Common Core?
Otha Thornton: Since 2009, National PTA has firmly supported the development and implementation of the Common Core State Standards, maintaining that every child deserves a high quality education that prepares him or her for success upon graduation from high school. National PTA is confident that the Common Core State Standards are an essential tool to ensure that America's youth have the opportunity to reach their full potential and become productive members of society. National PTA's position statement on Education Emphasis covers PTA's position on voluntary standards. Specifically, National PTA:
PSI: What are the two or three most important things that parents should know about the Common Core?
Thornton: First, today's workplace requires employees to be able to think on their feet, make decisions and solve problems. As the demand for highly skilled workers continues to increase, it is imperative that America's youth are prepared with critical thinking and reasoning skills necessary to engage in our complex work environments and compete in our global economy. The Common Core State Standards are internationally benchmarked, relevant to the real world and reflect the knowledge and skills students need to compete globally and excel in their studies and the workplace.
Second, as states implement the Common Core, they also are transitioning to new assessments designed to better measure if students are on track for college and career readiness. This is a new system with a new way of scoring, and as a result, it is not possible to compare the new scores directly with the old state assessment scores. What is important is that the higher standards are measured with better tests. Because the rigor is higher, it may appear that scores have temporarily dropped. If this does happen, it does not mean a student is performing worse on the new tests. Educators expect this short-term decline to improve as teachers and students become more familiar with the standards and better equipped to meet the challenges they present.
Third, in a recent survey of teachers, more than 70 percent indicated that they are enthusiastic about the implementation of the Common Core State Standards in their classrooms, believing the standards will hold students and teachers to higher expectations, improve students' ability to think critically and use reasoning skills and provide nationwide consistency in a positive way.
PSI: Some opponents claim that the Common Core requires some states to lower their academic standards. Should parents be concerned that if they live in a state that adopted the Common Core, their children will not be as challenged in school as they used to be?
Thornton: The Common Core State Standards increase rigor in every school and focus on problem solving and critical thinking skills, not solely on knowledge of particular facts that have little relationship to success later in life. College and career-ready standards are critical because even in high-performing states, some students are passing all required tests and graduating, yet still require remediation in their postsecondary work.
On the other hand, another common concern in raising the standards is whether or not it is likely that students will drop out of school. Data does not support this idea and actually shows the opposite — when more is expected of students, they rise to the challenge. In a survey of high school dropouts, two thirds reported that they would have worked harder if more was demanded of them.
PSI: Opponents also claim that the Common Core compromises student privacy – that the federal government will be collecting and storing personally identifiable information about students. Could you set the record straight on this issue? What concerns should parents have about their children's privacy and the Common Core?
Thornton: Common Core is not a mechanism for federal data collection. Federal law, FERPA , prohibits the reporting of aggregate data that could identify individual students. In addition, the federal government does not have access to the student-level information held in state databases. States – as they have always done in the past – have collected student information through state assessments in accordance with state and federal law and will continue these practices under new assessments
PSI: What type of work has PTA done to increase awareness and understanding about the Common Core in general?
Thronton: National PTA remains committed to supporting parents and educators as states transition to the Common Core. Since it began its work on the standards, National PTA and its volunteers nationwide have educated millions of people and conducted trainings for tens of thousands of people on the standards.
PSI: Are there other resources, from PTA or others, that can help parents learn more about the standards?
Thornton: National PTA has developed a wide variety of resources for parents and educators to ensure they are knowledgeable about the standards and new assessments, including the Parent's Guide to Student Success, Common Core State Standards Assessment and Accountability Guides and a webinar series.
The Parent's Guide to Student Success has been used throughout the nation by parents, school districts, community partners and departments of education. The grade-by-grade guide explains the Common Core State Standards and key items that children should be learning in English and math, features activities parents can do at home to support their child's learning, and highlights questions parents can ask their child's teacher.
The Common Core State Standards Assessment and Accountability Guides have been developed for every state that has adopted the standards. The guides feature information in parent-friendly language, including background on the standards and state-specific information about their assessment consortium, the testing timeline, sample test questions, impacts on students, new accountability systems and ways for parents to get involved and support their child's learning at home.
The Parent's Guide to Student Success, Common Core State Standards Assessment and Accountability Guides, and other resources are available at PTA.org/studentsuccess.
PSI: How can parents help ensure successful implementation of the Common Core State Standards?
Thornton: It is essential that parents are actively involved in their child's education. Education is individual for each child, so it is critical that parents find what works best for their child and work with their child's teacher to determine how best to support him or her. It is also important for parents to take the time to learn what is expected for their child during the school year.
Parents should look in their child's backpack every day; frequently view the parent portal (or whichever tool their school uses) and participate at the school when possible; develop a relationship with their child's teacher and keep in touch often; and assist their child with their homework and encourage him or her to read aloud. Parents also can join their local PTA. One of the most important "tools" is the opportunity for parents to connect with other parents who have the same questions, concerns, hopes and dreams for their children.
PSI: Are there any other questions that I should have asked you, but did not?
Thornton: It is important to identify the real cause of concern for the Common Core. Many parents are finding that their concerns are not actually related to the standards, but rather issues surrounding implementation (teacher training, aligning curriculum) and assessments (testing schedule, accountability, privacy).
It also is important for parents to know that the Common Core only set expectations for what students must know to leave school prepared for college and careers. The standards do not dictate the details of academic curriculum. States, districts and teachers remain in control of curriculum and assessment decisions.
Each state has unique challenges, but it is important not to back away from demanding the highest expectations of our children via the Common Core State Standards. The road will be bumpy, but we cannot allow these challenges to undermine this strong bipartisan effort to raise the bar for all children.

Thank you for this clear and compelling article! We need parents to understand that the standards will help our kids. They just make sense. Example: Use evidence to backup your claims. Yes! What person does not need to be able to write or speak a valid, well-researched argument? It's good teaching and good skills for our kids to learn.
It appears that now the PTA represents the state's interests and not that of the parents. Common Core is not designed to be successful. In concept, it is a good idea, but if not implemented correctly and with adequate study of success parameters...it will fail. I do not use your statistics to make my decisions and do not buy in to your rhetoric. My son is a Sophomore who has always LOVED math, always been in accelerated math classes and always made A's in math .... until the last 2 years where he struggles with the concepts and teaching styles. This is Common Core....it removes the ability of the teacher and student to reach success through application of age old rules of mathematics and the "LOGIC" that was once mathematics. I will now spend my PTA dues on something useful like a math tutor who can interpret the crap you are trying to sell to our HONOR students!
Responsible organizations and individuals, while expressing sincere opposing views on this thing called Common Core, generally agree that the key to real education is on going parental involvement.
Definitions will differ as to just what "parental involvement" means, but the major question seems to be how is parental involvement to be achieved.
It is a fact that too many parents are not and will not actually become effectively involved unless they are "forced" to do so.
An effective force could involve some form of monetary penality for parental failure to comply with some local, state of federal requirement, but this would beadditional infriengment by government into the area of individual or parental rights. While award instead of penality is also a possibility, awards would likely involve tax payers' funds.
How can effective parental incentives be presented without government fiat?

If life is like a box of chocolates, as someone once observed, then Daniel Bosch has just located the Godiva truffles. In September, Bosch, 36, a writing instructor at Harvard, beat out 1,600 other contestants to win the first annual poetry contest (and a $1,000 prize) sponsored by the prestigious Boston Review. His winning entries, a quartet of poems written in 1997: "Philadelphia Starring Tom Hanks," "Big Starring Tom Hanks," "Apollo 13 Starring Tom Hanks" and "Forrest Gump Starring Tom Hanks."
The titles, Bosch admits, are a bit of Tomfoolery, meant to attract readers to abstract poems having little to do with the films. Bosch (who doesn't own a TV) respects Hanks as an actor but calls Gump "a bad film" and only caught Apollo 13 on an airplane, minus headphones. "I have a feeling I didn't miss very much," he says. But, he notes, "Tom Hanks is going to be remembered."
Which is what Bosch wants as well. "I've been doing one thing for 30 years—writing poetry," he says. "I don't have many things I care so much about." Growing up in Los Altos, Calif., he began scribbling rhymes at age 5 "as a way of coping with stress." Son of an insurance salesman, the only one of six children to graduate from college, he earned a master's degree in creative writing from Boston University in 1991 and joined Harvard's faculty last year.
Bosch, who is separated from his wife, shares an on-campus apartment with daughter Michaela, 5. "She loves rhyming games," he says. "We have a strong bond over language." He might want to consider using some of that prize money to buy a TV. After all, Saving Private Ryan should be on cable soon.

UNH collects warm clothing for needy
Project run out of Manchester millyard
UPDATED 6:18 PM EST Nov 08, 2012
A group of volunteers working out of the University of New Hampshire-Manchester are helping some people stay warm this winter.
The Warmth from the Millyard project collects warm clothing and distributes it to organizations that help the needy.
This is the sixth year for the effort, which hopes to collect 1,500 items of clothing.
Organizers said they are collecting any slightly used piece of warm clothing. They said there is a large demand for blankets and sleeping bags, as well as jackets and hats for youngsters.
The last day for collection at UNH-Manchester is Nov. 16.

IF YOU WENT back and looked at the league's scouting evaluations of Trent Cole before the 2005 draft, you likely would see the same two words on almost every one of those reports: high motor.
He wasn't the fastest linebacker/defensive end in that draft, and at 6-2 and just 236 pounds at the time, he certainly wasn't the biggest.
But he was an effort player who knew only one speed. That was true then. It still is true nine NFL seasons later.
That jet-engine motor of his helped him go from a fifth-round nobody to an NFL starter. It helped him go from a starter to a Pro Bowler to a guy with more sacks than any Eagles player in history save for late Hall of Famer Reggie White.

Oswego, NY – A woman and her 2-year-old son passing by on an Oswego sidewalk were hit by one of two cars that collided this morning at West Fifth and West Albany streets.
Here's what happened, according to Oswego police:
Shortly before 9:10 a.m., a 2000 Chrysler Concord being driven east on West Albany Street collided with a 2008 Kia going north West Fifth Street.
The impact pushed the Concord onto the sidewalk, where the car struck Jennifer L. Gates, 25, of Oswego. She was pushing a stroller in which her son was riding and the stroller was hit, too.
Gates and her son were taken to Upstate University Hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries. Gates was listed in good condition this afternoon, a hospital spokeswoman said. The hospital could not release the child's condition because police had not provide the boy's name.
The occupants of the vehicles were unhurt, police said. They included Aaron Callahan, 18, of Oswego, the driver of the Concord; Jenna Kain, 26, of Oswego, the driver of the Kia; and Kain's two children.
Callahan was ticketed for failure to yield the right of way, police said. Investigators have ruled out alcohol involvement but are checking other possible contributing factors, officials said.

Medical Center Auxiliary donates $121,000 to Hospital Programs
St. Mary Medical Center Auxiliary presented a check of $121,000 for their annual donation to the hospital. Funds will be used to support new cardiovascular technology and student scholarships. Pictured from left to right are: John Gorski, COO, Community Healthcare System; Janice Ryba, CEO, St. Mary Medical Center; JoAnn Ventura, president of the Auxiliary and Fay Iorio, vice president.
HOBART — St. Mary Medical Center Auxiliary has made a $121,000 donation to fund new cardiovascular services technology and healthcare student scholarships. In the last decade, the Auxiliary has donated nearly $1.5 million to the growing hospital and its patient care initiatives.
This year, the contribution went toward the purchase of an Ilumien PCI Optimization System that will improve the ability of cardiologists to evaluate vessel blockage through better intravascular imaging procedures.
"Technology such as this is vital to maintaining our outstanding level of care," said Janice Ryba, CEO of St. Mary Medical Center. "Combined with the comfort and support of volunteers, our patients know they are receiving the best health care available in Northwest Indiana."

You're making one of the worst dietary choices possible. Beans are poisonous to the body and you shouldn't eat them, both because they're full of anti-nutrients and because they are full of carbohydrates, neither of which are good for you.
Eat meat, eggs and lots of good saturated fats like butter and coconut oil, as well as leafy greens and non-starchy vegetables. That will make you lose weight without doing much exercise - although you should exercise, too, because your body needs it.
