Medical giants stride pages of new book
Images of The Neuro is literary eyewitness to medical history
In a new collection of insightful essays and selected photos, one of Canada's most eminent medical figures, Dr. William Feindel, shines a personal light on the world-famous institution that he headed for 12 years, the Montreal Neurological Institute and Hospital – The Neuro, McGill University, as well as on some giants of medicine like Osler, Willis, Gilbert and Penfield.
Feindel's 25 essays are the fruit of 70 years of association with The Neuro. He gives a unique eyewitness perspective of The Neuro's early years and in particular to the work of its founder, Dr. Wilder Penfield, who was Feindel's mentor and collaborator. A fascinating essay describes how the two men developed the Montreal Procedure, a surgical treatment for epilepsy that has been adopted around the world. Feindel also brings to life the excitement that he and his colleagues felt when The Neuro acquired Canada's first brain imaging scanners, which gave them windows into the brain that were previously unimaginable.
With a historian's eye for detail, Feindel also reveals major figures of the more distant past like Sir William Osler, the outstanding Canadian physician who helped raise huge sums for McGill University's teaching hospitals, including notably The Neuro.
Feindel also brings his medical expertise to bear on assessments of two British medical pioneers, Thomas Willis, the 17th century physician who coined the term, "neurology," and William Gilbert, the 16th century doctor who first used the word "electricity."
Dr. Feindel, who is 95 and still working at The Neuro, is an Officer of the Order of Canada, Grand Officier de l'Ordre national du Québec, a member of the Academie des Grand Montrealais, was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, inducted into the Canadian Medical Hall of Fame in 2003, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. An annual Lectureship in Neurosurgery at The Neuro and an endowed Professorship in Neuro-Oncology at McGill have been established in his name.
Book launch will take place prior to the 2013 William Feindel Lecture on December 17, 2013:
3:30 pm Book launch: Images of the Neuro – Dr William Feindel
4:00 pm 2013 William Feindel Lecture

Artists turn Fond du Lac Ave. into their canvas
In 1842, Johnsons Park was a farm where escaped slave Caroline Quarlls stayed, marking the start of the Underground Railroad in the area. A century after that pocket of the city harbored slaves seeking freedom, and a generation after homes in the neighborhood were razed to make way for a freeway, dislocation remains an ongoing issue for many living and working in and around a swath of Fond du Lac Ave., according to the organizers of a community-driven, yearlong public art project.
The public art initiative along 20 blocks of Fond du Lac Ave., between N. 17th and 37th streets, is designed to help Milwaukeeans rediscover this once vital artery and its history while engaging with artists and each other. »Read Full Article

Theatre Unchained's 'Foreigner' a perfectly fitting Shue
Larry Shue's "The Foreigner" ostensibly involves a culture clash between a quirky Brit and southern bigots in a Georgian fishing lodge, where Charlie morphs from pathologically shy English nebbish into improbable hero.
But while watching the enjoyable "Foreigner," being staged by Theatre Unchained under John Baiocchi's direction, I realized as never before that Shue's play is also about the clash between literal-minded killjoys and the transforming world of theater, which regularly takes actor and audience into undiscovered countries they'd never otherwise visit. »Read Full Article

HELPSY was founded in 2012 the belief that design-forward, cutting-edge fashion can have a positive social impact—100% of the time. Sometimes it just takes a discerning eye and a little hunting.
If crunchy lifestyles and yoga pants come to mind when you think of ethical fashion, you're not alone. Founded in 2012, HELPSY's mission is to curate apparel, beauty products, home goods, and tech accessories that are as cool as they are eco-friendly and ethically produced.
Wednesday, April, 24 2013, a month after HELPSY launched, Rana Plaza in Bangladesh collapsed. This factory housed numerous western clothing production contracts but it was built on swamp land and had cracks in the walls. One day the cracks became really bad, but the factory owners wouldn't let the scared workers, who were mostly women and children, out. Keeping them inside the building by hitting them with clubs, nearly 1200 humans died that day, crushed under the rubble of a factory making fast fashion for Westerners, so we could have the latest trends as cheaply and quickly as possible. When we started HELPSY, we knew it was only a matter of time before a tragedy like this occurred, but we had no idea it would be so soon and at such a large scale.
What we did know is that the fashion industry is the second most polluting industry in the world, next to oil. From seed to hanger the fashion production chain is a long, complicated global one. Many, many hands go into making clothes -- from the farms where textiles are grown to factories where clothes are put together. With today's incredible speed of consumption and the complicated global production chains, things have gotten pretty messy and some companies have abused this complicated system to make clothes cheaper at the expense people and the planet, burying and hiding their missteps along the way. Human Rights abuses are rampant and the environmental impact of dyes, material waste, and pesticides from textile production is incomparable, next to the oil industry.
HELPSY's primary goal is to offer you fun things that you want to buy, proving thoughtful design can be cool and not at all boring. But while we do so, we strive for transparency, giving you as much information as possible about how our curated products were made and by whom, so you can make educated choices. Since March of 2013 we have grown to carry over 80 ethical fashion and lifestyle designers from all over the globe. Everything we carry falls under at least 4 of 13 ethical qualities we call HELPSY Qualities. Perfection is nearly impossible but we are always striving for better and to be honest and transparent with our customer. We are activists, not just a store, and we want to be part of a positive change that will take time and all of us, the businesses and the consumers, working together. #BeThatDopeChange
|Rachel Van Metre Kibbe, founder of HELPSY, is currently based in New York City and was raised in Shaker Heights, Ohio. With a degree in Fashion Design from Parsons and a B.A. in Creative Writing and Spanish from Emory University, she apprenticed under labels such as Alexander Wang and Jack Spade. When she isn't running HELPSY, she consults other companies regarding how to improve their supply chains. Rachel wants to be part of a positive change in the fashion industry without sacrificing edge or visual appeal. Rachel hopes HELPSY can provide a unique, educational (and fun!) platform for this change.

Nexus One not coming to Verizon, Droid Incredible takes its place
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Corporate News, Handhelds
If you're a Verizon Wireless customer that was waiting on the Nexus One's arrival before upgrading, looks like you'll have to make a slight change of plans. Google has just made it known that, despite announcing that the Nexus One would hit Verizon soon, it is now dead. Instead, they recommend that you go with the Droid Incredible instead. At first glance, that may come across as lame, but the fact is that the Droid Incredible is a better phone than the Nexus One, so we have to give kudos to Google for recognizing the work that was put into the phone by HTC. We will have more on the Droid Incredible later today, as we are currently playing around with one in the Gear Live Review Labs.

Dell Streak 7 and 10-inch tablets leaked!
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Handhelds, Rumors
Dell looks to be jumping into the Android tablet game headfirst with their Streak tablets that have just been revealed. They look similar to the Dell Mini 5, but bigger and more in line with what Apple is offering with the iPad, and this is a good thing. As you can see, you get the black bezel, the large display, and the photo app even looks similar to what you'd find on the iPad. Engadget says that the Streak 5 should hit stores this summer, while the Streak 7 should be available later this year (likely the fall, if you ask us.) The Dell Streak 10 won't likely appear until 2011 though. Sure, that sucks for those that want the largest Android tablet that Dell has to offer, but having a 7-inch model out there gives a nice alternative for those that want something smaller than a 9.7-inch iPad. These Android tablets can't come fast enough.

Nexus One coming to Sprint
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Corporate News, Google, Handhelds
Just yesterday we let you know that the Nexus One had made it to AT&T and Rogers Wireless, and that it would be hitting Verizon this Spring. Well, Sprint, not wanted to be left out of the party, announced today that the Nexus One would be coming to their network as well! They have no price, nor a release date, but hey - at least now we know that Google's flagship device will be available soon on all four major US wireless carriers. That's gotta count for something, right?

Nexus One now compatible with AT&T and Rogers Wireless!
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Cell Phones, Corporate News, Google, Handhelds, Wireless / WiFi
Looks like Google is finally ready to be serious with the Nexus One. As of today, the device is fully compatible with AT&T 3G, as well as Canada's Rogers Wireless 3G bands. Previously, you could use the Nexus One with those carriers, but you wouldn't be able to get 3G speeds, so you were relegated to the much slower EDGE network. You can purchase the new model, which is the same as the upcoming Verizon and currently available T-Mobile Nexus One units in every other way, as an unlocked device without a service plan, directly from Google for $529.

SXSW 2010: Playing with Place - Location-aware games
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Editorial, Features, GPS, Video Games
Katheryn started off the session giving us geo location coordinates that only a machine would love. Her followup to this was the context matters; our location around a place and who is around that space with us. There is also excitement around discovery with geo. An example could be geocache games which created back in the old old black and white LCD "latitude and longitude" GPS units and have worked their way into the App stores of the iPhone and Android handsets.
Although location is in its infancy, Foursquare has opened their APIs and sites like gatsby.com are using location data + user preferences to send SMS messages to those who are in proximity with one another and could potentially benefit in meeting up in real life. While this leads to privacy issues, it is opt-in and could let "regular strangers" connect and communicate in ways that they might night work up the courage to in the physical world.

Steve Jobs hates Google CEO Eric Schmidt?
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Google, Rumors, Videos
Those are some strong words, but if CNBC journalists and analysts are to be believed, the relationship between Apple and Google is so strained as they both compete to win in the mobile space that it has come to a point where "Steve Jobs simply hates Eric Schmidt." Hey, if that hared fuels the fire of innovation and competition, then it's the consumers who will walk away the winners in this battle. Amiright?

Posted by Finnian Durkan Categories: Cell Phones, Handhelds, Portable Audio / Video
Damaka has announced the release of its Live Video Streaming solution for laptops and certain BlackBerry and Android devices. So, while EMT's with BlackBerry and Android phones will be able to keep attending physicians in the ER in the loop as to an incoming patient's condition with real-time video updates, woe betide the unlucky EMT who has a crap data plan or an iPhone.
Damaka's Live Video Streaming solution, as they're calling it, provides instant communication of video and voice via an encrypted channel that includes session archival & annotation features. Live video streaming is also able to be transmitted to multiple receiving devices over WiFi /3G / 4G network depending on the device.

First HD Video Converting Software for Multi-track HD Released, Free for Limited Time
Posted by Finnian Durkan Categories: HDTV, Software
Digiarty Software has announced the release of WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe, the first converter to support multi-track HD videos. WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe builds in 160 video and 50 audio codecs. This means that, no matter the codec (a piece of software that allows for digital compression/decompression) that you prefer based on your own personal needs/choices regarding video quality vs. file size. Without any third-party codecs, WinX can also easily support Multi-track HD video, such as BDAV, M2TS, MKV, AVCHD, HDTV and MPEG-TS video movies. It also supports converting all the HD and HD-Camcorder videos, to both portable and console players, such as iPad, iPod, iPhone, Apple TV, PS3, PSP, Xbox, Zune, PDA, Blackberry, Nokia, Android, Zen, and many others. On top of all of this, WinX is also able to convert your HD videos at 5x-15x speed, making converting your videos not only easy but much, much faster.
So while you yourself may not be HD ready, what with your unsightly blemishes, pores big enough to serve guacamole out of, and makeup that looks like it was applied using a snow-blower, your videos are; that's on you for buying a product that so greatly highlights all of your many shortcomings. I'll be over here with my beta-max shoulder-camcorder and boom-mike, making videos that blur to the point of resembling impressionistic art, thank you very much. But, if you've already taken the leap to HD, the WinX HD Video Converter Deluxe is available for a free download at the link below.

AisleBuyer intros new mobile app - checkout lines obsolete?
Posted by Finnian Durkan Categories: Cell Phones, Handhelds
To buy online, or to brave the the crowds of sharp-elbowed, pushy bargain hunters at your local Nordstrom/GAP/Barnes & Noble/Lover's Packa—Macy's? It is the eternal question: do you purchase from the safety and security of your own home, eschewing any ability to try on the clothes or flip through the book that you are about to purchase, or do you strap on your helmet and elbow-pads and, head down, make ready for battle at your local fashion outlet? Well, AisleBuyer is trying to make the question moot by offering the best of both worlds.
Today at the National Retail Federation Retail Innovation and Marketing Conference in San Francisco, CA AisleBuyer is offering a sneak preview of its new mobile app that promises to make waiting in line a thing of the past. When entering a store, shoppers who have iPhones and Android devices will be able to download the AisleBuyer app and use it to scan items for product information, reviews and more. When they are ready to purchase, they can checkout instantly using the same app. Shoppers can also browse online product reviews, and AisleBuyer will also provide helpful hints, such as suggestions for purchases that work with, but are not included in, their purchase (i.e. batteries or SIM Cards). Add to this the fact that you save trees by not producing a receipt and you can rest assured that children of hippies will be buying this app in droves to offset their lithium-ion battery usage… I'm looking at you, environmentally-conscious/ironic Prius-owners.

Nice park. Small and bathrooms were easily accessible. There were only three stalls and there were lines each morning waiting for showers. Bathrooms are inside with the showers but there are extra bathrooms near the fun park.
Fun park was on the expensive side. We hoped that more things were included, like the pumpkin painting and s'mores roasting, but they were all extra costs.
Overall it was a nice park, but costly.
Our site was on a slight slant. - HeFFeR718

No other reason to stay here other than for a night or two to see the caverns. Not much to the RV park. Extremely small. Unlevel crushed stone pads and odd layout. We stayed in site #2, but sites 1, 2, and 3 are all in a row so if you had someone staying in any of the other sites you would be unable to pull thru. The playground badly needs updating. Mature trees were a plus, but no fire pits. Bathrooms/showers worked, but lots of spider webs in them. Cavern tour is nice, but the rest of the "attractions" are overpriced and need maintenance. This is an alcohol free park. - Cap'n G

"Interesting" doesn't even come close to describing this park. In the 70s and 80s, we could easily see this being a "destination" park. Now it has all the charm of a large "outdated" playground. During our stay, we were the only rig, other than a "permanent". Restrooms are ¾ style bathrooms. Laundry facilities are a single washer and dryer set up in the community area kitchen. Cost is $1.75 per unit. Sites are small and very uneven. Maintenance seems to be a major problem in both the "amusement park" and campground. Internet was free and slow when you got a connection. As it is an unsecured connection, it is obvious the neighbors take full advantage of it. Television is antenna or satellite. Had no issues with cell phone service. Rate shown is Passport America weekly rate divided by 7. Doubt we will stay here again. - Full-Timer RV'er

This campground was clean and safe. It is pretty far off any main roads but they were fairly easily traveled so long as you don't lose your GPS signal which is always a concern when traveling in the country. Be sure to fill up because there aren't many fuel stops and even less with diesel. The hosts were extremely nice and the campground was "ok". Sites were close together. No privacy and they were not very level. No water views and nothing much to do. No cable. No wi-fi. At least 15-20 miles away from any sort of attractions. This seems to be a seasonal vacation spot as there were many permanent set ups but nicely done. Not trashy like some. We were booked to stay 2 nights but left after only one because of the lackluster surroundings. Unless there is something specific you are doing in the area I would say keep moving. I always hate to leave a mediocre or poor review when the people are so nice but unfortunately we would not be back here again. - freedmskr

On lake shore. Site A7 (I think - it backed up to power line) $30/night. Sit was spacious, partially shaded. Barely able to get level, but finally did. Power line made great dog walk. Trails in woods also good dog walking.
Park is clean and attractive. Be sure you talk to them if you have a big rig. It would be a challenge to get into some areas.
Most sites in the park are owned and have park models and trailers semi-permanently installed. Limited number of rental sites.
No cable, no WIFI, adequate OTA reception, good AT&T.
Pretty remote from shopping. Heavy train activity all night. No road noise at all. Nice pool, small beach on the lake. Dated but clean showers; small laundry looked OK but we didn't use it.
Roads are mostly gravel and fairly narrow with some ruts. It looks like the drainage is being worked on and is overdue. - bobcovey

Very nice people running the park. Fantastic lake on site, good fishing no license required. Pull through sites need better access, roads a little narrow and rutted out due to heavy rains in area. We will stay there again. - Hardcorps628

I checked in at the gas station (Chevron) where the campground registration is and was waited on right away. I was assigned site #9, which is the closest to the lake as you can get. Site was a pull thru and just long enough for my 25 foot motorhome and car trailer to fit. View was fantastic and it was very quiet as I was siting alone from the other RV's in the campground. Full hookup worked just fine even with temps hovering around low 30's. If you are a boating enthusiast, there are docks for you to tie up at. There is a landing right there along with a snack bar. Gas station is a mini-mart, there is a liquor store and other amenities on site. Grounds were patrolled by employees in a pickup truck during the day and into the evening and I would assume during the night (I didn't stay up to make sure). Had good TV reception via antenna and Verizon phone worked just fine. I stayed for 2 nights and I would come back here again. - Bobber

The park is nice but we did not enjoy it as much as when we were here before. Previously we stayed in Oct. for a night. The view was spectacular & the park was not crowded. This time it was summer & there were a lot of 5th wheels & campers for the fishing & boating. We could barely see the lake because all the spaces at the water's edge were taken with long term guests. The view was clear in Oct. When we arrived they told us to pick any spot we wanted. We barely made it around the perimeter of the park because there was a repair shop working on boats that were blocking the way. That wasn't the case in Oct. either. This is a great place for launching a boat. If that's what you are looking for come during the summer. If it is a quiet peaceful stay with beautiful views come during the off season. - Connie's Co-Owner
Sep 2013 - $24.00
Nice lakefront. We were passing through for one night only. The place was pretty empty so we chose site 5. Tight pull through with our 45' + tow. No shade or privacy between sites. Some permanents. It isn't worth going back and risking damage to our RV electrical system. We had to run our gen all night due to faulty electric hookup. There was no one qualified to help. - YOLO13

This is an Alabama State Park campground located 10-12 miles south of Birmingham. Convenient to shopping and restaurants from either the south or north park entrance. We spent 3 nights on the A side of the campground. Nice, tranquil setting. We were assigned a "pull along" site for our motorhome and toad. I wanted to get a site where trees would not block my roof mounted satellite and they gave me a site that worked well, however, the pad had deep tracks of broken asphalt. Full hookups with 30 amp electric service. Site A22. Paid $31.63 per night with taxes and fees. - Coopsecondact
Mar 2016 - $29.00
Nice state park. Some sites are small for big rigs, but most will accommodate them. Sites are level and paved with asphalt. Sewer connections and electrical good location. Some sites do not have sewer. Most on the A side do. The B side looks like that sites are close and not all have sewer. Lots of trees and shade. During stay severe weather was expected. Rangers and staff came to every campsite with information about shelters, radio and TV stations to use for updated weather reports. They were very concerned about guest safety. We will stay again. - bowl2764
Feb 2016 - $30.00
Average, older State Park. All except a few sites on the B side are pretty bad - too closely spaced and unlevel. The A side is better spacing, but still a little tight. Some sites on the A side are really unlevel front to back. Pull through sites are short. Watch out for "backward sites", there are quite a few.
This CG looks like it is a formerly "all tent" CG, and they ran utilities to some of the parking spaces for the tent sites. Typically, the RV parking space is narrow, and the "sitting area" for the associated RV site is separated from the RV. Sometimes as much as 100 feet. And, some of the tent sites that could not be converted are still there. So, it makes for a strange layout, because the tent sites are scattered among, and between, the RV sites.
The bathrooms are functional but small, in need of updating, but relatively clean.
Most sites in the A area are full hookup, but only 30 amp power. Water pressure was 40 psi, Verizon coverage = 3/5 bars, satellite availability is varied because of a heavy tree coverage. Good local TV stations.
Excellent large park with lots to do for the kids - beach, hiking/bike trails, BMX track, fishing, etc. Also, tons of shopping within close driving range of the park.
I will not stay at Oak Mountain again unless I need close access to Birmingham, and then, only if I can get a decent site on the A side. - Bama Camper

This is a quiet little park. All grass but clean. Friendly owner. We were in 43 foot motor home. Nothing fancy but good to stay while traveling. Highway noise during busy travel but not bad. Feels safe. We would stay again. Going to races and she said she doesn't raise her rent for races. I would give it a higher rate if they had pads for Rv. We don't use bath houses so that doesn't matter to us. - Pam_Ricky

Basically a field with hook-ups. Power and water pressure are good. The sites are not level and our water valve box housed a mound of fire ants. The road noise level is very high. We were the only transient guests this particular day and shared the campground with a handful of very run-down full time trailers. Price reflects PA discount. - Full-Time Roamers
Sep 2008 - $15.00
This is a new campground and the owner's are just getting the campground running. There are about 15 level sites that are on grass with some gravel. The roads are gravel.

We stayed here so we could visit the Talladega Race Museum and track. - Traveller101

We were planning to stay 2 weeks but then called to go elsewhere for work, so only stayed 1 night. Teresa was super friendly, park was rustic but good walking path and lots of geese and ducks. Restrooms and laundry area needed a little work but were fine for use. Very hilly park but that was good since there was no pooling of water from rain. We would definitely stay again pending work area assigned. - witchey1

Winding road to campground/conference center was narrow but decent, but the road to the office was abysmal!!! If I'd had false teeth, they'd have been on the floor!!! No way of dodging potholes either. Site was adequate for an overnight stay (which was in a specific area for overnighters) but had to level with boards and couldn't pull forward to turn when leaving because of post, tree across the way, etc. Luckily we were able to back up. Would look for another option if ever in the area again. - KarenK

Pretty much nothing here but a place to park. Most are full time. Good water and elect. The problem is that is has been raining and I was all most getting out.

If it is raining stay away. - neilontheroad

Two things in the name of the place are correct - it's located in Alabama & it is creekside. The sites are on the grass. So thankful that it had not rained when we were staying. The grass needed to be cut.
We were only passing through, didn't use any of the facilities. We did walk over to look at the creek. It's busy with kayakers, tubers & canoers. - 3catstravel

No shade, lots of grass/weeds, no tables. No WiFi or cable. Some digital over the air channels. DirecTV came in good. Sprint coverage poor. Good location to Speedway. Owner/manager has off leash dogs that run the place. She does not have voice control over them so take your chances that they do not conflict with your dogs. - beach89bum
Feb 2012 - $30.00
This place needs a lot of TLC. It's hard to find at night: signage is difficult to see. The middle RV sites are all badly hollowed into the grass, so after a rain they were pretty wet. Fortunately, the only gravel/level site (#21) was open. Many of the electric boxes appeared to be damaged or had covers missing. But it's quiet (except for the neighborhood dogs who bark at any movement, and seem to run loose at times) and the shower was nice enough (and clean). It IS close to the Talladega track (we saw closer RV Parks, but guess they are only open for race weekends?) Wi-Fi was quirky: didn't work in the evening, but worked the following morning. - Deb344

With golden buckles and black denim straps, the plain-Jane jeans get a subversive kick in the nads with hardware that's a little quirky, a little tough, but House of Holland through and through. We're especially feeling the cut-out denim jacket, which is a much cooler than most we've seen, but we might suggest breaking up the outfit (one jean at a time, please!) to avoid looking like an extra at a barn raising.

Seventy-two teachers are second-round finalists for the upcoming Microsoft U.S. Innovative Education Forum (IEF) in Redmond, WA July 28-29, 2011. The IEF is produced by Microsoft Partners in Learning as the definitive venue for educators to connect their classroom innovative practices in learning and technology with their peers across the nation. The second round finalists add to the 38 educators from the first round finalists that will be coming to Microsoft's headquarters to showcase their approaches to learning and exchange ideas to remix education.
Effective teaching matters more than anything in our schools today. Even more, teachers are arguably the single most significant difference-maker in a child's academic career.
So imagine if a student you know had over 100 of the most innovative teachers for their entire learning career.
What kind of schools would we create for these students?
How much more ready and agile would they be for the world of work and life-long learning?
Well, if you ask Elsa Holm, third grade bilingual teacher and Erika Timmons, school counselor from Ginnings Elementary School in North Texas, they will show how students can reach beyond their borders to the world to learn about and experience careers that would not have been possible just a generation ago.
Mrs. Elsa Holm, Third Grade Teacher, Ginnings Elementary School
Using the Internet voice/video communications tool, Skype (Microsoft recently announced its intent to acquire Skype,) Holm's third graders connect with professionals from Latin America to have an opportunity to both practice speaking Española while discovering careers and cultures beyond the United States. Ms. Holm's third graders are getting a big jump on learning international business before attending graduate school.
Going global was just the beginning for this third grade class. All of the students took on collaborative roles to produce a video project about various careers and professions. The students formed teams to produce an interview script for their career mentors, another team of presenters to bridge all of the stories together, videography team, art and design team, editors, and production assistants. Each student had a vital role to play in making their learning experience both engaging and successful.
Holm used a variety of educational technologies that are free and low-costs to make this accessible to teachers and students everywhere—especially in these tough financial times. Moreover, Holm and Timmons provided the coaching and enablement for students to owned their learning and be an active participant in the process.
Third grade is such a critical stage of learning and Holm's bilingual students are getting meaningful, immersive experiences and building confidence that will prepare them well-beyond the grades ahead. You can learn more at Elsa Holm's blog.
Holms and Timmons will join 70 educators from Alaska, Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Missouri, North Carolina, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washington, and the District of Columbia as second-round finalists for the US IEF.
Congratulations to all of the new finalists and I will see you in Redmond, WA.

This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
Resident Evil used to be my all time favorite gaming series. Once 4 came out and changed the series, I wasn't a fan anymore.
This. 4, 5, & 6 really aren't RE games.
Personally, I enjoyed 2 the most.

The older RE games were only scary because of garbage controls and lack of ammo. Sure, it's a lot scarier when your character walks and runs like a slow moving, crippled tank and you have zombies and other sorts running after you.
RE4 was a much better designed game. The "zombies" weren't the same, and that took away from the scare factor, but it was a better game.

You shouldn't judge the game based on the intro. It does have lots of QTEs, but when you actually start campaigns, you get a good 30-40 mins of gameplay consistently before a 2 minute segment with QTE comes. For a third person shooter, it's a really good game and even better in co-op. I just wish they didn't give it a RE name. They have lost track of what made the games famous in the first place. It's Capcom, they have been screwing up their franchises lately. I miss their PS1 to early PS2 days when every game they made was awesome.

It's like an arguable bigger version of RE5. Whether that's a good thing or a bad thing is up to you. expect nothing more or less.
But it's a lot less. Hell it lacks the upgrade system that made 4 and 5 so fun to replay.

I don't understand how people can like RE5 but then dislike RE6.
Sure, the actual game mechanics are better, but that doesn't necessarily make it a better game when everything else sucks.

Well I think it does. I will definitely agree with people that the story and action sequences are incredibly over the top and stupid, but the improved gunplay makes the game so much better than RE5 which people seem to deem the "better game".
The way I see it is:
RE5 = average story, terrible gunplay
RE6 = terrible story, good gunplay
And since I am more interested in an entertaining game and not a story, RE6 does the job better. At least that is my take on it anyway. I am not saying RE6 is the greatest Resident Evil game, but to say that RE5 is the better game of the two is wrong.

Tempered Duralex Picardie DOF Glasses Set of 4
Reviewed by 1 customer
Comments about Tempered Duralex Picardie DOF Glasses Set of 4:
These are real Duralex Picardie glasses which are commonly used for lattes and flat whites in Australian cafes. Sturdy, stackable and easy to grip. Perfect for a 7.5 oz beverage. FYI, these glasses hold 8 oz when filled to the brim, not 8.75 oz as stated. I ordered a set on worldmarket.com. The product was packaged in recycled/recyclable paper, with only 2 small squares of bubble wrap in between the glasses. Thumbs up for that!

How attached are you to your smartphone and other gadgets? If the thought of leaving your gadgets behind or turned off for the holidays makes you twitch, don't worry, you are not alone. But if you find that you can't make it through a family dinner without scrolling through Facebook or Instagramming your meal, you may need to step away from the gadgets for a few days. Think it may be time for a digital diet? Here are 10 signs that you need to unplug:
10. You didn't hear what your daughter just said so you asked her to "retweet" it.
9. When you hear an iPhone ping, you have to check your phone. Even if the sound is coming from the other side of the room (or store or restaurant) and you know it's not yours. And even if you don't have an iPhone.
8. Or, you hear and feel phantom phone tones and vibrations (and of course, you have to check your phone each time.)
7. You can't go to the bathroom without your smartphone.
6. The thought of forgetting your phone at home gives you an anxiety attack.
5. You use terms such as 'LOL,' and '#hashtag,' as part of your everyday vocabulary
4. You spend more time Instagramming, Tweeting, and Facebooking in the evenings than you do actually enjoying the people that you are with.
3. Your distance vision is becoming blurry from lack of use.
2. Your thumbs are becoming numb from overuse.
And the number one sign that you need to unplug for a few days:
1. You don't know how to look up a phone number, contact a friend, or find directions to a location without using your smartphone.

On the Spiritual Path (Book 6)Intuition can be cultivated by building an awareness of how your microcosmic inner self is a small but perfectly formed representation of the macrocosm outside.

On the Spiritual Path (Book 4)It is natural for people to shy away from the reality of death. The fear of dying is the root fear of all fears. Yet this refusal to acknowledge the impermanence of our earthly existence creates a deep anxiety that inhibits a person's spiritual progress. Put another way, if we are to progress on the spiritual path, it is necessary to fully accept the impermanence of life and the certainty of death

A huge black truck with government plates blocked one side of the alley in Camden. A towering red tarpaulin covered the other.
In the middle, the FBI and Camden County investigators were at work. Using gloves, helmets, and an excavator, they scoured the alley and searched a basement near North Third and Erie Streets in the city's Cooper's Poynt neighborhood.
What, if anything, authorities found remained unknown Tuesday. But a law enforcement source said the operation, led by Camden County authorities, was tied to a decade-old cold case.
Details of the case were not yet known. The Camden County Prosecutor's Office and FBI declined to comment, other than to say they were in the area.

by Data Domain
Jan 05, 2009
In many companies today, Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS) 2007 is being deployed to provide a portal for centralized information sharing. SharePoint enables business collaboration by combining file-based content with unstructured content, such as blog entries and discussion threads, and storing it all in databases. Portal services and Office applications can then leverage the capabilities of the SQL relational database engine to access this information in powerful new ways.
The complexity of the SharePoint application deployment can rise quickly in larger organizations. As more corporate data is organized into SharePoint, the more business critical this application becomes. Data Domain deduplication storage provides easy integration and simplified disaster recovery to ensure that this data is protected and recoverable, both on and off-site, in a cost-effective manner.
This paper focuses on data protection strategies for Microsoft SharePoint systems, and highlights how to best leverage the capabilities of Data Domain deduplication storage.
Topics discussed include:
� Microsoft Sharepoint Architecture Overview
� Defining Retention as a Service Level for Sharepoint Data Protection
� Sharepoint Data Protection Best Practices
