dRummie wrote:O-Cha order arrived I'd ordered the beginner's kit for my first of all the basics, and tried it out today with the delicious Yutaka Midori. I brewed 2.8g in ~100mL, going off Chip's parameters in this post. First try at verbalizing my impressions, so bear with me.
1st infusion (60s @ 158* into pre-heated kyusu) was a tad weak, although all the flavours (vegetal, marine, umami) were coming through without a hint of bitterness. The leaves smelled amazing, strongly, with all the same flavours. As the brew cooled, more of the tastes came out, I'm guessing as the particles in the cup continued to infuse. I decided to run the 2nd infusion on the longer side...
2nd infusion (30s @ 165*) - fantastic. The brew was much fuller, with a brothy mouthfeel and stronger umami. The taste was on the cusp of bitterness - not there yet, but just around the corner, wonderfully balanced. The brew did not improve as it cooled - on the contrary, the flavour moved towards "fishy". I'll stick to drinking this quite warm. The leaves began giving up their vegetal aroma, leaving room for buttercream.
3rd infusion (60s @ 175*) had a touch more bitterness, "there and not there" at first, but progressed into a distinct presence as the brew cooled. Not unpleasant, but I prefer without. The leaves continued to shift their aroma more towards a warm sweetness - beautiful.
Given the slight bitterness on this round, I backed off on the next...
4th infusion (60s @ 175*) - definitely too weak. Curiously, though, the bitterness remained. Not at first - at first I was back to that "cusp" - but as the brew cooled. This infusion felt drier as well. Tasting this, I realized some dryness was also present in the previous infusion, but it took its stronger presence here to bring it to my attention. As for the leaves, curiously again, a vegetal aroma returned. Overall, this round felt understeeped. Could this be a case of "too hot too fast"? Next time, I will try infusing longer, at lower temp, in hopes of extracting the rest of the leaves' sweetness before their bitterness.
Here's a picture of my setup-in-progress. I debated removing the pyrex cup, but in the interests of tea honesty , all is there.
Next up - Kabusecha!

This winter marks another achievement for Topman Design: the early release of selected lines from the exciting SS17 collection. Following high critical acclaim at London Collections Men in June of this year, the collection celebrates Britain's glorious seaside towns and this special pre-SS17 drop encapsulates the hype and energy surrounding last summer's show. Big, bold, printed and badged puffers feature alongside tongue in cheek nostalgic printed sweats.
Topman Design's AW16 wardrobe is also still going strong; a collection centred around a luxe grunge aesthetic exploring exaggerated proportions and unique, high quality fabrics.

OCZ Technology Group, a leading supplier of advanced memory modules and solid-state drives, on Wednesday announced its new SSD, which it calls the most cost-efficient flash drive based on single-level cell (SLC) memory. SLC flash not only provides extreme performance, but also excellent reliability.
"Though SLC has traditionally been more expensive than MLC flash there are both performance and lifespan advantages to SLC based solid state drives, it is for consumers that require the extended reliability of single level cell flash that we are now introducing the Agility EX series of SSDs. The Agility EX offers consumers the most cost effective SLC solid state storage solution on the market," said Eugene Chang, vice president of product management at the OCZ Technology Group.
OCZ Agility EX SSD offers 60GB capacity, up to 255MB/s read speed, up to 195MB/s write speed as well as seek time below 0.1ms. The drive consumes 2W in operating mode and 0.5W in standby mode. SLC NAND is times more reliable and faster than mainstream multi-level cell flash memory since it can handle more write cycles.
"When customers take all the benefits of SLC into consideration the total cost of ownership of these drives truly shines through," added Mr. Chang.
OCZ will initially release its new SSD with an MSRP of $399 and 3-year warranty.

Rated 5 out of 5�by Cinbad Fits and holds everything in place without bouncing! I LOVE the second option to tighten up the front cups to keep in place!!!! It's so hard to find a bra in my size that works!!! I'm running without having to worry about the bouncing or moving out. Of place! But did have to order a size up. Fit's great otherwise! May 22, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Smartbear Very supportive for horseback rider No sports bra that provides adequate support during riding can be described as "comfortable" but this one is less uncomfortable than almost all the rest. It wicks sweat better than most and is very supportive. The bra is adjustable booth at the back hooks and the in front to increase support. February 12, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by Aman32 If I could give it no stars I would. This product was awful. It's already been returned. No one under the age of 80 should wear this. January 22, 2016

Rated 1 out of 5�by londies Not very supportive I was hoping that this would be a great running bra as it had good potential but unfortunately it didnt work. I still have to wear two bras with this one, and there is still bounce. I like the concept but the material is not sturdy enough sadly. January 12, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by hockeyczar1 Runs small, but does have some adjustment Runs small, but does have some adjustment, Cannot say if it is bad or good just yet, have not wear it yet January 11, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5�by Thompkr12 Disappointed This item runs very small. I ordered a size bigger than normal and it was still way too small. Material seems fine though. It's going back. Will stick with known brands in the future. June 19, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by Boston Kel Great product for active ladies! I do cross fit type cardio, golf, weights etc this bra stands the test for all of the above. True to sizing, comfortable, not a mono bra! Worth the price! June 10, 2014
Rated 3 out of 5�by sassy Excellent control, bad back rub on upper elastic LOVE the cup control feature, the outer flap can be adjusted for firmness control. Fit is good, feels good on, however, when you move (work out), the back upper side of the elastic band rubs and irritates, leaving a mark. If the material were of something softer, I don't think it would be so bad. I will be using this sports bra, but not for serious movement, pity that. May 27, 2014

Golden milk

Golden milk
The four sides pasted together
Next week during the Annual Exhibition for the Advertising and Institutional, I'll be receiving a Gold Medal from the Society of illustrators for the Brick of Milk project.
The reception will be held on friday the 2nd at the Museum of illustration in New York, 128 East 63rd street.
This time I hope there will be no big snow storm like last year, so I could attend the ceremony.
Since the brick was way too big and heavy, more than 450 pounds, we had to make one of foam and print for the show.
I have a second piece awarded in the show, a poster I did for My Chemical Romance's concert in Paris in August 2011. Unfortunately I could get the piece back for the show.

The show will run until March 17th 2012.

How to Use CSQL (CUBRID SQL Interpreter)
What is CSQL?
Definition of CSQL
To execute a SQL query in CUBRID, there are three tools:
- CSQL Command Line SQL Interpreter
- CUBRID Manager, Graphical User Interface based database administration tool.
- CUBRID Query Browser, Graphical User Interface based database administration tool.
- Supports all terminal environments without X Windows
- Can be used to enter, edit, and execute all CUBRID commands
- Outputs the result to a file or screen
Connecting to a Database
The CSQL Interpreter allows to connect to both local and remote database hosts.
Connecting to a local database
The syntax used to connect to a local host in the command line using the CSQL Interpreter is shown below:
csql [options list] database_name
In other words, you can connect to the demodb database using CSQL by entering the followings in the shell prompt. (The demodb database is the default demo database installed automatically with CUBRID.)
> csql demodb
Connecting to a remote database
To connect to a remote database using the CSQL Interpreter, you need to enter the remote database information in the databases.txt configuration file located in the databases directory under the CUBRID installation directory (the environment variable which stores the location is $CUBRID_DATABASES).
vi $CUBRID_DATABASES/databases.txt # local db information demodb /home/cubrid/CUBRID/CUBRID_DATABASES/demodb DBHOST /home/cubrid/CUBRID/CUBRID_DATABASES/demodb # remote db information testdb /home/cubrid/CUBRID/CUBRID_DATABASES/testdb 192.168.1.1 /home/cubrid/CUBRID/CUBRID_DATABASES/testdb
Remember that the CUBRID version of a local database and that of a remote database must be the same.
The syntax used to connect to a remote host in the command line using the CSQL Interpreter is shown below, where testdb is the name of the remote database you indicated in the databases.txt file:
prompt csql -C testdb
Command-line options
The CSQL Interpreter allows to specify the following options:
|Executes the CSQL Interpreter in a standalone mode.
|Executes the CSQL Interpreter in a client/server mode.
|-i input_file
|Executes the CSQL Interpreter in a batch mode. The input_file parameter is the file name where SQL statements have been saved.
|-o output_file
|Saves a result of the statement execution in the specified output_file without displaying it on the screen.
|-u user_name
|Specifies the user that tries to access the database. The default value is public.
|-p password
|Specifies the password of the user who wants to access the database (if any).
|Executes multiple SQL statements saved consecutively in a file one by one. Multiple SQL statements must be separated by semicolons (;).
|-c "CSQL commands"
|Executes SQL statements directly from the prompt. To use this option, enclose the SQL statement to execute in double quotes.
|Displays the results of the SQL statement in a line format instead of a column. By default, the results will be displayed in a column format.
|Continues the query execution even when an error occurs.
|Sets the auto-commit mode of the CSQL Interpreter to OFF.
|Displays the results of the query performed by the CSQL Interpreter at once instead of page-by-page.
You can see the option list when you enter 'csql' in the shell prompt as shown below:
C:\Users\me> csql A database-name is missing. interactive SQL utility, version R3.1 usage: csql.exe [OPTION] database-name valid options: -S, --SA-mode standalone mode execution -C, --CS-mode client-server mode execution -u, --user=ARG alternate user name -p, --pasword=ARG password string, give "" for none -e, --error-continue don't exit on statement error -i, --input-file=ARG input-file-name -o, --output-file=ARG output-file-name -s, --single-line single line oriented execution -c, --command=ARG CSQL-commands -l, --line-output display each value in a line -r, --read-only read-only mode --no-auto-commit disable auto commit mode execution --no-pager do not use pager For addtional information, see http://www.cubrid.org
Options Usage Examples
Standalone mode -S
csql -S demodb
The above command means a database administrator wants to connect to the demodb database in a standalone mode. As a result no one except the current user will be allowed to connect to this database.
Line format -l
csql -S -l demodb
The -l option will tell CSQL to output the result of the SQL statement in a line format as shown below. If the -l option is omitted, the results will be displayed in a column format.
csql select * from code csql ;x === Result of SELECT Command in Line 1=== 00001s_name: 'X' f_name: 'Mixed' 00002s_name: 'W' f_name: 'Woman' 00003s_name: 'M' f_name: 'Man' 00004s_name: 'B' f_name: 'Bronze' 00005s_name: 'S' f_name: 'Silver' 00006s_name: 'G' f_name: 'Gold' 6 rows selected. Current transaction has been committed. 1 command(s) successfully processed. csql
Execute SQL statement in the shell -c
prompt csql -S -c "select * from code" demodb
The -c option will allow you to execute a SQL statement in the shell without connecting to the CSQL Interpreter.
Enter a SQL statement in double quotes when executing it directly in the shell.
csql -S -c "select * from code" demodb === Result of SELECT Command in Line 1 === s_name f_name ============================================ 'X' 'Mixed' 'W' 'Woman' 'M' 'Man' 'B' 'Bronze' 'S' 'Silver' 'G' 'Gold'
Force SQL statement execution -e
prompt csql -S -e -i infile demodb
If you use the -e option, the next SQL statement is executed even when a semantic error or a runtime error occurs during the current SQL statement execution.
vi infile select * from test_tb; create table test_tb (n int); insert into test_tb(m) values (10); insert into test_tb(n) values (5); select * from test_tb; prompt csql -e -i infile demodb In line 1, column 1, ERROR: Unknown class "test_tb". In line 3, column 23, ERROR: m is not defined. === Result of SELECT Command in Line 5 === n ============= 5
CSQL Session Commands
Command Syntax
In addition to SQL statements, CSQL Interpreter provides special commands allowing you to control the Interpreter. These commands are called session commands. All the session commands must start with a semicolon (;). Enter the ';help' command in the CSQL Interpreter to display a list of the session commands available. Note that only the uppercase letters of each session command are required to make the CSQL Interpreter recognize it and not case sensitive.
csql ;help === Help: Session Command Summary === All session commands should be prefixed by `;' and only blanks/tabs can precede the prefix. Capitalized characters represent the minimum abbreviation that you need to enter to execute the specified command. ;REad [ file-name] - read a file into command buffer. ;Write [ file-name] - (over)write command buffer into a file. ;APpend [ file-name] - append command buffer into a file. ;PRINT - print command buffer. ;SHELL - invoke shell. ;CD - change current working directory. ;EXit - exit program. ;CLear - clear command buffer. ;EDIT - invoke system editor with command buffer. ;List - display the content of command buffer. ;RUn - execute sql in command buffer. ;Xrun - execute sql in command buffer, and clear the command buffer. ;COmmit - commit the current transaction. ;ROllback - roll back the current transaction. ;AUtocommit [ON|OFF] - enable/disable auto commit mode. ;SHELL_Cmd [shell-cmd] - set default shell, editor, print and pager ;EDITOR_Cmd [editor-cmd] command to new one, or display the current ;PRINT_Cmd [print-cmd] one, respectively. ;PAger_cmd [pager-cmd] ;DATE - display the local time, date. ;DATAbase - display the name of database being accessed. ;SChema class-name - display schema information of a class. ;SYntax [sql-cmd-name] - display syntax of a command. ;TRigger [`*'|trigger-name] - display trigger definition. ;Get system_parameter - get the value of a system parameter. ;SEt system_parameter=value - set the value of a system parameter. ;Info command- display internal information. ;TIme [ON/OFF] - enable/disable to display the query execution time. ;HISTORYList - display list of the executed queries. ;HISTORYRead history_num- read entry on the history number into command buffer ;HElp - display this help message. csql

csql ;re infile The file has been read into the command buffer. csql ;li 1 select * from test_tb; 2 create table test_tb (n int); 3 insert into test_tb(m) values (10); 4 insert into test_tb(n) values (5); 5 select * from test_tb; csql
First, create a table with the schema creation command. Just type the new schema information of the new table, once completed, type ;x and hit enter to execute the SQL statement you have just written. This will execute the SQL statement in the buffer and also deletes the contents of the buffer.
Then, use ';sc table_name' to check the details of the newly created table.
csql create table student csql ( csql name varchar(10), csql gender char(3), csql phone varchar(20), csql addr string csql ) csql ;x Current transaction has been committed. 1 command(s) successfully processed. csql ;sc student === Help: Schema of a Class === Class Name student Attributes name CHARACTER VARYING(10) gender CHARACTER(3) phone CHARACTER VARYING(20) addr CHARACTER VARYING(1073741823) Current transaction has been committed. csql
Now insert the data. Type the SQL statement as shown below and execute it by using the ;r run command. Then search for the data.
csql insert into student (name, gender, phone, addr) values ('Gildong Hong', 'F', '111-2222', 'Seoul Gangnamgu Nonhyundong') csql ;ru 1 rows inserted. Current transaction has been committed. 1 command(s) successfully processed. csql ;cl csql select * from student csql ;ru === Result of SELECT Command in Line 1 === name gender phone addr =========================================================================== Gildong Hong' 'F ' '111-2222' 'Seoul Gangnamgu Nonhyundong' 1 rows selected. Current transaction has been committed. 1 command(s) successfully processed. csql
If the -noac (no auto-commit) option was used when starting CSQL, all the transactions till now, e.g. entering, deleting, or changing schema or data, must be reflected on the database using the ;co (commit) or ;ro (rollback) command before termination. If you exit without reflecting the transactions on the database, the system will ask whether you want to reflect it or not.
csql -no-auto-commit demodb csql insert into student(name,gender,phone,addr) values('Hani','F','333-9999', csql 'Seoul Youngdeungpogu Yeoidodong') csql ;ru 1 rows inserted. 1 command(s) successfully processed. csql ;co Current transaction has been committed. csql ;exit
Display Query Plan
Optimization level
Query plan shows which index is used in a query and what type of join is used. A user can see the query plan by changing optimization level before query execution.
csql set optimization level 257 csql ;x Current transaction has been committed. 1 command(s) successfully processed. csql select name from student where gender='F' csql ;x Query plan: Sequential scan(student student) br === Result of SELECT Command in Line 1 === name ====================== Gildong Hong' Hani' 2 rows selected.

Bad For Business
Today, North Carolinians go to the polls to vote in a primary election. You may never have voted in a primary before, or maybe never voted in any election, or maybe you don't claim any political party. But today all North Carolinians need to go to the polls – Democrat, Republican, and unaffiliated – and come to the polls and vote against Amendment One.
North Carolina's proposed Amendment One is bad for business.
It will interfere with employers' ability to recruit talent and their right to provide competitive benefits to their employees.
It also signals to employers, employees, and entrepreneurs that North Carolina is not welcoming to the diverse, creative workforce that we need to compete in the global economy.
We should not do anything at this time that diminishes any individual or any corporation's interest in locating or remaining in North Carolina.
But don't take my word for it. Bank of America exec Cathy Bessant says "Amendment One has the potential to have a disastrous effect on our ability to attract talent and keep talent" in North Carolina.
Duke Energy CEO Jim Rogers says twenty years from now we'll look back at this "amendment the same way we think about Jim Crow laws that were passed in this state" so many years ago.
Or executives at the AICPA who relocated five years ago, hired 500 employees, and now say they wouldn't have considered North Carolina had this had been the law.
This amendment will tarnish our state's reputation and affect everything from employee benefits to economic development.
So on behalf of myself and my family, and on behalf of the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of Commerce, I hope that you'll join me, today, in voting against Amendment One. Polls are open until 7:30.

BAYS BOD adopts new 6v6 Goal kick rule effective Fall 2013
Effective this Fall, bylaw 20.B.2 is revised to read:
Goal kicks shall be taken from within six yards of the goal line. The team not in possession shall withdraw to its defensive half of the field and may not enter its offensive half of the field until the ball is kicked and moved. Should the team in possession put the ball in play before the opposing players have taken position in their defensive half, play will continue.
Commentary (revised 3 Sept):
This rule is designed to encourage playing out of the back where the team in possession can put the ball in play without having all the players lining the penalty area in the case of the younger and/or lower leg strength players. All other rules are intact (the ball must exit the area before it can be played, team in possession may be anywhere on the field etc). The goal kick is still a substitution opportunity for either team so the referee should check for the presence of substitutes and allow the substitution to occur if either team wishes. The referee should make sure the non-possession team is beyond half prior to allowing the ball to be put in play after the substitution. If no substitution is requested, the referee should encourage the opposing players to retreat and if requested by the team in possession ensure the non-possession team is in the defensive half before whistling for the restart.
Clarification of the phrase ball is played. The restriction of being behind half is removed when the player taking the goal kick kicks the ball (played) and is not when the ball exit the penalty area (ball in play). Should the ball not exit the penalty area, the referee will whistle for the goal kick to be retaken and the team not in possession would again need to retreat to their half of the field.
The player taking the goal kick or team mate may request the referee enforce the rule in which case the referee would revert to a ceremonial kick where the referee ensures the non-possession team is in their own half prior to whistling for the kick to proceed. If no request is made and the team in possession kicks the ball, play is resumed. THe only time the kick would be re-taken is when the balls fails to exit the penalty area or other situation that would normally result in the goal kick being re-taken..
We anticipate that early in the season, referees will need to make more frequent reminders and should include a reminder of the new rule during the check in of the teams.

Editorial: Pettalia's work ethic represents 106th well
It's nice to know when you send someone to represent you, that's exactly what they are doing.
So it was with State Rep. Peter Pettalia, R-Presque Isle, who for two years now has not missed a vote on the House floor. The perfect voting record is impressive.
"The people of Northeast Michigan elected me to represent them and I take that responsibility seriously," Pettalia said.
Putting things into perspective, last year the House had 914 roll call votes.
While more cynical readers might stop and think "what's the big deal, that is what he is supposed to do," think about this – how many people at your place of employment go through an entire year with perfect attendance?
And again, this wasn't the first time Pettalia accomplished this feat, he did it as well his first year in Lansing, in 2011.
Finally, in addition to the two years of not missing a vote, Pettalia also did not miss any scheduled session on the House floor in 2012, nor did he miss any scheduled committee hearings.
Of 110 House members, 48 had perfect voting records.
In the Senate, Sen. John Moolenaar, R-Midland, missed three of 1,912 votes. Only two senators had a perfect voting record, five missed one vote, and two missed two votes. Moolenaar was one of three senators missing three votes.

The month of June at Capella Ixtapa is all about art and culture! Every weekend during this month at Capella Ixtapa Art & Culture Festival we are hosting different events featuring local artists and experts. On Fridaya you can join us for a cocktail and canapés, meet and talk with participating artists and see their work firsthand. Then, come back Saturdays for painting and jewelry making classes, and on Sundays come and enjoy the art exhibition!
I am very excited to meet all of the artists, see their inspiring work and get to learn from their vision, ideas, love for art, culture and our lovely Ixtapa Zihuatanejo. I was intrigued by the work of local organic jeweler, Mónica Gutiérrez, and decided to join her jewelry making class. I was curious to see how I can turn my shells and other souvenirs that I collect from my visits to the beaches, into something even more beautiful and wearable. After the class Mónica was very kind to sit and chat with me about her work and inspiration.
Mónica, thank you so much for participating in Capella Ixtapa's Art & Culture Festival, I love your work, and I enjoyed the jewelry making class a lot! Could you please tell our readers about yourself and about your work?
Thank you so much! It is my pleasure to be part of the festival, it is such an honor to share my knowledge with you and your guests and visitors. I started giving jewelry classes about 13 years ago, and very soon after that I got drawn into making organic jewelry. I was captivated by its originality and complexity, mainly for the immense possibilities, which nature gives us, to immortalize the form and texture of any element, be it a leaf, bone, seeds, wood, and so on. From my beginnings in creating jewelry and until today I have divided my time between creating the jewelry and giving workshops. The majority of my time is dedicated to making jewelry, but I also love giving workshops and teaching my techniques to others.
Which materials are best for creating organic jewelry, and where do you get them? What is your inspiration when creating jewelry?
I get inspired by everything nature gives us! I take the elements that I find interesting and prepare them for melting, and then pour on silver. Once the elements are prepared for melting I see how to put them together. It all depends on what kind of elements they are, stones, crystals, glass, skin, seeds, textiles, and others.
What do you like best in creating organic jewelry?
Everything! From the selection of elements, preparing them for the working process, creating the piece, and then finally to feel the reaction of people when they see it, and see it on people wearing it… I love everything about it!
What advice would you give to anyone that is interested in making their own organic jewelry?
They should feel their work and have a lot of patience.
You live in Zihuatanejo, can you share with me and our readers what do you like best about our town, and perhaps share your favorite place?
I love our vast pristine beaches, the rich and beautiful nature. My favorite place in the area is Troncones.
I loved your organic jewelry making class at Capella Ixtapa's Art & Culture Festival. Are you organizing more classes at your workshop? Where can our guests and visitors of Ixtapa Zihuatanejo see and purchase your work?
Yes, I am organizing the classes of the basics of the jewelry making at my studio in Zihuatanejo, and my work is for sale at Galart gallery at Playa de La Ropa and at the Café and Gallery Los Remedios in Zihuatanejo.
Thank you so much Mónica! I look forward to seeing your new collection!
Thank you, it is my pleasure!
For more information about Mónica Gutiérrez please email her here, and for other activities at Capella Ixtapa please visit our Facebook Page / Capella Ixtapa, where you can follow our current events and activities.

Aircell Releases ATG 2000
Gogo subsidiary Aircell unveiled a new equipment package providing Internet and voice service for business jets Monday, ATG 2000.
The new package provides Internet and voice services for light jets and turboprops with fewer users at "affordable" prices, the company said. Travel Management Company (TMC) has been announced as the launch customer for ATG 200, and will be adding the system to its entire light jet charter fleet--nearly 70 aircraft in total.
"Among other segments, we expect it to be a popular option for light jets and turboprops, as well as for customers replacing MagnaStar systems prior to the Airfone shutdown on Dec. 31 this year," said John Wade, executive vice president of Aircell.
Aircell designed ATG 2000 specifically for the business aviation market, as the system can connect up to three personal devices and allows up to two simultaneous voice calls. The $57,000 system does not support streaming video and audio services, which Aircell says will help manage monthly service costs by naturally curbing the amount of data consumption.

There are basically three ways to deal with homophobes: demonize them as hateful evil bigots, psychoanalyze them as mentally disordered crackpots (thus the term, homophobe, meaning a psychologically disordered fear of gay people), and patronize them as pitifully ignorant inferiors.
The latter is the way letter writer Patty Christian seemed to deal with letter writer Todd Petit for his claim that homosexuality is sin in her letter last Wednesday, "Unfamiliarity is the first step toward intolerance."
Christian explained that she understands how hard it is for poor, ignorant Petit and his ilk to accept gays because they haven't been around them enough to see how natural their attraction is. Can I use her reasoning and suggest that she hasn't been around enough people of Petit's persuasion to understand that many of them actually know homosexuals, work with them, live next door to them and genuinely like them?
Has she not been around enough people like Petit to understand that people can not just tolerate, but respect and even like people with whom they genuinely disagree? Don't we see enough of these character attacks from the Rush Limbaughs and the Bill Mahers?
If Christian doesn't like Petit's point of view, she should just say so. She should not patronize him as a naïve, ignorant yokel who just needs to be better educated.
In fact, if she met him, I bet she'd find him very likable and knowledgeable, despite the differing convictions.

Skip to comments.Indiana Supreme Court upholds broadest US school voucher program, clears way for expansion
Posted on 03/26/2013 8:06:57 AM PDT by TurboZamboni
INDIANAPOLIS The Indiana Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld the law creating the nations broadest school voucher program, clearing the way for a possible expansion.
In a 5-0 vote, the justices rejected claims that the law primarily benefited religious institutions that run private schools and accepted arguments that it gave families choice and allowed parents to determine where the money went.
The Indiana case has received national attention because the program has wide eligibility. Middle-class families are allowed to participate in Indiana, while in most states, such programs are limited to low-income families or those in failing schools.
(Excerpt) Read more at washingtonpost.com ...
They don't want to give parents a choice because the parents will "self-select" into segregated
"give a damn about my kids"
"don't give a damn about my kids"
I hope one of the arguments was the current public shool monopoly is failing to actually educate our children
Those already sending their kids to private schools (even though they would seemingly benefit a lot financially) might be opposed for the following reasons:
1 - Government vouchers will drive up the costs of a private education thus eliminating the most positive benefit (simple supply and demand). Which is exactly what has driven the cost of college through the roof in the last decade or two as government loans and grants have flooded US colleges.
2 - Private schools would be flooded with the rude, ill-behaved, liberally indoctrinated, feral children that private school parents were so desperate to keep their children away from to being with.
Good news; I hope it spreads.
The government probably wouldn't allow this,
but the solution to the unruly kids ruining a school is simple -
kick 'em out.
If the parents want their kids to be in a school where they have been warned about their behavior, the parents will be sure the kid shapes up.
Again, though, the government wouldn't allow this. Liberalism is all about there being no consequences for behavior.
Public schools are redistribution of wealth, and they are the ultimate propaganda machines. I can think of no thing that is so evil.
The real question is why government is involved in education in the first place. Even conservatives aren't asking that question.
It runs that risk. I'd like to know if it is indexed for inflation, at or below the cost of the average private school cost, and if there is any incentive on the part of the parent to "save" money.
Also, what happens to home schoolers?
I favor tuition tax credits.
Nobody makes us shop at a limited selection of goobermint-run grocery stores and we eat EVERY day, ALL year.
Catholic schools teach that Catholicism is the source of truth.
Christian schools teach that Christianity is the source of truth.
Jewish schools teach that Judaism is the source of truth.
Muslim schools teach that Islam is the source of truth.
And Government Schools teach that Government is the source of truth.
The best answer to your concerns is there is a private school for those also?
If not make one!!
Of course.... that may no longer apply when they are receiving money from the government in the form of a voucher! I can easily see a situation similar to what occurring with student loans and colleges happening to private schools. After letting all the private schools get used to all the extra income a flood of parents with vouchers will supply... the government will simple come in later with demand X. With the threat that if demand X isn't complied with vouchers will no longer be allowed to be used at their school.
This will then be used to impose every left leaning crack job idea imaginable onto the private schools.
Thus, if a private school education costs $5,000 a year because that is all parents are willing to pay for it... and the government come in with vouchers, grants, loans or whatever and pays for $4,000 of that cost...
what do you think the cost will be in the future? I'll tell you! it will then cost $9,000 for that same education!
They'll be no joy in unionville tonite!
When Indianapolis Public Schools had a district "Voucher" program a few years back, the overwhelming majority of parents sent their kids to THE CLOSEST SCHOOL. Simplicity for the PARENTS was the first family priority.
The teachers union, and the Bus Drivers Union threw fits until the program was canceled with the arrival of the new (now almost-gone) superintendent.
A few sent kids to specialty schools, but not very many.
So true; but, the public education machine isn't there for educating your children, it is there to benefit the teacher's unions. So, from their pov, it is working perfectly well.
If you are a parent who actually cares about your child's education, then this is very good news indeed. Too bad it is not catching on in the rest of the country.
This is the big one. The voucher plan could thus kill the private school system.
I agree with both reasons. As a parent whose child starts private Christian school this fall, I want parents to have to sacrifice to send their kids to private school. That way, the only kids that will be there are the ones whose parents really want them to be. We make above median income, but not greatly above. The school he will be attending is less than some other private schools in the area, but we are giving up a lot to send him there. It's a very nice car payment, maybe two car payments. Or a bigger house. But, I will gladly give those up to provide him a better academic opportunity with a Christian world-view, surrounded by kids whose parents feel the same way and are very involved.
The vouchers will be for a fixed amount of money. Schools can charge more than the voucher, with the parents needing to kick in the difference. So high-priced private schools will not get any "inner city" voucher kids, but private schools with more modest tuition levels will be flooded with ferals.
God save the children.
Gov. Robert Bentley Signs Alabama Accountability Act
The bill allows families with children zoned to failing schools to receive tax credits to help pay for attendance at private schools or other public schools. It authorizes donation-funded scholarships for students zoned to failing schools whose families meet income requirements. It allows local school systems to seek waivers from some state policies.
"The real question is why government is involved in education in the first place. Even conservatives arent asking that question."
It is a shame, the presuppositions we accept any more. Like with Medi-Cal or Medi-Caid or Social Security, we are interested in getting rid of fraud and illegal alien benefits and waste, but, few talk about chucking the entire program.
I could see a legitimate argument for the state needing literate citizens who understand their citizenship rights and responsibilities.
Ideally I'd like to see a public library in any county of over so many people, and at that library "free" (tax payer funded) literacy, basic math, and civics courses. Not forced, but available at various times and days for all citizens of any age.
The argument for this would be civil and common defense, as illiterate people who can't add are not capable of modern warfare, not much. Also, citizenship requires a basic knowledge of the laws of the land.
That's how it would be if I were King. The current model of public schools gone, no compulsory education. But no.
Good. Privatize everything from the DOE down to one room schoolhouses.
In some states it is actually written into their Constitution....
This is to me in the business of change yet another crack in the dam that will soon fall in the Monopoly hiding as Public Education (really Indoctrination!)
My neighbors send their boy to this school in Indianapolis. Many signs in the neighborhood promoting the school. I am not sure if it is public or public supported.
We have a program in our kids' private Christian school, grades 7-12, where we raise funds for scholarships for underprivileged kids. Sure, those middle school kids come in sassy and underperform at first, but by their senior year they are transformed. They have real hope and real skills, and easily manage to get scholarships into good, primarily Christian, schools.
As for the kids who are hard cases and don't fall in line, they get kicked out. It happens enough so that everyone knows it's a real possibility. But they are a small minority of the scholarship kids.
the second private schools accept those dollars the leftists will force them to use the same currculum as publik skoolz
Do you feel the same way about Public Libraries?
My daughter-in-law teaches in a private school, she said that they were not too thrilled with the voucher program. It depended on if the state then would have a say in how you ran your school. She teaches in a catholic school.
I think tuition tax credits could be the answer.
No "state money" involved. (keeping your own money)
Of course, leftists believe your money all belongs to The State and you're just fortunate they let you keep some.
Look for teachers' unions and MSM to go totally apeshit in Indiana 5...4...3...2...1...
This may be good, but
Unfortunately Indiana has proven recently that it does not believe in the most basic protections in the constitution.
It depends on the character of the school. A school with a strong religious mission, as opposed to one with only the title of Christian will resist the temptation to let the money be the determining factor. But even a school with a more mercenary view will hestitate to offend its existing customers, who can, after all, chose to go elsewhere.
The reason why federal aide was allowed the colleges but not the schools was the specious distinction between a school and a college. Schools are for indoctrination, but colleges, not. But the GIs who went to college on the GI Bill often remarked how childish were the 21 years olds they found themselves in school with. High schools are for indoctrination only if they become no more than higher elementary schools, holding pens to keep boy and girls from growing up.
"I hope one of the arguments was the current public shool monopoly is failing to actually educate our children"
I think that this is what most people think of when the hear about vouchers.
Another argument that is rarely made and that will probably be a driving force towards moving states to a voucher system is cost.
If it costs a state an average of 10K per year to educate a student, a 5K voucher will net the state a 5K surplus.
If enough students leave the public system, there will be fewer teachers and administrators, fewer facilities, fewer buses, etc., which will lead to even more savings.
As states continue to struggle to meet their budget needs, the cost factor may end up being more important than the quality of education, which is a major talking point for many states but doesn't seem to be a concern otherwise.
It's already being implemented! It's called Common Core and its descripton is filled with focus tested phrases that make it sound wonderful, but it's really set up to totally federalize education down to the lesson plan. It leaves room for no more than 15% input from the teacher.
All but 5 states have adopted it or are considering it through state legislatures where the elected officers know next to nothing about it. There are about 17 or 18 states that adopted it and are now trying to get rid of it.
It will even be enforced on charter schools and home schoolers. Bill Ayers (domestic terrorist and current education specialist) is involved in its design so you can readily figure what its purpose is...
Parents pay for their own brood. No tax credits (those w/out kids should not be paying for the brood mares to begin), reduce the overall taxes and let the parents hire/fire/elect/whatever for their own.
Education should be primarily dealt with at the local level, with only essential oversight by the states such as requiring the essential history, math, sicence and English courses.
William Flax
So true.
We used to joke that college was just H.S. with ash trays.
(then they banned smoking)

In short: Like the change of courseIn full: Definitely prefer the change of course. CONAC have worked hard to iron out the problems of previous years, they even managed to arrange good weather this year :) Date of review: November 30, 2009
In short: Good first time race - yet still challenging for regular runnersIn full: I never thought I would say this I did miss the steep gravel hill - it was always the talking point among runners after the race - please go back to the old routeDate of review: November 30, 2009
In short: Good organisation, marshalls, route and medals. Weather changed at the right time to make it dry and sunny. Date of review: November 30, 2009
In short: a good half, good support, a little tough at timesDate of review: November 30, 2009
In short: had a great time.Date of review: November 30, 2009
In short: great day outIn full: I really enjoyed it. The organisation/marshalling seemed flawless though having done it before I knew what to expect. The fact the race started on time must have meant they've sorted out most of the traffic trouble of previous years so well done CONAC. The weather was ideal too. It seems like it is mainly uphill, probably because it is what with the new change but I still think it is a quick course.Seeing Ronnie O'Sullivan at the end was a highlight!Date of review: November 29, 2009
In short: Fast and Virtually Flat Two Lap Half MarathonIn full: :-)I do like this two lap course, and plenty of chances for spectators to see us in-between a coffee and a burger.Nice course, but I do think the new course is actually slower than the old one. They have traded 400m of sharp uphill for 2.5 miles of slow shallower gradient.Still, expertly organised. A sad inditement of our times that the stewards had to be 'SIA Accredited' (bouncers). Still, with no ipods and perfect weather this was an excellent day. Even better the winner was disqualified for number swapping. Oh how I chortled !See you next year.:-) Date of review: November 29, 2009
In short: First ever road race - first ever half marathon - great - could become a bit of a habit!Date of review: November 29, 2009
In short: My first Half ...great day ... highly recommend !!!Date of review: November 29, 2009
In short: Great race the slight change in route this year was an improvement would just like to remove the zig zag in the showground at half wayDate of review: November 29, 2009

Of course he's a former Eagle, but Dmitri Patterson started nine games, and had 62 tackles and 4 picks, as the "targeted" corner in Philly. Replaces Eric Wright adequately, it would seem.
IMO, this team needs linebackers more than anything, and they did sign two UDFA's today there. Eric Gordon had a good last 2 yrs at Michigan State....know nothing much at all about Archie Donald from Toledo. Need experienced NFL LB's though.

If you are planning to move, take a trip or just bring your cat to the animal hospital, you should consider getting your feline friend ready for the experience ahead of time. If you don't already have one, purchase a cat carrier. VCA Animal Hospitals reports that some cats may prefer one that offers more visibility, while others may feel safer in a carrier in which they can't see much of their surroundings.
Since carriers are typically only used when a cat is taken to the vet, the animal may grow apprehensive or anxious at the sight of a carrier. The ASPCA recommends slowly working with the feline to get them used to the carrier. The first step is to get the cat used to the carrier's presence. This can be as simple as placing it in a room where your pet spends a lot of time. Once he is used to the carrier, you can try laying out a few treats outside the opening of the crate and putting a few more inside to encourage him to step in.
According to VCA, putting familiar objects, such as a favorite toy or something the cat naps on can help ease their fear of the carrier. This will help make it smell more familiar, as can synthetic pheromones. Whether you are bringing a sick cat to the vet or moving to a new home, ensuring your pet is comfortable along the way will make the trip easier on them.

Perfect fine motor skill manipulative!
By Kid Librarian
from Salem, Oregon
About Me Educator
Comments about Learning Resources Super Sorting Pie:
A surprise hit with preschoolers, who will sit for the longest time sorting from one side to the other. The tongs are the draw (would recommend getting a metal set, the plastic ones aren't as sturdy), and the lovely tactile quality of the fruit. Definitely choking hazard, so wouldn't use with the youngest set without supervision. I love that you can sort by color, by type of fruit, or by number. Our set has lasted eight months of daily continuous play in an institutional setting with only one broken tong.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great learning toy
By Thankful4grace
from Ohio
About Me Educator, Parent
I purchased this product to use with my children. As a teacher, I love that this toy is fun, but very educational. My older daughter can use the sorting pie with the sorting cards, like intended. My younger daughters love all the little pieces of fruit too and can sort them into colored sorting bowls. We keep this toy stored in the box on a shelf so we do not have to worry about keeping track of all the fruit.

Great high quality toy
By Yanochka
from Cleveland, oH
About Me Parent Of Multiples (Twins etc)
My twin boys enjoy sorting the fruits. The tweezers seem a little too big for their hands, but I think it makes it a little more challenging for them and I like it. One of my boys is falling behind with his fine motor skills, his fingers are very weak. I purchased this toy in hope to strengthen his fingers and grip. He gets frustrated sometimes because his hands are so tiny and he has a very hard time picking up bananas and green beens, but I still keep incuriging him to try again. I don't keep this toy just laying around and I take it out to play 2-3 times a week in hope that they will not get bored with it too fast. We had this toy for may be 3 weeks or so and I already see that my boys got much better at picking up fruit and being able to hold it for a longer time. Very good toy to improve fine motor skills and strengthen the fingers.

Love this toy!
By Fairmaiden
from Canada
I first saw this toy at a kids' group I take my 2 year old to. There were 4 or 5 kids all trying to play with it at once - they all loved it! So I decided to purchase this toy for my daughter. My two daughters and I enjoy playing with the pie together, sorting it in all sorts of ways. I like to use it with my 6 year old and get her to create patterns with the colours and types of fruit.

Fantastic, but I need replacement parts
By DS
from Traverse City, MI
About Me First Time Parent
I love this sorting pie! The size, quality and detail of the fruit pieces are fantastic. This "game" is a big hit with both my 3 year old daughter and her 6 year old cousin. Unfortunately, a care-giver thought it would it be a good idea to let them play with the fruit in a water table but didn't dry the pieces before returning them to the pie pan. Consequently, the sorting cards stored in the bottom of the pan were ruined. Is there any way I can get replacement cards?
Merchant response: Hello- Please contact customer service at email@example.com and they can send you replacement cards. Thank you!
Brilliant for early numeracy skills
By Science Sparks
from UK
The quality of this is fantastic and the learning potential huge.The set comes with the pie itself, a removable inner part with 5 compartments, a lid, two tweezers, 60 fruits in 5 colours and 3 reversible inserts. The idea is that you sort the fruits by number, colour or type using the tweezers which are great for improving fine motor control and finger strength.
Great Educational Toy
By SPED Teacher
from Georgia
About Me Special education teacher
This is a great way for kids to learn sorting as well as counting. The tweezers offer a great way for kids to practice their fine motor skills. I love that it comes with a variety of cards for kids who are lower and higher.
Math Learning Made Fun!!
By BabyGearToday.com
from Sacramento, CA
About Me Education Oriented, Parent Of Two Or More Children, Stay At Home Parent
Math, to me, sometimes can be a bit boring, and there is only so long that you can keep counting on your fingers until you run out, even when you use the entire families hands!! The Super Sorting Pie can become so many different learning tools for us- I just love it!My favorite way to use it as a teacher is using it as a math manipulative. My daughter can use the pieces of fruit to add and subtract- it makes the numbers even more real when she sees me adding 2 bananas and 3 grapes. She just "gets it" a whole lot easier!! For my 3 year old, she uses it more as a pretend play item- making me fruit pies and trying to sell them to me, which I think is adorable, but she also is learning patterns, sorting, and number sense as well. Using the fruit pieces she can do very simple math – which I think is huge for a 3 year old!! The activity cards allow them to play several different engaging and educational games. This is one toy in our home that definitely is getting used daily, for play and for school
Great for developing fine motor skills
By JKing
from Southwest Missouri
About Me Education Oriented, Special needs parent
My son has Asperger's, and this toy is great for helping to develop his lacking fine motor skills. The tweezers are the perfect size and strength for small hands and the pieces are the appropriate size for picking up. It is great for introducing basic math and even helps to introduce simple fractions to younger children and is great with practicing more complex fractions with older children. This is also very sturdy, brightly colored, and unlike most of its sort (pun intended). Great product from a great company.Learning Resources provided a free product sample to facilitate this review.

JC Lambert's storied career at Southern Illinois University is slowly coming to and end.
The Harrisburg High School graduate will walk away from the Salukis as the school's all-time record holder in the hammer throw, as well as, holding the mark in the Missouri Valley Conference.
This past year's MVC champion holds seven Valley titles and four All-American Awards.
But before he bags up his hammer throw for his collegiate career, he'll continue to reach for new heights when he travels to Austin, Texas Thursday to compete in the NCAA West Region Preliminary Round Championships.
Lambert is ranked sixth in the nation in the hammer throw and knows that while his time at SIU is winding down, the former Bulldog still has things he would like to accomplish.
He recently sat in with The Daily Register for a Q&A about what's left to accomplish and what's on his to-do list.
Question: How would you define your career at SIU?
JC Lambert: That's a good question. I would say I've gone beyond my expectations when I arrived here, as a walk-on freshman, I thought I might be lucky enough to win a conference title by the time I'm a senior. I was already making quite a bit of noise my freshman year with the hammer throw, shot put and discus and I kept improving. I surprised myself.
Q: Do you feel like there is anything that you need to accomplish that you haven't already?
JCL: The big thing, and its tough to say, but I'd love to win an NCAA title. That's one thing that I've wanted to do since I got here and since I started pushing myself to higher expectations. I got close my senior year and I have a chance to win this year.
I believe everything is setting up for me to have a big throw at the NCAAs. It's just going to come down to a few more weeks of preparation. If I can get top three in the hammer, I would be very, very happy. Winning is my ultimate goal, but I'm also chasing a mark — 70 meters which is roughly 230 feet. It's 10 feet off my personal best and five feet off some of my fouls. It's very possible.
Q: Would the possibility of qualifying for the Olympics be something that would interest you?
JCL: Yeah, I've definitely thought about it. I couldn't compete in the Olympic Trials last year because I had Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, but I want to keep training. The biggest thing for me would by my finical situation. How much can I work? How much can I save?
Page 2 of 2 - That would be the biggest thing. If my progressions stay high and I'm able to throw farther each year, in another three years when the Olympic Trails rolls around there's a definite possibility I can make the team.
It's really hard for a person in the United States to make the team because in order to make the team you have to hit an Olympic A-Standard, which is 79 meters and only a few people have done that. It's a hard mark to hit, but if I hit that and then I make the finals, I'm on the team. We'll have to see what happens in the next three years.
Q: What's something that you bring with you from Harrisburg to SIU.
JCL: Good team spirit. I know a lot of people can associate track and field as an individual sport, but there are a lot of things you can do to help your "team" score points.
In the past 12-15 years, I've been the second highest point scorer on the team for the conference with 120 points here at SIU. Harrisburg is my hometown and where I've grown up, so of course I like to make my family and friends proud.

CALL FOR PAPERS Pragmatics & Cognition announces a special issue on THE BODY IN DESCRIPTION OF EMOTION: CROSS-LINGUISTIC STUDIES Guest Editors N.J. Enfield and Anna Wierzbicka 'Emotions' combine feelings, thoughts and bodily events/processes in complex ways. The role of the body in emotion has commonly been a subject of clinical research, but it has less often come into discussion of the semantics and pragmatics of how languages encode ideas about emotion. Apart from well known work on 'metaphor', concentrating on English, there is little data available on how the body enters into the way that languages codify ideas about emotions. This includes meaning extensions (by metaphor or metonymy) of the basic vocabulary of emotion, idiomatic phrases and common discourse about emotional experience, folk theory and description of exactly what goes on in the body when emotions occur. The main question which we would expect the submissions to address is: How do speakers of the world's languages refer to the body in talking about emotions? English-language descriptions of emotion are also 'folk descriptions', not culture-free, and this makes data from all languages equally valid and valuable in informing our understanding of the complex relationships between thoughts, feelings, and bodily processes inherent in ideas of 'emotions'. It is then necessary to understand, compare and contrast as wide a range as possible of the various 'folk descriptions' of emotions which the rest of the world's languages allow us access to. In particular, data on how speakers refer to the body in their talk about emotions will be a valuable addition to the limited corpus of broad cross-linguistic data on the linguistics of emotion. One purpose of this special issue is to contribute to current research by providing empirically sound descriptions from typologically diverse and geographically widespread languages, with at least some representation of languages of Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia, Europe, and Oceania. Deadline for submission: September 1, 2000 Editorial decisions: December 1, 2000 Revised papers due: February 1, 2001 Expected publication: October 2001 Papers should be submitted according to the guidelines of the journal (see: http://www.benjamins.nl/jbp/journals/P&c_info.html ). All submissions will be peer reviewed.
