Abstract: The use of eye movements to interact with computers offers opportunities for people with impaired motor ability to overcome the difficulties they often face using hand-held input devices. Computer games have become a major form of entertainment, and also provide opportunities for social interaction in multi-player environments. Games are also being used increasingly in education to motivate and engage young people. It is important that young people with motor impairments are able to benefit from, and enjoy, them. This thesis describes a program of research conducted over a 20-year period starting in the early 1990's that has investigated interaction techniques based on gaze position intended for use by people with motor impairments. The work investigates how to make standard software applications accessible by gaze, so that no particular modification to the application is needed. The work divides into 3 phases. In the first phase, ways of using gaze to interact with the graphical user interfaces of office applications were investigated, designed around the limitations of gaze interaction. Of these, overcoming the inherent inaccuracies of pointing by gaze at on-screen targets was particularly important. In the second phase, the focus shifted from office applications towards immersive games and on-line virtual worlds. Different means of using gaze position and patterns of eye movements, or gaze gestures, to issue commands were studied. Most of the testing and evaluation studies in this, like the first, used participants without motor-impairments. The third phase of the work then studied the applicability of the research findings thus far to groups of people with motor impairments, and in particular,the means of adapting the interaction techniques to individual abilities. In summary, the research has shown that collections of specialised gaze-based interaction techniques can be built as an effective means of completing the tasks in specific types of games and how these can be adapted to the differing abilities of individuals with motor impairments.

The government has launched several initiatives to promote the development of sustainable products as the concept has a potential to stimulate the national economy and address the sustainability issues. Although the progress has been reflected through the launch of numerous products in the market, most of the products available were only claimed to be sustainable or environmentally friendly. Education is a prerequisite to achieve the integration of sustainable design as it equips stakeholders with knowledge and skills required to be the future decision makers. In other words, it enables designers to create products that contribute to sustainable development. However, the researcher found a lack of sustainable design learning in Thai industrial/product design courses. This situation has motivated the researcher to carry out this PhD research with an aim to support the implementation of education for sustainable development (ESD) into Thai higher education institutions (HEIs). The literature review emphasised the need to tailor the theoretical framework for Thai lecturers due to the lack of ESD training and appropriate materials. It also indicated the lack of publications related to the Thai context and the requirements to identify barriers and needs of the target users. The shortfall was addressed through a series of interviews; experts from three different disciplines (government, business and education sectors) were invited to participate in the interview sessions and reveal the status of sustainable design and ESD in Thailand. The findings were then used to construct the ESD framework that is specific to Thai industrial/product design courses. The SustainAble web-tool was developed to make it more effective in enabling the framework to comply with the needs of Thai design lecturers. Usability testing was employed to test the framework that was presented through the web-tool. The framework evaluation demonstrated the success of the framework development and underlined the need for the web-tool. The tool can fulfill the framework and allow it to be practically applied in the context of Thai design education. Description: A Doctoral Thesis.

Chinese Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), have made significant contributions to society and the national economy, their influence determines the success of this economic transition. On the other hand, design-oriented New Product Development (NPD) strategies are generally recognised as beneficial for company survival, but are mostly applied in large companies. Evidence of testing design-oriented NPD strategy in Chinese SMEs is sparse. This research therefore, attempts to introduce design-oriented NPD strategy to Chinese SMEs, and investigates how design-oriented NPD strategy performs in Chinese SMEs. This research adopts a qualitative approach with three stages: the first utilises a scoping study to understand the feasibility of this research, and synthesise knowledge from the literature to construct a customised NPD process model with design-oriented aspects; the second stage focuses on using an experimental method to conduct a parallel implementation: two NPD projects follow different NPD approaches, the conventional NPD process of SMEs and the introduced design-oriented NPD process; the third stage carried out mainly by observation, set out to investigate the changes brought about by the NPD process. Empirical data from three NPD projects is collected and analysed. Evidence from the parallel NPD projects demonstrates that the introduced design-oriented NPD strategy gains internal confidence but is costly when compare with the conventional approach (funds and time). Although the new product from the design-oriented team of the experiment performed less well from a sales perspective, a continuous observation on their follow-up NPD project, the investigation of the changes, discloses that the NPD behaviour of the investigated company is changed, all participants reach consensus regarding the merits of the design-oriented NPD. It concludes that the design-oriented NPD strategy in Chinese SMEs are implementable and beneficial. This research is a single case study, and a qualitative investigation of implementation of the design-oriented NPD strategy in one selected Chinese SME. It requires a wider adoption of the design-oriented NPD strategy in companies across different industries, and to investigate a larger sample of NPD projects, to gather quantitative confirmation.

Abstract: The medical device industry requires multi-disciplinary collaboration between researchers and physicians (Freudenthal et al. 2011). In responding to the challenges associated with medical device development, Ogrodnick (2013) proposed a collaborative model in which design teams have a/synchronous access to a repository of information regarding the progress of the development of a medical device. This research investigates the nature of interactions between manufacturers and physicians throughout the process of medical device development to facilitate more effective practice. A literature review explored the history of medical devices; design and development processes; overall approaches to design and case studies involving healthcare practitioners coupled with collaborative processes. From this detailed review, three gaps in knowledge were identified: industrial design practice in medical device development is not well described; the models and frameworks of user involvement were unverified; user involvement was based on formal agency requirements. Empirical studies were undertaken to identify the state of the art in medical device development and opinions of physician users. These studies were conducted to identify the practices, opinions and influences for collaborative medical device design. The industry study consisted of a multiple case study research design and was used to elicit the practices of 18 major medical device manufacturers. Industry participants were selected on the basis of meeting specific criteria in location, size, type of device manufactured and use of industrial design. Interviews with practicing physicians were conducted to gain insights. The responses from the participants were analyzed using NVivo software, card sorting and data visualization to identify routes to more effective engagement in collaboration during medical device design. The findings indicated that there were seven issues ideas priorities for collaborative practice. These included: user integration throughout the development process; the negotiation/ownership of intellectual property; the knowledge of impact to device design; consistent communication between device developers and physician users; timeliness and efficiencies of interactions; the identification/connection of partners; and meeting legal requirements of healthcare laws. These issues were translated into design requirements and six potential tools for cMDD. Using a Pugh matrix, each concept was evaluated against the developed requirements. As a result, the comprehensive computer application concept, which addressed the maximum number of issues, was selected and further developed for the purposes of validation. The navigation and graphic design was completed and a video, which justified the purpose and explained the software, was produced. To evaluate the concept, seven reviewers consisting of both industry representatives and physicians, whom had no previous knowledge of the research project, evaluated the video with positive responses, further potential uses for the software and suggested improvements. This research concludes that within the current regulated process of development there was flexibility in the application of design control during the conceptual phase and that the majority of developers followed a user driven approach to design. Industrial design was responsible for aesthetic design but limited in impact due to a lack of training in clinical science. Physician users are involved however lack knowledge of development process requirements and their impact. Further that there are barriers to collaboration that prevent consistent and valued interactions. Finally, the research resulted in a confirmed app-based tool that would support the promotion of cMDD. Description: A Doctoral Thesis.

Contributors to Women's Leadership Development in Christian Higher Education: A Model and Emerging Theory
Dahlvig, Jolyn; Longman, Karen A.
Journal of Research on Christian Education, v23 n1 p5-28 2014
A theory of women's leadership development within the context of Christian higher education is proposed, based on qualitative research involving 16 participants. Motivators to advance into leadership roles were: (a) a sense of relational responsibility; (b) awareness of calling and giftedness for leadership, and (c) a mentoring relationship or role model. These emerging leaders typically experienced both validation and resistance that shaped the trajectory of their leadership journeys. Validation contributed to greater self-efficacy, resulting in motivation to engage broader leadership; conversely, some leaders experienced resistance and devaluation. The emerging theory recognizes the influence of environmental context and self-awareness.

Toward a Grounded Theory of Trust: Collaboration, Trust and Cooperation between ESL and Content-Area Teachers in a Secondary School
Ortloff, Jeremy H.
ProQuest LLC, Ph.D. Dissertation, Indiana University
In the field of secondary-level English as a Second Language (ESL), the ESL teacher (ESLT) works together with the Content-area teacher (CAT), building-level administrator and ESL coordinator to meet the learning needs of English Language Learners (ELLs). This ESL network depends on the collegial relationships of those comprising it. With this in mind, the purpose of this study was to locate, and make transparent, elements of the relationships between ESL teachers and colleagues in a K-12 setting, allowing for a richer investigation of the qualities of collaborative relationships. Further, this study intended to make theoretical contributions by drawing together a number of authors' work focusing on trust, collaboration, and mediating issues of power. These works included Sztompka's (1999) Sociological Theory of Trust (STT), the collective works of D'Amour, San Martin-Rodriguez, Beaulieu, and Ferrada-Videla (2005) on the Structural Model of Inter-professional Collaboration, and Carspecken's Interactive Typology of Power relations (1996) in an attempt to develop a theoretical model of how trust between colleagues emerged in education, specifically within the ESL setting. In my literature review I outlined the literature on the teaching profession and in particular the literature on the ESL teaching profession. This literature, in short, revealed a trend in deprofessionalizing teachers, while at the same time adding requirements. This is specifically problematic for ESL teachers, who tend to be stigmatized even by other teachers. I collected data in a variety of ways throughout this project. I conducted interviews, focus groups, traditional observations in a wide-variety of settings within the school, and shadowflections; a type of interview/observation, which I explain as an emergent method in my methodology chapter. I used a modified version of a constructivist grounded theory approach for collecting, analyzing, and reporting the qualitative data for this study. In this approach, I used emergent and theoretical analysis. From these analyses, I conclude with implications based on my hybrid grounded theory of trust, suggestions for future pathways on ESLT and CAT collaboration in secondary schools in the United States, and overarching programmatic concerns and suggestions for preparing future educators.

Why Do Parents Socialize Their Children to Behave Pro-Socially? An Information-Based Theory
Fabrizio Adriani
SOAS University of London
Silvia Sonderegger
University of Bristol - Department of Economics
February 13, 2009
We present a model of intergenerational transmission of pro-social values in which parents have information about relevant characteristics of society that is not directly available to their children. Differently from existing models of cultural transmission of values (such as Bisin and Verdier, 2001, and Tabellini, 2008) we assume that parents are exclusively concerned with their children's material welfare. If parents coordinate their educational choices, a child would look at her system of values to predict the values of her contemporaries, with whom she may interact. A parent may thus choose to instil pro-social values into his child in order to signal to her that others can generally be trusted. This implies that parents may optimally decide to endow their children with values that stand in contrast with maximization of material welfare, even if their children's material welfare is all they care about.

by Olaf Fischer The saying goes something like 'if at first you don't succeed, try and try again'. When you are starting a new business you have to keep this in mind if you are determined to make it work. If you have a 'half-hearted' attitude it won't carry you through the hard times.

The process of manifesting is new to some, and very common to others. You may have heard about it from the law of attraction. The idea is simple: what you think about is what you believe, and what you believe is what ultimately manifests into your existence.

You see, you are a creator. So, on the subject of getting the job of your dreams, we thought we would give you a few tips. All of these […]Continue Reading... No Comments.
It was a beautiful afternoon and was out for a walk when I saw them. Snowdrops. Spring was coming, I was sure of it. Then I looked across the street at a mountain of dirty snow. I looked at the park; it was still inaccessible. I sighed; spring was not here yet. I looked back to the flowers and enjoyed them for a few minutes. As I continued on my walk I thought about flowers, spring and the mountains of snow I climbed around.

"This process-based explanation of national identity creation in Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Russia is different from other works in several different aspects, making Blum's work a welcomed addition to the existing literature not only in the subject of national identity creation, but also in area studies. There are several reasons that make Blum's book a good read...[Blum] explores this process of national identity making using the tools of sociology as well as anthropology, which makes National Identity and Globalization: Youth, State and Society in Post-Soviet Eurasia an interdisciplinary book that fuses area studies with the subject of national identity creation."
Lerna K. Yanik, Bilkent University, International Studies Review
"This is a theoretically wide-ranging and methodologically ambitious study of the ways states and societies mediate the effects of cultural globalization. Blum incorporates insights from diverse literatures and regions to create a useful three-fold typology of absorption, rejection, and assertion. It serves well to explain how cultural entrepreneurs help fashion a hybrid identity from the confrontation between the hegemonic influences associated with the United States and invented or adapted local and national traditions. Blum combines methods of discourse analysis, interviews, and focus groups conducted during his field research to produce a convincing analysis of youth culture and national identity in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan. His study contributes to our understanding not only of the post-Soviet space but of the process of globalization more broadly."
Matthew Evangelista, Professor of Government, and Director, Peace Studies Program, Cornell University
"In this empirically rich and theoretically wide-ranging exploration of national identity construction in Baku, Astrakhan, and Almaty, Blum shows how states and societies struggle to come to grips with the imperatives of globalization while using the same to advance their own constructed interests in maintaining their fundamental uniqueness. Far beyond the former Soviet space, Blum's arguments will help readers reflect upon globalization and its discontents."
Ted Hopf, Senior Research Fellow, Davis Center for Russian and Eurasian Studies, Harvard University
"In one of the first works that in crisp detail makes concrete what has been argued by identity theorists, Douglas Blum illustrates the complex, interactive process in which social identities are constructed. Looking at yound people comparatively in three post-Soviet republics - Russia, Azerbaijan, and Kazakhstan - he shows how identities created by adults become those consumed by the next generation. Based on extensive field work and deep knowledge of the theoretical literature, this study looks at the various actors who imagined new national identities in the face of the challenge of globalization. Blum moves the investigation of identity formation at a moment of radical transformation a giant step forward."
Ronald Grigor Suny, Charles Tilly Collegiate Professor of Social and Political History, University of Michigan, and Professor Emeritus of Political Science and History, University of Chicago

Official reports have revealed that recent outbreaks of violence in one of Mexico's main tourist areas could be due to clashes between an independent cartel and the Zetas, providing another example of the evolution of criminal dynamics in the country.
Mexico's Defense Secretary says the army will send 500 soldiers to Ciudad Mier in the embattled state of Tamaulipas along the US-Mexico border, indicating that the Mexican government will continue to use the military as a stopgap in the fight against crime.
A recent wave of violence in Mexico's most important tourism corridor has sparked fears about new conflicts between drug cartels seeking to gain control over the area.
The testimony of an alleged former Zetas' plaza boss illustrates how deep the criminal syndicate's networks penetrated Coahuila's government in Mexico, a fact that has done little to impede the political ambitions of the former governor and the party boss implicated in the case.
Beginning as a group of Special Forces deserters at the service of the Gulf Cartel, the Zetas would go on to become one of the most powerful and feared cartels in Mexico before infighting and the loss of leaders began their decline.

Mr. Carothers, I think there is no harm in trying the sales idea and seeing if it works well for you. Some things may need tweeking, it may work quite well as presented, or you may find something you don't like causing you to abandon it. I have always found more is learned from my failures than my successes. Because, with instant success, you tyrpically happen upon it and never really understand the full nature of why. But, finding it through failures allows you to understand the depth of its nature. But, being a physicist my model may differ from yours.
although I know Nate hates being called that.
What I REALLY want to know is, why does everyone/anyone feel they are entitled to a CPK knife? I really don't get it. Someone can say, "Woah look at that mess. Not into it. I'll wait for market saturation to come into effect, or I will find another knife."
I have never lined up for a new Apple product, but I am glad that people do. That way I can go in and get it later when everyone who REALLY wanted one got it so it's slow. And Apple is still selling product and developing it quickly for the early adopters. When I get around to getting one, it will be cheaper and better than the one the first people got.
Go down to Ferrari and tell them you deserve a Ferrari cause you work hard but their sales tactics are lame and maybe they should consider changing them to accommodate your desires. Please record it and put it on YouTube as well.
Since you're asking, perhaps a lottry, presale list, or start the sale thread later in the day, or just at a different time than the previous week.
As far as I'm concerned, I only hope that your product quality and attention to detail NEVER CHANGE. aside from that, do as you will. I'll be sure to be on the lookout for one of these bad boys in blue terotuff particularly to match my field knife.
Hopefully I'll be able to grab a couple more of those to for posterity.
Thanks for a kickass product Nathan. Keep it up.

This conversation is starting to feel like it's polluting the intent of this thread which is a place for announcements regarding upcoming sales by Mr. Carothers.
If we want to continue on this train of thought maybe we could start a new thread specifically for the topic. And leave this one clean?

I'm looking forward to trying to snag a field knife too. The current sale time happens at 5am Saturday in my part of the world. What a way to start the day that would be!
Apparently a batch of 80 in the near future! Oh my! My kids will have their field knives to match dad! Cool!

Facebook Grows Bug-Bounty Payouts in 2014
Facebook paid $1.3 million in awards to security researchers in 2014, and 2015 is likely to be a strong year for the company's bug-bounty program.Facebook's security got a significant boost in 2014, thanks to the efforts of researchers who reported flaws to the social networking giant. Facebook reported the highlights of its bug-bounty program in a note posted on Feb. 25, revealing that $1.3 million awards were paid out to 321 researchers around the world in 2014. A Facebook spokesperson told eWEEK that the single largest payout in 2014 was $30,000, and the top earner collectively earned $86,000 in 2014. While the top single award was $30,000, the average award that Facebook paid was $1,788. Facebook's bug-bounty program awards researchers for responsibly disclosing security vulnerabilities. Facebook first began its bug bounty program in 2011 and has paid out more than $3 million in awards since then. Last year, Facebook saw an increasing number of bug reports flow into its bug-bounty program. There were 17,011 bugs filed with the program in 2014, a 16 percent year-over-year gain from 2013. Not all the bugs that Facebook receives have the same effect, and the fact that Facebook got 17,011 submissions from security researchers doesn't mean that Facebook has that many vulnerabilities. That said, the number of highly severe bugs that are reported to Facebook is, in fact, increasing.
"Sixty-one of last year's eligible bugs were categorized as high severity, 49 percent more than the previous year," Facebook Security Engineer Colin Green wrote in the Facebook note.

Doctor Review

I had an amazing experience with an amazing Dr! - Syracuse, NY
Dr. Baum is absolutely AMAZING! This can be a very embarrassing thing to deal with, but Dr. Baum makes you feel 100% comfortable! He answers any and all questions and never makes you feel like you're asking anything "silly". I couldn't be more happy with my results!! I would recommend Dr. Baum to everybody I knew that was thinking about getting this done. His staff is also amazing and helpful. He absolutely knows what he's doing and does it very well! He's not the type of Dr to try to talk you into getting something more expensive or getting something extra done that you don't need. He's very up front and honest. I couldn't have picked a better surgeon!!!

6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 15 Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage by Haruki Murakami
A New York Times #1 Bestseller, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage is the long-awaited new novel--a book that sold more than a million copies the first week it went on sale in Japan--from the award-winning, internationally best-selling author Haruki Murakami. Here he gives us the remarkable story of Tsukuru Tazaki, a young man haunted by a great loss; of dreams and nightmares that have unintended consequences for the world around us; and of a journey into the past that is necessary to mend the present. It is a story of love, friendship, and heartbreak for the ages.

Hamilton, the smash Broadway musical phenomenon and winner of 11 Tony Awards and a Pultizer Prize has history and musical fans everywhere still buzzing with excitement. The PBS Arts Fall Festival brings the making of the pop culture hit to life when it kicks off the PBS series, Great Performances, hosted by Lin-Manuel Miranda, later this month (airs on Rocky Mountain PBS on October 21, 9 p.m.).
In many ways, this musical is redefining how an entire generation of young fans is learning about history through unprecedented hip-hop musical performances. You can watch a portion of the documentary and join the cast as they visit historic locations. You'll also enjoy interviews with prominent personalities ranging from musicians and politicians, to entertainers like Jimmy Fallon – and even President Barack Obama.
The Belmar Library's Teen Advisory Board is proud to be joining forces with Rocky Mountain PBS and Green Mountain High School's Performing Arts Department on Wednesday, October 19 to present a sneak preview portion of the documentary that takes us behind the creation of the show and how Miranda adapted Hamilton's story into musical theater.
We kick the night off with performances from Green Mountain High School students, followed by a costume contest, door prizes, and then the main event - the 45-minute preview of the documentary. This is your chance to see it before anyone else!
The event is free and open to the public, but we do ask that you register so we know you're coming!
7 – 8 p.m. Wednesday, October 19Green Mountain High School Auditorium13175 W. Green Mountain Drive in Lakewood
About the PBS Arts Fall Festival: PBS premieres its sixth annual PBS Arts Fall Festival on Friday, October 21, with host Lin-Manuel Miranda, creator and star of the Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning musical Hamilton.

The festival presents diverse artists and performances from across the country, including programs from GREAT PERFORMANCES, LIVE FROM LINCOLN CENTER, and more. Most programs will be available online at video.pbs.org/ after their broadcast premiere. For more, visit pbs.org/pressroom.

The ukulele has become a new trend, along with being cool kitsch. Thanks to popular musicians like Jason Mraz, Taylor Swift and Zooey Deschanel, the ukulele is enjoying a long-overdue comeback. If you learn to play the ukulele, you'll be among a long list of famous plinkers, including Neil Armstrong, Lucille Ball and even Fozzie Bear.
So run, don't tip toe, to Lakewood Library's Ukulele for Beginners session taught by Rocky Mountain Ukulele Orchestra's maestro Gary Jugert. You'll get to know the instrument and walk out having learned a few songs! Grab a "strum buddy" and stop by for a couple hours of zany music making with the enigmatic ukulele.
Bring your own ukulele or sign up to borrow one of the 24 loaner ukuleles available. Please register two weeks prior to the event. Limited to 40 participants.

Wild prohibition-era parties, hot rod racing, bank robberies, two one-gallon-jug murders, five-alarm blazes and more! That's what's in store during an evening at the Arvada Library with Adult Services Librarian/ history geek Boyd Fletcher. The program details lesser-known parts of Arvada history focusing on the late 1800s through 1960. Stories are based on newspaper clippings with background information provided by the Arvada Historical Society. Listen to a lively lecture, watch a slide show and have a chance for Q&A with members of the Arvada Historical Society… all while enjoying light refreshments (not including one-gallon jugs).

Unless you live in a cave, you know election season is upon us. It's time to exercise your right as an American citizen and vote!
How will you decide on the issues? It's not like at the racetrack where you bet on the horse with the cutest name. (Full disclosure; I've done that.) These issues and candidates are sure to make an impact on our lives, so it's a good idea to do some research. And since research is in our DNA, we vote you look to the library for help.
Each of our locations has an area devoted to election materials. We invite you to stop by and review the materials. These informative pamphlets are free for you to take and discuss in the comfort of your home.
If you prefer the digital world, browse around our Election Guide. We've got great resources to help you find your polling location, register to vote, dig deeper into current issues, and research individual candidates.
Paring it all down from global, national and then local, we realize this fall's Colorado ballot promises to stir up strong emotions. That's why we're hosting a series called "Colorado Ballot Issues 2016." Representatives from Active Minds will offer an objective review of the ballot issues and a presentation of the arguments on each side of the proposals. Can't make it to one of our locations for this program? Dial-in and participate by phone at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 13. Call 303-275-6173 to register or just join us at the time of the program by calling 303-502-5189.
Let's all get out there and vote!
We know from our circulation statistics that we serve a county full of readers. But it seems like we're a county full of writers, too. And the Standley Lake Library wants to give you a platform.
Authors often have trouble finding live audiences. Some bookstores even want to charge writers to do a reading with them.
Not us. We're hoping to start a new public forum for writers this fall, mainly geared at those who've published novels, short stories, essays and memoirs. Traditionally published or self-published—it doesn't matter. We want to give you a chance to share your accomplishment and find a live audience through our Reading Series. We'll pair authors in groups of 2-3 to guarantee a lively, diverse experience for both you and the audience.
Want more details? Contact Sean Eads.
Truth be told, I've always believed in spirits. I'm not alone. A 2005 Gallup poll found that 37 percent of Americans believe in haunted houses, and even more believe in ghosts. "Other worldly" phenomena is represented in pretty much every genre of books and movies. Think about it… popular films such as "Ghost," "Ghostbusters" and "Paranormal Activity" have to be based on some reality, right? JCPL lists thousands of titles about ghosts. And don't even get me started on ghost hunting TV shows. That in itself is a paranormal phenomenon!
Ready to nurture your inner ghost curiosity? Here's your chance. Enjoy a fascinating afternoon of ghost hunting in Conifer. Mike Kaminski and friends from the Colorado Paranormal Society will be on hand with information and even some "ghostbusting" equipment to see if they can detect any paranormal activity at our own Conifer Library during this lively haunt!

Wheat Ridge Reads presents local author Nick Arvin and his novel of secrets and survival, The Reconstructionist. Join Wheat Ridge Library's Thursday Morning Book Group, meet Arvin, and discuss The Reconstructionist.
At a loose end after college, Ellis Barstow drifts back to his home town and a strange profession: reconstructing fatal traffic accidents. He seems to take to the work immediately, and forms a bond with his boss and mentor, John Boggs, an intriguing character of few but telling words.
"Car accidents are by far the most commonplace manner of premature death in America, and it's rare to find someone who hasn't been affected by one. It's surprising, then, that so little has been written about it in American fiction... This has changed with the appearance of a remarkable new novel, The Reconstructionist." ~ The Denver Post

Just after Serena Williams won the Olympic gold medal in tennis last weekend, she broke out into a little celebratory dance on the sidelines. And like a lot of what Williams does, her little shuffle became the focus of intense scrutiny.
When the sideline reporter asked her what the celebratory jig was, Williams played coy. "Actually, there is a name. But I don't know if I — it's inappropriate," she said. "It's just a dance we do in California."
That extemporaneous dance — known as the c-walk, or "Crip walk," after the notorious street gang that created it — was seen by some as glorification of gang culture.
"You couldn't help but shake your head," wrote Reid Forgrave at Fox Sports. "It was as if Serena just couldn't seem to avoid dipping into waters of controversy even as she'd ascended to the top of her sport."
Both Serena Williams and her sister, Venus, grew up and learned to play tennis in Compton , CA, a city which has become notoriously synonymous with the wider culture of gangs and gang violence. The dance has become more visible outside of gang circles through frequent references in popular culture.
The pop culture writer Jawn Murray, Trymaine Lee of the Huffington Post, and the tennis player Gabrielle Clark all sat down to discuss the propriety of Williams's dance choice and sports celebrations, in general.
What do you think of Serena's dance? Does it glorify gang culture? Or was she just having fun?

What the Heart Knows: Chants, Charms, and Blessings is a collection of poems to provide comfort, courage, and humor at difficult or daunting moments in life. It conjures forth laments, spells, invocations, chants, blessings, promises, songs, and charms. Here are pleas on how to repair a friendship, wishes to transform one's life or to slow down time, charms to face the shame of a disapproving crowd, invocations to ask for forgiveness, to understand the mysteries of happiness, and to bravely face a dark and different world. These words help us remember or grieve; they bolster courage and guard against evil; they help us celebrate and give thanks. This elegant gift book also includes a red ribbon for readers to mark their favorite poems.
Poet extraordinaire Joyce Sidman won the Newbery Honor Medal for Dark Emperor and Other Poems of the Night and continues to write poetry for children that has been called "fresh," "inspiring," and "accessible" to her young audience. She is intrigued by the idea of "words of power"—chants and charms that were once believed to have real influence in everyday life. Caldecott Honor-winning Pamela Zagarenski's beautiful art captures a world of emotion and the essence of Sidman's words.

—School Library Journal
"Each poem speaks directly from Sidman's heart to the reader's, addressing subjects of deep importance . . . Zagarenski's illustrations beautifully extend the poems with her dreamy style and deft use of white space, symbolism, and images from Sidman's text."
—The Horn Book Magazine, starred review
Gr 5–8—In their latest collaboration, Sidman and Zagarenski invite readers to ponder the power of words. Arranged in four sections, 29 brief poems include chants and charms; spells and invocations; laments and remembrances; and praise songs and blessings. By turns hopeful and comedic, melancholic and wistful, they touch on universal themes: lost love, the uneasiness of change, and the comfort of pets. Many kids will relate to the nostalgia and regret for the packed-away toy in "Lament for Teddy": "Where is that softest of bedfellows,/whose battered nose hung askew?" Other highlights include "Chant to Repair a Friendship," "Invitation to Lost Things," and "Heartless." Zagarenski's mixed-media paintings underscore Sidman's words, sometimes with subtle use of white space and muted color. Others burst from the page in spectacular fashion, especially the painting of stony-faced lions that accompanies "Song of Bravery" and its stirring conclusion: "…here I go, stepping out/through the door/of my own shadow:/into the glare of the arena/to face the lions." Poetry fans will savor the wordplay and whimsy, as teachers appreciate both its craft and wide appeal. This spectacular volume rewards careful reading and capably attests to the power of words to praise and comfort, heal and inspire, as in the rousing "Starting Now": "It is time to…speak until the air/holds all of our voices./Time to weave for each other/a garment of brightness."—Marilyn Taniguchi, Beverly Hills Public Library, CA
Profound, lushly illustrated poems explore some of life's more trying moments. In their third collaboration, Sidman and Zagarenski (Red Sings from the Treetops: A Year in Colors, 2009, etc.) combine their Newbery Honor– and Caldecott Honor–worthy talents to tackle life's more ineffable conditions. Lyrically arranging the collection's 29 poems into groupings such as "Chants & Charms" and "Laments & Remembrances," Sidman takes a serious look at a number of moments likely to concern young teens. The volume's title bespeaks the tricky blend of rationality and emotion inherent in often baffling situations like aging, loss, and loneliness, and Sidman employs deftly sophisticated verse to engage them head on. Especially provocative is her direct address of a subject like happiness-- "Happiness, you're like a breeze / sucked in by eager lungs. / You fill and feed us, / and yet somehow, in the exhale, / you are shared"--coupled with Zagarenski's richly layered, slightly surreal depiction of a figure trying to catch this transitory state. In many spreads, the abstract suggestiveness of Zagarenski's fanciful mixed-media paintings and digital renderings contrasts wonderfully with Sidman's bold metaphors, as in "Blessing from the Stars": "We are the stars. / We sing with our light /… / alone, / together." A winning combination of word and image sure to challenge young readers both to contemplate big subjects and to act. (Poetry. 12 & up)

Chant to Repair a Friendship
(a triolet)
Come, friend, forgive the past;
I was wronga dn I am grieving.
Tell me that this break won't last—
take my hand; forgive the past.
Anger's brief, but love is vast.
Take my hand; don't think of leaving.
Come, friend, forgive the past;
I was wrong and I am grieving.
Come, Happiness
you're not what everyone says:
some flashy friend
who shows up with fireworks,
trailing fame and glory.
You are more like a raindrop,
governed by mysterious principles.
You fall from the sky and hit—plop!—with
a cool kiss of surprise.
Or maybe you're a heartbeat,
always there,
speaking in your low, soft voice,
pumping, warming, strengthening
under the surface of things,
just doing your work.
Happiness, you're like a breeze
sucked in by eager lungs.
You fill and feed us,
and yet somehow, in the exhale,
you are shared.
So come,
come to us, Happiness.
Bathe us with your cool spray.
Fill us with your splendid breath.
Help us do your work.
Chant Against the Dark
Don't come close, dark.
Don't brush my face with your sticky hands.
Stay as cool and distant as a train whistle.
Don't single me out,
don't make me answer your questions.
Let me curl here, safe in my circle of light.
Don't come close, dark.
Don't speak to me in your crooked tongue.
I don't want to hear your stories.
I have stories of my own to tell myself all night.
Don't come close, dark.
Don't breathe on me.
When the lamp clicks off,
don't creak and shift
like some wild-eyed horse
waiting for its rider.
Oh, dark,
don't call my name.
Song of Bravery
This one's not a sure thing.
I'm not bound to win.
I don't think I'll ace it this time.
I won't break a leg,
make my own luck,
or reach the stars.
The sun is not shining on me today.
The force is not strong.
Before the day is out,
I'll taste the grit of dust.
Maybe I didn't do all I could.
Or maybe I did
but there were others who did more.
Maybe I'll never know.
But here I go—
bones clicking quietly together,
blood flowing dutifully
from heart to hands and back again—
here I go, stepping out
through the door
of my own shadow:
into the glare of the arena
to face the lions.

I am quite used to the highly polished black wood of my piano acting as a mirror, but was surprised, when I uploaded this shot of the keyboard to my hard drive, to find that the keys themselves had acted like little mirrors, reflecting the pattern in the blue tinted UV resistant glass in our French doors. I am sure that, if I had been trying to get this effect, success would have eluded me! Straight from my Nikon Coolpix S6200 camera in Auto mode.

Random Thoughts - The Good and Weird So Far
Kent Wilson
October 30 2014 01:00PM
We're about an eigth of the way through the season and the picture is still pretty blurry, though a few things are starting to come into focus. The main thing being the fact Calgary probably isn't bad enough to finish first in the Connor McDavid race. I'll talk about that and Hartley's weird experiments, Sean Monahan's step forward, Mikael Backlund's usage and Johnny Gaudreau's development...
Five things: Well well
Ryan Lambert
October 30 2014 10:03AM
1. It continues
Last week I talked about how the Flames' winning ways should remain upsetting to fans, and people largely did not want to hear it. Lots of talk about how this team was never bad enough to finish in the bottom five, and so on.
Well, the Flames have three points from their last three games (a humbling of the Hurricanes, a loss to the Capitals in which they looked overwhelmed, and a shootout loss really deserved to get more against a suddenly bumbling Montreal side). The Flames remain in the playoff hunt as a consequence: tied for a wild card spot with 12 points from 11 games, but technically sixth in the West as it stands. Which, if you'd prefer the team win, has to be considered a good thing.
Flames Make Moves: Granlund Recalled From AHL
Ryan Pike
October 29 2014 04:36PM
After a bit of an unclear few hours today, the Calgary Flames have announced their roster moves stemming from the injuries they faced last night against Montreal.
Center Matt Stajan has been placed on the injured reserve with a knee injury and is expected to be out for approximately six weeks, per the team's release. To take his place on the roster, the club has recalled Markus Granlund from the American Hockey League's Adirondack Flames.
News and Notes - October 29 2014

Yes, we're talking 'bout practice. And a few other Flames-related things.

The Insights Discovery Personal Profile, a 20-page profile of an individual which is accurate, memorable and user-friendly, has transformed thousands of lives worldwide. Based solidly on the pioneering personality profiling work of the renowned psychologist Dr Carl G Jung, the Discovery Profile is a vital tool to deepen the process of self-understanding.
The Discovery system encompasses a simple model:
Understanding myself
Understand you
Adapt to you to improve our relationship and my effectiveness
For centuries, philosophers have identified four broad types of personality. Dr Carl Jung further developed this idea in the 20th Century. He suggested that all four personality traits or energies are present in all of us and the different balances between them are what make us unique. The Insights Discovery Profile® is a highly accurate and validated system for measuring those balances.
The full range of psychological types can be depicted on a circle called the Insights Wheel. At its simplest it identifies four groups or quadrants - Insights call them Fiery Red, Sunshine Yellow, Earth Green and Cool Blue. All of us will have one of these 'colour energies' as our dominant, preferred style of thinking, working and interacting with others.
Each colour energy has its strengths and weaknesses, depending on the situation and your perspective! In a team setting, a professional with Fiery Red energy may appreciate the considerate and supportive inter-personal actions of a colleague with Earth Green energy, while they in turn might respect the bold, 'go-ahead' Fiery Red attitude. However during a challenging period, the Earth Green energy may find their colleague aggressive and controlling, while in turn, the Fiery Red energy may find the Earth Green stubborn, uncommunicative and unwilling to change.
Insights suggest that if we understand how we and others are likely to respond in a given situation, we can communicate with them in a way that allows everyone's best qualities to be recognised and valued, ease any tension and reduce the likelihood of misunderstandings.
This is also important where different teams have to interact. Often problems between teams occur where there is a culture clash. Insights can help identify the different colour energy or culture of teams and for them to value and appreciate the differences. Ultimately this helps organisations to become much more effective.
At a time when any company is only as good as its people and their knowledge, if you can harness that mutual understanding across the business you have the basis for significant strategic advantage.
