Publications for Teachers
"Teachers are the heroes of the classroom ... on the front line day after day, week after week, dedicated to meeting the needs of each child in their classroom."
- Rod Paige, U.S. Secretary of Education
Teaching Our Youngest--A Guide for Preschool Teachers and Child Care and Family Providers: This booklet draws from scientifically based research about what can be done to help children develop their language abilities, increase their knowledge, become familiar with books and other printed materials, learn letters and sounds, recognize numbers and learn to count. Many examples of strategies for teaching these skills are included here. Also included are examples of ways to create an environment in preschool classrooms that will nurture children's natural curiosity and their zest for learning.
Put Reading First: The Research Building Blocks for Teaching Children to Read: This booklet summarizes for teachers what researchers have discovered about how to teach children to read successfully. It describes the findings of the National Reading Panel Report and provides analysis and discussion in five areas of reading instruction: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and text comprehension. Each section suggests implications for classroom instruction and provides other information.
Tips for Reading Tutors (Brochure): Reading is the basis for learning and school success. While reading is learned primarily in the classroom, many students need extra time and help. Research shows that tutoring is a great way for individuals and groups outside school to support learning. Effective tutoring requires appropriate training and careful planning. This brochure presents some basic tips for reading tutors. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Ready to Read, Ready to Learn: This brochure presents First Lady Laura Bush's education initiatives. It includes section titles such as: Bringing What Works to Parents; The Tools to Teach What Works; Recruiting the Best and Brightest; Strong Teachers, Strong Families, Strong Students.
Failure Is Not An Option (Two-Sided Bookmark): This is No Child Left Behind's guiding principle, with quotations by President George W. Bush and Secretary of Education Rod Paige.
Publications for Teachers and Parents
"There is no more powerful advocate for children than a parent armed with information and options."
- Rod Paige, U.S. Secretary of Education
Helping Your Child Become a Reader: Other than helping their children to grow up healthy and happy, the most important thing that parents can do is to help them develop their reading skills. This booklet offers pointers on how to build the language skills of young children, from infancy to age 6, and provides numerous activities to boost children's love of reading. It includes a list of typical language accomplishments for different age groups, suggestions for books children will love, and resources for children with reading problems or learning disabilities. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Child With Homework: Homework can help children to develop positive study skills and habits, improve their thinking and memory abilities, and encourage them to use time well, learn independently and take responsibility for their work. This booklet helps parents of elementary and middle school students understand why homework is important, and provides suggestions for helping children complete assignments successfully. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Preschool Child: How well children will learn and develop and how well they will do in school depends on a number of things, including their health and physical well-being, social and emotional preparation, language skills and general knowledge of the world. This booklet highlights techniques parents can use to encourage their children to develop the skills necessary for success in school and life by focusing on activities that make learning fun. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Child Through Early Adolescence: Learning as much as possible about the world of early adolescents is an important step toward helping children through the fascinating, confusing and wonderful years from ages 10 to 14. Based on the latest research in adolescent development and learning, this booklet addresses questions, provides suggestions and tackles issues that parents of young teens generally find most challenging. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Child Become a Responsible Citizen: Just as children must be taught to read and write, solve math problems and understand science concepts and events in history, so must they be guided in developing the qualities of character that are valued by their families and by the communities in which they live. This booklet provides information about the values and skills that make up character and good citizenship and what parents can do to help children develop strong character. It suggests activities that parents and school-aged children can do to put those values to work in their daily lives and tips for working with teachers and schools to ensure that they act together to promote the basic values they want their children to learn and use. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Child Learn Mathematics: Our increasingly technological world demands strong skills in math, not only in the workforce but also in every- day life, and these demands will only increase over the lifetimes of our children. The major portion of this booklet is made up of fun activities that parents can use with children from preschool age through grade 5 to strengthen their math skills and build strong, positive attitudes toward math. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Child Learn Science: Every day is filled with opportunities to learn science--without expensive chemistry sets or books. Parents don't need degrees in chemistry or physics to help their children learn science. All that is needed is a willingness to observe and learn with them and, above all, to make an effort and take the time to nurture their natural curiosity. This booklet provides parents of children ages 3 through 10 with information, tools and activities they can use in the home and community to help their child develop an interest in the sciences and learn about the world around them. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Helping Your Child Succeed in School: Every child has the power to succeed in school and in life and every parent, family member and caregiver can help. This booklet provides parents with information, tools and activities they can use in the home to help their child develop the skills critical to academic success. (Available in English and Spanish.)
Put Reading First: Helping Your Child Learn to Read: This brochure, designed for parents of young children, describes the kinds of early literacy activities that should take place at school and at home to help children learn to read successfully. It is based on the findings of the National Reading Panel.
Questions Parents Ask About Schools: This publication provides answers to commonly asked questions on topics such as getting ready for school, monitoring school, helping with reading and working with schools and teachers.

In Their Own Words
"Having been a student here, I feel a real connection with the institution and the students. I can't imagine a better place for me to teach. At Berklee, I can pursue both of my passions: literature and music. I develop both as I meet talented students and faculty, and as I do my own research, professional and creative writing, and musical projects."
"In addition to poetry and literature from around the world, I teach nonsense literature. This might sound strange. It's not something students would see in a typical college lit. class, but I suppose mine are not typical college lit. classes. Behind the fun and craziness of literary nonsense is a rigorous sense of aesthetics and a bedrock of intelligent and constructive rebellion—a way of questioning the status quo and an outlet for individual, creative thought. What better education for a Berklee student, or anyone for that matter?"
"My Children's Literature and Music class is all about respecting children and recognizing how our culture is created and sustained by them. All of the good and all of the bad in our cultures start with how we raise our children. I try to show students how to appreciate the amazing literature and music out there for kids. In the process, we question our preconceived notions of childhood, and hopefully come out with a fresh awareness of our culture and ourselves. The last step is to put students on the path to creating intellectually challenging and aesthetically interesting entertainment and education for children. All of this knowledge also can serve as a way to get into the extremely lucrative industry of children's entertainment and education!"

One never sees other athletes in the Olys crying publicly.
One never sees other athletes in the Olys crying publicly.
This has been a touchy subject for me. I particularly think back to ABC cameras intruding upon a private moment when Angela Nikodinov got very emotional backstage holding her face in tears when she learned she would not be a part of the 2002 Olympic team at Nationals or after Johnny Weir's disappointing LP at the 2007 Nationals when he broke down in tears in the kiss & cry. In the latter case, the editors of the tv broadcast had the nerve to cut right to a shot of Evan Lysacek mugging to the camera in joy over his own great performance only to try and make it look like he was ecstatic over Weir's meltdown. I think it is unfair to the athletes and lacks class on the part of the network to do that sort of thing.

Once again the North American media has to insult Evgeni somehow with that misleading pic, as he *did not* cry, never shed a tear despite his loss. He took it all in stride, as can be seen in the interview afterwards, he smiled & said he would accept two silver & one gold, not bad.
You know I honestly don't think I've ever seen Evgeni cry; get emotional, yes, but never cry.
I think it is worse when they keep showing the skaters who have already skated backstage and thier reactions to the scores of thier competitors. Nobody is going to be happy about being beat, it just makes for an uncomfortable situation especially with sneaky editing.
I have no problem with the K&C, especially since all of the kids know the camera is on. Like tinymavy here, it's the 'behind-the-scenes' that I wish they'd quit. Besides, who really complains about seeing someone be overcome with emotion when they have the skate of their life? I think it's sweet. I also think that skaters have to continue with the program, no matter what happens, and so they have some pent up emotion when they get off the ice. Hockey players, baskteball players, etc., just say an expletive out loud when they play goes bad and the cameras sure show that. I saw Sidney Crosby say the F-word the other day in an Olympic hockey game. Imagine if they had to keep smiling the entire game what might happen when they were done. Besides, it's not true other Olypians don't cry or show emotions like that. Remember the Italian downhiller who fell and threw her poles? Athletes are people, not automatons. They have feelings, too.I think it is worse when they keep showing the skaters who have already skated backstage and thier reactions to the scores of thier competitors. Nobody is going to be happy about being beat, it just makes for an uncomfortable situation especially with sneaky editing.
I m afraid with all this media crap that creates him like he is a monster, if evgeni will be booed in Gala, and that honestly would mean the end of fs for me. I hope audience is more clever.
People buy whatever a newspaper writes??there is some filter process alway to do.
The challenge is that skaters are required to sit in Kill and Cry. It used to be that some skaters just left. They don't anymore. I don't know if it is an ISU rule like attending press conferences or if each country has its own rules.
I think the wise coach would train a skater that the performance is not over until they are in the privacy (sort of) of the dressing room - or, like Brian Boitano, a bathroom stall
I highly doubt that will happen Seniorita. Canadian skating fans know that, gold or not, Plush is still a giant in the sport & will show their appreciation for that.I m afraid with all this media crap that creates him like he is a monster, if evgeni will be booed in Gala, and that honestly would mean the end of fs for me. I hope audience is more clever.
I know I should not generalize, but I honestly witnessed with my own two eyes a hostile crowd toward Evgeni on Thursday night, the mens figure skating final, and that from the pro-Canadian crowd with which I sat. I'll never forget that, especially the young Canadian lady making the most disgusting gesture with her thumbs & fingers when his name was announced. And the hostile silence that greeted me when I yelled out "GOOOOOOOOOOOOOO EVGENI"!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also, when I waved the Russian flag; I was the only one to do so in my section.
I do think because of the North American media's bias toward him as a Russian he may not get received very well. I'm not saying booing, but definitely nothing compared to the reception for the North American skaters. JMHO.
EDITED TO ADD: just wanted to mention, don't be fooled (as I was), what goes on these boards actually goes on in real life. They're one in the same, which shocked the heck out of me, because I didn't expect to see that in real life, but, hey, sports brings out our true selves; both good & bad.

Dont misunderstand my worry, I needed to hear your comment. I m still really puzzled with the video still that made him look like stallin in iron mask. Although I laughed at the end. Media has scary power. I should trust people more.
Well I wouldn't minimize Evans win anyway because it was irrelevant to Plush losing, although it is easy to blame someone else, cause it was harder to blame Plushy for the loss, then I read Mathman's take and I decided I wont blame anyone. First day I thought I would feel better with all the stuff going on net, facebook etc about Plush wuzrobbed, eurosport polls and all that jazz but it was worse like a thorn on the throat, I realised it was too close and if plush had won with one point margin it would have been the same outcry from the other side, as it is now about evans edge call and axel, and I dont know what else, if plush had won would he be dragged the same for pcs scores and ur and who knows what else also, so would I like it? No. Thats why I dont feel Evan win worths less.
Not that I m happy with all the newfound plush hate, but well..if Mathman survived the MK crap, i can do it too.
It's part of the game.
What I did NOT like was the cameras following Joannie onto the ice to see her weep for her mother as she practiced.
I don't think Canadians are that ungracious. Don't worry, Seniorita. It will be fabulous.

Question On 1970's AllNite TV Anyone Watch Channel 20 or 36 Way Back When ?
Original post made by 70s TV Watcher, Crescent Park, on Apr 26, 2013
There is something, a rather trivial thing that has been bothering me for years ... for decades.
Back in the 1970's there used to be 2 regular TV channels that broadcast all night movies. Channel 20 KEMO with Jay Brown's Spartan Dodge All-Night Theater ... I think it was, and Channel 36 (I forget the call letters) with 3M Theater with the Old Sourdough and Wachikanokee his native American sidekick.
Being a kid back then I used to love to stay up late and watch these movies, and at the end of the day ... they would sign off, even though it was supposed to be all-night. This was before they would bombard everyone with all-night commercials. TV used to be OK sometimes.
It's the sign-off video I am trying to find out about, and I think it was for Channel 36 ... but it might have been Channel 20.
There was a song and an animation in which I recall a bird flying with more or less uplifting and inspirational lyrics about people getting along and not fighting and during the animation part of it was two robots fighting in a boxing ring, a black one and a white one ... at least I think ... it was so old at the time I did not even have a color TV! Imagine that?
Can anyone recall this, and if so do you have any idea what the video or song I am thinking of was? I would love to be able to search You-Tube to see if the video is there somewhere and if I can recall it, and the music was something I fondly remember and would like to find out the name and if the audio is for sale anywhere.
Sorry to interrupt and thanks for reading. Fingers crossed.

36 was KICU? Dunno.
For a while it was "The Perfect 36" with Carol Doda doing promos. It made an impression on a young preteen male.... and later as a teen... :-)
Can't help you with the video. Sounds like a job for youtube.

I remember Carol Doda, the Perfect 36.
I think this was after she was the "mascot" of the channel.
They had great movies on at that time.
Sherlock Holmes theater, old sic-fi, bogart film festival.
I've tried searching and looking on You-Tube, but I don't have much to go on.
I just have a snippet or two of the lyrics, but mostly just the recall of "something".
Sure would like to know what that was.
I used to like TV back then, even with commercials it was better than it is today, or at least most of it.

They showed the Lina Wertmuller flick, "Swept Away" on channel 36 at about 3:00am back in 1979. What a shock that was for a college girl pulling an all-mightier studying!

That is such a great movie. I would not get much studying done if that movie was on. I remember seeing so many great movies back then ... the only price was waking up tired as heck the next day!

The berries of the Goji plant (Lycium barbarum) have been treasured for centuries by the Himalayan people. These berries flourish in the tranquil valleys that are naturally protected by the Majestic Himalayan Mountains. The nutrient rich soil and fresh mountain air guarantee nearly perfect conditions for the plants to blossom.
Goji, also known as WolfBerry, formerly a Tibetan secret, was used in ancient recipes as a delicious elixir that provided many natural benefits. Traditionally and presently, Goji Juice is used as a soothing, yet powerful, health-promoting tonic.
Goji is rich in naturally occurring minerals (Zinc, Calcium, Germanium, Selenium, Phosphorus, Copper and Iron) and many amino acids (Isoleucine & Methione).
Goji contains polysaccharides and phytonutrients. Goji is a natural source of anti-oxidant vitamins.

|Check-in before
Thank you for a pleasant stay in your nice and clean apartment. The location is perfect at the heart of the historical city centre. Arantxa was a very kind and helpful hostess.
Perfect! The studio is clean, and as pictured; Arantxa & Jorge allowed us early entry to drop off our bags while the studio was being cleaned.
Everything we needed for our 2 1/2 week stay was there........and the bed is COMFORTABLE!
The location is ideal, close to everything. We are 74 & 64 years old respectively, and Eric walks with a cane.
We walked from the studio to the bus station, the train station, (just about everywhere, we even took the bus to El Palo and walked back), and when we departed we walked with our luggage to the cruise terminal.
The mercado is close by, and there are well appointed supermarkets within easy reach.
We'd come back.
I have only good things to say about the apartment!
However, this was me and my friends first time using Wimdu, and we will definetly use it again! Arantxa was very polite and on the first she introduced us to the apartment and gave us a brief overview about Malaga. The apartment itself was very clean and we had everything we needed. Furthermore, the situation of the apartment was excellent it was right in the center of Malaga! We will come back for sure!
what a nice experience.
Very clean and all comfort.
Situated in the hart of Malaga and quiet at night.
We will return for sure.
Many thanks to Arantxa
Everything's great! We liked the Studio very much. It is located very centrally in the historic center – everything you need is nearby. The Studio was very clean and well equipped. For example, really nice and warm large blankets (important in winter) and wide mattresses. Due to its layout – a kind of corridor separates the kitchen and living room area from the sleeping area - even this small accommodation offered a bit of privacy to both of us. The handover of the keys was reliable and punctual. Arantxa was really nice, and gladly we would come back to her Studio, if we went to Málaga again.
We had a great time in Malaga. We were very satisfied with the apartment and the hosts were really nice.
It was a pleasure staying in the studio, directly in the city center! We enjoyed your friendliness, your openness, and your perfect English!
Arantxa, una anfitriona fantástica!
No dudaría en alojarme otra vez con ella!
Muchas gracias por todo!
The appartment is perfecty located in the heart of the old city. It had just been renovated by Arantxa and George and it was completely up to date. Good bathroom and beds. There is a well equipped kitchen as well, but we never used that, with so many nice restaurants in the neighborhood.
Arantxa and George are extremely helpful and nice people.
L'appartamento di Arantxa è davvero un'ottima soluzione per visitare Malaga. La cucina è funzionale e completa, il bagno ha una doccia molto grande e confortevole e il letto è piuttosto comodo. Malaga si gira tranquillamente a piedi e dall'appartamento alla stazione si arriva in circa 15 minuti. Dovessi visitare di nuovo la città, tornerei qui anche perchè Arantxa è una padrona di casa perfetta e disponibile ad aiutare per qualsiasi esigenza.

Gay rights lobbyists plan to use their victory at the Supreme Court to push legislation that would ensure married same-sex couples are eligible for federal benefits in all 50 states.
But the groups said their victory was incomplete because it's not clear from the court ruling if married gay couples would lose their benefits if they move to one of the 37 states where gay marriage is illegal. That means another major lobbying battle is at hand for groups on both sides of the marriage debat
That means lobbyists for gay and civil rights groups can go on offense, which they plan to do with a campaign for the Respect for Marriage Act. The bill would fully repeal DOMA and ensure that "state of ceremony" takes precedence over "state of residence" when the government decides whether a gay couple is eligible for tax breaks, entitlement benefits and other federal programs
Now, every individualized person, group, sect, entity is guaranteed everything their little heart desires.
Gay lobbys next target:: benefits in all 50 states`
There is no constitutional authority for the federal government to refuse recognition to a valid state marriage.
I disagree with federal benefits being paid to same sex couples.
I also believe it is a mistake for our government to rule against the will of the people to support a deviant and sinful lifestyle
quote:If they do, I'll back YOU over them.
I think the radical gay lobby has their sights set on attacking religion. Its later down the road, but its coming.
quote:Correct. But, they did believe greatly in liberty and a pretty big key to liberty is the right to do what one wants as a consenting adult if it doesn't infringe upon another. Alas, we have MANY MANY MANY laws that violate liberty. But, that's another thread.
Oh please. The founding fathers NEVER considered homosexuality/same sex marriage a right.
What does a pair of gays getting married do to negatively affect you in any way whatsoever?
quote:Are you about to tell me that they can all marry a person of the opposite sex? Cause, well..........weak.
Uh, NO ONE is prevented from getting married now - in any state.

Smile at Fear
A Retreat with Pema Chodron on Discovering Your Radiant Self-ConfidenceWe all have fears, but when we look closely at them, we discover that behind each fear resides a basic fear of ourselves. We're afraid to look at our habitual styles of thinking and behaving because we might not always like what we see. Ironically it is this fear of honest self-reflection that keeps us trapped in patterns of stress and discontentment. Here is a vision for moving beyond this… Read More

I just want to make sure that I'm doing this correctly. My wife and I are working on costumes and this is my first time working with Fiberglass/Bondo to shape and work with items. So we wouldn't hurt any of the other armor pieces we worked with first, I decided to try my hand at Pepakura first.
I created the Pepakura armor piece (shoulder bells). Then did 2 coats of resin on them, then fiberglass clothed them and resined them again. I then sanded it down to smooth it and get rid of anything jagged. Now I'm going to use Bondo to shape and create better curves to fill in dips and even it out. Then I'll sand that and then primer and paint it.
That sound about right? Am I on the right track?
Thank you.

This started when someone said Giants will never ever draft a black QB? lol what the hell? What a joke that is man
Superbowl Champion Anthony Wright says sup rototroll

Do your homework and learn about these kids instead of just going by COLOR, Teddy Bridgewater, Jameis Winston, these are very smart kids, they are not your typical "THUGS" (as some see most young black men sadly) playing QB these are great kids who are mature beyond their years
Teddy Bridgewater is a very smart QB and read defenses better than most in College Football Right Now which is why he is considered the #1 QB in the 2014 NFL Draft by most
Times are changing, if your still racist and you have a problem with Black QB's...well you might as well stop watching NFL Football because it is a lot more coming regardless if you like them or not

Excerpt: "Troy Aikman has been a loyal Tony Romo supporter for several years. The Hall of Fame quarterback and current FOX NFL analyst is rarely critical of the current Dallas Cowboys signal caller and says Romo is still the right guy for the franchise.
But with Romo turning 33 in April, Aikman said Thursday that it would be a good idea for his former team to start looking for their quarterback of the future, possibly even in this year's NFL Draft."I like the way the Packers did it for all those years," Aikman said on NFL.com, answering a question sent in to the show by DCFanatic.com. "To bring a guy in, essentially every season, whether you draft him in the fourth round, or fifth round, or third round, whatever it might be, I think there's something to be said for that.
"I don't think they need another quarterback, to make that clear, but because of Tony's age, they certainly have to start addressing who the guy is going to be that comes in after him. If there's a guy that they can pick up and maybe develop in the third, fourth round, I think that's a real positive thing for them." Read more...

Reviews for this host's other properties
Very good located, cosy appartment and Vladimkr is a very friendly and reliable person. I would come again!
The clean and spacious, excellent to walk to the Kremlin and near metro location, there is a "spectacular" supermarket opposite to the apartment across the street. The jacuzzi is not working.
El apartamento limpio y espacioso, localización inmejorable para ir andando al Kremlin y cerca de parada de metro, hay un supermercado"espectacular" frente al apartemento cruzando la calle. El jacuzzi no funciona.
Vladimir is a very pleasant man and he is quite Professional. The flat and everything is top level. Luxury, very well decorated, very central...Those few days were a dream and it was very nice to get back0 this beautiful flat to have a rest after walking in Moscow. My eighty old father keeps saying : "if I still live a little bit more I will come back to Vladirmir's". As for me I am very happy having chosen that flat and I highly recommend it !!!! In addition to that I thought I would have found hostile people because the international crisis between East and West and people were very friendly...Two guys in the street even took us in their car to lead us to Air France officies as we couldn't find them !!!! I celebrated my 50 th birthday over there and I will keep this in my mind and heart as a very
fond memory...
Apartment large and spacious for a couple. The photos are representing the rooms very truly. We always travel abroad for work and so far this is one of the best flats we ever rented. It's a great location, in the very center of Moscow. A few minutes from a supermarket, a metro station, Arbat, ... Only we choose it also because of the jacuzzi where to relax after a working day but it didn't work. And two kitchen doors had to be repaired
An apartment very well located close to the center, as it was marked, helpful and polite host. Plains shops and restaurants nearby. Only downside: sofa which is not really comfortable. Bernard de Paris.
Un appartement très bien situé tout près de centre, comme c'était marqué, un hôte serviable et polie. Plains commerces et restaurants à coté. Seul bémol: canapé qui n'est pas vraiment confortable. Bernard de Paris.
The apartment is in a perfect location, security is certainly good gewährleistet.Die Street is a quiet side street about 200 meters from the Old Arbat Street, about 400 from Smolenskaya Metro Station, 30 minute walk to the Kremlin.
Vladimir is hilfsbereit.Die apartment is very clean in winter with central heating a little too warm, as it does not regulate the heating kann.Die apartment offers all the comforts to be similar at home to fühlen.Im contrast to the clean apartment is the scruffy staircase for that comes to probably no tenants or flat owners responsible fühlt.Also not scare the apartment is the apartment Quite the contrary one enters with a inner door then upon entering the staircase actually Wohnungstür.Diese door is so stable, the man opened using human power impossible or destroy So could absolute certainty.
A Russian mobile phone card you can get at Vladimir, these are vorrättig next to the phone in front of the apartment .. In this connection one can in Moscow calls or calls from abroad erhalten.Das WiFi works very fast.
So in total the moscow conditions adequates price-performance ratio.
9/10 points
Die Wohnung liegt in einer perfekten Lage,die Sicherheit ist sicherlich gut gewährleistet.Die Strasse ist eine ruhige Nebenstrasse etwa 200m von der alten Arbat Strasse,ca.400 vom U-Bahnhof Smolenskaya,30 Gehminuten zum Kreml.
Wladimir ist hilfsbereit.Die Wohnung ist sehr sauber im Winter bei zentraler Heizung etwas zu warm,da man die Heizung nicht regulieren kann.Die Wohnung bietet allen Komfort um sich ähnlich wie zu hause zu fühlen.Im Gegensatz zur sauberen Wohnung ist das ungepflegte Treppenhaus für das sich wohl kein Mieter oder Wohnungsbesitzer verantwortlich fühlt.Also beim betreten des Treppenhauses nicht erschrecken die Wohnung ist das Gegenteil.Die Wohnung betritt man mit einer Vortür dann kommt die eigentlich Wohnungstür.Diese Tür ist so stabil das mann diese mit Menschenkraft unmöglich öffnen oder zerstören könnte also absolute Sicherheit ist gegeben.
Eine russische Mobiltelefon Karte kann man bei Vladimir bekommen,diese liegen vorrättig neben dem Telefon der Wohnung vor..Bei diesen Anschluss kann man in Moskau Anrufen oder Anrufe aus dem Ausland erhalten.Das WLAN funktioniert sehr Schnell.
Also ingesamt den moskauer Verhältnissen adequates Preis-Leistungsverhältniss.
9/10 Punkten
when I walked into the apartment of Vladimir I marveled at how it seemed to me that everything I was familiar! environment, accomodation, peace, silence, comfort and location have been a pleasant stay!
We are thrilled! Everything was wonderful! Great host!

Good luck!
i am from upstate ny and so far think if cuomo is sending a message to all ny gun owners its time everybody boycotts hunting in ny. he wont have the fees & $ associated with it no more to steal from. the new laws are going to make anyone with a pistol apply every 5 years to see if they approve of you..insane. i own a few properties in the state and as soon as i can sell i am going south unless we can get these laws changed. i shoot on a league and so far am getting alot of support. its time to stand up to him..
They don't care about the people's rights as they think they know best. It's time to move.
If you think your pissed now, look at what they originally proposed.. Oh and make sure to watch the short clip.. Very telling.. They know it would damage their agenda of disarming the people if this gets out mainstream.
Republican Assemblyman Steve McLaughlin Reveals The Gun Control ?Laundry List? Democrats Have In Mind « 4 Liberty Sake
1. Confiscation of assault weapons
2. Confiscation of ten round clips
3. Statewide database for ALL Guns
4. Continue to allow pistol permit holders information to be made public
5. Label semiautomatic shotguns with more than 5 rounds or pistol grips as assault weapons
6. Limit the number of rounds in a magazine to 5 and confiscation and forfeiture of banned magazines
7. Limit possession to no more than two (2) magazines
8. Limit purchase of guns to one gun per person per month
9. Require re-licensing of all pistol permit owners
10. Require renewal of all pistol permits every five years
11. State issued pistol permits
12. Micro-stamping of all guns in New York State
13. Require licensing of all gun ammo dealers
14. Mandatory locking of guns at home
15. Fee for licensing, registering weapons
I'm a NYer and pro-RKBA Nyers are doing alot to fight this but it is, frankly, a nearly impossible task. The best hope is a legal assault to beat it back. The essence of the problem for you upstaters is that you are attached to the communist hivemind downstate here where I live. You will have declining prosperity and decreasing liberty until the end of your days unless you separate from NYC and environs.
Actually voting them out of office would be great.political action. We would have to show the politicians a voting population greater then the population who favors the laws we oppose
I know Pic and Go NYG have responded yes, but Bobny, have you signed Kathy Marciones petition? Joined NYSRPA? contacted Jim ?? In Buffalo area who is also looking at class action lawsuit? Let your reps know what you think of this new law ( I am lucky, both Kathy and Steve McLaughlin are my reps, and yes they know how I feel on this issue.)?
Are you willing to actively campaign against those who voted for this, and the bully Cuomo?
Moving will be an absolute last resort for me. But I not sitting back and just waiting on this either.
If you are on FB, we have a good amount of info on a group called Keep Your Second Amendment Rights. Check it out. Give you username here to the admins to join if you wish
The laws suck. We need to fight these bullies who are supposed to represent us.
well so far last saturday i went to the protest at the capital but it was pretty mellow which showed its a done deal. this saturday there is a gun show at the state concourse which sounds great except the governer gets the proceds from it & the $ to park so i might skip it for those reasons, plus the saturday before we went to the saratoga show which had the biggest turnout since they started it. i did sign kathy marchones list & had any one i no sign it. well if it gets to bad i have a florida permitt so i guess i can always leave. i still have 3 years for retirment so i will still have to keep one house in the state at least my wife is on board if we go...
Good. I was at the Capitol Sat too. A very good turn out actually.
3 years then out if you need, good for you. I have a few more years till any chance of retirement, so if I leave items a good job first. But I will fight this bully SOB first.


text: Just to preface I am not a commercial beekeeper . . . yet! I just found one of my hives seems to have AFB. What I want to know is how the 'real' beekeepers TRUTHFULLY control AFB. Do you burn? Treat with antibiotics? If you treat with antibiotics do you do it as a prophylactic or do you do it after symptoms occur? What if anything else?

Health Information
Cardiac Arrhythmia (Holistic)Skip to the navigation
About This Condition
Cut the caffeine
Reduce the frequency of some arrhythmias by cutting back on coffee and other caffeinated products
Mix in some magnesium
Under a doctor's supervision, take daily supplements containing 350 to 400 mg of this essential mineral for fewer episodes
Check out potassium
Ask your doctor if 1,000 mg a day of this essential mineral may help treat your arrhythmia
Don't forget the fish oil
Take capsules containing 2.4 grams of heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids every day to reduce the frequency of irregular heartbeats
See a heart-health expert
Visit a healthcare professional knowledgeable in cardiology to get a thorough evaluation, and for supervision when using natural substances to treat cardiac arrhythmia
About This Condition
Cardiac arrhythmia is a term that denotes a disturbance of the heart rhythm.
Cardiac arrhythmias can range in severity from entirely benign to immediately life-threatening. If arrhythmia is suspected, a doctor should be consulted for confirmation. In addition, the use of natural substances for arrhythmia should always be supervised by a doctor.
Most arrhythmia does not result in symptoms, but people may experience anxiety , lightheadedness, dizziness, fainting, unusual awareness of the heartbeat, and sensations of fluttering or pounding in the chest.
Eating Right
The right diet is the key to managing many diseases and to improving general quality of life. For this condition, scientific research has found benefit in the following healthy eating tips.
|Cut the caffeine
Drinking too much caffeine has been associated with arrhythmia in some studies, some healthy people are susceptible to as little as one cup of coffee.
Excessive caffeine consumption has been associated with arrhythmia in human studies. Although most people do not experience arrhythmia as a result of caffeine consumption,1 some healthy people appear to be susceptible to as little as one cup of coffee.2
|Uncover your allergies
Allergic reactions to foods and environmental chemicals have been reported to trigger certain arrhythmias. Ask your doctor for help identifying these sensitivities.
Allergic reactions to foods and environmental chemicals have been reported to trigger arrhythmias.3 Consultation with a physician may help to pinpoint these sensitivities.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by some in the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.
3 Stars Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
2 Stars Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
1 Star For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
3 Stars
384 mg daily
Supplementing with magnesium may help reduce the number of arrhythmic episodes.
A double-blind trial investigated the effect of oral magnesium supplementation on arrhythmic episodes in people with congestive heart failure . Those people taking 3.2 grams per day of magnesium chloride (equivalent to 384 mg per day of elemental magnesium) had between 23% and 52% fewer occurrences of specific types of arrhythmia during the six-week study, compared with those taking placebo.4 Lower serum concentrations of magnesium were found to be associated with a higher incidence of arrhythmia in a large population study.5 The anti-arrhythmic properties of magnesium appear to be specific. For example, magnesium is clearly able to prevent a drug-induced arrhythmia called torsade de pointes,6 but it does not appear to prevent atrial fibrillation.7 A doctor should supervise any use of magnesium for cardiac arrhythmia.
2 Stars
Fish Oil
Do not take, or take only with a doctor's supervision, if there is a history of sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation
Fish oil has been shown to reduce the frequency of abnormal heartbeats in some trials.
In a double-blind trial, people with a type of arrhythmia known as ventricular premature complexes were supplemented for 16 weeks with either 15 ml (1 tbsp) per day of fish oil or a similar amount of safflower oil as placebo. Patients taking the fish oil had a significantly reduced frequency of abnormal heartbeats compared with those receiving placebo, and 44% of those receiving fish oil experienced at least a 70% reduction in the frequency of abnormal beats.8 In a separate study, however, men given 20 ml (4 tsp) of cod liver oil per day for six weeks, beginning one week after a heart attack , had the same frequency of irregular heart beats as did men given no supplemental oil.9 In a double-blind study, people who had a history of certain potentially life-threatening arrhythmias-sustained ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation-had an increase in the recurrence rate of these arrhythmias when they took fish oil.10 A similar study found no adverse effect of fish oil supplements in people with these serious arrhythmias.11 Because of these conflicting findings, people with a history of either of these arrhythmias should consult a doctor before taking fish oil.
2 Stars
1,000 mg daily under medical supervision
In one study, people taking hydrochlorothiazide for high blood pressure saw a significant reduction in arrhythmias when they supplemented with potassium.
Patients taking hydrochlorothiazide for high blood pressure had a significant reduction in arrhythmias when supplemented with 1 gram twice per day of potassium hydrochloride (supplying 1040 mg per day of elemental potassium ). Those results were not improved by adding 500 mg twice per day of magnesium hydroxide (supplying 500 mg per day of elemental magnesium) to the potassium.12 Low serum concentrations of potassium were found to be associated with a higher incidence of arrhythmia in a large population study.13
1 Star
Refer to label instructions
Supplementing with copper may reduce the frequency of abnormal heartbeats.
Three cases have been reported in which ventricular premature beats disappeared after supplementation with copper (4 mg per day in the two cases for which amounts were reported).14 In one of these people, supplementing with zinc made the arrhythmia worse, confirming previous observations that excessive zinc intake may lead to copper deficiency,15 which in turn may lead to arrhythmia.
1 Star
Refer to label instructions
An active constituent in corydalis, dl-tetrahydropalmatine, may have an anti-arrhythmic effect on the heart.
An active constituent in corydalis , dl-tetrahydropalmatine (dl-THP), may exert an anti-arrhythmic action on the heart. This action was observed in a preliminary trial with 33 patients suffering from a specific type of arrhythmia called supraventricular premature beat or SVPB.16 Each patient took 300 to 600 mg of dl-THP per day in tablet form, and the dl-THP was found to be significantly more effective than placebo in reducing arrhythmia.
1 Star
Refer to label instructions
Hawthorn has been used traditionally to reduce the frequency of arrhythmias.
An animal study showed that an extract of hawthorn significantly reduced the number of experimentally induced arrhythmias.17 Although the use of hawthorn for arrhythmia in humans has not been studied scientifically, it traditionally has been used for this purpose.18
1 Star
Refer to label instructions
Supplementing with selenium may improve many arrhythmias.
Gross deficiency of dietary selenium may cause many heart problems, including arrhythmia. Based on this finding, one author has theorized that correction of low selenium status may improve many arrhythmias, even in the absence of overt deficiency symptoms.19 Controlled research is needed to evaluate this possibility.
1 Star
Vitamin D
Refer to label instructions
One case report described relief from a type of arrhythmia after supplementing with vitamin D.
One case of long-standing sick-sinus syndrome (another type of arrhythmia) was reported to resolve upon supplementation with 800 IU per day of vitamin D prescribed for an unrelated condition. However, it was not clear from that report whether the improvement was due to the vitamin D.20 More research is needed.

Some musicians are revered, reviewed and written about, but rather less listened to. Put Scott Walker at the top of that list. This is only his fourth album in the past three decades and their abstruse lyrics, electronic effects and often declamatory tone have nothing in common with his acclaimed ballad style in the Walker Brothers and on a series of orchestrated solo albums in the 60s.
This dramatic collection - Walker speak-singing like he's in some demented opera - opens with an urgent electrobeat and works around the refrain "while plucking feathers from a swan song" in See You Don't Bump His Head, Corps de Blah starts as a quivering a cappella piece ("I'm bumping into leghorns in the darkness") with what sounds like a dog barking and flatulence later on, and the centrepiece is a 21-minute track entitled SDSS14+13B (Zercon, A Flagpole Sitter).
The final song The Day the Conducator Died is something to do with Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceausescu. Lyrically it's almost unfathomable ("To play fugues on Jove's spam castanets"?) although it's hard to tear yourself away from its sense of desperation and despair - unless you just have to flee.
You won't have heard anything like it this year. Or in any year.
Stars: 3.5/5
Verdict: More Walker melodrama from the therapist's couch

Memorial service held for MAFFS killed in C-130
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - The 145th Airlift Wing, North Carolina Air National Guard, held a private memorial service on Tuesday morning for the four Airmen killed in the crash of a Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System (MAFFS) equipped C-130.
Lt. Col. Paul K. Mikeal , Maj. Joseph M. McCormick, Maj. Ryan S. David and Senior Master Sgt. Robert S. Cannon, all from the 145th Airlift Wing in Charlotte, N.C., were killed when their C-130 crashed July 1 while battling the White Draw Fire in South Dakota. Two other crewmembers survived the crash and remain hospitalized.
The U.S. Departments of the Interior and Agriculture is honoring the four North Carolina-based MAFFS 7 crewmembers killed during wildfire fighting operations July 1 by flying flags at half-staff today at all DoI and DoA locations, including all national parks and national forests.
The cause of the crash is still under investigation.
In honor of their sacrifice, DoI and DoA have ordered their agencies, including the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho, to fly their U.S. and department flags at half-staff.
The service was open only to the families of the fallen Airmen, unit members and invited guests. KRDO NewsChannel 13 was granted video of the service. Watch the embedded video for more information.

Expert Advice
What should you look for in women's golf apparel? Try soft, breathable pieces and smooth textures for maximum comfort on the golf course. These fabrics move with you on every hole, ensuring a full range of motion as you flex, swing and lean. Four-way stretch fabrication allows you the complete mobility you need to play at your best.
Pieces-like twill pants, knit polos and skirts, keep you cool under the sun during a summer round. Choose apparel designed with moisture-wicking technology, which uses microfibers to lift perspiration away from your skin and transport it to the surface of your garment, where it evaporates.
Take coverage from the sun's harmful rays with women's golf apparel with built-in UV ray blocking fabrication. These materials help absorb or deflect radiation from the sun.
On the course, layering can extend your season and help pull together your look. Try sleek golf jackets, sweaters and pullovers paired with a polo or sleeveless blouse. Golf skorts, capris and lightweight pants help transition your game from fall to summer.
Best of all, when it comes to your golf game, you never have to sacrifice performance for style. Mix, match and layer a variety of patterns, prints and colors for an on-course look that's totally you. Experiment with vivid hues, graphics, color-contrast details and feminine cuts.
Pair your golf clothing with a pair of women's golf shoes-and start the season off in style.

How would Mountain View fare in an earthquake
Original post made by Resident, Whisman Station, on May 27, 2008
Looking at fault maps, it seems that Mountain View lies between the San Andreas and the Hayward fault. Are we far enough away from these faults to avert a major catastrophe? Which fault poses the greater danger to Mountain View? How about other natural disasters? Wildfires? Tsunamis? Could a rogue wave come down the bay and flood the city?

Prices of dairy products surged to the highest since June 2011 in Fonterra's latest GlobalDairyTrade auction with the prospect of New Zealand production curtailed by drought in the North Island.
The GDT-TWI Price Index rose 10.4 per cent compared to the last sale two weeks ago, the biggest increase since the June 5, 2012, sale and the sixth straight gain. The average winning price rose to US$4,216 a metric tonne, the highest in almost two years. Whole milk powder, the biggest product by volume, led the advance, soaring 18 per cent to US$4,298 a tonne.
See more details of the overnight auction here.
Economists are already assessing the impact of drought on New Zealand's economic growth, which is likely to trim the amount of milk powder that Fonterra, the world's biggest dairy exporter, can ship overseas. The company kept its forecast farmgate milk payout unchanged last month, in in the face of rising prices.
Westpac economist Nathan Penny issued research this morning, saying the Fonterra farmer payout for the current season would likely be increased from $5.90-$6 per kilo of milksolids to $6 - $6.10 per kilo.
The bank has also lifted its 2013/2014 payout forecast by 20c to $6.40.
"This forecast offers some respite this season as farmers struggle with drought conditions, but for many this increase will not be enough offset falling milk production volumes. Our upgrade to the 2013/14 payout forecast hints at recovering farm incomes next season, particularly if growing conditions return to normal over the winter months," said Penny.
"Our forecast upgrade reflects the fact that dairy commodity prices have spiked higher as New Zealand supply has tightened rapidly, owing to drought conditions in key dairy-producing regions.
GlobalDairyTrade prices have risen 54pc on a trade-weighted basis since the May 2012 trough in dairy prices. Over the same period the NZD has increased by around 7pc, only partially offsetting the world dairy price gains. "
Penny said that drought conditions meant the world dairy prices were likely to drive higher, with the March 2011 record under threat.
"While we see this development as temporary, the longer-term outlook remains positive with the world economy set to improve over 2013 and growth centred in the hungry part of the world (eg. China). "
"These factors will underpin world dairy prices for the 2013/14 season, but we expect a high exchange rate to cap the payout at around $6.40. With world growth improving further and a depreciating dollar over the 2014/15 season, we expect the payout to increase to $6.70."
The total volume of dairy products sold at the latest auction was 21,922 tonnes, down from 33,467 tonnes a fortnight ago.
The price of anhydrous milk fat rose 4.9 per cent to US$3,820 a tonne and butter milk powder rose 14.3 per cent to US$4,200 a tonne. Butter rose 9.6 per cent to US$4,081 a tonne and cheddar gained 8.3 per cent to US$3,827 a tonne.
Lactose wasn't offered. Milk protein concentrate climbed 11 per cent to US$6,749 a tonne. Rennet casein rose 1.2 per cent to US$8,930 a tonne and skim milk powder rose 4.6 per cent to US$3,759 a tonne.
There were 105 winning bidders over 16 rounds. There were 200 participating bidders out of a total number of qualified bidders of 782.

2 Performance Artists Request & Receive Weeded Books from Library for Art Installation Honoring The Book
JERSEY CITY, NJ April 4, 2012 – Performance artists Ruben Millares and Antonia Wright recently came to the Main Library in Jersey City to abscond with 14 boxes of books that were weeded from the library branches' collections. The use for the books can raise an educated eyebrow…
They came in search of books for their art installation at the Fountain Art Fair, which was held in mid-March in New York City. From Miami, both artists have been doing this installation of books as a "homage to the book, a celebration" and a commentary on how reading in libraries has gone digital.
The actual installation is a wall of books, which create a chance for people to view the titles, pick up the books – even walk away with a book – while demonstrating an appreciation of The Book.
Once done, what do they do with the books? "We either use them for another performance," said Antonia Wright. "Store, sell them, or re-create the installation, as they are cite-specific," added Ruben Millares.
The two links below illustrate the installation. The first is the artists' statement, submitted on Antonia Wright's website. The second is a video of the performance.
For the latest on programs, events, and special announcements please follow the Library on Facebook or Twitter at Jersey City Free Public Library. Visit us on the web at www.jclibrary.org. As of April 3, 2012, the Jersey City Free Public Library has 211,641 valid card members.

Your Deodorants Look Weird…
We'll be the first to admit that our deodorants might be a bit different from the ones you are accustomed to. First of all, they lack packaging (like most of our products) but that also means they lack preservatives which is how we prefer them.
They are not anti-perspirants, which means we leave out the aluminium salts; instead they are made up of super-absorbent powders to keep you dry and essential oils to knock out odour-causing bacteria.
They keep you smelling cool even when things get hot. So yes, they may be a little different, but in our opinion they are much, much better.

Thorbecke Bros Notch Kit - Frame Aid
2nd Gen Blazer Notch
We recently dropped our two-door '00 Blazer with a Belltech 4/5 drop kit, and the bottoming out just plain sucked. Notching the frame should have been done the same day the drop kit was installed, but being in a rush, we slammed it and started cruising it immediately. Luckily the Thorbecke Bros notch kit is straight forward enough to install in an afternoon.
Follow along the few steps on this page and add 2¼ more inches of axle travel today! Bottom out less. Experience less banging. Save yourself major headaches and Tourette Syndrome-like swearing fits.
Tip: when ordering, select the "crooked frame" if your Blazer/Jimmy is a two-door model. '95-plus four-door models require the "straight frame" notch.
