Very good located, cosy appartment and Vladimkr is a very friendly and reliable person. I would come again!
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
Very nicely appointed, very-very clean. Convenient by car or subway.
Friendly and accommodating owner/manager.
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!
Everything fine
Hello, great apartment, close to city center. All what you need and does not want to carry long way from home is there: hair dryer, iron, ironing table, even sth to clean your shoes. I strongly recommend. Dominika
When we arrived at Moscow airoport, Vladimir met us by his comfortable minibus.
The flat was comfortable, we had all we needed and the most important everything was close to us: the OLD ARBAT (main street), Red Square, Supermarkets.
We enjoyed our stay at Vladimir´' splace. As a person he is very pleasant and helpful. We recommend himand his appartment to everyone!
Best regards,
Zina Jensen-Maar,
the flat is a jewel. near metro station and supermarket in ten minutes you can really reach the very center of Moscow. Vladimir is a very good homeowner. if you need information you can ask him without problem.

The epitome of dick. One who plays Neopets and acts like he rules the world because he has some super expensive item that he obtained unfairly. He has a posse of girls, most of whom became his friend AFTER he obtained this rare item (most of whom are also ugly/bitches). If you ever come across a Marquardt or Monophyte on Neopets, well...let's just say that you should run far, far away. He will only make you do degrading things. Don't give him the attention he so desires.
Marquardt: No example can adequately convey how much of an ugly dick this kind of person really is.
All you have to do is read the last name to understand that he is a smelly fart.

For me, the tops of buildings have killed me more than players and zombies combined
For me, the tops of buildings have killed me more than players and zombies combined
Story time!
So I'm going to play with 2 other friends on the NZ server (because it was daytime there) and I spawn a few towns to the west of Cherno (Don't remember their names). One friend is pretty far inland and the other spawns east of Elektro, so we decide to meetup east of Cherno.
I head west, meet 3 different isolated people who confirm we are both friendly and then run off to do god knows what (probably die). Besides that I get into Cherno without much hassle. I pick up a revolver in that convenience store in the west, along with some food and other useful stuff. Hit the church and find some other loot (nothing of note iirc). Keep heading west and find some other guy, we say hi and part ways.
I get to the very far east outskirts of Cherno (Past the most eastern cargo crane thing) and by this time my friends have met up and one can see me through his hunting rifle scope. He tells me that there's two guys running around behind me so I keep crawling towards where they are. One of the dudes dies or something and as I'm crawling across the road the other one runs up and fires a shot into me with what I assume was his Makarov. Fortunately for me one single zombie hears him, runs up, and hits him once, knocking him out.
I take this opportunity to crawl into some bushes and over the crest of a small hill, where I can still see him using 3rd person. My fight or flight response is running full force now (irl my heart's bmp was probably like 200) and I see him wake up and shoot the zombie. I suppose he assumed I either died or ran off so he begins to bandage himself. I take this as my chance, crawl over the hill, and shoot him in the face before he even knows what's happening. (He later called me a "cunt pker" in side channel, not sure what his deal was)
After I fix myself up (I was down to like ~5k blood at this point) I go over to see what sort of equipment he has. I score a winchester, 6 or 7 mags of ammo for it, a czech backpack full of medical supplies (including 2 bloodpacks!!!) and food/drinks. After taking all I could I GTFO and crawl to where my friends are. We meetup, they give me some blood (one of the bloodpacks disappears for whatever reason) and we head north to get away from the coast.
We get to one of the smaller inland towns and loot what we can, with only one zombie engagement where we killed maybe 5 or 6. We head north along a road towards another town and come upon a farmstead. We go investigate because there is an enter-able barn there, we kill all the zombies around and don't find much in the barn.
While we're in there we hear a guy ('Nick' apparently) firing his enfeild nearby and contact him via side-channel. He says he's friendly so we say that we're leaving the barn and he can have what he wants (there was a few weapons and some ammo in there). As we leave he shoots at us from an elevated position, killing me and one of my friends with two shots. My other friend runs off into the woods and then logs off.
Them's the breaks I suppose.
I was alive for some 14h? Then I just got sniped when I went up a lighthouse and searched with binoculars. Luckily the bandit who tried to loot my dead body went up and fell off the lighthouse and also died. I got back to the lighthouse, found his dead body and got back all my stuff.
I died because this game easily tosses you off the sides of buildings
Is anyone else failing to update? I overwrite the 1.5.1 files with 1.5.2 and every time I go to play a game it tells me I'm still running 1.5.1
Glad they have finally fixed the bandit problem and make vehicles a little more frequent.
But, the vehicles are broken for Bandits. Only one Bandit can be in it at a time. :\
Yeah, some of the NY servers and US ones are still running 1.5.1. Also is it me or are the server clocks all over the place now? EU ones had nighttime when the US ones do, and I saw US servers with daytime when the EU servers usually have daylight.
Man, gotta love when you're looting a building and someone spawns behind you and just shoots you in the back.
I think they need to reduce the zombies' attention span. I'd rather they be deadlier, but easier to shake. As is now you can be stuck with them for like an hour cause they run at the speed of a car, never tire, and catch up even if you get obstacles in the way.
Do you guys have any tricks to shake them once you get a bunch on your tail? I've tried running them into fences, etc, no dice. I've also tried running through a building to slow them down, then exit fast. I got a good amount of distance on them, couldn't even see them anymore, then they almost rubberbanded themselves after me like it was a racing game. Ran right up to me a few seconds later as I was sprinting.
So I'm told tents and cars are tied, but only on the server they were made on?
And do tents just die off in updates or do they go away if not used?
My goal in life is to live peacefully at Grozovy pass. Nobody will find me there.
Cars are destroyed.
Makes sense
Combined Operations is the 17th best selling game on Steam right now, just looking at the main store page. Interesting to see how much Arma 2 sales have picked up with the release (Or just sudden popularity) of DayZ..
So I'm thinking of taking over Berezino on NY2. I know the perfect place to hide a tent there.
Watch them fools comin' in his teritory
Should make it you can spawn on your tent or choose to spawn on your tent.
After reading that post about vehicles being added into the mod, just wanted to know how common they are? Are they half broken with barely any fuel and shit?
Found a boat in the middle of nowhere. Atleast it was driveable and had enough fuel to sail me to Berezino.
And then aquazombies.
Can't find a tent at all. I've even server hopped to 4 other servers and not a single one has a tent.
Just restarted the EU #1,#2,#3 to fix the difficulty
Now would be the perfect time to put Arma 2:CO on sale.
I'm heading off, I'll be on later though.
If anyone wants to actually do the Renegades thing, head to Berezino.
Also a tent would be very appreciated.
Oh I'd buy it instantly if it goes on sale and only because of DayZ.
i guess i'll post again cus I'm sitting here with my finger on check-out, will this work with steam ARMA 2?
does this game require a good computer to run because i'm getting mixed answers over here
some saying only 6trillion$ alienware's will run it. to an unplugged toaster running on max.


text: Inside/Out was an installation by conceptual artists Margo Mensing and Susie Brandt that allowed visitors to "access" Hyde House while it was closed for interior and exterior restoration. The artists spent two years shadowing docent tours of Hyde House, the historic home of Museum founders Louis and Charlotte Hyde, to understand how this house and its contents impact the lives of people in the community, and, in turn, how these community members influence the collection. The artists consider the docent as a central figure in shaping the visitors' experience. A major component of this exhibition was a large screen video production featuring a sequence of five docents each discussing the same four objects in Hyde House with a small group of visitors. The impact of the collection on the community was addressed through an installation of photographs and text. The artists documented with photos the ways in which members of the "Hyde" community incorporated reproductions of works from the collection they purchased through the Museum gift shop into their own homes.

A 3D-printed jumbo jet?
Designer Bastian Schaefer shows off a speculative design for the future of jet planes, with a skeleton inspired by strong, flexible, natural forms and by the needs of the world's, ahem, growing population. Imagine an airplane that's full of light and space — and built up from generative parts in a 3D printer.

Reviews of this property
To arrive at an unknown place and to feel at home in an instant - that is possible thanks to the incredibly friendly, welcoming and trusting host Christine, who felt like a friend after only three days.
Christine, thank you so much for your outstanding hospitality, for sharing your wonderful home with travellers, for your patience talking in French to us, for the evenings with wine, cheese, cake & home made majonaise, for your good advices, for the laughter, the exciting conversations, the beautiful room, the good sleep... and for so much more.
I hope we meet again soon.
This place was nothing short INCREDIBLE. First of all, we felt like old friends/family staying with her, we didn't feel like we were just paying for a room upstairs. Her house is very well decorated and SO CLEAN, each nook and cranny is spotless. There was plenty of space, everywhere, even the front yard is beautiful and charming. The bathroom was spacious and very updated with great views. The bed/bedroom was a great size and very comfortable, the room had great storage and she even had a little vanity area to write/get ready. Chris was extremely personable, and the first night we stayed she dropped us off at a restaurant she recommended. Her house is WELL WORTH IT and if you stay in the Paris area, do yourself a favor and stay. It's located conveniently down the street from a tube station and has restaurants a french bakery down the road. I can't say enough about how wonderful of a person Chris is, we had great conversation and laughs, we felt so sad to go! We will definitely go back and stay!
Christine has a wonderful house in a nice and quiet area that is still close to the centre of Paris. The room and the bathroom are very beautiful and clean.
Christine is a very sweet person and a great host. She gives you advise and is always there for a nice talk.
We really enjoyed our stay at her place and can totally recommend it!
I am so happy that I chose this place for our weekend in Paris! Christine was unbelievable helpfull, frank and absolutly friendly! We were so nervous to get our bus back to Germany early enough so she brought us through the half town with her car to get to the bus! And although we don't speak French it was so nice, interesting and easy to communicate with her, her english is very good. Also the room and the bathroom were so cute, even better than on the fotos! It was clean, large and so comfortable with a wooden floor, a large soft bed and flowers ahead the windows. We didn't want to leave it!
The house was also just 5-10 minutes to walk away from the next metro-station. So this room and Christine made our great holiday complete! Thanks!
Christine was such great hostess. She made our stay somewhat lovely, warm and cozy that definitely made me want to return. I sure recommend her place, even being a bit far from Paris (about 10min), we were able to figure out the metro and train to get around, but perhaps the best thing about returning "home" is that the house and its furniture were so organized and clean that make me feel coming "home".
My stay at Christine was perfect. I was alone but felt save in her house and the surroundings. A beautiful house, a fantastic room and bed, I really felt at home in a way. We talked a lot, but I felt free to do my own thing, when I wanted......
If I come back to Paris I certainly will choose this place again. Its nearby the metro, nearby shops, easy to reach by car and a very quiet neighbourhoud....
Christine has a warm hart and helps you in any whay nesceserry......
Thanx Christine, it was just what I needed, much better than an inpersonal hotel............
The room was very nice and clean. Christine is a very lovely lady who tries to make your stay as comfortable as possible.
Paris is only 10 minutes by Subway. We sure will go back. Thank you Christine.
Dear Christine
We enjoyed our visit to Paris. It was even better then I expected. One of the reasons was your hospatillity and your house.
Beside that your house is was all very clean, the studentes were nice and friendly, you all speak English, you give good advise about the trains, metro, diner and highlights.
We hope to come back once.
Douwe and Anita
We felt really comfortable at Christines place. She is a lovely person. The house is not far away, only one station from Gare du Lyon. I would always stay at Christines place again. Thank you very much Christine. All the best Julia
Die Unterkunft bei Christine ist absolut empfehlenswert! Sie ist eine tolle Gastgeberin, die sich um alle Fragen und Wünsche der Gäste kümmert. Der Urlaub bei ihr war ein unvergessliches Erlebnis! Das Haus und das Grundstück sind wunderschön. Das Zimmer, in dem die Gäste unterkommen ist stilvoll eingerichtet und sehr sauber.
Auch das Bad ist sauber und schön eingerichtet.
Die Lage des Hauses ist zwar nicht im Zentrum von Paris, aber eine Zuganbindung 5 Minuten vom Haus entfernt bringt euch in 10-15 Minuten mitten in die Stadt. Christine brachte uns sogar zum Zug und half uns mit den Tickets.
In ruhiger und angenehmer Nachbarschaft braucht man sich auch keine Sorgen um sein Auto beispielsweise machen.
Wir waren sehr zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder!
Staying with Christine is absolutely recommendable! She's a great hostess who takes care of the guests questions and requests. The holiday with her was an unforgettable experience! The house and garden are beautiful. The guest-room is stylishly decorated and very clean.
The bathroom is clean as well and really large.
Although the location of the house is not in the center of Paris, there is no problem to get to the city centre. There's a train station 5 minutes away from the house. You can get to the city centre in 10-15 minutes. Christine even took us to the train station and helped us with the tickets.
The house is located in a quiet and pleasant neighborhood. So you don't have to worry about your car or coming home late at night, for example.
We were very pleased and would definitely come back!

GONZALES (AP) — A state judge has found former LSU running back Charles Scott not guilty in a sexual battery case.
The Advocate reported Scott, 24, was booked into the Ascension Parish Jail in November 2011 after allegedly raping an 18-year-old woman at his Prairieville home.
He was arraigned later on a charge of sexual battery, a lesser offense than the crime of simple rape he originally was accused of committing. In February 2012, Scott entered a plea of not guilty.
The case was heard Tuesday by state District Judge Jessie LeBlanc.
The trial originally was scheduled to begin last month, but it was postponed while the prosecution tried to track down a key witness, officials said.
If convicted, Scott could have faced up to 10 years in prison.
Scott made an immediate impact at LSU, rushing for five touchdowns as a freshman and then five more as a sophomore while serving as a key backup to Jacob Hester on the Tigers' 2007 national title team.
Scott started his final two seasons at LSU, the best of them his junior season when he rushed for 1,174 yards and a Southeastern Conference-leading 18 touchdowns.
Scott still ranks seventh on LSU's career rushing list with 2,317 yards, fourth in career touchdowns with 32 and his 5.46 yards-per-carry average is tops in school history. Scott's 2008 season ranks him fifth on the all-time yardage list and second on the single-season rushing touchdowns list.
He was picked in the sixth round of the 2010 NFL draft by the Philadelphia Eagles and spent parts of two seasons on the practice squads of the Eagles, Arizona Cardinals and New York Giants.


text: The Missouri Compromise of 1820, which admitted Missouri as a slave state and Maine as a free state, temporarily solved the divisive issue of slavery's spread to the western territories. The issue continued, however, to flare up in Congress until the Civil War. In 1850, Senator Henry Clay sought another compromise to preserve the Union and avoid war. The most famous debate in the history of the Senate ensued between Senators John C. Calhoun and Daniel Webster over Clay's proposals. It was the last debate among these three giants of the Senate.

i think any plan that relies on T2 is foolish..
i think any plan that relies on T2 is foolish..
Playing with heart is one thing, playing with intelligence is another. If you really look at some of websters issues is because rolle was supposed to be over the top at times and he was no where to be found. Either way both is over valued. I would have gotten rid of them before Bradshaw and canty.
The worst part is that he is seen as a vocal leader of our defense. A leader shouldn't be liability on the field.
Rolle has been JR's worst FA signing.
Rolle isn't getting cut this year simply because we don't get much cap relief from cutting him due to the restructures he did. He's been an OK player, but he's also played in multiple roles which has value in itself. After next season will likely be when he gets released, cutting him now only saves about 1mil in cap space with like 8mil in dead space, cutting him next season saves like 8mil in cap space.
All Hail The New York Giants!!

Worth A Thousand Words: The Art of Illustration from The Hyde Collection
Now through February 19, 2012:
This exhibition highlights some of the most important illustrated volumes intended for adult readers in the Hyde's collection.
The earliest work in the exhibition is the famed Nuremberg Chronicle or Liber Cronicarum of 1493. This encyclopedia of world history and geography of the late-fifteenth century was the most ambitious printed work of its type at that date. With more than 1,800 hand-colored woodblock prints and text produced using cast-metal type its publication was still quite revolutionary as the introduction of mass-produced movable type by Johannes Gutenberg (ca. 1398 – 1468) had only occurred in 1439 when his famous Bible was produced using this technology.
Others books to be featured from the permanent collection include the work of American French and British artists. Felix Octavius Carr Darley (1821-1888) and Elihu Vedder (1836-1923) are two of the most prominent American artists/illustrators. Darley was chosen by the American Art Union to create the plates for a special edition of Washington Irving's stories Rip van Winkle and Sleepy Hollow in 1848-49 and Vedder produced remarkable drawings for Edward Fitzgerald's 1884 translation of The Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám. Britain's foremost illustrators are represented in the exhibition by George Cruikshank (1792-1878), one of Charles Dickens' best known collaborators; Arthur Rackham (1867-1939), whose classic images of fairies and goblins made him a perfect choice to capture J. M. Barries's Peter Pan; and J.M.W. Turner (1775-1851) whose watercolors were chosen to be illustrated in an 1835 edition of Milton's Paradise Lost. The French artist and explorer Jacques-Gerard Milbert's Itinéraire Pittoresque du Fleuve Hudson of 1827 illustrates New York's landmark waterway, including views of Glens Falls, Lake George, Albany and Fort Edward (then called Sandy Hill) in a large format volume of handsomely lithographed plates.
Detail: Michael Wolgemut, German, 1434/37-1519 or Wilhelm Pleydenwurff, German, ca. 1460- ca. 1494 (artists), Dr. Hartmann Schedel, German, 1440-1514 (author), Building Noah's Ark from The Nuremberg Chronicle, 1493, woodcut, hand-colored, 18 3/8 x 12 1/4 in., The Hyde Collection, Glens Falls, New York, 1971.110, Bequest of Charlotte Pruyn Hyde

Hi All,
This is my first year keeping bee's (located in central New Hampshire) and we started off with two hives of Italians. One hive doing great and one hive seeming to be a little slower.
My questions and the advice I'm seeking is about the one doing "great."
I've been going into the two hives each Saturday or Sunday to inspect and see what each hive is doing. This past Wednesday 06/26 I went into the hives since I had a day off from work and I added two top bars (to the hive doing great) since they were filling each bar out nicely. I looked at each bar (in the strong hive; about 12 in all) and there were no swarm cells. Fast forward to today 06/30 and I have about 10+ capped swarm cells in my strong hive.
I've inspected the hive the best I can and haven't located the queen, but my guess is she's left since I was only able to spot larve on one frame that didn't have the appearance of being drone comb. I could be wrong here. Also, I'm not sure how much this matters, but the hive doesn't look like it's lost any bees. Compared to our weaker colony, it has a very high population. Could the queen of left by herself? Or could she have left with only a few thousand other bees?
My questions are how to go about dealing with the 10+ capped cells? Would it be smart to split the hive? I have two nuc boxes and it doesn't look like I've lost any bees but the thing I'd hate is to watch half a dozen after swarms take place and be left back at the starting gate (which wouldn't be terrible since they've already drawn lots of comb).
Would putting 2-3 frames in a nuc box with 2-4 capped queen cells be worth trying inorder to prevent the hive from completely swarming?
Thanks in advance for any and all advice!

Full Year 2012 - Nutrition
The School Day Just Got Healthier!
By: Rachel K. Johnson, PhD, MPH, RD, Bickford Professor of Nutrition and Professor of Medicine at the University of Vermont and Member of the President's Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition's Science Board
This fall, school nutrition programs underwent major changes that improve the nutritional quality of school lunches nationwide. The media has been filled with stories about the new menus, which feature more whole grains, fruits, and vegetables in items such as sweet potato fries, whole-wheat tortillas and black bean and corn salsa.
Healthy Mothers, Healthy Babies
By: Jim Pivarnik, Ph.D., President's Council on Fitness, Sports & Nutrition Science Board member
Having studied physical activity during pregnancy for over 25 years, I am amazed at how far we have progressed. When I began to research this area in the late 1980's, information was scarce, and recommendations were very conservative. This only makes sense, as "first do no harm" is even more important than normal when you are talking about protecting the maternal-fetal unit.
Fuel For Success: My Sports Plate

The new nutrition standards established by the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act at the US Department of Agriculture represent an important step in America's fight against childhood obesity and will help promote healthy eating habits for youth in our nation's schools. These standards promote a balanced diet of additional fruits and vegetables, low-fat dairy products, lean proteins, and whole grains, while eating less sugar, saturated fat, and sodium.
The Global Impact of Physical Inactivity
By: I-Min Lee, PCFSN Science Board Member
With the summer Olympic Games coming up, a group of 33 researchers from 16 countries worldwide felt this was a good opportunity to call the attention of the world to the public health problem of physical inactivity. Since physical activity has so many health benefits, it is concerning that only about one-third of the world's population is physically active.

France 1867 – 1944
The terrace
[La terrasse] c. 1892
oil on canvas
canvas 71.0 (h) x 90.0 (w) cm
Musée d'Orsay, Paris , Purchase 1992
© RMN (Musée d'Orsay) / Hervé Lewandowski
This painting is one of Roussel's decorative works from 1890–95. Although plans for the project have been lost, this painting has been tentatively tied to two other canvases intended to decorate a mayoral office—Conversation on the terrace c. 1892–931 and Meeting of the women c. 1893.2 Certain features appear in all three works—the autumnal leaves, the patterned dresses and the terrace itself. The terrace, however, has an aura of isolation, while the other two project an air of engagement and social interaction. Despite the women's close proximity, neither acknowledges the other.
The painting is set in the Tuileries Gardens, near Roussel's house at 346 Rue St Honoré. The architectural space is reminiscent of medieval walled gardens.3 During the Middle Ages, the hortus conclusus (enclosed garden) developed as an allegory for the Immaculate Conception. This gave rise to images of the Virgin and Child in protected gardens. The spiritual symbolism of this would have appealed to Roussel's Nabis sympathies. Roussel also alludes to the European landscape feature of the 'clearing', a refuge in the wilderness, often seen in the work of Puvis, whose theatrical mythical compositions, such as The sacred grove, beloved of the arts and Muses 1884,4 had a considerable influence on The terrace.
The garden setting also signals the influence of Eastern, especially Japanese, art. The rendering of the tree has a Japanese quality, especially in the dotted sprays of leaves. Set slightly to the right, its many trunks have been cropped by the top of the canvas. The full extent of its glory is hidden, although the spread of its ochre-coloured leaves along the upper panel suggests its enormity. The canvas is broken into three horizontal sections: the upper above the terrace balustrade; the middle down to the base of the wall; and the lower where the woman lies prostrate. This tripartite division is a common device found in East Asian scroll paintings, where a poet or sage is often placed in the lower foreground of a landscape.
Roussel composes a quite theatrical stage for the two female figures. The middle section reduces the perspective, resulting in minimal depth, keeping the viewer's eye on the foreground. The main figure is isolated by the strong arch to the left and the tree to the right, which defines two distinct spaces. Sliced by the edge of the canvas, the unobtrusive figure of the second woman, an intruder in the tranquil garden, is not immediately apparent.

text: Yes, I know, I know, I shouldn't use miticides or anything in my hive but I purchased some bees from a guy who told me to treat for varroa and I did, but to my horror MAQS seemed to kill my bees. I left the treatment in the hive for an hour and I went out to see how they were doing and there were a dozen or so bees on the bottom boards of my two hives dead or in the process of dying. When I first placed the strips in the hive, the bees quickly scurried away and were very upset, making a very noticeable displeased hum. I did everything the instructions advised me to do so I know that it wasn't operational error. I guess the point I'm trying to make is- this can't be normal. I've tried contacting the company but all I got was a "please leave a message" and so I tried calling my experienced beekeeping friend who sold me the bees. He wasn't home so I decided while I wait I might as well ask you all. I removed the strips as soon as I noticed this problem and I did a mite count a day prior- 13 varroa in one hive and 7 in another for a daily drop. I realize that this number may not have been high enough to treat but I couldn't find anything in my books or online which advised me as to what number was the treatment threshold. Could one of you please tell me this as well? Thanks.

The rise of the Internet and mobile technology has ushered church communications into a new digital era. As a result, churches have worked hard to create a flawless user experience, engaged social networks and search engine-optimized websites. We've come far, but I fear we've left people behind. Meet the "unplugged."
Despite popular belief, the unplugged are not just senior citizens, they are those in our pews who are not regularly visiting the web or aren't socially engaged online.
So how do we keep up our online strategies while still caring for the unplugged?
I imagine communication as if it were a hub and spokes on a bicycle. A bike has two wheels (online and offline) and is capable of moving us forward. Just like using Facebook, Twitter, email and other tools to bring everyone back to your website, you can use platform announcements, posters, people, etc., to point back to one central hub with all your communication pieces.
Try to designate an area in your church where all your announcements connect, such as an information or visitor center.
Remember to begin with the end in mind. Consider crafting content that can translate easily from Web to print. Each page on your website exists because it presents valuable information to the curious churchgoer. Display the information on printed cards, recycling website text and adapting as needed for an offline audience.
For dynamic online content that changes week to week such as calendars, blog posts, email campaigns and prayer requests, compile a stapled booklet of printed copies and make it available as a weekly or monthly touch point.
Also consider maintaining a simple event registration process that can be accessed offline. Every time you announce an event from the platform, there should be a universal event registration card in the seatback that can be completed and placed in the offering (or however it's collected).
Finally, never underestimate the power of the personal invite or time spent casting vision for involvement by a staff member. Communication is every staff person's job regardless of their title.
Don't reinvent the wheel. The unplugged typically represent a small percentage of your overall audience. Create a simple, sustainable way for them to have access to the same information that the plugged-in do.
In the end, it takes both wheels spinning together to make the bicycle move forward, and it takes an online and offline system to move the people in your organization toward the unique calling God has for them. —Jon Rodgers

At the midfield, twenty rows up at Reliant Stadium in Houston, Texas center stage! A place I've seen a number of games: the US Men's National Team, Mexico, Nigeria, The NCAA Final Four, and the Houston Texans, but tonight the grass has vanished replaced by mounds of dirt and littered with junk yard cars! The noise from the machines is deafening, the smell of fuel and the rage of the crowd has brought every young boys sandpit dreams to reality! Yes, this is MONSTER JAM! Adjusting to the bellowing screams of the engines my attention is drawn to the massive score board that's announcing the drivers for the next heat. The image at right appears and in a state of bewilderment I think to myself, how do I know this kid? Where have I coached him? (As we age, I suppose our recall isn't what it used to be but I've rarely forgotten a face I've coached in the last twenty years! Names maybe, but faces no!) And I know this man! It's Morgan Kane! Immediately, I text former Virginia Rush DOC Matt Dacey to confirm, as his son and I share a passion for these Monsters of Mayhem! Seconds, later Matt replies "You must be at Monster Jam!" Morgan's performance is remarkable, making the finals and then having in my humble opinion, the best "freestyle" run of the night, the 70,000 plus clearly agreed!
As late night turned into early morning, I'm still racing with emotional adrenaline! I was able to get in contact with Morgan via text, thanks Dacey! There were so many questions running through my head! What a gig! How did you land this? Training? The Rush? Here are Morgan's responses to a few of my questions:
When did you join the club?
- Had tryouts with Rush in 2006 and made Nike. In 07 + 08 played with the U18 Development squad under Jay Hoffman.
You lived in North Carolina and played for the Virginia Rush. How long was that drive?
- The commitment to play for a top level team was a drive... Hour and 15 minutes one way.
When did you start driving monster trucks for a living?
- I started my Monster Jam career in 2010, I was 20 years old. The youngest driver in the circuit at the time.
Driving these massive machines looks like it can take a toll on your body, are you doing any training?
- There really isn't any driver training that takes place, you just go and do it! Go Karting, motocross, mud racing, etc. is our training. Anything with wheels! Our team tries to work out and stay fit when we can, but the demanding work hours are enough to exhaust your body.
Did you learn anything playing with the Rush that you take with you today?
- Everyday is a life lesson. I was fortunate to be brought up through the Rush organization and shown the right path. The coaches, parents, and players were amazing and it gave me the opportunity to play college ball.
Are you still involved with the game now?
- Yes. Fall 2013, I was asked to be the Assistant for Currituck High's Men's Varsity squad. This allowed me to train with the boys and teach them the techniques I've learn from my time with Rush and at the Division 1 level.
- We do a lot of International shows with Monster Jam. Trying to make connections with the different cultures is hard, but the international language is soccer. If you mention soccer, or football, you have their attention. The performances are held in many of the football club stadiums and we are continuing to expand. For example, Dutch club, Vitesse, calls it's home the Gelredome. It's two huge shows for Monster Jam and we are trying to get a few media sessions together to showcase what we have to offer.
Anything you'd like to add?
- Rush has treated me like family and I want to reach out to invite any members of the Rush organization to visit Monster Jam at a city near you! Check out MonsterJam.com for events and tickets. Contact me on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram and follow my travels on Morgan-Kane.com!
Next time Monster Jam hits your city, go check out one of our own Morgan Kane! Check out his freestyle run in Houston below:

What is a literary classic and why are these classic works important to the world?
A literary classic is a work of the highest excellence that has something important to say about life and/or the human condition and says it with great artistry. A classic, through its enduring presence, has withstood the test of time and is not bound by time, place, or customs. It speaks to us today as forcefully as it spoke to people one hundred or more years ago, and as forcefully as it will speak to people of future generations. For this reason, a classic is said to have universality.
The epic poem Beowulf was written in Old English, also called Anglo-Saxon, the language spoken on the island of Great Britain after the arrival of the Angles and Saxons around 500 A.D. Their language survived and evolved until the Normans conquered the island in 1066.
The author of Beowulf is unknown, as is the date of its original composition—although some suppose that the saga was written sometime in the 7th or 8th century. Numerous recitations likely embellished the story and its characters with fantastic elements and exaggerated character traits, including godlike wisdom, intelligence, and nearly superhuman strength and abilities. The poem was most assuredly part of the previous oral tradition of story telling.
Beowulf exists in its present form through one manuscript only, which was penned in the 10th or early 11th century, and it barely escaped a fire in 1731 at the Ashburnham House in Westminster, England.
The first translation did not appear until 1815, and even at that date, it was written in Latin. Beowulf was not commonly included in English literature courses until the middle part of the 20th century, after acclaimed author and linguistics professor J.R.R. Tolkien published an essay titled "Beowulf: The Monsters and the Critics." This essay posited that Beowulf was a work of poetic literature, rather than merely an historic document.
This prose edition of Beowulf has combined and reconciled the 1892 prose translation by John Earle with the 1910 verse translation by Francis Gummere. These two translations differ considerably from one another textually, although the style and plot lines are similar. When the two translations varied a great deal, we consulted other texts to arrive at a satisfactory resolution of the discrepancies.
For example, Earle's prose version begins:
Gummere begins his verse translation:
Ethelings or athelings directly translates as sons of kings
The Prestwick House prose version combines the better parts of both texts, changing a few words and reading:
We have made every effort to ensure that the text is readable and still retains the essence of both translations.
When a segment of text is surrounded by brackets, it indicates that a section of the original manuscript has been badly damaged or corrupted, possibly due to the 1731 fire. Chapters XXIX and XXX fall into this category. Prestwick House has followed the Gummere translation, which eliminated both chapters. Other translators have approximated the meanings of some passages, but the actual wording is not at all certain.
"What ho! we have heard tell of the grandeur of the imperial
kings of the spear-bearing Danes in former days, how those
ethelings promoted bravery."
"LO, praise of the prowess of people-kings
of spear-armed Danes, in days long sped,
we have heard, and what honor the athelings
"Hark! We have heard of the glory of the kings of men among
the spear-bearing Danes in days of long ago. We have heard
how the princes won renown!"

1 - she's got political aspirations (training actively for District Administrative positions) - and being a 'doer' a founder, a problem solver, will be a great feather in her cap. And she wont even have to stick around to make it work! All she has to do is be there for the grand opening ceremonies!
2 - she's probably leaving Ohlone shortly (training actively for administrative positions) which means she comes out smelling like a rose by being a great 'team player' for the administration, and leaves the ridiculous mess of MI the Ohlone Way and demanding Nine, to some other poor incoming principal to battle out.
MI the Ohlone way - Susan Charles doesn't see the big problem. Seems like cultural insensitivity to me to fail to recognize the learning style that is culturally expected by many in this interest group. But all the better. Charles and Mah can duke it out for a year or two until Charles bolts. May they be very happy together.

Your last comment, tossed in as a parting shot, raises a legitimate question for discussion, but I fear that the way you raised it is just going to raise hackles instead of getting people who are hopeful--not certain--- about MI at Ohlone to share both their hopes and concerns. We won't know how the experiment will work out until it's tried.
Two decades ago, the structured approach of Hoover was perceived to be the default preference of Chinese families new to the community. Ohlone was seen as the antithesis to the traditional approach to learning, too risky for concerned parents to entrust their children's education to.
To be in a situation now where not just English-speaking but Mandarin-speaking families as well are eager to test the fit of the Ohlone Way and MI shows enormous progress in breaking down fixed perceptions of what makes for a good education.
Sounds as though you are certain it won't work. For my part, I don't know if it will--don't even know if it will be attempted. But I hope so.

Jerry, take a look at the demographics of Hoover a decade or so later. Looks like the early predictions weren't all smoke.

Wow, you've got things so wrong about Susan Charles. If she had aspirations to a higher level district position, she sure wouldn't be taking a leadership position of the middle management "union", and she sure woouldn't have been as out front about trying to find a compromise solution for MI. She would be trying to avoid controversy, and be below the radar screen.
Attacking her as being "political" because she takes a position that you don't like isn't anyway to solve the issue

Hoover does have the highest ratio of Asian background students--62% according to Great Schools.com--but the average among the other eleven public elementary schools is just over 20%.

Thank you for your insight into the demographics. It would also be interesting to find out how Hoover compares in volunteer hours from parents compared to other schools and in particular to Ohlone if this is something that you can track.

This attack on Susan Charles is absurd. The worst I've heard about her is that she has strong opinions and rules with an iron thumb, but she has a loyal fan club of parents and students whose lives she has touched. She is highly regarded and deservedly so.

20% Asian is similar demographically to our overall PAUSD community. That's the % range you'd expect to see in our PAUSD schools on average. But according to the numbers you provide, there absolutely is a statistically significantly concentration of asian at Hoover - 42% more!. Which is harmful to the diversity of our overall district - when you start concentrating ethnic populations in single schools, you rob the rest of the schools from the diversity we need and value. MI will do the same. Take a look at the attachment to the 1/30 board packet submitted by Grace Mah and Nico Janic that outlined the demographic makeup of the initial list of potential MI participatants if you doubt it.
The point is, our choice programs are NOT doing very well at 'breaking down perceptions', they are in fact holding up to the original concerns. There is no valid reason to expect anything different in MI's case.
And the point about Susan Charles [portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.]
You know she was not exactly straight forward in her description of the way she involved the Ohlone community in this decision either. She presented it the first time that the staff was told a day ~after~ the feasibillty study was presented to the board. Then this last time, she virtually glowed talking about how she got the staff together to discuss and gain their approval to go ahead and volunteer up Ohlone - in other words a collaborative process between her and the staff at Ohlone. Which one was it? We've heard on these message boards that the staff and the parents were blindsided.
And what about the lottery, which she has also refused to answer questions about. The best she said was 'so what, people get turned down from Stanford, does that mean we should shut down Stanford?" Excuse me, Stanford is a private school, no one pretends that Stanford is holding a blind lottery, and no one is suggesting to shut down Ohlone - we're saying 'WHERE'S THE BLIND LOTTERY?"
We have heard from folks on this board that say staff runs the lottery THEN she weeds folks out based on her pleasur/displeasure with their 'written applications'.
But she tells the board its a completely random lottery. Which one is it? And who granted her the authority to create a criteria selection process instead of a totally random lottery process? Why?

Parent, how would you like the data on parent volunteering? There's PTA volunteer hours, site council volunteer hours, districtwide organizations hours, fieldtrip and classroom volunteers, and various subgroups that are perhaps known at one school but not at another. Only the PTA tries to track volunteer hours, and some people don't report, and some report non-PTA hours in their PTA. No quality control there. Would you like the data reported on a per parent basis? On a per-student basis? On a specific type of volunteering? What about parents who volunteer cash in lieu of sweat? Why compare Hoover/Ohlone--diametically opposed philosophies about the role of parent?

Parent - you lose me when you ask for volunteer hours. The amount of 'volunteerism' required in PAUSD abolutely over the top ridiculous. I've been a parent in PAUSD for over 10 years now. I make it a practice specifically NOT to volunteer unless it something directly for my son's classroom. I'm making a statement - there are alot of non-working moms out there dreaming up ideas for volunteer things to do - like monthly luncheons for the teachers??? [Portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.] What other profession to expect your customers to bring you home made luncheon once a month? Its just dumb. I donate money. I don't have time, and I will not be judged as a second class citizen because I don't have time.
I am not in Ohlone or Hoover. And I don't believe in the least that this is a demographic question. The only demographic question that matter is whether our kids are learning to get along, and whether our ethnic populations are mixing and learning about each other. Cultural awareness. If you separate them, you lose that, and its dangerous for our schools, our kids, our community.

To attack Susan Charles in this way shows how little you know about this woman and her history in the district. Spend some time talking with people who have known her for years and her unwillingness just to play along with 25 Churchill.
Or just continue with the "new Palo Alto way" of debating issues - ad hominem attacks on good people.

I am so sorry for opening a can of worms on the volunteer hours issue. I was wondering in a very general sort of way, no hidden agenda. I definitely agree that the manner we expect parents to volunteer is over the top, but since it happens in some schools, I was interested to know if some schools get a great deal more and others barely any. I know, for instance, that Ohlone parents are expected to work in the farm as a condition of their entitlement to enter the lottery. I also know that in many schools, field trips are offered but due to lack of available drivers, the field trips have to be cancelled. I know that some field trips go on rented buses and others depend on family cars.
I am not condoning any of this. I was just wondering if there was any correlation between demographics and volunteerism. If this is a non question, then please do not go there.

Most parents don't work on the farm. In fact more people want to do some of the farm jobs than there are openings--such as putting the animals to bed.
re; Susan Charles. This has nothing to do with her advancing up the ranks--she's within a few years of retirement. I don't agree with her on MI, but there are some clear reasons why she's doing it.
She said at the last board meeting that she and her staff realized that either Ohlone or Escondido would be targeted for MI. By "welcoming" MI, she gets to control the program instead of being faced with a second school on Ohlone grounds. If she hadn't put out the welcome wagon, it would be harder for her to set timelines--notice that one of the egregious demands the PACE crowd isn't getting is that 2007 start date--or insist on the MI program being done as an Ohlone-style way.
What I can't figure out is whether she's counting on the MI parents fleeing in terror from Ohlone's no-homework ways making it relatively easy to move out the program after three years. At which point, Charles can expand the Ohlone program by a half strand (three modules) and everyone is grateful to get some playground back. And Charles may even have some sort of FLES program in place.
MI then ends up at Garland or maybe disgruntled PACErs will have opened a nice strict MI charter in Moutain View.

OholonePar - don't you find it weird that someone who is just a few years from retirement has just gone back to school to get an administrative credential? [Portion removed by Palo Alto Online staff.]
I think you're right on. She sees a 'win win' coming her way...
a. Be a "helper" for the staff/board on the MI issue by finding a way to make it easier to implement.
b. give up a temporary space in Ohlone volunatarily - but space that she' KNOWS will not be large enough to accomodate MI long term
c. Retain Control over the program in the short term
d. Move MI out of Ohlone after three years passes, and the program is overgrown for the space available at Ohlone. Ohlone then benefits from the expansion of Ohlone proper.

I suspect MI the "Ohlone Way" will make it much more attractive to those who would like their kids to learn another language, but would have feared the high structure/competition of the direct model approach so typical of any of the Asian countries.
So, I think that if we must have the program,it is a good way to do it.
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on May 9, 2007 at 12:58 pm
What would the point be for Charles to be a HS principal for a couple of years and then retire?
If anything, I could see her getting nice fat contracts as a consultant on language-immersion and project-based learning programs. Seems like that would be much more interesting and lucrative than being a mid-level bureaucrat.
She did oppose MI at the outset, but I think she read the situation and decided to see what she would do with it.
I don't think it's a good idea, but i think Susan Charles has sold herself on it. She has a bit of a crusader streak.
a resident of College Terrace

Resident -- you may be right and more parents rather than fewer will be attracted by MI at Ohlone.
But as a prospective parent, I'd have a more fundamental concern about the program: that MI at Ohlone is an ambitious new educational program that has so far been made up, essentially, on the fly.
It's something that's bothered me ever since the late-in-the-day decision to house MI at Ohlone: that we still don't know exactly what is being proposed here.
The feasibility study and all the comparative research done for it was based on a different model of instruction. So far as I can tell, the changes in the study since then have reflected a new timetable but have said next to nothing about how it might work with a new instructional method.
Has anyone actually articulated what it really means to teach MI in an 'Ohlone' way? What does such instruction actually look like? Have other schools tried something like this or is it entirely novel? What are the chances of its being a success? Are we trying something really, really tough here? Who knows?
You can bet parents will want to know before placing their children in the program and, surely, the BOE should have a really firm command of questions like these before it decides whether or not the program would be a positive addition to the district.
Right now, however, it seems to me, we just have the word of Susan Charles and district administrators that they'll make it work. That's nice, but when starting a new program – especially one as deeply controversial as this – isn't the educationally responsible thing to do to ask for something more than a promise? Doesn't the educational soundness of the proposed program count for anything, after all?
Surely the responsible thing, then – for the sake of the students likely to be put through it – is for the BOE to refrain from voting MI Choice at Ohlone though until they have a better understanding of the educational program being proposed.

Just reminding some of the "parents" in this thread that there is a vacancy of High School principal in this District at present. With Scotty Lawrence's promotion to assistant super, we now need a new principal at Paly.
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on May 9, 2007 at 3:11 pm
I think you could do a lot worse than Susan Charles as principal at Paly, but I honestly think that's not her goal. Right now, she has her own playground, so to speak. She has leeway to experiement in a way that she wouldn't have at Paly or, frankly, most public schools. She has a lot of ego invested in Ohlone and she's done terrific things with the school--I mean, we're talking about a six-month appointment extending to 10 years. That's not an accident.
I mean, the Paly position's been open more than once in the last 10 years.
Of course, there'd be a presentation before approval of the Ohlone/MI mash-up in a rational world. But we're clearly not in that world. I mean, in a rational world, we don't have parents push a choice program at any cost. In the rational world, people do what Faith Brigel did with the recall petition--you pull back when the price is too high. PACE can't even acknowledge that there is a price. There's an inability to deal or even see criticism. Dismissing all objections as "racist" can be a convenient form of denial. I've noticed that the accusations of racism tend to be generic and, at best, require a lot of inference. The closest Ive seen to anything specific was a sort of convuluted discussion about whether supporting SI was inherently racist if it was based on American latinos being a traditionally impoverished groups.
Unfortunately, the forum mods pretty much censor out any discussion of personalities because I think you can't understand why things are happening unless you know something about the people involved. Why would you push something to the point where it's causing more harm than good? Not just for the district, but, quite possibly, for your own children? Why are only some solutions acceptable and others not even discussed? If you know something about the personalities involved, things become a little clearer.
And, frankly, a more open discussion might have helped everyone. One of PACE's biggest blunders is that it didn't engage non-believers. It seems to have always had an us v. them attitude. Again, a reflection of the managment.

I have seen this act before. SI was dumped on Escondido, once Fairmeadow could get rid of it. Now I see a similar scenario: Dump MI on Ohlone then, after three years dump it on ... Escondido, AGAIN!
The problem is that internal choice schools are destroying neighborhood schools. Ohlone is as much at fault as SI, MI and DI. You guys want what you want, but you refuse to look at the big picture.
If the internally selective programs were to be moved out to charters or (better yet) vouchers, we would not be having this sad discussion.
a resident of Another Palo Alto neighborhood

Al..Charter Schools demand space also. So, no solution.
Vouchers assume any program which has enough takers to grow, will. So, any program could "take over" a neighborhood school if there were demand.
No, neither is the solution, at the moment, to the ability of a district to determine what kind of district it wants. The only way that will happen is to modify charter laws to improve their relevance to their intent..
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on May 9, 2007 at 8:59 pm
Charter law specifically states that public schools can not be turned into charters unless the staff and others are on board.
Ohlone and Hoover did not destroy neighborhood schools. At the time of their inception, PAUSD was closing a third of its schools. Ohlone and Hoover kept schools open *and* attracted students to a district which had experienced a dramatic drop.
I agree that right now, the district's priority should be on finding spots for the kids that are here, not in creating more choice programs--particularly ones that divide schools. That's very different than saying extant choice schools that have been around for decades and are very successful should be closed.
Fact is my offspring re in the Duveneck draw area--Duveneck is overcrowded. Because I choose Ohlone, I'm voluntarily giving up my neighborhood spot--that's one less kid being shipped involuntarily to Barron Park.
The main complaints I hear about SI doesn't apply to either Ohlone or Hoover, which is that the SI kids are getting a curriculum perk and that the families in in the neighborhood part of Escondido feel like second-class citizens.
None of this would be such a big deal if the PAUSD had paid attention to what was happening demographically. Instead of endless hours wasted on a small choice program (oh boy more lotteries, more waiting lists, more grousing), it would have been nice for the district to look at ways to open another neighborhood school--Garland--for north Palo Alto and then expanded Ohlone another half strand to reduce pressure on Palo Verde.

"Charter law specifically states that public schools can not be turned into charters unless the staff and others are on board. "
OhlonePar, I don't know if that is true of not. I will take your word for it. The way it should go is as follows:
1. Establish a district-wide policy that all schools are to be neighborhood schools. Kids that live near a school go there...period. If the parents don't like that, then they can:
2. Establish charter schools. For instance, those, like yourself, who like cooperative learning situations can form your own charter. Same for DI, SI, MI, etc. The neighborhood schools would deliver whatever standard curriculum that is established by the district.
This way, the public schools will survive in Palo Alto. Otherwise, they will slowly disappear, as more and more neighborhood parents get fed up with the 'special need' parents. In the end, the decision will be made at the ballot box, on bond issues.

Graham: Yeah, it's time to subpoena the Obama administration on the Benghazi survivors
posted at 10:41 am on March 21, 2013 by Erika Johnsen
At the White House press briefing on Monday, Jay Carney once again insisted that, why no, the White House is not blocking access to the injured survivors and first-hand witnesses of the still-under-investigation terrorist attack in Benghazi that resulted in the deaths of four Americans in September.
Which was probably news to a handful of Republican senators currently pushing for more access to and information about the Benghazi survivors as part of their Congressional investigation. Last week, Sen. Lindsey Graham voiced his suspicions that the witnesses have been "told to keep quiet" by the Obama administration: "The best evidence of what happened in Benghazi is not a bunch of politicians in Washington trying to cover their political ass. This is the people who lived through the debacle, and I'm going to do all I can to get them before the Congress and American people." He also urged the House leadership to subpoena the White House if and when it became necessary to help wring out the details — a plea on which he intends to follow through today.
I'm going to meet with the House leadership tomorrow, hoping they will take up the Benghazi cause. Look how far we've come from what the story was told by Susan Rice. Look what we found out by pushing on this show and other shows, CBS and mainly FOX. The whole scenario told by the president and Susan Rice has absolutely collapsed. …
To my House colleagues, please, for god's sake step up your game when it comes to Benghazi. You have tools I don't because I'm in the minority party in the Senate. Unfortunately Harry Reid hasn't looked to push the administration. Look what we did on Iraq and interrogation techniques gone bad under t the Bush administration. The Democratic senators have given the president a pass when it comes to Benghazi. The House cannot give him a pass. …
I think that Speaker Boehner is very much in the mindset of trying to get to the bottom of Benghazi. But yes, I will urge Speaker Boehner to use the powers of the House not to chase rabbits, but to get to the bottom line. We have not heard from the people who went through this debacle who were there on the ground. I guarantee if this had been a good news story we would have heard from them the next day. The fact we haven't heard from them for six months should make every American worried about what this administration is covering up.
Motion, seconded.
