Fruit, Dessert & More Rub**
Preparation: Drain the juice from the peaches into a saucepan, reserve peach slices and set aside. In a small mixing bowl, mix the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and Java Gourmet Fruit, Dessert, & More Rub until well combined. Stir the sugar mixture slowly into the peach juice in saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until thickened. [Note: It is important to keep your heat medium-low and not cook the mixture too quickly so as not to burn your syrup.] Add the almond flavoring, reserved peach slices, sliced strawberries and heat through. Serve over pound cake, sponge cake, shortcake biscuits or angel food cake. Enjoy with a crisp and refreshing glass of

Notes: *Canned peaches work particularly well for this recipe, but if you'd prefer to use fresh peaches, use 1 ½ cups of fresh peach slices, and substitute ½ cup of peach nectar or juice for the canned peach juice. Add additional nectar/juice or cornstarch in small amounts to thin or thicken the syrup as needed. **We recommend starting with 1 teaspoon of the Java Gourmet Fruit, Dessert & More Rub and adding more to suit your taste. As another option, slice pound cake, spread with butter, sprinkle the rub onto the pound cake, then broil for 3-5 minutes. Top with the prepared sauce and serve.

David Banton said he had it all — a thriving state-wide company that allowed him to buy four houses in 10 years, each bigger than the previous one, and an income that afforded him a new car every three or four months.
Still, he was empty.
''People I lived around would have thought I was happy by where I lived, what I drove, how I lived,'' he says, ''but I was the same David that sat in the woods with a shotgun wondering if I wanted to keep living or not.
''I was never content or satisfied with having nice things. I could see I was trying to fill a void in my life with things — we all do that — we're seeking joy, true joy and lasting peace and it eludes us.''
Banton compared his search to that of a drug addict, who craves to have a bigger high. He says he has found fulfillment more than three years ago, answering a call from God to travel and witness to people.
''On Resurrection Sunday, 2010, I set out on a journey I could have never imagined, and that's to go and share the Jesus that I almost passed over pursing the American dream,'' he says. ''This passion to share Christ and follow Christ is motivated by love, and I don't think I could have understood that 15 years ago, not the way I do now.
For the past 34 months, he's been venturing out in his bright yellow-and-black pickup truck that has a large cross planted in its bed and pulls a 12-foot trailer. He visits four cities in the same state in a month. He's in Lake Charles this week after stints in New Orleans, Baton Rouge and Lafayette.
Baptized at 16, Banton said he spent the next 20 years without showing any evidence that he was saved. He says a brain hematoma in 2006 and a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in 2009 turned him around.
''That changed on November 9th, 2009, when I met the person of Christ,'' he says. ''It was a reality that he existed, it wasn't just an idea.
''I can look back now and see all of this happened for my good. I needed to be humbled. I was self-sufficient, OK in business and I didn't have a need, so there was no reason to seek God. But I was missing him.
''God was at work. By God's grace I am saved and through his grace and his mercy and his love, God never left me.''
He said he felt the call to begin sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
''I thought I had seven to eight months to prepare,'' Banton says. ''He told me to go on Resurrection Sunday. ... I said, 'Lord, that's pressure, that's in five weeks and two days.' So that's how much time was involved in preparing to go.''
On his first sortie, he visited six states before returning home to Colonial Heights, Va. Louisiana is his ninth state in this journey. He hopes to make Washington state by August and return home to Virginia by December.
His bright truck with the large cross in the back is his calling card.
''It draws people to me,'' Banton says. ''I don't have to chase people, if you will.
''The idea is to share this Jesus that I almost passed over, to let people know that Jesus is real and to compel them to come to Christ. I don't want people to miss it.
''... when you see the vehicle, you can imagine that it takes a whole lot of courage just to do that, and to be ready and to give an answer for the hope that is within you. It's incredible and it's an honor and a privilege to be able to help change somebody like me, and I have the honor to follow Christ. I don't know any other greater honor I could have set out to achieve.''
Banton, who has been visiting Cornerstone University on Broad Street this week, plans to leave for Houston on Monday.
Banton writes a weekly blog for his website www.hiscall888.com

crack in glass mirror
Above my gas fireplace I have a large wall mirror and a crack has started from the corner of a switch hole that was previously cut int the mirror. The crack can't be felt on the surface but you can see it in the mirror about 8 inches long. Is ther anything I can do to prevent the crak from expanding?
crack in mirror
About the only way to stop the crack form expanding would be to drill a hole thru the mirror at the end of the crack.
This is obviously not an ideal solution - but there really is no other way to stop it from spreading.
Check with your local glass shop and they may have an extra one that they might sell for a few dollars.
When drilling glass, don't let it get hot...take your time and try not to hurry.

The Steamboat Springs School District made an appropriate, justifiable decision last week to withhold hot lunches from students with unpaid balances on their meal accounts.
While the decision sparked an outcry from some local parents and coverage from media outlets across the state, a knee-jerk reaction of anger toward the school district is not warranted.
This is no Dickensian tale of a hungry Oliver Twist pleading for another bowl of gruel at the orphanage. District officials say every elementary school student with an unpaid account was, and will continue to be, provided with food during their school day. Although the same is not true for middle and high school students, those students are old enough to understand the responsibility of meal costs and manage their eating habits.
This actually is a story of parents simply not keeping up with their children's accounts.
Nutritional Services Director Max Huppert said that when food services staff began withholding hot lunches Jan. 5, the school district was facing about $10,000 in unpaid lunch fees on a total of about 500 accounts. During the past week, those numbers have dropped to about $2,800 in unpaid fees on about 100 accounts, primarily at Steamboat Springs Middle School and Steamboat Springs High School. At Steamboat's two public elementary schools, Huppert said, only a handful of students remain with unpaid accounts.
Soda Creek Elementary School office staff - who have called every local family with an unpaid account at the school - said that despite the number of unpaid accounts, there has not been an increase in requests for free or reduced-cost lunches as families bring their accounts up to speed. Huppert said there have been only a few such requests overall.
The speed with which overdue accounts have been paid and the lack of requests for reduced-cost meals indicate that the vast number of unpaid meal accounts was not because of an inability to pay but because of parents forgetting to pay.
We understand that busy parents can forget things. Every parent has a wealth of bills to pay and things to do - and not enough hours in the day to accomplish it all. But school district staff made every reasonable effort to contact parents with unpaid accounts, well before hot meals began to be withheld last week.
In December, food services staff sent letters to parents of elementary school students with unpaid accounts. Middle school and high school students, Huppert said, were told about their meal account status while receiving lunch during the three weeks leading up to the holiday break.
Ultimately, parents are responsible for making sure students have a good lunch every day. To make sure their child can receive hot lunches at school, parents can create and add to an account on the Web at www.steamboatschoolfood.com. The site also allows parents to monitor their child's food purchases.
Parents also can hand a check to elementary school office staff or food services staff at the middle school or high school.
Huppert and office staff said the vast majority of their interactions with parents who have unpaid accounts have been positive. Local families have been appreciative of the notification and eager to update their accounts.
Perhaps the greatest lesson from the recent school lunch hubbub will be learned by the children themselves, who got a quick lesson on the value of a dollar and paying bills promptly.
That's a valuable life lesson for all, and, in this case, it is appropriate that it came from the school of hard knocks.

Opposition slams Nixon as Halloran returns
Page Tools
Peter Halloran
Photo: Craig Abraham
THE Opposition has attacked Chief Commissioner Christine Nixon and other senior police over their treatment of Superintendent Peter Halloran.
Mr Halloran, 57, returned to Melbourne yesterday, determined to restore his reputation after he was charged, convicted and finally acquitted of the sexual assault of a teenage girl in Sierra Leone. He was working there as a war crimes investigator, on unpaid leave from the police force.
Mornington MP Robin Cooper launched an attack in Parliament, accusing Ms Nixon of pursuing "a personal agenda" against Mr Halloran, a former homicide squad chief.
Opposition police spokesman Kim Wells said he had been approached separately by a source who named four officers involved in a smear campaign against Mr Halloran.
Mr Cooper said he had the names of two senior officers who were "happy to sink the boot in" by spreading false stories about Mr Halloran.
But he did not name them in Parliament, as he had earlier threatened to do.
Opposition Leader Robert Doyle called on the Victoria Police to investigate any members accused of inappropriate behaviour against Mr Halloran.
Ms Nixon denied having a "personal agenda". "He will make an application to come back into full-time work again and we will look at where we might place him," Ms Nixon said yesterday. "He has been through incredibly traumatic times. It's about when he is ready and what kind of work he wants."
His position in charge of the Victorian Protective Security Division has been declared vacant and he has not been told if he can return to duty. Mr Halloran said he would accept Ms Nixon's offer to meet to discuss his future.

Sorry Elrey, money order for that Galco is going out today...:image035: Actually it was fate, its the only gun that didn't have both IWB and OWB covered for my modest grouping. I'd been selling some of the things I didn't need but this was the one slot I needed. I like being able to either sell or buy extra gear with the members of this forum. Just seem's like you can trust them and you know they will use/appreciate the gear!
I would be interested in g27/g23 stuff . iwb/owb holsters, mags, etc.
The Gold Dots, Galco and 6004 are all spoken for. The Aker, scope rings and 308 ammo are still available.
Honestly, I don't care if the rest of the stuff sells, but i would like to get it out of my shop. Perhaps we should keep this open through the weekend and then shut her down.
So... Speak up if you want whats left.
PM Inbound
PM outbound.
Unrelated to the PM, the Aker is sold now too.

Water Rescues Eclipse Summer's End
The lifeguards were officially offduty for the season at 6:00 p.m. on September 1. That however, as in years past, didn't stop people from trying to grab one last piece of summer, even without lifeguards on duty.
Six swimmers, in separate incidents over the two day span of Monday's Labor Day holiday and Tuesday, nearly lost their lives as they dared to test the unpredictable Atlantic Ocean currents off Rockaway Beach.
The lifeguards did rescue one man on Labor Day, but the other five victims were all aided by some heroic civilians who rushed into the ocean each time to save the victims.
Monday, September 1, 2:30 p.m.
Beach 102 Street
The most dramatic of the water rescues this week occurred while lifeguards were still on duty this Labor Day. A 74-year-old ex-marine and experienced swimmer, Frank Coffey, was struck in the head at 2:30 p.m. by a powerful wave and lost consciousness. His body was floating lifelessly on the water when lifeguards rushed in and pulled his body onto shore. Paramedics performed CPR and were able to resuscitate Coffey. He is recovering and in stable condition at Peninsula Hospital Center.
Eyewitness Louis Scandole of Staten Island remembers speaking with Coffey moments before he disappeared into the currents. He says they made quick conversation about the beautiful ocean and then Coffey went for a swim.
"I noticed he wasn't there anymore, but I didn't think anything of it," he said. "I didn't want myself to be the last person he said something to on this earth." Scandole described Coffey as purple in color and says it was a scary moment. "He was under there a long while," he said. "I am glad that he will be ok though." Monday, September 1, 6:05 p.m. Beach 73 Street
Later in the day a 62-year-old man nearly drowned after he was pulled under by the rough afternoon tides off Beach 73 Street just minutes after lifeguards abandoned their posts for the summer.
Witnesses say the man was pulled from the water by a family relative and brought back to shore safely at 6:05 p.m. Authorities arrived on the scene and he was brought to Peninsula Hospital Center after experiencing dizziness and headaches. He is also in stable condition at the hospital.
Tuesday, September 2, 4:20 p.m. Beach 84 Street
Beachgoers continued to test the waters the following day and as the rough currents of the afternoon tides came ashore, three more people were nearly lost.
However, thanks to the heroics of two men and the help of neighboring surfers, the swimmers were pulled to safety.
Cousins Samantha Rivera, 14, and Sean Acevedo, 18, were trying to get out of the water when they suddenly felt like they couldn't move. Once the two began screaming, Samantha's mother, Irma, knew her daughter was in trouble.
That's when Eugene Werner and Reggie Rollins, along with several other surfers, rushed into the water to save the two children.
"We all rushed into the water on pure adrenaline," Werner said. "It was an
exciting way to end the day, and I am just glad to see everyone is doing ok." Rollins, a longtime friend of Werner, says they were packing up to go home when they heard the screams and saw two people in the water. "I'm not the best swimmer; I took my boogie board out and put the guy on the board. I didn't want to see anyone drown." Irma says the men are angels for saving her family. "I don't know what I can do to repay them," she said. "Everybody chipped in to help. I was terrified, but I will never again go in the water without lifeguards." Surfers also rescued another man who was drowning at the same time a few blocks away. He was taken to Peninsula Hospital and is in stable condition.Tuesday, September 2, 5:30 p.m. Beach 95 Street
Sean Flaherty was discussing with a fellow surfer what had just happened on Beach 84 Street, when another unidentified male in his late 20s to early 30s began struggling in the water.
"I was on the beach talking about what had just happened, when I saw this guy struggling in the water," Flaherty said. "I got up and started running to the guy with one other surfer and another with a boogie board."
His friend and fellow surfer, Rich Hunter, was showing Flaherty how to rescue someone with their surfboards, when he immediately got the chance to learn,
hands-on. "When we got to him he was speaking," Flaherty said. "We tried to keep his head above water and keep him from drowning, but he was beginning to succumb to the waters." Flaherty described the man as barely conscious when they brought him to shore. He seemed dizzy and disoriented and was brought to Peninsula Hospital Center for evaluation.

ALL NEW BOOK: The Exploitation of Nancy: Benoit vs Hustler
Just released, my latest book, and possibly the last Blaq Book for this year.
She was one of the original Divas of the WWE. Nancy Benoit's life was tragically cut short in one of the biggest scandals ever to hit professional wrestling, but her exploitation didn't end there. When Hustler Magazine decided to publish nude photos of Nancy, taken over a decade earlier, her family decided to sue. For the first time, here is the full trial transcript of Benoit vs Hustler, complete with testimony from Larry Flynt and many others.
Sporting a stunning cover painted and designed by Steven Bove, this book makes for interesting reading if you're interested in copyright, legal studies or the WWE in general. You can order a Kindle edition now on Amazon for a mere $4.99 - try it, you might end up liking it!

Ruby Princess...OK, but could be so much more: Ruby Princess Cruise Review by jsactor
Overall Member Rating
Ruby Princess...OK, but could be so much more
Destination: Transatlantic
Embarkation: Fort Lauderdale (Port Everglades)
They introduced three new production shows on this cruise, and I will say that they were all some of the best that I have seen...Most cruises you have some cast members that totally outshine others...this time they all were wonderful. The comedians were good to sometimes great, the musicians were good..one weak moment was the hypnotist, but overall I felt the entertainment was outstanding. The cruise director seems more involved than on some other ships and that was nice, but the rest of his staff seemed somewhat lacking, and when they were friendly, it just came across as totally phony.
Our cabin was nice enough as was our steward, nothing outstanding, but nothing negative. The bar staff for the most part More was friendly and efficient.
The food was typical cruise food....when you cook for thousands of people, you are not going to get 5 star. There were some nights better than others, but all in all, it was ok. We had anytime dining, and the service was very good. The lunch buffet was not great, as they are now starting this thing with pre-made wrapped sandwiches..reminded me of getting a sandwich at a 7-11. You still have other choices, just not a direction that I like to see the cruise line go in. The Burger and Pizza stations were both good.
My biggest complaint...which was shared by hundreds of passengers was the port scheduling. Now I totally understand that you can't be in every port on the ideal day...BUT we were scheduled in Rome on May 1st, which turns out to be a holiday and the Vatican Museums and Sistine Chapel were closed. No one was told this until you were on the ship, so unless you somehow knew on your own, you were in for major disappointment. This will be many people's only visit to Rome, and of all things to visit on this itinerary, those were the highlights. Now I understand that the cruise line did not have anything to do with the closings, but I do feel strongly that all passengers should have been told upfront that the Vatican Museum and Sistine Chapel would be closed, so that those passengers that were going because of this port could have made an educated decision instead of just being told..too bad, it's closed....Those two things were the reason that many chose this ship and itinerary...as a matter of fact when my partner and I selected this itinerary for our Transatlantic voyage, we chose this one because it included Rome and the fact that I wanted to see the Sistine Chapel.....
All in All, the Ruby Princess does an adequate job.......I felt a bit let down because my expectations were perhaps too high with this being their new ship...
Once again. just one passenger's opinion..... Less

The birds on patrolBiodiversity
Our South African born vineyard manager Andre Lategan introduced a rasp of African Guinea Fowl back in 2004 and thanks to Andre's dedication in egg hunting, incubation and nursery care the birds are now flourishing. They patrol the vineyard in "gangs" or "teams" and like feeding on the grass grub pest. From time to time Andre also lets us test the theory that Pinot Noir is a great food match with gamey bird.

One of Amisfield's cornerstone sustainability projects has been the development of New Zealand's first wetland winery waste water recycling plants, which is testament to our ongoing commitment to sustainable management practices throughout our business. Wetlands are amazingly efficient and diverse ecosystems that have the ability to stabilise and purify the natural environment. With every winemaking facility there comes the responsibility to manage the resulting waste water which can include residues from the juices and cleaning materials. On average 4L of water for every Litre of wine produced is used in the cleaning process accompanying the winemaking. Ten years ago when… Continue reading →

The Associated Press chimes in today on the Citibank ATM hacking story you've been following here. The article doesn't shake loose any new information, but the mainstream press attention makes it all but inevitable that Citibank and Cardtronics will eventually have to come clean on the breach. So far, neither company has revealed how many PINs were compromised, or how much money has been stolen.
It's unclear how many Citibank customers were affected by the breach, which extended at least from October 2007 to March of this year and was first reported by technology news Web site Wired.com. The bank has nearly 5,700 Citibank-branded ATMs inside 7-Eleven Inc. stores throughout the U.S., but it doesn't own or operate any of them.
That responsibility falls on two companies: Houston-based Cardtronics Inc., which owns all the machines but only operates some, and Brookfield, Wis.-based Fiserv Inc., which operates the others.
A critical issue in the investigation is how the hackers infiltrated the system, a question that still hasn't been answered publicly.

Date of Stay: June, 2009
We camped here two nights: one going to Colorado and the other coming back, about 11 days later. We find it to be reasonably sufficient for a one night stay. Staff were friendly to us and we were escorted to our site by one of the staff. Our sites were easy to pull into and get out of, as they had plenty of room. We were able to get wifi and cable tv ok at our site. If we need to stay here again as a waypoint on one of our trips, would do so.
Date of Stay: June, 2009
We stayed here for 10 nights. Would stay here again. It is the largest RV park in the area, and as far as I am concerned it is the only choice for us. The other parks appeared to be too cramped and hard to get a big rig in and out of. Not this one. Plenty of room. Appears to be an older RV park, mostly with gravel. Our site had no trees, but we did not find it to be an issue. Stunning moountain views, including Long's Peak. Bathrooms and showers were spotless. We had to pay extra for cable tv, but was worth it, as we got as many channels as we could handle. Wifi was available, and we accessed it each day of our stay. As other folks have posted, this park is literally at the entrance to Rocky Mountain Natl. Park. You can walk to the visitor center, as it is about a mile down the road. Moreover, you are also about 15 min. walking distance from a few shops and a small grocery. Bottom line: recommended.
Date of Stay: September, 2007
Camped here for one night. Friendly staff welcomed us; escorted us to our site. Most of park was rock gravel. Very clean campground about 3 or 4 miles east of Cortez. For us it was easy to get into and get out of. Would stay here again.
Date of Stay: September, 2007
Pulled in here for a one night stay. Probably got the last big rig pull thru available. The campground is not far from the center part of the city, such as Temple Square. Most sites seem to be fairly close together, but we had no trouble getting in. Apparently near a train, because we heard train whistles all night. Staff tried to be friendly and helpful, but because the place was full, they seemed a bit frazzled.
Date of Stay: September, 2007
We camped here for 15 nights in a 5th wheel. Everything went very well for us here. The campground is within walking distance to shopping. All services they provided worked well, except the wifi worked about 80% of the time. We had a shady site not too far from the pet area. The next time we visit the area, we will stay here again.

Patience Is A Virtue In Analyzing NFL Draft
By Elio Velez
I know the NFL playing season is over. The season ended in wintery February and we are now in full bloom in Spring. (The wacky weather changes messed with my sinuses totally this week.) The middle of April becomes NFL draft time. Mel Kiper Jr. becomes the most knowledgeable and important football analyst to ever appear in an ESPN screen. ESPN gives you wall-to-wall coverage on networks and Internet to drive you mad. A mad two-day extravaganza, where people holler and scream at college players most have never seen in their lives.
The idea of the draft, more than ever, is to get players that will help quickly in this salary cap era. I understand Giants and Jets fans at the draft (even the Raider fan that was decked out in full armor, studs and makeup on TV that scared the bejeezus out of me) want quick results.
Here is what the Mel Kipers, the Ernei Accorsi and all the draftniks keep trying to tell all of the fans who expect magic to be drafted every time. The NFL Draft is at most a crapshoot. Chill out because we aren't sure that all our picks would turn out ok. The Giants would love TE Jeremy Shockey to be the next Mark Bavaro, heck they would love him to be Shannon Sharpe. General Manager Ernie Accorsi would love to have a first round pick actually become successful.
Have you ever heard of first round Giant picks such as Jarrod Bunch, Derek Brown and Thomas Lewis? They never turned out to Rice, Butkus or Sayers that's for sure. So the Giants messed up, it happens. But for those horrible choices, there was: Michael Strahan, 2nd round choice in 93, Jesse Armstead 8th round choice in 93, Sam Garnes, 5th round pick in 97. So some picks actually turned out for the G-Men. (No not the G-Man but with the lack of receiving depth, I expect him to challenge for a starting job if he was ever signed up!)
For anyone tuning into the Saturday portion of the draft, I was anticipating the Jets' first round pick. I predicted them taking some college player those so-called experts and Jets fans at the Garden weren't expecting. I love when curveballs are thrown. When they picked DE Bryan Thomas, it didn't matter he was a pass rusher that the Jets missed dearly last year as they was ravaged in Oakland in the playoffs. You know the real reason they booed him.
He wasn't from a big college that played all the time on TV.
When was it deemed sacred that most football players should be drafted from top schools because they play at Michigan or Florida State on ABC? Don't discriminate players from small schools who most supposed experts believe can't perform in the big top. If that were the reason, then Walter Payton, who came from Jacksonville State, or Steve McNair from Alcorn State, would have never been drafted? We would have missed out on great talents because they was discriminated for not attending the large schools. Luckily for those players, scouts were there to mine the great talent.
Another reason the Jets did take Thomas and not a cornerback was because they were going to get free agent Donnie Abraham to come in. Jets fans almost rioted at the draft choice. The dude hasn't been drafted 5 minutes and already he is regarded as trash by Jet fans in game time war paint and J-E-T-S chants. This is why I don't go to the Theatre at the Garden to take up the offers to wait at dawn to watch a snoozefest. And those fans don't make it easier for me to watch it.
The teams on draft day get a pass from me. I don't second-guess most teams on their choices. Tom Brady was a sixth round choice for the Patriots and the heck I knew he would be a Super Bowl quarterback. But I will second-guess the Jets and Giants three years from now if the draftees have panned out or struck out. That's my job ladies and gentlemen. The teams know it's coming.
Root, Root Root, For The Home Team?
The Charlotte Hornets do not play home games. They are effectively playing all their games on the road. Why? Ineffective and controversial ownership plans to move a championship contender from a growing city such as Charlotte to New Orleans. N.O. has laid out the red carpet to owner George Shinn, who was charged with sexual harassment and leaving an arena that was only built in 1988.
The bull that Shinn pulls out to media is that he should get respect and blah blah, so of course the Charlotte fans don't care anymore. In Game 1 against Orlando, 10,000 fans out of capacity of 23,000 showed up.
What I want to see is the fans stick the middle finger like Stone Cold and show up the NBA and ownership. Fans don't know the political games that are played behind closed doors. The lack of understanding that Commissioner David Stern shows Charlotte and other cities around the league is disgusting. They admit money is the almighty dollar and that is what they subscribe to. Loyalty be damned because if the home city don't show the money, some other city would.
Don't ever believe that any teams can't move anywhere else for greener pastures. This city remembers the Dodgers, Giants, football Giants and Jets leaving town. The Jets and Giants may be in Jersey but it isn't New York proper they reside in. They reside in East Rutherford, N.J. Until next week, Peace.

Module 32
Communication in the Online Classroom
Communication in a online classroom can be classified in the following ways:
|Between the teacher and the whole class or groups of students
|Between the teacher and individual students
|Between a student and the whole class or groups
|Forums / Groups
|Between individual students
As you become more fluent with the online classroom, you will start to see how almost any interactions possible in a traditional classroom can be reproduced online.
Many teachers find the "forum" or discussion board, to be the most comfortable and versatile tool for group discussions. Messages posted on a forum can be read by the teacher and all students. There's also an option (called 'subscribing') where the messages posted in a forum are sent to someone's email address as well.
Forums can be started by the teacher with an inital post, conversation starter, or discussion prompt. They can be structured as one long line of posts and responses, OR students can be given the option to start their own "threads", in which case the forum will have "branches" where conversations can take different directions.
By going to anybody's 'profile' page, you can 'Send a Message' to that person. This is a private message between two people. It is similar to email, but the communication never leaves the Moodle system. (However if the recipient doesn't log in within a certain time, the message will also get emailed to them.)
Messaging is useful in a class setting when answering unique questions; private matters, or anything else that doesn't need to be shared with the class as a whole.
Messages can be sent from students to other students as well.
There is a mechanism for turning on a 'Groups' option in Moodle. Turning this on allows a teacher to mark some (or all) forums as 'Group Mode'. In this situation, a separate forum will exist for each of the groups. Students will see the forum for their own group, and the teacher will be able to see all of them.
In order to use this feature, the teacher will have to create the groups and select which students belong to each group. Once this is done, group mode can be turned on for any of the activities in the online class.
The new options that appear with 'Groups' turned on can be overwhelming. In a forum, there are options to:
Which one to choose depends on the goals of the course. Remember that more options tends to increase the chances for your students to be confused, so you may want to start with the simplest options. You can always expand from them as the class becomes accustomed to their use.
Teachers can use groups in the same variety of ways that groups get used in face to face classes: correcting each other's work, having smaller, closer discussions, brainstorming, projects, et cetera.

A few months ago my dad mentioned the 9:30 Club (now apparently officially known as Nightclub 9:30, which I like less) on his blog and how he had always intended to go to a show there. I joked that he should come out in June and go to Calexico with us. Fastforward to last week, when he called up to say he would be coming to DC for a meeting on Friday, the very Friday of the concert. (The show also corresponded with/prompted a forty-eight-hour break in Jason's travel schedule, but more on that later.)
We decided to drive in, since there's something so unappealing about taking the metro after midnight. I thought we had to pick up the $12 parking pass, so I headed up to U Street after work on Friday. Turns out our names would just be on the register at the parking lot that evening, but I did also pick up my dad's ticket, saving us some time later on.
Before the show we had dinner at Silver Diner, a favorite for my dad because they serve beets and brussels sprouts.
Of the three of us, I have (hilariously) the most driving-in-DC-recently experience, so I took the wheel when we headed into the city at 9:15 p.m. To be clear, I am usually getting ready for bed at 9:15 p.m. and was legitimately worried I might fall asleep during the concert (or worse, driving us home). I missed a turn that I think would have gotten me to a diagonal (New Hampshire?) and instead ended up taking the least direct route to the venue. We pulled into the parking lot just before 10 p.m. and headed inside.
Okay, the 9:30 Club is pretty cool.
Also, I was really excited to have Jason home.
Gaby Moreno, a Guatamalan singer-songwriter opened with four or five songs. She has a really really interesting voice. A couple guys from Calexico joined her for one song.
When she was done, the band members came out and checked their instruments (which seemed sort of quaint). Around 10:30, Calexico came out and opened up with "Falling from the Sky".
I can't emphasize enough how great Calexico is live. Maybe part of the awesomeness was due to the intimate venue, but they were seriously great (and this coming from a girl who speaks limited Spanish)(though to be fair they sing in English quite a lot)(and Jason translated the Spanish songs in my ear because his language skills are on point).
Gaby Moreno joined them for a couple songs. I think she should probably just join Calexico full time.
Also, there was accordion, with a mic taped to the front.
They played for almost two hours, then did four more songs across two encores. Sometimes at concerts I get sick of standing (or standing in the rain, as the Dave Matthews Band case may be), but I was having a blast long after midnight.
I'm glad I got to go with Jason and my dad, my two biggest music influencers. I distinctly remember hearing the two of them talk music back when we were dating and thinking, "Wait. Jason is exactly like my dad." That's a good thing. We had such a fantastic time together, as you can tell from our big grins.
The show ended around 12:45 and we headed home by a more direct route. We dropped my dad at his hotel and said good-bye, as he was flying home to Utah early the next morning to be home in time for the Payson Temple cultural celebration. Jason and I stopped by CVS on the way home to pick up more travel-sized contact solution and finally got to bed around 2 a.m.

Automated measurement of carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen partial pressures in surface waters
Limnol. Oceanogr., 43(5), 1998, 969-975 | DOI: 10.4319/lo.1998.43.5.0969
ABSTRACT: An automated system capable of accurate determinations of O2, C2, and N, partial pressures (p) in surface waters is described. The system is composed of a programmable data logger-controller, an infrared C2 analyzer, a polarographic 2 electrode, and a barometer linked to a submersed gas exchanger made of thin-walled (100 pm) silicone elastomer tubing. Oxygen electrode calibration and drift problems are eliminated by continuously referencing p2 measurements to atmospheric readings. pN2 is calculated by subtracting pO2 + pH2O + pC2 from total dissolved gas pressure. Complete (>99%) equilibration of internal gases with water pC2 occurs within 4 min. Equilibration half-times for p2 range from 7.1 min at 21°C to 9.4 min at 05°C. The equilibration half-time for pN2 is 15.1 min at 15°C. Observations conducted in a small oligotrophic Shield Lake show that the epilimnion is usually supersaturated with both C2 (50-150 µatm) and 2 (500-4,000 µatm), with both gases exhibiting marked daily variations. The epilimnetic supersaturation (up to 2%) with respect to atmospheric 2 indicates that primary production slightly exceeds community respiration in the epilimnion. The system appears adequate for metabolic and gas flux studies, even in the most oligotrophic waters.

Tea Party supporters continually claim they are conservatives who seek to restore old American values and end the rise of big government. They accuse Democrats of creating debts, refusing to balance the budget and failing to adhere to historic conservative ideas. Let's examine the record:
1. Conservative presidents proposed budgets which were not balanced. One can only assume they ran up the debt and were proud of their accomplishments.
2. Conservatives created a war which cost money. At the same time they cut taxes–and revenue– to pay for the war.
3. Former President Bush claims WWII British Prime Minister Winston Churchill was his hero. During WWII the British leader bluntly told his people there was nothing else but blood, sweat and tears. Oh, he raised taxes.
4. President Bush made clear the US was at war. In the next breath he urged Americans to spend money–NOT TO SAVE MONEY!
5. President Bush made no effort to bring the nation together in 2001. He did not appoint Democrats to important positions. Franklin Roosevelt had two Republicans in his Cabinet and asked Wendell Wilkie, who he defeated in 1940, to become his personal representative. That is termed being an American, not being a Democrat or Republican.
6. At no point during the past ten years have Conservative leaders urged the need for shared pain in order to do what is best for the nation. Shared pain means ALL members of society share the pain of paying for wars and economic collapse.
