Did you know that one in seven students faces some type of learning disability? Roughly 85 percent of these students struggle with reading - and 5 percent to 15 percent have dyslexia. Others deal with dyscalculia, dysgraphia, expressive language disorder, and auditory and visual processing disorders.
Teaching language-based, learning-disabled (LBLD) students requires specialized methods and approaches - many of which you won't learn in a traditional Master of Education program. That's why Southern New Hampshire University developed the first-ever online Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction program with a concentration in dyslexia and language-based learning disabilities, a dyslexia master's degree online program expressly designed to help students who struggle with reading and writing succeed in elementary to high school, college and beyond.
This innovative concentration within our popular Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction program is a joint partnership with Landmark School, a renowned leader in the field of serving, educating and empowering LBLD students in elementary, middle and high school.
In the dyslexia master's degree online program, you'll learn how to cultivate academic success in K-12 children with language-based learning disabilities such as dyslexia. You'll discover how to apply innovative, highly structured practice and research-based approaches to heighten school-aged students' executive function, information-processing skills, oral and written expression levels, social-emotional confidence and ability to self-advocate. Courses will center on how students with LBLDs learn, self-regulate and benefit from tailored instruction. This program satisfies the professional development coursework needed each year to renew teacher licenses.
The dyslexia studies and language-based learning disabilities concentration is a master's - only pathway program that does not lead to initial teacher licensure, New Hampshire curriculum administrator endorsement or prepare you to become a Landmark specialist. The MEd in Curriculum and Instruction program is ideal for licensed teachers seeking an additional endorsement or select K-12 professionals who are leading in the area of curriculum and instruction.
If you are interested in obtaining state certification, check with your state's Department of Education to ensure New Hampshire certification is recognized in your home state.
As a private, nonprofit university, SNHU has one mission - to help you see yourself succeed. The benefits of earning your dyslexia master's degree online at SNHU include:
About Landmark School
Landmark School was founded in 1971 with the goal of educating students whose reading, writing, spelling and mathematical skills did not match their thinking and problem-solving capacities. Most called these children dyslexic or learning-disabled. The school's founder, Charles "Chad" Drake, saw their promise and called them bright and capable.
Landmark currently educates 450 students on two campuses in Massachusetts. The school boasts a faculty and staff of more than 300 and is recognized internationally as a leader in understanding and catering to those with language-based learning disabilities. Landmark teachers understand the dramatic range in learning differences and tap into each student's intelligence. They uncover hidden talents, remediate skill deficits, and teach students how to learn, ask questions and self-advocate. As a testament to Landmark School's effectiveness, 92 percent of its graduates attend college - more than 30 percent higher than the national average.
For nearly 40 years, Landmark's Outreach Program has provided professional development programs and in-school consulting for educators across the country.

Acceptance decisions are made on a rolling basis throughout the year for our five graduate terms. You can apply at any time and get a decision within days of submitting all required materials. To apply, simply contact an admission counselor, who can help you explore financial options. Your counselor can also walk you through the application process, which involves completing a graduate application ($40 fee) and providing undergraduate transcripts.
Candidates must also submit an acknowledgement form and professional resume. Additional forms may be required depending on your background.
The dyslexia master's degree online program, in partnership with Landmark School, is designed for both currently certified teachers and educators already leading in the area of curriculum and instruction. Roles include trainers, librarians, guidance counselors, curriculum developers, assessment administrators, program evaluators, learning center tutors and language trainers.
While job growth varies by region, teaching is an in-demand occupation. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of kindergarten, elementary and middle school teachers is projected to increase by 12 percent through 2022, while job growth for high school and special education teachers will increase by 6 percent.
The MEd in Curriculum and Instruction program with a dyslexia studies concentration is designed for certified teachers or select K-12 professionals who are leading in the area of curriculum and instruction. The program consists of 11 courses, including eight core education courses and three courses specific to dyslexia studies and language-based learning disabilities. Courses will center on how students with LBLDs learn, self-regulate and benefit from tailored instruction.
At SNHU, you'll learn from the best. Certified teachers from Landmark School designed, developed and currently teach our online courses.
This course provides an introduction to methods of educational research. These methods encourage educators to be action researchers in their own classrooms, school districts, and/or communities to improve teaching and learning practice. Students will become familiar with purposeful quantitative and qualitative research designs to develop an increased understanding of the issues, both theoretical and practical, arising through the research process. An emphasis will be placed on understanding, interpreting, and critiquing educational research and developing research proposals.
In this course, students will develop the knowledge and skills to use technology to enhance student learning and achievement. This course also introduces students to learning targets (standards/outcomes) and a general model of curriculum development, implementation and assessment.
This course is a comprehensive, practical basis for preparing school administrators and teachers to be knowledgeable, creative and effective curriculum designers. Readings will provide students information about the importance and relevance of good curriculum design. The primary focus of the course will be on the study and use of UBD (Understanding by Design). Students will develop a working model of a curriculum unit using the UBD framework.
This course builds assessment competency by analyzing recent trends in assessment for evaluating and documenting student performance and progress toward desired outcomes. Students examine the uses of assessment at the individual, class and school levels; including New England Common Assessment Data. Students will select and design assessments suitable for instructional decisions that support planning developing curriculum, and making recommendations for instructional improvement. Students will interpret and communicate the results of both externally produced and teacher-produced assessment for a variety of audiences. Students will describe valid grading procedures and discuss ethical issues linked to assessment methods and uses of assessment information.
The course will emphasize the teacher's critical role as a designer of student learning and will address how a curriculum built on the goal of student understanding using differentiated instruction can provide teachers with more specific teaching targets. The focus of this course is on the connections between Understanding by Design (UBD) and Differentiated Instruction (DI) as well as the use of standards of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) in the planning and delivery of curriculum for all types of learners.
This course examines a variety of factors that affect academic achievement for today's students from birth through the high school level. Students will examine diversity through the lens of race/ethnicity, language, economics, and academics. Culturally responsive teaching practices, including issues such as gender, ability, class, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, and cultural pluralism will be examined.
The primary goal of this course is for the student to develop awareness of ethical, professional and legal issues pertinent to educational settings. These issues include, ethical decision making processes, legal mandates related to education and special education, professional relationships, confidentiality, supervision, conflict of interest, boundaries and diversity. Additionally, we will discuss obstacles that relate to the provision of educational services in the school and with children and their parents in general.
Students are required to develop and implement two products and/or experiences and document a leadership role in the area of curriculum. Students complete a detailed proposal or plan of study on their goals, product(s), audience, follow-up, etc. for this practicum. The purpose of this practicum is to encourage the teacher as researcher and leader in curriculum development and encourage the integration and application of course work. The practicum is completed during the semester under the supervision of a school district administrator and the student's advisor.

Students with language-based learning disabilities often struggle with the cognitive and self-regulating tasks associated with executive function. These tasks range from organizing time, materials, information; preparing for work, managing frustration, accessing memory and self-monitoring one's progress and work. This course introduces educators to research-based strategies that increase and improve executive function through the use of effective study skills. While the course will explore relevant research on language-based learning disabilities and executive function, the emphasis will be placed on the practical teaching skills drawn from Landmark's Six Teaching Principles. These principles, which will be integrated throughout the course, encourage teachers to provide structured opportunities for students to achieve success, use multiple instructional modalities, create skill-based micro unit tasks, ensure student skill automatization through practice and review, provide models, and include the student in the learning process.
This course focuses on the strategies and skills for supporting expressive language skills for students with dyslexia and other language-based learning disabilities, primarily for writing. The course introduces the concepts of scaffolding the writing process, using a hierarchy of skills to build appropriate foundational skills sets, and understanding the hidden demands of writing for students with language-based learning disabilities. Students in this course will draw from relevant research on expressive language arts to develop practical teaching strategies for their own learning environments.
This course provides an overview of effective reading interventions drawn from research-based practice for students with dyslexia and other language-based learning disabilities. Students in the course will integrate appropriate assessment strategies, engage with the current research analyses on reading and language-based learning disabilities (LBLD), and develop practical strategies for supporting learners in developing the phonemic awareness, sound-symbol relationships, and decoding patterns that improve reading fluency.

TBT: Six Years of Bald Eagle Success
It's Throw Back Thursday…
Six years ago bald eagles were doing well in Pennsylvania with 140 active nests. Back then we knew it was only a matter of time before they'd be off Pennsylvania's endangered list but we couldn't imagine how quickly that would happen.
Who knew that by July 2014 we'd have 250 nests in Pennsylvania, three of them in Allegheny County, and one in Pittsburgh that's internationally famous because of its webcam!
Click on the bald eagles' photo above to go back in time to July 2008 when there were no eagles to watch at the Three Rivers Heritage Trail and far fewer eaglecams. At that time one of the famous eaglecams was at Norfolk Botanical Gardens where the pair had a Peyton Place year and an ailing eaglet.
After you read the 2008 Norfolk eagle story, you might be wondering what happened to the eaglet with avian pox. Nicknamed Buddy he lives in captivity because his beak grows in a deformed shape and must be trimmed once a month so he can eat. Though otherwise healthy, he would die in the wild without this treatment. He will never fly free.

The eagles on Pittsburgh have been great to watch. I'm still amazed the environment has cleaned up enough to support them. Imagine there were three eaglets this year and they all made it.

Sep 11, 2012 - The Associated PressYellowstone seeking input
YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK -- Yellowstone National Park is now accepting public comments on its proposal to extend the existing rules on snowmobiles and snowcoaches for another winter.
The 30-day comment period began Friday and ends Oct. 4.
Written comments may be submitted in person, by mail or online. The park says it will not accept comments by phone, fax or e-mail.
The rules allow up to 318 commercially guided snowmobiles and up to 78 guided snowcoaches in the park each day. They have been in place for the previous three winters.
UW receives $10 million gift
LARAMIE -- The University of Wyoming is getting one of its largest donations ever: $10 million to build an entrance building for the campus.
University officials announced the gift from Marian Rochelle on Friday. The money will be used to build a Gateway Center on the corner of 22nd Street and Grand Avenue, not far from War Memorial Stadium.
University spokesman Chad Baldwin says the donation ties a $10 million gift in 2007 as the single biggest cash donation in UW history.
The building will have meeting rooms and spaces for public and social events, as well as an area to commemorate the history of UW.
Construction will begin next spring and finish in 2014.

Brian Sweeney held the opposition to three runs on nine hits over seven innings but it was his work at the plate that gets recognition. He went 1-for-2 with a double and two walks, knocking in three. He walked in a run in the second and doubled in two in the fifth. On the mound, Sweeney has given up 12 runs in his previous two starts coming in. He posted a 5.46 ERA in August after two months of sub-3.00 ball in June and July.
Manny Alexander made his debut with the Beavers, going 1-for-4 with a double. He was once considered the heir apparent to Cal Ripken Jr. and Ripken's move to third base was made with Alexander in mind. The 34-year-old Dominican has played for five major league clubs, most notably the Baltimore Orioles from 1992-96. Alexander took over at shortstop when Cal Ripken moved to third base on July 15, 1996.
"Manny had a career year offensively and, a glove whiz as always, played all over the field – mostly shortstop but also saw time at 3B, 2B, 1B, and CF," reporter and authority on minor league coverage in Texas Jamey Newberg explained. "He's a good clubhouse guy and probably belongs on an NL bench. Could be useful."
Mobile is off until Friday
Lake Elsinore won 8-5
Arturo Lopez had his best start since July 23 and it was the first time since that day that he did not surrender five or more runs – a span of six starts. Lopez lasted 4.2 frames, allowing three runs, two earned, on six hits and three walks. He was pulled with two on in the fifth. Sixty-four of the 174 hits he has surrendered this year have gone for extra bases and the opposition has hit .346 off him with runners in scoring position and lefties have hit .328 against Lopez.
Ryan Klatt got the win but did allow a run in his two innings of work. It is the seventh straight relief appearance that he has given up exactly one earned run in. After posting a 2.87 ERA with the Wizards, Klatt has a 7.25 ERA with the Storm in 16 appearances. While he has been stellar with the bases empty in Lake Elsinore, holding the opposition to a .197 average, he has been dismal with RISP as batters have hit .467.
Josh Howard went 2-for-4 in his California League debut and played left field. The outfielder, brought up from Arizona Rookie ball, also added a stolen base and an RBI. He batted leadoff and notched an infield single to open the game.
Fort Wayne lost 7-3
Cesar Ramos allowed five runs on a season-high ten hits to take the loss. The left-hander had given up five earned runs over his previous three starts, a span of 17.2 innings. Of the 39 innings he has started, the leadoff hitter has reached base nine times, or 23 percent of the time. While he has kept that number down, the opposition is hitting .341 off him with RISP. He has given up two runs or less in four of his starts with Fort Wayne and four runs or more in three outings.
Yordany Ramirez went 3-for-4 on Thursday to raise his season average to .223. You have to go back to June 7 to find a time when Ramirez had a better batting average (.226). Since the start of August, Ramirez has hit .301. On July 31 he had been batting .202. He also added his 15th stolen base of the year and fifth in the last 11 games. Ramirez is hitting .244 at home this year but just .203 away from Fort Wayne.
Eugene lost 4-2
Ben Krosschell put a nice end to his second year in the system. The lively-armed right-hander went seven innings and allowed two runs, one earned, on five hits and two walks while striking out seven. Interestingly, the Ems have scored nine runs in his seven losses on the year. Each of his last two outings have established season-highs for innings pitched with six last time out and seven this time. Krosschell has given up two earned over that 13-inning span.
Adam Gold allowed his first runs in over a month on Thursday and it cost the team the game and Gold a loss. He had a scoreless streak of 13.1 innings, holding the opposition to a .156 average against. With two runs allowed his ERA went up to 5.45, even with the scoreless streak. That is because his ERA was at 9.17 before he went on his run. Of the 13 extra base hits he has surrendered this year, nine have come with runners on base.

This sub-editor, not that one.
Nick has been my IRL friend for over 25 years now (I was quite shocked when I did the maths on my fingers, Nick), and one of the many words I could use to describe him is "erudite." So I am inclined to trust him when he says:
I'm not sure there's much wrong with 'public square.' It works ok as a figure of speech. I suppose it's more or less the same as saying that religious views should be heard in the 'public arena' or 'public forum.'
If you google the phrase, it seems to have earned a toehold in the lexicon by what Scots law calls 'consuetude' (i.e. everyone's been doing it).
(Who do you know who drops words like "consuetude" into conversation?)
Hmm…. I thought. So maybe it's starting to get a particular religious connotation.
And then a reader, whom I shall call L, contacted me, off-blog, and said:
"Public Square" is religious jargon/code, a phrase currently gaining momentum from pulpits across the nation. … I suspect it's being driven from America.
In the same way that you would say "across the country", an evangelical Christian would say "across the nation", and an evangelical listener would recognise the difference. It's not dissimilar to the secret handshakes.
L suggested that I should try googling "Rick Warren" and "public square."
The results are… interesting. It seems that "public square" is becoming common koine, in evangelical circles at least, and it denotes the discussion of religion and religious matters in the public sphere. I thought that it might be the subbie or the editorial writer sneaking some evangelical language in, but L was much more charitable, and I suspect much more plausible than men, suggesting that it wasn't "proselytising by stealth" but just someone who had heard the language, perhaps at her or his church, and recognising the context of religion in the public sphere, substituting "public square" for "public sphere," because from her or his point of view, those are the correct words to use in this context. It's a special code, and not one that I was expected to hear.
And then L made a very interesting point, one that links rather nicely to the Vanity Fair piece on Sarah Palin.
To the rest of us she speaks incoherent babble, but she embodies "code". McCain didn't speak code. The listeners weren't sure he was "one of us" but they know Sarah is. The fact that she may be a "sanguinary perverter of the truth" doesn't diminish her "code"-status one bit. Then, in code, it's just "liberal media" out to "persecute" her. If you are captive to that framing, it all makes logical sense. To be knowledgeable is to be "elitist".
It's certainly a language that I don't speak, or even hear, and if I do hear it, why yes, I do look on in wonder and surprise, and with perhaps just a little bit of, well, contempt. Hmmm…. maybe not "contempt." "Condescension" might be the better word: let those who want to play with such language do so; if they want to play their silly games, that's fine by me, as long as I'm not disturbed.
But I was disturbed when I recognised that reaction in myself. I think it may be akin to the reaction elites had to Pauline Hanson in Australia – "she's just an ill-educated hick from Queensland, and she'll never amount to anything." But she did, and she captured an astonishing amount of the vote, for a short time at least. I am disturbed that I haven't heard an important nuance in society, and that I have simply assumed that no one could seriously buy into such nonsense (there's that condescension again), and I am disturbed that I have simply dismissed the views and self-understandings of a presumably significant group of people in Australia, evangelical Christians.
On the other hand, I do, very seriously, think that belief in any god is a nonsense. If you want to go off and do whatever it is you do with your god, then that's fine by me (you may recall that my version of feminism (scroll down) means that I am free to stuff up and make my very own mistakes, and I have a thorough going commitment to that freedom being available to everyone). But that freedom to go off and pray to your god, or play with the fairies at the bottom of the garden, or conduct devil-worship ceremonies complete with the ritual slaughter of cockroaches, or whatever, is entirely your own affair, and does not belong in the public sphere at all.
Which is why L's final comment was possibly the most disturbing of all.
There are other codes as well – I don't know it but the financial sector has its own vocabulary, for example. It's just that "evangelical" is so ordinary (and nearly there – after all, what is the difference between Rudd being the PM of "the country" or "the nation"?).
Feck! Even the Pope uses "public square." Here's the relevant paragraph from his latest encyclical, issued on 29 June 2009.
The French version refers to "la vie publique," and the Italian version to "dall'ambito pubblico come" (could some Italianate reader let me know if I have picked out the right phrase) but the Latin version is not on-line yet. My understanding is that the Latin version is the "true" one. Neither the French version nor the Italian version look like "public square" to me. I wonder if the Pope knows what he is saying?

Can you help me guess my breed?
Sam is a stray dog that decided to be a part of our family! He is so affectionate and after some research I THINK he is part Pit Bull, however, Viszla/Shepherd/Pharoah Hound all came up as well. However this dog is on the small/med size and looks a lot like a fox! Any smaller dogs that you can think of with a curled up tail that look like this? Any and all guesses are welcome! Here is a link to his body, and click on his profile pic for a close up of his amazing eyes!
He also has a slender face with a longer snout, light nose and light eyes.
He also has a white marking on his chest.
Thank you!!!!

I'd say most definitely German shepherd in there, not sure the cross. I don't see pit in him really. He is very beautiful though. :) I'm going through the same with my rescue pup now trying to figure out her breed. We are getting a wisdom panel dna test done. Hoping it comes up with some insights, might be a good option for you also if you are really curious. Good luck with your new pup! :)

as the other person who has answered he is part German Shepard hes not a Vizsla just by looking but if you take a very close look he looks to be a Vizsla in the snout looks of it he looks like he does have the lineage of the Pharaoh Hound he also seems to be a Black and Tan Coonhound but the most likely his breeding is of German Shepard and Blue Lacy. if you have the time i would suggest you go to this web site to look farther into it if you want
all you have to do is search the breeds you think he is and it will give you a very excellent description of the breed

am I the only one seeing Siberian Husky? Something in his bone structure and tail carriage, plus the way his coat lies, says Husky to me. They are not large dogs either, so a Husky/Pit mix might be a reasonable guess.

Not even told we would have to arrange to collect keys prior to booking. Also the apartment was not in a serviced block with any reception, just in the middle of what appeared to be a social housing scheme. Never again!!!

Senate Passes Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA)
April 30, 2012
On Thursday, April 26, the U.S. Senate voted to pass S. 1925, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2011 in a vote of 68 to 31. This reauthorization, sponsored by Senator Leahy from Vermont and co-sponsored by 61 bipartisan Members of the Senate, has stronger language to help protect LGBT, tribal, and immigrant survivors which gained the bill its 31 "nays" in the Senate and fairly wide media attention.
Perhaps of more importance in the field of homelessness assistance is another provision of the bill, it would provide particular protections for survivors in a variety of HUD programs. Current law provides survivors with protections from eviction and the opportunity to transfer in Section 8 and Public Housing. This reauthorization bill would extend those protections to a variety of other HUD programs, including McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance grant, Sections 202 and 811, and the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program, among others. And, if transfer is not possible, it requires HUD to establish a policy for how a survivor can access a Section 8 voucher instead.
VAWA was first passed in 1994 and since then has created a number of successful programs to help protect survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. One of those programs, the Office of Violence Against Women's (OVW) Transitional Housing Grants administered by the Department of Justice helps survivors leave abusers and access safe housing with voluntary support services to help the survivor and their family stabilize in housing. Providers who implement these programs often utilize a transition in place model that provides survivors with the security of permanent housing and a lease in their own name.
Now that the bill has passed in the Senate, it will be taken up in the House where there are three versions of a reauthorization bill introduced all of which have been referred to committee. A mark-up is scheduled for May 8 for the bill sponsored by Congresswoman Adams (R-FL) which is similar to a Republican alternative to the Leahy bill (S. 1925) that just passed in the Senate.

Nearly half of the eligible voters in the county went to the polls despite the bad weather and late development of the write-in plan.

After a day of talking to large crowds in western Wisconsin, Taft told his Eau Claire audience that "there can be no hope of a real change in foreign policy unless we elect a Republican president to di- rect that policy." The senator said his foreign pol- icy would be guided by two great considerations: "First, the protection of the lib- erties of the American people from, foreign aggression; second, the maintenance of the peace of the American people." Stassen, former Minnesota gov- ernor and now president of the University of Pennsylvania, an- swered in his speech a statement by Sen. Taft Monday night in the same hall that Stassen "seems to be going along with President Tru- man's foreign policy." Stassen declared he has been "fighting mistakes and blunders of President Truman's foreign pol- icy" for the past six years. Then Stassen charged Taft with voting against the Atlantic Pact and the Mutual Assistance Act and "advocating April 30, 1951, that American defense forces should be cut down, even though the Korean war already bad started."

Newbold Morris, President Truman's specially appointed cor- ruption sleuth, called on Atty. Gen. McGrath (his own immediate su- perior) and 595 other top Justice Department officials to submit de- tailed data on the financial status of themselves and their immediate kin. The questions asked ranged from stock market speculation and gam- bling to how many fur coats are now in the family compared with five years ago. 2.

This was an obvious reference to outburst against the "dis- eased miids" of senators investi- gating his part in some surplus tanker deals. Meanwhile, former Internal Rev- enue Commissioner Joseph D.

Dwight Eisen- hower had won an amazing 39 per cent of the Republican total in Minnesota's presidential primary election Tuesday. "Favorite son" Harold E. Stassen, whose name was printed on the ballot, got about 42 per cent. The drive for the write-in vote, most always difficult to capture, had been started by Minnesotans for Eisen- hower only last Friday, following the attorney general's ruling that such votes would count.

Stassen with many precincts still to be tabu- lated. 'ike' Glad In Minneapolis, leaders of the Eisenhower movement in Minne- sota attributed the surprising write-in strength of the general to "the magic of a great name and the wisdom of a great people." An official statement released for Minnesotans for Eisenhower by firadshaw Mintener and Sara Lou Mather, chairman and chair- woman of the group, read: "The magic of a great name and the wisdom of a great people have demonstrated their power again. "Gen. Dwight Eisenhower, facing the toughest political fight of our need of winning write-in against a 'favorite son' has received a magnificent expression in the belief that ha should be our President. "The people of Minnesota have proved that the wisdom of the people cannot be challenged and that the will of the people may not be thwarted. "Gen.

No Delegates Automatically Despite the fact Eisenhower made an astonishing showing against former Governor Stassen, the election will not automatically mean any national convention del- egates for him. No delegate pro- vision for write-in candidates is contained in the primary law. It appeared that only court action or national or state convention ma- neuvering could get any Minnesota delegates for Eisenhower. In the Democratic write-in vot- ing. Sen. Kefauver (D-Tenn) had a heavy margin over President Tru- man. However, observers felt that much of the Truman vote had gone to Sen Humphrey whose name was the only one printed on the Democratic ballot. Humphrey had announced he would turn over his delegation to Truman should the President decide to run again. No Minnesota campaign had been conducted for Truman, while a small, but vocal group had talked up Kefauver.

Matt Damon's Wedding Renewal Ceremony Officiated By Jimmy Kimmel
I wonder if Jimmy kept the jokes for the wedding reception, or if he brought some to the wedding?
Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana Barroso, haven't been married a decade yet but they've surely gone through a lot since marrying in city hall in NYC in 2005. (I'm just making assumptions since they have four kids.)
The two had a vow renewal ceremony, attended by their daughters and about 50 guests, at a five star resort in St. Lucia over the weekend. As we heard about a month ago, Damon rented out the entire Sugar Beach resort for a week at an estimated cost of over a million.

As his veteran spy drama Burn Notice is wrapping its seven-season run on USA, Matt Nix is readying a new show for the cable network. I've learned that Complications, a medical drama from the Burn Notice creator/executive producer, is nearing a pilot order. It centers on an ER doctor whose life changes after he is involved in a gang shooting. He is forced to explore his role in treating the cause of his patients' medical problems. Nix wrote the script and is executive producing for Burn Notice producer Fox TV Studios where he is under an overall deal. Burn Notice, which has been one of USA Network's top shows for its entire run, airs its series finale next Thursday. In addition to Complications, WME-repped Nix has expressed interest in pursuing a Burn Notice spinoff movie/potential series centered on characters Sam Axe (Bruce Campbell) and Jesse Porter (Coby Bell).
Medical Drama From Matt Nix Heats Up For Pilot Order At USA Network
16 Comments
I would welcome a spin-off series of Sam and Jesse from Burn Notice. Hope it would come true!!
Matt is a super talented guy — it's nice to hear this.
Sam and Jessie open a detective agency, but due to complications they end up having a boss. Played by Rosie Perez.
I can go a bit without another medical drama.
Love the idea, Sam & Jessie are good characters. Please don't spend 6 yrs doing the same drug deal show with pole dancers I thought Burn Notice cast and writers were better than that, Rosie Perez my dog walks out of the room as soon as she hears that voice.
Sam & Jessie !
Can't wait for the spinoff of Burn Notice with Fi coming in for the heavy duty jobs or when Sam gets new girlfriend who ends up being his boss.
Bring on the Burn Notice spinoff!!! WAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only if Jeffrey Donovan stars! Seriously, cannot get enough of that man on my TV screen. Though I wouldn't mind him doing something darker next…
I agree Jeffrey Donovan is addictive, I love him in Burn Notice. He was strong, take charge kinda guy and in the end his emotions were brilliant!! Please bring a Spin Off to USA!!
I welcome any spin-offs & prequel/sequels to Burn Notice. The series struck a chord with me & brought me around to many scripted cable series. Perhaps it was the bittersweet background dialogue and the friends close enough to die for you….I think USA TV will regret the decision to end a show with ratings that often surpassed NBC shows but that being said, it was a great ride. Burn Notice, I'll miss you….
I can do without a doctor show! Please start working on the Burn Notice spin-off, STAT! I will watch and support any show with those four in it. What an amazing show and cast, please dont make us wait long for more. I'm already in Burn Notice withdraw!
I would love me some Sam and Jesse, bunch of bitchy little girls. I would tune in every week. I can see them having adventures every week and a smile on my face at the end. Bring it on
Me too, loved the show already miss it!
Much as I loved the series, and The Fall of Sam Axe, I'm a little unsettled by a spinoff. Only because one of the really fun aspects of Burn Notice, was Michael's voice overs. Bruce did a great job with it in The Fall, but I don't know how well that would spin again in a series.
Loved the finale, would love, love a spin-off. Anything you can do to keep Bruce Campbell on television would be awesome. I also think the series would be a bit more light-hearted and probably cheaper to make. ;)
Already miss Burn Notice and I just watched the finale on DVR!
Chuck Finley and Tibbs aka Sam and Jessie would make a great spin off, comedy action those two have great chemistry + the finale burn notice set it up perfectly
Please do the Burn spin off with Bruce, and Coby. I know fans of all ages, which by the way someone was off on the age demographics, there are a lot of us over 39 that loved Burn Notice. Anyway, please do the movie, and hopefully series with "Sam, and Jesse". Miss the good morals, friendships, family, helping others, and the action, the promotion of people sticking together when times are rough. I'm 58, have never liked a show as much as burn notice, my husband also, Thanks, Jana

Thunder Road finally bested Mother nature. After rain forced 2 postponements, the 50th Annual Milk Bowl was off and running. But not without a hitch. Defending Milk Bowl champ Brian Hoar suffered a blown head gasket in practice and his crew had to replace the motor in just 45 minutes before the start of the 1st segment.
New motor, no problem. Hoar wins the first segment with Dave Pembroke second and Nick Sweet third. The second segment is where the milk bowl is won or lost. Pembroke battled back through the field for a seventh place finish, while Hoar was hampered by cautions, stuck back in 17th.
In the final segment, Pembroke could clinch if he finished inside the top 8, even if Hoar could win the final segment, and he almost did it.
A pair of cars picked up debris and went to pit road with flat tires allowing the 44-car to move up to seventh. Glen Luce holds off Hoar to win the final segment, and Pembroke clinches a 2-point win over Hoar to claim his second career Milk Bowl Title.
The taste of Milk, a sweet finish after a frustrating season.
"It wasn't easy but we didn't give up." says Pembroke. "Circumstances let us win this thing today. To win the pole almost a month ago and sit and think about that, and now to comeback and actually pull this thing off, the second segment was the key to it for us."
Pembroke, smiling, says "I couldn't ask for a bigger race to win for me. I won this race ten years ago and now coming back here and having it be the 50th, unbelievable."
Earlier in the season, Nick Pilotte clinched the Street Stock championship. Sunday played host to the final segment for the Tiger Sportsman division, and Bobby Therrien finished second to win the overall race and championship.

Alan Camilleri's contract at ME not renewed for 'personal reasons'
Finance minister Tonio Fenech confirms that Malta Enterprise executive chairman's contract will not be renewed.
Jurgen Balzan
26 March 2012, 12:00am
The controversial executive chairman of Malta Enterprise Alan Camilleri asked Finance Minister Tonio Fenech not to renew his contract which expires in mid-May, citing "personal reasons".
Contacted by MaltaToday, Camilleri said that he does not have time to answer questions regarding his position at Malta Enterprise and said that any questions should be sent "through the normal channels via e-mail".
Meanwhile, MaltaToday contacted the finance minister regarding the matter, however the minister said that he "does not have a minute to answer a question on Malta Enterprise" and said that the questions could be sent by email to his staff. Unlike other occasions, Fenech did not seem too keen to answer the question over the phone and duly, MaltaToday got in touch with a ministry's spokesperson.
At first, the ministry's spokesperson said he could not provide an answer "there and then" however he said that when a chairperson is replaced at one of the entities under the responsibility of the ministry, a press statement will be issued.
A few hours later, the ministry spokesperson contacted MaltaToday and said that "a few weeks ago, Alan Camilleri asked the minister not to renew his contract at Malta Enterprise, which expires in mid-May, for personal reasons."
Camilleri has been criticised by investors and other stakeholders for his performance as Malta Enterprise executive chairman.
Meanwhile, Malcolm Miller is being touted as a possible replacement at the helm of Malta Enterprise. Miller of the Miller Group of Companies and a major shareholder in the Maltese newspaper The Independent, would not comment when asked whether he will be the new executive chairman at ME.
On Wednesday, his own newspaper - The Independent - reported that Miller could be the next executive chairman. On the same day The Times, a competitor to The Independent, coincidentally carried a report highlighting reports on noise pollution at Millers's digital printing press in Luqa.
When asked what his plans for Malta Enterprise are, Miller said: "Who told you I will be chairman at Malta Enterprise?" Pressed to confirm or deny the reports of his possible appointment, Miller simply said: "No comment".
Miller has interests in printing presses in the UK, Italy and Cyprus and is widely respected in his field. He is also the managing director of the successful chain of Agenda bookshops.

This could simply be a case of him jumping before being pushed or else citing "personal reasons" in asking the Ministry not to consider his contract for renewal could be an indirect admission of failure and poor results whilst he was the helm,which are neither contentious claims nor in doubt I would argue.

This would be an excellent opportunity to split up the function of Chairman of the Board and CEO intwo two roles as it was before and as it should be. The board should oversee and guide the work of the executive - an impossible task when the Chairman and the CEO are one and the same person.

press wot button?
The pdc next to asc button
Sent from AutoGuide.com Free App
i thought that disabled it (or enabled the front sensors if fitted) the act of putting it in reverse should at least activate the rear parktronic...
has it got front sensors? if it hasnt i think youve bought a car thats had a front valance fitted off a car that didnt have it, or a console off another car or summat...
It doesn't do anything in reverse and it has front sensors too? Thanks
Sent from AutoGuide.com Free App
As far as I know the face lift brought with it front and back sensors as standard. The pdc button is for disabling the sensors. Since u say there is no led lighting on the button I assume a fuse may have blown. If my memory serves me right i once heard a story where one of the sensors was blown and kept causing the system fuse to blow. The guy fault found by disconnecting each sensor and putting one on at a time to see if it blew a fuse. Hope this helps.
On a e39 the PDC is activated by putting the car into reverse, the LED on the PDC button will illuminate to indicate the system is active, you can also turn the system on by pushing the PDC button. The system is turned of when you move above a certain speed or you push the PDC button and the LED turns off. Both front and rear sensors are active at the same time...well that's how it should work.
If a fault is detected the LED will flash and you will hear a long tone when you push the button or put the car in R...as you have no LED suggests the system is not working at all. Check the power supply fuses etc and the connections to the PDC module, its a white box in behind the one of the boot liners

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
We are looking for great fun dads to be involved in one of our Entertainment shows!!
If you are interested, and want to find more please send an email over to firstname.lastname@example.com, or give me a call on 0207 157 4209.
Look forward to hearing from you!
no more information.....is it a game or a reality show type thing......
as for dads.can they be in their 70's and be a runner and a dad..........do the children have to be a certain age group.........
do the families have to be involved or is it just teh dads......
are step dads allowed.....
I think a few more details might stop time wasting.....
hello! Great questions!
1. it's an Entertainment show
2. yes, dads of all ages welcome
3. Families might also be asked to be involved
4. Step-dads welcome
Any more questions - please do get in touch!
entertainment doesn't really explain much
terry and june were light entertainment..the japenese game shows are entertainment .so id big brother..............,. tiswas was entertainment......so was its a knockout.......
just about all TV is entertainment.unless its trying to be educational..........I haven't seen much of that on ITV
If families only might be involved then why the criteria for Dad's?
Why the requirement for running? If it was some kind of UK version of mantracker I'd give it a go.
Will it be as fun as Cheggers Plays Pop? I could always go for fast-track adoption.
I can understand the point seren nos is making - but calling Terry and June entertainment is stretching the point.
I am a Dad who runs but my son has asked me to stop because he thinks I may be killed by a seagull protecting it's young (happens each year!!! first time he has asked me to stop!!)
Now, I'm a Dad who enjoys running.
Problem is, I'm not fun - in fact I can be quite miserable when I run.
However, this whole Holly Willoughby dressed in lycra idea (perhaps with the Benny Hill music on in the background) would really bring a smile to my face. Come on ITV, you know it makes sense !
Could you not do it with Jess Ennis in a pair of Tom Daley type speedos rather than Holly Willoughby
Grendel3 wrote (see)
Could you not do it with Jess Ennis in a pair of Tom Daley type speedos rather than Holly Willoughby
Well I couldn;t be dressed in lycra at the same time
Can't help but feel this is now heading towards late Friday night on Ch 4 !
We just need a hot tub and a large vat of jelly
Yum sounds like fun!!!
seren nos - tizwas rocked!
i can't join in enetertaining as i have no kids, need to borrow some......
I'll sell you a couple
Did anyone actually email? Get more info?
You're good to go then KK as you had balls already
I emailed and got a reply that said they were after embarrassing dads, ie dad dancing. No mention of running!
So I would guess they want running Dads who dress up in 'amusing' costumes to run ?
No sign of Vicky Pendleton/Jenni Falconer or the Benny Hill music then? 'Sigh'

Feature Member -Navin323i and his Atlantis Metallic 323i
20 Attachment(s)
It is with great honor that I have the privilege of coming to you all today as the featured owner/car here on E46Fanatics.com
I still remember as if it were only just yesterday how back in the fall of 2000, simple internet search of "AC Schnitzer sport sedan mirrors" brought me to the online store here on e46fanatics. It is there that I met E46fanatics site owner, Tim and started my love affair with all things E46. Prior to joining this site I knew absolutely nothing about cars and having met and spoken to a lot of members over the years and reading up thru so many archived postings, I can proudly say I've learned quite a bit about E46's and cars in general.
It is here on our site that I first learned about carbon fiber and later realized that it's the same material that my mechanical heart components are made from and that are keeping me alive. I was born 38 years ago with a congenital heart condition that required a total of 5 open heart surgeries to correct. My last one was in 2001 exactly 9 days after the 9/11 attacks. I was engaged to my wife at the time and my doctors didn't expect me to survive since with each heart surgery you get more and more scar tissue which can make your anatomy unpredictable in the sense that scar tissue actually shifted the position of my heart closer to the sternum where they would have to saw it open and possibly risk cutting my heart with the saw.
But with a lot of love and a lot of prayer from family, friends, and temple priests, I beat the odds and survived my surgery, and lived to see the days I married the woman of my dreams and hold my 2 baby girls for the first time after they were born.
To show my gratitude and appreciation for life, I have modified my now twin screw supercharged 2000 BMW 323i with the same carbon fiber material that is keeping me alive in the hopes of inspiring the folks I meet at car meets/shows to live heart-healthy lives. So far my heart awareness mission has been a positive one by having met so many people, including one person who was so touched by my story that he decided to permanently give up smoking. I'm truly humbled that I could inspire him to make such a positive decision in his life.
My heart experiences have taught me not to take life for granted, to think positively always, and to face difficulty and adversity with a smile. Perfect example... this year has been a difficult one for me in terms of having knee surgery, having a testicle removed due to diagnosis of possible testicular cancer (turned out not to be cancer, thank goodness) and then getting laid off from my federal government IT job due to government wide budget cuts. I could sit here and cry/complain over what I've been thru this year but I choose to see the glass as "half full and not half empty". In other words I can proudly say that this was the year I had knee surgery to finally fix ongoing issues I've had with my knee, and how this was the year I survived a possible scare with testicular cancer and hopefully find a better job than the one I'm getting laid off from. It's all about staying strong and positive during the difficult times.
I am truly lucky to have the wife that I have. When I found out I was getting laid off from work, I was all prepared to put my BMW up for sale so that we could use that money if needed for house payments, etc. but my wife refused to let me sell my car. She knows how much my car is a part of me and my heart awareness efforts. She knows how sentimental my car is to me. This was the same car I brought both my baby girls home from the hospital after they were born.
In addition to the carbon fiber, my car and I share a lot more in common. Both my car and I started off as "slow" in the sense that my car started off as a 323i with automatic/steptronic transmission, and I started off as someone with low physical capabilities due to a defective heart. Technology made my car faster in the form of an ESS Twin Screw Supercharger and 5spd manual transmission. Likewise, technology has made me "faster" with my mechanical heart components and dual chamber electronic pacemaker. I feel like the "bionic man" and enjoy the times I get to go in and have software updates downloaded inside me, just like how my car had software updates made earlier this year when I had multiple issues that included non-functioning instrument cluster and non-functioning EWS module which rendered my car completely dead. I'm happy to say that all those issues were resolved and both my car and heart are functioning well within normal parameters.
Some of you may recall that my car was originally titanium silver in color. Last year I underwent a full paint color change to BMW Individual Atlantis Metallic which is a blue-green teal sort of color. Depending on the lighting conditions, the car will actually change color from a pure blue color to a teal color. I chose this color for the reason of color symbolism. Blue is symbolic of open communication and green (in India) is symbolic of the heart, hence "open communication about the heart" which is what my heart awareness efforts are all about. Teal also happens to be one of my favorite colors plus it really makes the carbon fiber on my car pop out more so than what the titanium silver did.
My favorite mods have to be the AC Schnitzer carbon fiber steering wheel (lucky enough to find one of the last brand new ones years back sitting in a display cabinet at their U.S. distributor), ESS twin screw supercharger, 5spd manual tranny swap, Vorsteiner edition Brembo 355mm BBK with the carbon fiber overlayed calipers, and of course the Atlantis Metallic paint color change.
I have truly enjoyed my time here on e46fanatics, both as a member of this site and a current member of the Europrojektz team. I have reached a point in my modding where I plan on enjoying my car as is and continue forth with car showing and my heart awareness efforts. I wish to thank all my fellow e46fanatics members for 12+ wonderful years here on this site, and I look forward to meeting many of you at the upcoming Bimmerfest East on August 25,2012 in Aberdeen, Maryland.
Nice story!
nice story, & beautiful e46! :thumbsup:
great story man! amazing car! :thumbsup:
:thumbsup: Great going buddy.
Love the color and the story.
What a fantastic story! I love all your pics - especially of you and your family (not to mention that the car is pretty awesome as well!) You have been through some tough, tough times, and it says a lot about your strength of character that you still have such a great perspective and attitude about life. I believe you have discovered some universal truths in your journey: all it really takes for a person to truly be happy is family, health and a great E46!
Best wishes to you for ever-continuing good health and for a long, happy life.
Love your car and your life story. God bless you and the US of A that makes such inspiring tales possible.
I have followed this car ever since I have joined this forum. I love all you did to your car, and the quality parts you have chosen. I wish you all the best through the rough times, and just want to congratulate you on being featured!
Amazing story & car! +1 point for humanity after reading this post. Thanks for representing the BMW/E46 community so well!:thumbsup:
