George Romero Can't Make The Zombie Movies He Wants Because of 'The Walking Dead' and 'World War Z'
Posted on Tuesday, November 1st, 2016 by Ethan Anderton
For the longest time, George Romero was the king of zombie movies. Thanks to the innovation that was Night of the Living Dead, zombies became all the rage, and the filmmaker has had a niche in the undead horror thriller world for decades now. Following the original film's release in 1968, Romero made Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead, and more recently he's followed those up with Land of the Dead, Diary of the Dead and Survival of the Dead. But now even the king of zombie movies is having trouble getting them made.
In a recent interview, George Romero reveals that he's been having trouble getting financing for the kind of zombie movies he wants to make, and he puts the blame on World War Z and The Walking Dead. Find out more below. Read More »

- All HSV Gen-F news
Holden?s HSV GTS has been spied virtually without camouflage more than two months out from its official unveiling by industry website GoAuto.
The first pictures suggest the new flagship HSV GTS model isn?t nearly as bold or aggressive as predicted, particularly given the supercharged 6.2-litre V8, producing 430kW and 740Nm of torque, under the bonnet.
The car was photographed at Holden?s proving ground at Lang Lang, a place with strict security in place designed to stop such leaks. According to HSV sources the car in the photos has only ever been driven at the Holden proving ground.
It?s believed Holden is investigating the leak and how the photos were obtained given the security in place, which includes a no-fly zone.
HSV has ditched the GTS?s bonnet scoop and seemingly borrowed more design cues from Holden?s VF Commodore ? the car on which it is based ? to presumably save costs.
However, it?s understood the top secret development car is not fully representative of the new HSV GTS. The wheels, for example, bear a strong resemblance to those on the VF Calais V, while the rear wing is expected to be larger for the production car.
The latest GTS sports HSV?s signature twin-nostril grille design. Air will also be fed by vents which run down the side of the front bumper, and are flanked by LED lights.
Drive learnt last month that HSV Gen F would bring a new look and a supercharged V8 which made it the most powerful sub-$100,000 car on the market.
With 430kW the engine has 32 per cent more power than HSV?s current most powerful offering.
The 105kW power jump matches equals the biggest power jump in the brand?s 25 year history.
The new supercharged V8 for the HSV GTS will even have more power than the limited run of HSV W427 models (each with a 375kW 7.0-litre V8) and will comfortably outmuscle Ford?s Falcon GT, which has a still impressive 335kW.
The 6.2-litre supercharged V8 is borrowed from the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 and is understood to have led to a major re-engineering program for the Commodore-based four-door to ensure it can safely and reliably deal with so much grunt.
The Gen F version of the HSV GTS is due to hit showrooms in August.

The Oregon Ducks boast one of the most prolific rushing attacks in the nation, averaging 329 yards per game on the ground. The player getting all the headlines, DeAnthony Thomas, is not even the best running back on the team.
That distinction belongs to Kenjon Barner, who has been the playing in the shadows for his entire career in Eugene having served as the understudy to LaMichael James for the past three seasons before he declared for the draft and now Thomas.
Despite playing behind James and not getting many opportunities to showcase his talent, Barner made the most of the limited opportunities he received. Most notably when he started for a suspended James in the 2010 opener vs. New Mexico, when he had 147 rushing yards and four touchdowns.
Barner went back to a reserve role when James returned from his suspension and did not receive many carries for the duration of his sophomore season.
As a junior Barner was still the top reserve to James, but saw a considerable boost in playing time as a result of his success on the field and an injury to James. Barner would eclipse the 100-yard mark on the ground four times, including a career-high 171 yards vs. Arizona State.
The junior season was full of personal bests for Barner, who also had to compete with the freshman Thomas, who ate into his carries and looks out of the backfield. Barner finished with 939 yards on 152 carries for a 6.2 average and scored 11 rushing touchdowns.
Each was a career-high for Barner as he was a key contributor in the Ducks' Rose Bowl victory.
Barner entered his senior season in 2012 and yet Thomas was stealing all the headlines, and it is not without merit as the electrifying playmaker is averaging more than 17 yards per carry and leads the team in receiving.
Barner leads the team in rushing attempts, yards, and touchdowns for the #3 ranked Ducks and it is Thomas who finds his name in the Heisman conversation, not the senior running back averaging 108 yards and two touchdowns per game this season.
The Ducks could very well win the Pac 12 without Barner, but to have a chance to win the national title against an SEC defense, the Ducks will absolutely need the services of Barner.
That is why Barner is the most valuable player for the Oregon football program this season.

The remarkable statement forms the basis of their legal defence that they did not underwrite the contract. ITV Digital went into administration in March owing £1.2bn after admitting that it could not afford to pay the £178.5m it owed the League for the remaining two years of the contract. The League is seeking to recover the money and has always claimed that, as the parent companies of ITV Digital, Carlton and Granada guaranteed the deal, citing as evidence their initial bid document.
This stated: 'Ondigital [as ITV Digital was then named] and its shareholders will guarantee all funding to the Football League.' But during preliminary hearings in the High Court, Carlton and Granada denied that they authorised this statement.
Charles Flint QC, for the Football League, said: 'It struck us as a rather surprising line of defence, given that the board of directors of ITV Digital, which authorised or must have authorised the bid, was heavily controlled by the shareholders' nominees and included the chairmen of both companies.'
Granada boss Charles Allen and Carlton's Michael Green were also directors of ITV Digital, whose huge losses were a constant drag on Carlton and Granada shares. The Football League last week sold the rights to its matches to BSkyB for £95m over four years. It will continue its fight against Carlton and Granada to reclaim the difference.Reuse content

Facebook Photo Frenzy
If you spend time on Facebook, you know that one of the favorite things for people to post are photos or videos of their dogs and cats.
Not being a big lover of such critters, it's hard to plug into why there is this overwhelming desire by so many pet owners to show the world their animals.
There are dozens and dozens of photos posted every day on Facebook of dogs running around and cats jumping around.
So when I decided to have some fun myself and post a comment about asking my Facebook friends to limit their dog and cat pictures to once a month, you would have thought I'd done something like that CEO caught on video kicking a dog.
Friends had names for me and suggestions for me and some expressed concerns that I was losing it.
After all, how could anyone not like cute little pictures of cute little dogs and cats.
The point is there are just too many of them. An occasional dog or cat photo is okay, but Facebook is suffering from a pet picture overdose.
What's next? One of those 10-question quizzes about what kind of dog or cat you would be? I hope not.

Chapter 2 - Evelyn
I don't remember falling asleep but when I opened my eyes it was light outside, there were mascara stains on my pillow and I was still dressed. I forced myself to get up and went into the bathroom to sort myself out. I live in a council block of flats; we have two tiny bedrooms, one poky bathroom and a kitchen that joins to our dingy living room.
We never used to live here. We had a big posh house with huge windows letting light in everywhere and a grand piano in the living room. Mum used to sit and play it for hours; I remember sitting listening to her play and just drifting away into the music. Dad got rid of the piano when we had to move. He said it held too many sad memories. It killed me to see it go, it was like losing the last grasp I had on her. I couldn't play I desperately tried to but it always ended up off key. Mum used to just laugh and tell me it was ok I'd pick it up eventually with her help. I guess I'll never learn now.
It was Saturday, no school, I always loved Saturdays. Me and my mum used to go out every Saturday when I was little. We went to theme parks and shopping and leisure centres. I don't do things like that anymore. Not since she died. It wasn't fair I had my mum ripped away from me when I was just 10 years old that was 5 years ago now. She died in a crash some drunk driver was on her side of the road. Me and dad don't do things like that anymore he seems to be as lifeless as a zombie since mum died. He just works and comes home and goes to bed. I remember him being fun and playing games with me. We used to be so close, we would go to the park together and play games and push me on the swings. That's all stopped now.
I laid back on my bed and stared at the ceiling. The sun was pouring through a crack in the curtains. My room is pretty tiny with just a bed, dresser and desk. The walls were a fading lilac colour and there was the odd poster of a celebrity on my walls. An average teenage room just like everyone else, not different at all.
I just laid there daydreaming for what seemed like hours, thinking about Mum and how she always smelled of roses and peppermint and she smiled all the time even when Dad lost his job…
My trance was broken by someone buzzing our flat. I rushed to the phone to ask who it was.
"Hello who is it?" I asked
"Hey It's well it's the guy who picked your books up for you" he laughed "I have something that I think belongs to you"
I buzzed him in and then he was there at my door, that beautiful boy. I couldn't move, I couldn't breathe, I stood staring at him at the door, I thought it was still my imagination but as he walked in he was so real. He smiled at me and his eyes lit up as he did.
"I believe this is yours?" he handed me my math book
"Y-yes thanks, but how did you know where to come?" I asked
"Your address was inside the cover" he smiled
"Well thank you again. Would you like to stay for a coffee?" I asked hopefully
"I would love to, but I have to rush off"
"Oh ok some other time maybe"
"I'll hold you to it" he chuckled slightly said goodbye softly and walked away. I watched him out the window and as the sun hit him he seemed to disappear. I couldn't believe it he was there and then he was gone. I came away from the window confused, wondering how he could just disappear. I opened my maths book, there was no address inside.

Do you have an idea of what Myles Gaskin's workload will be game to game? "I haven't really thought of it like that. He has a big group in the package. I think one of the big things is if he goes out there and is successful and kind of gets the hot hand he'll stay in there. But to say I have a set number of plays or anything like that, three series or anything, he's just going to play. Hopefully he's out there and he's productive."
How has Jomon Dotson improved? "Jomon (Dotson) has done a great improving with pass protection. I think one of the things that has helped him is he's become more physical, he's done a better job with his footwork when it comes to moving his feet and staying in front of guys. Him with the ball in his hands, he has very sudden speed and he has that long distance speed, where he can go the distance. Another thing I know about Jomon, he has pretty good hands so he'll have a chance to hopefully catch the ball out of the backfield and display that as well."
Has the whole group improved in pass protection? "I would say so. We do a lot with the linebackers, doing one on ones and things like that. It's somewhat of a realistic drill; it's a long whistle, the quarterback's not moving how he would in a game. But overall these guys have done a great job of really challenging themselves to get better at their technique and as a coach that's all you can ask."
On Rutgers "They're a good team. Those guys play hard, they're physical ,they seem pretty sound from the stuff that I've seen, so it's going to be a great challenge and we're excited play them."
On ball security "I'm thinking positive. I just want to hold onto the football. Keep it high and tight, keep the contact zone covered up with two hands in the open field. Keep it high and tight in the open field and run as fast as you can. That's all I'm talking about."
How close is the competition for the second running back spot "All those guys have been very productive. And all those guys have had a good fall camp. It's just going to be exciting. You know how it goes. It's that time of the year where you have to make decisions and have to figure out who's going to play so you can kind of get those guys the work. I can't tell you 'okay, it's this close.' I don't know what answer you're looking for there. I think all those guys have gotten better and as the season goes on we have to keep progressing as a group."
Was there any consideration to play Sean McGrew this year? "Not really. I don't know where that's at. I was kind of focused on just making sure he knew the offensive playbook. We did get a chance to kind of showcase him a little bit in a couple scrimmages that we had. To say 'for sure he wasn't playing or for sure he was playing,' at this point, like the rest of these guys, I just want him to keep getting better."

Air quality in Shasta County affected by Happy Camp Fire
REDDING, Calif. - Wednesday, the Shasta County air quality index went from good to unhealthy for sensitive groups, including children.
High levels of smoke were seen early Wednesday morning in parts of Shasta County.
School officials at Anderson Heights Elementary School decided to take recess and lunch inside because the air quality posed a potential threat to the students.
Third grade teacher Shirley Quibell said safety comes first for the students.
"We just want to keep them healthy so they come to school everyday. It is just a good policy to always err on the side of caution anyway," said Quibell. "So when we are alerted we keep our students inside."
Turtle Bay Elementary in Redding also took caution by allowing recess but limiting how active the kids can be.
"We always sort of go with what seems safest for the children. So that might change from hour-to-hour," said Principal Linda Lawhon.
Lawhon said her decision was made early in the day when the smoke was the heaviest.
"This morning actually the air quality was quite awful. It was even a little hard to breathe so we made the decision this morning that we don't want children to be very active today," Lawhon said.
Turtle Bay Elementary also postponed all after school sports activities until the air clears up.
Shasta County Air Quality District Manager Ross Bell said these levels are abnormal. He said they are visible because of the wind.
"That smoke level was higher than normal and it appeared to come from the Happy Camp Fires," Bell said.
The Happy Camp Fires are burning in Siskyou County.

Radiation Loss and Impurity Abundance during ICRF Heating in the JIPP T-IIU Tokamak
NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)
Ogawa, Isamu; Kawahata, Kazuo; Ogawa, Yuichi; Watari, Tetsuo; Noda, Nobuaki; Masai, Kuniaki; Kako, Eiji; Tanahashi, Shyugo; Toi, Kazuo; Fujita, Junji
Spectroscopic and bolometric measurements with spatial and temporal resolution show that large radiation loss brings about the decrease in electron and ion temperature and plasma energy. Regarding emissivity in a core plasma, the result by bolometric measurements well agrees with that estimated from impurity abundance and radiative cooling rates. Carbon limiters have an effect to suppress the radiation loss for Ohmic plasma, but is insufficient for ICRF heated plasma. The main contribution to radiation loss may be attributed to Fe impurity released from the ICRF antennae, the Faraday shield and vacuum vessel. By making carbonization, the Fe impurity is suppressed to a low level (nFe/ne˜0.03%) and the radiation loss is reduced to Prad/(POH+Pfr)˜20%. This clearly supported by the observation of Zeff (3.9→1.2).
Turnaround Schools and the Leadership They Require
ERIC Educational Resources Information Center
Leithwood, Kenneth; Strauss, Tiiu
"Turnaround Schools and the Leadership They Require" was commissioned by the Canadian Education Association (CEA) in 2006. The research, conducted by Kenneth Leithwood and Tiiu Strauss, was a two-year study of Ontario schools identified as in need of "turnaround" meaning that a significant improvement in school achievement was required. The study…
Quick profile-reoriganization driven by helical field perturbation for suppressing tokamak major disruptions
NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)
Yamazaki, K.; Kawahata, K.; Ando, R.; Matsuoka, K.; Hirokura, S.; Kitagawa, S.; Mohri, A.; Tanahashi, S.; Taniguchi, Y.; Toi, K.
Disruptive behavior of magnetic field configuration leading to tokamak major disruption is found to be controlled by a mild mini-disruption which is induced by the compact external modular multipole-field coils with m=3/n=2 dominant helical field component in the JIPP T-IIU tokamak. This mini-disruption ergodizes the m=2/n=1 magnetic island quickly but mildly and then prevents the profile of electron temperature from flattening. This quick profile-reorganization is effective to avoid the two-step disruption (pre- and major disruptions) responsible for the catastrophic current termination.

The Conservatives are under pressure to say whether they will allow state schools to be run for profit, after the new Education Secretary left the door open to the idea.
Labour and teaching unions attacked Nicky Morgan after she said that allowing schools to be set up by profit-making companies would need to be thought about "very carefully".
She told a TES webchat: "I think we are very clear and that the sector is very clear about the importance of not for profit. [For profit] is something I'm happy to have lots of further advice and emails on. I suspect that most people may not be very keen on it, but it's something… well, you'd have to think very carefully."
Allowing firms to run schools for profit is seen by some Conservatives as a logical extension of their academy and free school programmes. Michael Gove, who was Education Secretary until July, has said he has "no ideological objection". The Liberal Democrats claim they stopped the Tories from pursuing the idea.
The Tories will now be challenged by Labour and unions over whether they would allow "schools for profit" if they win next May's general election.
Dr Mary Bousted, general secretary of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL), said: "We are totally opposed to schools and colleges being run for profit. Taxpayers' money should go to support the learning and aspirations of our children, not into the bank accounts of those who seek to make a quick profit or bleed the system dry."
Tristram Hunt, the shadow Education Secretary, said: "Nicky Morgan has let the cat out of the bag, and parents will be alarmed that Conservative ministers are motivated not by improving the learning outcomes for all children, but by the prospect of using state schools to generate dividends for shareholders.
He added: "Labour is unequivocal in its rejection of the profit schools model that has done so much damage to education standards and raise inequality elsewhere. Nicky Morgan's refusal to rule letting companies make a profit out of our children's education reveals the true intentions that lie behind Cameron's programme for a second term in office."
A Department for Education spokesman said: "This is a complete distortion of what the Secretary of State said. She was very clear that there is a consensus around the not-for-profit model that is important and that has served the sector very well.
"As part of an open exchange with this audience of teachers she did say that she would be happy to hear from them if they wanted to make the case, but there are absolutely no plans on the Government's part to move to a 'for profit' model and it would be untrue to say otherwise."Reuse content

Falcon gives the gate a brutal kick, howling with fury.
"You bastards!" he shrieks. "Open this bloody gate or I swear I'll break it down myself!"
There is no reply, but Falcon swears he can hear Shadow cackling very faintly in the depths of the castle. He snarls and slams his fist into the hard wood, but all that does is drive splinters into his knuckles. Then he hears someone retch and he turns to see his friends looking at him with a mixture of delight and concern. Despite his fury, Falcon feels a warm glow in his chest. However, this glow is soon dimmed when he sees the state they're in.
Blaze have obviously not been kind to the group, many of them are leaning on each other for support and others are clearly in some pain. Falcon suspects many of them have broken limbs and there is not one among them who is not at least slightly bloodied in some way. There are dark shadows under their eyes and all are painfully thin - the bones of their faces jutting out alarmingly. At least they're all alive, he thinks, relieved. No-one's missing as far as he can see. He strides over and begins looking everyone over in turn. The greetings are heartfelt, despite their dishevelled state none of them appear to have lost hope. Even little Mary, looking bruised and dirty, manages to give him a weak hug around the midriff:
"We knew you'd come back," she whispers. "We knew you would."
Falcon smiles and ruffles her hair. Someone snickers nearby and he looks around to find Dane watching him, one eye swollen shut, one hand clutching his ribs and the other looped around the shoulder of another soldier. From the way he's holding his leg, Falcon can only guess it's damaged.
"How you doing rascal?" he says, wincing at the bruises and small cuts covering his friend's face and neck. Dane smiles a twisted smile, revealing several broken teeth:
"Could be worse. I don't think the guards took much of a liking to me. Think it must have been the time we tipped the shit buckets over their heads."
"Either that or the hell we gave them when they dropped the food in on us." says the soldier. "We didn't give 'em an easy time Falcon, of that you can be sure. Your friend here was something of a menace - I think he was a bad influence on the rest of us."
Falcon laughs, but it's a pained laugh. Evidently his friends weren't the most compliant of prisoners. And many appear to have paid for it. None the less, their faith in him and their sheer determination not to give in makes him so proud of them it almost hurts. Now it's his turn to return the favour.
"Come on," he calls out. "We'll find a place to camp, then we'll see to the wounded as best we can. We can plot our next move from there."
The group no and, slowly, they begin to limp back into the cover of the nearby trees. They know where they're heading, they've hidden in this area before, it's practically an old haunt, but Falcon can't help but glance back over his shoulder at the castle. Hang in there Eternal, he thinks, as if she could hear him. We'll come back for you. I swear it.

Ferrari T350s 04/02/2014
This review is from: Ferrari Logic3 T350B Active Noise-Canceling Cavallino Collection Headphones- Black
great sounding - well designed - extremely comfortable and light (for its size) set of cans ! sound stage is clean and very pleasing w/a lot of details - especially at low end / separation is great! compared 'em (head to head!) w/beats, diesel (would give "the cake" to diesel over beats!) and R300s (Ferrari as well) ! / to my taste - ?! - definitely better than monster / love the clean, almost like sitting at the concert feel (for cans they sound on par w/monster Miles Davis Tributes! (my favorite in ear phones)) for some reason R300s sound a bit louder! - but ! they have about 50+ hours (T350s a couple hours) - anyway - an impressive set of cans! maybe not as good as amped 1K+ sets (have checked a couple beyers!) !? but it will not disappoint!
requires batteries to operate! not foldable and you have to remember to turn 'em off (mine don't seem to go to standby?!)
Other Thoughts:
at $400 msrp - it's a bit off overkill! considering what you get - ! - fair price is about $200 - $250 / @ under $100 it's a steal! highly recommend! am not a big fan of Ferrari logo - but considering they perform well above a good set of cans in this price range ! - I will manage to live w/logo!

Herbert Smith has created the role of managing partner, with corporate partner David Willis taking on the position.
The move comes after Herbert Smith's executive committee reviewed the firm's management structure, deciding to complement David Gold's senior partner role.
Gold said: "Herbert Smith is a bigger, more international and more complex organisation than it was when I became senior partner three years ago.
"It is essential we have a management structure that reflects these factors, the priority we are giving to international growth going forward and the opportunities and challenges we face from the current period of economic uncertainty."
Willis is to chair the firm's executive committee and will focus on implementing strategy. Gold will take responsibility for the firm's LLP council and will focus on developing strategy. Willis will report to Gold, and will be an ex-officio member of the LLP Council.
Willis said: "Strong leadership and management is going to be particularly critical to our success in achieving the ambitious strategic goals developed by David and the global practice heads. It will also be essential if we are to retain the firm's collegial and entrepreneurial culture as we pursue further international growth over the next few years.
"I am confident we can succeed on both fronts and look forward to working closely with the partners to achieve our aims."
Willis' term will run until March 2010 to coincide with the end of Gold's five-year term as senior partner.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
A quick look at the week that was in the world of political dark money...
"He's not going to get grassroots support from individuals; I don't think he'll get organized support by the party or 501(c)(4)s and I don't know how you survive without that kind of support."
—Republican operative Bradley Blakeman, expressing skepticism about Rep. Todd Akin's (R-Mo.) chances at unseating Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill after his comment that victims of "legitimate rape" aren't likely to become pregnant. Groups including Karl Rove's dark-money Crossroads GPS have pulled their ads from the race (for now).
The liberal nonprofit Patriot Majority USA dropped $500,000 on an ad campaign targeting Charles and David Koch for attempting to "buy this year's elections and advance their agenda." But two can play the dark-money game: The web of groups collectively referred to as Patriot Majority has disclosed its mostly union and Democratic bigwig donors since 2006, but Patriot Majority USA doesn't plan to.
7 percent: The amount of television stations' revenues that may come from political ads, thanks to super-PACs and nonprofit groups, according to Moody's. TV stations are required to give discounted rates to campaigns, but those rules don't apply for outside spending groups. "It's like Christmas in September for broadcasters. And October," David Keating, head of the pro-Citizens United group Center for Competitive Politics, told Politico.
Between 2011 and this July, conservative super-PACs have spent $137.1 million, four times the $33.1 million spent by their liberal counterparts. The Center for Responsive Politics charted this year's numbers:
• Super-PAC Cash Still Favors GOP: Conservative super-PACs continue to dominate their liberal rivals in the latest round of fundraising.
• GOP Money Machine Choking Off Support For Rep. Todd Akin: Both Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS and the GOP's main Senate committee are ending ad support for Akin.
• Lefty Dark-Money Group Drops $500K Attacking The Koch Brothers: Patriot Majority, a liberal nonprofit group, says its new ads are the opening shots of a sustained anti-Koch campaign.
• An exhaustive account of how nonprofits claiming to be social welfare groups are pouring millions of dollars into the 2012 election. ProPublica
• No one seems to be taking the rule banning campaigns from coordinating with outside spending groups too seriously. Politico
• While his brothers were off playing the dark-money game, Bill Koch built himself a private Old West town. Denver Post

School leaders and teachers should decide for themselves how best to teach, and be given the opportunity, through questioning by inspectors, to explain why they have made the decisions they have and provide evidence of the effectiveness of their choices. Moreover, inspectors must not inspect or report in any way that is not stipulated in the framework or this handbook. For example, they should not criticise teacher talk for being overlong or bemoan a lack of opportunity for different activities in lessons unless there is unequivocal evidence that this is slowing learning over time. It is unrealistic, too, for inspectors to expect that all work in all lessons will be matched to the specific needs of each individual pupil. Inspectors should not expect to see pupils working on their own or in groups for periods of time in all lessons. They should not make the assumption that a particular way of working is always necessary or desirable. Its effectiveness depends on the impact of the quality and challenge of the work set. Pupils may rightly be expected to sit and listen to teachers, which of itself is an 'active' method through which knowledge and understanding can be acquired effectively. Inspectors should not criticise 'passivity' as a matter of course and certainly not unless it is evidently stopping pupils from learning new knowledge or gaining skills and understanding. When observing teaching, inspectors should be 'looking at' and reflecting on the effectiveness of what is being done to promote learning, not 'looking for' specific or particular things. Inspectors should gather robust evidence to judge and report on how well pupils acquire knowledge, learn well and engage with lessons. So who determines what? • DfE determine content • Ofqual determine assessment process • Awarding organisations AOs (exam boards) propose specifications, set exams etc. • Ofqual confirm standards and grades 04/10/2015 5 Big Picture KS3 + 4 • In practice, assuming that schools will be looking at GCSE as their end of KS4 exam, it makes sense to work backwards to ensure work covered at KS3 leads to KS4. Helpfully, there isn't anything specified by KS3 that is irrelevant for KS4 [apart from the phrase 'great literature'] • Therefore it does make sense for this presentation to look at KS3 first knowing 04/10/2015 6 that it is going to be consistent with KS4 KS3 Curriculum • KS3 – 'National Curriculum' Sep 13 (n/a for academies, independent schools) • https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/national-curriculum-in-england-languages-progammes-of-study • Very similar to previous requirements.

ALCAB carefully considered concerns that the content was too large or too ambitious. The panel recommended reducing the number of themes to be studied at AS level from three to two, and at A level from six to four. Some respondents wanted more emphasis on communicative language skills rather than intercultural understanding. In the view of the ALCAB panel this is a false dichotomy. Their recommendations are based on the development of independent communicators in the target language whose linguistic ability is integrated with an understanding of aspects of the society and culture of countries where the language is spoken. . Employer surveys demonstrate the importance of intercultural understanding for language users. In response to suggested alternative topics or works to be studied, e, ALCAB recommends extending the range of works eligible for study to include biography, as well as journals, diaries and letters, to offer a greater choice to students. It also agreed to publish revised indicative lists of themes, works and research topics. The revised lists can be found at alcab.org.uk/.

In budget discussions earlier this year, New Braunfels Utilities announced that it planned to decrease the subsidies paid by commercial electric customers that have historically provided lower bills for residential customers. To do this, NBU proposed a $2.50 a month increase, from $10 a month to $12.50 a month, for residential electric customers. At the same time, commercial cus tomers' bills were proposed to decrease. However, the rising fuel costs that affected customers' bills this summer have caused NBU to reconsider the proposed residential price increase. "We don't feel that it is the right time to approach customers w itll additional increases," said Dave Berg, a consultant who presented the board of trustees with a number of rate recommendations Thursday. However, NBU General Manager Paula DiFonzo said commercial customers still are targeted for a slight rate reduction. If the board of trustees and New Braunfels city council eventually approve the rate recommendations, NBU plans to sw allow the costs of not raising residential rates and lowering commercial rates. "We're going to absorb that and not raise that rate at this time," DiFonzo said, explaining how the utility could offer lower commercial rates while leaving residential fees untouched. "We're reducing our revenues." That will help reduce the subsidy commercial customers pay for residential customers, she said. The rate proposal was part of a larger package Berg presented to the board. The "Electric Unbundling and Rate Design Study" Berg presented to the BROWN See ELECTRIC/9A Treefrog Ed settling into new digs By Jo Lee Ferguson Staff Writer Treefrog Ed's fans were restless Thursday. Ow ner Karen McDonell and Manager Donna Lemley were inside, setting up toys and displays at their new location when two young, blond-haired children pressed their faces to the glass. The woman with the children smiled at McDonell as she opened the door and explained that the store was not yet ready for business. The children peeked around McDonell's legs and into the store, smiling and fidgeting w itll excitement. Treefrog Bd opened dow ntown on Castell Avenue a little more than a year ago. The store sells educational toys and books and off ers a variety of classes and special events for children and field trips for schools. The business closed its Castell Avenue doors just one week ago and will reopen Saturday in its new location at 249 W. San Antonio St. The business resumes its normal hours Saturday and will be open from IO a.m. to 5:30 p.m. The new location's opening includes a special event for children. "Dinosaur George," also know n as George Biasing of Dinosaur World in San Antonio, will present "Dinosaurs Galore!" at I p.m. Saturday. Cost is $3 per person. Meanwhile, McDonell and Lemley are working long hours to prepare the store to open. "Getting it done this quickly has been a challenge," McDonell said. But she said it has also been exciting to move into a new location that will allow the business to fulfill its potential easier than at its previous location. "That's why we have been willing to work so hard," McDonell said. McDonell has been involved in a number of small business ventures. Before moving to New Braunfels, McDonell and her husband operated an environmental lab in Lubbock. She also operated a business that sold printed educational material for children. Many people hear of McDonell's new venture and assume she was a teacher at one point, McDonell said. She has never been a teacher, but Treefrog Ed compiles a number of things that arc dear to her heart, including education. Lemley, however, is a former teacher. She taught McDonell's son in third grade. "I stole her away," McDonell said. "She certainly is an integral part of the success of this business as well." McDonell said she spent several years developing the idea for the business. Her son, Shan, provided much of the inspiration for the store and its name. "I'm just such a big believer that the most important thing ifl had to pick something that would contribute most to the See TREEFROG ED/3A Arrested H.S. teacher resigns from position By Ron Maloney Staff Writer BULVERDE — A Canyon High School teacher who was arrested Sept. 13 for possession of marijuana and firearms on the school campus resigned Thursday. The Comal Independent School District Board of Trustees accepted the resignation of Joel L. Brown, 49, Thursday night in executive session at its regular meeting in Bulverde. District officials declined to discuss the case. "It's a personnel issue still. It's in the court's hands now," said CISD public information officer Kart Hutchison. Brown, a special education teacher who worked in the CISD for about two years, was caught up in an unannounced campus-wide sweep when a drug-sniffing dog alerted on his vehicle, which was parked in a faculty parking lot. Sheriff's deputies were called in, and Brown allowed them to search his vehicle. Found inside were a small quantity of marijuana — less than two ounces — and a pair of weapons. The weapons were a loaded .22 caliber rifle and an unloaded . 12 gauge shotgun. Under state law', no one can have firearms on a school property. The drug charge is a class A misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $4,000 and up to one year in county jail. The weapons charge is a third degree felony punishable by two to IO years in state prison and a possible fine up to $10,000. Brown posted $2,500 bail and was released from custody shortly after his arrest. He was immediately placed on paid leave by the school district. Brown had worked in the CISD for a little more than two years. Before that, he worked IO years in the Hays County and San Marcos school districts. Prior to his work in Texas, Brow n was a teacher in South Dakota. Karen McDonell of Tree Frog Ed is getting ready for business at the new location at 249 West San Antonio Street. McDonell and her staff plan to be open Saturday, and ready for their first special event, Dinosaurs Galore! K. JESSIE SLATEN Herald-Zeitung Riley's closed?

When I was nine years old (in 1972), my Dad took my brother and me to get a haircut. Back then men went to barber shops, not hair salons. And the barber shop was a male only space littered with magazines such as Field and Stream. Not a People magazine in sight. It was a great place.
On this particular day, there was a big blonde haired man wearing cowboy boots in the barber's chair. He talked to my Dad and the barber about various things. Then the subject of his occupation was raised. He was a running back for the Denver Broncos and his name was Bobby Anderson!
Yes, they actually did have White running backs in those days.
I was thrilled as a kid to meet a Denver Bronco. And every since that day I became a Bronco fan.
Yesterday I saw a story in which a Denver Bronco, Elvis Demervil, was arrested for felony aggravated assault in Miami.
This is not the fist time he has trouble with the law. Previously, he was arrested when he punched a security guard at the Denver Broncos' practice facility for having the temerity to ask to see his id.
A couple of years ago Dumervil received a $61 million dollar contract. So the theory that poverty causes crime seems not to old true. Actually, crime causes poverty.

[Extensions of Remarks] [Page E554] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] SALUTE TO COAST GUARD STATION, PORT CANAVERAL FOR SERVICE IN SUPPORT OF AMERICA'S SPACE SHUTTLE PROGRAM ______ HON. BILL POSEY of florida in the house of representatives Thursday, April 25, 2013 Mr. POSEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the brave men and women of the Coast Guard Station, Port Canaveral on their reunion which is set to take place on May 4, 2013. I rise to commend the meritorious service and commitment of Coast Guard Station Port Canaveral Active Duty, Reserve, and Auxiliary personnel who supported National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Space Shuttle missions. Their service was critical to the safety of the public and the Shuttle missions. A special thanks, also, to retired Admiral G. Robert Merrilees, who has kept a watchful eye on the Space Coast and played a significant role in this celebration of service. On April 12, 1981, the Coast Guard Station, Port Canaveral began their service in support of NASA's Space Transportation Program (STS) program and provided that support for 135 manned space flight missions. Responsible for over 550 square miles surrounding the Kennedy Space Center, the Port Canaveral station managed STS recovery and safety missions for 30 years. These resolute men and women successfully carried out their mission to ensure the safety not only of the Shuttle, but also for over 200,000 viewers per Shuttle mission. This dedication and mission accountability would not be possible without the contributions and calculated efforts of over 100 personnel that supported each launch. Coast Guard Station Port Canaveral personnel played a substantial role as first responders to the Space Shuttle Challenger tragedy on January 28, 1986. Contributing 1,300 hours surveying 150,000 square miles of ocean surface throughout an 11 day mission and recovery operation, Station Port Canaveral deserves recognition for its stamina, professionalism, and commitment to mission execution. Their service was exemplary throughout their 30-year space shuttle support mission. I offer my sincere gratitude and thanks to Coast Guard Station Port Canaveral and the men and women who served active duty, reserve and auxiliary roles in support of our Space Shuttle program between April 12, 1981 and February 24, 2011. May the Space Coast and our nation always remember the service of these brave men and women. ____________________
