The Lexile Framework for Reading is a system for measuring 1) a student's reading ability and 2) the reading level of a book or other text. These measurements help students choose reading materials that are written on a level that is appropriate for their reading ability. (Students receive the maximum benefit and enjoyment from reading materials that are on or slightly above their current reading level.)
The Georgia Department of Education has adopted the Lexile Framework for Reading, and students receive a report of their Lexile reading level as part of their CRCT and GHSGT score reports.
Cobb's Destiny library catalog includes Lexile ratings for almost all items for which a rating is available, and the Destiny search features allow students to easily search for books in a chosen range of Lexile levels. However, many books have not yet measured, so Destiny users should be aware that searching for books within a specific Lexile range will eliminate from the search results many books that may be appropriate for the reader. (Many databases in Cobb Virtual Library also allow students to locate materials by Lexile level.)
Visit the Georgia Standards Lexile page for more information on the Lexile Framework and its implementation in Georgia.

Calma approach proves too timid - by Noel Pearson in Weekend Australian 29/8/2009
MIRIAM COROWA: Hello, I'm Miriam Corowa. Welcome to Talking Stick. After a year of consultation and planning, moves are underway to set up a new representative body - The National Congress of Australia's First Peoples to take Aboriginal and and Torres Strait Islander needs and aspirations forward. Enlightening us on this topic today, we have - outgoing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice Commissioner, Tom Calma, Dr Jackie Huggins, a member of the National Congress Steering Committee, and Megan Davis, director of the Indigenous Law Centre at the University of New South Wales. Welcome to you all.
TOM CALMA: Thank you.
MEGAN DAVIS: Thank you.
MIRIAM COROWA: Well, to kick things off though, let's take a brief look at the journey that's brought us to this new phase of Indigenous representation in Australia. There have been various attempts, particularly in the last 50 years, to create a national Indigenous representative body. First came the Federal Council for the Advancement of Aborigines and Torres Strait Islanders, FCAATSI, established in 1957. Its members included some of the most prominent Indigenous activists of that era, but the majority of its leadership were non-Indigenous.
PEOPLE CHANT: # Yes, yes, yes for freedom. #
MIRIAM COROWA: They lobbied for civil and political rights and most memorably, citizenship rights.
FAITH BANDLER: The referendum is on Saturday and it's important that we should have the maximum vote because the eyes of the world are on Australia. They're waiting to see whether or not the white Australian will take with him as one people the dark Australian.
MIRIAM COROWA: In 1972, the newly elected Whitlam Government funded a new democratic approach to Indigenous representation.
GOUGH WHITLAM: I want to tell you of a most important election that is taking place tomorrow. Nothing like it has been held before. All Aboriginal people in Australia are eligible to vote. You will be voting to elect the members of the National Aboriginal Consultative Committee.
MIRIAM COROWA: Some board members wanted far greater independence from Government, and more than a simple advisory role. This combined with internal tensions over the needs of remote compared to urban communities and a lack of funding and resources hampered its effectiveness.
SLIM DUSTY: This is your country music mate, Slim Dusty. Friends, there's a very special day coming up for you soon. And that is Saturday 12th November.
MIRIAM COROWA: The National Aboriginal Conference with 35 full-time members and state and territory branches lasted from 1977 to 1985. Again, it was a consultative body with no executive authority or guaranteed ministerial access, and it struggled to influence Government. The Howard Government took several years to formulate and legislate for a new elected Indigenous body based on more regional representation. The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission, ATSIC, began operation in 1990 with 65 regional councils.
STAN GRANT: After November 3, these people will have someone not entirely dissimilar to a local member to argue their case. If they want more money for housing, a new preschool, community vehicles, whatever, he or she will have to get the job done. If he or she fails, then like any other local member, in three years, they'll be voted out.
MIRIAM COROWA: For the first time, the Indigenous representative body developed and advised on policy at all levels, and had a budget to fund and deliver programs. There were great, though somewhat unrealistic expectations that ATSIC might be the magic bullet to solve Indigenous inequality in this country. Its complicated structure and limited powers meant public expectations often exceeded what the commission was actually able to achieve. Claims of nepotism and mismanagement combined with some high-profile criminal allegations marked the beginning of the end.
AMANDA VANSTONE: In fact, I've had people actually saying it's a good thing, that they don't think ATSIC's delivered what they wanted, they don't feel they have a voice in it, and they're prepared to look for a better way.
MIRIAM COROWA: After numerous reviews, ATSIC was effectively abolished in 2004.
REPORTER: 14 years after it was launched as a great experiment in Indigenous bureaucracy, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission, better known as ATSIC, has been scrapped by the Federal Government.
JOHN HOWARD: The experiment in separate representation, elected representation for Indigenous people, has been a failure.
MIRIAM COROWA: ATSIC was replaced by the much smaller and far less complicated National Indigenous Council. The NIC's 14 members were hand-picked by Government and had a purely advisory role. On its election in 2007, the Rudd Government did not renew contracts for NIC members. In keeping with an election promise, it began consultations for an appropriate model for a new national Indigenous body.
MIRIAM COROWA: Now, Tom, as the chair of the Steering Committee that's been setting up the new National Congress, can you tell me how this new representative body is actually gonna be able to work?
TOM CALMA: Look, it's going to be very different from what's existed in the past. And what we've learnt from what we've seen happening in Australia and internationally as far as national representative bodies go, we consulted very heavily across Australia and over 3,000 people either came to meetings or participated through submissions, and from those meetings, we've held a big workshop in Adelaide in March last year, and from there, we've then formed what our people have said they want as a national rep body. And what's interesting is that we actually followed Article 18 of the United Nations' Declaration of Rights of Indigenous Peoples on how a national rep body should be set up. And that's what the people want, and that's what we've tried to do. It's not going to take over the roles of any of the existing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations or bodies that are out there, representative bodies. They'll still exist, they'll still do their own thing, but what we're doing is bringing those people together to form a National Congress of 128 people, and it'll have a national executive of two full-time co-chairs, a male and a female, and six part-timers. And they will meet at least once a year and consider what the national priority should be in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander affairs so that we can then start to provide that advice back to Government, and also start to develop the relationship with Government so that we can influence the way policy development takes place.
MIRIAM COROWA: It's a long road ahead of us and obviously, we've also had some previous bodies that haven't necessarily succeeded. And Jackie, I know you were involved with ATSIC's review back in 2003, from your perspective, how is this new body going to be different from what's come before?
JACKIE HUGGINS: Well, certainly there are some similarities with it, but of course, there's vast differences in terms of the structure, the way that people will be represented, the relationship to Government, a whole range of issues that have been floating around in Indigenous affairs for years are still there, quite frankly, and they haven't moved. So, hopefully, the new body with a new structure, new people, fresh people coming in on the scene, I think is gonna change the face, the way that we do Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander business in this country.
MIRIAM COROWA: Megan, I guess the expectation is quite high out in community at the moment. It's been, you know, five, six years since ATSIC was abolished. How do you feel in terms of what you're aware of with this new body, how do you feel that it's going to be able to address the needs of Indigenous Australians in all our different communities?
MEGAN DAVIS: Look, I think it is a unique body in that, I think probably for the first time in decades, we've established a structure that isn't meant to supplant the work of all the different organisations and groups around Australia. So, I think that's really critical for people to understand - it's not that we're gonna have a monolith that then is the voice of all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Australia, that's not the case, so that's really significant to get across. The other thing, I think, is really novel and groundbreaking is the gender equity in the structure. And I think both Tom and Jackie, this is their great legacy. I mean, Jackie in the ATSIC review was alone in saying, "Look, there needs to be equal men and equal women." You know, women are 51 per cent of the population, how can you devise policy and laws if women aren't involved? And Tom picked that up as a Social Justice Commissioner, and I think if it wasn't for Tom, I'm not sure if it would have got up this gender equity in the structure. So I think that's really significant because that's really important in terms of bringing about a cultural change in terms of respect for women, and respect for women's voices in determining what our policies and laws should be. So, I'm optimistic about it.
TOM CALMA: Megan's modest also because we took a lead from the work that she was doing in her PhD dissertation about women's representation on bodies, and looking at ATSIC, and so, she can take a lot of credit for some of the direction we've taken as well.
MIRIAM COROWA: So, obviously, we've learnt some lessons from the demise of ATSIC, and you're looking ahead and seeing what examples exist out there internationally as well, I'm really curious though to ask in particular yourself, Tom, and Jackie with working on this body and creating it, how do you see that the relationship with Government is going to evolve with this new body, particularly, is it going to be quite independent and separate from Government?
TOM CALMA: Very much so. And our people have told us during the consultations that they didn't want a body that was set up by Government because we saw what happened with ATSIC - if Government sets it up, it it comes as a statutory organisation, they can also close it down. We wanted to be able to maintain that independence and so we've gone down a company limited by guarantee sort of line. You know, what we also, and this is a very clear difference is that we didn't want to take on a program and service delivery responsibility because with ATSIC, that was one of their major criticisms - they were blamed for poor outcomes in health and in education when they never had a responsibility for either of those, those two portfolios, that was the Government's responsibility, so what we've said is that governments, whether federal or state or territory governments, have a responsibility to deliver services to all citizens, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. And so, the role we're gonna take is to monitor that service delivery, but also through our networks, be able to then feedback up to Government about how effective those programs and services are.
MIRIAM COROWA: And there are also obviously issues surrounding the independence of the new National Congress in terms of it establishing its own funding. Do you think Government's commitment at this point is actually strong enough?
TOM CALMA: Um... well, if we look at the report, what we said in the report was that there were two lots of funding. First was recurrent funding that needed to take place to establish the body and to have general operational funds. We also talked about within the first five years and once the National Congress is established, that Government then consider investing 10 million dollars a year over a ten-year period into an investment fund. And we, as the National Congress, would seek to get corporate and philanthropic support and through other means an additional 100 million dollars so that by the end of the tenth year or eleventh year, we would then have a body that could be self-sustaining and totally independent to Government. And people have said, "Why should the Government give you 10 million dollars a year or 100 million dollars over ten years?" If we think that from the mining resources that are taken off Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land, and that we were the original owners, is in excess of 30 to 50 billion dollars a year. And so, 10 million dollars a year is insignificant in those real terms. You know, this is just a mere part of a compensation that needs to come back to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
JACKIE HUGGINS: And if I could say about the philanthropic and social corporate responsibility issues, I've recently been appointed to Philanthropy Australia board, and I know that there are a number of foundations and organisations, NGOs in this country, who are really keen on looking at Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander projects, and, really want to be forthcoming in terms of providing access and some more resources. So I think that's good. I think more than ever, we have an opportunity to tap those sources so that yes, perhaps one day, you know, we can be free of government funding.
MIRIAM COROWA: I'm also interested as well in investigating, from your perspective, Megan, as someone who's worked a lot in constitutional and international Indigenous law, do you see that this new congress will perhaps offer an opportunity in Australia to revisit issues like constitutional reform for a recognition of Indigenous peoples here in Australia or perhaps even the concept of a treaty?
MEGAN DAVIS: Yes, I would think so. Jackie was talking about engagement, and you look at things like the Treaty of Waitangi and treaties in Canada, it's all about engagement between indigenous groups and the settlers' state. And so, I think that that is one of the main roles, I would suspect, that the congress will play. But I do think constitutional reform is back on the agenda. I don't think it ever left, but I think we've probably got a much more amenable political environment for that. Currently, there's bipartisan support for recognition of Indigenous peoples in the preamble of the constitution. A lot of people find that problematic because they feel, well, the preamble has absolutely no effect in terms of interpreting the substance of the constitution, but nevertheless it's a start. And so, we have bipartisan support - Tony Abbot's on board, John Howard's on board, the Rudd Government's on board, so that is, you know, the beginning of a conversation I think that needs to be had.
MIRIAM COROWA: Well, obviously we're hoping that those conversations can continue with Government regardless of who's in power, but I know that some of the criticism that's been coming out about the National Congress recently from leaders such Noel Pearson and Stephen Hagan is that they don't feel the congress will actually be able to keep the ear of the Government regardless of who's in power. Do you think that that is actually gonna be a problem?
TOM CALMA: I don't think so, and I think I'd always challenge the nation of who's a leader and who's not in Australia. But I think the issue is the way that we've established it, it doesn't matter what government's in power, it'll be a company limited by guarantee, the body will still be in existence, that the real test is about how do you form the relationship with governments? And that's what gonna take the diplomacy, the goodwill, you know, the dialogue between people. Because as much as there's critics out there, I'd defy anybody to show any organisation in Australia that can overrule the sovereignty of Parliament. Parliament makes the decisions and the rules, there's nobody else that can do it. And so, irrespective of whether you're an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisation or a mainstream organisation, you can't tell Parliament what to do or what not to do. But you get effective lobby groups, and there's many of them around there, the majority in the non-Indigenous sphere, who are able to influence policy development, and that's what we need to do with this national body, the National Congress. And I think it can happen. We've seen already some significant advancements through the Close The Gap campaign. And you know, that was what came out of the 2005 Social Justice Report. It's now on the lips of every government of Australia talking about closing the gap, we have a national Close The Gap Day in March each year, we've got the NRL who brand a whole round of the NRL on Close The Gap. We're expecting over 700 national events this year. And that's the same sort of development that we expect that the National Congress will form. You know, a very respectful dialogue with all of our people and Government. And that can only happen if we all work together. And I think that's what has to happen, otherwise we'll be through another period of having no representative body, and I can't see a government in the near future, if this doesn't work, picking up another rep body.
JACKIE HUGGINS: And the beauty for all of us being involved on the Steering Committee was that this was a project that was Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander initiated, led and controlled. And I think in the future, we'll be seeing more of that because now I think there's a new wave of leaders coming through who will do that for us. You know, people like Megan, and other young people that are coming through. I have great confidence that through their backgrounds and watching and working with us, that they're ready to step up to the plate. So I'm very confident that that will continue to flourish. But I've been very proud to be a part of that process when usually it's what bureaucrats that have control of the agendas and the funding and say what you can do and what you can't do, I think those days are passing now for our people.
MIRIAM COROWA: It's obviously a new way forward and you get a sense that this is an organisation that is obviously forging new relationships and I'm just wondering also, maybe Megan as well with some of your experience you can comment, should we see the National Congress as being part of a wider strategy, perhaps we can combine it say, with seeking a quota of Indigenous representatives in the Parliament, and find ways of tying in different strands of power and influence to achieve what we're all seeking to achieve like improving Indigenous results in Australia.
MEGAN DAVIS: The first thing I'd say is that in terms of the success of the congress, the big challenge is to develop in the community a sense of ownership over it. Because we know as constitutional lawyers, that constitutions and legal systems, and political systems only ever work if people feel ownership. And I think one really important aspect from the information, the literature I've read on the congress, is the importance of rights advocacy and the United Nations' Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and other human rights treaties underpinning the work of the congress. I think that's a big step forward. And a part of that, I would hope, would be that rights advocacy such as constitutional recognition and designated parliamentary seats would be at the top of the agenda. You look at New Zealand and of course a lot of comparative examples have treaties, Australia's one of the only commonwealth countries who don't have a treaty - and the Treaty of Waitangi has enabled Maori to advocate for a whole heap of measures that give them a foot in the door that we don't have. And one of those is a designated parliamentary seat, so the Maori roll, where when you go to vote, you can either enrol in the general roll or the Maori roll, and the numbers of Maori politicians has just dramatically increased. I think the 2006 election, Maori are 14 per cent of the New Zealand population and they're 19 per cent of the parliamentarians.
TOM CALMA: But you know, we're talking 2010. We're talking about the Treaty of Waitangi, 1845, when Maoris where recognised as equal to the rest of the New Zealand population and had a whole range of rights. So, we're miles behind all of that. And so, I think that's something that the general population need to understand, that it might seem like a lot is happening at the moment, a lot of effort's going in, but in comparative terms to other nations of the world, we're still a long way behind in relation to getting rights recognition and an equal place in our society.
MIRIAM COROWA: So, I just want to ask each of you, if you wouldn't mind, where do you see the National Congress, but also Indigenous Australians' place in this country being in say, five, ten years' time from now?
TOM CALMA: Well, in the report, Our Future In Our Hands, it was called, meaning ours as Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, we looked at where we'd be in five years, ten years and 20 years. In five years is the establishment phase - people getting to know and understand and take a bit of ownership. By the end of ten years, we should be self-sufficient and there's a far better dialogue with Government, Government will be working with us. In the report, you'll see that we even talk about having the congress as a standing committee to Parliament. Within the current rules, that can happen. And in 20 years' time, we will have more members in Parliament.
MIRIAM COROWA: And for you, Jackie, how do you see things, if things go on track as you would hope, how do you see it looking?
JACKIE HUGGINS: Well, we know that Aboriginal affairs in our country has been proceeding at glacial pace most times, but if we lay certain strong foundations for the future, we can rest assured that perhaps in 20 years' time, our people will be receiving a great deal, better than what we have today. And I only need to look at my mother and her life and the treatment that she received, I look at that, then I look at my life which has been very much better, and I look at my son's life who is gonna take on the world. So, I would say for every Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander child today, it will be a far better life than their grandparents, their parents, and those who came before them will have. And I would hope that every child achieves to his or her fullest potential and to be proud to be a member of this very great country of ours, which, you know, just recently, we've celebrated Invasion or Survival Day at Yabun and places like that, for me still I can't bring myself to absolutely celebrate it with the wider community or other Australians except my little close circle. So I'd hope in 20 years' time that I'd be able to do that too.
MIRIAM COROWA: And Megan, obviously, you're someone who we see as being part of that process taking things forward over the next 10, 15, 20 years, what sort of hopes and expectations do you have?
MEGAN DAVIS: I would think that in the next five to ten years, ten years I think it will take for people to develop a sense of ownership over the congress for it to succeed and I think we need to be patient and accept that things do develop slowly and it does take a while for people to feel like they have some agency in control over an organisation like the congress. So, in about 20 years, we could have a serious conversation in Australia about changing the constitution to recognise Indigenous peoples' rights. I think, Australians are very conservative, and our constitution's very conservative, and I guess in a way our culture is very conservative too and I think it takes a long time. But the work, you know, of the social justice package, the social commissioner unfinished business, the work of the new congress, the new declaration, I mean, a lot has happened in a very short amount of time and we shouldn't lose sight of what Tom was referring to in terms of the colonial continuum, it's only been 221-odd years, I think. A lot of experiments, a lot of different structures have come and gone, and I think we're heading towards the right track. We know what we want, we want permanent and lasting recognition with a permanent revenue stream, which, you know, we would hope would come as a result of the recognition of the constitution. So I would hope, in 20 years' time, that we would have set that up for the future Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander generations.
MIRIAM COROWA: Well, there's certainly a lot to look forward to, and thank you all for coming on the program today and sharing with us your insights into how this is all working and what we can all look forward to seeing in the future, so thank you. Thank you, all. I hope you enjoyed this program. See you next week on Talking Stick.

Macro-Land: Playing with Light2013-07-05 9 Share Tweet
One of the great advantages of the macro lens is how you can manipulate focus. But that doesn't mean your target object always has to be in focus!
Perhaps the only thing I miss about decorating for the holidays is the lights. But hanging them up frustrates me like nothing else, so I don't much bother. A shame, as playing like this would be possible. Instead, I used the two solar LED lights near my front door to make some out-of-focus fun.
The result is something a bit unique, and it means you can play with light painting, combinations of colours (these LED lights cycle through different hues), and anything else that suits you.
But that isn't all you can do here. I had a lot more fun, actually, playing with the sky at dusk under these same circumstances. Taking away the sharp focus—in fact, running in the exact opposite direction—creates a dreamlike state. So many possibilities like this.
The whole point of what we do is to experiment, right? The versatility of a macro lens under these circumstances, letting you get so ridiculously out of focus, makes for some new opportunities in composition. Give it a shot!
Words and photos by Kevin Hodur. Previously calling suburban Chicago and Portland home, Kevin now lives and works as a writer on Upper Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula. Catch the final tipster in the Macro-Land series next time with "All the Things You Love."

Seeing leads to learning thanks to Oak Ridge High School's new mobile computer lab.
Science students now have endless data, experiments and tools at their diposal with the donation from the Oak Ridge High School Community Foundation. The mobile lab consists of 20 laptop computers in a secure locker on wheels.
"Other than the teacher's computer we really didn't have a computer for the students to use (in the classroom)," said Principal Steven Wehr.
Instead, science classes had to head across campus to a computer lab with outdated equipment.
What a difference a $28,000 donation makes. In Stan Iverson's biology class students using mobile lab computers got a chance to play with evolution – giving bunnies mutations and sending in the wolves — using a program set up online in Colorado.
"This engages all the senses and allows the students to interact and really think about what they're doing," Iverson said.
"Before, we were limited to just using textbooks," said fellow biology teacher Casey Rhyan, adding that the mobile computer lab allows teachers to research, build and plan hands-on, interactive lessons.
Physics teacher Eric Larsen said the computers help capture students' attention. "Now they can gather data fast enough to see things moving through the air, to see things falling to the floor," said Larsen, who also uses the computers in his freshman class to see the real data from a solar telescope. "We don't have to simulate it any more."
Wehr started working with the foundation at the begninng of the school year. The foundation has traditionally focused on capital projects, Contributing a lot of money to improve Trojan Stadium and the high school's gym. With those projects complete, the foundation created focus groups to decide where to contribute next.
Foundation President Scott Spriggs, who toured science classes with foundation board member Allan Priest and Wehr earlier this month, said the mobile lab had appeal because, "It embraces the use of technology and it's great that it's mobile so all the kids can use it."
"We were extremely fortunate to have the donors within the foundation and the foundation itself to help us," Wehr said.
The foundation gets its funding from football season tickets, scoreboard advertising, donations and a golf tournament fundraiser. For more information about the foundation or to make a donation visit orhsfoundation.com.

Living in New Orleans
New Orleans is a unique city with a harmonious blend of the old and the new. It is considered one of America's most interesting cities. Cradled within a crescent on the lower Mississippi River, New Orleans began as a French colony in 1731. It was then ruled alternately by the French and the Spanish until the Louisiana Purchase by the United States in 1803.
The streets of the Vieux Carre, or the French Quarter, are the site of the original settlements. They remain today essentially as they were laid out almost 250 years ago. Much of the original charm of the city is still reflected in its architecture, language, cuisine and unique traditions. From the Vieux Carre, the city spreads to other areas, each developing a distinctive culture, architecture and attractions. For instance, The Garden District is a magnificent assemblage of ante-bellum and Victorian mansions.
Tulane's medical school, teaching hospital and associated clinics are located in the central business district, within walking distance of the French Quarter, the Mississippi River and famous Canal Street and St. Charles Avenue. Not only is the area the regional center for health care programs, but it continues to be the hub for the city's commercial, cultural and recreational activities.
New Orleans is renowned for Mardi Gras, the world famous Jazz and Heritage Festival, a vast number of other cultural, historical and regional festivals, and for its superb cuisine served in restaurants ranging from elegant Antoine's and Commander's Palace to colorful oyster bars and neighborhood restaurants. The city also offers cultural activities, including the New Orleans Opera Association, The Contemporary Arts Center, Ogden Museum of Southern Art and the New Orleans Museum of Art.
Two large parks and Lake Pontchartrain are within the city limits, and offer opportunities for enjoyable land and water sports. A cosmopolitan city, New Orleans is perfectly suited to a variety of lifestyles. Many tourists' guidebooks to New Orleans are available in your local bookstore and libraries; we recommend that you look at them to get a bit of "the flavor of New Orleans."
To find out more about New Orleans history, and culture take a look at these web sites. There is an energy, a strength and a soul to this city. This is our New Orleans, our home, our history.

Those two offers give Miller a total of 11 now with it still being a year away from the time he will sign with someone.
The 'Noles and the Gators have now entered the mix and each stands out to Miller.
"I am from the same school as Peter Boulware and Michael Boulware, and both went to Florida, and they are good family friends. So, I have kind of followed Florida State because of them, so I am familiar with the program.
"I have talked to Coach [Billy] Napier a couple of times now too and I talked to Jimbo Fisher about the offer as well. I know they won the ACC this year and they are a good school.
"Florida's offer was not as surprising as FSU's because of my connection to Coach Lawning. I had interest in Florida before he even went there because of their 3-4 defense, so I am excited about this offer."
The 6-foot-4, 203 pound junior out of Spring Valley, S.C. has some big-time offers and he now has a list of eight that are high on his list.
"I do not have any type of order or anything yet, but Alabama, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Mississippi State, North Carolina, and South Carolina are the top schools in my head.
"I do not have offers from Alabama and Georgia yet, but I think one is coming from Alabama and Georgia is showing a lot of interest. Coach [Chris] Rumph from Alabama told me it is only a mater of time before the offer from them is official."
The schools that made the list for this four-star outside linebacker made it for different reasons.
"I like some schools because of their defensive schemes, because of their coaches, because how they do things, and for many different reasons. I am looking at a lot of different things," he said.
One thing Miller has made clear to Scout is that he is no lock to stay in his home state college.
"A lot of people think because my dad (Corey Miller) played for South Carolina that I am definitely going there, but that is not true. I am going to make the best decision for me and he is very supportive of that. There is a good chance that I leave the state right now."
He could announce his decision in the coming months.
"I think I will be committed to someone by the summer. I will visit some schools soon and as soon as I know, I will make my decision. I want to get it out of the way so I can focus on my school. I will definitely be committed before my senior year."
Miller finished 2012 with 126 tackles, 21 tackles for loss, 14 sacks, 4 forced fumbles, 3 fumble recoveries, and 1 defensive touchdown.
He is the No. 4 outside linebacker in the country on Scout.

Attack on Sunni city unites Shiite community
Page Tools
Shiite cleric Hadi Jawad was tortured by the same kind of Saddam Hussein loyalists now facing fierce attack by US forces in Fallujah - but he still condemns the offensive to capture the Sunni Muslim city from rebels.
"Iraq cannot afford for the Shiites to gloat and the Americans will not find support for attacks they think will compensate for their mismanagement of Iraq," said the 40-year-old cleric, who lost half his jaw in the torture.
"The siege of Fallujah must be lifted and the killing of Iraqis, whether they are Shiite or Sunni, must stop," said Mr Jawad, a custodian of the al-Kazimain shrine, where two of the 12 Imams are buried. Iraq's majority Shiites, marginalised for years, are expressing solidarity with Fallujah residents, partly because they don't want to play into the hands of radical Sunni fundamentalists, who they say want civil war.
Ali al-Ubaidi, an independent Shiite scholar, said how the Shiites dealt with Fallujah and the aftermath would be crucial. "There is a streak of indifference that has tainted the reputation of the Shiites throughout modern Iraqi history," he said.
Mr Ubaidi said that although Ayatollah al-Sistani, Iraq's most influential Shiite cleric, had not condemned the Fallujah offensive, Shiite leaders such as Jawad al-Khalisi and figures in the Sadr movement had.
Mr Khalisi is a respected cleric whose grandfather was one of the leaders of the 1920 Shiite uprising against British rule. Iraqi Shiites have been divided since.
Iranian-born Mr Sistani, who believes the clergy should stay out of politics, also refused to condemn US attacks on the holy Shiite city of Najaf in August to defeat followers of nationalist cleric Muqtada al-Sadr. But his intervention ended the fighting.
Scores of Shiites, from clerics to ordinary people, have been killed in and around Baghdad in the past few months by what officials describe as fanatic Salafi groups. Salafis are fundamentalist groups ideologically close to the strict Wahhabi sect that has been historically allied with Saudi Arabia's Ibn Saud monarchy.
The siege of Fallujah must be lifted and the killing of Iraqis... must stop. - Hadi Jawad, Shiite cleric

Just for Fun -> Learn Magic Tricks -> Card Tricks -> Flesh Grip Card Sleight
Flesh Gripby Jean Hugard
The loose flesh at the root of the thumb can be used to maintain a break after the pack has been cut, doing away with the necessity of inserting the tip of the left little finger, in this manner:
Pick up the cut and put it in the left hand, well down on the palm, and squeeze the left side of the packet tightly against the fleshy root of the thumb by pressing the second, third and fourth fingers against the right hand side of the cards.
In putting the other half of the pack on top it will be found an easy matter to clip a fold of the skin between the two packets.
The outer ends of the cards may now be tapped perfectly square, the first joints of the left fingers are all on top of the deck so that it can be shown quite freely and the bottom ends of the cards can be tapped on the table without the least danger of losing the break.
This can be found instantly by the right thumb tip by feel alone and the deck split at that point for a riffle shuffle, 'thus avoiding the pass; or the break can be opened a little, the tip of the left little finger inserted and the pass made in the usual way; or the pack may be picked up for an overhand shuffle, the break being held with the tip of the thumb, the cards above the break being then shuffled off and the balance thrown on top.
Again, the flesh grip can be secured after the insertion of the little finger tip, following the replacing of a chosen card.
The tapping of the ends of the deck and the position of the left fingers on top will convince the most skeptical spectator that his card has really been lost in the deck.

This Date in Knicks History: August 8
Ewing wins Dream Team gold in '92 Olympics
Editor's note: This story originally appeared one year ago on KnicksNow.com. You can follow the author, Ben Horney, on Twitter @BenHorney.
Twenty two years ago today, on August 8, 1992, Knicks legend Patrick Ewing and the Dream Team cemented themselves in the history books with a 32-point victory over Croatia to take home the gold in Barcelona.
While the result was never really in question -- the Dream Team beat their opponents by an average of nearly 44 points per game throughout the tournament -- the Gold Medal game solidified the team's legacy once and for all as the greatest collection of NBA talent ever assembled. A large part of their dominance was an insane front line, featuring Ewing, David Robinson, Karl Malone and Charles Barkley, all in their primes.
Looking back, it's difficult to comprehend that the 32-point beat down of Croatia in the Gold Medal game was actually the closest match of the tournament for the Dream Team. As a matter of fact, they were only up by a single point at the end of the first quarter, and actually found themselves losing, 25-23, early in the second. But the Dream Team pulled away soon after, outscoring Croatia by a combined 33 points in the second and third quarters.
Ewing, who averaged 11.8 points and 5.2 rebounds per game for the tournament, stepped it up in the Gold Medal match; his 15 points (on 6-of-10 shooting) was third highest on the team, behind only Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley. He also grabbed six rebounds and added a steal in just over 21 minutes of play. Overall, Ewing shot a scintillating 62 percent from the field in the summer of '92. He also ended the tournament with 10 total blocks (second on the team, behind only Robinson's 11) and six steals.
With the victory, Ewing became a two-time gold medalist -- he had also taken home the gold at the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, while still a Georgetown Hoya. 1992, however, will forever be the year that the United States flexed their muscles to the rest of the world, as regular season NBA foes came together to create an unstoppable team.
"It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience," Ewing proudly recalled last summer. "We all sacrificed our abilities to become a great team. When you're playing in the Olympics, you're playing for the country. You have the whole country behind you."

So, just for arguments sake, if the EWS is tied to the key, how people get new keys for their e46 and program the keys themselves
changing the ignition lock cylinder?
edit 1:
Okay, I talked to a friend in South Bay who's been tinkering with the DME. He said that the key and ignition lock core can be reprogrammed through the EWS module. He's not sure how to do it himself yet, but it can be done. Whether or not its worth it will depend on the price.
So, where we're at is that it IS possible, in theory, to hook up an MS43 to the M52TU wiring harness with some manipulation. I think as soon as we verify all of the sensors, servos, solenoids, and motors attached to the MS42 are the same as the ones attached to the MS43 then all thats left is to try it out!
edit 2:
Okay, I decided to help out Hornung418 a bit a sift through the part numbers on realoem.com. I came across something interesting about the "Suction Jet Pump". It looks like its referring to the fuel pump, but whatever it is, its located in the fuel delivery unit at the tank:
Sucking Jet Pump Valve
Also, I noticed that the secondary air pump already has a pin assigned to it on Module 4 pin 3. For the Module 4 connection, both the MS42 and MS43 already match up so no modifications need to be made. But for some reason theres a second connector going to the secondary air pump on module 3 pin 52, which the MS43 requires. wtf...
edit 3:
I figured out what the Suction Jet Pump Valve is and what it does. Its for the brake booster. Heres a description of what it does:
Suction Jet Pump Valve Description
. The description says that this part was only used on the MS42 DME so it looks like we can just remove it. That saves us another step and makes the MS43 more compatible! Yay!

NEW DELHI, India — Indian police and intelligence agencies continue to scramble to develop leads in Thursday's Hyderabad bombing attack, which claimed 16 lives, while leaving more than a hundred injured.
In not-for-attribution conversations, the authorities have pointed fingers at the Indian Mujahideen, a local insurgency group allegedly backed by the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT).
The most definitive reports so far suggest police are hunting two alleged Indian Mujahideen members, Asadullah Akhtar alias Tabrez, and Waqas alias Ahmed, who were arrested previously for their supposed involvement in a series of low-intensity blasts in Pune, Maharashtra, last year.
Meanwhile, a native of Hyderabad and a Somali national were arrested on Saturday while attempting to cross the border into Nepal, raising suspicion of some possible involvement in the attacks, according to India's The Hindu newspaper. But police swiftly dismissed any connection.
State president of the BJP party, G. Kishan Reddy, said he received a letter on Saturday threatening another attack, The Hindu reported. Reddy told the media a postcard was sent to him in the name of the LeT, claiming that the next target would be Begum Bazar.

On the one hand, local Muslims allege the authorities have arbitrarily rounded up young people for questioning, as happened after similar bombings in 2007. But on the other, police sources say they are being much more circumspect about identifying potential suspects.
India Today cited anonymous sources saying Indian authorities have contemplated seeking help from the United States' Federal Bureau of Investigation to process the CCTV footage gathered from the site of the bombings.
China on Monday condemned the bombings, while conveying its sympathies to the victims.
"China condemns this bomb attack and expresses sincere sympathies to the Indian government, Indian people, families of the victims and the injured," said China's Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying, according to The Economic Times.

While this is certainly a non-life-threatening problem, this type of emotional fluctuation is a major obstruction to productivity and creativity in the workplace and in one's personal life. Seasonal depression (aka Seasonal Affective Disorder) is very real disease and influences approximately 6% of Americans according to the American Academy of Family Physicians.
To solve this problem, SEQINETIC, a Denmark-based team of engineers, created a pair of concept sunglasses for this largely untreated consumer base. Since many authorities point to light therapy (or balanced spectrum lighting) as a way to neutralize the effects of seasonal depression, SEQINETIC's product–which has now been successfully funded on Kickstarter–provides a more efficient and portable way to combat the lethargy that people naturally feel when wintertime comes around. The product design is quite straight-forward: a built-in reflector bounces soft white light around the user's eyes. The glasses therefore improve the user's mood by reflecting an artificial "daylight" in the top portion of the user's area of vision. This comforting light is generated by six LEDs, which are 100% UV-free and powered by two AAA batteries.
Check out the Kickstarter pitch video below:
The implications of this work are considerable, for once we take into account how much productivity is wasted when a working individual feels depressed, this design becomes a huge money-saver. In addition, solving a serious medical concern using an innovative device, rather than a pill or other common treatment for depression, is potentially more sustainable and certainly less invasive.

The makers of a film about the 2011 raid that killed Osama bin Laden say President Obama won't be a character in it.
"There's no political agenda in the film -- full stop -- period," says Mark Boal, the screenwriter for Zero Dark Thirty, which is set for release in December.
"A lot of people are going to be surprised when they see the film," Boal told Entertainment Weekly." For example, the president is not depicted in the movie. He's just not in the movie."
Instead, Zero Dark Thirty will focus on military and intelligence officials involved in the raid that killed the al-Qaeda leader.
Director Kathyrn Bigelow, who like Boal won an Oscar for the 2008 film The Hurt Locker, explained the title of their next project to Entertainment Weekly: "It's a military term for 30 minutes after midnight, and it refers also to the darkness and secrecy that cloaked the entire decade long mission."
EW also provided a trailer for Zero Dark Thirty.
From the Entertainment Weekly report:
It's already the year's most controversial movie, though almost no one knows anything about it.
Zero Dark Thirty, a chronicle of the decade-long hunt for al-Qaeda terrorist leader Osama bin Laden after the 9/11 attacks, began generating partisan critiques before even a frame of film was shot. Now director Kathryn Bigelow and screenwriter Mark Boal are finally opening up -- though they remain extremely guarded -- in their first interviews about the project.
Zero Dark Thirty will be an unusual film in that the climax of the story is already widely known and it's the set-up that remains mysterious. Bin Laden was killed on May 2, 2011 by the U.S. Navy's elite SEAL Team Six, but what remains largely unknown is the true back story behind the raid, and how intelligence agencies and the military connected the dots that eventually brought them to that compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
"I'm fascinated by people who dedicate themselves to really difficult and dangerous things for the greater good," Boal said in a phone interview. "I think they're heroic and I'm intrigued by them. I'm fascinated by the world they inhabit. I personally want to know how they caught bin Laden. All I can do is hope that it interests other people."
The trailer is highly stylized, emphasizing the secrecy of the story with its use of the kind of bars used to black out information on redacted classified documents. ...
The teaser also suggests a grittier, more deadly, boots-on-the-ground pursuit of information, rather than a drama about decisions made at the top in Washington.
This has been the primary source of controversy: Opponents of President Barack Obama have been eager for the public to avoid any reminders this election year that the Commander-in-Chief gave that order authorizing the raid that finally took down the terrorist mastermind.
The makers of Zero Dark Thirty insist their film is a study of the unsung heroes who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to take down bin Laden, not a celebration of Obama's decision.

WOOSTER -- Mayvene W. Hartel, 94, of Wooster, went home to be with the Lord Thursday morning, Nov. 8, 2012, at Wayne Manor in Wooster, surrounded by her loving family.
Services will be Saturday at 1 p.m. at Apple Creek United Methodist Church, with pastor Samuel Troyer officiating. Interment will be in Apple Creek Cemetery.
Visitation will be one hour prior (noon-1 p.m.) to the services at the church. Custer-Glenn Funeral Home, 2284 Benden Drive, Wooster, is assisting the family. Words of comfort may be shared with the family at www.custerglenn.com.
Memorial contributions may be made in lieu of flowers to Apple Creek United Methodist Church, 269 W. Main St., Apple Creek 44606; or Apple Creek Fire & Rescue Department, in care of Custer-Glenn Funeral Home.
She was born March 15, 1918, in Wessington, S.D., to the Rev. Edward and Clara (Pickering) Spence and married John M. Hartel in Apple Creek in 1936. He went home to be with the Lord in 1968.
Mayvene had been an Apple Creek resident since 1934, and was a nurses aide for the former Apple Creek Developmental Center, retiring after five years of service. She was a member of Apple Creek United Methodist Church, where she was involved with the United Methodist Church Women's Society and a member of the Apple Creek Senior Citizen's Group.
She loved gardening, especially growing flowers, and enjoyed playing cards. She was fond of her feline companions throughout the years.
Surviving are sons, Michael (Pat) Hartel and Durbin (Carmen) Hartel, both of Wooster, Dudley (Louise Wicker) Hartel of Comer, Ga., and Patrick (Anne) Hartel of Newcomerstown; grandchildren, Troy, Kim, Ryan, John Michael II, Andrew W., Brady N., Beth and Brandi; and great-grandchildren, Maizy, Josie, John Michael III, Justin and Sidney.
In addition to her loving husband, she was preceded in death by parents; brothers, Roderick and Ed Spence and sisters, Eudora Greene and Edna Miller.
Bran, Travis, Sid and the rest of the family:
When we lose someone we love, it seems that time stands still.
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, we may not understand why they left this earth so soon, or why they left before you were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, you begin to remember not just that she died, but that she lived. And that her life gave you all memories too beautiful to forget. To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathy on the passing of your loved one.
You're all in our thoughts and prayers.

Lt.-Gov. Frank Lewis and Premier Robert Ghiz present the Gold Cup and Saucer trophies to trainer Rene Allard and driver Brad Forward following the $75,000 Sobey's Gold Cup and Saucer race Saturday night at Red Shores at the Charlottetown Driving Park.

The biggest horse race on P.E.I. lived up to its hype once again this year.
A successful Old Home Week was capped off Saturday night with 55th running of the $75,000 Sobey's Gold Cup and Saucer, a race that didn't disappoint any spectators at the Charlottetown Driving Park.
Lee Drake, marketing and sales manager for Red Shores Racetrack and Casino, said that numbers from the event, both wagers and attendance, would not be fully known until later this week.
However, he said Saturday night's crowd was "probably the biggest" officials had ever seen.
"It started early, people getting to their seats, and it never stopped," said Drake. "It certainly lived up to all the hype of the big race."
The race went down to the wire, with a two-horse breakaway at the end between Bigtown Hero and Wazzup Wazzup.
Bigtown Hero, driven by Brad Forward, ultimately won the race and, with a time of 1:50:04, equaled a track and Canadian record.
"We had the best field ever assembled for the cup and came down to an exciting finish," said Drake. "We couldn't have asked for anything better."
Apart from the sheer speed, Drake said the race was also engaging for a behind-the-scenes storyline.
The horse's trainer Renee Allard had been trying to win the Gold Cup and Saucer since 2009.
Drake also said that Forward had been sitting on his couch in Newfoundland just a week ago when he first got the call asking him to race this weekend.
Both of Forward's parents were also there to see the win, with his father arriving at the Charlottetown airport just 15 minutes before the race began.
"Stories like that, nights like that... it's quite memorable," said Drake.
While the harness racing programs held during the week have long been staples of the celebration, the provincial exhibition offers much, much more.
A range of activities, including live music, buskers, agricultural competitions and livestock shows, as well as the smorgasbord of exhibition rides and family fun, kept Islanders and tourists alike busy for the 10 days of the festival.
While the rainier-than-usual week led to some downtime throughout the exhibition, that was one of the few snags of the week.
Even during a downpour Friday morning, crowds gathered along Charlottetown's streets to watch the approximately 100 entries participating in the Gold Cup Parade.
"Apart from the rain, all-in-all it was a successful Old Home Week," said Drake. "We were very pleased with the week, especially Gold Cup night."

Kinshasa (AFP) April 18, 2014
The Belgian director of a famed national park in the Democratic Republic of Congo who was shot this week by unknown attackers was evacuated to Nairobi on Friday, a local official said.
Emmanuel de Merode, head of the Virunga National Park in the DR Congo's war-scarred North Kivu province, was shot in the abdomen and chest on Tuesday as he travelled alone by jeep from the regional capital Goma to a nearby conservation centre.
His condition was thought to be stable as he was flown out of Goma on Friday for the Kenyan capital.
"I believe he has been evacuated just to recuperate as his condition had stabilised in Goma," the governor of North Kivu province, Julien Paluku, told AFP.
"He has also gone to reassure his wife, who lives in Nairobi.
"He really appreciated the care he received from Congolese doctors. He refused to be transferred after the attack, saying he had confidence in the Congolese doctors," Paluku added
De Merode, 43, has been director of the park since 2008. He was attacked in a forest around 30 kilometres (20 miles) north of Goma.
The attack brought condemnation from across the country and abroad.
WWF head of conservation Lasse Gustavsson said de Merode was a "dedicated conservationist" who put his life on the line every day to protect the park and the people who depended on it for their livelihoods.
Created in 1925 during Belgian colonial rule, Virunga park is one of the oldest national parks in Africa, covering nearly 800,000 hectares along the frontier with Uganda and Rwanda.
It has gained worldwide renown for its endangered mountain gorillas and a small population of rare lowland gorillas.
The area has been targeted by oil exploration companies, and de Merode's shooting came shortly after he had filed a report into the actions of small British oil firm, SOCO International, which has sought to prospect in the area.
The company condemned the "disturbing" attack and denied any involvement.
"Any suggestion linking SOCO to this crime is completely unfounded, defamatory and highly inappropriate," it said Wednesday.
Virunga National Park was classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1979. It was placed on the organisation's "at risk" category in 1994, threatened by poaching, deforestation and numerous armed groups operating in the region.

Almodovar Talks to Euro theatres for premiere
Pedro Almodovar's eagerly anticipated new film Talk To Her (Hable Con Ella) will not receive its world premiere at one of this year's top film festivals as might be expected. Instead promotion will focus initially on just three key European territories so that the director can get back to work on his next project, the long-gestating Bad Education (La Mala Educacion).

How can I use jquery to cycle through all the table rows I have in a table, and hide the rows that contain a specific HTML value that I pass to jquery?
For instance, I have a table full of students, and courses each student is taking. If I want to hide all the rows where the course is Chemistry (regardless of student), how would I do that?
I already have captured the HTML value, what I mainly need help with is how to tell jquery to hide ALL of the rows with that HTML value, rather than just the row I click on.
Thanks in advance!
Figured this out... originally I was trying to look through all the table rows, but then I tried this and it worked:
var hide_me = $("tr:contains("+hide_value+")");hide_me.hide();
