Posted December 4, 2012 in Celeb Jihad, Nude Celebs, Sandra Bullock
Actress Sandra Bullock's life has been in a downward spiral ever since she failed in her duties as a wife, and her husband Jesse James was forced to dump her for a tattooed Nazi slut.
Since that day Sandra Bullock has made a series of bad decisions including adopting a black child, moving to the cursed heathen hellhole of New Orleans, and apparently posing for the topless photo above.
Instead of showing off her saggy titties, Sandra Bullock should be at home keeping a close eye on her shifty black child, unless she wants to find her stereo equipment for sale at the local pawn shop.

Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust is using the three hardy beasts to control wetland and scrub land in Machynlleth.
They are grazing a former forestry plantation, which the trust has transformed into a reserve.
The buffalo are surviving on scrub, gorse, birch and willow - a diet native cows would probably refuse to eat, claims the wildlife trust.
The Asian water buffalo, bred near Welshpool, weigh about half a tonne each, and they are being used by other organisations to manage the land.
South and West Wales Wildlife Trust has used them to manage scrub land, while buffalo in Cheshire graze down dense rush growth to help an RSPB bird reserve.
Tony Senior, reserves officer with Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust in Welshpool, said native breeds could suffer "health problems" if they were used to graze harsh pasture at the Cors Dyfi reserve.
The water buffalo, in contrast, graze indiscriminately, create muddy wallows and break up the ground with their hooves. This makes ideal habitats for birds such as lapwings.
Mr Senior said: "The reserve was previously a conifer plantation, but the trees have now been felled and the area is becoming a wildlife haven.
"The habitat at the site is made up of open water, swamp, bog, wet woodland, scrub and gorse.
"Buffalo are more hardy than ordinary cattle and are being used as a grazing tool. They like rougher vegetation and are good at eating scrub and gorse."

A problem-posing intervention in the development of problem-solving competence of underachieving, middle-year students
Priest, Deborah Jean (2009) A problem-posing intervention in the development of problem-solving competence of underachieving, middle-year students. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.
Deborah Priest Thesis
This study reported on the issues surrounding the acquisition of problem-solving competence of middle-year students who had been ascertained as above average in intelligence, but underachieving in problem-solving competence. In particular, it looked at the possible links between problem-posing skills development and improvements in problem-solving competence.
A cohort of Year 7 students at a private, non-denominational, co-educational school was chosen as participants for the study, as they undertook a series of problem-posing sessions each week throughout a school term. The lessons were facilitated by the researcher in the students' school setting. Two criteria were chosen to identify participants for this study. Firstly, each participant scored above the 60th percentile in the standardized Middle Years Ability Test (MYAT) (Australian Council for Educational Research, 2005) and secondly, the participants all scored below the cohort average for Criterion B (Problem-solving Criterion) in their school mathematics tests during the first semester of Year 7.
Two mutually exclusive groups of participants were investigated with one constituting the Comparison Group and the other constituting the Intervention Group. The Comparison Group was chosen from a Year 7 cohort for whom no problem-posing intervention had occurred, while the Intervention Group was chosen from the Year 7 cohort of the following year. This second group received the problem-posing intervention in the form of a teaching experiment. That is, the Comparison Group were only pre-tested and post-tested, while the Intervention Group was involved in the teaching experiment and received the pre-testing and post-testing at the same time of the year, but in the following year, when the Comparison Group have moved on to the secondary part of the school. The groups were chosen from consecutive Year 7 cohorts to avoid cross-contamination of the data.
A constructionist framework was adopted for this study that allowed the researcher to gain an "authentic understanding" of the changes that occurred in the development of problem-solving competence of the participants in the context of a classroom setting (Richardson, 1999). Qualitative and quantitative data were collected through a combination of methods including researcher observation and journal writing, video taping, student workbooks, informal student interviews, student surveys, and pre-testing and post-testing. This combination of methods was required to increase the validity of the study's findings through triangulation of the data.
The study findings showed that participation in problem-posing activities can facilitate the re-engagement of disengaged, middle-year mathematics students. In addition, participation in these activities can result in improved problem-solving competence and associated developmental learning changes. Some of the changes that were evident as a result of this study included improvements in self-regulation, increased integration of prior knowledge with new knowledge and increased and contextualised socialisation.

Teaching Critical Thinking: A Few Suggestions
Robert H. Ennis, University of Illinois, 10/00
1. Throughout, emphasize alertness for alternatives (alternative hypotheses, conclusions, explanations, sources of evidence, points of view, plans).
2. Emphasize seeking reasons and evidence. Frequently ask "Why?" in a non-threatening way, when you agree with them as well as when you don't -- and of course when you are unsure yourself -- or are trying to find out what they mean. Another good question is, "Would you say a little more about that?" "Why?" is sometimes threatening, though it is the most concise way to get out the reasons.
3. Emphasize their seeing things from others' points of view and being openminded -- that is willing to reconsider, should other reasons and evidence appear.
4. Students do not need to become subject matter experts before they can start to learn to think critically in a subject. These things can proceed together, each helping the other. Students will learn best the subject matter they use. But ultimately, of course, familiarity with the subject and situation calling for critical thinking is essential for critical thinking.
5. Ask students to discuss questions (in the subject area) to which you do not know the answer, or that are controversial.
6. Give them time to think about it. If you wait long enough, someone will offer an answer.
7. Label that answer with the student's name, so that the student receives attention and assumes some responsibility. Write the statement on the board (Don't worry about this wasting time. it gives students a chance to think about it.) Encourage them to speak to each other's positions, giving reasons. Again give wait time.
8. Get them to write down their positions, giving reasons to support what they think, showing awareness of opposing positions and the weaknesses of their own positions. Limit: two or three pages.
9. Get them to read each other's, making suggestions. Then get them to revise.
10. Seek other devices to get them to revise their papers. Then you read them.
11. Provide a set of criteria for judging their written position papers. I have enclosed a copy of a set I developed (two versions, one is text only).
12. Try to transfer responsibility for the above to them -- for them to use in other situations.
13. Be ready to postpone an assignment, if the
previous assignment is not understood. Your worst enemy is trying to cover
too much too fast.

The wig is basically a cheap wig I got from WAL MART, and I'm assuming that it's some sort of plastic. Anyway, so yeah... I need help. I'm wondering if I have to use a special dye or can I just use a normal hair dye?

The last thing you need is to worry about what your friends will think if you have a seizure. You have lots of questions about epilepsy, but you can find the answers to you questions about driving, dating, medication, and side effects.
It's also important to let some people know about your seizures, but who do you tell?
A teacher can help you adjust your schoolwork. It's also good for a teacher to know what to do if there is a seizure during class.
The school nurse should know what type of seizure you have, how often you have them, and if you take any medication. If you are not feeling well before or after a seizure, the nurse can explain why to your teacher.
A coach or activity moderator will understand when your seizures prevent you from participating. They also should know what to do if there is a seizure during their time with you.
An employer also needs to know what to do if there is a seizure during your shift. Thanks to the Americans with Disabilities Act, they cannot fire you because of your seizure disorder.
Your best friends care about you and want to help. They can help with school and other issues. A true friend is interested in who you are regardless of your seizures.
Age: 15
Home: Illinois
Q: When did you begin having seizures?
A:I began having petit mal seizures at age 6 and at age 12 I started having tonic clonic seizures. I'm 15 now.
Q: What do you find most challenging as a teenager with epilepsy?
A: The biggest challenge for me as a teenager has been the effects of the medication, and the fact that I'm not going to be able to drive as soon as the average teen.
Q: What advice do you have for other teenagers with epilepsy?
A: I would advise every teen with epilepsy to not give up hope of having a normal life, driving, getting a job, and going to college. I have found the right medicine, and my seizures are under control.
Teens with Epilepsy are
Entitled to Respect!

A resurgent Nine Network has finally mounted a challenge to
The official free-to-air television season does not finish until Saturday but Seven, still the No.1 network, has conceded defeat on the core age group.
Seven is sitting on about 30 per cent audience share across each of the networks' main and two digital channels. Nine is slightly ahead, excluding the 17 nights of the Olympics, which the network hosted in late July-early August.
"Nine will beat us by 0.5 of a share point," Seven's director of programming, Angus Ross, said about the two networks' core age group across the multiple channels.
"We focus on 25 to 54 but we also look at more people. We want to be the No.1 network."
Seven still holds a clear lead of about 3 percentage points over Nine among all people on the multiple channels, with about a 31 per cent audience share.
Seven is also slightly ahead of Nine, by less than 1 per cent, among the 25- to 54-year-olds on the main channel.
But it's a far cry from Seven's stranglehold over ratings last year, when the network won in every demographic. Before this year, Seven had won the ratings in each of the previous six years.
What turned the dial for Nine in 2012 was a string of hits like The Voice and The Block that capped a five-year turnaround for the network led by chief executive
Nine launches its 2013 program schedule tomorrow and advertisers and investors are wondering whether it can repeat its success.
"It's been a steady sort of climb back," John Sintras, chief executive of media agency Starcom MediaVest, said.
"The surprise was that they could continue to invest in programming when they were in the hands of private equity and all the debt hanging over them."
Nine Network's parent company, Nine Entertainment Co, is in the midst of a $3.3 billion restructure of its debt. Its lenders, led by US-based hedge funds Oaktree Capital and Apollo Global Management, are converting their loans into equity after private equity owners CVC Asia Pacific conceded defeat.
Nine's resurgence this year has been even more pronounced in the east coast capital city markets of Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, where Nine Entertainment Co owns the TV licences. (Bruce Gordon's WIN Corporation owns the Nine stations in Perth and Adelaide.)
Nine said it was about 3 percentage points ahead of Seven in the three east coast cities among 25 to 54-year-olds, and about 1 percentage point ahead in total people.
Nine's director of programming and production, Andrew Backwell, said Nine's focus was on the 25- to 54- -age group because it was "the revenue-generating audience. I see no real benefit for us targeting an older audience," Mr Backwell said.
Nine experienced a handful of failures throughout the year, including Excess Baggage, but its hits more than compensated.
The Voice was the No.1 rated series this year with an average of 2.4 million live and catch-up viewers combined. The Block averaged 1.5 million viewers, while Underbelly Badness and the debut series House Husbands each attracted an average of 1.3 million.
"The secret of our strategy is to strip [a program that is broadcast weeknights] at 7pm and push through to the rest of the night," Mr Backwell said.
Nine's ratings recovery is expected to help the network secure increases of about 5 to 7 per cent in the rates advertisers pay.
Seven is anticipated to extract 3 to 5 per cent increases as the troubled Network Ten's rates slide backwards, industry sources said.
The ad rate negotiations, which will be finalised around December or January, usually account for about 80 per cent of TV ad dollars booked for the following year.
Seven has 10 of the top 20 rating programs for the year, while Nine has nine and Ten only one (its cooking franchise MasterChef), calculates Fusion.
Seven's My Kitchen Rules was the second-highest rating series, attracting an average audience of 1.8 million and setting up Seven solidly at the start of the year.
But Seven also had the top three rating drama series in Revenge, Downton Abbey and Packed to the Rafters, all of which return next year.
Ten's new chief programming officer, Beverley McGarvey, who was appointed last month, said that while she was "extremely happy" with MasterChef's fourth series, Ten had experienced "a difficult patch", especially since the Olympics when the network suffered a string of flops like The Shire, I Will Survive and Everybody Dance Now.
Ten's mistake under her predecessor, David Mott, was that many of the new shows skewed to a younger audience than Ten's main channel target audience of 18 to 49s.
"Off the back of the Olympics we had that high-profile show that didn't work," she said, referring to Everybody Dance Now, which was hosted by Sarah Murdoch, the wife of Ten chairman and shareholder Lachlan Murdoch.
"There's a general mythology we are performing not as well as we are," she added.
Mr McGarvey maintains Ten's dramas "do particularly well", citing Bikie Wars: Brothers in Arms (1.1 million average audience), Offspring (987,000 average audience) and Puberty Blues (891,000).
Ten's telemovie about the Wikileaks head, Underground: The Julian Assange Story, attracted an average 1.5 million viewers.
All three commercial networks are in the midst of advertising rate negotiations with media agencies and corporate advertisers for next year, which will be determined by their respective ratings performances in 2012.
Nine is expected to secure ad rate percentage increases in the mid single-digits, due to its ratings bounce in 2012, while Seven is anticipated to grow rates in the low to mid single digits as Ten's slide backwards, said industry sources.
The ad rate negotiations, which will be finalised around December or January, usually account for about 80 per cent of TV ad dollars booked for the following year.
"It's hard to anticipate who will be stronger," said Mr Sintras of the 2013 ratings battle. "It's really going to come down to the quality of the narratives in the reality programs."

RIVERSIDE — A federal judge last week rejected a CalPERS request to sue bankrupt San Bernardino for a growing unpaid bill, but gave preliminary support to the argument that the bill must be paid in full before the city can leave bankruptcy.
The widely watched question of whether the bankruptcy will reduce pensions promised retirees or payments made by the city to CalPERS may now turn on the ability of the city to pay.
U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Meredith Jury agreed to a 60-day discovery period sought by CalPERS to probe city finances. City officials said they plan to hire a half-dozen persons to help a skeleton staff provide information to the big pension system.
The judge rejected a CalPERS motion to lift the automatic stay on debt collection imposed when San Bernardino filed for bankruptcy Aug. 1. She said employee pay would be threatened and the attempt to reorganize under bankruptcy law undercut.
Jury said she would be "highly disappointed" if CalPERS sued the city in state court, citing an appeals court decision giving bankruptcy court precedence. A CalPERS lawyer replied that an "end run" is unlikely but left the option open.
The judge indefinitely delayed a ruling on whether San Bernardino is eligible for bankruptcy, a step that would give the city more leverage in negotiations with creditors. She urged the city to begin thinking about an "end game" plan now.
In an emergency filing for bankruptcy, the city said debt deferral was needed to continue meeting payroll. Unlike in the Stockton and Vallejo bankruptcies, San Bernardino stopped making payments to CalPERS.
The city's unpaid bill to CalPERS, growing at $1.7 million a month, is now more than $8 million. The debt is expected to reach $13 million to $19 million by the end of the fiscal year in June, depending on whether unions agree to pay more toward pensions.
San Bernardino contends that a new city manager and finance officer hired last spring discovered a $19 million general fund cash deficit. The city blames years of overspending, faulty bookkeeping, a weak local economy and the housing bust.
A CalPERS attorney, Michael Gearin, told the court Friday the city has an unexplained $14.7 million cash surplus. He argued that the city could pay its CalPERS bill if ordered to do so by a state court.
In the Vallejo bankruptcy, unions waged a lengthy and unsuccessful court battle to dip into restricted special funds to help close a general fund deficit. San Bernardino already has borrowed $15 million from special funds and is proposing to defer repayment.
The judge told an attorney for the city, Paul Glassman, during a four-hour hearing that CalPERS apparently hopes to discover a "pot of gold" stashed among the city special funds.
Glassman said all of the special fund information is on the city website, except for limited access to the water department. He said the city has borrowed from special funds to survive but cannot simply "raid" them.
CalPERS said the city only produced about a dozen of the more than 50 financial documents requested. During a hearing recess, CalPERS and the city were unable to agree on a discovery plan. They will try again before the next court hearing Jan. 22.

Copyright © 1998 by William A. Henkin
<Q> With regard to finding intelligent and thoughtful people in the leather communities as you discussed a couple of months ago, may I suggest another hypothesis? I think most people who have radical sex urges are in denial and/or in the closet, repressing, suppressing, projecting, etc., so we don't generally meet a cross-section of all such adults, but only those who have come out. To know oneself is a difficult emotional and cognitive task probably made less difficult by intelligence, courage, thoughtfulness and to look in the mirror and say "I am a deviant, viewed by society as abnormal, and I am proud" may suggest a high degree of individualism and/or a less-than-normal urge to conform. In its emotional sense, thoughtfulness entails caring, compassion, sensitivity, and a willingness to communicate. I think one must bring such traits to the process of SM negotiation, and this process, repeated again and again, may enhance and expand those traits the way an active mind builds a better brain.
And now for a question: there have been academic studies in which the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory: a psychological personality test WAH) was given to samples of swingers. Has such work yet been done with leather communities?
<A> Part One: I certainly agree that we never knowingly meet a cross-section of sex radicals, either because most such people are in the closet as you suggest, or because it takes time to know oneself enough to decide or discover whether alternative sexuality is an interest one finds worth pursuing, or in any case because none of our lives is so random as to bring us into communication with a true cross-section of any population. To view oneself as proudly deviant does, I think, "suggest a high degree of individualism and/or a less-than-normal urge to conform," and that can be good for the self-esteem of someone who sees hirself as an outsider. But whether these conditions express the profound insights associated with self-knowledge or an equally profound urge to nonconform whether they are the result of really free choice or are conditioned reactions against doing what one is told to do I think must be assessed on a person-by-person and maybe even on a situation-by-situation or a moment-by-moment basis. Certainly it is difficult to know oneself, and from the depths of my own ignorance it seems to me that the process of coming to know myself never ends.
Part Two: Charles Moser did a study called "The Sexual Profiles of 108 Self-Identified Sadomasochists," which is unpublished but on file at the Institute for Advanced Study of Human Sexuality. Other people too, including me, have done similar studies in association with the Institute. But though I have not done a thorough search of the literature, I have read widely in the SM field and I have not yet come across an MMPI study of leatherfolk, nor have I seen any referred to, nor have I heard of any, so my guess is that it hasn't been done. Perhaps you're the person? As a Ph.D. candidate it would be terrific research.

earaches in dogs Do You Know The Special Considerations Crucial In Beagle Coaching? When undertaking Beagle training, each of the normal coaching some social norms still utilize. This can consist of home training a pup and puppy obedience training. Whenever instruction your pup we even now truly feel that incentive patterned training instead of penalty oriented is a lot far more successful. The Beagle has over the hundreds of years been trained particularly like a searching canine and is even today useful for rabbit hunting. While you do not intend on employing your Beagle for hunting, there are some all-natural instincts that have been bred in to the Beagle which will certainly impact your common behavior training coaching. Being conscious of this kind of strong intuition will aid you in catering for them and changing your instruction appropriately. This is really important in all the canine training techniques. By its very temperament, rabbit hunting is definitely an undertaking the dog completes on your own. He will instantly go to searching setting just after he finds a scent, and would then tend to ignore everything you say. You'll as a result should be stronger than the majority of trainers on producing to Beagle focuses and will pay concentration to you personally if you say something. Probably the most impressive approach to carry out this really is to make use of the dog's name in the form of prelude to any command. Saying the name and waiting for the canine to respond by taking a look at you prior to than pursuing up along with the command at the.grams. sit down or come. To obtain your Beagle to do this, make certain you have a lot of treats along with you continually during your Beagle instruction stages. Incentive the puppy each and every time he requires action to his title along with the command that comes subsequent. Check out this a number of occasions right up until you're certain that your pup acts every time you speak his name, regardless of what the current disruption. Included in bunny hunting, Beagles 'give voice' (i.at the. howl) once they choose-up a scent. It is consequently unavoidable that beagles are actually more prone to howling than other dog breeds. In the event you pick-up that the Beagle has gotten a scent inside the horticulture and therefore presents tone of voice, there exists not significant which you can carry out to get rid of years of behavioral instinct. Using the puppy far from the scent and, if possible, removing the scent are in regards to the only alternatives. When Beagles are left all alone frequently there's also a propensity to howl. I would advocate that you highly consider obtaining a playmate for your beagle on these circumstances. In case you do aim with your Beagle for any searching harrass, the simplest way to educate him can be to permit him hunt with a qualified harrass. Just as kids understand greatest by adhering to the instance set by grownup, your Beagle puppy will duplicate the steps of the adult hound very quickly and in no time at all the instincts will come up and he will become a fantastic searching harrass. 1 word of caution about this topic: ensure you select an excellent harrass like a teacher plus instance. Picking out a harrass that's old or features a chilly nasal area won't achieve the required result. earaches in dogs earaches in dogs
earaches in dogs Beagle Wellness Watch Out For It Beagles can definitely be pleasant as domestic pets since they're just so lovable and lovable. They're also really energetic, fun and fun-loving that no house will ever become bored when they are about. But despite the lively nature of those cute dogs there are some things that owners should be careful of and one from it is their pet's health. Beagles are just like people who consume, rest and get sick when their health isn't looked after and that's why it is crucial to be aware of the health problems that your beagle is susceptible to. With an average, the beagles could live up to fifteen years as this is a very healthy breed and ways to make them reside this long is to be aware what health complications to be cautious about to avoid it from happening.

Due to the long ear that hang from the side, the dampness is caught inside making your beagle's ear vulnerable to infections and yeast buildup. Try checking and cleansing your dog's ear ever so frequently just to make certain that it is clear of candida or infections. Beagles are absolute meals lovers and they won't be able to give up eating so long as food is before them and the bad thing about it is they can't stand working out. That's the reason the beagles are one of the breeds that are really vulnerable to weight problems. As the proprietor you shouldn't let this happen because an obese beagle has got the tendency to develop more severe health issues. That is why it is very important to watch what your dog consumes so that it doesn't turn out to be obese. The droopy beagle eye are adorable but it won't stay this way as soon as glaucoma impacts your dog's eye. Glaucoma happens when there is an excessive amount of pressure within the eyeballs it obstructs the fluid from flowing and this condition is among the a lot of things that beagles suffer from. You can easily identify this when you discover signs and symptoms like cloudy pupils, large students and inflammation within the eyes. Pulmonic Stenosis can be quite harmful to your beagle's wellness because this impacts the center. Once the lung artery has an abnormal framework, it can make your pet vulnerable to many different health conditions. It is important to have this treated immediately and the greatest treatment is always to get the pet remedial surgical treatment to repair the control device of the beagle. 1 hereditary medical problem that is common among beagles may be the puppy epilepsy where your dog are experiencing repeated convulsions. When our dog has this, the best thing to do is to bring it towards the veterinarian to get it treated immediately. Among the healthiest dog breed may be the beagle and they could certainly reside for some time if they're used cared of properly.

10. Ocho Cortado, or cut-off figure 8's
Syncopated rocking step
His forward right
on her right side
She steps left, and in this variation
(the 3rd time through in the video)
she brings her right quickly to
her left before...
...stepping right. Note the
leader's orientation here versus....
...here. With a twist of his
body, he leads the follower
to cross left in front of Right.
...and out.
The ocho cortado is a pattern particularly suited to Tango Vals because of its rotating quality.
From a syncopated rocking step (1st picture)the follower steps forward R on her partner's right side (2nd picture). From there his continued rotation leads her to step side L as though moving into a grapevine pattern (3rd picture). However, he allows her weight to rest on the side L step only briefly before stopping her and quickly swiveling his chest left causing her to reverse her direction correspondingly, crossing L in front of R (4th picture).
Follower's part: starting with her step back R, replace L, forward R (1, 3, 1) then side L replace R, cross L in front of R, taking weight on L (1, 3, 1). Because of the rotational feeling of this move, at the point of her cross the follower allows her weighted R foot to swivel toe toward the left, and her left heel to lead the way into the cross. This video sequence shows three variations or embellishments of the side-replace-cross sequence for the follower. The first is the most basic.
Leader's part: starting with his step forward L, replace R, back a very short step L (1, 3, 1). He then rotates chest right, opening the toes of his R foot a quarter turn but leaving his heels close together and shifting his weight briefly to the R foot. This leads her to take her side L step.
Next he pivots his chest L and transfers weight to his L foot momentarily and without moving it, then steps back R continuing his sharp chest pivot to the left. At this point he must keep his chest forward, or the follower will be pulled forward off balance at the cross.

Bloomingdale's Has Just The Dress For Your Wonky Elbow!
Sometimes I think Jezebel is a little too anal in their war on Photoshop (for example, I disagree that Rolling Stone gave the women of "Mad Men" "brand new torsos"); however, sometimes the blog hunts down some truly gross examples of retouching gone wrong. Like this photo from Bloomingdales.com of a model wearing a Diane Von Furstenberg dress which, apparently, is the height of fashion for women with bizarrely dislocated elbows. Yikes! [Jezebel]

Many reptiles share a variety of similar traits, including scaling skin, ectothermic metabolisms and egg-laying reproductive methods. However, when all living reptile species are considered, few traits are common to all. This is because the group scientists call "reptiles" includes not only turtles, lizards, snakes and alligators, but also birds and tuataras as well. Scientists use shared ancestry to define a group of animals not a collection of shared traits.Continue Reading
Scientists do not consider animals to form a natural group because they share a collection of traits. Accordingly, as birds descended from primitive reptiles, they are modern reptiles. While most reptiles have scale-covered skin on at least some portion of their body, birds have scales only on their feet. Additionally, while snakes, lizards, turtles, alligators and tuataras are all "cold-blooded" or ectothermic animals, birds are endothermic or "warm-blooded" animals. The majority of reptiles deposit eggs that hatch into young. However, some snakes and lizards give birth to live young.
Many of these similar traits, specifically scales, are an adaptation to living on dry land. Reptiles evolved from amphibian-like animals that lived in the water. As reptiles began colonizing the land, they had to evolve a method for preventing dehydration. Scales evolved to suit this need, as they are impervious to water.Learn more about Pet Reptiles

Konami and developer Mercury Steam want you to give the upcoming 3DS platformer, Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate, a shot before it arrives next month. As announced briefly during yesterday's Nintendo Direct event, a demo is slated to hit the eShop on February 28.
The last trailer that debuted for Mirror of Fate promised an "epic 20-hour adventure," so this should give at least a slight idea of what to look forward to when the full game arrives in North America on March 5, and in Europe on March 8.

Wed. March 6, 2013 | Bob Putnam | Email
CLEARWATER — Tuesday's game was more Arena League Football than baseball. There were plenty of hits — and runs — as the players circled the bases as if it were kids' night.
St. Petersburg and Clearwater combined for 26 hits and 15 runs. There also were a combined nine walks and two balks. The offensive onslaught took its toll with each team going through three pitchers.
The Tornadoes did most of their damage early, scoring all eight of their runs in the first four innings. It was just enough as Clearwater held off a late rally for an 8-7 victory.
And yet while the offenses put on a show, it was the glove work of Tornadoes third baseman Kyle Amaral that might have been the difference.
Amaral did not just make spectacular plays on sure base hits. The senior smothered the ball.
There was a fly ball he snagged before running back to third to make a tag on a double play. There was a smash that he went to his knees to grab and throw out a runner at first. And there was a bunt he scooped barehanded and threw to first.
"I had a lot of balls that were hit hard my way," Amaral said. "That just comes with the position. I was just able to react well and make some plays."
Amaral did not play last year because of a conflict with his work schedule.
"Kyle has been coming around this season," Clearwater coach Ken Clawson said. "He's made some plays for us before, but he's never had a night where he's had that many hit to him and made that many big plays. That saved us some runs."
The Tornadoes (2-3) were strong at the top of their order with three of their first four hitters — Clay Gilman, Reed Avers and Colin Lonsberry — each getting two hits. Clearwater's big innings came in the first and third with three runs each.
St. Petersburg's Aaron Haughton went 2-for-3 with three RBIs. His big hit was a two-run homer in the first.
Down 8-4 through four, the Green Devils rallied with one run in the fifth inning and two more in the sixth. In the seventh, Amaral made his final big play and groundout off a sacrifice bunt. Two of the next three batters flew out to end the game.

The Shakespeare Conference: SHK 8.0803. Wednesday, 30 July 1997.
Date: Tuesday, 29 Jul 1997 23:09:54 +0100 (BST)
Subject: Juliet's Birthday
30th July 1997
Juliet's Birthday
In Romeo and Juliet the nurse says
Even or odde, of all daies in the yeare come Lammas Eve at night,
she be fourteen.
In a current French calendar of saints 30th July is the feast of St.
Juliette, so was Juliet really born on an even-numbered day, the 30th,
shortly before midnight?
I've managed to trace the feast day of this saint - under the name
Julitta - back to a calendar of saints from the 1660's, but no
further. I've tried all the calendars of saints I could find in the
British Library, but these are clearly not comprehensive. There were
various reforms of the calendar of saints, with certain changes of
dates, in the late 16th and early 17th century. Has anyone any
suggestions on how I can obtain further information on the saints days
which might have been known to Shakespeare?

OFSET is a not for profit French international association under the law of 1901. It has been set up in response to the slow development of free educational software for the GNU system. It will promote all possible forms of development and localisations needed by the world wide education system. OFSET wants to be very close to the philosophical aspirations of the FSF.
Free Software
The concept of free computing is based on the distribution of software with the complete source code that can be freely used, modified, distributed and protected due to the copy-left license.
A free educational software follows several principles:
- Freedom to use a software without restriction;
- Freedom to copy, sell and share it between teachers and students;
- Freedom to understand its internals;
- Freedom to modify and redistribute it. Here, the author should be very careful with the distribution license used. We suggest using a copy-left license and specifically the GNU GPL;
- Academic freedom: the freedom from corporate interest in the area of education. Also free software does not lock students into proprietary standards.
- Equality of access to the knowledge that can be generated by free software in an educational environment;
- Equality of access to the knowledge transported by free software, for example access to the world wide web infrastructure thanks to free software and open standards;
- Fraternity between developers and users thanks to free access to the source code. A developer does not have any interest in hiding information. On the contrary, the more information he provides the greater the chance of user contributions. The users can also adapt the software to their needs. If they do not have this capability, they can suggest additions to the authors and even help OFSET by becoming an active member of the organization.
The feedbacks from users to authors are very likely to be considered by authors, especially if well articulated.
In fact, a division between free software developers and users does not exist. A user can easily participate in the development of an application, by creating source code, translations, documentation, graphic art, etc.;
- Fraternity between developers, especially in two ways.
First by allowing sharing and cooperation between authors of different projects, due to the open nature of the source code. Second by very close cooperation between authors to build extensive projects: for example the Gnome project, where close to 300 developers work to build a free GUI;
These values are the real strength of free software, thanks to the copy-left GNU GPL license. In less then 15 years and with few financial resources it has produced a completely free operating system - GNU/Linux - out-classing many alternatives. In the world of computer science, 15 years is a long time but we have to consider that the project started from scratch and now offers an entire system. After all, 15 years is not long considering the freedom we now get. The main goal of OFSET is to promote this rising freedom in educational software.
Free Educational Software
The development of free software is mostly conducted trough the Internet using tools such as mailing-lists, IRC and CVS. The developers are very often volunteers but increasingly business companies dedicating development time to free software. With the huge energy spent in projects like Gnome and KDE, it is realistic to think that in the near future the GNU/Linux system will be a major player in the desktop scene. To allow the emergence of the free software philosophy in schools we need to develop more free educational software dedicated to teaching. Also, free software has an intrinsic educational value: the source code. Free access to computer tools allows advanced students to go further on their own: 1. they acquire a sense of emancipation in exploring and modifying software; 2. they are formed through the idea of free collaboration in software development.
Today installing a workstation based on GNU/Linux in a school is a reality. The distributions are getting more and more easy to install. Even if installing such a system requires specific knowledge or training, several schools have taken the step. However, taking care of such a system is quite easy thanks to the rock solid behavior of GNU/Linux.
Of course, a system of networked GNU/Linux workstations is not enough for a school. A lot of applications that can be used in schools are available under GNU/Linux and cover several areas - with greater emphasis on science. Schools need applications for common needs such as office and communication software, but schools also need specific educational software to support teaching.
These applications exist in proprietary forms but are not always available in free equivalents. When available, it's in very specific domain area and very often it is not localized to the language required by the user. A problem of the existing applications that can be used in school is their lack of consistency concerning the user interface. This is really a challenge to teachers and students as they need to learn different interface paradigms with almost each application.
OFSET will be very meticulous regarding this issue by following the FSF guideline and other HCI standard.
OFSET will also be focused on applications that can be used in most countries of the world.
The Charter
The main objective of this organization is the development of a coherent set of free educational software. It is open to everyone willing to contribute. The needed competencies are various as in any development project: realization of conceptual model, programming, documenting the developed software, translations of tutorials and programmer's guides to help teachers developing software under the GNU/Linux system, artistic skills (graphic and sound), writing exercises for the developed software, testing software, promoting our work,... we may also need competence in legal domains.
To keep our work coherent with our philosophy we have set up a development Charter. Its goal is to ensure the developments:
- follow the philosophy of the GNU project;
- use only free software development tools;
- are coherent and consistent, especially in the user interface domain;
- use - when appropriate - RAD tools.
The first idea is to ensure every one can contribute to a development project of a free educational software, so we can't allow the use of non free development tools. The next idea is to encourage the use of development tools such as Python + Gnome + Glade + Libglade, Python + wxWindows or any other free equivalent so even non professional developers can contribute to major development. Finally, we want the developed software to be coherent and consistent by using the best free technology: Gnome, KDE, wxWindows or any other equivalent.
A copy of the Charter can be found at the OFSET home page.
The Organization
Association Law 1901
French Association Law 1901 means people can become a legal member of OFSET and participate - with the weight of one voice - in the decisions taken during the general assembly of OFSET.
There are three different kinds of members:
- honor members;
- active or adherent members;
- benefactor members.
To become an active member a subscription fee is paid each year. The subscription rate is fixed in the internal regulation of OFSET. Under some conditions, benefactors and active members can get each year, when subscribing, a set of CDROM of free educational software. This is specifically targeted for educationl institutions interested in supporting the developpement of free educational software and with the possibilities to receive copy of what is already developped or updated in this field. The subscription fee will help to finance future development.
The activity
Of course to participate in development, it's not necessary to be a member of OFSET, but being an active member a financial support is provided to the structure.
One of the first occupations of OFSET will be to build an inventory of applications of interest for schools. A fraction of the OFSET site will be dedicated to this goal and everyone will be able to contribute. The project's name is Freeduc.
In parallel to this work, we will start lobbying activities to raise funds. These funds will be used to develop, to port and to promote free educational software.
Lastly, OFSET will produce free documentation to help educators and teachers to use and to produce free software.

Time to try something a little different on the grill. Or at least, it's new for me. I went to my local Asian market and purchased frozen banana leaves. I've researched the process and decided how I will tackle this for the first time. I'll be documenting this so we can both walk through this learning experience together.
Note: You'll notice the picture doesn't quite match the instructions. That's because I'm slightly modifying the way it's done, based on some of the areas I felt were a struggle, and should be done slightly different.
Okay, lets get started.
First things first, lets prepare the rub we're going to use on the salmon.
2 TBS brown sugar
2 TBS Paprika
1 TBS ground orange peel
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp. pepper
Combine all of the rub ingredients together in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Set the rub aside.
Note: With the brown sugar, a shaker would be tough, so just sprinkle it on by hand. You'll be rubbing it in anyway to achieve a uniform application.
Rest of Ingredients:
- 1 (2 lb.) salmon filet
- Salmon Rub (from this recipe)
- 6 thin lime slices (per filet)
- A few sprigs of cilantro (ground leaves will do also)
- Whole banana leaves (can usually be found in Asian markets)
Once again, first things first. Depending on how many filets you're grilling, take the banana leaves out of the freezer and get them thawing out. This only takes about 10 minutes.
Now lets get that grill going. You'll need a medium – high heat for this one.
Cutting and Preparing the Banana Leaves
This was the tricky part for me. A lot of recipes on the internet say to cut this in a 12″ x 12″ square. Doesn't work too well at all. Here is how I ended up having to do this:
1) A (2 lb.) filet will be about 12 to 15 inches long. Cut the filet into 3 even lengths. (About 4 1/2 inches long). Remove the skin from the salmon as thoroughly as possible.
2) Before cutting your banana leaf into lengths, go along the edge of the leaf and cut a 1/2 wide strip, 18 inches long. You'll need 3 of these. These are to tie the package up.
3) Now cut (3) lengths of banana leaf (18 inches) long.
4) Now that the banana leaves are cut and thawed out, and the grill is going, place the banana leafs one at a time on the grill for about 10 seconds. Long enough for them to start wilting just a bit. You'll see them start to look wet and shiny right away. This will make them more pliable. Then flip it over and do the same to the other side.
Let's Prepare the Salmon
- Spread out flat, one banana leaf. Starting near one end of the leaf (length wise), evenly place 3 lime slices and a light sprinkling of cilantro on it in the center of the leaf (width wise), about the length of the salmon filet.
- Liberally apply the spice rub on the top of a filet, then flip it over and place it on the banana leaf, on top of the lime and cilantro. Apply the rub to the second side.
- Place 3 lime slices and cilantro on the second side of the filet.
- Wrap the contents of the leaf up into a neat little package.
- Fold the ends over, and tie the package with one of the thin strips of banana leaf across the middle.
- Place the neat little packages on the grill directly above the coals, and cook for 5 to 6 minutes on the first side. Now flip the package over and cut a slit length wise through the banana leaf to expose the fish. You'll want to open it up a bit too. This is so you can monitor the cooking of the salmon, and know when it's cooked to perfection.
Note: If the banana leaf starts burning after flipping it, have some aluminum foil ready to go, and just slide that under the packages. This is because your fire is just a bit too hot.
This had a very nice flavor to it. Not sure if it was just the rub, or the banana leaf, but it was absolutely delicious!
This should easily serve 4.
