A guest post by Ashley Porter
7th-grade math teacher, Webster Groves School District, Missouri
Imagine Learning now publishes monthly guest posts in order to stimulate conversations about K12 education across the country. Opinions expressed herein are those of the individual author and may not necessarily reflect the official opinion of Imagine Learning.
Think back to the college years when you were choosing your major. Education? Check. As to age group, you would have noted four basic categories: early childhood, elementary, middle, or high school students. Each had its merits, but you could only pick one. Check.
I chose the math path–middle school first, followed by high school math later. I decided on math because it was in my comfort zone. That's what most middle school and high school teachers do; they choose the area they're most comfortable with. Yay! No more science, world studies, or English for me, right?
My first teaching assignment was at a high school, teaching all levels of algebra. There was a big push, as there should be, to get students to graduate on time. Some teachers were assigned as "graduation coaches," and I was one of them.
It was my job to work with students, build a relationship, help them catch up, and get them to a timely graduation. These students were struggling, behind on credits, and risked not graduating at all (or certainly not on time). So, as a graduation coach, I was encouraged to help students in all their areas of struggle.
At this point, I received some of the best advice I ever got as an educator.
Essentially, I was told by a principal that if I helped students with all subjects (not just math), I'd build my student relationships beyond anything I was currently experiencing. And that's exactly what happened.
Take a Risk, Help a Student
I think as teachers, we get in our comfort zone but still want to push students out of theirs. It's an understandable tendency!
In the classroom, students obviously have a lot of opportunities to form impressions. As teachers, we all want to build relationships and help students succeed. But what's the best way?
In my own case, by pushing students and working with them outside my norm, I grew as an educator while imprinting the importance of education on the students I helped.
Again–think back to your college days. While you may have avoided certain teaching subjects because you weren't comfortable with them–you still passed these core subjects. That means you still have the capacity to remember and refresh your knowledge in those areas.
Simply put: it was possible for you then, and it's possible for you now.
Too often, teachers like to say "I don't teach that subject. There's a reason why, and I can't help you." Unfortunately, such statements send the wrong message to students about the importance of all subjects, hinting that those "other" subjects are of no use to students in the future.
Start outside your comfort zone, go cross-curricular, and get in the trenches to help students with other subject areas. By not just concentrating on your own area of expertise, you show students that you believe in and support them, care about them as a whole, and aren't only interested in what they're doing in your class or subject area.
Marshall Your Best Resources
Think how often teachers ask students to use all their available resources when learning something new. Guess what? You can do the same! And your students are truly your best resources.
To begin, talk through what students already know and then help fill in the blanks. Secondly, follow your own best advice by thinking through what you already know and remember about a given subject.
Google your questions. Look at notes. Find another teacher who knows more. These are tactics you already know, so now's the time to use them.
By working through assignments or class work with students, teachers have a better chance to help those same struggling students turn their school careers around.
Learn Lessons from Outside the 'Zone'
I learned a lot my first year as a graduation coach–not just about my students but also about a host of other subjects. I brushed up on my Spanish. I remembered why chemistry gave me a headache. And I learned more about the importance of commas and semicolons than I cared to remember.
Was this extra work? Yes. Was I doing more work than my students? Some days. Were they suddenly miraculous students? No. But did they know someone cared? Absolutely.
I left that high school–and my duties as a graduation coach–a couple of years ago to work at the middle school level. But I still reflect fondly on those experiences in high school.
My current students are now further away from graduation than my high school students were, but I find myself asking them about other classes and checking on them regularly.
So, what have I learned from going outside my comfort zone?
For one thing, I've learned that it's never too early to show you care about students and their academics. Sometimes that's all they need to build good habits and do well. I've stayed in contact with the students I coached and I enjoy such positive memories of our times together.
At the end of each school year, I let my students in on a little secret … the past year wasn't all just about the math. It was, and is, about more than that. It's even bigger than what's happening in the classroom.
Now that I've gone outside my own comfort zone, I have some advice for all the teachers out there: Get out of your comfort zone to help students succeed, even if it means that you'll put them out of their comfort zone in the process. Growth can't happen any other way!
Life is about embracing new challenges. When you show your class that you're willing to get out of your comfort zone, you give them permission to do the same. And that's where the best learning adventures start.

Talking about young people's working lives
Today's Business View contributor is Equal Employment Opportunities commissioner Judy McGregor , who describes the findings from the national conversation about work - a two-year project that spoke to 3000 people across the country about the experiences of employers and employees at work.
Some secondary school students are working up to 30 hours before and after classes, and on weekends.
Long work hours for some teenagers was one of the findings of the What Next? National Conversation about Work report released today.
Those working long hours while still at school were using their money for items such as cars, cellphones and clothes.
The National Conversation about Work report represents the views of more than 3000 employers and employees working in a wide variety of industry sectors.
The project was undertaken to identify what constituted good work and what made for decent workplaces and to identify how work could be improved in terms of fairness.
In almost every region youth employment was raised as a major concern. The major issues are:
- young tertiary-qualified people are struggling to gain employment;
- some secondary students are working long hours;
- disadvantaged youth with low levels of educational attainment are falling through the cracks;
- there is a worrying level of employer bias about hiring young people.
One of the recommendations is the need to develop a national youth-to-work programme for every young Kiwi that has cross- party support and sufficient long- term funding security.
Any strategy introduced must be responsive to the needs of Maori and Pacific youth as particularly vulnerable groups of young people.
One of the first issues raised when the commission's staff visited regions over the past two years was youth unemployment.
However, secondary school students in Taranaki surprised the commission when they said they worked up to 30 hours per week.
Asked what they liked about their work, students replied: "Work is fun and enjoyable; and the interaction with people is great." But teachers were concerned that in some cases that work distracted students from their studies.
Students wanted better access to plain English information about employee rights, qualifications, courses and career pathways.
Various youth work initiatives operating in many regions are delivering outstanding outcomes for youth. However, these innovative programmes are not widespread and many need secure funding.
Some of the enterprising schemes include an "incubator" programme in Hawke's Bay aimed at encouraging youth towards careers in the health sector, a scholarship programme aimed at business administration in Dunedin, and a trades training programme in Otorohanga contributing to young peoples' career aspirations.
In Otorohanga, the trade training programme had successfully kept youth employment at zero per cent and apprenticeship completion rates above 90 per cent.
The commission learnt of a worrying bias by some employers against young people due to perceived attitudes to work and stereotypes about the youth work ethic. Some employers believe they have to make a much greater investment in younger people to get them up to speed. Youth unemployment is generally higher during recession, but employers' attitudes towards young people were a marked feature of the national conversation about work.
Other young-worker issues raised in the national conversation about work included provision of relevant employment rights information in attractive media formats that appeal to young, improved monitoring of youth as they transition from education to work, and specific focus on Maori and Pacific youth employment outcomes.

Investigate the feasibility of 7 axle truck and dogs PBS mass limits
- Scoping >
- Analysing issues >

Increasing the number of higher productivity vehicles using the network will help Australia's economy grow by boosting the productivity of our transport system.
Performance based standards (PBS)-approved vehicles can carry heavier loads and can offer up to 20 per cent more productivity than non-PBS vehicle combinations, but industry has said that the time and cost taken to approve PBS design, assessment and certification act as barriers to greater use.
The PBS scheme aims to encourage the uptake of more productive vehicle designs without sacrificing safety requirements.
Next steps
National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) is developing a Class 3 National Notice as an interim measure to allow access to networks.
The NTC will review the effectiveness of the Class 3 National Notice after three years with a view to allow compliant seven-axle truck and trailer combinations through regulation.
We have gained agreement from state and territory governments for the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) to streamline the approval process for seven-axle truck and trailer combinations that meet PBS.
The NTC has developed a specification envelope for seven-axle truck and trailer vehicle combinations. The envelope provides 'boundary conditions' (i.e. the dimensional range within which PBS vehicles are currently built). PBS vehicles constructed in accordance with the specification envelope that can be used to carry heavier loads than conventional seven axle combinations. The designs are for:
- seven-axle truck and trailer with low bins
- seven-axle truck and trailer with high bins.
Seven-axle truck and trailer combinations that fit within the specification envelope will be permitted to be operated up to PBS mass limits on the networks specified by the relevant road managers.

Alison Garwood-Jones is an award-winning writer, blogger and a former editor with Elle Canada and Viva magazines. Her blog, "Society Pages," explores her take on human nature and was nominated twice ("Arts & Entertainment" and "Life" categories) in the 2014 Canadian Weblog Awards. Alison was also recently cited as a "favourite blogger" by BrazenCareerist.com, the Washington, D.C.-based work-related website for "next-generation professionals" profiled by 60 Minutes.
Through her magazine feature writing and media work, Alison has built a steady business teaching social media workshops and consulting for corporate clients and freelancers who want to tell better digital stories and solve business problems for potential clients who are looking for answers in online searches. Since the Fall of 2014, Alison has been an instructor in Digital Strategy & Communications Management at the University of Toronto (SCS).
Alison not only writes, she draws:
As an artist consultant to brands, she provides a fresh perspective and competitive advantage to businesses looking to clarify their marketing message and direction online and offline. Writer Leah Lamb said it well in Fast Company, "Who better to lead [brands] through cultural shifts in real time than someone who is actually engaged in the production of culture?" To see how Alison has incorporated drawings into her writing and communications offerings, check out her work with TEDx and Lean In.
Beyond her corporate partnerships, Alison's digital and freestyle drawings published on her WordPress blog, Society Pages, have garnered the praise of legendary graphic designer and book cover king, Chip Kidd, as well as the illustrator Tom Bachtell of The New Yorker. In an email to Alison, Kidd called one of her political drawings, "a great conceptual drawing," while Bachtell wrote, "a beautiful illustration. It's simple, but perfectly captures the essence of the story. Hard to do, as I well know." (Yes, she squealed when she got their emails).
Before becoming a journalist, illustrator and social media strategist, Alison was a museum intern and fellow at the Art Institute of Chicago, The Smithsonian in Washington, D.C. and the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France, as well as a freelance curator at her hometown gallery, The Art Gallery of Hamilton. This was followed by a three-year stint in film where she worked as a historical consultant and writer with the Emmy Award-winning Devine Entertainment on their artist biopics that aired on HBO and PBS. Alison is working again with Devine on MacCap Learning Systems, their ed-tech start-up being funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Weather: Warm, sunny day with strong winds and a forecast top temperature of 30c.
Track: Good (3)
Rail: 3m out
Weather: Cold, windy day with showers and a forecast top temperature of 16c.
Track: Heavy (9)
Rail: 2m out
BE WARY: The Rosehill track surface will be very firm, particularly as strong winds are forecast today. The rail is out 3m which generally provides is the best position at Rosehill. At Mornington, the track is already a heavy 9 and will stay in the heavy range given the bleak forecast. Look for genuine wet-track performers at Mornington.
THE BEST BET: AUSSIES LOVE SPORT (race 2) is very short but he does look the best of good things. He was dominant winning over 1400m here two starts back then even more impressive winning the Ming Dynasty Quality at Randwick, easily defeating Open Book and Champagne Cath, He is already into $1.80 favouritism and is likely to start even shorter on track given his apparent dominance. Aussies Love Sport will relish the 1500 while his main rival, Eurozone, looks a stamina risk. The small field and lack of tempo isn't a concern either as Aussies Love Sport is strong and powerful, giving jockey Tommy Berry the option of forcing the issue if he desires. He will win.
NEXT BEST: HIGH ESTEEM (race 7) is a promising four-year-old and gets an opportunity to breakthrough at Group level in the Shannon Stakes, He was competitive first-up when sixth to Puissance De Lune in the Lawrence Stakes then was unlucky when edged out by stablemate Lidrari over 1400m at Caulfield. He then stepped up to the Group 3 Cameron Handicap and ran very well to beat all but Epsom favourite Toydini. High Esteem drew wide at Newcastle and had to work to get across early, leaving him a sitting shot for the impressive Toydini. High Esteem has drawn nicely in barrier 4, should get a soft run and looks very hard to beat.
VALUE BET: SHE'S BELLA (race 4) has to negotiate a huge jump in grade from a Kembla maiden to Listed level but there was a lot to like about her first-up win. She settled midfield in the 1000m scamper but powered past her rivals in the straight to win running away by more than three lengths. Admittedly they were a moderate lot but the acceleration she showed in the last 200m was most impressive. She's Bella was placed in three city races when last in work so she has ability. The 1400m will suit and she is terrific each way value around the $15 mark.
THE WHISPER: RED TRACER (race 5) is an outstanding mare who finally broke through at Group 1 level when she took out the Tatts Tiara at Eagle Farm back in June. She is resuming here but has trialled well in preparation for her comeback and she boasts a superb first-up record with three wins (three placings) from six starts. An exceptional wet-tracker but she also handles firm surfaces with three wins on good tracks. Awkwardly drawn in barrier 1 but has good gate speed and should be able to take up a position close to the lead. Suited by the set weights and penalty conditions of this race, always performs at Rosehill and over 1400m. There is a lot to like about Red Tracer.
THE BEST BET: SURPASS (race 6) is a rising staying star. He was super impressive at his Australian debut when he romped home by more than five lengths at Sandown then was similarly dominant scoring over 2000m on this track earlier this month. He has a powerful finishing surge and the ability to put a space on his rivals very quickly. Lightly raced former New Zealander with proven wet track ability, having won twice (and three placings) from five starts on heavy tracks. Surpass should have no problems handling the step up to stakes grade and can continue his winning momentum.
THE NEXT BEST: ST MARK (race 5) excels on heavy tracks, being unbeaten in the only two starts he has had in such conditions. One of those wins came at Sandown back in June when he scored easily. His form has been mixed since and included a second to Midnight Glory at Caulfield before three unplaced runs. He found the 2400m too far when a struggling sixth to Sacred Dream at Bendigo last start, He tended to over-race that day then perhaps he was fatigued as he laid in under pressure in the run home, St Mark is much better suited at 2010m and the very wet track conditions are ideal. He can bounce back to winning form today.
VALUE BET: LAUGH AT LIFE (race 4) has a poor winning strike-rate and hasn't managed a win for 13 months but he could easily sneak away with this race. He saves his best for heavy tracks where in eight previous starts in these conditions, he has won and been placed another five times. His recent form is sound with three seconds from his last four starts. With the scratchings, it has made Laugh At Life's task just that little bit easier.
THE WHISPER: COMPLICATE (race 8) is resuming today but he showed promise last season, winning the Canberra Guineas, running second to Ichihara in the Gosford Guineas and being placed fifth in the Hawkesbury Guineas and Queensland Guineas. He has never been tried on heavy tracks but his sire Commands is noted for producing super wet-track performers, and he is out of a Canny Lad mare suggesting he will revel in these conditions. The Peter Snowden stable had a good opinion of Complicate and tested him in some good races as a three-year-old. He's making his new season debut today and this is not a strong race. His wide barrier might be beneficial by the last race given the track conditions are likely to worsen given rain is forecast during the meeting.

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- The University of Kentucky Athletic Association has asked a federal judge to dismiss a $50 million antitrust lawsuit filed by a former UK assistant football coach.
In its motion, filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Lexington, the UKAA said Claude Bassett has not made any viable claims of fraud and that the statute of limitations has expired for any civil conspiracy claims.
The motion also claims that the university and the athletic association are immune from such a lawsuit because they are government entities.
Bassett, Kentucky's former recruiting coordinator, filed his lawsuit in September. He has said the UKAA, the NCAA and the Southeastern Conference conspired to keep him from landing another college job.
The NCAA has also filed a motion for dismissal, NCAA spokesman Erik Christianson said Thursday.
Bassett's attorney, Robert Furnier of Cincinnati, did not immediately return a phone message left at his office Thursday by The Associated Press.
Bassett resigned in November 2000, shortly before the NCAA began investigating allegations of wrongdoing in Kentucky's program. In 2002, the NCAA placed Kentucky on probation for more than three dozen recruiting violations committed between 1998 and 2000. It banned the Wildcats from a bowl game for one season and ordered the
forfeiture of 19 scholarships over a three-year period.
Bassett, who worked for then-coach Hal Mumme, was found in violation of NCAA ethical conduct bylaws and was effectively banned from working for any NCAA school for eight years. At the time, Bassett acknowledged breaking NCAA recruiting rules.
Bassett said he was denied due process by the NCAA and the university during and after the investigation. Bassett is now the athletic director and football coach at a high school in Robstown, Texas, near Corpus Christi.
The UKAA said in its motion that Bassett's "only 'injury' is the direct result of his own misconduct" and that Bassett violated the university's personnel policy and his contractual obligation to abide by NCAA rules.
"Clearly, Bassett's complaints are really that he was allowed to 'dig his own grave' before the NCAA investigative and infractions hearing process began and that he thinks the NCAA penalty is too severe," the UKAA said.

Question: Packer Concrete Company pours concrete slabs for single family dwellings Wolff
Packer Concrete Company pours concrete slabs for single-family dwellings.

The sole use of verdejo grapes grown in the Rueda area in Spain, is the essential characteristic for this expressive wine. The bouquet is fresh with tones of exotic fruits, herbs and flowers. The perfect balance in structure and body is found, letting juicy acids arise for a vivid and crisp finish.
Serve with
Various (light) appetizers.
Preparation of the wine
The wine consists 100% of verdejo grapes. Due to the height and climate, the verdejo grape is full of character. It can be characterized as dry, fresh, and fruity. The harvest of the grape takes only place when it is perfectly ripe. After the harvest, Palacio de Bornos works hard to find the perfect balance between refinement and extract.
About: Palacio de Bornos
Wine region Rueda can be found in the north of Madrid. The landscape is determined by highlands, hills and is occasionally interrupted by a river. The ground is very fertile and the grape trees are able to grow perfectly. Rueda is known as a region where old and new traditions meet each other. The wines produced in Palacio de Bornos are made with utmost care.
About: Castilla-Léon
In the north of capital Madrid, we can find Castilla y Léon. In the middle of Castilla y Léon Rueda can be found. Rueda was known for its heavy sherry type of wines. However, with the increasing demand of lighter wines wine houses planted new types of grapes and use modern innovative techniques to provide light wines.

Setting your alarm couldn't be easier. Just slide your finger up and down the screen to adjust the time. The background will change to reflect the sky at your alarm time.
You can also tap above or below the time for finer control.
Sleepify makes falling asleep and waking up an enjoyable experience. You can choose separate music for falling asleep and waking up, so you can drift off to sleep with some relaxing tunes, while waking up with some songs to get you ready for the day ahead.
When you alarm is set, just tap 'sleepify' and your music will begin to play.
Your music will play for the length you set (default 30 minutes), and then will only stop when the current song has finished, avoiding a song stopping suddenly in the middle and waking you up!
You can customise Sleepify to suit your requirements:
We are always looking for ways to improve our apps, so if you have any suggestions of how Sleepify could be improved, we'd love to hear from you.

Dallas Rep Involved In Capitol Protest Over Gun Law
Marc Veasey, via a Periscope live feed, on C-SPAN.
Miguel Solis via Twitter
Marc Veasey, who represents a swath of southern Tarrant and Dallas Counties, was among the Democratic members of the U.S. House of Representatives involved in a sit-in on the House floor yesterday. The stunt was an attempt to force the chamber's Republican leadership to take a vote on so-called "no fly, no buy" gun-control legislation.
"Today I joined House Democrats in an unprecedented sit-in on the House floor, calling for immediate action on common-sense gun safety legislation to protect Americans nationwide," Veasey said in a statement. "No one law or set of laws will end horrific acts of violence, but Congress has an obligation to take action and make sure that terrorists and bad guys don't have easy access to guns in our country."
What Veasey and his colleagues in protest want is a ban on gun sales to people on the federal government's no-fly list. Such a ban would've prevented Orlando club shooter Omar Mateen from legally buying the AR-15 he used to carry out the 49 murders he committed. The members of Congress participating in the sit-in say they will not vacate the floor until a vote is taken.
The idea of "no fly, no buy" has critics on both the left and right. Critics stress that anyone can be placed on the no-fly list for almost any reason the federal government feels is necessary, as illuminated in a letter sent to senators by the American Civil Liberties Union. "Our nation's watchlisting system is error-prone and unreliable," wrote ACLU officials Hina Shamsi and Chris Anders. "It uses vague and overbroad criteria and secret evidence to place individuals on blacklists without a meaningful process to correct government error and clear their names."
Upcoming Events
Veasy didn't address the faults in the no-fly list, but instead aimed conciliatory comments at those defending weapon ownership. "As a native Texan, I can assure my constituents that responsible gun owners are not the target of our actions," Veasey said. "Instead, we are urging House Republicans to come together with House Democrats to finally pass common-sense laws to protect Americans from senseless violence."
After Democrats filibustered to force a vote on a similar bill in the Senate, Texas Republican Senator John Cornyn offered an amendment that would've flagged any gun purchase by someone on the no-fly list for up to three days of investigation. If it was determined that there was probable cause to stop the person from buying a gun, that person could be detained. Cornyn told reporters Monday that his amendment would've "kept terrorists off the street," but it was defeated 53-47.
The sitting Democrats appear set to remain on the floor of the House until someone does something to remove them. Wednesday night, Ryan made a failed procedural attempt to break the sit-in, but he has been unwilling so far use his authority under House Rule 1 to have the House Sergeant at Arms physically remove the sitting representatives.

Reese Witherspoon was in a chic denim dress to run errands in LA Monday, and yesterday she wore red to meet up with friends to visit the Vince boutique in West Hollywood. She may have picked up some new fashionable finds, but the actress was still accessorized with a walking cast. Reese hurt her foot by twisting her ankle, and her rep says that it's a minor injury and that she'll be as good as new soon. The inconvenience didn't get in the way of Reese celebrating Mother's Day with her family over the weekend. She, along with her husband Jim Toth and kids Ava and Deacon, went to church on Sunday morning before enjoying time together.

She's wearing "the boot" for a sprained ankle? Must be pretty painful.
geez, look at the psychos in the window behind her lol
I've got my eyes closed, I'm not reading the blurb,; don't tell me, let me guess. She's either shopping or going to eat or shopping before or after eating. I'd like to shop her dumpster unless she keeps building new closets.

During the colonial era, little was done toimprove Africa's infrastructure; in fact, according to Jean-Philippe Platteau, "insome important respects, it can even be said that colonial policy reinforced the handicaps of SSA [Sub-Saharan Africa]" (p. 200). The limited infrastructure built during that era was driven by the objective of connecting natural resources to export markets. For example, Platteau notes that "two-thirds of the African railways built in the colonial period connected mines to a coastal harbor" (p. 200). The rest of the continent was virtually ignored; accordi

For a color-constant observer, a change in the spectral composition of the illumination is accompanied by a corresponding change in the chromaticity associated with an achromatic percept. However, maintaining color constancy for different regions of illumination within a scene implies the maintenance of multiple perceptual references. We investigated the features of a scene that enable the maintenance of separate perceptual references for two displaced but overlapping chromaticity distributions. The time-averaged, retinotopically localized stimulus was the primary determinant of color appearance judgments. However, spatial separation of test samples additionally served as a symbolic cue that allowed observers to maintain two separate perceptual references.
