Lane Kiffin Press Conference
January 13, 2010 by USA Post
Lane Kiffin Press Conference:On June 8, 2009 the Raiders organization issued a statement about Lane Kiffin in Tennessee:
"Lane Kiffin is a flat-out liar. He lied to the team, he lied to the fans, and he lied to the media. He will try to destroy that university like he tried to destroy the Raiders…"
Sounds like Herrera, but also sounds like Al Davis.
Before that, Al Davis had his famous press conference denouncing Kiffin as well.
This is breaking news; I cannot furnish the reader with Vol's contractual details just yet. ESPN just interrupted some basketball game every five minutes for the last 20 minutes to broadcast this.
Kiffin's OC: Norm Chow.
Kiffin's DC: His legendary father, Monte, of the greatest Buccaneers eras.
USC picked up what appeared to be a large package.
Al Davis was right. Upon multiple accusations he made at his "crazy" press conference, one was that Lane was getting Al to tamper with Tampa Bay in recruiting Monte Kiffin. That is something Al Davis wouldn't do, he snarled.
The other accusation was Lane Kiffin feeding lies to ESPN and Chris Mortenson, which I believe to be true, since Al Davis cryptically alluded to monitoring Kiffin's company cell phone.
But, for you Al Davis haters, would also seem to tarnish Davis in this sordid affair as well and confirm his control freak tendencies.
You'll get better and more informed stories than this, believe me. This is breaking and confirmed my suspicion that the old man was completely in his right mind—albeit more feeble and physically appearing as an 80-year-old—during that historical, one of a kind press conference.
The only thing Kiffin said (it was actually Al Davis who said Kiffin said it) that may have merit is, "I can't win with Jamarcus Russell."
Kiffin also talked generously to the press (google it, it's recent) with a whole-hearted endorsement of Tom Cable as head coach, especially towards Cable's character in the midst of all the ESPN smear job concerning his past.
All the dust is settling right now and there are too many mixed messages from every party involved. I never felt Al was crazy in that press conference, and a lot of what he had to say about Lane Kiffin is evidently true.

About this page
Lesson on 'be going to'. Now 'will' is an important word to talk about the future. We can also use 'going to' to talk about future plans. We can ask questions using 'What are you'. We can say "What are you going to do tonight?" and answer 'I am going to watch TV or 'I am going to study." or "I am going to do my homework". Notice we use the 'be' verb before 'going to'. For example, 'I am going to study tomorrow – You are going to study tomorrow – He/She is going to study tomorrow

NOT MUCH could be done to relieve the pain felt by the families and friends of the 10 people Dennis Rader tortured and killed. But the 10 consecutive life terms he received last Thursday is a start.
Rader, who called himself BTK ("bind, torture and kill"), began serving his sentence immediately in a maximum security prison. Because Kansas didn't have a death penalty when the crimes occurred, this twisted creep escaped real justice.
His victims ranged from children to an elderly woman, and the killings fueled his sick fantasies. Only a monster could seek pleasure through the taking of someone's life, and Rader accurately described himself that way in testimony last week.
Prosecutors have asked that Rader be barred from seeing or listening to news reports regarding his murders, prohibited from possessing anything with which he could draw or write about his sexual fantasies, and not be allowed to make audio or visual recordings other than for law enforcement purposes.
That's the least the judge can do. Keep him in a cage where he belongs.
Let him spend his remaining years pondering what kind of animal could destroy 10 lives in such a callous way and continue to live what his family and friends thought was a normal life.
The pain remains for the families of his victims, but there should be some comfort in knowing that no one else will ever again have to suffer at his hand.
Sooner or later, justice will have its way with Dennis Rader.

DOMESTIC POLICY INTERDEPENDENCE: ANALYSIS OF DAIRY POLICIES IN THE UNITED STATES AND THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITY IN THE 1980s
This paper compares domestic dairy policies In both the United States (US) and the European Community (EC) and examines the Impact of these policies on each respective dairy Industry in order to explore domestic policy Interdependence. The EC and the US have Similar goals of improving farm income and use similar price support policies to achieve these goals These policies have historically encouraged overproduction, generated surpluses and government stocks, and resulted in large government expenditures. Both have followed a mixed surplus disposal strategy with one key difference--the EC has used export subsidies to dispose of part of Its surplus on the world market. In the mid 1980s, both the US and the EC took strong action to confront these problems. The EC's marketing quota and commitment to reducing its stockpiles ultimately affected the world market as its exports fell in 1989. As a result, US stocks virtually disappeared, US prices Increased substantially and US surplus disposal programs ended By recognizing the policy linkage of EC domestic policy through the international market on US stockpiles, policymakers can choose policy Instruments more precisely.

How Hot is Too Hot? A Structural Assessment of Fire Damaged Buildings
David P. Amori
So far this year, the topic of wildfires has gained national attention across the U.S. In May, the Springs Fire in California threatened 4,000 homes and destroyed 24,250 acres. In June, the record-breaking Black Forest Fire in Colorado destroyed 14,280 acres and about 500 homes and caused an estimated $85 million in damages. The devastation from the unprecedented Rim Fire that burned in and around Yosemite National Park in August and September is still being calculated, but it already ranks as one of the worst wildfires in history.

Failure Analysis
Figuring Out the Frozen Pipe Claim
David P. Amori
According to the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS), plumbing supply failures are the leading source of residential water losses-almost 50 percent greater than the second-leading source. Many of these are caused by broken pipes that result from water that gets trapped inside them and freezes.

When It's Not Hail
David Amori
Every spring and throughout the summer, much of the U.S. is subjected to thunderstorms that produce damaging hail. Property damage can manifest in several forms: broken windows, damaged roof top equipment, and roof damage. With a residential roof replacement starting at several thousand dollars and a commercial roof at tens of thousands, functional roof damage is probably the largest expense exposure for most buildings.

Structural Deficiencies in Roof Collapses Can Lead to Subrogation Opportunities
EFI Global - David Amori
Roof collapses can be sudden, catastrophic events caused by a particular loading condition or combination of loads. Roof collapses often happen with little or no warning, making this a particularly dangerous event. When investigating a roof collapse, the obvious perpetrators are examined: how much snow was on the roof, were the drains plugged up, were the winds in excess of the design wind speed and many others. Occasionally, the roof can be doomed to collapse months or years before an event due to design or construction related deficiencies allowing for a subrogation opportunity to recover cost of repairs.

Squaring the Slab: An Engineering Perspective on Evaluating Foundations for Reuse
EFI Global - David Amori & Michele Bogdon
Often after an event like a tornado, windstorm, water surge, or fire, the damage sustained to some property structures exceeds the value of it. In these cases, an engineer might be asked to determine if the remaining foundation system is suitable for reconstruction. The motivation for this is fairly straightforward: the property may have been underinsured and saving the foundation represents an effort to reduce the reconstruction cost, or there is a desire to get the structure rebuilt as quickly as possible. In the interest of time and money, an evaluation of the suitability of the foundation for reuse can be performed. There are three main questions for the engineer to answer: Is the slab damaged by the event? Are there any other factors, such as differential foundation movement, that would prevent the slab being reutilized? Are there any code considerations that prevent the slab from being reutilized?

Assessment of Wind Damage to Commercial Roofing
David Amori
In the wake of a Hurricane the monumental task of beginning to assess the losses and respond to the thousands of claims inevitably includes a number of claims concerning the functional assessment of commercial roofing systems. The design and construction of a roof system requires input from several disciplines including thermal considerations (Mechanical), fire resistance (Architect/Municipality), equipment carrying capacity (Structural), ability to drain and/or to store water (Architect/Civil), aesthetics, and the ability to resist any number of transient loads (Structural). The assessment of the damage sustained by a roof system during a storm event is an equally broad endeavor requiring the expert to call on a number of disciplines.

Precarious Foundations: Storm Damage or Construction Defect?
David Amori
Building envelope assessments for storm-related damage is a normal part of job for the property adjuster and forensic consultant. The assessment of storm-related damage inevitably becomes a question of whether the observed condition pre-dates the storm or is the result of sudden and recent event. In fact, the question may very well be, "Did the observed condition exist during or even before the building was constructed; is the condition the result of a construction or design related defect?"

The fire service, EMS and law enforcement may typically be assumed to be wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), but exposure to post fire hazards should be considered for those entering the property and performing work well after the fire event.

Mr. Pokorny and Mr. Penaloza discuss the "green insurance" programs and policies, LEED concerns for commercial claims and the expertise required to investigate "green claims" on these types of properties. Green building practices have grown annually, adding complexity to the analysis of construction projects, building systems, and building performance expectations. These efforts add a significant level of due diligence and the necessary expertise in responding to 'green claims' on the insurance products serving those properties.

PCBs in Building Materials & the Implications for the Construction Industry
Keith Pokorny
Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) are present is a variety of building materials and may present a significant impact to construction projects. The presence of PCBs in caulking, sealants, paints, adhesives and other building materials dates from the 1930s to the banning of PCBs in domestically manufactured products in 1979. In that time period, however, PCBs were added to hundreds of building products due to their chemical stability, nonflammability, insulating properties and high flash point.

Owners Delay of Payment on Change Orders Causes Serious Problems
Gogulski & Associates, Inc.
Attorneys often say that if Contractors just followed the terms of their contract, they would not have so many problems with payment of Change Orders. That is easy to say, but as a practical matter, it does not work that way. While clauses in the contract require submittal of estimates and approval before proceeding, most Change Orders impose an unstated requirement for immediate implementation, thereby contradicting some of the terms stated in the same contract. Failure to proceed usually results in delay, additional costs, and sometimes puts the entire project at risk.

Our first time renting a vacation house. We only looked at smaller rentals since it was just two of us. This house could easily accommodate a family. House was reasonably well maintained and clean. It took a day to figure out the right light switches! It's a short walk down the street and on a path to the beach. Beach it pretty quiet, no crowds, and very relaxing. The house has an umbrella, chairs, etc downstairs.
Overall, everything went smoothly with the rental and we would considering coming back again.
We spent one week at "By the Sea" and loved every minute of our stay. An easy 4 minute walk, our family spent most of the time on the beautiful beach. Hours and hours were spent snorkeling for shells and sea creatures (which we threw back in the ocean, of course.) When not on the beach, we enjoyed riding two blocks to "town" as well as throughout the quaint neighborhood on our bikes with our daughters (ages 7 &11.) Our girls' favorite activity was returning home from the beach with hundreds of shells and spending time in the outdoor shower, inspecting their new finds. This home is decorated beautifully with such attention to detail, so comfortable and immaculately clean. We definitely hope to rent this beach house again in the future.
This is an adorable house, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Excellent location, only a short walk to the beach, to Andy Ross Ln. (Captiva Downtown) and to a couple of marinas. We had a minor issue with the cable when we arrived and it was immediately solved with the help of Tom - the house caregiver -. I highly recommend this house. I hope we will be back to Captiva Island in the near future and this house will be still available for rent.
This was our second trip to Captiva and found this cottage to be just a wonderful place for a relaxing week's vacation. The location on Chapin Lane was perfect - close to everything yet on a quiet street. We brought our bikes along and rode them every day - it's a great ride down to the beach at Blind Pass or up to the north end of Captiva. The house is very well equipped and the nautical decor is so detailed we felt almost like we were on our sailboat. Note that if you are planning to cook the only somewhat large market is down on Sanibel - Jerry's Market. We're hoping the owners may consider adding a swimming pool - then the house would be absolutely perfect! We highly recommend this rental home.
This is the perfect house. Beautifully appointed and decorated. The two porches and den/ bedroom give lots of extra areas for people to hang out in. The location, on a quiet street so close to the beach and restaurants couldn't be better. It was everything we wanted. We wouldn't stay anywhere else on Captiva.
This was the perfect cottage for my family! It was within walking distance to almost everything in Captiva. The beautiful beach was less than a block away and the shelling here was better than on Sanibel. The house was beautiful and was bigger than we expected based on the photos. Very relaxing...loved it!
Caminhe até McCarthy ou Jensen Marina, onde você pode organizar cruzeiros marítimos, observação da vida selvagem, golfinho / observação de baleias, pesca em alto mar. Belo pôr do sol, a passos de sua porta.

Hi friends.
How ya doing?
Happy Tuesday.
I woke up with a wretched sore throat.
For the sake of honesty, I am just going to throw something out there.
Gentlemen, you might want to skip ahead a few lines....
Ladies, is it just me, or do any of you seem to get sick (whether sinus stuff or cold...) right around that time of the month?
I would say about 1/4 of the time during the year, I get the sniffles or just full blown sick a few days before I start.
Ugh, why?!
What about y'all?
As I type, I am sipping on a warm cup of coffee...and I've already gargled with salt water this morning...and taken some Claritin...and other sinus medication....
So maybe this will get nipped in the bud.
I hate to admit it...okay, maybe not hate...because honestly...I am a fan of....
The Kardashians.
Yes. I know.
Don't judge.
Other than their obvious beauty, I am most
obsessed with jealous of their hair.
I love it.
Right now I am trying desperately to grow my hair to reach that long length they are famous for....
But, the other night, I happened upon a pinterest hair video showing how to get "their look."
So, I thought, "Why not?...I can do that. Seems easy enough."
Um, yea.
I am completely curling iron stupid. I honestly can't work it. It's as if all hand-eye coordination goes out the window. It's why I choose to go have my hair done if we have to go to a wedding or other special occasions because I just can't do it.
Well, this experience wasn't really any different. What should have taken, maybe 20 minutes, took over an hour. And I got burned. Like 4 times.
Okay, I know that those of you curling iron blessed ladies out there are thinking, "It just takes practice!"
You are correct. I just hate practicing.
You might also be thinking, "Just use hot rollers!"
Yes, that is a good idea also. However, my hair is so thick I would have to buy 2 sets of those $90 hot rollers just to cover my head. Hey, I'm not complaining about my thick hair...I feel lucky, but dang, I'm not shelling out that kinda moola for some dang hot rollers.
And now that I've typed all this, this is quickly turning into a ridiculously long post about nothing.
So, onto pics of my first attempt at doing my hair in a while...
The hubs really liked it. And I liked it...but good grief was it a hot mess process.
Guess I just need more practice. And to wear pot holders....
Since the beginning of summer, I've been wanting to get on the chambray shirt train.
I saw one at the J.Crew outlet when we were at the beach, but just couldn't justify forking over the $68 for it.
So, a few weeks ago, I was at Old Navy and found one for over less than half that price.
So, I scooped it up.
Some people might not, but I really like the denim on demin look.
I think I'm going to get a lot of different looks out of this shirt. I bought mine at the Old Navy at Poplar and Highland...so go and get ya one if you like!
Onto the next...
Have any of you heard about GroopDealz?
It's sort of like Groupon, but with cutesty fun stuff.
I signed up for it, and I gotta say, I would order almost everything on here if I could...definitely some cute gift ideas...or just gifts for yourself!
I am also toying around with the idea of heading over to The Blowout in Germantown.
Such an awesome idea.
And definitely seems like a fun girls day/afternoon excursion.
Especially for curling iron-styling your hair-stupid girls like me.

Brief History:
__2012 – Studied abroad in Kyoto, Japan
__2010 – Started blogging and photography
__2008 – Started learning Japanese
—To be in Japan had always been a dream of mine. Throughout my childhood, I have continuously intertwined with Japanese popular culture by chance. During high school, a desire had developed and I made it my personal goal to be a part of Japan one day. At that time, I had already possessed elementary Japanese skills. As I dived deeper into what came to be my passions, my Japanese skills continued to mature, until well enough that in my first year of college, I studied abroad.
—With my study abroad, I got a taste of that dream of mine. I experienced many things: fun, enjoyment, jealousy, anger, sadness, loneliness, frustration, shock, adventure, hesitation, nervousness, worry, fulfillment, happiness. I realized that my goal of living in Japan will be a double-edged sword, and I accept that fact. Now, with my dream of living in Japan confirmed, I'm pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in design, while hoping to eventually build a bridge between myself and the land of the rising sun.

Flawless Passion is where I record my adventures and passions in life. The Japanese title is 流星の夜空の下で, meaning "underneath the starry sky of the shooting star".
This is just my way of tying my fascination with stars to this blog. There are two reasons why I made this blog:
1. As a place where I can share what I love with others that love the same things. Inspired by many great figure photographers, I soon begin wanting to take my own photos of my figures. My initial attempts yield decent photos, and I have continued to take photos of things around me ever since.
2. To recall upon my own journey through life. I could remember many things, but to take a photo is to keep that memory forever. The times that I cherish, the faces of family and friends, and the experiences that are but a flash in my lifespan, there is nothing more precious than those memories. I do not want to forget them. In a sense, this blog is almost an autobiography.
For the reasons above, this blog will never die. For as long as I have my passion, for as long as I want to remember.

2009 EAWRC Sprints schedule (PDF)
Directions to Cooper River
PHILADELPHIA - The Penn women's rowing team is looking to make a splash this weekend, as the EAWRC Sprints will be contested on the Cooper River in Camden County, N.J.
The course will later host the NCAA Championships, and third-year head coach Mike Lane is hoping this is the first of two trips the Quakers will have to make across the Delaware River in the next few weeks.
"This spring we have tasted success, but we have also fallen short a few times," he said. "The nice thing about this sport is that, on Sunday, every crew arrives at the start line equal. All of our crews are in position to be successful on Sunday.
"The last three weeks have allowed us to make some changes, but also continue to build on our successes."
Penn's varsity boat will certainly have its hands full trying to get to the grand final for the second year in a row. The Quakers' heat, slated for 9 a.m., features seventh-ranked Princeton and 15th-ranked Harvard. It is the only heat of the three that features two ranked teams. Cornell, who Penn beat by five seconds on the Schuylkill River in April, is also in Penn's six-boat heat.
Last year, of course, the varsity eight reached the final for the first time since 1991 and had its best finish (fifth) since 1982. The novice 4 finished second and the varsity 4 placed fourth, and as a team Penn scored 43 points to take sixth in the Willing Point Trophy race. Penn's most recent Sprints title came in 2007, in the second novice 8.
"Our successes over the past few years are a testament to the hard work and dedication of our athletes," said Lane. "I have faith that on race day our athletes will leave everything on the water."

Many women in Afghanistan are subjected to violence, oppression and poverty every day. A 3D printed metal pendant helps to raise awareness of one Afghani woman's protest.
On March 7th 2015, Kubra Khademi walked down a street in Afghanistan wearing protective armor, to make a statement about the mistreatment and oppression of women in her country.
However, her walk against harassment and violence was disturbed after only eight minutes as she faced abuse on the streets, including having insults thrown at her and even being groped.
She was forced back into her car, and had to be taken away and fled to a secret hiding place for months as she received death threats because of her feminist protest.
"I knew there would be this kind of reaction, but I didn't realise it would be so extreme," she told The Guardian, "I can't even go to my house. I wonder how long it will be before I can go back there, and it makes me sad."
Walk with Kubra Khademi: 3D Printed Metal Pendant
Although a worthwhile cause, Kubra's activism has had very limited coverage in the media. This outraged the artist Jeremy Burnich, the founder of Joy Complex, so he decided to do something to help raise awareness by creating a stainless steel 3D printed pendant.
As he explains on the Shapeways product page:
"I created the "I Walk With #KubraKhademi Pendant" so that people can show solidarity with brave women like Kubra Khademi and raise awareness about her art and her struggles. This pendant is modeled on Kubra's armor – symbolic of what women have to endure around the world – from insults and cat calls in New York, to stones and death threats in Afghanistan."
The pendant is a miniature replica of the armor which Kubra wore, but the sales have not been as successful as Burnich had hoped. He said on his blog: "Sadly, I failed to sell a single one. But, last night out of the blue I was contacted by Kubra (who is currently in Europe). First via Instagram and then by email."
Kubra posted on Instagram: "I am in love with this design which is like my armor ! eventually I come across!"
If you'd like to support Kubra's plight, then head over to Shapeways where the pendants are being sold for $37.62. From each pendant sold, Burnich makes $20 USD, and profits from each sale will be donated to the charity Women for Afghan Women.

An unquenchable thirst for knowledge
By Truman Reed
Mbah a Moute shot a career-high .480 from the field last season and bumped that figure to .520 during the playoffs.
Gary Dineen/NBAE/Getty Images
When high school and college students enter the third year at their respective levels of schooling, many narrow their focus on completing their education and pursuing careers.
As Luc Richard Mbah a Moute begins his third season in the National Basketball Association, he will certainly be pursuing his career as passionately as he always has.
Fortunately for the Milwaukee Bucks, Mbah a Moute has an unquenchable thirst for knowledge - one that will undoubtedly extend his status as a student of the game beyond that of most of his peers.
Mbah a Moute averaged 6.2 points and 5.5 rebounds in his second pro campaign and helped the Bucks achieve a 46-36 regular-season record, their best since 2000-01.
The 24-year old Mbah a Moute also added playoff experience to his resume for the first time.
The 6-8, 230-pound forward upgraded his numbers to 9.1 points and 5.6 rebounds during Milwaukee's first-round series against Atlanta last spring, helping the Bucks push the Hawks to seven games.
Those seven playoff contests became a valuable crash course within the courseload of his education.
"I learned a lot, especially the way this series went," Mbah a Moute said. "After losing two games, you can learn from that. It's never over. Just playing hard, the team that comes out with a lot of energy has been the team that won a lot.
"You have to come out with a lot of energy and bring it every night. It's never going to be as easy as you think and it's never going to be as hard as you think."
Mbah a Moute believes the playoff experience was vital for the core of his team, too.
"It was very important," he said. "The biggest thing we have to worry about is taking a step back now. We have a good thing going right now. I'm sure management is going to do whatever they can to make us even better.
"We have to get better, each player has to get better. That's the way we're going to take this season and make it an even better season next year."
Before leaving Milwaukee to visit his native Cameroon this summer, Mbah a Moute vowed to keep honing his game.
"As far as my game, I have to get better," he said. "I'm going to work on my game, especially on the offensive end, and try to continue to work on my shot, develop a post-up game and continue to develop my game.
"Defensively, I have to watch some tapes and try to see where I can improve and be the best defender I can possibly be."
Mbah a Moute shot a career-high .480 from the field last season and bumped that figure to .520 during the playoffs. Coming off a rookie campaign in which he did not make a 3-point goal, he sank six of 14 (.353) in his second pro season, but he won't let his progress to make himself complacent.
He achieved four double-doubles and continued his excellence at the defensive end, leading the team in steals 13 times and in blocked shots on 10 occasions.
He knows the Bucks need him to continue to develop his offensive game.
"It's always been a big thing just having a more consistent jump shot for me," Mbah a Moute said. "It takes time, and I'm going to put the work in and continue to work at it. I have to be better at it. Next year, I will be better at it. That's for sure. I'll put the work into it this summer.
"Just my all-around game -- driving, ball handling -- I have to get that better, and I have to get some of my athleticism back to be able to finish down there with those big guys.
"If I'm able to do that, I should be fine next year."
Mbah a Moute won't let his work to become a better offensive player detour him from his quest to become one of the NBA's premier defenders.
He plans to continue to thrive in his role of stopper.
"I'm going to continue to embrace it," he said. "One of my goals is to hopefully be the Defensive Player of the Year one day in my career, and in order to do that, you have to take on the best. That's what you have to do.
"I have to continue to work on my game. I'll try to watch as much tape as I can so I know the guys and see what they're doing because guys develop and guys get better during the summer. Kevin Durant is not going to be the same player next year, so I have to try and be a better defender as well. That's the only way you improve.
"Hopefully that helps me and it helps the team and we become a better team."
The Bucks became a much better team during Mbah a Moute's second pro season than they were in his first, and he enjoyed watching Milwaukee respond to them, particularly during the playoff run.
"That was great," he said. "Man, just the atmosphere ... Game 7, we went to Atlanta, but it wasn't as loud as it was in Game 6 here. That's got to be the top. I've never seen anything or played in a game that loud. "We love those fans, the way they embraced us and supported us all season. We're going to need the same support again next year and even better. That's going to help us a lot."

"Life on Ward 10"
About: Wansbeck Hospital Wansbeck Hospital Ashington NE63 9JJ
Posted by Gwynne
I was originally admitted to Wansbeck Ward 10 on 1st February 2015, suffering from severe abdominal pain. From the outset the staff were friendly, supportive and very very caring. During my 10 day stay, I was made to feel like I was the only patient they had to deal with, nothing was too much trouble for either the Ward Sister, the nursing staff, the support staff, and even the domestic staff would go out of their way to ensure I was made comfortable. I wish I could name some of the nursing staff who were outstanding, but to me, they all were! On watching how they treated the more difficult patients, I was amazed at their constant care and concern towards these people, and where most people would have been driven to distraction, they maintained a friendly and professional air. I was very impressed. I later came back on March 3rd to have a major operation, and once again found myself on Ward 10. Not only did the staff remember who I was, but I was treated like a long lost friend. Again, I had nothing but the best care a patient could have. On my down days, they cheered me up, on my up days they cheered me on. I was encouraged at all levels and I believe it was this care that has me returned to almost full health at a much earlier stage. The Ward was spotless, and the domestic staff worked extremely hard to keep it that way, taking obvious pride in their work, and working with a fabulous cheerfulness. I hope I never have to receive intense medical care again, but if I do, I'm opting for Wansbeck. A millions stars to all of them, especially one Sister who was also supportive after I returned home and needed to speak to someone.
Response from Wansbeck Hospital 2 years ago
Dear Gwynne, Can I thank you for making my day by providing us with this delightful feedback. The level of care and attention you describe, the kindness and compassion of our nurses and the commitment of our hard working domestic staff - these are all things that really matter to us. I am so pleased that the team on ward 10 were able to deliver care in a way that enabled you to feel like you were the only patient on the ward - we know how important this is and difficult too sometimes when our wards are very busy. It is lovely to hear how ward 10 have this down to a fine art. I think my favourite line is the bit about when you were down they cheered you up and when you were up they cheered you on - fantastic stuff. I hope you don't mind if I steal it and use it again in one of our training sessions to describe the kind of care we want to provide to all our patients, always. It can be really tough recovering from major surgery so I hope this is going well for you. I'm glad the ward sister has already reached out to provide you with support when you needed it but please don't hesitate to come back to us if there's anything else you need. Thanks again - the team will gratefully receive your million stars and be thrilled to know what a difference they made. Annie

This idea came to me as I was watching The Avengers and saw The Captain throwing his shield around like an oversized frisbee.
Disclaimer: I do not own the characters only the idea. If I did well….
"Calm down will you? If we use normal ones Thor would either break them or throw them to Canada, and besides it'll be gone and back before he even suspects a thing." Tony replied confidently as he wrestled the ionic shield off its hooks and into an already stuffed bag.
"Ok so it's unbreakable by Thor, but he could still throw it to Canada, Cap will kill us if we lose his shield!"
"Cap would kill us if he knew we were here, but were still alive, so we just have to keep relying on Lady Luck." Tony said as he flung the bag over his shoulder.
"Now come on, I'm sure Natasha is waiting for you to lather her back in sunscreen."
Clint shot a glare at Stark's retreating back and throwing one last unsure glance at the now empty hooks turned to follow him.
Natasha smiled as she caught sight of her two teammates walking down the dune.
"Over here!" she shouted jumping up and down and waving her arms above her head stopping when she was certain they had spotted her.
"Took you long enough." She chided playfully when they were within earshot.
Clint gathered her in a hug and kissed her cheek, "Nice to see you too beautiful, sorry we're late Stark just had to grab something."
"And what was that?" Natasha asked warily turning to look, her eyes widening in shock and horror as Tony pulled Captain America's shield from the bottom of the bag.
"That." Clint deadpanned.
"Are you insane Stark? No, don't even answer, put that back in that bag and use a normal frisbee like a normal person Cap will kill you if he finds that his shield is missing!" Natasha hissed looking over her shoulder as if she expected Rogers to come thundering down the beach at any moment.
"Come on 'Tasha not you too!" Tony groaned, "It's bad enough with Legolas over there moaning and groaning, but you are a fearless assassin, look we'll play with the shield for a bit, put it back in the bag, swim, and put it back where it belongs. Cap doesn't find out its missing and we have some fun, no harm no foul right?"
"Ten minutes."
"Deal! Come on Thor!" Tony exclaimed triumphantly running down the beach, shield in hand.
"Why do I feel as if this will end badly?" Natasha sighed leaning against Clint.
"Probably because it will, now come on lets go find some shade." Clint replied, pulling her in the direction of the umbrella.
Tony groggily opened one eye wincing as the sun cut right across his cornea.
"Jarvis, what happened?" he moaned as he tried to get up.
"It seems sir that Mr. Barton and Miss. Romanoff were correct in their assumption about playing frisbee with Captain America's shield." The AI responded.
"So that's what happened?" a new voice rang out, "It looked like Loki used you as a baseball and the Empire State Building as his bat."
"Fury, always nice to see you."
Fury smirked as he sat down on the edge of the bed.
"You're lucky Stark, the Captain looked like he was about to tear off your head when they brought you in, what in the world were you thinking, taking his shield?"
"Thor couldn't break it."
Fury rolled his eyes upward as if asking what he did to be cursed with Tony Stark.
"Stark, you took the captain's shield, broke five ribs and got a concussion, all for the sake of not spending money at the dollar store for a couple hundred 50 cent frisbees?"
"Ummmm, yep that's about right."
"Wow Stark, rich and stupid." a familiar voice said.
Tony stiffened in alarm, as the captain came into view his shield on his arm.
Fury smirked at his expression, and got up.
"Well gentlemen I'll leave you too it, and Tony, next time just ask Coulson. I'm sure he can rustle you up something."
As he closed the door Fury shook his head and chuckled as he heard Tony start to ramble off some frantic excuse. The captain had actually taken the missing shield pretty well, but Stark didn't need to know that just yet.
'Maybe I'll end his misery in a couple of minutes or maybe not.' He thought as he caught sight of a freshly made peach cobbler in the mess hall.
So what do you think, like it, love it, hate it? Please review.

K-12 Apps for Effective mLearning
Cole Hatchard
The Elements
The Elements is an application that animates and presents every single one of the elements on the periodic table. By using exciting and appealing graphics and animations, learning the periodic table becomes fun and easy!
The Elements is an effective way to help students remember the most important elements by associating them with easy to remember pictures and animations. Rather than pure memorization, students can remember each element by accessing more visual parts of their brain to give them something to correlate it with throughout their career in chemistry.
iBooks is used for reading electronic books (eBooks) on the iPhone or iPad. Books can be purchased and downloaded from the eBook Store and immediately read on the device.
Allowing for easy, on-the-go reading, iBooks allows students to keep all of their literature and textbooks in one spot. Preventing issues like torn or lost pages, or even lost books, iBooks keeps everything on the device to allow for compact storage and access. The application has many aesthetic options, like changing the font size or colour as well as the ability to highlight and share passages across devices. All of this on top of having access to sharing everywhere via iCloud.
This application, named TED after the well-loved lecture and presentation series, TEDTalks, gives access to over 1000 of the most popular and interesting lectures available. These demonstrations are given by the world's leading experts and professionals in every area and give insight into hundreds of different topics.
For students, this application gives a great opportunity for supplementary lessons in areas that may require extra or other attention. By giving the option to hear from professionals in different areas, students can get a better perspective on certain topics as well as understand other concepts easier. Furthermore, TEDTalks are just plain cool, so who wouldn't want to watch them and learn a thing or two?
History: Maps of the World
History: Maps of the World is an online map tool that offers a visual on geographical and geopolitical changes over the course of history. From continental shifts to human conquests, this application gives images to help fully grasp the nature of how our earth has changed.
Personally, I would have adored this application throughout high school. In history class, as we learn about different events around the world, it is often difficult to memorize and imagine specific areas of interest which does not allow for a full understanding of the issue. By using this application, students can follow along in class, essentially in real time, as they witness the conquest of Alexander the Great across the known world, to the drastic changes in Europe and North America in the last 200 years.
Evernote is an amazing organizational tool to help keep all of your documents and files in order across all of your devices. As basically an App-of-all-trades, Evernote helps you get almost anything done on your device without getting messy or confused or misplacing items of interest.
In the classroom, Evernote can aid to replace conventional note-taking and file-sharing between students and teachers alike. Rather than have multiple notebooks for multiple classes, students can keep all worksheets and notes for every class in one spot on their device. Furthermore, it eliminates the hassle of trying to keep lockers, desks and backpacks organized by having a simple interface to allow for easy organization on the iPad itself.
