JT faces tough NS
Through the first two weeks of the season, the Jim Thorpe football team has relied heavily on its running game.
The Olympians have run the ball a total of 87 times for 427 yards in their victories over Tamaqua and Reading Central Catholic while attempting to pass on just 15 occasions.
It is easy to see from the numbers that Mark Rosenberger's first priority is to establish a running attack. The Jim Thorpe head coach will attempt to do the same this week. Except this time around it will be much, much tougher.
The Olympians will travel to North Schuylkill this Friday to compete in this week's Game of the Week. Both teams enter the contest 2-0 and are averaging 329 yards-per-game on offense. However, neither offense will be the most dominant group on the field. That honor belongs to the Spartans' defense.
"North Schuylkill's defense is extremely physical up front," said Rosenberger. "They have two of the best defensive ends in the area and their linebackers tackle very well. They are the 'real deal.'''
Returning to the Spartans' defensive line is Tyler Dean, Charlie Hutnick, Jon Green and Scott Yagielniskie. Linebackers Mike Shinkus and Ed Pavalko, who will also come up to the line and present different fronts, are the two great players that Rosenberger is referring to.
The Spartans' defense has yet to give up a point this season, as they blanked both Shenandoah (43-0) and Minersville (41-0). Only four other schools in eastern PA (one in District 11 - Mahanoy Area) have shut out their first two opponents.
While Jim Thorpe prefers to run the ball, North Schuylkill has surrendered just 98 rushing yards (175 total) thus far. Regardless, Rosenberger said his offensive philosophy will not change.
"We have to establish the run," Rosenberger said. "The other teams they have played have not been able to do that.
"It starts with us. We are more physical this year as compared to how we have been in the past. If we can get some yards on the ground and mix in the pass then I think we will be alright."
Shane Edwards will once again lead the Olympians' ground attack. The senior was the team's leading runner last week, tallying 110 yards and three scores on 22 carries. It was his second straight game with at least 100 yards and two touchdowns (26-116-2 vs. Tamaqua).
Along with having a great defense, the Spartans possess one heck of a ground game themselves. The senior tailback-fullback combination of Kody Flail and Pavalko spear-head District 11's third highest scoring offense (42 ppg). Flail leads the team with 329 yards and four TDs on 19 carries (17.32 avg). Pavalko had totaled 127 yards on 18 carries with both a rushing and a receiving score.
Scott Houser, another senior running back-slash-slot man, has contributed with 50 yards rushing and 72 yards receiving. He has a TD on the ground and through the air as well. Thanks to its three backs, along with its lop-sided scores, North Schuylkill has rarely passed. Quarterback Ryan Henning has attempted only 14 passes in two games.
"It starts up front for them," said Rosenberger. "Much like their defensive live, they are great athletes and are very physical up front. We have to be able to match that.
"With Houser, they have three tough runners. Their quarterback is big as well (6-5, 250) and can get some tough yards. We will add a few wrinkles on defense, but either way we will have to play fundamentally sound. You can't miss tackles against these guys."
North Schuylkill, the defending District 11 AA champs, will present a huge challenge for the up-start Jim Thorpe team. Although the Olympians lost 38-7 last year, they are looking forward to this year's challenge.
"We are excited," said Rosenberger. "Nobody on this side of the state thinks we can play with these guys, but we are going to give it our best shot.
"We have put ourselves in position to play in an exciting game. Last year we weren't in many exciting games because we didn't put ourselves in that position. We didn't play well enough. Right now, we feel real confident with how we have been playing and are looking forward to the challenge."

'The Death of Superman Lives' Trailer: See Nicolas Cage (Almost) Play the Man of Steel
Once upon a time, Nicolas Cage almost played Superman. In a movie directed by Tim Burton. From a script by Kevin Smith. Which was based on the iconic "Death of Superman" comic book storyline. And then it all fell apart, transforming it into one of Hollywood's greatest "What if?" narratives. 'Superman Lives' may have died before making it in front of cameras, but at least the new documentary 'The Death of Superman Lives' will give us an insider's look at what went wrong.

Actress Busy Philipps welcomed her second daughter this week, announcing the news via Twitter in a cute, humble post. Now the world wants to know what name the star mom will bestow upon her little one. Can anything compete with her older daughter's moniker: Birdie?
"So this happened..." Philipps tweeted on Wednesday, a day shy of Independence Day. A sweet, intimate photo of the actress accompanies the pithy birth announcement. In the shot, Philipps cuddles with her newborn daughter, who wears a simple, hospital-issued cap and blanket. Clearly, this photo was taken mere moments after the baby was born.
"Everyone is healthy and happy," Phillips's rep said in a statement to People magazine. The only other detail about the star tot that was available was that she weighed in at 8.5 pounds.
While I'm extremely happy for the Cougar Town star and her hubby, Marc Silverstein, that their little one has arrived, I'm beginning to feel like everyone is having their babies except for me! Like Kim Kardashian, Jessica Simpson, and now Busy Philipps, I am due in July. But my baby seems happy to stay put in my belly until further notice.
Of course, I still have a little time before my due date, but I am so ready to have this baby. Hey, honey if you are listening to Mommy, please know we are ready for you anytime you want to make your grand entrance.
Now it seems only Kate Middleton and I are left awaiting the arrivals of our babies. Sure the birth of the royal baby is a bit more highly anticipated worldwide but in my house, our third daughter's impending arrival is a pretty big deal! In fact, we can't wait to experience the same baby joy that Philipps and her family are no doubt enjoying now.
How would you describe how you felt right after your baby was finally born?

A senior Dutch diplomat was attacked in his home in Moscow by two men posing as electricians.
The elevator in Onno Elderenbosch's home was out of order when he returned home earlier this week, the BBC reports. Two electricians were repairing it as he entered the home, but as he opened the door to his apartment, they rushed in after him, beat him, and then tied him up. Russian news stations reported that the attackers drew a heart on a mirror in lipstick, with the letters LGBT.
According to the BBC, the attack may have been retaliation for the recent detention of Russian diplomat Dmitri Borodin in the Netherlands. He was being held under suspicion of mistreating his children. After protests outside of the Dutch embassy, an investigation, and President Vladimir Putin demanding an apology from the Dutch, it was declared that police breached the rules on Borodin's diplomatic immunity.

Main Moves
1. Squat and Swing
Targets hips, butt, and thighs
Stand with feet more than hip-width apart and hold handle with both hands, arms down, palms in. Sit back into a squat (A). Then press into heels, straighten legs, and thrust hips explosively upward to swing kettlebell up to shoulder height (B). Keep wrists in line with forearms. (Arms and shoulders should move as levers, rising and falling with momentum, as hips do the work.) As weight swings back between legs, squat. Repeat for 1 minute (about 45 swings). Next do single-arm swings, passing kettlebell from hand to hand at the top of each swing, for 1 minute (about 44 swings).
MAKE IT EASIER: Use a lighter kettlebell (or dumbbell) or no weight at all.
2. Pivot and Point
Targets shoulders and back
Stand with feet hip-width apart, palms together (prayer position) with handle hooked over thumbs, arms extended overhead (A). Turn on heels so entire body faces right side. (Keep head up, shoulders back, abs tight, and back straight.) At the same time, lower arms to shoulder height (base will rest on wrists) (B). Turn back to center, raising arms overhead. Repeat to left side. Alternate sides for 1 minute (about 20 reps).
MAKE IT EASIER: Skip the overhead portion. Hold weight in front of chest and extend arms to point to side as you pivot.
3. Lunge and Loop
Targets arms, abs, butt, and legs
Hold handle in right hand, arms at sides, palms in. Stand with right foot 2 to3 feet in front of left, toes pointing forward, back heel off floor. Bend knees, lowering toward floor, as you pass kettlebell under front leg to left hand (A). Then pass it over leg to right hand as you straighten legs (B). Continue for 30 seconds (about 18 loops), then reverse arm direction for 30 seconds. Switch legs and repeat.
MAKE IT EASIER: Just pass weight back and forth underneath leg each time you lunge instead of looping over the top.

I have no idea if she will stay faithful while she is gone and its probably not totally accurate for me to say that I do not care, but I am not consumed by those thoughts like I used to be.
I kinda miss having someone here, but I dont know that I miss having her here as it usually has some daily stress associated with it.
Did anyone here learn anything from separation? Are there things I should focus on or do while we are apart that might help me to better assess what to do with my M? I am kind of a loner, so I really dont want to go out much and probably wouldnt even if I Dd. I stay busy, but mostly with work and chores and random projects.
At first I was worried he would cheat again but then I figured that was on him and I shouldn't waste my time worrying about it.
The thing that sucks for me is all of the household responsibilities fall on my shoulders and that really sucks.
He didn't get away with it for as long as he thought, though and is not thought of as the same person now. He lost a lot of good people who cared genuinely about him, but none of it mattered when OW came along-he was willing to ruin his life and marriage.
I, too, am very alone and supposed to be "working on myself". I have learned things during this time and also not learned things, for there is much I don't understand. I've learned a lot about him and a lot about me and people in general...I see through him now-he helped me do that the hard way.
But, it's also showing who I am as a person and not part of a couple, where I was extremely overshadowed by him.
It is as you say, Joeboo, where it would be nice to have other adults around, but maybe not always him. Can't seem to even spit without being argued with. I am also a loner, FWIW, and dating is not something on my mind, though pure and deep lonliness is. Pets only go so far.
One thing I did come to understand is what I will and will not tolerate from him, and now from anyone, and before was basically walked on by many people.
I don't know if that helps at all, but I know what you mean.
A person is a person, no matter how small. -Dr. Suess
Perserverance and spirit have done wonders in all ages.
-George Washington
Use the time to reflect on what it has been like with her there as opposed to gone and see how it REALLY makes you feel deep inside.
~Indifference - Because some people do not deserve your emotions.~
I edit often because my tablet is possessed!
For me I could feel the calm come over me, the drama and dysfunction was out of the house. But I still needed to fill that time I literally spent emotionally cleaning up after everything.
Finding yourself is really learning to get back out in life again. Everyone needs either friends or family or people at work around them. I hope you learn to reach out to others and let them be a part of your life in small ways.
You have given more than enough material on how awful your wife has been and you have also stated that you don't want to leave out of fear and whatnot as well keeping the kids out of it...but you never touch on any reasons why your wife makes you stay. I know the bad she has done to make you consider leaving. I know the fears you have of leaving. But I don't know what she does for you day in and day out that makes you stay. Is there anything positive she does that makes you think "Ya, I can work with this"?
I guess it's not really a t/j because it's something to ponder while she is gone, but I've been wanting to ask this for a while. Sorry if me bluntly asking you this offends you.
Finding yourself is really learning to get back out in life again. Everyone needs either friends or family or people at work around them. I hope you learn to reach out to others and let them be a part of your life in small ways.
I get what you are saying though. I seem to get along well enough with people and most show me quite a bit of respect. But I should take the time to find venues that are suitable to me whether it be a hobby or volunteering. For now, it is more quiet than lonely and I think I need the calm right now. It is very therapeutic.
Maybe it shouldn't take so long to think about, but I don't have a very long list right now on why I am staying.
She can be a lot of fun to be around and as stupid as it sounds: with the exception of being a gaslighting promiscuous liar.
This describes my WH to a letter and it was difficult to finally say enough was enough. The reasons for ending the relationship simply started to outweigh the reasons for trying to keep it going and stay in it. Everyone has their own limit, and perhaps this time alone will give you a real opportunity to evaluate your own thoughts without the daily stress of her being there diverting those thoughts.

PATRICK DILLON eagerly awaits the return of EWA PODLEŚ to the Caramoor International Music Festival, in Rossini's Ciro in Babilonia.
Two kinds of prodigy — a composer and a performer — will be showcased in Caramoor's Ciro in Babilonia on July 7. Gioachino Rossini had just turned twenty when his "dramma con cori" had its premiere, in Ferrara in March 1812, but it was already his fifth opera. Ewa Podleś will be three times that age when she takes the stage of the festival's Venetian Theater in the title role, twenty-eight years after New York operagoers first encountered her, as Handel's Rinaldo at the Met. Since then, she's been more familiar here in concert and recital than on the opera stage; her only subsequent Met appearances came in 2008, when, in the small but pivotal role of La Cieca, she handily stole La Gioconda from house favorites Deborah Voigt and Olga Borodina. Europe has been luckier: in the past few years Podleś has played such stylistically varied roles as Cendrillon's "wicked stepmother," Mme. de la Haltière (Paris and London); Klytämnestra in Elektra (Warsaw and Nice); Quickly in Falstaff (Bilbao); and the Countess in The Queen of Spades (Monte Carlo and Barcelona). Her schedule suggests that she sings exactly where and what she chooses.
Happily for Podleś-addicted New Yorkers, the Polish contralto has a stalwart admirer in Will Crutchfield, the guiding spirit of Bel Canto at Caramoor, who cast her as Rossini's Tancredi in the summer of 2006 and as Azucena in Il Trovatore a year later. "Ewa has what the greatest of great singers have — a unique voice and the complete confidence to let her heart and soul speak through that voice," says the maestro of this favored prima donna. "The voice and the person are inseparable. Nothing is ever ordinary or perfunctory when she sings, and the public always feels this." It's easy to predict that they'll be feeling it this summer, not just at Caramoor but at the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro a month later, when Crutchfield and Co. take their fully staged show abroad for a "more fully staged" (in the conductor's words) run — Podleś's first complete opera performances in Rossini's birthplace.
Ciro — the Persian king Cyrus the Great, who overthrew Babylon's king Belshazzar in the sixth century B.C. — is one of several showy roles Rossini wrote for contralto Maria Marcolini, who by all accounts cut a fine figure in military travesty but also had the feminine charm to seduce a bey as the first Isabella in L'Italiana in Algeri. Like Marcolini, the prodigious Podleś has run the florid Rossinian gamut: her stage personae range from the alluring ladies (Isabella, Rosina) to the martial gents (Tancredi, Arsace in Semiramide). Ciro exploits two sides of Podleś's voice and technique — the deep, dark, primal beauty in andante (I'll never forget a time-stopping performance of Dido's lament at Carnegie Hall) and the blazing pyrotechnical dazzle in allegro. "The role of Ciro itself is quite modest," says Podleś. "Like Tancredi, for instance, and that's why you can expect some ornamentations and embellishments. Will Crutchfield, known as a true expert in those matters, has already provided me with some very interesting ones. Of course, I'll adapt them to my possibilities and taste. I am looking forward to working with Will.... I can say that he serves the music rather than just conducts it."

A Slow War On Human Trafficking
By JULIA C. MEAD
Published: May 28, 2006
FOR at least three years, the United States Department of Justice has identified Long Island as one of 21 regions across the country where trafficking in human beings -- abducting or coercing people, usually illegal immigrants, into a kind of indentured servitude -- is rampant. In 2005, the Justice Department awarded more than $1 million in grant money to combat the problem in Nassau and Suffolk.
But more than a year after the Long Island Anti-Human Trafficking Task Force was organized, not one trafficker operating on Long Island has been arrested, and just one victim, a Chinese woman forced to work in a Wantagh brothel that was disguised as a massage parlor, has been freed from traffickers.
Officials of the task force offered a variety of explanations for what they acknowledged were scant results on Long Island. Trafficking investigations are complex and time-consuming, they said, and they depend on testimony from victims who are terrified of the police. That the New York criminal code includes no statute specifically aimed at human trafficking further complicates their efforts, they said.
So the task force has spent the last year training police officers, sharing intelligence and fine-tuning mechanisms for amassing evidence, the officials said. ''I do expect that there are big cases coming soon,'' said Demetri M. Jones, an assistant United States attorney and the chairwoman of the task force.
In addition to the Justice Department, the task force includes three other federal agencies -- the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Immigration and Customs Enforcement division of the Homeland Security Department, and the Labor Department -- and the State Department of Labor, the Nassau and Suffolk police departments and district attorney's offices, and two private organizations, Safe Horizon and Catholic Charities.
Each of the county police departments got $360,000 from the federal government last year for training. Catholic Charities, which helps victims gain legal residency and find jobs and housing, and Safe Horizon, a New York City-based national organization that trains nongovernmental agencies to assist victims, received grants totaling about $400,000 for their efforts.
Just how big is the problem they are trying to combat? Florrie Burke, a senior director at Safe Horizon, responded to the question with a deep sigh. ''We don't know for sure,'' she said. ''And that's true anywhere.''
Ms. Burke said Long Island is a natural location for human trafficking because of its proximity to New York City, where a number of cases have been documented, and to the airports and seaports where immigrants arrive.
''But it's all supposition, and that's what all locations are, until you find a real case,'' she said.
Safe Horizon did find one case on Long Island, but it was in 2001, long before the task force was formed. The group's tip to federal authorities eventually led to the arrests in June 2004 of Mariluz Zavala and her husband, Jose Ibanez, who pleaded guilty last winter to federal crimes including conspiring to obtain forced labor. They are now in prison.
Prosecutors said the couple charged would-be immigrants up to $13,000 each to be smuggled into the country from Peru using phony tourist visas, and then forced them to live in cramped, squalid conditions in houses in Coram, Brentwood and Amityville and to hand over their passports and almost all their earnings, under the threat of being turned in to immigration officials.
Despite the precedent of that case and the rapid growth of Long Island's Hispanic immigrant population, county police officials said their efforts are concentrated mostly on massage-parlor brothels run by and employing Asians. Nassau has raided two dozen in the past year; Suffolk has raided eight.
''We're cleaning up the community,'' said Capt. Steven Skrynecki, the Nassau police representative on the task force. ''And while we're doing that, a secondary motive is to look for and rescue the victim.''
As a result of those raids, police officials contend that a majority of human trafficking victims on Long Island are young Asian women who are forced to live in unhealthy conditions, work long hours and surrender all or most of their earnings.
By their very nature, they cannot be counted with any accuracy. But private groups estimate that as many as several hundred people may be laboring under duress or in captivity in Nassau and Suffolk, working in restaurants and sweatshops, on farms, as house cleaners or as prostitutes.
The one victim that the task force has rescued is a 37-year-old woman from China, where the government generally penalizes couples who have more than one child. The woman, who asked to be identified only by her nickname, Tracy, because she fears retaliation, said she fled China in May 2000, leaving behind her husband and son, after government officials forced her to abort her second child and undergo sterilization.
''I had nowhere else to go,'' she said in an interview, aided by a police interpreter.

Vehicle2007 Jeep Compass Limited 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
ReviewPurchased Compass ~1 week ago after looking at many other small SUVs. Traded in a Toyota Prius as I needed 4WD for northeast winter driving. The pricing was acceptable, being less than most SUV models. The engine seems strong for a 4 cylinder. Lots of safety equipment as standard equipment. Like the lock in 4WD option and the manual shift. On the negative side, however, I'm disappointed in fuel economy averaging only about 23 mpg highway. The vehicle is truly a compact SUV. Not much leg room in rear seating area. Very limited cargo space. Several blind spots w/ solid head rests in rear seats. Front cup holders are inaccessible. Build quality is suspect with lots of hard plastics.
Best FeaturesStandard side curtain air bags, traction control, and ESP (stability control). Lock in 4WD. Manual shift. Leather heated seats. 18" wheels provide ample clearance. American made and a Jeep!
Worst FeaturesGas mileage is disappointing for a 4 cylinder. Replace solid rear seat head rests with type used in front seats. Equip with gas fill compartment latch. Move front cup holders so that they are easily accessible. Design rear cup holders to be folded up/hidden. Standard equipment to include roof rack cross bars.

Pangolin Delivers Increased Speed, Rotation, Response, and Control While Reducing Cost by a Third
Long dissatisfied with the speed and control limitations of rotary actuators used in laser scanning and other optical and lighting applications, Pangolin Laser Systems, the world's leading producer of laser show software and control hardware, announced the introduction of a low-power rotary actuator based on an innovative, dual-coil, segmented stator design. The new VRAD-1510 significantly increases the speed, range of rotation, response, and precision of motor shaft movement while reducing the actuator's cost by at least one-third compared to existing devices.
According to Pangolin CTO and co-founder William Benner, the VRAD-1510, while conceived for use in high-speed laser scanning and lighting gear, is sufficiently versatile and low-cost that it can be used across a wide range of electro-mechanical applications, including mechanical and automotive systems, industrial and commercial machinery, robotics, vending, HVAC, valve control, and other uses. Rotary actuators are also commonly referred to as rotary solenoids and torque motors.
"We developed a novel and inexpensive way of producing a segmented stator without air gaps, which interfere with a motor's magnetic field," said Benner. "Additionally, our design employs two, separately-accessible coils and several other innovations and quality features, resulting in a compact, very quiet, very durable, low-power actuator. Its linear angle versus current profile is a major advancement."
According to Benner, the VRAD-1510 (pronounced VEE-rad) employs a magnetic spring and pre-loaded precision ball bearings for extreme durability. The new design also precludes the need for mechanical stops on shaft rotation, all but eliminating noise, wear, and vibration, while enabling a wider range of potential applications. The range of shaft rotation is greater than +/- 60 degrees from the neutral position.
The actuator's coils may be driven in series, in parallel, or separately, stated Benner. "This opens up many options in how the device can be employed," he said, "For example, instead of using two coils to produce torque, one can be used for velocity sensing or dynamic breaking."
In another design innovation, Benner said, Pangolin equips the actuator with front and rear shafts, allowing multiple points of attachment or the use of an encoder or position sensor for closed loop operation.
He said the key innovation is Pangolin's patent-pending stator design, which uses a series of asymmetrical, interleaved laminations that are inexpensive to make, easy to assemble, and which fit together in a way that prevents the introduction of air gaps to the motor's magnetic field. "VRAD is a game-changer," said Benner. "By rethinking the stator design, we've developed a more versatile, compact, and durable rotary solenoid that we are manufacturing at much lower cost than competing products."
According to Pangolin, the VRAD-1510 is configurable to customer specifications of all key parameters, including torque factor, magnetic spring stiffness, coil resistance and inductance, shaft diameter and length, bearing pre-load, and temperature operating range The VRAD-1510 has a rectangular-shaped stator with exterior dimensions of 1.5"w x 1.0"h x 1.5"D.

Ochocinco is coming home !
Love him or hate, but Chad Ochocinco is now a Miami Dolphins. The very mediocre Dolphins receiving core gets a very interesting facelift!
While there will be sceptics, including myself who is not sure how I feel about the move but none the less the circus is coming to town. Chad certainly a character is a player who comes to work everyday, puts his all in his game and certainly now has a lot to prove after a year of falling off the face of the earth despite playing with the leagues best QB.
Ocho has all the talent in the world and he has been an elite receiver most of his career. With the weak receiving core Ocho will be given an opportunity that he still has a little bit left in the tank. Ocho most likely has enough experience and talent to secure a roster spot and wouldn't even be surprising if Chad made his way into the starting line-up this year.
While Chad might be a diva receiver his work ethic can not be questioned. He should help develop a few of the Dolphins younger receivers develop their game will competing to make the starting roster.
Chad broke the news himself through OCNN ( his new network) that he had signed a one year deal with the Dolphins.
It will be very interesting to see how Chad meshes with this team but we will get to see it for ourselves as I am sure he will be a features part of Hard Knocks this year.
Well, there you have the Dolphins add another weapon, there is a potential for this to be a great success and there is a chance that Chad doesn't even make the roster, time will tell, but it is exciting for Dolphins fans in the meanwhile.
Per PFT, Ochocino's one-year deal likely is worth $975,000, with a cap charge of only $540,000 under the CBA.
@BenVolinPBP: Ocho also got $0 signing bonus and $0 guaranteed. But full $925k salary is guaranteed if he is on Week 1 roster

California Mathematics Council - Northern Section (CMC-North)
Modeling Mathematics from Many AnglesDecember 6 - 8, 2013
Learn more about the Math Forum:
Strategic Uses of Technology to Promote Conceptual Understanding
Description: Many topics in math seem difficult to address conceptually and tend to be taught procedurally. We'll explore technology tools that encourage students to "notice and wonder", talk about and make sense of mathematical situations, and develop conceptual understanding of triangle properties, linear equations, systems of equations, factoring trinomials, calculus concepts, and more. Participants should bring iPads and laptops if possible.
Sense Making? Aren't We Already Doing That in Literacy?
Description: The very first Mathematical Practice, "make sense of problems", includes many ideas that have long been foci of literacy instruction. Yet when "math" starts, both teachers and students often leave those good habits behind. We'll look at examples of this and explore how to translate literacy routines into good mathematical practices.
Moving Beyond the Right Answer
Description: What happens when we give students solutions and engage them in an activity where the focus is shifted from solving a problem to reflecting on methods used by others to solve the problem? We'll experience this and discuss how to create similar activities from different resources. Activities that offer a variety of problem-solving strategies provide the scaffolding for students to develop how they make sense of problems, develop additional problem-solving methods, & persevere in solving problems.
Notice & Wonder: Engage in Formative Assessment of Mathematical Thinking
Description: The Notice and Wonder approach to problem solving has gained popularity for overcoming anxiety and for connecting to student thinking. This workshop will share professional development activities that take this strategy beyond engagement to develop reasoning and an explicit focus on the Mathematical Practices of the CCSS.
Becoming Better Reasoners: Supporting Students to Develop as Problem-Solvers
Description: How do we move students along the continuum from novice to expert problem solvers? We'll explore strategies such as Solve a Simpler Problem, Look at Cases, Make a Table, and Make a Model, exploring what it means to get better at each. We will solve problems together and use our own work and student work to practice recognizing novice versions of strategic thinking, as well as discuss activities and teacher moves that can help students see problem solving as a process they can get better at.

Harry Styles: Singer Opens Up About Famous Flings, Honest New LP
One Direction's Harry Styles goes deep on love, family and his heartfelt new solo debut in our revealing feature.
January 2016. There's a bench at the top of Primrose Hill, in London, that looks out over the skyline of the city. If you'd passed by it one winter night, you might have seen him sitting there. A lanky guy in a wool hat, overcoat and jogging pants, hands thrust deep into his pockets. Harry Styles had a lot on his mind. He had spent five years as the buoyant fan favorite in One Direction; now, an uncertain future stretched out in front of him. The band had announced an indefinite hiatus. The white noise of adulation was gone, replaced by the hushed sound of the city below.
The fame visited upon Harry Styles in his years with One D was a special kind of mania. With a self-effacing smile, a hint of darkness and the hair invariably described as "tousled," he became a canvas onto which millions of fans pitched their hopes and dreams. Hell, when he pulled over to the side of the 101 freeway in L.A. and discreetly threw up, the spot became a fan shrine. It's said the puke was even sold on eBay like pieces of the Berlin Wall. Paul McCartney has interviewed him. Then there was the unauthorized fan-fiction series featuring a punky, sexed-up version of "Harry Styles." A billion readers followed his virtual exploits. ("Didn't read it," comments the nonfiction Styles, "but I hope he gets more than me.")
But at the height of One D–mania, Styles took a step back. For many, 2016 was a year of lost musical heroes and a toxic new world order. For Styles, it was a search for a new identity that began on that bench overlooking London. What would a solo Harry Styles sound like? A plan came into focus. A song cycle about women and relationships. Ten songs. More of a rock sound. A bold single-color cover to match the working title: Pink. (He quotes the Clash's Paul Simonon: "Pink is the only true rock & roll colour.") Many of the details would change over the coming year – including the title, which would end up as Harry Styles – but one word stuck in his head.

Army Research Office funds Professor Alex Balandin's research
Army Research Office funds Professor Alex Balandin's research
Electrical Engineering Professor Alexander Balandin has received a $110K grant from the Army Research Office for experimental research in the field of semiconductor nanostructures and their spintronic and optoelectronic applications. The equipment funds provided by this one-year award will be spent on acquisition of the advanced time-resolved spectrometer with the single photon counting capability. This instrument will be used to investigate the charge carrier recombination and light emission from the nanostructures based on wide-band gap semiconductors such as zinc oxide (ZnO) and gallium nitride (GaN). Research will be carried out in Professor Balandin's Nano-Device Laboratory (NDL) and will help in optimizing such nanostructures for the proposed spintronic and optoelectronic device applications. He and NDL group members have previously made important contributions to the study of phonon states in ZnO and GaN nanostructures. New experimental capabilities provided by this award will strongly enhance research and education activities in this field.

My name is Oisin, but i'm known as Oz, as few people can pronounce my name! I live in Cornwall in the UK. I love everything Japanese, and decided to learn it, as I want to go there one day, but think it is impolite to visit a country without attempting to learn the language first! Going through the Hiragana lessons at the moment, and it is actually easier than I was expecting! Loving the site! Arigato.

Louisiana Leaders to Visit Texas-Mexican Border
Louisiana officials will be visiting Texas-Mexican border on Monday.Louisiana House Speaker Chuck Kleckley and State Police Col. Mike Edmonson will lead a delegation of law enforcement officials to the Texas-Mexico border for an informational tour..
They plan to meet with the Texas Department of Public Safety and examine the border near McAllen, Texas via helicopter and boat.
"It is going to help educate us about what is going on down there," said Kleckley
Nola.com reports the United States is struggling with a crisis involving unaccompanied immigrant children arriving at the United States' southern border, under the assumption that the U.S. Government will allow them to stay in the country. More than 52,000 children — mostly from El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras — have arrived in southern Texas.
And more than 1,000 of those children are now staying in Louisiana while they await their deportation hearings. Governir Bobby Jindal has asked President Barack Obama for more information about the children housed in our state
Edmonson said he will be talking to the Texas officials about the children. "We have 1,100 kids in Louisiana. I am going to ask if they are getting any information about those children because we aren't getting any," said Edmonson.

I see them growing wild in my town and am very tempted to pull over my car and really check them out!
Does anyone know about getting the seed from them and when??
Thanks for the help! Tricia
Texas Bluebonnets
I see them growing wild in my town and am very tempted to pull over my car and really check them out!
You can probably find some now, they've been blooming a while. They look like pea gravel.
Go for it Tricia!
I got sent some in a trade,, i ws sowed them and i have about 5 little plants (something ate most of them).
You are right the seed looks like biege pea gravel! Very pretty with dots and swirls.
If mine ever flower and set seed i'll send you some ..... that could be a year or more though.
good luck
You can get seed here
and a tour of the grounds is a great experience/.
I think I will pull my car over one day and start picking.
Seed saving and harvesting is such a blast to me!
I started thinking it may be illegal and found this. I know you can buy the seeds everywhere, I've even seen them at Lowe's.
Oops, scratch that Tricia..it's for Florida. Here's what I found for Texas and it looks like it might be okay to pick them.
Maybe post on the Texas forum and see what the others think :)
That is too funny! I just remembered when I was a little girl my parents told me it was illegal to pick bluebonnets but we picked them anyway LOL
I forgot about that old saying until now.
Trish, one of the things I miss the most since leaving Tx is the bluebonnets!
I wonder if they would grow here...I sure would like to try.
I think they would you have the same climate. Try some and "Pick Them":)))
Ps...I have a brother that lived in Clearwater many years .
Hey they grow funny. Mine is like a big fat watery lupin now. Normal lupins over here don't look anywhere near as fresh and healthy! Must like our climate.
I bought several 6 packs of bluebonnets this year to mix in with other plants in containers. I've really enjoyed them a lot. They've been producing seeds like crazy now. I've plucked the seed pods off and need to know what to do with them now. I know I'll need to open the pods. Will I need to let the seeds dry before planting them?
Another thing.... Should I plant them now? Will they grow and bloom this year? Or should I save the seeds for next year?
Just FYI.... I'm in Southeast Texas. It's extremely hot and humid here.
well if it was me i'd leave them on the plant untill they start to dry there. But open the pods and look.
Not sure about your climate but i'd sow them now over here!
Man oh Man did I blow it then!!! I've already taken the pods from the plants. I just cut one of them open and found little green seeds. SIGH I will know better next time. I may still try and plant a few of these and see what happens. The bluebonnets still have a bit of bloom left to them. Maybe more seeds will come out if I'm lucky.
Thanks Mike for your help.
Hey it depends how little and imature the seed is.
Seeds are just like people... they have to be physicaly mature enough before they can fend for themselves.
Its still worth letting them dry and then sowing them. You might find some have made it into adulthood.
Thanks so much Mike for making me feel better about a dumb mistake. This is the first year that I've even considered saving seeds from my back yard. I should have done some research BEFORE I plucked them all off the plants. You can bet I'll do that before I go plucking anything else off of the plants.
I won't just toss them out and since I cannot put them back on the plant, I'll open them up and let them dry without their "womb".
Womb lol
Yeah never throw them. Sometimes needs must as you see a plant you want but its not ready.. so i have done it before. Trial and error thats the key.
I've had pretty good luck planting seeds this year. Those seeds either came from other folks here at Dave's, or in packages from stores.
Thanks again for your help and encouragement. I really appreciate it.
I winter sowed Texas Blue bonnets and they are already in full bloom. Just goreous to me. I did think they were a tall plant though. Still cute little short plants. Will they grow any taller?
I've never seen tall bluebonnets. About a month ago, my sister and I went to San Antonio. The wildflowers were all in bloom along the highway. We stopped to get some photos. There's nothing quite like a sea of bluebonnets!
Last year was the first time I'd ever seen any bluebonnets that were NOT blue. They were maroon in color. This year I bought a package of mixed lupines. There were quite a few colors on the front of the package. I just planted those the other day, so haven't seen any "results" yet.
I'm still quite disgusted with myself for pulling the seed pods too early. I did notice that there are still some out there though on the plants, so I'll leave those, as is the right thing to do.

PHOENIX(AP) Hakim Warrick scored 21 points to lead a balanced attack, helping the Phoenix Suns overcome a 15-point, first-half deficit to beat the Denver Nuggets for the 12th straight time at home, 100-94 Monday night.
The Suns had a rough night from 3-point range, making just 4 of 20 after nearly breaking the NBA record with 22 in a win over the Lakers the day before. Phoenix also had a sloppy first half (at both ends), making up for it by putting six players in double figures. Steve Nash had 15 points and seven assists, and Channing Frye chipped in 15 points.
Carmelo Anthony had 20 points and 22 rebounds for Denver, which hasn't won in the desert since April 7, 2004.
Grant Hill added 14 points for Phoenix, which has won three straight since opening the season 2-4. Josh Childress had 10 key points off the bench and Hedo Turkoglu hit a big 3-pointer and blocked a late 3-point attempt by Denver's Chauncey Billups.
The Suns had to go small without center Robin Lopez, who's expected to miss several weeks after spraining two knee ligaments against the Lakers on Sunday night. That wasn't much of a a problem against the not-so-big Nuggets, who are still missing Kenyon Martin and Chris Andersen.
Other than Anthony's surprising rebounding effort, it was relatively even on the inside, Denver scoring eight more points in the paint.
After struggling in the first half, the Suns finally got the lead on a 4-point play with 6 1/2 minutes left, going up 85-82 on Turkoglu's three-point play and a technical foul on Billups. Denver tried to claw back, but Nash and Turkoglu hit consecutive 3-pointers to make it 98-89 and didn't let Denver make a run.
Both teams were coming off wins over the defending NBA champions.
The Nuggets handed the Lakers their first loss on Thursday, scoring a season-high 118 points in the win in Denver. Phoenix made it two straight back in Los Angeles on Sunday night, coming within one 3-pointer of the NBA single-game record.
That didn't figure to bode well for the Nuggets, who allowed Indiana to hit 16 of 30 from beyond the arc in their last road game, a 144-113 loss that included a 54-point third quarter by the Pacers.
Denver coach George Karl joked during the morning shootaround that hopefully the Suns shot all their 3-pointers against the Lakers - and he may have been right.
Phoenix missed its first seven from long range and was 2 for 12 in the first half. The Suns weren't playing much defense, either, giving up too many shots inside and on the break - Denver had a three-on-none breakaway one trip in the first quarter - which wasn't a good combination.
Denver took a 15-point lead midway through the second quarter and kept the Suns from making a run, leading 58-46 at the half after shooting 26 of 52.
Notes: The officials called three other technical fouls: on Anthony for yelling in the second quarter, Nene in the third for swinging an elbow and Hill a few seconds later for arguing. ... Karl hasn't won in Phoenix since 1997, while coaching the Seattle SuperSonics. ... Phoenix is 1-3 on the second game of back-to-backs.

1.0 added profiling and getting callgraph info using the --profile option.
1.1 fixes a bug in remake's "set" command which caused a SEGV and adds a "setqx" which expands the value given it before assigning to a variable. Both setq and setqx commands also now allow setting a variable that hasn't been defined before.
Just in time for the New Year -
Here are the highlights
A new release of remake for GNU Make 4.1 is out.
Since I haven't posted here in a while, mid-December I made a new release of zshdb. This version has some custom debugger command completion and command history working. Thanks go to to the zsh-gurus on the zsh mailing list for the help here.... read more
bashdb and zshdb debuggers releases have been made. Changes are small, and include bug fixes and code reorganization. The debugger "set autolist" has been added.
This version has some minor bug fixed that folks have reported. It now compiles on Solaris too.
In this second release, debugger commands "enable", "disable", "examine", and "set and inferior-tty" were added; also the
command line option --tty option was added.
This release of bashdb has a couple of bug fixes (e.g. for bash 4.0) while pydb has features back ported from its rewrite http://code.google.com/p/pydbgr/.
In preparing an update for Debian, Yaroslav Halchenk noticed missing documentation from the 3.80x code. Also a bug causing a SEGV in showing target information for a .PHONY target was fixed.
Some small bugs and configuration bugs were fixed. Listing zipped eggs is now supported.
Tests were revised for Python 2.6 and Python without readline installed. A bug involving invocation from ipython was fixed. The "frame" command is a little more like gdb's. Exceptions are now caught in runcall().
The first release of a debugger for ksh version 93t 10/31/08 or better has been release. There are also some small updates to the bash and zsh debuggers.
A big release day for this project: first serious debugger for zsh has been released. Also there is a major update to the bash debugger which has been tested on both bash 3.2 and bash 4.0 alpha. Finally a release of the debugger for GNU Make has been rebased off of version 3.81 rather than the previous hybrid 3.80 and pre 3.81.
In version 1.23 an experimental feature allows you to drop into a Python or IPython shell (similar to irb for ruby-debug). Parameters are now shown on calls. You can save the current breakpoints and/or settings to a file to be read in during a subsequent debugger session. A gdb-like "annotate" mode was added, improving emacs interaction. Some bugs were fixed and the documentation was updated.
See the NEWS file in the release for a summary of the changes and ChangeLog for the gory details.
Changes in this release are:
set/show trace-commands were added to make samilar to those commands in gdb 6.6
show commands now allows for a starting number and +; again the same as gdb.
variable and tilde expansion now occurs in cd command. Note that gdb does tilde expansion but not variable expansion like $HOME.
Add linetrace delay debugger command.
Make FreeBSD tests work, cygwin signals are working so test are run there... read more
Function tracing, interactive and non-intractive, was added; calls and returns now show the nesting level.
Support for Emacs 22 and 23 was added; there is better tolerance for emacs on MS Windows.
ipython interaction was improved. BSD make can now be used instead of GNU make to build the debugger. Various bugs have been fixed.
There were some small bugfixes changes to track GNU Make development and changes to make more Debian compatibile.
A number of small usability enhancements were made. Some of these include improvements to command completion, getting help via pydoc, search-path lookup of Python executables, and showing thread information without explicit thread debugging requested. Note: Python version 2.4.0 or greater is now required.
In the release, debugger commands added were "signal", "kill" and "quit" ; "contiinue" now allows an optional line-specification argument. This version works on bash versions 3.1 and 3.2 and changes have been made to facilitate building on cygwin. Some bugs fixed and documentation updated.
Python 1.20 has a number of bug fixes. Additional features to make it play nice with the upcoming release of ipython have also been made.
Some small improvements were made in signal handling, thread debugging, and documentation. Also there were changes to make pydb ipython friendly. The "continue" command now accepts an optional position name.
The ability to show thread information and debug threads was added. This is a bit experimental and is not completely stable.
GDB-style signal handling was added.
The gdb FILE command was added.
A bug in tbreak fixed.
The "examine" command now shows instance variables for an object.
Many small improvements have been made to improve usability and make it possible for planned future changes. You can call the debugger without a script name.
The gdb "directory" and "show directories" commands have been implemented. The "examine" command shows more information about a Python object.
This release adds tolerance for Python 2.3.4, 2.3.5, and Python 2.5b. Systems tested include cygwin, FreeBSD, GNU/Linux, NetBSD, OSX, and Solaris. Bugs have been fixed and documentation improved.
There have been a number of small but important changes. Basically working on extending the Python debugger has helped this project out and I've tried to make the code bases be more alike.
This release adds the ability to run debugger commands on program breakpoint (gdb "commands"), show program status (gdb "info program"),
and call the debugger from inside the a debugged program, which potentially can speed things up and may increase reliabilty/reproducability of errors. A better line tracing facility was added. ... read more
There are new releases of the remake, bashdb, pydb debuggers. They now have more of additional gdb commands. But most notable of the last two debuggers, bahdb, and pydb, is that they support some sort of command completion (if GNU readline is available).
As always bugs have been fixed and documentation improved (and is online as well).
In conjunction with the new debuggers the features have been encorporated into a new test version of ddd. The previous test version (3.3.12-test4) of ddd introducted a bug which prevented correct interaction between ddd and gdb. So if you have version 3.3.12-test4 installed you should definitely upgrade to 3.3.12-test5.
Some small configuration management problems were fixed. Sometime later various problems with gdb breakage in ddd-3.3.12-test4 will be addressed.

The Arthritic Patient
By Cal Streeter, DO and Michael Epitropoulos, DC,PhDWe see numerous patients in our offices with arthritis-related problems. First and foremost, it is important to detect and correct areas of misalignment of the spine to facilitate healing. In this article, though, we would like to examine some issues that need to be addressed in addition to vertebral subluxation correction.
Certainly, arthritis has multiple causes, and joint pain is simply one of the body's alarms going off to bring a deeper problem to the surface. One of the first questions to ask your patients is if they recently or in the distant past had any emotionally stressful situations or dramatic changes in their lives. If so, their adrenal glands and endocrine systems in general may be out of balance. This certainly can be noted in various types of analyses. Contact reflex analysis and the "tracer" (bioenergetic testing) are methods we use for analysis of these systems. (For information on these methods of analysis, contact us.) Other systems imbalanced include: (but are not limited to)
Sending the patient to a wellness-oriented osteopathic physician for anionic surfactant therapy of the intravenous variety, in an effort to pull toxins out of the system, and allow the body to eliminate especially heavy metals and chemicals, is also recommended.
We also look at foods in considering potential food allergies. Begin with the nightshades, since these (potatoes, tomatoes, eggplant and peppers) can exacerbate many inflammatory joint problems. Certainly, gouty arthritis can bother meat and cheese-eaters, and cherry juice has great benefit. Also, consider allergies to gluten (wheat products) as well as dairy.
In addition to your plan of chiropractic care, there are some very good natural substances to facilitate healing, including but not limited to: MSM; vitamin C; glucosamine and chondroitin sulfates; cetylmeristoleate; food-grade hydrogen peroxide; bromelain; and shark cartilage, to name a few. We have found that cod liver oil and magnesium, with equal amounts of calcium, is extremely effective in facilitating healing.

On the left side of the New Mexico Department of Public Safety (NMDPS) website (http://www.dps.nm.org/), you can find the links to criminal history records, missing persons registry, and sex offender registry. The criminal history records webpage shows the Department's services and their corresponding fees:
The arrest record data of criminals apprehended in New Mexico for felonies, misdemeanors, and drunk driving are submitted by arresting agencies and kept by the New Mexico State Central Repository for Criminal History. The information on the criminal history records are based on updates in this particular State Repository.
Under the NMDPS, a criminal records check on sex offenders on the state can be accessed. The website, http://www.nmsexoffender.dps.state.nm.us/, provides records of the location of sex offenders in New Mexico. Included in the registry are sex offenders who were convicted on or before July 1, 1995, or those convicted before that date but were imprisoned or on parole as of that date. However, it is important to know that the information, especially the address and status of the offender, are subject to frequent change. It should also be emphasized that no one can be 100% sure that the person identified in the criminal record search is really the person in question, unless the fingerprint comparison matches.
On the left side of the website of the Sex Offenders Registry, you can search either by name, zip code, city, country, street, entire state, absconders, or incarcerated. Once you enter a keyword in one of these links, a list of results that are related with your keyword will display. You can browse the list and click on the offender's name for detailed information. You will be directed to a page which contains the identifiers of the sex offender such as date of birth, sex, age, height, weight, race, hair color, eye color, aliases, and description of scars, marks, and tattoos (if any). A picture and the date when it was taken can also be viewed in the webpage. The crime that the offender was charged with, along with the date and place of conviction, is also included in the record. Unlike the home address, the work address of the offender cannot be released to the public. Moreover, the addresses of the sex offenders in the absconders list are not available.
On the New Mexico Corrections Department (NMCD) website (http://corrections.state.nm.us/), a list of the most wanted criminals and escapees are also available for public access. The link on Offender Information will take you to a search engine where the last name, first name, or NMCD number of the criminal is entered. The search results will show the name, date of birth, location, supervision, offense, and picture of the offender.
In order to access New Mexico background checks and criminal records, follow the steps and instructions below:
Step 1.
Download the New Mexico Authorization for Release of Information form.
Step 2.
Fill out the request form and write "self" in the space that asks for the name of requester. Once complete, it must be notarized.
Step 3.
Mail the notarized form, along with a certified check or money order for $12, to the New Mexico Department of Safety.

New Mexico arrest records are available to law enforcement agencies, as well as the general public through the New Mexico Corrections Department. To facilitate the retrieval of New Mexico arrest records, the Corrections Department has made them available online.
To search the database for New Mexico arrest records, follow these steps:
Step 1.
Visit the New Mexico Corrections Department's website and go to the page for the New Mexico Offender Information Search tool.
Step 2.
Input either the first and/or last name of the offender or the offender's NMCD number.
Step 3.

Where to Find New Mexico Criminal Records
The New Mexico State Central Repository for Criminal History, operated by the New Mexico Department of Safety, keeps all criminal records, including felony and misdemeanor arrests, and DWI offenses. To access a criminal record, fill out a request form, have it notarized and mail it along with a certified check or money order for $12.
Legally Accessing New Mexico Criminal Records
New Mexico releases criminal records to individuals who request their personal New Mexico criminal records, as well as to law enforcement agencies and authorized employers. The individual in question must consent to the search if an employer wants to perform a New Mexico background check, however.
How to Rectify Mistakes in a Criminal Record
If you think your criminal record is incorrect, call the Department of Safety and describe the mistake, and they will direct you how to proceed getting it amended.
