1. The heater core can be installed with the water connections facing eitehr toward or away from the fans.
All of the Midi Heater components are manufactured within the UK & Europe, we have used high quality components which ensure longevity and safe operation.
We are able to manufacture custom heater systems with a minimum order quantity of 10pcs or more, we have at our disposal 3D Scanning, 3D Printing, 3D Design and Fabrication equipment allowing us to produce high quality and cost effective solutions for your HVAC requirements.
I. This heater is not available without the water valve.
II. The water valve is not a bypass design, when in the OFF position no water will flow back to the engine, therefore this heater is unsuitable for use on a vehicle which also uses the heater circuit as the engines thermostat bypass circuit. If your engine has no thermostat bypass circuit you have two options: (A) Retrofit a thermostat bypass water circuit though not always possible, or (B) clamp the valve on the heater fully open so it cannot move and then install or use the original heater bypass valve.
III. This is not a stand-alone heater system; you will need to provide a hot water supply by plumbing your heater to your vehicles engine cooling system or a hot water heater manufactured by companies such as Eberspacher, Webasto or Mikuni.
IV. This is not a complete kit. We would recommend the following additional items: 4 Position Fan Switch, Rotary Heater Control Knob, Bowden Cable, Water Hose, Air Ducting, Air Vents etc. We can supply all parts mentioned above and more. We do not offer packaged kits as everybody's requirements are different and there are never two installations the same!
V. Please make sure that no foreign matter can be ingested into the fan, this is the quickest way to destroy blower motors and could potentially cause a fire. For example, this is particular important if the heater unit is installed onto or close to the floor of the vehicle. A filtered cover may be required to protect the blower and ensure long operation life.
VI. Don't be afraid to get in touch with any questions no matter how trivial!

The Tuolumne Utilities District Board of Directors will allow TUD customers to water their lawns this summer, while still requiring a minimum 25-percent reduction in water usage.
TUD General Manager Tom Scesa recommended the policy change at Tuesday's board meeting because, he said, he is confident customers can still meet conservation needs by taking other steps to save water.
He said a TUD employee will be reassigned to monitor customer usage and enforce penalties.
Historically low winter precipitation prompted the board in January to adopt a goal for cutting water usage in half districtwide. To meet the goal, the board banned lawn watering and implemented a penalty system that includes a possible $500 fine for customers who don't conserve at least 25 percent.
Scesa said there has been little need for enforcement thus far, and that the public has done an "excellent job" at saving water.
District customers reduced overall usage by about 48 percent in May over the same month in 2013, he said. No one has been fined at this point, but more than 200 written warnings have been issued to customers who didn't meet the minimum requirement.
"Most people are doing the right thing because it's common sense," said TUD board member Ruanne Mikkelsen.
The district has also put numerous contingency plans in place to ensure an adequate supply for summer, which includes an agreement to buy up to 2,400 acre-feet of water out of New Melones Reservoir - enough for about 4,800 households.
Lawn watering was initially targeted in the restrictions because lawns account for half an average household's annual water use.
However, Scesa and the board said its time to let customers choose how to meet the conservation goals.

Building Resilience in Vermont's Watersheds
High Meadows seeks applications for projects that engage residents from multiple towns within a watershed to plan and act together. Through this initiative, we seek to encourage communities to work together to protect people, farms, homes, roads, and water quality, not just in their own town, but also upstream and downstream. High Meadows is committing $180,000 to these 2017 grants.
For High Meadows , resilience means the capacity not just to bounce back from disruptive events, but also to plan and act ahead of those events. Flooding and erosive water surges are two of Vermont's most significant climate impacts. In order to reduce the risk from these events, communities must understand how their land use decisions impact upstream and downstream neighbors, and work collaboratively, as a watershed, to build resilience.
Key dates to remember:
February 10, 2017: Letters of Intent due
March 24-25, 2017: ECHO Summit
June 1, 2017: Applications due
This follows a first round of $249,000 in grants awarded to communities across 6 Vermont watersheds. For more information on 2015-2017 projects, click here or watch the video below.

Of course the 2013 Ford F-150 is the truck of choice when it comes to the heaviest of loads. It stands strong in the face of the most formidable job. Whether you're transporting work materials, costly equipment or home renovation supplies, the F-150 keeps cargo safe and secure in the bed of your truck.
What is the volume of an F-150 pickup bed?
Knowing the F-150's bed or cargo box dimensions can help give you an idea of how much your bed can hold. F-150 trucks are available in 3 cargo box styles: 5.5-ft Styleside, 6.5-ft Styleside, and 8.0-ft Styleside. The difference in style comes from the length of the cargo box.
5.5-ft. Styleside
This bed has 67-50-22.4 length, width and height (in.). Doing an intensive home renovation? This bed provides 55.4 cu. ft. of space, which is enough for two washers, two matching driers, and leaves room left over for tools, extra parts and even a pile or two of laundry!
6.5-ft. Styleside
This cargo box runs 78.8-50-22.4 length, width and height (in.). If you're getting your yard in shape for spring, you'll be happy to know the 65.5 cu. ft. of cargo area will carry more than 7 large bags of mulch. Then, when it's time to refuel, forget the delivery man; You can call-in and pick up 132 boxes of 16-inch pizzas in your F-150, with room enough for all the fixings.
8.0-ft. Styleside
The F-150's 8.0-ft Styleside has 81.3 cu. ft. measuring 97.4-50-22.4 inches length, width and height. Whether for work or play, the F-150 minimizes how many loads it takes to finish a project. With the 8.0-ft Styleside, you can easily fit 196 8-ft 2x4s so you can finish your project in a breeze.

Cookbooks are there to teach, but when the typical ingredients of a modern diet, white flour and sugar, no longer fit into your idea of a healthy diet you must pluck, stir and preserve your own path.
As self-reliant homemakers we have come a long way in becoming creative in the kitchen. When you cook three meals a day at home you quickly realize that pasta and potatoes are just not going to cut it. And slashing out gluten for good?! Well, better learn to cook from wholesome natural ingredients that are more filling than fluff. Don't use cups and spoons to measure what you have, focus on training your intuition, your eyes and your hands to tell you how much is enough.
All criticisms aside, knowing how to use what you have on hand and what grows in your garden is a wonderful skill to possess. If you haven't acquired it yet never fear, it may just find you one day when you run out of milk and eggs and guests coming before noon…
Since we dropped processed sugar from our lives more than a year ago, we haven't missed it and its negative side effects one bit! Instead we focus on locally produced honey or in the case of preserving fruit we may use nothing at all. Waiting for the fruit to be ripe takes patience, but come those long winter days, it is heart warming to have so many jars on the pantry shelves.
Apples are in season and they are falling with the wind, which makes them a little bruised here and there, yet perfect for applesauce. No honey, no preservatives, just 100% apple. Can't get more simple than that.
Apples will act differently when cooked, so choose the right one for the job. These summer apples fall apart in the hot pot, perfect for sauces and chutneys. For compotes choose a later ripening and harder variety.
Plum season is coming up next and you only need one ingredient for that jam too!
When multiple fruits are ripe at the same time, get a little crazy in the kitchen and work on those eye and hand measuring skills:
Don't worry about weights just keep in mind proportions and if at first you don't get it right, try again. And then the next year and the next year. Elderberries are tricky to find a good flavored partner, but we think these cherry plums Prunus cerasifera accomplish the act.
Boil the cherry plums till they are ready to burst, drain the water and put through a strainer to end up with an orange base (removing both the seeds and skins) that will be boiled for longer once the elderberries are ready.
Make sure that both jams are hot and ready to go in the jars, elderberry on the bottom because of its density and relative dryness (seeds were not removed to give the jam both unique texture and flavor).
When we open up a new jar we give it a stir and add a few tablespoons of honey to taste.
Preserving self-reliance. That's what we are up to this summer, like every year.
How about you?

When I saw some round pizza pans at Dollar Tree, I thought I might have a solution. Our son already has a brown and blue circle motif on his walls so I decided to paint the pans to help them blend in a bit more seamlessly with what was already happening in the room.
I'm really happy with how the project turned out. I'm even more happy that the magnet mess is contained in his room and that he can play with them during quiet time.
- Four steel pizza pans, $4 and up
- Primer, on hand or $3 and up
- Acrylic paint (I used white, blue and brown), on hand
- Foam paint roller, $1 and up
- Foam paint brush, on hand
- Drill and drill bits, on hand
- 8 small/medium screws, on hand
I wrote a tutorial on how I made and installed these over on Dollar Store Crafts. Check it out!

Life of Pi Reviews
August 15, 2017
Stunning visuals and a bravura performance from newcomer Suraj Sharma as the young protagonist make Life of Pi a quest destined to impress.
Full Review | Original Score: 4.5/5
June 21, 2016
'Life of Pi' is a sort of mash-up of 'We Bought a Zoo,' 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel,' and 'Castaway.' It's an enchanting coming-of-age story, and an oceanic vision quest.

Gerard Depardieu gets the most oversold star billing since Marlon Brando was Superman's absentee father. Depardieu looms over less than a minute of screen time. Not that we miss him when he's gone; we just wonder why he was there in the first place.

This is a gorgeous film (in 3D) as Lee, adapting the Yann Martel book, pushes the tale beyond the realm of teen adventure into existential parable.

"Life of Pi" isn't just a visual effects movie stuck at sea. There's a compelling story here as well.
Full Review | Original Score: A-
October 29, 2014
The ferocious swells and intent visual beauty Lee has brought to Yann Martel's best-selling seeking-of-the-spiritual yarn quickly evokes a second thought: "Kitty, kitty, kitty, nice kitty, here kitty, kitty, kitty, kitty."

Everywhere you look there are images of beguiling beauty: a mirror-like sea reflecting golden clouds; a sudden swarm of flying fish; an island bristling with meerkats; and a breaching whale glowing with bioluminescence as it leaps out of the water.

Mystical and endless as the number pi, 'The Life of Pi' works on a number of levels, all of them enchanting.

January 29, 2013
Takes some time to find its flow. The CGI-tiger is the greatest marvel here-the intensity of its stare alone makes it the truest fiction of all. Religious platitudes remain fairly pat; the final allegory's overstated.
January 16, 2013
Ang Lee's extraordinary, lyrical, beautiful, moving, genre-defying Life of Pi can be recommended with the simple, sweeping assurance that it is unlike anything you have ever seen before.

When adrift with Pi and the tiger on the open sea, the film is at its most wondrous: a ravishing spectacle that treads judiciously on the infinite line between what's possible and impossible.

The Grain Hedge Team provides a macro-focused daily view of the world's grain markets. Kevin McNew received a bachelor's degree from Oklahoma State University and his master's and Ph.D. degrees in Economics from North Carolina State University. He spent 10 years as a Professor of Economics with the University of Maryland and Montana State University focusing on commodity markets and is widely regarded for his ability to boil-down complex economic situations into easy-to-understand concepts for applied life.
Grains started Sunday night in the red with beans down 10 and wheat down 7, but gained ground throughout the night. Going into the close of night trade, nearby May beans are up 10 cents, wheat is up 7 and corn is up 6.
Exporters at the Gulf are seeing more competition from South America and there have been rumors over the past week of Brazilian soybeans moving into the U.S. Gulf or Wilmington, DE. Estimates have ranged from 2-3 early in the week, to as high as 12 cargoes by the end of the week. Gulf basis levels slumped on Friday even with the slide in futures prices.
In wheat, conditions are still dry through the Southern Plains. The best chance for moisture in the next 10 days seems to be Wednesday into Thursday, but after that weather looks to be dry out to the first week of April. In Canada, leaders of the union representing 3,000 conductors, yard workers, and traffic coordinators at Canadian National Railway Co narrowly rejected a second tentative contract deal with Canada's biggest railway. The Teamsters Canada Rail Conference said in a statement that it still has a valid strike mandate and added that its leaders will meet with counsel to decide on its next move. Canada continues to have sever logistics problems moving grain to export markets this season.
In the US rail costs have been skyrocketing, driving down basis levels especially in the Northern Plains. Northern shuttle trains are said to have traded as high as $7,500 a car this week, which is the equivalent of paying $2 a bushel to ship your wheat. Overnight, Taiwan's maize industry procurement association MFIG has issued a tender to purchase up to 60,000 MT of corn to be sourced from the United States, Brazil or Argentina. The tender sought shipment between May 26 to June 14, and the deadline for offers is Tuesday, Mar 25. In its previous tender for 60,000 MT of corn on Mar. 19, MFIG rejected all offers and made no purchase as prices were regarded as too high.

It's impossible to look at America in 2017 and not think of the Austro-Hungarian Empire in the early 1910s at the end of its gloriously long sunset, unwittingly ready for the journey into eternal night. In those years, its capital, Vienna, was the most diverse, most exciting, most interesting place on Earth. Nobody knew it, but it was the most volatile too.
The Empire felt like it would continue forever, exactly the same as it was. Emperor Franz Josef ascended the throne in 1848, year of the last revolution any European remembered. Life seemed to continue exactly as it was for nearly seven decades thereafter.
If you wanted to see the Empire's cracks, they were right on the surface, yet everyone pretended they weren't there until Russia helped a small group of nationalist fanatics pry the cracks open, which dropped 18 million people into the earth.
"The Radetzky March," published in 1932 by the Viennese-Jewish writer Joseph Roth, feels like swaths of it take place not just in America, but in one of its more Semitic neighborhoods. At the moment, I forget how that old Jewish cliché goes about how "The first generation achieves, the second generation honors, the third generation desecrates," but clearly Roth follows that formula, and I suppose the odds are about even whether he picked it up from Thomas Mann's "Buddenbrooks" or some Haredi trying to make him lay tefillin on the sidewalk of Kaertner Strasse.
Nowhere does America feel more stable than in Pikesville, where the same Jews kibbitz at each other who kibbitzed in 1969 as though they'll still be kibbitzing in 2069. And yet right across Northern Parkway is the neighborhood we left behind, decrepit and suffering, and we still pretend it's not there. The crack on Northern Parkway has always been there, yet the suffering it causes somehow isn't our problem.
At the heart of "The Radetzky March" is a lie. A Slovenian soldier sees a sniper aiming for the young Emperor and knocks him down before he's shot. The soldier's promoted to nobility for his service. Years later, he reads about himself in his son's government-issued textbook, which significantly exaggerates his heroism. At heart, he's still a peasant to whom it never occurred that authorities lie to people. He's incensed by the lie, and goes to the Emperor to personally demand a change. The Emperor basically answers him, "What's the harm?"
The hero's so disillusioned that he bars his son from a military career and won't tell his son why. The son prospers as a bureaucrat like so many aging Pikesville workaholics — accustomed to a daily routine never violated for decades. He thinks the world always was and will be the way it seems to him, and therefore has no reason to wonder if his world's more tenuous than it seems.
This son lives vicariously through his own son, whom he insists has the military career his father arbitrarily denied him. The heroic grandfather is dead, and the grandson is unprepared for the temptations of military life. When the soldier's lifestyle gets the grandson into trouble, the son of the hero can only compare his own son to his own father and see how much weaker, more spoiled, more entitled the son's whole generation is. The situations into which the grandson's thrown could never have happened to his forebears, and therefore he has no example to follow. Privilege is so unfamiliar to this family that it's lost as quickly as it's gained. There's no fourth generation.
The hero could just as easily be a dyspeptic Holocaust survivor who wonders why every shul throws a dinner in his honor. His son could be a dentist with a 5,000-square-foot McMansion on Michelle Way. His grandson could be a filmmaker living in Old Goucher with an allowance he spends on weed. Everybody in Pikesville thinks the grandson's a Mamzer, but until recently, few Jews ever had experience of privilege, so who could properly advise him? All that reverence for past traditions did him no favors. It did not give him role models who negotiate life as its lived, but idols whose great feats seemed foreordained. If his actions are not similarly foreordained, how can he be prepared for life?
Every Jewish Day School gives preemptive admonishments to its students for betraying our faith years before we can. We're taught to revere the order of things, which is completely "Beshert." "The Radetzky" March is one of many books that English teachers in Jewish Day Schools should assign, but never will. It shows that the order fragile, arbitrary, stifling and often dishonest. Perhaps every society's built on lies, but when they're built on shaky foundations, we shouldn't be surprised when they take only a lifetime to collapse.

"The Russian revolution of 1917 was the result of several major problems of both a social and economic nature."
Assess the validity of the above statement and explain whether or not the Revolution could have been avoided.
Russia to
the USSR
Between the Wars
A) Vladimir Lenin- the individual in history, a field of study in history
a. Background; Father a teacher and well educated, possible Jewish background on his father's side, brother executed for radicalism by Alexander III (involved in a plot to assassinate). Lenin was exiled to Siberia.
b. Lenin spends up to 17 years in exile inside and outside Russia, in Switzerland prior to 1917
c. Philosophy (pragmatic)
Violent revolution- only way to destroy evils of capitalism (Marxist)
Took ideas from Marx/Engels and the "Communist Manifesto"
Rejected revisionism of Bernstein, Germans, etc.
d. Differed from Marx
Possible for backwards Russia to have a revolution, IR not necessary.
Peasants, still very poor, would embrace change/revolution and join up with factory workers
Need for a highly trained elite "vanguard", difference from Mensheviks and Marx
e. Slogans- "Peace, Bread, and Land", and "All Power to the Soviets"
f. Germany gave Lenin safe passage from Switzerland to Finland Station in Petrograd.
i. Why? Lenin wanted to end the fighting. Germany like that. Internal turmoil no matter what.
ii. Upon arrival, true revolutionary spirit comes out and begins speeches, refused to work with Provisional Government/Kerensky
iii. Leon Trotsky key to the revolution and Soviet
1. 100 % for Lenin, was an early Menshevik
2. Bolsheviks had a slight majority in the Petrograd Soviet
3. Trotsky got the Soviet to form military (he headed the committee)
4. He then takes control of the Soviet and the Provisional Gov.; controlled post office, railroad, telegraph, and eventual the winter palace- Aurora.
Civil War
Russian Civil war
Civil War breaks out as soon as the revolution is over; Reds Vs Whites
"The miracle wasn't that Lenin took power during the Nov. revolution , but … that he was able to stay in power afterwards" Harenberg. 1993
Lenin's three early moves (brilliant with hindsight)
Did give land to peasants (from aristocratic estates), was happening anyway in 1917 as WWI went badly in Russia (Order # 1)
Ok's factory worker committees to control local factories
Peace- ends WWI
Treaty of Brest Litovsk- 1/3 of Russia to Germany
One step backward (lose land), two steps forward-Stalin got land back some
d.Reds/ Lenin and Trotsky/Bolsheviks/Communists Won the Civil War
Whites- to conservative , didn't unite the masses
Red Army, under Trotsky- faired much better, used the draft, czar's officers, and tough discipline
Reds used Total War, War Communism; rationing and industry nationalized
Checka used- cruel, ex. Puppet show making fun of Lenin- they were shot
Foreign Intervention- helped Reds unite Russia behind them
e. Afterwards:
i. N.E.P. (Lenin's New Economic Policy)- adopts some capitalism
ii. One step back, for two steps forward
iii. To get economy going, surplus farm goods could be sold, small manufacturing allowed, free enterprise. Economy does better for 12 years after Lenin's death
iv. Pragmatism, He saved communism, rapid recovery, eased/ relaxed censorship and repression
v. He was concerned about Stalin
Jospeh Stalin (Totalitarianism to the left)
A) 1924, Lenin died- power struggle results with Stalin in power; Lenin wanted Trotsky
B) Trotsky vs Stalin- differences
Trotsky- more of a Marxist, belief in world wide communist revolution (export)
Stalin- solidify revolution in Russia first (Socialism in One Country)
C) By 1927, Stalin had control
D) Economy- "Five Year Plans"- wanted 250% Increase in heavy industry, 150% in Agr.
Heavy Industry- got 500% by '37, moved peasants into cities: but no consumer goods, so standard of living goes down
Agriculture- forced collectivization- 2nd Serfdom
End of individual farms, big state owned ones instead
Deaths- 10 million or more (Ukraine)
Stalin moved industry east of the Urals
Political/military "purges" of the 30's
Trials and executions of communist party members + generals who were found "unfaithful"
Stalin's wife's suicide- when he was brutally mean to her when she voiced her opposing opinion
Trotsky- tried in absentia and later assassinated in Mexico
d. Religion- who became God?- Stalin (Lenin- "religion is the opiate of the people")
e. Art/Music- art as propaganda (Lenin let artists create), shock brigade, Rachmaninoff banned
f. Stalin-Hitler "Non-Aggression Pact"- 1939 (Both attack and divide Poland)
i. Caught the free world by surprise
ii. West to blame (yes) Stalin asked for alliance w/ Fr. And Br. Who said no.
Between WWI and WWII (1920's to 30's- Age of Anxiety)
A) Before 1914, Optimism:
a. Progress, increase in education, increase in standard of living, opportunity for lower classes to move up, democracy, social security, government responding to problems
b. Reason
c. Rights of individuals
d. Scientific revolution; Newton, logical universe, laws of science/nature, technological benefits, therefore laws of human behavior. Then QED and Einstein.
B) Contrast with Post WWI + Russian Revolution
Age of Anxiety
a. Pessimism- doubt in philosophy, writers (Remarque, Hemmingway), science
b. Fear of the future- people didn't know what to think, made worse by events in the 20's and 30's
i. Anxiety in Philosophy (distrust of democracy, social equality, reason)
Nietzsche (1844-1900) – German
a. Importance of emotions and passion, reason was overemphasized, importance of a few 'superior' individuals, ubermensch, "masses are asses" and must be led. Will to Power
2. Lenin- elite to lead a revolution
3. Sorel (French)- use of general strike to collapse capitalism, "everyone strikes in sympathy", need for a revolutionary elite , *anti-reason
4. Existentialism (Sartre, Camus, both French, but started in Germany)
a. Relativity of values to situation, changes for the individual, don't judge the others, or worry about them. No belief in God, reason, progress.
5. Anxiety and physics: Curie, Einstein, Fermi, Bohr, etc. E=MC2
6. Psychology- Freud
7. Modern Art + Music; Anxiety and irrational
Mussolini (Italy 1922-1944)
A) King Victor Emmanuel III- (grandson of Cavour's king) gave Mussolini dictatorial power after Mussolini's famous "March on Rome" 10/29. Victor stays on as figurehead monarch.
B) His Fascism (Totalitarianism)

b. No freedom of press
c. Election fraud

e. Support for gov. from the Catholic Church, with support to Pope Pius

C) Imperialistic (like Japan/Germany)- league = appeasement, talk compromise but never follow through or back it up
a. Ethiopia '35, weakest nation imaginable and Albania in 1936, poorest in Europe
WWII- Axis formed in 1936 (Germany, Italy, and Japan)

Adolf Hitler from Mein Kampf

Winning! Charlie Sheen To Make Wizard World Comic Con Debuts In Minneapolis On May 6-7, Des Moines On May 20-21, Philadelphia On June 3-4
Actor, Writer, Producer Known For 'Platoon,' 'Wall Street,' 'Two and a Half Men' To Appear At Minneapolis Convention Center, Iowa Events Center, Pennsylvania Convention Center
LOS ANGELES, April 13, 2017 – Hollywood headliner Charlie Sheen, whose dozens of topline film and TV credits include hits "Two and Half Men," "Anger Management," Wall Street and Platoon, will make his first Wizard World Comic Con appearances when he attends events in Minneapolis (May 6-7), Des Moines (May 20-21) and Philadelphia (June 3-4). The actor, writer and producer will greet fans, pose for photo ops, sign autographs and conduct interactive fan Q&As during each of the three pop culture extravaganzas.
Sheen's awards include a Golden Globe, a Bronze Wrangler, and a Motion Picture star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He has been nominated for three Emmy Awards, two Golden Globes, and two Screen Actors Guild Awards. Some of his other memorable roles have come in feature films Major League, Eight Men Out and Hot Shots and in the acclaimed TV series "Spin City." The outspoken star is a popular figure on social media, with nearly 12 million Twitter followers and similarly huge Facebook and Instagram universes.
In Minneapolis, he joins a celebrity roster that already includes "Doctor Who" stars Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman, as well as Nichelle Nichols ("Star Trek,"), Lou Ferrigno ("The Incredible Hulk") and "The Monkees" duo of Peter Tork and Micky Dolenz at the Minneapolis Convention Center. In Des Moines, along with Dolenz, Sheen will headline a slate that features "Buffy the Vampire" favorite James Marsters at the Iowa Events Center. In Philadelphia, Gene Simmons (KISS front man), Millie Bobby Brown ("Stranger Things") and Michael Rooker (Guardians of the Galaxy) are among those already attending at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Additional celebrities will be announced closer to the start of all three shows.
Wizard World Comic Con events bring together thousands of fans of all ages to celebrate the best in pop culture: movies, television, gaming, live entertainment, comics, sci-fi, graphic novels, toys, original art, collectibles, contests and more.
Wizard World Comic Con is also the place for cosplay, with fans of every genre showing off their best costumes throughout the event.

Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
Here are your first winners!
I have to say, the voting did distribute the awards fairly evenly, with some ties and there was the odd occasion I had to go to 2nd place to balance it out, but it all worked out brilliantly and I think (I hope) everyone has won 2 awards.
Dana (kolbysmom) worked hard on the blinkies and I think the colours are really fitting to summer memories or early fall siggies so hopefully you'll all be pleased with them!
To snag your winner blinkies, right click and save as. Then, upload them into your Photobucket or similar and use the IMG codes to paste them in your siggy. If you have any problems let me know.

Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
congrats to everyone!!
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
Oh how lovely!
I stink with blinkies.. help?
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
right click and save, post to photobucket and then upload onto jm from there I believe
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
Right click your blinkie and click save. Save as can work well because then you can choose the destination folder and it's easier to find later.
Then you have to upload it to your Photobucket.
Then paste the IMG codes in your siggy editor (look for edit signature on left hand side when you go in your User CP).
If it doesn't show when you come back to the board, chances are you've got too much in your siggy.
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
Wow, thank you. Im so touched and brought me to tears! I so appreciate such sweet sentiment!! Thank you!
And congrats to all the winners!
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!

Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
I'm glad they are touching your hearts and giving you a lift ladies!!
We should really do them every year, with different awards.
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
I tried adding mine and updating my siggy but photobucket wont let me c&p the img :cry:
Re: Drum Roll Please - It's The Member Awards!!!!!
Nikki, would it work if I saved them and you took the code from there? I'll promise not to move it ;)

Chris made group work nearly impossible. Chris was never prepared. Didn't participate. Talked incessantly about nothing in particular moving everyone else off-task. Chris' choices made learning difficult for everyone. Chris' behavior was challenging.
Enter the theoretical approach of PBS – Positive Behavioral Support. "Positive behavioral support (PBS) is a broad term that describes a comprehensive, research based,
proactive approach to behavioral support aimed at producing comprehensive change for students with challenging behavior. " [1]
PBS is different than traditional consequence and reward models of behavior management programming. Those using PBS are "determining not only what, where, when and how challenging behavior occurs, but also why." [1]
Chris spent too much time talking to others in the hallway and was always late for class. Rarely organized, Chris' desk was a mess and important work was often lost or damaged. Chris' behavior was misaligned with expectations in the classroom and hallway, in small groups and whole class discussions, before class and during. We know what Chris is doing (or not doing). We know the where, the when, and the how of Chris' behavior. Yet, no one has ever bothered to figured out WHY Chris, a 15 year veteran teacher, behaves in these ways, in these locations.
Like the assumption you made that Chris was a student, most of us assume we know why our colleagues or employees behave as they do. But what if, like effective teachers supporting a student, what if we as peers, as administrators, chose to use the concepts outlined in the PBS approach? What if we approached teacher support from the perspective of, well support, not assumed judgment?
Positive Behavior Support for Educators, I define as, a deliberate and collaborative proactive plan of support aimed at encouraging and facilitating positive professional change for teachers. Now I am not looking to coin a new theory here and run across the country forcing, yet another theoretical construct down your educational-jargon filled throats. I am simply asking you to consider a different perspective. The perspective of the "why behind the what". There is always a "why" behind every "what". The key to effective support is for educational leadership and peers to figure out why a colleague is so resistant to engaging in the assumed norms of a school or grade-level culture. What has Chris experienced in past roles? Gaining an understanding of Chris' past will help rationalize the present and inform the path to growth in the future.
Why is Chris, a veteran teacher, disengaged?
Let's go back to what we do for students and see if it applies to Chris', our mythical grown-up, teacher person. Here are six potential reasons a student may lack motivation to engage. [2]
Motivation Deficit 1: The student is unmotivated because he or she cannot do the assigned work.
Could it be that Chris lacks the skills to do the work? Expectations and curriculum have changed considerably in the past 15 years. Maybe Chris has a skill deficit. Something to consider.
Motivation Deficit 2: The student is unmotivated because the 'response effort' needed to complete the assigned work seems too great.
Have you heard Chris, "Yea, I've seen this all before just with a different name. This will pass like everything else." Chris' past experiences can significantly influence the desire to engage in a new initiative because they've been burned in the past. Chris invested and then everything went back to the way it was. Maybe Chris isn't lazy, or unable, just unwilling because they've been jaded by past experiences. Something to consider.
Motivation Deficit 3: The student is unmotivated because classroom instruction does not engage.
Irrelevant professional development offerings. Enough said. Something to consider.
Motivation Deficit 4: The student is unmotivated because he or she fails to see an adequate pay-off to doing the assigned work.
This may align with deficit #2 and the whole jaded from the past thing. It also addresses the experience inherent in the descriptor "veteran". Chris, the seemingly unmotivated veteran teacher, may not be engaging because, in their professional opinion (which is based on years of experience) the new initiatives are simply ineffective or incomplete. Maybe tapping into Chris' expertise regarding the design of the new initiative might inspire motivation. Something to consider.
Motivation Deficit 5: The student is unmotivated because of low self efficacy—lack of confidence that he or she can do the assigned work.
Chris may feel incapable. This differs from #1. Some teachers may not have the skill, but only because they haven't had a chance to learn how. Teachers qualifying for the #5 deficit do not have the skill and do not believe they are capable of learning to do it even if they had a training opportunity. Maybe if Chris had a mentor to guide them through the emotional and technical hurdles associated with the new initiative they would both believe and achieve. Something to consider.
Motivation Deficit 6: The student is unmotivated because he or she lacks a positive relationship with the teacher.
Chris may feel the department chair or grade-level lead or principal doesn't like them. A personal issue stemming form a past professional disagreement, may be inferring with the current level motivation. It would take a deliberate and candid sequence of conversations, but the air needs to be clear before the sun cane shine. Moving beyond the cheesy metaphor, maybe if leadership modeled the initiative to engage in a professional dialogue with Chris, the personal issues could be resolved and the professional relationship enhanced. Something to consider.
Positive behavior support for students examines the "why" behind the child's behavior.I asked you to consider doing the same for your colleagues, for your teachers, for your "Chris". Let me know how it went. Comment below. Be sure to subscribe and engage in future conversations. Oh, for those of you who were concerned, no "Chris"es were harmed in the making of this blog post. Something to consider.

A few days ago, I featured "Sky" from the Florida outfit, Sweet Cambodia. The funk-inspired track is the perfect soundtrack to the beginning of summer. I recently caught up with the band and got to talk about "Sky" and some other things. Check it out below.
How did you guys first get together and decide you wanted to make music together?
Well each member came to Orlando in search of musical opportunity. Eric and Savvy met unconsciously at a open jazz night in the city. Eventually running into each other in the halls of Valencia College. Once they heard each other play, they found their musical soulmates. They decided right then,and there that they were going to put a band together. Eventually after a few drummers Donnie ended up at their audition. The same musical soul mate feeling filled the air as they Jammed together. Not even 5 minutes after he found out he was in the band he brought up a lead singer he knew who would be perfect. Cut to several months, and an audition later, Yante was apart of the band filling the last piece of the puzzle. There was a deeper calling when we all met each other that we would call cosmic.
You seem to have a natural chemistry together that sounds like you've been playing together for a while. It's quite apparent on "Sky", especially between the drums and the bass. What are you thinking as you play?
We each think about our own little world, but we also think of how we are interacting with each other. It's more about how do I make my friend sound better. If everyone thinks as a "we" and not an "I" the sound will only strengthen.
Sweet Cambodia has earned a bit of a reputation as a live act. What do you think you bring to the stage that makes it so intense and energetic?
Each of us approach the stage as our great release. We leave all the emotions we experience on that stage. It's how we survive. Life is hard and it's how we unwind. Also we believe we aren't just musicians. We are entertainers. You came to have a good time so let's party, and have a great time !
There's quite a range of sounds here. Who do you see an influences on Sweet Cambodia?
Each of us stem from very different places of music. Bringing together the sounds of Sublime, Chon, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Led Zeppelin. There's countless others, but those would be the main influences.
Check out "Sky" below.

The Patriots stack up statistically against the rest of the league about like you'd expect. They are all over the board -- excellent offensively; poor defensively.
One team stat jumps off the page, though, and it explains why the Patriots are dangerous going forward, where the strength of their defense is, how well Tom Brady is playing and -- more ominously -- how fortunate they are to be 4-3.
The stat is turnover differential. The Patriots are plus-11 in turnover differential. They've come up with 18 turnovers. The fumbles are what's astounding. New England's recovered 11 so far. And the fumble forced by Vince Wilfork in the first half Sunday didn't go down as a recovery although it caused a safety.
The Cardinals and Falcons are next in the NFL in fumble recoveries and they are at seven apiece.
Chandler Jones, Brandon Spikes and Rob Ninkovich have forcedrecovered three each. Jerod Mayo has the other one among the front-seven.
That kind of play at the front of the defense is what's allowing the Patriots to dodge bullets. So too is the care that Brady is taking with the ball. The Seattle game looms large because it was a winnable game and Brady had two big picks and a grounding that cost a field goal in a one-point loss. But nobody throws it more than Brady in the NFL and no quarterback turns it over by interception less frequently.
When you think of the timing of the big fumble recoveries -- late against the Broncos with Denver looking to close within three; Sunday in overtime, even the late one against the Cardinals when Arizona was trying to kill clock -- you see how dogged the Patriots front-seven has been.
The back end, of course, is a disaster statistically against the pass. They are 29th in terms of passing yards allowed (290 per game). Only the Saints, Bucs and Redskins are worse (303, 325 and 328 respectively). And the notion that the Patriots allow a lot of yards because they've been ahead by a bunch? Not real valid.
The top pass defenses in terms of yards allowed are the Niners, Steelers, Texans, Cowboys and Cardinals. All are decent teams and that are allowing 200 yards or fewer through the air.
The Patriots are 23rd in yards per game allowed, 24th in yards per play, eighth in rushing yards per game allowed, third in yards per attempt, 29th passing yards and 26th in net passing yards per play. They are also 25th in the league when it comes to getting off the field on third down.
Offensively, the Patriots are first in the NFL in yards per game, fifth in rushing yards per game, fifth in net passing yards, first in percentage intercepted per pass, first in first downs per game, third in third down efficiency, last in gross punting average, 31st in net punting and first in points.
As always, some stats need context and the punting stats are one. Zoltan Mesko certainly has had his share of regrettable punts but he is not the "worst" punter in the league as the net and gross averages would indicate. The Patriots' offensive potency means he has fewer opportunities to air it out from his own end than most punters. Evidence of this is that Mesko leads the AFC and is third in the NFL with 17 punts dropped inside the 20. Sunday, for example, four Mesko punts came from the Patriots 45 or further meaning a boomed punt would be an automatic touchback.
Other individual stats: Wes Welker leads the NFL in receiving yards with 688. He's second in YAC with 323 (Percy Harvin, 427). He leads the NFL in receptions with 54.
Welker is tied for third in targets with 74 (Larry Fitzgerald). Welker's 11 catches that result in third down conversions is one off the lead. Welker leads the NFL with 17 third-down receptions.
Brandon Lloyd is eighth in targets with 65. Lloyd's caught 35 of the passes his way.
Jerod Mayo leads the NFL with 71 tackles.
Devin McCourty is two off the NFL lead in passes defensed with nine.
Brady's completing 59.7 percent of his 4th quarter passes (40-67), His fourth quarter rating is 91.6 which is 12th.
Stevan Ridley leads the NFL with 43 first downs.
Finally, Stephen Gostkowski is second in the NFL in scoring among kickers (71 points) and is second in the NFL with 25 kickoffs than go for touchbacks.

Makati City, Swaziland (PressExposure) March 30, 2012 -- Knightsbridge Advisors will offer commodities to individual and corporate investors alike. The commodities that will be included in the initial offering are precious metals to include gold and Silver. The move aims to diversify the current investment portfolio that Knightsbridge is currently offering to its clientele. It will also give investors more options on where to park their money.
"Offering commodities will reinforce the Company's principles in prudent, long-term profitable investment strategies that will help weather the market's ups and downs and empowering the clients and to become their long-term, trusted partner through strategic financial planning." said Darren Brandman, Senior Investment Analyst of Knightsbridge Advisors.
Advantages in Investing in Commodities
In recent years the price of commodities continues to outperform the price of both the stocks and bonds. This was due to the high demand for commodities from emerging markets like China and India. The price of commodities will continue to increase in the future taking into consideration the rapid development happening in Asia coupled with limited supply in some commodities.
Investments in commodities like gold and silver will give institutions and individual investors alike higher return with less risk involved over time. The price of commodities bears a low or negative correlation to financial assets like stocks and bonds. When price of stocks goes down, the price of commodities move the other way. Commodity prices also behave positively during catastrophes and other crises.
Unlike stocks, the price of commodities tends to go up with inflation. During this time the price of commodities needed to produce goods increased thus compelling producers
to supply more commodities in the market. In the case of gold, when the economy is down consumers and institutions tend to hoard considering gold as a "safe-haven" in times of financial crisis. In the last five years, the price of gold continues to exhibit an upward movement.
Analysts predicted that the price of gold will continue to move upward to reach an average of $2,200 an ounce this year. The increase is due to high demand as more investors tend to park their money in "safe havens" instruments. Silver, which is also considered as a "safe haven" investment is seen to reach $50 an ounce in 2012.

Vermont White Pages Database
Vermont is a U.S. state that is located in the New England area. It is one of the smallest states in the country in both size and population. While the total population for Vermont is just over 600,000, it has just over 9,000 square miles. The only state that is less populated than Vermont is Wyoming. The states which border Vermont are New York, Massachusetts, and New Hampshire. Prior to the arrival of European settlers, this state was heavily inhabited by Native American groups such as the Iroquois and Algonquian groups. Vermont is well known for being a producer of dairy products. While the largest city in the state is Burlington, the capital city is Montpelier.
Like many states in the New England area, Vermont has a climate that is humid continental. While the summers are warm with high levels of humidity, the winters are cold. The GSP for Vermont was $22 billion in 2003, making it one of the lowest in the U.S. However, the primary reason for this is the size and low population of the state. The most important industry in this state is agriculture, and it accounts for more than $2 billion of the states GSP. Since it was founded, Vermont has had periods of rapid population growth and decline. While the state was originally inhabited by farmers, many of these farmers moved west looking for land that could be farmed. These farmers found the forest of Vermont to be impractical for their work. The most popular agricultural centers in this state are dairy farms.
