"Happy Birthday to my best friend!! 21 today! You are missed and loved every moment. I hope the 4 of us are together soon. It keeps me moving forward. I love you kid. Your momma"
"To my beautiful goddaughter who I miss every day. You would have turned 21 today. I love you and you are forever in my heart!"
"6 years ago today I lost my oldest daughter to the disease she battled every day. She was an amazing girl, who brought happiness to everyone who had the luck to meet her. There's a hole in my heart that will never be filled, but I know she is holding her sisters hand everyday as she battles through the same hurdles, and will be waiting with open arms for Me, Jenna, and her Daddy when our time comes. I love you Jordan, and miss my best friend every second of every day."
"Jordy, Happy 20th Birthday, my precious child! I was very busy yesterday on your Birthday and could not get a post on your day. I know you understand, because you know my heart! But that "was always you," God blessed our family with a wonderful, beautiful, loving, caring angel name Jordan McCann in 1996! You were wise beyond your years and had the ability to love others and wrap them around your heart! I love you and miss you more than words can say. From my heart to yours, I love you! XXOO Aunt Wocky Dittle"
"Today you are 20, Thank You my angel for the 14 1/2 Happiest years of my life! Loving you and missing you every minute of every day, Thank you for watching over Mommy and Jenna, and delivering our new home, I know you love it here, I feel your spirit, here, from the first time I saw this place, I Love You Jordy!! I'll see your eyes in every sunset, my perfect girl. Until I hold you in my arms again, I will hold you in my heart, always."
"Happy Birthday my precious Angel! My only wish is to be with you again. I know you wish for the same thing. Keep watching over your Daddy and me. Pay special attention to him today because he has a harder time on your birthday than other days. Keep coming to see your Boo. Touch my heart once in awhile. I always know it's you. I miss you all the misses in the universe. One day soon I hope. Your Mommy"
"My precious goddaughter, Happy Birthday! I'm writing this with tears in my eyes but joy and love in my heart, I miss you so very much but know you are in a better place. I will always love you!"
"As your birthday approaches, I miss you even more. I look thru the pics on here, and start to cry. I miss you so much. It's nice out now and I think of the times we used to go around the neighborhood and talk. I miss you so much Jordan...."
"Jordy, I was in surgery on Dec 9th, but my heart was with you. I love you and miss you every day, I am thankful that I was blessed to be your Aunt and friend. I hope you are ready for us on earth, as I think Jesus is coming very soon to bring His children home. Kisses and hugs from me and Uncle Al! See you soon!"
"My beautiful Jordan. A large part of my heart stopped 5 years ago today when you couldn't stay with us any longer. There's not a day that goes by that I don't miss you and wish you were here to laugh with and love on. Jenna misses you being here with her, but I still think that you visit her and take care of her. Thank you for being the best daughter. My happy memories make every day a little easier. Your Mommy misses you and loves you forever."
"Missing you so much. It's been 5 years since you went to heaven and I still think of you every day. Until we see each other again know that I will always love and remember you my precious goddaughter."
"Jordy...... I Didn't get a chance to know you But I know you through your sister And your daddy Who work for my daddy You were taken from us too soon And only God knows why I know that you are beautiful angel watching over your family and friends Just wanted to let you know that you are forever in our hearts We all love you We live through your sister And see you Rest in peace my dear child Until we all meet again A beautiful Angel you are my sweet Jordan Always in our hearts and never forgotten <3"
"My first born and the best friend I ever had. Jordy, we miss you every hour of every day. I know you are watching over me and giving me hugs to get me through on the hard days like today. You were always the lover and peacemaker in the family. You are 19 today! Wow! I can see you now, zooming through Heaven with your hair blowing in the wind on that cherry blossom pink motorcycle! Mommy and Daddy are going to spend the day together, hanging out in your favorite place. I'll be thinking about you, feeling sad about the hard times, and laughing about the fun ones. Happy Birthday Little Me! I love you! I miss you. I'll be there to hold you in my arms again. Love, Mommy"
"Jordan you touched so many lives even though you were only here to short a time of your earthly life and ours. I knew you only briefly through my sister who will always love you. Many when they get older say they do not celebtate their bithday anymore. But todays remembrance of you and your birthday taught me always celebrate, always remember ones birthday is the celebration of a special gift from God. A life that touches others, memories made that hold special meanings to treasure. Some day in heaven we will meet again and celebrate a very special gift God gave all of us when you came into and left our lives. Happy birthday Jordan, thank you God for sharing this precious angel with us here on earth."
I miss your smile, your heart for people, and your zest for life! You have left so many with so much! Delightful and beautiful young lady, gone too soon! My heart is breaking missing you, and loving you! I know I will see you again with a healthy body and can not wait to hold you and hug you real tight! You would have been 19 today, but i heaven you will live forever!
"Another year has come and gone since you left us to be with God. I miss you every day and can't wait till we are reunited with all of loved ones in his presence. You are still the greatest gift I ever received and no words can express the joy you brought into my life! Say hi to my mom and everyone else there with you! Forever missed, Never forgotten!"
"Love you, miss you, can't wait to hug you again. Jesus is coming soon, so we won't have long to wait! I know you will have a great birthday party with the Lord on His birthday! You are sooo loved and missed by sooooo many. Hugs, Aunt Wocky Dittle"
"Happy Birthday Butterfly.
I didn't know her well enough, but thinking of Jordan always reminds me of butterflies, and butterflies always remind me of Jordan. She is a butterfly who has been let out of the jar. She is enjoying her freedom up there with her grandfather. When you see a butterfly, think of Jordan. Fly Jordan!"
"Happy Birthday, sweet angel! Hope you are having a great one in heaven! Tell pop pop I said hi! Loving you and missing you baby girl! Until we meet again, I will miss you. Hugs and kisses! Aunt Wocky Dittle.xxoo"

I love you always Jordie! Aunt Rain"

Sweetie I hope your mom didn't care but I placed a song on your site. The name of it is Precious Child."
"Jordy, So did you help Jesus blow out the candles on His birthday cake? So many people down here forget who the season is all about. Some even want to take His name off of the "holiday." I'm glad we know that Jesus is the reason for the season! I miss you, and I love you. Thanks for watching over us, I will see you again, my sweet niece, my sweet angel! xxoo Aunt Rocky - give pop hugs too!"

I will never forget how you gave Ori and I such a hard time when we didn't play that stupid hand held game correctly! God Bless you and your family forever! Love you Jordan!!!"
"I can't believe you have been gone for a year!!! I tell Lily about you all of the time and we look at your pictures and smile. You were the best little cousin anyone could ask for.

No words can heal the pain you are feeling and experiencing right now.Please know that you are all in my prayers and thoughts.I never met Jordan but I remember Joey and I being in Hopkins together when my daughter was fighting Leukemia and remember the love that beamed from him when he spoke of her.Take comfort in knowing that through our Lord you will see Jordan again one day."
"I've learned in life that you do not have to necessarily know someone personally for their life to impact yours! I am deeply sorrowful for your separation from Jordy. However, I celebrate the victory in Christ knowing that she has returned to God where she will suffer no more pain. May your family rest in the Peace of God which surpasses all understanding! Sending you all that there is...L*O*V*E"

We have been friends for a very long time. The pain of losing a child is hard, but God is there with comfort. I only met Jordie a few times, but she was such a delight. We read together each time. I still remember her smiling face, God Bless.The music is so apropriate . The pictures delightful. She is beautiful. Joey, she is you."

"Joey your friends at Key Yacht Club would like to send you and your family our prayers and condolances. If there is anything we can do please contact us."
"I always loved Jordan's sense of humor, attitude and her style! It was so neat how much she enjoyed everything Japanese. Every time I see anime, I think of her.
I will never forget her reading to me from her japanese-themed books at my desk, and explaining to me every detail in the books. :) She was a joy to be around.
She will always be loved and remembered on the PCRU."
"McCann Family - I enjoyed seeing pictures of Jordan on Facebook. She was always smiling. Having someone that you loved pass away is hard. Always remember the great times you had with her. She will always be around you. You will have bad and good days but she is now running and playing free with no pain in Heaven. She is your Guardian Angel."
"Hi Joey, I only know you from karaoke and never got to meet your daughter in person.....however, I know how special she was to you and many, and I feel like I knew her through you......I'm sure she was just wonderful....just like you are....God Bless your little angel who is now at peace....and I hope you can be also, knowing she's in a much better place, called Heaven, with her Heavenly Father."
"Jordan was not only my goddaughter but my best friend. Her constant smile and quick wit kept me going. She never complained about her many trials and tribulations caused by her disease.Everyone and anyone who ever met her fell in love with her and I will always be so proud of her. I love you Jordie Pie and I will never forget you!"
"I made this website because my bestfrien jordan passed away she suffered from methylmalonic acidemia for ther was no cure. She suffered a great deal in her 14 yrs here but never let her get her down always smiling that is what i remeber most about her. i want to try to raise money for a cure for what her and her sister have. you are gone but never forgotten i love you and know you are in heaven"

Are you worried that swelling is not going away even after six days of lip piercing? Well, you don't need to, because swelling after lip piercing for primary four to six days is but obvious. But not an issue, because here we bring you some efficacious ways that will speedily cut down the infliction, wounding and swelling caused due to it. Even the aftercare ideas will prove a great help to you. Swelling is the first and foremost stage after lip piercing.
As per the information provided by the professional piercers association, this swelling after getting lip pierced is a general inflammatory procedure which begins to appear from the very first day and turns out to be extreme on the third and fourth day. This irritation will leave your mouth fidgety, hot and tumefied. Still, the question remains the same. How long this trouble will prevail? Though the pain intensifies for about four to six days but actually it starts healing automatically after first three days. So, till the time there are no other issues except numbness and swelling, things will go fine soon. But in case if the jewelry begins to imbed or percolate then you need to make an immediate rush to your piercer and get your jewellery changed to a little big one in size. The reason behind is that when the accessory is small in size, it heightens the amount of pressure and infliction over the nearby tissues and this further leads to redness and increased soreness. Mark a point that if you notice any sort of pain or swelling at the backside of your ears or neck, then you need to rush for a proper medical cure as this signalizes infection.
Another most important thing that you need to take care of is that, if you find that the swelling returns again even after getting cured for once i.e. like after a week or month then this also signalizes infection with lot of potential. So, make an immediate consultation to the doctor without wasting any more time. Moreover, green pus and extreme pain is sure to be a part of new lip piercing.
Though Lip piercing gives you a modern and stylish look but we cannot forget the fact that lip is one of the most sensitive organs of our body which is full of nerves. So, when your delicate lips go through the trouble of swelling, they should be taken the utmost care. Below are some simple measures to cut down the soreness and the best part is that these are available at your home itself so you need not to rush anywhere to search for the relief. These are:
- To ease yourself from irritation, pain and inflammation, you can take anti-inflammatory medicament like Ibuprofen.
- Ice has always been considered as one of the best medicaments to cure swelling speedily. Take one small ice cube and apply it over the swelling area. The other way could to be to take one ice cube and let it unfreeze in your mouth. Repeat the same at least five to six times a day and you will feel the comfort soon but use the ice on swollen area for not more than fifteen minutes.
- While you sleep, add more than one pillow below your head so that blood clots are not formed around the pierced portion. Such a trick will alleviate the reason of causing further infection and irritation.
- After having food or any eatable and smoking, immediately gargle your mouth with a branded non-alcoholic medicated solution various times in a day. Now how this will help? This will clean your mouth thoroughly and remove any sort of food remains. This will save you from any sort of infection and will not worsen swelling further.
- As mentioned earlier that little bleeding and swelling are but obvious after getting lip pierced but as the words of precaution it is strictly advisable to deflect smoking, eating, drinking for at least first four to five hours after piercing.
- Neither use excess mouth wash not do redundant cleaning for more than two times else it might increase your discomfort and soreness.
As fresh lip piercing cause a wound, so at the early stage discomforts like: swelling, pain, numbness is natural and these might continue for some days. Though bleeding is a normal phenomenon with pierced lip but at times it also re occurs with cured piercings too. It might occur after two-three days or after a month. But you need not to panic because if in case bleeding still prevails, all you need to do is to take correct medication. There are many reasons behind such bleeding and those could be:
- Touching the pierced area again and again
- Pressurizing the pierced portion and this can happen when you sleep
- Taking pain killers like aspirin, which also work as blood thinner
- Consuming alcohol
- Any sort of bleeding disorder that exhibits the clotting elements
- Smoking again and again
- Pulling the crust that has been formed
In case if the bleeding continues after lip piercing, it is not only a sign of major infection but can also be an indicant of any trauma or new injury. Do not even try to remove the crust else it might also lead to bleeding. The appropriate way to do the same should be to clean the pierced area with a saline solution or any medicated mouth wash. Then let the crust drench that solution so that it can be later took out without causing any bleeding further.
Also, do not prefer to go for any externally threaded jewellery or accessory on the pierced part. Rubbing of such jewellery might also initiate this problem. So, the best idea would be to prefer internally threaded accessory or jewellery especially on the fresh lip piercing. To make sure that the threads are not rigid, only check when you hands are clean, that is properly washed. This will help you to prevent any sort of infection. If bleeding still prevails, use ice cubes to provide instant relief.
Though your piercer will definitely guide on the dos and the don'ts after getting lip pierced but here is some additional information which will not only heal the piercing quickly but will help you a lot in saving it from infection and irritation. So, learn and remember these aftercare tips thoroughly so that you can have a safe piercing.
- Only use a moderate type of tooth paste and tooth brush with gentle bristles to clean your teeth.
- Smoking & Drinking is strictly prohibited at the early stage of piercing. The reason behind is because smoking alters the PH scale of your mouth and the alcohol dilutes the blood. Still if you can't resist without smoking then make sure you properly clean your mouth after doing the same.
- If you are the one who use oral hygiene products which has alcohol content in it then immediately stop doing so after the process of lip piercing. Prefer the one that has been advised to you and do the cleaning only two times in a day and not more.
- Never ever touch the pierced part with unwashed hands. Make sure that whenever you have to touch it, you clean your hands with a medicated hand wash and then go ahead.
- Ignore any sort of kissing or oral sex at the early phase of piercing as this might increase the discomfort and there are more chances of diseases getting transferred from one to other.
- Clean your mouth after having anything so that no food particles are left behind.
- After getting lip pierced, be a little extra hygienic. Change your bed sheet and pillow covers in every one week so that it does not give rise to any bacterial infection.
- Do not play with the jewellery or accessory that has been pierced, especially at the initial stage as things might turn worst for you.
- Avoid eating junk food for some time; rather eat healthy food as much as possible. Consume only healthy things which are rich in vitamins, minerals, nutrients etc. The reason is because a healthy body recovers quickly.
- Go for saline water soaks for at least two times in day. Dip your lower lip in the saline solution and let the process of healing fasten up.
VERY IMPORTANT: Though there are few professional piercers who advise to move or rotate your accessory or jewellery of the pierced place but as per the feedback it has been found that this has proved to be problematic rather than any sort of comfort. So, avoid doing so if not needed. You are advised to do the same only when you need to clean that place from soap or face wash and that too with lukewarm medicated water. What happens is; at the time of healing, the cells inside the skin configure a tube like structure which helps in healing process and when the jewellery is rotated, healing is interrupted because those cells are destructed. So, it's better to not to do.
After a new piercing, your top most area of concern should be cleaning, cleaning and only cleaning as this is the only way that can save piercing from getting infected. But yes, this does not mean that you do not any other task apart from cleaning as it is strictly advisable that cleaning should only be done on limited intervals and not much. Remember the proverb-'Excess of anything is harmful'. So, same goes here as well. Our purpose is to stay away from infection and ensure quick healing. Over-cleaning will defeat our purpose and increase many more problems.
Check out the ways:
- Only use mild soap to wash your hands and make sure you do so before and after you touch the pierced area.
- Make the use of a modest mouthwash after you have something or you drink something. In case even if this causes irritation, mix half water to it and then gargle your mouth.
- While washing face or bathing, make the use of lukewarm water and soft soap. If you wish to clean the pierced area you can do so by creating some lather from the soap but don't let it stay on the pierced portion for more than half minute. Also, make sure that you thoroughly cleaned the pierced part so that there is no left-over of soap in it else it might cause a big problem for you.
- Avoid the usage of cloth towels as they are more prone to bacteria and might stuck in jewellery of the pierced area. So, use pat dry paper towel that can be disposed off immediately after use and there are no chances of getting tugged or infected.
- You can make the saline solution yourself and use it over the lip pierced. All you need to do is to take eight ounce of warm purified water in a clean mug and mix one-fourth teaspoon of sea salt to it and the saline solution is ready. Apply the saline soaks as mentioned for about two times in a day for ten minutes each.
You are sure to look stunning with lip piercing and if you take care of the above points, this tough task can turn out to be very much easy for you. Well, there is no gain without pain but when you have ways to cure the pain why not to use them. With a hope that this article will prove a great help to you, we hope for a safe and healthy piercing. Don't forget to comment and let us know about your experience.

Gotham Books (2003), $25
In a perfect world, we'd know that we're being judged "not by the color of our skin but by the content of our character." Still, how far are we from living Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream? Isn't it just a matter of African-Americans realizing that we are no longer merely a race of oppressed people, but are also vibrant, active partners in the American system? It would seem that John McWhorter, author of the controversial book Losing the Race, believes so -- and thinks the message was so nice he had to write it twice.
In fact, Authentically Black, McWhorter's second book, is more an addendum to Losing the Race than a repetition. If it weren't for the author's constant -- and annoying -- references to his original book (he even rebuts his reviews), it might have been possible to consider this a great work on its own. I did enjoy McWhorter's interesting interpretations of subjects like racial profiling and "the double consciousness of African-Americans," but he often gets too cocky. After successfully making a point, he then pushes it too far.
Although many will find McWhorter's views agitating, few can argue that he doesn't make excellent points; in some cases, like the "victimology practices" of black politicians, he hits the nail on the head. One could easily find oneself torn between McWhorter's obvious agenda and one's own experiences. Still, for sheer brain food, both of his books are must-reads.

Tagged: pdf invoices, woo commerce
I bought the PDF Invoice extention about 2 weeks days ago but I so far I was not able to figure out how to customize it to the style I want.
I already do not understand what the description of the plugin means by: "To customize the template first you should create a copy in your theme. wp-content/themes/YOUR_THEME/pdf_templates/template.php Once you have the file there you can edit away."
(there is so far no such folder called pdf_template in my theme)
I contacted Woo-themes, but did not get any reply aver since and therefore I am hoping that the great supporting team of "Kriesi" can help me out on this issue :)
Do you have any idea how I can change the PDF setting and (most important) change it into german?
i.e.: which file I have to copy and where to?
Hi Lillieleen,
While we are not able to actually give support on third party plugins what that is saying is that you actually need to create that folder structure in your theme files.
Eg, go to your wp-content>themes>replete folder via FTP and then create a folder called pdf_templates. Inside of that file you would then add the template.php file which can be customized as needed.
Good luck :)

Atlas Van Lines, as part of Atlas World Group, is a leading supplier of moving services to individuals and corporations. The industry is made of hundreds of suppliers, with five major traditional van line competitors. Atlas ranks second among the top five van lines. Atlas is known in the industry for having high quality services, and is favored by corporations for relocating employees. In January of 2011, new Atlas Van Lines President Jack Griffin realized a need to revitalize the brand. While Atlas is differentiated among van lines, the entire industry had taken a particular beating – as a direct result of the housing crisis that was reached its greatest depths in 2007 through 2009. The industry was showing signs of recovery as 2011 began. Atlas was particularly strong. It was time to tell corporate and individual audiences a positive message about Atlas, and about possible return of the entire household goods moving industry. While household moving is a large percentage of the Atlas business, Jack asked that any new branding take into account the diversity of the company that makes Atlas unique on a global basis.
Atlas marketing teams included a group of twenty from across Atlas corporate, Atlas subsidiaries, and Atlas agents. The inclusiveness of the team proved to be its greatest strength. Members of the marketing team met with DBD early in the process to discover the project. Everything was put on the table – including the definition of the objective – in a process known as DISRUPTION. The years since 2007 had changed the industry, it was time to look at everything. Every sacred cow was put up for scrutiny – from communications plans and tactics to business policies. Many cows became part of a proud history. The three-month process included two disruption meetings involving corporate and agent representatives. In a third meeting of all marketing team members, a direction was proposed and approved. A fourth meeting had marketing team members present a proposal to the company's board of directors. Following board approval, the new Atlas direction was previewed in November to 600 members of the agent in attendance at the annual convention.
Most important during all of the preparation, it was understood that all customer relationships – whether corporate or residential – begin with human, emotional involvement. "Atlas. Go new places.®" became the new company statement to customers and internal headquarters staff, agents and partners around the world. Sometimes, going to a new place just meant doing something in a slightly different way. Sometimes it meant moving things to a whole new town. Sometimes it meant moving several things to many towns, all at once. But, regardless of how small or large the move, it could be a big leap from where a person or organization once was. Atlas and its customers were going new places, inside their organizations and around the world. The communications objective was to let the world know that Atlas was a diverse company with the resources to take them to whatever new place they needed to go – whether it was new systems for greater efficiency, new domestic relocation solutions, or worldwide logistics and facility management.

Free Schools, For-profit Schools and the Swedish Slide
Thank you. It is, as ever, a great pleasure to speak from the platform of England's oldest continuously published magazine.
And especially so on education, which has always been one of its uppermost concerns.
Indeed, it was from these pages in November 1711, some seven months after the first edition, that your founder, Joseph Addison, offered one of the most memorable quotes about the nature of education. He said:
"I consider an human soul without education like marble in the quarry, which shews none of its inherent beauties till the skill of the polisher fetches out the colours, makes the surface shine, and discovers every ornamental cloud, spot and vein that runs through the body of it."
Which may or may not be the first, or the last time you hear that quote today…
Of course last time I spoke to you, I was collecting an award for 'Best Newcomer' at your Parliamentarian of the Year Awards.
And with it sits an accompanying note from the current editor of this organ, entreating once more about the merits of the Free School programme.
But I am afraid I have come here today to do precisely the opposite – and to spell out the Labour Party's opposition to the government's Free Schools Programme.
Many of the reasons for this are entirely pragmatic and even ardent champions of the Programme would surely admit that the last few months have been damaging to its credibility.
The regressing literacy and general 'disarray' at IES Breckland in Suffolk.
Not much chance of social mobility if pupils cannot learn to read.
All sorts of mysterious financial goings on at the Kings Science Academy in Bradford.
And in the Al-Madinah Free School in Derby a school in such difficulties that Ofsted had practically to invent a new 'dysfunctional' category in order to place it within its framework.
As the National Audit Office has said: "the primary factor in decision-making has been opening schools at pace, rather than maximising value for money".
Which perhaps explains how the likes of Al-Madinah got over the threshold, as well as highlighting the monumental waste to the taxpayer as a consequence.
So let's forget the broader educational arguments for a moment – this is an initiative that has been run with a staggering and insouciant incompetence, one which should disappoint its followers every bit as much as its critics.
Such administrative sloppiness is, in part, the consequence of centralising the oversight of schools within the Department of Education.
You simply cannot effectively monitor 5,000 schools from a desk in Whitehall – not least if John Nash is behind it.
That is why this spring, David Blunkett will announce the results of his review of our schools system, which we hope will monitor standards more effectively, make schools more accountable to parents, cut down on waste, introduce a more transparent way of commissioning new school places and help to stimulate local collaboration and innovation.
However, in my speech today I also what to take on the philosophical arguments behind the Free School programme and – in its place – outline the Labour Party's alternative.
What is more, I contend that it is in fact the Government's Free Schools programme that is intellectually inconsistent because of its failure to embrace an absolutely vital element of the Friedmanite argument behind the experiment: the profit-motive.
However, first I want to run through a practical example in order to illustrate our problems with the Free Schools programme.
Because tomorrow, as children across the country break up for the Easter holiday, one school will shut its doors for good.
That is of course the Discovery Free School in Crawley, one of the initial wave of 24 free schools that opened in 2011.
In fairness, it is a relatively small school with around 70 primary pupils, yet the closure could still cost the taxpayer as much as £2m in waste.
But perhaps the true cost of the failure only becomes apparent when you consider the impact from the perspective of parent and pupil.
And recently I received a letter from one such disgruntled parent, a Ms. Emily Leppenwall.
She writes:
"Having been a free school parent from the policy's inception, I can categorically say that the notion of a 'free school' is the definition of 'playing politics' if ever there was one. Unfortunately it has been at the expense of my children's education.
She then goes on to allege that it was the Education Secretary himself who approved the application and that "from that decision onwards, a couple with no formal teaching qualifications, or experience in running a school were given a budget of £500,000 to play school with".
Despite, she suggests, "their lack of experience and ineptitude being palpable from the beginning".
And from that point on the school was left "largely unmonitored" even thought it was "inevitable that a storm would brew".
She concludes:
"No free school is safe. I expect to see many more in the coming years fail spectacularly and close, failing the children they were set up to serve. And when they do fail they pose a logistical re-schooling nightmare. Not to mention the years of wasted of public money."
Now we in the Labour Party can understand how all this stress and disruption might have a detrimental impact upon a child's education.
But there is little in any of it that should trouble advocates of the Free Schools programme.
Indeed, they should positively welcome such news, for it is precisely this Schumpeterian 'fly or fail' creative destruction that is its intellectual justification.
Make no mistake: this is a free market approach red in tooth and claw and the true believer maintains that just as businesses are subject to the law of the jungle in the private sphere, so should schools be in the public.
The editor of this magazine is one such believer. In a recent response to an article of mine he suggested "if you set up 300 new businesses, you'd expect at least 30 to hit trouble".
Arguably, given start-up success rates, a rather conservative estimate.
Yet were this competitive schools landscape writ as large as its proponents surely desire, that estimate of failure would see the tax-payer writing down a bare minimum of £5.5bn.
And that figure assumes that 'non-failing' schools go on to sustain their success as well as ignoring the extra costs usually involved in getting any new venture off the ground.
So the question we have to ask ourselves is can the British taxpayer really afford such an enormous liability on an untested and ideological strategy of school improvement when it is explicitly predicated on a certain amount of waste?
In the Labour Party our answer, particularly in such difficult economic circumstances, has to be a resounding no.
We believe in autonomy – that is why we will extend freedoms enjoyed by academies to all schools.
We believe in innovation and will encourage it in all schools, whilst our parent-led academy programme will ally the social entrepreneurship of parents, teachers and innovators who want to set up new schools, to the local need for places.
And we believe in competition too – the competition of esteem that is a natural human impulse and in a week or so will, I feel certain, propel Mo Farah to victory over Ed Balls and all-comers over 26.2 miles of the London Marathon.
Outstanding leadership, excellent teaching, networks of collaboration and partnership such as the London Challenge – we simply believe there are far more effective ways to improve performance that work with existing resources and avoid the unnecessary chaos we will see in Crawley tomorrow.
However, it is a tad misleading of me to suggest that Fraser Nelson entirely endorses this wasteful school system.
Indeed, I am doing him something of a disservice. Because there is one way you can mitigate some of the financial risk to the taxpayer.
That is, simply, do not take all of it on.
Instead, you incentivize investment in new schools from the private sector by implementing a voucher-based funding system and removing the regulation stipulating that schools cannot be run for-profit.
This of course is the Swedish way and it is a model beloved of all true free marketeer educationalists.
And as well as Fraser, it used to count our very own Education Secretary as one of its champions.
"We have seen the future in Sweden and it works" he told the Daily Mail back in 2008.
"After 15 years, 900 schools have been created and standards have been driven up. If it can work there it can work here".
Now, nobody could possibly argue that the Swedish model was not radical. Expansion was rapid – as of last year nearly a quarter of their secondary age pupils attended one of the publically owned, privately run 'free schools', half of which are owned or part-owned by private equity firms.
And truly this a system that fully embodies a 'fly or fail' competitive culture – as parents of the 10,000 pupils at the private equity owned JB Education found to their cost last year, when the chain went bust.
However, in the face of overwhelming international evidence, the idea that these schools have raised standards seems almost impossible to sustain.
Indeed, the scale of Sweden's slide on the OECD's PISA measurements is truly staggering.
In the latest batch, no other nation recorded as big a drop from their 2009 score in reading or maths. And only Malaysia's performance in science stopped Sweden from taking a most unwanted clean sweep.
Taking the long view hardly helps matters. In 2003 Sweden was ranked 17th in the mathematics global league table. Now it is ranked 38th.
In reading it was ranked 8th. Now it is ranked 36th.
And it has fallen from 15th to 38th in science.
Furthermore, this slump in performance is backed up by other, less well known metrics. In both the Third International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and in the Progress in International Reading Literacy Study the story is the same.
And the evidence published last year by Skolverket, the Swedish National Education Agency, shows that inequality is increasing too.
So, it does seem odd to aspire for a model here, which we already outperform.
As that otherwise avid advocated of free markets, the Economist magazine, has argued:
"Sweden is now one of the few countries to show both worse results and more inequality. Free school choice is a contributing factor."
I could hardly have put it better myself.
However, I am sure it will not surprise you to learn that we in the Labour Party do not take seriously the case in favour of for-profit schooling.
We find it difficult to stomach the idea that money which would be better spent on classroom equipment, innovative teacher training or extra-curricular facilities, should instead be spent on shareholder dividends.
Moreover, as I have said, we do not believe that an aggressively competitive, 'fly or fail' approach is necessary to raise school standards.
All I do mean to highlight is that for those of you who do believe in the free schools model, the government's Free School programme is surely an intellectual half-way house; a messy compromise that does not display the courage of its convictions and make the case for a proper free-market, profit-motivated system.
Because the truth is that without that element – it is difficult to see how the Free Schools Programme can ever go hand in hand with a pragmatic, fiscally conservative approach to guaranteeing good value for the taxpayer.
But if we reject that competitive model – how would the Labour Party raise school standards?
First, we would ensure schools come together in networks of challenge and collaboration, working together to raise standards and root out underperformance.
We saw the success of this approach through the London Challenge model, and we want to build on those experiences across England. Because the challenge now is not so focused on the capital: it is in quite areas of under-performance from Norfolk to East Berkshire, the Isle of Wight to Stoke-on-Trent.
Second, we would give outstanding head-teachers in all schools the freedom to innovate and make decisions about what is best for their pupils.
Third, we would make sure that highly qualified teachers are trusted to awaken the passion for learning that a strong society and a growing economy so desperately needs.
Because the Labour Party strongly believes that raising the standard of teaching in our schools and colleges represents the surest way to improve our children's attainment.
As educationalists from Sir Michael Barber and Andreas Schleicher from the OECD have all argued, no education system can possibly exceed the quality of its teachers.
Yes, innovation, accountability and autonomy – underpinned by safeguards and minimum standards – matter enormously.
But what the evidence clearly shows is that it is teacher quality that makes the biggest difference in schools.
What is more, its importance is even more pronounced when it comes to children from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Research from the Sutton Trust has shown that without social capital or parental input to fall back upon, teacher quality can mean as much as year's difference to the learning progress of disadvantaged children.
Therefore, my first priority as Education Secretary in a Labour Government would be to make sure we have a world class teacher in every classroom, studio or workshop – a highly qualified, self-motivating and dedicated professional workforce that reflects and enquires about its own practice.
So as well as ending the employment of unqualified teachers and making sure that initial teacher training is preparing teachers properly for the pressure of the classroom, we will expect teachers to undertake regular professional development throughout their careers and revalidate their expertise in order to keep their skills and knowledge up to date.
And we would look to create a framework of new career pathways for teachers, so that teachers who want to build their expertise in a particular subject or pedagogical practice are given the opportunity to progress in their careers whilst staying in the classroom.
In Shanghai, all teachers have a teaching qualification and undergo 240 hours of professional development within the first five years of teaching.
Meanwhile in Singapore, all teachers are entitled to 100 hours of CPD every year.
Those are the countries we should be looking towards – the best performing jurisdictions in the world.
Yet instead we are that the answer to all our education woes is a Swedish model that has contributed to declining standards, rising inequality and an unprecedented slide down international league tables.
It pains me to end on the magazine of Bagehot rather than Addison, but let me again turn to the Economist:
New education stars can emerge and old ones fade fast. But the broader lesson may be simple, if brutal. Successful countries focus fiercely on the quality of teaching and eschew zigzag changes of direction or philosophy.
Ladies and Gentleman, if we win in 2015 that is exactly what Labour will do.
Thank you.

Jodi Breakers, R. Madhavan's second outing as a solo hero in as many movies, has been slapped with plagiarism charges. Bollywood is not new to such charges and music directors have been consistently embroiled in similar controversies. However, as far as producers and filmmakers are concerned, in most cases they buy out the rights of the original to avoid any hassles later.
It is being said that Jodi Breakers has resemblance to the Belgian movie "Heartbreakers". In most cases, such allegations are settled behind closed doors and in some cases the about to be released movie turns out to be loosely inspired by the original. While not many would know since Jodi Breakers has not released and most people have not seen "Heartbreakers", it is likely the controversy would fuel the promotional activities and hype the film further.

|Portobello pizza caps from a few weeks ago: hollowed out caps with tomato sauce, red onion, bits of chopped portobello stem, and fresh basil leaves, drizzled with olive oil and baked till the sauce is bubbly and hot.
I don't have a witty introduction this week, just a bone-tired yet resolute commitment to get back in the swing of meal planning now that we've somewhat settled into our new place.
Monday: Easy Fish Tacos
I don't have a recipe for these, because there's really nothing to making them other than picking out whatever fish looks good at the store, and sautéing it up with a little olive oil, cayenne, garlic powder, and lime juice. I flake the fish, then portion it into soft white corn tortillas heated up slightly under the broiler and top them off with whatever I have on-hand: sometimes cabbage and crème fraîche; sometimes avocado, scallions, and cilantro; sometimes a crumble of cheese (goat or feta or queso fresco) and some pickled onions or fresh salsa. The whole production comes together in about 15 minutes, and it's a meal on its own, so no need to worry about side dishes.
Tuesday: Baked Lemon Chicken with Asparagus
I love being able to throw stuff in a pan and let it bake while I get something else accomplished. The 30 to 40-minute window always feels like a golden little pocket of time, enough for a quick run, a tidying up of the house, or a phone call to my mom, made all the more sweet with the knowledge that a wonderful dinner awaits. The linked recipe doesn't include asparagus, but I'll just combine it in the same pan with a little extra olive oil, garlic, or lemon.
Wednesday: Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato Soup and Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
I rarely eat grains anymore, but I have had a serious craving for a grilled cheese sandwich lately, so I decided I'm going to indulge my craving in the cleanest way possible: gluten-free bread with grass-fed cheddar grilled up in some ghee and a side of organic roasted red pepper and tomato soup. It's definitely not Paleo, but it's also not the end of the world. I'm going to enjoy every bite!
Thursday: Leftover Baked Chicken with Kale Salad
I'll have leftover chicken from Tuesday's meal (I always make extra chicken), so I'll mix things up by serving it with a quick kale salad (kale, shredded carrot, scallions, avocado, slivered almonds, coconut aminos, and toasted sesame oil). It'll be quick, healthy, and delicious, which means it meets all three elements of my weeknight meal criteria.
Friday: Dinner out with friends
Saturday: TBD, with my friend Mira
My best friend Mira is coming over on Saturday to spend the day helping me get my new patio in order. We plan to get some veggies and herbs planted, put furniture together, and perhaps, if we're feeling especially ambitious, tackle a few other DIY decor projects. (That Mira is the kind of person to willingly and enthusiastically volunteer for this kind of thing is one reason among many why she is my best friend.) A light yet satisfying meal sounds just right after a long day's work outdoors. I'm looking forward to enjoying just that on my new patio. A cheese, charcuterie, and fruit platter perhaps? Rosé sounds like a good idea too.
What are you cooking and eating this week?
Check out past meal plans here for more inspiration.

The CAFSD traces its roots from the Batac Rural High School (BRHS), which was established in 1918. In 1969, BRHS was transformed into the Ilocos Norte Institute of Technology (INIT), a pioneering college. Although, it was not formally a college yet, two major fields in agriculture were then offered. These were animal husbandry and agronomy. Thus, in 1971, INIT produced its first graduates of the Bachelor of Science in Agriculture program.
On December 19, 1974, INIT was converted into Mariano Marcos Memorial College of Science and Technology (MMMCST). The college then was composed of three departments, namely: agriculture, forestry, and home technology.
The College of Agriculture (CA) was formally established when MMMCST was transformed into the Mariano Marcos State University on January 6, 1978 by virtue of Presidential Decree 1279. Its new building was constructed from 1981-1982 and on June 15, 1982; the faculty and the students finally occupied it. The college was renamed College of Agriculture and Forestry (CAF) in 1985.
By virtue of Memorandum No. 010-048 issued by the Office of the MMSU President on April 27, 2010, CAF was renamed College of Agriculture , Food and Sustainable Development (CAFSD) in order to reflect cohesion of program offerings and for the necessary focus expected of its status as National University of Agriculture.
Right now, the CAFSD has five undergraduate degree programs, namely:
Mission of the College
The CAFSD is mandated to provide quality instruction and training in agriculture, forestry, and home technology/hospitality management, and rural development, and improve the lives of the people through the conduct of relevant and high impact research studies and effective delivery of extension services.

The Project, the lighter news program broadcast six nights a week on Network Ten in Australia has gone through a number of changes of format and timeslot since its inception.
It has defied this instability – (usually a recipe for alienating fans) – and continues to improve its ratings position.
But it isn't all improvement, it would appear, after the brace of racist jokes on Twitter this evening:


text: Just thought I would share my impressions of the Evo from the Hero point of view. I have had my Hero for five months now and have rooted and DC romed it. It's very fast and works 100%. My friend got the new Evo and asked for my help. Well yes it's bigger then my Hero and that's about it. I like the look and feel better on my Hero but this is my phone. After all the hype about the new phone I just didn't see that much to get excited about. Sure it has the snappy snap dragon processor but apparently it eats the battery alive. I spent the first five minutes toggling off all the things I could turn off and I think this will help but, frankly it's going to take more then that phone to get me out of the Hero. My friend handled my Hero and liked the smaller size better too. The interfaces were the same and the only difference to the lay person is the size. I believe if I had the choice again and all things in pricing were equal I would choose the Hero again. Much more happier with my phone today after this experience. Just wanted to share that as you all have been so helpful sorting out my phone. But a rooted and customized Hero will go to toe to toe with the Evo for now........... Just my opinion......... Lisa P.S. Plus she is paying $10 a month extra for 4G and doesn't even have the coverage yet in this area. Way to go Sprint!

Other Grades
15% OF YOUR GRADE will be based upon a paper concerning the book Vacationland. The question is: "In William Philpott's Vacationland, how success are the people of Colorado at shaping nature to their needs? [Very successful? Moderately successful? Not successful at all?] Why? Explain your answer, quoting passages from the book to help you demonstrate the justification for your assessment. The resulting paper should be 5-7 pages long, double-spaced, 1″ margins.
10% OF YOUR GRADE will be based upon two wiki entries, one individual and one group (5% each). The Southern Colorado History Wiki is here. Your assignments are to research and compose two entries for the Southern Colorado History wiki: One broad entry as a group and one individual entry that would fall under that subject. Group entries might focus on subjects like a single town (like Walsenberg), a region (like the San Luis Valley), an industry (like smelting) or an activity (like baseball). An individual entry should involve something that would serve as a subheading of your larger group entry like the Walsenberg town hall, a smaller town in the San Luis Valley (like Alamosa) a particular smelter or a particular baseball team. You are welcome to kill two birds with one stone by using material from your group project for the wiki if you can find subjects related to your digital work that are not already posted there.
Writing for a wiki is different than writing for a professor. It should be research based, but since it is intended for a broader audience it should be primarily narrative, moving from the very broad towards the very specific. That means that all entries should begin with an introduction to your subject rather than with a thesis. Group entries should be between 2,000 and 3,000 words and contain at least 5 images. Individual entries should be between 500 and 1,000 words and contain at least 2 images.
Writing a wiki entry requires additional skills not usually utilized in writing assignments. Besides explaining yourself, you need to decide how best to contextualize and illustrate your explanations. Since you have group entries, you also need to learn how to work with others (including the staff who man the depositories where your historical material resides).

Minster FM News
Drax scrap Biomass plant
3:28pm 22nd February 2012
A new biomass power plant planed for Yorkshire has been scrapped.
Drax has announced that the two billion pound development is not being backed enough by the Govenment.
Around 600 jobs were going to be created by the project.
The company have said they're hoping to invest half a billion pounds in to their current biomass production.
Comment from Peter Emery, Production Director of Drax Power Limited
"We regret that we have decided to cancel the development of a dedicated biomass power plant at Drax Power Station, although we are still exploring options at the Port of Immingham site.
"Our decision to invest £50m this year in our existing biomass co-firing facility at Drax means there will be no loss of increased renewable power generation for Yorkshire.
"Increasing our renewable capability to 20% of the station's output will match exactly the additional power that would have come from the dedicated biomass plant.
"We anticipate that construction work required on site will lead to hundreds of jobs with significant employment also created indirectly in the biomass supply chain, for example in local farming and growing, port and rail facilities.
"Our focus remains on biomass and we are confident that we have the technical capability to transform Drax into a predominantly biomass fuelled generator.
"To achieve this will require significant investment and that decision will be taken once we have clarity and certainty over the future support levels, which we understand the Government aims to announce in spring and legislate for in summer."
