IDEA/ARRA Grant Funding"
Independence Behavioral Coaching is currently providing services to several districts in the Phoenix Metro area through IDEA/ARRA grant funding. All schools have access to this funding. Let's take a closer look?
What is IDEA/ARRA grant funding?
Information provided by the US Department of Education.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) provides approximately $100 billion for education, creating a historic opportunity to save hundreds of thousands of jobs, support states and school districts, and advance reforms and improvements that will create long-lasting results for our students and our nation including early learning, K-12, and post-secondary education.
How does this apply to school's accessing funding for behavioral coaching services?
ARRA (Public Law 111-5) appropriates significant new funding for programs under Parts B of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Part B of the IDEA provides funds to state educational agencies, like the Arizona Department of Education and through them to local educational agencies (local school districts) to help them ensure that children with disabilities, including children aged three through five, have access to a free appropriate public education to meet each child's unique needs and prepare each child for further education, employment, and independent living.
Schools have additional funding for outside behavioral support services for children that meet the requirements for special education.
In addition, local school districts can use up to 15 percent of the total of the school's regular andARRA Part B Grants to States and Preschool Grants awards to implement coordination of early intervention services to students in kindergarten through grade 12 who have not been identified as needing special education and related services, but who need additional academic and behavioral support to succeed in a general education environment.
Local school districts utilizing IDEA funding must use any funds that otherwise would have been used for special education and related services to support activities that are authorized under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965. One allowable use of those state and local funds would be to provide early intervening services to children at risk of school failure without additional support.
Where do you start?
Talk to your school about special education funding for behavioral support services. Your school can contact the purchasing department at your district to access the funds and start the application process to access those funds.
If your school district has questions and/or would like to speak to another district represenative that is currently using these funds to pay for our behavioral coaching services, call us at 480.478.0178 or email us by clicking HERE.

Friday, November 11, 2011
The last week has been pretty tough. I had left the girlfriend about a year ago to go to SF, and only after asking what happened while i was gone, did i find out that she went on some dates. This shouldn't surprise me, the first time i left to enter homelessness she ended up borking her ex. It's really kind of weird to be honest, to think that giving sex will result in what she wants ultimately, to not be alone.
So after finding out she dated while i was in SF, supposedly only kissing one of her dates, i fell into this state of depression. It was just a frank appraisal that i really would prefer a fortress of solitude than what appeared to be a relationship based on something that isn't candid. This in and of itself would likely be sufficient, especially if the kali yuga does indeed mean that true friendship is nigh impossible to acquire. I should probably state the simple truth that the girlfriend has put up with quite a bit, and i'm reminded of my own past relationships in which i paid the food and rent and exchanged this for "companionship", which, was sex in large part. When i look back i find it difficult to comprehend why i was with some of the people i was with, even now, the girlfriend and i don't have much in common. She isn't athletic, which is what i think i would prefer, like most previous relationships, finding common ground is difficult, the only saving grace being the pushing, from either herself or myself, to get the other to do things they like. In the past for me it was video games, but now it's exercise and meditation.
So, i'm not sure. Aside from the absolutely obvious, that a pretty much useless, menial job will be necessary as a result of the money reality, there is still a large part of me that really wishes to abandon the whole thing (i.e. life itself or the world), but without the resources to do so. I suspect this is probably how a large portion of the population feels in relationships that aren't balanced. I'm quite certain that i wasn't "charming" enough in previous relationships to live out of a cardboard box with, and now is no exception (especially since i wouldn't want to live in a cardboard box even alone). Solitude appears to be calling me, but i wonder if it's just another case of the grass being greener. When I spend time outside, alone, there are three things that i worry about, body position, temperature, and food. Of course the latter 2 are problems even inside a dwelling, but it is nice to only be aware of the body and how it is feeling in the present moment.
There is a palm tree out front that i have been sitting under, and i suspect i will return to it at some point. Perhaps i should strive to make this my bodhi tree, unfortunately, saying it and doing it are two absolutely different things.
During may state of sadness, i didn't feel like eating or drinking anything. I still exerted myself and rode 20mi (round trip) to occupy la to see about donating some "head warmers" i had. The total amount of time without fluid was 9 hours. It was pretty miserable. This was longer than the last time, when i went 8 hours. It's not that i feel all that accomplished by it, however, it is an investigation of the 4 noble truths that i guess has to be done. If in fact the cause of dukkha (disharmony/suffering/pain) is tanha (thirst/grasping/craving), then it should be a good test for the meditation practice. I probably shouldn't even be testing the meditation practice, since i don't really do enough of it...i mean, it's not a consistent 2 hours a day or 4 hours a day that the monks do. Really, it seems i probably should let go more. There is kind of this comfort in letting the mind and body do their thing. It already breathes on its own, what else could it do without my intruding?
The really strange thing about the trust "problem", is that if she is telling me the truth, then i should accept it as a token of trust and be contented in that. However, there is something that is bothering me. I'm not entirely sure what it is. It may be that she realizes my options are limited, as i've stated as such, and this being the case would rather kind of have this power over me, since she feels that i have too much over her. Needless to say, i should have a solid escape option of solitude should things turn out to be mostly lies.

Columbia: Many hours of unreleased Miles from this period exist. Can we get more?
The past remixed is you remixed. Hearing
it done can make you feel strong and absolved of your history, but also insubstantial, impermanent. So how do you feel when you hand your own precious art over to the unclean consoles of infidels?
Screenwriters get a bellyful of this - maybe Ryuichi Sakamoto does too, considering the soundtracks (Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence; The Sheltering Sky; etc.) he's made. A techno-pop pioneer in the '70s with the Yellow Magic Orchestra, Sakamoto recently took to straight orchestral music with the "Grief"/"Anger"/"Prayer"/ "Salvation" cycle Untitled 01 (on the Sony Classical CD Discord). And then he did a highly unusual thing: He had it "remixed."
The music on Anger/Grief - The Remixes is "remixed" Sakamoto only in the sense that moussaka is "remixed" lamb. Sakamoto's own Web site describes the "rearrangements" he personally requested as "strange and brutal." They're also a big improvement.
Possibly, Sakamoto suspects that his original Untitled 01 is not all it could be - it's a soundtrack without a movie (though the CD does contain a multimedia ROM selection). "Grief" embodies a kind of Winona-Ryder-trying-to-be-dark-again quality. "Anger" should feature Yul Brynner. On "Prayer," Merchant-Ivory goes Gregorian. And "Salvation" features the likes of Laurie Anderson and Patti Smith babbling their observations - almost inaudibly, which perhaps Sakamoto meant as a statement.
The remixes trash all that. Amon Tobin's "Grief" remix twists with a deep synth groan before its busy drum machines batter against both the rhythm and the concept of the original strings. The other four tracks remix "Anger," which is Untitled 01's best movement, but that doesn't earn Sakamoto any reverence. You can hardly find him in Rare Force's stab, which launches with drums worthy of "Walk This Way" and hammers coarse synth on the two-beat. Talvin Singh is the trippiest, using percussion loops and mutated vocal samples to establish his countermood, which, like Rare Force's, screams "Meth" more than "Anger." Chocolate Weasel's mix is the least successful, grudgingly retaining the original's structure, emphasizing its cinematic stings, simply grafting some hip-hop beats on top. And Fernando Aponte's "edit" (the closest thing to a remix here) dips the volume of the strings, dramatically displaying how effective "Anger" could have been if it weren't so damn literal.
This isn't remixing, it's gang rape. And Sakamoto - who has worked with Laswell, by the way - brought the Vaseline, transforming a wimpy piece of dilettante fodder into harsh, bristling electricity. "Is this the true Sakamoto?" you wonder. His name's on it, bubba, just like Warhol's. That's about as true as it gets.

Kate Moss has puppy woes
04 Jun in models
Supermodel Kate Moss has acquired a new Staffordshire Cross puppy and he is wrecking havoc in her luxury home in London. The puppy named, "Archie," is behaving in a typical "puppy" fashion. He´s hell-bent on destroying everything in his path. Nothing it seems is safe from his "search and destroy" mission. So far, he has destroyed new carpets, furniture and one of Kate´s favourite fluffy cream rugs by urinating where he shouldn´t.
Kate is losing sleep and pulling her hair out from his antics. In the meantime she is seeking help from a professional dog trainer hoping to get Archie under control.
Kate and her guitarist hubby, Jamie Hince bought the puppy so that Kate could have a new start. But things have turned sour. A source added, "Poor Kate is pulling her hair out. She loves Archie but she´s had to have everything cleaned since he arrived. She is desperate for the trainer to get him under control."
Can the trainer teach Archie some much-needed dog manners?
Looks like this is one celebrity puppy that is not going to be spoilt and pampered.
We can only hope.
A quote from Rita Rudner seems to fit this scenario well. "My husband and I are either going to buy a dog or have a child. We can´t decide whether to ruin our carpets or ruin our lives."

Graduation of MBA Students in International Hospital and Healthcare Management
Frankfurt am Main.
18 months after starting their programme, 13 students of the MBA in International Hospital and Healthcare Management graduated in May 2011. The graduation ceremony took place in the Römer town hall building in Frankfurt.
The students from Egypt, Germany, India, Pakistan, Malawi, Nigeria and Saudi Arabia were greeted by Elisabeth Haindl, Member of the Frankfurt City Council: "It is a great honour to celebrate with such an illustrious group of people."
Professor Erich Barthel, Head of the Management Department of Frankfurt School and also lecturer in the programme, welcomed the students in the name of Frankfurt School. In his laudatio, Jürgen Hahn, Chief Marketing Officer Hitachi Medical Systems Europe, pointed out that the graduates would be high in demand with hospitals and healthcare suppliers. The unique combination of medical and business knowledge skills was not found very often, he pointed out, especially when the training was done in such an international way.
Professor Rainer Sibbel, the Academic Head of the programme, as well as Professor Denis Chenevert of the collaboration partner HEC Montreal gave their farewell speeches. The latter gave a piece of advice to the students: "The difference between a good and a bad manager is courage, so be brave!"
The highlight of the event was the awarding ceremony of the MBA graduation certificate. Prof. Dr. Angelika Eggert received an award for being the best student of the programme and excelling in her studies. She summarized the students' experiences and impressions across the ten learning modules. While the internationality of the student body was the greatest challenge it was also the best feature of the programme, she explained. A representative of the alumni association of Frankfurt School reminded the graduates to stay part of the FS family and brought along with him the typical Frankfurt apple wine jugs, called "Bembel", as gifts for the MBA graduates.
Graduation ended with a reception at the restaurant Schwarzer Stern, where professors, graduates and their family and friends celebrated together.

Maybe I Won't
Kytte rented May last weekend, a horror movie I heard about a while ago that dropped of my radar, and I was reminded of on a recent trip to Best Buy. I thought about buying it blind, but decided not to, so when Kytte loaned me her rental, I thought, "hey, great, now I don't have to rent it either!" I'm goddamn glad I didn't buy it or rent it.
May starts out by ruining the film's entire premise, which is really all it had going for it. The opening credits are done over scenes of clothes being cut and stitched, before cutting to a scene in the title character's patch, where in rapid succession we learn about her lazy eye, her rejection by the other kids because she wears a pirate-like eye patch, and her overly-protective-yet-obsessive mother's attempts to help May compensate by introducing her to the world of making dolls. Then, the film's "horror element" is blown nary four minutes into the movie, when May's mother tells her that "if you can't get a friend, make one."
And that's basically it: May sees perfect parts of people, but she can't see perfect people, so she decides to make a perfect person by cutting people up and sewing herself a new doll-person. People have compared that to Frankenstein, but it's not even in the same ballpark: the Doctor's motivations for creating his monster ran much deeper than an underdeveloped, overly-sensitive goth's lack of social adjustment. Don't worry, I didn't ruin anything for you that wouldn't have been spoiled either on the box cover or in the first five minutes of the film.
My problems with this movie (and I've obviously got them) is that it spent zero time developing Young May as a character. None. We are treated to one scene where kids reject her, one scene where her mother tries to help her and most likely passes along some of her own mental quirks. And that's it. We're supposed to accept, from this tiny amount of film, that May is a seriously maladjusted individual, and that these are all logical reasons for her to cut herself with a scalpal and sew pieces of corpses together to make a new person. Didn't work, not for a second. Maybe it's because I've seen too many people in the world who have a lot worse problems than an overbearing mother and a small personal handicap, and not a single one of them grew up to be a murderer. That may be it in a nutshell (pardon the pun): this film had zero verisimilitude. Armageddon had a more believable premise.
Which only goes to show me that indie film does not always equal good film. May was far, far worse than other indie horror flicks that have come along recently - two that come to mind are Cabin Fever and Frailty. The first nailed you with some of the same gross-out tricks that May pulls, but managed to tell it in a way that didn't lose the viewer. The later is practically the form of psychological horror; while there's very little actual blood and violence, it is disturbing on a far deeper level than May, which only leaves you wondering why her parents didn't put her in counselling a little sooner, especially her father who, for the two seconds we see him on film, seems normal.
Gosh, I'm being awfully harsh. Then again, I just wasted a lot of my time.

If you wanna contact him on Twitter thing this morning all right we -- -- so we can talk about that just because Brian and our talk about those we'll start there.
JPMorgan Chase and -- going to be some sort of congressional investigation into the two billion dollars they lost I just point out.
There was a truckload of money that was invested right this is what one -- of the truckload of money.
There was not anything illegal that has been brought about.
He'll lose it in fact if you don't take risk I say this about you -- you like not to get lucky but you were making an interesting comment maybe the president.
Just doesn't get.
Well let's say the president -- get it unless I got my camera well we'll know what I said was with that.
-- obviously when a political season right -- and there is a lot of fear that we have something similar to what occurred gulf war.
What the Wall Street meltdown and so.
It's lot of -- on that and so what.
I think there's a jump to -- being overly -- I think this old book I think it's more overly cautious -- -- -- and I think we need to be clear what happened I mean that the JPMorgan.
Was hedging a hedge.
Which is basically taking risk isn't what they do.
Well no you know typically if you if you make certain investments you might -- that investment.
To make sure that -- -- you know -- Subject to the markets.
In terms of what that means for your for your mark to Mark Russell it's kind of complicate -- -- -- -- subtle one up over complicate the language but a -- of the day.
If that issue is with concerned about the taxpayer hadn't stepped -- and then -- to separate.
Commercial banks from investment banks but it always stick okay if the issue is what otherwise I don't -- -- over regulate investment banks.
Why did you realize your Democrats can I was like yeah now -- -- -- you know I mean for you made it sound like you the president was just maybe a little out of touch on this issue you're still doing that may be spinning it a little bit differently now.
But -- did you hear what you just -- At -- did you know Harris I've had bad weeks two -- never lost two billion dollars.
That even shoe shopping.
-- but it's sitting the president and I say.
Is that you know he said that there should be more regulation on Wall Street and I think that's going to be interesting because last -- -- he ran for the president.
Wall Street really supported him -- -- you've seen him really reaching out into that the gay community really reach out to Hollywood community.
To get some of those big campaign dollars that Wall Street had -- last time.
That I just don't think they'll be there -- -- stats.
Interest as well that's an exaggeration some of that money is there any hurry come and then that's part of reason why at least we principle parts of the table.
We have raised significantly more than -- the Republicans I think the issue is is that it's it's it's it's a tough road.
In terms of how you do -- Wall Street.
And I think at the end of the day you know many of us and if the president and having problems on Wall Street while I was -- -- -- Dodd-Frank didn't go far enough and if and and if you look at the situation.
We should have either decided to to separate commercial rest of -- -- since they commercial banks can't do certain things.
Or just make sure that there's certain crimes which by the way is the case now what that prevents them -- them.
Going on -- I -- the -- out front what they're trying to prevent violence -- anything illegal bad JPMorgan's case that.
Again I understand hedging and you know we don't want to be our problem of them don't know the really fun any American don't know I don't -- -- -- whatever apathetic and -- that.
I would agree I think you know you're hearing more talks of regulation and I don't think that makes anybody on Wall Street happy or comfortable that that's turning into the main talking point.
The last few days what candidate talking point being.
While I think if you're Wall Street in -- looking at the two candidates and you have one candidate.
Obamas seem more regulation you have another candidate Mitt Romney who's been in this business community he's talking about invest in the United States increasing energy production I think -- -- Wall Street.
That's a candidate that you're gonna -- all right so this he get the Wall Street money.
Colleges and Iran to get the well.
I don't think he's got to get -- they're not going to be like eighteen year old voters who sit home because I didn't feel motivated.
Right meanwhile he's gonna vote they're gonna have a horses -- of who gets there on I think that's going to Mitt Romney I think you'll see Wall Street -- really coalesce around.

Bernard Barr remembers the time, two decades ago, when he and colleagues at a pawnshop at Morganton and Reilly roads would go out back and do some shooting.
The shop was less than 100 yards from a supermarket, he told an Observer reporter, but all the shooters drew was a few people who enjoyed watching.
Times sure have changed. Now, even a rural firearms-training center on 1,000 buffering acres draws protests and lawsuits. Shooting enthusiasts and professionals who must regularly train on firing ranges are beginning to worry that their outdoor shooting days in Cumberland County may be coming to an end.
A ruckus over that 1,000-acre facility is at the core of it. The TigerSwan training center in Cedar Creek was founded three years ago as a for-profit range. The county initially gave it a permit as a school. That drew a suit from neighbors, who won - even though TigerSwan does indeed teach advanced marksmanship and weapons use. The company now has a permit as an outdoor-recreation business. The neighbors are suing again.
Given the furor over TigerSwan, and the likelihood of more such ventures in the future, county officials began looking into what has been mostly a void of specific zoning and safety regulations for ranges.
It's surprising, really, that this wasn't an issue dealt with long ago, given our proximity to Fort Bragg and our large population of military retirees who are shooting enthusiasts. As we feel the ground and walls shake this week from the Marines in artillery training at Fort Bragg, it's hard to forget shooting of various sorts is thoroughly intertwined with living here.
And yet, with the county's population now topping 300,000, suitable sites for ranges are disappearing as housing subdivisions sprout. County planners are drafting regulations for ranges, and at one point they included a requirement for a minimum of 500 acres. Although that's been dropped, operators of some smaller ranges are still worried that if they want to upgrade their facilities, they may be forced out of existence because they can't meet the county's new rules.
All ranges do need to be safe. But let's make sure too that our kids have a place to learn to shoot and adults have a place to keep their shooting skills sharp. That is completely consistent with this county's heritage. Zoning should keep it that way and not push ranges out of existence in Cumberland County.

- Holocaust: Survivors - 2,116 words
... e Holocaust forever changed the way the Jewish people view the world and themselves. The world's biggest desolation that caused the murders of millions of Jewish people took place during WWII. The Holocaust orchestrated by the Nazi Empire destroyed millions of lives and created questions about humanity that may never be answered. Many psychological effects caused by the Holocaust forever changed the way the Jewish people view the world and themselves. The Jewish people have been scarred for generations and may never be able to once again associate with the rest of the free world. Further, these scars have now become the looking glass through which the survivors and their children view th ...

Jews In Argentina The Jewish Community of Argentina Argentina is the second largest nation in Lain America and boasts the largest Jewish community in the region (200,000 of its 35 million people). From an open door policy of immigration to the harboring of Nazi war criminals, Argentina's Jews have faced period of peaceful coexistence and periods of intense anti-Semitism. Argentina's Jews have numerous Jewish community organizations. The DIAI (Delegacion de Asociaciones Israelitas Argentinas) was founded in 1939 as the political arm of the Jewish community. The DIAI protects Jewish rights and represents the community in the government. Another organization, the AMIA, an Ashkenazic mutual-aid ...

In 1992, a reporter from the local Clarin newspaper photographed the Dutchman at his home in suburban Buenos Aires. Anti-Semitic Activities Neo-Nazi individuals and groups continued to operate openly in Argentina, supported by a wide circle of sympathizers. The well-known neo-Nazi Alejandro Biondini, who has been active since the 1980s, leads one of the two main nationalistic right-wing parties, Partido Nuevo Triunfo (New Triumph Party -- PNT).

Nazi War Criminals Still Out There Nazi War Criminals Still Out There As you walk by and look at hundreds of people everyday, just think, one of these people could have helped Hitler's Nazi Party. One of them could have been in charge of sentencing thousands of Jew's to death each day. These heartless terrible people could be walking around in disguise. They could even be living next door. These people are the thousands of Nazi war criminals that escaped from Germany, dodging being prosecuted for their crimes. Lot's have been caught, but there still many remain.

Schwarzenegger Arnold Schwarzennegger was born on July 30, 1947 in a little town called Graz, in the Styria province, of Austria. During his early childhood in Graz, Austria, Schwarzenegger was encouraged by his father to become involved in athletics. Schwarzenegger means black plowman in Deutsch. At age 15 he discovered weightlifting, which led to the title of Mr. Universe at age 20, followed by an unprecedented 13-world bodybuilding titles. His motion picture career began in 1977 with his role in the critically acclaimed Pumping Iron, a feature-length documentary about the Mr. Universe competition, which revealed his engaging natural presence before the camera.

Over at the Spectator Coffee House blog Fraser Nelson has some typically cogent observations on Brown's likely future course. Perhaps most interesting, however, are his thoughts on the Parliamentary Labour Party. He argues that 'the Blairites have lost the argument with the party', with the result that 'we can now see orphaned Blairites and a resurgent Old Labour arguing over future direction.'
If the old Labour guard truly is in the ascendancy, then the key question surely is whether Brown has the ability – or indeed the inclination – to re-assert the importance of Blairite market reforms? Given his own proclivity for centralizing, as well as his embattled position this seems highly doubtful: but does this represent the death-knell of the New Labour project? Or merely a dormant phase prior to a re-awakening under a 'post-Blairite' (read Miliband) leadership?

Do you ever get an urge to really clean your house? I don't mean just your usual dusting and vacuuming, but a REALLY good cleaning? I officially declare this past weekend Spring Cleaning Weekend. That's what went down in this house. We dusted everything, scrubbed the kitchen and bathrooms. I even cleaned all of the baseboards. Holy dust, Batman! I washed all the rugs and blankets. Now I just have to re-organize our pantry and I think I will feel complete.
I also spent a good part of Friday and Saturday night going through the monstrous stack of cooking magazines I have collected over the last few years. Seriously, I had magazines going back to 2008. I went through each one and pulled out all of the recipes I wanted. Then I got a binder and page protectors and got to work on making my cooking magazine cookbook. The old magazines get to be hauled down to the recycle bin by my poor husband. Hope he doesn't break his back carrying them down the stairs.
With all the cleaning happening, I wasn't feeling up to making a big dinner. A slow cooker meal was definitely in order. We love Mexican food in this house. We could probably eat it everyday and be really happy. Instead of our usual chicken or beef tacos, I opted for pork this time around. This was a great meal to eat after all the cleaning!
- 2 lbs. boneless pork shoulder
- 1/4 cup lime juice (about 2 limes)
- 1 tbs. chili powder
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. cumin
- 1/2 tsp. oregano
- 2 cups beer (pale ale, I used Corona; or 2 cups chicken broth)
- tortillas
- Cheese
- Sour Cream
- Avocado
- Black Beans
- Tomatoes
- Add the pork shoulder to a slow cooker. In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, chili powder, salt, garlic, cumin, and oregano. Pour the spice mixture over the pork. Add the beer to the slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on low for 7 hours.
- When the pork is done, remove the meat from the slow cooker onto a cutting board or dish and shred with a fork. Add the meat back into the slow cooker to soak up all of the juice. Serve in warmed tortillas with desired taco toppings.

CORPUS CHRISTI -- Today, letter carriers with the United States Post Office in Corpus Christi took part in what's called a National Day of Action.
They held a rally to bring attention to the mass layoffs that'll happen if Saturday mail delivery is dropped.
Around 200 people stood outside Lamar Park Post office to protest.
The reason...they say changing six day mail delivery to five days could put 23,000 people out of work.
The people at the rally especially wanted the United State's congress to take notice.
Postal workers say congressional members could reverse a decision to cut service made by the Post-Master General.
Juan Munoz with the National Association of Letter Carriers said, "We're here rallying to promote six day delivery so congress can keep six day delivery."
Postal worker Carlos Rodriguez, Jr. said, "We're out here to support the growth of the postal service, not destroy it."
If Saturday mail services are cut it could affect 50-70 local post office workers.
But, the United States Postal Service says the cuts are necessary to help strengthen their finances and it would save up to $2 billion a year.
As of right now, Saturday mail delivery would end in August, but package delivery service will still be available.

The mixture of polished and frosted glass creates a sleek and attractive design to any room. The combination of the blend of polished and frosted glass in red creates a beautiful modern and contemporary backdrop. The mesh backing not only simplifies installation, it also allows the tiles to be separated which adds to their design flexibility.
- Glass Tile -
Our designers have carefully chosen the suggested grout color as the perfect complement to this tile.
Tile must be installed over a suitable substrate to insure a proper installation. Glass tile should be installed over a clean, sound, and flat surface, free of contaminates including curing compounds. Substrate should be free of cracks. If used in a wet area you must waterproof. See manufacturer's recommendation on a membrane for crack and water protection that is compatible with the setting material you are using. Glass is reflective therefore any inconsistencies in the substrate will result in a poor installation. For pools and fountains we recommend installing a mortar bed according to TCA P601-98. EXPANSION AND CONTROL JOINTS PER TCA EJ171-05 Expansion joints should be installed at all "changes in plane" in the tile work and where tile abuts restraining surfaces, therefore silicone caulking sealant must be installed in all corner joints in place of grout.
The recommended cutting method is to use a wet saw with a diamond blade that is specifically for cutting glass. Edges can be sanded smooth after cutting.

Why the heck is Zues a character? Is he a PS Allstar???
Zeus looks cool, actually.
So, is this it for DLC now, since the uppers dropped them?
I kind of like Playstation-All stars... but what the... F....
Zeus is pretty badass and Isaac looks cool by default.
I'm loving the diversity of the comments on this article... moan moan who's this Zeus guy moan bitch moan.
That version of Zeus is a Playstation character. It pushes the boat on the aspect that now we have two InFamous characters and two God of War characters there could be two characters of other already represented franchises á la Snake. You know, the guy you all keep clamoring for?
I know you want certain characters over these guys, but for the love of God do you all need to post the same crap?
It makes sense when you think about it.
God of War is the Playstation Flagship Title (everywhere but Japan) so through sheer popularity power alone it was bound to get a second character and Zeus was the antagonist (He and Kratos are both villains technically) so he's the most likely. If an EA character was to be in the game Isaac was the man. Have you seen how much EA has been milking the Dead Space cow?
That said I will buy this JUST for Isaac's level 3 alone. Asteroids rock! *rimshot*
Another GoW character? That's the best they could get? Well, licenses can be problematic to obtain, so I'm sure they went with Zeus due to already have the God of War license.
Dead Space? Ok, look... I have nothing against Isaac Clarke, but Dead Space isn't a PS3-exclusive game. His inclusion is as questionable as Big Daddy.
What...? Resistance, Folklore, Drakkan, Lair, Arc the Lad, Wild Arms, Sorcery, Legend of Legaia, Legends of Dragoon, Everquest, Rogue Galaxy and Ico weren't good enough?
I'll gladly get these characters, especially if they're free for the first 3 weeks like Kat and Emmett, but I just wish that they went with other Sony-exclusive 1st-party IPs instead o getting a returning on and a multiplatform 3rd-party one.
No price announcement means these won't be free the first 2 weeks, but will cost $5.00 a pop.
I am not trying to hate on the game, but I dont really like the characters they picked to be in this game too many new ps characters and muilt plat characters, I dont play this game but just wish it had a better selection, hardly anyone from the ps1/2 era
Lol at Zeus being inducted into Playstations Hall of Fame so quickly, good job thunder god
Honestly tho, watchin Zeus in action makes me wanna start playin this game again
I foretell the rematch between the vengeful Spartan n the god of thunder is imminent through countless lobbies
Thats... pretty surprising o.o although i have a feeling that one of issac's supers is gonna have to be that stomp and necromorphs!
I'd like to know who on this planet even liked Zeus in GoW to begin with, to warrant him being in this game.
He wasn't even remotely likable in his respective games (neither was Kratos by the end of GoW3, but people tend to like stupid characters even after they've stopped being likable...), let alone to warrant having a large enough fanbase to be in this.
Issac Clarke is a good choice, but Zeus could have easily been someone else that would be better.
Like.... I'd honestly like it if they had Lightning, Altair/Ezio, or even someone from Platinum Games (Sam from Vanquish, for example).
Issac I don't mind I actually saw him coming. Zeus however.... I don't mind...but why? Issac is an EA character like Lara Croft so maybe this a good sign that after the new Tomb Raider comes out that we may get to see Lara. Remember that Crash and Spyro are both owned by Activision who are honestly giant b!tches to work with in terms of licensing so that's why I don't expect to see them anytime soon. Some Final Fantasy characters would be nice like oh I don't know CLOUD!!!! Hell I will even take Lightning if it means getting more ladies in the game.
Where the hell are the Final Fantasy characters? Where's Snake? Where's Dante (not Donte)? Where's Wander and Ico? While these characters are cool I don't really see them as "All-star" quality.
I really think that the biggest factor for the choice of fighting game characters is marketing. Zeus since Acension is coming out soon, and EA has been milking the Dead Space franchise. Just look at the Marvel cast and you'll see the same things. Random characters (that I've never heard of before UMvC) like Nova and Iron Fist came up in the new Spiderman cartoon series. And you can also see the focus on Avengers due to the movies.
That being said, I really like the choice of Zeus and Isaac. Zeus makes sense as it is a staple and they needed more God of War reps. And since when did people complain about third party support? The more the merrier imo. I understand that people want some older characters that makes you the Playstation (Crash, Spyro, ect.) but all those characters aren't in Sony's hand and need cooperation from third parties.
I'm sorry PSASBR. I like you, but I must ask: Really? You have yet to put in any character from your vast JRPG line up, the ones you own actually. Plus, You have Nippon Ichi, a huge support of you, celebrating their 20th and disgaea's 10th aniversery, and you don't put in a Disgaea character?
Who do you put in? Zeus and Issac. Zeus... just no. We don't need more characters from the same franchise when you have more franchises to pick from. Issac is a 3rd party character, honestly put in because EA wanted him in. Whatever, fine.
Zeus should have been Etna or Laharl from Disgaea, or pick someone from your Japanese brands. You have so many to pick from sony, so why the hell did you pick Zeus?!
The original reason I (and a A LOT of people) bought a ps3: Resistance!
No Nathan Hale or Chimera or even Capelli(or what ever his name was from the crappy 3rd game).
The line up in this game just make no sense.
Issac is a great choice! Now they have the survival horror genre covered. Next we need someone to represent RPG's *cough*Dart & Cloud*cough*. Zues is a total WTF character. If you going to put a mythological character in always pick Odin...or Magickarp. ^_^
I refuse to pay for Zeus DLC. Im too afraid that if i buy him we'll get more GoW or Random characters like Frankenstien or Wolfman....unless it's Victor/J.Talbain, that would actually be awesome.
I really like Issac being in the game though. It gives me hope for a Silent hill character like Pyramid Head. Not much hope, but a golden shiny wire of hope. :P
I don't cate what all of you guys hating have to say but Issac is someone I've been hoping for since Big Daddy's announcement. Welcome to thr fave five, Issac. See you later, Evil Cole.
People are complaining about Isaac being on multi-platforms. Isn't Big Daddy (Bioshock) on Xbox 360 as well as PS3? Not so much the PS brand as much as it is how popular the characters are. Isaac is a very popular character. Zeus on the other hand isn't even playable in God of War. How is he an All-Star?
I loved Unfinished Swan, but the new stage is kinda meh.
I hope they're free because I want to get them. If My PS3 didn't kick the bucket, I would be doing playthroughs of them.
I don't really understand Isaac Clarke in PSA because Dead Space series isn't exclusive title to the PS3 and the last I heard the Dead Space series sold more copies on the 360.
Zeus looks alright. Isaac... I'm torn. I absolutely hate giving EA any of my money, and I don't know what portion of the price will go towards them.
@52: They did. There's now an item drop that turns people to stone for a one-hit kill without a super.
Oh wait, you were just being rhetorical.
Glad to se Isaac and finally another villan on the roster, Zeus looks really strong with that 80 AP from 2 hits.
I don't understand the complains here, Isaac being a 3rd party character is cool, DS had some deals on the PS3, free weapons packs, free DS Extraction included on DS2, actually, the PS3 was the only console to have all Dead Space games: 1,2,3 Extraction(wii port)and the comic thing.
Zeus, well he's the main villian in GoW, has been in more games than most of the roster.
and for those kicking the dead horse: Crash/Spyro depend on Activision, Lara/FF rep on Crystal dynamics and Squarenix, so far they don't care for this game, want those characters? go to their sites and ask them.
Interested in the new additions. A little less than 3 weeks to go.
@54: People complain because they're not characters from yesteryear. I mean, as much as I'd love to take control of Alucard or Razputin (Psychonauts anyone?), I think that ship sailed once Santa Monica took over.
Everyone asking for Lightning makes me want to find a house on Mars. That is a HORRIBLE idea; FF13/2 ruined FF! If any FF characters should make an appearance it should be either Cloud, Sephiroth (<-- makes the most sense)or Squall. As for the two new guys, I welcome them. No hate, no love; I'll judge once I get to try them, but I agree with everyone saying Zeus is a 100% surprise and (IMO) 99% undeserving, but at least he showcases some unique stuff, although Issac does as well.
If Superbot/Sony were smart, these characters will be free for the first week or something, but after seeing the PS4 conference, I guess we'll be ponying up some cash just to turn our PS3s on within the next month.
You know. When I think about the PlayStation... I think about Zeus... I mean, even the PlayStation console looks sort of like Zeus...amirite guyz?
I just don't have it in me to feel good about these characters in this game.
Am I the only one who is happy that there is a couple pieces of content being added to the game regardless of who they are?
You're not the only one. Lots of bellyaching for a franchise that people supposedly don't like in this topic.
I despise Skullgirls and think Marvel is for ADHD monsters (good for them if they enjoy it), but I don't go in their topics and spew that nonsense.
Yay an update to the game! Isaac awesome he's nice! Whut.... Zeus? WTF!!! WHO WOULD WANT THIS?! HE IS NOT AN ALL STAR!!! Damn you Superbot, thank God this is the last you'll do with the game... I blame SETH!!! All the Capcom thing bout ignoring fans was brought up with him...
I like this game. I really do. I just find their choices questionable.
That being said, after watching the video I REALLY liked how Zeus played. They really put a lot of effort into him, so I think he will be a good addition for his playstyle... but I still would have rather have a Disgaea character.
I know FF, Spyro, Crash, Abe, and Lara are all not happening. I am not asking for them. I am Asking for a Disgaea character, or a Neptunia character, or a character from the many exclusive JRPG's Sony has. Where is the reps for that?!
Hmm, didn't someone see that Zeus and Issac were in the game code from the past patch? Who else did they see?
Well at least Zeus making it in rings the possibility that we can have more than one playable character per franchise not counting the Coles, so in which case Snake once again has a chance.
@ Moaners
adding onto #65, you can just not comment, that would be appreciated, turn on your filter and stop bothering people for no reason, aside from you having absolutely nothing better to do than bash video games. Get a girlfriend or something.
@ PSAS lovers
I don't see any issue with either of these, finally BD will not be alone and finally another decent mid range guy who can actually combo. Isaac is absolutely joining my Jak and Drake as the only 999's in my roster.
I'm gonna guess that they wouldn't put Snake in, but would put Big Boss instead.
@26 StFu, man! plz! that is one of the single stupidest things you can say. if ppl WANT Snake in PSAS, let them WANT Snake in PSAS. telling them to play a completely different game on a completely different console (that they might not even OWN) is dumb AF. you must of been one of those snobs telling ppl "if you wanna play Megaman (IN UMVC3) so bad, go play MVC1/2" stfu -_- lol yes i am mad! & no, im not a Snake fanboy (like Raiden) or MM fanboy (i like Zero), i just hate it when ppl say stuff like that. it makes no sense! they just want their fav character, dude! let em dream!
@67 Were always going to get characters that we like or hate. Like not a fan of GoW, Killzone, Bioshock etc. I will say one thing an RPG character will happen, but were going to have to wait longer or who knows what day will happen. It'll be one of thoes surprises, like Heihachi & Toro (to me) and thoes recent characters were looking at right now, who knows will not only see a Disgaea but maybe a character from Persona and a Final Fantasy character is not out the count yet all it takes is square enix yes.
@52 The Super Kill is not a bug, its a gameplay element. The Super Kill is fine the way it is, this feature in Playstation Allstars is pure defense and strategy even involves keeping your eye on your opponent.
@12 When comes to Abe, things between the PSAS group & the Oddworlds team wasn't working out too well. Heck theres no limit when comes to characters. Maybe if Playstation Allstars get a sequel, maybe Abe might get his chances who knows.
@70 When comes to Snake, Kojima doesn't like the idea for Snake & Raiden fighting each other Kojima looks at Snake & Raiden as teammates. Plus the relations with Kojima was hurt because Raiden got leaked, even if it was Big Boss.
@74 Our FGC community will be full of crybaby trolls, with blind hate because the internet people trolls exist. Who knows the FGC was doomed from the start, heck I wish I can solves the problem with the FGC in general.
Good stuff with Zeus, I am glad they chose an out and out villian(F*** gow3's ending for saying it was the evils of pandora's box) for once instead of a protaganist(every playable character of a game series) or sysmpatheic character(Big daddy and Radec)
This is f***ing creepy. I was actually thinking about dead Space this morning and wondering how Isaac would make a playable character in this game and then THIS F***KING ARTICLE POPS UP.
I'm scared guys.
Who cares which characters are chosen? More characters is something awesome, and I don't give a damn if they add Peter Griffin and Butters Stotch next, I'm just happy that the roster is expanding.
God they must have so much trouble getting permission to use a lot of characters that they want. Please don't blame them for picking these two characters. Licensing is a bitch.
I for one love the addition of Zeus, he should have been in the game since day 1. I don't get why people are whining about his inclusion. He's the main villain of a mash hit PS title. So we have the anti-hero Kratos and the villain Zeus. Also Zeus looks freakin' awesome.
This trend should have been apparent since the beginning, we should have been getting more than 1 character from each IP/franchise. We got Raiden, we should get one of the bosses from MGR, Mistral, Monsoon or the endboss(not Jetstream Sam). We could even get Wolf.
MvC features a lot of characters from one franchise, why can't it be the same with PSABR.
Ah yes...Zeus...the face of Playstation!
JK. But, seriously, I am pumped for these new characters! But, what has me worried is that judging by the gameplay for Zeus, he's gonna be the new Raiden: Everybody you're matched up with is gonna use him.
I agree with what you're saying, but they clearly were avoiding more than one character per franchise. To me, Zeus' inclusion is sort of bullcrap considering titles like resistance haven't gotten a character. If every other franchise were doubling down on characters, i wouldn't care, but since none of them are and Resistance is being HEAVILY used in the game, my jimmies are being rustled.
Also, I want Prophet from Crysis and Handsome Jack. I'll never get them, but I can dream.

You don't pay for tutoring unless you find a good fit!
Hello, I have been working with students privately and through the public schools since 1999. I have very high scores for reading comprehension. When asked to take tests for my teaching credential, I found this to be true. I can teach practical and easy ways to get the most out of your reading, help learn vocabulary, help with spelling, and all the different essays a student might be required to write in school or work.I am a published author, and I do occasionally get invited to universities to speak on writing, and to read my own. My love of reading and writing started early, but I have kept up with my own practice and can share all my tips with any of my students. I work on brain storming, using visual diagrams, work on close reading and what is known as distant reading. Whatever technique works best, or feels best for the student is how we begin. Learning should be fun, if not a bit challenging, and I like to keep both feelings going for optimal results. We can work on Grammar too, but what I like to do is first get the idea of where the student's level of work is now. After we ave decided exactly which troubles the student has, we begin from that point. I have 2 degrees in English, so I am well equipped to teach any level, from elementary to college.Most importantly, I want my students to reach the point where there is no more struggling or anxiety over reading and writing. When we reach that point,then the best work can be accomplished. I will teach all the different kinds and styles of essay writing, I will give tips on how to get the most out of reading, and then the student can begin practicing these styles until they are mastered. My students will then know how to write cogent essays, business and school applications, letters, and any other form of writing!
I am quite good with Grammar, having passed the WyzAnt test with 100% accuracy. I can teach what I have learned to a variety of different students.
I have been writing for a very long time now. I have published a book of poems, and have been anthologized as well. I speak at colleges on the topic of writing, and writing about direct experience to create narratives, and poems. Students say they like my sense of humor, and that I have great speaking skills.My book, Really Boomba, was published by WePress, and I had my last poem published by Fade Poetry Journal out of Nottingham UK.I am fully dedicated to my craft, and can pass...

I have 2 degrees in English and Literature. I can teach all aspects of English, from close readings to grammar and essay writing skills. I have had great success teaching writing, English grammar and gaining a better vocabulary, and look forward to helping any age group or level.
I have been reading Literature, teaching literature, understanding and enjoying English Literature and also Literature in translation.I know how to get to the main ideas and describe them. I can summarize, re-word and successfully describe any piece of literature that I have read for pleasure or for helping student's comprehension.
Working as a special day class teacher allows me to understand how to use all the equipment that many of these children need for their health. I also know how to deal with cortical blindness, severe Autism, Down syndrome, fragile x syndrome, and many different cognitive and physical impairments. I know how to use a stander, side layer, g tubes and toileting. I know how to habit train for toileting to allow the student more freedom in the day if possible. I can feed children who need assistance,... Read More
I have been speaking to students at Universities for several years on the subjects of Writing and Literature. I also was a fierce debater in High School. I also have done 1000s of small reading events throughout the Bay area for over 20 years.
I have studied Art history as a personal interest since childhood. My grandparents were collectors of Art, and had an extensive library in which to teach me all the different schools of art from ancient to current styles. I also took a course in school, but the actual art that I saw growing up around me, and in museums around the world, had a great effect on my education and knowledge.
I have been working with children with ASD since 1999. I work privately and at schools to help these children, especially the ones who have self injurious behavior. I can create what is called extinction. I also help kids with Autism understand and comprehend texts needed for school.
While I was in Boarding School I studied and excelled in classics including: Homer, all the Greek philosophers, Chaucer's work in the original Middle English, Beowulf, Greek Poetry and Latin.

PIWI is an XML/XSLT Transformation Framework written in PHP. It's basic concepts and ideas have been stolen from the great Java-Applications Apache Cocoon and Apache Forrest. Cocoon is still a great webframework, but very complex and of course in Java, which makes it not useful for people who want the power for their small project, but not the pain. Apache Forrest on the other hand is a publishing framework; powerful too but hard to install and quite complex. PIWI addresses some of the problems of both and provides web framework and publishing features. Its easy to install, to learn and to extend.
