Clara Barton and Chafee School focus on ELA pays off
MCAS scores improve
By Becky Harvey
Patriot Correspondent
OXFORD - Despite the nasty weather, the freshly plowed Oxford High School welcomed a full roll of the Oxford School Committee on Monday evening. The meeting commenced with a discussion of the school improvements at Clara Barton by Principal Stephen Baroni.
The MCAS scores have increased in English Language Arts (ELA) due to extra support, including the addition of a ".5 literacy specialist." The school has started an initiative this year, sending home MCAS packets every week. Parents have responded positively to the program. In addition to straight-out MCAS work, grade three also sends home weekly literacy packets. These efforts, along with the addition of leveled reading groups have helped to reinforce language and reading skills.
Grade two and four math MCAS scores were also targeted for improvement through additional supports this year. Students spend over an hour a day on math skills and the school is hoping to add a ".5 Math support position" next year. The third goal at Clara Barton this year is to increase parent and community connections to the students. A number of very special programs have been put in place and are helping to successfully reach the goal. Parent volunteers have made up a big part in connecting the teachers to the community.
The fourth goal of instituting use of the Johns Collins writing program, which uses writing across the curriculum, is well on its way. Teachers are feeling much more comfortable with the program due to additional professional development in the area.
The only thing the principal listed for next year's "wish list," other than the aforementioned part-time math position, is to hire an assistant principal. He did mention that the addition of a late bus for the elementary level would be helpful. This came up as a follow-up to Susan Rivelli's question as to how many students take advantage of after-school and before-school help. It should go without saying that numbers would be higher if students had a way to get home afterwards.
The Chaffee School Principal Norm Yvon, listed his goals to align the curriculum to the State frameworks with ELA as an area of concentration. They decided to focus on the ELA due to the fact that this was set as a district-wide goal this year. Staff meetings are used to help teachers reach this goal. The faculty has been given lists of vocabulary and symbols which the students are required to know in the hopes that they will use them often, creating a greater familiarity for the students. The school has implemented a treasure chest reward system for students who use the vocabulary appropriately throughout the school year.
Rock to Read is a new program where students work forty-five minutes a day, four out of six days per week, on literacy skills. The students are grouped with students at similar levels, based on the MAP testing that the school does. The goal is to have 75% or higher of the second grade students reading at or above grade level. Like the Clara Barton School, Chaffee is also using the Collins Program. Regular meetings have been held to discuss the implementation by teachers. The program has been integrated across the board, including in Art, Gym and other "specials" classes.
Chaffee is also making a point of making public outreach a priority. Food bank collections and cards to soldiers in Afghanistan during the holidays were just a few of the many things students and faculty have done to accomplish this goal. Another aspect of community outreach that has been a concentration of late, is to be sure the website stays up to date and includes all pertinent information. The last goal of the school is to help students demonstrate good character and make good choices. Chaffee Champs, a reward program that has been on-going for years, is one of a number of "caught being good" type programs the school has in place. Mighty Manners is a program that helps students behave properly while dining.
Ben Milliner, Assistant Principal of the Oxford Middle School, began by stating that the Middle School's Improvement goals for this year are basically brand new, as all the previous school improvement goals had pretty much been reached and become part of the everyday way of life at school. There are three areas included in the "lean and mean" new school improvement plan, but the newly updated plan has not been made available online as of yet.
Joanne Daly, District Curriculum Director, announced the addition of the Atlas Curriculum Mapping program. It is an online-based program that allows teachers to plan out the curriculum and coordinate with other teachers on their grade-level and within the district. Daly also spoke about the issues with the aging Math program, "Everyday Math." Currently teachers are supplementing their teaching materials with their own personal items. This is because the Everyday Math program is so out of date that elements can't even be purchased now.
Brenda Ennis questioned whether or not the town was "behind the eight ball" by not moving on getting a new program in place immediately. When she asked why the town wasn't moving to obtain a new program as soon as possible, Daly replied that we (as a state) are in flux waiting to see what the requirements of the next and newer tests will be. It is hard to spend the kind of money a new program will cost without knowing what the goals will be for learning. "Don't buy anything now unless you are prepared to buy something new in a year or two," Superintendent Allen Himmelberger told Ennis. He explained in detail that we are waiting until the fall of 2014 to find out what will be expected of the learning process before any major and expensive changes are made. He stated that the prudent thing to do is to research so that funds are not misappropriated, however accidentally that may be. It is a process that needs to be well thought out and meticulously planned. He acknowledged the frustration that this causes.
Chairman Daniel Coonan continued the meeting with a review of the school calendar. With the necessity for extensive professional development and with the renovations at the middle school, calendar changes and updates have become needed. Himmelberger stated that staff members have voiced that they overwhelmingly embrace a traditional start date in September after Labor Day. Despite years of a late August start, this has become a big possibility due to the construction. Also, the school calendar has six newly added half days for teacher professional development. Tossed around was the idea of removing February vacation. This neither went over well with students, nor teachers. The overwhelming consensus was to keep this traditional mid-winter break. Himmelberger requested that the committee make a decision, at least, about the start date to give both teachers and parents a firm decision upon which they can make plans. The board decided a vote would be taken to finalize the calendar at the next meeting.
Zach Tremblay spoke as student rep to the committee. He gave a rundown of some of the goings on from the student point of view. Tremblay talked about the Mr. Oxford pageant, which he and Jenna Bird hosted. It was won by James Higgins. He also mentioned the Student Council Winter Games happening at the High School this Friday. They help students and teachers to build teamwork, strengthen advisory relationships and raise morale. Tremblay congratulated the NJROTC for their six trophies (out of eight entered events) from their fourth and final meet with the Southern New England Drill League on February second. He also invited the committee to donate to the "Polar Plunge" at Revere Beach on February 23rd to raise money for the Special Olympics. In lieu of a donation, he invited the committee members to join in the plunge, to which there were no volunteers.

Industrial property rights
Intellectual property rights (IPRs) form an integral part of the regulatory framework for promoting innovation. IPRs have generally been divided into two main areas: industrial property rights and copyrights. Industrial property rights include patents, utility models, trade marks, trade names, and certain other rarer forms of protection such as the protection of integrated circuits and the plant variety rights. Protection against unfair business practices is also counted among industrial property rights.
Due to their global
importance, most IPRs are regulated internationally. There are many
international treaties as well Community legislation governing this sector.
The national legislation concerning industrial property rights is included in the following Finnish statutes:
- Patents Act 550/1967, Patents Decree 669/1980
- Utility Model Act 800/1991, Utility Model Decree 1419/1991
- Design Protection Act 221/1971, Design Protection Decree 252/1971
- Trademarks Act 7/1964, Trademarks Decree 296/1964
- Collective Marks Act 795/1980
- Act on Trade Names 128/1979
- Act on the Right in Employee Inventions 656/1967, Decree on the Right in Employee Inventions 527/1988
- Act on the Rights in Inventions made at Higher Education Institutions 369/2006
- Act on the Exclusive Right in the Layout-Design of an Integrated Circuit 32/1991, Decree on the Exclusive Right in the Layout-Design of an Integrated Circuit 946/1991
- Act on Plant Variety Rights 789/1992, Decree on Plant Variety Rights 907/1992
- Unfair Business Practices Act 1061/1978
Legislative matters pertaining to industrial property rights fall within the administrative branch of the Ministry of Employment and the Economy and copyright matters within that of the Ministry of Education. Ministry of Employment and the Economy, the Business Law Division of the Working Life and Markets Department deals with legislative issues regarding industrial property rights. The legislative responsibility for the Trade Name Act rests with the Ministry of Justice and that of the plant variety rights on the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry.
The website of the Finnish National Board of Patents and Registration contains detailed information on the various forms of protection as well as the application/ registration procedure. Informal English translations of most of the statutes can be found at the Finnish legislation database (Finlex).

Richard Russo Biography
Richard Russo is one of American literature's foremost
chroniclers of small-town life, making him a contemporary heir to the likes of
Sinclair Lewis and Sherwood Anderson. His novels are set in fading industrial
towns throughout the northeastern United States, and the towns are delineated so
precisely that they almost become characters in their own right. Russo pays keen
attention to the socioeconomic divisions that structure small-town life, the
invisible but palpable lines that determine where people live, work, study, eat,
drink. One of his recurring themes is the way that the decline of the factory
town, as it succumbs to the brutal realities of globalization, affects the lives
of its citizens who would otherwise be resistant to change. Though the settings
and themes of his novels changeacademic life in rural Pennsylvania in
Straight Man, a tannery that poisons the local river in Bridge of SighsRusso
has said, "Really, what I am writing about in all of these is, class and work." This biography was last updated on 11/02/2007.

Our research personnel work through collaborative networks in the United States, Asia, Europe, and Latin America. Our research and consulting on industrial competitiveness throughout the world provide us with a global perspective on regional development. At the same time, through an accumulation of detailed studies of industrial sectors, we have developed a profound understanding of the inner workings of the Massachusetts economy.
Featured research and dissemination activities:
Follow William Lazonick's weekly blog posts on New Deal 2.0. He is writing the series on the theme, "Breaking through the jobless recovery".
Research projects
Through the Center for Industrial Competitiveness, Professor William Lazonick is running a project on "Financial Institutions for Innovation and Development", funded by the Ford Foundation.
The research on the Ford Foundation project is complemented by collaborative work being done on the "Finance, Innovation, and Growth" project, funded by the European Commission's Seventh Framework Programme, and on "The Stock Market and Innovative Enterprise" project, funded by The Institute for New Economic Thinking.
Lazonick wins Schumpeter Prize
William Lazonick's book, Sustainable Prosperity in the New Economy? Business Organization and High-Tech Employment in the United States, published by the Upjohn Institute for Employment Research in 2009 was awarded the 2010 Schumpeter Prize by the International Schumpeter Society.
Reviews of "Sustainable Prosperity in the New Economy?":
- "Lazonick's latest book [is] a bold and wholly engaged attempt to make sense of decades of structural change in the American economy. It is a work that merits close attention from theorists, analysts, policymakers, and historians alike." – Michael A. Bernstein, Business History Review (Read the entire Review Essay by Michael A. Bernstein, professor of history and economics and the senior vice president for academic affairs and provost at Tulane University.)
- "Sustainable Prosperity is a significant achievement, a synthesis of over two decades of research and collaboration in the United States, Asia, and Europe. This timely book should be read by a range of professionals including historians of business and technology, economists, and, one hopes, financial regulators and decision makers in Washington, New York, and Silicon Valley." – Andrew Russell, Enterprise and Society.
- "This is a fascinating book, essential for modern business and labor historians, highly useful for historians of any question where capitalism matters. It mainly concerns the reorganization of business, the firm and operations, in the U.S. information and communication technology industries (ICT) from the 1960s to the latest crash. But as it shows how this richly significant transformation happened, it tells much as well about U.S. capitalism's general development into its newest, speculative stage.

Injecting religion into the science curricula of public schools is often a hidden goal of state legislation addressing the teaching of evolution.
Image: Zachary Zavislak (photograph); Kursten Bracchi (styling)
In Brief
- Creationists continue to agitate against the teaching of evolution in public schools, adapting their tactics to match the roadblocks they encounter.
- Past strategies have included portraying creationism as a credible alternative to
evolution and disguising it under the name "intelligent design." - Other tactics misrepresent evolution as scientifically controversial and pretend that advocates for teaching creationism are defending academic freedom.

Time Line: Evolution in the U.S. Classroom
Professors routinely give advice to students but usually while their charges are still in school. Arthur Landy, a distinguished professor of molecular and cell biology and biochemistry at Brown University, recently decided, however, that he had to remind a former premed student of his that "without evolution, modern biology, including medicine and biotechnology, wouldn't make sense."
The sentiment was not original with Landy, of course. Thirty-six years ago geneticist Theodosius Dobzhansky, a major contributor to the foundations of modern evolutionary theory, famously told the readers of The American Biology Teacher that "nothing in biology makes sense, except in the light of evolution." Back then, Dobzhansky was encouraging biology teachers to present evolution to their pupils in spite of religiously motivated opposition. Now, however, Landy was addressing Bobby Jindal—the governor of the state of Louisiana—on whose desk the latest antievolution bill, the so-called Louisiana Science Education Act, was sitting, awaiting his signature.

Presented to: Richard Dutcher
For: God's Army
When considering Richard Dutcher's film God's Army, the immediate temptation is to focus on this film more for what it seems to herald than for what it actually is. Since LDS filmmaking has now so clearly taken such a major step forward with the release of God's Army, cinema can now be said to have joined the conversation with our culture that so many LDS novelists, playwrights, poets and essayists have been engaging in for generations. God's Army seems to presage a movement, a renaissance, in which Richard Dutcher, in the best LDS tradition, plays the role of pioneer.
And yet we ought not allow the God's Army event to overshadow the film itself. And it's such a lovely, intimate film, a film of understatement and modesty. A powerful miracle scene is treated quietly, without intrusive underscoring or acting histrionics. A prayer scene is accompanied, not by violins or choral angels, but by the simple sound of a car engine sputtering to a start. The camera work is inobtrusive, and yet the camera is always in the right place, and the lighting convincingly captures the shabbiness of missionary apartments.
Dutcher's writing has the same understated complexity as we find in the best fiction of Doug Thayer or John Bennion. His characters are rich, multi-faceted, multi-dimensional. Dutcher's missionaries are believable both as young men and as God's servants, easily confused and yet also idealistic, given to practical jokes, but also capable of great faith.
The story of the making of God's Army, the struggle to raise funds and to find a distributor, is in many ways as inspirational as the film itself. God's Army is a fine and an important film, but it was also a commercial success. That may be the most encouraging thing about it. And so, the Association for Mormon Letters honors not only a remarkable piece of LDS writing, but also the work of a producer of courage and tenacity, a director of vision and imagination, an actor of sensitivity and insight, and a marketer of creativity and skill. It is not hyperbole to declare God's Army the most remarkable and important film in the history of Mormon letters. It is a pleasure to honor this extraordinary movie.

I need to test this version and your opinion about the following things, take note that those fixes are only cosmetic, so no extra feature is added:
1-Do you prefer to display ONLY "+something" partitions in HDD? (yes/no)
2 Do you prefer to display only *.avi files without the .avi and alphabetically sorted? (yes/no)
3-Something was changed in PAL and NTSC, so need your feedback in the following:
3a-test 4:3 and 16:9 movies in BOTH systems (no matter about color) and check if aspect ratio is correctly displayed, no black bars at sides or at top&bottom in 4:3 mode or if image is enlarged.
3b-your system specs, for example: console NTSC v10, TV NTSC/PAL-B, 220AC 50Hz. Modchip type and modchip startup fixes (yFix for example)
With this fix every format is correctly displayed in both systems for me in color
Waiting for your opinions...

Strapless Taffeta Gown with Organza Underlay Style WG3120
Amazing dress!
This dress was amazing! I was 17 weeks pregnant with my second child by the time we had our wedding and I was showing quite a bit, but this dress hid it so well. People found it hard to believe I was pregnant if they didn't already know. The dress is gorgeous and really comfortable. I was in this dress for 7 hours and had no issues. It gives you a smooth, curvy appearance and is just beautiful. I am definitely glad I bought this dress.
October 29, 2013
Wonderful Dress
I saw this dress and fell in love. I am putting colors in the slit in front to give it the "me" factor. It is discontinued and I found the last one in the nation in my size. I loved the staff at DB. Very helpful and sweet.
May 4, 2013
The One
I went to David's Bridal on 1/11/2013 and I tried on every dress. I seen this one and almost didnt try it on. I thought it wasn't very blinged out! When I put it on i couldnt believe elegant, stylish and just enough bling. The train cascades beautifully! I am super happy and cant wait to wear it! I got it in ivory.
January 11, 2013
Beautiful Gown
I tried this gown after my second visit at DB. From the very beginning, I wanted a very simple satin gown. I wasn't completely happy with the previous selections, so for my second visit, I had a more open mind. I never thought I would've picked a princess-style of gown, but I loved it!!! It is very figure flattering. I couldn't beat the sale price either of $380!!!! With tax!
I am 5'2", about 118lbs. I will need to adjust the length. Overall alterations were quoted for about $200

Monye blow will not send Quins off Premeirship course
1:00pm Friday 27th April 2012 in Sport By Stuart Amos
Harlequins director of rugby Conor O'Shea insisted the loss of winger Ugo Monye would not derail his side's Premiership title ambitions.
The 27-year-old British & Irish Lion suffered a hamstring injury in last week's 43-33 defeat to Leicester Tigers and was a major doubt for the play-off semi-final.
Fit-again Tom Williams was likely to be recalled for next week's final day trip to Sale Sharks, while Sam Smith has also been in fine form for Quins this term.
O'Shea confirmed Monye was not certain to be ready for the Premiership final – should Quins get there – but had every confidence his back up staff could do the job required.
"Ugo has damaged his hamstring and is definitely out for the Sale game," he said.
"It is too early to say how long he will be out, but it is not an insignificant injury.
"It is a blow to lose his experience, but he has missed parts of this season and we can more than cope in his absence.
"Tom Williams is fit again and Sam Smith has played well all season. The likes of Seb Stegmann have been flying recently.
"So, I'm sure we'll have plenty of cover."
Meanwhile, Quins pair Mike Brown and Chris Robshaw have been shortlisted for the Premiership player of the year award.
"Chris and Mike know their success is down to the team's efforts and I know they would trade an individual award for a Premiership winners' medal," added O'Shea.

I live down in Utah County and had the opportunity to participate in the "Fun Shoots" at Rangemaster's in Springville. They are put on by the Utah Defensive Pistol League. I went a couple weeks ago now for the first time. I have a lot of good to say about this event.
It was my first time there and I was a little nervous because each time is treated like a loose ruled IDPA event. They more want you to have fun and learn the safety procedures than get frustrated at nit picky IDPA rules. Even though it was my first time, I had a lot of fun. They were all very welcoming and helpful.
We had a training class before we shot, where they went over the terminology and safety procedures. You only have to do the training class the first time. After that we were allowed to go onto the range. The event was in 3 stages and your overall score was the combination of each stage. The following document explains the different stages and the results (stage explanation is at the bottom).
The next event is Wednesday, November 7th. The cost was $12 or so and well worth it. I'm not a member of UDPL or IDPA, but if the other events are anything like it, I will probably become a member of both. Information on the fun shoots can be found at:

This toy is excellent in virtually every way. I just had one small problem. The colors of the one, two, three buttons. I am no artist and art class didn't really teach me many things but it did teach me the three primary colors. Yellow, Blue, Red and I noticed that the colors of the buttons were yellow, ORANGE, and red. And I know that this is kind of a ridiculous complaint, but I think it is important for the kids to know that the colors that make every other color, the three main colors, are not yellow, orange, and red, but yellow, blue and red.

Great for the toddlers, I have a two yr old nephew and two yr old niece that love this so much they fight over it, their older brothers, 4&5 also enjoy plainfield with it as well occasionally. I think it's great for teaching them their colors, numbers and shapes because they are repeating what the guitar is saying to them, but they play with it so much the music gets on my nerves. It only has two songs and that's it. It could've come with more songs, might have been less annoying.

By Stephen Schramm Staff writer
When Staff Sgt. Dwayne Jarrett led a group on a run early Monday morning at Fort Bragg, he performed his usual call-and-response cadence.
"What's the sound of artillery?" Jarrett barked.
"Boom! Boom!" his charges answered.
"Raining down on the enemy!" Jarrett barked again.
"Boom! Boom!" was the response.
A few hours later, standing just outside of Funk Physical Fitness Center, Jarrett, who's spent the last 17 years in the Army and Marines, was still a little surprised by how well they did.
"That whole two miles, they were rocking," Jarrett said. "... It felt like I was running with soldiers."
Inside the small gymnasium, the same men he ran with a few hours earlier were still sweating. Only now, the Duke men's basketball team members were wearing their more familiar blue and white gear, and the loudest sounds were whistles, squeaking shoes and cheers.
Monday afternoon's practice was the final leg of the Blue Devils' nearly 24-hour visit to Fort Bragg.
After sleeping, eight to a room, in the barracks on Sunday night, the team went through physical training, a leadership reaction exercise and an obstacle course that left them caked in mud when they arrived at the gym about noon.
Once there, Duke ran through a nearly two-hour long program in front of a few hundred soldiers and a swarm of media members and television cameras.
"Really, the military is the best team we have in our country," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "It's the most respected part of our society, I believe. Any time we can have any interaction with them, it's a plus for us."
Krzyzewski, a West Point graduate and former Army officer, said he hoped the visit would give his team a chance to learn from a small taste of military life. But the event, which was carried live on ESPNU, also offered the troops at Fort Bragg a fun break from it.
Seated a few rows up from the court, Staff Sgt. Eric Nauta chatted with his stepson, 11-year old Brian Thompson.
With a Duke hat, a Duke shirt and a Duke lanyard peeking out of his pocket, Thompson said he's been a Duke fan as long as he can remember. Nauta, a 10-year Army veteran, traces the roots of his Duke fandom back to 1991. That's when Krzyzewski paid a visit to Duke University Hospitals while Nauta was there for stomach surgery as an 11-year-old.
Both spent the practice snapping pictures and happily soaking in the scene.
"This is an experience, them coming to Fort Bragg," Nauta said. "We've always been trying to get him (to a Duke game). But the money, the traveling, it's been hard. And trying to get out of work has been hard.
"We finally got the opportunity for them to come to us; it's a big thing."
After the practice ended, Krzyzewski and the players lingered on the court, signing autographs and posing for photographs.
Sgt. LaStephanie Frazier got signatures to cover her Duke T-shirt. But she also may have left with best story of the afternoon.
During a late segment of the practice, Krzyzewski picked a few troops to come onto the court and run through some plays. Frazier, who played high school basketball in her hometown of Newport News, Va., and still plays regularly, got the nod to help out on an inbounds play.
Wearing boots and fatigues - "True basketball players can play in anything," she said - Frazier set a pick and quickly cut to the basket. Quinn Cook saw her and hit her with a pass, setting up a layup and delighting the crowd.
"For them to come here for 24 hours, train like we train in the mornings for PT and then come out here and put on a show for us, it was a good experience," said Frazier, who has served three tours in Iraq. "I'm going to be honest with you, I'm a North Carolina fan. But after today, I don't know. Duke may be in the running."
