August 06, 2008 | Cigar Weekly Interview with Murray SawChuck |
Cue Heart."He's a magic maaaaaaaaaaaaaan... he's a magic man, Mama." When I used to watch cable network VH1, I'd just as likely come across the video of "Magic Man" from Ann and Nancy Wilson's Heart as I would any slightly more sophisticated or eclectic offerings ranging from Pat Metheney, Chris Isaak, Al Argenti's favorite Indigo Girls or Edie Brickell and New Bohmeians to Fine Young Cannibals, 1970s left over Poco (trying to make a new start), .38 Special, Don Henley... well you get the idea. Eclectic mix about sums it up. Meet Celebra Cadabra, VH1's show where various personalities shadow accomplished magicians to try and learn the art and craft of magic in order to be able to put on at least one act of their own. Say hello to Murray SawChuck. One of Murray's many quality traits is that he's one of us - that's right, a 'Brother of the Leaf' (BOTL). I mentioned I was skeptical, right? Read more... |

Placer County Supervisor Jim Holmes, members of the Placer County Veterans Advisory Group and others will pause to dedicate a Liberty Elm in recognition of Veterans Day, which is Nov. 11.
The elm will be planted on the grounds of the Loomis Library, across from the Loomis Veterans Memorial Hall. The ceremony will take place on Tuesday, Nov. 9 at 10 a.m. The library is located at 6050 Library Drive, off Taylor Road.
Members of the community are encouraged to participate.
District 3 Supervisor Jim Holmes led the effort to acquire the Liberty Elm and plan the dedication. "The Liberty Tree honors the freedoms we enjoy as Americans, and reminds us of the need to be vigilant in protecting them," he said.
The memorial will include a special plaque which recounts the history of Boston's Liberty Elm, an American elm, which was the rallying place for the Sons of Liberty in the American Revolution. It was funded by the nonprofit Elm Research Institute which is helping communities plant disease-resistant American Elms to commemorate the country's founding and its freedoms.
According to the Elm Research Institute, the Liberty Tree, an American elm, was one of this country's first symbols of freedom. On the morning of Aug. 14, 1775, the people of Boston awakened to discover two effigies suspended from an elm tree in protest of the hated Stamp Act. From that day forward, that elm became known as the "Liberty Tree." For the next 10 years, it was used for countless meetings, speeches and celebrations, and often served as the rallying point for the Sons of Liberty. In August of 1775, as a last act of violence prior to their evacuation of Boston, British soldiers cut it down because it bore the name "Liberty."

Order 2nd Day on full-size orders by 11:59 p.m. ET 12/20 for 12/24 delivery. Details
The most noticeable thing about this shampoo is that it really softens your hair. I have really thick hair. Which seems like it would be helpful, but I thought it made my hair too soft and it was harder to style my hair. Smells good though.
this shampoo is very good. i like that you can use it as body wash. cleaned my hair very well
I have been stuck on the shampoo I have used for 20 plus years until this came along. I love the smell and the way my hair (whats left of it) feels after the shower.
I liked this shampoo well enough, but aside from the cool bottle, there wasn't any reason to get it again. That said, I tend to prefer an anti-dandruff shampoo so that my scalp isn't itchy, so take my comments with a grain of salt.
I'm sure these are quality products, but everything I've tried from this brand smells like Palmolive.
Unless you want to keep buying the mass-market brands of shampoo that cram who knows what into their fragrances, this is for you. Cleans well and smells great. I will definitely look forward to more GO247.
This stuff is great! I was happy to sample more of the GO247 lineup after getting a sample of their texture paste a few months ago. I instantly bought the full size version of that, and the shampoo is the same. Works great and smells great!
This is straight forward shampoo. Nothing fancy, no bad smells, cleans well. Not too much else to say about it.
I like this stuff. I usually find most shampoo is either too harsh and makes my hair dry, or too weak and leaves it feeling oily. It gets my hair clean without making it feel like straw.
This is great, simple shampoo. It has a great scent and the packaging has a nice feel to it. It cleans my hair as well as anything else I've tried, not leaving it too oily or too dry.

primary education
Openness at the school level is surprisingly high
Amid the hype about open education disrupting the status quo of higher education, school-level teachers and learners have been assiduously creating, using, and sharing open educational resources for years.
Michael Shaw, Director of TES Pro from the Times Educational Supplement (TES), wrote a chapter in the recent ELIG/UNU book Openness and Education. He spoke with Open Education Europa about the need to recognize and include primary and secondary education in the open education movement.
"When I started writing the chapter for ELIG, I had no idea how angry I would get!" Shaw said. He pointed out that a lot of the discussion on open education is all about higher education, which does not do justice to the importance of school-level materials and educators. "Some of the school-level websites like TES Connect and the Khan Academy have as good engagement, if not better, than the university level platforms."
TES Connect has almost 3 million registered users and over 700,000 free resources. In comparison, popular MOOC platform Coursera has just over 2 million members and iTunesU has over 500,000 resources. TES partners with Khan Academy, another pioneer in open education at the school level that records higher user figures than many of the major university-level open education websites.
TES Connect originated as a discussion forum for teachers on the TES magazine's website. Many teachers used the forum to share materials, so a file-sharing platform was added to the website. The "Resource Bank" proved to be so popular that it was relaunched in 2008 as TES Connect with additional functionality for teachers to rate and comment on resources, along with social networking tools.
Shaw emphasized that open education is more than offering conventional closed education for free. "Wiley talked about the four elements of openness, two of them being remixing and reusing, and that's what teachers on TES are doing." Teachers using the platform can comment on content created by other teachers and suggest improvements. Even better, they can download the content, change it themselves, and then upload it again.
"Material is being shared by the teachers," said Shaw. This type of collective knowledge creation and sharing is at the heart of open education, and it is a valuable approach to teachers and learners at any level.

Rob Starkey joined WACH Fox in 2008. During his years at WACH Fox, Rob has worn many hats in the newsroom including reporter, director, and sports anchor.
"People were ready for a change. People were ready for something different, and I think its good people spoke," said Shealy.
"I'm ready to roll up my sleeves and clean up corruption at the Statehouse," said Bernstein.
COLUMBIA (WACH) - Election Day is shaking up seats at the Statehouse.
Incumbent Sen. Jake Knotts is among two longtime lawmakers finding themselves on the losing end of Wednesday's ticket.
In Lexington County, petition candidate Katrina Shealy defeated Knotts Tuesday.
Four years ago Shealy narrowly lost in the primary to Knotts. After being removed from this year's ticket, she went door-to-door gathering signatures to get back on the ballot as a petition candidate.
"When you go door-to-door and you touch that many people and they find out your a real person just like they are; that's what makes people realize you're just like them," said Shealy.
For Knotts, he is proud he has been able to work in public service for more than 50 years and says he has left the new senator in a good position to represent the country.
"I've done everything a senator and a public servant should do for you. I just want to say thank you, and I hope you understand that's what's expected of a senator and demand that happens," said Knotts.
In Richland County, House representative Joan Brady was defeated by newcomer Beth Bernstein.
Bernstein, a lawyer, feels her message of bringing integrity back to state government, and being an outsider, were the keys to victory.
While the newcomers are on separate sides of the aisle, both have ethics reform at the top of their to do list. They hope new blood can help change the system.
"My message of ethics reform really resignated with the people of this community and this district. I'm an outsider and they're looking for new people to clean up the statehouse," said Bernstein.
Brady thanked supporters for the opportunity to serve in government for 16 years and says she is happy she was able to be part of making families safer and the economy stronger.
Bernstein and Shealy will be sworn-in in December.
While Knotts and Brady are out of a seat, they both plant to continue to be a voice for the community.

In Touch Weekly Dec 21, 2009
Thanks to Gossip Dance for the scans :)
Disney zac has never had tossled hair, until he started copying Rob. He had the over styled school boy hair cut before that. They have this so back to front, it should be tagged as "WHAT A LOAD OF CRAP!"
Lmao at the tags Gozde...
SP will never go away & that's more scary than any horror movie...
And to say Rob is turning into Zac, that doesn't even deserve my comment..
You can't compare the man to a boy. Zac is too "sugar & sweet-boy-next-door". Is Zac's handlers trying to change his image?
And one word for People Mag:desperate!
This might be the most desperate tabloid journalism I have ever seen. I am speechless. (And that happens very rarely!)
geez, pining and RPG already said everything I was gonna say! Palin, Efron-gack, bleh.
I love how the article said that they were going to buy a house together to find out if they're compatible. Yep, investing in real estate and creating a potential legal entanglement if they break up is definately the way you test the waters and find out if you actually want to date someone. sounds logical to me!
(by the way, that comment was NOT designed to once again flog the dead horse of a relationship debate! don't give a crapsten!) ;))
Holy Crap! ITA with tags,comments.
Not worth a response; however, Rob copying the Disney puppet:
Hahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! People really turning into a rag mag!
I remember reading the Twilight/Palin comparison and thinking "how bizarre"....but maybe it was the fantasy world connection that led them to that comparison.
you aren't kidding about hurling, just looking at those pics of zach made me want to hurt. i dont understand how they could even think of comparing GQ covers...
about the house hunting, doesn't kristen own her own house right now, maybe just rob is house hunting to start investing some of his money. i dont think they are looking for the love shack LOL.
"Zac Efron is a nice guy but is there a grown up woman that finds him sexy?"
Gozde you are soooo right!!
And also Rob is unique..our wonky dirty humble hot guy!!!
Who's copying who exactly??? I've nothing against Zac, my little sister totally likes him but Rob is soooooo not turning to Zac!!! Instead I see Zac turning to Rob!
I'm with jl...WTF!?!
More trees waisted for useless crap.
WTF???? tell me they did NOT just post full picture of Kristen's place in a magazine! there is no respect...we have seen the plant and the red door before in pap pics...but really??? why not just post the address as well and be done with it... :S tomorrow half the crazies in LA will be holding a convention on her lawn :S
regarding Rob and Zsc...that's just too ridiculous to even start thinking about it...just LOL
Rob said he wants to buy a house, talking with Ellen Degeneres.
And about Efron, pfff, waste of ammo.
My NBs have said everyrthing I was gonna...but I just want to throw this in for good measure...
That is all...
Even Rob's doll is hotter than Efron's doll.
Zac is NOT copying Rob!! He's had that haircut before! So don't say what you don't know. He had to look older for Me and Mr. Orsen Wells. And he is gettting older. He wants to break away from the Disney image! So he is not copying him! Neither is copying neither!(:
so looking at the pic again...were there any pics from the new moon promo of just rob and kristen because most of them just have taylor cropped out but you can always see just a little bit of taylor's suit in most of them. also, did you notice the location of rob's hand, naughty-naughty boy.
oh, and pining, whenever you get back...lovelovelove the new avi!
finger porn=WIN :)
Rob did NOT want to do a teen movie, did NOT want to be a teen idol............THEY thrust him into that world with stupid crap like those bogus comparisons.
Rob has his own style he doesn't copy others he sets his own pace and anyone who really knows something about him realizes that - GAH I hate the manipulation of the media.
Gag to Sarah Palin and the Zac and Rob comparison.
July 2007
August 2007
@Ana Yes that was the first thing I noticed in that picture weeks ago. Kristen's peekaboo see thru dress and Robs hand curved right under her boob!!!! Whew - makes me tingle. That lucky beeeaaach.
He has had that hair before SaraH. Correct!
The article said they were looking for house to RENT .......that's a good idea.
You can get out of that commitment a lot easier than if you buy.
Can't believe they showed Kristen's home - they are certainly thrust into a higher socioeconomic class now - that is so hard to handle even for adults, I can't imagine young people doing very well with handling all that money success and fame that happens SO quickly - it's really impossible to deal with - as time goes on we will see how they really manage to stay grounded and true to their roots and the way they used to be............you've gotta change when you are just in another world now.......they will change, they have changed .......but I just hope their changes are for the good, not bad, and they aren't going to need rehab in a year or so...........like so many others that get so screwed up by fast fame and fortune.
It sounds so wonderful to have all that money and attention but it can really mess you up when you have it and even more when you lose it. Lindsey, Britney, Matthew Perry, Robert Downey JR., Gary Busey, Nick Nolte, Kobe, Tiger list is a mile long.
Sometimes it amazes me how we idolize these people who rarely have finished High School, rarely ever gone to college, can't keep a family together, lie and cheat on spouses and have multiple partners and ruin their childrens lives, drink/drug and rehab all the time and we hand them millions of dollars.
Sorry - I just get totally pissed off sometimes at how backassward our U. S. society is in what we hold high.
Idolizing Rob is a fun pastime and something I'll continue to do cause I like him so much...........and I like talking to all of you so much.......but I'll always believe it is wrong that they make millions for pretending to be someone else, when we who do the REAL work of the world get shit.
That sounds so sour grapes and jealous, I'm sorry, but think about it.
I like them... they brought to life characters from a book a love... But, whenever or if ever they come out an say they are together... it's is none of my business... That part of their lives have nothing to do with me as a fan... I am a fan of their work... also... when an article say "friend" says... who are these friend. Because reoprters talk to friends and they never say anything that I've heard. MMHO.
To me Zac E. is a nice looking young man.. but nothing compare to Robert... their looks are totally different Zac's face are kinda round and I think he would tend to go towards chubby... to me at least. Robert is sexy cheekbones... eyes brows... lashed and eyes. Plus he's tall all legs, hands, feets, lips...and..
femroc, you're right, I read it more closely and it does say rent-that's much better! Thanks =)
Urgh, you'd think magazines would get sick of spouting the same drivel over and over again. But clearly not!
I've never thought of Rob as being similar to Zac (more clean-cut and pretty/safe boy). They're similar ages and both actors, that's about it.
No comparison at all. No way is Rob turning into Zac! I think you ladies are right. There may be a bit of desperation & have nothing better to print. Ridiculous!
The credibility of this entire mess is shot with those GQ covers. They say that Rob is imitating Zak? Well whose cover came out first? It even says, Rob in April and Zak in May. Don't give this shit another thought.
While Rob is fueling a worldwide phenomenon that has already hit the one billion mark (with 2 to 3 films to go), Zak's 'Orson Wells and Me' has been a dismal failure. And you don't see Zak being cast opposite actresses who are 16 and 26 years older than him (Emilie was 5 and I don't know how much older Christina is than him). Could you honestly see Zak Effron seducing the 49 yr. old Kristen Scott Thomas? It would be laughable. I promise you, no will laugh when Rob does it.
One is a man that Hollywood is very heavily investing in. The other a boy that Hollywood is not. Zak is a pretty Disney kid and once he outgrows his teen idol days, Hollywood will toss him on the scrap heap. He'll probably end up in television. It's so simple. One is a man, the other a boy. Period.
One last thing...
They do need to find somewhere to hang their hats because it can't continue to be at their parents houses or hotels. And I don't think they need a 'getting to know you' period. They've known each other for over 2 years and they've been co-habitating for nearly a year.
Interesting note...the first house I ever remember living in was up in Beechwood Canyon. My parents bought the place when I was 3 and my Dad lived there until he died. It's the 'original' Hollywood Hills, where the early stars used to live (Greta Garbo, Charlie Chaplin, Katharine Hepburn, etc.) before they built Beverly Hills and Bel Air. It's a mix of run down, quaint and old fashioned cottages. Alot of 'young Hollywood' lives up that canyon until the become big ass stars and end up in Bel Air or Malibu. A few of the bohemians end up in Venice. I would think this particular canyon would be a perfect fit for Rob and Kristen...for an LA abode that is. It's weird. Up in that canyon you are only 5 minutes away from Hollywood Blvd., yet it's so quite you'd think you were out in the wilderness. People even leave their front doors open. I loved living there and if I can ever manage it, I'll move back.
P.S. If they do choose Beechwood, I'll bet I can guess what the main factor was. He'd be less 10 minutes from Sunset and Vine (I think it's Vine) and what is sitting on that corner?
Correct. The only 'In-n-Out' in Hollywood. LOL!
On January 11, 2010, it was announced that Sarah Palin signed a multi-year contract to provide political commentary on Fox News as a contributor.
Another P.S.
Beechwood Canyon is also the SAFEST of all the canyons, meaning...
It's the only 'original' one and the only one with shale in the soil, meaning the others are all 'man made.'
The houses up Beechwood withstand the disasters while all around them (in the man made canyons) the houses come tumbling down. My parent's home was built in 1919 and it's still standing and has withstood every earthquake and mudslide.
Class dismissed.
....and much like a high school teacher..no one pays attention..LOL
I believe Zac will go somewhere! He is a talented actor! He is just getting started! No need to freak!
They've got that backwards!rob did GQ first and zac copied his pose!rob has had messy hair since forever zac only recently ditched the pasted-to-forehead look to imitate robs scruffy do!just because efrons been around longer doesn't mean he was the first to do everything...except make my skin crawl!
I understand where you're coming from and you know what? So do alot of actors who get paid these enormous sums of money. And those who've got a conscious about it, are embarrassed by it I think that Rob is one of those. Remember what he told Ellen about the joke car and she was appalled and said...'who's taking care of you man?' He basically told her he wanted a simpler life style. He said..."I just want to be one of the people."
He also once said that he 'hated money and what it does to us.' He said he wished he could 'do what he does for free and just give it to the people.'
Those three things; his wanting to live simply, his additude towards money and his wishing he could just give his talent away to the people, told me a WHOLE LOT about Robert Pattinson and got me to thinking...'well, well, here's something new and different.'
If he were to announce...'I will only accept $100,000 a year for all of the work I may perform in that year as an actor' he would be lynched by his fellow actors because he would be undermining the market. He can't do it. Ralph Fiennes works with a very tiny theatre group in London and is only paid 'scale' when he does so and has come under fire from his fellow actors for doing so. The reasoning is, if a big star who can get more, is willing to take less, then how can a struggling actor whose trying to make more...make more?
But I'm gonna make a prediction here. I don't think were going to see Robert Pattinson living an ostentasious (sp) life and flaunting his wealth all over the place. Now, as his fame grows and when he has children, he will have to live in more secure digs. Which usually means something more secluded with security. He won't like it, but if he's going to have a home in LA, he's going to have to do it.
He could more simply in NY (a downtown loft perhaps) or maybe find some little cottage in a little village somewhere in England.
Another thing to consider...
If your name generated hundreds of millions of dollars, don't you think you should be compensated for that? I doubt you or anyone else would turn it down. But I do know what you mean? I really do. You know who's really important to society? It's not our movie star or our athletes.
It's our garbage collectors. We can go a long time without our favorite actor, but how long would it take for our neighborhoods to be buried in garbage if we didn't have someone come pick it up for us?
I have a feeling darlin' that Rob would agree with that assesment wholeheartedly...that the garbage man is more important to society than he is.
Once again, Zac has had that hair before! http://s851.photobucket.com/albums/ab78/MileyCryussux/?action=view¤t=august2007.jpg&newest=1
Sorry Kemberly...
I know that I tend to go on and on. Occupational hazard of the writer I guess. For what it's worth, I am self conscious about it. I know that the internet was not designed for discourse, but rather, one or two sentence comments.
I just had some information about that neighborhood 'cause I used to live there and I thought it might be interesting to those who are interested in him.
If I could communicate in a couple of sentences, I would. But I don't know how.
Sorry again.
Zac who? One word--Pffffft!
@ Nik: It is interesting. Sounds like a nice place to live. How's your book doing, by the way?
As for the article I'd rather take it with a grain of salt, after all it's a gossip magazine, isn't it? Of course they come up with a story about them searching for a house - very soon there will be stories about jealousy because of all the attractive ladies Rob seduces as George in Bel Ami - you can bet on that.
How much house hunting can they have done since the New Moon premiere? Rob is still in London, right? They were apart for some of the holidays, then together...in England.
too bad Rob's GQ was before Zac's. and it has been said that Zac is turning into Rob cuz he has even been dressing the way that Rob does. but these magazines had to try i guess. but Rob is NOT turning into him. if anything Zac wants to be like Rob! lol
I won't waste any time on the Zac biz. Yawn.
But- I as far as the house hunting thing- Rob did say on Ellen that he'd like to buy a house.
And I also think he and Kristen are already living together.
I am not saying that they bought a house. A permanent home together is a big step, but living together in hotels.
That's my guess.
Hey Phos...
How are you? It's always nice to see one of the old gang. Have miss your comments. As for the book, it's coming along. Some days good. Some days a struggle. Interestingly enough, it's about my parents and some of it does indeed take place up in that canyon in that house. Take care and come play more often. Wish alot more would (of those who were here when I first showed up; a nuttier bunch if ever there was).
And as to who inquired when they would have time to house hunt? Well. They did spend an entire month in LA after NM promotion until just before Christmas. That's enough time to at least start to look. But then the stupid damn tabs have to give up the locations where they might possibly be looking. I hate the tabs. HATE THEM!!!
And I still say I'd prefer him up Beechwood because it is the safest of all the canyons in the Hollywood Hills.

TALLAHASSEE -- A bill that empowers parents.
A bill that hands public schools over to private interests.
A red herring.
No matter what you think of the so-called parent trigger proposal, one thing was made clear Thursday: the bill will be among the most contentious of the Legislative session.
The proposal, which would allow parents to petition for dramatic changes at failing public schools, including having a charter-school company take over, won the approval of a House education subcommittee Thursday by an 8-5 vote along party lines.
It was also the subject of a memo from Education Commissioner Tony Bennett to Rep. Carlos Trujillo and Sen. Kelli Stargel pointing out some potential pitfalls. Gov. Rick Scott acknowledged Bennett's memo had already made its way to his desk.
But perhaps most telling was the impassioned public testimony that preceded Thursday's vote.
Advocates, including representatives from the Foundation for Florida's Future, former Republican Gov. Jeb Bush's education non-profit, argued that the legislation would give parents a more prominent role in local school systems.
"As you look across the state of Florida, what you will see [is that] a lot of parents really want to do something about their schools," said former state Sen. Al Lawson, a Tallahassee Democrat involved in the charter school movement.
But parent groups, school districts and the teachers' union slammed the bill, saying it was crafted for private education interests seeking to boost enrollment, receive additional money from the state, and assume control of taxpayer-funded school facilities.
"The Florida PTA feels very strongly that this is misleading the public and it could have devastating results to our kids," said Dawn Steward, the organization's vice president for education. "We want you to pull the bill, not the trigger."
The House subcommittee on choice and innovation in education debated the proposal for 30 minutes before all eight Republicans voted it up.
"This is giving a tool to parents in failing schools," said Rep. George Moraitis, a Fort Lauderdale Republican.
Controversy seems to follow the parent trigger. The law is already on the books in at least seven states and up for consideration in Georgia and Kentucky. In California, efforts to convert traditional schools into charter schools have prompted bitter court battles and scathing editorials. Last year, a Hollywood film cast the legislation in a favorable light.
It sparked fireworks in Florida when it first surfaced during last year's legislative session. Parent groups aligned themselves in opposition, prompting the Senate to kill the bill during a dramatic, last-day-of-session showdown.
This year, Bush and his foundation are determined to see the proposal through to Scott's desk. During a recent trip to Tallahassee, the former governor told reporters he was confident the bill would become law.
The proposal has been watered down some from last year. The new proposal would give the local school district the right to approve the parents' choice of reforms, which could also include converting the school to a district-managed turnaround school. In the case of a disagreement between the parents and the district, the state would make the final call.
The bill also requires school districts to notify parents when their child's teacher is teaching out of his or her field of expertise, and to give parents information about alternative virtual learning options. And it prevents children from being assigned to ineffective teachers for two years in a row.

It's AcWriMo 2013!
Inspired by the hugely successful NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month), PhD2Published, a blog dedicated to helping academics publish, has announced that November is also AcWriMo (Academic Writing Month).
AcWriMo is a month long academic write-a-thon for academics at all stages of their careers. PhD2Published will support writers with dedicated posts about academic writing and thousands of Tweets to encourage you to keep going throughout the month.
According to their website:
"There are 6 basic rules:
1. Decide on your goal. You might count words, hours put in or projects achieved – it's up to you. But try and push yourself a bit. (And if you need help counting our PhDometer app – the proceeds from which help fund this month-long writing extravaganza – was designed for just that!)
2. Declare it! Basically, just sign up on the AcWriMo 2013 Writing Accountability Spreadsheet and fill in the sections on what you'd like to achieve by the end of the month. Being accountable is key to this working for you. You need to feel a bit of pressure to get the work done. So sign up and add your goals as soon as you can.
3. Draft a strategy. Don't start AcWriMo without doing a bit of planning and preparation. Get some reading done, carve out time slots in your schedule to dedicate to writing, even buy your favorite coffee. Sort out whatever you'll need to write, and get it done now, there won't be time when November comes around.
4. Discuss your progress. OK so being on Twitter and Facebook with us all day isn't acceptable – you've got work to do – but checking-in at certain times is really important! We want to know how you're getting on? What is working for you and what isn't? Do you need help? Do you want to share a writing triumph? (You'll find most discussion about AcWriMo on Twitter using the #AcWriMo hashtag, but if Facebook is more your thing, go there. Or use your own blog to keep in touch. You can even write little updates you want to share in the spreadsheet.)
5. Don't slack off. As participant Bettina said of the first AcWriMo, you must 'write like there's no December!' If you push yourself, you'll quickly discover the tips and techniques that work best for YOU and that'll save you even more time in the long-run.
6. Declare your results. It's great to use the spreadsheet everyday (or as often as you can) to chart how you're getting on, but even if you can't do that, you MUST announce your results at the end of the month. Our writing community benefits not only from sharing in your achievements, but knowing what didn't work and being reminded that, at the end of the day, we're all human!"
So everyone should go forth and WRITE… That's what I'll be doing this month!

He maintains the original and coherent idea that architecture and design should carefully reflect the confusion and sensuality of the city. His first success came about in Japan, where, during the 80's and 90's, he designed more than twenty buildings and interior designs. His work reflected that original mixture of enthusiastic intuition and culture that were intrinsic to him. He subsequently built a wide range of shops, restaurants and museums in Europe and Great Britain, including the National Centre for Popular Music and the Geffrye Museum, both in England. These two works were chosen to represent England at the Biennial of Architecture 200. His furniture design and objects in glass, like those for Hitch Mylius and Salviati play with association and context and merge their stylistic references into sensual flowing forms. Throughout his career, Coates promoted his ideas by means of exhibitions and publications, amongst which is his most ambitious book "Guide to Ecstacity".

Love the design.
I love the design, but i was a bit diapointed when I opened the box and felt the material itself. It feels too thin and flimsy. But I did not install yet...Hopefully, once all the parts are attached to each other, it will feel more rigid. By:R , Architect (New York)
The light is modern and sweet...... It was great for sitting room
By:Designer Z , Designer (Beverly Hills Ca)
modern delight!
It simply looks great! I love it. I have the clear one and just added a touch of elegance and modern sparkle to my rooms. It was not as easy to connect as other lamps i have connected. The major issue was the ceiling plate was too small for the standard american electrical outlets and I had to take it off and buy ceiling canopy kit to fit around it. The only thing i didn't like was the bare white electrical cable but over all i simply love the lamp. By:Leonel , Homeowner (Miami Beach)

WASHINGTON - A new ad from the National Rifle Association is causing controversy for the nation's largest gun advocacy.
The ad makes reference to the security of president obama's daughters, sparking harsh criticism from those who say the spot crosses the line.
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney attacked the ad saying in a statement, "Most Americans agree that a President's children should not be used as pawns in a political fight. But to go so far as to make the safety of the President's children the subject of an attack ad is repugnant and cowardly."
The N-R-A is fighting back with their statement saying, " Whoever thinks the ad is about President Obama's daughters are missing the point completely or they're trying to change the subject. This ad is about keeping our children safe."
The ad comes just as President Obama announces his plans to curb gun violence saying his first task is to keep children safe.

On this 7th Episode of BusinessWise TV, host Arte Maren interviews sales expert Patrick Valtin about the Emotional Tone Scale and how it can be utilized to dramatically increase ones ability to sell.
Patrick V. Valtin
President of M2 Tech, Public Speaker, Writer, Management Coach/Trainer
Mr. Valtin has extensive experience on an international basis in the fields of management consulting and training. His specialties as a consultant extend from recruitment to sales and sales management, leadership, organization and corporate strategy.
His professional experience with US and European corporations in addition to his early background as a salesman (started at the age of 15) gave him a strong taste for down-to-earth management principles which can be applied by pragmatic business owners around the world.
Mr. Valtin has traveled in more than 30 countries over the last 22 years and has trained more than 75,000 people in the areas of sales, marketing, Human Resources Development, organization and leadership. His customers and seminar attendees have come from all industries, from growing businesses to multinational corporations.
Professionals having attended Patrick's seminars include representatives of Re-Max, Century 21, Motorola, AIG, American Hospital Supply, Travenol, Unilever, EDF, GDF, France Telecom, ATT Canon, Assurance Generale, Zurich Insurance, Lendl, Coffee Lavazza, BMW, Renault, Peugeot, Mercedes, Toyota, Ford, Applix, Postcardmania, etc.
With a MBA from USC in 1982 (Master of international Business Studies), he also graduated from the "Hubbard Organization Executive Course" in 1992, a specialized course for consulting business owners and executives of small-to-medium sized companies. The Hubbard Management Technology is used by 185,000 companies and has received worldwide recognition as a unique, practical management system for those who thrive to succeed.
Mr. Valtin is still Chairman of U-Man Belgium, one of the biggest consulting & training firms in Europe. He is the former President of The Hubbard Management Consultants Association in Europe, as well as a founding member of the Advisory Board for the Hubbard College of Administration, International (Los Angeles).
Mr. Valtin is the author of the NO-FAIL-HIRING™ System, a practical method of recruiting. He is also the author of the NEW ERA SELLING™ System, a down-to-earth method that can help boost any sales activity. He has written books and developed diagnostic tools on the following subjects:
- Personal Sales efficiency
- Audit of the sales force
- Recruitment/pre-selection of candidates
- Personal Performance evaluation
- Personal Productivity
- Company's strategy
Patrick Valtin currently lives in Clearwater, Florida with his lovely wife Chantal, and their three children: Anne Caroline, Steve and Nathan.
Anne just graduated from her International Management studies at St Petersburg College. She also works as an office manager in my different companies – what a treat to have my daughter work with me! And on top of that, she is very talented… and loves to kick her dad's butt!
Steve is an amazing guy who just loves to help people. Last year Steve spent one month in China, helping as a volunteer minister. He became an expert in helping people with assists, a very effective system of reducing any kind of trauma – physical and/or emotional. Steve is now also working in the family business and is becoming an expert in Website development. Steve is the web master in our company and in our special PR projects.
Nathan is in 6th grade at Clearwater Academy International. He is a passionate dirtbike rider and has also hunted down – so far, 4 deer in the Cross City woods (north east Florida).

CES outing for 'world's thinnest' tablet, Ultrabook, says Toshiba
Toshiba, for one, seems keen to continue offering netbooks in spite of the rise of the tablet - it's going to show off a new model at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES). Dell and Samsung may be exiting the netbook biz - possibly prematurely, since netbook shipments actually went up during 2011 - but Toshiba is sticking in and …
Rounded corners............
And that connector looks very familiar
I can see the appl lawyers just slobbering all over those tablets!
Again: who cares about thin?
Seriously, who cares about how thin a 10 inch tablet is? The thing that makes it difficult to carry is the width and height, not the thickness - that and having to carry around the charger because the battery life sucks, because the battery is too small, because a bigger battery would make the device (gasp!) thicker!
Double the thickness and give me more battery, damnit! Better still, give me TWO batteries and the ability to change them out one at a time, without having to power down.
Yet another netbook...
...practically identical to a two year old one - why no progress in this sector?

Poul Henningsen was born in Copenhagen to the famous Danish actress Agnes Henningsen. He never graduated as an architect, but studied at The Technical School at Frederiksberg, Denmark from 1911-14, and then at Technical College in Copenhagen from 1914-17. He started practicing traditional functionalistic architecture, but over the years his professional interests changed to focus mainly on lighting which is what he is most famous for. He also expanded his field of occupation into areas of writing, becoming a journalist and an author. His lifelong collaboration with Louis Poulsen Lighting began in 1925 and lasted until his death. To this day, Louis Poulsen Lighting still benefits from his genius. Poul Henningsen's pioneering work concerning the relations between light structures, shadows, glare, and color reproduction—compared to man's need for light remains the foundation of the lighting theories still practiced by Louis Poulsen Lighting.

A judge has ordered a mental evaluation for Nathan Calvert, the suspect in the home invasion and murder of a Dixon man.
On Thursday, District Court Judge Kim Christopher ordered Calvert, 32 years old, to undergo a psychiatric evaluation at the Montana State Hospital in Warm Springs.
An autopsy revealed that Doug Morigeau was stabbed 54 times in the attack, and was beaten with a gun; his wife Cheryl was seriously wounded in the attack.
Authorities say the home invasion appears to be random; Cheryl Morigeau told investigators she and her husband didn't know the man who forced his way into their house and attacked them with a knife.
Investigators believe Calvert was high on a synthetic marijuana drug called "spice" when he attacked Doug and Cheryl.
Prosecutors say in an interview with law enforcement Calvert said "...he had been smoking spice for one-and-a-half to two weeks almost constantly."
Court documents also say he was smoking it the day of the attack and that "...he had been hearing voices and hallucinating while smoking spice."
Prosecutors say on December 6, Doug and Cheryl were watching TV when they heard a noise outside. Doug opened the door to see what it was, saw nothing, and started to close the door when Calvert barreled into the home.
Doug started to fight with the intruder, trying to get him out of the house, but prosecutors say Calvert knocked him to the ground and attacked him.
Cheryl asked Calvert what he wanted and that's when prosecutors say he came after her and cut her throat.
Doug then got up and grabbed Calvert and even though Cheryl was severely injured, she managed to get up off the floor and run out of the back door to a relative's house for help.
Officers arriving at the scene saw Calvert run into the house, out the back door and into a nearby field, and that's where he was arrested.
Investigators say he told them he didn't know why he killed Doug, with prosecutors saying Calvert told officers, "...that Morigeau would not die and he kept stabbing him in the neck, stomach and all over."
He also said Doug kept coming at him trying to kill him. Prosecutors also say Calvert told investigators he stabbed Cheryl in the neck, but didn't know how many times.
Calvert is being held in the Sanders County Jail in Thompson Falls on $1 million bail.

Summary and Book Reviews
Annabel: Summary and book reviews of Annabel by Kathleen Winter
Someone famously said once that reading novels is the best way to understand the thoughts of people other than ourselves. Or something like that. Regardless, this is the biggest reason I read fiction. I am fascinated by human beings and what makes us tick. Kathleen Winters has written a remarkable book that takes the inner lives of a small family and blows the pieces apart for us to dig through and marvel at. This book will show you some of the things inside your own head, as well as making you think twice about what your family members might be feeling. (Reviewed by Beverly Melven).

College Success Tip #13
Self Awareness
What is self awareness?
Self awareness is a way for us to explore our individual personalities, value systems, beliefs, natural inclinations, and tendencies. Because we are all different in the way we react to things, learn, and synthesize information, it's helpful to occasionally spend time in self-reflection to gain a better insight into ourselves.
Why is self awareness important?
Self awareness is important because when we have a better understanding of ourselves, we are empowered to make changes and to build on our areas of strength as well as identify areas where we would like to make improvements. Self-awareness is often a first step to goal setting.
Examples of self awareness:
Internal links for self awareness
As a College of the Canyons student, you have access to classes through counseling that provide instruction on learning styles and other areas where we need self reflection. The health center offers workshops and information on various ways of making healthy choices, as well as offering counseling to students who need someone to talk to.

Auto-advance: ON
Auto-advanceThis transcript is automatically generated
Which is a very segment tonight the national media went into a frenzy this weekend after Mitt Romney announced Paul Ryan as running mate.
NBC news chief foreign affairs correspondent Andrea Mitchell said this about Ryan.
-- Not a -- that yes I've been my.
I joining us now from North Carolina and analyze Rivera Bernard Goldberg dot com mr.
So not pick for women yeah.
-- is that I say this is almost funny.
-- Paul Ryan says that are.
First let me say I think what she's really saying.
Is this is not a pick for liberal women who hi Andrea Mitchell hang out what I think I think that's the real point she's making.
But -- Paul Ryan says that our rights come from god not from government however you feel about that.
-- you think it come they come from god or from government however you feel about that how does she jumped to the conclusion.
That this is in a pick for women -- the younger women.
Single women.
Will vote for Barack Obama we know that.
Married women married women with children older women.
Tend to vote Republican.
But something has happened to Andrea Mitchell along the way I think the MSNBC culture.
Has washed over she travels all over the world with Hillary Clinton.
But I think she ought to spend more time.
In that part of the country between Manhattan and Malibu.
And meet some women who -- like the one she hangs out with in Georgetown.
Well look I mean there's -- -- and I I'd agree with you ms.
Mitchell used to be a very hard news oriented journalist.
And there is no longer that and she says these things up the top I mean here's how ridiculous is this.
Paul Ryan says that our freedom comes from god.
Doesn't a declaration -- independence say that I believe it does so I'll give it the inalienable rights.
So Agnew quit playing without ever yeah I -- -- are we gonna settle this declaration on fire now what.
We haven't gotten my point is even if she is quibbling with that even.
Even if you believe our rights don't come from god that there is no god that they come from government.
How do you how do you go from that.
To that this -- -- a vote for women I don't get the connection.
And and I'll tell you what it is though.
When reporters hang they live in a bubble.
And and her bubble is in Georgetown.
And when you hang out with too many like minded people.
You make the mistake of thinking.
Everybody thinks that way and they don't.
That that's was good about me.
Because nobody wants to hang with me I don't have anybody that's a good point right that's -- you can't be infected.
By the points of view of my compatriots because I don't have it turns are.
Three presidential debates one vice presidential debate and the moderates have been name Jim Lehrer.
He's over it PBS Candy Crowley CNN chief or.
-- CBS he did a very soft interview with Romney and Ryan on sixty minutes last night.
And Martha Raddatz my -- colleague in Boston.
Will do the VP.
Debates now.
All of those people are very Smart -- know what you're doing as far as journalism is concerned you'd agree with that correct.
Yep right then I don't think -- like mr.
Schieffer for personal reasons and you can read about that.
In my novel those who trespass at the first time I've ever said that on the air by the way and I know and -- loved that book.
Grade this a great book and -- But here's what's wrong with this this no juice here you know it's the same old stuff.
That if they Candy Crowley asked -- a question and they don't choose to answered go off on any tension.
Candies are gonna do it I get hey listen you -- united sort of quest to get back in here yet he started -- -- and that's why these debates are almost obsolete.
I put your complaint was going to be along ideological lines -- Dallas and expect I wasn't expecting this.
Along ideological -- let me say.
That they're all gonna be on their best behavior -- there on the big stage the whole world is watching.
So I'm not.
I'm not gonna lose any sleep about that but you are right that this is sort of you know in a new age of media.
This is sort of a throw back this is sort of traditional.
Perhaps traditional to a fault.
I think we -- Ted Koppel latter -- semi retirement have him do that are you know I mean yeah we're we are now.
Bringing in people who will do a fine job of asking the questions.
But both Romney and Obama are -- to do the two step and they're gonna cancel what they want.
And then we ought to be say they're garner -- -- anyway I'm jealous Bernie.
I'm jealous that I didn't get invited that's why I'm I'm petty and that's why I'm saying what I'm saying you of course are none of those things and always good to see I am not jealous I'm not -- and I'm not sure -- What that says it was about the third time -- --
