Candy Crush is setting you up to fail.
Welcome to 2007, Mr. President!
Fixing trademark law could prevent legal battles like the Banner Saga saga from happening in the first place.
Paula Marner was shocked to get an iTunes bill for $3,000 after her 7-year-old twins racked up in-game expenses on her iPad and iPod.

On NPR's Weekend Edition, film critic Elvis Mitchell once said, "I think these movies require a second viewing, just so we can get a sense of what it was they communicated when they were first seen in a movie theater."
He was referring to The Learning Tree and Shaft, two films directed by author/photojournalist/composer/ former bordello piano player Gordon Parks. In the MFA series The Films of Gordon Parks: Retrospective of a Living Legend, ardent fans and neophytes alike will get a chance to see (or revisit, as Mitchell suggests) the work of the first African-American auteur to successfully visualize black pride on-screen -- "for us, by us" filmmaking, if you will.
Although Parks, who turns 89 in November, may not be an instantly recognizable name like Spike Lee or John Singleton, the man certainly has paved the way for those men. Adapted from his semiautobiographical novel in 1969, the earnest and revealing Treemarked the first time an African-American director helmed a major studio film. He followed that up with the immortal Shaft in 1972, a movie that's still as cool and tough as it was back in the day -- and still better than the repugnant remake Singleton did last year. Shaft ushered in the blaxploitation era of cinema and inspired countless knockoffs. (In 1972 son Gordon Parks Jr. would follow in Dad's footsteps with his own badass Superfly.)
Tree and Shaft will be shown, along with Shaft's Big Score!, Leadbelly, Solomon Northup's Odyssey and the 2000 HBO documentary Half Past Autumn: The Life and Work of Gordon Parks. So for those African-Americans who don't wanna see Rush Hour 2 again and are looking for some black movies that will make them feel proud once they leave the theater, you can never go wrong with the Parks canon.

GP's Fries
makes 4
1. Peel then slice to your liking.
2.Soak potatoes for up to an hour changing the water about three times throughout when it gets cloudy.

A Triple Distressing Blog Candy!
You can also win this ATC which I made in honour of the blog candy....
I made it using the Playing Games embossing folder, and inked the ATC with Iced Spruce, then inked one side of the embossing folder with Festive Berries, and ran it through the die machine. It has the effect of giving a raised look with the rays of the folder in two different colours .. that is really hard to describe, but I am sure you know what I mean!
I added a little rosette, and edged it in Festive Berries, and painted a Philosophy tag with Watermelon Dabber, and wiped it off a few seconds after putting it on. It stays in the crevices.
A little tiny bit of Bakers Twine, and my ATC is ready for you to win!
Now here is the easy part...leave a comment to be in it to win it, leave one on my blog for a second chance, and if you feel inclined, add it to your sidebar of your blog, and you have a third chance!
I will be picking the winner on the 3rd December, just so you have the inks in time to play with them for Christmas!
Have a brilliantly Creative and inky day!

One of the more interesting is biophysical chemistry. To understand why biochemical processes occur, it is usually necessary to understand the thermodynamics, because they are usually driven by a delicate balance of enthalpic and entropic factors.

monkeydaddy Group TitleBest ResponseYou've already chosen the best response.0
The heat energy in the warm food you put into your refrigerator is absorbed by the refrigerant in the refrigeration system of the fridge. The heat flows from warm to cold, warm food-cold refrigerant, then the heat is transported in the refrigerant and then rejected outside of the fridge by the outside condenser coil either behind or underneath the fridge.

Cheap Thrills Exposes Human Awfulness
By Alan Scherstuhl
German film director Werner Herzog has a couple of reputations. He is an important artist, and he is also a prankster in the style of Dennis Rodman -- or, one might say, Rodman is a prankster in the style of Herzog, since the director prefigured the sports star by a couple of decades. Just as Rodman pushes the envelope in search of publicity by wearing a wedding gown in public and posing for Vanity Fair covered only by a strategically placed basketball, Herzog pushes the envelope by drawing as much attention to himself as to his movies. He eats his shoe (albeit a shoe boiled almost to aspic) in a 1979 documentary, Werner Herzog Eats His Shoe. For his 1974 movie Heart of Glass, a strange and dreamlike work, he floated a story that he'd had the entire cast and crew hypnotized during shooting.
In both men's cases, the grandstanding postures have sometimes threatened to overshadow their original reasons for fame: Rodman is the best rebounder in basketball, and Herzog is considered a big dog in the New German Cinema -- not as big a dog as Rainer Werner Fassbinder, maybe, but certainly an important auteur.
This week, Houston film fans will have a chance to examine the different faces of Herzog in person. Today and Friday, he'll be visiting town under the auspices of the Goethe Institut Houston. To prepare for his arrival, in mid-September the Institut, along with the Museum of Fine Arts film department and the Rice University Media Center, began a Herzog film series that will continue through December 7. (For details on upcoming films, check the box on this page.) Herzog himself will speak before tonight's Scream of Stone and answer questions following tomorrow evening's Lessons of Darkness.
Those movies, one fiction (Stone) and one documentary fact (Darkness), were both made at the start of the '90s, and mark two poles of Herzog's art. Unlike many filmmakers, he's floated between fictional works and documentaries for most of his career, using the techniques of one to confuse expectations for the other. In recent years, he's spent less time on made-up life than on filming the real thing (and directing opera, another passion); 1991's Scream of Stone was the last fictional film he made, though he's done three documentaries since.
One could, and many have, simply learn the correct pronunciation of Herzog's name and go forth armed with the knowledge that using the term das neue Kino in certain coffee shops would help you get laid. But that's not really art appreciation, is it?
Last Saturday, Herzog fans were treated to one of his earliest efforts, Even Dwarfs Started Small, the movie that really put Herzog on the map. But this Friday's documentary could have a local appeal that reaches beyond area Herzog admirers. While ostensibly about the hellish aftermath of the Gulf War, it's really about Texan oil-well firefighters from the firm of Boots & Coots.
Shot during 1991 and '92, the 52 minute Lessons of Darkness is presented in 13 short segments. The first few are about devastation, both personal and environmental. We see women (not identified) who lost sons and husbands to soldiers. (What country's? We never know.) We see earth and sky as ash and soot, and gray dust contrasts with slick spills. As the camera swoops over the vast pools and their black reflections, Herzog, in an English voice-over, explains that none of the liquid in this dark sea is water; it is all oil. That level statement is presented with his elegant cinematography, a view that perfectly mocks coastal wetlands at sunset. It packs a punch, takes your breath away, gets to you. And Herzog is just warming up.
Herzog sets the scene, giving one a sense of place and history mostly by using his camera well. He's shooting from above (helicopters, even), shooting from ground level, using 360-degree pans and tracking shots that go on for days -- and you don't have to notice. Herzog might employ operatic extremes in his plots, yet his technical work is always mature and professional. What he does with all this camerawork is make sure that the audience is able to see what needs to be seen.
We see it. His camera flies over the landscape. To grand music we see the stagnant clots of oil and tire tracks everywhere, some looping like rivers and others crisscrossing one another to form geometric patterns on the burned earth. What does this mean? I don't think Herzog cares. They're just ... interesting.
We soon, however, get to what he cares about: cowboys. (Herzog has boasted of working as a "rodeo rider" after fleeing a brief stint at an American university.) The stars here are oil-well firefighters, the crazy men of Boots & Coots. These are the guys who mop up after the terror of war. With this crew of roughnecks riding into the terrible landscape with the heart and the means to restore order -- or else to play with fire -- Herzog is back on one of his favorite themes: what defines nobility? What defines lunacy? And is there a difference?
The firefighters have both genius and madness. Through a mirage of heat and against a sky of roiling dust and smoke, Herzog shows us these hardhats walking right into hell. Fires the size of skyscrapers burn furiously. A backhoe drives to the edge of the inferno and scoops out debris. In a ritual with the emotion and beauty of a ballet, the firefighters cool one another with low-pressure water hoses. Herzog presents not only the brute fact of this work but also conveys the feelings involved. These men display any number of noble qualities. They're stoic, earnest ... and sometimes whimsical. One guy sits on the ground, stuffs a hose down his suit and presents a vignette of well-earned rest that stops short only of swigging a cold beer.

The hits keep on rollin' today as Disney announced that Jim MacPhee, former Vice President responsible for EPCOT, has been promoted to Vice President, Next Generation Experience and Walt Disney World Parks. This makes MacPhee the head of operations at Walt Disney World, reporting to resort president Meg Crofton and presiding over the vice presidents of the four individual theme parks.
This is great news. MacPhee, whose Disney cred goes back to 1982, when he was a parking lot attendant during EPCOT Center's grand opening, is known in fan circles as one of the "good guys." Reports from inside the resort say that he's well liked by his cast members, and that he's a stickler for quality.
MacPhee has been well known to fans since 2007, when as newly-minted VP of EPCOT he reversed the decision to ignore that park's 25th anniversary and whipped up, in a short amount of time, a day of festivities for fans celebrating the park's history. A good time was had by all, and MacPhee must have shaken a thousand hands that day as he engaged in conversations with fans for hours. He also, at my request, tried some Beverly. Pictures forthcoming.
Earlier in the year MacPhee was moved from his position at EPCOT to the rather nebulous slot as vice president of "special projects." This concerned many, who feared that it was just a way of sidelining a pesky executive who was reluctant to cut corners.
It appears, though, that MacPhee was really in his secret lab preparing the mysterious new "Next Generation Experience." There are many rumors about what this might entail, which I've reported on since April, but by and large it's all still a mystery. Surely, since they've announced this change in MacPhee's position, an explanation will be forthcoming.
In any case, the citizens of Progress City offer their most effusive congratulations to Mr. MacPhee on his promotion. Applause is also warranted for those in the power structure who decided on this promotion, so to Ms. Crofton or even Mr. Rasulo – well done.

It's 2012 and I can take 6.25 minutes to breath, so lets try again.
I am trying to mount (connect to) folders on my company server, at boot and have the user name & password handled by the credentials file so that I can open & save files as easily as if it was a local file. I have if you have read the post last year, tried just about everything, except moving the server into my office and using it as a box.
what I have done is....
Opened Terminal in Super User mode kwrite /etc/fstab Added ther line below /etc/fstab. Saved & closed fstab opened a new file in kwrite wrote username=WorldTextingFederations (You get the idea) the next line is password=yeahsureyoubetcha Then saved the file in /etc as .creds Next I closed kwrite and exited Terminal
Below are the lines EXACTLY (not really everyone seems to freak if you do put in the real IP, user, folder)
//192.168.18.119/Newtgingrich //smb://192.168.18.119/Newtgingrich/republicans/1d10ts cifs credentials=/root/etc/.creds,_netdev 0 0
Then I ran Mount in Terminal super User mode to see what the reaction to this is
mount -a
solutions:~ # mount -a
Couldn't chdir to //smb://192.168.18.119/Newtgingrich/republicans/1d10ts: No such file or directory
Oddly enough when I plug the line below in Konqueror or the one below Dolphin......they show up with no errors.
So, what did I miss.....besides the bus or the meal?

"I don't have an accent; I'm from England. This is just how words sound when they're pronounced properly."The tendency of English characters in American works to speak with upper-class accents (the academic term is Received Pronunciation; more colloquially, it's called the Queen's English or BBC English) even when played by actual Brits, who may well "posh up" their accent. It's a case of Britain Is Only London but even more so. It's like Britain Is Only Mayfair (a very high-class area of London). This trope is about Hollywood thinking RP is the only British Accent, or that it's the only one the educated English use while everyone else talks like they had a Cockney jammed down their throats. To contrast, the trope is often lamented by the English who speak one of myriad other accents available and rarely get recognition, and can fuel stereotypes and people assuming there's a (nonexistent) 'British Accent'. As the page quote suggests, this might stem largely from the fact that many people think any 'non-rhotic' accent (where the 'r' is pronounced 'aa' as opposed to 'arr' in words like car and guard) is English (Estuary accent, as a result, is often confused with RP itself). In reality, both the UK and the USA have their fair share of both rhotic and non-rhotic accents to go around. On the other hand, this trope is heavily justified in England itself. If someone mentions a "correct" pronunciation or if they have "no accent", they do mean RP, which is both relatively "posh" and the formal "standard", also known as "Newsreader English". This is similar to how Americans say they have "no accent" when they are actually referring to Lower Midwestern US pronunciation. Only so long ago, people paid for "elocution" lessons to learn to speak "properly", and actors from all over the UK were encouraged to lose their natural regional accents in favour of RP - for example, Patrick Stewart is a Yorkshireman by birth, but speaks like, well, Patrick Stewart. It should be mentioned, though, that modern RP is significantly less posh than the standard 'English' accent you will hear on American TV. The accent in question tends to be tied to a Private or Grammar School education, and it is entirely possible to identify students of particular schools in a city or region by their pronunciation. A Running Gag among Britons (and somewhat Truth in Television) is that Americans will always assume any British accent other than the posh 1950s one is Australiannote . Somewhat forgiveable with Estuary English, but completely bizarre when applied to Oop North. Referenced in, among other things, Top Gear. The Quintessential British Gentleman probably speaks this way. Also consider that Europeans often learn this variety in school, especially at university, where RP is the standard. In other countries, like in Latin American ones, for obvious reasons, learn American English, and others, like those from the Sinosphere (China, Japan, South Korea, etc.) can't decide which one is the right one to teach. Interestingly, American English is more popular in Israel despite (or maybe because of) the British Mandate.

Time Warner Cable steps up its Austin Wi-Fi hot spot plan after Google announced it would be bringing its superfast Internet service to the Texas capital.
Santa Clara is the first U.S. city to take high-tech advantage of the conversion from electric meters to smart meters to give free outdoor Wi-Fi to all of its residents.
[commentary] Rumors are flying that Google wants to resell Verizon or Sprint wireless service, but CNET's Maggie Reardon throws cold water on that theory and comes up with her own ideas.
The term "Google bus" has come to symbolize very real tensions between tech companies and the communities they call home. Here's a look below the surface.
Gaps in free wireless Internet access are slowly being filled in by public and private organizations, as well as by ad hoc groups of wireless-network users offering a portion of their bandwidth to the public.
Wireless operators are turning to Wi-Fi hot spots as they try to alleviate bottlenecks on their networks.
As some broadband providers grumble about the cost of network upgrades and threaten data caps on subscribers, Google shows them, through its Kansas City Google Fiber project, how to offer subscribers 1Gbps broadband service at an affordable price.
Wireless Philadelphia, the nonprofit charged with providing broadband bundles to low-income families in Philadelphia, may be better off in the long run without EarthLink.

When I bought my pistol, I had to fill out paperwork with very specific info about myself and the pistol, and then had to wait 7 days before it was mine. I don't see why everybody shouldn't go through the same regardless of where they buy one (ccw permit holders notwithstanding).
It's easy to just save that background check and firearm data instead of discarding it within 24 hours.
That's firearms registration, my friend. Also, that may be the process in your State but it isn't the law of the land and definitely should not be. That is the first step to confiscation. You are S.O.L in your great State of Washington if they ever outright ban w/o grandfathering any type of "assault weapons" or specific types of firearm and you happen to have them in your possession. You will either turn it in or they will come for you.

Pharma's Year in Review
Looking at the first 11 months of 2013, mergers and acquisitions (M&A) in the pharmaceutical/biopharmaceutical industry have increased on both a value and volume basis compared to the same period last year. Although there were no megamergers in the industry, there were several noteworthy deals.
Thus far in 2013, there have been several noteworthy transactions. Amgen's $10.4-billion acquisition of the biopharmaceutical company Onyx Pharmaceuticals, is one of the largest therapeutics transactions of the year. In August 2013, seeking to build its oncology drug portfolio, Amgen agreed to acquire the biopharmaceutical Onyx Pharmaceuticals for $10.4 billion ($9.7 billion net of estimated Onxy cash) and closed on the deal in October 2013. Onyx Pharmaceuticals has a growing multiple myeloma franchise, which includes Kyprolis (carfilzomib) for injection already approved in the United States. Onyx holds global rights to Kyprolis, excluding Japan. Kyprolis has orphan-drug designation in the United States with exclusivity until July 2019, and patents in the US that extend until at least 2025. In addition, Onyx has three partnered oncology assets: Nexavar (sorafenib) tablets (an Onyx and Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals compound), an oral kinase inhibitor, approved in the US for unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma and advanced renal cell carcinoma; Stivarga (regorafenib) tablets (a Bayer compound), an oral kinase inhibitor, approved in the US for for metastatic colorectal cancer; and palbociclib (a Pfizer compound), an oral, small-molecule cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 inhibitor, now in Phase III trials, to treat ER+, HER2-negative advanced breast cancer. Amgen says that the acquisition of Onyx will add to Amgen's late-stage pipeline. This pipeline includes nine innovative products for which registration-enabling data are anticipated by 2016. Four of these products are oncology products. Onyx's pipeline complements Amgen's oncology portfolio, according to Amgen.
Also, in August 2013, Amgen closed on its deal with the French pharmaceutical company Servier under which Amgen has obtained commercial rights in the US to Servier's oral drug, approved in the European Union as Procoralan (ivabradine), for chronic heart failure and stable angina in patients with elevated heart rates. Amgen also received an exclusive option to develop and commercialize Servier's investigational molecule, S38844, for cardiovascular diseases in the US. Currently, S38844 is in Phase II studies for the treatment of heart failure. Through the collaboration, Servier obtained an exclusive option to commercialize omecamtiv mecarbil in Europe. Omecamtiv mecarbil is an activator of cardiac myosin, which is currently being tested for potential applications in the treatment of heart failure in patients with systolic dysfunction.
Thus far, AstraZeneca has been active on the M&A front. In August 2013, MedImmune, the company's biologics arm, agreed to acquire the biopharmaceutical company Amplimmune for $500 million with $225 million upfront and the rest contingent on the achievement of specified milestones. It closed on the deal in October 2013. Amplimmune is a Maryland-based developer of cancer immunotherapeutics.
The acquisitions strengthen MedImmune's oncology pipeline by obtaining multiple early-stage assets for its immune-mediated cancer therapy (IMT-C) portfolio, including AMP-514, an antiprogrammed cell death 1 monoclonal antibody (mAb). AMP-514 is in late-stage preclinical development, and Amplimmune expects to file an investigational new drug filing before the end of 2013. Other Amplimmune assets include multiple preclinical molecules targeting the B7 pathways.
Founded in 2007 and headquartered in Gaithersburg, Marlyand, Amplimmune is focused on developing costimulatory/co-inhibitory molecules that rebalance the immune system and are intended for treating cancer, autoimmune disease, infectious disease, and transplantation. Amplimmune has three biologic product candidates: AMP-224 is in Phase Ib trials in cancer; AMP-110 for autoimmune diseases in partnership with Daiichi Sankyo; and AMP-514 for cancer. The acquisition builds on MedImmune's oncology R&D activities. MedImmune's oncology research is focused on IMT-C, a therapeutic approach that may lead to durable and prolonged response rates across a range of cancer types. IMT-Cs are being designed for the immune system to counteract the tactics employed by cancer cells to avoid detection and attack the body. MedImmune's clinical-stage program includes tremelimumab, an anti-OX40 mAb, and MEDI-4736, an anti-PD-L1 mAb. The acquisition of the Amplimmune technology and pipeline strengthens AstraZeneca's and MedImmune portfolio to enable the use of data-driven combinations of IMT-C molecules as well as combinations with highly targeted small molecules.
In another deal, in June 2013, AstraZeneca completed its $1.2-billion acquisition of Pearl Therapeutics, which is focused on the development of inhaled small-molecule therapeutics for respiratory disease. The acquisition gives AstraZeneca access to a potential new treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease currently in late-stage development and inhaler and formulation technology that provides a platform for future combination products. The $1.2-billion deal included $560 million in upfront payments, $450 million in deferred compensation contingent on reaching certain development and regulatory milestones, and $140 million in sales payments, contingent on reaching sales thresholds.
In May 2013, AstraZeneca agreed to acquire Omthera Pharmaceuticals, a specialty pharmaceutical company based in Princeton, New Jersey, focused on the development and commercialization of new therapies for abnormal levels of lipids in the blood for $323 million ($260 million in cash and $63 million for Omthera's cash balance). Omthera's investigational product, Epanova, being developed for the treatment of patients with very high triglycerides, is a omega-3 free fatty acid composition that has been shown to bolster levels of eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid in the blood. In addition to the cash payment, each Omthera shareholder will receive contingent value rights of up to approximately $4.70 per share, equating to approximately $120 million in total, if specified milestones related to Epanova are achieved, or if a milestone related to global net sales is achieved. This will bring the total potential acquisition cost to approximately $443 million. The transaction is expected to close in the third quarter of 2013. Also in April 2013, MedImmune, the biologics arm of AstraZeneca, acquired AlphaCore Pharma, an Ann Arbor, Michigan-based biotechnology company focused on the development of ACP-501, a recombinant human lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) enzyme.
Other deals
In May 2013, GlaxoSmithKline acquired Okairos, a Swiss privately held developer of vaccine platform technologies for EUR 250 million ($325 million) in cash. GSK plans to use the vaccine platform in its of new prophylactic vaccines (designed to prevent infection) as well as new classes of therapeutic vaccines (designed to treat infection or disease). The deal also includes a small number of early-stage assets.
Other deals include: Perrigo's proposed $8.6-billion acquisition of Elan; Shire's proposed $4.2-billion acquisition of Viro Pharma, a company specializing in treatments for rare diseases; Valeant's $8.7-billion acquisition of Bausch + Lomb; and Actavis' $8.5-billion acquisition of Warner Chillcott.

Tapestry of Grace
Publisher: Lampstand Press
This is one of my 101 Top Picks!
|Instant KeyPublishers InfoPricingProduct Photos
Tapestry of Grace
[Note: the following is excerpted from the complete review that is published only in 101 Top Picks for Homeschool Currriculum.]
Tapestry of Grace (TOG) is a unit study curriculum that covers most of the major subject areas for students in grades K through 12. Some features that make it especially appealing are Christian worldview studies incorporated throughout the curriculum, a chronological approach to history as the basic organizing theme, and a classical education approach based on the grammar, dialectic, and rhetoric stages of learning that allow all of your children to learn the same subjects at the same time but at their own level.
Subject areas covered include history, writing, literature, fine arts, geography, church history including missions (more extensively covered than I recall seeing in most other curricula with the exception of My Father's World), and Bible. You will need to use other resources for phonics, English grammar, math, foreign languages, and science.
Like many other unit studies, while TOG uses many books, it also includes multi-sensory learning options to address different learning styles and interests. These range from reading, writing, and simple art projects through costumed reenactments.
TOG covers the same general topics for all students simultaneously, but instruction and activities are divided into four levels of learning reflecting the classical Trivium (with the Grammar stage divided into two sections). The divisions are: Lower Grammar (K-3), Upper Grammar (grades 3-6 with a purposeful overlap here to address the reality that young students at the same ages rarely progress at the same rate), Dialectic (grades 6-9), and Rhetoric (grades 9-12)....
The lengthy resource lists in each level of TOG (referred to as Year-Plans) list all recommended books by category, with very informative annotations for most that will help you decide which will be most useful for your children. (Note: TOG has a sister store, Bookshelf Central, that sells all of the core books they recommend.)
There are four Year-Plans in TOG, and the idea is that you will progress through each Year-Plan at one level of difficulty for each child (lower grammar, upper grammar, etc.), then begin to go through each again in the fifth year, advancing children to the next level. You can see that the youngest children might go through each Year-Plan three times. A possible alternative is to take two years to cover a Year-Plan of TOG if you are starting with younger children. (The flexibility of this program is one of its major assets!)
Year One: The History of Redemption covers Creation through the fall of Rome. Year Two studies the medieval world through the signing of the U.S. Constitution. Year Three: The 1800s addresses both American and European history. Year Four: The Twentieth Century covers world history, although U.S. history is a major component.
TOG is available in either digital editions (DE) or print editions. Whichever edition they choose, customers may print or reproduce all the pages they wish for their family....
The Loom, which is accessed via a CD or online, is a crucial component of TOG....
TOG also offers a few optional items that are very helpful: [Evaluations, Pop Quiz, Writing Aids, and Map Aids.]
A free, three-week TOG sample is available at the publisher's website so you can try it out before you buy anything—and with their digital delivery system, you can wait until you finish the first three weeks before you pay for and download the rest of your unit. The weekly topics covered by each Year-Plan and the resources used are listed on the TOG website along with other information about the curriculum.
Like most extensive unit study programs, TOG requires a significant amount of parent or teacher preparation and presentation, and large blocks of time should be dedicated over the summer to plan and prepare for each school year. Keep in mind that most parents and teachers will be getting a great deal of education of their own as they work through TOG!
Overall, I think TOG's use of classical education methods combined with the chronological approach helps overcome one of the weaknesses of some unit studies—that children read good books and participate in fun activities but sometimes fail to make connections between topics studied and their chronological relationships. In addition, the worldview threads provide themes for discussions (ideally, directed by parents using Socratic methods) and activities that help children make important connections and understand the significance of what they are learning. TOG comes from a Reformed Protestant viewpoint, but it respectfully tries to include Orthodox and Catholic views as it explores Church history. Consequently, TOG should be easier for those of the latter religious persuasions to adapt than many other unit studies might be.
Note: Those whose oldest children are in kindergarten through second grade might consider using Tapestry of Grace Primer, a gentler introduction to unit study.
Printed edition: $295 per Year Plan or $80 each for individual units

The results are in from Car and Driver's sixth annual Lightning Lap Tests @ Virginia International Raceway (VIR).
BMWs tested in this year's Lightning Lap include the 1M coupe, 335is, X5 M, and Z4 sDrive35is. How did each model fare? See inside.
No, this isn't a shot from outside the Leipzig factory where the 1M was manufactured. This is from a Southern California 1ADDICTS meet where no less than 20 1M coupes gathered this past weekend for a meet & greet. No surprise as the SoCal area is likely to have the biggest concentration of 1Ms in any single geographic area in the world. Check out the great photos inside.
The first 1M + 1-series 1addicts Family get together in Australia was held in Sydney, Australia recently at the Dose Espresso cafe on the Northshore. A good turnout from the local and not so local BMW community.
We have finally been able to obtain a final US 1M production figure for all those curious. The final count for US 1Ms was 740 units, per BMWNA M Manager, Matt Russell
The very first one imported was the Valencia Orange 1M Pace Car which debuted at the Rolex 24 hour race at Daytona.
We received some insight at the Detroit NAIAS as to the reason the 1M production run wasn't extended into the 2012 model year. It was not due to any issues related to engine/emissions certification, … CONTINUED
The crew at Top Gear has presented their 2011 Top Gear Awards, and host Richard Hammond has selected the BMW 1M coupe as his pick for the Car of the Year!
As he puts it, nothing else comes close to the BMW 1 Series M Coupe for steerable, chuckable, laugh-out-loud lunacy…
Check out Hammond's full thoughts on the BMW 1M inside.
Ok, so Playboy isn't the auto enthusiasts' first publication of choice when it comes to automotive expertise, but which of us with Y chromosomes can't help but pay extra attention when Playboy is mentioned together with BMW
The BMW 1M Coupe has made the 2012 Playboy Cars of Year List. Public voting is currently underway to determine the single best car of the year (according to the public), so click through and get your eye candy… I mean your votes in.
Owners of the E82 1 series who want the aggressive looks of the BMW 1M coupe now have a full aero kit package option.
Prior design has released its 1 Series PDM1 Widebody Kit, a full bodykit which gives a standard 1-series the look of the BMW 1M coupe.
The PDM1 package includes:
Prior-Design PDM1-WB front bumper (fits all bmw 1-Series E82 models except 1M)
Prior-Design PDM1-WB side skirts (2X) (fits all bmw 1-Series E82 models except 1M)
