The Smiths HOW SOON IS NOW ? Lyrics
Last updated: 07/02/2013 06:44:21 AM
I am the son
and the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the son and heir
Of nothing in particular
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
There's a club, if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die
When you say it's gonna happen now,
When exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone
Thanks to Sam Skuse for submitting HOW SOON IS NOW ? Lyrics.

"How Soon Is Now?" is a song by the British alternative rock band The Smiths. Written by Smiths singer Morrissey and guitarist Johnny Marr, it was originally a B-side of the 1984 single "William, It Was Really Nothing". "How Soon Is Now?" was subsequently featured on the compilation album Hatful of Hollow and on American, Australian and Warner UK editions of the group's second album Meat Is Murder (1985). It was belatedly released as a single in the UK in 1985, where it reached number 24 on the UK Singles Chart.
Sire Records chief Seymour Stein called it "the 'Stairway to Heaven' of the Eighties", while co-writer Johnny Marr described it as "possibly our most enduring record. It's most people's favourite, I think." Despite its prominent place in The Smiths' repertoire, however, it is not generally considered to be representative of the band's style. Although a club favourite, "How Soon Is Now?" did not chart as well as writers Morrissey and Marr had expected. Most commentators put this down to the fact that the song had been out on vinyl in a number of forms before being released as a single in its own right. The original track runs for nearly seven minutes; however, the 7" single edit cut the length down to under four minutes. The complete version is generally used on compilations. The song has been widely praised for the artistry of its lyrics.
A cover of the song by Love Spit Love was used in the soundtrack for the 1996 film The Craft, and later appeared as the theme song of the television series Charmed for all eight of its seasons. The song briefly made an appearance in the 4th episode of BBC's show Inside the Human Body.
The song's title was inspired by a line in Popcorn Venus: Women, Movies and the American Dream by Marjorie Rosen, which Morrissey picked as one of his favourite books in NME in 1983. From Wikipedia
Sexuality | Reviewer: beth | 7/1/13
This song, is NOT about being a closet gay, like a few people are saying. Morrissey is an asexual. Asexuality is basically not feeling any sexual attraction. Most asexuals still want to be loved and cared for (such as heteroromantics, homoromantics) it's not about his lacking skills in pulling someone at the club, it's about his lack of sexual drive towards the people in the club but him still wanting to be with someone, just not in a sexual way.
Its pretty clear | Reviewer: Chaz | 5/18/13
He's talking about being too shy to approach potential mates in clubs, and his frustration at continually failing to pull. Its nothing to do with being gay. If you think that you should read the words and stop telling people to "wake up" to a stupid conclusion
about the lyrics | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/19/13
Lyrics shouldn't be read into too deeply. It's good to discuss them, but the lyrics of a song should be the best way of communicating the message that it was meant to, the best way of conveying some type of meaning, through words at least. I feel trying to explain this song would only take away from its meaning. For example, I could say the song is about a shy person trying to meet someone, looking for love, not for just a one night stand, and finding it difficult.
Oh, nothing in particular... | Reviewer: MonsieurMorbid | 2/16/13
I grew up with this song, and probably will die with it. When I was young, I used to think that Mozz was saying "sun and air" :P
I interpret the "nothing in particular" as a sardonic reference to a line that shy people say when asked a small talk question, such as "What did you do this weekend?" Response: "nothing in particular..."
The "son and heir" in this case means that the speaker is so used to the "nothing in particular" line that it almost ingrains itself inside.
The Smiths forever!
"stand on your own" | Reviewer: Shoplifter | 12/4/12
This song always made the hair on my arms/neck stand up. Not just lyrics..I'm half deaf when it comes to lyrics....but the music itself is also ...amazing. Its true what "the critics" say...one of the best song of the 80's I would probably probably agree...now.
Well its obvious he read a lot and he's stealing lines here and there.
What are the rest of the lyrics of his other songs like?...they are like journal/diary writing and that's what this is.
Its about alienation, not fitting in, loneliness, sexuality (not just gay, as that would be too simple), teenage angst/weirdness. The need to be wanted - BEING WANTED BY SOMEONE ELSE
There's a club, if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die
I think this is what gget me.
"And you go home
And you cry
And you want to die"
It tells you directly...who usually feel that way?...teenagers.
35/40 olds..maybe but we've been though that shit before, so they wouldn't express it that way.
I'm not a Morrissey (band) fan...his music is too depressing, but the stuff he wrote (or half lifted) with Smiths is really great. Imagine if he actually, took the chance and tried shifting the style of music with Johnny Marr.
Just damn good | Reviewer: david hare | 1/11/12
I was born in 58 as was Morrissey.This song would play at closing in a favorite nightclub in my city when I was in my 20's. Some nights, it completely nailed exactly what I & others were feeling as we shuffled out into the 2AM summer night.Alone. It was truly a masterpiece then..& it is now.
My Interpretation | Reviewer: Brett | 12/19/11
Okay, it sounds like he had been patiently waiting for love, but it never came. His failed attempts have turned into hopelessness and impatience and anger, which I think are justified feelings because he had been patient and he did try, but to no avail. Now he says that his shyness is to blame. I guess because his shyness was something he could never get rid of completely, he turns to anger in order to find love, an emotion that would already arise from his powerlessness, or feeling of it. I don't feel that blaming his shyness out of anger is justified, but it is in the song, and does help explain some things. Being angry doesn't do much for meeting new people who may be interested in him, so he writes a song. And maybe it works. If it doesn't, then it at least helps him with how he feels like he's no one. Hence why it's a popular song. And maybe why he found love, if he did. His writing is always better than being or feeling like no one, and better than being just shy. So as far as my interpretation is concerned, something along these lines. Or maybe he just wrote the song so people can try to figure him out... j/k.
who knows | Reviewer: gerald | 12/19/11
Maybe it's about a nobody transforming himself into a mysterious someone by expressing himself using these words. What's funny is that through the music and the words we have trouble grasping who he is (or why he wrote it), although it's better than being no one. But it's possible he's confusing his feelings about who he is as a person on the outside with who he is as someone's significant other, who is at best, still a mystery to him.
Big applause | Reviewer: anonymous | 12/16/11
Big applause to anonymous 5/23/11. I agree that the real anti-social people are the ones that but the labels on other people thinking that it's not anti-social at all. Meaning labels like he is strange, crazy, loco, freaky, ugly, etc. No one is nothing until anotherone says he is something. I am nothing. I am nothing. I am nothing. I am nothing. I am nothing. And I am everything good and bad things are in me. And I will live my life in peace and harmony. I say NO, and you say YES (and you will change your mind).God save the queen y al rey de España.
Neil really? | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/23/11
Neil really? I think that for one we can all agree that this is a song about alienation and wanting to be loved.Just look at the lyrics again if you don't think so.
So what kind of BS is this "It's a shame the anti-social "it's just a song" crowd have to come.."
This comment labels people as anti social and even implies that they don't belong looking up the lyrics to this song that might help them feel better about being alone(the exact thing that implies this is when you say the anti social crowd creating two different crowds one that fits in and one that doesn't and then you even say they "have to come here" (it should be they had to come here btw) as if their opinions don't matter and that they don't belong here and I might add you are saying they don't belong looking up lyrics to a song about alienation Really?? You're kind of missing the whole point of the song.
Also I agree that people have different interpretations of songs but why the hell are you going to make people that try to look for comfort in a song, feel even more alienated than they already did?
Interpretation | Reviewer: Lauren | 4/13/11
We all have different interpretations of the lyrics, because we're people, and the song will have a different meaning for each of us, whether that's politics, religion, homosexuality, whatever.
For me, it's about the need to feel loved. 'I am human and I need to be loved, just like everybody else does', and then the lines about the club 'you could meet somebody, who really loves you, so you go and you stand on your own, and you leave on your own, and you go home, and you cry and you want to die.' The club line, in particular, for me, is about the need to be loved. How people feel they can just go to clubs and they have this idea in their head that they will meet someone 'who really loves them'. But they usually don't, and they 'stand on their own' and then 'go home, and cry, and want to die'.
This also ties in with the last four lines:
'When you say it's gonna happen now,
When exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone'.
For me this is saying they've been waiting so long for someone to love, to love them, but they've waited to loo long and 'all their hope is gone'.
Then the 'you shut your mouth' lines seems to be him talking to someone who has accused him of 'going about things in the wrong way' but his motivations for it are love.
The son and heir lines, for me, are that he has inherited shyness, which he finds 'criminally vulgar', as it probably doesn't help in his quest for love. Then he says he has inherited nothing in particular, so this for me is him feeling quite worthless.
This is just my interpretation of the song because that is the best way I can relate to the song. We all interpret things so that we can relate to them. We're probably all wrong.
I UNDERSTOOD | Reviewer: Splinter | 4/10/11
I think it deals with shyness in all context of the song, not everyone succed in life, not everyone find love on the corner of the street.. "i am the son and the heir of a shyness that is criminally vulgar" ..the song is dedicated to young people who has problem to fit in the society.. shy people not gay people.. i think that is a problem that the world don´t want to understand.
Song And History | Reviewer: Ars Nova | 3/19/11
I laugh at the dummy G.I. on the steeple of Sainte-Mere-Eglise. I'm American. They should repatriate the graves, even Capt. John H. Miller's, and put up some nice condos. In WWI, Germany found out just how expensive a sustained war can be. They even excavated lead pipes for bullets. WWI was a land grab by the wealthy nations. The Zimmerman communique and Germany's unrestricted sunmarine warfare was the U.S. casus bellum. Adolph Hitler, initially, was right. But his annexation of Czechoslovakia and Poland, the "final solution" and his attack on Leningrad assured Germany's defeat. Like Ludendorf and his spies seeking out "defeatism" in the German public, the Morrissey-Marr composition "How Soon Is Now?" is a song detailing defeatism. The subject craves intimacy, is told to try the pub with no success. But he "cries and wants to die" which is evident of a defeatest mindset.
Sexuality | Reviewer: Rob | 2/11/11
It's about a closet gay. Read the words, that's what it's about. Trying to come to terms with being gay on your own and going to the club, only not having the courage to act. I am the son and heir, in other words he's expected to make babies. I am and human and need to be loved like everyone else.
Wake up.
My life | Reviewer: Godoy | 1/27/11
All the discussion about this song is simply nonsense. It tells about my teenager time, and everyone had that feeling. What about going out and feel you do not belong to that society??? To the place you were, waiting for someone to love you and spending your time with dull people??? that's the 80's fella!

In what's sure to be a competitive affair, MotoGP star Valentino Rossi and Formula 1 ace Fernando Alonso are scheduled to go head-to-head in a race for ultimate Italian bragging rights. One thing's for certain: the winner will wear red.
On January 10th, when fellow Italian brands Ducati and Ferrari share the stage to show off their racing wares at the annual Vrooom event, the so-called Challenge Exhibition will pit Rossi and Alonso, along with the rest of the two teams' drivers and riders, in go karts specially prepared to drive on the ice and in 4X4 Fiat Pandas on an off-road course.
We wish there was a little two-wheeling on the schedule... we know Rossi is more than capable on four wheels, but we're kinda curious how Alonso might fare with only half his normal contact patches. In any case, feel free to place your bets in the Comments section.

The 2010-11 season is right around the corner. No, it is like literally right around the corner. Training camps open in a few weeks and we can finally stop conjecturing and start making sense of this summer of upheaval. The new season will be much different than the old. So let's start thinking 2011 and all the hope and promise that comes with it.
Jeff Clark of CelticsBlog.com has organized the NBA Blog Preview, consisting of all the best basketball blogs across the Internet, to help everyone get ready. The Magic will be coming up sooner rather than later and the season will be around the corner. I will be trying to keep up and give a Magic-centered look at each team being previewed.
New York Knicks
Last Year: 29-53, Missed Playoffs
Last Year vs. Magic: Won 114-102 in New York (11/29); Won 118-104 in Orlando (12/2); Won 118-103 in Orlando (4/9)
This Year vs. Magic: Nov. 2 in New York (7:30 p.m.); Dec. 30 in Orlando (7 p.m., TNT); March 1 in Orlando (7 p.m.); March 23 in New York (8 p.m., ESPN)
Magic Connection: None
The Previews: Robert Hall/Bandwagon Knick, Mike Kurylo/KnickerBlogger, Seth Rosenthal/Posting and Toasting, Joey/Straight Bangin'
You can make a fair argument that no team had as disappointing a summer as the New York Knicks. You can make an argument, but you likely will not get very far with it.
Sure Donnie Walsh had dreams of adding the trio of players now residing in South Beach and had a realistic shot at getting two of them. But bagging Amar'e Stoudemire and trading David Lee for some dependable players is not a lost summer. More than that, Walsh brilliantly kept his team in a position to go out and spend some next summer when Chris Paul and Carmelo Anthony might be made available via trade or free agency.
If New York has any allure left for free agents (now there is an argument worth having), the Knicks are in a position to at least try and take advantage.
But New York fans for the first time in a while might be drifting away from talks about cap room and summers long into the future. Knicks fans have a reason to think playoffs and realistic chance of seeing Madison Square Garden into late April.
Coach Mike D'Antoni has proven to be a basketball genius. He has completely maximized rosters in New York that were almost built for failure. Now with a star like Stoudemire to anchor his team and a bunch of young, energetic players to run his Seven Seconds or Less offense, New York may start to resemble Phoenix. Note how I said resemble.
In reality, this Knicks team is still pretty far away. Stoudemire is a great add but he had his issues with D'Antoni before and is not exactly known for being a great team player or someone who can defend the rim. It is pretty easy to envision this team being something like the Paul Westhead Denver Nuggets of the early 1990s.
It should make for some basketball in Madison Square Garden throughout the year. So Knicks fans should not complain about that.
How the Knicks will beat the Magic: Mike D'Antoni is crafty. Crafty like a fox. And your defense always has to be on guard when D'Antoni is in the building.
New York still appears to be fitting the pieces in, but this is a very athletic team that will not be afraid to go small — even against Dwight Howard. There will be matchup problems all around in this matchup. The Magic handled the Knicks pretty easily last year, but guys like Danilo Gallinari gave the team troubles in spots.
It is tough to predict how this Knicks team will come together. They do not have the point guard like D'Antoni did in Steve Nash (sorry Raymond Felton) and they will be working in a lot of new pieces into the lineup.
Still, D'Antoni is one of the great offensive minds in the game today and you never know what he will cook up. You just know you are going to have to run to face it.
How the Magic will beat the Knicks: Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard. Dwight Howard.
Oh, and Dwight Howard.
Yes, New York has Stoudemire now but that should not be a huge concern for the Magic. Stoudemire is more famous for filling his own stat line than for playing defense.
Not only that, Howard should have free reign on the boards. David Lee, the team's best rebounder is gone, and the Knicks are short in front court depth. Rony Turiaf, Eddy Curry and Timofy Mozgav are not exactly striking fear into Howard's heart. He will be the anchor defensively as he always is and should feast on New York's interior in this game.

Landings and G-out bombhole compressions are dealt with equally easily, with potential to cope with really huge stuff if you increase the progressiveness and end stroke compression damping on the shock.

British registered company, GlaxoSmithKline, faces $3 billion in penalties after pleading guilty to the biggest health care fraud case in history. GSK admitted that physicians had been bribed to push potentially dangerous drugs in exchange for Madonna tickets, Hawaiian holidays, cash and lucrative speaking tours. They also admitted distributing misleading information regarding the antidepressant Paxil. The report claimed that it was suitable for children, but failed to acknowledge data from studies proving its ineffectiveness in children and adolescents.
GSK faced charges that they had used the gifts to sell three drugs that were either unsafe, or used for purposes that were not approved. The first drug, Paxil also known as Seroxat, was touted as safe and effective for children and adolescents. The ineffectiveness of Paxil, and the link to suicides, meant that it was banned for kids under 18-years-olds in 2008.
The second drug, Avandia was used in Britain to treat diabetes until it was withdrawn due to safety fears, including increased risk of heart attacks. The US government claimed that GSK had attempted to conceal the data surrounding the dangers.
The third drug, Wellbrutin is used in the UK for treating depression, but it was alleged that GSK had recommended physicians used it for ADHD, lost libido and as a slimming aid. None of which were approved uses for the drug.

Edward vs Goliath
15 July 2011
Peers are discussing the phone hackng scandal today, and there are some great lines coming out of the Upper House.
"Blue Labour" cheerleader Lord Glasman has been out hailing his boss's bravery in taking on News International, with some great biblical rhetoric.
"It was with great courage the leader of the Labour Party stood like King David stood before the bully and with the single stone he laid him down. He began this change," said the peer.
"The Sun was beginning to denigrate Ed Miliband to start running six-minute loops of his repeated mistakes and putting panda eyes - beginning to systematically attack him.
"But the leader of the Labour Party stood up. It reminded me of the biblical story of King David because King David was sitting in his farm, looking after his sheep, his brothers were generals and lieutenants in King Saul's army and Goliath was standing, the great bully going to attack them."
Would the comparisons have been the same if David Miliband had been leading Labour right now?
Also worth a mention is this, from Lord Howarth of Newport.
"There is, I think, a resentment among politicians that many journalists are better than they are at their job - they're cleverer, they're quicker," he said.
"There is a jealousy that journalists rather than politicians - in the public perception and often in reality - lead the national debate, and the campaigning journalists are often more effective than campaigning politicians.
"And there is a fear on the part of politicians that the media have displaced Parliament.
"Where is the true debating chamber of the nation? Is it the House of Commons or is it the studio of the Today programme or the editorial column of the Sun or Daily Mail?"

Opening a business is always scary. In this economy, the idea can be down right terrifying. One local couple refuses to let some tough times get in in the way of a great opportunity. Mary and Randy Stark are celebrating the grand Kaleidoscoops this weekend, their second ice cream store.
"I had never scooped a cone before this business," says Randy.
Now he is a certified pro.
Randy first brought up the idea of "doing something new" almost two years ago. He says Mary agreed, as long as it was nothing like the business he was already in. So, he turned to Craigslist for ideas.
"He was looking at an empty school building in the middle of Kansas," says Mary. " I said, what would we do there? He said I don't know but it's a good price."
It took almost a year, but eventually they found an ice cream store for sale in Canon City. They opened their first Kaleidoscoops in September of 2009. The Starks say it was a match made in heaven. This weekend, Randy and Mary are celebrating the opening of their second store, this one on 8th St. in Colorado Springs.
"People smile when they come get ice cream," says Randy.
Although they didn't purchase store #2 on Craigslist, they did use it to purchase equipment. All of the equipment in the new store is used. About 90 percent of it is from Craigslist.
"It saved us a lot of money, and it helps us get in here quickly," says Mary. "It helps us succeed."
"I just love Craigslist!" says Randy.

"It is with great pride that Major League Soccer celebrates the 10th anniversary of ¡MLS Futbolito!™," said Russell Sargeant, senior director of partnership marketing for MLS. "Hundreds of thousands of participants have enjoyed this grassroots initiative over the years. It has become an event for the whole family to attend. We would also like to thank all of our corporate partners who have contributed to making this program possible. Without their commitment and support, ¡MLS Futbolito!™ would not be the success that we see today."
MLS Futbolito will continue to work with MLS W.O.R.K.S., the League's community outreach initiative to support programs such as Active Bodies Active Minds, a soccer-center initiative that provides resources to motivate, reward and encourage children to live a healthy lifestyle through fitness and nutrition.
Associate level partners for MLS Futbolito are adidas, Allstate, The Home Depot, Makita, Pepsi, Quaker, Volkswagen and Xbox.

Last week in Open Cup
Charlotte defeated El Paso 0-1 on a 72nd minute goal in a second round US Open Cup match at El Paso. Charlotte's Nate Thornton was credited with the goal initially, but post-game both teams agreed it was an own-goal caused by El Paso.
Player to watch – Darryl Roberts
He's scored three goals in 2012 for Charlotte, good for fourth overall in USL PRO for goal totals this year. Roberts was selected by Toronto FC in the 2007 MLS Supplemental draft, but Roberts played overseas in Europe instead and never donned a jersey for the Reds.
USL PRO play
Charlotte is currently 2-7-2 in league play, good for ninth out of 11 teams. Charlotte lost its most recent match on Saturday 1-2 against Orlando City. Midfielder Christian Meza scored the lone goal of the match for Charlotte.
Open Cup history
Charlotte has never won back-to-back US Open Cup matches. It is 0-1 all-time against MLS teams, losing previously to Chivas USA.
Full match highlights from FCD's 3-2 loss at Real Salt Lake.
SAVE: Kevin Hartman denies Ned Grabavoy early.
GOAL: Alvaro Saborio heads one in to give RSL the 1-0 lead.
GOAL: Rookie defender Matt Hedges scores his second goal in as many games.
GOAL: Saborio responds quickly to restore the home side's one-goal lead.
GOAL: Blas Perez sends in a shot that Kyle Reynish can't handle.
GOAL: Nat Borchers scores the stoppage time game-winner after some chaos in the FCD box.
Match Highlights from FCD's 2-1 road loss to the Chicago Fire.
GOAL: Rookie defender Matt Hedges scores the first goal of his MLS career.
GOAL: Sebastian Grazzini strikes from distance to tie the match for the Fire.
SAVE: Sean Johnson denies Blas Perez's attempt from the spot.
GOAL: Marco Pappa follows up Grazzini's PK shot to give Chicago the lead.
MISS: Daniel Hernandez goes just high on his long-range attempt.
Join us this Saturday, May 26 at 7 p.m. at The Londoner Frisco for our Party at the Pubs watch party presented by Budweiser.
FC Dallas takes on league leaders Real Salt Lake at 8 p.m. on Fox Sports Southwest and this is your chance to watch the match with FC Dallas fans.
The Londoner Frisco will be showing the USA vs. Scotland international friendly on the NBC Sports Network beginning at 7 p.m., so you can come and watch USMNT before FCD plays.
2010 MLS MVP David Ferreira and midfielder Bobby Warshaw will sign autographs from 7:30-8 p.m. before the match starts.
The first 100 people through the door will receive FC Dallas sunglasses and bottle openers and fans can also enter to win an autographed Brek Shea Fathead, a 2012 FC Dallas home jersey, a trip for two to the Texas Derby in Houston and more.
Winless in their last five, winless away, a squandered home lead against punchless Philly, and a sports psychologist on the way. This is probably not how Schellas Hyndman had 2012 mapped out in the preseason.

2010 Massachusetts ITQ Grant Program Information
The Massachusetts Department of Higher Education (DHE) is issuing this Request for Proposals to distribute Federal Fiscal Year 2009 funds allocated under the No Child Left Behind: Teacher and Principal Training and Recruiting Fund. The State Agency for Higher Education Partnership grants are funded by the Title II: Part A Improving Teacher Quality (ITQ) component of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 which reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA).
The DHE will administer Title IIA funds by awarding competitive sub-grants to eligible partnerships of Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) (including public and private institutions at both 2-year and 4-year levels), and local educational agencies (LEAs). The partnerships must use the funds to conduct professional development activities in mathematics and/or writing in order to ensure that high school educators have appropriate subject matter knowledge in these academic subjects and an understanding of the current national dialogue around "college readiness" in order to raise student achievement and to enhance students' readiness for the expectations and demands of college mathematics and writing courses.
US Dept of Education ITQ Grant Program Purposes and Priorities
The goal of this funding is to improve student academic achievement through initiatives that provide high-quality training for teachers that are grounded in scientific research. The program supports partnerships to develop innovative initiatives that prepare, train, recruit, and retain highly-qualified educators. These initiatives should be aligned with current Massachusetts' education reform initiatives, including the Massachusetts curriculum frameworks and the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS).
Funds must support one or both of the following types of activities to enhance student achievement in LEAs and schools participating in the partnerships:
The program priorities focus on closing the student achievement gap through innovative projects that address the following:
Massachusetts 2010 ITQ Grant Program; General Information, Priorities and Requirements
Under the Improving Teacher Quality State Grants Program, the DHE will make competitive grants to partnerships comprised, at a minimum, of:
In addition, these partnerships may include multiple IHEs, multiple LEAs (including non-high need school districts), non-profit independent schools, non-profit organizations (such as museums, science centers, educational partnership organizations), and college assessment personnel.
Participating IHEs must have a record of demonstrated experience and effectiveness with professional development and college remedial coursework. At least some of the IHE faculty participating in the partnership must have experience with college-readiness outreach to high school teachers to ensure that teachers will acquire sufficient knowledge and appropriate teaching methodologies to design new courses or to enhance existing ones with a college-readiness focus.
An IHE partner must be the fiscal agent and official applicant for the grant. Moreover, project directors or co-directors must be IHE faculty members and/or permanent staff persons with background and expertise in the related subject matter.
In 2010, the Massachusetts ITQ program's focus will align with the mission of the Board of Higher Education in the areas of college readiness and curriculum alignment. ITQ funds will be allocated to partnership activities designed to enhance student achievement and college preparation in mathematics and/or writing in participating high-need school districts, which will increase the chance of student success and ultimately, reduce the number of students who are unprepared to begin credit-bearing mathematics and writing courses upon college admission. Note that ITQ funds cannot be used directly for curriculum development of new high school courses; other funds will need to be accessed for these purposes.
ITQ grant proposals may include projects focused solely on mathematics or writing, however, proposals that bring faculty together around both disciplines will be given priority during the proposal review. Furthermore, preference will be given to proposals which:
· Improve communication and collaboration across Massachusetts' education system around college readiness, curriculum alignment, and new ways for teachers to prepare students with the necessary content proficiency to succeed in entry-level college courses with the ultimate goal of increasing college attendance and completion. (As an example, a project may enroll high school teachers in college courses to learn new content, different pedagogy and learning expectations in the college setting. Another project may explore course alignment and content gap analysis, wherein high school and college faculty from the same discipline conduct norming sessions to collaboratively review and evaluate student work from both high school and college courses. Another project might bring together faculty, curriculum coordinators, guidance counselors, principals, college assessment staff, and parents to explore important college expectations and demands on students, such as: habits of mind, intellectual maturity, ability to think critically, and independent study skills.)
The DHE currently has approximately $500,000 available to support new 2010 Teacher Quality Partnership Grant projects via a competitive review process. DHE expects to fund up to five grants for between $75,000 and $150,000 per year for up to three years, pending US Department of Education ongoing funding. The annual project cycle will be May 1 through April 30.
The announcement of awards will be made in March 2010. Project will commence upon approval of the Interagency Service Agreement (for awards to public colleges and universities) or the Standard Contract (for awards to independent colleges and universities and nonprofit organizations).
Upon receipt of an award, the lead IHE becomes a sub-recipient of federal assistance. The Institution must retain all program and financial records related to this grant for a minimum of five years. The sub-recipient also is required to provide records and financial statements as well as access to those records and statements such that DHE can assure that an audit of the sub-recipient meets the requirements of OMB Circular A-21 or A-122. Disbursement of funds is contingent upon an approved Interagency Service Agreement or Standard Contract.

WEDNESDAY: Bands in this town are more promiscuous with their pseudonyms than dance producers. Tonight at the Floristree Space, a bunch of them take a break from their day jobs to go solo or regroup. Theecaterpillarinchworm is one of the gentle folkies from Madagascar. The Moonstealingproject is one of the laptop experimentalists from Wzt Hearts. Homebody is a couple of expats from dark folkies Long Live Death and the aforementioned Madagascar. Carbonic and A Wonderful are from outta town, so if they feature members of other bands, you got us.
THURSDAY: Its muggy as hell outside right now, but in the world of darkest metal its always the middle of a bleak-ass Norwegian winter. Xeper is from Baltimore but conjures the frozen blizzard winds of black metal without all the corpse paint and Nazi silliness at the Sidebar with Rosetta, Day Without Dawn, and Make Your Stand. Deep-fried noise-and-drums dudes Wzt Hearts make a racket in honor of their new album Heat Chief tonight at the Talking Head along with the solo drone-guitar experiments of Lichens, the free-drifting space rock of the appropriately named Cloudland Canyon, and the cracked improvisations and dark soundscapes of U.W. Owl.
FRIDAY: Emos not necessarily a dirty word, even with all that eyeliner. But, responsible though it may be for junk like Taking Back Sunday, Lifetime did pop hardcore better than anyone back when Fall Out Boy was still in short pants. Even if the idea of Lifetime reforming nearly a decade after it broke up and at the height of emomania leaves a slightly bad taste, the reunion comes to Washingtons 9:30 Club tonight with the Bronx and the Loved Ones. Sand Cats, on the other hand, wouldnt know from emo if it came up and shook its skinny ass in their electronic/performance art/rock n roll faces tonight at Wham City with synth mangler Triangle Forest.
SATURDAY: We big-up a lot of hip-hop here at City Paper, its true. But, you ask, where are the weirdos? Wheres the stuff barely holding onto the skin of rap by its grubby fingernails? Wheres the hip-hop that sounds like someone DJing sandpaper discs with Hugo Ball freestyling on top? Well, tonight local B-boys Jones and Height plus Bow N Arrow and Plural bring askew beats and slanted rhymes to Wham City. Meanwhile downtown, theres bassist Vattel Cherry, leading two trios at An die Musik. The first is an exploratory journey into what An die worryingly calls world music. The second pushes jazz and improvisation until they bend and warp with the help of pianist Lafayette Gilchrist. And if that dont thrill you, then we quit.
SUNDAY: How high is your tolerance for sugary Japanese pop? Very high like ours? Puffy Ami Yumi is the only Japanese girl guitar gang with any sort of profile in the U.S., and certainly the only one with its own Cartoon Network showand if you like your power pop so wet and shiny that it makes Avril Lavigne sound like Jad Fair, then you know all about it. We just hope the two Puffy girls play their awesome song that jacks the riff from the Whos Wont Get Fooled Again tonight at the 9:30 Club with Tally Hall. If you prefer a little more chaos and a little less kawaii in your rock, then theres local Thank You at the Talking Head with Animal Hospital and Joel Price, scrabbling at their instruments in a way thats more Japanoise than J-pop.
MONDAY: Yeah, its Monday. Were not happy about it either. So relax with a chill-out night at Wham City. Of course, your idea of chill out needs to include free-form ambient noise made with cracked effects pedals, a mess of FX, and some instruments you can actually find at Guitar Center courtesy of Locks. Theres also the New Zealand-style jangle pop of Pagoda, if you need some of those pesky notes and chords and stuff.
TUESDAY: Few bands have carefully navigated the old cliché of the personal being political better than Winnipegs Weakerthans. John K. Samsons roots in anarchist pop-punks Propagandhi are now a distant memory, as speed and distortion have been traded for plucky guitars, tired rants for contemplative character sketches. The band plays the 9:30 Club tonight with the New Amsterdams and Raising the Fawn.
WEDNESDAY: Low Moda rides a low-slung, string-driven postpunk groove, drawing on the pulsations of dub, the repetition of Krautrock, and wearing the death mask of goth. San Serac rides a techno groove, drawing on the pulsations of electro, the repetition of house music, and wearing the death mask of disco. And Human Host gives groove a good poke in the eye, all tonight at the Talking Head.
IN THE WINGS: Whether pioneering whatever-rock with Slint and Tortoise or slumming with Billy Corgan, David Pajos guitar is an immediately recognizable thing, picking slow, clear, ringing arpeggios in love with their own echo. The M man brings himself and his instrument to the Talking Head Aug. 2 for a solo show in advance of his new album. (For more info call [410] 962-5588 or visit www.talkingheadclub.com.)

Sir Alex Ferguson admits he is deliberating over two or three possible team selections for Monday night's do-or-die derby with Manchester City.
The United boss knows how he wants his team to play but has a variety of options in terms of personnel as he plots the downfall of Roberto Mancini's strongly-fancied Blues.
With decisions to be made in defence, midfield and attack, the line-up will be eagerly awaited ahead of kick-off for what is certain to be a pivotal match in the title race, one way or another.
"We've been working on two or three things in the last couple of days and I've got two or three options," admitted Sir Alex. "Hopefully, I'll get it right.
"I just know what we want to do in the game. We've got enough experience and pace in the team, enough good footballers and determination. I think we'll be alright in that respect. The game could be decided by anything, I hope it's not by a bad decision, that's for sure.
"There's focus on both teams to make it a good game. It's important as we're representing the city all over the world. Michel Platini is making an effort to come to the game. It creates a certain occasion and we want to represent ourselves the right way."
The manager is under no illusions that the title could be all but lost if City do pick up the three points, even though their next assignment looks difficult on paper - away at Newcastle - before the Reds kick off at home to Swansea.
"I think City probably would win it," he added. "Yes. I think, with two games left, they'd have a great chance."

The San Diego Metropolitan Transit System (MTS) selected Apollo Video Technology's RoadRunner MRH DVR and back-end management software for its fleet of transit vehicles. In the first phase of the project, Apollo Video will replace existing transit surveillance systems in 246 of MTS fixed-route buses and deploy wireless back-end equipment providing fleet-wide data and real-time video streaming.
The new installation will include Apollo Video's digital video recorders (DVRs), interior and exterior cameras, motion detectors and wireless local area network (LAN) equipment.
The contract also includes Vehicle Information Management software, which will supply MTS with vehicle status reports, event logs, on-demand video clip retrieval and automated downloads of event video.
MTS will utilize the MRH8 and MRH12 series DVRs equipped with seven to nine cameras based on the specific bus types. Each camera system supplied by Apollo Video will provide MTS with state-of-the-art Wi-Fi and GPS capabilities, allowing transit officials to monitor real-time video and location data.
To capture potential incidents occurring inside the transit yards overnight, MTS requested that Apollo Video include motion detection capabilities to trigger the system to start recording at the first sign of movement. The passive infrared sensor detects any movement inside the vehicle when the bus is turned off.

George Stevens, an American cinematographer, director, writer, producer, and even actor, is known to have been a brilliant craftsman that helped shaped Hollywood into the great movie capital it is today. His tender touch with actors, as well as his talented gift for film composition, put him at the top during his time of employment. His three Best Director Oscar nominations and two wins, really show the true merit of his work.
George Cooper Stevens was born December 18, 1904, in Oakland, California to stage actors Landers Stevens and Georgie Cooper. Growing up, he was entangled in the dramatic arts, touring around with his parents and his two brothers. As well, at age five he debuted on the stage of his parents' company, Ye Liberty Playhouse. Later on, he appeared in two movies, "The Tigress" (1915) and "Whispers" (1920). Stevens also became interested in photography. Upon his move to Hollywood at age seventeen, he found a job at the Hal Roach Studios as an assistant cameraman. Often times, he was asked to help film Laurel and Hardy shorts such as his first, "Roughest Africa" (1923), as well as others like "Slipping Wives" (1927) and "Below Zero" (1930). He was also involved in feature films, including the westerners "No Man's Law" (1925) and "The Devil's Horse" (1926). The cinematographer's final short was "Flirting in the Park" (1933), but he went on to shoot three more works after: the documentaries "George Stevens World War II Footage" (1946), "George Stevens: D-Day to Berlin" (1994), and finally, "D-Day: The Color Footage" (1999).
Eventually, Stevens also began writing, beginning with the comedy short "Doctor's Orders" (1930). He wrote a total of fourteen shorts, the last one being "Grin and Bear It" in 1933. He only helped write two more times after, for the comedy "Nitwits" in 1935 and the biographical historical drama "The Greatest Story Ever Told" in 1965. Additionally, Stevens started to direct pictures, his debut being the comedy short "Ladies Last" (1930). In 1931, he was dismissed from Hal Roach and moved to Universal, then RKO Studios, to direct more comedy shorts, even though he later admitted to have loathed two-reel comedies. Stevens directed a number of shorts like "Call a Cop!" (1931), "Boys Will Be Boys" (1932), and "Strictly Fresh Yeggs" (1934), as well as a handful of films such as "A Divorce Courtship" (1933), "The Cohens and Kellys in Trouble" (1933), and "Ocean Swells" (1934), before being promoted by RKO in 1934 to directing almost strictly full length features.
Following several medium-budget movies, Stevens got his big break with the Katharine Hepburn "A" picture, "Alice Adams" (1935). The director created his first classic the following year, the sixth Astaire-Rogers musical installation, "Swing Time" (1936). His past camera experience lent well to the overall atmosphere of the picture, allowing emotion to be injected into film's every movement. He again directed Hepburn in his subsequent feature, "Quality Street" (1937). Producing and directing 1938's romantic comedy "Vivacious Lady", Stevens' career only got better from that point on. His succeeding films included the classic Rudyard Kipling poem based war adventure "Gunga Din" (1939), romantic drama "Penny Serenade" (1941), and comedies, "Woman of the Year" (1942), "The Talk of the Town" (1942), and "The More the Merrier" (1943). All of these, with the exception of "Woman of the Year" (1942), were also produced by Stevens.
Enlisting in the Army Signal Corps from 1944 to 1946, the director was in charge of the combat motion picture unit. He filmed the Normandy landings, as well as the liberations of Paris and the Nazi death camp Dachau, to such great painstaking precision and with such extensive personal emotion that he was awarded the Legion of Merit for his services. Much of the evidence he captured in his pictures was used during the Nuremburg Trials, and some of his footage is saved in the United States National Film Registry. After the war, Stevens produced and directed his very last RKO and semi-comedic effort, "I Remember Mama" (1948), and then relocated to Paramount for one of his most famous, "A Place in the Sun" (1951). It was a contemporary adaptation of Theodore Dreiser's "An American Tragedy" and won the director his first Oscar win.
During the fifties, Stevens' movie releases became far less and in between. The decade only saw four additional films: the drama "Something to Live For" (1952), his second Best Director Academy Award winning feature, "Shane" (1953), the three hour epic based off of Edna Ferber's Texas themed novel, "Giant" (1956), and America's first picture that dealt with the Holocaust, "The Diary of Anne Frank" (1959). The sixties brought only one unsuccessful movie, "The Greatest Story Ever Told" (1965), which followed the life of Jesus Christ. His final film, Elizabeth Taylor's "The Only Game in Town" (1970), also proved to be a critical and box-office failure. Stevens died on March 8, 1975 in Lancaster, California. For his achievements, he was bestowed a Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award from the Oscars, a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Directors Guild of America, and a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Naomi Campbell to star in a new reality TV show, 'The Face'
Naomi Campbell is set to star in a new modelling reality TV show called The Face. She will follow in the footsteps of her fellow 'supers' Elle Macpherson and Tyra Banks by becoming one of three famous models (two are yet to be announced) to help mentor up-and-coming young models on a television series.
The series will air on America's Oxygen network, and will see Campbell coach a group of unknown models throughout various assignments including photo shoots, runway shows and commercials for some very well-known brands. In the end, one girl will win and be crowned The Face of a major national brand.
Sound familiar? That's because Oxygen are the same guys behind the very successful America's Next Top Model series.
"I am looking forward to working in partnership with Oxygen and Shine America to discover the next beautiful face of the modelling world, Naomi Campbell said in a press release. "With The Face the audience will get a real insider's look at this exciting industry that has been so good to me. One lucky girl will become the face of a major brand."
The show is set to launch on the small screen in 2013. I wonder who the other two superstar mentors will be? Claudia Schiffer perhaps, or Christy Turlington. Who would you like to see grace our TV screens?

2008 OPEN FORUM Abstracts
Introduction: Preceptors are a vital link in the successful training and orientation of the Respiratory Therapist. Preceptor training has been associated with improving the student RT experience and the orientation process for new employees. A good experience with a preceptor can improve retention and contribute to recruitment. On-line education is a convenient and efficient way to deliver training material, and is a mode of learning often preferred by adult learners.
Objective: The purpose of this pilot study was to examine the use of an on-line preceptor training module (PTM) to better prepare the preceptor for their role by examining attitudes, confidence, knowledge and beliefs.
Methods: The population for the pilot study was RTs employed at a large urban medical center. Designated preceptors were invited to participate in the on-line preceptor training. Participants in the study took a pre-test which observed their attitudes toward precepting, knowledge of adult learning principles, preceptor beliefs, and teaching and evaluation skills. After viewing the PTM via on on-line course management system, participants then completed a post-test to evaluate changes in attitudes, knowledge and beliefs. Descriptive statistics and t-tests were used to analyze the pre and post-test data.
Results: A total of 16 preceptors participated in the pilot study. Pre and post-test scores related to the preceptors' attitudes, confidence and understanding the role of the preceptor were statistically significant (p< .05), showing improvement or a more positive rating. Improvement in knowledge of adult learning principles was also reflected in the post-test scores. Participants agreed that there were challenges and barriers associated with precepting a student or new orientee. For example, greater than 50% stated there were challenges to providing effective feedback and facilitating reflection to evaluate the learning process. Participants found the online PTM useful and a convenient way to improve the preceptor experience and better understand their role.
Conclusion: The results of the pilot study suggest that on-line training has the potential to improve the preceptor's experience, while providing the preceptor freedom to learn at the pace and place of their choosing. Addressing perceived challenges and barriers to preceptors and outlining steps for providing effective evaluation and feedback are areas that should be addressed in preceptor training.

Akron ranked No. 79, Zips chase rare winning season
The Orlando Sentinel's college insider Matt Murschel has ranked all 128 Football Bowl Subdivision teams in the country entering the 2014 season. The Sentinel staff will take a closer look at a new team daily, counting backward from No. 128 to our projected No. 1 team.
Today at No 79: Akron Zips
Coach: Terry Bowden (6-18, entering third season; 146-80-2 overall)
2013 record: 5-7 (4-4 in Mid-American Conference, tied for third in East Division)
Look back: After three straight one-win seasons, the 2013 season gave Akron fans a reason to be optimistic about the future. The Zips won five games last year for the first time since 2008, which is big news for a program that hasn't had a winning season in close to a decade. It didn't look like the team would improve much after Akron opened the 2013 campaign by losing six of its first seven games. However, the Zips finished strong and won four of their final five games.
Offensive starters returning: 8
Offensive starters lost: 4
Defensive starters returning: 6
Defensive starters lost: 6
Key losses: TE Jerome Lewis, RT Zenel Demhasaj, LG Henry Orelus, LT Jarrod Pughsley, DE C.J. James, DT Moses McCray, DE Albert Presley, S Anthony Holmes, CB Malachi Freeman
Top returnees: QB Kyle Pohl, RB Jawon Chisholm, WR L.T. Smith, NG Cody Grice, LB Justin March, LB Jatavis Brown, SS Bre' Ford, FS Johnny Robinson
Strengths: Akron returns eight starters from an offense that averaged close to 20 points and 342 yards per game. Quarterback Kyle Pohl passed for 2,438 yards and 14 touchdowns as a sophomore and his development will be crucial to the team's success during the upcoming season. Running back Jawon Chisholm led the team in rushing (869) and could crack the 1,000-yard mark this season. The Zips return the majority of their top receivers, including L.T. Smith (428 yards/3 TDs), Zach D'Orazio (567 yards/4 TDs) and Fransohn Bickley (407 yards/2 TDs).
Akron finished third in the Mid-American Conference in total defense last season, with the Zips allowing just 397 yards per game. Much of that success was fueled by a stout rushing defense that held teams to less than 165 yards per game.
Weaknesses: Akron loses three of its five starters on the offensive line, leaving the entire left side to be rebuilt during the offseason. The defensive line only returns one starter — nose guard Cody Grice — from a group that finished third in the Mid-American Conference in total defense last season. While the rush defense was a big reason why the Zips only allowed 397 yards per game, the pass defense struggled last season, allowing more than 230 yards per game. The secondary brings back veterans Bre' Ford and Johnny Robinson, but it lacks depth.
Outlook: Akron won five games, but only one of those wins was against a team with a winning record (Toledo, 7-5). The program is still very much in flux, but it appears Bowden has things moving in the right direction. The offense will have to bail out the defense, especially during early road games against Penn State and Pittsburgh.

[ca-tf] last version of the Certification Proposal
Filiz Yilmaz filiz at ripe.net
Thu Oct 2 13:29:59 CEST 2008
Hi CA TF members, As promised, after consultation with Ruediger and Nigel, regarding Ruediger's comments on the previous version, attached please find a new version of the Certification Proposal. Main differences from the previous one are the following: - This one talks about "contractual relationship status" instead of "membership status" for LIRs to be able to maintain the service they receive from the NCC. - It sets a specific validity period for certificates (up to 18 months). - There is an additional paragraph at the beginning now, elaborating on that this policy is only limited to LIR PA allocations (the reason for that is explained in Rationale already). Please pass your objections (if any) to this version's wording until 10 October 2008, Friday, next week. Support mails will be appreciated but I will take silence as consent :). After that I will proceed with the publication of it as a formal proposal, when I will have just enough but limited time before RIPE 57. Please note by that time we will have only two weeks before the meeting in Dubai. In other words, to have the proposal as a formal one as announced in RIPE 56, it is very important to stick to the deadline above, 10 October 2008. It will also be good to have it discussed for at least a week before it is presented during the meeting. Kind regards, Filiz Yilmaz Policy Development Officer RIPE NCC -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

angular frequencyLine breaks: an¦gu|lar fre|quency
Definition of angular frequency in English:
The frequency of a steadily recurring phenomenon expressed in radians per second. A frequency in hertz can be converted to an angular frequency by multiplying it by 2π. (Symbol: ω)
Example sentences
- Ic] is the angular frequency (in radians per second) and f is the linear frequency (in hertz).
- A simple calculation then shows that kr = mv, or that the angular frequency, w is just sqrt (k/m).
- This is equivalent to the statement that the outer membrane becomes increasingly transparent for oscillating electric fields when the angular frequency of the oscillation exceeds a value given by the inverse of the charging time.

Sad Keanu Meme Inspires Reeves To Write a Book
Because no Internet meme is validated unless it comes out in printed form, Keanu Reeves has used the uber popular "Sad Keanu" meme as inspiration for a book. "Sad Keanu" hit last summer courtesy of a glorious paparazzi photo and the folks over at Reddit. Strangely enough, it took Reeves until October to find out about his own memetastic existence.

Teachers and school pupils play an important part in CiS. Contact the Education secretary Dr John Ling if you have any questions, or would like to contribute to the resources on this page.
2013 National Curriculum Review
A CiS response to the recent consultation regarding reform of the UK national curriculum can be found here: CiS National Curriculum Response.
Church of England "God and the Big Bang" project
CiS has recently enjoyed working with The Church of England on a series of science – faith day conferences in schools. The conferences have been piloted in C of E schools in the Manchester Diocese with the hope of rolling the project out nationwide in the future.
The conferences have featured three or more Christians with backgrounds in science or engineering and the sessions have included a key note lecture on the compatibility of science and Christianity, an interview with one of the speakers, a fun science demonstration session, a practical session for the students and a panel Q&A session with all of the contributors.
One of these conferences was reported in the local press and the article can be found here. If you would like more information about these events please contact the Development Officer.
