Cell C draws R1 Million winner in Dreamcall promotion
Geniswa Jackson, an unemployed mother of one, became the first millionaire in Cell C's DREAMCALL promotion when she entered the competition on Tuesday and found that her number was the lucky number drawn for that day.
Geniswa Jackson and her husband, Fumbathile Sabani
Jackson, who is an avid churchgoer, said that her prayers did not fall on deaf ears. "Deep down, I've always known that God had something special planned for me. However, I didn't expect him to answer my prayers in this way. They say good things come to those who wait upon the Lord. I feel truly blessed."
Eastern Cape's newest millionaire said she would invest part of her winnings into a fund to ensure her son's future education is taken care off and also plans to give money to those who have stood by her during difficult times. "As an unemployed person, I would not have survived had it not been for my extended family, my supportive husband and my church. I will donate some funds to my community church and to a charity home that is very close to my heart."
Cell C launched the DREAMCALL promotion on 31 October 2010 to provide customers the chance of winning more than R2,6 million in prizes, including a top prize of R1 million in cash, daily.
"We were confident that DREAMCALL would change a lot of lives," commented Cell C's Executive Head of Marketing, Simon Camerer. "Today, we have proof."
He said that the promotion was just another way Cell C was trying to improve livelihoods and enhance lifestyles. "Cell C wants to be the possibilities provider to its customers and I believe the door to endless possibilities has just opened for Geniswa.
Cell C customers who want to enter the promotion must SMS 'Dream' to 14567 or call 14567 from a Cell C number and SMS or call once a day to see if their number was drawn.

Facebook and text messages seen as most effective GOTV reminders
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Generation Opportunity today released data specifically on Independent voters from their comprehensive Virginia-specific survey of young adults ages 18-29. The poll found that 72 percent of Independent Millennials in Virginia plan to vote in the presidential election, only 30 percent believe the country is headed in the right direction, and 81 percent say key life decisions have been delayed by the poor national economy. The poll also found that of the "Get Out The Vote" (GOTV) reminder tools that will have an impact on Independent young voter turnout in Virginia, Facebook ranked first at 53 percent and text messages ranked second at 45 percent. Only 13 percent of Virginia's Independent young adults thought a phone call would be effective – a clear indication that smartphones and other mobile devices have reached a point of heavy market penetration within the demographic.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110805/DC48058LOGO)
Generation Opportunity has over 4 million fans on Facebook and direct grassroots engagement with over a quarter million young Americans. The organization has over 100,000 followers across the Commonwealth of Virginia developed through social media and grassroots activities. In addition to releasing Virginia poll results, Generation Opportunity has launched the Pledge to GO Vote Campaign aimed at further increasing the already growing enthusiasm and interest among young adults to participate in the presidential election. Generation Opportunity is encouraging its Virginia supporters, their friends, and all those within their networks to Pledge to GO Vote. Read more about the initiative and sign the pledge here at GenerationOpportunity.org/vote.
Watch the video at bit.ly/PledgeToGOVote.

"Throughout the Commonwealth of Virginia, Independent young adults are making their final decisions on which presidential candidate is best prepared to implement a policy agenda that allows the economy to create more meaningful, full-time jobs. Independent voters in Virginia have a tradition of embracing candidates that offer pro-business policies regardless of party background," said Paul T. Conway, President of Generation Opportunity and former Chief of Staff of the United States Department of Labor under Secretary Elaine L. Chao. "But in a tough economy, they know that candidates who advocate national policies such as deep defense cuts, higher taxes, and more regulations are out of sync with the best interests of Virginia and the overwhelming need to employ more young people and protect those who are already working."
Mr. Conway served as a Deputy Secretary of Health and Human Resources for the Commonwealth of Virginia and worked extensively on issues related to health care reform, welfare reform, and other policy efforts designed to empower individuals through opportunity while ending cycles of dependency on government. He also served as Chief of Staff of the United States Office of Personnel Management under Director Kay Coles James.
For Generation Opportunity, the polling company, inc./WomanTrend, conducted a statewide online survey of 566 Virginia adults ages 18-29 between July 27 – August 13, 2012. Randomly selected online opt-in panel participants were sent an invitation to the survey via email, which included a secure link to the online questionnaire. Quotas were used to ensure the survey was representative of the larger 18-29 year old statewide population with regard to race, region, and gender. The data were NOT weighted. The overall sampling margin of error for the survey is ±4.4% at a 95% confidence interval, meaning that the data obtained would not differ more than 4.4 percentage points in 95 out of 100 similar samples obtained. Independent voters comprised 16% of the total sample.
Generation Opportunity is the largest non-profit, non-partisan organization in the United States engaging and mobilizing young Americans (ages 18-29) on important economic issues facing the nation. Since its launch in June of 2011, Generation Opportunity has operated on a combined strategy of advanced social media tactics and field tactics to reach young Americans across the country.
Generation Opportunity is actively organizing young adults across America through grassroots tactics, voter registration, and voter turnout efforts in states like Ohio, Virginia, Maine, North Carolina, Michigan, and Florida, engaging over a quarter million young adults. The organization's social media platforms have amassed a total fan base of more than 4 million. Facebook pages post links to relevant articles and reports from sources ranging from the federal Government Accountability Office (GAO), to The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Brookings Institution, The Wall Street Journal, The Huffington Post, and The Heritage Foundation.

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

I bought a mini mash IPA recipe from More Beer about 2 years ago. Due to some crazy circumstances the ingredients (except the yeast) have been sitting in garage for almost 2 years. The ingredients are:
8 lbs of ultralight in a sealed plastic package
Grain mix of Munich, 2-row, crystal, and carapils in a sealed plastic bag
Cascade, willamette, and liberty hop pellets all in sealed plastic pouches
Is there any chance these are all still good?
It's worth a try. I had a kit that was over a year old and it turned out to be fantastic!
if the grains were cracked and the hops not frozen - in my opinion they will be of little use.
the light DME should be useable
simplified signature:
beer, wine, cheese in various stages of production
I'm sure it will be fine. It's not like you have anything to lose right?
I would get a fresh pack of yeast too

The shenanigans of backstage. Or, we're excited to introduce a few new exclusives to our ongoing Pledge campaign. For one of them, we'll (wake up, and) do a song for you backstage at one of our EP release shows this January.
More details, and caffeine, here.

New Video
New update video is coming out later this week for pledgers. Or, how we learned to stop worrying and kill our bassist.
0 Comments | Posted by admin in Uncategorized
We are thrilled to welcome Eva Walsh to the band.
Eva is originally from Minnesota (which means she is nice, obviously), where she started playing violin at age 5. She began corrupting her classical training in college in Nashville, and since then has been pummeling her violin in Boston's underground folk-punk scene. She's a total pro, an amazing player and a really good person who totally fits into our strange little world. We're so thrilled to have her.
Next week's Pledge update video will be dedicated to this transition, and we'll rope Eva into introducing herself. Also next week we'll be introducing some new exclusives – including the chance to have some backstage shenanigans at our release shows – in time for the holidays. Pledge here!

Folks, just hearing the final versions of these new tunes, and can't tell you how excited we are to share them with you. That's all. Happy Monday.

Fall Pledge Campaign
With multiple down-to-the-wire pledges last night, you met the goal for the Fall Pledge Drive. THANK YOU. We can now pay our producer and stop bugging you for a while. Now we know how public radio feels…
We'll stay quiet about the Pledge Campaign for a few weeks, and quietly keep working on AccessPass videos and InnerCirclePass videos before we introduce some new exclusives next month.
For now, again, THANK YOU. We are a very happy and grateful band. To celebrate, here's the best muppet.

Last Day
It's the last day in our Fall Pledge Drive, which means we get to stop annoying you with these posts, but it also means temporary exclusives – a mug, a chance to play video games with us, etc. – go away after today. We're almost at our goal, just need one more push!
And if you get an InnerCirclePass, you can see exclusive, unreleased songs recorded in random places like very yellowy warehouses (below).

Jenée's Goodbye
As we've been saying, our our violinist/saxophonist/
My Dear Friends and Music Lovers,
As some of you may know, I am having a baby very, very soon. In fact, by the time you read this I may have already become a mother. It is a very exciting time for my husband and myself, although a little nerve wracking at times. We are overly joyful to be starting a family and are so thrilled to be welcoming a little bundle of boy.
While this is a most wonderful time for me, it has also meant making very difficult and life changing decisions. After many, many emotional nights and heartfelt conversations, I have decided to step down from my position as the "badass chick" in Kingsley Flood. Let me tell you, as can the band, my husband, extended family and friends, it was not an easy decision for me and took many months to come to. This coming January would have been my 5-year anniversary joining the band, which is no small feat; especially if you have smelled the KF guys?
The reality is that as much as I would love to continue rocking, I will soon have the most important responsibility in the world: taking care of a helpless human being that will rely on me for almost everything (I know what you are thinking, I was already doing that but with five grown men J). The conclusion I have come to is that it would not be fair for any parties involved if I continued to be a member of Kingsley Flood. My baby needs a full-time mommy, my husband needs a full-time partner, and the band needs a full-time member. What do I need? I need to have peace of mind and most likely won't be able to have that if I am out on the road all the time crying in the back of the van.
I would like to take this opportunity to reminisce about some of the most memorable moments I've had while in the band, non-musically speaking. Let's see, the time that Travis hit Naseem in one shot with a BB to the butt in the dead of night was nothing less than priceless. There was the time that a weirdo drunk guy in Pittsburgh couldn't get enough of me or my fiddle and I was forced to hide in the van. I believe the quote from the gentleman was, "I never thought I'd like the fiddle, but that bitch can sign my face" (the gentleman had been trying to get me to autograph his face with permanent marker all night long). Oh, and hanging out at Josh Hartnett's mansion in Minneapolis until 5 am was pretty cool too.
Musically speaking, opening up for Styx in Washington D.C. was quite the experience, especially since we had our first (and last?) heckler who wanted us and everyone else off the stage so Styx could start playing; they were scheduled to start in 3 hours. Playing Vincent's in Worcester with a 6-person band crammed into a space of maybe 16-square feet made you really appreciate your band mates' ability to maneuver, go with the punches, and use of deodorant (the place is also filled with taxidermied animals, including cats, and seriously makes the Rhumbline in Gloucester look like a cathedral). For me though, opening the Newport Folk Festival on the main stage takes the cake. Having read about, studied in college and graduate school, and attended the festival, it couldn't get any more real and humbling for me.
I will miss meeting new people (fans, stage crew, journalists, other musicians, producers) and making new friends. I will miss traveling to places I probably would never end up at on my own, e.g. Toledo, Ohio and Texas. I will miss playing, arranging, composing, and creating music with five amazing musicians. I will miss hanging out (a lot) with five guys that looked out for me and had my back always, who I would call my brothers. I will miss everything that comes with being in this band. I will miss striving towards and becoming a better musician, which includes working on fine-tuning my ear, finding my own sound(s), harmonizing with one to three other voices, and of course perfecting Jenethel (that's my Ethel Merman impression for those of you unfortunate enough to have never heard it).
At this point, I know that you are all teary eyed and aren't quite sure how you can continue on. Don't despair, Naseem looks really good in cowgirl boots and a little dress. J Seriously though, this isn't the end of the band, nor is it the end of my time playing with them. I am sure that in the future I will be on stage again as a special guest doing what I do best: jumping around, making angry faces, laughing at something funny that has just happened and singing a pretty duet or two.
It's been an amazing journey to say the least and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat. I wish you all well and hope to see you all again at some point in the future!
Until we meet again,
Jenée Morgan Force

(HealthDay News) -- Exercising during the chilly winter months can keep you physically and emotionally healthier. But it's important to prepare for the changes in temperature.
The Texas Heart Institute suggests these cold-weather exercise guidelines:
Gradually train and prepare for cold-weather activities.
When exercising outdoors, dress in layers that you can remove and that pull sweat away from your body.
Wear extra-warm socks, and protect your hands with gloves.
Protect your head and neck with a hat or headband and scarf.
Wear glasses or goggles to protect eyes, reflective gear if outside at night and always protect yourself with sunscreen during the day.
If traveling to a higher altitude, give yourself a few days to adjust before exercising.
Drink plenty of fluids, avoid alcohol and familiarize yourself with symptoms of hypothermia and frostbite.

Finding Your Why Posted by Dora Wallace on July 07, 2014 (self.selfimprovement)
submitted 4 months ago by djwalla
Do you really know what your "Why" is? Why you are here at this moment? What your intentions, for the success of your future, is? Your dreams and goals?
Once you figure out your true "Why", your dreams and your goals, everything will fall into place.
Write down your "Why". You may want to adjust this from time to time, as you learn and grow. Read your intentions, out loud, every day. Believe in them and yourself. Live and breathe your "Why". Be in the right mindset, at all times.
Be stron and ready to face any challenges or obstacles that may occur, while on your road to success. They will happen because life has a way of throwing you a curve ball throughout your journeys. You need to be able to pick yourself up, dust off the dirt, re-evaluate, and move on.
Don't forget to invest in yourself. To help you with your journey, you need to build or develop your skillsets. You need to be, always, in a state of learning to grow.
When you know your true "Why" and have that burning desire, isn't it worth the time, effort, and investment made to make your dreams come true? Isn't it worth it, in order to achieve that level of success to be able to live the life you deserve?
Connect with yourself. Get in tune with yourself. Dig deep within your soul and discover your true "Why". You were meant to prosper.

organicKidz 7pc Stainless Steel Baby Bottle Gift Set with Sippy Cup and Water Bottle - Lavender Dots organicKidzI LOVE this package deal, but I was not thinking about steel being steel, so when I wash with hot water it gets hotttt! And when I put cold milk in it, it gets cooold! I need to put a sock around it until i get a little crocheted cuff made for it so my son can hold it... or put the handles back on it. Anyway, i love it. I feel like its so much safer since I just learned that BPA free plastic cups still have some BPA in it. Im loving this steel cup so my son isnt sucking on carcinogens! Waiting for them to be back in stock so I can buy more!Jun 8,2014
organicKidz 7pc Stainless Steel Baby Bottle Gift Set with Sippy Cup and Water Bottle - Blue Dots organicKidzWe got the Baby Grows Up kit as a shower gift and we love it! Our baby is just starting to move to a sippy cup and he loves it too! The handles work great and the steel bottle has saved the day more than once after he's dropped it! I had to give it 5 stars for everything. It's way easier to clean then some bottles, the quality of the stainless steel feels way better than plastic and the value is amazing when you consider we didn't have to go buy sippy cups!Jun 8,2014
organicKidz Baby and Me Harmony Silver Exclusive Double Rimmed Nursing Cover organicKidzThis nursing cover is a godsend! I watch my baby the whole time and the top never flops down on him like the other cover we had. Plus the top keeps both of us comfortable and the design allows me to nurse whenever and wherever we are without being self-conscious.Jun 8,2014

In preparation, there shouldn't be differences beyond the obvious (cook the fresh, drain the canned, etc), but the flavor will be different. Canned yams are frequently packed in syrup, which will make them very sweet. Some people think that canned goods taste "like can" as well. On the other side, the method used to cook the yams will effect the texture and ...

Beverly Hills Cop II
1987 Directed by Tony Scott
The Heat's Back On!
Axel Foley is back and as funny as ever in this fast-paced sequel to the original smash hit. This time, the Detroit cop heads for the land of sunshine and palm trees to find out who shot police Captain Andrew Bogomil. Thanks to a couple of old friends, Axel's investigation uncovers a series of robberies masterminded by a heartless weapons kingpin, and the chase is on!
Visual Effects
Popular reviewsMore
Eddie Murphy's iconic Axel Foley returns to California in "Beverly Hills Cop II," a sequel that retains the entertaining spirit of the original and increases the style and action. The film is essentially a beat-for-comic-beat retread of its predecessor, but developing character arcs and the film's sense of fun keep things fresh.
Taking the reigns from the original film's director, Martin Brest, Tony Scott delivers a comedy with a slick visual polish, more sex appeal, and stronger action beats. The story finds Foley investigating another series of crimes in Beverly Hills, and, while the raucous laughter of the original is more subdued here, the sequel feels more substantial under Scott's control.
As with the first film, the caper at hand…
I know we have a lot of youngsters here on Letterboxd so I feel the need to brief them on some things that were big in the 80's.
Yo-Yos, Shouty Police Chiefs, Big Hair, A.I.D.S...
and Eddie Murphy!
Here we have a big and brash sequel, directed by Tony Scott, from the days before Mr Murphy became a fan of transexual prostitutes or had started ruining childrens films and was still at the peak of his powers!!
If you have seen the first one...this is pretty much identical but with everything turned up to 11!
With a strangely alluring Brigitte Nielsen, a very young Chris Rock and a 'not at all' terrible cameo from Hugh Heffner and his Playboy Bunnies!
I think Judge Reinhold watches this every night before he cries himself to sleep.
Swearing, boobies, shoulder pads, synth score and Eddie Murphy. This is the basic formula for one of the greatest sequels the 80s ever produced. As iconic as this character is it's the returning supporting characters played by Judge Reinhold, John Ashton, Paul Reiser, Gil Hill and Ronny Cox that really make Axel Foley such a legend.
Lean, brisk and stylish, this sequel is near identical to the original but displays such assuredness and panache that the similarities are forgivable. Jürgen Prochnow and Brigitte Nielsen make superb villains and Tony Scott breathes a more cocksure 80s tone of excess and exuberance into the visuals. Once again, Harlod Faltermeyer's score and soundtrack permeate every aspect of this picture, once again fortifying this…
If you had a brief to make a mighty entertaining, yet cheesy as fuck, ridiculous action flick. You are only going to call Tony Scott.
Or Michael Bay..
There are certain films that we all love, and we will not here a bad word against them.
And this is mine. It's phenomenal. As good as the original, and with more of the best parts.
More free-wheelin' Eddie Murphy, and more Judge Reinhold. It is brilliantly enjoyable, and one of my personal favourites. A massive, unashameable guilty pleasure. Directed in premium 80's action-vision by Tony Scott.
Tony Scott takes over from Martin Brest (hehe..brest) in the directorial chair for Beverly Hills Cop II, which sees the action quotient and visual splendor ramped up, but not at the expense of the comedy. For me, this sequel is equally, maybe more so, as funny as the first film, with Judge Reinhold stealing the show here. Look out for an early appearance from Chris Rock too.
I must have seen this franchise countless times and yet when the words "Directed by Tony Scott" appeared during the opening credits I was actually amazed, and yet I really shouldn't have been, it's a classy looking picture with great visuals and tension building sequences crafted to perfection. It's just a shame that Beverly Hills Cop II is essentially your definitive high concept sequel; everything great about the original squeezed in and this time done bigger, the key word here is NOT bigger it's squeezed. Some of the humour has no place in the scenes, and a lot of it just feels forced so it isn't actually funny, it's at times like this that I'm always reminded of the extras…

I'm not sure whether to give this zero stars or five: the only Tony Scott film I've somehow never seen before may be the laziest, emptiest blockbuster sequel I've experienced in my life - and that list includes Speed 2 and Exorcist II: The Heretic. Everything about it is completely dead, completely lazy: the jokes aren't funny, the action scenes have no energy or excitement, the plot is uninteresting and impenetrable, and even at what was (financially, at least) the peak of his career, Murphy's shtick is already completely threadbare. In other words: it's an absolutely fascinating artifact of 1980s Hollywood.
I didn't realize this was a Tony Scott film until the end, and I don't think it's his best work. Like the first film, I wouldn't say it's bad, although it's a lot jokier than its predecessor. The action is a little more polished here, which is a plus, but the script needed more work.
Rarely feels like a real movie and is basically a less funny rehash of the first one but there are some good Tony Scott shots and the final shootout is pretty fun.
This was an all action thriller-comedy film, with somewhat wonderful story get going. Cute direction from Tony Scott.
This is a formulaic cop investigation movie, it's not that funny, and it's clunky! Tony Scott injects more action into Beverly Hills Cop II, but the story and the jokes are very messy. Axle Foley is back in Beverly Hills and this time it is to help catch the Alphabet bandits? They pursue the bad guys by car, foot, and cement truck. Every chase scene is a mess. Guns are shot off without care for civilians and nobody can drive straight. Oh, and there is the old fruit stand to get knocked over too. This is Tony Scott in all his Top Gun glory and it's just as bad.
One too many in my mind. The idea of a cop from the hood in Poshville was already past its sell by date. Seems tame and lacked anything original.
I haven't slept a wink in more than 39 hours straight (no particular reason, just kind of forgot to), so naturally what does my brain tell me is the most important thing in the world to do right now?
Watch the Beverly Hills Cop trilogy. Naturally. (Minus the third one, of course.)
And you know what? It was worth every single one of the extra 207 minutes of sleep deprivation in my life. Man, so good. Eddie Murphy is great (although his laugh is pretty weird), Judge Reinhold can have my babies, and the eighties were apparently completely awesome. Needless to say, I'm a fan.
There. Now having said that, I'm thinking I should finally go to sle... *zzzzzzzxk*
This sequel is basically the same as the first, and it's just as fun too, but seeing as it's so much like the first, I couldn't rate it higher. It could have been better. I liked it, though, and if you liked the original this one's fun too.
It felt a lot longer than it should be.

The Galaxy Nexus launched with rather little accessory support from Samsung. Recently, they (finally) released a GPS mount, and now the pogo desktop dock has hit the store and is available for purchase. What's special about a pogo dock compared to a normal dock? This dock uses pogo pins - which match up to the three metal dots on the side of the GNexus - to charge the phone, rather than a normal charging port.
Acer just revealed their newest budget smartphone, and unfortunately details are pretty light at the moment. What they have told us: it's going to ship with Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich), a 3.7" screen, 5MP rear shooter with LED flash, and NFC support. As you can see below, it will also ship in 3 colors: Sakura Pink, Alpine White, and Cat's-eye Black. Oh, and "the onscreen display style varies with the external color, making each smartphone a unique fashion statement."
No word on further hardware specs or when/where the phone will launch, but the phone will be displayed at the Acer Pod in the Google Android Booth at MWC - presumably they'll be sharing more details there.
I'm not sure how season two of Fact Checkers Unit escaped our attention back in January, but thanks to Samsung's official blog which highlighted this hilarious series today, we now know better. And let me tell you, if you haven't seen any of the new episodes yet, you're in for a treat.
Fact Checkers Unit started as a short film with Bill Murray, then turned into a web series (Hulu has the first season episodes as well), and thanks to Samsung, MTV, SXM Entertainment, and Moxie Pictures has now reached season two.
Just under a week after receiving almost unprecedented support from the Android community to fund the purchase of new build servers, the CM team has begun pumping out CM9 nightlies for a handful of devices. There's no question - the CM team is moving quickly, and the release of so many nightlies in such a short time span is exciting, to say the least.
Koushik Dutta, in a Google+ post earlier this evening, expressed appreciation, confirming that CyanogenMod "was able to purchase 3 top of the line, ridiculously geared, build servers," which will soon have an automatic build schedule.
Adding to the heap of pre-MWC goodies we've seen lately, NEC decided to show off three of their new Android-powered phones today in Japan, and if nothing else, the devices look interesting.
The first thing that jumps out is the strange gizmo on the far left – it appears to have 2 displays back to back (when folded), and is labeled as the "best cloud device," hinting at easier cloud connectivity.
MWC is still a few days away, and we're already starting to get some pretty great information on the devices that will shape the mobile electronics world in 2012.
Adding to the list of pre-MWC news items, the Italian blog Telefonino.net has posted a series of videos and photos, showcasing LG's complete Android lineup for 2012, from the LG Optimus 4X HD (which we mentioned yesterday) to the Optimus 3D MAX, to the Optimus LTE.
Update #1: According to ASUS' Twitter, the Android 4.0 update should begin rolling out in the U.S. tomorrow, February 24th. Yay!
Update #2: ASUS UK confirmed the same date.
After numerous delays and much confusion (mostly due to ASUS Singapore being more out of touch with reality than other regional divisions), ASUS finally started the Ice Cream Sandwich over-the-air update process for the original Transformer TF101 today.
The official ASUS Facebook account stated that the OTA with version number 18.104.22.168 is going to be available in Taiwan first, followed by other regions "soon after." Hopefully, that means the rest of the world will be able to enjoy ICS within the next few days, barring any unexpected issues.
Droid X users, Motorola and Verizon haven't forgotten about you; not completely, at least. You may not be getting Ice Cream Sandwich (officially, anyway), but Big Red is pushing one hell of a bug-fix update (we spotted it last week) to your device right now.
The OTA update brings fixes to a whole slew of issues that DX users have been dealing with for far too long:
Over the Air Updates
Those still waiting for a hot deal on Samsung's gargantuan Galaxy Note are in luck – AT&T is offering the Note at 50% off for new or add-a-line customers if you click through a special link that enables the discount.
To take advantage of the deal, customers need only to head over to AT&T's site, choose the Samsung Galaxy Note for a new or add-a-line contract (it'll show the full price at this point - just keep on trucking), and continue with checkout.

"A quick reminder that today's exam is an individual assignment. That is, there is no collaborating with your group members during the exam."This announcement halted the conversations in the room, and I was met with more than a few puzzled faces as I passed out the exam. Not overly surprising given that this focus on working individually on the exam is in direct contrast to what the students have been asked to do every other time they walked into the classroom up until that point. Plus, the tables cannot be reconfigured in this particular room, so the students were doing their best to ignore each other at tables designed to foster collaboration.
Time to rethink the exam format.
Two weeks prior to the second exam, the students submitted their vote in response to an exit ticket question:
Yes or No: Should we approach Exam #2 as a take-home exam (individual attempt) and use class time on 11/5 to collaborate on the same questions with your group (group bonus attempt)?The vote was a unanimous "Yes." The definitive response from the students surprised me initially; they raised concerns and asked a number of questions prior to deciding that we should vote. Stepping back and reflecting on the structure of our class, the decision to incorporate a collaborative attempt at the exam questions makes complete sense. It aligns with how we approach each class meeting: give it a try on your own and then collaborate with your group to see if you, collectively, can come up with something better.
Even then, I wasn't sure anyone would actually show up to class for the group attempt!
Not only did the students show up for the group attempt, they got right to work, and the whole room was filled with conversation. I overheard quite a few comments that fit in the categories of "Oh I didn't even think of that!" and "That is a possibility too, but now we have to figure out which one is the best approach." I wandered around the room for a few minutes just observing before groups took me up on my role as an available resource. It was one of the most productive class periods all semester. Not only were students looking back at the exam they already took, they were analyzing and discussing its contents with each other! Most students walked away with a better understanding of the answers than I could ever convey in an exam score or feedback (which, by the way, took the pressure off of me in terms of grading the individual exams as quickly as possible - added bonus!).
I use an approach that is similar to the one outlined by Maryellen Weimer in her Faculty Focus post on the benefits of group exams and quizzes; the group attempt at the exam is offered as a debriefing activity after the individual attempts are submitted. The group attempt for our second exam was framed as a "bonus" opportunity. For groups who collaborated successfully (scored 80% and above), the contributing members received bonus points, awarded on a sliding scale, that added to the score earned on their individual attempt. This approach is very much in line with the items that topped the students' "wish list" for group work compiled at the beginning of the semester: class time will be allocated for group work, there will be accountability for individual preparation, and group activities will provide opportunities for group members to pool their various strengths. All eight groups scored at least 80% on the group attempt, so everyone earned some bonus points for their efforts.
Barkley, Cross, and Major refer to this approach as "Test-Taking Teams," and their book, Collaborative Learning Techniques, offers examples from Psychology, English, Statistics, and Music Composition and Theory. The examples illustrate that a number of variations are likely to work; shorter tests or quizzes, for example, allow for both the individual and group attempts to take place in one class period while another example highlights this activity being used with practice exams as students prepared for a comprehensive placement exam. For those who have access to the journal New Directions for Teaching and Learning, the Winter 2004 issue contains a few articles on group exams as well, including examples from the sciences and engineering.
There is a lot to consider when it comes to group exams - the necessary planning and the pros and cons, generally speaking, are similar to any other group work situation. If collaboration and group work are already a part of your class, then a group exam or quiz might be a reasonable addition. When I inquired about their group exam experience, one group left me with this brief summary:
"Three brains are better than one!"
Achacoso, M., and Svinicki, M. (eds.). (2004, Winter). Alternative strategies for evaluating student learning [Special issue]. New Directions for Teaching and Learning, 100, 1-119.
