Miss Nelson Is Missing! (1977)
by Harry Allard
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
I used this book to teach how good readers predict and confirm their predictions through a think aloud. This book would also, be great to teach guided comprehension skills. This would be a great book to use for readers response.
Miss. Nelson is missing a book about a sweet and kind teacher who doesn't show up to class for a few days, instead in her place is Miss Viola Swamp who was a mean, don't mess around substitute. The class didn't like miss Viola Swamp so the class went to look for their missing teacher with the help with the police. Just when the class thought Miss Nelson is gone forever she comes back just in time and the class stays on their best behavior.
This book is a preschool favorite at the daycare I work at. I absolutely love this book!
Classroom Extension:
1. I would have the kids create a missing poster for Miss Nelson.
2. We would have a group discussion as to why it's important to listen to our teacher.
Classic book series that every child should be exposed to!
This extremely popular book tells the tell of a teacher who has supposedly gone missing. However, what the kids do not understand is that the teacher who has gone missing is actually there own teacher just in disguise as the mean substitute. This book also has a hidden message of how easily a teacher's classroom management can be thrown off by a new routine.
Miss Nelson is a sweet and kind teacher who has a classroom full of students who do not behave. One morning, Miss Nelson does not come to class and in her place arrives the mean Miss Viola Swamp. Miss Swamp doesn't mess around and makes the students get down to business with lots and lots of classwork and homework. There is no talking, no story hour, and NO misbehaving with Miss Swamp. The students enlisted the help of the local police man to help find their missing teacher, but he could not help them. Just when the students were convinced Miss Nelson may be gone forever, Miss Swamp left and Miss Nelson returned. The students were so happy to see Miss Nelson that they remained on their very best behavior.
Personal Reaction:
This is a great story to illustrate how classroom behavior should and should not be whether the classroom teacher is there - or a substitute is filling in for the regular classroom teacher. I love the implied information the author gives the audience about the possibility that Miss Nelson may in fact also be Miss Swamp. The story would be a great conversation starter when talking about classroom behavior and classroom procedures.
Extension Ideas:
1 - Students can create a character analysis for Miss Viola Swamp and one for Miss Nelson to compare and contrast, describing "How she looked", "How she acted", and "Things she said."
2 - Students can create posters (flyers) for the missing Miss Nelson. Students can draw a picture of Miss Nelson, then complete the poster with a description of Miss Nelson and contact information to help report sightings of Miss Nelson.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0395401461, Paperback)
The kids in Room 207 were misbehaving again. Spitballs stuck to the ceiling. Paper planes whizzing through the air. They were the worst-behaved class in the whole school.
So begins this quirky classic, first published in 1977 and still relevant today as a lighthearted reminder to show our appreciation to those we value. The students don't proffer a shred of respect for their good-natured teacher Miss Nelson, but when the witchy substitute Miss Viola Swamp appears on the scene, they start to regret their own wicked ways. James Marshall's scritchy, cartoonish full-color ink and wash illustrations are hilarious. A back-to-school perennial!
(retrieved from Amazon Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:52:50 -0400)
The kids in Room 207 take advantage of their teacher's good nature until she disappears and they are faced with a vile substitute.

OUR TOWN: Graffiti yields object lesson
Date: July 17, 2013
by: Pam Eubanks | Managing Editor
An unusual bit of graffiti became an object lesson for an East County church July 7.
A Star of David was spray painted on an outside wall of Faith United Church of Christ some time around July 4. The pastor discovered it on Friday, July 5, while walking to work from the bus stop.
"I was quite surprised and very curious as to why a Star of David," said the Rev. Brian Bagley-Bonner. "We have had some paint vandalism in the past few months, but never with a religious symbol."
Instead of scrubbing it off right away, the congregation used it as an opportunity to learn. During children's time, the pastor shared with them about the painting and explained it's significance as a symbol for a sister religion.
"This is the Star of David. Remember the story of David and Goliath?" he asked.
The children's eyes lit up as they remembered the Bible story.
Bagley-Bonner continued: "Our faith comes out of Judaism. Jesus was Jewish."
The congregation gathered around the Star of David after the service and remembered when the church building housed a Jewish congregation earlier in its history.
Bagley-Bonner says the graffiti turned out to be an opportunity for the congregation to reflect, learn and celebrate.

New terahertz device could strengthen security by on Fri, 21 Nov 2014 14:12:32 EST:
We are all familiar with the security hassles that accompany air travel. Now a new type of security detection that uses terahertz radiation is looking to prove its promise. Researchers have developed a room temperature, compact, tunable terahertz source that could lead to advances in homeland security and space exploration. Able to detect explosives, chemical agents and dangerous biological substances from safe distances, devices using terahertz waves could make public spaces more secure than ever.

November 24, 2014
New leadership has taken over in Neshoba County. Sheriff Donnie Adkins was sworn in Friday, along with other county officials elected in November 2007.
"Drugs (are) going to be the number one thing that we're really going after," said Adkins. "I believe that if we can get a handle on drugs, we'll also get a handle on other crimes, too."
Three new members of the board of supervisors were sworn in as well.
"We're just going to have to make sure that we keep economic development going in Neshoba County," said District 2 supervisor Kevin Cumberland.
"We do need better jobs in the county," said District 4 supervisor Marty Sistrunk. "Roads are a top priority and having a descent way out, and I think this group of supervisors can work to accomplish that goal."
"One of the projects is the Neshoba County Hospital. It's a big thing that's on the minds of Neshoba countians and we'd like to work real hard to improve all the rural roads that we still have throughout the county," said Obbie Riley, District 5 supervisor.
Currently, two firms are studying the needs and desires concerns for the hospital. One major part of this involves the emergency room.
According to supervisors, representatives from the firms are expected to wrap up their studies relatively soon and possibly present their findings to the board before this spring.
"That's on the agenda and it's got to be dealt with and I'm sure it will be in a fashion that will hopefully please the people," said Harold Reynolds, District 3 supervisor. "Because they deserve a good hospital and we want to give them one."
The first official meeting for the newly elected board of supervisors will be held Jan. 7.

When John Hastings stepped out on to the WACA two months ago to the day, it was nearly as big a moment as his trip to Perth this week. Hastings was lining up for Victoria in his first match at first-class level for nearly two years, having missed all of last summer due to a serious shoulder injury suffered while diving for a catch at a training session. Shoulder reconstructions and fast bowlers don't make for a happy mix, so simply returning to state level was an achievement.
But five Shield matches and an Australia A appearance later, Hastings was going so well in his comeback season that he found himself catapulted into Australia's side for the Perth Test. A tap on the shoulder from the selectors a quarter of an hour before Australia started their warm-up was all the warning Hastings was given that he would become Australia's 430th Test cricketer.
"It was a pretty special moment," Hastings said. "I didn't have too much time to think about. It was probably a good thing actually. I found out about 15 to 20 minutes before the warm-up. Last night I had a pretty good sleep and I wasn't thinking about it too much. I knew my role already if I was to play. Then it's just about getting out there, warming up and all of a sudden you're taking the new ball for Australia. It definitely is a boyhood dream.
"It's been a pretty big start to the year, playing all the Sheffield Shield and all the one-dayers and it was nice to get the performances on the board. You sort of have it in the back of your mind that you'd love to be playing Test cricket, or for Australia in any format, but for me it was all about getting my body right, getting back into it, feeling what cricket was like again and hopefully putting some good performances on the board. It's been a bit of a whirlwind the last six months."
Hastings's mother and his fiancée were in the crowd to watch him being presented with his baggy green by Adam Gilchrist, and before he knew it he was being asked to take the new ball for Australia. It's a job he only occasionally performs for Victoria, particularly when they need an into-the-wind workhorse, and that was the case at the WACA, where the breeze was working for the left-armers, Mitchell Starc and Mitchell Johnson, at the other end.
After a nervous start, Hastings found his rhythm and drew a loose shot from Hashim Amla, who flicked the ball off his pads to midwicket only to be reprieved by Ed Cowan. But, in his next over, Hastings was rewarded with his first Test victim when AB de Villiers nibbled outside off stump and the edge was snapped up by Michael Clarke at first slip, leaving South Africa at 5 for 67.
"It was a good feeling to get one early," Hastings said. "I was pretty nervous to start with actually. I wasn't into a rhythm at all for the first eight or ten overs and then I came out after the break and there was a little bit of swing there, which was good. I had a good bowl during the lunch break and ironed a few things out, put it all behind me, the nerves and then to get that wicket of AB was really nice."
It was the only wicket for Hastings, who finished his first day of Test cricket with 1 for 51 from 20 overs. But he can be content that he played an important role on a day on which Australia knocked South Africa, the world's No.1-ranked Test side, over for 225. Whatever the future holds for Hastings, working his way back from such a serious injury to earn a Test call-up is a fine achievement in itself.

The reason Stanford clinched at least a tie for the Pac-10 title was that USC upset Washington, 25-30, 29-31, 32-30, 30-27, 18-16, on Friday night, giving the Huskies their third conference loss. Stanford leads the pack at 15-2 (26-2) with one match remaining against California on Friday night at 7 p.m. in Maples Pavilion. Washington is 13-3 (24-3) while USC is 12-4 (23-4) each with two matches left. "It's nice that we only have to focus on one team this week," Stanford junior middle blocker Foluke Akinradewo said after the Arizona match. "I'm sure we'll still work on the little things this week in practice."

Honestly, when it comes to content and UGC stuff, grind etc. I just take a step back and shake my head at how much the ball was kind of dropped from the beginning not just with the KDF but with the whole premise of the game. I mean this was a golden opportunity to do something interesting and unique to the MMO genre.
We all know Star Trek fans are a unique and numerable group of people, and when this thing released (early and well before it should have IMO) there hadn't been a series on the air for what? Five years? With as rabid and dedicated a fan base as Trek has that was the shot they missed to release a game that could've been a new "series" for Star Trek that gave a Trek fan the unique position to actually be part of it all. I'd pay a sub even still for that kind of experience.
The story had such a good premise to begin with too, following the Fed missions, the state of the galaxy it was like DS9 all over again with different factions playing the roles. Instead here we sit almost three years into the game and its STILL Year One in the story. Virtually nothing has been added in that time except busy work, meaningless grind, and the ability to "do it yourself" with Foundry. Just unfortunate all the way around because the potential was there for unique experiences between factions. Why don't the KDF focus on their witch hunt for Undine infiltrators? An undertaking like that could have a task force, and all kinds of war mongering/aggressive infiltration missions as the KDF scoured both the Empire and other powers for the lurking infiltrators. The Fed story I think was great as is, set the stage for the Undine to unravel and gave us a peek at the real Big Bad but Klingons are nothing if not single minded in certain pursuits.
Just a shame nothing was ever done to follow that and more attention hasn't been given to pushing forward galactic events than giving us busy work.

Krispy Kreme's 'The Fight': The Internet's Best/Worst Rapper Gets In Playground Brawl (VIDEO)
If you're a decent, God-fearing American, you're already a gigantic fan of Krispy Kreme, the Southern "rapper" whose viral megahit "The Baddest" probably made him the next Poet Laureate earlier this summer.
In this video, the diminutive suburban kid/baddest dude ever dons a WWE belt to play John Cena and gets in a brawl in what appears to be an elementary school playground. As always, he's joined by silent hype man Money Maker Mike in the role of Rey Mysterio and they totally kick the asses of their assailants.
Vote Krispy Kreme/Money Maker Mike 2012, everyone, if you even care about this country at all.

Editorial notebook: The Bullitt Center — sustainable or bust | Opinion Northwest
Editorial writer Thanh Tan recently went to Capitol Hill to see the greenest office building on earth.
Seattle Times Editorial
THE new Bullitt Center, with its sleek, gray facade and giant solar-paneled roof, aims to be the Prius of green building design. The structure certainly provokes those who walk through its doors to think about the environment and our consumption habits.
Foundation President Denis Hayessays the six-story project at 1501 E. Madison St. merges the values of a region shifting toward a digital, sustainable future.
"You can be exceedingly environmental without eating granola and living in a yurt," he says, with a wry smile. "This is a highly productive building."
From the ground floor up, the Bullitt Center is pure Northwest, built with nontoxic regional materials.
The carbon-neutral commercial space generates and stores its own energy using Seattle's limited sunshine, while filters recycle the city's signature rainfall into potable water.
The Bullitt Center "walks the talk."
Parking? Nah. Only bike racks line the building's garage.
Elevator? There's one on-site, but using the stairs is expected. Along the way, natural light shines through the glass walls, exposing stunning views of the city.
Toilets? Definitely, except there's no flushing and lots of foam. Waste flows to composters in the basement.
By the time Hayes walks us up to the foundation's headquarters on the top floor, it is his seventh trek up the stairs that day.
I catch my breath then look around at the high ceilings, wall-length power windows and Douglas fir beams.
What did it take to create a space on the cutting-edge of the green movement?
The technology is so new that many lenders were not persuaded to underwrite the project. The Bullitt Foundation paid most of the construction costs.
"What succeeds here and what fails here will be a guide for others," Hayes says.
And if all goes according to plan, the Bullitt Center will be around for 250 years — making it a dynamic symbol of what's possible in Seattle.

Taking the First Step
A man walks into a church one day and kneels down to pray. "Lord," he says, "I've made mistakes, but I'm determined to change. If you let me win the lottery, I promise to be a good servant and never bother you again."
Nothing happens. So the next week the man tries again. "Please, God, let me win the lottery, and I'll come to church every week."
Again nothing happens. So the man decides to try one last time. "Lord," he implores, "why haven't I won the lottery? Have you abandoned me?"
Suddenly a deep voice booms down from above. "My son, I have not abandoned you, but at least meet me halfway—buy a ticket!"

British Comedy Awards 2012 - Full Results
Jonathan Ross has hosted the The British Comedy Awards 2012 at the Fountain TV Studios in London. The ceremony was broadcast live from the Wembley venue on Channel 4, with 13 trophies awarded.
Model Kelly Brook, film star Cuba Gooding Jr, American comic actor John Lithgow of 3rd Rock From The Sun, and 'glamour queen' Joan Collins were amongst the celebrities announcing the winners of the 22nd British Comedy Awards.
The biggest winner of the night was Sky Atlantic's dark pre-Victorian period sitcom Hunderby, which picked up both Best Sitcom and Best New Comedy Programme titles.
It had been announced in advance that Shooting Stars comedians Vic Reeves and Bob Mortimer were to be honoured with the Writers' Guild of Great Britain Award during the ceremony. Reeves said: "I am most cock-a-hoop over being awarded this most prestigious of trophies", and Mortimer added: "I'm really proud that Jim & I have always written our own guff. It's great to have that recognised."
Young stand-up comic Jack Whitehall (pictured) was perhaps the most notable individual winner of the evening, picking up the King of Comedy title - the only award to be determined by public vote.
Thanking all involved with his shows Bad Education, Fresh Meat and A League Of Their Own, Whitehall quipped: "This feels a little bit like when The Only Way Is Essex got a BAFTA ... but I'm so grateful."
The final award of the night saw Sacha Baron Cohen don his Ali G guise once more to accept the British Comedy Academy Outstanding Achievement Award on behalf of "Sacha Bell-end Cohen".

Scout's honor
Date: July 19, 2012
by: Observer Staff
Eagle Scout candidate Alex Ruschau and other members of Boy Scout Troop 14 are volunteering their time to help Wilkinson Elementary students plant a vegetable garden at the school.
The scouts started work in early July, building raised beds for the garden, which students will plant in the fall. Tools and other supplies for the garden were paid for by a grant from Whole Foods acquired by second-grade teacher Linda Ayad.
"We are very excited to have the opportunity for an on-site garden at Wilkinson," Ayad said in a release. "The students will plant and enjoy their harvest and also use the garden for science activities."

Site member Palbay spotted the new F13 M6 Coupe in Sakhir Orange with M Carbon Ceramic Brakes at the BMW Performance Center in Spartanburg, SC. Posing next to it was a Monte Carlo Blue M5 for a good visual comparison of the two cars.
Here are the physical stats compared between the M6 coupe and M5 sedan.
M6 – 1374 mm
M5 – 1451 mm (3.03 inches higher than M6 coupe)
M6 – 2106 mm (to side mirrors)
M5 – 2119 mm (to side mirrors) (0.51 inches wider than M6 … CONTINUED
You know the physical specs of the F30 3 Series and how it compares to the E90 3 Series and F10 5 Series, but exactly how do their size and shapes compare? See how the cars compare in these silhouette overlays, which show us the precise differences.
These videos may be in German, but you don't need to understand the words to appreciate what you see in the video from the X6 M, tuned by PP Performance.
The tuned X6 M first hits the dyno at PP Performance's factory. It then hits the quarter mile track and takes on a Mercedes SL65 AMG BLack Series where it shows what a monster its S63 engine is and can be.
Although it's a powerful beast, it's clear that a stock F10 M5 is no match for the Ferrari 458 on the track. But, how about a tuned M5 with 640hp? The M5 is tuned by PP-Performance to 640HP and 780 NM torque. Goes from 0-100kmh in 3.9 seconds and 310kmh top speed.
Check out the results from this comparison video of the M5 vs Ferrari at the Yas Marina track in Abu Dhabi.
Here's some telling photos comparing the Estoril Blue II color available only on the F30 3 Series M Sport with the Monte Carlo Blue exclusive to the F10 M5 sedan.

At the halfway point of this season's DTM schedule, the race series put on an exhibition stadium race at the Munich Olympic Park Stadium. So what is a stadium race?
It's a non-points showcase race event in the famous 1972 Olympic stadium where two DTM cars are placed on separate, but identical tracks, and race for the fastest finish time, similar to the Race of Champions concept. The faster car advances to the next round while the slower car is eliminated, until a final winner emerges.

What protects lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) youths from considering suicide and, conversely, what makes them most vulnerable to it? The question is of paramount concern because these youths are at least twice as likely to attempt suicide than heterosexual youths, prompting the national "It Gets Better Project" with encouraging video messages from such public figures as Lady Gaga and President Barack Obama.
We recently published the first longitudinal study to look at suicide ideation and self-harm in this population and we found that support from friends and family offers the most protection in preventing youth from thinking about suicide. Adolescents who know they can talk to their parents about problems and know they have friends who care about them are less likely to consider ending their lives.
Adolescents most likely to consider killing themselves and engage in self-harm behaviors are those who are harassed and bullied for being gay. Unfortunately, about 94% of LGBT youths have had at least one experience in which people said cruel things to them, spit on them, destroyed their property and threatened or assaulted them—all related to them being gay, according to some of our prior research.

Generously configured Fran Gerard is a girl for the stars. She works with them -- as an astrologer's assistant in sunny Southern Cal -- and lives by them. Born under the sign of Aries, Fran should be warm, outgoing, charming and strong-willed -- and she is. And, living as she does under her planet, Mars, she has been instilled with "a great deal of natural courage, a love of pioneering, testing, experimenting, investigating" -- at least, according to her sign. "I guess that's why I've always liked the science," says the pretty assistant stargazer who tends the office of a Hollywood astrology teacher. "We're forever searching the cosmos for new meanings." Our plenipotent Playmate is as versant with combos as with cosmos: "Charlie Parker's Ornithology was the greatest single ever made," says Fran, "and I think 'E.S.P.' by Miles Davis is the best LP." Sinatra is her favorite singer (especially Cottage for Sale. "Actually," she says, "I have lots of favorites, like artists Marc Chagall and Salvador Dali. They capture so much of the glory of the universe in their work, but I don't think I'm being stuffy: I like Batman, too." Fran credits another favorite, a book, with being the source of all this happiness and satisfaction. "It's The Magic of Believing by C. M. Bristol. It helps you to think positively." The positively smashing Miss Gerard's idea of a perfect man? Clark Gable. "Remember him as Rhett Butler in Gone with the Wind? He was too much," says Fran appreciatively. In an athletic mood, she is set to try her hand at skiing or swimming. "I think you have to keep fit," she says. Our agile astrologer tends to put mind over matter, even though in this case the latter (39-24-36) must be described as heavenly: "I like to think the stars are right about me," says Fran, gesturing toward the mystic chart. "It tells me here, for instance. 'Much of your beauty is centered in your natural poise, in the way you hold your head, sometimes tossing it high in defiance, at other times bringing your piercing gaze to bear on the speaker. You are a natural-born leader, work well with other people and always know how to achieve group ends.' I hope I don't sound too immodest if I say I think it's true."
