The Gus Blagden Room Selection Committee
February 12th, 2014The Committee to select an individual to live in the Augustus Silliman "Gus" Blagden, III, Room 15 West Lawn, is soliciting nominations from the University community. The Committee is looking for an undergraduate student in their fourth year of study at the University. The Scott family, who endowed the room in 1968, characterized the desired recipient as someone who:
- Selflessly commits their time to serving the University community;
- Maintains good moral character;
- Conducts themselves according to a high standard;
- Displays genuine concern and care for fellow students;
- May be distinguished by academic merit (but need not be);
- May be in a recognized position of leadership (but need not be); and
- Carries these fine qualities with the utmost humility.
Gus was a student at the University in the early 1960's. During these years, he was beloved and admired throughout the University community. Gene Corrigan, past athletic director at Virginia, knew Gus very well. He wrote that "Gus was a very average student and a mediocre athlete, at best, but was so well respected by his teammates that they chose him to be co-captain of the 1963 Lacrosse Team. He was, above all, a kind, generous and gentle person." Gus died only a few years after graduation, but he had so affected the people with whom he had contact that this room was endowed and dedicated to his honor.
Nominations for the Gus Blagden room should include a letter describing the characteristics and qualities of the nominee that make them worthy of this high honor. All members of the University community are invited to make nominations. Please include any personal stories that shed light on the character of the individual. Letters of nomination must be at least 250 words and should not exceed 500 words. Letters must be sent electronically as a Word attachment and e-mailed to firstname.lastname@example.com no later than 5 p.m. on Wednesday, February 26, 2014. Nominations must meet the above criteria or they will not be accepted. These letters carry an especially heavy weight as they will be the starting point of consideration for all nominees.
Margaret Jala,
on behalf of the Gus Blagden Selection Committee

May 10th, 2013The University of Virginia respects and encourages free expressive activity by its students, faculty, and staff. At the same time, consistent with its educational mission, the University has established reasonable time, place and manner restrictions on such activities on University Grounds to assure that such activities are undertaken in ways that avoid disruption of University operations, and are consistent with its educational, employment, and safety responsibilities to its students, faculty, and staff.
Finals Weekend always creates special challenges for the University because of the great number of activities occurring during that period across University Grounds, and the large number of people attending them. Because of this the University has created the following policy that is specific to Finals Weekend. During Finals Weekend, this policy supersedes all other policies regarding use of University Grounds and facilities to the extent such policies may be inconsistent with this one.
- Attendance at Finals Weekend events and activities is by invitation only unless otherwise noted. Those in attendance without having been invited or otherwise having been authorized to attend may be asked to leave if, in the judgment of the University, their presence creates disruption, impedes movement of invited guests from place to place, or otherwise creates unacceptable conditions for participants or invited visitors.
- Because of the large crowds and multiple venues that are typical of Finals Weekend, activities that otherwise may be consistent with University policy may be impermissible during that period.
- Items currently approved and authorized to be carried in the Academic Procession are placards that are not attached to sticks, and balloons (including inflated surgical gloves), as long as those placards and balloons are not so large or unwieldy as to obstruct or impede the procession and do not otherwise pose a safety risk.
- Items held or carried must not obscure the view of participants or invited visitors or interfere with the ceremonies.
- Activities of participants or invited visitors must not interfere with Finals Weekend events and activities.
- No non-University commercial solicitation will be allowed on University Grounds during Finals Weekend.
- Protests, demonstrations, and other expressive activities may take place during Finals Weekend within the following area of University Grounds : in the area bounded by Alderman Library, Monroe Hall, Peabody Hall, Special Collections Library, and McCormick Road (subject to space needed for emergency medical services). If Valedictory Exercises or Final Exercises are moved to the John Paul Jones Arena, the designated area is the grassy area outside the north entrance of University Hall.
- Even within this designated area, protests, demonstrations and other expressive activities, including distribution of leaflets or other written materials, may not:
- Block or impede pedestrian or vehicular traffic along streets and sidewalks;
- Involve placement of tents or other temporary structures;
- Interfere with or impede Finals Weekend events and activities;
- Use sound amplification devices; or
- Violate applicable law or University rules, regulations, or procedures.
- Persons in violation of this policy either will be instructed to bring their activities into compliance with the requirements set forth above, or asked to leave. If such persons do not comply with the University's request, they may be arrested and/or charged with violating the University's Standards of Conduct, if applicable.
For more information, go to the Final Exercises Website.
Statement of University Dean of Students Allen Groves on the May 1, 2013 Vandalizing of Beta Bridge
May 2nd, 2013On Wednesday morning, May 1, many of us awoke to find two slurs painted on Beta Bridge, a public space that has served for so many years as a place to promote this special, inclusive community. These slurs, targeting our African-American and LGBTQ students, are repugnant to our shared values at the University. We should rightly condemn them.
When I was first made aware of the slurs yesterday morning, I immediately directed my staff in Student Activities to do two things: repaint the bridge so that the slurs would have a very short time within which they were visible, and begin an investigation in an attempt to determine who might be responsible for painting them. Although we must remain mindful that some ugly or repugnant speech may be constitutionally protected and thus outside our ability to sanction, that does not preclude us from making a firm statement of condemnation in response.
We should also be mindful of several things regarding the timing and possible motivations of the person or persons who did this. We do not know if they were students, or if it was an individual acting alone or in concert with a few others. Given the timing of the act, coming as students face the pressure of final examinations, I suspect that it was designed to cause distress and anxiety in certain student communities at a critical juncture. I also suspect that it was intended to drive a wedge between members of our community, given the attempt to attribute it to a fraternal organization on Grounds. We must maintain a clear perspective and not let the acts of one or a few cowards painting two slurs in the cover of darkness create anxiety, mistrust or discord in what each of us knows is a welcoming, supportive and vibrantly diverse University community of 21,000 students and many thousands of faculty, staff and Charlottesville neighbors. Our message needs to remain that excellence is the sole standard for membership in the University community, and a diverse population that reflects the world in which our students will work and live after college is the best environment within which to learn while here.
Please know that the University's commitment to these shared values remains unshaken and firm.

Love is Love is Back!
February 11th, 2013Why Love is Love?
The Love is Love campaign is a celebration of love that is meant to create greater social awareness at the University of Virginia and beyond. The power of its message is found in its simplicity. It is a message that can span all communities. Regardless of gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, and community-affiliation, true, committed relationships between adults are founded in love. All relationships are equal. All love is equal. Love is Love. It's not about what it looks like; it's about how it feels.
The Love is Love campaign is scheduled for the week leading up to Valentine's Day, a holiday that often overlooks members of the LGBTQ community through heterosexist traditions, advertising, and greeting cards. It is also designed to help correct the common misconception that same-sex partnerships and relationships are simply based on sex and sexual attraction with no real feeling or emotion involved. It is meant to represent progress from the past and remind us of how far we still have to go.
It's a simple message, but one that bears great meaning. Love comes in all shapes, sizes, colors, and varieties. Just because it looks differently, doesn't mean it feels differently or should be treated differently. In the end, LOVE IS LOVE.
Show Some LOVE. Pick up a Shirt in the LGBT Resource Center (Newcomb 435) from 2/11-2/14.
Wear your shirt on February 14th!

OK, so here it is, straight up. If you homeschool your child, there is no 100% money-back guarantee he will turn out to be a straight "A" student with prestigious colleges knocking on his door when he's finished with high school. That scenario could happen, but it might not. As much as you want the best this world has to offer for your child, God may have something different planned for his life. Your child could go to the mission field or work at an ordinary job living a faithful, God-honoring life in his home and community.
I had over-exaggerated expectations for my children's futures until my husband rebuked me one day while homeschooling. "Why are you pushing so hard?" he asked. "What if the girls just want to be stay-at-home moms like you? Is that so bad?" As I began to think about my husband's question, I realized that my dreams for my children and God's dreams for them were two different things. I wanted them to be intelligent and successful, but God's main concern was that they be obedient and Christ-like. My foolish pride had taken me off God's straight and narrow homeschooling path for my children's futures.
How do you envision your child's life at the end of his homeschooling days? Are you teaching him to follow God's will for his future or yours? A good way to double-check is to ask yourself this question: "Is my child more concerned about pleasing me and trying to live up to my expectations or God's?" Be careful that your dreams for your child are not leading him off God's path for his life. "Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6).
Lord, help me to see my child's future as You do and give me wisdom to lead him in the direction You seek. In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Beyond Rescue
For Project Lantern, IJM made a number of notable improvements, conducting the organization's first official baseline study to assess pre-existing levels of trafficking. It has also been working to integrate trafficking victims' families and economic needs into aftercare. The organization reached out to social-service groups like the Cebu City Health Department, which conducts HIV-screening for sex workers, and even set up a meeting with an association of brothel owners in order to explain the anti-trafficking law to them. And it also seems to be conducting more tightly focused stings--in which pimps or traffickers bring minors to hotel rooms or other off-site locations--rather than conducting large, wholesale raids.
"It's good to hear about these improvements," said Françoise Girard, director of the Open Society Institute's Public Health Program. Girard had met with IJM's president, Gary Haugen, in 2007 to discuss her concerns about the group's counter-trafficking work. "But really, shouldn't they have been doing all these things before? They didn't have baseline information [about] whether their actions had any effect on numbers of trafficked women after doing this work for all these years?"
"There's real tension in their model," she continued. "Are we here to rescue individual girls, or test the theory about how the criminal justice system could create a disincentive for trafficking? When I pressed them about which to choose, they went with individual girls. There's always a reason to raid in that case--and we know what kinds of problems with deportation, detention and brutality the raids can bring."
IJM has also struggled with state corruption, including bribes, extortion and sexual coercion or complicity on the part of the police. The group won a landmark case this past September against a police officer for trafficking minors into the sex industry--the first conviction of a public officer for this crime in the Philippines. But the problems remain deeply entrenched. In 2006, before the advent of Project Lantern, the Cebu City government passed an ordinance that police were not allowed to have sexual intercourse with suspected trafficking victims when performing stings. "That was very bad," said police inspector Enrique Lacerna. "One police officer was caught on CCTV during a raid. Yes, having sex with the trafficking victim during the sting."
Despite the ordinance, another policeman confirmed that law enforcement agents still insisted on the performance of sexual services when conducting anti-trafficking raids. Nervous sweat beading his brow, he also asserted that a number of men in his unit received 10,000 pesos per month for protecting brothels and tipping off owners in the case of an impending raid. Considering that the starting monthly salary of a police officer was 9,500 pesos, it was no small haul. Fearing reprisals from other police officers, he spoke on condition of anonymity, as did a government official who indicated that "there is a concern among partners in the region about the involvement of police in trafficking, and a concern that they may use the anti-trafficking campaign to exert pressure on brothel owners for their personal benefit." The official declined to speak about specific incidents.
As in Cambodia and Thailand, some IJM rescuees did not want to stay rescued. At IJM's site in Cebu, young women and girls removed an air conditioner and jumped from the second floor of HerSpace, a processing center that IJM built, some incurring injuries. Others walked out of another center, which was undergoing construction to increase security. And still another group attempted to burn down a facility--luckily, no one was injured.
In the Philippines, I made numerous attempts to find and speak with "the one" rescued in an IJM intervention, as I had in Thailand and in Cambodia. The closest I came in any of the countries was a 19-year-old woman who had returned to prostitution after being caught in a 2008 IJM-initiated raid and escaping from Cebu's Department of Social Welfare and Development processing center. But, traumatized by the raid-and-rescue experience, she refused to speak to me in person, and only asked if I was from an NGO like IJM.
"She says she will never talk to anyone from an NGO ever again," my translator relayed, "if that is what they do."

Although it's in a rather inauspicious building, the diminutive Finches is a well-run B&B with prices that make it an excellent value. Bedrooms are large and somewhat plain, but have a few welcome extras like iPod docking stations and free Wi-Fi connections. Breakfasts are tasty, with slightly more variety than the usual "full English" option. Hosts Jane and Nigel Boulding are sweet, attentive, and clearly enjoy what they do. Cambridge town center is a 20-minute walk, or there's a bus stop just down the street.

kiss - Page 5
Kiss Guitarist Tommy Thayer Shares His Funniest Stage Mishaps
Tommy Thayer may fill Ace Frehley's platform boots in Kiss, but he's found out first-hand those boots aren't necessarily made for walking.
Kiss 'Rockabye Baby! Lullaby Renditions' Album Arriving in August
Kiss may want to make us adults 'Rock and Roll All Nite,' but for the little ones, they're probably more concerned with getting that sleep routine down. Therefore, the 'Rockabye Baby!' series has targeted Kiss as their next hard rocking band that will have their music translated into lullaby form.
Kiss 'Destroyer' Re-issue to Feature Extended Version of 'Beth'
Add a reissue of what many consider to be Kiss's finest album to the cornucopia of new merchandise available from the band in 2012. Their 1976 'Destroyer' album has been remixed and readied for an Aug. 21 release. The package will also include rare and previously unheard recordings, plus the artwork the band originally intended to use.
Scorpions NOT Breaking Up, Heading Back to the Studio After Farewell Tour [VIDEO]
First it was Cher, then KISS playing their farewell tours - only to be resurrected from the dead by recanting such evil tales of deception. Some people say "50" is the new "40", but one look at me, and you know that's plain poppycock!
Enter the Scorpions, who have recently announced their farewell tour, and upon competition of such, will head back 'into the studio' after saying good-bye to produce ANOTHER album!
Kiss, 'Hell or Hallelujah' – Song Review
A tantalizingly raw opening riff straight out of Paul Stanley's 'I Stole Your Love' playbook kicks off 'Hell or Hallelujah,' the new single from Kiss.
Kiss: 'Love Gun' First Fired 35 Years Ago
Kiss Hires War Veteran For Road Crew [VIDEO]
After a two months search that included over 1900 applicants, Gene Simmons and Kiss have their hero. As part of the Hiring Our Heroes campaign, the band hired Paul Jordan, a 27-year military veteran, to work on their road crew this summer, surprising him with the news on yesterday's 'Today' show.
Is Gene Simmons a Good Dancer? Duff McKagan Tells All!
Well, at least some fun has come out of the ill-fated and mostly cancelled Rock and Roll Allstars' South American tour: we've learned that Gene Simmons, the demonic monster of Kiss, is one helluva hoofer.
The Lost 'Kiss' Video- Ace Frehley's 'New York Groove'
Did you know that in an issue of Rolling Stone back in 1977, "Kiss" superstar Gene Simmons proclaimed "we're not a great band...the musicianship is average"? I believe drummer Peter Criss is the second most known by name member of the group. Paul Stanley (black star over right eye) comes in at #3, and lastly, flame-thrower guitarist Ace Frehley.
Kiss Rock 'Dancing With the Stars'
Kiss kicked off "Rock Week" on ABC's 'Dancing With the Stars' on Monday, with a performance so good that even grouchy old Len Goodman couldn't resist holding up his '11′ sign. The rockers performed 'Rock and Roll All Nite' in front of familiar pyrotechnics, but behind choreography never attempted at one of their stadium shows.
Gene Simmons Endorses Mitt Romney for President
Kiss bassist Gene Simmons appeared on Fox News Channel's 'Fox & Friends' and the hot topics The Demon touched on included the 2012 election, President Obama, who he supported in 2008, and of course, a Gene business endeavor in the form of his Rock & Brew bar that's launching near the Los Angeles Airport.

Walruses, Literacy Centers and Guided Reading, oh, my!
31 comments:
Thanks, Deanna. You are so helpful! Do you have 25 kids in your class with an aide? I have 23 and am on my own! I teach full day/alternate day kindergarten so I actually have 43 students in total between the 2 classes. Thanks for answering my questions...makes it a little easier to plan for these 2 groups! When you can I would love to also hear about your math centre time. I can't wait for your Literacy Centre Management ideas ... I have your guided reading package and it's fAbUlOuS!!! :)

Mrs. Albanese's Kindergarten Class- lee annJanuary 18, 2012 at 8:48 PM
Thanks for the clarifications. I see on one of your plans that someone takes a group for remediation. Does that teacher take them during center time? I am a Title I teacher, and we are still working on a system when to work with my group of students without them missing any class time.
Also, do the kiddos stay in just one center a day or do they rotate to a couple in one day?RepliesHi Lee ann, That was actually a parent volunteer who used to come and work with a group twice a week. I would love to have someone do that consistently. They go to both of the centers below their group. I also forgot to mention there is a 6th center that is just a free choice that anyone can go to after they finish their have to center.
I love your Artic Animals unit. We have been studying about polar bears this week and my kiddos are loving your ideas. Thanks for all you do!
Swimming into SecondDO you have self-contained guided reading classes or do you switch with other teachers? We all move around, but I like that you are able to reinforce other items through your centers! Thanks for the ideas...I'll keep them in my back pocket for next year!

Run Teacher, RunI love taking a peek into your classroom! =)
First Grade Blue SKiesLOVE the walruses!!! Think I'll make these with my own girlies at home this weekend!
Runde's RoomI love your room and you have given me LOTS of ideas! I have LOTS of Lips the Fish *freebies* if you want to come grab them.
We also use Stretchy Snake. I taped sound boxes on the floor where they can also come hop and stretch it out and this has been AMAZING! I would LOVE for you to come take a peek! =)

Oh my goodness Deanna, you are SO AWESOME! I have a question, when do you explain each activity that the kids have to do in the have to centers. I have tired planning 4 centers and week and explaining what they do in each center on Monday's but it is not working. The kids forget what they are supposed to do in the center, especially by the end of the week and then I have constant interruptions while trying to work in my small groups. Any suggestions or advice on how you make it work?
Alyson I have to email you a picture of my bulletin board when it's finished. Right now it has the walruses & next we're doing polar bears, so we'll add those. I love it & have already gotten lots of compliments! I can't thank you enough for inspiring me to be a better teacher. I love what we're learning & accomplishing, thanks in part to you!!

You are AmAzInG!! Love your lesson plans, and looking forward to seeing your literacy center management freebie!
ReplyDelete I love your center storage idea.. I also have a teeny tiny classroom, so this would be perfect!
A Cupcake for the TeacherI like how you have your management system with your centers, especially where you give them a "fun" center to do after they complete the assigned center.
At some point I was wondering if you could discuss how you do the book bags at the end of the day. My last half hour where the buses are being called and the kids are in the room waiting to go is always a little chaotic and would love to try the book bag idea that you do at the end of the day. Thanks for all your great ideas.Hi Deanna! I am new to the teacher blogging (inspired by you and many other super-bloggers!) I am trying to upload some of my google docs to my blog for others to upload. How do you post yours with a sample image right in the post that leads to the link? I appreciate your help! I can't find answers anywhere when I googled it.
Sarah :)

How long is this center time rotation? What do the kids do that come to you for Guided Reading and they don't finish the "have to"work from the literacy center? What is your aide doing during this time- the remedation group? Is there a set group that goes to her each day?
ReplyDelete - AnonymousJanuary 20, 2012 at 11:57 AM
Can you explain more about the animals at the bottom of your Guided Reading lesson plans. I'm assuming "stretchy snake, chunky monkey, and fish lips" are ways to sound out words, etc.??? I would like to hear more about each animal icon and what they stand for! ;o) Thanks!!!

New Mexico Poetry Renaissance, Red Crane Books, 1994
I write from the body. A poem is a physical thing: it breathes, it's made of rhythm and sound and occupies a spatial dimension. A poem first breaks through consciousness as a vibration, which is why it is sensed long before (if ever) it's comprehended.
A poet makes everything up, including one's job description. My job: to retrieve rejected or edgy bits of inner material and put them together in ways that illuminate and provoke. My poems seek connections, complications, and small astonishments.
At times I say to myself that the world has no use for so much contemporary poetry—titles lined up on shelves (and now cyberspace) like so many wallflowers waiting to be plucked. But excess of songbooks and songbirds is hardly our problem. I wish for the world a chaotic abundance of poets, artists, performers, healers, magicians, dreamers and visionaries to counterbalance the steely force of prisons, governments, guns.
The words in a spirited poem want to shape themselves in our mouths and be sounded. This is sometimes enough. As the Greek poet Sappho wrote in the 7th century B.C., "Mere air, these words, but delicious to hear."

The ViewSonic VA2037M-LED 20" Widescreen Monitor with Built-In Speakers is an LED-backlit display with a 1600 x 900 HD resolution and a 5ms video response time. LED lamps are much more energy-friendly than traditional CCFL lamps and consume about 30-40% less electricity in comparison. The 1600 x 900 resolution is sharp enough to display detailed colors in common office and general web-browsing applications. Inputs consist of VGA and DVI. An aspect ratio adjustment feature auto-detects the image size of an input signal and doesn't stretch the size if it's not widescreen. Instead the image is displayed with black bars on its sides, and the detail of the image is thus maintained.
The monitor comes with a stand that tilts 5° forward and 20° back. The monitor is also wall-mountable with the addition of optional VESA mounting brackets.
- What is LED?
- An "LED monitor" refers to a monitor with an LCD panel and an LED backlight. A typical LCD monitor uses CCFL lamps to illuminate the panel. In an LED backlit LCD monitor, white LED lamps are used for light instead. LED lamps are environmentally friendly, consuming about 30-40% less power than traditional CCFL lamps.
- Eco Mode
- ViewSonic's proprietary Eco-mode function lets you select between Standard, Optimize and Conserve modes. Standard mode will display images at the monitor's full brightness capacity. Optimize mode dims the brightness some, and Conserve mode dims a bit more to save 30-40% on energy costs.

Flowplayer Drive is an all-round solution for online video sharing and publishing. It makes the task of uploading, managing, sharing, and publishing videos extremely simple without sacrificing on quality and speed, and utilizing the latest web video technologies.
Sharing videos or publishing them on your site can be complex, time consuming, and costly. Flowplayer Drive aims to make it simple and quick — as well as free for videos up to 4 minutes long with Flowplayer branding. – Upgrade to remove branding and video duration limit.
Flowplayer Drive will not burden the users with technical jargon or leave them on their own to figure their way out of a jungle of checkboxes and pull-down menus with esoteric settings for various video formats. It doesn't get much easier: you shoot and upload, we stream it to your audience, whatever their device.
Flowplayer Drive caters for many needs. Upload videos directly from your smartphone for quick sharing by mail or social media; or shoot with professional gear, edit, upload and embed on your website.
You can also integrate Drive with your own applications using the Drive API.
Using Flowplayer Drive
Unless you already have a Flowplayer account, you need to create one to start using Flowplayer Drive.
Once you have an account and are logged in, you can start uploading videos by just dragging and dropping them onto the library view, or clicking "Upload videos" to select files.
After uploading the video originals, Flowplayer Drive automatically encodes them for viewing on today's web browsers and devices. The encoded files, along with the originals, are stored in your video library.
Once the videos have been uploaded and encoded, they'll show up in your video library and you can rename, unpublish, or delete them.
You can share links to video galleries, or embed them onto your own webpage. Galleries and embeds can contain single videos or playlists of multiple videos.
Flowplayer Drive is Free by default, and there are no limitations to how many videos you can upload, encode, and stream to your audience; there is a maximum duration limit of 4 minutes for the videos to be uploaded. All the videos will show a Flowplayer logo in one corner.
You can upgrade to one of our monthly paid plans to remove the logo and the duration limit. This will also allow you to transcode to multiple resolutions - choose the optimal quality for your target audience!
An additional Flowplayer license enables you to add your own logo to the player.
The toolbar
At the top of the main video view you can see a black toolbar. This provides access to most functionality in Drive.
- Click 'upload' to add new videos to your account by uploading them.
- Click on grid and list symbols at the right end of the bar to switch between the grid view and the list view
Additional functions become available when you select one or more videos by clicking on their title areas.
The "Play", "Unpublish", "Publish" and "Delete" functions are described below.
Managing videos
- To rename a video, click on its title, type in a new one, and hit enter, or click outside the box.
- To delete a video, select it by clicking on the thumbnail area, and click Delete on the menu ("delete" to confirm).
- To make a video private, select it and click Unpublish. This will hide the video's public link and make it invisible from previously shared playlists or embeds. To make it public again, click "Publish".
Sharing videos
To share links to videos on Flowplayer Drive, select the video(s) you want to share, and click "Play all" on the top menu. This opens a public playlist viewable by everyone; copy the link shown on the page and paste on email, webpages, or social media to share. Click "x" or hit esc to close the view. - Here is a real example which will look like this on your site.
Please note that the links — though hard-to-guess — are public, i.e. viewable by everyone who knows them.
Embedding videos on websites
To embed videos onto your own webpage, select the video(s) and click "Play all". In the playlist view that opens, click "<>" to get a code to embed on your webpage.
Single videos can be embedded directly from the library view by clicking "<>".
Website setup example
Let's assume you received the following code after clicking "<>".
The first snippet goes in your page's <head> section:
This should be copied in your page's <body>:
After pasting the above to your page, it will look like this:
- The video is loaded from Flowplayer Drive: The player is not branded with the Flowplayer logo.
- You have chosen a paid plan: The video is not watermarked.
- You have opted for encoding to multiple resolutions: HLS is played with adaptive bitrate and resolution switching in 8 qualties if the browser supports it, or the user can choose a quality manually (out of 5) via the interface of the quality selector plugin.
For further instructions on embedding, see Setup.
Metrics and spend
You can see the view counts and transfer rates (MB or GB) in the Drive's list view. Click the list view icon in the black tool bar to see these.
The list shows view counts and the total amount streamed (CDN usage) for each video. Below the list you can find the total values calculated over all videos in your account. The totals are used when calculating the cost, more about this below.
Tracking your spend
In the Pay as You Go plan you will be billed every month based on the accumulated streaming and minutes of encoded video. Your current usage is shown in the "paid videos" row at the bottom of the list view.
You can find a preview of your upcoming payment statement in your account page - more about this below.
The Economy and Pro plans both include a fixed amount of streaming in their monthly subscription price. If your monthly usage exceeds this limit, you will be billed for the additional amount. You can find the limit values here.
The MB/GB values shown in the list view reset to zero when your subscription renews each month. You will receive an email when this happens.
Free quota
You can have free videos in your account even if you are subscribed to a paid plan. The maximum streaming usage, for free videos is 5 GB per month. Your free videos will be made private if your total free streaming exceeds 5 GB on a given month. We will warn you if the usage is close to reaching this limit so that you have time to react: You can make some of the free videos private or subscribe to a paid plan.
The free quota is reset to zero every month. After the reset you again have the full 5 GB amount available for the following month. You will be notified by email each time the reset is done.
Report emails
We send you weekly report emails. This report email contains the total values of your free and paid streaming, plus a list of your most popular videos.
Statement preview
You can view a preview of your upcoming payment in your account page. The statement is calculated using the streaming and encoding usage you have had so far during the current period.
The Player
Flowplayer Drive uses the state-of-the-art web video player, Flowplayer HTML5, for playback of the shared videos, playlists, or embeds on users' sites. The player version is always the latest, so there are no added upgrade fees along with new major version releases. We here at Flowplayer continue to invest heavily in the development of Flowplayer, we believe it's the most important factor in determining the success of Drive.
For more information about embedding Flowplayer on your site, see Documentation.
Quality selector plugin
If you choose to encode to multiple resolutions as in the website setup above, the offered embed code loads the CSS and JavaScript assets of the quality selector plugin for Flowplayer Drive and integrates it in a html installation. The plugin provides two configuration options which can also be set in a global or selective JavaScript configuration:
option | default value | description |
defaultQuality | [video height]p | The default resolution. Maximal 480p . |
qualities | [lo-fi height]p,...,[hd height]p | Comma separated string of resolutions in ascending order. |
The plugin expects the files to be served in following the filenaming scheme used by Flowplayer Drive to distinguish between qualities:
In the example above:
Further details on multiple resolution result files can be found here.
The uploaded files, originals as well as encoded files, are stored on Flowplayer's servers and streamed on-demand to viewers' devices. The files are downloadable at any time by the account holder for backup purposes and later use via the Drive list view.
For more information about the encoding process, see Transcoding in Flowplayer Drive.
Flowplayer Drive is FREE by default. An unlimited number of videos can be uploaded, but there is a 4 minute limit to video duration per clip and the total streaming volume of the account is limited to 5 GB per month for free clips. Once the quota is reached, free videos will be unpublished; they can be republished after the monthly quota reset.
All videos are overlaid with a Flowplayer logo when encoded or played back using the free accounts.
For unlimited video duration, and to remove Flowplayer branding, the following Upgrade options are available:
Pay as you go
- Encoding: a per-minute rate for output video.
- Streaming: a per-GB rate for streamed video.
- A one time setup fee.

Pre-calculation of costs
Our top-priority is that you can present your videos at an optimal visual quality per transfer rate ratio. Drive transcodes every single original video with unique settings based on its content, the entire transcoding process is quality-oriented. Contrary to other services who work with fixed parameters this approach
- avoids quality loss by unnecssary hard upper limits; as a consequence you do not waste money on ugly results
- avoids quality loss (stuttering playback) by unnecessary high bitrates; as a consequence you do not waste money on data transfer without visual gain
- avoids wasting bandwidth and your money by upscaling your original to a static set of dimensions - especially important when encoding to multiple resolutions: if the original is not full HD, we do not blow it up to full HD, only to suck bandwidth and money, instead let the hardware scale up if needed, for free
We firmly believe that the above advantages outweigh by far the only drawback of this approach regarding the prognosis of streaming costs as they depend on the actual content of your videos. This does not affect the transcoding costs which depend solely on duration (not submission file size!) and the amount of resolutions.
Transcoding costs
They are applied only once per video:
- Standard single resolution results in a transcoding duration of video duration times 2.
- Multiple resolution results in a transcoding duration of video duration multiplied by 4 to 16 times.
Streaming costs
They depend largely on the viewing habits of your audience combined with the bitrate of the video. The latter in turn depends on the content of the original and, in the case of multiple resolutions, the quality/resolution picked by the client (HLS) or the user.
A talking head video will result in a very low transcoded bitrate (and therefore filesize and amount of transmitted data) whereas a video containing for instance a lot of high motion scenes or pan shots will need more data (a higher bitrate) to achieve the same quality.
If you offer multiple resolutions and your audience uses mostly mobiles over mobile connections, the client is more likely to choose a lower bitrate/resolution/quality combination in comparison to an audience behind a fast connection and obsessed with HD quality. In other words: your investment reflects the wishes of your audience, and not some lump sum determined by us.
For an extremely rough calculation one could assume the medium of the targeted bitrate window for the standard resolution as average transfer rate. This would lead to a formula of 700 KB multiplied by the expected viewing duration in seconds.
Always bear in mind that the very vagueness of this calculation buys you the guarantee of an optimal quality/transmission rate ratio, in short: best value for money.
Recommendations for video uploading
The Flowplayer Drive transcoder has no restrictions regarding your original video file submissions. If you encounter an error which is not caused by the duration limit under the free plan, please contact Flowplayer support.
We strongly recommend to refrain from pre-processing your originals before submission. Let the Flowplayer Drive transcoder do the hard work and give it as much information as possible. In your video editing suite pick the "Export to original quality" setting or similar, and upload the result. Any "optimized" settings will lose invaluable information which the transcoder is eager to evaluate; you might gain slightly on upload and processing speed in the short term, but lose on result quality in the long term. Because we love quality we do not charge for the size of your uploaded videos, only for their duration.
Transcoding in Flowplayer Drive
Video transcoding can be fearsome — not only "for dummies" — because it presents the user with endless choices, many of which are all but unnecessary for the majority of users. The goal of Flowplayer Drive encoding is to relieve the user of this painful freedom and to make the best choices automatically.
While absolute top-notch results — as is often the case — can only be achieved by manual input inspection and actual viewing of various results, we aim to offer a solution which yields videos that can be viewed on any device and in any browser with minimal to no visible quality loss compared to what is achieved through a workflow governed by individual choices.
The target audience are users who want a quick, no-fuss out of the box solution; the only required user activity is the upload of the original.
Quality oriented transcoding
The main criterion for a video is plain and simple: It has to look good.
Therefore we target good quality for web deployment, and adapt the more "technical" requirements, like bitrate etc., accordingly.
The bitrate used in our 2-pass encodings varies depending on the material, but the resulting visual quality is always the same.
This is achieved by first running a diagnostic program to determine the best encoding parameters specifically for your video. For the standard encoding the average bitrate will be curbed towards a range of 400 kbps to 1000 kbps. This range is considered as sensible for delivery over the wire, reasonably independent of connection speed. For encoding to multiple resolutions each bitrate is calculated based on the target resolution and the bitrate of the standard resolution.
Result files
Standard cross compatible resolution
Minimal requirement for showing your videos in all browsers on all platforms.
- MP4 at maximum 640x480 resolution
- WEBM at maximum 640x480 resolution
Multiple resolutions
For brilliant and crisp quality, especially on large screens - or low bandwidth transmission.
WEBM and MP4 at 1 to 4 resolutions, for manual or client feature based selection:
name | resolution | source condition | compatibility |
lo-fi | 400x288 | width > 400px and/or height > 288px | all browsers, for low bandwidth |
SD | 640x480 | always, as standard encoding | all browsers |
HD | 1280x960 | width > 640px and/or height > 480px | desktop browsers |
full HD | 1920x1080 | width > 1280px and/or height > 960px | desktop browsers |
HLS M3U8 manifest pointing to MPEG TS streams in 3 to 8 resolutions, dynamic bitrate and resolution switching in clients supporting HLS:
resolution | source condition | h.264 profile |
400x288 lo-fi | always - 1/2 bitrate of 400x288 | baseline |
400x288 | always | baseline |
480x320 | width > 400px and/or height > 288px | baseline |

General features
Flowplayer encoding takes care to
- create completely format-compliant videos
- recognize anamorphic input and resolve it undistorted
- transform PAL and NTSC formats without distortion to 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratio (read more if you ever wondered why your old Camcorder movies always looked strange on a computer screen)
- undistorted scaling of "cinema" resolutions
- cater for (often undocumented) browser and device specific quirks
- save on bitrate, dimensions etc. wherever possible
The average bitrate never exceeds the one of the original.
Width and height never exceed the dimensions of the original - except with anamorphic input which is stretched to fit display aspect ratio.
Example for defensive treating of platform quirks in the standard transcoding which must be cross-platform and cross-browser compatible:
h.264 profile Baseline, level 3.0 allows more than 1 reference frame. However, some videos then might show artifacts on some older iOS devices. Therefore we stick with 1 reference frame.
- display aspect ratio: same as original, undistorted PAL and NTSC conversion
- sample aspect ratio 1/1 for MP4 and WEBM (IE does not handle anamorphic videos)
- consistent result colorspace: yuv420p
- frame rate: constant, same as original, 30 fps max
- scan type: progressive - input is deinterlaced if needed
- bitrate: average determined from original in diagnostic run to avoid waste of bandwidth and spending; maximum threshold 1500 kbps for MP4 and WEBM at standard resolution; for multiple resolution encodings it is increased or decreased according to each target resolution
- h.264 profile and level requirements enforced
- rotated input and generic portrait aspect ratio handled correctly
MP4 Mobile device compatibility:
- Baseline profile level 3.0
- 1 reference frame - effectively 2 because of macroblock tree rate control
- 640x480 max resolution
HLS streaming enhancements:
- keyframe alignment across all resolutions for seamless transitions
- display aspect ratio exactly the same as for standard resolution throughout all all resolutions (container is always filled without borders)
- flexible segment duration according to overall duration
- video buffer verifier management optimized for HLS
- no superfluous audio track if original has none
- audio channels: 2 max
- sample rate: 44100 or 32000 or 22050 Hz - nearest input without upsampling
- bitrate: max 64 kbps (stereo) or 32 kbps (mono)

Synopsis for "Revenge of the Sinister Six, Part 1"Edit
The book opens with instant action as Spider-Man and Ghost Rider attempt to stop a rampaging cyborg in a shopping mall. Neither hero recognizes the half- man, half-robot and its dialouge doesn't lend any clues as to where he's come from. The cyborg is confused, scared, and lashing out wildly. He swats Ghost Rider away as if he were nothing and causes Spidey to dodge a hail of bullets before taking off into the sky. Spidey tags a web-line and is dragged into the air as Ghost Rider rides his bike up the side of a skyscraper, jumps from it and connects with a punch to the cyborg's face. Very cool move.
Spidey and Ghost Rider are able to weigh the cyborg down, smash through a billboard, and send him corralling into an abandoned building. The building collapses and buries the cyborg in debris as Spidey attempt to go after him. The two heroes only watch and wonder if they will ever know what this confrontation was all abour, but are happy its over. Spider-Man swings to drop Ghost Rider off at his bike and is then going to call S.H.I.E.L.D. to pick up the body. The cyborg, however, is stumbling from the rubble unnoticed and still mumbling gibberish.
Meanwhile, the Sandman is checking in on the Casada family. The Casadas used to let him board with them, but where forced to ask him to leave when the media was alerted to his presence there (Amazing Spider-Man #348). Doctor Octupus had threatened to kill the family if Sandman didn't go along with the last Sinister Six team-up, and there is still the concern that he'd go through with it since Sandman had betrayed them (Amazing Spider-Man #334-339). Naturally, the entire house explodes before his eyes. While holding one of the Casadas in his hands, Sandman swears revenge on Doc Ock and 'won't stop until you're dead!!'.
Doc Ock is busy obtaining the admantium arms that he had been searching years for. They were created a long while ago (Daredevil #165) and now he finally gets to use them. The 'old man' that he had gotten them from demands payment. Instead, Doc Ock kills him and then rips apart the army of robots that the old man had brought as back-up. The villian isn't even trying as he tears the robotic army to shreds and revels in his newfound might. After its over, he takes the massive amount of weaponry left from the old man while thinking of needing more (including men, 'some I can mold, manipulate to do my bidding').
There's a two-page spread of an argument between Peter and M.J. She was just offered a starring role in the new Arnold Schwarzenheimer movie, but it involves nude scenes. Peter isn't comfortable with it and M.J. storms off while calling him a 'square'.
Sandman meets up with the former members of the Sinister Six to get revenge on Doctor Octupus. Vulture, Mysterio, Electro, and the Hobgoblin are all in. Actually, its unclear as to wether this Hobgoblin is Jason Macendale or the demonic part separated from him in Web of Spider-Man #85. Anyway, Sandman lets them know that he's in this just for revenge for what happened to the Casadas. He goes to the hospital to visit Mrs. Casada and decides that he's going to need a back-up man because of his distrust for the Sinister Six.
He then hangs around the Daily Bugle for Spider-Man. Once they find each other, Sandman asks Spidey to come along as back-up to take down Ock. Spidey must have agreed, because the next scene involves the Sinister Five sneaking into one of Doc Ock's warehouses to take him down while he's watching from the rafters. Doc Ock lets them know he was expecting them as Spider-Man looks on, his spider-sense going off because of a huge figure on the roof of the warehouse.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2015
Where did the Irish McTigue family come from? What is the Irish McTigue family crest and coat of arms? When did the McTigue family first arrive in the United States? Where did the various branches of the family go? What is the McTigue family history? The original Gaelic form of McTigue was Mac Taidh or O Taidhg.The Middle Ages saw a great number of spelling variations for surnames common to the Irish landscape. One reason for these variations is the fact that surnames were not rigidly fixed by this period. The following variations for the name McTigue were encountered in the archives: MacTeige, McTeige, MacTigue, McTigue, MacCaig, MacCaige, McCaig, McCaige, MacKaig, McKaig, MacKeague, McKeague, McKeage, MacTague and many more. First found in County Galway (Irish: Gaillimh) part of the province of Connacht, located on the west coast of the Island, where they held a family seat from ancient times. This web page shows only a small excerpt of our McTigue research. Another 207 words(15 lines of text) covering the years 1172, 1583, 1772, and 1810 are included under the topic Early McTigue History in all our PDF Extended History products. Another 21 words(2 lines of text) are included under the topic Early McTigue Notables in all our PDF Extended History products. Death and immigration greatly reduced Ireland's population in the 19th century. For the native Irish people poverty, hunger, and racial prejudice was common. Therefore, thousands left their homeland to seek opportunity in North America. Those who survived the journey and the quarantine camps to which they arrived, were instrumental towards building the strong developing nations of the United States and the future Canada. By far, the largest influx of Irish settlers occurred with Great Potato Famine during the late 1840s. These were employed as construction or factory workers. An examination of passenger and immigration lists has shown early immigrants bearing the name McTigue: McTigue Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto. Motto: Summum nec metuam diem nec optem Motto Translation: May I neither dread nor desire the last day.
The McTigue Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The McTigue Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname. This page was last modified on 28 November 2014 at 13:06. Sign Up

I don't have any kids of my own, but I watch a couple's kids during the day. I'm a regular 9-to-5 nanny! One of the perks is that I get to drive a new 2005 Yukon around when I'm doing work, it's a pretty nice perk.
Yeah, these vehichles are definately good for hauling kids around. My brother does that and just bought a trailer to go camping as well.
Go to any store or Walmat or Taget or Home Depot, etc. 50% of the vehicles in the parking lot are Tahoes or Suburbans! I can't believe it sometimes.
Well, it just goes to show you how much bigger GM is than either Ford or Chrystler. I mean, Ford is big on telling people that the F150 is the best-selling full-sized truck in the US, but they fail to mention that the GM brand is split like 60/40 between Chevy and GMC. And even then, the Chevy trucks almost outsell the ford.
Don't forget that much of Fords "sales" are to the rental companies and the shipping/trucking companies that they own.

Spanish cajas struggling to raise capital due to new rules imposed last week will be able to access state funds as of March, the Spanish press reported earlier on Sunday.
The mostly unlisted cajas are highly exposed to a real estate market in crisis, and earlier last week were instrcuted to raise core capital levels by attracting private investors by September or face state intervention.
The proposal attracted criticism that some of the weaker cajas would be unable to survive the nine-month period without state funding.
"September 30 is the limit, but public money will be available to banks that ask for it from March, once they present their 2010 balance sheets," an unnamed source close to the matter told El Pais.
The bank restructuring fund - known as FROB - has to date injected over 11 billion euros into the cajas to aid an overhaul of the industry in which the number of banks has dropped in the last 6 months from 45 to 17.
The fund is currently worth 99 billion euros, but the Economy Minister Elena Salgado has commented how she does not expect the system to require more than 20 billion euros in total, far below the estimate of many independant analysts.
The second round of restructuring has been led by the largest caja - La Caixa - which last week announced that it would list its banking business via its holding company Criteria.
Many of Spain's cajas are expected to follow La Caixa's example in an attempt to shore up core capital and avoid partial nationalisation by the state.
The Government were not available for comment on the matter.

I won the championship last year and as such drafted at the bottom of each round (8th.) QB/WR/WR/RB/RB/TE/K/D. Standard yahoo scoring. Micheal Vick Ray Rice CJ2K Wes Welker Hakeem Nicks Jimmy Graham Mason Crosby NE Defense (Homer pick but I expect a lot out of Chandler Jones) Bench- Brandon Lloyd Darren Sproles Brent Celek Matt Ryan On a side note is anyone else a member of a yahoo league or better yet a commissioner of a yahoo league? I don't exactly trust the commissioner and assistant commissioner to not use their position to gain a competitive edge. We drafted about a week ago. Today, I noticed that the schedule has been randomized. thats fine. But yahoo lists that the schedule has been randomized 14 times. Is it possible for this message to get accidentally spammed somehow or is it possible it was randomized to where the commissioner/ co-commissioner randomized it over and over until they got a schedule that favored them?
Even by 8-team league standards, it looks like a good draft. Generally, only a homer would draft two WR's from the same team, but if you're gonna have 'em, Welker/Lloyd are pretty high on the iist of duos you'd want. Matt Ryan will probably become your starter before too long. He's poised for a big year, and Michael Vick is certain to get injured soon, because it's been like a week since his last injury so he's overdue.
Hindsight.. I bet you're stuggling: Vick, CJ, Nick has been hurt... on 2nd look, your bench is better than your starters so you might be doing fairly well: Ryan, Sproles

Hi All, I recently went in and did a manual check/update for the HTC software on my Evo3d and now I have a really annoying problem with the calendar. My issue is that I am unable to dismiss calendar events on the HTC Ring Lock Screen. M-F I have a calendar event from 6am - 3:30 pm for work so all day the calendar event shows when I turn on my phone screen. The issue with this is I then can't access the four "shortcuts" that I use on my ring lock screen, all of which I use often. Any ideas? This is the first real "bug" I've seen with this phone
So when you turn on the screen, the calendar event is blocking the apps out? Or do they not come on when you pull them into the ring?
Blocking them out, then when I "dismiss" the event it just goes to my home screen, not the ring lock with the 4 apps I've set there
This is still a problem for me. Now one else is seeing this? It's incredibly annoying that I can't dismiss calendar events on the ring lock screen. I did a full factory reset yesterday, thought it had fixed it and now I'm back to having problems......
Did you try clearing the data on both the lockscreen that you are using and the calendar app? Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All tab > then find calendar > Clear Data Repeat for lockscreen. And no, I don't see this because I use widgetlocker. I just get a notification in my notification bar when I have a calendar event.
Thanks for the advice, did it and still have the problem.Did find a quasi workaround, if I "sleep" the event instead of "dismiss", the problem is solved....I guess that's good enough

Supports Healthy Balance of Hormones*
Hormone levels affect your body in many ways resulting in:
EstroBalance®* with DIM promotes:
Find Balance for All of Life's Stages
Many women today have high estrogen levels due to stress, diet and environmental exposure to estrogen-like materials. These high levels, know as estrogen dominance, can disrupt the estrogen-progresterone ratio, which increases your need for hormone balance.
1 Daily Dose = DIM from 2lbs. of Broccoli!
EstroBalance®* women's formula is a safe, natural formula containing DIM from Indoplex®. For DIM (diindolylmethane) to affect hormone balance, it must be specially processed, so this unique formula is designed for easy absorption by the body.*
You'd have to eat at least two pounds of raw broccoli to obtain the benefits of DIM that you receive from just one daily dose of EstroBalance!

I am refreshingly honest, upfront, and loyal. I want a good friend who I can stay up and talk with. I am currently preparing to be a yoga instructor and exploring life.I would love to be with someone who takes me outside in nature and who looks at life in a liberal light... Someone who cares about the well being of others even their enemies. I love loving and want to be around people who are not afraid to do the same. I really just want to be with a man w a pure heart whose actions stand behind his words and who is not afraid to be honest about who he is. We are only on this earth for such a short time; you can not go around pretending you are someone you are not.Just be you and I promise I will do the same. But if u consider yourself a "bad boy" do not bother emailing me because I am genuinely not interested in partaking in your shenanigans. I am looking for the good ones. Submitted from mobile
