Disadvantages of a Reverse Mortgage
Posted on: 21 September 2015 by Amy Jackson
Is a reverse mortgage right for you? Maybe, but maybe not. Here are a few disadvantages and reasons why you may want to consider another option.
Before getting a reverse mortgage learn about all the disadvantage of getting a reverse mortgage. In a traditional mortgage borrowers pay down the debt over a certain term normally 30 years. With a reverse mortgage the borrower is building up debt while they are living in their home.
Besides building up debt there also can be a significant amount up costs up front when brokering a reverse mortgage. When planning to take a small portion of the money or in planning to live in the home for a short period of time remember that the costs can push up the effective rate on your home substantially.
A final major disadvantage of reverse mortgages is that you will be leaving your family with a very small amount. This may be something you want to discuss with your family. Taking out reverse mortgages gives you less equity in your home and also leaves your family with less in their inheritance of your home. The longer you remain in your home, the more interest builds. This results in less equity in your home.
What are my current financial needs?
No matter what the age you have to assess your budget and find the best way to manage your financial needs. The best way is to go through your bills from the previous month. Be sure to include all expenses that you regularly have every month. Look over your budget to see where most of your expenses are. Then consider if you need to make adjustments to your budget.
Can I adjust my budget?
Of course this depends on the person and their household expenses. There are several ways to cut back on your expenses for example shop at cheaper grocery stores, cut back on eating out, premium cable, etc. If you find you cannot sacrifice anything because you are so used to them, think about how much money you would need to continue. A good thing to consider is the length of time the equity in your home can cover your budget.
Am I willing to move?
There are additional options to increase your cash flow besides a reverse mortgage. The most common of options is moving. Needless to say it's difficult considering moving out of your home that you raised your family in and maybe made improvements to but there are times when moving is the best option. Once you sell your home the money you gain from the sale could be used to rent a home or perhaps buy a smaller home. You may want to consider a townhouse or condo as well. There are times when senior citizens need to evaluate if their current home is a suitable environment. Think about if getting around your home is as easy as it used to be now that you're older. As we all get older taking care of a larger home gets difficult. If assisted living is in your near future it may be best to sell your home.
Regardless of the final decision seniors that are considering a reverse mortgage need to assess their home situation as it presently is and decide if moving is the best option for you.
What do I plan to gain from a Reverse Mortgage and is this realistic?
This is one question you should ask yourself. Think about why you need a significant amount of cash immediately. There are many advantages and disadvantages of reverse mortgages. Regardless of why you need the money it's extremely important to understand the interest you will be accruing. Ask yourself this question and think about what your true motives are and think about what other options might be.
If you feel you are comfortable with the disadvantages of a reverse mortgage be sure to consult a reverse mortgage lender and discuss your situation. You can check out this One Reverse Mortgage review as a starting point, but it is likely in your best interests to compare multiple options, just like you would for any other major financial transaction.

Thirty-eight years old when she had her first child, actress Felicity Huffman admits that she put motherhood on hold because she was worried that having kids would ruin her career. Ten years later, the mom-of-two says that her experience as a mom is actually what helped her to land her gig on Desperate Housewives.
"Both Bill [Felicity's husband, William H. Macy] and I were workaday actors and you never make any money. You're sure that your last job is your last job and there's no security to start a family," she recalls. "So I kept waiting because my idea was that children would end my career. But oddly enough, it was because of my children that I got Desperate Housewives. I was such a mess at the audition when I came in as a real mother."
Having played the role of mom-of-five Lynette Scavo for many years now, Felicity says that she does see some similarities between her character and herself.
"We find motherhood, particularly small children, challenging and crazy-making. We're sort of buried in motherhood, although Lynette has better reason because she has more children…. Both of us are ambitious but she's a bit more of a ballbuster with her husband. And both of us love our families and love our husbands very much."
When she's not on the set, Felicity's days are spent with her daughters Sophie, 10, and Georgia, 9.
"I take my children to school, I pick them up after school, and I do those ordinary things like going shopping or to the dry cleaner."
Though she seems happier in motherhood now that the girls are a bit older, Felicity reveals that her husband is already preparing himself for their teenage years.
"I think Bill is going to freak out. He is talking about building a moat and sending them to a convent…. He says he's going to bring in a big gun and say, 'Nice to meet you. This is a Magnum 357. If you don't have her back by 11.30pm, you can use it on yourself .'"

"Yea, ohmygod, did u see 'Stenders last night? Can't believe Ricky dumped Bianca at the altar!?"
To make matters worse, the linesman was later identified as Georgi Tabakov whose father is a rather high-ranking official within the Bulgarian Football Union.

Will Kane run for governor? Fundraiser renews speculation
HARRISBURG — An upcoming fundraiser for Attorney General Kathleen Kane renews speculation about whether she intends to seek the Democratic nomination for governor next year.
Tickets for the Nov. 18 event at Stocks on 2nd, a restaurant a short walk from the state Capitol, range from $500 for an individual to $10,000 for a fundraising chair.
Kane did not respond to requests for comment.
Since taking office in January, Kane has downplayed suggestions that she will enter a crowded field from which the May Democratic primary winner will emerge to take on Republican Gov. Tom Corbett next November.
Corbett, who announced his candidacy this week, is the presumptive GOP nominee.
"She has the profile where she could be a late entrant into the race and immediately become a top-tier candidate," said Larry Ceisler, a Philadelphia public relations consultant. "I just think (Kane's advisers) want to be ready" if the political landscape shifts.
Kane pledged during last year's campaign to serve a four-year term as the state's top law enforcement official. Political strategists suggest Corbett's perceived vulnerability, based on public opinion polls, might prompt her to re-evaluate running for governor.
The Democratic primary has attracted eight potential candidates, including U.S. Rep. Allyson Schwartz and state Treasurer Rob McCord, both of Montgomery County, and former Revenue Secretary Tom Wolf of York County.
"Kane is the most popular Democrat in Pennsylvania, with the greatest name recognition. She would be foolish not to be testing the waters," said Wesley McDonald, a political science professor at Elizabethtown College. "Unless she stumbles badly politically, I believe she is the presumptive front-runner if she decides to run, and probably the next governor."
Kane was the top vote-getter in 2012, with more than 3.1 million — more votes than were cast for President Obama. She became the first woman and first Democrat to win as attorney general since the position became an elective office in 1980.
"I doubt she will run," said Moe Coleman, director emeritus of the University of Pittsburgh's Institute of Politics. Overcoming her pledge not to run would be a significant hurdle, he said.
By raising campaign money, Kane potentially could hurt other Democrats' efforts to finance campaigns, Coleman said.
Jumping in with less than a year in office might be viewed as "opportunistic," said Christopher Borick, a political science professor at Muhlenberg College. It would give opponents an issue to use against her, he said.
Steve Peterson, a political science professor at Penn State University's Harrisburg campus, said Kane may be bolstering her campaign account so she can donate to candidates and gain cache with the party. "I take her at her word," he said.
Kane challenged Corbett even before taking office, vowing to independently investigate how Corbett, as attorney general, handled the prosecution of serial child molester Jerry Sandusky, a former Penn State assistant football coach. She pledged to determine why it took almost three years to arrest Sandusky, convicted last year of abusing 10 boys.
Critics contend that Corbett delayed Sandusky's arrest until 11 months after the governor's race was decided in November 2010. Corbett denied he told anyone to slow the probe for political reasons.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 22/10/2013 (1401 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
A team cannot win without dedication, and this season the Celtics have it in spades.
"They've added a spark this year through leadership and the way there are playing," said Adrian Huntley, head coach of the St. Norbert Collegiate Celtics. "The kids have just stepped up, and once a few make those steps and the team starts to go in that direction, it gets contagious."
The Celtics nearly made it to playoffs with an unblemished record, having been undefeated until last week. Though the Celtics are guaranteed a spot in the playoffs, they took on the also-undefeated West Kildonan Wolverines on Oct. 18, losing the game 31-6. The loss left the Celtics with at 6-1 record for the season.
Huntley said the Celtics were unable to execute the way they are capable of and mistakes were made.
"We did some stuff in the game that was great, but both players and coaches made some mistakes at crucial points and that really hurt us," said Huntley.
The Celtics have come back this season a whole new team with solid senior leadership.
Cole Coyston, 16, is an offensive captain and receiver/backup quarterback. He has been on the team three years and hasn't seen chemistry like this before.
"The chemistry on our team this year is unbelievable," said Coyston. "We have quite a few new faces this year and everyone is doing their part and the team is working a lot better this year compared to last year."
Last year was a dark fourth season for the Celtics. Huntley said the team went 1-6 and at one point he questioned whether his team was having fun anymore.
On Thurs., Oct. 24, St. Norbert will be taking on the Technical Vocational High School Hornets in the quarter-final matchup. The last time these two teams met on Sept. 26, the Celtics pummelled the Hornets 34-0.

'Love Rain' Viewership Ratings Still Low
Love Rain's viewership ratings are suffering.
According to AGB Nielsen Media Research on May 9, the May 8 broadcast of KBS2's Love Rain recorded 5.8 percent in nationwide ratings. This is 0.7 percent higher than the 5.1 percent for its previous episode, but it's still settled at the bottom of the ratings chart for the time slot.
The day's episode hinted on a conflict to come as Seo Joon (Jang Keun Suk) and Jung Ha Na's (Yoona) relationship became known just before the wedding of Kim Yoon Hee (Lee Mi Sook) and Seo In Ha (Jung Jin Young). The story reached its climax with just three weeks left until its conclusion, but it still failed to grab viewer attention.
MBC's Light and Shadow scored 22.7 percent in ratings, while SBS' Fashion King garnered 9.2 percent.

Washington Scandals Smoke Screen for Gun Confiscation…"The communists are locked and loaded and have begun their advance."
by Henry Shivley
May 15, 2013
Kansas recently passed legislation designed to preempt confiscation of firearms under federal law, which, said state legislation declares as unconstitutional. The Kansas legislation even goes so far as to say that zero infringement on the 2nd Article of the Bill of Rights is the standard in reference to any and all firearms manufactured within its sovereign territory.
Other states such as Missouri have passed similar legislation which is now the law in those sovereign states. So, are the pro 2nd Article states making the appropriate moves to put the communist insurgency in checkmate in reference to the right of we the people to own and bear arms? Well, not quite.
Department of Defense regulations in reference to Defense Support of Civilian Law Enforcement Agencies published April 12, 2013 went into effect May 13, 2013. The new regulations authorize the implementation of statutory requirements for the Department of Defense to support civilian law enforcement agencies: federal, state, tribal, and local, including response to civil disturbances within the United States.

Fragments of the 70's have once again come alive on the runway, and the latest member to the club this season is none other than John Richmond. As luxe as usual, but relatively reserved for the label, fall's collection mixes fur, glitz and sheen for a rich new outing. Besides an attempt at casual wear with tees boasting the likes of Marilyn Manson, the label excels with its fitted suiting, semi-enlarged lapels and smooth silhouettes that appear to have a life of their own.

Engineering Project A and B provide an opportunity for students to undertake a major project in a specialised area relevant to civil engineering. Students will generally work in groups, although planning and writing of reports will be done individually; i.e., a separate report must be submitted by each student. Only in exceptional circumstances and by approval of Engineering Project course coordinator and the relevant academic supervisor concerned will a student be permitted to undertake a project individually.
Engineering Project is spread over a whole year, in two successive Units of Study of 6 credits points each, Engineering Project A (CIVL4024) and Engineering Project B (CIVL4025). This particular unit of study, which must precede CIVL4025 Engineering Project B, should cover the first half of the work required for a complete 'final year' thesis project. In particular, it should include almost all project planning, a major proportion of the necessary background research, and a significant proportion of the investigative or design work required of the project.

Durban - A man found guilty – and later acquitted – of the murder of his wife on their remote estate at Fort Nottingham is suing the State for R9.4 million for his "malicious arrest, detention and prosecution".
Hilton Shaw was jailed for 12 years by high court Judge Vivienne Niles-Duner in 2009 for the 2007 murder of his wife, Susan. In 2011 he was acquitted of the murder after an appeal before a full bench of the Pietermaritzburg High Court.
In a summons issued at the Pietermaritzburg High Court, Shaw now claims the KZN director of public prosecutions and the ministers of justice and police are liable to pay him damages of R9 424 800, because he should not have been arrested and prosecuted in the first place.
Shaw alleges the investigation against him was "characterised by shortcomings" and that his prosecution was "malicious" on the basis that there were no eyewitnesses or any other objective forensic evidence pointing to his guilt.
Shaw also claims the investigating officer gave "blatantly perjured evidence" at his 2007 bail application about the merits of the State's case, as a result of which bail was refused. He was denied bail four times and held six months in custody before being granted bail on appeal to the high court.
Shaw says as a result of his wrongful arrest, detention and trial, his constitutional rights were violated. He endured "pain, loss of amenities of life, shock, extreme humiliation, grave infringement of his dignity, bodily and psychological integrity, health and physical and mental wellbeing".
Following his conviction in 2009, Shaw lodged a petition with the Supreme Court of Appeal against the judgment. Judges Dhaya Pillay, Graham Lopes and Acting Judge President Chiman Patel granted the appeal and acquitted Shaw, concluding that the most probable explanation was that Susan committed suicide.
The Bench rejected the judgment of trial Judge Niles-Duner, who convicted Shaw on circumstantial evidence.
Judge Niles-Duner had rejected the possibility that Susan had committed suicide or been attacked by an intruder, as was suggested by Shaw's defence in the trial, and concluded that the only possible inference to be drawn was that Shaw had the direct intention to kill his wife.
Evidence revealed that Susan bled to death from a "contact" bullet wound fired through three layers of clothing directly into the area just above her right armpit.
Shaw initially told the court that he believed his wife had committed suicide, but later conceded it was more likely that an intruder had shot her.
In a lengthy judgment, the appeal judges accepted the suicide theory, and concluded there was reasonable doubt as to Shaw's guilt, and as a credible witness, his version that he did not shoot his wife must be accepted.
In his evidence at the trial, Shaw had said Susan had been depressed in the days before her death and had attempted suicide on two separate occasions.
Shaw told the court that on the day of her death he had left the house to check his cellphone messages. Cellphone reception could only be obtained 4km away from the house.
He said that when he got back home, he saw his wife lying face down on the veranda. No primer residue was found on Shaw's hands.
The appeal judges found that Shaw had been a consistent witness, did not contradict himself, and his testimony was corroborated by cellphone records, photographic exhibits and medical evidence.
The judges found the intruder theory was weak, as nothing was missing from the house, not even the firearm used to shoot Susan. Also, there were no signs of a third party having entered the premises.
They concluded Susan had a history of suicide attempts and suffered from depression, serious enough for her to have received medication and professional treatment.The judges found although shooting herself in the right shoulder would have been awkward, it was not impossible.
The State has yet to respond to the summons.

Mildred Pierce is a 1945 American drama film directed by Michael Curtiz and starring Joan Crawford, Jack Carson and Zachary Scott and featuring Eve Arden, Ann Blyth and Bruce Bennett, in a film noir about a long-suffering mother and her ungrateful daughter. The screenplay by Ranald MacDougall and the uncredited William Faulkner and Catherine Turney, is based upon the 1941 novel Mildred Pierce by James M. Cain. The film was produced by Jerry Wald, with studio head Jack L. Warner as executive producer.
Mildred Pierce was Crawford's first starring film for Warner Bros. after leaving MGM, and won her the Academy Award for Best Actress.
While the novel is told by a third-person narrator in strict chronological order, the film uses voice-over narration (the voice of Mildred). The story is framed by Mildred's interrogation by police after they discover the body of her second husband, Monte Beragon. The film, in noir fashion, opens with Beragon (Zachary Scott) having been shot. He murmurs the name "Mildred" before he dies. The police tell Mildred (Joan Crawford) that they believe the murderer is her first husband, Bert Pierce (Bruce Bennett). Bert has already been interrogated, and confessed to the crime. Mildred protests that he is too kind and gentle to commit murder, and goes on to relate her life story in flashback.
Mildred was married to Pierce, who is presently unemployed. Bert had been a real estate partner of Wally Fay (Jack Carson). Mildred has been supporting her family by baking and selling pies and cakes. Bert accuses Mildred of caring more about their daughters, and making them her priority instead of her husband. Mildred admits this, and the two decide to separate.
Wally propositions Mildred the moment he learns that she and Bert separated. Mildred retained custody of her two daughters, the 16-year-old Veda (Ann Blyth), a bratty social climber and aspiring pianist, and 10-year-old Kay (Jo Anne Marlowe), a tomboy. Mildred's principal goal is to provide for Veda, who longs for possessions her mother can't afford, and social status above that of her family. She is ashamed of her mother's work as a baker.
Mildred searches for a job, but is hampered by her lack of employable skills. She has never worked outside her home except for her small baking business. The best she can find is as a waitress â" a fact she hides from Veda. One day, Veda gives their maid, Lottie (Butterfly McQueen), Mildred's waitress uniform, with full knowledge that it's Mildred's. Mildred confronts Veda and is forced to admit she is a waitress. Veda treats her with derision and makes it clear that she is ashamed of her mother.
Bert arrives to take his daughters for his weekend visit. Kay contracts pneumonia on the trip and dies. Mildred channels her grief into work and throws herself into opening a new restaurant. With the help of her new friend and former supervisor, Ida (Eve Arden), Mildred's new restaurant is a success. Wally helps Mildred buy the property, and she expands into a chain of "Mildred's" throughout Southern California.
Mildred continues to smother Veda in affection and worldly goods. Veda, despite her mother's love and lavish gifts, remains spoiled, selfish, disrespectful and expresses her scorn of Mildred's common background and choice of profession. Veda's obsession with money and materialistic possessions only increases.
Veda secretly marries a well-to-do young man for his money and position, but expresses unhappiness about her marriage. Mildred and Wally agree to help her get out of the mess she's made, but Veda demands ten thousand dollars from her husband and claims she's pregnant. Her husband's family agrees, but she smugly confesses to Mildred that she lied about her pregnancy just to get the money. Mother and daughter argue, exchanging insults. Mildred tears up the check, is slapped by Veda, and throws Veda out of the house.
Bert invites Mildred out for the evening, but takes her to a club where Veda is performing as a lounge singer. Bert says he couldn't bear to tell Mildred what their daughter was doing and had to show her. Mildred begs Veda to come home, but Veda sneers and says her mother can never give her the lifestyle she wants.
Desperate to reconcile with her daughter, Mildred coaxes Monte Beragon into a loveless marriage in order to improve her social status. She knows Monte is a playboy with high social standing and an elegant mansion, but is virtually bankrupt. Monte's price for marriage is a one-third share of Mildred's business, so that he can settle his debts. Mildred agrees, and Veda, eager to live out her dream as a debutante, pretends to reconcile with her mother.
Beragon lives the life of a playboy, and takes Veda along for the ride. Mildred continues to support everyone financially, but ends up losing her business because of Monte's debts. She goes to confront Monte at his beach house, and finds her daughter in his arms. Veda scornfully tells Mildred that Monte loves her, and will leave Mildred.
Mildred runs out to her car in tears. Monte shouts that he never promised to marry Veda, and wouldn't lower himself to wed a tramp like her. A showdown ensues, and Veda shoots Monte. Mildred hears the gunshots from her car.
Veda begs her mother to help her one more time, tearfully proclaiming her love and penitence. Mildred refuses to rescue her daughter this time, and calls the police, but can't go through with it.
The detectives bring Veda into the interrogation room and explain they've trapped Mildred all along. They knew Veda committed the murder, and lead her off to jail. Mildred tells Veda "I'm sorry; I tried" but Veda, in typical careless fashion says "Don't worry about me; I'll get by" and is led away to be prosecuted. Mildred leaves the station to find Bert waiting for her.

Comparison to the novel
Though James M. Cain was often labeled a "hard-boiled crime writer", his novel Mildred Pierce was mostly a psychological work, with little violence. The adaptation was designed as a thriller and a murder was introduced into the plot.
The novel spans nine years (from 1931 to 1940), whereas the film is set in the 1940s and spans only four years. Its characters do not age as a consequence. Mildred's physical appearance doesn't change, although her costumes become more elegant as her business grows. Veda ages from around 13 to 17. Mildred is more of a tycoon in the film; her restaurants are glamorous places and she owns a whole chain ("Mildred's") instead of the novel's three. Evil, spoiled Veda, who is prodigiously talented and brilliantly devious in the novel, is somewhat less formidable in the film. All references to the Depression and the Prohibition era, which are important in the novel, are absent from the screenplay.
The plot is simplified and the number of characters reduced. Veda's training and success as a singer (including her performance at the Hollywood Bowl) were dropped in the film and her music teachers only mentioned in passing. Lucy Gessler, a key character in the novel and Mildred's good friend, is eliminated. Ida, Mildred's boss at the restaurant where she works as a waitress, is given much of Gessler's wise-cracking personality.
Monte does not die in the novel, and Veda never goes to jail. The murder portion of the story was invented by the filmmakers because the censorship code of that time required evildoers to be punished for their misdeeds.
The working title for Mildred Pierce was House on the Sand; and filming began on December 7, 1944. Ralph Bellamy, Donald Woods, George Coulouris were considered for the role of Bert, and Bonita Granville, Virginia Weidler and Martha Vickers were considered for Veda. Scenes for the film were shot in Glendale, California and Malibu, California. Permission had to be granted permission from the U.S. Army to shoot in Malibu due to wartime restrictions.
Joan Crawford had been released from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer two years prior due to a mutual agreement. Crawford campaigned for the lead role in Mildred Pierce, which most lead actresses didn't want, because of the implied age as mother of a teenage daughter. Warner Brothers and director Michael Curtiz originally wanted Bette Davis to play the title role, but she declined. Curtiz did not want Crawford to play the part. Curtiz campaigned for Barbara Stanwyck, who was working on My Reputation (1946) at the time. When he learned that Stanwyck wasn't going to be cast, he tried to obtain Olivia de Havilland or Joan Fontaine play Mildred. He approved Crawford's casting after seeing her screen test. Nevertheless there was tension on the set between the director and the star, with producer Jerry Wald acting as peacemaker.
Critical response
At the time of its original release, the staff at Variety liked the film, especially the screenplay, and wrote, "At first reading James M. Cain's novel of the same title might not suggest screenable material, but the cleanup job has resulted in a class feature, showmanly produced by Jerry Wald and tellingly directed by Michael Curtiz...The dramatics are heavy but so skillfully handled that they never cloy. Joan Crawford reaches a peak of her acting career in this pic. Ann Blyth, as the daughter, scores dramatically in her first genuine acting assignment. Zachary Scott makes the most of his character as the Pasadena heel, a talented performance."
Critic Jeremiah Kipp (2005) gave the film a mixed review: "Mildred Pierce is melodramatic trash, constructed like a reliable Aristotelian warhorse where characters have planted the seeds of their own doom in the first act, only to have grief-stricken revelations at the climax. Directed by studio favorite Michael Curtiz in German Expressionistic mode, which doesn't quite go with the California beaches and sunlight but sets the bleak tone of domestic film noir, and scored by Max Steiner with a sensational bombast that's rousing even when it doesn't match the quieter, pensive mood of individual scenes, Mildred Pierce is professionally executed and moves at a brisk clip."
Historian June Sochen (1978) argues the film lies at the intersection of the "weepie" and "independent woman" genres of the 1930s and 1940s. It accentuates common ground of the two: women must be submissive, live through others, and remain in the home.

A five-part television miniseries of Mildred Pierce premiered on HBO in March 2011, starring Kate Winslet as Mildred, Guy Pearce as Beragon, Evan Rachel Wood as Veda and Mare Winningham as Ida. Separate actresses portray Veda at different ages, as opposed to Ann Blyth alone in the 1945 film. Wally Fay's character in the original has been changed back to the novel's Wally Burgan, and is portrayed by James LeGros. The cast also includes Melissa Leo as Mildred's neighbor and friend, Lucy Gessler, a character omitted from the Crawford version. The film is told in chronological order with no flashbacks or voice-over narration, and eliminates the murder subplot that was added for the 1945 version.

Using the senses
2 July 2009Add to My Folder
Rated 2/5 from 2 ratings (Write a review)
Each of the poems in this leaflet treats the subject of the senses in a different way. The first plays with words and double meanings; two draw on a seaside context, linking to On-screen resource 2 while 'Using my senses' uses everyday situations to explore each sense. The two longer poems use repetition. Children with a good phonic knowledge should be able to read these poems independently.
Thhes teachers' notes accompany the PRINT ONLY guided reading leaflet in Literacy Time PLUS Ages 5 to 7, July 2009.
Before reading
- Revisit what the children understand about the senses, referring to science activities or On-screen resource 2.
- Look through the leaflet and discuss what kind of text it is. What do the children know about poems and poetry, including how they affect the reader? Briefly consider how poetry often looks different on the page when compared to other texts.
- Recap some decoding skills pertinent to the group – eg, basic phonic skills, such as vowel patterns or suffixes. Alternatively, if decoding is reasonably secure, focus on wider strategies to support comprehension – eg, model how to work out what sapphire might mean in 'sapphire sky and yellow sun!' by reading on to yellow sun.
- Ask the children to read each poem more than once, experimenting with intonation and phrasing.
- Read the titles together and ask the children to choose the poem they would like to read first, reminding them that they do not need to read the leaflet from front to back.
Follow-up to guided reading:
- Read and compare other poems about senses.
- Paint pictures to illustrate each verse in 'Using my senses'.
- Make up new verses that draw on the children's experiences or use props and artefacts to provide inspiration.
Reading the poems
- You may prefer to read the leaflet over two sessions to allow you to focus on a range of elements. Support each child to read the poems they have chosen, ensuring they apply their phonic skills as the first approach for new words.
- Encourage them to reread phases and sentences where they have taken time to work out words.
- Look at the layout and the punctuation and try to use these to improve the children's reading of each poem.
- The activity sheet below provides some notes for the children to refer to when reading these – or any poems – aloud. Give them copies to keep in their reading journals or to take home with their reading books.
- Ask the children to explain:
- which poem they chose to read first and why;
- what they liked about the poems;
- the pictures they conjured up in their head.
- Ask each child to read aloud a part of one of the poems they liked.
- Use the following prompts for additional guided sessions.
Holiday in colour
- What might the scarlet band be?
- What do you think a 'blue breeze' would feel like?
- What do you think pink-striped ices taste like?
- Think about the colours used in the poem. Can you think of any other seaside colours that you could see, hear, taste or feel?
- What colours would you see, hear, taste or feel in a forest or other settings? Use paint colour charts from your local DIY store to stimulate ideas.
- Notice the repetition, order change and layout in 'sky, sun, sea and sand'.
Literacy Framework
See the Using this issue chart to identify the Learning Objectives covered by these activities, to track progression from Reception through to Year 3, and to identify links with Year 1 and 2 Planning Units.
Five Little Senses All in a Row
- Discuss the play on words.
- Choose one line and illustrate it.
Using my senses
- Notice how each verse is introduced, with the sense-related action and the repetition of the beginning of the next line with a substituted adjective.
- Use this structure to write substitute verses for each sense.
The Shell
- Have the children ever listened to a shell? Provide a shell and try it. Describe what you hear.
- Provide other natural objects – eg, a damp log, dried leaves – and imagine what you taste, hear, smell, see or feel.

How many people go to Disney world carrying an ifad? Lets see, summer time, rainy, hot, wet sweaty hands, slippery, heavy and bulky, can you say shattering experience. Hmm, wonder how many fly off the whirly-gig attraction or the roller coasters?
Winter time, gloves, great time to try sticking a frozen, bare finger on a frozen piece of glass. Battery power suffers during cold weather. Hmm, can you say, fumble and shatter?
Now, I can see using SMALL devices, such as phones which can be pocketed and protected from heat, wet, and cold, but something as huge as an ifad? Hardly!
Try it on an Android phone. They are taking over, anyway, according to the data I've seen posted the last week or so. What was it, 51% and climbing? Yes, try Android devices.
Come on, Disney, thinking like this is why I sold all my Disney stock long ago. Don't want any more, either.

Did you actually read the article or just start bashing due the mention of iPad? I am no fan of Apple but the way the story is written, the Disney employee will be using the iPad to print fast passes for riders. This will allow them to walk around free and interact with park visitors. If it makes the fast pass and ride lines faster, I am all for it! Who cares if the Disney employee is using an iPad to print tickets.

Right and wrong
"the iPad is not the central device that prints out the FastPass tickets and the tablet merely is being used to display information." :)

Don't try any device this is a very stupid idea.
I'd go into a rant but its just stupid so ill leave it at that.

Thought some of you might enjoy this video. As Byll would say, "Religious content," but also an all around wonderful message.

OrangeMat that training stuff sure does work miracles! Congratulations on the speedy workouts.
Tramps you and SteveP both might want to consider roads. Very few spiders can span one with their web. As for SteveP if you work on your speed then when you run on a road AvengerDooggie would not have to drag you on a leash and could let you run free!
Spareribs I am going to go with the view that we just pay more attention to when the good guys get struck than when the bad ones do. It does suck. I lost a wonderful friend to brain cancer last year. My DW lost a good friend of hers to a brain aneurism. Nature's randomness just seems so unfair sometimes.
breger1 where did you read that the NYC Ironman was done for?
tselbs and evanflein aging parents are rough to deal with. Good luck with caring for your mom. Look forward to seeing your kids.
Jlynne last year I totally gave up on comparing my current times with those from five years ago. Like you, I just give thanks that I can run again and just keep hoping it does not stop! As Yoda might say, "Happy I am!"
Econo I am not so big on pizza. Can you just send me a check? As you know it would be economically way more efficient than sending me a pizza!
Today was a no running day seeing as yesterday was one. Instead it was an hour on the elliptical. Very exciting. Tomorrow if all goes well I have 13 on tap. In the good weather news department, it looks like that if it does rain this Saturday it will be very early in the morning (before 6am even). Since I have to have my grill and smoker up and running from about 1 to 5pm that is really good news! Plan B was to just break down in tears.
Live like you are dying not like you are afraid to die.

No running yesterday or today...went with some friends for a quick overnight visit to some friends at Denali. Haven't ever done that before, it was fun, just happened to have good weather for the trip.
Now off to backcountry, looks like next week to write up the Valley Road Run...and probably next week for resumption of running as well given my schedule this week.
Good runs all...
Erika, I only dream of running those paces.
OM, I've run sub-4 a few times. Based on training you are listing, you are definitely a sub-4 sort, otherwise you are training way too fast...so if you aren't training way too fast you should have no trouble with that time goal unless you don't taper properly.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm putting complete trust in my coach, who I finally am feeling comfortable with, after working with him for these past four months. And being the diligent and conscientious sort, I don't do anything without running it by him first.... so here's to continuing to feeling good and strong.
Of course he knows nothing of my Monkey-related plans.... and that's how that will stay!
Econo, so glad to hear Ben is doing well and has a job! Enjoy your new kitty

Today our office is closed as we take time to celebrate Thanksgiving with our friends and family. Over the past week, I asked folks at the office to share what they're thankful for this year. Check out the list below.
From everyone at Bethesda Softworks, we wish you a Happy Thanksgiving….and Go Lions!!
Ashley Cheng: As you read this, I will be in Taiwan, the country where I was born, visiting friends and relatives I haven't seen in over 20 years. I am very grateful for my family, friends, co-workers and colleagues, and mostly for my beautiful wife, Megen. I'd also like to thank everyone who has ever purchased a game I've worked on, thank you so much for your support.
Todd Howard: My family, friends, coworkers and everyone out there who supports our games. And for all the dreamers; the ones who make the games, and the ones who play them. What's on the screen is never as good as the story you're telling in your head.

Kevin Kauffman: Thanks to everyone responsible for paying me to do a job that I love and would probably do for free. Also to the best family and friends money can buy… you guys were worth every penny.

Ricardo Gonzalez, Inter-feast Programmer: I like to think that I'm thankful for most things, even bad ones, but there are a few that I could easily do without. Traffic. The squeal of wood-on-wood. Long linking times. Not owning a jetpack. That's it. Everything else can stay.
Lianne Cruz: I'm thankful for my loving family; without them, I wouldn't be where I am today. I'm also blessed to have an awesome, supportive boyfriend, whose willingness to drive 5 hours to visit continues to astound me. Finally, I'm thankful to be in the company of such a talented, hardworking crew here at Bethesda. Everyone has made my first few months here wonderful, and I consider myself very lucky.

My wife an son, my parents, my college roommate, my sisters and their families, tier 1 workmates, my extended family, tier 2 workmates, my entire set of in-laws(an average of all of their importance, I don't have time to divide them out individually), old friends who still contact me via electronic means, my laundry guy, and tier 3 workmates.
Mark Lampert: A very big thank you to all of our fans for helping us keep doing the work we do and bring you more great games. Your support keeps the lights on and the coffee brewing.

Michael Lattanzia: Cryptic Studios for giving me a fun, skill-based MMO to fill the void. Valve for giving me Steam…making PC gaming easier and removing disc swapping. Gearbox for successfully combining Diablo with an FPS. Capcom for the hundreds of awesome hours I've spent on the Monster Hunter series (and hundreds more I will be spending).

William Killeen: My family, friends, and co-workers. Thanks for helping my life move past "rad" and merge full on into "awesome."
Jen Tonon: My friends and family who prevent me from doing stupid things to myself because I don't know when to stop piling on projects. Thanks for keeping me sane and grounded in reality. Also, my puppies and kitties who make me smile, even when they poop or pee on my guitars. I'm thankful that I can wake up each day and say that I have done so much in 26 years that some people can't say for their entire lives. Times have been hard, but I am blessed to be here today.
Matt Grandstaff: My lovely wife Erin, all my family, friends, co-workers and colleagues. As always, I'd also like to thank all the fans in our community for supporting and playing our games. I'd also like to thank the NFL for continuing to allow the Lions to play on Thanksgiving.

Toolbox for Sustainable City Living: A do-it-Ourselves Guide
Toolbox for Sustainable City Living: A do-it-Ourselves Guide
The tools you need to create self-sufficient, ecologically sustainable cities "A surprisingly effective model for connecting people with dreams to the resources they need." —Austin Chronicle With more than half the world's population now residing—and struggling to survive—in cities, we can no longer afford to think of sustainability as something that applies only to forests and fields. We need sustainable living right where so many of us are: in urban neighborhoods. But how do we do it? That's where Toolbox for Sustainable City Living comes in. In 2000 the dynamic Rhizome Collective transformed an abandoned warehouse in Austin, Texas, into a sustainability training center. Here, with their first book, Scott and Stacy, two of

"There are many good books focused on the theme of sustainability and cities. However, very few books examine how the three sectors of organizational life in a city — the private, government, and non-profit — work toward sustainability in one particular city. Oakland, California: Toward a Sustainable City identifies some of the best projects, practices, and people who are contributing to the present and future sustainability of Oakland. Although the focus of the book might seem local — Oakland, California — the projects and practices are ones that can be replicable in any city. The book is unique also in identifying how religious organizations, that responded slowly to environmental issues, are very much involved in the sustainability o

Customer Reviews (50)
- It WORKS!!!Review by Dufus
- I bought this great little device with -- as they say -- fear and trepidation. I don't like to waste $20 any more than the next guy. But the small one works exactly as advertised both on my GZ250 and on my Forza 300. (I would need the larger size for my Vulcan.) The silicon ring that comes with it protects the grip, and installation is so easy that if I were worried about someone stealing mine, I could stash it in my Forza glove box with only a few seconds of delay in my day. It blends in so well, though, that I'm not worried. It's a perfect match for the bike. (Posted on 10/8/16)
- Item that shipped was not as picturedReview by Bradley
- I did not receive the item as pictured. I have the go cruise on another bike and works great. What was shipped is a different style that I have had before that failed after 2 weeks of use. (Posted on 2/1/16)
- Not for custom grips (metal)Review by Matt
- I have Rizoma grips on my '08 Speed Triple and the small version of this throttle control did not hold. The grips that I have only have a rubber portion in the middle with aluminum on the ends (where I put the throttle control, as in the video) and the vibration of the bike plus the diameter being too narrow, would not keep the lock in place. Seems like a simple and great idea but only if you have rubber grips all across your hand. Off to try a different product. (Posted on 6/2/15)
- Great ProductReview by Jeff
- This is a great product. Works well, easy to use, cheap. Probably better for experienced riders - it does take a bit of getting used to. (Posted on 8/29/13)
- SimpleReview by Bullet Bob
- Works well and is very simple to use. I have owned Throttlemeister also and this seems to work just as well for less money. Great for giving your wrist a rest! **** Four stars! (Posted on 8/6/13)
- Wish I'd A thought Of ItReview by mark
- Wow, I like this better than any others I've used, including the "factory" jobs. IF I'd thought of it, I'd be sitting in the Bahamas right now. It fits/works on a Ural and is even better than factory parts (?) (Posted on 8/1/13)
- Long Ride HelpReview by Harry
- Just tried out on a recent trip and found that the Go Cruise works well on my 2011 Concours, on flat land cruising.Takes a little getting use to, but once you figure out what conditions it best works in, you're set. For relief of hand strain this unit meets the bill and for 20 bucks give it a try. (Posted on 7/27/13)
- Bought 3 of 'emReview by The Doctor
- After reading the reviews, and looking for a good way to make the all day ride from Salt Lake City to Lake Tahoe on the lonliest highway easier, I bought one of these for myself, and two others for some friends. I ride a Versys and have used it already on the way to work and other places. Works exactly as advertised. Installation took about 3 minutes, also as advertised. My friends on their SV650's haven't tried it yet, but we're confident it will work easily also. Another friend on a 2011 Kawi Z1000 is also planning on buying one. So far I would definitely buy it again! Highly recommended. (Posted on 3/29/13)
- Go Cruise Throttle ControlReview by James
- The small fit my Triumph Tiger 800 perfectly. I will wait until the ice melts off of the roads before I try it out, however I think it will prove to be a pleasure while crossing long straight portions of Montana and Wyoming to get to the mountains. (Posted on 1/2/13)
- Simple but effectiveReview by rich
- This is very simple but effective throttle lock. IT is safer to operate than the NEP that I have been using for years, especially when I am wearing thick winter gloves. (Posted on 1/1/13)

Governor's school students host 15th annual Model UN
Citizen Staff Reports 04/09/12
Nearly 400 central Virginia high school and middle school students assembled at Maggie L. Walker Governor's School recently to participate in the 15th annual Governor's School Model United Nations Conference (GSMUN XV), around 150 being students from Henrico County.
The conference is completely student-run, consisting of a staff of around 70 Governor's School students. With more committees available to debate in than ever before, GSMUN XV prides itself in being one of the largest high school Model UN conferences in the Virginia. Six members of the secretariat staff are Henrico county residents.
Model United Nations allows students to simulate official United Nations proceedings by conducting research on global topics, representing their assigned countries, debating with other nations, and practicing the art of diplomacy to ultimately create resolutions to real international issues. Student delegates at GSMUN XV participated in committees that focused on problems such as the European Union financial crisis, infrastructure and regime development of Sudan, human trafficking, and antibiotic resistance.
This year, GSMUN XV staff and participants also raised funds to support Pencils of Promise, an international organization whose mission is to build schools in the developing world and to train young leaders to take action at home and abroad. The charity supported by last year's conference received $4,000 from the event.

Dave Peppler, pastor
By Ashley Luck, Special to the Citizen 08/20/2017 General NewsReligion
Dave Peppler, pastor of Chamberlayne Baptist Church, remembers the epiphany he had on a cold afternoon in northern Ohio when God gave him a sense of direction, after he had been wondering what life had in store for him. It was then that he knew that he wanted to become a pastor and serve God.

Daigneault named Alpine Program Director at Northwood School
LAKE PLACID, N.Y. — Jean-Pierre Daigneault will join the Northwood School faculty as Alpine Program Director this fall. Former head coach for British Columbia's women's provincial team, Daigneault brings over 12 years of professional coaching experience to his new position at Northwood. A graduate of Dartmouth College, he was captain of the Dartmouth Alpine Ski Team and is a four-time All-American NCAA Division I skier. He was previously head coach of the men's Québec Ski Team and an alpine coach at the Green Mountain Valley School (GMVS) in Vermont.
"Northwood School's alpine skiing success in the years to come will be due in large part to the work of Guy Middleton who has been at the helm since 1993, all the while building a solid foundation for the future of the program," said Daigneault. "It is a privilege for me to come to Northwood and have the opportunity to add to the legacy of its storied skiing program."
Northwood School, a partner of NYSEF and located in the Olympic village of Lake Placid, is a co-educational independent boarding and day school serving students in grades nine through post-graduate year.

Crenshaw Punch
Posted on December 08, 2011 at 18:57
"Cause I'll fuck you till the morning, so stay GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONNNEEEEEE!!!"
My favorite part.
Now that that's out of the way. Here's what you guys usually look for in my blogs... or should I call them 'art blogs' now?
First comes the doodles.
And this is the work in progress final assignment for my art class.
"I wanted to make this like a second tribute to Clemente Suave, as his style has heavily influenced my own ever since I discovered his work.
This dude wrestled line and form like and made them all his bitch."
Dev - Er, any ideas how to make this work?
Related Posts
@hel: Man, I love Crenshaw Punch though, lol. It's from their B-Sides & Rarities album, which is pretty epic. Actually, I haven't heard a bad song from them.
@LAR: I'll accept it. I love the art style of Brink, and I played it a few days ago with the Steam free weekend thing. Love the graphics, sooo, it's safe to say I'm pretty influenced by it.

Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP Encourages Investors Who Suffered Losses in Excess of $100,000 Investing In Big Lots Inc. To Contact the Firm
Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Big Lots Inc. ("Big Lots" or the "Company") (NYSE: BIG).
The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by failing to disclose that: (1) Big Lots' consumable goods businesses, including household, beauty and health items, were deteriorating; and (2) the Company's electronic products business was declining as shoppers were increasingly looking to online deals for larger products.
On March 2, 2012, in its guidance for fiscal year 2012, the Company estimated an increase in sales of 2%-3% for U.S. stores, as well as income from continuing operations projected to be $3.40-$3.50 diluted earnings per share. However, after the market closed on April 23, 2012, the Company issued a press release updating its first quarter 2012 retail sales guidance. The Company forecast a decline in first-quarter same-store sales, which was slightly negative in comparison to its prior guidance. On this news, Big Lots stock collapsed $11 per share to close at $34.71 per share on April 24, 2012, a one-day decline of 24% on volume of 13.2 million shares.
Take Action
If you purchased Big Lots securities between February 2, 2012 and April 23, 2012 and would like to discuss your legal rights, contact us by calling Juan Monteverde, Richard Gonnello or Francis McConville toll free at 877-247-4292 or at 212-983-9330 or by sending an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com or email@example.com.
