Futures are up a little which is to be expected after yesterday's 90% down day. Right now the /ES is right around the 922 area, just beneath what was support yesterday and just 10 points above the 912 pivot area:
If you can stand listening to little Timmy Geithner, here he is attempting to explain how our economy is "too unstable, fragile" and thus we need more "reform." Of course you may not understand anything about anything after listening to him which is obviously his point. What you will learn is that on Wednesday Obama is going to announce a new "Financial Products Safety Commision," LMAO, that is going to "protect" consumers.
Now that was painful! Talk about an incompetent bureaucrat… But I did love the part about how they were going to make a chart with all the government agencies on it, but there are too many and thus they couldn't! THAT is exactly the problem. Well that and the fact that the central bankers are using the crisis to launder your money into their pockets as well as to grab power via this supposed "regulatory reform."
In economic news, the ICSC store sales for last week were weaker than the previous week, falling .6%. Year over year sales were down 1.5%. The Redbook same store sales fell 4.8% in the week, yoy, which follows another very weak reading the week prior (-4.4% yoy). Here's what Econoday says about it:
For a second week, Redbook is reporting extreme weakness in chain-store sales, weakness that is not explained by year-ago comparison problems with 2008 tax rebates. Redbook reports a giant 4.8 percent year-on-year decline for same-store sales in the June 13 week compared to the year-ago week. Month-to-date, Redbook reports an unrealistic 4.5 percent decline compared to May -- that would signal one of the great retail sales collapses ever. Year-on-year stimulus comparisons also hurt this past May, not just this month: the month-to-month comparison effect of stimulus checks for this May and this June is limited. One factor that may explain the plunge is the removal of Wal-Mart from Redbook's sample, a necessity given Wal-Mart's data blackout. Redbook's text, like last week, is mild, citing a shift in Father's Day for the week's weakness -- another factor that will not affect the May-to-June comparison. In any case, the bottom line, supported by other weekly retail sales reports to a more limited extent, is that June is shaping up to be a big disappointment.
Nice attempt to explain it away, remember that they tried to do the same last week blaming it on Wal-Mart. "One of the greatest retail collapses ever" is exactly correct.
The very important PPI data came out this morning showing less inflation than expected, up .2% in May (month over month) which follows a .3% gain in April. The consensus was for a .7% jump – wrong. However, the big news here is that the year over year data shows an acceleration of DECLINING PRICES which fell 4.7% yoy following a -3.5% reading in April. This means that the RATE of DEFLATION is accelerating, exactly the opposite of what the "consensus of economists" were expecting.
This data along with the bond market collapse leads me to believe that we are getting dangerously close to critical mass for equities and a possible deflationary spiral. Note that Econoday can't even believe the sales data it's so bad, yet the PPI confirms that the reinflation people were expecting is not happening anywhere besides equities and a few commodities. But when you look year over year at commodities, they are still way down.
And how about Industral Production? OMG!! Talk about more confirmation of collapse, here's Econoday:
Manufacturing fell significantly further in May with declines widespread. Industrial production in May dropped 1.1 percent, following a 0.7 percent fall in April. The May decrease was close to the consensus forecast for a 1.0 percent plunge. The manufacturing component dropped 1.0 percent after declining 0.6 percent the prior month. For the other major nonmanufacturing components, utilities in May fell 1.4 percent while mining output decreased 2.1 percent.
Overall, the largest source of weakness was motor vehicles & parts which plunged 7.9 percent after slipping 1.2 percent in April. Excluding motor vehicles, industrial production decreased 0.9 percent after a 0.7 percent fall in April. Manufacturing ex autos fell 0.6 percent in May, matching the prior month's decrease.
Overall capacity utilization in May fell further into new record territory, dropping to 68.3 percent from 69.0 percent in April. The May rate was marginally lower than the market forecast for 68.4 percent and once more set an historical low for this series which goes back to 1967.
On a year-on-year basis, industrial production in May worsened to down 13.4 percent from down 12.7 percent the prior month.
Overall, the industrial production numbers were in line with expectations and should not offset the positive news in housing starts and producer prices. The industrial production report should be a neutral for the markets, leaving intact likely positive effects on equities from the earlier reports. But for broader perspective, manufacturing outside of autos maintained a moderate decline, still basically a neutral outcome relative to expectations. Manufacturing is still in contraction but not at a worsening pace.
What greenshoots are these guys smoking? Not down at a worse pace? Look at the data, it's DOWN 13.4% yoy?!! And that's ACCELERATING from down 12.7%! Are you kidding me? Industrial Utilization is just plain old in the gutter.
Recession over? Not hardly, more like accelerating deeper into depression.
But oddly, when I read my summary from my broker or look at CNN, the first thing I see is that there's good news for the economy! You see housing starts SURGED 17.2% after falling 12.9% the month prior! But, shhhhh, wouldn't want to point out the year over year figure for May which was down ONLY 45.2%!!! The numbers are crazy large, but just remember that big percentage comebacks (in springtime) are not as meaningful following 50%+ yoy losses… Also, it's important to keep in mind that adding new houses into a depression is just plain STUPID. The very last thing the housing industry needs now is more inventory.
Here's Econoday's positive greenshoot spin:
Housing starts in May showed surprising strength-even in the single-family component. Starts rebounded 17.2 percent, following sharp 12.9 percent drop the month before. The May pace of 0.532 million units annualized was down 45.2 percent year-on-year and was above the market projection for 0.500 million units. The rebound in May was led by the multifamily component which posted a 61.7 percent comeback after falling 49.4 percent in April. But the single-family component gained 7.5 percent, following a 3.3 percent rise the month before.
By region, the rebound in starts was led by a monthly 28.6 percent surge in the West. Other regions also saw gains with the South up 16.8 percent, the Midwest rising 11.1 percent, and the Midwest gaining 2.0 percent.
Permits also made a comeback, gaining 4.0 percent in May after slipping 2.5 percent the month before. The May permit pace of 0.518 million units annualized was down 47.0 percent on a year-ago basis.
Markets had expected some rebound in the multifamily component in starts but the increase was notably more than expected. But the really good news was the sizeable rise in the single-family component. This is good news for the green shoots advocates and should provide lift to equities. But before equity markets open in the U.S., we have to get past the industrial production release at 9:15 a.m. ET.
Market Consensus Before Announcement
Housing starts in April fell another 12.8 percent to a pace of 0.458 million units annualized-a new record low for a series going back to 1959. The April pace of 0.458 million units annualized was down 54.2 percent year-on-year. April's decrease was led by the multifamily component which plunged 46.1 percent while single-family starts edged up 2.8 percent. Looking ahead, we may see a rebound in multifamily starts pulling up the headline number. But single-family starts are still constrained by heavy supply of unsold homes-which stood at 10.1 months in April for newly constructed homes.
LMAO, "This is good news for the green shoots advocates and should provide lift to equities." Jeez, it's no wonder we are where we are which is most certainly NOT coming out of recession. Do you see the "green shoot" in question on that chart? Would building more houses in this environment be good or bad?
What a bunch of bafoons… our economy is in very serious doodoo. The math of debt simply does not work. Sure, if we had a reasonable amount of debt overhead we would recover from a slow down just fine. But that's NOT the reality. The debt could have been cleared by allowing market forces to force the weak hands into default EARLY. No, that was not allowed to happen. Thus the DEPRESSION we are IN was CAUSED by the very actions of those who say they are here to help.
Those looking for immediate inflation still don't realize that inflation is what happened over the past 30 years of falling interest rates. Debt went parabolic during that time period and fueled the greatest credit bubble in the history of mankind. That bubble is now collapsing, just read the last two or three articles I posted yesterday, especially regarding the FLOW OF FUNDS. Equities are in BIG, BIG trouble here. Yes, we may get reinflation IF our currency and governmental system survive the deflation first, but that will come LATER, AFTER the malinvestement has been swept away.

The failure to restore the power-sharing administration in Belfast is a direct consequence of the Tory-DUP deal to prop up Theresa May's government. It is undermining the entire talks process and shattering any remaining pretence of British government impartiality.
Through her pact with the DUP, Theresa May has prioritised her own electoral survival over the interests of the people in the north of Ireland, who have suffered under years of Tory austerity and are now looking into the Brexit abyss. Last Friday Sinn Féin told her that direct rule is not an option. When a Sinn Féin delegation meets with her in Downing Street on Tuesday, we will make it crystal clear again.
The social, economic, and political implications of this rightwing pact on the peace process, and on the people of Ireland, are profound. And now the increasing likelihood of a "no-deal" Brexit, cheered on by British isolationists, is putting the communities and livelihoods of citizens, especially those living along the border corridor, at risk.
Designated special status for the north of Ireland within the EU is the only feasible mechanism by which our island, its people and economy, can be protected by the Tory-DUP Brexit calamity. Quite simply, Sinn Féin will not allow a return to the past. The days of manned checkpoints, customs installations and daily disruptions of rural communities along the Irish border are over.
It should come as no surprise that the talks on restoring the power-sharing arrangements ended without agreement last week. The DUP and the British government are clearly unprepared to grant basic civil and human rights to citizens in the north, guaranteed in previous political agreements, and essential to driving social progress .
For the previous 10 months, Sinn Féin had been seeking agreement on the implementation of outstanding commitments as a basis for restoring public trust and confidence in the political institutions of the Good Friday agreement.
We were flexible, we were willing to stretch ourselves to achieve a breakthrough. Unfortunately, others were not.
The Stormont executive collapsed in January, when Martin McGuinness tendered his resignation over the DUP's refusal to deal with the financial scandal engulfing that party.
His actions marked the culmination of a growing frustration at the DUP's approach to power-sharing. Power-sharing agreements on which political institutions here were founded were reneged on, in both letter and spirit. Others were never implemented.
There was no reciprocation of Sinn Féin's efforts towards reconciliation. One DUP financial scandal followed another. Calculated insults towards the Irish language and culture became part of the accepted vocabulary of DUP representatives and, of course, there was the refusal to recognise rights that are enjoyed by citizens in every other part of these islands.
This denial of rights would not be accepted in London or Dublin and it should not be accepted in Belfast.
Why should LGBTQ people in the north be denied the right to marry? Why should native language speakers be denied the same protections as everywhere else? Why should the families of victims be denied the right to a proper inquest into the death of their loved ones resulting from the conflict in the north?
Those inequalities are indefensible. But this is precisely what the British government and the DUP are attempting to do.
Rather than act with rigorous impartiality, as the Good Friday agreement compelled them to, the British government instead provided cover for the DUP's refusal to deliver equality and honour their commitments to establish citizens' rights.
In the absence of the assembly and executive, the choice for both the British and Irish governments is between the protection of the Good Friday agreement or its abandonment.
The issues at the heart of the political crisis in the north of Ireland aren't going away. It is now the responsibility of the two governments to look to the provisions of the Good Friday agreement and to ensure British-Irish intergovernmental conference meets as soon as possible.
The way forward now is for the two governments to fulfil their responsibility as co-guarantors of the Good Friday and St Andrews agreements, to honour outstanding commitments, and to deliver rights enjoyed by everyone else on these islands to people here.
This would pave the way for the executive in the northern assembly to be restored.
The peace and political processes in Ireland are too important for citizens to be used as pawns in the internal warring in the Tory party. Theresa May should reflect carefully about her next steps – is her personal political survival more important than political and economic stability in the north of Ireland? Time will tell.
• Michelle O'Neill is leader of Sinn Féin in the Northern Ireland assembly

Finished the (currently) last Alex Verus novel, Chosen, a week or so ago. And then found out that this novel only came out this past August, which means i'm in for a wait on any future books – doh!
The book continues the saga of Alex Verus, London-based mage and diviner extraordinaire, and his growing posse of friends/apprentices, Luna, Anne, Sonder and Variam, with some of the usual nemeses, and some new/old ones to be reckoned with.
Again, no interest in spoilers here, so what I will say instead is that this seems the grittiest of the four novels so far. Alex is forced into some harder choices than seen previously and confronts several demons/skeletons in his closet along the way. And some of the mental expectations you have of the story at the start take some definite twists and turns you may or may not expect. A great continuation of the series and VERY much looking forward to the next one!
In the meantime, the next Clone book is coming out at the end of the month from Steven L. Kent; and I found The Dresden Files on DVD at the library which I can watch in the meantime, too. 🙂

Lauren Goodger has shared a sickeningly cute video of her offering her dog some breakfast first thing in the morning.
People talk to their pets as if they're babies, that's nothing new - but there's just something about this clip.
The reality star filmed her pooch Mimi at 8am this morning, offering her some of her strawberry and yoghurt before revealing she'd eaten it all.
Speaking to her dog, she gushed: "Mimi in the morning. So you want some of mummy's breakfast? Breakfast! Eaten it all for you. I will make Mimi din-dins."
Meanwhile, the pup looks a bit puzzled and seems more intrigued by the lady babbling at her than she does the delicious dish in front of her.
Lauren's been busy flaunting her figure this month in a white swimsuit with her hair in a bizarre bun, showing off her hourglass shape as she looks to "concentrate on her music".
She was also recently seen with her cleavage on show in some incredibly sexy bikini selfies taken from an angle which really put her assets in the frame .
Lauren spent a whopping £6,000 on her new boobs - which she says were worth every penny.
She recently explained: "I've always had big boobs and where I've done extreme yo-yo dieting, exercise and then not doing anything at all, I felt like my chest had lost a bit of volume on the top.
"They're very similar to my old boobs but they've got more volume rather than them flopping down a bit."

Anna Maria Island
If you're looking for waterfront homes or other luxury real estate for sale, you're probably already looking in southwest Florida. Millions around the world think of this part of Florida as paradise; it's one of the most popular destinations anywhere for tourism, relocation, and retirement. But those who actually live in southwest Florida know that the real Florida delight is Anna Maria Island, immediately west of Bradenton. It's a honeymoon paradise, a romantic getaway, and a lush, tropical delight with pure-white sandy beaches and some of the most coveted luxury homes and exclusive real estate for sale anywhere.
Not too large but full of History.
Although Anna Maria Island is not even eight miles long, its fascinating story parallels Florida's own long, rich history. Calusa and Timucua tribes exploited the island for hunting and fishing; conqistadorès sought for gold and a Fountain of Youth when Hernando DeSoto discovered the island in 1539. Enterprising Cuban anglers set up seasonal fishing camps at Anna Maria in the 19th century; it wasn't until after the Civil War that the first American settlers and developers arrived.
Today, Anna Maria Island is the site of three charming island cities (Anna Maria, Holmes Beach, and Bradenton Beach), several sparkling, pristine-white beaches (including Anna Maria Beach, Manatee County Beach, Cortez Beach, and Coquina Beach), and a number of distinctive neighborhoods and extraordinary luxury homes in several sizes, styles, and attractive designs.

The Recreation Life on Anna Maria Island
Recreation is King on Anna Maria Island. Hiking, bicycling, birding, and roller-blading are popular, but it's the water sports that draw the enthusiasts: boating, fishing, skiing, parasailing, tubing, kayaking, and canoeing. The island is a literal boater's dream-come-true. And without leaving Anna Maria Island, you can buy, rent, or charter whatever you need to enjoy any of these hugely popular water recreations. Another great benefit of Anna Maria is that you can see so much fragile Florida wildlife up-close. The island is a bird sanctuary where pelicans, cranes, sand pipers, and seagulls are welcome and nurtured. Bottlenose dolphins can often be seen from both sides of the island, and sea turtles nest on the beaches every summer.
Anna Maria Island also offers some of Florida's finest dining and entertainment. It's the home of an artists' guild, a local theater company, and an excellent elementary school. Yet the most important element on Anna Maria Island remains the homes themselves. Anna Maria Island is the site for a variety of attractive single-family homes, stylish condominiums, and graceful luxury estates. Each community on the island has its own appealing style and personality, so there's a good chance you might find your dream home in one of Anna Maria Island's charming communities or near one of its beautiful beaches.

If you ride each day or only on occasion for either recreation or competition, you deserve to expect a safe road where cyclists are protected for doing what they love, regardless of the situation.

The purpose of VMTC Prayer Ministry Schools is to train ministers and qualified lay people who are called to care for people in need of healing for brokenness and bondages caused by crippling relationships or circumstances of their pasts. During the four-day School, the Lord sets His ministers free from their own blocks and bondages. As they share more fully His Victory of the Cross, they can more effectively claim Jesus' power over sin and Satan in the lives of other people.
This is not psychological counseling training or therapy. Prayer Ministry uses loving, listening, and believing prayer to set people free. The Holy Spirit releases His supernatural gifts of wisdom, knowledge, discernment of spirits, faith, healings, etc. through trained VMTC Prayer Ministers who always minister in pairs ("two in agreement").
Who should attend:
Ordained Ministers and well qualified, stable, mature, lay people who have their pastor's permission. Spouses are encouraged to attend.
Those attending must be willing to first be healed themselves. This is NOT a "Rehabilitation Center", but rather a "Training School" for those called by God to help heal others. Trainees must attend at least 3 Schools before being given recognition as VMTC Prayer Ministers.
Who needs Prayer Ministry?
All of us are victims of the sins of others; whether during childhood, the recent past, or part of the marriage relationship. We also suffer from our own sins, many of which we cannot identify. And, of course, the very real attacks of Satan, especially through past or present occult involvements.
What is taught?
Those attending are taught through scripture and practical application how to be the Lord's chosen instrument for HIS Victorious Ministry to the broken and sin-sick world about us!
Continuing Education Credit is available for Clergy (2.1 – 2.5 CEUs).
Those attending a School should first receive a VMTC Prayer Ministry Session and submit a Registration Form.
Please "Contact Us" or any available VMTC representative to arrange for a Ministry Session.
Attendance and Cost:
Attendance at all teaching and training sessions during the 3 day School is required in order to receive credit for successful completion.
Registration fees vary depending on location. Please contact Bill Westlund or the local coordinator for registration fees and other information.
Registration and tuition fees cover all school materials, and room and board, unless otherwise noted.
Upcoming Schools:
October 22-24, 2020, Lodi California

"I loved this trip so much I just can't stop talking about it
Incredible!!– a just right mix of classic, historical climbs like the Tourmalet, and these great 'secret" outrageously beautiful climbs like the trip to the reservoir on the first day, or the Hourquette d'Ancizan–the riding ended up being more fun and more beautiful than I imagined!
The guides did a great job of keeping the group together and making it such that nobody got lost but everybody rode at a rate comfortable for them.
The closest an old schmo like me will ever get to a Tour de France experience!—swooping through the villages with the locals cheering you on, zipping through the traffic circles, epic climbs, riders from all over the world–it was great!"

"I would have to say that it was one of the best trips I have ever done. You guys did an excellent job it was very comfortable and the riding was superb!"
"Just wanted to say thanks for a great time in France. The mountains were awesome, the food was great and the biking was beyond compare, but by far the best thing about this trip was all of the new friendships I made. You guys made the trip truly memorable."

Comedian Lee Camp: Fox News a 'festival of ignorance'
"What is Fox News?" asks comedian and activist Lee Camp on the air. "It's just a parade of propaganda, isn't it? It's just a...festival of ignorance.
"A million people are dead in Iraq. Come on. This is ridiculous. What's the point of this?"
"This is insane," Camp continues. "Go out--leave your home. Go outside! Go hug your children! Love your family, you know? Do something with your life."
The anchor and panelist quickly act to drown out Camp's speech before handing the show off to another Fox anchor, flanked by four buxom women in makeshift Star Trek uniforms, to promote a story about Captain Kirk's sex appeal.
The following clip was aired on Fox News' FOX & Friends on February 23, 2008.

BANGKOK - In a surprise move, the Bank of Japan has decided to introduce an interest rate of minus 0.1 percent.
The move affects current accounts held by financial institutions at the central bank, which previously offered a miniscule 0.1 percent on deposits.
"There's a risk of further falls in oil prices, uncertainty over emerging economies, including China and global market instability that could hurt business confidence and delay the eradication of people's deflationary mindset," BOJ Governor Haruhiko Kuroda told reporters in Tokyo.
The central bankers, after their 5-4 vote Friday, issued a statement warning of deeper interest rate cuts into negative territory "if judged as necessary."
Negative interest rates – something that sounds counterintuitive – means that financial institutions, instead of receiving money for their deposits, must pay to keep their money at the central bank. This is intended to be an incentive for the banks to lend money more freely.
"It really is a very, very strong signal. It is a penalty for the banks to just lazily give their money to the central bank rather than investing it in the real world," said Jesper Koll, CEO of WisdomTree Japan, who praised the BOJ move.
Japan is effectively following the lead of the European Central Bank, which has already introduced negative interest rates after banks there failed to pursue higher returns through enhanced lending.
The central bank on Friday, by a vote of 8-1, left its asset purchase program unchanged at 80 trillion yen ($673 billion) a year.
The world's third-largest economy has been grappling with ways to stimulate inflation.
Consumer spending
Consumer spending in Japan fell 4.4 percent in December from a year earlier. Government economists had hoped savings from lower oil prices would prompt households to splurge a bit.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe for three years with his "Abenomics" policy has been trying to break Japan's deflationary cycle of weak growth and falling prices bedeviling the economy.
"The dream of Abenomics is about policy coordination. And today what we got is the central bank making it very clear that they will do their part of the bargain," Koll told VOA.
Japan has been criticized for failing to be bold enough in restructuring the economy to prompt growth in a country where the population is shrinking and aging.
"Next we're going to need to see re-ignition, a radical policy break and leadership coming from Prime Minister Abe himself on deregulation, on privatizing and really empowering the demand of the Japanese entrepreneurs and consumers," said Koll.
Market reaction
Friday's decision pushed the yield on Japanese bonds to a record low.
The yen also fell while the move set off wild gyrations for the Japanese stock indexes with investors apparently wondering whether the BOJ action will be effective.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 closed up 2.8 percent.
Other Asian stock markets mostly rose, partly in reaction to the BOJ move as well as being encouraged by China's Premier Li Keqiang reportedly telling International Monetary Fund director Christine Lagarde that Beijing has no intention of boosting exports by devaluing the renminbi.
The Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite index closed up more than 3 percent for the day Friday, but finished the week down 6 percent.
The BOJ decision came less than 24 hours after Japan's economy minister, Akira Amari, resigned due to a funding scandal.
Economic team
Amari was a core member of the prime minister's economic team, as well as serving as Japan's lead negotiator for the successful formation of the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade bloc.
Amari's replacement, Nobuteru Ishihara, is a former environment minister and son of an outspoken nationalist, former Tokyo governor Shintaro Ishihara.
"I want to guide macro-economic policy to spread the benefit of Abenomics through the Japanese economy, including rural areas and small enterprises," the new economics minister said on Friday.
The prime minister stressed on Friday that reforms would continue.
"Together with Minister Ishihara, I'd like to use my full capacity to push through structural reforms and implement our growth strategy," Abe told reporters.

A good video is like a shot of B-12 to any message you're trying to get out there.
Whether you're teaching, training, advertising, or expressing yourself as an artist, a well-made video can accomplish so much in so little time. Until recently, the tools to create professional-looking videos were out of the hands of most regular folks. But those days are over. YouTube and movie-editing software have now made it possible for us to take what's in our video cameras, edit them with beautiful production values, and share them with the world. And now the same is coming true with animation. 12 Awesome Edtech Apps. Build an edtech teaching toolkit that works for you with reliable tools that suit your needs and circumstances.
Learning should focus on content, not on figuring out how a tool works. While I'll probably use 100 tools during any school year, I have 12 in my trusted toolkit, listed here in no particular order. I've also asked teachers on Twitter about their favorites, which I've shared at the bottom of the post. 1. Teacher Recommended: 50 Favorite Classroom Apps.
Educators and students are quickly becoming more comfortable with classroom technology, allowing them to shift from thinking about the technical side of integrating a new tool to focusing on how it improves learning.
While the sheer number of education apps is still overwhelming, increasingly teachers have found what works for them and are sticking to them. "The conversations I had were radically different than they were a year ago," said Michelle Luhtala, the librarian for New Canaan High School and host of an Emerging Tech webinar on edWeb. She tapped her professional learning network of educators, teaching all grades and located all over the country, to share their favorite tech tools.
"A year ago people felt like it was this new thing that was so overwhelming," Luhtala said, "and now it really seems much more comfortable."

All students should be able to be part of that. No longer working for the teacher's wastebasket, students across the world are connecting and sharing like never before. They are led by teachers unafraid of the world but who escort their kids out to meet the future. While a recent poll showed 9 out of 10 teachers do not use social media in the classroom, there are teachers who are. Teach your students the right way to Google. Kelly Maher November 24th, 2014 In the age of the split-second Google search, it's more critical than ever to train students to distinguish between primary and secondary sources As in decades past, proper research methods are an essential skill for today's students.
At a time when most students (and adults, for that matter) are accustomed to heading straight to Google to answer all of their questions, being able to sagely sift through the good, the bad, and the ugly of search results is key to creating independent 21st century thinkers. However, even when used properly, Google is not always the right resource. On its website, the Kentucky Virtual Library provides a detailed, student-friendly interactive map of the research process, called "How To Do Research," which spells out the steps for making the most of the research process, from planning to searching to taking notes and ultimately using gathered information effectively.
App Evaluation Rubric. App Evaluation Rubric for Students. Ways to Evaluate Educational Apps. I am conducting a series of workshops in Florida and was asked to share a rubric to help teachers evaluate educational apps as part of the workshop.
In 2010 Harry Walker developed a rubric, and I used his rubric (with some modifications by Kathy Schrock) as the basis for mine. (Read Harry Walker's paper Evaluating the Effectiveness of Apps for Mobile Devices.) I kept in mind that some apps are used to practice a discrete skill or present information just one time. Others are creative apps that a learner may use again and again, so it's a challenge to craft a rubric that can be used for a wide span of purposes. I tried to make my rubric work for the broadest range of apps, from drill and practice to creative endeavors, while stressing the purpose for using the app. My rubric also emphasizes the ability to customize content or settings and how the app encourages the use of higher order thinking skills.

Pine Island Homestead
The Pine island property still has sheep nearly a century after Darcy Thompson settled here.
How to get there?
From the Bombing Practice site turn left into Barr-Smith Avenue, take the third left into Don Dunstan Drive and turn left into Pine Island Road.
From the Visitors Centre drive south over Commonwealth Bridge, around Parliament House then take the left turn after the Royal Australian Mint exit onto the Cotter Road overpass. Turn left onto Tuggeranong Parkway and remain on this road for 12.5 km. Turn right into the 2nd Athllon Drive entry. Take the third roundabout left into Don Dunstan Drive then right into Pine Island Drive.
Why is this interesting?
As part of the Murrumbidgee River Corridor, Pine Island is a popular barbeque and picnic area of 32 hectares. Trails lead from Pine Island along the river 8 km up to Kambah Pool. Halfway along is Red Rock Gorge, which is marked by brown, grey and red sediment layers caused by the oxidation of the iron rich rocks.
Pine Island was a soldier settler property. Eligible returned service men and those who had volunteered for overseas service were invited to make an application for land. The selection process took place over two days in March 1920, during which the lands at Jerrabomberra and Tuggeranong were allocated, including Pine Island, which was allocated to Darcy Thompson.
The driveway to the Pine Island Homestead is just before the grid into the Reserve. Although the homestead is closed to the public, a short walk along the equestrian trail and fence line will provide a view of this soldier settler property.

Everyone Counts: Count Us In 2013
I was lucky enough to be asked to be the Meal Team Leader last Thursday at the Teen Feed Count Us In site. During the extended two hour meal we served over 80 youth and young adults ages 13-25, and the many volunteers who came to help out. Following is an excellent summary of Count Us In and the importance of counting a population that has until very recently been "hidden" in our plain sight.
If you are interested in joining me in Olympia at Housing and Homelessness Advocacy Day on February 11th please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Repost: Everyone Counts: Homeless Youth & Young Adult 2013 Count Us In
Firesteel / Blog / Everyone Counts: Homeless Youth & Young Adult 2013 Count Us In.
Homeless counts will have taken place in every county across the country by the end of January. In this series, "Everyone Counts," our partners at Firesteel explore the importance of these counts and hear what impact they had on some of the thousands of volunteers in Western Washington. In this post, Ashwin from Seattle University shares insights from the Count Us In homeless youth and young adult count–a population which has only recently been counted!
By Ashwin Warrior, Project Assistant, Seattle University's Project on Family Homelessness; Senior, Seattle University.
At 6 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 24, the doors to the basement of University Congregational Church in Seattle's University District swing open, and the youth flow in out of the cold.
They are greeted by warmth and smiles, offered dry clothes and small sets of toiletries, and —perhaps most importantly—fed a warm meal.
Since 1987, the non-profit organization Teen Feed has been providing regular meals to the University District's homeless youth population. In 2011, the organization served more than 13,200 meals to 690 individual youths in need.
Tonight, however, is about more than food. As the youth sit down to an enchilada dinner, volunteers disperse among the crowd, clipboards and pens in hand.
Teen Feed is one of the providers at the center of King County's third annual Count Us In initiative, an effort started in 2011 to better count youth and young adults who are unstably housed or homeless. This is the first time that Count Us In has been aligned with the One Night Count in King County.
The effort is led by a steering committee that comprises of United Way of King County, the City of Seattle, King County and youth & young adult providers. The goal is to end homelessness among youth and young adults – "unaccompanied youth" ages 12-24 – by 2020.
Volunteers and staff interviewed youth and young adults at centralized sites around the county, including libraries, drop-in centers and meal programs. Some providers also went into the community to do outreach and find the young people. The survey they used includes questions such as where the young person slept the night before, but also gets into some of the major causes of homelessness among this group, including whether the young person has ever been in foster care.
The U.S. Interagency Council (USICH) selected King County and Washington state as one of nine locations to participate in a national pilot to collect data on youth homelessness.
Data gathered from Teen Feed and numerous other youth agencies across King County, including Auburn Youth Resources, Friends of Youth and YouthCare's Orion Center, will be added to the One Night Count estimates and reported to the Department of Housing and Urban Development. It will also be used to better tailor youth services across the county.
As one worker of the night, Alex Okerman of the YMCA's Young Adult Services, explains, "It's really essential to understanding homelessness. If we're going to try and do something to stop it, by asking questions about these young adults and what their past experiences are like…we can get to the root of some of the issues." Hear more of his thoughts below:
Many locations also hosted a sleepover for the youth who participated in the Count.

The second Count Us In, in 2012, recorded a conservative number of 685 unstably housed youth and young adults in King County. Preliminary results from Count Us In will be available soon; watch for more here on Firesteel.
The Come Home Alive Initiative (CHAI)
Submitted by Jessica Trupin, Temple Beth Am Member
On Friday, December 14th, after hearing about the shootings in Newtown, I posted a notice to Facebook. I would open my living room every other Sunday at 3pm for the foreseeable future to anyone who wanted to "do something". On Sunday the 16th nine people gathered. The Come Home Alive Initiative was created from that first meeting.
Our founding mission is this: The Come Home Alive Initiative (CHAI) is committed to a violence-free America so our children come home alive from school or play, soldiers come home alive from our wars, and each of us finds in our minds a place to which we may come home alive. CHAI is a group of parents, educators, and activists who came together in the wake of the Connecticut school shootings to lobby for legislation, dismantle our nation's culture of fear and violence, and raise awareness of peaceful alternatives.
On December 30th we were fortunate to have the executive director of Washington CeaseFire come speak with us. This Sunday, January 13th, we will be joining the march from Westlake Park to the Seattle Center: StandUp Washington : Turning Anger in to Action.
We will be supporting the assault weapons ban this session, but beyond that, we're committed to a broader view than the us v. them paradigm that's kept a grip on our national dialogue. Sensible, responsible gun owners are more than welcome and are, in fact, crucial to this conversation.
If you're interested, we currently exist only on Facebook as the Densmore Working Group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/485572574828611/?bookmark_t=group) and in my living room, so please email me either at email@example.com or connect with me on Facebook. The name CHAI was a lucky accident.

Afraid to drop my kids off at school
Post by Guest Blogger Suzi LeVine
In 2006, a lunatic got into the Seattle Jewish Federation offices and shot/killed people. This man wasn't just a lunatic. He was/is a terrorist. He struck terror into the hearts of the Jews throughout Seattle. The day after the incident, a group of us met on a hillside our neighborhood, with a police officer stationed nearby to keep us safe. To the depths of our souls, we were afraid. That's terror. That's what terrorists do.
To help keep our community safe, many of the Jewish institutions in Washington State received funding to turn their facilities into fortresses. I was on the board of Hillel (the Jewish Student organization at the University of Washington) at the time and we really wrestled with this conundrum. We wanted to make sure that students felt that it was an open and hospitable environment. Yet – we needed our staff and students to be safe. We had just built a beautiful window-filled building designed to convey that sense of welcoming and lightness.
6 years later, we have bullet proof front glass doors, an intercom system to buzz people in, a surveillance system that captures footage of the surrounding area, and armed police officers for many of the big events. Fortunately, students are resilient and they have continued to come. They have grown accustomed to a new – and perverse – normal.
In 2007, my family and I went to Israel and, during our trip, went to a mall in Eilat to buy some sandals. We went through metal detectors that were staffed by young men with very large and imposing guns. Throughout their country, Israelis go through security to shop and live their lives. They have grown accustomed to a new – and perverse – normal.
Today, I drove my 2 elementary school kids to their respective schools. There was a police officer at my daughter's school but no noticeable security at my son's school. I have never been scared of dropping my children off at school before. But my brain couldn't help but run through macabre scenarios at what are sweet and very open/accessible schools. Would some crazy young man (they are all young men, unfortunately) go into the school with a semi-automatic weapon and murder my babies? Of course the odds are against that happening, but are there mentally ill copy cats who would do that? Just last year, some dumb high school students carried fake plastic weapons onto the play area of one of our neighborhood elementary schools. Granted, they wouldn't fire on anyone – but if there can be non-mentally ill high school students who do something as moronic as that (last I checked, "stupid" wasn't classified as a mental illness), then it's not a stretch for someone to bring a real weapon to one of the schools
So what's the solution? How do we reduce the terror? How do we reduce the gun violence?
There are far more qualified people thinking about the criminal science and legislative angles on this. But here are just a few ideas from a mom who wants to make sure that, tonight, I get to kiss and hug my babies:
Eliminate the weapons and their ammo – we need federal, state and municipal efforts on this:
- Ban them and make it impossibly hard to acquire and/or keep them – including ones that people already own (when legislation gets introduced on this, it'll be incumbent on all of us to work hard and make a ton of phone calls in support of this legislation. The Pro-Assault Gun lobby has a lot more money and will do a lot to stop this, but we are stronger).
- Buy them back from people so that they feel fairly compensated (And for those who say that only the people who are truly dangerous will then be able to acquire them, I have only to point out that, if Adam Lanza's mother had not been able to LEGALLY acquire the weapons she had, maybe he would not have been able to do what he did). Here's more on the NY andChicago buy back programs. Each program had pros/cons – but if you can couple the ban WITH a buy back program, perhaps it can be more successful.
- Make the ammo cost (as Chris Rock says) $5,000/bullet.
- Charge obscene levels of taxes on any weapon related purchases. If we can tax soda, cigarettes, gas and candy more, we sure as heck can tax weapons/ammo more.
Especially in the interim when the politicians are fighting/hashing through what can still respect the 2nd amendment – Turn the schools into fortresses
- If you can't keep a lunatic from getting a weapon – then you better tell me you'll make it a heck of a lot harder for them to get into my kid's school. Governors, Mayors, Senators, Presidents – find the funding to get my kids' schools secure. I don't want my kids' principals to have to tackle the lunatic. I don't want the lunatic to get into the school.
- One thing NOT to do, though, is to introduce more guns to the situation. It's truly insane to think that arming and training teachers/school administrators to USE and keep guns is going to prevent gun violence. So – what – you want to have a Wyatt Earp style standoff next to the girls bathroom and lockers? That's not okay.
Address the mental health crisis
- At both of my kids' schools, one of the first things cut with budget limitations was a school counselor. What if school counselors and mental health were the top priorities?
- Better fund early learning – as that's the time to identify and address many of the issues that eventually balloon into much bigger issues. What if we could identify a lapse in brain development in the area of the brain pertaining to empathy – and then provide strategies and tools for development? What if programs like Roots of Empathy could help EVERY student develop those areas more effectively. Prof. James Heckman from the U of Chicago did a study that showed that, for every dollar we invest in early learning (zero to 5 in his study) we save $7-14 later in incarceration, rehabilitation, and other crime related costs.
Given how long it will probably take to pass and then enact legislation, I would suggest that we need parallel action tracks to address this scourge on society.
Ever since they were teeny, I would emphasize to them that my number one job (besides loving them) was to keep them safe. For example, if they were doing something fun, but dangerous (playing with sharp sticks), I would be a buzzkill and tell them to put the sticks down. After they guffawed with a two syllable "mo-om!" I would simply ask: "what's my main job" – and they'd put the stick down while reluctantly saying "keep me safe".
This time "keeping them safe" feels much more daunting, especially since it relies on the whole community and country. But I've watched enough movies to know that, when the group comes together to take down the bad guy, the group – and good – always triumphs.
Change on this front is not going to happen if we don't push for it. So – while I still feel afraid today to drop my kids off at school, I am going to work hard to make sure that condition doesn't persist – and I ask you to help too.
For a start – here are some resources/places to engage and stay tuned to the effort:
- www.Momsrising.org
- White House Petition on this
- Move on's petition on this
- www.demandaplan.org – Mayor Bloomberg's NY initiative
Also – call your Mayor's, governor's, and state legislators' offices. There's a lot that can be done locally and not just federally.
Lastly – Take 18 minutes to watch President Obama's speech last night at the Newtown interfaith vigil.
Be ready. Your help will be needed.

I do so love a bit of healthy competition. Nvidia announced today it will purchase chip-maker PortalPlayer for $357 million. PortalPlayer, which supplied Apple chips for its iPods up until this April when Apple switched suppliers, specializes in high-performance system-on-chip (SoC) technology designed for use in mobile media players. With Nvidia's graphics know-how and PortalPlayer's mobile-chip expertise, the combination stands to make a serious dent in ATI's mobile-GPU business.
Currently, Nvidia technology shows up in a few handhelds and mobile phones, but ATI (now AMD) controls the lion's share of the mobile graphics' market with its Imageon chips.

Harsh lesson as Old Woman Island chews up stranded cruiser
A SALVAGE operation is being planned ahead of an expected major south-easterly change on Saturday for a 26-foot motor cruiser that washed on to Old Woman Island on Sunday night.
A Transport and Main Roads spokesman said the owner was responsible for salvage and was currently working on recovering the vessel.
A small amount of petrol remains on board the vessel, which is high aground on rocks on the eastern side of Old Woman Island, also known as Mudjimba Island, which forms part of the Maroochy River Regional Park and is managed by the Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service.
Coastguard Commander Ian Hunt said its Mooloolaba unit was called to attempt a rescue, which was abandoned when the vessel crashed ashore and filled with water.
It is understood that the owner, whose vessel was insured with Suncorp, had jumped overboard with a bag before being rescued by a friend on a jetski.
Mooloolaba Water Police Senior Constable Murray Lyons said the vessel had engine trouble.
"We've had bits of debris coming up on the beach since," Snr Const Lyons said.
"He had some sort of mechanical failure and as a result of that he couldn't manoeuvre and the seas just washed him on to the rocks on the eastern side of Mudjimba Island. It's very unfortunate."
The incident was a timely reminder for boaties to be extra careful around navigational hazards such as sand bars, rocks and reefs, he said.
"You should ensure that you leave enough distance between yourself and the hazard so that if you suffer mechanical failure you have time to deploy your anchor and stop your vessel being swept on to the rocks," he said.
"It is good to always have the anchor ready just in case."
He said an anchor should be dropped about 100m away from the hazard to avoid potential catastrophe.
"That's probably a lesson in this for the poor fella involved," Snr Const Lyons said.
"He would have been on the rocks before he knew what was going on."
