Yeah, yeah, it's only the Europa League and all that but, having already beaten Liverpool and Chelsea this season, City will be keen to embellish their status still further by beating another of Europe's big names. It'll be good for morale and for their cherished brand value.
City: Hart, Boateng, Kompany, K Toure, Zabaleta; Johnson, Vieira, Y Toure, Barry; Adebayor, Tevez
Subs: Given, Milner, Lescott, Silva, Jo, De Jong, Boyata
Juve: Manninger; Grygera, Chiellini, Marchisio, Martinez; Krasic, Bonucci, Sissoko, De Ceglie; Del Piero, Iaquinta
Subs: Storari, Motta, Felipe Melo, Lanzafame, Pepe, Legrottaglie, Giannetti
Ref: Ed Gonzalez (Spain)
Humidity: 78%. Why is humidity important? Maybe you should ask this man.
1 min: Within moments of the kick-off Juve work the ball out to their dangerman and Pavel Nedved lookalike, Krasic. Zabaleta dispossess him quickly.
3 min: After some slow, aimless interplay by City, Juve win back the ball and break at speed. Iaquinta bangs in the first shot of the game, a rasper from 20 yards. Hart parries.
6 min: Del Piero sends in a swirling freekick from 30 yards taht hart fails to hold. Unlike Robert Green on many occasions, however, the keeper did at least succeed in diverting it well away from in-rushing strikers.
8 min: Juve look much more fluent and sprightly than soporific City, whose tameness so far has created a very subdued atmosphere at Eastlands, which far from full. That's all City have created so far.
GOAL! City 0-1 Juventus (Iaquinta 10') Joe Hart, England's No1. Really? He should have saved that, in my opinion. Iaquinta let fly from all of 35 yards and though it took a treacherous nick off Kolo Toure it should not have beaten the keeper. But it did. Let's hope that at least sparks City into life.
12 min: And yes, it turns out there is life in City! Their response has been swift, as they forced two corners in quick succession and got off decent headers from both. To no avail.
14 min: Chiellini dispossesses Barry with a fine tackle and then lunges in to win the ball off Zabaleta too, and follows through to clatter the Argentinian in the face. Just a happy accident as far as he's concerned, and the ref agrees. "Let me guess ... Aquilani has an injury?: quips Ian Copestake after inspecting the Juve team.
17 min: City are very much second best at the moment, they're looking stodgy and one-dimensional. Juve are comfortably the better side so far.
19 min: Close! Tevez, cranking up the tempo of City's play a little, burrows his way into the box before curling the ball just wide from 15 yards.
21 min: From 25 yards out Vieira smashes a shot 25 yards wide.
23 min: The tempo drops ever so slightly as the referees halts play to take a gandedr at Marchisio, who's down feigning injury.
26 min: This is sludge.
28 min: Since City can't seem to cobble together a move of any coordination or urgency, one of their players is going to have to take responsibility and punch an opponent. Or a team-mate. This game needs a jolt. Where's Craig Bellamy when you need him?
31 min: Del Piero lines up a freekick, some 30 yards out and to the right. Instead of shooting he chips the ball into the penalty area, and Kompany nods clear.
33 min: Action! Tevez cliped the ball in from the left and Barry aimed a deft backward header past the keeper ... and off the post! Adebayor couldn't get to the rebound before a defender, but at least the crowd have been brought to life.
GOAL! City 1-1 Juve (Johnson 36') City's passing had been ponderous for most of the half but Yaya Toure decided to increase momentum by stomping forward from midfield before threading a slick ball through to Johnson. Darting in from the right Johnson used his first touch to wrongfoot the keeper and then slotted the ball into the net. Fine goal.
39 min: Krasic falls extravagantly in the box under a challenge from Kompany and the ref blows his whistle ... then strides over and books the Serb for simulation! He certainly exaggerated, but it looked like Kompany did catch him. "What's the protocol on this one?" blurts Jordan Devine before explaining what the hell he's talking about. "Watch my beloved City on the laptop with the sound off and let my girlfriend have sound on the TV? Or watch the match in silence with the audio of a TV show called Pregnant and Obese playing in the background?" Don't they amount to the same thing?
40 min: Corner to Juve. Del Piero drifts it into the centre. Hart punches away. That seems to be a policy decision by him this season - he seeems very reluctant to catch the ball.
43 min: Juve have regained the ascendancy here, their passing more zippy than City's has been at any point tonight.
Half-time: A barely tolerable first period. Juve have shown greater verve and incision, but that's not saying much: City have been quite torpid, though their goal was good.
46 min: City swap: Boyata on, Zabaleta off.
47 min: Del Piero brings a routine save from Hart with a snapshot from 25 yards.
48 min: No immediate sign that City are willing or able to quicken the tempo here. Frankly, for a half a billion pounds I'd expect more than this plod.
50 min: A spell of purposeful play by City ends with Adebayor poking a shot at goal ... from an offside position.
53 min: Juve change: Pepe on, Martinez off. "I'm not sure that any player is worth how much Toure is getting per week, but he's certainly trying!" coos Gautam Bagga. "He's actually looked very impressive this evening."
55 min: Chiellini lurches forward to nod wide from a corner.
58 min: You may not have notice but I craftily replaced 'turgid' with 'torpid' in an earlier post after Gordon McDougall emailed into to question whether turgid was really the right word. It wasn't, of course, which is why I changed it to what I'd originally meant to put. Can you think of any other words that are regularly mis-used? For example, this match might be described in the morning as "absorbing", when the correct word would be "pants".
61 min: Barry booked for a late tackle on Sissoko. Before that, Krasic, according to Five's commentator, had "wandered into the corridor of expectation", which I think means he'd found space on the wing from which to cross. He failed to live up to expectatations, mind, and wafted the ball out of play.
63 min: Toure lifts the ball to Barry, who takes it down on the edge of the area and whacks well wide.
65 min: A deft shimmy from Del Piero outwits Kolo Toure, who inadvertently takes the italian down to concede a freekick about 27 yards out. Del Piero takes it himself and it whizzes just wide.
67 min: Energetic work by Tevez down the left. He then curls a cross towards Adebayor, who heads wide from six yards and looks to the skies as if it's all the fault of god or Rod Hull or someone.
69 min: Yaya Toure storms down the left before feeding Adebayopr, who is quickly surrounded by three defenders. The chance dies. "My favourite mi-used word is obtuse, which is nearly always used to mean obscure but actually means stupid," lectures Dennis Mumby. "As in, 'your MBM is particularly obtuse this evening'. Just kidding!"
71 min: Another lull. "You are quite right that Krasic looks like Juve legend Pavel Nedved<" confirms Ian Burch. "At the same time Adebayor is looking more and more like Man City legend Lee Bradbury."
72 min: Juve change: Motta on, De Ceglie off.
73 min: Grygera booked for a bodycheck on Johnson that curtailed a promising City counter-attack.
74 min: City change: The ineffective Adebayor trudges off, Silva scampers on.
76 min: Thank Faust Juve are making another substitution - Krasic off, Melo on - otherwise I'd have nothing at all to report.
78 min: Constipation. "Can I be obvious?" requests Robin Hazlehurst. "My favourite mis-used word is 'defender', when applied to... oh go on, you finish it. Liverpool and Arsenal might be good starting points. Or 'world-class' (ok, two words) when used by pretty much anyone in football."
80 min: Barry tries to put Johnson through down the left. Instead Barry hits the ball out of play.
81 min: Pong. "It's not exactly a misused word but consider 'cleave', if you will," suggests Jozef O'Shea. "It means both to split apart but also to join closely with. Weird, eh? By the way, why don't Uefa make this competition a straight, bipedal knockout contest? It's awful as it is now."
83 min: Juventus have settled for the draw, and City don't look good enough to deprive them off it.
84 min: City change: Boateng off, Milner on. Barry drops back to left-back, it seems.
86 min: Felipe Melo makes a sudden dart through midfield before supplying Iaquinta, who is bundled over by Barry. Freekick in a dangerous position - about 25 yards out. And Del Piero sends it over the wall and past Hart - it crashes down off the crossbar and bounces on the line and out! What an escape for City and Hart, who again failed to track the shot from distance.
88 min: It looks like we may have a bit of excitement at the death here, as Tevez and Silva both threatened in the Juve box. Ultimately, though, all City got was a corner.
90 min: There will be three more minutes.
90+1 min: Smart defending by Kolo Toure to shepherd Pepe away as he sought space in the box for a shot.
90+2 min: Sissoko opens fire from 25 yards and his stray shot hits a cameraman.
Full-time: There were a handful of decent moments in that match but overall it was a very boring game. Fair result, at least. Thank you and goodbye.

Finding Nimmo. "Angelina Jolie may be considered the Leni Riefenstahl of her generation." Thus spake Kurt Nimmo. Give me a shill. An estranged nobody. Let me feed her with delusions of relevance and brilliance. Let her serve as globalist dupe. CFR shill. Perfect.Look at that KONY 2012 drivel. She bought it, hook line and stinker. Amazing. And she's digging the new image. Jon Voight's little girl showing daddy that she's something. Kinda like that walking steamer trunk of emotional baggage, Mourning Joe potted plant, killjoy and political payback, Mika Brzezinski, living in the shadow of globalist daddy Zbigniew and bro Mark, the Ambassador. It's deep. Trust me. The gravamen of my indictment is that Americans neither question nor care about talking heads on the screen.
Enjoy this effort of mine. And thank you.
The Devil: the great myth of them all. Since I was a kid, no religious myth captivated my attention and imagination more then El Diablo. He/It was the greatest man-made creation that personified "evil" and gave a basis to religious Mafiosi for scaring the shite out of the deluded and easily led. But where did the myth come from? This is a fascinating documentary.
LOTUS speaks. In spades.

I'm done with cooked food. I feel terrible after eating it. Cooked food is high glycemic, it's highly imbalanced, it's toxic, it's poisonous. I've done with so much research now on it and realized the HORRIBLE effects that it has on my body, so I'm done with all cooked food.
I just want someone to witness that I'm going 100% raw and staying. So if anyone is here reading this, I just want you to have my word and witness that I'm going and STAYING now 100% raw. If you have the same…

how goes your family's farming venture in the Caribbean?
Hey David! Just popping in to say hello! I hope that you are having a great day :)
Hi David, As with anywhere there are pros and cons, the pros to living here is the beach, warm weather, small town feel, tropical fruits in season, west indian culture, majority black/west indian government, part of the USA etc... the cons are cost of living and food prices very high and higher as you go further "down island" to St. John and the BVI, relatively high crime (nothing like the states), lots of traffic for a tiny place, and tickets to the states are more expensive. I have lived here four years, there is a pretty conscious community here, more people are waking up to health and environmental issues and making changes, I don't know any raw 100% fooders, but its a very vegan friendly place i.e. restaurants. there is one lady who is doing transition to raw and raw food vending at the farmers market, but we don't need a restaurant to eat fruit! Lots of coconuts :) Thanks for asking, I hope you find your new home soon :)
you made me laugh :)
what about you, what are you eating over there?

Stockbridge cafe, culinary landmark in downtown Shelton, closes
It appears that after nearly 15 years, Stockbridge Gourmet Cheesecake & Cafe in downtown Shelton may have closed its doors.
A "For Lease" sign has been placed on the inside near the Howe Avenue establishment's entrance, and the words "Closed" appear on a hand-written sign taped to the front door. Interior shades in the cafe are all the way down, covering the windows.
The bistro's website (sbcheesecakes.com) and Facebook page seem to have been disabled and taken down. "We apologize for the inconvenience, but unfortunately this website is currently unavailable," states a message at the website address.
Another website used by the business, perhaps more for its retail line (stockbridgescheesecakes.com), also is not active at this time.
And when calling Stockbridge's phone number, a "we're sorry your call cannot be completed at this time, please try again later" message answers.
'Family-owned business'
The company — best known for its cheesecake — had expanded its operations to Woodbridge in recent years. That establishment later closed.
The owners are husband and wife Brian and Lisa Stockbridge, who have promoted the firm as "a local, family-owned business."
"Thanks for being a part of our little corner of the world here in Shelton, where we are proud to serve you delicious desserts, treats, and home-style meals," says the establishment's promotional material.
(Story continues below)
Nearby business owners react to apparent closing:
According to a 2008 New York Times article, Brian Stockbridge grew up in California and moved east to attend the Culinary Institute of America in suburban New York. "Everything is made from scratch, right in the back of the store," he said of the cafe when talking to a Times reporter.
It appears the business first opened in 2000.
Named state's best cheesecake 10 times
Stockbridge was named the best cheesecake in the state by Connecticut magazine for 10 years in a row, from 2002-2012.
"How much do we love cheesecake? Dare we say it's up there with the wife and kids?" Connecticut magazine wrote. "Bottom line is we know a good cheesecake when we taste one. And there isn't one better than the New York-style citrus cheesecake at Stockbridge's."
The bakery has sold many kinds of specialty cheesecakes, such as pumpkin, raspberry swirl, Kahlua, cranberry-orange and lavender-honey. The cheesecakes have been carried by some grocery stores in the region, including Stew Leonard's.
The Shelton location at 509-A Howe Ave. has been open Tuesday to Sunday, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner most days. It has offered a variety of baked goods and desserts in addition to cheesecakes, such as scones, pastries, cookies, brownies, and cakes.
Stockbridge also has hosted high afternoon teas, showcasing an assortment of teas.

Please send in any feedback if there are issues. Thanks

With a jpg image it would never have worked, does not even show up in list in bootskin. You would not have been able to see the preview of it let alone apply it and reboot to test it. It is your responsibility as a skinner to make sure it works before you upload it for others to use.

Björk reveals potential album name to Nowness: Utopia
During the 50 minutes interview for Nowness Björk, together with Andrew Thomas Huang, talked a lot about the creation process behind the single "the Gate" and her upcoming album. She revealed that releasing "the Gate" has been cathartic, thrilling.
The gate it's about a metaphysical thing where the oval shape restores and becomes a gate. Tt's about exchanging energy.
The video has futuristic features, it's a sorta of follow-up to what has been done before for Vulnicura. The special costume designed by Alessandro Michele, creative director for Gucci, it's one thing together with the video and the mask.
Björk said that "the Gate" it's about two lovers passing the prism of love. She was sketching in a diary what would happen after the wound in Vulnicura. The wound would split in different colors like a prism. So this was leitmotiv that linked the costume to the mask, music and film.
She said Arca, with his dignity and elegance, brought her back to a more equal basis. He had a look to her old repertory, especially b-sides as "Batabid", trying to kind linking them. The new album will feature an Icelandic flutes section made of 12 pieces; it will be a little about the air, sinthy flutes, joy and darkness. Björk still does not know how the album will be presented on her next tour.
About the future i don't want to say too much, several ideas going on, I will solve the riddle how to perform this album live.
She finally reveled a potential name for the album: "UTOPIA":
I had tons of name suggestion, I am going call it "Utopia", I can't think anything better-but may happen that name could change. I like the think that sort of a cliche thing and fascistic "i like the world being like this"

This recipe does not require any explanations – It is very very simple to make, and the final result is very delicate, and very tasty (and may I add- very addictive!).
A few words about poppy seed- this recipe requires using ground poppy seed. I didn`t have any, but if you an get it, please make sure to use poppy seed that was grounded in the same day, or that was grounded and then frozen, at the same day. Be very careful with store bought poppy seed, since they tend to be bitter, and may ruin whatever you cook.
Also, if you would like to add a bit more lemon to these cookies, you could roll the unbaked cookie log with granulated sugar with a lot of lemon zest. Then, simply slice into rounds and bake as written in the recipe.

Contact SC here. Click here for how trophies are calculated. Click here to see how war map placement of max halls is determined. An idea to improve legends here. I wish max players had a separate loot bank as described here. Caution, I often discuss for the sake of discussion and enjoy having my opinion challenged (or approved of) even when I care little about the actual issue. My balance wish: get rid of tornado trap, make it a decoration.
It doesn't work in the same way as normal Clan War matching at all, as there is no attempt to match by weight/TH. It just builds up until it has a large pool of clans waiting, then selects 8 from that pool at random. By the time you get late into the second day, there aren't all that many clans still searching, so it takes longer to build the pool up large enough.
At the end of the search period, it just takes all those left and splits them into leagues of 8 or fewer. I think the minimum size they use for one league is 6, so there could be 3-4 leagues in one tier with fewer than 8 in theme.
The reason for building up a large pool is to prevent collusion by clans starting the search at the same time to be matched together.
[/quote]I had heard in past for Regular Clan War that restarting will narrow the search back to original parameters of the
War Match Search Algorithm and prevent the wide swings we sometimes saw. Dont know if that's still true (or was it ever?)
I'm not sure if it still makes a difference for classic war searches. I seem to recall Darian saying it doesn't any more, but I can't find that, so I could be misremembering.
Thanks TerMinus Prime for the sig pic

The question examined how the structure of communication style differ with sex and age among high school aged people. This study took place in a small Southeastern New York Town and involve male and female high school students, who are members of a local church youth group. The examiner observed the group in the following areas of communications: (1) degree of attention; (2) degree of relaxation; (3) degree of animation; and (4) degree of dominance. Data gathered on a chart of the above-mentioned categories.
The findings showed that there was a difference in the above-mentioned categories dealing with high school aged people. There is a noticeable change in the percent difference in the four areas of communication.
The following study examines the structure of communications style and the association between such variables as sex, age and self-concept. First order analysis has indicated the existence of communication dimensions as the following: attention; relaxation; animation; and dominance. (Hansford and Hattie, 1982, p. 189).
To elaborate a bit more in the area, some examples are necessary. (Attention as it applies to this study is when and how is a subject attentive.( This would mean, if a subject is attentive in a group type setting, there what is the subject gaining from the conversation. Relaxation, as applied to this study, is simply how relaxed the individual is, and does the subject act in a relaxed or nervous manner when put in a group setting? Animation would consist of facial and body movement. (Dominance, as applied to this study, consists of how dominant a person can be.( Dominance can be shown in many ways, but the main way is usually how the figure takes control of situations, which can range from group activity to an emergency situation. A dominant person is the one who usually stands out in a group.
The second order analysis has suggested that these dimensions had an underlying structure that suggested and described attention supported style and animation-dominance style. In the research that has been conducted, a strong association was found between attention supportive communication style and self-concept. The most fascinating piece of evidence to support this was found among high school students. The high school students thought of themselves as being relaxed and attentive, very low on communication, apprehension, and having a positive view of their image of the communication process. (Hansford and Hattie, 1982, p. 189).
Over the years there has been a long history of literature that supports the theory of a relationship between conceptions, self, and communication. In the early nineteenth century, authors such as (Baldwin (1897) and James (1890)( were in favor of making a connection between self-perceptions and communication. (Hansford and Hattie, 1982, pp. 189-190). However, in 1902, Cooley came up with the "Looking Glass: Self Theory." It was this theory that popularized the belief that "the self" was, to a considerable extent, a function of the social world. This would be defined as the interaction of humans in a social environment. (Hansford and Hattie, 1982, pp. 189-190). In recent years the development of the interactionist self-theory has projected that in the social world the concept of the self has potential cause and effect of social interaction. This theory between self-perceptions and communication as a whole is demonstrated by the implication of the work of Coopersmith (1967), Glauser (1984), and Shranger (1975).
An examination of classrooms indicates the diversity of the dependence on the communication process. (Hurt, Scott, and McCroskey 1978, pp. 138-145). There are a number of reasons why some children use the communication process to their advantage and other children do not. One reason put forward is the child's desire to have a good solid relationship with others, especially teachers. This desire that a child feels is clearly related to how the child perceives him or herself. (Hurt, Scott, and McCroskey 1978, pp. 138-145). The example is a direct link to the self-concept theory. Given the diversity of communication skills and styles in classrooms, and the fact that problems such as language differences among the student population, it does not surprise scholars (that much of the instructional communication integrates give different interpretations of the self-theory.(
Research that generally links the perceptions of self to communication usually looks at communications and its behavior with the exception of communication apprehension, tends to be somewhat fragmented and of theoretical rather than empirical in nature. For example, some experts have assumed that individuals that are high in self-esteem are more verbal and more competent communicators than those low in self-esteem. (Hansford and Hattie 1983, p. 115).
In a study involving 292 undergraduates, Glauser (1984) examined the relationship between self-esteem and verbal dominance and reported a correlation between the variables. (Hansford 1984, pp. 200-201). In 1980, Hansford and Neidhart performed a study with 463 high school girls. A significant relation was found between self-concept and communication skills and a relation between each of the subscales. Norton (1983) has indicated that an important aspect of communication process is the way individuals communicate with each other. This aspect of communicating is referred to as communicator style. Communicator style, according to Norton (1983), is the observable, multifaceted form of literal meaning. An examination of the findings provides the investigator with support for the theory of a significant association between the self and specific communication skills of humans. In certain studies, like the study completed by the Journal of Learning Disabilities (Volume 16, November 10, 1983), this study compared the language abilities of 7 to 8 and 12 to 13 year-old children with learning disabilities. Another interesting study was completed by the same Journal, wherein this study compared the learning disabled children with their siblings, in terms of their self-concept and retention level. These studies dealt with self-perceptions and behavior. It has been determined by the researchers, that it is not unusual to find differences that deal with sex and age differential. The remaining focused on the investigator's current study of perceptions of self and communicator style, the investigator does see evidence that points out that there are differences relating to sex and age. However, what was concluded was that on a balance, there was evidence to support the notion of sex differences in self-concept. (Hansford and Hattie, 1983, p. 191).
In a longitudinal study, the scholars looked at the adolescent self-concept. The findings again showed the existence of sex difference but it was noted that these differences are related to very specific aspects of the self. (Similarly age and grade differences in self-concept did not resemble the other adolescent samples.(
In an overview of the investigator's findings, it would seem that there is some type of evidence to support the connection between some measures of self and certain communication skills. Current studies such as Differential Genetic Etiology of Reading Disability as a function of IQ and communication apprehension are underway to clarify the nature of relationship that could exist between the various types of self-perceptions among high school students. (Wadworth, Olson, Pennington, and DeFries 2000, pp. 192-199, Differential Genetic Etiology and Reading Disability As A Function IQ and Communication Apprehension, Journal of Learning Disabilities).
In particular, the investigator researched the following questions: (1) What is the underlying factor structure of communicator styles in data obtained from high school students? (2) To what extent are these dimensions of communication style moderated by sex and age? (3) What relationships exists between the dimensions of self and dimensions of communicator styles as a reflection in data obtained from high school students? (Monge, P.R., 1987, Communication Research, Vol. 14, No. 2, pp. 189-203).
(Another model was used, as suggested above, for the underlying of other methods that have not taken shape as of this moment.( The first of the second-order factors was described as animation and dominance; the scales animation and dominance were left alone, while the other scales were factored in to be near zero. (Burns, 1979, p. 194). The other second-order factor was supportive and attention, and the scales apprehension, attention, relaxation and communicator image were constrained to zero. In constraining scales that amount to zero it is possible that the scales are not expected to factor into the equation. In the judgment of the experts, it is assumed that this model and data are acceptable. (Schmitt and Wolfe (1978-1981, pp. 195-196). In constraining scales to zero, it is predicted that they are not expected to contribute to the factor. The fit of this model is acceptable. (See Appendix).
The past twenty years of research on instructional communication has identified several relations that are positively related to self-concept and learning. An example of this would be learning disabilities among high-school aged people and understanding the student-to-student and student-to-teacher relationship and how it results in learning. The investigator performed observations and a study to compare similarities in the numbers of the previous mentioned studies. The experiment functioned around a youth group, grade level ten through twelve. The following numbers were based on the perceptions from the investigation and those who performed the investigation.
(Bievenue, M.M. (1978)( states that perceptions of communication and the self-concept theory play a major role in child development. Bievenu states that a child's perception of itself plays a vital role in its development in the years to come. According to Bievenue, the child must have a good sense about their inner self in order to compete in society. (Perceptions of communication and self-concept showed the researcher some major findings in communication and self-concept.( This applies to the investigators project through child development during the teenage years.
Burns, R.B. (1989), adds to this statement by introducing the self-concept theory in the social world. The purpose of this statement is for the investigator to gain knowledge in the process of communication as seen through the child's eyes. Motor skill development plays a major theme in children right through the high school years.
(Dusek, J.B. & Flaherty, J.F. (1981)( talk about verbal dominance with regards to teenagers. This is a major factor in terms of self-confidence during high school years. The dominance factor can make or break a student's self-concept.
Glauser, M.J. (1984) states that apprehension in today's classroom is caused by what happens outside of the classroom. Glauser states that this problem can range from peer pressure to family life. This showed the investigator how what happens outside the classroom could affect a student's apprehension to communicate.
Hansford, B.C. & Hattie, J.A. (1982), demonstrate the importance of classroom communication. This is shown to the investigator through communication apprehension during the teen years. Hansford and Hattie state from their own studies such as the Hansford and Hattie apprehension study of high school students, that apprehension is a drawback to success among high school students.
Monge, P.R. (1997), communication research and how it applies to different theories such as the self-concept theory and the famous Looking Glass Theory: developed by Cooley. More importantly, it applies to the study of graphs and charts, which relate to the investigation.
Schmitt and Wolfe (1990) compare the perceptions of communication style and its relationship to self-concept. (A relationship that ties into the image of the student as viewed from their peers.(
Special Education Services Oregon Department of Education (1989), Standardized Language and Communication Development. A language test comparison over a one-year period. A development of language skills among high school students. The investigator viewed sample exams, but no conclusions could be drawn.
Wadworth, Olson, Pennington, and DeFries (2000) state that there is a genetic difference between the learning disabled and the non-disabled student. What that difference is, is not known at the present time. According to the experts, it is a function of IQ and communication apprehension.
Wylie, (1990) goes over in detail the self-concept theory and how it relates to communication and the high school years. Wylie gives sample studies that have been done in the past, such as the study of the learning disabled child in the mainstream classroom. This study compared the reading scores of the learning disabled child against the non-learning disabled child. No scores were available to the investigator.
The group consisted of ten high school students from a small southeastern town in New York. The youth group consisted of six females and four males. The session was forty minutes long and covered four areas of communication: (1) Degree of Attention; (2) Degree of Relaxation; (3) Degree of Animation; and (4) Degree of Dominance. Two studies took place on two separate dates, and two examiners reviewed the sessions, with special emphasis being put on the first five minutes of each session. Data collection was done with a check, upon which the results will constitute the method.
There are ten students that participate in the youth group. The participants consists of male and female high school students and each person participating in the experiment would equal 10%.
Using the data collection that was created earlier, the results of the observation of the first meeting are as follows: Degree of attention: females (6) = 60%; males (1) showed signs of attention = 10%; males (3) showed signs of no attention = 30%. Degree of relaxation: females (5) showed signs of relaxation = 50%; (1) showed no signs of relaxation = 10%; males (3) showed signs of relaxation = 30%; (1) showed no signs of relaxation = 10%. Degree of animation: females (2) showed signs of animation = 20%; (4) showed no signs of animation = 40%; males (3) showed signs of animation = 30%; (1) undecided = 10%. Degree of dominance: females (1) showed clear signs of dominance = 10%; (5) showed no signs of dominance = 50%; males (2) showed signs of dominance = 20%; (2) showed no signs of dominance = 20%.
The observation of the second meeting showed: Degree of attention: females (4) showed signs of attention = 40%; (1) showed no signs of attention = 10%; (1) undecided = 10%; males (3) showed signs of attention = 30%; (1) showed no signs of attention = 10%. Degree of relaxation: females (4) showed signs of relaxation = 40%; (1) showed no signs of relaxation = 10%; (1) undecided = 10%; males (4) showed signs of relaxation = 40%. Degree of animation: females (3) showed signs of animation = 30%; (1) showed no signs of animation = 10%; (2) undecided = 20%; males (2) showed signs of animation = 20%; (1) showed no signs of animation = 10%; (1) undecided = 10%. Degree of dominance: females (1) showed clear dominance = 10%; (5) showed no signs of dominance = 50%; males (2) showed signs of dominance = 20%; (2) showed no signs of dominance = 20%. The investigator's results show that there is a difference in degree of communication in the above-mentioned categories that took place on two separate dates. (See Appendix).
Through these studies it has been found that the male high school students had significantly higher mean score than their female counterparts. This was tied into the dimensions relaxation at (.096), dominance (.269) and impression at (.105). The female high school students had significantly higher mean scores than their male counterparts with respect to the dimension animation (-.121). An examination of the mean differences associated with overall grade differences, showed signs that the scores for apprehension increased and the scores in the area of relaxation and animation showed signs of decrease. (Dusek 1979, pp. 196-198). This grade level difference in the area of communication also reflects an age difference among the participants. It is interesting to take notice of the fact that the sex differences are largely associated with aspects of the animation-dominance communicator style and the grade and age difference with special attention to the style of communication that one chooses to use.
A correlation analysis was completed on the two styles of dimensions and another analysis was carried out on the self-concept dimensions. (Wylie 1990, p. 199 Vol. 2 The Self-Concept Theory Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press). What were found were two significant variants. With this being said, it would indicate to the investigator that the first variant would account for 60.6% of the variance, within the set of variants and that the second variant for 43.1% of variance. An examination of the chart would suggest that the supportive-attention communicator style was ranked highest on the first variant and the various dimensions of self-concept tend to have their highest ranking located on the same variable. This would prove from the numbers given to the investigator, that high school students who perceived themselves as being low in apprehensiveness and ranked high in attention, relaxation, and communicator image were also found to consider themselves to be high in self-concept. (Glauser 1984, pp. 198-201). The animation-dominance communicator style had its highest ranking on the second canonical variants and the dimensions of the self generally did not prove to have a positive impact on the participants. In fact, it appears to the investigator that the numbers would suggest that the styled dimensions would be associated with low self-concept and communications. (Hansford and Hattie, 1983, pp. 115-202). Given the fact that this method was attached to an animation-dominance communicator style, it may have been anticipated in the view of the investigator that students would also perceive themselves as one of high self-concept, but that appears not to be the case in this study.
The findings from this study will be compared to a similar type of study that was conducted in this area of communication. An example of another type of experiment would be the assessment of language development among high school students. This experiment looked at the standardized measure of language competence for high school students in a group setting. The experiment involved language competence and communication context. (Special Education Services Oregon Department of Education, 1989, pp. 1-4). (See Appendix).
The study of communication style and self-concept in high school students had three main points. First, was the exploration of dimensions of the communicator style. Secondly, the investigator examined the possibility of age and sex differences in the dimension of the communicator and the dimensions of self-concept.
A communication theory was developed from the previous research of Hansford and Hattie, 1983. The research completed by the investigator demonstrates a modification of two communicator styles and an index of problems related to communication apprehension and the self. The results show that the communication among group members contained the following style dimensions: attention; relaxation; animation; and dominance. The results of the above-mentioned provide the investigator with strong support for all conclusions drawn by dimensions of the communication process. However, after further review of the analysis, the results have suggested that the factors of the equation have an underlying structure that is defined by two dimensions of the communication style. These dimensions reflect supportive, attention, and animation-dominance communicator styles. (Wadworth, Olson, Pennington, and DeFries, 2000, Volume 33, Journal of Learning Disabilities). It would be worth noting that the two dimensions of style reported in this study are related to the attention and dominance study, which was done by Norton in 1983. As research in this field continues through the years, it is possible to link this study to the work of Norton. In discussing the results, Norton suggests that one continuum within the data reflects nondirective communicative activity. Clearly, the animation-dominance and supportive-attentive dimensions relate to this suggested continuum (Norton 1983, p. 80).
What the investigator found in high school students, that there were sex and age differences in their communication style. The difference in sex was largely related to the animation dominance dimensions and the age difference leaned toward the supportive-attention dimension. The major contributions to the overall sex differences came from all male students having the higher mean score than did their female counterparts with respect to dominance and impression, leaving aspects in the area of animation-dominance style. Female students did however come up with a higher mean score in the area of nonverbal behavior (facial gestures or cues). In the view of the findings that have been put before the investigator, it may be within reason to anticipate that females would have a greater propensity to be more attentive than males. After further investigation of the findings, it turns out that in reality both male and female had near identical scores.
Following a literature review with regards to the existence of sex differences in the area of interpersonal relations, Montgomery and Norton (1981) came to the conclusion that a large but very fragmented body of findings suggests that both men and women differ significantly in the area of interpersonal communication. The difference lies in the area of perception, how the male and female perceive each other to be intellectual and aggressive. However, following the analysis of data from two samples, Montgomery and Norton (1981) stated that "Men and women sampled for these studies differed relatively little in their perceptions of their own communication style." (Montgomery and Norton 1981, pp. 132-200). The fact that the sexes associated with the above-mentioned statement are not taken into consideration, leads the investigator to believe that there is not enough evidence to support such a statement. The data that were collected from the high school students from Australia consisted of a younger age group from a socio-cultural setting may be dissimilar to that used in the United States studies. It does not surprise the investigator that perceptions of male and female adolescents are different. Given the age group studied here, the students would be expected to adhere strongly to traditional roles dealing with both male and female behavior.
In regard to the age, the mean difference was developed from the supportive attention dimension meaning (apprehension and relaxation), and the other one being from animation-dominance dimension. The studies show as the high school students increased in age, their apprehension scores increased and their relaxed behavior decreased. The reason for these changes in behavior patterns cannot be determined in this type of study, but it would be interesting to look at the role of high school education procession in these outcomes.
Out of all the theories that have been discussed, only one of the general dimensions of communicator style was found to be positively related with the dimensions of self-concept. Students who believed that they exhibit such active communicative behaviors, as dominance and impression-leaving styles, did not rate themselves high in the area of self-concept. A conclusion like this, in keeping intact with Glauser's (1984) findings that saw self-esteem and self-perceptions of verbal dominance are independent of each other. However, students who rank high in supportive and attention behavior and rank low in communication apprehension did perceive themselves as being rated high in the various areas of the self, meaning (self-concept). Previous research has been done by (McCroskey, Daly, Richmond and Falcione (1977)(, and reported an association between apprehension and the self. But there was no evidence found to link the communication styles together with the philosophy to self-concept. The above-mentioned research was performed in the area of learning disabilities.
All findings that have been reported on in this study were obtained from a large population. Although, in the view of the investigator, more research would be needed to be able to identify and clarify the dimensions of communicator style in other type settings, such as the area of education. This study clearly provided evidence from the charts that relates to the structure of communication style among high school students, the male-female role, and age differential. In the interpretation of these findings, it should be noted that the data for both measures of self and communication style are considered to be based on perceived assessments. The extent to which these perceptions are indications of actual communicator style and self-concept is not precisely known. Clearly research that related these self-perceptions to observed behaviors would further the investigator's understanding of the relationships examined in the current study. (Hansford 1984, pp. 200-201).
In closing, further recordings would include an examination of the college age student, because it is easier to get the information at the undergraduate level. Future projects for the investigator to research could very well be the self-concept theory and the learning disabled child. The investigator feels that there is a connection between self-concept and learning disabilities. The perception could come in many forms, but mainly how teachers perceive the learning-disabled child and how teachers perceive the learning disabled child as compared to the non-learning disabled child. It is clear that a great deal of work needs to be done in the field of communication and self-concept, especially among the younger students. This was a challenging and demanding paper from the investigator's standpoint, but one that could very well help a student struggling with communications and the self. The better a student feels about his or herself, the better that a student will perform. The self-concept theory should be a very important tool used in the educational process.

The country's universal health care system is brought into the debate on Obama's plans for reform.
Press Release – Wired PR News – The universal health care system in place in Canada has come under scrutiny as those opposing President Barack Obama's plans for health care reform attempt to paint it in a negative light. As reported by the Associated Press (AP), many in Canada have come to the defense of their system, which is designed to ensure that critical health care is provided to all in need.
Policy analyst Dr. Michael M. Rachlis, is quoted by the AP as stating of the issue, "We've heard talk in the U.S. that you may die here because of long wait times, you can't choose the doctors or the care you want and that the government makes your health decisions for you, but none of that is really true… I think there's a lot that the U.S. could learn from Canada."
Despite the widespread support for Canadian Medicare, many reportedly continue to debate whether a private sector should also be included in the system.

Get It Here http://kan.gd/frm
OK, noobie here,
Please be gentle, I don't have a tablet although by everything I've seen, the transformer will be the one for me. I've read over and over again how rooting your tablet is the best thing to do since bread slicers were invented.
Simple question though. What do I gain by rooting my Transformer ( when they actually ship it in North America ) ?
That's it,
OK, cool, thanks for the invite.
Next question. If I root my Transformer, and ASUS puts out another version of their "ROM", will I be able to use the ASUS "ROM" ? Or once I root, I cannot go back ?
I obviously don't have a preference since I don't have a tablet yet. I've read how everyone loves the ROMS that out there ( Cyanogen, Vegan, TNT..... ) especially for the G-tab. I love overclockin, especially if you can notice the difference in apps like video playback and such.
For me, modding my soon-to-hold transformer isn't a done deal unless I know that whatever mod I do will enhance what I have, rather than simply replacing what I have. Does that make sense ?
So rooting will allow me to install different mods, and to get access at a deeper level to some of the inner gizzards of the tablet. Very cool.
Anything else it gives me ?

ENTP Weaknesses
Very Argumentative - If there's anything ENTPs enjoy, it's the mental exercise of debating an idea, and nothing is sacred. More consensus-oriented personality types rarely appreciate the vigor with which ENTP personalities tear down their beliefs and methods, leading to a great deal of tension.
Insensitive - Being so rational, ENTPs often misjudge others feelings and push their debates well past others' tolerance levels. People with this personality type don't really consider emotional points to be valid in such debates either, which magnifies the issue tremendously.
Intolerant - Unless people are able to back up their ideas in a round of mental sparring, ENTPs are likely to dismiss not just the ideas but the people themselves. Either a suggestion can stand up to rational scrutiny or it's not worth bothering with.
Can Find It Difficult to Focus - The same flexibility that allows ENTPs to come up with such original plans and ideas makes them readapt perfectly good ones far too often, or to even drop them entirely as the initial excitement wanes and newer thoughts come along. Boredom comes too easily for ENTPs, and fresh thoughts are the solution, though not always a helpful one.
Dislike Practical Matters - ENTPs are interested in what could be – malleable concepts like ideas and plans that can be adapted and debated. When it comes to hard details and day-to-day execution where creative flair isn't just unnecessary but actually counter-productive, ENTP personalities lose interest, often with the consequence of their plans never seeing the light of day.

Frank Lloyd Wright's 1938 'Dream House' for Life magazine, described here at Life.Com.
"Space," says Wright, in a letter to the clients describing the house, "is characteristic of this free pattern for a freer life than you could possibly live in the conventional house." The house is a two-zoned open and flowing plan "with special privacies, ultra conveniences and style all the while." Said Life magazine in 1938:
Note the L-shaped double fireplace. By means of folding screens, the dining and ground-floor sleeping spaces can be thrown into the living-recreation room and the whole space, treated as a kind of enclosed patio, can be thrown open to the outdoors... For privacy, [the clients] may close off their ground-floor bedroom, leaving it open to the garden, and [their two children] may retreat to their bedrooms at either end of the second floor, which are separated by a guest room in the middle. Mr. Wright has thoughtfully placed [the husband's] office next to the kitchen so that [his wife] can answer the telephone for him when he is away from home...
Life magazine had set up the 'Dream House' series as a competition between traditionalists and so-called modernists. Time magazine called Wright's design a "walkaway [victory] for the moderns ... which reduced the merit of [the more traditional] design to that of a safe investment."

The work is made according to the most common visual angle of about 45°in landscape photography in the hope that it can present the space at utmost. The objects are basic elements of artificial materials, e.g. silk, monocolored sheet, rice paper, black chemical fabric, cardboard, plastic patch, plastic paper, LCD, etc. Large format camera is used to display essential details.
If seen from far, the work seems to have no specific look and meaning, which is just concolorous similar plane. As for common visual experience, watching in distance can judge an overall trend and shape of objects as well as perspective space. However, in this series, the criterion for judgement given by nature and cognition of basic elements are dispelled by the repetitive shape of objects substantively.
If seen at short range, those repetitive details filled with veins are obvious. We can see the perspective tracks of space with these details, yet we can not have certain feeling about the entire perspective of objects. Here, this kind of judgement is also dispelled by the object itself. The judgemental illusion of object's original meaning and the 'truth' of cognition become focal points of contradictions.
The object is still the same. The space is also that perspective one. What changes is the judgemental criterion which is nearly out of control due to the original image of the most basic shape and structure. Although objective, how will it be when facing people? It shall be a personal choice. It is via this extension of microcosmic and macroscopic cognition that criterion for judgement is defined.
After all, the reification of work is subject to paradoxical circle just like when we speak something out, we simultaneously keep a longer distance with the original form of it.
This work causes in 2006, until now was still continuing.

"It is Advantageous to be a Competent English Speaker Nowadays" Long time ago, miscommunications is one of the biggest problem around the globe. A lot of foreign people couldn't understand and couldn't communicate as well. Of course, it is really hard to talk to someone who couldn't understand on what your mouth is saying and we can't deny that it can create chaos to other. But English language nowadays is introduced to us, for us able to understand with each other, for us to express our feelings and emotions, to share our thoughts and opinions, and to socialize with other foreign people.
In this modern generation, there are a lot of English speakers scattered across the globe. Some of them are having a hard time just to speak English and some of them speak fluently. But, they used to be an English speaker even though it's hard; for they all know that it is really advantageous. It is advantageous for us students to know how to be an English speaker because, in the near future it is possible for us to work abroad and with that, while we're studying we should all be globally competitive enough and ready to face heavier challenges in life.
I strongly believed that not all people who knew how to speak English were smart and above all individuals. But, the real intelligent individual is how you use and understand English as a language and how you use language to speak competently with the other foreign people. Right now, I am using English language to communicate and share my thoughts to you. But I am not saying that I'm already a competent English speaker; this is just my opinion about how to be an advantageous competent English speaker.

http://www.menheniot.cornwall.sch.uk/curriculum/We aim to ensure that all pupils become fluent in the fundamentals of mathematics, are able to reason mathematically and are able to solve mathematical problems. We encourage our children to apply their maths across the curriculum and we provide them with plenty of opportunities to do so. In Key Stage 1, we aim to ensure that pupils develop confidence and mental arithmetic skills with numbers, counting and place value. This includes developing their understanding of the four operations (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing), measurement, data handling and shape through the use of practical resources.
In Key stage 2 we aim to ensure that all children develop efficient and written methods and that they are able to perform calculations accurately with larger numbers. They are expected to have memorised their multiplication tables up to 12 x by the end of Year 4 and they will be developing confidence in working with fractions and decimals. Measuring, shape and space and data-handling will also be taught in greater depth. By Year 5 and 6, pupils are expected to be able to undertake long multiplication and division and to be proficient in all number operations and in working with fractions, decimals and percentages.
