I'm one of about twelve people in the world who doesn't have a Facebook profile -- or whatever they're called.
Here's why:
1) I've heard anecdotal (e.g on news programs) instances of people closing out their Facebook account, only to find that after a while it gets re-activated for you. Also that even when you close out your account, all your data is retained.
2) My understanding (and limited experience) is that one can not view another person's Facebook page unless you have a Facebook acount. This is in contrast to (most) blogs, corporate/organizational/individual websites, MySpace, and others. I can accept not being able to post **comments** unless one is a member, or if it's a service to which one subscribes -- but to not even be able to **view** a page unless one is a member seems exclusionary, and a bit "precious" (an Aussie term). So, "Thbbbbtttt!!!" to Facebook. (Addendum: I've been informed that this isn't always true. OK -- fair enough.)
3) According to Wil Wheaton's blog, Facebook has an ongoing habit of (a) steamrolling over privacy issues, (b) exercising poor data security, and (c) activating "features" on accounts, thereby forcing people to opt **out** (as opposed to Blogspot/Gmail, which tends to hound you about new features, but generally has an "opt in" approach). No thanks; not the sort of people I like to interact with.
4) That facial recognition stuff is freaky. Although it's the new reality, so in a few years it'll be unavoidable.
5) I don't feel the need. Everyone I really need to communicate with online, I do through e-mail.
6) I really don't need yet another username and account. I have too many online accounts/usernames/passwords as it is.
7) I arguably spend too much time online (granted, mostly in pointless Google searches, Wikipedia links, and YouTube ''trails''...). I don't need to open another black hole (and part of why I haven't signed up for Twitter; I've also pared back on the number of blogs I follow).
8) Fear of identity theft. I use a pseudonym here on my blog, as well as code names for family and friends. I don't feel like ''going public'' with my name, to aid people in figuring out my identifying particulars. And if I continue my pseudonym on Bookface -- well, what's the point, then?
I think that's it; there may be more, if I thought about it. ;)

In which we look at the real goal for the Giants, how they've overspent on running backs over the last twenty years, the capital-S surrealism of Daniel Pinkwater (author of Lizard Music and The Snarkout Boys and the Avocado of Death), and an attempt to put the cost of the Large Hadron Collider in perspective.
- One LHC A Year
Italy, who is one of the contributors to CERN, and thus helped financing the construction of the Large Hadron Collider in measure proportional to their gross internal product, is a country full of people who visit magicians, tarot readers, healers, etcetera. This is a huge phenomenon, and an economy which fully (estimated 99%) escapes taxation. In Italy every year an estimated 6B euros (about 7.5 billion dollars) is spent in these activities, according to a Eurispes 2010 investigation (sorry, the linked report is in Italian - I am sure it exists in English as well though). 6B euros is about the cost of the full LHC, or just a bit less. This means that Italy, alone, could have fully financed the LHC effortlessly if magicians and other charlatans had been stripped of that moneys, illegally earned. Or that, if those clowns had paid their taxes, Italy could have fully financed the LHC in two and a half years. (I remind you that constructing the LHC took several years).
- rushthatspeaks | Horace Gerstenblut n'existe pas, or, why Daniel Pinkwater is the greatest living Surrealist
It was not until quite recently, however, that I noticed that Pinkwater is actually a capital-S Surrealist, by which I mean that he is intentionally and with forethought following the artistic and literary principles established by André Breton and his circle in Paris in the 1920s as part of the Surrealist movement, and that he is alluding in his body of work to the Surrealists and their intellectual ideas.
- Giants Running in Circles With Their Backfield Spending - The Triangle Blog - Grantland
Montgomery's failure led the Giants to take another running back in the first round of the 2000 draft, their sixth first- or second-round pick at running back in 10 years. That back was Ron Dayne, and despite his collegiate success as Wisconsin, he hit the hole in the same sense that you hit the hay; it seemed warm and inviting to Dayne, and once he got there, he wanted to spend eight hours in it without moving. He averaged just 3.5 yards per carry and failed to run for more than 770 yards in a season with the Giants.

The Giants shouldn't take their eyes off the ultimate goal: looking like garbage for half the season, then embarrassing the Patriots.

Imagine having free access to college courses from MIT, Harvard, Stanford, or Duke. Is there a particular subject that intrigues you, such as the science of black holes, the cyberpolitics of international relations, or the the global business of sports? Ever heard of a course tying together globalization and theater, or cosmology and anthropology? MOOCs, or Massive Open Online Courses, provide students, regardless of age or socioeconomic status, access to online college courses taught by professors from a wide range colleges and universities, free of charge.
What is a MOOC?
MOOCs are free, online courses where students can register without a financial risk for as many courses as they want. The vast majority of MOOCs originate from top universities. Most MOOCs have around 100,000 students enrolled in the programs, making them far-reaching but impersonal.
A typical MOOC lasts 8 – 10 weeks, and features short lectures (the median time is 11 minutes per lecture, according to Ideas.Ted.com). Coursework generally entails watching the lectures, outside readings, short quizzes, final exams, and peer discussions, however, specifics depend on the platform and nature of the MOOC.
The main ideas of the MOOC philosophy are massiveness, openness, and connectivism, according to the paper, Fad or Future: The Advantages and Challenges of MOOCs, which explored the pros and cons of MOOCs. All three leading platforms of MOOCs (Coursera, edX and Udacity, all of which will be discussed in more depth later on), espouse this philosophy. The paper claimed that MOOCs can democratize higher education, because "…MOOCs provide access to large numbers of people who might otherwise be excluded for reasons ranging from time, geographic location, to formal prerequisites, to financial hardship."
"The 1,000 student class" ted talk
Not only do MOOCs allow so-called "non-traditional" students to have access to university classes, but individuals who are passionate about a certain subjects can pursue those interests by completing MOOCs.
There are several types of MOOCs: a xMOOC, the most common type, is organized around a professor and core curriculum; a cMOOC attempts to simulate a college seminar, where the class is based on online forum discussions; Corporate MOOCs are designed for employee training. This article will focus on xMOOCs, as they are the most relevant to high school students.
MOOCs: A History
MOOCs began as Open Online Courses (OOCs), where professors used the internet to present an open education experience, according to Fad or Future: The Advantages and Challenges of MOOCs. OOCs eventually evolved into massive open online courses when the Canadian professors Siemens and Downes created a "Connectivism and Connective Knowledge" online course (view here: CCK08) in 2008. Unlike prior OOCs, over 2,200 students signed up for the online course, thus transforming it into mass education.
Four years later, Coursera, today's leading for-profit platform for MOOCs, began to coordinate existing OOCs and MOOCs. Coursera was developed by Stanford computer science professors Andrew Neg and Daphne Koller.
Simultaneously, Thurn and Norvig launched an online Artificial Intelligence course (view here: CS221), which evolved into Udacity in 2012, another leading, for-profit MOOC platform aimed at providing lifelong learning, primarily in computer science and math.
The agenda of all these primitive MOOC platforms was to explore innovative ways to improve the classroom experience. Many of these were designed to supplement a traditional classroom, like a textbook does today. According to the New York Times article, Demystifying the MOOC, the purpose of MOOCs are to, in the words of Siemens, "shadow the learning economy."
Today, there are over 1,200 MOOCs available, from humanities to science and math (see chart for breakdown). Roughly 40% of students who take MOOCs are from developing countries. However, MOOCs are far from revolutionizing higher-education by making them available to all students – 30% of MOOC students have a bachelor's degree and 34% have a master's degree. Several experts note that the students who gravitate towards MOOCs are motivated individuals who are passionate about learning, not necessarily those living in poverty in a third world country. Completion rates are pitiful as well – according to an article by the Economist, The Digital Degree, only 10% of students who start a MOOC successfully complete it.
Leading MOOC Platforms
The leading platforms for MOOCs are Coursera, Edx, and Udacity. These platforms allow all students to take any course they'd like for free, and if they pay, they can receive a certificate that some colleges award credit for. Khan Academy, the Big History Project, and MIT Open Courseware are other notable platforms that do not offer credit, but many curious individuals use them to learn and explore their passions.
Coursera – Free Online Courses From Top Universities
Coursera is the leading, for-profit MOOC platform. Coursera has partnered up with 107 schools, has over 5 million students, and offers 532 courses. According to their website, Coursera's goal is to "…provide universal access to world's best education, partnering with top universities and organizations to offer courses for anyone to take, for free." Coursera's offers a variety of courses (you can view their course catalogue here), ranging from a comprehensive series of classes about American healthcare to Cryptography.
Obtaining college credit from Coursera courses became a viable option in 2013. According to an article by the New York Times, the Antioch University of Los Angeles offers students college credit for completing Modern and Contemporary American Poetry and Greek and Roman Mythology. Furthermore, the American Council on Education agreed to have experts assess whether individual Coursera courses are credit worthy – if they're deemed to be worthy of college credit, students who pay a fee and take an identity-verified exam can obtain an ACE credit transcript, which 2,000 universities already accept (a list of colleges that accept ACE credits can be viewed here).
Coursera also offers certificates of completion – anyone can take the course, but if students pay a fee of $10 – $30, they can obtain an official certificate stating that they successfully completed the course. Coursera doesn't plan on charging money for the actual classes, as the founders believe that "education should be a right, not a privilege."
EdX is a non-profit MOOC platform developed by MIT and Harvard in 2012. 1.65 million students from 225 countries and territories have taken or are currently taking an edX MOOC and 125 courses are offered.
According to their website, "EdX was created for students and institutions that seek to transform themselves through cutting-edge technologies, innovative pedagogy, and rigorous courses." Their goals include "advancing teaching and learning through research" – because thousands of students are taking hundreds of courses, MIT and Harvard accumulate reams of data, which they can us analyze to understand how students learn.
Their course catalogue can be viewed here, and like Coursera, edX offers a wide variety of disciplines.
While the vast majority of universities do not accept edX credits, the John F. Kennedy University in California does accept edX MOOC credits toward their degrees.
Online Courses and Nanodegree Programs to Advance Your Career – Udacity
Udacity focuses on math and computer science MOOCs, has 1.8 million students from 190 countries, and offers 33 courses. Udacity, unlike Coursera and edX, offers a "nanodegree program" alongside traditional MOOC courses. The nanodegree program is a web-based curriculum that students can complete in 6-12 months (10 hour work week), according to Udacity's website. Currently, there are five nanodegree programs: front-end developer, full stack developer, introduction to programming, data analyst, and iOS developer.
Students can pay money (the amount depends on the program), and within a year, be "ready for a job…in tech." Udacity teamed up with companies such as Google to create these programs, and the site claims that, "They [Google and other leading tech organizations] invent and use new technologies, so they know what skills matter better than anyone else."
To convey competence in one of the five programs, students need to complete its component courses, as well as periodic projects. After completing the course, students compile their projects into a portfolio that they can then market to potential employers.
Noteworthy Platforms
Khan Academy – "you can learn anything"
Khan Academy is an online video archive of lessons, with topics ranging from math to the humanities. The site, created by Salman Khan, began as a series of YouTube videos Khan made for his cousins to help them with math. Today, Khan Academy has it's own site and over 5,000 free, web-based video lessons for students.
According to an article written by the Harvard Business Review, Khan Academy is personalized in that the "…technology can deliver information at a student's pace, give practice problems and feedback, and arm teachers with data." Each student can learn at their own pace, whether they're doing it independently or for a class, and master content before moving on. Khan Academy has short 5 – 10 minute videos, which are often followed by practice questions and games to check for comprehension.
Like other MOOC platforms, Khan Academy embraces the ideas of short segments, rather than long, one-hour long lectures. According to Khan, "…humans can pay attention for 10 – 15 minutes before they zone out. You zone back in for eight or nine minutes, then you zone out again…by the end of the hour you might have picked up 30% of the material." By having short videos and comprehension checks, Khan believes that students can stay engaged for the duration of the lesson.
In the future, Khan wants to add more topics, explore existing topics in more depth, and tinker with the platform so that it's more interactive. Khan, like several other MOOC creators, hopes to perfect education through the scientific use of data – imagine if teachers and students had access to "…software that maps an individual's knowledge and offers a lesson plan unique to him or her."
"Big history" introduction
Big History Project: A Story for Everyone
"Big History" originated as a course taught by Australian professor David Christian. He taught it both in person and as a "Great Courses" class ("Great Courses" are a series of lectures on DVDs that students can purchase). The main idea of "Big History" is that history, cosmology, evolution, and anthropology cannot be taught independently, as they are done in most schools, but rather, they should be woven together into a narrative of life on Earth, so students can see the connections between subjects. It has now evolved from a college course to a MOOC, with its own website and graphic design team, with the funding of Bill Gates.
Christian divides "Big History" into eight thresholds, from the Big Bang (#1) to the emergence of the Homo sapiens (#6), the appearance of agriculture (#7), to our modern world (#8) (see the image for all the thresholds).
Bill Gates, an advocate for education reform, saw the idea when watching the lectures via Great Courses and loved it. He contacted Christian, and offered to fund the project. After adapting it to a high school curriculum, Gates and Christian designed an electronic textbook, with interactive videos, timelines, and graphics. Free of charge, Gates pitched it to five schools in 2011. The figure grew to 15,000 students in 1,200 schools in 2014, and the University of California system announced that the Big History course was the equivalent to a traditional World History course.
Gates and progressive-minded educators lament the fact that today, traditional courses are taught as separate entities, leaving students with fragmented knowledge. Bob Bain, a professor of history and education at the University of Michigan, states that, "…the average kid has no way to make sense between what happens with their first period World History class and their second period algebra class, third-period gym class – it's all disconnected. It's like if I were to give you a jigsaw puzzle and throw 500 pieces on the table and say, 'Oh, by the way, I'm not going to show you the box as to how they fit together.'"
For example, Big History fuses history and astronomy together in the Big Bang lecture by providing a comprehensive history about cosmology, both the historical aspect (from Ptolemy's geocentric model to Hubble's idea of our expanding universe) and the scientific aspect (the technicalities of how the universe came into existence).
The idea of a connected curriculum sounds very appealing and interesting to several students, but its primary funding source, Bill Gates, is a controversial figure. From investing over $200 million on the polarizing Common Core standards to the simple fact that Gates is a billionaire, his support of the project has raised several red flags. Diane Ravitch, an education historian at New York University, cites Gates' wealth as a source of bias in the historical accounts – she states, "When I think about history, I think about different perspectives, clashing points of view. I wonder how Bill Gates would treat the robber barons. I wonder how Bill Gates would deal with the issues of extreme wealth and poverty."
There is no mention of the robber barons in the Big History Project, however, Gates does briefly state the issues of unequal resource distribution.
MOOCs & Traditional Classes: Dominate, Fade Out, or Hybrid?
Pros and Cons of MOOCs
The merit of MOOCs are that they provide education and knowledge to any willing student. They're free to all, unless one is looking to pursue a certificate of accomplishment or college credit, and they're flexible, making it ideal for both traditional and nontraditional students. While making an individual MOOC is expensive (roughly $300,000 per course, according to the National Educational Association [NEA]), because roughly 100,000 students take the courses, it ends up being very cheap on a per student basis ($3 per student).
MOOCs also have instant feedback through machine grading, which is very beneficial to many students. However, as mentioned earlier, completion rates are very low. This is partially attributed to the fact that there are fewer social connections, so many students can lose their motivation early. Furthermore, MOOCs aren't appropriate for interactive classes, such as the lab sciences, as they would be significantly lacking any necessary hands-on experience. Furthermore, on several platforms, cheating is problematic – there is no mechanism put forth to avoid it, like in a traditional classroom, and peer-graded, rather than teacher-graded essays worsens the issue.
Because MOOCs are "mass education," by nature it isn't individualized and tailored to each student's needs. Until companies and institutions have enough data to tailor classes, students will have to adjust to the teaching styles available. Lastly, MOOCs lack the personal connection between peers and teachers that a traditional classroom has. According to John Henry Newman's famous 1985 paper, The Idea of a University, the post-Enlightenment university is "a place for the communication and circulation of thought." While forums can partially facilitate this, it cannot be replicated perfectly. This is a large reason why MOOCs cannot replace formal college education.
Hybrid MOOCs
Many teachers and professors have been experimenting with hybrid MOOCs, where the MOOC courseware is used as a supplement to a course, similar to a textbook. This method is very popular at MIT; according to the Economist, roughly 50% of students at MIT take a MOOC as part of their course. By nature, Khan Academy and the Big History Project are hybrid MOOCs: Khan Academy is popular amongst teachers who embrace the "flipped classroom model" (where students learn the material at home then discuss it in class) and the Big History Project is a digital textbook to supplement lectures and in-class activities.
MOOCs in New Hampshire & Exeter High
Student experiences
Jake Poirier
Jake Poirier, a junior, has experience with two MOOCs: Honors American History (sophomore year) and AP Computer Science (currently). AP Computer Science was referred to Poirier by a friend, and he stated that he liked the MOOCs because "…you can go at your own pace." The downside for him was the heavy time commitment, which is a common issue with MOOCs for several students.
Poirier takes his classes through VLACS, so he is only able to take high school classes. He "…would recommend VLACS because…there are a number of systems put in place for convenience, and it has ties to EHS." Poirier recommends AP Computer Science to any students interested in taking a MOOC.
Roger Detzler
Roger Detzler, a junior, is planning on taking the Modern Musician certification by Berklee College of Music via Coursera. The Modern Musician certification entails three separate courses: (1) Developing Your Musicianship, (2) Introduction to Music Production, (3)Songwriting. Similar to Udacity's nanodegree program, Coursera's Modern Musician certification allows students to practice their musical skills and learn the theory behind it, then submit a final project. For the Modern Musician certification, the final project entails (1) writing a song, (2) creating a production plan for the song, (3) recording, editing, and arranging the production of the song, and (4) mixing and submitting the song.
Detzler is passionate about music, and he hopes to obtain a certification and learn about "…sound engineering, a field that has very few courses." Furthermore, Detzler states that "…it offers [him] an opportunity to take a course that doesn't really exist anywhere else, taught by a college professor, and for a fraction of the university sticker price. Music technology is a very new industry that has made very little ground in terms of education, and it's exciting to see that MOOCs…are enabling them to become more accessible." Detzler plans on completing the specialization (all three courses plus the final project) during one of his free periods next year.
Detzler found about MOOCs and Coursera through his mother, who previously took Machine Learning on Coursera. According to Detzler, "…she likes them [Coursera courses] a lot, for classes that don't need to be hands on. Anything that can be taught mostly from reference material and videos is learned quickly and easily in an online environment."
Detzler's course will be focusing on sound theory and engineering, which he then plans on applying to his compositions. Essentially, because sound engineering is by nature a hands on course, he will learn the theory through the MOOC, then apply it in his projects. Detzler stated that he is excited to "[Learn] how to work intimately with elements of [his] DAW (digital audio workstation) and designing soundscapes of [his] own."
My Experience
During the past summer, I took an Introduction to Astronomy course, by Duke University, through Coursera. I personally found the wide array of courses offered by Coursera fascinating, and it took me a couple of days to narrow down my list of 20 potential courses I could take to just one. I took the course without a certificate (so I didn't get any credit), but the learning experience was enthralling. Because I took the archived course, I missed out on the peer interaction, but I found the lectures engaging and the outside reading (outside readings were links to various informational websites) was interesting.
I'm interested in space science, so I took the MOOC to expand my horizons and learn more about the universe – it was solely a recreational option for myself. I loved how it was self-paced, and it's flexibility allowed me to work it into my summer schedule. I found the material engaging enough to keep me going, so I rarely fell behind in the course.
The only downside for me is the fact that learning is primarily through video lectures – personally, I prefer to learn by reading. However, that's more of an individual thing, so I 100% recommend this course to anyone who has the time and some interest in the cosmos. The course covered the solar system, stars, cosmology, erratic objects like black holes and quasars, as well as the basic ideas of Einstein's theory of relativity. It's not very math intensive – the only math you'd need is basic algebra – a solid understanding is not imperative to success in this course. During this summer, I plan on taking Wellesley's Global Sociology course through edX.
New Hampshire Primary UNH MOOC
Are you a political junkie, journalist, government nerd, or educator? If so, you must be eagerly anticipating the 2016 general and primary elections. Two political scientists, Andrew Smith and Dante Scala from the University of New Hampshire are also excited. They're so excited that they're currently working on an MOOC focused solely on the New Hampshire primary election. The course is expected to launch in mid-October.
According to an article written by The New Hampshire Digital, Smith claims that the purpose of the MOOC is to "…give students, journalists, and political junkies around the world a background on the New Hampshire, the electorate and the history of the primary and how it works, as well as all of the political science and historical context about the process."
The MOOC will be be 6-7 weeks long, featuring one-hour long lecture segments three days a week. UNH students will be able to take the class in-person in the fall for college credit. This is an opportunity for students to have a "…front row seat to the primary that historically sets the tone for the rest of the nation," according to Smith.
Ramifications of MOOCs
MOOCs will not destroy upper education as many contend, however, it will alter the structure of upper education. The most likely outcome is professors blending MOOCs with their previous curriculum. With the reams of data accumulated by MIT, Harvard, and other MOOC providers, researchers and teachers will be able to focus on how students learn, and use the data to improve teaching techniques.
MOOCs are revolutionizing education by opening it up to thousands of individuals. Now, disadvantaged students from around the world can receive unparalleled education for little to no money. Individuals with passions can pursue them through MOOCs. Teachers can use them to "flip the classroom," thereby ensuring the most effective usage of class time.
Get ready for the last feature of the year, the Psychology of Learning #4: A Global Perspective, which will focus on the U.S.' education system compared to other countries. Have any suggestions for next year? Comment below, and I'll look into it.

EMDR trauma counseling can help you work through trauma & anxiety so you can start to get control of your life back. Call us at 720-583-9332 to learn how EMDR can help you!
When you experience a trauma it rocks your world. Things that used to be easy don't come as easily. As a result of the trauma, you constantly feel on high alert. Sleep doesn't come as easily and you may have nightmares you wish would disappear. You may avoid certain people, places, or things that trigger you. You may have flashbacks and find it hard to move on regardless of how hard you try. Consequently, you may feel alone in your experiences and not know how to move forward.
For some people trauma is a big one time event and for others trauma is due to several smaller events. The brain can register car accidents, bullying, and abuse as trauma. Many people have endured traumatic events that shape their lives without realizing that what they have experienced is indeed trauma.
If you have experienced trauma, EMDR is an amazing trauma therapy that can help you relieve your pain. EMDR is designated as an effective treatment by the American Psychiatric Association, the World Health Organization (WHO), the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and many other international health agencies.
At MVP we have trauma counselors who utilize EMDR to help people move through their trauma. People are often able to gain their lives back. EMDR trauma counseling typically works more quickly than traditional talk therapy. Therefore our clients are able to gain relief relatively quickly.

Monte Carlo (Principality of Monaco), April 21st 2016 – Coinciding with the Frankfurt-based Imex exhibition, global marketplace for the events industry, from Monte Carlo comes the announcement of the establishment of an innovative event agency: InspireME Monte Carlo.
Instead, it is a full-service events agency, which, more than from the city where it is located, draws its lifeblood from the syllable "ME", an acronym of the name and surname of its owner: Miek Egberts CMP CMM.
InspireMe: how it works
InspireME is an exclusive, reliable boutique consultancy agency offering an alternative concept of full-service event management, both for B2B, FIT and leisure, for high end experiential travel in the Principality of Monaco, Provence, South of France and Corsica.
Its service (including analysis, planning and creation, organization, execution and supervision, budget and quality control as well as location scouting) applies to corporate and private events and is always customized and tailored.
But its main characteristic is another one. As the owner says, "At InspireME we believe in creating events of a lifetime – unforgettable, truly memorable experiences. Even more, we specifically seek "behind the scenes", "off the beaten track" and "inside the velvet ropes" experiences – which means: authenticity, not only exclusiveness, knowledge not information, hands-on learning not arms-length gazing".
From the popular tourist routes to 'hidden gems', InspireME looks for unspoilt landscapes, unusual attractions, private homes, palaces or residences that have historical significance, private art collections, thus bringing genuine interaction with the local people and their fascinating lifestyles, and introducing – one of the first-ever agencies comprising it in its core business – corporate lifestyle events.

James Silberstein: Express Lane
Silberstein is showcased with his rhythm section (pianist Jill McCarron, bassist Harvie S, drummer Vince Cherico) on his own "Express Lane," adding percussionist Daniel Sadownick on the standards "You Don"t Know What Love Is" and "Skylark." McCarron sits out on Rodgers and Hart's "My Romance," and Silberstein plays unaccompanied on the last track, J.J. Johnson's "Lament."
Rotondi is present on the other half-dozen selections, Alexander on five, Davis and Drummond two each, while Kate McGarry adds a wordless vocal on "Shadows," which Silberstein co-wrote with Harvie S. Besides arranging every track, the bassist also composed "A Simple Thank You." Completing the wide-ranging program are Cole Porter's "From This Moment On," Mercer / Arlen's "Come Rain or Come Shine," Hoagy Carmichael's "Skylark" (played as a bossa), Silberstein's "Glass Garden" and fellow guitarist Jack Wilkins' "Kiwi Bird."
Silberstein, a fixture on the New York scene for about twenty-five years, has studied with Chuck Wayne and Barry Galbraith, among others, and performed with a who's who of luminaries from Zoot Sims and Bucky Pizzarelli to Norah Jones and The Drifters. He is an engaging soloist whose athletic single-note runs channel role-models Wes Montgomery, Tal Farlow, George Benson, Pat Martino, Joe Pass and others. Rotondi, who has some of his best "moments" on the Porter standard, is similarly eloquent on "Glass Garden," while Alexander delivers typically persuasive solos on "From This Moment" and "Shadows," and Davis appends a groovy statement on "Come Rain or Come Shine."
Silberstein leaps from the starting gate with "From This Moment On" and keeps things lively and interesting by varying tempos and personnel. Those who appreciate a supple guitar but admire other instruments as well should find much that is likable in this Express Lane.
Track Listing
From This Moment On; Kiwi Bird; You Don't Know What Love Is; Come Rain or Shine; Shadows; Express Lane; A Simple Thank You; Glass Garden; My Romance; Skylark; Lament.

Having problems with your Dell Dimension 3000 PC Desktop ?
Dimension 3000 won't boot until it gets warm
\015 To boot the Dimension, I have removed the side cover and use a fan heater to warm it up. After a few minutes the heat causes the coling fan to start and then the computer will switch on via the on/off button. This has to repeated whenever it is switched on.\015\012\015\012Do you reckon the power supply unit could be the culprit.\015\012\015\012The computer is 3 years old and is used in our house which is at normal house temperature.\015\012\015\012Best wishes\015

A while back on Facebook, my Kansas City cousin, Doug Worgul, asked me if any current Royals have already made my all-time Royals team.
I gave him a quick assessment, off the top of my head, before this year's team reached the post-season. After the Royals won their first World Series in 30 years, here's my updated, detailed assessment early in the careers of some current Royals and their chances for being Kansas City's best ever at their positions:
The Royals have had some good catchers, but no great ones. You could have argued for three or four different catchers here before Salvador Pérez arrived. I give Pérez the nod here already. At age 25, he has only three full seasons behind the plate. But they have been three All-Star and Gold Glove seasons. And now he has a World Series MVP trophy.
No Royal catcher ever could match Pérez's collection of hardware.
You can argue over whether Darrell Porter, Jim Sundberg, Bob Boone, John Wathan or Mike Macfarlane is second. But none of them has come close to matching Pérez's achievements.
It says something about the Royals' catching history that a three-year starter is their best ever already. But Pérez is.
First base
Mike Sweeney, the best hitter on some bad Royals teams, made five All-Star teams in six years from 2000 to 2005. He is the only position player from what my son Tom called the "lost years" between the early 1990s and 2014 who makes this team.
But Sweeney gave Kansas City 11 strong years. It will take a while for 2015 first baseman Eric Hosmer to catch him, but I think he's in reach.
Before Hosmer came along, two-time All-Star John Mayberry was probably No. 2 at first base, ahead of Steve Balboni and Willie Aikens.
George Brett might be No. 2 or 3 here, ahead or behind Mayberry, even though he played only four seasons (1987-90) primarily at first base. Brett was an All-Star in 1987 and '88 after moving to first base, and won his third batting championship in 1990. And, after all, he's George Brett. So he doesn't go at first base on a Royals' all-time team. More on him shortly.
Hosmer, like Pérez, is finishing his fifth year, and he's been a starter all along. He hasn't made an All-Star team yet, and hasn't approached any of Sweeney's best single-season numbers, but I like where he's heading. With three Gold Gloves already, he's a better fielder than hitter, but he's solid offensively, too. His 14th-inning game-winning sacrifice fly in Game One and his dash home with the tying run to send Game Five into extra innings this year push Hosmer into second place, in my view, but if you want to say Mayberry's still a shade ahead, I won't argue.
Another few years, and I think Hosmer will pass Sweeney, but he's not there yet.
Second base
This position is a one-man race for the Royals: Frank White. No one is within 10 years of reaching him. I sat with White at a Royals' banquet many years ago. A pleasant man, a great fielder, a good hitter.
Freddie Patek is the gold standard for Royals shortstops, with three All-Star games in nine seasons and a .306 batting average against the Yankees in three post-season series in the 1970s.
Angel Berroa was a Rookie of the Year and gave the Royals a good seven-year run. Based on regular-season play, you could argue that he's No. 2.
But I give Alcides Escobar the edge over Berroa in his five years in Kansas City. He was closing on Berroa before this post-season, his MVP performance against the Blue Jays, followed by an inside-the-park homer on his first swing of this World Series. He needs another two or three years to pass Patek, but he's on his way.
Third base
I love Mike Moustakas. My cell phone is loaded with "Mooooose!!!!" messages among my sons and me, celebrating his post-season heroics the past two years (and some regular-season ones as well. But I don't expect the Royals to have a third baseman better than Brett in the next century. Seriously, major league baseball is well over a century old, and the only team that can claim a better third baseman is the Philadelphia Phillies. Maybe two or three can argue that they have had a third baseman as good as Brett.
I think and hope Moose will be a longtime star, hopefully a career Royal. But I can't see him ever passing Brett as No. 1 at third base for Kansas City.
Left field
Among the people you think of as Royals left fielders, Alex Gordon appeared a likely winner initially. He's spent nine years in Kansas City, moving to left from third base five years ago. Bo Jackson was spectacular, and watching him was a real treat of our time in Kansas City. But Bo played only four full seasons for the Royals before getting injured on the football field. His most memorable homer was in an All-Star Game. Gordon's center-field shot tying Game One of this World Series in the ninth inning wasn't as amazing as Bo's, but it was bigger. With five straight Gold Gloves and three All-Star appearances, Gordon beats Jackson out.
But I'll tell you this: Bo would have scored on that error in Game Seven last year.
And I'll tell you this: I have to go with Willie Wilson in left field over either Jackson or Gordon. I think of him as a center fielder, and he covered ground amazingly and gracefully once he moved over there. But with 676 games in left, Wilson has more than Jackson and just 100 fewer than Gordon. And he's one of the Royals' best ever, having led the American League in batting, hits, runs, stolen bases and triples (five times), most of that when he was playing left. He had more hits and runs than Jackson and Gordon combined.
Johnny Damon had a nice five-year start with the Royals, but played more than 100 games in left only one of those years.
Center field
Amos Otis gets the nod here. If Gordon sticks around and passes Wilson in left, I might move Willie to center ahead of AO, but that would be a tough call. Otis was as important to the 1970s Royals as Brett was. This has been a strong position for the Royals. The current team's Lorenzo Cain has been awesome, especially with the dash home to beat the Blue Jays and get into he World Series, but also with some spectacular fielding in last year's post-season. But I think he ranks behind Otis, Wilson and Carlos Beltrán.
Cain has a strong start, but only three years. He can pass Beltrán soon, but he's several years from catching Otis and Wilson.
Right field
Right is tougher. AO and Wilson played just a few games each in right, so I couldn't move either over here to ease the traffic jams in center or left. Right field was a platoon position on the '85 championship team and the weakest spot on the '15 champions. Al Cowens finished second in the 1977 MVP race and played six years in right field, including the 1970s division championship seasons. Jermaine Dye was an All-Star but played only two full seasons in right for Kansas City. Both won Gold Gloves. Danny Tartabull made an All-Star appearance and had three 100-RBI seasons as the Royals' right fielder from '87 to '91. I'd probably rank Cowens, Tartabull and Dye as the best right fielders, in that order. But I wouldn't quarrel if you wanted to place Tartabull first.
Designated hitter
Kendrys Morales had a great year for the Royals this year, but Hal McRae was the first successful DH and played more than 1,400 games at the position for the Royals, leading the league in slugging and RBI in separate seasons. Morales is easily a decade from becoming the Royals' best DH. Billy Butler, who left after the 2014 World Series, has four seasons as the Royals' primary DH and certainly ranks ahead of Morales, too.
Starting pitchers
None of the current Royals is near joining the all-time starting rotation, however you might choose such a rotation. Bret Saberhagen is easily the best KC starter ever and would lead any all-time Royal rotation.
I tend to value peak performance over longevity (though I value both), so I would follow Sabes in the rotation by two more Cy Young winners, David Cone and Zack Greinke; a three-time 20-game winner from the '70s, Dennis Leonard, and Paul Splittorff, the franchise leader with 166 career wins.
If you prefer longevity to a single or a few spectacular seasons, Kevin Appier and/or Mark Gubicza might edge out Cone and/or Greinke. I'd guess that unless the Royals can sign Johnny Cueto as a free agent, Yordano Ventura has the best shot to cracking this rotation. But he's several years or a Cy Young season away from joining this discussion.
Relief pitching
Usually when I'm picking an all-time team, I pick a closer rather than a full bullpen (I also don't pick a full bench of position players and didn't here).
Dan Quisenberry is clearly the Royals' best all-time closer. Wade Davis has less than a full year as a closer. But his two years as an eighth-inning reliever who moved into the closer role have been dominant, maybe better than Quisenberry at his best.
I'd say that Davis' excellence here justifies naming Quiz as the all-time Royals closer, and Davis as the all-time Royals set-up man, with a shot at unseating Quiz from the closer role in a few years.
Jeff Montgomery, with 304 career saves for the Royals, merits mention.
Four managers have led the Royals to the post-season: Whitey Herzog, Jim Frey, Dick Howser and Ned Yost. A manager's job is to win championships. Only Yost and Howser have won World Series. Only Yost has led his team to two World Series. I think Yost tops the list of Royal managers, much as I loved Howser.
How did the '15 Royals do?
Pérez is the only position player from 2015 I would put on the all-time Royals team. Escobar and Gordon, if they stay with the team and continue to play as they have, are probably the closest to crashing the team. Hosmer is farther away, but appears on track to become the Royals' best first baseman.
Davis is the only pitcher from 2015 yet who belongs on the team, but not as closer.
Yost would manage, but at this point, his lineup card would be heavy with Royals from the 1970s and '80s.

2016 Olympics will bring 'benefits' to Brazil, IOC says
LAUSANNE, Switzerland -- The IOC says it is "fully supportive of peaceful protest" in Brazil and confident the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro will bring major benefits to the city and country.
Anti-government protests have spread across Brazil in the past week. Triggered by an increase in bus and subway fares, the protests have targeted the billions spent to host the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Summer Games.
The IOC says in a statement to The Associated Press that the Olympics "will bring significant benefits to the whole population of Rio, improving the city in terms of transport, infrastructure and social housing, as well as bringing a considerable sporting legacy for Brazil."
The IOC says polls show the majority of Brazilians support the Olympics.

Dish vs. Netflix in Video Streaming War
Dish will offer HBO content over its online streaming network
Yesterday, Dish's Charlie Ergen announced that his company would be partnering with Netflix rival HBO to add to Dish Online's video streaming content. "We plan to compete more aggressively with Netflix," said Dish's online chief Bruce Eisen, according to a Friday report in the New York Post.
Instead of licensing its content out to streaming services like Netflix, HBO has chosen to launch its own online streaming service through TV providers.
The deal will add 1,800 titles from the HBO and Cinemax rosters to Dish's streaming service, including popular HBO shows like True Blood. HBO also has access to films from Universal Pictures, Warner Bros., DreamWorks, and Twentieth Century Fox. "[Netflix has] more movies than we do, but we have movies much sooner," Eisen said, and added that it would be 10 years before Netflix is able to stream many of the same films as Dish.
Recently, Dish has also been upset about the streaming rights deal that Liberty Media's Starz made with Netflix. As retribution, Dish began giving eight Starz and Encore channels away for free, which keeps Starz from collecting extra subscription revenue. Starz is threatening to sue Dish over its actions, according to a source in the Post.

Oh my goodness, so the most exciting thing this week!
First off, chickie update! Look at how big! They are this big!
Secondly, and this is, admittedly, not the biggest surprise, but still terribly exciting and magical and wonderful every time it happens, WE HAVE EGGS.
That egg? That egg is ten minutes old. Ten minutes! This is the freshest egg I have ever had in my whole life!
By the end of today, we had nine eggs over the course of seven days, so it looks like both of our big hens are laying.
We had eggs on Saturday morning:
And then this morning, a little after I got up, my dad came down from the hen house with the egg in the picture above. One perfect brown egg! So we cooked it right away and ate it right away and it was pretty much incredible. We split it in three, so I had a third of an egg, and I didn't eat another thing until two pm because it was so awesome.

Jackson Pearce proves that it is possible to address heavy subjects with a light hand in her standalone YA novel Purity, about one girl's quest to lose her virginity:
Before her mother died, Shelby promised three things: to listen to her father, to love as much as possible, and to live without restraint. Those Promises become harder to keep when Shelby's father joins the planning committee for the Princess Ball, an annual dance that ends with a ceremonial vow to live pure lives — in other words, no "bad behavior," no breaking the rules, and definitely no sex.
Torn between Promises One and Three, Shelby makes a decision — to exploit a loophole and lose her virginity before taking the vow. But somewhere between failed hookup attempts and helping her dad plan the ball, Shelby starts to understand what her mother really meant, what her father really needs, and who really has the right to her purity.
With subject matter like the death of a parent, sex, and religion at the heart of the novel, you'd expect Purity to be a heavy-handed tale in morality. It's really anything but. Pearce has crafted a novel about family and love, about making your own choices and being your own person, and about finding the path that fits you. It's about personal life decisions, and how there's no one "right way" for everyone.
For the most part, Purity is a light-hearted tale that addresses serious issues without taking itself too seriously. It's not preachy or overly critical of any one decision. The novel shows that it's okay to: wait to have sex; to have sex as a teenager; to have sex without a committed relationship. The novel shows that sex is a personal choice, and as long as you're making the right decision for YOU, then it's the right choice. No matter what.
Purity is in stores now.

Tips Utilized When Choosing the Preeminent Commercial Painting Company.
If you have a building eventually you will need to paint it and hiring a professional is the best choice. On the other hand, it is challenging to choose the best painting services because there are many people and companies which provide people with those services. A commercial painter has better services because you are assured that qualification would be a must to be provided for them to acquire the business license.
You should consider the kind of paints the company uses when providing the services. The paint which is used in internal of the building can be vulnerable. However, when you consider the exterior painting it needs a paint which will last for long, for example, stay for more than ten years without wearing off. Therefore, the paint used on the outer parts of the house should withstand extreme weathers for it to be durable. Accordingly, inquire more about the paint being used for you to know which company to hire for the painting services.
You should contemplate on the amount you will be charged for the services. You should have the amount of money of which has been intended to be used for the painting services. Thus, considering your budget you should look for the painting firm whose cost of the services is within your means. Thus, if you have selected a painter and you find that the charges are high for you, then you should look for another one whom you can afford to pay. There will be some additional costs before the task is completed.
You should consider the painting company you are about to hire with its reputation. Whenever you need the best quality services, then, you have to utilize the painting services of the firm with a good reputation. Mostly, the reviews would help you to determine whether it is reputed of which you should look at their website. The company with an excellent reputation will have positive comments on the site. Whenever you hire a painting company which has a good reputation and its clients show contentment for the services they were provided with, then you are assured of getting quality services from the company because it has the expertise.
The local painter should be selected for this kind of work. Mostly, with the local firms means that location will not be a barrier, and thus, you will not be charged the amount of money which will be spent on traveling from their site to your location. Sometimes, it will save time since it is near to your building for the painting services.

Note from the Chairman.
Fellow Trustees and Team Members,
AGMs can often seem remote from the the work of the organisation, so I want to start by remembering , by celebrating all that has been achived by the people who do the work of being Chaplains. This has been a busy and very full year and I have been so excited to see the work that God is doing in the workplace through the efforts of workplace Chaplains from across Gods Church in a wide array of different workplace situations across our area.
Last year at this time we had said goodbye to David Helms and Brian Bowes and we were looking forward to new things and, although much has happened and the work is growing, I am still looking forward to new beginnings and I find myself very excited about the work that God is doing in the workplace.
Tonight we will hear a bit about some of those changes, or at least the very beginning of a new shape for Kent Workplace Mission. Change is an onging reality and the work of KWM goes on, in the context of a world of work which is changing so rapidly that those of us in the midst of the workplace can barely keep up. AGM's are important milestones in any Organisation; this one certainly is. The AGM has been delayed because it was right to delay it to get the LEP review competed and the accounts finalised. Faces and names change but the work goes on, new ways of doing the work may come along as the needs of the people in workplace change, new structures are created, but the work goes on, people are cared for, and the gospel is made alive in the work we do. In the last year the governance of KWM has already been strengthened by several new appointees to the Council of Trustees and it is to be hoped that this will lead to renewed and improved two-way communication between KWM and the sponsoring denominations. A new stability among the Council Officers, linked to stability of funding support will allow the appointment of a Chaplaincy Operational Leader to take the Chief Executive role, able to take matters on between meetings.
With a re-established chaplaincy lead we have a vision for growing workplace Chaplaincies across Kent. As well as the growing links with Workspace Canterbury and the Abbeyfield Kent Society, we hope to be able to forge links with Shepherd Neame Breweries, industries in Thanet and Romney Marsh, as well as smaller retailers across Kent. Working more closely with CTK we hope to consolidate the links with many existing chaplains and chaplaincies which have historically been at arms length. The employment of a new Team Support Coordinator in 2012 saw contact with our Chaplains reinvigorated. In the future we hope to see a developed website and more interaction across the range of social media including facebook and twitter, reaching out to more businesses, individuals and offering more personal support and contact to our growing network of Chaplains. Considerable effort has gone into reviewing and refreshing our lists of members and chaplains and we now aim to have contact with them all at least four times a year via newsletters, electronic communications, and where ever possible face to face. Part of that review has been to establish who is providing oversight for each of our chaplains and to ensure, during 2013, that proper DBS/CRB checks are in place, either through us or the denominations. Where possible we hope to see the majority of our Chaplains with KWM email addresses.
Our vision for KWM includes refreshing the training available for all Chaplains, starting by offering the Chaplaincy Everywhere course, and by offering the Make Money Count course to a wider area of Kent, including staff at Gunwharf and the Abbeyfield Kent Society.
Following two years in the doldrums, with the ever impending Church Leader's Review, it is hoped that KWM can look forward to a more dynamic future and extending the opportunities to take the Good News of Christ to all those in the Workplace.

Turn Your Backyard into a Fun Outdoor Space with Propane
Spring is almost here. As you spend more time outdoors, propane is a great way to transform your backyard into a fun outdoor space for family and friends. Propane isn't just for grilling; this clean and efficient fuel can be used in a variety of outdoor applications that will make your yard the place to be. The following are some of our favorite outdoor uses for propane:
- Lighting
Host a party, have dinner with family, a game night with friends or enjoy time alone relaxing in your outdoor space by adding some ambiance with attractive propane-powered lighting. Create a warm and inviting space in your yard and along walkways with real flame lighting. Propane is an affordable and easy way to power outdoor lights. Plus, they work during power outages.
- Pools and Hot Tubs
With unpredictable spring temperatures, a fast, affordable and consistent heating source is essential for pools and hot tubs. Propane is the perfect choice for heating outdoor pools and hot tubs. Propane has also been shown to be more efficient and effective than electric.
- Outdoor Fire Pits and Fireplaces
An outdoor fire pit or fireplace creates a great place for family and friends to gather around. The benefit of an outdoor fire pit or fireplace is the real flame and real warmth at a flip of a switch. Plus, there's no time-consuming fire to start, no smoke or messy soot or ash to clean up.
- Outdoor Kitchens
If you love to cook outdoors, then a propane-powered outdoor kitchen would be a great addition to your backyard. Your family and friends will appreciate the entertaining experience an outdoor kitchen provides.
If you're ready to turn your backyard into the place be this spring and summer, contact ThompsonGas today.

I ran across this interesting post the other day: Start and End eLearning Courses with Methods That Facilitate Learning (Integrated Learning Services)
Shelley discusses that learners tend to remember the content presented first and last better than everything in the middle. (She refers to the Primacy and Recency Effects.) Now, when I first read the post it seemed like common sense. We just don't have enough short-term capacity to remember all of it. However the point of the post is more around, "Since this is how the mind works, how are we changing the way we create training?"
Do you strategically place content in your course based on if it's closer to the beginning or ending? Maybe we should think about it a bit more.
What if the course starts with a bullet list of learning objects? What if the course ends with a text page that says, "In this module you learned…"? Do these play to the strengths of the Primacy or Recency Effects?
Here are a few ideas to "space out" training so that it's more effective. (Kineo)
I guess we need to add this idea to our "design flow" to make sure we don't forget to consider while designing courses in the future.
Quickly build eLearning games and eLearning interactions. Works with your eLearning authoring tool. No programming needed.

How Do I Choose the Best Roast Beef Marinade?
To choose the best roast beef marinade, you should first determine the exact type of flavor you want to create. The great thing about roast beef marinades is that you can choose from hundreds of flavors to suit your taste. Roast beef acts as a sponge and soaks up the flavor of the marinade. It can be helpful to try several recipes or formulation to determine which one you like best. You also should consider the side dishes that will be served with the roast beef.
Choosing the right seasonings depends mostly on personal taste preference. The possibilities are many. You might prefer a smoky barbecue flavored marinade, citrus-based marinade or even a spicy international type of marinade to suit your exotic taste buds. It depends on the flavor you are looking for from your meat. The best roast beef marinade recipes typically have rich flavors that deeply penetrate the meat. This includes barbecue sauce or Worcestershire sauce as well as vinegar and wine-based marinades.
Roast is a thicker cut of meat, so it's best to select a marinade that has an acidic base, such as citrus or vinegar, to tenderize the roast. The acidic element adds not only flavor, it also contains an enzyme that helps achieve a tender roast and makes the meat more enjoyable and appetizing. This allows the selection of a meat that might normally be a tougher cut of meat. After the right acid-base marinade has been applied for as long as 24 hours, the meat will be fully tenderized.
The only way to really know the best marinade for you is to try out recipes. The Internet is full of recipe websites that have marinade recipes. Many of them offer a feature that allows other cooks to offer their review of how good the marinade is. This is valuable information as you select the best roast beef marinade and is a great way to know before you even make the roast beef marinade whether it might be to your liking.
Another consideration when you are choosing the best roast beef marinade is what side dishes will accompany the roast beef itself. If you are serving something with a more ethnic flair and seasonings, make sure the marinade you choose matches the style of cuisine that you chose for the overall meal. For a rather plain side dish, such as a baked potato, it might be wise to select a more lively marinade to liven up the overall meal with the marinade of the roast beef. On the other hand, if you select lively and tasty side dishes for your meal, your roast marinade might be best toned down so that it doesn't overpower the other parts of the meal.
Be sure not to over-marinate the roast beef. The highly acidic homemade marinades that work best for roast beef should be used for no more than 24 hours. If beef is marinaded for longer than 24 hours, it could become mushy and unappetizing.

With only a few months before the NBA's chaotic free agency period begins, Australian Patty Mills faces the most important stretch of his career.
With the raising of the salary cap, superstars like Steph Curry are expected to put pen to paper on multi-year deals worth in excess of $USD200m.
However, for experienced role players, such as Mills, there is a real opportunity to cash in.
Just last year, Patty's Boomers teammate, Matthew Dellavedova, penned a 4-year deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, worth $USD38m.
For Mills, an integral member of a San Antonio Spurs organisation that is revered around the league, his mere longevity in coach, Gregg Popovich's system is testimony to the Aussie's attributes.
Playing second fiddle to Tony Parker, Mills has been relied upon to lead the second-unit, widely regarded as one of the best benches in the NBA.
This year, Mills' performances have had a significant influence on the second-seed Spurs, during the regular season San Antonio had a record of 36-2 when Mills scored 10+ points, while only an underwhelming 24-18 when the Aussie failed to reach double digits.
With the Spurs locked into a physical battle with the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA Playoffs, if Patty can rise to the occasion and show the rest of the league just how valuable he is, the sky is the limit for Patty and his bank account.
Starting his career in Portland, before joining the Spurs, our Aussie has played on the biggest of stages, picking up an NBA championship along the way.
While experiencing the peak in terms of team success, it may be time for Mills to join an organisation where he is more of a leader and go-to man.
Showing his class on International duty where Patty is the main scorer, this free agency period may provide the perfect opportunity to get paid and find the right situation for his needs.
