- Watch Nigma's Basic Tutorial Part 1 and Part 2 .
- Watch Nigma's Guide to Being a Better Player .
- Use the Yet another Big Hero Guide! wisely. Print out guides for your favorite heroes if you can't alt-tab mid-game.
- Read From 1400 to 1780: how a non-Dota player climbed his way to mediocrity (pub allstardom) to keep you in the right mind-set.
- Don't be a jerk . Cussing out other players is not ok! But feel free to tell them they suck and why.
- Don't play public games, they are a deranged version of what the game is supposed to be and the home of pubstompers. Also, you won't get any Goblin Coins here. Public games are for when you just want to dick around with your friends and also the only option if there's 6 or more people who want to play together.
- Don't resort to cheap tricks like Ninja-hosting to bump your PSR, you'll just get pushed back down again, hard!
- More to come!

The F-35 joint program office's first stab at a revamped modernization strategy "was not executable" because of a lack of testing resources and a too-optimistic schedule, according to the Pentagon's top weapons tester. The new modernization effort, dubbed Continuous Capability Development and Delivery, will include an initial phase to correct deficiencies Block 3F -- the last block of software dropped before the end of system development and demonstration -- followed by incremental Block 4 software deliveries in six-month increments.

DOT&E eyes 2018 F-35 IOT&E start; Gilmore predicted further delays
The Pentagon's new chief weapons tester said in his 2017 report he expects initial operational test of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter will likely begin late this year -- a shift from his predecessor's prediction that operational testing could be delayed until 2020. In his first annual report, Director of Operational Test and Evaluation Robert Behler painted a slightly more optimistic F-35 testing outlook than his predecessor, J. Michael Gilmore, who said in his 2016 report that compounding development delays...

Dr Lowitja O'Donoghue was born in 1932 at Indulkana, in the remote north-west corner of South Australia, to a Pitjantjatjara mother and an Irish father. When she was just two years old, she and two of her sisters were taken away from their mother by missionaries on behalf of South Australia's Aboriginal Protection Board.
Renamed 'Lois' by the missionaries, she and her sisters grew up at Colebrook Children's Home and did not see their mother again for more than 30 years. They weren't allowed to speak their own language or to ask questions about their origins or even about their parents.
Dr O'Donoghue attended Unley General Technical High School in Adelaide and set her sights on becoming a nurse. After initial training, she had to fight to be able to continue her studies, thus beginning her lifelong advocacy for Aboriginal rights. In 1954 she became the first Aboriginal trainee nurse at the Royal Adelaide Hospital where she became charge sister after graduation, staying for 10 years.
After spending time in the mid-1960s at the Baptists Overseas Mission in Assam, India, Dr O'Donoghue returned to Australia and joined the Department of Aboriginal Affairs. She accepted a position in the remote South Australian town of Coober Pedy where an aunt and uncle, noticing the family resemblance, recognised her in a local supermarket. Through this chance meeting she was finally reunited with her mother, Lily, who by this time was living in the nearby town of Oodnadatta.
From 1970–72, Dr O'Donoghue was a member of the Aboriginal Legal Rights Movement, and later became Regional Director of the Australian Department of Aboriginal Affairs. In 1976, she became the first Aboriginal woman to be awarded an Order of Australia (AO), and a year later was appointed the foundation Chair of the National Aboriginal Conference and Chair of the Aboriginal Development Commission.
In March 1990, Dr O'Donoghue was appointed the founding Chairperson of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Commission (ATSIC); during this time she played a key role in drafting the Native Title legislation that arose from the High Court's historic Mabo decision.
When she stepped down from this role, Dr O'Donoghue became the inaugural Chair of the Cooperative Research Centre for Aboriginal and Tropical Health (1996–2003), which led to the CRC for Aboriginal Health (2003–09), the CRC for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health, and the Lowitja Institute Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Health CRC (2014–19). The Lowitja Institute was established in January 2010 and it currently hosts the CRC organisation.
Dr O'Donoghue has received numerous awards and accolades for her work. She was made a Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in 1983 and Australian of the Year in 1984, during which time she became the first Aboriginal person to address the United Nations General Assembly. She won the Advance Australia Award in 1982, was named a National Living Treasure in 1998, and awarded Companion of the Order of Australia (AC) in 1999 and Dame of the Order of St Gregory the Great (DSG), a Papal Award, in 2005.
An Honorary Fellow of both the Royal Australian College of Physicians and the Royal College of Nursing, Dr O'Donoghue also holds an Honorary Doctorate of Law from the Australian National University and Notre Dame University, and an Honorary Doctorate from Flinders University, Australian National University, University of South Australia and Queensland University of Technology. She has also been a Professorial Fellow at Flinders University since 2000.

Confession - I found this pattern in early February, my birthday month, and fell hard for it. Happens that 1948 is my birthday year. The pattern reminds me of those ladies in early TV sitcoms who get up in the morning looking swell, and in movies of the 40's, who spend the day in a floaty housecoat until dressing for an evening of dining and dancing (with Fred Astaire). Oh, and Lucy!
Since zip locking my business suits, I've been looking for clothes that help me achieve 'swell' and keep it all day. This as opposed to jeans or yoga pants or, ouch, pajama bottoms and a tee shirt. The Serendipity kimono dress works well for me, and this retro robe (let's call it a housecoat) is another keeper.
I knew right away I would bypass the tie belt and modify the pattern with an inset waistband. It is such a good look and so classic. I am not very fussy and have little patience for hooks and inside ties on wraps. A waistband looks good coming and going, and the gathers on the back bodice of the pattern play beautifully into the higher waistline. (waistband how-to at the end of the post).
This red fabric is Tutti Fruitti Small Polka Dot from JoAnns. I have not sewn it before and ordered it online, so I was unsure of what I was getting. At first it seemed a bit strange. It's like a heat-pressed seersucker, a bit stiff, even after laundering. And it kind of dulls a sewing machine needle! Pull out stitches and you have holes, they are not going to close up. I really almost gave up on it after stitching a few pieces. But in the end, it's actually very comfortable, very cool, and does not wrinkle at all - I've grown fond of it and will probably buy some more of this funky fabric!
This beautiful fabric is from Art Gallery Moorish Blossoms line. I love their fabrics, very smooth cotton prints that launder nicely and hold their vibrant colors so well. Can be a bit pricey for a 5 yard item, but I'm always on the lookout for Art Gallery on sale.
Comments on the pattern:
I sewed a size 14, my usual size. My muslin was sewn with the original waist, not modified, so I do know that the back and front bodice length are a good fit for me. I am a bit long in the torso, so this might be a flag for someone else. The sleeves are comfortable and do not pull across the back, another plus for me as I have broad shoulders as well. The skirt has ample hem allowance, no problem at 5'7".
The front bodice and yoke are a bit tricky. The yoke is inset on a curve inside the bodice armhole edge and has a mitered corner. Fortunately the pattern pieces go together well, but a caution not to stretch the curved cuts out of shape. I basted generously and pressed in sew lines before stitching the miters and curves. Then I used 1/2" steam-a-seam to turn in the yoke facing edges, again to prevent stretching when I handled the fabric.
There are so many ways to modify this pattern, not just for a housecoat, how about a wrap dress! For now, I'll be making a couple more for 'at home', it's just my style.
Here's how I managed the inset waistband...
Inset Waistband Instructions
New pattern piece:
- Draft a waistband, 44" long by 3 1/4" wide. The length is dependent on your size, but be generous.
- Fold the pattern in half end to end and mark the center back.
- Beginning at the center back, on the upper and lower long edge, capture markings from the skirt top edge, AS THOUGH THE SKIRT WERE SEAMED.
- Be sure to include dots marking the placement of bodice gathers.
- Cut 2 waistbands, one for the outside of the garment, one for lining.
Bodice adjustment:
- Remove 2" from the bottom of the three bodice pieces before construction begins.
- Mark the new bodice bottom edges with all markings from the original pattern. Simply move the markings up.
- Follow pattern instructions through step 36, skirt side seams.
- Go to and complete step 39, hem skirt opening.
- Pin the long edge of one waistband to the bodice on the outside, right sides together. Match symbols and side seams, adjusting gathers. Baste.
- Pin the second waistband (lining) to the bodice on the inside, right side to the wrong side of the skirt. Match markings as above. Stitch the waistband and bodice pieces together.
- Trim and press.
- On the outside, pin the skirt to the waistband, right sides together. The bodice and skirt front edges should enter the waistband along the same vertical line. Stitch.
- Trim and press the seam towards the waist.
- On the inside, complete the waistband lining. Fold the bottom edge under 5/8" and press. Trim to 3/8".
- Baste the lining on the waist/skirt stitching line.
- Fold, trim, and baste the ends of the waist inset.
- The finish here is a matter of taste. I hand stitch the lining in place and get a bit fussy about squaring and neating the ends.
- That done, on the outside topstitch the waistband all way round.
- Fit the housecoat for a comfortable wrap and mark the waistband for two closures.
- I used size 16 prong snaps, set about 7 3/4" apart. So easy to put on and take off the housecoat with snaps!
- Finish closures, matchine stitch the hem and enjoy.

Improving Deliberative Environmental Management under Uncertainty, 2009-2010
Improving Deliberative Environmental Management Under Uncertainty examined similarities and differences between expert and public understanding of uncertainty. This collection directly compares expert and layperson interpretations and understandings of different expressions of uncertainty, in the context of evaluating the consequences of proposed environmental management actions that influence economic, social, or health concerns. Data were collected via a Web-based survey where respondents were asked a series of questions after they were given four hypothetical scenarios on the following topics: wind farms, vegetation management, superfund site, and salmon. Each scenario described an environmental proposal along with pros and cons then respondents selected a response option with costs and benefits of the proposal in mind.
Participants responded to hypothetical but realistic scenarios involving trade-offs between options presented and other objectives, and were asked a series of questions about their comprehension of the uncertainty information, their preferred choice among the alternatives, and the associated difficulty and amount of effort. Respondents were asked general questions which ranged from how they felt about a particular issue to how easy or difficult it was to answer the questions associated with each scenario. Demographic information includes gender, age and education level.
This dataset is available through the ICPSR (Inter-University Consortium for Political and Social Research) database which provides search and browsing access to abstracts and data sets in the world's largest archive of computerized social science data.

I left for the Detroit Metro Airport a bit too early so I had a lot of time to spare once I checked in. I actually left my ID IN my pocket. In my shorts. The pair I wore the night before. And packed it up. In my suitcase. The one that was getting shipped. OOPS. Good thing I had my Passport from going to Canada.
I finally got to try the Japanese place I've seen at the Delta side of the airport. Sora Japanese Cuisine. I got a seat for one in the front of the restaurant by the sushi bar and opened the menu. GLEE.
I expected the worst but was pleasantly surprised.
LOOK! They have Takoyaki AND Ramen!
Unfortunately my stomach was killing me from the night/day before so I tried to eat light.
A Plum Wine/Sake Martini concoction. Maraschino cherry. A bit on the girly side for me… and too sweet, but it was pretty fun.
Tako Su
Super fresh… seaweed, slightly pickled cucumbers and delicious super tender fresh octopus!!!
Salmon and Tuna.. the safest bet. Beautiful vibrant colors! Soft, a bit on the small side but tasty.
I had another martini.. contemplated getting more food but decided to buy some candy and snacks instead and play on my ipad until my flight. RIGHT before boarding I grew starved and wanted a burger. BOO. I checked my giant Chanel travel bag for my banana and it was squished ALL. OVER. the bottom of the bag. SO SAD.

It is hard to believe that it has been two weeks since I posted and I have so little to show for it!
But, to take stock:
Flooring done : check! The entire upstairs of my house now has a wonderful cherry floor that is much easier to clean than old dingy gray carpet.
Front Door Installed : check! Off with the green creaky monster and on with a bright red door with windows to let some light shine in down the hallway.
Visiting Done: check! An entire week without driving to work that was filled with hiking, icecream, movies and animals. Two boys turned 11 somewhere in there so there were birthday cards and presents too.
Knitting? Well mostly not check. I started some socks, two feet, two heel (unique construction) and one seemingly endless cuff of 2 by 2 ribbing....The construction was more interesting than the socks themselves so they have been relegated to the UFO pile until I want something mindless to do.
Yarn Browsing? Stash Enhancement? Absolutely Check...while I stayed away from my LYS during our hiking expeditions I did a little online browsing and might have enhanced my sock yarn stash by a little bit.
Please excuse the picture there is one other thing that happened in the past two weeks...
Camera dying? Check, whimper, Check.
It is really hard going from a Canon 12.1 Mega Pixel Camera to a Kodak 3.1 that is 11 years old! Notice a similarity between that age and the boys? Yep, it was a birthday present the year they were born.
There is other knitting going on, I will get it blogged about another day, today wasn't one of the best I have had, between feeling like I had been hit by a truck all day to being hit by it! (Not literally.)
As one of the boys put it...So we are back to hardly having you home and not getting to do anything on the weekends? Well, that just sucks.

Knitting on Tuesday
First and foremost...If you are not a member of the Summer Swatch Me! Group you had better run right over there and join up. Along with a sampler there are lots and lots of side projects, and I have by no means knit them all, so you end up with a lot of bang for your buck, not to mention a ready made stash of gifts for the holidays if you can bear to part with them once you have finished knitting!
The third side pattern is this wonderful pair of mitts. I knit mine in Adagio and had one heck of a time trying to match the repeats of color before I gave up and called them close enough!
But that isn't all that I got out of the group over the past few weeks...one of the talented knitters, Jeri is turning her sampler into a top down raglan sweater. Not being quite as talented as she is, I couldn't compete with that sampler variation, but blatantly stole the idea to make a new version of Autumn in New York.

Top Down Raglan Shrug based on AINY by Bad Cat Designs
Jade Sapphire 2 ply Cashmere, Slate
Size 4 and 5 (US) needles.
I should have stuck with the smaller needles, this turned out just a touch large on TDK....but she loves it any way!

End of Teasers
Well Amanda, it looks like you were right and there is lace next to those cables! I, obviously, recycled my Frog Clasp Cable and put it straight up the middle of a tank top. Knit in silk/cashmere lace weight on size 6 needles it drapes wonderfully!
Next up is an incomplete picture of some Vine Mitts from Summer Swatch Me! I am using Adagio from Yarn Place and had a heck of a time trying to match the mitts, which are actually finished just not photo'd. In the end after many tears The Drama Queen agreed that fraternal mitts were just as good as identical ones.
We spent the holiday weekend putting in more flooring, with the exception of two pieces of trim and the stairs we have finished our big summer house-project! My bedroom was the last to be done, and truth be told, the easiest of the lot with only two uncooperative boards to put in. My Dad came over for the more complicated cuts which left me to put down the boards and hammer them into place. I am VERY pleased with the lack of carpet in my house.
Along with knitting and flooring the kids and I made our traditional July 4th doughnuts. This year they had more fun making them than eating them, looks like we will be making doughnut-bread pudding later in the week.
Now to sand down, stain and put mats on the stairs.....not to mention reclaim the garage as a home for a car rather than a home for wood! :)
What do you have planned for the week?

The final hours of campaigning Donald Trump hitting multiple states on the campaign's final day in a bid to score one the biggest political upsets in U.S. history.
CCTV America's Nathan King reports the story.
Trump campaign fights to close the gap at the last minutesThe final hours of campaigning Donald Trump hitting multiple states on the campaign's final day in a bid to score one the biggest political upsets in U.S. history. CCTV America's Nathan King reports the story.
It's been an improbable journey. After announcing his run for U.S. president in June 2015 he was barely taken seriously. But after beating a crowded Republican field for his party's nomination he drew enthusiastic crowds across the country.
And he has taken the fight to Hillary Clinton in a bare-knuckle, very personal campaign.
Whatever happens to Trump's presidential ambitions on election night one thing is for sure. U.S. politics have changed forever here. He was a candidate who said exactly what he thought – not a politician – igniting crowds across the country. And his supporters love him for it.
"I really feel that he has us as his number one priority-the people if this country. It's not his financial gain. What's he going to gain from it…? He's not going to gain financially from it, not at all. He's there to really show us what we can do now. We can really make it better," said Robert Franger, Trump Supporter from Massachusetts.
But time is running out for the Trump campaign. Can he close the gap after trailing Hillary Clinton for much of the race?
He's fighting to the end-even in states like Michigan, which traditionally vote Democratic.
Whether Trump returns to his tower on Wednesday, or prepares to enter The White House, his campaign has shown a hunger in the U.S. for straight-talking, however vulgar, and a rejection of politics as usual. That legacy will likely survive this election and continue to shape U.S. politics.

Facing a steep climb to rebuild its economy, Sri Lanka — where more than 30,000 people were killed by the devastating Dec. 26 tsunami — plans to petition the U.S. government for apparel trade breaks.
The physical and economic disruption came at a critical moment for the Indian Ocean island nation's economy, which was already at risk of losing its position in the garment industry as a result of the Jan. 1 lifting of quotas by the 148 nations of the World Trade Organization. Apparel exports account for more than 60 percent of Sri Lanka's exports and lost business would take a heavy toll on the country in a year when the nation needs to rebuild.
This story first appeared in the January 11, 2005 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
"It's time for people to help Sri Lanka," said Gomi Senadhira, Sri Lanka's ambassador to the World Trade Organization, in an interview in Geneva.
He said the Sri Lankan government plans to ask the U.S. and European Union to drop their duties on his country's exports of textiles, apparel and footwear. U.S. tariffs average about 17 percent on apparel and EU duties average about 11 percent.
Although the tsunami destroyed much along the island's coast, apparel factories, which are clustered inland, largely with 25 miles of the capital city of Colombo, experienced little damage. However, while their factories were largely unscathed, manufacturers noted that the roads and railroads they rely on for supplies and to ship goods have been battered.
That, combined with the threat of growing Chinese competition, could take a heavy toll on the nation of 19.9 million people. Last year, experts projected that Sri Lanka could lose as many as 250,000 of its roughly 330,000 apparel jobs to large competitors like China and India.
"There is no doubt that Sri Lanka's general economy will need serious support in the medium- to long-term," said Kumar Mirchandani, managing director of Favourite Group, a manufacturer on the island that employs 2,000 workers.
"The apparel industry is Sri Lanka's biggest employer and supports over 1 million people directly and indirectly," Mirchandani said in an e-mail message. "We cannot afford to lose any market share at all, given the overall needs of the general economy at this tragic time. Any loss of jobs will be devastating and greatly hamper rehabilitation for both the people and infrastructure of Sri Lanka."
Sri Lanka, a country the size of West Virginia, was one of 11 South Asian nations hit by the waves that killed more than 150,000 people. Although Indonesia suffered more fatalities — at last count more than 100,000 had died there — they largely came on the island of Sumatra, not Java, where that nation's apparel industry is concentrated.
Senadhira said Sri Lanka wants Washington and Brussels to lift duties on apparel made in Sri Lanka of foreign fabric. That's a critical piece of the equation, since Sri Lanka's textile industry is minimal and the nation's garment makers rely on fabrics imported from off the island.
The U.S. already offers these terms to the poorest African nations, while the EU provides it to poor countries through its "everything but arms" trade regime.
Asked about Sri Lanka's plans, a U.S. trade official said, "We have received no such request. All reconstruction and humanitarian assistance efforts are being handled by the State Department."
The U.S. has earmarked $350 million for tsunami relief and deployed thousands of military personnel and assets, including helicopters, to assist in the massive global humanitarian response.
According to preliminary estimates, the tsunami destroyed more than 100,000 homes on the island, displaced nearly one million people and caused billions of dollars of damage in core infrastructure.
"The population of the entire country is struggling to come to terms with the magnitude of the loss and the trauma that it has caused," United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan said last week during his appeal for $977 million to help provide relief until the end of June to the tsunami-hit nations.
For the year ended in October, Sri Lankan makers shipped $1.51 billion worth of apparel and fabric to the U.S., making it the 21st-ranked supplier. The island nation was also among the loudest voices in protesting last year that it was not ready for the lifting of the quota system.
Mirchandani said the apparel industry would become even more important to Sri Lanka's economy given the depressive effect the disaster is expected to have on tourism and fishing.
He said the apparel sector was one of the few industrial sectors not destroyed by the tsunami.
"It needs enhanced market access to the U.S., which is its major market, in order to ensure a continuous flow of export earnings to cushion the impact of the present crisis," he said.
The waves hit on Boxing Day and most workers were off for the holiday. It took about a week for many factories to return to full strength while their workers tended to their families and traveled back. Local sources and importers said few factories had lost many employees to the waves, though there were unconfirmed reports that at least one plant on the south side of the island lost as many as 350 staffers.
Still, even if manufacturers lost few employees, most Sri Lankans lost family members.
Carole Hochman, chairman and design director of Carole Hochman Designs Inc., said of a plant from which her company buys, "We lost two people, but 50 people at the factory lost many immediate relatives, husbands, brothers…It's been absolutely devastating."
She said her company is focusing on offering "financial support" to get business back on track at a plant in Sri Lanka.
"It is still difficult to assess in terms of what this does to the economy of the country for the year," said Martin Trust, president of Brandot International, a Salem, N.H.-based company with investments in Sri Lankan factories that employ 11,000 workers. "The impact of factories not being damaged is good news. The fact that so many people have been hurt or killed is obviously going to have impact on society as a whole."
The port of Colombo reopened the day after the tsunami struck, and executives said that both air and seaport operations had returned to normal. However, many roads and railways throughout the country have been damaged, which is interfering with some shipping.
Rick Darling, president of Li & Fung USA, said his company's operations in the region had experienced only minimal disruptions.
"From a business standpoint, Sri Lanka factories are operating pretty close to normal," he said. "These countries are taking a stance that where they can possibly continue as normal, it's in the best interest of the whole economic recovery process to keep running."
The bigger question going forward is whether Sri Lankan manufacturers will continue to remain competitive with manufacturers in other countries, particularly China and India. U.S. importers acknowledged that the local industry faces major hurdles, but said it should be able to compete.
"We still believe that countries like Sri Lanka and Indonesia will be able to compete against China for a lot of reasons," said Peter McGrath, president of purchasing at J.C. Penney Co. "No one wants to put all their business in China."
Jeanne Atkinson, a consultant who has worked on apparel-related projects in Sri Lanka with the U.S. Agency for International Development, said she hoped that U.S. importers would realize the role their orders could play in the rebuilding of the devastated country.
"The economy really flips back to our support and the big users," Atkinson said. "The U.S. has the major export dollars now. That's where the support has to come. It's going to be devastating unless U.S. companies just hang in there."

Common Problems and Simple Solutions for a Gorgeous Green Lawn
Nothing looks as welcoming and lush in the summer as a green lawn glowing around your home. For many homeowners, achieving this verdant dream can feel like a ceaseless and thankless task. A few basic guidelines along with some tips and pointers to identify and resolve real problems can turn the burden into an achievement.
The number one problem lawn-care experts list when called upon to diagnose an ailing lawn is poor watering. According to the Home Renovation Guide, insufficient water or too much water are equally bad for your lawn. If your lawn appears bluish or grayish and walking across it leaves noticeable footprints, it's a good bet your lawn is thirsty. Generally, lawns require about an inch of water per week (when you turn on your sprinkler, place a can or jar where it can catch the water – when an inch of water has accumulated, your lawn is sufficiently watered).
If your lawn looks yellow, it could signal that you are over-watering and your lawn is nutrient-deprived. Location, soil composition and poor drainage can all contribute to over-watering. Moisture-absorbing compost is one way to address an over-watered lawn.
According to the EPA, lawn care and landscaping account for more than 30 percent of water use in the U.S. Clean Air Gardeningoffers several tips for efficient watering, such as watering early in the morning when the lawn will have a chance to absorb the water rather than the heat of day evaporating it. Aerating your grass with special tools is another way to ensure efficient water use.
Beyond watering, however, other problems such as weeds, can afflict your lawn. According to an article on Rodale.com, many problems have simple solutions. Dandelions, a sign that your lawn's roots are suffering, can be killed with spray of straight white vinegar. And a soil test will reveal what's out of balance so you can adjust your lawn's nutrients. Gluten spread on your lawn early in the spring will help prevent not only dandelions, but also crabgrass.

Rita's New - posted on 10/11/2013 ( 1 mom has responded )
We were very blessed, Rita started sleeping through the night at about two months, suddenly, two days before being six months old, she has decided to wake up every two hours on the dot! She is breast-fed exclusively when I am home, (3 days a week) but when I am working my mother babysits and she has breast milk with some rice cereal. (our pediatrician just suggested we start this about a week ago) Do you think she is starting to wake up because she's hungry? Or do you think we are just spoiling her and starting bad sleep habits? We are not attached to any specific parenting style, we are trying to figure this whole "new parent" thing out! She does fall asleep breast-feeding then we place her in her crib because we are petrified of smothering our baby during cosleeping as we are both very heavy sleepers!! Thank you an advance for any and all help/ advice!

I do love the ability to hide all those stupid Stock Apps I never use, and the ability to have 3 scrollable dock-bars, but I don't like the glass like Icons on the Dock. I am a newbie here, I've rooted my phone simply for the ability to have Screen Shot capability and Wireless Tethering, which I barely use, and I still don't know about ROMs and kernels and the cool themes you guys have here, and different boot logo's or any of that stuff. Can anyone recommend anything to me? I also have been looking for a theme to get a Dock Bar like this, that arched dock, but I want to be able to add the App Drawer in the middle instead of phone, and have a call button on the left, and contacts on the right:

3 ONLINE SPEECH THERAPY AN EFFECTIVE SOLUTION FOR STUDENT SPEECH THERAPY NEEDS Speech and language disorders can have a negative impact on a child s ability to communicate with families and peers, as well as make progress academically. These disorders range from articulation, which is incorrect production of speech sounds, to language, which is the child s ability to understand and effectively use language to communicate. For example, a child may say wabbit for rabbit or not have enough knowledge of vocabulary to understand a text that he or she is reading for a class assignment. Younger school-age children often have a natural curiosity, which drives their learning. As children progress in school and the work begins to get more difficult, sometimes they begin to lose interest in the learning process. That is why speech therapy is so important. Unfortunately, in the face of budget cuts and a national shortage of speech therapists, schools are struggling to meet these critical student needs as well as requirements mandated by the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). Many school administrators are choosing to addresses these challenges by providing licensed speech therapy services through a cutting-edge online speech therapy ( teletherapy ) approach. We are living in an age where children use technology on a daily basis to learn, play and communicate with others. Online speech therapy appeals to that inclination. Students are able to get onto the computer, which is very motivating, and engage with a professional speechlanguage pathologist to work towards improving his or her communication. The technology used in online speech therapy enables the child and therapist to see and hear each other, as well as participate in interactive activities. Students are more motivated to attend speech therapy and therapists have the technology literally at their fingertips to plan and deliver highquality and innovative services. How Does Online Speech Therapy Work? In many ways online speech therapy is just like face-to-face therapy, but instead of sitting in the same room, the therapist and student(s) and/or family communicate via the Internet. During therapy sessions, the student and therapist can see, hear, and interact with one another in real time, using web cams, headsets and a live, synchronous online learning environment. Licensed, highly trained speech language therapists Connections Learning 2 (888)
4 use traditional speech therapy techniques and activities through innovative software and tools. For example, the therapist can share her screen as she interacts in speech language activities with her students, or use a white board or other appropriate instructional tools. Online speech therapy gives budget-constrained schools and districts the ability to provide their students access to speech pathologists who are board certified professionals and who hold ASHA s Certificate of Clinical Competence in the field of Speech-Language Pathology (CCC-SLP), a nationally recognized professional credential that represents a level of excellence in the field. Speech pathologists who have achieved ASHA s CCC-SLP certification have voluntarily met rigorous academic and professional standards, typically going beyond the minimum requirements for state licensure. Online speech therapy works for students in both individual and group settings. The online speech pathologist works one-on-one with individual students to pinpoint and ameliorate articulation and language challenges all through technology tools that students find engaging and personal. For group speech therapy, the online speech pathologist works with multiple students simultaneously to address pragmatic language deficits which impact students social skills. Students need not be together physically to benefit from this group approach, opening up new possibilities for providing service to students in multiple schools and facilities simultaneously. Easy Access for Students and Administrators The shortage of speech therapists often means that schools and districts have to share staff, making scheduling a challenge. In some cases, connecting with the right speech pathologist face-to-face requires families to travel good distances. Either way, ensuring access to needed therapies takes important time away from learning and creates stress for students. Online speech therapy eliminates these geographic and logistical barriers and gives school administrators, students, and families tremendous flexibility in where and when therapy sessions take place whether at home, at school, at a hospital, clinic or other residential or non-residential health care facility. Connections Learning 3 (888)
5 Online Speech Therapy is Endorsed by the ASHA The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) has long endorsed this technologyfueled approach as an appropriate and effective service delivery model. Online speech therapy essentially uses telecommunications technology to deliver professional services from a distance by linking therapist to student for assessment, intervention, and consultation. The official policy statement of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association: Telepractice is the application of telecommunications technology to deliver professional services at a distance by linking clinician to client, or clinician to clinician for assessment, intervention, and/or consultation. It is the position of the American Speech- Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) that telepractice (telehealth) is an appropriate model of service delivery for the profession of speech language pathology. Telepractice may be used to overcome barriers of access to services caused by distance, unavailability of specialists and/or subspecialists, and impaired mobility. Telepractice offers the potential to extend clinical services to remote, rural, and underserved populations, and to culturally and linguistically diverse populations. The use of telepractice does not remove any existing responsibilities in delivering services, including adherence to the Code of Ethics, Scope of Practice, state and federal laws (e.g., licensure, HIPAA, etc.), and ASHA policy documents on professional practices. Therefore, the quality of services delivered via telepractice must be consistent with the quality of services delivered face-to-face. Benefits of online speech therapy The research on online speech therapy and other forms of telepractice is most promising. Small-scale scientific studies show general effectiveness in use of telepractice to treat articulation, fluency, and language in school-based children, and more research is underway. Perhaps even more convincing is the feedback from parents and students, who love the convenience and personalization of the individual online speech therapy approach and are seeing concrete results from the pragmatic groups addressing communication-based social skills. The benefits of online speech therapy include: Convenience of therapy coming to students in their own home Lower cost of travel Connections Learning 4 (888)
6 Increased work productivity for therapists Flexible scheduling Services received in a natural environment which allows the student to feel comfortable and offer improved opportunity for carryover of new skills due to involvement of caregivers and siblings The use of fun and engaging technology Access to top quality SLP s even in areas with critical resource shortages Access to multilingual SLP s All documentation kept in one secure online location accessible to parent/approved school personnel at any time HOW THE TELETHERAPY MODEL IS TRANSFORMING SPEECH THERAPY IN SCHOOLS Carol Polovoy from the ASHA Leader writes that remote and underserved school districts across the country increasingly are turning to telepractice to meet the communication needs of their students and finding success. She continues by providing information from a speechlanguage practitioner engaged in online speech therapy, implementing telepractice does not require tens of thousands of dollars. You just need to use readily available technology well. [ ] A successful telepractice model involves preparing a good implementation plan, recognizing your stakeholders and drawing on their strengths and enlisting their commitment, and preparing for the unique challenges involved in effective telepractice, including documentation management, working with virtual and co-located teams, and appropriately documenting roles and responsibilities."(polovoy, Carol, The ASHA Leader, Telepractice in Schools Helps Address Personnel Shortages, July, 2008). Connections Learning has experience in delivering online speech therapy having served more than 800 students across 30 states through multiple schools for more than two years. Below is a framework for how Connections Learning speech pathologists are working with those schools. All Connections Learning (CL) therapists meet the requirements for speech language pathologists as defined by ASHA and are certified in the states in which they offer services. Therapists are routinely observed by master therapists to ensure high service quality. Connections Learning 5 (888)
7 Speech-language pathologists hold the ASHA Certificate of Clinical Competence in Speech- Language Pathology (CCC-SLP), which requires a master's, doctoral, or other recognized post baccalaureate degree. ASHA certified speech-language pathologists complete a supervised postgraduate professional experience and pass a national examination as described in the ASHA certification standards. Demonstration of continued professional development is mandated for the maintenance of the CCC-SLP. Where applicable, speech language pathologists hold other required credentials (e.g., state licensure, teaching certification). Additionally, CL therapists undergo further special training in how to use the online speech therapy techniques skillfully and effectively, ensuring the very best care. Services Offered through Online Speech Therapy CL speech-language pathologists address typical and atypical communication in the following areas: speech sound production o articulation o apraxia of speech fluency o stuttering o cluttering language (comprehension and expression) o phonology o morphology o syntax o semantics o pragmatics (language use, social aspects of communication) o literacy (reading, writing, spelling) o prelinguistic communication (e.g., joint attention, intentionality, communicative signaling) o paralinguistic communication cognition o attention o memory o sequencing o problem solving o executive functioning Written Language Connections Learning 6 (888)
8 Online Speech Therapy Annual Cycle and Session Activities The annual cycle of therapy in telepractice is much the same as in-person treatment And the activities within each therapy session are customized to an individual student s needs. While the framework for each session is similar, no two therapy sessions ever look exactly alike because the session is catered to what each student needs. Welcome, warm up and goals for the day Therapeutic activities and games Wrap up and homework Consultation with parents Connections Learning 7 (888)
9 Documentation All documentation is stored online and is accessible from a single secure home page for parents and approved school personnel at any time. Therapists update documentation after every session, so the information is always up to date. Speech-language pathologists prepare, sign, and maintain, within an established time frame, documentation that reflects the nature of the professional service. Results of assessment and treatment are reported to the patient/client and family/caregivers, as appropriate. Reports are distributed to the referral source and other professionals when appropriate and with written consent. The privacy and security of documentation are maintained in compliance with the regulations of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and other state and federal laws. What can a family expect? Once a student is enrolled, his or her needs are assessed in order to determine the best therapist fit and course of treatment. If formal assessment is needed, it is conducted prior to the initiation of a therapy plan. If a student has a valid evaluation and IEP on file, that plan of care already in place can be implemented if that best suits the student. An introductory phone consultation is held with every caregiver (and student, where applicable) to discuss the student s needs, therapy history, caregiver expectations of the program, and proposed plan of care. Therapy is initiated based on the agreed upon plan of care. The first session always consists of a technology overview and a Get To Know You activity. Progress notes are delivered quarterly, and CL therapists attend IEP meetings to provide input into revised goals as needed.
