The city of Miami, Florida (miamiandbeaches.com) is the undisputed cruise ship capital of the world, with a flotilla of vessels big and small that sail out of the Government Cut nearly every day of the week . Last month, I had the opportunity to linger a while in the "Magic City" - and discovered there's more to do than meets the eye.
One of the biggest surprises was the Miami Children's Museum (miamichildrensmuseum.org). It's utilitarian-sounding name masks two stories of fun for young and old, from a replica bank where kids can play "teller" and learn about money to a mock Carnival cruise ship that teaches kids the importance of travel.
The other surprise was the VIP tour at Jungle Island (jungleisland.com), where I discovered that having little monkeys crawl over you is quite cute and enjoyable.
The Coral Castle (coralcastle.com) - literally a castle built entirely of coral - is an intriguing oddity. It was constructed by Edward Leedskalnin between 1920 and 1940 to commemorate his unrequited love, though no one saw him build the massive structure . The mystery of how the castle was built endures to this day.
No trip to Miami is complete without a visit to the glades where the Everglades Alligator Farm (everglades.com) comes into play, taking guests on an exhilarating airboat trip over the alligator-infested waters . It's in the middle of nowhere, with the Robert Is Here (robertishere.com) fruit stand. I have never had a better fruit milkshake, and Robert has been selling fresh fruits since starting his business in 1959.
If you want to stay within reach of the city, but are looking for something a little more Zen, head to the Turnberry Isle Resort (turnberryislemiami.com), halfway between Miami and Fort Lauderdale.
If you're into the beach scene, the Ritz-Carlton Key Biscayne (ritzcarlton.com) fits the bill. The 450-room luxury property is on 12 acres of topical gardens and is remarkably family-friendly.

NEA-Together 3 Moderation and Revision (Cheltenham)
Food Teachers Centre (Founder Louise Davies)
Saturday, 17 March 2018 from 09:30 to 12:30 (GMT)
Event Details
NEA-Together (Meeting 3) Moderation and Revision
Food Teachers Centre Community is running simultaneous Saturday and twilight meetings around the country during March to help you with GCSE marking, moderation and idea for effective revision for the written exam. This covers ALL GCSE BOARDS.
The focus of the meeting will be
- Marking and moderation of NEA – focusing on NEA2 (Practical test)
- Preparing your candidates for the written exam and revision techniques
This is a community style meeting, which is less formal and more self-help than our other training days or face to face events. As there are over 50 regional meetings, the Food Teachers Centre Associate team try to attend as many as possible, but we cannot attend them all. To ensure that people get the most effective help we can provide, we send the host video presentations and activities to use in the meeting. We know that this is great for your school results, your own CPD and networking, so we hope that you will join us.
The session cover ALL BOARDS – AQA, EDUQAS and OCR, so you should be able to work in a group with others who are doing the same board as you. However, for boards that have small uptake (such as OCR) we cannot guarantee this, as people drop out even if they are on the guest list when you enquire. But in 100 meetings last year, all but 3 meetings had other teachers to work with from the same board.
We ask for a minimum donation of £15 to help us cover the costs of venues, emailing and setting up the events. Please enter £15 when booking, and ensure that you do a separate booking for each person coming. The ticket must be in the name of the person attending and must match the ID that you will need to bring for registration at the school due to Safeguarding.
Maximum numbers apply to each venue, so be sure to book promptly to get a place, or add your name to the waiting list.
NEA-Together Draft Programme (Meeting 3)
- Welcome and light refreshments
- PART 1 : Recorded or live presentations from Louise Davies, Jacqui Keepin and Suzanne Gray and other Food Teachers Centre Associates, with essential tips on Marking and Moderating NEA 2 for all boards.
- GROUP ACTIVITY: Marking and Moderating NEA 2 - Working in groups for your board
- PART 2 : Recorded or live presentations from Louise Davies, Jacqui Keepin and Suzanne Gray and other Food Teachers Centre Associates, with essential tips on Preparing candidates for the written exam and ideas for revision techniques.
- GROUP DISCUSSION : Sharing ideas on revision techniques
PLEASE BRING (FOR THE GROUP ACTIVITY) a copy of the exam board set tasks for NEA 2, an example of NEA candidate work for moderation (to be kept confidential at all times), and any exam board guidance and exemplars and mark schemes that you have. All of these can be found on your exam board website
NEA-Together Booking and Costs £15
A minimum donation of £15 (plus Eventbrite booking fee) will be requested to cover any costs, such as room hire, refreshments and managing the booking system. Donations from student teachers can be more flexible.
There are limited places at each venue and we advise to book early.

Food Teachers Centre (Founder Louise Davies)
FOOD TEACHERS CENTRE is a uk based self-help group founded by Louise T Davies in 2013 and supported by experienced associates. It provides a platform to exchange best practice, give advice and support to less experienced teachers, answering practical concerns and keeping them abreast of the latest curriculum changes. A one-stop shop for like-minded professionals who seek help and information. It is free to take part and is facilitated through a closed on-line group, safeguarding the conversations of the teaching staff.
The idea of a 'Teacher's Centre' is a response to the lack of local and national specialist support and diminishing Continuing Professional Development with the demise of local authority advisers ASTs, lead practitioners and supporting organisations.
The Centre utilises new technologies, not requiring a physical space in new times, but providing the same high quality service that our traditional teachers centres were recognised for.
The Food Teachers Centre is a place of
- creative, innovative ideas and action
- practical solutions
- learning and sharing
If you would like to join the closed facebook group (you have to be a secondary food teacher and reply to a message sent to you to prove who you are)
But you can also visit our website and public facebook page
The centre is supported by a group of very experienced and high quality national and regional consultants/advisers, who offer training, advice and resource writing for food education in primary and secondary schools. Find out more about how Associates can help you.
Food Teacher's Centre Community is a community group set up to:
- provide and promote unbiased and accurate information to support curriculum development and innovation.
- support food teachers (including student teachers) to exchange best practice nationally and internationally.
- support teachers and schools to develop and/or enhance a healthy living whole school community.

I'm as surprised about all of this, as much as you are, but we must continue on. Forget about the screwy DGM business and David Singleton and all that crap. Darren is taking a leave of absense, and he left me in charge for what that's worth. I may need help, because I can't watch this Forum 24 hours a day, so it may be necessary for me to adopt a Moderator or two. This is not because I don't think everybody will behave, but somebody needs to be watching things. When I do make a decision like that, it will be just as Darren did, and you will be drafted whether you like it or not.
If you do feel the need to continue the conversation regarding the recent abomination we received from Singleton and company, feel free to start another Topic.
This forum is going to be kept alive, and it will only succeed with your participation as in the past. If things get screwed up by me, Darren has promised to fix whatever I screw up. So, he is not gone, he is just flying above us somewhere and does not wish to participate in the forum after the recent unpleasantness caused by the DGM Hit Squad.
Peace be with ya, and all dat shit...

peter2u necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 141 diseños de 28 diseñadores freelance.
GeoSpotPromos is an innovative company which will bring a new angle to locating promotions/sales to the public. We are focused on modern solutions for current day problems, while being conscious of the needs of our target audience.
We are a tiny company, but growing fast. We see ourselves as a small band of highly skilled software creators, fascinated by the future of technology and software, working on product/solutions that we're passionate about.
Our target audience will be the shopaholics as well as the occasional need-to-buy-product-where-can-I-find-the-best-deal individuals. Likely to be more a feminine audience but still include a certain percentage of guys which also love shopping for stuff.
We should come across as a serious solution for users to consider, like Google, while being a worthy media/solution for retailers to consider using over the long term, eg TV advertising
The logo will feature prominently on our site and other marketing collateral.
Logo should contain the text "GeoSpotPromos". If you can design a unique logo that does not have the words, we will also consider it too.
You can break it up if you wish (Geo Spot Promos), you can stack the words on top of each other. You can make it 3D.
You can hint at the cheekier short name of GSpotPromos, but _only_ if it's very subtile, as we want to be seen as family friendly, but have a cheeky side.
We want a logo that people will want to stop and look at. One that is sexy and memorable. It may be fancy, or it may be simple, but preferably something that is related to what we do. Surprise us!
We'd like to see something that is just going to make people stop and say "that is cool", kind of like the newly designed Woolworths logo (woolworths.com.au) that was sheer genious, simple... just brilliant!
Sound like a challenge?
Should work equally well on black or white backgrounds.
Go crazy. Surprise and inspire us if you want. We'll only be disappointed if the designs are dull!
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo.
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .png and layered .psd (RGB).

The Purpose
On mobile display, every pixel counts. To minimize the space required to display the search form, it is displayed in a compact form and then expand to full width on :focus. This way more space can be used for other interface elements or content area. Check out the search form on Web Designer Wall and Best Web Gallery for a live demo. When you click on the input field, it expands to full width.
On Best Web Gallery, I use jQuery to fade in the search form when the search button is clicked. I use focus() function to set the input to :focus stage so the user doesn't have to click again.
Let's Start: The HTML Code
Below is the sample HTML form. It uses HTML5 search input tag.
<input type="search" placeholder="Search">
Reseting The Default Webkit Search Input
By default, Webkit browsers style the search input like the screenshot shown below:
To remove the default style so it looks like a regular text field, add the following CSS:
input[type=search] {
-webkit-appearance: textfield;
-webkit-box-sizing: content-box;
font-family: inherit;
font-size: 100%;
input::-webkit-search-cancel-button {
display: none;
Styling The Search Input (view demo)
I'm not going to go through each CSS line because it is straight forward. Note that the search input width is set at 55px and it will expand to 130px on :focus stage. The transition property is the trick in making it animated. Box-shadow is used to make the glowing effect on the input.
If you need help on the border-radius or box-shadow CSS3 properties, read the "The Basics of CSS3" article.
Example B (view demo)
In Demo B, the search input is further minimized – only the search icon is shown without the placeholder text. Note that I changed the padding and width property on the search input to display a perfect rounded button. I used color:transparent to make the text invisible.
Browser Compitability
It works on all major browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and IE8+. It doesn't work on IE7 or older because IE does not recognize search input and :focus pseudo-class is not supported.

LONDON — Prime Minister Stephen Harper has never been shy about proclaiming great pride in Canada's monarchist tradition.
Under his government, the iconic word "royal" has been returned to the Canadian navy and air force.
A large portrait of the Queen has been hung at the main entrance of the Foreign Affairs department in Ottawa — a not-so-subtle reminder to foreign diplomats who visit there of Canada's long-standing connection to Her Royal Majesty.
Simply put, Harper is a fan of the Queen. On Sunday, he and his family — wife, Lauren, and children Ben and Rachel — arrived in the British capital teeming with people who feel the same way.
The United Kingdom is in the midst of a four-day extravaganza celebration to mark the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.
The outpouring of pageantry is everywhere — a 1,000 boat flotilla down the River Thames on Sunday, streets decorated with Union Jacks and royal bunting, and hundreds of thousands of royal-lovers gathered to celebrate the Queen's 60 years of service on the throne.
The persistent mist and showers Sunday didn't throw revelers off stride. They just brought out their umbrellas, many of them emblazoned with Union Jacks.
Among the partygoers are hundreds of Canadians who have descended on London to witness the festivities and honor the Queen. About 400 were to attend a lunch hosted by Canada House — the Canadian government's cultural centre in Trafalgar Square — and view a photo exhibit of the Queen's many visits to Canada over the decades.
During his visit, Harper will at some times be little more than a spectator to the regal show — he has seats at a concert outside Buckingham Palace Monday evening that will include pop stars such as Elton John, Tom Jones and Paul McCartney, formerly of the Beatles — the band adored by Harper.
Lucky members of the general public who won a random draw for the 10,000 tickets for the concert will also be present.
On Tuesday, Harper will also be among the hundreds in attendance at a special service at St. Paul's Cathedral, attended by the Royal family.
At other times, he will have privileged access. On Wednesday, he will be granted a 30-minute private "audience" with the Queen at Buckingham Palace, followed by the unveiling of a new Canadian-commissioned portrait of Her Majesty.
Also that day, he will attend a lunch with the Queen and leaders of some other Commonwealth nations.
The prime minister flew into London Sunday evening and was met by Gordon Campbell, the former British Columbia premier who was appointed last year by Harper to be Canada's High Commissioner to Great Britain.
Also in London participating in the celebrations are Governor General David Johnston and Heritage Minister James Moore.
Before leaving Canada, Harper's office issued a news release quoting the prime minister.
"For more than 60 years now, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II has served Canada and the Commonwealth with great distinction and dedication," said Harper in the written release.
"It will be a great honour to be in London, on behalf of the Government and the people of Canada, participating in Diamond Jubilee events honouring Her Majesty's exceptional record of service as our Head of State and celebrating the special relationship between Canada and the United Kingdom."
It all began in 1952, when — at the age of 25 — she became Queen upon the death of her father, King George VI.
At the time, the world was a much different place. Britain, still reeling from the Second World War, was faltering. The Cold War had set in.
Winston Churchill was Britain's prime minister. England's current prime minister, David Cameron, and Canada's Harper had not even been born yet.
Harper was born in 1959.
From then on, the Queen proceeded to perform her historical duties with a charm that has brought her respect and adoration.
She has been on 261 official visits overseas to 116 countries. As Queen, she has visited Canada 22 times, more than any other country. She has visited every province.
Today, at 86, she remains popular — particularly after the embarrassing marital problems that have struck other members of the Royal family — and she shows no sign of slowing down.
In Canada, her work and the history that she reflects is welcomed by the Harper government.
"The Diamond Jubilee is an opportunity to celebrate our traditions, history, symbols, values and institutions, and highlights how Canada has evolved over the past 60 years under Her Majesty's reign," Harper's director of communications, Andrew MacDougall, said in a written statement.
"As a bilingual, multicultural society in a parliamentary democracy, Canada has successfully laid the foundations for a dynamic cultural fabric within the framework of stable, democratic institutions. In this context, the Crown is not only an enduring part of our living history, but also a fundamental and relevant institution."

Preheat a large heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat with the oil and butter.
While the pan is heating, arrange the flour on a large dish. Season the cubed beef with some salt and freshly ground black pepper and then toss in the flour to coat. Shake off the excess flour and add the beef chunks in a single layer to the hot pan, being careful not to over crowd the pan, you might have to work in batches. Thoroughly brown all of the cubes on all sides. Once all the meat has been browned remove it to a plate and reserve.
Add the wine to the pan and bring up to a simmer while you scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon being sure to loosen up all those tasty bits. Once the wine has gotten hot add the browned meat, thyme, smashed garlic, orange zest strip, ground cloves, freshly ground black pepper and salt, to taste, bay leaves and beef stock. Bring the mixture up to a boil and then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook uncovered until the liquids start to thicken, about 15 to 20 minutes. Cover and cook on low heat for 2 1/2 hours.
After 2 hours add halved potatoes, sliced carrots, pearl onions and mushrooms, along with a pinch of sugar to balance out the acid from the red wine. Turn the heat up slightly and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes more, until the vegetables and meat are tender. Add the frozen peas during the last minute of cooking. Season with salt and pepper and remove the thyme sprigs.
To serve, place the stew in a soup bowl, garnish with parsley, drizzle with olive oil and add a dollop of Horseradish Sour Cream. Right before serving add a slice of Toasted Peasant Bread, half way submerged in the stew.
Combine sour cream, prepared horseradish and a drizzle of olive oil in a small bowl and mix until thoroughly combined. Season with salt and pepper. Add a dollop of the mixture on top of the stew and garnish with chopped chives.
Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
Put a sheet pan in the oven so that it gets good and hot.
Place the bread slices on the hot sheet pan. Drizzle the bread with the extra-virgin olive oil bake for 5 minutes, until the bread is nicely toasted. Rub the bread slices with the garlic cloves, and discard garlic. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

More than 300 students from across the nation visited campus over the weekend for Wabash's annual Honor Scholarship Weekend.
Click here to see photos from registration and the Activities Fair.
Of the 350, about two-thirds will end up actually attending Wabash, said Dean of Admissions Steve Klein. Wabash typically admits 650 students out of 1,400 applicants to make up a class of 250.
Click here to see photos from Friday night's Honor Scholarship Concert.
Each student was required to take four exams. Their cumulative scores on the tests — spanning English, math, a choice of science and a choice between a foreign language or history — are factored into scholarship money. The college will have more than $3 million up for grabs in the scholarship competition with the top prize being $20,000 per year for four years. The tests have no bearing on admissions to the college.The weekend marked the 114th year Wabash has hosted the merit-based scholarship competition. Eighty-five out-of-state students were registered for the weekend from as far east as New Jersey and as far west as Arizona. Six international students also attended.View more photos from the weekend.

Mounds View's Andrew Bjorklund, left, says he and his teammates are excited -- and a little nervous -- about using wood sticks in the Mustangs' regular season finale against North St. Paul. Photo by Loren Nelson
Ten-year-olds playing with $200 hockey sticks.
Ridiculous? Sure.
True? Absolutely.
For years the rising cost of hockey has been a concern for youth associations, coaches and most notably parents.
"We don't know the financial situations of all the families," Mounds View coach Rick Thomas said. "There could be a handful of them that aren't playing because of the cost of the sport."
With decreasing numbers in the Mounds View youth hockey program, Thomas is game for anything that signals a better – and cheaper – way to get families involved in the sport.
So when Torspo CEO Dave Soderquist suggested the idea of a wood stick high school game, Thomas was quick to raise his hand and volunteer his team.
"We actually let our players decide, knowing it had to be an official game we wanted them to be comfortable doing it," Thomas said. "They all were really excited."
So excited that Thomas says he has been asked repeatedly by his players if it is really going to happen.
Sure enough, Mounds View and North St. Paul will play at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Feb. 16 at Shoreview Ice Arena, and both teams have agreed that all their players -- goalies included -- will use wood sticks throughout the Minnesota State High School League-sanctioned game that lands on the final day of the regular season.
Soderquist, whose company also owns the old Christian Brothers brand, says the players will be using Christian Pro 1000s, sticks that retail for as little as $24.99. Most high school players use composite sticks that can cost more than $250.
"A lot of kids just aren't getting the chance to start, especially in our community," North St. Paul coach Jerry Diebel said about the rising cost of hockey. "I have a son who plays, and I don't know if I want to pay that much money.
"I philosophically agree with what Soderquist is doing."
According to Soderquist the game is the first step in a program that
Christian Hockey will launch in 2013 to partner with major retailers
to make hockey more affordable.
Like most of his teammates, Mounds View leading scorer Andrew Bjorklund hasn't used a wood stick since he was a just learning the game. He says the Mustangs are excited to turn back the clock by using the old-school equipment.
"I think it will be fun and exciting," Bjorklund said. "We are a little nervous, because nobody really knows what to expect at this point."
Added Thomas: "You are going to see some crazy passes, and heads up because I don't know where the shots are going to go. I think it is going to be a fun night."
Who: North St. Paul vs. Mounds View
What: Wood Stick Game (both teams have agreed to have all their players use wooden sticks)
When: 7:30 p.m., Saturday, Feb. 16
Where: Shoreview Ice Arena, Shoreview

In principal, all films should be seen on the big screen; barring that, on Blu-ray; then DVD, laserdisc, VHS, and on down. But some films more urgently demand the best exhibition: Sue me, but many informational documentaries lose little when seen on disc rather than in theaters. At the other end of the scale, we have stylistically breathtaking narrative films.
Wong Kar-wai's 2000 romance, set in early '60s Hong Kong, is a melodrama about two people in love (Tony Leung Chiu-wai and Maggie Cheung Man-yuk), who, through both fate and character, never quite manage to get together. Or do they? It's full of ambiguities and subtleties, most notably the ending, which was the inspiration for the "whispering scene" in "Lost in Translation." (Sofia Coppola graciously acknowledged Wong in her Oscar acceptance speech.)
"Mood" is the operative word here; the inimitable style of writer/director Wong, in tandem with great cinematographer Christopher Doyle, transports us into a sort of heightened reality. Criterion's Blu-ray comes from a new authorized transfer with improved sound, thereby easily trumping the company's relatively weak 2002 DVD.
The Blu-ray repeats most of the extras from the DVD and adds two interviews with the Canadian-based Hong Kong film scholar Tony Rayns. In the longer piece (23 minutes), Rayns provides context for the film in a remarkably swift overview of Wong's work; the other, at eight minutes, deals with the movie's memorable score. The extras from the DVD total almost three hours. Wong provides commentary for three of the four deleted scenes on the disc, which are roughly eight minutes each. There's the original 51-minute "making of" doc; 39 minutes of Wong interviews; a 45-minute Q & A with stars Cheung and Leung; and a lovely three-minute short (2000) compiling bits of pre-1960 Chinese features from old nitrate prints Wong found in a California warehouse.

I have been drooling over mini trucks for a few years now and after going to slamfest 2013 and seeing an old blazer slammed I finally got my own truck! I got an 89 s10 blazer for dirt cheap completely stock...so far iv torn down some of the interior, took off side skirts, side moldings, front and rear bumper and started to shave the body. So far I only have the passenger door shaved and will be working on shaving the driver door and antenna. Here are some pics of it so far..more will be coming this weekend! :)

A technique used in programming where not so experienced programmers in a certain programming language, copy programming code to own program and modify accordingly without understanding too much how copied code works. Frequent use of copy & paste functions in an programming development environment will likely name someone as a copypastologist. This terms is frequently used for programmers that are either too fresh (inexperienced) or old (experienced in legacy programming languages and which try to deal in an youngster programming environment).
My friend, how is now 40 is a doctor in copypastology. So easily it can use other programmers code and make it work in own environment.

When is the FBI going to start criminal investigation of councilman Harris Thomas Jr?
Please don't forget the homeless,
Mad Cabbie.
FROM THE STREETS OF YOUR NATIONS CAPITOL. Copyright © 2006 Mad Zebra Inc. All rights reserved.
Why are you attacking a brother who is already down mad cabbie, sellout! Oh,
I forgot you're half white and you hate the other half.wake up and smell the coffee you ignorant cab driver.the whites are rushing to take over dc..
Afro knowledge.
Afro Knowledge, I don't care who takes over but I do want a responsible and a proactive district government. You sound like you just got out of prison Afro!
Mad, you see!!! Now that you are trying to challenge the status quo, you are a sell out and half white. It must be your white side that is making you do this. (sarcasm)
It will be interesting to see if the FBI gets involved or not.
Moi, what's happening in that Wilson Building is despicable. I am so disappointed with Mayor Gray and his clones. Council chairman Kwamme Brown, he is so dysfunctional he doesn't have the balls to say "Thomas you need to go!" because the feds are breathing on his neck with his own mess, and Thomas understands that.
As far as Afro Knowledge is concerned, it's because of voting retards like him that this city keeps recycling corrupted selfish empty suites like Thomas Jr every election. You are right Moi, the German evil side of me is making me voice my opinion:) I have no doubt in my mind that FBI and IRS will be knocking on his door pretty soon. We will wait and see but for now I will keep asking the FBI at the end of every post until it happens!
hey, welcome back, mad cabbie! you've been gone for a long time, seems like. hope you are well and happy. kind of you to put up your cabbie friend mr. ali 2 fingers. so glad to see you back on the blog....!! stay cool!!

Another problem from TARAS was that teams were cast who weren't true "All Stars". If you cast this season with teams who all made it to the final 4-5 of their season, then you have the potential for an unbelievably exciting race.
All Stars can be good IF we have people who truly love the race and love another opportunity.If you load this thing up with 11 teams who have hopefully learned a little about the race and want another opportunity, then we could be on to something.If you load it up with teams who think they're back because the world loves them and wants to see them make it into show business, then you are going to have a problem.
Glad there is a TAR18! BUT...didn't think they'd be bringing back former racers so soon! Might they be celebrating TAR's 10th Anniversary or something? It's a little early considering 10 years would have been official come September 5, 2011 (the next Fall season)...
Colin and Christie are arguably one of the greatest teams ever.
I still grieve for our "lost" Tanzanian leg!!
Carissa is all grown up now.....so would be fun to see Tammy/Carissa on the race too.
For those who do not recall, in AR11 the unexpected major flight problems from Maputo to Dar-Es-Salaam made some teams nearly 2 days behind. The intended pit stop of that leg was Arusha near Mount Kilimanjaro (which just happens to have an excellent international airport for flying out to Europe.). Phil had to be repositioned to have the pit stop in Stone Town on Zanzibar Island. We'll never know what we missed, but I found the tasks on Zanzibar Island quite interesting.
Quote from: DrRox on September 23, 2010, 12:15:48 AMSome interesting dates concerning Jet and Cord......The Professional Bull Riders Finals in Vegas are Oct 20-25th, 2110. The National Finals Rodeo is also in Vegas from Dec 2 to Dec 11th, 2110.Didn't they skip the December rodeo to do TAR last year? I know that TAR was filming during that time, and I'm pretty sure the rodeo was at that time as well. I remember Maria and Tiffany skipped the WSOP to do their edition of the Race.Does anyone know if Ken and Tina have said that they don't want to do TAR again? For some reason, I thought that I had seen a quote where they said something along the lines of, "we loved the race and are grateful for it, but one time is enough." Am I mistaken on this one?
Some interesting dates concerning Jet and Cord......The Professional Bull Riders Finals in Vegas are Oct 20-25th, 2110. The National Finals Rodeo is also in Vegas from Dec 2 to Dec 11th, 2110.
If 18 is a former racers TAR, then my thanks to you Peach for the heads up. The all stars was a complete bust for me. Everybody had changed from their loveable and not so loveable selves in the all stars. Just about every team on that race I truly enjoyed their first time around. But all I saw on the All Stars was a bunch of fuddie duddies. I won't repeat that disappointment again. With this heads up I can skip 18. Thanks! :<)
Also, in retrospect, I wish I had never peeked at Puddin's boot list. Determining eliminations through detective work is one thing, a boot list is another.If they do have an All-Stars race, I hope the race route is made up of classic road blocks, detours, and pitstops. Sort of an All Star race course. I think I could go for that.
I'd be pretty sure Kynt and Vyxsin would be back??!! Ken and Tina would be great
If this is indeed a former-racers race, Brook and Claire might not be there (if they are likeable) because Claire swallowed a watermelon seed.

We're not big watchers of the media show Entertainment Tonight, but at least some of our readers are. It looks like Nokia had a sponsorship in place for last week's MTV Video Music Awards as Rocsi, a correspondent for the show, was seen hyping the Nokia Lumia 1020.
The phone was used to take photos of celebrities and posted on the ET website, in addition to having it pimped on the show during Rocsi's segment (you can see a video of that below).
Seeing the Lumia 1020 during primetime TV on what is no doubt one of the most popular entertainment programs is surely a good move for Nokia and helps reinforce those commercials. Speaking of, we're seeing those ads being run frequently on TBS, NBC, Bravo and various other networks and they seem to be resonating.
Did anyone else spot the Lumia 1020 in media? Let us know.

I hate Warsong Gulch
WSG is all about mobility. And the paladin has no speed to outrun or catch people, and no snares to slow them down, and no ranged weapons to hurt them at a distance. Seeing a tauren druid or shaman drop down, grab the flag, warstomp, and shift to travel form and run away while you are stunned is soul-destroying. Paladins really have only one snare, Hammer of Justice, which we can use once a minute. A second pally snare, Repentance, is a 31-point Retribution talent which does not work on animal forms. This is terribly unfortunate given that animal travel forms (druid and shaman) are the preferred Horde flag carriers.
Paladins on offense is equally hard. Since you have no speed, you cannot keep up with the flag carrier. If you start a heal, given that it is 2.5s long, odds are the person you are healing will be out of range before the heal finishes. If you are the flag carrier, you're so slow that you are easily caught. You can't move while healing, meaning you have to stay still for 2.5s to get a decent heal off. Finally, you can't use your bubbles or you drop the flag.
There's no real role for paladins in WSG that I can see. The best paladin role, that of battlefield healer, doesn't work as well when the point of battle moves faster than your heal. It works in Arathi Basin, as the points of battle are fixed and so people are almost always within range of a heal.
I switched enchants on my [Mirah's Song] from Fiery (chance of +40 fire damage) to Icy (chance of slowing) in order to shore up this weakness. So far, I'm not too sure if it's working. It doesn't seem to be proccing all that much. I'll play a few more games to see if it is an effective strategy.

I know this is totally necroposting but I can resist. The most useful thing I ever did in a warsong was running with the flag carrier. Personally I've found druids in bear form to be the most effective. Use your most underrated blessing on them... Blessing of Sacrifice. If possible have him put a nature's grasp on if you've managed to get outside and away from attackers and shift back into bear. Switch to Blessing of Freedom as needed to clear Frost Nova and roots from other druids etc. Remember that he can't be sheeped, but be ready to cleanse hibernate/fear/scare beast/dots etc. With BoS on him, you cannot be sapped or sheeped for long and if you start getting focussed just bubble. I 3 capped with a druid just like this one game.ReplyDelete
Lol. If I remember correctly, at this point in time the optimal flag carriers were druids and shamans in travel form. So I could not keep up with them.ReplyDelete
I don't think the tactic of using a heavily armored carrier with multiple supporters had evolved yet.
Admittedly, when that happened, paladins got a lot more useful.
- Anonymous8:57 AM, September 28, 2009
Funny thing is, my 78 ret pally was able to stay top of the charts horde side, simply by using HoJ and my repentence. True these really are the most useful skills I have in WSG, I really see no clear reason as to why a paladin would FAIL in WSG. All I did was simply jump into a group fight, spam concecrate and Divine Storm, and keep up random judgements. I did do better using Seal of Corruption, than I did using Seal of Command. Both are good, but if you want to better your chances of landing the killing blow for the honorable kill, your gonna wanna use SoCorruption for the DoT is gives. It does help to have a druid or healer with you obviously (I had a friend join me as a mooncow XD). A well geared ret pally CAN cap a flag. I am currently wearing full savage saronite gear, which is amazing for dps pvp. Use the HoJ and Repent and your golden. Hammer of Wrath is great for pickin off the lowbies and stealin a kill. Use Blessing of Freedome for the snares and crap, and keep up cleanses or purifies on magics and disease. Obviously use your bubble when your near death, and as a last last last resort use your Lay on Hands.ReplyDelete

Pastor Joel Gregory tells the story of a seminary professor who taught the Christian graces of love and forbearance for forty years until he retired. Occupying himself in his retirement years, he poured a new concrete driveway to his house. Finished, he went in to rest and get a glass of iced tea. Returning later to view his proud achievement, he discovered that the neighborhood kids were putting their footprints in the wet concrete.
I have to admit, I've had a hard time getting into the Christmas spirit this year.
Typically I am that annoying person who starts playing Christmas music the day after Thanksgiving, while I put up the tree and decorate the house. Usually, I've started Christmas shopping in October and would be pretty much done before Dec. 1. By now my coworkers and friends would be tired of the baked goods and yummy snacks I would have inundated them with on a daily basis.
But this year is not typical for a number of reasons.
Someone pointed out that we live in two worlds – the world that is and the world we want it to be. Faith takes hold of the world that is and makes it what we want it to be. Faith takes the possible and makes it real. It was the great William James who said, "As the essence of courage is to stake one's life on a possibility, so the essence of faith is to believe that the possibility exists." By believing that a better tomorrow is possible, we have the courage to give our best to the creating of that tomorrow.
The holiday season presents particularly stressful situations to those struggling with grief. For many, this is the first holiday since the death of a loved one. Many can't bear to see a Christmas tree. Every light, gift box and song invokes a painful recollection. These memories come at inopportune times, sometimes accompanied by a single tear, and sometimes with an anguish that buckles the knees. We each have to fight our way back towards "normal" and holidays are part of that struggle.
When my grandfather passed away in February of 1990, it was the first major loss in my life. I fumbled through the grieving process, desperately trying to be strong for my grandmother whose home I moved into on the day grandpa died. I had been instructed by well-meaning relatives that I should not cry in front of her, but it was so very difficult to remain stoic while she grieved.
Someone has well said, "God must have had a good sense of humor, else God could not have made monkeys, pelicans and some of us." Laughter gives us a wholesome attitude towards one another. When two people laugh together, there is a sense of belonging. Laughter carries with it sympathy for others; it tends to remove suspicion, doubts and antagonism. When we laugh together, we feel united, we are ready to forgive, and we begin to love. People cannot hate each other while they are laughing.
Upset with school taxes
In the letter 12/12 to the editor, Mr. Maggio seems to think that Oldham school taxes are fair, far from it.
It is not easy as a senior citizen living on social security. Of my annual social security, one month of my income is consumed by the Oldham County school tax, not to mention tax on the water and phone bills.
Dear Santa,
My name is Anderson and I have been a good 2 year old boy. I sing Christmas songs to my family and friends to make them happy. I also am a good listener except when I knocked over the Christmas Tree. For Christmas I want Batman sheets, so he can keep me safe like my dad. I will leave out cookies and milk in my cup so you don't spill.
Love, Anderson Parrott
Dear Santa,
What do kids think about marriage?
Ten-year-old Kristen says, "No person really decides before they grow up who they're going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out later who you're stuck with."
Camille, 10, says you might be able to tell if a couple is married based on whether they seem to be yelling at the same kids.
Lynnette, 8, says about dating, "Dates are for having fun, and people should use them to get to know each other. Even boys have something to say if you listen long enough."
Anyone know who from Oldham County attended Nelson Mandela's funeral on Air Force One this week? Who was backstage at the Tonight Show a couple of weeks ago, or who is leaving for Africa again tomorrow?
Let me assure you, it was not any of our local elected officials. It is not even any of the current residents.
Turning on a light is my cue to practice hope. When I plant a seed or a bulb, I am reminded to plant hope in my heart. Whenever I meet people who are thrashing about in gloom and doom I vow to hold up the banner of hope.
In 1962 the good doin' U.S. Army took me out of Philadelphia and put me into a strange place. It had strange people, strange food and strange language. It was South Carolina. I was there 16 to 17 weeks and got to like it. I even got used to and enjoyed grits (something I never saw growing up in the north).
I love you, Santa. Mrs. Claus, I love you too. I love the elves too.Thank you for all of the toys you bring us.
Anna Claire Sidwell
5 years old
Deer Santa,
I bin good this yeer. I hope you can find our new house. How many hours does it take you to deliver all of the toys?

My name is Mallory and I am 6 years old.
When do you think this news headline was written? "Gambling, robbery, sexual immorality and violence are prevalent. Half of all children are born out of wedlock; purity and fidelity to the marriage vow are sneered out of fashion. Corruption in politics is rampant. The world is broken." This was written in 1694.
Of my five children, one is in Australia for a year, one is at Purdue University, one is at IU and the other two are still young enough to be safely home with mommy. Thanksgiving was my first holiday to experience the joy of welcoming two kids home, while at the same time battling the melancholy that settled into my heart due to one child not celebrating with us at all.
After reading the article "School Board Approves New Boundaries" in The Oldham Era, I was reminded of the last election. The voters had a chance to rid themselves of four of the school board vermin, including the ring leader and chose not to. Thankfully, I no longer have children in the system. My only involvement now is to pay thieving amounts to fund it. I absolutely have no sympathy for the negatively impacted of us as we had our chance to change things and did not take it.

The most precious valuable gift you can ever hope to offer any human being is this one, simple, true thing: You.
-Your presence, showing up.
-Being in the company of another, undistracted, unhurried, with an open heart, gentle hands and a patient soul.
-Willing and able to listen, do something or do nothing, willing to be surprised by whatever emerges in the soil of sharing your present, loving company with another human being.
With our first "snow" already behind us, the possibility of inclement weather continues to increase and we think more and more about the transportation of students on snowy or icy roads. However, I take comfort in knowing we have a great staff that works tirelessly to make decisions on closing or delaying school, always keeping the safety of our students as their top priority.

text: Brexit: An analysis of the effect on EU and international trade Share this 24 JUN 2016 By: John Forrest Jeroen Jansen The UK's decision to leave the European Union in a so-called Brexit referendum is likely to have significant implications for UK companies doing business with the EU. Many UK, EU and wider international companies have started the process of reassessing their Brexit contingency plans with regards to the potential increase in the costs associated with UK-EU trade. In particular, key considerations include issues such as the location of headquarters, supply chain management, a potential increase in tariff and non-tariff barriers, an increase in customs formalities and the reintroduction of customs controls and other red tape associated with trade between third countries outside the EU. However, the potential trade and investment impact of the vote will not be limited to those UK companies doing business in the EU. The impact will also be felt by wider businesses that operate in the UK and the EU. In addition, the UK's decision to leave the EU will necessitate a renegotiation of the UK's wider commercial relationships with existing EU Free Trade Agreement (FTA) partners, if UK-based companies are going to retain their preferential access to markets such as Canada and South Korea covered under these FTA arrangements. UK Trade with remaining EU Member States At present the UK benefits from full enjoyment of the EU's internal market. It enjoys full freedom of movement of goods, services, people and capital. This includes the absence of duties and quotas for the UK and other EU Member States doing business and trading throughout the European Union. The principle of free movement also facilitates access for UK workers and services. In addition, simplified customs procedures reduce the administrative burden for UK companies trading with the EU to an absolute minimum. The terms of the future UK-EU trading relationship will need to be negotiated in parallel to the UK exit agreement. That is the current expectation. To avoid a vacuum, the transition from the definitive exit of the UK to a new relationship with the EU should be seamless. The question will be whether this can be realistically achieved within the prescribed timeframe. Trading between the UK and the EU is only one of the many domains that need to be re-assessed and negotiated. Other topics include: migration (status of UK citizens in the EU and EU citizens in the UK), fisheries, crime prevention and police co-operation, scientific co-operation, recognition of diploma's, visa-free travel. Clearly, the UK's decision to leave the EU opens the door to a potential increase in tariffs being imposed on UK exports to the EU and EU imports into the UK. This together with an increased administrative burden is likely to increase the administrative burden and financial cost of trade between the UK and EU. As part of the exit negotiations between the UK and the remaining EU Member States, an agreement will need to be reached on a broad range of issues including preferential tariff rates, non-tariff barriers such as health, safety and environment standards and rules of origin requirements. A potential UK-EU customs Union Entering into a customs union with the EU would facilitate duty-free access for UK manufactured goods into the EU. However, the UK would no longer have any influence over EU health, safety and environmental standards with respect to UK exports to the EU. A UK-EU customs union would continue to provide access into the UK market for those third countries who have entered into FTAs with the EU. However, the UK would no longer be able to benefit from reciprocal access into third country markets for its goods and services. A UK-EU customs union is unlikely to address restrictions on trade in services. The basis for trade in services between the UK and EU would be the commitments that each has taken under the WTO General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS). However, since its inception, negotiations under the WTO/GATS has made limited progress with regards to opening up trade in services. Various exiting models have been discussed as potential post-Brexit options for the UK-EU trading relationship. In summary, these include: The Norway Model: Norway is a member of the European Economic Area (EEA), the "Single Market". As such, it enjoys full access to the EU with regards to free movement of goods, labour and capital. In return, Norway is obliged to make a financial contribution to the EU and accept reciprocal access for EU goods, labour and capital. Furthermore, Norway is obliged to implement the majority of EU laws without any influence over the development of such laws and regulations. However, Norway is not involved in the EU legislative decision-making and has to accept free movement of labour. The Switzerland Model: Switzerland is a member of the European Free Trade Association (EFTA). As such, it enjoys access to the Single Market for most of its commercial activity, including with regards to free movement of labour. This access is agreed via more than 100 bilateral agreements between Switzerland and the EU. However, Switzerland does not have full access to the Single Market - in particular for the banking sector and wider services sectors. Switzerland is not involved in EU legislative decision-making. The Turkey Model. Turkey has candidate-status for EU Membership and, in anticipation of its EU Membership and negotiated benefits, enjoys duty-free and quota-free access to the EU for industrial goods. In addition, as part of its commitments under Turkey's customs union with the EU, Turkey has agreed to provide access to goods from third countries on the same basis as the EU's external tariffs. Nonetheless, Turkey does not benefit from reciprocal access to third countries under EU FTAs. Nor does Turkey retain any influence over the tariffs on goods imported from non-EU countries. Existing and Future EU Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) The UK is likely to lose the benefit of existing FTAs concluded between the EU and the EU's trading partners, for example recent agreements concluded with South Korea and Canada. In addition, the UK would lose influence over and would not benefit from any future FTAs, including those currently under negotiation between the EU and the United States and India. As such, UK companies should consider where their goods and components are sourced from and where their key priority markets are, in order to assess the potential impact with regards increased import and export costs. The decision to leave the EU opens the door to the UK being able to negotiate its own bilateral and regional trade and investment agreements with its trading partners. This will require sufficient negotiating resources to be devoted to wide ranging and complex trade discussions and the willingness of the UK's trading partners to negotiate such deals. The UK will not be able to conclude bilateral trade agreements with individual Member States. The UK will be required to negotiate with the EU, represented by the European Commission in trade matters. Absent new FTAs being in place with the UK's trading partners, the basis for the UK's trading relationships will be existing WTO commitments. This is likely to have a minimal impact on the costs for third countries exporting to the UK - where UK tariffs have not been reduced to zero, they remain relatively low. However, should the basis for the UK's access to third countries revert to WTO levels, this may increase the cost and competitiveness of UK exports. Wider issues Sanctions and Export Controls. At present, a significant amount of UK administered economic sanctions, export controls and wider trade restrictions - including those with respect to Russia and Iran, are implemented under EU Regulations. Whilst the UK would no longer be bound by such regulations, it is unlikely that the UK position would divert radically from the EU's. Nonetheless, questions remain as to whether exports of so-called "dual-use" goods from the UK to the EU would require licensing and whether the UK will increasingly look towards the U.S. model with regards to the future development, administration and enforcement of its policy objectives on these issues. Trade Defence and Safeguard measures: The UK will need to consider whether to continue to apply anti-dumping and anti-subsidy measures imposed by the EU. These measures will no longer automatically apply to the imports of targeted products, e.g. steel, into the UK. The UK Government will have to consider whether equivalent measures should be applied in order to protect and safeguard the interests of UK industry. The UK's decision to leave the EU opens a new chapter for its bilateral, regional and multilateral trading relationships. As the UK Government seeks to define its negotiating strategy for any exit negotiation and its wider discussions with the UK's trading partners, UK companies should begin to consider how their core objectives and key priorities, for example key sectors and priority markets, are brought to the top of the agenda. The window to influence these commercially important negotiations is narrow. Those companies who are able to clearly and quickly identify and articulate their offensive and defensive priorities on issues such as key markets and priority sectors will be best placed to influence the UK's exit terms and define a future UK trade policy towards their business interests.

What is it that keeps drawing me back to buying a Spyder when I can buy any other gun of my choice?!?

Who can Half-Back?
I was wondering if there was anyone from Spyder Forums who would be interested in copying a design of a Half-Back project that I bought from a guy on here a long time ago. His user name was Dirty South. Here are some pictures of the body.
And here's the
original thread
I made this into a complete gun and sold it to a guy in Canada.
But now I'm bored, have a few dollars laying around, and a ton of old Spyder parts. Conditions are perfect for starting another Spyder project. I plan on going all out on the body, trigger frame, and anodizing.
So I guess what I'm asking is if anyone would be willing to put their skills to the test on perform this half-back on my RS body.
1. I don't really know how much work this is, and of course I will pay all the shipping cost, and any other expenses.
2. As for labor charges, that's up to you to give me a quote.
3. If you screw up, I will not hold you liable for any expenses. If you screw up, then you screw up. The only down fall to you screwing up is that I won't pay anything as much for it.
4. Talking is good, and understanding is even better. Everything gets worked out before any deal is made.
Let me know what you guys can do for me! Thanks

Brentwood Branch Renovation Timeline Moves Ahead
We're one important step further on the timeline for the Brentwood Branch Library renovation project. Our whole-house recycling project is nearly complete, and the Library is pursuing rezoning of the property with the City of Springfield.
Through a first-ever partnership with Habitat for Humanity and Ozarks Green Building Coalition, community volunteers have "deconstructed" the house at 1911 E. Wayland Drive to make way for the Brentwood work. Our shared goal was to reclaim, reuse or recycle every possible building material, inside and out, so that others could benefit from the materials, the Library could reduce demolition and hauling costs, and the Library would limit what ultimately went to the landfill.
The deconstruction, reuse and recycling of an entire house are valuable for another reason: They can help the Library's effort to achieve LEED certification for the renovation project. Building to LEED certification standards can help the Library save energy costs and create a comfortable, eco-conscious space for our visitors!
Untreated framing lumber, windows, doors, hardware, light fixtures, cabinets and even the backyard deck were sold for reuse. Other items were reclaimed for recycling, including some plumbing, electrical wiring, duct work, attic material, shingles, metal siding and metal duct work. Any unfinished/untreated wood can be recycled as mulch.
Many of the interior materials were sold in an April yard sale on the site, with about $1,400 in proceeds going to Ozarks Green Building. The exterior items were recycled by private firms, reused by Habitat or are now for sale at Habitat's ReStore, which will benefit from the proceeds. The Library has contracted with a local firm to remove the concrete foundation and driveway on the site and grind it up for construction fill at local projects.
"It goes back in ground, but it has a purpose when it goes back in the ground," said Chris Houghton, Habitat for Humanity's director of operations.
The Library bought the Wayland Drive property just east of the Brentwood Branch in August 2012. The extra space will provide room for staff parking on the east side of the library. And that will bring a welcome addition – more parking at the front entrance for library visitors. Some visitors won't have to park their cars though – they'll have the convenience of a new drive-up service window on the east side of the building.
Once the lot on Wayland is cleared, the Library will grade, seed, mow and maintain the lot until the project moves forward.
The Library Foundation will manage a capital campaign for the estimated $2.5 million upgrade of Brentwood, built in 1971. A timeline for the project has not been set.
Ozarks Green Building President Zack Miller summed up the deconstruction project best: "From a public point of view, what else would make sense? We can do it for less than the cost of demolishing it and throwing it in the landfill. It's a win-win. There is a social responsibility."

The Orthodox Church uses two lectionaries -- one for the Gospel, which regulates the four Gospels, and one for the Apostolos, which regulates the other writings of the Apostles, including the acts and the various Epistles, but excluding the Apocalypse (Revelation).
b. Beginning on the Monday after Pentecost (i.e., the Day of the Holy Spirit), the Gospel according to Matthew is read. For this Gospel, there are actually three different sequences:
e. Beginning on Monday of the 30th Week after Pentecost, the Gospel according to Mark is read sequentially again, picking up from where it left off on Friday of the 17th Week after Pentecost. The Gospel according to Mark continues to be read on weekdays through Friday of Meatfare Week. One interesting point that should be noted is that the readings from the Gospel according to Mark for the 32nd Week after Pentecost duplicate the readings appointed for the 17th Week after Pentecost.
A. The Apostolos lectionary.
a. The Apostolos lectionary begins each year on Pascha with the Acts of the Holy Apostles, which are read sequentially, for the most part, for fifty days through the Sunday of Pentecost. There are, however, several exceptions to the sequential reading:

"Good-natured ignorance is a luxury none of us can afford."
—Russell Kirk
Studies show that the number of people who truly understand the complexity of America's heritage has grown dangerously small. History shows that when a people forget their past and abandon their principles, they imperil their cultuire.
That's why The American Cause is a book for our time. In this classic work, the great conservative thinker Russell Kirk explains in simple yet eloquent language the bedrock principles upon which America's experiment in constitutional self-government is built. Kirk intended "this little book" to be an assertion of the moral and social principles upholding our nation. He offers an engaging primer on those principles—political, economic, and moral—that have united Americans when faced with challenges and threats from the enemies of ordered freedom.
Kirk's lucid and straightforward presentation of the articles of American belief is as necessary today as ever. Gleaves Whitney's newly edited version of Kirk's work, combined with his insightful commentary, makes The American Cause a timely addition to the literature of liberty.
Additional Information
|ISI Books
|What They're Saying...
"Kirk succeeds masterfully in his aim to revive America's founding principles. This short, easy-to-read book should be required reading for every student."
"A welcome reminder of what is good and worthwhile in our heritage, and it is hoped that, in the post–September 11 era, some strength still might be drawn from that tradition."
"One of the best books prompted by post-9/11 national soul searching was actually written almost half a century before the terrorist attacks. Russell Kirk's 1957 classic The American Cause has now been made available in a new edition, and it gives a noble and energetic summary of what we are fighting for."
"In The American Cause, Russell Kirk undertakes the task of ensuring that those who defend America have more than bullets and guns at their disposal."
"Combines the great qualities of the philosopher's grasp of ideas and the pamphleteer's singleness of purpose."
"Puts into hard-hitting words many of your thoughts and convictions about the gift that is represented by life in the United States."

Payton Burnette: Ready for the stage
Payton Burnette sees herself on the stage, telling stories for her audience.
"I've always been into theatre since I was really young. It ties in the dance and singing that I've really enjoyed since I was young and it gives me a chance to influence an audience through important stories and to express my own emotions," she said.
Burnette of Asheboro will be one of 15 incoming freshmen entering East Carolina University in August as EC Scholars — the most prestigious academic scholarship program the university offers.
She plans to pursue a bachelor of fine arts degree in musical theatre and she has already been accepted into that program.
At Asheboro High School Burnette has been active in the Student Council, Park Street Players' Drama Club, National Honors Society and Interact.
During her high school career, Burnette was on stage for eight "main stage" and eight children's theatre productions and worked behind-the-scenes for several others. She was named to the N.C. All-State Chorus each year of her high school career through the National Music Educators Association.
She has also been active in her church, Sunset Avenue Church of God, where she sang lead vocals for seven years in the youth band, sang in the adult choir, worked as assistant choreographer for the drama team and served as church children's minister.
During high school, she took part in two mission trips to West Virginia and New York City and has volunteered with Asheboro Habitat for Humanity and with "Serve Asheboro," her church's outreach ministry.
Burnette said she's excited to move into the honors dorm at ECU and be surrounded by other students excited about their field of study, whatever it may be.
"I'm really looking forward to being in the musical theatre department and being in the honors dorm," Burnette said. "Coming from a really small town, you don't really get to be around a lot of people at school with the same goals."
She is the daughter of Michael and Tracy Burnette of Asheboro.
About EC Scholars
EC Scholars exhibit outstanding academic performance and effective leadership skills. They have opportunities to contribute to faculty-led research studies, engagement in the community andmultiple service activities.
The amount awarded to scholarship recipients is $40,000 ($5,000 per semester for eight continuous semesters). In addition, EC Scholars are provided with a $5,000 stipend to help support their required study abroad experience.
The entering Class of 2015 EC Scholar recipients have completed a rigorous three-tier selection process that includes: meeting the Honors College admissions criteria, having an additional faculty review and completing an on-campus interview. The incoming EC Scholar recipients have an average math/verbal SAT score of 1307 and an average unweighted GPA of 3.89.
