Yesterday, I watched with interest the unveiling of the "Mükemmel Sınıf Projesi" in Sürmene, Trabzon. The idea of changing the "shape" and "spirit" of schools – really got my attention – as did the idea of a "Zilsiz Okul".
The project was inspired by "Sasha and Maria's classrooms" (Obama's children). The logic – if Obama's kids can sit in 5-star classrooms, why can't ours?
The classrooms of the schools involved in the project have been brought into the 21st Century and a lot of money has been spent on SmartBoards, PCs and projectors. The rooms themselves have been upgraded, as have corridors and bathroom facilities.
I was impressed.
The only thing that was missing from all the press releases and TV news items was a discussion of what the kids of Sürmene would actually "do" in these classrooms.
This is where I come in – well, this is where my two cents comes in.
Sürmene – I have a challenge for you! And, it is more than another "Her Çocuk Bir Enstrüman Çalacak Projesi".
Let's change the way these kids "learn" in our new Mükemmel Sınıflar.
Now, there's a really big challenge.
Apple has been running its Classroom's of Tomorrow (ACOT2) for some time now. This also uses a great deal of technology but what is perhaps more important is the application of Challenge Based Learning (CBT).
As if we needed more acronyms in education!
Seriously, however, the primacy of "what the kids do" over the "tools" they use is the secret to success in these projects.
As teachers, we all know that it is today more important to focus on engaging kids in real-world activities and learning that closes the gap between "school learning" and "real learning". Change in the real-world is also modifying the emerging learning styles we all use and how we all learn. We also know that technological innovations are reengineering the ability sets that kids need to learn – and that these new sets of abilities cut across the boundaries of traditional "school subjects".
"Challenge" is the key.
We all love challenges, we all love the rush we get when we overcome challenges – and when we can demonstrate what we have created or co-created with others. This is especially true for kids.
This is where CBL comes in.
Apple describe their approach in this way:
Challenge Based Learning is an engaging multidisciplinary approach to teaching and learning that encourages students to leverage the technology they use in their daily lives to solve real-world problems. Challenge Based Learning is collaborative and hands-on, asking students to work with other students, their teachers, and experts in their communities and around the world to develop deeper knowledge of the subjects students are studying, accept and solve challenges, take action, share their experience, and enter into a global discussion about important issues.
You can find more details on the approach in the "ACOT2 White Paper" – and it offers some great, practical project ideas.
Does it work?
Apple says it does and offers a wide range of teacher "voices" as testimonials.
Actually, many teachers will see elements of Project-Based Learning or even Problem-Based Learning in the various components of CBL. ELT specialists will see elements of Task-Based Learning.
Educators familiar with PBL and TBL know it works!
I don't really care what acroynym we use – "real learning" is "real learning" – and what the kids "do" in a Mükemmel Sınıf is far more important than the "toys" they get to play with.
Giving kids a challenge is what creates the type of learning they need today – for tomorrow.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) was already under pressure from Alaska Natives to oppose Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.
It just got more serious.
The Alaska Federation of Natives ― a massive statewide Native-American organization that represents more than 20 percent of the state's entire population ― went from taking no official stance on Kavanaugh to announcing its opposition on Sept. 12.
"The questions and colloquies that came out of Judge Brett Kavanaugh's Senate Judiciary hearings last week have necessitated us taking a position," the group said in a recent statement. "AFN joins our colleagues and friends across Indian country in strongly opposing Judge Kavanaugh for the Supreme Court because of, among other things, his views on the rights of Native peoples."
On top of that, the Alaska House Bush Caucus, a group of state legislators focused on tribal and rural representation, wrote to Murkowski and Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) urging them to vote no.
"It has become clear that his confirmation would threaten Alaskans' access to healthcare, women's reproductive rights, and the United States' special trust relationship with federally recognized tribes," said the Alaska lawmakers.
Here's their letter:
Julie Kitka, the president of AFN, told HuffPost she's been meeting with Murkowski one-on-one throughout Kavanaugh's confirmation process, providing the senator with detailed information on why tribal communities are so concerned. She expects they will continue their private meetings all the way up until Kavanaugh's final vote.
"Our opposition is significant because the issues that we raise are not just small issues that Congress can fix," Kitka said. "Our concerns go right to the heart of what authority Congress has and the Supreme Court's interpretation of that authority with regard to Native Americans."
In its statement, AFN raises red flags with Kavanaugh's "erroneous" position on the Indian Commerce Clause in the Constitution. The clause gives Congress the power to regulate commerce with nations, states and Indian tribes, but AFN says Kavanaugh has challenged the clause's application to affairs beyond trade. The group also calls Kavanaugh's view of the federal government's special trust responsibility with tribes "misguided."
Heather Kendall-Miller, an attorney with the Native American Rights Fund, told HuffPost last week that tribal communities are also extremely concerned about Kavanaugh's record on climate change, voting rights and his views on states' versus federal rights.
Alaska Natives' voices carry a lot of weight with Murkowski, who is currently undecided on how she'll vote on Kavanaugh. She owes her re-election to them.
The GOP senator unexpectedly lost her primary in 2010 to a tea party challenger. She responded by running as an independent, launching a write-in campaign and winning the race against all odds. Whose support didn't she have? The Republican Party. Whose support did she have? Alaska Natives, who turned out for her and helped fuel her victory.
Murkowski spokeswoman Karina Borger said Tuesday that the senator is still vetting Kavanaugh's background.
"She will review additional committee documents related to the concerns identified by Alaskans as she continues to exercise her due diligence," said Borger.
Sullivan has already said that Kavanaugh has his support.
Advocates for Alaska Natives have been flooding Murkowski's office in recent weeks, presenting her with as much information as possible to help her back up a potential opposition to Kavanaugh. One Alaska Native attorney involved in these conversations acknowledged the personal cost that Murkowski could face if she votes against President Donald Trump's court pick.
"She's going to be out there alone, out in front taking these positions and facing repercussions from her party," said the attorney, who requested anonymity to speak freely. "This is going to take active courage."
"I think she will do the right thing," the attorney added.
UPDATE: Sept. 20 ― Alaska Gov. Bill Walker (I) and Lt. Gov. Byron Mallott (D) announced Thursday they they oppose Kavanaugh's confirmation, adding yet another layer of pressure on Murkowski to vote no.
In a joint statement, Walker and Mallott raise concerns with the sexual assault allegations against Kavanaugh and say there needs to be a thorough investigation into those claims before he gets a confirmation vote. They also say his record suggests he would weaken tribal protections, noting that that Alaska is home to 227 tribes ― nearly half of all tribes in the country.
"Mr. Kavanaugh's appointment could ... jeopardize the Indian Child Welfare Act, Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act, and other laws that enable tribal self-determination due to his overly narrow view of the relationship between federal and tribal governments," they said.

Below Deck Sailing Yacht's Captain Glenn Teases a "Change of Personnel"
Will the Parsifal III crew stay intact as the charter season continues?
In the inaugural season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht, we've seen departmental drama, the rowdiest group of charter guests ever, and even a makeout sesh. But believe it or not, the Parsifal III crew is about to "take it up a notch," according to Captain Glenn Shephard.
Every second of the above preview of what's still to come as this season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht continues Mondays at 9/8c will have your jaw dropping, from Parker McCown's sass getting the deckhand "into some trouble" to rising tensions between Jenna MacGillivray and her second stew, Madison Stalker.
Her boss isn't the only thing that seems to be grinding Madison's gears. "I'm done with being on a boat where everyone's a couple, couple, couple," she says in the clip.
And Madison isn't kidding. Practically everywhere you look, crew members are coupling up, including Jenna and Adam Glick, and Paget Berry and Ciara Duggan, who had already been a longtime couple before this season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht began.
But as Below Deck fans, we all know that it can be challenging to maintain a relationship during the charter season, and Jenna and Adam's romance might not make it to land. As for Paget and Ciara, they not only seem to be unbothered by Georgia Grobler's flirtatious behavior, but they are also embracing it. Did we really just hear someone say the word "threesome" in this sneak peek?!
Not everyone is going to be feeling the love as this season of Below Deck Sailing Yacht sails on. "There might be a change of personnel," Captain Glenn threatens in the preview.
The pressure of pulling off a successful charter season certainly has Madison and Georgia stressed out, with the stews sharing that they're "so f--king tired of this bulls--t" and that they're not sure if they "can do this," respectively.
Sounds like we are in for quite the ride.

Kiln with top and side elements

I have a kiln with top and side elements. It's 14″ square and I can use either the top or side but not both together. The instructions unhelpfully say "use side element until fusing temperature has been reached" but when I do that and try to switch to the top element it seems to take forever for the top elements to heat up. If I use the top element only it doesn't work well for many pieces, and if I use the side elements only it takes longer and doesn't get as hot. Does anyone use this kind of kiln and help me interpret the instructions?March 8, 2009 at 6:24 pm #11180AnonymousInactive
What is it that you don't like about your work when using just the top elements?

Here's what I found about the Olympic 2 element 240/208 VAC kilns. Is yours a 120 VAC kiln?
the url is http://www.bigceramicstore.com/Supplies/kilns/olympic_glass.htm
clip start
Most Olympic glass kilns with electronic controllers now ship with a lid element Mode Switch as a standard feature. The Mode Switch is an isolation switch that separates the lid element and it's infinite switch from the electronic controller.
It works like this:
In the "on" position, the Mode Switch connects the lid element to the electronic controller. The lid element goes on and off with the side elements under normal electronic control. The amount of power to the lid element is controlled by the infinite switch setting.
In the "off" position, the Mode Switch disconnects the lid element from the controller. The lid element runs independently from the controller at whatever heat setting you select with the infinite switch.
clip endMarch 11, 2009 at 7:06 pm #11182kjburkhardtParticipant
When I just use the top elements the middle bubbles no matter how long of a soak time I have. The kiln just seems to get too hot. If I try to adjust by setting the temperature lower the sides don't fuse enough. Small pieces are ok — it's just anything over 10″ that's a problem.
Thanks for the help!
KarenMarch 12, 2009 at 6:30 am #11183AnonymousInactive
On that kiln you should be able to fire using only the lid.
Three things would help me help you:
- What is the kiln model
- Does the kiln have a controller
- What is you firing schedule
Is there any chance the lid/sides switch is operating the opposite of what you think (maybe it is labeled backwards)? Heating just from the sides can cause the bubble problem you describe.

I recently had an interesting Twitter exchange with Joe Hewitt on our (as in Zynga) newly released Scroller that is somewhat in direct competition with his excellent Scrollability plugin. Both share at least one similar ambition: To give us native-feel iOS panning wherever we want it. Joe even recently blogged about how to do fast animations on iOS.
He was spot on during our Twitter exchange – his Scrollability demo performed amazingly well, while our own Scroller demo sucked hard on an iPhone 4 with iOS 4 (it was ok on iPad). Joe suggested that one has to use CSS Animations or transitions to improve framerates. He also suggested to use the "scale" transform to handle content scaling. Being an early adopter of CSS Transforms and all things shiny myself, I had my doubts about the JS animation vs. keyframe animation part. My own tests on sprite animations suggested that in fact, CSS keyframe animations were not at all faster than JS animations. In addition to that, even if there was a speed increase, there are multiple issues with implementing it that way:
- Scroller is designed with portability in mind. It only handles logic, and does not apply values. It can therefore be used in any environment, including Canvas.
- Zooming isn't as easy as just putting a "scale" transform on the content and be happy. CSS Transforms do not modify the bounding box, so the content doesn't actually become bigger. You won't be able to pan to the edges anymore.
That being said, I was still curious on why our demo performed so bad in contrast to Scrollability's shining examples. So I went ahead and created a couple quick mashup demos to be able to compare the context as well as functionality. First, I took Joe's table demo, removed Scrollability and put our Scroller on it. No content or logic changes. Compare:
- Table demo (Scrollability)
- Table demo (Scroller)
Holy crap! Now that both are running in the same demo and scenario, performance on both is amazingly similar on an iPhone 4 running iOS 4. Scrollability still feels a tick smoother, but both are very usable and nice. I wasn't finished yet so I created another interesting test case, putting Scrollability into our own DOM demo. In order to be able to compare, I deactivated zooming and horizontal scrolling on both. Here are the results:
- Fancy demo (Scrollability)
- Fancy demo (Scroller)
This is pretty amazing. On my iPhone 4, I found Scroller outperform Scrollability by a quite visible margin, and the margin is even greater on Chrome for Mac. At this point, I don't have a clue as to why Scroller performs better – one possible reason might be the missing scroll indicator.
I have heard from a couple people that they couldn't confirm Scroller being faster than Scrollability on iPhone 4. After hours of debugging, I finally found out why they saw so different results. If you have the debug console in mobile Safari enabled, Scroller will always outperform Scrollability. If you have it disabled, Scrollability will outperform Scroller by a great margin. It's completely mysterious, and it doesn't help that Apple doesn't give us debug info. I will continue to investigate what the issues are and update this blog post. Stay tuned.
Update 2: Obviously it had to be something silly. It wasn't the viewport size. It wasn't even the Scroller. It was the logging of debug values into input fields that caused a dramatic slowdown in Scroller when the debug console was not activated. I still have no clue why it was fast with debug on, but the riddle is solved. Scroller now always outperforms Scrollability.
In the end, I have learned that it's not only the code itself that makes things fast, but the context. Only by comparing against the same context, the same markup in our demos, I was able to realistically learn about performance impacts. But as with all comparisons, take it with a good grain of salt. While Scroller and Scrollability have overlapping featuresets, there's things that are different: Scrollability has a scroll indicator while Scroller doesn't (it's all logic, really), and Scroller additionally comes with zooming, both directions scrolling and some more.
And both have their respective use cases: I found it amazing how simple it was to setup Scrollability – it's a great and easy plugin if you need simple scrolling content. For advanced scenarios such as games or more interactive content on Canvas or WebGL, I encourage you to try the Scroller. It requires more setup, but comes with greater flexiblity.
Until next time!

Serious traders know that each trade they place should fit the current market type.
It's no good range trading in a trending market, and vice versa.
But if you look at retail sentiment data, traders love to fade trends and buy breakouts in ranges.
So how to be different from the crowd?
The first step is to wait patiently
You need to wait for the price to be at the edge of the range.
Note this strategy is designed for sideways normal and volatile market types and not sideways quiet market types (more on how to trade these in an upcoming post.
Rule #1: Identify sideways normal or volatile market types on the weekly charts (this should be done as part of your weekly processes.
Rule #2: Identify key support or resistance levels on the weekly charts. Hint: These will be near the outer Bollinger Bands.
Stalk entries around the key level
Once the price reaches the key level, you then go to the daily timeframe to stalk an entry.
You only want high quality entries, so there needs to be a strong rejection of the level. If the level is "busted" prior to the reversal, even better.
Rule #3: Move to the daily charts and wait for a candlestick reversal pattern.
A reversal pattern on the weekly chart is also acceptable, but only if the risk/reward profile of the trade remains at least at 1:1.5.
Rule #4: Only take trades if the reward is 1.5 times greater than the risk.
Play defence first
Another point to note, from looking at retail sentiment analysis, is how many more traders hold onto losing positions, compared to how many traders hold on to winning positions.
You can see it here, this time on USDCAD.
hey have forgotten the basic lesson of playing defence first. In this type of trading, because you wait for a reversal, rather than simply stick an order on a level, you have a logical place to put your stop-loss—0.5% behind the entry candle.
Rule #5: Place a stop-loss 0.5% behind the entry candle.
If the price reverses right after entry, then you can get out and live to fight another day.
Rule #6: If you get a daily or weekly reversal candle right after entry (within the first 3 bars/candles), then get out.
Once the price moves in your favour a fair amount, then you don't want to have a losing trade.
Rule #7: Once the first profit target is hit, move the stop to break-even.
Once the trade goes for you, you don't want to give it all back on one news event (which is wont to happen in Forex).
Trail your stop to protect profits, but not too closely.
Rule #8: Trail your stop 0.25% behind the low or high of the 2nd weekly candle.
Farm profit to improve consistency
To improve consistency and to make the strategy easy to trade, you can take profit multiple times. To keep this simple:
Rule #9: Take 30% profit on the opposite Bollinger Band on the daily chart.
Rule #10: Take 30% profit on the opposite Bollinger Band on the weekly chart.
Rule #11: Take the remainder on a reversal signal at the opposite Bollinger Band, or otherwise trail per rule #8.
You can also take profit if the price gets close to the Bollinger Band and reverses. This is the classic 1:1 stop discussed here.
Rule #12: Once the price gets within 0.5% of the profit target, then tighten the stop on that portion of the trade to 0.5%
You must like the trade
Even if all the above conditions are met, there is no requirement to take the trade.
Trust your analysis processes , and if you don't like the trade for whatever reason, then don't trade it.
Serious traders also don't play. They wait for the best opportunities, when things line up, before going in.
Different, not difficult
As you can see, being different from the crowd does not have to be difficult.
Good trading requires disciplined application of a carefully crafted set of rules for that work in the current market type.
Got questions? Let me know.

By Stacey Singer DeLoye
For 40 years the Rolle family had lived in the same modest home in the Miami area.
Ten Rolle children grew up in that 1,200-square-foot house. But as the patriarch of the Rolle family grew older, he took out a reverse mortgage to help with living expenses. Additional small home-improvement loans from the county went toward repairing the roof and other needs.
After the Rolle children's father died, though, his reverse mortgage became due and payable, and foreclosure proceedings began.
In crisis mode, one of the children, Cleygon Rolle, sought help from Legal Services of Greater Miami, a Florida Bar Foundation grantee, to save the home. LSGMI staff attorney Jacqueline Ledon defended against the foreclosure and filed a Chapter 13 bankruptcy to give Rolle flexibility to work with the lenders. She also enlisted the help of pro bono attorneys to handle other real estate and probate aspects of the case.
Miami-Dade County, which was owed for four separate home-improvement mortgages, offered to put its loans in second position to the new mortgage, but the new lender would not accept. The county went above and beyond to help Rolle, accepting a settlement payment that satisfied the debts, which was instrumental in helping Rolle obtain a new mortgage, Ledon said. At that point, Rolle, a veteran, was able to obtain a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs mortgage so he could pay off the 95 percent of appraised value needed to satisfy the terms of the reverse mortgage.
"This is somebody who has never done anything wrong. He didn't default on his mortgage, he didn't fall on hard times. He had been pre-approved for a VA loan. It's just that the process to complete a reverse mortgage short sale, which was essentially what this was, to get it done is nearly impossible," Ledon said. "I don't know how many times I said, 'The stars have to align, and it's going to be a miracle if we pull this off.'"
But pull it off they did.
Doing so required the close collaboration of Legal Services of Greater Miami; Patricia K. Green of Stearns Weaver Miller Weissler Alhadeff & Sitterson, P.A., who handled the real estate transaction; and Robert C. Segear, then of Markowitz, Ringel, Trusty & Hartog, who administered the probate estate for the 10 heirs. Over a period of six months, the attorneys raced the clock to prevent the foreclosure.
"This was his father's home, his family's home. Losing the family's home would not have been a good outcome," Green said.
A big challenge was the sheer number of children.
"They were located all across the country," Ledon said. "They actually scheduled a family reunion to get as much done as quickly as possible."
The American Bar Association's Celebrate Pro Bono Week Oct. 23-29, highlights volunteer efforts of lawyers who provide greater access to the legal system by donating services. This case took a team of pro-bono lawyers and goodwill of lenders to settle, Ledon noted. By working together closely, the lawyers managed to meet all parties' needs and ensure that Rolle, a corrections worker, kept his longtime home, Green said.
"This was what we call a 'law school exam'," Green said. "It had everything in it. It had foreclosure and short sale issues. It had bankruptcy issues. It had probate issues. It had transfer issues. It had everything."
"Over the years, I've done many pro bono things, and every time you do something like that, there is a level of satisfaction or contentment that you contributed to your community in some small way."

Song#: 1120
Date: 07/31/1982
Debut: 87
Peak: 53
Weeks: 14
Genre: Crossover Country, Soundtrack
Pop Bits: Parton probably never imagined that her ode to splitting up with her singing partner Porter Wagoner would end up being her biggest hit as a songwriter. Written for her 1974 album "Jolene," the song was a #1 country hit upon release. It missed the pop chart, but that changed when Parton re-recorded the song for the movie musical "The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas." The new version once again soared to the top of the country chart while almost reaching the Top 50 at pop (#17 AC). It also got Parton a Grammy nod for Best Country Vocal Performance, Female. That could have been the end to the story, but the song got selected for use in the 1992 film "The Bodyguard" and was recorded by the film's co-star Whitney Houston. The single became a major hit. It stayed at #1 for fourteen weeks, won a Grammy for Record of the Year, was the top chart single of the year, and became Houston's biggest career hit. Not bad for a little song that was just meant as a heartfelt goodbye.
ReduxReview: I love both Parton versions, but I think this one from the movie edges out the original. It's more theatrical and emotional and Parton really knocks it out of the park surpassing her own original. And although I know that Houston's version is one of the ultimate diva singles in history, I have to say that I don't really care for it. Her version is just way over the top. I mean, it is an impressive performance, but when you compare it to Parton's personal heart-on-sleeve weeping take, it just doesn't compare. Plus, now we are assaulted by countless diva wannabes trying to capture Houston's volcanic eruption. I'm thrilled for Parton that her song became a mega-hit (and got her mega-millions), but for me, I will always love her version.
ReduxRating: 9/10
Trivia: Double Shot! 1) With the two Parton version hitting #1 on the country chart, she became the first artist to hit #1 on the chart twice with the same song. 2) Originally, Houston was scheduled to record "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted" for "The Bodyguard." However, that song ended up being used in the film "Fried Green Tomatoes," so a different song was needed. Houston's co-star, Kevin Costner, suggested "I Will Always Love You." Houston and producer David Foster fashioned an R&B arrangement that began with an a cappella intro. The record company didn't like it, but Houston's version remained intact and became the diva's signature song.

Manifestation Challenge — Day 04 — Power of Meditation
The POWER OF MEDITATION — Meditation is a technique for quieting your mind and finding a place of inner peace. It's learning to take your focus away from the mind chatter and bring into focus the calm center within you. We all have this peace within us, but for many, it's buried deeply.
I practice a different type of meditation. Something I call "Creative Meditation® (CM)." CM is about "directing" your thoughts, not "eliminating" your thoughts. With CM, instead of sitting in a state of total silence, you work on addressing thoughts that come up during meditation. (For the purpose of this blog, I briefly cover Creative Meditation®, which is an entire book and too long to post here. You can learn in much more detail in my book "Creative Meditation and Manifestation" linked below:
With CM, you learn to observe your thoughts and feelings, to separate from them and gain perspective, so you can stop getting caught up in drama and start living the life you want. From this place of quiet, you'll gain clarity, wisdom, and find answers. CM not only brings you to a state of peace, but teaches you to use the Powers you already have within reach to help you change your life. Each of your Powers described after today will become part of your CM practice.
As you work through your daily CM practice, you'll see that your mind chatter works a bit like a television remote control. You sit and the remote is scrolling through channels, catching bits and pieces of random thoughts — most of it is not pertinent to the present moment. After practicing CM for a few weeks, you'll find it easier to stop the scrolling and hold at one present channel — the most important channel in your life at this time. And this is where the real change begins. Once the mind chatter is out of the way, you can get to the core of an issue. You can find out what's holding you back when all of the nonsense distractions leave your thoughts.
You'll find that CM gives you a new way to be solution-focused and you will find it easier and easier to deal with other issues as you walk your life's path. You'll find that you won't anger as easily and that your emotions are more peaceful. Yes, of course negative emotions will still come up, but when your brain trains itself that there is another way to think, it will take the path that is more comfortable — the path of solution-focused answers using a peaceful and harmonious method — Creative Meditation and Manifestation.
For today's CMM activity, start your meditation practice and observe your mind chatter. Remember, you have full permission to NOT quiet your mind this time! I want you to hear the chatter. I want you to notice for yourself the endless thoughts that can pop in and out of your mind for 5-10 minutes.
The Creative Meditation® practice is simple and involves only a few steps:
Sit comfortably on your meditation seat in your sacred space. If you like, use a mindful sound (bell, rattle, singing bowl) to begin your meditation practice.
Face forward, eyes closed with your CMM workbook (or a pad of paper) and a pen close to you.
In your mind or out loud, say "thank you" and note something(s) you're thankful for today. Starting meditation with gratitude (Power of Gratitude) sets the tone for your experience.4. Breathe in, hold for three seconds, and breathe back out, 10 times, S-L-O-W-L-Y. As you do this, note the calm that starts to come over you as you control your breath. This is the Power of Meditation taking over and bringing you into awareness.
Sit in this peace for a minimum of five minutes, but 10 would be best. Go ahead and set a timer. What you're doing in this activity is just observing the mind chatter. Note the thoughts, running commentary, or any visuals.
As soon as a thought or visual comes in, no matter how small or insignificant, write the observation down in your CMM workbook or pad of paper. Continue writing down your observations until your timer goes off.
When the timer rings, go back through the breathing exercise. Breathe in, hold for three seconds, and breathe back out, 10 times, S-L-O-W-L-Y. If you choose, you can use a mindful sound to close your meditation.
After this initial meditation, do you see the level of mind chatter? It's like your mind has done everything to keep you from quieting! Hang on to the observations you made in this chapter so you can see the difference in yourself as you progress through your CMM practice.
Remember that today's Power of Meditation is an extension from the previous days' blogs — so be sure to engage your Power of Intent, Power of Gratitude, and Power of Sacred Space daily to bring your intangible intent (from Day 1 — Power of Intent) to fruition.
Watch for Power 5's post tomorrow!
— Much love, Amara

Flatoff's attorney withdraws from criminal case
OSHKOSH - The attorney representing accused gunman and hostage-taker Brian T. Flatoff has withdrawn from the case to take a job in Minneapolis.
David Keck said he will close his Oshkosh law office on Feb. 1 to become director of a new organization called the National Domestic Violence and Firearms Resource Center.
The move has the potential to delay Flatoff's two-week jury trial, which is scheduled to begin March 13 in Winnebago County Circuit Court.
"It's really bad timing for everybody," Keck told USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin, "but it's an opportunity I just couldn't turn down."
RELATED: Flatoff gets new attorney in shooting case
RELATED: Flatoff's attorneys leave case at his request
FULL COVERAGE: Eagle Nation Cycles shooting
Flatoff, 46, faces 16 felony charges, including two counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide and felony murder, in connection with the Dec. 5, 2015, hostage standoff and gunfight at Eagle Nation Cycles in Neenah. The incident led to the police shooting death of hostage Michael L. Funk, 60.
Keck informed Flatoff of his decision during a meeting Friday at the Waupun Correctional Institution, where Flatoff is serving a sentence for sixth-offense drunken driving.
"He and I had built up a lot of trust," Keck said. "I know he was very disappointed, and I was too."
Keck was the fifth attorney appointed by the state public defender's office to represent Flatoff. The previous attorneys were Colleen Bradley, Brandt Swardenski, Amanda Skorr and Jon Padgham.
It's not immediately clear how the latest twist will affect the timing of the case. A motions hearing is scheduled for Jan. 12 before Winnebago County Judge John Jorgensen. Beyond that is the March 13 trial.
Keck had been working on the case since Aug. 31. He said it would be difficult for a new attorney to hit the ground running.
"It probably takes two months just to get through all of the file," he said.
Winnebago County Deputy District Attorney Scott Ceman said he expects the public defender's office will appoint a new attorney for Flatoff.
"We'll have to see if that attorney is comfortable with proceeding to trial in March," he said.
Keck also withdrew as the attorney for Brandon J. Harris, a 22-year-old Oshkosh man charged with severely beating a 14-month-old boy in April.

Thoralby Blacksmiths
The earliest evidence we have for a Blacksmiths in Thoralby is the will of John Matchell d. 1705, Thoralby, Blacksmith. He leaves "east Hallgarth … my House … shope or smiddy" firstly to his wife Maudlin and then to my son Robert.
The next evidence is in the Trade Directory of 1823 Baines, when Willis John, blacksmith is listed. The Willis family appear to have been Blacksmiths in Thoralby for over 100 years and they and other smiths appear in the 1840 Tithe Award for Thoralby and subsequent Trade Directories and Census Returns.
John Willis (1795-1875) at the time of the Tithe of 1840 and Census of 1841, John and his wife Eleanor and sons, Matthew 11, John 9 and James 6, were living at Grafton No.93 on the tithe (see below).
This photograph of the grocer's shop predates the building of the Reading Room in 1887. To the right of the shop, where the Reading Room now stands, were stables belonging to John Sadler, a solicitor and landowner living at High Green House. Behind the stables was the smithy of John Willis. He and his wife Eleanor (see Tithe Award and 1841 census return). Below a 'close-up' of the smithy and horse being shoed.
Whites Trade Directory of 1840 show the following two blacksmiths listed in Thoralby, Nicholson John and Willis John. At the smith's shop and cottage at the foot of the village, now known as Wayside and owned by John Nicholson was, his wife Elizabeth and son Thomas aged 20, also a smith (see Tithe Award and 1841 census return).
A further smith's shop, since then gone was near to Beech Cottage and was also owned by John Sadler, solicitor of High Green House. The occupants of this third smithy were William Heseltine and James Dinsdale Junr., however only 20-year-old William Heseltine appears as a smith in the 1841 census return (see Tithe Award and 1841 census return). This means there were a total of four working blacksmiths in the 1841 census.
This had reduced to three by the 1851 census return and they were John Nicholson, aged 65 at Wayside and John aged 56 and his son James Willis, aged 21 at the smithy behind the village shop.
By the time of the 1861 census, John Nicholson had retired, dying in January 1864, aged 73 at Thoralby. So, there were only two blacksmiths, father and son John Willis, aged 66 and son Matthew aged 31.
By the time of the 1871 census the number of smiths had increased to three. The Willis family had moved from their small accommodation at Pack Horse Cottage, to the larger dwelling (since converted into the village hall). It was still father and son John now aged 76 and Matthew aged 41. Edward Broderick's Valuation of 1872 shows that John Willis was still the occupier of the smithy near the village shop, but Ottiwell Sadler is now the owner of the premises. John Willis died in December 1874 aged 80. His son Matthew Heseltine Willis and grandson John Willis took over the business.
Following John Nicholson's death in 1864, the smithy at Wayside was now owned by his son Thomas. So, it is presumably here that Leonard Heseltine, aged 46 and inn keeper of the George Inn used as his smithy. In Kelly's Trade Directory of 1872 the following are listed for Thoralby: Heseltine Lnrd. George inn, & blacksmith and Willis John, blacksmith. However, in the Kelly's Trade Directory for Thoralby of 1879 the following are listed for Thoralby: Heseltine Richd. George inn, & blacksmith and Willis Matthew, blacksmith.
By the time of the 1881 census there are only two people whose occupation is blacksmith and they are father and son Matthew H. Willis, aged 51 and son John aged 24. It is probably sometime around this period that the blacksmiths shop behind the village shop, which the Willis family had occupied from the Sadler family, John and later Ottiwell, moved premises to the smithy at Wayside. Bulmer's Directory of 1890 lists the following for Thoralby: Willis Matthew Heseltine and Son, blacksmiths. Matthew's son is clearly a partner in the business.
By the time of the 1891 census, there are once again three people with the occupation of blacksmith in the village of Thoralby. Father Matthew H. Willis Snr., aged 61, son John Willis aged 35 and partner and youngest son Matthew H. Willis Junr., aged 18. The Trade Directory Kellys of 1893 lists the following for Thoralby: Willis Matthew, blacksmith.
By the time of the 1901 census there remained three people with the occupation of blacksmith in the village of Thoralby. Father Matthew H. Willis Snr., aged 71, son John aged 44 and partner and youngest son Matthew H. Willis Junr., aged 26, also in the business. In November 1903 Matthew Heseltine Willis Snr., died at the age of 74. The following Trade Directories reflect this as in Kelly's Directory of 1905 lists the following for Thoralby: Willis Matthew (Mrs.) & Sons, registered shoeing smiths. However, in March 1907 Jane Willis, widow of Matthew Heseltine Willis Snr., died aged 72. The Kelly's Directory of 1909 lists the following for Thoralby: Willis Matthew H. & Sons, registered shueing smiths.
By 1910, the Willis family had moved their business into the smithy shown here, which was near Lime Tree House and the 1910 Valuation shows that John and Matthew Willis are the owners of the smith's shop. The left-hand side of the building known today as Wayside Cottage was a blacksmith's forge and the right-hand side a joiner's and wheelwright's shop. The three employees on the left were smiths: an unknown employee (Matthew Willis - not believed to be related) with a sledgehammer, Matthew Heseltine Willis and Johnnie Willis. The two on the right were joiners: another Matthew Willis and George Dent Willis.
Above photograph of the Arekengarthdale, Swaledale, blacksmith, shoeing a horse. Notice the leather apron and clogs, similar to those worn by the Willis family at Thoralby. The busiest time of the year for the smiths was just before haytime, they attended to horses and also made and maintained a variety of implements and machines. An example of such a machine is photographed below. It is a double-horse mower, sat on the mower are my great-grandfather William Dinsdale and his son Francis Spence Dinsdale of Grange Farm, Newbiggin in the 1930s.
By the time of the 1911 census there remained three people with the occupation of blacksmith in the village of Thoralby, but only brothers John Willis aged 54 and Matthew H. Willis Junr. aged 38 were living in Thoralby.
Kelly's Trade Directories during 1913-1925 lists the following for Thoralby: Willis Matthew H. & Sons, registered shoeing smiths.
The table below shows the National Farriers and Blacksmiths, Price List for Shoeing in 1922. Prices ranged from 7 shillings to 13 shillings for a heavy cart horse. Information courtesy of East Riding Archives.
Matthew H. Willis Junr., died in July 1926, aged 53, (married in 1912 Amelia Watson, lived at Lime Tree House). His brother John Willis, aged 70 later the same month advertised the business for sale, meaning the end of the Willis family trade after more than 100 years. John Willis died in 1932, aged 76, never married, lived in family home of Rose Cottage, his father's home.
End of the Willis family trade advertised in the Leeds Mercury, July 1926 by J. Willis, aged seventy.
The Kelly's Trade Directory of 1929 lists the following for Thoralby: Moore Thos. shoeing smith. However, Thomas Moore had left Thoralby by 1933, when the same directory lists the following for Thoralby: Alderson Wm. Blacksmith and the same for the 1937 Directory. By the time of the 1939 Identity Register William Alderson, aged 55 has left Thoralby, moving the blacksmiths business to Aysgarth, meaning for the first time in several hundred years there was no village blacksmith at Thoralby.
Below is a table with the names of the known Blacksmiths working at Thoralby from 1690s-1930s. They are listed in alphabetical order by their surname. In the 1840s and again in the 1870s there were four working blacksmiths.

So Sad: Rapper G Herbo's Girlfriend Weeps At Baby Shower While Rapper Remains In Jail
G Herbo Arrested On Gun Charges Before Baby Shower
Poor Thing.
On February 22, 2017 rapper G Herbo was taken into custody by Chicago PD along with two of his buddies after a limousine driver tipped off police that the three amigos were playing with pistols. According to The Chicago Sun Times, Herbert Wright, 22, of the South Side Calumet Heights neighborhood; Deavonte Royale Kimble, 25, of Compton, California; and Marchello Walton, 36, of Phenix City, Alabama, were all arrested after a stop when the officers found that they were each armed with a loaded gun, police said.
Unfortunately for Herbert aka G Herbo, his baby mama's baby shower was just two days after the arrest and he missed it! He and his girlfriend plan to be married in six months too, hopefully he's out to see it through.
Herbo's bail was set reportedly at $25,000 during a hearing Friday before Judge John F. Lyke Jr. and his next court date was scheduled for March 2, so maybe he's choosing to wait for his hearing instead of forking over bail money? Sadly, mother-to-be Ari had to host her baby shower along, and she wept while making her entrance.
At least she looks beautiful with her bump. Hit the flip for more of Ari and her gut full of G herbo after the flip.

SkyBet have slashed odds on Jack Wilshere making a move to West Ham from Arsenal this summer to their shortest ever and the Hammers are now odds on to sign him up.
Huddersfield were the previous favourites to sign the 25-year-old as they look to bolster their ranks ahead of their debut Premier League season but that hasn't last long.
West Ham are now 5/6 on to secure Wilshere's signature, cut from 5/1 previously, while Huddersfield have moved out to 6/1 from a previous favourite price of 5/2.
Wilshere has made just 32 Premier League starts in the past three season as he has been plagued by injury problems. He spent last season on loan at Bournemouth and featured a lot more than previously but it was still ended early by a fractured leg.
Arsenal have yet to show their hand with Wilshere having just one year left on his current deal at the Emirates but as yet, they have given no indication they will be offering him a new deal.
West Ham were linked with a £30m swoop for the midfielder earlier this year - vastly overpriced - and he could be available this summer for a whole lot less than that.

With the recent snowstorm wreaking havoc on the Island, many people were left stranded at home unable to get to work, leaving some wondering if you get paid when you miss work because of weather conditions?
Stephen Portman, advocacy lead at Together Against Poverty (TAPS), says the answer depends on two things.
"Two key examples: you're part of a union that has a provision in a collective bargaining agreement or you have an employment contract that sets out that you're paid for closures in case of a snowstorm," says Portman.
According to Portman, the majority of low-wage workers in B.C. are operating without those things.
"They're operating under the Employment Standards Act and will have gone without pay for that day," says Portman.
Eric Nordal, spokesperson for Retail Action Network, agrees and says the snow days aren't helping out people in the retail and service industry.
"[The days off] don't really work out in their favour if they're relying on that wage," says Nordal.
According to Nordal, workers in B.C. don't get paid sick days so if they have to miss a shift that's on them.
If workers show up for a shift and are told to go home due to the snow, they are then entitled to the minimum daily pay, but Nordal says that's usually in the two- to four-hour range.
"It's the day to day, family emergency situations that add to the precarity that people face — if they miss a day of work it's that much harder to pay rent that month," says Nordal.
Portman calls the Employment Standards Act a basement, the bottom piece of law that workers can rely on.
"So if an employer just decides to pay their workers for losing work during that day then that's great. But if the only protection you have is the Employment Standards Act and you have no employment contract or an oral agreement with an employer … you're essentially not getting paid for anything."
For those in the hospitality industry, the snowstorm meant an increase in revenue, with most hotels in Sidney booked full or nearly full after many ferries and flights were canceled due to the snow.
Teachers in all school districts were also paid for work missed due to the snow.
Precarious work is defined as workers who fill permanent job needs but are denied permanent employee rights by the International Labor Rights Forum. These workers are usually part-time and are subject to unstable employment, lower wages and harsher working conditions.
According to BC Stats, 22,600 part-time jobs were added while full-time jobs declined by 13,900 in January alone.

The automotive industry started in 1893 when Charles and Frank Duryea designed and built the first gasoline-engine-propelled motor vehicle. This invention opened the doors to the automotive industry. During the next 30 years, many people tried to enter the industry, but only a few were successful. The Early YearsDuring the early years, every car was built entirely by hand. This process was not only very slow, but it was very expensive. This is the primary reason so many early innovators went out of business and the other ones were not profitable enough to expand their business.
Henry Ford changed that when he introduced the assembly line. This both increased production speed and decreased cost. This idea of mass production revolutionized the automobile industry. Soon all of the top auto producers would have a assembly line of their own. The lower costs and faster delivery meant a lower price, and the average family could afford and get one. Ford's Model T soon became the most popular car of the time (Chandler 15).
The Great DepressionIn October of 1929, America experienced a crash in the stock market that left the thriving country poor and desperate. With the decline in both disposable and discrete income, the demand for new automobiles almost stopped. This huge decrease in demand forced major cutbacks in spending, factories were closed, employees were laid off, and production was almost halted. Many of the smaller plants couldn't afford to stay in business. The United States time of prosperity had ended.
WWIIDuring the early 1940s, the United States as Hitler rose to power in Germany, and our relationship with Japan grew more and more tense. When Hitler invaded France and started the war, the United States was quick to respond. The United States started producing many different pieces of war equipment.
The auto industry was the first to respond by reopening many of there shut down plants and producing troop transport vehicles, tanks, planes and just about anything else the government wanted. Under the direction of President Roosevelt, Ford Motor Company built a huge assembly plant in Michigan to produce B-29 bombers. The war pulled the United States out the great depression and jump-started its economy (Chandler 25).
The 1950s and 1960sThe war ended in 1945 and brought a fallen country back to its feet. With the economy in great shape and prosperity on the minds of many Americans, the auto industry thrived once again. The big three, as they would soon be known, slowly took form. They included General Motors, Chrysler, and the Ford Motor Company.
In the late 1950s, the United States saw the beginning of foreign cars being imported. This posed very little threat to the market share held by the big three because the quality of the foreign cars was very poor. The 1960s are best remembered as the muscle car era. This was a time of low gas prices and high horsepower. During this time, many new and exciting cars were built such as the Pontiac GTO, Chevrolet Camero, and the Ford Mustang.
The Ford Mustang was, by far the most popular car of the decade (Ford Facts 1). It was during this time that the automotive industry became more sensitive to the demands of the consumer, and product lines changed almost every year. The cars kept getting bigger and faster. This was an era of good times and fast cars.
The 1970s and 1980sIn the early 1970s, the United States felt a huge increase in the price of gas. This marked the end of the muscle car era and the beginning of the compact and sub-compact car era. While the big three were hurrying to release a car with better gas mileage, Honda introduced the first compact car in the United States. In the early 1970s, Ford introduced the Pinto. In hurrying to get a compact car on the market, the quality people had come to expect had been jeopardized.
The Pinto was one of the most unsafe cars ever built, and it took Ford a long time to live that mistake down. It wasn't until the 1980s that the big three had changed almost all of their cars to a smaller better gas mileage type car. Ford had the Escort, Chrysler the "K cars," and Chevrolet the Nova. All of these cars also utilized a front wheel drive system. During the 1980s the gas prices stabilized, and the country experienced a period of prosperity. This also changed what people wanted in their automobiles. They wanted more power and innovation. At the end of the decade, new improvements such as antilock brakes, cruise control, and fuel injection had been implemented. 1990 to Present.
The 1990s are an exciting time. In the world today auto-makers are putting more effort in making the consumer happier and more loyal. They have introduced many new innovations such as dual airbags, better rust protection, and greater performance. With the millennium just around the corner, the most vital aspect of any company is its ability to meet the changing demands of the consumer.
The Ford Motor Company is the second largest auto manufacturer in the United States behind General Motors. Ford has quite a few divisions: Ford, Mercury, Lincoln, Jaguar, and its Financial Services. This section will start at the present and look back to the very beginning of the Ford Motor Company.
The BeginningIn 1893 Charles and Frank Duryea designed and built the first gasoline-engine-propelled motor vehicle. This marked the very beginning of the automotive industry. In 1896, Henry Ford built his first motor vehicle: the "Quadricycle." The Quadricycle was an automobile with a two-cylinder, four-horsepower engine. This invention was what marked the beginning of a legacy.
In 1908, Ford introduced the Model T (Chandler 23). The Model T was the most successful automobile in the country. This success was due to the assembly line that Henry Ford invented. This approach not only lowered the production costs but also increased the amount of cars produced. By 1916 Ford had produced one million cars (Ford Facts 1). When Ford Motors released the Model T they established itself as a leader in the automotive industry. Ford continued to produce the Model T until 1927. Ford produced about16 million Model Ts (Ford Facts 1).
The 1930s and 1940sDuring the great depression, the demand for cars in the United States dropped to an all-time low. Ford was forced to shut down plants and lay off thousands of employees. Ford found hope in the market overseas. Ford opened two new plants, one in Germany, and one in England.
In 1932, Ford built the Model Y, a car designed specifically for Europe (Ford Facts 1)The United States entered WWII in 1941, and was the same year, that Ford started making utility vehicles "jeeps" for the U.S. Military. In 1942 Ford Motor Company halted all production of civilian car output and shifted to total military production (Ford Facts 1). During the war Ford built everything from jeeps to airplanes. When the war ended in 1945 Ford began to produce civilian vehicles again. WWII helped pull America out of the great depression and give Ford a hand in rebuilding its United States plants.
The 1950s and 1960sDuring the 1950s, the public began to want bigger cars. Ford introduced the Thunderbird in 1954 and the Continental Mark II in 1955. These cars helped satisfy the public's demand for a larger, roomier car. During the 1950s, Ford became a publicly traded company and also introduced the Ford credit program (Ford Facts 1).
By 1960 Ford had sold 50 million cars. The 1960s were the muscle car era. During this era the public's demand had shifted gears to a faster more sporty style car. Ford introduced the Mustang in 1964 at the New York World's Fair. The Mustang was one of the best selling cars that Ford had ever built. It was small, sporty, and cost about 30 percent less than people expected to pay. With the Mustang leading the way Ford enjoyed the muscle car era with good growth and market share (McCarthy 20).
The 1970s and 1980sThe 1970 gas crunch took the United States by surprise and the public's demand changed overnight. The cry for a smaller car with better gas mileage was heard throughout the country. Ford responded with the Pinto, a small economical car with one very large flaw; it was very unsafe in a rear collision accident. This mistake would haunt Ford for many years to come. In the 1980s, Ford introduced both the Escort and the Taurus, two of America's best selling cars (Ford Facts 1).
The trend in the automotive industry was getting back to power and comfort with the baby boomers getting older. Most of the cars Ford introduced were front-wheel drive, a trend that started in the late 1970s. During the 1980s, the Ford F-Series trucks were the best selling trucks.
The 1990sFord entered the 1990s strong and quick to meet the changing demands of the consumer. Ford continued to remain a leader in the 1990s. The Ford Taurus was named the best selling car many times. The Ford F-Series trucks were also named the best selling vehicle for 10 years. The latest trend in the 1990s is in sport utility vehicles. Ford recognized this market and is the industry leader in SUVs with both the Ford Explorer and the Navigator.
The Ford Mustang is as American as apple pie and baseball. The Mustang is classified as both a passenger car and as an American sports car. This section will discuss the American sports car category and describe the Mustang.
The American Sports Car Product CategoryThe American sports car category was created in the 1960s. The Ford Mustang really kicked off the decade with its introduction in 1964. Others were quick to follow like the Chevrolet Camero and the Pontiac GTO. This class was created to describe cars whose primary purpose wasn't to haul people or luggage, but to just have fun driving. Today this class still includes the Mustang and Camero, but it also includes other cars such as the Dodge Viper, the Dodge Stealth and the Chevrolet Corvette.
The Ford Mustang Product DescriptionThe Ford Mustang has been around every year since its introduction in 1964. Two years after the car was introduced the millionth Mustang rolled off the assembly line (Ford Facts 1). The Mustang of today is as fun and exciting to drive, as was the Mustang of 1964. The Mustang still remains true to the American classic car with a V8 engine and rear wheel drive.
