San Diego's largest locally owned financial institution, recently served as the title sponsor of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society's San Diego County Credit Union 2014 Walk MS, held in San Diego on April 26 and 27.
Two San Diego County Credit Union Walk MS events were held. On Saturday morning, April 26, at NTC Park at Liberty Station in San Diego's Point Loma area, 3,314 walkers walked a three-mile route along San Diego Bay and helped raise $434,107 in donations. Then, on Sunday morning, April 27, at LEGOLAND® California Resort in Carlsbad, Calif., 3,439 walked a 1.5-mile route through the park and helped raise $463,121. Combined, the two fundraising walks drew more than 6,700 walkers who helped raise nearly $900,000 in donations.
Proceeds from Walk MS will benefit research and programs and services for people with MS, an unpredictable, often disabling disease of the central nervous system that interrupts the flow of information within the brain and between the brain and body. Walkers will qualify for prizes, including t-shirts, movie tickets and gift cards, based on the amount of donations collected before the June 3 deadline.
"We were proud to participate in such inspirational Walk MS events that celebrate the power of a community coming together in a movement toward a world free of multiple sclerosis," said SDCCU President and CEO Teresa Halleck. "We were also proud of Team SDCCU, a volunteer group made up of our employees, customers and friends, who were there on both days to step out in the fight against MS."
Close to 175 employees, family members and friends represented Team SDCCU over the two days of events. At the post-event Walk MS awards ceremony at LEGOLAND, Team SDCCU was selected by National MS Society officials for the "coolest team" award. Other awards presented included best rookie team captain, costumes and number of walkers.
SDCCU has supported Walk MS for more than 15 years and has served as title sponsor since 2002. Over the years, SDCCU's sponsorship support for Walk MS has exceeded $1 million, according to the National MS Society's San Diego-based Pacific South Coast Chapter.

How to Dry Herbs
This is the time of year I find myself drying herbs. In part, it is because I tend to come across special, unusual varietals in the spring and summer - caraway thyme, pineapple sage, fresh coriander. Some will appear for a week or two, then aren't seen again for another year...
Baked Farro Pasta
A cold-weather crowd-pleaser made of alternating layers of broken farro pasta, sliced potatoes, two cheeses, and mustardy shredded cabbage. The sort of thing you can prep a day or two ahead of time, and then bake when convenient.
Mark Bittman's Autumn Millet Bake
This millet bake recipe is a largely hands-off, winter squash-based casserole that uses golden millet, baked squash, pumpkin seeds and jewel-toned cranberries. A perfect Thanksgiving recipe for those of you collecting ideas.

We've always been huge fans of InterConnection (down on Pacific near Gas Works) for their work refurbishing old computers for poor communities around the world, for providing job training for people here in Seattle and for selling really cheap used computers and parts to help finance those efforts. It should come as no surprise, then, that they're offering to pitch in how they can in response to the disaster in Haiti. Ally writes:
In the wake of the earthquake in Haiti, InterConnection will be donating laptops to NGOs and aid organizations working in Port-au-Prince. The goal is to get 100 laptops to Haiti as soon as possible. We've partnered with World Concern to accomplish this goal. We will be refurbishing the donated laptops and installing French software and sending the laptops to Haiti with World Concern staff members. So if you've got an old laptop you've been thinking about donating, now would be a great time to do so! More info here: http://www.interconnection.org/haiti.html

In interviews – including one forthcoming with yours truly – Glenn Close has been telling people how she's struggled to bring the character of Albert Nobbs to the big screen for, well, forever. Playing a woman forced to disguise herself as a man in order to survive in 19th century Ireland, Close has rightly received accolades for her performance, not to mention a Golden Globe best actress nomination. And don't be surprised if an Oscar nod follows when the Academy announces its nominees on Jan. 24.
Well, here's a photo of Close in the original Manhattan Theatre Club Downstage production of The Singular Life of Albert Nobbs, written and directed by Simone Benmussa, adapting a short story by George Moore. Albert Nobbs the film, directed by Rodrigo Garcia from a screenplay by Close and John Banville, opens in the Philly area on Jan. 27.

The last two months Derek has been nothing but respectful about my family; he doesn't make comments, doesn't share judgements. In the last two months my family has been falling into a downward spiral of criticism, poisonous words and judgements. Derek has consistently been a good friend and endlessly supportive. Everyone else has been a bunch of assholes honestly. I don't know how many times I have to hear, "I pray every day that God sends you a good man who knows how to respect you and understand you and love you." Um... okay but then shut your mouth and trust me when I tell you I think he already did.
"I just don't want you to get hurt."
Everyone has said this to me. The ironic thing is most of the people saying this are constantly hurting me. My family has waged a full on war against my self esteem and self worth. I left something at my parents, so I stopped by earlier to get it. I had about the most poisonous 6 minute conversations in my life and everyone's voice was pretty relaxed. My mother tried to asked me how life was going. I said okay. "Just okay?" I pretended to get distracted by something and walked away. When I came back to say goodbye she started talking immediately about my brother (who even though they're buying him a car he's being picky and making requests). I stood silently waiting for her to be done. My dad interrupted and started complaining as well and saying stuff like, "If they want to be adults and live their own lives then they have to stop coming back trying to get Mami and Papi to pay for everything." I nodded.
"Why are you nodding?" my mother asked.
"Because I agree."
"You do it too, everyone does, everyone comes here so we can solve their problems including you so I don't know why you're nodding."
"Because I agree. I don't plan on coming here to ask for help with my problems anymore."
"Oh, good. I'll believe it when I see it."
"What's your deal? We're all evil and ruining your life?"
"No, just for people who are so concerned with my safety and sanity you're extremely cruel. Jr got in my face arguing yesterday because I said no to him and then asked me to use my car today. I feel like no one respects me and that needs to change so I have to change. That means not depending on people who hurt me."
"Whatever! I've seen you in arguments Tania, you can play innocent but you have a terrible temper and probably started it. You can be extremely disrespectful and have disrespected even me."
"So now you were there during the argument?" I laughed, "I didn't start it but thanks for letting me know what you think. I have been doing nothing but trying to be a good person and live my life and make my dreams come true. I don't pick fights, I'm not that person anymore. I defend myself when I feel attacked and disrespect when disrespected. I don't want to be that person anymore either."
"So I've disrespected you in the past?"
"...Yeah..." She rolled her eyes.
"Well I'm glad, hopefully you won't let anyone disrespect you ever again so you don't have to come crying back here."
"That's the plan... This has been really helpful. I've been feeling bad about taking a step back and taking a break from everyone but the last 5 minutes have been very reassuring to the fact that I'm making the right decision. You know what? You couldn't ask for a better daughter. I am smart and dedicated and kind and successful. I love and accept everyone. You want plastic surgery, whatever makes you happy! Papi wants hair? Wonderful, you look great! Danny can love whoever he wants and Rudy can have children out of wedlock and Jr can do whatever he wants with his personal life I love and accept all of you. I make ANY decision you guys don't agree with and all of you become venomous abusive individuals who hurt and manipulate until I change my life. This family tears me apart inside. So Yeah... I'm not going to be coming here with my problems anymore. I want people in my life who are kind, respectful, loving and accepting. Until people can stop judging me and just love me for who I am, I'm gonna take a step back and do my own thing for a while."
I'm no longer afraid of them not loving me. I'd rather be who I am, alone, then unhappily being who others coerce me to be with their abusive words and judgmental comments.

In the future will everyone be a vegetarian?
My fifteen-year old daughter informs me that among the high-school crowd on MySpace one of the more popular things to do is to define oneself as a vegetarian (even though there are several people who have defined themselves as such that she knows are definitely not so in real life).
It's also becoming the Thing to Say that: "In the future, everyone will be a vegetarian".
She asked me if I believed this and I said no, some people would probably take to eating vegetarians before they gave up meat entirely.
So - am I wrong? In the future will everyone be a vegetarian, like they are trumpeting on MySpace?

text: ok let me give an example. I'll look at a photo, and it will look good, to me, and then someone will adjust some settings and it will look amazing. Like then the first photo just doesn't look good at all. The question I'm asking is, does it just take time to get that trained eye for spotting problem areas in photos, or is my brain deteriorating beyond the point no return? (I hope it's the former) Danke

In a cat-and-dog household, who is the boss?
DW found this video for me. I laughed and then became more thoughtful about it. It is cute and amusing but it is not too good to have a dog that is a bit fearful of the house cat.
In a cat-and-dog household, who is the boss?
DW found this video for me. I laughed and then became more thoughtful about it. It is cute and amusing but it is not too good to have a dog that is a bit fearful of the house cat.
She would not attack the cat. She's just exuberant and a little dim. She wants to play with the cat, but doesn't understand that she's so much bigger than he is. She gets the one room and goes outside and the cat gets the run of the house. I do like and understand cats more than dogs, so I feel that when the cat gets agitated and runs away, seeing the situation through his eyes is a bit easier. I do try to be fair and only scold her when she was the thing that scared him (as opposed to one of us or one of the many other things he's afraid of
I have a timid tabby cat and alaskan malamute dog (think husky on steroids). They are able to coexist because the dog is kept in one room with a baby gate. The cat can come and go whenever he wants to and sometimes steals some water! Whenever the dog charges the cat, we scold her. These two things help keep the cat safe.
It's so nice to read of a home where the cat isn't a second class citizen to the dog 🙂
Happy Christmas Alyson K
Well done in finding an nice arrangement. Would your husky attack your cat or is just he is too strong and outgoing and might upset your cat? Happy Christmas Alyson.
I think most of the dogs are puppies or puppy-ish and have, probably, experienced a "cat strike" once or twice.
Because of size difference, I think it's necessary for a cat to set his/her boundaries.
They will co-exist in a household once they each "set the rules".
When I had both rescue dogs and cats I made sure they respected each other and none were bullied they can peacefully co-exist if their owner does the job right.
I must say since only having cats my life is easier and I don't have to worry about their safety by separating them from the dogs when I went out to work like I had to.
Cats need to get the upper hand in a household with both species and I was glad to see the ones in this video had done just that. We hear of too many households where the dog rules and chases the cat and takes his food and makes his life a misery.
lols so funnny just goes to show cats always think they boss even to a dog
I agree its quite funny..
Alot of the dogs are puppies – so that makes it a more likely scenario to begin with. When those puppies get older they will be chasing the cats out whatever room they go into – perhaps – which is the more common scenario.
The fact remains one could make a far longer video called "you shall leave cat" – of dogs chasing cats away from whatever they were doing.
I just loved this no scaredy cat there more like scaredy Pooch!
That is funny! The way it was edited is great–those whacks at the end. Maybe the cats saw the dogs punished too many times by their humans? Cats are so observant. lol

New Canaanite makes theater debut
Published 9:33 am, Saturday, August 2, 2014
In high school, many undecided students go through a great deal of pressure as they explore possible career choices. New Canaan's Claire Thompson was no different. When she was 16, she was "desperately trying to find" which career fit her interests.
"That was really hard," she said. "But I finally found something that I was good at, and I enjoyed it at the same time."
The answer was theater.
It all started when the teacher of a mandatory theater class Thompson was taking while a sophomore in high school convinced her to audition for a role in Thorton Wilder's "Our Town." Though she accepted the challenge and was excited to do so, she did not get the role. The rejection did not stop her.
"I didn't get in, but it was such a positive experience," she said. "I thought I had found a new skin that fit me. So I pursued it, I did theater camps, won an alumni prize at high school."
Six years later, Thompson made her professional theater debut in July playing an amazon in "Love in the Wars," an adaptation of Heinrich von Kleist's "Penthesilea" at Bard's SummerScape, an opera, music, theater, dance and film festival at Bard College in New York, where she graduated this spring.
The play, by Booker Prize-winning novelist John Banville, is based on the mythical encounter of Achilles with the Queen of the Amazons.
The 2006 New Canaan Country School graduate, who went to a private high school in Concord, Mass., said she loved her first experience out of college.
"It was amazing working with professionals," she said. "I tried to learn as much as I could. I took that as an opportunity to learn, and see the differences, see how they act."
Thompson said the production, which ran from July 12 to 20, was not only a learning experience, but it was an amusing time.
"There's always a sense of fun in the room, and I'm happy that's going to continue," she said.
Because of "Love in the Wars," Thompson is now in the candidate program of the Actors' Equity Association, the union representing live theater professionals. Most professional theater auditions only accept Equity members.
The year after she was rejected from a role in "Out of Town," she attained the part of Phoebe in Shakespeare's "As You Like It."
Locally, Thompson has worked with the Summer Theatre of New Canaan, where she mentored children in two different programs last year: DramaRamas, a musical theater program for children with special needs, and the Junior Acting Company, a musical performance program just for middle school students.
She said teaching theater is something she "would enjoy greatly," and she's also open to roles on TV or in movies.
"At this point in my career, I'm just casting the net," she said. "I'm not in the position to say no to any opportunity. I'm ready and open to take on this journey."
Her role models are actresses Emily Blunt and Lily Rabe.
Asked what she does not enjoy about theater, Thompson could not name anything.
"There are bad things about theater, but they don't bother me enough for me not to do it," she said. "I try not to channel the negative because that's what I'm supposed to be doing. And I love it."

Carl Frank Szuba, who for more than 30 years headed programs and fund raising for the disabled in Anne Arundel County, died Friday morning of cancer at his home in Riviera Beach. He was 73.
In 1968, Mr. Szuba's youngest son, Robert, was born with Down syndrome. The event propelled Mr. Szuba into projects supporting the mentally and physically disabled for the rest of his life. In that time, he raised more than $100,000 for Providence Center, a special-education school in Arnold, and for the Anne Arundel County Association of Retarded Citizens.
"Sometimes he was like a bull in a china shop, but you had to like him because he was absolutely so dedicated," said Lorraine Sheehan, a Providence Center board member and past president of the Anne Arundel County Association for Retarded Citizens. "I can't tell you how much he raised - not in $100,000 contributions, but a nickel and a dollar at a time."

How much do ride on mowers cost?
Secondhand ride on lawnmowers can be bought from as little as a few hundred pounds from the likes of Ebay and such, however – unless you are very lucky, these are often not a financially sound investment as generally no one gets rid of a perfectly good working ride on lawn mower!
A 'cheap mower' can soon cost hundreds more when you discover it is in need of replacement drive belts, blades and bearings – and that's assuming the engine is in good running order and the gearbox works correctly.....
New ride on lawnmowers cost from a thousand pounds upwards into the tens of thousands for a high specification commercial machine.
For regular cutting of larger or rougher areas, eg paddocks or amenity areas, a 'commercial' specification mower is a must as 'homeowner' grade machines soon wear out or fail when you need them most.
That high purchase cost is before a several hundred pound annual service and the fuel that you will use cutting your lawn, the addition premium on your insurance against the mower being stolen and the building of a shed if you have no where secure to keep the new mower plus the constant risk of it getting stolen...
Are there any other options available?
You MAY find it easier to get a grass care specialist to attend your property to cut your grass regularly.
A contractor will provide their own commercial grade machines and fuel, cut your grass as appropriate and be able to advise on its ongoing care, eg weed control, over seeding etc.
You will have no concerns over security or maintenance of your own ride on lawn mower, no problems such as breakdowns or poor weather when you want to cut the grass.
Most contractors will provide a free quote for regularly cutting your grass, indeed you may find it a more convenient option than buying a new ride on mower!
If you are within 25 miles of Spalding, Lincolnshire and would like a quotation for cutting your grass with a ride on mower – here at South Lincs Grass Care we will happily provide one.
Our compact tractors can be fitted with various attachments, from flail cutting overgrown grass to cylinder gang mowing a fine lawn, we have the attachments and experience to carry out grass maintenance quickly, safely and efficiently. We also have a selection of smaller ride on lawnmowers and pedestrian mowers to suit all kinds of grassed areas.
For a free quotation, simply contact us today – 01775 830250 or email email@example.com
Then compare our price to the purchase and running costs of a several thousand pound ride on lawnmower....

Faughart NS children in
St Brigid's Cross workshop
IT was a case of all hands on deck when children from Faughart national school took part in a workshop at the school to learn the art of making a St Brigid's Cross.
St Brigid's cross-making is a tradition the school has held dear for many years and all students are actively encouraged to participate.
The children's school workshop kick-started a weeklong initiative of cross-making, before St Brigid's Feast Day on 1 February when the crosses are available to buy at the shrine with proceeds going towards the school.
'It's something we enjoy doing every year and the children have a wonderful time learning how to make the crosses,' said Mrs Cumiskey, acting school principal.
'Everyone helps out, even the junior infants. There are a lot of crosses to be made, so the more hands the better.
'We're fortunate that there are so many members of our community who are skilled at making these crosses,' said a spokesperson from the school's Parents Association.
Every year it's a real community effort with rushes being sourced and delivered by the trailer
load to the school by volunteers, where they are sorted, trimmed and prepared for being turned into the beautiful, distinctive crosses.
'It's quite fiddly at first,' a parent admitted, 'but you soon get the hang of it. The children pick it up quiet quickly – we have some terrific cross makers and they're very young!'
There's a huge demand for St Brigid crosses from locals and visitors to the shrine each year, so to keep up with that demand, parents and friends are in the school hall every morning for a whole week, enjoying a cuppa and perfecting the craft, and indeed passing it on to the next generation.
If you've ever wanted to learn how to make St Brigid crosses, or to help out, now is your opportunity as the school is open each morning this week from 9.15am until 12 for demos, and all day Friday 1 February.
'This is an important fundraiser for our school, with the money raised going directly towards the school,' said a school Parents Association spokesperson.
'But we couldn't do it without help from the children, parents and friends in our community, who are dedicated and so happy to give some of their time and help. We're right on the doorstep of where St Brigid was born, so it's an important annual event for us too.'
The Brigid of Faughart Festival will include a night of poetry, story and song at the Oriel Centre at Dundalk Gaol on Saturday 2 February.
This is a new event for the festival this year and boasts an array of singing and poetic talent from around the country. Performers will include locally based singers Sean Bradley and Sophie Coyle. From the Aran Islands comes singer Deirdre Ní Chinnéide, from Kilkenny, poet Frances Cotter, who has many local links and from Donegal and Derry, performance poets Pamela Brown and Connor Kelly, formerly of the Poetry Chicks, who wowed audiences at 2010 Festival with their stunning blend of contemporary poetry and music. Start time is 8pm, tickets costs €15 and are available from Dundalk Tourist Office, or Roisin Cotter 087 136 3224 or book online at www.dolorewhelan.ie/events/brigid-faughart-festival/ - where full festival information and performers profiles are available.
Other activities will include the annual pilgrimage walk to Faughart Shrine and a walk exploring the sacred sites of Faughart.

- Artist: Lady_Eldae
- Description: When San was a baby, the wolf goddess Moro attacked her parents, who were found damaging the forest. San's parents threw her to Moro as a sacrifice to save their own lives. Moro raised San as her own daughter, and in turn, San treats Moro as her mother and Moro's two natural pups as brothers. San's primary concern is protecting the forest and the animals she lives with. San rejects her own humanity and even thinks of herself as a wolf.

Cristiano Ronaldo: Forward Seeing out Contract Is Important News for Real MadridJanuary 15, 2013
Real Madrid, despite being the reigning La Liga champions, are struggling badly this season. In a league which has offered precious little competition to the "big two" of themselves and Barcelona for a decade, they currently languish in third place amid rumours of the manager departing and with big-name stars sitting on the bench.
In amongst all this furore, though, has come a big announcement for the club in the past couple of days—the world's most expensive player, Cristiano Ronaldo, confirming he wants to stay at the club until 2015.
With two-and-a-half years remaining on his contract, the forward could easily have demanded he be sold this coming summer following what is likely to be a season of underachievement, as his resale value would decrease sharply thereafter.
Then again, the teams who would be able to pay the likely £60 million-plus asking price if he were to leave in the summer would leave the Portuguese attacker with extremely limited choices as to his next career move.
The fact remains for Real Madrid that not only is Ronaldo their most marketable athlete and best all-round player, he is also a consistent match-winner for them.
Having eclipsed the one game:one goal ratio for his club since signing for them in 2009, Ronaldo continually proves the best chance of Madrid winning any given game.
In his three-and-a-half years at the club so far he has scored an amazing 128 in 119 top-flight league games; replacing that kind of quality and consistency would be nigh on impossible for the power-brokers at the club.
Madrid are currently 18 points behind leaders Barcelona, surely an insurmountable total to mount a comeback this year, but when 2013-14 kicks off on an even footing they will stand a good chance of success once more simply because of the continued presence of Cristiano Ronaldo.
Even since suffering the disappointment of losing out once more to Leo Messi in the Ballon d'Or for a fourth season running, Ronaldo has hit back since the turn of the year to score five goals in just two games.
In the calendar year's first match, a brace helped overcome Real Zaragoza 4-3. Ronaldo scored two goals, two minutes apart, to send the scoreline from a 2-2 draw to a clear lead for Real, which they eventually held onto.
Soon after he hit a Copa del Rey hat-trick against Celta Vigo, overturning a first leg deficit single-handedly in the process.
Notably, in the only other match Real have played this year—on Saturday against Osasuna, the league's bottom club—the team failed to score. Ronaldo did not play in the game. In fact, Real had only nine shots in the whole game, whereas Ronaldo averages almost eight shots per match by himself this season.
What happens beyond the expiration of his current contract is yet to be determined. Ronaldo will be aged 30 at that point, certainly still in great physical condition given the athletic nature of his body, and capable of playing at the game's highest level for some time longer.
Madrid will certainly not want to lose him for nothing, given that they will have spent approximately £142 million on him by that point (£80 million transfer fee plus his wages estimated at £200k per week), but if the forward has designs on leaving the club it is also unlikely that he will sign a new deal beforehand.
He is a showman, an ego, a machine and a goalscorer.
But most importantly for Real Madrid, he is theirs for another couple of seasons at least.

Where has the summer gone? It is hard to believe that the days are already getting shorter and the evenings cooler (not that it has been too warm this year). Just yesterday we had cranes camped out on the No. 5 fairway. I think it is too early for cranes, they aren't supposed to show up before the end of August first of September. As far as that goes, the robins and swallows have left for the season as well. Short summer, so we better take advantage of what we have left. Hello again and welcome to Bird Homestead Golf Course, located 11.8 miles out Funny River Road.
Today our Funny River Festival Tournament is kicking off the Funny River Festival, an entire weekend of fun. Starting with a 1 p.m. shotgun start, it is a nine-hole scramble. Some silly stuff goes on at this one. Prizes will be great. There is even a car to be given away for the closest to on No. 8. How cool is that? So, if you read this before noon, come on out and play with us.
Men's night once again had to take second place to fishing. Six men showed up and picked teams, two teams of three playing a scramble format. The No. 1 team was Richard Harmon, Jeff Gillman and Roy Bird. Long drive honors went to Roy Bird as well as closest to on No. 6. Paul Zimmerman took closest to on No. 8. It was a beautiful evening for the guys and they all want to tell you to come out on Tuesday evenings at 6 p.m. More information can be obtained by calling 260-GOLF.
The Top of the Hill Gang was pretty skimpy as well, and too bad for those who missed. What a beautiful day it was. Only three played, so they played skins and bingo, bango, bongo. Summer isn't over yet, so come back out and join us for a fun time.
Aug. 11, let me repeat, Aug. 11, the Soroptomist Tournament will be held here at Bird Homestead Golf Course. I have been waiting all year for this one! I belong to a team of women, and this may very well be the year we are going to win this. We have been playing this for four years and have a great time! This is an 18-hole, scramble format. You can pick your own teams as long as you don't have more than one A and B player onboard. Prizes galore! Five hole-in-one prizes, including a car. This has to be the year that someone makes a hole-in-one here. It may as well be you! Remember Aug. 11, registration at 8 a.m., shotgun start at 9 a.m. Food all day long, and a bundle of fun thrown in! Please call early to sign up and if you want carts, call ahead to get one reserved. The number is 260-GOLF, in case you forgot. Give us a call or come out and get some practice in with a round of golf or by hitting some range balls into the pond. It is so much fun being able to put the balls in the water. Any other time, water makes me nervous.
We want to thank everyone who was involved with the Red Cross Tournament held on Saturday. We could not have ordered up a nicer day. A great turnout, great food and the prizes were fantastic. It is so much fun when you know you are helping other people. Just think of the lives you touch by giving. Thank you all again!
Come on out and see what is happening at Funny River.
Sept. 1 is approaching quickly. If you didn't know, we are having a party here. Roy Bird and Shelly Loveland are tying the knot. The reception will be held here in the afternoon. So, mark your calendar and plan on coming out.
So, remember, 11.8 miles out Funny River Road is a quiet, little spot just great for a round of golf. 260-4653. See you on the tee box.

This chapter deals with (1) the background of the study; (2) statement of the problem; (3) purpose of the study; (4) significance of the study; (5) scope and limitation of the study; and (6) definitions of the key terms.
1.1 Background of the Study
Learning text type is one of the main subjects in English lesson for junior high school students. Narrative text is one of text types which must be studied in junior high school, especially designed for graduate competences standard (SKL). Narrative text for reading is not only simply to entertain the students but also needs comprehension to learn and analyze the text. It is included comprehensive reading. The narrative text can be defined as a story that is created in a constructive format that describes a sequence of fictional events. Comprehensive reading can be defined as thinking process to get understanding of a writing. It is not easy for the students to get comprehension in narrative text. Teacher needs to apply the innovative teaching method in order to make them understand easier.
CBC (Competence Based Curriculum) is widely suggested for the teacher to use innovative technique. Technique is the whole of procedure which is implemented by the teacher (Harmer, 2002:78). Innovative means something new and full of creativity. CBC recommends cooperative structure in learning because the concept of basic cooperative structure in Indonesia is to enable the students held the discussion or conference based on the five principle of Indonesian democracy. Besides that, one of the theories underlying in CBC in the implementation of cooperative structure is constructivism. It can be defined as a process of constructing or building new knowledge in the mind concept students through experience (Saefuddin, 2008:168).
Considering constructivist principles show the learners to get new mind concept from the experience and interaction with their fellow students, teachers and families, therefore, teacher should make the students interact with the others by using cooperative structure. Nurhadi (2004:116) states some techniques or cooperative structures widely suggested and employed are:
1. Think-Pair-Share. Students individually think about a question posed by the teacher. They pair up to discuss it and eventually they share it with other pairs, and/or with other groups.
2. Numbered-Heads. Groups of 4–5 students are formed and each is given numbers. The teacher poses a question and the students think of the answer making sure each member gets it. The teacher calls out a number (e.g. 2) and each student numbered 2 is asked to give the answer.
3. Jigsaw. Groups of 4–5 students (home teams) are formed and each group is assigned a part of the material to learn and then to teach to the other members in the group.
A technique or cooperative structure commonly in high school used is jigsaw because it is considered as the efficient way to learn the material in peers (Aronson, 2009). Jigsaw technique is effective and efficient in reading subject especially about narrative text, because it is not necessary for the teacher to explain the whole theory about type of text or narrative. It is enough to explain the social function, then to ask the students to find themselves for further information. Because the material about narrative text has already been served in the students' textbook, therefore, they can read themselves. Besides that, jigsaw is more interactive than traditional method explaining or lecturing in the comprehensive reading activities (Tamah, 2007:2).
The jigsaw design facilitates students' interaction in the class enabling the students to value each other as contributors (Aronson, 2009). The students have already had the capability to get the knowledge and ready to share or contribute the knowledge based on constructivism views. Students can get new knowledge from working together with their friend as a team work. They can share knowledge with others.
The students in conducting interactional process, negotiate meaning is necessary to do concerning interaction process in class or society (Tamah, 2007:5). The interactionist argues that the students can get many input of learning language from the interaction process. The teacher is expected to organize the students in order to form the cooperative group learning. Then, the students can often do interaction with another. They discuss, share, and contribute knowledge each other. As a result, they get a lot of input from their group. The teacher merely facilitates them. Thus, it does not spend lots of time to explain. The students have to read and comprehend narrative text themselves in order to report to other members of the group.
Jigsaw is often done in SMP Kemala Bhayangkari 7 because based on CBC recommendation, the teacher should use an innovative technique. The school is the most favorite private school. It is the best private school in Porong. The school has some academic achievements such as to be second number of champion mathematics Olympiad, and has competed English debate in the regency level. The teacher usually gives assignments about narrative text and uses jigsaw technique. Then, the researcher wants to investigate the students' interaction pattern in this school during jigsaw technique is conducted by the teacher in comprehending reading for narrative text.
It is necessary to investigate the effectiveness of using jigsaw technique in order to know how far jigsaw technique can improve the students ability in narrative text reading.. Based on above explanation, the researcher tries to investigate the effectiveness of using jigsaw technique conducted by the teacher in conducting reading subject in narrative text.
1.2 Statement of the Problem
Jigsaw technique is the efficient way to teach narrative text reading because it can save the teacher's energy and can make the students more comprehend by interacting with other students because the class situation is comfortable. It is important to measure the effectiveness of jigsaw technique.
This research problem can be stated as below:
1 How many percent of the students can improve their reading skill in narrative text?
2 How is the students mean score test due to jigsaw technique ?
3 How many students who get upper average of the score ?
4 How is the score of the ability to teacher apply jigsaw technique?
1.3 Purpose of the Study
Based on the thesis statement, the purpose of the study can be stated as follows :
1 To know the effectiveness of using jigsaw Technique.
2 To the students average score in the test
1.4 Scope and Limitation of the Study
Because this study is limited by time, fund, and facilities, thus, it is restricted as following:
1.4.1 Scope of the Study
To be more specific, this study merely focuses on the teacher application of jigsaw and students score test in order to can measure how big the rule of jigsaw can improve students' reading ability.
1.4.2 Limitation of the Study
This study was conducted in SMP KEMALA BHAYANGKARI 7 PORONG. The limitation of this study is the sample of the study that is the students in the IX-3 class.
1.5 Significance of the Study
This papers hopefully can give contribution to the English teacher about the, In order to the teachers can open their mind about the students' capability to receive input from their interaction with their fellow students, and can share or contribute knowledge each other. As the result, the teacher should give many opportunities to the students in delivering their ideas from their team in discussion. The teacher should be more careful to monitor their students in doing interaction and the teacher can apply the jigsaw technique or group discussion well, effectively, and efficient. The result of this study is expected to make improvement in teaching English, especially in students' cooperative learning and having great a communication skill. This study also is used to inform, other fellow students, students' parent, the headmaster, and librarian in the school to serve more facility, source to study, and share the information each other. Then, the students can build their knowledge themselves and finally they can interact or corporate well in solving the assignment.
1.6 Definitions of the Key Terms
To avoid the misinterpretation, the researcher would define the below key
a. effectiveness refers to whether jigsaw technique can improve successfully the students ability in reading narrative text
b. Jigsaw technique refers to one of cooperative structure that facilitates the students to contribute or share the knowledge each other. It is like a puzzle fit each other.
c. Narrative text refers to a fiction text which involves a setting, a character, a plot, and a conflict.
To fulfill the requirement of the objective the study, the researcher will present four topics which are going to be discussed. These are (1) research design; (2) subject of the study; (3) research instrument; and (4) data analysis. The engagement of the research study, research design describes all of the involvement in the research. Subject of the study is concerning the source of data. Research instrument tells about the documentation, and the last is data analysis explains about the procedure to collect the data and to process them.
3.1 Research Design
The objective of this research is to know the effectiveness of jigsaw technique while it was carrying out by the teacher in conducting comprehensive reading in narrative text. Therefore, this research is proposed to know the improvement of the students' capability in doing communication or interaction with their fellow students to solve the task, and the pattern of interaction they used, which is given by the teacher based on the view of CBC (competence based curriculum) demand.
After jigsaw technique had been introduced as a teaching model in CBC and had been implemented by several cycles, the English teacher was recognizable, and the students could do well in jigsaw technique and can improve students ability, for example: to carry out interaction process. And the result is the students can do well in jigsaw technique such as discussion, sharing, and giving contribution knowledge each other. Thus, this study merely presented information concerning classroom interaction in jigsaw class. This study is descriptive quantitative. The quantitative research design is descriptive in that the researcher is interested in process, meaning and understanding gained through numeric data or number. The researcher expects to use descriptive quantitative study in order to get many precise data as soon as possible.
3.2 population and sample of the Study
The sample of this study was taken from the third grade students of SMP KEMALA BHAYANGKARI 7 PORONG, academic year of 2009/2010 of IX-3 class. because the students in IX-3 class after the researcher randomly select the loiter the IX-3 class were chosen .
There were forty six students involved in this study in each class. They were assigned to collect a friend to form a home group randomly. After they had formed a home group, each group consisted of six or seven students, the teacher gave the material about narrative text for each student in diverse segment. They had to scatter to form a new expert group which is appropriate their segment to be discussed.
The students were working the segment which has already given in their expert groups formed in the treatment of the jigsaw class. In each expert group, one expert group consisting of six students or seven was chosen from the expert groups formed altogether. There were seven expert groups from IX-3 class of SMP Kemala Bhayangkari 7. Exactly, the samples were students forty six students.
3.3 Research Instrument
To obtain the data, the researcher should use research instruments which were related to statement of the problem and relevant. The research instrument in this study is documentation.
3.3.1 Observation
The observational method is the primary technique for collecting data on nonverbal behavior. It deals with visual data collection. There are two chief type of observation; they are participant (a regular participant in the activity being observed) and non participant (dual role is generally not known to other participants. The researcher try to observe the teacher behavior when the teacher apply jigsaw technique, therefore the researcher can evaluate the use and the efficient of jigsaw technique. The major steps in observation are; decide upon the goal of the study, decide upon the group of subject to be observed, gain entry to the group ( or in case of laboratory observation, arrange to have the subjects enter the laboratory), gain rapport with the subject being studied, conduct the study by observing and recording field notes over a period of weeks, months or even years, deal with crisis that occur, such as confrontation with subjects who think you are some sort of spy, exit from the observational study, analyses data, and write a rapport presenting the finding. Because this research is quantitative, the researcher should use structure format in checklist form in order to get numeric data.
3.3.2 Questionnaire
The questionnaire is a widely used and useful instrument for collecting survey information, providing structured, often numerical data, being able to be administered without the presence of the researcher, and often being comparatively straightforward to analyze There are several kinds of question and response modes in questionnaires, including, for example: dichotomous questions; multiple choice questions; rating scales; and open-ended questions. Questionnaires are categorized into two types: Structured: It has a fixed number of questions and a limited choice of answers. The respondents should choose one or more suitable answers. The aim of administering this questionnaire is to get facts. Unstructured: It consists a number of questions. The answers are in the form of essay and the content may vary depending on the respondents. The aim of administering this questionnaire is to explore something. Open-ended questions are questions in which responds categories are not specified, and fixed alternative or closed-ended questions are questions in which the respondents select one or more of the specific categories provided by the researcher Questionnaire will be delivered for the student whether their ability in reading narrative text improve or not. In this research use multiple choice questionnaires in order to students can easily answer the question and get numeric data
For getting numeric data the researcher use this formula :
N x 100
F = the number of students who answered can improve the ability
N = the total number of students
Therefore we can make the percentage between how many percent that the student can improve their ability in narrative text reading and students can not improve.
3.3.3 Test
In tests, researchers have at their disposal a powerful method of data collection, an impressive array of tests for gathering data of a numerical rather than verbal kind. Test the conduct to measure the ability student before jigsaw had yet implemented and after jigsaw implement. For the validity and reliability we can correlate the student post test and pretest. To measure students' test
we could use the following formula:
N x 100
A = the number of students who answered the item correctly
N = the total number of students who attempted the item
3.4 Data collection and Analysis
In this section, it is classified into two section (1) Data Collection; (2) Data Analysis.
3.4.1 Data Collection
The data collection about the effectiveness of using jigsaw technique which was conducted by the teacher in reading comprehensive narrative text class by using observation, questionnaire, and tesr, it were collected from 20 November 2009 until the end of the month.
3.4.2 Data Analysis
The obtained data from all of mentioned instrument above was calculated analyzed and interpreted based on the effectiveness of jigsaw technique theory as explained previously in the chapter two. The findings were used to answer the research question. First of all the data were calculated. The calculated data was then analyzed to find out the effectiveness of using jigsaw technique. Then, the analyzed data was made a conclusion.

A musical had not won Best Picture, or been a major contender for it, in a long schedule. But "Chicago" brought the musical in order to Oscar gold with toe tapping numbers, and the satirical spirit of it's creator, the late Bob Fosse. Catherine Zeta-Jones also took home some Oscar jazz, Renee Zellweger and Richard Gere surprised some using musical talent, and Queen Latifah and John E. Reilly each nearly stole the show with one big code. However, some wondered if director Rob Marshall used too much trickery additional medications the actors dance much better they really could.
With Lost ending since Flashforward began, it was billed becoming "the next Lost", which set it up to fail before it had even hit our screens.

Ten Ton Hammer has posted part 1 of their great Q&A with the folks at Pure West Documentaries, the company behind Second Skin. What is Second Skin? A documentary film about us... the players of the very subject matter you come to Massively to read about. It's a film that tells the tale of real-life players - your co-workers, your wife, boss, or even the girl next door - living within the virtual worlds of MMOs as someone - or some thing - else.
The interview asks a lot of very interesting questions and is absolutely worth the time to read. The film has been in the making for two years and was just recently finished. It's due to make it's debut at the South by Southwest Film Festival in March 2008. This is not a shockumentary or a slam film. The guys at Pure West are, like us, gamers who set out to put together a film that walks the tight rope between showing both the negative (of which we hear about all too often) and positive (which we hardly ever hear about) sides of this growing phenomena.
Peter Schieffelin Brauer, producer of the film says: Certainly we hear a lot about the negative aspects. But I think one thing we found was really important was to really give both sides a voice. Of course, I'm a gamer, I care about the gamer's voice a lot more, but if I don't come out and acknowledge the other side, no one's going to listen to me.
This statement in and of itself speaks to the legitimacy of the filmmakers. I know I'll be buying a ticket when this film hits my local metroplex.

Standard minimum guarantee & transparency will help the music royalty issue: Rachna Kanwar
Planetradiocity has been a pioneer in the web radio space. Beginning operations in 2008, Planetradiocity has continued to add to new channels catering to international, Bollywood, indie, and regional audiences. At the helm is Rachna Kanwar, Business Head, Digital Media & New Business at Radio City. A veteran digital specialist, she has spent over 19 years in the media & entertainment industry with multi-dimensional experience across radio, TV, documentary films and Internet.
Kanwar had worked with Bennett Coleman & Co (Times FM, Times Internet) prior to joining Radio City. In conversation with exchange4media, Kanwar speaks about Planetradiocity, the business potential, the music loyalty quandary, among other things. Excerpts.
You have launched two new stations on Planetradiocity targeting regional audiences—Radio City Malayalam and Radio City Tamil. How do you maintain balance between genre-focused channels and language-focused channels and what is the reasoning behind new launches?
There are essentially two types of stations—genre-based and language-based. One sprouts from the terrestrial stations that we operate. So there is Radio City Hindi, which is like the language of choice for Radio City too. If you see, there is no terrestrial radio station broadcasting in Malayalam. Through Planetradiocity we are also entering places where terrestrially we are not present. We do extensive research to identify the need gap and understand what the listeners want. Then we also take a look at what is already available in these areas.
How do you maintain synergies between the web and terrestrial arms of Radio City?
There are lots of ways to maintain synergies. For example, we have a lot of Radio City listeners who might have moved out of their city but would still have good memories of Radio City, so we try to bring them that local flavour, they are used to. We also try to retain a lot of programming from terrestrial radio on web radio, in terms of our some of our shows, like Love Guru, that are very popular on the terrestrial channels. The other way is in terms of activities or the big properties we have, which also have digital integrations.
Music royalty has been an issue for both web and terrestrial radio. The situation with terrestrial radio seems to have reached some kind of a resolution, as have similar stalemates among Internet radio operators and music labels in countries like the US. What is the situation in India?
The situation is still in status quo. In fact, it has worsened for us in the last couple of years. Earlier, the licenses were handled by one association; Phonographics Performance Limited (PPL), but since the last year and a half, we have to approach each individual music label to negotiate music licenses and royalties. This becomes very difficult for us. Also, there is no standard minimum guarantee. Everyone has their own logic and their own structure, which changes every year. These are some of the difficulties. However, this year we have seen that a lot of people in the music industry also seem keen to resolve this issue.
Would reverting to having a single agency/industry body solve the issue?
I cannot speak for them (music labels). There was PPL earlier, before they ended their ties with them. I am sure there must have been some reason behind them keeping digital licenses with themselves. What will help us is a standard minimum guarantee and some transparency.
So, according to you, what is the ideal solution?
Even the US went through a similar cycle. It is the same case with us and I believe we are nearing the end of the cycle. Both the parties (operators and music labels) have to make business sense and understand and agree on this. How this happens is something that I cannot decide as an individual. It can only happen if we meet and discuss it together.
Planetradiocity has been in operation for a long time. In terms of business and monetization, how has the response been from advertisers?
This year we are focusing a lot on evangelizing the medium by reaching out to a lot of people and make them understand what the product is. There are a number of offerings in terms of music available in the market. For example, you have playlists, which are not very interactive but when you talk about web radio, it is an interactive medium. There are a lot of ways in which client messaging can be fit in. So when you have all these options you really need to make clients understand the potential of the medium.
To come back to your question, it has been a slow ride, but what has been heartening to see last year is that though the actual figure (revenue) may not have grown so much, the number of clients has grown. Even from smaller cities, the number of brand wanting to experiment has increased.
Your revenue model depends on advertising but is subscription an option you are exploring?
At the moment we are not but we would want to experiment with it later this year. We have it on our mind.
With a new government in place, a lot has been discussed about what expectations the radio industry has. From the perspective of an internet radio operator, what are some of the things you would like to see change that will make your life easier?
I would say we have to recognize that web radio is also radio. Right now it is sort of a grey area and nobody really seems to be clear on where to put it. By doing this all the policies and decisions taken in terms of music licensing, to begin with it, would become clearer and it would really help sort out this issue.
The Phase III migration will open up the private FM industry for more expansion. What does it mean for internet radio?
It will be great for the radio industry per se and as part of the industry of course we will benefit from it. At this point, I cannot talk about how we will benefit. Our expansion and our growth is in many ways independent from Radio City (terrestrial channels) but as radio expands to smaller cities, we will definitely grow too.
You spoke about the need for evangelism earlier. How is Planetradiocity approaching it?
We have two target groups. One is, of course, our listeners who we reach out to through our marketing campaigns. We have been making a lot of efforts and the numbers suggest that people are enjoying what we are doing. We are doing a lot of visibility campaigns as well. The stress is going to be on how and why web radio is different from all the other music available on the web. The other target is of course our clients. We get them to experience what the product is like. Apart from making revenue we want them to understand the product.
So what is in store for Planetradiocity this year?
We will be expanding in both areas (genre and language) this year and going forward. On the web side, we are exploring Marathi and Kannada language stations. In terms of genre-focused channels, we want to expand our Bollywood offering. We will also be launching more stations under the devotional genre. In fact, we are also looking at expanding this particular genre by partnering with people and bringing out talk shows, etc.
What are the plans for the mobile platform?
We are making our website mobile and tablet optimized. We already have three of our channels available for mobile devices—Radio City Freedom, Radio City Malayalam and Radio City Smaran. We are also in talks with music labels for mobile licenses so we can start launching our other channels on mobile devices too.
