The Army.
The Poll Mall Gazette gives the following particulars respecting the nationality of the troops stationed in Ireland, which will be of interest at the present moment; —" Nothing strikes one so much as the strange difference between the position of the various battalions according as they fall under the heads of English, Scotch, or Irish localised regiments. Of the English battalions, there are 46 at home and 63 on foreign service; of the Scotch battalions, three at home and 13 on foreign service; and of the Irish battalions, seven at home and nine on foreign service. At first the student strange to English customs might be inclined to compliment the Irish battalians on their good luck in having more than half their number at home, and ' localised.' But a further analysis ot the figures would rather surprise him. Out of the 46 English battalions on home service no fewer than 18 are in Ireland, while the Irish battalions have in their own country only one solitary example —namely, the 104th at Dublin. And if he turns to the 104th Regiment, in another part of the Army List, he will find that it is in reality the Bengal Fusiliers. Not one of the regiments specially known as Irish and localised in Ireland is present in its own country, much less its own district. The Scotch regiments, on the other hand, have only three battalions at home; but two of them are quartered in Scotland, the third being in camp at Aldershot. There is no English or Irish Battalion in Scotland, which is therefore entirely garrisoned by its own people; while there is no purely Irish battalion in Ireland, nor any Scotch, the whole force there being English."

It was Toby's turn to spend the night at the grandparents' house. He and Grandpa Glen ate pizza and watched Tin Tin Friday night, but on Saturday morning it was on to chores.
Grandpa came into the house where I was cleaning and told me to grab my camera because Toby was going to mow the grass for the first time ever!
First he would need to start the mower.
Then he would have to push hard.
Grandpa stepped in to provide a bit of guidance.
Looking good Toby.
This was my final picture, but he finished it all up.
Then it was on to the back where he was put in charge of fishing out the bougainvillea petals from the pool.
That's one handsome little helper.
There were many petals. He filled that big flower pot.
Looking good Toby. You are welcome back anytime.

NEW MARTINSVILLE - In the build-up to Friday night's Shadyside-Magnolia game the clash was often referred to a small-school showdown. What fans ultimately witnessed at Alumni Field inside Bill Stewart Memorial Stadium was big-boy, old-school football.
Pads were cracking violently from the first play to the last, and the winning point came off the right foot of a straight-ahead kicker, for some harkening back to the days of yesteryear.
Sam Merryman's PAT tumbled through the uprights in the second overtime to give the Tigers (3-0) a 14-13 victory against the Blue Eagles (2-1) in a game that lived up to every bit of its hype.

It was a little bit of redemption for Merryman, who had a potentially winning, 59-yard touchdown catch called back by an infraction with 2:32 remaining in a 7-7 deadlock.
"Sometimes the ball comes off his foot the wrong way, but that time it came off the right way and that's all I have to say for that young man," Shadyside coach Mark Holenka said. "The man upstairs works in strange ways and helped that ball come straight at the end.
"Mistakes hurt both teams but our defense held tough."
After each squad was thwarted in the first overtime - a Dakota Litton interception for Magnolia and a Dylan Hanson fumble recovery for Shadyside - they both found the end zone in the second extra session.
The Blue Eagles got the ball first and it took two Hunter Partridge runs that gained 24 yards to place the ball at the 1.
Quarterback Patrick Mirandy sneaked in from there, but the extra point was wide right leaving Magnolia with a 13-7 advantage.
Starting at the 25, the Tigers moved backward with a run for no gain on first down and a 5-yard penalty. Eventually, a pass on third-and-10 from Anthony Coggins to Connor Banco came up 3 yards short.
However, Magnolia was flagged for roughing the quarterback, giving Shadyside a first down on the 7.
"We played pretty darn good to the very end there," Blue Eagles coach Dave Chapman said. "I didn't have much to say after the game (because) we played our butts off.
"You hate to see it come down the way it came down if you're on the wrong side of it."
Alex Krupa picked up 2 on first down before Banco bulled his way into the end zone from the 5 to tie the game at 13-13. Following a timeout, Merryman split the uprights and Shadyside's players and coaches rushed the field in celebration.
"Nobody lost the game and that is what I told 'Doc'," Holenka said. "After our scrimmage at Buckeye Trail when I didn't think we competed, we've been hitting hard.
"(The kids) were motivated in that second overtime, but to be honest, the penalty bailed us out.
"We'll take it, but I know how they feel."
The Tigers looked as though they were going to put a nail in the coffin late as Krupa took a pitch, stopped and fired to an open Austin Price who gained 40 yards to the Eagles 10 with 31.7 seconds remaining. Following a spike Shadyside went to the air, but Mirandy was there for his second interception - the fourth overall by Magnolia.
Neither team was able to get much going offensively.
Magnolia was limited 193 total yards, compared to 258 by Shadyside.
The only first-half scores came on a 23-yard pass from Mirandy to Brooks Parsons at 9:18 of the first, and a 10-yard Coggins-to-Krupa hookup that ended on a diving catch in the back of the end zone with 5:56 left in the half.
On Magnolia's first drive of the second half, it moved 57 yards in 15 plays, eating up more than 9 minutes. Partridge carried it 13 times on the march, which ended on downs at the Shadyside 11.
The Blue Eagles had a chance to go ahead with 4:17 left but a 25-yard field-goal attempt just went wide left. "This one is going to sting for a while," Chapman said. "It was old-fashioned, smash-mouth football."It's a tough road to haul, but we'll be OK. They are high-school kids and they're resilient."
The Tigers' rough-and-tumble running tandem of Krupa (21 carries, 70 yards) and Banco (9-44-td) were limited to 114 yards rushing by a hard-hitting Magnolia defense.
Hunter Partridge, the Blue Eagles' senior first-year starting running back who rushed for 360 yards last week, gained another 143. But it took him 37 carries to do so as he was constantly punished by a gang of Shadyside tacklers.
Leo Herrick led the big Blue with 15 tackles, while Jared Barrows added and even dozen, with four of the tackles went for loss of yardage, James Stillwagner also dropped a dozen Shadyside ball carriers, registered the only quarterback sack. Sebastian Stickler made 10 tackles, while Mirandy and Dakota Litton each picked of two Tiger passes
It doesn't get any easier for Magnolia, as they will host the River Pilots Thursday, Sept. 14 with kick-off scheduled at 7 p.m. at Alumni Field in the Bill Stewart Memorial Stadium.

Treasure has some new paw pals that need some help. They have been overlooked because they are a bit different, like her, but they are great puppies looking for loving, committed forever homes. Maybe you are looking for a new family member, or maybe you know someone who is. Please take the time to read about these adorable double merle puppies, and visit their Petfinder pages. Let's help find them the homes they deserve!
This is Crystal. She's four months old and loves to play and rough house with her siblings. She enjoys playing with people too and has a lot of energy! Crystal has vision in one eye and hearing in one ear. She needs a family to give her a chance to shine! Crystal has already been crate trained and is receiving early socialization and handling, so she can fit right into her new home! She sounds like she could be a lot of fun! For more information about Crystal and to find contact information, here is her Petfinder page http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/21883053?rvp=1
Tell them Treasure sent you!
This is Snow. She's also four months old (these three puppies are all littermates!). Snow is white, just like Treasure! And, if you recall, Treasure's name used to be Snowy! This girl really needs some help finding the perfect home. Unlike her brother and sister, who both have partial hearing and sight, Snow is totally deaf and has limited vision in both eyes. She may require some more adapted training techniques such as what you've read about here on my blog. But you only have to read about Treasure's (blind and deaf) and Jasmine's (deaf and partially blind) escapades, to know that Snow will greatly enrich someone's life. Snow enjoys playing and cuddling and is more laid back than her siblings. She is crate trained and is being socialized and handled often so she can make a smooth transition into a new and loving home. Visit Snow's Petfinder page to learn more about her and how you can make her a member of your family! http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/21883072
Frost is the boy of the group, also four months old. He has hearing in one ear, good vision in one eye, and has some vision in the other eye. Frost has a lot of energy and is a busy sheltie boy. He likes to play more than he's a cuddle bug. He's happy and healthy and ready to go, go, go! Could he be the dog for you? Frost is also crate trained and is being socialized and handled frequently. He has very pretty markings, too! He would like an active home all his own! Check out his Petfinder page for more information and to find out how to apply to adopt him! http://www.petfinder.com/petdetail/21882987

Lollapalooza 2017 – Frankie's Snapchat Highlight Reel
This year we took Lollapalooza by storm with our festival expert Frankie Greek. Snapchat artist interviews, backstage access, and some good old GA fun made for the most amazing four days in Chicago. With Frankie taking over our Snapchat, viewers got an inside look into many aspects of the festival and got to catch snippets of many awesome performances.
Watch the video below for highlights of our Snapchat from the four days of Lolla:
We got to hang at the Front Gate Ticket Lounge and learn all about their awesome RFID technology. RFID, or Radio Frequency Identification, allows you to easily scan into the festival by simply swiping your wristband through a little portal.
Front Gate has also created RFID photo booths which will immediately send your pics or GIFs to your email with an easy wristband swipe. It's science!
Some memorable sets included Wiz Khalifa, Big Sean, Arcade Fire, and of course Chicago's beloved Chance the Rapper. We even got some unreal backstage access during NGHTMRE's set at Perry's stage!
And talking with the artists was just as fun. Our quick Snapchat interviews allowed for some hilarious on the spot answers from Andrew McMahon, A R I Z O N A, Caitlyn Smith, Barns Courtney and Tucker Beathard.
Lolla was a blast without a doubt–we can't wait to go back next year! Big thanks to our girl Frankie for being the #1 Lolla festival guide and everyone who tuned in throughout the festival.

People often receive calls from individuals who hide their identity. They usually have no idea who is contacting them. When this happens, a person will try to redial the number from the caller ID; but the caller's information can be blocked. In some cases, people are too afraid to call the number back. In the past, people had landline phones and could use a reverse phone lookup service to discover unknown callers.
So, what is a reverse phone lookup?
calleridinfo does not have every listed number that is available within society; but the site is slowly building itself up to obtain that information. The site also provides callers with up to date news, forums to discuss various topics, articles to keep people informed and important videos that will explain how to use reverse phone lookup technology. calleridinfo is a practical service that will greatly assist people with discovering who is calling them. privacy policy and contact details

Eight Events Leading to Confederation
Concept(s) Historical Significance
Exemplary example of Historical Significance
Prepared for Grade(s) 7
Province AB
By shirley coughlan
Time Period(s) 1700-1800, 1800-1900
Time allotment Eight x sixty minute classes
Brief Description of the Task
Funding and support for the development of this lesson plan is the result of a grant from Alberta Education to support implementation of the K-12 Social Studies curriculum. Financial and in-kind support was also provided by the Calgary Regional Consortium (www.crcpd.ab.ca).
In this unit, students first work in small groups to examine 16 event cards outlining significant moments in Canadian history from 1755-1845. Using criteria for historical significance, students rate each of the 16 events. They then choose eight events they consider to be the most historically significant. Each group then uses a 'significance grid' to construct a chronological timeline of these eight events. Included in the timeline is a picture of the event and a justification as to why they deem the event to be historically significant.
Students then work individually to judge which event they personally consider to be the most historically significant. Based on their chosen event, each student designs a cover for an issue of "The Beaver" magazine and then writes an editor's note to explain the historical significance of the event.
Required Knowledge & Skills
1. Familiarity with the notion of historical significance (See The Historical Thinking Project website at www.historicalthinking.ca/concepts).
2. Familiarity with the "The Beaver" magazine (http://www.historysociety.ca/bea.asp).
3. Awareness of the various aspects of editorial writing (See the Alberta Social Studies Online Guide to Implementation for support materials to help students write an effective editorial: http://www.learnalberta.ca/content/sssm/html/writinganeffectiveeditorial...).
Detailed Instructions
Part A (Group project)
1. Begin the unit by asking students to list the three most significant events in their life. After students have listed these events on a piece of paper, ask them what made these events so significant. Using a mind map with significance at the centre, track student responses on the board (i.e. had a big effect on my life, was a major achievement for me). Once students have had a chance to respond, introduce the criteria for historical significance:
Resulted in change
– The event had deep consequences for many people
– The event affected many people
– The consequences of this event lasted for a long period of time
Revealing: The event sheds light on an aspect of the past; helps us understand the past in a new way
Help students see connections between the reasons why they chose particular events as significant in their own life with criteria for historical significance. You may wish to visit The Historical Thinking Project website for strategies to help students make these connections and better understand the concept of historical significance (www.historicalthinking.ca).
Explain that the purpose of this unit is to help students understand some of the tools historians use to decide which events in the past should be seen as historically significant. Clarify to students that the past is everything that ever happened to anyone anywhere. There is too much that has happened in the past to remember it all. Therefore, historians must choose which events, people, and developments are worth remembering. This is where historical significance comes in; these criteria help us decide which events are the most important.
2. Announce that you are going to present them with sixteen events that occurred before Confederation — the time when Canada became an independent country from Britain. As Canadian historians, their job is to determine the historical significance of these events as they relate to Confederation.
To prepare students for this task, select one of the events to work on together as a class. Using the expulsion of the Acadians in 1775 as an example, together with the students complete ATT 1 - Criteria for Historical Significance sheet. (Information about the Acadian expulsion can be found in the 16 Event Cards.)
Begin by asking students to read the card. On the board (or on an overhead projector) create a model template of the Criteria for Historical Significance sheet. Go over each criteria one by one — event had deep consequences, affected many people, consequences of the event lasted for a long period of time) — and ask students what evidence there is from the historical event card that would help them to decide to what extent this event fits the criteria for historical significance. Fill in the chart on the board with student responses.
Once completed, ask students what evidence may be lacking to determine historical significance. Ask students to come up with a series of inquiry questions that will guide them in finding this information (i.e. How many people were deported, how many people died during the deportation process, how did the character of the Maritimes change as a result of the Acadians being deported, what were some of the long term consequences of this event). Direct students to their textbook and any other resources you are able to provide to help them answer these questions. When students have found the information, ask them to rate the event in terms of its historical significance. Finish the practice example by offering some of your thoughts as to what degree this event fits the criteria for historical evidence.
3. Distribute sets of the 16 Historical Events cards to groups of three or four students (see ATT 2 - 16 Historical Events cards. Direct students to use the information on the cards to complete the "Criteria for Historical Significance" sheet for each event (16). Using the three criteria of historical significance, review how to rank the events on a scale from -2 to +2. Direct students to generate inquiry questions in order to find information they will needed to properly determine historical significance. If possible, co-ordinate time in the library where students will have access to computers to find the relevant information online as well as in other print resources. Have students divide up the events so that each member has an equal number of events to research for the group.
Once students have found the information they need to determine historical significance, have students rank order each event on the historical significance scale. When students complete this task they can then use their rankings to determine which eight events were the most historically significant. As this point, ask each group to orally present their conclusions. Have each group choose one event to use as an example of using criteria to determine historical significance. Ensure that students keep their sheets because they will need it for the next activity.
4. Teach/review the remaining seven events from the Program of Studies including the: Battle on the Plains of Abraham, Royal Proclamation, Quebec Act, Rebellion in the 13 Colonies, War of 1812, Great Migration and Act of Union (This information can be found in Voices and Visions: Chapters 5 & 6; Our Canada: Chapters 5-7).
5. Based on the new knowledge they have gained in learning about these seven events, ask students to re-evaluate their original choices. Once they have done this, explain to students that you would now like them to make a timeline that includes the eight events they have determined to be the most historically significant. On the x axis of the timeline have students plot four distinct lines, labeling them from bottom to top: 0, +2, +4, +6. Have students plot their events chronologically corresponding to the ranking they gave the event for historical significance. For each event have students include a picture and a brief explanation as to why they consider the event to be historically significant. Remind students that their explanation must be based on the criteria for historical significance. For an example see sample of student work (number 3) included with this lesson plan.
Part B (Individual project)
Activity 1: Design a magazine cover.
Share with students copies of "The Beaver" magazine (digital copies can be found on the website: http://www.historysociety.ca/bea.asp). As a class, examine and discuss the features and various elements included on the cover. Explain to students that they will create their own magazine cover, featuring the pre-Confederation event they believe to be the most historically significant. Review ATT 3 - "The Beaver" student information, and ATT 4 - Magazine cover rubric and discuss the expectations for this task.
Explain that the cover will need to contain the following elements:
– Name of the magazine (The Beaver: Canada's History Magazine)
– Headline for the feature article, (the event they personally select
as most historically significant) and a brief description of this event that will catch the reader's attention
– Reference to the seven other events that would be included in the magazine if an entire magazine were being produced (these might simply take the form of seven catchy headlines)
– Pictures with accompanying captions that will capture the reader's interest
You may wish students to design the cover using any appropriate desk top publishing program.
Activity 2: One-page article.
Students will write a full-page article in the form of an editorial that explains why the event they chose is the most historically significant event during this period of Canada' s past, using the criteria of historical significance
To help students write an effective editorial discuss the criteria and format of writing an opinion piece. To help students write an editorial that communicates a clear statement of purpose and presents convincing arguments in support of their position, visit the following link on the
Online Guide to Implementation for support materials: http://www.learnalberta.ca/content/sssm/html/writinganeffectiveeditorial...).
Help students organize their editorial using ATT 5 - Opinion piece planning sheet. Once they have worked through this process, direct them to write an editorial article based on the event they chose as the most historically significant.
Grade 7 Social Studies textbooks: "Voices and Visions" (Oxford Press); "Our Canada" (Nelson)
Historical Thinking:
1. Students will be able to identify and apply the criteria for historical significance (i.e. event had deep consequences for many people over a long period of time; revealing) to events leading to Confederation.
2. Using criteria for historical significance, students will be able to rank order the degree to which particular events leading to Confederation were historically significant.
3. Based on criteria for historical significance, students will be able to justify which event they consider to be the "most significant."

Samsung Unveiled Nine New Products at its Press Conference in London
Samsung showcased nine new products at its press conference in London. The products displayed at the media event are three new Galaxy S4 variant smartphones: Galaxy S4 Mini, Galaxy S4 Active, Galaxy S4 Zoom, an android-powered mirrorless camera: Galaxy NX, two new Ativ tablets: Ativ Q and Ativ Tab 3, two Ativ notebooks: Ativ Book 9 Plus an Ativ Book 9 Lite and a desktop-style computer: Ativ One 5 Style.
Three new Galaxy S smartphones
The Galaxy S4 Active is a tougher version of the Galaxy S4. It is fully dust and water resistant and able to survive in a meter of water for 30 minutes without sustaining damage. It features a five-inch display, quad-core processor Snapdragon 600 clocked at 1.9GHz, 2GB of RAM, 2,600 mAh battery, a TFT 1080p display and an eight megapixel camera.
The Galaxy S4 Mini is a smaller Galaxy S4 with no compromises. It features a 4.3-inch qHD Super AMOLED display, a 1.7GHz dual core processor, 2GB of RAM and 8MP camera. It will have a low price than Galaxy S4, since it's only qHD.
The Galaxy S4 Zoom is the world's first smartphone with a 10x optical zoom lens. The phone will also have an optical image stabilizer to take less shaky shots and performs well in low light performance. And the sensor itself is a backside illuminated 16MP sensor paired with a real xenon flash.
Android-powered mirrorless camera
The Galaxy NX, a new Android-powered mirrorless camera that runs Google's mobile OS (version 4.2.2 Jelly Bean) and bears LTE radios. It is an interchangeable-lens Compact System Camera, featuring a 20.3-megapixel APS-C sensor as well as 3G/4G LTE, WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 connectivity. The Galaxy NX also packs a large 4.8-inch HD LCD display on its rear and is powered by a 1.6GHz Pega-Q quad-core setup and separate DRIMe IV Signal processor for imaging. It also incorporates a hybrid AF, culled from the best of DSLRs and compacts, with a shutter speed of 1/6, 000th of a second and 8.6fps shooting.
Two new Ativ tablets
Ativ Q: A "four-in-one" convertible tablet that can change between table and laptop forms and runs both Android 4.2.2 and Windows 8 operating system. It features a 13.3-inch, 3,200 by 1,800-pixel resolution display and Intel i5 Haswell processor. It has a hinge design which allows it to change into four different forms: a flat tablet mode, a laptop mode, an angled display or floating display when you flip the display.
The Ativ Tab 3, described as the world's thinnest tablet is just 8.2-millimeters thick. It singularly powered by Windows 8. It has a 10.1-inch display with a 1,366 by 768 resolution, weighs 550 grams. The tablet uses an Intel Atom processor and has 2GB of memory and 64GB of storage.
Two new Ativ notebooks
The Ativ Book 9 Plus, which is the successor to its Series 9 line of laptops, comes with a 13-inch display with 3,200 x 1,800-pixel resolution. It has up to 8GB of memory and 256GB of storage and is powered by a Haswell processor. Its battery lasts up to 12 hours and boots within seconds. As said by Samsung, the Ativ Book 9 Plus boots up in six seconds and wakes up from sleep mode in one second.
The Ativ Book 9 Lite, the budget-friendlier equivalent of Ativ Book 9 Plus, will also have a 13-inch display. Different from the Plus, the Lite version will have a touch screen as an option. It will use a solid-state drive for storage and a Samsung-specific quad-core processor and will come with a maximum of 4GB of memory and 256GB of storage.
One new Ativ desktop
Finally, the desktop computer unveiled by Samsung is called Ativ One 5 style. And it is an all-in-one computer expected to compete against Apple's iMac or other fully integrated computers. It has a 21.5-inch touch-screen display with 1,290 x 1,080 resolution, 4GB of memory, up to 1 terabyte of storage and a quad-core AMD processor.

It seems impossible that a good friend of mine could be going to the school next door to me and also be in her first year of an MSW program, and somehow it still took us 5 months to see each other and catch up, but that is indeed the case.
Tonight, after 5 months of phone tag and nerdy-ness that kept us from having social lives, we managed to get together and do dinner AND dessert.
All I have to say is DAMN, Finale has some seriously yummy sweets. Seriously expensive, but seriously yummy.
If anyone wants to take me out sometime, that's where I'll be waiting.

The final two Cook County girls basketball teams playing in the Class 4A state tourney on Monday night are not exactly strangers at this level of competition.
Maine West is appearing in its 11th supersectional and Fremd in its eighth.
The Vikings (27-6) find themselves in a rematch with Rockford Boylan (31-1) at Dundee-Crown High School in Carpentersville while Maine West (27-3) meets Geneva (26-4) for the first time at Addison Trail High School in Addison.
Both Elite Eight contests tip off at 7 p.m.,
Here is a closer look at each supersectional:
At Dundee-Crown: Fremd has played one of the toughest schedules in the state and will play a Rockford Boylan team whose only loss came in its very next game after defeating Fremd 42-41 in the semifinals of the Martin Luther King tournament in DeKalb in January.
Boylan lost to state-ranked Rock Island in the championship 70-60. Junior center Sidney Stull scored a career-high 15 points in that game for Boylan.
A pair of key late steals by Frankie Schiro and Ashley Reyes's free throw with three seconds left lifted the Titans to the win over Fremd.
Reyes finished with 14 points while Sarah Welsh had 12 rebounds.
Fremd was led in that game by senior Grace Tworek's 15 points and 11 from Emily Klaczek.
McKenzie Brow, a 5-foot-7 junior guard, leads the Titans with 14 ppg. She also averages 4.8. rebounds and 3.1 steals while Reyes, a 5-4 sophomore guard, averages 9.9 ppg with 2.2 steals.
Like Boylan, Fremd also has a loss to Rock Island, a 49-42 setback at the Turkey Thriller in Lake Zurich in November.
The Vikings' other five losses are to sectional finalist Rolling Meadows (42-370, Elite Eight finalist Benet (62-60), sectional finalist Evanston (46-35) and sectional finalist Hersey (36-33) in the Mid-Suburban League championship game.
Fremd avenged that loss to Hersey in the Libertyville sectional championship when Tworek, the MSL West's player of the year, scored 17 points with 13 rebounds and 5 blocked shots.
Fremd's supersectional wins have been in 1977 (the first year of the girls state tournament), 1990, 2015 and 2016. The first two came under Hall of Fame coach Carol Plodzien, the last two under current coach Dave Yates, whose team lost to Benest in the state championship games the last two years.
At Addison Trail: Maine West bids for its first supersectional win since 2007 when the late Hall of Fame coach Derril Kipp was on his way to 788 career wins.
The Warriors have dedicated this season to Kipp, who died last summer following his 35th season directing the program which has won seven supersectionals (all under Kipp).
The Warriors defeated Evanston 50-31 at Niles West last Thursday, marking their 11th sectional crown in school history which includes nine under Kipp.
First-year coach Kim deMarigny received a game-high 24 points from junior guard Alisa Fallon, 10 from sophomore Rachel Kent and 8 from freshman Angela Dugalic in avenging a 54-40 loss to Evanston earlier in the season.
DeMarigny led West to an undefeated Central Suburban North title and championships at the Hoffman Estates and Dundee-Crown tourneys.
Geneva is appearing in its sixth supersectional in school history and all have been since 2009.
Coach Sarah Meadows led the Vikings to their last two in 2014 and 2015. In 2014, they took fourth place after falling to Rolling Meadows in the semifinals.
The No. 1 seeded Vikings defeated No. 3 seeded Rolling Meadows 66-40 at the Glenbard West sectional last week as 6-foot-2 senior center Grace Loberg (Wisconsin volleyball recruit) led the way with 21 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists and 3 steals.
Loberg scored 10 second-quarter points as the Vikings outscored the Mustangs 24-12 to extend their 13-5 first-quarter lead into an insurmountable 37-17 halftime advantage.

I think people were still drunk this morning.
- Two, count 'em, two people decided at the last moment that they had to exit from the left lane. When you are travelling down a three lane road in the middle lane, this sitch can be an ish. (sitch = situation...ish=issue). Twice I had to stare at peeps trying to cross two lanes to exit Soldier's Field Road. Wha' happened? Did you two forget where you were going this morning....?
- I had to yell at somebody pulling a u-ey (is that how you spell it?) where they shouldn't have.
Anyway, a good start to the year/month/week/day....

One of the hallmarks of traditional Irish music is the way it has been taught. If you saw the movie "Boys and Girl From County Clare" (known as "Boys From County Clare" outside of the US), it starts with several boys learning tunes bar by bar from their teacher. This has almost always been the way I have been taught a tune, bar by bar, and it is the way I like the least.
One of the cardinal memes of any folk music has been that you have to listen to learn the music. Not only do you have to have the tune, but you have to have the stylistic features and the variance that goes along with the particular style of music. The meme goes on to say that you have to be able to sing the tune before you can play it and with this I agree hardily. It also depends on the instrument you play
In bluegrass, for instance, Bill Monroe tended to be impressionistic about the notes of the tune while his fiddler, Kenny Baker, played every note. In Irish traditional music (ITM) the tunes are played in ensemble in sessions (which are the most common setting) requiring most of the session to have the same variation of the tune in their heads. Because there is so much noise (both actual and technical, i.e. minor variations) in a large group, any changes in the tune can go unnoticed unless you have a very loud instrument, like a banjo. But even then each of the instruments will have a different take on the tune.
As a result, for most people - especially at the beginner and intermediate level - learning a tune note for note makes a lot of sense. Because the teacher is usually a master level player, the stylistic aspect of the tune is implicit which accounts for why we have regional styles. There is a fairly broad stylistic range in any folk/aural music, but for the most part you can tell from whence it comes if you know the music at all. It does make a difference on how you learn those notes, however.
By learning note for note and then practicing the passages and returning to the teacher, most students (at least the ones who practice) learn to play the tunes. Later on, when they have developed a style, they can add variations or absorb other ideas about the tune.
For intermediates there is somewhat of a dilemma in that they are not only trying to learn tunes, but they want technical tips as well. If you have a consistent teacher at this level, these tips come explicitly and implicitly as you observe your teacher/model and ask questions. In workshop environments this is often difficult for the teacher unless all the students are at a similar level.
But there is some value in beginners attending advanced classes. Seamus Connolly once told me (and 150 others) at the second O'Flaherty Retreat in Texas that no matter what the level of skill, you always learn from a master, even if by osmosis and even if you don't know what you learned. Music is not just notes, it is emotional, right brain and fun in addition to being the notes and left brain in the beginning.
This of course is not the main theme of my column, learning efficiency is.
There have been a lot of studies on how musicians tend to memorize pieces. Most of these studies have been done with classical players who are learning to be professionals in their field. In the 30s and 40s two methods were observed, Segmented and Holistic. In the Segmented method a student would learn a passage, play it until it was right and then move on to the next passage. In the Holistic style users played the entire piece through and then went back and worked on it until they were satisfied that it was correct repairing minor flaws as they came up. Interestingly the studies on which was more efficient were mixed and it appeared that both methods were just as efficient.
In the 90s studies were done which showed that there were more ways to skin this particular cat than the two mentioned above and also that expert level musicians would vary the segment size of serial learning according to the formal structure of the piece or according to the difficulty of the passage. Many of these segments were musically meaningful while others were not. Apparently these inconsistencies accounted for the mixed results of learning the whole vs parts in prior studies.
In addition it was also observed that musicians used more subtle strategies to learn a piece including the Serial strategy in which a student would play a piece until a mistake appeared and then they would return to the beginning and start over. In the Additive method the musician would memorize a segment and then systematically expand that segment until the entire piece was learned. This differed from the Segmented method in that a prior learned segment was incorporated into the cycle instead of being set aside and then put together in the end.
The Holistic and Additive strategies had the advantage of including all of the piece in the practice regimen. The Serial technique includes all of the piece too, but it stops when a mistake occurs and there is a break in the continuity of learning the piece as a musical whole.
A study in 2002 showed that the Holistic and Additive methods were more efficient - in other words they learned the music a lot faster than the proponents of the other two methods.
A question still remained: how well did they retain the music after learning it the first time?
The author of the 2002 paper, Jennifer Mishra of the University of Houston, decided to do an experiment to see how well each method worked for long term memory of a 16 bar exercise. She took music education students and divided them into four groups each using one of the techniques mentioned above. The results for efficiency mirrored her 2002 paper, the Serial and Segmented strategy uses took longer to learn the piece while the Holistic method users learned the fastest with the Additive method behind (by statistical analysis) but well ahead of the others.
The long term memory results were a little different, they all seemed to retain the passage a short time afterwards but the Serial method seemed to engender more errors.
When these students were asked how they memorized music, a large number (44%) reported that they used no system that they could discern. Somehow they managed to learn a piece by muddling through although I suspect that they had a method but they didn't know what they were doing - a common thing among experts of all kinds.
So, according the the research, teaching bar by bar is the least efficient way to learn. In Ireland and elsewhere where your teacher is always in the picture over a long period of time, this is not as much of a problem. But in workshop situations it is. I can only give anecdotes, but they are consistent. In every class in which the tunes were taught bar by bar people tend to drop out of the action one at a time and there is a particular problem of being able to accurately remember the first part of a tune even if it was solidly learned fifteen minutes before. Most of this reflects either the level of the student or the learning style at which they excel (and possibly a talent for learning this way.) One thing I always hated was that the passages were not musically meaningful and that until I heard the piece played I didn't get the context.
I find that I learn a tune a lot better if I can sing it first and have it in my head relaxed and especially when it becomes hard to get out of my head. I'll hear the tune a few times, attempt to play it, listen some more and then pick up on the subtle differences between my ear and the tune itself. Rinse and Repeat. Often it will take me weeks to learn a tune well but with tunes I really like it may only take an hour.
I'll often use the Additive strategy when I have a particularly hard piece to learn and will devote time in practice to learn a hard passage (although this is more a practice issue, I usually know the tune by then, I just can't play it.)
Things may be different for you. It is clear that there is a wide variation in the ways that people learn things and there is no reason to think that memorizing a tune is any different. The traditional way of learning (Segmented) works well in the context of regular classes and good motivation. For those of us who don't have a teacher to show us how the tune goes, a combination of a recording/youtube and constant exposure to the whole tune makes more sense.
Here is a video of me playing Home Ruler and Kitty's Wedding, a set of hornpipes that were taught to me by Ken Fleming of the O'Flaherty Retreat. Ken used an Additive method of teaching and he picked great tunes - Thanks Ken!

What single moment stands out to you the most from the 2005-06 season?
the gmu-uconn game- what a game!!!
Tell about your experiences during the Kryptonite Kids' magical run through the tournament:
Having floor seats at the Verizon Center for the GMU-UConn game- was pure heaven!
It was amazing to look up- way up into the stands- and see the sea of green and gold and to hear the true heartfelt school spirit.
Many of my friends and co-workers are not too familiar with Mason. In fact, my phone was blowing up from folks watching the game in awe. My brother even watched the game from Germany!
I just happened to have vacation lined up for the days surrounding the weekend of the Final Four, so I changed my travel destination to Indy!
I was also lucky enough to land lower level seats behind the basket at the RCA Dome in Indianopolis. Although that was our last game, it was a great run and it was nice meeting other GMU alums who made the trip to cheer the team on. It was also nice to experience the respect from fans from the other schools. Even they appreciated the 'Cinderella Team'.
What do you think this moment means for George Mason University?
George Mason is definately on the map now. Now, I don't think I have to explain anything about the school- finally! Hopefully nobody will get us confused with James Madison or George Washington anymore!!

It's also vital that you find familiar with the style beforehand so you're ready to wear it like it is just a part of your usual style and elegance. Ensure you select the most suitable design for your face form.

A Nome Godwit - Ralph Poanessa
They have fanastic cryptic plumage and sit tight on their nests, apparently you can get 1-2m away before they fly off! So the trick will be finding them. A current expedition in Alaska, finding Bristle-thighed curlews, is taking about 40 person-hours per nest. Here's a great photo to give a sense of what the challenge will be...
Photo USGS
Nome is also the ending point of the the famous Iditarod, the trail dog sled race. Not quite the season for it when we are there, given we will have 22 or so hours of daylight, but I'm sure we'll find some of the history of the race around the streets of Nome. Bring it on!


text: I recently finished reading John Henwood's book "The Great Remington 8 and model 81 autoloading rifles". I would recommend it to anyone who's intersested in these old rifles--it's an enjoyable read with lots of good info. on the old Remingtons. In a sense,those guns are really more "Browning" than Remington--having been designed by John Browning and having the same long recoil autoloading system and distinct "humpback" profile as the auto 5 shotgun. Of course the same could be said of lots of other Browning desinged guns manufactured by other companies. I still hunt with my old Model 8,circa 1910,and it still functions perfectly. Now that's saying something,for a gun that's 99 years old! It's a 35 Rem,accurate--and has sent many deer and bear to the frying pan. I purchased the book through biblico books. Happy shooting and happy hunting

How does the relationship between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth change throughout the play?
Extracts from this document...
How does the relationship between Macbeth and Lady Macbeth change throughout the play? In the early stages of the play, the Macbeths seem to be a devoted couple. Their love and concern for each other remains strong and constant throughout the play, but their relationship changes dramatically following the murder of King Duncan in Act 2. The Macbeths' relationship is presented in very strong terms in Act 1 by virtue of their sense of togetherness and resolve when separated by war and when placed under enormous pressure and temptation by the Witches' prophesies. Macbeth's initial reaction to the prophesy of his future kingship in Act 1, scene 3, is skepticism and disbelief: "Say from whence/You owe this strange intelligence? or why/Upon this blasted heath you stop our way/With such prophetic greeting?", but this changes to amazement and wonder when he hears from Ross about his promotion to the Thane of Cawdor, in the same scene, and he immediately thinks about using bloody means to become king: "My thought, whose murder yet is but fantastical,/Shakes so my single state of man", but as this quotation also shows, he is afraid of its treasonable implications. His devotion to Lady Macbeth is immediately apparent in Act 1, scene 5, when he writes her a letter in strictest confidence informing her about the prophesies, although there is a note of inferiority and intimidation, and a sense of duty in his comments: "This have I thought good to deliver thee, my dearest partner of greatness". ...read more.
Go get some water, And wash this filthy witness from your hand. They perform their roles of Thane and Lady, husband and wife, host and hostess perfectly, maintaining the pretence of innocence: "Woe, alas!/What, in our house?" and "The expedition my violent love/Outrun the pauser, reason". However, the murder of Duncan marks the point where their relationship undergoes a shift: she is not as ruthless as she suggests (she could not kill the king) and he is not "full o' the milk of human kindness" as she originally thought. She has unleashed the killer in him and as soon as Macbeth is crowned King, she no longer has power to control him; it is noticeable that she faints in Act 2, scene 3 the moment that her husband confesses to murdering the king's guards - this was not part of Lady Macbeth's plan. Once he becomes king, Macbeth seizes the initiative and makes his own plots against his rivals, Banquo and Macduff, without involving Lady Macbeth: "Be innocent of the knowledge, dearest chuck,/Till thou applaud the deed." However, his language and tone towards his wife appears affectionate and caring. His protectiveness reveals a strong commitment to their relationship. Their private thoughts also reveal their commitment to each other; they both focus on the need for security and stability: "Nought's had, all's spent,/Where our desire is got without content" (Lady Macbeth) ...read more.
Upon receiving the news of his wife's death, Macbeth initially seems unaffected and matter of fact: "She should have died hereafter;/There would have been a time for such a word." However, the dejected tone of the remainder of this speech would suggest that he is deeply affected, feeling lost and aimless: To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day To the last syllable of recorded time, And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. The dreariness of the alliteration and repetition, the fragility of the candle imagery and the futility of the acting imagery all suggest that Macbeth's psyche cannot cope without his wife and his queen. Life holds no future or purpose for him, now she is dead. After their deaths, their relationship is portrayed by Malcolm as "this dead butcher and his fiend-like queen", forever united in evil. He began as a noble captain and ended as a bloody tyrant; she began as a devoted (some might say doting) wife, but ended up a guilt-ridden suicide. Their love remained until the end and their relationship, although subject to change and separation, remained firm. GCSE English and English Literature Macbeth Model essay 1 ...read more.

Overview: Anything that has to do with older women getting it on with young girls I'm there. I definitely looked forward to this release as it featured some of my favorite young and old porn performers. This is the series that began the trend of older/younger girls, and it is still the best. Cougars, kittens, seduction, hot sizzling lesbian sex, it's all here!
Scene 1 Brandi Love, Trinity St. Claire
Trinity arrives to Brandi's house and they talk about what's going on in each other's life since they last saw each other. Trinity is preparing for her cousin's wedding and Brandi wants to help her with some hairstyle ideas. They head to Brandi's bedroom and while Brandi is working with Trinity's hair, Trinity suddenly embraces Brandi, much to Brandi's surprise. They begin to cuddle after Trinity expresses her attraction to Brandi. Brandi, a bit reluctantly, lets Trinity touch her and even take cahrge. Brandi is at least 20 years older than Trinity but it is so freaking hot watching this really young looking girl dominating her older friend. Trinity undresses Brandi and her eyes widen up when she sees Brandi's amazing breast. Out of her dress, Brandi lies down and lets Trinity explore her body. Trinity licks her, sucks on Brandi's tits, and you can hear her breathing heavy when she pulls down Brandi's panties and sees her bush for the first time. She dives in and knows exactly what to do with her tongue. She gives Brandi's clit a nce tongue bathing, making Brandi climax multiple times. Brandi then undresses Trinity and sucks on Trinity's pea size nipples. She also is in awe of seeing Trinity's skinny, underdeveloped young body, rubbing her soft skin, and burying her tongue down Trinity's throat. The two go at it, going from 69 to rubbing their clits up against each other's legs, cumming simultaneously. When they're over they embrace, Trinity resting on Brandi's chest as the scene fades to black.
Scene 2 Dani Daniels, Persia Monir
Persia announces to her underling Dani she will be going away and Dani asks if she can accompany her on her trip just like her previous associate used to. Persia explains that her former associate was her "companion" which Dani believes means they were just friends. Persia takes her to the bedroom and begins to physically explain what she meant by "companion." She removes Dani's clothing and starts sampling the flesh of her very young and sweet looking employee. Dani does nothing to stop Persia from fondling her or going down south on her. Persia eats her cub's pussy to an orgasmic delight. Dani then returns the favor and manages to pleasure her boss, taking direction well and allowing Persia to play with her tits. They finish it off with a 69 before embracing and finishing off the scene.
Scene 3 Deauxma, Kimber Peters
Deauxma arrives to help Kimber with her wedding dress. After talking for a bit Deauxma realizes that Kimber isn't totally happy with her relationship, as she is more attracted to women but has always led her life based on what others expect. Deauxma tells her to live her own life and offers herself to Kimber. Kimber does nothing to stop Deauxma from undressing her, sucking her tits, and necking her. Deauxma is no doubt in charge here, telling Kimber what to do while Kimber is just happy to be with a woman again after so many years of being with her fiance. She hasn't forgotten a thing about being with a woman and Kimber also satisfies Deauxma enough to make her squirt. Clearly the most passionate scene of the film.
Scene 4 Syren De Mer, Rilee Marks
Syren finds out that Rilee has never had sex, nor has she ever dated, and Syren makes her move. She begins to fondle Rilee and Rilee, hesitently, allows Syren to fondle her breasts. Syren removes Rilee's clothes and she begins to work her tongue and lips all over Rilee's sweet tender body. Down on her pussy, Syren eats her out but stops before Rilee can cum. Syren removes her clothes and lets Rilee explore her body before she has Rilee go down on her. Rilee proves to be good at oral, flickering her tongue on Syren's clit and fingering her to near orgasm. Rilee then gets on top of Syren, her clit rubbing up against Syren's leg and she begins to rub herself. You can see her trembling as Syren tells Rilee to let go and just enjoy the orgasm she's about to experience. Hot scene, great way to end to the volume.
Summary: This is definitely one of the best volumes of this series. I enjoyed every single minute. At no point did I have the urge the fast forward. Just sit back and enjoy these cougars seducing these young kittens. I definitely enjoyed the tables being turned and watching Trinity holding Brandi's arms down, taking full control of her. Every once in a while it's nice to see it switched up. This DVD will definitely get any guy, or curious woman/girl excited. It's just a really hot title. I'm definitely Highly Recommending this stellar title!
