Something just ain't kosher.
As reported by Short Order earlier this week, ConAgra Foods, Inc., the company that produces those delicious Hebrew National hot dogs, is being sued. Well, not only sued, but sued in a class action lawsuit.
The law firm of Blackwell Burke filed the suit in Minneapolis on behalf of eleven people who claim that Hebrew National is using non-kosher meat to make its hot dogs and other meat products.
I'm pretty sure God is not happy.
This is just the latest food faux pas in what has now become the food industry standard. Corporations place the not-so-almighty American dollar above quality and consumers and we are the ones paying for it.
Whether it's the use of 'pink slime' in McDonald's hamburgers or the use of 'meat glue' in food items such as pepperoni, corporations have made it explicitly clear that when it comes to down to ingredients, our health is the last priority.
Companies not only use subpar and unhealthy ingredients in their food manufacturing (see ammonia), but continue to produce foods high in sugar, high in sodium, and high in trans fats. Of course, they also continue to use ingredients such as high-fructose corn syrup -- this is all without any regard for the damage they cause, not only to their clients' health, but to the economy (factor in medical, pharmaceutical, and insurance costs).
The worst part is, that these corporations do absolutely nothing until their reprehensible acts go viral. If it weren't for people such as celeb chef Jamie Oliver and food safety advocate Bill Marler, these companies would just continue to feed us glue and slime.
It's really a disgrace. I've come to think of these companies as drug dealers. They know that what they are peddling causes addiction and health issues, but they still keep selling the crack/Coke.

There isn't enough information to form an opinion as to ConAgra's culpability at this point -- we'll have to wait and see as further details are revealed. But we as consumers need to stop being complacent and demand better -- our lives depend on it.

UBS Alert Signals Pain Isn't Over
Potential Mortgage Losses Mean More Credit Turmoil, Frustrating Investor Hopes
UBS AG's fourth-quarter warning stoked increasing anxiety that the pain from the credit-market turmoil that started this summer might last longer than investors had hoped.
Markets reacted optimistically earlier this month when Wall Street's big banks announced billions of dollars in losses related largely to investments in securities backed by U.S. mortgage loans. Stocks rallied on expectations that the worst had passed.

East Finchley Labour Councillor Arjun Mittra has described a written answer from Leader of the Council Richard Cornelius as "shocking ignorance of the Borough he is supposed to lead".
Cllr Mittra asked about street sweeping in the roads east of the High Road in East Finchley, locally known as the 'County Roads' - Hertford Road, Huntingdon Road, Bedford Road,Leicester Road, Lincoln Road and Durham Road:
"Will the council undertake to make more regular sweeping of the County Roads in East Finchley, or provide more bins or anti-littering signs?"
To which Cllr Cornelius replied:
"Barnet does not have any roads which class as County roads."
Cllr Mittra, in his oral supplementary said that he was shocked at the answer, as he said it showed that the Council Leader did not know the borough, and confirmed his suspicion that the Conservative administration did not care about East Finchley and ignored its residents.
Cllr Mittra said:"Barnet Tories treat East Finchley with contempt, whether it's their treatment of the library, the history with the Old Barn, their maintenance of Cherry Tree Wood or their neglect of the High Road. East Finchley residents have never had a fair deal from the Tories, and it seems they don't even want to acknowledge parts of the ward."
Cllr Cornelius responded by suggesting that Cllr Mittra did not know his own ward. Cllr Mittra will now be writing to the Leader of the Council to suggest he purchases an A to Z.

Swiss Maid
The Untold Story of Women's Contributions to Switzerland's Success
Margrit V. Zinggeler
Swiss Maid corrects the omission of women from historical narratives of Switzerland. Women helped with herculean effort in the formation of the small but extraordinary nation, known for its political neutrality and stability, fierce independency, multiculturalism, successful economy, and innovation. The author's investigation and analysis of women's work in Switzerland correlates women's contributions with the country's sociopolitical and economic successes. Women have made historic change in religious institutions, domestic life, artisanry and trade, education, care work, the military, politics, industry and business, and service sectors. Chapters present the qualitative and quantitative data necessary to establish socioeconomic arguments. Women have indirectly contributed to the GNP but more importantly to social progress and the well-being of the nation. Stories of exemplary, pioneering women are highlighted, but silent and silenced common women are also featured and finally recognized. Although Judeo-Christian traditions placed women in subservient positions, they developed their own strength and contributed to the national economy. However, women's work was not sufficiently recognized and valued because of inadequate accounting and productivity models. Gender-specific education, division of labor, and gendered social structures of previous centuries are discussed in relation to women's productivity and social changes in more recent times. Multifactor productivity concepts and social progress measurements shed light on the value of women's work and care. Portraits of historical and contemporary women attest to their intrepid courage and extraordinary yield, without which the "Swiss brand" and the image of Switzerland could not flourish.

CollabNet Recognized for ALM and SCM Solutions and Training for Software Developers
BRISBANE, CA--(Marketwire - October 11, 2010) - CollabNet®, the leader in Agile application lifecycle management (Agile ALM) in the Cloud, today announced that it has been named an "Innovative Application Development and Deployment Company Under $100M to Watch(1)" by IDC, a premiere market research firm. The list recognizes application development and deployment vendors with revenues less than $100 million who are adapting and innovating around current shifts in the market. According to the report, "CollabNet's combined strategy -- providing a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution and leveraging its position in the open source community in conjunction with its commercial offerings -- positioned it well."
CollabNet was chosen for its CollabNet TeamForge™ ALM platform, CollabNet Subversion software configuration management (SCM) solution, and ScrumWorks® project and program management software. These offerings, coupled with advanced training and services, enable teams using any environment, methodology, and technology to increase productivity and to reduce the cost of software development.
"We're pleased to be recognized by IDC as a company to watch," said Bill Portelli, chief executive officer, CollabNet. "CollabNet's products and services enable organizations of any size -- from small workgroups to the largest enterprises -- to transform the way they develop software. As IDC has recognized, CollabNet has been an industry pioneer in Cloud-based software development solutions based on the best practices of Agile and open source, and we continue to innovate in this area."
CollabNet's selection was due in part to its work with the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), the IT wing of the Department of Defense (DoD). DISA was seeking to streamline its software development processes and to save millions of dollars in the development of its defense systems. DISA chose CollabNet TeamForge as the foundation for Forge.mil, a family of public and private services that enables the collaborative development, distribution, and use of open source and DoD community source software. The report noted that TeamForge delivered "improved productivity and shorter development cycles of DoD software projects, enhanced visibility and traceability for better governance and policy compliance, faster time to field for mission-critical applications, and improved application quality through sharing and standardization of best practices and certified code components."

(1) IDC, Innovative Application Development and Deployment Companies Under $100 Million to Watch, IDC #225069, September 2010
IDC's "Innovative Companies Under $100M to Watch" reports are a qualitative evaluation of a set of vendors within a specific market -- they are not a stack ranking nor do they represent an exhaustive evaluation of all companies in a segment or a comparative ranking of the companies in the report. IDC solicited entries from vendors of less than $100 million that exemplify specific key trends (selected by analysts) that are driving change in a specific software market. Vendors then submitted case studies that exemplified one of the trends used as the basis for the award. These case studies were evaluated individually and independently by related market analysts across several pre-determined criteria. The teams then met to review the scores. The case studies submitted for review had to demonstrate that the technology was available, able to be implemented and provided real-world benefits to the customer.

On May 1st, if you're in Paris, or anywhere in France, you're sure to notice people selling 'lily of the valley' (muguet in french) at every metro station and street corner. The country's florists also go all-out, making beautiful creations with 'lily of the valley' as the centerpiece. So what's this 'lily of the valley' thing all about?
In France, it's a longstanding tradition to offer a sprig of muguet to women and girls on the first of May, since the flower is believed to bring 'good luck' (a porte-bonheur). The tradition dates back to 1560, when Charles IX was given muguet to put in his button-hole for luck. From then on, he offered a sprig to every woman in his court.
It wasn't until the beginning of the 20th century, however, that muguet became linked with the 'Fete du travail' (Labour Day in France). On this day only, as a symbol of spring, people were given the right to sell the flower without paying sales tax, causing the tradition to spread quickly and become quite popular.

This isn't simply a query for individuals who worry about Replica Watches and all of the cautious architectural and workmanship that get into real watches. Normally, these designer watches inform period – and that is exactly what a watch will, in the end. But actual watches – being an horologist may place it – do a lot more than that.
Horologists are watch enthusiasts and fans. To them, a wrist watch is greater than a helpful device. Regarding horologists, watches are rational accomplishments to become valued, cautiously regarded as enthusiasts do their cigars. A genuine watch signifies inventive majesty, converted in to the syntax of comes and things. Accurate watches are daring claims, saying not only the full time and day but, fundamentally, the processed personality of the individual.
Designer swiss replica watch additionally create claims, obviously. But the things they state is usually unnecessary, wherever actual watches are concern. They declare only they have been, basically, created by several renowned designer. And what of the look? That may just be remaining like a issue concerning summary preferences. What exactly can there be to think about? One possibly enjoys a particular style or appear or one doesn't. There's virtually no quarrelling above preferences. Preferences are susceptible to from transitory emotions (which might be brought on by only a quick hurry of testosterone) to social customs (oddly, number red-coloured arm rings possess however seemed to complement all of the pink tops which are presently fashionable, even yet in the planet of official styles).

Thomas Piotrowski, owner of Delta Diamond Setters & Jewelers, strikes a welcoming pose while sporting beautiful Brain Squad gray.
INSTORE's Unsung Heroes? Meet the Brain Squad!
These 1,000 jewelers are definitely our secret weapon.
If there is one thing that has allowed INSTORE to stand apart from its trade magazine peers over the last 15 years, it's the Brain Squad, our reader survey group, which provides an unrivaled look into what's happening in independent jewelry stores around the country.
At any given time, about 1,000 store owners and managers belong to the Squad, nearly all of whom will answer at least one survey during the year. The average monthly survey attracts between 260 and 300 responses, a number that rises to over 800 in July when we send out our annual Big Survey.
Each month, the Brain Squad is asked what's selling well in their stores, how their stores are performing and up to a dozen more questions that could focus on anything from how they deal with vendors' phone calls to how they are preparing for an upcoming holiday.
This frontlines surveillance has allowed us to be among the first in the industry to identify product trends: Our readers, for instance, first reported Pandora sales were taking off as early as 2006. More recently, they noted customers asking for those "twirling diamond earrings" back in 2013. Noted industry analyst Ken Gassman has told us the overall sales trends, which we report on our In Front page each month, provide an uncannily accurate indicator of industry trends as reported by the U.S. Commerce Department months later.
"No matter how big or small your store is, someone else had a problem like yours, and has a suggestion on how to fix it."
Our survey software also allows us to slice and dice the data to determine, for example, how small stores are faring, to what extent custom design jewelers may be outperforming full-service jewelers or which regions recovered fastest from the last recession. It's an incredible data set.
Brain Squad members — who get access to much of the raw data — tell us the surveys help them in many ways as well. That's particularly pleasing for us, given the frequency with which we tap their knowledge.
"What's a better place to go for information than your own peeps?" says Erin McMichael Hess, owner of Extinctions in Lancaster, PA. "No matter how big or small your store is, someone else had a problem like yours, and has a suggestion on how to fix it."
For Elysia Demers, Barnhardt Jewelers in Spencer, NC, the surveys are an excellent source of product information. "They open the doors to new lines and designers that maybe you haven't heard of or never considered before."
When we started the Brain Squad, we were hoping a few dozen jewelers would help us get a bit of an idea of what was actually going on out there. Fifteen years later, and a historical membership of more than 2,500 jewelers, we now view the Brain Squad as the heart of the magazine. They are us, and we are them.

In a conversation about one of the critical issues and decision points being set out in my forthcoming collaborative book, "BETTER CHOICES: Bringing Sustainable Transport to Your City" — namely the fundamental structural importance of the climate/transport link — I was told yesterday by a well-placed person in Malaysia that no one in Penang or indeed Malaysia (or for that matter pretty much anywhere else on our gasping planet) takes climate change seriously. At least sufficiently seriously to even consider changing their daily transport choices (which it just happens is what my book is all about.).
That being the case, it would seem to suggest that the core of my work over these last years – namely, trying to find creative, potentially operational links between these devastating climate-triggered issues and the potential of reorganizing our cities around the healthy principles of sustainable transport — is a bit of a waste of my and your time. Well, anybody can make a mistake.
"Common sense" (whatever that is) might suggest that my friend is right and that I am wrong. And if so, why don't I change if not my work and career, at least give up on my line of insistent argumentation and trying to link the two? I should if I understand it correctly become a "reasonable man". As Bernard Shaw put it: "the reasonable man adapts himself to the world . . . " That's it, that's what I need to do: adapt to the world and give up on trying link the battle against climate change with what I believe to be the enormous healing potential of transitioning over to sustainable transport in our cities.
Hmm. Here is an interim response to that:
Let me test my hypothesis and take the temperature in a diverse and demanding context. Over the next two weeks I am presenting my understanding of the driving climate/transport link to no less than six international expert forums in the coming two weeks in Taiwan. Let's see what they have to say.
We will then perhaps see more clearly after the dust from Taipei settles on this.
Stay tuned.

High School Graduation
Each student graduates from high school ready for college and career.
The graduation rate for all district and charter high schools in Minneapolis-St. Paul (MSP) is 64%. Unfortunately, wide gaps exist between racial and ethnic groups:
9th grade is a critical year for high school students. In fact, 9th grade course passage is more predictive of graduation than race or income. (i) These findings reflect the experience of our local high schools. Generation Next approached high schools in both cities and inquired about the specific needs of their students. Principals highlighted that challenges emerge as early as 9th grade, with some students falling behind on credits so much that it jeopardizes their ability to graduate on time.
Generation Next is currently investigating this further by gathering data on when students begin to fall behind in Minneapolis and Saint Paul high schools. Simultaneously, staff is documenting the schools, districts, and out-of-school services available for students that fall behind on credits.
Minneapolis Public Schools On-Track
All high schools receive aggregate On-Track reports. Two pilot schools receive student level on-track reports and are piloting interventions at the first sign of risk

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — President Barack Obama and his family are attending Easter services at the Alfred Street Baptist Church in Alexandria, Virginia, which says its history goes back to the time when Thomas Jefferson was in the White House.
According to the church's website, the Alexandria Baptist Society was formed in 1803 when members split from another church in the Northern Virginia city, and a slave was baptized that year as its first black member.
Three years later, black members established the Colored Baptist Society as a "conjoined" church.
In 2000, President Bill Clinton visited Alfred Street a few days before the November election as he sang with the gospel choir and appealed for a large turnout of black voters for Vice President Al Gore in his race against Republican George W. Bush.

Beautify your party with this delicious salad.
This Salad Nicoise recipe will be enjoyed by everyone. There's a little bit of so many good things: Romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, tuna, eggs and more wind up decoratively arranged in this buffet table beauty.
Elaborate? Yes, but, most of this salad can be made ahead of the time.
It's not the cheapest, but we know your guests will like it. Spend some time building this salad carefully. All the colors and textures should be like paints on an artist's brush.
Chances are good that you'll have a vegetarian or two at your party. Salad Nicoise offers them and everyone a good alternative choice.
This recipe will feed 50 people, if you are you are serving other snacks, and/or appetizers, dinners, etc. Read about Party Food Quantities and how to plan for the right amounts.
Shopping List for 50 People:
___3 packages of romaine lettuce
___4 – 12 ounce cans of three-bean salad
___12 plum tomatoes
___2 cucumbers
___4 bell peppers, red or green
___2 bunches of scallion onions
___8 - 6-ounce cans of white Albacore tuna, the best quality
___2 – 12 ounce cans of pitted black olives
___2 – 12 ounce jars of stuffed green olives
___1 dozen eggs
___2 - 2-ounce cans of anchovy fillets
The Dressing:
___8 ounces of extra virgin olive oil
___Small amount of red wine vinegar
___3 lemons
___Small amount Dijon mustard
___Salt and pepper
___1 disposable aluminum pan 12 ¾" x 20" x 3" (large, deep, "full" pan)
___1 bag of ice
One Day Before the Party:
Hard-boil the dozen eggs, using the following method: in a large pot that has a cover big enough to hold all the eggs, carefully stack the eggs, fill with water, shake in some salt and cover. Heat on high heat until it boils. Allow to boil for two minutes and turn off heat, leaving covered the entire time.
Allow to stand, still covered, with no heat, for twenty minutes. After 20 minutes, carefully remove one egg and run under cold water for one minute or two. Peel the egg and cut in ½ to see if it is cooked throughout. If it is, remove the eggs from the stove, carry to the sink and run under cold water for 5 minutes or more. Drain off water and refrigerate for one hour or more. Remove from refrigerator, peel and wash eggs with water and return to refrigeration.
The Dressing for Salad Nicoise:
Make the dressing by combining the 8 ounces of olive oil, ¼ cup of red wine vinegar, the juice of the three lemons and ¼ cup of the mustard with one table spoon of salt and one tea spoon of pepper. Mix together very well. Store in a zip-lock bag and refrigerate.
TIP: If time is not on your side and you need to do more prep work today and not tomorrow – you can go ahead and prep the cucumbers, onions and peppers today, storing them in zip-lock bags in the refrigerator overnight. Of course, they're better if you can cut them just before serving – but things don't always work out that way…!
On the Day of the Party:
Wash, peel and slice the cucumbers, store in zip-lock bags and refrigerate.
Wash and cut the bell peppers into thin rings.
Wash and chop the scallion onions.
Store in zip-lock bags and refrigerate them together.
Cut the hard-boiled eggs into quarters – wedges through the center of the egg.
Sprinkle the cut wedges with a little salt and set aside.
Open up the cans of beans and drain them completely. Set aside.
Open the cans of tuna, green olives and black olives.
Drain completely. Set aside.
Open the anchovies and allow them to drain completely. Place them in a small serving dish or a bowl, set aside.
Break the romaine lettuce into bite-size pieces and carefully fill the disposable aluminum pan.
Pour about half of the dressing over the lettuce and toss it together with your clean hands. Return to the refrigerator.
Wash and cut the cut tomatoes into wedges. Try to get six wedges per tomato.
And now for the fun part:….!
Assemble all ingredients around your pan of lettuce. Now decoratively and artfully arrange all ingredients onto your bed of lettuce, except for the anchovies. (We'll be serving these separately on the buffet table, so only the people who really like them can have them).
Once this beautiful salad is built, carefully pour the remaining dressing over the top. Don't be afraid to sprinkle a little pepper for color and taste. Cover and refrigerate.
Transfer the aluminum pan of salad to your chilled chafing dish. Keep the salad covered until just before your guests arrive. Put the anchovies on a small dish and place next to the salad.
Leftovers of Salad Nicoise:
As a leftover, this salad has a very limited life. Refrigerate it and enjoy it for a couple of days.

If you're stressed about your finances, you're not alone. In fact, money is the top sources of stress for American adults and 25% of us worry about money all the time.1Fretting over money occasionally is normal but when we get so overwhelmed that we simply ignore our finances, it can cause long-term financial pain. Ignorance is not bliss when it comes to your financial affairs so if the thought of keeping a budget sends shivers down your spine, here are 6 reasons you shouldn't be afraid of your finances.
1. Your financial situation isn't going anywhere – You can ignore your financial situation today but it will still be there tomorrow, next week and when it's time for retirement. It's never too late to take control of your financial affairs and become more financially literate. Your future self will thank you.
2. You can't fix what you don't know – You're entitled to a free copy of your credit report every 12 months but 65% of Americans haven't glanced at theirs in the past year.2 Afraid of what's in there? It might not be pretty but you can't take charge of your financial future unless you know what you're dealing with. Experts also suggest keeping track of every penny you spend for a few months to get an idea of where your money is going. With this basic information, you can start to plan for a healthier financial future.
3. Saving feels better than spending – It's hard to believe that putting $200 in a savings account could feel better than splurging on those fabulous new shoes but it's true. Sure, there will be some short-term pain but that will quickly be replaced by the excitement of watching your savings accumulate. Even if you only save $10 a week, you'll have more than $500 after a year and the confidence boost from knowing that you can do it.
4. Budgeting sets you free – When you're not used to a budget, it's easy to feel deprived, especially when your monthly entertainment stipend runs out and it's only the middle of the month. But, balancing your outgoing funds with your incoming funds is the only tried and true way to make sure you don't spend more than you earn.
5. You can't predict the future – Spending every cent you make and paying only the minimum balance on credit cards might work for a while but if you lose your job or get seriously ill, you'll have no backup plan. No matter how rosy your current situation is, it's prudent to have even a small rainy day fund to cover expenses in an emergency situation.
6. You are not alone – You may feel like the only person in the world with financial troubles but according to a recent survey, 62% of Americans admit to a big financial mistake3 and 63% said it cost them $10,000 or more3. There are support networks to help people get out of debt and build a healthier financial future. The National Foundation for Credit Counselling can connect you with a debt management expert who can review your finances and provide advice for little or no cost.
Not sure if you're afraid of your finances? Take the National Foundation for Credit Counselling's quiz "How do I know if I'm in financial trouble?" and poke around the website for tips and guides on how to turn things around.

Published By: Tariq ZidanSeptember 12, 2014
PGA golfer–Rory McIlroy had an interesting tee off at the 14th hole during the 2014 Tour Championship. Rory nailed the ball of the tee. It was unclear where the ball landed. A spectator somehow caught the ball in his shorts' pocket.

McIlroy walked up to the spectator shook his hand. He had fun with the situation. Pocket golf isn't like pool. So Rory had to drop where the spectator was standing. He had an amazing recovery shot back onto the green.

Congratulations to our partners over at African Bat Conservation who have made some exciting discoveries over the last six months in Liwonde National Park.
During the 2015 cold dry and hot dry season, the ABC team identified a species of bat previously unknown to exist in Malawi, Mimetillus thomasi, or Thomas's flat-headed bat, found at two survey sites in the park. This bat is in the vespertilionidae family and has a distinctive broad flattened skull as well as translucent finger membranes. There are only 14 specimens in museums, and although already known from Zinave National Park in southern Mozambique, Zambia and adjoining parts of the DRC, and central Angola, no records have come from Malawi before.
Another new bat to the park is Scotophilus nigrita, the giant yellow house bat, a huge house bat with a forearm length up to 80cm long – nearly twice that of the more common white-bellied and yellow house bats! There is very little data on this species and it is thought to be sparsely distributed with, until now, no records of its echolocation calls and virtually nothing known about its roosting or habitat preferences.
The Liwonde National Park ABC research team also recently caught and identified three individuals of Myotis welwitschii – Welwitsch's myotis – in open mopane woodland. Although this species is already known to Malawi, it is a new species for the park and is sparsely distributed across south-eastern Africa, as well as being described as a mountain dwelling species.
African Bat Conservation is a non-profit project under UK charity Conservation Research Africa which conducts applied research, conservation and education to bring bats to the conservation agenda and conserve bat populations in Africa. Find out more about their work.

Online casino players often wonder if such a thing as "loose slots" actually exists. Some people think that new slot machines offer better payouts so that they attract a lot of players at the beginning. It might seem true, but it's just a misconception. Random Number Generator is used in all slot games, old ones as well as new ones. There's no way to make a slot machine loose first and then change it later.
Advertising "the loosest slots" is common among online casinos. It makes new players want to join because they fall for the advert. In reality it's not true because the way slot games offer payouts can't change. It's determined by the payout percentage, which gets verified every time a casino gets audited. The highest percentage means that payouts are more frequent, but it doesn't mean that winnings are higher.
Slots are purely luck-based and players cannot do anything to increase their chances. The only thing that can be done is choosing slots with the best payouts and percentages according to the pay table. Those are different from loose slots because they're not changeable, they're still completely based on the RNG just like all the other games. It's important to understand that influencing outcomes in any way is impossible, whether it would be done by the casino or by the player.

I've recently teamed up with the folks at BadCat amps, and they helped me come up with my own signature series amp! Of course, we named it Luca after my son. He's a little stud.
This amp Rules! I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. BadCat is a amazing amp company, and i'm stoked to be adding this guy to my arsenal. I expect its gonna get a lot of play on future records and tours.
The Luca is based off of the Wild Cat 40's 12AX7 channel. Its a C30 circuit that runs through 2 EL34s. The Luca also has the ability to switch between using standard bass/treble/cut controls, or switching over to a 6 position tone wheel. The amp can be used with traditional master/volume knobs to make the tubes break up quicker, or you can switch off the master knob and just use only the volume knob, resulting in quite a lot of headroom for clean tones. Power and Standby knobs were also moved from the back of the amp out to the front. The Luca also has a Half Power switch in the back, which lets me cut the power of the amp in half if I want. This option is great for getting sweet tone at lower volumes.
This guy is definitely one of my favorite amps i've ever played. Mine is Red and Black with a 2×12 cab (badcat speakers). Check out the pictures, and i'll post some demo videos soon so you can hear it growl.
It's available now at BadCat.Com.

This book challenges institutions and their programs to prioritize the use of chronological assessment results to benefit enrolled students in comparison with the more common practice of prolonged assessment cycles that generally benefit future students.
Peggy Maki advocates for real-time assessment processes to identify patterns of underperformance and obstacles that require timely interventions for enrolled students to succeed.
In tandem with the sets of educational practices and policies that many institutions have now undertaken to close achievement and graduation rates across our diverse student demographics, such as developing clear degree pathways, she calls on all higher education providers – if they are to remain relevant and meet their social purpose in our complex world – to urgently recalibrate their assessment processes to focus on currently enrolled students' progress towards achieving a high-quality degree, regardless of when they matriculate or re-enter higher education.
She demonstrates that we already have sufficient examples and evidence to implement real-time assessment of students as they progress through their studies. She draws on the practices of specialized accredited programs, such as those in the professions that assess in real time; on the experiences of institutions that have adopted competency-based education; and on the affordances of technologies that now provide faculty and students with up-to-the-minute diagnostics.
She identifies the six principles necessary to implement a real-time assessment process, illustrated by case studies of how campuses have operationalized them to advance students' equitable progress towards achieving a high-quality degree; and demonstrates the benefits of real-time assessment compared to more future-oriented processes, among which is engaging students in reflecting on their own progress along their degree pathways.
She advocates for the use of well documented national outcomes-based frameworks such as Liberal Education and America's Promise (LEAP), its aligned Valid Assessment of Learning in Undergraduate Education scoring rubrics ( VALUE), the Degree Qualifications Profile, and discipline-based outcomes assessments to ensure high-quality degrees that meet well-defined standards and criteria. She also identifies how data systems and technological developments help to monitor closely and respond in time to students' patterns of underperformance.
The book is an urgent call for higher education to achieve the values of equity, transparency and quality it espouses; and ensure that all students graduate in a timely fashion with the competencies they need to be active and productive citizens.

Reviews & Endorsements:
"Peggy Maki, not surprisingly, again advances the practice and the fundamental reasons for engaging in assessment of student learning. Maki issues a clarion call for equity to be the center of our commitment for action. Her call is for timely action that produces the evidence of improved student learning, enhancing at every step both retention and completion, and quality of learning for success in life, work and lifelong flourishing."
- Terrel L. Rhodes, Vice President, Office of Quality, Curriculum and Assessment
Association of American Colleges and Universities
Real-Time Student Assessment
is the absolute best book on the market today for anyone engaged in student learning outcomes assessment. It is current, based on exhaustive research and actual practice, exemplified through multiple case studies and extensive references for follow-up. While assessment is typically required as part of regional, national and specialized accreditation, Maki demonstrates why real-time student assessment (RTSA) is different from many assessment practices, and provides both commentary on why RTSA is the most effective as well as step-by-step approaches on how to make assessment work for both faculty and students. I will be buying copies for many of my colleagues myself!"
- Ralph Wolff, President, The Quality Assurance Commons for Higher and Postsecondary Education; former President
WASC Senior Accrediting Commission
From the Foreword:
"By the time results from traditional assessment approaches become available, a new academic term or year has begun, and faculty and students have moved on to a different set of academic expectations and challenges. In other words, the data that could inform and influence faculty and students to improve their performance come to the fore too late to be of consequence.
How can we obtain—
in real time
—information that can help advance the outcomes we desire?
Fortunately, this informative tome by Peggy L. Maki is just in time. Drawing on her vast, rich experience, Maki offers many instructive ideas, illustrated with concrete examples, about how to gather and use actionable information in real time about what students are and are not doing that will enable them to acquire and demonstrate the knowledge, proficiencies, and dispositions postsecondary institutions promise and employers expect of the twenty-first century learner and worker."
- George Kuh, Senior Scholar, National Institute for Learning Outcomes Assessment, and Chancellor's Professor of Higher Education Emeritus
Indiana University
"Peggy Maki's
Real-Time Student Assessment
has arrived just in time! As a higher education professional who has relied on Maki's expertise and previous publications to inform my leadership for campus work for over a dozen years now, I am grateful that her new book rightfully challenges us to embrace real-time student assessment as an engaging and faculty-centered pedagogical practice. With a whole host of resources, strategies, and robust examples including ePortfolio implementation, Maki once again provides strong evidence and guidance for assessment reform on our campuses that, when brought to scale, will surely help us in our continuing quest to improve both student learning and time to completion for all the students we serve."
- PHILIP J. SISSON, Provost and Vice President of Academic and Student Affairs, Middlesex Community College
"This must-read, leading-edge, powerful volume challenges those in academe committed to
increasing graduation rates, closing educational opportunity gaps, and enhancing quality
learning, to move assessment to its critical next level—the integration of real-time student
assessment into the fabric of the teaching and learning process. Maki concisely and eloquently
details the demographic and assessment landscape, providing the backdrop for this
imperative; provides concrete, in-depth case studies as guidance; and illustrates the ways in
which technology can be harnessed to advance this initiative."
- BONNIE ORCUTT, Professor of Economics, Worcester State University
