The Cloud. The Pied Piper is playing for
The Cloud, how wonderful it is. Let us put all of our knowledge and experience into the Cloud where it will be available to everyone everywhere at their very finger tips. Save the forests and the environment, no paper needed with the Cloud. No written books, no libraries, all of that is in the past. The knowledge of the entire world is instantly accessible at any time from the Google Oracle. Ask and ye shall receive. What an enlightened society it will bring.
Then the lights go out... and stay out.

How you doing stu90? Haven't spoke with you lately...

What happens if you don't have a wifi connection and are out of 3g signal range - Does the chromebook becomes a chrome brick?
Good point! and you are 100% right on... but... is it any different than your cell-phone? I'm sure you have one of those? doesn't everybody in this age!!! Pretty hard to be without one anymore. If Cloud stuff eventually goes all satellite (and I believe it will) the problems with dead-spots (like cell-phones, Google Chromebooks will have) will be a thing of the past. It's just a matter of time and it should be as affordable as cable, maybe even a lot less as it becomes more popular. I know our government is currently working on a plan to get the entire U.S. capable of wireless, high-speed Internet, there are even rumors of wifi inducted into electric lines... Wow... blows your mind.
Many are rambling on about 'Big Brother' watching us via the Cloud... I'll only say it once... since anyone has had a Land-Line or Cell Phone, Internet Connection (any type.. land-line, cable, sattelite, wifi) you have given up what used to be know as 'Privacy.' Especially since 911. Super Computers can now track 'everyone's Internet and phone calls in less than a minute, and that's for EVERYONE in the entire world! So don't even try to debate that issue!
What we are in people is a 'Technology BOOM' Not I, but the so-called experts predict that technology will advance 'More In The Next Year' than it has in the 'Past 20-Years' They say it will be more than our minds can keep up too... From what I see happening on a day by day basis, I can believe it!!! Thankfully, there are still enough 'Light' Puppy programs to fill our needs on the older hardware and probably so for years to come but that doesn't mean one should be turning his head the other way to new technology, In my tread in these forums on Cloud Puppy, I listed some Cloud programs (and
listed quiet a few in his post there) All these can be used by ANY version of Puppy to enhance ones online experience with apps (in the Cloud) many that are not possible to install or normally use in any Puppy Version (except via your Browser.) If you can't call that 'A step Forward' I don't know what else there is, I certainly don't see anything better being developed for Puppy's future anywhere?
... When the lights go out, no matter Cloud, Dial-up, WiFi... throw your computer out, we're all finished

Post subject: cloudy day
"The Cloud" doesn't particularly concern me, not in the "Big Brother" sense that most in the thread seem to fear. Like most things, you pays your money, and you takes your chances.
I'm worried that it is, at the end of the day, simply data lock-in that will be the worst thing about the cloud. (We've all fought that battle before) It will shake out to a few big corporations, and putting your data in any silo will mean it becomes increasingly more difficult to get out, either through lack of standards, or merely through inertia. Every tried to upload, or
, 75GB of photos? Imagine moving your data after 10 years of uploading pics, movies, docs, spreadsheets, etc. I shudder....

The Cloud is inevitable simply because that is where computer technology is headed. Witness the newest OS offerings. The only thing that will prevent it is if enough people simply refuse to use it, if that's possible. It will become reality because most people are inherently lazy and will always take the easy way, blind to potential consequences.
. and civilization will have a much harder time recovering if our accumulated knowledge vanishes with the lights.
Consider this; if your identity is totally in the cloud (all digital), all of your tax returns, business records, bank accounts, property deeds, birth record, everything, it becomes easy for the government, or whatever powers that be, to simply erase you if you become troublesome. You would not be able to prove you own your house, pay for anything, or even buy food. What if your identity simply vanished overnight, like your posts? Oops.
In case you can't tell, I love a good conspiracy theory! It doesn't have to be completely true to be good.

Tell me why in the world Google is not good? Seriously, for collecting information about my interests? To show me ads that I might be interested in, and with this providing me free great apps? Yeah, Google is a badass!
Not saying about their investment in the open source development.
We are living in the world of money, Google trying to earn them a lot, yes, but they also doing great things. Project Hosting? I/O? SummerCamp? Android? Yeah, they are just making money out of nothing. Oh, wait, or was it Microsoft?
And, sorry,

Post subject: Nimbophobia: 4 more reasons to fear the cloud
It's been a gratifying week for my fellow nimbophobics. Our numbers are growing by leaps and bounds. Consider just four examples ...
* Apple MobileMe transition and iCloud: Those beautiful online albums of thousands of images and videos? Kiss them all good-bye. Your massive web site? Sayonara.
* A few weeks after being caught dissembling about their encryption keys, Dropbox accidentally removes all security for all accounts for four hours.
* Google is shuttering its hugely hyped Google Health Personal Health Record. Hope you weren't relying on those online medical records you entered.
* My longstanding and much appreciated Google Custom Search pages are, as of today, abruptly overwhelmed with copious top and side Google ads.
These stories range from appalling (Apple) to annoying (excess ads in custom search pages). The Google PHR fail would be the worst, but it's somewhat mitigated by the data exit options they provide and by the two year warning. Those options include CCR XML migration to Microsoft's HealthVault [1].
Friends don't let friends rely on the Cloud. Don't put anything in the Cloud unless you have a way to move your data to an alternative platform. That's as true for your business processes as it is for your family photos.
[1] Any health informatics students looking for a semester project or an easy publishable paper? Create a PHR in Google Health Records. Export as CCR XML. Import into Microsoft HealthVault. Write a paper on the data loss.

Gee, what's this thing we call 'cloud computing'?
Well, you have a central datacenter with a bunch of internetworked servers (interconnected computers/systems to process lots of data at once). We can't let one person have full (root) access, or let one person hog everything in the datacenter; that would be too dangerous and/or expensive. So everybody shares the resources (user limits) and they are able to login from their home/work/etc. computers (remote systems) and access their allotted portion of the datacenter.
Gee, where have I heard of this before?
Well, in the '70s and '80s (and a little bit in the '60s), we had gigantic computers (we called them "mainframes", and boy were they huge!) that didn't do very much and couldn't be moved around hardly at all. So people had 'terminals' (remote systems*) which they used to login to the central computer and do their work or communicate (the old BBS's, Bulletin Board Systems). Obviously, if one person had full (root) access, or hogged too much computing power, there would be problems, so there were rules about that (user limits). We called it "computer timesharing" back then, though.
Gee, everything old is new again?
Yep. Funny, isn't it?
*in the older "timesharing" methodology, the terminals were often what are called 'dumb terminals' -- little more than a screen, keyboard, and (sometimes) printer, connected to the central mainframe computer via wires. The closest modern equivalent is the 'thin client', which is a low-power computer that basically is a fancy interface between a server and a user. Not much difference, then!

Jason Lytle Storms South By Southwest
Spring Thaw Brings Former Grandaddy Frontman out to Support ANTI- Records Debut Yours Truly, the Commuter
After emerging from a self-enforced retreat during the first winter in his newly adopted Montana with a brilliant new record Yours Truly, the Commuter (out May 19 via ANTI- Records), Jason Lytle is making the most of the sunnier climes of Austin TX with three days of appearances at SXSW 2009.
Lytle's sudden reappearance on the music scene after Grandaddy's quiet demise three years ago has been welcome news to both fans and music writers from Pitchfork to Spin to Magnet who are all eagerly awaiting the release of Yours Truly. And they will not be disappointed. Lytle's first solo record, with its swirling vintage synth sounds, affecting melodies and fuzzed-out guitars, recalls his acclaimed decade of work as singer and principal songwriter for Grandaddy. Yet there are new elements running through this current record. Perhaps it is the broad vistas of the Montana skyline or the newly-found freedom of writing and playing every single note of music himself, but somehow the themes of loss and redemption, highs and lows that have been present in all of Lytle's writings, are less tragic, more forgiving, especially towards himself.
Jason Lytle at SXSW (more sets and set-times to be announced):
- Pirate/Epitaph Party: Thursday, March 19 @ Room 710 / 710 Red River / w/Jessica Lea Mayfield, Say Hi, Hot Panda, Blue Eyed Blacks / Doors: 12pm / 4pm
- OFFICIAL SHOWCASE: Friday, March 20 @ Central Presbyterian Church / 200 E 8th St. / w/Ceci Bastida, Fanfarlo, Low Anthem, Lisa Hannigan, Laura Marling, Howe Gelb / 1am
- Under the Radar Party: Friday, March 20 @ Flamingo Cantina / 515 E 6th St. / TBD pm (30 min set)
- The Ship Party - Location TBD / Saturday, March 21 / Jason: 5:15pm
- Mess With Texas / Saturday, March 21

1857 - 1919
Ruggero Leoncavallo short biography
A great Italian Romantic opera composer, Ruggero Leoncavallo had his music education in Naples and studied literature in Bologna. Leoncavallo's first opera, I Medici was a resounding failure, and defiant Leoncavallo wrote both the poem and music of Pagliacci. The enormous success of this work made Leoncavallo a celebrity. This opera written in a skillful verismo style has become one of the most popular operas of all time.

Budget Bars: Soundbars from Vizio, Samsung, LG, and Harman Kardon
TVs are lonely. A beer-soaked barstool at 2 a.m. kind of lonely. They cry out for companionship, their tinny, bass-less voices difficult to hear, even harder to enjoy. When they were young, they held so much promise: high definition, good times, low cost. How quickly came the onset of disappointment?
A search, a hope, a late-night call for help. Four suitors — less "Diamonds and Gold" and more "Small Change" — sauntered in: the Valley vixen, Harman Kardon's Soundbar 30; two Seoul singers, LG's NB3520A and Samsung's HW-E550; and Vizio's VHT215, glossy black from head to toe and fluent in Mandarin.
The tip jar at the bar may not hold quite enough, but enough is all you will need to hold: Just a few hundred dollars is what you'll pay for this play. In tow with each soundbar: a faithful wireless subwoofer to nip at the heels and bring bass to the table where none was before. Half the bars are HDMI-friendly, and all of them come with remotes for you to dial in your choice of 11 p.m. loud or 4 a.m. loud.
But now it's a quarter to three, there's no one in the place, 'cept you and me. Let's find one for your baby, and three more for the road.
Measurement Notes
To test the performance of the soundbars, I first did frequency response measurements on both the soundbars and subwoofers. Then I did CEA-2010 output measurements on the subwoofers.
Soundbar response measurements were done on the left channels only, with all surround, EQ, and volume management modes deactivated. I placed the bars atop a 2-meter stand and placed the microphone at a distance of 2 meters, enough to incorporate the contributions of all the drivers and diffraction from the front baffles of the soundbars. I averaged responses at 0°, ±10°, ±20°, and ±30°, then smoothed the result to 1/12th octave. These measurements were good down to 300 Hz. I then did ground-plane measurements (smoothed to 1/3rd octave) of the soundbars to get their <300 Hz response, then spliced the ground plane to the quasi-anechoic response to get the curves you see here. All subwoofer frequency response measurements were done using 1/3rd-octave-smoothed ground plane sweeps at 2 meters. I used a Clio FW analyzer in MLS mode for the quasi-anechoic measurements and log chirp mode for the low-frequency measurements.
I measured the Samsung HW-E550 in both configurations: soundbar (horizontal) and stereo speaker (vertical).
CEA-2010 measurements were done at 2 meters, then scaled up +6 dB to simulate results at 1 meter as required by CEA-2010. Averages were performed in pascals, according to the new but as-yet-published revisions to CEA-2010. An "L" appears next to those measurements in which the device reached maximum volume without passing the CEA-2010 distortion thresholds. With most subwoofers, this indicates the presence of a limiter that actively restricts maximum output, but with low-cost products like these soundbars it may simply reflect the manufacturer's chosen maximum output level. — Brent Butterworth

Or maybe, its tied in with feeling incredible, having more vitality, enhancing your wellbeing, and boosting your temperament. In the event that you feel overpowered by all the clashing sustenance and best diet shakes exhortation out there, youre not the only one. It appears that for each master who discloses to you a specific nourishment is beneficial for you, youll discover another idiom precisely the inverse. In any case, by utilizing these straightforward tips, you can slice through the perplexity and figure out how to make and adhere to a delicious, changed, and best diet shakes that is as useful for your brain for what its worth for your body.
What is a best diet shakes?
Eating a best diet shakes doesnt need to be excessively confused. While some explicit nourishments or supplements have been appeared to beneficially affect temperament, its your general dietary example that is generally essential. The foundation of a best diet shakes example ought to be to supplant handled sustenance with genuine nourishment at whatever point conceivable. Eating nourishment that is as close as conceivable to the manner in which nature influenced it to can have a colossal effect to the manner in which you think, look, and feel.
Setting yourself up for progress best diet shakes
Changing to a best diet shakes doesnt need to be a win big or bust suggestion. You dont need to be impeccable, you dont need to totally dispense with nourishments you appreciate, and you dont need to make a huge difference at the same time – that generally just prompts conning or abandoning your new eating arrangement. A superior methodology is to make a couple of little changes at any given moment. Keeping your objectives unobtrusive can enable you to accomplish more in the long haul without feeling denied or overpowered by a noteworthy best diet shakes upgrade. Consider arranging a sound diet as various little, sensible advances – like adding a plate of mixed greens to your best diet shakes once every day.

For a large number of us, control implies eating short of what we do now. Yet, it doesnt mean dispensing with the sustenances you cherish. Having bacon for breakfast once every week, for instance, could be viewed as balance on the off chance that you tail it with a solid lunch and supper-however not on the off chance that you tail it with a crate of doughnuts and a wiener pizza.

Back in March, I wrote a post called "The 11 Most Miserable Cities In America."
The post was based on the latest set of data from Gallup's annual Well-Being Index, which ranks cities in terms of emotional and physical health, work environment, and access to basic necessities, among other factors.
Let's be clear: I've never been to any of the cities on the list.
In the post, I explained that the list was based on statistics published by the consulting company, and not my own impressions.
Even so, I managed to make some folks pretty mad — just take a look at the comments.
One person, though, was determined to prove me wrong.
Sandy Stimpson, a businessman and mayoral candidate from Mobile, Ala. — which was the third miserable city in America, according to Gallup — started tweeting me invitations to come see the city for myself.
@jzeveloff we want to fly you into Mobile, AL and give you the red carpet treatment of our awesome city. Are you up for that?— Sandy Stimpson (@SandyStimpson) April 4, 2013
@jzeveloff would love to have you come visit our town! #mobileal pic.twitter.com/h3oaYAdyNs— Sandy Stimpson (@SandyStimpson) May 8, 2013
At first, I politely declined. But then I started to read about Mobile, and realized it actually sounded pretty neat.
Sure, the city fell in the bottom quintile on nearly every ranking on Gallup's index. But it's also home to the ninth-largest port in the U.S., which has worked hard to recover from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in 2010. Airbus is currently building a major aircraft factory there, a move that will create several thousand jobs.
Plus, Mobile has one of America's best military museums. And it hosts a Mardi Gras celebration that reportedly rivals New Orleans'.
Stimpson reiterated his invitation, and wooed me with a YouTube video and a personalized Tumblr (and a hashtag!).
So I ran the idea past my bosses, and decided to take Stimpson up on his offer to show to me that Mobile is not one of America's most miserable cities. I'm flying down to the Gulf Coast city later this week, where I'll visit the Mobile River Delta, eat fresh seafood from the Gulf, and visit the plant of shipbuilder Austal USA.
I'm looking forward to meeting Stimpson, who is sponsoring my trip. But I really don't care about the Mobile mayoral race (Stimpson is running against Sam Jones, who's been in office since 2005).
I do care about getting a real perspective on the city.
As the saying goes, there are lies, damn lies and statistics. I suppose I'll soon find out where the Gallup stats belong.
I sincerely hope that Stimpson and Mobile prove me wrong. You can read all about my trip here, and if you have any suggestions for can't-miss activities or sights in Mobile, please shoot me an email at email@example.com.

Revision as of 18:17, December 2, 2005
This is a general discussion page for OrthodoxWiki Administrators to work out various administrative issues, notes, and to-do lists. Our host and first-among-sysops is FrJohn.
- For the sake of grabbing attention with new notices, it's probably best to put new subjects at the top of this page after the "Useful Admin links."
- If you are not an administrator and would like to leave a note for the admins to see, please put it on the Talk page.
Useful Admin links
- OrthodoxWiki Yahoo Group - Low-volume closed discussion for OrthodoxWiki sysops. If you qualify, please sign up!
- OrthodoxWiki:Protected page guidelines

- Special:Listusers
We seem to have drawn some imitators. Check out the following pages and see if you recognize anything (I added a "Source" line to the last one, which took text from one of our articles; not sure if perhaps we should keep an eye out for non-attribution when we're used as a source):

Wikimedia Commons
I just ran across the storehouse of images and other files related to Orthodoxy on the Wikimedia Commons.
How do you think we can integrate these or best draw attention to these as a source for articles? I think, as a rule, we should prefer images with open licenses to those from our other benefactors.
Year-end inventory
Please see OrthodoxWiki:Inventory. Thanks.
New Features
As of Nov. 21, 2005 I've enabled the option to show the # of users watching each page. (Check down below, near the metadata stuff.) I've also added a feature that allows bureaucrats (i.e. me) to rename users without hacking through the database directly. This should help with the occasional request for account renaming. Fr. John
- Nov 28 update - Added Special:Editcount
Awards, Recognizing civic virtue on the wiki
I've been admiring Wikipedia's use of barnstars to award people who contribute their time and talent to the wiki. We should keep this in mind as we continue to grow, and figure out how to adopt something like this for our local practice.
A few links of interest here:
- w:Wikipedia:Barnstars
- http://www.usemod.com/cgi-bin/mb.pl?BarnStar - pre-dating Wikipedia
- http://www.thebarnjournal.org/stories/story018/index2.html - Images, some ideas for alternative barnstars
Don't forget the mention of barnraising on the OrthodoxWiki:Community Portal.
Talk page archives
What do y'all think about what to do when an article's Talk page becomes unwieldy? My own opinion is that we should follow Wikipedia's lead on this and create archival subpages (see my Talk page or this Wikipedia page for an example), though Joe Rodgers prefers that we instead erase Talk pages whose issues have been dealt with, that the history of the Talk page should serve as an archive.
The reason I'd like to see them archived instead of erased is that it is useful to see what relevant discussion has occurred regarding an article, which would be extremely tedious to try to track by attempting to sort through the changes in the history. Additionally, having the archives available makes it possible for precedents in our work to be searched for and made use of.
What do you think? —[[User:ASDamick|—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!)]] 19:09, 28 Jun 2005 (EDT)
- I'm the sort of person who keeps everything, so I'm voting archival before erasure. What are the marks of a talk page which needs to be archived? One person might have a different sense of "how full is too full" than another. —magda 20:23, 28 Jun 2005 (EDT)
- I agree, FWIW, that a record would be good to keep. I vote for archiving over erasing. ——Dcn. David talk contribs 17:00, 5 Jul 2005 (EDT)
Blank articles
I've been searching about for blank articles and turning them into links in existing articles, basically just to keep things tidier. It seems to me that having articles with no content at all (not even an external link) ends up skewing our results in Google and can be frustrating to a user who clicks on a supposedly filled link and finds nothing at all. I'm of the opinion that the best way to keep outlines of potential growth areas is to keep them as links until there's actual content to offer.
I can of course go and undelete the articles I've deleted if there's a consensus that we should have these blank articles, but it seems to me that a link serves just as well as a placeholder and eliminates the problems I mention above. --Rdr. Andrew 08:26, 14 Apr 2005 (CDT)
- Most of these are my fault - sorry! I think what you're saying makes sense! Fr. John
Appointing Sysops
I just wanted to share some thoughts about how I've gone about appointing sysops. Basically, I'm looking for a few things:
- Some degree of sanity as well as a healthy dose of balance and humility in content submitted and dealings with other people online.
- A demonstrated commitment to OrthodoxWiki and a desire (or at least a willingness) to take on some of the administrative burden for keeping this site in good order.
- Finally, some ecclesiastical standing (as a cleric, seminarian, presbytera, recognized Orthodox personality, etc.) is desirable but not required. This is so because it is helpful to have those who are, in one way or another, "authorities" in the Church moderating things, and, of course, public recognition helps establish the credibility and status of OrthodoxWiki.
"If anyone aspires to the office of sysop, he desires a noble task" (cf.1 Tim 3:1) - If I've overlooked you or if you have someone to nominate for sysop duties please leave a note on my user talk page. Of course, I reserve all rights in terms of appointments and terminations.
So far, I've been pretty liberal in knighting sysops -- at this point we can use all the help we can get, and it seems to me to be a good thing to empower a robust band of trustworthy members to help manage the site. Fr. John 21:58, 27 Feb 2005 (CST)
Spam Battleplan
I notice we've been getting hit by spambots lately. Sadly, I doubt this problem will resolve itself. If it stays at this level, I think we can handle it, but if it increases substantially we'll have to take some preventative measures. What I would like to be able to do is implement a captcha system for anonymous posters. I was searching over at meta.mediawiki.org today and found only a teeny bit of discussion about this. The more radical solution would be to disable edits by anonymous users altogther. I don't think it's the best solution, but at least we can know that this would be the worst case scenario.
You can rollback an article by clicking on "diffs" from the Recent Changes page and then "rollback," or clicking "history" on that page, then "compare," then "rollback." Note that anonymous edits can never be marked as "minor" so they'll always show up on "Recent changes."
If the spam bots ravage the site too seriously, we can restore backup of the entire site from the previous day or week, and then lockout anonymous users from editing.
So, let's keep on the watch against spam! Besides exhorting you, I just wanted you all to know that there is a plan and spam won't destroy us! (the crowd cheers and runs exuberantly from the stadium).
- Fr. John 18:00, 11 Feb 2005 (CST)
Update: See OrthodoxWiki:Vandalism for further discussion of this. - Fr. John 16:55, 30 October 2005 (CST)
Featured Article
What do y'all think about changing the Featured Article on a weekly basis? Also, how do we choose? Perhaps we could rotate the choice between sysops who would like to participate. --Rdr. Andrew 09:04, 8 Feb 2005 (CST)
It might be a good idea to "watch" the Template talk:Featured page. Should we each try to come up with a possibility for a featured article once a month or something (at least when we only have one left in the queue)? —magda (talk) 09:29, November 11, 2005 (CST)
Standard Welcome
Methinks a useful practice for us to begin would be to have a standard welcome that gets added to every new user's Talk page as soon as a sysop notices his registration. Included could be links to the Community Portal, the Style Manual, help pages, etc. This is what the one on Wikipedia looks like: Wikipedia:Template:Welcome
Perhaps the best way for us to do this would be to have a template with the welcome in it (Template:Welcome, perhaps, which is what Wikipedia does, too), so that we could just post {{welcome}} --~~~~ in the new user's Talk page and not have to update each Talk page every time we want to include something new in the welcome message—we could just update the template.
Thoughts? --Rdr. Andrew 12:33, 2 Feb 2005 (CST)
- Okay. Sorry to ask basic questions, but I can't find the answer elsewhere. How do you know when a new user registers? Is there a log that can be "watched?" I noticed a new name show up on the Recent changes page, but could not tell whether or not he had been lurking for a while in the background. Fr. John sent him the welcome message, so I guess he's new. And then Rdr Andrew sent the Welcome message to a User that hasn't shown up recently in Recent Changes. How did you know if he was new? --DcnDavid 22:53, 1 Mar 2005 (CST)
- What I do is scan Special:Recentchanges and Special:Listusers regularly. If I see a name I don't recognize, I send them the welcome. Eventually, I'll probably just scan Special:Recentchanges for such checking as our user base grows and my memory starts to fail. :) --Rdr. Andrew 11:09, 2 Mar 2005 (CST)
- See whether the Database table I've made at the Yahoo Group would be of any use. We could appoint a day/schedule/person to update it periodically, but this might prove useful in making sure we're "noticing" new people, not people who don't use their accounts as often. --magda 13:32, 2 Mar 2005 (CST)
What are the situations when this template should be added and removed? —magda (talk) 14:06, November 29, 2005 (CST)

text: I am so tired of hearing how TGon wants out of KC. His complaints seem pretty ridiculous. WAH I want a Super Bowl ring. Im sure he is the only one on the team that does. As I recall he complained and moaned until he got a new contract. He got it , and now wants out. The other complaint is we traded Jared Allen. Ill have to admit I was pretty mad when this happened as well, but the fact of the matter is Jared might have raised our poor sack total for the year, and possibly helped us win 1 or 2 more games. But we were deffinately more than 1 player away from making the playoffs. I love Tony he has done so much for our organization, but he needs to quit his *****in. I feel we are on the right track to becoming a playoff team. If Tony keeps complaining I say send him to Detroit, hes not the only 1 wanting a ring all the other players, coaches, and fans do too.

For Jane Page Thompson, when it comes to providing for the home, gender does not matter.
Thompson is married to Mark, a local horseback rider and trainer, and finds herself as the primary provider for her household.
Thompson's situation is one that is becoming more and more common; she is one of a growing number of women whose earnings outpace that of their husbands.
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that 28 percent of women earn more than their husbands, according to 2011 data, up from 19 percent in 1990.
In addition, a recent study conducted by the Pew Research Center shows a "record 40 percent of all households with children under the age of 18 include mothers who are either the sole or primary source of income for the family."
That number has steadily increased since 1960 when only 11 percent of women were either the sole or primary source of income.
Research also shows the rise of female breadwinners is being driven mostly by demographic changes, including higher rates of education and labor force participation. Today, more women than men hold bachelor's degrees, and women make up nearly half of the workforce.
Changes in the economy have contributed to the outcome, too. There have been big losses in manufacturing and construction, fields that traditionally employed a mostly male workforce.
The Thompsons do not have any children; however, due to some unforeseen circumstances that occurred within the first few years of their marriage, Thompson took over the financial responsibilities for their household.
"Within the first five years of our marriage, he had a heart attack, a terrible horse accident and then brain surgery," said Thompson. "Medically, more than anything, required him to take a big step back from work."
According to Thompson, it does not matter who earns more because both parties bring unique abilities to the union.
"There are some things he just naturally does better than I do," said Thompson. "My husband is much better at doing the laundry than I am."
Thompson adds that her career as a Realtor and land consultant provides her with a much-needed knowledge regarding the cost of maintaining a home.
"Being in real estate, I have a really good perspective of the value of domestic work," said Thompson. "In my profession, I know the dollar amount that cleaning the house and cleaning the yard has."
Thompson credits her studies at a single-sex boarding school and college to the way she views financial responsibilities.
"I was educated to be a female who could take care of herself," said Thompson. "My education was fiercely devoted to making me be an independent, contributing person to society other than being a mother and a wife."
Being the primary provider for the family has its difficulties, according to Thompson.
"It is a lot more stressful," said Thompson. "I always feel like I am letting him down if something goes wrong. I am in a business that is commission based, so it adds a lot more stress when you are trying to set a family budget."
Having a positive role model to look up to while growing up helped set a foundation in Thompson's life.
"My role model was my mom," said Thompson. "My mother was a single mom and she went to law school. She had this very fierce independence and did not settle for the 'I don't know.' You go research and find the answer."
The two overall contributing factors in Thompson's life were her mother and her education. The two sources helped breed independence in her life.
According to Thompson, "Whether you are a male or a female, I think being the responsible party of other people's lives in a household or having obligations to live up to is difficult."
The rise of female breadwinners bucks gender stereotypes and expected gender roles, according to Dr. Laura May, associate professor of psychology at USC Aiken.
"It is customary for the husband to be the primary breadwinner," said May.
According to May, "it may come down to the individual couple. As long as both partners in the couple are fine with this, then there are no relational issues."
A new Pew Research Center survey finds that the "public remains of two minds about the gains mothers have made in the workplace – most recognize the clear economic benefits to families, but many voice concerns about the toll that having a working mother may take on children or even marriage. About three-quarters of adults say the increasing number of women working for pay has made it harder for parents to raise children, and half say that it has made marriages harder to succeed. At the same time, two-thirds say it has made it easier for families to live comfortably," according to the center's website.
Gail Diggs, a native of Aiken, is a single mother of two daughters, Brittany and Simone. Diggs was married for 20 years when she and her husband filed for a divorce.
"You expect for a marriage to last forever and it just does not always go that way," said Diggs.
Like Thompson, Diggs' role model was also her mother. Diggs' father was killed when she was young, which left her mother to care for the children alone.
"I watched my mom do it with six of us," said Diggs. "My mom was determined that even though there were six of us, she was not going to give up. She was going to take care of us."
Watching her mother work no matter what taught Diggs an invaluable lesson.
"What I saw in my mom made a great impact on me," said Diggs. "She had the best work ethic. She worked as long as she could. She worked when she was sick and she worked when she was well, but she just believed that you should always get up and go to work."
Through the trying times, Diggs relied on a few things.
"Through it all, remembering how my mom did it and knowing if she could do it with six, I could do it with two," said Diggs.
The other comforting support came from three F's.
"I relied on three things: my faith, my family and my friends."
According to the Pew Research Center, 56 percent of working mothers say juggling work and family life is difficult for them.
Diggs found a way to try and balance work and home.
"My girls were very involved in so many extra-curricular activities when they were in school. For me to make sure that I was always there was important because I was the only parent," said Diggs. "Even if I could not stay for her practice, I would drop her off and I may go do a presentation somewhere else but I would go back to get her and I would usually catch the tail-end of practice."
If one person is the sole provider and caregiver to his or her children, Diggs believes it is "very important to be there for your kids."

The Aiken County School District will provide elementary parents in the county the opportunity to enroll their children in another county school for the 2013-14 school year through in Expanded School Choice program, available beginning Friday through Feb. 28.
They can request to transfer their children to among the 15 elementary schools currently eligible to receive students through this program, said Dr. Randy Stowe, the district's director of administration.
The parents of students already enrolled in a school through Expanded School Choice do not need to re-apply to keep their children at that school. All new applications, however, will be subject to first-come, first-serve status.
Parents don't need to provide a formal reason for the transfer request, he said. However, five elementary schools – Hammond Hill, Chukker Creek, Millbrook and Aiken – will not receive students. Those facilities are at capacity, said Peggy Trivelas, a district academic officer.
The expanded school choice program has no connection with the current efforts in the S.C. General Assembly.
The various school choice bills introduced in the legislature focus primarily on scholarships or other ways to give low-income parents to enroll their children in private schools.
The Aiken School District introduced its own Expanded School Choice several years ago. The intent at that time was to give elementary parents more public school options.
Some people may have a preference to move their children, Trivelas said.
"East Aiken (School of the Arts) is an example because it has a particular program," she said. "It could just be a convenience opportunity for them. If they're wiling to provide the transportation, we'll provide the program for them."
Expanded School Choice is available for the 2013-14 school year only through Feb. 28.
"It gives parents more flexibility, but it does place a burden on us," Stowe said. "So we do it early, as it requires additional planning."
The school district also has offered for much longer an older transfer program to assist parents with hardships. They must offer a concrete reason – health issues at home, child-care issues or instances where the parent drives by an proposed schools on the way to work.
That program does allow parents to pursue the hardship process throughout the year if a significant problem arises. However, sometimes parents who apply for Expanded School Choice may not be successful if the school currently below capacity may get too many transfers to bring it up to capacity. A parent who then seeks hardship entry may not be accepted.
Want to participate?
• Expanded School Choice elementary schools – J.D. Lever, East Aiken School of the Arts, North Aiken, Gloverville, Warrenville, Oakwood-Windsor, Belvedere, Mossy Creek, North Augusta, Clearwater, Jefferson, Greendale and Redcliffe. Also RS-M Elementary/Middle School and Busbee Corbett Elementary Middle School.
• Applications – They will be posted on the school district website, starting Friday. Parents can access them by going to acps.schoolfusion.us. There will be a direct link on the home page, as well as the option to click on "Parent" in the green column on the left side of the home page.
They can select "Guide for Parents" from the drop-down box, go to "School Choice" in the alphabetical listing and select "Expanded Choice Application."
• Sending the applications – Parents can fax them to 803-641-2636 or deliver them by mail or in person to ACPS District Office, 1000 Brookhaven Drive, Aiken, SC 29803. Schools and parents will be notified of acceptance or denial.

First, I will start with what I saw this week. This was my favorite moment.
Another photo. If you are familiar with Humans of New York, the book and website by Brandon Stanton, then I know you can relate. If not, I know you can relate.
Children dress so fabulously and so beautifully because they have not yet learned that other people are judging their choices. They wear what they like. I want to wear what I like but I feel childish. How old will I grow before I truly understand that being childish is the truest way to be?
And, one more photo.
And now, for what I heard.
1. I erroneously asked a child how she was enjoying her Kindergarten year at MSGL. She responded, "I'm not IN Kindergarten. That's why I'm HERE!"
2. "That's a small story."
3. A friend was reading me a note from his lunch box. "Look! Look it! It says I'm going to my grandma's house. And I think I'm gonna get a Spiderman hat when we go to the store."
4. "Yeah. Let's do our maps."
5. "Where's the damn lizard?"
Rest easy. That darned lizard was found.
"The only language men ever speak perfectly is the one they learn in babyhood, when no one can teach them anything!" - Maria Montessori, The Absorbent Mind
The Spinosaurus
Perhaps you like listening to and collecting phrases like I do. Our Montessori classrooms are great theaters for listening. Three, four, and five-year-olds are intensely thoughtful and they tell us so much about themselves just by talking with their friends.
This week I had the pleasure of working in the Willow, River Birch, and Canoe Birch classes and I collected as many fabulous phrases from the children as I could. The words are theirs, the spelling is mine.
On being the first to arrive... "The only time I'm not first is when Mommy brings me. Daddy is faster than Mommy."
"Frogs lay eggs, right? Butterflies lay eggs, right?"
"I had my birthday before my brother's."
"Our grandpa makes a Donald Duck sound."
While drawing dinosaurs with friends... "It's a Spinosaurus. It's the biggest carnivore on land and it's name means lizard. It reaches in the water just a little bit and snatches a fish with it's crocodile long snout."
"A drobeosaurus has toe claws and it goes 25 miles an hour."
A different dinosaur friend... "It runs 100 and 90 hours. He has a bunch of blood in his body. It's called Spinadoctora Hundreds."
"At my house I have five lipsticks. No, six."
A child was looking for a bike to ride on the playground. I asked, "I see that blue bike is available. Would you like to ride that one?" "No! he said. "I just fell off that one."
"I'm trying to sing Let it Go, in German, but it's too hard." (The children in one class burst into singing "Let it Go" from the movie Frozen at least six times in one morning:)
"Being in the sun is so much fun."
"Will you do something interesting?"
I like to listen to teachers, as well. I overheard a few of them talking about the possibility of having a couple of chickens at school and which type might be best suited to be Montessori chickens.
"They're good egg layers, the Wyandotte's. "And they're peaceful."
"I am concerned about them getting upset and flying up into the pine tree."
"There is a 100% chance of them getting upset."
Wyandotte chick
May all your chickens be peaceful as you enjoy some fun in the sun this holiday weekend.

"I think I can, I think I can, I think I can" said the little blue engine as she chugged faster and faster to the top of the mountain. And she could, of course. She did. The little blue engine saved the day by successfully pulling the stranded train full of good things for girls and boys over the mountain and into the valley where the children lay sleeping. Watty Piper's The Little Engine That Could, published in 1930, was my favorite picture book as a child and the little blue engine my favorite heroine. Sure, she was kind and a lovely shade of blue, but more importantly she was a strong female character. She was useful! She did important stuff that helped children! And she did it at the end of a long day even after all of the self-important macho engines said, "I pull the likes of you? Indeed not."
It never occured to me until preparing this post, that The Little Engine That Could, which was read to me over and over again - as many times as I wanted, by my devoted babysitter Arnetha Trent - might have been key to the formation of my beliefs about society. Perhaps it was this determined little engine that opened my eyes to the truth that not everyone wants what's best for children. After all, if three out of four engines are not willing to pull a train filled with fresh milk, veggies, toys, and candy (just enough for an after-dinner treat, mind you) over the mountain to the children in the valley? Something's not right in the world. Four-year-old girls notice things like that.
I use this newly discovered self-knowledge as a metaphor because our school, the Montessori School of Greater Lafayette (MSGL), has been called by some, "The Little School That Could." We are small and we operate on a tight budget, but do a lot with what we have. We offer 10 different programs for over 200 children, ages one to nine years, and we make it all happen in seven classrooms on our five-acre campus. We are a non-profit, parent-owned school which means when something needs to be done, whether it's adding an elementary program or building a new sand box, the families and staff work together to make it happen. This willingness to collaborate and create the best possible environment for children is the source of our strength. It's why we are known as the scrappy little school that's brought respect, independence, and a love of learning to the girls and boys of the Wabash Valley for over 42 years.
Clearly, I'm proud of our little Montessori school. It's been my extended family since my daughter started preschool here in 1998. And it has chugged its way up more than a few metaphorical mountains. But I'm especially proud today as I share news that not only is MSGL still making a difference in the lives of its families, it's poised to make a difference in the lives of families across the country. Our accrediting organization, the American Montessori Society (AMS), delivered three such helpings of good news this week. First we learned that we were featured in the quarterly publication Montessori Life for our parent development program, "Bringing Montessori Home." This event took place in January and will be offered again this year. You can read it here:
Then we learned that we were selected to present "Bringing Montessori Home" at the AMS National Conference in March. All of MSGL's lead teachers will be traveling to Chicago, March 11 - 13th, 2016, to take part in this presentation to other Montessori teachers, administrators, and parents from all over the United States. You can read more about the conference here:
Finally, the AMS Board of Directors officially approved our school reaccreditation this week. The two-year reaccreditation process involved a lengthy self-study of our educational philosophy and practices, business practices, and plans for growth and improvement. An on-site team visited the school in March to verify that MSGL's practices are in-line with the AMS standards and our own self-study documentation. The team reported that their visit to MSGL was the most organized they have experienced mostly because of the work of our own Lena Atkinson, Office Manager and Parent/Infant Teacher. Lena organized all of the school's documents online so the reaccreditation team could simply follow links to view documents instead of sorting through file cabinets. Now, Lena has been asked to host a webinar to show other schools how she used tech to improve the tedious reaccreditation process. Reaccreditation with AMS occurs every seven years. Congratulations to the staff, board, and families who have been working toward reaccreditation since August, 2013 and to all future MSGL families who will benefit from it! You can read more about the value of the AMS accreditation process here:
So, it's been a big week and we are pleased with the school's good work. We are excited that others in the Montessori community appreciate that good things can come in small, scrappy packages. But I can't say we are surprised by the news. Just like my favorite little blue engine, we always thought we could.
Thanks for reading, Heather
A car full of goodies is ready to be delivered to a local family sponsored by MSGL families.
A Lafayette mom got a big surprise Thursday night when Montessori School of Greater Lafayette (MSGL) teacher, Kelly Sallee, and her husband Randy delivered a car full of holiday cheer to her front door. Evelyn (not her real name), a 33-year-old mother of four who was recently diagnosed with cancer, knew the Sallees were bringing dinner and a few surprises for her older children, but she wasn't expecting armfuls of gifts and personal items for her 10-month-old baby, her husband, and even herself.
"She knew nothing about this," Sallee said of the mom's reaction. "She said she feels so grateful and blessed."
After being diagnosed with cancer in the fall and going through two surgeries, Evelyn worried that she and her husband would not be able to give their children a happy Christmas. Her husband works full-time and also helps her get to her treatments in Indianapolis every week. The travel expense and taking time away from work has made it difficult for the family to pay their rent and other bills, so Christmas presents were out of the question. When Evelyn reached out to local assistance groups in early December, she learned she had missed the deadline to apply. So she turned to a local Facebook group to see if anyone knew of an organization that could help her give her children just a little something to look forward to on Christmas morning, and that's where Kelly found her.
A basket of items just for mom.
"I called two local agencies to see if they knew of a family that my family could sponsor for the holidays but they didn't respond," Kelly said. "So I thought, I'm going to go find my own family."
When she saw Evelyn's post on Facebook, she sent her a message and they started talking. Kelly was moved by the young mom's situation and decided this was a family that could really use some help. When she shared the young family's story with the families of her Willow preprimary class at MSGL, they were eager to help. Teachers and families from other classes and Kelly's mom and sister also joined in, and that's when the fun really started.
Taylor and Kelly preparing to wrap packages.
"I am so overwhelmed with the great response," Kelly said. "I received so many gift cards in my mailbox and there were new items in the collection box every day. I am thankful for the classroom families and teachers who have contributed to this cause."
The box Kelly put in the hallway to collect items for the children was soon overflowing and the items had to be stored in the school's conference room. Although Evelyn was only hoping to have a few items for her 6, 8, and 11-year-old children, the outpouring of love from the MSGL community included items for the baby, a gift card for dad, and a basket filled with lotion, fuzzy socks, and candles to pamper mom. The family also received gift cards for gas to help with driving back and forth to Indianapolis for Evelyn's treatments. Classroom parents and Kelly's mother and sister wrapped all of the gifts and made stockings personalized with each child's name.
MSGL families sponsored a local family that could use a little extra love this year.
The family celebrates Christmas, so families donated gifts and stockings.
On Thursday, Kelly and Randy packed up the gifts, picked up pizzas for the family's dinner, and delivered them to their home. The children had to stay in their rooms until everything was hidden because mom and dad want the gifts to be a surprise on Christmas morning. Evelyn had just returned from having a port implanted for chemotherapy that day and was not feeling well, but she thanked the Sallees over and over again for everything they had done. She was especially touched by the handmade cards made by the MSGL children.
Cards made by the children of Willow class.
"She said she was surprised that the kids had made the cards just for them," Kelly said. "And she hung them up with all of her other Christmas cards."
Kelly hopes the MSGL family can reach out to a local family again next year and she intends to start planning in the fall.
"Not only did it bring so much joy to my family and myself to be able to help this sweet family this holiday season, but it was equally priceless to see how well-received this endeavor was at Montessori. I signed one of the cards on behalf of the school so that the family knew our community came together to make a magical morning for this very deserving family."
Somdatta and Felicia of the Canoe Birch Class and Cathy and Mary of the All-Day Program invited the children to tell who and what they are thankful for and then wrote their answers on leaves. Each class has a paper tree by the door displaying the children's gratitude. As this Thanksgiving Day draws to a close I thought it would be nice to share the gratitude of these 3, 4, and 5-year-olds with all of you.
Enjoy your holiday weekend!
..and this was its steeple.
When we remodeled the former Calvary Baptist Church in 2000-2001 to become our Montessori school, we had to replace a few fixtures. The steeple was detached from the roof and lowered by crane to the parking lot below.
What do you do with a second-hand steeple? We gave it to a church down the road.
The demolition crew also removed the fiberglas baptistry by cutting it into pieces. All of the beautiful wood pews were sold. You can see one being used today in the school office. The colored windows were eventually replaced with clear glass.
This is what Building B looks like today.
Have a great Wednesday!
