The Tennessee basketball program's 2014 signing class grew to three players Thursday, as head coach Donnie Tyndall announced that Detrick Mostella (pronounced: DEE-trick moss-TELL-uh) has signed a National Letter of Intent to attend UT.
A 6-3, 170-point combo guard from Decatur, Ala., Mostella plans to enroll this summer. He joins previous UT spring signees Jabari McGhee and Kevin Punter.
"Detrick is an explosive athlete who can make plays off the dribble and create opportunities for his teammates," Tyndall said. "He is another versatile, long, athletic perimeter player who fits perfectly in our system and style of play. We're very excited to add this high character young man to our Tennessee basketball family."
Considered a four-star prospect by nearly every major recruiting service, Mostella was rated by 247Sports as the nation's No. 43 overall prospect in the class of 2013.
Mostella, who will be a freshman next season with four years of eligibility, initially signed with Oklahoma State in November 2012 prior to his senior season.
He transferred to La Lumiere School in La Porte, Ind., for his final year of high school, and he graduated from La Lumiere in 2013.
Mostella eventually was granted a release from his Oklahoma State NLI, and he spent the 2013-14 academic year at Notre Dame Preparatory School in Fitchburg, Mass, where he was coached by Ryan Hurd. Recently departed Vols point guard Antonio Barton, who completed his eligibility last season, also is a product of Notre Dame Prep.
From his freshman through junior year, Mostella attended Austin High School in Decatur, Ala. As a junior, he earned All-State honors from the Alabama Sports Writers Association after averaging 16.4 points per game and leading Austin to the Class 6A Northwest Regional final.
As a sophomore at AHS, Mostella averaged 18.0 points and 4.0 rebounds per game and was named The Decatur Daily's 4A-6A Player of the Year.

Student makes final argument sans teammate, wins in-house mock trial competition
DETROIT (March 21, 2011) - Wayne State University Law School's Winter 2011 Donald E. Barris Student Trial Advocacy Program (Mock Trial) in-house competition was held March 12 in the Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium. The final round featured Elisa Wyatt and Dan Kosmowski representing the plaintiff as they battled for the championship title against defendant representatives Jyarland Daniels Jones and Ayana Duncan.
Daniels Jones (pictured at right) advanced to compete by herself when her teammate could not be in attendance. She presented the defense case entirely on her own and won the competition.
Presiding judges included: Kiana Franulic, an attorney with the Law Offices of Kiana Franulic in Ann Arbor, Mich.; Patricia Carey, an attorney with Lakeshore Legal Aid; and Ross Brunetti and Jamil Khuja, both assistant Wayne County prosecutors.
The Student Trial Advocacy Program was founded in 1985 to train law students in trial courtroom advocacy. In a simulated courtroom setting, a student and a partner present one civil and one criminal trial over the course of the fall and winter semesters. This student-run program is open to upperclass students.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. – No. 1 Syracuse captured its second consecutive outright BIG EAST Championship on Saturday, May 7 with a 20-6 win against St. John's (4-10, 2-4) in the regular-season finale for both teams at the Carrier Dome. The Orange received goals from 15 different players in the victory and the team's 20 goals marked a season high.
The Orange concludes the regular season with a 14-1 overall record and an undefeated 6-0 mark in the BIG EAST. The team's 14 regular-season wins are the most for the program since 1949 when it also went 14-1 (no playoffs). In addition, the Orange remained undefeated (12-0) all-time in BIG EAST Conference play.
"All in all, it was a good day for the Orange," head coach John Desko said. "A lot of guys got in the game. Some seniors got in the game that haven't had a chance to play this year or they've played very little. Some of them scored, so it was a nice way to go out and a good way to finish the regular season."
Junior Tommy Palasek paced the SU offense with four points (2g, 2a) and classmate Collin Donahue equaled his career high with three points (1g, 2a). Seniors Joel White, Stephen Keogh, sophomore JoJo Marasco and rookie Derek Maltz had two goals apiece.
For White, it was the third two-goal game of his career and his second against the Red Storm. He also had a pair of goals in last year's 15-7 win at St. John's.
It was fitting then that White, playing in his final regular-season home game, got the Orange on the board 1:52 into the contest, scoring in transition on SU's first shot of the game. An unassisted goal by the Red Storm's Kevin Cernuto tied it with 12:24 left in the first quarter, but it was all Orange after that. Syracuse tallied the next four goals of the game, including a pretty give-and-go from Palasek to junior Kevin Drew, to pull in front by four, 5-1.
Overall, the Orange led 7-2 after the first quarter, and withstood a 3-0 run by St. John's at the start of the second period to gain an 11-5 halftime advantage.
Included in the Orange's second-quarter scoring was its first man-down goal of the year. With senior Tim Harder in the penalty box for unnecessary roughness, the Red Storm turned the ball over and Donahue found Marasco alone in front of the St. John's cage for an easy goal that pushed the margin to 9-5.
A goal by Kieran McArdle at the start of the third quarter brought the Red Storm within five, 11-6. However, McArdle's tally proved to be St. John's last of the day. The Orange scored the game's final nine goals, including seven in the fourth quarter, to cruise to victory.
Syracuse outshot the Red Storm, 50-26. The hosts also held a 41-34 advantage in ground balls and helped force 24 St. John's turnovers. Senior defenseman John Lade led the Syracuse defensive effort with five ground balls and four caused turnovers.
Faceoffs were the one area where St. John's got the better of the hosts. The Red Storm's Jordan Rothman won 16-of-28 draws and picked up a game-best eight ground balls. However, St. John's wasn't able to take advantage of the extra possessions Rothman helped generate.
Cernuto finished with team-best two goals for the Red Storm. Dillon Ayers also notched two points for St. John's, dishing out a pair of assists.
Syracuse will learn its first-round NCAA Tournament opponent on Sunday, May 8 when the 16-team tournament field is announced. The bracket for this year's men's lacrosse championship will be revealed live at 9 p.m. on ESPNU.
Game Notes: Fifteen members of the Orange program, including 14 players, were recognized prior to the game as part of Senior Day … Already the winningest class in school history, SU's 2011 seniors improved to 59-7 with Saturday's victory … Keogh now has 132 goals, tied with Mike Leveille for ninth on the program's career goals list … The Orange's 11 first-half goals were its most in one half of play this season … Drew, redshirt freshman Stefan Carpentieri and true freshmen Matt Harris and Pat Powderly were all credited with their first career assists in the game … Harris and Drew both added goals to register the first multi-point games of their careers … Junior Joe Giarrusso, who participated in Saturday's Senior Day festivities, made his Orange debut and scored with one second left in the contest.

I guess it could help in a situation like this, but we don't have any formal beekeeping inspection service here in Arizona.
even if its only a $25 permit, It would still tick me off because they seem to just be doing this to you alone, I would fight it also, then I would look for a sneaky neighbor so I knew to to keep a eye on, but in the end it's only 25 bucks so don't let the lawyer get his hands in your pocket also. I would go to the department that wants you to to pay for this permit and talk to the top dog, and get him to explain whats going on, he might not be able to and fix it for you, Good Luck
5. Upon determination by a zoning inspector that a property owner is not in compliance with the zoning standards for beekeeping, the Pima County health department shall be notified. If the same property owner is determined to be keeping a colony or colonies deemed a nuisance or hazard by the health department, the course of action shall be determined by the health inspector in cooperation with the zoning inspector.

The Art of Agile Development contains practical guidance for anyone considering or applying agile development for building valuable software. Plenty of books describe what agile development is or why it helps software projects succeed, but very few combine information for developers, managers, testers, and customers into a single package that they can apply directly.
This book provides no-nonsense advice on agile planning, development, delivery, and management taken from the authors' many years of experience with Extreme Programming (XP). You get a gestalt view of the agile development process, including comprehensive guidance for non-technical readers and hands-on technical practices for developers and testers.
The Art of Agile Development gives you clear answers to questions such as:
James Shore has been leading teams in Agile development since 1999. A team member on that first project introduced him Ward Cunningham's wiki, where they were talking about a crazy idea called Extreme Programming. Despite the ridiculous name, James tried Extreme Programming on his next project and discovered that it worked far better than it sounded. James has been speaking, teaching, and writing about Agile methods ever since. Today, he continues to lead Agile teams using the best ideas from Scrum, Extreme Programming, and Lean. James has contributed a large number of projects and ideas to the Agile community. He authored the first test-driven development framework for .NET web programming and coordinated the development of Ward Cunningham's Fit, the first major acceptance-testing tool. In 2005, the Agile Alliance recognized James with their highest honor, the Gordon Pask Award for Contributions to Agile Practice. James is a featured speaker at conferences around the world. He may be found online at jamesshore.com.

Good addition to the library
By kim
from Undisclosed
Having not been exposed to Agile, I found "The Art of Agile Development" a very good read. Shore and Warden described Agile practices in a way that was easy to read and more entertaining than I expected (compared to most of the technical books that I read). I believe they presented the practices very well. They also had answers and responses to my "but what about.." thoughts in the Questions and Contraindications section for each practice. I also appreciate the extensive list of References for further knowledge and reading.

An excellent book for Agile art
By Read Sense
As a new comer learning what Agile Development is about, I found this book fabulous and easy to read. Leading as if the reader were a new hirer to a development group practicing Agile, it draws how the group's daily life might be in Part I. Then, the practices are addressed in details in Part II. Part III summarizes Agile values and principles into five themes explained with in practice advises and beyond practices stories from experience. The book is organized well with in depth discussion and lots of references on subjects such as Iteration, Use Story, Test Driven Development, Pair Programming, Technical Debt and etc. A thoughtfully written book that reveals and builds step by step the values of Agility with practicability shared.As a software developer, the explanation of "software inventory" really shakes me awake. It appears that this book is written from a view of a product manager who knows a lot about the roles each player contributes to a successful product development. "Do this," said in Part I. "Here is what we are trying to achieve and why," said in Part II. And, "These are the values of Agile and Part I and Part II are not hard wired rules", emphasized in Part III which is written in a way that it could be used to argue for the support from the top management.
Great Reference for Agile Teams
By Mark Ridlehuber
I recently read The Art of Agile Development as part of an Agile book discussion group. I would recommend it to anyone active in Agile software development or anyone simply thinking about adopting XP with Scrum.What were the biggest positive surprises found in reading the book?Team member role ratios - The authors suggest as a rule of thumb to start with 2 on-site customers (including the product manager) for every 3 programers. He makes a very good point that if your programmers are your constraint, then it is very important to not bottle neck their efforts with wait time on "how should the software work" questions. There are also considerations of "waste" introduced by having to collect this information up front in documentation rather than relying on a back and forth discussion as needed.Risk Management - The authors have pulled together the analysis of project release data from various sources and provide some ways to intellegently update initial release plan estimates to arrive at a risk adjusted release date. Most Agile references I am familiar with resist making this type of commitment and instead focus on changing the company culture to not require the commitment until you have enough data on the team velocity. While I believe the latter is MUCH more desireable, the authors at least recognize that this is not possible in some corporate cultures.From the Agile newbie to the seasoned consultant, The Art of Agile Development offers plenty of fresh examples along with the underlying principles to help the reader master the art of successful software development.
Cookbook on Agile
By George Romaniuk
My encounter with agile took place in 2004 when my company wanted to formalize the entire product development process. We took this opportunity to learn more about agile and apply it our software development.I read few short articles and a book about agile but there was not enough practical information to convince us that we will be safe embracing agile methodology.I learned about this book quite recently from practitioners of agile, read the book and also participated in a very interesting discussion club.The title of this book is in my opinion little misleading _ I was expecting to read about some esoteric topics related to agile software development but to my great surprise I found almost a "Manual" or a "Handbook" of agile software development. The art is being taught in a very well defined environment, little too idealized in my opinion but with clear boundaries and good instructions what to do in case your situation is outside of this environment. I read the book from page one in natural page order and noticed that the book was getting more interesting as I was progressing. There is a great body of down to earth instructions for beginners, not only related to pure software development but also relevant to setting up the team in your company's environment. The book also offers good discussion of product requirements, the role and approach to testing and to some extent - making decisions regarding software architecture.The book has a phenomenal bibliography and inspired many thoughts about the nature of software development and similarities between software development and industrial mass production environmentI am sure that the book is not going to end the writing career of the authors and a follow-up will be available soon, discussing issues like rewards and compensation in companies practicing agile methodology.
Easy read, VERY practical, great how-to book
By Cindy Margules
As a complete novice to Agile, this was my first book. Although there were a few areas that I had to reread for comprehension - it is written in such a way as to provide a complete foundation of understanding, both for the novice and the expert. The book utilizes not only the practical "how to" but also deals with the different behaviors displayed and how to manage those - which is typically the `sticky point' in any change management effort. As a 15-year project management veteran, the book was artfully crafted as it employs real world examples, states the relationships between the various principles of XP - and why they are all important, and submits strong cases of why partial implementations fail, and even lists additional alternatives to the typical implementation. I found the book doesn't sell "XP", but does make a solid case for the value systems that XP supports. It is written in a very easy to read format with etudes, approach, and questions, and has constant cross-references within the book and to outside sources which is extraordinarily helpful. There is a bit of reiteration which can be irritating to some, but also can be reinforcing as it is done in various styles. Overall, a must have for the Agile developer.
A powerful book.
By P Eastwood
The Art of Agile Development is a very powerful book. To people like myself who are approaching Agile for the first time it is a compelling and energizing read, completely capturing the spirit of Agile as well as carefully explaining the mechanisms of XP. It is a book that can be used as a reference for experienced practitioners of XP, but I think even those who have read Beck and others will want to read it from cover to cover. There are a lot of "good sense" aspects to many of the practices of XP and progressing through the first chapters, the reader quickly understands the simplicity and workings of each one of them. But keep reading! The book is full of enlightening moments as the author focuses in on the ties that bind the practices together, explaining the practices' workings and their sustaining relationships using real world examples.I highly recommend this book to anyone involved in building technical teams inside or outside of software development.
Recommended Reading
By David Wight
The Art of Agile Development is one of a handful of books that should be read by any serious practitioner of agile software development. It complements my other favorite books, with an emphasis on practical implementation of agile practices and the issues and complications that inevitably arise. Although the book focuses on practices derived from XP (eXtreme Programming), I found it to be relevant and applicable to agile development in general, and recommend it to other ScrumMasters and agile proponents. It provides clear explanations, rationales and practical examples of concepts I've studied and practiced for years, but still struggle to master.The authors define the scope and organization of the book in the Preface and then deliver exactly what they promise in a clear and concise way. Part 1 includes a brief but effective summary of agile principles and of XP concepts and practices. I especially liked their opening section describing how an agile approach aligns with success.After pointing out that agile is no silver bullet and that implementation can be a challenge, the authors discuss the specifics of introducing XP into an organization and present a concrete implementation as a starting point. In Part 2, they present a set of 37 practices that, taken together, form a practical approach for getting started. Their descriptions include practical advice, specific suggestions and potential pitfalls.Part 3 is intended to provide guidance to experienced agile practitioners as they develop and hone agile practices to fit their specific circumstances. There are really no new ideas presented, but it is a succinct and well organized presentation of values, principals and practices that are critical to successful implementation of any agile methodology. The book concludes with an excellent bibliography.
The Agile Fabric, Clearly Explained
By Scott Killen
"The Art of Agile Development" is more than good book; it is also an important book. It weaves many agile concepts in to a thoughtful fabric and extends the body of knowledge in practical ways. Structurally, the book is divided into three parts; an introductory section, a practices section and a section on mastery. Each part is wholly contained and may be read independently of the others. Although XP is the centerpiece of discussion, clearly Scrum and Lean also strongly influenced content. There is so much to like about this book that a short review cannot do justice. But I do want to highlight sections of particular value. To understand the maturity of your agile team, skip the Nokia test and head for the section entitled "Assess Your Agility". Though the test does lean towards measuring XP maturity, each question is carefully crafted to be a point of introspection for thoughtful readers. The sections on risk and slack are the clearest, most compelling, descriptions I've ever read of the how and why of risk planning and mitigation in an agile project. If you've had difficulty with release planning because of inconsistent velocities, then Shore and Warden open their toolbox for you. The case for pair programming, perhaps the most controversial of all XP practices, is built brick by brick into a foundational practice. I've not seen such an airtight argument before. The section on refactoring, including a step-by-step walkthrough, opened my eyes. I thought I understood refactoring until I read this masterful presentation. Many people confuse the terms "value" and "principle"; incorrectly using them interchangeably. In the mastery section, the authors distinguish the two, and explain how fundamental values lead to the adoption of guiding principles and then to the implementation of tangible practices. Shore and Warden make a valuable contribution to agile literature with this book. I'm making a list of people I work with that need to read it.
By Krzysztof Satola
The Art of Agile Development written by James Shore and Shane Warden is about managing a successful eXtreme Programming (XP) team. It reveals many possible ways of leading an agile team through a software project. The book is full of examples, explanations, tips and good practices. Great deal of issues covered in this book would make it hard to read but the authors made a tremendous work organizing the book's contents. There are cross-links between chapters and topics which help to find solutions to problems. Each topic has uniform structure consisting of subtopics, questions, results, contraindications, alternatives and further reading which helps a lot in finding answers and making decisions during an agile project. I was astonished how much information can be packed on only 400 pages. That is amazing.Parts I and II of this book contain author's approach to XP. Part I helps to get started with eXtreme Programming and Part II provides detailed guidance for each of XP's practices. Part III is full of ideas that can help to understand XP and agile development more deeply.I have read this book because I had heard that it is worth reading. I work as a software architect and project manager and I found this book very valuable. It is especially useful for anyone who is, will be or wants to be part of an agile team. This also includes programmers, domain experts, testers, project and product managers, designers and business analysts. It may also be handy for aware customers. If you have anything in common with agile development you should read this book.

Hey, I wanna offer 1 person an envelope of magazine cutouts to anywhere in the world from Australia. Let's get this group happening again!
Offer ends end of December 2015. Inbox me your details.
Would anyone be up for doing a trade? I think it would be really cool to fill up a small envelope with lots of different random paper and stuff of that sort and doing sort of a blind trade! If anyone is interested, send me a message and we'll get that started.
Hi everyone! I'm new to the Zine world and I would love to start making my own pretty soon. I'm getting the hang of it all, but I would appreciate it if anyone has any extra materials they wouldn't mind sending me to help me get started? If that's okay to ask for?
Email me or comment on my page please: email@example.com
i also have my own zine ---about 20pages of writings & drawings. some in English and some in Malay Language. I'm from Malaysia. wanna trade? :D
tweet me @cikrunrun
I'll send someone a roll of colored "silk tape" from Philly China town if they send me something cool in return. This is a neat tape, like standard scotch tape but not as sticky (though it will hold paper to paper fine.) and it's colored! I only have one set for now, left from a visit there last year, so I'm only trading one single roll at this point, but if people are interested I can buy more on my next visit.

Wayne Law welcomes Mark Denbeaux for lecture on terrorism suspect rights
DETROIT (Sept. 21, 2010) — The Wayne State University Law School Program for International Legal Studies and the International Law Students Association are pleased to host a lecture by Mark Denbeaux, professor and director of the Seton Hall Law School Center for Policy and Research, at 12:15-1:30 p.m. on Oct. 6, 2010, in the Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium. Denbeaux's lecture is titled "Miranda rights for terrorism suspects?"
"Mark Denbeaux is one of the nation's leading commentators on the detention and treatment of terrorism suspects," said Gregory Fox, Wayne Law professor and director of the Program for International Legal Studies. "The question of whether those suspects should be given all the rights normally accorded criminal defendants – most importantly Miranda warnings – is one of the most volatile issues in debate over the treatment of terrorism detainees."
The Seton Hall Law School professor is perhaps best known for co-authoring an internationally recognized series of reports on the Guantanamo Bay detention camp. The series began with the "Report on Guantanamo detainees: A profile of 517 detainees through analysis of Department of Defense data," which has been followed by four additional studies since 2006. The reports refute many government claims about the detainees, revealing, for example, that 92 percent of the original prisoners had not been al-Qaida fighters and only 5 percent had been captured by the United States. Denbeaux has also represented several detainees in habeas corpus proceedings before federal courts.
Denbeaux previously served as a senior litigation attorney for Community Action for Legal Services of New York City, and also has chaired the Board of New York City Legal Services Program. He has served on the Seton Hall faculty since 1972.
The event is free and open to the public, and lunch will be provided. Parking is available for $4.25 in Structure #1 across from the Law School on West Palmer Street in Detroit. For directions to the Law School or to view a campus map, visit campusmap.wayne.edu/location/LAW.

Program for International Legal Studies
Wayne Law created the Program for International Legal Studies in recognition of the breadth of the faculty's international engagements and expertise and the fact that nearly all aspects of law now have an international component. From regulation of cross-border financial transactions to controlling pollution that recognizes no boundaries to human rights treaties that regulate how governments treat their citizens, law is now an interconnected global phenomenon.
The program coordinates all activities at Wayne Law related to international law. These activities include hosting the Speaker Series, sponsoring conferences and symposia featuring leading international scholars and practitioners, promoting research on international and comparative law topics, and providing important resources for Wayne Law students, alumni and friends interested in international law.
The program capitalizes on the Law School's world-renowned faculty members, who teach and write on a wide variety of international legal issues.

Posted by Richard Fichera on the Infrastructure & Operations Professionals Blog on December 17, 2010
I just spent some time talking to ScaleMP, an interesting niche player that provides a server virtualization solution. What is interesting about ScaleMP is that rather than splitting a single physical server into multiple VMs, they are the only successful offering (to the best of my knowledge) that allows I&O groups to scale up a collection of smaller servers to work as a larger SMP.
Others have tried and failed to deliver this kind of solution, but ScaleMP seems to have actually succeeded, with a claimed 200 customers and expectations of somewhere between 250 and 300 next year.
Their vSMP product comes in two flavors, one that allows a cluster of machines to look like a single system for purposes of management and maintenance while still running as independent cluster nodes, and one that glues the member systems together to appear as a single monolithic SMP.
Does it work? I haven't been able to verify their claims with actual customers, but they have been selling for about five years, claim over 200 accounts, with a couple of dozen publicly referenced. All in all, probably too elaborate a front to maintain if there was really nothing there. The background of the principals and the technical details they were willing to share convinced me that they have a deep understanding of the low-level memory management, prefectching, and caching that would be needed to make a collection of systems function effectively as a single system image. Their smaller scale benchmarks displayed good scalability in the range of 4 – 8 systems, well short of their theoretical limits.
My quick take is that the software works, and bears investigation if you have an application that:

My initial thought is actually, why? It's not like you can really see the lever or the bit of color when the gun is in the ready or firing position. 1911 shooters have gotten by for almost a century without colors on their guns. The safety lever should be used tactilely rather than visually.
Red generally means "fire," so I am not sure I'd use that to indicate "safe." I suppose you could use a dot of model paint if you really must add colors to the pistol.

Arsène Wenger believes Arsenal have drawn so few games in the league this season because their predicament meant winning was the only option.
Wenger's side have produced just four stalemates in the Premier League this term, a figure matched only by league leaders Manchester United.
After a difficult start to the campaign, Wenger says draws were simply never good enough.
"Maybe we were always in a position from the start onwards where a draw was a bad result because we were very deep in the table," he told Arsenal Player.
"From there on we were only in a position where winning was good enough for us and that might be a subconscious explanation."

It looks like the tongues on those dead emerging bees are sticking out. Isn't that a sign of pesticide poisoning?
Quote from: Moonshae on October 22, 2007, 08:01:00 AMIt looks like the tongues on those dead emerging bees are sticking out. Isn't that a sign of pesticide poisoning?Could be a sign of a dearth.Sincerely,Brendhan
Did you have honey supers on at any time and remove them?
Is there any sign of robbing?
Could be a sign of a dearth.
2. There has been a dearth in your area for the last month or more.
It is time to push the sugar syrup to them if you want to keep them alive through the winter.
I'd feed them until they have some stores or winter sets in.
Yes you need to feed them as much as possible. Get that feed on, now!
check for mites the dead bees with there tongues sticking out are a sign of PMS parasitic mite syndrome.it is starting the downward spiral of crashing.even if mite counts are low remember it is the viruses that they vector. what did you treat with and what time of the year did you treat. RDY-B
did you see any deformed wings? RDY-B
Most of the viruses transmit vertically through the queen to the brood i would not be surprised at this point if there is no queen in the colony -if there is a queen -I believe this colony will have expired by Xmas RDY-B

Hi Lucy,
I need your immediate advice because I am in an urgent situation. My department has been assigned to work on a project of teaching Toefl ITP to non-English majors. Let me tell you first about my students. They are in their first and second year at College and specialized in Information technology. At the moment we have been teaching them General English and English for IT. Now the Director of the College would like his students to score at least 480 on Toefl ITP, which he think will be useful for students whey graduate and work in the field of IT. So our job is really hard. For second year student we have the duration of two terms (4 classes per week for Term 1, and 5 classes per week for term 2 with 1o weeks per term 1 and 15 weeks per term 2)to reach the objective of 480. For 1st year students we have more time to plan because they have one more term with 2 classes per week and there are a total of 15 weeks.
regarding the students' level, some groups are quite strong while some are very weak.
At the moment we are having lots of difficulties deciding what to teach and how to teach. We also have problems with material selection because there are now too much material in this area. We are having to devise a detailed plan for each week (what skills will be covered, and how much time is enough for each skill like listening, reading, grammar. We also want to ask Students to do a lot of work because we have very little time and self-study for exams like this is very important. So I'd like to hear your ideas on this issue. What approaches are suitable for strong groups and what suitable for weaker ones? What plan should we follow? what about homework (we think students should read and listen a lot at home because extensive listening and reading will go a long way in improving students' level of English in general but we don't know how to control what they do at home), what need to be taken into consideration in teaching for exams like this. oh, by the way, Do you think we should speak English or use Students' native language when teaching and in this case it's vietnamese
I look forward to your reply
Many thanks

It's amazing the transformation that can be made with a touch of makeup and new clothes.
The 12 acts who've made it through to the X Factor finals were this week given star treatment ahead of the live shows, which will kick off on Saturday.
After the sartorial experts had sprinkled their magic style dust, the key theme seemed to be that the hopefuls now look more polished and less... how can we say it... ordinary?Reuse content

Hi guys. So I have got my beautifully painted, awesomely crafted FPH. What methods would members recommend to get the best fit for trooping?
Foam padding? Hard hat liner? Should I do I need a strap?
All comments would be good. I want to troop this the first week of November, so one last push and I should be there!

Bacary Sagna is back in full training with the Arsenal squad following his successful rehabilitation from a fibular fracture suffered in October.
His return, a little ahead of schedule, is a boost for Arsène Wenger ahead of the FA Cup tie with Aston Villa on Sunday.
"Bacary is back in full training," said the manager. "Many players who are not specialist right-backs have been playing in this position so we are relieved to have him back."
Along with Thierry Henry, Mikel Arteta, Sagna will have a fitness test to determine his involvement this weekend. Francis Coquelin is definitely available while Kieran Gibbs is expected to start full training early next week.
"At the moment, many players are on their way back," said Wenger. "I'll have to look at them and see how much of a gamble I can take because we play again on Wednesday. Gibbs will certainly not be involved at all on Sunday, but the others could be involved. That will be decided before the game."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Stacey Cole's Nature Talks: Of all wild bird songs, the fox sparrow's sound is the 'sweetest'

Discussion in 'Other Hoops Talk' started by LA Dre, Nov 28, 2012.
thx you should've ordered lifterboy to do it.
Valiant comeback by the Wolverines after being down 21 points in the first half, but after tying the game at 46 with about 3 mins left, they opted for 3 pt jump shots instead o going inside like the Buckeyes did. No one expected Michigan to comeback and win the game after being blown out in first ten minutes and down 27-6, but to make it all the way back and then try to win on threes was poor execution in IMO . Even when they were down 52-50 with less than 20 seconds I would gone for two and possible and 1 as opposed to the dagger hope I make it three.... Possible # 1 ranking goes by the wayside they probably drop to 5 or 6 unless the voters reward them for making a good comeback.
they should stay #2 OS should rise Beeline is too smart to show his hand now make unsticky damn
Jinx! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
As expected, the Wolverines drop to 5 as both the coaches and writers feel that despite the big comeback, they should have never fallen that far behind if they were a top 2 team. Next up is # 9 Minnesota...also on the road, so there could be two losses before the next rankings come out next Monday. However a win there and they should move ahead of Kansas unless they have two impressive wins over Baylor and Texas this week.

Not!!! Sent by smoke signal using Pendleton blanket
Six Big Ten teams in the top 25. This B1G conference season is just going to be a knock-down slugfest. No one will survive.
I'm guessing 3 in the final 4..................
As long as the tournament committee spreads them among each region, they should get two in...
Ranking decided by voting where stuff like how big of a comeback the losing team did matter - what a system...
That is just Dre's speculation. The fact is they lost, so they drop 3 or 4 spots. The point differential, comeback, etc. didn't matter. They lost, so they drop.
Now that the rankings have commence to not favor us the rankings are garbage as usual. Please tell me this ranking is a sophisticated as the BCS.
Doesn't matter. It's all about the tournament. 3 #8 seeds have played in the Championship game and 1 won the whole thing. 2 years ago, it was the 3, 4, 8, and 11 seeds that met in the final four.
To me, sophistication is a function of simplicity.
To me, simplicity is a function of sophistication.
Don't poop where you eat. not sophisticated. ...simple

UPDATE: El Paso County Commissioners approve $152 million bond issuance
Commissioners approve bonds in 3-to-1 vote
EL PASO, Texas - UPDATE April 8, 2013 6:38 p.m.
El Paso County Commissioners approved $152 million worth of bonds on Monday by a vote of 3-to-1.
The bonds will help University Medical Center build new clinics, and renovate their current buildings.
Commissioner Dan Haggerty didn't vote. He left the meeting after more than seven hours of discussion. Before leaving he had said he was "beat." Haggerty recently began a new chemotherapy regiment.
Commissioner Carlos Leon represented the "swing" vote that allowed UMC to obtain the money.
Leon told ABC-7 that he was prepared to vote 'no.' He also requested to postpone the vote, instead when pressed for a vote he voted to approve the bond sale.
UMC originally requested $162 million in a bond issuance, that number was amended on Monday to offset a change in land cost.
It's a packed house in El Paso County Commissioners Court.
University of Medical Center is making a pitch for commissioners to approve $162 million in bonds that would allow four clinics to be built throughout El Paso.
Three new 50,000-square foot clinics have been proposed along with a fourth clinic that is smaller.
The clinics are meant to deter patients from using emergency rooms as their sole source of medical care. Since UMC has presented plans of these clinics, they've said new prioritized clinics would build health homes for patients.
Changes in Medicaid will potentially alter the way payments are reimbursed to hospitals like UMC. Repeat visits will not be paid for as they were in the past, meaning a new health model for UMC needs to be adopted.
The proposal would raise taxes for El Paso county residents. A home valued at $100,000 would see an increase of roughly $20 per year.
UMC CEO Jim Valenti gave a presentation during Monday's meeting outlining the reasoning behind the request. According to Valenti, the clinics are part of the overall plan that has been created over the past several years.
"Without these clinics this plan is completely gutted," said Valenti.
Valenti said the success of a similar clinic in Northeast El Paso shows the clinics will work. He outlined patient visits during his presentation, stating more than 29,000 visits occurred in 2012 up from around 16,000 when they opened their doors in 2009.
Leading up to Monday's meeting, doctors from the private sector have voiced opposition to the new UMC plan.
Some have voiced concern that UMC could push them out of business, and drive out doctors from the region.
Many doctors have signed up to speak in public comment today; however, they haven't had a chance to do so yet as Valenti is giving his presentation ahead of the public comment section of the meeting.
One person who was allowed to speak early was Cindy Ramos. Ramos is the head of the El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. She was allowed to speak early due to a prior engagement.
Ramos told the court that she doesn't believe the timing is right. She was among the first to speak during public comment explaining that 92% of her group's members said they didn't support the bonds.
"There is a limit of no return for them," said Ramos referring to businesses being overburdened by the taxation that would result from the bond issuance.
Valenti continues to give his presentation now. ABC-7s Matthew Smith is inside the courthouse. Follow him on Twitter for more information as it develops at @MattSmithABC7.

Gwyneth Paltrow is happily over the hill.
The Academy Award winner (and mom to daughter Apple, 8, and son Moses, 6, with husband Chris Martin, 35) celebrated her 40th birthday September 27. At pal Tracy Anderson's Pregnancy Project event supporting Every Mother Counts in New York City October 5, the Iron Man 3 actress spoke about what the milestone birthday means to her.
PHOTOS: Gwyneth Paltrow through the years
"I was really worried about it, leading up to the day, but now I feel really happy and content with my life," Paltrow told reporters. "I'm excited to move into the next phase. It's much more exciting than I thought it would be."
Paltrow doesn't predict much will change now that she's entered a new decade. "I think I try to promote self-growth and reflection for myself every day," she explained.
VIDEO: Gwyneth Paltrow exclaims: "I'm a lush!"
Despite her luxe lifestyle, Paltrow -- whose BFFs include Cameron Diaz, 40, and Beyonce Knowles, 31 -- said she's just like any other mom. "We have a scrimmage soccer game in our yard every day after school. It's so fun," she said. Though Moses prefers soccer, "Apple has been really loving gymnastics," the star said.
PHOTOS: Gwyneth Paltrow's most obnoxious quotes
Regardless of the activity, Paltrow is glad her children are being actively challenged on a daily basis. "I feel that mental happiness and physical happiness are so closely related, and especially for kids, because they have so much energy."

Lucas: Paige Gets The Point
Being a coach--well, being a good coach--means knowing when to encourage and when to challenge. It means being able to switch from counselor to teacher to motivator within hours and sometimes within minutes.
Yesterday, Roy Williams grabbed freshman point guard Marcus Paige after practice. The Iowa native plays probably the most difficult position in the entire Tar Heel system. In terms of overwhelming job duties and attention from Williams, "freshman point guard" edges out even "court sticker designer" or "one-eyed referee" on his scale of attentiveness.
The coach sensed that his point guard needed some encouragement. "I had a sit-down and talked to Coach about being confident in who I am as a player and playing to my strengths instead of trying to do everything exactly the right way," Paige said.
That's a very subtle nuance. Williams is fond of saying, "Do what I tell you to do." A freshman hears that and thinks it means he is supposed to do exactly what the head coach says. Don't deviate and certainly don't improvise. There have been times this year that Williams calls a play and you can see Paige processing the call, then running through it exactly the way it was done in practice, no matter what defense the opponent might be using or how the defenders react.
What Williams tried to explain to Paige yesterday is that he gives the players the outline. But he doesn't dribble, he doesn't shoot and he doesn't pass, so it's up to them to shade in the lines with appropriate flourishes.
"He wants us to run the system but also to be Marcus Paige and be who we are," Paige said. "He gives us certain secondary (break) options, and sometimes I tried to focus too much on running those exactly. If I see an opening, the ultimate goal is to score a basket. That gave me confidence to divert from the exact pattern of the play and make a play."
The results: a sparking 9-assist, 0-turnover game against McNeese State. Those nine assists went to five different players. Had the Tar Heels not had a very comfortable lead, Paige likely would've played the final 4:22 and had a great shot at earning his first double-digit assist game.
Part of the credit for Paige's assist numbers belongs to the Tar Heel shooters, as Carolina hit 46.4% from the three-point line, meaning they very nearly shot as well beyond the arc as they did from the two-point area (where the Tar Heels hit 47.8% of their attempts).
But part of that credit also goes to the player who made those passes, and a developing sense of when and where he should deliver the ball to his teammates.
"It comes with time," Paige said of learning those preferences. "One thing I've picked up is how our post players like getting the ball on different spots on the block. Brice likes it up and away. Joel would rather have it in his chest. Mac is more versatile. He'll step out and catch it away from the basket, or if he seals his man, you can throw the ball up high. Those seem like little things, but they make a big difference. And as you play more minutes with guys, you learn more about their sweet spots."
It would probably be beneficial to print and save that paragraph for every future season when the Tar Heels have a freshman point guard. No matter how much everyone wants to--Williams and Paige himself are included in that category--you just can't rush that type of adjustment.
The head coach knows that, and that's why he's willing to have patience with Paige and willing to boost his confidence on a Friday afternoon in December. But there's a balance, which is why on Saturday morning, it was time for a very different approach.
Back in October, Williams thought he would have a very good defensive team this year. But the Carolina guards have not been good recently, and their defensive miscues--as charted by the coaching staff in film grading sessions--have lately outweighed their good plays (the coaches would especially like the guards to "build out" the defense and pick up their man earlier).
"Dexter and I," Paige said, "have not been excelling in our defensive grades the last couple games. Coach said we can't have that happen again, and he said if it does we may have to start the five guys with the best defensive grades."
Which is why Paige probably seemed more proud of his defensive effort than his nine assists. The Cowboys shot just 35.6% and managed only 17.6% from the three-point line. Combined, starting McNeese guards Dontae Cannon and Kevin Hardy shot 6-of-24.
That's a very nice way to go into the Christmas break, as the Tar Heels are off until the evening of December 27, when they'll reassemble for practice at the Smith Center.
During his break, Paige knows he'll get plenty of questions from friends at home about what it's like to play at one of the nation's elite programs. He also knows exactly what he's going to say.
"It's a wonderful thing every day," he said, "because I get to play basketball for the team I always wanted to play for."
Fair enough, Marcus. Have a good Christmas. As it turned out, though, he wasn't finished.
"And," he added, "it's a great challenge every day, too."

SEC Schedule Set for UK Hoops
Aug 27, 2013
LEXINGTON, Ky. – The Southeastern Conference announced its 14-team, 16-game women's basketball schedule for the 2013-14 season on Tuesday and Kentucky's slate is highlighted by eight home matchups, including battles in Memorial Coliseum with Florida, LSU and Vanderbilt, as well as road matchups at Georgia, Tennessee and Texas A&M.
This marks the fifth year of the 16-game schedule for women's basketball and the second with 14 teams. The schedule is a single round-robin with one permanent opponent and two random opponents. Kentucky's permanent partner is South Carolina, and for this season, UK will face Florida and Alabama in home-and-home matchups.
"Once again, our SEC schedule will be really challenging," UK Hoops Coach Matthew Mitchell said. "I feel good about our nonconference slate as it is designed to help us prepare for the SEC. You have to be focused and ready to go every night in the SEC because from top to bottom, the SEC is tough. I think it's the best conference in the country."
Kentucky opens league play on the road at Alabama on Jan. 2 before playing host to Florida for its SEC home opener on Jan. 5. The Wildcats will travel to Columbia, S.C., for a matchup with the Gamecocks on Jan. 9 and then welcome Missouri to Memorial Coliseum for the first time since 1989.
Another trip to Alabama awaits the Wildcats on Jan. 19 when they travel to Auburn, Ala., to the face the Tigers in Auburn Arena. Prior to hitting the road to Athens, Ga., on Jan. 30, UK will play host to Alabama (Jan. 23) and Arkansas (Jan. 26) in back-to-back home games.
UK looks for its third straight win over LSU at home when the Lady Tigers visit Memorial Coliseum on Feb. 2. Sandwiched in between road games at Florida on Feb. 9 and at Tennessee on Feb. 16 is a Thursday night home matchup with Ole Miss on Feb. 13. Former UK Hoops assistant coach Matt Insell will return to Memorial for the first time as the new head coach of the Rebels.
The Wildcats' matchup at Tennessee will be showcased in a new ESPN Sunday afternoon package. The game is set to tip at 1 p.m. ET and is one of only five games in the package.
To close out the conference slate, UK will play host to South Carolina on Feb. 20 before traveling to Texas A&M and Mississippi State on Feb. 23 and Feb. 27, respectively.
Five seniors – Kastine Evans (Salem, Conn.), Samantha Drake (Bardstown, Ky.), Bernisha Pinkett (Washington, D.C.), DeNesha Stallworth (Richmond, Calif.) and Samarie Walker (West Carrollton, Ohio) – will be honored during a Senior Day ceremony prior to the regular season conference finale versus Vanderbilt on March 2.
Kentucky will head to Duluth, Ga., for the 2014 SEC Tournament in the Gwinnett Center for the second straight season. The tournament will include all 14 teams and begins Wednesday, March 5 and concludes with the championship game on Sunday, March 9.
The Wildcats, who were ranked No. 6 in an early preseason poll by ESPN.com columnist Charlie Crème, return four starters from last season's Elite Eight squad, including All-SEC selections Stallworth and Walker, junior sharpshooter Jennifer O'Neill (Bronx, N.Y.), a Bridgeport Regional All-Tournament Team member, and Evans. New faces to the roster next season are freshmen guards and McDonald's All-Americans Linnae Harper (Chicago) and Makayla Epps (Lebanon, Ky.,) and 6-foot-1 forward Kyvin Goodin-Rogers (Lebanon, Ky.).
All UK Hoops games can be heard live on the UK IMG Sports Network and UKathletics.com.
Game times and the television schedule will be announced at a later date.
Renewals for current season ticket holders were mailed out Wednesday, Aug. 21 with a renewal deadline of Monday, Sept. 9. New season ticket holders can order tickets online at UKAthletics.com or by calling the UK ticket office at 1-800-928-CATS. Seat locations will be assigned after the renewal deadline.
Single-game tickets will go on sale in late October.

First my keyless access failed (doors not unlocking when touching any handle or boot VW button). Now both keys are unable to operate the central locking and disarm the alarm. Even if I use the drivers key manually the central locking isn't working and the alarm is still active. Any troubleshooting I could try?

"The card as a whole is beautiful with rich colors printed on thick, high-quality cardstock. However, my pictures came out much darker than they previewed, so some lighting effects in the photos were lost. I'm not sure if they would've looked better on photo paper instead."
"This card was so easy to personalize I love how it had the 4 small pictures and the big one that gave it constrast I got compliments from everyone that received one I personally choose this one because I was looking for a card that had gray and light blue, and once I got them in the mail the blue was the perfect tone"

I've tried using gentle leader but still doesn't seem to quiet work. she's been on one for a couple months but always seems to chew them apart and just keep pulling.

Just because you own a show dog, does not mean you have to have super-developed upper arm muscles.
Will someone Paleeeze explain that to Odie! LOL!
Actually, she isn't all that bad. She has been shown and has a BH and a SchH1. So she has had to do all that proper heeling, as well as having to trot out in the show ring. Just like ALL the other dogs bred to the German standard.
I think that some Americans just have a convenient excuse as to why they aren't bothering to train their dogs in basic leash manners. Yes, you don't want the dog to sit down in the show ring so you have to train them to stand, and not automatically sit, which you train the automatic sit in the obedience ring. But really, it isn't that hard. We are more confused than the dog is I bet.

Showing a dog does NOT look pretty when your dog throws his head down and his chest forward
|Um, I've used a prong collar with my dog and he does not need one for leash walking, accompanying me to work, public appearances, etc. He is also a show dog (though he also trains and competes in other sports including Schutzhund) and does not pull all over the place. He is *trained* so he knows the rules. Showing a dog does NOT look pretty when your dog throws his head down and his chest forward and goes barreling around the ring. David Taggart do you have *any* experience ring training and showing dogs?
|David Taggart
Once you started to use prong - there would be no end to it. The original idea to walk your dog off leash ceasing your reliance on any collars starts to seem too far fetched only couple of years after.
Some people I trained had show line GSDs, after their dogs learned dogs' etiquette and prey on ball and other toys only, they had to learn to pull on the leash again - because on the show ring your dog has to pull and run forward. Everything their handlers had to do was to put a chain-choke collar on them. It just gave me a thought, if I put a prong on already well trained off leash dog - would it make him wishing to misbehave? I really want to know what is going on in the dog's head when you use a prong. One may not care.

The positive reinforcement on the other hand, seems easier to me, is at least equally effective as long as you put in the effort, and I've found that it gives me more solid results. The prong can do the job of teaching the dog what is acceptable loose leash walking and what is not, but I've always liked the extra dose of focus I get with positive, or treat training methods. It may take longer to proof than the prong, but I enjoy not having to rely on a certain type of training collar or harness to walk my dog calmly down the street. My shepherd is fairly drivey but because I've practiced very consistently with him he knows that when he is on leash, his job is to focus on me unless I tell him otherwise. Ultimately, the decision is up to you, but I thought I'd throw my preferred method out there. If you don't have much experience with this method, the Training Positive channel on Youtube does a good little tutorial - How to teach your dog to STOP pulling! (part 1) - YouTube
But I had great success with following dogs, I came to the conclusion...that for "me" anyway, If I'm not getting the results I want with what I'm doing then the problem is "me" and not the dog!

And just so I explain what I mean. A superstitious fear is when the correction is wrongly paired to something unintended. My dog looks at another dog and growls. I (again 20 years ago) yank on the leash and prong, my dog is looking at the other dog and feeling the pain from the collar and my yanking and associates pain with the other dog. She gets more pissed off at other dog. etc.

I think the most central combs are usually the largest in terms of length and width toward the center of the hive with the smaller of the combs to either side.
Well, before we stuck bees in boxes and other unnatural shaped containers were available, they found rotten tree cavities.This allows a chimney, as well as trapping heat at the top of the hive (depending on the entrance).I think that the shape of the hive is determined by the 1) size and shape of the cavity and 2) the strength of the comb.The only reason that the bees don't build open air chimneys is that the comb isn't strong enough, they build spherical because they have to or the combs will break off. :-DBut that too is just my $.02.
I wonder if whats more important is not so much the vertical or horizontal of it all, but the ability to keep the circular/oval formation.
So, how are natural hives both airtight and well ventilated?

I recently found out about a terrific masking material called Parafilm-M which can be found at lab equipment suppliers. A lot of scale model kit hobbyists use it. Stretches real nice, does not leave a residue and is economical. A 2" wide x 250' length roll retails for about $19 to $20. Also comes in a 4" wide roll, but the 2" width is easier to work with. Just thought I'd throw this out there.
Aloha, Gregg

If your set on an adventure to Milan, this peaceful apartment in the Fiera neighbourhood - near the Lotto M5 metro station - will provide you with all to tools necessary in order to enjoy a unique experience while you devote yourself to your studies!
The apartment is placed near different transport links and shops, making the flat a well-connected place to stay. You can expect five comfortable bedrooms thanks to their well-lit spaces and comfortable look, giving each room a home-like vibe. There is also a functional kitchen where you'll find the essential to cook something up - or if you prefer to dine out, there are plenty of restaurants nearby - and finally, a bathroom. Plus, some of the bedrooms have their own bathroom. Now that you know that this place has all that you need, why wait? An adventure is knocking at your door!

a) Deposit: 2 months' rent (in addition to the month paid via Uniplaces)

At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.
Besides, we've had students whose favourite part was living with a local!
Landlords and host families can be great city guides, help you out with translations and even become your friends.
As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.
