I've been teaching preschoolers aged 4-5 years for a couple of years now and this experience has helped me to come up with some ideas that work really well with my pupils. And my lessons are about 90 minutes long, so believe me I had to be really creative to develop the activities to keep such young kids' interest for such a long time. I've always wanted to teach this age group (not exclusively, I have other students too, most of them YL though), but I know that some people feel a bit uneasy in the beginning and don't know what to do with such young kids, so I decided to share some of my ideas and I hope some of you find them helpful. And please let me know how you're getting on.
Obviously learning has to be based on real things they can see and touch and has to be lots of fun. You can create flashcards on any number of topics, by just GOOGLEing the words and finding the pictures (I know it takes time, but it's worth it) and you can also create simple games using flashcards. Another great idea is to play Bingo and you can download ready made Bingo cards on many topics from http://www.dltk-cards.com.
Action songs are really great too and my favourite ones are:
- If you're Happy and you know it
- Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes
- Reach for the Sky
- The Finger band (musical instruments)
- Ten Little Fingers
- Where Is Thumbkin?
- Hockey Pockey
- Mulberry Bush (things we do in the morning + many other versions)
My pupils' favourite games (that I created myself)
1. "Toys and numbers" (vocabulary: numbers + colours + animals or fruit and vegetables or whatever vocabulary item you're teaching and can find toys for). Print numbers 1 to 10 on A5 or A4 sheets of paper, making each number a different colour. Ask children to arrange the numbers on the floor in the right order. Then ask (one child at a time or all of them at the same time, depending on ability) What colour is number 5? What colour is number 7? etc. Then ask one pupil at a time to come up to you and describe an animal (or just name an animal, again, depending on their level) and once the child guesses the animal, ask him or her to find it in the box with toys and put it on one of the numbers ex. Put the elephant on number 3. Put the horse on number 7, etc. Once each animal has been assigned a number, ask questions: What animal is on number 6? etc. You can also ask: What animal is between a cow and a pig, etc? My pupils love this game and are really good at it. You can obviously make any variations you want.
2. "2 chairs game" (vocabulary: actions + prepositions + animals). Put two chairs in front of the children (the chairs should preferably be of 2 different colours). Ask one child at a time to come up to you and first get him or her guess the animal and bring it to you as in the first game. Then tell the child where to put the animal: Put the penguin under the blue chair, etc. Then give him or her 5-10 commands using different actions and prepositions, be creative! Ex. Jump around the yellow chair! Stand between the chairs! Take the penguin and put it behind the blue chair! (you have to preteach this vocabulary, but this is a great way to practice it and kids love helping each other perform the actions).
3. "Body parts game" Ask two kids to come up to you and say "the nose for you Martina" and "the elbow for you Adelia" and the children are supposed to touch each other with the named body parts, there're so many possible combinations and they have so much fun
4. "Guess your classmate" Ask a child to come up to you and describe one of the other children's clothes and he or she has to guess who you're talking about.
When I work with kindergarten kids who I need to start teaching reading, I use the Phonics method, which works really well and you can find lots of great worksheets on http://www.bogglesworldesl.com website (there're many other great worksheets on it too, not just phonics)
My final advice, if anyone is still reading, is to be enthusiastic and creative and try to have good relationship with kids, if they like you, they'll be happy to do the activities you offer them.

App-V, UE-V, MED-V, MBAM, AGPM, DaRT -- if these acronyms don't mean anything to you, it's high time you became acquainted with the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack (MDOP), an amazing suite of six tools for easing virtualization, management, and system restoration on Windows environments.
The toolset is available via Microsoft Software Assurance, which is part of Microsoft's Volume Licensing program. If you have an MSDN or TechNet subscription, you can evaluate MDOP as well. Anyone looking to virtualize applications, desktops, or user experiences across devices should become acquainted with the MDOP toolset.
[ Get ready for Windows Server 2012 with the Windows Server 2012 Deep Dive PDF special report. | Stay atop key Microsoft technologies in our Technology: Microsoft newsletter. ]
Here's a rundown of what to expect from each tool and how they might fit in your Windows environment.
Application Virtualization (App-V) 5.0
As the name implies, App-V is all about virtualizing applications. By tapping App-V for application virtualization, your users will be able to work with programs as if they're traditionally installed. App-V also makes application provisioning and patch management that much easier. App-V is best used in VDI environments; doing so reduces disk requirements for VDI desktops because the apps stream from a Shared Content Store.
App-V 5.0 comes with a new Web-based admin console -- which I'm not usually a fan of -- and App-V integrates with System Center Configuration Manager, allowing you to manage physical and virtual applications from one place.
User Experience Virtualization (UE-V)
UE-V helps you provide a consistent, personal experience across devices, enabling your users to switch from one device (Windows 7 or 8) to another and, after logging in, have their personal settings carry over. This includes the user's taskbar configuration, desktop background, Explorer options, and application settings, regardless of whether the app is installed or virtualized.
In the past, Windows admins might have used roaming profiles, but that doesn't cut it these days, especially with virtualized desktops and applications. Thankfully, UE-V goes beyond the simple roaming desktop background.
Microsoft Enterprise Desktop Virtualization (MED-V) 2.0
MED-V is a great tool for handling compatibility issues that you may not even know exist before you perform an upgrade to your desktops. As you're well aware, some applications don't carry over nicely from Windows XP to Windows 7 or 8; this may force you to delay an upgrade until your application vendor provides a migration path or enhancement or you find a viable work-around or alternative program. MED-V delivers apps in a Windows XP-based compatibility workspace so that users can access their software from systems running Windows 7 or 8. Through MED-V, the legacy app runs in a virtualized environment, and access to printers, USB devices, and so on is seamless, as if the app is local.

Petra Nemcova & Karlie Kloss: Pirelli Calendar Cuties
Joining a bevy of beauties, Petra Nemcova and Karlie Kloss attended the 2013 Pirelli Calendar Unveiling Press Conference at Hotel Palace Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil on Tuesday (November 27).
The Czech model looked stunning in a short-sleeved knee-length pink dress with cream colored heels and a matching clutch while her fellow model of the American variety looked adorable in a shiny short-sleeved top and knee-length royal blue skirt with open-toed heels. Also on hand to celebrate was Owen Wilson, Summer Rayne Oakes, Isabeli Fontana, and Elisa Sednaoui.
Beginning in 1964, the calendar was started as a racy way to promote the brand's tires, but this year, the models will all be clothed. Photographer Steve McCurry explained his vision, saying, "I thought 'why don't we find models who aren't only gorgeous and beautiful but are also doing good things.'"
In awe of her company, Petra tweeted on Tuesday, "With such amazing and inspirational women at the #PirelliCalendar Launch Gala!"

"These are better than expected. I didn't want to spend a lot and therefore went with a postcard and they are really cute. Nice paper quality. Very pleased. I always turn to Tiny Prints for my printing needs and am never disappointed."
"Love how these postcards turned out. Sending postcards with our new address and a quick message to our friends and family was nice. The best part: no envelopes!"
"Ordered 100 of these moving announcements in the navy color. We love them!! They are beautiful and elegant looking, unlike other moving announcements that I looked at. It is a postcard which we like. Highly recommend these."
"The bluish background color had a more retro feel when I received it, but it looked great. Have had nice feedback from friends who received it."
"The cards were excellent and artistically appealing. It was a quick way to notify a lot of people and saved us a lot of time."

Ive posted a bit on this forum, specifically about my somewhat recently acquired Savage Model 11 in .260Rem. For the most part Ive been reloading Hornady's 129gr. SST bullets going 2800fps. Ive done a decent amount of shooting with this set up and I feel confident about taking deer at reasonable ranges.
This is where I have some questions though.I'm also wanting to use the gun for varmits. I'm looking at lighter bullets to use, specifically Hornady's 123gr. Grendel (A-Max)-.510BC. I have some concerns that this slightly lighter bullet doesn't dramatically change trajectory....Only about 5" difference in drop at 500yds. Would I be better just sticking to what I'm using already (129gr) or try a lighter bullet, like the 123gr. Gendel or 120gr. A-Max? Or should I go even lighter?
I've been looking into longer range shooting with the .260Rem. and it looks promising. Apparently its capable of matching ballistic trajectories of the .300Win Mag and even surpassing the .308 [when not accounting for energy]. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!

Regarding multiple sources, what I would do is find a pro who has successful students or whose style you like, and then get suggestions from them for other people to learn from (including suggested videos etc.). This should make it easier for you to stay in the same stylistic family, rather than getting a lot of conflicting advice. Especially at a beginning level, it can be hard to tell what is the same and what is different, and which differences are contradictory.

How mad or angry would you be, and what kind of violence would you pursue, if suddenly these events happened :-
1) It is proven the world's rich and elite have been paying for a mass campaign of disinformation about global climate change and peak oil.
2) They did it just to buy their own families time to build their own private colony ships to escape Earth. You are NOT included.
3) Thanks to their disinformation, the world will be a wasteland in 20 years and everyone left here will PERISH. No further colony ships will be possible.
What would you do? Will you be mad? Would you fight back now with violence while you can? Or will you allow them to escape with impunity?
1% pays for anti-climate change propaganda~
Peak oil already passed us~ http://www.theguardian.com/environme...nomy-recession
is it time to panic? why or why not?

Home > News & Events > News > Articles > Delving Into Criminal Justice Policy for the Summer
With their coursework and final exams in the rearview mirror, many students are now taking the opportunity to put their knowledge to work over the summer. Once again this year, Harvard Kennedy School's (HKS) Program in Criminal Justice Policy and Management (PCJ) is sponsoring a handful of students who have been selected for summer internships in police departments and other law enforcement agencies across the country.
"Students gain valuable experience that helps them deepen skills and hone professional aspirations while organizations receive invaluable help on important projects by dedicated, competent students," said Executive Director Christine Cole.
PCJ student interns receive funding to offset the living costs during their full-time, 10-week internships. Applications are accepted from students across Harvard University, with preference given to Harvard Kennedy School (HKS) students.
Claudia Newman-Martin MPP 2014 is working this summer for the Open Society Justice Initiative (OSJI) in New York. She will assist OSJI with litigation, advocacy, research, and technical assistance aimed at promoting human rights and building legal capacity for open societies.
"Thanks to PCJ I have the opportunity to contribute to a foundation at the forefront of using law and advocacy as a force for important social change," said Newman-Martin.
Philip Tizzani MPP 2014 will work at the District of Columbia Department of Youth Rehabilitative Services (DYRS) helping to develop and implement a risk reassessment tool for juvenile offenders.
"Working at a juvenile justice department in city government, I am constantly grappling with the relationship between public safety and planning treatment for youth," said Tizzani. "I am grateful for the staff at PCJ who help me think about these issues through a holistic approach to criminal justice."
"We have seen summer internships develop into PAEs and even full time employment," said Cole. "Making deeper connections between the world of practice and our students is one of the important benefits of funding students for summer internships."
The 2013 PCJ Summer Interns also include Candace Mitchell MPP 2014 and Nick Wilson MPP 2014.
Watch former summer interns talk about PCJ and their internship experiences:
Claudia Newman-Martin MPP 2014 is working this summer for the Open Society Justice Initiative (OSJI) in New York
"PCJ not only supported me financially but also helped me to brainstorm and connect with internship opportunities that would allow me to use my skills and engage with issues I am passionate about," said Claudia Newman-Martin.

Video: Howard Dean Tells the (Ugly) Truth on Taxes
posted at 4:09 pm on December 6, 2012 by Guy Benson
Dean, on MSNBC: "This is initially going to seem like heresy from a progressive. The truth is everybody needs to pay more taxes, not just the rich."
MSNBC contributor Krystal Ball (real name) agrees, offering a somewhat muted note of concern about "timing:"
If we're going to continue to make the promises and keep the promises that I think are so important…we probably will have to raise taxes on a lot of people. But it's a question of timing of when do we want to make those choices?"
As I wrote at Townhall, Dean and Ball are correct about the widespread consequences of their ideology. They're wrong, however, about the capacity of the federal government to "keep the promises" it's making, even via mammoth across-the-board tax hikes:
When the accrued expenses of the government's entitlement programs are counted, it becomes clear that to collect enough tax revenue just to avoid going deeper into debt would require over $8 trillion in tax collections annually. That is the total of the average annual accrued liabilities of just the two largest entitlement programs, plus the annual cash deficit. Nothing like that $8 trillion amount is available for the IRS to target. According to the most recent tax data, all individuals filing tax returns in America and earning more than $66,193 per year have a total adjusted gross income of $5.1 trillion. In 2006, when corporate taxable income peaked before the recession, all corporations in the U.S. had total income for tax purposes of $1.6 trillion. That comes to $6.7 trillion available to tax from these individuals and corporations under existing tax laws. In short, if the government confiscated the entire adjusted gross income of these American taxpayers, plus all of the corporate taxable income in the year before the recession, it wouldn't be nearly enough to fund the over $8 trillion per year in the growth of U.S. liabilities. Some public officials and pundits claim we can dig our way out through tax increases on upper-income earners, or even all taxpayers. In reality, that would amount to bailing out the Pacific Ocean with a teaspoon. Only by addressing these unsustainable spending commitments can the nation's debt and deficit problems be solved.
The video above features liberals discussing their grand plans with other liberals, safely ensconced within the Lean Forward cocoon. Much higher taxes for everyone, much more federal spending, and deficit reduction as an afterthought, at best. Ball actually describes it as an undesirable undertaking. Are you ready for this brave new (unsustainable) world, America?

Research Information
Research Description
Dr. Hofer's research is on the identification and explanation of individual differences in developmental and aging-related processes and involves the analysis of existing longitudinal studies, new data collection efforts using intensive measurement designs, and developments in research methodology focused on measurement and analysis of change.
Interdisciplinary Research
The Integrative Analysis of Longitudinal Studies of Aging (IALSA) research network involves investigators from medicine, epidemiology, psychology, sociology, and demography.
Health Related Research
Future research will require intensive measurements of functioning over long periods of time in order to permit sensitive �prospective� detection of change from an individual�s normative performance. The major focus of our research using intensive measurement designs is to facilitate early detection and permit targeted intervention of pathological cognitive aging. Intensive measurement designs permit the control for within-person variation and practice effects and provides greater power for the detection of change from within-person baseline. We have developed and implemented a feasible protocol and measurement battery for sustained assessment within home or institutional settings.
Research Keywords
International Involvement
International Research
Dr. Hofer co-directs an international research network for the Integrative Analysis of Longitudinal Studies on Aging (IALSA) which focuses on understanding within-person change in cognition and personality in the context of aging and health-related change. This international collaborative network is based on a coordinated analysis approach that enables the efficient examination of results across studies in ways that maximize comparability.

The view from Ankara is rather pessimistic about the recent meeting between President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyau. There is disappointment at lack of any statement regarding the need to halt construction of settlements in the West Bank or a clear commitment from the Israel leader to support the two nation solution. Some Turkish officials hoped Obama would urged Israel to repair its damaged relations with Turkey, but all that emerged were platitudes about the "special relations" between the two nations and assurances from Netanyahu that he would discuss with Palestinians. Exactly, what is the meaning of holding talks if there is no desire to accept a compromise solution to existing problems?
Professor Mustafa Kibarogiu from Bilkent University expressed concern at failure of the Israel government to understand changes in policy on the part of the Turkish government towards Israel as a result of the Gaza invasion and attacks on the aid flotilla. He doubts if President Obama even understands the growing rift between Israel and Turkey. A tragedy of Israel is failure on the part of Israelis to have even the slightest grasp of how their nation is viewed in the world or the tendency to equate disagreement with Israel as examples of anti-Semitism. Jewish actor, Dustin Hoffman just canceled an appearance at a film festival in Jerusalem due to the flotilla attacks. Undoubtedly, Israelis will accuse him of being a self hating Jew.

Council of Europe Anti-Racism Commission to prepare report on Sweden
Strasbourg, 15.09.2011 - A delegation of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) visited Sweden from 5 to 9 September 2011 as the first step in the preparation of a monitoring report. During its visit, ECRI´s delegation gathered information on the implementation of the recommendations it made to the authorities in its previous report in 2005 and discussed new issues that have emerged since.
The delegation held meetings in Stockholm and Malmö with representatives of all relevant ministries and other competent authorities, national human rights structures and NGOs.
Following this visit, ECRI will adopt a report in which it will make a fresh set of recommendations on measures to be taken by the authorities to address racism, racial discrimination (i.e. discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, citizenship, colour, religion and language), xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance in the country. Among these, three will be revisited two years after the publication of the report as part of an interim follow-up procedure.
In its 2005 report, ECRI recommended that the authorities fine-tune existing criminal and civil law provisions to ensure that they constitute effective tools against racist expression, racist organisations, racially motivated crime and racial discrimination; that they consider, along with measures to improve the living conditions of persons living in areas predominantly inhabited by persons of immigrant origin, measures to actually de-segregate these areas; and give priority attention to discrimination in employment.
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, citizenship, colour, religion and language, as well as xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

I asked this in the Golf V/Jetta V, but they gave me no help. Hopefully Rocky Mountain forum delivers?
I own a '07 GTI and looking for a hitch that will clear with the OEM votex bumper. I looked Curt #1011740 but from pictures that I've seen it doesn't look like it would fit since the votex comes down lower and has a diffuser. Also looked at the Draw-Tite Hidden Hitch, however from this and other photos, it seems that it bends the bumper.
I'm not looking for a roof rack or a hatch door rack.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

My MLC sidearm is one of these items that I jumped at when it was first available just in case it wasn't around later, but then put away and never finished it.
Now I've pulled it back out again and painted it, but I'm just not satisfied with the whole thing. I have decided to have the barrel machined in aluminum- I drew up some specs in CorelDraw and sent them to the machinist yesterday. I expect to have the parts back by next week sometime- I'll post pictures as I go here:
A couple of questions for the group:
1. Has anyone done this before?
2. Would anyone else be interested in a machined barrel from my machinist? (I'll of course have to let you know what the cost will be next week.)
It looks like the process of removing the old barrel may be a bit tricky- this thing is made VERY sturdy.

To celebrate the centenary of the birth of Alf Prøysen, the National Library of Norway is proud to present the exhibition Pop! Alf Prøysen on all channels.
"Radio, the record industry and TV have carried Prøysen's work across the land and made it understood," maintained the editor of Magasinet for alle, Nils Johan Rud, in a radio essay about the writer and musician in 1971. In doing so, he highlighted a major prerequisite for Alf Prøysen's popularity: the explosion in media technology in the 1950s.
The modern media gave Prøysen a direct channel of communication with the public. It is perhaps only when we study the dynamic staging of Prøysen's works in various media that we understand his unique position as a popular artist and writer.
The exhibition will run until 31 January 2015


text: No, that was not the intent at all. Statements/thoughts that are oxymorons in my own brilliant mind I tend to state are moronic....Like Rich Rod stating they have had a "great" week of practice, Like Lions coaches saying that any pro team can beat any pro team on any given week. But apparently verbally saying things sartastically apparently comes across as much funnier that typing it. So, I apologize about my post, it was not intended as it came across, I should have said it was a very (very) funny oxymoron (and I do still chuckle about it).

Third-year student draws on experience, takes advantage of opportunities to become skilled orator
FEATURE RELEASE (March 17, 2011) – Third-year Wayne State University Law School student Haddy Abouzeid knows how to craft an effective argument. The Moot Court vice chancellor began honing his skills long before enrolling at Wayne Law in 2008.
In fact, Abouzeid's exemplary oratorical skills first surfaced in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, after, as Abouzeid recalls, immediate and dramatic shifts took place in the social dynamics at his West Michigan high school.
"Many of my peers viewed me with guarded suspicion at best, or treated me with outright derision at worst," said Abouzeid, the son of an Egyptian immigrant to the United States. "There was no shortage of 'jokes' about my alleged 'affiliation' with Osama bin Laden. As the only person of Middle Eastern descent in my high school class, I dealt with issues most of my fellow students never had to face.
"I realized, though, that I was the first Arab-American most students at my high school had ever encountered. So I diligently worked to educate those who had verbally harassed me rather than retaliate with insults or violence that would only reinforce stereotypes about Arab-Americans."
In doing so, he realized his ability to effectively articulate an idea, craft an argument and persuade an audience – something that amplified his aspirations of attending law school.
Abouzeid earned his undergraduate degree from Grand Valley State University and applied to Wayne Law shortly thereafter. At the beginning of his second year, he jumped at the opportunity to join the Law School's Moot Court organization.
"My involvement with the Moot Court program has undeniably been one of the most rewarding experiences of my law school career," said Abouzeid, who will be the first attorney in his family. "Moot Court has played an integral role in my ability to analyze and articulate legal arguments with confidence, which is essential in practice."
Though he has gained a substantial amount of experience through Moot Court, he also has sharpened his skills through an internship at the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office, where he works in the Comprehensive Anti-Gang Unit on assignments pertaining to serious felony crimes and preparing motions, indictments and the occasional appeal, and arguing in court.
"Through my internship, I've been able to put the knowledge and skills I've gained from Wayne Law's superb faculty in action before the judges of Michigan's trial courts," said Abouzeid, who began working in the Preliminary Examination Division prior to the Anti-Gang Unit. "The rich exposure to courtroom litigation during my experience with the Prosecutor's Office has provided an exceptional opportunity to enhance my oral advocacy and writing skills and has introduced me to the rigorous demands of court. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to work with – and learn from – the talented practitioners in the office of Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy."
"Haddy is an outstanding and hard-working young man," says Michael Harrison, an assistant Wayne County prosecutor in charge of the Comprehensive Anti-Gang Initiative, a U.S. Department of Justice program. "His contributions to our office have been significant and he continues to provide invaluable service."
Abouzeid, who had his choice of several law schools to attend, strongly recommends Wayne Law.
"Although law school is inherently competitive, there is no cut-throat atmosphere at Wayne Law," he says. "I find that my peers in school and, in particular, within the Moot Court program – not to mention the faculty and alumni – are exceptionally supportive of my success.
"Additionally, Wayne Law projects and embodies a sincere commitment to cultural diversity, which, after my post-Sept. 11 experience, means a lot to me. I am very excited about the soon-to-be-completed Damon J. Keith Center for Civil Rights."

Paul from Maplewood, MN asks
Why do I sometimes get e-mails that are not addressed to me? In the To: line in the e-mail header is a e-mail address totally different from my own for a different e-mail client.
Why do you get emails that aren't addressed to you? You'll be glad to know it isn't because of anything you've done! The answer lies in the Bcc field. This tip describes some the role of the Bcc field and its uses.
The Role of the Bcc Field
The Bcc field in an email client enables you to send an email to anyone, while displaying someone else's email ID in the To: field. The following image displays an email being sent to firstname.lastname@example.com.
In addition to being sent to firstname.lastname@example.com, this email will also be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com, and email@example.com because their email IDs are in the Bcc field. When these recipients open the email, they'll only see the email ID as specified in the To: field. The image below displays the email received by the recipients. Notice that the To field does not display the email IDs stated in the Bcc field.
Enable the Bcc Field
To use the Bcc field, you need to first enable it. In the email program, locate the Bcc link. The name of the link varies one email program to another. For example, in Yahoo! Mail, the Show Bcc link is used, as shown below.
Similarly, in Gmail, the Add Bcc link is used. To see how to add a Bcc field in Microsoft Outlook Express, take a look at at earlier WorldStart tip, Keeping Your Mass Mailing Contacts a Secret is Easy as BCC.
Uses of the Bcc Field
You might be wondering why anyone would bother using the Bcc field. Here are a couple of reasons:
Sending a Mass Mail: Suppose you want to send a Happy Easter email to several people. Instead of writing a personal email to each person, you could send all of them an Easter greeting by putting their names in the Bcc field and addressing the mail to yourself. If you put all their names in the To field, their email addresses will be displayed to everyone in the To list. This might not be appreciated by all recipients as it would be a violation of their privacy.
SPAM: The Bcc field is commonly used by Spammers. If you receive Spam emails, check the To field. If it doesn't contain your email ID, then the Spammer has put your email address in the Bcc field.

Manchester Mayor Gatsas set to resume his duties following surgery
MANCHESTER — Mayor Ted Gatsas is set to reassume his post this evening presiding over the meeting of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
Gatsas has been away from City Hall since he underwent heart bypass surgery a month ago.
He's continued to be involved in city affairs, but this is the first week that he will be maintaining a schedule of public events since the operation. Gatsas said he's up for getting back to work.
"I feel better than I've felt in probably 20 years," he said.
The agenda for Tuesday's meeting is relatively light, but it does include some items that will likely generate debate, such as new parking regulations.
The proposed ordinances would extend meter enforcement until 8 p.m. across the entire downtown area and establish a $100-per-year resident permit. The board will also consider a new policy on how the city deals with right-to-know requests. The policy, among other things, will establish a uniform protocol for how department heads respond to the requests; require a signed form for all requests made under the state statute; and impose copy fees for electronic records.
In addition to this evening's meeting, which begins at 7 p.m., Gatsas will be attending an event at Catholic Medical Center on Wednesday and a Salvation Army event on Friday at the Derryfield Country Club.

Learn Haskell in 10 minutes
From HaskellWiki
1 Overview
Haskell is a functional (that is, everything is done with function calls), statically, implicitly typed (types are checked by the compiler, but you don't have to declare them), lazy (nothing is done until it needs to be) language. It's closest popular relative is probably the ML family of languages.
The most common Haskell compiler is GHC. You can download GHC from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_661.html. GHC binaries are available for Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS, Windows, and Solaris. Once you've installed GHC, you get two programs you're interested in right now: ghc, and ghci. The first compiles Haskell libraries or applications to binary code. The second is an interpreter that lets you write Haskell code and get feedback right away.
2 Simple Expressions
You can type most math expressions directly into ghci and get an answer.Prelude>
16Strings are in "double quotes." You can concatenate them with
"Hello, Haskell"
Calling functions is done by putting the arguments directly after the function. There are no parentheses as part of the function call:Prelude>
3 The Console
I/O actions can be used to read from and write to the console. Some common ones include:Prelude>
Hello, HaskellPrelude>
2 + 2 = 4Prelude>
ABCDE 12345Reading can be done with
4 16
(The 4 was input. The 16 was a result.)There is actually another way to write
main = do putStrLn "What is 2 + 2?" x <- readLn if x == 4 then putStrLn "You're right!" else putStrLn "You're wrong!"
4 Simple TypesSo far, not a single type declaration has been mentioned. That's because Haskell does type inference. You generally don't have to declare types unless you want to. If you do want to declare types, you use
You can also ask ghci what type it has chosen for something. This is useful because you don't generally have to declare your types.Prelude> :t
Things get more interesting for numbers.Prelude> :t
These type signatures mean:
- can be used as any numeric type. (This is why I was able to declare42can be any fractional type, but not an integral type.5<hask> as either an Int or a Double earlier.)
* <hask>42.0
- (which is a function call, incidentally) can be any integral type, but not a fractional type.gcd 15 20
There are five numeric types in the Haskell "prelude" (the part of the library you get without having to import anything):
- is an integer with at least 30 bits of precision.Int
- is an integer with unlimited precision.Integer
- is a single precision floating point number.Float
- is a double precision floating point number.Double
- type class. The first two belong toRational<hask> is a fraction type, with no rounding error.
All five of these belong to the <hask>Num, and the last two toIntegral.Fractional
Putting it all together,Prelude>
<interactive>:1:0: No instance for (Integral Double)The final type worth mentioning here is


text: I'm looking for some advice regarding TEFL training. My partner and i are looking for a career change and have been looking into training for a career teaching English, but we have a few queries and seem to be finding conflicting advice depending on where we look. We are thinking of doing a course with TEFL England - 120 hours training, online and classroom with some classroom teaching (although only to other TEFL students, i believe). Is this any good or does it have to be the CELTA type qualification? Also, i do not have a degree although my partner does, i know some countries will not accept applications without one. We are considering getting qualified and then maybe getting some work in the UK (we're both English) and then moving on to France. After getting some experience there we may consider travelling to Asia, possibly Indonesia. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

I have an SP 01. The version I have is the regular, the kind with a safety.
Both have the 19 round capacity mags but you may be shocked to learn those same mags will fit and function just fine in your 75B! The mags go for a major premium. I felt I had it good paying nearly 40 each for them since they run over that most places.
Puts the real "wonder" into this Wonder 9. Anyone down range will sure wonder if you are EVER going to run out of ammo!
The frame is forged, rather than cast on the 75B. This is the trick they learned from making the P01, the latest compact variation of the 75 family. The full length dust cover gives you a rail for attaching things, such as the bayonet mount!
If that seems a little too gunstore ninja then maybe just a rail-mount flashlight, laser or combo would do you.
I just picked mine up from the gunsmith who had been doing an action job on it to smooth out the trigger.
How would I make it better? Make it in .40 S&W.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
Sorry forgot to mention that I ordered the books control unleashed and the cautious canine.
Yes u are right he was not engaging with me especially after corrections. I have been working with him on engagement while playing and doing some training on my own at the park.
A concept I have learned from my Schutzhund trainer and is also principle to Michael Ellis's training is this one word: Engagement. Once you have total engagement training is going to be way more fun and successful. Until I have great engagement I don't bother with training obedience behaviors.
From reading your posts, it sounds like the dog is not engaged and any corrections are just going to lower drive and engagement. The distraction and ground sniffing very well can be avoidance behavior and is another example of the dog's mental state during the training - stressed.
As someone else mentioned, if it were me I would take a big step back and build back trust, build engagement, and train to bring up drive, which enhances engagement. I'm not saying corrections should never be used but of I see a dog that is not engaged, not in drive and showing avoidance while training then I would not be doing corrections to "fix" it because it generally won't.
Play play play! Build back your dog's trust and enjoyment for being with you. Key - Keep training short, high energy and fun. I also like to use breakfast and/or dinner to do food training (particularly with young dogs). Again, short sessions and use the food to build drive. Use food as you would a toy to make drive - don't just feed it to them make them move for it. There is good information out there on how to make food an "active" reward, which increases it's value for creating drive.
The thing is, every dog is a little different and every trainer has different skill levels in reading a dog, timing, etc. so sometimes techniques that work for one person and their dogs is just not going to be right for another person and their dog.
Good luck! And happy training!

|Thanks to evetyone with their advice, im so happy to day, Dex did sooooo much better this week. I took a step back and stopped doing the martingale corrections, went back to the flat collar using the jingle of his tags as a correction,played with him several times during the week at the same park that we practice at, use some boiled chicken for treats. I didnt have to slow down the training this time, I was able to keep up with the class. I don't know how he will do next week. but this week he did so well that they used him twice as the demo dog.

I have no problem with corrections in general, but my bias is always going to be towards motivational training. The more I can make my dogs WANT to engage with me, the more I can show them that it's in their best interest to do what I want because that's the path to get what THEY want, the fewer corrections I need to use for non-compliance. For that reason it just makes sense to train as reward based as I can, and only use corrections when I feel I must.
If your dog is clearly not happy and having fun in training, it seems likely he's getting too many corrections and not enough rewards, which means that he's put in situations where he's likely to fail, rather than being set up to succeed.
If he's not sitting in class (a simple command, and probably one of the first things you taught him), and he's more interested in sniffing the floor or pulling towards the agility area, then there might be too much going on in the environment for him to focus and obey commands. Correcting him for that doesn't seem to be helping, so try something else.
Jane mentioned Control Unleashed, an excellent book by Leslie McDevitt. One thing Leslie is really adamant about is that when you train in a new, more distracting environment, if your dog is distracted or worried, or showing signs of stress, you lower the criteria. That means that maybe you go back to luring a sit for awhile, maybe you up your reinforcement schedule, even for things that he should already "know", that wouldn't need to be reinforced in a less distracting environment such as around the house.
Hi David we have been doing NILIF since i joined this site last year.
@ Gretchen. Im going to try another day with all the advice here, if it doesnt help, then Im going to stop taking him to this specific class and just use that time to play more.
|David Taggart
|Read about NILIF training. I'd say no more.
|I would take a break from training. And then can you just do a different type of training like nosework or agility?

I had some problems with my pup when we were training in a park. I did feel bad for him because here was this great open area, but we hopped out of the truck and went straight into OB. I started going 1/2 an hour earlier to let him smell the squirrel poo and play with the leaves, and this made a huge difference in his attitude. Maybe that would help you too?

Just stand there and let him look around or sniff. When he finally looks at you have a party! Bring out the toy or the treats and run/play with him. It may take a while, but he should start looking at you more. You can do this outside of class to encourage engagement. Micheal Ellis has a video demonstrating this. I'll see if I can find it.

This engine broke a con rod last year and I'm using the chassis for another project. I have 2 sets of cylinders, heads, carbs, points plate, etc. Stator/rotor, pipes, some chrome covers, starter clutch, clutch are gone. I haven't split the cases yet but the center con rod is broken and I don't know what it might have done to the crank.
Let me know if you might be interested in anything - very reasonable prices!

Baton Rouge, La (#31129)-"Tessa" - young female (adopted)
Tessa is a young female in Baton Rouge, Louisiana who needs a foster or rescue angel. I'm usually okay when I leave the shelter, but this one is killing me. I can't foster at the moment due to a medical issue being treated for one of my own dogs, and I'm very worried about this little one.
She is terrified and shut down, even though she's only been at the shelter a few days. It took me 30 minutes to get her from the back of her kennel to the door, with treats and lots of patience, the first time I met her. She eventually decided I was nice and surprised me by crawling into my lap at the entrance to her kennel, while I was squatting down feeding her treats. She didn't want to walk with me -- she just wanted to be held. She wants to be in a lap or pressed up against a person to feel safe.
She has a skin condition that hasn't been diagnosed yet. It's apparently unlikely to be demodex, though, according to the shelter's staff. I gave her a chlorhex bath Sunday, to see if it helps, and I got her Capstarred, in case its a flea allergy. She looks pretty horrible, as her skin is flaking everywhere, and there are lots of bare patches. She smells way better after the bath, though.
Each time I've had her out, she relaxes in my lap, and I can feel the fear and stress release from her little body as I hold her and pet her. She fell asleep that way after her bath. She also rolled over nibbled my fingers gently while I rubbed her tummy--she's absolutely charming.
She was temporarily kenneled with a goofy young lab, so we know she has no dog aggression in the shelter. She's quite docile and submissive in the shelter.
She's at the public shelter in East Baton Rouge Parish -- Companion Animal Alliance (Companion Animals Alliance). I sent them a bio to get her up on Petfinder, but it's not listed yet. The shelter will gratefully work with reputable out-of-state rescues, consider applications from out-of-state adopters, and even approve foster applications out of town -- they are trying to move from being a high-kill shelter to a low-kill one, and they are open to creative ideas that save dogs and get them into good homes.
PM me if interested in saving this little one. Please cross-post anywhere she'll get attention. The adoption fee is just $12 in December (which includes spay, up-to-date shots, and microchip). Heartworm status is unknown (but she can be tested upon request, for any prospective adopter).
Compare the face above to the pitiful one when I first encountered her in her kennel:
And here she is after her bath and lap-nap, content to be carried like a baby in Mr. Magwart's arms:
That last picture is just heart wrenching, I pray she finds a good home. I wish Zoey wasn't DR!!!! Keep me updated on this girl please.
I went to the shelter tonight to visit Tessa, as she was worrying me. It's like she's a different dog -- she wiggled to greet me at her kennel gate, happily walked outside with me on the leash, danced and played with me, tried to jump on my head when I crouched down. She's feeling good, and acting like a puppy. It was fabulous.
She wasn't itchy either. The chlorhex bath seems to have helped her enormously. She's also on Doxy, which may be why she's feeling so much perkier after a few days.
It was so good to finally see her real self coming out, instead of the scared, withdrawn baby she's been. She met some prospective adopters while I had her out, and while they didn't take her home, it was a great opportunity for me to see her with new people. She was aloof with the man at first, but instantly very friendly with the lady. She warmed up to the man after a few minutes, and then liked him a lot.
She's a tiny thing, and probably will always be on the small side, but she's pretty wonderful.
That is so nice to hear that she is feeling better. Hopefully, the lady that visited, will be thinking of her too, and come back.:)
No news to report, other than that this baby has come out of her shell and is prancing and playing, finally. She's acting like a normal dog. My visits to her this week are paying off -- she's greeting people happily at her cage door now, and doing all the right things to get herself noticed. **knock on wood**
Compare the sad picture in the cage above, the day I met her, with this happy smile -- this is why I volunteer:
many holiday blessings to you magwart, thank you for your volunteer work (i totally understand how WONDERFUL it makes you feel to see the changes in these dear souls), and many good wishes for miss tessa to find her forever home.
Tessa is a beauty :) Thank you so much for helping her Magwart.
Adopted! :)

The Evolution Of The Right-Wing Media's Class Warfare
From "Makers Vs. Takers" To Romney's "Gifts"
Research ››› ››› ZACHARY PLEAT
Rush Limbaugh and Fox News hosts are embracing Mitt Romney's claim that President Obama won reelection because he provided "gifts" to various groups of voters in the form of government policies and programs. These claims are the latest installment in Limbaugh and Fox News' multi-year narrative that roughly half of Americans are "takers" that mooch off of America's wealthy through government programs.
Romney: Voters Chose Obama Because He Gave Them "Gifts"
Romney: Obama Won Because He Lavished Gifts On African Americans, Hispanics, And Young People. On November 14, Mitt Romney told his campaign donors that the reason he lost is because the Obama campaign "was following the old playbook of giving a lot of stuff to groups that they hoped they could get to vote for them and be motivated to go out to the polls, specifically the African American community, the Hispanic community and young people." Romney cited the Affordable Care Act as "a big gift to young people" and Obama's immigration policies as "a huge plus" to Hispanic voters.
Mitt Romney said Wednesday that his loss to President Obama was due in large part to his rival's strategy of giving "gifts" during his first term to three groups that were pivotal in the results of last week's election: African Americans, Latinos and young voters.
"The Obama campaign was following the old playbook of giving a lot of stuff to groups that they hoped they could get to vote for them and be motivated to go out to the polls, specifically the African American community, the Hispanic community and young people," Romney told hundreds of donors during a telephone town hall Wednesday. "In each case they were very generous in what they gave to those groups." [Los Angeles Times, 11/15/12]
Fox Hosts And Limbaugh Agree With Romney, Claim Obama Bought Votes With Government Aid
Fox's Varney: Obama Was "Buying Votes With Taxpayer Money." On Fox & Friends, Fox Business host Stuart Varney said that in Europe, "politicians have bought votes by handing out goodies to the population" for generations. He continued, "Now look over here. What position are we in in America right here? I say we're just getting started. We're throwing the handouts out left, right, and center." Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade interrupted, saying: "Mitt Romney mentioned that yesterday. He said he couldn't win because all these other people were giving things away." Varney agreed, saying that American politicians are "buying votes with taxpayer money, handouts all over the place." [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 11/15/12, via Media Matters]
Limbaugh Takes Credit For Romney's Claim. Rush Limbaugh opened his radio show by taking credit for what Romney said:
LIMBAUGH: Mitt Romney is out there saying that Obama won the election because he was focused on certain members of his base coalition. He gave them extraordinary financial gifts from the government, and then he worked very aggressively to turn them out to vote. So Romney's out saying that Obama was Santa Claus. Where have we heard that before? And then, Bobby Jindal said, no, that's not the way to go, no, no, no. So Bobby Jindal's cutting my Santa Claus bit out from under me. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Rush Limbaugh Show, 11/15/12]
Conservative Media's Embrace Of Romney's Comments Continues Their Pattern Of Pitting Working Americans Against The Wealthy
In 2011, Fox Ran Week-Long Series To Label Safety Net Beneficiaries "Takers"
Fox Business Unveiled "Entitlement Nation: Makers Vs. Takers" In 2011. Fox Business' website introduced the network's "week-long theme of Entitlement Nation: Makers vs. Takers" in May 2011, featuring the following graphic:
[FoxBusiness.com, 5/20/11]
Fox's Dobbs And Barnes: "Most" People On "Government Handouts" Social Security And Medicare Are "Takers." On Lou Dobbs' Fox Business show, Peter Barnes and Dobbs determined that Social Security and Medicare recipients are "takers":
LOU DOBBS: All week this week, Fox Business presenting a special series called "Entitlement Nation, Makers Versus Takers," on the nation's growing dependence on government handouts. Peter Barnes and Ashley Webster here with two reports tonight. Peter, let's begin with you.
PETER BARNES: Well Lou, according to a report by the Urban Institute, most current Social Security and Medicare beneficiaries are takers, getting a lot more in benefits than they pay in payroll taxes. [Fox Business, Lou Dobbs Tonight, 5/23/11, via Media Matters]
Fox's Napolitano: "Dependency Is Turning This Country From A Nation Of Makers ... Into A Nation Of Takers." Fox's Andrew Napolitano said on his discontinued Fox Business show that America is becoming "a nation of takers who primarily consume other people's wealth" through government programs:
ANDREW NAPOLITANO: But first, we turn to the welfare state in America. It's entitlement nation week here on Fox Business. Too many Americans, nearly half, get money from the federal government, and nearly half Americans -- of Americans pay no taxes. And the feds give away more money than they collect in taxes. The money is doled out primarily in the form of entitlements like Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid. Not only are these problems unconst -- or, these programs unconstitutional, as the federal government is not authorized to take money from one group and give it to another, but they make Americans dependent upon big government. And dependency is turning this country from a nation of makers who come up with new ideas, who employ new people, who risk their wealth and create wealth, into a nation of takers who primarily consume other people's wealth. [Fox Business, Freedom Watch, 5/23/11, via Media Matters]
Fox's Asman: "Makers And Takers ... Embodies The Great Divide In This Country." Fox Business' David Asman said, "Kicking off tonight, for several weeks now, Scoreboard has been featuring a segment called 'Makers and Takers,' which we think embodies the great divide in this country between the folks who actually make things, and those who actually take what others make." Asman added that "most of the takers are in the government." [Fox Business, America's Nightly Scoreboard, 5/23/11, via Media Matters]
In 2012, Fox Continued To Disparage Working Americans As "Takers"
Fox's Bolling Hypes Conservative Group's Study To Pit "The Takers" Against "The Makers." On The Five, co-host Eric Bolling said that a study by the conservative Heritage Foundation showed that "the takers outweigh the makers." [Fox News, The Five, 2/9/12, via Media Matters]
Bolling: "People Who Are Takers Are Almost More Than 50 Percent Of America." Discussing comments made by radio host Rush Limbaugh, Bolling said on The Five: "Let's talk about what Rush said. He said it's a group that goes to work every day, works hard, pays their taxes, just wants to be -- wants to have a voice in the way things are going. The problem is that kind of defines the Tea Party. It looks like a conservative. It looks like the Tea Party. The problem is, it's almost not a majority anymore. People who are takers are almost more than 50 percent of America." [Fox News, The Five, 3/22/12, via Nexis]
Bolling Condemns "Takers" And "Makers" Rhetoric As "Class Warfare" -- Despite Pushing It Himself. Ignoring his own pitting of "makers" against "takers," Bolling said on The Five, seeming to refer to Occupy Wall Street protesters: "[T]his is class warfare. Anytime you highlight the takers, the makers, the haves, the have-nots, the 99 percent, the 1 percent, that's what they're playing. That's the game they're playing." [Fox News, The Five, 2/16/12, via Media Matters]
Fox's Dobbs: Occupy Wall Street Is "Forever Trying To Pit The Makers Against The Takers." In criticizing the children's animated film The Lorax for allegedly "demonizing the so-called 1 percent and espousing the virtue of green-energy policies," Fox Business host Lou Dobbs said, "Where have we all heard this before? Occupy Wall Street, forever trying to pit the makers against the takers." [Fox Business, Lou Dobbs Tonight, 2/21/12, via Media Matters]
FoxNews.com Writer Warns Of "America's Coming Civil War Between The Makers And The Takers." In a July 12 FoxNews.com column, Arthur Herman declared that "another civil war is coming, with the 2012 election as its Gettysburg":
Call it America's coming civil war between the Makers and the Takers.
On one side are those who create wealth, America's private sector--the very ones targeted by President Obama's tax hikes announced Monday.
On the other are the public employee unions; left-leaning intelligentsia who see the growth of government as index of progress; and the millions of Americans now dependent on government through a growing network of government transfer payments, from Medicaid and Social Security to college loans and corporate bailouts and handouts (think GM and Solyndra). [FoxNews.com, 7/12/12]
As A Candidate, Romney Disparaged 47 Percent Of Americans As "Dependent On Government"
At A Fundraiser, Romney Attacked 47 Percent Of Americans "Who Are Dependent Upon Government." In a September 17 post, Mother Jones reported that Romney, to an audience of donors, disparaged those who receive government benefits as people who "believe that they are victims" and that "government has a responsibility to care for them." Romney said: "I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives":
ROMNEY: There are 47 percent of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. All right, there are 47 percent who are with him, who are dependent upon government, who believe that they are victims, who believe the government has a responsibility to care for them, who believe that they are entitled to health care, to food, to housing, to you-name-it. That that's an entitlement. And the government should give it to them. And they will vote for this president no matter what.
I mean, the president starts off with 48, 49 -- he starts off with a huge number. These are people who pay no income tax. Forty-seven percent of Americans pay no income tax. So our message of low taxes doesn't connect. He'll be out there talking about tax cuts for the rich. I mean, that's what they sell every four years. And so my job is not to worry about those people. I'll never convince them they should take personal responsibility and care for their lives. [Mother Jones, 9/17/12]
Fox, Limbaugh, And Others Endorsed Romney's 47 Percent Comments
Fox's Hannity: In The End, Release Of 47 Percent Comments "Will Be Seen As A Godsend" For Romney. On his talk radio show, Fox host Sean Hannity declared that the release of Romney's 47 percent comments "will be seen as a godsend" for the presidential candidate. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Sean Hannity Show, 9/18/12]
Rush Limbaugh: Romney's 47 Percent Comments Are A "Golden Opportunity" And "Could Be A Slam Dunk" For Conservatism. Rush Limbaugh said on his radio show that the release of Romney's comments was a "golden opportunity" for "Romney and the entire conservative establishment, including the conservative media." [Premiere Radio Networks, The Rush Limbaugh Show, 9/18/12]
Fox's Stuart Varney: "Governor Romney Is Correct In That Latest Tape That's Been Released." On Fox & Friends, Stuart Varney voiced his support for the comments and said that Romney "identified the truth":
GRETCHEN CARLSON (co-host): I feel that you cannot use this election cycle comparing it historically. Because historically everyone says, well, a president is never reelected when unemployment's over 8 percent. But I think this time it's different. I think some of these numbers don't matter as much to the American people precisely because of the amount of government handouts that are currently being given out
STUART VARNEY: You mean half the population --
CARLSON: Yes.
STUART VARNEY: Governor Romney is correct in that latest tape that's been released. Half the population is living off the other half and will vote for President Obama. Therefore, the lousy economy doesn't matter.
VARNEY: I think what Governor Romney did was identify the truth. This is an entitlement nation. That is accurate. [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 9/18/12, via Media Matters]
Fox's Brian Kilmeade: "I Would Love" For Romney's Remarks "To Be A Message For Any Candidate On The Stump. Fox & Friends co-host Brian Kilmeade applauded Romney's comments, saying that he'd like them to be "a message for any candidate on the stump." [Fox News, Fox & Friends, 9/18/12]
Fox's Dick Morris: Romney Gets It Right. On FoxNews.com, Dick Morris wrote that Romney stated a "fundamental truth" when talking about entitlements:
[T]he fact remains that an Obama reelection would turn the tide psychologically in America from the land of upward mobility through hard work and initiative and toward a country akin to Greece: dependent on government aid in the form of a subsidy and government handouts.
By stating this fundamental truth, albeit off the record, Romney has done a service for which he should be praised not excoriated. [FoxNews.com, 9/18/12]
Drudge Report: "Romney Gets Real: Obama Supporters 'Dependent On Government.' " The Drudge Report promoted the video, billing it as "Romney Gets Real":
[Drudge Report, 9/18/12]
Fox Nation: "Romney Gets Real." Fox Nation echoed the Drudge Report with a similar headline:
[Fox Nation, 9/17/12]
Fox And Limbaugh Returned To Attacking Working Americans After The Election, Claiming They Voted In Order To Get Stuff
Rush Limbaugh: Obama Won Because "People Are Not Going To Vote Against Santa Claus, Especially If The Alternative Is Being Your Own Santa Claus." On his radio show, Rush Limbaugh posited that the election was not a rejection of conservatism but rather an embrace of "Santa Claus":
LIMBAUGH: Let me tell you, small things beat big things yesterday. Conservatism, in my humble opinion, did not lose last night. It's just very difficult to beat Santa Claus. It is practically impossible to beat Santa Claus. People are not going to vote against Santa Claus especially if the alternative is being your own Santa Claus. [Premiere Radio Networks, The Rush Limbaugh Show, 11/7/12]
Bill O'Reilly: "The Voters, Many Of Them Feel Like The Economic System Is Stacked Against Them, And They Want Stuff." Fox News' Bill O'Reilly explained Obama's likely election-night victory by deriding half of the voting public as people "who want stuff" and "things." He added: "And who is going to give them things? President Obama." He went on to say:
O'REILLY: The voters, many of them feel that the economic system is stacked against them, and they want stuff. You're going to see a tremendous Hispanic vote for President Obama. Overwhelming black vote for President Obama. And women will probably break President Obama's way. People feel that they are entitled to things, and which candidate, between the two, is going to give them things? [Fox News, America's Election Headquarters, 11/6/12]
Eric Bolling Accused Half Of Americans Of Voting For "Class Warfare." On Fox News' The Five, co-host Eric Bolling said he couldn't believe 50 percent of Americans would want four more years of "the class warfare guy":
BOLLING: We can't blame President Obama. We knew who he was. For four years, we've known exactly what he is. He's the class warfare guy, he's divisive, he's the maker versus taker guy. I have to sit back and go, Americans -- 50 percent of people who voted voted for more of that? Four more years of that? It's our own fault, people. [Fox News, The Five, 11/7/12]
Monica Crowley: Election Results Show More Americans "Now Are Dependent On Government Than Not." Saying that the election results "point to something much bigger" than the quality of the campaigns, Fox News contributor Monica Crowley claimed that President Obama and the left have "accelerated this process of changing the very nature and character of the country where more people now are dependent on government than not. He tried to accelerate us to that tipping point. The results last night, I think, show that perhaps he's gotten us there." [Fox News, America Live, 11/7/12]

Facebook is advancing

You may have already heard about Facebook's new look as they change the social experience for users. While still focused on the Individual as the center of the experience, they are adding more capabilities. In particular, I'm amused that they are finally catching onto the idea of multiple tabs each per application, although they have not moved to free form tabs like developerWorks Spaces, netvibes and other sites. Separating the app to a different tab helps to create shorter, cleaner front pages, by compartmentalizing and creating subtopics. However, it is better if it is not limited to a single application; after all you might have several tools and widgets to focus around the same topic.
PS: I'm trying out AddThis, a service that lets users redistribute any URL to over 30 other social sites, saving me the trouble of adding links to digg, del.icio.us, etc. manually.

Graded readers are great for students of English. But students hardly ever exploit them fully. They hardly ever listen to the enclosed CD or do the exercises at the end of the reader. What should be done to help the students get more out of the reader?
I tried to create this
There is the story "The Kiss" where the text and audio are connected into a film.
And the comprehension exercises are turned into games and thus the students can check their comprehension in a way that is fun.
I hope they will like it.
