"Easy to install"
By Debo from Knoxville, TN
We needed to cover three windows ( 110" in width) and wanted the blinds inside the window frame not on the outside. I needed two people to help install but just for marking the holes for installing the brackets. We like them for sure but we might not have gotten the blinds that also drop from the top because there is a lot of extra string that we have to hide. I guess we really only needed blinds that rise from the bottom up. We have the only lowered the top a few times and realistically may never do that again.View this product

50 states in less than 50 years
When I took a cruise to Alaska on the Disney Wonder in June, not only was I fulfilling a bucket-list dream to see the 49th state – the largest state by area became official on Jan. 3, 1959 – I was making a check mark on another list: stepping foot in my 50th.
Being a travel editor is indeed a dream job, and I've been lucky enough to travel quite a bit during the more than 6 years I've been in the position. But the truth is, I did 95 percent of my wandering before I started getting paid to do so, and as far as visiting these United States, I'd been to 48 of them before taking on this gig.
Don't get me wrong – I'm certainly not complaining about what is an amazing job, and I'm lucky even to have one, I know. And two of the toughest states to get to – Hawaii and Alaska – were indeed ones I got to check out courtesy of The Denver Post.
How did I make it to the other 48? Well, moving around helped a bit. I was raised in Pittsburgh, Pa., and lived in Chicago for a while. I then lived in Naples, Fla., for a few years before coming to Denver about 18 years ago. Being in those well-situated places meant that it was easier to get around to the surrounding states.
It also helps that I never met a road trip I didn't like – once even going along on a non-stop round-trip trek from Pittsburgh to Chicago to help a friend move a couch. If you've ever done that one, you know it's about as boring and flat as it gets. And I've done the round-trip drive from Pittsburgh to Florida several times, and the Florida to Denver once — enough to know I don't ever want to do it again.
But I don't consider just driving through as "visiting" a state – I only counted it if I actually spent overnight time in one of its major cities. I also was fortunate to have friends get married or live in some of the New England states, and when I lived in Florida, music was a driving force – pun intended – to getting me to places such as Louisiana and Alabama to visit venues to see bands perform.
And as typically dysfunctional as my childhood was, kudos to my parents for at least trying to make family vacations in neighboring states happen for me and my sister.
Over the next couple of months, I hope to revisit each state in this blog, trying to conjure up my memories of what I liked or not, and find out if some of the things I remember, especially from places such as Wildwood, N.J., from my childhood, are still around, and how they've changed. I'm going to do it in alphabetical order, so first up: Alabama.
I hope you'll come along for the ride.

Kelly, Pierce Lead Huskers to Series Win
Lincoln - A home run off the bat of freshman Pat Kelly propelled the Nebraska baseball team (31-19, 11-9 Big Ten) to victory for the second straight game over the Minnesota Golden Gophers (28-24, 10-10 Big Ten), as the Huskers held on to a 8-7 win at Hawks Field on Saturday afternoon. After dropping a two-run homer in the series opener last night, Kelly broke a 7-7 tie in the bottom of the sixth inning on a solo shot into the right-field bullpen. Brandon Pierce then came into the game and retired nine straight Gophers to pick up his second save of the season.
Batting in the leadoff spot for just the third time this season, Kelly led the Huskers with a career-high four hits in five at bats. His seven home runs this season are the most by a NU freshman since Alex Gordon hit seven in 2003.
The Huskers are now tied with Michigan State for fourth in the Big Ten standing, while Penn State and Indiana are each one-game ahead and tied for second with 12-8 records. Ohio State sits sixth in the standing (11-10), while the Gophers are on the outside looking in with a 10-10 record. Purdue secured at least a share of the Big Ten title today with its 14-3 win over Michigan.
The Husker hitters knocked around Minnesota's starter for the second straight game, as DJ Snelton lasted just 3.2 innings after giving up seven runs, all earned, on eight hits, both of which tied career highs against Snelton.
All but one starter in NU's lineup recorded a hit, while the first four hitters accounted for five RBI's and Cory Burleson knocked in a pair of runs from the 9-hole with a bases-loaded double in the fourth.
Speaking the fourth, the Huskers continued to light up opposing pitching with a seven-run fourth on Saturday and have now outscored their opponents 79-17 in the fourth inning this season. After Kash Kalkowski was retired to start the inning, Richard Stock, Josh Scheffert and Rich Sanguinetti each slapped singles to load the bases. Kale Kiser then drew a four-pitch walk to score NU's first run of the game and tie the contest at 1-1. Burleson followed with his RBI double and Kelly singled to put runners on the corners with one out and Michael Pritchard up. The Huskers kept the pressure up with a squeeze that scored Burleson and Pritchard reached first. Associate Head Coach Will Bolt then dialed up a double steal from the third-base coaching box, giving NU runners at second and third with still only one down and Chad Christensen at the plate. The move paid off, as Christensen delivered his 45th RBI of the season with a sacrifice fly that scored Kelly from third. Pritchard scored the seventh run of the inning on a double by Kalkowski in his second at bat of the inning.
Trailing 7-1 going into the sixth, the Gophers came storming back with six runs on six hits. With only one run across and two out, Bobby Juan drew a walk to put runners at first and second for No. 7 hitter Michael Handel. UM strung together four straight hits, including two doubles, to tie the game at 7-7 going to the bottom of the frame.
After Burleson popped out to start the inning, Kelly lifted a 2-1 pitch off Dustin Klabunde into the visitor's bullpen to put the Huskers back out in front 8-7. Pierce entered the game in relief for the first time since March 31 and mowed down the Gophers, including a pair of strikeouts looking in the ninth, to secure a series win for the Huskers.
The Huskers are now in position to sweep their first Big Ten series tomorrow when the two teams meet at 1:05 p.m. at Hawks Field. NU is yet to announce its starting pitcher, while Minnesota is scheduled to throw senior righty Austin Lubinsky.
The Huskers have already faced Lubinsky this season, when the two teams met at the Dairy Queen Classic on March 4 at the Metrodome. Lubinsky went just 3.0 innings in the 10-3 loss, as he gave up seven runs on 10 hits.

My Favorite Flirts is a feature that lets you reach your favorite Flirts easily from My Account or on 1-800-TO-FLIRT.Manage My Favorites
(4 Reviews)
Some girls want a romantic relationship, all hearts and flowers and
candy kisses. I'd rather have one of those brief encounters, the
kind that leave me with cum dripping down my thighs, covered in sweat
and weak around the knees. The kind where we fuck until we're
both sore, then fuck a little more after that.
Is that
the kind of girl you want? The kind who will talk about
anything, the kind who can be a little or a lot kinky, the kind who
likes all those things that your girlfriend doesn't, that your wife
thinks are disgusting. I'm that girl. Call me and I'll be
your BEST brief encounter ever.

Hey there, and welcome to my online diary.
It's just an aide memoire of whatever I happen to have done lately, be that going on holiday or watching a movie.
Where I've said that I hate something, it's probably because I care about it enough to want better for it.
I am also a Christian, but I think everyone defines that box differently.
Agreement is not required, but friendliness helps. :)

Some things I feel proud about:
Still photography
I've travelled a bit
I like diversity
I'm a good listener
I can spell millennium
I buy fair trade coffee and free range eggs
I exercise
I'm positive-minded
Honesty and doing the right thing are more important to me than anything else, although I consistently fail at them
Some things I'm still working on:
All of the above
I have difficulty remembering names and faces
I have little sense of geographical direction
Time-management (I need deadlines)
I rarely get to bed early
I'm not very good at making things happen
I sometimes get annoyed at computers
I don't like confronting people
I find it hard to tell people 'no'
Sometimes people disbelieve me
I was unpopular at all my schools, and had to move because I wouldn't hit anyone back
I find prayer difficult
I sometimes mistrust God
I've never seen Lord Of The Rings or The Empire Strikes Back, so please don't tell me what happens. :)
Neither here nor there:
I like plain white or loud colours
I'm always busy
I'm quiet in a crowd
I don't like using the phone
I've never been on a date
Yes, that has always hurt
This is what I look like when I'm very tired:

Current favourite Bible verses:
I may promise life to a good man, but if he starts thinking that his past goodness is enough and begins to sin, I will not remember any of the good he did. He will die because of his sins.
Ezekiel 33:13
I may warn an evil man that he is going to die, but if he stops sinning and does what is right and good - for example, if he returns the security he took for a loan or gives back what he stole - if he stops sinning and follows the laws that give life, he will not die, but live.
Ezekiel 33:14-15
If he changes the way he thinks and acts, forgive him.
Luke 17:3b
The word of truth lasts forever,
but lies last only a moment.
Proverbs 12:19
Be honest and you show that you have reverence for the LORD;
be dishonest and you show that you do not.
Proverbs 14:2
You should each judge your own conduct. If it is good, then you can be proud of what you yourself have done, without having to compare it with what someone else has done.

HOUSTON -- It's back to the drawing board for Stephen Curry.
Curry was the first contestant to shoot and went 0-for-5 from the second rack, dooming him to his second career three-point contest elimination Saturday night in Houston.
The Warriors' sharpshooter, who leads the field with a .449 regular season three-point percentage, made two from the first rack, three from the third rack atop the key, all five from the fourth rack and four from the fifth rack for a total of 17.
"The second rack killed me," said Curry. "I was (disappointed) at first, I mean, you want to win. It's a competition and you want to have a good showing. But 17 was a good number for me. Can't be mad at that."
Curry finished with 17 in the final round of his 2010 loss to Paul Pierce, too.
When did he feel himself heat up?
"That top rack," he said. Interestingly, it was the that top rack that burned him in 2010, when he hit just one.
Matt Bonner proved the best for the West, advancing to the finals with a 19. Kyrie Irving advanced from the East with an 18, and saved his best for last.
Had Irving's money ball fallen on the final rack of the final round, he would have tied the all-time single-round record of 25, shared by Craig Hodges ('86) and Jason Kapono ('08).
"That was a fun final," Curry said. "Kyrie got hot. For two guys to be in the 20s in the second round, that's a good final."
Curry admitted a few butterflies before the event, but said he had plenty of warm-ups and felt comfortable on the court. So much for his practice round score of 27 achieved back in Oakland.
"Hopefully next year I can come back and win it," Curry said, adding that he hopes to compete every season. "I'm 0-for-2 so far."
HOUSTON -- It's back to the drawing board for Stephen Curry.

3Day Weekend needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 138 designs submitted by 35 freelance designers.
3Day Weekend
Initially starting as a joint FX and discount card for travelers. We are looking to expand into a lifestyle brand spreading across all modern media e.g. TV, digital magazine, etc.
Think; Lonely Planet, Virgin, Easy Group
We are looking to become a lifestyle brand for people who want to experience everything the world has to offer e.g. different cultures and experiences. Whilst also promoting a positive change within the world e.g. Volunteering and environmentally friendly living.
I want the company to be cool, un-pretentious, modern, un-corporate, global, bright and fun
18-29, both male and female. Many will be university educated who have taken a gap year or a sabbatical. People who are post-modern travelers wanting to see the world and experience everything it has to offer.
-The logo itself needs to be iconic and instantly recognizable through the font and writing style itself e.g. Facebook, Google, Virgin. Not through an actual logo e.g. BMW, Ferrari.
-It will sometimes be shortened to 3DW so they are especially important (possibly a pop art/ comic book style font). It could have some form of design to it though e.g. youtube, lonely planet.
Should be written - 3Day Weekend
-Not black and white. It needs to have a colour scheme associated with it. I like the idea of an electric blue lettering (similar to skype) with a silver outline. Must be a modern shiny logo
-The type of brands I am thinking along the lines of are; Superdry, Cobra (beer), Havaiana, Absolut Vodka, Local Celebrity, Victorias Secrets. All brands that are not too serious and corporate, but are instantly recognizable through its logo, colour scheme and design.
Other work such as further website, logo and branding design will follow with preference to the winning designer.
Thank you and Good Luck

TheDatabase Explorer WindowNow that you have a workspace, and a connection established, it is timeto take a quick look around the options available to you in theDatabase Explorer window. By default this window is located in thelower left hand corner, and on start up looks like this:
As you can see this has a tool bar as well as the Connections folder.Let's take a quick look at the options you have on the tool bar.Traveling from Left to right, you have:
- Collapse all:This allows you to quickly collapse all the folders you have opened inyour explorer, as shown in the above dialog.
- Link:This allows you to link data in the explorer to an open editor.
- SQL Scrapbook:This lets you open up a file that saves the SQL you aretesting.
- Disconnect:Will disconnect any connection you have highlighter.
- New Connection:Will take you to the connection tool, so you can add more connectionsand Databases to your Database Explorer.
- SQL Editor:This lets you go straight to the SQL Editor Window.
- ExportConnection: This lets you export an existing connection toXML. Makes it easy to deploy connections to multiple machines.
- ImportConnection: Allows you to import the connection settingsfrom an XML file. So if, for instance, someone were to export theconnection settings for a development database, rather than having toget all the information to fill the connection string yourself, all youhave to do is import the connection.
Now let's open up our connections folder in this window. We willbe looking at the stores_demo database. So first we open theConnections folder, and then the stores_demo connection folder, andfinally the stores_demo database folder. And when the folders are open you will see something like the following:
As you can see, each connection tells you what type of instance you areconnecting too, in my case all of my instances are 11.10, thoughDeveloper Workbench reports them as 11.0. You can see thatthe Database folderhas three sub-folders. Those Folders are:
- Roles : Handles Roles for the database
- Schemas : All database objects filtered byuser_name.
- Users : User permissions for the database.

When you are a stranger who comes into a new town, walks up to the mayor, slaps him in the mouth, hoist his wife over your shoulder and stroll out of town (kicking a couple dogs on the way out), it's safe to say a few of the local words will have some choice words to say about you. It's part of the whole "slap the mayor and take his wife" game; it should theoretically thicken one's skin. Unless you are one of the new Sonics owners.
The Oklahoma crew trying to take the team away, while pleading their (failed) case to have court proceedings about the "move" held in Denver rather than Seattle, said their sensitive virgin eyes have been probed by those nasty, nasty emails.
While arguing their case with the AAA, the Sonics filed papers citing "disturbing fringe elements" surrounding the case, and even claimed the team's lawyers had "received threats and other highly charged communications" after taking the case.
Yes. Highly charged communication. This will happen when you stroll into Seattle and slap the mayor in the mouth while stealing his wife.

Britney Spears to Receive GLAAD's Vanguard Award
The LGBTQ media advocacy group GLAAD will honor pop icon Britney Spears with its Vanguard Award during its 29th Annual GLAAD Media Awards in Los Angeles on April 12.
"An irrefutable icon, Britney Spears has entertained the world while also embodying the spirit of GLAAD's Vanguard Award by speaking out on significant issues that face her fans - from the Dream Act to anti-transgender bills in Texas," Sarah Kate Ellis, president and CEO of GLAAD, said, according to Entertainment Weekly. "She is a force in the music world who has used her global platform to share messages of love and acceptance, something that the world needs today more than ever."
Spears will join Vanguard Award winners like Jennifer Lopez, Cher, Elizabeth Taylor, Janet Jackson, Demi Lovato, Patricia Arquette and more.
The responded to the news on Instagram, sharing a photo and writing the caption:
"Honored to be receiving the Vanguard Award at the @GLAAD Media Awards this year! The LGBTQ community means the absolute world to me and inspires me every day. I am proud to be an ally and I will continue to support equality and acceptance for all!"
In 2015, the "Slumber Party" singer released a video for Spirit Day in which she promoted the anti-bullying campaign and organized a meet-and-greet session for LGBTQ fans. She also joined fellow pop stars like Selena Gomez, Pink, RuPaul, Troye Sivan and more for the track "Hands," written with GLAAD, that remembered the 49 victims of the Pulse gay club shooting in Orlando.
Additionally, last year, Spears penned a love letter to the LGBTQ community for Billboard's Pride series, where she shared her appreciation for the community's support.
"I have a secret to share with you. You see it's actually you that lifts me up. The unwavering loyalty. The lack of judgment. The unapologetic truth. Acceptance! Your stories are what inspire me, bring me joy, and make me and my sons strive to be better people," she wrote.

Systematic, Explicit Phonics Along with Multisensory Vowel Tools will Help Dyslexic Children Learn to Read.Posted in how to teach dyslexic children to read, phonics helps dyslexia, teaching children with disabilities how to read | Comments Off on Systematic, Explicit Phonics Along with Multisensory Vowel Tools will Help Dyslexic Children Learn to Read.
do, indeed,
face challenges
that other students
do not face.
Parents often ask, "How do I know if my child is dyslexic?" or "How can I teach my dyslexic child to read at home?" Systematic, explicit phonics along with multisensory vowel tools will help dyslexic children learn to read.
It's not hard to understand the anxiety held by parents of dyslexic children. This is because the true dyslexic student has a disability that is neurological in origin; his brain's ability to process the signals it receives from the eyes and ears is impaired. However, even though only a small percentage of children are truly dyslexic (it is estimated that only between 4 to 8 percent of the entire population is dyslexic, and only a portion of those people are children), for those students who have been medically diagnosed with dyslexia, their reading challenges often seem overwhelming. The good news is: according to the National Reading Panel, systematic phonics training with multisensory helps can enable a dyslexic student to learn to read.
Moms, Dads, if your child has dyslexia, or you suspect that he/she does because he struggles in reading, you should, of course, have him/her tested by a qualified, medical diagnostician to give you a verified conclusion. However, whether your child is dyslexic or even if he just struggles in reading, you will want to tutor your child one-on-one using a step-by-step phonics curriculum that follows a systematic, explicit phonics-first lesson presentation such as the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum. So let's examine dyslexia a little more closely to discover what a systematic, explicit phonics program will do for the dyslexic student.
Fortunately, as troublesome as it is for dyslexic children to learn material when using words and sometimes symbols, it should also be noted that dyslexic children have positive attributes that other students do not have. God always provides us with ways of coping and conquering, so it is with delight that we now know with certainty that the neurological differences in dyslexic children have given many of them a definite edge in visual, spatial, and physical co-ordination as well as in lateral thinking abilities. Because of this edge, a great number of dyslexic children have grown into adults that have become exceptionally victorious in a broad assortment of professions. For example, one famous architect's practice gives preference to employing people who are dyslexic because of their strong spatial awareness and lateral thinking abilities.
However, it is true that dyslexic children may have trouble learning to read because of disabilities in one or more of the following areas: auditory/language, visual/perceptual, and visual/motor (eye/hand). As a result, the folks at Candy 4WAY Phonics want parents and teachers to become familiar with the aspects of our phonics curriculum that will, most definitely, benefit the dyslexic learner.
With that in mind, let me say that what is automatic (after practice) for the non-dyslexic student (that of eye tracking, writing, and letter identification), a dyslexic student can also process, but these skills do not come about for him/her "automatically." In most cases, because of the different ways in which his/her brain processes information, the dyslexic child must think about and think through each process.
While tutoring dyslexic students in reading, I have observed that no two children are alike. However, I have also discovered that giving one-on-one systematic, explicit phonics tutoring majorly improves the reading skills of the dyslexic student. Although systematic, explicit phonics cannot eliminate dyslexic trials, a strong systematic, synthetic phonics curriculum will help a dyslexic student work through his/her trials, one step at a time, and with patience and perseverence finish the task of learning to read.
In fact, it has been confirmed that when dyslexic students receive consistent, one-on-one explicit, systematic phonics training, that the training brings about "significant enhancement" in the use of the brain's "left hemisphere parietal cortex, which governs reading," as well as in "several areas in the right side of the brain." Moreover, it has now been confirmed that explicit, systematic phonics tutoring improves the word skills of the dyslexic child in addition to bringing about actual changes in his/her brain's activity.
The Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum is a systematic, explicit, phonics-first COMPLETE curriculum that offers several key presentations to help dyslexic students improve their reading skills. These key presentations can be observed through the following questions that target eight key areas of difficulties for the dyslexic student as well as explain how the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum offsets dyslexic difficulties in all eight areas.
The Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum
*What is the first difficulty we are talking about? Dyslexic students often have trouble learning and remembering the sounds represented by each of the alphabet letters.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? We begin phonics lessons by using basic alphabet charts that rhyme coupled with fun pictures that begin with the sound represented by each of the alphabet letters. We present the alphabet letters in rhyming sets of four, making it easy to fold one set of rhyming letters together with another set. From there, we filter out the pictures while leaving the rhyme to enable children to recite the sounds of each letter while looking at just the letter. After mastery with this skill has occurred, the student then sounds the letters in mixed-up order. If a student forgets the sound of a letter, it is easy for him to look back at the original rhyming chart to help him remember the sound represented by that particular letter.
*What is the second difficulty we are talking about? Dyslexic students often have problems blending together letter sounds and phonograms from left to right to form words.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? Unlike other phonics programs, we begin our blending lessons using a solid foundation of synthetic phonics by teaching children to blend each beginning consonant with each of the vowels before adding on a third letter. In turn, each lesson is assigned to just one consonant. Moreover, each lesson is mastered before proceeding on to the next lesson. In this way, when a dyslexic student has difficulty blending the initial sounds of a word, he can easily look back at the lesson that taught exactly that consonant/vowel blend. Also, by beginning all blending lessons with just the first two letters of a word, a dyslexic student also gains the skill of reading words from left to right. We have discovered that by putting the vowels in red, it makes it easier for a student to blend the left-positioned consonant into the right-positioned vowel. (Note – this blending skill is called "synthetic phonics").
*What is the third difficulty we are talking about? Many dyslexic students have difficulty remembering and distinguishing between the simpler words on the Dolch Word List such as that, or, soon, and, away, big and blue. However, non-dyslexic students share this difficulty with dyslexic students across America. This is because most students in America are taught to memorize these words as "whole words" in contrast to learning to sound them out and to blend the sounds of their letters together from left to right.
Regrettably, these whole-word memorization techniques were adopted as far back as 1936 when their author, Mr. Edward William Dolch, chose to redefine the meaning of "sight words." Sadly, after redefining "sight words," he was able to amass a large list of new "sight words" and to convince teachers that memorizing these 315 words as "whole words" would speed up the learning-to-read process. His idea didn't work then and it doesn't work today, which accounts for the fact that more than 8 million students in grades 4 through 12 are now struggling in reading. However, the task of memorizing these words as whole words has proven especially difficult for the dyslexic student.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? Unlike the Guided Reading Programs used in our American public classrooms that consistently present an incorrect definition for a "sight word", we present sight words using their correct definition. Let me explain.
Dyslexic students often have difficulty reading and remembering all of the 315 so-called "sight words" presented within the American public school's Guided Reading Program. At Candy 4WAY Phonics, we feel it is so sad that the look/n/say advocates who have created the Guided Reading Curricula have adopted a distorted meaning of what is termed a "sight word." In so doing, they have overwhelmed dyslexic students (as well as all students) with a never-ending list of sight words to memorize as whole words.
How have they done this?
The American public school's Guided Reading Program refused to follow the original definition of a sight word when they chose to adopt Edward Dolch's definition of a sight word that he "made up" back in 1936. Dolch redefined sight words as "service words" (high frequency words printed aggressively over and over and over and over and over in the dumbed-down readers of his day and of our day). Mr. Dolch claimed that these 315 words cannot be sounded out using the tools of implicit phonics. He was correct in that statement, because all words get jumbled in a student's mind whenever implicit phonics (embedded phonics) is put forth in a reading curriculum. Unfortunately, many educators back then as well as many educators today do not know the difference between implicit phonics and explicit phonics.
I am reasonably certain, however, that Mr. Dolch most likely did know the difference, since he was very careful in his materials to emphasize the term "implicit phonics" and use it as an excuse to redefine "sight words."
Sadly, many teachers back in 1936 and many more teachers since then have failed to see why implicit phonics (embedded phonics) mixed with look/n/say methods are failing to teach our students how to read every word on every page.
By presenting these 315 words over and over and over and over and over and over again in Guided Reading Readers, look/n/say teachers have assigned their students with the overwhelming, boring, frustrating task of memorizing all 315 words as "whole" words.
Even sadder still is the fact that after developing the habit of learning words by memorizing them as "whole words," students see no other option but to continue to memorize all words in this manner which would include anywhere between 40,000 and 100,000 words throughout their lifetime. This, of course, becomes an impossible task for hundreds of thousands of students across our nation. Yet, this is the status quo for today's Guided Reading offspring.
This is so unfortunate, because most of these 315 words can be sounded out using the natural rules of systematic, explicit phonics. Oh! If only our children were given the chance to learn all the sounds of the letters and phonograms within the framework of an explicit, systematic phonics curriculum, how our literacy rates in this country would soar! In fact, by returning to the original definition of a sight word as presented to our children back in the late 1800's and early 1900's, we will see that there are really only about 58 geniune sight words in all, and even these 58 words can be sounded out using the sounding/out symbols presented in the ordinary American dictionary.
So what is the original definition of a sight word?
The ORIGINAL definition of a sight word is this: Any word that cannot be phonetically sounded out using systematic, explicit phonetic rules is a sight word.
Once again, in that respect, there are really only about 58 genuine sight words (not 315), and the Candy 4WAY Phonics Program is the only program on the market that limits its sight-word vocabulary to just these 58 genuine sight words.
In addition, we integrate these 58 sight words slowly and methodically into the curriculum, printing them in blue lettering, all the way through to a 4th-grade reading level, so that it is not overwhelming for a dyslexic student (or for any other student) to remember these 58 genuine sight words. Moreover, the Candy 4WAY Phonics Program even teaches students how to sound out these 58 genuine sight words using the sounding/out symbols presented in the ordinary American dictionary.
(Note – There are phonics programs on the market today that claim that they do not use ANY sight words in their lessons, but this is only because these programs only carry students through to a 2nd or 3rd grade reading level. Only by omitting phonics readers from their curriculum, readers that bring children into sentence structures that contain complex connective words (as all third grade and higher students should be learning to read on a weekly basis) have these phonics curriculums been able to boast that they have no need to teach these 58 genuine sight words in their program.)
However, as children progress into a 4th grade reading level and higher, they will, sooner or later, encounter these 58 words that do not follow the phonetic rules. Therefore, Candy 4WAY Phonics doesn't skirt the existence of these words. They present these words within their phonics lessons in blue lettering, slowly and methodically, beginning with the second level of the Candy 4WAY Phonics Program, so that children can easily distinguish, remember and sound out all 58 of these genuine sight words.
*What is the fourth difficulty we are talking about? Dyslexic students often have difficulty learning and distinguishing between the short vowel sounds.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? The Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum introduces the short vowel sounds using multisensory pictures that illustrate the pronunciation of these five sounds. These illustrations help dyslexic children (as well as all children) to remember, punch and differentiate between the short vowel sounds. In addition, to help children easily locate the vowel in a word, we begin our lessons by putting all the vowels in red lettering.
*What is the fifth difficulty we are talking about? Not all, but some dyslexic students reverse the letter order in words. For example, they may write the word saw instead of the word was.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? The Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum teaches students to blend together the sounds of the words from left to right by beginning its blending lessons using a "ladder" approach rather than jumping into a word family approach (Note – word families are employed in the program only after initial left/right blending (a synthetic phonics skill) is mastered.
*What is the sixth difficulty we are talking about? Dyslexic students sometimes have difficulty reading or writing words (and even phrases) from left to right.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? In the beginning blending lessons, our program presents the short vowels in the color of red. This helps children to begin the reading process from the left side of the word blending the initial consonant into the red vowel that follows. Likewise, each new letter sound or blend is also first presented in red throughout all 100 lessons. By distinguishing between the beginning of a word and the rest word at the very beginning of their reading adventure, students are able to continue seeing words in parts: first, the beginning of the word; second, the middle of the word; third, the end of a word. This also helps children later on when they begin the process of breaking words into syllables.
*What is the seventh difficulty we are talking about? Dyslexic students sometimes drop a word from a previous line down into the line they are reading. This is the result of eye tracking problems.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? The Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum explains to parents and teachers how to use a pointer to help children track words from left to right. A pointer (always held by the instructor) helps a child's eyes to focus where the teacher wants them focused.
*What is the eighth difficulty we are talking about? Dyslexic students often become discouraged during the reading process. They realize they have limits that other students do not have, so it's easy to see why they would become discouraged at times.
*How does the Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum work to offset this difficulty? In our main instructional book for parents as well as teachers, we give the informational tools necessary to cope with a child's discouragement. We have placed the explanation for these simple tools within the framework of two chapters. The first chapter is entitled: Create a Correct Reading Atomosphere. The second chapter is entitled: The Patience-Approach Formula. At Candy 4WAY Phonics, we have witnessed tremendous surges of encouragement within children when these tools are put into practice on a consistent basis.
If you are the parent of a dyslexic student and you're looking for an affordable curriculum to use, one-on-one, with your child, check us out. The Candy 4WAY Phonics Curriculum can be purchased in one of three affordable packages starting with our INSTANT DOWNLOAD package of just $9.97 for a COMPLETE Phonics Curriculum.

City of Lincoln
Mayor's Office
2009 Media Releases
Mayor Chris Beutler today announced that the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 will provide $408,803 for a summer jobs program for low-income youth ages 14 to 24. SummerWorks will fund about 200 jobs with the City of Lincoln and other public and nonprofit agencies in Lancaster and Saunders counties.
"The nationwide unemployment rate for 16- to 24-year olds not attending school is 70 percent," said Mayor Beutler. "This is a great opportunity for young people to gain experience at meaningful jobs and to increase their income. It also helps the City get summer work done during a tough budget year."
Applicants must meet eligibility requirements for the jobs, which will last from May through September. The application is available online on the City Web site, lincoln.ne.gov - click on "employment" then Summer Youth Employment Application. For more information, call 441-4922.
The federal workforce stimulus also is providing the City of Lincoln with about $516,000 more in Workforce Investment Act (WIA) funds. Some of this money will be used to cover tuition and books for those training for a first career or re-training for a new career.
"Our local economy continues to fare better than the national economy, but we also have experienced many layoffs, and many families are struggling," Beutler said. "These funds will be used quickly and effectively to assist those most impacted by the recession."
More information on these WIA funds is available by calling 441-7111.

For what it's worth, looking at your squad I'm not sure you need Arenas to do that well. It's alarmingly solid.
Did you post this before or after I decided to take a flier on Oden?
Quote from: Rob on October 28, 2009, 02:50 PMDid you post this before or after I decided to take a flier on Oden?I thought your squad was on steroids before Oden I guess, I didn't know anyone added him today because after my last post this AM I ran off and got married.
My biggest concern is Brand, though at least this year I drafted him where he should have gone. If he returns to 20/10 and a pair of blocks then I'm really happy.
So I've basically been without my 2nd, 3rd, and 5th round picks all year long.I'm starting to think Brent drafted my team.
My team hasn't even begun to get going yet, I'm surprised I'm not in last.
And Steve Nash is my new basketball man-crush.

Happy Friday!
If you picked this week and next week as your vacation to cape cod, boy are you in luck.
Our weather has been perfect; sun and low humidity.
But the traffic is unreal too. There was traffic on a thursday, 3 miles backup on sagamore bridge.
Ice cream stands on the cape are doing a great business.
(this is from Twin Acres Ice Cream, Sandwich, MA)
Town Neck Beach, Sandwich, MA. In the distance, a barge entering the cape cod canal
I love summer.

I wanted to try these, but $6.00? Wow, pricey.
Last week I posted a pic on twitter of this new salad creation I found at Whole Foods.
From the salad bar at Whole Foods, a scoop of the new Mediterranean salad, with some feta cheese,
some raisins, and nuts. So good.
Finally one that tastes good, all natural, AND is sugar free. Found Grady's Cold Brew at Whole Foods
in the milk aisle.
The organic white peaches are at Whole Foods and look amazing and huge. Time for peach pie.
My latest craving....(from trader joe's).
Cape Cod finally has a Chipotle! I am so happy! Love their food.
Have you tried these? The bottom of the bag is the best part, all those salted rosemary bits!
Loved these!
Yes, they are good! And addictive.
It's ok.
I hope they make an unsweetened version!
Finding this KT Tape has been life changing for me.
With my bad knees, I need lots of support when I workout and stand in the kitchen for a long time.
This supportive athletic tape truly works.
I was very skeptical, but after learning how to apply it correctly, I am hooked!
And it's waterproof, I've already tested in the ocean and the pool!
Best find in months.

Still Got It: Ladies That Could Get The Business…Even Though Their Careers Fell Wayyyy Off
Just because these ladies aren't really making moves anymore doesn't mean we won't give them a shoulder to cry on.
People think that just because stars lose their luster, they suddenly become less hot. No, sir! Not at all. Don't sleep on how fine these ladies have stayed even though they're not platinum selling artists or making millions in Hollywood. It's all good. We got you.
Vivica A. Fox – We'll admit, she kind of looks a little creepy these days. But she could get a nostalgia chop just off of how hot she was in Booty Call and Independence Day. Those were the days.
Ashanti –It's been a long time since she's had a hit. All she does is get chopped down by Nelly. Lucky dog.
Stacey Dash – We always knew she was hot. But now that she's gotten kicked off of her show and doesn't have much else going on, she's officially fallen off. *Pours out a little liquor*
Teairra Mari – Have you heard a Teairra song lately? We haven't either, but we sure have kept up with her pics. We'll sing to that!
Teedra Moses – Teedra is doing music with Ricky Rozay and Maybach Music, but she hasn't dropped an album in six years. Until we get some new music consistently, we'll wait it out. Just make sure they all come with videos!
Reagan Gomez-Preston – Remember her from the Parent Hood TV show? She's done a few movies here and there but her King shoot is the most recent bit of greatness.
Continue Slideshow
Tamia – She stopped making music to handle family biz with hubby Grant Hill. We're not mad at that. But we still could use more public appearances!
Buffie The Body – We haven't seen much of Buff lately. But we do know those cakes are still there so she's still money.
Sarah Palin – Her political career is over, so why not just give her the business in her spare time? Sold!
Meagan Goode – Seen her in a great movie recently? No? But we bet you've paid attention to those sweater puppets? Thought so.
Keshia Knight Pulliam – Rudyyyyyy! She isn't doing much but getting her school on these days. But we'd still holla at her on the streets.

Template:I18n links start Template:I18n entry Template:I18n entry Template:I18n links end
There's an easy way to get Thunderbird sort of working with Firefox right out of the box with Arch. Go to your hidden thunderbird directory in your home directory.
cd /home/YOURUSERNAME/.thunderbird
Or use a graphical filebrowser like Konqueror or Nautilus. Make sure to enable 'view hidden files and folders.'
You'll see a folder that looks something like this
Go into that folder and find the file named prefs.js and open it with your text editor of choice.
IMPORTANT - Make absolute sure that Thunderbird is CLOSED. Otherwise this change to the text file will have no effect.
Add to the bottom of the prefs.js file the following lines and save the file (alternatively, you can add the lines to a new file called user.js).
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/opt/mozilla/bin/firefox"); user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/opt/mozilla/bin/firefox");
Then restart thunderbird. URL's clicked in Thunderbird should now open in Firefox. Unfortunately they do not receive focus. You still have to click on Firefox after clicking the URL. If anyone knows a fix to this PLEASE edit this.
You can change whether links are opened in new tabs or in new windows by opening up /usr/bin/mozilla-firefox in a text editor.
There are two lines near the top that say:
OPEN_IN=new-window #OPEN_IN=new-tab
This setup will open URL's in a new window. Simply comment the first line and uncomment the second line to open URL's in a new tab!
Another way to do that is to select the right radiobutton in Edit/Preferences/Advanced/Tabbed Browsing in your Firefox browser menu.

Top Choice Handyman
I am a young, male sole proprietor starting a new company offering high quality, professional handyman services. I am located in Canada, will specialize in interiors, offering all types of repair services.
My client base will be largely homeowners referred by real estate agents who are preparing their properties (homes, condos, townhouses) for sale. However, I would like to appeal to anyone requiring handyman services, including business owners.
I prefer a modern, clean, simple logo to be used on business cards, company van (which is white), letterhead, website, employee t-shirts, etc.
I would like the logo to be easily understood as representing a handyman company - ie not too abstract - and do not want anything cartoon'y. Image must be professional.
Please include full name as part of logo - Top Choice Handyman.
I am open to your creative input and hope to work on future projects together.
