It's worked out well for many of us in the past.

I have a X1 Carbon 5th Gen with built-in AC 8265. It can not connect to the 5G band. My other devices, like iPhone and Chromecast work just fine in 5G band. X1 can find the SSID for 5G, but can not link to it.I updated the driver to 18.104.22.168, also confirmed the setting for properties. Still it does not work. Is there any setting I missed?

When my Carbon 5th is connected to 5 GHz Wifi it randomly resets (drops) after several hours (connection is being lost, Windows reports "Cannot connect to the network"). Sometimes it is possible to connect again manually, sometimes only reboot makes it work again. Connection to 2.4 GHz Wifi always works totally fine. I've seen several similar topics on Intel forums with the same issue, looks like it touches several Intel WiFi adapters. No solution have been found except using only old 2.4 GHz protocols or external WiFi adaptors. I tried different drivers and many parameter sets on my router - nothing solves this issue. It is very sad to have only 20mbps with 2.4 GHz while new standards offer more than 100mbps. Did you face this issue? Any ideas to solve it out?Read other answers

Hello, In our organization we have a VPN client that is sensative to driver versions. We have noticed Lenovo System Update is only updating the Lenovo T470 Wireless-AC 8265 drivers to a certain point and has stopped. That we could tell there did seem to be a problem as previously there was a rapid succession of updates for our T470's and the wireless NICs to a certain point.T470 - 20HES09L00 Would it be possible to have this driver updated? 2018/09/03 - v220.127.116.11 - Lenovo2019/03/06 - v184.108.40.206 - Intel Thank you,Tony H.
I noticed this apparent divergence on my T480, so I manually installed thev18.104.22.168 driver direct from the Intel site. When it got done installing, Device manager (Windows 10 Pro 64-bit) reported that I STILL was using the same version as offered by Lenovo: v18.104.22.168 - Lenovo

Hello everyone! I recently got myself my first thinkpad, a t480! I love the machine so far and i didnt not have any issues until the last few days!All out of a sudden my wifi is completely unusable and im becoming desperate since i have tried out various attempts to fix it, but none worked!What happens, is that the wifi just keeps disconnecting permanently. It keeps the connection for maybe 1 or 2 minutes, then disconnects and after a few seconds, reconnects to the wifi again! It is literally unusable like that and i cant return the laptop to the manufacturer since im using it for my university and have a lot of important programms and data on it, i need it daily. Here is a small list of what i have tried so far:-reinstalled the drivers for the device-optimize the power settings-forbid windows to turn off the device to safe power-tried various drivers I could not come up with more solution attempts to that issue. Right now i am even thinking about just buying a new WiFi card for the Laptop (is it swapable in a t480? or is it integrated?)If you need further information to help investigate the issue please let me know!!! I hope there is another way to resolve that issue!Looking forwards to your help PhilRead other answers
I have quite a few Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon laptops connected to Thunderbolt 3 Docking Stations running Windows 10 Pro Version 1803 (OS Build 17134.285). When powered on with no Ethernet cable attached to the docking station the WiFi starts perfectly. When connected to the Lan at startup no WiFi is connected as desired. Disconnecting and reconnecting the Lan cable causes the WiFi connection to behave properly ? on or off as it should be. However, after a period of time while connected to the Lan, the WiFi connects again so that both Lan and Wan are connected simultaneously.

Dear Support-Team:
Could you please tell me,
a) Which Toshiba-Driver Version for Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 should be the current or newest Version?
b) Has Toshiba the Intel-Driver Version modified or adapted or updated to Toshiba Hardware?
c) From where can I get the new Driver? I couldn't find it for Windows 10 upgrade by the Toshiba Support Driver-Download web page.
Thank you in advance.
After Windows update my WiFi adapter (Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165) just stopped working.I tried many drivers, but the official driver did not work, the latest (2017-10) driver from intel's websites is not working either. Rolling back the driver is not working anymore after windows update.I tried static IP, did not help. This is not an adapter issue, because on Ubuntu it's working very well. After connecting to a network, the connection stays alive for 2-5 secs, then the adapter restarts automatically. In event viewer I can see some warnings.WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped.Module Path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\IWMSSvc.dll It's extremely annoying because it's a "bussiness" category laptop without wireless connection. Any ideas ? Can I download from somewhere some older drivers for this adapter ? Third party sites are not an option. : )Read other answers

Hello, I just got my E560 on 9/27/16. It has windows 7, 64 pro installed. I plugged in the battery and waited an hour or so before turning the system on. Everything booted ok and I entered my hidden router for my wifi. Unfortuanly, it would not connect. I finally dug out an old ethernet cable to hook up and test the system and download some software. I then unhid my router and still was not able to find it. Everyones router in the neigborhood showed up but mine. I call tech support but they claimed that it was my routers software. I have 4 other devices working just fine on the wifi and I even set my printer up for wifi while the router was hidden with no problem. I checked the Lenovo site for updates but the system said everything was up to date. I went to the Intel site and downloaded their current driver for this card. The laptop finally noticed the router while it was unhidden and I again hid the router and rebooted my Laptop. This cured the problem. However, I was displeased with Customer service they tried to tell me it was a problem with my router and not the system and all my drivers shipped from the factory were up to date. I hope this will help anyone who has a similar problem.Read other answers

Hi jdvoigt,
Yes you can upgrade from single band wireless card to dual band. Once installed on the system you may consider reinstalling the drivers for it.
I purchased this laptop two months ago (I wasn't using it for the two months) and just recently it restarted on its own twice while I was using it when it turned back on it was not connecting to the internet I know it's not my internet because it is working on my phone perfectly.. When I troubleshooted the problem it said the Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265 adapter is experiencing driver- or hardware- related problems, please tell me how to resolve this issueThank you!

Hello,I have been having serious problems with my HP Pavilion 17 Notebook's WiFi driver. It first began with periodic disconnects when I was using Windows 8.1. When I would close the notebook it would disconnect from WiFi, and every few hours it would disconnect as well. (Connection to my router would display a yellow exclamation point, say limited, and all other networks would disappear from view).More recently, within the past week, the disconnects have become far more frequent. I'm talking every 10 minutes or so. Now it's at the point where the lap top is simply unusable.In the past I would just go into devices through the control panel, and disable then enable the Ac3160 driver and that would seem to do the trick to get me through the day. However, now that simply does not work. I am at my wit's end.Yesterday I updated to Windows 10 to see if that would alter the way the driver is behaving - nope.I have unchecked any boxes in power management settings that would disable network connection to save power.I have updated the driver.I could definitely use some help! Thank you.Read other answers

I am having issues pulling large CAD files and in looking over the service manual the only option listed for a duel band card is a old N Intel 3160 (1X1) from 2013. I Contacted Intel and was informed that the card should work but that HP tends to Whitelist there BIOS in order to keep customers from upgraded there workstations. The issue I am having is the the Intel 7260 is not listed in my service manual BUT is currently available as a driver download on the support site listed as a Intel 7260/3160 driver.

Hi: From the several posts I have read on the forum you should have no problem installing any wireless card you want in your notebook, as it appears that HP has done away with the BIOS whitelisting of wireless cards. Below is the link to the service manual for your notebook. Memory upgrade info can be found in chapter 1. http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/manualCategory?cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&product=7582630& Now, I have some bad news for you... You will void the warranty if you install a wireless card or memory yourself. Unfortunately, you have to pretty much take the whole notebook apart to get to the hard drive, memory and wireless card. You can refer to chapters 5 and 6 of the service manual for the removal and replacement procedures.Read other 9 answers

I have the same problem. I have an HP Pavilion 17Z-g000 CTO Touch running Windows 10 Pro with Intel dual-band wireless AC 3165. The wireless connection continues to randomly drop internet connection.
When I first bought the computer it would crash Win 10 with a blue screen. After several driver updates, it now just loses connection to the internet. Clicking on the wireless icon, the network shows it as connected to my wireless router, but with no internet access. After a while, wi-fi shows as being off, and can't be turned back on, and finally, wi-fi shows as disconnected with no available connections. If I try to reboot, or shut down, the computer will hang indefinitely until I manually shut down by holding in the power key.
When I turn the computer back on, the wi-fi will show as not connected and will not show any available networks. To restore the network connection, I have to diable the network controller in device manager, restart the computer, and re-enable the network controller. This problem occurs both after waking from sleep and after a powerup. The time it takes for the problem to arise can vary from a few minutes, to a few hours after logging in.

Driver Version 188.8.131.52
I just upgraded my laptop wireless adapter from "Broadcom BCM43142" to "Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3160 802.11 ac" upon confirmed that the new card is supported from service manual. Both latest Intel wireless and bluetooth drivers are installed (188.8.131.52 and 18.1.1611.3223 respectively). AC connection works perfectly fine; however, the bluetooth seems to be having issue here. For pairing and maintain active connection between bluetooth device and laptop, I have to put them right next to each other literally. Any distance more than 10cm apart, the bluetooth device will be inactive and unusable. I don't have such problem with Broadcom which I can perform pairing and maintain active connection even a meter apart. Does anybody face the same issue before with Intel AC 3160 bluetooth? Or is this a hardware issue with the card itself?

2.) Not allowing the computer to turn off the network adapter
3.) Uninstall and reinstall network adapter
4.) Release and renew IPv4 address
5.) Disable Proset services
6.) Disable Bluetooth driver and services
7.) Set WLAN AutoConfig to automatically start

Then i check the wifi card on another Asus laptop (approximately the same age model) and it worked, so the wifi card is working normally.
All the time the card is visible in the device manager and the icon is there to. The icon has the symbol for turned off wifi.
What could be the problem, what can i do?

I was wondering if anyone is having the same issue I am having. I have a HP Envy m7-n101dx notebook with an Intel ac 7265 dual band wireless adapter running 64bit Windows 10. The wifi speed is very poor. I have an arris surfboard 6900ac modem/router. I have 300 mb/s internet service. Wired the modem gets about 350 mb/s. On wifi on the 5gz band I have a macbook that regulary gets 180-240 mb/s speeds. I also have a 5 plus year old macbook that gets 150-180 mb/s speeds. Our phones get 100-150 mb/s speeds. But this computer usually only gets about 50-80 mb/s speeds. Often it can dip below those speeds. If I open my router to 8 channels, the speeds will drop to about 8 mb/s. Very rarely will it get upto 100 mb/s speeds. But it never gets close to the speeds it is rated to get. I was wondering if anyone was having the same problem and if they have a solution? I have updated drivers, rolled drivers back, dowloaded directly from the intel site, and deleted and reinstalled the network adapter. Nothing has worked.Read other answers
I need to know if the Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260 device is compatible with (supported by) DELL Latitude E6540.

Anybody know? It is compatible?

Sort ArrayList in Ascending and Descending orderSorting an ArrayList has become even easier with a lambda expression, method reference, and various utility methods added on Comparable and Comparator class. See this tutorial gets a feel of sorting ArrayList in Java 8.
Sorting ArrayList in Java with natural Order
In our example of natural order sorting in ArrayList, we have implemented compareTo of smartphone and sorted them based on brands. So an Apple smartphone comes before Nokia smartphone.
Once your object is OK just store them in Java ArrayList and pass that list to Collections.sort() method, this will sort the list in natural order of objects.
See the bottom of this Java tutorial for a complete code example of Sorting Java ArrayList in Natural Order. If you love books, you can also check out the Core Java Volume 1 - Fundamentals by Cay S. Horstmann to learn more about sorting ArrayList. One of the best book to learn core Java.
Sorting Java ArrayList with custom Order
Java Program to sort an ArrayList
How to sort ArrayList in Descending Order in Java
//sorting ArrayList in descending or reverse order in Java
How to sort ArrayList of String in Case insensitive OrderArrayList of String can also be sorted with case insensitive comparison. String class defines a convenient case insensitive comparator which can be accessed directly like String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER . if you pass this comparator to ArrayList.sort() which contains String then those will be sorted accordingly. Here is an example of sorting arraylist in case insensitive order:

Hi All,
I just wanted to know the different ways to land your first Cognos developer job. I have been working in the Chemical Engineering industry for the last year 3 years as a chemical Engineer but recently some freinds told me about this Bussiness Intelligence field and it really interst me, so I ended up doing the cognos course and certification. But I think, the job market is such the companies arent ready to invest in freshers.
Does anyone know any companies in Australia who might be looking for freshers or junior roles. Any suggestions will be appreciated!

Re: How to land the first Cognos developer Job Perth
This is an interesting one. Normally the best way to start down this career path is to be a user first. Most of the people that I know that migrate in to this field do it over a time that fits them as they learn to develop more and gain valuable experience. What you might want to do is find a chemical engineering company that is using BI. That way the expereince you have and the new skills you've developed match. I would especially look an analyst type role where you'll be developing reports. This way you'll be gaining that all important experience but also it looks like a great transition on your CV,

At this point, there should be no doubt in the mind of any intelligent person that George W. Bush has repeatedly lied and altered the truth to fit his own agenda. His "war on terror", based on lies and prevarications, has resulted in the deaths of untold numbers of people – both Americans and Iraqis – and the deaths are unlikely to end in the foreseeable future as he continues and expands his warmongering.
However, just exactly how dishonest is this guy? Are his lies restricted to his "war on terror", or do his lies go much, much further?
Finally, we have the answer. It appears that he regularly lies and twists the truth with the specific intent of misleading Congress and the American public on other important issues as well. As if that's not bad enough, he also edits official reports to leave out information he doesn't want us to know. Worst of all, he seems to be doing this in order to further his own financial interests, and that of his friends in the oil industry.
Here is the House Oversight Committee's Executive Summary of their investigation into allegations that the Bush administration has improperly manipulated the findings of scientists with regard to global warming.
For the past 16 months, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee has been investigating allegations of political interference with government climate change science under the Bush Administration. During the course of this investigation, the Committee obtained over 27,000 pages of documents from the White House Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) and the Commerce Department, held two investigative hearings, and deposed or interviewed key officials. Much of the information made available to the Committee has never been publicly disclosed.
This report presents the findings of the Committee's investigation. The evidence before the Committee leads to one inescapable conclusion: the Bush Administration has engaged in a systematic effort to manipulate climate change science and mislead policymakers and the public about the dangers of global warming.
In 1998, the American Petroleum Institute developed an internal "Communications Action Plan" that stated: "Victory will be achieved when … average citizens understand' uncertainties in climate science … [and] recognition of uncertainties becomes part of the 'conventional wisdom.'" The Bush Administration has acted as if the oil industry's communications plan were its mission statement. White House officials and political appointees in the agencies censored congressional testimony on the causes and impacts of global warming, controlled media access to government climate scientists, and edited federal scientific reports to inject unwarranted uncertainty into discussions of climate change and to minimize the threat to the environment and the economy.
Here is a listing of their findings:
The White House Censored Climate Scientists
The White House Controlled which Climate Scientists Could Speak with the Media
The White House Extensively Edited Congressional Testimony Regarding Climate Science
The Administration's Censorship of Climate Scientists was Widespread
The White House Extensively Edited Climate Change Reports
The White House Edited the Strategic Plan of the Climate Change Science Program
The White House Edited EPA's Report on the Environment
The White House Edited Our Changing Planet
The White House Eliminated the Climate Change Section of EPA's Air Trends Report
The White House was Involved in Editing EPA's Legal Opinions
The White House Edited the EPA Administrator's Op-ed n Climate Change
And here is their conclusion:
The Committee's 16-month investigation reveals a systematic White House effort to censor climate scientists by controlling their access to the press and editing testimony to Congress. The White House was particularly active in stifling discussions of the link between increased hurricane intensity and global warming. The White House also sought to minimize the significance and certainty of climate change by extensively editing government climate change reports. Other actions taken by the White House involved editing EPA legal opinions and op-eds on climate change.
I very strongly suggest you read the actual documents, linked under sources below, because it gives an interesting insight into just how dishonest George W. Bush really is, and how far he will go to hide the truth from Congress and the American people when it fits his various agendas to do so.
What I don't understand, and will never understand, is why Congress hasn't impeached this pathological liar.

text: Well, that does sound lovely. Possibly a tall order, especially because, while there are many cute places to get a small meal or appetizers and drinks on Polk Street, most of them are not cheap. We had selected a possible cheap dinner place, but Cal and I raised the objection that it doesn't serve drinks. Mumble. Maybe I should scout out Hyde street for a place like that. Actually, a cozy restaurant with appetizers and good drinks would be The Bell Tower. I may start agitating for that to be the starting place (although I worry about the space, depending on how many people are going to show). And Mu, I thought you'd like the idea of starting at Tonic, since it's by you. You're probably right about the hill, although it's not steep. Maybe we start at the Bell Tower and then move to Tonic?

Update: Google Chrome browser fonts problem on Mac OS X
You may have seen my earlier post on this topic here and thought "Yippeee" problem solved!
Well that's true, if you're on Mac and your font manager serves one of the standard Web fonts like Arial, then by removing the font from the manager and allowing Chrome to fall through to the version in the system font library you fix the problem (remember that the Chrome security model currently only allows it to read fonts from the standard systems fonts folder).
Unfortunately this does not work for all cases!! For example, if a Web page uses a font like Calibri, such as http://perspectives.mvdirona.com/2009/02/07/FacebookCassandraArchitectureAndDesign.aspx then this font won't be in your system fonts folder. On the other hand, as in my case, it may be in your font manager.
You can't delete it from your font manager, because there is no system equivalent
Currently, no obvious fix! // except… I decided Calibri wasn't that important and disabled it 🙂 anyway
Come on Google sort out the Mac!
Google Chrome browser fonts problem on Mac OS X
Just about everyone in the Web/tech industry now has worked out that Chrome rocks. It rocks so much, that once you use it for a while, any other browser becomes unbearable (I won't go into the design decisions that make it so much better, but please take it on trust and try using this browser for a while, searching via the address bar, adding extensions etc, if you are not already).
That is, except for some people on Mac OS X, because in some configurations Chrome screws up the display of certain fonts. When this happens, text in the fonts in question are represented by a series of A's.
Cause: You have a font manager installed, such as Suitcase Fusion, which maintains fonts outside of the Mac OS X fonts folder. If the manager activates a Web font that is also a "system" font, such as Arial or Tahoma, when Chrome Beta requests the font from the system it will be directed to the managed copy. Unfortunately however, Chrome's security model does not allow it to access and load font files outside of the system fonts folder.
Fix: Carefully go through the fonts in your font manager. Deactivate any copies of Web fonts such as Arial, Tahoma and Georgia (these fonts should already exist in your system fonts anyway). Restart Chrome.

Since I was a child I have wanted a weeping willow tree. A few years back, I gave in to my desires and purchased one and planted it in the front yard. I have enjoyed watching it grow and have taken joy from its appearance.
This week, workers from the county road commission cut two large branches from my tree. They also cut a large branch from the tree next to it. It ruined my weeping willow. It would take a miracle for it to weep again.
Now I have two choices: cut down the remainder of the tree or look at its ruin each time I leave my drive. I am hurt, dismayed and angry at this.
By what right does the road commission come to my home and deface my tree? May I sue them for this misuse of their power? Do I have any recourse?

He kept the movie "Moneyball" in his office, an orderly space with framed military recognitions on the wall, to give to those who wanted an understanding of his philosophy on running school districts.
The film, based on the book on his shelf by Michael Lewis, tells the story of Oakland Athletics manager Billy Beane (played by Brad Pitt), who turned a dysfunctional team around using performance metrics in his selection and positioning of baseball players.
He likes to point out that the old-school scouts -- the ones who pass on Beane's analytics for traditional and outdated measurement categories like "classic swing" or an "it-factor" -- those guys don't win.
Rick Mills, Manatee County's new superintendent, is a man who immediately provokes questions: about whether a process-oriented approach is the right way to improve a school district. About whether a superintendent can lead with a non-traditional background. About whether analysis and data should guide passion and practice.
"So I'm not a baseball player with a smooth swing, but I have a 98 percent batting average?" Mills says with a slight smile. "Look at the outcomes, isn't that more important?"
The retired lieutenant colonel is a self-described "data king," who entered the education world in 2001 after a 24-year Army career that inspired him to apply data and performance measurement to school management.
The former chief executive officer of Minneapolis schools will be paid $183,500 per year to right the Manatee district -- a financially troubled bureaucracy whose major players have botched the budget, cut pay for teachers and staff and lost community trust.
Some in Manatee argued that the process-oriented leader was the best chance for a district in need of a culture change. Others questioned choosing a white former soldier over minority and female candidates with decades of academic experience in Florida.
But almost everyone -- even those outside the local school system -- understands that the future of the Manatee district depends on new leadership.
"It's a needy district that really needs some leadership that can bring it back on the right track," said Mitch Trockman, a three-time interim superintendent for Minneapolis Public Schools who has watched Manatee's board meetings and followed the media coverage with fascination. "Ethnically, economically, there's a chance for growth."
Mills has a plan for that, one he used to improve student performance in schools he oversaw as a Chicago-area superintendent and later to enforce existing efforts to change Minneapolis school management.
Rid yourself of vague methodology. Align everything to one plan. Know the numbers and use them to your advantage. Collaborate.
Be like Beane. Get on base.
Systematic approach
Mills has a bachelor's degree in criminal justice and master's degrees in national security affairs and business. He's developed contingency and evacuation plans for the United Nations and taught at West Point.
He's had various roles in school administration for the past 12 years.
He is, he says, an educator.
"I feel like education needs to be more open to people coming in with blended experiences," Mills said. "It bothers me when traditional education points to my credentials as a weakness -- I've been doing this for almost 13 years now."
Bernadeia Johnson, the Minneapolis superintendent who hired Mills as the district's No. 2 in 2011 to ease her workload, might disagree with Mills' unwavering faith in systems. Minneapolis reforms, some of which Mills has helped enforce, are too new to tie directly to student performance. Johnson has seen some who have been frustrated by rapid systematic change in the name of accountability.
"I am a believer that change takes place in the classroom level and the school level ... changing practice makes a difference," says Johnson, who has championed focused instruction and a new teacher evaluation system in her district. "And I believe he thinks changing systems makes a difference. And that it's all planning."
Despite their differences, both leaders say that a systematic approach to changing practice can work.
Mills remembers a time in Chicago when principals wanted to spark better ACT scores. He asked them a simple question about the college-ready exam.
"How many more questions does a student need to answer correctly to move from a 20 to a 22?"
Few knew.
So, Mills figured out the answer. Then, he said, schools administered expired state tests, and a company analyzed the results. By repeating the process three times each year, teachers could pinpoint specific questions that students were missing. Administrators could look at what teachers' methods were effective.
Scores rose.
Trust and teamwork
A high school senior at Richland High School in Johnstown, Pa., Mills realized he would be unable to afford college.
A brief stint as a vacuum salesman ended when he accidentally sucked up a woman's drapes, an incident that still makes him laugh.
Mills met with a local military recruiter and enlisted, serving three years as a soldier before enrolling in the West Point Prep School, and then Indiana University of Pennsylvania on the G.I. Bill and an ROTC scholarship.
He moved frequently during his nearly quarter century in the military, spending three years as an adviser at MacDill Air Force Base in Tampa.
Mills was recruited in 2001 to run various military academies for Chicago Public Schools, and promoted to an area superintendent in 2009 because his military academies had outpaced traditional schools, former CEO Ron Huberman said.
Area "26" quickly became one of the highest-performing sectors in Chicago, Huberman said. Mills' team was holding school-wide retreats to map curriculum and requiring area departments and schools to sync their strategic plans.
Groups that regularly used data to analyze the success and failures of all aspects of schools -- from school policy to student achievement -- were created. But it was key that they were implemented within schools and tied to district goals, Mills said, rather than managed by outside administrators.
"If you want to build trust and collaboration, you need to have teachers in the process, being valued and involved," Mills said.
This is why Huberman challenges the notion that Mills' philosophy on management is just about numbers.
"It's deeper than that," Huberman said. "It wasn't just change and improvement, it was getting everyone on board."
Mills said he was shocked by how many teachers and principals didn't understand the scorecards they were assessed with when he began quarterly reviews of staff.
"If you don't understand how you are being evaluated, how are you going to move outcomes?" Mills said. "It was like we were operating in the dark."
Stephen Ngo was a new principal when his poorly performing high school transitioned into Mills' area through a 2010 restructuring. Many of Mills' processes were new to Ngo. But the principal said the experience was enlightening, as school leaders came together to understand where they needed to improve, partly by crunching data on a weekly basis to guide student-specific interventions.
"The big thing was making people understand the data," Ngo said. "Do you really know that only 40 percent of your students are passing? Or that a student is only in your class 60 percent of the time?"
His school moved up a level that first year, with particular improvements in the freshmen on track to graduate.
Not the perfect fit?
Johnson, the Minneapolis superintendent, already was guiding her district out of a fragile state somewhat mirroring Manatee when she hired Mills as her deputy in July 2011.
Their partnership work- ed, some observers say.
Mills allowed Johnson to focus on academics and successfully build back trust with the community. He also was able to oversee existing efforts to add a layer of accountability to rebuilding departments, said Board of Education director Richard Mammen.
Other evidence suggests that Minneapolis and Mills were not the perfect fit. A change agent with complete autonomy in Chicago, Mills was now helping to oversee a district in the midst of various reforms, but he was no longer in charge.
Some principals in Minneapolis contend that change happened too fast as the district worked to improve strategic plans and to implement other initiatives. They lamented the time spent away from schools in performance meetings enforced by Mills.
But others found a clarity they had never known.
Meredith Fox, who oversees planning and performance improvement in Minneapolis, sees a slow change occurring in the district's culture.
"We're putting in place management systems that aren't about hallways conversations," Fox said. "It's not about a particular leader and a particular personality. It's setting us up to deliver results."
Lynn Nordgren, president of the Minneapolis Federation of Teachers, said Mills saw her regularly, was crucial to mediating negotiations for a delayed contract, and set up meetings to directly address issues holding the district back.
"He's known as a common sense kind-of-guy," Norgren said. "He doesn't admire the problem."
'Soup with the Supe'
Mills parked his Mercedes Benz against a snow pie and headed toward a local arts center during one recent evening in Minneapolis. A student string ensemble played in the corner as people milled around folding tables under twinkling lights.
Several times a year, Johnson serves the community dinner at "Soup with the Supe," where the administrator fields a barrage of questions from parents and the community.
This is Johnson's forte -- a warm personality exudes freely as she serves chicken rice soup side-by-side with other administrators. Mills serves bread, something of an uncomfortable shadow.
"I don't see that as his strength, but I think he recognizes that," said board member Rebecca Gagnon.
Even if Mills hasn't been on the front line with the public, he has had the challenge of learning how best to engage and create buy-in from district staff, Gagnon said. To engender trust in Manatee, he will likely have to continue to perfect how he builds relationships.
Rick Kreyer, the chief human resource officer in Minneapolis, remembers being brand new to the job and having Mills come to his office and curtly inform him that his department plan was late.
"I'm like, 'I just started the job,'" Kreyer said, shaking his head. "But I've seldom had a CEO who's pushed back and pushed my thinking even further -- he has a scary depth to all the district's functions."
Some suggest that at times Mills' communication style overstepped the line between direct and disrespectful.
Perhaps no one understands this better than his former boss, Johnson, who said that Mills -- especially at the beginning of his tenure -- did not always have the tact to cater to the "warm and fuzzy" educators and what is known as "Minnesota niceness."
"I don't direct people -- I don't use that kind of language," Johnson said. "You can do that without putting people's hackles up."
Analytic response
A plane was about to crash high above a white tablecloth in a back booth of Manny's, a popular steakhouse in the heart of downtown Minneapolis.
Mills guided a notepad through the air, simulating the sequence of the disaster in the movie "Flight." Actor Denzel Washington plays an alcoholic pilot who saves lives by -- spoiler alert -- pulling a commercial airliner out of an uncontrolled dive and turning the plane upside down to soften the impact of the unplanned landing.
It was a celebration dinner in early March, a proper acknowledgment of Mills' move to Manatee County, attended by his wife and best friend. But Mills came alive from polite table conversation when the film was brought up, fingers twirling around the makeshift plane as he broke the flight down with talk of aircraft parts and physics.
He needed to explain why Washington had to flip that plane, why there was logically and logistically no other way in a movie that asks viewers: hero or not?
His wife, Jessica, and colleague Steve Flisk, a buddy from his Chicago Public School days, smiled with patient amusement at his analytic response to a film.
"He was a hero," Mills said to the table.
He said it once more before the conversation was through.
It was as simple as that.
The analyst's challenge in Manatee RICK MILLS: How will past schools jobs inform the 'data king' here?
He kept the movie "Moneyball" in his office, an orderly space with framed military recognitions on the wall, to give to those who wanted an understanding of his philosophy on running school districts.

Tasting Group Follow Up
Hello everyone! We hope you had a great weekend. As you know, we had the first meeting for our new tasting group yesterday evening. Our topic: Chardonnay's. We tasted everything blind (from right to left), and were especially intrigued when the wine in glass #2 was a red wine. As we said, this was the first meeting…we still need to work out the kinks. That being said, it was an interesting addition to our line up.
We tasted in random order, and had no idea which bottle was our own (save wine #2) which added to the excitement. We had guesses on which wine belonged to whom (especially wine #2), but in the end upon revealing the bottles, we were mostly just pleased that none of us brought a terrible wine.
Without further adieu, the write-up:
Wine #1 was the 2007 Shannon Ridge Chardonnay from Lake County, California. This wine had a toasty, vanilla, green apple, peachy, melon (cantaloupe), slightly mineral nose that oozed out of the glass effortlessly. It drank velvety smooth, and had a very nice creamy, cedary green apple, and buttery mouthfeel. This was definitely a well made wine, and would pair very well with shrimp, or oysters, or even a stick of butter. (If you like that kind of thing.)
This bottle weighed in 14.2% ABV, and was a great way to start the evening. Shannon Ridge carries a $15 price tag, and represents that price point very well. This is a worth-while bottle to pick up if you're in the market for an oaked, but not over-oaked Chardonnay from Cali that won't break the piggy bank.
Wine # 2 was the infamous 'red wine' that we spoke of earlier. In all fairness, the group member that brought this wine received an invitation to the group less than 24 hours prior during our Bubbly Event at Rulis' International Kitchen. Furthermore, there is a good chance we didn't mention what the topic was.
Now that the disclaimer is up, we will talk about the wine. Bottle #2 was the Chapillon Cuveé Harmonie 2006, which ended up being a Petit Verdot/Tannat blend from the Aragon region in Northern Spain. At first the nose was a little tight, but then it opened up some black cherry, leather, cherry cola, slate, flint, wet leaf aromas that really made us want to dive in and take that first sip. Once we did, there was more cherry, pine needles, some wet soil flavors, and a little bit of green apple, and grape candies (think Jolly Rancher's). This was a cool wine, and we're glad it squeaked its way into the Chardonnay tasting. Advocate gave it 90 points, and it scored well amongst the group as well. You can pick it up for $12 all around Texas, and probably 'in your nape of the woods, neck of the wape; How come you're here?' Sorry, there will probably be more Caddyshack quotes before this post is over.
Wine numero tres was the Felino Viña Cobos 2008 Chardonnay from Mendoza, Argentina. This is another Paul Hobbs creation, and you can see his fingerprints all over this wine. Advocate went 90 points on this wine, and may have sold it short. This monster weighed in at 14.8% ABV, and rocked our faces off. This is a thick, creamy Chard, that despite sitting on oak for 8 months, wasn't offensively oaky. Mr. Hobbs knows what he is doing, and you need to just trust him. The Felino was fully of Vanilla, and citrus flavors, with a bit of spice, and even a sugar cookie aspect to it, which is just awesome! On the palate, it coats every bit of the mouth with a thick, buttery, whipping cream feel that tastes of baked bread, and vanilla, with more of that sugar cookie from before. For all of you vegans out there searching for a wine that works with your lifestyle, this is one to add to your list. This is an unfined, and unfiltered Vegan friendly Chardonnay. At $22, it comes with a perfectly respectable price tag, and drinks at a much higher level of quality. The Felino is just well made. What more can we say. Go out and find this wine. Seriously…the post will still be here when you get back…Go!
Wine #4 was the Acre Chardonnay from the Central Coast in California. This bottle retails for about $20, and has a light alcohol percentage of 13.5%. Acre has great straw-green color, and has a very fresh, clean nose. Kind of like a fruit salad. This was the one wine that we (Zak & Olena) scored the same, so we'll include that we gave it 85 points. Realistically, it's probably a few points higher, but either way, it's a pretty good wine. No disrespect to this wine, but it did have a very tough act to follow in the Felino. That being said, it's a well made wine that for $20 isn't asking for too much, and delivers delicious fruit aromas and flavors. Despite being oaked, we could barely detect it on the first go around. Once we revisited this wine, it was slightly more prevalent, but well placed.
Our final Vino came from William Fevre. You can't have a Chardonnay tasting without a white Burg. You just can't. This wine was the William Fevre Champs Royaux Chablis 2005. From what we read about the bottle, it can lay down or be drunk from now until 2017. Based on its performance during our tasting, we think it could use a little more time. One interesting note that came out of this wine was a crisp lettuce flavor on the palate. Other than that, it was pretty straightforward, and needed to be accompanied by food, which after the tasting we ended up doing with the final 3 wines. The Chablis pulled it's big-boy/girl pants up and did what it was meant to do. The Acre showed what a $20 Chard from Cali can do, and the Felino (as if it wasn't already the star of the show) picked up even more steam. It dominated with Chef Rulis' seafood concoction that had great heat to it, and was full of flavor.
So that's it kids. 5 wines. The New World showed well, granted we only had one Old World white representing in the tasting. The Red Blend was a bonus wine. If you have tasted any of these wines, or just feel like commenting, we would love to hear from you. Thanks for reading. Cheers!!!
Zak & Olena

[Our Beauty Of The Day]
Where She's From: Latasha Johnson was born and raised in the City of Angels, Los Angeles, California. She has an elder brother and one younger sister.
She lost an elder brother before she was born and another one when she was 11. "His best friend was showing off his father's gun and accidentally shot my brother. His death was extremely tough on me because he and I were really close," she recalls, adding that shut down emotionally until many years later, then realized "not everyone you are close to will leave you."
She adds, "One thing I learned from my mom is that tough times do not last; tough people do. She came a long way from being the little country girl from Pineapple, Alabama, to a respected elementary school teacher."
"She also taught me that you don't need a man in your life to get what you want. You get out there and work hard on your own and everything else with fall into place," Latasha says.
Latasha attended George Washington Preparatory High School in Los Angeles and Cal State University Dominguez Hills (CSUDH) for two and a half years before financial burden became too much. "After a extensive break from college I decided to return and moved to Atlanta where I now attend Clark Atlanta University majoring in Business Administration with a concentration in Finance, where my pending graduation date is May 2009," she notes.
Where She's At: "I was in high school when the seed on modeling was planted," Latasha says.
"Ever since my first photo shoot at the age of sixteen, you couldn't keep me away from posing. I'd practice hours in the mirror to see what angles and expressions worked best for me. A visit to Los Angeles' annual Black College Expo is where my dream would potentially become a reality when I was approached about a modeling career," she adds.
Latasha says she then ate, slept, dreamt, breathed, and danced modeling. "I've been known to rip the runway down to its seams," she adds, with a laugh. "My aspirations are to become a world known supermodel with beauty and brains. I want to grace the cover of fashion magazines all over the world."
She's also entrepreneurial and is now developing her own sultry yet sexy calendar entitled "Beautiful" that will be out in 2009.
"Since moving to Atlanta one of the major challenges in modeling is receiving compensation for your work," Latasha says. "I have been to numerous castings or auditions that love to 'expose' you but not compensate you. Another challenge is finding real work that doesn't include being a video vixen or some rappers eye candy."
Latasha has worked in shows for Young Jeezy and worked for Jermaine Dupri's club opening, but she's got her eyes on New York's Fashion Week.
"In this industry it is typical to be acknowledge only for your looks, but when you have more to bring to the table you are a step ahead of the rest that only rely on their looks to get the job," she says, referring to the importance of brains. "Having beauty is nice, but having the brains to know what that beauty is worth when discussing compensation is priceless." Moreover, she's a readaholic, with 120 books that she's read at least twice, in her collection.
So how does this lovely model and entrepreneur prepare to step out?
"I love jeans and the best pair that I found that makes my tail look right and tight are Rock n' Republic," she says. "They are the perfect fit for a 5' 9 long-legged beauty like myself. As for shoes, my favorites are Steve by Steve Madden. They have a 3 3/4 inch heel to die for and also boots from Aldo. I am a boot fanatic. I am embarrassed to say I actually have two closets in my room, one for clothes and the other for shoes. Oddly enough I am not a big fragrance type of gal, but I have found myself using 'Desire" by Victoria's Secret. My favorite makeup is by MAC."
Latasha's Words Of Wisdom: "Comes from Horace Odes 'Carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero,' meaning 'seize the day, trust no tomorrows.' Don't be afraid to step outside your box because opportunity is waiting."
Latasha's Secret To Success: "Patience. Knowing that my hard work will not be in vain and knowing that having a positive attitude will turn positive results."
Latasha's Favorite Movies: "The Last Dragon, by Berry Gordy; The Wiz, and The Best Man."
Latasha's Favorite Books: "The Coldest Winter Ever, by Sista' Soulja; Addicted, by Zane; and All That and A Bag of Chips, by Darrien Lee."
Three Leaders That Most Inspire Latasha: "Oprah, supermodel Liya Kebede, and Nelson Mandela."
The First Three Things Latasha's Would Do As President: "Return our troops home from a war that is destined for disaster. Secondly I would be sure Social Security and Health Care issues would be resolved. Finally I would raise the minimum wage. After moving to Atlanta my eyes have open to how I had it made living in California. In Atlanta I have come to understand the meaning of the working poor and that needs to change"
Latasha's Favorite Cars: "Range Rover for when I'm feeling tough yet cute and a Maserati GranTurismo for when I'm feeling low key sexy and smooth."
Latasha's Favorite Entertainers: "R. Kelly, Anthony Hamilton, Joss Stone or John Legend."
Latasha's Favorite Websites: "Style.com, ModelMayhem, Concreteloop, Myspace, Facebook and SchoolSlam.com."

And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples
and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus,
sat by the highway side begging.
Let me share with you an Oriental custom in regard to healing. This is concerning the many beggars which you see in certain places when you go to Palestine, Egypt or India. Americans think that all these beggars are poor people and that is the reason they are begging. But this is not so. In the Eastern philosophy, either Hindu, Mohammedan or Jewish, if a man is incurable and the doctors have given up on him, then he becomes a beggar, seeking not money, but healing.
When you act as a beggar, then you have no more self respect. You lose all your social standing; you become very humble, when you act as a beggar. Then God, through His mercy, may give you healing someway, sometime, through some holy man. That is the teaching we have in the East.
The three places where the beggars go are the highway side, the temple gate, or the banks of holy rivers. Thousands of people go past these three places daily, and they pray that in one of these places there might be a holy man passing whose shadow might fall on them, or that he might say a word or touch them and heal them of their incurable disease.
An example of a beggar by the highway side is the story of blind Bartimaeus, found in Mark 10:46-52.
Mark 10:46
And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging . . . .
The fact that blind Bertimaeus was sitting on the highway side begging, shows me that he was not begging for money. The real beggars of the East that beg for food, come to the door. They tap on the floor by the door, and the woman of the house comes out and gives them something to eat. But the beggars who line the highway side, and who sit at the temple gates, are generally seeking healing. What are the temple gates? The temple gates are both sides of the passage to the temple. You might see a hundred beggars lining each side of this passage. Then all who go to the temple must pass them, both going into and coming out of the temple.
Take the case of Peter and John going to the temple, as told in the third chapter of Acts. There they saw a lame man and he asked them for alms.
Acts 3:6
Peter and John understood why this man was here; they could have given him a coin, but they did not. They used an old Eastern way of speaking when they said to him, "Silver and gold have I none". They meant, "for all the silver and gold in the world you cannot buy a new pair of legs. So we don't have that kind of help for you; we have the help of Jesus Christ of Nazareth in whose name you shall walk!"
If you read in the Acts of the Apostles a little farther, in Chapter 5, Verse 15, you will see that a while after the healing of this beggar in the gate of the temple, the people brought their sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them, and they might get healing.
Acts 5:15
Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
From this illustration from the Scriptures, you see how the Eastern mind works. It was the same at the time of Abraham, the time of Jesus, and in our time today. I have seen these things not only in my native land of India, but also during my travels through the Bible lands, and I can tell you they are true.
place where the beggars go, who are seeking healing, is to the holy waters,
generally holy rivers. Here, along the banks of the Ganges, the Euphrates,
and the Tigris, hundreds of beggars line the banks waiting for the
troubling of the waters. For thousands of years, the people of the East have
believed that one of the ways of being healed is to wait on the banks of holy
waters, and to get into the spot of water that is troubled. Very seldom does
anyone ever get cured by this means, but it is all the hope that they have.
Praise be to God, we have more hope than that. We who are born again of God's Spirit have Christ in us, the hope of glory. We are sons of God! So when we pray for healing, let us pray boldly, for we know He has promised to supply our needs out of His riches in glory. Then let us believe that we receive, and we shall do so. God bless you.

I plotted out the three sessions to cover topics at point-of-need in the semester. First, a colleague and I went over library resources available to them and how to get started with research (catalog and databases). This session was directly tied to assignments in classes the majority of the athletes take in their first semester. The session I covered this week was evaluating sources, and the final session next month will be on citations and avoiding plagiarism. The latter two sessions are not directly tied to a particular assignment, so the challenge is to get their attention and make the workshops relevant.
Since over the summer, the competition was fierce when we used a BINGO-like game to teach the athletes about library services available to them, I figured using a game again would appeal to the football players. The plan was to review search tips from the first session briefly, cover the importance of evaluating sources, show the students the CRAAP Test from CSU Chico, and then with these skills, let them loose on the game.
Students were broken up into groups of 3 (out of a 24-person class), and each team was given a different meme. The athletes would need to use their newly-acquired searching skills to find a source that explains what their meme means, and then use the CRAAP Test to determine if the source is credible or not. The first team(s) to finish, and then accurately explain their meme and credibility of their source would win candy (bribes do help).
|From http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/212976
Using this lesson a second time with pre-business freshmen in an MIS class, the colleague I delivered the instruction with to the athletes and I instead required using the CRAAP Test on library resources only, requiring the students to search the databases. A problem with memes and researching pop culture of course is that it's brand new, so it's not likely there are scholarly sources. We permitted use of news articles instead because of this. Because of the class and revision of the lesson plan, it seemed to be more successful the second time around.
And today was the third trial with this lesson, on the second section of the MIS class. Instead of assigning a different meme to each group, I chose the two memes most conducive to research, divided the class in half, and then broke each half into teams of three. The first team in group 1 to explain the meme and source credibility would win, as would the first team in group 2 to do so. This went much more smoothly and it generated more possibility for discussion when groups explained their results.
I have to say, after working with the athletes especially, my classroom management skills are really taking off.... dealing with students not paying attention, talking, doing other homework.... I'm finding a silent pause with direct eye contact, asking discussion questions so students have to pay attention to each other if not me, and saying stuff like "come on guys, really? this is to help you finish your homework faster" seems to help a little. I think the library instruction sessions will always be perceived as boring and irrelevant by a number of students, unfortunately (I certainly thought so for a good portion of my undergrad years), but if we can mix things up with games and interactivity, it definitely can start to change those perceptions.
Lesson plan - Original - added in more discussion of aspects of CRAAP Test: students seemed unsure about certain terminology, like currency, relevance, and authority
Individual handouts
Group activity - memes - Original before revising to only include library resources and handing out only the memes: casually pepper spray everything cop and Neil deGrasse Tyson reaction

…of Knoxville, with Jack Neely as your virtual guide. His "Secret History" column in the Metro Pulse is always an intriguing read. Any city that hosted both Union and Confederate rallies on the same street and at the same time is bound to have some notable stories to tell.
If you've got an appetite for more, there are a couple of books worth recommending. Robert Tracy McKenzie's Lincolnites and Rebels explores the political struggles in Knoxville during the Civil War era. Digby Seymour's Divided Loyalties provides a detailed account of the fighting in and around town, particularly the dramatic Confederate assault on Fort Sanders in 1863.

Tips for making macarons:
1) Which almond flour?
I use Phoon Huat's superfine almond flour. PH sells three types of almond flour. Only the one labeled "SUPERFINE" is good for macarons.
Almond flour that's not "macaron grade" is too coarse. Can you grind it to make it superfine? If you have a super duper grinder that's leagues ahead of what most people have at home, yes.
2) How to make French meringue for macarons?
I whisk fresh egg white on speed #3 to start with (#24 is the fastest on my electric whisk). I then drop to #1 after sugar is added. Finally, I whisk by hand to finish off. The meringue, when it's done, is at stiff peak stage, i.e. the peak is straight, not hooked. It's smooth and glossy, not grainy and matte.
Whisking slowly helps make the meringue stable. A stiff, stable meringue is crucial to everything that's important in macarons: the foot, the height, the sleek crust, the inside. If you don't want flat, footless, rough macrons with a hollow inside, you must get the meringue right. Remember: whisk SLOWLY.
3) How to hit the "macaronage" sweet spot?
Mixing the meringue with almond flour and icing sugar correctly is very important. If the batter is under- or overmixed, the macarons will be flat, footless, rough, or hollow inside.
How to tell when the mixing, the so-called macaronage, hits the sweet spot? By testing. When the batter's texture is smooth, I stop folding every 10-15 folds to drop some batter from about 25 cm high. When the batter doesn't move at all after landing, it's not ready. When it moves ever so slightly, it's almost there. From this point, I stop every 3-5 folds to observe the batter. When it oozes a bit after I stop folding, it's done.
4) Why do macarons have feet?
Before the batter is baked, it needs to rest till the surface isn't tacky. The dry surface is crucial to the macarons forming feet. Why? Because it's a shield, which stops steam formed during baking from rising. Since the steam can't go up, it looks for an alternative exit. Where's that? Between the batter and baking tray. That's why macarons have frilly bottoms, aka feet.
5) Why don't your macarons have feet?
Cracked macarons are footless (or have poorly formed feet). Why? Because most of the steam escapes through the cracks, not the space between the batter and the baking tray. Refer to Q4.
6) Why do your macarons crack?
If the oven temperature is too high, or there's too much egg white in the batter, macarons crack because too much steam is created. Air bubbles that are too big could lead to cracks too.
Batter that isn't dry enough when it's baked could also result in cracks. Macaron batter doesn't dry well if it has too much egg white, it is overmixed, or the resting time is too short. Poking the batter when it's dry or half-dry – maybe to remove air bubbles – creates wet spots. Touching the batter before it's dry – to check if it is – creates wet spots too.
7) Why are your macarons hollow inside?
When the meringue is overwhisked or whisked too quickly, it's grainy; or it turns grainy whilst the batter is waiting to be baked. Grainy meringue can't rise well, so the batter doesn't rise to fill the big air pockets created by heat. That results in a hollow under the crust.
9) Why do your macarons blister?
Because big bubbles in the batter expand when heated.
8) Why are the results from your single batch of batter uneven?
Only evenly mixed batter yields even results. When the batter is uneven, some macarons have feet and some don't; some are hollow inside and some aren't.
10) Why are your macarons rough?
Because the almond flour is coarse, the meringue is grainy, or the batter is undermixed.
11) Why do your macarons stick to the parchment paper?
Because they are underbaked, removed from the paper whilst still warm, or piped on the batter used to glue the parchment paper to the baking tray.
12) How to make macarons less sweet?
Do not change the recipe for macaron shells. It will end in tears if you do. Instead, go for a filling that has a bitter ingredient, such as coffee, matcha or cocoa buttercream. Homemade yam paste, green/red bean paste or lotus paste would be good too. You can make these with as little sugar as you like, to balance the macaron shells' sweetness. Imagine macarons filled with thick yam paste that's made with coconut milk. These "orh nee" macarons would give the buttercream and ganache lot a run for their money.
(Recipe for 20 macaron shells)
40 g superfine almond flour
50 g icing sugar
35 g egg white
25 g castor sugar
small pinch fine salt
5 drops liquid red food colouring
click here for Swiss meringue buttercream recipe
1. Cut parchment paper to fit bottom of 13" x 10" baking tray. Draw twenty 3.3 cm circles on paper with pencil, evenly spread out.
2. Place piping tip #802 in piping bag. Cut tip of bag to fit piping tip. Tie bag just above piping tip with rubber band.
3. Place almond flour and icing sugar in food processor. Blitz till mixture looks lump free, scraping down as necessary, then blitz a bit more (to be doubly sure all lumps are obliterated). Alternatively, sift almond flour and icing sugar.
4. Whisk egg white on slow speed till thick foam forms. Gradually add castor sugar, still whisking. Reduce speed. Continue to whisk till firm peak stage, i.e. peak is hooked. Reduce to manual speed. Continue to whisk till just hitting stiff peak stage, i.e. peak is straight. (Meringue is now smooth, not grainy.)
5. Sprinkle half of almond mixture on meringue. Cut with spatula till almond mixture is wet. Sprinkle with remaining almond mixture. Cut as before. Fold till just evenly mixed.
6. Add food colouring and fine salt.
7. Fold batter till colour is even and texture is smooth, pausing now and then to scrape down spatula.
8. Continue folding, pausing every 10-15 folds to drop batter from about 25 cm high. When batter moves ever so slightly after landing, it's almost ready.
9. Keep folding, now pausing to observe every 3-5 folds. When batter oozes slightly after you stop folding, it's ready.
10. Transfer batter into piping bag. Remove rubber band. Twist top of piping bag tightly, squeezing batter downward.
11. Pipe small dollops of batter in corners of baking tray. Place parchment paper on tray, pencilled side facing down. Press paper against batter so that it sticks well. Pipe using drawn circles as guide, avoiding batter that's under parchment paper.
12. Rap baking tray against worktop – hard, 4-6 times – till tips of batter disappear or almost disappear. Prick visible air bubbles with skewer. Smooth holes and remaining tips.
13. Set tray aside till batter isn't sticky when touched lightly, about 30 minutes depending on the weather. (I put the tray in front of a table fan turned on low because Singapore is very humid.)
14. Whilst macaron batter is drying, preheat oven to 135°C. When batter is ready, bake on middle shelf of oven for 30 minutes.
15. Remove tray from oven. Drag parchment paper onto wire rack. Leave till macarons are cool. Carefully peel parchment paper from macarons.
16. Separate macaron shells into pairs that are same size. Pipe filling of choice on one shell and top with the other.
