Practical Ideas and Strategies
How can we create a more rigorous curriculum with broader and more complex strategies for our gifted students while continuing full group instruction for the rest of our students?

A Message From Your Seminar Leader
Dear Colleague:
In my many years in the classroom, I have worked with hundreds of students who need a faster pace of instruction and more challenging instruction. Throughout my career I have asked myself how can I provide a qualitatively different curriculum, one that encourages rigor and challenge for advanced learners already meeting or exceeding standards in our classrooms? How can I develop within my students the persistence to raise the ceiling of personal excellence when it continues to become increasingly challenging for teachers to motivate gifted students?
I have designed this seminar to take a very practical look at these questions and many aspects of your existing curriculum, the teaching strategies of differentiation and acceleration, as well as curriculum compacting and flexible grouping as an essential part of your instruction for gifted students. By creating depth and complexity of curriculum, a faster pace for students who demonstrate mastery of skills, and reaching further in products and outcomes of their learning, gifted students will have the tools to reach their full potential.
I look forward to sharing with you a wealth of practical ideas and strategies that can help meet the needs of your gifted students. They will understand that by developing a passion for learning, a responsibility for completion, and internal motivation, they will produce a "Perpetual Cycle of Learning" that will assist them throughout their entire lives. We can help all students develop their unique gifts and talents and provide an environment conducive to their special needs, which will create success for each child in our classrooms.

The Shield co-stars Michael Chiklis and Forest Whitaker are set to reunite for the crime thriller Pawn. The indie centers on a hostage situation gone wrong, as an ex-con "becomes entangled in a manipulative chess game between the Feds, local police and the mob." In addition to Chiklis and Whitaker, Deadline reports that Ray Liotta and Common are also set to star with David A. Armstrong making his feature directorial debut. Chiklis will be producing the pic alongside Brad Luff, Jeff Most, and Michael Becker. The script was written by Jay Anthony White and production is set to begin on December 1st.
Chiklis recently wrapped his role as the villain in the revenge thriller Parker opposite Jason Statham, while Whitaker just starred in The Last Stand with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Common can currently be seen on AMC's western drama series Hell on Wheels.

MINNEAPOLIS >> The Lakers consider it a normal day if the emergence of healthy players returning to the lineup coincides with a key teammate taking their place on the injured reserve list.
So it's hardly surprising that just when point guards Steve Nash, Steve Blake and Jordan Farmar returned from injury, Pau Gasol will sit out for at least two weeks because of a strained right groin, effectively keeping him sidelined through All-Star weekend Feb. 14-16 in New Orleans. Gasol's earliest return date falls on Feb. 19 when the Lakers host the Houston Rockets at Staples Center, exactly one day before the NBA trade deadline. That marks a notable development considering Gasol's uncertain standing with the Lakers.
The Lakers have been engaged in trade talks in a deal that would send Gasol to the Phoenix Suns while the Lakers would absorb the expiring $14.5 million contract from the injured Emeka Okafor. But those discussions have halted, according to a person familiar with the situation. Such a deal also would hinge on Gasol's health and whether Phoenix would send first-round draft picks to the Lakers.
The Lakers initially penciled him out for this week's trip with stops in Cleveland (tonight) and Philadelphia (Friday). Gasol also received a platelet-rich plasma therapy injection Monday in hopes of accelerating the healing process in his groin. But the Lakers wouldn't say what prompted the updated timetable.
His latest treatment involves drawing his own blood, spun in a centrifuge and re-injected into the affected area. He also had posted a photo of the procedure on his Instagram account and added, "I will work hard to be back with the team as soon as possible."
Gasol spoke too soon.
"The offensive end is where we're going to miss the most," Lakers coach Mike D'Antoni said of Gasol, who averaged 20.6 points and 12.1 rebounds through 15 games in January. "We're missing a playmaker. Thank God we're getting some of them back. But for the last month for Pau, everything was going through him."
Loose lips
Keeping to his recent pledge on Twitter, Magic Johnson resisted criticizing the Lakers.
Kind of.
Johnson was asked several times about the Lakers on Monday on the Arsenio Hall Show, and the man of many opinions tried holding back.
Hall wondered if President Obama ever asked Johnson about the Lakers' struggles.
"How did you know?" Johnson said, laughing. "He definitely asked."
What did Johnson say?
"I made a promise I wouldn't talk bad about the Lakers," Johnson said. "They don't like when I tell the truth."
He recently visited The Tonight Show and a panel of Los Angeles Times editors and writers griping about the Lakers. He questioned the Lakers hiring D'Antoni as head coach last season over Phil Jackson and argued D'Antoni's fast-paced offense largely contributes to the team's defensive miscues. Johnson also questioned the competence of vice president of player personnel Jim Buss.
Last stand
Aware that this marked his final game with the Lakers, Manny Harris left a lasting impression. He scored 19 points on 8-of-11 shooting in 20 minutes off the bench in the Lakers' 109-99 loss Tuesday to the Minnesota Timberwolves at Target Center.
The Lakers won't retain Harris because of their flux of point guards and the team's hope to maintain roster flexibility. NBA teams can only sign players to two 10-day contracts before it becomes guaranteed the rest of the season.
"I have to get better in some areas, but I'm going to continue to work hard," said Harris, who averaged 6.6 points in eight games after leading the Development League in scoring with the D-Fenders. "I still proved I can play with this league. You have to stick with it."

The cold weather months are just about behind those of us in places where a brutal, snow-covered winter is the norm. Finally, our dream of heading back to the golf course is about to come to fruition.
As is the case each year, golf manufacturers have released their latest lines of clubs, which a lot of us can't wait to get our hands on. For others of us, we wouldn't even think of replacing that one, sorry looking, eyesore of a club in our bags because it's our golf version of old faithful. You love that particular club and will never part with it because it's come through for you in the clutch more times than you deserved.
Other clubs, however, could use a serious upgrade. For this week's, 'A Quick Nine,' feature, we asked you to fill in the blank again: I'd like most like to upgrade my…
Here are the top 9 answers we received from our loyal PGA.com Facebook fans:
1. "Irons. I am playing with Taylormade Burner Oversized I purchased in 1997. I have been told by PGA pros that I could probably be a single digit handicap if I just updated my irons." -- Robert Ford
2. "My driver/woods, my Strikers are old and pretty small by today's standards. I'd like to get some Ping G15's. I've tested them and like the way they hit, plus would be a nice match to my old reliable Ping-Eye 2's!" -- John C Joossens
3. "I'm not sure if this qualifies as an 'upgrade,' but I need a whole set of clubs since mine were stolen from me in my last move. It appears as though my brother, who was helping me move, left them in the driveway of my old house. But, I didn't realize this until much later when they were long since gone. Any of you guys replacing your old clubs, I'd be more than happy to take them off your hands!" -- Michael Robinson
4. "My Driver. First, because I had it custom made and my younger brother liked it so much he stole it. Second, because I need one custom made for my height and my swing speed. Actually, I need a complete new set, custom fit, but could not afford them. Yea I know, cry me a river." -- Brian Monahan
5. "Would have to say my putter would be No. 1 on my list. The putter I have (a Ping) is the putter I bought when I first started playing golf 23 years ago. I suspect that some of the more technologically advanced putters MIGHT be able to help me putt a LITTLE better." -- Jim Orr
6. "Wedges. I think updating wedges in my bag to a CG15 would give more control around the greens and comply with the groove rule I have to follow in my tournaments, and hey, who doesn't like to see a shot spin back 8 feet from 100 yards?" -- Alec Patsey
7. "Wedges. When it really comes down to it, you score around the greens. It's always a nice feeling when you know you have a club that can hit the shot you need, especially from a hundred out and in. I love my Vokey's." -- Travis Quinoa
8. "If I were to upgrade a club I would upgrade my putter. I have no particular replacement in mind but would chose to replace my putter for psychological reasons. It's the most used club in the bag and is connected to the part of the game that will more often then not make or break a good score. If I have something in my hand that screams fantastic, it will give me the confidence I need to steady hand and to always put enough into the ball to roll it past the hole, if not in of course." -- Wes Bullock
9. "My ball retriever... Thinking of getting a 15-foot aluminum telescoping JP Lann. My 5-foot model is good, just want to get those deep ones back." -- Brian Nowak

Current Theme Song (aka what's playing on my ipod right now): Battlefield by Jordin Sparks.
I have issued a challenge, and I have been answered. Chelsea from The Page Flipper has generously agreed to meet me out in battle. But tis no ordinary duel. This is a duel of costumes. You heard me right, we are about to battle with needles and thread (and if I know anything about me, duct tape. Lots of duct tape). :)
You see, in a post a while back she mentioned that she was planning on being Katniss for Halloween. Now that got me thinking of what fictional character I would want to be. But it just kept coming back to Katniss. She's so cool, and I actually have the hair for it (she usually wears a braid). So she and I are going to battle it out on a different plane, but we will meet nonetheless. Let the games begin!
And here is where you come in (and this is all her brilliant thinking by the way) - we want you to join us. Not even as Hunger Games compatriots, but as fictional friends. Forget the traditional witches, ghosts, and skanky costumes this Halloween, go for something grander. Let's make this Halloween a fictional one.
I am making this my first official blog challenge. Go. Spread the word. With how connected our blogosphere is, united together, we could rock the literary world with pure awesomeness.

this sounds really cool, now if I can just figure out what character I want to be! Most book characters seem like normal everyday girls which makes it hard. and I can't be lame and do hermione when you can just buy a costume for that. hmmm....

I've actually done this with my best friend before, with a slight difference. We plan on doing it again this year. We dressed up as characters from books we were writing and got a lot of strange looks from people who asked what we were dressed as. I had to explain that my hand-sewn/pinned costume was that of an Atlantean Princess. This year we'll both be characters from our NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) novels. My character for this year, Dess, is from a steampunk version of 1904. This should be interesting.

Great idea! I finished my costume last month. I am going as my own version of the caterpillar from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. The outfit is inspired by Victorian fashion.

Amber[ella]: I know what you mean, but I suppose that can make it all the easier, right? :) I'll be doing a post today on some ideas.
Paradox: That is the coolest thing ever, and something I've been wanting to do for a long time. Do tell me you are going to post up pictures!
Jazz: That is so cool. I cannot wait to see it.

Recall to mind, O you transgressors.
Remember the former things of old,
For I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like Me,
Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things that are not yet done,
Saying, 'My counsel shall stand, And I will do all My pleasure,'
From the east I summon a bird of prey;
from a far-off land, a man to fulfil my purpose.
What I have said, that I will bring about;
what I have planned, that I will do.
The Gospel is the Divinely Controlled Worldwide Ruling Government of The Kingdom of God
"Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted, Who are far from righteousness:
I bring near my righteousness; it is not far off, and my salvation will not delay;
This Kingdom's arrival was foretold in the scriptures by every one of my martyred prophets
including & by the blood of The Lord Jesus Christ.
This is a reminder of the gospel according to the Messiah Our Lord Jesus
Jesus was not the gospel, or as he taught
The Kingdom of God,
he declared the truth of
The Almighty Father God
in conjunction with the good news of the
Divine Government's Supreme Purpose.
He was the messenger of the covenant from God
not the message.
God has decreed Jesus will rule all countries
with the saints at his side
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.
Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven:
for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt has lost his savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick;
and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Think not that I am come to destroy the law or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill.
For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled.
Whosoever, therefore, shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.
Ye have heard that it was said of them of old time, Thou shalt not kill, and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment:
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.
Therefore if thou bring thy gift to the altar, and there rememberest that thy brother hath ought against thee;
Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first, be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift.
Agree with thine adversary quickly, whiles thou art in the way with him;
lest at any time the adversary deliver thee to the judge, and the judge deliver thee to the officer,
and thou be cast into prison.
Verily I say unto thee, Thou shalt by no means come out thence, till thou hast paid the uttermost farthing.
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed
adultery with her already in his heart.
And if thy right eye offends thee, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast it from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not that thy whole body should be cast into hell.
It hath been said, Whosoever shall put away his wife, let him give her writing of divorcement:
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.
Again, ye have heard that it hath been said by them of old time, Thou shalt not forswear thyself,
but shalt perform unto the Lord thine oaths:
Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than this cometh of evil.
Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:
But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
And if any man will sue thee at the law, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain.
Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.
Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? do not even the publicans the same?
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? do not even the publicans so?
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
And when you pray, Do not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the churches and on the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
But you, when you pray, enter into thy bedroom, and when you have shut the door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and the Father which see in secret shall reward thee openly.
But when you pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
Be not e like them: for your Father knows what things you have need of, before you even ask him.
This is how you should always pray...
Our Father who art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will, will be done on earth,
as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive me my sin's,
as I forgive all who those sin against me.
lead me not into temptation,
but deliver me from evil:
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power,
and all the glory, for ever.
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt,
and where thieves break through and steal:
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,
where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:
For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single,
thy whole body shall be full of light.
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
No man can serve two masters:
for either he will hate the one, and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life,
what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on.
Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment?
Behold the birds of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns;
yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they?
And why take ye thought for designer clothes?
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they shop:
And yet I say unto you, That even The Queen herself in all her glory was not dressed like one of these.
Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and to morrow is cast into the oven,
shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith?
Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink?
or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed?
(For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:)
for your heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things.
But seek ye first the kingdom of God,
and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Take therefore no thought for the morrow:
for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself.
Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.
Most priests and churches claim to preach the Kingdom of God. But just what exactly is this kingdom they constantly talk about? And where can you find it or indeed when does it appear? Is it in Heaven? or is it the British Empire, perhaps the universal church, Is it in the vatican or the hearts of the Pope and his bishops or merely the good within each person?
Millions believe these popular ideas but they are all wrong! In fact none of them are even close to being right.
For far too long now God's word has been ignored.In fact it can't go on much longer. Soon you will begin to understand The Kingdom of God like never before. Many have been it total ignorance and denial about things that are soon to come to pass. Many believe that a conglomerate of the world's most elite families and organisations are about to bring in a one world government. For years they have publically made this quite clear. The universal military complex is doing all that it can to bring about such an event, but will only try at their peril it is declared and therefore decreed it will not succeed.
Many are confused who would bring it? After all many believe a one world government is the only way to save civilisation. What laws would it administer? How would they be enforced? Would sovereign nations relinquish their authority to it? Will it succeed or will it eventually oppress and enslave all mankind? these questions always stop leaders in their tracks' In Mark 1: 15 Jesus said, ... "The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel". Millions across the planet don't even understand what the gospel is. even gospel believers don't concern themselves with what the gospel is, The truth of the gospel has been hidden from the vast majority of professing Christians. Most think It's about the person of Jesus. Certainly Jesus's roll was very important about bringing in the gospel, but he was not the gospel. He preached and taught in conjunction with the gospel. And the Holy Bible mentions this. Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, according to Mark 1: 14 in Mark 1 : 15 he went on to say The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Which proves there is only one real gospel that is The Kingdom of God.
If any government deserves money from inheritances the soundest & safest investment should only be to the divinely controlled 2020 government of THE KINGDOM OF GOD. At least the whole world would benefit from Gods love, and those responsible for distributing it would be able to sleep soundly at night knowing it would never be used to harm or hurt anybody, it would be the most righteousness thing to do. Even The Lord God I'm sure would look favourably on the founders of his Kingdom of God on earth as it becomes established in line with his will.. A very sound and divine investment for all concerned. If God is for it then what can be against it?
ANY TYPE OF GIFT LARGE OR SMALL will allow the Lord Jesus to do so much MORE for the Father God & the whole world, his 2020 Kingdom will be built here on earth as it is in heaven Amen.
Thank you & bless you for supporting The Lord Jesus as he establishes...
Re:-Wealth Transfers and Savvy Investors Smile.
Please help The Almighty Father God build the Kingdom of God here on earth in 2019 so his will can be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Praise for Rajiv Chandrasekaran's Little America:
"Beautifully written. . . . A brilliant and courageous work of reportage. . . . Rajiv Chandrasekaran has done it again. Like Imperial Life in the Emerald City, Little America is a . . . deeply reported account of how a divided United States government and its dysfunctional bureaucracy have foiled American efforts abroad."
—The New York Times Book Review
"Fascinating and fresh . . . Chandrasekaran is a superb reporter and graceful writer whose individual vignettes, focused on military and civilian misfires, are on-target and often mortifying."
—The Wall Street Journal
"Brilliant . . . Only a journalist with Chandrasekaran's experience and skill could tell this extraordinarily complicated story with such clarity."
"A scalding and in-depth critique of U.S. policy and performance in Afghanistan."
—The Star-Ledger
"Chandrasekaran draws vivid sketches of how Karzai and his family and their allies operate as a gang of looters, frustrating every attempt to create an honest government that could confront their Taliban enemy . . . The reader gets a keen sense of the chaos that reigns among the Americans and their allies."
—The Washington Post
"A thoughtful guide to President Obama's 'good war' [and] a devastating indictment of a dysfunctional war machine . . . Chandrasekaran's expose is a stark warning to rethink how America uses its power."
—San Francisco Chronicle
"Chandrasekaran's apt portrayal of the Afghan perspective and on-the-ground tensions makes the book a must for policy shapers and voters alike."
—Mother Jones
"Sharp and subtle . . . Enormously informative . . . Little America does not disappoint."
—Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
"A must-read account . . . Little America is the best work yet in addressing our military-diplomatic campaign in Afghanistan and the dysfunction that stymies it."
—Peter J. Munson, Small Wars Journal
"Searing . . . Solid and timely reporting, crackling prose, and more than a little controversy will make this one of the summer's hot reads."
—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Clearheaded . . . Well-researched and compelling . . . Chandrasekaran captures the absurdity of a bumbling bureaucracy attempting to reengineer in its own image a society that is half a world away . . . A timely, convincing portrait of an occupation in crisis."
—Kirkus Reviews
"Drawing on interviews with key participants and three years of first-hand reportage, Chandrasekaran delivers a bracing diagnosis of the problem."

"For my money . . . the late John Updike was the best American belletrist ever, and Higher Gossip . . . confirms everything I've believed about his brilliance, his versatility, and his depth."—Larry McMurty, Harper's
"As [Higher Gossip] reminds us, Updike was that rare creature: an all-around man of letters, a literary decathlete who brought to his criticism an insider's understanding of craft and technique; a first-class appreciator of talent, capable of describing other artists' work with nimble, pictorial brilliance; an ebullient observer, who could bring to essays about dinosaurs or golf or even the theory of relativity a contagious, boyish sense of wonder."—Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
"A timely reminder of the graceful companionship that Updike offered to his readers—a presence that will be sorely missed."—The Christian Science Monitor

(RNN) – Special counsel Robert Mueller said former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort repeatedly lied to prosecutors, even after he had a plea deal to cooperate, according to a document filed Friday evening.
Manafort lied about his interactions with Konstantin Kilimnik – a Russian national who is under indictment for work in Ukraine – a $125,000 wire transfer, and his continued contact with Trump administration officials as he was working with the special counsel's office.
On Nov. 8, prosecutors informed Manafort's lawyers they believed he had lied to them "in multiple ways and on multiple occasions."
After signing the plea agreement, Manafort told prosecutors he had no contact with anyone in the administration.
How Manafort breached his agreement with the special counsel is described in Friday's document. However, it's heavily redacted and will be kept under seal.
Manafort was found guilty in August on felony counts of bank and tax fraud. He pleaded guilty in September to conspiracy against the U.S. and conspiracy to obstruct justice and started cooperating with Mueller's Russia probe.
Manafort claims he has been truthful with his meetings with the special counsel's office.
President Donald Trump has refused to rule out a possible pardon for his former campaign manager.

Dream fulfilled: 8-year-old pays it forward
Matthew Jacko hand-delivers toys to patients at Children's Hospital
For 8-year-old Matthew Jacko, it's a dream come true -- and then some.
Matthew has an inoperable brain tumor and is home on hospice care. He smiles, he tells knock-knock jokes and pulls pranks on family members and even complete strangers.
He told WTAE, "laughter is the best thing in the whole wide world."
One week ago, he had a simple wish: to give every child at Children's Hospital a gift to make them smile.
Thanks to an overwhelming amount of support, his dream came true. (Photos: Matthew Jacko delivers toys to kids at Children's Hospital)
Matthew asked the public to sponsor a toy stuffed monkey for $20. Within 12 hours of sharing his story on WTAE, the goal was met to purchase 500 monkeys. Days later, they received the news that there were enough donations for 1,000 toys.
With the additional stuffed animals, children at Children's Institute, the Ronald McDonald House and Forbes pediatric unit among several others will also receive the toys.
"I don't know if it has completely sunk in yet either, the response has been overwhelming," said Matthew's mom, Carey Mynahan-Jacko.
"I would like to thank the community for all their efforts and everybody around the nation that has donated. I mean it's not just in Pittsburgh. This goes all around the country," said Matthew's dad, Brian.
Matthew hand-delivered a few of the monkeys to children staying in the same section of Children's Hospital he once stayed in.
"I hope this monkey makes you smile," he told the kids.
Matthew had help from his parents, his sister Jocelyn, his uncle Patrick and several close friends including Lisa Donnelly.
Donnelly started the donation process and said she never could have imagined a strong, positive reaction like they've had.
To top it off, the Pittsburgh Penguins welcomed Matthew to a game this week and he got a chance to meet Sidney Crosby, his favorite player.
"I'm just so excited," he said to a child at the hospital.
And to sum up his week in a word, he described it as "awesome."

Cesidio Tallini (New York, 10 May 1962 – ) — also known as MT Kaisiris Tallini, or BCT — is the Bishop and founder of the Cesidian Church, and the Chancellor of Saint René Descartes University. Tallini is the world's first micronationalist recognised in de jure, or acknowledged in de facto fashion by several government or quasi-government bodies. He is also the first micronationalist to actually be recognised for multiple nationalities or citizenships within the same developing new region of the world, so Tallini is both a micronationalist and a multinationalist. Tallini has assisted two micronations — Principado da Pontinha and Kingdom of Ourania — with their development; claims two Native African — Republic of Cabinda and Southern Cameroons — citizenships by naturalisation; and claims to be the world's first full Antarctic citizen by affiliation.
Tallini has earned both American and Italian high school diplomas in the past; has earned several different post-secondary education diplomas and certificates, including a National Work Readiness Credential from the National Work Readiness Council, and a Certificate of Qualification to Practice from the Law Society of Cabinda; and has earned a BS degree from the University of Phoenix, another BSc degree, two religious doctorate degrees, and was awarded two honourary doctorates.
Tallini is also the de facto or de jure author of several books in English and Italian; the father of Cesidian law, Cesidian analytic theology, Cesidian salubriology, Cesidian societal-political science, societal geography, and societal linguistics; the developer of several indigenous and novel time, linguistic, educational, and intellectual property systems; and an alternative scholar.
Finally, Tallini is also the Guru and founder of Global Earth Oceans (GEO), a new region under development.

Ron Perlman, Thomas Jane and John Malkovich and cast posse up apocalypse-style, ready to fight bone-blade mutants in the new Mutant Chronicles flick. This apocalyptic movie has a cracker-jack scifi cast. Click through for a closer look, plus the latest "we're militant and dirty" movie poster.
Mutant Chronicles takes place in a dried-up Earth. The world was destroyed by warring companies: the Capitol, Bauhaus, Mishima and Imperial. When a fight opens up a sealed underground world, the world becomes overrun with the underworld inhabitants, necrmutants. The mutants all have long bone-blades protruding from their sides, which they use as weapons.
Instead of fleeing, Major Mitch Hunter (Thomas Jane) and his gang of sexy soldiers journey to the depths of the planet to end the mutants once and for all, saving the Earth. John Malkovich plays Capitol's CEO, who can abandon Earth at a moments notice, leaving its human inhabitants unprotected and vulnerable to the mutants. Ron Perlman is Brother Samuel a man who believes that he is the prophesied "deliverer" of man. It's Samuel who convinces Hunter to lead the battle and save the world. Also make a mutant appearance is katana wielding bad-ass butt-kicker Devon Aoki.
Event Horizon writer Phillip Eisner is penning this screenplay, which means it should be scary as all hell. Note to Eisner: please reprise characters going crazy and ripping out their eyes, still number one scary moment in my scifi books.

This year's Grammys had more performances than awards being given on stage.
As I expected and loved to hear that Sam Smith won most of the awards for the night, bringing 4 Grammys awards home. To see the list of winners for the night, go here.
Even though, this year T-Swift was not the one who brought the most trophies home (like she used to for many years on different award shows), I would still vote her to have the best style or dress for the night. She was spotted wearing a blue-green sleeveless long gown from Elie Saab, which has an opening on the middle parts that made her legs even look longer :) Bottom line, I think she's simply gorgeous on that night despite what people say about the dress.
Seems like Tay-Tay shake off any hard feelings for Kanye this year. I love seeing this picture :)

Octuplets mother Nadya Suleman says being known as "Octomom" makes her feel like a "carnival attraction."
Appearing on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" Tuesday, the mother of 14 children told Winfrey that she will never do a reality television show and that "a parent must provide for their kids, not the other way around."
Last June, Suleman's lawyer said she had signed a deal to star in a reality TV series to be filmed by a Netherlands-based production company.
Suleman gave birth to six boys and two girls in January 2009. The oldest of her six other children is eight.
The Southern California woman also told Winfrey via satellite that she feels a "tremendous amount of guilt" when she holds one or two of her children and can't be there for the others.

"I would like a lot more detail on how to make the LastPass Android app work with apps that require logons and passwords. I love how LastPass works on my laptop and desktop machines; using it here has been second nature to me. But I find myself logging onto my phone's LastPass app and cutting and pasting. Surely there's a better way?" – Keith K.
A great question, since the mobile experience is inherently different than the desktop experience. Because the mobile platforms are more closed, we can't integrate into the mobile browsers and apps as easily. This means that LastPass can't "see" into those other browsers and apps in order to fill your data there, unless you're using Dolphin Browser or Firefox Mobile on Android, for which we do offer addons. The LastPass app does allow you to login, view your stored data, and tap an entry to launch it within the LastPass app, where LastPass can fill the data and you can login to your sites.
Copy-paste is one option for logging in on other apps or browsers. On Android, if you long-tap on a site entry in your LastPass app vault, you can choose the "copy username" or "copy password" options to then multitask back to another browser or app and paste there.There are, however, a few other alternatives on Android that may be more useful for your workflow.
LastPass Copy Notifications
There are two ways to activate the copy notifications:
- In the LastPass app, tap and hold on a site entry and select "copy notifications"
- The username and password fields will appear as notifications in your phone's notification bar
- Drag down the bar to tap the "copy username" notification
- Paste your username in the browser or app where you want to fill your data
- Repeat those copy-paste steps with the password
You can also set the "copy notifications" feature to be the default action for tapping your site entries in the LastPass app vault. In the vault, tap your device's "menu" button, select the "More" menu, then open the "Preferences", and set the "Default site action" to "Copy Notifications".
LastPass Input Method
The LastPass input method allows you to switch to a LastPass keyboard that has a special button for autofilling your passwords in other apps or browsers. To get started:
- Enable the LastPass Input method in your LastPass app Preferences menu
- Multitask to the app where you want to login
- Long-tap in the app field, and select "Input"
- Tap the LastPass option to switch your keyboard
- Tap the asterisk button in the keyboard to display any matching logins

Hope College has been recognized as a "U.S. Student Top Producer," and is first in Michigan among bachelor's institutions, for the number of students to receive Fulbright awards for 2013-14.
The U.S. Department of State recently announced the complete list of colleges and universities that produced the most 2013-14 Fulbright U.S. Students. The Fulbright Program is the U.S. government's flagship international educational exchange program. The success of the top-producing institutions is highlighted in the Monday, Oct. 28, edition of "The Chronicle of Higher Education."
A total of four students from Hope won Fulbright awards for 2013-14. Hope's success rate was also high, with four of six applicants receiving awards.
Several Hope students or recent graduates have received the awards through the years, including four each in 2008 and 2009, two each in 2010 and 2011, and three in 2012.
"Hope College has been producing more and more strong applicants for the Fulbright program over the past few years," said Dr. David Cunningham, who is director of the college's CrossRoads Project and Center for Writing and Research as well as a professor of religion. He and Dr. Janis Gibbs, associate professor of history, mentor Hope's student Fulbright applicants. "We work very closely with those students who are willing to invest serious time and energy in the application process. That investment seems to be paying good dividends."
The State Department's lists group recipient institutions in four categories: bachelor's institutions, master's institutions, doctoral/research institutions and specialized institutions. In addition to Hope's first-place ranking in Michigan among bachelor's institutions, only 30 bachelor's institutions nationwide had more students receive Fulbrights. The only institutions of any type in Michigan to have as many or more students receive the awards were the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, with 32, and Michigan State University, with five, both of which are on the listing of doctoral/research institutions.
The four Hope students who received awards were Tessa Angell of Grand Rapids, Rachel Elzinga of Doylestown, Pa., Andreana Rosnik of Shelby Township and Erin Wilhelmi of Cary, Ill. Each graduated in May.
Angell is an English-language teaching assistant at a secondary school in the Cantabria region of Spain. Elzinga is an English language teaching assistant at a rural school in Nepal and is also working with the Nepal English Language Teachers' Association (NELTA) to contribute to the development of English curriculum and teacher training. Rosnik is at the University of Barcelona in Spain conducting theoretical chemistry research related to understanding quantum coherence effects in photosynthetic light-harvesting. Wilhelmi will be serving in a province in Argentina in 2014, in conjunction with the nation's March-November school year, as a teacher assistant in an English teacher training college.
Since its inception in 1946, the Fulbright Program has provided more than 325,000 participants—chosen for their academic merit and leadership potential — with the opportunity to study, teach and conduct research, exchange ideas and contribute to finding solutions to shared international concerns. In the past 67 years, more than 44,000 students from the United States have benefited from the Fulbright experience. More than 1,800 U.S. students, artists and young professionals in more than 100 different fields of study were offered Fulbright Program grants to study, teach English, and conduct research in more than 140 countries throughout the world beginning this fall.
The Fulbright Program is sponsored by the United States Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs. The primary source of funding for the Fulbright Program is an annual appropriation made by the United States Congress to the Department of State. Participating governments and host institutions, corporations and foundations in foreign countries and in the United States also provide direct and indirect support. The J. William Fulbright Foreign Scholarship Board, composed of 12 educational and public leaders appointed by the President of the United States, formulates policies for the administration of the Fulbright Program, establishes criteria for the selection of candidates, and approves candidates nominated for awards.
In the United States, the Institute of International Education administers and coordinates the activities relevant to the U.S. Student Program on behalf of the U.S. Department of State, including conducting an annual competition for the scholarships.
The Fulbright Program also awards grants to U.S. teachers and faculty to conduct research and teach overseas. Katherine Sullivan, associate professor of art at Hope, currently holds one of the awards, and is spending the 2013-14 school year in India. Several other members of the Hope faculty have also received Fulbright awards through the years, among them Gibbs, who held a Fulbright-Hays Doctoral Research Abroad Fellowship during 1991-92, spending the year in Cologne, Germany, conducting research for her dissertation.
In addition, some 4,000 new foreign Fulbright students and scholars come to the United States annually to study for graduate degrees, conduct research and teach at U.S. universities, colleges and secondary schools.

DUBAI – Field Advice, Scandinavia's leading supplier of food packaging, has recently signed a partnership with Alpha Sky as part of its international expansion plans in the Middle East and to meet the increasing demand for environmentally friendly disposable containers in the region.
Mark Remmy Sali, Managing Director of Field Advice, signed the Memorandum of Understanding with Ayman Al Hilali, CEO of Alpha Sky, last week in the presence of Denmark's Minister of Environment and Food Esben Lunde Larsen.
Under the agreement, Alpha Sky and Field Advice will supply nature-based disposable tableware and food packaging to restaurants, airlines, hotels, retail and other businesses that cater to consumers who prefer on-the-go, speedy, and convenient food services.
Field Advice tableware and packaging products are made out of renewable resources such as bamboo, palm leaf, sugarcane fiber and starch.
The starch-based packaging look and feel like the plastic containers widely used in the food service industry yet are biodegradable and sustainable.
Ayman said that the growing trend in takeaway and food delivery backed by mobile platforms is raising the demand for disposable food containers globally, and consumers are becoming more conscious not only about what they put inside their bodies but also about how those products are brought to their homes.
"We believe that our food containers is the answer to the demand for packaging that is sustainable and not harmful to the people and the environment," Ayman said. He added that everyone should take action to support various government initiatives in the region for responsible waste management and the use of sustainable resources. — SG

Building Community, One Family at a Time
By Robert Schroeder
NLU Alumni Magazine
The city of Waukegan, along the shores of Lake Michigan north of Chicago, has seen its share of violent of crime. But the 2002 gang-ordered execution-style murders of 16-year-olds David Mackins and Jarreau Patterson, found stuffed in a car trunk in Zion, Ill., threatened to turn Waukegan's smoldering gang conflicts into a full-scale war.
The community at large, however, had seen enough. John Caples, pastor of Jesus Name Apostolic Church, reached out to U.S. Senator Mark Kirk (R-IL), then a Representative in the 10th Congressional District, and the two partnered to launch the Family First Center, whose mission is to strengthen community by placing emphasis on rebuilding the family, repairing division, and developing strategies to empower change. From day one, the center has been managed by 54-year-old NLU alumna Evelyn Chenier, Ph.D. Community Psychology '03.
"[Our clients] feel like we are family, and they call us the caretakers of Lake County," Evelyn said. "Although we have rules and regulations, we don't quit until we find an answer, and we service with a heart."
The center focuses on converting entire lifestyles; for younger clients, the goal is to remove them from the streets, steer them towards a GED, enrolling in college or job training, and eventually obtaining a job. The Smarties program, working with children ages 8-13, provides after-school enrichment in critical thinking, arts and crafts, drama, math and reading.
For the many adult clients, the focus is often on personal health. The center offers a free gym and a community health workers program targeting individuals with high blood pressure, diabetes and obesity. The center also provides rental, utility and food assistance, not as handouts but as tools to push individuals and families towards the path of self-empowerment.
"We have a young man right now who is destined to become a gang member if he is not caught up and turned around," Evelyn said of a 13-year old client who carries a gun and has had several close scrapes with the law. "We have given him a mentor, and we believe this young man is on the right track to turn his life around."
