The knowledge revolution
Jerry Ash follows the evolution of knowledge management, from the tail-end of the industrial revolution all the way up to the knowledge revolution that is already underway.
Knowledge management leaders and practitioners are always hungry for case-based reports because the field is young; there are no fool-proof cookbooks or guaranteed maxims, though common practices are emerging. Case reports can hardly be called best practices, but they are helpful known practices full of ideas and outcomes that may provide starting points for the next generation. Knowledge management (KM) is still emerging; the next generation is as close as the next conversation or experiment.
For the past five years the Association of Knowledgework (AOK) has been hosting a monthly STAR Series Dialogue moderated by some 60 international thought leaders and practitioners, with hundreds of other consultants, researchers and learners engaging in the discussions.
Conversations have taken place by e-mail on a Yahoo! list serve, producing an archive containing millions of words and countless insights into the continuing evolution of KM.
This report compresses a couple of years worth of those conversation into just 2,000 words. If you have been looking for one document that sums-up knowledge management in a nutshell, this may be it.
Managing knowledge is not simply the latest management fad. It is a shift in the value of knowledge due to fundamental changes in technological, political, social, economic, business and work environments, brought about by the passing of the industrial age and the arrival of a knowledge economy.
In the industrial age people were not paid for what they knew, but what they did and their employer told them how to do it. Management strategy was to turn raw materials into finished products ever more efficiently and effectively. People were liabilities expensive tools that represented the largest cost of doing business. Not-for-profit ventures followed the for-profit model because there was no other.
Managers who still follow the old rules and attitudes of assembly-line manufacturing, however, will find themselves clinging to outdated strategies, either because they are still in the manufacturing mode or they believe they can use the assembly-line process to leverage a less tangible but more plentiful resource human knowledge.
Peter Drucker coined the term knowledge worker nearly 50 years ago and by the 1980s and 1990s, the world began to realise that open and global electronic communication was causing a sea-change in social, political and economic order. In 1995, Ikujiro Nonaka and Hirotaka Takeuchi published The Knowledge Creating Company and, for the first time, Michael Polanyis distinction between the tacit (or intangible) and the explicit (or documentable) was introduced into common business language.
Consultants and software vendors were suddenly competing with each other to capture the hearts and minds of the early adopters of knowledge strategies. Industrial era executives and managers were more apt to buy into the apparent explicitness of process than the squishiness of people. After all, they had already invested heavily in information technology with disappointing results. Perhaps, they thought, a little investment in this new knowledge management software might of an organisation lies between the ears of its employees, not in the computers or the company safe.
Today there is no such thing as a non-knowledge worker and, together, knowledge workers are the new shop floor of every organisation. Knowledge workers are everywhere. They are not only inside the organisation, but also outside: suppliers, allies, partners, customers and even competitors.
It is the practise of people what they actually do that brings the business process to life and breathes life into the process. We all know there is a big difference in what people are supposed to do in their jobs as compared to what they actually do. That difference has always existed.
People at work have covertly used short cuts, informal communications, bootleg files and a whole host of guerrilla tactics to help them work better regardless of official protocol. The new order of the knowledge age will encourage them to get out of this stealth mode and into covert initiatives. Savvy managers have begun to think of these knowledge resources not just in terms of intellectual capital, but also in terms of social capital, because those resources represent a complex mix of knowledge and production thinkers and do-ers.
In short, people are no longer personnel. They are the company. That is an unsettling message for managers stuck in the industrial age. And those managers continue to inhibit the full transition to knowledge-based enterprise, relying on narrowly defined job descriptions, vertical organisational charts that resemble human assembly lines, clearly documented procedures and guidelines all leaving little space, if any, for individual creativity or cross-functional collaboration.
Reluctant managers talk among themselves about the new value of people and the imperatives of knowledge sharing and individual initiatives. But their employees are the last to know about the new order and their place in it. Those who are finally informed do not understand it because it is so foreign to their everyday experience.
Many are intimidated by hierarchical structure and cope by adopting a stick to the knitting code. Many are fearful they will be ridiculed or ignored, or that others will take the credit. After all, they are in competition with each other, hoarding their knowledge to climb the corporate ladder or protect themselves in a downsizing.
The knowledge is power myth (which has not protected knowledge-holders during recurrent cycles of downsizing) may have worked in the industrial era when knowledge took years to become obsolete and hoarding knowledge therefore provided leverage for those who built their own domains. Today, however, the shelf life of knowledge is much shorter.
The new model of power is a cycle of learning quickly, sharing what has been learnt while it is still valid, unlearning what no longer works and then re-learning. The current set of behaviours is based on power as a function of understanding, facilitating information and knowledge flow.
Meanwhile, many business leaders feel threatened by the untidy and cross-cutting nature of bottom-up initiatives that could undermine their control. Those who are hostile to the notion of distributed empowerment may never see the true value of the new perspective.
Some are in denial, rejecting the knowledge phenomenon as just another fad. Others delay and avoid acceptance by operating with a traditional lens that resists change. They seek justification, analysis of competition, best practise examples, business case examples based on traditional return on investment criteria and so on, to avoid action rather than having to plunge headlong into the uncharted, fluid imperatives of the new order.
Two domains grapple for primacy in the modern workplace. One, the domain of power and hierarchy, which is secured by decision making and control; the second, the domain of knowledge and expertise, the foundation of creativity and innovation. The first domain is ruled by Whoevers calling the shots. The second is ruled by Whos got the smarts.
The person calling the shots can take measures to enable or disable the person with the smarts. Disablement was too often the tactic of choice in the industrial age. In the 20th century, the emphasis was on trying to arrange and re-arrange things so the person who called the shots could get better control of the one with the smarts. This game has been one of diminishing returns.
All economic sectors are going through major and rapid transformations. Economic success in this fast-paced environment requires considerable agility and adaptability which are hampered by the snails pace of a directive and decision-making system based on a chain of command.
Communities of practice (CoPs) are moving centre stage as the place where raw knowledge combines and combusts to gain and maintain competitive advantage. CoPs are environments of empowerment, high trust, knowledge sharing, collaboration, creative thought, initiative and accomplishment. They are not the same, however, as teams appointed by management to carry out specific tasks. At the same time, some see CoPs as a formal part of the hierarchy, receiving requests from management to produce agreed-upon outcomes.
There lies strong controversy over whether CoPs perform work, some believing CoPs are spontaneous gatherings of like-minded people where the freedom to think and share is undisturbed by the push of management. This controversy is thoughtful disagreement about a concept that is still in the formative stage. There are many different types of communities at work in an organisation communities of interest, of learning, of purpose.
CoPs, some say, are very special kinds of communities where the focus is on practise the ways and means of accomplishing a work function, how we do our jobs. At this type of community, the core is a collaborative effort to learn and improve practise based not on protocols, but on the way people actually do (or think they should do) their work. Sometimes existing communities become CoPs when they are utilised for some purpose. Other CoPs form where organisations seed them and provide functional support.
Finding a balance between freedom and purpose is a key issue that must be resolved before any organisation can effectively nurture CoPs. That balance can best be achieved when organisations encourage and support communities of practise outside the hierarchical structure, while integrating them into the organisational strategy. Achieving such a balance calls for major culture change among executives, middle managers, supervisors and employees.
Knowledge management and learning are converging. In the knowledge-driven environment, employees are expected to learn while they work. CoPs are places where people learn from each other in the course of knowledge sharing. When employees are totally engaged in knowledge work, training and development appear to be as old fashioned as command and control.
In the new perspective, training and development is done to people; learning is done by people. Too often, organisations take big people and put them in little boxes, held apart by steel girders, then give them a half-written script and expect them to play a role. And, the minute they start to be themselves, their scripts are stuffed in their faces with the demand they get on with their prescribed duties.
The organisation that genuinely re-organises its philosophy to build an environment of initiative and collaboration will find a change in employee culture occurring rapidly because learning and sharing is in the DNA.
The common misconception has too often been that employees have limited or narrow capabilities, are untrustworthy or even disloyal. And yet, no ones goal in life is to do a mediocre job at a company he or she hates. In fact, most people want to do a terrific job on meaningful projects at a company they care about and with people they like.
This is the potential power behind empowerment and trust. We want to some of us even need to trust and have the freedom to act both independently and collaboratively.
In the right environment, enterprise is as natural as breathing. People do it to survive and succeed, individually and collectively. In the perfect next-generation model, managers are valued not because they are in control or because they know more than their staff, but because they can quickly communicate the things they do know and get staff members to do the same with each other. Leaders build environments of trust and mutual respect where creative contribution is nurtured and employees at all levels understand that being successful in this networked world increasingly requires collaboration; up, down and all around.
A true knowledge-intensive organisation is comprised of self-motivating, empowered workers who know their knowledge is important to the performance of their organisations. Such a change in culture has developed significantly in recent years. It has changed the way staff work, share, learn, and respond to clients needs. It has increased productivity and created communities within organisations; it has fostered a culture where staff is eager to share knowledge and wisdom.
These are the evolving realities of the next generation of KM. Although they could not yet be considered rules, they are lessons repeated often enough over at least the last 20 years to merit constant attention and action by todays business leaders. The change taking place in the enterprise today is not simply a fad promoted by vendors, but a quiet revolution fueled by a biological shift in social, political and economic order that is fait accompli.
This summary of findings is based on an indispensable new report, Next Generation Knowledge Management, which details the thoughts of 59 of KMs biggest names and pioneering practitioners, including Stephen Denning, Leif Edvinsson, Karl-Erik Sveiby, David Snowden, Hubert Saint-Onge, Carl Frappaolo, Debra Amidon, Ash Sooknanan, Richard Cross and Carol Kinsey Goman.

More Thumbnails
March 17th, 2009
We made what we call the "thumbnail navigation system" at the top of the site wider so that it fills out the entire new site's width. You would be surprised on how difficult a job it turned out to be, but it was worth the time investment.
We would like to make the site's green background white instead (to make things easier on the eyes), but it will take an estimated 24 hours to do. The site is usually pretty easy to develop and design around, but in this case not so much. So this project may take a back seat for now.
We are hoping to have an official launch party sometime this summer, so if you would like to attend just become a fan of ours on Facebook and tell us that you're in.

Speed Script Adds Switching Partners, Enhances 340B Software | | Print | |
Ron Davis, president of Speed Script , has announced that his company has formed partnerships with eRx Network and PPOk/Rx Linc, increasing the third-party claims-switching options for its users. With eRx Networks emphasis on innovation and web-based tools, I think our business philosophies complement each other, says Davis. eRx Network maintains data centers in Chicago and Fort Worth with automatic failover and load-balancing capabilities. Should any problem occur, each facility is capable of handling 100% of the transactions, he says. PPOk/Rx Linc is a private network owned by community pharmacists. Lonny Wilson, CEO of the company, sees the interoperability of the two systems as a way to increase services offerings to Speed Script users. These include third-party contract management, contract compliance monitoring, real-time MAC pricing evaluations, pre- and postediting, electronic reconciliation, and access to the SureScripts electronic prescribing gateway. For pharmacies servicing 340B programs, according to Davis, Speed Script allows pharmacies to fill 340B prescriptions without having to enter a drugs NDC number twice, or having to enter the drug with a pseudo NDC. Davis likes the new virtual inventory feature that has been added. Virtual means that the pharmacy uses its own stock for both retail and 340B prescriptions; however, there is still the option to maintain separate inventories, he says. |

The shutout victory was the first of the season for the middle school team. The win helped the Yellow Jackets improve to 5-1 on the season.
Rockmart is scheduled to play Rome on Tuesday, March 12 at 5 p.m. at Riverview Park in Rome.
Rockmart will end the regular season on Friday, March 15 at 7 p.m. against Darlington at North Floyd Field No. 3 in Rome.
So far this season, the young Yellow Jackets have defeated St. Mary's 22-5 on Feb. 21, Rome 11-1 on Feb. 25, Pepperell 9-1 on Feb. 27 and Armuchee 10-5 on Feb. 28.
After the one and one start to the month of March, Rockmart now has a 5-1 overall record in the Rome-Floyd Parks Recreation Authority middle school varsity baseball league.

the difference between the 2 sides will be abour 8 points, 22-14 to the mightly raiders.You could be right of course, but I am genuinely interested to hear what you think will make the difference between the two sides, and what will affect the changes required.
i think holty will realise that there has been little creativity in the half backs so far, i think and hope that finchy gets a go at stand off, he's a trier.
the return of haggerty in second row will be huge boost, the lad is class. To be fair, barrows back row is one of the strongest in the league.

Is there any credit card/debit/any type of plastic out there with perks geared towards very specific purchases in a paleo lifestyle?

Yes, I realize credit cards are evil and all that.

Lost Letterman, a college football fan site, has compiled a list of the 10 most-hated coaches in college football, and Pac-12 coaches make up a solid 30 percent of the list.
The list is based on "the combined opinions of the fans, the media and the coaching community," so it's not exactly a scientific survey.
Then again, measuring hate isn't exactly a scientific endeavor.

what is crasher wake doing in bw2 in route 18 ?
Crasher Wake appears in HeartGold and SoulSilver as well. He's just there to give you a couple items and say something cheesy.
He is MAD, yup, M-A-D. Like alder the daredevil, jumping of cliffs just to say some crap on "Destiny" (and almost dying every time.)
In HeartGold and SoulSilver, he appears in the Celadon Department Store to give the player some Sinnoh starter accessories. He can be found again later, on Route 47. In Black 2 and White 2, he appears on Route 18 staring out into the ocean. Once the player talks to him, he decides to head to Driftveil City and takes his leave.
He also SOMETIMES gives items too...

Of course you must visit Beale Steet. Hope you have a wonderful time. Good luck with your job interview.
...I have a job interview at the university of Tennessee, so I will be there for 4 days, after that I'll be in Dallas for 2 weeks, for another couple of interviews and to visit my family- I'm more excited about going to Memphis than seeing my family!!!
...obviously I will be visiting Graceland and Sun Studios, where else should I go?

and peace its paths adorn...
ive been to memphis once in 2002,i dont no were you are stopping in memphis ,i stopped in the ramadan,next to beale street.i asked the woman at the reception how to get to graceland,she said she didnt know so i got a normal buss.i knew there was a free buss going to all the elvis sights but i coudnt wait so i got the normal one.my advice is to wait for the sun studios buss to come,its all free and the driver says to you over the next 100 yards you will be seeing graceland on youre left hand side.when i was on the normal buss i didnt experience this( i wish i had )
There are so many things to do in Memphis so get ready for an awesome trip. Ive been to many places in the U.S. but Memphis is one of my favorites. There is just something about that city that is awesome, its hard to explain, but you'll see what Im talking about. A cool place I went to was B.B. King's Blues Club. I hope you have a fun, safe trip. Let us know how it goes.
On the hills of Georgia
Across the plains of Tennessee

just had a thought- what is the weather like in November???? I imagine it's tropical compared to the UK mind you!
Hi Mez,
The average temperature for November in Memphis are from 68 F to 57 F. Or 20 C to 14 C
I dream a world where man no other man
will scorn. Where LOVE will bless the earth
and peace its paths adorn...
HI. I'm from Memphis and went to college there and some of my favorite places (besides Beale Street and Graceland) are:
Pink Palace Museum
Mud Island (especially the museum there)
Overton Park and the Botanical Gardens (might not be great in Nov. though)
Rendesvous (great Ribs wet or dry, voted best in Memphis while I was there)
Take a river ride on the Memphis Belle and have dinner .
The Peabody Hotel (great restaurant called Dux) also call ahead and see when they bring the ducks down, it's pretty cool. You can also get a horse and carriage ride that takes you through downtown if it's not too cold.
The Smithsonian Rock and Roll Museum. They have a great section on Elvis there. And you never know who might be performing. I met Howling Wolf's son there.
If the weather is nice and you're on Beale go to Handy Park. Local blues musicians sometimes play out there. It's pretty cool.
LibertyLand (if it's still there) Elvis loved this park. He would ride the "zippin Pippin" over and over. I think there is a sign there stating that.
See anything at the Orpheum. It is a grand old theater and beautiful.
The Cotton Exchange Building. Really beautiful and old. Used in the movie "The Firm"
Drive down Central AVe. You'll come to a stretch with giant oak trees and southern Mansions and old churches. It's an amazing stretch of old Memphis homes.
Probably more but I can't think of any. Memphis State University used to have a great Egyptian exhibit with mummies and great artifacts.
Hope this helps!
Got my family, my kids, my books and my music, I'm good, yeah, I'm good.....

Gordon County Schools Announces Changes for 2013-14 At its May meeting, the Gordon County Board of Education approved several recommendations that will bring change to much of the district. At the District Office: Mr. Mike Evelti, current Assistant Principal at Sonoraville Middle School, was named Student Services Director for the school district, replacing the position that will be vacated by Mr. Jeff Clance, who was recently named Director of Human Resources for the 2013-14 school year. Mr. Evelti holds undergraduate and graduate degrees in Education from the University of Vermont and an Educational Specialist degree from Lincoln Memorial University in the area of Educational Administration. Mr. Evelti came to Gordon County Schools from industry in 2004, serving as a science teacher before being named Assistant Principal in 2011. Mr. Evelti indicated his enthusiasm about being able to continue to make a difference in the lives of students in his new capacity. "I hope to continue to serve the students of Gordon County Schools as the Director of Student Services and to make a positive impact on their lives." Red Bud Middle School Principal: The new Red Bud Middle School, nearing its completion, will be led by Mrs. Jennifer Hayes, current Red Bud Elementary Principal. Mrs. Hayes, a Gordon County native, began her career with Gordon County Schools as a middle school teacher at Ashworth Middle School, where she taught for six years before going to Red Bud Elementary as a reading teacher in 2001. In 2005, Mrs. Hayes was named Assistant Principal at Red Bud Elementary, serving in that capacity for five years before being named Principal. "I am very excited and honored to have the opportunity to be a part of the growth of the Red Bud community. Being the Principal of Red Bud Middle School will be a wonderful experience that will enable me to continue to foster relationships with stakeholders, as well as cultivate new relationships. The aspiration of the school will be to develop students who are prepared to be engaged, responsible learners. At Red Bud Elementary School, our students are taught to Reach Beyond Expectations in all that they do. We hope to continue this tradition at Red Bud Middle School where we plan to continue to teach students to Reach Beyond Expectations, while Motivating them to Succeed. " Sonoraville High School Feeder Program Restructuring:
Other New Principals: Replacing Mrs. Hayes as Principal at Red Bud Elementary will be Mrs. Katie Vaughan, Assistant Principal at Ashworth Middle School. Mrs. Vaughan began her career as an elementary teacher and served as a Literacy Coach at Tolbert Elementary before moving to her current position at Ashworth Middle School five years ago. She holds undergraduate and graduate degrees from Berry College in Early Childhood Education, as well as an Educational Specialist in Educational Administration from Lincoln Memorial University. "I love being a part of Gordon County Schools, and I feel privileged to work in such an outstanding school system. I am very excited to become a member of Red Bud Elementary School to help continue their reputation of excellence." Mr. Chad Moore was named Principal at Belwood Elementary School, replacing Doug Clark who will move to Gordon Central High School in 2013-14. Mr. Moore currently serves as Assistant Principal at Sonoraville Elementary School, following a teaching career that began at Ashworth Middle School in 2004. Mr. Moore holds an undergraduate degree from Shorter College, a Master of Education degree from Kennesaw State, an Educational Specialist degree from Berry College, and is currently pursuing an Educational Doctorate in Leadership from Liberty University. "I am honored to be the next principal at Belwood Elementary School. Belwood has a strong tradition of excellence and student achievement, and I'm blessed to have the opportunity to build upon that tradition. As principal I will work to build strong relationships with all stakeholders, maintain a high expectation of teaching and learning, and provide the support that teachers and students need to be successful. We have a great responsibility to the students and families of Belwood to prepare them for success in an increasingly challenging and global society. There is a great team of teachers and support staff there, and I'm extremely grateful and excited about the opportunity to lead them. I can't wait to get started." Dr. Susan Remillard, Superintendent of Gordon County Schools, commented on the changes that will be occurring in the district beginning on July 1. "It is all about doing what is best for our students, and the restructuring of the feeder pattern for Sonoraville High School will allow us to increase security in our facilities and provide a smaller, more nurturing environment in these schools. It will also allow us the opportunity to be innovative in our instructional strategies and enhance the opportunities we provide to our students." When asked about the changes in school leadership, Remillard commented, "We have strong leaders in our district, and I am excited that we are able to promote those who have worked hard to make a difference in the lives of Gordon County students. I have every confidence that those we've named will continue to increase the level of excellence our schools have obtained over the past several years." |
Gordon County PreK Registration has been extended for the following Elementary Schools: BELWOOD, RED BUD, SWAIN, TOLBERT Please ask for a PreK Packet at the school site. |

Hey everyone!
Today we're going to meet up for the language exchange again. Last week we decided to change the place and now we're meeting up in "Route 66", which is near the old place "The Globe" on c/ Labradores, also near the cathedral. We'll meet up at 21h00 and normally stay until midnight or so. The place is quieter than "The Globe", but the drinks are still pretty cheap. And you can speak to the barman in English, Spanish or Russian! :D

Really? All that video tells me is "fetch quest".
Really? All that video tells me is "fetch quest".
The implications of a fetch quest, to me, are orders of magnitude more appealing than Uncharted's narrow corridor linearity.
I liked that "collect stuff for a vehicle" part when it was called Dead Rising 2: Case Zero.
Me too! Honestly, that's probably one of the best things to channel when making a zombie game., IMO. Throwing that into a realistic world (not filled with rich wives, insane shop owners, and a doomed bachelorette party) can completely change/improve the atmosphere and experience.
I love Uncharted to death, but the change of pace is nice. I doubt it's going to be super expansive, though, because the graphics make that hard. But I'm really excited; their last four games (Jak 3) have all been tits. The play they showed at E3 looked fantastic.
Ellie was hilarious in that trailer.
Can't think of a reason not to be ultra excited for this.
This will be amazing. I love naughty dog (Jak and Daxter franchise and Uncharted franchise). They can do no wrong.
There will be a new trailer at the VGAs tomorrow. One year after its launch trailer, I think its about time they gave us a release date, or at least a release window. Hopefully some more gameplay is shown too
Did they show any of the fungi zombies in the new trailer? I know they keep saying they're not the focus of the game but I'd still like to see some gameplay with them.
Less than 5 months and this game will be out and in my hands.
There's now a deep consideration for getting a PS3 for this game. Hell, they're cheap now and I could catch up on the games I missed out on sticking with the 360 this generation.
Do it (if you can). They're cheap, play blurays, play online free, and have exclusives other than Halo, GoW, and Forza.
As far as I'm concerned it's the game I waiting the most for! Best 3D graphics ever seen to date.
Just saw the new trailer. Showed a lot of the fungal zombies which makes me happy. I know a lot of people are like "They're not zombies!" but fuck you they're fucking zombies just like how the Infected in 28 Days Later were also pretty much zombies.
Wonder what the multiplayer will be like? Kind of hoping for something like what Operation Raccoon City tried and failed to do with a Hero's vs. Villains thing with fungi zombies as a dynamic environmental hazard.
Man I need to go back and play some UC3 multiplayer.
Yeah definitely zombies, and I'm glad for that.

Lift Kits
Trucks and SUVs have been perennially popular buys on the market, and for many drivers, the height advantage they provide is a big factor behind that initial purchase. Not everyone has the luxury of owning such vehicles however, and for those people who drive lower sitting vehicles, lift kits are a way to change the car's ride height.
Aftermarket lift kits operate in one of two ways; either they raise the body profile of the car, or the suspension itself. By raising the vehicle higher off the road surface, the wheel wells of the car also have more breathing room, allowing drivers to install larger custom rims on their vehicles as well. So not only do drivers get a taller car, but they also are able to customize another feature of their vehicle.

Pinellas County Public Safety Services and Sunstar Commemorate Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Drivers out on Pinellas County roadways might see something different when they look to see where the ambulance siren is coming from – Sunstar ambulance No. 52 in a pink and white color scheme. This new paint job is to draw attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Earlier this morning, nearly 50 employees of Pinellas County Public Safety Services and Sunstar gathered for a group photo in front of the ambulance to show their support for this important public health issue and cause.
Nearly one in eight women in the United States will develop breast cancer during their lifetimes, with nearly 40,000 succumbing to the disease last year. This number is down considerably from the early 1990s due to improved detection and treatment methods, but it is still far too high.

great decisions! the 7850 offers the 2gb and has an overall stronger performance then the 560 TI (its stronger then the 570) and the 2 gb will offer a big advantage if you are planning to go triple monitors any time soon.
regarding the triple monitor, a 7850 is a strong card and it has eyefinity support(up to 4 monitors) but it isnt strong enough to pull ultra details on a triple 1080P screens, so if you are planning to get it then go for a crossfire compatible board and add an extra 7850 when you buy the extra screens or play on lower details .
about the mouse, i already bought the Roccat Kone. its a fantastic mouse, very similar to the deathadder in its size (i got big hands) but it has no fancy lights and it has on the fly dpi adjuster. so overall it was the better choice for me

A Respected Life
When Bella is left she is found by 4 red eyes! Who can they be? Is Bella in danger? Will Edward ever come back? Here's a little sneek peek. The ruby red eyes glared at me in a way that was not murderous but gentle and understanding. Although I was frightened I was also seeing trust in his eyes that made me unafraid.
"Don't worry," he said in calm, soothing voice. "I'm not going to hurt you." And as scary as he was, I could trust him. As I tried to sit up a wave of pain came to me. I was completely unable to move, which had worried me a lot.
First story so the summary and story may not be as good as everyone else's. But I THINK(Key Word) it will be good. Maybe people love it? Hate it? Well anyways... Give it a try.

1. Dangers of Being Desserted
Rating 5/5 Word Count 656 Review this Chapter
Hearing those words from the love of my life left my heart shattered. I just couldn't believe it. The only thing I could do is repeat the words over and over again.
"I don't want you anymore, Bella". He said in a velvet voice with no emotion.
I was crying so much that I was going into an early sleep. I must have fallen asleep because all I remember was dreaming about a man in the woods. I tried to think about it and play it back in my head.
The ruby red eyes glared at me in a way that was not murderous but gentle and understanding. Although I was frightened I was also seeing trust in his eyes that made me unafraid.
"Don't worry," he said in calm, soothing voice. "I'm not going to hurt you." And as scary as he was, I could trust him. As I tried to sit up a wave of pain came to me. I was completely unable to move, which had worried me a lot.
"I wouldn't move if I were you," another voice said, a girl. "When you went to from the forest you fell down a cliff. You must have wondered off from the wood shortly after you hit your head on a roc wandering back to your house." She said in the sweetest voice. But there was also a hint of apology in it too.
"Who are you?" I asked, my voice shaking. Not from fear but from agonizing pain.
"I'm terribly sorry," He apologized. "My name is Felix and this is Jane" he said pointing to himself and the girl.
"Do you know who the Volturi are?" He asked.
"I've heard of them." I said in a calm voice.
"Well what have you heard?"
I've heard they're an old ruling family of the vampire world." I said and then Jana and Felix switched looks.
"Well that's more than we thought you would know but who told you?" Jane asked.
"Edward Cullen told me all about it, but I don't remember a lot." I said kind of feeling a little faint now. I winced at the name Edward and Cullen. The scene was fresh in my head. I don't want you anymore Bella.
"Cullen. Why does that name sound so familiar?" Felix asked to himself. Jane shrugged.
"Well, Carlisle Cullen is the "dad" if that helps." I said still unsure about what was going on. I felt as if I were falling into a deep sleep and never wake up.
"Ah, Carlisle, Aro's old friend." Jane realized.
Jane tapped her watch at Felix. He nodded and turned his head to me.
"Well, we have to go, but our master is very interested in you." I looked at him in confusion.
"Would you like to come with us to meet our master?" I nodded my sour head and the next thing I know we were running through the forest and into a crimson red Mustang. Felix laid me down gently into the car. I could see all the blood pouring out of me.
"How can you handle blood so easily?" I asked. Obviously vampires would be crazy by now.
"Oh, well we have been around for a long time so I have become used to these situations." Jane said.
And with that I drifted off to a deep, dreamless sleep.
I woke up in a castle like room. Rocky walls and floors with a queen sized bed. Beautiful red drapes and comforter for the bed. Suddenly I heard a whooshing sound and a pasty, paper like vampire was standing over me as well as another vampire. They were both black haired. Crimson red eyes and ivory coloured skin.
"Hello, Bella." The papery man with longer black hair said. Obviously seeing my confusion he told me his name.
"My name is Aro and this is Demetri." He said pointing the other man, Demetri.
Demetri looked at me in a sweet way that looked like he was admiring me.

The Mount Airy Board of Education meeting opened up with the official swearing in of three returning members and new member Amy Bledsoe on Tuesday night.
Judge A. Moses Massey performed the swearing in ceremony of new board member Amy Bledsoe and returning members Tim Matthews, Kate Appler and Wendy Carriker. Carriker was re-elected board chairwoman and Matthews also was re-elected to the post of vice chairman for the group. A reception was held to honor the members.
MCO Leadership Associates facilitators Dawn Wooten and Melody Clodfelter presented the board with a revised action plan of the school system's community-based strategic planning initiative. The board approved of the revisions and the plan will next go back to the steering committee. That group is scheduled to meet in January to formulate specific ways to achieve the goals through individual school improvement plans.
According to Mount Airy City Schools Superintendent Dr. Gregory Little, a roll out of the strategic plan is set for Feb. 19 with the school improvement plans out by March 5. Wooten said the two projects are proceeding in tandem in the hopes both can be completed shortly before the board begins its new budget process.
The drafts of the action plans include specific, one-year goals for the first year and overall goals which represent a two or three year or longer range goal. For instance, one priority focus area is high academic achievement and growth for all students. The short term could be by June 2014 the percentage of students demonstrating a year's growth for a year's instruction would increase seven percent compared to baseline scores from 2012-2013.
A combination of assessments including end-of-grade tests and formative assessment results would be used to measure student progress. Another focus area in the proposed strategic plan is for high quality employees. A specific goal for this area would be to have the percentage of certified employees achieving an overall rating of "accomplished" on annual evaluations to increase by five percent over 2012-2013.
Recognitions also were featured during the meeting. Teachers Phillip Lewis, Dawn Wilson, Melissa Martin, Pamela Mitchell, Cindy Wilson, Melissa Phillips and Abby Gallimore were honored for receiving Zack Smith Fund Advisory Committee of the Winston-Salem Foundation grants. Mount Airy High School Principal Sandy George was honored for receiving her doctorate in education from Appalachian State University.
Woody Jordan accepted honors for the Emmanuel Sunday school class at First Baptist Church for providing 315 Thanksgiving meals to local families. Spencer's DBA Rock Ararat Products Company was recognized for donating $630 to the Hungry Bears Backpack Program.
Mount Airy High School HOSA students were honored for their performance in the District 7 competition. More than 300 students from 15 different high schools participated in the event.
Rachel Evans was first in extemporaneous speaking, Tre'von Debnam also finished first in the researched persuasive speaking competition and Emily Pfitzner was first in medical photography. Second place finishes went to Garret VanHoy in medical math and Ryan Worth for extemporaneous speaking.
Kristin Collins was third in sports medicine, Jordan Penn was third for extemporaneous health poster, Sarah Smith finished third in extemporaneous writing, Brooke Moore was third in job seeking skills and Megan Hardy took third in Courtesy Corp. Sara Hale was fourth in medical photography.
In team competition, Kaicee Snow, Andrew Jones, Dalton Mayes and Landon Mumford took second in creative problem solving. Jessica Spencer, Chelsea Michelle Carter, Emily Hiatt and Blake Bond placed third in the HOSA Bowl and Taylor Davis, Makayla Benfield, Mindy Benfield and Catherine Scott were fourth in bowl competition. Kaitlin Draughn and Cheyenne McHone were fourth in the career health display.
Little said the top four in categories are eligible to represent the district in state competition in the spring.
