WiredAcademic: Idit Harel Caperton Guest Opinion Post is Calling for Integrating Instructionism and Constructionism in "Flipped Classrooms"
In her recent Opinion Post on WiredAcademic, Dr. Idit Harel Caperton makes a case for schools and technology/content providers to couple "Instructionism" and "Constructionism" to create more effective "flipped classrooms." Dr. Caperton argues that the instructor-led, tutorial model of education must be integrated with a project-based, learn-by-doing model in order to deeply engage and encourage students to learn how to learn and become architects of their own cognition and education.
Edutopia: Idit Harel Caperton Guest Blog on "Flipping Classrooms"
In her guest blog post on Edutopia, Dr. Idit Harel Caperton challenges entrepreneurs and educators to think more creatively about the opportunities technology offers to affect meaningful change in classrooms. Online learning has been heralded as transformative, but the learning models currently employed leave students with untapped potential for driving their own learning. Idit argues that the change must come from a flipped-classroom model that combines "Instructionism with Constructionism" by encouraging students to learn-by-doing to truly transform the instructor-led, tutoring-system model.

Glass Bridge Displays
Glass Bridge Displays offer the largest display in the smallest housing. Minimizing overall dimensions which enables multiple displays to be mounted and maximizing available space.
The TFT LCD's used in the Glass Bridge Series range from 12.1" through to 21.3" in either Daylight or Sunlight readable variants.
Each display is fitted with interface circuits that allow it to be connected with up to ten (10) inputs ranging from standard PC graphics cards, S-Video, Component & Composite Video sources. The display can accept signals of lower resolution, such as VGA. These signals are scaled so that they are displayed full screen.
Along with conventional LCD brightness and contrast controls, the display has an advanced dynamic brightness dimming technique, permitting full brightness to "Dim to Red" selectable at any brightness which is typically employed during night-time operation at low backlight levels.
A unique but simple remote On Screen Display (OSD) user interface known as the GB Commander allows the user to adjust a wide variety of display parameters if necessary. Once the parameters are set they are stored in non-volatile EEPROM. This ensures that the set-up is retained after power is switched off. Furthermore, simultaneous control of backlight brightness for up to ten (10) Glass Bridge Displays can be achieved via one (1) GB Commander. This is accomplished by connecting up to ten (10) USB cables from the displays into one (1) PC. The Nauticomp Multi-Dim software to link these is available upon request. All Displays are designed for operation from an external regulated 12.4V DC supply. Nauticomp offers a wide range of external power supplies to match the power consumption requirements of individual applications – 12V DC, 24V DC & 110/230V AC. Each Glass Bridge Display is shipped with a 3 Year Limited Warranty 100% parts and labour.

England defence coach Andy Farrell feels his side must show plenty of resolve if they are to beat the Springboks at Twickenham on Saturday.
Farrell wants England's to invoke the spirit of Port Elizabeth where they met the Boks' physical onslaught head-on and managed a creditable 14-14 draw in the third Test of the three match series in June.
That result meant that England managed to avoid a 3-0 whitewash, and Farrell expects them to put in a similar showing on their home turf on Saturday.
"We've got to remind the team of Port Elizabeth," he said.
"In that game we took our defensive game to them and that is how it has got to be this weekend.
"There was a fighting spirit in that game. It shone out massively, you could see our intent to not let South Africa do what they do best, which is batter the gain-line door down. We did it well that day.
"The South Africans were pretty annoyed to draw that game.
"They realised we were good that day, we got among them and got stuck in and I'm sure they will pick a team to combat that.
"South Africa have a way of playing, they don't change much and they have some big boys.
"But they will have a few intricacies. You have to expect the unexpected."

Sorry, but this a horrible, horrible program. The trade in they give you for a MacBook pro is pathetic. I can sell a 4 year old MacBook Pro on CL for $700-800. I don't know why people bother with trade ins. Trade ins usually suck.
Aaron M says:
Well it might not be good for MBP. But I'm interested in the $100 for "any" notebook. I have an incredibly old Dell laptop that I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy. It can still run, but I can't imagine anyone would buy it. Heck, shipping the 10 pounder would probably eat up any profit I could make from selling it on Ebay. Thing is the battery, and CMOS, stopped working a long time ago and one of the keys is missing.
spaulagain says:
I'm in the same boat. I have an 8+ year old Dell Inspiron running Windows 7 currently. It still works, and was top of the line when it was new. But its worthless for any modern day computing. This is an interesting opportunity...

Gonna sale my hp dv6. 300 isn't bad at all.
mondokjm says:
I can't part with my dv6 for $300. I'm not so sure having it for a year is worth the $800 depreciation.

You'll have better luck if you sell it. ;)
alaskanjackson says:
Just checked Staples on-line ( my only purchase option). The 64 and 128 are both listed as sold out. Early this a.m they were both available? Ugh. Would love to ditch my hp tablet that I don't use.
ninjaap says:
Would be great if I could trade in multiple laptops, which there doesn't seem to be an option for. I have an old HP netbook and a 5+ yr old Compaq 15" I'd be happy to trade in for a Surface.
CJ Thunder says:
Ditto. I'm going on the hunt for this info.
mikecel79 says:
I emailed them about it this morning. Only 1 trade-in allowed per purchase. You can trade in up to 5 devices but you have to purchase 5 touch screen laptops then.

text: Kyoshiro looked up at the shining sun as Quatro Cerberus joined the other guilds walking through the streets of Harlen. He signed in content, it was his first time participating in the grand magic games. All the other times, he'd been away on missions that took extended periods of time to complete. In fact he'd barely gotten back from a monster subjugation mission. But here he was with his fellow guildsman. Taking in the other guilds, he sensed strong magical power resonating from them, this promised to be an interesting and entertaining competition. Kyoshiro noted that Quatro Cerberus didnt appear to arouse the same excitement from the crowd in the same way the others did. But off to the side he could see a small group of children jumping up and town, cheering while holding a sewn together sign " GO FOR IT QUATRO CERBERUS " he couldnt help but smile and wave in there direction. " It appears we do have some fans in the crowd " he mused, he noticed that a representive of the games had approached them, walking just to the side of the group and informing them to head for Harlen park for refreshments and the chance to mingle with the other guilds and their future opponents.

If / when ultra marathon gets that type of recognition with a top notch branding campaign, I bet there'll be thousands who'll want a taste of that cup.
My guess is that this is the last thing most ultra runners want.
Fair enough, but I was responding to the family reaction that the OP received when comparing a friend of a family member being admired with herself (family) being thought of as insane.
I do think that it takes a special type of person to be motivated by the 'cult' like family within endurance events when there isn't fanfare.
That doesn't mean "crazy" or "insane". It just means that y'all are special and dedicated beyond my understanding. And I say that with respect.
And, if it's the "last thing [you] want", then unfortunately, there'll likely be a gap in perception of those within your non-ultra social circles.

...or the Lifetime "The Healthy Way of Life Company" Leadville Race Series? Shudder, indeed...
""...the truth that someday, you will go for your last run. But not today—today you got to run." - Matt Crownover (after Western States)
Eye of Sauron
I can eat 50 eggs.
As for Ironman, I was there at the beginning of the boom, just after "the early days" (I did my thing from 1988-1992)... I know the folks who work(ed) at Ironman central in Kona, and I used to make a chunk of change doing Ironman course orientation rides and runs for people who'd come over to train in summer and early fall (2002-2006). And for those who got in via lottery or other now-plugged loopholes which got you into Kona without previously completing a full Ironman elsewhere, a bit of personal training hoo ha.
I say that to say this: the branding shenanigans of Ironman... not just the races, but the use of the name on all kinds of crap... plus the sponsorship dealings with companies who advertise at Ironman (Ford, for example)... that stuff is amazingly bizarre and full of great silliness.
Flashy bikes and goofy triathlon clothes aside, running 100 miles is pretty crazy, but ultras feel more 'pure' in comparison. By lots. Even when "Montrail" and "North Face" appear in front of the name. Mehopes the Leadville model does not portend the future.
And once again Mr. Wizard (aka: Stevie Ray) explains the internet.
No one other than ultrarunners are going to understand what you do. Talk about family things with your family, talk about running with your running friends. If the family gets too negative, bake them one of these.
"Make no little plans. They have no magic to stir men's blood." -Daniel Burnham
"Good grief you are gross." -L Train
Wise words there
I only bring running up if someone mentions it and even then I look for the signal to shut up if I get to passionite! Also as I have lost weight in the last 3 months (6ft2 and down to 12 stones from 12'10) my family and wife always comment on how skinny or ill I look. I have just learnt to filter that out by way of saying this is me and that I am comfortable with it.
My biggest issue has been trying to manage the inevitable conflict of committing to training and spending time at weekend with family, still working on that one
Ironman has got TV coverage, and maybe people don't realize how long those people are out there. (short attention span and channel surfing)
I don't talk about running to non-runners, unless someone asks me.
Even the HM people at work think I'm crazy...
I think it's assumed family and friends who are not ultra runners won't get it (though I am very lucky in this regard... my family just thinks of me somewhat like a low degree addict and I have some friends who are proud even) but the ironman thing reminded me...
I was in class at the gym and the teacher and another class member were training for an Ironman. When it got out I wanted to do a 100 mile, people were freaking out and calling me insane... Including the teacher. I was like, uhh, we're both doing more than a marathon and you're paying waaaayyyy more for the privilege of beating yourself up.

Google Recognises Palestine
Posted: May 5th, 2013 | Author: M.Aaron Silverman | Filed under: Favorite New Thought . . ., From The Web | Tags: google, Google Palestine, Israel, Palestine, United Nations | Comments OffInternet search behemoth Google has recognised Palestine's upgraded United Nations status, placing the name "Palestine" on its search engine instead of "Palestinian Territories," the US company said, raising the ire of Israel. The domain name www.google.ps, Google's search engine for the territories, now brings up a homepage with "Palestine" written underneath the Google logo.
In November last year the UN general assembly upgraded Palestine to the status of non-member observer state by a vote of 138 votes in favour, 9 against and 41 abstentions.
Palestinian authorities have since begun to use the "State of Palestine" in diplomatic correspondence and issued official stamps for the purpose. The google recognition took effect this week, Google spokesman Nathan Tyler said in a statement :: Read the full article »»»»

1. | Electronica | ||
A mostly media-made term for encompassing all forms of electronic music, as individual forms of electronic music aren't popular enough for record stores to devote full sections to. Generally, it will be found next to an equally small "dance" section that carries the more danceable stuff, while electronica section carries more listening music. House, Trance, Techno, IDM, Jungle, Anything-core, Trip-hop, Acid/Electronic Jazz, Whatever-bient, and thousands of other obscure genres are generally stuffed into "Electronica"
2. | electronica | ||
Electronica, commonly called techno, is more or less a form of electronic/computer based dance music that is popular with younger crowds. It comes in many forms including trance, acid jazz, jungle, trip-hop, drum and bass, house, and countless other sub genres. It is more or less an evolution of 70s disco, but can arguably be traced all the way to the early 1900s. Its not known who exactly started electronica, but several DJs and artists from Detriot, Germany, France, and the UK have helped evolve the music form since the late 60s and early 70s when it first appeared to larger amounts of listeners. "Electronica uses catchy beats to get people interested"
3. | electronica | ||
In the UK and europe the word electronica usually refers to a specific sub genre of electronic music
(Like the word techno which is often mistaken to mean all electronic music). Electronica is normally considered more intelligent than dance music. The music is about using technology to create unusual sounds, melodies and heavily processed drums (often in patterns where the same bar is never repeated requiring painstaking programming) These elements are crafted into an intricate and some times emotive piece of music. The results are usually closer ambient or experimental music than they are to dance music. electronica is often elitist and the scene can come with some pretence. but there are some great electronica tracks out there. check out beatports electronica section
4. | electronica | ||
contrary to the ignorant public that only likes the godawful top 40 and rap-pop stuff, electronica is not synonamous with electronic music. there are multiple genres of electronic music (like there are genres of rock) such as trance, house, techno, jungle, hardcore etc. electronica is a genre of electronic music that encompasses "listenable" subgenres like downtempo and IDM. Maushawn the wigger: dude, chingy is better 'den electronica!
Electronic fan: oh yeah? well frankie knuckles is coming to your house and is going to do a drive-by on your ass. |
5. | Electronica | ||
A word the media came up with to refer to all forms of Electronic Music. Electronica is not a music genre. For more information, see Ishkur's Guide to Electronic Music. Google it. Neo: There is no Electronica.
6. | Electronica | ||
A word used by the media to describe the revival of electronic music in popularity in the mid to late 1990's. Specifically, it referred to electronic music with a sound influenced by rock (with live drums instead of electronically produced percussion) and a little bit of hip-hop (mainly breaks/samples). This style, while called electronica by the mass media, became known as Big Beat (which I will use to describe "electronica" from now on in the definition) by many others, and it included subgenres such as Chemical Breaks and Funky Breaks, too. Big Beat eventually fell out of fashion, mainly its focus on breaks made it unoriginal; there were only a few dozen breaks that producers used, so it became repetitive.
However, some of the people making big beat back during it's heyday are still producing this type of music, most notably The Chemical Brothers, who won the Grammy award for best electronic/dance album in 2006 (for the album "Push The Button"). Person A: Did you listen to that new Fatboy Slim album? That was some great electronica!
Person B: It's big beat, not electronica. (Person B walks away from Person A and sighs.) Stupid media. Examples of big beat groups: Fatboy Slim, The Chemical Brothers, The Crystal Method, The Prodigy (starting in 1997) |
7. | electronica | ||
A genre of music which is mainly created by the use of computer systems and other electronic devices. Includes many differnt styles such as Techno, Trance, Breakbeats, NRG, Melodic, etc. Yeah I reckon my favourite style of electronica would probably be Hard Trance.

The print is mounted on eco-friendly HDF smooth wood and sealed with a special semi-matte UV laminate, which protects the print and reduces glare while maintaining excellent image clarity and contrast. The mount is finished with a beveled 1"-deep black edge, resulting in an elegant, modern, and durable print display that hangs flush against the wall. (more info)
With this innovative display method, a glossy print is professionally mounted face-first onto 3/16" museum-grade, UV protected, scratch-resistant plexiglass, and backed by 1/8" black acid-free board. An inset french-cleat hanging system is attached to the back, so that the print floats 1/2" off of the wall, appearing like a glass framed print is floating on the wall, but without the matte and frame.

These were so easy to make. I loved that I could just whip up the dough in the bread machine. We made these for a Valentine's day treat and made them heart shaped. I let the kids put whatever topping they wanted and they were so yummy! They've already requested them again!

I was prompted to try this recipe when I found the reviews saying they were great. Well, they were! They were a snap to make and tasted great! Try using a spatula to remove the pretzels from the water. The one problem I did have was that the salt would not stick on the pretzels, even with a sprinkling of water. Next time I might try putting the salt on before baking. Otherwise, I would definitely recommend and I will be making this recipe again.

Names And Salaries Of More NM Workers Going Online
The Bernalillo County Commission has voted to post the names and salaries of all its workers online as a transparency measure. The commission voted 3-2 to adopt the online postings as part of an openness and transparency measure.
Bernalillo County has been posting public salaries but not along with the workers' names.
Measure sponsor Commissioner Wayne Johnson says in a statement that transparency in government is the foundation for good government and allows citizens to hold public workers and elected officials accountable.
The information is available on the county's sunshine portal, http://www.bernco.gov/bernco-view .
The state of New Mexico has been posting names and salaries online since earlier this year.

Saturday Sermon: Over and Above Naturalism, Part 2
Barkley suggests that material creation is not the end of our understanding (as Naturalists think), but a beginning that unveils the majestic and power of a Creator who loves us.
The Creation of Beauty
Physical death is a necessary and, perhaps, disconcerting element of the evolutionary process for many Christians. It is difficult to imagine a perfect and loving God designing such a universe where forces such as natural death and entropy operate.
Breaking Free of the Enlightenment's Shackles
Pete Shaw, the senior pastor of Crosswalk Community Church in Napa California, offers a brief history of the interactions between science and faith in the first segment of his sermon.
Weekend Sermon: A Tale of Two Cities
This sermon is a clear reminder that we each have a choice. We can work to build cities that celebrate God's love for us (the lineage of Seth), or we can live in the destructive lineage of Cain. May the spirit of prayer, humility, and love characterize the world's cities on this the tenth anniversary of America's most stark example of "The Tale of Two Cities."

Good |
Up to 30" |
Some nice channel catfish have been caught on cutbait and shrimp. The feeders are not filled yet, but will be later this week. |
Crappie |
Good |
8-10" |
Crappie fishing has been good, mostly for small fish though. Recent sampling showed many crappie in the 14 inch range, though. |
Largemouth bass |
Good |
Up to 5 lb. |
Some 20+" fish have been caught already this spring. Recent sampling showed the best numbers in submerged vegetation. The population looks great, with the big fish of the sample weighing in at 7.1 lb. |
Saugeye |
Fair |

A few saugeye were sampled last fall in gill nets. There probably aren't high enough densities to target saugeye quite yet, but anglers should be aware that a few have survived stockings and may be caught. |

Introducing Pauly Van Doorn and Sumner!
Just a little bit to get you familiar with the two DJ's that helped show DC that rain or shine, nothing stops the dirty drops!
Tomorrow I'll give you the awesome details, but for now let's see what these two have to say about themselves (Both are DJ's and part of Nu Entertainment):
Pauly Van Doorn (PVD)
POSITION: Founder, Chief of Promotion, DJ
FROM: Washington D.C.
STYLE: Progressive Trance, Progressive House
BEST KNOWN FOR: Collaboration of trance/ progressive house music from well known DJs such as Armin van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Gareth Emery, Avicii, Swedish House Mafia, and much more.
MUSIC: D.R.E.A.M. and O.N. AIR.
"D.C. is my playground, prepare to run this city like it's your bi*ch!"
POSITION: DJ, Jack-of-all-trade
Sumner earned his stripes in the North Carolina EDM scene as a young maestro in 2008. Transplanting to DC in the spring of 2010, he quickly ingratiated himself with the Capital club scene, teaming up with local collective, Scandal, for gigs at Fly Lounge & Gazuza Lounge and Will Eastman for his Bliss Party at U Street Music Hall. While not in the booth, he hits up the eastern seaboard from VA to NYC as well as the west coast, earning a name for himself through his infamous "Wake Me On Tuesday" house parties. His musical palette continues to evolve, but the majority of his studio mixes and live sets can be characterized by a variety of massive electro hooks, melodic trance breakdowns, and steady techno & minimalistic rhythms, which still have the soul and accessibility of house music.
FROM: Washington D.C.
STYLE: Electro House, Progressive House, Tech House, Minimal, Dubstep
BEST KNOWN FOR: Collaboration with DJs at U-Street Music Hall. Opened for Will Eastman. Written up on Brightest Young Thing (BYT)
MUSIC: www.soundcloud.com/dsumner

Thank you for contacting the Walt Disney World® Resort.
While we appreciate your interest, CDs containing the compilations of our various resort and theme park background music selections are not offered.
Chandler, we look forward to entertaining you at the Walt Disney World Resort.
If you have questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact us.
Please include your full name, E-Mail address, and reservation number if applicable on all correspondence.

PLEASE NOTE: All information is subject to change without notice and should be confirmed just prior to your visit.
I clearly stated that I wanted a list of songs and not a cd.
Posted 27 April 2012 - 07:15 AM
Posted 27 April 2012 - 12:09 PM
Try asking for things like track listings and playlists or just a list of music played at xyz.
Don't even mention CDs as they will pick "CD" out and stop reading - in fact maybe an automatic reader picks out words in the first place.
I have had similar things happen. A second or third reply usually gets a human to read them. Keep trying (hit the reply button on their mail rather than writing afresh whoever/whatever reads the initial email will pick that out..

My second'response:
Thank you for contacting the Walt Disney World® Resort.
While we sincerely appreciate your interest, at this time, a playlist of songs from our various resort and theme park locations is not currently available.
Chandler, we wish you a magical day.
If you have questions or need further assistance, feel free to contact us.
Posted 29 April 2012 - 11:41 AM
That generally means that it's (a.) come from another park (b.) was compiled for Disney by another company, (c.) the same person has made too many requests or (d.) they haven't bothered making one.
They may just not be giving out playlists any more, of course.
Getting a reply is a good sign, at least (they often just ignore them).
The replies I have had from DLRP like this are generally that your name has come up too often. Try an identical mail using a different email address. You may get a surprise. I find that more than two requests and you get a reply like this. They may just log the number of mails rather than the content. A few months later, a similar request can get a positive response. I have a small number or alternative email addresses for this purpose.

Summer will be here before you know it! The last day of school for Kalamazoo Public Schools is June 15th, and that's also the first day of Summer Reading Games here at KPL. This year's game is easier than ever, so stop in at the Teen desk or any branch library, pick up a game board, and then start reading! The more you read, the more prizes you'll earn. Don't forget to come down to the library for Summer programming, too- we've got all sorts of activities to keep you entertained. Here's just a few program highlights for teens:
There's literally tons more stuff to do this summer, so be sure to check our calendar regularly to make sure you don't miss out. Even better, certain programs are special prize drawing programs where you can nab all sorts of cool stuff- but you've got to show up to win! Signup begins June 15th... don't miss out!
Hey, J-Pop fans! We need more ideas about what kinds of things you like to read and watch. Take a few minutes with this short survey and let us know what you want to see at the library!
UPDATED: Based on the number of votes, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood narrowly beat Akira for the next J-Pop viewing! But fear not- we have tons of anime to watch so we'll definitely get to your favorites.
UPDATE: Space is totally full for the hands-on portion of the program on both days! We'll still have some room for people to watch the artists work, so if you're interested come on down!
Attention all manga and anime fans! Ever wondered how to draw your own manga like the pros? Come to Central on Friday, March 11th at 3:30 PM, or the Kalamazoo Institute of Art on Saturday, March 12 at 1 PM to see a hands-on demonstration with award-winning Japanese manga artists Kohei Nishino and Tsugumi Nishino!
The duo, who create work under the collective name Konohana Sakuya, have been making manga and anime together for many years and have collaborated on some of the most popular titles in Japan. Since August 2004, they've had their latest work, "The Lights", serialized in the monthly version of Shonen Jump Magazine. Learn how to do brush and ink illustration at Central, and screentone shading at the KIA.
Have you been to the library lately? If not, summer is a good time to reacquaint yourself with all the activities available to teens…all for F R E E.
First, there's the summer reading game, designed to keep kids reading during the summer months by enticing them with prizes and opportunities to win raffle drawings for big ticket items like a digital camera or an iPod Touch. If you haven't signed up yet, come to any branch and let us know you want to play along. It's painless, it doesn't require a library card, and all you have to do is keep track of how many pages you read throughout the summer. We even provide you with a gameboard.
Second, there are all kinds of special programs planned for teens this summer. Whether you like crafts, movies, or gaming, there's bound to be something you'll enjoy. There's even a Japanese Swordplay demonstration. Check our calendar for all the options. Some require advance registration…others you can just show up if the spirit moves you. We'd love to see you!
Lastly, there are three recurring groups that meet on a monthly basis throughout the year: Teen Advisory Board (T. A. B), Galley Review Group, and J-Pop Club. Each of these groups always welcomes new members, so bring a friend and come join us!
Summer at the library – it's not just for little kids any more.
Fellow graphic novel fans, let us all rejoice in the latest news of Scott Pilgrim! What's that? You don't know about Scott Pilgrim? Why, it's only the single most awesome graphic novel series of the past whatever years! At once hilarious and touching, the award-winning Scott Pilgrim series combines comedy, romance, science fiction, martial arts, manga, video games, skateboarding and rock music into a graphic novel so amazing, mere description simply does not do it justice- but I'll do my best:
Scott Pilgrim (20-something slacker and bass player for the band Sex Bob-omb) is unemployed and living in Toronto when he quite literally meets the girl of his dreams. Scott's been dreaming about rollerblade-wearing Amazon delivery girl Ramona Flowers ever since she started using his head as a trans-dimensional gateway to make her deliveries on time, and when they finally meet at a party it seems everything's looking up for ol' Scott. But not so fast! Ramona has seven evil ex-boyfriends and they're all coming to kill Scott, so in order to keep himself and his relationship with Ramona he'll have to defeat all of them in hand-to-hand combat. In short, just your average Canadian-slacker-bass-playing-boy-meets-rollerblading-girl-of-his-dreams-and-must-then-defeat-her-seven-evil-ex-boyfriends-who-are-coming-to-kill-him kind of story.
Two days ago, series creator Brian Lee O'Malley released the completely astounding cover art to the long-awaited sixth (and final) volume in the series, Scott Pilgrim's Finest Hour! I've posted a small version of the cover here, but you can download a bigger version for your computer or phone at Brian's official site. Now, as if that wasn't enough, some marketing genius saw fit to post the trailer to the upcoming film adaptation Scott Pilgrim vs. The World this morning! The movie, directed by Edgar Wright(who also directed Shawn of the Dead and Hot Fuzz so you know it'll be great), will be released here in the US on August 13. If you've read the series, you'll recognize just how awesomely awesome this trailer is. Check it out!
Updated: Due to the library closing on Thursday because of hazardous weather conditions, Mark's visit had to be canceled and will be rescheduled for the spring. Please check back on this page for further information!
Calling all comics fans: Teen Services invites you to join us as we welcome back author and illustrator Mark Crilley! Mark will be talking about all of his books for tweens and teens, including the acclaimed Akikographic novels for tweens and the manga series Miki Falls for teens, which was recently chosen by Brad Pitt's film company to be made into a major feature film. The Comics Buyers Guide also called Miki Falls "a brilliant new series by one of comicdom's best storytellers." The series was awarded a spot on the Young Adult Library Services Association's Great Graphic Novels for Teens list in 2007, and Akiko has been nominated for the Will Eisner Award over a dozen times since 1995! Come listen to Mark as he tells behind-the-scenes stories from his experiences as a writer and illustrator, provides tips for aspiring writers and artists in the audience, and shares information about writing and storytelling.
For more information about Mark and a look at his work, check out his website or his page at DeviantArt.
Here in the Teen Services department, we are constantly striving to provide the kinds of programs that Kalamazoo's teenagers want. We know that gaming, crafts, and Japanese pop culture are popular. And Galley Group attracts new enthusiastic teen readers almost every month. Besides those, however, are there other programs we could offer that would bring you and your friends to the library? If so, we want to hear from you! Among the ideas that we have recently scheduled that either had to be cancelled due to lack of registrants or had few, if any, attendees include reader's theatre and workshops in the library's computer lab.
If you are a teenager and you have some good ideas about how the library can better serve its teen patrons, please leave your comments below. Better yet, consider joining the Teen Advisory Board (T.A.B.), which meets once a month. The next meeting is Wednesday, December 2, from 3:30 to 5 in the Van Deusen Room. We look forward to your feedback!
Anime, manga, and graphic novels continue to be crazy-popular, and this popularity has led tons of people to learn to draw in these styles. Of course, every artist has their downfall, and for many people, this means hands. Let's face it, hands are just hard to draw! Check out this video of Mark Crilley giving pointers.
We found this video on Drawn: The Illustrating and Cartooning Blog, which is a great resource for anyone who likes to draw.
