All the seasons of Dexter starts in September last week or first week of October but this season is an early bird maybe the makers are planning for surprises for Series finale. It is the continuation of trauma endured by the characters in the last season of this crime-thriller. It peels out various layers of relationships between the lead characters and takes it to an all new level.
Six months after Maria LaGuerta's death Dexter is living life midst a new spirit with his casual sex with new friends(I think stripper's), back with his bowling team "Bowl 'Till You Bleed" and coaching his son Harrison's soccer team to championship. Harrison is bigger as he talks, runs and asks questions. Debra is missing from the office space and is not visible on her friend's radar. Angel Batista is finding it difficult to cope with death of Maria LaGuerta and finds himself custodian of her household items. Joey Quinn and Jamie Batista are having sex like some horny teenagers or better dogs. Vince Masuka continues to live with his filthy talk and lab.
Later we see Deter breaking to Debra's house and finds Xanax, Paxil and Adderall from prescriptions of different doctors and pot. He tracks her down to a private investigation agency ALWAY and is told about Andrew Briggs. He is a thief who stole jewelry worth half a million and is now a case for Debra as she snorts cocaine and has sex with him; this shows us her desperation for a relationship. Dexter confronts Debra and she yells out all the frustration but Briggs interferes making it come to an end.
"We both chose murder. Maybe we are both a little crazy."
"What did you do?"
"…you didn't belong with him."
"Fuck. Fuck! Fuck! Will you fucing go? Will you go!? PLEASE go!"
"I came here to save you!"
"Deb, look at yourself. You're lost."
"I am not lost. I know exactly where I am. I am in some shitty fucking hell, which is exactly what I deserve! YOU are lost."
"Aren't you the one that's always saying 'bad people deserve to die'?"
"Debra was right. I was wrong. It's me who's lost."
Dexter shows a new emotion of Anger and Denial as he picks up an argument with the person who cut his vehicle on road only to be calmed by the guy's son on back seat. Dexter is shown fighting with his temper when Harrison visits his workplace and breaks a red vase of Maria LaGuerta given to him by Angel Batista; he shouts at him and seconds later repent showing his unawareness.
Later Dexter understands of a meeting between Briggs and a buyer El Sapo from Quinn as Debra phones and informs him for details. Dexter meanwhile does a check on El Sapo and comes to know that his name is Javier Guzman and is a Hitman hired by the mob whose jewelry was stolen by Briggs. He takes Harrison and goes to find Debra and explain but all in vain as Briggs comes in between wherein a fight ensures he is knife stabbed and killed by Dexter. Cops arrive and register for homicide and Debra reports to ALWAY claiming she may know the jewelry location but all of these is seen by Javier Guzman in background.
In midst of all a new character is introduced and a new psychopath. A mechanic is killed and his brain is sliced from Parietal to Occipital with back of cranium removed with melon baller. Miami Metro brings in Dr. Evelyn Vogel (portrayed by Charlotte Rampling) an expert Neuropsychiatrist and author about serial killers. Dr. Evelyn Vogel specializes on serial killers, and she's quickly on to Bay Harbor Butcher and Dexter. She explains the removal of cranium to be a move to dispel empathy name of serial killer to be The Brain Surgeon. Dexter smells foul about her from the start but confirms his fear when she hands him few crayon drawings of Dexter as a child of people being murdered. Dexter intimidates her but she is confident that Dexter won't harm her as he follows Harry's code.
Rating - *** (Good)
Thus start of this season was pretty good with new cases and mysteries left to unravel.

Peeling the Onion
Screams of protest went up in Germany last year when this expansive memoir by the 1999 Nobel laureate hit the bookshops. That in itself was hardly surprising. Ever since the publication of The Tin Drum in 1959, Grass has been going out of his way to be provocative, to point the finger at his fellow Germans.
In novel after novel, poem after poem, he reminded them of their murky history in the recent past. Time and again he insisted that the beneficiaries of the Nazi regime were doing very nicely, thank you, in West Germany, the paradise of the post-World War II economic miracle. Before long, a classic Pavlovian reaction emerged among critics and commentators. As soon as a new work by Grass was announced, the barking started.
After the Berlin Wall came down, Grass changed tack a little. He was still excoriating former Nazis and their sympathisers, who were busily plundering the resources of the old GDR.
A new note was sounded, however. In a long, turgid and often tedious novel known in English as Too Far Afield, released in 1995, a little over 50 years after the Red Army captured Berlin, Grass had the temerity to suggest that some valuable aspects of life were lost when the Stasi-controlled totalitarian state - vividly depicted in the recent film The Lives of Others - collapsed.
The fuss was extraordinary. I happened to be in Germany at the time. I knew that back in Australia people were getting themselves tied in knots over The Hand that Signed the Paper. What I witnessed week after week as the media and the literati howled for Grass's blood made our own noisy scandal seem gentle and genteel by comparison.
Now comes the English version of last year's cause celebre. This time, however, the boot is on the other foot. Peeling the Onion - a commonplace and eventually tiresome conceit - deals with the first 30 years or so of Grass's life. He was born in 1927 in Danzig, now the Polish city Gdansk, famous as the heartland of Solidarity, the Vatican-backed workers' movement that helped topple the Soviet empire.
At the time of Grass's birth, Danzig was a predominantly German-speaking free state (hived off from the German Reich after World War I) surrounded by Slavs. Grass's parents were small shopkeepers who struggled to make ends meet in a poky two-room flat with a communal lavatory on the landing. The elder Grass was enthusiastic when Hitler took over the city. His wife was much more ambivalent. Their daughter was too young to understand what was going on. But Gunter, the adolescent son, was beguiled by Dr Goebbels's propaganda machine: patriotic broadcasts, carefully edited newsreels of stunning victories and numberless deeds of amazing heroism. He lusted for adventure, setting his sights on becoming a submariner.
Life (and perhaps death) beneath the waves was not to be his lot. In the last months of 1944, just short of his 17th birthday, he managed to be accepted by the army and was assigned to a unit of the Waffen SS. He saw some action and much chaos in Germany and Bohemia. Soon, Grass insists, the infatuation with the glory of the Fatherland faded.
He was captured by the Americans, interned in various camps, including one at Marienbad (nowadays Marianske Lazne), a once luxurious spa resort. He was soon set free and embarked on a career of working in mines, as a stonecutter, an aspiring sculptor and artist, occasional poet and eventually a world-renowned (and reviled) novelist, the conscience of his nation.
That is, at least, how Grass tells the story of his adventures with the Waffen SS. The uproar that followed the publication of this book in Germany often questioned the reliability of his disclaimers. He was, he insists, merely a misguided boy, not a fanatic or an ideologue. By the time he signed up, he suggests, the Waffen SS was no more than a pale shadow of its former gory self. Some commentators agree with him: not every sector of that notorious organisation committed war crimes for which the organisation as a whole was condemned. Others are not so forgiving: even in the dying days of the Third Reich, being accepted by the Waffen SS was no mean accomplishment.
The truth, as ever, probably lies somewhere in the middle. Yet what is so troubling about this memoir is not the fact itself but the way Grass consistently tries to pick his way around one awkward spot: the decades of denial, of drawing a veil over what may have been no more than adolescent folly. As always, it's the attempted cover-up that does the most damage.
These matters occupy no more than a third of a long book. Yet they cast a shadow over the rest. Of course, Grass can write wonder- fully: there are vivid descriptions of wartime and postwar Germany in these pages.
Among several memorable anecdotes one stands out: how in a prisoner of war camp he played dice with a deeply religious young man from Bavaria called Joseph. His surname, Grass insists without real evidence, might have been Ratzinger, thus identifying the youth as the future Pope Benedict.
Another anecdote tells of an impromptu jam session with the great Satchmo. The death of Grass's mother is movingly described. His own Italian journey - a must for Germans ever since Goethe's time - is told wonderfully well. And for Grass enthusiasts there are countless details that identify the genesis of his novels, particularly of The Tin Drum - where this odd memoir stops short - and any amount of literary-artistic gossip.
It may be ungenerous but I couldn't banish the suspicion that most of this book is window-dressing. As Grass peels away layer after layer of the onion of the past, one note, like a Wagnerian leitmotiv, is constantly sounded: he can't remember things, memory is so treacherous. All that makes a bad pun irresistible: people who live in grass houses ...

I took my bridals last Thursday, and whalllah, they are posted online today. You can look at them at dustontodd.instaproofs.com. I think that they turned out great, I'm very excited. Hal didn't come get them taken with me, and hasn't seen my dress so you are all sworn to secrecy about what my dress looks like and aren't allowed to show him any pictures.
Also, please let me know which are your favorites because we have to order some for our picture table.
Yay, pretty much everything is planned at this point. If any of you will be in town before the wedding and have cool clear vases we would love to borrow them.

When it comes to diamonds, most men are even worse than clueless. For both reasons, RMG Connect's latest online effort for Diamond Trading Corporation's "A Diamond is Forever" campaign is an early—and much-needed—holiday gift. Designed around an interactive map motif, the new website teaches men how to "Speak Love Fluently" and express their true feelings to their significant others through a translation guide (i.e. what each individual piece of diamond jewelry says so you don't have to); a "how-to" diamond-buying checklist; and the "Find Your Words with Diamonds Sweepstakes," a crossword puzzle game that nets some rather shiny and expensive prizes for the word-savvy winners.

Gay, John (1813-1885) (DNB00)
GAY, JOHN (1813–1885), surgeon, was born at Wellington, Somersetshire, in 1813, and after a successful studentship at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London, became M.R.C.S. in 1834, and in 1836 was appointed surgeon to the newly established Royal Free Hospital, with which he was connected for eighteen years. In 1856 he became surgeon of the Great Northern Hospital, of which he was senior surgeon at the time of his death, which took place on 15 Sept. 1885, after two years' partial paralysis. He left a widow, one daughter, and two sons. Besides contributions to the medical press and an elaborate article on 'Cleft Palate' in Costello's 'Cyclopædia of Surgery,' Gay wrote several important practical memoirs, which are enumerated below. His work on femoral rupture (1848) described a new mode of operating, modified from that of Mr. Luke. Sir W. Fergusson, in his 'Practical Surgery,' says of it: 'For many years I have rarely performed any other operation for crural hernia.' The book exhibits much anatomical and surgical research. He also advocated and successfully practised the free incision of acutely suppurating joints, and this came into general use. In the treatment of chronic and indurated ulcers of the leg he introduced considerable improvements, and his Lettsomian lectures and other writings exhibit intelligence, study, and practical skill. Gay was of short stature, active, enthusiastic, and somewhat impetuous, high-principled and popular socially. He wrote: 1. 'On Femoral Rupture, its Anatomy, Pathology, and Surgery,' 4to, 1848. 2. 'On Indolent Ulcers and their Surgical Treatment,' 1855. 3. 'On Varicose Disease of the Lower Extremities and its Allied Disorders' (the Lettsomian lectures before the Medical Society of London, 1867), 1868. 4. 'On Hæmorrhoidal Disorder,' 1882. He contributed many papers to the medical journals and transactions of societies.[Lancet, Medical Times, 26 Sept. 1885; Barker's Photographs of Eminent Medical Men, ii. 43; Trans. Medico-Chirurg. Soc. lxix. 13.]

A Hiatus at last!
Whew, it's been getting a bit dusty here in the Paleo Kingdom. Exams are over and things have entered a new stage. And pterosaurs will dominate the next few weeks. I'm working on a lot of new things right now, paleo-related and not. Since the pterosaur gallery on ArtEvolved will be opening soon - AND since the debate surrounding it has grabbed a bit too much of my attention (and that of many others) - I've decided to take a break from pterosaurs (and mile-long blog posts) and spill just a few beans on my next project... (which incidentally will NOT contain any pterosaurs!)
Here's a preliminary sketch for part of it. Anyone dare to guess what this creature is?

Kentrosaurus seems too obvious. Nice neck & head posture, though. ;-)

I have to say I like the head and neck posture too.
Especially in light of the recent article by Darren Naish pointing out how Stegosaurs with the usual straight low necks are wrong...

LOL It's not kentrosaurus (yeah I know it's been a while!). I wouldn't make it that easy! But you're getting warmer...
As for the neck, thanx. It's a pure GSP tribute, that one!
- July 7, 2009 at 11:32 AM
I think it's that Portuguese long necked Stegosaur - Miragaia.
- July 8, 2009 at 9:56 AM
- Nima said...
Good guess, but still wrong :( Miragaia had a much longer neck than this guy, almost as long as the tail in fact - the species I drew has pretty much the standard-sized Stegosaur neck (in this diagram, it's only a bit over a meter in length).
However, you're still getting warmer. It shared the same habitat as Miragaia.
- July 10, 2009 at 8:01 PM
Maybe is Dacentrurus, rests of this stegosaurid were fonded in England, France and Pourtugal...

Lexovisaurus durobrivensis Hoffstetter 1957 (=Omosaurus durobrivensis Hulke, 1887); early-middle Callovian.

Florida's $82.4 billion budget finally landed on Gov. Rick Scott's desk last Wednesday where it was promptly subject to partial veto.
Gov. Scott vetoed $410 million in projects but also hammered out a deal that, among other things, would increase per-student funding for public schools. As a result of the veto, a special legislative session has been called, forcing the House and the Senate to take another whack at the state budget.
But before educators hail the effort that could add $100 more for each public school student - a significant bump over the much decried $24 per student increase in the budget sent to the governor - they still need to step back a bit and review this year's controversial regular session which included a 451-page appropriations measure tagged with a highly controversial omnibus bill for education funding.
HB 7069 drew extensive criticism from a plethora of sources, from virtually all of the state's public school associations representing teachers, superintendents and school board members - who said the measure would fiscally devastate public education - to Sunshine Law proponents such as the First Amendment Foundation, who took strong issue in how the 274-page amalgamation of a variety of education proposals was hammered out behind closed doors in the waning hours of the legislative session.
HB 7069 also drew fervent support from organizations representing parent and charter school organizations that long have promoted school choice and what they say is parity funding for alternative public schools.
As the special legislative session begins today, we strongly urge those on the opposition side of HB 7069 to move beyond their complaints to examine why a measure they consider so onerous garnered the support to pass in the first place.
For that is key to not only this battle but for all the subsequent ones to come in the future.
In passing HB 7069, our state representatives were listening to constituents, who, for a variety of reasons are demanding options to traditional public schools.
Among those who urged Gov. Scott to sign the K-12 education budget bill were not only the anti-Common Core contingent and charter school lobbyists, but parents who want the ability to choose their child's educational environment and who reject what is being offered by public school systems that for generations faced little competition - or opposition.
While still a small percentage of students, homeschooling numbers have increased throughout the state, growing from 72,408 students in 2011-12 to 83,359 in 2015-16, according to figures from the Florida Department of Education. In Lee County, the families of 2,010 students chose to homeschool in 2015-16.
The numbers are more dramatic for families choosing charter schools. Of Lee's 92,263 school students for 2016-17, 12,244 opted for charter schools. Still others went the private school route.
Statewide, charter school enrollment is growing rapidly, rising from 98,755 students in 2006-07 to 270,301 in 2015-16.
There is a perception, particularly among middle-class parents, that charters offer a "private school" environment with more course-of-study choices. Lower-income parents simply want an alternative to lower-performing district-run schools.
HB 7069 promised money for both -money that currently is directed toward public schools whose officials maintain it's a much more complicated issue than simply having "funding follow students."
We agree; charter schools are no panacea.
Like district schools, they range, in terms of student performance numbers, from top-tier to near bottom.
They do not have to accept children with special needs.
They can limit enrollment to a select demographic, steered by transportation provided - or not - and parental volunteer requirements.
Unlike district schools, they can close, as seven have here in Lee County.
But all that does not change the fact that what parents want - indeed, what parents demand - is an alternative to a public school system that statewide had 42 percent of its third graders unable to achieve the minimum reading scores for fourth grade promotion this year.
Here in Lee that number was 43 percent with another 29 percent who "may need additional support for the next grade/course."
The bulk of the anti-HB 7069 rhetoric centered around the need to keep the dollars. To do that, districts need to keep students - i.e. demonstrate to parents that the best education for THEIR child is that provided by traditional public schools.
For make no mistake - even if the budget is re-configured in a manner less fiscally stressful to the educator-driven organizations who screamed for rejection - the issue of giving parents the choice they demand is not going away nor is the "funding follows students" argument.
Learn this lesson well.
Or expect to fight this sharing-of-dollars battle for things like construction and maintenance with charter schools again.
Perhaps with a school vouchers initiative as an added battle front.

In this article I want to talk about a runC container which I want to migrate around the world while clients stay connected to the application.
In my previous Checkpoint/Restore In Userspace (CRIU) articles I introduced CRIU (From Checkpoint/Restore to Container Migration) and in the follow-up I gave an example how to use it in combination with containers (Container Live Migration Using runC and CRIU). Recently Christian Horn published an additional article about CRIU which is also a good starting point.
In my container I am running Xonotic. Xonotic calls itself 'The Free and Fast Arena Shooter'. The part that is running in the container is the server part of the game to which multiple clients can connect to play together. In this article the client is running on my local system while the server and its container is live migrated around the world.
This article also gives detailed background information about

For the most sophisticated processes such as attention, perception, decision-making and risk-taking, the brain begins reaching maturity until the fourth decade. Both in the UK and the USA ,, maturity '' a person is a key factor regarding the investigation of a person.
In a report by the House of Common Select Committee has recommended that young adults aged between 18 and 25 to be treated differently from older criminals in May. The report suggests that most young people involved in crime stop at the age of 25 years.
One of the greatest difficulties to establish when the brain is mature is the discovery of a man whose brain has matured. The key change that occurs in adolescence until age 20 and 30 years is thinning gray matter and white matter thickening.
Increased white matter is to increase connectivity between different brain regions. The brain that continues to develop is the prefrontal cortex. This area of the brain located in the front of the head is involved in the activation of important factors such as attention, planning, decision making, control, logical thinking, personality development and short-term memory.

2016, d. The Duffer Bros.
It's been a year...a whole year since Stranger Things debuted. Hell it didn't so much debut as catch fire and roll screaming down the hall. This thing was H-O-T hot a year ago. Early notice from the Weekly Planet podcast had me on the lookout for the show's arrival, and when it came I couldn't trumpet its praises higher. From the opening title sequence, with it's John Carpenter-inspired theme pulsating and thudding as it reveals its retro-Stephen King bookjacket font (ITC Benguiat), an ominous red radiating mutely against a stark black backdrop, I was in. Then title cuts over to the chapter heading, again a stark, but solid, red font against the same black backdrop, only the red drops out, revealing an image behind it, as the text floats forward, larger and larger, revealing more and more of the image, the text becoming too large to be contained on screen, until its gone altogether.
The rest of the show could have been complete dross, but I would have still loved it for only these few touches. The evocation of the 1980's is the intent of this opening sequence and it achieves it irrefutably. It's strange to be so in love with the opening credits of a TV show, but really, I can't remember any TV credits sequence that enthused me to this degree where I don't want the credits to end.
With most shows, when binge watching, the credits become a hindrance, a time suck, they just get in the way of watching more of the show. With Stranger Things they're chapter markings, a stopping and starting point. They are an essential tone setter (and resetter). If you've stepped away then you're instantly transported back into the mood of the show with the credits. If you've just completed the previous episode then this acts as an interstitial, the chapter title providing a little foreshadowing and the zoom in setting the scene for this next stage.
Beyond the credits is one of the best TV experiences I've ever had. It's a nostalgia bomb, sure, but even if you weren't a child of the 80's it's so true to the era that it feels of the era, not retro. The details seem so precise (though I'm told a couple of the songs on the soundtrack are anachronistic, debuting after the time setting of the show)... the wardrobes are garishly spot-on (not so flattering as "retro" shows tend to make the style of the time), the living spaces are absurdly busy with meticulous details (very little of which seems incongruous to its environment), and technology is right where it should be.
The King/Carpenter vibe permeates the show, it fuels it. It's the perfect homage-slash-mashup of the two gentlemen's works in the 70's and early-80's, and yet it does it with such a modern sense of pacing and storytelling that it's totally of-the-now. The Duffer Brothers don't just look to their primary influences, but outside ones as well, there's aspects of James Cameron, John Hughes, and certainly others I'm not even cluing into. As a result, we have a nearly perfect show (#justiceforBarb) that I have a feeling will actually be timeless. The acting is superb, the effects are utterly effective, and the nuances are note perfect.
The only problem with Stranger Things might be it becoming a victim of its own success. So hugely popular the first season became, that the worry is a follow-up tries too hard to replicate it or tries too hard not too. Expectations are high for Season 2, probably too high, which may lead only to disappointment and dragging down what has already come.

My personal hero is Sargent Shriver and has been for some time. He epitomized living with purpose and showed up to life every day with drive and gratitude. Although I often fall short, I try to emulate his example daily. It's surprising to even myself that I hold someone I have no connection with in such high regard and credit for inspiring me to strive for my highest ideals.
Shriver accomplished so much. He sewed an infrastructure of social mobility and international alliances into the fabric of American culture. He is a giant of the Greatest Generation and single-handily founded or directed programs like Head Start, VISTA, Jobs Corps, Community Action, Upward Bound, Foster Grandparents, Special Olympics, the National Center on Poverty Law, Legal Services, and the Peace Corps.
As my role model, I have read about and analyzed his life thoroughly. I've derived what made him so successful was his power to empathize. While addressing his former Alma mater, Yale University, at its 1964 Commencement, Shriver advised: "Break your mirrors!! Yes -- Shatter the glass. In our society that is so self-absorbed, begin to look less at yourself and more at each other."
Despite the privilege of being part of the Kennedy dynasty, he strove to always relate to the disadvantaged. Two of our former DoGooder Spotlights share Shriver's power to identify and teach us the real life lesson of that the first step towards serving others is empathy.
Elizabeth Davis grew up with numerous advantages that helped her succeed at the prestigious Vanderbilt University. There, she learned about the Rwandan genocide and how more than a million people were killed during the course of the crises. After graduation, she immediately moved to the country and volunteered with a variety of grassroots organizations that served street children.
Through her experience, David began to see herself in the eyes of many of the Rwandan females. She decided to open a college because she wanted to provide educational opportunity that empowered Rwandan women to thrive with sustaining careers. Akilah Institute for Women opened its doors in 2010 to serve those affected by the 1994 genocide and offers diplomas in Hospitality and Business Management and Entrepreneurship. All students participate in internships at eco-lodges, high-end hotels or safari lodges to secure a career in the country's burgeoning tourism industry.
Davis aims to create a transformational model for higher education in women that can be replicated in countries around the world. When asked what drives her, she explains she sees herself in those she helps: "I was born to a well-off family in the right country, and young women born across the world were denied the same opportunities. I do what I do out of a sense of obligation."
Like Shriver and Davis, Megan Gunderman has dedicated her career to extending educational opportunities to those who lacked the resources that she had as a child. While traveling through Tanzania to research and complete her degree in International Relations and Geography, she volunteered at an orphanage. She was shocked to learn many of the institutions could only accommodate a certain number of children before they were pushed out. Kids, as young as seven-years-old, were often left to fend for themselves in the streets.
Gunderman noticed that children in the country were seen as number instead of individuals. While there, she developed a love for three triplets who were living in the orphanage and risked being pushed out. "I wanted to find a way to add value to their lives in the long-term," Gunderman says. "I loved the idea of using education as a tool to help themselves out of a circle of poverty."
Reaching out to family and friends, she raised enough money to send the triplets to a safe environment at an African boarding school. Ultimately, this sparked the idea for The Foundation for Tomorrow (TFFT), a nonprofit that provides scholarships for African orphans to attend boarding schools in their home countries. Today, the nonprofit has given 82 children scholarships at boarding schools through the country.
Like Shriver, Davis and Gunderman inspire me so much because they recognize that while they have been given so much, they have a responsibility to give back. Who would think that these privileged American girls could relate to African women and children that grew up a half a world away? It proves that integrating and actually empathizes with those in need usually reveals ways to help. Shriver understood this when he created the Peace Corp.
In January 2011, Sergeant Shriver died at the age of 95 of Alzheimer's. His son Timothy explained at his funeral that before his father lost his mind to the crushing disease, he begged his dad to summarize his life on a napkin. After much persuasion, he relented and shared the following words, which have now become sort of mantra to me:
I'm a man who was born and tried to live committed to be to be open to all people, no matter their differences nationality, race, religion or geography. I am a man full of energy and health. I'm a man who takes his responsibilities seriously. I'm committed to do everything I can to succeed. I'm a man who tries to be original and creative. I'm a man unencumbered by the past and by existing hierarchies. I feel free to invent. I believe the world was and is created by God. I believe the world is good beyond description. I believe that we human beings seeking life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness do so because God has given us those things. I believe we have a responsibility to God to do whatever we can to do good things for people, especially the poor. I believe in ideals. I believe the world can be better if we only focus on achieving our ideals. I believe any failure to achieve our ideals should only result in a rededication to them. I believe in faith, hope and love. I believe they have the greatest power.
A life well lived... and it starts with empathy.

Education and Training
Kindergarten to Grade 4 English Language Arts: A Foundation for Implementation
Implementation Overview: K-4
The Early Years Learner and the Learning Environment - Part 1
Literacy development is continuous from birth, beginning with a childs earliest experiences with language. Observations of young children show that the development of oral language, reading, and writing are interrelated processes, and that children learn to read and write concurrently. Young children will initiate activities with paper, pencils and crayons, and books and magazines, and will spontaneously assume the roles of writer and reader in their daily play. These observations of young children as they read and write form the foundation of the concept of emergent literacy.
In emergent literacy, children actively engage in acquiring language and in constructing their own understandings of how oral and written language works. They experiment with these understandings, testing them in verbal interaction with their parents and other adults. As parents and other adults demonstrate reading and writing in purposeful, meaningful ways, young children come to expect meaning from print. Studies show that children who are early readers have been read to extensively by their families. By the time they are two or three, many children can read environmental print such as familiar traffic or safety signs and symbols, restaurant names, or words they see in the media.
Early Years teachers recognize that young children bring to school a range of literacy experiences and knowledge that can be built upon in the classroom. Childrens knowledge about print expands quickly as they participate in meaningful and genuine experiences with reading, listening, talking, viewing, representing, and writing in the classroom. Teachers foster early literacy development by reading to children daily, by providing guided reading, writing, and representing activities from the first day of school, and by actively promoting literacy growth at a level appropriate to each childs development.
Reading at Home
Daily reading at home is a vital support to childrens literacy growth. Children who are read to at home, and who experience warm interactions around books with a caring parent, grandparent, guardian, or sibling, tend to develop positive attitudes toward reading. Discussion between parent and child about stories and illustrations enhances oral language development, comprehension of text, and a sense of story. The parent is, in this way, providing a scaffold, or support for the childs literacy learning, just as the teacher does in the classroom.
Teachers who show determination in developing and maintaining a home reading program, and who provide regular information to parents about good books, useful strategies, and their childrens progress, are adding to their students literacy growth in immeasurable ways. This home-school partnership that begins in the early years is vital to childrens literacy development throughout the school years.
Developmentally Appropriate Classroom Practice in the Early Years
Students identified as Early Years students range from four to ten years of age. Kindergarten students and most students in Grade 1 are considered emergent literacy learners. Students in Grade 4 (and some in Grade 3) are moving into a transitional stage in which they are beginning to acquire many of the characteristics of the Middle Years learner. In order to meet the developmental needs of all students in Early Years classrooms, it is essential that teachers understand how children at these ages learn. Recently revised guidelines from the National Association for the Education of Young Children (Bredekamp and Copple, 1997) indicate the importance of appropriate support for literacy development in authentic contexts in all early childhood classrooms.
Recognizing the connections among childrens social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development has led educators to the philosophy that children learn best when schools provide a democratic, caring community with high family involvement. Within this kind of community, children feel valued. They receive relevant and meaningful learning experiences. They are offered appropriate choices about their learning. The research and theories of the past decade on childrens development and learning have added to our knowledge of early literacy development and are reflected in this document.
Language Instruction and Cognitive Development
In the Early Years, there is dramatic growth in students listening, speaking, reading, and writing vocabulary. Most students move rapidly along a literacy continuum from pre-conventional (emergent) literacy to independence in reading, writing, viewing, and representing. An increased vocabulary and growing ability to consider other points of view greatly increase students oral and written communications skills. Their speech becomes more fluent, and they are capable of interactive, reciprocal conversations with teachers and peers.By conversing with students, teachers extend and expand their conversations. Teachers can facilitate discussions among students by encouraging them to express their opinions, ideas, and feelings. These social interactions play an important role in learning. Conversing about their learning strengthens students abilities to express themselves, to construct meaning, to reason, and to solve problems. As they gain a greater control of language, children use it to think and to influence others thinking. Teachers demonstrate respect for students ideas by listening and responding attentively to them. It is important to provide small and large group activities in which students listen actively to peers, ask and respond to questions, in order to extend their developing communication skills and facilitate their cognitive development.

Seen @ Band of Doodlers' Seven Deadly SINs (Strength In Numbers) - Now On at Capitol Piazza (Basement 2) til September 25th
Visiting the SEVEN DEADLY SINS (Strength In Numbers) exhibition at Capitol Piazza (recently renovated Captiol Theatre venue along Stamford Road, Singapore), one is surrounded and confronted by the 7 Deadly Sins that plague humanity, and you'd be in a minor state of art nirvana by the end of the experience!
Since blogging about it, I could not wait to check out the exhibition! Shown here are some snaps I had taken (MORE on Facebook), and my impressions, to share :)
Flanking the left and right of the gallery space, are seven deadly sins embodies by illustrations, split down the middle by a hand-drawn carpet; a "River of Doodlon", if you will, leading to the Band of Doodlers table-"altar", where a workshop was being held, the Saturday morning I visited the exhibition.
Ben AKA KedTwo (IG @kedtwo) was conducting a workshop sharing the basics of calligraphy, while Chief BODoodler Mas Shafreen AKA WantonDoodle was also on hand, busy filming the workshop himself - truly a DIY hands-on endeavour for this 3-years-strong collective. Inspiring.
Mas had shared that out of over 200 entries, 70 youth artists were picked for this showcase - each 10 were in turn mentored by 7 x youth mentors who each had a "Sin", by which their artwork told "the story of how individual trespasses can get in the way of achieving our goals and aspirations."
PRIDE: …a feeling of deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of one's close associates, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired."
ENVY: "…a feeling of discontented or resentful longing aroused by someone else's possessions, qualities, or luck."
WRATH: "…extreme anger."
The 7 BOD Artist Mentors are:
- Candice Phang AKA Puffingmuffin (IG @puffingmuffin) for GREED,
- Raihana Abdul Rahim AKA "3EYEBODIES" (IG @araikreva) for LUST
- Pratama Eka Dharma AKA Pedmons for PRIDE (IG @pedmons)
- Teressa Ong (chopsticksroad.tumblr.com / IG @chopsticksroad) for SLOTH
- Nur Aida Sa'ad AKA yellowmushmellow (IG @yellowmushmellow) for GLUTTONY
- Edison Teo AKA Galactik Captain (IG galactikcaptain) for WRATH
- Epiphany Becomes An Obsession AKA EBAO (IG @ebao_art) for ENVY
GLUTTONY: "…habitual greed or excess in eating."
LUST: …strong sexual desire."
SLOTH: "…reluctance to work or make an effort; laziness."
GREED: "…intense and selfish desire for something, especially wealth, power, or food."
If you haven't noticed by now, the individual panels
dividing the "SINs" were actually hand-doodled on the panel
surface directly by the team corresponding with the "Sin"!
Featured below are just some of my select artworks which caught my eye, as snapped at the show and Instagrammed! (*FYI: These are not all full shots of the artwork! You'd have to go see them in person for yourselves :p)
Looking at the images on show, you'd wish some of them were made prints for sale, but unlike previous BOD shows, these were not the case here, as the one-of-one artwork were purely for "showcase" purposes. Folks who attended the show opening last Friday night (Aug 26th) had groovy BOD enamel pins and an abundance of badges to squirrel away with.
Powered by NOISE Singapore, this is a culmination of a month long "Doodle Fiesta" (1st - 31 July) with "Scen Deadly SINs" exhibiting thru September 25th, 2016. Folks interested to join the collective of White Space Bandits are to enquire via "email@example.com", and you can stay connected via their bandofdoodlers.com / www.facebook.com/bandofdoodlers / Instagram @bandofdoodlers and shop via shop.bandofdoodlers.com

There's just something about summer that makes me want to cook. This is sooooooomewhat unusual because my hubz actually does 98.9% of the cooking. (I take care of the baking.) However, in the summer there is so much wonderful fresh fruit and veggies everywhere that I can't help but get inspired. I also really like "light" meals, so summer is purrrrrrrrrfect!
Anyway, I finally had a chance this week to get started on some new recipes I have been dying to try. Saturday night we gave Balsamic Pasta a whirl, and it was fantastic.(I used the that comes up from the link, but I used cheese ravioli.) Afterward, I told the hubz it was my new favorite meal...he responded with, "Really? Favorite? Just like that? It surpasses every other good meal you have EVER had?" I combated with a solid, "YUP!" You should definitely try it.
Last night, we tried this recipe. We really like it, too. In fact, Mr. Critical aka...hubz...even commented, " This dressing is really good." This is monumental because he's kind of a foodie.
|1/2 cup(s) salsa
|1/4 cup(s) red onion(s), chopped
|2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, chopped
|1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
|1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
|1 tsp Dijon Mustard
|1/4 tsp table salt
|1 pound(s) Chicken, breast, raw, without skin & bone, 4 (1⁄4-pound) halves
|1 Tbsp Cajun seasoning
|1 tsp olive oil
|4 cup(s) mixed greens, salad blend
|1 medium sweet red pepper(s), seeded and thinly sliced
|1 item(s) (medium) bell pepper(s), yellow variety, seeded and thinly sliced
|1 medium tomato(es), chopped
|1/2 medium avocado, peeled and chopped
- To make the salsa vinaigrette, puree the salsa, onion, cilantro, lime juice, vinegar, mustard, and salt in a food processor or blender; set aside.
- Sprinkle both sides of the chicken breasts with the Cajun seasoning. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until lightly browned and cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board. Let stand 5 minutes, and slice into 1⁄2-inch-wide strips.
- Place the salad greens and bell peppers in a large bowl. Top with the chicken, tomato, and avocado. Serve with the vinaigrette on the side. Yields one piece of chicken per serving.

Up the hill from our house, the Clwydians were bright in the sun. It takes half an hour to get to the top, walking first a lane and then a rough track, gaining height with every step.
On a clear day you can see forever, across to Snowdonia and right down the Vale of Clwyd to the sea. Yesterday was as clear as could be, with tiny puffs of riding cloud.
See what the wind does up here. It was still and calm as we came out onto the top but the hawthorn tree is always windblown, sculpted by the wind so that it leans away from the imagined gale even on the stillest day.
We walked out along the Clwydian Way, hugging the side of hill below the ridge, looking out across the Vale.
Up here you need to be hardy, although these cattle looked rather teddy bear-like close up.
Can you get any hardier than this little holly, growing determinedly in the top of a gate post? One day the post will rot away and there will be a tree in its place, even after the metal gate has fallen.
There are sheep up here too although I don't think they should be on our side of the fence. As Ian approached them they skittered away, their little black ears held upright and their black tails swinging.
And all the way along the track, this view spreading out and away under the sun. Black crows flew and sparrows fluttered in the hawthorns.
The walk changes. We left the Clwydian Way and headed off up into Llangwyfan Forest, walking between towering pines which cling to the hillside.
At the top of the track you look across to Moel Arthur, one of a string of Iron Age hillforts along the ridge. I love the moment when you leave the trees behind and see the bare hills spreading away along southwards towards Llangollen.
You can just see the dome of Moel Arthur, the dark heathery smudge on the summit of the hill across the valley.
Reach the little car park below Moel Arthur and then start to climb, following the Offa's Dyke Path. This path runs the length of Wales from Chepstow in the South to Prestatyn in the North. I walked it all a few years ago and loved it all but the section which tramps across our hills is one of the best bits. Call me biased if you like. It is very near home!
And now we had turned back North and we were walking home, up high on Penycloddiau, with the springy turf under our feet and the views spreading out on either side: west to Snowdonia and east to the Dee Estuary and, on a day as clear and diamond bright as this, all the way to Liverpool.
Mum would have been glad to know we were out together in the sun, watching the buzzards soar, looking to this day.

Cottage furniture, mass-produced type of furniture popular in the United States in the mid-19th century. In The Architecture of Country Houses (1850), A.J. Downing recommended it for use in rural surroundings and favoured in particular the work of Edward Hennessy of Boston. He pointed out that a complete bedroom suite in this style could be purchased for the price of a mahogany wardrobe.
Cottage furniture was usually of softwood painted white, gray, lilac, or pale blue and sometimes decorated with floral motifs. The style often featured turned legs (i.e., legs shaped on a lathe), split spindles, and other hallmarks of earlier periods. Turned furniture of this type was also called "Jenny Lind," in honour of the famous Swedish soprano Jenny Lind, whose American concert tour with the American showman P.T. Barnum during the period of this style's introduction made her name widely familiar.

Musical chairs this morning at CCHQ as Cameron shuffled his team in what many are arguing to be the most significant change since he took the reigns at the last leadership election.
The big news is of course Ken Clarke, an interesting move but a solid one – he's a heavy hitter with a good grasp of the economy and an excellent style that'll hopefully be used to the party's advantage against the snake–tongue of the non–elected business secretary in these most difficult of times for businesses in the UK. Moving Therasa May to shadow work and pensions is a clever move that'll again use a solid parliamentarian to best effect, as is the move of Eric Pickles to chair. Others (Iain, Guido, ConHome and more) have covered the reshuffle in more detail, so I'm not going to go into any real detail other than to say I'm satisfied that we're seeing positive action on the front benches.
Of course there are things that still need to be done, but I think they are more organisational than people orientated – it's clear that CCHQ still needs better news monitoring and quicker reaction from appropriate shadow's to introduce all of the faces to the public, but with Eric Pickles' taking the chair I can't help but think that these back office reforms will be swiftly implemented.

Luke 9:23 ~ "If any man is to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily and follow Me."
We are to carry our crosses each day - whatever burdens that may entail...
hmm... :/
How are we to do that?
After all, we are but human and are not strong enough to carry all these fears, doubts and temptations.
Who ya gonna call?
The one who has done it before!
He know the way, He has been there-done that, had to carry the cross for the whole world!
He is strong enough to carry the weight-no matter how heavy it is. All we have to do is ask for His help and guidance. Let Him know we aren't going to be able to do - that we need His help, and He will come rushing in.
He will be there to teach us how to carry it - and - in the time we aren't strong enough, carry it for us.
He's a pro!

Wexford students show their class in SPAR FAI Primary School 5s County Finals Day
Ferrycarrig Park played host to the Wexford County Final of the SPAR FAI Primary School 5s programme on Wednesday last, April 5.
The SPAR FAI Primary School 5s programme has seen participation figures grow year on year to become the largest primary schools' competition in the country. 238 students, 30 teams from 23 schools participated in the Wexford County Final with 12 schools progressing to the regional finals.
The 'A' Cup, open to boys and/or mixed teams from small schools, had 6 passionate schools with the final between the talented Ballythomas NS and St. Fintan's NS. It was St. Fintan's who finallytriumphed in what was a thrilling contest after a 1-1 draw in normal time led to a penalty shoot-out that saw the Mayglass boys hold their nerve a little better to win on a 3-1 score line.
The 'B' Cup, for medium sized schools, again proved to be a compelling division with 5 teams involved. Poulfur NS proved the strongest team in this section, with Castlebridge NS finishing as runners up in a hotly contested final where a late goal secured victory on a 2-0 score line for Poulfur.
The 'C' Cup, for large schools, was another hard fought contest between 5 very talented schools. Scoil Mhuire, Coolcotts eventually came out on top of the large schools division after it took penalties to decide a winner between them and St. Joseph's PS, Gorey.
The winners will now progress to the South Leinster Finalson April 25 in Bunclody AFC.
Participation in the girls division of the SPAR FAI Primary School 5s programme reached an all-time high this year with 11,272 4th, 5th and 6th class girls registered nationwide.
The Girls 'A', 'B' and 'C' Cup finals were also held on the same day in the same venuewhere there was a fantastic atmosphere throughout the competition.
In the Girls 'A' Cup, for small schools, St. Fintan's NS, from Mayglass completed the County double defeating Ballyellis NS in a really exciting and hard fought match which ended with St. Fintan's scoring the solitary goal of the game.
In the Girls 'B' Cup final, for medium sized schools, Ballycanew NS sealed qualification to the next stage after they overcame a tough challenge from Our Lady of Lourdes NS, Bunclody on a 3-0 score line.
Bunscoil Loreto from Gorey put in a fine display to progress from the Girls 'C' Cup division for large schools and look in fine form heading into the South Leinster Finals. Scoil Mhuire from Coolcotts finished as close runners up in this division.
The SPAR FAI Primary School 5s Programme competition has been in existence since the mid 1990's and has 28,256 participants from 1,483 schools involved this year, a 19% surge from last year.
The competition is run across six divisions, ensuring that schools of all sizes are catered for. Boys and girls are encouraged to play together but there is a separate competition for boys and girls dependent on school enrolment numbers.
Fergus McDaid, Secretary of FAI Schools stated, "This is our third year with title sponsors SPAR and the competition has grown yet again and now firmly holds the title of the largest primary schools' competition in the country. SPAR's ongoing support, both nationally and at a local level, has ensured the ongoing success of the programme and given Wexford children an opportunity to get involved in a professionally-run, fun and inclusive programme. The programme encourages children to become involved in soccer at an early age and emphasizes the fun aspect of the sport. FAI Schools look forward to welcoming schools to the National Finals on Wednesday, May 31 in the Aviva Stadium, Dublin. We would also like to extend our thanks to all schools who have participated in 2017".
Colin Donnelly, SPAR Sales Director said, "As a community based retailer, SPAR encourages a healthy and active lifestyle and is proud to be a supporter of primary schools' soccer in association with the FAI. SPAR local retailers around the county have been getting behind the SPAR FAI Primary School 5s programme, which encourages children to get involved in soccer in a fun, safe and inclusive environment."

Happy Monday!
Welcome to a new LNS Challenge. The challenge for the next two weeks is all about ribbon.
For my DT sample, I made a gift bag with ribbon for handles:
Instructions for making bag:
Cut a piece of DSP 6 x 7. With the 6" side along the top of your paper cutter or score board, score at 1 1/2.
With the 7" side along the top, score at 1/2, 1 1/4*, 2, 5, 5 3/4*, and 6 1/2. *Please note, the 1 1/4 and 5 3/4 score lines only get scored down 3 1/2, not the entire length. You will then score diagonally to the bottom score line.
Here is a visual to help:
Remove two bottom corners. Cut the two score lines from bottom up to cross score line.
Cut a second piece of DSP 6 x 3 and score at 1 1/2. This will be the back piece of the gift bag.
Now it's time to visit the LNS Blog to see what the rest of the DT created.
There are so many ways to use ribbon. We would like to see what you do with your ribbon. You have until Sunday evening, April 20 to link your card, L/O, or 3D project.
Thanks for stopping by!
Supplies used: Old Olive and Whisper White CS, Polka Dot Parade DSP, Rich Razzleberry Ink, Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon, Baker's Twine, Doily, Pearls, Little Leaves Sizzlet, 7/8" Scallop Circle, Petite Petals, and Scallop Edge Border Punches, and A Round Array and Petite Petals Stamp Sets.

Let me set this up for you..... I am feeling a little like exploring the internet and doing a bit of retail therapy last weekend....I ordered some CC and WDW threads from my new favorite internet shop - 1-2-3-Stitch! Woot Woot! for them. (I have ordered from online shops before and it seems whatever I order is backordered. I mean really, why is it on your website if you don't have it. I darn near live in the stitching supply dessert!) In like two days my items were here....except for one Crescent Color - Black Coffee. Two days later another package from 1-2-3 Stitch and because I KNEW it was the Black Coffee floss, I let the package just sit on the counter until tonight when I got in from work. Imagine my surprise, my delight, my heart skip a beat when this is what I pulled out.
I feel like Sally Field when she won her second Oscar.......someone likes me! I'd like to thank the Motion Picture Academy and everyone at my Delaware Guild and my friends at my NJ Guild and my Thursday night stitching pals who are just the best group ever and have encouraged me along the way. And my long distant stitching friends and all the people who have supported this crazy pastime of mine and made this moment possible. Just know that every stitch I take when I work on this will be filled with a feeling of love, fulfillment and warmth and when finished this piece will forever be special to me! I can't wait to start it.
I always start a new project on New Year's Day so I better get to ordering the linen and floss. And I'd better get stitching to get some WIP's and SAL's closer to completion so I can reward myself with the new start!
Have a great weekend everyone. I know I will because anytime I am feeling even the slightest bit stressed or tired or just randomly throughout the day, I will remember the anonymous kindness and that I was special to someone! I just might go out and do some RAK myself this weekend and pay it forward! Better reign myself in before I go picking up the grocery bill of someone in line at the Acme.

No, it's not an interstitial – but almost. Have you ever measured the dwell time on a social networking portal entry page? Not much, especially not if you are a frequent visitor. Your focus is on typing your password correctly – and after hitting enter that's it, you are in and entry page is gone.
Now, you may play around with the message reflecting on the only activity you do on an entry page and that may grab the visitor's attention but placing any contextless game there is a waste of money. Lot of money. Next time, don't just buy a very remarkable and expensive ad space, take the time and think about what you are placing there.

You may have to upgrade your Linux kernel in order to use the DRI. This is because you need a kernel version which supports AGP. Building a new Linux kernel can be difficult for beginners but there are resources on the Internet to help. This document assumes experience with configuring, building and installing Linux kernels.
Linux kernels can be downloaded from www.kernel.org
Download the needed kernel and put it in /usr/src. Create a directory for the source and unpack it. For example:
cd /usr/src rm -f linux mkdir linux-2.3.51 ln -s linux-2.3.51 linux bzcat linux-2.3.51.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
Now configure your kernel.
You might, for example, use
make menuconfig and do the
It's recommended that you turn on MTRRs under Processor type and Features, but not required.
Configure the rest of the kernel as required for your system (i.e. Ethernet, SCSI, etc)
Exit, saving your kernel configuration.
Edit your /etc/lilo.conf file. Make sure you have an image entry as follows (or similar):
image=/boot/vmlinuz label=linux.2.3.51 read-only root=/dev/hda1
The important part is that you have /boot/vmlinuz without a trailing version number. If this is the first entry in your /etc/lilo.conf AND you haven't set a default, then this will be your default kernel.
Now compile the new kernel:
cd /usr/src/linux-2.3.51 make dep ; make bzImage make modules ; make modules_install make installNote that the final part, make install, will automatically run lilo for you.
Now reboot to use this new kernel.
