Amerano Shirt Review
It has been a while since we wrote a shirt review. Today, I want to introduce you to Amerano, a young German company that started not even a year ago but is already offering "custom" shirts, suits and accessories.
History of Amerano
Amerano was founded in late 2011 in Berlin, Germany by two graduates of WHU, one of Germany's best business schools. Founders Just Beyer and Sebastian Bourmer copied, for the most part, from J. Hilburn's concept, in the sense that the distribution network is built on a sales force and showrooms. To keep logistics manageable, they decided to produce everything in Europe. When I first spoke to a representative of the brand, they were just offering shirts, but now they have also expanded into suits, sweaters, trousers, ties & other accessories. Since I have not seen these other items, I can't speak to the quality and workmanship quite yet. Within just a few months, they managed to open seven locations in Germany as well as an outpost in Vienna, which is quite remarkable in my opinion.
Fabrics & Ordering
In terms of shirting fabrics, Amerano offers a selection of about 350 fabrics from Tessitura Monti and Thomas Mason / Albini . While this is more than many other suppliers, it is certainly less than mytailor.com. In regard to quality, these fabrics are decent and a good industry standard, so you won't have to deal with any surprises here. Also, I particularly like the fact that every fabric is shown with the exact weight – you will know what to expect.
Amerano offered to provide me with a shirt for review and I chose a widely woven Oxford cloth in blue and white from Thomas Mason, which retails for almost 130 €. The quality fabric was nice and thick as expected, and after a few washes it still looks great. Of course, due to the wide weave, pointy objects or rough fingernails will likely catch a thread or two, but this is not owed to the quality of the fabric. If you are interested in a shirt that will last a long time, this kind of weave is not for you. However, if you already have a number of shirts in rotation and you want something slightly different, this may be a good choice.
The order process works just like J. Hilburn, in which you are actually measured by somebody who was trained to do so by Amerano. Since I was in the US and I could not see one of their reps, I provided them with shirt measurements as well as pictures of me – as I have done with all other manufacturers I've reviewed shirts from.
1st Shirt
The first shirt arrived roughly 4 weeks after I had ordered it and unfortunately, it had a number of flaws. First of all, the general fit was quite poor; my sloping shoulders and hourglass figure were not considered properly in the cut, which lead to a lot of wrinkles on the body. The cuff was 2/5 inch too tight, so I could not button it! In addition, the machine stitched monogram was placed on the cuff and not on the chest as requested. Finally, I felt a bit constricted overall.
The machine made buttonholes were of average quality, but the mother of pearl buttons were sewn on by hand and had great lustre & thickness. The glued interlining felt nice but the
double needle stitch side seam along the sleeves and sides is definitely too little for a $160 shirt. The yoke was cut in one piece, and so it was not surprising to see that the shirt's shoulders fit poorly. Apart from that, the seams were straight and the button down collar a bit short, but I could have asked for a bigger one.
Although the buttons were the best that I have seen so far among all shirts tested, the poor fit and sub-prime workmanship outweighed the pros in this shirt.
2nd Shirt
I voiced my concerns and offered to have it sent back. During a friendly phone conversation I was told that the shirt would be remade and that I could keep the old one or donate it. In terms of service, they did their best to resolve my issues.
Another 4 weeks (and a phone call) later, I received the second shirt. This time, the overall fit was better but by no means perfect. While the cuffs were the proper size now, the underarms were tailored too tight, once again duplicating the unpleasant feeling of constriction when wearing it. There were definitely fewer wrinkles on my body, but still a few on the shoulders. The monogram was in the correct position this time but the collar was missing buttonholes and buttons. Not only was this erroneous, but the collar failed to stand up at all, and since
button- down collars are always tailored without collar stays I could not even make my own adjustment by adding weight to the collar tips. Overall, this flaw made the shirt once again unusable because the collar looks just wrong and there is no way to fix it. At this point, I contacted them again and they admitted that the fault was in their production.
At their expense, they offered to have me visit a local tailor who would then add buttonholes and buttons. Personally, I was not happy with this solution because it would require me to find similar buttons and an alterations tailor that had a buttonhole machine that makes similar buttonholes – which is virtually impossible. In addition, despite their offer to pay, such a trip would still require my time and follow up to reach a resolution.
They then offered to redo the shirt, but first they requested that I write an honest review about the process so far, which I found hopeful because they are not trying to hide their mistake but rather sought to improve. In terms of service, they are good. However, if the product is repeatedly flawed, the best service does not really help, especially if you need a shirt for a certain purpose.
General Impressions
The website, logistics, sourcing , service and marketing skills all seem to be very good with Amerano. They produce at the Emanuel Berg facilities in Eastern Europe which have been around for years. So as far as that goes, they are well organized.
However, from my experience and my conversations with the Amerano staff, I can say that they just don't know much about shirts. For example, when I asked about different interlining options, I was told by a staff member of the product development team that they had tried horse hair canvas as a shirt interlining but discontinued it because clients would not be able to iron it. I am fairly sure they were the first people ever to use horse hair as a shirt interlining, because it is only suited for jackets of overcoats, and even then it is blended with other fibers.
Also in terms of the cut of certain shirtmaking techniques, they seemed completely surprised. While the general public may be easily pleased with good service and a customized shirt that fits maybe a bit better than off the rack, men with some custom shirt experience will immediately notices the flaws in the shirts.
Considering my experience thus far, I cannot recommend Amerano shirts to those looking for a well fitting made to measure shirt, especially not on a deadline. There are simply a lot of other providers out there who offer better shirts. However, if you don't care about the fit and workmanship in a shirt but you like nice mother of pearl buttons, appreciate good, personal service and don't mind paying for it, you should take a look at Amerano.

Bojutsu is the art of the long staff (6ft./189cm.). Our bojutsu techniques are based on the old methods of Japan, those of Ryukyu Kobudo (Okinawan classical arts) as well as original techniques devised by Obata Kaiso. Bojutsu requires extensive twisting of the body, so students develop softer and more flexible shoulder and hip movements that are useful for and complementary to their Shinkendo training.
Furthermore, in learning how to use a longer range weapon like the bo, students will concurrently have a better understanding of the use of a medium range weapon, like the sword. In learning to handle a variety of weapons in your training, one will have the advantage of understanding the strengths, limitations and function of each and how to best apply them in any given situation.
The bojutsu curriculum consists of Suburi (Bo swinging exercises, body movement and footwork), Kata (Solo forms), and Kumibo (paired attacking/defending drills). Students learning bojutsu at Shinkendo Athens will notice a marked difference in the methods used to handle the bo in comparison to the style of bojutsu commonly taught at other schools. This is because the handling basics of the bo are the same as the basics for handling the Yari (spear) and Naginata (glaive) and are applied as such.

Year 1 Eco-Park Visit
This week year 1, as part of our science topic 'Seasons', visited our local eco-park.
Guy took us on a tour of the Eco-park and we were looking out for early signs of spring.
The first sign we came across was the Catkins growing on the Hazel trees.
Further along our tour we spotted Snowdrops and Bluebells beginning to sprout.
Towards the end of our tour in the flower beds we saw our fourth and final sign of spring Primrose flowers.
Then we had the chance to sketch and label all the things we saw on our tour to take back for our classroom display.

A world away, Brandeis rabbi practices what she preaches
Last month Rabbi Elyse Winick '86 left the familiar comforts of Brandeis' Multifaith Chaplaincy to learn from NGOs fighting for civil, political, and gender and sexual-health rights in the Dominican Republic.
She made the trip with 10 rabbinic fellows and the American Jewish World Service.
"It was a powerful experience on so many levels," Winick said. "The world is a very broken place. At the beginning of the trip I found that idea to be overwhelming, but by the end I realized that we can't do it all."
Dominicans of Haitian descent gave the rabbis firsthand accounts of daily governmental discrimination — from the threat of deportation to being forced to work under the table. It reminded Winick of the work that needs to be done in combatting racism in America.
Still, problems in one's own backyard are never a reason not to help in far-flung places, she said.
"I realized halfway through my trip what an important role we were playing. "The United States has the power to lead other countries and be a force for good," she said. "It's not about Americans coming in and telling people what to do, but listening and helping citizens achieve their goals."
Winick left the Dominican Republic with a heavy heart, yet comforted by Jewish wisdom. "In the Mishnah there is a statement attributed to Rabbi Tarfon which states that though work is not yours to finish, you are still not free from doing your part," she said.
"I want to practice what I preach and be a model for others, because we learn more by seeing than through being told what to do."

|Photo from Etude House
CC Cream is basically a diluted with moisturizer version of the BB cream. So all you need to do is mix your moisturizer with your foundation/BB cream. Moisturizer that contains SPF is preferred.
You need your favorite/suitable for your skin type moisturizer cream
and... your favorite/suitable for skin type/tone foundation/BB cream!
I'm going to use Vitamin C moisturizer from The Body Shop with Cats Wink Foundation from TonyMoly
|1:1 ratio but you can mix more moisturizer if you want it to have lighter feeling on skin
Covered my pores and semi-covered my acne scars. It feels light like I'm not wearing any foundation plus my skin feels like it can breath. I can't show you my full photo because I've been sick and my nose is flaky and dry (because of my runny nose).
The benefits of making your own:
- You can use the correct shade foundation and kind. For example, use foundation with matte finish for oily skin.
- Pick the moisturizer that is right for you.
- Higher coverage than actual CC cream.


text: Official statistics showed that Chinese enterprises conducted 438 overseas merger and acquisition transactions in 2016, with a total volume of US$215.8 billion – mostly funded by bank loans. Since November, 2016, however, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange required that any overseas M&A transactions larger than US$5 million dollars have to be approved first – the previous threshold was US$50 million. What's more, favorite investment areas for Chinese enterprises including the film and entertainment industry, football clubs and real estate programs were virtually halted in early 2017. From January to May 2017, Chinese enterprises have invested in 145 countries and regions with a volume of nearly US$35 billion, a 53 percent decrease year on year. It is increasingly difficult to make a profit through overseas M&A and some enterprises are allegedly transferring assets overseas under the guise of M&A, a method which government agencies are struggling to oversee and regulate.

, he said.Courturier evened the score with his 10th#1
HOUSTON -- Houston rookie George Springer has had a month to remember. And hes not about to let up. Springer hit a tiebreaking two-run homer in the seventh inning, and the Astros extended their winning streak to six with a 3-1 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Springers shot to left off Preston Guilmet (0-1) extended the rookies hitting streak to 11 games and was his seventh homer in his last seven games. The shot barely got over the left field wall. "I was screaming at it," Springer said. "I was saying Go, go, go and it went. So thank you, baseball." Springers 10 home runs in May extended his Astros rookie record and tied him for the third most long balls by a rookie in May with Jose Canseco, Wally Joyner and Walt Dropo. Mark McGwire set the rookie record for home runs in May with 15 in 1987. "What a guy," Houston manager Bo Porter said of Springer. "Its been pretty impressive. Its fun to watch. Its almost must-see TV." Springer said he was happy to help the Astros continue winning and gave a lot of credit to the man hitting before him in the lineup, Jose Altuve, who had three hits. "The guy thats on base, and its always Jose Altuve," Springer said of his late game poise. "Hes always on base, and with him on base, I understand that hes a threat. With him on base, if they miss, I have to hit it." Springer became the first Astros rookie to hit seven home runs in seven games and first Houston player to do it since Morgan Ensberg in 2006. Ensberg, however, hit his seven home runs over a six-game span. "Hes an exciting player," Porter said. "At any moment, he can change the game with one swing. It doesnt matter if hes 0 for 3 or 3 for 3, he has the ability to impact the game every time he steps into the batters box." Brad Peacock allowed a run on six hits with eight strikeouts in six innings. Peacock, who was scratched prior to his scheduled start May 24 at Seattle with forearm soreness, went six innings for the fifth straight start. Porter said it was the best Peacock had pitched all season. Peacock said it was the best he had felt all year, and he was able to locate his pitches. "I went out there, I wasnt scared," Peacock said. "I threw my fastball, the team came up with some big plays. Springer got the homer and the team got the win. Thats all you can ask for." Josh Fields (1-3) threw two scoreless innings for the win, and Chad Qualls pitched the ninth for his fourth save. Ubaldo Jimenez allowed one run on three hits with eight strikeouts in six innings. Jimenez had struggled in his last two outings, allowing 10 runs in nine innings. "I was able to get a little bit deeper in the game and thats always good," Jimenez said. "Hopefully I get deeper than that in my next game. I felt good. I was able to be there for the team." Houston could not take capitalize with runners in scoring position, going 0 for 11 against Jimenez and finishing 1 for 15 with runners in scoring position with the lone hit being Springers home run. Nelson Cruz remained hot, extending his hit streak to 10 games with two hits, including an RBI single in the fourth that tied it at 1. The Orioles losing streak reached three games. "Its not always going to click together," Baltimore manager Buck Showalter said of the Orioles inconsistency of late. "Youre hoping one part of the game is good enough to offset another and we have for the most part. I have a lot of confidence that our best baseball is ahead of us. Tonight we just didnt swing the bats well enough Ubaldo deserved a better fate." Jason Castro scored from third on a wild pitch by Jimenez in the second on a close play at the plate to make it 1-0. After a 4 minute, 25 second review, the call was upheld -- Castro was safe. Jimenez, who had loaded the bases with one out on two walks and a single before Castro scored, escaped the inning by inducing groundouts to Robbie Grossman and Jonathan Villar. NOTES: Baltimore right-hander Tommy Hunter, on the 15-day disabled list retroactive to May 21 with a left groin strain, has been throwing on flat ground for four days and feels good, Showalter said. ... Orioles catcher Matt Wieters, on the 15-day DL since May 11 with a right elbow strain, is expected to start doing light tossing Friday, Showalter said. ... Houston will send lefty Brett Oberholtzer to the mound Friday against Baltimore right-hander Miguel Gonzalez in the annual Major League Baseball Civil Rights Game. There was a roundtable discussion Thursday and there will be a Beacon Awards Luncheon Friday. The Astros will wear the uniform of the Houston Eagles and the Orioles will wear the uniform of the Baltimore Elite Giants of the Negro Leagues for the game. Thomas Meunier Jersey .

They had their first shootout win since 2013 against Ottawa on Tuesday. R.J. Umberger and Sean Courturier also scored for the Flyers.Voracek leads the league with 33 assists and his 49 points are just 13 shy of matching a career best.Im not sure that he really thinks about being the top scorer in the league, coach Craig Berube said. He wants to win hockey games.Voracek needs to help the Flyers win more, fast.The Flyers entered Thursday nine points behind the Boston Bruins for the final Eastern Conference playoff spot and play eight of their next 11 games at home as they make that crucial push for contention.These next 20 games mean a lot, Umberger said. If you get into March and youre nine points out, youre in trouble. We need to make up a lot of ground here in the next 20 games.Alex Ovechkin and Karl Alzner scored for the Capitals, who twice blew one-goal leads.Alzner put the Capitals ahead 2-1 early in the third on a shot from the left point that appeared to skim off Ovechkin and into the net. After a lengthy review on a potential high stick call on Ovechkin, the goal stood and the Caps went up 2-1.Alzners fourth goal of the season is just three shy of matching his career total in six seasons coming into this one.Washingtons celebration was short lived.Umberger, the overpriced and unproductive centre, gave Flyers fans a rare chance to cheer for him when he slid hard on his left knee and pounded home a rebound off the boards to make it 2-all.Braden Holtby started a Washington goalie-record 17th straight game and played in his 23rd straight overall. Holtby had 31 saves in Washingtons 6-2 win Wednesday against Toronto and was strong in his second start in as many nights.I think itss tougher for all guys, everyone, Holtby said.dddddddddddd No different for goalies than anyone else. You just mentally prepare a little different, might not be quite as extra energy as some nights.Coach Barry Trotz brushed off a question before the game about analytics data showing goalies should not start both games in back-to-backs.Everyone throws them toward me, Trotz said. Theres a place for analytics, but theres also a place for the old eyeball test.Holtby had 31 saves — just not the big one against Voracek.We stuck with it. Its hard to do in the position we are, Voracek said.Steve Mason, who left Wednesdays practice early with soreness, stopped 26 shots.Ovechkin does what Ovechkin does against the Flyers, scoring his whopping 28th goal in 34 career games against them. Mason never had a chance once Ovechkin fired from the left circle for a power-play goal 3:08 into the game. Ovechkin scored his 21st goal of the season and now has one in five straight games. Ovechkin last scored goals in five straight games in March 2013.But he had little help the rest of the way.Maybe it was just our mentality thinking this was going to be an easy game, he said.Courturier evened the score with his 10th goal of the season midway through the period, punching in the puck after it bounced off a couple of players in front of the net.The Flyers left the period down a defenceman after Nicklas Grossmann suffered an upper-body injury and did not return. Grossmanns right shoulder was slammed into the boards and he was slow to his feet. He was checked by a Flyers trainer and helped off the ice.Grossmann had eight points on the season and played in all 40 games.NOTES: The Flyers played the Capitals for the first of four times this season and for the 200th time in the series. ... The game featured a Braydon (Coburn), a Brayden (Schenn) and a Braden (Holtby). ... Trotz was cut by a skate on his forehead when players when over the boards chasing the puck. My modeling career is out the door anyway, he said. ... Former Capitals G Wayne Stephenson played in 22 straight games in the 1979-80 season. ... Alzner scored two goals in 82 games last season.

Literacy Council begins ESL classes
Hello Readers,
Can you believe we are halfway through the season of summer? We are continuing our programs at the Literacy Council completing the Texas Summer Reading program at the Plainview Unger Library in June. The My Dad Reads to Me program allowed us to provide more than 70 books to RSVP for inmates at the Wheeler and Fornby Units to read and record a CD to send to their children.
School buses are getting their tune-ups and school supplies are displayed in all the stores.
The first day of school for the Hale County Literacy Council and for PISD is eight days away. Wayland Baptist University kicks off on Aug. 20, Plainview Christian Academy started last Thursday and South Plains College has been ongoing.
We have been very busy at the HCLC registering and giving placement tests to former Cargill plant employees and to local community adults for our upcoming ESL classes. Classes at the Literacy Center will be in session from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, Aug. 25-May 30.
HCLC is providing these classes through Work Force Solutions South Plains in accordance with the Trade Act Agreement. The total program offers adult students who become proficient in ESL the opportunity to go on to other providers for GED tutoring and instruction and, if they choose, to complete a vocational training program.
We are very excited to be a part of this opportunity to make a difference in so many lives in Plainview. Not only will it benefit those who need English skills, it will provide a more trainable workforce to fill existing jobs and help businesses to expand. Perhaps it's true — every time a door closes, many more will open.
Happy reading!
Lydia Castillo is director of the Hale County Literacy Council.

I live, work and raise my family in Kanata. I'm a politico, Liberal, lawyer, mom, wife, community leader & volunteer
My husband and I have two active and engaging boys who help ensure that we keep the important things in life at the top of our minds. They also provide the motivation for me to be involved with all the community work I do and for keeping engaged in politics. Every day I feel the obligation to participate in making sure Canada continues to be the wonderful place it is for them as they grow and raise their own families.
In 2007 and 2011 I was the candidate for the Ontario Liberal Party in Carleton – Mississippi Mills. Through two intense campaigns I learned both the depth of the obligation to speak for our community members and also the gift that it is to be in that position.
I am a business lawyer in Kanata and work closely with the business community on many projects and issues. Our family is tied to the high tech community in Ottawa through my husband's work as well as my own. I am a passionate advocate for the technology industry in Ottawa as well as across Canada and I hold strong beliefs about our need to invest more in education as well as bringing the brightest minds from around the world to settle in Canada.
I am very proud of my contribution to our community: I have always been active in whatever community I have lived in and Kanata has been no exception. My work in our community includes fundraising for our new Recreation Centre, assisting with Canada Day in Kanata, supporting the important work of the Youth Services Bureau of Ottawa and volunteering countless hours with local school committees. I pride myself on being a strong advocate for our community, not shying away from tackling difficult issues.

Nokia Astound
Nokia Astound
The Nokia Astound weighs 4.4 ounces and sits well in the hand, feeling lightweight but not cheap. It features a 3.5-inch AMOLED high-definition touch screen.
The 8-megapixel rear camera zooms smoothly and takes serviceable images and video. The battery is good for roughly a day of moderate Web cruising, email answering, map zooming and game playing.
Ovi Maps
Nokia's Ovi Maps offers a smooth interface, some impressive detailing work and navigation tools.
Symbian 3 boasts easy setup with email (the smartphone supports Exchange, AOL, Gmail, Yahoo, and a variety of POP and IMAP services).
The Astound's YouTube interface (accessible via built-in widget) is streamlined and clean, even if the videos themselves are sometimes grainy.
The Ovi Store offers a healthy collection of both name-brand and little-known apps (yes, Angry Birds is here). The storefront is relatively easy to navigate, and the apps themselves are hassle-free to download.
The Astound comes preloaded with the T-Mobile Store, 3D Wooden Labyrinth, Slacker streaming radio, YouTube, the Ovi Store and the game Fruit Ninja Lite.
The 680MHz processor with "a 3D graphics accelerator" is adequate for most users' needs.
Here is a look at the rear camera in action.
Symbian's virtual QWERTY keyboard features excessively tiny keys (even in landscape mode, but especially in portrait), but also supports Swype.
Excessive Menus
Symbian overstuffed its menus, which come with a bewildering array of options and often bury useful functionality a handful of screens in.
The Astound does make crystal-clear calls, however.

The puppies had their first outdoor adventure a couple of days ago and after the initial surprise of grass under their feet (you can see black collars reaction.... "I want to go back inside!") they started to wander about.
There's always a little human reassurance if you're feeling overwhelmed.
It makes you feel much braver.
All in all a great success. The weather is perfect right now for puppies to run around outside (with supervision of course) and explore.

The Secret of the Hidden Scrolls from WorthyKids/Ideals are books that your kids will be eager to read. I had Delbert read this series because it was at his age level.
About The Secret of the Hidden Scrolls Books
The Secret of the Hidden Scrolls Book One The Beginning is a book about how Peter, Mary, and their dog, Hank, go on adventures through time to learn how the world was created. The kids end up watching as the Earth is made. They have to solve the secret of the scroll in order to be taken back to our current time. If they don't do it in time then they are stuck in the past forever.
The Secret of the Hidden Scrolls Book Two Race to the Ark is the second book in this series. In this book, Peter, Mary, and Hank travel back to time to witness the story of Noah. They have to help Noah with the ark. They have to solve the secret scroll before the floodwaters come, can they do it?
My Review
Like I said, I had Delbert read these books. As you can see from his review above, he considers this book to be "one of the best books I have ever read." He gave it a 5-star review. By the way, we got the book report template from homeschoolgiveaways.com.
This series is designed for young kids that are able to read at a third-grade level and higher. Delbert reads at a fourth-grade level and found some of the words a bit tricky. Although, when I skimmed through the book, I really didn't see that many hard words in it.
I feel the storylines of these books are strong. Delbert could relate to the story because the main characters were drawn to look like they were close to the same age as him. The stories do not give a lot of excess fluff and boring details. Yet, at the same time, it gives enough details to paint a clear picture of what is being described.
The images throughout the book may be small, but they are full of details. They make it so that the reader can easily envision what is happening. They may not be colorful and bright, but that encourages my child to look at them more closely.
Overall, I would highly recommend these books to your kids. Each book is suggested to be sold for $6.99 a piece. You can buy them on Amazon and Barnes and Noble.

This week's session with guest lecturer, Rick Schwier provided some interesting insight into the history of educational technology and the role it has had in propelling the direction of learning.... As I was examining his slides of the "movers and shakers" of educational technology, I couldn't help but wonder if any of these individuals in the middle of their research realized that they were really shaking up and shaping education. I mean did they think... "Wow, this project is really going to blow everyone's socks off!"?
Another aspect of the discussion that caught my attention was when Rick explored common misconceptions about Educational Technology.... The three points that stuck with me included:
Computers can replace teachers
ET = Computers + Internet + Schools
The first misconception regarding computers replacing teachers is a joke. I think that anyone who has ever taught or been in a classroom, knows that this will not happen. Anyone who believes this, is just being argumentative and silly. I'm not even going to explore this misconception, it's so ridiculous. Sorry.
The second misconception that got me thinking was the DATA = KNOWLEDGE =UNDERSTANDING= WISDOM... So if this misconception is actually believed that would make computers super smart. Or perhaps the Internet super smart, as there is access to tons of data. Or that if a person can quote lots of facts it makes them individuals who are certainly wise. Well if you have ever watched the show, "Cheers" and heard of the character, "Cliff Clavin", you would know that the ability to know many useless facts definitely does not equal wisdom. So is this really a misconception? Did I not get the whole point?? In teaching we see evidence of true understanding everyday, with our students' ability to evaluate, analyze and synthesis information... (you know all the upper levels of Bloom's Taxonomy). So this would not be a misconception held by many educators.
The third misconception that educational technology is mainly just a combination of computers, the Internet and schools, is one misconception that is not so surprising. With so much pressure on schools and divisions to increase the number of devices to students, the argument as to what the device brand should be (Apple or Android), and whether or not we should rely on BYOT or BYOD - it seems like we kind of lose site of what effective integration is about.
Now don't get me wrong, in order to effectively allow students to explore digital learning they need to have the hardware and the infrastructure (wifi etc) in place to make it happen. But even when classrooms have all the technology they could ever dream of, it comes down to the teacher. How is he or she going to help students use the technology? How are they going to remove themselves from the role of the "Sage on the Stage" (sorry to be cliche) highlighting the bells and whistles of technology - to that of the facilitator guiding the student as they use digital tools to answer questions or collaborate? Divisions can't just supply the devices and expect that students will innately know what to do... or that teachers will know what to do with the students and those devices. There has to be a time for teachers to explore, take risks, collaborate and learn how to use the technology. Not to repeat something that has been stated so many times... but we need to look at the goals or outcomes for learning... then how the tools will help to achieve the outcomes. However, in order to make it happen, teachers need time. (Which is a currency always lacking in schools!) Time to plan, time to explore and time to collaborate with other teachers.
Educational technology is not just providing the infrastructure with devices. It's about creating communities of individuals who look at ways of using technology to bring education further than where it has been. Without sounding too Star-Trek like ...
Educational Technology is about boldly going where education has not gone before...
It's worth taking the risk to go boldly even if the journey might be treacherous!

While I was still dumbfounded by the disastrous news of the naval helicopter crash that was said to have been caused by an explosion on Saturday, 15th December 2012 in which the Governor of Kaduna State, Patrick Ibrahim Yakowa; a former Chief of Defence Staff and National Security Adviser, Andrew Owoye Azazi and four others were killed, I was dazed further by a decapitating post by a contact of mine on facebook: Aminu Gadzama, whose facebook photo albums are littered with pictures of him dressed in military combat uniform and fully armed, in training with other agents of destruction somewhere, posted the following on his facebook status: "One stone downs two birds, collateral damage avoided = intelligence warfare". What could be the logic of this? I would have ignored him if not for his previous pro-Gambari warmongering vituperations.
As a matter of logic, Aminu's statement means that he is applauding a military operation in which one enemy attack killed two targets with minimal destruction of lives and properties. To further buttress his point, he made another post on facebook in which he claimed that by the downing of the duo of Yakowa and Azazi, they have been able to show that they are a league of doers; and doers do not rant on the pages of newspaper but take the battle to their cowardly targets. These statements bring some questions to mind which the Nigerian Military Intelligence, the investigating teams set up by the President and the Navy must insist that he provides answers to in the bid to unravelling the immediate and remote causes of the helicopter explosion and the resultant death of two high profile allies of the President.
1. Is this a terrorist activity?
2. If so, is Boko Haram involved or is there another group unknown to Nigerian Intelligence?
3. Who masterminded it?
4. What is the idea behind it?
5. Who is the enemy in this war?
6. What role did Aminu Gadzama play?
7. Who are the next targets?
8. Where did Aminu Gadzama train as a combatant going by the pictures of him on his facebook photo album showing him in training; dressed in combat and fully armed?
It is a matter of urgent imperative that Aminu Gadzama is brought in for questioning as he might provide the missing link in this historic investigation. Some well known personalities including a former minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode have expressed outrage and condemnation over his remarks.
Without any doubt, this statement of Aminu when juxtaposed with the organised jubilation in Kaduna by elements from Northern Kaduna following the confirmation of the death of the late governor reveals the desperation with which Gambari despots want to perpetrate their hegemony and the disdain with which they hold non-Gambaris. It shows that they can go to any length to eliminate anyone who they consider an obstacle to their satanic born-to-rule project – a project that has seen them ruling the Nigerian State for 39 years since 1960....directly and through their puppets,proxies and collaborators.
Incidences like this are replete in history. Bashorun MKO Abiola and June 12 readily comes to mind. Not only was his election annulled, he was eliminated through incarceration and assassination. But for the intensive struggle of the masses through the National Democratic Alliance (NADECO) and other broad based organizations..... a southerner of Yoruba extraction would not have been made President.
General Matthew Olusegun Aremu Obasanjo was imposed as President on us even when he was overwhelmingly rejected. As their old friend, they expected him to hold brief for them for four years while they come back in 2003 to continue their dynastic rule. Hardly did they know that their hegemony was sustained with state power and the absence of that meant that they would have to compete for power with others as equals. Obasanjo continued beyond 2003 and humbled the Gambari oligarchy by making the less likely of them, Umaru Musa Yar'Adua to succeed him.
Nevertheless, death came knocking on the door. Unfortunately, the desperate oligarchy got it wrong when they openly despised Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and prevented him from acting as President. As expected, the democratic forces rose up to the occasion with several protests across the land demanding for the swearing in the VP. Ever since, the Gambaris through their spokesmen have made promises upon promises that they were going to make the Nigerian State ungovernable and they have left no one in doubt that President Goodluck Jonathan is their target.
Finally, I have cause to believe that the helicopter crash was an attack from terrorists going by the jubilation of the Gambari bigots in Kaduna and the satanic vituperations of Aminu Gadzama.
However, I will not be in a hurry to conclude. I will wait, but not too patiently. The security forces and investigation teams must act fast by inviting for questioning; and investigating the background, activities and affiliations of Aminu Gadzama. This primitive arrogance and madness of the Gambaris must end now. A stitch in time saves nine.

We would like to pace other flow rates to that of
straw being blown/sucked in a closed 6-10" pipe.
The problem is that the straw is so light and of

to see what technology is best suited for the task.

Your help is appreciated.

Extra Life at Paradox
How does it work? It's pretty simple – players sign up on the Extra Life website, set up or join a team, and start fundraising. (We've got details on how to do that below!) The money you raise is entirely supported by the people you know, so your goal is to get the word out that you are trying to help the kids! All you need to do is share your link and your story, and people who click your link can donate to your cause. Successful fundraisers in the past generally use a mixed approach of e-mails, Facebook messages, phone calls or visits with people, tweets, and anything else you can think of! The more you get the word out, the more money you will be able to raise, and the more valuable your marathon time will be!
What's next?
Once you've raised the money, you have to earn it. The final step is to join us for the gaming marathon and play games for 24 hours straight. It's extreme and exhausting, but it's always worth it! We recommend taking photos of your gaming experiences, and letting your sponsors know through social media what you are doing so they can see that you are doing your part!
Previous Extra Life Media
We've saved a stock of videos, podcasts, and more from our previous Extra Life experiences from 2014 onward. To see what Extra Life is all about at Paradox, check these out!

Otherwise, any of the above teams would be happy to take your donation. If in doubt, you can always just donate to Rich Early himself! The simplest way to get a donation down is to use the player's donation page to make a donation using a credit card or Paypal. That way, the money goes right where it needs to be! An example is pictured below – see, easy!
Want to use paper to get it done? No problem. Donations can be made with the player in person or at the shop on the day of the marathon. You'll have a brief form to fill out, and we'll mail in the donation once the marathon has completed. It's a bit more work, but it's worth it for the kids, so don't hesitate if this is how you can help!
I want to fundraise!
Nice! We'd love to have you. As a reminder, fundraising is a serious commitment – but it's also a way to get way more money to the kids than you might be able to afford yourself. We are happy to have you on board, but we are looking to support players who are serious about putting in the effort to raise as much money as they can! We know that not everyone will have the same level of success, but all that we ask is that you put in the effort and get the word out! Good luck on your mission!
Extra Life does fundraising in "teams". What's a team? A team is any number of players who are going to play games together and pool their donations. Teams are a great way to keep each other encouraged and motivated both to successfully raise funds and to keep pushing throughout the day.
First off, do you have a team to join, are you starting a team, or are you on your own?
Awesome! If you know your team name, you can search for it on the Extra Life website and join it there. Simply use the "Search for a Player" box and type the team name you are looking for. It's a little picky, so make sure you get it right! (Protip: Many teams at Paradox start with "ParadoxCNC"!) Then hit enter and you'll be brought to a new page!
On the new page, you might see a list of players, but if you choose the Teams tab, you'll see all the teams that match your search. If you see your team there, it gets really easy – just click the team name and hit the big "Join Our Team" button! If you don't already have an Extra Life account, you'll get a chance to make one now. Welcome to the team!
Welcome aboard, Captain! Being the captain of a team means rallying your troops, encouraging your team to push harder to raise more money, and being in charge of your presence on your Team's fundraising page. If you are looking to take more of a leading role in the community, this is the place for you!
Start by clicking "Join" on the main page, and you'll begin creating an account. During that process, you'll get to choose to create a team, and you'll be brought to a page to fill in the details. We recommend you name your team something starting with "ParadoxCNC" so it's easier to find your community!
On this page, you'll get a chance to set your team's goals, but MOST IMPORTANTLY, you'll get to choose the hospital that your funds will go to. Make sure you choose the "ND – Sanford Children's Hospital", as pictured below!
From there, just fill in a few more details and you'll be ready to invite your team members and get started! If you have a team ready to go, email us at firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll ask you a few questions and get you listed on this page!
No worries – freelancers like you are exactly who Captain Rich is looking for! All you need to do is join his crew on the official ParadoxCNC team! There will still be plenty of groups to play games with all day, so all you have to worry about is raising those funds! Just hit "Join our Team" on the team page linked above, create your account, and start getting the word out! Captain Rich will see you bright and early at 8 AM!

Do we remember Caspian? It's been awhile. When we last saw him, he was dumping Ian with his half-brother on the Sacred Isles so he could go off and fight without carting the kid around.
It's been 9 years since then. 10 years since the fall of Ca-dalen.
Also, I want you all to know I wanted so badly to do an April Fools, but it was too cruel. So I didn't.
The SpiderForest comic of the week is Dream*scar!
So this is my first time featuring a comic that's usually in the top 15, if not top 10, of TWC...if that tells you how awesome this comic is.
Dream*scar takes place in an alternate reality earth where all the monsters and fairy tales are not only real, they've also publicly revealed themselves and have formed a type of civil rights movement. Vix just found out that she herself is one of these "unhumans," and she's on the run from the cops for somehow maybe accidentally killing a bunch of her classmates, hiding in Unhuman central. This is page that hooked me personally. It's funny, it's dark, and it's awesome read. Check it out!

> Questions:
> 1. The Sephorith on the Tree of Life, are equated with emotions...knowledge, and existence, or at least this is the impression that I have gotten....
Archetypal energies that exist in the universe (macrocosm)- all of which man (the microcosm) contains naturally only in a yet unordered form.
>The Tree in it's present form seems to be of little value to me, other than to use the generated emotions to change forms of energy. The filing system that most people claim it to be does not seem to work well for me, because everything needs to be cross referenced...
I used to share this view, but after I realized that all things were interconnected and that any system will show only one set of possibilities out of an infinite whole, I was able to make use of traditional and non-traditional versions of the tree since each showed a different version of the whole picture. Any mental map made will always be inefficient for accurately portraying the whole of infinite reality due to its being bound up in Airy/intellectual thought-with-form.
"The map is not the territory." It's just an incomplete guide for personal experience of the territory.
>this is one thing that the circular Tree seems to point out. It also resembles the geometric figure drawn in Kaplan's book describing the path of the twenty two letters. So my question is....can anyone tell me how it is used [ the traditional Tree of Life ], to effect the physical and the mundane???
By reorganizing the forces within you until they match the 'universal' pattern or organization and thereby learning to tap into those forces more effectively and at will. Also, there is the matter of attunement to those specific energies and states of consciousness through practice and learning how they function in nature so as to apply them more effectively through force of will.
My arrangement:
Spirit (0)- Contains the seed and all possibilities of manifestation of a particular object/topic. Allness. Beyond duality.
Fire (123)- Contains its first manifestations as 'individual' from the whole - I consider this to be the level of 'thought-without-form' or Intuitive thought/existence (in my own 'system' of doing things anyway).
Air (456) - Contains the mental/intellectual structures/programs of a psyche - the Mental Body (when viewing a person's aura from that level). Thought-with-form.
Water (789)- Contains the Emotional body of a person - also the level of 'astral' plane and dreams.
Earth (10) - The ultimate manifestation of all preceding principles. This would be the physical body itself.
Modifying anything on any of those 'levels' will have an effect on one or many of the others. Modify the intellectual programming of a psyche and you will create change in the physical actions of the person (although possibly only temporary since the person will usually revert back to the way they were if it was not their will to change and if that's the only aspect of their consciousness that was tampered with). Physical injury can cause energy changes and trauma to more subtle layers of the aura as well.
A seemingly (yet not) unrelated text that might be of interest here would be Frances Yates' book on "The Art of Memory." Page 217 should explain a bit of how the tree of life is normally used as a filing system and as a method for reorganizing the microcosm so as to be a more accurate reflection of the macrocosm. Of course, each person's 'system' for accomplishing this will vary depending on his/her views and practices.
> 2. Astrology seems to be a way of classifying people, some seem to use the Tree for the same thing. Does this theory seem to be more accurate???
Putting one system against another and trying to decide which is more accurate isn't possible. One person may make better use of one system over another but that depends on his/her talents and skills. If it works, I say use it ;)
> 3. Now here is the goody..lol.....at what point does one enter the Tree???
You ARE the tree. Or at least, in order to make the Tree work for you, you must become like the Tree by reorganizing your consciousness and internal latent 'forces' and energies until they match that arrangement of sephiroth/paths etc.
From what I've seen, some aspects of ceremonial magick structure such as the Tree of Life cannot always be applied immediately without prior preparation. There appears to be the need for building into one's self the structure and assigning meaning and adding energy/inertia to that structure (and set of symbols) in order to make it useable and effective for personal magickal work. Another example of this could be the Lesser Ritual of the Pentagram. In my own experience with that, it was entirely ineffective for banishing after only having practiced it for a couple weeks. I had to build the ability to banish into myself through practice of that ritual (and its visualizations) for several months and years in order to make it more effective and useable for me. Drawing a pentagram now produces the visual pentagram lit up in the air before me (in a darkened room) and an impenetrable barrier against unwanted people and lower astral entities, whereas drawing one before with the intent to banish an unwanted force only produced a vague hint of an effect. The more you do something and reinforce that act with energy and consciousness, the more effective it'll be over time.
> 4. If the ten are of nothingness.....which is incorrect...because in the past nothing meant no one thing....[ another example of how our language has changed..and the reasons for searching the beginnings ], how can each one have it's own color???, and only one color???
Color attributions have changed periodically. When we dogmatize to the point of exclusion of all other possibilities then we miss the point I believe.
I believe 10 was used as a base number due to the structure of the Hebrew alphabet. (In other words, this was possibly done out of convenience.- later Ed. addition) 12 or 14 or any other number could have been used to equally good effect in my opinion. The 10 sephiroth are 'emanations' of the infinite Allness and also contained within it. I always envision a primordial abstract unmanifest non-dual soup of Allness condensing into a definite point and thus becoming 'manifest' first as kether (and then proceeding from there in the usual manner described by other writers on Qabalah) when I try to visually imagine the process of manifestation for understanding. Each will see it differently.
> 5. Now I would equate each sphere as one of the major chakras...but as we work, and evolve we develop more major chakras, how would this fit in??? Was the ten a statement of what was there at the starting point???, before evolution???
I don't feel that the sephiroth are exactly related to the chakras at all. Each person may view the same phenomenon but will always have a slightly different interpretation of it. In this case, it's the Hindu mystics and the Jewish mystics. The Hindus (or whoever it was that created the chakra system) viewed the energy of the human body and saw spinning wheels or points of contact between soul and body. The Jewish mystics/clairvoyants saw the same phenomenon but probably zoomed in on different aspects of what they saw and perhaps only saw more general spheres of energy influence. I believe that they also added some conjecture and sought to make the body conform to their ideas of perfection and order as time went on and may not have entirely based their 'system' (i.e. tree of life) on clairvoyantly viewed phenomena. I think the goals of the practitioners/creators of a system have a lot to do with the structure/use of the system. Someone with more historical knowledge will have to do more research on this topic to know for certain. These are just my guesses and thoughts on the subject.
As far as relating the chakras to the sephiroth, I personally consider Tiphareth to be a combination of solar plexis (3rd) and heart (4th) chakras. This makes much more sense to me. Yesod (when considered as an energy 'center' in the aura) seems more like a combination of the 1st and 2nd chakras to me. The Middle Pillar would be the pranic tube of course.
> 6. This is a symbol of visualization to take us with-in ourselves to different areas that can be used ...if any of you have read "Bardon", he tells you to generate the spheres of color, and to place them at certain points in your body...these are to be used at later dates in different workings, is this not the same thing??? In the supposed walking the paths...are you not gathering energy???, to activate and further charge the spheres??? I hear of no one using the spheres in their magick...why not???
Perhaps you haven't run into anyone who's into that sort of thing yet. Lack of evidence does not indicate complete absence. If they're Qabalistic magickians then you'd think they'd be using the sephiroth in their workings...
> 7. Tell me how you use the Tree and what you think it is for, and what it can be used for, do you see any way that it can be improved???, be brave and adventurous...stick your neck out....I do it all of the time, how else can you learn, and explore except through questions, answers, and the sharing of prospective.
My Qabalah is not your Qabalah and vice versa. Since it is a living system and not a rigid one, each always develops his/her own uses of it based on the basic rudiments of the 'system'. If we're truly adepts then we'll be always working on and changing our views and 'systems' so as not to become rigid and narrow our perceptions unnecessarily. Such changes occur naturally in our development - as Crowley once mentioned that the adept's view of his universe can change in completely different ways every week! I only cling to one piece of 'dogma' if it can be called that: "Reality is Infinite - All things are Interconnected." Much of what I do has been received directly as a result of personal astral work and training under supervision of other adepts and it was only later that I discovered books that supported my experiences (such as the Kybalion, Bardon's works etc.).
For me, the Tree of Life is a way for me to organize the energies/forces in my consciousness so as to make more immediate use of them. I've found the mental and emotional stability that results from this to be indispensable. However, unlike some rigid traditionalists, I don't feel that certain paths ONLY link certain sephiroth together. A little research in Gershom Scholem's works will show that historically, the early Kabbalists did not believe that some sephiroth were not connected by paths. They felt that ALL things were interconnected in some way - each sephira to every other. I was quite tickled to find that out since again, it supported the visions and experiences I had had in my own workings.
I am aware that each arrangement of the Tree of Life, from the more modern Renaissance conceptions of it in popular use today, to the more ancient circular pathless version by Rabbi Isaac the Blind (mid 12th c.), has something useful to offer. Each shows a different view of the phenomena being observed. Even though the 'paths' don't all interconnect on the modern tree, when using it I still mentally know that they all do anyway even if that particular arrangement can't show it. All is in All.
I don't claim to know everything or anything for that matter, but if my thoughts have been helpful to someone here then they have served their purpose.

International Exhibiting Artist to Teach at Maiwa
Susan Shie
Workshop with Award Winning Artist Susan Shie
Described as "a truly magical experience", Susan Shie's four-day workshop–Story Painting on Cloth–has always received outstanding reviews, we feel so fortunate to have her join us again for this year's symposium.
Returning to us from Ohio, USA, Susan captivates the room, relaying positivity and encouragement, allowing each student to grow and thrive throughout the workshop. Recognizing that each participant has their own style, Susan has the innate ability to hone in on what each student is looking for and to help elevate their work to the next level by spending time individually and ensuring their work progresses smoothly.
Susan will demonstrate each process with special emphasis and instruction given to the air pen, allowing students ample time to discover whether it might be for them.
As Susan describes it: "You'll be drawing like you did as a child, in relaxed wonder over your abilities, and writing off the top of your head, no planning ahead".
Susan will also be giving a lecture The Art of Story Painting on Wednesday September 30th.

Medical questions & health advice by board certified doctors
"I have red pimple-like bumps and blisters on my legs. What are they?"
It started with one red bump on my leg that when I itched it, it seemed to get worse and turned into a large sore. Then I got one in the top of my butt crack that does not want to heal. It is itchy and hurts. Now I have several of these pimple like things all over my legs. They have white heads on the top and some of them just look like little blisters. Is this an allergic reaction to something or shingles??
This is something that will need to be seen by a doctor in a prompt fashion. While there are many possible explanations for what could be causing this, there is at least some concern that this represents a bacterial infection that will require antibiotics to heal properly. While proper cleaning and care of these lesions may be enough in some cases, it is concerning that you have more and more appearing, and that some of the spots have not gotten better. If this happens, there is the possibility that some of the spots could be growing, connecting, or spreading underneath the skin and could lead to very serious infections. Additionally, when the skin is compromised like this there is the concern that other bacteria can get into the skin and cause additional infection (for example, infections near the rectum and genitalia can become seriously infected in a rapid fashion if not treated appropriately). Speaking with a doctor is a vital step to improving, as some of these spots you describe may require drainage as well. Please discuss this question with your doctor soon, and take the necessary steps to get feeling better. Go to an emergency room or urgent care if you need to.

Infinix x551 NVRAM Backup File Download for All Variants
This tutorial teaches you how to correct Unknown Baseband and Invalid IMEI errors of Infinix x551 Hot Note Pro and Hot Note for both 2Gb RAM, 16Gb ROM and 1Gb RAM, 16Gb ROM variants of Infinix x551 by flashing NVRam backup on the phone.
In this page, I have also included the download link for the NVRAM Backup file which you can flash back onto any of the Infinix Hot Note models listed above. Check the Download Section here for the download links.
Why Would you Have Invalid IMEI or Unknown Baseband On Infinix x551?
In most cases, the issue of Unknown Baseband, Invalid IMEI, No Service or No SIM card detected usually occur when you flash a new custom ROM on the phone especially; when it's an upgrade from android KitKat ROM to Lollipop.
Other times, this issue may occur if you flash wrong stock ROM firmware using SP Flash Tool as well. Or, when you use the Format All option of SP Flash Tool to correct certain errors in any attempt to flash Stock ROM using SP Flash Tool.
When this happens, the control for the Baseband and radio that controls the network signals are located in the NVRAM folder which is located in;
And specifically in a file named;
Once this file is missing or malformed the NVRAM partiton of your MTK android device is corrupted, and that makes your phone's IMEI and radio functionality to malfunction or cease to work.
Correcting Unknown Baseband and Invalid IMEI of x551
This method requires that you flash NVRAM backup file on your Infinix Hot Note x551 using MTK Droid Tools. You can download the NVRAM Backup file for the Infinix x551 at the download section.
How to Do it:
1. Download SP Flash Tool from the download section below then, extract it on your PC desktop.
2. Download PDanet+ from the download section and install it on your PC.
3. Download Infinix x551 NVRAM Backup file from the download section below.
4. Extract the NVRAM backup file. In it you will find two (2) files. Simply move both files into the NVRAM Backup folder within the MTK Droid Tools folder on your PC Desktop.
5. Enable USB Debugging on the Infinix x551 that has Invalid IMEI and Unknown Baseband issues and then, connect it to the PC. NOTE: some phones will require root access, if it's not rooted, root it using Kingroot here.
6. Open MTK Droid Tools folder on your PC and lunch MTK Droid Tools.exe. Wait few seconds until MTK Droid Tools bring your phone details then, on MTK Droid Tools, click IMEI / NVRAM and then; click Restore. Select the right file from the NVRAM Backup file for your Infinix x551 following the prompts by MTK Droid Tools.
7. Now, you should see that baseband has been written on the phone to what it should be.
8. Reboot the phone and enjoy.
If after rebooting the phone, the Unknown Baseband re-occure, restart the process from the beginning again but instead of rebooting the phone at the step eight (8); reboot it to recovery (it has to be custom recovery) and flash Custom ROM on it using the normal procedures.
After that, your Infinix x551 Unknown Baseband and Invalid IMEI issues is now permanently solved and you can then flash stock ROM on it again.
