Ever wish your students were more motivated? If you're like most of us, you have tried an array of rewards and punishments to motivate kids. There's only one problem: it doesn't work. At least it doesn't work well enough. People (yes, even students) aren't motivated from the outside so rewards and punishments only work to a point. We are internally motivated. That's why it's essential to engage and inspire students to be motivated to succeed in school (and life.)
If you're ready to move beyond the reward/punishment model and embrace a whole new way to understand motivation, I encourage you to come back regularly. It's time to challenge the status quo and create schools and classrooms based on what really motivates behavior.

The version consistency feature saves the bean state at first transactional access and caches it between transactions. The state is copied from the cache instead of being read from the database. The bean state is verified by primary key and version column values at flush for custom queries (for dirty instances only) and at commit (for clean and dirty instances).
Create the version column in the primary table.
Give the version column a numeric data type.
Provide appropriate update triggers on the version column.
These triggers must increment the version column on each update of the specified row.
Specify the version column.
This is specified in the check-version-of-accessed-instances subelement of the consistency element in the sun-cmp-mappings.xml file. See consistency in Oracle GlassFish Server 3.0.1 Application Deployment Guide.
Map the CMP bean to an existing schema.
Automatic schema generation is not supported for beans with version column consistency checking. Instead, work with your database administrator to create the schema and add the required triggers.

After watching customers continually download and install one of the vendor's free, limited products from the company website, Silver Peak CEO Rick Tinsley was interested to see how they would respond to the same access to its more advanced products.
That idea gave birth to the Virtual WAN Optimization Marketplace, an online resource launching Tuesday where customers can download free, 30-day trial versions of Silver Peak's virtual WAN optimisation tools.
Although Tinsley says he expects customers with remote branch offices in international locations to jump at an opportunity to deploy software over the Internet, some of which he says "incur as much cost in shipping and physical installation as they incur purchasing the product itself," he acknowledged that the virtual marketplace will be a valuable experiment on the market's preferences for software delivery as a whole.
"Our mission is to make this WAN optimisation technology available in as many different ways as possible, and let the market choose how it wishes to consume it," Tinsley says.
Part of the inspiration for the idea stems from an entirely free WAN optimisation application called Vxx, which had been successful on Silver Peak's website. Consistent attention toward the self-service nature of installing and deploying the product is what Tinsley saw as a sign that customers may be interested in accessing its other WAN optimisation tools in the same fashion.
"We saw so many customers completely self-service, downloading this thing and installing it successfully and getting great value from it, that we said 'let's go ahead and open this up to other customers,'" Tinsley says. "Larger customers, who had liked to evaluate our larger pay products, maybe just want to do it themselves."
Physical trial versions will still be available
Silver Peak had offered trial versions of its products in the past, Tinsley says. The process, however, involved the customer submitting a form on the Silver Peak website, after which a manual process between a sales representative and the customer would be carried out. Although the virtual marketplace will not replace the manual process that some customers may still prefer, Tinsley believes it's a step toward a trend that could catch on quickly.
"That seems to be where the industry's going," Tinsley says. "Obviously, the physical appliances don't go away. We still have a lot of customers who prefer physical appliances, especially for the very large data center locations, but in many cases customers find virtual versions of these products more cost-effective."
Silver Peak is betting quite heavily on further growth of this trend, as Tinsley says virtual WAN optimisation tools will account for 50 percent of the company's offerings by the end of 2013.
That bet may be a safe one, says Joe Skorupa, a research vice president at Gartner, where he is part of the Data Center Transformation and Security Research unit. Although some competitors have potential to take a similar approach, such as the market leading Riverbed, whose acquisition of Zeus last summer may enable it to offer a similar solution, Skorupa says Silver Peak will gain valuable attention for breaking the mold.
"I think Silver Peak will have an advantage here for some period of time," Skorupa says. "It's always valuable for a smaller, less-visible company to show up with a thought-leading way of doing something. So it will get attention, and it will get people considering them that may not have considered them in the past."
However, Silver Peak will not remain out in front for long, Skorupa says, as the hype around its new virtual marketplace may prompt others to attempt to catch up quickly.
The WAN optimisation market needs a shake-up
"If Silver Peak sees significant success, if people start asking their competitors where their downloadable version is, I have no doubt the competition will follow," Skorupa says.
The advantage afforded through the virtual marketplace will only boost an already rapidly growing company. Silver Peak's renewed focus on WAN optimisation is what differentiated itself enough to earn it a spot in Gartner's Leaders Quadrant for the WANOpt market last month, alongside Riverbed and Cisco.
With some success in its latest initiative further pushing it along, Silver Peak could very likely disrupt a market that Cindy Borovick, IDC program vice president for Enterprise Data Center Networks, says is poised for a shakeup.
"When you think about the strategic importance of the enterprise network and the connectivity out to customers, partners, taking advantage of cloud services, or even just using your own internally owned data centers to create an active-active [network] or an overall disaster recovery strategy, there's a real focus on that WAN architecture," Borovick says. "And we believe the combination of network intelligence and WAN expertise is really going to start to change. We'll start to see some vendor changes and acquisitions."
Silver Peak appears to be striking at an opportune time, as well. Earlier this year, IDC predicted the market for WAN optimisation and network intelligence tools to reach $1.3 billion (£828 million) by the end of 2012, outpacing growth for the overall network equipment market as a whole.

Yesterday's post, where I told the stories of three (+2) victims of MRSA infections, raised ire, blame and excuses from commentators and emailers alike.
Never mind that they were stories of five people who are infected with MRSA, one of whom has basically been left to die. Never mind that the frustration levels of these patients while trying to get treatment are over the top. Never mind that these people are victims of dirty medicine — the kind where guidelines and controls exist, but are ignored in too many places. The negative comments were aimed at me — it's easier, after all, to shoot the messenger.

Dave Grohl scores his own TV series
Rocker DAVE GROHL has scored his own TV series - he'll front a new show about America's most famous recording studios.
The Foo Fighters frontman will host and produce the as-yet-untitled programme for America's HBO network.
The series will expand on Grohl's acclaimed Sound City documentary, in which he chronicled the story of fabled Los Angeles recording space Sound City Studios, where Nirvana recorded their classic album Nevermind.
For the new series, Grohl will go beyond the Los Angeles city limits and visit recording studios in New York, Chicago, Seattle, and Nashville.
Grohl will also interview musicians, like KISS star Paul Stanley, Heart's Nancy Wilson and The Eagles' Joe Walsh, who have recorded albums at each facility.

Storage and capacity only refer to the number of bottles you will need to store.Obviously, this number will be different for everyone, but when looking at your ideal collection of wine cooler, you should make sure that the wine chiller you select is larger than your current inventory to accommodate growth.
Over the years you may want to increase your collection and a unit with more capacity will allow you to do that. A good number to go by is to double the size of what you typically must.
If your current collection is 50 bottles, you will look for the wine cooler with the ability to hold 100 bottles or relatively close to that. I certainly would not go below 75 in that example.Look Carefully at the Temperature Settings and Stability
Before choosing the wine cooler, you should look closely at temperature settings and balance of the cooler.
A quality unit will remain stable at specific temperatures. Most wines that require refrigeration will deteriorate in quality unless you maintain a narrow temperature range consistently.
Perfect temperature ranges will vary from wine to wine.You can assume to have most white wines, red table wines and sparkling wines at 42 to 60 degrees F.
Wide temperature swings will certainly compromise the flavor of these wines. Hence should be avoided.If you select a wine cooler with one compartment, then you will have to rely on colder air settling at the bottom of the fridge to define temperature zones.
Of course, everything is relevant to the price you pay, but you should have the ability to control temperatures in separated, individual sections is certainly preferable.
Most of the wine coolers today have this feature allowing you to store different bottles at various temperatures within the same cooler.Check Out the Shelving
Make sure the shelving configuration is as you expected. There are several different styles and types of shelving depending on any wine cooler you pick.
Most of the standard electric designs use coated wire racks as the primary form of shelving.In most models, they can be lifted out of the unit's compartment to accommodate larger bottles.
The features characteristic which is greater, say 750 ml bottles are a part of your current inventory because you make more room or change the configuration as needed.
Wood shelving can be attractive and quite sturdy but are not removable and are limited to the changes made. The bottom line with shelving is that it needs to work for you and your collection.
You need to be comfortable with the style and layout so that it fits your personal wine storage requirements.Other Considerations
Some other questions and features should be a part of your decision making while shopping for your new wine cooler.
Although some of these may be less important than the three categories above, they are still necessary to be considered, and so I have listed them below with brief descriptions for each which are important for the wine cooler that is recognized.
