Founded in 2009, 247Moneybox is a London-based, online lender which specialises in providing short term loans to UK customers.
Their responsible approach to lending sees them move away from the 'one size fits all' model which is why they'll always look to assess your application on its individual merits rather than simply using a two dimensional credit score.
As part of this commitment to responsible lending, first time borrowers are able to take on loans of up to £200, however their data shows that the average first time loan is usually for around £80.

Dec. 28, 2004 - 1:08 p.m.
So I Married A Pedophile
She didn't.
She pulled in to her sister's drive late on Christmas Eve, fell face first onto the sofa, woke briefly during the kids' unwrapathon at 5am, then crawled back on the sofa for another 10 hour nap. At 4pm she finally staggered into the bathroom to shower (that's one great smelling sofa now I bet), had dinner (candy canes and Port wine) and got talked into attending some cow bell ringing concert at her sister's hick church. One of her kids was lead Quasimodo and would have been crushed, crushed if Autie Spouse didn't attend. At least according to his mom. (Turns out the kid was barely able to rouse himself before the conductor dropped the baton on the first piece. I opined to NewWifey(tm), rather wittily I thought, "Maybe he has the Clapper." But she said no. The combination of Italian rum balls and stolen gulps of 34 proof Port just took a toll on his 8 year old frame. I don't think he would have noticed if his own mom had blown off attending and shot down to the dog track again instead.)
The clan got back around midnight and NewWifey(tm) immediately assumed her place on the divan.
At 7 the next morning she waved goodbye to the sleeping sibling and started the loooong drive. Again.
She arrived after 2 nap breaks, 5 Thermos' of Dunkin' Donuts coffee, and a quick detour at South of the Border to cram as many M-80's as the Escape could hold (NewWifey(tm)'s a nut for ordinance) at Dangerhouse at 8pm.
Just in time for me to give her a peck on the cheek, mutter "Merry Christmas", and go to bed.
Not even a cheap feel.
She understood, of course. I had to be back at work at 3am, and staying up til 8 to greet her at the door was a pretty big sacrifice as it was. Besides - she was right behind me, crawling under the blanket and snoring without even bothering to take off her clothes. I wish she had showered first, but....
So anyway, we decided to celebrate Christmas on Monday the 27th this year. It turned out to be a lot of fun too, and to cap it off...it snowed! As much as I hate the White Plague, I'm one of those saps who always says, "Yeah, but I do love a White Christmas." The losers who celebrated Santa on the 25th had a grey, rainy, Tiny Tim on crutches before Scrooge's epiphany Christmas. We had a Hallmark Card.
I finally got to make the splendid holiday dinner I'd been planning; a standing rib roast, baby Yukon potatoes simmered in duck fat, and classic creamed spinach. It may seem staid, or even boring, to you, but when you eat a meal like that on holiday plates, with a nice bottle of wine and looking down the hall at a twinkling tree, you know why they ARE classics. It was perfect. (Oh - and for you oenophiles - I dipped into my paradis cellar and decanted a 1980 Freemark Abbey "Cabernet Bosche" for the repast. Very nice, although somewhat tart. '80 was a very cool summer in CA, and this bottle reflected the meteoroligical reports.)
After dinner...PRESENTS!!
Yes, the only remaining reason for even observing the holiday. At least, that's the impression I got from all the commercials I had to read on-air for 9 solids weeks before Christmas.
But I do love it. I wallow in it, in fact. It's been "the Joy of Getting" for me since I was a kid. As usual, I began salivating uncontrolably the moment I saw my monogrammed Powerpuff Girl stocking (with Buttercup's face overlooking the top) bulging with pregnant lumps.
Woo hoo, score!!!
Here's what I hauled in:
* Two Fairly Oddparents "Book Sitter" character bookmarks (one Wanda, one Cosmo).
* Two books of Fairly Oddparents temporary tattoos (almost whittled down to one already).
* The Fairly Oddparents board game by Milton-Bradly ("ages 6 and up")
* A SpongeBob Squarepants Playstation-2 controller (with Turbo Button!)
* "Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas" game for PS-2.
* A SpongeBob Squarepants throw blanket to keep my tootsies warm while playing Grand Theft Auto.
* Fairly Oddparents seat covers for the Mighty WRX!! (Well, she bought a bolt of F.O. cloth and promised me she'd make whatever I wanted from it. I chose seat covers.)
* A Macallan 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch gift set with commemorative tumblers.
It all looked something like this:
NewWifey(tm) obviously thinks she married a 10 year old boy. With a drinking problem.
And she couldn't be happier.....
Oh, and what glittering treasures did I leave wrapped for her under the tree?
As usual.
You may recall that since starting this diary I have gifted her with: A Rigid 10" Compound Miter Saw, a Rigid 13" Reciprocating Saw, a DeWalt Table Saw w/ Stand, a Porter-Cable Fixed/Plunge Combo Router, a full Dremel setup, Black and Decker Orbital Jigsaw, a Makita 18-amp Cordless Drill, and a selection of hand tools from Seat Wrenches to a Post Holer.
This year she got a Craftsman 16-inch Scroll Saw.
I think I married a 40 year old man.
Who's butt crack I don't mind looking at when he's doing plumbing.
Of course, I had to fill her stocking also - and she has one of those novelty 4-foot long ones that she demands be stocked to the brim every year. And it was, with various chocolates, cd's, both "Kill Bill" movies (her favorite - I think she projects herself into it as the hero, in her dreams) and a vibrating seat cover pad (so I can be relieved of Massage Duty after she's finished her latest construction site marathon).
And naturally afterwards there was, as hissandtell would say, "snogging". Because as I always say, just because Christmas comes but once a year doesn't mean that you have to.
I hope you had as much fun as I did, kids. Even if you did celebrate Christmas on the wrong day this year. Suckahs.
Now if you'll excuse me, a certain pedophile wife wearing nothing but a Fir swag is beckoning with a bottle of 12 year old Scotch.
Ho Ho Ho!

Honeywell International Inc., a diversified technology and manufacturing company, will acquire Intermec for $10.00 per share in an all-cash transaction valued at approximately $600 million, net of cash and debt acquired. Intermec, provider of data capture and information management technology, fills a niche for Honeywell in pursuing opportunities in tracking and tracing applications.
"The addition of Intermec is a natural extension to our scanning and mobility business, which was established through the successful acquisitions of Hand Held Products, Metrologic and EMS," said Honeywell Automation and Control Solutions President and Chief Executive Officer Roger Fradin. "While Intermec strengthens our core scanning and mobile computing business, it opens up entirely new opportunities in RFID, voice solutions and barcode and receipt printing segments that we currently don't serve. It expands our product offerings and strengthens our intellectual property portfolio putting us in position to be a technology leader for years to come in the highly attractive AIDC industry."
"We are pleased that Honeywell recognizes and values the capabilities as well as the strategic potential of our business," said Allen J. Lauer, Intermec chairman and interim CEO. "Our Board conducted a thoughtful and comprehensive strategic review of Intermec's business with the goal of determining the best possible overall outcome for our stakeholders. The agreement with Honeywell not only maximizes value for our stockholders, it combines our history of innovation and engineering expertise, global reach and leading products and solutions with the significant global scale and resources of Honeywell."
Under the terms of the agreement, which has been approved by both companies' Boards of Directors, Honeywell will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Intermec for $10.00 per share in cash. The transaction represents a 48% premium to Intermec's closing stock price on November 1, 2012, the last trading day prior to Intermec announcing it had retained BofA Merrill Lynch. The transaction, which is subject to the approval of Intermec stockholders, regulatory approvals and customary closing terms and conditions, is expected to close by the end of the second quarter 2013.
In light of this announcement, Intermec is suspending its previously announced search for a permanent Chief Executive Officer.

i remember when i told my mom the sophie died, she in her european way said "dina, don't tell amara, she can't handle it". me being not so euopean (at times) said "that's nuts mom, she not only needs to know, she needs to grieve and honour her little friend".
7 months later, the loss of this little girl pinches us hard in the most unusual times and ways. we have an open door policy, the girls can ask any question and talk about sophie as much as they need and want. as long as they can handle me crying every time they do... their fine with that.
normally at this time in july we are away at the cabin starting our summer family vacation, this year we are held back by dry wall installers taking longer than planned (the ways of home renovation i suppose!).
now, i think it was the universe's plan to allow us to honour our little friend on her special "bday week". the week has had loads of conversations from "do they celebrate birthdays in heaven" to "i wish i was there with her" (that was a hard sentence to hear) but all these conversations, a lemonade stands for the BC children's hospital (in sophie name that was all their idea) and a birthday card release up to heaven today is what i like to call healing, loving and releasing pain.
to anyone who thinks keeping death under the rug and "shh don't talk about it" attitudes, i would highly recommend you don't take that approach. children are so smart and they to hurt in their on individual ways, they need an outlet. help them heal through art, your ear, your real feelings and thoughts and your open door to any questions. you never know, it might just help you heal too.
dear little sophie, HAPPY 6th BIRTHDAY!!
{amara made a horn, counted down and released her balloons. she chased them and said run with me sophie i know your here beside me} sigh, BALLING.

2nd Trimester
Second Trimester
You've made it to the second trimester. Thank the Lord! No, literally -- thank you, Lord. I LOVED this mid-point in my pregnancy where your energy is naturally higher and you are settling in with your precious baby bump. As your baby continues to grow there will be a few things you will need to consider while exercising.
- Avoid exercises that involve lying flat on your back if you begin to feel dizzy or nauseous. You can use pillows or foam pads to create an inclined surface.
- Listen to your body. Stay in tune with your exertion level. On a scale of 1-10 you should stay between a 5-8 level of exertion (1 being an activity such as laundry to 10 being an all out sprint).
- Stay hydrated. Aim to drink 8 ounces of water for every 15 minutes of exercise PLUS the recommended 64 ounces for the rest of the day.
- Probably an obvious one, but avoid doing exercises on your stomach. Trust me, it won't be comfortable anyway.
- Exercise in a cool, ventilated environment --- you don't want to overheat (Bikram yoga will have to wait),
- Support your body with the appropriate activewear -- supportive sports bra & tennis shoes are a must. Be aware, your feet can swell or grow during pregnancy.
- Cramping can be common in the second trimester so be sure you are drinking enough water and consuming enough electrolytes found in bananas or sports drinks.
- Avoid contact sports or activities that jar the body like jumping jacks.
- Due to the release of the hormone relaxin, which softens cartilage in the pubic bone to allow the baby to descend during delivery, you can be more susceptible to overstretching joints and ligaments. So although you may feel like you can stretch way further, try to only go as far as you're use to.
- Now is the time to strengthen your core which is defined as all the parts of your body except for your limbs and head. Specifically, you will want to strengthen your deep ab muscles and pelvic floor in attempt to avoid the condition known as diastasis recti. This is a fairly common condition in which the right and left halves of rectus abdominis muscle spread apart (more than 2 finger widths separation). If this does occur during your pregnancy you will need to make some modifications.
If you didn't feel well enough to workout in your first trimester you are by no means too late. Now is the time to get moving. In addition to the weight bearing exercises I've prepared, you can also be jogging, bike riding, taking brisk walks and swimming.
Another important thing to do, be sure to rest. Your body is creating a human being so give it a break if it's asking for it. Be mentally tough on the days your body is feeling good and humble on the days you are not.

There are quite a few Star Wars adverts around at the moment – we've got to suffer the humiliation of Yoda every time there's a Vodafone advert on the box -- but this one is frankly awesome.
It's made by the same folks who popped the Death Star into orbit over San Francisco back in 2008, but this one is an ad for Toys 'R Us in Denmark. It certainly makes a change to see aliens landing in Europe instead of always on American soil like the movies. Maybe they're after the Lego? [YouTube via Kotaku]

"I feel like laughing at ourselves is a great way to heal, connect, and bring people together. Mark is the archetype of this. Having come through hell, he now makes fun of it...When you can get 150+ people in a room laughing their asses off at some of their darkest memories, you know you're part of the solution. Not for the faint of heart; his set was raunchy, and at times bordering on obscene, but everyone knew it was true...Professional, easy to work with, and comfortable at the front of the room in a crowd, Mark brings hilarity to our darkest corners. Can't wait to have him back!"

November is National Diabetes Awareness Month
Posted by
Nearly 30 million children and adults in America are living with diabetes and another 86 million are at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes. The disease is taking a devastating physical, emotional, and financial toll on our country. If you are fortunate enough to not already be battling this disease, please take these preventative steps to help your family stay healthy.
- Get more physical exercise—Exercise can help you lose weight, lower your blood sugar, and boost your sensitivity to insulin, which helps keep your blood sugar within a normal range.
- Get plenty of fiber— It may help you reduce your risk of diabetes by improving your blood sugar control, lower your risk of heart disease, and promote weight loss by helping you feel full. Foods high in fiber include fruits, vegetables, beans, whole grains, nuts, and seeds.
- Go for whole grains—Whole grains may reduce your risk of diabetes and help maintain blood sugar levels. Many foods made from whole grains come ready to eat, including various breads, pasta products, and some cereals. Look for the word "whole" on the package and at the first few items on the ingredients list.
The signs and symptoms of Type 1 diabetes in children usually develop quickly, over a period of weeks. Look for:
Increased thirst and frequent urination. As excess sugar builds up in your child's bloodstream, fluid is pulled from the tissues. This may leave your child thirsty. As a result, your child may drink—and urinate—more than usual.
Extreme hunger. Without enough insulin to move sugar into your child's cells, your child's muscles and organs become energy depleted. This triggers intense hunger.
Weight loss. Despite eating more than usual to relieve hunger, your child may lose weight—sometimes rapidly. Unexplained weight loss is often the first sign to be noticed.
Fatigue. If your child's cells are deprived of sugar, he or she may become tired and lethargic.
Irritability or unusual behavior. Children with undiagnosed type 1 diabetes may suddenly seem moody or irritable.
Blurred vision. If your child's blood sugar is too high, fluid may be pulled from the lenses of your child's eyes.

Alcatel SA announced Wednesday it had completed the sale of its microelectronics division to STMicroelectronics NV (STM).
The announcement followed Monday's approval by the European Commission of the 390 million (US$382.5 million) acquisition of Alcatel Microelectronics NV by STM.
As part of the deal, the two companies will collaborate on the development of DSL (digital subscriber line) chipsets for high-speed data communication, to be sold on the open market, the companies said in a statement. STM will also operate as a preferred supplier to Alcatel, extending their long-standing strategic alliance.
Alcatel Microelectronics designs, manufactures and markets semiconductor components mostly for the telecommunication, automotive and peripheral markets. In 2001, the company posted sales of around 350 million.
Amsterdam-based STM also develops and produces semiconductors for a wide spectrum of sectors. In 2001, the company's net revenue was $6.36 billion.
STM was recently chosen to supply silicon sensors to the Cern, Switzerland-based European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN), which is conducting research into elusive nuclear particles.
On Monday, the Commission acknowledged in a statement that while STM will become the market leader in Europe for ADSL (asymmetric DSL) chipsets, the company "will not have a dominant position." The Brussels authority said STM will "face competition from strong rivals," notably from U.S. suppliers Globespan Virata Inc. and Analog Devices Inc.
In its ruling, the Commission took into consideration the "instability in market shares" of companies in this sector over the past few years, the loss of market share by Alcatel Microelectronics in particular and the "lack of significant barriers to entry" by other players.

:Summer Sweaters:
Top Three Summer 2018 Essentials
Forget everything you're hearing about the trends for summer.
I've got all you need right here.
It's just three simple things.
- Super Goop Sun-Defying Sunscreen Oil w/ Meadowfoam This is an amazing daily body oil that gives my skin the perfect glow. The scent is a super light citrus so it's not overpowering or too "beachy." The best part - it's SPF 50. Protect that skin, people!
- Adorable Cans of Wine For fireworks. For movies in the park. For picnics. Cans of sparkling wine sound effervescent. This particular white is from Trader Joe's. My coworker is originally from Chicago so every now and then her family brings her the best of TJ's booze. While I didn't LOVE this, I love the idea of cute cans of wine. We're going to try another type to see if it's any better. In the meantime, anybody out there have access to Trader Joe's outside of archaic af Pennsylvania? Have you had their wine? What's your fav?
- Summer-Weight Sweaters My obsession started last summer with this striped sweater from the Woolen Mill. It's only grown since. Something about sweaters and shorts makes me the happiest. During my last excursion to The Woolen Mill, I picked up two more, including this cable knit lovely. Can you picture the fire pit? The boat at sunset? I'm so ready for it.
Simple, right? You can never go wrong with shimmery skin protected from the sun, cold wine and snuggly sweaters.

|Today's Scripture: Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh. James 5:8
Why is your heart so integral to your Christian life? After all, only God can see it. So, even if there are things there that should not be, aren't they protected by whatever you allow others to see? Isn't the heart both physically and spiritually within your control?
The trouble lies within the power the heart possesses over you as a person. God's Word states, "For as a man thinketh in his heart, so is he." All of those hidden thoughts, emotions, and desires become you. The heart is the place where depravity can abide and then defile every circuit. Think about what happens when you have an infection in your blood…the heart pumps it all over your body. The spiritual heart does the same thing with sin.
"The New Testament teaches that no man or woman is safe apart from Jesus Christ because there is treachery on the inside….Never trust your common sense when the statements of Jesus contradict it…. Never take yourself to be good. Natural goodness will always break, always disappoint, why? Because the Bible tells us that "the heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?"" – Oswald Chambers
The answer to every spiritual heart problem we experience is Christ. Allowing God to change your heart, filling it with His Word, the correct perspective, motives and godly counsel will change your life. "The true nature of a man's heart according to the Bible is that expectation and hope. It is the heart that is strengthened by God (Psalm 73:26), and Jesus Christ said that he came to "bind up the broken hearted." The marvel of the indwelling spirit of God is that He can give heart to a despairing man." – Oswald Chambers
Although it is susceptible to great temptation and destruction, the heart is also a place capable of much good. It is where spiritual vitality can be spread throughout the personality. Whether it be good or bad, your body will follow what your heart dictates. Your decision-making, actions, reactions, and emotions depend on what you decide to allow into your heart today.
Devotional by Pastor Jim Scudder, Jr.

What Will Be the Sign?
"Look at popular Christianity and you'll find that what many people want out of faith is not a way to relinquish control. Many Christians don't live as though they believe God is in charge even when they don't understand how it's all going to work out. Instead, people often look to faith for a way to order their existences…a way that will inoculate them against pain.
"But we trivialize the gospel when we convince ourselves that it's possible to be a disciple of Jesus without it ever costing us anything."

All the loans include different options resembling various rates of interest, payment terms and conditions, borrowing limits and even the eligibility standards. While the United States has long been a small business initially is a precedence of the economy on the state degree. LendingClub is a better option than among the other online lenders as a result of their rates of interest are lower than some other options out there, however they nonetheless aren't as low as you would possibly get from a standard financial institution in case you have good credit score.

Compared to their later BBC Christmas shows, the 1969 Morecambe and Wise Christmas Show was a rather modest affair. After reaching an early peak in 1971, they (together with writer Eddie Braben), obviously felt the need to try and make each successive Christmas show better than the last – with bigger production numbers, more impressive guests, etc.
But when the 1969 special was transmitted all this was in the future, so what we have here is basically an extended version of one of their normal shows. It's still hugely enjoyable, but there's few of the stand-out moments that their later Christmas shows would become famous for.
There's plenty of guests though. Fenella Fielding stars in the end play, whilst Frankie Vaughan, Nina, Sacha Distel, The Pattersons and Kenny Ball and his Jazzmen provide the music. Five musical guests might be too much for some people (some are certainly better than others) but for me, Nina and Kenny Ball are the pick of the guests .
Eddie Braben had started writing the Morecambe and Wise show in 1969, during the second series (following the departure of Sid Green and Dick Hills who had worked with M&W throughout the rest of the 1960's). As the second series was only four episodes long, the 1969 Christmas show was still very early days for Braben, but many of the familiar traits were already in place.
Braben's chief innovations were to turn Ern into a writer, giving a shape and form to the end of episode productions as well as softening the byplay between the two (the Green and Hills M&W tended to be rather more combative).
Chief pleasures in any Braben scripted M&W show always includes the opening byplay and the flat sketch. This opening sees Ern dressed in a hip and happening way. Since by December 1969 the Swinging Sixties had run their course, he looks even more ridiculous than if he'd been dressed that way in 1967, which I presume is part of the joke (although from the modern perspective it's possibly not as clear).
There's plenty of great lines here as Ern tells Eric, "A couple of nights ago, I had a happening. I freaked out in the King's Road. Pow! I went to this discotheque. I met this dolly bird and we really moved it!". Whilst Ern is chuntering away, Eric remains fascinated by his coat, "Does it tug when you go past a lampost? Now, promise me one thing, Don't ever go to the countryside wearing that coat. If a big lusty farmer sees you, you've had it. You'll be dipped and sheared before you know where you are".
In the flat sketch, Ern is taking a bath and of course Eric has to interrupt. Ern's far from pleased ("You did this the last time I had a bath") to which Eric replies, "You've got a good memory". Eric's also impressed with Ern's chest hair. "By golly, aren't you hairy? That is hair, that, isn't it? Thick hair all over your body. I wouldn't have had a bath if I were you. I would have got dry cleaned".
Kenny Ball and his Jazzmen were a reguar feature on M&W's shows dating back from their time at ATV earlier in the 1960's and they'd continue to pop up during their BBC shows for a number of years.
The lovely Nina appears to sing Do You Know How Christmas Trees Are Grown? which had featured in that years James Bond film. This begins a short-lived tradition (Shirley Bassey appeared on the 1971 M&W Christmas show to sing Diamonds are Forever).
Elsewhere, the ventriloquist dummy sketch is incredibly stupid, which probably explains why I like it so much.
Fenella Fielding is suitably alluring as Lady Hamilton playing opposite Ern (and Eric) as Lord Nelson. The playlets always tend to drag a little (some like the John Thaw/Dennis Waterman one seems to last forever) but this isn't too bad and at least it allows Eric the opportunity to dress up as Long John Silver.
A modest start then, but the 1970 show would see the stakes raised with a notable increase in the quality of the guest stars.

Have we got a GREAT author line-up for you this fall, dear readers. First up, we've got an issue examining the school library as an incubator for our democracy. Hot on its heels, the October issue will focus on Making, where you can look forward to a fabulous new article by Melissa Techman and Lars Holmstrom looking at fostering a maker culture across the curriculum. To whet your appetite, we thought we'd share this article by Melissa from our February 2016 issue. How do you involve your students in creative library work? Let us know!
Whether or not your library has enough staff, there are compelling reasons for involving students in the work of the library. The widespread interest in makerspaces and student tinkering has pulled students into libraries, giving them new creative roles. Including students in design decisions and outreach projects builds their sense of ownership and increases their interest in libraries in general. Not only do these efforts connect the school community in new ways, but there are easy advocacy benefits as well.
Be Open to Clubs and Informal Groups
Open up your library as much as possible. If you're in K–5, keep working toward a flexible schedule, if you don't already have one. In high school, welcome lunch groups and students with study hall periods. Enlist students who are already in the library but also seek out those who aren't and invite them in. I have an informal group of 30 students I call Design Crew. We meet occasionally and I email them requests and solicit ideas. Everyone who contributes in any way is a member. Students making things for the library is new for my school, but I'm seeing growing interest.
There is a new sound studio in the library. Students are recording, remixing, making podcasts, and working on sound effects for the theater department. The musicians and poets who use it are the target audience for some posters and video tutorials on copyright and remix rights. Instead of making my own, I'm asking some of the students to do the research and come up with guidelines. We can share these products with the school and offer them to other schools that we Skype with or share sound files with.
The Drone and Model Aircraft Club has been an unexpected delight, meeting several times a week in our makerspace room. Sometimes they're inside tinkering and flying tiny quadcopters, and when the weather is good they're outside at lunch. They're an inclusive bunch, and welcome curious newcomers. They can't wait for our laser cutter to be installed, so I'll be asking them to make a basic training guide.
The Creative Writing Club meets in another room but has agreed to plan and offer a blackout poetry event in the spring. They're a huge group and I'll be reaching out to them several times this year to see if they'd like to organize some talks on fanfiction or help with free writing events.
Fight the Urge to Buy All Your Signs and Posters
There are some really nice posters from ALA and bookish sites, but use them sparingly. Art, photographs, and authentic or quirky touches are best. Elementary libraries often feature wonderful student work and act as the central galleries of their school. I had some great lunch bunch artists and display helpers who made my former library really come to life. In my new position in a high school, I'm slowly getting traction with sourcing student-produced items. I'm patient, but Design Crew is still the email version of herding cats!
Visit art classes and ask for photos of 3D work, copies of paintings, and enlargements of prints. Ask the photography and digital imaging teachers if you can speak to their classes briefly. Show classes the kind of thing you're looking for and tell them you know they can do better. I held up a poster I made about reference help at the library (a Word doc that our county's library support services enlarged very cheaply). Students charitably agreed that it was good but not great, and they're starting to email me photographs and give me advice about signs and displays. As users, students are perfectly suited for figuring out what information works best on signs, or in how-tos, and they need practice thinking about themselves as users.
Many libraries host art shows and displays, and I'm looking forward to seeing what that looks like at our school, but my approach is different. The displays and signs that students help with are separate from the traditional teacher-chosen art shows. It's slow at first, but as word spreads, students begin taking the initiative. Also, I'm starting to tap into talent from unexpected sources. One robotics team member sent me pictures from a recent hike and they are stunning; some gorgeous nature shots really make a difference in our windowless library. Photography teachers have me on their radar, but word is spreading outside their classes.
Students Can Help Research Creative Projects
A student working at the WAHS Squad (student-run technology help desk in the library—a big help in a 1:1 school) overheard me wondering about LEDs, circuits, and e-textiles. We started talking and a small group of students offered to research prices, resistance of conductive thread, and test some products. It was wonderful to see their enthusiasm and I'm planning to help them shape the results of their research into a student guide to wearable tech. Similarly, after I show classes some of the resources in the Digital Public Library of America, I plan to ask for volunteers to investigate "on-ramps" to contribute content to DPLA, as well as the Internet Archive.
Often students are willing to talk or look something up, but reluctant to write or produce something that's not "for a grade." In K–5, I found some enthusiasm for blogging, but it was hard to sustain without a lot of support from classroom teachers. In high school, I'm hearing a lot of "I hate to write." I'm beginning to see that what they mean is "we don't enjoy writing school essays." One way I've found to pull writing out of some students is to interview them. I come up with some questions, take notes, and tidy up the results. It often produces really good articles; the students are knowledgeable and good communicators—they just don't see that these elements are at the heart of good writing.
Outreach—Fun, Connections, and Advocacy
There are lots of ways to involve students in outreach. At all levels, students can help document and promote library events, as well as make simple posters and booklists. Other ideas I hope to try:
- Having students design surveys for the school community and younger students, with survey teams available to Skype and discuss findings with younger students and other schools.
- Readers advisory outreach: teens provide "if you like ____" articles for the local newspaper.
- Events in which the library is a center for co-creating art objects with younger students (could be virtually, via mail, or through physical exchange and delivery).
- Having students make kits for our library, younger kids, or public libraries (sketching kit, bug-watcher kit, etc.). Each kit could include a book and simple activities.
- Maker outreach, in which students visit nearby schools and offer craft and electronics activities, like light-up cards with simple circuitry.
- Students teach others how to make screencasts or make how-to cards for library resources.

Held Hostage By a Mouse
That is, until an unwanted guest showed up.
There is now, officially, residing with us, a MOUSE. A live mouse. And not really a tiny mouse. He's pretty big. And really creepy. And his tail has got to be like a foot long. I think it's like one of those mice that are in NYC. My brother saw him first when he was in the shower (my brother, not the mouse). So, of course we all ran to the bathroom to see the mouse.
Somehow, in the hysteria of that moment, I had my wits about me enough to grab my camera and record the event. Harrison (my brother) and Mark got the brilliant idea to spray the mouse with carpet cleaner. Because, I mean, who would want to get sprayed with carpet cleaner, right? Surely the mouse would retreat. So there we are, all crowded in the bathroom, carpet cleaner flying, me screaming, Harrison in the shower, and the dogs wondering what in the world was going on.
So what happened? The mouse retreated (I'm sure only temporarily) back into THE CEILING. So that when it's my turn for a shower, he can make another appearance and trap me and try to get me back for him getting sprayed with carpet cleaner. I know that's what is going to happen.
So, you wanna see the video? Yeah, I thought you might. Please excuse the extreme loudness of my voice. Here it is:
Happy Monday!

oh no......i hate mice!!!!!! i would have moved out!!!!! :)ReplyDelete
stopping by from SITS.
hope you have an uneventful mouse week!!!!!!
As I offered before ~ HOLLER if you want me to come get it. I will be inclined to set him free (outside of course) if he made it through the carpet cleaning. LOL.ReplyDelete
Gross gross gross!!!! Even thinking about a mouse makes my skin crawl.ReplyDelete
ha, when i was in college, i ALWAYS had mice. eventually my friends and i decided to stop resisting and accept the mouse as just another roommate. we named him cuthbert and we played games together. it was a strange relationship.ReplyDelete
Keep the tongs handy...it's only a matter of time 'til the critter falls into the toilet!ReplyDelete
We had mice in our garage for a while and I made my husband kill them all. That is, until I saw one for myself and decided they were too cute to kill. So i made the husband stop killing them. And then they ate a whole through my garage and pissed husband off. After that I told him he could kill them again.ReplyDelete
If the mouse does join you in the shower, make sure he doesn't go down the drain. That can cause serious plumbing issues. I know from experience!
I would have been freaking out. I'm sure you did much better than I would have done. Creepy crawly/furry things and me do not get along.ReplyDelete
Totally scared the socks off of me. Seriously. Terrifying.ReplyDelete
Oh my word!!! I am squealing from over here!!! I once had a mouse....they gave me a "glue trap" to catch him and it was YUCK. He did eventually get stuck on there, but I didn't sleep til he did. Still makes my skin crawl to think about it!! Hope he goes away---NOW!ReplyDelete
I would have to move out until I knew for SURE that the mouse was gone. I curled up in a little ball and starting rocking when I read this post! AHHHHHH!ReplyDelete
Oh NOooooo!!!I DO NOT do mice! Our last apartment had 1 and he was SO annoyingly smart! We tried like traps basically on every sq inch! and he still managed! uhmm yeah we moved out! before we had to pay extra rent for our "guest" lol Good Luck with yours!ReplyDelete
I would DIE!!!ReplyDelete

You'll be able to help the HubPages group spotlight top quality content by rating this reply up or down. In most local actual property markets there's anyplace from a number of hundred actual property brokers to a number of thousand actual property brokers. There are real property pricing errors that seller's have to avoid as a result of overpricing a home creates a dangerous impact! So within the final evaluation, it turns into clearer that a multitude of things must be taken into consideration when figuring out the present state of California actual property's honest pricing.
Having said that, larger companies now have in place administration strategies, together with advance pricing agreements (APAs) with not less than one tax authority. International transfer pricing tax is a priority of multinational companies and their tax specialists as a lot as it is something all business house owners need to ponder on. The chances of pricing your private home very excessive and promoting it to an uneducated buyer is slim.
So when pricing your private home on the market, remember it's not only a return in your funding or passing alongside prices to the subsequent man. While the marketplace for $a hundred million properties has been established, the pricing of such properties is difficult by the novelty of the market and the dearth of data about the targets of related potential patrons for each such property at the exact time it hits the market.
A better strategy relies on locating a property with pricing at an 80{5535427b3c0df08fcefab04ca372694400a30c7e5503816b8d8756b6f5c57bba} mortgage-to-worth ratio (LTV) for a mortgage amount with month-to-month payments at roughly 31{5535427b3c0df08fcefab04ca372694400a30c7e5503816b8d8756b6f5c57bba} of a buyer's month-to-month gross income. You possibly can easily Google"' a whole checklist of tax havens with click on of the pc-mouse, as I'm allotted solely restricted hub actual property for this text.
If it was as simple as itemizing a home for what Zillow's Zestimates" say a home is price, there can be no need for actual estate brokers. To address a number of the weaknesses of the generic median sales value as a measure of market worth, Karl Case and Robert Shiller developed the Case-Shiller indices for measuring market developments. When selling your private home, attractive pricing and packaging are arguably the two most basic essentials.

For years the yellowing papers and notebooks lay untouched in the garden shed where Roald Dahl dreamt up his children's stories.
But now, for the first time, Dahl's drafts, jottings and letters are being sorted and catalogued, giving fascinating glimpses of the genesis of some of his most popular characters and a fresh insight into the author's mind.
Among the details that might take Dahl aficionados aback is the revelation that the author first imagined the hero of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory as a black boy and the piece of fruit in James and the Giant Peach as a huge cherry.
It has also emerged that Matilda died at the end of an early version of her story rather than living happily ever after, while only at a late stage was the child in The BFG named after Dahl's daughter, Sophie.
After Dahl died in 1990 his family and friends were reluctant to set foot in the hut at the bottom of the garden, which had been his private den.
But the family has decided that the archive ought to be a centrepiece of a centre that is due to be opened next year in Great Missenden, south of London, where Dahl lived. The centre will tell Dahl's life story and include classrooms, reading rooms and interactive displays designed to encourage children and adults to read and write.
The documents, full of spelling mistakes, crossings out and Dahl's scrawly handwriting, have been moved from the shed into the writer's old snooker room where they are being read and preserved for posterity.
There have been many surprises, not least the early drafts of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
In one the story had the politically incorrect title, given the hero's colour, of Charlie's Chocolate Boy.
During the tour of Willy Wonka's factory, he becomes covered in chocolate.
By the third version the story was closer to the published version in which all the children except Charlie, by now a white boy, meet sticky ends.
Sophie Dahl was surprised when it was discovered that in an early draft of The BFG, the child who befriends the big friendly giant was a boy called Jodie, rather than a girl named Sophie. —

Lauren Spierer: Private investigator apologizes for comparing Bloomington, Ind. chief to Gomer Pyle
With the search for their missing daughter about to enter its fifth month, Robert and Charlene Spierer have hired a retired New York City detective to help in the investigation.
So far, the move has turned up more insults than leads.
Former New York City police Detective Richard "Bo" Dietl apologized Monday on "Imus in the Morning" to "the great state of Indiana and Bloomington" for comparing the city's police chief to the TV bumpkin "Gomer Pyle" on Friday.
"I feel bad. Sometimes I open my mouth and don't think before I talk," Dietl said.
Lauren Spierer, 20, of Greenburgh was a student at Indiana University in Bloomington and disappeared June 3 after a night of partying with friends. After months of working with Bloomington police and hundreds of volunteers, the Spierers hired Dietl, who runs Beau Dietl and Associates, a security consulting firm.
In an appearance on "Good Day New York" on Friday, Dietl compared the head of the Bloomington Police Department to the well-meaning but naïve character Gomer Pyle from "The Andy Griffith Show" and its spinoff, "Gomer Pyle, USMC."
The show's hosts asked him about possible friction between local police and big city private investigators.
"Friction? I thought I was talking to Gomer Pyle out there," Dietl said of Chief Mike Diekhoff during the segment. "The thing is, I met with the chief ... and all I gotta say is, thank God for New York City detectives."
While Diekhoff brushed off the attacks ("I've been called worse," he told The Herald-Times of Bloomington), the Spierers distanced themselves from the spat.
Charlene Spierer told Fox59 News in Indiana: "We continue our search for Lauren since her disappearance on June 3. We are confident in the Bloomington Police Department and they have our full support."
Her husband, Robert, told the television station that the family hired Dietl to "supplement" the investigation.
He added, "We don't agree with the disparaging comments made without our knowledge and completely contrary to our opinion of the Bloomington Police Department."
Diekhoff said Bloomington police met with Dietl and two of his team members.
They wanted to work with Bloomington police and share details of the investigation, but Diekhoff said he rejected that request for a number of reasons.
For starters, he said Spierer's disappearance was the subject of an ongoing police investigation, and it's standard police policy not to reveal "pertinent information" from open investigations.
He also said a police partnership with a private agency is unethical and contrary to standard police practice.
Dietl and his investigators also contacted the FBI and other police agencies helping with the Spierer case. Those agencies refused to give Dietl case information for the same reasons.
"As he did not get the information he came seeking, I can only surmise that is the reason he described me as Gomer Pyle," Diekhoff said. "I don't agree with that characterization, but to use a time-honored phrase, maybe that is how they do things in New York."
Dietl is a regular on New York's radio and television channels, appearing on Fox News Channel shows and on Don Imus' radio show, among others.

Cavanaugh Investigations of Noblesville Indiana is quietly working other homicides in Indiana and has experienced no friction with law enforcement. If evidence is uncovered, it needs to be turned over to the police with the ultimate goal of prosecuting a criminal. It is true that smaller department often have the training, but not the experience to effectively handle major investigations at the drop of a hat. A major crimes task force for rural and low-crime areas is often a solution. The police cannot turn over evidence to any private citizen, including a private investigator nor should they. If police directed or cooperated with the actions of a private investigator, all the governmental protections afforded to potential criminals would attach and the Private Investigator who would then be bound, like the police, to constitutional limitations. It is regrettable that the friction developed between the NYC Private Eye and the police. Our agency normally contacts the case agent or agency head and informs them that an investigation is under way and that any evidence discovered will be turned over to the LEO case agent. This makes for a good working relationship.ReplyDelete

School Sweaters: Worth it or Not?
January 9, 2019
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
Should the SBO sweaters be required? In my opinion they should not. The money spent on these sweaters could be put to better use. The SBOs don't really wear their sweaters unless it is for assemblies or sometimes on Fridays.
Other clubs that buy these sweaters are LIA and PLT. As part of one of these clubs I can personally say that I have only worn my sweater once. I felt that the money could go to the school for more important things than sweaters. There are kids in the school that struggle with paying for fees and yet there hasn't been a stable system to provide the help and care that is greatly needed.
If the money was to go towards the school lunches we wouldn't have a problem with students hating the food at schools. Now, in high school it is hard to make that change because most students go out to lunch or bring home lunch, but what about the ones who eat school lunch? Sophomores can't drive yet so they stay at the school. It doesn't seem fair that theses kids feel forgotten.
The money could even be put towards the physical school itself. We are going to this school after all, shouldn't we care how it looks? Maybe the security could be improved for future possibilities. We could get better technology if we put in enough money to try to get the best. It is just something to think about for next year.

Extra ConsiderationMorality MattersExtra Consideration - RSS 2.0
James Portnow: I'm not sure what I can add that I haven't said in our episode on morality bars, but the short of my stance is:
A. If you peg morality in your mechanics to a 2d bar, your moral choices will be 2 dimensional. No writer can write around this, no level of voice acting is going to save you.
B. There are lots of non-extrinsic ways to do morality. If you look at EverQuest's faction system, they simply had different races judge the same action in different ways, so what the Dark Elves thought was righteous the Hobbits probably didn't find so awesome. This allowed the player to explore their own beliefs and gradually gravitate towards the groups that they agreed with.
Unfortunately this is expensive and most games simply don't have the design time, so we can always hop on the terrible stop gap of doing axial morality (a la D&D), but the real answer if you want to provide moral choice in a game (rather than just another way of leveling) is to make the actions in the game raise inherent moral questions. Unfortunately for this to really have an impact we'll have to wait for the audience at large to be willing to look at game mechanics as expressive and think about what they mean rather than just doing them to progress. Fate of the World is a good example of this (though it falls a little bit more on the serious games side).
C. There are ways to deliver moral choice with unsharded MMOs or with Social Games that offer possibilities perhaps unparalleled in stand alone games, but I'm not going to go into that here as it took my whole talk just to scratch the surface at GDC (I'm sure I'll rant about this somewhere on The Escapist sometime...).
Mikey Neumann: Points for the OpFor mention, Yahtzee.
You guys brought up some interesting things. I guess it comes down to what is your definition of morality within a game system? A case could be made that Zelda: Four Swords on the Gamecube had a real morality system because it was quite possible to screw the hell out of your fellow fuschia and tangerine Links by simply choosing to put your greed over their well being. But, that's meta-morality. I just have lingering guilt from friends that no longer speak to me for the crimes against Nintendo humanity committed in the name of Rupees.
Back to the seemingly RPG-heavy side of the morality argument. What do we gain out of this manufactured morality? Is it simply the belief that we can role-play on a massive scale where even seemingly innocuous choices can come back to have effects we had not imagined?
You know what game did that amazingly well for the time period? Chrono Trigger. I will never, for my entire gaming life, forget being put on trial and made to look a fool for choices I did not know the game was tracking. I stole that old man's lunch, and the game friggin' knew I did it. I felt that pang of guilt in my stomach when I realized, not only was I going to jail, but those bastards kind of had a point. I broke the law. But that was so effective because I was unaware the game even had a morality system in place to be tracking my transgressions. I simply thought I got away with being in the moment.
Come back next week for the rest of the discussion.

I will be graduating from Anthem College Online in March 2012 with an associates degree in medical billing and coding. Well, in WA State, you have to work in an office setting for at least 1 year before you are allowed to work from home for this occupation.
This will be the first time I have had a job since high school. The last job I had was in 1999, and it was a janitor at a local church in my hometown. After a year, I was laid off because the church didn't have enough money to pay me anymore. After that, I started to have more and more medical problems, and in 2001, was diagnosed with spastic paraparesis. Later on, I sustained a L 4-5 SCI while on a camping trip. I have not had a job since I graduated high school in 2000. I am on a special program from Social Security that is for people who are disabled (before the age of 23) and had a biological parent die prior to turning 23 years old, who worked and accumulated SS benefits. It is called the Adult Child Disability Benefit program, according to the papers I got when I first got on it.
I have heard that there is a program for people on SSDI, where they can receive the same amount of benefits they are already getting for 9 months as you do a trial run at working. Does anyone know how your benefits are affected AFTER this trial run is over? I can't live without my medical insurance (Medicare and Medicaid), due to the large amount of medical supplies I use everyday (enteral nutrition, incontinence supplies, catheters, ostomy supplies, wound care for the feeding tube site, and 12 different medicines).
If anyone had any information about working while on SSDI, it would help me out a great deal! I seriously want to work, but still want to stay healthy.

After The Bell: Referee Tony Stabile
What can we say but we have been fortunate to work with some of the best referees in the indies. We are happy to have Tony Stabile join our officiating team and take the time to go after the bell with us and give us a look at what makes him tick.
How old were you when you saw your first live wrestling match? Probably 12 or 13. Then WWF, and later WCW, would go to The Palace in Michigan. Fond memories of a lot of shows there.
Where did you begin your training and who trained you? I trained under Truth Martini at The House of Truth in Detroit Michigan. Can't say enough good things about the school. After my training was "finished", me and my bud Tony Vegas would still be up there all the time. The House was just the place we always wanted to be.
What is your entrance music? Any reason for picking this song? Well as a referee, I don't have any entrance music, but if I ever did, it would totally be "Total Eclipse of the Heart" by Bonnie Tyler. I think I'd have to edit it to give it a more workable intro, but damn does that track get me pumped! "TUUUUUURN AROOOOOUND! BRIIIIIGHT EYEEEES!" Me and Mr. Haystacks love it.
Who are some of your influences or people that you look up to in the business? I like to think every ref I've ever watched has influenced me in one way or another. Every show I'm at is a learning opportunity. I'm glad to be working with truly some of the best in the business, so there is always so much to learn.
Who would your dream match be against? If I could work in a match with anybody, that is a tough question. To be honest, it is well known that I am a complete fan of comedy wrestling. Guys like Colt Cabana, Grado immediately spring to mind. I'm always impressed and blown back by the stuff these guys can do. Dr. Cube is another one for me. I have done some work with Kaiju Big Battel in the past, but I really want to actually officiate a match with him. Scary thought, I know. And I'll say Undertaker as well, that's a good answer. I would imagine my career would be in a pretty good place for that to happen, ha.
Other than the dream match opponent, is there anyone that you haven't worked with that you would like to one day? I'm so grateful to the people I have worked with and continue to do so, that I really do consider myself lucky to be where I'm at. I'm just going to continue to do my thing, work as much as I can, and eventually, I'll be able to have had a match with everyone!
What is something that not many people know about you? Well, I have no sense of smell, at all. That always seems to confuse people. Like if it comes up, people always doubt me. Like, why would I lie about that? Believe me, it would be freakin' cool to have my smell back, but until then I just got nothing. But to be fair, it does make long car rides and locker rooms more bearable. Success!
Finish this statement, if I wasn't involved in wrestling I would be…. Oh, I don't know, working some job I don't like, having a career in a field and saving for retirement, more free time to see my friends and family. But hey, who needs that?! Let's make some wrestles!

Take Your IRL Pet with You, Anywhere!
PetLove was an app for pet owners and animal lovers to carry a virtual, but still pet-able, extension of their pet wherever they go! The idea came from watching my girlfriend wiggle her finger on a photo of her cat while we vacationed out of town. So I thought a virtual image of her pet that responded to petting was probably the next best thing.
- Upload a photo of your pet
- Tap markers for the facial features
- Swipe your pet to hear a purr, or find someone else's pet and see whose pet is the most popular!

Shane Grammer
Nov 25, 2009 05:34AM
● By Wendy Sipple
Photo by Dante Fontana
To paraphrase the ancient philosopher Confucius...if you choose a job you love...you will never have to work a day in your life.
That pretty much explains the thinking of Shane Grammer. This self-described "urban modern artist" has turned his art into his business or, is it the other way around?
Grammer knew pretty early in life he wanted to be an artist and that he was good at it. "I would immerse myself in school art projects," Grammer admits. Although he dabbled in art throughout school, his passion really hit while attending Butte College in Oroville, CA. While walking along a corridor he caught a glimpse of the '80s PBS documentary Style Wars about graffiti artists. He was moved by the art of graffiti, not the illegality of it. "Graffiti taught me to be a modern artist." Grammer says, "It showed me how to color outside of the lines." He then made his way to San Francisco, where the graffiti art he experienced there really opened up his eyes. "We did nothing illegal," Grammer explains, "and I really learned how to use color." He is not only inspired by spray painted images, masters like Michelangelo, and even children's art can motivate Grammer's creative juices. "I like to say I am an out-of-the-box artist," he says.
It is hard to define Grammer's work; he explains it as a mix of "cartoony," whimsical and realistic urban looks. Since the mid '90s he has broken new ground in the themed environment industry. He developed and mastered processes to bring the three dimensional art to life. "I believe I was created," Grammer explains, "to be a creator." He is so excited and enthusiastic about his work, he cannot wait until his daughters, Elliana and Sophia, can join him in the studio. He is also planning on a series of books and videos to encourage others to follow their dreams as artists.
His work is renowned and can be seen around the country and internationally. Installations by his company SG Studios and his personal artistic work are featured in public venues from New York City to locally in the Sacramento area. His work also brightens children's orphanages in Mexico and Lima, Peru. "My pursuit is to have my art bring out emotions in people," Grammer says.
When the non-denominational church Rock of Roseville built their new campus, Project Manager John Vaccaro asked Grammer, a longstanding member of the congregation, to design and build several age-appropriate children's areas. "We gave Shane the freedom to do what he wanted," Vaccaro says, "and we were very happy with the results."
Former Starbuck's barista and construction worker, Ryan Eiferd, has been assisting Grammer for nearly three years and enjoys working with the artist. He works on all aspects of the art projects from concept to final installation. "Being creative is hard," Eiferd admits, "but the work is fun!"

Slow Cooker Stuffing Recipe – free up oven space! [VIDEO]
This slow cooker stuffing recipe will free up valuable oven space on Thanksgiving — and it will quickly become a favorite. No more dry stuffing!
Stuffing, dressing, whatever you want to call it…it's hands-down my favorite part of Thanksgiving. (I mean, in terms of food. Because obviously I like my family more than stuffing. Most days.)
There are a thousand different variations of stuffing. Some like it with sausage, some with cornbread, some with apples, some with giblets, some like it gluten-free and made with quinoa.
I love quinoa, but no…just no. This is no place for quinoa.
The verrrry best part of this stuffing? It's made in a slow cooker. So technically since it isn't stuffed inside a turkey, it should be called dressing, but to me, stuffing is stuffing…it the bird, or in the slow cooker. Anyways, stuffing in a slow cooker. Each time I make this, I'm more and more convinced it is THE WAY to go. Here's why:
- Slow cookers are amaaazing. But that's not really a real reason.
- Turkeys are BIG. Right? They take up tons of space in the oven. So until I have that dream kitchen with six ovens (ha!), I want to free up that valuable oven space for the bird and other delicious sides.
- Have ya ever had dry stuffing? Ick. What a waste of calories. In the slow cooker, you'll end up with super moist and perfect stuffing.
- End time is pretty flexible. Things are harder to screw up when you're using a slow cooker. So if your turkey isn't quiiiiite ready yet, no worries! The stuffing will be juuuust fine.
It takes a little time to prep this stuffing, but it's not difficult. Just a little time consuming to chop the vegetables and herbs. But you could do the chopping the night before if you want. And once you get it all thrown together, you can completely forget about it for 6+ hours and focus on other parts of the big dinner.
Make sure to hit play to watch the short video for step-by-step directions of how to make this slow cooker stuffing recipe!
