NATIONAL HARBOR, Md. — The Boston Red Sox won the American League East but were swept in the first playoff round. The Chicago White Sox slapped a downward-facing arrow on their ballpark and watched their crosstown rivals win the World Series. These teams, you might say, were ideal partners for the trade that jolted the winter meetings.
The Red Sox and the White Sox agreed to a deal Tuesday that sent the ace left-hander Chris Sale to Boston for a package including infielder Yoan Moncada, Baseball America's minor league player of the year. The Red Sox add Sale, a five-time All-Star, to a decorated rotation. The White Sox start over.
"When you have a chance to win, you want to give yourself every opportunity to do so, and this deal improved us," said Dave Dombrowski, Boston's president for baseball operations. "Short of just a total giveaway of your system, or making moves that you don't think are smart, I think you go for it."
Sale joins a rotation with two Cy Young Award winners (David Price and Rick Porcello) and two others who were All-Stars last summer (Drew Pomeranz and Steven Wright). The Red Sox have Clay Buchholz and Eduardo Rodriguez for depth. Improving their rotation was not a great need, but Sale is a difference maker.
In the past five seasons, just one major league pitcher has a lower E.R.A. than Sale's 3.04 and has more strikeouts than his 1,133: Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Kershaw has a $215 million contract. Sale is under club control through 2019 for $39.5 million.
"We just thought that this made us that much better," Dombrowski said, "but we didn't have anybody else that we were pursuing whatsoever, because we didn't think there was anybody else even close."
The Red Sox had so many prospects that they almost felt obliged to grab one of baseball's best pitchers. The need was not acute, but with Sale's talent and contract, Dombrowski could not resist. The Red Sox did not hire Dombrowski, during a dreary 2015 season, to stockpile prospects. They hired him for moves like this.
The Red Sox thought so highly of Moncada in 2015 that they gave him $31.5 million to sign from Cuba, and paid another $31.5 million as a penalty. Parting with him — and three Class A players, notably the hard-throwing starter Michael Kopech — is consistent with Dombrowski's strategy.
Dombrowski has already traded high-impact prospects for Pomeranz and closer Craig Kimbrel. Last winter he gave $217 million to Price. The Red Sox have won three championships in the last 13 seasons, and the next cannot come soon enough. This is the kind of organization the Yankees want to be: so flush in prospects and payroll space that it can pull off nearly anything to improve the team.
Second place means nothing in deals like this, but the Washington Nationals took the silver. While they continue to pursue Pittsburgh center fielder Andrew McCutchen, the Nationals headlined their Sale proposal with a top young pitcher, Lucas Giolito, and a dynamic Class A outfielder, Victor Robles. But they would not part with Trea Turner, the rookie outfielder/shortstop, for Sale.
"I really thought for sure he was going to end up in Washington," Mets Manager Terry Collins said. "I really did. We dodged a bullet."
The Sale trade was the second for the Red Sox on Tuesday. They also added a setup man, Tyler Thornburg, from Milwaukee for Travis Shaw and prospects. Trading two third-base options in one day would hurt most teams, but the Red Sox have a spare: Pablo Sandoval, the former World Series star for San Francisco, who returns from shoulder surgery.
Sandoval has been a bust in the first two seasons of his five-year, $95 million contract, but the Red Sox can absorb it because five everyday players make so little: Outfielders Mookie Betts, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Andrew Benintendi, shortstop Xander Bogaerts, and catcher Sandy Leon combined to make less than $3 million last season.
With bargains like those, the Red Sox think they can stay under the $195 million luxury-tax threshold. Sale's light contract helps.
"He's a good pitcher no matter what," Dombrowski said. "But he's a good pitcher on a club-friendly contract."
The White Sox, meanwhile, have an ideal chance to rebuild as Chicago basks in the afterglow of the Cubs' first championship since 1908. The White Sox have long resisted the notion, preferring instead to win with Sale. It has not worked.
The White Sox have not won a playoff round since their World Series triumph in 2005. Their four-season losing streak is their longest since a 10-year stretch from 1941 to 1950. They signed a ballpark sponsorship agreement with Guaranteed Rate, a mortgage company that affixed its logo (a plunging arrow) to the stadium. The metaphor is apt.
The White Sox gave contention a try. They signed first baseman Jose Abreu, a Cuban defector, before the 2014 season. In the past two winters, they have added David Robertson, Melky Cabrera, Todd Frazier and the since-departed Jeff Samardzija. Last June they traded for James Shields. Yet they finished fourth in the A.L. Central — again.
"This path doesn't fit with how we've acted over the last several years," General Manager Rick Hahn said. "We've been in more of a win-now, patch-and-play type of situation. We feel the same frustration that White Sox fans have felt over the last few years."
The worst place to be, Hahn said, is caught in between. The Sale trade signals a new direction for the White Sox, and more trades will surely follow. The time for the Red Sox is now — and Dombrowski seized it, just because he can.

Psalm 67
The Reverend Phillip Blackburn
May 1, 2016
When I discuss a wedding with a bride and groom these days, I always ask them if they would like a sermon. I immediately follow this with the disclaimer that, for this pastor, a wedding sermon lasts anywhere from 3-5 minutes. I say this to them because of the wedding of my friends Toby and Marcie. Toby and I were good friends in seminary and when he got married to Marcie during our senior year, I was excited for him. Marcie was known for her big smile and the mass of brown curls that bobbed up and down on her head; and she was the perfect fit for Toby, who could be, shall we say, gloomy from time to time. So, anyway, I was a groomsman in that wedding and so I stood next to my friend as Marcie walked down the aisle, and I stood next to him when the preacher began his sermon, and I stood next to him when the preacher ended his sermon about 20 minutes longer. It remains, to this day, the longest wedding sermon I've ever heard. So I warn my brides and grooms that no sermon of mine will ever be that length.
But still, it was a good wedding and Toby and Marcie are a good couple, and I bring it up to you, not just because I will be officiating three weddings in the next few weeks, but also because I am upset and sad. This week I learned, quite to my shock and surprise, that Marcie, she of the big smile and the brown curls, is lying in hospice in Texas today. That she is losing her battle with cancer. I think of my friend Toby. I think of that wedding day, which I remember every time I consult with a couple. And I think of their two kids. I think of these things and for the one millionth time in my life, I think that's not fair. It's not fair that Marcie should die in her early 40s. It's not fair that Toby's Yin loses its Yang. It's not fair that those kids won't have their mom anymore. It's not fair.
You can't tell me you haven't had the same thought this week. I know that you have. It's a big problem for us, this issue of fairness, of equity. One of the first phrases we utter to our children as we raise them, when they first taste the bitter injustice of life, even though it is often delivered with gentle sorrows, is that life is not fair. It's not fair. Life is not fair. It's not fair that Marcie is sick. It's not fair that children in Syria are dying today because they are Syrian and not Turkish or Iranian or American. It's not fair that some of us are born rich and some of us are born poor. It's just not fair that things happen to people for no good reason other than the world isn't fair.
Yet in the midst of all of this, in the midst of all this inequity, unfairness, many of us still look to God. Have you ever wondered how that is possible? I do. I wonder it all the time. We see all this stuff. We know the world can be bitterly unfair, and yet we turn up here and we drink coffee and eat doughnuts and sing songs and pray and hug each other and worship our God. We, and we aren't the first to have this problem, mind you; we write things like Psalm 67. The psalmist must've been having a good day back then. It must've been a real humdinger, because if you know the Psalms you know the writers can get pretty dark. They are intimately acquainted with unfairness. They know its bitter taste. And yet they can produce something like this: "Let the peoples praise you, O God. Let the nations be glad and sing for joy."
God has blessed us. These are not just happy words, these are joyful words, offered, it would seem, from the depth of the psalmist's soul. How does he write them? How, in the midst of a world he knew to be bitterly unfair, in a world where cities could only exist with giant walls around them, where holy places could be ravaged, where all people died so young, how could he write these words? How can we read them? For some it is easy, but when the bitter taste of unfairness is on our tongues, these words can seem like parody. Praise God. Sing to God. God has blessed us. But the world is unfair.
The answer, I believe, to how we move along with all this in the midst of sorrow, suffering and catastrophe is embedded in the midst of this Psalm. Long before I knew about Marcie's illness the words had leapt out at me. "Let the nations be glad and sing for joy, for you judge the peoples with equity." It's practically the only line in the Psalm that isn't just about praise but instead speaks to the root of that praise. Why do we praise God? Why do we sing to God? Why do we believe God has blessed us? Because God is fair. And I can prove it.
We often complain about not getting what we deserve. We complain when breaks don't go our way or bad things happen, and surely we sometimes have good cause to lodge complaints. But in theological terms, the last thing we should want is for God to be "fair." If God were "fair," then God would look at our lives, make a list of good work and bad work and then make a decision. And for pretty much all of us, we would not like the results of that decision. God knows us. God knows that we aren't very good at being good. Most of the time, we are indifferent at best, bad at worst. So God, in God's love and judgment, is not fair. God chooses salvation. God chooses to come into this world as a simple guy from the middle of nowhere. God chooses to teach us again how to live, and then God lets this world, in all its hate, anger and bigotry, kill the Messiah he has sent. And through this lens, through the lens of the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ, we are then judged. That isn't fair either. But that is what the psalmist means when he writes about equity. You, God, judge the people with equity. When it comes to God's judgment, we don't get what we deserve.
Now, these words can seem cold, or distant. I recognize that. I recognize that we suffer in this world. But God suffered in this world too. Jesus suffered in this world too. It's not that the world isn't fair. We are wrong when we say that. The world is broken. We are broken. We don't do it right; if we did, kids in Syria would be as safe as kids in America, no one would go to bed hungry, and Marcie would, in all likelihood, not be sick. But we don't do it right. The world is broken and we praise God and love God and hail God's blessings because we have hope that it won't stay this way. You won't always have to worry about your kids. You won't always feel like crying when you watch the news. God judges the people with equity, a fairness which is rooted in grace, and love, and peace. That is what our hope is.
I am sad today because for all the prayers and all the words Marcie is not going to live. She is going to die. And for the rest of my life my first pre-marital conversations will be bittersweet because the wedding I am silently referencing was her wedding. But I want to believe that no matter how broken our world is, no matter what happens to us or those whom we love, we will always have hope in God's equity, that we will always be able to praise God. When Toby and I exchanged messages this week he said, "We have been well provided for by God and our church family." His world is broken, as is ours, but it is, after all God's world. And God judges it with equity. Amen.

This grilled mushroom appetizer with bruschetta and goat cheese is an easy and healthier appetizer recipe that would be perfect for a barbecue!
It's Friday. I would normally be all 'it's FRIDAY!!!!', but not this time…Friday means that our stay-cation is coming to an end.
I haven't spent so much quality time with Ben and Kai in a loooong time. We've had so much fun together!
Out of all of the activities we've done, the free ones are definitely the best. We spent $40 on zoo admission only to have Kai want to play at the zoo playground…no interest in monkeys or tigers! One of my favorite things we've done is to get some burgers and eat them on the tailgate of the car while watching airplanes take off and land. An oddly fun activity!
So. Our stay-cation might be on it's way out, but at least we still have a few more weeks of summer left. And I plan on soaking up every minute of it, preferably with something yummy like this grilled mushroom appetizer in one hand!
Have you tried these zucchini caprese roll-ups? They are an easy, healthy appetizer, and my mom is nuts for them! I think they've been making their way through the Smithers BBQ scene.
She was visiting us a few weeks ago, and mentioned that she has a hard time finding easy, healthy appetizer recipes, so I felt inspired to make this easy grilled mushroom appetizer recipe.
The mushroom caps are stuffed with a super easy bruschetta, grilled up, then topped with goat cheese and basil. So ridiculously easy. And tasty!
I cooked these guys up on the grill (using my veggie tray), but you could also make them in the oven.
I don't want to admit to you guys how many I ate. OK, fine…All of them. Poor Ben didn't get a single mushroom cap! They are just too poppable. Translation: you're probably going to want to double or triple the recipe.
So. Healthy? Check. Easy? Check. Delicious? Check. I think I've got another one for you, Mom!
Grilled Mushroom Appetizer with Bruschetta and Goat Cheese
- 12 fresh whole mushrooms button or crimini
- 2 small plum tomatoes
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
- 2-3 tablespoons goat cheese crumbled
- fresh basil
- sprinkling of salt & pepper
- Heat barbecue to medium.
- Wash the mushrooms and pull out the stems. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the tomatoes, garlic and balsamic vinegar.
- Spray a BBQ vegetable tray well with oil. Gently spoon the bruschetta into the mushroom caps (you're going to want to discard as much liquid as possible) and arrange on the tray.
- Grill for 8-10 minutes, until mushrooms are cooked through.
- Immediately place a small spoonful of goat cheese on the warm bruschetta, scatter the basil leaves, and sprinkle with salt & pepper.
- Serve immediately.

This Week in the Shop we build small cabinet. Cabinet making epitomizes fine woodworking, as it rewards accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail. Cabinets can be found in the workshop, in the kitchen, as furniture, as built-ins. This cabinet build relies on the table saw and the router and showcases the versatility of shellac as a finish.
This week in my home shop I finished up a new bench project I developed for class at Nova Labs in Reston, VA. While simple in design and execution, it does involve a full suite of woodworking tools and a a custom jig to complete. This great intermediate project uses the Fab Five of a powered woodshop: table saw, band saw, miter saw, jointer and planer.

PUBLICATION: The role of foreign investment in Ethiopia's smallholder-focused agricultural development strategy
The Land Deal Politics Initiative (LDPI) has released a new working paper. LDPI Working Paper 2 examines the role of foreign investment in Ethiopia's smallholder-focused agricultural development strategy.
Recent foreign agricultural investment in Africa has generated a great deal of interest and criticism, with western media warning of a neo-colonial 'land grab'. This paper moves beyond this narrow assessment by examining the political and social dynamics of foreign agricultural investment in Ethiopia, a country which has figured prominently in recent debates. The paper links macro-level analysis regarding the types of projects and their role in the Ethiopian economy to case studies of investments at the micro-level, which examine changing patterns of land use and implications for displacement, employment and technology transfer. The paper concludes that the expansion of foreign investment in Ethiopia is part of a government move towards an export-led development strategy. As such, macro-benefits in terms of increased foreign exchange earnings come at the cost of increased micro-level risks to those living in the vicinity of new investments, in particular, politically marginalised pastoral populations in remote regions.

Well, mind control may be a good tool. The New York Times blogged about this lately, how LED lighting can be used to interfere with melatonin the hormone secreted from the pineal gland linked to sleepyness. Brings to mind the movie "From Beyond" by HP Lovecraft the mastermind behind Re-animator where scientists stimulated the pineal gland and opened up a parallel universe. Horrors for sure, link clickers beware. On second thought mind control might not work on zombies.
The CDC has put out the very useful guide how to survive a zombie apocalypse, but I might add a few tools. For one, weapons aren't mentioned much, and I have to say very important but really a last resort grab whatever you can.
If stranded in a farmhouse under attack, I'd want to stand beside my hero, Ben from Night of the Living Dead (played by Duane Jones a former English professor and the first African American actor portrayed as the hero in a horror film, for that matter cast in a major motion picture when the role did not specify the part had to be played by a black actor). Ben grabbed whatever he could, and since they only had a single shot gun, the biggest problem was keeping the zombies out.
And since I'm venturing in wild speculation, it just may be that now there is a way. The new scientist reported a company has developed something that will come in handy in the event of a zombie apocalypse, fingerprint activated locks. This company Dermalog Identification Systems in Hamburg, Germany while not intending to defend us from zombie attack seems to have the perfect device. Here's why: Apparently their sensors check to see how a finger reacts to being scanned. Living tissue blanches or changes color being that the blood is squeezed out of capillaries when its pushes on a surface.
From the article: living fingers absorbed LED light at 550 nanometres on first contact and then at 1450 nanometres as the skin blanched when fully contacting the sensor (Forensic Science International, DOI: 10.1016/j.forsciint.2011.05.014).
Dead fingers don't.
Of course, if the zombies simply claw through the door, we're right back where we started.
LED lights to the rescue, who cares about efficiency? On second thought, I think I'm staying inside for the 31st, locks already ordered. But I can spend that day switching to LED lighting for other reasons and (hopefully!!) leave the zombie control to someone else.
Happy Halloween!

Choosing a Cancer Care Team
Patients with head and neck cancer should receive treatment at high-volume centers from multidisciplinary teams with expertise in head and neck cancer. A head and neck cancer care team might include a medical oncologist, a surgeon, a radiologist, a radiation oncologist, a pathologist or cytologist, a nutritionist, a speech pathologist, a dentist and a psychologist. Some of these, such as a pathologist or a radiologist, will be selected on the patient's behalf by the cancer center or physicians' group you choose, and you may never meet them. Others you and your loved one will see throughout the cancer journey.
Since it is recommended that the primary caregiver go to doctor visits with the patient whenever possible, you will be an integral part of the health care team and should be comfortable working with your loved one's physicians as well. You can help your loved one think about what characteristics of care team members and treatment facilities are most important to him or her and assist in evaluating health care professionals and treatment centers based on those criteria.
We live in a wonderful world where there are people out there with the talents and technologies to deal with these problems. With every cancer case, we give those doctors information that gives the next person a better chance. With every surgery, they discover something new.Tony L. (oral cancer survivor)
More about choosing a cancer care teamThe articles in this section may help you assist your loved one to choose a cancer care team and treatment facility that meets his or her particular needs.

Arduino Iron Key - Project Details
A Arduino based portable HSM
A Arduino version of the Secure memory stick 'IronKey'. The Arduino acts as a HSM (Hardware Security Module) between the computer and the on board SD card shield. A Java app is used to send commands to Arduino. The Arduino enforces authentication and encryption using its on board EPPROM. After authentication, the Arduino encrypts and decrypts all of the data on the fly as it is written to a SD Card. After 10 incorrect password attempts the Arduino wipes its EPPROM destroying the Encryption key.

text: My mother, who is 97, fractured her hip and has been in a rehab/NH for the past 3 weeks. I am out of state, but have visited her there 3 or 4 times. She seems to be doing well in physical therapy with a walker. I have some issues, such as her phone being out of order for about 5 days, her laundry being stuffed in a plastic bag in her closet and not being done, as I had requested. I also put money in her account there for her to get her hair done, but nobody has contacted her. But these are housekeeping problems. The NH doc, with whom I have spoken, seems aloof and arrogant. I was told (by her) that she will not be at this meeting. That seems unusual to me. Should I contact my mother's assigned social worker at the place and let them know what the doc told me? What other questions should I be asking or be prepared to answer? My mom is mentally stable, and will also be at the meeting. She was living at an independent/AL facility prior in the independent part. I am assuming she will need an aide to be with her for a while right after she gets out. Any suggestions for me about what to expect at the meeting would be great. I was told in the "there will be a care meeting" letter that the meeting will be kept to 15 minutes because other residents' meetings are also scheduled for that day. 15 minutes does not seem like much time. Is this the norm?

About Us
When people think about Astrology, the first thing that usually comes to mind is the combination of a daily horoscope from a local newspaper, and a chart wheel filled with symbols that carry a certain meaning. In too many cases, this is followed by fear, mystification, or skepticism, especially if you have seen too many publicly displayed readings from astrologers with no proper education or ethical guidelines. We hope you were not one of many to be misguided by someone's dishonest "clairvoyant abilities" or the approach to Astrology that is shallow and based on rigid projections of the astrologer in question.
Our Mission
Here, at iZodiacSigns, we find it our imperative to respect certain ethical guidelines and rules of the astrological community that is growing day by day. Our website will provide you with information based on the position of your Sun, basic knowledge of compatibilities of certain archetypes from the zodiacal circle, and hopefully give you an in-depth explanation of challenges and the potential your personality needs to recognize in this lifetime. We are guided by the need to help others build a healthy perspective of other people and the world surrounding them, and believe that the best way towards fulfillment and a confident attitude is self-recognition.
Our Approach to Astrology
We consider ourselves to be Astrology professionals, and our vast experience, certifications, education, and knowledge serve to prove this claim. Still, as human beings we must be faulty and ignorant to some point, and it is one of our primal goals to learn and educate ourselves for as long as we work in this field. Astrology is our passion and our guiding star, and we hope to transfer some of the light we got from it into your life too. We will not predict your future with a hundred percent certainty, nor will we find it our goal to rearrange your life. Our responsibility is to provide guidance, help you find your own answers to questions that burn inside your heart, and give support to your decision-making process on the path of reaching for personal fulfillment.
Contact Us
If you have any questions about the content of this website, and wish to share any comments or insights, we are at your disposal and curious to hear your thoughts. We will do our best to be of assistance and reply to your emails as soon as possible.

Implementing a Food Safety Management Systemfsms gfsi food safety management system
Having a comprehensive HACCP system and having carried out hazard analysis and assessment is fundamental to the food safety management system. One of the first steps for an organisation implementing a Food Safety Management System will be to consider what are their customer requirements and what will need to be done to meet those requirements. Most customers will require a food safety management system to be certified to a recognised standard. These could include BRC, SQF, ISO 22000 or FSSC 22000, all of which are approved by the GFSI scheme.
Decide which food safety management system standard meets your customer requirements and buy a copy. This standard should be read and understood by key personnel. You should begin the entire food safety management system implementation process by the senior management preparing an organisational strategy. In this process food safety policies and objectives should be generated as responsibility for a food safety management system lies with senior management. At this stage the resource including personnel, infrastructure, training and work environment needed to implement, maintain and improve the food safety management system should be considered and provided.
The food safety management system documentation should be developed based on a study by your HACCP team. The HACCP team should be multidisciplinary and all functions of the business should be represented. The HACCP team should be suitably competent and are tasked with generating HACCP plans and associated documents, procedures and records that ensure the safe manufacture of your products.
The next step to implementing your food safety management system is communication and training. During the implementation phase all personnel should be trained, follow procedures and complete records that demonstrate the effectiveness of your food safety management system. Once your food safety management system is implemented, verification activities should be undertaken to demonstrate it is working effectively.
Once you have done that and found the system to be operating effectively you should arrange your assessment with your chosen certification body. At this point the certification body will conduct an audit and review your food safety management system and determine whether you should be recommended for registration. Once you have been approved you will receive a certificate confirming your food safety management system meets the requirements of your chosen food safety standard.

'Little Mermaid Jr.' gives several sea legs
ALTON — Take a journey with Ariel, Flounder and Sebastian with "The Little Mermaid Jr." which will be presented this week at Alton Middle School.
The production tells the tale of Ariel, a young mermaid who longs to discover life above the ocean's surface where she hopes to find true love. Before she can find her way to dry land, she goes against her father, King Triton's wishes and accepts assistance from an evil sea witch, who has ulterior motives. Ariel must convince Prince Eric that she's his one true love before the sun goes down on the third day. Performances start at 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 20; Friday Nov. 21; and Saturday Nov. 22 at AMS at 2200 College Ave. in Alton.
Because it is a "junior" production, it does differ from both the movie and the Broadway production. Primarily, the audience will not see Ursula die on stage and Prince Eric falls in love with Ariel even without her speaking. There also are several new songs, such as "Human Stuff," which is funny and upbeat, and "She's in Love" that's a doo-wop number about how funny people act when they fall in love. The big number still is fan favorite "Under the Sea."
AMS students who play the main characters are Sydney Neal as Ariel; Jayson Heil as King Triton; Audrey Neace as Sebastian; Grace Rathgeb as Flounder; Torre Simon as the Prince; and Mya Dunham as Scudder. The directors of the production are Melissa Sharpe, Debbie Kanyo, who is the music director and Derrick Davault, technical director and set designer. The students and teachers in the AMS Art Department have contributed to the production by crafting fish out of paper mache. More than 60 students are involved in the production.
Tickets are available at the door and cost $8 for adult and $5 for students.

We've been working extra hard lately searching for the latest and greatest music apps to share with you in our This Week In Music Apps series. In this installment, we have iOS, Android, and web apps.
Before diving in, take a look at some of our latest headlines from the world of digital music:
This Week in News and Analysis
- Video: The Gregory Brothers 'Songify' the Presidential Debate
- Will Neil Young's 'Pono' Player Really Make Music Sound Better?
- Jimmy Kimmel Live Crowdsources Musical Guests via Ourstage
- Rhapsody Rolls Out to LG, Panasonic, Samsung Smart TVs
- Step Aside, 3-D: Wirewax and the First 'Shoppable' Music Video

- Listen to Bon Iver Remix Winners on Spotify via Indaba
- Rdio Artist Program Pays $10 Per Fan; Snoop Lion Approves
- Eno and Chilvers Come Through Again with Deep, Immersive Scape App
BeatSpiral ($2): We've seen quite a few of apps for making beats, but BeatSpiral's original interface sets it apart. With simple gestures, you can swipe, spin, and twirl the colored spiral to loop samples splices, edit samples, crossfade, and record tracks. The app comes with its own sample library, but you can also input your own samples from iTunes (MP3, WAV, AIFF and M4A file formats).
TuneMatch (Free): Perhaps the greatest mantra of the digital music explosion has been that "music is social" — and for good reason. After all, many of us can probably think of at least one great friendship that began with a shared favorite song or a really good concert. With TuneMatch, you can look for your next musical soulmate by comparing your iOS music library with those of your friends, whom you can invite via email, using a compatibility score. The app also lets you recommend music to each other and make playlists from shared songs.
Taiko Drums Free (Free): Capturing the power of a Taiko drum on a phone or tablet seems like an impossible task, but the developers behind Taiko Drums Free have done a great job. The app's success lies in its sensitivity to your actual drumming. Case in point: the louder you hit the drums, the louder they sound. Just be careful not to hit too hard. The app also blends multiple strikes so you can create actual drum rolls instead of a succession of isolated hits, and it changes the pitch depending on where you strike. Check out this app if you want to create a big drum sound, or if you're just looking for a fun way to pass the time.
TunePad ($1): Who said making music had to be difficult? With TunePad, you can create your own tracks with the touch of a finger. Simply draw patterns on the grid by swiping your finger, and there you go — you're a musician. You can play with the intensity and speed of your tracks by changing the beats per minute (BPM). For those of you with loftier ambitions, download the TunePack using the in-app store to get more instruments.
Amanda Palmer (Free): On the heels of the release of her latest album "Theatre is Evil" comes the official Amanda Palmer app for Android (also available for iOS). Featuring tour dates, full-length songs, music videos, Twitter and blog updates, and photos, Amanda Palmer fans will definitely want to have this handy app. Although this app sticks to just the basic features typical of artist apps, the sheer fact that Amanda Palmer is active and innovative online means that you'll always have access to cool stuff. (Note: this app will be replacing the Who Killed Amanda Palmer app. If you've been using that, you'll want to switch over soon).
Joox.fm (Free): Joox.fm is a convenient web app allowing you to share and listen to music with your friends. To share music, create a playlist and invite your friends to listen to it on their own time. Alternatively, if you're looking for new music, join someone else's playlist. You can also start a "party" and actually listen to music with your friends in real time. Anyone can join a party provided they have a four digit access code. Guests can add songs to the playlist ensuring that everyone leaves the party happy.
Charts.fm (Free): If you've ever wanted to create your own music charts, now you can with Charts.fm. This web app lets you remix charts from 2,650 radio stations by choosing a specific time period and music genre, selecting radio stations you want to include, and defining how many entries your want on your chart. Once you've compiled your own chart, you can listen to it as a playlist.
Chirbit (Free): Chirbit offers a neat way to share audio recordings with your social networks quickly and painlessly. To use this app, simply upload a recording (MP3, M4A, OGG, MOV, AIFF, ARM, 3GP, WMA or WAV files are supported), and then you're ready to share it on Twitter, Facebook, blogs, or through email. Although similar to SoundCloud, Chirbit works less as an end destination and more as a tool for sharing. You can also upload audio recordings, including voice memos, from your smartphone, or record on the Chirbit site using a microphone and/or webcam.

This time, I only removed {{MergeState.IndexReaderAndLiveDocs}} and modified {{IndexWriter.mergeMiddle}} so that it fixes the merge reader in case its del count doesn't match the {{ReadersAndLiveDocs}} del count. There shouldn't be more contention as with the current trunk version. > SegmentReader.numDeletedDocs() sometimes gives an incorrect numDeletedDocs > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: LUCENE-4080 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-4080 > Project: Lucene - Java > Issue Type: Bug > Components: core/index > Affects Versions: 4.0, 4.1 > Reporter: Adrien Grand > Priority: Trivial > Fix For: 4.1 > > Attachments: LUCENE-4080.patch, LUCENE-4080.patch, LUCENE-4080.patch > > > At merge time, SegmentReader sometimes gives an incorrect value for numDeletedDocs. > From LUCENE-2357: > bq. As far as I know, [SegmenterReader.numDeletedDocs() is] only unreliable in this context (SegmentReader passed to SegmentMerger for merging); this is because we allow newly marked deleted docs to happen concurrently up until the moment we need to pass the SR instance to the merger (search for "// Must sync to ensure BufferedDeletesStream" in IndexWriter.java) ... but it would be nice to fix that, so I think open a new issue (it won't block this one)? We should be able to make a new SR instance, sharing the same core as the current one but using the correct delCount... > bq. It would be cleaner (but I think hairier) to create a new SR for merging that holds the correct delCount, but let's do that under the separate issue. > bq. it would be best if the SegmentReader's numDeletedDocs were always correct, but, fixing that in IndexWriter is somewhat tricky. Ie, the fix could be hairy but the end result ("SegmentReader.numDeletedDocs can always be trusted") would be cleaner... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

It's a significant shift in the education market space when manufacturers focus their efforts specifically on students. We have heard quite a bit about students bringing tablets into the classroom, faculty integrating tablets into curriculum, publishers producing educational titles for courses, and so on. Here's a step from the consumer electronics perspective: Samsung has created a "Student Edition" of their Galaxy Tab 2, and it is hitting the shelves at Best Buy, in time for a lot of back-to-school shoppers.

Tablets Now Targeting Students

Using Gaming Systems as Modern Learning Tools
The advancement of gaming technology from one generation to the next is mind-boggling. It's hard to believe that in what has become known as the 'Video Game Crash of 1983,' the industry virtually fell out of existence, with revenues dropping from $3.2 billion to $100 million in 1985. The cause of the market crash was also fertile grounds for the solution—a glut of subpar and poorly developed games and systems drove consumers away. The solution, therefore, was a focus on innovation and quality to woo consumers. Ultimately, the Nintendo 64 and Sony's Playstation reinvigorated the market in the mid 1990's. Microsoft entered the game and elevated competition with its Xbox in 2001, in side by side competition with the new Nintendo GameCube. It's hard to find solid numbers because the definition of video gaming can vary, but most estimates indicate that industry revenue is now over $20 billion a year. Current developments of the Wii and Xbox 360 prove that companies are still willing to innovate and invest to take their fair share of a very large pie. Market penetration is significant—sales estimates in the United States would indicate that over half of US households have at least one advanced gaming system. The likelihood of the market compressing again as it did in 1983 is slim to none. Consoles are advancing in technological capability much faster and in different directions than the home PC, tablet, and mobile device. Is there an implication in the advancement of these platforms for education? If LMS designers are open-minded, there certainly could be.
The concept of using a gaming console for learning is certainly not new. Pictured, an Xbox is employed at the AT&T Oaks Course outside San Antonio to help golfers lower their handicaps before actually embarking on the course. By using the Xbox Kinect, one can imagine that the same Xbox will soon analyze and advise the same golfers about their swing.
Another classic example is the evolution from Rock Band to Rocksmith. Whereas users once plugged a toy push-button guitar into their game consolses, all of their time invested was wasted when it comes to real-world application. With the advent of Rocksmith, the guitar used is now the real deal—meaning gameplay is translated to real-world skills. Though many critics pan the game and its effectiveness, it is only a first incarnation. If the market demands it, new versions will evolve that increase effectiveness.
More academic pursuits are already available. For example, "Let's Learn Japanese" (http://marketplace.xbox.com/en-US/Product/Lets-Learn-Japanese-Beginner/66acd000-77fe-1000-9115-d802585504ac) is an early venture into language learning. Microsoft also now partnering with Sesame Workshop and National Geographic to pitch the Kinect as a potential tool for 'embodied learning' that puts children right into the action (http://content.usatoday.com/communities/gamehunters/post/2011/10/microsoft–kinect–xbox-360-learning/1).
So how can the innovation and advanced interactive features of the current generation of game consoles be harnessed for higher education? The answer may lie in supplementing online learning environments rather than replacing them. Consider the strengths of the game console as a potential supplemental tool to bolster the weaknesses of the traditional LMS:
Ease of navigation and familiarity to users. Students who grew up interacting in a three-dimensional online world can easily translate those skills to academic challenges. If navigation through academic software mimics traditional RPG's with user friendly tools like Kinect and the Wii remote, there is one less hurdle to separate student from success. The fear of navigating a new online system is summarily removed.
Interconnectivity. Many games rely on the integration of game consoles with internet activity. For example, the Wii version of Club Penguin allows children to transfer their achievements and rewards to their online Club Penguin account, accessed through a web browser. All that is required is a network connection. Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure takes it one step further, and records data via RFID to figurines, which can then be synchronized online as well. The point is, if students can complete exercises, master objectives, and progress sequentially in course material on their game console, that information is very easily submitted and stored to an online LMS.
Standalone functionality. Every LMS is based on the assumption that students have consistent, high-speed internet connectivity. Furthermore, a high volume of server capacity is necessary for large institutions to support all students. Server downtime or network congestion can frustrate students attempting to frantically meet deadlines. If students can complete drill-and-practice work, view videos, and participate in simulations locally on their game console, and rely on internet connectivity only for the purpose of uploading and recording progress, the demands on network speeds and server capacity are reduced.
Availability and inexpensiveness. The processing power of an Xbox 360, for the cost of under $300, rivals most laptops (the custom CPU is a triple core processor running at 3.2 GHz) and the graphics power is naturally better (500 MHz GPU with 512 mb GDDR3 RAM). The amount of downtime due to viruses, hard drive failures, etc. becomes almost a non-issue compared to what students experience with their laptops. And as mentioned previously, a great many households already have access to game consoles.
I'm not suggesting that playing video games replace scholarly writing or course interaction in online LMS's. I am, however, suggesting that we can harness the power of the tools that already exist to provide an exciting and different way to engage students, taking full advantage of technology the PC world has not yet embraced. The PC is being left behind in the way people use technology today, and replaced with tablets, PDA's, and even game consoles. It's time for the world of education to innovate in these different spaces to engage today's learner.

jsb16 NP: #sbarbook Ch7: in which I flounder trying to get a handle on designing assessments to get at student understanding of velocity.
jsb16 NP: #sbarbook Ch7: http://t.co/SWlJUtB in which I try to get a handle on designing assessments to get at student understanding of velocity.
druinok Okay ladies and gents, who all is here for Ch 8 of #sbarbook?
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook Woohoo I am here, and twitter is working again for me suddenly!
jsb16 I'm sort of here #sbarbook. Haven't finished the chapter, though.
fourkatie Here for #sbarbook, but Twitter says I'm following 0 people so not seeing much!
druinok Okay, so any first thoughts on Ch 8? Do any of you use rubrics now when grading? #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook I have some bad ones I created that I used. After this chap I know why teachers before me used rubistar. consistency.
druinok I liked the idea that an explicit goal implies the criteria needed for the rubric, even before the task is designed (pg176) #sbarbook
druinok For me, the issue with rubrics is that it takes so long to get it perfected :( I did like their guide on how to set one up tho #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook and just because you give feedback with a rubric doesnt mean it has to be a grade. grade could come later after revision
jsb16 @druinok #sbarbook I use rubrics, but I've never happy with them. Not fond of Rubistar. I like @DataDiva's rubrics.
druinok @gwaddellnvhs I know w/ the AP rubrics, they start w/ a draft and use hundreds of student papers to revise #sbarbook
eduz8 MT I totally agree. Change them every time. @druinok For me, the issue with rubrics is that it takes so long to get perfect #sbarbook
jrykse Anyone able to get back on for #sbarbook?
druinok @gwaddellnvhs but obviously in our classrooms, we don't have unlimited resources with which to perfect the descriptors #sbarbook
druinok @jsb16 I've not seen her rubrics - do you have a link? #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook that is the problem isn't it. Bouncing off of the @datadiva comment. WOW!!! I have not seen her site before. Nice.
jsb16 @druinok Hang on while I find them back... #sbarbook
druinok I also really liked the self-assessment piece (2 ?s) on pg 184... #sbarbook
jsb16 #sbarbook Here's @DataDiva's 'Quality Rubrics' wiki: http://qualityrubrics.pbworks.com/w/page/992395/Home
gwaddellnvhs @druinok @jsb16 #sbarbook I wonder how many times I have given invalid assessments and though later, why didn't they get it?
jsb16 I like the 6facet rubric (pg 178-8) #sbarbook. I'm thinking that the top level is beyond A+ for HS, though.
druinok @gwaddellnvhs exactly! I think that's the hardest part :( and the same issue w/ self-assessment of the rubric #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 #sbarbook Should it be though? if many (not all) assignments are built around they honeycomb, they should be able to reach up to it.
druinok @gwaddellnvhs sometimes when I've used rubrics, I get frustrated b/c their overall score doesn't seem to match the output :( #sbarbook
justbugnu @druinok I really liked the self-assess on that page as well. #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook both ways on score not matching.I had terrific work earn low score. Was rubrics expectations not met, or work truly bad?
jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs #sbarbook In physics? Thorough, inventive, powerful, illuminating... Grad students still aspire to the kind of understanding.
druinok @gwaddellnvhs or poor descriptors on rubric? good question #sbarbook
justbugnu #sbarbook I really liked the self-test for assessment ideas on pg 187. I'm going to use that as I plan.
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 #sbarbook harder in physics, you are right. (my degree is in physics, I understand!) But pushing them can't hurt (I hope).
druinok I think I need to take their advice on starting small w/ rubrics, just understanding and performance at first #sbarbook
jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs #sbarbook I'm thinking that 2nd-from-top will be A+, & top will be "extra credit".
druinok @jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs you are referring to the rubric on pg 178? #sbarbook
eduz8 #sbarbook Rubrics are tough. Trying to predict paths and quantify feedback seem to limit options and make a task less "authentic".
gwaddellnvhs @druinok @jsb16 #sbarbook yes. That is a tough rubric on 178.
druinok @jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs I agree that top line is pretty intense for most kids #sbarbook
jsb16 @druinok @gwaddellnvhs #sbarbook Yes. The top level seems a discouragingly high bar for students unused to SBAR.
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 @druinok #sbarbook I think it takes a lot of scaffolding to begin at a lower level, and by the end of the year work up to this (178)
druinok @eduz8 agreed, I like the "make piles and jot why on sticky-notes" approach they had, but crazy amounts of time #sbarbook
jsb16 #sbarbook Really wish I could run through the refining process on p181 with actual student work & colleagues.
druinok @jsb16 I don't know that I would have a large enough sample size to refine well :( #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 #sbarbook I have several teachers that collaborate with me on this type of thing in my department. That way we help each other.
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 #sbarbook I strongly recommend it! When several people are coming up with good material based on this, it make light of the work.
eduz8 @druinok I find that the refining is mostly in my head: my goals, my purpose. Rather than student work. #sbarbook
jsb16 @druinok #sbarbook I don't think it's a matter of sample size. Even a small class can have variety of understandings.
druinok @eduz8 I think part of my struggle is so many rubrics are very subjective and that's tough :( #sbarbook
druinok @jsb16 For the purposes of refining the rubric though - if you are using student samples to refine the descriptors #sbarbook
jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs #sbarbook I'd love to, believe me. A matter of convincing colleagues that I'm not trying 2 get them 2 do my work or vice versa
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 #sbarbook I guess that is where twitter comes in then, huh! We need to find you some like minded physics teachers.
jsb16 @druinok #sbarbook It's still not a sample size issue. You're looking for examples of work at each level. Iterative, rather than statistical
jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs #sbarbook Also a matter of getting permission/forgiveness for posting student work on the interwebs... :)
druinok @eduz8 I struggle writing the descriptors in a clear enough manner to easily differentiate between the levels #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 #sbarbook If you use post-its to cover identifying part, take pictures or scan w/o names, should be no problem. Just don't post it.
jsb16 @druinok @eduz8 #sbarbook Think fewer levels would be easier to write?
gwaddellnvhs @druinok @eduz8 #sbarbook I think practice with writing the descriptors is key here. The more we practice, the easier it will be.
druinok @gwaddellnvhs @eduz8 @jsb16 To be perfectly honest, dont know how much of this I will implement this year - it's very overwhelming #sbarbook
eduz8 #sbarbook Ever have students use your rubric to provide feedback on peers?
jsb16 When I blog this chapter #sbarbook (probably tomorrow), I'll post some of the rubrics I used this year. Hoping people will comment.
gwaddellnvhs @druinok @eduz8 @jsb16 #sbarbook like with anything worthwhile, baby steps!
jsb16 @eduz8 #sbarbook I write a separate rubric for peer assessments, focused more on process than understanding.
eduz8 #sbarbook I am finding thinking about bid ideas to bind my course together helpful. Different. Build from there. http://bit.ly/qyWqIl
eduz8 @jsb16 How are they different? #sbarbook
druinok @gwaddellnvhs Just be happy I've continued reading - I was about to chuck this book a few chapters back :) #sbarbook
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook Nooo! Honestly, I think this is the most useful, and difficult, book I have read since becoming a teacher.
jsb16 @eduz8 #sbarbook 4 a lab report, process is: are graphs clear? Questions answered? Conclusion stated? Understanding is: r conclusions valid?
eduz8 @jsb16 #sbarbook Why do you not have students provide feedback on the validity of conclusions?
jsb16 @eduz8 #sbarbook Their grasp of validity tends to be right v. wrong and often accompanied by insults &/or sucking up. Trying to avoid emo...
druinok Okay #sbarbook folks, the convo seems to be winding down - what do you want to do for Ch 9? What day is best for you?
jsb16 @druinok #sbarbook Next week! I need time to process and start experimenting with all these ideas...
fourkatie Sorry I missed #sbarbook. I still have 0 follows/followers, but I'm seeing some posts in my stream now.
jreulbach @fourkatie Sorry I missed. Fam reunion this week. It's going to be hard to get to anything this week. #sbarbook
druinok Also guys, once August gets here, I don't know how reliable I will be w/ #sbarbook just fair warning :)
druinok any other feedback on when to do ch 9 of #sbarbook? (If it's next week, I will need a volunteer to lead it) (also, ch 9 is long)
gwaddellnvhs @jsb16 @druinok #sbarbook I agree, next monday.
gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook I can help lead it if it is Monday.
jsb16 @gwaddellnvhs @druinok #sbarbook Likewise: I can help out if it's next Monday.
druinok Okay then, next Monday night it is :) #sbarbook
