Testing is an important function of the software development process, no matter how big or small the development project. But not every company or developer has access to professional testing tools, which can run into hundreds and even thousands of dollars. The good news is that they don't need them, thanks to the tons of freely available open source software testing tools.
In simple terms there are two major approaches to testing software -- the manual way (a summer intern with a checklist) or through an automated program. With automated testing programs, you can spend a lot of money procuring these tools or distracting yourself from the task at hand by rolling out your customized automated testing software.
Instead, you could head over to sites like Open Source Testing (OST), QAForums, Open Testware, and others that catalog various testing tools and look for something that works for you.
"The largest category of open source testing tools," says Mark Aberdour, who manages OST, "is functional testing tools. This can cover a range of practices from capture-replay to data-driven tests, from Web application testing to Java application testing, and lots more in between." Aberdour, who before his current software development role spent 10 years on the other side of the fence in software testing and test management, says that the list of open source testing tools also includes many performance testing tools and test management/defect tracking tools, as well as a good number of security testing tools.
"If you include unit testing tools, then there are large numbers of tools for the more popular languages, particularly where test-driven development (TDD) is more popular," he says. There are several tools for testing Web and Java applications, but "as is the way in open source," Aberdour says, "if there's an itch, someone will scratch it, so there are tools available for all manner of obscure needs." OST lists testing tools for languages such as PHP, Perl, Ruby, Flash/ActionScript, JavaScript, Python, Tcl, XML, and so on. "The list is probably bigger than I've brought together on OST, and TDD practitioners should head over to testdriven.com, which has more focus on that area."
So how do they compare with the expensive proprietary tools? "In some cases, very well," says Aberdour. He points out WebLOAD and OpenSTA as examples that hold up well in the performance testing market -- no surprise there, since they were both originally commercial tools. Underlining his point, Aberdour says, "You have tools like Wireshark, which is huge in the security market, and Bugzilla and Mantis in the defect tracking sector. In functional testing there are a number of really great tools (Selenium, Abbot, Jameleon, jWebUnit, Marathon, Sahi, soapui, and Watin/Watir to name a few) with strong feature sets."
According to Aberdour, in addition to the tool itself, the advantage of the commercial tools is often their integration with an automated software quality (ASQ) suite, and of course an established company behind them, which will feature in a lot of people's selection criteria. Here again things are looking good for open source testing tools. Aberdour points out the RTH test case tool which integrates with Watir, HttpUnit, JUnit, MaxQ and the commercial WinRunner. Even bug trackers like Mantis and Bugzilla integrate with functional testing tools and test case tracking tools.
When it comes to reliability and accuracy, Aberdour says the classic open source arguments apply. The popular tools are tested and used by a high number of people, and many of the tools have evolved large and sustainable communities with many people feeding back on quality-related issues. "For many of these tools, innovation is high and release processes rapid. Yet it is not a free-for-all -- the code base may be open, but write access to the repository is closely guarded, and developers have to earn the right to commit."
According to Aberdour, the main issue for people using the tools is not whether their need is served, since in most cases you will find a tool to do the job, but whether the tool is mature enough to invest in. "Test automation is a major undertaking that has high costs in terms of upskilling your test team and creating test scripts, etc., and people need to know that the tool is a good investment, whether or not there is a license fee to pay. People will be asking if the tool is going to be around in five years' time, what levels of support are available, how good is the feature innovation, bug fixing, release schedules, and so on." Aberdour thinks there is a big gap in selection and evaluation support and paid technical support services, which is what he wants to focus on next with OST.
Of course there are strong and sustainable communities around the more popular tools that provide excellent support, but Aberdour says the market isn't at the point yet where there is a lot of commercial support available. Yet there are some examples of support companies evolving around open source products, and a lot of the product teams will hire themselves out. "In a commercial sense this market is still quite young, but it will mature, and when the product integration, community maturity, and commercial support are right, it has the potential to be highly disruptive. Gartner reckons the ASQ market is worth $2 billion a year, and while Hewlett-Packard and Mercury absolutely dominate, there are hundreds of smaller proprietary vendors at real risk from open source disruption. Things are certainly moving in the right direction."
Open source testing tools offer great performance and are a bargain compared to proprietary testing tools. The lack of a formal and consistent support structure might work against some tools being used to test mission-critical apps. But if you are an open source developer or with a software development company pondering over your testing budget, spend some time checking out the testing tools Web sites and forum boards. You might save yourself some serious bucks.

Today saw the largest Mass ever held in Australia as World Youth Day kicked off with over 150,000 deluded closeted virgins in town to hear the bigoted ramblings of a former Hitler Nazi Youth member now heading up a wonderfully large organisation of paedophiles.
Sorry, got a bit carried away there but I have a major problem with the Catholic church and organised religion in general. The Pope is officially going to apologise to victims of sexual abuse at the hands of the Catholic Church. In typical catholic confessional tradition, that is expected to absolve them of guilt. I'm sorry? Gay men are an abomination and condoms are evil, both of which are LEGAL, but molesting children just needs a little apology. Fuck off. You'd better not stand too close to me while World Youth Day celebrations are on because I will be blaspheming constantly and may get hit by lightening.

I can't read the word "pachyderm" and not hear it in the exaggerated accent of Timothy Mouse (from Dumbo), as when he's encouraging Dumbo to stop crying:
"Remember, you come of a proud race. Why, you're a… a pachyderm, and pachyderms don't cry."
Great flick! And a great design. I think this design might be my new favorite. Not only is it just plain adorable, but it's a total crack up! Check it out:

Now, if I wasn't oriented toward the craftier side of life, "FUN stuff" would include beautiful furniture, decor, and a perfect home in every way (read: lots of contractors at my beck and call - HO yeah!) But the thing is, I love making stuff, and I love making stuff look nice. So my frugal tendencies apply themselves to my crafting, organizing, and decorating tendencies and create little challenges that stick their fingers in their ears and blow raspberries at me. And I LOVE IT! So. much. fun!
Just last summer my wonderful hubby and I bought our first house. Up until now, I had to be less than creative in my apartments. I painted a wall dark green in one apartment (yep, had to paint it back when I moved out), and I've had fun with decorating, but I was always afraid of accumulating too much stuff. You know. Those moments when the next move is looming and you're wondering where all that crap came from. This fear of accumulation prevented me from buying fun stuff like TOOLS! Whooooo! and Paint! YEE HAW! and Secondhand Treasures! ARRRRIBA!
Well. Aren't you just the luckiest! Because not only have I been getting my grubs on those little nuggets mentioned above, but I have dived headfirst into projects galore and boy do I have a lot to show you, tell you, and hopefully inspire you with! (Including, sadly, some not so great stuff that maybe I can help you avoid.)
The caveat is that I am brand-spanking-new to blogging, so bear with me as I start to lead you through the transformation
I hope you are inspired! I hope you get ideas! I hope you have fun reading :)

I thought, with the year about half over, it might be time to sum up what's happened so far in the world of movies. Pretty soon now the DVDs of the films of the spring will start showing up, so it's wise to keep an eye on what's been solid and what's been rubbish.
The problem is that I've only seen, y'know, a dozen or so of the movies that've come out so far. And I think 12, 13 is a lot of films for... 26 weeks. That's just new releases. That's a lot of theatre time.
So, this isn't a real top ten for the year so far, some films won't be listed but warrant mentioning as being legitimate candidates for ten best. I don't want to discredit them, but I haven't seen them, so the following films are given a nod of approval and are exempt: Cars, The Heart of the Game, Over The Hedge, Inside Man, The Devil Wears Prada, Lucky Number Slevin, A Prarie Home Companion, Brick, The Notorious Bettie Page, Hard Candy, and above all, United 93.
The following films are unviewed but by no means getting a free pass: Waist Deep, The Pink Panther, Eight Below, Big Momma's House 2, Final Destination 3, The Shaggy Dog, When A Stranger Calls, Aquamarine, Phat Girlz, Keeping Up With the Steins, Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector, and above all, Bloodrayne.
1. Superman Returns
I'm taking a lot of heat for this one, but I stand by this. I don't like Superman, I don't know anyone who really does. He's a everyman superhero that no one wants to get behind, someone so vanilla that he's to nobody's taste. But Brian Singer loves Superman, loves what he stands for, loves the tragedy of his outsider status (why do you think Wolverine works so well as a character in Singer's hands?) - desperately in love with a girl he can't have because she doesn't want Clark Kent, she only wants Superman. And she can't ever have Superman.
This is one of the few instance where I don't pick on the acting in any way, because it's truly the story that carries this film. I've heard harsh criticisms of Brandon Routh as Superman (poor guy, this is his first film), Kate Bosworth as Lois, even Parker Posey's Kitty Kowalski. But that's not what this film is about. This film is our modern day Odyssey - our hero has returned home to discover nobody is sure if they want him around anymore. That's a hard lot for even the most vanilla of superheroes.
2. Thank You For Smoking
This is one of the sharpest indie comedies I've seen - in fact, it may be the all-time sharpest. A wicked and surprisingly fast-pased satire based on the not quite as fast-paced Christopher Buckley's book by the same name, the cast features Robert Duvall, William H. Macy, Maria Bello, J.K. Simmons, Adam Brody, Aaron Eckhart, Katie Holmes, and Rob Lowe... and the final product is better than the sum of its parts. That's saying something.
3.V For Vendetta
The Wachowski brothers finally live up their potential and create a philosophy-heavy flick that people actually want to see. Colorful, adventurous, somewhat thought-provoking and bombastically emotional, the bros. give fan favorites Hugo Weaving and Natalie Portman a Shakespearean-type script and proceed to blow everything else up.
4.Nacho Libre
It's time someone says it - if Jared Hess is willing to let his films get a little weightier, to really give his actors some space to give out a little more emotion, then soon we won't be able to tell the difference between him and Wes Anderson. They're really just not that far apart anymore. There, I said it.
5.Pirates Of The Caribbean
Expectations got way, way, way too high, and this week is bound to be ripe with Pirates-bashing. But the new Pirates is rollicking good fun, packed with sight gags, great lines, and special effects twice as good as last time. I'm willing to suffer through a fake-and-baked Keira Knightley throwing confused coquettish glances at Johnny Depp (I'm convinced that she was thinking the same thing I was while shooting it - "this makes no logical sense in any respect."), as long as we still get to see swarms of pirates swinging across whatever rigging happens to be at hand, and slashing cutlasses at mythical sea-beasts. I'll pay pretty much any admission for the privilege.
By the way, did anyone else think that Kevin McNally has pretty much handed in his acting credentials and is just chewing scenery at this point? I've never seen anything so brilliantly hammy.
Tom Cruise has gone absolutely crazy, yes, I know. I don't defend it any more than you do. But there's a certain type of role for which Cruise is perfectly suited, a cocksure everyman who can't help but wear his heart on his sleeve. And that is what Cruise was, the whole film, clearly giving his all in a role where most actors would just be phoning it in by this point. Sure, things broke down a little towards the end, and J.J. Abrams used literally every trick he learned on Lost. But I'll never not love the idea of the MI team, driving frantically through Hong Kong with the most advanced technological weapon ever invented in their hands, firing shots back at their pursuers, and they can't let the villain know about they've got his ransom because they can't get any bars on their cell phone. It's just the most brilliant bit of irony I've seen on screen this year.
A strange, haunting special effects spectacular, Mirrormask follows a loose plotline about a girl trapped into a dreamworld that she herself doodled, looking to restore balance to a world haunted by evil. Full of clever visual twists and wild imagination, it was the darkest kid's film I'd ever seen and hope to ever see again. It also marked the major film introduction of the excellent Stephanie Leonidas. We'll see her again.
You've already heard my thoughts on the movie once before, but I should say that I'm starting to feel a little bad for Brett Ratner. Sure, X3 wasn't 8 1/2, but it was a lot better than most people gave it credit for, and I certainly enjoyed it. I do have to point out that he sometimes lack creativity: have you ever seen a group of more pathetic mutant powers? Ratner added about 150 extra mutants, about 3 of which actually had visible powers. The rest just looked ratty and grimaced a lot. Boo.
9.The Break-Up
I think this movie is fascinating. Vince Vaughn came up with the story, got some friends of his to write the screenplay, produced it and shot it in his native Chicago, and still deliberately makes himself look like a total lout throughout the movie. He lazes around the apartment in old tee-shirts and gives Aniston's character all the heavy emotional lifting, which is fine because she's such a solid actress, but this means the movie ends up being primarily focused on her. Which is a bad idea, because it's supposed to be a comedy. And Aniston's not funny.
Still, I loved the Vaughn-Jon Favreau best friend vibe, as I always do, and I loved the idea of a movie where one of the romantic leads literally does nothing almost the entire movie to try and win the affections of the other lead. The Break-Up: emotions are for sissies.
10. Looking For Comedy In the Muslim World
Sure, this movie was fun, but this flick is mainly here because I didn't want to give put The Da Vinci Code, RV, or Nightwatch in this list. It's the story of comedian Albert Brooks (played convincingly by Albert Brooks), who is sent by the President to explore the Muslim world and find out what makes Muslims laugh. What makes Muslims laugh, it turns out, is not the comedy of Albert Brooks.
It's worth it just to hear Brooks constantly trying to explain to people, through interpreters, that he was the fish in Finding Nemo. This does not win him the hearts and minds of the Muslim people, but it did win him mine. Why are so many actors writing scripts these days that star themselves and make themselves out to be complete putzes?

Accent Lighting for Worship
For visual impact, many churches choose to add accent lighting to decorate the worship environment. Accent lighting encompasses a wide variety of fixtures in numerous locations. Architectural features often highlighted with accent lighting include:
- Grand arches.
- Post and beam ceilings.
- Religious artwork.
- Spotlights for frescos.
- Flood lights for organ pipes.
- Wall wash fixtures.
Furthermore, churches may want to highlight specific features such as pulpits, a baptismal, or choir lofts with accent lighting. If flowers are placed in common locations for services, weddings, and funerals, then pinspots may be an excellent choice to draw attention to the arrangements. Support video and concert lighting with accent light that fills backgrounds with texture and/or color. These subtle touches add dimension and life to the worship center.

Building a virtual server.
The first thing you'll want to have is a program to run all your virtual machines. I use a free program from Microsoft called "Virtual PC." There is another popular program called VMware that you might like. I will use Virtual PC in my example as I am more familiar with it. Virtual PC started as a program for linux/Mac for running Windows and other virtual machines without having to restart your computer. It's a neat tool for many reasons. You can run as many virtual machines as you want on your system, as long as your system can handle it.
Let's get started. You've downloaded and installed the latest Virtual PC version. When you start Virtual PC for the first time, you'll be looking at a screen similar to this, minus the VMCs I have currently set up:
Clinking new will bring you to the "New Virtual Machine Wizard." The following steps will show you how to set up a virtual machine.
- Click Next.
- Select "Create a Virtual Machine" and click Next.
- Create a name for you new virtual machine and click Next.
- In the "Operating System" drop down menu, select "Other" and click Next.
- Select "Adjust the RAM" and enter the desired amount of RAM into the RAM settings. (I recommend at least 512, but make sure you still have enough RAM for your system to run. Click Next.
- Select "A new virtual hard disk" and click Next.
- Select how big you want your virtual hard disk to be (I suggest about 10GB for an Ubuntu install, but you might need more depending on what you are wanting to do with Linux). Pick a name and location for you virtual hard disk and click Next.
- Click Finish and you've just set up your virtual machine.
- On the host computer, open "Control Panel"
- Open "Add Hardware"
- Click Next in the add hardware wizard.
- Select "Install the hardware manually selected from a list (advanced)"
- Scroll down, select "Network adapters" and click Next.
- Scroll down, select "Microsoft" from the "Manufacturers" list, select "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" from the "Network Adapter" list and click Next.
- Click Finish and you're down with the first part.
- Open "Network Connections" (In XP, Network connections can be found in the control panel. In Vista, type ncpa.cpl into the start menu's search box).
- Right click the connection you use to connect to the internet (not the loopback adapter) and click "Properties"
- Click the "Advanced" tab
- Check the option "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet Connection"
- If you have more than one network adapter, you'll need to specify which adapter you want to share you connection with. Select the "Loopback Adapter"
- Click Ok and your virtual server's network adapter is set up.
- Open "Virtual Server 2007".
- Select your newly created virtual server and click "Settings".
- Click "Networking" in the left pane.
- In the right pane, make sure "Microsoft Loopback Adapter" is selected as the adapter.
- Click "Ok"
Tomorrow, I will show you how to install the newest version of Ubuntu on your newly created virtual machine! Enjoy!


text: We added another chair at the kitchen table this weekend, as we greeted our French exchange student. He'll be here with us for three months (and then Calvin will go back to France with him for three months). Having only had just one Skype call before his arrival, and with my poor French (very, very poor), you might understand why I was a little bit nervous about all of this. But I needn't have been - we hit the jackpot with this one, who already fits right on into the family. And thus, a regular weekend at home was just enjoyed - full of skiing, sledding, ice skating, music, chess and all of those things. Just with an extra teenager in the house. But as I know I've said here before, I do love teenagers, and I love a full house too. We definitely have that going on these days, and in abundance. And as I look at that last photo above, I see the bit of exposed lathe from the project we started there nearly three years ago now. You know, I don't usually even see it anymore, let alone fret about it. But I do see the full table...and for that I'm so grateful.

For the past six decades, Helen Mirren's career has successfully shifted from a respected theatre actress to an iconic fixture on British television to a beloved Hollywood star. Her range of work has earned her the triple crown of acting - an Oscar for The Queen, a Tony for The Audience, numerous Emmys - including for her iconic performance in Prime Suspect - and an appointed Dame Commander of the Order of the British Empire. The Helen Mirren Archives chronicles Miss Mirren's life and career from the early days to the recent with information, pictures and video clips.
It has taken a while to continue updating the public appearances, since 2010 has been such a heck of a year for Helen. Over 4.000 pictures have been added, including a busy awards season for "The Last Station", promotional tours for "Love Ranch", "Brighton Rock", "The Tempest" and "The Door" and visits to Russia, Germany and Italy. Click any of the previews below to launch all latest galleries. Pictures from yesterday's Toronto International Film Festival will be added next.

Wow, I'm so excited and thankful. I won the Christmas giveaway from Sweet Sassy Sadie Lee. I love her blog and am so honored that I am going to receive the beautiful garland and tags from her posting dated November 10.
Please go over and visit her too. Her blog is such a joy to plunder through with a hot cup of coffee or cocoa.
Look below at what I will be receiving in the mail soon. I can't wait to decorate with the garland and of course the tags are so adorable I think maybe I'll put them in a pretty bowl and just stare at them. I'll certainly take pictures for everyone.
I'm slowly but surely getting this ole' farmhouse on Lillie Mae Acres all decked out for Christmas. As I decorate, I'm also doing some deep cleaning. If you're like me, you don't deep clean near as much as your ancestors did. Besides, when you decorate like I do in a primitive style, a little dust and dirt sort of blends in, unnoticed for a while.
I hope everyone had a wonderful Monday, the start of a blessed week.

Home Owner Tip for the Winter
Make sure you protect your biggest purchase. Yes, your home. Most people know to have their Heat/AC checked by a licensed HVAC technician twice a year. Another good seasonal prevention item is to take care to turn off your exterior hose bibs. It's not as simple as turning them off on the outside. Whether you own a home in Fairfax County Virginia, Montgomery County Maryland or even in the District of Washington DC, you may experience some cold weather. With the cold temperatures you need to make sure you're not putting your home at risk of having frozen pipes. If water gets trapped inside your pipes from your exterior hose bibs, it can freeze, and cost the pipes to burst.
So avoid this and follow a simple procedure before it gets too cold. You don't need to water your lawn in the winter anyway 🙂
Step 1 – turn off your water to your exterior hose bibs from the inside of your home. These shut off valves are usually, but not always, in the utility room of your home.
Step 2 – remove any hoses from your exterior hose bibs
Step 3 – open your exterior hose bibs. This will allow any left over water to flow out of the hose bibs, or at the very least have room to expand if it does freeze as the temperature drops.
So whether you have real estate in Tysons Corner, McLean, Vienna, or own Real Estate somewhere in Montgomery County Maryland, or even real estate in Washington DC – the procedure is the same. A simple 3 step process to protect your home from having frozen pipes in the cold winter temperatures.

Members of the India Responsible Investment Working Group 2014
Working Group 2013
Facilitated by SBLF, cKinetics convened a sustainability disclosure and reporting working group in 2013 in partnership with the Indian Institute of Corporate Affairs, GIZ, and Impact Investing Policy Collaborative. The aim was to create a group which will identify institutional and policy linkages to drive Environmental and Social (E&S) disclosure.
The working group focussed on engagement with businesses, investors and institutions to gain a better understanding of E&S measurement, management and disclosure among Indian firms:
- What are steps needed to coordinate actions between existing institutions to increase the prevalence of impact disclosure from businesses in India?
- When, where, and how should these steps be undertaken to promote deployment of investment capital looking beyond a pure financial return?
Prevalence of ESG disclosure-measurement practices
Preparedness to implement enhanced ESG disclosure-measurement practices
How are the supply chains currently engaged on ESG issues?
How are firms managing supply chain risk on ESG issues?
How can businesses in these supply chains increase disclosure/ transparency on sustainability issues?
Investor interest in standardized ESG data - What E&S metrics are requested by investors and insurers?
2013 Working Group Members
During the 12 month period of engagement, the 2013 industry working group on sustainability disclosure and reporting developed the following work products:
Emerging Landscape of ESG Action in Indian Businesses and Their Supply Chain
This first of its kind report presents the landscape of preparedness of Indian businesses and their supply chain to adopt ESG management systems and disclose the actions undertaken by them, their drivers and risk perception. It also presents the investor perspective on gaining ESG information from businesses and steps needed to increase the prevalence of impact disclosure in India.
National Voluntary Guidelines: Creating a conducive policy environment for Responsible Business and Responsible Investment in India
The report examines the development of the National Voluntary Guidelines on Social, Environmental & Economic Responsibilities of Business (NVGs), lessons learnt for future policy makers and leveraging existing institutions. It also tries to establish the connect between NVG and the London Principles.
Survey Findings: Building a Business View on ESG Disclosure in India
The report presents the key findings of a survey amongst Indian businesses which examined how ESG measurement, management, and disclosure improves business operations, reduces risk and enhances access to capital.
Outcome Note of Discussion: Taking Action to Promote ESG Disclosure in India
This outcome note summarizes the key discussion amongst investors, policy makers and businesses during a workshop on 'Building a Business View and Case for ESG Disclosure in India'
Driving E&S Performance and Disclosure in Businesses
This interim research report presents an overview of the existing research related to ESG management, performance and actions by businesses and delves on, the drivers and challenges faced by businesses. It also maps the existing institutions driving ESG management and disclosure globally and in India.

Enlighten Laser Tattoo Removal
Offered at our convenient location in Portland, Oregon
Introduced in 2014, Cutera Enlighten is the most advanced laser system for the effective and safe removal of tattoos and benign pigmented lesions.
About Enlighten Laser Tattoo Removal
Introducing the world's first dual wavelength (1064 nm + 532 nm) and dual pulse duration (picosecond + nanosecond) laser system featuring superior results!
Enlighten features extremely short and high-power picosecond laser pulses which efficiently and quickly breaks down the ink particles in tattoos. A picosecond is one-trillionth of a second and is 1,000 times shorter than nanosecond pulses used in existing lasers for tattoo removal. Picosecond laser pulses have been shown to remove tattoos more completely and in fewer treatment sessions than traditional laser used historically in the past.
- Safe for all skin types including darker skin
- Exceptional clearance and results
- Fewer treatments needed than other laser tattoo removal devices
Before & After Photos
Advantages of Enlighten Laser
Unwanted tattoos could now truly be removed more efficiently with less chance of scarring, less pain and shorter recovery time.
Several distinctive advantages exist in utilizing picotechnology over nanotechnology for tattoo removal. Depending on the ink colors and the size of the tattoo, it normally requires only 1/2 the amount of treatments with the Enlighten Laser. Nanotechnology also generates heat with longer duration, which increases the risk of scarring. The Enlighten Laser's picotechnologygenerates heat 1000x faster, separating tattoo pigment into much smaller particles and at the same time reducing thermal collateral damage to the target's surrounding tissues.
Treatment Process
Patients should avoid sun exposure or tanning for several weeks prior to laser treatment. Patients compare the procedure to a rubber band being snapped against their skin and typically much less painful than having a tattoo placed. Topical or local anesthetics may be available from your provider to minimize discomfort, if needed.
Most patients experience redness and swelling immediately following the treatment. Slight blistering may sometimes occur. These side effects are temporary. Patients can return to regular activities immediately following the treatment.
Enlighten Laser Tattoo Removal Results
You should be prepared for multiple treatment sessions.
The total number of treatments vary depending on the composition, depth and the color of the ink, as well as the size of the tattoo. Your provider can give you a better idea of the total number of treatments needed during your consultation and once your treatments begin.
Multiple sessions are required because tattoo ink is deposited deep in the skin. In order to reach all of the ink in the skin, multiple treatment sessions are needed for clearance, typically 8-10 weeks apart. Depth, size and color of the tattoo also impact the number of treatments needed. The number of treatments needed for tattoo clearance using the Enlighten Lase is typically much fewer (often half the number) than what's needed using older (nanosecond or Q-switched) lasers.
Your Consultation
During your initial consultation our Master Aesthetician will examine your skin and discuss your specific concerns. She works directly with you to create a custom treatment plan to help achieve your specific goals, using the Enlighten Laser Tattoo Removal. All treatment plans are reviewed by Dr. Hayes.
The price for Enlighten Laser Tattoo Removal varies depending on your areas of concern, the number of sessions needed and your ultimate goals. Your provider and you will work together to create a customized treatment plan that's tailored to your body, your goals and your budget.

- 08:13 Interesting. USPS sent me email about how the shoe boxes I ordered from them have shipped.... several days after I received them.
- 08:14 Also, morning Tweetverse. I awake early to deal with yet another issue left from previous owner.
- 08:15 It turns out that when your outdoor heat converter has no fuses, it won't actually turn on when you start up the central AC.
- 10:34 The house is full of smoke -- you can tell I was in the kitchen trying to make something. My breakfast is scrambled omelette and burnt toast
- 22:03 I suppose this makes me a social media person officially now, I'm setting up a Twitter account for my choir.
- 23:27 OK, so apparently Twitter can only handle so many avatars being uploaded to an account at a time before it breaks.
- 23:27 Dear Twitter, I wouldn't have to upload that many if you'd allow me to position where you crop the damn photo.
- 23:37 OK, it's going! Everyone, meet my choir's twitter account! @rccpgh .. Pittsburgh's Renaissance City Choir!

That said, the Regional Security Officer (RSO) would probably blow a gasket (and I might lose my job) if I posted any pictures of the actual project, generally it's poor practice to talk about project status publicly until after it's competed. But, considering that all the local taxi drivers know where the American Consulate is and that someone sitting outside the gate can see lots of concrete trucks going into the compound, I don't think I'm letting the cat out of the bag to tell you that we were pouring concrete.
Speaking of cats, there were several on the project site, and for that matter, lots of cats everywhere. I counted four beside the road as I rode in the cab from the airport and the hotel. From what I hear, almost every post has some sort of resident animal. From a public health point of view, cats might have fleas but they keep away rats, so you really have to pick your vector.
|The project site cat
Getting rid of shoes always seems weird to me, because the good ones stay around a long time. I can usually remember when I got rid of a particular pair, because it was like saying goodbye to a good friend and travel companion for the last time. Like when I climbed Mt. Fuji and the soles of my hiking boots were worn clean off.
Anyways, the week is over and I'm exhausted. Have I mentioned yet that after working a full 60-hour week (through Valentine's Day, I might add), I'm now headed up to Brussels for a different project? With luck I'll get some sleep on the flight, but I probably won't.

Carcasses found hanging in Menifee car wash
Fifteen plastic grocery bags containing the bodies and body parts of dead animals were found in the rafters of a Menifee County car wash Saturday.
The bags contained six cats, which had been shot to death, two possums, a hog's head, a chicken and some unidentified animal bones, said Diana McGuire, a volunteer with the Menifee County Humane Society, which is assisting the sheriff's office with the case.
McGuire said a customer washing his car at the 460 Car Wash on U.S. 460 looked up and saw a bag containing what he initially thought was a stuffed animal.
She said that all three of the car wash bays had bags with animals in them.
"It would have taken some time to do that," she said, adding that the incident is thought to have been directed at the car wash's owner.
She said she hopes a reward will be offered in the case. "It's illegal to shoot animals," McGuire said.
Anyone with information is asked to contact the Menifee County sheriff's office.

Logan, a junior from Culloden, W.Va., led Hollins to a 1-1 week with the loss coming in a tight 5-4 overtime decision against Emory & Henry. In that game, she notched HU's first goal to tie the score 1-1 in the 25th minute. Logan continued her week with four goals as Hollins exploded for a 9-2 win over Eastern Mennonite. After HU had twice gone ahead only to see EMU tie the game at 2-all, Logan scored HU's third, fourth, sixth and seventh goals break the game open. Logan, who entered the season with eight career tallies, has already scored seven goals this season as she paces Hollins with 16 points.

One of the hottest young prospects in the sport is back in action on Saturday night at the UIC Pavilion in Chicago, when undefeated super welterweight Erickson Lubin takes on experienced veteran Daniel Sandoval. This fight will be an undercard bout for the PBC broadcast on NBC.
Lubin was considered one of the USA's best shots to medal at the summer Olympics in 2016. But instead he was lured into the professional ranks in 2013 by Iron Mike Promotions, former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson's erstwhile attempt at promoting boxers. Tyson's signing of Lubin created a mini-controversy, with USA Boxing blasting Tyson for "poaching" fighters, against their best interests.
In my opinion, USA Boxing's complaints sound about as genuine as NCAA basketball powers whining over teenage basketball prodigies turning professional. In both cases, a condescending and parochial argument is being postured to justify protecting the interests of administrators at the expense of allowing grown men to earn a living with their talents.
Lubin is now connected with Al Haymon's PBC series, which should put him in an ideal position to emerge as a true star in the coming years. At 5'11" and with a 76″ reach, Lubin has outstanding length for a super welterweight. He's got the technical skill to exploit those gifts.
Lubin has defeated some experienced journeymen in his past three fights. He stopped Orlando Lora in six in September 2015. He knocked out Alexis Camacho in two last November. In January, he shut out Jose De Jesus Macias over ten rounds.
Sandoval is perhaps a minor step up. At only 25, he's already fought over 41 professional bouts. He's lost just three times as a pro, though he hasn't exactly faced top competition. The most well-known fighter he's faced is probably Grady Brewer, who he knocked out in February 2015. He lost a close decision to borderline contender Omar Chavez in 2014.
This is a bout that Lubin should almost certainly win, but it should be a good measuring stick for his development.

Conservative PAC endorses Duncan in the 2nd district
The Senate Conservatives Fund endorsed Jim Duncan in his bid to defeat incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Renee Ellmers in the 2nd Congressional District.
Duncan is one of four Republicans challenging Ellmers in the primary. She is seeking a fourth term.
The Senate Conservatives Fund is a PAC that mainly, as its name suggests, focuses on Senate races. But each election cycle it backs a few House candidates.
Duncan is "a principled candidate who has strong grassroots support," SCF President Ken Cuccinelli said in a statement.
The Club for Growth and Erick Erickson, a prominent political commentator, radio host and blogger, have also endorsed Duncan.

X-linked Sideroblastic Anemia and Ataxia
Several forms of congenital or progressive ataxia have an X-linked pattern of inheritance. The gene for one form of progressive ataxia, X-linked sideroblastic anemia and ataxia (XLSA/A) has been identified (Table 2). XLSA/A is an infantile-onset gait disorder affecting male children beginning with delayed motor milestones and followed by onset of slowly progressive ataxia between 40 and 50 years of age. The disorder may lead to confinement to wheelchair after at least 10 years of disease progression. Examination of adults shows dysarthria, ataxia of upper limbs and gait, ophthalmoparesis, hypometric saccades, saccadic pursuit, nystagmus, occasional perioral fasciculations, normal to increased deep tendon reflexes and normal plantar reflexes, sensory examination and negative Rhomberg sign. The gene responsible for XLSA/A is located on Xq13 and encodes the human ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABC7.

The Last Boat on the River
An adventurous epic of a cycling marathon undertaken for the BBC Radio 5 Live programme 'Up All Night' alongside the Mississippi River. A river with a mind of its own; an aquatic Action Man, a doer-of-deeds over which humans have no control; a flowing, enigmatic spirit that is the custodian of some amazing tales and dark secrets. The stories are an eclectic mix of the bizarre, outrageous, heart-rending, uplifting, and downright hair-raising.

Pink Triangle Park and Memorial Hot
Pink Triangle Park is a triangular shaped mini-park located in Castro District in San Francisco, California, at the intersection of 17th Street and Market Street, directly at Castro Street Station of Muni Metro.
It is the first permanent, free-standing memorial in America to the thousands of persecuted homosexuals in Nazi Germany during the Holocaust. Fifteen triangular granite columns—one for every 1,000 gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender persons estimated to have been killed during the Holocaust—surround the a pink-quartz-filled triangle in the center of the park. The triangle theme recalls the Nazis forcing gay men to wear pink triangles sewn to their clothes as an identifier and badge of shame. Pink Triangle Park was dedicated on 10 December 2001 by the Eureka Valley Promotion Association. According to the neighborhood group that maintains the space, the Pink Triangle Park serves as "a physical reminder of how the persecution of any individual or single group of people damages all humanity."

My name is Mary Heeringa and I am the teacher librarian at Bettendorf High School in Bettendorf, Iowa. This is my first year working as a teacher librarian and my first year at the high school. I previously was a first grade teacher in Bettendorf, Iowa. My portfolio reflects the past 3 years of my teacher. Because of this, some of my artifacts come from my first grade classroom and some come from the high school library.
Standard 1
Standard 1- Demonstrates ability to enhance academic performance and support for implementation of the school district's student achievement goals.
Criteria a.- Provides evidence of student learning to students, families and staff.
Below is a copy of a student report card. It is provided to students and families four times throughout the year.
Criteria b.- Implements strategies supporting student, building and district goals.
I support the building by serving on many committees. One committee I serve on is currently working on moving our district toward standard based grading. We currently use this method for grading math but would like to move to all subjects in the future.
Criteria c.- Uses student performance data as a guide for decision-making.
Our district uses running records as an assessment tool for guided reading. I take running records every week to help determine if a student is ready to move up a reading level or needs to stay at the current level.
We also using the FAST testing system. I use the data to help decide students who need a Tier 2 or possibly a Tier 3 intervention.
Criteria d.- Accepts and demonstrates responsibility for creating a classroom culture that supports the learning of every student.
This year I had a student who struggled both behaviorally and academically. I worked with our AEA representative to come up with a plan to support the student in improving academics and behavior.
Criteria e.- Creates an environment of mutual respect, rapport, and fairness.
I have five rules in my classroom to ensure all students are in a positive learning environment. People sometimes ask about Rule #5- Keep your dear teacher happy! I tell them that I am happiest when all students are learning. If someone is doing something to keep us from learning then I am not a happy teacher and we don't have a happy classroom.
Criteria f.- Participates in and contributes to a school culture that focuses on improved student learning.
Like I showed in Criteria d, I have worked with our AEA representative to create a plan to help a student improve in his learning.
Criteria g.- Communicates with students, families, colleagues, and communities effectively and accurately.
I believe that communication with parents is essential to the classroom. I do this by sending home an update every other week and more often if needed.
Standard 2
Standard 2- Demonstrates competence in content knowledge appropriate to the teaching position.
Criteria a.- Understands and uses key concepts, underlying themes, relationships, and different perspectives related to the content area.
Criteria b.- Uses knowledge of student development to make learning experiences in the content area meaningful and accessible for every student.
Criteria c.- Relates ideas and information within and across content areas.
Criteria d.- Understands and uses instructional strategies that are appropriate to the content area.
I showed evidence of meeting these criteria with my formal observations. I had two observations done by my building administrator throughout the year. I also met with my teacher mentor during the year. She also did observations and we would create plans to improve on my instruction. Below are the final observations and forms.
Formal Observation Summary. Mary Heeringa
Standard 3
Standard 3- Demonstrates competence in planning and preparing for instruction
Criteria a.- Utilizes student achievement data, local standards, and the district curriculum in planning for instruction.
I keep track of our math assessment data in a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet helps me to know if students are meeting math standards. I take the information from the spreadsheet and use it to reteach and retest as needed.
Criteria b.- Sets and communicates high expectations for social, behavioral, and academic success of all students.
I send report cards home quarterly. The report cards show if students are meeting the classroom expectations for behavior and academics. As we move through the quarter each student has a person goal to be working on. The goal can be academic, behavioral or both. The students track their progress with our Super Improvers Wall. The students receive a sticker as they show improvement on their goal.
Criteria c.- Uses students' developmental needs, background and interests in planning for instruction.
On our class blog student are often able to choose the topic they wish to write on. Some days I do assign a topic but I want students to have as much freedom as possible. My goal with the blogs is to allow the students to write on topics that interest them.
Criteria d.- Selects strategies to engage all students in learning.
In our daily math instruction I use differentiated instruction and differentiated homework. At the end of each lesson the students complete a quick check. That, combined with the daily work, informs me on how to choose the homework for each student. Students can receive a reteaching, practice or enrichment worksheet.
Criteria e.- Uses available resources, including technologies, in the development and sequencing of instruction.
Last year, I taught my students how to blog. We started with the lesson that is below. We then moved to using iPads to create our first blogs. After students were comfortable with writing a publishing their blogs, they used the classroom desktop computers to continue the blog.
This year, I added in several apps to for my students to use on iPads to enhance their math skills. I added apps for basic number sense, geometry, fact fluency and word problems.
Standard 4
Standard 4- Uses strategies to deliver instruction that meet the multiple learning needs of students.
Criteria a.- Aligns classroom instruction with local standards and district curriculum. I meet with the first grade team on a weekly basis. During our meetings we work together to align our instruction with the curriculum provided by the district. We also work to supplement instruction if the curriculum does not cover all of the Iowa Core Standards.
Criteria b.- Uses research-based instructional strategies that address the full range of cognitive levels. One of my goals this year was to use higher order thinking questions in my guided reading groups. I worked with my mentor to create and implement a plan to meet this goal.
Criteria c.- Demonstrates flexibility and responsiveness in adjusting instruction to meet student needs.
Criteria d.- Engages students in varied experiences that meet diverse needs and promote social, emotional and academic growth.
For both of these criteria (c and d) I worked with our AEA representative to create a behavior and academic plan for a struggling student. The plan required me to change my teaching habits in order to best help the student make behavioral and academic gains.
Criteria e.- Connects students' prior knowledge, life experiences, and interests in the instructional process.
Criteria f. Uses available resources including technologies, in the delivery of instruction.
For criteria e and f, I created a class blog for my students. I used the blog to talk about different types of writing. With the blog the students are able to write on a variety of topics and practice using technology.
Standard 5
Standard 5- Uses a variety of methods to monitor student learning.
Criteria a.- Aligns classroom assessment with instruction.
For our math curriculum there are 16 topics (chapters). The students are assessed after each topic. There is also a unit test given after every 4 topics. The results for these assessments are put into a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet calculates the results and shows were students are meeting or not meeting core standards. I can then take this information to reteach and reassess as needed. This spreadsheet is from partway through the third quarter and shows were some students have been retaught and retested to show mastery of a standard.
Criteria b.- Communicates assessment criteria and standards to all students and parents.
This is a copy of a first grade report card that is sent home 4 times a year. There is also an attached sheet to each report card for math grading. We are moving toward standard based grading. Math is the first subject to switch to standard based grading.
Criteria c.- Understands and uses the results of multiple assessments to guide planning and instruction.
For our math curriculum there are 16 topics (chapters). The students are assessed after each topic. There is also a unit test given after every 4 topics. The results for these assessments are put into a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet calculates the results and shows were students are meeting or not meeting core standards. I can then take this information to reteach and reassess as needed. This spreadsheet is from partway through the third quarter and shows were some students have been retaught and retested to show mastery of a standard.
For our Language Arts curriculum we have several different assessments. I use those assessments to guide my instruction. For example, I use the FAST data to create intervention groups for my students. I also used the data to create a focus in whole class instruction. During the fall, the data showed my students needed whole class instruction in word segmenting.
Criteria d.- Guides students in goal setting and assessing their own learning.
I have a Super Improvers Wall posted in my classroom. Each student has a sheet with a spot for 10 stickers. Once the sheet is filled up the student moves up the wall. Each student has something they can improve on. It could be behavior, spelling, reading level, handwriting, math facts or anything else the student needs to be improving on.
Criteria e.- Provides substantive, timely, and constructive feedback to students and parents.
I meet with parents during conferences to provide feedback on students. My goal is to have resources for each student in order to improve learning.
Criteria f.- Works with other staff and building leadership in analysis of students progress.
I meet with the other first grade teachers for a team meeting every Friday. We take this time to analyze student progress among other things.
Standard 6
Standard 6- Demonstrates competence in classroom management.
Criteria a.- Creates a learning community that encourages positive social interaction, active engagement and self-regulation for every students.
During our guided reading time I follow the Daily 5 model with some modifications. Each student is assigned a group each day to complete two activities. The students work at their own paces and work together on some activities.
Criteria b.- Establishes, communicates, models and maintains standards of responsible student behavior.
This is a chart that was created by my students and myself. It goes over what should be happening during Read to Self and Read to Someone during guided reading.
Criteria c.- Develops and implements classroom procedures and routines that support high expectations for learning.
My classroom has five rules the students are expected to follow. The last rule is "Keep Your Dear Teacher Happy". A lot of people laugh when they see this rule but to me it is the most important. I tell my students that I am happiest when we are learning. If something is going on to keep us from learning then I am not happy and it is not acceptable.
Criteria d.- Uses instructional time effectively to maximize students achievement.
I worked with my mentor to create a plan to improve transitions in my classroom. Our transitions were taking too long and taking away from instructional time. I worked on different strategies to minimize transition time in order to use instructional time effectively.
Criteria e.- Creates a safe and purposeful learning environment.
A few of my students need extra support to keep their behavior on a positive track. I use a behavior sheet for these students to help us have a safe and purposeful learning environment. The students are part of our school wide Check In/Check Out program.
Standard 7
Standard 7- Engages in professional growth.
Criteria a.- Demonstrates habits and skills of continuous inquiry and learning.
I was recently accepted into graduate school at the University of Northern Iowa. In the fall of 2014, I will begin my work toward a master's in library sciences.
In addition to my graduate school work, I am in the process of becoming a certified Google Educator. I have taken and passed the basic exam which is the first step.
Criteria b.- Works collaboratively to improve professional practice and student learning.
Every week I meet with the other first grade teachers for our team meeting. During our meetings we collaborate on the curriculum and how to best meet the needs of our students.
Criteria c.- Applies research, knowledge, and skills from professional development opportunities to improve practice.
In October of 2013 I attended a professional development class on Whole Brain Teaching. I took what I learned in the class and used it to improve classroom behavior during transitions. My mentor also did an observation of the classroom behaviors.
In April of 2015 I attended the Iowa Association and School Libraries annual conference. One session I attended focused on coding in the classroom. Coding promotes problem solving and critical thinking skills. I have since started coding with my students in class using the Scratch Jr. app. This summer I will be attending a workshop put on by Code.org.
Criteria d. Establishes and implements professional development plans based upon the teacher needs aligned to the Iowa Teaching Standards and district/building student achievement goals.
During the year I created a Professional Learning Plan to set and meet goals in math instruction involving integrated technology.
Standard 8
Standard 8- Fulfills professional responsibilities established by the school district.
Criteria a.- Adheres to board policies, district procedures and contractual obligations.
After being observed by my building administrator, she created a summary of my formal observation.
Criteria b.- Demonstrates professional and ethical conduct as defined by state law and individual district policy.
The state of Iowa requires many trainings to cover conduct in the classroom. These are copies of the certificates of completion of some of the required trainings.
Criteria c.- Contributes to efforts to achieve district and building goals.
This year we piloted a new math program. Part of the district expectations is to track the assessment results in order to meet the goal of all students meeting all standards. This spreadsheet is from part way through the third quarter. It will show progress being made toward the district and building goal.
Criteria d.- Demonstrates an understanding of and respect for all learners and staff.
I worked with our AEA representative to come up with a behavior plan for one of my students. This is a copy of our collaborative report and resulting behavior plan.
Criteria e.- Collaborates with students, families, colleagues and communities to enhance student learning.
Parent/Teacher conferences are held twice a year. I used Sign Up Genius to make it easy for parents to sign up to meet with me.

Movie Producer Seun Egbegbe has been charged to court for phone theft.
The CEO was on Tuesday November 22, 2016, arrested at Computer village, Ikeja for allegedly stealing 9 iPhones.
In earlier reports, eyewitnesses said Egbegbe went to a certain Keelcech Innovations Store, took some iPhone 7 and iPhone 6 plus mobile phones, told the sales girl he was coming, and then crossed to enter his car.
Following this, the producer was beaten by a mob and taken to the police station.
Egbegbe released a statement denying the allegations, but it was revealed on November 23, 2016, that he was still in Police custody.
According to Linda Ikeji's blog, Egbegbe was officially charged to court by the Police today November 24, 2016.
He's presently at the Magistrate court in Ikeja. According to Lagos state Police PRO, Dolapo Badmus, "After Discreet Police Investigation and two nights in custody, Seun Egbegbe has been charged to court for stealing."
Meanwhile, Pulse paid a visit to the hubbub of Lagos where Seun Egbegbe was portrayed by merchants as a notorious thief who uses charms on people before stealing.
Eye witnesses say Egbegbe has been doing that in computer village for a long time now. An eye witness said, "Just last week Friday, November 18, 2016, Egbegbe walked into a shop and stole 2million naira worth of goods. He was successful."
How he was able to walk away with all that is, however, unclear.
Traders at Ikeja revealed to Pulse Egbegbe targets new phone shops in the area in the early hours of the morning before other shop owners begin to open.

Emotional abuse is not like sexual or physical abuse. It is made up of a lot of incidents and things that happen over a period of time. It is so much more than what you may think - emotional abuse is more than just verbal insults!
Emotional abuse may be abuse in the form of: rejection, threats, criticisms, aggression, ignoring, isolation, teasing and so much more. It can also take place in a number of places, from the comfort of your own home to the workplace and even in a happy relationship.
Emotional abuse is not only under-reported, but it's effects are minimized. The famous childhood verse, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me" is simply not true. In fact, many physical and sexual abuse survivors have said that the emotional abuse was often more devastating and had longer-term effects.
Emotional abuse cuts to the core of a person, attacking their very being. Emotional abuse, if frequent enough, is usually internalized by the victim, and leaves them feeling fearful, insignificant, unworthy, untrusting, emotionally needy, undeserving and unlovable, and as if they were bad, deserving of punishment, and to blame.
Survivors of emotional abuse often have a hard time understanding why they feel so bad. The abuse may not sound like much, and often people around them will minimize the experience, telling them it's not so bad. But a climate of disregard for a person's feelings, where one is subjected to constant or frequent criticisms, being yelled at, or being ignored – has a deep and profound effect, attacking the very self-image and confidence of a person.
How do you recognize emotional abuse? One thing that can help is to step back from your situation and examine the overall climate in your home or your workplace. Trust your instincts and feelings about people. Sometimes, a person can just look at you and you know that they are looking down at you. Other times, their words are okay but their tone is mean. Emotional abuse is insidious and can be very subtle, so trust your gut; it's telling you something.
Because it is harder to name emotional abuse as abuse, it can be harder to heal from as well. The first step is to name your experience as abuse. Trust how you feel. Many people can identify the abuse once they know what to look for because they change from being outgoing, self-confident, and care-free to feeling nervous, anxious, and fearful in the company of an emotionally abusive person. Just because you're feeling those feelings doesn't mean that you're being emotionally abused; there could be something else going on. But, those feelings combined with abusive behavior is convincing evidence that you are being abused.
Try describing to other people how this person behaves. Be honest, and listen to the feedback you receive. If you don't feel good about the feedback, try someone else. Remember that emotional abuse is frequently minimized.
No matter what you've been told or how you've been treated, you are worthy of love and respect. The more you know this, the less likely you will be to accept disrespectful or abusive behavior towards yourself or others. You should not have to take emotional abuse from anyone – no matter what the excuse. You deserve to be treated well.

I have a couple of projects I want to show you today and they feature the Elizabeth Craft Designs Peel-Off Stickers. Chelsea from The Paper Trail sent these to me and asked that I use and give a review of them. There's so many to choose from but these are the Gold Dragonfly ECD2394.
Well... I looked at these and was completely stumped as to how to use them because I am normally a card maker and use Copics to colour, flowers, brads and Frantage to embellish so... what to do, what to do?
I decided I should first of all stay within my comfort zone and make a card.
What I made:
Then I decided to try one of those little pop up boxes I see all over the internet so I went hunting for a tutorial and found one at Splitcoaststampers. This was a little more work because to make sure the images were sturdy enough to stand, I stuck them down on a piece of card stock and then cut around the gold outline. Then various colours of Stickles were used to fill in the lines.
What I didn't like:
Once I got over my initial nervousness about using the stickers, I found I quite liked them and there's nothing I don't like about them. Different projects for me and I'm glad I got to try something out of my ordinary. Think out of the box... that's what I had to do.

StampHaven summer challenges
Here are 2 more cards that I did for the StampHaven summer challenges. We had to do a pocket card where the pocket was functional. I had just bought these little tools, so they were perfect to put in this pocket. The picnic card was fun. We had to use several images. I had this picnic paper that was great for THIS card. The challenges have been fun. I have a few more to go!

I must point out my affection for your kind-heartedness giving support to persons
that have the need for help with your subject matter. Your
personal dedication to getting the solution all around became remarkably invaluable and has constantly
permitted women much like me to arrive at their targets.
Your own warm and helpful information signifies a lot to me and
far more to my fellow workers. Thanks a lot; from everyone of us.

A few weeks ago I met with one of the instructional coaches at AHS, Ray Hawthorne. He is not the guy that comes and evaluates you to offer you a job next year. Instead, he is there to help teachers become better teachers in concrete, productive ways (I hope I wrote that out right Ray). Anyway I had a great conversation with him about how to improve instruction in the classroom, and what that looks like at AHS. I really look forward to having a few more conversations in the future and having him come into my classroom in the future.
One thing we talked about was setting one goal and trying to improve upon that through observing and then exploring new and different ideas. He told me about an educator that focused on learning and implementing one new thing every year. After thirty years she had learned and applied thirty new things to teaching and her instruction had improved that much.
He really had some good thoughts on teaching and reminded me that teaching is not about us – it is about the students and them learning. We also talked about how not being perfect is ok. That really spoke to me, because of the high expectations I set for myself and of the school and my cooperating teachers.
Finally, he reminded me to reflect on these questions:
1.) What did I do well?
2.) What is one change I would make?
I need to embrace what went well, as long as what did not go as well. That is not easy to do on a bad day with the critical mind that I have, although, I will try Ray. Thanks for your words.
