We have some very exciting news! After months of hard work and collaboration, we are proud to announce "The Harbour Chronicles: A Life in Surfboard Culture." In conjunction with the book we are honored to be the subject of an extensive gallery exhibition at the Orange Coast College Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavillion. Sponsored by Honolua, the book and the show debut February 13th! Here's the first bit of press from The Surfer's Journal…
The Harbour Chronicles
By Scott Hulet
TSJ is pleased to announce The Harbour Chronicles: A Life in Surfboard Culture. This exhaustive and immersive installation will be unveiled February 13 at the Orange Coast College Frank M. Doyle Arts Pavilion. Harbour Surfboards were the preferred equipage of innumerable 1960s hot shoes, including Mark Martinson, Dave Reed, Roy Crump, Jackie Eberle, and Greg Tucker. The show will feature the recreation of three shaping rooms, dozens of referenced models, a series of interpretive didactic panels, and a chance to see what most surfboard historians consider to be the finest color laminations of the period. In other words, the shit.
The show runs until February 26, and an accompanying book will be available, featuring written contributions from Steve Pezman, C.R. Stecyk III, Chris Sardelis, and Mike Marshall.
For more about the Harbour history check out TSJ Vol. 14 No. 2, Spring '05.

TSN Hockey Insiders Bob McKenzie, Pierre LeBrun and Darren Dreger gathered for the latest installment of Insider Trading and the topics discussed were Joe Sakic's comments about the draft, the latest on Kris Letang's contract discussions with the Penguins, the spin-o-rama in shootouts, Kings goaltender Jonathan Bernier and the World Juniors going to Toronto and Montreal in 2015 and 2017. Why would Joe Sakic say that if the Colorado Avalanche keep the first overall pick in the NHL Draft, they are leaning towards passing on defenceman Seth Jones?
Bob McKenzie: There are two schools of thought out there on Sakic's comments. No. 1 is maybe it's a sincere and honest declaration in that quite frankly, they don't have the Denver kid who grew up there who has a high profile name because he's Popeye Jones' son. They don't have him ahead of any of the forwards that are available and therefore they want to start cushioning the blow and don't want it to be a big backlash if, all of a sudden, they surprise everybody on draft day by taking Nathan MacKinnon or Jonathan Drouin. The flip side is, there's some people out there who thinks it's posturing; that Sakic is merely saying this because he believes the Florida Panthers or the Tampa Bay Lightning really want MacKinnon or Drouin. And if they think that those players are going to be gone to Denver with the number one pick, they might offer something. I don't believe that. I think the Panthers are going to sit there and say 'we're content to sit in the number two slot and take whoever's there according to our rankings.' Was there any progress in Wednesday's meeting between Kris Letang's agent Kent Hughes and Pittsburgh Penguins general manager Ray Shero? Pierre LeBrun: It was a preliminary discussion really setting the barometers of what is this conversation they're having. They're going to meet again over the next week, and again and again until there's a resolution. One thing Shero said Wednesday afternoon was that he knows all the media are speculating that he has to trade Letang this summer if he doesn't get him signed. Not necessarily. They can wait until the trade deadline while they try and sign him. On the other hand, I can tell you that I believe the message that Hughes parlayed to Shero Wednesday at that meeting is not a dime less than $7 million for Letang, which might be a tough pill to swallow for the Penguins. If you ask me, I still believe that the best package for Shero, if you can't sign him, comes this summer and not waiting until the trade deadline, although Shero said he spoke to Nashville Predators general manager David Poile about the kind of packages he got for Ryan Sutter a year-and-a-half ago and that made him think. We shall see. Darren Dreger: I believe that Letang wants to stay with the Penguins. Why wouldn't you? You have an annual shot at winning the Stanley Cup. There are some who believe that as long as this deal has a six in front of it, 6.5 million instead of seven-plus times eight years the maximum, that he'll take that deal and he'll stay. Is the NHL actually close to banning the spin-o-rama in the shootout? Dreger: They talked about it at length on Wednesday. The reasoning behind it is that it's hard on the officials to truly determine the direction of the puck and if it's moving forward and is there contact with the goaltender. It is going to require ongoing dialog over the course of the summer and there is some expectation that there'll be pushback from the players. To quote Bill Daily, "this may not be the hill that the NHL is willing to die on." LeBrun: It drives me crazy. The shootout as it is is a bit of a joke. I mean, it's a skill event and it's not part of a real hockey game. If you're going to have a shootout, the players can do what they want as far as I'm concerned. My own preference; cancel the whole thing and go to three-on-three overtime. And I know I have a bunch of general managers on my side on that one. McKenzie: They shouldn't throw the baby out with the bath water. Spin-o-rama moves are okay as long as the goaltender is not interfered with. I would put the onus on the referees; there are two refs and two linemen on the ice to be able to determine if a goaltender is being interfered with. As for whether or not the puck moves forward, I think they can figure that out. Which teams are serious about LA Kings goaltender Jonathan Bernier, and what are you hearing about Roberto Luongo? LeBrun: Five teams we believe are in the mix. Bob alluding to three of them on Tuesday; the Maple Leafs, Islanders and Flyers, but today we also learned that the Stars and Panthers are also in the mix. I spoke with Bernier today and he didn't know a whole lot about what's going on on the trade front but he said he's excited. General manager Dean Lombardi promised him at his exit meeting that he would do everything that he can to give him a shot to go and be a number one goalie elsewhere and that's what Bernier wants. Dreger: The sense is that the Vancouver Canucks are not going to buy out or waive Roberto Luongo. They're confident that they'll have a trade partner for Luongo at the draft. Why are the World Juniors going to Toronto and Montreal in back-to-back years? McKenzie: They obviously want to go to big markets, but what's most interesting is that they're going to share it. In 2015, in will be Toronto at the Air Canada Centre that gets the medal games while the Bell Centre in Montreal will have the preliminary games. In 2017 it will flip around and Montreal will be home to the medal rounds. Obviously, the two biggest cities in Canada and two arenas that they can charge a lot of money and generate a lot of interest.

Richard Young, his younger brother Fred, and their cousins Anthony Kenney and Greg Martin began performing music in the Youngs' and Kenney's hometown of Glasgow, Kentucky in the 1960s. They founded a band called Itchy Brother, named after Fred's favorite cartoon character, from King Leonardo and His Short Subjects.
The band achieved regional success in Kentucky in the 1970s, including at least one single, "Shotgun Effie," which they wrote about the Youngs' grandmother, Effie. It was released in 1973 on the King Fargo label. Itchy Brother was almost signed to Swan Song Records, an independent label founded by the band Led Zeppelin, in 1980. The label closed after Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham died, and Itchy Brother never recorded a full album on Swan Song.
Itchy Brother broke up in 1982. After its disbanding, Richard started writing songs for Acuff-Rose Music, and Fred became a backing musician for country singer Sylvia, who at the time was recording on RCA Records. Martin played bass guitar and sang backing vocals for Ronnie McDowell, then a recording artist for Curb Records, and Kenney stopped performing.
When Martin attempted to reunite Itchy Brother in 1985, the Young brothers joined him, but Kenney declined. Martin invited Missouri Bootheel native Doug Phelps, also a member of McDowell's band, to replace Kenney, and Doug brought his older brother Ricky Lee to sing lead vocals and play harmonica.
The band decided to name itself The Headhunters, taking the name from the term "headchopper," which blues musician Muddy Waters used to indicate that he had supplanted another band in a gig. After discovering that other bands existed with that name, the band added "Kentucky" to its name and thus became The Kentucky Headhunters. The Kentucky Headhunters began performing together the following year, playing twice monthly on the 90-minute Chitlin' Show, a radio program on WLOC in Munfordville, Kentucky.
The Kentucky Headhunters borrowed $4,500 to record a demo album, which included seven original songs, plus covers of Bill Monroe's "Walk Softly on This Heart of Mine," Henson Cargill's "Skip a Rope" and Don Gibson's "Oh Lonesome Me." Originally intended to be sold at the band's live shows, the demo tape came to the attention of the Nashville music community. Although Martin said that the band had not seriously considered signing a record deal, the band pursued one through the suggestion of its manager, Mitchell Fox. Harold Shedd, a record producer who was then the head of Mercury Records, helped sign The Kentucky Headhunters to the label in 1989.
Mercury released the demo in 1989 as The Kentucky Headhunters' debut album, Pickin' on Nashville. It produced four singles, all of which reached top 40 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart, and the rest is history...

Center for Substance Abuse Treatment (CSAT) recently
published Brief
Counseling for Marijuana Dependence: A Manual for Treating
Based on the research protocol developed by counselors
at CSAT's Marijuana Treatment Project, the new treatment
manual provides brief marijuana dependence counseling
(BMDC) guidelines for counselors, social workers, and
psychologists in both public and private settings.
Ten weekly one-on-one sessions offer techniques and
strategies to help adult clients end their dependence
on marijuana.
The counseling approach presented in this manual comprises
three key intervention components: motivational enhancement,
cognitive behavioral skills training, and case management.
The manual includes guidelines, protocols, assessment
forms, and client handouts for each session, as well
as supporting information on prevalence of use, clinical
research, and program implementation.
Each session presents examples of how a counselor might
reinforce the client's resolution to stop using marijuana,
provide skills training, and help the client access needed
community support.
Case examples of people seeking treatment for marijuana
dependence are included along with background information
on treatment for marijuana use disorders, current findings
about marijuana use, an overview of the Marijuana Treatment
Project, and criteria for marijuana dependency counselors.
In addition, the theoretical basis for BMDC treatment
is presented in detail. Information includes the therapeutic
tasks of the approach, a description of the target population,
and suggested sequencing for counseling sessions.
The manual also addresses common treatment issues and
potential pitfalls in the BMDC model. Some identified
problems are not specific to marijuana treatment and
may apply generally to substance use disorders or clinical
Back to Top
Strategies for initiating counseling with clients include
building rapport, assessment procedures, and motivational
enhancement therapy techniques for engaging clients and
identifying specific goals and change strategies.
Assessment and scoring tools are provided for completing
each client's personal feedback report, which is a critical
tool in BMDC implementation. Counselors use the completed
report to make clients aware of the effects of marijuana
use on critical life areas and to increase motivation.
The manual offers guidelines on how to reinforce each
client's efforts to initiate change, review goals, and
plan alternative strategies for behavior change, and
to encourage support from friends or relatives.
Skill building is a critical factor in ending marijuana
use. Cognitive behavioral strategies are outlined for
building client motivation and maintaining treatment
gains. Six core skill topics are presented that include
coping with other life problems, understanding marijuana
use patterns, coping with cravings and urges to use,
managing thoughts about marijuana use, problemsolving,
and marijuana refusal skills.

Mail consolidation under review
Date: June 23, 2009
by: Pam McTeer | News Editor
The U.S. Postal Service's Office of the Inspector General has agreed to conduct an independent review of the USPS's plan to consolidate mail processing operations at the Manasota Processing and Distribution Center in Tallevast.
Congressman Vern Buchanan began fighting for the review after the USPS announced its decision in March to eliminate 59 jobs there.
Originating mail and processing and distribution operations would have been moved to the distribution center in Tampa by April 1, 2010.
"The community has a lot at stake," Buchanan in a press release. "This audit will help us determine if in fact the consolidation will save money and improve service. If not, it shouldn't happen."
The Office of Inspector General is expected to review the proposed efficiency gains, cost savings, staffing changes and service implications as well as issues such as the public hearing process and public transparency.

On Memorial Day, the nation honors the shared sacrifice of so many men and women who laid down their lives for our freedoms, but not all those deaths happened in combat.
A Murfreesboro family is honoring their son who died in training while on American soil.
Wayne Gearheart's father was a World War II veteran. Wayne served during Vietnam, and he and his wife, Brenda, had four sons.
One of them, Lance Cpl. Ben Gearheart, decided to follow in his family's footsteps and join the military.
He was a wrestler, a writer, a movie buff and comedian.
"He could imitate people to no end," Wayne Gearheart said.
His family says Ben Gearheart always looked after the underdog and lived to make people laugh.
"Sometimes I wouldn't laugh, because I didn't think it was the right thing to do at that time, but inside I was just dying," Wayne Gearheart said.
Ben Gearheart joined the Marines soon after graduating from Page High School. He deployed to Kuwait and then returned.
It was August 1997 when his mother got a knock on the door. There had been a training accident at Camp Pendleton in California. Ben Gearheart was among four people inside a light-armored vehicle that fell from a 20-foot mountainside cliff.
"Having him die on American soil is tough," Wayne Gearheart said.
"The feelings I remember are his warm hugs and his infectious smile," Brenda Gearheart said.
Ben Gearheart's legacy lives on. A bridge in Franklin now carries his name, and Gov. Bill Haslam handed the Gearhearts a proclamation in his honor on behalf of all those who have lost daughters and sons in the service of our country.
Now, as many Americans enjoy time and fun with family, the Gearhearts will, too.
"It's what we do in America. We celebrate," Wayne Gearheart said.
But they ask that at some point, you take a moment and remember who gave you the right.
"If not for our military, we'd be in a third-world country right now," Wayne Gearheart said. "People need to pause and remember."

Only 5 per cent of Canada's households live in non-profit housing or government housing – the smallest percentage of social housing of any western country, except the U.S. This is a growing problem for those too poor to pay market rates for shelter. Canada's housing policy emphasizes ownership and about two-thirds of Canadians live in homes that they own, most often with the help of a mortgage. Since 1946, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation has focused almost all public dollars and programs on subsidizing home ownership, with little help for renters or rental properties, even though most homeowners have double the income of renters. In recent decades, the gap between owners and renters has grown along with the increasing disparity in incomes of Canadians. In the 1960s, the gap between renters and owners was about 20 per cent. By 1999, the gap had ballooned over 200 per cent. Further, almost 20 per cent of renters live in housing that is overcrowded or needs major repairs. Ironically, much rental housing is poorly insulated; many landlords simply aren't motivated to insulate if the tenants pay the bills. That not only creates a lot of greenhouse gasses but adds a lot of expense to the functional rent cost, especially when the heat is electric.Canada's housing system is out of balance. Its reliance on market supply-and-demand works pretty well for homeowners, but even there we find growing problems. In many parts of the country housing prices are getting so high that it's difficult to see how young people will ever be able to afford to buy a family home of their own. Renters are having even more trouble. Some parts of the population are inhibited from access to acceptable housing. At the worst end of the housing deficit, homelessness is growing.After 50 years of federal leadership, the 1996 federal budget shifted administration of federal social housing to the provinces and territories. This was not in response to a legal or constitutional dispute; it was unilateral policy decision by Paul Martin, to help save money and balance federal budgets on the backs of the provinces. Dismantling the federal social housing supply program meant that provinces and territories had to bear the direct responsibilities for housing costs, but also the indirect costs of inadequate housing and homelessness, such as the costs of physical and mental health care, policing, and emergency shelters.In theory, there is a constitutional barrier to direct federal funding to municipalities for housing. Nonetheless, in the 1970s, the federal government did directly fund new social-housing projects, like Castlegreen Housing Co-op in Thunder Bay, built by non-profit societies or non-profit housing corporations established by municipalities.After years of talk and a lot of promises, the 2004 and 2005 federal budgets did allocate some new funds for housing and municipal infrastructure, as a result of political and public pressure. While it was a promising start, there is a long way to go.Castlegreen is an example of one way we could choose to invest: a cooperative community of mixed income renters: safe, clean, green, with a wonderful sense of cooperation, pride, and belonging. In the absence of federal leadership and initiative, its time to bring back co-ops and other public partnerships that rebuild communities, provide lower income Canadians with healthy housing, and give children a quality environment to grow up in.I believe that there is an important federal role in helping to achieve more balance between both helping home ownership (a very good thing!) and safe, energy-efficient rental housing. I will be looking for such programs and funding in the upcoming federal budget. But what do you think? I'd like to hear your ideas at firstname.lastname@example.com.

President Barack Obama's message to Israel last week was both powerful and urgent: You can't go on like this. The status quo is not a viable option.
That is a direct challenge to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who acts like Israel can go on like this for the foreseeable future. Many Israelis are strongly tempted to believe, with Netanyahu, that the threat of terrorism and the occupation of the West Bank are manageable problems.
"It can be tempting," Obama said when addressing an audience of Israeli students in Jerusalem, "to put aside the frustrations and sacrifices that come with the pursuit of peace, particularly when Iron Dome repels rockets, barriers keep out suicide bombers [and] there are so many other pressing issues that demand your attention."
The president's warning: Don't be tempted. "Peace is the only path to true security," he said. "The only way for Israel to endure and thrive as a Jewish and democratic state is through the realization of an independent and viable Palestine."
Israel has three options. None is good.
The status quo means continued Israeli control of a hostile population. "It is not fair," Obama told Israelis, "that a Palestinian child cannot grow up in a state of their own, living their entire lives with the presence of a foreign army that controls their movements."

Teachers want their students to understand. In order to understand students have to associate new knowledge to that which they already know. Often, however, we teachers seem to be at a loss of achieving this goal, and many of our students resort to the memorization of facts which they seem to forget shortly after the next test or exam. More so, probing shows that this knowledge is disjointed, piecemeal, and fragmented. Research has indicated that the key difference between experts and novices does not lie in the number of concepts in their vocabularies. Rather, the difference lies in the hierarchical and lateral integration of the experts knowledge framework [1]. To help students to organize concepts into a meaningful framework, Novak invented a learning heuristic. He called this heuristic concept mapping [2].
The heuristic of concept mapping was designed (1) to assist learners in understanding concepts and the relations between them; (2) to establish hierarchical relationships among the concepts; and (3) to recognize the propositional nature of knowledge. We use concept maps in a variety of contexts. Our students map the key concept in an assigned reading, or they represent the findings from a laboratory investigation. Figure 1 shows a concept map which a grade six student completed after several experiments with thermometers. The concept map quite clearly shows that the students not merely remembered simple phrases, but that she could interconnect different aspects of the thermometer into a web of propositions. For this girl, knowledge was not simply a body of disjointed statements and fact-like propositions, but a connected whole.
[Click for Figure 1]
We found that working on concept maps encourages students to explain information that they "know" by gut feeling, but which they don't really understand. Encouraging them to make their own ideas explicit, to describe these ideas in their own words, helps students realize that they have not yet constructed a complete understanding; they have to look again, consider the ideas in the context of the initial experiment, and try to connect the ideas to each other and to their prior knowledge. Also, we found that when designing concepts maps, students frequently realize that they don't know how two ideas are related, and this leads them to develop new questions to investigate.
Much of our introduction follows the instruction prepared by Novak and Gowin (1984). We begin our instruction with two lists of words. The first list includes familiar object words, such as car, dog, chair, table, and house. The second list includes event words such as raining, running, thunderstorm, and birthday party. Projecting one list at a time, we ask the children what the words describe until they have identified the lists as describing objects and events. We then introduce the word "concept" as label for both object and event words.
In the next step, we list words such as are, where, then, with, and the. Even without much prompting, our students invariably will come up with the label "linking words" for this set of terms. These terms are used to link pairs of concepts to form propositions, that is, simple sentences that have meaning.
A fourth list of words includes proper nouns such as Toronto, Michael Jordan, Mississippi, Lake Ontario, and Christmas. We help students arrive at the distinction between proper nouns, that is names of specific places, events, and objects on the one hand, and concepts as labels for regularities on the other.
Using concepts from our lists we have children construct several simple sentences. In this way, we show the meaning of a term. To help students understand the importance of sentences for the conveyance of meaning, we ask them the following. "Can you tell me how much I know about basket ball if I say 'Michael Jordan.'" By constructing simple sentences with 'Michael Jordan' we can show that some sentences which express knowledge are correct in that they are shared widely (Michael Jordan is a basketball star), while others are incorrect (Michael Jordan is quarterback).
At this stage, we let students work in groups of three or four because they are of great support to each other. We have children identify the main concepts in an excerpt from a science textbook at the appropriate level. To make the first concept map not too complex, there should not be more than 10 to 12 concepts. So that the students can underline or highlight these concepts, we type out the text rather than using their own textbook. Then we hand to each group of students a sufficient amount of 1.5" x 2" slips of paper on which they write all the concepts they identified. The students rank order these slips with concepts marked on them in order of importance. At this point, they are ready to begin there first concept map.
Using a sample concept map on a different topic projected on the wall, we point out that the most inclusive, the most general concepts appear on top of the concept map. More specific and less general, less inclusive concepts appear further down in the map. We let students read sections of this map so that they can experience how much knowledge can be represented in such a map. With the sample map still projected, the students then proceed to fan out there concept labels on the paper slips, while they talk about how pairs of concepts can be linked. When they are satisfied with their arrangements, students transfer their arrangements to their notebooks. We emphasize the use of pencils, so that they can make changes even as they link concepts.
Our students use concept maps in several different contexts. First, they concept map what they know when they do hands-on activities. Before the students begin their investigations, we have them list the concepts which they already know about the topic. After they have completed their investigation, the students add to their previous list all those which they newly learned. Then they prepare a concept map which includes both their previous concepts and the new ones. In this way, the students experience for themselves how new concepts tie to those that they already had. As such, concept maps fit well into a program that makes use of the Learning Cycle, during which students invent new concepts for which the teacher provided new labels. To help students integrate these new labels into that which they already know, concept mapping is an ideal experience. Figure 2 presents a good example of a grade 6 student's map after an experiment on boiling as one example of a phase change.
[Click for Figure 2]
Concept maps are also ideal to help students understand textual materials. We sometimes ask students to read something at home. To give them an incentive in integrating what they read to what they already know, we ask them to make a concept map on their own. To make sure that they have used all the terms they had previously identified, some students prefer to list all the concepts on the margin of their paper. In this way, they can cross off those concepts already used. The concept map in Figure 3 is a map of concept from the Silver Burdett Science 6 textbook (Mallinson, Mallinson, Smallwood, & Valentino, 1985) which summarizes a student's reading on changes of matter.
[Click for Figure 3]
We find that concept maps are especially well suited to help students construct an overview of the science content which they learned over a period of time. By providing students with a list of concepts from all the experiments and/or chapters in the reference book, we make sure that the students will map the key concepts. Through concept mapping, the students are then enabled to tie together the various ideas spread throughout the chapters of a unit. While students usually perceive science content as a sequence of topics, this activity helps them to build an integrated framework.
Concept mapping also helps us teachers to organize our thoughts about teaching a unit. It has been shown [6], concept maps have helped teachers from grade 4-8 to develop science curricula which are hierarchically arranged, integrated, and conceptually driven. For example, the curriculum within which the student activities leading to concept map in Figure 3 were embedded was mapped by the teacher at a larger scale (zoom out) in Figure 4. For each of the concepts, we provide a series of hands-on activities. On the zoom out, we provided an indication of the various lesson topics. We draw a specific concept map for each lesson which contains not only the more abstract concepts, but also details about individual experiments. This detailed map would be very close to that which the students drew in Figure 3. Ideally, the students should have the opportunity to conduct all these investigations on their own, so that the knowledge represented in the map has a solid foundation in the experiences of the students. The concept map aids us to plan the curricular unit, and helps us to assist students in integrating all the hands-on activities into a consistent and meaningful structure.
[Click for Figure 4]
In our own work, we have been able to establish the usefulness of concept mapping in several respects [3] [4]. First, concept mapping in groups helps to engage students in a discourse through which they make sense of their experiences, whether these were hands-on or reading experiences. Second, in order to talk about science concepts to their peers (and the teacher), students have to externalize their own meanings. In the process, they have to evaluate, integrate, and elaborate on their understanding in ways which leads to improve their own comprehension. Third, concept mapping allows students to integrate the various experiences in the elementary science classroom to an integrated, wholistic understanding of science. Finally, concept mapping as a collaborative activity allows us teachers to evaluate both the process and the products of students' comprehension activity: We can observe students as they try to make sense, and we have available the final products of their work to assess this understanding.
For those teachers who want to use concept maps to evaluate students and to assign marks, Novak and Gowin (1984) provided a scoring scheme [2]. Assign one point for each valid link; assign five points for each level of valid hierarchy; and assign ten points for each valid cross-link, that is, for a link which connects various sub-hierarchies. You can divide the students score by that which was produced by a teacher about the same topics. In some cases it can happen that students will achieve a higher score than the teacher's reference map.
If you consistently use concept maps with your students, they will soon understand how and why concept maps are constructed. Figure 5 shows a concept map about concept mapping drawn by one of our grade 6 students. It clearly shows the connections which students make between concepts and events on the one hand, and the experiments on the other. The student also expressed the importance of hierarchy, the relationship between concepts and linking words, the relative freedom in constructing the map ("CONCEPT MAPS can be any SIZE/SHAPE"), and that the concept maps help in meaningful learning.
[Click for Figure 5]
We have observed an overwhelmingly positive attitude towards science courses in general and towards concept mapping in specific. In their concept maps about science, the students express that science is fun. They like concept mapping because it shows them how things are connected, and because they can work together in groups. We feel that teaching and learning in the science class or laboratory should be a meaningful experience. Concept maps have become an important tool for both students and teachers in our school to get the most out of our classes. Students know how all the lessons and/or experiences are interconnected and they can make sense of, that is, can wholistically visualize, an otherwise seemingly sequential curriculum. The teachers know how to put all the lessons together so that each one builds on the next in such a manner that the students can construct meaning.

My little cabin in the woods
The cabin is 14 x 14 and approximately 400 square feet with a full loft. It includes a kitchen, dining area, bathroom and living area downstairs and a large bedroom and office upstairs.
I built this cabin by myself from new materials for under $2000 (not including windows, doors, and porch). I live in this cabin year round. My electricity comes from the solar panels you see on the roof and a small wind turbine. This power runs all my lights, water pump, tv, computer etc. I use a small woodburning stove with water heating tank and my heat is primarily from direct solar gain through the south facing windows and I use propane for a backup furnace, fridge, stove, and on demand water heater. My propane bill for last year was less than $200. I use a cell phone and have wifi internet.
My water is from a free flowing artesian well I drilled myself and I also collect rainwater and recycle graywater for gardening. My septic system is a solar composting toilet that I designed and is about two thirds more efficient than standard designs. I grow a garden, fruit trees and raise chickens and rabbits.
Because I have no house payments or monthly utility bills I can live very inexpensively. I own a small business and now I can work when I want as I want. I only work 9 months a year and spend winters on other projects.
My goal is to live simply and do as little damage to the earth as possible!
This cabin would be perfect as a starter home, vacation cabin, guest house, or bunk house. It is big enough to sleep six comfortably.
Here's the back of the cabin before finished Here's my propane fridge, stove and my sink

As a professional renewable energy writer, I do review renewable
energy books for various publications, both in print and online.
I bought Lamar's Ebook "Simple Solar Homesteading" the other day. It's
a bargain for 5 bucks, it's completely original, he wrote and
photographed everything in it. The CAD construction diagrams for all
the projects are clear, the book is well organized, and it's easy to
read. You can build all of these projects yourself with just the
information provided in the book.
This book is a really original GEM in a sea of re-hashed online
renewable energy ebooks, and I highly recommend it to everyone here.

Thanks Lamar! This is exactly what I hoped it would be. Perfect for our lake lot, and lots of projects available for future improvements. This ought to keep us busy for years into our retirement.
God Bless,

"I just received LaMar's book about simple solar homesteading. The whole book contains finite directions for building a cabin for under $2,000, a solar system for under $1000, a solar water heater for under $50 ,a solar composting toilet, and even a garden cart, plus lots of other info about where to go to get more stuff. It's the best $5 I've ever spent. Just the how-to photos are worth so much. I printed the book off, bound it, and stayed up most of the night devouring it--now I can't wrench it out of my son's hands. I've always said if you know how to build shelter and grow food, it takes most of the fear out of life. If you haven't ordered this book, do it NOW! Thanks, LaMar, for putting this together". Rebecca at Coyote Moon Homestead in W KY
Simple Solar Homesteading II
"Lamar has empowered the reader, the seeker, the fed-up, those on very limited income, enabled them to take control of their life. Freeing them from the servitude of a system; that enslaves under 15-20 even 30 years of indenture, the mortgage company. A system that cares not for the Spiritual welfare of its captives, but only the profit it can extract from it's sufferers. I found this book, to contain a wealth of information. All of it in a format that is usable, by anyone with the most marginal construction skills. Providing plans for more than just a cabin, he touches upon many more of the needed systems, which go along with homesteading. It will become a valuable tool for many, profound in its straight forward simplicity." Rock Trant

Boston Bruins defenceman Andrew Ference will not be suspended for his hit on Montreal Canadiens centre Jeff Halpern in Game 7 of their Eastern Conference quarter-final series on Wednesday.
Ference took part in a disciplinary hearing over the phone on Thursday.
Halpern fell to the ice after taking a shoulder from Ference in the corner midway through the third period. He was helped off the ice with the assistance of the Bruins trainer and headed to the locker room but returned to the game shortly after.
"I didn't see the replay," Canadiens head coach Jacques Martin said after the game. "You know, it's one of those incidents that happens during the game."
Ference was recently fined $2,500 by the league for his single-figured gesture in Game 4 of the series.

28 U.S. Code § 2406 - Credits in actions by United States; prior disallowance
In an action by the United States against an individual, evidence supporting the defendant's claim for a credit shall not be admitted unless he first proves that such claim has been disallowed, in whole or in part, by the Government Accountability Office, or that he has, at the time of the trial, obtained possession of vouchers not previously procurable and has been prevented from presenting such claim to the Government Accountability Office by absence from the United States or unavoidable accident.

Historical and Revision Notes
Based on title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., § 774 (R.S., §§ 236, 951; June 10, 1921, ch. 18, §§ 304, 305,42 Stat. 24).
Word "action" was substituted for "suits", in view of Rule 2 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.
Section 774 of title 28, U.S.C., 1940 ed., provided that "no claim for a credit shall be admitted, upon trial", etc. This was changed to "evidence supporting the defendant's claim for a credit shall not be admitted", to clarify the meaning of the section. The case of U.S. v. Heard, D.C.Va. 1940, 32 F.Supp. 39, reviews the conflicting decisions on the question whether compliance with the section must be pleaded, and offers persuasive argument that it need not be, and that the section was designed as a rule of evidence. The wording of the remainder of the section also supports this conclusion, as pointed out by Judge Learned Hand in U.S. v. Standard Aircraft Corp., D.C.N.Y. 1926, 16 F.2d 307, followed in the Heard case.
Changes in phraseology were made.
2004—Pub. L. 108–271substituted "Government Accountability Office" for "General Accounting Office" in two places.

Aud-X surround codec 1.24
on 24 January 2009 , reviewed by: michael james
this is a very important note for aud-x users. using the vdub mod (version 1.6) for aud-x, enable full processing mode for multichannel stream and save it as a WAVE. Next encode the PCM multichannal wave into an AUD-X mp3 file.
If you attempt to encode your DVD or multichannel video file directly in vdub you WILL get sync issue and audio corruption.
AUD-X and x264 with Vdub/mod are the perfect enocding tools for your movie archiving needs. Nothing else comes close for free or pay!
Of course a quad core setup with minimum 2gigs dual channel ram is recommended but if you got your own HTPC and hate normal TV or any TV with ads....make your own movie archive! I currently have over 600 cinema movie titles and over 15 TV series.

There it was in striking black and white: "Subject to final details from the White House."The one-liner was at the bottom of a Gov. Rick Snyder media advisory and ultra conservatives are wondering why is the GOP governor waiting around for "details from" of all places, "the White House."Because that's who Rick Snyder is. Another chance for bi-partisan cooperation and it was not the first, nor the last.The gig was designed to have the governor in the same room with key members of the Obama administration namely the Attorney General, the HUD honcho and Transportation Secretary and other hangers on to help Detroit.It was shades of Gov. Chris Christie walking around with the President himself in the aftermath of New Jersey's tragic hurricane Sandy. The occasion in Motown centered on the financial hurricane that threatens to bury the city and the rest of the state with it.And just like Mr. Christie, Mr. Snyder is not about to put on his GOP partisan hat and tell the White House folks to take a hike because they were riding in to deliver some badly needed financial largesse.This comes on the heels of the GOP governor appearing on another stage a couple of weeks ago with another prominent Democrat Rep. John Dingell (D-Dearborn.) The gov's media guys never release this stuff but dollars to donuts some Republican griped about that, too"How dare he appeared with Dingell?" you could almost hear the righties ask out loud.Because everything in this town is framed in a political context, there are many who believe the governor would actually damage his own standing with moderates and independent voters if he did not welcome the Obama team to down-trodden Detroit. Given a chance to play to his base, once more this governor will be perceived as off-base by those conservatives who voted for him last time, but may take a hike next year when given a second chance because he cuddles-up to Democrats way too often.It's a political risk this governor appears more than comfortable with otherwise he would have been in the governor's residence on the island and not rubbing elbows with Mr. Holder and friends and not collecting $300M for the city.

Central bank's Erkki Liikanen stresses Europe's aneamic growth prospects
The eurozone is heading for a prolonged period of anaemic growth and is blighted by excess capacity, a member of the European Central Bank board member said on Tuesday, ahead of its monetary policy meeting on Thursday.
There has been an improvement from a low [base] but it is very likely that the recovery will be sluggish, said Erkki Liikanen, a member of the ECBs Governing Council, said in an interview with Emerging Markets in Istanbul on Tuesday.
His comments strongly suggest the ECB will keep rates on hold at its October 8 interest rate meeting and caution that the risks to the global economy remain on the downside.
All central banks need to prepare for our exit stimulus strategies but monetary authorities can not say when they will do this, the Finnish central bank governor said.
With weak growth prospects and inflation expected to be low in the medium-term, Liikanen suggested a withdrawal of liquidity measures and monetary tightening would be premature.
There are excess capacities in the economy and unemployment is still going up and this has impact on private consumption and investment, he said.
Over the past year, the ECB has sliced 325 basis points from its main refinancing rate. The ECB meeting marks the first anniversary of the coordinated interest rate cuts by major central banks after financial catastrophe that was triggered by the mid-September collapse of Lehman Brothers.
He said a significant increase in capital raising by banks was a necessary but insufficient condition for financial stability, suggesting interest rates may be kept low to allow banks to issue equity.
The banking system still needs to be well-capitalized and they [banks] still have impaired assets and that has an impact on the economy, Liikanen said.
Nevertheless, he said the markets have bottomed out and cited the resumption of inter-bank borrowing and corporate lending, which are strong signals that the banking system has past the worst of the crisis.
Economists predict that the interest rates in the eurozone will not rise until the middle of next year at the earliest. Liikanen suggested that the pace of monetary tightening might be slow due to as firms readjust and repair balance sheets.
Whenever some capacity will not be fully used and it takes more time to reinvest in new areas, he said.
The World Bank estimates that excess capacity in the global economy will be as high as 6.5% below its potential upper level next year and it will take a further five years for it to improve to 2% below its potential upper level.
Justin Lin, chief economist at the World Bank said in Istanbul this weekend that with this kind of underutilization of capacity, we expect that unemployment will continue to rise for some time ... and private sector investment will be depressed.
Lin added: This means the [global] recovery will be very weak and the foundation for the recovery is fragile.
Liikanen also said structural growth prospects in the eurozone look bleak compared with a global bull run, due to the regions demographic pressures.
The decision by a joint venture between Russia and China to invest up to $2bn in key infrastructure projects will relieve the pressure on the Russian government to attract funds to offset the massive flight of capital
The Russian government's decisive moves in annexing Crimea and fomenting unrest in the Ukraine have fuelled fears among neighbouring states with large Russian-speaking populations
The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development is staging its annual meeting in Warsaw in a year that marks a number of important anniversaries for Poland, Eastern Europe and for the EBRD itself
A leading politician in Georgia last night condemned Russia's annexation of Crimea and intervention in Ukraine as fears mounted among other small CEE states, notably Lithuania and Estonia, that Moscow could take fresh steps to intervene in countries with large Russian speaking populations
An imminent signing of a $500m loan by Uralkali, the world's largest potash producer, has not convinced bankers that Russia's frozen international loan markets is anywhere near thawing out
The EBRD will take on Libya as a member this week but analysts are warning that the multilateral may be biting off more than it can chew
Regional banks sometimes turn into obstacles for SME lending. It is our job to encourage and/or enable them to boost their SME business.

Description of the data source, numerator, denominator, survey questions, and other relevant details about the national estimate.
Kaphingst and Story (2009) reported the regulations of all 50 U.S. states as they relate to physical activity promotion. The guidelines were set by the National Association for Sport and Physical Education. The initial assessment of physical activity policies was conducted in 2006.
Findings varied by setting (i.e. child care center, small family child care home, large family or group child care home). The requirements assessed included, activity programs engaging large muscle groups (19-39 states), daily outdoor activity time (24-36 states), quantified physical activity time requirements (2 states), and physical activity intensity requirements (2-10 states). These baseline data can be used as a benchmark to assess physical activity policies enacted at the state level. More information is available at the National Resource Center for Health and Safety in Child Care and Early Education Database website.

The Rochester Democrat and Chronicle is reporting that Michael Nylander's career is potentially in jeopardy as the veteran centre is set to undergo surgery Monday after injuring a vertebra in his neck on Saturday.
The 38-year old Nylander, who has been loaned to the Rochester Americans of the AHL by the Washington Capitals, suffered the injury when he was hit from behind by Grand Rapids Griffins' defenceman Brendan Smith. He fell awkwardly head first into the boards and headed immediately to the bench and then quickly the dressing room. He was later taken to a local hospital.
The rehabilitation process is expected to take a minimum of six months meaning that Nylander will be almost 40-years old before he is able to return to the game.
"He'll definitely have to do some soul-searching when he has recovered," Americans head coach Chuck Weber told the Democrat and Chronicle. "The little bit I do know him, I don't think this is the way he'll want to go out."
Nylander is in the final season of a four year deal with the Caps that will see him earn $3 million this season. The Florida Panthers, who are the parent team of the Americans, will pay the Capitals $100,000 for Nylander to play for Rochester this season.
In 19 NHL seasons split between Whalers, Flames, Lightning, Blackhawks, Rangers, Bruins and Capitals, the Stockholm native has 209 goals and 470 assists in 920 career games.
In seven games with the Amerks this season, he has four goals and two assists.
