The most notable part of the The CW's Upfront event in New York today?
No, not the CW 2013-20414 schedule, though that is sort of interesting.
Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev reuniting! At least on stage!
The Vampire Diaries stars, who recently called it quits after three years of dating, were "consummate professionals" at the big presentation to advertisers.
While Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder avoided a red carpet run-in, the stars joined network president Mark Pedowitz on stage. Hot (and awkward)!

ST.PAUL, Minn. (KFGO AM) -- A bill that extends cold weather rule-type protections to propane users in Minnesota has a hearing today in the Senate Commerce Committee.
Senator Kevin Dahle of Northfield says it requires propane suppliers to work out a reasonable payment plan with struggling customers, which some already do.
He just wants to ensure the process is more uniform and consumers have the protection they need.
The legislation would also regulate propane suppliers that have minimum delivery requirements, delivery fees and security deposits.
Some in the propane industry have expressed concern with the bill.

Star Tribune
For some Minnesota businesses, sales tax debate is all about fairness
Don't tell Wendy Brown that a business can't charge a sales tax and survive. She's been collecting the tax every time she gives a Schnauzer or a golden doodle a shampoo and a clip at her shop in south Minneapolis. So to her, Gov. Mark Dayton's proposal to lower the tax rate and spread it to a wider variety of businesses -- such as hair salons for humans -- is about fairness.
"I'm just surprised that hair salons have not been taxed," said Brown, owner since 1976 of Wendy's Doghouse, a pet grooming shop a few blocks west of the Minnehaha Dog Park. "I've been paying sales tax forever."
"The lines have been drawn over the years, and they've been relatively arbitrary," said Myron Frans, commissioner of the Minnesota Department of Revenue. "There's some people that say the rationale is simply, it depends on who was in the room when the bill was written."
"It's really silly that we've narrowed our sales tax so much," said Wade Vitalis, owner of the Drive-In Restaurant in Taylors Falls (closed for the winter) and Gransburg, Wis. Vitalis has been collecting sales tax for 26 years, adding it to the price of each patty melt and butterscotch malt. When businesses argue that they wouldn't be able to handle it and still prosper, he doesn't buy it.
"I don't have a lot of sympathy for that argument," he said. "If you can't figure out how to do it, someone will, because this is America."
Minnesota Public Radio
Dayton wants to boost funding for English language learning
CHASKA, Minn. — In hopes of boosting student achievement, Gov. Mark Dayton wants to boost funding for the state's English language learning programs by about $4.5 million a year, a 12 percent increase over current levels.
The governor's proposal is aimed at helping the 65,000 students in Minnesota for whom English is not a first language.
The state spends $40 million a year helping those students learn English, while they also study math, reading, writing, and other subjects.
Around the State
This week, cabinet level commissioners continued bringing the governor's budget proposal to the people of Minnesota. Yesterday, Office of Higher Education Director Larry Pogemiller visited with college students in Moorhead, discussing Governor Dayton's proposed investments in student financial aid. Today, Department of Human Services Commissioner Lucinda Jesson is in Duluth with Lt. Governor Yvonne Prettner Solon to discuss the governor's proposed investments in children's mental health. The governor's cabinet will continue traveling across Minnesota next week, holding conversations with Minnesotans about Governor Dayton's Budget for a Better Minnesota.
Today in the News
Minnesota Daily
Higher education grants may get boost
Higher education backers are excited that the governor's budget proposal could substantially increase state grant funding for lower-income students. Gov. Mark Dayton's biennial budget proposal provides $80 million for the Minnesota State Grant Program — a need-based financial assistance program used by a quarter of undergraduates at the University of Minnesota.
The proposed increase in student aid is the largest in more than 25 years, said Larry Pogemiller, director of the Minnesota Office of Higher Education.
"We've slipped behind in higher education, and now we are in a catch-up mode," said Rep. Lyndon Carlson Sr., DFL-Crystal. "The governor is trying to get us there as rapidly as he can with his proposal."
Minnesota has the third-highest postgraduate student debt rate in the country, according to the Institute for College Access and Success.
Gov. Dayton Addresses Issues at CSB
Governor Mark Dayton defended his budget proposal at a public forum last night. The governor said we have, "a rare opportunity to lead," in front of a large crowd at the College of St. Benedict.
Dayton covered a range of issues that include taxes, marriage equality and gun control. The governor called for an increase in taxes on wealthy Minnesotans to provide new revenue for the state. He said, "If people are doing better, they should want to pay more taxes." Dayton says everyone needs to chip in and pay their fair share.
The governor also made a pitch for an increase in higher education spending. He said Minnesota needs to, "put money where our values are."
Nearly 400,000 veterans call Minnesota home. Their commitment to service and their personal sacrifices have earned them the right to education, opportunities, and benefits.
Governor Dayton's budget seeks to underscore the service these men and women have given to our country and our state through GI Bill expansion, increased veteran services funding to secure benefits, Honor Guard preservation, and Health Care IT infrastructure improvements to raise the quality of care for our veterans to the highest degree.
The men and women of our armed forced have invaluable skills, skills the state of Minnesota looks to preserve and foster. The funds allocated in the budget invest in our veterans, help create a better Minnesota, and help veterans succeed.
» $1 Million to Expand the Minnesota GI Bill. The Governor's budget expands the Minnesota GI Bill program to all generations of veterans, not just those serving on or after 9/11. This expansion will ensure all Minnesota veterans have access to the education and training they need to get good paying jobs.
» $1 Million for County Veteran Service Office Grants. The Governor's budget provides increased grant funding for County Veteran Services Offices, which help veterans and their families obtain benefits and services earned through military service.
» $5 Million for Health Care IT Improvement. The Governor's budget invests in IT infrastructure upgrades at the Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs. This investment will allow the department to achieve industry standards in delivering high-quality health care to Minnesota veterans and ensure their safety.
» $400,000 for Honor Guards. The Governor's budget includes $400,000 in permanent funding for the Honor Guard Program, which supports veterans and their families by providing military burial honors earned through their service and sacrifice. Governor Dayton is committed to ensuring all veterans who request funeral honors receive them.
» $200,000 for the Gold Star Program. The Governor's budget includes $200,000 in permanent funding for the Gold Star Program, which supports the families of those service members who lost their lives in combat as they heal from their loss.
» $425,000 for new State Veterans Cemetery in Fillmore County. The Governor's budget includes start-up and ongoing funding for a new state veterans cemetery in Fillmore County, opening in 2015. This State Veterans Cemetery will provide burial space for nearly 40,000 veterans. Governor Dayton believes every veteran deserves a dignified final resting place.

Keeping our Kids Safe and Healthy
The health an safety of our youngest Minnesotans is at the center of Governor Dayton's Budget for a Better Minnesota. His budget proposal includes new funding to help prepare Minnesota schools for emergencies, provide expanded mental health services to our students, and prevents child abuse by expanding proven outreach strategies to at-risk families.
Every parent deserves the peace of mind that comes with knowing their child is safe at school. That's why one of Governor Dayton's budget priorities is the reestablishment of the Minnesota School Safety Center. The Center will provide training and education in the areas of emergency preparedness, response and recovery to schools, law enforcement, and outreach to community partners.
Governor Dayton's budget expands access to mental health services for children with complex, high-cost conditions through increased funding to schools. This proposal doubles the percentage of Minnesota schools providing these services, ensuring that more Minnesota students have the resources they need to be healthy in the classroom. Finally, Governor Dayton's budget also invests in the prevention and early detection of child abuse. The proposal expands proven outreach programs to at-risk families.
Governor Dayton is committed to investing in all aspects of public safety. For more information about Governor Dayton's budget, visit http://mn.gov/governor/budget or follow the conversation on Twitter at #BetterMN.
Building a better Minnesota starts with our kids. That is why Governor Dayton's budget invests $139 million in proven programs that will help Minnesota's children thrive today and in the future.
Minnesota can help our youngest children thrive by investing in better early education to help narrow the state's troubling achievement gap, and prepare children for success in school. In Governor Dayton's budget proposal, Early Childhood Education scholarships will help an additional 11,000 Minnesota children from low-income families afford high quality childcare and preschool. The proposed budget also allows for investments in optional All Day Kindergarten, providing access for 85% of Minnesota families—or nearly 54,000 children.
In addition to providing quality early childhood education, it is important to support strong and healthy Minnesota families. Governor Dayton's budget provides for increased rental assistance to low-income families, ensuring children don't have to endure a potentially disruptive move during the school year. The Governor's budget also increases funding for high quality childcare for children with special needs, and streamlines the adoption process to ensure it best serves the interests of Minnesota children.
Two years into his administration, Governor Mark Dayton is continuing his efforts to build a Better Minnesota. The Dayton Administration is taking note of what has been accomplished so far while still considering the work that is yet to be done.
One important component of building a Better Minnesota is supporting a clean and healthy environment. Minnesota is the Land of 10,000 lakes and a state where people care about the health and integrity of our natural resources. A healthy environment is central to the quality of life that all Minnesotans enjoy, and a crucial component in the success of our economy. Governor Dayton is committed to protecting and improving our natural resources, and leaving a legacy of clean water, cleaner air, and better parks and trails for future generations of Minnesotans.
For years, the Minnesota River has been considered one of the most polluted rivers in the state. But collaborative efforts across agencies have made important progress toward improving the health of the river.
Recent testing from the Pollution Control Agency showed marked improvements in dissolved oxygen, phosphorus, and chlorophyll levels. That means conditions have improved to support the health of fish and aquatic species populations in the river.
More work must be done to reduce sediment, bacteria, nutrients, and other contaminants in the river. But the work of over 40 wastewater treatment plants and other clean up efforts have put the Minnesota River on the path to recovery.
On February 1, Governor Mark Dayton and Department of Education Commissioner Brenda Cassellius, visited the North St. Paul-Maplewood Oakdale ISD 622, to celebrate February as "I Love to Read" Month. The Governor and Commissioner, along with Read It, enjoyed story time with the Kindergartners and third graders.
Two years into his administration, Governor Mark Dayton is making important progress toward building a Better Minnesota. Measuring that progress by the improvements Minnesotans have seen in their lives, families, communities, and economy, the Dayton Administration is taking inventory of what has been accomplished thus far, and considering the work that still remains to be done.
One crucial measure of that progress is ensuring Minnesotans have the education and skills they need to achieve their goals. Building a better Minnesota starts with giving our children and workforce a world-class education, and the skills they need to succeed in a global economy.
That is why Governor Dayton is strongly committed to providing more funding for K-12 classrooms and early childhood education, increasing per pupil spending, and making college more affordable for Minnesotans. Governor Dayton is also focused on helping working Minnesotans access the education and workforce training they need to compete and succeed in today's economy.
In 2011, Governor Dayton invested more than $55 million in early literacy. The Department of Education worked with every school district to develop local literacy plans that outline how curriculum, instruction, and assessments will be used to improve third grade reading scores.
Early results of this key investment are promising: In 2012, student in grades 3-8 made substantial overall gains in reading, with notable progress among American Indian and Hispanic students.
Today, Governor Dayton congratulated Minnesota Education Commissioner Brenda Cassellius and the state Department of Education (MDE) for reducing excessive paperwork on Minnesota's special education teachers. The reduction will enable educators to spend much less time filling out forms and much more time in the classroom teaching children with special needs.

Officine Generale SS14 Collection
Levi's Made & Crafted SS14 Pitti Preview
Although coming across new brands and getting in touch with the latest developments is definitely exciting, the warm, welcoming feeling of reuniting with an old time classic is special in its own way. For me, no matter how many alternatives fill the market, Levi's will forever remain the ultimate choice for time-tested, long-lasting denim. Its premium Made & Crafted line is a reminder that the iconic label is not only here to stay, but also dealing cards when it comes to delivering refreshing and updated takes on classics.

Eleventy SS14 Pitti Preview
After following Mr. Baldassari's label for quite some time, I must say expectations were high for Eleventy's upcoming collection: thankfully, they were not only met, but actually surpassed. Presenting a well balanced collection, Eleventy once again managed to deliver all-round pieces, perfect for polished everyday attires, with a unique panache. I guess the most appealing element for me is its core "casual meets sophisticated" essence, a trademark element that makes it easy for you to resonate with particular pieces, no matter which style you favor the most.
This time around, everything revolved around lightweight, comfortable fabrics, able to adjust to different body shapes. Tailored sports coats, hoodies and gilets mixed with washed jeans and chinos, exuded a contemporary urban feel achieved through unique layering; supple perforated suede bomber jackets made for perfect outerwear alternatives, while a wide range of accessories and shoes complemented the whole offering.

Beyond Fabric x Purificacion Garcia #1
Following my previous introduction to its SS13 collection, I got a chance to style some looks for Purificacion Garcia using my favourite pieces for the season.
Starting with what might just be my first choice among all the garments in the collection, and one of the season's essentials, this suede bomber jacket instantly earned its way to the top spots of my wishlist. The beautiful taupe shade with chambray lining and orange/burgundy highlights on the pockets and zippers, set the mood for the whole look. A contrasting pale blue crewneck sweater underneath, dark denim with contrast orange stitching and supple suede boots pick up the chromatic and texture themes. The stripped knit tie adds a dash of color and pattern to the mix..
Styling: Miguel Amaral Vieira
Rome: day 3 - Vintage finds
After checking all the high end labels located in Via Condotti and Veneto, we indulged on one of my favourite hobbies: vintage shop browsing. I can get lost for hours in these places and Rome was a pleasant surprise, offering a great selection of pieces at affordable prices and some of the nicest people I've ever met (more on that later). I've been looking for a suede bomber for a while and this one immediately caught my eye hanging amidst waxed Barbour jackets and Burberry trenches: mint condition, snug fit, outstanding camel shade and a €65,00 price tag, perfect. Paired with white jeans it's a tough one to beat…green sweatshirt for that contrast shade and an unexpected twist with the burgundy scarf creating an extra layer at the waist. Not to be worn everyday, but it's nice to experiment and think out the box for a change…
Details: vintage camel suede bomber jacket, garden green great sweat by Our Legacy, grey crewneck tee by Levi's, white slim fit jeans by Massimo Dutti, aviators by Ray Ban, watch by Gucci, bracelets by street vendor and burgundy paisley scarf by Zara.

Blizzard celebrate Diablo 3 success with booze-up
26 May 2012  by
Earlier this week Blizzard revealed that a whopping 6.3 million copies of Diablo 3 have now been sold making it the fastest selling PC game ever.
Sure the game is being criticised by some die-hard fans left right and centre and the launch didn't go as smoothly as planned, but you have to celebrate that 6.3 million somehow. Best way to do it? Get the drink in and that's exactly what they have done.
Blizzard's Corey Stocktom Tweeted this picture earlier and I don't think I have seen so much bubbly on one table ever.
There's going to be some thumping headaches at Blizzard HQ this week.

"She's called a few different things, which are inappropriate to say. But she's called Regina still. Your Highness. Your Majesty. She's not in a great place, let's say. The curse is broken and the cat's out of the bag. Everyone knows who she is, and they want justice and rightfully so. She is going to have to fight long and hard for a couple of things. One, most importantly, her son, Henry. I think that is pretty much the main focus of this character in the second season at this time. She's lost her son, and that comes with [some] challenges. She's less concerned with the curse being broken right now, as she is with getting her son back, and she realizes that it's something that not many people see. I see it because I play the character, but she's a very hard, a very loyal, committed person and I mean this in the sense that when you think about her love for Daniel, in the first season, she does everything after the point when he dies to get back at Snow White for him. She's really kind of hung up over [it] and [it's] very similar with Henry. Losing Henry, I think if she doesn't get Henry for the next twenty years, she will not stop clawing and fighting for that person. [That's what] I saw in the character in the second season, and [she is] also extremely resilient."
– Lana Parrilla (x)
Surely Regina must realize the fastest & easiest way to get Henry back is just to marry his mum. No brainer, really.

The Smyrna Chapel was located on route 372 between Georgetown and Christiana. It was a non-denominational community church building, supposed to have been built prior to 1800 and was first used as a school building and later as a residence.
Mr. Abner Armstrong purchased the building and later sold it to Mr. John Wilson, who in turn sold it to the people of the community, who secured the money by soliciting contributions from the citizens of the neighborhood. It is listed as The Smyrna Chapel Sun-day School Association. The building cannot be sold since it is Community property. There are still a couple of families in the area whose parents helped to obtain this place of worship.
So far as is known Mr. George Schweiger of Georgetown was the first lay pastor. It was a small church but had been blessed in many ways. The Church helped support several Missionaries and had grown spiritually through the preaching of Christ and his Word, the Bible. Services were disbanded in the 1960s.

This past Saturday, May 3rd was the grand opening of a much needed grocery store in the Visitacion Valley area. Grocery Outlet on Bayshore Boulevard opened its doors to the neighborhood with some great festivities. They gave a pallet of food worth $1000 to the Visitacion Valley Strong Families, offered free coffee, free eco-frugal reusable bags for the first 500 customers, games, prizes, free face painting for the kids, and more! This area has been missing a good grocery store for quite some time. My grandparents, who have lived in the neighborhood for 4 decades, used to take the bus to Chinatown for all their grocery needs because they couldn't find it close to home. However, with their age now, they aren't able to take the bus and carry all their groceries back home anymore, therefore Grocery Outlet being blocks away from their house, is something very needed! When I lived in Visitacion Valley, I would have to drive to all the surrounding neighborhoods to get everything I … [Read more...]
The Christmas Angel Review & Giveaway-Ends 12/15
Wow, I can't believe it's December and I am writing a post that is Christmas related! Time is flying by too fast. So for the last 2 years, I have actually been looking into something like the Elf On The Shelf (EOTS), where kids can look forward to finding a surprise in the morning. However, I never brought myself to make the purchase for one because I didn't like the message/purpose of the EOTS. I didn't like that the elf was supposed to be Santa's messenger keeping tabs on children and if they were "good" they got gifts and if they were "bad" they didn't get anything. I wanted Kiggster to behave not for gifts but because she loves and respects us. Also, I hated thinking that EOTS always seemed to be a naughty elf who was checking up on all the kids but setting a bad example?! So I was thinking of making the purchase this year but using the doll in my own way. Well, in searching for the right vendor to purchase it from, I came across The Christmas Angel and fell in love! The … [Read more...]
Nuby Wacky Ware Bowl With Lid Review
I love to get things that are not only functional but also fun to look at or play with. So when I saw the Nuby Wacky Ware bowl http://nuby.com/en/nuby/solid-feeding/5207/ , I knew I had to try it out with Kiggster. Immediately before I could even take the package off and wash the bowl, Kiggster was jumping all over me asking to have the bowl! We took it for a test spin during Christmas dinner with my family, which sometimes could be the ultimate test because there's always pre-dinner snacks and other things so when dinner comes around, she may not want to eat. But throughout the night, she actually asked to use her bowl, even asking if her snacks could be put into it. We received the purple colored bowl and it comes with a tightly fitted lid. This lid does not have any little plastic or silicone pieces to take apart, which I love! It just needs to be snapped on tightly to the bowl to ensure that it's leak/spill proof. When the … [Read more...]
Miessence Sunflower Body Wash Review
I actually was looking for a baby wash for Kiggster that wasn't filled with tons of chemicals or junk and that's how I got to trying Miessence's Sunflower Body Wash. What I didn't expect was how much I'd love it for me too. I knew it was something that was meant for the whole family and great for babies as a bath wash product but I am one that is sometimes stuck in her ways and since I already had a ton of body washes, I was just getting it was Kiggster in mind. I was very wrong! This bottle actually started out towards the edge of the bathtub because that's where I could reach it best while giving Kiggster a bath. Well, let's just say, it quickly moved its way up top to where the showerhead is and where all the treasured bath products aka my bath products are kept! At first I was using it as a bubble bath but I wasn't using very much product because I didn't want to "waste" it since the bottle … [Read more...]
Miessence: DeepGreen Alkalising Superfood Review
Am I the only one that seems to have trouble getting the family to eat enough vegetables?! It seems no matter what we try Kiggster's first choice foods are noodles, rice, and popcorn and Honey's are chili mangoes and chai tea. Sometimes we can get a couple bites of veggies in Kiggster and sometimes meat but it's unpredictable when she wants them. So I needed to look for alternative methods to deliver those veggies in the least painful way possible! That's when I discovered Miessence's Deep Green Alkalising Superfood. Keeping the correct pH balance in our bodies is vital for ongoing good health. Failing to keep that balance can result in loss of minerals that results in reduced bone density associated with osteoporosis. A body which is too acidic has been linked to other conditions including athersclerosis, kidney and gallbladder stones and arthritis. Deep Green Alkalising is the solution. Made from the freeze dried juices … [Read more...]
Nuby Fish Swoosh Bath Time Play Set Review
I love toys that are gender neutral and are multi-functional. Nuby's Fish Swoosh Bath Time Play Set is a basketball hoop and bath squirts in one. Plus the colors can be used for both boys and girls, which is great if you have multiple kids or just want to keep it for more than one child. The fish swoosh bath toy needed some assembly but only just some clicking and snapping together the hoop to the board and it's ready to go. The suction cups on the toy are nice and strong, wish I could say the same for other suction cup bath toys we own. It comes with 3 different colored bath squirt fishes and during bath time we love to name the colors of the fish before we have a water fight with them. Then we cinch up the drawstring at the bottom of the basketball net and we dunk some fishes. Ok, I like to cinch up the net but Kiggster likes to free the fishes...she thinks I'm trapping them! The bath squirts float in the water and … [Read more...]
Nuby: Tub Time Turtle Review
Kiggster loves bath times and that might even be an understatement! So of course, I am always in a state of searching for the next bath toy for her! That's where I can introduce you to Nuby's Tub Time Turtle. The tub time turtle can float on his back, bobble around on his tummy, and when you lift him out of the water, he creates a trickling waterfall effect! Kiggster's been having a great time with him in the bath, Tub Time Turtle has a cute little smile on him and little holes scattered strategically throughout his turtle shell. So when she first lifted turtle from out of the water and saw the water coming out of the shell into the tub, all she could say was... "Wow!" She made turtle go from the top of the tub and dive down into the water, made him float, and made him sprinkle water on her! It's a pretty lightweight toy and has tons of places to put her little hands, whether it's cupping it over the shell, holding it … [Read more...]
Miessence: Nourishing Hand Cream Review
With the cold fall and winter weather, my hands are desperately seeking a good hand cream! Once November hits, my hands get so dry, it starts bleeding at the cracks and I have knuckles that look like I just participated in a boxing match! Each year, I try tons of different products to see if it will help with my dry, cracking, and even bleeding hands. But what I noticed with a lot of those products was that they may be too thick and oily making me leave a residue on everything I touch, too thin and doesn't actually help my dry skin, or they wash off the moment my hands touch water. That's where I'd like to introduce you to Miessence's Nourishing Hand Cream. The Nourishing Hand Cream is an ultra-rich, nourish cream with natural antioxidants that help protect the hands from environmental stress. Organic shea butter and phospholipids keep the hand soft, supple and smooth with a subtle perfume of divine organic rose geranium essential … [Read more...]
Nuby: No-Spill Sport Sipper Review
I had been trying to find a good to-go cup for Kiggster when we give her milk but it seems a lot of cups trap milk into the little crevices or inside the tiny straws and cause mold to grow or make the cup smell funny. So I wanted a cup that didn't have a straw, was no spill, and relatively easy to clean. That's when I got a Nuby No Spill Sport Sipper for review. What I liked was that the cup did not utilize an inside straw but is more of a sports bottle type design. Here is what Nuby says about their No-Spill Sport Sipper: No matter what recreational activity your child is engaged in, the No-Spill™ Sport Sipper by Nûby™ is perfect for parents and children on the go! Why? Because Nûby™ developed the Sport Sipper with an innovative, ergonomic shape with easy grips that ensures a comfortable and secure grasp for you child. Also included is the unique soft silicone straw with a built-in valve; it opens with sucking action … [Read more...]
Nuby: Tear-Free Rinse Pail Review
I was recently given a Nuby Tear-Free Rinse Pail for review and I have to admit, I wasn't sure how it would work out for us. Kiggster loves water but hates having water in her eyes and can't be bothered with me rinsing her while she is playing with her toys either! When I received the tear-free rinse pail, I was surprised at the size, for some reason, I thought it was going to be a lot smaller but it was actually bigger than Kiggster's head. There weren't dimensions given in the item description but when I measured it, it was approximately, x x x. The larger size turned out to be a good thing because I didn't have to continuously refill the pail to get her head all rinsed. It's only been taking around 2 scoops of water with the pail to get out all the suds! Here is what Nuby says about their rinse pail: The Tear-Free Rinse Pail is designed to make bath time easier and … [Read more...]

"Ms. Robertson, can I nominate a Top Dog based on our apprenticeship today?" Not only was Lilly working hard during our apprenticeship last week– she was also noticing Sierra and wanting to recognize her effort. I told Lilly that students are usually eligible for a Top Dog nomination after going above and beyond our expectations throughout the week and across program elements (apprenticeships, math league, explorations, etc.). "But I've been seeing her work SO hard today. She is showing so much teamwork and perseverance!"
Our apprenticeship– Civic Engagement– brings incredible drive into all of our students. For the past two weeks, we've worked on painting a wall and planting flowers and shrubs at Joseph Gomes Park. After the ten minute walk, students have a bit over an hour to get dirt under their nails and paint on their t-shirts (and mine, curiously enough). Thanks to 30 hard-working hands, we'll already be done with this big project by the end of week 3.
My students' hands want to be moving. They want to touch and hold things. Their feet hunger to jump and run. Their bodies want to be outside and their mouths want to be asking their questions and speaking their truths. When given the opportunity and the guidance, these young individuals direct all of this joy, energy, and desire into something productive and beautiful.
Our Civic Engagement apprenticeship is off to a fantastic start. I'm not sure if Sierra will earn Top Dog this week, but I'm confident that she and her fellow apprentices are on the path to learn about paint, plants, and especially community in an impactful way.

Speaker Curator / Teacher, TEDxTokyo
This conversation is closed.
What is the best way to use a TEDx event to motivate teachers to be more creative, entertaining, innovative, enthralling, etc.?
I am starting to think about the next TEDxTokyoTeachers and I would love to hear what the TED community has to say about motivating teachers TED style. I know there are a lot of workshops and education seminars that focus on making better teachers, but what can I do with a few hours, a few drinks, and a TEDx format to make better teachers?
If you are in the Tokyo area in March I would be more than willing to get your idea on stage.

Sep 25 2012: I can only speak of the US educational paradigm, and what I have to say is not good. Educators seem to be the biggest deterrent to educational reform. They cling to the pedagogical view that teachers are there to teach and students are there to learn. It is a rare teacher (I've never met one, but I love the videos you present and have seen others) who believes that teachers are there to inspire the joy of learning. They simply do not see that as an objective. They use excuses like standardized testing, but a rare few "get it". One can compete in standardized testing while inspiring the joy of learning. It's more challenging. It requires more of a teacher.
Two weeks ago, I was in my knitting circle and the issue of the Chicago teachers' strike came up. The majority of the group are retired teachers who supported the strike. They also realized that there has to be reform in education, but from their point of view, that means ending standardized testing.
I mentioned that I had only recently understood why that is a bad thing, and that the teachers would do well if they would educate parents about why it is a bad thing. No one in the group would let me continue. They didn't want to hear about Dr. Kaku as he explained it. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LelNYqVEOZQ&list=PL89DA217D574A8362&index=8&feature=plpp_video ) Turns out, they don't know what's wrong with it themselves.
I started to mention a TED video where research is showing that if you put kids in small groups (pods) and allow them to talk about what they are learning, that the kids seem to have visual memory of the events, and they remember things far longer. The group was outraged. Put the desks in a row facing the teacher and let the teachers teach - that's what they're there for.
I've become pretty convinced that teachers should have term limits. A year of volunteerism. Either that, or teachers should have to compete for students like businesses have to compete for clients.
Jason WolfeSep 25 2012: TED Lover,
It sounds like you were in a very conservative group of teachers/people and as an educator I know some teachers like that, but, and here comes the good news, there are a lot of great teachers out there moving away from just memorizing and testing, and getting kids to work together to solve problems, learn from each other and then later reflect on it by writing it down and learning it again. The International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) http://www.ibo.org/ is one very large group that has some great ideas around learning.
I like your idea of competing for students, could be a great way to stay motivated and in the game. Term limits would also limit really good teachers...how would you keep them in the system?
Oct 8 2012: I've heard myself saying "term limits" too and share the fear of losing good teachers, but what if we had an educational system where there is encouragement to move up? For example: a teacher fulfils the term (say 10 years) then moves up into a position of training and mentoring, administration (school level or higher) or curriculum development?

Much of the work on a wildfire happens far from the flames. On the King fire in the California's Gold Country, hand crews wield chainsaws and bulldozers cut fire lines to prevent flames from spreading. (Sept. 19)
An out-of-control Northern California wildfire has nearly 2,800 people from their homes as it continues to grow, authorities said Thursday. Authorities said a man has been arrested on suspicion of arson for starting the fire on Saturday. (Sept. 18)
SAN FRANCISCO — Crews scrambled Monday to extend control lines around a massive Northern California wildfire threatening thousands of homes as they braced for strong, erratic winds similar to when the blaze doubled in size a week ago.
The King Fire east of Sacramento had burned through 137 square miles, an increase of about 9 square miles overnight despite crews making some progress in cooler and slightly wet conditions.
But expected warmer temperatures, low humidity and winds of up to 30 mph could increase fire activity, state fire spokesman Capt. Tom Piranio said.
"This could set up some potential fire growth similar to what we experienced when it grew exponentially last week," Piranio said. "We are working very aggressively to maintain the contingency lines."
Last week, the blaze grew to 111 square miles overnight when winds surged to more than 25 mph, the state forestry and fire protection department reported. More than 5,000 firefighters — from as far as Florida and Alaska — have worked around the clock to increase the fire containment from 10 to 18 percent by Monday.
However, a red flag warning has been issued for Tuesday as gusty winds could reach up to 35 mph by Wednesday, said Holly Osbourne, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Sacramento.
"It's definitely going to pose a challenge to the control lines the firefighters have created," said Osbourne, adding that there's also a slight chance for rain Thursday.
The wildfire which started on Sept. 13 continues to threaten about 21,000 structures, more than half of them homes. It has destroyed 10 homes and 22 outbuildings in the White Meadows area of Pollock Pines, according to preliminary figures released Sunday.
About 100 evacuees were allowed to return home, but some 2,700 remain under evacuation orders, state fire spokesman Daniel Berlant said. The fire also continued to threaten a key University of California, Berkeley research station that is home to scores of experiments on trees, plants and other wildlife.
The blaze was spreading smoke beyond California, with the National Weather Service issuing a "dense smoke advisory" in Reno, Nevada and Lake Tahoe on Monday some 100 miles away. Shifting winds later pushed the worst of the smoke back west.
Those winds sent the air quality index into the "very unhealthy" level for general populations in Auburn northeast of Sacramento — where some schools closed, as well as the Roseville and Rockville areas.
For the first time since a smoky haze drifted into western Nevada more than a week ago from a huge California wildfire nearly 100 miles away, the National Weather Service issued a "dense smoke advisory" for Reno and Lake Tahoe on Monday before shifting winds pushed the worst of it back west across the Sierra.
A man charged with starting the fire, Wayne Allen Huntsman, 37, pleaded not guilty to arson Friday. He remains in the El Dorado County jail on $10 million bail.

- Disclaimer
- How to Read a Study Record
The goal of this clinical research study is to find the highest tolerable dose of the combination of ipilimumab and imatinib that can be given to patients with advanced cancer. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
Ipilimumab is designed to increase the immune system's ability to fight cancer.
Imatinib is designed to bind to certain proteins on the tumor cells, which may prevent the cells from growing.
Advanced Cancers
Drug: Ipilimumab
Drug: Imatinib Mesylate
Phase 1
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:
|A Phase I Trial of Ipilimumab (Immunotherapy) and Imatinib Mesylate (c-Kit Inhibitor) in Patients With Advanced Malignancies
- Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Ipilimumab and Imatinib Mesylate [ Time Frame: 56 days ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) defined as highest dose level with less than 2 patients with dose limiting toxicity (DLT) out of at least six patients in the cohort.
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|February 2013
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|February 2017 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Ipilimumab + Imatinib Mesylate
The dose escalation portion of this study will consist of an initial daily oral administration of imatinib mesylate 400 mg alone for 14 days. A single Ipilimumab treatment 1 mg/kg given on day 15 will be added to daily imatinib mesylate therapy. Dose escalation group first study cycle is 35 days. Each cycle after that is 21 days. This study has an expansion cohort using the MTD determined by the dose escalation study to treat patients with KITconfirmed GIST, melanoma, and uncategorized solid tumors. Both studies will consist of a screening visit and continuous 21-day treatment cycles. Cycles will be repeated every 21 days for 4 cycles until disease progression or development of intolerable toxicities, and a post-treatment visit.
Drug: Ipilimumab
Dose Escalation Group Starting Dose: 1 mg/kg by vein on day 15. The first study cycle is 35 days. Each cycle after that is 21 days.
Dose Expansion Group Starting Dose: MTD from Dose Escalation Group.
Other Names:Drug: Imatinib Mesylate
Dose Escalation Group Starting Dose: 400 mg by mouth once per day for 35 days. The first study cycle is 35 days. Each cycle after that is 21 days.
Dose Expansion Group Starting Dose: MTD from Dose Escalation Group.
Other Names:
Show Detailed Description
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|15 Years and older
|Genders Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- For dose escalation study, patients must have histological confirmation of solid tumors that is metastatic or unresectable. For expansion cohorts, patients must have metastatic or unresectable GIST, melanoma, or uncategorized tumors that are positive for c-KIT mutations. KIT positive tumors will be confirmed in original biopsied tumors and biopsied tumors acquired during this study. This analysis will be done by CLIA approved mutational analysis which will likely include isolation of genomic DNA from tumor, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of exons of interest of c-KIT gene, bidirectional sequencing of PCR amplicons, and computational analysis of sequences to determine mutation presence or absence.
- Patients who have completed previous therapies 4-weeks prior to (or within 5 drug half lives) enrollment on study. Radiation therapy wash out period will be 2 weeks. This includes an exception of patients with metastatic GIST tumors who are taking maintenance imatinib mesylate therapy. These patients are allowed to remain on imatinib mesylate therapy up to enrollment in this study.
- Age > or = 15 years
- ECOG performance status < 2 (Karnofsky > 60%).
- Patients must have normal organ and marrow function as defined below: leukocytes > 3,000/mcL; absolute neutrophil count >1,500/mcL; platelets > 100,000/mcL, total bilirubin < or = 2.0 mg/dL. (Does NOT apply to patients with Gilbert's Syndrome); AST(SGOT)/ALT(SGPT) < 2.5 X institutional upper limit of normal (patients with liver involvement will be allowed < or = 5.0 X institutional upper normal limit) serum creatinine < 2.0 mg/dL
- Patients MUST have recovered from all treatment related toxicities to Grade 1 NCI CTCAE (v 4.0) in severity
- Patients must be willing and able to review, understand, and provide written consent before starting therapy
- Patients with histologically proven intracranial glioblastoma, gliosarcoma or anaplastic astrocytoma will be eligible. Patients must have shown unequivocal radiographic evidence for tumor progression by MRI scan. A scan should be performed within 14 days prior to registration and on a steroid dose that has been stable for at least 5 days. If the steroid dose is increased between the date of imaging and registration, a new baseline MRI is required.
- Patients in the expansion cohort must also agree to participate in the immunotherapy platform protocol (PA13-0291).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Autoimmune disease: Patients with a history of inflammatory bowel disease (including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis) and autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic progressive sclerosis [scleroderma], Systemic Lupus Erythematosus or autoimmune vasculitis [e.g., Wegener's Granulomatosis] are excluded from this study.
- History of acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess, GI obstruction, abdominal carcinomatosis or other known risk factors for bowel perforation.
- Any underlying medical or psychiatric condition, which in the opinion of the Investigator, will make the administration of study drug hazardous or obscure the interpretation of Adverse Events (AEs): e.g. a condition associated with frequent diarrhea or chronic skin conditions, recent surgery or colonic biopsy from which the patient has not recovered, or partial endocrine organ deficiencies.
- Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, history of congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements.
- Known HIV, Hepatitis B, or Hepatitis C.
- Any non-oncology vaccine therapy used for prevention of infectious diseases (for up to one month prior to or after any dose of ipilimumab).
- Concomitant therapy with any of the following: IL-2, interferon or other non-study immunotherapy regimens; cytotoxic chemotherapy; immunosuppressive agents; other investigational therapies; or chronic use of systemic corticosteroids (used in the management of cancer or non-cancer-related illnesses).
- Patients who do not agree to practice appropriate birth control methods while on therapy.
- Pregnant women are excluded from this study. Women of child-bearing potential and men must agree to use contraception prior to study entry and for the duration of study participation. Should a woman become pregnant or suspect she is pregnant while participating in this study, she should inform her treating physician.

One of the fun parts of working at the Library is getting to talk to the customers about the various books they read and recommend. The other day, a woman wanted to read the sequels to Heidi, the children's classic by Johanna Spyri. I didn't even know there were sequels. I searched MCPL's catalog and didn't find anything. I got on WorldCat and, sure enough, there were two sequels by Charles Tritten, Heidi Grows Up and Heidi's Children.
