In Memoriam
Maestra Bertha Gómez Maqueo
September 10, 1914 – August 23, 2014
MEXTESOL regrets to inform the English Language Teaching Community in Mexico of the death of one of its beloved founding members, Bertha Gomez Maqueo.
Messages in English or Spanish of condolences and remembrances can be sent to MEXTESOL (firstname.lastname@example.com) which will publish/display these messages on this website and convey them to the Gómez-Maqueo family. We invite you to share your stories and photos of Bertha.
Ulrich Schrader, Academic Consultant, MEXTESOL
I had already been a member of MEXTESOL for a few years in 1978 when Bertha Gomez Maqueo was President of MEXTESOL and the local co-chair of the 12th TESOL Convention held in Mexico City. That year was a pivotal moment in my professional life: I became more deeply aware of and involved in the fascinating, wider world of ELT in Mexico and beyond and became motivated to start attending the annual MEXTESOL convention in Guanajuato in the fall of that same year and to shortly thereafter begin studying a Master's Degree in TESOL where many of my teachers were (and still are) MEXTESOL luminaries. Many years later, when I myself became President of MEXTESOL in 1993 I could always count on receiving encouraging words whispered to me by Bertha Gomez Maqueo motivating me to do my best. Bertha always had positive words to say for whatever I was doing in my early years of active participation in MEXTESOL governance and in the last twelve years or so would give me approving looks and comments that showed she felt that MEXTESOL was in good hands. In the last several years when I saw her at her birthday masses she would always ask me how MEXTESOL was doing and I would tell her that things were going well….and Bertha would nod approvingly.

In the end I was the mean girl
Or somebody's in-between girl
Now it's the Devil I love
And it's as funny as real love
And that's as real as true love
Bells and footfalls and soldiers and dolls
Brothers and lovers she and I were
Now she seems to be sand under his shoes
Full version here.
*Collapses from exhaustion* Holy hell, this was supposed to be a simple warm-up painting, but then it went and exploded into this huge big thing!
When in doubt, draw Vriska. And maybe some Terezi for good measure. ;)
Also, sorry for the terrible scan. I'll redo it once I have access to a better machine.

Heidi Klum will file for divorce from Seal ... TMZ has learned.
Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Heidi will file divorce papers in L.A. County Superior Court as early as next week. We're told Heidi will cite "irreconcilable differences" as the cause for the divorce.
The couple married May 10, 2005. They have 3 biological kids. Seal adopted Heidi's eldest girl from a prior relationship.
The couple is famous for renewing their vows every year on their anniversary ... in a lavish ceremony.
As for splitting up the goodies, there's a lot on the line. According to Forbes, in the last year alone, Klum raked in $20 million. It's unclear how much Seal made.
Heidi attended last Sunday's Golden Globes without Seal. The last photo she tweeted with him was back on December 26.
The last time TMZ filmed Seal and Heidi together, we asked her what the key to a successful marriage is. She didn't answer the question.

Wow. My jaw literally dropped. This is sad. They seemed so inlove.
She's too much of a diva and it's probably pissing her off that he's not as rich and famous as he used to be.
Man, just when yo think maybe one famous couple has it together, but nope! Always a bummer, especially for the kids.
Good thing she still looks good.
At first it seemed like a sweet love story; he married her while she was prego with another man's baby and raised it as his own(not many men would do!), but then later I noticed she had black eyes she tried to cover with sunglasses and I remember wondering if maybe he beat her up (esp. after his scuffle with photogs) and wonder again if maybe I was right...
Good god it's abought time. Too bad she is to old to have kids, What a waste
I saw Seal years ago at a relatively intimate venue. Mostly just him on stage with a guitar. He is REALLY talented! I even talked to him for a minute or so after the show and he seemed like a really nice guy. Oh well, good luck to them both. I'll miss their Halloween adventures.
too much available young stuff for him to resist
I'm always suspect when couples, celebrity and non-celebrities show boat their love ; their renewing of their vows seemed so phony and all about publicity. I remember on Oprah hearing Heidi say 'we do this every year to show our love'..well, at that time they'd been married two years. I was hoping I was wrong and those 'vow renewals ' meant something besides for show.
Ok, who cheated on who?
The ones who always get hurt the most.....the kids.
The ones who get the most....the lawyers.
"One day you're in, the next day, you're out" (said in snappy little tone like Heidi says it)
Did Heidi just eliminate Seal from her own runway?
Usually not too surprised over these announcements but this go round you can color me shocked.....They always seemed to be schlepping the kids around in a kind of normal manner and all....hope they remain on good terms for the kids.....
The kids always lose. Damn these stars.
I would have thought these two would have put more effort into keeping their marriage. They always seemed like such a strong couple. I'm as shocked as others at reading this news. I hope the source is full of it. I've never read anything that even indicated they had any problems. Hope they tried to work things out and didn't just throw in the towel. Their poor children. :(
Seal is a real A@@ HOLE and a super control freak,everybody that knows them knows this.TMZ this is old news you are slipping slipping away.

Seeds of Change
Our Mission ~ In 1989, we at Seeds of Change started with a simple mission: to help preserve biodiversity and promote sustainable, organic agriculture. We sought to do this by cultivating and disseminating an extensive range of open-pollinated, organically grown, heirloom and traditional vegetable, flower and herb seeds. This is still our mission.
We seek out traditional varieties from the Americas and treasured heirlooms from abroad, many of which are in danger of being lost due to the rapid consolidation within the seed industry and the decline of indigenous agriculture and seed-saving knowledge.
In addition to our seeds, we've since grown to offer a broad selection of 100% organic seedlings, pears, apples, as well as gardening tools, books and an extensive line of our own organic foods. We believe there is a solution to one of modern day's largest environmental crisis: The loss of diversity and erosion/pollution of our precious soil. Our conventional agricultural methods are polluting our planet, ourselves and future generations, as well as squandering our valuable soil, water, and energy resources. We believe we can make a change to all of this: starting with our seeds.
They began a Chocolate business that grew into a household name in their community. After years of building a thriving business, they realized that they needed to shift their attention to organic products. Being long time vegetarians (since 1970) and health conscious retails themselves, they felt they needed their personal beliefs reflected in their business, thus the beginning of Sjaak's Organic chocolates.)

Inside The NBA
Baron Davis's Comeback Trail Leads Him To A Dark Place: The TNT Broadcast Booth
A host of cameos make it into part four of the enigmatic guard's comeback mockumentary, as he seeks more realistic employment off the court. Shrewd move. Too bad this is all a ruse and we have proof he's dead serious about getting a 10-day contract. The plot thickens, after the jump…
'Inside The NBA' Has A Frank Conversation On Whether Shaq And Kobe Should Have Stayed Together
It's the question that will loom large over NBA history for eternity, or until the sun explodes: How many more championships would the Lakers have won if Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal had stayed together?
The 'Inside The NBA' Guys Made 'Kellen Winslow Masturbating' Jokes While Doing The Highlights

On The Final Inside The NBA Of The Season, Charles Barkley Ripped Skip Bayless, Shaq, The 'Big Ol' Women' Of San Antonio
The NBA playoffs — henceforth known as the NBA Finals — will be switching to ABC for the next four to seven games, meaning TNT and its fantastic Inside The NBA show is done for the season. So it was only fitting that Charles Barkley went out in a fit of insult glory. Frankly, he just went off last night.

My biggest problem with the strictly linear questing is not that I'm forced to take tedious quests, but that I'm forced to take quests that I just wouldn't take, or that my character would never take.
For example, in Thousand Needles, in order to get to the quest chains involving Magatha and the Grimtotem, I was forced to try and scam a clan of centaurs out of their land with fake gold, and then when that failed, kill them and plant an oil well in their land anyway. This is something my character NEVER would have done, and I (the player) found the actions disgusting. However, in order to progress through the zone, I was forced to do them.
I like the linear questing, but I feel that Blizzard should still have kept the major quest chains separate. The zones would still progress smoothly for the player, but if for whatever reason the player did not want to do a specific questline, they wouldn't have to give up on the zone (and the lead-in quests to the next zone) entirely.

Last week, the Cape Wind offshore wind farm was approved by the federal government, but there were still some unknowns left to deal with, a major one being who would buy the power the wind farm generated. Today, that part has at least partially been decided, with Massachusetts utility National Grid agreeing to purchase half of the buy generic levitra from india power starting in 2013.
Under the contract, National Grid will buy the electricity at 20.7 cents per kWh, which will lead to my canadian pharmacy online an increase of only about $1.59 per month on its customers energy bills.
The contract is cialis online doctor a win-win for National Grid and viagra low price Cape Wind. The agreement is enough for the wind farm to start securing financing and investors and the electricity being purchased will equal three percent of the utility's total load -- a big step towards a state requirement to get 15 percent of their total electricity from renewable sources by 2020.
The project is set to be completed by the end of 2012, but there are still other hurdles to clear: more purchase agreements are needed, many lawsuits have been filed to halt the project and lots of red tape lays ahead to build the wind farm.

That is wrong.
That's the projected increase for customers using only 500 KWHours per month - which is about half the only for you purchase viagra soft tabs national residential average, and probably about 2% of what Al Gore uses at home.
Remember, businesses use much more electricity that residences.
There will also be automatic annual rate increases each year of buy levitra generic the 15 year contract, adding up to a 50% rate increase over that time.
And I'll bet that there are clauses in the contract that allow for even more rate increases too.
Thorium-powered nuclear energy is the only way to go. Clean, safe, cheap power. Pull the thorium from our coal, and liquefy the coal to power our cars.
We need to be reducing energy costs, not increasing them.

More than 26,000 responses were received during the Scottish Government's consultation on an independence referendum.
The figure is higher than the 21,000 the Government estimated on the closing day of the consultation, which asked for views on proposals to hold a referendum in the autumn of 2014.
More than 160 organisations including the Scottish Trades Union Congress, Electoral Commission, National Union of Students and Scottish Council for Voluntary Organisations have already published their responses.
Deputy First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said: "This is a fantastic response from the people of Scotland, with over 26,000 contributions to the consultation - over 10 times the number that responded to the UK Government's consultation on the same issue.
"This positive level of response sends a clear signal that the people of Scotland believe the Scottish Parliament is the place to decide the terms and timing of the referendum - and that these should not be imposed by Westminster.
"The responses from organisations already been made public show a lively debate around issues such as whether there should be a second question on the ballot paper.
"They also show support for votes for 16 and 17-year-olds. We set out our preferred question in the consultation document but have always said we would listen to the view expressed in the responses we received."
Analysis of the consultation, which ended in May, will be completed and published by the Government by the end of the summer.

Tropical paradise on the southern edge of Barbados
the vivid blue of the Caribbean Sea from the magnificent Café Luna restaurant.
Little Arches Boutique Hotel could be Barbados'
best-kept secret. A grown-up, offbeat retreat on the outskirts of
the fishing village, Oistins, set on the south coast, this 10-room,
hacienda-style hotel is a lesson in low-key luxury. The location is
hard to beat: it's tucked away next to Enterprise beach (Miami
beach to the locals), a hidden gem that ticks all the dream holiday
boxes. Yes to white-powder sand, calm aqua sea, very few tourists,
a chilled island vibe and utterly gorgeous Caribbean style.
Colourful gardens, shady pergolas and cobbled patios create a
serene setting, while beautiful murals by local artisans adorn the
salmon-pink walls. Lazy days may be spent draped in hammocks by the
pool - above which a chandelier is artfully suspended - or soaking
up the sun on a catamaran cruise, a fabulous way to see the
show-stopping coast. Come sundown it's all about Café Luna where a
feast of Caribbean, Asian and Mediterranean flavours is served on
an absurdly romantic rooftop terrace strewn with a handful of
tables overlooking the sea. Only in Barbados: Oistins' lively
Friday night "fish-fry" tradition of no-frills street food, rum and
heaps of fun

Agricultural production in many parts of the world is carried out on a small-scale by farmers with little income or natural resources making their lives vulnerable to unforeseen setbacks but farming methods can be improved without relying on large amounts of external financial assistance but relying more on farmers cooperating on activities that would not be possible by individuals working on their won and by appropriate financial arrangements such as micro financing.
Some of the options available to small-scale farmers are highlighted by the research carried out be Practical Action and by the many other organisations that have also researched small-scale agricultural practice and made their findings available.

The overreaching goal of our research is the development of versatile platforms of innovative vectors for cancer therapeutics, vaccine development and imaging reagents in nanomedicine. With the growing sophistication of polymerization strategies, the implementation of functionality and utilization of macromolecular architectures will be key for many of the promising applications in nanotechnology related to the biomedical field and materials science. Thereby structural and functional fidelity compatible for bioconjugation is a focus in the design of the polymer topology.
2.) A new Generation of Molecular Transporter. Considering the low efficiency of cellular transport, we investigate dendritic molecular transporter of unique design to allow the delivery of bioactive cargos specifically to the cytosol or nucleus without unwanted intracellular probe metabolism and transport.The systemic combination of nanovectors with preferred therapeutics, targeting moieties and vectors for cellular uptake provides the opportunity to obtain a large number of personalized therapeutic reagents. 3.) Towards organic 'quantum dots- Approaches to novel semiconducting Nanoparticles. In demand of imaging probes correlated with the efficacy of drug carriers, well-defined nanoparticles are developed for in vivo imaging and device technologies. They contain fluorescent core units and are decorated with lanthanides to provide powerful bimodal imaging reagents and will vitalize the investigation of electronic properties through site-isolation effects of electroactive entities in well-defined nanoobjects.
