Room A142, Peters Hall
I am currently an associate professor in the Elementary Education Department within the School of Teacher Education and Leadership. In addition to teaching a variety of methods courses, I also serve as the cohort leader for pre-service students in Roanoke, VA.
My journey to my current position actually began here at Radford College where I received my BS degree in Upper Elementary Education in August, 1978. After working for 23 as an elementary teacher and then six years as an Assistive Technology Coordinator, I completed my EDD in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Special Education and Technology in 2007 from Virginia Tech. This allowed me to fulfill a dream of coming back to Radford, now Radford University, to work with pre-service students.
My current research interests are focused in the areas of Universal Design for Learning, the integration of educational and adaptive technologies, and pre-service educators' dispositions.
I have never wanted to be anything other than a teacher. And, after 35 years in the education profession, teaching is still my passion.

Blaming Kings coach Keith Smart for DeMarcus Cousins' issues struck me as odd and a former head coach who
Blaming Kings coach Keith Smart for DeMarcus Cousins' issues struck me as odd and a former head coach who
has insight to the organization agreed. "Whoever is blaming Keith didn't do their homework," the former coach said. "DeMarcus couldn't have anyone better to work with him than Keith and Clifford (Ray). They put in the time." The suggestion made elsewhere is that a more accomplished coach would be more of an authority figure who would get Cousins to mature faster; it's an idea that is not only several generations outdated but has been disproved by one of the most accomplished coaches and prominent organizations in the league. First, most NBA head coaches simply have too many other responsibilities to devote a great deal of time to individual players, especially young ones; two, the coaches that are willing to devote that time are young ones like Smart who are more conscious of the fact that young players today are accustomed, from their AAU experience, of having a more direct relationship with the head coach. To put it another way: was Andrew Bynum any more mature because of Phil Jackson's presence? Did Phil make him mature faster? It certainly didn't appear that way. Questions *still* remain about Bynum's maturity. Jackson simply didn't play Bynum when he got too far out of line, and he could without it costing him games because he had other options. The willingness to do that is important, but it's hardly the only card a coach has to correctly play -- especially with players today who have not had to go through the earn-your-stripes development of 20-30 years ago. If the Kings are missing an important part of the equation in developing Cousins, it's having a veteran big or two who can show him what it takes to become an accomplished pro and pound him in practice to underscore the message. No offense to Chuck Hayes, but he's not quite at the level to do that -- and yet he might just be the closest thing Sacramento has.

Cooking in Jamaica, mon.
Rick my Michigan friend and brave soul, arrived on July 1st. I think he was ready to leave on July 2. The heat is ******* him and he likes warm weather! But we are coping. We have found a place down by the water that gets a good breeze most afternoons. The fans help a lot. I bought a new fan, super duper speed to keep ...

A couple of nights ago I had a cat event that has scared me for life.

different society.
But I CAN'T tolerate this ...
Day 4 2nd day on sea
Today was yet another Sea day! Our next excursion is Costa Maya Mexico ! Today was really nice because we got to do whatever we wanted for the morning then be a group In the afternoon. The morning started off as usual with the breakfast buffet, then me and some friends hit the pools and water slides until around 2:00,2:30 .At three all of us had to meet at the Epic theatre for setup and warm up for ...
Today's activity was a shopping trip into Ochas Rios about 25 minutes away. The tour takes you directly to a small duty free shopping centre with mostly duty free liquor and jewelry, the usual t-shirts and typical souvenirs found everywhere.. We were there two hours which was plenty of time for rum samples in almost every store if you wanted but most of the shopping was no different than what ...
The Good , the Bad , and the Ugly
... bottled water. He had a case sent to our room. But if you asked for bottled water at the buffet or restaurant you didn't get it - I always brought my own. They should be better about stocking the refrigerator with water and do the soda each day.
The Ugly:
1. The drunk, fat, hairy-backed 30-somethings sitting at the swim up bar all day long turned my stomach.
2. Then there was one poor worker whom had the worse teeth I've ever seen.
Not much Ugly at The Braco Village.

Harold Ramis dies
'Ghostbusters' star Harold Ramis has passed away aged 69 after suffering autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis for a number of years.
'Ghostbusters' star Harold Ramis has died aged 69.
The actor and director - best known for his role as Egon Spengler in the 1984 comedy, which he also wrote, with Dan Aykroyd - passed away in the early hours of this morning (24.02.14) after suffering autoimmune inflammatory vasculitis for a number of years.
Although he is best remembered on-screen for his roles in 'Ghostbusters' and its 1989 sequel, Harold had been a leading figure in comedy since the 70s, directing 'Caddyshack', 'Groundhog Day' and 'National Lampoon's Vacation'.
He also co-wrote the iconic 1978 film 'National Lampoon's Animal House', and later 1999s 'Analyse This' and 2002s 'Analyze That', starring Robert De Niro, which he also directed.
Harold continued to act in recent years, with parts in 'Knocked Up', 'Airheads' and Oscar-winner 'As Good As it Gets' and he had also directed episodes of the US version of 'The Office' for network NBC.
Harold had been a member of improvisation group Second City in his native Chicago, where he met John Belushi and Bill Murray, whom he would later go on to work closely with.
Harold said his work had been inspired by the Marx brothers and a job he briefly held working at a mental institution in Missouri.
He said: ''It prepared me for when I went out to Hollywood to work with actors. And not just with actors. It was good training for just living in the world.''
Harold is survived by his wife, Erica Mann Ramis, their two sons, Julian and Daniel as well as his daughter, Violet Ramis, with former spouse Anne Plotkin.

"I'm convinced that my son got into MIT because of his musical literacy. I started teaching him the basics of music as soon as he could walk. It's amazing how quickly a toddler can pick up tonal and rhythm patterns, the building blocks of music!" - Susan Fonger
The Musikgarten curriculum is designed to achieve keyboard and musical literacy.
Musikgarten offers a sequential path to musicality from birth through beginning piano. Students learn melody, rhythm and music dynamics through traditional, content-rich folk songs - singing, dancing, listening, and playing simple instruments. Research shows that music instruction, with its rhythm and tonal patterns, builds neural pathways in the brain which foster math skills and abstract cognitive abilities.

Tebow, the eighth Good Guy Award winner, is the fifth consecutive quarterback and first member of the Broncos to receive the honor from the PFWA.
The Good Guy Award is given to a NFL player for his qualities and professional style in helping pro football writers do their jobs. The award was first given by the PFWA in 2005.
Tebow, now a member of the New York Jets after a March trade, was cited by numerous national writers for how he handled the attention that came with his play on the field during the 2011 season for Denver. After a 1-4 start, the Broncos made Tebow the starting QB, and Denver won seven of the final 11 regular-season games – five by thrilling fourth-quarter comebacks – to capture the AFC West title. He threw for 1,729 yards and 12 touchdowns and rushed for 660 yards and six TDs during the regular season.
In the AFC Wild Card Game, his pass to wide receiver Demaryius Thomas on the first play from scrimmage in overtime resulted in an 80-yard catch-and-run for a touchdown and a 29-23 victory over the Steelers.
"I think Tim handled himself well all season long with the kind of attention few players are asked to contend with at any point in their careers," said PFWA Second Vice-President Jeff Legwold, who covered Tebow for the Denver Post. "Tim not only dealt with the traditional media obligations both locally and nationally, but he was also the focus of many non-traditional media outlets, both from in Denver and across the country. And while he didn't always let folks peer into his innermost thoughts, he did always conduct himself professionally, with a great deal of respect for both the process and the people who take part in it."
ABOUT THE PFWA: The Professional Football Writers of America (PFWA) is the official voice of pro football writers, promoting and fighting for access to NFL personnel to best serve the public. The PFWA is made up of accredited writers who cover the NFL and the 32 teams on a daily basis. The Buffalo News' Mark Gaughan, who covers the Buffalo Bills, is the organization's president for 2011-13. The Atlanta Journal Constitution's D. Orlando Ledbetter, who covers the Atlanta Falcons, is the first vice president for 2011-13. The Denver Post's Jeff Legwold, who covers the Denver Broncos, is the second vice president for 2011-13.
GOOD GUY AWARD WINNERS (To a NFL player for his qualities and professional style in helping the pro football writers do their job): 2005 – Jerome Bettis (Pittsburgh Steelers); 2006 – Tiki Barber (New York Giants); 2007 – LaDainian Tomlinson (San Diego Chargers); 2008 – Brett Favre (Green Bay Packers); 2009 – Kurt Warner (Arizona Cardinals); 2010 – Drew Brees (New Orleans Saints); 2011 – Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay Packers); 2012 – Tim Tebow (Denver Broncos).

Tim Tebow is a wonderful young man…he is so respectful and considerate. His parents raised him very well! It must have been very difficult for him to be traded so abruptly by a team that he thought wanted him. I'm sure he knows that God has his back…and even though he didn't see it coming, God knew all along what would happen. He's so BLESSED…no matter where he is and no matter what team he plays for. I wish him nothing but the best…all of his hard work, effort, and determintion will most certainly pay off. He WILL win a Superbowl championship someday….

Denver –my team–did not do right by Tebow. They could have kept him another year. He deserved it, he earned it. He never had a chance to practice in any camps with the Broncos, yet helped his team to a decent year and a one play overtime win over the Steelers in the playoffs, after sitting the bench for five games. He played under intense scrutiny and constant media attention he did not seek. I hope he has a chance to bite the Broncos in the butt in the near future. He could have helped the Broncs the same way the Jets plan to use him– a ball carrier and red zone player, and he would have learned a lot from Peyton, and played QB if Peyton got hurt. Just a damn shame Tim got the shaft from the Broncos. I've lost a lot of respect for Elway in his handling of Tebow from the start. Also think Peyton should have retired. What's the point in playing with the bad possibilities hanging over his (Peyton's) head? What price glory? What more does Peyton need or want? I feel we may be sorry to have let a player and man like Tebow mosey on over to New York.

I agree with Ray…..Denver….my team did not do right by Tebow. I too hope he comes to Denver and beats the Broncos……maybe in an AFC playoff game….I have lost so much respect for John Elway and how he handled this…but good for Tebow he makes the best of things wherever he goes…yes….I'm still a Bronco fan but it will take some time to get over this…..in the meantime go Tim!

I, too feel my team let Tebow and the fans down. I also hope he has a chance to bite the Broncos. I am still a Bronco fan, but it will take some time to get over this one. I, too have lost a lot of respect for John Elway. And anyone that knows me, knows how it hurts to make that last statement. He was my hero. Apparently he doesn't remember how he stunk up the field his first 2 seasons and no one traded him immediately to another team. I congratulate Tim Tebow on winning the Good Guy Award and wish him nothing but the best. I may be a Broncos, but I will never be a fan of Peyton Manning.

The New S & P – What a New Pope Can do for Sustainability
In one of my earliest blogs I lied and now I am confessing.
I lied when I wrote anything can be measured…. and that's why the next Pope needs to declare all Catholics, indeed all Christians, accept sustainability as a central and inalienable spiritual tenant.
More than Stewards
Pretty much everyone knows all major religions, in some way or another and to various degrees, support the notion of sustainability. But while one could argue sustainability is central to the teaching of almost all religions, one could equally argue that it is central in practice to none, and so, as much as we might hope sustainability is mainstream to major religions, it is not.
But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds of the air, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will
teach you, or let the fish of the sea inform you. Which of all these does not know that the hand of the LORD has done this?
In his hand is the life of every creature and the breath of all mankind.
Job 12:7-10
There is however a great and growing tradition of thoughtful support and action for sustainability in many religions, much of which focuses the conventional wisdom of responsible stewardship of our world's resources. This externalization of our responsibilities sets us apart and often above of the very ecosystems we are a part of and dependent upon for our very survival. Thankfully, the gods, in their wisdom, gave us brains to rationalize but did not estrange us from the forces that give us life… the very power of which we are only now learning as the leading edge of climate change comes crashing down upon us.
The utilization of natural resources (ni'matullah – the gifts of Allah) is a sacred trust invested in mankind;
he is a mere manager and not an owner, a beneficiary and not a disposer.
Dr. Iyad Abumoghli, Sustainable Development in Islam http://bit.ly/Yi7WrC
As much as we may like to think, we are not stewards of anything. Rather, we are an integral, albeit largely uncaring part of our ecosystems. And we tend to deny the "integratedness" of our existence even if ample spiritual doctrine and traditions tell different while exhorting us to live within the bounds of nature and express our gratitude to nature daily through meditation, prayer, the decisions and actions we take, at home, work, and in the communities we live in.
We are not above but With-In
One of the great challenges of this generation and this century is to bring this respect and care to the core of our spiritual practice, whatever it may be. Can there be a more powerful force for change?
Our spiritual leaders must lead this vision by declaring that a full spiritual life is defined as much by internal peace as it is by the respect we show to the connectedness we share with all living beings.
"If we could see the miracle of a single flower clearly, our whole life would change."
Buddhist saying
In business we know connectedness is quickly re shaping life and the economy, but it's not connectedness as in the typically ineffective corporate social media sense, but connectedness for a sense of purpose and belonging.
Brands that connect at this level are those that will dominate the sustainability century. Anything short of this and your company is likely to become nothing more than a supplier to real sustainability brands. Business leaders who get this and work to exploit the infinite, as of yet untapped depth of the personal values market will earn insurmountable competitive advantage.
We are the ones we have been waiting for.
The Elders, Oraibi, Arizona Hopi Nation
But its not just brands. Recent studies found over 30% of new professionals and 70% of all professionals want meaning in their work. Mitroff and Denton's seminal work on spirituality in the workplace discovered most top executives were hesitant to talk about spirituality, which they defined as the "basic desire to find purpose and meaning in one's life" even as employees were hungering to do so. Not surprisingly, where meaning in life was actuated in the workplace, companies tended to better than those that did not.
A more recent study by the consultancy McKinsey found "Senior executives routinely undermine creativity, productivity, and commitment by damaging the inner work lives of their employees" (http://bit.ly/zTIhI7) In The Whole New Mind, Daniel H. Pink argues convincingly that meaning is an emerging key competitive advantage.
And this is what I lied about. I am not sure how to measure meaning, particularly connectedness or the feeling of being part of a community, part of a pristine ecology, or to see peace flower from the wastes of war? I don't really know, but I do know that if you close your eyes a moment and reflect, you will feel the common threads of universal values pulling us toward a shared spirit of sustainability
With luck, the next Pope will tell us this is so, and measuring something so dear will become less necessary, making progress in the Sustainable Century just that much easier.

MELROSE PARK, Ill., Dec. 19 (UPI) — For those who have no support system, no friends, family, loved ones or even co-workers, the holidays can prove deadly, a U.S. emergency room physician says.
Dr. Mark DeSilva, medical director of the emergency department at Gottlieb Memorial Hospital, part of the Loyola University Health System, near Chicago, said the hospital emergency department sees an increase in visits from people who have engaged in potentially self-destructive or depressive behavior during the holidays.
"Everywhere, there are signs of gatherings, gift exchanges, happiness and love," DeSilva said. "If you are not experiencing what the rest of the world is enjoying, it is very bitter. The holidays bring out desperate behavior in unstable individuals and they frequently end up in the emergency department as a medical emergency."
People who vulnerable are:
— Isolated. Most people are busy, look for those who shun social interaction.
— Angry. The person expresses sarcasm, unhappiness or criticism of others' joy in the season and is consistently pessimistic.
— Using alcohol or drugs in excess. Often people overindulge to numb the pain and offer an escape from reality.
— Missing frequently from work/social activities. Facing others who are happy and bright is often too difficult.
— Excessive sleeping. Depression often takes the guise of extreme fatigue or tiredness.
"If you see signs of extreme behavior in a friend, family member or acquaintance, act immediately. Talk to them of the behavior you are seeing and offer help," DeSilva said. "There are social services, community groups, churches and other programs that can intervene."

Core Strength Exercises for Back and Abs
About two years ago now I had to take a couple of weeks off Aikido because of a major back blowout, and when it happened again about 6 months ago I decided to talk to some friends about exercises I could do to strengthen my core to help prevent this in the future. One friend of mine in particular is a personal trainer, and she suggested I do front and side planks. I'd also done some youtube searching in the meantime and came across several good hits that recommended exactly the same thing, as well as a yoga "bridge" exercise. Together they all made perfect since since the planks covered the front and two sides, and the bridge covered the back. Perfect!
Together I call the whole set a "sausage roll", because you roll around to cover all four sides. And because sausage is yummy and it just seemed like the right name. :-) I start with a front plank for 60 seconds, then side plank for 60, then yoga back bridge for 60, then other side plank for 60, and finally a 60 second break. I do three sets 3 times a week - but you should do as many sets as you can. If you can only do 1 set to start with, then do that. And if each set is a shorter period of time, then go for it that way.
When doing the front planks make sure your back is straight and your butt is not sticking way out. Also make sure you are not doing the opposite and dragging your pelvis on the ground. For the side planks also make sure you are not drooping down to the ground - but for these ones I actually find it beneficial to the muscles involved to be pushing up a bit. With front planks if you did that, you'd end up bending your back and putting yourself out of the correct position so that you would not be working the right muscles, but with side planks it is not possible to knock yourself out of the right position because your body just does not bend that way, so you end up working the right muscles even harder if you push up. So if you are having trouble with the side planks, don't push up.
Rather than use a clock for counting my 60 seconds, I find it far easier to just count one-mississippi, two-mississippi on up to 10, then stick up one finger on one hand. When I count the next 10 mississippis I stick up another finger. When I have 5 fingers up, that was 50 seconds, so after the next 10 count I take all the fingers down again and move on to the next exercise in the set.
Given the fantastic results I've seen with just 3 sets, 3 times a week, I would say there is no need to push it any further than this. Instead, if you have more than 15 minutes, do this and then find another simple exercise to do, like pushups. In fact, I've also been doing the one hundred pushups thing, and can highly recommend it.

More than 6,000 Gallons of the Purest Maple Syrup on Earth in the BarrelSubmitted by Robb on April 5, 2011 - 8:47am
We've just filled our 106th barrel, which means we've processed more than 6,000 gallons of the purest maple syrup on earth! We're on our way to meeting our goal of 7,000 gallons for our first season.
Heading into the final quarter of the season, I'm happy to report we've just had a cold snap. That's good news because cool temperatures, followed by warmer weather, keeps the sap flowing. For example, last week we collected 11,000 gallons of sap in one day. We've got at least a week left of good weather and we may even be collecting sap at least through this first week of April.
Lately the sap has been staying fairly stable at about 1 Brix. (Brix is a measurement of the fraction of sugar per hundred parts aqueous solution.) When the sap comes in, it runs through two reverse osmosis (RO) units. The first unit increases the concentrate to about 10 ½ - 11 Brix; after it's gone through the second RO unit, we're getting about 21 to 22 Brix. And we're turning the sap we're getting into mostly medium amber syrup, although we have also processed 3 dark amber barrels.
I'm off to check on the activities of the day...
From the Farm provides updates on how the Crown Maple team is turning sap from the some of the most regal maple trees into quite possibly the purest maple syrup on earth. The Crown Maple team shares their insight into maple sugaring, the latest maple syrup production techniques, life in the sugarbush, conserving the land and sustainable forestry. Interested in more?

Rookie Lee Sweatt, playing his first NHL game, scored the game winning goal in the third period to give the Vancouver Canucks a 2-1 come from behind victory over the Nashville Predators.
All the scoring took place in the final period after two periods of defensive scoreless hockey. Shea Weber scored first for the Preds and Alexander Burrows tied the game before Sweatt gave the Canucks the victory on his first NHL goal.
It was a classic match between two of the best goalies in the Western Conference for two periods with neither team able to score. Roberto Luongo got the win stopping 26 of 27 shots, while his counterpart, Pekka Rinne made 33 saves in the losing effort.
Vancouver improved their home record to 17-3-5 while Luongo extended his point streak to 17 games going 12-0-5 since December 5th. The Canucks are now tied with Philadelphia with 71 points for the best record in the league. The Predators finished their road trip 3-3 and remain in fourth place in the Western Conference with 60 points.
The first period was very competitive with both team's aggressive defense creating penalties accounting for half of the period involving special team play. The Canucks were whistled for three infractions while the Preds took two.
The Predators had a couple of excellent scoring chances late in the period but could not convert. They outshot the Canucks, 12-4, in the first 20 minutes.
The second period was more of the same intense end to end action but the tide appeared to be turning in the Canucks' favor. Vancouver picked up a pair of penalties while the Preds only had one, but the Canucks had several scoring chances on their man advantage.
The Canucks were more wide open in the second, outshooting the Preds, 14-8.
The final period was an offensive explosion compared to the first two. Weber scored his ninth goal of the season to give the Preds a 1-0 lead at 37 seconds on a second chance goal from the slot after Luongo went down and opened up the top of the net.
Burrows came back to tie the game 1-1 at 10:39 on a rebound shot in the crease after defensive confusion in front of the net. The go ahead goal came from Sweatt at 12:31 after Joel Ward fell at the blue line and Daniel Sedin recovered the puck and sent it to Sweatt who had an open shot on Rinne from the right circle.
The Predators charter returned to Nashville on a red-eye flight immediately after the game. Weber headed to Raleigh for the All-Star game while the rest of the team had other plans before reconvening in Nashville on Monday for an afternoon practice on Monday. Nashville's next game is at the Bridgestone Arena against the Calgary Flames on Tuesday at 7 p.m.

|Cardinals Carpenter throws to hitters in rehab
|Written by Admin
|Tuesday, 01 May 2007 15:17
Carpenter said he felt fine after the workout. He will be re-evaluated on Wednesday.
``We'll see what happens tomorrow,'' Carpenter said of his outing that lasted about 60 pitches over three simulated innings. ``If everything's perfect tomorrow, we'll go from there.''
Manager Tony La Russa said they won't plan for Carpenter's next step until they check him out on Wednesday, but La Russa was encouraged when he watched Carpenter's performance.
``Impressive,'' La Russa said. ``That was an extensive workout today.''
Carpenter, a 15-game winner last year, went on the disabled list on April 10 because he had swelling in his right elbow a day after giving up five runs in the opener. Carpenter said he wasn't worried about building stamina in his most recent performance.
``I was just being competitive,'' Carpenter said.
Skip Schumaker was one of the batters that Carpenter faced and said Carpenter was focused, even if Schumaker thought he had a little bit of help inside Miller Park.
``He's tough to hit anyway, (but) without the lights, it's really tough,'' he said.
