Bones voiced by Jeff Bennett. When singing, Kevin Hendrikson performs in Bennett's place. He is a member of Captain Hook's crew.
Role in the Series
Bones is best friends with his crew mate Sharky aboard the Jolly Roger. They often play music together. Bones is friends with Jake and his crew as well. Bones has been on many adventures with Sharky and Mr. Smee as well as Captain Hook.
Sharky and Bones also appear as real people and sing songs. They sing at the end of every episode. Bones usually plays a Mandolin when he plays music. At the end of each episode, Sharky and Bones appear as real people, Kevin Hendrikson and Loren Hokins, respectively.
Around the first few episodes, Sharky and Bones provided musical numbers and never actually took part in the main plot. Later on they began joining Hook and Smee in their schemes involving Jake and the others. Unlike Smee however, Sharky and Bones take pride in their work as villainous pirates and show to have a great fear of Captain Hook. At the end of every set of episodes, the two in their live-action forms, perform an original song often based on one of the two episodes.
The first episode to solely revolve around the duo was "Peter's Musical Pipes". Here, for failing to complete their chores, Captain Hook forces the duo to walk the plank (which means being fired in a pirate's life). After their discharge, Sharky and Bones help Jake's crew who are coincidentally searching for treasure that requires musical talents and the use of Peter Pan's pipes, which they already have in their possessions, in order to be found. Hook spots Sharky and Bones working with the pirates and follows them to the treasure of Peter Pan's pipes. Hook steals the pipes but doesn't know how to play, preventing him from revealing the treasure. Sharky volunteers to play it if Hook hires him and Bones and promises never to have them walk the plank again. Hook agrees. The treasure is revealed and the pipes are returned to Jake by Bones. Hook still decides to steal the pipes but Jake and his crew escapes. Hook forgets the situation and makes way for the Jolly Roger. There, he orders Sharky and Bones to complete their work and play some music which they gladly do.
Another episode to do is "Captain Hook's Hooks". In this story, Sharky and Bones accidentally dirty some of Hook's hooks in his cabinet. The duo are ordered to clean them but the hooks are stolen by The Octopus who wants to play with them. Knowing they'll have to walk the plank if the captain finds out, Sharky and Bones travel to Never Land and teams up with the Never Land Pirates to retrieve the eight stolen hooks. They are retrieved and the hooks are restored. However, in the mix of getting them back, the hooks are filthily again, even more. They are forced to walk the plank but are caught by the Octopus down below who bounces them on his tentacles for fun. Smee joins in the fun with Hook deciding to forgive them and join in, too.
In the episode "Big Bug Valley!" Bones was the main focus of the episode showed another side of Bones character besides his skills as musician he had a fondness for animals and wanted to explore the wonders of Big Bug Valley and find the legendary Golden Caterpillar.The episode also feature Bone's pet spider Harry.
Bones was once again the main focus in the episode "Pirate Swap!" He and Cubby were the lucky candidates for Pirate Swap Day Bones became a part of Jake's crew for the day and Cubby apart of Hook's they would later return to their proper crew once the day was over after learning a whole new experiences on how the pirate crew live.
Bones was once again the main focus along with Cubby in the episode"Sand Pirate Cubby!" Bones auditioned to become one of Captain Flynn's sand pirates for the day by enduring various trials of the Never Land Desert.Captain Hook became furious that a member of his crew would ever join Flynn's crew.
Another episode to focus on Sharky and Bones is "Song of the Desert" Captain Hook over hears Captain Flynn singing while sailing threw the sands of the Never Land Desert when he came up the scheme to use Sharky and Bones to lure Captain Flynn away from the Pirate Pyramid allowing him and Smee to raid the pyramid to find Captain Flynn's treasure the Golden Scarab.
Bones was once again the main focus in the episode "Bones' Lucky Doubloon!" Bones is determined to find the lost treasure Queen Hipporlita and ask the help of Jake and his crew in the search with luck of his grandfather gold doubloon "Bloony" guide them in their journey.
- Sharky is Bones' best friend. They are extremely close, and Bones loves Sharky like a brother.
- Mr. Smee is another close friend of Bones. As first mate, Smee outranks Bones, but they still care about each other very much.
- Captain Hook is hard on Bones, but Bones still cares deeply for his beloved captain.
Theme Park Character
The Bones and Sharky have made promotional appearances for the show, including appearances at Disney's Hollywood Studios and the biannual D23 Expo in Anaheim.
Sharky and Bones also attended the 20th Annual Festival of Lights Parade in Chicago.
Puppet versions of their animated selves can be seen in Disney Junior Live at Disney's Hollywood Studios and Disney California Adventure.
- In the episode "Pirate Swap!" Bones collected two gold doubloons, making him the first and only member of Hook's crew who has interacted with the gold doubloons so far.
- Bones is proficient in many instruments, including his mandolin and drums.
- Bones has a vast knowledge of animals which was introduced in "Big Bug Valley!", "Pirate Swap!" and Follow the Bouncing Bumble!

A little about me...
Caring for and about people, being a good listener, being present in the moment, sharing laughter, growing spiritually are all part of who I am. I am always trying to discover new things about myself and others. I have a part time job doing something I truly love and working with children. I love Hawaii and have lived here over 20 yrs. I have been a widow for over 8 yrs. I am quite independent and OK with being alone, but I do enjoy the company of others and miss the close companionship. I am not real active (only exercise 1-2X/week) but I am willing to become more active with the right motivation.
About the one I'm looking for...
outgoing, kind, caring, relaxed with a sense of humor

My lunch started out like any other. Overcooked hamburger, undercooked fries. Then, suddenly, the unthinkable happened: my debit card was DENIED. "Oh, really? Try this one, I guess," I stammered as I handed the waitress another piece of plastic. She tried to console me, "Don't worry. It happens all the time." My heart raced. Sweat droplets lined my brow. As my friends and coworkers readied themselves to leave, I awaited my fate. She returned, receipt in hand. I hastily scribbled my illegible signature and left a hefty tip. Partly because I was too flustered to do the mental aerobics. Partly as if to say "please forget this ever happened."
When I got back to my desk, I logged on to my bank account. As meager as my balance was, it was still in the black. Hell, I could have covered upwards of a few dozen overcooked burgers. "Must have just been the system," I told myself. F*cking computers.
On my way home, I stopped to get gas. Insert card. Remove quickly. "Please See Attendant." Sh*t. Insert card. Remove quickly-er. "Please See Attendant." F*CK ME!
The next day I called my bank and after pressing "1" more times than I can remember, I was told a hold was put on my account by the fraud department. There, I learned that at 7:13 AM on the previous Wednesday, my card was used to make three consecutive $52.79 transactions from First Media 13, a company I had never heard of out of New York. He gave me the company's phone number and told me to call back when I got things figured out.
Now, at 7:13 AM on the Wednesday morning in question, I was in the process of wrapping up an all-nighter for a project at work. Did I manage to botch some online purchase in a Folgers-induced haze? A quick Google search yielded no meaningful results, so I called the company. Apparently, they process credit card transactions for, among other things, chat lines. You know, the late night "Call to talk to sexy local singles" ads. Ever hear of Quest? Some guy called using my debit card number, but used the wrong billing address/zip.
Long story short, the charges were nullified and my card was canceled and reissued. Now if you are anything like me, you know how painful it is to go without your debit card for a week. My pain and suffering alone is worth any form of punishment imaginable for this asshole. This is where you guys come in.
The people at First Media gave me the guy's phone number and played a recording of his voice so I called him. He answered. I hung up. I am a pussy. Reverse phonebook didn't turn anything up, so I don't know his name, and I don't know how he got my card number. All I know is I hate him. Then I came up with this brilliant plan: post his number online and let you do the rest. So, here it is. Call it early and often. I implore you to make this dirty sonofabitch pay.
Thanks guys. You're the greatest!

Correlation for AP Statistics (page 2)
Practice problems for these concepts can be found at:
- Two-Variable Data Analysis Multiple Choice Practice Problems for AP Statistics
- Two-Variable Data Analysis Free Response Practice Problems for AP Statistics
- Two-Variable Data Analysis Review Problems for AP Statistics
- Two-Variable Data Analysis Rapid Review for AP Statistics
In this lesson, we want to do some numerical analysis of the data in an attempt to understand the relationship between the variables better.
In AP Statistics, we are primarily interested in determining the extent to which two variables are linearly associated. Two variables are linearly related to the extent that their relationship can be modeled by a line. Sometimes, and we will look at this more closely later in this chapter, variables may not be linearly related but can be transformed in such a way that the transformed data are linear. Sometimes the data are related but not linearly (e.g., the height of a thrown ball, t seconds after it is thrown, is a quadratic function of the number of seconds elapsed since it was released).
The first statistic we have to determine a linear relationship is the Pearson product moment correlation, or more simply, the correlation coefficient, denoted by the letter r. The correlation coefficient is a measure of the strength of the linear relationship between two variables as well as an indicator of the direction of the linear relationship (whether the variables are positively or negatively associated).
If we have a sample of size n of paired data, say (x,y), and assuming that we have computed summary statistics for x and y (means and standard deviations), the correlation coefficient r is defined as follows:
Because the terms after the summation symbol are nothing more than the z-scores of the individual x and y values, an easy way to remember this definition is:
Example: Earlier in the section, we saw some data for hours studied and the corresponding scores on an exam. It can be shown that, for these data, r = 0.864. This indicates a strong positive linear relationship between hours studied and exam score. That is, the more hours studied, the higher the exam score.
The correlation coefficient r has a number of properties you should be familiar with:
- –1 ≤ r ≤ 1. If r = –1 or r = 1, the points all lie on a line.
- Although there are no hard and fast rules about how strong a correlation is based on its numerical value, the following guidelines might help you categorize r:
Remember that these are only very rough guidelines. A value of r = 0.2 might well indicate a significant linear relationship (that is, it's unlikely to have gotten 0.2 unless there really was a linear relationship), and an r of 0.8 might be reflective of a single influential point rather than an actual linear relationship between the variables.
- If r > 0, it indicates that the variables are positively associated. If r < 0, it indicates that the variables are negatively associated.
- If r = 0, it indicates that there is no linear association that would allow us to predict y from x. It does not mean that there is no relationship—just not a linear one.
- It does not matter which variable you call x and which variable you call y. r will be the same. In other words, r depends only on the paired points, not the ordered pairs.
- r does not depend on the units of measurement. In the previous example, convert "hours studied" to "minutes studied" and r would still equal 0.864.
- r is not resistant to extreme values because it is based on the mean. A single extreme value can have a powerful impact on r and may cause us to overinterpret the relationship. You must look at the scatterplot of the data as well as r.
Example: To illustrate that r is not resistant, consider the following two graphs. The graph on the left, with 12 points, has a marked negative linear association between x and y. The graph on the right has the same basic visual pattern but, as you can see, the addition of the one outlier has a dramatic effect on r—making what is generally a negative association between two variables appear to have a moderate, positive association.
Example: The following computer output, again for the hours studied versus exam score data, indicates R-sq, which is the square of r. Accordingly, r = = 0.864. There is a lot of other stuff in the box that doesn't concern us just yet. We will learn about other important parts of the output as we proceed through the rest of this book. Note that we cannot determine the sign of r from R-sq. We need additional information.
("R-sq" is called the "coefficient of determination" and has a lot of meaning in its own right in regression. It is difficult to show that R-sq is actually the square of r. We will consider the coefficient of determination later in this chapter.)
Correlation and Causation
Two variables, x and y, may have a strong correlation, but you need to take care not to interpret that as causation. That is, just because two things seems to go together does not mean that one caused the other—some third variable may be influencing them both. Seeing a fire truck at almost every fire doesn't mean that fire trucks cause fires.
Example: Consider the following dataset that shows the increase in the number of Methodist ministers and the increase in the amount of imported Cuban rum from 1860 to 1940.
For these data, it turns out that r = .999986.
Is the increase in number of ministers responsible for the increase in imported rum? Some cynics might want to believe so, but the real reason is that the population was increasing from 1860 to 1940, so the area needed more ministers, and more people drank more rum.
In this example, there was a lurking variable, increasing population—one we didn't consider when we did the correlation—that caused both of these variables to change the way they did. We will look more at lurking variables in the next chapter, but in the meantime remember, always remember, that correlation is not causation.

Sui Generis Wiki
The most comprehensive source of Sui Generis information with 23 articles and articles written by 9 users.
About Sui Generis:
Sui Generis is an open-world fantasy RPG in development by Bare Mettle Entertainment. The game was kick-started on November 30th 2012 after already being in development for a year. The game is set for a release in May of 2014 with alpha and beta releases to be made available to people who backed the required amount.
The game's main features are a hugely interactive and dynamic world in which the story is driven by the AI of character's in the world. The game will not focus on the player or wait for the player to involve themselves in the story and will instead proceed with events as they would unfold without intervention. The game is built on a very impressive engine, developed by Madoc Evans, which boasts accurate collisions and physics as well as dynamic lighting and shadows and unique procedural animations which feature heavily in the combat of the game.
The game will be restricted to single player and LAN upon release but multiplayer is an intended feature. However, due to the highly physics driven nature of the game, multiplayer may be impratcial with current technology. The game will release on Windows, with Mac and Linux as intended platforms.
The game currently has a growing community on it's forums which also allows for a dialogue between the developers and the community. From the website, you will be able to contribute to development and find several videos demonstrating the game in it's pre-alpha state.
Game Mechanics:
Skills - Information on how skills affect character advancement.
Thaumaturgy - Information on the use of thaumaturgy and how it affects character advancement.
Death - Information on the importance of death to the character and to thaumaturges.
Maps - Information on the player's map and how maps in general function.
Game World and Lore:
Little is known about the World and Lore and it will likely remain that way until the alpha version of the game is released. These pages are here mainly as place holders and to give a general idea as to the future structure of the wiki.
Characters - Information on the various characters in the world.
Creatures - Information on the various other species which inhabit the world.
World - Information on the world's geography and locations.
History - Information on the history of the world and the events preceding the game.

Georgia has won 20 games, but only a couple of the victories — against Kentucky in January, at Tennessee last month — are worth recalling. Such has been the Bulldogs' season: For all the good work done, there's not much we could deem outstanding.
But the season, as of Thursday at 1 p.m., changes. Georgia needs to win at least twice in the SEC tournament to prettify its NCAA tournament profile, and this team is capable of winning twice that many games this week. This team, put simply, is better than it has played.
Said Dustin Ware, the junior guard: "We definitely feel that, as a team, we still have our best basketball in front of us."
Said Chris Barnes, the backup big man: "We've had a lot of close losses."
Only one of the Bulldogs' 10 losses has been by more than 10 points, and that was by Florida in double overtime in a game Georgia led by three points with one second remaining in the first OT. It also lost in double overtime to Notre Dame, which finished second in the Big East, after leading by a point inside the final five seconds. And also on a last-second putback by Tennessee's Brian Williams, who outfought Barnes for a rebound. (Georgia fans insist Williams fouled.)
Has so many near-misses made for a frustrating season? Said Ware: "That's college basketball." Then: "In a tournament format, anything can happen."
Beat Auburn on Thursday and Georgia will play Alabama on Friday, and it's possible if not probable that the Georgia-Alabama loser will land in the no-account NIT. But the Bulldogs should handle Bama, to which they lost in Tuscaloosa on Saturday, on a neutral floor. And then Georgia could cease fretting about the next tournament and focus on winning this one.
Which has, as we know, happened before. After his team's practice Wednesday, Barnes was moved to recall his last Dome experience — the night in March 2008 that a tornado hit downtown and ripped the fiberglass roof and rerouted the tournament to Georgia Tech, where the Bulldogs, seeded last in the East, won the event and saved Dennis Felton's job (for 10 months).
"For me and [fellow senior Jeremy Price], that was the first thing that came to mind," Barnes said. "We were out in the tunnel, waiting to play [Kentucky]. I remember hearing the roar and the scoreboard swaying. It was a crazy day, a crazy night."
And then Georgia, which had won four SEC games all season, won two at Tech the next day and another on Sunday. Barnes again: "It was something out of a movie. After we won, I said, 'Somebody should make a movie out of this.' "
The 2008 SEC championship was among the most improbable stories in the history of college hoops. A 2011 SEC championship wouldn't be nearly as dramatic, but it would be wholly satisfying to a program that has reached the NCAA tournament only once since 2002. Over the past 12 years Georgia has suffered the ineptitude of Ron Jirsa and the investigation of the Jim Harricks Sr. and Jr. and the intransigence of Felton, and happier days are finally here again.
Hired from Nevada in March 2009, Mark Fox has proved to be a fine coach, and these are the most talented Bulldogs since the Jarvis Hayes/Rashad Wright band of 2003. That star-crossed entity stands among the sport's Great Lost Aggregations. Those Bulldogs would have entered the SEC tournament 19-8 and figured to be no worse than a No. 4 NCAA seed, but the school removed the team from postseason 10 days after Tony Cole made his allegations on ESPN.
This team doesn't have quite the potential that one did, but it's close. And if Georgia does reach the NCAA tournament, it could hang around. Last month Fox said, "There's no question we've let a win or two get away." It's time for his team to get grabby. It's time for us to see the Bulldogs' as-yet-unplayed "best basketball."

I just don't get Lunardi over at ESPN. He told himself back during late January-Early February that the Alabama-Georgia game at the end of the year is a play-in game. Now they most likely both get another chance to play again. Stupid theory if you ask me. Doesn't that Zero Bad Losses thing mean something?

The Zero Bad Losses does mean something Ryno. It boosts their RPI and puts them on the bubble. If they had lost to Auburn or Arkansas then they probably would need a really deep run in the tournament. The overall strength of the SEC is what is really hurting UGA right now.

Okay duhhhawgeees…..we @ Tech need you to make a strong run, thus furthering OUR cause that Pewey must go. The finals of the SEC wd be nice, as it adds to our point of needing a change just to catch up with you in OUR acclaimed sport…..Go Jackets, and (holding my nose at this point) Go Dawgs!!!!!! uuggh I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Fox has done a great job in getting the program to where it now is but it seems they need that one "gut check" time where they actually win a game to get the over the hump, so to speak.

This has been the Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda season the Dawgs. I hope that they can final play a complete game against good competetion and not fold at the end as they have done so many times this year.

If UGA is gonna make a post season run they are gonna have to correct three things.
1. Dustin Ware has to get more touches on offense because he has been the best three point shooter all season. 2. They need to play better team defense, because nobody helps out when shooter comes down the lane or try to take a charge. The lane parts open like the red sea. 3. Gerald Robinson has to play under control and quit trying to force something thats not there.Lately he has become a turnover machine waiting to happen.
March 9th, 2011
3:42 pm
We need these guys to stop talking about their best game and instead to go out and do it.
March 9th, 2011
3:43 pm
Bradley comes through with yet another ingenious observation about one of our teams. Did he just now realize UGA hasn't played up to its potential? Was he unaware of the near defeat at Mercer back on December 23rd? Unaware of numerous other pathetic showings against other teams, such as needing OT just to beat Auburn at home? One of the worst teams in the country? Unaware of the constant excuses for why Thompkins hasn't shown up this year?
We will not get past the second round in the SEC tourney, assuming we beat Auburn and I doubt we will. Write it down. NIT. Check our long history in that tourney. A rare 1st round win sometimes, then out on our faces. Not that it matters.
So, what can we conclude from all of this? Talk is cheap and empty, as keeps getting shown with ALL Atlanta and UGA sports, year after year, save gymnastics at GA. Gymnastics! The talk now at UGA in football is the new nutrition program. Are you kidding me? THAT'S the reason we collapse in the 4th quarter? McDonald's? BS. I'm so tired of the talk and the excuses. Go win the dang games and then talk about this stuff. Is Tofu going to lead us over Florida next fall? Of course not. But some already seem prepared to say it will be the difference. Incredible.

I'm baffled at the folks who don't think Fox has done a great job with this team. Our talent it not near what UK/UF/Vandy/UT is in the East, yet, he is right there with them.

Agree w/ fresh d- Robinson must play under control, but Trey MUST show up big for SEC tourney.
Hurting at this time of season is par for course-show you're bulldog toughness and SUCK IT UP!!!!!!
Will be watching from a memorial for life time dog fan-we will pull this one out and gain great deal of confidence heading in to Bama game.

Can you say one and done? Auburn in an upset sends UGA to NIT
March 9th, 2011

I think looking back at the end of last season, we would have hoped for 18 to 20 wins and considered it a big step forward. So I think UGA has met or exceded expectation form a W standpoint. What is really bitter sweet is the fact that we had some good chances to end the season at 22-23 W's. Sweet that Fox had us in position to have a chance so ofter but bitter that those ended in losses. No big disappointment but feel if the DAWGS will really focus, they can go a ways in the post season. They do need to get through or do away with those slow 6-8 minute spurts and take it to the hole when inside. Seem to miss more than our share of 4-8 footers.

"Talk is cheap and empty, as keeps getting shown with ALL Atlanta and UGA sports, year after year, save gymnastics at Georgia." That word ALL is key to what I am about to say. If you, Phil, are a UGA fan, and I assume you are by using "we" in your post, I have some good news for you.
130+ SEC championships, 30+ national titles in 8 different sports. We are not a one trick pony when it comes to winning championships.

I seem to recall you wrote a similar column about GT this time last year before the ACC tourney – and you were correct with that one, as GT had a nice run. Maybe this is your 1x a year where you are correct.

Mark, why don't you get to the point here?
You predicted the Dawgs would contend to win the SEC and it was a really bad prediction at the time (but not surprising as both Jeff and you have been hyping UGA hoops all year). So now we are getting a CYA article from you saying we haven't see their best. Oh and thanks for the note on close losses, reminds me of Coach Richt's recent comments/qualifications.

I think the Dawgs win against Auburn. I still want to see a BIG game from the TEAM as a whole. They will need to rest, come out HARD against Bama, and really make a second statement in a row to make the Tourney. Good Luck Dawgs. I just hope Tech can play in the NIT after firing Hewitt.

I am well aware of the numerous SEC titles and national championships, mostly in tennis and gymnastics and a few other sports that few of us care about. I'm proud of them all, yes, but I don't see many being posted in football or basketball….that's my main point. Tennis doesn't pay to keep the lights on at Sanford Stadium during our now routine losses.
March 9th, 2011

The Dawgs are capable of winning it all or going back to Athens tomorrow. Need to be aggressive in the paint and limit the turnovers. They do those 2 things and they can beat anyone.
Best of luck!

This is a good basketball team, but they are not a great team because they don't have a go to guy in the clutch. Great teams don't lose that many close games… a lot of basketball games are close and we seem to struggle down the stretch against better competition.
Kudos to this team and Coach Fox though… they won the games they were supposed to win and 20 wins is quite a turn around from 3 years ago. I just hope we can continue to bring in enough talent were 20 win seasons like this are the norm and that we have the potential for another sweet 16 runs in the near future.

I'm with beast…if we lose tomorrow I wouldn't be shocked…pisssed..but not shocked…I think we make it to the semi's and lose to UK on Sat…which would be great let Thompkins get some rest…if we win the SEC tournament we're a 7 seed…if we beat Bama & Auburn we're a 10 seed…who cares..!!! we just need to get in..Let the Big Blue fans spend a bunch of $$$ for 3 days in Atlanta…

Phil- You have got to be kidding me. You win the award for most ridiculous blog statement EVER. The University of Georgia is one, if not the, top sports univeristy in the nation. Yes, we win constant national championships with our tennis, golf, and gymnastics programs, they are year in and year out dominating opponents, and consistently in the top 10, top 5, and most often National Champs (and this is a bad thing?). I guess the point you were trying to make in between time from your unemployed, apathetic couch-surfing life is that our football and basketball programs arent winning national championships and SEC championships every single year. Well Georgia has 5 claims to National Championships in football (1927, 1942, 1946, 1968, 1980), and really should have won in 82 as well, and should have gotten the chance in 2007, as we were #4 the final week, when the #3 and #2 teams both lost, and we still get left out somehow. Anyways, the NC is a popularity contest no different than Miss America or your high school prom king contests, just with football. They can only control what they can, thats why I look to SEC titles to gauge a football program rather than NC's, and Georgia has 12 SEC titles, the most recent in 2002 and 2005. We havent been much of a national powerhouse in college basketball, other than our lone final 4 trip in 83, but is that your point- to find one chink in UGA;s athletic armor and harp on it? Needless to say our college basketball future looks very bright with Fox, so go ahead and nit pick with our 20 win season…you are pathetic and probably a loser in life…. NO TEAM CAN WIN THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP EVERY YEAR!!! You also make fun of ATL sports, and must have conveniently forgotten the Braves 5 National League Pennants, and 1 World Series Pennants in the 90s, and that should have been at least 2 Pennants, as we had golden opportunitys in both 91 and 96, so I am a Proud sports fan of the winning traditions of UGA and Atl sports, you are a pathetic loser….that is the difference…

ASAT Responds to Cape Cod Institute Summer 2012 Program
Thursday, February 02, 2012
Dear Dr. Levin,
We recently received your brochure for the 33rd annual Cape Cod Institute. We are familiar with the Institute and its longstanding reputation of providing training for new and established psychologists every year. As professionals in the field of autism treatment, we always look with great interest at your training offerings. This year, we saw that you have billed Dr. Karen Levine to speak on the "State-of-the-Art Humanistic Diagnosis and Treatment" of autism spectrum disorders.
Upon closer inspection of the topics covered in the week-long training, we took exception to the use of "evidence based comprehensive treatments" to describe all of the following treatment approaches for individuals with autism: Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), DIR/Floortime, Early Start Denver Model (ESDM), RDI, and SCERTS. Of these approaches, only ABA has extensive scientific evidence to qualify it as "evidence-based" (Beaulieu, Tweed, & Connolly, 2009). The National Standards Project, a comprehensive report and analysis published by the National Autism Center, found some evidence of effectiveness for developmental relationship-based treatment (which includes DIR/Floortime, ESDM, and RDI), but not enough for the National Autism Center to be confident that they are truly effective treatments. The findings of the report are further tempered by the fact that seemingly disparate treatments, such as RDI and Floortime, were lumped together with a combined literature base of only seven empirical articles (Wilczynski et al., 2009).
Separately, DIR/Floortime, RDI, and SCERTS have negligible research support as stand-alone treatments. Only a handful of studies have examined the effects of treatment (e.g., Gutstein, Burgess, & Montfort, 2007; Solomon, Necheles, Ferch, & Bruckman, 2007), and these studies are fraught with research design problems, such as a lack of a control group that both confound the studies and weaken the results. ESDM is supported by one well-designed study (Dawson et al., 2010) demonstrating its effectiveness for children with autism, but requires additional research to be considered evidence-based. We look forward to seeing more research investigating these interventions.
We appreciate your efforts to train psychologists and other professionals in the most up-to-date treatment approaches available. However, your organization presents trainings on a large scale, and care should be taken to not misrepresent the approaches in which professionals are trained. The Association for Science in Autism Treatment works tirelessly to teach families and professionals how to carefully evaluate the myriad treatments for individuals with autism to identify those that are evidence-based. Though non-evidence-based treatments may not harm an individual with autism, they should be implemented with caution as they may be ineffective and could potentially replace other evidence-based, effective treatments. By misrepresenting untested and under-researched treatments as "evidence-based" you may unintentionally contribute to the problematic overuse of un-established treatment approaches. In the future, we hope that you appreciate the influence you have on the acceptance of treatments for individuals with autism, and label evidence-based and non-evidence-based treatments with greater care.

Does formal education play a significant role in the success of entrepreneurs and the outcomes of their business activities?
The foreground of such debate is perhaps seen in this debate: Are leaders born or made? With multiple TED (and Tedx) talks discussing entrepreneurship, I was curious what the community thought about the role that education plays in the success of the entrepreneur. (*please don't just say, it depends.)
Closing Statement from Brant Scheifler
Thanks all for your thoughts and comments. It's clear that most commentators don't view education as being vital to the success of the entrepreneur. In fact, many feel it can be a hindrance. With that said, many pointed out that education is what you make of it and that it can be utilized as a tool, even if that tool is context/perspective. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!

Lisi HoffMar 11 2012: Education tends to stifle young minds. Maybe one reason has to do with the fact that most children, many teenagers and adults retain learning best from hands on experience. Possibly related to why many entrepreneurs leave school "unfinished".
Mentorship has been a proven method of teaching. We even used to have apprenticeships.
I think that expertise in any field is often more a result of self-study than formal education which too often dogmatize studies, producing "experts" in extremely narrow fields who more often than not, submit to peer-pressure. Because of the limiting environment in many fields, many truly creative people/entrepreneurs may simply be bored; And/or know that "rocking the boat" will most likely harm their careers. They may also not be learning what they think or know they need to know and learn
We are not often rewarded for creative thinking and boredom is a powerful destroyer of loving to learn.
After all how much of the theories we studied in college do we still remember? And how much of what was "facts" then have changed. New theories, new "facts". Are people then not better off testing their skills and pushing their abilities on their own or hopefully with a mentor.?
Bryann, above, says it quite succinctly :)
In short my answer is Yes :)
Mar 12 2012: Per your comment above:
@Lisi, While I admire the list you put forth and don't for a minute argue that these people didn't succeed in spite of opposition I would also suggest that perhaps they succeeded *because* of opposition. Sometimes in life obstacles are what make us great, wouldn't you agree?
Can you imagine Abe Lincoln having the degree of empathy he had for the common man had he not been born a poor child of uneducated farmers? There is no doubt that genetics play a part in any persons path in life. Had Lincoln been born developmentally "challenged" there is no way he rises to the levels he did. But to suggest that he was "born" to be a leader is to suggest that Lincoln didn't take great pains to study (of his own accord) philosophy, history etc. What gave Lincoln, MLK, Newton the impetus to study and learn to the degree they did? I'd wager it wasn't genetics but other people. Undoubtedly, there were people in there lives that instilled in them a thirst for knowledge and awareness. This thirst is planted by other (previously) thirsty people. Are some "born" more thirsty than others? To a degree, perhaps but I really think it's the environment that makes the man.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I love this little school - my son is a special needs student - hearing impaired and they have bent over backwards to help him be sucessful. I feel like he has five additional mothers watching out for him - the CARE program is the best and I've seen my son go from somewhat shy and quiet to outgoing and happy - I agree with the parent participation and community feel
Dundee is a wonderful school with a very healthy level of parent participation. It is the community focal point. As a parent, I have been allowed to present feedback and really be an integral part of the education system. Going on 7 years of active, weekly volunteering, I can honestly say I will miss everyone, staff and parent alike, within Dundee Elementary when we move.
The parent involvement in this school is phenomenal. I have met so many wonderful people through the many volunteer opportunities at Dundee. The teaching staff works closely together as a team as well. I have had 2 tag children enrolled for over 7 years, and have been very pleased with this school and community. In addition to the TAG program, the students also participate in Art Literacy in addition to their regular programs. The teaching staff has been consistently committed to doing what is best for their students, including blended classrooms and 'Teaching up' with their classes when necessary. Because of this, both of my children have benefitted by having the same teachers for 2 years in a row. I would recommend this school to anyone!
The teachers are superb and all the support staff are helpful to both parent and child. A caring community feeling is very present at this school.
Dundee Elementary has a great community feel to it. I think average studetns and below average learners are well served. TAG kids are not consistently challenged.

STAUNTON -- An early-morning fire destroyed a vacant house in Staunton Thursday morning. Two homes beside the house also were damaged by the flames.
According to fire officials, it was around 3 a.m. when the vacant house at 26 Lake Avenue caught fire.
The fire is now under investigation.
It took firefighters nearly four hours to put out the blaze.
No one was hurt. Neighbors said the house had been empty since Friday.
The fingers of the flames reached beyond the empty house, breaking the window and melting the shutters on the house next door, where Hoyet and Emma Berry live.
They said they were shaken up after their early-morning visit from police.
"He said 'Get dressed,' 'Y'all get dressed and get out, get out as fast as you can. 'Cause it might get your house,'" Emma Berry said.
"It did get us," Hoyet Berry said. "Some of it."
The fire department said it will be at least a day or two before they know what caused the fire.

I don't even go to SW, or Org. after 4pm. It's a giant Lagfest on my labtop and has slowdown my pc. At least with dal and shatt there was no AH. People there usually were waiting for runs and doing quests. Now with the highest amount of players bliz has ever had, they all are in those cities, unless doing quests.
Now with everything in those 2 cities, it's hurrible. And everyone has to use a drake. just sitting around. I hate those 2 cities. Atleast my IF and TB is a breath of fresh air. It is great. I would make 2 different cities per side. But our luck it will be silvermoon, and exodar

Its only June, but everyone wants to know where their team stands heading into the 2007 NFL season. Well, I am here to let you know how your team stacks up in comparison with all the other teams in The League. My list takes last season's performance, the draft, and all other off-season transactions into consideration. Keep in mind, these rankings will fluctuate throughout the season so don't go jumping off the Bay Bridge quite yet (Raider fans)—your team has a lot of time to improve. Then again, don't go popping the bubbly yet either; teams can fall from grace rather quickly (Steelers ring a bell?). So, here it is:
1. Indianapolis Colts-Defending Super Bowl Champs, 'nuff said.
2. New England Patriots- Made it to the AFC title game last year and added some key players. Randy Moss was a good move but adding the do-it-all defenseman Adalius Thomas is where the Pats will get the most bang for their buck.
3. Baltimore Ravens- Losing the aforementioned Thomas hurts, but defense is still the premier unit in the NFL. Adding Willis McGahee will take pressure off their aging QB Steve McNair. Look for this team to give the Pats and Colts all they can handle in the chase for the Lamar Hunt trophy.
4. Chicago Bears- Defending NFC Champs. Assuming LB Lance Briggs plays, DT Tommie Harris stays healthy, and QB Rex Grossman learned from last season's rollercoaster ride, this team will once again represent the NFC in the Super Bowl.
5. San Diego Chargers- Best RB in the NFL—check. Best TE in the NFL—check. Young, efficient QB—check. Starting the season against the Bears and Patriots might have them off to a slow start, though. If new coach Norv Turner doesn't screw things up and somehow gets the secondary to make some plays, the Chargers will be right back in the thick of things.
6. New Orleans Saints- QB Drew Brees is a proven passer (4,418 yds, 26 tds in '06) and RB/WR/KR/PR Reggie Bush showed flashes of what he's capable of doing in the near future. If defense can continue it's better than average play (13th in points allowed per game), this team has a shot at revenge against the Bears.
7. Denver Broncos- It was the best offseason, it was the worst offseason. Worst because the team saw two players meet untimely deaths (CB Darrent Williams and RB Damien Nash), the best because they cleaned up in the free agent market. CB Dre' Bly, RB Travis Henry and TE Daniel Graham will all contribute. Former Florida pass rusher Jarvis Moss will help immediately. Inexperienced QB Jay Cutler only question mark.
8. Philadelphia Eagles- QB Donovan McNabb was on his way to an MVP season before he got hurt. He'll be healthy and playing with a chip on his shoulder. RB Brian Westbrook will have another superb year and the defense might surprise people with the addition of LB Takeo Spikes. This team will be in the playoffs.
9. Dallas Cowboys- Squeaked into the playoffs in '06 but '07 depends on QB Tony Romo. He plays well, this team goes far. He doesn't, they don't. RB tandem Marion Barber and Julius Jones will be tough to stop and defensive-minded new head coach Wade Phillips will use his talented personnel wisely.
10. Cincinnati Bengals- QB Carson Palmer and WR Chad Johnson are the best big-play duo in the NFL. Off-the-field issues ruined everyone's Super Bowl pick last year but look for the opportunistic defense to put Palmer and Co. in position to put up some serious points in '07.
11. Seattle Seahawks- RB Sean Alexander is showing a little wear-and-tear but capable QB Matt Hasselbeck will get the job done. Defense is still good and head coach Mike Holmgren hates to lose. This team will hold off the Rams and 49ers for one more year in the NFC West.
12. Carolina Panthers- Disappointing '06 showing but this team is too talented not to win some games in '07. DE Julius Peppers is unblockable and WR Steve Smith is a threat to score on every touch. A consistent running game is all this team needs to get back on track.
13. Pittsburgh Steelers- A few bad breaks kept this team from making the playoffs. New head coach Mike Tomlin made Minnesota's defense a tough group and will keep the tradition alive in Pittsburgh. How long LG Alan Faneca holds out will deeply affect this team.
14. New York Jets- Made the playoffs last season against incredible odds. Acquiring RB Thomas Jones from the Bears for a 2nd round pick was a steal. Darrelle Revis, rookie CB from Pitt, will start by midseason and QB Chad Pennington will put up some decent numbers.
15. New York Giants- Loss of RB Tiki Barber hurts, but RB Brandon Jacobs will fill in nicely. Injuries plagued this squad in '06; they must stay healthy in '07 because of their lack of depth. QB Eli Manning is improving, but how long can he and the rest of teammates put up with head coach Tom Coughlin?
16. Jacksonville Jaguars- RB Maurice Jones-Drew took the league by storm last season and we can expect more of the same. Head coach Jack Del Rio is a good motivator, but his fatih in QB Byron Leftwich might come back to haunt him.
17. Kansas City Chiefs- RB Larry Johnson was a stud last year and little will change in '07. Trading QB Trent Green to Miami was a huge step backwards for this team. Although new QB Brodie Coyle may develop into in good one, he's not ready yet.
18. St. Louis Rams- Adding WR/KR Dante Hall will provide a little spark, but not much. Rookie DE Adam Carriker (13th overall pick) doesn't thrill me either. RB Stephen Jackson does have what it takes to carry this team on his broad shoulders. This team will be in the division race right up until the end before Seattle pulls it out.
19. Atlanta Falcons- New head coach Bobby Petrino will put an exciting offense together for QB Michael Vick. If the defense can return to their '05 form we might have 3 playoff teams coming out of the NFC South.
20. Tennessee Titans- '06 Rookie of the Year Vince Young showed that he can win in this league. Adding CB Nick Harper will help the struggling defense keep the Titans in a few games. Not quite ready for primetime, but they're on their way.
21. Minnesota Vikings- Rookie RB Adrian Peterson was a great pick at number 7 overall, and the defensive unit had a very productive (yet quiet) season. New safety Mike Doss will make some noise. Banking on QB Tarvaris Jackson is a stretch.
22. Miami Dolphins- Acquiring QB Trent Green was a great move. Defense will be one of the best again, especially after adding LB Joey Porter. New coach Cam Cameron should get RB Ronnie Brown going again.
23. Buffalo Bills- Lost six games by 8 points or less in '06. If they can find a way to win half of those, they're in the playoffs. Rookie RB Marshawn Lynch (Cal) will fill the void left by McGahee. Losing CB Nate Clements hurt, but they were smart not to pay him the salary he sought. Success depends on whether or not QB J.P. Losman blossoms.
24. San Francisco 49ers- RB Frank Gore was a sight for sore knees, but they really reached on CB Nate Clements. '07 is make-or-break for QB Alex Smith. If he shines, the 49ers are golden in '08. If he flops, top ten picks for the rest of the decade.
25. Houston Texans- Will QB Matt Schaub be the answer to all their problems? No. However, other than RB Ahman Green, this team does have some young talent. '07 will not be their breakout season by any means, but I wouldn't bet on teams covering the spread against them.
26. Arizona Cardinals- Every year, this team is supposed to surprise people. I'm not buying it anymore. QB Matt Leinart did have his moments in '06, so I won't completely count them out. They'll win 7 or 8 games in '07.
27. Green Bay Packers- QB Brett Favre is expecting the team to build on the 8 wins they managed in '06. I don't see it happening. Too many holes, too little time. At least the Lambeau Field faithful get to see a Hall of Famer for one more year.
28. Washington Redskins- RB Clinton Portis is good, but nobody else on this team is. QB Jason Campbell will not improve at a fast enough rate to win any more games than they did last season (5).
29. Cleveland Browns- I love the moves this team made this offseason. Drafting OT Joe Thomas and QB Brady Quinn has this team in the right direction. By the end of September, this team might find themselves in the top 20.
30. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- QB Jeff Garcia will generate some offense, but the defense has to improve for this team to get better. LB Cato June will help, but he's only one man.
31. Oakland Raiders- The defense keeps this team from the bottom spot. QB JaMarcus Russell is going to struggle all year, but he might make a highlight reel or two by shrugging off a few sacks. Al Davis knows he'll need to with that O-line.
32. Detroit Lions- It's a shame, really. WR Calvin Johnson would have been a great NFL receiver had he not been drafted by the Lions. As long as Matt Millen is GM, this team will never crack the top 25.

SOUTH BEND Tuesday night concludes a weight loss journey that America has followed, but it also marks the end for a group in Michiana who has used the hit NBC show, Biggest Loser, as inspiration.
The Biggest Loser: Kroc edition will come to a close Tuesday starting at 7 p.m. Contestants have been working toward weight loss and healthy eating habits for months.
One of those contestants is Julie Harris. Julie is a mother of two, she works full time and she's battled multiple health issues throughout her life. She was born with Wolff–Parkinson–White syndrome, a heart condition that causes abnormalities. She was also recently diagnosed with skin cancer. Julie got pregnant after high school and because of her conditions, was put on bed rest. It was during that time she put on the weight.
At her heaviest, Julie was 295 pounds.
"I just got on the scale and I saw the number on it," said Harris. "You see 295, and that's a large number. A very large number for me."
Julie joined the Kroc in May of 2013, and she's lost 85 pounds in less than a year. It was her trainer, Dawn Myers, who suggested the Biggest Loser competition, and since it started in October, she's lost 20 pounds.
"I'm just honored to be part of her life," said Myers. "And to share in her journey with her. She has had so many obstacles and every reason to give up and quit. And she hasn't."
Julie is in the top 10 in the competition, but winning is about more than a title.
"In this whole journey, I've just learned my strength, I think," said Julie. "I've been a quitter my whole life, I've just been a quitter. I've learned you can't quit. Life is really hard, and you can't quit."
The Kroc's Biggest Loser competition concludes Tuesday night starting at 7 p.m. The final weigh in on NBC's Biggest Loser is Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET.

I am officially insane.
63 days ago I started Insanity with the mentality that I was probably not going to finish. Like so many others who do the program, I figured I would taper off around 2 weeks to a month in. But after month 1 I was hooked.
What I did:
I had a few people ask about my diet after my first month results, but to be honest, I don't watch what I eat at all. I'm exclusively breastfeeding so I eat like a mad woman to keep up with the calories I burn from that and Insanity. On more than one occasion (ahem, everyday) I ate Oreos and chips immediately after my workout. However, my one rule is, I don't eat past 8 PM. I'm sure I could have gotten a lot more lean had I been more attentive to my diet.
I would highly recommend following the schedule:
And never skip a day. Sometimes on rest days I would run 2-3 miles. Or on recovery workout days I would run with my double jogger or by myself instead of doing Insanity (I wasn't super fond of the recovery workouts). But other than that I never skipped a day, even if that meant staying up until 11 to get my workout in.
This was hard work. It wasn't luck and it wasn't because I'm in my twenties, I totally resent being told that. I worked my butt off these past 63 days. There was never a single day I woke up and said "I'm SO PUMPED to do Insanity today! I can't wait to see that stupid Tania rub it in my face how fit she is.", but I did it. I pushed play every single day. Even if my kids refused to nap at the same time. Even if I barely got any sleep the night before. Even when Big S quit on me 2 weeks in and I had to do it alone. I had Shaun T's dumb voice in my head "Dig Deeper people!"When I started I was 7 weeks post-partum and squeezing myself into these jeans.
So I did.
And it paid off.
So I did.
And it paid off.
By the time Month 1 was completed, I had lost 9 pounds and 6 inches from my waist, hips and thighs. And my shorts were turned into "fat jeans".
Today, I've dropped 2 (almost 3) pants sizes. I lost a total of 19 pounds. I cut off 3 inches from my waist, 2 inches from my hips and another 4 from my thighs. And I chopped off all my hair (which was probably a good half a pound of split ends).
Besides my physical changes, my fitness changes were huge. I cut my mile time from 9:30/10 minute miles down to 8:30 minute miles (Only if I'm by myself. With both kids, it's back around 10 minute miles). I added at least 4 extra reps to every single exercise on the fitness test. And I went from on the verge of tears, in a pool of my own sweat, lying on the ground from pure exhaustion to keeping up with stupid Tania and THEN having the energy to run a mile or 2 even after the workout.
Insanity is no joke.
But so are the results.
If you've completed Insanity, how were your results? Did you do a second round? Should I try it again? Or should I try P90X? Focus T25? Train for another half marathon (Looking at one that's in my area around September)? Give me suggestions people!
Don't forget to like and feel free to share :)

Harkin/DeFazio Robin Hood Tax Would Generate $350 Billion
by Mike Hall
If Congress passed the Robin Hood/financial speculation tax, it would raise more than $350 billion between January 2013 and 2021, according to an analysis released Monday by the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation.
The bill, formally known as the Wall Street Trading and Speculators Tax Act, was introduced last week by Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) and Rep. Peter DeFazio (D-Ore.). Says Harkin:
It is hard to argue with this substantial revenue—derived from a tax of $3 on $10,000 of Wall Street trading. Our country needs every dollar possible to invest in infrastructure, job creation, the education of our children and reducing the debt among other priorities. This commonsense tax provides a viable solution.
It is estimated that the Robin Hood tax combined with the projected savings of the drawdowns in Iraq and Afghanistan would hit the budget deficit Super Committee goal of $1.3 trillion in savings.
The small tax would be aimed primarily at high-volume, high-speed traders who deal in stocks, bonds, foreign currency bets, derivatives and other Wall Street financial products. Says DeFazio:
This legislation will generate $350 billion in needed revenue for our cash strapped federal government by targeting speculators flipping stocks a thousand times a minute. We need serious proposals to get our country back on sound fiscal footing. $350 billion in new revenue will reduce our deficit and enable federal investments in our future.
At last week's G-20 summit of the world's biggest economies, many leaders endorsed the larger financial speculation tax proposed by the European Commission. AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, who was in Cannes, France, for the G-20 meeting and who met with many of the nations' leaders, praised Harkin and DeFazio for introducing their bill, but said the AFL-CIO supports a larger tax rate on financial speculation.
In order to maximize revenue and minimize opportunities for tax arbitrage, Congress should pass a U.S. financial speculation tax in line with what has been proposed in Europe.
