There is an 8-person long waiting list for it— PLUS my class took out the 3 copies from the media center. Love when my kids want to read.
This makes me smile.
This reminds me of my first-graders, who would get into arguments and long mental tallies over who read "No, David!" how many times. It didn't help that we had four Davids in our class.
(We couldn't let them fight over it because their fights escalated impressively.)
I need to learn to check where I'm posting to. Really. Seriously. But if you guys want tutorials on things like pillowcase aprons, that's cool too. (I mean technically if your kids are already learning to sew in Home Ec, you could make it a reuse/repurpose/upcycle activity. Or hey, garden aprons. Environmentalism all around.)
Even if I had no issue with higher education, I would take issue with for-profit "universities" lying and cheating students into financial ruin.
Please read this, and, if you take issue, say something and reblog.
…the "Fox in Socks" game.
I noticed a lot of people took notice of one of the quotes I blogged from President Obama's State of the Union last night:
"In fact, to every young person listening tonight who's contemplating their career choice: If you want to make a difference in the life of our nation; if you want to make a difference in the life of a child – become a teacher. Your country needs you."
You can see the responses the quote has gotten; I've reblogged them. I didn't have anything to add to it initially because (as ridiculous as this sounds) I tend to need about 24 hours to really process major speeches like this.
But I will say that, as it went, I too was shouting at the TV from the next room.
Obama said some very kind things about respecting teachers, things that I suppose to people who are not in the education field seem insightful. To this I was shouting "What are you going to do about it?!" so loudly that my mother called downstairs to see what was wrong.
I am twenty-three years old and completing my education (and teaching certification) in the end of May. There are few, if any, jobs here. I'm applying to Teach For America with highest hopes, and if that falls through, I am honestly not sure what I'm going to do. I am neither bilingual nor certified in Special Education, and while I thought that going straight for an Education degree was the wisest choice once I decided I was going to be a teacher, it's turned out that it might have been smarter to pursue a Math or Science degree and go from there, giving me an edge. Right now, I am just another in a sea of prospective twenty-something white female Elementary teachers. So I understand the frustration of many of those reblogging and commenting.
Despite this, I have to hope that this message will reach the younger generation, and those who may not have considered this before. I can hope that it will maybe encourage some more diversity in the field. And more than that, I'm hoping that his piece on education as a whole might stir in the people the desire to rebuild our education system, to engender respect for the profession, to take a more active role in the education of their children, to reassess what's going wrong and what we're doing right. I've posted already an article that notes that students' assessments of their teachers can be a very accurate gauge of teacher effectiveness, and maybe those students who heard this address will have something to say.
Maybe they'll also say "That's nice, but exactly how do you think it's going to happen?"
I'd be more than happy to hear more of your opinions of Obama's education piece in the State of the Union. Please share!

How DO you read a picture book? From the beginning to the end? All in one sitting? Showing the pictures as you go, or reading upside-down so they're always facing the listener? Or, instead of at your feet, are the children you read to in your lap?
You learn about a hundred different ways to read a book when you're teaching — ways that will vary depending on the book, the students, and what you want them to get from it. But one thing I notice is that most people still like to sit and read a story as a story — start to finish. And that's great for some stories, and I'm sure I'll talk to you about different ways to do THAT, too. But not all stories are best that way.
While at the Eric Carle Picture Book Museum, myself and my librarian partner in crime, Colleen, picked up this excellent book that I've been wanting ever since I saw it in my first Literacy Acquisition course:
"What Do Authors Do?" by Eileen Christelow is not only a great glimpse into the process of professional writers for young readers, but it's a perfect jumping-off point for any number of writing workshop lessons and activities too. You can get your copy for fairly cheap:
Christelow is also the author and illustrator of the companion to this, "What Do Illustrators Do?"; the "Five Little Monkeys" series; and among other things, a book titled "Vote!" that I've never seen before but now intend to check out for my future classroom. Seriously, you can never get enough of that sort of resource when you're trying to encourage good citizenship — but back on topic.
Rather than just text and matching pictures, this particular book also utilizes an almost comic-like format in is illustrations. I personally always have a hard time figuring out how to read these to certain age groups — I like to settle on having a student or two taking a character to read the speech bubbles. But when you're reading to six-year-olds, that can get a little difficult! (This year was my first time working with students so young in anything more than an Academic Intervention capacity, to be honest.)
But besides that, because it's nonfiction and walks you through the writing process, it can be taken apart piece by piece to walk your students (or children, or grandchildren, or you!) through the process, just the same. Why not take the opportunity it gives you?
I heavily suggest, for the next couple weeks, taking this book out of the library if you'd like to follow along. I'm going to be referencing it for the lessons, and while I could just take pictures, I feel like it would be unfair to both the creator and the publisher. Better yet, seriously, buy this book. Even if you're a grown adult, it will be one of the better investments you've ever made for your bookshelf.
Lesson 1: Telling a Story from a Prompt
The first few pages of the book talks about where authors get their ideas from. To this end, the male author's dog tries to chase the female author's cat and antics ensue, which they both write about in their different ways.
BUT WAIT. Why are you turning the page to see what the authors do?
Instead, try this:
"Oh no! What do you think is going to happen?" "
Those are some excellent ideas. Before we see what THESE authors write, I want to see what YOU'LL write."
Take a break from the book. It's ok. You'll get back to it. If you're just working with one child, let them keep looking back at the page. If you're dealing with a whole classroom, see if you can blow up that particular illustration ahead of time — as much as SMARTboards occasionally irritate me, they're great for this sort of thing, just scan and post on the board full-size. If you have less capable digital media, you could try scanning in the picture and printing it on transparency paper; printing it out on multiple pages and taping them together; or, if you have a laptop projector, going that route. (If you have specific questions about any of this, please don't hesitate to comment and ask.)
Then, it's simple: "Now, let's all be authors." ("What does an author do?" "Write the words!" you'll hope they answer. A lot of beginning readers have trouble with this; if yours still gets author and illustrator confused, don't be discouraged, just practice.) "This is your illustration. Write me a story about this picture." Some children will go right to it; some might need some help. Try asking them simple, open-ended questions ("Who is the cat? Who is the dog? Why is the dog chasing him?") or things more specific to the picture ("How did the dog end up in the wheelbarrow?").
Don't forget: Make sure that your young authors give the characters names, too!
Every child is at a different level. Some may write you a page. Others might make a whole book, with extra illustrations of their own. Encourage them! If they want to create a whole epic saga about their characters, hand them more paper and ask them to read it to you when they're done. Classroom time constraints? If your students don't have a free-write time, maybe they can do more at home and bring it in for some editing, and "publish" it for a classroom library when they're done with revisions. (If you're not used to doing revisions with your child/children, don't worry — that's covered in this book too!)
Did you try this at home/school? Want to show it off? Send it my way, and I'll be sure to feature it in another Tuesday post!

Ryan Howard was supposed to be out 6-8 weeks, but after a surgery that went "very, very well" according to Ruben Amaro, he could be back in 6-8 weeks.
Without elaborating as far as a time table, Amaro said things in that right knee were not as awful as everybody thought, and Howard's return could even influence the buy/sell debate. Of course, Ruben spent the morning causing an uproar by having it revealed that he's been parading around like some kind of buyer.
But whatever.
There's not a lot to this market right now, even if Ruben were to publicly announce his intentions, regardless of how the Phillies were doing. And the pieces the Phillies would have to trace all have weird crap attached to them, like expensive contracts or wonky body parts or both.
Sometimes, like tonight perhaps, the numbers suggest it's better to not have Howard around anyway. But I digress. If Howard's good prognosis is enough for Ruben to keep plucking away at 2013, then hey, who are we to step on his toes? People from the internet? And if there's anything the internet can teach us, it's that people from the internet hate toes.

Make your coffee sweeter: Adding crushed eggshells to your coffee grounds helps lessen the acidity of your coffee. Then you can toss the used grounds and eggshells in your compost bin or toss them both into your garden soil. The eggshells have the calcium, but the coffee grounds provide the nitrogen.
Add. Notes: The finer you grind your eggshells, the sooner the calcium will be available to garden plants. Critters dislike the sharp chalkiness so sprinkle around plants for natural barrier.
The nutritional compostion of egg shells is very similar to that of our own bones and teeth, which makes them ideal for this, since as well as calcium they contain a wide range of additional micronutrients beneficial to these body structures, like molybednum, boron, silicon e.t.c.
Making your own calcium supplement from egg shells couldn't be easier (or more economical). Rinse out egg shells (leaving the membrane intact as this contains substances which are good for the joints) and leave to air dry. Depending on what you have to hand, use a blender/plastic bag and rolling pin (although a coffee grinder works best) to crush the shells to a fine powder. One medium egg shell will grind down into 1 tsp of powder, which contains 750-800 mgs of elemental calcium. In order to transform this into the most bio-available form of calcium (calcium citrate), mix 1/2 tsp egg shell powder with the juice 1/2 freshly squeezed lemon and leave for a minimum of six hours, but no longer than twelve.
you should definitely eat these if you're trying to be awesome
Just remember that if water can't get into our cells, wastes and garbage can't get out. By applying these simple tools the benefits you can reap are huge - our bodies can clean themselves, our skin improves, our mood improves, our energy level picks up, our bowels become more regular and we get rid of stagnant water from our system. Sounds like an increase in overall health and well- being.

The magnets were exactly what I was hoping they would be. We had ordered these magnets previously and I had asked for a stylistic update on how we presented our contact information on the bottom. I appreciated their timeliness when I provided them feedback on the design and also with the ordering and shipping process. Generally speaking, these are one of our main promo items for college students and seems to be pretty popular. I would definitely consider reordering these in the future.

Nice, a little smaller than anticipated, as I didn't pay attention to dimension, but quality is fine. (I remembered seeing this item larger previously). I liked that they are individually wrapped, very nice touch.

Does anyone still have /tmp without noexec ?
/dev/sda2 on /tmp type ext3 (rw,noexec,nodev,nosuid)
1) A lot of people have a "one partition for everything" configuration,
as that's what their distro did at the time they first installed it. This
makes it hard to mount /tmp with different options, and a lot of people don't
feel like doing a complete re-install to repartition.
2) An amazing amount of stuff assumes that /tmp has 'exec' - at
least for a while, 'rpmbuild' of a Redhat Perl would die because it
build into a directory on /tmp, and then tried to run a binary out
of that just-built tree - workaround was to feed rpm a '%_tmpdir ='
pointing elsewhere. Dell's microcode installer hits the same issue,
as did at least some OpenOffice builds.
So if you do it, be prepared to get bit, and have to do a
'mount -o remount,exec /tmp' once in a while...

Last night I dreamt I was in a shopping mall that was part tacky, antique home decor, and part live art installation of de Sade's 120 Days of Solom with hundreds of nude, queer bodies. There is a man with a facial disfiguration slithering along the floor, his mouth sucking the dirt off the tiles. There is a woman with a cobweb tattooed across her face and chest. There are transgender bodies. There are bodies with sadistic scars (deep cuts and whip lashes). There is a domnimatrix with a myriad of facial piercings and dyed red hair.
The curator of the installation tells me that the arts organization that has put this on has had a very difficult time "controlling" these bodies. Several have tried to commit suicide. Many of them are not following "the rules" of the piece.
I have never seen Pasolini's Salo or the 120 days of Sodom. I can't.
In My Death My Life By Pier Paolo Pasolini, Kathy Acker writes:
So I can see any and everything. I can talk about everything as a child would. The interior or my mind versus the exterior. Art proposes an interiority which no longer exists for all of us are molded. The nightmare that I fear most is true.
Yesterday, I spent the entire day working on my "performance and humiliation" essay. I write: Humiliation is a price we pay for having a body. I write: My humiliation is not your humiliation.
Yesterday, my lover fucked and spanked me until I came.
In my dream, I am riding up the escalator when I think to myself: These bodies scare me. I am taken aback by my own narrow-mindedness and run to the bathroom to pee and take a shit in a bathroom with a window. A man watches me silently through the window. After I relieve myself I re-enter the installation. I am no longer scared, but content and calm. Calmer than I have ever felt in my entire life.

Last night, I reviewed all of the playoff scenarios for the New Orleans Saints, which included a review of most of Carolina's postseason hopes. Since interactions with several Panther fans have been refreshing this past week, on both CSC and CSR, I thought I would go ahead and put together a breakdown of the Panthers playoff hopes after their Sunday night loss in New Orleans.
For more information about the NFL's tie-breaking procedures, or to better understand the details of how the Panthers could take the NFC South title from the Saints, feel free to check out the article which came out on CSC this morning.
Following an eventful weekend of football, the Carolina Panthers (9-4) must finish strong if they want to make the playoffs this year. Right now, the possibilities range from claiming the No.1 seed to missing the postseason altogether. Winning the rematch against the New Orleans Saints on December 21st would certainly help the Panthers get into the playoffs, but wouldn't guarantee them a wildcard berth, much less the division. For Carolina to control its own destiny, and not rely on other teams losing, only three wins would guarantee a spot in the postseason. Below, I cover the various possible roads to the postseason for the Panthers, including a review of the most relevant tiebreakers.
What happens if they don't win any more games?
Currently, the Niners (9-4), Cardinals (8-5), Eagles (8-6), Lions (7-6), Bears (7-6), Cowboys (7-6) and Packers (6-6-1) are all poised to overtake a Panthers team that loses out the rest of the season, to finish (9-7). It is possible that these teams lose the right combination of games to let the Panthers in the playoffs with only nine wins. If the Cardinals win even one game, however, they would beat the Panthers in a head-to-head tiebreaker. It is likely that at least two of those seven teams will finish the season with records good enough to knock a nine-win Carolina franchise out of the postseason.
Will one more win lock the Panthers into the playoffs?
Although there would be a good amount of satisfaction gained from beating the Saints when they travel to Carolina, even a win against New Orleans wouldn't guarantee the Panthers a berth in the playoffs. If the Saints defeat the Rams and Bucs, they are guaranteed the No.2 seed even with a loss to the Panthers. Also, the Cardinals own the tiebreaker over the Panthers, so either Arizona or San Francisco (9-4) would have to lose two of their remaining games if one win is going to be enough for Carolina to beat either of them into the postseason.
The Packers would no longer be a threat after a Carolina win, and the Cowboys would win the NFC East if they defeated the Eagles to finish (10-6). Also, the Panthers are guaranteed the tiebreaker against a Bears team which has already lost six conference games. However, they would lose the conference tiebreaker to the Eagles.
If the Panthers defeat only the Jets, they lose the conference tiebreaker to the Detroit Lions; though if Carolina's only victory comes against the Saints or Falcons, the Panthers would have the same conference record as the Lions. Detroit's loss to the Buccaneers would give Carolina the win in that situation, regardless of how the Lions perform against the Giants.
So one win would put the Panthers beyond the reach of the Cowboys, Bears, and possibly the Lions; while the Eagles, Cardinals, Niners (and possibly Lions) could still knock the Panthers out of the playoffs.
Would two wins be enough?
An eleven-win record is out of reach for everyone else in the NFC but the Seahawks, Niners, Saints, Eagles, and Cardinals. If the Eagles have eleven wins, they are representing the NFC East in the postseason, so they are no longer a threat. The Seahawks and Cardinals own the tiebreakers against Carolina, while the Niners do not. So if Seattle loses out, and the 49ers win the NFC West, Seattle would take a wildcard spot. If the Cardinals win out, they could take the other. To better understand the situations in which eleven wins would give the NFC South to New Orleans or Carolina, check out this morning's article on CSC.
So two Carolina wins would eliminate threats from the Eagles and Lions, while leaving five teams fighting for four playoff berths. If the Panthers don't win the NFC South, they need the Cardinals to lose or the Seahawks to win the NFC West in order to make the playoffs with two wins. Otherwise, they lose head-to-head wildcard tiebreakers to both the Seahawks and Cardinals. That scenario only happens if Seattle loses out, Arizona wins out, and the Niners win their next two games; but it's possible.
What will winning all three do for the Panthers?
If the Saints lose to either the Rams or Bucs, then the Panthers win the NFC South with three wins. If the unlikely scenario outlined at the end of the previous paragraph were to happen, Carolina could even secure the No.1 seed with three wins. Otherwise, Cam Newton is guaranteed a wildcard berth. Arizona can not end the season with twelve wins, and either the Seahawks or Niners would win the NFC West. The other NFC West team would take one wildcard berth, leaving the other for Carolina.
So what you're saying is...
- The Panthers could lose their remaining three games, and still make the playoffs, if several other teams lose enough games.
- Even three wins would not guarantee Carolina the division title, though it would guarantee the team a playoff berth.
- Two wins would almost guarantee the Panthers make the postseason, unless... Seattle loses out, Arizona wins out, and the Niners win their next two games. This would leave the Seahawks and Cardinals as the two wildcard teams, unless the stars otherwise align (giving Carolina the division, and New Orleans the wildcard over Arizona).
- The Panthers could also take the top seed in the NFC: with three wins, two Saints losses, and the above very unlikely scenario playing out for the NFC West.

Look Who's Talking for Bombardier
Bombardier has appointed movie star and pilot John Travolta as one of its business aircraft brand ambassadors. Over and above being a licensed jet pilot and advocate for corporate aviation, Travolta has an incredibly busy schedule of filming, publicity and charity work. He also likes to take his wife and children with him wherever possible and will add a Challenger 601 to his fleet shortly. "It made sense. I am impressed by its safety, which is very important when I have my family on board," he told AIN at a September 20 launch event in Hollywood. "Business aviation has always made sense to me in that it offers flexibility, privacy, security and most important, timesaving–meaning I have the ability to keep up with my busy schedule and have more time for my family. On top of that, I'm a pilot; I love to fly." Travolta recently obtained a type rating for the Challenger 601.

British court orders caesarean section on mentally-ill woman
A mentally-ill 32-year-old British woman gave birth to a baby Saturday by a forced caesarean section after a court gave doctors permission to perform the urgent surgery.
A judge gave doctors at a London hospital the go-ahead Friday after concluding that the woman, who was 32 weeks pregnant and a diabetic, was unable to make a rational decision over how to give birth.
The judge said a decision "compelling" a caesarean section was "draconian", but concluded that the woman lacked the mental ability to regulate her diabetic medicine and monitor her own intake of food and water, The Independent reported.
"The decision to compel a caesarean section on an incapacitous woman who is mentally and physically ill is an extremely draconian one. Doctors do not embark upon this lightly. It occurs extremely rarely. It is one that the lawyers also take very seriously indeed," the judge said.
At a hearing in the court, hospital officials said the woman was in an "unstable mental state" and that she could not be treated properly.
The court heard that the woman was thought to be suffering from paranoid schizophrenia and had attempted suicide.
The woman's husband also has mental health problems and had initially opposed a caesarean section but had changed his mind and agreed to the surgery.
The baby was delivered without any problem and no restraint had been necessary.

Preoperative Testing Could Be a Waste of Time and Money
Cumulatively, both groups experienced adverse events in 3% of surgeries. There was no significant difference in the number of adverse events for the testing group vs. the no-testing group. The most common events were high blood pressure and irregular heart rates. "Our study demonstrates that perioperative morbidity and morality are not reduced by routine use of commonly ordered preoperative medical tests," the authors write, adding that they "found no benefit of routine preoperative medical testing ... according to the participating center or the age, sex, or race of the patient."
While he praised the study, one prominent researcher also expressed "fear" about the possible misinterpretation of the findings. Michael F. Roizen, MD, chairman of the department of anesthesiology and critical care medicine at the University of Chicago, who wrote an editorial that was published with the study, tells WebMD he is not confident that routine physicals and medical histories are being taken or that these will be paid for if testing is abandoned.
"There has been a large body of knowledge that has created what I call a compelling rationale for less testing, but there is also the compelling message that if you are going to do less testing, you need also to have a system that ensures an adequate history and physician examination be done," Roizen says.
"Will this get done the way it ought to? I don't know," Roizen says. "Will people put up barriers to it being done right? Absolutely. Obviously, there is a complex of people who profit from more testing, and it is not in their best interest to do less testing. And there are other people, like myself, who will say you can't just stop testing."
Roizen says he also sees the findings as applicable to all minimally invasive surgeries, and perhaps a good deal of moderately invasive procedures, although "we don't have good data on moderately invasive surgeries. Hopefully, this study will allow that [research] to occur."
The federal Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, which funded the study, will see that these findings are distributed. But beyond that, the agency can't produce guidelines itself, says Hedy Hubbard, the project manager for the cataract research.
"I think it is very compelling, and I think it should be taken seriously," Hubbard tells WebMD. "I don't think the agency is going to take a dramatic stand and say, 'Definitely, no more preoperative testing should be done.' That is dictating care, and we don't do that. We share the information; that is our role."
Vital Information:
- In a large study of patients undergoing cataract surgery, those who underwent a series of routine, preoperative tests fared just as well as those who did not receive the tests.
- Researchers say these results could be extended to discourage testing in many types of surgery, including those where there is little blood loss or when local anesthesia is used.
- One expert cautions that routine physicals and medical histories are critical, if preoperative testing is going to be limited.

Instead of guests Memorial Day mud flowed into the Keith family's 45,000 dollar pool.
"There's no way anyone could get in this, the whole bottom is covered with mud," Steve Keith said. Keith blames the mud runoff on a vacant lot behind his house.
A member of the development group that owns the sloping lot tells Channel 6 the mud is coming from the vacant lot but the group is not responsible for what's flowing in the neighbor's pool.
Ashford Hollow Development says builders of neighboring homes removed protective vegetation. But Marquee homes says it's the Keith's own fault for having a flat backyard.
"It's not our fault. We were here first. The builder needs to put up a silt fence to stop the mud from flowing," Susan Keith said.
Both neighboring builders promise to look for answers but neither say it's their fault. The Keith's say this finger pointing only muddies the water.
"Everybody is blaming everybody else and nobody wants to fix it. In the meantime we have a great mud bath," Steve Keith said.
An engineer called by the Keiths says that even before builders came this portion of Ashford Hollow wasn't designed correctly. Whether that can be corrected now is about as clear as the Keiths' pool.

Boffins build R2-WEE-2: The urine-powered robot with a human-like heart
Scientists have taken one step closer to creating a truly autonomous waste-driven robot by building an artificial heart capable of pumping urine into the machine's bacterially-driven "engine room". The "EcoBot" is powered by "electricity-generating microbial fuel cells that employ live microorganisms to digest waste organic …
I was going to make a "Spare some piss guv?" joke
But not after seeing the bots eating dead flies, If we're building robots that can power themselves from decaying meat then this shit isn't funny anymore.
The concept of killer cannibal robots is way scarier than rootin' tootin' shootin' terminators.

Re: I was going to make a "Spare some piss guv?" joke
Technically they wouldn't be cannibals unless they dined on other robots but otherwise I agree. I hope any such "mobile, distributed sensor network" doesn't become a "mobile, disgruntled sensor network".
Re: I was going to make a "Spare some piss guv?" joke
You could have gone with "Spare a penny, guv?"
Or is that just a UK-ism?
Re: I was going to make a "Spare some piss guv?" joke

My old university lecturer in robotics once made a slug eating robot, if I remember how he described it right, it caught slugs in the garden, then returned slugs to a digester that created power to recharge slug bot

Re: Fred 2-L
Yes, but surely it's just a matter of time?
A new vision of 'The Matrix'
Think rows and rows of catheterized humans. The Matrix: taking the piss since 2013.
"After publication, Dr Ioannis Ieropoulos from the BRL got in touch to clarify: "The EcoBot line of work developed at BRL has always had the benevolent waste utilisation in mind, and so when these self-sustainable robots are being developed, the main target application is remote area access, where it would be lethal, impossible or undesirable for humans to go. This has been at the core of the research and any association with the science-fiction imaginative robots [to which] you refer would be inaccurate.""
Well, he would say that, wouldn't he! That's what they said about Skynet.....
If it is intended to work in remote areas where humans can't go, what is the point in making it human (urine) powered? Serious question.
Don't worry Dr Ioannis Ieropoulos El Reg's piss taking is entirely harmless... much like your robots... we hope.
Oh Yes....
....it's all laughs and titters until they start ripping meat bags apart to get at their bladders.

Swafford resigns seat on council
Panel has 45 days to fill vice mayor slot
By Elizabeth Wilkerson - firstname.lastname@example.com
STRASBURG -- Vice Mayor Carlyle Swafford has resigned his seat on the Strasburg Town Council.
In his resignation letter to Mayor Tim Taylor, which is dated Aug. 21, Swafford writes that he has accepted a job as director of operations for Pennrose Management Co. in Philadelphia after "an extensive job search lasting 3 months." He was scheduled to begin work in Philadelphia on Monday, it says, and his resignation became effective Sunday at 12:01 a.m.
Swafford was elected to the panel in May 2008, and his term began on July 1, 2008. He has served as chairman of the council's public safety committee.
On Monday, Swafford said the property management company he worked for, like so many others, had made cutbacks and he had been unemployed for a few months.
"Unfortunately, with the events as they took place, I find myself in Pennsylvania," he said. "In no way did I want to do this. It's something that we as a family were forced to do."
Swafford said his family would continue to live in Strasburg and support the town and its council. Serving the town's residents has been "an honor," he said.
"You have a very dynamic set of personalities on the council, and together they've accomplished a lot," he said. "I think each of us accented our strong points and we covered for our weaknesses.
"I think it's a great council. I think that the town voted in some really fine folks that have Strasburg as their main interest, and not their personal agendas."
Moving forward, it's "extremely important" that town officials "continue the process of positioning [the Strasburg Volunteer Rescue Squad] to be successful," he said.
On Monday, Taylor said he had been in touch with Swafford recently and knew the councilman might have to move out of the area.
"I was happy he was able to find something ... but, obviously, I hate to see him go," Taylor said. "I thought he had a good common sense about him. I do think he represented this community very well."
The council has 45 days to appoint someone to fill Swafford's seat until July 1, when a replacement elected in May will join the panel, Town Manager Kevin Fauber said. Taylor said his understanding is that the fifth-place finisher in the council's May election will fill Swafford's unexpired term, while the four highest vote-getters will fill the four-year terms.
The appointment could happen as soon as the council's Sept. 8 meeting, Taylor said, but "it depends on if we have someone at that time." The council has a work session Saturday, he said, so he'll ask the panel to "start thinking of someone who might be able to fill the spot."
Since Swafford served as vice mayor, the council will have to appoint a member to that position, as well, Taylor said.
Town Attorney Jay Neal said the town's charter, which was recently updated, now provides that the vote of an appointed official is the same as that of an elected official, except where the Virginia Constitution provides otherwise.
"For 95 percent of the things that the council deals with, all the [council members'] votes are going to be the same," he said.

Title: Dispersal polymorphism in an invasive forest pest affects its ability to establish
Author: Robinet, Christelle; Liebhold, Andrew M.
Year: 2009
Publication: Ecological Applications 19(7): 1935-1943.
Key Words: Allee effects, biological invasion, diffusion, dispersal, gypsy moth, individual-based model, Lymantria dispar, mating success, stochasticity
Abstract: Given the increasing number of biological invasions, there is a crucial need to identify life history traits that promote invasion. Invasiveness reflects capabilities for both establishment after introduction and spread following establishment. In this paper, we explore, via simulation, the interacting effects of dispersal and Allee effects on both invasion processes. Dispersal capability is a trait that has been widely recognized to facilitate invasions. However, dispersal dilutes local population densities in isolated populations and this could strengthen Allee effects, ultimately promoting extinction of invading populations. A spatially explicit, stochastic individual-based model was used to simulate dispersal, mating, and growth in isolated, newly arrived invading populations. We used the invasion of North America by the gypsy moth, Lymantria dispar, as a case study because: (1) a great amount of biological data on the species is available; (2) Allee effects caused by mate location failure are known to play an important role in its establishment and spread; and (3) a dispersal polymorphism has previously been identified (i.e., in some populations adult females are fully capable of flight, but in other populations females are not able to fly). We considered the introduction of a hypothetical number of eggs at a single location, originating from populations with varying female dispersal capabilities, and we then used simulation models to evaluate the population growth rate over two generations as well as spread distance. Nondispersing populations had the highest growth rates and inclusion of even limited dispersal capabilities caused population growth rates to be greatly diminished. The Allee threshold was 700 eggs for nondispersing populations and 1400 eggs for the long-distance dispersing populations. Thus, for an intermediate number of eggs initially introduced, nondispersing populations would most likely establish, whereas dispersing populations would likely become extinct. Spread distance increased linearly with the number of eggs initially introduced in both dispersing and nondispersing populations but rapidly reached a limit for nondispersing populations. Though species capable of long-distance dispersal may invade a larger area than nondispersing species, their growth rates are likely to be considerably lower, and eradication should be easier. Following these results, strategies for managing invasions should be adjusted for the interactions between Allee effects and dispersal.

Kim Stolz Takes on the News Media
Ever since she first appeared on America's Next Top Model in 2005, Kim Stolz has
given a face to a new generation of queer women. She may not have won the
modeling reality show, but she's been the success story of the series, and she
also happens to be an out lesbian.
Stolz is now an MTV News Correspondent as well as a VJ for
mtvU, where she hosts The Freshmen, a
show about new music. (AfterEllen.com's parent company, Logo, is owned by MTV.)
She's not only a talking head, though — she's a reporter who interviews
political candidates and writes stories for the MTV News website. She has also maintained
her flair for fashion and entertainment by working on features with musicians
and movie stars on and off the red carpet.
Stolz recently talked to AfterEllen.com about her career,
her odd relationship with Tyra Banks, and her plan to have no plan at all.
AfterEllen.com: You've been doing a lot of political writing
for MTV News. Is that something you wanted to do when you first started out at
Kim Stolz: Absolutely. My major at
Wesleyan was government and international politics. Politics is really
something I want to be involved with, and definitely something that sparks my
interest. For MTV News, being able to interview presidential candidates and
other political figures and covering political stories, it's been an amazing
part of my experience and something I want to continue to do.
AE: Being an out lesbian, have you ever felt that anyone has
thought you were trying to get across "a gay agenda"?
KS: No. Honestly, I am a news
correspondent so I try to report the news and serve as a bridge from who I'm
interviewing to the audience, so I don't think that I come across having an
agenda simply because I don't have one.
Photo credit: Jeff Fusco/Getty Images
AE: Are you the first
out lesbian VJ on MTV that you know of?
KS: Honestly, I have no idea. To my knowledge [yes], but I don't want to
offend anybody if anyone else is out there!
AE: At least in America, from what I've researched,
I haven't seen any others.
KS: Well, I know I'm the only lesbian
news correspondent in New York.
AE: It seems like
your personal style has changed quite a bit since when you were on America's Next Top Model. Is that
something that you had to do to be more "camera-friendly" for MTV or
something that has evolved for you?
KS: I've always felt that my style was very versatile, and I think that at
different points in my life, I've expressed different parts of myself. I think
everybody can relate to that.
I think there's a time and a place to wear the more
androgynous clothes I wear, and there's another time and a place, like on TRL, when I want to wear a cute dress
and get in touch with my feminine side. I think that I've never been pushed to
wear one thing or another. It certainly all comes from me, and I like to
express myself different ways through my clothes.

AE: When you decided to get your new haircut, did you think
that some fans might have something to say about it? It seems like you have a
lot of them on the internet making comments like, "Kim has girlie hair
KS: Well, from the moment I stepped on
the television on America's Next Top
Model, I felt like I tried to transcend stereotypes, as someone who was
adverse to that. I certainly don't want to be boxed in a haircut or a style of
clothing. I don't know, I do what I like with my hair and my clothes, and I
present myself in the way that I feel and hopefully people get it.
