We do not need to change the education system
We should not change our education system; we have to make another one.
Our education system is a huge slave training for our selfish needs and purposes. We want them to replay our life, to feel that we will exist in our children when we are dead, they will continue our way, to feel that we are eternal, our self-esteem do not let us say "ok, maybe it is all wrong, this whole system of life, this way of thinking, maybe we can improve our life with a completely different approach, we do not have such a beautiful life here on earth, I do not know, maybe the technology is not the answer, maybe it is something else that we cannot even think of, maybe we have gone the wrong direction all this time". We insist in our way of life because we do not know any other. children are the only hope, they have not been influenced by our society as we have, they have less presumption than us, they can think with much more extend than us, their imaginary mind is much more powerful than us, imaginary for us, but it is the reality for them, we should not tell them they have a good imaginary mind we have to say your real world is much better than us, we should not kill every symptom that threats our stubborn minds, we should let it grow, we should make them our leaders, not to lead them to the dark that we are in it already.
Mar 12 2013: I agree with this statement completely.
We need to personalize education and encourage intrinsic motivation (and achieve flow and self-control) and helping students achieve their maximal potential. Rather than telling some people that they are "stupid" and can "never change"! (resulting in a self-fulfilling prophecy)
I mean a great story I love is when a man asks God to show him the "greates general" and it shows him one of his friends. And the man replies : "I knew him he was an awful general".
Then the God replies : "But he could have been the best general if only people had more faith in him".
And I hope to make all people achieve their potential and become those "best generals".Mar 11 2013: Afshin:
As is true with most of our institutions and,
perhaps those in all countries, is that they are mismanaged for the wrong reasons, by the wrong people and only for the benefit of those doing the managing.
Much of what you said Afshin is true and I especially resonate with your final comment:
"not to lead them into the dark that we are in already."
And we sure as hell are in the dark that those who educated us, led us into.
Now they want us to stay there.
If we build a new education system, isn't that in some way changing the one we have? At the very least it is getting rid of it and that, I also would agree with.
Our institutions and, perhaps those in most countries, need to go, not just be "fixed" as they cannot be fixed.
They are no good as they don't really help those imprisoned in them.
The world over needs to build a new, just system, that benefits all people.
I can't imagine why anyone would be against such a thing.
But, there are those who are against such things.
Who are these people?
Our leaders, everywhere, in every country.
They have to go too.
To be successful in the education system in Amerika is to learn how to be successful in a corrupt system.
That, is going into the dark you alluded to in your idea.
Thus, the person has to become corrupted. They will more than likely have to become a "team player" of some kind if they want to progress in their field. Their lives, livelihood, families, their future, their children and even their country (so they are told), will be at risk or certain death, if they don't play the way they are told to.
So everyone is in some way corrupted but only a very few really benefit because those benefits keep them at the top.
The children of today should be taught how to change the unjust systems they already have been born into. How to get rid of them and how to get out from under the thumbs of those who oppress.
It is another, sneaky and insidious version of the caste system. Go along if you want to get along.

Mar 11 2013: Where is the line between reforming something and making a new one?
- +1
Mar 12 2013: A new one doesn't carry the old one around with it, or within it.
The old one is totally corrupted. Nothing is of value in it. Keeping any part of it is sure to corrupt a new system. That is the intention.
It is like doing an inventory.
One cannot be mislead.
It is a fact-finding and fact-facing process.
We have to get to the truth about the stock in trade.
We cannot fool ourselves about value.
What hasn't worked, has to go.
What doesn't work, has to go.
What prevents them from working is what has corrupted the entire system, so it all has to go.
Whatever the new, just system is, it will determine what goes into it.
Decisions must be about how they are made, not who makes them.
If we humans are honest about our inventory, we will admit that our systems are totally corrupt and function on corruption. They can function no other way!
What ever supports the growth of corruption, what ever aids it, makes it possible, has to go.
Just listen to those who fight for keeping "traditions" and argue about what would happen if we humans were to create a just system and implement it. It is only leaders who do not want such things.
They too have to go.Mar 12 2013: There is not a specific line, but many think that our way of teaching children has to change, what I am saying is the purpose has to change, the concept of why we are teaching them has to change, the philosophy that is laying behind the education system has to change.
Mar 12 2013: There is so much variety in the goals and approach of schools. My experience has been entirely with schooling in the United States and to a small degree some aspects of mathematics education elsewhere, but my recent study of schools in some other parts of the world has been a true eye-opener, mainly for the differences.
I know absolutely nothing about schooling in Iran, whether it is fairly homogenoeous or whether curriculum decisions are decentralized so that different schools are widely different, whether you have free public education through high school..., I just don't know.
I know a lot about the variety of models in place in the US.
Mar 13 2013: I have been in the US, and it is not that different, the concept is the same but with more colores, equipments and many innovative methods in your country, which make it much more intresting and efficient of course, but in the same direction.Mar 13 2013: Did you spend a fair amount of time in schools in the US? From the Wikipedia article entitled Education in Iran, the system, teacher training, and curriculum look quite different from the US. What is your central concern about schooling in Iran?
Mar 13 2013: You said you know absolutely nothing about schooling in Iran, but I have family and friends in the US who has experienced all the education process there, You may get a better feeling of what I am talking about by listning to Georg Carlin's "it's bad for ya" and "life worth losing".Mar 13 2013: I would be interested in whether you would consider the Wikipedia article called Education in Iran to be fairly accurate. Realizing I knew nothing about education in Iran and that schools differ in different parts of the world and even within countries, I read that article in order to better understand where you were coming from.
For example, education in Iran seems, according to that article, to be standardized at the national level under the auspices of the Ministry of Education. In the United States, in contrast, while there is a national department that gives grants to states for schools, education is mostly funded and directed at the state and local level in the United States. Each state has its own laws which put forward the goals for education in that state, and within that, local school distrcts city by city can define a mission consistent with the state guideline.
Public schools are mandatory through twelfth grade here but not, it seems, in Iran. Public schools are secular in the United States, but in Iran, according to the article, one of the mandated aims for all schools is religious.
Mar 13 2013: Ok, we are tallking about different subjects. But thank you for your comment.Mar 16 2013: hello afshin,
I am currently a high school senior in America, so I believe that my particular perspective is not only the most relevant, but often overlooked(many times reformers seem to overlook those that are currently affected and talk with the "experts in education" who have not been in high school for thirty years)
I don't necessarily agree that the older generation is trying to relive thier lives, but just trying to ensure that thier children will have the same oppurtunities as they had. However, there is a significant problem with this. Many of the oppurtunities for employment the older generation had is either already gone or will be soon. As computers increasingly replace the menial, mindless jobs, the need for innovative, discerning workers will become necessary (as computers lack the ability to discern or self-progress). You did touch on it, but just to reiterate, education needs to promote free thinking problem solvers....not brainwashed robots designed to regurgitate facts at a moments notice. I can tell you from current experience, the kids who can most quickly rattle of statistics (which they dont really understand) are the ones who are most rewarded. We need to change this convention, and aim for a generation of students who understand the problem in a deeper, more relevant way, through education that can be applied directly to thier lives, aiming them problem solvers who know how to actually effectively utilize the information they already know.Mar 15 2013: You see, we are all so excited about new education systems that trains leaders and innovators so that we can have better and better lives. But the reality is, this world can only support so many leaders and innovators. I do understand that I'm being extremely elitst here, but it's true, like the food pyramid in the ecosystem, you need people who will work tirelessly, mindlessly, and happily for pretty much no reason. I mean if everybody figured out the meaning of life when they are 25, to be brutaly honest I don't think the world is going to work anymore.
So there is a reason why education is the way it is now. I'm sorry for bringing up one of the darker sides of society but in order to sustain it, some people must be kept in the dark because the modern society isn't really practical right now, why would anybody work your butts off when you can make money, loads and loads of them by just moving funds around? Sometimes the good way isn't nessesarily the right way.
Afshin Ommi
Mar 15 2013: Daniel, I liked your comment. It completely make sense to me. As you were brutaly honest and stated that if everybody figured out the meaning of life when they are 25, the world is not going to work any more (I want to add to your statement) the world would not going to work anymore, As It Is working Right Now.
- +1
I am wondering if there is another way to manage the world that we do not need ignorent people for the world to be sustainable. Sometimes I think I cannot even dream of another system that works, and I do not know if it is because there is no other system that can work or because of my presomptions and the misleading way that the leaders have taught us to think.
Mar 15 2013: Well the leap is huge, I can see two ways this whole system can work, one is basically the system right now, where majority of the people are kept in the muddy darkness wadding their way through to presumed bliss. The other way is that every single person needs to understand that they are part of a big picture, a cog in the entire machine of modern society, and it is true, everybody plays a somewhat important and irreplacable role. That is the only way I can imagine the whole world to function, it's kinda like utopia, but there it is....it's utopia XD.Mar 14 2013: Afshin, do you think we need to change our religion system? What do you think of MALALA? I hope you understand the importance of educating women. Males=Females. I imagine you understand that important fact of life. Until the world acknowledged that FEMALES are EQUAL to MALES, humanity shall continue to suffer needlessly. Only truth works to bring about the healthy, happy lives that are possible. Let's change all systems to reflect the positive realities and possibilities of our species. We are all humans. We are all earthlings. Let's co-create a positive existence for ALL HUMAN BEINGS. Thanks.
Mar 14 2013: Please read the text before commenting about it, thank you.
Mar 15 2013: I did.
Mar 15 2013: Rhona, I think Afshin has a point...his idea has nothing to do with gender....Mar 11 2013: A fellow Bengali man has won TED prize this year. I think he is the most happening person after Salman Khan in the field of education.
Mar 12 2013: Too right, those two guys are my inspiration. Sugata and Salman kick started my research into education over the last few years and I think they are on the right track.
I think the main points we need in any future education system can be taken from them:
First: The software system that Mr Khan uses in his academy should be used in every school, we need to be able to track students more closely. I teach in China, which I imagine shares a common problem with india, way too many students. I have 50 students in a class and no way to really know who has problems with what. W need a system where we can better find out who is struggling in which area, and help them rather than let them fall behind.
Second: Both of them talk about classes where the students learn from each other and the teacher monitors, this should be the future of teaching. It can let weaker students catch up, it gives the teacher time to give more attention to the kids rather than just stand up and talk all the time, it allows more use of modern technology because lets face it, none of us know more than 1% of the knowledge we can find online, it means strong students can go ahead faster and perhaps most importantly, students will be more involved in the learning.Mar 12 2013: That talk is the same concept of teaching just with a different method. we need to ask why we are teaching our children, what we are producing with this education factory, to make humans that are the same as what we are_maybe_ just with better quality and more efficient? That talk is a big thing, there is no doubt about that, but that is about how to teach. I am asking "Where are you going Mr. Education", not "How are you doing".
Mar 13 2013: Well if Sugata Mitra and Salman Khan are taken any seriously, we are heading towards an education system in future where teachers will be replaced by facilitators, books will be replaced by videos and practical projects and students will be replaced by learners. There will be no age bar for learning, no fixed academic sessions, no diplomas awarded at the end of terms.
For my imaginary grand son I would want a Miss Education who he can take out for a date.
Mar 13 2013: :) ..Well, what I am saying is she is too old for him.Mar 11 2013: A fellow Bengali man has won the TED prize this year. I think you will find his experiment interesting.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sqwd_u6HkMo&feature=player_embeddedMar 11 2013: Schools vary greatly from country to country as does student attitudes. There is a great deal to be unhappy about in American schools. However, I assume consensus would be hard to reach.Mar 11 2013: Afshin,
You sound very passionate. Can you elaborate on your idea and begin to start a plan?Mar 11 2013: Heidi Hayes Jacobs says we are preparing student for 1991 with the curriculum that are current teaching. She says in her TEDx Talk that reforming school is not enough, because reform means tweeting schools. We need to new forms of schools
As Executive Director of the Curriculum Mapping Institute and President of Curriculum Designers, Inc., Dr. Jacobs is an internationally recognized expert in the fields of curriculum and instruction. She has served as an education consultant to schools nationally and internationally on issues and practices pertaining to: curriculum mapping, dynamic instruction, and 21st century strategic planning.

As I alluded to in the first post that started this thread, I think Rollei's popularity in the United States is a false way of gauging their overall health. There are many products that do well in the combined global market that don't do quite as well in the U.S., but that doesn't mean the manufacturer is struggling. My belief is that since Rollei does quite well in other regions, there should be no fear of their future compared to the other surviving MF players. Add to that the outstanding nature of the product, and I think it's a solid choice. That 16MP Phase One bundle is a screaming deal, too--although I'm salivating at what Rollei might unveil at Photokina this fall since partnerships seem to be driving the MF digital market right now.
[a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=67227\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a]
rollei is actually very solid, they are in good shape...they are a very small company (very small compared to the fame of their brand) and actually the MF cameras are now Franke&Heidecke and the rest (lenses, digicams,..) is rollei (i believe)....i don't think that they can come out with big surprises, but they have been a very steady leader in MF innovation for decades (integrated winders and meters and AF)
the rollei/phase partnership ended because phase made rollei buy a certain number of backs, becuase phase had to make the backs to fit the rollei, rollei (being a small company) did not really like the fact that they had to buy so many in advance, but it gave rollei the chance to cut the price to make this such a deal (even better now)...because of the rollei backside, the phase backs cannot be rotated (they tried to fit a phase P25 into the rollei 645 back but it did not work, phase would have had to re-design the whole housing...)
which is where sinar and the emotion comes in...rollei contacted sinar, they said no problem (their backs already work with the rollei) they buy the backs as they go along (which is why the deal is not so great) but there is a straight upgrade path...if you buy the emotion 22? you can upgrade to the 75 for the difference in price...
the P20/6008af bundle shoots 45-50! frames a minute at 16bit 50-400asa (800 half size) and can be used as a point&shoot (completely automatic with 3 metering modes and AF) at a price comparable to the "canonkiller" mamiya DSLR which cannot compete with the rollei...for the expansive system please refer to ebay and several dealers....
i really don't know why people are afraid...there must be more rolleis out there then mamiyas...they have been selling at a premium for decades and i never really heard stories (other then some technical problems with some early 6000s, i guess you can never get rid of a reputation...) of a bad product...and not to badmouth hasselblad, but my experience (and my experience as an assistant to many bigger and smaller photographers in NY) has been everything but good...thank god for the wide hasselblad rental service, because the equipment would fail, something would always fail, most of the people i worked for (not too many actually shot hasselblad, it was mostly RZ) had to have 2 complete set-ups, because one was always at the shop...a photographer compared it to ferrari, a great, fun but not dependable car(although i never saw the fun in hasselblad)....i never saw anything mamiya fail, never...and a story like the hasselblad zoom (at what...$7000?) falling apart? actually does not surprise me...but people are afraid of what might happen to rollei...nobody says that about leica...
look at the latest news: now canon and nikon do not build film cameras anymore...this does not kill leica, the contrary...kodak and fuji cut down on film production, no problem...labs switching to more digital services, great...there will always be a market for the 4x5 or 8x10 guy out there, a very specialized niche with great little niche products (probably a little more expensive)...leica will be there, voigtlander will be there, sinar will be there, rollei will be there....hasselblad will be there as well...the same guys who invented the whole thing and kept it going...becuase the people who build it and buy it don't look at the bottom line, otherwise they would have gotten out a looooong time ago, i don't think there was ever a moment when someone said, i want to get rich, i will make cameras using only the best materials and mechanics...

I agree with Paul and APLA is a good example.
For more than 6 month I am a happy owner of a 6008AF with a Phase One with a P20 back. So happened that it was not my first digital back. I have been a long time Hasselblad user and bought the eMotion22 Eyelike to supplement my 503 a year ago. It came with a V-mount adaptor and I was able to use it on my ALPA as well. Eyelike 22(Sinar) is a very solid product and after some weeks of struggling with the Eyelike capture pro software I was able to deliver good images (thank you Grant and all RG contributors for sharing your experience both with the back and software). Then a disaster happened, my son-in-law dropped my Alpa (with the back on!) while fiddling with it in the studio. I had to send it to Sinar to repare.
I live in Russia, there were no chances to fix the back in Moscow, almost zero rental market for digibacks and I was planning a trip to France to shoot an art and jewelry collection for a friend and client. I was almost ready to risk and bring my film cameras with me and even tried to rent a P25 back in Paris. They did not take me serious enough over the phone, demanded proofs of my residence in the EU. I felt fed up with been treated as a Russian crook, and after 2 days of telephone conversations I gave up and bought a Rollei 6008AF with P20db and 2 lenses in a Moscow shop. Yes, only 16m. pixels, square and no way to use on APLA. From some forum discussions I knew that I would not be able to upgrade from P20 and played with the idea that I would eventually sell it and use my trusted 503 with Eyelike and my extensive collection of glass.
Now I found myself left with 2 digital backs (eMotion came back from Switzerland with Sinar logos on it and a new screen) and P20 and Rollei. I have sold all my Hasselblad gear and lenses and feel good. I have a reliable and modern film and digital system, fine lenses and hopes to upgrade my 22m to Sinar 75 with live video. Sinar people assured me that Rollei has future and they will be working with Rollei together on new products. Jenoptik/Sinar/Rollei/Leica cooperation will bring new goods for Fotokina.
I share my studio with a commercial photographer and she has just bought her own Rollei/P20 combo and happy with her choice. She plans to use it alongside her Cannons for fashion and commercial work.

...there are currently several af lenses available: 50, 80,180, and one (or two?) zooms..the 90macro is coming this summer (in europe) fall in the US
Do you have further info about the AF Macro lens,
if it will remain 90mm focal length & APO,
or will it be 100mm instead (read that a while back on photo.net)

it will be the 100/3.5 symmar, my mistake...my opinion about the AF: reminds me of the old days with my nikon F4, when most of the lenses i owned were manual focus and i kept checking the focus giude in the finder..same with rollei...i don't think that AF in medium format really work (for me)...i use it more with my canon (if i use the canon) but even there i find myself having to compose around the focus points and that is way more anoying then focussing manually...rollei has some of the fastest lenses (a 80 2.0, 110 2.0, 180 2.
so i really is not that hard...
the only camera that i thought really had it worked out was a canon (film) camera with the eye-controlled focus...it really worked well (the focus was a little slow, but it was an inexpensive consumer body), i wonder what happend to that technology? i would love to see that in the next 1Ds mkIII?

I ordered a new 150/4 AF Tele-Xenar PQ lens which was announced a long time ago and was expected this spring. Still waiting. Now they are saying that the lens will be shipped before Fotokina. I am not sure that Rillei has an AF Apo-Symmar in the pipeline , it will be a nice surprise ! I agree that AF is too slow and the range of manual lenses covers all needs.

I have been shooting with a Rollei 6008 Integral for the past three years, and have been quite happy with the results. Prior to obtaining the Rollei, I tried a Hasselblad 203FE and a Contax 645, but chose to go with the Rollei 6008 platform. What attracted me to Rollei was the availability of the fast lenses from both Schneider and Zeiss. The 80mm 2.0 Schneider Xenotar, the Zeiss 110mm 2.0 Planar, and the 180mm 2.8 Schneider Tele Xenar are amongst my favorite lenses. Many of the Rollei lenses made by Zeiss have the same optical formula as the Zeiss lenses for Hasselblad. It is the bokeh that these German made lenses produce that give the images that different punch so to speak. Furthermore, with the Rollei 6008 film inserts, I can change a roll of 120 film and be advanced to the first frame of a new roll in about 12 seconds. It would be extremely difficult to do that with any other medium format system.
With the new Sinar emotion digital back now available with the Rollei 6008AF, digital shooters now have a tool that will compete with the best digital backs out there.
For that person who was trying to get a diopter for a Rollei 45 degree prism, Martin at Marflex in New Jersey has them available or Robert White (
) in Dorset has them available since he is now the Rollei distributor for the UK.

Ahhh the Great Rollie!
The Rollie 6008 was my first professional system out of High School. I had Pentax 67's and the only thing that could come close was the 6008 in lens speed. I had the 50/2.8 - 80/2.0 - 180/2.8 and other macro and long lenses. You couldn't beat the quality of the glass and the laminar draw slide was brilliant!
My main problem was the battery was a pain in the butt with no other option. So I had to carry around six batteries two chargers and a car charger. Also, this was before eBay in the early mid 90's and I coudln't pick up a second body for less than $6k! Now I could buy three bodies for that price. They are built like tanks. but as anything with tiny electronics in it. It will fail at some point. Especially the way commercial shooters man handle things.
So I am on a job in Venezuela and the body just stops working. Now this has since happened with my RZ but I always had a second body in the bag as well as with my Contax and always had two bodies of any system I used. Other than Pentax where seven bodies were in order. On this trip my Rollie went down in the middle of the jungle with no 35mm body or any other body with me ( I know stupid). Major job as well for a world wide campaign shooting at Angel Falls. So we went down to the little town and met with the local portrait guy. What does he have? A mint museum quality Mamiya RB set up with every lens I could want and every accs made for it. So after some convincing (thank GOD i speak Spanish) he loaned it to me. I left him my Rollie and came back two days later. Prior to this experience I was not the biggest Mamiya fan. But after that I switched to everything RZ. Took a little getting use to, but what doesn't.
I would LOVE to see Rollie come back. The lenses are great! The view finder is Awesome with prism or not. I did try the AF version and it SUCKED! The autofocus was slower than my GA645i. But if they could get a rotating back on there I would consider that system. The guys at Marflex in early 90's were awesome.
I really use the auto focus on my H1 and have discovered the custom functions that let me assign a button to autofocus, I still use my RZ on occasion with my digital 22mp back from the H1 adapted with a plate from Eco Digital. The H1 was the lesser of two evils and it still has yet to fail me. I drove over to Hassy in Jersey and they did the software upgrade in about 15 minutes. Got out of the city for a few hours and felt like I was on vacation.
Rollies marketing in the US does suck, the rental stock is non existant. So that does make a difference. I too like to own all my gear, but there are those rare pieces that you may want to call in for one or two days.
It would be great for a group to buy Sinar, Rollie, Lieca and combine the best of them all and make a killer system. Instead of Sinar wasting the millions on development that I am sure they spent on that horrid Modular attempt to go after the medium format sytems. They should have offered to work with Rollie and redevelop a new body to work with 645 chips. If the Germans can be third in the World Cup, then I am sure they can redesign the 6008AF a bit ;-). It could not be more expensive than an H1 set up or the Sinar Modular system. I am still waitiing to see what Mamiya comes out with at Photokina.
I still think that in a few years we will see some bigger chips with better ISO and noise handling but peaking at the MP wars.
Best of luck with your Rollie hunt. They are great systems other than the battery set up. But at least their lenses don't fall apart. I am sure the Schneider and Ziess glass is as good for digital as the Fujacon's. Plus if you go eMotion the dals chip is pretty damn nice! I used the Aptus 75 and was blown away at 800. Although Sinar only goes to 400.
Any billionairs out there that want to buy Sinar, Rollie, Leeca and Dalsa?

The Rollei 6008 bodies use a rechargable battery that provides approximately enough power for 35-40 rolls of 120 film. For most photo shoots, having a fully charged battery in the body and one extra fully charged battery is enough for probably most applications.
For extreme applications where one might be away from AC power for an extended period of time, there is available from Rollei a battery pack which uses 10 standard AA batteries, or the new battery box from Rollei which uses 5 DL 123 lithium batteries.

"But if they could get a rotating back on there I would consider that system."
They already do if you use the Sinar eMotion.
I wouldn't consider any other system and now that they do a battery charger that drains residual current before recharging you get a lot more shots, also bear in mind that the battery is powering the mirror and shutter only rather than pulling the film across the back. It lasts a lot longer before you have to change the battery.
Besides the fast lenses you also get the fast shutter speed of 1000s if you use PQS lenses.
A wonderful system!

U.S. 31 Restrictions Next Week
Near 161st Street in Westfield
156th Street Closing Tomorrow
WESTFIELD, Ind. – Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) contractors plan to restrict traffic next week on U.S. 31 approaching 161st Street for work on the new interchange bridge.
On Tuesday, May 28, the right lane of southbound U.S. 31 will be restricted to remove sheet piling from around the center pier of the bridge. The lane restriction will begin at 9 p.m. and is expected to end by 6 a.m. Wednesday.
On Thursday, May 30 at 9 p.m., the right lanes of northbound and southbound U.S. 31 approaching 161st Street will be restricted. Temporary traffic stops of up to 20 minutes at a time should be expected after midnight to allow crews to lift and set bridge beams into place. All restrictions are expected to end by 6 a.m.
Rieth-Riley, the state's contractor for the $58 million project, closed 161st Street on April 15 for a maximum of 120 days to construct the roundabout interchange. The contract will also build a split diamond interchange with ramps connecting 146th Street to the north with Greyhound Pass and 151st Street.
For the safety of motorists, 156th Street west of U.S. 31 will close on Friday, May 24 at 6 a.m. As construction of the new southbound U.S. 31 overpass continues, INDOT and contractors anticipate the overpass wall on the north side of 156th Street will obstruct a safe line of sight for traffic on eastbound 156th Street turning onto southbound U.S. 31. Access to private driveways and businesses will be maintained. Through traffic on 156th Street will be restored after U.S. 31 traffic is shifted to newly-constructed southbound lanes later this summer.
More information about The New U.S. 31 Hamilton County and details about how to receive project updates can be found online at us31hamiltoncounty.IN.gov.

text: He has first hand knowledge of the dangers of kick returns with Eric Legrand. However, there is serious danger in every play. Somebody is going to get killed at some point... What do we do about that? Quit playing the game? The players know or at least should know that they face serious injury or death everytime the ball is snapped. Most are paid a lot of money and all have the option to not play. I agree the game should be made as safe as possible, but there is soon coming a time where the known risks are apart of it due to the compensation they recieve. With that said, as long as the money keeps flying in the have no reason to do anything other than make the game as safe as possible.

There is a lot to do around the city of Accra! NYU will keep you informed about many great cultural events. Take advantage of everything from traditional Ghanaian theater and music to something to connect you with home.
Some of the best shopping can be found in the marketplaces. Make a day of your trip, as you might need the time. Try to have a good sense of what things cost before you buy. You will save yourself from getting ripped off.
Kaneshie Market
Makola Market
The Art Center
Wood-carving village in Aburi
The Harvest Festival in Cape Coast is where you get to see chiefs being carried on gold chairs. The whole city of Elmina is one big party during this time. Other times for celebration in Ghana are (believe it or not) funerals, when a person's life - rather than his or her death - is honored with family, friends, dancing and LOTS of food! If you are invited to a funeral, consider yourself honored. Traditional clothing for this occasion is black and red, and this would be a good time to visit a tailor who can make you an outfit fit for a funeral.
Go on all of the NYU trips. Not only are they fun and a great way for you to connect with fellow students, but they really help you explore Ghana, with trips to Cape Coast, the Kakum canopy walk, Kumasi, and Wli Falls.
Other ideas:
"Not sure what to do? Just ask around! While the Ghana travel guides are sometimes lacking, there is also a street magazine called Enjoy Accra. You will hear about most events through word-of-mouth and recommendations from locals. Ask your CRA's if you are feeling stuck!"
Football (soccer for the Americans) is huge in Ghana so go to a game at the new stadium in Accra to cheer for the Black Stars and witness the pride! There are also strange but interesting boxing events in Accra.
Accra is rich with music, and you can find an impromptu street performance anywhere you go or a true concert any night of the week. Try to see Hewale Sounds or John Collins perform while you are there. Besides local acts, there are often organized parties and shows at various embassies and conference centers (like Alliance Francaise and the British Council). A lot of American artists (Jay-Z, John Legend, Sean Paul, Ja Rule) come through Ghana, but they charge American prices!
Many people on the program have an interest in some sort of art, and can be seen painting, making music, filming, and photographing around the campus. Students have even gotten together to present an art show to showcase a range of spoken word, film, photo, and anything else they have worked on while being in Ghana.
Going to the theater in Ghana is fun, different, and usually outdoors. Concert parties are traditional performances that involve the audience members in the story telling. Attend shows at the W.E.B. DuBois Center and support the student productions at the University of Ghana, and be sure to attend a show at the grand National Theatre.

Leather Jackets Online Store with Over 14,000 Satisfied & Happy customers
Leather jacket is one the most important outerwear of one's wardrobe these days, having its roots from early (20th) century where they were made as a part of an aviator's uniform in the First World War and became popular winter outerwear for people in Europe and the US and became known as Bomber Jackets during the Second World War. The jackets were bought for bomber pilots to protect them against frigid temperature in the upper atmosphere because the early aircraft's were not insulated against inclement weather.
So these hulking and shealing jackets were highly prized for their warmth during frigid weather. During the last few decades of the 20th century, leather jackets and Celebsclothing gained a lot of popularity because they were endorsed in many forms by Hollywood celebrities and stars in early TV Series' such as Jimmy Stewart's Night passage, 1957, Gary Cooper's For Whom the Bell Tolls, Harrison Ford's costume in the Indiana Jones film series, Michael Pare's appearance in Eddie and the Cruisers in 1983 and 1989 and The Fonzie's TV series Happy days to name a few.
It also soon became a popular outfit choice among bikers due to its ability to withstand rain, cold and flying dust on the highway and gained notoriety by endorsements by alternative lifestyle brands like Harley Davidson, the American Indian and British riding bikes like Triumph, soon to become trendy outerwear among women as well more as a sign of a sex symbol than endurance and ruggedness. Since then, leather jackets have become an indispensable part of one's fashion statement just like the little black dress, gained reputation when fueled by pop culture and more liberated and changing gender roles.

The Springbrook High School football team spent an uncomfortable week off the field after forfeiting their only win of the season for using an ineligible player.
Under the lights Friday night in front of a home crowd, the focus was back on the field and the Blue Devils shined.
Quarterback Neiman Blain passed for two touchdowns and ran for two more and Springbrook shut out Montgomery Blair for three quarters en route to a 26-6 win.
"It's a resilient bunch," coach Adam Bahr said of the 1-3 Blue Devils (1-2 4A East Division). "We thought we had won a game, it got taken away from us. And then we played Sherwood close last week. You hear around school, people aren't happy. 'You guys are 0-3.'
"Instead of disenfranchising, we kind of pulled together. It's a beautiful thing. I'm so happy for the guys."
Blair, which trailed 20-0 before Darron Cumberbatch scored on the second play of the fourth quarter, falls to 2-2 (0-2). At halftime, the Blazers had amassed just over 50 yards of offense.
"They were just being very physical, and we need to be more physical," coach Andrew Fields said. "That's what it comes down to."
The Blue Devils scored on their first possession, going 55 yards in nine plays after a Blair punt.
Blain completed three passes on the drive and then covered the final nine yards himself on a run up the middle.
Later in the quarter he found Antonio Lee for an 11-yard score to make it 13-0. Blain finished the night with 102 yards passing.
Blair then mounted its best drive of the half, going from its own 35 to the Springbrook 5 before Raymond Burtnick's fourth down pass was broken up in the end zone by Sherwyn Benjamin.
"I think we were just playing assignment football where we preach 11 guys each do their job and it comes together," Bahr said of his defense. "We tackled well and I think we communicated well to help everybody know their assignment."
The Blazers lost the ball and their quarterback on the second play of the third quarter when Burtnick was sacked by Isaiah Eisendorf and fumbled.
Springbrook recovered and Burtnick was done for the night and Daymon Anderson took over.
"(It) could be a dislocated shoulder or some type or tendon strain," Fields said afterwords.
The Blue Devils drove, but appeared to be stalled when they went for it on fourth and 17 from the Blair 24. Blain barely avoided a sack around the 40 and dumped the ball off to running back Terrence Caudle at about the 25. Caudle broke several tackles and scored.
"We missed a lot of tackles and that's what I'm talking about when I say they were more physical then us," Fields said. "We weren't getting off blocks and doing a poor job of tackling."
In addition to the receiving touchdown, Caudle rushed 10 times for 72 yards.
After Cumberbatch, who was held to five yards on four carries in the first half, scored on a 14-yard run up the middle, Blair was within 20-6 with almost a full quarter to go.
The Blazers then intercepted a Blain pass and took over at their own 38, but four plays later Springbrook picked off an Anderson throw.
After four runs by Tyler Stewart gained 29 yards, Blain scored from three yards out.
Springbrook 26, Montgomery Blair 6
Blair (2-2) 0 0 0 6 — 6
Springbrook (1-3) 13 0 7 6 — 26
S — Neiman Blain 9-yard run (kick failed)

Product Information
- Monster High Ghouls Rule Draculaura from Mattel
- Part of the Monster High brand
- We recommend this product for ages 6 and up
What It Is
The characters from Monster High are starring in their first DVD movie, Monster High Ghouls Rule. Instead of staying home on Halloween, the Monster High gang is taking back the holiday and dressing in over-the-top costumes that commemorate their famous monster heritages. They call it "haunt couture."
The Ghouls Rule Draculaura doll is dressed in a pink, black, and white dress with large pink and black plastic wings and matching shoes. The doll also comes with a pink and black mask, a pink pumpkin bucket, a three-inch skeleton figure, and a hairbrush. The doll also has pink and black cobweb-inspired eye makeup.
Is It Fun?
As with all the other Monster High dolls, the new Ghouls Rule dolls have fabulous fashions and great detail. Monster High fans will like the new outfit for Draculaura and being able to play out the Halloween storyline from the new DVD.
Given the sophistication and elegance of the costumes, though, these dolls will appeal to collectors as well, and for kids they combine elements of play and display, which is what will appeal to girls who love the dolls but may not want to engage in younger fashion play.
As with all Monster High dolls, there's an element of humor in the storyline and the details of the clothes and accessories that really appeals to its fans.
Who It's For
Monster High Ghouls Rule Draculaura is for ages 6 and up.
What To Be Aware Of
Additional Ghouls Rule dolls include Frankie Stein, Cleo de Nile, and Clawdeen Wolf. Each is sold separately.
In addition to being gorgeous, these dolls and their storyline also have a message for kids: Everyone is different, and those differences should be celebrated. Delivering that message through the monster theme with style and wit has certainly contributed to the popularity of Monster High.

Who the hell is steve johnson?
Who the hell is steve johnson?
I just want to win.
Just shows how much the fans can't stand the Jets and their loudmouth douchebag of a coach. I can't see any other reason a "star" QB would be barely scraping by an offensive lineman...
Why tempt a curse?

"The problem with internet quotes lies in verifying their authenticity."
-Abraham Lincoln
Well we know Jake is tough as nails, so even if The Curse injures him, we know he can still play through it. On the other hand, if Sanchez gets cursed he won't be able to play and Mark Brunell will come in and perform better. So maybe we should rather have Jake win the vote.

Culture, history and tasty fish soup: Marseille can offer any tourist a pleasant stay in France's most important port.
Marseille is the second biggest city in France, and has a large number of sights. You can get a sample by visiting the Cathédrale de la Major, the Notre Dame de la Garde , the Basilique Saint-Victor, the Palails Longchamp and the Château d'If, a castle situated on an island that used to be a prison.
The old harbour, built by the Greeks, is now a marina and fishing port. It has a large number of fish restaurants where you can try the local fish soup, better known as bouillabaisse. There is also the Hôtel de Ville, the former town hall that was built in the 17th century. The entrance to the old port is still protected by two forts, which have survived from the past. The most interesting street in Marseilles is Canebière, a lively street with a large number of cafés and restaurants.
One of the most popular day trips to do near Marseille is an excursion to the splendid calanques of Cassis, which are spectacular rocky inlets and are also called the Mediterranean fjords. If you prefer to remain close to the city, you can walk along the Corniche, where you will find some popular beaches such as Le Prophète, Le Prado or Les Catalans.

Interpretive Handbook
30320 :
Fetomaternal Bleed, New York
Clinical Information Discusses physiology, pathophysiology, and general clinical aspects, as they relate to a laboratory test
In hemolytic disease of the newborn, fetal red cells become coated with IgG alloantibody of maternal origin, directed against an antigen on the fetal cells that is of paternal origin and absent on maternal cells. The IgG-coated cells undergo accelerated destruction, both before and after birth. The clinical severity of the disease can vary from intrauterine death to hematological abnormalities detected only if blood from an apparently healthy infant is subject to serologic testing.
Pregnancy causes immunization when fetal red cells possessing a paternal antigen foreign to the mother enter the maternal circulation, an event described as fetomaternal hemorrhage (FMH). FMH occurs in up to 75% of pregnancies, usually during the third trimester and immediately after delivery. Delivery is the most common immunizing event, but fetal red cells can also enter the mother's circulation after amniocentesis, spontaneous or induced abortion, chorionic villus sampling, cordocentesis, or rupture of an ectopic pregnancy, as well as blunt trauma to the abdomen.(1)
Rh immune globulin (RhIG, anti-D antibody) is given to Rh-negative mothers who are pregnant with an Rh-positive fetus. Anti-D antibody binds to fetal D-positive red cells, preventing development of the maternal immune response. RhIG can be given either before or after delivery. The volume of FMH determines the dose of RhIG to be administered.
Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
Determining the volume of fetal-to-maternal hemorrhage for the purposes of recommending an increased dose of the Rh immune globulin
Interpretation Provides information to assist in interpretation of the test results
Greater than 15 mL of fetal red blood cells (RBC) (30 mL of fetal whole blood) is consistent with significant fetomaternal hemorrhage (FMH).
A recommended dose of Rh immune globulin (RhIG) will be reported for all specimens. One 300 mcg dose of RhIG protects against a FMH of 30 mL of D-positive fetal whole blood or 15 mL of D-positive fetal RBCs. Recommended standard of practice is to administer RhIG within 72 hours of the fetomaternal bleed for optimal protective effects. The effectiveness of RhIG decreases beyond 72 hours post-exposure but may still be clinically warranted. This assay has been validated out to 5 days post collection.
Cautions Discusses conditions that may cause diagnostic confusion, including improper specimen collection and handling, inappropriate test selection, and interfering substances
Clinical conditions exist that may result in an increased level of fetal hemoglobin-containing red cells, including hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin and thalassemia. Such red cells (also referred to as F cells) are detected by this assay. Results must be interpreted with caution in these situations.
This test is not used to detect the hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (see HPFH / Hemoglobin F, Red Cell Distribution, Blood).
Reference Values Describes reference intervals and additional information for interpretation of test results. May include intervals based on age and sex when appropriate. Intervals are Mayo-derived, unless otherwise designated. If an interpretive report is provided, the reference value field will state this.
< or =1.5 mL of fetal RBCs in normal adults
Clinical References Provides recommendations for further in-depth reading of a clinical nature

What is the best way to say contact info in Spanish (as in a list of phone numbers, email addresses, postal addresses, etc. of a person or business)?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Spanish Language Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for students, teachers, and linguists wanting to discuss the finer points of the Spanish language. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Usually "Información de contacto"
But you don't ask somebody else for his/her "Información de contacto"! You have to ask for a particular item, as in: "Me puedes dar tu número telefónico?"
If you want a literal translation, "información de contacto". As in ¿Cuál es tu información de contacto?. But more likely to go with "¿Cuál es tu número de teléfono?"
I have heard this referred to, collectively, as datos, although that's really a broader term, and can refer to birth date, height, social security number, or any other data about a person.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
A friend of mine in Effingham, IL and I were talking about a month ago about his upcoming tournament "Crossroads Classic" and how we could create more interest in the event. This is a PDGA C tier and a fund raising event (American Cancer Society). We came up with the idea to have it also be a club challenge. Any club that was interested was welcome to participate in the challenge in addition to playing in the tournament. The rules are simple - each club brought a case of beer iced down in a plastic bucket. The club with the fewest number of players would be the number of players used from each club. In other words: one club had 5 players, our club had 12 so the best five scores from our club were taken. The club with the best score at the end of the tournament won all of the beer and a cool trophy for the whole club. Last year this tournament had 33 participants. This year it had 77. There were 5 clubs participating in the challenge (Effingham Disc Golf Evangelists, Centralia Disc Golf Club, Southern Illinois Disc Golf Club, Ace Eagle Disc Golf Club - from Evansville, IN and Crossroads Disc Golf Club from Terre Haute, IN). In the end Crossroads Disc Golf Club won by 1 stroke over two other clubs and more importantly the tournament was a huge success. The TD is a real class act and I believe the tournament would have grown without the club challenge but I also feel that it created a nice buzz for the event.

Get Hammered !!! :D
I'm sure it did create a nice buzz for the event with all that beer lol. Loved watching all the trash talk before the event to, good job Crossroads.
totally rad
Imagine that, beer and disc golf....who' d have thought that would work out...;)
