text: Core Curriculum Le Moyne's Core Curriculum is central to our Catholic and Jesuit mission of graduating students who are educated in the liberal arts and sciences, passionately curious, and actively engaged in the promotion of peace and justice in their personal and professional lives. Le Moyne graduates are committed to building and serving the world in dynamic, principled and generous ways. Inspired by the signature Jesuit quest to seek God in all things, the Core fosters an understanding of knowledge as a means to service and leadership in an interdependent world. Through the Core sequence, students develop knowledge and skills across multiple disciplines and the confidence to engage in intellectual inquiry as members of a global community. Their liberal education empowers students to explore diverse ways of knowing; to appreciate cultural and artistic expression; to understand the moral, ethical, and political frameworks essential to making fair and just decisions; and to pursue new intellectual experiences as integral to the life-long process of self transformation.

Its interdisciplinary approach, global emphasis, and inclusion of mathematics and science reflect international trends in liberal arts education. While it follows exciting developments in higher education in some ways, Le Moyne's core curriculum is distinctive in other ways. 1. A Thorough and Comprehensive Writing sequence Le Moyne's core curriculum ensures that students have ample opportunity to develop their academic and career-relevant writing skills. In the first year, students develop and practice the critical writing skills that are necessary for success in college. Next, they refine and enhance their skills through a three-course, writing-instructional sequence in Philosophy, History, and English. In addition, students develop and practice discipline-specific skills in a writing-intensive course within their academic majors. 2. Small Classes Up Front In their first years at Le Moyne, students take small, seminar-style Core classes with talented and dedicated professors. These early Core courses focus on development of skills, discovery of intellectual passions, and creation of academic community. By providing careful, personal attention, these classes genuinely educate the whole person. 3. From the Basic to the Complex Given the complex issues facing the world today, interdisciplinary learning is essential and Le Moyne's core curriculum provides it. In the first two years, students establish solid foundation knowledge in History, Philosophy, English, Religious Studies, and Natural and Social Sciences. In the junior year, students build on that foundation through interdisciplinary courses that explore how different ways of knowing affect intellectual inquiry. In the senior year, trans-disciplinary capstone courses consider contemporary issues and challenge students to address them from various disciplinary perspectives. 4. The Core's Bookends Le Moyne's core curriculum includes both a first-year Transitions seminar and a senior Transformations capstone. These two courses bookend the Le Moyne experience by introducing students to college in an exciting, intellectually provocative seminar and by preparing them for life after college in a capstone course that synthesizes their learning. These companion experiences represent one of the ways that Le Moyne strives to fulfill the Jesuit mission to educate the whole person. Click here to download the Distinctive Elements brochure. Return to the top of the page Bookends of Le Moyne's Core Curriculum COR 100: Transitions The first-year seminars introduce students to academic life at the college level. They are organized around a "big idea" and designed to invite students into collegiate learning. The Transitions seminars give first-year students immediate access to our very best teachers engaging their most compelling materials and newest research. Many Transitions seminars include field trips that deepen learning and build relationships. In addition to local excursions, several classes travel to New York City to visit museums and monuments related to their semester's study. These "outside the classroom" experiences are an integral part of the Transitions course design.

They emphasize contemporary social, scientific, artistic, and technological ways of understanding and being in the world. Given the complexity of today's world, Transformations courses always include interdisciplinary perspectives and are often team-taught. They mirror the common experience in many endeavors today where collaboration between experts in various fields is the rule rather than the exception. The McDevitt Center sponsors an ongoing set of Transformations courses organized in relationship to public lectures arranged by the McDevitt-Core Professor. These courses involve students in the activities of Le Moyne's prestigious McDevitt Center while also providing them with a distinguished COR 400 experience. The first McDevitt-Core Professor, Dr. Jennifer Glancy, is preparing a lecture series and course entitled, Transfiguration and Other Metamorphoses: The Future of Being Human.

Return to the top of the page The Core Curriculum for the Class of 2017 & after The new core requirements described above apply only for students in the Class of 2017 and after. The specific requirements are available through the student's degree audit (or program evaluation) on Webadvisor and described in the appropriate College catalog (www.lemoyne.edu/catalog). Please contact your academic advisor or the Registrar's office (www.lemoyne.edu/Registrar) if you have questions about your core requirements. Study Abroad Because Le Moyne's Core is global in nature, students are encouraged to study abroad when possible. The Core Director works with students and their advisors to facilitate such direct immersion in other cultures. Students wishing to satisfy a core-curriculum requirement while abroad should consult with their academic advisor and the Core Director well in advance of their intended semester abroad. Transfer Students Like all matriculated students, transfer students must complete Le Moyne's core curriculum. The intent of the core program for transfer students is to ensure the integrity of a Le Moyne education while acknowledging the importance of flexibility when transferring credits from other institutions. Transfer students should speak with Le Moyne's office of admissions which will help them to gain maximum credit for college work already completed. Return to the top of the page The Core Curriculum for the Class of 2016 & before The information below this point applies for students in the Class of 2016 and before. Core Requirements Core requirements are available through the student's degree audit (or program evaluation) on Webadvisor and described in the appropriate College catalog (www.lemoyne.edu/catalog). Please contact your academic advisor or the Registrar's office (www.lemoyne.edu/Registrar) if you have questions about your core requirements. Transfer Students and the Core Like all matriculated students, transfer students must complete the common core curriculum at Le Moyne. They may use transfer credit to fulfill a core requirement when the transfer course is equivalent to the core course. In addition, transfer students may use up to two humanities courses that are not deemed equivalent to core courses to substitute for up to two core courses in two different humanities departments. Students who apply transfer credits to core requirements must, however, nonetheless complete at least one core course at Le Moyne in each of the humanities: English, history, philosophy, and religious studies. This is commonly called the residency requirement. Students who have transferred to the college and who are approaching their senior year should keep this requirement in mind as they choose their final courses.

An important collection of 24 Wedgwood and Bentley basalt portrait medallions featuring the Kings of England, all set in a lovely frame. The first basalt portrait medallions appeared around 1771, introduced as a novel and less expensive way to create portraits of royals and wealthy patrons. These early depictions proved so popular, Wedgwood began creating magnificent series of popes, philosophers, writers, saints and, of course, the English kings. Collectors amassed varieties of these basalt gems, displaying them in ornate cabinets or elegant frames. They were even used as architectural embellishments in the home. Medallions remained immensely popular until the turn of the 19th century. Large, pristine sets, such as this, depicting such popular subjects, are incredibly rare and desirable. Each medallion is marked "Wedgwood and Bentley."

En español l Crowded waiting rooms, jam-packed schedules, doctors too harried to really listen to their patients — such complaints abound whenever there's talk about medical care.
But what may come as a surprise to many health care consumers is that these criticisms are expressed not just by patients but by doctors as well, and many are seeking a solution in what's called "concierge medicine."
In this type of medical practice (also called boutique medicine, retainer-based medicine or direct care), doctors — mainly in primary care — see fewer patients so they can spend more time with ones they do see.
For their part, patients pay an out-of-pocket fee that typically ranges from several hundred dollars to $15,000 annually. In addition to longer visits, patients receive a comprehensive annual physical examination, a commitment to shorter waits and, in many cases, the doctor's cellphone number and email address so they can get in touch quickly.
Concierge medicine is not a substitute for health insurance. The retainer, no matter how steep, does not cover out-of-office visits to specialists, emergency room care, hospitalization, major surgery or high-tech diagnostic tests, such as CT scans and MRIs. The fee is not reimbursed by either private health insurance or Medicare, although patients' health savings accounts may cover some of the cost.
Concierge medicine comes in nearly as many flavors as does ice cream. In some practices, patients pay an annual fee and also pay for office visits; in others the annual fee pays for all in-office care. In what's called a hybrid practice, the doctor continues to see all patients but sets aside a few hours each day for patients who pay an extra fee. Some practices bill for insurance reimbursement; others have gone off the insurance grid.
Doctors who switch to concierge care say they do so because they're frustrated with ever-rising overhead costs and flat or reduced insurance reimbursements. They also say the only way to keep afloat these days is to see more patients and spend less time with each one, what some doctors call "assembly line medicine."
Critics of concierge medicine say they're concerned that if many doctors choose this type of medical practice, the result will be fewer doctors to go around, leaving it increasingly difficult for patients, especially lower-income ones, to find a doctor.
Some critics also worry about the impact on patients' health. "We know that concierge medicine works on the convenience side," says cardiologist Harlan Krumholz, professor of medicine at Yale University. "But we don't know if it's a good model on the science side. Getting more care doesn't actually mean getting better care." It's possible that concierge care could lead to overtreatment and overtesting, neither of which benefits the patient.

I started welding with 6011 stick when I was on a crew traveling around building grain elevators, welded with stick for a year and then my boss introduced me to mig welding in his garage shop. I decided to get out if the elevator construction and keep my feet on the ground while welding so now I have been mig welding in a shop building side dump trailers for the last year and a half.

A little over 30 yrs ago, I was laying on a straw bale in the bottom of a mudhole repairing a split in an underground waterline to a center pivot. (Manufacturing defect in the pipe, of course almost on the bottom.) The owner of the ranch drove up and asked, "Where did you learn to weld." My response, "Places like this ditch." Then he invited me to lunch at his house. Life was good. And I was nearly done with the repair before the straw bale caught fire.
Now that's a story...

Here is some history if anyone feels like reading.
Summary - Learned to weld at 7yrs old.
Long history of welders/iron workers in the family. Grandfather is a welder and was still welding well up into his late 70s. He set the antenna on the Hemisphere Tower in San Antonio and help build the Pecos river high bridge. I don't have a clue what all else he got to work on. He was VERY well known at the Potash mines as well. Many years later I worked at the mines one summer and some of the guys out there would tell me how well they liked my grandfather. Father was a welder from a young age, constructed some power plant in Corpus Christi, TX and worked as an iron worker in Minnesota for a while. He use to tell of how they would climb the vertical columns bolt bag on and all by hand with no ladders to get up to where the crane was setting the next beams. And though I will never try it, he mentioned they would skip down the bar joists jumping from one to the next to get down to the other end of the building. I found out the hard way my first time walking them, you don't stop on a 60ft bar joist that doesn't have bridging in place (lots of swaying when you stop in the middle for a moment).
My father was always really busy, was running his own welding business when I came around. When I was 7 yrs old he had a shop hand show me how to strick an arc with 6010. By 10 I was also getting familiar with oxy/acet cutting torch, although cutting a long straight line was still out of the question.
At 14 I started working for my dad at the shop every summer. Was cutting scrap iron to sell off making $3.25hr. Would fill a semi trailer using a backhoe and after it was full with a few tons they would haul it off to be sold. Spent alot of time as a welding helper going to rigs to help out with well heads. Got to work as a swamper a few times. There isn't much out there harder than loading a backhoe bucket up with drilling mud using a shovel. Went out on several jobs to help out and install gas/mud seperators.
Got to go out to rigs as the welder a few times doing small jobs like tacking collars, welding the flange back on the pipe for the rat hole, and once got to cap a conductor pipe. Of course it always would be on a friday afternoon when no other welders could be reached and I would be the one working till sun up saturday. One of the shop hands would always go with me who knew how to get to the rig and would talk to the rig hands and get the ticket signed since I wasn't even 18 at the time.
When I was 17 worked as an iron worker/welder putting up a bank in NM. That was my first time getting to walk iron and never was a day boring. The crane operator foreman was actually a foreman for my dad long ago, so it had a lot of meaning to it as well. Carrying 200ft of welding lead across beams was always a rush since you had to make sure the cable didn't get hung up and pull you off. Wasn't really any way to be tied off when walking the iron or at least none of the welders I was working with were until they sat down to start welding. Welded in a LOT of bridging that summer. Was at that job till we completed the roof. When the roof was going on that job was miserable since even with a wide brim hard had, the top of my ears would blister from the reflection off the roof.
That was one of my favorite welding jobs. Got to slide down the beams at break and eat lunch in the banks cement valt (irony) to be in the shade.
That job welding and hanging iron I was making minimum wage.
At 18, before senior year in high school I spent the summer at the Potash mines during a summer pre-shutdown. Got to help replace rusted out beams and make a temparary brace support for a 300' conveyor belt line that had dropped almost 6". Of course they couldn't stop the conveyor belt while we straddled it putting in supports in the tunnel, they said they could only run a courser form of potash so it wasn't so dusty. It got so bad in there you couldn't see light at the end of the tunnel. By lunch every day I could pour 2 cups of potash out of my bolt bag. It was basically raining potash all day long. Some places were rusted so bad when I would stand in the webbing of the beams I'd have to kick the rust off the bottom of the beam to make sure I wouldn't step through and I could break the bolts off with my hand. I'd get to use air-chisels and replace bolts at times.
My last year I worked in the shop more with an older gentleman building stock for around the tank batteries. Several times there would be 3 or 4 of us working all afternoon and into the next morning making cuttings boxes (box with no top and 1 end open) for the rigs. +20ft long by around 8ft wide by 6ft high (big enough for a backhoe to scoup stuff out) 5/8" plate, jet rod and 7018 all the way. We'd have it loaded on trailer with a roustabout 5 ton wench truck by 8am.
Then went off to college and now the welding it just a hobby.
Thanks for taking the time to relay that story. My dad has some interesting stories about him & his dad too. They sure don't make them like that anymore. We've all gone kinda soft...

Learning to weld
I learned from my Dad first, he is now 83 years young and still welds to this day. When I was in high school I took a metal shop class. That helped, but I didn't have the desire. Five years ago I borrowed a friends welder and found out I enjoyed the time I spent welding. Bought my own equipment and I use it as a hobby for stress relief.
God bless him. I'll bet he can still run a good bead too.

Our New World Order
I propose that our world has reached the point of being able to transcend the capitalist verses the communist, the entrepreneurial verses the socialist debate. I say we can do this if we seize upon one of the most central insights about our nature as human beings--that we are creative and noble creatures, in essence.
What if our paradigm for "success" is transformed from material accumulation for the individual or private interest to creative contribution to all humanity? Is this possible? Are we there yet?
You may respond to this idea generally, considering only its proposition in these three short paragraphs, or you may check out its more nuanced presentation at my Facebook pager here:
edward long
Nov 14 2012: The current world order is the product of the human heart. Greed, malice, envy, strife, corruption, selfishness, ignorance, apathy, etc. etc. The blueprint for a new world order must include turning people's hearts from evil to good. Consider the implications of mankind being genuinely motivated by love; joy; peace; patient endurance; gentleness; goodness; and faith. Our myriad problems will not be solved by awakening some innate nobility lying dormant within us. Nor will we find deliverance in organized religion. Those are what got us here. The problem is spiritual, not natural. The solution must be other than some natural, biological ability. Mankind must seek God while he can be found. Changed hearts come only from the maker of hearts who is God. Time is running out. Thank you!
- +2
Nov 14 2012: There IS an underlying spiritual philosophy behind this concept of a new world order. Basically, it is posited on the spiritual reality of mankind's Triune nature, as Creative, Communal, and Joyful. The creative aspect has been traditionally expressed in materialistic innovation driven by capitalism; the communal has been expressed by mankind's stubborn socialistic aspirations. The joyful--well, in the various ways people have found exuberance and celebration of life.
What I am getting at here is a holistic treatment of our spiritual natures, so that we can regain balance and harmony.
Nov 14 2012: Thank you. It was not clear that your idea includes something beyond humanism. Again, best wishes in changing mankind's current collision course. No surrender!Nov 14 2012: I agree with Edward Long, laws can not change human hearts (if it could, crimes, racism and sexism would have ended); what is needed is attitudinal change. Which is a function of change from the heart.
Nov 15 2012: I feel that the human survival instinct trumps everything else. Once survival is in question, the human being regresses to whatever behavior is necessary to secure it. Therefore if we remove our more primitive social systems posited around the need for survival which might entail competition with our fellow human beings, the more nobler aspects of our nature will be freed up. And we are potentially a very noble race indeed...
Gail .
Nov 14 2012: I believe that we may still attain a new world order in our lifetime. Unbridled optimism? Maybe. But there is growing evidence for my view.
- +1
There is a spontaneously developing movement towards awareness that we noble creatures are the creators of our own realities. Many of us use specific methods to manifest our desires into our realities. This makes us invulnerable to the machinations of others. I don't know when we will reach the tipping point, but there are already enough to keep the ideal alive no matter what happens to the bulk of the human population.
Part of the worldview that empowers us is the awareness that we are one being and that the separation that you see between us is an illusion. It is a view that is supported by quantum mechanics and even more recent studies into the nauture of "mind". The people who have discovered how POWERFUL they are individually are a gentle people who do not fear lack, thus they do not need to rape and pillage the earth or others through mindless consumption or otherwise.
As an aside, you misuse the word "capitalism" in your essay. The USA is not capitalist because government subsidizes businesses in so many ways.
Nov 14 2012: I actually also hold that all human being are mystically connected into one. Here is an excerpt from my Facebook:
To understand how we are images of our Creator, we must understand His Trinitarian nature. God is Father, Son, and Spirit--three persons in one inseparable and single Nature. Hear O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One (Deuteronomy 6:4). Then God said, Let us make man in Our own image (Genesis 1:26). So how can many persons yet be one?
This is the great destiny of our human race. To be, like God, a multitude of persons in one nature. God has for us such a seamless and wonderful unity forged in Love, that we are indeed to be as immutable as He.Nov 19 2012: Mr. Long:
"The current world order is the product of the human heart. Greed, malice, envy, strife, corruption, selfishness, ignorance, apathy, etc. etc."
This is absolute nonsense and wrong, IMHO.
Then you claim, "Changed hearts come only from the maker of hearts who is God."
Well, according to you He already made them and he made them evil. This makes no sense to me at all.
Apparently there is no one on this earth who has love in their heart, a lack of greed, who stay away from envy, who are not corrupt, selfish, ignorant (ignorant of their own evil, yours, or so ignorant that they are not in reality, greedy, malicious, corrupt, selfish, apathetic, etc., etc. because they are completely unaware of anything?
You go on to say, "Our myriad problems will not be solved by awakening some innate nobility lying dormant within us."
Of course they will be, because that nobility is within us. THAT is how we were created (if we were created at all).
That is the essence of the human being, the human heart, the human spirit, psyche and being.
It will be done by people, people who are alive and living in whatever times they are alive and living!
It won't be done by you. You will only judge it seems.
You are a very intelligent person I believe. Educated, learned, knowledgeable, smart. Much more than I for sure.
But to so easily and cavilerally condemn the human being, their hearts and lives cancels all that you seem to know, to me at least. Sorry.Nov 18 2012: Hi Roger,
Great Idea!
We have been able to transcend from capitalism et al for some time, but it has not happened - and the underlying question is why not?
Interestingly, we are soon approaching a time (less than 50 years, so within one lifetime now I expect), that unless we 'transcend' we are very likely to come very unstuck as a race.
Cameron's ideas are just there to get him and his party re-elected, within our political system (UK), even he can do practically nothing to really change the course of politics, economics or culture (and he quite frankly has been very poor at even at the simple bits that he can influence). Ask yourself when was the last time politics made a real fundamental change to our way of life in the UK, (answer: introduction of NHS in 1949).
The answer to the question of why we have not transcended, and why we will find it extremely difficult to do so is 'Nature's Survival Function' it is quite simple, but we do not take it into account. I am not a pessimist, but we need to understand what we face and the size of the problem if we are to have any chance of doing it before Nature does it for us.

Childish Economics
JPNov 18 2012: The main problem with creativity is in who gets the credit. Anyone who invents or improves an idea within a company or corporation, the company or corporation has full rights to any patents and the person developing the change sees little to no benefit. This is counterproductive to innovation. The company CEO and the investors take all the booty while you still struggle to manage your affairs. All the while, the person who does little to succeed in the company gets all the same wage benefits that you do. Eventually, you say what the Fu@& am I doing this for and you shut down.
I was in the navy. I learned as much as I could. When I found myself doing preventative maintenance while my comrades were out on liberty, I realized that I had shot myself in the foot. They were getting the same pay as me, but I was doing more of the work. When they asked me if I wanted to re-enlist, I was cordial in how I said "take this job and shove it". Fortunately my knowledge paid off, but only because I had the patience and foresight to see past the present condition. Not all people have that luxury. It's a growing problem, and it isn't going away anytime soon under the present conditions.
According to an article in "Air and Space" magazine, the reason that the United States won the space race wasn't because we were better. It is because the Russian engineers who were responsible for setting the Russians ahead were not given credit for their contribution. They stopped cooperating for lack of recognition and resolved to just do their job. Forget the 110% that they were doing before. That problem is growing fast in this country.
Nov 18 2012: In both the American and Russian cases you cite, the problem was the same-- lack of proper heroic acknowledgment. In the corporate case, due to proprietary restrictions and private ownership in a capitalist system. In the Russian case, due to lack of proper individual credit given. But this is all the more reason why a proper heroic cultural structure is important. Much productivity can flow from the people, if their culture offered them a proper heroic system of acknowledging their human creative nature and if their culture guaranteed them the opportunity to produce without fear of survival, thus honoring their noble natures.
Nov 18 2012: You have the right answer, but that is a lot of IFs. How do we get the bean counters to buy into it when personal gain is the only motive? There are people who would destroy the earth just to get their own way.
I think it requires a return to spirituality. People have to see past their own selfish motives.
Nov 18 2012: True indeed. This is why I feel it is a process which must start with a re-invigoration of our youth. Check out the youth arm of my New American Spring concept. Here, I am attempting to reform our youth into heroic warriors, transforming our very society into this human heroic paradigm through generations:
http://www.newamericanspring.org/second_arm.htmNov 18 2012: I looked at your web site. It appears that you want to reunite people with political involvement and not just remain in the sidelines. When people disconnect, they take what is handed to them but don't have any say in what is handed to them by their own choice of not getting involved.
I wrote a book that attempts to bridge the gap between science and religion. I found the controversy between the two counterproductive to spiritual development. Although science has brought great strides in helping us to understand the world, it has disconnected us from the spiritual domain that unites us as one in the cosmic rhythm that brought us all into this world. Religion itself helped to create this disconnect by establishing doctrines that are based on fear, steeped in misconceptions that lead us away from, rather than closer to the source of creation. By exposing the misconceptions, I attempt to bring the reader to an awareness where spiritual experience can re-ignite our sense of wonder about our place in the cosmos. this was my contribution based on a lifelong research into the nature of religion and why it is failing us. The people who have read it claim that it makes you think. You may find it useful in helping youth find hope in a world that seems to be falling apart. The name of the book is "The Merging of Two Worlds". You can review it on my website;
http://scienceandreligionconverging.comNov 16 2012: Well, I think we already realize we're creative, noble creatures. The disagreements come over how we should organize ourselves to use our creativity, for example, communists think we will use our creativity best under communism, capitalists under capitalism, etc. Funny enough, both systems have been successful here and there. China has been successful as a communist country, America as a capitalist country. So really, why do we need to debate?
Nov 20 2012: You can't say China has been successful as a communist country until you have freedom of speech and basic liberties. Otherwise, the people will not be able to truly respond to their reality. I saw a recent report, for example, of how the new Chinese president's family is doing their best to hide their true INCOME-- purported to be much higher than what they should be entitled to under the communist system.
As long as our world remain locked in its SURVIVALIST mentality, there will always be greed and wealth inequality and states of worldly affairs unhealthy to the true well being of the people.
I'd rather say that Communism and Capitalism has BOTH failed. Because our human dignity calls for a basic right to the world's resources for all, and a liberal interpretation of human creativity and meaningful productivity.

Nov 20 2012: Well, I've not spent any time in China, Roger, so I don't know if the people have freedom of speech and basic liberties. our media suggest that they don't, but i take what the media say with a grain of salt--the most powerful thing is to see for yourself. But it seems possible to me that what a chinese person would consider freedom of speech and basic liberties might be different from what you or I, Americans, would. For a Chinese person, they may believe they have sufficient freedom of speech or sufficient basic liberties, or, like i say, what those things mean there might be different than here. For example, don't chinese people really value etiquette and propriety? So they might be more careful about freedom of speech than we would.

When I said that china is a successful country, i meant the country continues, it's not wracked by major protests, its citizens are not starving in the streets. If the people were terribly unhappy i believe they would rise up. therefore i conclude they are somewhat happy.
well, if the chinese president has amassed great income, i don't know that that would mean communism has failed, it could be one corrupt individual. sooner or later corrupt individuals get found out.Nov 14 2012: Generally, I agree with your notion of where we are heading, but I do not think we are there yet.
We evolved to be selfish and put our own family before other families and put our own tribe before other tribes.
It will be many years before we develop a global culture that we are all one family.
Nov 14 2012: I strongly feel that our selfishness is rather the consequence of what I understand to be out SURVIVALIST world environment, at the moment. We have to work hard to eek out a living, and resources are scarce, so we polarize. But this is why I feel technological critical mass is necessary for us to step out of this old survivalist mode into our true potential of a noble human family based on material provision for all, and creative exuberance for the glory of our noble race...Nov 14 2012: Or else is this a return to traditional values - Perhaps as demonstrated in the Highlands of New Guin...
Nov 14 2012: I wouldn't be surprised if elements of this new world order vision has been expressed, as it were, piecemeal, on the world stage before. This would only be natural in that human nature is human nature. What I am proposing here is a comprehensive and right return to our full and balanced nature, as only our present world environment can afford due to technological critical mass, which frees us from the drudgery of material survival--as long as we can escape the old selfish nature derived from our survivalist past...

The scope of this question is particularly bothersome to me. I like the way that Paula has discussed the inside-out phenomenon that many believe in where we all take care of the kids in our classroom and that creates a panacea for bad teaching in other rooms. I especially like this comment:
It is time to stop hiding incompetence and start demanding excellence from all of us.
It fascinates me that school leaders (teachers and administrators) talk about "transformational leadership" in education and continue to coddle teachers that are downright ineffective, lazy, and do an outstanding job of holding kids back. Maybe we need to stop and relax our herculean grip on collaboration as the savior in education?
At some point we need to be honest and admit to the fact that collaboration only takes us so far. In fact, collaboration isn't the Holy Grail for fixing the teaching profession the same way that relevance isn't the Holy Grail for engaging kids. We need to realize that we're not all working towards the same goal and the utopian fantasy that many educators embrace is simply a fallacy.
At the same time, some studies and reports as recent as 2006 suggest that 50% of new teachers leave the profession within five years. So you want to have a bigger influence on education reformation: start working with the younger teachers and encouraging them to be dynamic and innovative while offering the social and emotional support to "stay in the game". Take the energy you focus on collaborating with people who won't change and apply it to something that will.
I think it is ludicrous the way that we spend so much time and energy "collaborating" with teachers that are rigid and refuse change when we have young, energetic teachers that are leaving the profession because they feel burnt out and frustrated. Forget the rigid teachers! Focus on those that truly embrace help. The reality is that our tenure system protects both good and bad teachers, but even reforming that doesn't guarantee true educational change. All it does is grease the hinges on the revolving door.
I've spoken before about "Broken Window Theory", and I have to say that I believe it is relevant for this question as well. Little steps forward lead to big rewards and gains. The problem is that a lot of the "collaboration" that occurs in schools is simply a stalled vehicle because of the individuals that are focused on the most.
If we work with all new teachers and encourage and support them to be dynamic and innovative teachers then we can slowly, but surely, change education. It won't happen overnight, it won't happen in a year, and it might not happen entirely in five years. Either way, it's more progressive in changing the education system than everyone trying to jump people from 1970 to 2010 by telling them how much we value their opinion when we know their opinion is more of an effort to prevent any type of educational reform.
Let me be clear: I am not against collaboration in schools. In fact, I'm all for it, and I believe it is a necessary step in improving the quality of education for anyone. The key to my opinion is that I acknowledge something about education that most "pie in the sky" types don't.
Collaboration is only collaboration when both sides come to the table with an open mind and a desire to change what is currently happening rather than one of the sides just bitching about the good 'ole days.
Make a bigger impact on changing education? Start with the people who will listen.

Recipe by MARJK
"This recipe was given to me by a friend of mine. It has been a family favorite for over ten years. I make it for Thanksgiving as well as Christmas dinner."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

4 cups
fresh cranberries
1 1/2 cups
whole cloves
whole allspice berries
cinnamon sticks
2 cups
white sugar
I never made cranberry sauce before, and decided that I would make it for the family Thanksgiving dinner this year. It was a HIT. The only thing that I had to change is that when you first start cooking this, bring to a boil then reduce to medium heat and wait for the berries to burst. Otherwise it doesn't get as thick as you would expect. I figured this out based on reviewing other similar cranberry sauce recipes before making this one. I decided upon this one because of all the spices that were in this. They really made a delicious cranberry sauce.
This recipe was a little sweet for me. Next time I will not add so much sugar.
243 Ratings
WOW! This stuff is so good I couldn't stop eating it out of the saucepan and I've never been a fan of cranberry sauce! If you can boil water, you can make this. After reading other reviews, I decreased sugar to about 1 1/2 cups and I grated the zest of one small orange right over the pot as it cooked, which I think gave it just the right layering of flavors without overpowering it. Thanks for the recipe - it's a keeper and has now joined my holiday recipe collection.
I love this recipe, the changes I made were to decrease the sugar to 1.5 cups and instead of adding the sugar at the end i cooked it all together to make more of a gelled chutney type. We have tried it with pork chops and found it to be a wonderful addition. Will use this recipe for years to come.
Never really liked cran sauce, but wanted to be adventurous this holiday season. We give this 5 stars with our modifications: substituted the water for orange juice, halved the sugar, eliminated the spice bag itself and just tossed in the cinn sticks and cloves (easy to remove before refrigeration). We also sprinkled in a bit of pumpkin pie spice. FYI - it took much longer than 15 minutes cooking time for all the berries to burst. Overall, smelled fantastic while cooking & was a huge success at the table.
This MADE our Thanksgiving dinner, and I will never go back to canned cranberries again. It was so easy. I wrapped up the spices in a coffee filter and tied with thread since I didn't have a spice bag.
My family and I LOVED this. I served it along with the turkey at Christmas dinner, and everyone said that they would no longer use the canned variety. It was easy to make; the only change I made was that I substituted orange juice for the water.
My husband cringed when I told him I wanted to make cranberry sauce for this upcoming Thanksgiving because he has HORRIBLE memories of cranberry sauce, past & present!
OMG!!! This cranberry sauce is so tasty, delicious, tangy and easy to make! I rarely follow any cooking recipe to a "tee," so I did improvise a bit.
I decreased the sugar to 1 cup and instead of bundling spices, I used a few pinches of nutmeg, a few pinches of cinnammon and an exotic mixture of dried allspice (with ginger, anise, clove, cinammon & nutmeg). I went VERY EASY (a spinkle or two) with this exotic allspice 'cause I didn't want the sauce to become too bitter. Also, the cranberries, sugar & water DO need to cook for approxiamtely 20 minutes to get a true sauce consistency.
But ohhhhh so good! I cannot believe how tasty this recipe turned out, with a deep red color...so pretty, too! Cannot wait to serve this cranberry sauce to my family for Thanksgiving! Thank you!

Milan Fashion Week: Missoni, Prada and More
It's not a fussy season.
Next year's winter look is classic without being retro, full of staples that distinguish themselves from years past through detail and technology. Colors are dark but not somber, and the looks are often monochromatic or mix-matched patterns, with lots of pinstripes, checks and plaids.
Accessories, fashion mainstays for many designers, take a back seat to the clothes this round. Oversized, heavy-soled footwear are the most innovative accent, and designers kept the pants short to show them off.
The collections are casual, but not necessarily sporty, featuring crewneck sweaters and shirts. Designers also provided daytime business wear with single- or double-breasted suits.
Midway through Milan's four-day menswear fashion previews, tradition trumps trends.
Missoni, Prada and Bottega Veneta
The mood was solemn and the music mournful at the Missoni fashion show, which went on despite the uncertain fate of the family-run fashion house's CEO.
Vittorio Missoni, along with his companion, two other Italian friends and a crew of two, have been missing since their plane disappeared off Venezuelan resort islands more than a week ago.
His sister Angela, the brand's designer, and the rest of the family decided to go ahead with Sunday's show even as crews continued to search for the plane. In a show of support, Italian Fashion Chamber President Mario Boselli led the crowd in a standing ovation at the end of the preview for the winter 2014 menswear collection on Sunday.
Angela Missoni, Vittorio's sister, did not greet the crowd, as she normally does, choosing to stay backstage. No other members of the family were present. The Missoni fashion house was founded 60 years ago by their parents, Ottavio and Rosita, who turned it over to their three children in the late 1990s.
"The affection and the solidarity that we have received in these days of waiting are of great comfort for my entire family, and they give us the strength to continue to hope," Angela said in a statement.
The collection's inspiration was the American West: the dramatic coastlines, deserts and Grand Canyon informing both the colors and the patterns. The looks were relaxed, from the knit suits to denim shirts and jeans to casual corduroy pants.
Many of the knits were bulky, with colorful designs across the back, mostly in dual shades - rust and brown, or mustard and amber or purple and red. The color procession reflected the cycle of a day, from daytime desert sand to deep sunset red and purple to nighttime anthracite and subdued silver.
Don't think the Prada man is absent-minded just because one point of his shirt collar is tucked into the sweater, while the other is out. It's all quite deliberate.
Prada's menswear for next winter features basic shirts, crew neck sweaters and trousers in a very classic color palate: blue, light blue, yellow and red. The shirts, often checked, some with ruffles and ribbons down the front, are worn purposely askew.
The collection aims to answer the question "what is daily fashion," Miuccia Prada said backstage. "Fashion is what you want to wear. The shirt you want to wear, the sweater you want to wear, what a human wants to wear."
The look recalls the past, when telephones were hardwired and typewriters were the vanguard of communications technology, but is made for men who rely on cell phones and laptops.
Outerwear completes the look, from wool or leather overcoats, worn mostly open, to baseball jackets with knit waistlines. The collection was mostly unadorned. The only accessory: thick-soled, oversized shoes in shiny black or brown leather. Cropped pants and no socks accentuate the footwear.
Bottega Veneta
Superlatives don't work with Tomas Maier, a designer of discretion, just like his collections for Bottega Veneta.
And yet one is tempted is to gush over his latest menswear collection. The streamlined look of the collection fits in with the general message coming off the current Milan runway to keep things classic. Subtle details are what make all the difference.
In his show notes, the designer said he wants "no fuss, no gimmicks, but a richness that reflects the world we all work in."
The basic silhouette is a tailored suit cut close to the body in either single-, double-breasted, or three-piece styles. However, the jacket might have a skinny lapel, or no lapel, and the buttoning could be asymmetric while the buttons themselves might be covered in fabric. Sporty outerwear becomes sophisticated when fashioned in suiting fabrics, and worn with vests and dress shirts. A simple gray flannel suit is spiffed up by a patterned shirt and tie.
Maier's latest detail twist is to reinvent classic suiting fabrics, by creating new tweeds, woven in cotton or wool and incorporated in the fabric. These new wool prints are all designed by the Bottega Veneta team. Materials in the collection include lightweight flannel, cashmere and worsted wool, as well as super supple leather.

ETSU women post quality start in Barefoot at the Beach
Related Links
Tuesday, March 08, 2011
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C (March 4, 2011) - While inclement weather may have delayed Sunday's first round, the ETSU women's golf team was not deterred once first and second round play resumed Monday in the Barefoot at the Beach Invitational.
The Buccaneers finished tied for third on the team leaderboard, posting a two-round score of 608 (310-298) on the Davis Love Course at the Barefoot Resort. Individually, ETSU senior Nina Muehl (Vienna, Austria) continued her recently impressive play, finishing the day at 1-over-par 145 (71-74) and just one stroke back of individual leader Fanny Wolte of East Carolina.
ETSU is just six strokes back of second place Wisconsin, while East Carolina leads the event. The Bucs are tied with host College of Charleston for third place, while finishing the day ahead of programs such as Georgetown, Appalachian State, Marshall, Old Dominion, and Illinois State.
"I was pleased with our team's performance today, and Nina just continues to play very well," said ETSU head coach Stefanie Shelton. "Our goal for tomorrow is to make up ground on the leaders and continue to improve our scores from No. 1 to No. 5 on the team."
Along with Muehl's strong play, Bucs' freshman Larissa Steinfeldt (Eschweiler, Germany) finished 13th after carding a 7-over 151 (81-70), which included a team-best, 2-under-par 70 in the second round. Other ETSU results included a tie for 23rd by freshman Sian Evans (Gillingham, England), while junior Mayte Vizcarrondo (Cadiz, Spain) is tied for 42nd.
Third and final round play at the Par 72, 6,107-yard Davis Love Course will wrap up on Tuesday. ETSUBucs.com will provide a complete report following the day's action.

An Amazing ' Food and Riesling Pairing ' Experience at Splendido!
After months of planning and eager anticipation, a small group of 'Riesling Loving' Chowhounders gathered at Splendido yesterday for a stunning ' once-in-a-lifetime ' Chowmeet.
For this gathering, each participant was asked to bring along a 'gem' bottle of Riesling from their own cellar collection. These, to go with a specially tailored ' Food and Riesling ' pairing tasting menu. The task of selecting and bringing the bottle was a relatively simple one. However, here in Toronto, the task of identifying a restaurant with a kitchen capable of delivering the quality of food and a wine service competent enough to complement the array of such fine and rare wines is a huge challenge.
Our event organizer, Ontario Board's 'Food and Wine' Guru - Estufarian selected Splendido as the venue and his choice was spot on! At the end of the meal, we achieved a rare Trinity of great food and wine, great service and most of all, great company!!
The meal, specially designed and prepared by Chef Victor Barry consisted of the following offerings:
Amuse Bouche
- Mystery Indian spiced cream soup with savory miniature finger puff.
- Qualicum Bay Scallop ceviche & Ramps
- Australian Toro, Pequillo Pepper
- Razor Clam Salad, Cucumber foam
- Rocky Point Oyster, smoked butter sauce
- Oregon Black Trumpet Mushroom Salad
Celeriac, Perigord Truffle ( generously shaved ) and Crisp Parsnip
- Seared Rouge Farms Foie Gras ( again generous slab )
Caramelized Pineapple
- Bourdin Noir
Walnut, Apple & Duck Confit
- Chestnut Agnolotti ( supremely smooth and creamy )
Suckling Pig, Parsnip & Hazelnut
- Passion Fruit Genoise
Caramelized Banana, White Chocolate $ Passion Fruit Sorbet
- Macaroon, Marshmallow coconut, Madeline ( piping hot! ), Shortbread
Due to time consideration and the large number of dishes involved, I am not going to provide a detailed dish-by-dish review. Instead, I will just let the dish description, photos and the readers`imagination to determine the olfactory and taste sensation!
All I wanted to say was that every dish was well executed and the presentation eclectically funky. The entrees were `borderline rustic`, well balanced, delicious and incorporating a `textural play` between the main ingredients and their supporting cast. All in all, the dishes were successful in high lighting the versatility of Riesling in food pairing!!
Next, on to the true stars of the evening - the Incredible WINE!!
The amazing array of rare gems contributed by the participants included:
- 1983 Inniskillin Late Harvest Selection Riesling, Limited Edition#7632
- 1969 Egon Muller Scharzhofberger Spatlese (MSR)
- 1971 Eitelsbaccker Kronenberg Auslese (MSR)
- 1971 Egin Muller Scharzhofberger Auslese (MSR)
- 1971 Anheuser Winzenheimer Rosenheck Auslese (Nahe)
- 1997 Gunderloch Nackenheim Rothenberg Gold Cap Auslese ( Rheinhessen)
- 1998 Gunderloch Nackenheim Rothenberg Gold Cap Auslese ( Rheinhessen )
Apart from the 1969 Scharzhofberger, which went rapidly downhill once exposed to air ( but somehow miraculously revived for a short period after a half hour wait ), the rest of the wines were absolutely magnificent and were surprisingly fresh, vibrant and youthful for their age!!
In particular, the Scharzhofberger and Anheuser from the brilliant Classic 1971 vintage were near to absolute perfection!! What an experience!!
At the end of the evening, we were all stuffed, extremely happy and fortunately still sober enough to drive home!!!
re: dubchild
Anything 'sweet' is almost automatic to go with Foie Gras. So having the Auslese with it was great. However, I loved the 1971 Anheuser Auslese with the Bourdin Noir since the freshness of the wine really cuts through the richness and greasiness of the sausage. The 1998 Gunderloch Gold Cap was made like a Beerenauslesen and was sweet and punchy enough to handle the dessert.
Baller meal, and confirming that Splendido is still one of the best choices in the country for high-end dining.
I had to rush out of the city early the next day, so am now catching up.
First, thanks to Charles for doing the summary - saves me the effort.
Secondly kudos to Splendido - a stunning meal, perfectly realized - only complaint was too much food - yet we all valiantly continued eating after we said we coudn't eat any more!
Thirdly, I started taking notes when the first course/wine came out - then gave up as it was just so much fun sitting back and enjoying great food, great wine and great company. If I have a better experience this year I will be both surprised and smug!
re: estufarian
Hear! Hear!
re: Charles Yu
sounds incredible. if you ever do this again I could scrounge up a bottle of 1970 Wachenheimer Gerumpel Trockenbeerenauslese :D
re: Apprentice
On the contrary my friend! The 2007 is a great German vintage. As such your Auslese from a good producer should last for at least 20+ years!
re: Apprentice
The dishes themselves aren't that unusual. Not to take away from this wonderful meal, but many of them are on Splendido's current seasonal menu. You can have food of this quality at Splendido any time - you don't need a special dinner to do so - although the display of amazing Rieslings is outstanding!
re: justxpete
Charles - I don't have a cellar so what I buy needs to be consumed within 18months. Unless you think a cool, cold storage would suffice??? The Markus Molitor is excellent IMO.
Having dined at Splendido a couple weeks back, I agree what they put out is excellent and they are highly accommodating, but nonetheless the meal (the whole package) sounds fantastic.
re: Apprentice
Based on my experience, a cellar is nice but not absolutely necessary!
Years ago, whilst living in Calgary, I stored a couple bottles of 1971 Schloss Johannisberger Riesling Auslese inside a living room cabinet that is subjected to daily temperature fluctuation of at least 5-10c. The wine still drank perfectly after storing in that condition for over 3 years!!

Chattanooga Downs East Tennessee State, 66-61
Saturday, January 26, 2002Johnson City, Tenn. (Jan. 26, 2002) - Poor free throw shooting and a 23-point afternoon by Chattanooga's Toot Young was enough for the Mocs to come into Johnson City and come away with a 66-61 win over East Tennessee State in men's Southern Conference basketball action. The loss halted ETSU's 18-game home court winning streak. Neither team could find much offense at the beginning of the game, with both teams shooting around 20 percent over the first 10 minutes. A basket by Jerald Fields (Gainesville, Fla.) at 10:08 put ETSU (10-9, 3-5 SoCon) up only 10-9. Chattanooga (11-10, 4-4 SoCon) then found some of its shooting touch, and took a 20-13 lead on a layup by Young with 5:28 left in the half. ETSU then found some offense and climbed back into the game by scoring six straight points, four by Tiras Wade (Tampa, Fla.), to make it 20-19 with 3:19 left. Chattanooga pulled back out to an eight-point lead on a three pointer by Tim Parker with 23 seconds left, but the Bucs' James Anthony (Brandon, Fla.) answered with a trey of his own with just two seconds showing to make it 30-25 at the half in favor of the Mocs. Cold shooting did in the Bucs in the first half, as they hit only 31 percent of thier shots, including a frigid 2-of-16 from three-point range. Chattanooga, on the other hand, shot 46 percent and hit 3-of-7 treys. Chattanooga extended its lead to nine points on a layup by Dusty Pullian at the 17:08 mark at the start of the second half. Ryan Lawson (Rogersville, Tenn.) then led ETSU back into the mix, hitting a pair of treys that fueled a 10-2 run that brought the Bucs back to within one at 38-37 with 13:13 left in the game. Young put a stop to the ETSU run, hitting three treys over a two minute span to lead the Mocs back to a six-point advantage at 51-45 with 8:08 to go. ETSU came right back, however, and took its first lead since early in the first half on a pair of free throws from Wade that made it 55-53 with 4:42 to play. That would prove to be the high water mark for the Bucs, however, as Chattanooga rallied down the stretch, outscoring the Bucs 8-3 over the final three minutes to claim the win. Wade and Zakee Wadood (Lonoke, Ark.) each posted double-doubles for the Bucs, with Wade scoring a team-high 16 points to go with 10 rebounds. Wadood finished with 12 points and 11 boards. Fields added 14 points for the Bucs. Young led all scorers with 23 points, including hitting four of his nine three-point attempts. Pullian had a double-double for the Mocs with 12 points and 12 rebounds, while Parker added 12 points. Chattanooga shot .407 for the game, and outrebounded the Bucs, 45-39. ETSU had shooting woes all afternoon, and only finished with a .338 shooting mark, going just 4-for-25 from three-point range. The Bucs also had trouble at the free throw line, hitting only 13-of-24 attempts. ETSU will swing back into action on Wednesday, Jan. 30, when the Bucs will travel to VMI for a 7:00 p.m. matchup with the Keydets.
