Strategists in an uncertain world
Referring to the conceptual framework for strategy-as-practice (Whittington 2006, Jarzabkowski et al. 2007), this paper aims at investigating the practioners-practices couple, by analysing the main and recurrent individual characteristics of practitioners and the way they interact with their troubled environment and the strategy formation process of the organization (formalization, intuition, market or organization-focused, communication mode, ...). Hence, we focus on strategists and their strategizing practices.

I love Japanese language and great stories. I watch anime in Japanese - raws (if possible ofc). However I have to admit sometimes I get lazy and watch with English subs. I read manga only in Japanese. I consider reviews based on dubbed movie or translated book an abomination.
Why read manga in Japanese
I read manga only in Japanese, because knowledge of Japanese language, culture and civilization allows to understand subtle meanings in content - consequently results in improved reading experience. Makes reader more aware that characters think and act in Japanese way. Also it fits more natural to overall design of manga written in classical style - reading from right to left vertically. Note that translations are lossy (missing meaning, translation errors, etc).
Why watch anime in Japanese
I watch anime only in Japanese dub, because very similar reasons as in case of manga. I started with English fan-subs and when I got better in Japanese (note: I am not learning Japanese from anime and manga. IMHO It is not a good idea. If you want to learn find a teacher or a school to teach you.) then I gradually switched to raws. Due to laziness and other factors I occasionaly go to subs. I always recommend to avoid dubbed anime at all cost. Not all non-Japanese dubs are bad some of them are quite good, but none can match original.
I've saying: "When you taste a fine wine, you won't be satisfied with common beverage anymore." (translated)
What I think about reviews
In the end there is no such thing as one hundered percent objective review. I think you can not avoid some level of subjectivity. One can easily overlook flaws if he already likes it. Moreover personal taste changes with time.
What I think about recommendations
As each anime/manga is substantially different and like/dislike is purely subjective it's highly improbable I would like other anime/manga sole on some similarities in story. Especially if reasoning were made by someone else.
What is the best way to find good anime
Simply put trial and error. You find out soon there are lot of people that gladly trash your favorite pieces - especially in so called official site reviews. To be completely fair You would do the very same to theirs.
What kind of characters in anime/manga I hate most
male: whining (example: Ganta IGARASHI - Deadman Wonderaland)
female: pestering (example: Chi-Chi - Dragon Ball Z)
Anime I have started with (in no particular order)
Dragonball, Sailormoon, Saint Seiya, Slayers
My favorite anime
My favorite manga
My genre preferences
I don't watch:
Generally I don't like Mecha. It is hard to express a reason why. I find it kind of cheap, childish and unimpressive. Sport anime is the second genre which does not interests me. I don't like stupid submissive virgin male leads. That puts most of ecchi and harem on my won't watch or 0.5 star list. For obvious reasons I do not watch yaoi/shounen-ai.
I do watch:
Pretty much anything else not mentioned in don't watch. I don't have special preferences in that regard. Fantasy, comedy, action, romance, sci-fi, horror, yuri, gender-bender.

Watched anime/manga ranking FAQ
Q: Why is Grave of the Fireflies 1-star in other words bad anime?
A: The ending is spoiled by showing death of the kids at the very beginning. The finale is so tedious. I was saying to myself "just die and let the movie finish" 20-15 min before the end. It is just captain obvious topic kids die in a war.
Q: Why is Neon Genesis Evangelion 1.5-star in other words cheap anime story?
A: Themes used in Neon Genesis Evangelion are cheap. It is repetitive Mecha. Making mecha part alien does not make it anymore cool. Bogus usage of Christian terminology. If you want a great anime which can to some extent claim Christian themes: Saint Seiya (virtues, divine providence, objective morality, sacrifice) or Jigoku Shoujo (evil, sin, hell). Even if they do not use explicitly Christian terms the essence can be found there.
Q: Why is Devil May Cry 1.5 star in other words cheap anime story?
A: It was recommended as similar to Hellsing Ultimate. It is not at all. It just goes for cheap action gimmicks without any serious plot. It is bunch of episodes, where main character kills stuff. It does not contain any deeper philosophical aspect - the ultimate purpose of story - like Hellsing Ultimate does.
I am going to update/rewrite some my older reviews (hopefully this year 2015), because after consideration those scores are over-blown on some series - Fate Zero and Black Rock Shooter. Now I know better.
14,049 total episodes
Yes, Death Parade was great ^_^ but it hadn't aired at the time of my Tokyo Ghoul Root A review (first impressions), and as for Parasyte and Garo, I didn't mention them because they weren't Winter 2015 anime, they're Fall 2014, so I didn't bother as I was literally basing the season on Winter 2015 only. Hope that clears things up :)
I'm following you, great review about Hellsing that is also my fav anime of all times
and the fact that you can actually read japanese... awesome!
Hey, great review on atatatatatata hokuto no ken, and the others. :)
btw I see you really liked sbs yamato 2199 with i am enjoying alot atm I just got a question why did you rate crest of the stars so low.? According to your scale its utter crap , imo the music and he show itself is really good, well not reinventing legend of the galactic heroes or yamato, but still...
O:! i read ur bio and im impressed that you were able to learn Japanese just by watching anime and reading manga xD (wish i could do that lol) i also agree with ur ratings xD

On my last day in Dominica, I had a rare and wonderful opportunity. A colleague and dear friend of mine, Davidson, sponsors a 10-year-old boy named Raneen on this beautiful Caribbean island. Davidson asked if I could check on Raneen and his family during my trip. It just happened to work out that on a late afternoon, I had a few hours to spend with the child.
I had a dual mission: tell Raneen all about his sponsor and gather as many details as I could about Raneen and his family to share back with Davidson. I was an information conduit.
It was an amazing experience to enter their home, not as a ChildFund employee, but as a family friend. For once I wasn't taking notes or asking questions; I was just in the moment, listening to the family talk about their sons, their experiences and what they wanted out of life for their children, themselves and their community.
I told Raneen and his family that Davidson is well-respected and wise, and that he has a laugh that immediately puts everyone at ease. I also shared a little about where he is from (Sierra Leone) and about the country where he lives today (Ethiopia). I even showed them a few recent photos.
In exchange, I learned that Raneen is quite a good athlete and is doing really well in school. He also has a creative and artistic side, and especially likes to draw fast cars and read comics. I even found out that Raneen has never cut his hair and that each morning his mother and he decide how she is going to arrange it. I met his brothers, had a nice snack with his family and learned about his community. Raneen showed me where he keeps all the letters Davidson has sent, and he told me how much the letters mean to him.
The visit ended with hugs and a few presents. Raneen is a happy, healthy, respectful and sweet young man, soon to be 11 years old. Though he was happy I came to visit, he insisted that I tell Davidson that he is looking forward to his visit as well.
Now that I think about it, my sponsored child lives in Kenya — maybe I should see if Davidson can visit him for me!

I grew up doing school and community theater, so I feel right at home when I walk into a youth group drama workshop in Dominica. What may look like 20 youth milling about and playing games is actually a cluster of specific activities designed to encourage eye contact, expressive touch, intentional body movements and voice projection, cadence and enunciation. All of these skills are aimed at building not only self-expression but also self-esteem.
The youth divide into three skit groups, each with a given theme: domestic abuse, teen pregnancy and drug abuse. The youth are deciding the detailed roles, the props and the message for this workshop. However, these themes result from months of ChildFund's work with Dominica's communities, helping children and youth identify the root causes of poverty within their families and localities. These serious themes emerged as ever-present concerns in children's lives.
Now I've participated in and seen hundreds of skits throughout my life, but the one on domestic violence stops me in my tracks, gives me shivers down my arms and makes me uncomfortable enough that I want to look away. Here's the plot:
A girl is talking on her phone flirting with a boy. Her boyfriend comes in, catches her giggling and accuses her of cheating. She cowers in the corner of the room trying to hide, but he slaps her with such force that she crashes to the floor. He takes off his shoe and beats her over and over. The skit continues with each family retaliating and escalating the fight. Eventually, someone dies. Everyone comes together at the community funeral and cannot believe that a domestic spat escalated to such violence. The message from Dominican youth is clear: don't let someone die before you break the cycle of violence.
The honesty and frankness with which the youth interpret this drama make it clear that they've witnessed similar real-life scenes play out in their community time and again, perhaps even in their own families. The skit was so raw and true that I still get shivers thinking about it. It was fiction, yet so clearly based on their childhood realities.
Dominica's youth will be presenting similar skits in the coming week at a street theater event to raise community awareness about these important issues. This ChildFund-guided youth group, specifically its drama program, is giving youth the opportunity, resources, organization, space and time to join their voices and make an impact in their community. ChildFund hopes to replicate the success of this group across the island in the coming year.
by Nicole Duciaume, Regional Sponsorship Coordinator, ChildFund Americas
Almost two and a half years ago, a timid young man from Dominica represented ChildFund at the United Nations telling his transformational story from a life of violence to one of involvement, participation and empowerment.
Denzel, now 18, remains a positive influence, championing the role of youth participation in their communities. Change doesn't happen overnight for children and youth in ChildFund programs, but even small changes are worth recognizing and celebrating. Denzel believes that change starts with voicing your opinion. He tells me he has "learned the importance of participating and encouraging others to participate and learn and share and be present."
As Denzel finishes his last year in high school, he's focusing his studies on auto mechanics, wood working, technical carpentry and social studies. He isn't entirely sure what he'll do after graduation because there just aren't many jobs in his community. "One of the biggest issues is unemployment," he explains. "We need support creating job opportunities and helping youth see that a different future is possible. Most people my age do not have a job, and most are discouraged about their futures."
But even with this frustration, there is still hope among Dominica's teens. One source of hope is the ChildFund-supported youth group. Following a program review in 2009, ChildFund realized that children and youth were discouraged that they were not being heard within their community.
Denzel was one of the more vocal of the youth. At that time, he was involved in drugs and violence, often missing school. He felt that no one was listening to the youth, and there were no opportunities for them. As a result, ChildFund helped form a youth group – one that gives youth a positive outlet to talk about the issues facing them, their peers and their communities.

One of the truly great things about working at ChildFund is discovering children's uncanny ability to bring people together from all walks of life.
Just recently, I found myself on the phone with His Excellency Dr. Nicholas J. O. Liverpool, president of the Commonwealth of Dominica.
Can you guess why?
Dr. Liverpool is a ChildFund sponsor.
His reasoning is simple: lead by example.
Having attended a number of ChildFund functions, Liverpool says he was "impressed by the enthusiasm" with which National Director Francis Joseph and the ChildFund staff are engaged with their duties in his country.
"They were doing a wonderful job," he says, "so I thought this will be one way that I can offer assistance. Mr. Joseph can now say: 'The president is a sponsor.'"
He's also inviting a number of his friends to become sponsors as well.
"I'm very enthusiastic about the project," says Liverpool, who has placed a strong emphasis on education during his administration. "There are a lot of children in need."
As a new ChildFund sponsor, His Excellency is eager to participate more fully in the issues that impact children. "I've been involved in children's issues on and off for years," he says. "In a few years — when I'm free to be able to play a part — I hope to do more."

When 16-year-old Denzel Matthew left his rural village of La Plaine in Dominica last Friday en route to the United Nations in New York City, it would be an understatement to say he was a tad nervous.
Accompanied and reassured by Francis Joseph, ChildFund's national director for Dominica/St. Vincent, Denzel rose to the occasion from the moment he landed at JFK.
Representing ChildFund International, Denzel appeared at three separate events related to the United Nations Commemoration of the 20th anniversary of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty.
Throughout the day, Denzel mingled with ambassadors and U.N. officials.
While in New York, Denzel also had the opportunity to meet with a number of ChildFund donors as well as fellow Dominicans now living in the U.S.
As Denzel was preparing to return home, he graciously agreed to one more in a long line of interviews.
Q: What will you tell your family, friends and teachers about your experience at the United Nations?
I will tell my family and friends that speaking at the United Nations was a great experience for me.
Q: How did you feel when you stood up and delivered your statement before the large crowd at the United Nations?
At first I felt nervous and afraid, but I had a lot of support from ChildFund and friends, so I just stood up and delivered.
Q: What did you learn about yourself during this trip?
I learned that I'm a great photographer and a good speaker.
Q: Do you think that it is important for young people's voices to be heard at the United Nations?
I think it's important for young people to be at the United Nations because many people from all around the world go to the United Nations, and the young people's voices will be heard.
Q: What was it like to meet the United Nations ambassador for Dominica?
Meeting the U.N. Ambassador (Hon. Crispin Gregoire) for Dominica was great! We even sat down at a panel discussion together.
Q: Has this trip inspired you to keep working on your goal to help other children when you return to Dominica?
This trip has inspired me in many ways, and I hope that I can help other children reach their goals by introducing positive and fun activities that they can take part in.
Q: Do you think this experience has changed your life?
This experience changed my life by opening a new door for me and allowing me to see my future in a positive and successful way.
Q: What was the most fun thing you did while in New York City?
Everything I did while in New York was fun and exciting! I went to see the play "Shrek" on Broadway. We went sightseeing and walked through Central Park. We went to see 3-D movies. And even though I was scared to speak at the United Nations, I enjoyed it and it was fun.
Yesterday we met Denzel Matthew, a 16-year-old boy from Dominica who turned his life around to help others. The help he is providing to younger children is greatly needed in that country, as well as in nearby St. Vincent in the Caribbean.
ChildFund Caribbean, which runs programs in both Dominica and St. Vincent, reported recently that violence among youth in schools has become a major issue.
"The youth are expressing their restlessness through violence with each other, their teachers, parents and even community members," says ChildFund Caribbean National Director Francis Joseph. "The list of juvenile offenders is increasing in each country."
However, there are signs of hope, as you read about yesterday with Denzel. The photography course is just one example of how ChildFund programs work to give youth alternative ways of expressing themselves without turning to violence.
"Consistently from one school to the next, we saw youth becoming friends and finding that common passion for life, for a skill, for opportunity given, for the chance to see life and see their future in a different light," Francis says.
Youth who participate in ChildFund programs typically become closer to their parents and caregivers; many become more actively engaged in learning.
"Many of them are now excited about being at school. This is a small step we're taking toward a long-term partnership with the youth through their school system to get them excited about learning, leadership and self-improvement," Francis says.

Did You Know?: St. Vincent and the Grenadines are celebrating 30 years of independence in 2009, following centuries of French and British rule. St. Vincent and the Grenadines became the last of the Windward Islands to gain statehood status on October 27, 1979.
What's next: We meet children in the war-torn nation of Afghanistan.
Today, Denzel Matthew, a youth in Dominica, is presenting his success story to the United Nations as part of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty. As part of our blog series "31 in 31," we are sharing Denzel's story in his own words, as well as some of the photos he has taken as part of a ChildFund-sponsored photography course.
By Denzel Matthew
I am 16 years old and one of a group of other people close to my age who are working together to address the needs of our community.
We have a high rate of school dropouts in my community. High poverty rates mean that many children and youth cannot attend school. Some quit school early because they are not happy, or they are thrown out because they do not behave properly. We hope to change this by mentoring and tutoring them in reading and writing schools. Our group has made a proposal to ChildFund staff to see if this is possible.
We are also focused on providing positive social activities, such as attending sporting events and playing football and hiking together.
We also want to help protect the environment. We are proposing a conservation program to help protect an area called Nature Island, a popular destination for tourists in my country. We want to help conserve the animals in this area, which includes rare turtles and a frog species known as a Mountain Chicken.
But this wasn't always my story. Less than two years ago I was known in my community for other reasons. I used to feel frustrated and hopeless. I turned to violence to express my unhappiness with life. Every day was a struggle for me to survive, as I come from a poor family and community. I could not see my future. I had nowhere to go. I felt helpless.
But something happened at my school that changed my life — a photography class was introduced thanks to ChildFund. One of our assignments was a photo essay to show off our community. It seemed strange because in my world, there was little beauty. But I liked taking photos and my other friends liked it as well.
We also had a football program at our school that I participated in with my friends. For the first time in my life, I had a way to let out my emotions without being violent.
Today, I am a happier person and am happy to tell my story. But much work remains. I hope that by helping others in school and getting more youth involved that I can change the future of others who may be in situations like mine.

A 16-year-old Dominican boy who overcame a violent and hopeless past through a program sponsored by ChildFund International will share his transformational story at the United Nations next week. The event is part of the commemoration of the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty and the world body's continuing observation of the 20th anniversary of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Denzel Matthew is one of five children from an impoverished family in the Caribbean nation of Dominica. His troubled life centered on his involvement with a spate of violent activities until a photography course brought him purpose and direction. He will take part in two U.N. events on Monday, Oct. 19.
The first, "Children and Families Speak Out Against Poverty," takes place 1:15-2:30 p.m., in Conference Room 2, U.N. Secretariat Building. This commemoration is organized by the International Movement ATD Fourth World, the NGO Subcommittee for the Eradication of Poverty and the U.N. Department of Economic and Social Affairs, and co-sponsored by the Missions of France and Burkina Faso to the United Nations.
The presentation will be followed by an interactive panel: "Children: The Future and the Present — Participation in Poverty Reduction and Accountability for Rights." This event takes place at UNICEF's Labouisse Hall, 3-5:30 p.m. The panel is organized in partnership with UNICEF by the NGO Subcommittee for the Eradication of Poverty and the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs, with the support of the NGO Committee on UNICEF.
About Denzel
Like so many youth in Dominica, Denzel faced a bleak future, having been involved in violent activities since a young age.
"Every day was a struggle for me to survive, as I come from a poor family and community," he says. "I could not see my future. I had nowhere to go."
But last year, a photography course made possible by ChildFund International donors opened an unexpected doorway for Denzel. After years of despair, he discovered how to channel his energy in artistic rather than violent ways. In addition to providing him with new skills, the photography class introduced the teenager to others with similar interests. When the program ended, Denzel wrote in his evaluation that he no longer felt like dropping out of school or hanging out with the local gang.
"For the first time in my life, I had a way to let out my emotions without being violent," he says.
As he shapes his own future, Denzel also wants to change the lives of those following in his footsteps. He has joined a youth group of about 20 peers who are committed to making a difference in their community. Denzel's latest effort is to create a mentoring program to assist children in his community with reading and writing skills.
The youth group also is developing a conservation program to help protect an area known as Nature Island, a popular tourist destination on Dominica.
"Today, I am a happier person and am happy to tell my story," Denzel says. "I hope I can change the future of others who may be in situations like me."

The results also show that even though a majority of Generation X young adults felt that they were "well informed" or "very well informed" about the issue, overall they scored only moderately well on an Index of Influenza Knowledge, a series of five items designed to test the level of knowledge about viral infections generally and about the swine flu epidemic specifically.
Among the other findings:
Young adults with minor children at home were most likely to follow the news about influenza closely and were most concerned about the swine flu epidemic.
Young adults were most likely to report getting information about the epidemic from friends, co-workers and family members. In the month before the survey, they reported having about nine such conversations, compared to getting news about the flu less than three times via print or broadcast media and about five times from searching the internet.
The most trusted sources of information about the influenza epidemic were physicians, followed by the National Institutes of Health, pharmacists at local drug stores and nurses from county health departments. The least trusted sources were YouTube videos, drug company commercials and Wikipedia articles.
"In the decades ahead, the young adults in Generation X will encounter numerous other crises--some biomedical, some environmental, and others yet to be imagined," says Miller. "They will have to acquire, organize and make sense of emerging scientific and technical information, and the experience of coping with the swine flu epidemic suggests how they will meet that challenge."
A third Generation X Report on the topic of food and cooking will be issued in April 2012. Subsequent reports will cover climate, space exploration, citizenship and voting.

Got the new Zappa "Roxy By Proxy" yesterday. Pre-ordered it last year sometime. Great sound, excellent performance, although it's not my favorite era of Zappa.

I love Ghost - saw them open for Mastodon and Opeth. I'd heard of them but not actually heard their music. Looked them up on Wikipedia during the show and saw a notation that said they were a Satanic band, looked up at them, looked down at the entry again and said, "Really? Do people take this seriously?" Unfortunately missed them last time, but I need to see them again.

About "IblackTyou" by ounom
Design by ounom
Lesbians have over time claimed the black triangle as a symbol of defiance against repression and discrimination, and it is considered a counterpart to the gay pink triangle. Today, it is as a lesbian symbol that the black triangle is most widely recognized.
Now they claim this shirt.
You subbed the same design twice.
I lesbian you
I like it! =D
Questions may be the beginning of something. ;)
I've never heard of the black triangle thing :/
The concept is ok, the design leaves a bit out. At least hand-letter your own text to start off with. Keep working on it.
I "Empty 8-Ball Prediction Viewing Piece" You.
I still think a rainbow triangle would be best, it'd appeal to both gay men and women. You're still alienating the straight audience though, and more people are straight than gay; it's a hard sell for a site like this. Even with high scores I don't think Threadless would choose to print it.
it needs to be a fuzzy triangle
Now they claim this shirt.
lol splendid hubris, sir
Why so serious Phones?
i lesbian you?
lesbians are serious business
I do not do this for business ;)
me neither- i only do lesbians for pleasure ;)
recognised as a minority, funded by the local authority, some drink coffee and some drink tea... a handy metaphor for sexuality. lesbians, lesbians...
lesbe frayandzzzz
i was actually commenting to that tesco guy up there. :P

Kanye West settles teen assault case with 6-figure sum
Kanye West has reached an agreement with the Beverly Hills teenager, who was beaten up by the rapper because he had called his fiance Kim Kardashian the 'N-word,' after offering him over 250,000 dollars.
Sources told TMZ.com that the unidentified male has agreed to the six-figure civil settlement and feels satisfied enough that he does not want to go forward with a criminal prosecution.
Meanwhile, law enforcement insiders told the gossip site that during the negotiations the victim's demand soared to the upper 6 figures.

White Wine Recipes
Braised Lamb Shanks with Gremolata and Baked Polenta
Cooking lamb shanks uncovered in their broth simultaneously browns and braises them, adding richness and color. Braise them a day ahead; the flavor will deepen overnight in the fridge.
Bouillabaisse with Rouille and Garlic Toasts
This pot of Provençal mussels is bathed in a bouillabaisse-style broth with saffron, tomato, and herbs. Make the broth hours ahead. Steam the mussels just before guests sit down, and serve with buttery toasted French bread rubbed with garlic.
Customize the flavor profile of the finished dish by stirring some curry powder or Dijon mustard into the cooking liquid.
Cheddar and Horseradish Spread
This spread is cheesy, tangy, and a little spicy. Serve with plenty of crackers.
French Onion Soup with Comté
Don't rush the browning of the onions—it's essential to the finished soup's flavor.
Leeks en Cocotte
A light yet flavorful "stew" of tender leeks that comes together practically à la minute.
Wine Spritzer
A good rule of thumb, regardless of batch size, is three parts wine to one part club soda.
Franks and Beans
A little white wine and lots of fresh herbs put a refined spin on this classic that tastes just as good the next day.
Google's Braised Chicken and Kale
Use any variety of nutrient-rich kale in this dish.
Slow-Roasted Andalusian-Style Lamb and Potatoes
Ask for the smallest lamb your butcher has (like those from New Zealand), or buy a 3½–4-lb. piece of a leg.

Ethics, Knowledge and Truth in Sports Research
An Epistemology of Sport
The study of sport is characterised by its inter-disciplinarity, with researchers drawing on apparently incompatible research traditions and ethical benchmarks in the natural sciences and the social sciences, depending on their area of specialisation. In this groundbreaking study, Graham McFee argues that sound high-level research into sport requires a sound rationale for one's methodological choices, and that such a rationale requires an understanding of the connection between the practicalities of researching sport and the philosophical assumptions which underpin them.
By examining touchstone principles in research methodology, such as the contested 'gold standard' of voluntary informed consent in the natural sciences and the postmodern denial of 'truth' in the social sciences, McFee demonstrates that epistemology and ethics are inextricably linked. Drawing on a wide range of examples, from the laboratory to the sports field, McFee explores the concepts of 'knowledge' and 'truth' in sports research and makes a powerful case for a philosophical deepening of our approach to method and methodology in sport. This book is important reading for all advanced students and researchers working in sport, exercise and related disciplines.less

Ryan Murray
The Syracuse football coaching staff tried to land one of the hometown prospects at quarterback in Mike Paulus for this class, but that did not pan out as he picked North Carolina. Days later the Syracuse staff offered a Western Pennsylvania quarterback in Cody Catalina. The young gun slinger was aware of the situation with Paulus all through out the start of the recruiting process and new he would have to wait for his offer.It took almost two months for Catalina to pull the trigger and verbal to the Orange. A little under two months from that commitment the two quarterbacks met in Syracuse for a 7-on-7 passing tournament. The match up saw Catalina out play Paulus and get fans excited about the future of the position. Now it is December and Catalina's official visit was over the weekend, nothing has changed since the solid verbal pledge during the summer as he remains fully committed to the Orange. Catalina plans on making it up to Syracuse when summer sessions start so he can get a jump on his academics. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Elementary school teacher Catherine Filipovish has in front of her a shoe box, wires, a paper clip, four Christmas tree lights and one battery. The task is to turn on the lights.
"The purpose and the objective were to create two circuits that could be independent of each other but also could be connected in one whole series as well."
Filipovish will be doing the same experiment with students in her classroom in another two weeks. The students will have to solve the problem on their own and then be taught the terminology. Filipovish says she's no longer spoon-feeding her students' science lessons.
"It's proven really effective. The kids are really excited about learning. I can see the difference between the way I'm teaching science now and the way I taught last year."
In the next classroom, Master Lab Teacher Lisa Hansen is working with a group of fifth graders who have a similar task of getting a light to work with one battery, wires and a paper clip.
"That looks great, now I want you to diagram it in your notebook. Once you get your circuits made and you're successful I want you to write down in your journals what you've done. Draw a picture."
This gives teachers, like Maria Picon, to see how the kids react to the curriculum before they teach it in their own classrooms.
"We can go and see how it's actually is done with a class of students. Then after that this goes into our classroom. So this is two weeks ahead, that's one week ahead, and then we do it in our classrooms."
The teachers taking part in the program will spend one day a week in the lab. The lab is based on professional development programs at the middle and high school levels. The latest effort between Rice University and the Houston Independent School District brings it to the elementary level. Superintendent Abe Saavedra...
"We really have an urgent need to have better trained elementary science teachers. As you know science is one of those areas now being tested."
65 percent of fifth grade students and 45 percent of tenth graders passed the science section of the TAKS test. Saavedra says those numbers will only go up with better teachers. Rice University President David Leebron has confidence in the students.
"We know that our students, our young children can. The question is whether we will work together to make it possible."
For its first year, 90 teachers will take part in the Model Science Lab. Capella Tucker, Houston Public Radio News.

(Kevin C. Cox/Getty Images)By Richard DeitschStan Van Gundy thinks the NBA's new flopping rule is going to be a flop."I think the attempt to try to address it is a good thing but I don't see the rule having much effect," said Van Gundy, the former Magic coach who is transitioning this season to broadcasting with NBC Sports Network and Dial Global radio. "First of all, I think the only ones that you will see penalized are very, very egregious flops. I'd be surprise if it even got to one a game, and I think anybody who watches basketball knows that there is far more than one every game."And I don't even think this is the NBA's fault. I just think it's impossible the way the rule is written where they can 'crack down' on it. I think they will make sort of a cursory attempt, and make it look like they are trying to do something about it."[NBA officially warns two under new flopping rules]Van Gundy cited his brother Jeff, an analyst for ESPN and ABC who has been severely critical of flopping, for being one of the impetuses that caused the league to examine the issue."I think Jeff is more responsible than anyone for it even being addressed and we have talked about it a lot over the years," Stan Van Gundy said. "It shows you what can be the power of broadcasting. Without him, I don't think the problem would be addressed. He almost forced them to address it. "To me it is pretty simple but they won't do it this way: Leave it to the referees. If you just told referees, 'Look, you have a guy flopping and don't give him any calls, period.' That would stop it in a heartbeat. It's natural selection. Once it does not work anymore, it'll disappear. A $500 fine will not have much of an effect. What will have an effect is a guy not getting any calls anymore. Once he stops getting calls, all of sudden the behavior disappears. But they don't want to handle it that way so I don't think anything will really come off this." Promoted Stories Comments

THE McLAREN SPORTS SERIES
Breathtaking performance, carbon fibre construction, twin-turbocharged V8, hand-crafted luxury.
The Sports Series is a sports car like no other. REGISTER YOUR INTEREST
Black swans represent a metaphor for the seemingly impossible. Following their discovery in Western Australia in 1697, black swans came to symbolise events that challenged perceived wisdom and re-shaped the world.
The McLaren Sports Series is the black swan moment for the sports car, with its unique combination of high performance, outstanding luxury and race derived technical innovation. No other competitor offers lightweight and strong carbon fibre chassis construction, incredibly striking dihedral doors or as much horsepower in a sports car weighing so little. And no other sports car is as exciting to drive.
Its dramatic, futuristic design is as eye-catching as it is functional. The distinctive nose of the Sports Series is inspired by McLaren Formula 1™ race cars, shrink-wrapped dihedral doors are intricately contoured to channel cool air to the engine bay, and 'flying buttress' rear pillars create an athletic silhouette while increasing downforce for reassuring handling.
Inside, the luxurious cabin features hand-crafted leather, a Bowers & Wilkins stereo system, excellent visibility and exceptionally comfortable adjustable sports seats. An intuitive seven-inch central touchscreen infotainment system includes satellite navigation, Bluetooth audio streaming, WiFi tethering and voice activation as standard specification.
The McLaren designed 3.8-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine with amazing performance, incredible response and outstanding refinement is the beating heart of the Sports Series.

Unique body styling, including the Sport Aero Pack with new rear diffuser, front splitter and side skirts, and an even more driver-focused chassis further increase the appeal of the 570S, while maintaining the day-to-day usability central to Sports Series DNA.

The McLaren Sports Series is available to order now. The world has never seen anything like it.
Hi all, how are you all doing ? hope you all had a Wonderful Easter.

Trevor Noah's ascent on The Daily Show has been steep—hired on as senior international correspondent four months ago, he'll take over the anchor's desk from Jon Stewart after just three appearances on the show, Comedy Central announced Monday.
Noah, who is 31, brings an unusual background to the job: He's from South Africa, the son of a black woman and a white man, speaks six languages, and may be better known overseas than he is in the United States. (To give The New York Times a comment about his appointment, he had to call from a tour stop in Dubai, where he relayed his reaction: "You need a stiff drink, and then unfortunately you're in a place where you can't really get alcohol.&rdquo
He takes over from Stewart, who's concluding a 16-year tenure, after a series of more seasoned Daily Show hands left the running: Stephen Colbert to David Letterman's Late Show chair, Larry Wilmore to Colbert's slot, Jason Jones and Samantha Bee to TBS. Despite a social-media push for Jessica Williams, she said she wasn't ready for the gig. (Comedy Central hasn't set a start day for Noah yet.)
In morphing from an 11 o'clock hour helmed by Stewart and Colbert to a block of Noah and Wilmore, Comedy Central is conducting a remarkable and perhaps unprecedented transformation. Stewart and Colbert represented (albeit self-deprecatingly) two classic manifestations of white American masculinity—the Jewish wiseacre and the Christian blowhard. With Noah and Wilmore, the hour remains male, but becomes (a bit) younger, less white, and more global in outlook. Even if that's not an intentional shift—"We talked to women. We talked to men. We found in Trevor the best person for the job," Comedy Central President Michele Ganeless said—the effect is to set up a bold, even subversive experiment, extending the progressive politics espoused by the show into personnel decisions.
Hi folks! I'm new here
Hello All, the site does not look to bad

Boston Child Injury Attorneys
Your Child's Injury IS NOT Your Fault
Most parents would do anything to protect their children. However, there are many situations where children sustain injury through absolutely NO fault of their parents. At Kiley Law Group, we understand how difficult it can be to not blame yourself for your child's injury. We also understand that negligent individuals and companies are responsible for FAR TOO MANY child injuries each and every year, and families throughout the state of Massachusetts are forced to deal with pain and suffering that ultimately could have been avoided if not for that negligence.
Generally speaking, we put out trust in companies and individuals to provide products and services that will keep our children safe. Unfortunately, not all companies have the same checks and measures in place to help prevent injuries to the people using their products or services. This is NOT a reflection of improper parenting on your part. You do all that you can to shield your child from injury, but sometimes it's just not enough to prevent serious injury from befalling them. Parties responsible for those injuries though SHOULD be held responsible.
The recovery process for any type of injury can be long and difficult, especially when it involves your child. As a parent, you want what's best for your child, and undoubtedly have numerous questions along the way:
- How are we going to fix this?
- How long is the recovery process?
- What caused this injury?
- What are our rights?
- Who's going to pay for all of this?
At Kiley Law Group, we have OVER 30 YEARS experience helping parents find answers to these questions. We've helped families throughout Massachusetts obtain MILLIONS of dollars for their injuries, and we're prepared to examine EVERY detail surrounding your child's case. All investigative fees and other costs associated with determining EXACTLY what happened are OUR responsibility, not yours. Whether your child has been injured as a result of medical negligence, a defective product, or for some other reason that could have entirely been prevented if not for another reckless individual or company, the child injury attorneys at Kiley Law Group will fight to ensure that those responsible for your child's injuries are held liable and financially responsible in a court of law.
Our Successful Massachusetts Child Injury Case Results
- $3.5 million for head injury to a teenager
- $2.6 million for brain injury to 14 month old boy
- $2.2 million for brain injury to 14 month old girl
- $1.25 million for head injury to 7 year old girl
- $1.2 million for burns and paralysis to a teenager
- $1 million for child killed in a drowning accident
It's YOUR responsibility to help your child recover physically, but it's OUR responsibility to recover financially on your child's behalf. In fact, it's OUR PROMISE to each and every one of our clients that we will not charge them one cent if we don't recover for them. Kiley Law Group will front ALL costs associated with building your child's case, NEVER seek reimbursement for ANY of those costs, and ONLY gets paid if we win your case and recover money for you, GUARANTEED.
Regardless of where you're located in Massachusetts, the personal injury team at Kiley Law Group wants to discuss the details of your child injury case with you. If you're unable to come to our office, WE WILL COME TO YOU. Whether it's at your home, place of business, or even the hospital where your child is recovering, our team will travel to you in order to sort out the circumstances surrounding your child's injury. For more information about how Kiley Law Group can help recover financially on behalf of your child, CALL US TODAY. For immediate assistance, we can be reached toll-free at (888) 208-1695.
A sudden accident, or a history of abuse, can result in both physical and mental trauma for a young person.
Child Accidents & Child Abuse are Common
Due to their physical and mental immaturity, children are particularly susceptible to injuries arising from accidents and abuse. Each year millions of young people are injured in the United States due to careless supervision, unsafe environments, and defective toys and products. In addition, according to recent data compiled by The Federal Administration for Children and Families (ACF), an estimated 794,000 children are victims of child abuse each year.
Child injuries are extremely delicate – you must consider the well-being and prognosis of the child as well as future medical bills and related costs associated with an accident. A child may require financial support, psychological counseling, and physical rehabilitation long after the trauma from an accident or abuse has subsided.
Children Deserve More than Simple Justice
For more than three decades, the personal injury law firm of Kiley Law Group has advocated on behalf of children. Our Boston personal injury lawyers understand the special care that child injury cases require and are dedicated to fighting for the rights of younger individuals.
"Mr. Kiley was very caring right from our first meeting. He took one look at our injuries and told us he would do his best for us. I don't think we would have gotten a thing if it hadn't been for him." – Rosa Caraballo, Former Client.
Our Compassionate Lawyers Can Help You
The child injury attorneys at Kiley Law Group are determined to secure fair compensation for the injured child in your life. We want to ensure that your settlement will provide for any long-term medical and physiological care your child will require now and in the future. In addition, we will fight for any compensation your child deserves for any pain and suffering they have endured so early in their young lives. Contact us today at (888) 208-1695 for a free evaluation of your case.

I assembled per youtube video and it took me 5 seconds. Seems like a time, sanitizer and water saver. Construction could be better but its the only one on the market, I think. Taking this back with me to Japan along with a bottling rack. Previous to this I put all my bottles in a basin with sanitizer used lots of water and took a lot of time. I'm sure this will come in handy.
Bottle Washer
Review by Joe
(Posted on 3/5/15)
Great idea, works well but plastic threads broke after using it about four times (50 bottles). Spring is too strong, learned from some reviews to cut the spring a loop or two. Should be redesigned to be more robust, even if it costs more.
Sanatized 120 Bottles
Review by Lake Rat
(Posted on 3/20/14)
Learning from the comments in other reviews, I added a 3/4 inch copper coupler to support the spring before using for the first time and the unit worked great.
Awesome product, but sort of flimsy
Review by McLovinBeast57
(Posted on 3/10/14)
I liked this product a lot! It helped me sanitize all my bottles way faster than it normally takes. The only problem is I feel like I'm going to break it every time I use it and it's put together rather poorly. So far, though, it's worked great!
Good tool

I use my bottle rinser for cleaning and washing with Star San. it has a deep basin that is very helpful when using Star San.
Sanitize 50 bottles in half teh time
Review by Huber
(Posted on 2/15/14)
It saves me a lot of time. 2 squirts and place it on the drying tree. I can get through 50 bottles in less than half the time it used to take without it.
Huge speed up in sanitizing
Review by Dan
(Posted on 2/1/14)
I've been using this for 4 years and its cleaned thousands of bottles without a problem or showing signs of wear. Sure beats dipping bottle after bottle in a bucket.
Great idea, but poor quality
Review by Dan
(Posted on 1/20/14)
When this thing works its fantastic. Bottling with one is so much easier. The problem is that the plastic is relatively brittle and fragile. If you screw it on too tight or if you press too hard it can break at the threads. there's not really any way to repair this either. So that was really disappointing.
I love this thing.
Review by Owen
(Posted on 1/15/14)
If you're purchasing, or already own, the bottle tree that goes with this little guy, I can't recommend it enough. Like other reviewers I cut the spring down by a loop, taking this apart and reassembling it is very easy. This is the easiest method of sanitizing I've tried yet. I'd suggest using the liquid sanitizer over the powerdered in this situation, I find it sprays better.
Makes it easy to sanitize bottles
Review by Huber
(Posted on 1/1/14)
It takes 2 seconds a bottle, just squirt and put them in a fast rack to dry.
I've had no problems with it over a 3 year period.

When attempting a VBAC will there be signs during labor that a rupture is likely? Like will there be a feeling or pain or something that will let us know? Just wondering what to look for.
signs of impending rupture???
Wife to my love, Luis
Mama to Jackson and my VBAC baby Jacob
Comments (7)
Sometimes yes and sometimes no. The biggest sign is consistent pain along the scar that will not go away after a contraction is done. Sometimes you'll have visible bleeding. Sometimes baby will go into distress or mom will.
A doctor in my practice said a woman who it happened to described the feeling as an "Indian rope burn"- don't know if you've ever "played that game" when you were little (I hadn't, but my husband had and he described it to me)- basically have DH or someone take your arm in their hands and have one hand twist one way and the other twist the other way really, really hard. Apparently, to this woman, that's how it felt.
But remember that the odds are WAY on your side that it won't happen. Hopefully, more people will chime in!
DD 4/06 c/s failed induction (failure to wait), FTP 40 weeks 6 days
DS 7/08 drug-free hypnobabies VBAC 41 weeks 3 days
DD 4/06; DS 7/08; 12 week ^angel^ 10/10; 2 CP ^angels^ 5/11, 8/11; DS2 7/12
According to my docs practice...they swear that a slowing of the fetal heartbeat will be the first indication.
Not sure if I buy that or not, but that's why they are saying I need to be monitored constantly.
I'll be interested in reading the other responses.
IVF baby #1: DS Born 1/08; IVF baby #2 : DD Born 1/10.
I have heard extreme shooting pain sometimes extending up your side. I think if you are unmedicated, chances are you will feel it
"you're freaking me out TV"-Aaron 3 1/2
What I READ was that if it tears on the inside you won't feel it except you will be bleeding more (but it's always hard to tell because your usually bleeding anyway) and your uterus becomes like a flat tire. It won't make you dialate anymore. The if it's on the outside you can see it. Apparently the ultrasound can measure how thick your scare is as well. However it doesn't really matter all that much considering a thick scare can even seperate. However the babies heart lowering could have NOTHING to do with your scar so I'm not sure why they would tell the person ^ there that. In my vaginal births my childrens heart rate had dipped. It could be TONS of things from eclapsed cord to not tolerating labor to something silly as to your position. So I don't find that a good indicator.
Research online, and talk to your doctor. Good luck to you!
Damien(1-3-28-11)Drake(6-11-12)Single mom of 7
Excessive bleeding is the big thing that my doc has talked about. They did talk a little bit about decels, but said they are very different from the standard decel. Hopefully I will be just as clueless at the end of the month because my VBA2C will have gone off without a hitch.
Michelle #3 in Dec.
Please keep in mind that rupture is EXTREMELY uncommon. I don't think it is a good idea to be thinking about that or looking for signs of that when you are in labor -- that will stress you out and make it all slow down and end up in a c-section.
The evidence suggests that you can have too much foetal monitoring for you and the baby. Note that medical staff need to avoid being sued, so if you have continuous monitoring, the moment there is any hint of a problem, they will rush you into a c-section whether it was really necessary or not, because for some incomprehensible (to me) reason, c-section is deemed to be less risky from a lawsuit perspective. Continuous monitoring makes it much more likely that you will have a c-section. Avoid like the plague. If you rupture, it will be obvious. Don't be watching for twinges of pain in your scar etc. I was worried, before my VBAC, that I was getting twinges of sharp pain in my scar, and my midwife said not to worry, and that those twinges do NOT mean it is going to rupture, and sure enough nothing bad happened in my swift, easy, unmedicated natural intervention-free VBAC.
I don't think it is a good idea to worry about u/r too much- it is definitely rare- but I also don't think it's a good idea to completely put it out of your mind. Just like I would not tell a woman "don't worry about how to identify a cord prolapse, it probably won't happen to you!" I wouldn't tell anyone to ignore signs of u/r.
Still, signs of u/r can be difficult to identify. The bottom of this article http://emedicine.medscape.com/article/275854-overview discusses it in some detail; I will C&P below:
The signs and symptoms of uterine rupture largely depend on the timing, site, and extent of the uterine defect. Uterine rupture at the site of a previous uterine scar is typically less violent and less dramatic than a spontaneous or traumatic rupture because the scar is relatively avascular.
The classic signs and symptoms of uterine rupture are as follows: fetal distress (as evidenced most often by pattern of abnormalities in fetal heart rate), diminished baseline uterine pressure, loss of uterine contractility, abdominal pain, recession of the presenting fetal part, hemorrhage, and shock. However, modern studies show that some of these signs and symptoms are rare and that many may not be reliably distinguished from their occurrences in other, benign obstetric circumstances (see Table 2).
Regarding the usefulness of continuous monitoring- I agree that CFM is not necessary in the absence of problems. How many of us labor comfortably at home for hours prior to going to the hospital? However, I do believe there can be value in additional monitoring if baby is showing signs of possible distress, as fetal distress has the highest positive association with identifying rupture. You have to balance the higher probability of RCS against the low probability of failing to identify a rupture. For me that meant I was fine with continuous monitoring when my third baby was having decels into the 60's with each contraction, but I was not fine with it when my last baby had perfect tracings during my initial monitoring. More on this, from the article I linked to above:
Prolonged, late, or recurrent variable decelerations or fetal bradycardias are often the first and only signs of uterine rupture. Bujold and Gauthier showed that abnormal patterns in fetal heart rate were the first manifestations of uterine rupture in 87% of patients.46 In a study by Leung et al, prolonged decelerations in fetal heart rate occurred in 79% of cases and was the most common finding associated with uterine rupture.54 Rodriguez et al found that fetal distress was the most common finding associated with uterine rupture, occurring in 78%.55 Overall, in 4 studies from 1983-2000, prolonged decelerations of fetal heart rate or bradycardias occurred in 114 (80%) of 143 cases of uterine rupture. In cases that involved the extrusion of the placenta and fetus into the abdominal cavity, prolonged decelerations in fetal heart rate occurred invariably.54,56,57,46
Sudden or atypical maternal abdominal pain occurs more rarely than do decelerations or bradycardia. In 9 studies from 1980-2002, abdominal pain occurred in 13-60% of cases of uterine rupture. In a review of 10,967 patients undergoing a TOL, only 22% of complete uterine ruptures presented with abdominal pain and 76% presented with signs of fetal distress diagnosed by continuous electronic fetal monitoring.58

Some bank institution wanted to see the progress they made over time: bank deposits memberships, call duration, and other products they have. However they didn't wanted only that, they desired to SEE THE FUTURE. So this project gave them the ability to do so.
Isn't that awesome? The Bank institution not only can look to the past to see where they have been, but they can also look to the future to see where they could be, by analysing predictions of bank deposit membership sucess and the call durations of their marketing campaign. Not only that, they have now acess to a unique feature, market segmentation, provided by our Clustering Solution.
Good & comprehensive work. A nice demo of what Power BI can do!
Hello Carlos & Congrats for making it! If it was not for the competition that you have created I don't think that I would have pushed so hard! Yes it was very exciting indeed, especially those final hours! Great job and hope to meet you among the top 5 :)
Thank you for your opinion Mr. Jörg Plümacher. It is true that the video had to be compressed to fit in the submission restrictions. 500 mb is a lot, but that was the best that came out with the size of our content and our editing tools :) If you like it's what matter to us, the public opinion it's such a motivation. Really appreciate it.
In my opinion it is a very good work. If you could improve the tone quality, it would be perfect.
Congratulations. A really fantastic work.
Sir Marcello Benati your comment it's an honor for our work. I really appreciate your interest and having such a professional interested in this video it's very satisfying. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for your comments guys :) this work is the result of some really hard work, but who runs for pleasure doesn't get tired :D
Well done, really good job :)
I think this project isn't only a wonderful idea but also shows the great job that it's actually being done in Minho University, Portugal. It's a mix of talent, great technology and right people.
I showed this to a few of my bank clients and they feel in love with the demo and the idea. I can assure you already got a few potential clients! Parabens e boa sorte !
Well done!
Congratulations! ;)
I really think this demo shows a lot of what Power BI can do. This is really the most complete video in this contest. Congratulations!
Well done!! Nice demonstration of power BI capacities!!!
