FOOD; Venice vs. Venice
By Jonathan Reynolds
Published: June 23, 2002
Let's face it, my taste buds are only mine, not yours or anybody else's, and as such deserve no special accolade just because they temporarily have access to a printing press. This is helpful to remember not only in matters culinary but also in matters artistic, financial and romantic. For instance, now that the buffoon season is over and there are no more awards or (worse) awards shows until the billions of Emmys show up again in the fall, my easily appalled friend Jocko lays out his cards. When Jocko told me that giving the Tony to as pedestrian a show as ''Thoroughly Modern Millie'' mocks the prize and makes it meaningless as a symbol of quality because enough voters are theater owners and roadshow presenters who are not going to take a show called ''Urinetown'' on the road despite its superior originality and smarts, why those, of course, are only Jocko's taste buds, not yours or anyone else's.
Similarly, your broker's recommendation to buy or sell AOL Time Warner is only one person's opinion. And one woman's hunk will be another's brute. So if I tell you that the food at a hotel in Las Vegas modeled after the city of Venice is considerably better than any of the food in Venice itself, that's only my opinion -- even though in this case it's right. And if I add that the food in that Italian city is the most mediocre and overpriced in the world (not the worst -- that belt is still comfortably worn by Shea Stadium), well, that again is entirely subjective. Just because I happen to know that two restaurants at the Venetian hotel -- Zeffirino and Valentino -- surpass any in Venice, Italy, is no reason to buy it wholesale.
Of course, if you are cantankerous and fond of clichés, you might say that I was comparing apples and oranges -- or at least Stayman Winesaps and Fujis -- since Zeffirino is a branch of a Genoan restaurant and Valentino originates in Santa Monica, Calif., and the restaurants in Venice are, presumably, Venetian. Nevertheless, a good Stayman may be fairly compared to a poisonous Fuji, and in any case, the absence of excellent food in Venice, particularly considering the prices, is inexcusable.
In a curious reversal, the two cities are mirror images of each other: you go to Venice for what it was, not what it is now, and you go to Las Vegas for what it is now, not what it was. Similarly, you go to Venice for the artistic experience and wind up getting that experience but leaving with the feeling you've been fleeced, whereas you go to Las Vegas expecting to be fleeced (which you might be, if you gamble) but also unexpectedly confronting artistic masterpieces. (The Venetian is the most amusingly designed hotel in town. It houses the Guggenheim Hermitage, with an impressive collection of Picassos, Matisses, Cezannes and other masterworks, while across the strip, the Bellagio is presenting a Calder exhibit.)
Which is not to say there is a city on earth comparable to Venice in terms of architecture, art or visual surprise: you can barely turn a watery corner without confronting some serendipitous visual delight in what is, after all, the world's largest opera set. At least that's the opinion of these taste buds. But the food!
In Venice, various concierges at the Gritti Palace, where we stayed, recommended dull failure after dull failure, each, I suspect, managed by one of their cousins.
The Michelin one-star called Osteria da Fiore is a Frenchified arm-twist of the national cookery, as most Michelin-starred places tend to be. The French generally try to overthrow other cuisines -- in sort of imperialistic culinary coups parallel to what they complain the United States does politically.
''I hate what Michelin has done to Italy because now too many restaurants suddenly serve sauces and lobster gelatin on what used to be good Italian food,'' says Mario Batali. ''What's lobster gelatin doing in there? The reason Michelin three-stars exist is so that rich people can eat the same thing wherever they go.'' Well, that's two sets of taste buds.
There is no lobster gelatin at da Fiore, but rather there is unimpressive and overbattered seafood. Of the 12 restaurants we ate at, most of them beneath mention, Da Ivo was the best though its pleasures were minor -- attentive service and nutty biscotti -- and its drawbacks major, like mushy orata and a whopping bill of $245.
But the worst offender was Harry's Bar, the watering hole made famous by Hemingway, and you can only imagine how well oiled Papa must have been to keep returning. The waiter (one of four Claudios) was slightly condescending until I left for the men's room and my companion said to him, ''I apologize for him; he asks so many questions because he writes about food for the paper.'' As only a woman can, she left the name of the paper a mystery. But when I returned, Claudio III had slipped one of Harry's souvenir ashtrays next to my seat and was suddenly more than pleasant. Later on, Arrigo Cipriani came by, and when I asked if he had ever met Hemingway, he promptly gave me a copy of his autobiography.

Efficient parallel algorithms for computing the kinematics, dynamics, and Jacobian of manipulators and their corresponding inverses are discussed and analyzed, and their characteristics are identified based on the type and degree of parallelism, uniformity of the operations, fundamental operations, data dependencies, and communication requirements. Most of the algorithms for robotic computations possess highly regular properties and some common structures, especially the linear recursive structure. They are well-suited to be implemented on a single-instruction-stream-multiple-data-stream (SIMD) computer with reconfigurable interconnection networks. A reconfigurable dual-network SIMD machine with internal direct feedback that best matches these characteristics has been designed. To achieve high efficiency in the computation of robotics algorithms on the proposed parallel machine, a generalized cube interconnection network is proposed. A centralized network switch control scheme is developed to support the pipeline timing of this machine. To maintain high reliability in the overall system, a fault-tolerant generalized cube network is designed to improve the original network

My experience here has been good. I have stayed 5 nights a week for the past 5 weeks and am about to finish my 6th and final week.
I got an internship in Redwood City and needed affordable housing because the commute is too far from Davis where I go to school. I spent months on craigslist looking for subleases and other options and scoured the internet for extended stay hotels. This has been THE BEST OPTION.
I reserved my first week on booking.com and explained my 6 week plan. The original price was $54 per night for their simplest room. I ended up upgrading to a room with a shower, which became $61 per night but so worth it. Going down the hall to use a toilet is a minor inconvenience.
I found the staff was very friendly and helpful. They locked in my original low price, helped with my luggage, and allowed me to have the same room week after week. The level of security is comforting, and most of the time I can park close by if I do so before 530 or after 11. The place is pretty well kept, and I have noticed improvements since I have been here.
It certainly isn't fancy, but you get what you pay for and the deal is amazing! Most extended stay hotels in this area are $1000 per week! Here, I pay a little under $350 per week and am only about 10 minutes from the big corporate area where I work. I actually get to keep some of my paycheck instead of spending double what I earn just to live here. Without this hotel, my internship would not have been affordable.

- Welcome to the Pacific Euro Hotel. We're located at 868 Main St. in downtown Redwood City. We are just minutes away from shops, restaurants, city offices, public transportation, and the famous Fox Theater. We are under new management and our facility has been remodeled recently.

Rubio Clashes With Trump Over Who Is More Robotic
CREDIT: AP Photo/David J. Phillip
After suffering endless political attacks from both sides of the aisle over his repetition of talking points during speeches and debates, GOP presidential candidate Marco Rubio accused frontrunner Donald Trump of doing the same thing in Thursday night's volatile Republican presidential primary debate.
"He says five things," Rubio said after accusing Trump of repeating himself in explaining his health care plan. "Everyone's dumb. He's going to make America great again. Win, win, win. He's winning in the polls. And the lines around the states. Every night. Same thing."
During a GOP debate last month, Rubio repeated a canned line about how President Obama "knows exactly what he's doing," and Gov. Chris Christie (R-NJ) effectively attacked him over the "memorized 25-second speech." Rubio followed this performance with subsequent repetitions, and was then ridiculed so much for being robotic that Rubio himself blamed the debate performance for his poor showing in the New Hampshire primary.
On Thursday night, Rubio was under pressure to hit back at Trump, who appeared to have a clear path to the nomination following his wins in New Hampshire, Nevada, and South Carolina. After nearly an hour in which Rubio and fellow candidate Ted Cruz attacked Trump over hiring illegal immigrants, running a failed university, and his stated desire to make deals in Washington, the subject turned to health care.
Trump advocated eliminating interstate health insurance restrictions and Rubio explained his plan before saying "you may not be aware of this Donald, because you don't follow this stuff very closely." He then asked Trump for more about his plan than the elimination of interstate insurance restrictions.
"You don't know what it means," Trump said. "That is the problem."
"What is your plan?" Rubio asked again
"The biggest problem, he doesn't know," Trump said. "The biggest problem he's got is he doesn't know."
Rubio again asked for Trump's plan.
"I watched him melt down two weeks ago with Chris Christie," Trump interjected. "I've got to tell you, the biggest problem he's got is he really don't know about the lines. The biggest thing we've got and the reason we have no competition is because we have lines around the state and you have –"
"Already mentioned that as part of my plan," Rubio cut in. "I know what that is. What else is part of your plan? The only thing is to get rid of the lines around the states? What else is part of your health care plan?"
It was a good question, as reforming the health care system to allow insurers to sell coverage across state lines is ineffective, and an old, stale proposal emblematic of how the current GOP field's health care plans are the same as they were in 2008.
Trump again attempted to explain what the "lines around the states" meant. Rubio again asked for Trump's plan.
"When you get rid of the lines, it brings in competition," Trump said. "So instead of having one insurance company taking care of New York or Texas, you'll have many. They'll compete, and it will be a beautiful thing."
"Right and what — so that's the only part of the plan?" Rubio asked. "Just the lines. The interstate competition?"
"The nice part about — you have many different plans," Trump said. "You'll have competition. You'll have so many different plans."
Rubio took a chance.
RUBIO: Now he's repeating himself.
TRUMP: No, I'm not — no, no, no, no. I don't repeat myself. I don't repeat myself.
RUBIO: You don't repeat yourself?
TRUMP: Here's the guy who repeats himself.
RUBIO: I don't — you repeat yourself every day.
TRUMP: Talking about repeating. I watched him repeat himself five times four weeks ago —
RUBIO: I saw you repeat yourself five times four seconds ago.
TRUMP: I watched him. I watched him melt down on the stage like I've never seen anybody — I thought he came out of a swimming pool.
RUBIO: He says five things. Everyone's dumb. He's going to make America great again. Win, win, win. He's winning in the polls. And the lines around the states. Every night. Same thing.
TRUMP: I tell the truth. I tell the truth.
MODERATOR: You will have time to respond, if you can just let Mr. Trump respond. If you can talk a little bit more about your plan.
TRUMP: We're going to have many different plans —
RUBIO: He's done it again!
"There's going to be competition," Trump concluded. "There is going to be competition among all of the states and the insurance companies. They're going to have many, many different plans."
Bash asked Trump if there was anything else he would like to add to that. Trump said "no, there's nothing to add. What's to add? What is to add?"

Getting found by customers.
That's the goal of inbound "pull" marketing efforts–bringing warm, pre-qualified leads into your sales funnel rather than needing to be constantly reaching outward to cold, uncertain targets.
The DigitalEYE Media team of Orange County Internet marketing specialists always emphasizes the advantages of inbound vs. traditional (outbound "push") marketing — old-school cold-calling, print and TV advertising, junk mail, non-solicited email and trade shows, which are becoming increasingly more expensive yet ever less effective sales tools.
Inbound marketing is the essence of Internet (Web, online) marketing or e-marketing — promotion of companies and their products or services over the Internet. It involves connecting various marketing methods and channels together to develop a stronger online presence and build a more powerful brand. The main benefits of Internet marketing include a global audience along with lower costs to disseminate information as compared with traditional media.
Companies in all industries have no choice but to compete in today's online "virtual" cyberspace marketplace, adopting Web marketing strategies to find new customers. The Internet's ability to provide measureable results make it an ideal venue for coordinated, targeted marketing campaigns with specific commercial goals.
Success begins with steady increases in traffic to a company's content-rich (text, images, video, audio) website — homepage, landing pages, microsites, newsrooms, blogs and more.
E-commerce websites seek transactions — product purchases.
Business websites seek "conversions" — casual content views or website visits turned into desired actions.
In Internet marketing, conversion rate is the ratio of visitors who respond to appeals from marketers, advertisers and content creators. To content creators, a successful conversion may refer to an email address provided in a form, a membership registration, a newsletter subscription, a software download or other activity that occurs due to a direct (or more subtle) request from the content creator for the visitor to take the action.
Ultimately, it's all about brand building and LEAD GENERATION in advance of an eventual sale.
Inbound Internet marketing strategy needs to focus on attracting prospective customers by offering useful (and actionable) information. As such, this strategy centers on three main marketing tactics:
— Search Engine Marketing (SEM/SEO)
— Social Media Marketing (SMM)
— Content Marketing (CM)

This excellent book will make some enemies. It is outspoken, hard-hitting, and correct. -- Brian Maskell, author
From the Publisher
On my first study mission to Japan in February 1981, I visited the American Embassy in Tokyo and met with the information officer. His job was to study the best Japanese technologies and to have that information translated to English to help American companies stay abreast of what was happening in Japan. I was furious at him to have not discovered what Toyota was doing to go from producers of "junk" to world class. His budget, millions of dollars, to spend on translations was hundreds times greater than mine.
Somehow, I was surely blessed to have met Dr. Shigeo Shingo, Mr. Taiichi Ohno, Dr. Ryuji Fukuda, Seiichi Nakajima, Dr. Yoji Akao, Hiroyuki Hirano, Shigehiro Nakamura, Bunji To-zawa, Iwao Kobayashi, Kenichi Sekine and others who were willing to share their information with Americans and allowed me to publish their Japanese books in English.
It shortly became obvious to me from my frequent visits to Japan, 63 as of this date, that the Toyota Production System (TPS) was the most important and the most valuable to study. At first, when I met Mr. Taiichi Ohno, vice-president of manufacturing at Toyota, I asked him to let me have things in writing about TPS. He said, "Norman, we don't have things written down, for it is always changing." I felt that he was just reluctant to share the information that was making Toyota so successful. But, I was perseverant. I wouldn't stop searching for information to share with companies in the West. I magically found Dr. Shingo, co-creator with Ohno of TPS, and he graciously allowed me to publish all of his books in English. After a few years Mr. Ohno also gave me permission to publish also his books in English.
But, why wouldn't GM and Ford do the same? Why wouldn't they locate, translate and publish everything available on Toyota? It is still a mystery to me. In 1984, Toyota decided to open a joint venture plant with GM, NUMMI, to share their production system with GM. Virtually, all of Toyota's secrets were now available to GM. Why didn't GM study carefully the JIT/LEAN concepts and apply them? And through the books I subsequently published, when I owned Productivity Press, most of what Toyota was doing was available to everyone.
I'd like to read this book on Kindle

Bill, in collaboration with Shingo Prize winning author Norman Bodek, has just released a new book, Rebirth of American Industry - A Study of Lean Management. In it he uses his in-your-face style to take issue with several commonly-held lean beliefs, and the companies that mistakenly believe they are lean. The book has already received considerably acclaim from early reviewers.
Brian Maskell, President of BMA, Inc. and one of the leaders of the lean accounting movement, has this to say:
"This excellent book will make some enemies. It is outspoken, hard-hitting, and correct. The authors answer the question "whay have so few American companies successfully transformed themselves into lean organizations". They take us back to the origins of lean at Ford Motor Company and Toyota, and contrast them with the modern American manufacturer. The solutions advocated will be unpopular because they cut to the heart of "professional" management theory and show that the lean transformation must start not on the shop-floor but by active transformation in the executive offices.Read more ›
As a full time lean consultant and author, I am continuously frustrated by the lack of real success in Lean throughout manufacturing. I intuitively understand what is at the root of the limited success, but this book makes it clear. Every "manufacturing" company in the world- with the exception of Toyota and maybe a few others- uses a measurement system that will drive the business in the opposite direction of lean. It is so ingrained that virtually everyone is in staunch support of the old method. So, in any company, lean "success" can only go so far until it bumps up against the standard "Sloan method" of management. That's when everyone starts to panic and the wheels fall off.
I have worked in numerous companies where everyone could see and measure (using lean measurement of waste and time) a process and understand that overall it was more efficient and lower cost, but when measured with the standard measurement methods it loses, and is not adopted. It is a classic case of the Emperors new clothes. We can all see that the Emperor is naked, but no one is willing to step up and fight the fight. We are simply outnumbered and the fight is sure career suicide. Why fight it?Read more ›
Then my friend gave me his copy of this book. I figured I would probably never read it and give it back to him in a few months. I figured it was written for 'Industrial Engineer nerds' and would be above my head. One night, as I am about ready to go to bed, I pick it up and decide to look at chapter 1, so I can at least say I tried to read it. All I can say is WOW!!!! 3 chapters later, I look at the clock and decide I should go to bed, since it then way past my bedtime. I spent the next few days blowing through chapter after chapter (and staying up too late). The scales fell off of my eyes and suddenly I saw the absurdity of modern business thinking and the beauty of lean. Before, I thought Lean was something like the kanban cards I used to stock my kitchen (yes, my friend did teach me this) on a wider scale, but it is so much more.
After this book, Bill's blogs made perfect sense. I started spreading the word to those around me about the absurdity of overhead absorption, lowest landed piece costs, making machines run around the clock when you don't need that many parts, creating bogus factory efficiency numbers, building unwanted inventory at the end of the quarter, and other absurd practices I noticed around me.Read more ›

Paper Monitor
A service highlighting the riches of the daily press.
Paper Monitor is one of the few periodical digests on the interweb that feels duty-bound to cover a key aspect of the press - problem pages.
Dear Deidre has long been the best thing in the Sun, and now a cataclysmic event has taken place. Deidre is now over two pages instead of one.
And she now has the billing on "The World's No1 Agony Aunt".
On Wednesday she was just plain old "Deidre". On Thursday, she's become the world's best.
What happened overnight? Who was "The World's No 1 Agony Aunt" yesterday? Who bestows this title? A directorate of the UN, dedicated to resolving fictional-sounding sexual and social problems?
There's no explanation, but with 11, count 'em, letters, it's hard to be unhappy.
Today's highlight is probably the writer who says: "I have fallen for a lovely girl but she's no oil painting. I'm worried what my mates will say."
Deidre gives her usual sensible reply.
So how have the red-top rivals responded to this starting gun on the agony aunt arms race? There's no change in Dear Coleen in the Daily Mirror.
Just Jane in the Daily Star also retains the same format - one page but with a strip on the next page for the photo casebook.
The letter writers have a pithy turn of phrase.
One complains: "My girlfriend had a gastric band fitted. She's since lost eight stone in weight. The only problem is that her stretched flesh now hangs in folds, like tripe."

After winning many Genie Awards (the Canadian equivelant of the American Oscar) including best director and picture, as well as being hailed as a "Miramax Classic" on the box, one would think that the DVD would be filled with lots of added bonuses, and at the very least: a theatrical trailer. Alas, the Exotica DVD boasts no special features, if you don't count the gorgeous widescreen transfer, much to my own dismay.
Since many critics praised the film when it was released in 1994, especially Roger Ebert, there is hope that a new DVD will be created. The Criterion Collection includes numerous foreign, avant-garde, cultish films on DVD, most all of them boasting quite a few, excellent special features (especially the sadly-out-of-print Sid & Nancy DVD; but not for the feature-less Night Porter disc). One would hope, with the support of a few major critics and strong following, that Mirimax (or Criterion) would release a new version of this DVD, featuring all the added features, commentaries, bios that the film rightfully deserves.
The film is very much a paradox, sensual but sterile, intense but distant, hollow but haunting. It is a complex story with a relatively simple theme. The characters include Francis (Bruce Greenwood) as a Canadian government revenue auditor who is auditing the financials of an exotic pet store (whose owner Thomas is played by Don McKeller) while trying to exorcise his demons at a strip club called EXOTICA. During his nocturnal visits to the club he pays his niece Tracey (played by Sarah Polley) to baby-sit his seemingly absent daughter. The viewer gets to know the strip club DJ, Eric (Elias Koteas); a stripper, Christina (Mia Kirshner) who dances for Francis and happens to be Eric's ex-girlfriend; and the very pregnant (by Eric) club owner Zoe (Arsinee Khanjian) who is having an affair with Christina.
The plot is an example of elliptical storytelling in that it moves in a purposeful ever-circling way to slowly reveal the connections between the worlds of each character. There is enough misdirection to keep the viewer wary of their perceptions. They must pay complete attention and remember what they see.
There are significant technical reasons to like this film. It is first and foremost a director's film and Adam Egoyan's directing is amazing. A director is responsible for both casting and for directing their cast. For Exotica Egoyan added to his cast of regulars two of the best young actresses (Kirshner and Polley) in Canada. Kirshner's performance provides an extremely unusual combination of sensuality and thinly masked pain.Read more ›
Another characterstic that these directors share is that often their characters are not what one would call likeable. This is the case in Exotica. A Canadian Customs Inspector (David Hemblen) is assigned to audit the books of a nervous Toronto exotic pet shop owner. From the outset, we see that this is not going to be your typical CPA/customer relationship. Things get more intriguing when the inspector finds a pistol in the pet-shop owner's drawer and reacts enigmatically.
As the film progresses, the inspector's psyche gradually disintegrates, until finally there is a denouement of denouements at the end of the film. Finally, Egoyan lets the audience in on the source of the inspector's descent into emotional breakdown. No spoilers here, but suffice it to say that the ending provides resolution, without relying on clichés.
Another satisfying Egoyan film. Thoughful script. Uniformly excellent acting, cinematography, direction. Worth re-viewing.

I have an SSH key setup for git (using github) that works great. However - I recently started working on a certain directory (with a few git repositories under it) and on those repositories - each action I do - requires me to use a username and password.
Any other directory - everything works well.
I would add that the repositories there used to work on
svn and now we're using
git with them (in case it has any relevance). I did however try re-cloning and removing all
svn files - makes no difference.
Another thing I noticed - is the submodules also require username and password, but a submodule of the submodule works without them.
I'm really lost on it and it's really annoying - would appriciate help.

I hope this is posted in the right place.
I have a site with an old shopping cart still being served for backwards compatibility. I still get customers through it because out there are old offline cart pages directing them to our site. Since these are orders, I am reluctant to remove the old cart pages.
Trouble is, the company I bought the cart from is no more and the scripts are out of date. I suspect they are no longer fully secure.
My question is, how can I redirect a visitor who lands on any of these old pages if they don't exist? i.e. if I remove them?
Is there a way in cpanel to catch these people and send them to the new shopping cart - or any to any page I choose?

Magenta is the newest Cutie Pops doll, part of the Cutie Pops Swirly Brights line. This doll comes with eight Style Pops that snap into all of the heart-shaped places on the doll. The doll's dress can also be removed, and the two hair pieces pop off and on so kids can change the doll's hairstyle. There are other dolls in the Cutie Pops Swirly Brights line, and their clothes and Style Pops can be mixed and matched with Magenta's. A comb is also included.
Kids will really love this glittery and colorful doll. It's very easy to change the Style Pops, hair, and dress. Where little fingers can often struggle with changing fashions and especially hair, Cutie Pops Swirly Brights Magenta makes it easy for little ones to do quickly and easily.
Cutie Pops Swirly Brights Magenta is for ages 4 and up. This is great for girls at this age since the changing is very easy and appropriate for the level of fine motor skills at this age. Kids who also love changing the fashions and looks of their dolls will get a kick out of Magenta.
Additional Cutie Pops Swirly Brights dolls include Tangerine and Chiffon. Each is sold separately.
As with any toy with small parts, be sure to keep the pieces away from children 3 and under.

Fifteen-year veteran elementary teacher says "I quit". Parents need to know what is being done to their children – and it's not the teacher's fault! Also see followup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qZg4Wr3-l0k. How many local teachers feel the same way?
Teacher quits, refuses to create generation of test takers (video)January 7, 2013
This value Added Model system here in Florida is one of the worst evaluation systems ever. No wonder the FEA is trying to get rid of it.
Michelle Rhee continues her descent into parody. You might have thought that teaching students to read would be a good way to evaluate educational performance, but no. Rhee's StudentsFirst organization has released a report card grading states—on their education policies, not their educational results. In fact, not one of the states StudentsFirst ranks in the top five is in the top half of states on the National Assessment of Educational Progress, "the nation's report card," when it comes to eighth grade reading scores, and only one is in the top half when it comes to eighth grade math.
Louisiana is the top-rated state, according to StudentsFirst. It ranks 49th of 51 on eighth grade reading scores and 47th of 51 on eighth grade math scores.
Florida is StudentsFirst's second-best state according to ideology. According to educational results, Florida is 35th on reading and 42nd on math.
StudentsFirst says Indiana is third. The "nation's report card" says it's 30th on reading and 23rd on math.
The District of Columbia, where Rhee had her way from 2007 to 2010, comes in fourth according to Rhee's ranking system. According to the NAEP? Dead last.
Rhode Island is fifth in Rhee-land. It's 29th in both reading and math on the NAEP.
By contrast, of the 11 states Rhee rates as having the worst policies for education, three are in the top six for eighth grade reading scores on the NAEP, and four more are in the top 20. Another contrast: The three highest-scoring states on reading are Massachusetts, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Rhee scores them 14th, 21st and 18th.
Bear in mind that this complete disregard for educational results as measured by the gold-standard standardized test comes despite the fact that the StudentsFirst report card ranks states more highly for relying on standardized testing in teacher evaluations. (One reason the NAEP is the gold standard, by the way, is that it's less likely to be the subject of the kind of cheating that seems to have happened in D.C. under Rhee's leadership since it's not high-stakes so the incentive to cheat is low.)
The problem is at the state level. If you tear down the education system to the point that education of students is not the goal, it creates an opportunity for politicians to convince many that corporations have answers for students and teachers. Many are not aware that, by law, corporations' first responsibility is stockholder profits.
FCAT is just a "bite out of the apple". Try a Beginning , middle, and end of the year math test. Then there is FAIR test 3 times a year. Fluency test….I could go on and on…Why the DOE insists we test on material that has not been taught, I will never understand.
It does seem like more and more classes are not about learning, but about teaching to the test. And I'm sure teachers are frustrated about having to focus on the FCAT rather than whether students have truly mastered a concept. Learning is more than passing a standardized test.
My brother and I were talking the other day and he is trying to learn Spanish and is having trouble understanding direct and indirect objects.
By the time he was in high school, English teachers were no longer having students diagram sentences so it's no wonder he doesn't know the difference between a direct and indirect object.

Phoenix Suns
Jon Barry: Mike D'Antoni to Lakers 'makes sense'
After starting the season 1-4, the Los Angeles Lakers have already fired head coach Mike Brown.
Names like Indiana Pacers assistant Bryan Shaw, former Utah Jazz coach Jerry Sloan and former Suns coach Mike D'Antoni have already surfaced as possible replacements.
Source says Mike D'Antoni would be interested in Lakers job, that he'd listen.
— Chris Broussard (@Chris_Broussard) November 9, 2012
ESPN NBA Analyst Jon Barry was on with Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo and said he feels hiring D'Antoni "makes a whole lot of sense."
D'Antoni took over the Suns midway through the 2003-2004 season and would go on to lead Phoenix to four straight playoffs appearances. Alongside now-Lakers point guard Steve Nash, D'Antoni consistently had one of the most potent offenses in the league.
"It is a style of play that people in LA would love to watch," Barry said. "He has got Dwight Howard on the interior now to be the defender that he never had in Phoenix."

June 2, 2007
SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Junior catcher Logan Gelbrich's three-run homerun capped a five-run ninth-inning comeback but Minnesota sophomore Derek McCallum's bases loaded single ended the fourth-ranked University of San Diego Torero's season with a 6-5 loss in front of 1,188 at Tony Gwynn stadium in San Diego, Calif.
For San Diego (43-18), it was just the third time all season that the Toreros had lost two straight games. The Toreros will finish the season with a program-best 43 wins while also reaching a school-high ranking of fourth in the national polls.
Minnesota (41-17) improves to 28-0 when leading after eight innings and will face the loser of Cal State Fullerton-Fresno State on Saturday in an elimination game.
Gopher senior Kyle Baran led off the bottom of the 10th with a single and senior Sean Kommerstad's sacrifice bunt advanced him to second. Torero freshman reliever A. J. Griffin (6-2) then intentionally walked junior Bryan Jost and senior Kevin Carlson also followed with a walk to load the bases, setting up McCallum and his walk-off single.
But it wouldn't had happened had the Toreros not rallied in the ninth to force the extra frame. Entering their final at bat in the top half of the ninth inning in a 5-0 hole, junior Justin Snyder started the rally with a double and the Toreros' all-time hits leader senior Jordan Abruzzo singled to put runners at first and third with nobody out.
For Abruzzo it was 305th hit of his collegiate career and second of the afternoon to end the night for Gopher senior starter Dustin Brabender, who did not factor in the decision despite departing with his shutout in tact, tossing eight innings, surrendering two runs on seven hits with five strikeouts.
Junior Kyle Carr came on in relief and yielded an RBI single to senior Shane Buschini to put San Diego on the board trailing 5-1. Junior Josh Romanski followed with a chopper to first that Jost fielded cleanly and tossed to second base, but senior shortstop Dan Lyons mishandled the throw, allowing Abruzzo to score, bringing the tally to 5-2.
After senior Daniel Magness grounded out to first for the first out of the inning, Gelbrich hit a 2-1 pitch over the fence in right-center field to knot the score at five. The opposite field shot was Gelbrich's fourth of the season and ended the day for Carr.
In came Kyle Oslin (1-2) who retired junior Kevin Hansen on a ground out to short and sophomore Sean Nicol on a fly to right to end the inning. Oslin earned the win, recording 1.2 innings of work without allowing a single base runner.
Gelbrich led San Diego offensively, finishing the afternoon 2-for-4 with a homerun and three RBIs. Snyder and Abruzzo also tallied two hits for the Toreros.
The Toreros trailed the entire game as the Golden Gophers went ahead with two runs in the first inning. Minnesota lead off man Matt Nohelty reached on an error by San Diego's Nicol, who charged the ball at short and got caught in between hops resulting in the E-6 and the leadoff man aboard. After two failed bunt attempts by Lyons, San Diego starter Brian Matusz coaxed Lyons to chase a pitch out of the strike zone for the first out of the inning.
After Nohelty swiped second, senior Mike Mee turned on a Matusz 2-1 offering and hammered it over the Aztec Baseball Wall of Fame in right for an early 2-0 advantage.
Mee knocked in the Gophers third run of the game in the third, plating Lyons who reached second after smashing a two-out double to right center field. The Gophers padded the lead in the fourth when Komerstad pulled a 2-1 pitch over the wall in left to make it 4-0. It was the second home run that Matusz had surrendered on the day, despite entering the game having surrendered just six homeruns all season in 115 innings pitched.
Matusz did not factor in the decision, going 7.2 innings, surrendering five runs - four earned - on seven hits, with seven strikeouts, exiting the game with the Toreros trailing 4-0.
Mee led Minnesota on the box score, finishing the afternoon going 2-for-4 with a homerun and three RBIs. Baran, who put Minnesota ahead 5-0 when scoring on a bases-loaded walk in the eighth and Kommerstad each finished with two hits as to pace the Gopher attack.

Subsections (a), (b), (c), and (d) describe separate and distinct functions for purposes of applying this section. Whether a service provider qualifies for the limitation on liability in any one of those subsections shall be based solely on the criteria in that subsection, and shall not affect a determination of whether that service provider qualifies for the limitations on liability under any other such subsection.
Copyright holders know precisely what materials they own, and are thus better able to efficiently identify infringing copies than service providers like Veoh, who cannot readily ascertain what material is copyrighted and what is not.The court reinforced what most thought was basic common sense: that the copyright holder was better situated than the service provider to determine whether a given use was possibly infringing or not since the copyright holder would have better knowledge of who was authorized to use the work.
AT&T's read on this part of the DMCA, according to one of the company's executives, is that only the courts can determine whether someone is a "repeat infringer."Comcast stated that repeat notifications are enough. The courts haven't clarified it for anyone, which is why this case could be important.

Présentation de l'éditeur
MK Hall lived as a young adult in New York City in the fall of 1970 experiencing life on Pot—Sometimes engaging with it every day, sometimes going with no Pot at all. Cannabis is contraband and prohibited. Many people have enjoyed notorious Marijuana and at other times have been made fearful of arrest and detention. Many are jailed.
Hall spent four decades without benefit of equal opportunity employment because testing her would show THC, the active compound ingredient in Marijuana. It is better for her to paint, write, or clean to survive. Or to sell real estate. She is a professional realtor turned nonfiction writer in an effort to help turn the tide against Pot with her 'drop in the bucket'. Another drop is you who read this book telling the story of Pot. Learn how we may achieve the satisfaction of tolerance."

With over 75,000 copies in print, this revised and updated guide offers timely information and inspiration from a "sanctity of life" perspective. Real answers to real questions about abortion appear in logical and concise form. The final chapter -- "Fifty Ways to Help Unborn Babies and Their Mothers"-- is worth the price of this book alone.

I install Visual C++ 2008 Express to develop code using native Win32 API. However, the MSDN Express I can install with it doesn't show help on Windows API functions - but only on .NET Even online help isn't helpful and keep linking to MFC.
How can I integrate MSDN with Windows API documentation (SDK) into my Express 2008?

Social justice and community building are big passions for me. I'm looking to meet people who share those values, who are in touch with their own sense of caring–both about those who are close and about the world in general–but who can also be relaxed, playful, and enjoy life.
Music: I find myself listening to a lot of independent music on XPN these days, but have fun singing along to pop music of all kinds. As a swing dancer and DJ I also listen to and love old jazz music like Sidney Bechet, Count Basie, and tons of other big band and dixieland jazz musicians.
I haven't had a tv in ages and I've missed so many movies over the years that my friends organized an intervention last summer. I was a huge Simpsons fan at one point. More recently I've gotten into 30 Rock and The Wire, which places me several years behind current trends.
Foods: I love all kinds of food, especially Mexican, Italian, Thai, the bananas foster french toast I had at an amazing cafe in New Orleans.
Close friends
Time to relax and connect with people
Beautiful places in the natural world
Also, it's probably worth saying that in the limited number of OKC dates I've been on I've found that a romantic connection doesn't often happen on a first date. I'm ok with that, and think it's pretty natural for it to take meeting more than once to go from being strangers who met on the internet to people who are genuinely interested in each other. So I don't worry much about there being a spark on a first date, and am happy if it ended with a hug and a sense that I met someone I'd like to know better. Internet dating does not seem to value patiently building a connection with a person when so many other profiles are just a click away, but I find that patience is needed for a real connection to grow.
