Now this is a League Championship Series. The New York Yankees and Los Angeles Angels had the most wins in the major leagues this year, they scored the most runs in the major leagues, they each swept through the Division Series, and each team knows -- with the way the past few years have gone in the postseason -- that getting this far simply is not satisfying enough. This series has everything. It has history. It has Mark Teixeira against his old teammates, Bobby Abreu against his old team. The two teams split the season series 5-5 and are playing their best at the right time. It has all the makings of a great series.
Here are five questions:
1. Is Alex Rodriguez on his way to a monster postseason?
It certainly looks that way. The look on his face when he drilled a two-out RBI single in Game 1 against the Twins was one of liberation, as if he was telling himself, "Yes, I can do this." Before there were only questions -- he had had only one RBI in his previous 16 postseason games -- and now, it appears, there is only redemption. The game-tying home run off Joe Nathan in the ninth inning, saving Game 2, was perhaps another epiphany for A-Rod: "Yes, I can also hit for power in the postseason." And then he did it again with a game-tying home run off Carl Pavano in the seventh inning of Game 3. Rodriguez hit five home runs in 24 at-bats against the Angels during the regular season. And more good news for the Yankees: It seems Teixeira has joined Rodriguez in this redemptive postseason. There were those around baseball who wondered if Teixeira was up for being his best at the most important time, and now we might have that answer. Teixeira's first home run in his postseason career also was the first walk-off HR of his career. It won Game 2, leaving the park in 2.88 seconds.
2. How dangerous is that Angels offense?
It is relentless. They are the only team in history with 11 players with 50-plus RBIs, they tied the record for most players (10) with 100 hits and tied for the most players (nine) with 60-plus runs scored. "This is the best offensive team that I've been a part of," said Angels manager Mike Scioscia. Never was that more evident than in Game 2 of the LDS, when shortstop Erick Aybar -- a great defender, but, like everyone else in the lineup, a difficult out -- drilled a two-run triple off Josh Beckett to break the game open. Abreu deserves some credit for the Angels' offensive turnaround: They scored 118 more runs than they did in 2008. Abreu is one of the game's most patient hitters, and the effect seems clear -- the Angels were last in the league in pitches seen last year, but fifth in 2009. Against the Yankees in 10 games this year, the Angels scored 65 runs. First baseman Kendry Morales went 12-for-32 with three homers. Catcher Mike Napoli went 11-for-22. Look for the Angels to do what they have done to the Yankees several times in the postseason in this decade -- putting pressure on the Yankees defense by running, and taking the extra base, at all times. No team went from first to third on singles more often than the 2009 Angels.
3. Will the Yankees catch Jose Molina in A.J. Burnett's starts?
They should, and this time, Jorge Posada should act more like the team guy he has always been. When Molina started in Game 2 of the LDS, Posada whined about it. He had a point; he had started 79 of the past 80 postseason games. No catcher in history had even come close to his starts behind the plate in the postseason. But this point is even stronger: Burnett pitches better with Molina back there in part because Molina is a much better defensive catcher than Posada (one major league manager said Posada has trouble handling pitches above his mask). Entering the postseason, Burnett's ERA with Posada catching was 4.96, which was the highest of any of the 10 catchers who had started at least 10 of Burnett's career starts, and was significantly higher than Molina's 3.28 with Burnett. So manager Joe Girardi chose the comfort of his pitcher over the feelings of his catcher. It has been done before. In 2000, Braves manager Bobby Cox started Greg Maddux's personal catcher, left-handed hitting Paul Bako, over Javy Lopez (24 home runs that year) against Cardinals left-hander Rick Ankiel in Game 1 of the LDS. Maddux gave up six runs in the first inning, but Ankiel was taken out in the second inning. Cox hit Lopez for Bako in the top of the second before he got an at-bat, but didn't pinch-hit for the next batter, Maddux, which had to be a first in major league postseason history, and likely a last.
4. How good is that Angels starting pitching?
It was as good as any in the American League for the last month and a half of the season, and then it was even better in the playoffs against the Red Sox. In Game 1, John Lackey combined with relievers on the first shutout in club history in 53 postseason games, and handed the Red Sox (no extra-base hits) their first shutout in their past 69 postseason games. In Game 2, Jered Weaver was almost as good, stifling the Red Sox lineup. After those two, they have three more options to start a game, with Scott Kazmir, Joe Saunders and Ervin Santana. The Angels will need four starting pitchers in the LCS, but they have five.
5. How good is the Yankees starting pitching?
Like A-Rod, CC Sabathia got rid of a lot of his baggage with a solid performance in winning Game 1 against the Twins. His career postseason ERA had been above 7.00. Those around him will say, and correctly, that in the past two postseasons he was exhausted by the regular season. Not this year. He got normal rest in the final two months, so he shouldn't be tired this year. The bigger question is Andy Pettitte, who had mild shoulder issues down the stretch, and was hit hard by the Angels this year: 0-2, 7.88 ERA, 21 hits and eight walks in 16 innings. Then there is a question about the No. 4 spot in the Yankees rotation. Will Joba Chamberlain get the ball, or will his two relief appearances in the LDS convince the Yankees that, at least for this postseason, he is better off in the pen? But if Chamberlain doesn't start Game 4, will the Yankees start Chad Gaudin?

That's me. David sometimes lets me get ahead.
Crossing the stream in Frijoles Canyon on the "bouncy bridge" Weeeeee!
I don't think this section of trail sees a lot of maintenance or traffic.
Another stream crossing. I'm pretty sure he went in moments after this shot.
Indeed we crossed the stream numerous times.
Bear scratchings?
An interesting sign in that this isn't really an intersection. It was reassuring nonetheless.

ATHENS, Greece (AP) -- Greece's finance ministry says it is on target to achieve a primary budget surplus in 2013, a key target set in the country's bailout agreements.
Deputy Finance Minister Christos Staikouras said Tuesday that the core government's primary surplus _ that is, not counting the cost of paying interest on existing debt _ was 691 million euros ($956 million).
He said the primary surplus for overall government spending is expected to be 812 million euros ($1.1 billion). The official figure will be released in about one month.
Greece has promised to balance its budget before interest payments to qualify for a major debt relief deal expected later this year.

Captain Cook stars as England cruise
Follow England against India via our match-by-match page - all the reports, reaction, video highlights and live photos
Captain Alastair Cook led by example with a rapid unbeaten 80 as England heaped further misery on India by winning the second match of the NatWest Series.
He batted with near total authority in steering his side to a comfortable seven-wicket victory under the Rose Bowl floodlights, achieved with the luxury of five deliveries of their allocated 23 overs to spare.
Cook built superbly on a destructive 25-ball 46 from Craig Kieswetter, with whom he shared an opening stand of 67 in little more than six overs that did so much to propel England to a target of 188 on a reliable surface.
Ian Bell and Ravi Bopara made breezy contributions before Samit Patel - as he did in the Twenty20 international - wrapped up another resounding triumph over a side who surely cannot wait for this most miserable of tours to end.
For injury-ravaged India, the wait for a first competitive win goes on. They were whitewashed 4-0 in the npower Test series and beaten in the Twenty20 international and, judging by the manner in which they leaked runs tonight, may come to look back on the washed out opening ODI as the closest they came to breaking that duck.
If the tourists, who are missing eight players through injury, had reason to be satisfied with posting 187 for seven, they were made to think again during a brutal yet stylish assault from Kieswetter, who stuck four fours and three sixes.
Cook was more measured by comparison - he faced 63 deliveries - but the flip over the shoulder while on one knee, as well as the reverse-sweep, underlined his growing confidence and stature as a one-day batsman.
Earlier, Ajinkya Rahane's impressive 54 formed the centrepiece of a seemingly imposing India total that was bookended by rapid contributions from Parthiv Patel and Suresh Raina.
Parthiv went a considerable way to making up for a five-hour rain delay by flaying 28 off 18 balls at the top of the order, while fellow left-hander Raina was even more destructive as he smote 40 off just 19.
Raina was one of three wickets to fall in the final over as Tim Bresnan finished with 3-43, a return bettered only by Graeme Swann, who defied conditions hardly conducive to spin to claim 3-33.
Bresnan came in for the harshest treatment from Parthiv after England won the toss and play got under way at 7pm - his second over contained two meaty leg-side sixes - and the hosts were therefore thankful when James Anderson located his edge via a back-footed slash.
With the exception of a couple of exquisite strokes over the off-side field, Rahul Dravid was content to let the impressively mature Rahane do the bulk of the scoring in a 79-run stand for the second wicket that was broken only when Dravid swept Swann powerfully to Anderson at short midwicket.
Rahane combined power, placement and astute shot selection en route to a 40-ball half-century - to go with scores of 61 in the Twenty20 international and 40 in the opening ODI - only to give Swann a smart return catch above his head after Virat Kohli was easily taken by Bell at long-on.
Although Mahendra Singh Dhoni failed to clear Bell off Jade Dernbach despite his trademark 'helicopter' follow-through, Raina helped plunder 16 off one Dernbach over during the batting powerplay and continued to free his arms to good effect before India again faltered late on.
Raina, whose six over point off the front foot was the most memorable shot of the innings, swung Bresnan to Ben Stokes at deep square-leg; Manoj Tiwary fell three balls later to a brilliant diving catch from the busy Bell at his customary long-on; and Ravichandran Ashwin was run out chasing a bye off the final delivery.
Kieswetter's initial assault, which featured three wonderful sixes over log-on and a couple of trademark drives in the arc between cover and mid-off, was largely responsible for getting England ahead of the required rate in reply.
By the time he was trapped in front on the move by Vinay Kumar, India were reeling, and Bell maintained the momentum before, on 25, he picked out the only man in the off-side ring when driving at Ashwin.
While Cook knew a large part of his task was to occupy the crease, he nevertheless wasted few opportunities to score, most notably hoisting Ashwin for six over midwicket.
Bopara, having batted sensibly, needlessly gave Ashwin the charge to gift Kohli a simple catch at cover, but it said much for the efforts of Kieswetter and Cook that the result had long since ceased to be in doubt.

Leukemia & Lymphoma
Types of Blood Disorders
In this article
Blood disorders can affect any of the three main components of blood:
- Red blood cells, which carry oxygen to the body's tissues
- White blood cells, which fight infections
- Platelets, which help blood to clot
Blood disorders can also affect the liquid portion of blood, called plasma.
Recommended Related to Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma
Childhood leukemia, the most common type of cancer in children and teens, is a cancer of the white blood cells. Abnormal white blood cells form in the bone marrow. They quickly travel through the bloodstream and crowd out healthy cells. This increases the body's chances of infection and other problems. As tough as it is for a child to have cancer, it's good to know that most children and teens with childhood leukemia can be successfully treated.
Read the Childhood Leukemia article > >
Treatments and prognosis for blood diseases vary, depending on the blood condition and its severity.
Blood Disorders Affecting Red Blood Cells
Blood disorders that affect red blood cells include:
Anemia : People with anemia have a low number of red blood cells. Mild anemia often causes no symptoms. More severe anemia can cause fatigue, pale skin, and shortness of breath with exertion.
Iron-deficiency anemia: Iron is necessary for the body to make red blood cells. Low iron intake and loss of blood due to menstruation are the most common causes of iron-deficiency anemia. It may also be caused by blood loss from the GI tract because of ulcers or cancer. Treatment includes iron pills, or rarely, blood transfusion.
Anemia of chronic disease: People with chronic kidney disease or other chronic diseases tend to develop anemia. Anemia of chronic disease does not usually require treatment. Injections of a synthetic hormone, epoetin alfa (Epogen or Procrit), to stimulate the production of blood cells or blood transfusions may be necessary in some people with this form of anemia.
Pernicious anemia (B12 deficiency): A condition that prevents the body from absorbing enough B12 in the diet. This can be caused by a weakened stomach lining or an autoimmune condition. Besides anemia, nerve damage (neuropathy) can eventually result. High doses of B12 prevent long-term problems.
Aplastic anemia: In people with aplastic anemia, the bone marrow does not produce enough blood cells, including red blood cells. A viral infection, drug side effect, or an autoimmune condition can cause aplastic anemia. Medications, blood transfusions, and even a bone marrow transplant, may be required to treat aplastic anemia.
Autoimmune hemolytic anemia: In people with this condition, an overactive immune system destroys the body's own red blood cells, causing anemia. Medicines that suppress the immune system, such as prednisone, may be required to stop the process.

GOP candidate: LeBron not top concern
Updated: June 23, 2010, 4:43 PM ETAssociated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The Republican seeking to unseat Ohio's governor this fall says he's "not singing in any chorus" to persuade LeBron James to stay in the state.
Former U.S. Rep. John Kasich told FOX News radio host Alan Colmes last week that, compared to the 400,000 people who've lost their jobs, the last person he's worried about is the two-time NBA MVP for the Cleveland Cavaliers. James becomes a free agent July 1.
In the interview, Kasich also says "we all hope he'll stay in Cleveland."

You can see it in action here http://katesgasis.com/archives/.
The installation was a breeze. Just upload the file kgarchives.php to your /wp-content/plugins folder and create a page with posts <--KGSortForm--> and <--KGSortArch-->.
It lets you sort your archive by months and then group it by category before showing you the daily posts within that category.

If you want to show only all the post in a specified month just select the month in the archive form. To display all, select All Months.
Geez, it's that easy.
page not found!
What page cannot be found? The archives?
worked this time :) it must be a UK thing, every host hates us...
Does this protect password protected posts, and does it include or excluse drafts/private entries?
It protects password protected posts and does not include drafts and private entries.
Call me stupid... go ahead.
Now that your done with that.
Is this supposed to place a button on the write page display like the comment form plugin? I'm assuming not because your instructions state to manually place the two sections of code.
Secondly, when I used the code (
<--KGSortForm--><--KGSortArch-->) it displayed the tags vice the archives.
Any thoughts?
I'm sorry if the tags did not display correctly here. If you have read the readme.txt you can find the instructions there. Anyway, here <--KGSortForm--> and <--KGSortArch--> .
Damn, this post does not display ampersands correctly either. <!--KGSortForm--> and <!--KGSortArch-->. Hope this works.
There, use my last post. Again, my mistake I thought it would display correctly if I use amps.
Yep that did it.
But funny I did use the correct tags as per the readme file, for some reason it burped. A second attempt corrected the problem.
Update: Ver1.2 is out. It now hides future posts. You can get it here.
Is it possible to show all the categories for a month without grouping them into categories? I am asking because I would just like a purely chronological list and have a separate category archive.
What do you mean? Like Sort all posts for a month without grouping them in categories.

If it's what you want, Shawn Grimes has a similar plugin. In fact mine is based on his. You can visit his site at http://www.hexfactor.com.
You've got it. Like you can see here:
I had a quick look at the plugin, and although I understand that it's more or less a matter of removing the loop in which categories are processed, php still intimidates me somewhat.
If you'd be able to show me how I'd be very grateful indeed :)
Oi, didn't see you there. Thanks for the tip, it is indeed exactly what I am looking for.
Oh, and good work on your plugin, despite me not using it :)
Due to numerous complaints (2 or 3 actually) that KGArchives is generating huge amount of queries (true), I have released an update.
KGArchives v1.3 is almost a complete rewrite and is 99% efficient (generates only 4 queries as opposed to 3x your the number of posts) and faster (less db queries, less time to render).
The upgrade can be downloaded at http://katesgasis.com/downloads/kgarchives-1_3.zip.
Version 2.0 released.
Used SAJAX backend.
Version 2.1 released.
Dropped the SAJAX backend - too bloated for a simple task.
Options to categorized or not, display all months or the current initially, and exclude categories in the result.
<kgarchives categorized="true" initialmonth="current" excudecat="asides" />
im getting an error, but an error that doesnt say its an error. whats wrong is, i put your tags in, and yes i have read the readme file, it it doesnt show up in my categories area. ill tell you how my wp is configured:
1. i have permalinks enabled.
2. my archives pages is /archives/
3. the post slug is archives
it just doesnt display, at all. when i view source, it just shows the tags i put into the post but still, doesnt show up on the browser.
and yes, for the obvious question...yes, my plugin is activated.
Is there a way (in the latest version, 2.9) to get rid of the dropdown? I don't want/need it, but I love the functionality of being able to exclude categories.
Yes, it can be hidden. Please leave a comment on the plugin's permanent page and I'll send you the modified version.
Great thanks!
I have another question... is there a way to get this to work with the Post Levels plugin? (http://fortes.com/2005/12/27/post-levels-10) The private posts aren't showing up, even when I'm logged in (they're showing up on my 'regular' archive page though)

Coach Walsh, bless his soul, was a stickler for all phases of the game...from QB to OL to DBs to DLs, etc....but NOT for STs. He never drafted, to my knowledge , a person explicitly used on STs. I don't recall where we got our punters, but place kickers he added as an afterthot. Think back and how many more SBs would Coach Walsh have won if he had been as insistent on great ST play as Coach Harbaugh has. Coach H believes in 3 phases of the game. O, D, AND ST. It is no secret that our STs this yr were all pro, from Akers to Ginn to Lee. Coach Walsh acquired ST players as an afterthot. Coach H has STs right there with O and D as equally important.. The Walsh 9ers had John Taylor returning punts, along with other WRs . Coach H had a designated PR in Ginn, and all would agree he was terrific.
So here comes a thot. Why not have Kyle Williams do as many practice punt returns as Ginn, so if Ginn is injured, we have a guy of equal ability. I don't blame Kyle for his errors. Why should he, in the heat of battle, know instinctively to get the hell out of the way of the football once it is on the ground? Answer: because he never really practiced it. So I am suggesting we carry a pair of WRs, both of whom get equal # of practice punts, and both of whom can play PR well. Kyle , if he was given instruction at all, probably didn't get much. Ginn got the huge majority of punts to field in practice. So don't blame Kyle Williams for the loss. It was flukey , as well as bad luck to lose Ginn, so late in the season. Kyle got little if no time practicing all phases of fielding punts. It was great that Coach H demanded quality STs. It was a fluke that was our weakest link going into the NFC championship. So this yr, let's see if Coach has a second WR he uses to practice fielding punts, and who learns the ins and outs of the trade...plus being a WR.
Just being a WR and fielding a punt doesn't cut it. Lots and lots of instruction and practice have to go into punt fielding. Kyle Williams isn't to blame here. The kid never got schooled nor did extensive practice at PR. It was bad luck. Coach had made provisions for strong STs. But this yr I bet he has a second PR who also gets instructed in the art of PR, and also catches lots of punts...as a backup if the same situation occurs this yr. Face it. STs got us a number of wins this yr. It was exciting to watch as no other SF coach had ever stressed STs. Harbaugh did and this is what he got for thanks. I bet he doubles down on PR this coming season,.

Battle begins: Qantas boss forces PM's hand
- From: news.com.au
- October 29, 2011
- PM takes Qantas to Fair Work Australia
- Qantas needs to compete in global market
- Qantas forces Government to negotiating table
- Live: How the dispute happened
PINT-SIZED aviation chief Alan Joyce is now the centre of a massive showdown over the Government's workplace relations policies and the priorities of the Government itself.
The Government will now have to choose between the structural reform it urges a modern Australian economy to adopt, and the dated industrial law of the workplace jungle it claims to have eliminated.
Joyce's lock-out of Qantas workers today will dominate the week of Parliament ahead with the Opposition using it to claim the Fair Work Act promotes rather than limits industrial action.
The focus will be intensified by the fact the dispute involves Qantas, a national flag carrier and a prized Australian corporate possession.
The Tony Abbott Opposition is expected to argue that the Government could have used a section of the Fair Work Act which would have immediately halted industrial action - by the unions and the airline.
Instead it used a section of the act which referred the matter to Fair Work Australia to make a decision. This, the Opposition is likely to say, points to Government partiality for the unions.
But the intense core of the debate will be more about restructuring than workplace reform. The central argument will be that Qantas needs to change, or fly into a stork of global competition it will not survive.
In 1977 some 44 per cent of Australians flying out of their country did so on Qantas. Now it is more like 18 per cent. And a significant proportion of them do so on the Frequent Flier points they earn from domestic travel.
The rest go on the cheaper Mid-East and Asian airlines competing in the Australian market.
Joyce would argue that the international arm of Qantas is demanding a greater proportion of airline funds, and returning less. There has to be a change.
Buffering Qantas against the huge pressures of international competition on one hand, against the slow and costly battle...that's the choice.

ok and how many people were flying internationally in 1977? And how much choice was there in terms of airlines in 1977? Highly misleading statistics. As for the Qantas frequent flyer points being used internationally, I don't see this as a problem considering how much money Qantas actually earns from this. They lose a bit on the international side but gain so much more money from this overall.
Jeremy of Longley Tas Posted at 6:05 PM October 30, 2011
Poor QANTAS so poor they can only afford to give their CEO a $2million oay rise if they screw over the people who do the work that makes them money. Yes Tony Abbot would solve this problem by simply putting any worker who strikes in prison and forcing them to accept the crumbs off the CEO's table. I think Tony has forgotten what lost the LIbs government and his predecessor his seat/ Think hard Tony. I know its not something you are good at.

Search the plugin database (and the forums) for domain mapping. There's a plugin that'll do this for you.
Excuse me for not giving a direct link. Locked down dumb terminal with no copy/paste and only one browser pane.
but domain-mapping just forwards the request for a domain to another site right?
That would mean I'd have to have another site on the domain I am forwarding to.
Basically the idea is that people will browse http://domain1.com and visit post http://domain.com/post1 but are actually taking the data of http://domain.mainsite.com and reading a post from http://domain.mainsite.com/post1
As cynic said, the domain mapping tool is what you need, it's here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-mu-domain-mapping/
They obviously need to have the domain name first. Go to their DNS and create entries that point the domain to your web hosting server ip address.
Next, go to your web host cpanel or equiv, and you need to map the incoming domain name to a folder in your hosting server. This will be the folder you have the WPMS installed.
Final step, once you've got the above plugin installed, go and add the mapping for the new domain name and mark it as primary, this way when wordpress receives a request from that domain name (and wordpress receives it because it's mapped at your host server to the wordpress directory), the wordpress domain mapping plugin will ensure the user coming from the outside sees the correct domain name.
There is an added benefit, that the existing http://sitename.mainsite.com will still work, but if you marked the mapped directory as Primary (above) then when someone comes into it from that address, it will be remapped to the new http://sitename.com
I have a setup exactly as described. I have a placeholder root account
I have no subdomains off it, instead I have three other domains which all point to it:
I even have two further subdomains off one of the above:
Each of the six blogs above are hosted in one wordpress install and all appear as totally separate blogs.

None of the WooCommerce themes look remotely like what I'm going for and I just want to put the correct files in my theme, put the correct hooks where they need to go and that's it.
Where can I find that?

OK so I have been looking around for an answer but I am not seeing any with a solution.
I am running MultiSite and have a mobile version running a real sub domain starting with m.website.com
WordPress does not allow me to visit this domain name and instead says that the domain does not exists and offers to register it.
How can I tell WordPress to ignore the m. sub domain and let the user go to the actual sub domain?

"the big apple" New York City by katmag
New York City Travel Guide: 15,944 reviews and 32,187 photos
The Empire State Building was designed in the Art Deco style of architecture. It's more than a quarter of a mile high, 103 floors with an observatory on the 86th floor. The building opened to the public in 1931.
Interesting facts:
1. The Empire State Building only took one year and 45 days to build. The cost of the building (without land) was only $24,718,000! (the onset of the Depression halved the anticipated cost of the building.)
2. In 1945 at the end of World War II, an Army Air Corps B-25 twin-engine bomber plane crashed into the 79th floor of the building in dense fog.

Discovery Learning Theory
Benjamin Bloom
Export (PDF)
Benjamin Bloom
"For most of the 20th century, the conventional wisdom was that teachers were limited in what they could do to help large numbers of children succeed in school" (Anderson,2002,p1). This meant that students without parents involved in their early development were at a disadvantage, and did poorly later in life. Teachers were unable to help all of their students, so they would focus on the method they felt would help the most students learn. Benjamin Bloom, the son of Russian immigrants, changed all of that. He earned his Undergraduate and Master's degrees at Penn State and completed his doctoral work at the University of Chicago in 1942 (Anderson,2002,p1). He worked there for the next 17 years, studying the psychology of learning and teaching methods. It was there that Bloom created Mastery Learning Theory.
Mastery Learning Theory concluded that teachers must vary their teaching methods, "Because students vary in their learning styles and aptitudes" (Guskey, 2007, p10). Students have unique ways of learning, so one way of teaching is simply not enough. Because all students are different, "no single method of instruction works best for all" (Guskey, 2007, p16). Students learn and grow at different levels. The idea of the theory is to differentiate instruction in order for all students to master the concept at hand. "Bloom suggested that educators at all levels must differentiate instruction to better meet their individual learning needs" (Guskey, 2007, p10). Teachers must utilize a variety of strategies to teach concepts to students. "Bloom saw value in the traditional practice of organizing the concepts and skills to be learned into instructional units. He also thought it vital for teachers to assess student learning at the end of each unit" (Guskey, 2007, p11). Students need to be tested at the end of each unit for the teacher to assess whether or not the students understood the information presented in the unit. These tests should be used to "diagnose individual learning difficulties and to prescribe remediation procedures" (Guskey, 2007, p12). If a student is not performing well on a test then the teacher needs to teach the information in a new way, but without spending too much time on the concept. Bloom suggests students "rework the answers they got wrong, look them up, but use what they learned to go back and review the material" (Guskey, 2007, p12). The students must go back and retry only the questions they did not grasp the first time; they are not relearning the information they already mastered.
According to Bloom, when using mastery learning, "teachers first organize the concepts and skills they want students to learn into instructional units that typically involve approximately 1–2 weeks of instructional time" (Guskey, 2007, p12). Teachers should begin at the most basic level of the content. The instructional unit should incorporate Bloom's taxonomy, which begins with knowledge. When a teacher organizes concepts into units it provides places to pause and assess the students' knowledge. This assessment should be used to investigate where the students are in their learning process and modify or review concepts within the unit. It is also "designed to give students information, or feedback, on their learning" (Guskey, 2007, p12). Then, once the students learn things like vocabulary and basic facts, they move on to the second step, comprehension. Once they master comprehension, students must apply their knowledge, analyze it, synthesize and evaluate it. At this point, students are able to take responsibility for their learning and see what they need to work on to master all concepts within the unit. "The correctives typically are matched to each item or set of prompts within the assessment so that students need work on only those concepts or skills not yet mastered" (Guskey, 2007, p12). Once the teacher sees what the student needs to work on, then the teacher can go back and create specific activities that are tailored to students' learning needs. Once this process is completed, all students should have mastered all concepts in the unit.
echnology and Learning
Bloom's theory of mastery learning can be applied using technology because students are able to use alternative materials to help grasp the main concept in a unit. They may identify alternative learning resources for students to use when they are relearning concepts they did not understand the first time. The student "may simply suggest sources of additional practice, such as study guides, independent or guided practice activities, or collaborative group activities "(Guskey, 2007, p13). The student can use different types of materials such as "different textbooks, learning kits, alternative materials, DVDs, videos, or computerized instructional lessons"(Guskey, 2007, p13). Enrichment activities such as iMovie, wiki, and blogs can be used to help students understand the concepts in a different way. Also, teachers are utilizing programs like Read 180, a Scholastic computer program, to help assess students. "The software analyzes, monitors, tracks, and reports on student accuracy, noting not only incorrect answers, but also the types of errors made and the time of the response" (Scholastic,2008,p1). If the students can be assessed and also given feedback, it frees the teacher to help other students individually. "According to how the student performs, the software continually adjusts instruction offering students immediate feedback" (Guskey, 2007, p12). It shows the student immediately what he or she must work on, before the student can forget the information or absorb the wrong answers.

MNGOP Rep. Ernie Leidiger owes over $100,000 in overdue taxes, blames Obama
Who you gonna blame? O-ba-ma!
Rep. Ernie Leidiger, R-Mayer, has three tax liens filed against him and reportedly owes $144,000 in overdue state and federal taxes.
SEE ALSO: Rep. Ernie Leidiger outed for inviting Bradlee Dean to lead House prayer
Is the failing small business owner from the party of personal accountability being accountable? Of course not! During an interview with the Chaska Herald yesterday, the freshman legislator pinned his problems on the man Republicans love to hate -- President Barack Hussein Obama.
Leidiger claims he owes less than $144,000 and is working with the federal and state governments to figure out a payment agreement.
"One of my companies is a victim of the Obama economy," Leidiger told the Herald, adding that the business, Brothers Office Furniture, went out of business and had to lay off all of its 30 employees.
More from the Herald:
Leidiger said if the Obama administration had not done a federal stimulus program the business would have been fine.
"It's not a pretty thing to go through," Leidiger said. "This is why I ran. Small businesses are getting screwed by the Obama economy. We've got to reduce government spending."
But according to the Brick City Blog, Leidiger has benefited from government assistance for years, dating back to his taxpayer-subsidized educations at the U.S. Naval Academy and the U.S. Naval War College.
In July 2009, Leidiger received a $500,000 Patriot Express loan from the Small Business Administration for another of his businesses, Jelco Parts. Just months later, Jelco started falling behind on its taxes.
SBA Patriot Express Loans are available to veterans who own small businesses, and are 90% federally guaranteed. This means that if Jelco Parts defaults on the loan, taxpayers will pay for 90% of the outstanding loan amount. Just months after receiving the $500,000 federally guaranteed loan, Leidiger started falling behind on his federal and state taxes.
It appears that taxpayers will be on the hook for a lot of money, based on the tax liens and other recent events. Jelco was evicted from its Brooklyn Park offices in August 2010. Then, [Brick City] reported on September 6th that Jelco Parts had been administratively dissolved by the State of Minnesota for failure to pay its registration fee.
Leidiger's tax difficulties didn't escape the notice of House Minority Leader Paul Thissen, D-Minneapolis, who blasted Leidiger for hypocritically relying on government in his business dealings while denouncing it in the legislature.
In an interview with the Star Tribune, Thissen said:
Leidiger, like his Republican legislative colleagues, spent the last two years railing against government at all levels. It comes as a surprise to find out that Leidiger's business happily took half a million dollars in taxpayer support in 2009. Rep. Leidiger owes an immediate explanation to his constituents and to the millions of small businesses and families across Minnesota who play by the rules every day, year after year.
Leidiger won 65 percent of the vote in his heavily Republican district in 2010, the Strib notes.
Before Leidiger's tax problems were revealed, the Brick City Blog put his rely-on-government-yet-denounce-it hypocrisy in its broader context:
Leidiger says "government is the problem" -- yet, government has been there at nearly every step of the way in his adult life. He served in the Navy and got two taxpayer-funded degrees. His business is supported by a $500,000 SBA loan -- guaranteed by the federal government and originated with fees paid by the taxpayer. His business has had over $16,000 in state contracts since 2008. He is the recipient of numerous government benefit programs due to his military service and his position as a state legislator.
Would Ernie Leidiger have the same level of achievement today without the products of government to help him on the way? It's impossible to say, but the journey certainly would have been more difficult. And now that he's made it, Ernie Leidiger has set out to undo the sorts of programs that allow people to have the same journey he has had. He's pulling up the ladder, leaving future generations (and those pushed to the sidelines by our current economic woes) to fend for themselves. That's what concerns me the most here.
This is exactly the kind of "leadership" that we don't need. Being ignorant of your past and our present is no way to point this state towards the future.
Yesterday afternoon, Leidiger released a statement responding to the recent reportage about his tax problems. To read it in full, click to page two.
Many small businesses have experienced financial difficulties in these uncertain, troubling economic times. My office furniture business was successful for almost five years, employing 30 people with sales that grew every year, reaching almost $2.5 million at its height in 2008. Our business was closely linked to commercial real estate, so when that market faltered, so did ours. Things were looking good by the middle of 2009, only to crater again as uncertainty grabbed hold of the economy.
As businesses downsized, demand for our products dropped, orders were canceled, and we had to downsize ourselves. We tried to stay afloat by shifting to work in furniture removal and liquidation, but that, too, soon lost its demand.
By 2011, we had to close our doors, and with that came the loss of 30 direct jobs as well as work for the vendors we worked with. The pain of closing its doors was difficult for me and the employees and family members who made our successful years possible. You never want to see something you pour your life into fail.
I am the last office holder standing from our operations, and I am the one who is taking the responsibility to finish it. I have a payment plan in place with the state to pay off our remaining tax liability and am in negotiations with the federal government to do the same.

Goodbye Gaza, Hello Paris...
If you listen to the show regularly, at some point in the last few years you've probably heard Neal talk with Steven Erlanger. He's been the Jerusalem Bureau Chief for The New York Times since 2004. Now, he's getting ready to move on... to Paris, actually, to take up the Bureau Chief position there for the Times. In his years covering Israel, Gaza, and the surrounding region, he's seen political progress, violent setbacks, significant elections, presidential visits, and the list goes on. Before he leaves Jerusalem, we'll talk with him one last time from the Middle East, about what's happened there — and what hasn't — in the last four years.

I must take issue with Mr. Erlanger for his opening summary of the current state of affairs in Gaza. If Gaza is "semi-occupied," then inmates of San Quentin are "semi-incarcerated." The prison analogy is apt: by controlling what and who goes in and out, Israel exercises control over every aspect of life in Gaza.
I wish NPR, as well as other media, would help people realize the outrageous nature of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and East Jerusalem as well as Gaza. Imagine if, in some alternative universe, Canada suddenly commandeered the greater Seattle area, installed checkpoints, built Canadian-only roads, constructed Canadian-only luxury suburbs, etc. Would you blame Seattle's residents for resisting their occupation? No? And how is the actual Israeli occupation different from this imagined Canadian one?

It's a little strange to go from character to character. But I guess, I'll get used to it. The story is very close to the original. I like this fact. Your writing is very good.
| Lisa chapter 1 . 4/4/2015
Good beginning.
I don't know if you read people's comments by now. But, I'll try to write something after each chapter. The one thing I like about starting your story is that you've completed it. I can't read anymore stories that are half way done and no end visible in the future. The second is that I've truly enjoyed reading the 1st chapter.
| advalorem chapter 1 . 1/23/2015
I could not put this down, read it all in one breath, did not sleep last night...
This was such a great story! Please keep writing,
Wishing you all the best,
| Guest chapter 6 . 1/5/2015
Thanks for your version of N & S.
| LoveInTheBattleField chapter 62 . 10/26/2014
This story was good
| KylieKyotie chapter 62 . 8/2/2014
Total binge read on a Saturday! Thank you for writing such a comprehensive, engaging story - it was a real pleasure to meet these characters and see the relationships form. I really like the modern take on Margaret and John and the epilogue was sooo sweet!
| angelica8051 chapter 62 . 7/16/2014
I would just like you to know that his fanfiction is one of the most beautiful things I have ever read and that the relationship between John and Margaret is so real and beautiful and loving. Thank you.
| drovingallday96 chapter 62 . 6/14/2014
I have several story ideas for other fandoms lined up, but I am willing to take up your challenge of writing a Pre-WWI adaptation of North and South. It may take a long time to write, but I never back down from a challenge. To give you a heads up, I will probably use some plot twists from another excellent book series and BBC-miniseries called Parade's End, starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rebecca Hall, I believe.
| christine.golden.716 chapter 19 . 3/18/2014
I do. I'm disabled due to a disintegrating spine and take several meds for it. Vicodin blocks pain and enhances the effects of other drugs such as muscle relaxers; however, after taking it regularly for a few months, it loses its "high." Then, you just don't hurt anymore - which works for me.
| LadyForrest chapter 61 . 3/17/2014
It was nice to re-read your story and it is nicely improved. I look forward to your stories and they are never boring. Thanks a bunch!
| AnneDance1711 chapter 62 . 2/12/2014
Aww I just found this and I couldn't stop readinf! That was soooo beautiful! Thank you for sharing this with us
| CoffeeBiscotti chapter 34 . 10/26/2013
Your note is spot on. While reading this chapter, I was contemplating to myself about how annoyed I can get with fictional characters because they DON'T TALK TO EACH OTHER. But I know that then, there would be no story to tell! It does make me wonder how they'd cope in the real world though! That said, I am enjoying your story and look forward to what is to come!

I have 2 gaming computers, one is a laptop and one is a desktop, and both have wireless internet.
My desktop has little to zero signal when my gaming laptop is even in the house, not running. Everything was working fine, then:
- Someone stayed for 2 weeks with their own gaming laptop, and my desktop's signal strength decreased significantly.
- Then the guest and his gaming laptop left.
- Meanwhile, my gaming laptop developed other issues and was sent in for repairs. My desktop's internet signal strength boosted to full strength.
- My gaming laptop came home all repaired, desktop signal strength is nonexistent again.
I have tried:
- Plugging in a network signal box that would normally be used for Xbox, but still nothing.
- I upgraded my wireless speed to the highest available in my area with the service I have (4MB) but I see no change in strength.
How can I fix this?

Jeansonne has been a reporter in Newsday's sports department since 1970 and has covered 11 Olympic Games and
Never has so much been made by so many for so long over so little. The LeBron James free-agent guessing game - "LeBronaggeddon," "The King and His Courtship," "LeBronathon" - has been spewing even longer than the Gulf oil spill, with just as unknowable a conclusion, yet roughly as much public attention.
It is harmless enough, in the parallel universe of fun and games, that bloggers, commentators and politicians would weigh in on the future of a 25-year-old multimillionaire who earns his living performing publicly in his underwear. And big money is at stake well beyond James and his NBA suitors.
But the real indication of sports' increasingly overblown importance in modern society is the hemorrhaging passion that goes along with the wall-to-wall coverage of James' potential decision. When Pulitzer Prize-winning Cleveland columnist Connie Schultz wrote, "I'd hate for Cleveland to lose [James], but we can't hinge our happiness on the career of a man who's entitled to his youthful ambitions," Ohio lawyer Peter Pattakos became absolutely apoplectic on his "Cleveland Frowns" website.
"LeBron's decision isn't just about LeBron," Pattakos wrote. "It's about all of us." Pattakos professed his love for the area's towns and teams, declaring he "is tired of them being crapped on."
Such an outsized flap, featuring pleas by pols and celebrities for James' services, including a cheesy "C'mon LeBron" video featuring Big Town's Michael Bloomberg, strikes former sports journalist Robert Lipsyte as "unsettling."
Lipsyte, now an author and jock culture correspondent for the site Tomdispatch.com, e-mailed: "We always seem to be hungry for heroes when things are turning sour; the wars, the economy, the assaults on the environment are all bringing out this need to be inspired by people who don't really challenge us in any way to be heroes ourselves, to make sacrifices, demand justice, call for reform."
Elite athletes are "almost cartoons," Lipsyte said. "LeBron is one of those star-from-another- planet talents who have no relation to our skills. And we don't know anything bad about him yet (at least I don't) . . . Jock culture has always supplied these kinds of heroes who give us a quick jolt of ennoblement."
In strict NBA terms, and probably pro sports in general, the James saga is unprecedented, veteran NBA journalist Dave D'Alessandro said, because James, at the peak of his skills at 25, is "the most perfect specimen available to the highest bidder"; because "teams are gutting their rosters at an absurd, frenzied pace" to afford the likes of James and possibly a second top free agent, and because the confluence of those factors has created "the opportunity to rebuild your franchise in one easy move, which beats the hell out of doing it the honest, old-fashioned way - bottoming out and rebuilding through the draft."
The problem, D'Allesandro recently detailed in a piece for Slam magazine, is that free agency "is almost always the greatest anticlimax on the NBA calendar" and has produced "only two signifcant, franchise-making, league-altering free-agent signings . . . in the last decade: Chauncey Billups in 2002 and Steve Nash in 2004."
That hasn't curtailed the excessive attempts, from so many corners, to nourish James' ego, causing Cleveland columnist Schultz to declare, "All this hand-wringing in Cleveland and gleeful fist-pumping everywhere else because our star basketball player may dump us after he becomes a free agent makes my head hurt."
The whole affair feels like the Hot Stove League on steroids - a breathy anticipation of acquired talent applied to some far-off competition - that seems to characterize the soul of the 21st-century fan.
"I've been thinking about it," Lipsyte said, "and wonder if it's really 'anticipation' anymore, which would suppose waiting periods between seasons.
"That's gone. It's one continuous season now, the postseason flowing seamlessly into the next preseason because we want - need - this sports soap opera to go on every day, to fill out those empty black holes caused by all the unpleasant, enervating news. Keep me excited, in suspense, something to think and talk about that's not covered in oil or blood."

Voilà une personne qui est très proche et très disponible, de surcroit il a fait un excellent geste commercial, dont nous seuls savons pourquoi.
Je recommande vivement.
Perfect for small studio in Nice stay 4 to 5 days for one or two people.
Parfait petit studio pour séjourner à Nice 4 à 5 jours pour une ou deux personnes.

Salvatore est très agréable et particulièrement disponible.
Salvatore was very helpful and friendly. The place was very clean and well located. I would highly recommend it!
the studio is located in the center of Nice, clean and very well organized, the owner is a very polite young funny and serious, I recommend it to all those who decide to visit nice. Thanks, I felt at home.
lo studio è posizionato al centro di nizza, pulito ed organizzato molto bene, il proprietario è un giovane molto educato simpatico e serio, lo consiglio a tutti coloro che decidessero di visitare nizza.
Grazie mi sono sentito a casa mia.
Blev väldigt nöjd med boendet i Nice. Bodde med wimdu i Paris och Toulouse före detta och Salvatore hamnar högst upp. Vi blev välkomnade av hans kusin Fred och han hämtade även upp oss och körde oss till flygplatsen för 30€, otroligt trevligt kille!
Lägenheten ligger bra till och det är lätt att ta sig dit man vill. Vi bodde tre stycken där och hade väl inte valt att bo en till i lägenheten, men då hade vi väldigt mycket packning som tog plats och bott med varandra i 10 dagar.
Bra betyg får Fred och lägenheten!
Al llegar a la puerta parece que te vas a encontrar otra cosa, pero cuando abres, ves un piso luminoso, muy bien decorado, limpísimo, en general, mejor de lo esperado, a unos 20 minutos del aeropuerto en bus, a unos 15 min del centro andando y cerca de los autobuses, el paseo marítimo está a 2 o 3 minutos andando.
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone

Dakota Fanning wants to grow up.
The 16-year-old actress, who plays rocker Cherie Currie from the in new biopic 'The Runaways', admits she wants to do more hard-hitting roles because it is difficult shaking off her child star image.
She said: "I can be sweet little Dakota Fanning, and then I can be totally different in the movies.
"A big reason I wanted to do 'The Runaways' was to do something unlike anything that I've done before.
"I'm ready to have people see me in a different way than like the kid in 'I Am Sam' or 'War of the Worlds'. You have to kind of grow up. Everyone has to do it. I am doing it through films, which may be more difficult but it's what I love to do."
Dakota - who shot to fame aged just seven in 'I Am Sam' - also insists she isn't worried about media attention as she gets older and has vowed to live her life normally.
She added to Parade.com: "I will always live my life and always just do what I want to do and what I need to do. I don't think you can really let fame effect you. It hasn't been a problem for me yet, with people following me or anything. If it ever does, I don't know what I'll do. But as of now, I think I just have to live my life."

Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: All-Sex
The softer side of lesbian sex looks great here. These girls, be they gonzo pros or unknown newcomers, take their time, exploring each other from head to toe with genuine passion ? or at least convincing interest.
The most noteworthy scene is the opener between Max and Bobbi Starr. With her head shaved, Max takes on the role of the boy and both girls lick box like they mean it. Even when Holly Wellin, Poppy Morgan and Liv Wylder group up, the girls slow it down and get sensual. Elsewhere, Katja Kassin and Sandra Romain turn up the heat during a passionate two-way.
Pre-nom Best All-Girl Feature, Best All-Girl Series.
Retailing: Recommend this series to lesbians and fans of lesbians.

Released: Dec 01st, 1995
Running Time: 85
Director: Damion Roberts
Company: Las Vegas Video
Cast: Frankie Layne, Gerry Pike, Briannon, J.R. Carrington, Damion Roberts, Rachel Love
Critical Rating: AA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Porn strictly by the numbers with some hot moments, such as millionaire Shawn Ricks' staircase-banging of J.R. Carrington. Ricks slides a string of pearls over J.R.'s pussy before sliding his rod up her ravenous asshole. Rachel Love then drools on Jake Steed's stick before squeezing it inside her. All-buxom and all-blonde (well, mostly), stock for those who cherish these qualities in a female.
