A Creative Nashville Wedding Vendor Showcase!
Over the winter months a group of Nashville Wedding Vendors got together to showcase their talents and ideas with the main idea to create a fun and different themed wedding. We all realized that the current trend of country & vintage themed weddings, although fun, are starting to become the go to theme for a lot of couples. We wanted to do something different and show potential couples that there are other fun ideas that don't fit the standard mold. Everyone involved had a great time flexing their creative ideas to come up with something different than what they've been doing. Thanks to everyone who was involved in this idea andI hope this brings everyone involved couples who want fun fresh ideas for their wedding!

Diff between two dates (sat/sun = 1 day)
Form to select week and display weekday totals
I would like to create a form that allows a user to select a week of the year (Sun-Sat) by date and return the number trips by day (How many on Monday, Tuesday), separated by Trip Type (Long Haul, Short Haul, Repo) and also a day total and week total.
how to create a week planning?
09/01/2012 meeting
09/01/2012 dinner with Kate
11/01/2012 gym
25/01/2012 meeting
I want to see in a form something like this:
mon tue wed thu fri sat sun
meeting gym
dinner wi.
can I do this using a crossed field query?
some day have no event, other have more than one.
I have to filter by week (e.g. "this week, this week
IIf Date Query
Sun, Mon, Tue, Wed needs to calculate or add 9 days to Date
Thu, Fri need to calculate or add 11 days to Date
Sat need to calculate or add 10 days to date
This is a database to calculate the expiration day after 7 working days from a specific date.
Date to day of week
ex. I input 01/14/2012 in the ldate field I want it to return Sat in the ldow field.
I did search but couldn't / didn't find anything specific to converting this way
Day of Week Totals
Sample Data in table:
Event/Start Day/End Day
I would like the query to produce the following:
Day/No. Events
Calculate calendar days but count Saturday and Sunday as 1 day.
Example: My start date is Wed, 1 Jun and my end date is Tue, 7 Jun. Wed counts as day 0, Thu counts as day 1, Fri day 2, Sat & Sun as day 3, Mon as day 4, Tue as day 5.
I thought about using the WEEKDAY function to determine the day of the week the start and end dates occur and calculating the workdays and adding 1 if a weekend fell between the dates, but it is possible that some of my date ranges could cover multiple weeks.
How would I calculate this with a formula/VBA
Filling in data in query
The table with data is called VFF and has columns Date, SeriesName, Value. This is updated every Thursday.
I want to create a new table with all calendar dates where I populate the dates using the latest available data in that week.
Thu Nov 10 data from Nov 10
Fri Nov 11 data from Nov 10
Sat Nov 12 data from Nov 10
Sun Nov 13 data from Nov 10
Mon Nov 14 data from Nov 10
Tue Nov 15 data from Nov 10
Wed Nov 16 data from Nov 10
Thu Nov 17 data from Nov 17
Fri Nov 18 data from Nov 17
I have tried to think of a few different solutions but I find they are not elegant nor very efficient.
If anyone has a good idea of how I should go about this I would be most grateful
Survey design
Question 1:
Which two TV channels do you watch the most during the day? At what times do you watch these channels?
a) First Channel (can only pick one)
b) Day (can enter multiple combinations, e.g. [Mon-Wed], [Mon, Wed, Sat], [Thurs, Sun], etc.)
c) Time (can enter multiple combinations, e.g. 8-9am, 8-11am, 10-4pm, etc.) d) Second Channel (can only pick one)
e) Day (can enter multiple combinations, e.g. [Mon-Wed], [Mon, Wed, Sat], [Thurs, Sun], etc.)
f) Time (can enter multiple combinations, e.g. 8-9am, 8-11am, 10-4pm, etc.)
The survey has 24 questions in total, I know I need to use the "memo" datatype but have no idea where to store it so it's clean and neat.
They can combine "Mon", "Tues"."Sun" in any possible combination. But I do not know how to create a field in a table that can accept multiple choices. Any articles or demo videos on how to do this?
3) Same goes for "Time". I thought to break it up to 6-7am, 7-8am, etc. in discrete 1 hour increments, but I don't know how to allow the user to select multiple timeframes. For e.g. he can just select 7-8pm, or 7-10pm by selecting 7-8pm, 8-9pm and 9-10pm.
Do not append if date is weekend?
I would like to put in the daily calculated target field in the query if the date fall into weekend (Sat & Sun), return all value to 0 (zero).

Mr Kay, that's his name
People whisper, as in shame
Of his wrongs, though he is right
To burn with anger, with all his might
People shiver, people stare
Not daring to look upon his evil glare,

Hoping 'that will never be me!'

Gaze around the plush dining room at this exquisite, family-owned hotel as bow-tied waiters glide serenely by, and only the branch-like Swarovski chandeliers remind you we left the Edwardian era a long time ago. Carpets and drapes are thick, colours muted, mobile phones most unwelcome. A recent refurbishment by Viscount Linley's design company gently updated the decor while preserving the refinement and understated luxury of the 103-year-old restaurant.
Food is anything but stuffy, with sophisticated interpretations of British classics to the fore. Much is made of the only-the-best ingredient sourcing policy, and the quality is clear. A light hand in the kitchen is evident in the likes of a flavour-packed ham knuckle terrine with a zingy cider apple foam, or a generous slice of poached Wester Ross salmon surrounded by painstakingly sliced slivers of crunchy spring vegetables.
Those were both from the pre-theatre menu, which though not exactly cheap at £33 for two courses, is more affordable than the £49.50 for three on the à la carte. Puddings and cheeses are served from a trolley, as is beef wellington, in a wonderfully traditional manner. An indulgent experience: old-world English glamour with a modern touch.
Bathed in natural light by day and sumptuously aglow with custom Swarovski chandeliers at night, The Dining Room has a special ambience to accompany the fine cuisine. Alongside an extensive wine and Champagne menu - carefully selected by the head sommelier, Olivier Clausse - the Bar & Lounge offers an irresistible cocktail list for those looking to start or end their evening in style.
Holder of three AA Rosettes, with a menu that boasts Romney Marsh lamb, Cornish cod, beef Wellington and eggs Drumkilbo (the Queen Mother's favourite), The Dining Room's menus celebrate British cuisine using the finest ingredients sourced from across the UK. Be sure to leave room for an indulgent pudding - the perfect end to a delectable lunch or dinner.
The Goring is nestled in Belgravia, just a stone's throw from Mayfair, Knightsbridge, Buckingham Palace and the West End - perfectly placed for shopping and theatre, work or play.

The Goring Dining Room within the Goring Hotel was a great 'discovery'. It has been there for ever but I just did not know about it. It is a gem of a place close to Victoria, but also to Buckingham Palace. Perhaps not an obvious location but you forget it all once your are inside. The garden, by the way, is beyond cool.
We had a great dinner experience savoring brill (attached photo), cod, crab salad and the famous eggs Drumkilbo as an appetizer. The presentation was superb and the food quality really special. Service was great as well.
The actual decor is by David Linley, and although I can see the classical elegance and good proportions, I am not sure about the Swarovski chandeliers. We all commented that they looked like "last year's Christmas lights". What what do we know? :)
All in al, I will go back and I recommend it.
Afternoon tea at The Goring is about as British as you can get! Beautiful service and lovely afternoon tea in the Terrace dining room.
It's no surprise that Kate Middleton picked this hotel to spend the night before her wedding!

Immaculate Conception Catholic Church of Hendersonville, the newest major partner in the Feed the Kids Coalition in Henderson County, has helped the charitable program grow by leaps and bounds during the past six months.
Immaculate Conception Catholic Church of Hendersonville, the newest major partner in the Feed the Kids Coalition in Henderson County, has helped the charitable program grow by leaps and bounds during the past six months.
With the help of 120 new volunteers that Immaculate Conception brought to Feed the Kids, the Coalition has served more than 3,500 hot, healthy meals to hungry children since June.
The Feed the Kids Coalition is an interfaith initiative that directly benefits hungry children in the Hendersonville area. It was developed specifically to feed kids in need who attend the local Boys & Girls Club at 1304 Ashe St.
"We are so grateful to all of our volunteers who dedicate their time and ideas to help make our participation in the program such a success," said Peg Costigan, Immaculate Conception's team leader for Feed the Kids. "More importantly, it's so very rewarding to see the smiling, appreciative children at every event."
Immaculate Conception's volunteers, who all received training to participate in Feed the Kids, love letting the children they help feed know that so many people in Hendersonville care about them, Costigan said.
Feed the Kids delivers simple, nutritious and delicious meals to the Boys & Girls Club every Friday night.
The average cost of the meal is $1.60 per child. The number of children attending the Friday night dinners ranges from 120 to 270.
Statistics show that 47 percent of Henderson County's children who attend public schools are enrolled in the free lunch program, noted Darlene Robinson, a member of Immaculate Conception Catholic Church who volunteers as public relations and marketing liaison for Feed the Kids.
"Therefore many children do not have a hot meal until Monday morning breakfast after Friday lunch" at school, Robinson said. "Any food left over from the Boys & Girls Club event is delivered hot to the local Hendersonville Mission, serving even more children and families and ensuring no food is wasted."
Feed the Kids cooks the food fresh that is purchased or donated, she said.
"We have been very fortunate that local produce providers have supplied fresh fruit and vegetables since it began," Robinson said. "It just makes their meals more totally nutritious."
So far, local produce providers who donate food have wished to remain anonymous.
Immaculate Conception was invited to join the Feed the Kids effort last summer.
When the Rev. Nick Mormando of Immaculate Conception pitched the idea to his church's parishioners, a flood of support poured in.
"Our congregation has always been inspired to address the needs of the local community," Mormando said.
Immaculate Conception member Lawrence Gentile stepped up to take a leadership role; he joined Feed the Kids Coalition's new steering committee.
"The dedication and support from our church members has been overwhelming for this worthwhile cause," Gentile said.
Teams from more than a dozen faith-based organizations and civic groups from Hendersonville and throughout the county comprise Feed the Kids. Its volunteers handle fundraising, obtain donations from local produce providers, purchase supplies and food, prepare the meals, help provide transportation and serve the dinners to hungry children on Friday evenings at the Boys & Girls Club.
Other partners in the Feed the Kids Coalition include St. James Episcopal Church, First United Methodist Church of Hendersonville, Trinity Presbyterian Church, the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship, Grace Lutheran Church, Agudas Israel Synagogue, New Creations International Christian Church, the Lions Club of Hendersonville, evening chapter, the Kiwanis Club of Hendersonville and Lake Point Landing.
Any faith-based organizations and civic group is invited to participate in this worthwhile program. The next meeting for Feed the Kids Coalition volunteers is at 4 p.m. Thursday at First United Methodist of Hendersonville, 204 Sixth Ave. W. The monthly meeting is open to all coalition volunteers.
The coalition is holding a spaghetti dinner benefit from 5 to 7 p.m. Jan. 22 at First United Methodist Church in the Barber Christian Life Center at Sixth Avenue W. and Buncombe Street.
Proceeds from the dinner will directly benefit Feed the Kids at the Boys & Girls Club. Expected donations for the dinner are $10 for adults, $5 for children age 2 to 12, and free for children younger than 2. Take-out dinners will also be available.
For donations or to learn about participating in the Feed the Kids effort, contact Shirley Walsh at email@example.com or call 828-696-2100 for more information.
Children from the Boys & Girls Club, left, will benefit from the spaghetti dinner on Jan. 22. The Feed the Children Coalition provides a hot meal for children at the Boys & Girls Club at 1304 Ashe St. every Friday night. Any food that is left over is donated to the Hendersonville Rescue Mission so nothing goes to waste.

Offshoot of bug 328258.
Debugging using the gif attached at bug 328258 (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=212852), I noticed that do_lzw() is accessing memory out of bounds of the array. Specifically, in this code:
while (code >= clear_code)
if (code == prefix[code])
return -1;
*stackp++ = suffix[code];
code = prefix[code];
if (stackp == stack + MAX_BITS)
return -1;
At one point, when count == 190, the line "code = prefix[code]" sets code to 43690. The next time through the loop, it tries to access prefix[43690], but prefix is of size 4097.
In GIFInit, I changed this line:
memset(gs, 0, offsetof(gif_struct, prefix));
memset(gs, 0, sizeof(gif_struct));
With this, I don't see it trying to access invalid memory. Seems the while loop tries to access an offset of 'prefix' that has never been set up.
Created attachment 213232 [details] [diff] [review]
One line patch to fix clearing of struct
The offsetof thing was to clear only part of the struct, but is clearly wrong.
It is saver anyway to clear the whole struct.
Comment on attachment 213232 [details] [diff] [review]
One line patch to fix clearing of struct
This is fine. However, as part of LZW, should the algorithm access an offset of prefix that hasn't previously been set? With this fix, the result will now be zero. Is that correct according to the LZW spec?
isn't this a duplicate of bug 243653?
Comment on attachment 213232 [details] [diff] [review]
One line patch to fix clearing of struct
Pavlov, can you take quickly a look at this. This is related to a 'Access Denied' bug...
Thanks, who can check this for me?
Previous comment should be:
Thanks, who can check this in the tree(s) for me?
Also requesting to check it into the 1.8 branch for FF 2.0, because this a crasher (and related to bug 328258).
The memset line was added as part of bug 274391, well after the 1.7/aviary101 branches.
I guess I'll take this to land it.
Fix landed on trunk, 1.8 branch, and 1.8.1 branch
What is the security impact here? Looks like it's only reading random memory, right?
Please provide testcase and guidance on how to verify this fix.
FWIW, this patch fixed the uninitialized memory reads and free memory reads reported by valgrind on the GIF in the testcase on bug 317536. That bug should be marked duplicate or depends+fixed when this bug is opened.
Crashes in do_lzw are a topcrash for Fx 184.108.40.206; I suspect this fix fixes them.
fixed per comment 10 on March 3
*** Bug 317536 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Approximately 10 years ago, someone started a similar thread here. But they were regarding the most outrageous realtor ads. One could do the same for car dealers.
Met Giangreco at a charity event years ago, saw his sports stuff on ABC 7 in Chicago, and heard him on the radio. But never heard anything political.
Do they really want the Feds-with-warrants to kick-down the doors? Because it'll happen. And a majority of Americans can't wait to see it happen.

DLL Bookkeeping Services, Bay Area
Bookkeeping Services mission is to provide business owners with accurate and detailed bookkeeping records and financial analysis expertise.
Even though I had an extensive accounting/marketing work background, I wasn't that familiar with the QuickBooks software. Nor did I know how to generate clients being new to this work arena. I was just coming back from being out of the work force after 15 years. I needed to know how to reinvent myself and skills and how to market myself in this tough economy.
Paula Mattisonsierra helped me develop my marketing and sourcing plan. We worked on my company logo, website, Craigslist ad, resume, networking ideas and helped in just setting up my business structure/groundwork (i.e. licensing, insurance DBA, etc.)
I also took all the bookkeeping and QuickBooks classes at the ACSBC.
Within 2 months of starting, I have 3 clients and also will be starting work at a company as a bookkeeper. Both avenues tie in with my goal of getting more experience and building my skills towards my long-term goals.
"The ACSBDC is a fantastic resource for those individuals wanting to start their own businesses. I am also very fortunate to have Paula as my mentor as she has been a wealth of information and truly believed in me when I had doubts/fears of forging ahead."

Dallas Could Be Next City to Get Google Fiber
The company has begun preliminary discussions with officials to check out the feasibility of Google Fiber high-speed Internet in Dallas.Dallas could become the third city in Texas to receive Google's Fiber high-speed Internet service. The company has begun preliminary talks with officials to scope out the work involved in bringing the gigabit service to the city. As part of the process, Google will work with officials to get details on the city's topography and existing municipal-owned utility poles and electricity, gas and water lines to figure how and where to place the fiber lines needed for the service. Google's formal 18-page checklist of items for Fiber includes getting details on state laws and city ordinances pertaining to the reuse of existing infrastructure where possible to build out the network. Google will also require city officials to provide details on the permits and the processes that it will require to go through to build out and deploy Fiber in Dallas.
"Building a fiber-optic network through a dense and complex urban environment like Dallas is challenging," Jill Szuchmacher, Google's director of expansion for Fiber, wrote in a blog post this week. "These discussions will help us deploy our network efficiently and responsibly."

It Takes Two to Tango -- Web site developers may be interested in Tango, a new product from EveryWare Development. Tango enables Mac-based Web servers like WebSTAR to communicate with Butler SQL, EveryWare's relational database. Although useful, the interesting part of Tango is that it combines a CGI for communicating with the Web server with a graphical editor that enables Web administrators to create Web pages quickly and without using SQL or HTML code. Tango 1.0 is bundled with Butler SQL and only works with it. The Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) version of Tango, due out in Jan-96, will support connections to databases including Oracle, Sybase, Informix, and FoxPro, running on Mac, Windows or Unix machines. The CGI is threaded and PowerPC-native for maximum performance. Butler SQL with Tango starts at $495 for a two-user license, although readers of DealBITS <email@example.com> pay only $247 through 30-Dec-95 (and multi-user licenses are also 50 percent off). EveryWare Development -- <email@example.com> [ACE]

Well worth doing - always the best way to start a visit to any city. Would have been helpful if we had been aware that the trip to Bondi only goes from Central Station - we did a complete loop of the city then had to do half of it again to get the Bondi bus. Best to do the Bondi trip once you get to Central Station then the rest of the city trip once you get back there.
Commentary really good, everyone very friendly.
Getbusytraveling United States of ...
My first Hop-on-Hop-Off bus experience. It was a great way to see the city
Great way of seeing Sydney sights and visiting Bondi beach.
Very convenient way to sightsee and get around. Loved it!
The way to see Sydney, it was a nice time and great experience. All fine for us, great experience.
Worked perfect for us. Changed at Central to accommodate both circles in our short day.
This is the best way to introduce a new visitor to Sydney. Very easy to learn where the sights and points of interest are and to get on and off at will. Viator booking rate saved us a few dollars off of the posted fare.
An excellent experience to find your way around the city. As the lady on the bus suggested we did the first half of the tour, changed at Central and did the Bondi and beaches section then back to Central and changed buses again, they run regularly so never long to wait. We then got at at the fish harbour and had lunch, a great find before catching the bus back to Circular Quay. Very good value for money and a very interesting commentary.
This excursion was everything we wanted it to be. Our wish was that the busses ran a bit later into the evening and perhaps started earlier in the morning !
Great value. It was a very good way to get an overview of Sydney. We were on a cruise and only stopped in Sydney for one day. It gave us a chance to see many interesting sites in a very short time.
Nice tour of the city and Bondi beach. Just not enough time to see all there was to see.
Great way to see the city and easy to follow. Was able to do both lines for city and beach in one day but we did not stop at many places. Recommend!
This was a great way to get around Sydney and see the sites. We stopped at the aquarium and the bus came quickly after we were done with our tour.

The hop on hop off bus always seems to work for my wife and I as we can see a lot and get a commentary which provides information. We hopped on and off on a number of occasions including Bondi beach. Good value especially as we had a reduction due to age!
Very good tour if you want to see Syndey in a short amount of time. One problem that we had noted was that the local tour was much cheaper than what we paid Viator because they offer a huge senior discount.
Each stop painstakingly long and buses overcrowded
Late start. Route terminated early so had to repeat again. Took time to find out how the commentary worked.

... 11th century but the current one was built in 1850s. Much of the castle is being renovated which we assume has something to do with Schwerin being in East Germany after the war and it may have been damaged or at least not maintained by the communist government. There were alot of rooms already renovated, particularly the ones looking out onto the lake so lovely views through every window. ...

Terrible game but they won and at least we got to see it. Our room nice and dark and quiet. A really good ...

After an excellent breakfast with a view over the village countryside we headed off towards Lubeck arriving after an easy motorway drive at 2pm.

Malchow, northern Germany.
On Tuesday, we left Hamburg and drove to Malchow, via a medieval town, Schwerin, which had a huge castle. It was the former residence of the dukes and grand dukes of Mecklenburg. It was built in the mid C19, incorporating existing structures from the C16 and C17. There were even foundation remnants going back to 1000AD. Since 1990, it has mainly been used by the Regional Parliament of Mecklenburg-Pomerania. The castle is also a museum, and had been ...

Nate Silver, elections and SPORTS
Cam Charron
November 07 2012 02:55AM
Math kicked ass.
Not to say that Nate Silver's models are completely infallible, of course, the guy got lucky. Every single state of the union voted as Silver forecasted it to vote, within a slim margin of error he gave simply by aggregating polls over the last year or so.
I don't want to write an election-themed post, but I do think it's worth it for me to note Silver in writing somewhere. Silver, once fed up with mainstream electoral coverage during the 2008 election and began writing a blog. He correctly forecasted the winners of 49 of 50 states. That's not a huge achievement on its own, but Silver had gained notoriety in the political world for the statistical approach on his blog fivethirtyeight and his work with Baseball Prospectus in developing PECOTA, a system used to find historical matches of baseball players, and use those matches to forecast a range of outcomes for a player later in his career.
The NHL Could Learn Something From The U.S. Elections

Today marks the end of the gruelling campaign for the presidency of the United States. However, unlike an NHL season (remember those?), the winner of this campaign will actually have a very good chance of seeing the Stanley Cup. Multiple times, even.
If only it was that easy for the Presidents' Trophy winner. Sigh.
But I guess winning the Presidents' Trophy is very prestigious just in and of itself. I mean, you not only get the Trophy and a guarantee of two, maybe three home games in the playoffs, but the NHL even has a separate web page to recognize the winners...oh for God's sake.
Anyway, sharing a name for the ultimate prize (oh shut up and just go with it) is not the only thing in common between the NHL and the U.S. political system...

Russian Daniil Zharkov made an impression on Oiler fans shortly after Stu MacGregor's scouting staff gave him the seal of approval. "It's my goal to be better than Yak" he said on draft day. Zharkov was taken 90 spots behind Yakupov and started this season slowly; howver things are looking up.

Theo Peckham needs to play, and yesterday he made the decision to suit up for the San Francisco Bulls of the ECHL. With the NHL and NHLPA finally meeting again there is a glimmer of hope that the NHL might be playing by December 1st, and if that's the case, Peckham needed to play some games.
With Andy Sutton out another two months with an injury, Peckham will battle Corey Potter for the #6 spot on the Oilers blueline, when/if the season resumes. Potter has been playing in Vienna for over a month already and I think Peckham realized he needs to get playing so when camp starts he's in game shape.

November 06 2012 05:50AM
In yesterday's AHL grades piece, I wasn't overly enthusiastic about Teemu Hartikainen. That doesn't mean I wasn't optimistic about his NHL future – far from it. In fact, he's done as much to cement a shot at an NHL job when this lockout ends as anyone on the team not named Justin Schultz.

One of my favorite expressions was written on a sign in my colleague's office when I first started teaching at SUNY, Cortland in the late 1960's: "The flogging will stop when morale improves." President Obama's new proposals for improving graduation rates in "failing" schools by firing "half the staff" (which half?) as a way of giving incentives to other teachers to "do better or else" reminds me of that witty saying. Only the results aren't going to be very funny.
Faced with losing their jobs, as has been happening in New York City under similar circumstances, teachers in threatened schools will not only "teach to the test" until all semblance of learning is driven out of the classroom: their supervisors will do the kind of "creative accounting" that will miraculously increase graduation rates, including the use of "credit recovery," a way of granting failing students high school diplomas without their passing the required exams.
In fact, in one of the southern states, in order to increase graduation rates, the single math course required for a high school diploma--an elementary algebra course--accepted a 24% grade as "passing." This was often only accomplished when the student had had a number of opportunities to retake the test after being coached.
My major problem with the criteria being used to determine if a school is "passing" or "failing" is that I'm unconvinced that standardized tests are an accurate way to measure student learning. In the relatively short time that I have been writing blogs on education, I've seen increasing evidence of these tests' unreliability. The vast discrepancy between the 97% A's and B's given to New York City schools last Spring in the State tests and the miserable results on the more demanding NAEP (National Assessment of Educational Progress) tests are such examples. The one argument that standardized tests and graduation rates seem to have in their favor is that they provide "data" and that data can be used for all sorts of political purposes.
I've cited in past columns how "intelligence tests" given to World War l soldiers "proved" that Eastern European Jews were less worthy of being accepted for immigration to the United States than Northern Europeans because it was shown that the Jews were "intellectually inferior." It is this kind of "data" that can be used to justify the serious mistakes in educational policy that are being made in our schools today.
I went to a New York City high school in the late 1950's that you would assume had a lot of "great" teachers. Drop outs were almost unheard of, and 98% of those who graduated went on to college. I can't remember a single "prep test" although our teachers advised us--on our own--to look over the old Regents exams in a review book.
The fact was that not only were our teachers, for the most part, "average," although several of them were inspiring; a number of them, particularly the ones I remembered who taught math, were by anyone's standard "failing teachers": disorganized, unclear, impatient: bad. That, of course, didn't prevent most all of the students from passing their Regents exams in math. And by any standard of measurement, my high school, Music and Art--now LaGuardia--was extraordinarily successful. What was the secret of our success?
All--or almost all--of us came from middle-class, well-educated families who had a high regard for the arts, learning for its own sake, and an open-mindedness about what their children should read. Most of us, the sons and daughters of second-generation Americans, were also Jewish or of other newly immigrated backgrounds whose families regarded taking the time and expense to allow their children to excel in the arts as an obligation and a privilege.
It's unfortunate that the public assumes that the best students have the best teachers, and the worst students the worst teachers, because that simply isn't true. There are many "good teachers" in low-performing schools and more than a share of bad ones in outstanding schools. But to increase the number of good teachers in all schools, they have to be given conditions in which they can teach their best and that means when students can be raised in the best learning environment, an environment free of poverty. In the following analysis of Obama's program for improving the schools, I wish first to point out that the President does not mention any of the environmental factors that have a significant impact on whether or not the schools he considers "failures" would have a good chance of success in a "learning friendly" environment.
Of the four solutions he offers to what he sees as "failing schools," the "Turnaround Model" is, to me, the most thoughtless. The dictate is to "fire at least half the teachers and principal" and "implement a new or revised instructional program." If the objective in this exercise in the numbers game is merely to raise standardized test scores, the "instructional program" will be pretty much the same as its failed predecessor.
In the "Restart Model" a charter school or "management organization" will replace the regular public school (read: privatization of public schools). Not all charter schools are bad, certainly. However, one must consider the negative impact they have had on New York City as reported in this and many other similar blogs in setting parents of minority communities against each other and stigmatizing the students and former graduates of "failed schools" that are replaced by charters. Moreover, there is little evidence that charters are performing any better than regular public schools given their "ability" to cherry pick the most ready learners and reduce the number of students with learning disabilities and language limitations from being counted in their "test scores." It is hard not to conclude that charters are not the solution to the problems of public education: in fact, they add to these problems.
"School Closings" as a solution by enrolling "students in higher achieving schools in the district" presupposes that there are other schools in the district within easy access to the students who have just lost their neighborhood school. It also does not recognize that the schools to which these students transfer become overburdened and will themselves become low-achieving. A recent example of this educational catastrophe occurred when after the closing of Far Rockaway High School, the flood of students that overcrowded and overwhelmed the resources of Beach Channel High School has brought it down as well, at least according to Chancellor Klein's bizarre notion of "failure."
Finally, Obama's "Transformational Model" leaves the school intact but requires it to address "teacher effectiveness, instruction, learning and planning and operational flexibility." To what end: so it can get higher numbers on standardized tests?
If President Obama believes that some teachers should be fired, I agree with him: for molesting a student; for not showing up for class; for failing to make an effort to provide a positive environment in the classroom within the limitations imposed by social and economic conditions. But a teacher should not be fired for being unable to raise standardized test scores. Using test scores, especially when they are so arbitrary in what they prove, as a way of measuring a teacher's fitness to continue to teach is, as politely as I can put it: non-productive.
Most, although not by any means all, of our educational issues can be ameliorated by addressing the underlying problems which contribute to the likelihood of a poor education: poverty. With no mention of the many factors caused by poverty that lead to poor learning conditions, Obama's program for improving education in the United States is as likely to succeed as getting better weather by firing the local meteorologist

Ratings for Dr. Michael Fishell
Very bad experience in scheduling, stay away from this guy.
Everything Fishell did to me and for me was wrong I was in horrible pain for 5 (five whole weeks) & he even sent me to the wrong surgeon. Did not return calls. Wouldn't fill out my paperwork correctly & still charged me for doing it. Should be tar & feathered and run out of town. I was a long time patient.
Not sure about Dr Fishell. Met with only a couple times. However, his people and the system and the follow up for appointments and prescriptions and general customer service is horrible. The system and the people project an attitude as if they are going out of their way to do you a favor. And begrudgingly so. An attitude that represents all that is wrong with the health care system. And Dr Fishells name is on the business. Whether your dime or insurance. Expect a little more.
Dr. Fishell at Advanced Pain care is an insult to what being a medical provider means. The business itself states "ADVANCED PAINCARE" A spine specialist sent him a referral so as to control my pain. I never heard back, I followed up with leaving one message after another and finally I was told to go see another doctor. Two weeks of waiting in pain to be told that is beyond unprofessional. AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID AVOID if you care about yourself AVOID. After reading other reviews about Dr. Michael Fishell I am glad I never got in.I love living in Nevada but horrendous medical practices I have observed or been a victim of in 3 years I have lived here. A pain specialist should address any patient in pain, it is part of the Hippocratic Oath. Shame on you Dr. Michael Fishell you violate your Hippocratic oath and lack ethics and morality. If you are in real pain find someone else who will address your pain and treat you as a person not another patient. No human element here is applied.
I saw Dr Fishell for the first time.I found him to be a Great Doctor.I felt very comfortable, he's extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He took his time with me and answered all of mine and my husbands questions.It nice to see that there are still doctors left with those old fashioned values and that we are not just a name and a number with a dollar sign attatched.I would recommend him to anyone who wants to feel like they actually matter.This is coming from someone who is tired of being hearded in and out of other doctor s offices.Keep up the great care Dr.Fishell! You are rare but valued doctor.Thsnk you for that experience.
April 3rd, 2014 Met Dr. Fishell, discussed very little about me, he talked more about Obama care and government. I gave him a MRI & referring Doctor Report, MRI was done Feb 2014, Doctor Duke report dated March 31, 2014. The referring Doctor want me to have injection in my neck as x-rays indicated so did the report. Went in for injection on April 8, 2014, No one at anytime asked me where the injection was suppose to be. Doctor Fishell gave me the injection in my lower back (the wrong place) it was suppose to be in my neck, got very sick from the anesthetic. My husband called office several times that day, no One would answer the phone or called him back. Met with Doctor Fishell a week later, and he blamed me for all of his mistakes. All I can say is Beware of this Doctor. PS Some how he got a MRI I had on my back 5 years earlier. Said this was the only report he had. Why would a Doctor use an MRI dated 5 years ago, when I had just given him a recent one on my neck?
This doctor has, in my opinion, become unfeeling and cruel. I am in pain and he refused to see me. His staff offered no reason why, just said no. This is not the kind of doctor anyone should see.
This MD should be run out of the medical field. He was only interested in me as a patient if I had surgical procedures or injections. He put me on oxycontin and vicodin just to get rid of me. He set a follow up appointment and then rudely dismissed me saying there was nothing more he could do for me and that he could not spend anymore time with me. I would not recommend this doctor to treat my dog. I went to Dr. Joseph Imus who was horrified that I was taking the two most addictive drugs that would kill me if I kept taking them. He got me off of these highly addictive drugs and got me on celebrex and tramadol. I started feeling pain relief instantly. I can not say enough harsh comments about Dr. Fischell. He was awful.
Dr. Fishell is the best! I had a neurostimulator implanted by another physician that was a botched job. Dr. Fishell located the lost leads and sent me to Dr. Rimoldi who performed extensive surgery. Dr. Fishell then did a St. Jude trial which worked great. Dr. Rimoldi has implanted a permanent one and I am so much better. I am so grateful to Dr. Fishell!
saw dr fishell once and thought he was good initially.when he relocated his office from lake meade down into henderson he added staff and two P.A's. Was a patient there for nine years and only saw dr. for injections. was suddenly dropped from their medication mgmt program despite paying bills on time all the time. never heard from dr. either verbally or in a written letter as to why I was being dropped. very unprofessional.Staff behind front desk does not answer telephones. Have to leave msg and hope they call back. They spend more time chewing gum and curling their hair and talking amongst themselves. Epidurals given by dr seldom worked very long if at all. Had to ask P.A several times over several visits to get dr to ok injections.After being thrown to the wind by Fishell found Dr Fabito,an excellent and caring Dr. and I would highly recommend him!!! Fishell and his staff are second class!

Washington, D.C., circa 1920. "Wamsley billboard." While pondering the postworthiness of this moldy old glass negative, I noticed the small sign appended to the big one: "On this site will be the new home of the Methodist Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals." And therein lies a tale, having to do with the Chesterfield ad at the far end of the billboard. Which seems to have caused some embarrassment for the temperance board, who owned this property and was profiting from the advertisement for the "weed," despite tobacco being one of the vices it aimed to stamp out. After all that research I still don't know who Wamsley was. National Photo Company glass negative. View full size.

The quick series of events that led linebacker Desmond Bishop to schedule a Tuesday visit with the Minnesota Vikings suggests significant interest from both sides. The Vikings would get an experienced hand at a position of uncertainty, while Bishop would have a clear path to a starting job after missing an entire year because of injury -- not always a sure thing in the Not For Long league.
The real question is Bishop's long-term health prognosis. He has been telling reporters that the torn hamstring that cost him the 2012 season is fully healed, and that his absence from organized team activities (OTAs) and minicamp was the result of a strained hamstring. It's pretty clear that the Packers have had reservations about his health for a while, prompting them to re-sign veteran Brad Jones and also keep A.J. Hawk's salary in line with established starters.
It's worth noting that coach Leslie Frazier has been careful not to commit publicly to Erin Henderson as his middle linebacker, even though Henderson's internal competition is nominal at best. Signing Bishop to play middle linebacker would allow Henderson to return to the outside along with veteran Chad Greenway. First, however, the Vikings need to make a more educated projection of Bishop's health. That starts Tuesday.

Platelets play a central role in both hemostasis and thrombosis, and contribute to a wide range of related phenomena, including inflammation and metastasis formation. The ultimate goal of this grant proposal is to understanding the way in which platelets interact with the blood vessel wall and with other platelets via the glycoprotein receptors on their surface, and to use that knowledge to improve human health. Despite advances in analyzing the structure and function of the ?IIb?3 receptor, which is crucial for normal hemostasis and a validated target of antithrombotic therapy, major gaps remain in understanding ligand binding and its impact on platelet physiology. Moreover, there is a need for improved potent antiplatelet therapies that cn be administered in the pre-hospital phase of myocardial infarction. The data obtained from these studies will inform attempts to develop novel inhibitors of ?IIb?3 that have therapeutic advantages over existing agents.
In Specific Aim 1 we propose to improve our understanding of ligand binding by: a) Using functional ligand binding data and new crystal structures of ?IIb?3 as inputs to state-of-the art computational methods to identify interactions between the fibrinogen ?-module and ?IIb?3 in addition to those made by the fibrinogen ?- chain C-terminal dodecapeptide (?C-12), b) Using electron cryomicroscopy (cryo-EM) and negative stain EM in conjunction with random conical tilt reconstructions, molecular dynamics (MD)-based flexible fitting and steered MD to obtain atomic resolution 3-dimensional (3D) representations of intact ?IIb?3 in a nanodisc lipid bilayer in the absence of detergent. The inactive receptor, the receptor activated by talin head-domain (THD) in the absence of ligand, and THD-activated receptor in the presence of fibrinogen will each be studied. c) Using zinc finger nuclease-mediated gene editing to evaluate mutations of ?3 in murine platelets rather than in cell lines that lack the platelet's signaling machinery, focusing initially on a mutation we hypothesize will enhance the binding of filamin to the ?3 cytoplasmic tail and thus diminish platelet sensitivity to activation. d) Using enhanced MD techniques to characterize ?IIb?3 activation pathways and testing the hypothesis that the new ?IIb?3 antagonists identified in the past grant period (RUC-1, RUC-2, MSSM-1, MSSM-2) stabilize a closed, inactive conformation, thus accounting for their reduced ability to activate ?IIb?3 compared to ?IIb?3 antagonists patterned on the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) cell recognition sequence.
In Specific Aim 2 we propose to identify new compounds that will provide insights into ?IIb?3 structure-function and may have therapeutic potential by characterizing the 57 compounds (out of 126,000 tested) that most potently inhibit ?IIb?3-mediated platelet adhesion and aggregation. We will also perform a new screen to selectively identify compounds that target ancillary fibrinogen binding sites since these may lead to new therapeutics that are safer and more efficacious.
