This review is from: KRK RP5G3-NA Rokit 5 Generation 3 Powered Studio Monitor - Pair
Pros: They sound great.
I'm using them as computer speakers. My games sound great and I'm falling in love with my music all over again.
Cons: They didn't come with XLR cables. Maybe I missed that deal?
Other Thoughts: Paired this with an Asus Xonar STU dac/amp. The speakers were buzzing due to grounding issues with my loop. Ground lifters solved the problem.
I'm gonna need a subwoofer to feel 100% which was expected with 5" speakers.
This review is from: KRK RP6G3-NA Rokit 6 Generation 3 Powered Studio Monitor - Pair
Pros: They sound great. Using them as computer speakers with an Asus Xonar STU dac/amp. Great for gaming and I'm falling in love with my music all over again.
Cons: No included cables. Its not worth docking an egg over, as most enthusiasts prefer to choose their own cables.
Other Thoughts: I'm very happy however I'm going to need a subwoofer to feel 100%.
I had grounding issues with my setup and needed a "ground lifter" to eliminate buzz.
This review is from: ASUS Xonar Essence STU 24-bit 192KHz USB Interface Sound Card
Pros: Does it's job well.
Looks good on my desk.
Cons: No balanced outputs.
Other Thoughts: Bough this to complement my Sennheiser 650's. So far it's performed flawlessly in Windows 8.1. No sound anomalies or jitter detected.READ FULL REVIEW

Created attachment 538812 [details] [diff] [review]
Patch to fix
Our nsXMLHttpRequest implementation currently in some cases listens for the load event of the document being parsed. However it's unclear if this code is ever used. The comments making us wait mention that the parser could have been blocked by for example the XSLT processing code, however that code is disabled for XHR loads.
I ran this patch through try and all tests passed and the assertion didn't fire, so it seems like this patch does not affect behavior.
Oh, and this also removes the code that listens for error events fired on the parsed document which currently tries to make the XHR abort its load and fire an error event.
However this doesn't currently happen even if the document being loaded isn't well-formed XML. And it's also not the behavior that the XHR spec calls for.
Comment on attachment 538812 [details] [diff] [review]
Patch to fix
This is failing xpcshell tests. Something appears to be wrong in the error handling code.
Created attachment 538847 [details] [diff] [review]
Patch to fix v2
The problem is that we have xpcshell tests (and possibly internal code), which depends on the channel still being available when onerror fires. I.e. xhr.channel must not return null.
Checked in
There's some redness, but it's looking infrastructure related, so marking FIXED for now.

Long layoff hasn't hurt Nathan Horton
Credit: Associated Press
NEW YORK — For Bruins right winger Nathan Horton, the best sign early in the season is that he hasn't thought twice about giving or taking a hit.
It would be understandable for Horton to be hesitant to undertake physical play. When he stepped on the Garden ice for the season opener last Saturday against the New York Rangers, it had been almost a year since he had played a game.

Jerry O'Connell is in. Sendhil Ramamurthy is out.
O'Connell will co-star in the NBC dramedy pilot "Rex Is Not Your Lawyer," swapping out for "Heroes" star Sendhil Ramamurthy who was originally cast in the role, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Ramamurthy had a scheduling conflict with "Heroes," and since "Rex" was in second position, it needed to find a replacement. O'Connell recently wrapped the horror movie "Piranha 3-D." He also starred in the short-lived FOX series "Do Not Disturb" and other Freshman Flops.
In "Rex," former "Doctor Who" star David Tennant will play top Chicago litigator Rex Alexander whose panic attacks lead him to cope by coaching clients to represent themselves. O'Connell steps in as Rex's friend and fellow lawyer who happens to fall in love with Rex's fiancee (Abigail Spencer).
Also cast are Lindsay Kraft as Rex's assistant/waitress-singer-songwriter and Cleo King as one of Rex's clients, a bus driver with a wrongful termination case.
Also previously announced were Jane Curtin and Jeffrey Tambor.
In other pilot news, CBS is developing a drama based on best-selling author James Patterson's upcoming novel "Private," which centers on Jack Morgan, an ex-Marine and former CIA agent who takes over his dad's detective and security business.
"Fringe's" Jason Cahill will adapt the book and executive produce the project with Twentieth Century Fox TV and Imagine TV's Brian Grazer and David Nevins.
"Private," co-written with Maxine Paetro is scheduled to hit bookshelves on June 28.

Belfalls Electric Cooperative
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
|This article is an orphan, as no other articles link to it. Please introduce links to this page from related articles; try the Find link tool for suggestions. (February 2009)
Belfalls Electric Cooperative Association was a rural utility cooperative headquartered in Rosebud, Texas.
The cooperative was formed in 1936. Prior to its end as a separate entity, the cooperative currently served 5,206 meters with 1,441 miles of line.
The cooperative's territory included portions of Bell, Falls, and Milam counties, all located in Central Texas. The cooperative's name was a portmanteau of Bell and Falls counties.
On July 1, 2007, the cooperative's members voted to merge with McLennan County Electric Cooperative; the combined entity began operations under the name Heart of Texas Electric Cooperative with the main office in McGregor, Texas (the location of the McLennan offices) and the Rosebud office becoming a branch office.

1-2-3 Come Do Some Snowflake Alphabet Activities With Me
Because my Y5s need to review letters throughout the year, I thought it would be fun to design some snowflake-themed alphabet activities; thus this snowflake letter craft was born.
It's very versatile, as younger kiddos can simply snip & glue their initial.
For added pizzazz have children glue their school photograph inside the small snowflake and write their name on the larger one, then arrange and glue them to their letter craft.
If your kiddos have lockers, laminate and display there.
I've also included 3 writing prompt worksheet options for older children.
Choose which one is most appropriate for your students, or give them a choice.They attach the worksheet to their initial.
One option practices the vocabulary associated with letters. "Cc is for Cody and cat, crayon, clown, circle, crown & car."
So that the letter "pops" out, have children choose 2 colors to write their words.
For added pizzazz have them draw and color a picture of one of the words.
Another writing prompt option, "I am unique like a snowflake!" helps students get to know a bit more about their classmates.
I find that children really enjoy sharing about themselves, so filling in the blanks on this worksheet (favorite color, food, animal etc.) is an especially fun activity for them. When everyone is done, have them "show & share" their completed project.
The 3rd writing prompt option, is also a fill-in-the-blank worksheet which revolves around their letter and name, and practices counting.
Since all of the worksheets are so different, you could easily stretch this activity over several days doing all 3 prompts.
Completed projects make interesting & awesome wintry bulletin boards too.
I've included a "Letters are 'snow' much fun!" poster for the center of your display.
Teachers can also assign a letter to each student then hang the completed alphabet cards up as a winter border, or use them as large flashcards.
These could also be collected, collated and made into a class-made, wintry alphabet book.
Introduce the craftivity with my snowflake "Hush!" poem. So that the poem easily transitions into the activity, I added another stanza on a separate poster: "We made our time together, snowing blowing better, making a snowflake letter!"
I've provided one in color, which can also be part of your bulletin board display, as well as a BW version for students to color, take home and read to their families.
The poem is packed with Dolch sight words and offers a nice rhyming review and easy way to include the poetry genre into your lessons.
* Besides the snowflake letter writing prompt craftivity, there's also a Venn diagram compare & contrast activity, and a set of lovely snowflake cards perfect for sorting, patterning, or playing a Memory Match game with.
* For more letter practice, I've included 2 sets of snowflake-themed, upper & lowercase letter cards, along with a 4-page tip list of what you can do with them, including games like "What's Missing?", "Hidden Letter" and "Kaboom!".
* There's also a set of snowflake alphabet puzzles, plus a "How many words can you make using the letters in snowflake?" worksheet, with a 111-word answer key.
* The "I Spy a Letter!" game sheets are a quick, easy & fun way to whole group assess upper or lowercase letters.
* The 6 bonus worksheets are nice for early finishers, homework or a sub tub.
* Another super-fun way to practice letters and whole group assess, is with the snowflake slider craftivity.
There's a strip for uppercase letters, and another for lowercase.
I have my students choose 2 different color highlighters, so that they can trace the letters in an ABAB pattern.
To play the assessment game, call out a letter. Students pull their slider strip up or down 'til they locate that letter in the "window" of their snowflake, then hold it up.
You can see at a glance who is having difficulty. My students absolutely LOVE making and collecting sliders, so we do one each month featuring a seasonal theme that practices a variety of standards.
Woo hoo! There are two featured FREEBIES today. The first one is a quick, easy & fun snowflake craftivity that your kiddos will really enjoy doing with their families.
Completed projects make an awesome bulletin board. My students love pointing out their family's picture, which is especially nice for preschoolers who often miss their moms during the day.
The next one is a "Shapely Snow Angels" emergent reader booklet featuring 2D shapes. I hope you find it useful.
Well that's it for now. Today's the perfect day to putz with more snowflake activities, as zillions of them are dancing in the breeze outside my office window.
Wishing you a snuggly day, filled to the brim with fun.
"Snowflakes may be delicate and fragile, but look what they can do when they stick together!"
1-2-3 Come Have Some Fun With Chrysanthemum And Me
I thought I had finished up designing some quick, easy and fun activities to go with the story "Chrysanthemum", 'til I had a request from Erin in Idaho.
Her preschool has adopted the "Bucket Filling" program and she wondered if I could tie that concept in with the "Chrysanthemum" story.
Great idea Erin, and easy-peasy to do, as the theme of "Chrysanthemum" is all about being kind, and careful with the things you say. Thus "Bucket Filling With Chrysanthemum" was born.
After reading the story, children transition to making a list of "bucket dipping" moments in the story, as well as "bucket filling" times on the 2 worksheets.
I've also included color copies so you can do this as a whole group activity as well.
The packet also includes several posters: "We are a bucket-filling classroom", "Easily Fill A Bucket By . . ." plus a "Please Don't Be A Dipper".
The "Chrysanthemum's ABCs of Bucket Filling" worksheets help build vocabulary while practicing letter sounds.
These can be done individually, or use the colorful ones with a whole group.
I've included answer keys with lots of alliterative options: "Aa: aid, applaud, ask, award, advise, affirm, acknowledge…"
Finally, students can use the little Chrysanthemum "bucket cards" to encourage each other. There's a set in color so that you can leave your students a compliment or note as well.
I was now in the Chrysanthemum mode again, so I also designed some Chrysanthemum-Themed Alphabet Number Puzzles.
Because the story is all about this little mouse's name, I like to transition my kiddos to some name writing activity afterwards.
These puzzles provide a super-fun way to do that, plus children get in some uppercase alphabet practice too.
They're a real "sanity saver" as children are happily engaged coloring, cutting, then putting their puzzle together.
While they work independently you are freed up. Woo hoo!
The puzzles mix math with literacy, as they help practice sequencing numbers from 1-10, working on those toughie teen numbers, as well as skip counting by 10s.
Simply choose which number concept is most appropriate for your students.
For a fun back to school bulletin board, have children mount their puzzle to a sheet of construction paper leaving a little gap between each strip, which will create an interesting mosaic effect.
I've included 2 "ABC 1-2-3 Look Who's In The Class With Me!" posters to use for the center of your display. (Plus preschool, kindergarten and 1st grade as well).
There's also a colorful Chrysanthemum puzzle (1-10, 11-20, & counting by 10s) to use as an independent math center, plus an additional name writing worksheet where children finish drawing Chrysanthemum.
Finally, while I was putzing with this, another name activity popped in my head, so I created a quick, easy & fun "color, cut & glue" name craft, which provides wonderful fine motor practice, plus assists children in learning how to spell their name as they begin to recognize those letters.
Completed projects make a sweet back to school bulletin board too. Besides the name craft, the packet also includes:
* Separate upper & lowercase letter cards, as well as a set of cards with both the upper and lowercase letter on one card.
Use them for Memory Match and "I Have; Who Has?" games.
I've also included a 4-page tip list of other ideas for the cards, including the "Kaboom!" game as well as . . .
* A variety of letter worksheets plus…
* Some simple letter games like "What Letter Did Chrysanthemum Hide Today?" and "What's Missing?", as well as several dice worksheet games.
Today's featured FREEBIE is a set of 10 Classroom Management Posters. I hope you find them useful.
Well that's it for today. Thanks for stopping by. Time to move on to another theme.
Hmmm... shall I start working on "Chicka Boom" or "If You Take A Mouse To School" stuff? Stay tuned. I'll be doing both before August disappears.
Wishing you a carefree, happily lazy kind of relaxing day.
"Children must be taught how to think, not what to think."-Margaret Mead
1-2-3 Come Do Some Alphabet Activities With Me
I'm working away at the ever popular alphabet wheels. I featured Aa is for Apple in September, and Pp is for Pumpkin in October.
For November, I just completed Ll is for Leaf, Tt is for Turkey and Vv is for Veterans.
Since we continue to work on the alphabet throughout the year, it's nice to add something new to my Alphabet Center activities each month.
Because of the seasonal themes, the Alpha Wheels are a perfect addition, and my kiddos LOVE making them.
I enjoy them, because they are a quick, easy & fun way to practice letters, and build the vocabulary needed to give an example of a word, with that beginning sound.
They feature 6 nouns that begin with that letter, and come in black & white, as well as full-color.
Use a colorful one for an independent center and use the black & white pattern for a whole-group or individual word work activity, where kiddos make their own.
You'll find that your students will look forward to making and collecting them.
For writing, vocabulary building and alphabetizing practice, I've also included a worksheet where students trace & write the words then put them in alphabetical order.
Click on the pictures or hot links above, to zip on over to my TpT shop to have a look.
I sincerely hope these alpha-wheels make letter practice more fun for your kiddos.
Fittingly, the featured FREEBIE today, is an alphabet packet, with a set of alphabet cards & poster which you can play games with. I hope you find it useful.
That's it for today. A work crew is coming in to put a new window in my office, so I don't get to "play" today, but it's time and money well-spent, as I won't be freezing all winter!
Wishing you a relaxing day.
1-2-3 Come Read With Me
Hooray for Dollar Deals from Diane.
Here's another emergent reader "just the right size"alphabet booklet.
I hope your kiddos are enjoying them as much as mine did. You know you've got a winner when your students ask for another one!
They're truly a quick, easy and fun way to reinforce a variety of standards.
Besides the 4-on-a-page template, I've also included an 8-on-a-page pattern, so that you can make an "Itty Bitty Alpha-bits" booklet if you want.
Using the pictures as a guide, children read the page, trace the letters, write the letters, then color the picture.
Afterwards, they cut the pages into 1/4ths (grab that teachable moment to review fractions if you're studying them) collate the pages and then staple their booklet together.
When everyone has completed their booklet, read it together as a whole group to cover concepts of print, and reinforce the repetitive text.
Even though my Y5's were technically not really "reading", they "got it" because of the repetitious sentences and picture clues.
I think one of the reasons they loved making these little booklets was because they could share them with their family. They were really proud of themselves.
There's also a "Color Me" alphabet poster, which comes on a full page, as well as 2-on-a-page, and is the featured FREEBIE today. Click on the link to grab your copy.
Children can color their poster all at once, or keep the poster in their writing journals, and color only the letters that they have studied & mastered.
This is a wonderful visual way for kiddos to see how much they are learning in a short amount of time--a real self-esteem builder.
You can also use the poster to play an "I Spy a Letter" game.
Give children an M&M or other manipulative.
Call out a letter; children cover it with their playing piece.
You can see at a glance who is having difficulty, which makes this a quick, easy & fun way to whole group assess.
Click on the link to pop on over to my TpT shop for this latest Emergent Reader Dollar Deal. While you're over there, I would so appreciate it if you'd follow me; you'll know when I post more Dollar Deals & FREEBIES that way. Thanks in advance.
Well that's it for today. I need to get going on apple stuff before it's pumpkin time! So LOVE fall. Wishing you a day filled with giggles.

1-2-3 Come Practice the "Owl-phabet" With Me
I'm delighted to post anotherDollar Deal from Diane.
This "owl-phabet" craftivity is a super-fun way for students to practice upper & lowercase letters .
Look closely at Ollie the owl's eyes. You will see an uppercase letter in one, and a lowercase letter in the other. Ollie is one of my "Turn & Learn" alphabet wheels.
Play "I Spy" a letter & have children turn the "eye wheels" 'til they've found both.
They hold their owl in the air, and you can see at a glance who is having difficulty.
You can also play "Whoooo has a clue?" Call on a child to choose a letter, then give 3 clues to the class. For example: "My letter is a vowel; it comes before P and after N. What's the "mystery letter?"
Children turn the owl's "eyes" 'til they've found it. "Whoooo was the first? Is that person correct?"
I've also included a few owl-themed worksheets and a "color me" bookmark in the packet.
Besides playing games with Ollie, use it as a non-threatening way to assess.
Turn Ollie into an "Owl" miss you!" activity at the end of the year, so that students can review letters over the summer, lest they forget all you've crammed into their heads.
For a quick & easy way to make the letter "windows" in the eye, I used a circle paper punch.
I set Ollie up as a center/station activity that children get to do after they have completed their morning table top work.
All of the pieces and parts are on a table, with a variety of colors to choose from. They pick out their parts & return to their desks to put Ollie together.
You can also do this as a whole-group "monkey see-monkey do" activity, where you demonstrate the assembly step-by-step & children copy what you are doing.
Click on the link to pop on over to my TpT shop to grab Ollie for just a dollar. I hope your kiddos enjoy their owl-phabet pal as much as mine did.
The featured FREEBIE for today is a set of owl alphabet cards. Click on the link to get your set today. There are 3 sets in the packet. Owls showing both the upper & lowercase letters, as well as separate sets of each, so that you can play Memory Match, Speed, and "I Have; Who Has?" games.
Well that's it for now. Thanks for visiting. It's still chilly out, so time to grab my jacket and take my poodle pup Chloe for a walk.
Right now she's asleep under my desk. Maybe she thinks it's a bit too nippy today too.

1-2-3 Come Pair Up With Me
Welcome to another one of Diane's Dollar Deals. This cutie-patootie, Pair Pears Packet is packed with versatility.
At the beginning of the year, when children are learning their classmates' names, glue a photo on the top of the pear, and write students' names on the bottom half.
Children can match their friend's photo to their name in an independent "get to know you" center.
Use the puzzle pair pears as a classroom management tool for a fun way to have children partner up.
Use them to play games like Memory Match & "I Have Who Has?"
I have included pairs that review shapes/shape words, numbers/number words, and uppercase/lowercase letters etc.
You can also run the templates off so that each student can make either an alphabet, number or shape booklet.
Covers are included, as well as blank pears for you to program with whatever.
Be sure and grab the "teachable moment" to discuss homonyms.
Click on the link to grab this super-fun Pair Pears Dollar Deal.
The featured FREEBIE for today, includes another fun way to pick a partner.
"It's Partner Time!" is an "oldie but goodie" that I made years ago, before all of the cool graphics programs, fonts & clipart that I now use.
Yet it's still popular & a fun way to practice colors, shapes & numbers while picking a partner.
Well that's it for now. Thanks for visiting.
I'm busy working on the rest of my letter packets. Wishing you a peaceful & productive day.

1-2-3 Come Do Some Super-Fun Alphabet Activies With Me
Whether you do a letter of the week, or review a letter a day, I think you & your kiddos will enjoy my newest creation: The Letter Aa packet.
I know there are a zillion letter activities out there, but I think I've come up with some really creative & different ones, that will help make learning the alphabet especially fun.
I've incorporated a variety of standards for reading, writing, and even tossed in some math, so that you get more bang for your "time buck", as you can review additional things besides one letter of the alphabet.
This is the first in a series of letter packets.
Countless hours went into designing it, because I wanted to create a format that I could use with every letter.
The consistency, will empower students, as they can get right down to business because they know what to do.
This independence builds confidence, which leads to self-esteem.
Teaching's a breeze because you don't have to waste time continuing to give directions or explaining what you want your kiddos to do.
Children are responsible & accountable, which frees you up to work one-on-one with strugglers.
The packets are a big & loaded with lots of variety.
There are activities to suit various levels, as well as practice reading & writing skills at the same time.
Simply choose what's right for you and build your lesson plan.
You'll have plenty left over, to use in a sub folder, as homework, independent centers, or for early finishers.
The packet includes:
* Posters & anchor charts
* Emergent readers
* Lots of Worksheets
* Pocket chart cards
* and a variety of Games.
* There are also several "craftivities" such as the letter pennant.
Children decorate their pennant with things that start with the letter Aa. They can use stickers, pictures cut from magazines, words, letters, & clip art.
* There are Bookmarks
* Puzzles
* A Song
* A Maze
* and a Word Search.
Another thing that I included in the packet are "Learn & Earn" brag tags. I think your kiddos will really enjoy collecting them.
There's one for each letter of the alphabet, plus a star-student one to hand out, when they've learned all of the letters.
Simply run the tag template off on card stock, trim, punch a hole at the top and attach them with split ring.
You can buy 8 in a package at The Dollar Store. There are large teacher tags, which you can use as flashcards.
The split ring makes it easy for children to flip through, so you can play "Flip & Find". You hold up your letter tag & children see who can find theirs the fastest.
You can also ask for the letter that is before or after the letter that you're showing them.
* There are a variety of writing prompts too. My personal favorite is the Letter Aa Post Card.
Children fill in the blanks with things that begin with the letter Aa. Grab a teachable moment with "How to address correspondence".
My Alphabet Wheels have been so popular, that I wanted to make a set for each individual letter.
There's a color copy for the teacher, as well as a black & white one, so that students can make their own.
Each packet will also have an alliterative story.
This packet features "Going Ape". Counting how many featured letters are in the story, will provide additon practice as well.
Besides a letter story and alphabet wheel, each letter packet will also have a "_______ is for . . ." flip booklet.
These are emergent readers that help reinforce pronouns too.
The background picture features something that begins with that letter. For the letter Aa I used an apple.
* A 100 chart hidden letter provides more math practice.
* There's also a class book writing prompt and
* A Word Work booklet plus
*A cute certificate of praise, with 2 on a page to save paper.
Have students keep them all together, and when done staple their "Letter Achievement" booklet together.
* Also included is an "I found the sound" activity as well as
* A "growing" alphabet booklet (As you study a new letter that page will be added to this Itty Bitty "Alpha-bits" booklet.
My Y5s really enjoy making "Itty Bitty" things that are "just the right size" for them. With that in mind, I designed a "Pocket Full Of Practice".
Since lined paper is really inexpensive because of the loss leaders supply stores have, (I picked up a pack of 100 sheets for just a quarter) I decided to have my kiddos fold a sheet into a pocket, to hold "small stuff" that they completed from the letter packet.
Everything is in one place, things don't get lost in the bottom of a backpack, and parents have a nice little keepsake. The paper pocket full of practice, is also included in every letter packet.
Because these packets are over 100 pages each (The Aa packet is a whopping 140 pages long!) I will not be "bundling" them, when they are all finished.
I will however, sell them for only $3.00, instead of the usual $4.95 for packets with this amount of work. As an added bonus, the first 48 hours they will be on sale for just $2.50.
So that you can take advantage of the savings, if you are a follower of mine, you will get an e-mail notification from TpT when I post a new packet. Click on this link to pop on over to my shop.
Since it's September, and "apple time" here in Michigan, today's FREEBIE is a sweet little "You Can Count On Willie" craftivity. I hope you like it. Click on the link to grab yours today.
That's it for now. TGIF! My brain has been on overload working on alphabet "stuff" so it's time for a much-needed break.
I'm not sure what that might be, but here's wishing you a wonderful weekend.

1-2-3 Come Do Some Alphabet and Number Activities With Me
Amy, from Kentucky, asked if I was going to do a Kissing Hand -Themed activity packet for the alphabet, or one for counting & numbers that would match the trio that I posted this past week. Like me, she likes to teach a variety of standards using a theme.
I actually had one in the works, which includes both, and just finished it today! Woo hoo. This ABC-123, raccoon-themed packet, matches the other 3 "Kissing Hand" inspired packets: Literacy, Shapes & Where's the Raccoon?
The ABC-123 includes the following:
3 sets of letter cards: uppercase, lowercase, & both UC & LC on one card, so you can play all sorts of games like Memory Match, "I Have; Who Has?", Kaboom & Speed. I've included a 4-page tip list of ideas & directions.
An accordion-fold out, "trace the letters" booklet.
0-10, number & number word pocket chart cards, with a matching poster.
9 number puzzles (color + black & white) to practice numbers 1-10, counting backwards from 10-1, as well as skip counting by 10s to 100.
Use for an independent center & games. Run off the black line ones for children to color, cut & make their own number puzzle.
Counting Kisses 0-10 poster, with a matching worksheet & game cards.
An accordion-fold out Counting Kisses booklet.
Large (8x10) Counting Kisses poster cards for numbers 0-10, with a matching set of 5x7 cards. Use as anchor chart posters & flash cards.
A matching booklet for students. They glue on the appropriate number of kiss "stickers".
5 number worksheets.
2 roll & color games. You can also use these as "I Spy" game worksheets.
A letter poster showing the arrow directions to write letters, with a matching worksheet, along with 5 other alphabet worksheets.
2 "I Spy A Letter" game sheets for whole-group assessing upper & lowercase letters, with a recording sheet.
A raccoon "slider" craftivity for upper & lowercase letters, numbers 1-20, counting backwards from 10-0 & 20-0; plus slider strips for skip counting by 2s, 3s, 5s, & 10s. A quick, easy & fun way to whole group assess. Includes an assessment sheet.
Upper & lowercase assessment mats & recording sheets, along with a set of upper & lowercase Kissing Hand letter cards, and an alphabet matching game.
Click on the link to pop on over to my TpT shop to take a peek at my newest Kissing Hand packet: ABCs & 123s.
However, since many teachers offer a bundle to give you added savings, I combined this new ABC-123 packet, with the Shape & "Where's the Raccoon?" packets.
You'll save $3 by buying the bundle, as this 247-page whopper, is only $10.95. Click on the link to pop on over to my TpT shop to check it out: Kissing Hand Bundle.
And now for today's featured FREEBIE: A "Dear Students..." poster. Perfect for back to school. Click on the link to grab it.
Well that's it for today. It's super-hot and muggy here in my little corner of the world.
Yuk! Humidity really zaps my energy, so it's time to escape for a dip in the the pool. Wishing you a refreshing day filled with Ahhhhh moments.
"The man who is swimming against the stream knows the strength of it." -Woodrow Wilson
1-2-3 Come Do Some Alphabet Activities With Me
Since the lowercase picture-word puzzles have been so popular, I decided to make a few more matching items.
I don't know about you, but I like when things are coordinated. This new packet is an Alphabet Poster Packet with 74-pages of goodies.
As with the puzzle packet, these items can also be used as an independent center or whole-group activity.
The packet includes:
26 (8x10) full-color lowercase letter posters.
Use them as toppers for your word wall letter columns, a border, bulletin board, or jumbo flashcards.
Laminate a set and put them in your alphabet center. Using a dry erase marker, students choose several cards and record other words that they can think of, or copy words from your word wall.
A set of full-color alphabet cards. Use them for Memory Match, "I Have; Who Has?" games, or put them on a split ring and use as flashcards.
I've included a 4-page tip list of what else to do with the cards, including more games, like Kaboom.
"Alphabetize the Words" game, with 140 mini word cards that match the pictures inside the letters, plus a blank template for you to program with more words from your word wall.
A boy and girl "ABC Look At Me" alphabetize the words, recording sheet.
Besides placing word cards on the various letter mats, students can also choose X number of cards and write them on their recording sheet in alphabetical order.
On the back, older students can use the words to make several sentences.
Two, "What letter is missing?" posters. Put one on the top and one on the bottom, with a set of the abc cards in alphabetical order in the middle.
Each morning ask students what letter is missing?
A "What letter is hiding?" poster. Hinge to the wall or your whiteboard with a piece of Scotch tape, so that it flips up.
Place one of the letter cards under it. Give 3 clues. Children try and guess what letter is hiding, before you flip it up to find the answer.
I've also included a word booklet where students can record words on the appropriate pages.
This packet matches the popular Alphabet (numbered strip) Puzzles, as well as the ABC Flip Up packet.
As you can see, the packet is very versatile. I think you'll find it extremely useful and a nice time saver.
Click on the link to pop on over to my TpT shop; 74-pages and just $4.95. Once laminated, you can use these items year-after-year!
As always, I have a FREEBIE for you too. There is so much "paper-stuff" we have to pass out to families during that first week of school.
So that parents aren't overwhelmed, and really DO read these important handouts, I made up an "ABC's of School Information Sheet."
It was very successful, and I received lots of complimentary feedback. The needless questions, because I had already covered "all that" in this note, pretty much ended too. I hope you find my sample useful in creating your own. Click on the link to grab this time-saving FREEBIE.
Thanks for visiting. It's a lovely summer day and time to get ready for our big, beach-birthday bash. I've reached the wonderful age of social security. Woo Hoo, happy that I don't feel 62.
I'm really looking forward to fun in the sun, with all of my adult children, their spouses and my grandchildren. Hopefully Lake Michigan has warmed up a bit, since it's been in the high 80's all week. Wishing you a relaxing and fun-filled weekend as well.
"To go out with the setting sun on an empty beach is to truly embrace your solitude." -Jeanne Moreau
1-2-3 Come Make Some Letter Puzzles With Me
Woo hoo! I just finished another alphabet packet. I hope your little ones enjoy practicing letters with them, as much as I did designing the puzzles.
These letter puzzles are not only great as a center or word work activity, they make an inexpensive & fun gift for your kiddos for that special first day or week of school.
Print off each child's initial in color and laminate. Cut them apart, mix up the pieces and fasten with a paperclip. While you're doing all of those busy 1st-day activities, children can be putting their personal puzzle together.
Numbered strip-puzzles are a quick, easy & fun way to help your kiddos practice counting and sequencing numbers, as well as review lowercase letters and words that begin with that letter.
Each letter has a puzzle that counts by 1s to 10, counts backwards from 10 to 1 and skip counts by 10s to 100.
They are in color as well as black & white, so that on another day, they can color and create a different letter puzzle.
Make a laminated, full-color set, to use as an independent center, or do as a whole group activity.
For more word-work practice, older students cut their puzzle into strips, have them write the words that are featured in the picture.
After they have cut their puzzle into strips, they can write an additional word that begins with that letter, on the back of each strip.
For an interesting "craftivity" have students glue their puzzle to a sheet of brightly colored construction paper.
Remind them to leave a little bit of a gap between each section for an especially cool mosaic effect. Completed projects make an awesome bulletin board.
Another idea is to make a student-made classroom border, by assigning a different letter to each child. These could also be used for the letters above your word wall.
This jumbo letter puzzle packet is in my TpT shop. It's a whopping 163-pages long and just $3.95. Click on the link to pop on over. As always, there's a FREEBIE. I pulled the 6, lowercase letter "a" puzzles, so you can try them out. Click on the link to grab them.
That's it for today. Thanks for stopping by. Time to take a much-needed break and go kayacking with my hubby. Such a peaceful activity once you hit the water. Wishing you a lovely day.

Flier; Eleftheria Maratos-Flier ++ In a world where food supplies are intermittent, the ability to store energy in excess of what is required for immediate use is essential for survival. Fat cells, residing within widely distributed adipose tissue depots, are adapted to store excess energy efficiently as triglyceride and, when needed, to release stored energy as free fatty acids for use at other sites. This physiologic system, orchestrated through endocrine and neural pathways, permits humans to survive starvation for as long as several months. However, in the presence of nutritional abundance and a sedentary lifestyle, and influenced importantly by genetic endowment, this system increases adipose energy stores and produces adverse health consequences. ++ Definition and Measurement ++ Obesity is a state of excess adipose tissue mass. Although often viewed as equivalent to increased body weight, this need not be the case—lean but very muscular individuals may be overweight by numerical standards without having increased adiposity. Body weights are distributed continuously in populations, so that choice of a medically meaningful distinction between lean and obese is somewhat arbitrary. Obesity is therefore more effectively defined by assessing its linkage to morbidity or mortality. ++ Although not a direct measure of adiposity, the most widely used method to gauge obesity is the body mass index (BMI), which is equal to weight/height2 (in kg/m2) (Fig. 77-1). Other approaches to quantifying obesity include anthropometry (skinfold thickness), densitometry (underwater weighing), CT or MRI, and electrical impedance. Using data from the Metropolitan Life Tables, BMIs for the midpoint of all heights and frames among both men and women range from 19 to 26 kg/m2; at a similar BMI, women have more body fat than men. Based on data of substantial morbidity, a BMI of 30 is most commonly used as a threshold for obesity in both men and women. Large-scale epidemiologic studies suggest that all-cause, metabolic, cancer, and cardiovascular morbidity begin to rise (albeit at a slow rate) when BMIs are ≥25, suggesting that the cutoff for obesity should be lowered. Most authorities use the term overweight (rather than obese) to describe individuals with BMIs between 25 and 30. A BMI between 25 and 30 should be viewed as medically significant and worthy of therapeutic intervention, especially in the presence of risk factors that are influenced by adiposity such as hypertension and glucose intolerance. ++Figure 77-1Graphic Jump Location+View Full Size|Favorite Figure|Download Slide (.ppt)Nomogram for determining body mass index.

Soil & Water: Zinnias grow readily in ordinary garden soil in full sun. For large and abundant flowers, thin before seedlings get crowded; adequate spacing and regular, even watering helps keep zinnias productive and discourages mildew. Pick when flower blossoms first open and petals are tight for longest vase life. Cut long stems well back into the plant to keep plants branching low and producing best blooms.
Planting & Growing:To Start Directly in the Garden: Sow seeds in a well-worked seedbed in full sun when the danger of frost has passed and weather is above 50°F both day and night. Space seeds 3", cover about 1/2" and gently firm soil. Keep evenly moist while awaiting germination. Thin seedlings to 10 - 12" apart when large enough to handle. To Start Early Indoors: Four weeks before the last frost date, sow seeds 1/2" deep and 3" apart in containers of seed starting mix. Keep warm and moist and provide a strong light source. Feed with half-strength fertilizer every 2 weeks. Just as soon as seedlings have several sets of true leaves, and weather is above 50°F both day and night, transplant outdoors about 8 - 10" apart.

I've seen everything from baby cow rodeos to re-runs of old 80s strongman competitions. So I guess it shouldn't be too big a surprise to see that, over a decade ago, ESPN2 was broadcasting...Magic Card tournaments. Advertisement This footage is the final of the 2000 Magic World Championships, and shows Jon Finkel up against Bob Maher. It's not exactly riveting stuff, but the appeal here is that as far back as 2000 ESPN was broadcasting Magic Card tournaments.Shame they stopped, really. If ESPN can make poker appeal to people watching a TV, surely today's Magic scene, which features more professional and presentable art, could still work. These clips are from 2007, but it's popped back up this week, so if you've never seen it, it's worth a look. Fascinating stuff!

Mobile home park scrutinized
West Allis mobile home park operator ordered to follow codes and clean up property
West Allis has begun proceedings to revoke the license of Mobile Estates Mobile Home Park, 10401 W. Greenfield Ave., with 45 mobile homes because repairs and a cleanup ordered in December are still not done, officials said last week.
The Common Council License and Health Committee decided to start the process after park operator Thaddues Derynda did not come in to discuss the list of deficiencies he was supposed to fix.
Derynda was pursuing a license for the park to operate when the committee told him to improve the park. He failed to appear before the committee about the alleged problems.
The revocation procedure will involve a formal hearing, and a date has not been set. The hearing will be before the License and Health Committee, which will give a recommendation to the Common Council.
The process is fairly long and Ted Atkinson, director of building inspection, said, "He may get this stuff done."
Neither Derynda nor his attorney returned phone calls.
For the last three years, ordered repairs have not been done on time at the mobile home park, Atkinson said. The park operated with no current license for the years 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 while the city worked with Derynda on the list of deficiencies for those years, Atkinson said. Derynda had missed several other meetings during that time, he said. The wrangle even involved taking Derynda to municipal court.
"Part of the issue is his former track record," Atkinson said.
All the problems pinpointed in those previous years are now fixed, however; and the licenses were approved for all three of those years, Atkinson said. The mobile home park has applied for a license for 2013-14, and a new inspection was conducted resulting in the new list of problems. That list was given to Derynda in December, Atkinson said.
It included three overall park violations and 24 violations applying to individual mobile homes.
Orders applying to the overall park are to remove dead trees and brush, remove litter and garbage throughout the park, and repair the sanitary sewer system to proper working and code-compliant condition.
The individual home violations listed are removing what's left of a mobile home that has been mostly razed and removing debris on the site, repairing skirting, installing guardrails, removing improper outdoor storage, removing garbage in yard, repairing broken windows, removing an abandoned vehicle, repairing decks to be code compliant, removing a shed, repairing a damaged fence, repairing a boarded window, repairing a wooden fence and removing branches on a home roof and from gutters.

It is tempting to put this down to the problems of glitzy and glamorous relationships, the inevitably heady chemistry of fame, too much travel, prima donna egos and overwork. But the truth is that what is happening to famous career couples is little different from what is happening to many ordinary people.
Charles Handy puts it well in his book The Age of Unreason (Arrow, pounds 6.99). It is rare, he says, for career couples to have happy and lasting relationships precisely because so much energy is put into achieving success at work. For a relationship to thrive it requires a lot of investment of time and energy. Often, public success for one partner depends on the other being altruistic and caring.
Not long ago, of course, this was the norm. But today most households have two earners. Few women are content any more to be the power behind the throne, the shoulder to cry on. Instead they want the bright lights and the sense of identity that comes from a good job. It is little wonder that surveys show that schoolgirls now talk of wanting careers first and family second and that they are eager to take advantage of the opportunities not available to previous generations of women.
For many women the desire to achieve at work is almost overwhelming. Relationships have to fit around work, not the other way round. As one professional woman in her late twenties said, "Sometimes I feel I am striving and driving so hard for a career, I forget there are other things in life which are important."
Many - especially professionals - are in geographically-strained relationships, struggling to maintain contact with long-distance phone calls and snatched weekends away. Although they are aware their relationships are suffering, many say that if push comes to shove, they would put work first.Perhaps because work has become the source of so much personal gratification and the place where so many people spend such a lot of their time, it is not only a contributory factor in relationship breakdown, it is also the place where many clandestine relationships are started.
Taking account of another person's ambitions as well as your own is bad enough. But the strains on relationships are amplified by other factors. After a long decline throughout this century, working hours began rising in the Eighties and have continued to climb in the Nineties. The lunch hour is a thing of the past and the Britishwork the longest hours in Europe. The "time squeeze" that haunts people's lives is clearly putting relationships and family life under strain. No wonder that as many as 80 per cent of working mothers and 88 per cent of working fathers aged between 18 and 34 told a recent survey by Mori Socioconsult that they want to spend more time with their families and would welcome greater flexibility over their working hours.
Perhaps because of this time pressure, there is a new mood to the Nineties which is in stark contrast to the go-getting work-oriented Eighties. A book published this week, After Success by Professor Ray Pahl (pounds 12.99, Polity Press) argues that many successful people are now re-evaluating their achievements and seeking fulfilment beyond work. Having reached their forties and fifties, they are all too aware of the heavy price they have had to pay for their careers.
It is not only the middle-aged who are questioning their values. A younger generation with high expectations of fulfilment at work want to fulfil themselves outside of work as well. Because they are growing up amid endemic job insecurity, they are bound to question just how wise it is to invest all their emotional energy in work when jobs are becoming so much less reliable. Many, too, are aware of how many mistakes their parents made, especially in terms of relationships, and that achievement in one domain was matched by failure elsewhere.
Perhaps because of this the young are redefining the meaning of success to encompass the private as well as the public sphere, with many finding identities through personal relationships - networks of friends and family - as well as through work. It is not surprising that many of them flock to see films such as Slackers, Reality Bites and Before Sunrise which catch the mood of a generation searching for meaning in their lives in a world where the rules are being rewritten.
Across the world this questioning of work, success and personal fulfilment is visible. Even in Japan, commentators lament the changing work ethic of the "grasshopper" generation who are now refusing to put in hours at work that are not mandatory and who organise their lives around the three Vs: villas, visits and vistas.
It would be marvellous to think that in the Nineties we were seeing a shift towards a more balanced work ethic with renewed emphasis on relationships and family life. But don't hold your breath.
For all these signs of change, it is hard to be wholly optimistic. Perhaps our greatest obstacle is that as a society we still define success by what we do, rather than who we are. Our culture lauds the public world of work much more than the private world of relationships and family life. We still have different standards of success for women than for men, and women pay a high price for trying to have it all.
I wonder whether there is another way. Many career couples are trying to work together - in restaurants and shops and consultancies and law firms - to contain the pressures. With the advent of the flexible labour market, the family firm may well be reborn, with more people linking the home to the workplace in ways that were once quite common before the advent of the industrial society.
That is perhaps why Thompson and Branagh's relationship has hit problems. Once the epitome of the working-together couple, recently their careers and relationship have become increasingly divorced from each other, no longer intimately connected. Perhaps inevitably, distance meant that they stopped working hard enough at the relationship.
Whatever the causes, the very public playing out of the private dramas affecting our golden career couple is a timely reminder of how difficult it is to achieve the right balance between success in one sphere and failure in another.
If the photographs of Thompson this week are anything to go by, one wonders if she feels that she andBranagh have paid too high a price for their success.

A very fun watch and extremely hilarious at times. It takes a humorous approach to some very serious situations. Mary Alice's narration can get annoying at times as she says, "Yes..." too often. But the characters are easy to fall in love with and it's always a bummer when they kill one off!

It was an exhausting and tough day for the 45 competing teams, as the wind gusted up to sometimes 25 knots. Two out of three races had a big reach. The sailors enjoyed the exciting competition and the Pelican Pier Party afterwards.
Coca Cola Race 5 - "Racing is similar to the F18 Europeans"
"It was windy", was Gunnar LARSEN's first reaction back on the Palm Beach. "The level of racing is similar to the F18 Europeans. It is really close and tough." LARSEN and TENTIJ changed positions with James POWER and Gillian POWER (GBR) all the time. POWER commented, "Xander POLS was actually leading at the first upwind mark, followed by Gunnar and us. I think it was the second downwind that Xander lost a bit. Mischa and Eduard caught up on us, but we were battling with Gunnar and Bastiaan."
On the last beat, the POWER's chose the right side of the course, whereas LARSEN and TENTIJ both went left. POWER: "We had a favourable shift and got ahead of them. We saw pressure on the left and gibed after the hoist. As we got into it, the gust suddenly disappeared. Gunnar saw that and carried on to the right and won. It was so close. It could have been anyone's race."
LARSEN explained his strategy: "We go for the edges, but we stay safe. We try not to push over the limit. We consolidated during the race and grabbed our chance on the last lap. But I have deeply respect for Gillian POWER. She holds on in changing positions at 25 knots."
Aruba Aloe Race 6 - Good counting makes a difference
Some black clouds and rain preceded the first race in the afternoon. The race committee decided it was time to train the reach, so the fleet sailed a triangle course with two sausages (one for the slower cats). That was a challenge with the strong gusts up to 20-25 knots, but the teams hang on surprisingly well. ZANEN and HEEMSKERK were smoking, with LARSEN and TENTIJ in their wake. POLS and VEENSTRA followed in third position. Wouter SAMAMA explained, "We gained a spot in the gate and were just behind Xander. He was quicker upwind and we on the run."
The two front runners had a big lead, as they passed the finish line for another lap. They miscounted and so did Xander POLS, but he noticed it in time and quickly turned around. SAMAMA and FRANK took the bullet, followed by Stuart GUMMER. SAMAMA: "Finally we had some luck." HEEMSKERK with a smile: "That was very kind of us, wasn't it."
Palm Tours Race 7 - "Awesome racing"
While rigging down the sails, LARSEN and HEEMSKERK joked about their last race. The two Nacra Infusions had a very close battle on the downwind run. LARSEN to HEEMSKERK's skipper Eduard ZANEN: "In case you would have looked around, you would have seen our spinnaker pole."
They had a gibe duel, which was won by ZANEN and HEEMSKERK. On the second downwind run, Stuart GUMMER (GBR) caught up on LARSEN and TENTIJ. GUMMER: "I heard they were match racing with James and Gillian, which probably helped us."
After a good start, GUMMER got tangled up by a Tornado just after rounding the first mark, but he managed to catch up on the run. GUMMER: "Richard ALLEN was just before us on the reach and we overtook him. In the second beat, we tacked away to the left and gained on the front runners."
On the final reach and run, he chased ZANEN and HEEMSKERK, who stayed ahead. HEEMSKERK: "We covered on GUMMER on the last lap towards the finish and won. The competition is just great. You can not allow yourself any mistakes." ZANEN: "It is different from other years. It is such a competitive fleet." GUMMER was almost speechless: "It was an awesome last race."
One Happy Family Grijpma
The small fleet of slower catamarans (eight entries) includes two boats crewed by the GRIJPMA family. The brothers Sil (10) and Rens (12) teamed up with their dad Rob on the Prindle 19. Their sister Frederique (16) crews for her mom Francis on a Dart 18. Sil, while waiting for the beach shower: "The reaching was very fast. We nearly nose dived a couple of times. I did not dare to go on the wire and my dad said we shouldn't do that." The 'boys' crew is in second position overall after seven races. Frederique had a hard day, as they capsized twice: "But I do like it very much. We never sailed together before this event and we are learning so fast now." At the moment, the 'girls' team is fourth overall.

someone over in the UK might be able to help me here.
I will attach a pdf file of 'Diana Greenfell' to this letter. You will not
that I have very little information on it. My source was a 6-4-99 AHSE
letter. I think this is a British Isle introduction so we might have to
hear from Tom Saville on this hosta,
