The New York Yankees will eagerly welcome Andy Pettitte back to their rotation Tuesday night, hopeful the venerable left-hander can help stabilize a staff with a paucity of reliable starters as the playoffs loom.
And they'll keep a watchful eye on Derek Jeter, nursing a bone bruise in his left foot that has relegated him to designated hitter duties in a season in which, at 38, he's been arguably the most valuable shortstop in the American League.
As the Yankees embark on a two-week sprint to what they hope is a postseason berth, they are, at 83-63, an imperfect team clinging to a one-game lead in the AL East and surely bemoaning some missing parts that could help right about now.
And then there's one player they could certainly use, but hardly miss.
Mariano Rivera.
Remember him? Yes, when Rivera crumpled to the Kauffman Stadium warning track with a torn knee ligament back on May 3, there was a grim and almost depressing air to the whole episode, as it could have marked the end of the line for the consensus greatest reliever in baseball history.
What's more, it also meant the Yankees would be turning over the ninth inning to some combination of David Robertson and Rafael Soriano, the latter a Bronx bust after posting a 4.12 ERA in the first year of a $35 million contract that was foisted upon general manager Brian Cashman.
But funny how things have worked out.
Robertson soon suffered a strained oblique, and Soriano - No. 3 on the bullpen pecking order just a couple weeks prior - was thrust into the role of Yankees closer.
Four months later, Soriano has been, at least on the field, Rivera-esque and then some.
Soriano has converted a sterling 40 of 43 save chances, a 93% conversion rate that edges Rivera's 90% mark (44 for 49) in 2011. For his career, Rivera has converted 89% of save chances.
Soriano's 40 saves since Rivera got hurt lead the major leagues. He has allowed just three earned runs in 32 road appearances, holding opponents to a .189 average.
And while he lacks Rivera's regal air, and hacked off the New York news media when he hid after one of his blown saves, his postgame ritual of ripping out his jersey has made him a happily trending topic - #untuck - in New York.
Certainly, the Yankees would be better off this year had Rivera not torn up his knee while shagging fly balls in batting practice.
Assuming Soriano came anywhere near his current performance had he remained in a set-up role all year, Rivera closing games and Soriano setting him up would have given the Yankees a dominant late-inning look.
But even still, year-over-year, they're not much worse off.
In "close-and-late" situations - appearances in the seventh inning or later with the batting team tied, ahead by one, or the tying run at least on deck - the Yankees are holding opponents to a .229 average and a .642 OPS. Their numbers in such situations last year: a .241 average, a .660 OPS against.
They are a little weaker when leading after nine innings - 91-4 in 2011 (.958), vs. 78-5 (.940) in 2012, and they've suffered six walk-off losses, two stats that could be better had their 'pen been deeper.
But that they are getting by without Rivera sets up an interesting bit of off-season drama, and perhaps should provoke some reexamination of his place in the Yankees' pantheon.
First, the off-season.
Rivera will be back if he wants to be back, obviously. Soriano? Well, when managing partner Hal Steinbrenner and team president Randy Levine jammed Soriano's contract down an oblivious Cashman's throat, it included a player option for 2013.
If he wants, Soriano can return to the Yankees for 2013, at $14 million - or, he can opt out of the deal, take a $1.5 million buyout and test the free agent market.
Given his numbers as a closer this season, Soriano will find much, much more than $14 million guaranteed on the open market. Agent Scott Boras's bet that Soriano might reestablish himself as a closer over the two years of the deal is about to pay off huge.
So, the Yankees can opt to tack a couple of years - and many millions of dollars - onto his deal before Soriano exercises his out clause. It will make for an interesting November staredown.
As for Rivera?
Well, as Jeter was approaching his 3,000th hit in 2011, myriad media outlets took a stab at ranking the greatest Yankees of all time.
More often than not, Rivera trumped Jeter, at least according to ESPN New York, Newsday, and an unscientific sampling of New York Post readers. Even just two days ago, CBS New York placed Rivera above Jeter.
That seems a bit curious. Sure, it's impossible to quantify the value of Rivera's gravitas, demeanor and dignity within the Yankees clubhouse.
But we do know this: Jeter, even at 38, might be the Yankees' best player this year. And in a year in which Rivera, Pettitte, Robertson, Alex Rodriguez, Mark Teixeira, Brett Gardner and CC Sabathia have missed significant amounts of time, his presence and production has seemed all the more invaluable.
Rivera? Yes, the Yankees would be a much better team had he not been injured. It's just been a bit surprising to see how easily they replaced him.

Like many other aspects of animal protection, the 'World Day for Laboratory Animals' started in Britain. It is held every year, on or around 24 April. This is the birthday of Lord Dowding, the wartime air chief marshal, who was a pioneer of anti-vivisection work and the founder, with Lady Dowding, of Beauty Without Cruelty.
The origins of the event are less important than the impassioned and polarised rhetoric that the subject of animal research arouses. The violence with which the debate is conducted hampers sensible decisions about public policy on the issue. Part of the problem is that each side tends to view the other in the most unflattering terms. The animal activist rejects the public image of science as an objective, rational search for Truth, choosing instead to caricature the animal researcher as at best cold and heartless or at worst a sadist. Animal welfare publications are packed with explicit or implicit images of animal torture. Their articles focus almost exclusively on the Mr Hyde behind the white-coated Dr Jekyll.
By contrast, scientists construct their own caricatures of animal activists as irrational and sentimental misanthropes who would rather see a child suffer than an animal die. With the lines so drawn, it is not surprising that we lack constructive public debate on animal research.
Both these images are a distortion of reality. Scientists, it seems, are as ambivalent about animal research as most of the public. Lynda Birke, a sociologist of science at Warwick University, reports that the 43 scientists she interviewed - from senior figures to people just beginning their research for a PhD, as well as technicians - have a wide range of reservations about animal research.
Arnold Arluke of Northeastern University in Boston, Massachusetts, found that a significant number of researchers were reluctant to describe their experiments in conversations outside work. About a quarter of the scientists reported having nightmares when they first started using animals.
Recent studies of the animal welfare movement in the United States reveal that the caricature of the animal activist is equally wrong. Activists tend to be female, aged between 20 and 40, well educated (as measured by the proportion with a university education), well off, in white-collar jobs, and very active politically. However, according to Animals Agenda, the movement's magazine in the US, anti-vivisectionists do follow one stereotype. A poll of a thousand readers revealed that they had almost five times as many pets or 'companion animals' as the average citizen.
But there is no evidence for the view that they are particularly misanthropic. They may be devoted to the environment, but they also show a higher-than-average level of commitment to human causes, supporting the women's movement, civil rights and anti-apartheid. Neither do they appear to be simply anti-science, though they do seem more ambivalent than the average citizen about weighing the benefits of science and technology against the risks.
Why then, do the caricatures persist? In part, it is because the debate has been so strongly polarised for so long (more than a hundred years). These images have become strongly entrenched and almost comforting in their starkness. If one's opponents are so vile or emotional, then there really is no point engaging them in rational dialogue.
Beyond the appeals to side with innocent animals (the helpless 'innocence' of laboratory animals is an important factor in eliciting public support) or sick children, what are the facts about animal use in research? Tens of millions of animals, mostly rodents and rabbits, die every year in European and American laboratories. A significant proportion of these, perhaps 25-30 per cent, experience distress and suffering as a result of the research. None the less, laboratory animals do enjoy better housing and husbandry conditions than the billions of farm animals that are killed annually for meat.
Is all this animal research useless, as some in the animal movement contend? There are no unequivocal answers, although there are numerous examples of research that has led to significant medical advances, based, at least in part, on animal studies. Antibiotics were developed with the help of several important animal studies. The polio vaccine was made possible by the discovery that the virus could be grown in human cell culture (an alternative to the use of animals) but animal research and testing played a crucial role both before and after the vaccine became a reality. Other advances in public health may not have come directly from animal research, but findings from animal research (for example, the identification of important pathogens) were important in supporting and furthering public health initiatives.
The scientific establishment has, at times, claimed too much credit for animal research. But the dissimilarities between animals and humans, often quoted by opponents of animal research, do not necessarily invalidate the results. In fact, the differences between animals and humans, like the differences between individual humans, have provided important clues to various biological phenomena and diseases.
The moral questions raised by animal research admit no easy answers. The deliberate killing and inflicting of distress on healthy animals should be avoided; all the scientists I have spoken to state that they would not use animals in research if they felt there were other equally suitable techniques available. In other words, scientists and anti-vivisectionists share the same goal - the elimination of laboratory animal use.
Where they differ is in the emphasis each places on that goal. Most scientists are, not surprisingly, more concerned with solving their research problems than on finding alternatives to animals. Nor is there agreement on a realistic timetable for achieving the goal. Activists want animal research stopped immediately or in the next few decades. Most scientists argue that even if it does prove possible, it will take centuries to replace animal experiments.
If both sides could at least agree that they share the same ultimate goal, the senseless and inaccurate rhetoric would disappear, to be replaced by a debate about how much effort should be put into the search for alternatives.

The posho mill (used to grind Maize into flour), funded by this project, has now been operating on a daily basis since May 2011. GVI volunteers and staff have been teaching the The Mahandikini Network for Animal Rights how to keep and analyse operational and financial records. This is to insure the group maximise their profits and maintain good accounting standards and transparency in their books.
Lately the Mahandikini group have been focusing on building up a larger client base. At the moment their profit margin is high but the number of customers is low. This is in part, due to the current high cost of Maize in the area. They have started to advertise the Mill and Grainstore by placing signage on the road from Taveta to Nairobi which passes the Mill and also using the members to spread the word through local churches and other community groups.

Midwest Grain Quality
RCED-94-66R: Published: Nov 1, 1993. Publicly Released: Nov 1, 1993.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed damages to the current year's small grain crop, focusing on whether: (1) market conditions justify significant discounts in grain prices; (2) large grain companies use a systematic discount system for low-quality grain; and (3) large grain buyers blend low-quality grain with high-quality grain and then resell it at normal market prices. GAO found that: (1) buyers' uncertainty concerning grain quality and supply and the level of vomitoxin in grain products have contributed to the increase of discounts for low-quality or damaged grain and premium prices for high-quality grain; (2) most grain buyers have a systematic process for setting discounts and premiums for grain products; (3) buyers frequently blend low-quality grain with high-quality grain to create a uniform product that meets market standards; and (4) ongoing and planned research efforts should provide information on price distortions caused by large grain buyers' market power.

Horses tongue
I noticed my horse was backing way off the bit on Monday in the arena. Just thinking this is another one of her curve balls, I didn't put much thought into it other than I'd have to work on my forward.
I came out to see her today and noticed her tongue was a dark color. I thought maybe she had gotten into something that died her tongue (no matter how odd) since she seemed perky and took the bit just fine...she also accepted treats fine and hand grazed without a problem. But then I grew more concerned and took some pictures for an opinion.
Now that I'm home and have reviewed the pictures, I'm starting to think something might be seriously wrong. I'm thinking of going back out.
Here are 3 pictures from today. After reviewing one if them, it looks like something might be wrapped around her tongue?! Please comment. Pictures in the next post.

I wonder if eating lots of dandelions would do that?
** hard to see - the picture is showing too small **
There aren't any dandelions in the pasture. There are loads of buttercups though.

Ok... I will try to upload them to my Facebook account to get bigger pictures

Sutherland Institute calls for changes in State School Board selection
(Deseret News) A perennial question in Utah public education is how to best fill the seats of the State School Board.
While there is wide agreement that the current system needs to be changed, determining exactly what type of system should take its place continues to be a point of division among lawmakers, educators, activists and potential candidates.
But in a new paper, the Sutherland Institute, a conservative public policy think tank, recommends that in order to maintain the public trust, Utah needs to move toward direct partisan elections for school board members.

Office Organizer
Our document management tips and inventory management ideas will he you become a more effective office organizer
With our help, file organizing and file management will be easier than ever. The office filing techniques provided by Business Management Daily will get you organized – and get you noticed.
How do you make sure a task gets done? Peter Bregman, author of 18 Minutes, believes we ought to make appointments with ourselves in order to accomplish things. "We should all be working off our calendars, not our task lists," says Bregman.
Sorting through files can seem like an archeological dig. Every time someone new comes in, that person doesn't understand the previous system and builds a new set of files—electronic and paper—on top.
Jasmine Freeman's job as chief executive assistant to Joan Burge at Office Dynamics keeps her busy supporting Burge's day-to-day work and developing social media to support the business. A number of tools help her "keep on top of things":
Rosalene Glickman, president of the World Academy for Personal Development, often asks her clients if they made a New Year's resolution and stuck with it. Out of the more than 3,000 people, only 6% said yes. Advice from the experts in making this year's resolutions stick:
Make your email more readable by crafting enticing subject lines ... Why wait for an annual review to get feedback? Ask for one-minute feedback at every opportunity ... Knock out more of your critical to-dos by whittling down your to-do list each day ... Go ahead: Ask for a $100,000 salary ...
Entrepreneurship isn't just about making money or starting a business. It also means having a passion for doing something you love: devising a new procedure, planning a meeting, creating a more organized back office. Take this quiz to assess whether you have an entrepreneurial spirit:
A comprehensive document management system can help your business boost productivity, improve the bottom line and stay out of legal trouble. Here are three ways to organize files for easy retrieval, establish a record retention schedule and tame your wild email inbox.
It's possible to have a messy desk and still know which pile holds what. But it's definitely more difficult to think clearly if you're surrounded by clutter. Here's how to clear the deck:
Whether your workplace employs scheduling software, day planners for everyone or no formal calendar management at all, a few visual reminders can keep everyone running on time.
Scroll down a web site one screenful at a time ... Keep emotions in check at work with DING ... Let social media help you network before a conference ... Save people time by telling them how to skip the voice-mail instructions when they call your cell phone.

[CD Review] Department of Eagles, 'In Ear Park' (4AD)
Before you go calling Department of Eagles a Grizzly Bear spin-off—the bands share three of four members—keep in mind that Fred Nicolaus and Daniel Rossen's dorm-room collaborations and 2003 debut, The Cold Nose, preceded Rossen joining Grizzly Bear by several years. With that said, In Ear Park's title track feels instantly familiar, what with its cosmic shimmer, whispery background choir and pedal-treated quivering of instrumentation. It's more swaggering and less submerged than Grizzly Bear often is, though, and the following "No One Does It Like You" is a crackling slice of psychedelic doo-wop.
Grizzly Bear player/producer Chris Taylor assists in the album's many Eno-isms, ensuring that each bizarre sound feels organically hatched and perfectly placed. Nicolaus lends his wavering lead vocals on the already surreal "Teenagers," slippery twang sneaks into "Around the Bay," and "Herring Bone" brings angelic atmosphere to a song as slow yet indelible as Grizzly Bear's brilliant "Knife." "Classical Records" is funny and more than a little sad—"Do you listen to your classical records anymore? Or do you let them sleep in their sleeves where they weep?"—and nods to the unforgiving drift of time.
That's echoed elsewhere, too; Rossen dedicated the album to his father, who passed away last year. But In Ear Park is too gorgeous and adventurous to make us hang our heads for long. Around every corner lurks some glowing sonic detail or sublime turn of phrase that doles out goose bumps just the way Grizzly Bear does. It may not be the same band—Ed Droste, absent here, named and founded Grizzly Bear—but Department of Eagles prove to be a rewarding complement and impressive equal.

Walking With Spirits
Complete the mission "Walking With Spirits". Mission can only be done after "The Local Flavor" mission, and will be received upon completing said mission. When you arrive at the base of the Tribals (the Cathedral), they will ask you to go into the Sacred Bog (far west) and get seeds from the big Punga fruit in the Grotto. This is your Rite of Passage to gain entrance to the Tribals. Upon arriving in the bog, you will have to follow the river and rocks towards the giant Punga fruit, all whilst fighting various Mirelurks. After activating the Punga, travel back through the bog, amongst a bunch of weird goings-on. You reach the end when you meet a man standing by the bomb that's in the middle of Megaton. You then regain consciousness and have to trek your way back to the Cathedral.

... metres we just putted along at 20-30 km/hr and stopped at most beaches for a wander and photos. Unlike the previous day it was overcast and ideal conditions to explore the island. We cruised back to our bungalow, parking the scooter right outside. I face timed home while Ashlee got her hair braided which she was excited about and had been looking to do in Cambodia. I hadn't taken a shower today so set off for a swim in the sea and floated ...

I got back to sleep until I was awake again around 2AM and looked around my room and suddenly realised the lights were on.... huh? A bit more investigation and I discovered that the power had gone off - no power, but there were lights - must be some sort of emergency system. Anyhow the power came back on and all was fine. No more disturbances after that.....

I love the children I teach, and I love the school and its proximity to the ocean, and I love swimming in the Gulf of Thailand every day, but I do not like official policies that change for each individual, and penalize some of us on an official's simple whim. And I am lonely on weekends. But that is another story.

The manager depending on his expectations of interest rates would change the maturity of bonds (short term/long term etc) to try to get the best returns from bond investments. So in such mutual funds the investor is not expected to speculate

Mutual Funds:
Additional Disclosures Could Increase Transparency of Fees and Other Practices
GAO-04-317T: Published: Jan 27, 2004. Publicly Released: Jan 27, 2004.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-8678
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Concerns have been raised over whether the disclosures of mutual fund fees and other fund practices are sufficiently fair and transparent to investors. Our June 2003 report, Mutual Funds: Greater Transparency Needed in Disclosures to Investors, GAO-03- 763, reviewed (1) how mutual funds disclose their fees and related trading costs and options for improving these disclosures, (2) changes in how mutual funds pay for the sale of fund shares and how the changes in these practices are affecting investors, and (3) the benefits of and the concerns over mutual funds' use of soft dollars. This testimony summarizes the results of our report and discusses certain events that have occurred since it was issued.
Although mutual funds disclose considerable information about their costs to investors, the amount of fees and expenses that each investor specifically pays on their mutual fund shares are currently disclosed as percentages of fund assets, whereas most other financial services disclose the actual costs to the purchaser in dollar terms. SEC staff has proposed requiring funds to disclose additional information that could be used to compare fees across funds. However, SEC is not proposing that funds disclose the specific dollar amount of fees paid by each investor nor is it proposing to require that any fee disclosures be made in the account statements that investors receive. Although some of these additional disclosures could be costly and data on their benefits to investors was not generally available, less costly alternatives exist that could increase the transparency and investor awareness of mutual funds fees, making consideration of additional fee disclosures worthwhile. Changes in how mutual funds pay intermediaries to sell fund shares have benefited investors but have also raised concerns. Since 1980, mutual funds, under SEC Rule 12b-1, have been allowed to use fund assets to pay for certain marketing expenses. Over time the use of these fees has evolved to provide investors greater flexibility in choosing how to pay for the services of individual financial professionals that advise them on fund purchases. Another increasingly common marketing practice called revenue sharing involves fund investment advisers making additional payments to the broker-dealers that distribute their funds' shares. However, these payments may cause the broker-dealers receiving them to limit the fund choices they offer to investors and conflict with their obligation to recommend the most suitable funds. Regulators acknowledged that the current disclosure regulations might not always result in complete information about these payments being disclosed to investors. Under soft dollar arrangements, mutual fund investment advisers use part of the brokerage commissions they pay to broker-dealers for executing trades to obtain research and other services. Although industry participants said that soft dollars allow fund advisers access to a wider range of research than may otherwise be available and provide other benefits, these arrangements also can create incentives for investment advisers to trade excessively to obtain more soft dollar services, thereby increasing fund shareholders' costs. SEC staff has recommended various changes that would increase transparency by expanding advisers' disclosure of their use of soft dollars. By acting on the staff's recommendations SEC would provide fund investors and directors with needed information about how their funds' advisers are using soft dollars.

This review is from: ASUS Radeon HD 6770 DirectX 11 EAH6770 DC/2DI/1GD5 1GB 128-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 HDCP Ready Video Card
Pros: the price is right for a low budget pc build, I bought this model because I was trying to save a few bucks on my first PC build and it has been going strong for over a year now. Plays my games I want, Skyrim, Fallout, Mass Effect, but I cant really go to the highest settings sometimes.
Cons: Dizamn is this thing huge, I had a horrible time trying to make room in my pc case. Other than that, the only bad thing I can say is I have trouble going all the way up to the highest game settings but I knew that going in! Its been reliable, I'd recommend it if you are on a budget or are doing this for the 1st time to build a pc.
Also, the software that comes with it isnt that great so you may want to look into other software to manage the temperature and fan of the card.
Other Thoughts: The software it comes with isnt that great, find other temperature regulating software.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: NZXT GAMMA Classic Series GAMA-001BK Black Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
Pros: price was awesome, tons of room for your drives and it comes with secure hard drive brackets. that was especially great since I had a smaller SSD drive I needed to bolt down.
Cons: Its a little light weight so working with it was kinda flimsy. only reason for 4 eggs and not 5 is the fact its not just a little more sturdy and one of the drive brackets fell apart but there were a ton inside so no biggie.
Other Thoughts: Got this for a custom build really happy with it, came with tons of screws etc and the price is awesome for its category.READ FULL REVIEW
This review is from: Nikon CoolPix S210 Plum 8.0 MP 3X Optical Zoom Digital Camera

Cons: none so far

Using technology to make your life easier!
25 Jun
I know everyone probably has some sort of Google account and if you don't you have probably have heard about it. But I wanted to make sure that I wrote something about it because it is one of those fundamental online tools that you must tap into and I didn't want to take it for granted, that and there are so many tools that people haven't tapped into that add so much to the experience.
Google pretty much owns my life and there is a good reason for that. It's easy, free, integrated and unified. On top of it I can gather all the Google tools that I use onto one page, my Google Homepage . This is where I have my Gmail, Google Docs, Google Calendar, Google Reader, and many other tools that aren't even Google tools like the weather, or alternative search engines.
So how do you get a google Homepage? If you have a Gmail account then you already have access to the Google Homepage and ALL of the tools I have listed here and MORE you simply need to login with your Gmail account to access it and it is all FREE!
Let me elaborate on some of the tools that Google offers:
The best part of it all is that it all exists online (but you can have it run off your desktop too if you want) and is accessible from any computer in the world that have computer access.
How can I use this for education?
So what do /would you use the Google products for?

Everyone knows that social networks like Facebook are really popular with college age students but there are many other web 2.0 apps that can add to a students experience at college. Here is an article from Mashable that describes 10 of these applications. Enjoy.
14 Apr
The following is a cross post from learn.lethbridecollege.net and it is being re-posted to the easierway site because this clearly represents an easier or more effective way to learn history, civics and current events and should be considered a glimpse of what the future of learning may hold.
iCue > Welcome! via kwout
iCue, which stands for "Immerse", "Connect", "Understand", and "Excel", is a free, online, collaborative learning environment for students and lifelong learners ages 13 and up that includes discussion forums, games and activities, and hundreds of current and historic videos from NBC News.
iCue was originally designed with Advanced Placement students in mind by NBC and the MIT Education Arcade who are conducting research study to find out how iCue can help students learn. Originally designed with Advanced Placement students in mind, students in high school through college and lifelong learners of all ages will enjoy watching the NBC videos, playing the games, joining discussion forums and trading Cue Cards while they learn.
The system can be used by a wide assortment of learners at many levels but does offer the following courses as a starting point:
9 Apr
True Knowledge via kwout
True Knowledge is a "question answering" search engine. You ask a question the way you do to any other person and it will give you an answer and the results (webpages) from which it drew that conclusion. So if you type in "How tall is the Eiffel tower?" I get a simple answer of "324 meters" I also get the specific article it got that information from, a list of other webpages that are relevant to the search and also an option as to if I agree or disagree with the answer.
True Knowledge is still in beta (like the other 2 I reviewed) so not everything has an answer and on top of that you still need to sign up to be able to use it something that can take days before your account can be set up. That is not very good when you are just wanting to do a simple search. If you are very interested in this concept and feel you want to contribute you sure can add to the knowledge base.
How can you use True knowledge in education?
Really because it is in beta, and has been for over a year, it really isn't suitable to use in education but is definitely one to watch out for and should be followed.
So who is the winner of this throwdown? My choice as best search engine alternative is Hakai, and for these reasons:
This isn't to say that the other search engines are not good, they are good but I just prefer Hakia at this point.
8 Apr
Hakai is a self proclaimed semantic search engine that spits out results based on web sites that are suggested by librarians. Because most search engines bring search results based on popular websites the results may not be credible but Hakai is trying to change that.
Most search engines bring popular results based on what statistical ranking algorithms, the problem with this is that the popular results are not always credible. Enter Hakai, the self proclaimed semantic search engine that brings quality results based on 3 criteria:
Hakai takes it a step further by allowing you to compare (http://club.hakia.com/challenge/default2.aspx?q=is+sleep+deprivation+dangerous?) your search to Google, Yahoo and MSN to see how effective it is as well letting you see if you find the search to be as effective as they say.
No sign up required, no commitment of any kind is needed to use this tools so feel free to try it risk free.
So how can this tool be used in education.
- If you are tired of Wikipedia, Google and the like then you can test drive Hakai and it's librarian approved search result out and perhaps only allow your students to use it when doing research.
- It is another search engine option for yourself or anyone for that matter.
- Use it to show your students how different search engines can offer different results, thus it becomes a teaching tool to demonstrate why extra research is usually needed.
How would you use Hakai?

About the only limiting factor to Google Apps/Docs for collaboration on documents is that one still needs to have a Google account to access and collaborate on a document, spreadsheet or presentation. If your intended users/audience are not comfortable with creating a Google account or just do not want to, but you still need to collaborate on a document then Etherpad is the best way to go.
You don't need an account to start and Etherpad and anyone who you send or give the document URL to can start editing the document in real time. Users can identify their edits by color and name so it is very easy to see who has written what.
Educational Applications:
26 Mar
Likely we have all at one point or another used voice chat over the computer. Sometimes it can be difficult and sometimes fairly easy. Most of the time it requires downloading an application and on rare occasions it will exist on the net but still requires sign-up.
Enter Voxli, an online voice chat application that doesn't require any sign-up or registration and allows up to 200 people to chat at once. To set it up you simply go to their main website and complete a url of your own choosing. Send that url to whomever you want to chat with. It will prompt you to install a plug-in for Firefox and that is it. Extremely simple. The interface is very minimal and will take only seconds to figure out how it works.
I have never ran across a voice chat application that is this easy to use let alone with good quality audio and the ability to "push" your chat outside of your browser to various other devices like video game systems.
Although it doesn't offer anything new to the arena of voice chat it does make the whole process much easier for admin and end users and that is the kind of power I gravitate to.
How can Voxli be used in Education?
How would/do you use it in your course?

In the Meebo, Adium, and Pidgin three communication tools with strange names post Tyler pointed to the three top instant Message (IM) aggregators, Meebo, Adium and Pidgin and also explained how these tools could enhance the learning environment.
While I have yet to find a web-based tool that works as good as Meebo, I have made the move from Adium to Pidgin as my primary application based IM aggregator for the following reasons:
Educational uses:
24 Mar
In the Can You Diigo it? post Tyler offered a plethora of reason why one should use Diigo and also offered several educational uses for this excellent social bookmarking tool. I would like to further enhance Tyler's post by pointing to 3 powerful Diigo tools that can be added directly to your browser that make it very simple to add and access Diigo bookmarks.
Post to Diigo is a button you add to your bookmarks toolbar by simply dragging and dropping. It allows you to bookmark the page you are on by simply clicking the button. Once you add the description, tags, privacy setting you just click the Add New Bookmark button and your bookmark is saved and Diigo then returns you to the page you were originally on.
Diigolet is very similar to the Post to Diigo Button in that it can be set-up by simple drag-and-drop – no download or installation needed, and it works for all major browsers. In addition to simple bookmarking it also allows you to highlight and add sticky-notes.
The Diigo Toolbar is a power tool that can enhance your online browsing and interaction experiences by providing a full sidebar listing of your bookmarks, URLs and friends. It also provides a full featured toolbar that gives you the ability to bookmark, highlight, send, read later and view recent and unread bookmarks as well as enabling advanced searching and filtering. Despite all the power and control the toolbar is very easy to install, configure and use
Post to Diigo, Digolet and the Diigo Toolbar are just the first 3 tools listed on the Diigo Tools page so we are really still just scratching the surface when it comes to using Diigo.
P.S. from Tyler
When I first started using Diigo these tools that Dwayne has mentioned were invaluable, but I always disliked how much room it took up in my taskbar. For many this may not be a problem but I have many other tools that I use in my task bar as well. I happened upon a solution (by accident) to this though, I discovered that right clicking on a page you wish to bookmark, text that you wish to highlight, or both at the same time would bring up a context sensitive menu allowing almost all of the functionality right at your fingertips without having to have the other tools in the toolbar (Diigo still needs to be installed as a plugin however). I find that this solution is faster and more convenient than using the Diigolet and Diigo button. Below I attached some screenshots of the context sensitive menus.

VoiceThread is an interactive environment that facilitates collaboration on creating dynamic slideshows by allowing users to post comments, which are publicly viewable if needed, in a variety of formats including text, audio and video all delivered from either a computer or phone. In addition to this it allows viewers to comment by drawing pictures directly on the slides.
Although that is a fairly good shot at describing VoiceThread they do a much better job of it by showing what it can do which you can see here.( http://voicethread.com/#q.b409.i848804 and here http://voicethread.com/about/).
My description of VoiceThread is drastically condensed but it is a good base. When you watch a VoiceThread you are faced with a slide and pictures all along the sides, these pictures are the comments that people have left in either text, audio or video, a timeline plays along the bottom and is segmented for each person who left a comment. If you want you can skip all the comments and go to the next slide by clicking the large arrow on the bottom right.
So how could you use VoiceThread in Education? Well this is one of those tools that could be used for so many different purposes that I won't touch on even a fraction of what can be done but I will try so here we go:
If you are interested in more I suggest you go to VoiceThread and browse ( http://voicethread.com/#q ) some of the ones that have already been created. Many of them are very creatively using the tool to fill gaps and really engage students in an open and non-threatening dialog.
One downside to VoiceThread is that for a student to use it they do need to have an account and although it is free it is another step they will need to go through to be able to use it.

Guided Trips
Fishing has been good lately, both in the Smokies and on the tailwaters. I have been privileged to spend time on both tailwaters and in the Smokies recently. Up in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, a few bugs are showing up with the warm weather we've been experiencing. With temperatures supposed to be cooling again this week, I don't expect huge hatches. That said, blue quills, early brown stoneflies, little black stoneflies, and probably some little black caddis should be trickling off. This will be especially true when we get a string of warm days. Quill gordon mayflies are not far behind now with the warm winter we've had.
On the tailwaters, the fishing has been mostly good. The Caney Fork is fishing well on streamer floats. Some high water nymphing is picking up a few fish as well. Several people have taken advantage of my special February tailwater trip to book streamer floats. If you haven't a clue what I'm talking about, sign up for my newsletter so you can stay informed about specials on guide trips and other things.
Now is the time to start thinking about spring fishing. The bookings are rolling in for float trips on the Caney Fork. Spring hatch trips in the Smokies will book quickly as well so contact me soon if you want to get out in 2017!

Okay. So I went to the tourist trap again the morning and got three new

text: Control another computer with ShowMyPC.comKyle Pott7/12/07 9:01pmFiled to: Remote ComputingSSHVncWindowsWindows VistaWindows XP35EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink ShowMyPC.com does remote desktop control with an open-source attitude. By wrapping VNC, SSH, and plink into two free stand-alone executables, controlling another computer remotely is a cinch. Advertisement One executable is called "Show My PC to Remote User" and the other is called "View a Remote PC." When the user launches Show My PC to Remote User, a password is automatically generated. The Remote user just has to enter this password and they are connected. The two applications make use of ShowMyPC.com's SSH servers to connect securely. Instead of turning Mom's computer into a VNC server next time she needs help, send her to ShowMyPC.com and you'll be connected in no time. Thanks, Zach!ShowMyPC.comReply35 repliesLeave a reply
