Cancer rehab has given me my life back. I am no longer afraid to speak with others or give a speech to a room full of people. I still use many of the things I learned from speech therapy and they help me in some way almost every single day.

There are so many rooms and pieces of furniture, but I'm drawn to the couch as if by muscle memory.

Here's a newsflash: they don't give you a medal for going through childbirth without any drugs and they don't give you a medal when you finish chemo or any type of cancer treatment. There are no medals for "being brave." What does that mean anyway?
There are many times when I am so happy! Many, many people say they'd never know that I was sick. But right now, living feels like so much work. And the wait to get better keeps getting longer and longer.
Like every other teenager of the '90s, Hillary Clinton defined what every woman in our lives either was or strived to be. It's no surprise that she's so popular now -- but for me, I hold the very special distinction of saying that Hillary Clinton got me through chemotherapy.
If the logistics of preparing for chemo weren't enough, you also have to deal with other people. There's a strange indigenous dance people do... it's a frown-face-hug dance. Have you heard Gangnam style? Do those dances instead.
If the professional association that sets standards for oncologists doesn't seem to concern itself with timely disclosures, is it any wonder that clinicians in their hospital and community practices dismiss their patients' concerns as frivolous?

I cannot believe that the plug is the cause of the brightness and lack of bass, or any other sonic differences apart from microphonics coming from wiggling the plug. Also, i'ts only the outside that is plated, the rest of the plug is "ordinary" metal. Amping and lack of burn-in sound more likely.
It could also be your ears/gray mass that need to adjust to a "new" sound.
Possibly, going to listen to them for the next few hours, but honestly, I think a more powerful amp might do these more justice (the SR-71A still does a blinding job with every other headphone and IEM I own). I can't wait for the Continental to arrive. Yes it's still a portable, but I've heard it packs a much greater punch than most portables, including the Rx MkII.

This pup-tastic music video was directed by Jess Rona, who's pretty well known for her slow motion dog grooming videos on Instagram.
It may not look like it, but it's the dogs that are the heroes of this video...trust me!
What exactly is going on here, none can tell. This musical-comedy group just dropped their latest video, and if you can watch it without your brain melting let us know!
A day in the life of a pretty cool cat, set to the footage of Superchunk's "Crossed Wires" music video by Whitey McConnaughy and the 1997 hit single "Smack My B*tch Up" by Prodigy.
Editor's Note: This song contains mild language.

Here is yet another effort to help keep our rivers clean, or at least, be able to monitor the kind of pollution level that our ailing rivers are experiencing. We're talking about researchers at the Michigan State University who managed to develop robotic fish which are 100% waterproof, being able to swim in schools while navigate through the current in order to keep a keen (robotic) eye on pollution in lakes, rivers, streams, and oceans.
Once again, mankind draws inspiration from nature, as MSU associate professor and electrical engineer Dr. Xiaobo Tan said that "fish behave in a way that underwater vehicles can't yet equal." Being able to swim in schools, around each other as well as being supremely agile in a way that a submarine is not capable of made robotic fish a no-brainer.
Tail fins made of electroactive polymers will move in response to electricity to propel the fish through the waters, and with the right kind of sensors fitted in, we will soon be able to have far more vigilant underwater pollution "police" to do the job – while blending in with the rest of the environment, of course. Hopefully no actual fish mistakes it for food though…

Islands that sport volcanoes often have black sand beaches. The black coloration usually occurs over time as the wind and water break up the volcanic lava into light particles that form sand. An exception -- Hawaii's Punalu'u Black Sand Beach -- occurred rapidly when the hot lava clashed with the cold sea water. The lava quickly crumbled up to create sand. Famous for their black sand beaches, the islands of Iceland, Hawaii and Maui attract tourists each year to view the impressive sand coloration.
Iceland's Vik Beach
Located 110 miles from the town of Reykjavik, Iceland's remote Vik beach draws visitors who want to enjoy the striking scenery. The chilly and often wet weather make beach lounging less than desirable, but the sheer beauty of the area will captivate. The beach consists of a combination of black sand, large rocks and boulders. The black color showcases the deep blue of the water. Offshore, basalt boulders rise from the water, drawing the eyes to the horizon.
Black sand beaches in Hawaii consist of Pololu Valley Beach, Kaimu Beach, Punalu'u Beach and Kehena Beach. Not easily accessible, Pololu Valley Beach requires a hike of approximately 400 feet. The waters along the beach can get treacherous due to high waves and strong currents. Visitors should refrain from swimming or snorkeling. Kehena Beach often attracts exhibitionists who abandon their clothes. The coves along the shoreline are a favorite hangout for dolphins. Kaimu Beach offers compelling scenery, but the area has strong currents, so visitors should abstain from swimming. Swimmers and snorkelers can enjoy the black sandy expanse of Punalu'u beach and also catch glimpses of sea turtles.
Maui's Oneuli Beach rarely draws large crowds, but visitors can enjoy lounging, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking and hiking. The smooth black expanse of sand can become extremely hot from the sun, so do not forget to bring a pair of shoes. Honokalani Black Sand Beach will appeal to the explorer with a wide range of cliffs and lava caves. The beach, comprised of small black pebbles, is also a safe place to wade out into the water and snorkel or swim. Visit Waianapanapa Beach during the summer months when the surf is low. The area around the beach has sea caves, rock formations and remnants of the King's Highway.
Changes and Protection
Black sand beaches arise from natural causes. Some take thousands of years to develop and others are created immediately. Black sand beaches can also disappear. Hawaii's Kamoamoa Beach once drew a wealth of visitors, but now it is gone. A lava flow has engulfed the beach. When visiting black sand beaches, always try to protect the area by not disturbing the natural formations. In Hawaii and Maui, it is illegal to collect vials of the black sand.

Mohandas K. Gandhi, called Mahatma ("great soul"), was the father of modern India, but his influence has spread well beyond the subcontinent and is as important today as it was in the first part of the twentieth century and during this nation's own civil rights movement. Taken from Gandhi's writings throughout his life, The Essential Gandhi introduces us to his thoughts on politics, spirituality, poverty, suffering, love, non-violence, civil disobedience, and his own life. The pieces collected here, with explanatory head notes by Gandhi biographer Louis Fischer, offer the clearest, most thorough portrait of one of the greatest spiritual leaders the world has known."Gandhi was inevitable. If humanity is to progress, Gandhi is inescapable. . . . We may ignore him at our own risk." –Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.With a new Preface drawn from the writings of Eknath EaswaranIn the annals of spirituality certain books stand out both for their historical importance and for their continued relevance. The Vintage Spiritual Classics series offers the greatest of these works in authoritative new editions, with specially commissioned essays by noted contemporary commentators. Filled with eloquence and fresh insight, encouragement and solace, Vintage Spiritual Classics are incomparable resources for all readers who seek a more substantive understanding of mankind's relation to the divine.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.31 / 5.00 5,567 Views(update 8/24/07) Hey all. Check my userpage from time to time in the following months to see progress on SAMV. I will most likely do an update tonight. Thanks for all your support, stay cool.
Hello everyone, and thanks for looking at Shame by the Slice 2! I'm proud of how this turned out, and I hope you all enjoy it.
***I respond to all reviews. Even if it gets 1000 reviews, I will respond to them all.***
Thanks to everyone who reviewed part 1! I got a lot of great feedback, and a lot of it I really found useful. I tightened up the timing, made some subtle changes and added a playhead and scene select to this feature. Things my other toons could have really used.
Thanks, of course, to all my friends and family who kept me working on this. And to Newgrounds!
So, enjoy this chunk of my life while I go fetch a beer.
I had originally planned to have a lot more easter eggs, but I literally ran out of frames. Scenes just froze up. Oh well, I'll have to make a blooper reel or something.
THREE ENDINGS!!! Admittedly, they are a little similar.
The original file was so complex that I could not export a .swf file as my computer ran out of RAM. I had to pare down the library until I could get it to compile.
Just funny
Dude that was halarious i laughed so hard i almosed PEEE PEEEEEE
keep it up and i love ur work
im glad you made a new one. It was just as good as the first. Ill be waiting for some new flashes if u plan on making them.
Glad you liked it bro. Yeah, plan on seeing a lot more from me in the near future. I'm on track to release 2-3 more by year's end. Thanks!
haha better than the first one "You better be on some strong birth control pills" :P
i think YOU are on some pretty strong birth control pills to think of that.
I like
I like your visual style, not just on this series, but S.A.M.V., too. I thought it was funny. I like the fact that your flash isn't over the top or too cartoony.
Thanks man, I always try to be a little realistic. Very, very little =P

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.32 / 5.00 6,179 ViewsThis is my semester project that I just finished for my university drawing class. This time around I decided to use a lot more frame by frame work and less tweening.
The whole thing is a little crazy, and the concert sequence at the end is making fun of all my teachers, so it won't really be as funny to you as it is to me. Also I had to pull an all nighter just to turn it in on time, so it's a bit rushed. whatever, enjoy suckers.
I loved it
So wacky and original, and I flipped hearing one of my favorite Queen songs redone in this. It sounded awesome. :D
Did I just see a dolphin eat a kitten?! The dancing bear was awesome!
woh hoooo
now that was a great piece of work, and to think it was made for your class, even thoo the ending as u said isnt as funny to me as it probably is to u, it wasnt too bad still, but the beginning was great, jesus sure is a good carpenter, and the see what the world would be like if you never existed sequence was great too, good job on the flash and keep it up!

Your old family friend, |
Dear Tommy, My sister and I want you and your family know how much we miss you. Even though she was younger than us, you would let her tag along and have fun with everyone. The last time I saw you was in Fort Benning, Georgia. You were on you way to Viet Nam. We never said good-bye but just "See you soon". So until we see you again, Thank You for what you did for our country, our family and my grand-kids.

Review various resources provided by the facilitator, deciding whether or not they are current, accurate and culturally viable using summary sheet 2. Divide into groups and discuss guidelines for evaluating Internet resources and the issues particular to using Internet resources. Activity: Evaluating Classroom Resources
1.Brainstorm different FNMI resources that can be found in your local community (e.g., Elders, social groups, artists, musicians, writers/poets, artefacts, field trips). 2.Divide into groups and discuss ways that these resources could be used to teach objectives in various subjects. Remember the value of using local FNMI resources (reflect the cultural background of the community, promotes cultural identity, builds relationships). Activity: Accessing FNMI Community Resources
Brainstorm topics that you would like to know more about and training that would help you use appropriate tools and strategies for teaching FNMI students. For example: Differentiated instructional strategies Preferred learning styles of FNMI students Discuss ways that you could inform yourselves on these topics (e.g., guest speakers, readings/research, workshops) Activity: Professional Development
1.Read pages 113 and 114 (Theme 4) of "In Their Own Voices" and discuss in groups what you have learned about the importance of infusing the curriculum with FNMI content. 2.Listen to several examples from Shared Learning of integrating FNMI culture and knowledge into a curriculum. Discuss the examples and how they would use them in the classroom. 3.Divide into groups and each group selects a curriculum outcome from various subjects and comes up with at least three different ways to use FNMI content when addressing the outcomes. Groups then share their ideas with the others. Activity: Infusing the Curriculum
Talking Circles Talking circles are useful when the topic under consideration has no right or wrong answer, or when people need to share feelings. The purpose of talking circles is not to reach a decision or consensus. Rather, it is to create a safe environment for students to share their points of view with others. This process helps students: gain trust in their classmates come to believe that what they say will be heard and accepted without criticism gain an empathetic appreciation for other points of view
Talking Circles (continued) Talking Circles Guidelines: All comments, negative or positive, should address the question or issue, not comments that another participant has made. Only one person speaks at a time. Everyone else listens in a non- judgemental way to the speaker. Go around the circle systematically or pass an object, such as a feather, from speaker to speaker. Silence is an acceptable response. No one should be pressured at any time to contribute. Everyone must feel invited to participate. It is often more effective to hold talking circles in small groups. Students should avoid comments that put down others or themselves, such as "I don't think anyone will agree with me, but …". Words like "good" or "excellent" are also forms of judgement.
Portfolios Portfolios are a chance for students to gather, organize and illustrate examples of their learning and accomplishments. Purposes documenting activities and accomplishments over an extended period of time monitoring and adjusting actions and plans communicating learning with others expressing and celebrating creative accomplishments providing a foundation by which to assess personal growth and skill development, and to set future goals.
Portfolios develop students' organizational skills and increase their sense of responsibility and ownership in their work. Students are encouraged to produce their best work, value their own progress and select products for their portfolio that represent what they are learning. Benefits allows teachers to see students' thinking gives students a format and motivation for completing assignments is helpful in assessing and communicating student learning allow students a measure of autonomy and self-expression that can be highly motivating Portfolios
Service Learning Service learning is a goal-setting and action process that positively affects others. Service learning provides benefits such as: strengthening academic knowledge and skills by applying them to real problems building positive relationships with a variety of people getting to know people from different backgrounds discovering new interests and abilities setting goals and working through steps to achieve them working cooperatively taking on leadership roles learning the value of helping and caring for others.
Service Learning (continued) For teachers, benefits include: having meaningful, close involvement with students reaching students who have difficulty with standard curriculum establishing home/school/community partnerships helping the school become more visible in the community promoting school spirit and pride building collegiality with other school staff.
For the school and community, benefits include: increased connectedness between students, their schools and their communities improved school climate as students work together in positive ways more positive view of young people by the community, leading to stronger support for youth and schools greater awareness of community needs and concerns increased community mobilization to address key issues. Service Learning (continued)
Sample Service Learning Project Goal: To make school a positive place for everyone. Possible projects Create posters with positive messages on friendship, cooperation, cross-cultural understanding, school spirit and other topics. Start school-wide campaigns to eliminate put-downs. Make posters, organize noon-hour events and involve school staff. Begin campaigns using posters, buttons and bulletin boards to encourage students to strive toward higher academic achievement. Develop special awards for improvement. Organize mini-workshops and tutoring programs. Plan appreciation days for school staff. Plan appreciation days for school volunteers.
Reading and Writing Strategies Promoting Frequent Reading –Read Alouds -- Read to students to model the joy and personal satisfaction knows by readers. Talk about favourite texts and favourite parts of texts. Invite students to respond to your reading. –Reading For Enjoyment – Encourage students to read for pleasure. Allow class time for book talks, independent reading, and discussion about favourite books. –Read Alongs – Improve reading skills by encouraging students to follow the reading of a text by a competent reader. Involve parents or volunteers in reading to children with an emphasis on children following the text to connect the sight and sound of words. Consider book-on- tape as a valuable resource for students to follow the reading of a text.
Promoting Frequent Reading (continued) The importance of extensive library collections to appeal to a variety of tastes, interests and abilities. boys who resist stories and poems are often motivated by books containing information, favourite sports and practical "how to" information. Your library collection should include books with both male and female protagonists, books that connect directly to students' familiar personal and cultural experiences. Books-on-tape and listening centres should feature prominently in the library collection.
Developing Reading Strategies Students should consider: 1.What strategies will I use before I read this text? 2.What strategies will I use as I read this text? 3.What strategies will I use after I read this text? Before Reading: Build or recall prior knowledge related to the text; use the title and illustration to think about useful prior knowledge. Consider your purpose for reading. Predict what might be in the text. List questions that you have about the text.
Students' Reading Strategies (continued) During Reading: Regularly make predictions and ask questions about as you read. Chunk the text by looking for periods, question marks, exclamation points, as well as paragraphs, or stanza breaks in poems. Visualize as you read. Run the movie in your mind. What do you see in each chunk of text? Link the text to personal experience. For example, if you are reading about friendship, consider familiar experiences that connect to the text. Check when something doesn't make sense. Often you need to re- read to confirm your understanding. Paraphrase. Explain the text in your own words.
After Reading: Summarize what you have read. Answer questions that you identified before reading. Decide whether your predictions were accurate. Check the text to confirm your interpretations. If you are answering questions answer, then check the text, to improve your answer. This strategy is particularly important when you must answer multiple-choice questions in reading tests. Students' Reading Strategies (continued)
Teacher's Instructional Strategies Think Alouds: Model instructional strategies with a selected text. Tell students about your strategies before, during and after reading the text. You can complete think-alouds with students followed by students completing a think-aloud with a partner. Remember to emphasize that different readers use different strategies.
Teacher's Instructional Strategies (continued) Prediction Activities: Chart students' predictions and confirmations about a specific text with a form such as the following: Before ReadingAfter Reading What I want I know about the topic: What I think I will learn about the topic: What I have learned about the topic:
The Unfolding Method: Have students cover a selected text with a piece of paper. Direct them to uncover ONLY the title and the illustrations. 1.Ask student to talk about background knowledge, make predictions and ask question questions. Discuss why these strategies are helpful to readers. 2.Direct students to uncover the first chunk of text, preferably a complete sentence Challenge students to use a selected strategy – visualizing; summarizing; questioning; predicting what follows. Again, remind students about the importance of these strategies in figuring out the meaning of text. Teacher's Instructional Strategies (continued)
The Unfolding Method: 3.Lead the unfolding process chunk by chunk with special attention to the final chunk. For the final chunk, have students make a final prediction about the text. This instructional strategy affords you the opportunity to teach that the final chunk of text often emphasizes a main idea, presents a surprising twist, or presents a character's or writer's reaction. Attention to the final chunk is particularly helpful as students determine the meaning of the text. Note: The method may be used as an oral exercise or a written exercise, i.e. students write on the paper than covers the text throughout the unfolding process. Teacher's Instructional Strategies (continued)
Focusing on Textual Detail Proficient readers are characterized by their attention to details. They: 1.Read the text. 2.Determine the meaning, possibly by answering questions. 3.Check the text to refine answers and/or interpretation. Split Page Answering/Interpreting Have students divide the note page in half. Following reading, direct students to note interpretations or to answer questions on the left side of the page. Then nudge students to check the text to refine answers or change answers on the right side of the note page. The activity can also be used to emphasize speaking and listening outcomes. Following class discussion of a text, have students note changes and refinements to original interpretations on the right side of the page. The activity emphasizes how one's own interpretations are enriched by the interpretations of others.
Focusing on Textual Detail (continued) Sequencing Chunks of Text: Cut up and scramble chunks of a brief text, possibly a short newspaper article or a short poem. Students then determine the correct order. Tactile learners particularly like to move the chunks of text as they consider possibilities. Graphic Organizers: Particularly useful for visual learners, representational activities with graphic organizers encourage students to attend to textual detail. Note that graphic organizers are often useful for writing tasks as well. The following chart, an illustration of a graphic organizer can be used to encourage close reading of stories as well as pre-writing of stories or narratives.
Somebody, Wanted, But, So, Then And It All Goes To Show That……. Focusing on Textual Detail (continued) SOMEBODY Identify the central character (protagonist). WANTED Identify where and when the story takes place and state the main character's goal—possibly something your character wishes for. BUT Identify the problem or challenge that the main character must deal with in the story. SO Indicate how the problem is resolved. THEN Note how the character reacted to the solution to the problem. AND IT ALL GOES TO SHOW THAT… Pay particular attention to the character's reactions and complete the "And it all goes to show that…" starter. This will help you interpret the story's theme.
Assessment Strategies Literal or factual questions fit the informational content in texts. Inferential questions work when students must use background knowledge to interpret text or when they must synthesize different textual information to interpret meaning. Evaluative questions require judgment and challenge students to gather evidence to support their judgments. For example, the evaluative question, "Is the title effective?" requires students to consider whether the title creates interest and whether it suits the contents that follow. The assessment of reading strategies: With an unfamiliar text, ask students to identify strategies employed before, during, and after reading. Ask students to comment on what they have learned about themselves as readers as well as their goals for future reading.
Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts Writing to Learn as Well as to Communicate One way to encourage frequent writing is to explore the question about why we write. Most students understand that people write to communicate. Fewer realize that people also write to learn, to explore and to understand. That is why teachers in several subjects include forms of journal writing in students' programs. Such writing focuses on risk-taking and working through ideas rather than on correctness and conventional forms. Despite their exploratory purpose, journal entries are sometimes refined and polished to become final draft writing. Learning Logs—Students write about their learning of a subject. Teachers prompt students to write about their current understandings, their uncertainties and their questions. Learning logs usefully include visual representations, goals and plans to complete specific tasks.
Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts (continued) Personal Responses to Literature—Personal responses to literature focus on connections between one's life and a literary text as well as on one's personal reading experience. Students comment on likes, dislikes, questions, predictions, and alternatives to choices made by the author. Personal response to literature often takes the form of a visual representation, perhaps a book cover or poster. It may also take the form of writing about experiences, situations, settings, conflicts and characters that connect the student's life to the text. Journals—Pure journal writing programs allow total choice about what to write about. Learning logs and personal responses to literature are more connected to learning content. In journal writing, teachers encourage students to write about experiences of personal interest and significance. Teachers nudge students to consider the voice that is appropriate to the writing.
"RAFTS" Role, Audience, Format, Topic and Strong Verb Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts (continued) EXPLANATIONEXAMPLES R- ROLE……..From whose point of view am I writing? self, character in a story, parent, friend, historical or political figure, author A- AUDIENCE……To whom am I writing? What is my relationship to the audience? self, friend, parent, author, politician, company, editor F- FORMAT…..What particular writing form is appropriate or assigned? letter, story song, business letter, diary entry, eulogy, newspaper advertisement T- TOPIC…..What am I writing about?friendship, job application, favourite activities, junk food, rights and responsibilities S- STRONG VERB—What is my purpose or what are my purposes? What do I wish to achieve in my writing? explain, condemn, describe, argue, deny, whine, thank, brag, commend
Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts (continued) FormatPre-writing Strategy StoryUse "Somebody, Wanted, But, So, Then, And it all goes to show that…" described in the Reading Strategies section. DescriptionEncourage students to use direct observation. For example, instead of inviting students to recall a soccer game, ask them to observe a game with notepad in hand. Challenge students to assess their emotional responses and to note details that convey the emotion.In addition, challenge students to develop writing voice by noting unique details – details that may not be obvious to others. Explanations or Expository Writing Most students prefer a graphic organizer to an outline. Place "RAFTS" in the centre box. Identify three or four subtopics and organize specific information under each subtopic. This approach works well for computer searches of websites. Students note three or four specific questions about a topic and then search and make notes to find answers to these questions.
Drafting and Revision Strategies Students may need to revisit their pre-writing work to change plans or to gather further information. Students often benefit from talking to someone about what they are trying to write. Students should place a checkmark above sentences that seem unclear and an "S" above spelling uncertainties. They should keep drafting and deal with these concerns when they revise. Students sometimes benefit from reading through everything that they have drafted to consider "What next" options. Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts (continued)
"As will be seen in the meta-analysis section of this review, students who have been actively involved in the use of criteria and/or questions to judge texts of their own or others, write compositions of significantly higher quality than those who have not." (p.24) "As a group these studies conclude rather clearly that engaging young writers actively in the use of criteria, applied to their own and each others' writing, results not only in more effective writing but in superior first drafts." (p. 160) Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts (continued)
Guide students to review for criteria such as: I changed this sentence to for clarity: I added the following detail to strengthen my writing: My introduction creates interest by: I employed the following transition techniques: Three precise and colourful words that I used are "____________", "____________" and "___________". An effective short sentence is: A sentence which begins with something other than the subject is: I checked on the following words for spelling correctness: I checked on the following matters of grammar/usage: While students may use sheets with selected criteria to report on their revisions, some students prefer to use highlighters or post-it notes. Instructional Strategies for Writing and Other Language Arts (continued)
Review the strategies discuss why these types of strategies work well with FNMI students, for example: Talking Circles – relate to FNMI oral traditions Portfolios – allow teachers to assess a wide variety of tasks Services Learning – hands on approach suits FNMI learners Read Alouds – relate to oral traditions Graphic Organizers – help make abstract ideas concrete Others? Activity: Strategies for FNMI Students
Fill in the graphic organizer based on what you learned, why it's important and what you can do with the information. Work in partners or on your own. Fill out the Action Plan graphic organizer and describe your goals and how you plan to achieve them based on what you learned in the workshop. Activity: Here's What, So What, Now What? Activity: Action Plan

Recently there was conference of Muslim clerics ('ulama) in Malaysia that came up with 22 resolutions (some call fatwa). Among them being that it was not allowed for Muslims to conduct a joint celebration of festivities, which has been a common scene in Malaysia and Singapore for the last few years. In the last few years, we have seen some religious festivities like Hari Raya (Eid), Deepavali and Chinese New Year coinciding in dates or at least occcuring very close to each other, perhaps even 1 day apart. This is primarily because of the way the Islamic calendar operates versus the calendars subscribed by the Chinese and Hindus. The celebrations and festivities were great fun because everyone shared their festivities and learnt about the diverse cultures and faiths.
Anyway there were some interesting articles concerning the issue. In a comment made by Rose Ismail entitled "Is Our Faith That Fragile", she said "A joint Chinese New Year-Hari Raya gathering, where I would probably eat an orange, a handful of peanuts and a biscuit or two, should not turn me into a traitor of the religion". She also said "It seems to suggest that our faith in God is so fundamentally fragile that, on the slightest pretext, we can be persuaded to jump ship". You can read her article here.
I agree with Rose. Why do these austere clerics think that celebrating such festivities would make us Muslims weak in faith. It's absolute nonsense. I mean if the Muslims were to celebrate their festivities within their own confines, then where is the da'wah? How do we make others understand Islam? How can we expose others to Islam and Muslims? So, when others don't understand Islam, then we can only blame ourselves.
Zainah Anwar also wrote a stinging article concerning the ridiculous fatwa. She wrote in "Making Taboo A Cherished Tradition":
WHAT next on the laundry list of the forbidden? On Tuesday, it was pluralism and liberalism that posed a danger to the faith of Muslims. On Wednesday it was kongsi raya and open house. Tomorrow will it be the Barisan Nasional multi-ethnic coalition system that is haram because such close co-operation might undermine the faith of the Muslims in Umno.
So what else will those bent on turning this country into a theocratic dictatorship focus their attention on next?
The Ninth Malaysia Plan has been launched. National priorities and challenges have been identified and everyone is rolling up their sleeves to get to work. And what did some of our ulama do? They met for two days to declare so much of what we love and celebrate about Malaysia and being Malaysian, as threats to the Muslim faith. What else could be in the 22 resolutions passed by the Majlis Muzakarah of our ulama this week? What among the 11 fatwas passed by the Majlis Ulama Indonesia or from the thousands in the Wahhabi catalogue of fatwas did they decide to adopt?

Quoting TripleDelta (Thread starter): negotiations with Bombardier for four CRJ-900 are already underway. |
Quoting JoKeR (Reply 1): I wonder if JU and OU approached Bombardier together and got a better price? |
Quoting JoKeR (Reply 1): JAT is still going ahead with CRJ-900 purchase as well |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 2): If they asked me, CRJ-900 is what JAT needs, but their general menager is constantly repeating they need 70-seater. |
Quoting BigSky123 (Reply 3): Seems like the CRJ900 will become a popular plane in the Adriatic area. |
Quoting CRJ900 (Reply 4): Then they can buy both |
Quoting CRJ900 (Reply 4): Hopefully they think so too and send their best marketing and sales people over here... |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 2): they asked me, CRJ-900 is what JAT needs, but their general menager is constantly repeating they need 70-seater. Somehow, I'm still afraid that they might go for CRJ-700 and have regional jets of the same capacity as ATR-72. |
Quoting JoKeR (Reply 6): Possible but I think they got a much better offer for the CR9 than the CR7. |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 2): The good thing about possible purchase of CRJ-900 is that OU can count on technical support of Lufthansa. |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 2): nterestingly, with MAT already operating CRJ-900 |
Quoting TripleDelta (Reply 9): MAT got its three for $86 million, which is, as far as I get it, pretty cheap |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 10): In fact, it is one of the prototypes. |
Quoting CB777 (Reply 13):
Does OU have any plans on retiring the ATR-42's any time soon? |
Quoting Mig21UMD (Reply 12): Might be a good time to send OU my resume |
Quoting TripleDelta (Reply 11): "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard this MAT prototype CRJ-900." |
Quoting JoKeR (Reply 16): "Welcome aboard this MAT experimental CRJ-900" |
Quoting TripleDelta (Reply 15): In a related story, OU is looking for five captains and first officers for the A319/320 fleet... |
Quoting Mig21UMD (Reply 18):
I would like to know what Croatia Airlines pilots are payed? If anyone has any idea please tell base rate for Captains and FO's? |
Quoting CB777 (Reply 19):
Any other news for OU for next year 2007, maybe bigger airplanes? or any new routes? |
Quoting Mig21UMD (Reply 21): It would be great to see OU flights to the US and Australia |
Quoting TripleDelta (Reply 24): |
Quoting Mig21UMD (Reply 26): Well Jat still seems to be bogged down somewhat and restricted to the tradition that have existed with the airline for a long time. In a business sense that is a bad thing because you have to convince all involved to except radical changes with in the company. |
Quoting Mig21UMD (Reply 26): Croatia Airlines can start with a 'clean slate' and develop the model to there and the markets liking. |
Quoting CB777 (Reply 28): Doesnt OU have 6 A320's types on option? If I remember correctly back in 1997 the original airbus order was 6 confirmed which are now delivered and 6 options. Why dont they put the 6 options to confirmed orders? |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 5): So, DC-9 will have a successor. I believe, you also rememeber how many DC-9s of JAT and Adria were there around. |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 23): OU and JP did a good job joining the Star Alliance. |
Quoting JoKeR (Reply 7): JP badly needs good refurbishments of their A320's - even better, new aircraft! I thought that JAT's 733's interiors were bad, that's until I discovered that JP's were about the same. |
Quoting Adria (Reply 31): But the DCs were comfortable compared to the CRJ-900 |
Quoting Adria (Reply 31): I don't think that joining Star was a good step for JP. |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 32): Also, it would not be a bad idea to consider Q400. |
Quoting CRJ900 (Reply 33): With LJU in the middle of Europe, most destinations are, what, 1-2 hours away? Perfect for the Q300 and Q400, with CRJ700 and CRJ900 for longer flights. |
Quoting Aleksandar (Reply 32): My feeling is that something is wrong with priorities in Adria when you look at their fleet plans. I would rather see few A319s as a replacement of their old A320s which seem too big for Slovenian market. Also, it would not be a bad idea to consider Q400. |
Quoting Adria (Reply 36): They probably won't go back to props (but they should). |
Quoting CB777 (Reply 30): I guess the A321 would be too big for their routes? |

With Monome's new eurorack modular equipment, a few new utility modules are needed to fully integrate the USB connections with control voltage and analog audio. The Switch is here to do just that. It provides external power for the Monome Grids controller, which operates in isolation from your Eurorack power supply. Simply screw the module into your case and you're ready to power up. With the 9v adaptor included, attach that to the 9-24V DC jack at the base of the module, and the USB jack will now provide bus power for USB devices.
The Switch doesn't just provide power, it can also switch the context in which the Monome Grids is being used. There are two USB outputs for digital connections, (White Whale and the Earthsea, or a computer,) which can both be patched into their respective modules, and the Monome can quickly switch from one control standard to the next with the flip of a switch.

Power goes out at Disneyland, part of Anaheim
ANAHEIM – A power outage temporarily affected customers near Disneyland and in the park itself on Wednesday night.
The outage began at 8:42 p.m. near the intersection of Harbor Boulevard and Chapman Avenue – about two blocks from Disneyland – and affected about 4,000 customers, according to the City of Anaheim. It wasn't clear how many of the customers were businesses or residences.
Visitors to the Disney Resort tweeted that power was temporarily out. One parkgoer, Alana Yarbrough, snapped a photo of the Sleeping Beauty Castle darkened, save for a few purple lights.
Twitter user Kaitlyn Robrock wrote: "Except for emergency lighting, all power to the #Disneyland resort is gone. This is extremely freaky, even the street lights are out."
Service was restored to the area by 9:21 p.m., according to the city's public utilities page.
The cause appeared to be a transformer that blew out at the city's power plant, said Anaheim police Sgt. John Bailey. The outage was caused by an animal that made its way into one of the city's substations and interrupted power, said City of Anaheim spokeswoman Erin Ryan.
Service to the theme park was minimally impacted, Ryan said. She wasn't aware of any accidents related to the outage.
City News Service contributed to this report.

This groundbreaking work of literature was originally written as an extended choreopoem, debuted on Broadway in 1976, and is an upcoming star-studded movie. For the first time, it is brought to live in audio in this powerful and moving performance by one of the film's stars, acclaimed actress Thandie Newton.
Playwright, poet, and novelist Ntozake Shange originally composed for colored girls who have considered suicide/when the rainbow is enuf in as a mesmerizingly original choreopoem. The New York Post called it "rich with the author's special voice: by turns bitter, funny, ironic, and savage; fiercely honest and personal." Now a new audiobook, it chronicles the interconnected lives of a group of women facing shatteringly difficult issues, and evokes the indomitable power of enduring hope and joy.
Thandie Newton, from the movies Crash, The Pursuit of Happyness, and W., captures each emotion with heartbreaking honesty in a fearless, passionate, and inspiring performance of the author's vivid and lyrical language. The New York Times says "Ntozake Shange writes with such exquisite care and beauty that anyone can relate to her message."
©1975, 1976, 1977 Ntozake Shange (P)2010 Audible, Inc
"These poems and prose selections are...rich with the author's special voice: by turns bitter, funny, ironic, and savage; fiercely honest and personal." (New York Post)
"Extraordinary and wonderful" (Clive Barnes, The New York Times)
"Overwhelming...It's joyous and alive, affirmative in the face of despair." (Douglas Watt, New York Daily News)
"Thandie Newton's narration works well with the introduction. Her voice echoes the weight and emphasis of Shange's words…Newton creates distinct voices for each part." (AudioFile)
"Doesn't Work Well as Audio Book"
I found it very hard to understand parts of the book. I think that this type of work is probably better either as a play or just in book form. Each character is introduced every-time they speak so effectively for large sections of the book you are mostly hearing, lady in blue, lady in green, and so on with little in-between. I did find the overall work to be very haunting and touching so I don't think that it is a problem with the general material, but rather the form. Possibly like one other reviewer suggested if a cast read the book instead of just one performer this would be effective if they just didn't say who they were each time they spoke. However, I think that this would make it impossible to remember who was who unless they were very distinctive.
"Audible--please try again"
I bet the play is great, but this doesn't work as a single voiced audio book. Why wasn't it recorded with a full cast? The material is fine, so is the reader, but it's incredibly difficult to follow the sections where each character says one word of the sentence when there is only one reader who has to read something like
Miss Red: I
Miss Blue: bet
Miss Green: the
Miss Yellow: play
...you get the picture. Hearing the sentence spoken by multiple voices would be rich and easy to follow. Hearing one person read it as a script, character name followed by word, is cumbersome at best. I only got through it because it's so short.
This is just the wrong presentation of this particular work.
"Great classic!"
I enjoyed this novel, Tandie's performance was amazing. Was it revised? I missed 1st release, so I'm not sure when it was written or if it was in the AIDS era?
"A Very Beautiful Book"
I've enjoyed listening to this book. Not only is it interesting, Thandie Newton is an amazing reader and the story is amazing. Highly recommended.
"Beautifully written, eloquently performed!"
I have listened to 16 titles, and this book ranks #1! I listen to it over and over again, I love it. The Author paints vivid pictures with the stories she tells, and the Narrator makes these women and their stories come to life!
How the Author conveyed each woman by color, highlighting different aspects of society, from a woman's, specifically one who is of color, point of view. I like that the Author wrote the book in a way that was entertaining, enlightening, and encouraging.
The monologue, "My Stuff".
My Love is too Sincere to be thrown back in my face.
The first time I read the book, I was maybe 19 or 20. I am twenty-seven now and still love the book, maybe more so now. I can appreciate the book more now, and instead of being a sad book, it has become an inspirational book. All women, especially those of color should read this book. Men should, too. It could shed some light and give a perspective they might not otherwise see.
I am not into poems and only bought this as Tyler Perry used this as a basis for his movie. Thandie did a great job bringing this work to life. Easy to follow! Entertaining.
"Don't waste your money.."
This book was read beautifully, however it doesn't have a very good plot. It is an extremely DEPRESSING work. Go see the play or the movie. They have to be better than this book.
Tell us about yourself!
"Just awful!! Don"t bother."
The poem was better than the movie. How did it become a movie? Everything written by black author is good. I support our black authors, but this particular piece is not worth the paper it was printed on.
"Loved It"
The book was well written, and Thandie Newton did an excellent job as the narrator. The way she changes her voice to suit each persona was brilliant.
"hated it"
the title makes it sound like it would be interesting. its not.

text: (MET) A treatment is based on a model of change, with focus on the stages of change. Stages of change represent constellations of intentions and behaviors through which individuals pass as they move from having a problem to doing something to resolve it. The stages of change move from "pre-contemplation," in which individuals show no intention of changing, to the "action" stage, in which they are actively engaged in overcoming their problem. Transition from one stage to the next is sequential, but not linear. The aim of MET is to help individuals move from earlier stages into the action stage using cognitive and emotional strategies. |
