Discussion in 'Other Hoops Talk' started by detteam, Oct 13, 2011.
Michigan's reaction to winning/sharing their first Big 10 title since 1986...
Big Ten tourney starts Thursday. MSU is #1 seed, UM #2, OSU #3, and Wisconsin is #4......... Top 4 get a first round bye. Action for us starts next Friday at home....... Michigan gets the Northwestern - Minnesota winner. MSU gets the Iowa - Illinois winner. Right now.................looks like MSU and OSU are #2 seeds in the tourney. Michigan is #3........... I'd suggest to MSU - OSU that they don't take this Big Ten tourney lightly.......... They could fall behind Michigan in seeding....................
A week ago.........Sparty is up by 2 games. they lose their last two Big Ten games. I hope Izzo can pull these guys out of their rut........... Seeing the big guy shoot around 30% (6-21) against OSU had to hurt..........
I don't think MSU is in a rut. They lost to a top 20 team on the road and then they lost by 2 points to the #11 team in the country. It's brutal to battle through the Big Ten season. MSU will be fine.
Way to stay classy, Nemo. Losing Branden Dawson to a torn ACL in the 1st half certainly didn't help the cause. Gonna be tougher to win the BTT and/or make it past the Sweet 16 without Dawson. But if anyone can help pull it off it's Big Ten Coach of the Year Izzo and his on-floor coaching protégé, Big Ten Player of the Year and NCAA First Team All-American, Draymond Green...also named to the Big Ten All-Defensive team.
I didn't see the game nor was aware of the injury.... I also never claimed to always be classy......... Still.........MSU will be formidable in the Tourney. Hopefully.........Michigan gets to see you guys in the final 4.
MSU will either face Illinois or Iowa. Illini beat MSU in their only meeting holding MSU to barely 40 points in the game. Iowa to me is a dark horse in the Big Ten Tourney, as they have been hot lately and have a scoring machine who could light it up against a formidable foe. The guard play at MSU needs to step it up for them to be successful...especially Appling who needs to start shining. Too much pressure is being placed on Green to be the superstar each game. An Izzo coached team normally shows much more team balance............. I will be saddened if OSU wins this tourney. Michigan may have to be the ones to stop them...........again.
Montana beat Weber St. to win the regular season title. Beat em by 14 points when it mattered. In the Big Sky Tourney, they meet again. Weber St. jumps to a 5 point halftime lead........ Weber St. is 19-1 this season when leading at the half............. Montana outscored them 54-30 in the second half. Beat em by 19 points when it mattered. They've punched their ticket..................... I really wanna see Montana get MSU in the first round. A #2 seed against a #15 seed. Montana is a shooting team.........like Michigan. Their star is a guard named Kareem Jamar........no sky hook here though.......... With such an impressive win.........Maybe Montana moves up to as high as a 13th seed.........
MSU wins tournaments.If they make it to the sweet 16, we will start paying attention. It's so nice that you're excited that Michigan made it this year. That NIT stuff was probably getting old.Plus you got to split the Big Ten championship with MSU. What an awesome year for U of M. Does the basketball team get automatic points at the beginning of each game like the football team does? It's only fair that they do. Wouldn't want to play favorites. Montana. What State is that located in? Is that a division III school? Are they on Michigan's football schedule next year? Is that why you are so pumped up about them. I don't blame you. I heard Montana almost beat Appalaichan State a couple years ago. Just like Michigan. Good thing Michigan only plays home games each year because I don't think they could find Montana.
I haven't watched any Montana games this season. I did watch Oregon vs. Colorado last week. Ugly, man, ugly. Both teams played hard. And both teams played poorly. I love the pros, but I also love local ball. I think if you only watch the pro game, the local college teams might seem, well, amateurish. The flip side is that watching the local teams and college ball gives you a greater appreciation of what it takes to make the pro level.
I like watching the smaller conferences play their tourneys'. They know that most likely the winner of the tourney will be the only one invited to the NCAA's. Some of these conferences will get in 6 or 8 teams, which makes the conference tourney less exciting. Montana played Weber St. Weber features the best FT team in the NCAA shooting 81% as a team. Their lead scorer is 2nd in the nation in PPG, averaging 25 points. This guy, Damien Lillard also shoots 88% from the FT line. To bury that kind of a team in the 2nd half was very exciting for me and all the Montana fans.
Wow, shooting 81% FT as a team is pretty impressive! I like watching the local schools too. When I lived in Ypsilanti, I went to several Eagles games, where I got to watch the unbelievable Earl Boykins tear it up. The last few years here in Seattle I got to watch the new Isaiah Thomas play for the Huskies. He's incredibly good, but very small. I never thought he would make it to the pros... should have known better after watching Earl. Isaiah is tearing it up off the bench for the Kings right now.
Did all of you gather at Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the game?
Hooligans Sports Bar has the HUGE screen........we all gathered there.......... http://www.hooliganssportsbar.com/
Big Ten tourney features UM - OSU and Wisconsin - MSU..........as it should be. See you MSU guys in the championship game....
A very meaningful game for the Wolverines today. #10 Michigan plays #7 Ohio State.......... Basically, the pundits have already awarded the Buckeyes the Big Ten tourney. They're now listed as a #1 seed in the NCAAs, based on some upset losses in other conference tourneys. I know MSU will bust up the buckeyes if they somehow meet in the Big Ten finals......... Don't look for MSU to have to contend with OSU this tourney............ Wolverine NATION will stand tall...................UM 83 - OSU 77 MICHIGAN - Go Blue........
Congrats to MSU for making the Big Ten championship game...first time since 2000. Michigan is losing to OSU with 10 minutes left. They're shooting .250 for the game right now. Shots attempted, assists, and rebounds all look equal. With such cold shooting like that out of UM, I gotta figure that OSU is doing a better job of shooing away the penguins that are on the court. OH well.......I was hoping that MSU would win this tourney........I want them as our #1 seed.
The announcers are questioning how Michigan even tied for the conference title....me too....but to be fare, that OT game probably took a lot out the Wolverines last night...Trey Burke played the whole game. The refs didn't help either calling some questionable charges and travel calls at the beginning that shook the Wolverines confidence. Sulinger took Morgan completely out of his game as the dude missed a couple bunny/dunks and shot an air ball from 2 feet on the right side of the hoop. Whoever the Wolverines match up with in the tournament, just needs to view todays tape to possibly hope that they can upset Michigan. Let's hope the tournament doesn't match Michigan State or Michigan up with a first round game with Detroit Mercy
Oh man...KARMA!!!!!!!!!!!!! U of M CRUSHED! nemo, You laughed at MSU for losing by a couple of points to OSU the other day after our guy got hurt. Now YOUR boys lose to the same team a couple of days later? By 22!!!!! All that smack. Rich! No wonder you laughed at MSU...sharing the Big Ten Title with U of M IS laughable. MSU wins tomorrow or loses. I will get excited if they go sweet 16...AGAIN. I very much doubt it butI don't care very much, to be honest. This time of year is so much fun, anyhow.
Game over in 5 minutes? Seriously? Maybe Michigan (and certain fans of theirs) celebrated too much too early, eh, you Big Eye Mouthbrooder? Is OSU THAT good...or is Michigan THAT bad? Winner of Sparty vs. OSU game maybe gets the #1 seed. The two best Big Ten teams made it to the final of the tournament. As it should be. My gut...OSU wins...but NOT by 22 points! http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/recap?gid=201203100357

FAQs About Financial Aid Loans
Click on a question below for the answer. Click on the question again to close.
- How do I apply for a student loan?
- Most students these days find that they need to get some type of loan to help finance
their education. Federal Stafford loans are the best place to start, because they
are the least expensive. The student loan program is a government, private industry,
educational partnership.
First, you must complete the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) to determine your eligibility for a student loan. In about three to four weeks the school will receive information from the federal processing center which will determine what type of loan you will be able to receive. (Subsidized, Unsubsidized or both). At this point you should have received a letter from the financial aid office to let you know what other documentation will be needed to process your request for a loan. Once all the required documentation is received and verified, you will be sent an award letter to accept your loan. At this point you can cancel your loan or reduce the amount listed on the award letter and return this to the financial aid office.
All first time borrowers or students must complete an Entrance Counseling and Master Promissory Note (MPN) online at www.studentloans.gov.
- What is a Stafford Loan?
- A Stafford loan is variable interest rate loan made to students based on financial
need. There are two kinds of Stafford Loans: Subsidized and Unsubsidized. With a Subsidized
Stafford loan, you are not responsible for the interest charged on the loan as long
as you are in school as an at least half-time student. Instead, the government pays
the interest for you while you are in school. Students receiving Unsubsidized Stafford
loans are responsible for the interest charged on the loan while in school (the rate
varies annually based on the prior year average T-Bill rates but will never exceed
8.25%). A student can choose to either pay the interest or capitalize it.
Capitalization occurs on a periodic basis and compounds over time – meaning interest charged on the principal is added to the principal, and then interest is charged on the principal plus interest and so on. Beware; capitalized interest can be a very costly! It's best to pay the interest if you can. Repayment of either type does not begin until six months after the student graduates or stops attending on an at least a half time basis (6 undergraduate hours or 4.5 graduate hours). It is recommended that students make an effort to pay down the interest on an annual basis.
- What is a Federal PLUS Loan?
- Federal PLUS Loans allow parents to borrow for each dependent undergraduate student who is enrolled in college at least half time. Graduate or professional students are also eligible to borrow PLUS loans. The loan limit is the full cost of the student's education each academic year, less grants and other financial aid the student receives. Any PLUS Loan applicant determined to have an adverse credit history is required to have an endorser who is obligated to pay the loan if the borrower does not. PLUS borrowers of loans first disbursed on or after July 1, 2008, have the option to start making payments within 60 days after full disbursement of funds or wait until 6 months after the student's enrollment at least half time ends.
- Are alternative loans guaranteed by the federal government?
- No. Alternative loans are private loans issued by private lenders. Third party organizations may guarantee these loans, but the federal government has no involvement. The responsibility lies with you. However, the financial aid office is required to consider this as financial aid and students may not borrow in excess of their COA (cost of education).Western Kentucky University will expect you to submit the FAFSA and be considered for federal loans before applying for private loans.
- How much money can I borrow?
- The amount of loan you can borrow is determined by your classification (freshman, sophomore, etc.) Freshmen are eligible for $3,500 for the academic year, sophomores are eligible for $4,500 for the academic year, and juniors and seniors are eligible for $5,500 for the academic year. The loan is split between fall and spring. If this loan amount is not sufficient, your parent(s) may apply for a Parent Plus loan. Aggregate limits will also be taken into consideration.
- How many hours do I have to be enrolled in to qualify for a Stafford Loan?
- Undergraduate students must be enrolled in at least 6 undergraduate hours (400 level or below classes) and graduate must be enrolled in at least 4.5 Graduate hours (500 level or above classes) to be eligible for Stafford Loans. Enrollment will be verified at the end of the first week of classes.
- Do I need good credit to get a Stafford loan? Are credit checks done to get one?
- No. Eligibility for Stafford loans is not dependent on your credit history.
- Can I use student loan money for other expenses such as a computer, books, or even rent?
- Yes, you can usually borrow more than the exact amount of your tuition. Leftover funds can be used to cover additional expenses. Talk to your financial aid office for details and only borrow what you absolutely need.
- I have been awarded a Stafford loan, what paperwork do I need to complete for the loan to disburse?
- To receive a Stafford loan, you must have a valid Direct Loan Master Promissory Note (MPN) on file with the U.S. Department of Education and have satisfied Stafford Loan Entrance Counseling requirements. Both the Direct Loan Master Promissory Note and Stafford Loan Entrance Counseling requirements may be satisfied on-line at http://www.studentloans.gov.
- When do I complete the Federal Direct Loan Master Promissory Note (MPN)?
- The Master Promissory Note (MPN) must be signed by all Federal Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loan borrowers. Once the Federal Loan Origination Center (LOC) confirms to SFA that a valid MPN is on file, additional MPN's need not be signed for new loan periods, a period of up to 10 years or until you contact the LOC to cancel the MPN. First-time loan borrowers may sign a new MPN as early as January 1 prior to the school year from which you seek financial assistance.
- Is it legal for a 17-year-old student to sign a promissory note for a student loan, even though the student has not yet reached the age of majority?
- Normally, a minor cannot be held liable for a contract that they sign. However, in
1992 the Higher Education Act was amended to permit eligible students, defined as
per Title IV regulations, to sign promissory notes for their own Federal student loans.
As such, student loans represent one of the few exceptions to the so-called "defense
of infancy". The specific citation is section 484A (b) (2) of the Higher Education
Act of 1965 (20 USC 1091a (b) (2)), and applies to Stafford, PLUS and Consolidation
Loans. It does not appear to apply to Perkins and Direct Loans, although it was clearly
the intent of Congress that it should.
Several states have also passed similar laws that consider minors to be competent to enter into a contract for an education loan. This extends similar protection to private and non-federal loans. All private education loans require a cosigner when the student is under the age of majority, just to be safe.
- I signed a promissory note last year. Why don't I have to sign one this year?
- The Master Promissory Note has been used since the 1999-2000 academic year for all
Direct Subsidized and Unsubsidized Loans. The Master Promissory Note can be used to
make one or more loans for one or more academic years (not to exceed ten years).
It was designed to reduce paperwork and loan processing time for both students and schools.
Remember, your promissory note is a legally binding document. Read over it carefully.
- Are my parents responsible for my educational loans?
- No. Parents are, however, responsible for the Federal PLUS loans. Parents will only
be responsible for your educational loans if they co-sign your loan. In general you
and you alone are responsible for repaying your educational loans.
You do not need to get your parents to cosign your federal student loans, even if you are under age 18, as the 'defense of infancy' does not apply to federal student loans. (The defense of infancy presumes that a minor is not able to enter into contracts, and considers any such contract to be void. There is an explicit exemption to this principle in the Higher Education Act with regard to federal student loans.) However, lenders may require a cosigner on private student loans if your credit history is insufficient or if you are underage. In fact, many private student loan programs are not available to students under age 18 because of the defense of infancy.
If your parents (or grandparents) want to help pay off your loan, you can have your billing statements sent to their address. Likewise, if your lender or loan servicer provides an electronic payment service, where the monthly payments are automatically deducted from a bank account, your parents can agree to have the payments deducted from their account. But your parents are under no obligation to repay your loans. If they forget to pay the bill on time or decide to cancel the electronic payment agreement, you will be held responsible for the payments, not them.
- When do I need a cosigner on a loan and how do I decide who that should be?
- Cosigners can be used to help secure a private loan, but are not always necessary. If you do not have a long credit history or do not have good credit, having a cosigner may help you get approved for a private loan or get a better interest rate. If you do decide that you need a cosigner, make sure that person(s) understands and accepts his/her responsibility as one. Cosigners are as responsible for paying the loan as the borrower is. Talk to your financial aid office and lender for more information.
- I was awarded a Stafford loan but I want to reduce the amount, how can I do that?
- If you want to reduce any award on your award letter, you simply submit an email to email@example.com and state the amount of the award that you want to reduce. Please attempt to do this as soon as possible after your award is sent to you.
- How can I increase my federal loans?
- When your FAFSA information is reviewed and a financial aid award is constructed for
you, your award will include the maximum amount of federal loans you may be eligible
for at that time. If your FAFSA information or other educational information changes,
your loan eligibility may increase or decrease.
If your grade level increases, you may be eligible to receive additional funding. You must request this at Student Financial Aid. The additional amounts will be reflected in a revised financial aid award letter and a disclosure statement from your lender.
Keep in mind that there are aggregate loan limits (total maximum amount you are eligible to borrow) and loan limits per grade level in the Federal Direct Loan Program.
- My grade level is going to increase in the spring/summer. Will I be eligible for more financial aid?
- You might be eligible for more Federal Subsidized Student Stafford or Unsubsidized
Stafford loans. Once your Fall/Spring grades have been posted on the Student Information
System, if your grade level has increased from a Freshman level to a Sophomore level
(30 credit hours earned), or has changed from the Sophomore level to a Junior level
(60 credit hours earned) you may be eligible for more Federal Student Stafford Loan
or Federal Student Unsubsidized Stafford loan. This depends on your Cost of Attendance
and the amount of your initial financial aid award.
If you would like your eligibility for a loan increase to be reviewed, send an e-mail message to email@example.com with your specific request. If you are eligible, the loan amount will be increased and you will receive a disbursement as scheduled. (A new loan application is not needed). Direct Loans will mail a disclosure statement to you reflecting the award increase. A new financial aid award letter will also include the additional loan amounts. The increase could affect your loan eligibility for the upcoming summer if you plan on attending and receiving federal loans. It will have no impact on the next academic year.
- Can I reject all or part of my loan?
- Yes, you can reject all or part of your loan. It will not affect the loan amount that you are offered for the next academic year.
- I cannot accept my Perkins loan on my Topnet account. Why?
- The offered beside the Perkins loan won't change to accept until after you have done your counseling session for this loan. The Perkins Loan Office mails out letters regarding the counseling session to Perkins students in July.
- I cannot accept my Parent Plus loan on my Topnet account. Why?
- The offered beside the Parent Plus loan will not change to accept until after your parent has completed the loan application. The Parent Plus loan can only be accepted by your parent.
- Where are my student loans?
- NSLDS Student Access National Student Loan Data System (Requires FAFSA PIN) The National
Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) is the U.S. Department of Education's (ED's) central
database for student aid. NSLDS receives data from schools, guaranty agencies, the
Direct Loan program, the Pell Grant program, and other Department of ED programs.
NSLDS Student Access provides a centralized, integrated view of Title IV loans and
Pell grants so that recipients of Title IV Aid can access and inquire about their
Title IV loans and/or Pell grant data.
Apply for a PIN US Department of Education PIN Registration. Your PIN can be used each year to electronically apply for federal student aid and to access your U.S. Department of Education records online. If you receive a PIN, you agree to not disclose or share your PIN with anyone. Your PIN serves as your electronic signature and provides access to your personal records. You should never give your PIN to anyone, including commercial services that offer to help you complete your FAFSA. Be sure to keep your PIN in a safe place.
- If I am in default on an educational loan, can I still receive financial aid?
- No.
Students who are currently in default on educational loans are not eligible to receive federal financial aid. Our office recommends that you contact your lender and attempt to make satisfactory payment arrangements with them.
If your default status has been resolved, you must provide a letter from your lender(s) stating that the default status has been resolved and that you are again eligible to receive federal financial aid.
- If I take a leave of absence, do I have to start repaying my loans?
- Not immediately. The subsidized Stafford loan has a grace period of 6 months and the
Perkins loan a grace period of 9 months before the student must begin repaying the
loan. When you take a leave of absence you will not have to repay your loan until
the grace period is used up. If you use up the grace period, however, when you graduate
you will have to begin repaying your loan immediately. It is possible to request an
extension to the grace period, but this must be done before the grace period is used
If your grace period has run out in the middle of your leave of absence, you will have to start making payments on your student loans.
- How do I keep my loan from going into repayment when I switch colleges?
- Generally, there is a six-month grace period from the time you stop attending school and until your Stafford loan enters repayment and payments become due. Your financial aid office should be able to help because most colleges do regular enrollment reporting that provides loan holders with information on your status. Also, contacting your lender will make sure you understand when payments will be due and let you tell them that you are still attending school.
- Do I need to complete the Exit Counseling requirement?
- You must complete the Exit Counseling requirement if any of the following apply: your enrollment falls below half-time status (6 credit hours for undergraduate students, 4.5 credit hours for graduate students), you withdraw or if you graduate. Go to www.studentloans.gov, click on Exit Counseling under the Tools and Resources section on the front page, and follow the instructions to complete the Exit Counseling.
- I am having trouble making my student loan payments. What can I do?
- There are options for borrowers who need payment relief. The most important first step is to contact your lender as soon as possible. You can work with your lender to adjust your monthly payments or, if needed, request deferment or apply for forbearance. Do your research and discuss the options with your lender to be sure you understand each option and its consequences.

Although some people might look at this and think "Dear God, how could anyone do that to those poor defenseless animals?" You also have to understand that this is a graphic. No turtles were harmed in the making of this shirt. I'll also be laughing at those people whilst I wear this shirt (assuming it wins a placement).
I like the design. It's humorous in that dark and sinister way that always reminds me of middle school.
Also, I've been buying shirts for a bit (admittedly quite a few are Ramyb's designs) but I haven't posted in the community for very long. What is the deal with all the hate? What did Ramyb do exactly to garnish all this negative attention?

Yeah, on the submission page on the left side it states: "Your Design Detail & Shirt Comp images must show halftones." That means no gradients.
The Dino shirt did submit gradients, but then he removed it, converted to halftones, and resubmitted.

This is full of disgusting, disturbing win. I can't help but love it. I agree with Boots- LOVE the rainbow braces. What a great little way to insert some extra color. I won't go insane if this gets rejected, but I really hope it doesn't
Why would it receive a pardon?
I guess they must have changed the rules of this particular derby to "oh heck, just submit whatever you want because everyone is anyway, and if we reject everything off topic then we won't be left with a derby". Or something like that.

Styles, how is this sub off topic?
Freaking awesome got my vote.

The original rejection was "Biohazard's effects on human beings is not at a middle school level of science". And since it wasn't changed at all why would the rules all of a sudden have changed?
Plus the rules state: "Keep it at a level you would expect walking into a grade school gym to judge a kid's experiment."
I know I'm probably coming across as a crotchety old man, but it does bother me a bit that there are some who follow the rules and there are those who sidestep them without any repercussions.
I'm really not crotchety, although I probably am a bit older than many on here.
Re: The Prince Charming Theorem
This is adorable I think the frogs are acting animal-like enough for sure. I think the text is also incidental enough because the concept would still be pretty clear without it. Maybe I'm a little bias but woot would have to be pretty picky to reject it for the frogs... the text would be more understandable. I hope it stays in the race, though!

I really like the look of the balloons. Good one!

Hi there, I'm just doing a TEFL course and would like someone to just check over my lesson plan and tell me if it's OK..... Here goes:
Level: Elementary / young adults / group of 8
Lesson Length: 45-minutes
Objective: Asking for, giving and understanding directions.
Target Language:
Expressions for giving directions; It's next to the bank on Pine Street.Expressions for 'I want'; in the mood for, feel like, fancy, wouldn't mind. Introduce embedded questions(Noun Clauses) Can you tell me where the Bank is? Can you tell me where I can get a coke? Other important expressions; you can't miss it, I'm lost, right in front of you, it's on the second floor.
Assumed Knowledge:
Prepositions of place and common locations in a town.
Anticipated Problems:
Confusion with left and right.Using the wrong prepositions e.g. it's at the left side instead of it's on the left side, it's before the bank instead of it's in front of the bank.
Revise prepositions at the beginning of the lesson correcting any mistakes and writing positions on the outskirts of the board (left, on the left side of the board ect.)
Preparation and Aids:
Partner A Activity Sheet
Partner B Activity Sheet
Restaurant Guide
Town Map
Giving Directions Pair worksheet
Cloze activity worksheet for homework
Stage Activity Interaction Timing
1. Revision: prepositions of place; ask students "does anyone know where my marker is?, who can tell me where John is sitting?,... where the bookshelf is. Then ask the last student to answer to ask the next question about objects or people in the classroom until everyone has spoken. T-S S-T 5 Mins
2. To reinforce the prepositions of place I would get the students to come forward one by one and tell them where to stand e.g. Tom can you stand behind my deck please, Lisa can you stand next to Tom on his right, Peter can you stand in front of the board to the left of Tom.... When everyone has a position I would ask them in turn to say as much as they can about their positions e.g. Lisa says, I am standing to the right of Tom, behind your desk, Mary is in front of me and Bruno is on my left next to the board. This confirms they understand my directions and elicits as many prepositions of place when students explain where they are. T-S S-T 7 Mins
3. Pre-class exercise for Target language:Divide the students into pairs, hand out the town map from the previous lesson. Ask students to ask each other where certain locations are e.g Student A: can you tell me where the bank is please? Student B: Yes, It's on Pine Street next opposite the police station. I would go round the class monitoring and noting any mistakes to correct as a group in the next stage. S-S 2 Mins
4. Ask the students to choose one of the buildings and then ask another student (other than his partner) where it is?I would write question and answer form on the board e.g. Q: Where is + building name?A: It's on + Street name + preposition + building name. S-S 3 Mins.
5. Introduce a small Role play using a tape recorder. Ask students questions about it e.g. What is the text about? Who was the caller? What did they arrange to do? What type of food did they want to eat? Which restaurant did they choose? Where is the restaurant? Listen to the text another three times so students have time to understand the text and answer the questions. T-S 4 Mins
6. Main Exercise: Divide students into two groups: callers and receivers. Callers get the Activity sheet B plus the Town Map and the receivers get the Activity Sheet A plus a Restaurant Guide. Callers 'call' the receivers and ask them out to dinner. The receivers suggest a food type and a restaurant and gives directions on how to get there. Callers record the location on the map and the restaurant details on their activity sheet. S-S 10 Mins.
7. As a fun element and to get movement back into the students I would get them all to stand up and move the desk around in the room to resemble the town plan. Then form new groups: Angels and Mortals. The mortals close their eyes and the angels have to direct them through the maze of desks without touching them and not allowing them to bump into anything. S-S 8 Mins
8. Hand out a Cloze Activity Sheet, go through the first couple of points together and set the rest for homework along with writing a short role play using the form used previously in the lesson . T-S 5 Mins
Sorry the table didn't copy so well, but I hope you can still read it properly and give me your advise.

ATHENS, Ohio - Playing without point guard Cedrick Lindsay for the second-straight game, Richmond led by two with 14 minutes to go but Ohio finished off the Spiders 73-48 Saturday.The Spiders (4-2) were led by junior forward Derrick Williams who scored a game-high 17 points on 4-of-5 shooting from the floor while grabbing six rebounds. Senior guard Darien Brothers added 16 points behind 4-of-5 shooting from deep, while sophomore Kendall Anthony chipped in 15.
Imposing his will in the paint, Williams was a force for the Spiders in first half, helping lead Richmond to a 30-27 lead over Ohio at the half. Williams scored 14 points in the first 20 minutes, going 8-of-11 from the free throw line. While Williams controlled the inside, Brothers was attacking from the outside, hitting three 3-pointers in the first half.
In the second half, Ohio seized control of the game thanks in part to a 22-6 run over a 10-minute span. The Bobcats went on to defeat the Spiders, 73-48, in Athens.
Redshirt freshman Alonzo Nelson-Ododa had six rebounds and a pair of blocks for Richmond, while senior Greg Robbins also had six boards.
The Richmond Spiders men's basketball team will return to the Robins Center on Wednesday, November 28 when the team will host in-state rival William & Mary at 7 p.m. The game will be part of a doubleheader at the Robins Center, with the Richmond women's basketball team playing North Carolina A&T at 4 p.m.

Users hoping that Microsoft would bring back the Start Button with the Windows 8.1 update are going to be disappointed.
Instead, Microsoft will offer something called a Start Tip, a Windows logo that appears when you hover the cursor over the lower-left corner. When you click on it, it takes you to the Start Screen.
Microsoft says this update will unify the experience between Desktop Mode and Metro/Modern Mode by allowing you to select the same background for both.
The Start Screen will feature a variety of tile sizes that will make it easier to arrange the the tiles the way you want them. Microsoft says people complained that they were accidentally moving the tiles around, so now you'll have to press and hold or right-click to move the tiles around.
They've also added the ability to filter apps by name, date installed, most used or category. Newly installed apps will no longer automatically turn up on the Start Screen. Those apps will be displayed under "new" and you can choose whether or not you want to pin it to the Start screen.
Users will also have the option to boot to alternate screens. Microsoft gives the example of booting to the list of your apps, though many users will probably choose to boot directly to the traditional desktop mode.
Microsoft is changing the Search Charm, not only will you see results for apps, settings and files, you'll also get results from Microsoft's Bing search engine. Microsoft says they're trying to give users one place to search for everything, but you will not be able to search with another provider without opening a browser. So if you're searching in Windows 8.1, you'll be searching with Bing whether you want to or not. My first impression is that it's going to make you filter through even more results to find what you want and that it will drastically increase the number of users for Bing.
Microsoft is very proud of the connectivity to the Microsoft SkyDrive. The new SkyDrive app will allow you access files from your device or in the cloud and Microsoft says files are accessible even when offline, though obviously only files you've saved to the device. Microsoft says that when you log in to your Windows 8.1 device with your Microsoft account (your Outlook.com account by default) that your device "magically becomes personalized with your settings and apps," making it easy to set up a new device.
Other changes include the ability to use the camera without unlocking the screen, an improved Photos app and variable sizes for snap view.
The update to 8.1 will be free to Windows 8 users. Microsoft didn't give an exact release date, but said 8.1 will be available later this year.

An Ahh-Haa Moment: Our April Green Biz Interview with Clean Conscience
For Corie and Jerry Thornton, being green is a holistic pursuit. With their reusable bags designed to help you avoid disposables when you go shopping, they've also created a business that uses recycled materials for its made-in-the-USA manufacturing.
"We are very confident that green is here to stay," says Corie. "Americans can do a lot domestically to help us move towards a sustainable society and economy. Our philosophy is that we should do our part in keeping the US green first. If we are strong at home, we will have the strength, resources and capability to help others either by setting an example or sharing in the fruit of our efforts."
Green America: What does your business do and what are your most popular products?
Jerry Thornton: Aah haa! is the parent company of Clean Conscience products, located in San Rafael, California. Our business is about greening-up America, both environmentally and economically. We fabricate and sell eco-friendly reusable bags for retail and wholesale. We are focused on using repurposed materials, mainly recycled post-consumer PETE plastic bottles and recycled cotton canvas.
The "I'm Made in America" canvas bag has been a popular item, as well as our Lunch Bags and Suburban Shopping Bags. For business customers, we sell at lot of custom logo printed bags for trade shows and promotions.
We sell retail through our online store www.CleanConscienceGoods.com and also through Clean Conscience Bags on Amazon.com.
What makes Clean Conscience a sustainable, green business?
Jerry: Clean Conscience Goods is about un-wasting, recycling, and repurposing waste to help clean and green our earth, not just in lifestyle ways, but also in bringing awareness to green economics. Our goal is to inform, promote consciousness, and find ways that will help create a cleaner, greener and more productive America. We do this in three ways:
1. To clean, we are un-wasting: by conserving our resources and promoting the benefits of recycling waste.
2. To green, we are re-purposing: by using recycled post-consumer plastic bottle trash that's been converted into beautiful fabrics that we use for our bags.
3. To support, we are hiring America! Our products are made domestically using local resources that help green our jobs and economy.
What motivated you to start Clean Conscience?
Jerry: We are a husband and wife "home-grown" company. We are both retired from our professions (architect and management consultant). Around the early 2000s we heard about the plastic island floating in the Pacific Ocean and the massive amount of plastic trash that ends up littered around parks and our oceans. It was also at a time when recycling facilities were not quite established in our communities, so plastic trash accumulated and ended up in our landfills.
We observed the flight of our industries to overseas companies and it was impossible to find "Made in the USA" products when we shopped. Despite the booming global economy, US companies were shutting down and jobs were being lost. We also started having grandkids at that time, and naturally we started to foresee the kind of future these children will have. We stopped, thought, and bothered to ask the question: What is in store for the future of our grandchildren if the environment is polluted and jobs are scarce in the US?
With Corie's business brain and my design background, we started designing ways to raise consciousness to what was happening. How can we bring this awareness to help keep the earth and America clean and green – both environmentally and economically? We thought of sending flyers, printing posters, and so on. At the same time, the issue of plastic bags was also escalating in the community. That became our aah haa moment, and our company, Aah Haa! was born. We decided to give it a shot and launched a reusable canvas bag with the "I'm Made in America" slogan that we gave to our friends and family. Some people thought we were crazy because they felt no one would care where things were made nor about the issue of plastic bag pollution. We obviously believed differently.
We decided to pursue this and to take it a step further by making reusable bags that are not only made in America, but also made from recycled materials. We looked for our sources in the US. Sadly, there were only very limited sources because most mills had shut down or moved their facilities overseas. It was a struggle, but we were able to find a fabric source, sewing factories, label makers, and webbing makers, mostly fighting to survive, but happy to help us make our vision a reality. With a lot of effort, we were able to source enough to make simple reusable bags.
When you look around at all the products we use, eat, play or medicate with, they are all wrapped in plastic. Lots of plastic! We believe in avoiding the use of plastic, but sometimes it is not an easy choice, as in food packaging and health/sanitation reasons. But certainly, plastic shopping bags are something we can definitely do away with. We also believe that as a consuming generation, we should learn ways to keep our planet clean and sustainable by conserving the use of natural resources and by repurposing waste so that it doesn't end up in our waste stream.
If you look at our bags, you will note a number that represents the estimated number of recycled plastic bottles used and repurposed instead of going into our waste stream. One of our slogans is "We help offset your landfill footprint, so you can have a clean conscience."
What have been some of the biggest challenges of maintaining high standards of social and environmental responsibility?
Corie: When we launched, we were aware that our products were priced higher than imported products. It was a difficult entry point, but we believed in our mission and our customers applauded the vision. Then the wave of reusable bag companies also came in droves and competition was very stiff particularly with our made-in-USA pricing.
Somewhere mid-way through this process, we also learned that our main fabric supplier was shutting down. It was heartbreaking from a fundamental point of view. This was an American family-owned, century-old fabric mill that was once a thriving manufacturer in the USA and they had to close their doors.
We were told by many to go overseas to produce. This was not a choice for us. We decided that we are going to stick to the values of our brand: to repurpose waste using recycled materials and keep production here in the USA. While this may not be most profitable business decision, we want to stay committed to our vision and mission.
What has been your proudest moment as a green business owner?
Jerry: When the phone rings and a customer says "I want your bags because your bags have a 'soul' and you are good for America". Also, when we started this concept in 2006, "Made in USA" was hardly spoken. Nowadays, from reusable bags to toys, everyone wants to see a "Made in America" product. You can actually find "Made in USA" products in stores now. We believe that our "I'm Made In America" bags from 2006 contributed to this awareness in some form. This is the reason we are still around and we are very proud of this. There was also a great story to tell when we were in a trade show. A Japanese buyer saw our "I'm Made In America" canvas bags that we were giving away as promo, and he begged to buy all of them to take to Japan. He said "Made in America" is very much loved over there. That was a very pleasant and rewarding return-on-investment.
What advice would you give to other green entrepreneurs just starting out?
Corie: Going into business is serious business. It takes a committed vision and a planned execution. Be prepared to fight the battle with the competition, economy, trends, and technology. Go into business knowing your ultimate desired goal, and understand your limitations and risk tolerance. Have a trusted and knowledgeable guide to help you create a strategy and be your sounding board along the way. Lastly, believe in your vision and stick to your values and mission.
What is the next green step you're working on right now?
Our goal is not to be a mega-large company. Because of dwindling US companies, our domestic sourcing is limited. We will continue to help our local factories stay open for business by just doing what we do – spreading the awareness and selling products made in the USA. When one of our bags sells, it supports our fabric mills, our web maker, our label maker, our sewing jobbers, and our printers. The more we sell, the more we help support our economy, keep our jobs, and help provide a sustainable future for our grandchildren.
What green product(s) can you not live without?
Jerry: BioBags; Annie's Organic Mac'n'Cheese; Method Products; Organic Valley.

********** Auction Tips, You Must Do **********
The most important thing to remember is that under the Auction system, when you buy a property, there is no cooling off period as there is when you buy 'for sale'. The Auction sale is legally binding on the day.
*** These guidelines should help you with understanding the Auction process ***
1. Do your Research
When you are looking in an area, whether buying 'for sale' or through an Auction, research the prices in that area for the type
of property that you want.Find out about the good and bad features of the area, and comparative prices to other areas.
Look at similar properties to the type that you are seeking.
2.Attend Local Auctions
It is valuable experience to attend as many local Auctions as you can to see how the Auction proceeds. Observe how people bid, and who is at the Auction. Work out people's style of bidding. The same people may be bidding against you for your property in the near future.
3.Arrange your Finances
Ensure that you have your Finance in place prior to the Auction. Establish you bidding limit. Make sure you allow for all extra
costs, eg legal, stamp duty, finance fees etc.
1. Register your Intent with the Agent
Advise the Real Estate Agent if you are interested in a property. They will advise you if the Vendor would consider sale prior to Auction, and whether any offers have been received prior to the Auction Day.
2.Establish your Bidding Limit
It is important that you set your own bidding limit. Decide what the property is worth to you based on what you can afford. To make sure you can afford a property work out the limit on your loan and add 3% to the interest rate. If you could still make the
payment then that is a very safe limit.
3.Set an Uneven Limit
Wherever possible, it pays to set an uneven limit, rather than stopping on a round number. For example, rather than stopping at 410,000, try going to 411,000. A small $500 bid could make the difference if the other bidder is close to their limit.
4.Check the Paperwork
If you are seriously interested in a property and intend to bid you should have your Solicitor inspect the Contract of Sale. It is a good idea to have a good read through all the paperwork related to the Auction beforehand.
Wherever possible, contact the Agent handling the sale and ask them to provide you with a copy of the documentation. This is normally possible in the week prior to Auction.
Read through all of the documents and always ask if you are unsure of anything. It is important to clarify details such as settlement terms, deposit and fixtures before the auction commences.
Get building and pest inspections done before the Auction.It is not possible to make an Auction purchase conditional on inspection results. Make sure that any reports or inspections have been carried out to your satisfaction before you attend the
6.Ask for Help
Many people find the Auction process daunting. Don't be afraid to ask a friend, relative or Real Estate Agent,to assist you with your bidding.
Many people ask someone else to bid on their behalf as they may be less inclined to bid emotionally and will not exceed a predetermined limit.Make certain that they have very clear instructions in writing on what they can and can't
do on your behalf - remember, there is no cooling off period with an Auction.
1.Presentation is Important
If you look like an affluent, confident property buyer, this will help convince your competition that you won't stop until the
property is yours.
Remember that it isn't always the person with the most money that wins at auction. It is the person who convinces everyone else to stop bidding.
2.Check the Contract of Sale again
On the Auction Day you should always check that your copy of the Contract of Sale is exactly the same as the original Auction Contract and that there have been no late changes.
Remember how an Auction looks from the Auctioneer's perspective. They are often looking at a large number of people who
are invariably turning around, whispering etc.
If you are standing at the back of this scene,or hidden in the shade of a tree,the Auctioneer may well miss your bid, particularly when you are bidding for the first time. Stand in clear sight of the Auctioneer and make your first bid obvious to them.
Make sure the Auctioneer understands what you are doing. Bid early, clearly and confidently, and avoid unusual sign language
that may be misunderstood. Buyers are usually reluctant to start bidding at Auction but the best policy is to bid loudly and
confidently signalling to all other bidders you intend to purchase the property or should the reserve price not be reached that you are given an opportunity in any further negotiations.
4.Keep Control of your Bidding
If the bidding is increasing in larger denominations than you are comfortable with, consider offering a lower denomination as your bid. The Auctioneer does have the right to refuse it, but there is absolutely no harm in trying.
It is important not to be drawn into a bidding war on a property you want. Emotion can lead to you paying more than you can afford and there is no cooling off period with an Auction.
5.Making a Deposit
When the property is sold at the Auction you are required to sign the Contract of Sale and pay a deposit of usually 10% or 5% on the spot. This can be paid by Personal or Bank Cheque or subject to prior approval with the Agent by Deposit Guarantee.
6.Dont be upset, if you lose the bid:
The streets are full of them and there are plenty of opportunities or auctions out there
Dont forget to claim back the 10% or 5% deposit that you have submitted

The Canisius College men's soccer team released its 2014 schedule on Thursday, highlighted by 10 home games at the Demske Sports Complex.
The Griffs open the 2014 campaign on the road at the Bert and Iris Wolstein Classic, hosted by Ohio State in Columbus, Ohio. Canisius squares off with Butler on Aug. 29 before meeting UC Davis on Aug. 31 at the tournament. The Griffs are set to play both schools for the first time in program history.
Canisius then returns home and plays five of its final six non-conference games at the Demske Sports Complex. The home opener is set for Sept. 5 against Bucknell, while the Griffs also host Bryant (Sept. 7) plus local rivals Buffalo (Sept. 14) and St. Bonaventure (Sept. 26) before wrapping up the non-conference slate with a home game against St. Francis (Pa.) on Sept. 28. In addition, the Griffs play at Robert Morris on Sept. 21 in non-league action.
The Griffs begin their quest for a MAAC Championship on Sept. 30 with a road contest against defending regular-season champions Monmouth. Last season, Canisius was the only school to defeat the Hawks during the 2013 regular season.
Canisius will also host Quinnipiac (Oct. 5), Rider (Oct. 8), Fairfield (Oct. 18), Marist (Oct. 22) and Saint Peter's (Nov. 1) in MAAC action, while playing at Iona (Oct. 11), Siena (Oct. 15), Manhattan (Oct. 25) and Niagara (Nov. 5).
The top six teams in the regular-season standings qualify for the 2014 MAAC Tournament. Four teams will play a quarterfinal on Nov. 8 at the two highest-seeded participating teams. The four remaining schools will then square off on Nov. 14 and Nov. 16 on the campus of the top seed to determine the conference's champion.
The Griffs, who return 14 letterwinners and seven starters from a season ago, have won 15 games in the past two seasons, which is tied for the most in any two-year span in the program's history.

What We've Accomplished
SJSU is proud to be a leader in campus sustainability. These are some of the projects that we've already implemented:
SJSU is one of only two CSU campuses with a large Cogeneration facility. This facility produces 6MW of electricity, steam, and chilled water.
Recycled water is used for cooling university buildings and irrigating campus grounds. Installing artificial turf at Spartan Stadium has saved 1 million gallons of water each year.
LEED-Certified Buildings
The Martin Luther King Jr. Library was designed and built to meet LEED Silver standards. All new buildings on the SJSU campus will also be designed to LEED Silver standards.
Facilities Development & Operations has a "green fleet" of 68 electric maintenance carts.
Transportation Solutions, a branch of the Associated Students dedicated to promoting alternative transportation, initiates and promotes programs to reduce auto-related trips to campus. Currently, of those who commute to campus, approximately 60% come via alternative transportation.
Waste Reduction & Recycling
SJSU has a comprehensive campus recycling program that goes beyond just cans and bottles. We also recycle furniture, greenwaste, computers and electronics, paper, packaging materials, batteries, light bulbs, and much more. In 2009, our waste diversion rate was 91% (compared to 59% in 2006)!
Spartan Shops has been moving food served on campus toward sustainability with practices such as recycling 100% of cooking oil for biodiesel and by founding Grounded, a campus eatery serving only local, organic food. See their entire sustainability program.

Here I am really psyched about learning more of the Korean martial art of Hapkido.
This is what I have found out about Hapkido:
The term Hapkido itself consists of three words which are
hap 'coordinating'
ki 'energy'
do 'way'
Let's just settle for 'the way of coordinating energy', shall we?
Hapkido is a form of self defense that uses joint locks and techniques of other martial arts.
It also incorporates traditional weapons, including the short stick, cane, rope, nunchucku, sword, and even the staff.
As a Hapkidoka (does that sound right?) you learn how to apply long and close range fighting techniques, using dynamic kicking and percussive hand strikes at longer ranges and pressure point strikes, jointlocks, or throws at closer fighting distances.
Hapkido is all about circular, non-resisting movements, and about controlling your opponent.
You learn the advantage through footwork and body positioning to get leverage, so you can avoid using strength against strength.
Hapkido was developed from Daitō-ryū Aiki-jūjutsu or a closely related jujutsu system taught by Choi Yong Sul who returned to Korea after WWII, having lived in Japan for 30 years.
This system was later combined with kicking and striking techniques of taekkyeon and tang soo do.
But back to me being all psyched about starting with Hapkido.
The latest publication of my local county's Parks & Recreation Fall Activity Guide listed a beginners' course with 8 lessons for a really reasonable fee which definitely got my interest.
So, I call the program coordinator who tells me that they needed just one more participant for the course to take place. Sounds like a plan to me!
I jump into my car and head on over to their offices to sign up.
There I am filling out all the forms as diligently as you would expect from any serious, law-abiding martial artist.
Then the program coordinator drops the bomb after I had completed all the filling out stuff:
"Sir, you are aware that this course is targeted to kids from 6 years and older?"
Well, now that he brought it to my attention, I was. Thank you very much!
While I processed this new and vital information, I asked him to tell me what the average age of the other course participants who had signed up so far.
Guess what his answer was!
"Six years old."
Well, I don't know about you guys, but that is not the kind of course yours truly wantedto get in.
I was looking for something more like what you see in the video below, just click on the YouTube link:
If you have tried Hapkido or have been a practitioner for a couple years now, let me know about your experience. I really want to know.

When is Real Estate Reported as a Business Asset on the FAFSA?
Mark Kantrowitz
September 03, 2012
For parents who are self-employed and own real estate as one of their businesses, should they list the real estate assets as their assets (since they are self-employed) or as business assets? Does it make a difference one way or other? When we listed $350,000 in property as our assets, it made a huge difference but we are not sure how to differentiate something between our own asset versus a business asset (if self-employed). — S.S.
There are two ways in which real estate can be reported as an asset on the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA): investment real estate and business/farm assets.
The family's principal place of residence and a family farm that is the family's principal place of residence are not reported as assets on the FAFSA. But other real estate may be reported as an asset on the FAFSA.
The question often arises as to whether a rental property is an investment asset or a business/farm asset. In most cases rental property should be reported as an investment asset.
For real estate to be considered a business asset, it must be used in the operation of the business, not incidental to it. Subregulatory guidance published by the US Department of Education indicates that "A rental property would have to be part of a formally recognized business to be reported as such, and it usually would provide additional services like regular cleaning, linen, or maid service." This is similar to IRS guidance concerning whether rental income from real estate must be reported on Schedule E or Schedule C of IRS Form 1040. According to IRS Publication 527, in order to report the rental income on Schedule C, the taxpayer must "provide significant services that are primarily for your tenant's convenience, such as regular cleaning, changing linen, or maid service" and "significant services do not include the furnishing of heat and light, cleaning of public areas, trash collection, etc."
It isn't always clear whether rental real estate should be reported as a business asset or as an investment asset, but there are a few good rules of thumb.
- If the rental income is reported on Schedule E, the real estate should be reported as an investment asset.
- If the rental income is commingled with the taxpayer's personal funds as opposed to a separate business bank account, the real estate should be reported as an investment asset.
- If the deed or title to the real estate is held by the business, as opposed to the taxpayer, it should be reported as a business asset. But if the business merely manages the real estate without owning the real estate, the real estate is not a business asset.
- If the business is not registered with the state and does not have a federal employer identification number (EIN), the real estate should probably be reported as an investment asset.
- If the primary use of the real estate is personal, such as a vacation home, it should be reported as an investment asset.
- Renting out a room in the family home (to someone other than a family member) does not count as a business asset, unless it has its own entrance, kitchen and bath.

Santi Cazorla says some of Spain's finest played an influential role in his decision to move to England - and he already finds it a "wonderful place to play football".
Arsenal were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw by Sunderland on Saturday, but the 27-year-old was widely praised for his superb performance in midfield.
The Spain international was delighted with his debut, and says the Premier League is living up to the praise bestowed on it by some of his friends.
"I spoke to Juan Mata, [Fernando] Torres, Pepe Reina and Mikel Arteta," Cazorla said. "They all like it here and were really positive about me coming here.
"It's a great league and it's a different challenge. There's a great passion for football here and it's a wonderful place to play your football.
"My initial impressions are really good and I'm really happy to be here. Hopefully we can have a great season this year and with any luck I'll be able to help the team achieve great things."
Cazorla is enjoying his new life in England, and entertained his new team-mates during his 'initiation' ceremony at the Club.
"Here the new signings always have to sing a song when they arrive at the Club and so I had to do it the other day, just like everyone else," he said.
"I did the Macarena. Yes, I know that Mata did the same song at Chelsea. It's quite an easy song to do and people seem to like it!"Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.
