Description: What do we know about the history, origin, design, and purpose of the SAT? Who invented it, and why? How did it acquire such a prominent and lasting position in American education? The Big Test reveals the ideas, people, and politics behind a fifty-year-old utopian social experiment that changed this country. Combining vibrant storytelling, vivid portraiture, and thematic analysis, Lemann shows why this experiment did not turn out as planned. It did create a new elite, but it also generated conflict and tension—and America's best educated, most privileged people are now leaders without followers. Drawing on unprecedented access to the Educational Testing Service's archives, Lemann maintains that America's meritocracy is neither natural nor inevitable, and that it does not apportion opportunity equally or fairly. His important study not only asks profound moral and political questions about the past and future of our society but also carries implications for current social and educational policy. As Brent Staples noted in his New York Times editorial column: "Mount Holyoke College in Massachusetts announced that prospective students would no longer be required to submit SAT scores with their applications. . . . Holyoke's president, Joanne Creighton, was personally convinced by reading Nicholas Lemann's book, The Big Test, which documents how the SAT became a tool for class segregation." All students of education, sociology, and recent U.S. history—especially those focused on testing, theories of learning, social stratification, or policymaking—will find this book fascinating and alarming.

Nicholas Lemann, a native of New Orleans, developed an interest in journalism during his teenage years. This eagerness to write was coupled with a keen interest in United States history and literature. He pooled his curiosities, earning a degree in American literature and history from Harvard University in 1976. Journalism became Lemann's main occupation, as he built his writing career through working for the Washington Monthly, Texas Monthly, and the Washington Post. In 1983, he joined the Atlantic Monthly staff. His love for American history peaked with the publication of his commentary on the African-American migration to Chicago in search of jobs and a better life. Lemann's book, The Promised Land, captured the 1991 Los Angeles Times Book Prize in journalism. His articles span many interests, from book reviews and political topics to travel stories about the Catskill Mountains and other natural wonders. He contributes many articles, not only to the Atlantic Monthly but to several other magazines as well. Nicholas Lemann, his wife Dominique Browning, and their two sons live in New York City.

And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change and become like little children,
you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.
-Matthew 18:3
There was once a Doctor, named Mad-Man Meticula, who was considered the wisest man the world had ever seen. Doctor Meticula had earned the name "Mad-Man Meticula" for how crazy he was, and also his looks; White coat, frayed gray hair, black science gloves used for science- and glasses. Mad-Man Meticula was known for his glasses. He had a very peculiar pair of spectacles that were strapped around his head and had two Microscopes protruding from were you would normally see regular lenses.
One day, while finishing up his work being a super-genius, Dr. Meticula published something in scientific journal 'The Reduction Times' about the powerful human emotion of Love: In it he claimed that love -the emotional force that poets, protesters and prophets alike all claimed is what held humanity (and the whole universe) together- was nothing but a bunch of chemicals firing in the brain. If that wasn't enough, he also said that anyone doing or believing anything based in love, was dumb.
Just after it was published, the paper was critically acclaimed by everyone who wanted to feel smart. Scientists who were friends of his threw him a party. And while he was partying, the fabric of the society slowly started to crumble as every news show, blog, and hipster coffee shop was talking about this 'scientific breakthrough'.
People started using this mans 'discovery' as an excuse not to be loyal, chaste, or honorable. In the aftermath, a lot of people cheated, lied, and got their feelings hurt- in the name of science.
Then the people who really believed in love got upset. The Poets sent him several verses about how he was wrong, and begged him to see the glorious shimmering truth and surreptitious beauty of love in the cosmos. They told him that continuing down this deceitful path would make everyone forlorn and morose and… I could go on but you get the picture, poets'll talk all day if you let them.
Dr. Meticula read through everyone of the letters looking for something solid to critique, but decided to respond to them by taking scissors, and cut up there sentences into a confetti of parts of speech, and mailed them all back to them with a note saying "these were all just a bunch of silly words."
The Poets, being composed mostly of wimps, got all willy-nilly and spent the rest of their days writing stanzas over being Smitten by Mad-Man Meticula's Witty Hand of Might.
After the poets were defeated, the hippy protesters quickly chained themselves outside his laboratory and swore that they would starve themselves until he declared that Love was real, and also that Love ruled the whole universe, man.
While Meticula could not get inside, he did not get upset. Instead, he went home, and came back five days later with a full course thanksgiving dinner, placed it on the sidewalk outside his office, and let his dog eat it in front of them. The Meal was so big that the dog didn't get to finish until three days later, by which time the protesters quit and went to go eat something.
One by one the Doctors enemies were defeated, and to treat himself, he decided to get some fresh air and take a stroll through the park. While strolling through, he witnessed a child playing with plastic toy soldiers. In the midst of the kids joy, after defeating the fictional green army with his stomping feet, the boy shouted "I AM GODZILLA, AND I LOVE DESTROYING ALLL OF THE THINGSS!!!!"
Now a normal person would go 'aw, thats cute,' or, 'man, that kid needs help.' and walk away minding there own business. Not the Doctor. He just could not let this go. Never having dealt with children before, he did not know how much of a mistake this was.
After he went up and told the boy that love was not real, the boy stepped on another soldier and said:
"IS TOO! I CAN FEEL IT! I LOVE DESTROYING STUFF!" the war-torn child started banging on his chest and growling at the toy soldiers like the doctor wasn't there.
The Doctor replied, bending at this knees to get to the child's level, poking in with his microscopic glasses to better explain to the boy, "You can feel it in your chest only because you have chemicals in your brain that tell you to feel it. Thats a fact of science, do you take science classes?"
The boy looked at him with an angry face. "Your stoopid!!" the child shouted, and turned away annoyed. He picked up a rock and started smashing it on the toy soldiers.
"It's not stupid, it's science!" The Doctor was getting snooty. "It's a mix of serotonin and dopamine in your medula that make you have these feelings. There is nothing really there but those chemicals in your brain. You play with lego's, don't you? Well love is really just a bunch of small chemical blocks, like lego's-"
And then it happened, he didn't see it coming 'cause of his goggles were zoomed in so much. The child threw a rock at him and hit him square in the face, and broke his glasses.
Naturally, the Doctor got angry. "HOW DARE YOU!" he erupted, "THAT HURT!"
"What hurt?" said the child, playing with the toys like he did nothing at all.
"The rock you threw at me!"
"That wasn't a rock," said the child matter-o-factly, "that was just a bunch of dopabeans in your majoola."
For a second the doctor was mad- how dare this insolent child strike him with a stone!
In the midst of his anger, his brain instinctively tried to come up with a rebuttal- but nothing came out.
This was not normal.
He thought some more- but still nothing.
The Doctor had officially run out of dopabeans.
After the paradox of his beliefs had sunken in, he continued to walk the park with his glasses off, and for the first time saw love in action. A cheesy coincidence of A romantic picnic just a few minutes away, where a couple was twiddling fingers and sharing bites of food. A random bro-hug between two men in a bro-mance parting ways. A father flying a kite with his son. Birds singing songs of love amidst the trees- the whole nine yards. Now that his glasses were off, he could really see what was going on.
He began to postulate that the bonds made between these people formed with this "love" were more than just mere chemical reactions, but were in fact literal and real, and could potentially be as important as any tool or mineral resource (like the rock he'd been hit with), if not more so.
Shortly after, and after much thought, Mad-Man Meticula quit his job, and renounced all of his work in neurology, and moved to the Himalayas to be a monk. And the Godzilla child conquered the toy soldier army for the 5th time that week.
The moral to the story, if there is one, is this: Just because a man who wears fancy pants says something does not mean it can't be the most stoopidest thing you have ever heard.
Thats right; Stupid, with two O's.
Oh yeah, and some of life's biggest problems can be solved by dropping everything you think you know and just acting like a child for a few moments*. So please, before you base any of your decisions off of what someone else says, go outside and play Godzilla for a half an hour and see if it still makes sense afterwords. I guarantee you this will save you a lot of trouble in your life.
*the author does not encourage throwing rocks at strangers**, and does not accept responsibility for anyone throwing said rocks at anyone else.
**unless they really deserved it.

WHERE'S BEST TO LIVE IN NZ ETC PART 7 !!(1000 Posts)
Come oooonnnnnn MNHQ, where's our medal
Wow, AB that would be amazing, to have your mum have her own house here and be here for months at a time. And if she buys a house on Waiheke she could rent it out as a holiday house too if she wanted.
vvv the ice cream shop near us sells Jelly Tots, $2 a pack. And I'm sure Bramptins in Browns Bay get them in, are you near their shop?
Ha justa, yes we're taking over!
That's the idea, she'll probably rent it out inbetween visits.
It will be lovely but strange.
I knw se wouldn't e ere if she could choose? But feels she must be here, because sh misses the children so much.
So I've forced her hand.
So I think that will always be there.
I'm pretty sure she wouldn't ave even ever holidayed in nz if not for us.
She loved Sydney, much more her!
Anyway, that how it is.
But I'm sure it won't be long before im reminded about all of the above!
And I wonder how dh will cope with his mil on the same island for monts!!
Vvv..I hope your all better soon
I hadn't even thought of Bramptins, WSS, thanks! Shall investigate tomorrow.
I know the current thinking is that antibiotics don't do much for ear infections, but once again I've seen how that doesn't seem to apply for C. Only 2 doses in and she's obviously improving (slowly!). I'm really hoping we don't get a re-run of last winters endless ear infections. Although at least they are slightly easier to spot, now that she sits up, screams and points to her ear shouting "ow, there"
AB - if your DH needs comforting on the MIL-proximity issue, you can share with him DH's predicament. All going to plan
and when we win the lottery we will be living next door to my parents when we move back to Ireland. Permanently
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
Not sure if it will help but we were told by a GP when ds2 kept getting recurrent ear infections to use saline nasal spray - it apparently keeps the nasal/ear passage clear and helps stop infections. He also showed 'us' how to blow his nose - hold one nostril closed and blow in short bursts through the other again to clear the passages. Hey whether it's a fluke or 'placebo effect' but I think it works = might be worth a try. DS2 is of course older and not sure about getting spray up the nose of those younger???
doing the rounds on facebook so you might have seen it but hilarious. Having said that he needs to try cattle class
I am just loving this site:
especially: This is terrible, but I'm afraid there is no obvious solution.
You must offhandedly announce "I'm just going outside, and I may be some time", then nobly go and quietly die of hunger in a ditch.
As you can tell I am mad busy with work but my head is in Vanuatu - only 2 sleeps to go Only hoping they let us on the plane - maybe they will have a quarantine section at the back for the sick families.

What is a spiritual director? (And where can I get one) buzz feed is addictive
Hi girls! Your links on FB made me giggle - I was reminded of my mum, who is totally the type to desperately hang back on a crowded street to avoid having to - heavens above - strike up a conversation with an acquaintance, or indeed friend!!
AB - that's amazing news about your mum's thinking re Waiheke - it's what my parents would consider doing, I think, if we went to NZ or Oz - come out for several months a year, while they are still active and healthy. I refuse to think about the longer-term - we have some heart-rending cases in our Hospice where faraway relatives have to make impossible choices about when to come back, for how long, etc - so, so difficult.
justa - great news re your spiritual director - I'm with frik - I totally want one too I remember you talking about your UK one in the past and it must be so good to have found the right person. I once called up our local vicar (whom I had seen at the kids' school, guitar in hand, haha) and told him I had many questions of a spiritual nature and could we meet - he was a bit taken aback, but gamely 'took me on'. We had a couple of walks-and-talks and he lent me some books. At no point did he offer to become my life-time SD though <crestfallen> Interestingly, as far as I could see he was a Buddhist (like most of, but not all of me ) in disguise, you would like him, justa.
Hmm - I seem to have digressed
Have an amazing time in Vanuatu sibble
penguin I loved your description of 10pm being the penguin midnight hope the job's going well.
Did my first GP shift in over 18 months on Monday. 'Twas enormously stressful. I had forgotten how goddamn terrifying it all is. The potential Missing Of Important and Possible Life-Threatening Nasties, I mean. Anyway, on the topic of ABs for ear infections - I know!!!! All the guidelines bang on about how they don't work, they only shorten the episode by about 4 minutes, etc etc. Hundreds of studies have shown this, apparently. Meanwhile, back in real life...
Oh well done you meerkate, going back to work after being away for ages is HARD. When i started back to work when DD was three, for the first week I was in a permanent state of panic. But that panic where you look all normal on the outside and it's screaming burning inferno of hell inside. Good times! It did only take a little while to wear off though.
Speaking of working, I have been approached by a company asking if I am interested in a job. First off that's a big deal because I had been pretty sure there was no way I would get a job here directly in my field, so, wow. Secondly, it's an industry referral, they didn't have any job openings as such but are very keen on my specific skill set. BUT DH and I had agreed that I wouldn't work for a year while we settled in. (Well actually the deal had been that whoever got work first, the other parent wouldn't work for a year, DH just got employed first). And now I'm scared that if I don't jump on it the offer won't be there in a year, even though they have intimated that whenever I am ready, to just let them know.
Actually, that's a big fat lie. The real truth is that I am just so shit at being a stay at home parent and I haven't made any friends and I am so fucking lonely that work seems like this bright shining life line thrown from the roiling clouds of self doubt and loathing.
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
frik Do whatever is going to make you happy. When we moved here we moved so I didn't have to work. I did playcentre, playgroup, mainly music etc etc.... slowly went mad. I wasn't cut out to be a full time SAHM. I was approached about a job - took it, albeit part time (they wanted F/T I negotiated) and havn't looked back. We have to be happy for the family to be happy, if that's staying at home - great, if that's working in some capacity - that's great too.
It sounds like the Universe has sent you something???
Oooh no frik - I have never been out of work for 18 months! I was just concentrating on hospice work and taking time out of GP for a while. I'm going to combine the two now, principally to keep my longer-term options open, especially if we move abroad, but am still going to mainly be doing hospice work - which I vastly prefer.
I wouldn't hesitate to take this job, frik - there is no reason to stick to the original 'one of us MUST have a year off work' resolution if it no longer seems necessary or helpful, surely? I feel that work offers a way in, in a new place I mean - a parallel way into friendships and a social setting to that offered by one's kids' school or kindy. I have had that awful feeling of isolation and homesickness and loneliness, I know it well. I think work can be an important part of the solution, myself. Especially if it's part-time and still allows important dollops of family time (and me-time )
justa - are you serious? I assumed you had to be in the ministry to truly have a SD!
PS frik - SAHM-ing: nobody could be more shit at it than me we shall compare notes one day on that beautiful sunset-viewing platform of a deck of yours one of these days
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
Frik - our plan when we got here was that I'd SAH with the 2 DDs until DD1 started school (January to August), and then with just DD2 until I could start Uni in February of this year.
DD1 was enrolled in kindy within a week of us moving into our house . And by March I was having conversations with the Uni on whether I could 1 course starting in July. I ended up doing 2, and DD2 went into crèche 6 months earlier than planned.
As a result I am (mostly) sane, get to have adult conversation during the week and haven't collapsed in a jabbering heap mumbling about playdoh. I even bake with my children on occasion
Best laid plans and all that...
Meerkate - I think you must have gone to the same GP training session as my doc here As she wrote out the prescription she muttered something about guidelines and how it had worked so well for DD last time that there was no harm trying again
vvviola hahaha - yes, we were sitting next to each other, eyes rolling heavenwards on a regular basis throughout the lectures!
justa that's really interesting. I will think about it. Thank you
Beautiful morning here and set to be scorching (erm - by British standards! 26,27 C) all weekend, hurray!
A job has come up in Perth...would have to get used to 38, 39 all over again, not to mention 44 C...bloody hot place. I did love the winter, spring and autumn there though I wish I didn't have the standard burn-prone Anglo-Saxon skin, I really do - already use factor 50 for the UK's weedy sunshine, there's nowhere for me to go, on that front!!
Back soon - must get to work!
Frik, what does your OH think about the job? There is no point passing it up if you all feel it could be a good move.
I've spent 4 years doing some contract work but mainly convinced I would never properly work again due to lack of jobs in my area and an ill timed move and maternity leave. I'm 4 weeks in and the world feels an entirely different place.
Although I did have a slight wobble yesterday.
Also, the NZ job market is small. Auckland is smaller. Tauranga must be even smaller. If this job is of interest it would be worth considering as another may not come up for some time. I have been very lucky in negotiating a 4 day week. Perhaps you could request a 2/3 month lead in too? Some people here have to give that much notice. Recruitment would likely take a few weeks which would mean you probably wouldn't be far off a year anyway.

On President's Day, the memorial to the founding father, George Washington.
555 feet, 5 and 1/8 inches in height. Up until 23 August 2011, you could actually venture inside the monument and take a trip up to an obeservation deck. However following an earthquake South West of Washington DC, during which several visitors were injured, the interior of the monument was closed and is currently undergoing restoration
The construction was completed in two phases, one private (1848-1854) and one public (1876-1884). If you look closely you may see the change in colour of the marble used in the two phases.

The Mind of the Universe, written by a philosopher and physicist, provides a study in which a competent presentation of physical discoveries is combined with a rational search for philosophical presuppositions of science. An important contribution to the dialogue between religion and science, it will inspire new attempts at bridging science and philosophy in their common search for the hidden meaning of new scientific theories. The explanatory patterns presented in this book will offer scientists, philosophers, and artists a philosophical unity on the topic, so important for discussing a holistic and consistent worldview.

PARIS (AP) Peter Joppich of Germany won his fourth individual foil world title on Sunday, defeating Sheng Lei of China 15-11 in the final at the World Fencing Championships, and Gerek Meinhardt of the U.S. shared the bronze.
Joppich fell to his knees at Paris' Grand Palais after regaining the title he previously won in 2003, 2006 and 2007.
In the women's competition, Elisa Di Francesca won an all-Italian final to claim her first world title with a 15-11 win over Arianna Errigo.
Meinhardt tied for third with Yuki Ota of Japan. Meinhardt gave the United States its second medal after Mariel Zagunis retained her individual sabre world title Saturday on the opening day of competition.

PORT MacDonnell resident Ken Jones continues to play a key role in preserving the environment around the South East with his involvement in the Southern Ocean Coastcare Group.
Living most of his life around the Limestone Coast, Mr Jones began his mission to protect the natural world at a young age.
Becoming a leader in his field, Mr Jones received the Conservation Council SA Unsung Hero Award last year, honouring 50 years of commitment to the environment.
"I've always been interested in caring for the country, removing litter off beaches and monitoring migrating shore birds," he said.

Women's Run Tight
We have had such a fantastic response to our running line - Femme Run Short, Capri and Knicker - that we added our second run pant after the first blew out of stock! Made of a comfortable, technical stretch fabric that is breathable and flattering. Wide waistband (2 3/4-3 1/2 inch depending on size) is lengthens look of waist while reduces look of backside. Curvilear seam lines accent in the right places while 5 inch tight-to-the-ankle cuffs keep the pants in place, and lengthen the look of your legs (though we think your legs are perfect already!)
What else is great about these pants? They can be worn for running, hiking, cycling (add our seat pad for $20 and you are set for long rides as there is no pad in these), spinning and just to lounge around. They will become your go-to pant! No pilling, no falling apart after washes. Spend the money up front and they will last!
We are certain you'll look great in them and you'll love them! They're even a great gift for all women in your life because there is larger variance than some of our other products.
Inseam lengths:
Small: 24.5" (62.25cm)
Medium: 25.5" (64.75cm)Large: 26.5" (67.25cm)
Outseam lengths:
Small: 31.5" (80cm)
Medium: 32.5" (82.5cm)
Large: 33.5" (85cm)

Shrimp & Linguini Fra Diavolo
Recipe by Katchick
Spicy recipe sure to please. This version is spicy. Not too much, not too little. My family loves it! I've altered this recipe from a recipe I tried from Food Network.
Top Review by sbera007
This was really easy and very good. I cut down on the onion because I am not a big fan of them. I also added a jalapeno because we like it hot! Also used precooked shrimp b/c we were to lazy to devein the shrimp (added in the pasta step; next time would add the last minute b/c the shrimp was a little tough). This is a very versatile recipe that I look forward to experimenting with. Reviewed for PAC Spring 2009.

Should I have my canines removed? (photos)
How bad will my profile change? Will removing canines improve my smile and self confidence?
Doctor Answers 1
Canine extractions?
{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
{{ voteCount >= 0 ? '+' + (voteCount + 1) : (voteCount + 1) }}
I would not recommend removing the canines. The canine teeth help maintain the arch form and upper lip support. Typically first or second bicuspids are removed if extraction therapy is indicated. I would recommend having a consultation with an orthodontist and discuss treatment recommendations and your concerns with any potential profile changes.
I hope this information was helpful.

In the simplest terms, it is the understanding that sentences are made of words, words are made of syllables, and syllables are made of phonemes. Phonological awareness is a broad term that can easily be broken down into four levels.
