In seriously worrying about the future of state education in this country?(38 Posts)
As a teacher, and a mum, I'm worried. Part of me thinks I'm being unreasonable worrying, as surely things will turn out ok in the end. Part of me, having read the changes that academies bring (not having to follow national curriculum, no standard pay and conditions for teachers, influence by sponsors who will presumably have their own agendas, no LEA support so if the roof springs a leak, or a sink hole appears...) is really concerned. I am considering looking for a job in private education so I can get a reduction in fees and school my children that way, something which makes me sad as I have really enjoyed working in state schools, making a difference to children who don't have much support at home, seeing them grow and achieve their goals. We were planning on buying a house in an area with good schools. Now I think maybe we should save our money and just buy a nice house somewhere less expensive, then put the extra by for schooling.
So - aibu worrying this much? Do you think it will be ok? (Hoping desperately to be told it will be...)!
It seems illogical to make a stand against the greater independence (and freedom from LEA control) if academies/free schools by thinking (as you said in OP) of going fully private.
Are there any LEAs which are resisting academisation and still opening schools under their own control? As you say you can move, maybe those such areas are the places to head to.
Didn't I hear someone saying the other day on R4 that the system has been in decline for decades?
Now I've only been in the system a short while (trained 06/07, taught two years then left to have DCs) but I do remember loving teaching those in most need, that I will agree with. Probably because, as an NQT and such, I got given the lower ability classes and so saw how easily the rot sets in early.
However, I think that the kids at the lower end of the spectrum don't necessarily come from the 'disadvantaged working class'. I taught a yr 11 boy, who was perfectly competent, even good in parts (excellent when given free reign) but whose behaviour and attitude meant that he got sent out more often than not and ended up failing my subject and most of his others. His father, as I understood it, a middle-class businessman, never once returned my phone calls to discuss how we could work together to help his son. I had many phone calls and several meetings with ordinary, working class 'disadvantaged poor' and found most of them more than willing to help their children do as well as they could in school. Those were the children who got something out of their time in class, even with an inexperienced newbie like me.
If we're going to worry about the future of our schools we should look at attitudes at home towards education, not just government policy and teaching standards. They all work together to form a basis for children to love to learn, which they will then take outside the classroom and follow through in their adult lives. I have a theory that smaller schools will improve things somewhat, in helping to improve behaviour, so improving the actual time spent teaching rather than just herding cats. But it has been pointed out to me that some large schools have had very good records of behaviour and grades. These schools did tend to be full of kids whose parents and teachers cared.
Sod the policy makers, whatever colour, they'll screw it up somehow. But if the community can work together it'll produce the next generation in a way we can be thankful for. If parents go around saying, 'nuffin' to do with me, mate, it's all the government's fault', then what hope is there for any of us?
<puts soap box away and goes in search of TES to catch up on what's been happening recently>
So can you please say for those that are not teaching - what do children get in independent schools that is so much better than state schools and what is so dire about academies?
From a teacher's perspective, independents tend to have a lot more professional trust in their staff and value the importance of developing the whole child rather than being obsessed by exam results and Ofsted ratings. You also tend to have less disruptive pupils (although it really depends on the school). Oh and the holidays tend to be better too .
I think that allowing academies freedom from the national curriculum will help to raise standards. In the past schools have been in far too much of a straight jacket, its ridicolous to expect an MLD special school and a grammar school to follow the same curriculum.
I am glad that GCSEs are being got rid of. The amount of dumbing down has made it hard for our children to complete against immigrants in the workplace. Science at secondary schools have been a disaster. I am glad that they are actually going to learn proper maths and science rather than sitting discussing "issues" with the "21st century science" curriculum which has been taught in many schools.
I am not sure what to think about the dismantling of local authority control. However many academies are forming federations which are similar to an LEA. The big issue that I can see is making sure that every district has enough places. Unfortunately free schools are often set up where there is already a surplus of places.
Many of these changes are completely untested. It is too much too quickly.
Standards (compared internationally) in UK schools have been falling for at least 15 years. Something, other than just throwing money at the problem (already tried by last government) has to be done. Current government is implementing changes started under previous one. It looks like all 3 parties have concluded that they might help.
One difference I have noticed between state and independent sectors (from anecdotal evidence and a fairly small sample size) is expectations. Several friends with DCs at state schools have complained that DCs have been encouraged to drop subjects they find difficult. Friends using independent sector report that DCs are encouraged to try ever harder and are given support for subjects they find hard.
'its ridicolous to expect an MLD special school and a grammar school to follow the same curriculum.'
Well fortunately they don't in the sense that schools are expected to meet the needs of their pupils by differentiation. All special schools that I have encountered have a curriculum that is quite different to what I teach in mainstream.
The national curriculum is quite broad in its current spec. Itis a minimum requirement, so if schools want to teach things in addition they are perfectly entitled to.
What constrains us most is tests and the relentless results-driven culture. I teach year 6 and a large part of what I do sadly is teaching children to pass a test rather than developing deeper-level knowledge and skills. Academies have exactly the same pressure on them in this respect as community schools.
'Standards (compared internationally) in UK schools have been falling for at least 15 years'
I know what you are trying to say, but i think you need to word it more carefully! Standards aren't falling in the UK, what is happening is more countries are being included in international comparisons and many countries are improving at a faster rate. However as I said in an earlier post the difference between us and many other Western European countries is actually negligible. Again I'm not saying that we shouldn't strive for improvement, but that the situation is not as dire as the media (and government) often portrays.
You are worried about the future?
From what I have seen the problems are in the here and now... Children have been being failed for years and years...
I have no idea if the changes will make things better but something has to change.
not having to follow national curriculum, no standard pay and conditions for teachers, influence by sponsors who will presumably have their own agendas, no LEA support so if the roof springs a leak, or a sink hole appears...)
But is that not the same of prviate schools?
sparkly you've just confirmed why I left teaching last year. I miss the kids like hell, but you are bang on about the rest of it. So, so, so depressing. So bunnylove you may be right.
I'm only supposed to be on a 2 year SAHM break. The way things are, I honestly don't know if I want to go back.
I'm not a teacher but a first time mum. I'm so very very worried about the direction of our education.
My LA is saturated with faith schools and a couple of grammars (the only one my ds could apply to has a catchment area of the entire nation). country).
It's touted as giving people more choice. Oh yeah?? Who in particular?
I'm from a multiracial and multi faith background. The last time I looked (and I'm a middle aged woman) the way we did it was to be MULTICULTURAL. So now I'm supposed to sign my kid up to the ethos of one particular religion?. I sometimes feel I'm the only person who thinks this is bonkers. It's not the way I grew up.
I couldn't care two hoots about what faith (if any) is taught in which school. Just the fact my son is excluded precisely because he's truly multicultural. Yet my tax is going to fund an increasing amount of school places my ds doesn't have access to because he's not of the right cultural fit. What an odd way of school selection.
My dcs have to take on one particular bit of their ethnicity just to get a f'cking school place in our community? Goodness.
We all want more for our kids that we have but I can confidently say my ds has far less opportunities within our state education system than I had back in the 1980's and the way things are going he won't get to a decent uni like I did for love nor money. Quite a bit of this has to do with selectivity down to ethnicity (aka faith schools) and the rest down to our increasing divisions in society.
I'm disgusted and I'm also scared.
Very reasonable OP in my opinion.

Lava released during volcanic activity builds up earth's surface.
Volcanic belts form along the boundaries of Earth's plates.
At plate boundaries, huge pieces of the crust diverge (pull apart) or converge (push together). As a result, the crust often fractures, allowing magma to reach the surface.
Most volcanoes form along diverging plate boundaries such as mid-ocean ridges and along converging plate boundaries where subduction takes place.
Along the _____________________, lava pours out of cracks in the ocean floor, gradually building _______________________.
Eastern seaboard, new states
rift valley, new mountains
Many volcanoes form near ________________ plate boundaries where oceanic plates return to the _____________________.

Volcanoes often form where:
two oceanic plates collide
an oceanic plate collides with a continental plate
near boundaries where two oceanic plates collide
near converging plate boundaries where oceanic plates return to the mantle
Through subduction, the older, denser plate sinks beneath a deep-ocean trench into the mantle. Some of the rock above the subducting plate melts and forms magma.
Because magma is more dense than the surrounding rock, it rises toward the surface.
When magma breaks through the ocean floor, it creates
Resulting volcanoes formed along a deep ocean trench are called a

Volcanoes occur where an oceanic plate is __________________________ beneath a continental plate.
Some volcanoes result from "hot spots" in Earth's mantle.
A volcano forms above a hot spot when water erupts through the crust and reaches the surface.
A hot spot in the ocean floor can gradually form a series of volcanic mountains.

Malware Hides Behind 'Angry Birds Space'12/04/12 at 04:04:30 pm
All the time we should be very cautious. Everything that comes from an unknown source should be treated dangerous no matter how inviting it may seem. Malwares and viruses are usually hidden from too-good-to-be-true offers but in the end, it will just lead you to opening your portals for harmful links.
Just recently, an organization lead by SophosLabs analyst Graham Cluley, discover a malware that has been hidden behind a new version of the famous Roovio mobile's "Angry Birds" called "Angry Birds Space".
The game has become the game of the tech world ever since it was introduced and some people might not be able to distinguish which one is a legit version.
Basically the game is not an official Google Play (formerly Android Market) game. It came from a third party source that Cluley refused to name.
"The Trojan horse, which Sophos detects as Andr/KongFu-L, appears to be a fully-functional version of the popular smartphone game, but uses the GingerBreak exploit to gain root access to the device, and install malicious code." – This is what you get the time you would download the game from the unknown source.
Eventually the Trojan is connected to a remote website that would further install malwares into the infected Android smartphone.

Twittezens Saved The Life Of A Carjacked Man11/04/12 at 04:04:49 pm
At this era, most of us are all eyes on our smartphones or perhaps on our laptops to check our social networking sites. Our day can't be complete without checking it out.
There are even some users that are sharing almost everything that they're doing, from the food they're eating, places they're visiting and whole a lot more. Being able to have this comfort at this time, there is no doubt that with proper usage, these social networking can be the best tool to solve crimes.
Just like what happened to a man on Johannesburg last Saturday. While on the road, he was stopped by two armed men and forced him to get inside his trunk. He was fortunately carrying his cellphone and texted his girlfriend about what happened. Instead of asking help to the police, she tweeted the incident: "Be on the look for DSS041GP. my boyfriend has just been hijacked and is in the boot please RT [retweet]." One of her friends forwarded the tweet to to @PigSpotter, a Johannesburg-based Twitter user known for posting messages about speed traps and roadblocks set up by local police.
From then on, the tweet reached the authorities and 2 hours later, the car has been found and drove to a roadblock. The carjackers escaped on foot but the man on the trunk was rescued safely.
There are however downsides on this great technology. It can also be a means of spreading scams and harmful information. Everyone should be responsible on everything that they're sharing.

Apple Inc's Former CEO Gets A Star In The Entrepreneur Walk Of Fame02/10/11 at 01:10:09 am
No wonder Steve Jobs wold be included in the Entrepreneur Walk Of Fame. Among the famous businessmen in the country, Steve Jobs is one of those who has been followed all the time. His words has become the most important information for all the gadget enthusiasts.
Jobs together with Steve Wozniak, Mike Markkula, and others, designed, developed, and marketed one of the first commercially successful lines of personal computers, the Apple II series. He served as its CEO from 1997 until 2011 and stepped because of health related issues.
Kauffman Foundation launched the Entrepreneur Walk Of Fame to give credit to those notable businessmen who has brought great impact to the country's economy. Now that it is still starting, they've only focused on US entrepreneurs and considered those who had actually run innovative companies that had created a minimum of $1 billion in value.
However, it shouldn't become the only basis of the selection, maybe they should also consider its impact to the society and how it changed the lives of the people. Somehow it will give chance to those social entrepreneurs like Chris Bech who isn't creating buzz but has contributed that much help in the community that he is located.

2 Weeks Left For the Verdict15/08/08 at 12:08:13 pm
Only 2 weeks to go for the proclamation of the Busby SEO Challenge winner. We still don't know yet what will happen next. I'm on page 1 in .COM.PH and page 4 on .COM. There's only less than 50% chance for me to win this race, or be included in the top 10. But, I still do hope to out rank others and pull my position near to the top spot. I'm going up, but too slowly and not too sure. Haha!
Let's see what will happen in the last 15 days of the Busby SEO Challenge Race. I'm still busy with my Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony Video SEO project, that's why I can't compete with these tough guys / SEO Gurus in the world wide web. I failed in the last SEO Contest that I joined, but that failure thought me a lot of SEO lessons, I think this second failure will bring me another array of skills to be injected in my brain.
I admin that I didn't do my best in this contest, because even if I did there's still a very little chance to win this game. I'm not thinking negatively, I'm just thinking in a realistic manner. But miracles still happen. Let's see what happens next.
I will not rely on miracles, I will rely in the mere fact that I can still do this even if myself and my spirit is hopeless. Hehehe. Good luck to all the Filipinos who joined this race! Make our fellow Pinoys and our country proud!
It's Almost The End06/08/08 at 06:08:39 pm
The Busby SEO Challenge will soon come to its doom. We're not sure yet who will win, but for sure, there will only be one winner, unless a miracle could alter its fate and more than one winner will occur. I'm excited at the same time, not so excited because I didn't exert much effort to win this game and maybe… I'll be on the top spot for no reason. No backlinks, no bookmarks, no anything.
Only a miracle right now could pull me up to the first page of Busby SEO Challenge. As for now, all I can say is Busby SEO Challenge rocks and I'm very sleepy right now that's why I can't think of something to write. I just type in my keyboard what my fingers wants to press. My brain was not helping my hands and my hands was not cooperating with my brain. But, technically my brains still works, because without my brain, I will not be able to type this Busby SEO Challenge thing.
So, once again, good luck to all of the participants of the Busby SEO Challenge! Win or Lose, Lose or Win, Busby SEO Challenge is still Busby SEO Challenge.

I have been all over the place, and I just can't decide where to take our free week! I know, what a great problem to have! : )
I had decided on Sandals Grande St Lucian, but the air is going to be at least $600 more, and that's if I find a deal, and there's not many options out there, making it harder to find a good price. There's only two flights that get me home the same day. And once we get there, it is almost two hours to the resort. And the resort is priced pretty high, which would be a good place to use the free week, but we were there in 2010, and the price was more than $1000 less than it is now. I don't think there have been any renovations or anything like that for the price increase, have there? We stayed at La Toc that time, and that resort is more than $1000 more expensive now, too.
I would also like to give St Lucia a second chance because the last time we were there was right after Hurricane Tomas, and the island had no water, lots of roads were closed, trees were down, etc.
My other choice is Sandals Royal Caribbean. We haven't been there since 2008, it would be right near the airport, and the total cost for us to get there could be under $1000. We have always meant to go there again, but SGR is our favorite, and is usually cheaper than SRC, so we normally go back to SGR instead. So taking our free week at SRC would definitely get us there, I really liked the rooms there, and of course we could visit SMB and SCI. And I think Martha Brae river rafting is near there, too, which I would like to do.
So, it would probably be $1000 less to go to SRC rather than St Lucia. My only concern is that if we don't do St Lucia again now, we probably never will because it is unlikely it will be this cheap again (until our next free week, lol!). However, if we save the $1000 on our free week, we could use that toward a second trip next year, and I think I'd rather go on vacation twice than go to St Lucia once.
And I forgot this one big factor, there were no deals at St Lucia's liquor store at the airport!!! No Appleton 12, no Cocomania, how can I survive??? :)
Any thoughts? Thanks! :)

The New Hampshire House continues to send mixed messages about its legislative priorities. There seems to be a gap between House Republican leaders' words and their actions.
House leaders say their top priorities are jobs and the economy.
But if that's true, why in the world would they attach an amendment requiring a woman to wait 24 hours for an abortion to a bill approved by the Senate raising the research and development tax credit pool from $1 million to $2 million? Every major business organization in the state has advocated for increasing this tax credit and making it permanent. If the House had simply approved the bill, the governor would have signed it, and it would be law. Instead, by inappropriately attaching this divisive amendment, House leaders have placed this pro-business growth bill in jeopardy.
"The 24-hour wait bill requires that women receive explicit information about the fetus, the proposed procedure, medical risks associated with it and alternatives to abortion," The Associated Press reported.
What does this have to do with helping state businesses with research and development?
This is a case of House leaders' words saying they value jobs and the economy while their actions show that social issues such as abortion are more important.
Not only was this bad lawmaking, it was also bad politics.
This abortion bill already had its hearings in the House and Senate, and the Senate voted no. It's hard to believe that the Senate, already irritated with House leaders, would suddenly change its position on the abortion bill simply because the House is holding the R&D tax credit hostage. So House leaders have jeopardized a pro-business bill to advance an abortion bill that has no chance of becoming law.
This is just one more example of why the House needs new leadership.
Read the editorial here.

The United States is the world's greatest military power, but is it our job to be the world's policeman and interfere in internal affairs of other sovereign nations?
And by starting military action in Libya while we already have forces engaged in Iraq and Afghanistan, are we stretching the U.S. military, not to mention the federal government's budget, too thin?
Those are questions we think should have been thoroughly debated in Congress before President Obama made the decision to start military action in Libya without congressional approval.

Colour pay off is lacking
Purchased this expecting a pretty pink pop of colour, boy was I disappointed! Beyond subtle, weird, pastel white pink that is barely visible. The scent isn't that nice either. Basically this is an over priced lip balm, not very impressed at all.

Happy user
Love this colour to bits
I do have friends who think this colour is too light but I personally love this shade. It leaves a very light tint of pink on my lips that helps brighten up my fair yet pale looking face and it keeps my usual dry lip well moisturised.

a little disappointing
I have a benebalm and I loved it! good pigmentations and gives me a healthy red lips so I thought why not try out the pink version.. but this pink isn't as pigmented as the red one (benebalm). it kind of looks like any other lip balm but less moisturizing as lip balm. Giving the stars for the packaging and love the design though.

Catches onto dry skin too easily! Not that moisturising, just sits on the lips! Colour is not bad for a lip tint, but overall really disappointed in this product (as I always am with Benefit). Works okay when you use lip balm under it but I wanted this to work as both a balm and a tint.

I really love this balm, super moisturizing, just a hint of colour, perfect pink shade which is universally appealing on many skin tones. If you are a type of person who doesn't wear a lot of lipstick, I would recommend this as a perfect alternative.

This balm doesn't stay on for long and my lips are dry within one hour. It provides a light tint of color for a natural look. It is not creamy and doesn't really moisturize my lips. Have to re-apply every hour or after a sip of water. Will not buy again.

This balm is truly moisturizing and shade is perfect. I love Benefit products, and this is one of the must-have in their collection. Perfect to be used by ladies of all ages. I highly recommend this, even for those who are looking for gift items this upcoming holiday.

It is ok
Perhaps I have darker lip color, the pink doesnt show up well. Overall an okay product which I think there are many lip balms out there which can deliver better results for lower prices. Wont be repurchasing.

Gearpedia at Wikia
Welcome to the Gearpedia mini wiki at Scratchpad!
You can use the box below to create new pages for this mini-wiki. Make sure you type
[[Category:Gearpedia]] on the page before you save it to make it part of the Gearpedia wiki (preload can be enabled to automate this task, by clicking this link and saving that page. Afterwards, you may need to purge this page, if you still see this message).
What is Gearpedia?
Gearpedia is the mini-wiki that describes the Gear-Clans and shows info about other things such as the creator's careers and stuff, and also to talk about Yu-Gi-Oh! R-City, the fanfiction and give good info.
The Gear Clans
Gear-Chimp Clan This attributte is led by Hero, also known as the Gearchimp. The Gearchimp, Hero, entered the Chimp Attributte against his will, as he wasn't that good in dueling. As Hero leads the Chimp clan, he still feels shameful that he cannot control his clan in anything, but he's just a leader in the name, and that would be a kind of humiliating to him, by the Gear-Clans' overleader, Mare Octavius. The current members in this clan: Hero (Leader) Bigo Big (Co-Leader) Oni2 (Member)
Gear-Light Clan Led by Mare Octavius, the Gear-Light clan is open for all members in other Gear-Clans to join it and keep in their clan, as twin clan-members. However, to avoid n00blyness, Mare has disallowed the members of the Gear-Chimp clan to join his Gear-Light clan, and especially the Grand Gearchimp, Hero. The current members in this clan (mostly users of Fairy decks): Mare (Leader) Dranx (Co-Leader) Sami (Elite) Goose (Elite) Duel Fox (Member) Bigo Big (Slave)
Gear-Panda Clan As the Gear-Clans started, Dranx made his Gear-Clan Gear-Panda, and was the one to compete the Gear-Chimp clan and won at it, but currently Dranx has no much members. The members: Dranx (Leader) Sami (Co-Leader) Deadie (Member) Mare (Alliance-Member)
Gear-Admin Clan UD, started his Gear-Clan full of admins and GMs of R-City.. and the members are: UD (Leader) Kalajin (Leader #2) Biggie (Elite) Duke (Elite) Soul (Member) Mare (Semi Alliance-Member)
What is R-CityPedia? Well, it's the official place where you can know things about Yu-Gi-Oh! R-City. R-City is a fanfic created by Mare on the Duel Monsters Advanced "R" game on BYOND. The fanfiction is published about daily on the forums of DMA-R, and is currently having fans, such as Dranx and Goose.
R-City Plot
A virtual city has been opened by the Yugioh business man UD for a secret reason, while a mysterious organization called the Organization of Judgment (led by Mare Octavius) enters the city and gets stuck in in it along with the other duelists there by an unknown dark region. While the Organization seeks for power, duelists challenge them, and the challenges of the dark clan that is seeking for the "Destined Duelist" and the "Destined Duel" challenge all duelists in the city, and they are hunting every duelist that loses the duel to the shadows and make a beast out of him! So watch out, and you better read this fan-fiction!

Mare's goal is to hunt down enough members for his Organization so he can control over most of the duelists in the new virtual city opened, called R-City (or Raiders City). Mare seems like the evil one, but in fact he never allows any evils to take his place or do something without being allied with them, plus he doesn't concentrate on big goals that would harm much, he only wants to take control and be the real leader. Mare and Dranx share a "Sercet Weapon" monster when they tag-duel.

However, Dranx sometimes uses a quote for being angry or not happy, and it's "Cheese Geez!". As Dranx might sound funny by his quotes, he's not funny by his dueling skills. Dranx uses Fairy monsters, perfectly, and uses a "Secret Weapon" when tag-dueling with Mare.

Bigo Big Real Name: Barney Barnes Age: 17 From: Domino Town Clan/Organization/Society: Organization of Judgment Position: Slave Appearance: Random fat man with messy hair and slow mind. Description: Bigo is the loyal slave to Mare, however, he gets prohibited from eating due to Mare's forcing him to diet inoptionally, as Mare says: "You know.. Bigo's that one fatty boy.. if he gets skinny or at least an average weight, and wins duels, and stop staring so stupidly, I would've made him an elite." Bigo uses a High ATKs deck.
Duel Fox Real Name: Steven G. Fox Age: 19 From: Essex, EN, UK Clan/Organization/Society: Organization of Judgment Position: Member Appearance: Huge guy, caucasian, and always with a hat and tall leather coat with black clothes.

Deadie Real Name: Ryan Age: 15 From: Domino Town Clan/Organization/Society: -- Position: -- Appearance: A random teenager but with casual wear. Description: Funny, fun, and likes to have fun. Deadie is a teenager that likes to keep in action, and he always argues and laughs with Jenny Dickson on her kind-of funny last name.

Jenny Real Name: Jenny Dickson Age: 16 From: Domino Town Clan/Organization/Society: -- Position: -- Appearance: A random female teenager and with long brown hair.

More characters will be updated later.
R-City Custom Decks
Each deck includes custom cards, except Bigo Big's and Couric's + Kontatzu's. But those who have decks based on custom strategies made by the creator (me) that's a Custom deck. Mare uses a Light Guardians deck, that is good for avoiding attacks AND attacking. Hero uses an Armored Chimpanzee deck along with few monkey and gorilla monsters, and UD uses a type of Gold Warriors/Beasts. There are also other several characters that use custom decks such as Goose in Season 2, etc. etc.

Literature, have released several RPG characters and about 6 characters for fanfics free to use, and a turned-down fanfiction that was known as "Flames' Gang."
DJ Main Pain

DJ Main Pain is a DJ that focuses on remixing music (and he also points that he doesn't release much dance music to public) like Rap, Hip-Hop, Reggae, and other.

I first introduced this fun one to one correspondence game last fall as part of my autumn themed preschool unit, but the kids and I recently pulled it out for some math fun so I thought I'd share it in more detail. The general rules of this game are very simple and the idea can be used with any theme. Apple Drop Counting is a great game that focuses on one to one correspondence skills in counting, but it can also be adapted to include concepts like more and less, composing and decomposing and even subitizing.
If this is your first time, please join me regularly via E-mail in the right sidebar, Facebook, Twitter @StayAtHomeEdu, and Pinterest. For your convince, I have included some of my favorite products and resources I have used with my preschoolers. Any purchase of these products goes directly to maintaining this blog.
Here's what you need to do. Provide a themed "mat". It can be an apple tree to go along with an autumn themed unit, or it can be a fish or a car, etc. Endless possibilities. Place this mat in a tray. (This is important because it will help contain the buttons as they fall.) Give your child a handful of buttons. (Red for apples, multi colored for fish scales, nude for people in a car, etc.) Invite your child to hold the handful of buttons a few inches above the mat and then drop them.
The buttons will scatter into the tray. Some will fall onto the tree itself, some will not. Now invite your child to count the number of buttons, or apples, that are on the tree. (We don't want to count the apples that have fallen off the tree.) For an added challenge, ask your child to then point to or write the numeral of apples on the tree.
This apple drop counting game can be adapted to teach several math skills. The first is one to one correspondence. (For more information about one to one correspondence, see these activities and articles: Egg Carton Counting, Teaching Your Preschooler Addition and Subtraction, Dice and Beanbag Toss Game.) While William can do this activity completely independently, Corinne cannot, as she is just two and still learning one to one correspondence, meaning she is still learning that each number she says corresponds with only one object she is counting. I modified this activity for her by first giving her only five buttons, instead of ten. When she dropped each handful of buttons, I would ask if I could show her how to count. Then, I'd model it, pointing to each button as I said each number. Corinne then repeated what she saw me do and with a little practice she was able to repeat exactly what she saw me do, thus demonstrating a basic understanding of one to one correspondence.
Apple Drop Counting can also be a great lesson in number values, such as identifying more or less. After your child has dropped the buttons onto the tree and counted them, ask him to identify if there are more apples on the tree or off. If your child is unsure, have him line up the buttons in two rows (a row of buttons from the tree and a row of buttons not on the tree) and have him compare length.
If your child is in kindergarten or first grade Apple Drop Counting can easily be used as a tool for reinforcing the concepts of composing and decomposing certain numbers, like the number ten. To do this, have your child count the exact number of buttons to drop onto the tree. Let's say ten. Then, after each drop, ask your child to count the number of apples on the tree and record it on a sheet of paper. Let's say four. Then, have your child figure out how many apples must have fallen off the tree. Six. Together, all the apples on the tree and all the apples off the tree equal ten apples, the number with which your child began.
Finally, this game can be used to reinforce skills in subitizing, which is the ability to automatically recognize groups of objects as specific numbers, such as automatically recognizing dots on dice without having to count them. I think of it as fluency in number values. After your child has dropped the buttons onto the tree, give only three to five seconds for your child to look at the arrangement of buttons on the tree, then cover it up with a sheet of paper. Ask your child how many apples are on the tree. Count to check work. (Note: research supports introducing subitizing with familiar object arrangements, such as those on dice or in a ten frame. If your child is younger than first grade, he may struggle with the buttons falling into random arrangements.)
I hope I've given some ideas of how to tweak basic games to stretch into other math skills, and how to modify them for various abilities. I'd certainly be interested in hearing how you have used Apple Drop Counting as well!

Do not give up
I sometimes feel disappointed when i am not appreciated.Read the bible yesterday and was encouraged by it : Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. herefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people.. . Someone wrote that the world judge us by our success, but the Lord judge us by our faithfulness. I will remain faithful to those around me regardless, not by my own strength, but relying on His.

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 470913
Review Request: lv2core - An Audio Plugin Standard
Last modified: 2009-03-16 00:12:54 EDT
Spec URL: http://people.redhat.com/green/Fedora/lv2core.spec
SRPM URL: http://people.redhat.com/green/Fedora/lv2core-2.0-1.fc10.src.rpm
There are a large number of open source and free software synthesis
packages in use or development at this time. This API ('LV2')
attempts to give programmers the ability to write simple 'plugin'
audio processors in C/C++ and link them dynamically ('plug') into
a range of these packages ('hosts'). It should be possible for any
host and any plugin to communicate completely through this interface.
LV2 is a successor to LADSPA, created to address the limitations of
LADSPA which many hosts have outgrown.
Ardour and other Fedora apps will use this once it has been approved.
This is the second time I've submitted it. I dropped the ball the first time around (several months ago).
*** Bug 232465 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
I note that this still includes a .pc file and is still arch-specific. I know the old ticket was closed but there are still open questions there and it would be really nice if you could address them. Comment #14 from Peter Jones, specifically.
We should include the .pc file because packages depending on this package, like slv2, expect to find one (to test the version, I think) and there's no need to deviate from upstream.
I've added the
%define debug_package %{nil}
you suggested.
Spec URL: http://people.redhat.com/green/Fedora/lv2core.spec
SRPM URL: http://people.redhat.com/green/Fedora/lv2core-2.0-2.fc10.src.rpm
In bug 232465 comment 2 I pointed out that the package is dual-licenced: API header is LGPLv2+, data file is MIT.
=> License: LGPLv2+ and MIT
Authors's COPYING file says "BSD-style", but the licence text matches this:
It is not clear to me why neither the LV2 bundledir ( %{_libdir}/lv2 ) nor the bundle name ( lv2core.lv2 ) are defined anywhere in the lv2.h file. That means applications would need to define it themselves. Hopefully they get it right and agree on a standard path.
Home page lists a rev3 (2008-11-08) with a comment in the ChangeLog that says "unstable". Can't find any such classification of rev2.
> %files
> %doc AUTHORS COPYING README
> %defattr(-,root,root,-)
I suggest moving the %defattr one line up.
Actually rpmlint reports this, too.
> Summary: An Audio Plugin Standard
I would drop the "An ". ;)
Starting the %description with the following sentence from the home page would be an improvement:
LV2 is a standard for plugins and matching host applications, mainly targeted at audio processing and generation.
With those changes, which can be applied in pkg cvs, it's fine packaging-wise:
New Package CVS Request
Package Name: lv2core
Short Description: Audio Plugin Standard
Owners: green
Branches: F-10
cvs done.
Closed - thanks!
I believe that this package should be noarch and the .pc file should go to /usr/share/pkgconfig .
The files %{_datadir}/lv2 that are in the main package are actually devel files. They are templates to write lv2 plugins and are not needed during runtime. So only a devel package should be generated from the SRPM.
Also, I can't find the F-10 build.
Additionally, there is a new upstream version. I'm going to ask pkgdb access to fix these issues.
I opened a new bug to address the above issues.
Ref: bug 490398

Cyber Secure Institute
: 09 October, 2009
(Technical Article)
Increased risks to computer users through increase in malware attacks using social networking sites draws comment from Cyber Secure Institute Director
Rob Housman, Executive Director of the Cyber Secure Institute, has released a statement concerning the latest quarterly report by PandaLabs showing that Americans are at a greater risk from online threats than ever before. Malicious links on social networking sites such as Twitter and Facebook have helped fuel a sudden increase online threats in the third quarter of 2009.
The third quarter was a record breaking one for hackers when it came to creating new threats. From July to September PandaLabs noted over 5 million new strains of Malware. Most of these new strains were banker Trojans, which steal information such as bank accounts, usernames, passwords and credit card details from your computer and send it to the hacker.
PandaLabs found over 50,000 new forms of malware each day.
This surge was also responsible for increasing the number of infected personal computers across the globe to 15%.
Cybercriminals have also been increasingly taking advantage of social networking sites to spread the Koobface worm, which infect a user's computer and, unbeknownst to the user, use their computer to spread other computers.
The worm spreads by posting malicious links to the virus on a user's personal social networking page and also includes scareware designed to fool the user into buying phony antivirus programs.
Criminals also took advantage of search engines to spread malware, duping people into visiting infected sites by using popular search terms.
Housman said:
"Social networking links us all closer together, which in turns makes us all more vulnerable. More people than ever are using social networking. There are over 300 million people actively using Facebook and Twitter is growing at a staggering 1382% each year.
These networks are only as strong as their weakest link and one person's risk becomes everyone's risk. Hackers understand they are vulnerable to prey. Because of their sheer size, social networks have accelerated the spread of these worms. What used to take months to spread now can take hours.
Every year these criminals are responsible for billions of dollars worth of theft from American individuals and businesses, not even taking into account the amount of money these individuals and businesses spend on having the malware removed.
However, this does not need to be the case. Most businesses and individuals in America are relying on systems that are inherently insecure to protect them from cybercriminals.
Technologies do exist that can effectively protect us and those in our networks. These technologies are NIAP-NSA certified against the most sophisticated threats. The NSA-NIAP system utilizes Evaluation Assurance Levels in conjunction with the Common Criteria security profiles to grade both the security of systems and indicate the level of confidence in that grade. These levels range from EAL1 (minimal security) to EAL 7 (highly secure). Most of the IT systems that we now rely on have been certified up to EAL4+ and only for inadvertent, non-hostile and unsophisticated attacks.
The fact is these hackers are anything but unsophisticated and they are taking advantage of anything they can. According to the PandaLabs report, "Cyber-crooks' are trying to infect the maximum number of computers possible, exploiting vulnerabilities and using social engineering techniques in spam messages, social networks and search engines through Blackhat SEO techniques."
These hackers are not your proverbial kids hacking away in the basement while their parents are asleep. Many of these hackers belong to international organized crime rings. These recent growth in malware highlights the success the hackers are having and the failure of our current hack-and-patch systems.
Fortunately, there are now systems—for example Integrity Global Security and Tenix—that are certified at EAL 6+ against the most rigorous security profiles. However, we have yet to deploy them and will remain vulnerable until we do so.

• A simple, sensitive, and specific radioreceptor assay has been developed for the measurement of anticholinergic drugs in human serum. The assay is based on the competitive inhibition by free anticholinergic drugs in a 0.2-mL sample of serum with the specific binding of the potent muscarinic antagonists, tritiated quinuclidinyl benzilate, to solubilized brain muscarinic receptors. Anticholinergic activity could be detected regardless of drug structure and was quantified against atropine standards. Although the serum levels of anticholinergic drugs varied considerably in 35 patients receiving both neuroleptic and anticholinergic drugs, there was a highly significant inverse correlation between the presence of acute extrapyramidal side effects due to neuroleptics and the serum levels of anticholinergics.
Tune L, Coyle JT. Serum Levels of Anticholinergic Drugs in Treatment of Acute Extrapyramidal Side Effects. Arch Gen Psychiatry. 1980;37(3):293-297. doi:10.1001/archpsyc.1980.01780160063007

Although a 'chain' restaurant it still had plenty of character and great menu, I had the 'special' which was unusual and very tasty
(((** 24 April 2017 by Jim from Beaconsfield
I feel quite sorry for Zizzis as there was a party on Saturday night which got out of hand. The party was all women and they were very keen to stand up and sing, very loudly. The first time could be described as amusing, but I would have preferred them not to sing at all, but some of the party kept on getting up to 'sing'. The staff did their best to get the party to quieten down and the staff did apologise to the other diners. As I say, I feel sorry for Zizzis as it wasn't their fault and their only choice would be to not accept large parties but hopefully this was a one off and banning large parties may not be necessary. The meal was very good. We had a sharing starter and I had a goat's cheese pizza. It's just a pity it was overshadowed by a party of inconsiderate people.

The food was really nice, would always recommend one of thier rustica pizzas, they are really tasty. Service was a bit slow, as it took 25mins to get our starter which was just bread and olives, then a further 30mins to get our pizzas. But all in all we had a lovely meal.

James Hargood was a Manticoran citizen and merchant mariner.
A personal friend of Edward Saganami, he was in command of the freighter RMMS Prince Harold in the late 17th Century PD. When his convoy was attacked by pirates in the Carson System, its sole Naval escort, HMS Nike, commanded by Saganami, sacrificed itself to allow the freighters to escape. Hargood tried to convince Saganami to come with them, but the Commodore refused. His last words to Hargood were to tell Queen Adrienne of the pirate threat. (SI1)

Posted 10/14/2013 at 5:12 PM
Posted 4 years ago
The Taiwanese handset maker, HTC Corp. (2498) has unleashed a fingerprint sensor. HTC follows suit in the hot security technology feature stakes that Apple Inc. (APPL) has made paramount.
HTC boasts that its handset can automatically trigger an app depending on which finger is being scanned. While Apple already has put out its iPhone 5s equipped with a fingerprint sensor feature to enhance its security and help shore up security during content purchases, as of last month; HTC won't release its new smartphone with fingerprint technology till the end of this month (or perhaps a bit before).
HTC with its One Max will see the use on its smart device through with a Qualcomm Inc. (QCOM) Snapdragon processor and Google Inc. (GOOG) Android 4.3 OS, in place. The HTC One, released February has the One Max HTC's UltraPixel camera technology onboard.
An interesting aside is that Apple's fingerprint sensor is on the front, while HTC lodges their fingerprint sensor on the back, of their respective devices.

Mid-July saw the huge OutDoor trade show descend upon the town of Friedrichshafen in Germany. This is the event of the year for European climbing companies, and there are literally hundreds of brands showing off their shiny new stuff.
One of the UKC/UKH team's favourite jobs every year is checking out what the clothing manufacturers have come up with to keep us warm, dry and looking cool. There's always something interesting among the hundreds of soft shells and waterproofs on show. This report covers some of the latest developments. We have also published reports from OutDoor 2013 on climbing hardwear, packs and ropes. More to follow next week.
Haglofs a new LIM initiative which stands for 'Less is More'. The idea behind this is to make a more simple range that functions better. We looked at two jackets in the LIM range - the latest version of the down Essens Jacket and a similar model in synthetic, the Barrier Pro Hood.
New to TNF's Summit Series for Spring 2014 is the Foehn Jacket, a well-built mountaineer's waterproof shell in Gore Tex Active, a three-layer, two-way-stretch 15D nylon fabric that's exclusive to the brand for the next two years. This has all you'd expect from a climbing jacket - helmet compatible hood with a laminated brim and hidden cord locks; mesh-lined harness-friendly pockets that double as ventilating pit zips; hidden hem cords; and non-abrasive cuff tabs. The Foehn comes in both men's and women's fit, and at an average weight of 390g it's reasonably light for what you get. There's nothing groubndbreaking here, but it's tough and functional.
We liked these close-fitting soft shell trousers, which look like they'd be equally at home on a summer alpine climb or a UK hillwalk. They come in a highly breathable nylon/elastane woven fabric that gives a good four-way stretch and, say TNF, resists abrasion. Add articulated knees, an 'anatomical' lumbar cut and a very low-profile under-harness fit around the waist and you've got excellent do-it-all mountain legwear.
In spring 2013 Berghaus launched its VapourLight range aimed at ultra runners and indeed anyone who's been bitten by the light-and-fast bug. If you're counting every gram then some of the additions to the range for 2014 are worth a look, most notably the VapourLight Hypertherm mid-layer jacket (see video below) and its natural twin the VapourLight Hyper Smock.This latter started life as a humble windproof, Berghaus tell us, but the fortuitous addition of fully taped seams made it something a bit more special. At an almost-levitating weight of 110g (size L) it's billed as the world's lightest waterproof jacket. There's a deep smock-style front zip, simple elasticated sleeve cuffs, a small zipped pocket on one sleeve and a drawstring hood - and that's your lot. You don't get much for your money, but then £120 isn't a lot to pay for a waterproof jacket these days, and in any case the Hyper Smock's impressive minimalism is its real selling point. The jacket packs into an 8.5x12cm stuff sack that you'd barely notice hanging from your harness or slipped into a running pack. Gimme gimme.
Mammut's top-of-the-range Ultimate Alpine Hoody is a well thought-out and feature rich mountain soft shell, due winter 2013/14. This Gore Windstopper 3-layer jacket has flat seams for a smooth exterior finish, a longer cut to prevent the hem lifting when climbing and a generous roomy fit for maximum freedom of movement. Drawstring adjusters are internal so they don't snag, and the non-stick velcro on the wrist tabs won't catch on ropes or underlayers either. There's a helmet-friendly hood with three points of adjustment, and a high tight-sealing collar to keep weather at bay. Plenty of two-way zips and pockets too, including a multimedia pocket outlet (who really listens to their Ipod on the move? Ski dudes?). Given all this the weight is unsurprisingly a fairly hefty 800g (average), while the £260 price tag is pretty weighty too. But you do get lots of soft shell for your money, and it's clearly built to last.
One thing that caught our attention on the Nikwax stand was their new Cotton Proofing technology. Bring on those waterproof T-shirts and jeans!
Clive Allen talks you through the Caldera jacket and Lowe Alpines re-entrance into the clothing market later this year.
Travis Gaylord and Ueli Steck talk you through the modifications to the Quasar that Ueli requested that lead to the new Quasar Hybrid jacket.
Leah Crane talks about the new Nano Pro technology from Marmot with a pretty cool demo.
Liam Lonsdale talks about the lightweight Essence jacket that incorporates the new Nano Pro tech shown above.
Erik Tjerneld talks about Tierra's top end alpine climbing jacket.
Erik Tjerneld talks about the Ace pants, originally developed for ice climbing but equally at home on the hills.
Richard Bailey talks about Mountain Equipment's top end alpine climbing jacket.
Richard Bailey talks about the lightweight Micron jacket. A great just in case jacket for the hills.
Adidas are really making waves in the outdoor sector - and here we look at some of their new climbing specific products. Not technical gear here, but just 'everyday' shorts and Tshirts.
James Blay shows us the all new Wild Country clothing range. It is looking pretty smart! UKC staff are looking forward to this hitting the shops, and not long after, hitting the grit!
Kenton Cool is on good form as ever and here he takes us through three of his favurite pieces from the current Sherpa product range.
Chris Lines shows us the reversibe Hyper Therm jacket - this thing looks light! We want!
Chris Jakeman is always the true professional and here he shows us the very smart looking Fast Alpine Neo - this jacket looks the biz for all those alpine heros out there.
Mark McCarthy is on hand to give us the low down on this excellent looking piece from The North Face, but what does DNP stand for?
Chris Jakeman is back again to show us these extremely light gloves from Montane - an excellent piece to chuck in the sack - just in case!

When your skin becomes oversensitive to any number of things you may develop a dermatitis. It can be very hard to discover what is causing this itchy, dry, red and raw skin condition.
Allergies, psychological troubles (such as stress), fatigue, weather, chemicals - such as washing your hands or even working on projects which may expose your skin to harsh oils and grease, coarse clothing, even fragranced lotions can cause dermatitis.
Often times it will be trial and error to find combinations of things you will need to do to heal your skin. There are essential oils that might help with both itching and inflammation - Roman Chamomile, Lavender and Bergamot.
Others will help you deal with stress or other psychological reasons that might be causing the skin to react Lavender and Bergamot. Avoiding harsh chemicals and cleaners, would be the easiest to eliminate. Using common sense for weather changes is simple too.
Finding out if the cause is an allergy, (food or contact), may be a little more difficult. Try to avoid synthetically fragranced cosmetics and perfumes.
Using a healing oil, cream or lotion may give you the most relief. We suggest you try using an unscented lotion or base cream and add a few drops of essential oil and apply several times a day.
