Hop 'n' squeak shoes
Ach, so many things in the world, so few of them truly vital. And so many of the non-vital ones marketed directly at parents. But that thought aside, Hop 'n' Squeak shoes might be fun.
Designed to get kids up from crawling and onto their two feet (which, let's not forget, they will do eventually with or without encouragement), the shoes feature a small 'squeaker' on each sole, supposedly encouraging the child to walk. Don't worry, if it becomes irritating, the squeaker can be removed.
The shoes come in some pleasant designs for both boys and girls, and the squeak could be a fun extra, it's true.

Captive markets, particularly in the tertiary sector, mean that education publishers tend to be bigger than other media companies, even if the latter seems sexier and attracts more attention. For example, Pearson is far bigger than AOL or The New York Times, it is also much more profitable.
Digital products and services are increasingly becoming a core part of how education publishers do business. They build end-to-end solutions, which extend from textbooks to online testing, learning delivery platforms and apps. Education publishing as a business might lack the mainstream interest of other media, but the future of the classroom concerns many of us as students, parents, taxpayers, policymakers and teachers.
The profile of digital textbooks is undoubtedly rising. Business models differ from market to market, and between levels of schooling; but the advancement of classroom technology is prevalent in all cases. Considering that digital textbooks could have a disruptive influence on existing distribution methods, for example, potentially by textbook companies selling directly to the student, the question arises: "How will textbooks be marketed in the future? What impact will this have?"
Sales Reps
For the unfamiliar: Publisher sales cycles often start with the sales rep. A friendly figure who develops a relationship at school level, and uses that connection to consult and advise on which educational products to purchase. More often than not, the product knowledge of the rep benefits schools and the consultative selling approach enables the publisher to not only sell new ideas in, but also to get feedback and judgements ahead of publishing new titles. Educational publishing is therefore, as it exists now, a very relationship-driven business.
It is questionable whether this model will survive. Costs can include flights, food, entertaining and time between appointments. Schools appreciate the relationship, and publishers have benefited to-date. But will it still be cost effective as digital communications improve? This is a question that remains to be answered.
Another relationship to consider is that of distributors. Schools globally purchase their titles, in one go, from one place. It makes sense for everyone involved in the distribution chain. Publishers, rather than needing to send out copies of textbooks to individual schools, have a place to store their books. Distributors deal with packing, picking, orders, returns, announcing delays on new titles, all in return for a 30-50% cut of the sale of each textbook. Publishers often don't have the storage space or infrastructure to fulfill this function, allowing the distributor to step in and fill the gaps. The distributor can also give impartial (or not so impartial if their terms differ significantly between publisher) advice to schools on which textbooks to adopt for any given term/school year.
Apple (or Google, or any other classroom technology provider) will indirectly impact on these relationships, as they develop their own education products. The entire Apple infrastructure forces all purchases through their own app stores, where Apple take their 30% share. With Apple wanting such margins, and distributors expecting 30-50%, there is little scope for any profit for content creators if both parties are part of the sales funnel. So who will win? Will publishers develop digital products for their distribution channel to sell, maintaining those solid relationships with schools? Or will Apple's slick technology and presence in schools globally override the selling process?
(incidentally, YUDU apps can be sold via distributors or directly, and downloaded from various app stores)
Online teaching
With the rise of MOOCs and shifts to online learning, the marketplace for marketing these courses is growing. Rosetta Stone announced last April that it would only focus on digital solutions, and closed 56 of its remaining kiosk locations in the U.S as it transitioned to cloud-based learning solutions. Steve Sward, CEO, announced: "learners expect us to come to them via the cloud, and that's what we're doing. By meeting customers where they are, we are pursuing our vision of a world where anyone—anywhere, anytime—can learn using Rosetta Stone."
Naturally the situation is different in classrooms where learners aren't picking their own course content per se. However there are parts of the learning process that can be done just as well as online self-study, leaving valuable classroom time for teacher-led activities. This shift to online study is an area which requires companies to market slightly differently. Students might be offered to make their own choices around course content, and will be receptive to different marketing messages than their school's resources co-ordinators. This is being tackled today, by publishers and educational technology companies, using an array of digital marketing strategies. As of yet however, the "winning ticket" is yet to be found.
What is certain from this analysis is that technology has fundamentally changed the routes to market for all stakeholders in educational publishing. A range of other companies are competing in this space online, those which would not have stood a chance of disrupting the sales rep-to-school, or distributor-to-college relationship. The opening up of the market, in spite of some press concern about pricing, can only be a good thing for students and passionate educators in the long run. Especially, if the result is enhanced teaching and learning for all.
The challenge is, ultimately, for publishers and distributors to maintain their market share and for the giants of the technology world to keep the learner at the centre of development. If the outcome is a more educated and informed generation of digital natives, then we are moving in the right direction.

Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Sabah, President of Olympic Council of Asia (OCA) opened the 56th OCA Executive Board meeting at the Garden Hotel in Guangzhou on Friday (November 12) morning. Saying he was "very happy and honoured" to be in the City of Flowers for the 16th Asian Games from November 12 to 27, Sheikh Ahmad thanked the Guangzhou government, the central government, the Chinese Olympic Committee, organising committee GAGOC, the citizens of Guangzhou and all the volunteers for their hard work in preparing for the success of the 16th Asian Games.
|Olympic Council of Asia President Sheikh Ahmad Al-Fahad Al-Sabah opens the
56th OCA Executive Board meeting.
"We have been working hard, shoulder to shoulder, with our friends and colleagues in the organising committee of the Guangzhou Asian Games just to prepare a good environment to start our Asian Games," said Sheikh Ahmad.
"I am very satisfied with all the hard work that has been done by this city and the central government, and I would like to thank the National Olympic Committees, the International Federations and the Asian Federations for their cooperation and participation in our Games."
Sheikh Ahmad said the Asian Games signalled the gathering of the sports movement of Asia, including athletes, officials and media, and "everybody who loves sport".
He added: "We can feel that Guangzhou will be one of the best Asian Games, and the presence of His Excellency Jacques Rogge, IOC President, shows the full support, as always, of the International Olympic Committee. We also welcome our friends from Olympic Solidarity and appreciate what has been done for us."
Looking ahead to the 29th OCA General Assembly, the OCA President said the gathering of the Asian sports family would display the unity and solidarity of Asia, which he described as "the secret of Asia's success".
Sheikh Ahmad said the Asian Games was appreciated by other continents, and the recent meeting of NOCs in Acapulco, Mexico, recognised the activities of the OCA.

I walked Josh to the door there was a car sitting out in front of our house. I recognized it being one of the ECI people. I rushed backed in to see if I had forgotten another appointment. There was nothing on the calender. That is when I realized that Preston should have seen his dietitian last Wednesday that didn't happen. That would also explain when I glanced at the calender that I was looking at the wrong week.
Apparently the dietitian had a family emergency last week and called to rescheduled but I never got the message. Good thing I didn't have anything scheduled this morning.
Preston got weighted and measured.
Height: 33 3/8ths inches which puts him in the 3 to 5%.
Weight: 24.5 lbs. which also puts him in the 3 to 5%
That means that Preston is back on the growth chart!!
We are going to have a follow up meeting next month, just to make sure he is still on track. If all goes well he is going to released from seeing the dietitian.
On another note: We withdrew Ethan from his preschool yesterday. He was having discipline issues. For right now I'm going to be doing preschool at home with him and Preston.
The boys are playing Little Einsteins.
Preston loves his puzzles.
Playing with magnets.

Casino is one of the most esteemed and renowned online operators for UK citizens. They have really developed in recent years and are currently the best. What's more, the selection of live games and mobile games is important. I have also looked into the betting limits, as well as the potential jackpots to play for.

Media Matters - If It's Sunday, It's Conservative: An analysis of the Sunday talk show guests on ABC, CBS, and NBC, 1997 - 2005: "The Sunday-morning talk shows on ABC, CBS, and NBC are where the prevailing opinions are aired and tested, policymakers state their cases, and the left and right in American politics debate the pressing issues of the day on equal ground. Both sides have their say and face probing questions. Or so you would think.
In fact, as this study reveals, conservative voices significantly outnumber progressive voices on the Sunday talk shows. Media Matters for America conducted a content analysis of ABC's This Week, CBS' Face the Nation, and NBC's Meet the Press, classifying each one of the nearly 7,000 guest appearances during President Bill Clinton's second term, President George W. Bush's first term, and the year 2005 as either Democrat, Republican, conservative, progressive, or neutral. The conclusion is clear: Republicans and conservatives have been offered more opportunities to appear on the Sunday shows - in some cases, dramatically so."

Another in blue and I promise I will use another color after this one.
But this blue card has caused many emails as a lot of you seem to like this shade as well.
It is from Limetree Crafts. I buy their card from the craft shows and it is always good value for money...but the link to their website is not working at present
So there are more new dies used on this card and they are all from the Finishing Touches by Sue Wilson.
I have used Faux Quilled Leaves, Faux Quilled Blooms and the Fern Trio and I got all of these dies from JGD Crafts
The ribbon is from Mei Flower and I have added ribbon loops with a large pearl and diamante centre which is from Wild Orchid Crafts
The pearls in the centre of each bloom are from Want2Scrap and it makes for a very pretty card.
Book a Workshop
One is 13th September for JGD Crafts and they are based in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottingham and that class is already fully booked.
The other is 4th October for Crafting 4pleasure and they are based in Bristol ... so if you live in the area and would like to attend the workshop then email Bev at email@example.com
There are some places still available so email now to secure your place, bring your pens along and I'll see you there

C# Encryption Class
Orçamento $25-30 USD
I need a C# class that has at least 6 forms of encryption. The only 2 visible ("public") functions in that class should be a encrypt string, and encrypt file function. The file function should only take the filename as a string, and return a byte array of the encrypted file.
In addition, the class must have one public event that returns the progress of the current encryption in a percent form (so only 0-100 values, based on where the encryption is).
Also, there should be a string and file function for MD5 hash, one that will generate the same MD5 as is compatible w/ the MySQL MD5 strings.
So all in all the class from the public view should look something like this:
public string getString(encryptionType, inputString);
public byte[] getFile(encryptionType, fileNameString);
public string getMD5Hash(inputString);
public striing getMD5FileHash(inputFileName);
I know .NET has native functions for this most of this, but I'm to lazy to do it. So if you want, you can do it and earn some $$$.

1. Shampoo with Nexxus Pro Mend
2. Condition with Nexxus Humectress
3. Deep Condition with Macadamia Natural Oil Masque (1hr) HAIR FELT GREAT!
4. I applied my leaves in & heat protectant
5. Blow Dry & Flat Iron
I just trimmed my hair, myself ! When I was done with my washing routine I notice that my ends were DRY. Something I never notice. My entire head was still wet but my ends, they had dried up so quickly & felt rough. & out of no where I TRIM THEM I don't know why I decided to cut it I just did. Now I'm having a love hate relationship with my "cut". I love that my ends feel so much more better but I hate that my hair is back to the same length it always stays at & it's UNEVEN! I'm debating if I should go to the salon & get it cut evenly causing it to be even shorter or just wait. I don't know ladies help me decide please. Other then that I had a successful wash day being that I used NO product's that had contained anything related to PROTEIN! I had minimal shedding being that this time I washed in sections & I deep condition for an hour (had taken a nap). Overall my hair feels GREAT with the trim even though it has some unevenness :( (Sorry for the blurry pic) But you can see the cut on the right side. I'm also planning to go back to the basics of hair care being that those procedures help me retain the length that I just cut. Frequent washes, BUNS, deep conditioning & Moisturizing & Sealing. Also staying away from heat but that's going to be a tough one I just might keep it to how I'm doing it now with heat 2x a month. That isn't to much heat is it?

The purpose of this work is split into two categories, the first was to analyse the application of real-time Physics Engine software libraries for use in calculating a geological numerical model. Second was the analysis of the applicability of glyph and implicit surface based visualization techniques to explore fault systems produced by the model. The current state of the art in Physics Engines was explored by redeveloping a Discrete Element Model to be calculated using NVIDIA's PhysX engine. Analyses regarding the suitability of the engine in terms of numerical accuracy and developmental capabilities is given, as well as the definition of a specialised and bespoke parallelisation technique. The use of various glyph based visualizations is explored to define a new standardised taxonomy for geological data and the MetaBall visualization technique was applied to reveal three dimensional fault structures as an implicit surface. Qualitative analysis was undertaken in the form of a user study, comprising of interviews with expert geologists. The processing pipeline used by many Physics Engines was found to be comparable to the design of Discrete Element Model software, however, aspects of their design, such as integration accuracy, limitation to single precision floating point and imposed limits on the scale of n-body problem means their suitability is restricted to specific modelling cases. Glyph and implicit surface based visualization have been shown to be an effective way to present a geological Discrete Element Model, with the majority of experts interviewed able to perceive the fault structures that it contained. Development of a new engine, or modification of one that exists in accordance with the findings of this thesis would result in a library extremely well suited to the problem of rigid-body simulation for the sciences.

Day 153 - 164.2 Date Night & Thoughts on Running
I'm quite excited. We go out just the two of us on a fairly regular basis, probably every other month or so, but it's still a treat every time. Dinner is almost always at Bonefish Grill, and I've saved up 3 veggies, a protein, a starch, and a dairy, which is plenty for a nice dinner.
Then, Harry Potter at the IMAX. I saw HP on Monday, when I played hookie for half a day at work and took a mental health day, which included living vicariously through teenaged wizards. On Monday I specifically chose the "regular" theater because I knew DH would want to see it in IMAX, and it will still be a treat for me tonight. I can't wait to see it again. I know he's jail bait and I'm an old married lady, but Daniel Radcliffe makes my toes curl, esp. with his new haircut.
After work I'm going for a run, which I would so love to blow off and not have to shower and get ready again for our date, but I've got a race to train for and 22ish more pounds to lose so I'm going running. Today starts week 5 of my training, and I'm scheduled to run 3 miles. If I make it, it will be the first time I've run 3 miles straight through. I hope it goes well.
I have a feeling I'm going to have to always be training for some kind of race. Or have some kind of list to check off to keep me motivated and feeling like I'm accomplishing something. I need goals. I need lists. I need direction. Otherwise, I'm directionless and tend to let things go. I've got 8 more weeks to train for this 5K, and then I'll have to find something else.
There's a half marathon in Indianapolis in May that my niece-in-law (she's my age) is going to run, and I might train for that. It may be too soon to run 13 miles, so I'm not sure yet. Truly, I won't know what my body can do until I get to goal. An extra 22 pounds is a lot to carry around, and when it's gone and after I've had more weeks of consistent running in, I might be ready. We'll see.
What I do know is this-- Running is helping my weight move down. Running is keeping me in the gym. Running makes me feel like I can do anything. It's even making my arms look good--who knew I wouldn't have to lift weights to get a little definition in my shoulders and biceps and just had to run?! I sure had no idea.
I'm remember reading somewhere that a runner hits their peak after 6 or 7 years of training. That means, when I'm 43ish I'll be in the best running shape of my life. And I could deal with that. Running marathons in my 40s sounds like an impossible dream. But I'm on the path to making it a reality.
Maybe someday my kiddos will be at the finish line, waving signs and cheering me on. And proud of their fit Mom who runs marathons. Or they will be running beside me. Either way, that's a dream I want to come true.

Good luck on the 3 miles. I'm sure you can do it - also you are far enough away from the race that flip-flopping days would be ok, too.
This statement is impressive - "Running is helping my weight move down." That is more than I can claim. With time that arm muscle tone will also drift to your upper back, and that is really nice.
I can't believe you can commit to something and know that it might take 6-7 years to peak - For my race in May I was hoping 6-7 months was enough time to peak. You see people of all shapes, sizes and ages at marathons - at 40 years old you might even be in the largest age group. A lot of people are there just to finish with no concern about how long it takes as long as the clock is still running when they cross the finish line. (And they will all probably be happier than a lot of the other runners at the end of the day)

Have fun on your date! And enjoy the movie!
I think in the end, you will have your darling boy and girl running with you and proud of you among many other wonderful things. You really have been an inspiration.

Angels Affirm An Anointed's Advancement Series
Contributed by Mack Armstrong on Aug 16, 2007 (message contributor)
Summary: Angles are a part of the Christian Theology, they due service for God and to man; yet they are inferior to Christ who is above all celestial beings.
I. THE ANOINTED: Hebrews 1:1-3
A. Announces.
B. Accomplishes.
C. Administrates.
II. THE ARGUMENT: Hebrews 1:4, 5
A. Advantageous.
B. Achievement.
C. Analogy.
III. THE ANGELS: Hebrews 1:6-14
A. Assignment.
C. Activities.
C. Approbation.
The writer to the Hebrews waists little time in establishing the fact that Christ is better. He is better than everything that the readers had known in times past. Through out the letter, the writer states that Christ and His religion is better in twelve different ways to the Old Testament and the former way of serving God.
Like a brilliant lawyer, the writer builds his case to prove that we who follow Jesus have the best in this world and in the world to come. In the passage before us, the writer starts out by telling his reader that Christ is better than the angels. He ends his argument in chapter 12, verse 24, by affirming that the sacrifice of Christ is better than Abel's. By so comparing this sacrifice of Abel's slain lamb to the Slain Sacrifice of Christ-he concludes his writing by assuring his readers that the best sacrifice of God's plan was the last recorded in the Holy Writ as compared to the first animal sacrifice in the Bible.
Here, in chapter one, the writer lays his foundation for what is to come and slowly, methodically, he builds his case unto a crescendo of glory and rapture for we servants of Christ. It is important to remember the time frame in which he wrote his letter. It was in the first century of Christendom and the Judiazers were busy trying to tear down what Christ had accomplished. The Romans were busy trying to snuff out Christianity. The Gnostics were busy trying to impinge the reality of flesh, spirit and soul. There were heretics already loose in the Christian Church. The different churches of Corinth and those mentioned in the Book of the Revelations were already showing signs of internal discord. Amongst all of this background, the writer of the Hebrews takes stylus to parchment and says in only the brilliant manner in which he was able to write, "Fellow believers, just let me tell you how precious your faith is by comparing things around you and I will prove that we have it "better" than all the rest. Furthermore, we are headed to a "better" place, bought and purchased by the Blood of Jesus, a "better" land than what we have this side of eternity." Although this letter was of much importance in his day, the passing of time has not diminished the value of these "betters" that he mentions. If any thing, these "betters" are looking "better" every year that God withholds the return of Jesus for His Bride. Friends, it can only get better and better the longer we serve Jesus here and then go home to be with Him in the future.
I see three things about the first "better" of this book. I see where the writer introduces Jesus to his readers as THE ANOINTED One, in verses one through three. Next, I note THE ARGUMENT for his position in verses four and five. Finally, I see where he introduces THE ANGELS and their lesser place in verses six through fourteen.

We overhauled the back yard last spring. The beautiful circular planters that replaced our pool 8 years ago were not working for us – lots of wasted space, paver bricks that had settled awkwardly, and trouble with weed suppression on the paths between the planters.
I wanted something simpler – raised rectangular beds, off to the side of the yard. I looked into raised bed kits made of cedar at the hardware store, but the quality of the boards was awfully low for $100 a pop. Also, the design made it so that 3 boards were stacked upon one another on each side, and the mechanism for holding them together was not very sturdy. It was clear that there would be gaps.
We decided to DIY. We would've needed two 4'x8′ kits to provide the space we wanted to cover, so my goal was to create two cedar planters for less than the $200 the kits would've cost.

Interactions can begin as soon as Dennis posts his response to this year's lead-in query:
"What is the most important issue or activity facing you in your school library this fall?"
Hi Mr. LeLoup,
I went to your website or blog and read your quote there, "...we have a responsibility to connect them with their world, while securing and protecting their access to knowledge..." I haven't had the opportunity to practice my librarianship but I am currently a language teacher at the high school level. There are always days that I have to send my students to the lab to work on the research project. How do I secure and protect my students' access to knowledge since I do not have any control over the computers in the computer lab? How do I apply my knowledge to this scenario? Thank you very much. My name is Huei-Ru Shiu.
Mr. LeLoup,
It seems as though you are very, very active in associations and advisory/advocacy committees and you also have a lot of experience at the school level. What are the biggest differences between working at the school level versus the state or national level committees?
Mr. LeLoup,
Thank you for joining us. What advice would you give to someone who would someday like to work in a library in a school setting?
Jennifer Cornelius
First, let me apologize for not responding last night. I've been told that I'm too involved before, but I have a hard problem saying no. Things have also been very busy at school. I have no excuses though, other than to say "I forgot." I became so busy with completing a purchase order, since they are due prior to the close of school tomorrow, and checking email, that I forgot. We also had an unexpected "emergency" situation occur and that had to be dealt with. Fortunately, it wasn't a real emergency, but it was something that had to be taken care of. I apologize to each of you profusely for not getting on last night. I feel as if I've let you down, but I am here now and tomorrow night. If I need to respond to any further inquiries on Saturday, I will do so. Thanks for your patience and understanding.
In response to the beginning question, time is my biggest issue this fall. My time is equally split between two intermediate schools, the only two in Avon. One has a student population of just under 700 and the other has about 730. I have 2 1/2 days at each school. Wednesday is my travel day and fortunately the schools are close; they are also connected. I can walk from one into the other. One other school librarian serves each school for 1 and 1/2 days, and there is an assistant for the equivalent of two days at each school, so the library can be open full time during the school day. However, as the main person at each school, I must do all of the ordering and I supervise the assistants in each of the buildings. Things can get a little crazy sometimes. However, I love it! I work with some very understanding people and have two wonderful principals. This does make a difference.
Welcome! I would love one day to be as active as you are in the library community at all levels of professional development. What advice do you have for me on how to establish myself in that environment.Delete
The most important issue facing me this year is time. I've already alluded to the fact that I'm split equally between two large schools and do all of the ordering and most of the planning for lessons/activities at each school. There is good parent help available, and I'm going to have to take advantage of this. The assistant at each school basically works during a time when no professional is there, but her time overlaps with professional time, so there is some good communication. Parents are critical though, and I make heavy use of email and the internet. Technology plays a big role for me. I also want to have valuable student time. The kids are very important!
Mr. LeLoup,
Has the new RISE evaluation system had any type of impact on you and the libraries that you work in?
Jennifer Cornelius
You pose a very good question and I will answer as honestly as possible, but I have a feeling that situations could vary depending upon location. I assume you mean how do you ascertain that the students are using the computers properly and also be assured they are accurately and completely using all resources. First, there should be computer monitor, or assistant, in the computer lab. Not to have a professional or para-professional in the computer lab when students are working is, in my opinion, a recipe for disaster. Sitations can happen, and not just situations caused by students, but computer problems or malfunctions. A computer technician can guide each student to accurately find the correct resource, etc. I would imagine there are also safeguards in place at each school and in the computer labs. Although I don't believe that "controls" always work properly, I would imagine there are safeguards like this in place. You have control over their research assignments and will have an idea of what you expect from them with their answers. Tell them ahead of time what you expect. Give time limitations in the computer lab. Always remember that your fears don't lie in the computers, but your fears must lie with the users. Students will receive answers to questions based on what they ask and the words they use. Make certain they each have goals, be aware of the information they may encounter, and give them guidance in terms of how to search.
Thanks for your question. The biggest differences between working at the school level and serving on local, state, and national committees are flexibility of time and possibly ideas gained from colleagues. My school time is so structured, now more so than before. However, committee work is more open and flexible. My time is not as structured and there is more freedom to solicit ideas, help, etc. Also, although you can gain valuable ideas from the colleagues you work with on a daily basis, they may not be the same as the knowledge gained from interaction with library colleages. Other librarians may come from similar situations as you and they are librarians. Also they may face different situations since they come from different parts of the country. Their challenges may be different than yours; as a result it would be valuable to know their responses. Challenges facing individuals on school level committees may be different than those facing individuals on state and national committees. Resources are also different. Personally, I think the challenges faced on state and national committees could be greater than those faced on local committees. On local committees everything is local and can be contained.
As far as my best advice for a future school librarian, that is a tough question. One thing I believe is of paramount importance. Carefully consider the school districts you would like to be part of and their commitment to school librarians and school library resources. Times change and financial problems may force trusted individuals to make decisions we never thought we would see. However, consider their commitment to school libraries and school librarians. Also, be mobile. As much as I hate to say this, school districts in more financially secure areas may have more of a commitment to school libraries and librarians. Unfortunately, I also know of individuals that are considering a move out of state, because situations, and/or regulations in other states may be very different. When interviewing, there is nothing wrong with asking your future principal/administrator about their commitment to school libraries. Ask them their philosphy of good school library programs and what they expect. Their answers will give you much insight into them and their support.
Mr. LeLoup,
Thanks for the great advice. I was also wondering if your schools participate in the AR program. I have heard mixed reviews on the program. As a parent, both of my children in school love it. What do you think?
Jennifer Cornelius
The new RISE evaluation system hasn't had the impact upon me and the librarians with whom I work as it has had in other school districts. This is partly due to administrator interpretation, in my opinion, of how to structure a working model for students/teachers in their respective districts. Did administrators solicit teacher input? In my school district teacher input was solicited and from all teachers. Librarians had input. School librarians in Avon have their own evaluation model which differs from classroom teachers. Unfortunately, I don't like the fact that all teachers have to "toot their own horn" to coin a phrase. It is important for us to detail our accomplishments as this impacts our evaluation, pay, and impact upon students. I almost feel like we are saying that we are better than someone else and I don't like this. However, outside of that, RISE hasn't impacted me much so far. Some school librarians aren't this fortunate.
Several years back, the Avon school district invested heavily in AR. At the time I was against it because students were only encouraged to read AR books at the expense of other good literature that didn't have an AR test. I still feel the same way, but am totally against AR. It does provide a pretty good measurement of reading level and book knowledge. Notice I said a "pretty good" level. There is an Avi chapter book, although the title deserts me, which AR rates a 2.9 RL and it is much more than that, more than likely a 4.9 to 5.2 or so. I think AR is good to use for an idea of reading level, but don't put supreme authority in it. My school now uses Reading Counts, and I feel even stronger about this now. I believe all of them can provide good direction to a book's reading level but may not be the complete authority.
That is a tough question. I look for many ways to cut corners and find them in various places. For instance, since I'm split evenly between two schools this year, and I do the planning for both schools, I synchronize my plans. I have a book vendor that has always visited me each year. This year I'm at two intermediate schools, and one for the first time. I duplicated my orders, with one going to one intermediate school and the other going to the second intermediate school. Parent volunteers can be a tremendous help, and I will engage the help of all the parent volunteers I can enlist. Time saving measures can appear in different quarters and you learn to become aware of your horizon and tap into those cost-cutting measures.
Hi Melissa:
For me the most enriching part of being involved with national professional organizations lies in the outside contacts and friendships I've made. I've also learned that my situation is not unique and many people are in similar or even worse situations. Cuts have hurt people in different states and these cuts have hurt librarians in varying measures. It makes you appreciate what you have when you begin to feel sorry for yourself. More than that, it makes you realize that the scope of your problem or problems is more than statewide. States are suffering national in similar situations. Also, I've made many wonderful friends through participation in state and national conferences, and these contacts have definitely added to my professional endeavors. I can put more into what I do on my job based on what I've heard or seen from others. I've learned from others situations and the ideas they have started in their schools. Some of my reading ideas have come through conversations with other professionals. Plus I value my own situation, and worth, even more. I believe that everyone needs encouragement sometimes. Being nominated for certain offices, and even winning elections for those offices, encourages me and tells me that others value what I'm doing. It encourages me to keep going on. Sometimes this is a great encouragement, particularly if you are getting tired and just need a boost. Conversation with other professionals motivates your professional enthusiasm!
I was looking back through the comments and believe I've missed yours inadvertantly. For that I apologize. As far as establishing yourself in the library community, just volunteer for different things and show that you are willing to serve. Let individuals currently serving know that you want to be involved and be active; show them you are willing and what you have to contribute. My first involvement was on an AIME (now AISLE) Committee, and I believe it was membership, or something like that. From that involvement, I was asked to be a committee chair or co-chair. I went from committee chair to vice-President. At one time, AIME had a vice-President for District Programs and a vice-President for membership, I believe. From that I was asked to allow my name to be placed on the ballot as President-Elect/President. I was greatly honored and said yes. I've appreciated all levels of service that I've done. My state involvement led to national involvement and other nominations, some of which I've lost and many which I've won. Lately, I was elected to the 2014 Caldecott Committee and this nomination, along with election, represents a dream come true. I've also had nominations and elections which I never dreamed would happen, such as my current term as ILF President. I'm grateful for each one, but they all began with local committee involvement letting people know I'm interested in serving. Good luck in your future endeavors!
Thanks for the information. I read your article, "The Many Fibers of Reading" and I was wondering if your students are still using the Books and Beyond reading program and if your recreational reading goal is still high.Delete
I don't know if I've answered this or not, but I think the biggest challenge for libraries currently is showcasing ourselves. How do we show our worth and value without coming across as "look how great I am" or "look what I'm doing." Money and people are the biggest issues facing the profession, both locally and nationally. We need to showcase the worth of libraries, both locally and nationally, in such a way that local individuals and legislators see us in a different light and truly understand what we are contributing. Some understand what libraries are providing and others don't. The knowledge of the service all types of libraries are providing, particularly school and public I believe, will ultimately promote the profession and us as librarians. We must showcase our user connections, and the types of services we provide, for the public and legislators to get on our side and lobby with us. I think we must continually look at new and different ways of promoting what we do and how we serve our public!

After a decision by the Tennessee Court of Appeals handed down on Tuesday, Nashville's Fisk University is one step closer to being able to sell the gorgeous art collection bequeathed to it by artist Georgia O'Keefe. A little background is in order to understand this controversy. In 1949, O'Keefe donated 97 pieces to Fisk from the estate of her late husband, the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. The collection contains works by Picasso, Renoir, Cezanne, Marsden Hartley, Alfred Maurer and Charles Demuth, among others. O'Keeffe, who died in 1986, also gave the school four of her own paintings as part of the gift, which was made to Fisk because the school educated blacks at a time when the South was segregated. The gift carried the stipulation that it could not be sold or broken up. But Fisk has long maintained that it cannot even afford the yearly costs of displaying the collection and that it needs to monetize the artwork to keep its doors open. In 2005, Fisk announced plans to sell O'Keeffe's "Radiator Building" and Hartley's "Painting No. 3." The state attorney general opposed the sale because that office oversees charitable giving for the State. The parties have been litigating about the collection ever since.
Fisk wants to enter into a joint venture with the Crystal Bridges Museum of Benton, Arkansas, wherein Fisk would sell a 50% stake in the collection in exchange for $30 million dollars. The Fisk O'Keefe collection would then move between Fisk and the Crystal Bridges Museum every two years. Crystal Bridges also houses a collection amassed by Walmart heiress Alice Walton and features pieces like Asher Durand's landscape painting "Kindred Spirits" and Norman Rockwell's "Rosie the Riveter."
The trial court had placed a condition on the transaction that Fisk had to reserve two thirds of the proceeds, or $20 million dollars, to ensure future upkeep of the collection amid the university's shaky financial circumstances. The Court of Appeals held that the trial judge did not have the authority to impose this reserve and that the proposed sale could go forward without the reserve requirement. Judge Frank Clement dissented, arguing that the record indicated that it was never Georgia O'Keefe's intention to give Fisk the collection in order "to pay its general operating expenses."
While the Court of Appeals ruled out the reserve requirement, it did not preclude the court from approving one or another "dedicated source of support" for the collection. It also requires Fisk to outline how it will use a $1 million pledge from Walton to upgrade the display space and describe plans to spend the $30 million proceeds from the transaction.
The state attorney general's office has not yet indicated whether to seek an appeal to the state Supreme Court and it has thirty days to make that decision.
The decision is In re Fisk University, No. M2010-02615-COA-R3-CV, decision dated November 29, 2011.
Judge Richard Dinkins, delivered the opinion of the court, in which Judge David Farmer joined. Judge Frank Clement filed a separate opinion concurring in part and dissenting in part.

The Lighter Side of the News
Friday, June 08, 2007
In the tradition of the Monday Link-O-Rama, I thought I would throw out some (hopefully) interesting stories I read this week. I don't have a lot of time, so I thought I'd use the same format as Smitty.
1. As a kid, one of my favorite shows was Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. Marlin Perkins was the host and I was always fascinated by the footage. Unlike many of the Disneyesque films of today, Wild Kingdom was brutally honest in is depictions of nature. If they showed a gazelle drinking from a watering hole, five minutes later a lion would probably be eating it. In that tradition, watch this Youtube video of an encounter between lions and a herd of buffalo.
2. Canada seems to have strange laws in regards to weapons. That, or they have a serious problem with Ninjas. I am sure that Canadians can sleep well knowing their government will protect them from dorks like these individuals.
3. I am a strong advocate for public schools. I received a good education from one. My wife and several friends teach at public schools. Unfortunately, when stories like this come out it is difficult to know what to say. Look carefully at the sign in the picture...'Let Are Kids Walk.' Maybe all those jokes about Texas are true...I mean our true.

Sometimes, it's not so easy to jump in the pool or the lake and plow through the water. It should be -- I have an epic goal on the horizon that will only be achieved by consistently swimming toward it, every day, or close to it. The whole reason I'm doing this is to challenge myself and celebrate the blessing of good health that allows me to do it. Every day, I see patients in rehab, struggling with intense focus to move a finger or take a single step. They push their limits, too, every day.
So why is it, when I look out on a slightly rough lake on a given Sunday, say last Sunday, I decide to bail on the workout? There was no one around, which was my excuse, but I could have easily swum close to the beach for a couple of hours safely enough. I just didn't.
It's times like these where I wish I wasn't the only goldfish in the bowl. I'm connected to dozens of other marathon swimmers through facebook and the marathon swimmers forum, but not here, on the beach at Branched Oak Lake, telling me to quit being a pansy and let's go swim.
I especially want some company when the water temps start dropping. I don't think I ever would have stayed in the cold ocean at Manhattan Beach last spring if it weren't for the pod of other swimmers. Somehow, knowing there's another person who's also plowing headfirst into the freezing seafoam, makes it a lot more tolerable.
So, I'll see who I can con into doing this with me. Granted, it's a tough sell. "Hey, wanna go swimming in 60 degree lake water? It'll be fun!" But, really - it IS fun when you are in it together. And hot coffee never tasted so good afterwards.
Meanwhile, I've opted to go for a jog-walk this morning instead of the usual swim practice, so I'd better get going. I don't necessarily need to swim the entire way to my channel swimming goal, but I need to keep moving forward one way or another. I love this quote from fellow Channel 2014 classmate Bethany Bosch:
"All great accomplishments are the compilation of small, consistent, great choices. The choice is there, whether or not you make it is what determines where your journey will end."

Hi Molly,ReplyDelete
I found your blog from a post on a marathon swimmer's forum (it was linked in the comments). I've been working towards training for the super endurance swim in North Dakota next year, but I have no open water experience at all. I live in Omaha and I noticed you also live in Nebraska.
Maybe we could meet up sometime and go for a swim in the lake so I can get some open water experience?
Absolutely Sara! I'd welcome your company. My email is email@example.com. Let's pick a date for open water swim practice.ReplyDelete
Excellent read and a grand effort. You (all) had me when you stepped into the water.ReplyDelete

Channel Letter Signs
Front-Lit or Standard Letters
Front-Lit or standard letters use aluminum backs and translucent acrylic or polycarbonate faces. Light is emitted from the front of the sign which gives the Front-Lit letter style the best overall visibility.
Day/Night Letters
A Special Front Lit face style is the "Daytime Black / Nighttime White" Face, which allows the best of both worlds. A dark colored face on a light background, but a white letter when the background turns dark at night. It's an up charge to standard Front Lit channel letters because of the special vinyl used to make this cool feature but well worth the cost if you have "Black Lettering" in your logo.
Reverse- Lit Letters
Reverse or halo-lit letters are essentially the opposite as they mostly have aluminum faces and clear polycarbonate backs. Light is emitted from rear of the sign and projects a halo or soft lighting effect on the building.
Raceway mounted channel letters are attached to a long, custom fabricated aluminum box that is mounted to the building and houses electrical components required to power the LED. The raceway method is often specified by building owners because it causes less damage to the building.
Individual or direct mount channel letters are attached directly to the building facade. Wiring is routed through the wall to an interior cavity, drop ceiling, or other available space.

1) Find a basis for, and the dimension of, $\displaystyle col(A)$, where
$\displaystyle A=\begin{pmatrix}1&1&0&2&1\\0&0&-1&-2&2\\-1&-1&1&4&-1\\1&1&0&4&2\end{pmatrix}$
I'm don't really know what $\displaystyle col(A)$ means. But would you start of this question by:
1) Reducing into reduced row-echelon form.
2) Then looking at the leading columns (or pivot columns) and take those to the basis.
3) Dimension can then be determined
So the reduced row-echelon form is:
$\displaystyle A=\begin{pmatrix}1&1&0&0&0\\0&0&1&0&-3\\0&0&0&1&0.5\\0&0&0&0&0\end{pmatrix}$
I just need someone to verify whether what I'm doing is correct here.
