As the multitudes fan out across the nation this summer to visit national parks, first-time visitors especially expect and usually have a very special experience. It is, after all, a thrill to see the glories of such sanctuaries as Yellowstone, Yosemite and Glacier, the icy lakes in Rocky Mountain and the eroded landscapes of Bryce, Zion and Grand Canyon.
Every national park has within its boundaries wildlife and natural wonders ranging from swamps to forests to rugged mountains that have been given special designation and protection by Congress.

|1,076 sq. ft.
|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|4 nights
This apartment of 100 sqm is located in the historic center of Naples, in a building of the '700. The apartment is on the fourth floor. Bright and quiet. Split over two levels, two double bedrooms and a bathroom are located upstairs. The very large kitchen, fully equipped, with a dining area, a third bedroom with double bed, a spacious living room and a second bathroom are located on the lower level. The rooms are spacious and elegantly furnished.
The apartment was less than 15 minutes walk from airport bus stop/train station, and convenient to the historic centre. It was as described, clean and spacious. Our only negative was the lack of a kitchen knife. Luckily the charming fishmonger opposite prepared the fish for us so we could take advantage of the local shops. We would definitely recommend this flat.
This apartment is located on one of the main roads in the ancient heart of Naples. The apartment is large and easily accommodated our family of 5 - including two teenagers. The apartment is clean and well appointed with a fully functional kitchen and two baths. I would not recommend bringing a car here as parking would be extremely challenging. Luckily, the location is terrific for easy walking access to any of the sites in the Central district. The Bay of Naples is about 3 km away which is walkable but there is also a taxi stand at the nearby Duomo, so you have options. Definitely a great location from which to explore this exciting city.
Absolutely superb apartment - you even get a view of the sea (ok it's a way off but it's there). Very well provisioned, light, airy, spacious and couldn't be better positioned for the main sights of Naples. There's a small supermarket just across the road, a couple of excellent fishmongers and a bakery just steps away. And if you like pizza all the most famous and historic ones are minutes away.
And Sonia herself couldn't be more gracious and helpful.
We were very satisfied with the apartment which was exactly as shown in the internet pictures - bright , roomy and very quiet - an oasis of peace in the midst of the very lively historical centre of Naples.
The apartment was well-appointed and very clean. It is secure as the main gate is closed evenings and at weekends. It is convenient to bars,restaurants and all shopping can be done locally on foot.
The apartment is ideally situated and can be recommended as a basis for Naples and day trips to nearby Pompei,Amalfi Coast , Sorento and Capri.
The manager, Sonja, proved extremely helpful,informative and effective. We highly recommend this place!
Very comfortable and spacious for the four of us. A great location right in the heart of the old city. Very quiet with the windows shut - which was great given the level of activity outside. Fully equipped with all we needed, including air conditioning which we needed as the weather was surprisingly warm during our late october stay, Loads to see and do in the area and good transport links to get to the Roman sites. Great shops, restaurants and cafes in the area. Sonia was very helpful too. thanks for a great stay
This is a lovely, clean, well maintained property in the heart of Naples. Sonia is helpful and efficient in arranging your booking and the taxi transfer she organised from the airport made that initial arrival in a new city completely stress free. The huge plus for this property however is it's position, being situated on one of the most well known streets in the Centro Storico, with many well known restaurants and sights on your doorstep. The building in which the apartment is housed, whilst secure from the street, is full of character and many hours can be spent watching a typical neapolitan day pass by your kitchen window - you even have a bakery on the ground floor for daily fresh bread!. We enjoyed a wonderful stay here and would definitely return.
Want to discover the south of Italy, and stay in a vibrant and lively town? Naples is the right city for you!
The area in which the facility is called Spaccanapoli, a very characteristic district with folklore, where you will find some of the restaurants, trattorias, pizzerias and bars more typical of the city. Here you are in the heart of Naples greek-Roman, close to the churches, palaces, from the famous Duomo di San Gennaro and the famous San Severo Chapel which houses the wonderful sculpture of 'Veiled Christ'. Naples is a rich and animated city where you will not fail to have fun!
Along the coast of Naples, then you will find many beaches for a dip. Many tourist destinations are located within a radius of 30-40 km, such as Pompeii, the Sorrento coast, the Amalfi Coast, Capri ... In short, a rich and animated in the south!

Sports massage helps to alleviate the tension and muscle soreness caused by strenuous activity, stresses of everyday life, poor posture and repetitive strains.
A variety of soft tissue techniques are used to target the muscles, tendons and ligaments, restoring the body to normal well-being.
Benefits of sports massage:
Improve circulation and lymphatic flow
Assist in the removal of metabolic waste
Reduce muscle tension and pain
Assist in prevention and recovery from sports injuries
Sedate or stimulate nerve endings
Remodel scar tissue when required
Improves overall posture and flexibility
You do not need to be a sports performer to benefit from a sports massage!
Sports massage can be especially good at relieving tight, knotted "computer shoulders" from too many hours spent sitting at a desk which has resulted in back or neck strain and can help with repetitive strain injuries from driving, lifting, carrying or other activities.

Taubman honoured
Southern 100 Stalwart Phil Taubman has been awarded an MBE in the 2017 Newyear's Honours List for services to Motorcycle sport and to the Manx Community. Philtaubman got involved with the first running of the Southern 100 in 1955, assisting in setting out the now famous Billown Course for what the media called an ambitious three-race programme, which was successfully run on Thursday, July 14. At that time the races were run by the Southern Motorcycle Club Committee, which Phil joined in 1961 and he followed this by becoming a member of the Southern MCC Race Committee in 1964. In 1968 he became the Club Catering Officer and, apparently, he still cooks a good bacon and egg breakfast! In 1970 Phil was Paddock Marshal, in 1975 he became Chairman of the Race Committee and then in 1978 he was made the Clerk of the Course for the Billown Course. 1981 saw the Southern 100 Motorcycle Racing Club take over the organising of the July races, with Phil still in position as the Clerk of the Course, a role he eventually stepped down from at the end of 2015 after 38 years. In 2002 Phil was made Chairman of Southern 100 Racing, a position he still holds today. Since 1955 and up to and including 2015, Phil has seen the Southern 100 grow from a fledgling club meeting to a fully Fim-authorised International Road Race – one of just four that are held in the British Isles annually. Away from the Southside Billown Course, Phil has been involved with thett Races, the Manx Grand Prix and latterly the Classic TT for many years, including being Clerk of the Course for the Manx Grand Prix (now the Festival of Motorcycling) from 2008 - 2015. He is also involved with the short circuit road races organised by the Andrea Racing Association at Jurby Autodrome. Phil has dedicated over 60 years of his life to the sport of motorcycle road racing and is just as passionate about 'his' sport today, if not more so, as he was when he first got involved back in 1955 with his best mate, the late Gordon Clague. Southern 100 Racing congratulates Philtaubman MBE on his well-deserved award, but he will not have much time to rest on his laurels, as the three races being run on the Billown Course in 2017 need to be organised and the course needs to be set-up once again for the 'Friendly Races'.

Food is art.
I love trying out all sorts of restaurants, whether they are holes in the wall or Michelin starred spots. For my mother's birthday, my family and I had dinner at Catch NYC, which is a trendy celebrity spot known for it's rooftop and creative seafood dishes, as well as refreshing cocktails.
Here are a few pictures of the dishes we all shared.

Published at Sunday, January 14th, 2018 - 18:42:45 PM. Chair. By Darcel Leclerc.
These days, it is really a popular trend to mix and match your dining room chairs and your dining room table. One way you can keep the same style would be to add differe t arm chairs for the head of the table, but keeping the chairs on either side of the table matching. This will give your dining room a nice style without being overly dramatic bold. Actually using totally different styles of chairs is definitely a bolder move and might not be the right choice for your style or your room. If your table is made out of wood, you will have a bigger selection of styles and designs of chairs that you can mix and match. But if you have purchased a table with a glass top or a marble top, you might be a little more limited in the choices of chairs that would blend well with your table.
One area of chair design that has really taken huge leaps in the last few years is Stack-able Chairs. They use to be either chairs that felt like rocks when you sat on them or a cheaply made plastic thing that kind of resembled a chair. Stacking chairs today incorporate design and functional materials that allow for greater comfort over longer periods of time. And one of the greatest features of stacking chairs- they're stack-able, taking up minimal space when stored for future use. Stacking chairs are not just for the office either. Having just a few of these now affordable chairs at your home and you can instantly have a seating for entire extended family or party guests.

Timur Bekmatebov's high-concept action horror flick ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER is moving full steam ahead: With a cast that already includes Ben Walker, Dominic Cooper, Anthony Mackie and Mary Elisabeth Winstead (pictured below), the film just added Jimmi Simpson to the bloody shenanigans.
I recognize Simpson as one of the two disgusting McPoyle brothers on "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia", but the actor has an extensive filmography, appearing in such genre flicks as STAY ALIVE, ZODIAC and the Stephen King-penned mini-series "Rose Red". He'll soon be seen in Joe Lynch's KNIGHTS OF BADASSDOM.
Simpson, incidentally, will play Abe Lincoln's right hand man.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN: VAMPIRE HUNTER is about to begin production in Louisiana; it has a JUNE 22, 2012 release date.
I'm guessing Mrs. Lincoln never looked quite like this

8 simple rule for dating my teenage
It does not happen often, however, to light-hearted sitcom families, and incorporating the Ritter character's passing is uncomfortable terrain.After some playful banter among the kids reminding us what the series had been about, Cate (Katey Sagal) receives a phone call, learning that her husband Paul has collapsed at the grocery store.Fathers may suspect it's not easy for their daughters to become women, but those same daughters have no idea how hard it is for fathers to stand by and watch. Bruce Cameron, "Having a child mutate into a teenager is a bit like being an airline passenger who must suddenly take over for a stricken pilot and land the plane.And in this case, the passengers are all yelling, 'I hate you! ' and slamming the door to the cockpit." Cameron has two daughters, so he is doubly aware that raising teenage girls is well, impossible.The show was a moderate success, ranked 43rd for its first season on the air, and was renewed with an average of 10.85 million viewers. He's not pleased and gets his revenge on Bridget by detaining her on the school's unofficial day off.As you may recall, Ritter died unexpectedly after completion of the third episode of season two. Rory is planning to take full advantage of Ditch Day while Kerry expects that her classes will continue as usual.Kerry: He thinks of me as some sort of virgin spinster, like Miss Havisham.(Bridget has a confused look on her face) Great Expectations…? C: Referring to rapper Fiddy Cent as "Fifty Cents"? So you see, the previous generation isn't always so wise. Your grandmother always cooked the pot roast in a little pan, so one day your mother asked her why. Yesterday, she was like, "I love your vintage jacket. Paul: I just got off the phone with Carter Tibbits, NASCAR legend. (Kyle and Rory ignore him and continue playing video games) Riveted. Cate: (reading Paul's last article) Okay readers, today we're having a little pop quiz, it's multiple choice, so sharpen your number 2 pencils and put your thinking caps on. Here's a quote: "Dad, you're an idiot." Now, contestants, this was said to me because of which of the following transgressions? Now do you know how many times I called my father an idiot? Because I know that whenever they insult me whether it's a "You're an idiot," "You're a geek," or an "I hate you," an "I love you" isn't far behind. He would of definetly sent me up stairs to change and tell me to cover myself up in some hideous sweater and then give me a one hour lecture on how I should respect myself and how guys are only out for one thing and I always hated when he did that! Bridget: I mean, how could I have taken on the role of Anne Frank? I mean, I came up here to see what it was like to be her.
(which co-stars Ritter's son Jason), the show averaged just 6.8 million and fell to 94th for the season. promise that they won't tell the kids, just in case it doesn't turn out to be serious. Rory and Kerry enter and ask to borrow the mini-van (to steal the goat). The two steal the mascot and hide it upstairs in their house, where it eats Cate's green sweater and stinks up the place. Surprisingly, they're all okay with it and Cate feels much better. Then, Ed calls and tells her that he's been offered a great position as a headmaster of a school in New York. She moves the phone call upstairs while the rest of the family are left to wonder what's going on.Widowed mom Cate Hennessy raises three teens in this sitcom, which shifted focus in 2003 following the sudden death of its star, John Ritter, just before the start of its second season.Cate's father Jim (James Garner) joined the show and helped the family adjust to the loss. So I went to my great grandmother and asked her why SHE cut the ends off the pot roast, and she said, "because the pan was too small". I mean, you know, he's older and he goes to the naval academy instead of his school, and then Danielle's going to this party this weekend, she's all, "You better be there," and I'm all, "Uh, yeah," but Donny's all, "Oh, no, I don't want to share you," which is actually very sweet when you think about it, but it's just the sort of thing that Danielle's gonna use against me, and then (points at Cate) you have to go and exacerbate the whole thing by teaching sex ed at my school! And my wife reassures me this is a good thing over and over and over, and she's always right. Well my house would be quieter, and I'd spend a lot less time in the bathroom, but no. Bridget: I know you never see this side of me, but it's true. So I went to my grandmother and asked why SHE cut the ends off the pot roast, and she said, "because that's what my mother did". Bridget: So, people already perceive my dating Donny Doyle as a slap in the face! Back then we didn't share our deep personal feelings, our deepest conversations usually revolved around the Tigers bull pen. There's not a feeling that my kids are afraid to express over and over and over.

Citizens Trust Bank Relocates its Corporate Offices
Jan 25, 2016, 17:40 ET from Citizens Trust Bank
ATLANTA, Jan. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --Citizens Trust Bank recently announced plans to move its corporate offices on January 29, 2016. The new office will be approximately two miles from its current location.
For Citizens Trust Bank, a community financial institution mainstay for 95 years, the new office space means improved customer service, new amenities for employees and room for growth.
Citizens Trust Bank will now occupy the entire top floor of a multi-tenant office building located in the heart of downtown Atlanta, Georgia. "The new floor plan will provide greater efficiency in how we serve our customers. As we started to outgrow our current office, departments became dispersed among different floors and suites throughout the building. We are now able to position our entire corporate service departments in the same area of the new building. We expect this to improve internal and external communication and most importantly our speed in responding to customers' requests," said President and CEO, Cynthia N. Day.
"We are fortunate to find such a nice space so close to our current office. We really wanted to limit the impact that relocation could have on our customers and our associates. I don't think we could have found a better location for our team. Our new location and enhanced operational efficiencies will help us continue to grow and evolve to keep pace with our customers' needs, allowing us to provide exceptional value and superior service along the way," said Day.
Construction of the new space is slated to be complete near the end of January. Citizens Trust Bank will move in to the 230 Peachtree building location; and, as of Monday, February 1, 2016 the address of the new corporate offices of Citizens Trust Bank will be:
230 Peachtree Street, NW, Suite 2700
Atlanta, Georgia 30303.
The Citizens Trust Bank financial center will remain at the historical 75 Piedmont Avenue location. All of the Citizens Trust Bank phone numbers, fax numbers and email addresses will remain the same.

Introduction: Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common paediatric malignant brain neoplasm. 30 % of patients will reccur and die of their tumour. TP53 mutations confer radiation resistance; we have recently demonstrated that somatic mutations in TP53 are predictive of poor survival in patients with MB. Patients with both TP53 and WNT activating CTNNB1 (β-catenin) mutations demonstrate improved survival compared to patients with TP53 mutations alone. WNT pathway is abrogated in 10% of MB. Lithium Chloride (LiCl) treatment constitutively activates WNT pathway by inhibition of Gsk3β-mediated degradation of β-catenin. Radiation therapy is key treatment in MB; hence we hypothesized that activation of WNT/β-catenin signalling can rescue radiation resistance of TP53 mutant phenotype, sensitize MB cells to radiation and can be achieved with administration of LiCl. Methods: Human MB, TP53 wild type (wt) and mutant (mut), all CTNNB1 wt cell lines were used to investigate radiation response and effect of LiCl on cell survival by clonogenic assays. Functional roles of TP53 and CTNNB1 mutations in response to LiCl/radiation treatments were assessed by transfection of mutant genes on a wild type background. Double strand (DS) DNA damage-repair was assessed by γH2AX immunofluorescence (IF). Normal neuronal stem cells were used to assess effects of LiCl/radiation on normal brain tissue by clonogenic assay. Results: TP53 mut MB cells were resistant to radiation compared to TP53 wt cells by clonogenic assay (p<0.01), accompanied by more efficient DNA damage response manifested by lower numbers of γH2AX foci. Transfection of R175H dominant-negative TP53 mutation to wt cells resulted in increased clonogenic potential post-radiation (p<0.01). MB cells transfected with CTNNB1 S33Y mutation revealed increased radiosenstivity especially in TP53 mut MB (p<0.01). LiCl treatment resulted in nuclear translocation of β-catenin and signalling activation by luciferase assay, which is consistent with activation of WNT pathway. Treatment with LiCl increased radiation sensitivity of both wt and mut TP53 cells (p<0.01; p<0.05 respectively), accompanied by increased DS DNA damage and delayed repair in both lines by γH2AX IF. LiCl treatment of normal neuronal stem cells did not sensitize them to radiation suggesting that LiCl is a tumour specific treatment. Conclusions: Constitutive activation of β-catenin by LiCl sensitizes TP53 mut MB cells to radiation possibly through activation of β-catenin/TCF mediated transcription and impaired DS DNA repair response. These findings may explain survival advantage in CTNNB1 mut MB patients harbouring TP53 mutation. Knowing safety of LiCl and its neuroprotective capacity in normal neuronal cells, oral administration of LiCl may represent an attractive novel therapy for MB patients. Investigations of the molecular mechanisms governing this phenomenon are ongoing.

Snapshots of a Life
Peyton commented recently about how annoyed he gets with some people on Facebook who seem very self-absorbed...constantly posting pictures of themselves, their stuff, ect. It led to some interesting conversation.
First of all, let me acknowledge the obvious: while Peyton and a few other friends use Facebook as basically a "sharing site" for articles, posts, ect. most people I know do not. Most of the people I am friends with on Facebook and Twitter use the forums to share pictures of their kids, updates on their lives, and somewhat frequently, original thoughts on matters of little and great importance. I don't really think there's anything wrong with that, personally. It's interesting to me, actually.
But where the conversation went was about what kind of "picture" we are trying to create of ourselves via social media. Let's face it, however small an audience, my blog allows me to have my own little reality show. In truth, it's rather narcissistic. Let's call it what it is.
This post also got me thinking about perception versus reality. For example, the picture at the top of this post...did I take it because it was a beautiful sunny morning and I was actually enjoying homeschooling my three year old instead of it feeling like I was pulling her toenails off with hot salad tongs..my three year oldwho happened to be wearing one of my favorite soft little cotton dresses and was being just lovely in her interactions with her brother? Or was it because I wanted everyone on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook to see what a charmed life I have with the sunshine! chalk! homeschool binder! sweet little girl! The picture feels very quant, very 1950s nostalgic. [Instagram does have that effect, just a little bit, right?] And I love that. And I want the world to see it. Am I any better than the chick showing off a new pair of pearls in Peyton's feed every night?
And then earlier this week my friend Chandler blogged about how part of the reason a lot of people are sick of Facebook is because they're sick of "faking it". It was interesting because I read it after a super hard day which I had been (selectively, of course) somewhat honest about on social media (in the sense that anybody reading my feed knew I was struggling). I think we all have different levels of transparency that we're comfortable with and of course that's fine!
Another thing that got me thinking was a conversation with a friend about the purpose of my blog. She was asking me about some things I had spent a good deal of time focusing on and I was explaining that in reality, they probably weren't as important to me as my blog would lead others to believe. It was an interesting conversation and I remember explaining it to her in the context of how if I were to take up a new activity (running or gardening, for example) there would likely be a plethora of posts about it and lots of pictures. Part of that is that I'm verbose to a fault. But part of it is the picture I like to present of my life on here. If I take up a new hobby, you can be sure it will be on the blog. Some of that is that I want to document it. But some of it is that I feel like this is my craft and I want to couch the things we do with beautiful words and (attempted) beautiful images. I guess that's no different than a scapbooker or someone writing a memoir, in a way.
Which brings me to something else. I still read (and love) some what I call "scrapbook" style blogs (in that they're recording more events than feelings and thoughts) I used to, but it's probably obvious from my link posts that I have really started to gravitate toward a different style blog, too. It's also probably obvious that my blog has changed over the years and some of that's been intentional and some of it has been something I've been oblivious to until I saw it in hindsight.
I don't really think what I've grown tired of is the lack of authenticity and transparency on these blogs I used to read. It's more that I've just gotten to where they just don't interest me in the way they used to (and I'm not talking about personal friends/blogs I've read forever...those will always interest me because of the connection I feel with those people).
That said, it's really important to me to blog in an authentic way. I'm just speaking to myself here, but I know that I want the picture I present to be a very real one. I've read blogs before (some of them full very deep, beautifully written posts and bright artsy photographs) and I wonder is this your life or is this Candy Land? Which is MY ISSUE. But I don't want that to be the issue of anybody reading my blog. [And when I say it that way it sounds sort of arrogant- no I don't think I take gorgeous photographs or write beautiful prose- y'all know what I mean.] I just do try to capitalize on the beauty in order to convey it better. But I also know that I try to delicately craft beautiful words around tough, broken things, too.
The fact is though, it will only ever be snapshots. Even if it is my deep desire for y'all to see ever facet of our lives here (which, know that it's not....not every facet), I could never succeed. We've probably all read the quote about comparing our "behind the scenes" with everyone else's "highlight reels". The thing is, in this place, I really strive to show both within the boundaries that I (and Peyton...and someday my kids) feel comfortable with. But it will still always be only a snapshot.

i love that you think about these things. and i love the last paragraph. so, so, true. snapshots- only snapshots. but i love that a simple snapshot can bring forth different emotions, memories, and feelings for each person that sees it.

Okay interesting thoughts. I think the same thing as Peyton about fb though I think a way to break self absorption is to be interested in the lives of others. Comment on their "snapshots." Encourage them. Post things to make them laugh or think.
I see your blog as a scrapbook type blog. Documenting your life. It's very interesting to me. I am very interested in people and like to know all about them. I would like to encourage you though to put more time into your more reflective, literary writing. Maybe even consider dropping one of your regular posts to devote more time to creative writing. The pieces you write on occasion that are heartfelt are so good and they really showcase your writing style, which I love. Anyway, it's not a criticism at all of the regular posts about your life, children, events, interests, etc. Im always interested in SD! Just an encouragement to explore that other type of writing as well because it's so meaningful when you do. I guess I would call it more of a free writing.

Our youngest has a birthday in about a week. If you'll think with me, this is very soon after Christmas! I try my best to plan ahead, be on top of this, and put everything into her special day...then reality happens, and well, it's Christmas! I have a couple tricks to pull this birthday party thing off, one of which is actually setting the date and time for the party, and then letting our friends and family know this information, and that they may receive an invitation soon. Hopefully.
Tonight I finished up the envelopes, so mailing everything tomorrow will not be a problem. I love handmade invitations. Yes, pre-made from the stationary store can be fabulous, but there's something about choosing the font and formatting, and printing, and then deciding on that perfect envelope...I just love it all.
I decided on plain dark pink paper for the invitation itself, and then I found this darling paper at my favorite paper store, The Paper Crown, and decided it had to be the envelope...
I looked through my box of stationary and found an envelope the invitation would fit in, then I carefully opened it all the way up to a flat piece of paper...
traced around it and cut it out,
then I carefully folded in the flaps and glued the edges down,
and woohoo! Don't you wish one of these darlings was arriving in your mailbox?!?!

I found this during my reading for The Grand Sweep. Enjoy!
Psalm 16:1-5, 9-11 (The Message)
Keep me safe, O God,
I've run for dear life to you.
I say to God, "Be my Lord!"
Without you, nothing makes sense.
And these God-chosen lives all around-
what spendid friends they make!
Don't just go shopping for a god.
Gods are not for sale.
I swear I'll never treat god-names
like brand-names.
I'm happy from the inside out,
and from the outside in, I'm firmly formed.
You cancelled my ticket to hell-
that's not my destination!
Now you've got my feet on the life path,
all radiant from the shining of your face.
Ever since you took my hand,
I'm on the right way.
Grace & Peace

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 473414
Pidgin event sounds crackle when using Pulseaudio
Last modified: 2009-12-18 01:59:57 EST
Description of problem:
Whenever Pidgin plays an event sound it pops at least once. It might be related to Pulseaudio, because on OSS4 it didn't have any problems.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run Pidgin
2. Select a contact of choice
3. Type a message and send it (with a sound assigned to this event)
Actual results:
The sound pops.
Expected results:
The sound should play glitch-free.
Additional info:
Other apps like amsn don't have this problem.
I've seen this since back before Pulseaudio. I find that changing the sound method to Command (Sounds tab in Preferences) and supplying
play %s
as the command alleviates this.
How is amsn outputting sound? pidgin's default is to output through gstreamer, which outputs through pulseaudio, which outputs through ALSA.
"play" is not ideal because it uses OSS output, which might work, except it grabs the entire sound device causing everything else to fail. You should try "aplay" instead which outputs directly to ALSA. ALSA's default device is pulseaudio. No crackling then?
play (i.e., sox) does use ALSA and mixes fine in Pulseaudio. Using aplay produces garbage as it can't handle Ogg Vorbis. I hear no crackling with the GNOME event sounds.
Still an issue with F-10 plus all updates?
Not observed in pidgin-2.6.1-1.fc11.x86_64.
I still have this issue on some machines, f-10 w/all updates. as mentioned in comment #1, using play/aplay works fine...
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora
'version' of '10'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version'
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.
Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this
bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version,
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.
The process we are following is described here:
Fedora 10 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-12-17. Fedora 10 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.
If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.
Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.

They knocked down that great sycamore. It's not so many days ago now.
A small solemn crowd had gathered and stood watching from a respectful distance. Two of them took photographs. Hard-hatted people had brought a machine on treads up to the base of the tree. The machine had a great jointed arm with pincers at the end like a lobster's claw. They'd used it to tear great holes in the trunk, low down, and then push against it higher up, where the largest limbs branched away in all directions.
The tree fought valiantly in that non-violent way trees have. The hollow trunk twisted as they pushed it with the claw and then sprang back when. Cracks spiraled up the turning wood. I winced to see the white and rosy inner wood come into to the light. I don't suffer from pangs of sympathy in woodshops. I have no visceral reaction to sawdust. But I eat meat, and I do not like seeing animals in pain. Living flesh, then, is the matter.
When the roots finally gave, the crowd dispersed. A few of them exchanged glances, both pained and sympathetic.

Bailing out Wall Street, letting everyone else rot
Talk about warped priorities! The government puts up $29 billion as a "sweetener" for JP Morgan but can only come up with $4 billion for Cleveland, Detroit and other urban ruins. Even the mortgage-relief bill is a tepid gesture. It basically asks, but does not compel, the bankers to act kindlier toward millions of defaulting families.The whole thing, which rings quite true to us, can be found here.
A generation of conservative propaganda, arguing that markets make wiser decisions than government, has been destroyed by these events. The interventions amount to socialism, American style, in which the government decides which private enterprises are "too big to fail." Trouble is, it was the government itself that created most of these mastodons--including the all-purpose banking conglomerates.

When it rains, all the toads come out, hopping around like they own the backyard. In an effort not to step on one last night, I slipped on the deck and fell into a puddle as Kiah looked on and the toad hopped precariously close to the entrance of my house. I blacked out for at least twenty minutes.
Sometimes I don't like her.

The Rabinal Achí is a Maya theatrical play written in the K'iche' language[1] and performed annually in Rabinal, Baja Verapaz, Guatemala. Its original name is Xajoj Tun, meaning "Dance of the Trumpet".[2] This is one of the few surviving performance pieces from before colonization. It takes place every year on January 25th and involves the entire community of Rabinal. A combination of movement, song, and instrumentation meld the piece together. This performance has been a part of Rabinal history for centuries, and continues to be a part of the culture today. The story of the Rabinal Achí centers on a historical feud between Rabinal and K'iche', two neighboring cities.[3] Colorful costumes and wooden masks are used to differentiate the characters as they play out their roles in the song-dance-drama.[4]
The Rabinal Achí is a Maya song-dance-drama from the fifteenth century that uses vibrant costumes and wooden masks to tell the story of the community and its history through myths of origin while also addressing popular and political subjects concerning the inhabitants of the region of Rabinal, expressed through masked dance, theatre, and music. The instrumentation used is a wooden slit-drum and two trumpets or shawms. Throughout its history, various instruments have been used to create various other effects such as gourds for percussion[3]. The Rabinal Achí has been around since the 1600s, and is traditionally performed on the 25th of January to honor Saint Paul[5], the patron saint of Rabinal[4].
Though Rabinal Achí has been around since the 16th century, it was not formally recorded until much later. The original narrative is by an anonymous author[6], but Charles-Étienne Brasseur de Bourbourg, a French clergyman, translated the original text into French from an Achi narration that the cofrade Bartolo Sis gave him in 1856, though he would not publish this text for ten more years. Bartolo Sis had transcribed the dialogue of the performance six years before. Many texts were lost from the pre-Columbian era, after the land was conquered and the new Spanish culture was imposed, but this text still remains.
The story is told through song and dance by a cast of characters. These characters stand as representations for various Maya communities and villages, and the narrative covers a variety of topics such as Maya nobility and diplomacy, battles between various cities, and the feud that took place between the Rabinaleb and K'iche' people.[7]
The plot of the Rabinal Achí is that of a real conflict that took place between the Rabinaleb and the K'iche' people. The main action of the play explains that four cities were destroyed by K'iche' Achí, the Prince of K'iche', who then tries to kidnap the children of Rabinaleb. Because it is such a serious crime, K'iche' is caught, at which time Rabinaleb reminds K'iche' of all of his feats, both bad and good[8]. K'iche' is tried, and it is ultimately decided that he should be sacrificed. He is reminisces about his native land, but submits to being executed, bringing justice back to Rabinal. [9]
While the cast is large, only five of these characters speak.[3] The movement for the piece is primarily cyclical, which represents the cycle of life and death that K'iche' Achí faces during the drama. The dancers move in a circle while the two princes face off against each other in the middle.[10] The dialogue is likewise repetitive to perpetuate this notion[11]. The performers are called out into the playing area by the beating of the drum. This drum is played by a community member who has been trained on how to play the sacred drum from a young age.
The Rabinal Achí is still performed today every year on January 25th in Rabinal. [12] The cofradías, local brotherhoods, of which Bartolo Sis was part, are in charge of this event. This is a way for the community to remain in touch with their ancestry and to celebrate.[12]
For the Achis of modern-day Rabinal, the Rabinal Achí continues to be performed once a year during the celebration of Saint Paul.
The Rabinal Achí was performed in 1955 by the Dirección General de Bellas Artes. Performers had to abstain from sexual acts for the thirty days prior to and after the performance. They also underwent twenty days of spiritual preparation and were required to request permission from the Mayan gods in order to perform by dancing and offering gifts. [13] For this production, the jaguars and eagles were each represented by one performer as opposed to the usual thirteen.[14]
In 2005, the dance drama from Rabinal was declared one of the Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.

Cavity Creeps...X10
Whenever you think you have dental problems, remember this man: The elderly Israeli man in the photograph is thought to have been infected when he sat down under a tree to sleep. A sarcophagid or 'flesh' fly crawled inside his mouth and deposited its live larvae in the gaps between his gums and teeth.
I will never complain about my teeth again. I'm going to go throw up now.

IGN - Sometimes you hear about a new game coming out and the concept behind it sounds like something plucked from your wildest dreams. It's as if the lead designer was a fly on your wall one night when you were carrying on with your friends about how cool it would be if "some company made a game where you blah blah blah with the XYZ..." Even if it isn't perfect, you do, on some level enjoy it.
I've played it for about an hour so far and I really think it's worth the 8 bucks. For that I wasn't expecting a hardcore RTS experience but instead you get a unique interpretation on an old genre and a solid game underneath.

Salute, Our India
Dasu Krishnamoorty
The country was in great turmoil, responding to Gandhia��s Quit India call. Millions of students walked out of schools and colleges. I was one among them. I was fortunate to belong to the first batch of students to be fed on a diet of an inspiring patriotic epic called Our India, its author Minoo Masani telling us in our own language how it is possible to build a Free India, free from foreign dependence, with resources available in the country, turning the terrain and climate to our advantage. He foresaw the role India would be called upon to play in the ordering and settling of the worlda��s affairs, a role that western nations have appropriated for themselves.
The book electrified a million people to buy it in 1939 when it was released, full of illustrations that looked like wood cuts. It is a classic in many ways, written in basic English and printed in large type It is now available free online in PDF format.
It looked as if the countrya��s visionaries began turning their attention to planning for a Free India at the same time as Masani was drafting his blueprint for Our India. M.Visweswaraih published the first draft of a plan in 1939 titled Planned Economy for India. A year earlier in 1938 as the president of the Congress Subhash Chandra Bose set up a national planning committee headed by Jawaharlal Nehru. In 1944 eight industrialists of Bombay, including J. R. D. Tata, G. D.A� Birla, A. D. Shroff, Ardeshir Dalal, and John Mathai prepared a�?A Brief Memorandum Outlining a Plan of Economic Development for Indiaa�? which was popularly known as the Bombay Plan.
In August 1944, The British government in India set up a Planning and Development Department under the charge of Ardeshir Dalal. In October 1946, the Interim Government headed by Jawaharlal Nehru set up a planning advisory board. A Peoplea��s Plan drafted by M N Roy on behalf of the Indian Federation of Labour was published in 1950. A Sarvodaya Plan drafted by Jaya Prakash Narayan, combining Gandhian perspectives and Sarvodaya ideas of Vinoba Bhave, also came out around the same time.
In March 1950 todaya��s Planning Commission came in pursuance of declared objectives of the Government to promote a rapid rise in the standard of living of the people by efficient exploitation of the resources of the country, increasing production and offering opportunities to all for employment in the service of the community. The Commission was set up by a Resolution of the Government of India.
Masani wrote every word with a view to galvanize a young nation to action. The book fittingly opens with a reference to the heart of Indiaa��s strength, its population of 440 million at the time the book was written. Naturally, there was no mention of family planning. On the other hand Masani encourages us to take pride in our numbers. The entire book is drivenA�A� by optimism and love of the country based on realities.
Masani was a barrister who gave up practice to join the freedom movement. He was twice imprisoned. He was one of the founders of the Congress Socialist Party along with such stalwarts as Jaya Prakash Narayan, Achyut Patwardhan, Ram Manohar Lohia, Asoka Mehta and Yousuf Mehrally. A�He was a member of the Constituent Assembly and also a member of its Fundamental Rights sub-committee. In later years Masani helped Rajaji start the Swatantra Party which in its early days made impressive electoral gains to become the main opposition party in Parliament.. His life included a romantic interlude when he eloped to Ceylon (Sri Lanka) with Sakuntala Devi, daughter of Viceroya��s Executive Council member J.P.Srivastava. He raised a controversy, campaigning for ethunasia. He was also bold enough to call for a demobilization of starved and useless cattle, ruffling Hindu sentiment.
Masani says India has everything — the resources, for a country to develop and substantiates his theory by statistics. Only, we do not know what to do with them and how. Though his material and monetary statistics are of pre-independence vintage they are useful as points of comparison and for assessing performance. That the book was written years before independence explains why Sind and parts of Punjab and undivided Bengal figure frequently in it.
He is pained by the condition of the Indian peasant and lists the problems confronting him and offers simple solutions, as simple as home remedies. Masani tells the peasant how to manage his land to yield more through rotation of crops, how the dung he wastes as kitchen fuel can be used as manure, and thus increase the yield. He warns of the vagaries of monsoon and suggests tapping underground water by digging wells and tanks and how pumps, tractors and threshers can be collectively owned and how small chunks of land can be made viable by integration under a co-operative. He points to the role of government in lending money to the farmer pending harvest. Successive governments have done a lot to alleviate the condition of the farmer. Despite that, there are suicides.
Masani has never relented from his conviction that the Indian can achieve anything that others had. It is this belief in ourselves that helped us conquer space and harness the atom without foreign inputs. Its importance can be understood by the fact that India had to wait in line for launching its satellites from foreign launching pads, delaying the benefits to the country of valuable information gathered in space. Masani has highlighted the faultlines and also ways to negate them. For several reasons, Our India is a modest classic. Appropriately he writes the Finis by quoting Iqbala��s immortal melody Sare Jahan Se Achcha Hindostan hamara.

DUNOLLY. COTTAGE BURNT DOWN. On Saturday afternoon a destructive fire occurred at the residence of Mr and Mrs James Smith, Old Lead, about a mile north of the town. Mr Smith had lit a fire in the front room, and put on a kettle to boil, leaving the house for a few minutes to go to his son's house. It is thought a piece of wood rolled out. While returning, a girl told him a fire had broken out in his house. he hurried home, and with much difficulty obtained a few articles of furniture and wearing apparel, but everything else was destroyed. The building was a five-roomed structure of Egyptian brick and hessian ceiling. Some of the walls are standing. The building and furniture were insured for £175.

Prophet Daniel Nkansah
The robbery trial of Prophet Daniel Nkansah, a failed presidential hopeful and founder of the New Vision Pentecostal Church, took a dramatic turn yesterday when his counsel, C.A. Chambers, for the second time, abandoned him in the dock.
It may be recalled that some weeks ago, Mr. Chambers, who had earlier told his client that he would be in the court at 1:30 pm to continue with the cross-examination of Stephen Ped Andam, the complainant in the case, eventually failed to turn up.
Probably moved by the action of his lawyer, Prophet Nkansah asked if Inspector Emmanuel Afful, the prosecutor in the case, would allow him (Prophet Nkansah) to cross-examine Ped Andam himself.
At the hearing of the case yesterday, the matter was not different.
Prophet Nkansah's counsel was nowhere to be found, compelling him (Nkansah) to cross-examine Joseph Odame Fynn, the second prosecution witness in the trial.
The cross-examination by the controversial man of God, interspersed with objections by the judge and the prosecution, lasted over 20 minutes.
Police Inaction
Prophet Nkansah said he had brought the other accomplices in the case to rescue his son from the hands of the complainant because the police had failed to respond to his son's complaint which was earlier lodged at the Darkuman Police Station and later at the Dansoman Police Station.
According to him, his son, like any other citizen has the right to defend himself during an attack, insisting that the guys he brought were members of his church.
The failed presidential hopeful told the court, presided over by Francis Obiri, that the charge of robbery preferred against him had been framed up by the witness and his boss (Ped Andam) in order to malign him.
He was emphatic that none of his accomplices took anything from the offices of the complainant.
"Your own workers might have stolen those items from office and not my men," he argued.
'Report Well'
Seconds after he had been whisked away by officers of the Prison Service, he told the DAILY GUIDE reporter in the court, "Go and report, go and report my cross-examination. Go and report well."
The controversial man of God is facing six counts of conspiracy to rob and robbery with his son, Daniel Boahene Nkansah Jnr, and eight others – two of whom are currently at large.
They are said to have robbed Andam on February 1 of his Samsung S4, iPhone, Dell laptop with charger, cheque books, international driver's licence, certificates, iPad 32GB and GH¢55,000.
Prophet Nkansah, in connivance with his son and the 10 others, are also alleged to have made away with a Blackberry Q10 mobile phone and GH¢500 belonging to one Geshon Essel, while another person, Billy Apeku Ken, also claims his Samsung mobile phone, Dell laptop and GH¢750 are missing.
The fourth complainant, Isaac Tetteh Korgbey, is also accusing the man of God and the 11 others of stealing his Dell laptop and Sony video camera. One Emmanuel Nana Kwaku Badu has also complained of his missing wallet containing GH¢1,000 and ID cards.
Prophet Nkansah, his son and the others have all pleaded not guilty to the charges.
Sitting continues tomorrow.

I had to force myself away from my studio this afternoon. I could tell I had been working too much and needed to stretch my legs and clear my head for a bit. For being the middle of a heat wave it was actually a very pleasant day. Little over cast, nice breeze, but very humid. So I had to take a picture of these palm trees on the way back to remind myself when we are dyeing in August that it will be pleasant once again in a month or two. BTW... thank you Instagram for making all my pictures look amazing.

As the managing editor of Today's Chicago Woman and a woman under 30, I'm often asked by people, most often college students and other young women, my secret to success in the industry. How did I "make it" at a young age? How did I get my break? What advice would I give other aspiring writers and editors?
The truth is there is no secret, but what I usually say is this: Getting your "break" in the publishing industry is a trifecta of timing, connections and preparedness. That is:

...but I don't know how much longer I can do stuff like this.
Last night I went with Rachel, Hannah, Chip and Simon to the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince here in Gilbert Arizona. It was a great movie, even though the end was a bit anti-climactic, and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I did not however enjoy The lack of sleep I received as a result of this activity. I got to sleep around 3:30am and woke up at 4:50am. Apparently Asher thought that it was time to get up. He usually sleeps til at least 7:00am, today was just my lucky day I guess.
Anyway, thanks to Rachel for the good time and the picture. Thanks to the Harry Potter actors for being amazing especially Luna, Ron, Harry (who had some delightfully nutty moments in this one) and Snape. I already can't wait to see the next one.

THE plans by one Oluigboka Emmanuel Chukwuemeka to become rich overnight has ended up in detention, as he has been arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in connection with 2.472kg of cocaine hidden inside jewelry.
The 33-year-old suspect, according to the anti-narcotic agency, arrived from Brazil aboard a KLM flight and was intercepted at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos.
The agency said powdery substances that tested positive for cocaine were found in his bag of jewelry during search, adding that it took several hours to extract the cocaine from the jewelry because of the complex method of concealment.
Speaking on the latest discovery, NDLEA Airport Commander, Mr. Hamza Umar, said the drug was factory-packed inside assorted jewelry.
"This mode of concealment is strange and it is the first time of discovering drugs inside jewelry.
"The drugs were industrially packed in ear rings, buttons, necklaces, bangles, as well as in female belts.
"We had to forcefully open them to recover the drugs. The entire quantity of cocaine found in the jewelry products weighed 2.472kg.
"One arrest has been made in connection with the seizure," Umar stated.
He explained that preliminary investigation revealed that the suspect, who had lived in Brazil for over five years, is believed to be working for a suspected Brazil-based drug syndicate.
However, Chukwuemeka, in his statement, said he was smuggling the drug for a fee.

Mid Life Crisis at 27
Worlds largest chair, or worlds smallest kid?? You decide!! well he's definitely the worlds cutest either way. Sitting up all grown up and holding his head up SO much better.
Well I think I finally came out the other end of my mid life crisis. And just for the record, it was NEVER a "did I make the right decision having a kid" crisis. It was more of a "3 years from 30 what the hell am I doing with my life" crisis. After Cooper came, I suddenly felt a much more heightened sense of responsibility along with a severe choke up on my free time. So of course I'm thinking that I should have done more with my pre-kid years, and now I'll NEVER have time for it. Thus the panic crisis begins.
Luckily, I had an epiphany like never before. Sure I could have gone to med school, or law school, or 5 million other scenarios that would have landed me in a high paying "important" job, but then what would have suffered?? My marriage??My becoming a parent?? My amazing bond with my friends and family?? My guess is all of the above. I can think of so many single moments in my life that LITERALLY molded me to be the person I am today.Without them, who would I be?? And I highly doubt any of those high paying "important" jobs would allow me the flexibility to not only pursue side projects, but also leave work for every ultrasound and Dr appointment for my baby boy. Yeah every single one.
So in closing, I realized that when I look on my life years and years (and years) from now, I'll probably wish I'd done more with my professional career. But as long as I can say that my family and friends ALWAYS came first over all else, I'll have no regrets. I can live with wishing I'd worked more.........................
And I'll probably always be a victim of my own ambition. It's like I have a devil on one shoulder and an angel on the other, only in my situation there's an angel in a three piece suit driving a Lambo with a country club membership on one shoulder, and a crazy tired guy with 10 kids hanging off of him, driving a Mini Van to a soccer game on the other shoulder.
I warned you in my first blog how weird my mind in sometimes, NOW do you believe me??
Till next time.......................

Today's world is a downward spiral for carriers with freight rates becoming more and more volatile and shipment downfalls reaching 24-30% on TP Eastbound sailings and 60% on TP Westbound sailings. This strains carriers who end up bearing the full cost of booking downfalls and have been made responsible for shippers' and forwarders' shipment risks.
Downfalls and volatility cost the industry more than $23B a year—but reversing these trends presents the industry with tremendous economic potential.
In today's digital world, many of your customers are calling for digital contracting. NYSHEX allows you to give your customers
a digital contracting option that is secure, fully compliant and intuitive.
Now carriers can offer secure forward contracts through the New York Shipping Exchange. The NYSHEX Forward, traded exclusively on NYSHEX, discourages downfalls by charging shippers a penalty for failing to fulfill the details of contracts.
The NYSHEX Forward features fixed rates that enable you to better manage your revenue. Fixed rates also save you the time and resources required to requote spot rates that are continuously changing.
Currently, carriers are required to base major investments on network plans, service contracts and forecasts that are highly unreliable. By providing space protection, The NYSHEX Forward supports your reliable cargo flows. That assists you in your planning and uptake management.
Freight payments are made immediately by NYSHEX—so you no longer have to wait for shippers to pay you, improving working capital and avoiding bad debt.
Become a member and start offering secured contracts that prevent downfalls and enable dynamic pricing.JOIN NOW

Horror stories from New Orleans have been reported by news media. Tales of rape and murder and tens of thousands of dead bodies appeared frequently. These were not true stories but they exposed many in the media for what they were thinking, or for what they wanted to believe.
For one thing, such stories fitted an unfortunate pattern news media people seem carry around. It is that "This is what black people do." Pure racist baloney. The folks caught up in the hurricane in New Orleans were, for the most part, just hard-working, God-fearing people like almost everybody else. It appears that to the media, they were Southerners (horrors!), some were black (don't know any better!) and poor (probably stupid). Therefore, the horror stories were not checked for reality. They were just reported as true.
Recently, some newspapers began to chide other media people for their sloppy work (but not their assumptions).
Why did media people want the outlandish stories to be reinforced and reported? Many in the media were trying to make the Washington, D.C. administration look bad. They actively support an opposing political platform. There is the mental pattern among them that "everybody knows" the people in Washington do not care about its poor citizens. Well, at least the media know that, if not quite everybody else.
I hope people have figured out by by now that many media people have an agenda underlaid by false assumptions.

Soon to be published, with a foreword by Quentin Wilson
Set browsers to bookmark. You may not need it today, maybe not tomorrow. But someday soon, and for the rest of your life. This could be the definitive pub discussion referee - well that is if your pub discussions are anything like mine.
The Internet Movie Cars Database aims to be the most complete list on the web about cars, bikes, trucks and other vehicles seen in movies and on telly, and not just 'featured artists' either it logs the automotive bit parts and extras too. And it certainly seems pretty thorough, there are 84 pages of Dodges alone and it's growing all the time.
Thank Bob that in the internet we've stumbled upon an outlet for a certain type of bloke (and lets not fool ourselves it's always a bloke) to sort, list, arrange and file masses of trivia - so that we can conclusively state that Lovejoy featured three different models of Brough Superior as well as a Charger and a Montego amongst an enormous range of interesting tackle.

With the Aussie dollar the way it is, I've been shopping! 5 times even !! Check this out...Isn't it delicious ? I wonder if it will replace the other pink one I bought once and couldn't bear to cut up, so it's on the spare bed, or the white one I bought another time that I couldn't cut up and it's on my bed...mmmm what to do ?

Today's Results!
We got a little bit side-tracked, as my nieces came to visit! We finished Riley's new dog bed, and got a start on the shirt this week. The bed is ENORMOUS, but it's super cute and fluffy and he seems to like it :)

Elementary schools differ in many ways—even within the same district—but new principals can follow leadership practices in keeping the focus on teaching and learning every school day.
Inquiry-based learning means asking questions that demand students use evidence from the text to support their thinking. It means challenging students to respond to the differing ideas of their classmates. And it means pushing students to further their own thinking.
As one of today's most promising models for instruction, blended learning is growing rapidly across the country. But what really is blended learning, and how can educators use it to improve student outcomes?
Teaching is losing its magic. Every year, the profession loses some of our most effective colleagues prematurely. Moreover, we fail to attract enough college graduates who have the talent and passion for teaching.
School districts have struggled for many years with the escalating cost of healthcare. Do you have to reduce benefits to be affordable? Do you have to shift costs between the district and the employee? Is there a better way? In Colorado Springs School District 11, we think we have found one.
Many teachers find themselves isolated in classrooms without the right training or support. Others receive only one or two afternoons of PD per year. The need for more effective professional development for teachers is especially important right now, with new academic standards being introduced across the country.
Local companies told the Tri-Rivers Career Center, a voc-tech high school in Ohio, there weren't enough skilled workers entering the trades, especially manufacturing. So the career center launched the Robotics & Advanced Manufacturing Technology Education Collaborative to help meet skilled labor needs.

It's hard to believe considering her parents - heck 99% of her relatives (save for Great Aunt R but she always has been "different") - well, how does she become left when all her cues and examples have been demonstrated to the contrary?
Nay, despite the representations set before her, Bumper is 100% left.
We noticed it very early on.
From the get go she just took things differently - basically the exact opposite way we would have done it.
Bumper approached everything differently.
Yup - our daughter is inexplicably left-handed and we "righties"* just don't know how to deal with it.
* in ability not that political mumbo-jumbo witchcraft - but I was raised to not discuss "that" topic on my site lest you be eating dinner while enjoying my post and then you get all "what a rude blogger" on my butt. Don't even get me started on religion.
I googled leftorium and much to my
Oh crap. Will she need special equipment when she goes to school? Are we going to have to fill out paperwork to request this stuff?
Are we going to have to join the school parenty participation thingy to ensure she isn't left behind - because we are the kind of parents that don't want to be too ... ummm... for lack of a better word "be involved"? It would seriously cut into our social lives*.

Back when I was in grade school, there was always at least one kid who arrived at the first day and started
OK - I'm totally kidding.
Not about my OCD-side but about the entire left-handed thing. No hate mail / comments please.
I love and respect both hands and all their wonderful abilities. I really, really do. Feel the love with which ever hand you want to use.
So yah - big deal, Bumper's left handed.
According to my
