BUTLER TWP — Snow and ice proved hazardous this morning when an ambulance with a patient spun out of control and slammed into a guardrail while traveling up Armco hill on Route 8.
An attending nurse for Lifestat Ambulance Service suffered minor injuries but apparently no one else aboard was hurt in the rush-hour wreck that caused a traffic backlog for several miles.
"The (ambulance) was southbound, hit an icy spot and spun around," said Butler County Sheriff Mike Slupe, who assisted Butler Township police and South Butler volunteer firefighters.
Butler Ambulance Service was called to treat and examine the Lifestat crew.
The patient who was en route to a Pittsburgh hospital was taken away in another ambulance.
Police are investigating the accident that occurred about 7:45. a.m. A report was not immediately available.
The hill was so slick that police had to call the state Department of Transportation to salt the road. A PennDOT truck came through with its salt spreader just after 8 a.m.

Brewers - 202 000 000 - 4 8 1 Red Sox - 020 000 000 - 2 9 1Lester (8-7-4-3-8, 115) struggled early, giving up home runs to Rickie Weeks and Corey Hart on his third and fourth pitches of the night. (His second pitch, a 1-0 offering to Weeks, actually should have resulted in the first out. Adrian Gonzalez and Jarrod Saltalamacchia both chased Weeks's pop-up over by the Red Sox dugout, but there was confusion about who was calling for it, and the ball hit off Gonzalez's glove for an error as he tried a last-second basket catch.)
Plus, Lester's fifth pitch was drilled for a double by Ryan Braun. But in the span of four pitches, the threat was over, as Prince Fielder flied to left and Casey McGehee lined into a 5-4 double play.
It was only the third tme in his career Lester had allowed a leadoff home run to his first batter (Hanley Ramirez, July 2, 2006; Ian Kinsler, April 1, 2011) and the first time it had happened at Fenway. It was the second time Lester has given up back-to-back homers (Johnny Damon and Mark Teixeira, May 4, 2009).
In the Brewers third, George Kottaras hit a dong and Lester, after getting two outs, suddenly lost his control. He walked Braun on five pitches, walked Fielder on four, and fell behind McGehee 3-0, before McGehee singled in Milwaukee's fourth run.
Boston had tied the game in the second against Wolf (7-9-2-1-3, 111). Kevin Youkilis doubled and David Ortiz walked. After Darnell McDonald lined out to third and Marco Scutaro was called out on strikes, Saltalamacchia and Mike Cameron had RBI-singles.
After that, though, the bats were fairly dormant. Singles in the third by Yook and Tiz with two down went for naught as McDonald struck out. Scutaro doubled to lead off the fourth but was stranded there. Yook reached on an error by Fielder to open the eighth, but Ortiz rapped into a 3-6-3 DP.
Wolf has allowed two earned runs or fewer in 10 of his 14 starts this season, and five of his last six starts.
Home Cooking: The Red Sox have 10+ hits in each of their last four home games (batting .340) and have homered in each of their last 11 games at Fenway. They have won 12 of their last 16 home games.
In his last 11 home games, David Ortiz is hitting .511 (23-for-45). Adrian Gonzalez is hitting .533 (24-for-45) in his last 10 games at Fenway.
Overall, Gonzalez has reached base in 17 straight games, with a batting line of .415/.500/.846 (1.346 OPS). Of his 27 hits, 15 have gone for extra-bases: eight doubles, one triple, six home runs. ... In 26 games since May 20, Evil Bert is hitting .415/.471/.698. ... Gonzalez leads the American League with 99 hits; he also has 999 career hits.
AL East: Yankees/Cubs at 4 PM; Marlins/Rays and Blue Jays/Reds at 7 PM.

Starting the New Year with a positive message is Xamarin Inc., who has detailed the recent release of a new tool designed to allow C# programmers build native Mac OS X apps.
Known as Xamarin.Mac, this new offering's base function exposes the native Objective-C Cocoa API — and this could be big news if you do the math.
As the company suggests, this pretty much means that the scope of the C# language could be broadened to as many as 2.2 billion devices across the Windows, iOS (and wider Mac), and Android markets. So that's 1.2 billion Windows devices, and using Xamarin, 1 billion Android, iOS, and Mac devices.
Xamarin.Mac allows developers to build fully native Cocoa applications for Mac OS X with C#. The company says that the new release exposes native platform APIs, making it possible for developers to build apps that integrate with Mac platform conventions and leverage platform-specific functionality.
According to the official Xamarin blog, "Unlike other cross-platform development toolkits that target OS X, Xamarin.Mac gives you the flexibility to build anything that you can build with a conventional Objective-C-based Cocoa application — from compelling CoreAnimation-enabled user interfaces to custom menubar items. Under the hood, you can choose the combination of .NET library functionality and native Mac OS X APIs that works best for your application."
For more on Xamarin, see Mike Riley's Review of Xamarin.Mac Professional.

SCOTTSBORO, Ala. -This summer was one of the worst in recent memory for lost luggage and mishandled bags. Increased security procedures combined with a shortage of baggage handlers and a record number of passengers has created a perfect storm for travellers, leaving millions of bags damaged, delayed, pilfered, or outright lost forever at airports around the globe.
Airlines are obligated to hold on to lost bags for at least 90 days, but after that, they are free to dispose of them anyway they see fit.
While more than 99% of the mishandled bags are returned to their rightful owners within five days, according to industry statistics, it raises the question, what happens to the rest?
If the bag was lost by a Canadian airline, like WestJet Airlines Ltd. or Air Canada, its contents went to charity.
If the bag was lost in the U.K., it likely had its contents auctioned off. But if it was lost in the U.S., it likely found its way to Scottsboro, Ala.
Tucked in the rural foothills of Northeast Alabama is the Unclaimed Baggage Center, a small purgatory for luggage lost by U.S. airlines. Located along a stretch of highway that has more baptist churches than gas stations, it has become a destination for nearly a million bargain hunters a year who drive to the rural region searching for deals.
The Unclaimed Baggage Center has earned Scottsboro the unofficial honour of being the Lost Luggage Capital of the World. "We have people who come from every state in the country, and many, many countries across the globe," said Brenda Cantrell, the center's director of sales and marketing. "It is a little off the beaten path, but that's part of the mystique of what we are."
And business has been good. In July, U.S. carriers misplaced on average 7.93 bags per 1,000 passengers, compared to 3.84 for the same month in 2002, according to the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics. More mishandled bags means more inventory at the centre, Ms. Cantrell said.
And the United States is not alone in its troubles this summer. British Airways, which uses London's Heathrow Airport as its major hub, misplaced on average 28 bags for every 1,000 customers in the second quarter of this year and has become subject to a multi-million class action suit as a result.
At the root of the problem is increased security precautions for carry-on luggage, including restrictions on gels and liquids limiting them to 3 ounce containers. This has more people than ever checking bags and fewer baggage handlers on the ground as airlines restructured in the post-9/11 era.
WestJet says it only has about 8 to 12 bags that are never claimed of the 1.5 million checked each month with the Calgary-based airline. Like its domestic rival, Air Canada, WestJet gives those bags and contents to charity, according to a company spokesman.
The depot has an exclusive deal with the "majority of U.S. airlines," Ms. Cantrell said, and has no idea what it is buying until it opens the bags up at its processing centre.
It was founded in 1970 by Doyle Owens, who, as the story goes, borrowed a pickup truck and $300 to drive up to Washington, D.C., and pick up his first load of luggage. Mr. Owens hauled the bags back to his rented apartment, sorted them out and quickly sold their contents. He realized he was on to something.
Mr. Owens son, Bryan, now runs the centrer. While it does not disclose how many bags it receives a day, Ms. Cantrell said, it places more than 7,000 new items a day on its shelves.
Thousands of visitors a day come to sift through designer clothing, golf clubs, surf boards, strollers and of course, the luggage itself, which retail for up to $100 for large-sized bag.
Ms. Cantrell said it marks down the items from 80% to 20% discounts depending on the quality of the goods. Nearly 60% of the goods recovered are clothing and the centre also owns the largest dry-cleaning facility in the state.
Over the years, the UBC has acquired its fair share of oddities, including a case full of Egyptian artifacts, including a bronzed burial mask and a mummified falcon. Its also recovered a life-size puppet of Jim Henson's troll-character, Hoggle, from the 1986 fantasy film, Labyrinth. Most of the oddities are housed in a makeshift museum on the property, but some are sold to customers.
"The most expensive item that we've ever sold on the retail side, was a 5.8 carat diamond solitaire ring," Mr. Cantrell said. "It was appraised at $46,000 and we sold it for $23,000."

APTA will match contributions to both of the funds 1:1 up to $5,000. Click here to donate to the New Jersey Chapter's Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Fund. At this time, the New York Chapter has not posted a donation link on its website. APTA will provide a link to the fund when it becomes available. In addition to the chapter-specific relief efforts, the association will donate $1,000 to the American Red Cross. [November 6 Editor's Note: Information about the New York Chapter's relief fund, and an online donation form, now is available on the chapter's website.] Comments I loudly applaud APTA. This is a great start from a great organization! Considering the penetration and span of devastation across practice types, varieties of construction and geographic locations, I hope more chapters will be considered. I also hope the APTA Board will consider higher financial matches per chapter with user friendly and expedient assistance criteria that meet the various needs for practices to quickly get back to serving their patients/clients.

The share of American households with guns has declined over the past four decades, a national survey shows, with some of the most surprising drops in the South and the Western mountain states, where guns are deeply embedded in the culture.
The gun ownership rate has fallen across a broad cross section of households since the early 1970s, according to data from the General Social Survey, a public opinion survey conducted every two years that asks a sample of American adults if they have guns at home, among other questions. (More)

Ferris Angels' Day Off…Sans Feel Good Ending
Mistakes happen. Everyone has a bad day now and then. I'll do better next time. Combine these thoughts with a genuine I'm sorry and, in the real world, all are perfectly valid responses to failures. And, chances are, your boss' annoyance will blow over, you'll learn from your mistake and continue on with your work becoming an even stronger employee for the educational experience. …except when times are tough and, for better or worse, things are coming to an end.
I started working for a well known mortgage bank in 2006, when the industry was still flush. I stayed with that same company for the next four years through a lot of…ah…well…Downturn? Recession? Near depression? I forget what term the economists eventually settled on, but at any rate, it was centered around my industry and it miiiight have stretched just a little bit farther than that to…well…everywhere. Heck, I think it might have even made the news. 😉
Suffice to say, texting my husband who was out of work at the time (same industry) "If the FDIC walks through *****'s doors today, on a scale of 1 to 10, just how screwed are you and I, because judging from the way the execs are behaving today, this is not an if…" is not something I ever want to do again. But that experience, and the two years of layoff musical chairs that followed, did put me a great position to know that when the excrement is hitting the proverbial fan, as human as it is to want a slack day, you take one at your own peril.
And that's what the Angels took Friday night, a slack day. How else does one explain taking such a shellacking from the mighty offensive force that is the Twins lineup without Thome, Morneau, Mauer and Young? Our pitchers throwing balls and giving up walks like they were going out of style? The slumbering bats? The fielding errors? The lackadaisical defense? Total slack day.
Sure, everyone needs a kickback day from time to time. But when you come into work every couple of weeks to find a new, large stack of boxes lining the walls, making it convenient for security to hand them to whole departments or sections at a time for ease of packing up their desks? (And I know all too many of you know just what I mean) Yeah, this would not be the time for a kick back day. This would be the time to bust your ass, going above and beyond for the team. True, it's different for most ballplayers. They make millions of dollars and many of them know they are coming back next season. But, Angels, do you remember how much it absolutely sucked to pack up your lockers in boxes at the end of September last season? Rumors were rife with how grumpy some of you were signing autographs that day and I can understand why. So let's do everything we can to keep those boxes in storage for as long as we can, shall we?
I managed to somehow still have an office chair every time the music stopped.by making myself always useful, accurate, willing to bust my ass and take on an additional duty or three, and through no small amount of luck too. And this is what the Angels need now. No more mistakes. Yes, mistakes are human but when you're close to the end of the season in such dire straits, there simply is no margin for error. No slack days. The Angels can have their fun, but they need to do so while winning every series in September, especially the one against Texas. Sweeping a few would be even better. Hey, I said this was possible, I didn't say it was easy. And managers? The best team needs to be out on the field every day. If we are behind and offensively slacking, switch things up before the 9th inning please. Better yet, put the best bats out there in the first place. And here's the luck part. We need Texas to lose more often than we do. A tall order indeed.
A tall order, but I'm not ready to give up hope yet. I left all residual exasperation from last night on the bike trail this morning. I'm psyched for tonight's game and already hunting for a great deal on tickets for Monday and possibly next weekend. In short, I'm in this until the end. Are you, Angels? How about making us all believe it? Tonight. Sunday. Next week. And right on through September.

Share the love with kids, too
Celebrate Valentine's Day with kids
Valentine's Day is generally thought of as a couples-only holiday, but many forget that it's popular among children, too.
How do you show your kids you love them on Valentine's Day -- or on any day? The American Academy of Pediatrics offers these tips:
Use plenty of positive words with your child. Nurture her self-esteem and self-confidence by praising a job well done, and show interest in what she is saying.
Respond promptly and lovingly to your child's physical and emotional needs and banish put-downs from your parenting vocabulary.
Make an extra effort to set a good example at home and in public. Use words like "I'm sorry," "please," and "thank you."
When your child is angry, argumentative or in a bad mood, give him a hug, cuddle, pat, secret sign or other gesture of affection he favors.
Use nonviolent forms of discipline. Parents should begin instituting both rewards and restrictions many years before adolescence to prevent trouble during the teenage years. Once youngsters reach adolescence, allowing them to break important rules constantly without being disciplined only encourages more rule violations.
Make plans to spend half a day alone with your teen doing something he enjoys.
Mark family game nights on your calendar so the entire family can be together. Put a different family member's name under each date, and have that person choose which game will be played that evening.
Owning a pet can make children with chronic illnesses and disabilities feel better by stimulating physical activity, enhancing their overall attitude, and offering constant companionship.
One of the best ways to familiarize your child with good food choices is to encourage her to cook with you. Let her get involved in the entire process, from planning the menus to shopping for ingredients to the actual food preparation and its serving.
Don't forget to say, "I love you" to children of all ages!

While mutual fund investors have problems over the timing of when they buy and sell funds, they aren't really that "dumb" in the traditional sense, says John Rekenthaler, vice president of research for Morningstar.
Rekenthaler, who spoke on Thursday during the Morningstar Ibbotson Conference 2013 in Hollywood, Fla., told an audience of about 70 guests that the myth of "dumb investors" deserves "close scrutiny."
He and his colleagues looked at why investors were "not making money that one might expect from funds," a conundrum they defined as the "return gap."
Most analysis looks at total returns, which are time weighted, and compares them to investor returns, which are dollar weighted. But the Morningstar experts decided to calculate a money-weighted measure of returns to help them assess a fund's internal rate of return and then compare these numbers with time-weighted returns. The result? A return gap, which could help the analysts better assess investor behavior.
From 2002-2012, the initial research revealed that this gap was 1.01% for domestic-stock funds, 3.11% for international-stock funds, 1.35% for municipal bonds, 0.87% for taxable-bond funds, and 0.84% for allocation funds.
"This doesn't mean that fund investors are 'dumb,' though it is true that the timing of purchases matter," Rekenthaler said.
The Morningstar team then dug deeper to look at whether or not investors were buying the "wrong funds," funds with high charges, poor fund managers or the wrong assets. "These are the four ways to get this wrong," he explained.
The researchers then discovered that investors got fund selection right across the five fund categories (mentioned above). They also concluded that investors were overpaying.
"The expenses are larger than the benefits of their fund selection," said Rekenthaler, implying that there should be continued fee pressure on fund companies.
Other conclusions of the research? Fund managers over all are not buying the wrong securities, but investors are allocating their assets in a less-than-stellar fashion.
The rigorous analysis also found that the return gap combined with investor selection produces an overall gap in investors' performance versus that of index funds of 1.38% for domestic-stock funds.
This is related to expenses (0.72%), the manager (0.33%) and asset allocation (0.33%). "The biggest negative is expenses," Rekenthaler said. "And investors are hurting themselves by [poor] asset-allocation decisions, like moves they made to get out of emerging-market funds in the '08-'09 timeframe, for example."
That is bad news for investors, but it is a positive situation for advisors and other experts, according the analyst: "The greatest value that Morningstar, advisors, fund companies and the press can provide is improving asset allocation," he concluded.

In the 1939 film "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," James Stewart's character memorably talks himself into exhaustion on the Senate floor to stall an appropriations bill and prove his innocence. After speaking nonstop for 24 hours, he finally succumbs to fatigue and collapses in a heap.
The iconic scene is probably how most people think of the filibuster. But the present process is far less theatrical and physically draining. In fact, it demands no exertion at all.
Senators can now invoke filibusters at whim - no rambling speeches or phone book reading necessary. As long as 40 senators oppose a bill, and one of them declares an intent to filibuster, the majority must scrounge up 60 votes - a supermajority - to break it. The intent is to bring legislation to a screeching halt.
The tactic has done Congress no favors with the American public.
Reckless use of the filibuster from 2007 onward has contributed to dismal approval ratings, which, according to the Gallup pollsters, have averaged 17 percent since Jan. 2010, at times plummeting to 10 percent - a number even lower than telemarketers and TSA airport screenings.
A recently formed group of local citizens are adding their voices to the chorus demanding reform.
"It's simple. Bills should be put up for a vote, whether the tally is a yes or a no," said Laird Carlson, de facto spokesman of Montezuma Voters for Good Government.
Carlson calls himself a "coordinator of information", and rejects titles like director or president. He says MVGG was intentionally created without any formal leadership hierarchy.
"We're a group of equals who discuss specific policy issues that affect us in Montezuma County, and propose ideas to solve them. But we don't just sit around a table and talk. We want to be a force that contacts our representatives and prompts them to act."
The small founding core first convened MVGG shortly after the November election, because as Carlson puts it, civic responsibility goes beyond the voting booth. A successful democracy is about staying informed and making sure lawmakers are responsive to their constituents.
"It's more than casting a ballot on November 6 and letting (politicians) do their thing. We're tired of that," he said. "They represent us."
The group chose filibuster reform as its first battle because Senate procedural rules can only be changed on the first day of a new session. In this case, Jan. 3.
For the last month, Carlson and others have kept busy informing Montezuma County voters about what they perceive as filibuster misuse. Action-wise, they want people to sign the national online petition, accessible via the group's Facebook page, and to contact Colorado Sens. Mark Udall and Michael Bennet. Both senators have issued statements backing reform.
Udall has his own website petition and has proposed to eliminate "frivolous absentee obstruction" by forcing senators to be present to commence a filibuster. He believes the procedural tool has been distorted beyond its rightful purpose of protecting minority party rights.
"In recent years, the minority party has broken all past precedent and has used the filibuster on a regular basis to stop common-sense bills and nominations from receiving up-or-down votes," he wrote in a blog post.
While vocal advocates of filibuster reform in Washington are Democrats, Carlson says MVGG is nonpartisan. He believes a more functional Congress is something engaged citizens from across the political spectrum can agree upon.
"Right now to pass anything substantial you need over 60 votes. Our country wasn't set up to run on a supermajority. Majority should rule. That's what's written in the Constitution," he said.
Another related grievance of MVGG is the "silent hold," where a single Senator can anonymously delay appointments to key administrative and judicial posts.
For Carlson and his ilk, it comes down to quality of representation.
"Everyone is frustrated by the stagnation. We're paying big bucks for this government to run. We want it to run efficiently," he said.

Many of us have felt that weird ear-popping sensation when we fly. For kids (especially babies and young children), it can seem especially odd and even scary at first. But it's a common, normal part of flying.
This sometimes uncomfortable sensation is related to pressure changes in the air space behind the eardrum (the middle ear). Normally, the eustachian tube, a passageway that leads from the middle ear to the back of the throat behind the nose, equalizes the air pressure in the middle ear to the outside air pressure by opening and letting air reach the middle ear. When our ears "pop" while yawning or swallowing, the eustachian tubes are adjusting the air pressure in the middle ears.
In kids, however, the relatively narrow eustachian tubes might not function as effectively, especially if they're clogged by inflammation and mucus from an ear infection or cold, or blocked by enlarged or swollen adenoids (lumps of immune system tissue located near the openings of the eustachian tubes).
Whether you're flying, scuba diving, climbing a mountain, or even riding in an elevator, air pressure decreases as you go higher and increases as you go lower. If the pressure isn't equalized, the higher air pressure pushes on one side of the eardrum and causes pain. That explains why so many babies cry during those last few minutes of the flight, when the air pressure in the cabin increases as the plane prepares to land.
But the pain is only temporary — it won't cause any lasting problems for kids and usually will subside within a few minutes as the eustachian tubes open to let the air pressure equalize on both sides of the eardrums.
If your child has an ear infection, your doctor may recommend delaying flying, if possible, until the infection is gone to avoid increased pain and possible rupture, or tear, of the eardrum. In kids who have had tubes inserted in the eardrums because of ear fluid problems, the artificial tubes will help the air pressure equalization happen more easily.
Some simple things to try during air travel can help equalize the air pressure in your child's ears and eliminate, or at least decrease, ear pain. Have your child:
If your child is taking medications that contain antihistamines or decongestants, talk to your doctor about whether to continue them during the flight.
In some cases, a child may continue to have ear pain for longer periods (up to several hours) if the ears don't "pop." You can continue to give your child pain relievers according to the package directions until the pain eases. If it continues for more than several hours, call your doctor for advice.
With a little patience and some simple precautions, though, you can make your next family flight less stressful and more comfortable for both you and your child.

wheel sucker
To be on a long bike ride (training ride or race)and trailing a person or people very closely (thereby minimizing
your effort and making the person in front of you do all the hard work)all day until the last leg, then taking off to finish the ride first in front of your buddies like you are hero.
"Did you see him last week? He is such a Wheel Sucker. He pulled a wellesley and rode up my back for 60 miles and then took off like a hero to finish the ride in front of us all!!! He should take some HGH, rather than make me do all the hard work"!
wheel sucker: define #2
A road cyclist who stays behind other cyclists' wheels so that he/she can draft behind them, and thus conserve his/her own efforts.
George is the worst wheelsucker of all, always feigning fatigue when we ask him to be at the front every once in a while.

Following Friends to Physics
Free play and building with logs and boards is a realistic way to explore physics concepts. MSGL has an outdoor space that allows for more than just "recess." Outside time is not a chance to get away from the classroom, it's an opportunity for children to use their whole bodies to learn and, most importantly, have fun with friends.
On Thursday, a quartet of boys was getting very silly in the back corner of our Montessori classroom. They were speaking with outside voices and using all available paper to make pretend swords so they could have a pretend swordfight. When I tried to redirect them, they asked to make paper airplanes and see whose would fly the farthest. Although Montessori teachers are known for their flexibility and laid-back grooviness, I could not condone sword-fighting and airplane-flying during class on this, only the second full week of preschool. What would people say?
I empathized with these friends because they wanted to play together and needed to actively move their bodies, but it was still 30 minutes before we (read: I) could even think about going outside where this type of gross-motor play was appropriate. They took a half-hearted interest in another activity and I sat at a table nearby to observe. When they realized I was there to stay, they started putting away their work and chanting with dead eyes and sad voices, "No more fun. No more fun. No more fun." It would seem I had officially become "the man." They went to the other side of the room to build a tower with the brown stair and the pink cubes and within minutes, they were using the smallest brown stair as a lever to launch the smallest pink cube across the rug. Clearly, they were trying to tell me something.
What these boys wanted was action. They are perfectly willing to come in each morning and work on their maps or practice writing their names, but after a time they really want to make things move. And it's not just the boys, of course. Girls thrive on kinesthetic learning activities and they are usually the first to line up to walk across the log seesaw.
In fact, all young children are kinesthetic learners. Most mature into adolescents who can learn successfully through watching and listening, but not all. As long ago as 1979, researchers studying how humans learn understood this:
"Restak (1979) and others have indicated that many students do not become strongly visual before third grade, that auditory acuity first develops in many students after the sixth grade, and that boys often are neither strongly visual nor auditory even during high school. Therefore, since most young children are tactual and kinesthetic learners, such resources should be developed and used, particularly for those who are experiencing difficulty learning through lectures, direct verbal instructions, "chalk talks," and textbook assignments."- See the full article at Education.com

No one is suggesting that preschoolers should be taught through lectures, but sometimes society (or maybe our high school principal's voice in the back of our head) worries us into thinking that if we don't make our children sit down, concentrate, and learn - how will they ever be successful in school or the Real World that supposedly comes after?
Parents sometimes ask, "When will you teach him to sit still and listen to the teacher?" The answer is that he will sit still and listen when what I am saying is of interest to him. It's my job to find the topic that is so fascinating to the child that he can't help but hold his body still so as to not miss a single word. A teacher's job is to be fascinating; but only until the child is so interested in the subject that he sets off to explore it on his own. At that point, the teacher observes and prepares for the child's next question then guides him to find the answers on his own. (Please note: Matters of health, safety, and courtesy are always addressed immediately. No one in the classroom has the freedom to hurt themselves or to hurt or disrupt others.)
Maria Montessori observed that not only do young children learn kinesthetically, they absolutely MUST learn this way for proper brain development.
"Movement, or physical activity, is thus an essential factor in intellectual growth, which depends upon the impressions received from outside. Through movement we come in contact with external reality, and it is through these contacts that we eventually acquire even abstract ideas." - The Secret of Childhood

So, as a good teacher who believes in a research-based approach to education, I am obligated to consider the kinesthetic learning style of my preschool students. I am also obligated to follow a child's interests because a child who is studying something she is interested in, as opposed to an externally-imposed curriculum, is much more likely to retain that information and build connections in her brain. So why were we still inside the classroom and NOT outside studying the physics of flight and simple machines? Because I didn't know they were interested until Thursday. But now I do.
As a result, my assistant and I will be following our 3, 4, and 5-year-olds into the action-packed world of physics this week starting with the simple lever. We will spend a little extra time outside on the log seesaw for some major gross motor exploration, then we will scale down the kinesthetic experience to make smaller levers inside the classroom using blocks, rulers, pennies, rocks, and pompoms. We will introduce the appropriate words such as "load", "effort", and "fulcrum" and we will figure out how many pennies it takes the raise the rock load. I will do my best to be fascinating. There may be squeals of joy and pompoms flying through the air, but no more "No more fun."
Thanks for reading,
MSGL Summer Camp is open to Preschoolers through 1st Graders who are currently enrolled or recent alumni and while it is a really great time for all of those kids who have been here before, it is especially helpful for children new to MSGL and for the toddlers who are graduating to preschool. For these children, Summer Camp is the perfect way to ease into the routines of preschool and to set the stage for a successful start in August.
The absolute best part of being a Montessori directress - or ANY teacher, anywhere, I imagine - is watching the children develop and grow. We spend time with your children each day, observing and guiding them, and we get to see them just as they are in that moment. And what they are, as Grace Harvey says, is "totes amazeballs" (totally amazing). They grow in strength, wisdom, and courage right before our very eyes.
Today I will just speak to their courage because courage is the thing that gets your child through his or her day without you. In more stuffy circles it might be called confidence, but when you are only 28 inches tall and mom or dad just drove out of the parking lot, you've got to be brave to pull yourself together, to turn to face that great big green space filled with people you don't know and sally forth through the rest of your morning.
Maya Angelou said, "Courage is the most important of all the virtues because without courage, you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistenly without courage." During last week's Summer Camp, there were many examples of children developing their courage and I will share a few.
During Friday's Bike Day, a 4-year-old friend who enthusiastically embraces everything at school stopped his bike right at my toes, looked out at the cars going by on Sagamore Parkway, and said, "I miss my dad and my mom. And my little brother. And our dog. And they are missing me, too." I listened and commiserated and soon he took off speeding around the course. His courage waned for only a moment then he got back on his bike.
The 5-year-olds are totally courageous (one might even say fearless) out on the bike course and they consider their turn during Bike Day to be a race even though there is no starting line and no trophies. As they put on their helmets, their talk is all about who will win. When D missed his turn to ride with his fellow 4-year-olds, he got to ride with the 5's (a truly courageous decision) alonside his big brother. After the race, D was a little upset that he didn't "win." His big brother reassured him, "No, you DID win, D! Did you see all those people going by you? That's because you won!" (Just a note: We have a lot of siblings at camp this year and even though we know sibling rivalry is a real thing, you couldn't tell by watching these brothers and sisters interact at school. Whether it's inviting a little sister to play or feeding a little brother apples during snack, your children take good care of each other when they are away from mom and dad.)
The exploding paint activity required all different types of bravery, especially from the teachers. For this activity, the children put a scoop of baking soda and some colored vinegar in a plastic baggie, sealed it and shook it up before throwing it on the ground to watch it explode. If there was no explosion the child could take a pin-puncher and pop the bag. Loud noises, spraying liquids - it's not an experiment for the timid.
Courage hung thick in the air under the willow tree on Friday as children experimented with the log seesaw. Little ones who started out holding our hands as they walked the length of the log until it dropped to the ground were able to do it by themselves after seven or eight attempts. One group of brave 5 and 6-year-old girls inspired their younger sisters and friends to walk the seesaw and soon there there were eight girls waiting in line for a turn. These are some of the same girls who regularly show others how to draw pictures of princesses and fairies in the classroom. For me, this experience was a reminder that when we worry that a child is "only drawing" or "only playing" it's time to take a break and get a cup of coffee while the children follow their interests.
Maria Montessori observed that by using their senses and their big, beautiful brains, children can naturally learn everything they need to about their world. All they need is a caring community of adults to prepare an environment where that learning can occur. She described it this way, "The environment must be rich in motives which lend interest to activity and invite the child to conduct his own experiences."
MSGL provides such an environment in our classrooms and on our beautiful campus that has been created by you and other parents like you. When you bring your child to Summer Camp next week or to Preschool this fall, you are allowing her to bravely conduct her own experiences apart from you. And that requires real courage from both of you.
See you soon!
The weather forecast calls for all of this snow to be melting in about a week. In case you think you just can't wait that long, here are some photos of MSGL summers past to see you through.

We're keeping things simple on Wayback Wednesday this week with a short and sweet little collection of photos from October, 2002. Teacher Judy West took the children of the Red Oak class on a nature hike to Purdue's Horticulture Park to enjoy the crisp morning, collect leaves, and hug some very deserving trees.
Do you have favorite photos you would like to share on Wayback Wednesday? Please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Have an outstanding Wednesday!
The s-word is in our forecast this week. I don't know anyone who is happy about the October SNOW except for my allergy-suffering friends. With the snow come cold temperatures and at MSGL we play outside year-round, so it's important for children to have warm and practical clothing to wear every day. For the past 12 years I greeted the children on the playground at 8:30 am, snow or shine. To help you prepare for this week and the next six months (it hurts me to say that), I have compiled for you:
Miss Heather's Top 10 List for Child Comfort and Parent Happiness: Winter Edition
1. Check the forecast. Every class - Toddler through Elementary - goes outside when the temperature is 20 degrees Fahrenheit or above. Check the weather forecast each day before leaving the house to make sure your child will have the appropriate cold-weather gear for that day.
2. Go with the low. Consider the time of day your child will be outside. The forecast may call for a high temp. of 63 degrees, but the temperature at 8:30 am might only be in the 40's. Some classes start outside, some go out at 10:15, some at 11:00. The afternoon and Elementary classes go out at varying times throughout the week. Provide clothing for the day's low temperature and your child should be well-prepared.
3. Layer, layer, layer. Imagine your child as a cute, rosy-cheeked onion and help her dress in layers. Being hot and sweaty outside in the cold is just as uncomfortable as shivering. If your child can take off a sweater or push back her hood and unzip her coat, she will be able to regulate her body temperature and still enjoy the time outside.
4. Listen to your child. Trust your child to make decisions about his comfort. The only way we can learn if we are too cold is if we are allowed to feel the cold. If your child doesn't want to wear his gloves, don't sweat it. Make sure he knows his gloves are in his locker and that he can go get them if he gets cold. The same goes for his snow pants and his bulky winter coat. An active child dressed in layers with warm shoes and a hat can generally enjoy himself outside without danger of getting too cold, even in winter. If your child is listening to his body instead of chafing under a "mitten mandate" he is more likely to develop a true sense of how to dress for the weather. My friend "Z" always told his dad he didn't want to wear his coat or his snow pants or his gloves, but 10 minutes after dad left, Z would ask to go get them.
5. Start a discussion. Talk with your child about the day's weather and how to dress. Remember that the ultimate goals are safety and independence. You might say something like, "It's 30 degrees Fahrenheit. You definitely need to wear something on your hands, but you can choose if you wear your Spiderman gloves or the mittens Grandma made for you." Or try, "It's going to be 45 degrees when you go outside today. What should you pack for school?" Young children can learn to speak three languages at once. They can also learn to make clothing choices based on the outdoor temperature.
6. Get a move-on. Remember that your child is most likely playing actively outside. We might feel very cold walking from the car to the school door in a suit or a skirt and heels, but a child riding a balance bike for 10 minutes heats up very quickly.
7. Consider cold pants. Snow pants or snow suits are essential when there is snow on the ground, but some children (and some preschool teachers) like to wear them as soon as they can see their breath outside. Think of them as "cold pants" and let your child keep them in his locker from October through April.
8. Label everything. Speaking of lockers, our lockers are small. When two children share a locker it's nearly impossible to fit snow pants, coats, book bags and lunch boxes inside. PLEASE make sure every article of clothing you send to school has your child's name or your family's last name written on it where it's easy to read. All black snow pants and all Spiderman gloves look the same when there are 24 children getting dressed in the hallway. If you forget, your child's teacher will be happy to loan you a Sharpie and some masking tape.
9. Embrace the terrific outdoors. Spending time outdoors is important for everyone's health and well-being. We do not have a gym and children may not stay inside by themselves. If your child is recovering from an illness and you don't want her to be outside, please make arrangements to drop her off late or pick her up early, depending on the class schedule.
10. Stock up. Have extra winter clothing on hand, if possible. The first Snow Day of the year is much less fun when your child has left her snow pants at school. And plan to lose at least one set of gloves. If you buy three identical sets of gloves, odds are you will have at least one matching set at the end of the year. Just in case, the Lost and Found box is in the office.
If you recently moved to West Lafayette from somewhere warm and lovely, I am so sorry! But seriously, you can stock up on all the clothing your family needs to get through your first Indiana winter at J.C. Penney, Sears, Target, KMart, or Walmart. You can purchase gently-used childrens' outerwear at Once Upon a Child in Lafayette.
Below are some examples of items your child will need.
Thanks for reading and bring on the snow!
Two years ago, before their daughter was even old enough to enroll at MSGL, Zoe Neal and Desiree Chuang made an historic donation to our school. Owners of Virtuous Cycles in downtown Lafayette, Zoe and Desiree gave us a bright orange Strider balance bike to try out on the tricycle track. It soon became the most beloved of all the bikes because it is the only two-wheeler and it has no pedals. And most importantly, it goes FAST! Well, it goes as fast as the square bike track will allow and with all of the tricycle traffic? The bike track is sometimes more like the intersection of 52 and Salisbury when Purdue heads home for the day. Still, it feels really fast.
Old School
On the bikes of my youth and quite possibly yours, I learned to pedal with a set of training wheels attached to the hub of the back wheel to keep the bike, and me, upright. I learned to pedal the bike but never felt what it was like to be truly balanced on two wheels. When the training wheels came off I wasn't really ready at all. I had to learn to balance, and quickly! - and my parents had to watch. Spoiler alert: we all survived.
New School
Balance bikes let a child master the balancing part - the most challenging part - of riding a bike, first. When you are coasting on a Strider bike with your feet not touching the ground it feels exactly like riding a bike. You ARE riding the bike, you're just not pedaling it. And since many children already learned to pedal on a tricycle the year before, the two skills of balancing and pedaling come together nicely after they have mastered the Strider. Several online reviews point out that if a child can walk she can ride a balance bike, so some children skip the tricycle stage altogether.
Maria Montessori observed the importance of a child developing his sense of balance. She created activities such as walking on the line to help fine-tune this sense. At MSGL the Strider is an extension of that balance exercise.
Last year, the Franklin family donated a new, dark blue Strider and now the children can have a turn to ride in half the time. That's important because learning to have a turn and to wait for a turn is one of the biggest works of preschool. The children at MSGL and their teachers have come up with an almost fool-proof system for taking turns on the Striders and all the bikes. It came to be called the "waiting bench."
The Waiting Bench
The waiting bench is right next to the bike shed which is sort of the starting line of the bike track. The first two children take the bikes out of the shed and ride them. When another friend wants a turn, he sits on the waiting bench. This signals the riders that someone is waiting for a turn so they need to consider how many more laps they will take before handing the bike off to the next friend. Sometimes the rider stops riding and negotiates with the waiter.
Waiter: How many more times are you going to go around?
Rider: 10
Waiter: That's too many! How about 7?
Rider: How about 5? (When you're learning numbers and quantity, it's sometimes more important to pick a number you like than to negotiate for the most turns. Negotiation skills improve with experience :)
Once an agreement has been reached, the rider continues his laps while the waiter and his friends count down from 5 to 1. At the hand-off between rider and waiter, the cycle is repeated with new riders. Sometimes there are misunderstandings and an experienced child steps in to mediate. A teacher is always nearby to see what is happening and make herself available to help, if needed.
The idea of the waiting bench just sort of happened, like lots of great things happen in child-centered environments. It's possible that the teachers could have made an arbitrary rule about each child getting only 5 turns, but that would diminish the child's ability to make choices and consider the feelings of others. For example, 5-year-olds can recognize a child who is struggling with being patient and they will sometimes hand the bike over early to help this child. This leads to another cycle that I call the "Cycle of Benevolence." Benevolence is an inclination to perform kind, charitable acts. When a child sees a peer giving freely of herself to make someone else happy, it feels good. Soon, that child is looking for a way to help a friend. The cycle repeats and those kind acts and good feelings spill over into the community and, ultimately, the whole wide world.
Heike Larson, an administrator and blogger at Leport School in California, writes frequently of the importance of fostering benevolence in preschool communities. All of us at MSGL are inspired by her blog. She has also written about balance bikes on the Leport Schools blog here.
If you are considering buying a balance bike for your child, be sure to visit Virtuous Cycles to check out their selection of models and colors. Tell them MSGL sent you and be a part of the Cycle.

20,000 bees removed from elderly woman's home
Bees to be moved to safer location
Thousands of bees were removed Saturday from a 98-year-old woman's home in Cocoa Beach.
The buzz that circled 98-year-old Sevia Moore's house was one that would make other people run in fear. Moore said 20,000 bees built a hive in the attic and awning of her home.
"They didn't bother me. When I was outside, I didn't even see any," Moore said.
Moore's granddaughter, Laura Blevins, said when she showed her grandmother the hive, she was stunned.
"(There was) relief. Sleeping under that, oh lord," Blevins said.
The beekeeper used a vacuum to gather all the bees and collected the huge honey comb and hive. The bees, which are important to nature, will be moved to a safer location.
"The honey bee population is hurting right now. It's important to save the hive and they can go on to reproduce. They are good for the environment," said beekeeper Leo Cross.

text: Wednesday, February 06, 2013 New in the Literature: Management Decisions Following New Consultation for LBP (Arch Phys Med Rehabil. 2013 Jan 18. [Epub ahead of print]) In a retrospective cohort obtained from electronic medical records and insurance claims data, initial physical therapy management following a new primary care low back pain (LBP) consultation was not associated with increased health care costs or utilization of specific services. The authors of this article, which appears online in Archives of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, write that additional research is needed to examine the cost consequences of initial management decisions made following a new consultation for LBP. Records and data were examined on 2,184 patients aged 18 and older with a new consultation for LBP from 2004-2008 in single health care delivery system in the United States. Patients were categorized as receiving initial physical therapy management if care occurred within 14 days after consultation. Total health care costs for all LBP-related care received in the year following consultation were calculated from claims data. Predictors of utilization of emergency care, advanced imaging, epidural injections, specialist visits, and surgery were identified using multivariate logistic regression. Generalized linear model was used to compare LBP-related costs based on physical therapy utilization and identify other cost determinants. Initial physical therapy was received by 286 of 2,184 patients (13.1%) and was not a determinant of LBP-related health care costs or utilization of specific services in the year following consultation. Older age, mental health or neck pain comorbidity and initial management with opioids were determinants of cost and several utilization outcomes. APTA member Julie M. Fritz, PT, PhD, ATC, is the article's lead author. APTA members Gerard P. Brennan, PT, PhD, Stephen J. Hunter, PT, DPT, OCS, and John S. Magel, PT, DSc, OCS, FAAOMPT, are coauthors. Comments If you are still using LBP, or idiopathic low back pain, or lumbopelvic pain or any other generic term for common pain in the low back, you don't have the foggiest notion about the specific cause of or specific tests for this ubiquitous problem. I am sorry for your patients. Posted by Richard L. DonTigny, PT on 2/8/2013 5:04 PM
