Top 5 Celebrity Workouts – Celebs Building Muscle
I've been noticing a bunch of celebrity pics around the internet showing them training, building muscle and killing pink weights and wearing ipod arm bands.
Here are my top 5 Fittest Celebrities.
HELP! I need your opinion, leave your top choices for fittest celebs and I will profile them in the next installment.
Matthew Mcconaughey
Matt is pretty ripped up and I always see him doing tons of bodyweight stuff. It is a testament to bodyweight training and good nutrition.
Now for some reason my wife loves Matthew, but I don't see it? I mean, after EdTV I just couldn't watch him again. Well, maybe that one movie with him and Goldie Hawn's daughter, she's hot. Plus, I've always thought his arms were a little too short and he reminded me of a velociraptor.
Lance Armstrong
What else can you say about Lance? Elite athlete, cancer survivor and just a type A personality. He does not do anything half way. He either wants to be the best at whatever he does or just be relentless trying to be the best.
Here is Lance killing some kettlebells. I wonder if he has the Diesel KB ebooks? I'm sure he does, remember I said he wants to be the best 🙂
Plus, he dated Goldie Hawn's daughter!
Jessica Biel
Ah…do I need to say anything about Jessica. Dat chick is smoking with probably the best body in Hollywood. If there is a better body, leave a comment with your favorite. Lots of medicine ball work and full range bodyweight movements and light dumbbell work. I've also seen her hitting intervals and basic agility movements at the track.
Mike Tyson
Now when I say Mike Tyson, I'm talking about old Mike Tyson. The ferocious, "my defense is impregnable" Mike Tyson. You remember those old workouts of him in the thermal tops and bottoms, hitting the heavy bag so freaking hard and moving so explosively? I had never seen power like that before.
Ryan Reynolds
That dude was jacked in Blade 3, plus he's married to Scarlett Johansson. Got's to give him props. Now, he's not as dreamy as Joe Jonas but I guess Scarlett settled anyway. From what I've read he did 100's of crunches each workout. Now we all know that the abdominals are like any other muscle group and require progressive overload. 1000 crunches does not a six pack make – training plus good nutrition does. He also did body part training, ie. chest day, back day, arm day, etc. A more efficient use of his time would have been an upper / lower split as described in AMD. He even admitted by the time the movie was over he was sick of working out. That is what working out almost every day of the week does to you. With a high intensity upper / lower split you will have a better workout and not have to spend hours in the gym.

RAHWAY – Visitors to Rahway's First Thursdays monthly arts event will be able to see Tanzania "Exposed" in a special art exhibit at EDGE Galleries, 1571-77 Irving Street.
The United Republic of Tanzania is a nation in East Africa bordered by Kenya and Uganda to the north, Rwanda, Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo to the west, and Zambia, Malawi and Mozambique to the south. The country's eastern borders lie on the Indian Ocean.
The country, also known as the Land of Kilimanjaro, has many historic sites and game reserves, including Ngorongoro Crater, Mikumi National Park, Serengeti National Park and Lake Victoria where river Nile starts.
The name Tanzania is a portmanteau of Tanganyika and Zanzibar. The two states united in 1964 to form the United Republic of Tanganyika and Zanzibar, which later the same year was renamed the United Republic of Tanzania. The current head of state is President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete, elected in 2005.
Come enjoy the art, video, pictures and everything this country has to offer beginning at 6 p.m. on Thursday, April 1. This free event has been arranged in conjunction with the Permanent Mission of the United Republic of Tanzania to the United Nations in New York. There will be a special African/Haitian dance performance by the Haitian group Trouppe Flanm of Queens, New York.
Park and ride a free shuttle bus from City Hall parking lot every 10 minutes starting at 5 p.m.

Le Jardin is the lovely Designer Series paper in gorgeous colours of River Rock, Soft Sky, So Saffron and Very Vanilla. Carte Postale is one of the lovely stamp sets that coordinates with the Le Jardin DSP.
Tonight is my monthly stamp class that a few mum's from my daughter's school attend. We normally just do cards but we have decided to do some boxes or other 3-D items and tonight I've turned it into a 3 piece set.
Isn't this colour combination just gorgeous? It's so soft looking. I must say I'm very happy with these creations and hope the ladies are too.
Here's a closer look at each of them.
The Tote.....
I didn't think this needed any stamping as the paper is just gorgeous on it's own and I've covered a fair space on the front and back.
Card: Soft Sky, River Rock, Le Jardin DSP
Accessories: Antique Brass Jumbo Eyelets, Crop-a-dile, Sticky Strip.
The first card I made was this one.
For this card I used a left over piece of the DSP I've used on the Tote. I layered it straight onto the Soft Sky card, stamped Mon Amie in River Rock ink on the bottom right hand corner and added some paper piercing underneath. I've then stamped the flower square image on Very Vanilla Card using So Saffron ink and then punched out with the 1 1/4" circle punch. I've then punched a 1 3/8" circle from Soft Sky card and a Scallop Circle from some River Rock card. This is then all layered as shown and mounted to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals.
Stamp set: Carte Postale
Card: Soft Sky, River Rock, Very Vanilla, Le Jardin DSP
Ink: So Saffron, River Rock
Accessories: 1 1/4" & 1 3/8" circle punches, scallop circle punch, tool kit, stampin' dimensionals.
For the final card I decided to make a Joy Fold Card.
For the base of this card I've used Very Vanilla card and added 2 coordinating pieces of Le Jardin DSP. The top flap is So Saffron with Very Vanilla card which I have stamped images from the Carte Postale stamp set. Inside also has a piece of Very Vanilla card which I've left blank until I need to use the card and can then select an appropriate stamp or just hand write on it. As you can see I've Paper Pierced around the Very Vanilla stamped piece and the bird has been stamped, cut out and then mounted with stampin' dimensionals. I've used the same scallop flower piece as on the previous card which holds the card shut.
Stamp set: Carte Postale
Card: Very Vanilla, So Saffron, River Rock, Soft Sky, Le Jardin DSP
Ink: River Rock, Soft Sky, So Saffron.
Accessories: 1 1/4" & 1 3/8" circle punches, scallop circle punch, tool kit, stampin' dimensionals, stamp-a-ma-jig.

Diamond rings are nowhere in the range of cheap. Owners cherish diamond rings not only for their sentimental value but also for their price value. In the U.K. like most anywhere, the cost of a diamond ring can be extremely high. Of course, there are also diamond rings that are very affordable, but that can still be expensive for certain people. For this reason, there are those who prefer buying a second-hand diamond ring instead of a new one.
Practical men proposing to their girlfriends find comfort in the knowledge that they can buy a used or pre-loved diamond engagement ring and use the saved money for other plans. There are other reasons for buying second-hand diamond rings, but the leading reason is lowered price. A discussion about diamond rings, as well as the advantages of buying a second-hand diamond ring is needed to guide buyers in making the right decision.
Factors That Affect the Price of a Diamond Ring
There are five factors that determine the price of a second-hand diamond ring or any diamond ring for that matter. Four are about the diamond itself, and the last factor concerns the metal band on which the diamond is mounted.
Cutting a diamond is a crucial process to make a diamond attain the ideal sparkly state. The cut of the diamond refers to the symmetry of the gemstone. The purpose of cutting a diamond to an optimal symmetry is to allow absorbed light to disperse evenly back to the diamond's top facets. A diamond with a shallow or deep cut only allows the light to escape through the diamond's bottoms, wasting good light that could have been used to illuminate all the top facets of the diamond.
It can be quite surprising to some that there are pink, blue, red, orange, blue, or green diamonds. But the most popular choice is the white or colourless diamond for second-hand diamond rings. Not all white or colourless diamonds are purely transparent. Some have a yellowish tinge, and when the yellows are more noticeable or darker, the diamond decreases in value.
Just like a blemish-free face is much preferred, a blemish-free diamond is a mark of quality gemstone. Diamonds that have no surface blemishes and inclusions or birthmarks are rare, and therefore, very valuable. For the rest of the diamonds, the amount of inclusions and how visible they are under 10x magnification determine their price. More value is given to diamonds with fewer inclusions. The Gemmological Institute of America (GIA) has devised a grading system called the Clarity Scale that classifies diamonds according to quality.
Carat refers to the weight of a diamond and not its size. Carat came from the word carob, a seed that has uniform weight, which early traders used on a counterbalance to get the weight of precious stones. Carat weight is usually expressed in fraction. So for instance, a diamond with 0.50 carats is 1/2 carat. Buyers should not confuse carat and karat; the latter is used to measure the purity of gold.
Metal Band
Gold is a very popular choice for metal bands because it is durable and easy to notice. It also provides a nice contrast of colour with a diamond. Gold, which can come in yellow gold, rose gold or white gold is used as a metal band for diamonds since ancient times, but people today are exploring more options on where to set their diamonds. Platinum is a great choice. Not only it is durable, but it also develops a patina film that adds to the beauty of the metal. Silver is another popular choice because it is cheaper and less expensive.
Advantages of Buying a Second-Hand Diamond Ring
A second-hand diamond ring is still a diamond ring, sparkling in all its magnificence. There are a number of benefits to buying a second-hand diamond ring.
The significant amount saved from buying a second-hand ring is the most important reason people prefer to do so. For a man buying a second-hand diamond ring as an engagement ring, the money saved can be used towards the wedding expenses, a house deposit, or any other expense related to having a family. The saved money from a second-hand diamond ring can also be used to buy other jewellery. If buyers are careful enough and have enough knowledge on how to choose the right diamond, they can find a second-hand diamond ring that is as good as new.
Value of Having an Old Look
It is not true that a second-hand diamond ring looks less superior to a new diamond ring. Careful attention when buying a second-hand ring and overall taste in jewellery are enough to find a second-hand diamond ring that is on par with a new one. Furthermore, people get added value from old jewellery with a vintage look. There is beauty in a second-hand diamond ring with a platinum band that has developed a pleasant patina colour over time. It has a vintage appeal that new diamond rings do not have.
Choosing a Second-Hand Diamond Ring
If a diamond ring is a gift, a buyer must first consider the shape of a diamond that the recipient likes. But perhaps the recipient does not have any idea what shape he or she likes, a buyer can opt for the round or princess cut because they are safe and popular choices. A buyer must also think of the preferred carat weight of the recipient, who may not be thrilled in having a diamond below one carat. Of course, budget is an important consideration when buying a second-hand diamond ring, but the preference of the recipient is of equal importance.
Buyers can still save money when buying a second-hand one-carat diamond than buying a new one-carat diamond ring. Diamond rings with one carat or lower are cheaper because they are of a less-preferred weight, and sellers offer discounts for such jewellery. If buyers want the diamond to look bigger despite its weight falling below one carat, they can choose a marquise cut. Such a diamond appears larger than other shapes because of its elongated shape.
Caring for Second-Hand Diamond Rings
Diamonds, whether new or second-hand, are the hardest substance on earth. However, they are not indestructible. One good tip is to not wear a diamond ring when doing work that put the diamond at the risk of scratching or chipping off from the band.
It is important to clean a diamond regularly because dust, particles, and even the natural oil in the hands, can cloud a diamond's brilliance. When a diamond becomes dirty, soak it in an ammonia-based household cleaner, and let it stay there for at eight to twelve hours. After soaking, remove leftover dirt using a toothbrush with soft bristles. The bottom part of the diamond collects the most dirt, so pay particular attention to it when cleaning. The next step is to rinse the diamond with water and wipe it with a soft cloth.
Buyers can clean their diamond rings once or twice a week to make sure that the diamond remains sparkly. An ultrasonic cleaner can also do the job effectively. It uses ultrasound to clean delicate items, and is very good in removing grime from a diamond to bring back its radiance. This method of cleaning, however, is best left to professionals, especially if the connection between the diamond and the metal band of a ring is fragile.
Buyers who opt for second-hand diamond rings save a significant amount of money, which they can use for other things. When buying a second-hand diamond ring, buyers must carefully look into its colour, cut, clarity, and carat weight to make sure they are getting the best deal. Colourless diamonds are the most preferred and most expensive type, and diamonds having even a slightly yellow tinge decreases in value in the eyes of a connoisseur.
Careful buyers should choose a diamond with little or no blemish inside and on the surface. The more weight a diamond has, the more expensive it gets, but buyers who are planning to buy a diamond with less than one carat could choose a marquis-cut diamond that looks bigger because of its elongated shape. Aside from the value for money, buyers can also get the value of a vintage look when buying a second-hand ring. A diamond ring is dazzling to the eyes, whether it is new or used, but a second-hand diamond ring not only dazzles the eyes but also satisfies one's wallet.

Jolé revealed that she and Joe had fallen in love with "the most perfect baby boy" and expressed their joy that there was a male in the family to carry on their last name. The new arrival's full name: Grayson Vincent Gnoffo. Grayson is an English boy name meaning "son of the bailiff" or "gray-haired."
Although Grayson has been in the top 1,000 baby boy name chart for more than 20 years, it's at an all-time high, reaching number 47 in 2015 and showing no signs of dropping. Compared to its rhyming partners Jason and Mason, it's definitely a little more out there. Famous Graysons include Viner and YouTuber Grayson Dolan, teen actor Grayson Russell and street ball player and actor Grayson Boucher.

Among the many factors that influence student learning, teacher quality is crucial. To ensure that all classrooms are led by high-quality teachers, NCLB mandated that schools and districts hire only highly qualified teachers, defining "highly qualified" as having state certification, a minimum of a bachelor's degree, and demonstrated subject area competence. Teaching quality has remained in the national spotlight. The Race to the Top program, a component of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, called for applications from states to compete for more than $4 billion for education innovation and reform, including recruitment, professional development, compensation, and retention of effective teachers.[29] Salaries, working conditions, and opportunities for professional development contribute to keeping teachers in the profession and the best teachers in the classroom (Berry, Smylie, and Fuller 2008; Brill and McCartney 2008; Hanushek and Rivkin 2007; Ingersoll and May 2010).
This section presents indicators of public school mathematics and science teachers' preparation, experience, professional development, salaries, and working conditions. It focuses on middle and high school teachers, as mathematics and science teachers are more common and more easily identified at these levels than at the elementary level.[30] The primary data source is the 2007–08 SASS; comparable data from earlier SASS collections are also used to examine changes over time. The section refers to 2007 and 2003 to indicate the academic years 2007–08 and 2003–04. When possible, measures are analyzed separately for schools with differing concentrations of minority and low-income students.[31]
To provide context, U.S. public school teachers numbered about 3.4 million in 2007 (appendix table
The effects of good teachers on student achievement have been well documented (Boyd et al. 2008; Clotfelter, Ladd, and Vigdor 2007; Goe 2008; Guarino, Santibanez, and Daley 2006; Harris and Sass 2007), but the specific teacher characteristics that contribute to student success are less clear (see sidebar "Measuring Teaching Quality"). Some studies have cast doubt on whether commonly measured indicators, such as teachers' licensure scores or the selectivity of their undergraduate institutions, are related to teaching effectiveness (Boyd et al. 2006; Buddin and Zamarro 2009a, 2009b; Hanushek and Rivkin 2006). This section reports on indicators such as public school mathematics and science teachers' educational attainment, professional certification, participation in practice teaching, self-assessment of preparation, and years of experience. Although these are not the only characteristics that contribute to teacher effectiveness, they are more easily measured than such other characteristics as teachers' abilities to motivate students, manage the classroom, maximize instruction time, and diagnose and overcome students' learning difficulties.
Virtually all mathematics and science teachers at public middle and high schools held at least a bachelor's degree in 2007, and more than half had earned an advanced degree (e.g., master's degree, education specialist, certificate of advanced graduate studies, doctorate, professional degree) (appendix table
Teachers with advanced degrees are not evenly distributed across schools, however. Proportionately more mathematics and science teachers in low-poverty and low-minority schools held master's degrees than did their peers in high-poverty and high-minority schools.[32] For example, in 2007–08, 61% of science teachers in low-poverty schools had earned a master's degree, compared with 41% of those in high-poverty schools.
The traditional path to becoming a teacher begins in an undergraduate education program, where future teachers earn a bachelor's or master's degree and full teaching certification prior to beginning to teach. In recent years, a growing proportion of new teachers have entered the profession through an alternative pathway, usually a program that recruits college graduates from other fields or mid-career professionals in non-teaching careers. These teachers often begin to teach with probationary or temporary certification while they work toward regular certification during the first few years of their teaching careers.[33] Regardless of their pathway into the profession, all public school teachers must have some type of state certification to teach.
State Certification. Teacher certification refers to a license required by the state of all practicing teachers; requirements vary by state but typically include completing a bachelor's degree, completing a period of practice teaching, and passing a formal test[34] (Editorial Projects in Education Research Center 2010). Most states require high school teachers of mathematics and science to have a degree or certificate in their subject area. At the middle school level, some states allow general education preparation and others require subject area preparation for mathematics and science teachers (Greenberg and Walsh 2008). Differences in state standards and requirements for certification complicate measurement of the impact of teachers' credentials on student outcomes; nevertheless, some studies suggest that holding a regular or advanced certification is associated with student achievement (Clotfelter, Ladd, and Vigdor 2007; Easton-Brooks and Davis 2009; Klecker 2008; Subedi, Swan, and Hynes 2010).
In 2007, 87% of public middle and high school mathematics and science teachers were fully certified (i.e., held regular or advanced state certification) (table
Fully certified mathematics and science teachers were more prevalent in low-minority schools (92% of mathematics and 93% of science teachers) than in high-minority schools (84% of mathematics and 83% of science teachers) (appendix table
Alternative Entry into the Teaching Profession. Rather than completing traditional undergraduate programs in education, some teachers enter teaching through alternative programs such as Teach for America, The New Teacher Project, and other programs administered by states, districts, universities, and other organizations to expedite the transition of nonteachers into teaching. Although these programs have expanded in recent years,[35] researchers have observed few systematic differences in the training received by aspiring teachers in traditional versus alternative pathways (Humphrey, Weschler, and Hough 2008; NRC 2010; Zeichner and Conklin 2005).[36] Much of the formal training for teachers in both traditional and alternative programs takes place in university schools of education (Walsh and Jacobs 2007); according to SASS, however, a significantly smaller proportion of alternative-pathway teachers participated in practice teaching prior to beginning teaching (see "Practice Teaching" section). Some characteristics of teachers who enter through traditional and alternative programs, such as the selectivity of their undergraduate institutions or the likelihood of holding advanced degrees, are also similar (Cohen-Vogel and Smith 2007). Research has found mixed or no effects of teachers' pathway into the profession on students' achievement (Constantine et al. 2009; Boyd et al. 2006; Zeichner and Conklin 2005).
Some alternative entry programs place recruits in "high-need" schools, generally those with high levels of student poverty and low levels of student achievement. According to its website, the New Teacher Project has placed 43,000 teachers of all subjects in high-need locations since 1997, and Teach for America's annual placement of teachers in high-need schools has grown from about 2,000 to 5,000 between 2005 and 2010 (TFA 2006, 2008, 2009). Although statistics on the number of mathematics and science teachers placed are not available, the New Teacher Project and Teach for America include increasing the supply of teachers in those subject areas among their goals.[37]
In 2007, 19% of all public middle and high school mathematics teachers and 22% of science teachers had entered the profession through an alternative certification program, compared with 16% of teachers in other fields (appendix table
Some experienced teachers pursue certification from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, a nonprofit organization that evaluates teachers' performance against a set of professional standards and confers certificates indicating superior teaching quality.[38] Applicants must have completed 3 years of teaching and must hold state certification to be eligible. They must then complete 10 assessments reviewed by evaluators in their subject area—requirements that are more rigorous than those for state certification. Assessments include six online exercises, which test content knowledge in specific certificate areas, and four portfolio submissions, including video recordings of classroom practice and examples of student work.
Research on the effects of National Board Certification on student outcomes has generally been inconclusive. An assessment of 11 such studies by the National Academy of Sciences concluded that in any case, such a relationship is not a strong one (Hakel, Koenig, and Elliott 2008). Research in several states has shown that teachers holding this certification are less likely to teach in schools with high proportions of poor, minority, and low-performing students (Goldhaber, Choi, and Cramer 2007; Humphrey, Koppich, and Hough 2005). According to the National Board website, more than 90,000 teachers were National Board Certified as of 2010, a 90% increase since 2005, and 42% teach in schools eligible for Title I, a federal program to provide funds to schools and districts with high percentages of low-income students.[39] About one-quarter of school districts offer pay incentives for teachers who earn National Board Certification (Aritomi and Coopersmith 2009).
Practice teaching (also called student teaching) offers prospective teachers hands-on classroom experience to help them transfer what they learn from coursework into classroom teaching. Practical experience in the classroom affects teaching quality (Boyd et al. 2008),[40] and SASS data support this finding: among teachers with fewer than 5 years of experience (referred to here as "new teachers"), those who had participated in practice teaching were more likely to report feeling well prepared or very well prepared for various aspects of teaching during their first year than did those who had not had practice teaching (appendix table
Among new public middle and high school mathematics and science teachers in 2007, about three-quarters had participated in practice teaching (appendix table
The proportion of new mathematics and science teachers who have participated in practice teaching has declined during recent years. Seventy-five percent of new mathematics and 72% of new science teachers reported participation in practice teaching in 2007, compared with 79% and 75%, respectively, in 2003 (appendix table
New middle and high school teachers (i.e., those with fewer than 5 years of experience) generally felt well prepared to perform various tasks during their first year of teaching, and science teachers in particular have seen improvements in feeling prepared (appendix table
New teachers' assessments of their preparation varied with the characteristics of their schools. For example, 99% of new mathematics teachers and 95% of new science teachers in low-minority schools felt prepared to teach their subject matter, compared with 84% and 85% of their peers in high-minority schools (appendix table
Teachers generally are more effective in helping students learn as they gain years of experience, particularly during their first few years (Boyd et al. 2006; Clotfelter, Ladd, and Vigdor 2007; Harris and Sass 2008; Rice 2010). In 2007, about one-fifth of public middle and high school mathematics and science teachers were novices with 3 or fewer years of experience (appendix table
Teachers bring a variety of knowledge, skills, and experience into their classrooms, but conditions in their schools and districts also influence their effectiveness in promoting student outcomes and their decisions about remaining in the profession. This section presents indicators of district and school attributes that affect teachers' success, including the assignment of teachers to subjects, initial and ongoing professional development, salaries, and working conditions.
Over the past decade, few issues related to teaching quality have received more attention than in-field teaching assignment in middle and high schools (Almy and Theokas 2010; Dee and Cohodes 2008; Peske and Haycock 2006). NCLB mandates that all students have teachers who demonstrate competence in subject knowledge and teaching. NCLB does not provide specific guidance or criteria for adequate preparation to teach mathematics and science, however, leaving that task to states.
To determine whether teachers have subject-specific preparation for the fields they teach, recent research focused on matching teachers' formal preparation (as indicated by degree major and certification field) with their teaching field (Hill and Gruber 2011; McGrath, Holt, and Seastrom 2005; Morton et al. 2008). Following this line of research, the National Science Board (2010b) distinguished four levels of formal preparation for teaching mathematics and science at the middle and high school levels.[41] In order of decreasing rigor of preparation, they are as follows:
In-field mathematics teachers in public middle schools increased from 53% in 2003 to 64% in 2007 (table
The level of in-field mathematics and science teachers in high schools did not change between 2003 and 2007. In both years, large majorities of high school mathematics teachers (87% in 2003 and 88% in 2007), biology/life science teachers (92% in 2003 and 93% in 2007), and physical science teachers (78% in 2003 and 82% in 2007) taught in field. Relatively few (3% or lower) mathematics and science teachers in high schools had general education preparation.
In-field teachers were more likely in low-minority and low-poverty schools than in their high-minority and high-poverty counterparts (appendix table
In-field mathematics teaching became somewhat more common at high-poverty and high-minority middle schools between 2003 and 2007; for example, the rate of in-field mathematics teachers increased from 47% to 65% at high-poverty middle schools and from 51% to 61% at high-minority middle schools.
Professional development enables teachers to update their knowledge, sharpen their skills, and acquire new teaching techniques, all of which may enhance the quality of teaching and learning (Davis, Petish, and Smithey 2006; Richardson and Placier 2001). Research indicates that professional development can have measurable effects on student performance; an analysis examining outcomes across 16 studies of professional development for mathematics and science teachers found that professional development had statistically significant effects on student performance in mathematics (CCSSO 2009).[42]
New Teacher Induction and Support. Professional development often begins during a teachers' first year in the classroom. Without sufficient support and guidance, teachers in their first and second years may struggle, become less committed to teaching, and leave the profession altogether (Smith and Ingersoll 2004; Smith and Rowley 2005). Teacher induction programs at the school, local, or state level are designed to help teachers in their first 2 years improve their professional practice, deepen their understanding of teaching, and prevent early attrition (Britton et al. 2003; Fulton, Yoon, and Lee 2005; Smith and Ingersoll 2004).
Participation in new teacher induction programs is becoming more common. Among new public middle and high school teachers with fewer than 5 years of experience in 2007, 79% of mathematics and 73% of science teachers had participated in an induction program during their first year, compared with 71% of mathematics teachers and 68% of science teachers in 2003 (appendix table
The extent to which these programs help new teachers be more effective is unclear: a recent nationwide study of induction programs at the elementary level found no effects on student achievement for teachers who received a single year of induction, and effects on student achievement for teachers in 2-year induction programs were evident only in teachers' third year of teaching (Glazerman et al. 2010). The study found no relationship between participation in new teacher induction and retention of teachers during their first 4 years. Some research suggests that a subject-matter match between teachers and induction programs improves outcomes for teachers (Luft 2009; Luft et al. 2010), but this question was not examined in the national study.
Ongoing Professional Development. Teachers' professional development does not end after their first few years of teaching. Ongoing training is often mandated by state regulations and delivered by school districts to teachers throughout their careers. In 2007, more than three-quarters of mathematics and science teachers in public middle and high schools received professional development in the content of their teaching subject during the previous 12 months (figure
The duration of professional development programs is often shorter than what research suggests may be desirable. Although more research is needed to establish a threshold, some studies have suggested 80 hours or more of professional development is necessary to affect teacher practice (Banilower et al. 2006; CCSSO 2009; NSB 2008). Among teachers who received professional development in their subject area, 28% of mathematics and 29% of science teachers received 33 hours or more (figure
The three top priority areas for professional development programs identified by mathematics and science teachers at public middle and high schools were student discipline and classroom management, the content of their main subject field, and use of technology in instruction (appendix table
Financial incentives have been associated with increased teacher recruitment (Berry 2004; Steele, Murnane, and Willet 2009) and retention (Clotfelter et al. 2008; Hanushek, Kain, and Rivkin 2004) (see sidebar "Teacher Attrition"). In 2007, 15% of school districts offered pay incentives in fields of shortage—usually mathematics, science, and special education—and 10% offered rewards for excellence in teaching (Aritomi and Coopersmith 2009). Whether these policies improve overall teaching quality has not been established (Fryer 2011; Hanushek et al. 2005; Hanushek and Rivkin 2007; Rand Corporation 2006; Springer et al. 2010).
Research has indicated that teachers earn less than other professionals with similar levels of education (AFT 2008; Allegretto, Corcoran, and Mishel 2008; Hanushek and Rivkin 2007). The circumstances of employment and the nature of the work differ between teachers and non-teachers, however, and may account for salary differences to some extent. Teachers are more likely than other professionals to work in rural areas, for example, where costs of living and salaries are lower (Taylor 2008). Selecting the appropriate comparison group for teachers also complicates salary comparisons: some research uses figures for most fields requiring a bachelor's degree (AFT 2008), and at least one study suggests that a smaller set of occupations requiring more similar skills may be more appropriate (Milanowski 2008).
In 2007, the average base salary of middle and high school mathematics and science teachers was approximately $50,000, based on teachers' reports in SASS (appendix table
When asked to rate their satisfaction with their salaries, slightly more than half of mathematics teachers reported being satisfied (figure
Like salaries, working conditions play a role in determining the supply of qualified teachers and influencing their decisions about remaining in the profession. Safe environments, strong administrative leadership, cooperation among teachers, high levels of parent involvement, and sufficient learning resources can improve teacher effectiveness, enhance commitment to their schools, and promote job satisfaction (Berry, Smylie, and Fuller 2008; Brill and McCartney 2008; Guarino, Santibanez, and Daley 2006; Ingersoll and May 2010).
SASS asked teachers whether they agreed with several statements about their school environments and working conditions. Although agreement was not unanimous, large majorities of mathematics and science teachers at public middle and high schools agreed with the following statements regarding their working conditions in 2007: 88% of mathematics and 86% of science teachers reported that the principal knows what kind of school he or she wants and has communicated it to the staff; 85% of mathematics and 82% of science teachers agreed that the necessary materials for teaching were available; and 76% of mathematics and 73% of science teachers agreed that staff were recognized for a job well done (appendix table
Responses to some questions differed, however, with the composition of the school's student body. For example, about half of mathematics teachers at high-poverty and high-minority schools reported that students' tardiness and class cutting interfered with teaching, compared with 34–35% of teachers at low-poverty and low-minority schools (figure
Teacher perceptions about certain problems in their schools improved slightly between 2003 and 2007. The percentage of mathematics and science teachers at middle and high schools reporting student apathy and students coming to school unprepared to learn as serious problems declined from 2003 to 2007. For example, 28% of mathematics teachers in 2007, compared with 31% in 2003, identified student apathy as a serious problem at their schools (appendix table
Although these improvements were small overall, most of the improvement in teachers' responses occurred at schools with high concentrations of low-income and minority students. For example, in 2003, 48% of mathematics teachers at high-poverty schools reported that student apathy was a serious problem, compared with 12% at low-poverty schools—a gap of 36 percentage points (figure

Jennifer Aniston says her directing debut was "a challenge," but she was able to turn to her beau Justin Theroux for moral support on the set of the Lifetime movie Five.
Though Theroux shied away from walking the red carpet at Skylight Soho with Aniston Monday night at the New York premiere of Five – a collection of five short films about breast cancer by female directors including Aniston, Demi Moore and Alicia Keys – he spent a lot of time hanging around the set of the movie, according to Penelope Spheeris, one of Aniston's co-directors.
Spheeris, who also directed Wayne's World, said the couple were "lovey-dovey" on set – though she still didn't know who Theroux was until they were officially introduced.
"She introduced [Justin] to me and I'm like, 'Who?'," Spheeris recalled. "Someone was like, 'That was her boyfriend!' "
RELATED: Jennifer Aniston & Justin Theroux's Date Night
Walking the red carpet after Theroux went straight into the event space Monday night, Aniston, 41, was asked what she loved most about her life now.
Her answer? "Everything!"
Despite its difficulties, Aniston said directing was a wonderful experience nonetheless.
"There's not one thing I didn't love about it," she told reporters.
At the afterparty, where Aniston chatted and took photos with fans, Theroux, 40, brought her a drink before the pair left together through a back door, stopping for a fan's cell phone snapshot on their way out, according to an onlooker.

Amber Hutzell floated to the surface of the water. Her lips were blue. She had no pulse
Amber Hutzell floated to the surface of the water. Her lips were blue. She had no pulse.
Amber, who was 13 at the time, was on the verge of death and then, for two years, the Hutzell family watched her recovery.
She learned to walk, talk and ride a bike. The family pasted pictures throughout the home, daily reminders to Amber for how to brush her teeth, answer the door, make her bed or put on her clothes.
Her memory, wiped clean by the accident, slowly returned. The family she didn't recognize became familiar again. Memories from ages 6 or 8 popped into her head at random times.
Amber isn't the same girl that she was before she spent a week in the intensive care unit at Spartanburg Regional, her mother said. But she's close.
And this summer, her journey from the brink ended in an unlikely place — the waters of Costa Rica.
Amber nearly died on July 1, 2011, after hitting her head while making a turn at the Lantern Ridge Community Pool on the west side of Spartanburg.
From the water, family and friends saw Hutzell go into a seizure. The screams from her sister, Makayla, woke neighbors as a lifeguard and Hutzell's father, Jim, pulled the girl from the water and performed CPR.
After a week in the hospital, Amber came home, Kim Hutzell said, but needed 24/7 care for the next three weeks.
Over the last two years, the family lost count of the numerous appointments, she said.
There was the neurologist, the physical therapist, the occupational therapist, the speech therapist — Kim Hutzell ticks them off one by one.
Her daughter changed in other ways, too. Once an avid artist, Amber can't draw anymore. The simplest tasks were foreign.
When Jim Hutzell was in his own accident at the family home, he had Amber call 911, but Amber couldn't tell the operator where she lived.
"Everything was pretty much wiped out," Kim Hutzell said. "She had to relearn everything."
But one thing never changed. Amber, despite her accident, loved the water. Last year, in the midst of her recovery, the family went on vacation to Hawaii, Kim Hutzell said. The family found a surf instructor who spent days with Amber in a quiet cove, teaching her one-on-one.
Amber said she fell in love. She added surfing to her growing list of goals:
Learn to ride a bike.
Go to camp.
Fly by herself to Iowa to see her grandparents.
Those goals kept Amber going, her mother said, and the family pushed her, not letting her settle for anything less.
Amber, a member of Girl Scout Troop 267, applied for a program that would give her the opportunity to reach that goal. Through the scouts, she applied for Outward Bound Costa Rica's Catching Waves Destination, a 10-day program meant to inspire and develop leadership, compassion, responsibility and respect for the environment.
To her surprise, Amber was picked to be one of participants and by late June, she was living in a tent on a beach in Costa Rica, hiking through the jungle and eating home-cooked meals caught fresh from the sea.
Speaking of the trip, Amber gets so excited that her words can't seem to come fast enough.
"I kept asking, 'Is this real?'" she said. "We would go walk the beach at night and look for turtle eggs. I got better and better at surfing, and we ziplined through the jungle."
Officials with Outward Bound Costa Rica said the program is meant to present physical, mental and emotional challenges to girls while teaching them to surf on world-famous breaks and working with local conservation efforts.
Eight girls joined Amber in Costa Rica during her trip, and only 120 Girl Scouts were selected from across the country for Outward Bound programs in Costa Rica and Panama, officials said.
"Outward Bound asks people to face tasks that may seem impossible," said Jim Rowe, executive director of Outward Bound Costa Rica. "Confronting these tasks, participants must call upon individual reserves of strength and perseverance they might not think exist. At other times, they might find that success requires the help of companions and reliance upon the overall strengths represented within a group."
Amber, of course, was no stranger to challenges.
On July 1, on the two-year anniversary of her accident, Amber again found herself in water, but this time she waded in ocean waves.
"I was in the water and I was thinking of it the whole time," she said of the accident. "I've just come so far."
Back in Spartanburg, her parents were both ecstatic and "scared to death" while Amber was overseas for the first time in her life.
At the airport, the family had embraced and cried before Amber's flight.
"She had worked so hard," Kim Hutzell said. "We didn't want to insulate her. We weren't going to put her in bubble wrap."
Before the accident, Amber was set to enter the eighth grade. Afterwards, she had the mind of a third-grader. Doctors told the family to keep their expectations low during her recovery, but no one bothered to tell Amber that.
Now 15, Amber is a rising 10th-grader at Dorman High School, her mother said. She's on the swim team, and in preparation for the trip to Costa Rica, completed lifeguard training. With every day, Amber builds back the life she once had, but she still has her list of goals, too.
Next on the list: go seizure-free long enough that she can get her learner's permit and start driving.
Kim Hutzell doesn't doubt her daughter.
"She doesn't give up. She just keeps going," she said. "She's surpassed everything. Who knows what she can do next?"

Build Guide by Madmack

Fiddlesticks Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Chapter 1
This guide is very out of date. Sorry! I would like to update it soon as my title is quite epic, just haven't had the time yet! Check back at a later time :)
Here's the deal guys. I really loved playing Fiddlesticks before the patch. I was alright with him, hard to know for sure, but I think I was probably about 50/50 with him in the wins/loss column, but the recent buffs to Fiddlesticks make him an absolute powerhouse!
1. An absolutely awesome jungler.
2. Phenomenal in team fights (surprise, triple kill!)
3. Excellent crowd control abilities.
4. Self-healing.
5. Most powerful damage-over-time damage dealer.
1. Very squishy, easily killed if focused.
2. Poor Mana Regen.
3. Cast time on Ultimate Ability requires setup time.
4. Crowd control interrupts a lot of damage on his Drain ability.
5. No burst damage.
Early Game Preference: Jungle
Doran's Ring is the first item of choice, and as a Jungling Fiddle with this rune setup, you will need the 10 AP that it gives. Another option is to take an Amplifying Tomb for late game upgrading. I prefer the Ring for extra survivability and Mana Regen.
Fiddle should kill the Golem first, but again, with this rune build, a little bit of finesse will aid you greatly. Watch this video to see. A few auto-attacks before the first Drain will give you the edge to finish with full HP and plenty of mana to jump right into to killing the Wolf-Pack.
This video outlines my jungling method if I don't do any ganking before level 6 (Yi was just too low hp, I couldn't resist, even if he is a Bot hehe). Sorry about the video quality, I had a browser running, and I realized later that my virus scanner was updating, so the quality is poor. I added some fun/relaxing music to compensate! :D Enjoy.
Mid-Game: Jungle Clearing, Ganking, Lane Pushing, Over-all Floater
Mid-Game for fiddle, is really game dependent:
1. If my team is over-all winning, I will often continue to dominate the jungle while ganking as viable.
2. If my team is struggling in a lane, I will help out with controlling and pushing that lane to get a tower destroy, continuing to clear jungle mobs is still a priority unless the opposing team is just completely dominating.
Late Game: Team Fight Master
Fiddle is all about timing. When to join the fight is imperative. The key is to watch for ultimates to go off for the other team, or people focusing on other targets. Basically, you want to make sure that when you Ult in... you're not going to get auto-focused, controlled, and killed.
Doran's Ring
10 Ability Power, 120 Health, 5 Mana Per 5 Sec. Early Game Item of choice. Adds survivability, Mana-Regen, and Ability Power.
Sorcerer's Shoes
20 Magic Penetration. UNIQUE Passive: Enhanced Movement 2 Boots of choice. Magic Penetration is absolutely huge for Fiddlesticks' damage dealing viability.
Rod of Ages
80 Ability Power, 650 Health, 725 Mana. Passive: Your Champion gains 18 Health, 20 Mana, and 2 Ability Power every 1 min. Bonuses cap at +270 Health, +300 Mana and +30 Ability Power. Lots of added ability power, and survivability. In addition, the extra mana will make a huge difference since this build lacks a lot of mana regeneration.
Zhonya's Ring
120 Ability Power. UNIQUE Passive: Increases Ability Power by 25%. UNIQUE Active: Places your champion into Stasis for 2 seconds, rendering you invulnerable and untargetable but unable to take any actions. 90 sec cooldown. This item is incredibly powerful in conjunction with his ultimate. If you ult in and get focused immediately, you can pop this item to continue doing the damage that you need while staying alive.
Void Staff
70 Ability Power. UNIQUE Passive: +40% Magic Penetration. The +40% Magic Penetration is Huge! In addition to the 70 extra ability power, this is a must-have item for Fiddlesticks.
Abyssal Scepter
70 Ability Power, 57 Magic Resist. UNIQUE Aura: Reduces the Magic Resist of nearby enemy champions by 20. This item is excellent, it will add some extra survivability with magic resistance, and will assist you and your other AP damage dealers with nice boost in damage. Skip this item of course, if someone else on your team has it.
Rylai's Crystal Scepter
80 Ability Power, 500 Health. Passive: Dealing spell damage slows the target's movement speed by 35% for 2 seconds (15% for multi-target spells). I almost never make it this far, however if I do, this item is my Doran's Ring replacement of choice. It ups my survivability, and it ups the power of the ultimate by giving it a 15% slow. It also gives the Drain ability a 35% slow. A very, very nice upgrade from Doran's Ring.
Archangel's Staff
45 Ability Power, 400 Mana, 25 Mana Per 5 Sec. Passive: 3% of your Max Mana is converted to Ability Power. UNIQUE Passive: Each time your Champion uses an Ability their Maximum Mana will increase by 4 Mana. This effect has a 3 second cooldown. Bonus caps at 1000 mana. I will pick up this item if for some reason I don't grab Abyssal Scepter, or depending on how the game is going, I might get this item over Rylai's Crystal Scepter (but not often).
Summoner Skills:
Teleports your champion to target nearby location. This Summoner Spell is extremely important. It can get you in and out of trouble if you screw up on your ultimate ability teleport.
Your champion ignores unit collision and moves 32% faster for 14 seconds. This ability is huge for keeping people in range of your ultimate, or getting away from a bad situation.
I occasionally go down the Defensive Tree for fun, but 99% of the time, I specialize as the guide suggests. I will discuss the masteries that I think might be unexpected to many. The other one's I'll leave as I believe that they are self-explanatory.
Increases the amount of experience your champion gains by 5% (4th rank). I pick this mastery, because as a jungler your natural experience gain, puts you behind everyone else. However, with this 5% gain you should easily keep pace with everyone else, perhaps leveling faster than the side lanes.
Generates 1 gold every 10 seconds. This mastery is optional, but I always have a hard time arguing against extra gold. :) Let's be honest, at 30 minutes, it's only 180 extra gold. But as I said, I have a hard time arguing against extra gold :).
Utility Mastery
Increase the duration of Neutral Monster Buff by 30%. With all the jungling you should be doing, this mastery can prove invaluable.
Increase your base movement speed by 3%. This mastery proves very valuable since you're not grabbing boots of swiftness, and fiddlesticks has an overall slow movement speed.
Greater Mark of Insight x9
8.55 Magic Penetration These runes are imperative for any AP Damage Champion.
Greater Seal of Vitality x9
9.72 Health per level (174.96 at 18) Best Primary Seal for Fiddlesticks in terms of survivability.
Greater Glyph of Insight x9
5.13 Magic Penetration I used to use Ability Power per Level runes here. But I found that late game viability demanded that I switch to Magic Penetration Glyphs.
Greater Quintessence of Insight x9
5.67 Magic Penetration Again, magic penetration is so important for Fiddlesticks.

Marco Rubio opposition researcher Joe Pounder taunted Sarah Palin on Monday after she cancelled her speech for Donald Trump — but before the reason was made public.
Palin canceled because her husband Todd was hospitalized in a "bad snow machine accident."
"@realdonaldtrump surrogate operation not really working" Pounder said in response to Palin's cancellation.
.@realDonaldTrump surrogate operation not really working… https://t.co/ngCLKXLhOs
— Joe Pounder (@PounderFile) March 14, 2016
Pounder has not offered a follow-up tweet apologizing for his remarks as of this writing.
Palin was supposed to appear at a Trump rally in the Villages in Florida, but could not make it due to Todd's accident. She later made it to a Trump event in Tampa and then returned to tend to her husband.
Pounder has been responsible for running a full-fledged attack on Trump from his perch at the Rubio campaign. As Breitbart News reported, the Rubio camp launched seven coordinated last-minute attacks on Trump before Super Tuesday. The attacks did not work well, as Rubio continued to decline in the delegate race.
The Rubio campaign did not immediately return a request for comment for this report on Pounder's remarks.

Seinfeld *67 Named Tyler Laureate
John H. Seinfeld *67, the Louis E. Nohl Professor of Chemical Engineering at the California Institute of Technology, will share the 2012 Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement, an honor widely regarded as the premier award for environmental science, environmental health, and energy. This prize recognizes Seinfeld's groundbreaking work leading to understanding of the origin, chemistry, and evolution of particles in the atmosphere. The fundamental understanding of the physics and chemistry of urban and regional air pollution that emerged from his research served as the basis for action to control the effects of air pollution on public health. Seinfeld's recent work includes research into how soot billowing from diesel trucks and industrial smokestacks contributes to climate change and how biogenic emissions from plants and trees affects air quality. The Tyler Prize, administered by the University of Southern California, has been awarded since 1973 to researchers and authors who "confer great benefit upon humankind through environmental restoration and achievement." Seinfeld will receive a $100,000 cash prize and a gold medal, and will deliver a public lecture at USC on April 26 entitled, "Chemical Reactions Leave Microscopic, Oily Droplets in the Air We Breathe". For more information, see the USC press release, and articles in the L.A. Times and Pasadena Now, which include interviews with Seinfeld.

Episode 45: Losing Our Religion/
For the past 44 episodes of Homeschooling in Real Life, we have been telling the stories of other homeschooling families and talking about shifting our hope to anything but the hope of the gospel, the real hope of Jesus Christ and what He has accomplished for us.
Now it's time to tell our story. In the summer of 2008, we found our 7-week-old baby in a coma, an event that led to a massive overhaul in our marriage, our parenting, and ultimately, our faith in Christ. That sickly baby boy was just the beginning; there would be harder trials and far more refining ahead.
If you are wondering why your own faith feels stagnant or the Christian life joyless, join us as we share what unlocked the self-made prison doors and caused us to lose our religion but find a deeper, more glorious faith in the power of the cross!

RPWB is uniquely qualified to seek justice on behalf of those killed or seriously injured due to defective products, unsafe premises or because of the negligence or malice of another person or company. We help families cover their immediate needs and build a foundation for the future.
You won't see our firm on tv advertisements or on billboards, but you will find us in courtrooms throughout the country fighting for justice on behalf of those who were killed or seriously injured through no fault of their own. We are respected by peers and adversaries alike for our work on complex personal injury and wrongful death cases.
Typically, the law affords compensation to cover medical expenses, long-term care needs and compensation for lost wages as well as punitive awards that take into account the negligence or malice of the at-fault party.
Our attorneys have been helping victims and their families for more than 40 years and have the resources and skill to effectively litigate the most complicated of cases.
Our staff is compassionate and experienced. We do not treat you like a number nor do we utilize a cookie-cutter approach. Every case is different. Every family's circumstances are unique. We will work with you to create an individual course of action that respects your wishes and needs.
RPWB was named a 2016 Best Law Firm by U.S. News & World Report in the areas of products liability and personal injury litigation.
Representative Cases
These are just a few examples of our work on wrongful death and catastrophic personal injury cases. For more information, please use the contact form below to let us know how we may help.
The Electrocution of Manuel Salazar
In 2003, 24-year-old construction worker Manuel Salazar was standing next to a crane at the Lake Murray dam in South Carolina when the crane made contact with power lines. Salazar was electrocuted, causing the loss of both of his arms and legs. RPWB represented him, arguing successfully that Salazar could bring a personal injury lawsuit rather than just a worker's compensation claim. The case was settled for a confidential amount of money, and is thought to be the largest personal injury settlement in South Carolina history. Salazar has shown such incredible determination and spirit in his recovery that Nike to outfitted him with computerized legs. He is married, has three children and started a business. For more about Manuel's story, click here.
Exploding Gas Cans & Other Burn Injuries
RPWB has represented many people who were burned by defective products, including gas cans, deep fryers and gas grills. This included more than 50 people who were hurt or killed by exploding gas cans. One group of clients received more than $60 million from Blitz U.S.A, Inc., and Walmart as a part of a settlement in the Blitz U.S.A., Inc. bankruptcy.
Air Crash at Charlotte International Airport
In 2003, an Air Midwest turboprop plane crashed shortly after takeoff from Charlotte/Douglass International Airport, killing all 21 people abroad. RPWB served as the plaintiff's liaison counsel in the wrongful death lawsuits filed by surviving family members.
Truck wrecks
RPWB has a strong reputation for litigating truck wrecks against drivers, vehicle owners, insurance companies and vehicle manufacturers. We have represented individuals who were killed or suffered severe injuries in truck accidents, including vehicle defect cases involving unguarded sidesaddle fuel tanks and those injured by trucks with insufficient roof support.
Graniteville Train Crash
On January 6, 2005, two Norfolk Southern trains collided in Graniteville, South Carolina, setting off a chain of events that led to the deaths of nine people and injuries to at least 250 others. RPWB lawyers represented many of those hurt or killed as a result of the collision.
Industrial Accidents
An extension of our work to help workers who have suffered from occupational disease, RPWB also helps those who suffer serious injury or death on the job. We have represented workers who were killed or injured by cranes, elevators, shuttles and other pieces of industrial machinery.
