No no, this has nothing to do with the failed English FA campaign for Respect to Referees in Football. This is about a phone call, earlier this week with a friend of mine.
IIM-Ahmedabad came up with it's admissions criteria for the Batch of 2012 (CAT 2011) earlier this week.
After satisfying the cutoffs in each section and overall ,Personally I have no opinion on the criteria. But the person I spoke to, was an aspirant for CAT-2011 and in my opinion deserves to get into one of the IIMs. He was unlucky the last time around, and gave up admission in one of the premier non-IIM institutes to give CAT another shot. The news of this criteria was real bad news for the guy as it reduced his chances of a call drastically, as compared to last year's criteria due to a fraction of a mark in UG. Rather than rejoicing with a 27 that would have nearly guaranteed a call after clearing the CAT percentile requirements, he was left to ponder over an 18 or 19.
70% weightage is given to the CAT/GMAT score and 30% weightage is given to the Application Rating Score.
Application Rating (AR): 2012-14
Rating Score <60:1pt, 60-80:2 pts, >80: 3pts
A: Percentage score in 10th Std. Exam
B: Percentage score in 12th Std. Exam
C: Percentage score in Bachelor's Degree Exam
D: Percentage score in Master's Degree Exam
E: Work Experience
<1 Year: 1pts, 1-2 Years: 2pts 2+ Years: 3pts
Application rating: (A*B*C)+D+E
I have seen plenty of people cribbing about the new criteria. Many of these guys will probably crib about anything and everything under the sun, unless they aren't affected by it. Normalisation will have them cribbing, cut offs like the previous year would have them cribbing. Weightage for 10th and 12th will have them cribbing. High weightage for CAT score, compared to the interview will, as well.
The conversation with this friend of mine was a breath of fresh air. The guy who should have been highly disappointed, and cribbing (I probably would even agree with him cribbing). But he took it in his stride and preferred to use his energies in getting a good CAT score rather than waste time cribbing about something that is out of his hands. I loved his "I cant do anything much about this now. Let me rather prepare for CAT and ensure other calls than crib about this" attitude.
If I had been in his position, I'd probably have been cribbing to death about it. This conversation taught me to leave aside things outside our control and rather work at things that we can still influence and are in our hands, than such stuff which we can do nothing about.
Dude, if you are reading this, RESPECT. You are someone who deserves it this time around. Hope you get through to a B-School of your choice this year!

Seven-year-olds will be expected to count to 100, use basic fractions and recite fairy tales and poems by heart under a toughening up of primary school assessments in the three-Rs.
The Department for Education said teachers would be expected to rate children's performance on a new four-point scale – set around a clear "national standard" – after two years of compulsory schooling.
According to draft guidance, pupils hitting the standard at seven should be able to "read and write numbers to at least 100", count in steps of two and five, add and subtract two-digit numbers in their head, understand how percentages work and begin to find 1/3 and 1/4 of a small set of objects.
In reading, children should "fluently and effortlessly" access a range of texts, learn a "wide range of poetry by heart", retell fairy stories and traditional tales, demonstrate tone and intonation when reading aloud and distinguish between statements of fact and opinion.
New writing assessments will require pupils to produce their own poems, use legible handwriting with some joined up letters and "almost always" employ accurate punctuation, including capital letters, full stops, commas and apostrophes.
The standards cover assessments made by teachers in the classroom at the end of Key Stage 1 – for children aged five to seven – and will sit alongside the government's new national curriculum.
From 2015/16, results will be used by the DfE and Ofsted to judge performance in primary schools.
Under the reforms, teachers will be expected to judge whether pupils are performing below the standard, working towards it, meeting the required level or achieving a higher "mastery standard".
New national standards will replace an existing system in which pupils are assigned a "level" from one to eight between the age of seven and 14.
The guidance document said levels were scrapped because they were "not closely related to curriculum content, were ambiguous and open to different interpretations".
Russell Hobby, general secretary of the National Association of Head Teachers, said: "It is important to set a national standard so that parents and teachers know, broadly, what the expectations are for their children.
"In maths, it is certainly the case that this represents higher expectations for younger children, with more advanced concepts such as fractions at an earlier age. Some of the technical aspects of English are also more demanding but the real step change is in maths."
The guidance – which is subject to a public consultation until mid-December – covers teacher assessments of the core subjects of reading, writing, maths and science for pupils aged seven and 11.
Teacher judgments are the only form of assessment at seven. At the age of 11, pupils are subjected to teacher assessments alongside formal SATs tests. Assessments are used to judge school performance in writing but formal test results are principally used in all other disciplines.
According to the writing standards, 11-year-olds should use a thesaurus and dictionary to improve their written work, employ vocabulary and grammar to suit formal and informal situations and accurately spell words with silent letters.
The maths standards – which sit alongside test results – say that pupils should be able to read and compare numbers up to 10 million, find prime numbers up to 19, use long multiplication to multiply four digit numbers, use simple algebra and read Roman numerals up to 1,000 (M).

SSN: How did you discover Supernatural?
Nur: I discovered it pretty late, in mid 2008 to be exact. I had finally finished watching the last seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel and I was going through major withdrawals. I remember going online to look some things up about the shows, and stumbled on a trailer in iTunes. It showed these two guys in a car, and they looked like they were hunting a ghost. My first reaction – Ugh! Buffy and Angel wannabes. LOL! I know, but I was still upset about my favorite shows ending. One night my mom was watching this T.V. Show and she called me in and said I should watch this, cause it was right up my alley. I love my mom! Guess what the first episode I saw was … Dead In The Water. Guess who I saw first on screen … Amy Acker aka Fred! Supernatural and I were meant to be 🙂
SSN: What is your favorite Supernatural episode and why?
Nur: Oh, wow! This is a mean question! I have so many that are my favorites. But, since I have to choose … Two Minutes To Midnight. Because it was the episode that lead up to the conclusion of Mr. Kripke's five year story arc. It was the climax of everything that happened, action packed and drama filled! I loved how we got to see the boys truly come together and work as a team to save the world. It was also wonderful to see Bobby get his legs back and be a part of the fight with the boys. The introduction of Death, and the O' Death playing in the background was just chilling! Crowley proved to be a valuable asset as well as the enemy. This episode was truly the finale for me, and Swan Song was the very dramatic and heartbreaking credits and the "To Be Continued" that lead into the new arc.
SSN: What is your least favorite Supernatural episode and why?
Nur: Um… these are such evil questions! … Fallen Idols. Surprisingly, my choice has nothing to do with Paris Hilton either. The episode had it's moments, the lore was interesting, but I really wanted more from the monsters. It was a monsters of the week episode, but it felt kind of rushed. A few things were brought up that weren't elaborated on and it left me feeling a bit unsatisfied. I was also upset that it looked like the boys were falling back into a routine that never worked for them. The ending eased my fears a bit, but it still felt rushed and in the end I was yelling at my screen for more!
SSN: Who is your favorite villain?
Nur: Ruby! Out of all the villains on the show, she was the one who set the standards of true manipulative evilness! Unlike Meg, who was awesome, but couldn't help showing it off, Ruby was able to tone it down and adjust the evil meter. She was abrupt and nasty whenever she talked to Dean, but was also understanding and appealed to his major weakness, Sam, by being there for his little brother when he was in hell. Ruby was hard with Sam when she needed to be and gentle when Sam was vulnerable and lost. She twisted him up and made him think she was an ally and when she accomplished her true goal, she showed her true face. She was never truly anything but evil, however, she was able to alter herself to come across as good. Which for me makes the best kind of villain and weapon.
SSN: How do you promote Supernatural?
Nur: Oh. I do a lot! I make videos, art, and I've even started writing fanfiction. I tweet about it, re-tweet about it and try my best to support the show through the charity that Jared endorses (A Dog's Life Rescue). Whenever there's an opportunity to bring up anything remotely Supernatural related I don't hesitate to 🙂
SSN: Do you prefer one of the boys over the other? If so, which one?
Nur: You guys are such meany pants! I love both of them! However, I do find myself a bit possessive over Sam. It's the eyes and that face, actually it's the whole package 🙂 I do love them both though, in the sense that I will not bash one to make the other look good, I will not blame one for the mistakes and wrongs committed and I will stand up for whoever is being unlawfully bashed. So, I'm pretty healthy with a side of possessiveness over Sammy 😉
SSN: If you could be in ANY Supernatural episode, which would you choose and why?
Nur: I would totally be in my element in The Real Ghostbusters! I don't role play, not one bit. But I loved Nancy Drew as a little girl and I couldn't help but get that Nancy Drew vibe from this episode. I would have loved to have been a part of the mystery and finding clues and working with the Winchesters, the real ones 😉
SSN: What one character would you love to see back on Supernatural?
Nur: Well, I've always wanted Rufus to be a regular, like Bobby. However, we've seen him in a recent episode, so I would love to see Missouri back. I think she would be of great use in the current events of Sammy and Dean. I really do think she would be able to help them and give them the answers they need. They could use someone who isn't as cryptic as the angels, as manipulative as the demons and as suspicious as the Campbells.
SSN: How do you want the show to end?
Nur: I don't want it to end! … but if it had to, I would love for it to end with both boys mended, mentally and in their relationship. I would love to see them smile, truly smile and be able to sit and have a beer together and just bond and talk. I would want them to continue to hunt, but to also be able to do things that would give them a sense of peace and satisfaction, whether it be with a girl they really like, or watching old horror movies with each other. I know, I'm a terrible romantic, but I want my boys to be okay 🙂
SSN: What other TV shows do you watch religiously?
Nur: I watch Firefly and Dollhouse, even though they're cancelled. I watch Lie To Me, Kings, all the CSIs, Bones and Leverage.
SSN: Where can we find you on the Internet?

We've seen some pretty amusing pieces of legislation out of the Board of Supervisors, but this one beats them all: Supervisor Michela Alioto-Pier wants organizers of the San Francisco Italian American parade to boot Tommy Lasorda as grand marshal. And my initial question is: Doesn't she have any more important things to do? Her district suffers from bad roads, bad drunks and a sagging economy (like everywhere else). Is Tommy Lasorda at the Italian American parade really reside at the top of her list or priorities?
For those of you who don't know or care, Lasorda is the former manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who've had "an intense rivalry" with our hometown Giants for years and "nobody embodies that more than Tommy Lasorda," states the resolution.
The Giants aren't doing so great, it continues, and "Dodger fans are boastful and smug." Furthermore, there are "many other distinguished local Italian American athletes" like Giants pitcher Barry Zito "or even Joe Montana" who could do the important job of waving from a convertible. (I can see Montana, but Zito? He made a ton of cash from the Giants this season and played consistently bad baseball.
The parade is scheduled for Oct. 12, so Alioto-Pier is trying to get the legislation passed at the board's next meeting, Oct. 7.
But is this really how the supervisors should be spending their time?
"We can't have Tommy Lasorda come to San Francisco for the Italian American parade!" Alioto-Pier said. "He's like enemy No. 1 right now. If you don't think this is important, you should move to L.A."

I've touched on free will and now I want to discuss it more.
Along with our eternal soul creator gave us comes free will. My interpretation of free will is that the powers that run the universe will not interfere with our choices even if our choices will eventually hurt us. It just isn't allowed. We humans are continually asking for help and if it seems like we did not get that help, we blame God (the universe). God gets blamed for a lot that he has no control over because it falls under our free will. The beautiful part is that we get the help we ask for before and after our choices even is we don't recognize that help.
We each have a guardian angel that is always with us. We can elicit help there if we are aware. Some people have second sight and can actually see their angel/angels. You can be sure they are there, even if you don't believe.
Belief is the prerequisite of the manifestation of the actual help you get. Every human is abundantly cared for. The guarantee of the abundance is there, but the actual knowing that you are receiving such abundance requires your belief in it. This is what I mean by "Free Will". I'll use myself as my example. When I really heard Psalms 23, not the first time, but the first time I really took it to heart, I understood my belief that I was completely taken care of at all times (applying my free will), is when I was able to partake of the abundant table that was set before me in the presence of my enemies. Don't get me wrong, being completely taken care of does not mean that I get everything I want, but I do get everything I need (not what I think I need, but what the universe determines I need). I am always having to practice letting go of any attachment I have to getting what I want.
There is a lot of poverty and starvation in the world which could be the argument against this table of abundance. I certainly cannot explain that one, but maybe it has something to do with the lack of belief that the abundance is actually there. It's been my experience that my belief is my guarantee.
Free will is the opposite of Ego. Until we take charge of our ego by first identifying what it is and how it operates, it is impossible to have access to our free will. This is the state of our societies. Ego is our unconscious programming determining our personality and our definition of what is moral and socially acceptable behavior which is separate from all other selves. Ego is our driver and is on auto pilot determining what our reactions will be in any given situation. Our ego is only of this world. It has nothing to do with our real self, our eternal self. In other words it only seems to exist like all other aspects of the world that is not eternal. Once you understand your ego and why you do and say the things you do and say, you can now actually have a choice and you may choice to evoke free will over ego. The trick to eternal happiness and bliss while playing in this world is to turn your free will over to the love that rules the universe. I'm not there yet. It takes an enlightened individual to accomplish it. The practice is so worth it.

Portsmouth's Labour Leader has raised concerns at the potential loss of another high street brand from the city centre following a major announcement by an international retailer.
M&S has confirmed today that it is considering closing its store in the Cascades Shopping Centre, Commercial Road, and is now consulting with 100 staff members at the store about the move.
If the proposal goes ahead, staff would be redeployed at nearby stores, with closure early next year.
Whilst news that the company plan to open a new food hall at Ocean Retail Park in Burrfields Road early in 2018 is welcomed, there is concern over the impact of this potential decision by the store on the rest of the city centre's important shopping area.
Portsmouth Labour has been calling for a better deal to regenerate our city centre, and create something for future generations to be proud of.
Earlier this year, Cllr Stephen Morgan, who represents the city centre on the council, called for more action to be taken to make Commercial Road a destination once more.
He said:
"These latest proposals from M&S are a real concern to local people. More must be done to keep international retailers and well-known brands on our high streets.
I'm committed to securing a prosperous future for our city. And to do that, Portsmouth needs to retain businesses and attract more private sector investment to help create the good quality jobs that local people need.
It's time the heart of our city gets its beat back and is a destination once again".

At Tippin's, we couldn't be more proud to be a part of the Kansas City community. Since 1980 with the opening of the first Tippin's Restaurant, Tippin's has served fresh, hand-crafted pies to the Kansas City area and beyond. Like any true Kansas Citian, we also love high-quality, traditional Kansas City barbecue. We recently paired up with the wonderful team at Fiorella's Jack Stack Barbecue to test out the ultimate Kansas City food pairing: Tippin's Pies and Jack Stack Barbecue. Founded in 1957, Jack Stack is a Kansas City barbecue legend, and their tasty offerings made for the perfect pairings with some of Tippin's classic fruit pies. Here are our favorite pie and barbecue combinations:
Apple PieTippin's Apple Pie has a classic, all-American flavor, full of tangy, fresh apples and warm spices. We knew we would need something bold and spicy to provide a nice contrast for the subtle and smooth apple flavor. We had trouble deciding between two different beloved Jack Stack dishes (so naturally we were forced to take a few extra delicious bites of each). The Beef Ribs, with their rich, earthy flavor, complemented the lightly spiced apples. However, the Beef Ribs faced some fierce competition from the Beef Brisket sandwich. Paired with Jack Stack's famous spicy barbecue sauce, the juicy brisket sandwich had a hot kick of flavor that proved a great contrast to the Apple Pie.
Peach PieTippin's Peach Pie is a brightly flavored and boldly sweet fruit pie. We wondered if the distinctive peach flavor might make it difficult to pair, but we found its match in Jack Stack's equally bold Barbecue Chicken. Their tender, bone-in and perfectly cooked Barbecue Chicken stands out for its seriously delicious spicy rub. The flavor of the chicken provided the perfect base for both bold spice and sweet peach notes.
Cherry PieTippin's Cherry Pie is a delectable blend of tart and sweet. We use only Montmorency cherries for these pies, in order to ensure the best quality of fruit and the brightest, most appetizing cherry red color. We loved pairing this fresh fruit pie with Jack Stack's succulent Baby Back Ribs. The rich, fatty flavor of the ribs held its own against the bold tartness of the cherries.
Strawberry Rhubarb PieTippin's Strawberry Rhubarb Pie has that sweet, classic taste reminiscent of summertime and Grandma's cooking. There were two strong contenders to pair with the Strawberry Rhubarb Pie: the Spare Ribs and the Pulled Pork Sandwich. The Spare Ribs have an undertone of fruitiness that blossomed against the subtle sweetness of the pie, while the tender Pulled Pork Sandwich with Jack Stack's original barbecue sauce proved another perfect complement to the pie.

Screen Time
Now parents do we really need scientists to tell us that lots of screen time is bad for our kids? We are the ones living with them day in and day out. We are the ones putting up with their tantrums when we take the IPAD away. We are the ones who have that gut parenting guilt as we watch them stare mindlessly at the screen day after day. Even if scientists told us letting our kids stare at screens all day would turn them into geniuses would we really believe them?? We don't need scientific studies to tell us that screens aren't the best parenting move of the century. There is a reason one of the top searches for kids is "HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH SCREEN TIME." Most of you are probably googling how much screen time is too much because you are looking for motivation and ideas to help curb what you already know is a problem.
The real question is how. How do we get these screen crazed kids to do something else? Every time we try they cry and complain, they beg and nag and basically drive us crazy so… WE GIVE IN!!!!
My dad handled it by giving me a big chore every time he saw me watching T.V. He told me if I didn't have anything better to do than watch TV he would give me something to do. It worked in that whenever I heard him coming I shut off the TV and ran.
I know other parents who in an attempt to get their kids away from technology overschedule their kids for all sorts of extra activities. They sign them up for every sport or activity available and then parenting becomes a full-time taxi job.
I have an idea that is better than both of those options. It is called nature. It is a great solution for both us and our kids.
Nature is the Answer
Studies have shown that nature is amazing for us as humans. It increases our happiness and increases our positive outlook on life. It helps decrease depression and stress and it is literally like breathing a breath of fresh air in our lives. I have observed from my own experience with my kids that it increases imagination and their ability to invent and play. For myself, nature gives me a fresh perspective and helps me feel less stressed. Nature makes me feel calm and relaxed. If I leave my phone off or home I get a minute to breath and relax from everything crazy around me. This is not to mention the exercise we get outside that we all know is good for us. Our kids are more likely to want to cooperate because from a small age our kids love 2 things. 1. Going outside. 2. Spending time with us.
This makes spending time in nature every day a perfect solution to the problem of too much screen time. It could be as simple as a walk around the neighborhood or walking to the park. Riding bikes or kicking the soccer ball together at the park. I love sledding in the winter and swimming at the lake in the summer. Hikes all year round.
Mix Technology and Nature
I make going outside more fun for my son by including technology. One way I do this is to have him watch things about nature and then go experience them together. Wild Kratts from PBS Kids http://pbskids.org/wildkratts/ is a great show about nature. My son loves it. I do things like have him watch and learn about ocean habitats from the website and then go to the ocean to experience what he has learned. There are tons of places like PBS kids that make learning about nature fun. This teaches him a love of nature and also that learning is fun. He is rejuvenated by nature, away from screens for a short time, learning and exercising. Not to mention spending quality time together. Nature really is the answer for so many things. Thank you, Nature and I hope some of you will join me today in putting more time in your relationship with nature and less time in your relationship with screens.

Anyone who's opposed to Nick's suggestion, please state so, or I will assume that we can continue the voting with this addendum. Apologies for the test site not being available at the time, it has been fixed now. And yes, it's a starting point. The whole point of this vote is to get _started_ on moving away from something that is utterly dysfunctional, and towards something that works and is simpler to manage. Once the voting is done, assuming no one starts throwing vetoes about, I will start a new thread, calling for ideas and suggestions on how to improve the new site, and as I've stated earlier, I am looking for anyone who would like to contribute to maintaining and improving the site. As it stands, we have Rich, Gavin, Jan from Infrastructure (I hope/think) and myself doing moderation and reviewing the processes, but we'd like more to join. With regards, Daniel.

I had to be the one to actually make the bouncy balls since my daughter isn't quite old enough, but she watched the whole process and asked questions about what I was doing. She also chose the colors for the balls. I would say that a child ages 5+ could do this (with adult supervision).
The first step is to heat the water up in the microwave (or wait for the tap water to turn warm). Then you add the borax and let it dissolve.
In a plastic cup, mix the cornstarch, glue and food coloring. Using a spoon, drop the glue mixture into the water. You can put as much or as little as you want. (I ended up with 2-3 balls of each color, each about an inch across.)
After 10 seconds, use a fork to get the glue mixture out. It will have formed a soft shell, but the inside is still gluey, so squish it in your hands and then put it back in the water.
After 10 seconds, use a fork to get the glue mixture out. It will have formed a soft shell, but the inside is still gluey, so squish it in your hands and then put it back in the water.
Count another 5-10 seconds, depending on the size of the ball and how much squishiness there was. Take it back out and roll it between your hands until a ball forms. It took me a couple of tries to figure out the best way to get the glue to form into a good, round(ish) ball. I found that if the water had cooled off too much, it was harder to get a good ball so working quickly if you want more than one big ball is best. Also, if my hands were too wet, it took longer to form the ball.
*The instructions mentioned using disposable rubber gloves and if I'd had some on hand, I think I would have used them because you're working with glue, which is, by nature, sticky. Instead, I just used my hands and had to wash them off a couple of times during the process.
My daughter was so excited when the bouncy balls were ready for her to play with. She bounced them all over the kitchen, counters and wall. Since they weren't completely round, the direction it bounced wasn't predictable which made it more fun for her.
*Note: When you're ready to put the balls away, store them in a small container or plastic bag. They will flatten a bit, but rolling them in your hands should bring them back into shape.
Homemade Bouncy Ball
- 1/2 cup warm water
- 1 Tbsp Borax
- 1 Tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 Tbsp White Liquid Glue
- Food coloring
- Disposable rubber gloves (optional)
- In a cup, mix the warm water and the borax.
- In another cup, mix the glue, cornstarch and food coloring.
- Pour the glue mixture into the water-borax cup.
- The glue mixture will form a soft shell after 10 seconds. Use a fork to take it out of the water. If it is still sticky, squish it with your hands and put it back in the water.
- Roll the mixture in your hands to make a ball. The more you handle the mixture, the more firm it becomes.
- Play with your new bouncy balls!

Although Mother's Day has come and gone, I thought I would post the cutie cards that we made. The kids made frames from clay, wrapped in tissue paper, and then we put these cupcakes on top as a card.
Turned out super cute. Kids could pick any special lady in their life, I had a different card for each (sister, Grandma, etc).

I bought this tin ship wall hanging forever ago at a thrift store and it just sat in the, "should I put it on Etsy or do I want to keep it for myself pile for quiet awhile. Then sometime last year I went through a little paint by number obsession and decided to paint my tin just so. After that, it went into the "projects I started and need to finish" pile… Seeing a pattern here? Finally, a couple days ago I finally finished it and I'm pretty much in love. I might fill the sky in the background at some point but for now I'm just glad it's out of all those poor little piles I kept putting it in. 😉
If you'd like to try your hand at one of these, here's what you'll need:
- vintage embossed tin wall hanging
- oil paints of your choice
- thin paint brush
- paint by numbers reference
I googled an image of a ship paint by numbers and used this one from Surrender Dorthy on Etsy for reference.
and here is how it turned out, I love the way it pops on the door. (I have to apologize for the grainy pics, here in Ohio we only get sunny days when it is below zero in the winter time. So these will have to do until another sunny day when I can update them.)

How Pre-K Complete uses hands-on learning activities to engage children
Did you know that using hands-on activities is one of the BEST ways for children to learn?!? Research shows that children who are taught using hands-on teaching methods do better in school than those who are not. That is why we use many different hands-on pre-k learning activities that are FUN and engaging for teaching children. Want to know our secret?
Please note this post contains affiliate links. If you choose to purchase through these links, it helps us run our website and continue to provide you amazing resources for your children!
We use all different tactile materials to bring learning to LIFE! We use pom poms, glass jewels, tweezers, whiteboard markers, play dough, clothespins, and more! What child doesn't want to play and learn with these SUPER FUN materials?!
You may still be wondering what the big deal is about hands-on activities when you can just give children a worksheet.
Here is what you need to know about the importance of hands-on pre-k learning:
- Hands-on activities (often called manipulatives) allow children to use their senses while learning. They see, touch, and move real objects to complete tasks. This means that letters, numbers, shapes, colors, and more are brought to life! Children begin to understand the meaning behind what they are doing.
- Children get excited and engaged because they are having FUN!
- They have a longer attention span. This helps them to build knowledge and increase their long-term memory.
- Children will strengthen their fine motor development and control, communication, concentration and dedication to finishing tasks, and problem solving skills.
- Hands-on pre-k learning activities help children to build a lifelong love of learning!
We have developed AMAZING hands-on pre-k learning activities that children LOVE! Our activities focus on teaching children the foundational skills they need to be successful in kindergarten and beyond. Some of the essential skills and concepts we focus on are order, patterns, sequencing, matching, letter and number identification, letter-sound correspondence, and so much more!

Updated, 2:13 p.m. | Torrential rains flooded highways and stranded cars in Queens on Wednesday afternoon.
At the peak of the flooding, around 1 p.m., sections of the Van Wyck and Long Island Expressways and the Grand Central Parkway were closed, the State Transportation Department said. As of 2 p.m., only the Grand Central was closed, eastbound at the Kew Gardens Interchange.
Though firefighters were called to several spots where people were stuck in cars, there were no reported injuries, fire officials said.
The National Weather Service estimated that about two inches of rain fell in central Queens, around Kew Gardens and Jamaica, between about 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. A flash-flood warning issued for Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island has been lifted.

My name is Joy Watson and I will be joining ISM in January of 2015!
As a young child growing up in the church my heart always longed to help others. I can remember my first day attending Sunday school and wanting to help the teacher. As I grew older my passion to help others only became stronger. Once a year a singing group from South Africa visited my grandparents' church and my grandparents housed a few of the children. Talking to these kids brought a smile to my little face, and it was then that my little heart started dreaming of going overseas and helping those in other countries. When I became too old to attend Sunday school I decided then to help the very Sunday school program I was once in. Before my first day as a Sunday school helper was over I was hooked on these little kids. I loved seeing their tiny hearts be filled with joy the same way I was when I was their age, and I knew I wanted to continue doing this.
A few months ago at the overflow youth convention in Kitchener/Waterloo my friend suggested that I check out the Impact School of Missions booth, so I did. After speaking with the representative I knew that this was the program for me! The whole weekend I was struggling with the question of "What next God?" as I was going to graduate high school in a month and had no clue what to do once I was done. By the time I arrived home I was positive that this was the next step God wanted me to take in my life! After what seemed like a very long process, I found out I was accepted to the winter 2015 program in Thailand as well as a 3 month internship at Noah's Ark in the Philippines, and I could not have been happier!
Being able to go on this trip has been an answer to prayer! It has been my hearts longing for a long time that I am able to go overseas and help with missions work and children, and now I get to do so! I hope that this trip helps me to learn more about the wondrous things that God has in store for me, as well I hope that God will use me to touch the lives of the people in Thailand and the Philippines as I know he is going to use them to touch mine!

If you are not keen on current fashion trends and love kind of deconstruction in your clothing (like Yohji Yamamoto and Rey Kawakubo designs) Georgi Shaghashvili S/S-2012 is just for you. Designer suggested oversized silhouettes all in black. Collection was enriched with conceptual looks but still remained wearable. Slogan of the show was - "Don't shoot she is barefoot." Show was closed by Georgian former model and organizer of Tbilisi fashion week - Tamuna Chkheidze. Kind of Georgian top-model from 90's, she is mother of three children but still looks stunning!

I've found an amazing new shopping app, I'm completely obsessed! If any of you have heard or used the website fancy.com you will love this app!
It's exactly like fancy, with the fact you browse loads of items – from clothing to cookery – and it's things that you usually wouldn't find with conventional shopping!
You make a little profile and "like" and "keep" the items you find interesting (hence the name) and then if something was to go in the sale, you get notified! What's not to love!!!?
If anyone has it follow me using the username "emilypells" I'm completely addicted and I've made a little list of items all ready to buy on payday! You can choose the price range, item specifics so you can browse just what you want! I'd highly recommend, tell me what you think!!

Charles and David Koch told their donors in January of this year that they need $889 million of their donors' money to achieve their intended wins at the ballot box in 2016. They have been spending money like this for several years now, and what have they achieved? Obamacare? Dodd-Frank? More federal debt? More job-crushing EPA regulations and Energy Dept. regulations?
And, now, despite all of the money the Koch brothers' donors have given to them, they get to watch Republican Party primary "debates" run by cable news networks with "moderators" setting the agenda through their questions instead of real debates run by the Republican National Committee or the candidates themselves where the candidates get to ask each other questions of their own choosing.
Would a Republican National Committee with a majority of conservative members elect a more conservative chairman who would do away with these silly "not debates?" Of course.
But we don't have an RNC with a majority of conservatives among its 168 members.
How do we conservatives achieve that?
Maybe another strategy ought to be considered.
A New Political Strategy That Would Get Real Political Results
Here is a proposal for the Koch brothers' donors on how they can actually change the Republican Party in a way that would favor conservative candidates in the primary elections and the internal Party officer elections – including all the way "up" to the RNC.
The Greatest Open Secret In Republican Party Politics
The greatest open secret in politics is that the Republican Party apparatus is weakest where it ought to be strongest: at the precinct level.
All RNC member slots are filled. All state committee officer positions are filled. Virtually all county and local district committee officer positions are filled.
But, only about half of the precinct-level positions, which elect, directly, or indirectly, all of these Party officers, are filled. It's been estimated that the Republican Party has about 400,000 of these precinct-level internal voting positions (called precinct committeeman in most states). It's been estimated that about 200,000 of these positions are vacant.
And the RNC does not want any one, especially conservatives who want to "do something" politically, to know this. Have you ever received a letter from the RNC asking you to get involved in your party as a voting member of it on your local committee, where you can cast votes for the Party leadership?
Have you ever wanted to be in a position to cast a vote for who is your county chairman? Your state chairman? Has anyone from the Party told you how you can get into that position? Again, have you ever received a letter from the RNC asking you to become a precinct committeeman where you live?
You haven't, if you get the same letters I receive. The RNC asks for your time, your effort, your money. But they do not ask you to become a voting member of the Party on your local committee. And those letters are proof of that.
It is easy to become a precinct committeeman. It's easy to explain the process and how powerful the position is. See: A Proven Local Method For Conservatives To Take Back the Republican Party and Unite or Die: The "Hobbits" Plan to Take Over the GOP."
It would not cost a lot of money for the Koch brothers to get this word out. The Koch brothers already have almost twenty different issue groups with armies of staff and volunteers, such as Americans for Prosperity, Concerned Women for American Action, Generation Opportunity, Libre Initiative Trust, and Concerned Veterans for America, to name a few.
So let's assume that the Koch brothers' donors decided to devote just $10 million to an effort to recruit each of the 200,000 conservatives needed to bring the Republican precinct-level apparatus to full strength. That would average out to $50 spent to recruit each precinct committeeman. And leave the Koch brothers $879 million for their other efforts.
Or let's say they wanted to be more aggressive and spend twice that sum, or $20 million for recruiting conservatives into the 200,000 currently vacant Republican Party precinct committeeman slots – that would leave them with $869 million to work with. And, in both cases, they would be on their way to changing the Republican Party apparatus, from the voting precincts, to the local district committees, to the county committees, to the state committees and all the way "up" to the RNC and its chairman position, from a half-strength, ideologically-split political party into a full-strength, solidly-conservative, get-out-the-vote political powerhouse.
The Koch brothers and their donors would have a new asset: The Republican Party itself. Instead of trying to do an end run around the Republican Party, they'd BE the Party.
Perhaps some other group of conservatives will beat them to the punch.
Thank you.

He has been a Republican Party precinct committeeman since 2007 and was a co-winner of the Conservative HQ Liberty Prize.

Ninth Grade Travel
New York Trip
The ninth graders complete their blocks in History through Art with a week of museums, music and theatre. Accompanied by school directors and the eleventh graders, they negotiate 'The City' by subway, sample ethnic cuisine, and spend their days in the Met, the Frick, MOMA and other galleries. The academic focus of the trip is immersion in the essence of the subject they've already learned about at distance, and their experience of the art is deepened by this prolonged and personal contact. Evenings are filled with Broadway plays and the Metropolitan Opera. Afterward, students are asked to articulate their reactions to the theatre they've seen; through their participation these discussions, ninth graders begin to develop critical thinking skills.
I love seeing variety, diversity. On this trip I was awakened to new possibilities – in art, in self-expression, and in ways of living.'

Dear Friend,
I hope you are enjoying your Labor Day!
In case you missed it, newspapers all around the state are recognizing what I have been saying for months. Our state is headed in the wrong direction. We need new leadership who will improve our business climate to encourage job creation, and we must improve our schools to give our kids a first-class education.
The Charleston Daily Mail covers the speech of a business leader at the West Virginia Chambers' Business Summit. The Daily Mail writes that the company has three message for state leaders, "Lower our taxes; break down some of the barriers, such as a fairer legal environment...and establish better skilled training programs."
I agree! As governor, I will make West Virginia a place for business, and job creation will be one of my top priorities. Read the full article here.
Also in the news this weekend, The (Wheeling) Intelligencer has a great editorial on our education system. In the editorial, The Intelligencer writes, "Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and legislators have had much of the summer to review the suggestions (of the education audit) and think about them...Now is the time to move forward, to insist on public schools that can compete with any in the nation. We owe nothing less to our children and grandchildren."
I have spoken numerous times about the education audit and the need to reform our education system. If we are going to become a state that's open for business and keep our talent, our children and our grandchildren, here in West Virginia, then we must fix our schools!
We have an important task this election. Will we continue the wrong way, or will we work to improve our state? That is the choice voters will make in November. Please continue to spread the word about our campaign for a Brighter Future for West Virginia. We can't do this without you. Thank you for your continued support!

What has happened to Formula One? Once upon a time it used to be filled with all sorts of volatile personalities who, in between two-week pleasure binges at the Tokyo Hilton and dyeing their hair the latest shade of anti-corporate, occasionally turned up at some exotic location to drive a racing car at breakneck speed.
Bugger the results, just watching and reading about the antics of antiheroes such as James Hunt, Nelson Piquet and Jacques Villeneuve was reason enough to spend every other Sunday glued to our television sets. But not anymore. Thanks to a tsunami of professionalism, members of the world's most elite motorsport club have basically transformed into the fastest PR officers our planet has ever known.
Conformity has taken the place of character and now Nico Rosberg and his lifeless ilk do nothing but pander to their billion-dollar sponsors. It's like the greatest driver never to win the World Championship, Sir Stirling Moss, says: "In my day, the drivers used to go out and chase girls after a race. These days, they thank Vodafone."
It's a similar story when it comes to their charges. For not only are Formula One's latest cars more or less death-proof, the names slapped across their jet-like bodies have become annoyingly clean-living and unsexy. In fact if it weren't for Red Bull, there'd be nothing but banking, semiconductor and telecom logos.
It never used to be like this, mind. Back in the day before nanny states and anti-smoking lobbies existed, Formula One was the most dangerous sport in existence. It was a vibrant, edgy and violent arena in which to play, and consequently attracted brands that tended towards a similar mindset. From cigarettes and sex to bar-loads of booze, here are just a few of the risqué labels and liveries that the sport would eventually go on to leave behind.
The Car: Lotus 49
The Brand: Golf Leaf
The Buzz:
The year was 1968 and Lotus, one of the most successful British outfits ever to race within the realms of Formula One, was in dire need of money. It just so happened that Gold Leaf cigarettes were also looking to grow their publicity, so a deal was hatched between the two and Colin Chapman's racing cars were soon lining up on the Monaco starting grid wearing the firm's distinctive red, cream and gold livery. The first major sponsorship deal ever to rock the annals of Formula One history, this corporate handshake basically tarred the way for future tobacco brands such as Marlboro, Mild Seven, West and B&H.
The Car: EuroBrun ER189
The Brand: Jägermeister
The Buzz:
Probably one of the most useless constructors to ever find their way onto an official Formula One entry list, EuroBrun were the pit lane laughing stock from 1988 to 1990. Already bad in their debut season, they quickly joined the ranks of the diabolical when they failed to qualify for even one race in 1989. Be this as it may, the team somehow managed to attract the interests of shooter kings Jägermeister. Being emblazoned in the booze brand's bright orange livery may have helped EuroBrun look the business, but they still failed to score a single championship point in their embarrassingly short F1 career.
Yep, for the first time ever, Germany's most famous digestif failed to get the party started.
The Car: Hesketh 308D
The Brand: Penthouse & Rizla
The Buzz:
There's never been a Formula One team more outlandish than the now defunct Hesketh Racing. Founded in 1972 by an eccentric 21-year-old lord of the same name, this ragtag group of automotive rule-breakers gained infamy by attracting more grid girls than mechanics, and consuming more champagne than their racing cars did petrol. Refusing to "sell out" to the conventions of corporate sponsorship, Hesketh funded the team privately until 1976. After losing interest, his lordship left the team to his partner, who set about procuring money from girly magazine Penthouse, and "cigarette" rolling-paper giant, Rizla. With sponsorship, Formula One's bad boys kept on raising eyebrows until 1978.
The Car: Surtees TS19
The Brand: Durex
The Buzz:
Just in case you don't know, John Surtees is the only man to have ever won World Championships on both four and two wheels. A talented driver from the Golden Age of motorsport, he started his own Formula One team — Surtees Racing — in 1970. Truth be told it wasn't very successful and, fielding second-rate machinery on a shoestring budget, the team failed to finish within the top five constructors before bowing out at the end of 1978. Fortunately the outfit did enjoy some time in the media sun after they got a scandalous sponsorship deal from condom manufacturer Durex. In fact, this caused such a public furore that the BBC withdrew their TV cameras from all pre-season, non-championship British races in 1976.
The Car: Brabham BT44B
The Brand: Martini & Rossi
The Buzz:
When it comes to the world of hard liquor, few names are more synonymous with motor racing than Martini & Rossi. Though renowned for their vermouth, this Italian distillery created a massive stir on the international motorsport scene by sponsoring some of the biggest names in rally, sports car and Formula One. The brand's shining moment in the latter came during the 1975 season when their blue and red livery licked the white bodywork of Bernie Ecclestone's Brabham team. Adorning the BT44B, designed by South African Gordon Murray, death-cheating drivers such as Carlos Reutemann and Carlos Pace drove their helmets off to put the team second in the constructor's championship. – Thomas Falkiner

I am relying on you for your help!
I am not sure if you remember the 80's hit series "highway to heaven". In season 1, episode 5 "songs of the wild west", there are two songs being sung be those two women playing singers.
I really like to ad those to my repertoire but I can not make out the titles nor who sung them in real life.
If anybody out there knows what I am talking about and can help me any further, please do mail me.
Thank you very much for your help - Claudia

First post of the New Year! And I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing with this post. I didn't make a New Year's resolution, and I'm not sure I ever have, but I took the leap and joined Instagram. I also went out on a limb and put up a profile picture on Pinterest. I was born into the era of social media and all that jazz, but I seem to have lost my edge when my biological clock hit 30. I don't get hash tagging or selfies, have no desire to ever enter the world of Twitter or whatever Snapchat is, and I still suck at blogging (which I hear is out of style anyway). But, I still take pictures. Some things don't change. My trade may have been edged out thanks to the quality of iPhone cameras, but while I have acquired an iPhone in the past few months and love it dearly, nothing compares to the feel of a real camera every now and then. Maybe I had a creative bug that bit me. Or maybe I was bored. Or maybe I was manic. But, I wanted to make some art photos to hang with some awesome pictures one of my best friends took of the hubby and me at our new house (Surprise! We moved, and that might have been a contributing factor to not posting much the last six months). I'm not sure these are quite "it", but I like them enough to make them the first blog post of 2015.
This is a project I was working on for our master bedroom. I wanted something organic, yet fantasy-like. These are the closest I can get to recreating nebulae without a telescope. I used fingernail polish, water, and some old cloud photos. One photo has the Taurus constellation, because my hubby is a Taurus, and another is Virgo, aka me.
and this one is Virgo.

What to do to make up for being an awful blogger: overcompensate. I'm not even that crazy about these pictures, but I am playing around with textures and black and white.

I am a terrible blogger. I go months and months without posting updates. Or worse, I'll go months without taking any decent blogworthy photos. These are my first pictures of 2014. I got some new lights for Christmas, and after some epic failures, this is what I ended up with. I'm kind of excited about them. :-)
Niagara Falls
Posted by Margot | | Posted on 2:48 PM
On our way home, we made a couple hour detour to Niagara Falls. I went Thanksgiving Day when I was sixteen, ice was on everything, and it was spectacular. But, I had never been in the spring when there was significantly more water, and John had never been at all. Twelve years ago, I was still using film, and all the night photos I took of the colored falls did not turn out in the slightest, so I was thrilled to get another opportunity. The Canada side has an even better view, but it turns out one must have a passport to get to Canada now. Even though we did not get to cross the border, New York's view was majestic.

Lamberto, Lamberto, Lamberto by Gianni Rodari, translated by Antony Shugaar
This strange novel is the story of a rich Baron, named Lamberto of course, who discovers an ancient secret: if his name is spoken continuously his aging will stop and even reverse. He hires a group of people to live up in his attic and recite his name, so that he will return to a healthy, younger self. Problems arise as a greedy nephew and some bandits try to get their hands on his vast wealth. This modern fairy tale was quite fun to read, with zany illustrations and a less than comfortable (though to my mind, perfect) ending. Although I greatly enjoyed this book, I am not sure that it would appeal to my students. There is a great deal of Italian geography mentioned in the book, but mostly in lists rather than being described. Another problem I had in reading it was the detached manner that it dealt with some of the bandit's actions. Al in all, I think this book would be great for someone looking for something new or unique to read, but I'm not sure it's really a book that will have appeal to elementary students. There is some marketing that compares it to The Little Prince. I was very excited when I read that comparison, but honestly it's nothing like the innocence and depth of that great work of fiction. Read if you'd like a zany take on humanity, otherwise, skip this one. This review is based on a publisher supplied electronic copy.
Until next time, bon voyage and happy reading.

Grandmas Deliver Sausages in Tiny Houses
If you saw three little houses screaming down the Dan Ryan expressway in Chicago on Sunday, being pulled by pickup trucks, with real Italian grandmas on board, ready to deliver sausages—well, that was a Johnsonville ad campaign.
The sausage maker teamed up with Uber for the "Sausage Nonnas" stunt, which featured the Italian grandmas—known as "nonnas"—delivering free homemade sausage meals to Chicagoans who requested delivery through the Uber app. Users could select a "Nonnas" option on the Uber home screen and track their delivery as the tiny house icon neared.
