My One Word: Connected: Communicating effectively
In my last post, I began a series focused on My One Word: Connected. I used the National PTA Standards for Family School Partnerships as a framework. Today, I continue the discussion, looking more closely at communicating effectively.
At one time, when we thought of "communicating effectively" with parents, that meant sending out a beginning of the year letter, greeting parents at parent teacher conferences, and sending out a monthly newsletter. To be sure, all of these efforts have merit, but if we truly have in interested in becoming connected to our families and communities, we have to do different and we have to do more.
Different can mean simply changing the format for communication. My friend Jay Posick introduced me to the mobile newsletter Smore, and it has fundamentally changed the way we can reach out to our families. Smore allows schools to create a mobile newsletter that constituents can view on phone, tablets, and computers.
For those parents without the ability to access the newsletter, we can print it our for them. Those parents who can access our Smore can watch videos of student performances, "peek" into the school by viewing pictures and reading write-ups about activities and field trips. Smore also gives school leaders metrics so they can analyze the reach of their communication and see which newsletters had the most impact with parents and the community.
Facebook has emerged as important aspect of our communication efforts. I wrote about the "rebirth" of our Facebook page back in February of 2015; at the time, we had few people who even knew CMS had a Facebook page. As of today, we have 351 "Likes," and parents and extended families look to Facebook as the best option to follow their children and know what is happening at the middle school.
Once again, metrics allow us to know from where our readers hail, and we can even tell which posts have the most reach, engagement, and impact [Hint: If you want to see a spike in engagement, post video of your students doing AWESOME in the classroom]. I truly believe this is a case of "If you build it, they will come."
We also use tools like the mobile app we built using the awesome como.com, and School Messenger. Lately, though, we have started to work even more closely with families to shape our communication avenues.
Many of our families lack a computer, and many also do not have internet or wifi at home, but they do have smart phones with data plans. We have had parents communicate to us that they would prefer text messages to phone calls or emails, so we have begun developing PD to help our staff utilize Remind as another way to connect with parents. It would be difficult to say we communicate effectively if we did not provide communication in the format they request.
I have a final thought about communicating effectively. While all of these tech tools provide excellent options to communicate with parents, families, and the community, they cannot replace good old fashioned face-to-face conversations in many cases. In creating an app or establishing a social presence, our goal remains to have parents and the community view Clintonville Middle School as "their" school. Ultimately, we hope these different ways of connecting with our parents and families welcomes them into the building and deepens our conversations about how we can best serve them and meet the needs of their child. I know that many who know me might find it strange that I would advocate for non-techy communication, but sometimes it is the best way to form real partnerships with the families we serve.
What forms of communication do you use with your school community? How effective are are the tools, traditional or otherwise, that you use to communicate? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
My One Word: Connected: Welcoming All Families
As a teacher, I thought I knew the value of good relationships with parents. In truth, though, I focused on relationships with students; if possible, I tried to make sure parents understood I had their child's best interests in mind.
As a principal, I have learned the true value of family engagement. When I interviewed for my position, I talked a lot about the importance of bringing in families and helping them see the school as their school. I held that as a core value, but in reality, I never had to put it into practice.
The National PTA shares information about Family-School Partnerships. The PTA even shares National Standards for Family-School Partnerships:
- Welcoming all families into the school community
- Communicating effectively
- Speaking up for every child
- Sharing power
Over the last year and a half, I have learned what those standards look like in practice. In August of 2014, Clintonville Middle School had a negative image reflective of its toxic culture. From day one, we worked to make the middle school a place that welcomes all families into the school community. We worked with staff and a fledgling PTO to spread the word that the middle school was safe for students, and families started to ask about enrolling their students at CMS. Before we knew it, private school students started walking through our doors on a regular basis – and many of them stayed.
Welcoming all families also included working with students and families who had not had positive experiences at the middle school. Some of that negative experience stemmed from the fact that the middle school originally served as the high school, and some of that negative happened inside that walls of the middle school.
My principal, Scott Werfal, and I greet families at the door and always want to know "How can we help you?" It seems simple, but an office design focused not on the adults in the office but on customer service for students and parents has made a world of difference. The change seems subtle, but parents now have room when we ask them to wait, and the new flow in the office allows us to have a friendly face greet all comers. Students, parents, subs, and community members have all commented on how friendly the school and particularly the office feel. We are proud that people don't automatically look at the building or the office with distaste and disdain.
I strongly recommend that educators read Beyond the Bake Sale. You will start to see the importance of trying to form true school-community and school-home partnerships. Joining Twitter chats will also afford you the opportunity to collaborate with people who have already made inroads to become more connected with families. You may even develop your own cohort who will go through the process with you.
What do you think? What experience have you had with trying to cultivate positive connectedness with home?
My One Word For 2016: Connected
I cannot even remember my One Word from 2015. I know I shared it with my Varsity PTCamp Voxer group, but it says a lot about my commitment to my word that I cannot even recall what I chose.
I want to commit this year. I want to go beyond "dabbling," so instead of just uttering my word to my PLN, I created a graphic and chose to write a post.
When most people hear the word "connected" coming from a principal, they probably think about Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach and Lani Ritter Hall's The Connected Educator. And certainly, educators using Twitter and other social media tools to reach out to the broader world has much merit. I try to get my staff connected all of the time.
But if our definition of "connected" stops at the internet wall, we do not give enough credit to the power of being "connected."
In the summer of 2014, I met a group of people who have become some of my nearest and dearest friends. While I have only met one of the face-to-face, I talk to all of them nearly every day. We began our journey together reading Beyond The Bake Sale, and we talked about ways to improve our efforts at Family and Community Engagement. Once we all realized how diverse, yet common, our experiences were, our conversations quickly moved beyond just how to improve family engagement.
Jay Posick, a principal from Merton, WI has not missed a day of running in more than 10,000 days. Back when our group first met, though, Jay was approaching the 10,000 day milestone and Geniene Delahunty, our "cruise director," planned a special day for Jay. She orchestrated a project where many members of our group "ran" a copy of Beyond The Bake Sale from Australia to Merton, and Geniene delivered it to Jay in a special ceremony that Jay's school and district kept secret from him. When I tell people about that event, they just stare, unbelieving.
After all, who drives over six hours to deliver a book and a hug to someone they have never met? When you become "connected," you'll understand what kind of person does that. Our group connected with more than just digital tools. We care about each other and we want to help each other succeed. We understand the importance of relationships to the personal and professional well-being of everyone. Most of all, we remember what is was like before we connected, and we never want to go back there again.
This year, my "One Word" blog posts will talk about a number of different ways I strive to stay connected. From digital to analog to face-to-face, I hope I find ways to become more connected to my family and friends, my school, my peers, and my PLN. I have committed to these connections, and thanks to a nudge from Don Wettrick, I have committed to writing about this year's journey.
I hope to become more connected to those of you I see in my Twitter feed. If we have never met in person, I hope to change that.
Here's hoping that we connect…and stay connected.

I'm interested in neurally inspired information processing.
For my dissertation I developed several algorithms for massively parallel, event-based, electronic hardware. A hallmark of algorithms well suited to this computing style seems to be their decomposition into nearly independent sub-parts that exchange only sparse information with each other. Applications include artificial neural network algorithms and CSP solvers.

Top Entrepreneurs 2009
Co-founder: Barry Silbert
When Barry Silbert was an investment banker struggling to sell off pieces of a bankrupt Enron Corp. six years ago, he kept asking himself the same question: "Wouldn't it make sense if there was an organized marketplace, like eBay, where illiquid assets could be bought and sold?"
Six years later, the answer is a resounding "yes."
Proof of the pudding is a wildly successful outfit called SecondMarket that Mr. Silbert co-founded in 2004. Today it boasts 3,000 registered participants, who to date have traded $750 million worth of assets in a total of 2,000 transactions on the online market. Last year the company's revenues more than tripled. It collects a fee of 2% of the value of the trade from both sides.
Mr. Silbert traces his prowess trading illiquid assets—goods that are hard to price, much less sell—all the way back to his childhood.
"I was always entrepreneurial, but especially so after my father died when I was 10," he says. "Back then I set up forums for trading baseball cards, which are essentially illiquid assets."
He and his partner, the late Brad Monks, spent a year developing SecondMarket's technology after raising $350,000 from angel investors. But by the time they went live in the summer of 2005, they had done enough old-fashioned canvassing among big investors and Wall Street figures—including the co-chief executive of Houlihan Lokey, the investment bank where Mr. Silbert worked—to give the venture instant buzz.
"SecondMarket understood early on that illiquid assets don't sell themselves," said David Weild IV, a former vice chairman of Nasdaq and a senior consultant to SecondMarket.
Mr. Silbert says SecondMarket works because it combines whiz-bang technology with good old human interaction. In addition to offering users state-of-the-art trading software, the company has the bulk of its 100 staffers—up from just seven in 2006—working directly with users to answer any questions they may have. Company officials also spread the word by speaking at conferences and networking.
Two years ago, Mr. Silbert raised $3.8 million from venture capital firm FirstMark Capital in return for a 25% stake.
"We never tapped into the money but knowing it was there for a rainy day gave me the confidence to scale up," says Mr. Silbert.
He has watched his pennies since the early days, when the company was based in his Union Square living room and client meetings were held at a nearby Starbucks.
With the financial crisis have come immense growth opportunities, as investors seek to unload hundreds of billions of dollars worth of illiquid assets. To seize his opportunity, Mr. Silbert added five more online marketplaces that banks can use as an auction block for toxic assets ranging from mortgage-backed securities to collateralized debt obligations. With business booming, he moved the company in the fall to its first fancy address, the landmark Standard Oil building on lower Broadway.
"Trillions of dollars of assets that were once liquid have turned illiquid during the financial meltdown," says Mr. Silbert.

|"In my case I operate by the philosophy that it's critical to grow a company within its means. In New York City, real estate is a significant barrier. My first office was the living room couch in my apartment. I rented an office when I could justify it economically. And rather than lease space in a Class A building, I took a cost-efficient, no-frills office two blocks from Wall Street. When we had to meet clients, we suggested Starbucks because our office didn't have conference space. It was only recently, in order to accommodate a staff of 100, that we moved to 26 Broadway, the landmark Standard Oil Building."
|"I created the Annual Cure Carcinoid Golf Tournament and charity auction in memory of Brad Monks, my dear friend and first business partner at Second Market, who died two years ago at age 40. We also have an art outreach program benefiting schools in lower Manhattan. Art students display paintings for sale on our floor, and the proceeds go to the school's art program. SecondMarket will be one of the first employers under JumpStart NYC, a job training and placement pilot program for laid-off financial sector workers."

Conventional eBike motors sit low in the frame and run the risk of being damaged by strikes to the underside of your bike. in 2012 Haibike introduced the SkidPlate, a simple protective element that effectively protects the motor.
The centerpiece of the frame: the motor interface. At this connection point many important functions come together: the engine mount, swing arm, and shock mounts, and the battery and downtube connection. The more stable the interface is, the more stable the entire frame is.
The motor is the technological core and defining characteristic of an eBike. Thanks to Haibike's Gravity Casting motor interfaces, they can integrate the motor in a compact manner without separate mounting plates. This concept reduces the space required to mount the motor and decreases the visual volume of the engine.
The Yamaha PW unit is proven to be a powerful and reliable motor. Thanks to its Zero-Cadence system, it supports the rider from the first revolution of the crank. As one of the few motors available allowing a dual chainring, the Yamaha system is able to offer a broad range of gears providing more gear options out on the trails. Given its high maximum torque of up to 80Nm, its compact size, and its low noise, the Yamaha PW is one of the best eBike systems for sporty use.
The Yamaha LED display is a compact yet robust display and remote unit. Despite its small size, it provides the rider with all essential information. Positioned on the left of the handlebars, the remote is easily accessible. Information available includes: the selection and display of the support levels (Off, Eco+, Eco, Standard, High), the current speed, the battery charge level, and the remaining range. The display also allows you to switch on and off of the main light.

The Kitchen
Anyone who has visited The Regency Club can see how busy the kitchen is through the open plan setting. A view of the kitchen allows you to see the chefs cooking at the grills, fryers, clay tandoor where our fresh tandoori naan are made. The dedicated kitchen team serve an astonishing 600 people on a Sunday and in the duration of a year, 32,000 portions of Garlic Mogo were cooked and served, which is one of The Regency Clubs favourite dishes. This kitchen, you could say is magical especially with all the daily kitchen maintenance, food preparation and cooking that happens in this part of The Regency Club. The kitchen is the heart of The Regency Club, and with our passionate team with the love of good food, it is hard to find a kitchen that works well all around.
The Kitchen Team
In the kitchen there are a total of 14 staff, 8 of which are chefs with no hierarchy of executive or junior roles. With a busy kitchen at The Regency Club, skills can be applied all around to manage the efficiency of the kitchen. To become a chef at The Regency Club, requires an individual to have no professional training or qualifications in cooking and catering. As none of the chefs had any background in working in any kitchen, The Regency Club has put their heart into ensuring that all the dishes on their menu can be cooked a hundred times by different chefs with the same taste and texture of each dish. No chef is where he is without starting off by washing dishes when they first start to work at The Regency Club and each individual will work their way up to become an experienced member of the kitchen staff. Each member of the kitchen team absorbs the daily running of the kitchen, learning the basics of The Regency Club kitchen etiquette and smelling the aromas of the spices cooking over the grills. Taste is important to The Regency Club and our kitchen staffs' palates are accustomed to the food that our guests love to eat and for us it is important to maintain the standard of the freshly cooked food and that our team knows the flavours of the dishes that we have on our menu. From this comes innovation and ideas of how we can develop our specials menu and as long as we have The Regency Clubs stamp of approval you may see something different on our specials menu the next time you visit.

Waze Zooms Past 7 Million Drivers, Brings in New Growth Funding From Horizons Ventures & KPCB
Oct 18, 2011, 09:00 ET
PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Waze, the leading social traffic and navigation community, announced today an additional round of funding of $30 million. Investing in the new round are Horizons Ventures Hong Kong, managing the private venture investments of Mr. Li Ka Shing in the technology sector, and the Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers (KPCB) Digital Growth Fund and iFund. The funding will be used to support the app's rapidly growing user base of over 7 million drivers and launch its traffic-reporting platform in China.
New to the Team
Waze is proud to announce new members to its board -- John Malloy, Managing Partner of Blue Run Ventures and Jason Wong of Horizon Ventures. In addition, Mary Meeker, partner at KPCB, has also joined the team as a strategic advisor and board observer alongside Josh Silverman, President of American Express US Consumer division and former CEO of Skype.
"Since our last round in December, Waze has seen phenomenal growth around the world. Expanding to China, the world's fastest growing automotive and smartphone market, is an obvious next move for us," said Noam Bardin, CEO of Waze. "I would also like to welcome our new board members and advisors. We look forward to further supporting our driving community-- together we can outsmart traffic."
"With its market leading crowd-sourced, real-time navigation application, Waze has reached critical mass in markets ranging from its home country (Israel) to Italy, Ecuador and France and parts of America (including Los Angeles). We are excited about Waze's opportunity to continue to grow its user base around the world while providing a fast, easy, informative and fun driving application that helps consumers save time and fuel," said Mary Meeker, KPCB Partner.
7 Million Drivers
On the heels of the launch of its latest 3.0 version, Waze is announcing its 7 million-driver milestone. It is by the collaborative strength of the Waze community that Waze is able to operate entirely on crowdsourced data-- from driver-created maps, to citizen traffic reports, to community-curated points of interest. The result is a completely social navigation experience in which every driver is contributing to a traffic-free world, simply by driving with the app open.
Growing at the Speed of Social
In addition to its traditional markets in the US, France, Italy, and Israel, Waze has seen accelerated growth in new markets such as Spain, Malaysia, Mexico, and Brazil.
Traffic is a universal headache felt around the world, but the message of community-conscious driving remains the same. Waze has used its data to visualize traffic in several of its larger markets:
Tel Aviv: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOHIWsK-Mf0
Paris: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NxmTVicWTc
Rome: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eONNCDxUJaU
Los Angeles: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=72-blGAuh6s
Waze is available for free the Apple AppStore & Android Marketplace or at http://m.waze.com.
About Waze
Waze is a social traffic & navigation app based on the world's largest community of drivers sharing real time road info and contributing to the "common good" out there on the road. By simply driving around with Waze open users passively contribute traffic and other road data. Users can take a more active role by sharing road reports on accidents, police traps, or any other hazards along the way, helping to give other users in the area a 'heads-up' about what's to come– and because it's 100% user-generated, the more people who use Waze, the better (and more fun) it gets!

|We tested 4 people who claimed to have significantly better than ordinary face recognition ability. Exceptional ability was confirmed in each case. On two very different tests of face recognition, all 4 experimental subjects performed beyond the range of control subject performance. They also scored significantly better than average on a perceptual discrimination test with faces. This effect was larger with upright than with inverted faces, and the 4 subjects showed a larger "inversion effect" than did control subjects, who in turn showed a larger inversion effect than did developmental prosopagnosics. This result indicates an association between face recognition ability and the magnitude of the inversion effect. Overall, these "super-recognizers" are about as good at face recognition and perception as developmental prosopagnosics are bad. Our findings demonstrate the existence of people with exceptionally good face recognition ability and show that the range of face recognition and face perception ability is wider than has been previously acknowledged.

I love dioramas and every time I have the opportunity to visit a museum or an exposition featuring dioramas, I don't hesitate.
I saw a lot of great Japanese dioramas in the large museums, but I also had the chance to discover a very interesting one in the Tepco Asakusakan, a small and nice museum from Asakusa (yes, it's that Tepco, the electricity company).
The diorama reproduces an area from Asakusa, as it was at the end of the Meiji period. At that epoch, Tōkyō Electric Railway (Tōden) started operating (in 1904) two streetcar lines passing through Asakusa, the Kuramae Line between Kaminarimon and Asakusabashi and the Muromachi Line between Asakusabashi and Marunouchi-Itchōme (both were closed in 1971). Here's what the streetcar looked like at that time:

He Loves Me Not thrives on Polytrack
ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, Ill. - Dallas Stewart does not have a string of horses based at Arlington Park this summer - which is too bad for a 4-year-old gelding named He Loves Me Not.
That's because He Loves Me Not, by all appearances, loves Polytrack, and to get what he loves, He Loves Me Not will ship in from Stewart's Churchill Downs base for the featured ninth race on Friday at Arlington.
He Loves Me Not was one of 10 horses entered in a second-level allowance race carded for seven furlongs on Polytrack, and he faces a familiar foe on Friday. That would be Mighty Rule, who finished a head in front of He Loves Me Not when the two squared off here on May 13.
Since then, He Loves Me Not has finished third and fourth in two blazingly fast sprints run over the Churchill Downs dirt, but dirt is not what He Loves Me Not does best. On fast tracks He Loves Me Not has gone 0 for 9, his lone dirt win having come on off going. But on Polytrack, He Loves Me Not has won 3 of 4 starts, his lone loss the third behind Mighty Rule at Arlington. He won twice at Keeneland, once at Turfway, and Friday's seven-furlong distance should suit He Loves Me Not, who does his best running late in his races.
On paper, the distance would appear to be a question for Mighty Rule, a 4-year-old Illinois-bred who has yet to race beyond six furlongs.
"I kind of think he will run farther," said trainer Christine Janks. "I think he just paces himself, but I could be wrong."
Mighty Rule actually won a race at the class level on May 13, and qualified to run back in second-level allowance races because his prior wins had come in statebred-restricted competition. Since the victory, Mighty Rule was third in a turf sprint run over yielding ground, and second in a pair of six-furlong Polytrack dashes.
Also deserving of attention is Ultimate Goal, who hasn't raced since he finished second to his stablemate High Cotton in the 2006 Sir Barton Stakes, held some 15 months ago at Pimlico. Trained by Todd Pletcher, Ultimate Goal impressively won a one-turn mile at Gulfstream Park in his second start, so although he may eventually be more a route horse than a sprinter, Friday's seven-furlong trip might be within his scope.

We're please to share the great news that one of our top instructors Tom Renner (6th Dan) has produced "The Chemist" which has won no less than 7 awards last weekend in LA!
"There is always two sides to every everything.yin and yang,darkness and light,good films and bad. The Chemist is bad. Badass that is. Or The Chemist is smoldering with duplicity,intrigue and action to die for. Director Art Camacho, Executive producer Tom Renner and cinematographer Carmen Cabana hit the target "center mass" with this one."
Small Circle Jujitsu is a precise and practical system that I often taught to my soldiers. What I like most about Small Circle is speed; soldiers in combat situations need to resolve an encounter quickly and Small Circle Jujitsu training fits that need.

Swansea City warn Everton they won't be 'bullied' over Gylfi Sigurdsson
Sigurdsson withdrew from manager Paul Clement's squad just two hours before it was due to depart for Philadelphia yesterday morning, claiming he was not in the "right frame of mind" to participate. You'd rather not be in a situation where it drags through all of July and even when the season has started. "I have made it very clear I want him to stay here", Clement told BBC Sport .

What if 'Happily Ever After' started with the word '...mostly'?
Would you still strive for the 'somewhere at the end of the rainbow' with the same gumption if you knew the pot of gold at the end had lumps of coal in it as well? When all your wildest dreams come true, will you have the time to think about being low on milk? Or have to worry about electricity prices? Or the car breaking down? Or rain ruining your picnic?
Yes... Times like these will still weigh on our minds and make us feel powerless to try and stop losing control of any given situation. I'm sure it wouldn't matter if you had all the money/family/success in the world,
You WILL still cry on occasions, get furious, be frustrated, and feel you self worth dwindle.... but its in the down times that our will keep us moving. Moving forward, moving sideways, getting up from the couch, it doesn't really matter, as long as we're moving.
I know I feel motionless and numb when I hit rock bottom, and the s#it can pile up fast. I have no advice on how to deal with it when it hits the fan, but I do know I have to try to concentrate on what exactly keeps me moving. My family and the things I love, and why I cherish it all. Of course we can be happy with our accomplishments and relish in our successes, but only when we truly accept that any failures and disappointments in our lives are as much of a constant as the good things, only then will we start to be content. It takes hard work to be happy.
I have had people say to me lately "You're so lucky! Doing what you love every day" and yes, believe me when I say, I am the last one to forget that fact, but what happens when you have days when you don't absolutely adore doing what you love? What happens on a bad day in paradise?
Do you question your dreams?
Do you doubt your expectations on what you really want?
Yes! Why? Because you want to keep moving, you want to keep dreaming and hoping it will get better. Where was that disclaimer in the manual on life? Live your dreams! Happily/mostly or occasionally ever after.
Dont get me wrong, I want the fairytale, but the more I think about it, while trying not to pout my lips and stomp my foot, I realise I am loving the journey even more than the destination. Sometimes I have to tell myself that I AM enjoying it, even if I have to stop and get off at certain train stations to change trains, or go back for my bags.
Expectations are our worst enemies, but dreams and aspirations are the fillings in our pie, the chocolate peanuts in our cookies (yes Dave and Michelle Garber... That was a blatant hint for some of your home made goodness) The cream for our cake, the custard in our square... Okay, stop drooling, you get the idea... Our lives WOULD still exist if we didn't have them, true, albeit much more boring without them there to help drive us forward.
So, for now, I will keep my eyes on the horizon... For my feet already know how to walk straight, and if I do fall down, I will try to keep my chin up, to avoid it scraping on the ground.

Ratings for Dr. Prameela D. Baddigam
I feel a whole lot better m. wiley getting close to almost feeling normal
She helped me get well after I had seen several other doctors that did not help me get well. I was very sick for a long time till she put me on the right medicine . I thank her and still see her till this day. She will work with you if you don't like your medicine.
I think Dr. bedding am is a very nice lady. She is helpful, and listens to me. I felt she treated me with respect, not talking down to me at all.
She is HEARTLESS/CARELESS SHE SHOULD NOT BE IN THIS FIELD...she tells you one thing then she does not follow with what she says :( and when requested to talk to she didnt want to talk to our family.
I was referred to Dr. Baddigam from St. John Hospital during a very stressful time of my life. I was given limited, if any, theraputic counseling and instead she diagnosed me with a psychiatric disorder and proceeded to prescribe antipsychotic medications that made it nearly impossible for me to function. When I indicated the medications were not improving my "condition", she increased my dosage and sent me on my way. The events that occurred in the next few months put my family in complete turmoil, nearly cost me my career and ultimately could have ended my life. Diagnosing a person and heavily medicating them based on an isolated incident and with no knowledge of their medical history or current stressors is beyond irresponsible. Please do not visit this physician.
My opinion-this doctor is totally irresponsible & should have her license revoked. Her husband Basivi is no better. After experiencing extreme sleep deprivation for over 1 week, due to extreme stress in my life, I sought medical attention. She immediately placed me on many antipsychotic meds. The meds made my condition worse & gave me severe heart pains. EKG & ECG tests proved there was a problem & documented evidence of one med showed warnings of fatal heart arrythmias were common. This doctor involuntarily admitted me to a mental ward after I complained about the meds she placed me on were causing severe heart problems. I petitioned the court and was released. My personal & professional life were impeccable prior to her misdiagnosis. Now I have to live with this stigma & have issues getting health insurance coverage. Two yrs past her wrong diagnosis & I am on one antidepressant. Since getting off her prescribed meds, I have had no reoccurring heart, sleep or mental issues.
Dr.Prameela Baddigam specializes in Adult and Geriatric Psychiatry. She is very friendly, knowledgeable, caring, and helpful.

Document Details
Published Document
In compliance with the requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for opportunity for public comment on proposed data collection projects, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) will publish periodic summaries of proposed projects. To request more information on the proposed projects or to obtain a copy of the data collection plans and instruments, call 404-639-5960 and send comments to Maryam I. Daneshvar, CDC Reports Clearance Officer, 1600 Clifton Road, MS-D74, Atlanta, GA 30333 or send an e-mail to email@example.com.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. Written comments should be received within 60 days of this notice.
Proposed Project
National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS)—(OMB Number 0920-0728 exp. 2/28/2011)—Extension—Office of the Director (OD), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is responsible for the dissemination of nationally notifiable disease information and for monitoring and reporting the impact of epidemic influenza on mortality, Public Health Services Act (42 U.S.C. 241). In April 1984, CDC Epidemiology Program Office (EPO) in cooperation with the Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) and epidemiologists in six states began a pilot project, the Epidemiologic Surveillance Project (ESP). The ESP was designed to demonstrate the efficiency and effectiveness of the computer transmission of surveillance data between CDC and the state health departments. Each state health department used its existing computerized disease surveillance system to transmit specific data concerning each case of a notifiable disease. CDC technicians developed computer software to automate the transfer of data from the state to CDC.
In June 1985, CSTE passed a resolution supporting ESP as a workable system for electronic transmission of notifiable disease case reports from the states/territories to CDC. As the program was extended beyond the original group of states, EPO began to provide software, training and technical support to state health department staff overseeing the transition from hard-copy to fully automated transmission of surveillance data.
By 1989, all 50 states were using this computerized disease surveillance system, which was then renamed the National Electronic Telecommunications System for Surveillance (NETSS) to reflect its national scope. Core surveillance data are transmitted to CDC by the states and territories through NETSS. NETSS has a standard record format for data transmitted and does not require the use of a specific software program. The ability of NETSS to accept records generated by different software programs makes it useful for the efficient integration of surveillance systems nationwide.
Since 1999, the CDC, Epidemiology Program Office (EPO) has worked with CSTE, state and local public health system staff, and other CDC disease prevention and control program staff to identify information and information technology standards to support integrated disease surveillance. That effort is now focused on development of the National Electronic Disease Surveillance System (NEDSS), coordinated by CDC's Deputy Director for Integrated Health Information Systems.
NEDSS will electronically integrate and link together a wide variety of surveillance activities and will facilitate more accurate and timely reporting of disease information to CDC and the state and local health departments. Consistent with recommendations from our state and local surveillance partners as described in the 1995 report, Integrating Public Health Information and Surveillance Systems, NEDSS includes data standards, an internet based communications infrastructure built on industry standards. It also includes policy-level agreements on data access, sharing, burden reduction, and protection of confidentiality. To support NEDSS, CDC is supporting the development of an information system, the NEDSS Base System (NBS), which will use NEDSS technical and information standards, (http://www.cdc.gov/od/hissb/doc/NEDSSBaseSysDescriptioin.pdf). CDC will receive reports from the 57 respondents (50 state, 2 cities, and 5 territorial health departments) using the NEDSS (NETSS replacement) umbrella of systems, that includes the National Electronic Telecommunications System for Surveillance (NETSS).
There are no costs to the respondents other than their time to participate in the survey.
The table below outlines the annualized burden which consists of two components. The first component is "weekly reporting" (52 weeks annually). The second component is an end of year report titled "annual reporting". The two components collectively represent the estimated annualized hours for the submitting jurisdictions.Start Printed Page 43985

Autodesk University - Your Company Is Ready for BIM, but Are Your Employees? (and a bunch of other recordings)
In an encore presentation this year at AU, one of our ACAI stars, Cindy Baldwin, gave a presentation that was met with rave reviews. While I was talking to someone who missed it, I told them they could watch a recording of it from last year.
I thought I'd share it with you here and give a public service announcement that many classes can be watched at au.autodesk.com. It's just about impossible to sit in on every class, but watching the webcasts from this year, and previous years, is a great way to become more BIM proficient.
Here's the link for AU Virtual 2012: http://au.autodesk.com/?nd=au_player#1%-1
Here's the link for prior year classes: http://au.autodesk.com/?nd=classes
You can bookmark classes and watch them later. What a great way to make your daily commute or lunch hour more productive.
Instead of stressing about missing these great classes, you can make the AU experience last a lot longer and learn some great new skills.
Here's Cindy's great class and it will be very insightful for you if everyone in your firm isn't all on board with BIM.

Wes Montgomery - Tequila (FLAC+CUE)
Please keep seeding at least 3:1 ratio.
On two of the songs included on Tequila, "Tequila" and "The Thumb," Wes Montgomery had an opportunity to jam a bit while backed just by bassist Ron Carter, drummer Grady Tate and the congas of Ray Barretto. The other six selections utilize a string section arranged by Claus Ogerman but, even with a throwaway version of "What the World Needs Now Is Love," there are memorable renditions of "Bumpin' on Sunset" and "Insensatez" that uplift this album quite a bit beyond the guitarist's later AandM recordings.
Wes Montgomery (guitar); Claus Ogerman (arranger); Bernard Eichenm Arnold Eidus, Paul Gershman, Emanuel Green, Julius Held, Harry Lookofsky, Joe Malin, Gene Orloff (violin); Abe Kessler, Charles McCracken, George Ricci, Harvey Shapiro (cello); George Devens (vibraphone); Ron Carter (bass); Grady Tate (drums); Ray Barretto (congas).

Wonderful example of light-painting, dabs :)
Beautiful work… love how you achieved the reflection as well
Great work, I've been working on a series doing the same with the torch. 15 secs at F22, I used a tube at the end of the torch to isolate the light.

Blythewood closed the 2009 volleyball season with an impressive 22-5 record. The Bengals shared the Region 4-4A championship with Rock Hill (9-1 region record) and were 1-1 in the Class 4A state playoffs – losing to eventual state champion Dorman in the second round.
"We had a solid season. We all would have liked to finish with the State Championship title however, that was not in the cards this season," said coach Mary D. Hall.
"Although we had talent all the way across the board my team lacked consistency. I'm very proud of what the team accomplished this year and I look forward to great things to come. It's a learning and growing process. We will continue to capitalize on our strengths and minimize our weaknesses. We will set specific goals next season and attack them one at a time.
"Losing seniors is always a difficult thing to face and my seniors will most definitely be missed. Caleen Hawkins, Andrea Keesee, and Murphye Williams will be continuing their education and volleyball careers at the next level and I wish them all the best." Hawkins, the team's driving force at the setter position, outside hitter Keesee and outside hitter Murphye Williams are the departing seniors. Hawkins and junior middle hitter Courtney Williams were both named to the all-region and all-state teams. Hawkins, the region player of the year, was selected to play in the annual North-South All-Star game.
The regulars expected to return next season include Williams, defensive specialist Ashley Williams, right side hitter Victoria Harley, middle hitter Meredith Jones and Librero Courtney Person.

What You'll Get
Without coffee, society would literally crumble under the weight of unsound buildings erected by dozing construction workers and unfocused architects. Today's Groupon helps buttress the fragile social fabric: for $7, you get $15 worth of scones, sandwiches, coffee, and more at Carolyn's Coffee Connection in Kenosha.
Carolyn's talented baristas transform beans, leaves, and other ingredients into an array of carefully crafted drinks, which can be enjoyed solo or paired with a selection from a menu of cafe classics. Rely on a bombardment of fresh-brewed Intelligentsia coffee ($2.10 for a medium) or a coffee drink such as a cappuccino, macchiato, or latte ($3.64 each for a medium) to perk you up after a long night of stargazing, asteroid hunting, or moon taunting. Unbeaned beverages include green tea lattes ($3.18 for a medium), chai ($4.12 for a medium), and cold mocha frappes and fruit smoothies ($5.40 each for a medium). To celebrate its role as the most important and least candle-lit meal, breakfast is served all day, halting hunger with filling fare such as a quiche Lorraine, whose eggs, bacon, gruyere cheese, seasoning, and cream are transported mouthward on an all-butter crust ($4.50). Midday munchers can choose from hot sandwiches such as the roast beef and cheddar or cold classics such as smoked turkey, each served with chips and a choice of side ($6.95 each). Guests in search of greener fare can dive mouth-first into the spinach salad bursting with raisins, red onion, feta cheese, and balsamic vinaigrette ($6.95).
Just steps from the lakefront, Carolyn's perks up ears with regular live music in its events room, and couches invite coffee-sippers to curl up with a book, e-reader, or congressional subpoena. After blowing through War and Peace and downing their third latte, children can unwind in the carpeted playroom furnished with toys by Heim's Downtown Toy Store.
Seven Yelpers give Carolyn's Coffee Connection an average of three stars:
- It is a great place to relax or meet friends. – Kate G., Yelp, 09/12/10
The Fine Print
Promotional value expires Sep 3, 2011. Amount paid never expires. Limit 1 per person, may buy multiple as gifts. Groupon may be exchanged for gift card that can be used for multiple visits. Merchant is solely responsible to purchasers for the care and quality of the advertised goods and services.

Clinical trials are beginning for a bubonic plague vaccine, which officials say is a viable bioterror threat, at 10 sites nationwide.
The bubonic plague, one of the world's oldest known diseases, infects approximately a dozen people in the United States every year, according to the Centers for Disease Control, but its potential as a weapon of bioterrorism makes these tests critical as part of the national strategy to protect the country in the case of a terrorist attack.
To conduct the trial, researchers need 30 to 40 healthy individuals between the ages of 18 to 55. They are paid for their participation, according to a recent story by VolunteerTV. Volunteers can earn a total of $1600 for the entirety of the study, $100 for each visit to researchers.
"Everybody will get followed for a total of a year and a half, and we'll be looking at their antibody levels during that time," Dr. William Smith told VolunteerTV. "We're not exposing anyone to the plague."
Smith is the director of the New Orleans Center for Clinical Research and Volunteer Research Group, based at the University of Tennessee Medical Center in Knoxville, Tennessee.
"In the study so far, the majority of people have had minor side effects, the most common being injection site pain, redness, swelling," Smith said.
There is good news for those considering participation.
"This is a new vaccine that's being grown in bacteria so that it has less of a chance for a reaction, serious reaction," Dr. Smith said.
Infection with the plague can cause swollen glands with large skin marks. It can be extremely dangerous and has the potential to harm large numbers of people, especially if aerosolized.
"It's only fatal in 10 to 20 percent of people that are treated that have the classic Bubonic Plague," Dr. Smith said. "And, the ones that have the aerosolized, the Pneumonic Plague, unfortunately, the mortality rate is still in the 40 to 50 percent range, even with treatment."
Bubonic plague vaccine trials set
Clinical trials are beginning for a bubonic plague vaccine, which officials say is a viable bioterror threat, at 10 sites nationwide.

Plagiarism is the use of someone else's thoughts, words, ideas, or lines of argument in your own work without appropriate documentation (a parenthetical citation at the end and a listing in "Works Cited")-whether you use that material in a quote, paraphrase, or summary. It is a theft of intellectual property and will not be tolerated, whether intentional or not.
As an MSU Student, I pledge not to lie, cheat, steal, or help anyone else do so."
As students at MSU, we recognize that any great society must be composed of empowered, responsible citizens. We also recognize universities play an important role in helping mold these responsible citizens. We believe students themselves play an important part in developing responsible citizenship by maintaining a community where integrity and honorable character are the norm, not the exception.
Thus, We, the Students of Midwestern State University, resolve to uphold the honor of the University by affirming our commitment to complete academic honesty. We resolve not only to be honest but also to hold our peers accountable for complete honesty in all university matters.
We consider it dishonest to ask for, give, or receive help in examinations or quizzes, to use any unauthorized material in examinations, or to present, as one's own, work or ideas which are not entirely one's own. We recognize that any instructor has the right to expect that all student work is honest, original work. We accept and acknowledge that responsibility for lying, cheating, stealing, plagiarism, and other forms of academic dishonesty fundamentally rests within each individual student.
We expect of ourselves academic integrity, personal professionalism, and ethical character. We appreciate steps taken by University officials to protect the honor of the University against any who would disgrace the MSU student body by violating the spirit of this creed.
Written and adopted by the 2002-2003 MSU Student Senate.
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) is a federal anti-discrimination statute that provides comprehensive civil rights protection for persons with disabilities. Among other things, this legislation requires that all students with disabilities be guaranteed a learning environment that provides for reasonable accommodation of their disabilities. If you believe you have a disability requiring an accommodation, please contact the Disability Support Services in Room 168 of the Clark Student Center, (940) 397-4140.
The professor considers this classroom to be a place where you will be treated with respect as a human being - regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, national origin, religious affiliation, sexual orientation, political beliefs, age, or ability. Additionally, diversity of thought is appreciated and encouraged, provided you can agree to disagree. It is the professor's expectation that ALL students consider the classroom a safe environment.
All instructors in the Department have voicemail in their offices and MWSU e-mail addresses. Make sure you add your instructor's phone number and e-mail address to both email and cell phone lists of contacts.
Students are expected to attend all meetings of the classes in which they are enrolled.
University policies concerning academic dishonesty, classroom conduct and grounds for an instructor-initiated drop from the course will apply to this course. These policies may be reviewed in the student handbook.
All students seeking a Bachelor's degree from Midwestern State University must satisfy a writing proficiency requirement once they've 1) passed the 6 hours of Communication Core and and 2) earned 60 hours.
