This past week is our "get ready" week - since our classes start back for Spring semester the day after Martin Luther King Day. It occurred to me that the whole get ready process has changed considerably since I started teaching. At one time it was largely printing and handouts that you prepared, organizing the classroom, a new bulletin board design, double checking materials and so on. A lot of that is still part of the process but for several years now we have added online materials, course supplements, and in some cases entire online lessons and courses to the list of things we have to get ready. On our campus we were one of 3 areas to be early adopters of technology and especially online teaching over 10 years ago. One advantage to being a early adopter is that you can't really do anything wrong - or at least no one knows you are wrong. And the only way to go is up - so I encourage all new teachers to not fear being first - first to test new technology, first to push the administration just a bit more, first to push your students just a bit more. Back to technology - I am not a fan of technology just for the sake of having a new toy (although new toys are fun) - but I do feel that it is critical as an educator to search out and evaluate all technology related to my courses and to the careers my students will likely enter. I am not talking about just instructional technology or instructional delivery mechanisms but more about the technology that will be used on the job. There was a time when every (or almost every) teacher of agriculture came from a farm or some kind of agriculture background. With fewer farms we are seeing less of that and that lack of field experience can make it hard for a new teacher to know what tools they should be looking at. This is where your advisory committee can be a great help.
I need to relate the situation that I faced when I first started teaching. I was hired fresh out of college to teach at a county vocational school in a horticulture program that was not having much success. I did not come from a farming or horticulture background - ok we did have a vegetable garden but that was it. Nor was I involved with FFA in high school - my high school couldn't spell FFA - so to say I was "wet behind the ears" would not be an exaggeration. Then, 1 week before starting school, someone shared with me the New Jersey Nursery and Landscape Association Newsletter which included a "Letter to the Editor" about me - and it wasn't good. The author had never met me but he knew that the vocational school had hired a new teacher who had zero field experience and he was convinced that it spelled doom for the program. The letter was pretty true - especially about my lack of experience. Image my surprise when I received my advisory committee list and the first name on the list was the author of that letter. Talk about fear! This guy had been trained in the German apprenticeship system and, at the first meeting, insisted that I needed to spend two years teaching students to dig holes because they needed to learn to dig the perfect hole. Can you imagine how many students I would have if that was all I tried to teach them? Ultimately Franz became my biggest supporter - and this year I am serving as President of the New Jersey Nursery and Landscape Association - because during that same meeting Franz urged me to get involved with the professionals and their association -great advice! It is important to be active in NAAE and in your state teachers association but also be sure to make time for the association most aligned with your program - you won't regret it and your students will benefit.

Preparing Wat Phra Mahathat Woramahawihan for World Heritage nomination
via Bangkok Post, 10 July 2019: A feature on Wat Phra Mahathat Woramahawihan in Nakhon Si Thammarat and the preparations to submit a World Heritage nomination.
Wat Phra Mahathat has been on the tentative list of the Unesco World Heritage sites since 2012. At that time, the government allocated about 600 million baht in the budget, which was spent on improving the temple facilities, including building a new 3km road from a train station to the temple, moving electrical wires around the temple to underground and restoring the stupa. At present, the committee is preparing required papers and trying to build public awareness about the World Heritage status.
"Phra Borommathat Chedi is an important sacred site of Theravada Buddhism in the southern peninsula. It is among the eight great relics among stupas in Thailand and is known as one of the important Buddhist pilgrimage sites in the Kingdom," he said.
Legend has it that the grand stupa of the temple was originally built in the 6th century by King Sri Dhammasokaraja I, the first ruler of Nakhon Si Thammarat, to house Buddha's tooth relics. In the early 13th century, his successor, King Sri Dhammasokaraja V, rebuilt the stupa in the present Lankan-style, which is the bell-shape stupa, surrounded by 158 small pagodas.
The bell-shaped stupa underwent many renovations, including the latest restoration last year by the Fine Arts Department. Today, the central stupa is white and the top is shining gold. The official ceremony to celebrate the complete restoration project was organised in February this year.

In Tennis Today, we get a stark warning about Andy Murray's singles prospects, and the LTA have stepped up their bid to find the next British star.
What's on the site
The Wimbledon seeding formula has not been kind of world number two yet second seed Rafael Nadal, and he really isn't all that happy about it.
Novak Djokovic is pretty much unaffected, but he has backed Nadal's complaint.
Andy Murray, meanwhile, is all booked up to play in the men's doubles at Wimbledon, but he's having some second thoughts about entering the mixed doubles too.
On the WTA side of things, world number six Petra Kvitova has admitted she may not make Wimbledon at all as she continues to battle a wrist injury.
And one US legend has warned Serena Williams that she needs to get a move on if she's going to break Margaret Court's Grand Slam record.
What's in the news
John McEnroe has been assessing Andy Murrray's comeback, and the upshot is that he doesn't really know what to expect – both in the short term and long.
Murray is once again playing the doubles at Wimbledon, and he could win it, says McEnroe. Then again, he could have a nightmare.
"I think he has a chance to win it [the doubles at Wimbledon] but he could also lose first round," McEnroe said.
"That is the bottom line. It would be great if he won it, although even with that, I don't think you will be able to determine how he will be in singles, how high his ranking will go.
"I'm glad he is doing it, feeling it out right now, and we will see what happens.
"But there is no question with the way he plays, and returns, if he is into it competitive-wise, that he could go all the way – but even after that it is totally unpredictable.
"While Andy has talked about being pain free, doubles is obviously a different animal to singles. You can't really determine how the body reacts."
Elsewhere, the LTA have stepped up their bid to try and find the net Murray by announcing they will fund 96 new indoor courts over the next 10 years.
The project will cost £250m and will take the total in country to nearly 400.
"We want to break the perception that tennis is just a summer sport, or it's only for people in the south," said LTA Chief Scot Lloyd.
"With our climate, indoor facilities are crucial. We have lagged behind other European countries in terms of absolute numbers but we are blessed with the resources to do this and we want to inject pace into the process."

WDW Disney's Hollywood Studios Discussion ThreadP. 184: New destinations coming to Star Tours this December!
Users viewing this topic: No registered users and 2 guests
Discuss theme parks, roller coasters, and mules!
I got a cold when I was at Disney World in 2007. Can I sue them and demand $5 to cover the medicine I bought at the hotel?
Of course. You should also try to get some cash for your pain and suffering. Oh, and don't forget to sue the park for neglecting to tell you it was a disease ridden area.
Great idea, GREAT.
Wow really? How many people ride this every year and how many times do you hear about problems on it. Maybe if they read the warnings then there wouldn't be a problem.
As Greg Gutfeld from Fox News Red Eye said last night "America has become full of a bunch of whiny babies"
^Yup. Makes it kinda embarrassing how stupid some people can possibly be. It's a theme park. Unless the ride falls apart what are thinking. You can get this from the park website.
An amusement park ride is not going to cause a 16-year old kid to have a heart attack or a stroke (let alone both) unless they have some kind of pre-existing condition. Period.
Oh, and the fact that this woman and her family waited over THREE YEARS to take any kind of action whatsoever just screams "Crap, we need some money, who can we sue for it?" The government seriously needs to enact some kind of statute of limitations on how long you can wait to file a lawsuit after something occurs, because this is flat-out laughable.
I'm glad there are countries in the world where people have the right to bring cases to a trial, but I hate it when the system is abused like this. I don't care that they are only requesting a small sum of money, this is still ridiculous.
What the hell dose a heart attack and brain hemorrhage have to do with the ride design and operation?
"Disney failed to adequately warn of the risks " I agree, its not like they warn you in park maps, at the entrance of the queue line, and during the auto spiels.
What dose a heart attack and brain hemorrhage have to do with the safety restraints?
And this incident happened in 2005 and they are just now suing Disney? Must not have been THAT serious.

Hey Aiden, I hope to don't mind me dragging up ancient history, but I came across your thread asking about amazingbibletimeline or alternate resources, and I was wondering what you ended up using?
I've been trying to stitch together the bible with history and science, but never found a good way to present my findings. I was wondering whether amazingbibletimeline has done all the work for me, but they don't show enough online, and I can't find anyone who has tried it.
I'm sorry, but I never tried it either. We ended up only homeschooling for a few years before we put our daughter in school. It was too isolating to homeschool her in our location—a country in which homeschooling was mostly illegal, other activities were not offered in English, and the neighbor kids were always at school or school social events.
Athens, Greece?
Aiden replied to Aiden's topic in Parents' Forum Networking BoardUnfortunately, I'm not aware of any groups for kids that age. We homeschooled our daughter for our first year here, but then realized that she was coming out of her social shell and wanted friends--which we'd been unable to provide exactly because we couldn't find any English-language groups or classes for her to join, and the other English-speaking kids we knew were busy with school all day and often traveled or attended school-related events on the weekends. After a very lonely year, we put our daughter in school so she could spend time with other kids every day. We did make contact with other homeschoolers here, but their schedules were full enough that we weren't able to spend much time with them, either. We also made some friends through church, but again, the kids are just so busy ...
Speaking of houses...which would you remodel first?
Aiden replied to ksr5377's topic in The Chat BoardIt sounds like, in your situation, the bathroom is a functionality issue and the kitchen is a form issue (with some functionality implications, in that you don't want to invite people over). I'd pick function over form every time--do the bathroom first. I've lived in a bunch of houses that I haven't gotten to choose, and there's always something I don't like, something a tad embarrassing, sometimes something bad enough that if I had the choice, I'd rip it out and fix it ASAP. People understand. If you feel the need to comment or apologize for your kitchen: "Welcome to our retro kitchen! We want to update it, but it works fine and there were some other things we wanted to renovate first. In the meantime, enjoy your flashback to the 70s!"

OP, I'm glad you're getting some help. I wish I knew you in real life and was close enough ... You could talk to me about it.
Aiden started following Anyone using Tapestry of Grace Primer; RightStart math, LOE, Planner Recommendations?, Trauma and HS plans... and and 1 other
Planner Recommendations?
Aiden replied to happynurse's topic in PreK and KI love my planner from Plum Paper Products (an Etsy shop). It's customizable in most respects: page layout, how many months, which month to start with, optional sections, labels of your choice (or no labels) on the weekly pages.
If I lived near you, I'd bring you meals. If I knew you in real life--enough to know your contact information and your preferences--I'd be thinking about some other way to help you, possibly by hiring a cleaning service or mother's helper who was local to you. What you went through is a real, big deal. Don't be afraid to ask for whatever form of help you need. A lack of physical injuries does not mean that you don't need time and space to heal. If you have a good church family, they will understand that.
I'm so sorry you had to go through that. Thank you for helping others--it can be hard to hold it together in the moment and help rather than following the biological imperative to seek safety for yourself first, but you will always be glad that you were able to do that. I think that none of us know you well enough to advise you about whether or not to send your daughter to school right now. From what you've described, it sounds like she'll be fine either way. It comes down to what you need. You seem to believe that you need time alone to work through what has happened. I believe that's what I would need in a similar situation ... but then I remember another event in my life, nowhere near as traumatic as what you've gone through, but still traumatic, and I *did* need time alone to process. But I also desperately needed to be responsible for my daughter (then an infant, and my husband wasn't able to be with us at that time). Her need of me is what kept me from shutting down and disengaging from the world completely. But I did still need a lot of time alone, and I was able to have that because I was staying with my mother, who cared for my daughter when I couldn't. School may serve a similar purpose for you--caring for your daughter when you can't, giving you time to work toward your own psychological healing. Because your kids will be home in the evenings, you won't be able to completely retreat from the world and shut down. It may give you the best possible combination right now. And you know they'll be home with you all summer, so your goal is to work toward being able to manage that. On the other hand, if your personality is such that long periods of time alone will not help you, but will drive you deeper into depression or anxiety, then you should keep her home. You, your spouse, and your therapist are the ones in the best position to decide what will help you most. Either way, it is not selfish to seek what you need to get through this crisis. Even if it turns out that you send your daughter to school and it wasn't ideal for her, it's far more important for her (and your other kids) to have a healthy mother than to avoid whatever negatives come from sending her to school near the end of the school year.
Why has Sonlight fallen in popularity?
Aiden replied to Calming Tea's topic in K-8 Curriculum BoardI know because I'm still on the SL forums, though not as active there as I am here (and I'm not all that active here). The catalog has been mailed, I believe; some may have already received theirs. I'm not sure if the online catalog is available yet or not. The new products will be available for order on 1 April. More general comments, not specifically in response to Slache: We used Sonlight for preschool (P3/4) and preK (P4/5). Even at those young ages, I tweaked. And I did not at all like the K LA that we added to P4/5. And I used it at the younger ages rather than the older, so I felt that the books were a little too advanced for my child, but--especially after reading TWTM--I didn't want to delay Core A (intro to world cultures) until 1st and not start history until 2nd, and I didn't want to do their cycle--world cultures, 1-2 years of world history, 1-2 years of American history, repeat. I didn't get the impression that their materials would help me discuss the books with my daughter as she got older, and I need help with that. And as conservative a Christian as I am, I still find a good bit of their marketing statements and some of their books (some missionary ones) to be too fundamentalist for me. I was uncertain about supporting them financially for those reasons. And then there was a big kerfluffle when they attached specific grades to the cores. I had started considering slowing down our progression through the cores, but I realized that if I did that, then I'd end up teaching my daughter with products that were labeled a grade or two below where I considered her to be, and if she picked up on that, or if my husband's employer--who pays for our homeschool expenses--picked up on that, it would be trouble. And then I realized that these kerfluffles tend to happen regularly with Sonlight, and I decided that I couldn't trust them enough to plan for more than a year or two in advance, and I'm a serious long term planner--I'm fine with changing the plan from year to year, but I want to be able to tweak a plan, not be forced to create a new one because my product supplier radically changed something. So I switched to Tapestry of Grace, and I really like it (so far, at least, one year in). I do look at the Sonlight website and book lists, and I've pulled several of their books to add to our studies, or to have available for fun literature. I'll get the catalog this year--I really want to see these book descriptions I've been hearing about for years. Removing LA from the core makes me more likely to go back to SL at some point, but even then, it isn't that likely, because my overall concerns about the company haven't changed and because I like TOG, and it's easy enough to pick up additional books from the SL list if I want to. I think bittersweet is a good word to describe how I feel about Sonlight. They were my entry into homeschooling. Having their "perfectly laid out" plans, and still feeling the need to tweak them, taught me a lot about how I use curriculum--specifically, that although I like something that has a plan, it needs to be not so planned that it messes everything up when I tweak it! They gave me the confidence to branch out into something that fits me better, but that I would have found overwhelming had I started with it. But I still also have a little bit of the ick factor at some aspects of the company--even though I know Christians who are less conservative than I am who love Sonlight, and I still want to love them. I just ... don't.
International travel plans
Aiden replied to SKL's topic in The Chat BoardI'd go. Then again, I live in Athens, Greece, and honestly in a list containing the names Paris and Brussels, Athens kind of fits right in, if you know what I mean. So do some other cities that my husband has traveled to recently for work, and cities where friends live, and cities where we intend to visit over the course of the next couple of years. We won't let the terrorists stop us from living our lives, and since we can't predict where they'll strike next, it's not like we could travel at all (or even stay in the city where we live) and be certain we won't be there at the worst possible moment. So we take reasonable precautions, and we live our lives. Be very aware of your surroundings when you travel. Have a large amount of cash easily accessible, possibly even on your person (though be careful not to show that it's there, and consider using a purse/bag/camera bag with discreet security features, like those found in Safepac bags). Register your trip with STEP; it won't help in the early moments of a crisis, but it'll at least let the embassy know to find you and check that you're ok, and it means that they'll notify you of any security alerts that come up. Pay attention to travel warnings about specific places--I tend to ignore the ones that cover entire continents, as that's just too general to be useful. Take reasonable precautions, and enjoy your trip!

Aiden replied to brynndolyn's topic in The Chat BoardI've only been to the UK once. We spent 5 or 6 days in London and didn't get to see everything we wanted, because it's just such a wonderful place to visit and so much to see, but we thoroughly enjoyed everything we did see and do, especially the Tower of London and the Churchill War Rooms. I highly recommend the hop on hop off bus--the company we used included a river cruise that could get you to Greenwich, though we only took it from Big Ben to the Tower of London. I'm very familiar with the jet lag of transatlantic travel, though, and I guarantee you--you do NOT want to get there in the morning after a redeye flight and drive a long way in an unfamiliar car on unfamiliar roads on what will feel like the wrong side of the road. I know it's the trip of a lifetime, but you won't enjoy it if you spend the entire time exhausted. Build in some down time or you'll regret all the hours you spent pushing yourself to go, go, go, and not enjoying any of it because all you wanted to do at the time was rest but you kept pushing because you just had to get it all in. That was the way my father structured our childhood vacations, and I rarely enjoyed any of it except the evenings at the pool in the hotel. As an adult, my husband and I now are careful to structure our leisure trips as a combination of what we call expeditions (go, go, go, see it all!) and vacations (relax around the pool, sleep late, enjoy leisurely meals at nice restaurants). Trips that are all vacation are boring. Trips that are all expedition are exhausting--we may see it all, but we don't absorb any of it; we end up with cool pictures and few memories. You're planning a major expedition, and if you're anything like me, you'll regret not building in some vacation. For 10 days, I'd pick one home base, maybe 2, and do what I could do from there--mostly staying in the city where I was staying, with a day trip or two for something really special. That's what we did with London--most days in the city, with one day trip to Oxford and one half day trip to the Harry Potter studio.
"Stood to his feet" --- is this a common expression?
Aiden replied to KarenNC's topic in The Chat BoardYes, this. You would "stand to your feet" for a dignitary, a bride walking down the aisle, or to show respect for the reading of God's Word in a very conservative church. You would "stand to your feet" if you were sitting and someone said something that you felt compelled, on principle, to stand up against: for example, something like, "After Bob heard Joe make the awfully racist comment, Bob slowly stood to his feet, looked Joe in the eye, and said ..." You would not "stand to your feet" because you needed to get up and go somewhere, for example. Edited to add: This was common usage where I grew up in the Southeast. I don't recall if I heard it in any of the many other places I've lived.
Anyone using Tapestry of Grace Primer; RightStart math, LOE
Aiden replied to purestone's topic in PreK and KI skipped TOG Primer and went straight to TOG year 1 with my 5yo K daughter. We only did the history readings and some of the literature ones, and I did substitute a few history titles because the recommended ones were a bit advanced for her. Overall I've enjoyed TOG year 1. I'm very excited about year 2--I looked at all the history books in the list for it, and they look to be on her level and interesting. We'll probably hold off on the read aloud books until our next cycle again. We're also using LOE Foundations and I love it. It's a wonderfully logical and incremental approach to reading and handwriting that really works well. We're almost done with B and plan to continue to C in the summer, though I think we're at the point of dropping the pace to 1/2 lesson/day just because it takes a while.
JAWM: why are we such a mobile society?
Aiden replied to EmilyGF's topic in The Chat BoardOP: I'm so sorry. It's hard to lose friendships, no matter which one of you is moving. As for the rest, I'm with the expat crowd. I don't have a best friend anymore; I haven't since I moved away from my hometown my junior year in high school. I have people with whom I am friendly in whatever location I'm in at the time. I move every 2-3 years, and many of the people I meet also move that often. Those who don't move that often are not always willing to open their hearts to those of us whom they know will move on a schedule. It's self-preservation on their part, and it's totally understandable. It's hard all around and is one of the factors that has me occasionally re-evaluating whether or not this lifestyle is a good one for my family.

To me music is an interest and beginning an independent document label was my primary top priority in life and something that I might not release. It was something I needed to peruse in order to really feel that I have at least offered it a shot in life. Relying on what your intentions are as an artist, actually launching your music is not something that is that difficult in any way! I confess that starting a record tag can be effort, but the effort is worth it if you can have the frame of mind in place of doing it for the love of your music and interest, as opposed to simply earn money out of it. By launching your own music you will eventually acquire exposure to a worldwide target market and have the ability to reach out to the people who will certainly additionally appreciate your music as long as you did making it. I have several close friends who enjoy making music like I do.
Perhaps in a feeling it is true, yet with the admen in the music market and the tools we contend hand on the Internet these days it has made launching your extremely own music the method onward! There is no factor that you cannot launch your own music today. You do not require to be signed to a document label in order to do so however many of us are not aware of this. Some of us understand that it is feasible to come close to iTunes individually to launch our music, but there is so many more electronic download shops around on the web to push your music out to although iTunes is responsible for probably around 70% of all downloads. This is where the music representatives enter the image. You can get your music distributed to a multitude of shops around the world by utilizing the appropriate distributors that are offered to us online.
The brand-new electronic age and also the Internet have made it feasible for people like me, my good friend, and also most of all you, a chance to release our own music around the world individually. Best of all it has actually made it feasible to launch your very own music without actually being signed to a document label. till recently I never ever released how this was even possible. My buddy really did not even realize how this was even feasible. We can currently utilize on-line music representatives to release our music and also cut out all the middlemen. There are numerous serious music representatives available on the internet that are all very good to use, many of which will operate in a different concept on how they take their cut from your music launches.

Investigation of measurement invariance (MI) commonly assumes correct specification of dimensionality across multiple groups. Although research shows that violation of the dimensionality assumption can cause bias in model parameter estimation for single-group analyses, little research on this issue has been conducted for multiple-group analyses. This study explored the effects of mismatch in dimensionality between data and analysis models with multiple-group analyses at the population and sample levels. Datasets were generated using a bifactor model with different factor structures and were analyzed with bifactor and single-factor models to assess misspecification effects on assessments of MI and latent mean differences. As baseline …

Institutions of higher education often tout that they are developing students to become lifelong learners. Evaluative efforts in this area have been presumably hindered by the lack of a uniform conceptualization of lifelong learning. Lifelong learning has been defined from institutional, economic, socio-cultural, and pedagogical perspectives, among others. This study presents the existing operational definitions and theories of lifelong learning in the context of higher education and synthesizes them to propose a unified model of college students' orientation toward lifelong learning. The model theorizes that orientation toward lifelong learning is a latent construct which manifests as students' likelihood to engage …

ABSTRACT This study investigated the possibility of item parameter drift (IPD) in a calculus placement examination administered to approximately 3,000 students at a large university in the United States. A single form of the exam was administered continuously for a period of two years, possibly allowing later examinees to have prior knowledge of specific items on the exam. An analysis of IPD was conducted to explore evidence of possible item exposure. Two assumptions concerning items exposure were made: 1) item recall and item exposure are positively correlated, and 2) item exposure results in the items becoming easier over time. Special …

Although models for describing longitudinal data have become increasingly sophisticated, the criticism of even foundational growth curve models remains challenging. The challenge arises from the need to disentangle data-model misfit at multiple and interrelated levels of analysis. Using posterior predictive model checking (PPMC)—a popular Bayesian framework for model criticism—the performance of several discrepancy functions was investigated in a Monte Carlo simulation study. The discrepancy functions of interest included two types of conditional concordance correlation (CCC) functions, two types of R2 functions, two types of standardized generalized dimensionality discrepancy (SGDDM) functions, the likelihood ratio (LR), and the likelihood ratio difference test …

This simulation study compared the utility of various discrepancy measures within a posterior predictive model checking (PPMC) framework for detecting different types of data-model misfit in multidimensional Bayesian network (BN) models. The investigated conditions were motivated by an applied research program utilizing an operational complex performance assessment within a digital-simulation educational context grounded in theories of cognition and learning. BN models were manipulated along two factors: latent variable dependency structure and number of latent classes. Distributions of posterior predicted p-values (PPP-values) served as the primary outcome measure and were summarized in graphical presentations, by median values across replications, and by …

A simulation study was conducted to explore the robustness of general factor mean difference estimation in bifactor ordered-categorical data. In the No Differential Item Functioning (DIF) conditions, the data generation conditions varied were sample size, the number of categories per item, effect size of the general factor mean difference, and the size of specific factor loadings; in data analysis, misspecification conditions were introduced in which the generated bifactor data were fit using a unidimensional model, and/or ordered-categorical data were treated as continuous data. In the DIF conditions, the data generation conditions varied were sample size, the number of categories per …

A simulation study was conducted to explore the influence of partial loading invariance and partial intercept invariance on the latent mean comparison of the second-order factor within a higher-order confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) model. Noninvariant loadings or intercepts were generated to be at one of the two levels or both levels for a second-order CFA model. The numbers and directions of differences in noninvariant loadings or intercepts were also manipulated, along with total sample size and effect size of the second-order factor mean difference. Data were analyzed using correct and incorrect specifications of noninvariant loadings and intercepts. Results summarized across …

Westmount buzzes with summer activities
By Marilynn Vanderstaay
While it may look as if everything has folded up for the summer in Westmount, there are still many community-based activities to keep you busy…
Check out the group exhibition in Victoria Hall
If you haven't had the opportunity, or even if you have, the group exhibition is one of the activities to tour until August 8. Pack, or pick up at a local eatery, a picnic lunch and enjoy it in the air conditioned Gallery at Victoria Hall, 4626 Sherbrooke St. W.
Westmount resident and exhibitor Harvey Corn was very pleased with the outcome of the vernissage last week. Until last Wednesday, Harvey was an amateur photographer starting professionally in his second career… the first of many, he says, since retirement. Although he was not the only artist to sell a piece of their work, Harvey was delighted to see the red dots on two of his photos and to learn from exhibition curator Victoria LeBlanc that he had sold two photographs.

At the vernissage, I met Westmounter Wendy Corn, CEO of the Mount Sinai Hospital. Always looking for an interesting story, after I asked her if there is a something going on, Wendy told me about the upcoming fundraiser. There is still time for you to participate. Westmounters are invited to rally together for Mount Sinai Center by registering for or sponsoring its annual Car Rally scheduled for Sunday, August 16.
A car rally is not a race. The car rally is similar to a scavenger hunt, but in a car. At the start, each team of two, a driver and a navigator, is given a navigation guide which contains a route that is decoded by figuring out the clues. There are also questions to answer in order to collect points, all of which will be added up towards winning one of three outstanding prizes. At the end of the day, the driving team that gets the most correct answers are the team that wins the rally.
The rally will begin with breakfast at 9 a.m.at Mount Sinai Hospital, 5690 Cavendish Boul., in Côte Saint-Luc. Participants will be given the navigation guide and off they will go. The players will stop for a lunch break en route. Along the course there are checkpoints where players will participate in fun competitive games. The rally will end when the players arrive at the end point where they will enjoy an early dinner around 4:30 p.m.
The prizes will be awarded at the dinner by event. Co-chairs David Bruker, vice president of UPS Stores in Montreal, and Pasquale Scotti, owner of Lamborghini dealerships, who will also give brief presentations. And the players will boast and perhaps commiserate about the event.
If the rally is something you would be interested in participating in, go to sinairally.com
Make your team, raise your registration fee, which covers all the fun in the event, and enjoy the day while making a difference in the lives of the patients of the hospital.

The Library atrium features an AWE display in front of a sample of works of the writers being celebrated, ranging from Stephen Leacock to the winners of 2014 Quebec Writers' Federation Awards. The exhibition also includes DVDs of film adaptations such as the 2010 movie Barney's Version.
In addition, the public is invited to contribute suggestions for the project as well as dialogue about the idea of a subsequent writers' museum at the Atwater Library. Email comments and ideas are invited to be sent to project coordinator Elise Moser at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Book Fun at the Atwater Library

That visit to the Atwater Library exhibition could also include a shopping spree in the library Book Sale Room where you can pick up bargains on gently used books and DVD's.

Thanks to Launch Pad Gallery in Yokohama, Japan, I have the opportunity to teach a fun bookbinding workshop! On Sun, Sept 30 from 2 - 5PM I'll be at the gallery with all the materials necessary for visitors to begin creating their own small art books. I found the long-stitch bookbinding technique to be beautifully decorative, very functional, and reasonably easy to complete. Each of my map paged journals were constructed using the long-stitch bookbinding design. There is no charge for this workshop, "Reading Between the Lines" Book Arts Exhibition is a wonderful collaborative show combining artists from St Helens, England and those of us in Art Byte Critique in the Tokyo Bay area. Come see the amazing variety of artbooks and stay for the workshop! Looking forward to seeing you on the 30th!

The combined efforts of our programming committee and the CSI Chicago Foundation resulted in maximum attendance (175+) on Tuesday, March 26, 2019 at Maggiano's Chicago. It was a great night for our Chicago Construction Community to share important building code information while also giving back.
The night lead off with three exciting announcements from the CSI Chicago Foundation regarding their two primary initiatives that give back to our community - Rebuilding Together and Student Scholarships.
The CSI Chicago Foundation announcements were followed by Chicago's Building Commissioner Judy Frydland and Deputy Commissioner Grant Ullrich's presentation which provided a much anticipated overview and update on the Department of Buildings first comprehensive Chicago Building Code update in over a half century. The overview/updates included a brief history of the Chicago Building Code, highlights of the proposed code changes and why it's good for Chicago, the process involved with updating the code, and key changes that will occur with the code updates.
Key highlights from Judy and Grant's presentation included:
Thank you to everyone who attended to make this a successful event for our Chicago Construction Community.
